[rocky panther]

if I move to a new world, I assume I automatically get kicked out of my free company

[remote lintel]

you cant move until you leave

[obsidian patio]

You need to leave your FC to be able to transfer

[rocky panther]

got it, thanks!

[subtle shore]

does server transfer delete my ishgard restoration ranking or are those set in stone?

[obsidian patio]

First time I’ve thought about the rankings in terms of home world transfers

[leaden ginkgo]

Is there a way to know the current population of Oceania? I want to transfer but im afraid that the queues for dungeons might be long

[true jolt]

whats minimum ammount of people to do DRN? i was doing it solo and got blasted by stack marker

[gusty marlin]

So no matter what the type of purchase, Weapon, Attire, Mount, Minion, Pre-order bonus, Yadda yadda, Just takes time and you WILL get them?

[boreal storm]

We don’t know population numbers, just pick one

[true jolt]

Try making alt and see it roughly from available PF?

[tropic flame]

you'll need to level the alt til you can unlock PF though

[pure copper]

does it actually matter which city i have my retainer sell at

[obsidian patio]

Some cities have reduced tax on selling items

[leaden ginkgo]

good idea

[obsidian patio]

You can check by talking to the retainer vocate

[leaden ginkgo]

wait pf is locked?

[regal pawn]

Technically 1, if you got the right setup

[obsidian patio]

Last I checked, all the non-starting city ones have reduced tax, at least for aether

[regal pawn]

a warrior solo'd it this tier

[obsidian patio]

But you can easily move retainers around as needed

[tropic flame]

its just the lvl 15 msq quest

[true jolt]

Yeah i checked it on yt but i took painfuk 1 hour and the creator said the queen dps check need clever usage of lost rage. I am not even main war XD

I am searching for no of people that can do it without that ammount of optmization.

[vast ferry]

Does medica have travel time or is it just lag

[regal pawn]

it's how AOEs work

they propagate from point of origin out, checking distances

[jade quartz]

Yes and no

[regal pawn]

you can also see it with raidwides

[jade quartz]

It’s not distance-based exactly

Or

Well

[regal pawn]

well

[true jolt]

How aoe works in this game is they applied it very quickly one at a time to your party

[neat loom]

You guys know any SEA players
🥺
👉 👈
I wanna asks questions about servers and purchases

[regal pawn]

which one gets hit first is

[jade quartz]

It doesn’t depend on how far the distance is

[vast ferry]

I noticed that when I cast medica some people get healed before others

[regal pawn]

yeah

[jade quartz]

It only depends on the order of closeness to the caster

[vast ferry]

The delay is tiny but it’s there

[regal pawn]

closest to furthest

[jade quartz]

Not how many meters each person is

[naive ridge]

ask away

[true jolt]

Yeah its just very very quick "single target"

[regal pawn]

Same with raidwides
closest to furthest

You can cheese alliance raids with that sometimes

[true jolt]

Indonesian here, whats your question

[regal pawn]

be furthest away and you just wont' get hit by the raidwide sometimes

[pure copper]

wait really

[regal pawn]

it's not reliable much
but yeah lmao

[vast ferry]

Also does medica have a larger aoe than cure 3

[regal pawn]

yes

[jade quartz]

Yes

[true jolt]

Can confirm,i ts rare case but i saw it happened

[regal pawn]

cure 3 is small

[naive ridge]

cure 3 has a small aoe

[regal pawn]

and mainly used when you're stacked up

or want to yeet a big-ish heal to some other stack

[neat loom]

I'm from MY and I wanna play in a server with the least latency, I heard JP was the closest but yesterday there's OCE server? and about the subscriptions on how to get them.

[regal pawn]

how do I ping the IP?

Windows: Open Command Prompt and type ping *insert IP Address here*
Mac: Open Terminal and type ping *insert IP Address here*

[regal pawn]

you can use this to check ping

[jade quartz]

Test your ping to both

^

[neat loom]

Oh, then I have to download the game first to try that

[regal pawn]

nah

[jade quartz]

No

[jade quartz]

Use cmd

[neat loom]

Oh?

[true jolt]

For subs you can buy game card or use credit card or VCN if you are not eligble to make legit credit card

[neat loom]

Oh shit nice

[naive ridge]

OCE should be slighty worse but it should be close enough, but test it anyways

[neat loom]

What's VCN?

[jade quartz]

VPN

[limber hound]

Anecdote: I'm in SG and I get twice the ping to OCE than I do to JP

[naive ridge]

But there should be a bigger english speaking community in OCE as it fills up

[vast ferry]

I’m curious can you transfer between data centers

[naive ridge]

not between regions (for world visits)

[true jolt]

Vritual card number. Basically one time use credit card the use fund from your main bank account. Some bank in indonesia offer that service

[neat loom]

Oh no

[limber hound]

80ms to Elemental, 160 to Materia

[neat loom]

Oh I see, how about these game cards?

[leaden ginkgo]

I'm from PH which is kinda near to SG but i get like 300 ms on JP for some reason

[true jolt]

You can buy it via some sellers like amazon iirc but again to buy online you mainly use credit card, vcn or card that support online debit

Idk if physical one exist since SEA is not on official service area

[limber hound]

must be the cable sharks

My connection was wonk for a week, but ISP managed to fix it or something

[vast ferry]

I wonder what my ping is

[jade quartz]

For a price of 18 usd, yes

[vast ferry]

Was mainly curious because OCE players would have had to use a different data center until now

[boreal storm]

Unless you go to OCE, for now at least

[jade quartz]

Transfers from other datacentres to OCE have been made free for a time

This is always the case when new servers are added

[vast ferry]

That was nice of them

[leaden ginkgo]

When the new EU servers come out, do you think it'll be free to move again?

[jade quartz]

Yes

[leaden ginkgo]

Nice

[jade quartz]

It’s a condition built into servers with the “new” status

[leaden ginkgo]

Is it on july onwards?

[regal pawn]

Summer™️

[leaden ginkgo]

aight

[tall raven]

does anyone know what to do with alexander parts its useless to me since I am at level 70 territory

[jade quartz]

Trash

Discard

[limber hound]

If no want for glam, trash

[wintry cypress]

im from SG and i still get lower ping on JP Gaia like significantly lower

[tall raven]

f so no gil outcome way

[rocky panther]

so I read that transferring world from congested to others is free, yet when I get to confirmation it says $18

[boreal storm]

No

[rocky panther]

did I misunderstand something

[boreal storm]

Congested to preferred is free

[rocky panther]

ah snap

[boreal storm]

And there are no preferred worlds

[leaden ginkgo]

yeah my isp is weird ig

[vast ferry]

Is there even any benefit to transferring to preferred worlds

[rocky panther]

rip

[plain python]

does the 15 days free sub for a character lv30 in preferred/new server still apply after you sub? Or you lose the chance the moment you come out of free-trial?

