#

sorry im very new

leaden ginkgo
#

Sorry for asking here but google results didn't know. How big is the installation of FFXIV currently?

leaden ginkgo
#

@real fractal Okay, thank you :)

Are Grand Company Standing ranks based on how many GC seals you earned during the week? I can see my friends / FC friends lodestone activities with "X has achieved rank XX in the Grand Company Standings", but mine have always shown as "--" even though I definitely earned some GC seals during the week from roulettes, gear turn ins, etc. I'm on Second Storm Lieutenant and max level if that means anything.

It's PvP.

nova umbra
#

are these irrelevant now? Like I can't even make money off of them?

narrow jay
#

You can turn them in to Doma.

#

Well.

#

you can turn them into materia and turn those in to Doma

AST in the balance shows best gear to have before doing savages (like, best ilvl 580 gear for week1 savages), but it doesn't show the same for DRG. For drg my best ilvl 580 gear should be crafted?}

WAR question. Is there a reason to keep Storm's Path on the hotbar after getting Storm's Eye?

heavy wadi
#

yes

heavy wadi
#

there are no useless abilities.

modest igloo
#

20 vs 10

heavy wadi
#

path also has a heal

modest igloo
proven lantern
#

Just making sure. I thought it was a weird upgrade

modest igloo
#

ideally you'll just be using eye for the buff

#

then storms path for dps

wheat plume
heavy wadi
#

stats will not change you doing less damage than a tank.

merry merlin
polar badge
#

Well, drg would like as little skill speed as possible but if you're doing less than a tank, stats won't change that.

heavy wadi
#

get your opener down. beat the p3s SSS dummy.

#

if you're consistently the worst performing dps then you're really doing something questionable rotation wise.

#

or you don't have food....

wheat plume
modest igloo
#

whatever the gear lets you throw in

polar badge
#

The answer to that is more nuanced because it involves stat tiering but the difference is negligible

modest igloo
#

if crit and det full, throw in dh

polar badge
#

It shouldn't matter unless you were chasing marginal dps increases

heavy wadi
#

even at 580 you should not be doing less dps than a tank.

twilit arch
#

Honestly at that point, you would need to look at like etro and see if you hit the stat tier

# heavy wadi get your opener down. beat the p3s SSS dummy.

the best I achieved was 4% with ilvl 584 and food, but not all my materia is X, some is IX, so I wanted to have X before trying again, and because that I wanted the best 580 (I have all 580, 2 590 and 1 600, but all ithe 580 are from normal raid drops, so no pentameld)

go watch woops' video on drg. because that's what you need.

If you can get your hands on a drg log of yours put it in ffxiv analysis. That should show you any glaring issues in your playstyle

MSQ Tracker image guide
  1. Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.

  2. 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.

outer plank
#

youll find it easier when you level alt classes

wraith vapor
#

MSQ gives a lot of exp

outer plank
#

be sure to finish your class quest too to unlock your soul crystal and get the other 70% of your skill kit

can i reach lvl 50 in 2-3 hours by doing msq?

rugged thicket

no

outer plank
rugged thicket
#

it took me 2 hours on oceania alt to reach 30

outer plank
#

a few days of diligently going through the msq and youll be there

foggy marsh
#

no i made a bet if i get to 50 i get to choose any custom i want from shop

#

so i need something fast

outer plank
#

depending on the hours you put in

boreal storm
#

That was a dumb bet

outer plank
#

the higher levels you get, the longer it takes to level, ofc quests scale, youll just notice it will gradually get a bit slower

fresh dagger
#

Which relic weapons (if any) glow red?

#

I want a cool glam for my RDM

boreal storm

Well you only have 70 or 80 relics

Whats the drop version called?

the one from the EX is zurvanite rapier

#

i can see how Thrill of Battle synergizes a tiny bit with Shake it Off's dispel effect, but i can't imagine why would i ever want to dispel Vengeance/Raw Instinct with it, that just sounds like a mistake

outer plank
#

if you have repeated damamge coming out

cursive ridge
#

that would require a pretty big amount of preplanning

Can someone help me with viera'fying a name?

I bought end walker through ps4 but when checking my expansions through service account status I did not have them.

