Patch 6.08 Notes:
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/9325d2a5dae2ac34b9f970c803848e8fb1c3aaf7

[torn drum]

when the servers be up will I be able to do a free transfer to the new oce server or will "Tonberry" become one of the oce servers?

[pulsar kayak]

server transfer isn't up after maint right? it's the day after tmr?

[viscid lake]

There's a period of free transfers, and the five worlds are all new.

[leaden ginkgo]

So

[torn drum]

Ohhh okies awesome! oh will there be a wait after maint b4 u can transfer?

[leaden ginkgo]

If I made one character before that had the preferred xp bonuses, can i get it on this new one? It did say the new data center will have it

[viscid lake]

I'm reading just under 24 hours from now, plus probably a bit on top of that as everyone spams the transfer application when it opens.

[torn drum]

mm okies. Thanks! 😄

[daring vale]

have the sales opened back up again?

[whole ember]

I guess this is more asking for an opinion, but theres a certain minion you get from completing Endwalker MSQ. I was just wondering for those who know what I'm talking about, would it still be considered distasteful to use this minion? I'm trying to be respectful of other players and don't know if it should be considered a spoiler or not.

[spice imp]

are macros useful for ninja mudras?

i hate screwing them up because of my fingers

[dim ridge]

the blue one or the white one? blue one seems pretty safe to use. I barely ever see the white one rn. less a spoiler for sprouts but

so when it says the 'channeling' animation is removed, does it mean the dragoon tether itself or the 'giving the tether' animation?

[tropic flame]

its easier to learn how to do your mudras than make a macro for them

maybe put them on buttons furhter away from each other or click on them

[remote lintel]

i would say it's fine to use since new players won't know their appearance and the name is a throwaway

[tropic flame]

or you could alternatively get a plugin to help with that

[remote lintel]

the only useful ninja macro is a shukuchi one

[jade quartz]

Nope

[daring vale]

.

[plain frigate]

what time is 14 back in stores?

[solemn jewel]

[daring vale]

oh fuck i was 2 hours off

its gonna be 4am 0_0

[oak moon]

I think in about an hour 30

[halcyon knoll]

is this one of those patches that open at the specified time or could it open before?

[oak moon]

I might be very wrong though

[daring vale]

yeah hour and a half

cuz my time its 230 and i converted it and its 4am when it opens

[pulsar kayak]

question about getting the wedding dress

if i buy the "diamond package"

do i actually have to apply for the cermoeny etc?

or i can just group up with the other person who also bought it

and do the quest to get the dres?

[strong elbow]

Hey the starter will be available in a few hours

[uncut igloo]

is homeworld transfer effective as soon as servers are up?

[boreal storm]

📌

[strong elbow]

Does anyone know the total price?

[boreal storm]

Starter is $20

[strong elbow]

After tax?

[boreal storm]

No

[jovial quarry]

You don’t have to follow through with the whole thing to get the dress. You get the dress before the ceremony. Both people need the platinum plan however if you want the plat items.

[pulsar kayak]

got it

do i have to do this ?

or i just buy the item from mogstation.

get it from letter mog

do the quest?

[boreal storm]

Why wouldn’t you do the wedding

Get the rest of the stuff you bought

[jovial quarry]

Acquire plan bracelets, do quest up to the point where they give you the glamour, then you can stop there. But yeah the platinum plan does give a two seater mount if you do the whole ceremony.

Stopping early gives only the clothes

[pulsar kayak]

feel a bit awkward to do the ceremony haha

[solemn jewel]

dont u also get a minion? or is that just for guests

[pulsar kayak]

how long isit

[solemn jewel]

not too long

[boreal storm]

Minutes

[solemn jewel]

theres a contract sign option

or a hug

[pulsar kayak]

is there a GM?

[solemn jewel]

no need to kissy

no

[pulsar kayak]

ah okay

[coral pelican]

hey guys, i really wanna try clearing TEA. where's a good place for me to start looking for people to do that with?

[solemn jewel]

Do a tax purpose wedding, just do the contract sign option and meme on it

[cosmic pilot]

Is there a way to force ||Old Sharlayan|| bgm to night ver?

[pulsar kayak]

wait

so i can buy it for my partner too?

they dn't have to buy it?

[keen flower]

ye

[pulsar kayak]

a thanks

[boreal storm]

That’s 40 bucks ain’t it

[keen flower]

yeah but easy way for mount

[boreal storm]

Ehh it’s your money dude

[solemn jewel]

yes

[modest quail]

Is the game back on steam for purchase?

[solemn jewel]

Convert the time to ur timezone

[modest quail]

[strong elbow]

Is there a count down for maintenance ending?

[jade quartz]

use the !maint command in #kupo-bot-spam

[gloomy mortar]

Summoner heal seems to be so weak above level 70; should you take it off the hotbar?

[ruby herald]

Hi. I just started Eureka content so I can get that sweet elemental fending armor, but is it achievable if I do the eureka content as a healer class? or is it better to staart as a tank class from start to finish?

[jovial quarry]

Yeah Physick is useless on SMN. Probably for the best to just remove it from your bars.

[halcyon knoll]

is the server opening at the specified time or could open before?

[gloomy mortar]

I was playing Praetorium, and all of a sudden my Summoner options to summon Garuda/Ifrit/Titan popped up. What happened? Throughout the dungeon they were inactive buttons, and at level 50 I thought they didnt work, but they did. it happened twice.

[cursive ridge]

they pop up after your aethercharge runs out

might be confusing if you leveled before endwalker, but that's how low level smn works, aethercharge is your demi button but without the damage cooldowns and without summoning anything

[jovial quarry]

If I recall correctly, you don’t have to use the job you want the armor for. As in you can take your healer if you want and still get the tank armor.

[gloomy mortar]

Was Precious Brilliance related to it? I hit it, not clear what exactly it does, then a few mins later, the 3 summon buttons went active

[cursive ridge]

precious brilliance is what you get for summoning them

[gloomy mortar]

I haven't played summoner since Augemted Crystarium gear

[boreal storm]

Read your tool tips, seriously

[cursive ridge]

aethercharge = demi-bahamut/demi-phoenix for low level

the core concept is the same

[leaden ginkgo]

how do i make smn summons smaller on my screen

[cursive ridge]

/petsize all small

[leaden ginkgo]

ty

[gloomy mortar]

You're welcome

[steep egret]

stealing credit

[leaden ginkgo]

ily all

[cursive ridge]

personally i use medium size, not as big as the default, not as tiny as small

[steep egret]

https://tenor.com/view/bird-thief-escape-gif-18106871

i name thee, thief!

[leaden ginkgo]

hmm i’ll test them out

[gloomy mortar]

How do I stop that video from playing on repeat?

[fast hull]

I like smol titan though

[boreal storm]

It’s a gif

[steep egret]

do you even discord?

