Have you redeemed endwalker?
Cause if you got a 🚫 next to the level, then you haven't
Oh you probably had Early Access but didn’t put the real code in later
for some reason EA and the actual game have separate codes
Anyone here got a P4S Act 3 toolbox for me?
You stop getting levels around 40-50 below you
And anything past 40 above you hits max yield
Just make sure to eat Bacon Broth and Tinker’s Calm for max points
Is there an option to keep weapons glowing while sheathed?
things like this usually out of stock like hours/minutes after it's available 👀
If you buy it from the SE store, yes. There is a reprint coming in April I believe?
not all weapons glow while sheated
yes but you have to use a custom macro to do it
I'll link it, sec
Why SE won’t make an option for it? XD
Maybe Because it’d kinda make things harder to see
/bm
/sit
And I can imagine for cutscenes it would be kinda immersive breaking
put these two lines into a macro
tap the macro
and your weapon glows while sheathed
Thanks!
only people who are in the same map as you by the time you executed the macro can see it
so people who just tele'd in won't be able to see it
They can turn it off on cutscenes tho
This is what it was thank you

why is there literally not a single bought land at the Empyrion!?
It's open as a display until 6.1 when sales actually begin.
No all other housing districts remain as they are. Empyreum is new however.
Ppl would be pissed if it was a hard reset
OH!
just isn't available to be purchased in yet
that's a 6.0 thing!?
yes
Patch notes...you should read em
but I pay no mind because I'm still in post heavensward patches!
Then don’t worry about it
well, this is a bit of a paradigm shift
ive discorved the gold saucer and im interested in playing the air force game again but i cant find it anymore where do i go to find it or is there an easier way to grind mgp?
It’s random every 20 mins
the air force spawns in every 20 min? unsure if you were refering to mee
Yes
gotcha
Airforce one belongs to a category of games called GATEs
is there an easier way to grind mgp?
They appear every 20mins and is random which one appears
Events are every 20 mins slice , leap of fate , Air Force etc
!faq gates
icic ty
Oo
Yet it always like it’s only leap of fate when I’m there
It’s not about difficulty just varity
Hi, does anyone know what DRG weapon this is? i am having a hard time trying to find it. doesn't seem to be any relic stage also
That's Longinus Zeta, no?
but the colour don't match
Zeta can be dyed
OHH i see. ok thanks!!
I'm am new players can't your help me lvl up story quest
Look at the top right corner, do everything you see in that ui
Query! Can I toss past crafting/gather relics and get them back later? Currently, they're sitting in my armory collecting dust lol
I use them to apply a glam but that's it
You lose whatever progress you had when you discard them
If they’re fully complete relics, then you can buy the replicas at the MCH guild
Ah rad! Yeah they're complete. Thank yU! 🙂
I don't know story quest can't your help me appreciated
-
Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.
-
An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.
By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.
Follow this
I don't know what to do I'm already lvl 3
Read
Will RPR and SGE get TEA weapons?
Probably never
Follow the Msq tracker
i never noticed, did gnb and dnc get uwu and ucob weapons?
No
I wonder what model the Dragon War weapons will be based on
Thordan style. The scythe and one other weapon has been data mined
Thordan maybe?
Nice
can you set up a macro for living dead that makes a sound when the individual is actually in the walking dead state, or no
Not
any link or pics of the datamine?
I only have the scythe on hand
im unsure where to continue from the story

Thanks your very much help me appreciated 🙏
tytytyy
my continuation is somewhere ive never been before how do i get there airship or walking?
at call of the sea atm
Airship
Once you get there you'll be able to attune to the aetheryte and tp directly on future visits
understood ty 
But for that first trip you should take the airship from your starting city
when someone says crafting, do they mean all of the DoH jobs? or is there one called crafting that I havent unlocked lol
They're taking about DoH
does buying from a mannequin make you pay sales tax
is there a contacts (recently played with) list except with alliances?
Contacts List works only for people who you've been in a party with iirc. I don't think it works for alliances last I checked?
Your party in the alliance maybe, but not the other 16
If I leave an FC without clearing out my personal room, what happens to the items in it?
You can't leave without removing the room
you can't, you have to vacate the room first
Sorry sorry, when I click vacate room what happens to the items?
the items would be sent to the resident caretaker
Oh perfect, thank you
I bought FFXIV starter edition on playstation, if I buy the endwalker expansion on the PlayStation store do I get the other previous expansions aswell?.
yes
K thanks
So im currently lvl 80 astrologian and i just finished shadowbringers, and is it bad i still have no clue how to play astrologian i kinda just spam card put it on dps then spam the aoe heal and then manually heal tanks
where do i find hunt linkshells?
if you're PF leader and someone whispers you, how do you reply back?
/r Reply
Can you only get an anima relic for one job?
or right click their name -> send tell
No, but you can only have a stage active for one class at the time. F.e one Soul Without Life at a time. If you want to get started on a different relic, either abandon or complete the quest.
Note that this is per quest
Yeah, just hand in or abandon the quest for the current class. If you hand in, your progress will be saved.
You can have every relic in the game if you’re nuts enough
where can I buy DOH gear at limsa lominsa?
From Iron Thunder and Syneyhil in the limsa market area west of the big aetheryte