I did purchase starter edition years ago and atm my account has been played up to stormbringer

outer plank
#

but im no warrior player

#

so i dont know how they plan it out

#

i just know knowing your entire rotation through out a fight isnt to hard, when it comes to preplanning stuff

outer plank
#

you should of gotten something in your email

boreal storm
#

If it’s PS4 it’d automatically get applied

outer plank
#

ah

#

and he bought it off the playstation store right?

#

i mean i'd assume so

#

yeah it should apply then, maybe it needs time to process or something

vivid valley
#

since hevensward is free do i still have to download it or was it alreayd downloaded when i downloaded the game?

boreal storm
mossy halo
#

I’ve had the starter otherwise I wouldn’t have gotten all the way to stormblood

vivid valley
#

i just hit lvl 50 and went to the area to find the quest that the wiki told me to go and the quest wasnt there so i was wondering if i jsut have to download it

leaden ginkgo
#

@boreal storm Sorry for disturbing you again but I managed to download the launcher, reset password and login but I'm stuck with the launcher asking for a serial key. I haven't downloaded the game itself yet. My account is (should at least) be trial. Never purchased anything etc.

#

Got a 60 on it

#

Maybe I'm just dumb

boreal storm
#

Check your mogstation just to be sure

raven sage
boreal storm
#

You probably downloaded the full game launcher

outer plank
raven sage
#

and if you had the game open when you bought it, close it and open it again

mossy halo

If it means anything btw I do not have a sub

Copers think they’ll return with the PvP update

#

6.1?

#

or later than that?

If I remember correctly, PvP updates have usually come in .x5 patches.

Ah...

#

Can I buy level 80 gatherer gear with white scripts?

open ember
#

Under white scrips

marsh lava
#

yeaaah where

twilit arch
#

the pvp update is happening in 6.1

marsh lava
#

do I have to unlock it somewhere?

#

I know that I had to go to rhalgr's reach for level 70

twilit arch
#

you need to unlock the eulmore house of splendors to unlock it on all white scrip vendors

marsh lava
#

right

#

I forgot eulmore was a thing

#

thank you

marsh lava
#

bought a hat and a coat but realized soon enough

#

thank you again

#

I was capped on scripts so I had to find somewhere to spend them on

mortal aurora
#

Whats the best way to level alt jobs? im leveling bard but im stalled around level 32

pure zenith
#

alternatives include potd (palace of the dead) if you are having trouble with long queues

zinc orbitBOT
ruby plover
#

hey guys i got a new controller for ffxiv, but when i use it, the right joystick is apparently moving when im not moving it so the camera keeps automatically moving

#

How do i fix this?

urban grotto
#

so after I use this item, how do I equip it? do I have to remove gear?

patent citrus
#

its just a fashion accessories afaik

#

so you dont need to take off anything, like wearing an umbrella

urban grotto
#

ah ok

upper cove
ruby plover
upper cove
#

That I have no idea

mortal aurora
#

i dont understand, what is this and why cant i use these?

tepid stag
#

how hards p4s compared to p3s

patent citrus
#

not your current floor probably

#

and that job icon is bard

#

so use your bard and then you can queue

mortal aurora
#

I am using my bard

modest igloo
patent citrus
#

oh nvm the first one is an archer

#

just delete the first one

modest igloo
#

i've also heard pinax is hella fun and rough

mortal aurora
#

So do I have to constantly delete save files if I want to level a different class?

patent citrus
#

yeah, you can't queue with that save game if you are a bard already

mortal aurora
#

Damn that sucks

patent citrus
#

just use the 2nd one and delete the first one

mortal aurora
#

Is there a reason why?

patent citrus
#

people usually queue from floor 51-60

#

cause that's how it works

cursive ridge
#

because it's a japanese dev, they have very strange ideas about gameplay conveniences sometimes

steep egret
mortal aurora
#

How do I select floors? I've only done 1-10

patent citrus
#

you can't, checkpoint is only if you done floor 50

#

keep climbing up with your second* save file

steep egret
#

to Start, you can only select 1-10, then later 51-60, once youve got there once

patent citrus
#

till you reach floor 50

steep egret
#

you need to keep playing the same save file, to get up further

#

so once you clear 1-10, you then queue up again but select the current save, which will start a level 11