[restive sand]

were the patch notes released yet (6.08)

[cursive ridge]

yes, pins

[boreal storm]

📌

That confirms it, people ignore the lodestone channel

[restive sand]

srry

[steep egret]

gifs stop playing when the window isn't in focus, not sure if thats a setting somewhere though

[verbal moon]

So I have a PC account, I want to add in PS5 as well so purchased endwalker on PS5, I go to log-in on the PS5 and it tells me I don't have a service account (??). I've purchased Endwalker on PC what else do I have to do? Their support page doesn't provide any guidance.

[warped nest]

You need to buy again

[verbal moon]

I did

[warped nest]

Did you buy Starter too?

[steep egret]

do you own the base game on PS5?
Endwalker doesn't give you ARR/HW

[boreal storm]

They couldn’t have

[restive sand]

which job was buffed the most

[boreal storm]

Sales were down

[restive sand]

dragoon and ninja?

[boreal storm]

Dude

You have the patch notes, read

[restive sand]

actually looks like paladin got buffed a lot

[verbal moon]

Hmm I thought that might be the case but it just shows "download" on those. I'll look into it further thank you!

[steep egret]

youll have to wait until sales of the base game resume, then buy starter edition

[modest igloo]

still prolly worse than DRK in DPS but we'll see

[warped nest]

At first glance, yeah, everything seems alright

[steep egret]

i believe there is somewhere on mogstation which lists your ownership on all platforms

in a table or something

Service Account status, near the bottom

[verbal moon]

Ahhhh that's it

The base game is still on hold, so I can't purchase it.

[steep egret]

yup, should have waited until sales resumed then buy complete edition

[verbal moon]

ffs I already have an account and using it.

It's not like I'm adding to their playerbase.

[steep egret]

licenses are platform specific, because each platform has their own store and takes a cut

it is what it is

Sony wont like you buying the game on PC because its cheaper, then Square gives you free access to the game on PS4/5

[verbal moon]

Sigh, I wish they didn't keep selling Endwalker as a standalone then.

[steep egret]

NO

it exists, so current players, can upgrade

from starter, or if they were on Stormblood/shadowbringers

they were already subscribed/paying customers on that platform

not ideal, sure, as people who are subbed elsewhere, can't change, but they dont have a way to verify what you already have on storefronts, so this was the best solution

[boreal storm]

You can’t use dlc for a game you don’t own, they tell you so when you’re going to purchase EW

[steep egret]

read the fineprint in the future, the product description says what it includes

IMPORTANT:
• This product is a FINAL FANTASY® XIV expansion pack that requires FINAL FANTASY® XIV Online Starter Edition (A Realm Reborn) to play.
• All editions of the game require user registration. All editions of the game other than the Free Trial require an active paid subscription to play.
• This product also includes Stormblood and Shadowbringers expansion packs.

[verbal moon]

Yes, the issue is I was able to download (and it shows as installable) for the base game.

[boreal storm]

You didn’t

[sullen vine]

does the starter edition also come onto the steam store in less than an hour?

[remote lintel]

[sullen vine]

sorry^_^"

[verbal moon]

Would you like a screenshot?

[steep egret]

this is how a lot of storefonts work, if you buy an addon to the game, it allows you to download the base game, because that is required to even play the addon, but if you dont own the base game, well you can't play it
either way, it doesn't matter, the details was in the product description, not much we can do if you didn't read it

sounds more like a sony thing, but i dunno, i dont own a PS4/5

[cursive ridge]

dont take it to mean we're happy with your situation, we're just explaining how it is, nothing we can do about it

[steep egret]

yup, its just how it is, mistakes were made, learn from it, buy starter when its released again, and you can play, fixed!

[verbal moon]

Thanks, yes I’m annoyed and I understand, frustrated I’ll probably have spent an extra 40

[gloomy mortar]

Make a post on reddit and see if someone wants to buy it. There are several posts like your issue, so it happens

[steep egret]

starter edition is usually half the price of the complete edition

[verbal moon]

Ah ok, in that case no biggie

[steep egret]

so its not tooo bad

[boreal storm]

90% sure You can’t transfer PS4 stuff

[verbal moon]

I’m not poor so I’m going to stop my bitching haha.

[leaden ginkgo]

Hello.
Question regarding Fish that require weather chains to spawn.

Suppose a fish has the requirement:
Fog/Clouds -> Heat Wave.

Will the fish spawn during the Fog/Clouds, the Heat Wave, or both?

[verbal moon]

Thanks for the guidance!

[cursive ridge]

at the end of the chain usually

[cursive ridge]

https://ff14fish.carbuncleplushy.com/ use this website, it does all the tracking for you

[leaden ginkgo]

Ah, okay. Thank you!

[steep egret]

actually, here, starter is 1/3 the price of complete edition, even better
thats PC thou, not sure what PS4/5 is

[boreal storm]

Should be the same

[cursive ridge]

regional pricing do be wild (especially on steam, lots of differences there)

[late egret]

isn't the sale supposed to start today? January 25?

[boreal storm]

📌

[steep egret]

yup

[late egret]

24 minutes to go

[fast hull]

? What's with the pin and the constant spam of it

[steep egret]

can we have a bot track a pin counter

[steep egret]

you know that discord has pinned messages, yeah?

[lucid hornet]

does endwalker on top of a free trial include 30 days?

[fast hull]

Also kinda sad that they remove the dragon chain thing

[steep egret]

important repeated stuff is pinned for ppl to find

[boreal storm]

No

[steep egret]

hence,

[craggy tinsel]

When does world transfer open up?

[lucid hornet]

thanks

[steep egret]

https://tenor.com/view/check-the-pins-kowalski-penguin-gif-20219688

[craggy tinsel]

Like what time

[boreal storm]

Only base game gives free 30 days

[late egret]

anyone got IP of the upcoming oceania servers?

[outer star]

So I've been debating it with myself as to whether the crafted combat gear pentamelded outshines the 590 parts

[robust crow]

it does not

10 ilvls is a lot

[outer star]

So it's safe to invest my weeklies for more radiant parts

[boreal storm]

Especially since it can get augmented

[forest sage]

bis for some tanks build has crafted pentamelded ring

[robust crow]

uh, what else are you using astronomies on

[elfin edge]

a pentameld ring might be decent compared to 590, but only if you need the pentameld stats I think

[outer star]

I only got the radiant helm and saving the rest for the time being

[robust crow]

that'd only be because raid/tome rings are unique

exception cases exist

[outer star]

Ideally you'd run a savage and augmented ring

[craggy tinsel]

@steep egret thank you for your pin reaction to this, but the pins don't tell me when world transfer opens up

They tell me when digital sales come up again

[boreal storm]

Opening of OCE servers
People need transfers to do that

[outer star]

Does the patch notes mention anything about that?

[elfin edge]

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/c869743ff4ac134ff2e6ea23a56e00471b385880

[outer star]

May wanna check into that

[elfin edge]

has the time it opens

[steep egret]

2nd ping refers to transfer opening up, the web address, then there is a link to the specific page

[craggy tinsel]

I see that now, thank you

[steep egret]

we'll be resuming the service on Wednesday, January 26, 2022 (JST).