Outside of BiS, your meld priority should be piety to comfort (if needed) > sps if you want to hit a certain GCD tier > crit > det/dh > sps. That said, the difference between meld setups is so small overall that you could opt for det over crit, or take more spell speed than usual if that's what you're more comfortable with during prog. The raw effect of the stats is quite insignificant as long as you're melding something that you're going to make use of.
tl;dr
iLVL/Mind > follow bis
or
GCD to tier > crit > det/dh > sps
I bought a new computer and was trying to sign in to my account when I try to sign in it asks for a registration code
Im not F2P and my sub is active
are you using the right launcher? @solar warren
like if you bought it on steam then you cant use the retail launcher and vice versa
I bought it through the regular store
!faq download
try this launcher
how do i hide other peoples' debuffs except the raid wide ones?
you probably don’t want to hide other people’s debuffs anyways it’s important info
So I just finished the books for the zodiac relic weapons, how far do I have left?
Can anyone explain which is a tank? Is it just gladiator?
about halfway
Gladiator and marauder out of the starting classes
Thanks. I’m like brand new
any job in the tank part of the class sheet
v on keyboard
Coming over from WoW 🥺
!faq newplayertips
C not V
Tank is a role in a party whose job is to soak the damage from the boss, warrior is 1 of the 4. The other being paladin, gunbreaker and dark knight
Yup I know the specs I just didn’t know what classes were tank
Or sage 
specs?
Specialization?
Roles.
Gladiator becomes Paladin. Marauder becomes Warrior. Dark Knight and Gunbreaker do not have a starting class associated with them.
Specs like dps, healz and tank ._.
We say roles
never heard of specs before. the more you know
Specs will confuse people
I’m coming in from WoW xD
There’s no builds in this game
Wow only says specs because it’s specs branching off one class
Wait how do you get dark night?
But XIV isn’t like that

need to do msq
You can simply unlock it upon reaching the hub city in Heavensward. Requires story progression.
You have to unlock it
nope, still gotta do msq
Everything depends on story progression
They all are
All jobs start super basic
^^
And slow
The only difference is whether you like how it plays or not
Okay I’m super nervous haha
as everything is viable to play
why? your a new player, you're prolly not gonna know much
Which unfortunately is kinda hard to judge before unlocking a fuller kit at like 60 or 70
But you can play all jobs on one char so your starter choice isn’t something to sweat over
Because I’m worried about the toxicity of being a new player ;-; but so far I haven’t experienced it
the different jobs will level separately
if you do see toxicity it won't be common
New players are welcomed and even coddled here
is that common in wow? sounds like a pretty bad game to me
it is
There’s no||(t much)|| toxicity here to new people
new players all have icons to denote them
wipes in dungeons over in WoW usually result in swearing about who didn't pull their weight and then a disband to find another party /s
(or maybe not /s, I didn't play much)
people are perfectly chill with new players
yup
We get that people are new, don’t know how some stuff works etc
but ofc there are gonna be bad eggs in every community
The last guild I was in with WOW completely ruined the game for me.
That’s why I came over here ;-;
if I had to give one bit of advice to someone who is new: read everything. It will help you figure out exactly what your actions do, exactly where to go, exactly what's going on in the story, etc.
runner-up would be focus on MSQ, avoid doing the truly generic side quests unless you really want to be a completionist
Also there is no rush to do anything. Take your time and enjoy the scenery.
^^^
yeh, everything is locked behind MSQ (Main Scenario Quest)
job level doesn't really mean much, so just like take it slow and enjoy the story
there is no reason to not use abandon duty after finishing a dg/raid? right?
its fine yeah
yeh, you can do that, but you might miss the loot if you develop the habit of it
cause the chest is close to the exit
what's proper etiquette for doggo farming party?
stay for one more drop after youg et?
just don't loot and scoot
it's ideal if you stay until everyone present gets it
because then you don't keep losing and re-adding people and making people wait even longer
true
depends on how long each clear usually takes, but yeah that's fair
they should lock the distribution of the loot
till party disbands
-_-;;;
like you roll, and you win, it goes into a pool
No that would suck
Very much so
lootmaster parties are generally disliked
especially since it's not uncommon that the owner will just loot and scoot after it drops
lol
but doesn't lootmaster gives the party leader the asignment?
yes that's precisely the problem
You can’t even get multiple of a dog, so like
Your proposal means your party/leader can hold you hostage
i am talking about like, you still roll, and it just sits there. it's yours
you just odn't get it
until party disbands
Yeah that sucks
Gross
yeah that's how you hold a party hostage
Imagine losing your dog because you can’t stay for one more run and everyone else can
“sorry guys, gotta go do life things. Oh my mount disappeared...”
is it worth getting lvl 1 gear for my retainers? which classes should I choose for my retainers?
is there a good retainer guide?
Give them actual gear, so they can do ventures
yeah but like, most of them are level 1
To start off with all you need is a tool/weapon. After they get a few levels though you're going to need to get them proper gear to meet requirements.
ok, thanks