[steep egret]

lol, i get 15ms to OCE, since im in sydney , practically on top of the servers 😄
whereas i get 120ms to Elemental

[tall raven]

if yyou got friends

[steep egret]

having a non-shit ISP helps

[vast ferry]

So basically none for me

[true jolt]

Less competition on housing (based on my experience tonberry vs kujata)

[vast ferry]

Is housing a big deal

[thin lynx]

Does anyone do beast tribe quests after they get enough reputation to buy the mount?

[true jolt]

Nope, just for you to channel interior design creativity

[vast ferry]

I do like to channel my creativity

[tall raven]

if you have no house becuase you can't transfer house

[steep egret]

to complete alliance quests probably, or max out rep

though i think SHB and EW dont have alliance beast tribe quests

[true jolt]

Well, you can always buy apartment. its small but it will do

Housing also "bind" you to sub since you must enter it once evert 45 days or it will be demolised due to inactivity

Apartment is permanent

[oak lily]

Pixie quests give a ton of exp

[limber hound]

Sorta good xp for the effort, I think

At least for pixies

For SB and HW there's two combat beast tribes so it's twice the effort(?)

[vast ferry]

Any tips for healers

[oak lily]

try to keep people alive rather than topped off

[vast ferry]

Currently playing whm plan to switch to Astro once I unlock it

[true jolt]

Most important hp is the last one.

If your teammate wont die in next GCD, just dps

Prefer ogcd heals over gcd heals, do more dpsss (unless you are whm then welp (

[limber hound]

At low levels, you can start paying attention to how big your heals are

[obsidian patio]

Damage output in a fight is very predictable and rarely has random big hits

[limber hound]

e.g. my Cure heals for 200, tank has 650 HP

[thin lynx]

Alright thanks. The completionist in me will probably end up maxing them anyway haha

[limber hound]

Until the tank goes below 450 or even 500 HP, I'm free to throw damage

[obsidian patio]

…assuming people do their best to avoid unneeded damage, of course

[limber hound]

And that's if you absolutely must keep people at 100%

[oak lily]

helps in trials and raids there's a second healer

[limber hound]

at lower levels there's not much to do, but later on (especially as AST) you get a lot of tools in between your regular casts to keep people alive

[vast ferry]

My experience with tanks is they’re either really good or really bad

[oak lily]

I plan to do Whm for EW

[faint geyser]

Hey, what is the strategy for the boss of T6?

[oak lily]

been busy leveling it

are you going in synced?

[true jolt]

I was trying sage for some time and when back to whm i am stunned by the lack of ogcd whm has ;/

[limber hound]

WHM has the fewest buttons

[oak lily]

at 79, so don't have the full kit

[vast ferry]

How does sage compare to scholar

[limber hound]

I think WHM only gets three more buttons between 79 and 90

[oak lily]

lotta shields

[limber hound]

Temperance, the fluid shield thing, and Bell

[vast ferry]

So more shields

[molten cipher]

does anyone know why It won't let me give him the rest?

[vast ferry]

Should I use medica II to apply regen whenever the buff ends

[tropic flame]

what does he tell you?

[oak lily]

not always

[raven sage]

are they at least the minimum collectability?

[true jolt]

Do you reach the minimum 110 collectability?

[molten cipher]

ohhh no, how do I do that?

[true jolt]

Trash it, craft again and this time focus on quality too

[boreal storm]

Raise quality

[faint flare]

Raise the collectiblity when crafting

[boreal storm]

Like normal crafting

[molten cipher]

ahhhh

ty ❤️

[vast ferry]

Should I bother with crafting

[oak lily]

I haven't yet

[tropic flame]

for?

[vast ferry]

I’ve been completely neglecting it in favor of msq

[boreal storm]

It’s optional

[tropic flame]

its completely optional

[boreal storm]

Don’t gotta do nothing you don’t wanna do

[oak lily]

plenty of people are omnicrafters tii

[vast ferry]

Dude you literally need to do the msq

[true jolt]

If you are casual crafter the only benefit is you can meld yourself for free + ez repair anywhere using dark matter

If you think that worth the effort... Feel free to level it up

Big $$$ need investment

[molten cipher]

Crafting is just something to do in my opinion.

It can maker you a lot fo gil but also costs a lot xD

[vast ferry]

I’ll put that on the backburner then

[boreal storm]

I was talking about crafting not being necessary

[grizzled smelt]

if they have a red emblem over there name does that mean i cant do the challenge?

[oak lily]

what?

[tropic flame]

you mean a red quest?

[vast ferry]

Red quests you mean?

[grizzled smelt]

yeah like it has a red quest with a red key

and its not letting me progress like i go to talk to the people it wants me to and it says 0/5

[vast ferry]

Yeah yiu can’t do that until you meet the requirements

[boreal storm]

So talk to the people

Do the objectives

[vast ferry]

Usually you need to level if it’s red

[wraith vapor]

Is this the story quest in Drybone? You need to be equipped with certain gear I think

[vast ferry]

At least at lower levels

[tepid stag]

does higher collectability give you more stuff when you break them down using aetherial reduction

[grizzled smelt]

OHHHH okay

thanks so much!!!

[wraith vapor]

No prob!

[vast ferry]

If your talking about that tutorial quest around level 6 where you need better equipment then there’s a merchant somewhere in that town that’ll sell gear

At least there was in the limsa path

[strange coral]

Yes

[oak lily]

same for Gridania

[vast ferry]

Starting to tire out maybe I’ll finally be able to fall asleep

From what I understand the first 10 levels are basically the same regardless of your start

[boreal storm]

14

[vast ferry]

Since they’re meant to teach you the basic mechanics

[oak lily]

but Mother Miounne is the best Adv Guild head

[vast ferry]

And yes 14 my b

[boreal storm]

The Envoy quests are technically different depending on where you start but not really

[ivory crest]

I’m on ps5 and I’ve been trying to customize my hot bars and add the skills in the WXHB hot bars. But every time I place skills on one of my normal hot bar the same exact skill appears on the WXHB hot bar. How do I only put skills on the WXHN hot bar?

[vast ferry]

I mean technically they’re different you fight different people for different reasons but the essence of each quest is the same

[oak lily]

turn off shared hotbars

[vast ferry]

The WXHN hot bar mirrors another hot bar

Same with if you hold both buttons

[wraith vapor]

Mother Miounne makes me wanna go back to Gridania and tell her all about how I ||defeated a primal and drove out the empire|| while my WoL slowly goes from Miqo'te Miki'tten

[vast ferry]

Look in your settings to figure out which it is then switch by holding r2 and the correct button

[ivory crest]

Finally thanks guys.

[vast ferry]

YW that confused me at first as well

[outer lodge]

what was the command to pull up positionals ffor boss so i can help someone understand positionals better?

[static kelp]

my friend told me the Gloria-class Airship is going to be unavailable by patch 6.10, is this true?

