oh that pic is very helpful thank you! and where is hat gear? isgard?

regal pawn
#

You can go to Limsa

warped nest
#

When you are questing in the open map, remember to bring up your chocobo as battle companion

regal pawn
#

Near the main aetheryte

#

The Splendors Vendor, blue bag

#

iLVL 130

frosty marlin
#

UPDATE: I have been trying to get on the wrong flipping server for 13 hours. I crossed up the magic sword with the dragon.

They're all on Excalibur.

So. Good for me that Leviathan has been locked after all?

warped nest
#

If you are on lvl 53 ish Heavensward story

#

Shouldn't you have some i115 gears from msq rewards?

#

And down the line, lvl 53 dungeon will reward you i130 gears too (different from the i130 Ironworks)

earnest obsidian
#

okay thank you! for the chocobo help i know i did a quest a while back to unlock it but then never did anything with it will it be underlevel?

warped nest
#

It will match your level

earnest obsidian
#

and i do have good gear i think its my roatiton thats im messing up

inland quarry
#

anyone can recommend me a good single target high potency blu spell?

earnest obsidian
#

and awesome!

#

thank you for the help everyone 🙂

warped nest
#

But seeing that you don't use it a lot, your battle companion won't have as many skills

obsidian patio
warped nest
#

As it helps you out in open world combat more, your chocobo will gain exp and rank up

obsidian patio
#

otherwise, just pick any 220 potency spell that you like spamming

warped nest
#

Ranking up allows them to learn more skills

inland quarry
warped nest
#

And be even more helpful

regal pawn
#

Go grab choco meteor

earnest obsidian
#

as long as the chocbo can take the hits i can dps the tagerts down i just cant take the hits too 😛

!action sleep

**Sleep** : lvl 10 THM ACN BLM SMN RDM BLU (800 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(2.5 second base cast time)

Puts target and all nearby enemies to sleep.
Duration: 30s
Cancels auto-attack upon execution.

obsidian patio
#

chocobo isn't great at tanking since they can't keep themselves alive well

regal pawn
#

People sleep (ha) on sleep

obsidian patio
#

and have a hard time holding targets

earnest obsidian
#

ah okay i didt know it could heal too 😛

warped nest
earnest obsidian
#

#

!action chocometeor

**Choco Meteor** : lvl 1 BLU (200 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(2.0 second base cast time)

Deals unaspected damage to target and all enemies nearby it with a potency of 200 for the first enemy, and 50% less for all remaining enemies.
Potency increases to 300 when partied with your personal chocobo.

Blue Magic

A destructive ability employed by red chocobos wherein the dust and dirt in the area is drawn up into one solid mass, heated until it glows, then dropped on a target from on high. It is unsurprising, then, that these feathery fiends─also known as courser chocobos─are greeted with near-universal terror.

Obtained

Courser Chocobo / The Dravanian Forelands (34, 28)

Type: Magic
Aspect: None

#

Also, your chocobo also does damage

#

Might as well have it out

regal pawn
#

Free healer

warm snow
#

Just don't use it as a tank

inland quarry
#

kk gotta get a shitton of gysahls then

warm snow
#

They fucking suck at tanking

inland quarry
#

don't really need him to tank, white wind makes blu not have to worry about hp almost ever which is nice

warm snow
#

I mean yeah, but it's also a gcd you could spend doing damage

regal pawn
fathom glacier
#

where do i get replica version of my relic weapon?

regal pawn
#

Depends on the relic

#

ARR - vendor near the forge
HW - egg node
SHB - the lady in back left, behind the node

warm snow
#

Usually a vendor near where you got the original

fathom glacier
#

let say paladin weapon, i saw a dude with a zeta weapon, but it was Replicate in stead of the real deal

warm snow
#

Not that kind of depends on the relic

regal pawn
#

They finished zeta wep and got a replica

#

You have to get it first

obsidian patio
#

that would be the ARR relic fully done

fathom glacier
#

is it for that weapon type only or all relic?