For gatherers you can skip a number of pieces though. Hats early on for example only have perception stats so they're useless on a retainer. Accessories for the most part are in the same boat as they mostly have just +GP on them.
ah ok, thanks!
perception is no longer useless for gathering retainers
The bonus to items received for gatherer delivery missions will now be affected by a retainer's perception rating rather than gathering rating.
Huh, I stand corrected.
that said, even accessories aren't necessarily useless (though at lower levels i do agree with you on that)
as you can throw melds on them to help hit breakpoints
true
well I've got all non food related crafters 70+ so it shouldn't be any trouble lol
food/gathering classes I mean too lol
i'm saying I can craft gear for them.
is there a way to practice rotations and such without having to wait for long cooldowns to come up
like a training mode or smth
do cosmetic items ever go on sale? How about digital collectors edition upgrades?
Because poetic gear is from specific vendors
Yes and yes
You can reset cool downs by Entering and exiting an unsynced dungeon
are the sales random or usually at set times like holidays or anniversaries?
A bit of both, seeing how stuff can be added to the cash shop whenever the devs feel like
do i need 90 on a disciple of the hand for melding
or is there another way i can do it
To advance meld
whats the difference between meld and advanced meld
isnt there some gear that cant be advance melded
Yep, but not crafted gear. Which is what people pentameld
Is the last chocobo companion heal skill worth getting? Was reading they spam the aoe heal too much.
You get enough points for all the skills at rank 20, also I’m pretty sure that got fixed
Old info is usually irrelevant
you can probably start branching out when you get to r7-8 healer on choco tbh
tomestone gear vendors are in eulmore, not crystarium
It’s both, if they beat ShB
Should I go for dps skills next after I max healer?
How do I have my party list display the entire name but outside of that its initials?
Nvm figured it out
does it matter whats stats I upgrade for my anima weapon
and is there a place to find the right stats
nope
just throw crit and det into it
Is there a Dark Knight barding for the chocobo?
is Meditate at all worth it on SAM? it feels... very meh
it's used during downtime
Yep
i dont think so
When boss untargetable
bardings are kinda random when they drop and from what content they drop

and the sam barding is from like eureka lol
i think theres a few vids on youtube with a full list
Assuming there's no way to get an Obsidian Carbuncle glamour huh?
Machinist
..gun
ain't it just some saw blades though
he doesn't pull out a wholeass chainsaw and start going to town with it
iirc
yes
side note: does not actually shoot bullets
Just letting you know, you can't play MCH until you beat all of A Realm Reborn
I personally enjoyed SAM, DRK, and NIN. Only jobs I'll ever play.
it would be helpful if you describe what kind of class you find fun
machinist is an extremely bursty several button spamming class
you just need 50
only about 40 hours for 50
MCH has very high APM, 2nd highest in the game
My buddy is 47 and he started like 2 or 3 days ago lol
yes
Yes
if you want highest damage, then it's either samurai, monk, reaper, or black mage
you can have 1 or the other
gunbreaker is a tank that feels like a dps rotation tho
machinist doesn't have as many buttons as the other classes but they spam a few buttons a lot
I recommend you watch this video to get an idea of what all the classes look like
If this vid helped you pick a job lemme know, I wanna judge you on your choice :)