[jade quartz]

No

[static kelp]

huh

I wonder where he heard that

[jade quartz]

It’s because feast may be being removed

But that mount reward will 99% likely be obtainable through a new method

[vast ferry]

Are there any cute mounts I can get for free?

[static kelp]

hhuh

I see

[jade quartz]

They’ve made no indication it will become unobtainable

When the Fold and the original Diadem were removed, their achievement and loot rewards were made obtainable elsewhere

[static kelp]

That's good to know

[tropic flame]

pixie beast tribe mount in shb

its a flying pig

[boreal storm]

We have various animal mounts

[vast ferry]

Currently riding around my lovely unicorn

Is that mount that looks like the summoners pet free?

Carbuncle that’s it

[boreal storm]

No

[tropic flame]

its a store mount

[vast ferry]

Darn

[boreal storm]

And no carbuncle minions either, sorry

[vast ferry]

I have the name right don’t I

[jade quartz]

Yes

[vast ferry]

Then glowing squirl thing

[tropic flame]

ngl cant think of any other cute mounts that are ingame

[jade quartz]

Chocobos are cute

[pulsar hawk]

hello how do i tp to the gold saucer ? i googled and all i see is how to unlock it

[tropic flame]

you need to get there and attune to the aetheryte

[faint flare]

Did you attune

[pulsar hawk]

yeah i attuned

[jade quartz]

See all mounts here

[tropic flame]

itll show up as gold saucer tp in the uldah page

[jade quartz]

https://ffxivcollect.com/mounts

Plenty cute

[faint flare]

Then it's under uldah

[jade quartz]

There are like 200 options

[outer lodge]

I found it in search ty ❤️

[faint flare]

In the teleport list

[pulsar hawk]

Ah thank you!!

[vast ferry]

There was that fat chocobo but that looks like a store thing

[jade quartz]

Can filter out premium and time limited ones

[vast ferry]

Are some mounts faster than others

[boreal storm]

No

They all reach the same speed, in time

[obsidian patio]

Only one on a technicality

[boreal storm]

Yeah SDS fenrir starts at +1 speed

[jade quartz]

SDS Fenrir starts out with 1 star speed

But all will unlock that via MSQ progress

[trail rivet]

what does the little person icon mean to the right of the server? am i crazy or is that not always there?

[jade quartz]

So fenrir just gives a slight buff during MSQ progression and that’s it

[boreal storm]

It also costs $30 so like

[jade quartz]

You’ve toggled RP walking

[trail rivet]

oh

wtf, i have.

how did i do that?

[jade quartz]

Toggle with NUM/ by default

[trail rivet]

oh

okay lol

thanks

[gaunt fable]

can i have 2 retainers of the same class?

[strange coral]

Yes

[jade quartz]

Yep

[boreal storm]

They can all be the same class if you felt like it

Don’t know why but you could

[static kelp]

I saw in a video that it looked like someone was able to make hotbars appear and disappear for when they wanted to switch gear sets. Is that a thing?

[boreal storm]

Gotta set up a macro for it

Should be in #protips-and-ui, I think

[gaunt fable]

i was told combat classes give u getter loot but i only have my gunbreaker

[static kelp]

Ah, I'll look into it

thx

[boreal storm]

That’s not true

[jade quartz]

Combat jobs can gather mob drops such as skins

But most players have a mix of retainers

[boreal storm]

Mob drops are kinda annoying to get normally, so make your lackey do it

[weak nova]

is it possible to bind hotbar abilities to mouse scroll?

[leaden ginkgo]

Just to make sure, i dont lose my chocobo saddlebag items when i switch data centers right?

[jade quartz]

No

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks

[jade quartz]

Nor retainers

They’re all part of your character inventory

[leaden ginkgo]

Roger

Oh one last question, is timer reset the same for all servers? (converted to their respective timezones)

by timer i mean roulettes and stuff

[true jolt]

Yes

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks

[gaunt fable]

i have miner, gsm and gnb, what'd you suggest?

[obsidian patio]

Nope

You’d probably need an external program to change what mouse wheel outputs

[boreal storm]

Retainers can’t be crafters, so uh you don’t have many options

[polar shale]

I applied for a world transfer without taking my items off the market. Went back in a few hours later and sorted all that. My question is: is there a 'transfer failed' confirmation email? Or just the accepted one? I can't apply for another transfer (3 day limit) and I just wanna know if it's still pending or if I boofed it

[jade quartz]

You can apply for another transfer immediately

The cooldown only applies between successful transfers

[polar shale]

So the fact that it won't let me at least means it's still pending?

[jade quartz]

When you say it won’t let you

What does that look like?

“Service unavailable”?

[polar shale]

"This service cannot be used within three days of your last Home World Transfer."

[jade quartz]

Then surely you successfully transferred?

[polar shale]

But I have no confirmation email and my character is still on the old data centre

[steep egret]

then its probably still pending

[jade quartz]

How long has it been?

[polar shale]

Just under a day, but about 7 hours since I went in and took my things off the market board

I wasn't sure if failed transfers instigated the cooldown though, so that's good to know

[jade quartz]

Hmm

The fact that you logged in might have effects

[polar shale]

Yeah that has me worried tbh

[jade quartz]

The instructions tell you not to do that so I dunno how it might change the process

[leaden ginkgo]

wait how long does it take to transfer?

[jade quartz]

A few minutes to a few hours

The system is being hammered with traffic so people are having highly variable results

[leaden ginkgo]

Roger

[jade quartz]

Mine took about 5mins

But I’ve heard two hours

[polar shale]

So chances are I messed mine up. But I wish it would tell me that / let me try again

[leaden ginkgo]

wait just to be clear, like i do my dailies at the same time every day on Eu datacenter.

would the reset still be the same time as when i do them on eu?

(on oce)

[boreal storm]

Resets happen at the same time

[steep egret]

reset times are the same on all servers

[boreal storm]

For everyone

[leaden ginkgo]

Roger

[pure copper]

for MNK, is dragon kick literally just a better bootshine?

[tepid stag]

no you alternate between the two, dragon kick makes your next bootshine crit

[pure copper]

wait but oppo oppo form already guarantees bootshine crit

[true jolt]

*Extra potency

[tepid stag]

sry my bad I was thinking of old mnk it is just extra potency now

[boreal storm]

Leaden fist makes boot hit harder

[true jolt]

310 bootshine with guarantee crit will be better than 320 DK with low chNce to rit

[pure copper]

it boosts bootshine from 180 to 310? dang...how is this not mentioend under traits or anything x.x

like i cant find an explanation for leaden fist buff anywhere in the actions and traits tab

[open iris]

just hit resistance rank 10 in bozja. how do i begin the castrum litore instance?

[boreal storm]

Do the quests

CLL will show up randomly like most CEs afterwards

[pliant mantle]

has the diadem been removed?

[boreal storm]

No, restoration is still around

[modest igloo]

3.0 diadem yes, but the SHB version is still in the game

[urban grotto]

where do I trade in art supply materials?