regal pawn
#

Then you can make replicas

warm snow
#

You can't get replicas of shit you ain't unlocked yourself

regal pawn
#

All relics have replicas

warm snow
#

That's why they're replicas

#

Copies of an original

fathom glacier
#

Sadge damn

#

well i guess that going to be a end game content once i don't have much to do

warm snow
#

What kind of idiot would spend their endgame getting all the relics

fathom glacier
#

**Mission Ceruleum Voucher** **:** Miscellany : ilvl 1

Proof of purchase for a single tank of airship-grade refined ceruleum. Alas, it has long since passed its date of validity.

obsidian patio
#

yes

#

same thing with mission ceruleum

trim yacht
#

ok ty tossing

limber hound
#

where kettles

obsidian patio
#

As in the Kettle Fists? you need to complete any Zeta weapon

#

oh the visual picture above

#

didn't load for me

limber hound
#

Actually I said it as a joke, but also was sorta wondering that myself

#

Does it need further grinding

obsidian patio
#

yes

#

it's basically a short rehash of the relic series as a joke

#

basic kettle fists

#

Zenith Kettle Fists

#

And Kettle Fists Nexus, the last one

oak lily
#

why

limber hound
#

not

oak lily
#

is that actually the Monk relic

obsidian patio
#

because Gerolt wanted to make the best kettles ever

#

no

#

it's basically a 2nd relic for them

limber hound
#

monk gets two relics

inland quarry
#

are all of blu's spells 200-220 potency?

#

beside stuff like final sting

green grail
#

most GCDs yes

lavish vortex
#

What’s the best website for timed nodes alerts nowadays?

green grail

so that you can adjust your filler to whatever elemental resistance an enemy could have

Does FF XIV have a global chat?

twilit arch
#

no

green grail
twilit arch
#

novice network is global but is limited to only mentor and new players/returnees

so its not available for everyone, plus only so many can be in NN at once

inland quarry
twilit arch
#

there's nothing like trade chat in wow, etc

inland quarry
#

like from final coil

obsidian patio
#

Unfortunately no

green grail
#

no, that's a summoner thing

ye I have choco meteor

lavish vortex
inland quarry
#

at least I get eruption, which is a pretty cool spell

prisma fulcrum
#

my gf has a free trial account and wants to keep playing, but i cant find the download link for the steam free trial anywhere.
is it still suspended?

obsidian patio
#

Check the sidebar of the store page for the game

prisma fulcrum
#

ill check

obsidian patio
#

Though I think the trial is still suspended for any newcomers, and I don’t think Steam players can’t use the download in the pins

prisma fulcrum
#

she's not a newcomer. she really cant just download it?
i dont see the demo button

#

wasnt there some roundabout way of triggering steam downloads that doesnt use the store?

solemn jewel
prisma fulcrum
#

trying out quicklauncher

warm snow
#

Pins

prisma fulcrum
#

would the free trial client work if itsa a steam acccount?

steep egret
#

i dont think so

#

you sure she doesn't have the game hidden or something?
usually free games on Steam, get added to your account when you install them for the first time
you have to explicitly delete them from the Steam library and confirm it to delete them from your account

prisma fulcrum
#

she has ff14 in her library, but it doesnt say free trial

#

ill just try it i suppose

steep egret
#

maybe she paid for it at some point

#

if that is the case, she wont be on free trial

prisma fulcrum
#

she definitely did not. she does not own ff14.

steep egret
#

youd have to check her account in mogstation to confirm

#

or just try installing and see if she can login

#

the client doesn't really matter, it should only download the free trial if you login with a free trial account

#

well in terms of what the client is called

#

still has to be steam client

#

the game launcher, determines what to download, after you login

#

Steam only downloads the launcher, nothing else

prisma fulcrum
#

so just using quicklauncher should work fine, right

steep egret
#

i dunno how quicklauncher works with steam

prisma fulcrum
#

"should"

#

theres a "use steam services" option

steep egret
#

🤷‍♂️

#

if she has ff14 in her library, just use that

prisma fulcrum
#

i logged in with her account on my computer, and it started downloading updates.
typically the regular launcher doesnt let me download anything until i log in

#

she has ff14 in her library, but its not registered to her account

#

so we cant use it

#

when we go to login it just asks for a registration code

steep egret
#

as in it asks for a code, or to make an account?