[narrow jay]

If you follow the provided link to the Lodestone article, it has more content in it than simply the attached image snip, including a heading titled Recommencement of the Home World Transfer Service.

[craggy tinsel]

Also, I guess just for future note, since that was not clear to me and may not be for others

[oblique yew]

why does a 90mb patch require 6 hours of downtime?

[craggy tinsel]

Add a number for where it appears in the pin list

So if you had reacted 📌 2️⃣ I'd probably have realized which one you meant

[narrow jay]

Perhaps because of the full integration of the OCE datacenters into the game network.

[elfin edge]

And I assume they're going to test stuff before making servers live as well

[narrow jay]

Sometimes maintenance is to add content to the game software.

Sometimes it's to add or make adjustments to hardware.

[boreal storm]

Also they gotta re-enable sales, make sure that’s not being funky

[oblique yew]

what sales?

[narrow jay]

The sale of the base game, for example.

[oblique yew]

the new expansion?

oh

ok

[boreal storm]

This is why we yell about pins

[lucid hornet]

I am currently playing the free trial with the starter edition and want to play endwalker. So I just need to buy endwalker once its available and some gametime to play, right?

[boreal storm]

You’re not playing starter then

Free trial ≠ starter

[steep egret]

free trial, is not starter edition
you pay for starter edition, and that requires a subscription

[elfin edge]

do you mean like you're in the 30 day free sub section of your starter edition?

[lucid hornet]

my steam tells me that I own the starter edition tho, did I accidently level on an account that i cant use for endwalker? 😐

[steep egret]

did you pay for it!

[lucid hornet]

Nah, I bought the starter around 2017

[boreal storm]

Then you’re not on trial

[steep egret]

otherwise, login to your mogstation account, and check if you actually OWN starter edition

it has to be on your current account

[steep egret]

then you must be paying a subscription

unless you are playing on a new account, different to the one you bought it on in 2017

or you bought starter, and never registered the key

[lucid hornet]

I am not paying a subscription currently but I own the starter edition afaik
https://i.imgur.com/n0MJCT3.png

[coarse lagoon]

but you're able to currently play?

[boreal storm]

Then you just need EW, and to register the codes

[steep egret]

but if they arent paying a subscription

that makes no sense

[lucid hornet]

yeah, Ive spent the last 2 weeks leveling a bard

[narrow jay]

I wouldn't obsess over it.

[steep egret]

check, your mogstation account

[narrow jay]

The question asked has been answered.

[lucid hornet]

wit the steam account the starter edition is on

[narrow jay]

If they suddenly stop being able to play the game, then they'll know. If not, then we'll never know, and it won't actually affect our lives.

[steep egret]

well we have no idea what you've somehow done

[lucid hornet]

aight, gonna check my mogstation account and see whats what, thanks for the advice

[steep egret]

so you'll need to figure it out

there maybe a key attached to Steam, for the game, check if the game has any CD keys on it

[velvet nymph]

Is the new dc gonna be open when the game comes back up?

[steep egret]

if it does, you could try register that key on ur mogstation account, and thatll give you starter edition, properly

then all you need to do is buy endwalker

otherwise, if you dont have starter edition on ur account, you will have to buy complete edition, to get everything

mogstations > Server account status

that page will show ur registered editions at the bottom

if it just shows "buy" for everything, then you own none of them

or at least it isn't registered, so go back to my thing about steam keys

[obsidian patio]

Yes

[velvet nymph]

Alright and the char creation will be available but not the transfer?

[plain frigate]

[unkempt nest]

[steep egret]

google will convert it instantly

example

[tight dust]

so weird, nothing on steamyet

[daring vale]

its been 4 mins, they probably havent updated the pages yet

[hot eagle]

probably not on steam yet again since steam only updates their store like once a day

[plain frigate]

so if i beat the free trial do i buy the complete edition?

[steep egret]

yes

[daring vale]

yes

so is free trial opening back up too then

[steep egret]

no

[solemn jewel]

no

[steep egret]

and let the servers get destroyed again?

theyll probabyl have enough with all the ppl buying the game

let alone free trials

[daring vale]

yeah thats what i thought

lol

[simple niche]

could anyone send over the link to buy online? ( not steam )

[steep egret]

depends on your region

[simple niche]

north america

[steep egret]

and where you are playing, Steam, or not steam

[daring vale]

rip not being able to afford a sub XD

[boreal storm]

Go on the SE site?

[steep egret]

then just google, Square enix store, NA

[cyan trench]

https://store.na.square-enix-games.com/en_US/product/696504/final-fantasy-xiv-online-complete-edition

[tight dust]

still can't find anything for aus

[coarse lagoon]

it's ok for me to register my key now after buying the complete edition? and then I can enter my friends referral code once maintenance is over as long as I enter referral code before my 1st free month of subscription is up?

[steep egret]

https://www.square-enix.com/
^ go here to choose region for the right store

[leaden ginkgo]

Hello Ff14 community 👋
Im new to the game and i have a question based on Dlcs.
Since i played a few days now on the trial version and bought already the endwalker collectors edition, do i have to buy only the starter kit for 15€ or does Endwalker not include older dlcs, so i have to buy the complete edition?

Im very exited to take my first step into the game and looking for guidance.

Cheers ✌️

[boreal storm]

Starter

[solemn jewel]

Ew includes stormblood and shadowbringers, so u only need starter edition

[steep egret]

you needed to buy complete edition, Endwalker only includes some DLC, its in the product description
to get what you missed, buy starter edition now

[leaden ginkgo]

@steep egret @solemn jewel @boreal storm Thank you very much. Will look into it!

[steep egret]

note, sales of starter (and complete) only JUST now resumed (like 15 minutes ago)
sooo depending on where you bought it, it may not be available yet
if you were playing on Steam, you may have to wait a day for the store to update

[verbal moon]

@steep egret thanks for the guidance, didn’t realize the starter pack would show up only like an hour later. All set and linked up

[steep egret]

nice, glad to hear it 😄 👍

[leaden ginkgo]

Hello.
Question regarding the Frontlines.
The PVP Revival guides say it resets at 2pm GMT. Is that right?
Note: 3pm GMT = Dungeon Reset.

Also, when exactly does the weekly reset occur?

[boreal storm]

Like now

[verbal moon]

15 minutes ago

[fringe venture]

is this current maintenance break including the release of oceanic date servers does anyone know?

[leaden ginkgo]

Yup, it is.

[fringe venture]

KEEN

[tight dust]

What time does the steam store update, anyone know?

[boreal storm]

We’re not steam, we don’t know when they’ll put it back up

[tight dust]

helpful

[leaden ginkgo]

so whhich one of these options in the playstation store do i buy to upgrade from free trial to evertyhing

[verbal moon]

I read the notes about bonus for transfer, other than Oceania I didn’t see anything about servers getting “preferred” status only congested, does that mean no preferred transfers for existing DCs?