[upper cove]

@pure copper it should state in the tool tip that leaden fist potency is 310 for bootshine

[pure copper]

oh i was lookin ahead at skills

[upper cove]

Oh yeah if you're reading in game tool tips

[pliant mantle]

oh you just have to do it through the Aetheryte thanks

[upper cove]

They won't update until you unlock the relevant traits/skills

[upper cove]

Sounds like custom delivery turn ins

[urban grotto]

looks like charlemagne accepts them?

[boreal storm]

Is he unlocked

[urban grotto]

yeah but I did my turn ins already

[upper cove]

Then you can't turn them in for the week anymore

[urban grotto]

darn, guess I'll hold onto them lol

[upper cove]

Only 12 turn jn allowances a week, 6 per npc

[pure copper]

u get 12 turnins a week

[boreal storm]

And if he doesn’t want those next week, kinda screwed

[upper cove]

You could keep them yea, but no guarantees art supplies is what he wants next week

Unless you're still leveling him.

If the hearts are maxed alr, they likely rotate every week

[urban grotto]

alright then, thanks

[pure copper]

do monks really not get a ranged atk

[faint flare]

No

Your longest ranged skill is enlightenment as a line aoe

Doesn't really count tho

[true jolt]

I think its on bootshine
"Leaden fist potency: xxx"

The leaden fist desc is on dragin kick iirc

[sullen vine]

if trying to do ocean fishing and it says not accepting new recruits, that means i can't do the upcoming one right?

[primal gull]

read your tooltips 🙂

[true jolt]

Yeah they the only melee that doesnt have melee filler

Instesd you got six sided star if you need to disengange for for than 1 GCD

[boreal storm]

There’s a certain time window for ocean fishing, if you missed it just wait for the next trip

[pure copper]

youd think theyd give a sonic fist or something

[warm veldt]

how do I find people to do dalriada with me 😭

[warm drift]

can u make bunny fates spawn faster in eureka or are they just on a timer cd

[primal gull]

Timer.

Although they won't spawn if someone has a bunny still from the previous FATE

[true jolt]

Play on peak hour for more chance people doing dal?

Open PF for dal?

[little crest]

yo quick question, im a new player and im doing the coils questchain but im having a hard time getting a carry for an unsynced run, are there any forums or places on this disc to look for synced runs?

[warm veldt]

That's fair, somehow always forget about pf lol

[primal gull]

Why would you need a carry for an unsynced run? Just....unsync it yourself?

[little crest]

im lvl 50

im doing the questchain for the story

[lament gust]

is there anywhere in game you can reset your cooldowns to practice rotations or somethign?

[primal gull]

Stone Sea and Sky is what you are looking for

it's a built in place where you can practice rotations against a striking dummy

And pretty sure cooldowns are reset when you zone in

[lament gust]

oh nice thanks

was just using a random dummy and not liking having to stand around waiting for cooldowns between tries

[urban grotto]

where do I find level 80 gathering scrips gear?

[primal gull]

Any scrip exchange NPC, assuming you have unlocked the Eulmore house of splendors

[tacit jungle]

Any scrip vendor

They're all the same

[urban grotto]

how do I unlock eulmores house of splendors?

[last mural]

U could just try creating an entry on Party Finder. I believe there will be a few people willing to help u since if it's your 1st clear, everyone gets free tomes and Wonderous Tails counters

U can simply create a PF from the 4th coil onwards. If it's not peak hours, try shouting in Limsa

Just make sure u advertise your run as unsync'd and first clear for tomes

[little crest]

just got someone 😄

[static kelp]

is there a way to use /hotbar copy without specifying a class/job?

[limber hound]

well it has to copy from somewhere

[static kelp]

like, the current job

[primal gull]

yes, you can /hotbar copy current to specify your current job

[static kelp]

ah, thanks

[primal gull]

[urban grotto]

best collectables to gather for scrip exchange at level 83?

[raven bolt]

is potd the fastest way from 53-61

[viral flower]

do you need to buy endwalker dlc to change ur race to male viera?

[naive ridge]

yea

[viral flower]

aww

[arctic barn]

I believe it's only shadowbringers you need for it, but you can't purchase that separately so

[pure copper]

is ti even worth holding these crafters delineations?

[solemn jewel]

If you already own Shadowbringers you can, otherwise you need EW

[viral flower]

u just save my money

ty

[naive ridge]

nope

[obsidian patio]

They’re used for specific specialist actions

So if you’re not using the actions, then sell them

[cosmic pilot]

Does Gatherer and Craftmanship materia almost the same price with each other?

With each materia grade(?)

[modest igloo]

it varies depending on supply and server demand

[cosmic pilot]

I was thinking of doing a trade if it’s similar 😆

[naive ridge]

In my experience crafter's are generally worth more, but it still depends on supply and demand. check your marketboard prices if you intend to sell or trade

[cosmic pilot]

I see. Thanks!

[ancient ferry]

Someones knows if the rates for timeworn artifacts in palace of the dead are good?

[dapper oyster]

I want more gil, which doh should i choose?

[true jolt]

Averaging 25% chance increase for every 50 floor

0-50 = 25% per 10 floor
50-100 = 50% per 10 floor
And so on

[ancient ferry]

wow then i don't know why there isnt another method to get them because filling DR is almost impossible now

[true jolt]

Yeah i was alone this morning and got blasted XD

My only tip is try on peak hour + open PF for DR

[shrewd kiln]

is there a site that shows what full glam sets look like, updated for endwalker? not like gamerescape showing 1 piece at a time

[scenic river]

Do you have to have flight in this area to finish this quest?

[true jolt]

https://www.ffxivcollection.com/

[outer lodge]

I think so

[true jolt]

You can walk there, via the way you walk on MSQ

[scenic river]

Oh yeah! starnge that it doesn't show up on the map

[true jolt]

Yeah, i think because its not "original terrain" formed during [REDACTED] (You know what i mean XD)

[scenic river]

ye I understand

[spice imp]

i dont understand

the stats are lower but the item level is higher?? why

[true jolt]

Cause its not HQ

NQ Crafted gear have lower stats than usual to the point HQ is mandatory for it to be usable (especially at lvl cap)

[true jolt]

HQ one have 34 dexterity which is the "correct" stat for the ilvl

[fast talon]

so im new to being caught up to current content, will 6.1 introduce alternate methods to augment tome gear? and if so, how would it work? by the tail end of shadowbringers, it needed a drop from each alliance raid to augment tome gear (or hunts).

[warped nest]

Some gears has HQ and NQ (high and normal quality) variants

[vestal lark]

Why do i have 8 character slot even tho i bought starter edtion?

[warped nest]

HQ has the correct stat matching their ilvl

[vestal lark]

I should get 1 cuz entry sup?