#

pretty sure you can ignore those and click next

prisma fulcrum
#

for a code

steep egret
#

to login with an account

prisma fulcrum
#

im pretty sure there was no next button

#

lol she doesnt have ff14, its shared from my library

#

figures

steep egret
#

lol, ok yeah scrap that idea

#

youll just have to try quick launcher, and hope it works

#

not sure it was designed to install the game on steam for you thou

prisma fulcrum
#

i think it will, since it uses steam services and let her log in.
we'll find out

#

worst comes to worst i just blow the 20 bucks and upgrade her account

split dust
#

Im trying to learn eruption from Ifrit(the dungeon one), but im soloing it, i can still learn the spell while using Unrestricted party?

obsidian patio
#

Yes, but it’s RNG

half hare
#

Yes just doing it unsynced makes it a lower % to get the chances are determined by the stars

obsidian patio
#

Most trial spells feel like 10% learn rate when done unsynced

split dust
#

Okie, asking because i already killed the dude like 10 times, so i was not sure

#

thanks

latent nest
#

was it ever mentioned how long the duration that transfer to OCE would be free for?

obsidian patio
#

Until the worlds are no longer classified as new

#

World status typically changes with patch updates, and the next expected one is 6.1 in March/April

latent nest
#

and how long would that take

#

oh i see

#

thanks alot!

dapper oyster
#

does rested exp has cap? any way to check it?

leaden ginkgo
#

if you tranfer servers does your retainer lvl reset

prisma dragon
#

Any idea when lvl 90 EX trial will come out?

green grail
#

6.1

heavy wadi
#

6.1

prisma dragon
#

Ah thank you

jade quartz
#

There are already two out. Next is 6.1

green grail
#

probably average level of all other members? but not sure

narrow jay
#

afaik it's weighted to roughly the average of your squadron levels, minus one or two

#

I mean, might as well use four, even if you don't want to keep more than three, just for the meantime stat bonuses assisting completion.

Hmm, i realized that i think i made an alt in Balmung on the time it was under preferred status and maybe that's why i'm not getting the 15 days. That alt never reached level 30 and i never got anything for it though, could that be it?

slate trail
#

do i need to level all DoH class to 90 to pentameld?

#

or is one enough?

modest igloo

i can cook really hard to penta my gear

slate trail

dossent matter which one as long as it's DoH right?

#

ohh

#

okk

#

crafting gear dosent matter when overmelding right?

modest igloo

nice, tyty

wet herald
#

does anyone know - when worlds are congested and you cant make new characters, is that based on the current level of activity or is it a general population thing? i wanna make a character on another world but its congested :c

leaden ginkgo

oh hey guys, i have a question, how long does SE grants the 15 day game time to the account? i have the 1m gil already but game time is not yet added to my account. ive heard somebody say that u can get like after changing areas or something, but still haven't received it yet
thanks!

heavy wadi
#

It's locked indefinitely.

#

Usually they change from congested on the next major patch, which would be march/april/may

wet herald

Any idea when 6.1 releases and how much gil I should save to have a chance at a house?

obtuse mantle
#

Does anyone know if I buy a steam copy and use my windows copy login it would work?

heavy wadi
neat drift
#

How much gil should I have by then though? Like 10mil? 100mil?

solemn jewel
#

Depends what plot you want

modest igloo
solemn jewel
#

Smallest is 3 mil

modest igloo
#

i have 20 mil saved so i can go for the medium with less players in the lotto

neat drift
#

Ah, I'm far away from that, but good to know
Thx lads

solemn jewel
#

Do u own the game on windows?

obtuse mantle
#

@solemn jewel No sorry I mean the non steam copy the one u buy off their own store

hot eagle
#

steam launcher/copy needs a steam account

solemn jewel
#

You cannot buy a steam copy if u already own the game on square and vice versa

obtuse mantle
#

ohk cool just wondering

tidal yarrow
#

when is the new ultimate release date?

modest igloo
#

maaaaaybe may

tidal yarrow
#

whaat

#

so late?