[leaden ginkgo]

complete edition?

[verbal moon]

Complete

Which I wish I had bought

[leaden ginkgo]

what did you buy

[boreal storm]

Haven’t had preferred worlds for months

[leaden ginkgo]

Does preferred world 2x bonus exp apply to Roulette bonus or nah?

[verbal moon]

Oh ok, so looks like I’d have to switch regions.

[limpid cape]

I bought the collectors edition of end walker on the Square E store page. Do I need to buy the standard edition for steam? Will my collectors edition work on a steam standard edition

[boreal storm]

All exp

[steep egret]

Endwalker, which doesn't include A Realm Reborn and Heavensward, which you need to even start the game

[boreal storm]

Gotta be steam

[final oak]

Does it matter if I get the NA or EU version of FF? Can still pick server in Oceania right?

[boreal storm]

Account region has to match

[limpid cape]

Okay so just buy the standard edition and then redeem my collectors edition on the mog website

[steep egret]

you can't mix and match Steam and non-Steam purchases

[leaden ginkgo]

Free trial accounts dont get reset rigth

[limpid cape]

Okay so ive gotten two answers now

[final oak]

Guess we have to wait for Steam then cos living in Singapore

[steep egret]

well, maybe collectors extras, not sure how that works

[boreal storm]

The same answer actually

[limpid cape]

No one person said you can mix and he just said you cant

[boreal storm]

You bought steam starter, so you need steam EndWalker

[steep egret]

but base game and DLCs, can't be bought on steam and not-steam, and used on the same account

[limpid cape]

I didnt

[hot eagle]

you need to get starter from sqex since your endwalker is from sqex also

[steep egret]

they said they bought from the SE store

[limpid cape]

^

Yup

I bought the End walker collectors edition from the SE store

[steep egret]

misunderstanding, all good

you must buy starter from the SAME SE store

same region

[limpid cape]

Okay

[steep egret]

dont be smart and try get cheaper from a different regions store 😄

[lucid hornet]

as nice as this game is, se account management is confusing as heck

[boreal storm]

This is why you just get complete edition

[steep egret]

first boss, is buying the game

[boreal storm]

Less hassle

[steep egret]

yes

new players, should just buy complete edition, and thats it

one purchase, ez

[craggy tinsel]

More challenging than most ARR trials

[limpid cape]

Yeah its so fucking confusing hoenstly

[leaden ginkgo]

this isnt rly something ingame. but was looking for general advice. I joined a static as a tank said i would stay until we're all bis. we cleared p4s but im kinda burnt out from tanking and wanna go melee dps..

what can i do here to quit

[craggy tinsel]

Tell them you wanna try melee dps

See if anyone is willing to swap

[leaden ginkgo]

i mean we're a full static

[lucid hornet]

I realized that I own a starter edition, but somehow leveled an free trial account on the same steam account and now cant upgrade the free one to starter since I already own it

[limpid cape]

Wait wtf

[craggy tinsel]

You can join zero chest parties for more practice and play as a melee dps there

[steep egret]

be upfront with them and if they dont like it, leave???
sorry not good advice, im generally pretty blunt with ppl and wont stick around if im not having fun

[limpid cape]

I already have end walker but ill be charged for it again?

[lime ore]

it's over...

[leaden ginkgo]

the drg changes made me wanna go back to drg...

[lime ore]

first the blue dragon buff is gone now the chain is gone, yoshi why 😦

[steep egret]

you wont, just buy starter edition

[limpid cape]

Its only for steam

[steep egret]

but you said you didn't buy on steam

so you want to use steam?

[craggy tinsel]

Blood of the Dragon needing to be pressed just made it an extra keybind for something that needed to always be active anyway... it's better this way

[limpid cape]

No On the version selector it only had steam for PC

[craggy tinsel]

Dragon Sight is good because you don't lose out on anything by having to step away for mechanics

[lime ore]

but blue

[steep egret]

version selector? where, ive not bought the game so got no idea what you are talking about

[leaden ginkgo]

also i heard you have a one time token to return anything you bought with a totem/tomestone can i return an ultimate weapon basically and change it

[craggy tinsel]

But one less thing to micromanage

[boreal storm]

It definitely said PC download somewhere, just missed it

[limpid cape]

Okay if I buy the standard edition will I need to buy other DLC too?

[steep egret]

NO

you said you already own endwalker

[boreal storm]

EW is the only dlc to buy

[limpid cape]

Yes

[steep egret]

starter is just the stuff ur missing

[limpid cape]

Okay cool

[steep egret]

EW, contains everything that starter doesn't

[shut orbit]

hmmnm my credit card is not working

anyone bought from Msia?

!faq subpricegbp

[zinc orbit]

Error!

No tag named subpricegbp exists, Kupo!

[steep egret]

🤷‍♂️

[limpid cape]

I legit dont have that

wtf

[steep egret]

just go to the store directly

[limpid cape]

Okay

[steep egret]

what region?

[limpid cape]

Can I play this game in the middle east?

[steep egret]

should be able to

[boreal storm]

#kupo-bot-spam if it’s for personal use

[steep egret]

what Region did you buy EW from

which store

[limpid cape]

SE Store

[steep egret]

there is a EU, NA, and JP store

[limpid cape]

America

[steep egret]

Region

ah ok

[limpid cape]

Im on deployment so I did america

[odd wraith]

When will the game be purchasable again?

[limpid cape]

It is

[steep egret]

https://store.na.square-enix-games.com/en_US/product/599712/final-fantasy-xiv-online-starter-edition

that should be it for the NA store

i think

[prisma coral]

any recommendations for a fictional australian address?

[steep egret]

why?

please dont fake account details, it will backfire if you lose access to your account

its also against ToS

[limpid cape]

Okay ill try

[boreal storm]

Just use your actual region, then go to Materia DC

[steep egret]

you can register an account in almost any region

[warm snow]

Yeah, don't do that

[steep egret]

and play on any server you want

[limpid cape]

Okay I think itll work

[steep egret]

there aren't regional lockouts

[boreal storm]

Account region and Data Centers have 0 connections

[steep egret]

Account region more defines where you can buy the game, but even thats not 100%

[warm snow]

Cuz in like a month or two you'll get locked out of your account and then come whining here about not beinh able to get in cuz you used a bunch of fake shit that you can't remember

[steep egret]

yeah, we had someone in here a while ago complaining they couldn't remember the fake date of birth they put on their account

[limpid cape]

@steep egret After I buy the DLC I just put them on a mog account and login and I can play after it downloads the game right?