[warped nest]

8 characters, 1 per world

The pricier one is 40 characters, up to 8 per world

[vestal lark]

Oh

[spice imp]

oh lol

[warped nest]

You are on entry, you are fine

[vestal lark]

Ok thx

[warped nest]

NQ gear is fine under two context: it massively out stat your current stuff and/or you needed the ilvl increase, or when you are gearing your combat retainer, combat retainer only cares about ilvl, not stat

[vestal lark]

Btw how much time can i re design my character cuz i think i messed up evwn tho i was doing it for hour

[warped nest]

As long as you need

Oh

You can get an item called fantasia

Which allows you to remake your character (doesn't include name change, this is a separate thing)

[true jolt]

After finishing 2.0 story without skipping (buy story skip) you get free item to re edit as much as you want

[warped nest]

Doing the in game story will eventually reward you one fantasia

For more, you need to pay for it

With mogstation purchases

[true jolt]

10$

[vestal lark]

Also can i get more face structures and stuffs like this

[warped nest]

What you see in game now is what you get

[vestal lark]

Cuz the set ones are not my favor

[warped nest]

You pick one of the set then tune from there

You should be able to fully customize your character before you start playing

[vestal lark]

So i cant like buy hair styles for ex?

[thorn thicket]

Is there a bot command for checking race/clan starting stats?

[warped nest]

Changing hairstyle doesn't require fantasia

There are in game NPC you can hire to get a new hair cut

[pliant mantle]

is there a way to set a timer in game to go off every 20 minutes?

[gritty oracle]

It really doesn't matter. It's like five points of difference at maximum.

[warped nest]

No clue, and it doesn't matter

[vestal lark]

Oh so the stuffs cant normally get change like gender require fantasia

[thorn thicket]

Aware it doesn't matter, got someone who was just curious about a couple races and none of us in NN can answer off the top of our heads

[tropic flame]

im sure you can find the stats online

[warped nest]

Just guess based on typical RPG tropes

Hyur is probably balanced

Miqote probably has slightly more dexterity

[gritty oracle]

I remember Veena has a higher starting Mind than Rava because I noticed it while fantasiaing like a week back and I found it funny

[warped nest]

Yup. I believe that you can change hairstyle and make up freely in game, just pay a small sum of gils

[vestal lark]

Oh that is nice

[warped nest]

Like one or two thousand gils

I think

[limber hound]

2000

[leaden ginkgo]

Yes it's really cheap, make up hair style and similiar, just nothing altering the body

[limber hound]

May seem like a lot, but only at first

[leaden ginkgo]

The race stats really really don't matter

[warped nest]

2000 is like 5 teleport

[solemn jewel]

5?

[warped nest]

Give or take

[solemn jewel]

2

[thorn thicket]

Not even 2

[warped nest]

Their character is pretty new

[solemn jewel]

Gridania to Bentbranch 5 times sure

[warped nest]

5 seems right

[vestal lark]

this bremondt guy talking so weird
And why there is no voice acting?

[limber hound]

ARR no budget for voices

[static kelp]

Is there some way to get /hotbar display to work in Wolves' Den Pier?

[thorn thicket]

From Shirogane/Kugane to Labyrinthos for gil, is 1978 gil to zone 6 is 2178 gil

[limber hound]

It becomes more prevalent from HW onwards

[warped nest]

@static kelp /pvphotbar

[vestal lark]

This is really annoying

[static kelp]

ah, I see
thx

[warped nest]

Np

[solemn jewel]

Even newer expansion have a lot of just text

[vestal lark]

This is the 2nd dlc?

[solemn jewel]

If reading isn't ur thing

[warped nest]

First expansion

ARR is lvl 1-50 content, it is referred as 2.0

Because there was a 1.X FFXIV

[limber hound]

ARR is the base game, because 1.0 got the yeet

[warped nest]

That failed

[vestal lark]

I dont mind reading but if its too much weird takling guys like this bremondt it gets annoying

[warped nest]

Heavensward is lvl 50-60 contents, it is referred as 3.0 or 3.X

[limber hound]

talk like a pirate, does he

I also find that wonk

[warped nest]

Unfortunately it is what it is

[vestal lark]

Like new gangesta member who is not used to it

[versed bramble]

New to crafting here, I am at a quest for BSM that requires I get Master Blacksmith III but I can't find it. I went to the Rowena vendor at the Foundation but she doesn't have it.

[limber hound]

But it's just limited to pirate types

[warped nest]

Take note that this stuff is from 2013

[vestal lark]

Patching where

[limber hound]

(nearly) everyone else speaks regular english with slight antiquation

[last mural]

Hmm? She should have it, are u sure u checked the right section?

[versed bramble]

I've checked through all of them.

[last mural]

Did u check the right subsection for Master recipes?

[versed bramble]

There are no recipes anywhere in here.

[limber hound]

This is the Ishgard vendor

[versed bramble]

Yes that is what I see.

[limber hound]

seems like you'll need to get to Revenant's Toll or Idyllshire

[versed bramble]

Okay, I'll tp to Rev's.

[limber hound]

I take it back

They're under supplies

[vestal lark]

At least when there is voice acting its good

[last mural]

@versed bramble

[leaden granite]

potd is still the fastest way to lvl from ~50-60? i noticed it slows down a lot, but i guess thats the case for other methods aswell? like dungeons

[versed bramble]

Mine doesn't have a Master Recipes category.

[warped nest]

Dungeons eventually average out to about 7 runs to get two levels

[last mural]

Try checking Idleshyre then...

I can't log in to check the NPC at Foundation myself atm

[warped nest]

And ignoring queue time, leveling dungeons should always be the best choice to get exp

[limber hound]

Long shot, but did you unlock the master recipes thingy in Revenant's Toll to begin with

something something books 1 & 2

[last mural]

https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Just_Tooling_Around

[versed bramble]

I just figured it out. Yeah I have to finish that quest first.

Thanks for the help!

[last mural]

I think that unlocks Master Tomes 1 and 2 only though?

[versed bramble]

No I see them all thankfully.

[last mural]

No, i meant Master Tomes I and II require that quest, and obtained only from a specific NPC in Mor Dhona
III onwards can be gotten from Scrip Vendors

[vestal lark]

Should i open ff14 lodestone play guide in my default browser?

What is it anyway

[versed bramble]

I was able to purchase III from the vendor for scrips immediately.

[warped nest]

@vestal lark don't need

[ancient ferry]

well it seems the rate is lower or i had bad luck, because two runs in 50-60 and it didn't drop lol

[fossil ruin]

Can anyone please help me track down the Odin and Behemoth FATES?

[limber hound]

With proper essences, delubrum can be 8-manned or even less

plus it's just a fun raid

[last mural]

Wait... fk...

Are we allowed to ad other discords?

[warped nest]

Yes

[last mural]

Okay, phew

[warped nest]

Provided that it is for helping other players

[last mural]

Try this discord:
https://discord.gg/aetherhunts

[fossil ruin]

Thank you!