you get gear from the story and you can buy them with special currency every time you beat the base game/an expac
there's also this but it doesn't have any commentary
literally just follow the story
no
it's just a class showcase
you would buy lvl 60 poetics gear and continue the story
gear is handed to you at all steps of the story
you don't have to worry about gear until max level
and end of story
theres no random gear loot here if thats what you were thinking
the poetics system basically gives old high end armour
gear is dropped from content and picked from loot pools
once you get to cap then its a different process
now THESE are the real grindy gears
You get a guaranteed one piece for your class that you don’t already have, every time you clear a dungeon
Plus whatever randomly drops
!iglam elemental armor of fending +1
its unisex
same appearance for both genders
most gear looks the same regardless of gender
some gear varies
!aglam male Hyur elemental armor of fending +1
Hi all, I just got back into FFXIV after four years lol and I’m trying to transfer my main character’s home world from Moogle in the European data center to one in the Oceanian one, but for some reason that one character won’t show up as eligible to transfer? I’m not in a free company and I’ve collected my mail, is there something else that could be stopping it ??
I miss Teledji, missed opportunity on that place to show up
the ginko/kinko fate series
the 3rd fate, if you do it, it won't be able to spwan for 2 hours right?
Does anyone know how to stop my keyboard from ignoring the first letter i put in?
I have my settings set to "enable direct chat" but recently, anytime i type anything, the game basically ignores the first letter i input
So if i dont press it twice, it leaves out the letter entirely
So how does getting someone to craft gear for me work?
you give them mats
they give you the gear
give them a tip if you want
and be on your merry way
What mats exactly do I give
the ones needed to craft the gear
Like aphroism or both?
Rip I don't gather
Then go to the market board
Ok
Does Delubrum Reginae appear in the alliance raid roulette?
no
It's a special bozja instance
Does Radiant Twine drop from P3S or P2S?
So.... is it even possible to get a whole raid? even getting that many people in Bozja seems to be an issue these days
wait how do u get these
there's discords fo that
where do I find these discords?
p3s
Technically yes, actually we'll maybe today
when it came out it was hard to get in it lol
but yeah theres CAFE for crystal
#resources might have some for your DC
lvl 40 MSQ ||so who was guillaime at the end? he was the imposter but what did he want revenge for?||
||He was with the Dravanian heretics. Those who have left the Ishgardian church and have sided with the dragons in their thousand year long war. He managed to impersonate a church official and use the position to turn everyone against House Haillenarte. Ishgardian faith is such that their people very rarely question the words of church officials. So Guillaime impersonating an inquisitor was huge.||
||Ishgard did some mean things to dragons, you'll find out more later||
oh i see, ||i imagined he must have had some sort of relation to the dravanians, whatever those are (still nore sure if theyre just dragons or what). guess ill find out soon.|| thanks guys
Tbh the answer to basically all MSQ questions (pre max level) is 'keep playing, you'll get more details soon'
||Dravania is a region northwest of Coerthas where a bunch of dragons live. There are a few human sympathizers who work with them however and they're branded as heretics by the people of Ishgard. They're all generally lumped together as Dravanians.||