#

why do some people worry so much about not being able to get bis if ult is in 3 monthsbcaConfusedRoll

green grail
#

2 weeks after 6.1

#

6.11

heavy wadi
ashen adder
#

whats the bot command to calculate gcd based on sks?

tidal yarrow
#

depends on the way you see it

#

last ultimate released 3 decades ago

#

but yes compared to savage tier it's not gonna be late

regal pawn
#

No, it was definitely 2-ish years ago

tidal yarrow

Hey, any new squenix members here? I made an account, and it seems like the server messed up the data entry or something. It says I joined 8 hours from now, and on first login, my username was changed to a huge string of numbers.

lucid abyss
#

Yo do you have to take your soul crystal off when you drink fantasia? Cause I did last night (haven't messed about in character creation yet) and I almost started running around as level 90 gladiator 😂

lucid abyss
#

Ty!

sweet pasture
#

Is there somehow any data (including non-conclusive data) showing the percentage of players that pug high-end content versus those in a static?

heavy wadi
#

Nope

#

That's not something that could be accurately tracked... at all

leaden ginkgo
#

Are healer/ caster potencies calculated the same?

green grail
#

no

#

you can't really compare them between jobs

#

maybe you kinda can for healers but even across dps jobs they can vary due to different traits and buffs

wooden vapor
#

roulette rewards are based on the time you finish the roulette, not start right? so I can start MSQ roulette for instance now and I'll get rewards since they reset in 10 min?

warped nest
#

Yes

shut panther
#

so I started playing BLM again for the first time since EW, and just unlocked HF2

#

according to my math it's higher DPS than flare if you can't make flare instant

#

is this right?

#

or am I missing something

#

(also if it is, I HATE IT)

Hello

#

Is my rotation on dragoon lvl 40 correct

#

I do the 3 skills to get power surge, then i use the lvl 40 skill thats aoe/jump if available

If not, i use the combo to use Full Thrust

more or less

dry bobcat

Okay thanks

#

Any tips apart from that vid

#

Anything i should change

modest igloo
#

life surge is always used on full thrust

#

lvl 50 skill has a positional so get ready to start learning those

dry bobcat
dry bobcat

then ye the vid does it all pretty much

dry bobcat

Okay thanks man

DRG starts getting somewhat complex at like 60 with the long gcd combo

#

any job uses skill speed materia?

faint flare
#

Yes

covert parcel
#

any examples? 0.0

open coral
#

Almost every dps job has a tier level of SkS that they require

faint flare
#

Tanks except war, Samurai

covert parcel
#

gotcha!

proper junco
#

might be worth to ask here but

mellow pike
#

for daily roullete, if it says reward collected, does that mean I'm done? Or should i be doing them once a day?

open coral
proper junco
#

i use to have a full screen option that says "3840x 2160" but now i don't see them anymore, anyone know what case might that be?

steep egret
mellow pike
#

does it reset on a daily time or 24hrs after you have done it once?

faint flare
#

!daily

zinc orbitBOT
#
Tick, Tock, Kupo!
Time Until Daily Reset:

**<t:1643382000:F>

22 hours, 42 minutes, 44 seconds**

arctic knot
#

Starting out my botanist. Cant find any maple sap. None of the lvl 5 trees in Treespeak have it.

faint flare
#

At reset

open coral
#

It resets at server reset time.

steep egret
#

daily reset is the same for ALL servers

mellow pike
#

oh! ok makes sense I logged on this morning so it was before the reset

arctic knot
#

Also the ingame help prompt suggests that Triangulate node positions should show up on the minimal but they don’t.

#

Does it only work on the default round minimal and not the square one you see by pressing M?