[steep egret]

yeah should be

[limpid cape]

okay

[lucid hornet]

Is there an official way to get a second steam key for the starter edition? I wanna keep my free account but it is connected to my steam account which already has the starter edition registered to a different SE account. mogstation only links me to the steam account which has bought the starter already and doesnt give me the option to buy another one

[steep egret]

make sure both keys are registered

[limpid cape]

I waited to register the DLC Key because I didnt have the base game

[steep egret]

you probably would have to contact Square enix support
no official way to change linked accounts i have ever heard of

[limpid cape]

@steep egret Your key is being processed and it will be available here soon or when the product is released.\

What does this mean?

[lucid hornet]

ok, gonna give that a try. thanks

[boreal storm]

“You’ll get your game just not right now”

[steep egret]

you could just buy the game, not on steam, and not play it through steam

[tight dust]

he not talking to u lol

be nice or get out of help channel

fr

[boreal storm]

I answered his question

[limpid cape]

Its fine

Yeah hes good

[warm snow]

Who tf even asked you

[tight dust]

dude has had an attitude the whole time

[boreal storm]

That’s what you do in this channel, help

[tight dust]

🙂

[limpid cape]

Sorry for all the questions Its alot of accounts and stuff its kinda confusing

[warm snow]

You're fine

[tight dust]

just be nice and stop editing your rude ass messages

pepe is totally fine

[steep egret]

cool it, there are a lot of questions, and they are being very matter of fact, not rude, imo

[bleak grotto]

how do the editions of the game work? does complete edition grant access to all dlc or would i need to purchase them separately

[tight dust]

nah was rude to me before

[lucid hornet]

"upgrade to full version" only gives me the option to buy on steam, hence my question since I dont want to go to some key reseller to get another key

[warm snow]

Complete is game + dlc

[boreal storm]

Just get complete

[steep egret]

complete gives ALL current DLC

[leaden ginkgo]

What im worry is most ENG mentors from Tonberry move to OCE

[bleak grotto]

including endwalkers?

[limpid cape]

So how long do I need to wait? Another day or so?

[boreal storm]

Complete means complete, as in every thing

[warm snow]

They only ever sell the latest expansion and it includes all previous expansions

[bleak grotto]

alright thank you

[warm snow]

They don't sell shadowbringers or stormblood on their own any more

To prevent people doing a dumb

Mind you that still happens

[steep egret]

there is a way to transfer free trial accounts, from Steam to non-steam, or the other way around
its only possible do do when you purchase the game, im not sure of the specifics though
soo you may wanna google it

[warm snow]

But, preventative measures

[limpid cape]

Okay got the key

[leaden ginkgo]

people doing dumb = profit

[boreal storm]

Non steam to steam

[limpid cape]

Should I post here? 😎

[warm snow]

[boreal storm]

Steam users are locked in for good

[warm snow]

Not from free trial to full customer

[limpid cape]

imma make a mog account and hopefully start playing

[warm snow]

Server still down so no

[limpid cape]

Anyone have the mog account command

[warm snow]

!faq mogstation

[zinc orbit]

FFXIV Mog Station

FFXIV Mog Station link

[limpid cape]

can I still register my content?

[warm snow]

I think so

[steep egret]

to make it clear
purchasing Endwalker, gives you, Stormblood, Shadowbringers and Endwalker
purchasing Starter edition, gives you, A Realm Reborn and Heavensward
purchasing Complete edition, gives you all of the above

[boreal storm]

steam trial players can’t swap over, I’m 100% on that

[warm snow]

I don't think they took down mogstation

[warm snow]

This has been gone over multiple times here that they can, I don't want to have to ping a mentor over this

[bleak grotto]

alright thank you dork, i think i'll go with complete

[inland quarry]

Oh ye, when today will game purchases be available? My friend has been looking forward to this for a while lol...

[warm snow]

Store is open

Game is closed

[steep egret]

ok, i stand corrected then, thanks, sorry about the wrong info @lucid hornet

[inland quarry]

Ight

[lucid hornet]

all good, thanks for the effort

[steep egret]

right now, game purchases resumed 45 minutes ago, though steam may take longer, maybe a day

[storm sapphire]

Does ninja’s trick attack apply to non-party members too?

[lucid hornet]

guess I have to start leveling again, kinda sad when I just made it to 3.0 yesterday after playing the whole week

[inland quarry]

It's a debuff so it applies to the enemy not players.

[lucid hornet]

on the bright side tho, process should only take half as long now since I can skip all the cutscenes

[obsidian patio]

All players benefit from debuffs on the enemy, unless the debuff specifies otherwise

Like RPR’s debuff which only buffs their damage and no one else’s.

[steep egret]

look on the bright side, at least its only a week 😄
also you can skip every cutscene, so it will be alot faster (well i guess its not really a bright side)
if i was in your position with the amount of game time I've put in the free trial, i think id just quit, ive spend something like 5 months in the free trial so far

[storm sapphire]

Alright cool

[steep egret]

so, who do i bill my tech support time to?
i guess ill send the bill to SE 🤣

[bleak grotto]

after purchasing how long does it take to receive the code or download from se

[inland quarry]

Idk about mogstation but code from steam is instant, so even on mogstation shouldn't take too long

[hollow osprey]

it was about 10 minutes for me

[boreal storm]

It’s gonna take a bit

Traffic is nuts

[warm snow]

Paid store items you were told to allow up to 10 working days

And everything is gonna be slower today

[inland quarry]

Ye I guess traffic is going to slow the process

[limpid cape]

@steep egret Whats the one time password thing

[boreal storm]

2 factor authentication

[last mural]

Hmm? 6.08 notes are out, but does it actually state when it's implemented?

[boreal storm]

If you don’t have one leave it blank

[last mural]

Or am i blind?

[limpid cape]

okay

yeah idk it

[boreal storm]

This patch.

[steep egret]

you can setup a 2fa code, if you've used them for other things then youll have an idea what it is

[last mural]

... wait huh? You mean it's implemented today?

[steep egret]

now, its being implemented now

[last mural]

I thought it was going to be in Feb hahaha

[boreal storm]

What do think the maintenance was for

[limpid cape]

ITS DOWNLOADING

I also main PLD... was honestly annoyed at how even though we're the flashiest and the poster job of EW, we're so bad in DPS compared to other tanks

[leaden ginkgo]

World transfer opens up at the 26th?

[inland quarry]

It's insane to me how literally the giant holy great sword that God smites your enemies with does the same amount of dmg as throwing a plush toy

Truly magnificent

[leaden ginkgo]

hey, i own the game on steam so i dont know, but if you buy on the website, how do you download the game? its for a friend

[boreal storm]

You download the launcher

And register code

[wintry cypress]

dont buy from the website

thats super wrong btw lol

[last mural]

Seriously?

[warm snow]

Wtf no

[boreal storm]

Everyone can play with eachother

[solemn jewel]

its all crossplay

[inland quarry]

Why would that be the case? That would be the most stupid unoptimized shit

[solemn jewel]

they wouldnt segregate by console

[last mural]

... i'm gonna hit someone later...

[warm snow]

They're not gonna segregate all the server across platforms

That's waaaaay too much fucking work

[last mural]

Yeah... was wondering why they would do something so stupid...