[warped nest]

This is perfectly fine

[last mural]

React to the FATE-related role to get pinged when that FATE spawns

[ancient ferry]

But it takes a lot of time, I was in 7 party and I don't know if it was more than 40 minutes without wipes

[warped nest]

@last mural there are so many to XIV that this one single discord alone cannot do it all

[vestal lark]

Is it normal that the character dont turn back when i press w
It just go back without facing to back

[warped nest]

I know that there are discord for doing old stuff at min ilvl

Discord for eureka

Etc

[last mural]

??? Pretty sure that discord covers all boss FATES though?

Even the EW ones

[warped nest]

I'm saying that it is fine to share other discord here

[limber hound]

as in, your char is facing the camera and moves toward the camera when pressing W?

[last mural]

Oh.....

[last mural]

Try Legacy controls

[vestal lark]

Where to find

[vestal lark]

Character system?

[last mural]

Character config > Movement settings

[vestal lark]

Yeah found it thx

[scarlet lantern]

I have a ffxiv Steam NA key I want to sell. Is there any website where I can do that?

[last mural]

Depending on your preferred movement method, u may also want to consider rebinding your L and R to Strafe L/R instead

[vestal lark]

Wdym

[last mural]

I dislike the way Legacy rotates the camera when u move left or right

So i rebinded my Left and Right movement to Strafe instead

[vestal lark]

What does Strafe mean

[last mural]

Moving left or right

hmm...

Doesn't exactly explain it better

why don't u try it for yourself first

See which controls suits u better

[vestal lark]

I will try it and see

[last mural]

Standard vs Legacy, Move vs Strafe

[elder vault]

strafe is moving side to side while facing foward, move is your character turns in said direction then moves forward

[grizzled smelt]

which order to join in ffxiv

Serpent Officer, Flame Officer, Storm Officer?

[limber hound]

Do you like yellow, red, or black

[grizzled smelt]

red

[limber hound]

Maelstrom

[slim lily]

Whats the coolest/edgiest non dlc armor

[vestal lark]

Move seems better to me

[limber hound]

DRK lv60 artifact armor, probably

[grizzled smelt]

I joined Maelstrom

[limber hound]

Also cool and edgy aren't exactly the same thing

[last mural]

You say it like cool = edgy...

[limber hound]

dood said non-dlc

[elder vault]

use whichever you are most comfortable with

[slim lily]

Just started and im playing the trial lol first mmo so just testing the waters lmao

[arctic barn]

Welcome :)

[sturdy brook]

is this hairstyle player accesable? I can't find it on the menu

[green grail]

yes

could be hyur exclusive though

[vestal lark]

How can i make the camera rotated to my face diraction

[limber hound]

isn't exclusive

[rain tree]

what level does it usually take you to have access to all housing except shirogane

[true jolt]

15 iirc

[rain tree]

perfect. thanks

[true jolt]

You need tto the side quest to unlock each area though

[vestal lark]

Like automaticlly

[limber hound]

What do you mean by that

You want to see your char's face as they move forward?

[fringe canyon]

So I'm still getting an abundance of unkown errors trying to do the world transfer. Are they still congested? cus i thought its smoothed out sort of by now at least from what i read.

[steep egret]

as in, the camera faces where your character is facing, automatically?
you can't do that with Legacy controls
Standard controls, the camera is controlled by where your character faces
Legacy, uncouples the camera and character, so your character moves independent of the camera
you can't have the camera follow you, AND use W to have your character face the camera

[vestal lark]

Aha i see

[steep egret]

not sure how controller works, there maybe an option that works there, if they can use one thumbstick to move the char, and another for the camera separately

but ive never used controller

[jade quartz]

In standard mode, when you begin moving the camera snaps behind your character.

[vestal lark]

I am not that proud of my character to do this

[steep egret]

honestly, i suck at making good looking characters
so i prefer MMOs where character options are not infinite, like ff14
i haaate making a character in something like Skyrim, or BDO. i just end up using one of the stock ones, then changing a few things and calling it a day

i think my char looks cute 😄

[gritty lynx]

does squadron battle manual stack with Heat of Battle FC buff?

[green grail]

no

[rain tree]

yes

[rain tree]

really?

ive been using manuals and they dont cancel each other

both icons show

[rain tree]

oooh

im dumb haha

time to leave my fc then

[gritty lynx]

Thanks, my FC constantly has Heat of Battle. Think I'll get repair manual or spiritbond instead

[last mural]

Perhaps the Odin armor or the Behemoth King/Queen armor

[slow peak]

I own XIV

but like

this is happening

help?

[visual sandal]

stormblood relics are eureka and shb are bozja right?

[slow peak]

my friend says yes. he's on a call w me

[hearty jacinth]

steam version of the game while trying to use the SE launcher gives this error, probs other way around too

[slow peak]

So what do I do

Did I buy the steam version for nothing then?

💀

[visual sandal]

should work if you use steam ver

[slow peak]

I'm on the steam version

I originally used the SE launcher

[fickle meadow]

trying to transfer DCs anyone know why this is happening?

[hot eagle]

you need to use the non steam launcher or if you want to play on steam make a new account and start anew

steam and non steam aren't compatable, the screenshot of your mogstation shows you own non steam so with that account you cant use steam

[lament gust]

is there a way to like, strafe the camera in gpose? like move horizontally?

[slow peak]

So what do I do about not owning the steam version? 😦

or well owning it

Since I bought it

[leaden ginkgo]

I dunno if anyone might know this, but if i change server does my current GC turnover change?

like the list of items

[delicate field]

Potd

[warm snow]

No

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks

[delicate field]

Whats a GC turnover? Don't they all sell the same stuff all the time

Oh do you mean turn in?

[hot eagle]

if you want to play on steam, make a new account and start from the beginning or accept you wasted money since you cant refund it on steam

[obsidian patio]

Nope

[lament gust]

:|

I hate that

literally every single time I enter gpose I wish I could just move the cam over a little ;-;

[warm snow]

Pretty sure you can move the camera a bit

[leaden ginkgo]

why is this empty?

[warm snow]

Can't remember the exact controls cuz controller

[warm snow]

#lodestone-news-na

[leaden ginkgo]

Thank you

[leaden ginkgo]

There's no additional steps to claim the free transfer right, i just have to choose an oce server?

[warm snow]

You have to hope it works

[leaden ginkgo]

roger

uh oh, did my transfer bug?

I cant see the next button

sorry ignore that, it was loading

[restive sand]

is it worth going out of my way to start collecting all of the aether currents or just continue on with the msq

in HW

[green grail]

try to collect them while doing msq

lots of 3.1+ msq will be in HW zones so flying will help

and it's required for some sidequest lines like alexander or shadows of mhach raids

[warm drift]

pick up the blue + quests that give aether also and do em if u happen to go by

[warm snow]

You're gonna be all over the zones between 3.1-3.55 alone so yes you will get good use out them

Not to mention hunts and gathering etc. Etc.

[warm drift]

some of the blue + are in ishgard and idyilshire too

[warm snow]

You know we have

[warm drift]

effort pressing emote button

[restive sand]

awesome ty!