#

Minimal = minimap

boreal storm
#

M isn’t the mini map

#

It’s the map

arctic knot
#

Yeah I know. So nodes won’t show up there?

steep egret
#

they only appear on the minimap

arctic knot
#

Sigh. K

sleek needle
#

You only see nodes on the minimap

steep egret
#

also, make sure you are in the right location

#

just zoom the minimap out as far as it goes

arctic knot
#

As for the trees. I’ve spent almost an hour hitting both lvl 5/10 trees in the low level area in treespeak but none have ever shown sap

steep egret
#

check the gathering log to find where the resource can be found, click the location for it to show you where it is

boreal storm
#

The gathering log does show where they’d be if you click the item

steep egret
#

1 hour, means ur probably in the wrong place

unborn sphinx
#

hey guys, quick question, how likely is it to be able to do Delubrum Reginae (Savage) currently and how many people likely required? would like the Cerberus mount.

faint flare
#

You still need discord groups

steep egret
#

find it in the gathering log, click it, then click the location on the right, it will highlight the map area you need to go

faint flare
#

Lowest amount done was like 24 with specific set ups

arctic knot
#

Not directly outside the gate 🤔

boreal storm
#

Yeah don’t trust that

open coral
#

The label isn't the entire area.

#

It's a small part of the area.

steep egret
#

thats why you click it to show the zone

#

👍

arctic knot
#

Yeah didn’t know the log has that functionality. Thanks!

steep egret
#

also, some zones are way off the actual label

#

in some areas

boreal storm
#

Yeah some zones are huge

#

So you’re gonna need that

steep egret
#

or they refer to labels for smaller areas in a larger zone, finding them can be annoying if ur doing it manually

arctic knot
#

Ended up just buying them from the vendor in same map as botany guild. Lul

steep egret
#

haha

#

you'll only be able to buy stuff for the start of crafters/gatheres

arctic knot
#

Yeah. I’ve run both carpentry and fishing up to 20+

steep egret
#

eventually you'll not be able to find items you need at venfors

open coral
#

I honestly just go by the zone popups as guidance. I find the place where "Treespeak" pops up, then wander around within the area until a different zone name pops up.

arctic knot
#

Welp. Time to turn my minimap back on and pump it up to 200%

mellow pike
#

So I just started playing this week and one of things i'm most excited about is the good story I keep hearing about. Right now it seems kinda slow. Does it pick up later?

open coral
#

It does, yes.

#

A lot of the story at the beginning and through parts of ARR are about reconstructing the world lore, introducing characters, and so forth.

mellow pike
#

oh good because if this was it, I'm a little underwhelmed lol

remote lintel
#

ofc ARR isnt it

open coral
#

What level MSQ are you at?

robust crow
#

that's like watching the first 5 minutes of lord of the rings and saying "wow this series sucks"

mellow pike
#

msq 19

open coral
#

Oh yeah, you're really at the beginning.

mellow pike
#

i mean its not terrible, just not anything to write home about yet

remote lintel
#

yeah youve played for like 10 minutes

#

just wait my dude

robust crow
#

yea well LotR wasn't anything to write home about in the first 5 minutes either

open coral
#

You're at the part in the game where in any JRPG you're running around as some random villager who has just gotten The Call to Adventure.

remote lintel
#

the game is like 200 hours long at this point

mellow pike
#

I mean, i know i'm kinda slow but i've put over 15hrs in so far

sleek needle
#

Wasn't 200h before EW? So like 250h

robust crow
#

how are you 15 hours in and only at MSQ 19

open coral
#

Yeah, it's definitely closer to 250-300 hours at this point.

remote lintel
#

side content probably

robust crow
#

that's before you even get your mount

mellow pike
#

sure its still very early on but 15 hours in most rpg games isn't nothing

sleek needle
#

Eh that's fair, there's no mounts yet at that point

#

It's very slow at the start

open coral

Most RPGs aren't nearly 300 hours long either.

MSQ 19 is reachable within like 3 hours

yeah, i'm not the best gamer to begin with and i've been having fun exploring lol

robust crow

what side content have you been doing lol

sleek needle
robust crow
#

not that exploring is a bad thing, but if you aren't enjoying it then don't do it now

mellow pike
#

i wanted to get glams asap since i like that kind of stuff

open coral
#

Exploring is fine too. The game encourages you to play more or less how you want. But the MSQ is required to get elsewhere.

remote lintel
#

just know that the story is hundreds of hours long so what youve played is only a drop in an ocean

robust crow
#

having a mount, and especially having flying makes exploring way easier

and opening up some waypoints

i did spend maybe an hour in gold saucer

If you've been out to the Waking Sands, you can unlock the glamour and dye systems already.