this coerthas storyline been pretty interesting ngl
is it possible to burst ramuh extreme down and skip phase?
whats the difference between the three grand companies
Functionally, they're identical. The only real difference between them is their cosmetic rewards.
does doing HOH at level 90 give new tomes?
you can, you however need blue mage and you need to drop his hp down to a certain threshold before you can do the final sting combo kat is talking about
blu can't flat out 1 shot ramuh but he can get really close to
same with shiva i believe
anything below ramuh, like titan is fair game for the final sting combo
Nope it can
Shiva is the limit
But ramuh and leviathan are ez oneshots
hmmm i could of sworn i was doing it right, granted im only wearing augmented 400 gear, and not the bis for blu
Unsync, dps mimic, basic instinct, whistle, moon flute, sting
Throw a tingle in there if you're still worried
Rotation for reaper
https://discord.gg/thebalanceffxiv there are 2 openers and the reasoning for them on the balance, check reaper resource channel
does going in before reset (savage) fuck with the chests after the reset if the weekly resets hit when you're inside?
yes.
end it early before reset
hey, what's the best healer class to start with, I started as an Arcanist and wanna change it.
the only one you can start with as a pure healer is conjurer into white mage
arcanist can become scholar, which a very good healer
but arcanist is sort of the weird child amoung the classes and job
i was just told otherwise
im just going on the assumption that everything carries over, maybe thats not the case until you start a fresh instance after reset
maybe it locks in your chest once you enter
so I should wait and become a scholar ?
at about what level can i become one ?
level 30. its up to you. the game itself is alt friendly. you get armory bonus of 100% combat exp for jobs lower then your highest job.
i say arcanist is weird cause its the only class in the game that has 2 jobs associated with it, that being a healer scholar and a dps, summoner
thanks very much
and they level together since they share the same base class
so arcanist is a 2 for 1 deal
ahh , i seee
i started that and not conjurer cause my friend started as tank
and wanted to share 1st location
but heard it can become a healer
What system part makes a sort of beep-boop chime? Just Party Finder refreshing?
finish your class quest, for arcanist and progress the msq till you've reach a quest called "slphy management"
then you can unlock scholar at the arcanist guild
It's happening at random times every once in a while.
I think it mIght be se.10 in this video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPhAS5sTXeY
This is a complete list of the sound effects you can use in /echo, the /party - and the /alliance chat of Final Fantasy XIV - A Realm Reborn.
It's basically the same principle as with the "call" sound effects in FFXI and also works in user macros of course.
These are also the sounds you can set as notification sounds for tells and linkshell mess...
Am I able to get my 89 class gear back if I discard it?
yeah, calamity vendor
Sweet
ah wait
No you get it back from the orignal vendor
Reset is in 14 minutes right?
Aha, all good
yes
Ty
how can I make the clock 12hr time?
yes
just click the letters next to where the time is till it says "LT"
i mean making it from 24hr clock to 12hr clock (am/pm)
bro can someone help with the stupid onetime password
the phrasing your looking for is military time. and im not sure if you can flat out change that
keeps saying invalid id or password but its freakin not ! n idk what to do
i think it will always be presented in military time
If you don't have one, leave the field blank
? ill just research elsewhere, 12hr clock is a widely used term btw lol
Pretty sure that's just in the character config for ui
And it's called 12hr vs 24hr. Not military time
ah, cheers!
then it dont let me log in at all
Then you do have a OTP
one time passwords are like optional verification, if you never signed up for that, then there is no reason to do it
usually people with that option either have the code sent to there phone or have some sort of dongle\
Are there any lvl 80 weapons that glow or have special effects like Byakko’s Enspirited Katana? The ones that can be bought from mb
Just ||Hades||
What is it called? I typed it and it doesn’t show any weapons
the names are greek
It's all Greek to him, evidently
Sorted just made a new email n new account using the client not website 🤦
Wdym?
I'm level 21,last main quest I did was the it must be pirates one. How much longer will it be for me to get cooler gear?

I mean they're literally greek words
for example: Augmented Epikairekakia
You literally only just beat the first dungeon, it'll be a while
you can do the season event
and get the clown outfit
give it about 60 or 70 levels
i like alot of the level 60 gear
Ah I see. Thanks.
@boreal storm is there EW’s ones?
The EXs just came out, of course not
cooler gear, is Very subjective
there are nice dungeon sets in even some level 50 dungeons, or 50 alliance raids, even earlier dungeons have some decent sets
Gotcha
gear becomes, less "shit" around level 30 imo, where you actually start seeing gear that seems to fit your class/job, not whatever hand me downs you randomly get 😄
I'm a bit unsure which worlds have Home World Transfer bonusses such as double exp, is it all of them?? 
Materia worlds, the new ones
Is there anything similar to this I can farm for?
can't you just get that?
Ye but the raid is dead
its free*, provided you get the roll
And don't feel like sitting in que
not when I did it
When did u do it?
like last week
!iglam ivalician oracle's coat
I'll give it a try then trying to make an Eastern mage look
I assume you don't want to spend real money
cuz there's better looking eastern style robes than that
I don't really wanna spend money rn
try asking in #glamour-discussion
Ok
when is it better to reset lego as SMN compared to finish using them?
level 60 SMN now
@covert marlin what do you mean reset lego
Typically you finish whatever legos there are and how ever many charges they give
True, but it's best to get into the habit I guess
I agree 100%
Iirc lvl 60 rota now is also enter DWT first anyways
@covert marlin so your rotation now broadly. Is to enter dreadwyrm trance and finish legos
Until the next DWT
Hello, I just got my 1M gil bonus for being a new player on OCE. I get an email re. my extra days right?
yeh
Pog. Thanks!
okee thank you! what about pre DWT dungeons? do I still finish all my legos before using aethercharge?
@covert marlin yep! That's the general flow. Never changes until 86
Roughly how much of a substat is equal to 1 main stat currently?
In which you get additional skills and the order changes very slightly
Got a friend saying they're tome weapon with 54 more main stat, 7 more crit and dh, and 56 less det, is feeling weaker than their subpar pentamelded crafted weapon
i mean math is probably better evidence than a gut feeling
that's why I'm asking
substats dont scale linear so you can't form conclusive stat weights of 1 str = 123 crit
didn't they use to? at least per expansion?
maybe in the olden days, but since like mid-heavensward all the math people have been on a campaign of "stat weights don't real"
And none of that historical shit matters with the stats squish and reworked damage calculations
And that specifically is why I was asking about current ones
We don't know
there isn't any current ones
It's still too early to know
If you're that fussy go to the balance or somewhere like that
Ah, figured the number crunchers would have gotten that figured out in the first week or two
there's some gear calculation sheets where you can count a theoretical gain from each piece of endgame gear but i'm not sure it exists for every job
This isn't the nitty gritty number crunch spreadsheet channel
No, its a general questions channel for questions about the game. and there is overlap, if you don't have an answer why respond to the question?
It's waaaayyy too complicated for a simple answer
better than getting no response and wondering if people are ignoring you
Like most min max conversations