[jovial garnet]

Anyone know why I might be getting this error on literally every OCE realm:

Is it a separate process to transfer their and not through the mogstation?

[frank wigeon]

hey im trying to farm white scrips as much as possible with limited time, may i ask whats the highest amount with less item ?

[obsidian patio]

i personally did the 89 ALC collectable since i was nearly capped on gemstones and can't buy the vouchers yet

the 89 BSM one is also a potential good one since it doesn't use monster materials

same for 89 GSM and 89 CRP

[frank wigeon]

thank you ❤️ i see them and i agree with you. ive been doing carpenter and the BSM is probably the best with crystals

[last mural]

89 GSM doesn't need bicolor mats yeah, but it requires a truck load of components

ALC is definitely the way to go, especially if u regularly send your combat retainer(s) on hunting explorations for Berkenam sap

[tropic wave]

hi is this where i ask help about the P1-4 raids?

[warm snow]

For a mechanic you don't understand yes, for people, just use the duty finder and queue like everyone else

[tropic wave]

our group is having trouble on P4 Phase 2 (act 2), where we break 2nd fire tethers and are still dying. We're all grouped up as well for the soak

[storm iris]

Has anyone actually received the free 15 days thing yet?

I hit 30 on sophia like 2 days ago and I didnt get anything.

I've never recieved the promo before as well, so its definitely not that

[warm snow]

Someone fucked up something cuz you got a damage down, best guess someone missed their tower soak

Or the wind tethers broke and dominoes

[tropic wave]

that's the thing, towers havent gone off yet. i also watched also clears and they survived with the debuff down

maybe we have to wait for towers to go off first?

[warm snow]

Yes but they didn't get a damage down

[faint flare]

They only take one source of damage

[warm snow]

Damage down = mechanic not done right

[faint flare]

From what I'm seeing

Which is 129k from the fire

[tropic wave]

https://youtu.be/bG_amkPl0V4?t=779

xenos had the debuff down here and still survived

everyone else had it too

[warm snow]

He didn't get a DAMAGE DOWN

Which you did

[tropic wave]

ah dmg down

[warm snow]

Which means a mech wasn't done properly

And I can't see the entire arena

So you're gonna have to figure it out amongst yourselves

[faint flare]

There's only one source of damage hitting them and it looks like it's done correctly

[warm snow]

But there's still a damage down

Which means something somewhere fucked up

[faint flare]

I don't see anything that would give them that

[tropic wave]

another attempt

[warm snow]

And another damage down

[faint flare]

The fire is giving it for some reason

[tropic wave]

if u watch the xenos video above, he also gets dmg down

[green grail]

you should have a wind tether somewhere, if you're not the fire tether

unless you're doing another strat

[tropic wave]

our wind tether never broke

[faint flare]

That would be in the other group like the first vid

[tropic wave]

the only thing we've noticed that we've been doing thats different from clear vids is that we broke our fire tethers before towers went off

[faint flare]

I legit see nothing that would make this a fail. Other may maybe breaking slightly early

[green grail]

then why don't you have it

[faint flare]

And the game snapshotting the vuln

He was the fire dps

One dps and one healer/tank get fire

They broke dps first

[green grail]

fair enough

[faint flare]

What's the timer on the healer fire

Cause that's legit the only thing I can think of

In that it's expiring

Before it breaks

Thus being failed

We break healer first then dps

And I think xeno did anyway

[tropic wave]

ah we break dps fire first

if thats the case then it might be it

[faint flare]

Yeah I think it's the debuff expiring

Double check the healer debuff timer

And if it's shorter than dps fire then it HAS to break first

I don't think you can ever do dps first

[tropic wave]

we're looking our the VODs and see it now, it was definitely the tether timers

[warm snow]

That make sense

I couldnt see the tether timers in your videos cuz you were doing it that way

[faint flare]

The timers are meant to clue you into the order it's done

With shortest timers resolving first

[sturdy brook]

Can you dismiss a retainer and hire it over again? I'm not happy with the look I made for them

[warm snow]

Retainer fantasia is probably easier

Cuz then you don't have to level them up all over again

[sturdy brook]

Does it change the personality that you set afterward

?

[warm snow]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Never used it

[true jolt]

yes you can iirc

[heady bramble]

How long does the "Congestion" status usually remain for? (e.g. Oceania)

[inland quarry]

a bit less then a patch

don't expect it to be removed before 6.1

[solemn jewel]

Oceania doesn't have the congested status

If u mean unavailable to make new characters, that fluctuates

[obsidian patio]

!faq serverlock

[zinc orbit]

Why can't I enter this server?

Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.

[inland quarry]

if oceania is "congested" you probably mean a server you can't make a character on, that changes every half hours or so, just refresh or try later during the day

[heady bramble]

Ahh okay thanks guys - woops should've mentioned Ravana

[warm snow]

2 days on and already server locking. They grow up so fast...

[glad comet]

So uh, what's happening here...?

[inland quarry]

wasn't familiar searched error online from waht I'm reading just relog

should fix the problem

[obsidian patio]

what are you trying to do, exactly?

from my personal experience, that error occurs with trying to enter a story solo instance when the servers are congested

[glad comet]

its attempting to finish the lavender beds quets

on materia

[obsidian patio]

might be the servers struggling then, best to try later when less people are on

[oak quarry]

this maybe?

[glad comet]

people are saying that you can't go in until 6.1

[open coral]

Housing servers aren’t open yet is my assumption. I had the same problem last night

[glad comet]

SE why do you do this to me

i just want to finish the quest

anyways, thanks

[oak quarry]

island full everyone homeless

looks like those quests aren't doable yet for oceanic serverrs

[frosty marlin]

Wait.. so I'm wasting my time trying to stay awake for hours to randomly refresh to try and make my first character in Leviathan? It's completely shut off and won't open to new users if traffic lowers?

[obsidian patio]

correct

World statuses aren't expected to change until patch 6.1, which won't be until March/April

[frosty marlin]

... it would be super cool if the game better explained that. I wouldn't have bothered registering yet--ALL of my family and almost all of my friends are on Leviathan. Which I watched have open status last week and stressed about, but they'd shut off free play the day I figured out I can run on my laptop.

[solemn jewel]

You can just start in any other world on primal

You can visit leviathan and play with ur friends until the game allows transfers to there again

[patent citrus]

Yeah, the only stuff thats server locked is fc

Choose the server name you like in primal, then world hop to levi

[frosty marlin]

Sorry, I literally had to go calm down for a few. I live far away from my family and that has been a huge draw for me to play. I have been watching the server webpage for two days and refreshing intermittently for over 12 hours. Including alarms to wake up and check once I started falling asleep.

Where can I find info on what's limited between servers? Can I still join my sister's free company?

[hidden cypress]

cant join an fc on another world

[patent citrus]

Only fc is limited, you cant join your sister's fc

If you want, you can create cross world linkshell, almost the same thing

[leaden ginkgo]

What’s the average bard’s personal DPS in endgame?