So what you're saying is... you've gotten sidetracked and haven't actually played 15 hours XD

What astra said. The quests to unlock glams are found in the town containing waking sands

it's a slow burn so just take your time

faint geyser

acutally game tells me 19 hrs so i figure at least half of that is msq?

open coral

Probably not even.

faint geyser
#

So don’t fret about crafting excellent gear ASAP

mellow pike
#

yeah i haven't touched crafting yet

open coral
#

Maybe a quarter of that time is MSQ pre-20 at maximum.

faint geyser
#

Fair, that was my mistake

mellow pike
#

i guess my first few hours were very very slow because i haven't really every played a tab target mmo ever and so it took me while to get used to the controls and just navigating the world and all the menues

#

doesn't play like any other FF game i've played before (obsiously) lol

Yeah, sometimes it can take a minute to get used to the controls in a new game.

Mounts FAQ

When can I get my first mount?
The quest that allows you to use mounts, bluequest''My Little Chocobo'', is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest msq''The Company You Keep''. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose, and you'll need to buy a Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 required Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes immediately after ''The Company You Keep''.

Are there any differences between mounts?
Some mounts allow multiple people (2/4/8) to ride at once, with all mounts having the same movement speed. A partial exception to this rule is the SDS Fenrir, a mount from the Mog Station. The SDS Fenrir acts as if you have the first mount speed boost obtained from completing specific quests in the story, making it a bit faster than other mounts, but only until completing the relevant story quests for that zone.

Can I make my mount faster?
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.

open coral
#

And at that point, the plot will also start to pick up a little more.

robust crow
#

read the first paragraph

#

so you don't waste time trying to get the seals naturally

#

too many new players fall into that trap

mellow pike
open coral
#

The chocobo mount you get from your grand company also plays the classic chocobo music while you're riding it.

mellow pike
#

does it matter which grand company i choose?

open coral
#

Nope

#

It's entirely cosmetic.

faint geyser
#

I… don’t like the Chocobo music

robust crow
#

no but kan-e-senna is hot so pick adders

open coral
#

Pick the one you like.

open coral
faint geyser
#

Right

#

Though I have other mounts so isn’t a big deal

robust crow
#

it's a pretty good recommendation to everyone to turn off mount music

open coral
#

I mean, sometimes you just want to ride around listening to boss music.

faint geyser
#

So what exactly is the returner’s bonus?

robust crow
#

i'd rather listen to the fantastic zone BGM

open coral
#

But personally I'm a fan of the zone music, so I keep mount music turned off.

remote lintel
#

lets returning players get into the novice network

open coral
#

Yeah, returner's bonus is... pretty underwhelming.

boreal storm
#

So there’s no point to it

faint geyser
#

Ah. Don’t think I need that too terribly. After all I can ask questions here.

open coral
#

Basically it gives returning players a semi-novice status. I think you get the xp bonus when queued with a mentor as well.

#

Not really worth it imo

mellow pike
#

another noob question. How do you all use all the skills on the hotbar. I can use numbers for the ones on the first hotbar but what about the others? I've just been clicking on them and I feel like there is a more efficient way. The numpad on my keyboard doesn't seem to work for this...

open coral
#

You can assign them to different keybinds.

remote lintel
#

mkb players usually bind 1234, qert, f, zxcv with ctrl and shift modifiers

leaden ginkgo
#

I used the keypad too. Assigned the + sign to change the hotbar

queen fern
leaden ginkgo
#

Also, I have a question regarding apartments.
We can have bathtub, sinks, towel hangers and bathroom tiles in furnishing, but not toilets?

mellow pike
#

ok so no one uses the default keybinds

leaden ginkgo
#

No one

mellow pike
#

oh good to know. I just thought i was dumb and couldn't figure out the default layout that everyone uses lol

queen fern
#

I use default keybinds aside from movement

open coral
#

Yeah, no, default keybinds are almost universally difficult to use.

remote lintel
#

or just play on controller bigbrain

Glamour FAQ

'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'

Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'

Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.