Has there been any news on a possible Machinist rework? Every time I play MCH I feel like I'm doing little damage compared to any other DPS
No
!faq metameme
There will be job changes in 6.1 right
not sure, haven't heard it yet 🤔
have you checkout xivanalysis to see what you are missing?
what's that
a site where you paste in fflog links to give you a detailed info about what you do wrong and stuff
I know how to play MCH optimally, I'm talking about how the highest optimal rotations compare to other jobs which ultimately has me feeling like I do much less vs other DPS jobs but I see what you mean
All ranged dps are generally weaker than casters and melees due to the free movement
Welcome to physical ranged DPS where your damage is lower because 1. You don't have as much downtime because of telegraphs and on target aoes being cast that you need to avoid. and 2. You're allowed to be mobile so you don't have to worry about cast times.
Did they change how nascent flash activates? played WAR again after some time and i was weirded out how it wasn't popping. I remember I just have to press it to pop
if you want self nascent flash, use raw intuition
nascent flash is for party member now
ahhhhhh I see, thank you very much!
will doing p4n first affect the loot for p1n to p3n?
No
how can i equip one asphedols ring for my BLM and another one for my SMN? it says i can only have 1 of those unique items
but i need the 2 rings cuz they have different melds for SMN / BLM
is there some kind of workaround ?
like i can store one ring on my retainer but thats clunky as fuck having to swap the rings there everytime
only way to do it
thats so dumb wtf
cant have one on you if you take it out tho
wait am i stupid. how do i swap rings when i have one equipped and one in my saddlebag
can i bypass these from the crafter quest with the market board or do i have to buy the book anyways
waht item
yes you can buy the item
its the lvl 61+ job quests that cant be bought on the mb
bc they just give you the item
tyty