[warm snow]

For an outright bad decisipn

[wintry cypress]

one of my friends couldnt install and had to contact SE

[inland quarry]

Imagine having 3 servers. One steam, one console, one website. Do you know how much money that would cost?

[boreal storm]

Which is why we haven’t gotten an Xbox version iirc

[warm snow]

Please do, that's very high on the list of stupid

[austere cloak]

Alright I got a question if I buy the starter edition and since I already bought endwalker will it register?

[last mural]

I should also hit myself for being so naive...

[warm snow]

That's moreso xbox being nonexistent in jp and licensing

[steep egret]

yes, just make sure you buy them both from the same store

[warm snow]

You'll have to register endwalker

[leaden ginkgo]

anyone knows Materia IP yet?

[warm snow]

No

[austere cloak]

How I do that?

[steep egret]

servers aren't up yet, so no, its impossible

[fair pelican]

yall should i just wait for complete edition to be back on steam?

or just go for the starter

[steep egret]

both should appear at the same time

[boreal storm]

Are you a Steam player already?

[steep egret]

so um yes

[fair pelican]

nah for some reason i cannot buy the complete for steam yet

i am steam player

yuus

[austere cloak]

I'm a PS4 player

[boreal storm]

Then you have to buy the steam version

[fair pelican]

yerah thank you

not my question

[steep egret]

just wait, its cheaper anyway, unless you really wanna play right now

[fair pelican]

okay ty

[inland quarry]

Asking for a friend since I always played on steam but. How does one transfer from mogstation to steam?

[steep egret]

you dont

[boreal storm]

Everyone uses mogstation

It’s just your account site

[steep egret]

now, IF they are using a non-steam version of the game, and have already paid and registered it, then they can't move

[warm snow]

That's like asking to transfer from your bank website to steam

[steep egret]

if they are on free trial, there is a way to move to Steam i believe

[inland quarry]

Have not payed. On Free trial

[boreal storm]

Then you just pick steam when you upgrade

[cosmic pilot]

Is there a website that can help log which content we haven't unlock yet?

[inland quarry]

Ight thx m8

[boreal storm]

No, because we have something in game for that

It’s called duty finder

[pulsar escarp]

https://xivtodo.com

you can wire up your character and it tells you precisely what you haven't done.

[cosmic pilot]

Oh wow

[fair pelican]

thats actually mad tysm for link

[jade hedge]

the website to buy the game is a fucking pain, if i use "transfer to full service account" i can create a new character too right on my old trial account?

[cosmic pilot]

Yeah, I used to do that. Check one by one...

[jade hedge]

just want to make sure as im total ass on buying this game :,D

[boreal storm]

No

[solemn jewel]

if u upgrade ur trial account u can keep the character

[boreal storm]

If you upgrade, you’re not on trial anymore

[pulsar escarp]

You can't find content you've never unlocked in df

[jade hedge]

ok so it upgrades account and doenst work like server transfer but between accounts, thanks

[frail fulcrum]

How do I transfer a character to Oceania DC?

[wispy totem]

I just woke up thinking the update was finished ;_; My dreams are crushed

[safe rapids]

Hi guys, anyone know what time will the servers be up?

[frail fulcrum]

45 min

[wispy totem]

They should really put a countdown timer on the launcher or something. xD

[neat patrol]

So is the Omega outfit being added in the store, different from the others? As well as, is it a level 1 All Classes version? Idk if we know yet

[warm snow]

Sometimes it finishes early

[oak quarry]

most likely level 1 all classes

[warm snow]

This one can finish early

[warm snow]

It's the one the boss wears, not the raid gear

[neat patrol]

😮 I'ma need to pick that up someday, Best waifu 😉

[pulsar escarp]

it's purely cosmetic

[boreal storm]

It’s a glam outfit that’s totally gender locked

[warm snow]

We don't know that

[cosmic pilot]

Use !maint on #kupo-bot-spam

[warm snow]

They took a lot of gender locks off mogstation items

[neat patrol]

They show both genders wearing it

[warm snow]

We don't know if this has locks

[azure finch]

Does anyone know how long do new worlds become standard?

I'm thinking of transferring to Oceania but am too busy to play the game now so I'll probably transfer later on

[neat patrol]

Unless you mean locked upon claim to Gender

[wispy totem]

Quick question about A4S, can you get the gobwalker mount doing unsync'd? Like is there a % chance that it 'Could' drop? Or do I need to do it sync'd to get it?

[warm snow]

Also wrong, there are two different tops

[inland quarry]

Yes, all Mounts from raid drop upon killing boss no matter what

[warm snow]

It'll drop 100%, you need ay least two people tho

[oak quarry]

male version based on omega-m, female version based on omega-f

[warm snow]

A4s has mechs that wipe solo players

[oak quarry]

shocking i know

[wispy totem]

even if it's unsync'd?

[neat patrol]

Oh yeah, It says "items" not "item"

[inland quarry]

Yes

[wispy totem]

cause I can solo A4S in 2 mins. kinda funny how I need two to get it to drop xD

[warm snow]

No you can't

[inland quarry]

You can't solo a4s

[boreal storm]

Mechanics

[inland quarry]

It's impossible

[warm snow]

No one can solo a4s

[boreal storm]

Ever

[wispy totem]

Alexander, The Father's burdon is A4S right?

[inland quarry]

No, savage is a4s

U doing normal

Not savage

[wispy totem]

Alexander, The Father's Burdon Savage*

[inland quarry]

Yes

Burden of the father savage

Drops gobwalker

[wispy totem]

hmmmm maybe I que'd normal on accident. I swore I check marked A4S unsync'd.

[warm snow]

Nisi comes out while you're breaking the 4th leg

And that's instant death solo

[inland quarry]

Yep

[wispy totem]

Hmm

[wintry cypress]

how do i get flaming wheels mount?

[warm snow]

Money

[inland quarry]

Mogstation

[wispy totem]

I must have done normal or something, Cause when I kill 2 legs I can DPS him down to finish

[wintry cypress]

oh

nvm

[warm snow]

That's normal

[inland quarry]

Normal 2 legs. Savage 4 legs

[wispy totem]

k

How many people do I need for A4S? I have PLD and WHM 90 atm.

[inland quarry]

Just 2

[wispy totem]

k

[inland quarry]

And classes don't matter

[azure finch]

Are the nier raids canon? If I'm intending to play Replicant and automata, should I avoid these raids till I have completed both games?

[boreal storm]

No

[wispy totem]

what about A12S, do you remember how many people you need for that to clear?

[inland quarry]

U can do nier raids. They aren't canon

[inland quarry]

2

[wispy totem]

nice

ty

[inland quarry]

All savage tiers beside coils cannot be solo

[warm snow]

It's yoko taros world of fuck you lore. They won't spoil the games, besides reusing boss designs

[knotty light]

Can anyone explain to me step by step how do i download the game, make the code working and how do i even log into the game?