2 stacks umbral ice gives 0.8x dmg multiplier for b2, 2 stacks astral fire gives 1.6x dmg multiplier for f2. thats with aspect mastery II at lv 20. I assume the perk pushes f2 ahead

narrow jay
faint flare
#

Ice reduce fires damage

#

Not ice

narrow jay
#

Correct.

#

And that's more because fire increases fire damage, and when you lose AF you lose that damage boost as well.

regal pawn
#

Is the damage loss from using f2 to switch that bad that it offsets any gain from using it with the 1.4x?

#

It shouldn't be, afaik, isn't it only like a 10 pot loss with 1 umbral ice?

narrow jay
#

It's more that, with only AF1, Fire 2 is such a massive MP drain that you get more worth out of Blizz 2.

But also I feel like I should point out that this is not only a very low-level situation and not really worth optimising, but it only exists for about two levels so ultimately does not matter whatsoever.

regal pawn
#

Yeah, it just feels weird

pseudo veldt

The difference between only B2 and using some F2 probably doesn't matter a whole lot in Sastasha

pseudo veldt
#

Oh right, that syncs to 19

regal pawn
#

it's only like 15%, tho yeah
low level so whatever
b2 is easier to spam as well

narrow jay
#

You'll get to 20 in such short order that you'll immediately forget it was ever a thing

#

and then Tam-Tara is so meh that your tank will probably kill the mobs from AoE anyway, so just walk behind him and toss out blizzards and be glad that it's no longer centered on you

#

which was the dumbest idea

#

and I'm glad EW changed it

celest quartz
#

alrighty then xD

open coral

It just exists in your game code like a key.

I've done the phys and healer ones

is there a way to find groups doing extreme trails? cause it takes eons to get a group

so whats this door for in the limsa inn

Lala door?

I have a question about the endwalker raids. Do you need to have a raid party already made or can you go in with random people

faint flare
#

Normal mode is always duty finderable

oak lily
#

you'd be hard-pressed to find a random savage queue

faint flare
#

Only extremes and up content use party finder

tight spoke
#

you can do savage in duty finder but I suggest finding a static

#

unless you find a good PF group, savage can be boring as fuck in PF

So I’ve been trying to get the outfoxed fate. I’ve done the other two needed but it still doesn’t appear

#

stupid question inc but did i leave the PvP duty too early? everyone was "gg-ing" in chat and the scoreboard popped up, then i just left (had to confirm to abandon duty)

#

reason im asking is cuz i got 100k exp which is quite shitty

#

also i dont see the "rewards claimed" tag on the duty

fresh lodge
#

If you quit, you wouldn't have gotten any xp at all

leaden granite
#

huh ok

#

how is that good exp then?! heard many times that pvp duties are very good exp

regal pawn
#

Check the chat tabs for any messages about XP

fresh lodge
#

The Frontline roulette is good xp

twilit arch
#

frontlines roulette itself is good exp, if you're queueing specifically for frontline how much exp you get is based on win/loss

#

so if your team came in last the exp isn't that great

pure copper
#

wait is dex literally just for NIN?

twilit arch
#

no

regal pawn
#

phys ranged

twilit arch
#

physical ranged as well

remote lintel
#

dex is for nin and ranged phys

regal pawn

hmm we won though

oak lily
#

Str is specifically for everything but Rogue/Nin and Healer

regal pawn
#

and caster

oak lily
#

according to the tooltips

regal pawn
#

and phys ranged

remote lintel
#

strength is for melee dps and tanks

#

besides nin

regal pawn
#

Casters use int
healers use mind
phys range + ninja use dex
tanks + melee use str

fresh lodge
#

It looks like you did just frontlines on its own, not the roulette

remote lintel
#

did you queue for FRONTLINE or frontline ROULETTE?

regal pawn
#

did you queue for this

#

or for this

zinc bramble
#

Above the poetics

leaden granite

queue for the top one

#

How come in classes its not giving me a rouge option?