did they forget to put the free trial back to the game on steam?
oh thought it was back my bad then
just base game rn
they're probably monitoring activity
to see the impact OCE has
currently I don't really get major queues anymore even during the rush hour
or get a enw healer..
idk if that helps
like, to fill in for a dungeon after someone left?
he tiny
its like 5am for most of the US so you have like 5% of the normal population queueing for dungeons
i noticed ppl mod their glam in this game is there a discord where i can ask for someone to make a special type of glam?
mod glams ?
yes change the clothing
like create their own glams ?
you could check out the many mod pages and check out creators and see if they take requests or paid comissions
yes thank you!!
because i want a custom made one and willing to pay
popular mod pages are ffxivmods and glamourdresser, just google em
@solemn jewel ok ty 😄
ok then
it replaces assets in game for yourself
For the 10 chocobo feathers if you transfer to a new world, is it all characters or just the one being transferred?
so it's your own files etc
wow some even do tattos, some nice creators here
wonder if they have a proto molucule glam 🙂
when do we think trial weapons for dancer and gunbreaker will be coming
its basically random
5.2 had crafted gnb/dnc shinryu weps that added normal weapons to the trial, 5.5 had crafted byakko weapons that dnc/gnb didn't get
do FF Devs frown upon modding ?
ye all mods are client side
so people are free to use them anyway
it’s illegal in their policy to have tools that track your game and shit
so if you don’t say anything it’s fine
the mod program disables mods on its own if theres a patch iirc
If there’s a patch it’ll take a bit
kk
all mods break after patches normally but are up and running a bit after
the people who own and run the mod program turn it off themselves to make sure they can catch up with any changes
they have to make sure the code is compatible
but they do it almost every patch
ye smth like that
they have to make their own update for the mod program
to follow the update to the game
gottcha like act
Should be for the one that just transferred i think, since most people would just make an alt to get them. not sure though
Is free trial open yet?
no
how do i remove armour from my chocobo
So if i got my current bis gear are astronomies useless then ? Outside of other jobs ?
hi!, how many gran company delivery items of the same one can you deliver per day?
to get exp? im leveling alchemist from 81 to 82
Once per day
thanks!
Current bis uses astronomy tomes
After you're done sure alt jobs or stockpile for next tier
Hey I got a question about the Monk abilities Form Shift and Perfect Balance.
As I understand it I should use Perfect Balance to spam dragon kick into bootshine and vice versa.
But I have no idea what to do with Form Shift
(I just got the abilities)
prepull/downtime spell to keep rotation flowing
no, the crafted gear for next tier will use astronomy materials, but a new currency will be added for tome BiS
so its like astornomies will become the "new aphorisms" usage wise and we get another one on top for new gear ?
yup
so i can now stockpile astronomies to make some money later
aphorism will be replaced completely by astronomy in that sense
any new use for aphorisms ?
it'll be a defunct currency, you'll only be able to convert it into astronomy
yup
thanks alot
When is the deadline for new character bonus on OCE server?
i assume this repeats every new tier ?
it does
ok thx
how large is usually the ilvl gap between current bis and crafted gear next tier ?
should be 10 ilvl
crafted is 10 higher ?

What should it be used for then for prepulls?
prepull and situations where the boss is untargetable, yes
im not 100% sure about new monk but i think all rotations will start with dragon kick?
Form Shift Twin snake/Four Point Fury for the buff > Perfect Balance Dragon Kick/Bootshine spam?
and like this your first bootshine will have leaden fist for the 2nd set of skills
while you're leveling i dont think it really makes a big difference
as you'll lack most of the usage for proper openers
Patch 6.08: Phantom Rush now 1,150 Potency. No use changes.
New? Got too many skills? Made the mistake of using a level skip and have no idea what anything does? Just hate reading? Try this guide out!
This guide seeks to teach new Monks how to Monk properly, without getting too deep into optimization. I'll be showing off and explaining some o...
you can reference this
but at higher levels it makes a diff in order to properly use your nadis
Thanks!
it has explanantion on stuff liek that
and for endgame rotation check the balance
hiya i was wondering if anyone has a recruitment link?
where do i put that sorry im new
on your mogstation
When is the deadline for new character bonus on OCE server? The gil reward
Until they change serverstatus and we don't know when that is
we don't have an exact deadline, but the new server status shouldn't change for at least a few months yet, and even then there might still be preferred servers with the bonus
I see. Thanks!
sorry umm how do u get there
U can type mogstation on google
thanks i found it haha
What do you got from recruitment link?
probably nothing
lol
they get aetheryte tickets exp headpice an emote
and some gear tokens
whats gear tokens
i may get another 5 feathers if they sub for 150 days xD
or feathers haha
its basically a thing you can trade in for gear
oo
saves you some farming later on
oo
does ff14 make anyone elses left arm/wrist feel a bit funny or am I just weird
no i play with controller = D
depends on your keybind setup, might want to change it around a bit if it's causing you strain
Are u using an optimal setup?
I've made it as ergo as i can
don't have to reach past 5 on the num row
put for some reason this game and this game only makes my wrist sore/weak
have you tried controller ?
^
probably better learning controller then hurting yourself

I don't get why its only ff14
maybe just more buttons
typing for hours on end
a couple hours of ff14
where can i grab brd ?
starts as archer in gridania
ya im lv 30 arch
should just be able to follow the quest under your msq then
kk ty
have to have completed the level 20 msq "sylph-management" and the archer job quest "the one that got away" as well
ya im on training w/ Aliapoooo now
good luck !
I don't remember but probably not
nah this one ez, jsut hitting targets in trees lol
Hiya I was wondering where is the feather you get for the recruit rewards?
Oooo
Any items that boost exp I saw something the smith but I dunno what it means
for a quest I'm doing it requires level 42 items, can someone tell me what's something I can get easily?
what level are you
what does plate selection do and how do i use it
level 50, these are my current items:
did you do your lvl 50 job quest
yes
and you opened the coffer?
wait one sec I might not have lol
how do I check
can do /isearch melee
^
then probably haven't done
okay
check your main scenario quest tracker
ok I'll do it rn
How many jobs can I have?
all of them
Do you play something else? Maybe you want to loosen up if you're pushing your wrists on your desk or buy a wrist rest
@opal crystal
hhey guysss, im back with another question