[inland quarry]

Man the nier raids were worth playing just for the music

[wispy totem]

Speaking of Neir. That game has the best video game soundtrack of all time

[knotty light]

because i've spent hours

and i can't make it

[inland quarry]

Fr fr

[azure finch]

I see, thank you. Semi related question, Replicant or automata first?

[cloud pendant]

if I buy FFXIV on one server do I have it on all the other servers as well?

[inland quarry]

Doesn't matter there are 5k years between the two

[wispy totem]

^

[boreal storm]

DCs have nothing to do with account region

[storm sapphire]

I’d still do replicant first imo

[knotty light]

"question and help" and they're talking about different game

ok thanks

[naive ridge]

its regions not server, any region version can play on all servers

but yes you have to continue buying from the same region

[boreal storm]

What exactly is the issue

[wispy totem]

Which one came out first? I played that one, not the newest. And if you buy the first Nier, buy the soundtrack online and download it to your pc and burn it to a CD. xD

[prime plover]

You should enter the code into mogstation?

[inland quarry]

Bro stop crying first of all, second nier while being a different game had a Collab with ffxiv and a man asked if he needed to play nier first before doing the raids so it related

[ember magnet]

when is the OCE server transfer available?

[knotty light]

says the code is not valid

[cloud pendant]

so lets say I'm in asia and my character is adamontoise does that mean if I start a character in japan servers I'll still have all the expansions and such?

[boreal storm]

Are you sure you bought from the right store?

[wispy totem]

I think you can transfer in... 14 1/2 hours?

[azure finch]

Sorry guys, didn't meant to derail the chat :(

[steep egret]

what region is your square account registered, and what region did you buy the game from?
they should match

[prime plover]

you added service account?

[naive ridge]

you can start a character on any server

[inland quarry]

Yes. You will have all expacs but the character on adamantoise won't transfer over

[rain tree]

hello

does this mean i can level a character here

[cloud pendant]

okay thats all I care about not the characters lol

thanks!

[knotty light]

i don't think i did

[cloud pendant]

good bye

[rain tree]

and enjoy the 15 days in aether?

[wispy totem]

You can play on whatever server you want ohbi, you'll have to change 'datacenters' at the title page once you launch the game.

[knotty light]

both eu

[cloud pendant]

oh ok

[boreal storm]

No

You’re stuck in materia for however long, because that’s how new world transfers work

[steep egret]

if you level a new character to 30, , you get the free time added to ur account

[rain tree]

what does that mean? i have characters in asian data centre in the same account

[steep egret]

but you can't move that character elsewhere

[prime plover]

maybe try that? where did you enter the code

[steep egret]

you can play other characters though

[rain tree]

i was saying

for example

i level something there up to 30

then i get 15 days?

[steep egret]

yes

[wispy totem]

and 1mil gil

[steep egret]

playtime is not character specific

[manic crest]

has there been anything about when the game's live on steam yet?

[boreal storm]

No

[steep egret]

so it just gets added, then you can to play something else on another server

[prime plover]

what os is your code

[knotty light]

im trying to enter the code on mog station

[rain tree]

NOICE!

hells yea

[steep egret]

steam takes some time to update its store front
you may have to wait a day

[rain tree]

i just level something there and get free 15 days

[knotty light]

PC

[rain tree]

amazing

[manic crest]

damn

[steep egret]

its likely SE has already enabled it, its waiting on Steam

[manic crest]

it is live on SE now wanted it on steam however

[prime plover]

what code did you buy? complete edition?

[knotty light]

that's what i bought

[manic crest]

just checked found something that says steams storefront updates at 13:00 EDT current time is 04:30 EDT

[boreal storm]

You didn’t get starter

[inland quarry]

How easy is Eden now if you unsync it will full party? Because I remember in shb unsyncing omega pretty much let you skip so many mechanics

[boreal storm]

You need the base game

To use expansions

[prime plover]

that is only the expansion

[knotty light]

[prime plover]

try to refund and buy

[boreal storm]

Why

Just buy starter

That’s way easier

[inland quarry]

Buying EW gives storm blood shadowbringers and endwalker.
Buying starter gives a realm reborn and heavsward. You need all to play the game

[whole kindle]

anyone noticed their paladin's endwalker artifact shield is broken ?

[prime plover]

oh thats true do that

[steep egret]

purchasing Endwalker, gives you, Stormblood, Shadowbringers and Endwalker
purchasing Starter edition, gives you, A Realm Reborn and Heavensward
purchasing Complete edition, gives you all of the above
you needed to buy complete edition
so you can either refund it, if possible, OR just buy starter edition now to get what you are missing

[agile laurel]

define broken

[whole kindle]

took this screenshot and suddenly noticed it

[knotty light]

ok thank You

[whole kindle]

how do I fixed it

[boreal storm]

You don’t

[prime plover]

this lmao

[whole kindle]

the shield model

[knotty light]

why do i see starter for 9,99 @prime plover not 19,99

[agile laurel]

based on mechanical complexity of 4, 8 and 12, you're going to need to do them properly in almost entirety - besides the fact they die earlier.

besides that it's likely probably similar to shb - i imagine 1 and 2, generally the earlier not-mechanic specific ones are simpler

[knotty light]

i want to make sure im buying right one this time

[steep egret]

depends on ur regional pricing

[boreal storm]

It’s not broken dude

[whole kindle]

look at its top

[knotty light]

so it's the one i need?

[steep egret]

though make sure you are buying from teh same place you got endwalker

[knotty light]

i am

[steep egret]

looks right to me

[whole kindle]

ye

[ancient locust]

If I buy a job skip for a new character on the OCE data centers will I still get the level 30 bonuses?

[wispy totem]

stinky farts. Peeyew

[boreal storm]

Pretty sure you wouldn’t

[whole kindle]

look at the top of the shield

[ancient locust]

It should tick off the level 30 flag should it not?

[hasty sierra]

Snizzy, he holding shield on the left side in the moon pic, and right on the other pic

[wispy totem]

@ancient locust maybe, if not, you'll get another double xp since you have a job higher than one you'll be starting out as. Should take... 1 day to get to lvl 30 if you buy some xp gear off mogstation. And get the xp ring from mentor questline at lvl 15

[modest igloo]

i spent some time in e8s in PF, we killed basically before/during icewyrm with no damage downs

[ancient locust]

should be easy then, ty

I'm planning on making an alt and buying a Job+MSQ skip

[boreal storm]

Don’t buy exp gear on mogstation unless you really want the glam

The bonus only works if all the gear is worn at once

[wispy totem]

ooo, have you invited some friends with recruit a friend codes before? if so you'll get some golden chocobo tickets on the new character, and you can get the 25% xp bonus headpiece.

[ancient locust]

What sets give bonus exp?