#

I wanna be a ninja eventually :[

pure copper
#

u gotta be 10 or something

fervent abyss
#

Oh gotcha

faint flare
#

You need to get to lv10 first

#

You can't start as it

#

And do the class quests ofc to allow swapping jobs

fervent abyss
#

Since you can switch, what does your starting class determine? Nothing?

remote lintel
#

pick a class that starts in limsa and get to lvl 10

#

your starting city

faint flare
#

What city you start

fervent abyss
#

Gotcha

#

Thanks guys!

Is it safe to just discard all old relic weapons (particularly Anima and Resistance) and still have access to the replica ones in case I want them for glam in the future?

Hello, I am a bit unfamiliar with the monetization model this game does and I quite fairly don't understand it. If you pay the subscription do you get all the content or do you need to buy the complete edition and pay subscription or am I completely wrong on both guesses?

Buy the game then sub

Sub lets you actually play the game after buying

Role Quests FAQ

What are Role Quests?

Role Quests serve as a replacement for Job-specific quests for Shadowbringers and are split into four categories (Tank, Healer, Physical DPS, and Magical DPS). These are unlocked with the quest 'Warrior of Darkness' at 71 and all start in the Crystarium around x10-11, y15-16.

At least one of these Role Quest series must be entirely completed in order to complete the Shadowbringers story. Completion of these quests, along with having the appropriate Job at 80, is also required to claim job-specific level 80 i430 gear from Grenoldt in The Tempest.

I can't find where I left off!

No need to worry! Here are links that lead to each of the Role Quest series.
Tank Role Quests
Healer Role Quests
Physical DPS Role Quests
Magical DPS Role Quests

#

Am I the only one? or does monk just feel bad... to play in EW? like genuine question yes it does nice dmg but it just feels bad...

faint flare
#

I've liked it significantly more than other iterations....just need to learn PB windows and timings

inland quarry
#

don't get me wrong monk was never "fun" to play unless you practive in masochism but this just feels like garbage

faint flare
#

It's just another gcd heavy job like reaper

inland quarry
#

it rn boils down to at least lvl 80, 1-2-3 combo to get your 2 buffs and dot up, then do 1-2-3 until you need to reaply the prior and repeat

pure copper
#

i think a few people really like the new monk, so it might be a YMMV thing

inland quarry
half hare
#

i dont enjoy it as much i think for me its the uptime on twin fangs should be 20 secs but lvled it to 90 an now its benched

faint flare
#

Both of them are gcd heavy jobs where if you mess up 1 gcd your parse is down 20%

pure copper
#

o.O

faint flare
#

Exaggerated but point stands

inland quarry
faint flare
#

It's just a rhythm you eventually get into when it comes to gcd based jobs

because, like, it's fine not liking it

inland quarry

yeah that's a fair perspective but i'm not sure how it would feel bad or significantly different from old monk gcd timeline

inland quarry
#

but IDK it might not even be a monk thing, I used to main dragoon, it's at 80 rn have not touched it since shb, melee dps are just eh... for me can't explain

least your not locked in to just one job

MNK’s new thing is using Perfect Balance as if they were SAM stickers or NIN mudras. It takes some getting used to but all of their damage now comes from using Perfect Balance and the new Blitz mechanic.

check to make sure your settings aren't weird

scholar and summoner levels are tied correct?

jovial quarry

Correct

inland quarry

hypothetically if I boost scholar, do I get a summoner boost for free?

Technically

#

You'll still need to do the job quests and everything for summoner

And gear it

You’ll have to unlock it still, if you haven’t already, and you’ll need to get gear but yes you sort of do

Grand Company FAQ

Which Grand Company should I choose?

The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you choose beside the quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'. Here is a link leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies:

Grand Company Gear (click the JP flag at the top right to change to english)

How do I get Grand Company Seals?

You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. You can use these seals to promote yourself to higher ranks from the Personnel Officer. Promotions also require completion of your Grand Company Hunting Log and completing specific quests found at your Grand Company base.

Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in exchange for more seals.

The only difference is their gear look

#

They're functionally identical