[inland quarry]

can check all of that stuff on fflogs

[solemn jewel]

You can't go to a wedding on leviathan and as said housing and free company

But you can transfer when they open again

[leaden ginkgo]

ty

[solemn jewel]

Otherwise you can meet up via home visit

And of course party up cross world's

[patent citrus]

Ah right wedding too

!faq worldvisit

[zinc orbit]

World Visit System

The World Visit System allows players to visit other worlds on the same data center. After hopping to another world, you are then able to do almost everything you are normally able to such as partying up to take on duties. Click the link below to find out how it works, and what restrictions there are.

More information

[obsidian patio]

has all of the restrictions

[frosty marlin]

Also kind of pissed at my sister for not telling me any of this, b/c she knows I'm brand new--she bought the game for me for my birthday this week--but she has played a while and just finished Endwalker MSQ. I'd might have waited to start playing, and I certainly wouldn't have screwed up my sleep schedule trying to get in.

[obsidian patio]

the main ones are FCs, housing, accessing your mail/retainers, and a few small other things

[inland quarry]

brotherly love... im used to that

[frosty marlin]

Thank you for this info ❤️

[obsidian patio]

world visit queues have calmed down enough for the most part so hopping between worlds should be instant nowadays

or very short wait

[lament gust]

is there an actual way to find a person on your friends list that you aren't in a party with? or do you just have to fly around in that area and hope you spot them?

[inland quarry]

fly around

[lament gust]

suffering

[inland quarry]

or just /tell and ask them

[lament gust]

they're afk !

[inland quarry]

welp

gl

[lament gust]

wanted to turn up when they got back

but ||Elpis|| is a big place

[tight slate]

Can someone explain to me how I can get the game on ps5 if I am a free trial on pc right now while keeping my current account progress? (I don't have a ps5 yet I was gonna buy it next week)

[inland quarry]

oh no ;-;

might take u a while if they are in ||elpis||

[warm snow]

You can't

[tight slate]

how come I was told I could

[warm snow]

You'll have to buy the full game from psn

Free trials are locked to the platform

Pretty sure that's in

[warm snow]

!faq freetrial

[zinc orbit]

Free Trial Download and Limitations

Click Here to download the Free Trial

Click Here to see the Free Trial limitations

[tight slate]

it doesn't say anything about that

at least not there

[warm snow]

Huh, so it doesn't. Doesn't change the fact that you're locked to your platform

[tight slate]

are you sure about that?

[warm snow]

Positive

Besides you can't register for free trial anywhere

[steep egret]

its been like that for at least 4 years, probably more

[tight slate]

because a friend told me I could keep my account progress that's why I am asking

[steep egret]

you can, when you buy the game

[warm snow]

You can, if you buy the game

[tight slate]

I don't get it

[warm snow]

Which you need your ps5 to do

Free trial accounts

[tight slate]

yes

[warm snow]

Are locked to a platform

If you upgrade to a full account

[steep egret]

free players are locked, paying players are not

[warm snow]

You won't be locked to a platform

[tight slate]

guess I'll have to wait and see

[warm snow]

Idk if Sony reopened sales, cuz steam took a while

[tight slate]

it didn't

[warm snow]

No, they did

19.99 for the base game

[tight slate]

I am not sure if you understood my question

because I am kinda confused

[warm snow]

Sales were closed for a while cuz game too popular

[tight slate]

I know

[warm snow]

Sales reopened Tuesday on se store steam took a while to reopen

I wasn't sure if Sony had reopened

So I went to check

They have

[ancient ferry]

seriously, im running 51-60 of potd for timeworn for 5 times and it didn't drop a single time, i can't believe the chance of drop is 50%

[warm snow]

Whoever told you the drop rate is 50% is lying

We don't know the drop rate

It's all calculated server side.

We literally can't know the drop rate

[normal tusk]

I'm assuming if I got in the level 30 game time bonus before a few years ago I can't get it again ?

[warm snow]

Once per account per data center afaik

[normal tusk]

So I can get it again?

[warm snow]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[ancient ferry]

well second time in a row someones lies to me here

[ancient ferry]

no you can't if you already got it

[warm snow]

It's possible to roll a dice 10 times and get all 1s. Such is rng

[normal tusk]

Well I assumed so I didn't know if getting it 4 years ago made a difference

[warm snow]

Looks like once only

[junior walrus]

is limbo gear better than hq classical gear?

[warm snow]

Depends on the substats

[junior walrus]

wdym?

[oak lily]

how good is the exp from Fates in Tempest?

[regal pawn]

It's ok

But that's about it

[warped nest]

When two gears are on the same ilvl (assuming HQ for crafted gears) then they would have the same primary stats

[regal pawn]

On a budget, a mix could do good
But inf budget, classical pentameld beats it

[warped nest]

For combat jobs, vitality, strength, dexterity, intelligence, and mind are primary stats

[obsidian patio]

yeah if you don't take advantage of overmelding the Classical gear, then the two gear sets are basically identical in power

but if you do, then the Classical gear is better assuming the secondary stats aren't terrible compared to their equivalent limbo item

[warped nest]

On the in game tooltips the top two stats are the priority stat

Others are secondaries

Certain jobs favors specific secondary stats

[junior walrus]

okay ty, my classical gear is already melded / still melding

[obsidian patio]

to give an example, Limbo Gloves of Fending are crit/det, while classical gloves of fending are SkS/Tenacity. If you don't need the Skill Speed then the Limbo gloves are much better than the classical

[ancient ferry]

it is one time only, i did it because someone in this server lied to me saying you can double dip and i didn't get it

[covert marlin]

hiii, why is the potency same as the one I have?

I haven't accept the quest yet

[warped nest]

!action Ruin II

[zinc orbit]

**Ruin II** : lvl 30 ACN SMN (300 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(1.5 second base cast time)

Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 270.

Powered by XIVAPI

[warped nest]

!trait broil mastery

[zinc orbit]

**Broil Mastery** : lvl 54 SCH

Upgrades Ruin to Broil and increases the potency of Ruin II and Art of War to 160.

Powered by XIVAPI

[obsidian patio]

kupo seems to be outdated on that.

[obsidian patio]

Can't quite say for sure, according to Garland tools your Ruin 2 should be at 140 potency instead of 160 without the trait

[sterile flower]

I just went back to start leveling my Summoner after a long ass time,
It's level 40 and I have no idea what to do for the new rotation.

[warped nest]

@sterile flower watch weskalber on YouTube

[earnest obsidian]

Hello would this be the chat to get help on my BLM? Im having a very hard time surviving in the heavsnword main quests. Everything i look up about is confusing since most guides arent for lvl 53 😛

[sterile flower]

I'll check it out

[warped nest]

They have a beginner video on Endwalker summoner

[covert marlin]

hmm I just it's just visual bug

[regal pawn]

Have you bought Ironworks gear?