Can I save my skills placement as when I swap from scholar to summoner not to get scrambled around ?
is it as you progress through a zone, your mount speed is faster in that zone?
Only in ARR

Later you'd need to buy a riding map
ok, thanks!
But it's better to just unlock flying in those zones
its up until SB actually
the riding maps for the first tier are for shadowbringers/endwalker
Oh huh
since they don't have second tiers
I never noticed the increase in stb
I know I'm probably gonna get a lot of hate for this question, but here goes: I really like FF and the combat system, but I hate the fact that it's 90% dialogues and just 10% actual gameplay, maybe even less. I am a wow player and got used to the "a lot of combat, little story" type of system. I hear a lot of people play this game for the story and say that it's the most important thing in the game and that it's worthless to play FF if you skip the story (someone actually told me to uninstall the game if I'm not willing to read the dialogues). The question is: Can I skip the story and play the actual game or do I HAVE TO read it in order to understand the game? Is there any way to read the story AFTER the game or only by leveling up through it?
theres new game plus
but even if you skip you still have to do story
i mean, you don't need to know the story to be good at the combat or mechanics
MSQ yeah, but I mean skip the dialogues
but you won't get the story if you randmoly skip parts of it
I'll do the quests, I just have no interest at all in the dialogues
I used to play more other stuff until recently when i got hooked on ff14, and no other game has made my wrist like that ;-;
Thats fine
There are 189230817230219 dialogues for each quest...
thinking I might be tensing it weird maybe
are the co chests from out FC ?
what
company chests
it's a free company chest yes
kk always wondered what the H it was
its for replaying the story
which is not really that important for you, since you don't care about it
but if you ever feel like going thru it, then you can
Ohh, so I can skip everything and then do JUST the story?
yeah
That's perfect
thats what the msq tracker is for more or less
do note, that even if you buy an msq skip you still have to do the current expac's msq
I wanna know the story, and I want to go through it, but when I don't feel like playing
whether you skip thru all of that or not
it gets unlocked in chunks
You unlock NG+ for a certain part of the story as you finish them
Is there a roadmap out yet for this years events?
Is there any item apart from Brand New Ring for post lvl 30
not until lvl 50 poetics
I finally unlocked my first mount and basic companion, how do you get more companions are can you get non chocobo ones?
just the chocobo for compainion
Yeah i wanna lvl alts and im lvl 55
bozjan earring is the only one you can get currently, but it requires a level 80 job
or earrings from preorders but missed the bus on that one
do i need 80 to equip or to buy?
you need a lvl 80 job to be able to unlock bozja
in order to get the earring, but the min lvl to equip is 71
ty
When is home world transfer gonna be up again?
usualy how much it cost for a desginer to design my small house ?
already back up, but may be prone to congestion issues
ah got it
extremely dependent on who you commission and the complexity of the design
it's something you very much have to research/find out yourself
A friend of mine wants to join my (full) server, is there any way for him to luck his way in or no shot?
If it's Congested then no chance at all.
i tried to search but i couldn't find straightforward answer
what about the max price like 10m gil ?
this discord has a role/channel for finding people to commission on NA datacenters
is there an eu server
!status shiva
yep
Is there a xp bonus on any eu server?
nope
do story quests at level 50 give less xp ?
whats good to buy with white scrip
each of the level caps do that with their story quests
I generally just default to whichever materia sells the best if i don't need anything specific
alright
grades 7 and 8 are probably the best ones, but 4 and 5 might have a surprise or two
okay so I actually have to do daily roulettes, dungeons, and side quests now?
and are there more daily roulettes unlocked at level 50? so I can gain more XP?
No u don't need to level up
nope, the experience goes back to being good once you're in the next expansion proper
Heavenswards first quest is lvl 50
I haven't bought game yet so can't do that lol
Heavensward is part of trial
o
Trial/starter edition goes to lvl 60 and includes Heavensward
okay I see
how many ARR quests are there?
like till which level
well technically 50
I want to finish ARR before I move on
but HW also starts at 50
80 quests for the patch story of ARR