[wispy totem]

there's a set off mogstation that's just body, legs and feet. costs $18 tho

lemme find it temmus

[leaden ginkgo]

i want to format my pc and install the game again but how can i copy my character settings ? HUD and stuff

[true jolt]

Some mogstation clothes give it but imo not worth it to buy just for exp

[ancient locust]

fair enough

I'll just buy the MSQ+Job skip then if I take an L I'll just manually level to level 30 on a different job

[weary glacier]

When is creation of free trials be going back? My friends really wanna try FFXIV

[wispy totem]

@ancient locust Fuga Atire off mogstation. Under costume set

[steep egret]

all HUD and other settings are stored in C:\Users\[username]\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn
you can backup that folder and restore it later

[boreal storm]

No clue

[ancient locust]

I kinda went around that by sending my friends the installer for the free trial

[boreal storm]

That won’t work

[wispy totem]

@ancient locust body and legs that give +15% xp bonus

[true jolt]

Should be today but didnt know specific time

[ancient locust]

Ty man!

[steep egret]

no, free trials are not enabled today, ONLY purchases of the game

registration of new free trials are still disabled, indefinitely

[boreal storm]

If they never made a trial account before, they’re out of luck

[true jolt]

Oh... Didnt know that, so new player must buy starter to be able to play?

[steep egret]

yup

[shut panther]

Do you get pre-order bonuses sent to new characters like CE bonuses are?

[true jolt]

Sad but fair enough due to condition

[steep egret]

unless you already had a free trial from before registrations were disabled, you have to pay for the game

[wispy totem]

@ancient locust don't forget to buy some raisins for 5gil at the starter cities for the food xp bonus if you're going to min max xp bonus. xD

[boreal storm]

Yep, account wide

[knotty light]

ok it works now, thank You @prime plover @steep egret

[true jolt]

Yes, they should be sent to your mail.

[steep egret]

they will wait and see how server load goes, which is why only purchases were restored
god knows the volume of people who would jump on if free trial registrations were allowed

[ancient locust]

Oh fr? my friends just made Squex accounts then installed the free trial with the installer I sent them

[steep egret]

no problem, glad to hear it

[weary glacier]

You mean... right now?

[ancient locust]

I'll make sure to do that

[ancient locust]

nah like

[leaden ginkgo]

is there a way to backup it online ? like ingame

[boreal storm]

Still wouldn’t work

[bleak nimbus]

no free trial yet?

[ancient locust]

a month ago

[steep egret]

there is a button somewhere on the login screen to do that

[true jolt]

When you want to login there is a cog/gear like icon on character screen

One is for character setting, one is for system

Back up both and you can restore it later

[wispy totem]

@leaden ginkgo you can copy those files, and put them on your desktop. Or upload them to dropbox if you're feeling froggy?

[leaden ginkgo]

then whats the use of some feathure in login screen

[steep egret]

free trial registrations were stopped in mid-december, so they probably just made it in, barely

[leaden ginkgo]

somehing with backup thing

[true jolt]

Thats the one, thats the server setting backup feature

[leaden ginkgo]

it can save my settings ?

[inland quarry]

Still remember my friend made his free trial account the night before they stopped sales

[wispy totem]

So I just got rank 3 on all of the EW shared fates. Working on getting the mount with the vouchers. Does the expansion pack before EW have it's own unique mount to grind out ounce you get rank 3 on all of those shared fates?

[true jolt]

Yeah, one is for saving your "character settings" (near your char name). Other is for "system settings" (near world selection)

[leaden ginkgo]

Thank you

[ancient locust]

They didn't register for a free trial, they registered for Square accounts then logged in to the installer I sent them

[wispy totem]

Will all of my settings be gone when I transfer from Tonberry to one of the OCE datacenters?

[true jolt]

Cmiiw ShB rank 3 shared fates only give access to more crafting raw mats

[wispy totem]

k

[boreal storm]

No? You’re not moving systems or anything

[wispy totem]

swet

[steep egret]

so they then got the free trial when logging on to the launcher, you can't just magically bypass the registration process, it happened, they just dont realise it

[wispy totem]

sweet

[true jolt]

Everything under "character setting" will be reset iirc

[steep egret]

if there was a bypass to get free trials while registration was stopped, we'd have heard about it

[leaden ginkgo]

gilgamesh is 100 % closed after this patch? even with the server transfer?

[ancient locust]

this was,,, close to christmas I believe

[true jolt]

Wait, you transfer i thought you create new. Ignore me

[wispy totem]

xD

[boreal storm]

Server lock is still dependent on players currently on

[wispy totem]

Can you solo the great hunt savage at lvl 90?

[hoary citrus]

Question (kinda long, sorry): A friend got a new PC for Christmas, wants to migrate over her XIV account from PS4, doesn't wanna buy EW on both platforms. What would happen if she logged out as RPR on PC and tried to log in on PS4, would it even let her?

[ancient locust]

yeah my friends did it after christmas, they made squex accounts then used the Free Trial installer

[true jolt]

*extreme

I havent heard any record but maybe tank can do it

[boreal storm]

As WAR definitely

[true jolt]

But hey phase 2 is pots only

So war dont have advantages

[modest igloo]

o4s and o5s are soloable so its within the realm of possibility

[true jolt]

Only mitigation

[boreal storm]

They have all the potions

[steep egret]

interesting, if true, i wouldn't go mentioning it everywhere, otherwise SE will shut it down

[true jolt]

Yeah i mean war dont have the advantages to the point P1N can be soloable atm due to no heals on p2

[ancient locust]

100% lol

[inland quarry]

Bro didn't a WAR solo p1s?

[strong elbow]

Should I be buying the starter from PlayStation store or from the trial menu?

[true jolt]

That P1N took 1 hour man, do you think savage is possible? xD

[boreal storm]

If GNB can do it with no echo, so can WAR

[ebon shoal]

My account is technically registered, but the launcher says it's not. I bought the complete edition with endwalker and still says the same thing. Does anybody has the same problem?

[inland quarry]

Oh it was p1n... Ye makes more sense lmfao

[steep egret]

what version of the game did you purchase

[boreal storm]

Did you actually register the code?

[ebon shoal]

"FINAL FANTASY® XIV ONLINE COMPLETE EDITION"

[patent citrus]

It says there, you haven't got a service account

[ebon shoal]

Code? where it goes to?

[steep egret]

look at Service account Status page, scroll to the bottom
does it show that you own all of them

[boreal storm]

Literally that screen

[strong elbow]

Do I buy the starter from PlayStation store or from the trial?

[boreal storm]

The store

[strong elbow]

Pls I don’t want to miss my chance

Ok thank you

[ebon shoal]

this page goes to the same as the above

[steep egret]

create service account

[boreal storm]

Register code

[steep egret]

you need to register the key

[inland quarry]

Bro chill it's been an hour since sales resumes you have time

[steep egret]

you're literally looking at what you need to do on that screen 🙂

[ebon shoal]

yea but... the key

where is it

where it goes

[boreal storm]

Read

Please

[boreal storm]

You didn’t enter a code

[ebon shoal]