#

you might have to be patient, you'll wanna play during peak hours, not a lot of people play the floors inbetween
you'll also not be able to go straight to 50, as aetherpool stats need to be increased to actually be able to play higher floors
so you need to repeat lower floors a bit before you can go higher

livid island
#

is it worth buying gear from gear vendors to desynthesize

#

im too lazy to make 200 steel ingots myself again (and also the ungodly amounts of crystals i need for whatever doh i have to level)

modest igloo
#

depends on how much you tend to desynth

#

if you're farming mounts a lot then ye

#

if not ive still gotten the big crafting mats without the high levels

livid island
#

so its a viable strat then

#

i thought such an obvious thing would be a devs already seen this coming moment

icic

modest igloo
#

tbf some of the ex weapons didnt even drop the crafted mat until 5.5

#

and it was totally random

#

like 4.3, 3.5, exs didnt drop or somethin

livid island
#

wow

#

normal arr dungeon stuff can be desynthed tho right?

modest igloo
#

ye

#

but the mats tend to be pretty worthless

boreal storm

I don’t know why you would

anyone a housing connoisseur know any objects that would work as a round doorknob?

where can i find list of where log monsters are

jade quartz
brave sky
#

ok thank you 🙂

jade quartz
#

carpenter and weaver are obvious ones but like

#

it doesn't stop there

#

and presuming you'd want to make your own gathering gear and tools too would mean doing all of them

#

and miner as well

#

basically if you want to get into crafting and gathering, do them all

sudden dock
#

when ppl farm stB raid for tank achievement, which mount/achivement is it for?

jade quartz
#

one of these.

jovial quarry
#

Each tank has an associated mount that they earn through those achievements

jade quartz
#

Rewards armoured lion/bear/panther/sabretooth mount for PLD/WAR/DRK/GNB respectively

jovial quarry

Paladin gets lions. Warrior gets bears. Dark Knight gets panthers. Gun breaker gets sabertooth tigers

#

my MB is broken, it doesnt show the number of items that are selling, anyone know how to fix this?

obsidian patio
leaden ginkgo
lost grove
#

Which pieces r worth getting in ur opinion

vast hinge
#

entirely depends on your class

obsidian patio
#

if you're doing savage pandaemonium, look at your jobs BiS sets and follow those

vast hinge
#

and whether you think you can clear savage in a reasonable timeframe or not

lost grove
#

Mostly all healers

vast hinge
#

if you don't see yourself clear P4S anytime soon, weapon for every class would be first

lost grove
#

Ok

oblique yew
#

how do i attune to the aetheryte at radz-at-han? the guard wont allow me inside

vast hinge
#

keep doing quest

#

and you will be allowed to

lost grove
#

Msq progress

obsidian patio
#

you'll be allowed to attune to Radz-at-Han around 85 MSQ

#

basically when you're done with the story in that area

#

or close to

oblique yew
#

ah. i asked cuz Thancred told me to attune

obsidian patio
#

he meant the thavnair aetheryte

boreal anvil
#

how do i make dyes and get pigments

obsidian patio
#

!quest color your world

zinc orbitBOT
# obsidian patio !quest color your world
Ul'dahn Sidequests | Required Level: 15

Swyrgeim wants to show you a whole new world of colors.

Quest Starts At

Swyrgeim
Western Thanalan (X: 12.65 Y: 14.31)

Quest Ends At

Swyrgeim
Western Thanalan (X: 12.65 Y: 14.31)

Next Quests

Simply to Dye For

obsidian patio
#

complete this quest and level up any crafting class to 30.

#

and to get the pigments level up either miner or botanist to 30

boreal anvil
#

cool

#

great thank you

#

wait just to make sure, are they easyish to get once u have the job

obsidian patio
#

yeah

boreal anvil
#

and also should i do miner and botanist or just one

obsidian patio
#

since you can't HQ dye you can just use progression skills and not worry about quality

#

so they're braindead easy to do once you have enough craftsmanship to do in a couple of synth actions

#

either one works just fine for pigments, they unlock at the same level

#

but if you want to be self-sufficient in general as a crafter, then definitely both

#

fisher is much less important in terms of crafting, since for the most part only CUL really uses fish here and there

#

and a majority of fish are just for selling to NPCs

boreal anvil
#

for now

#

at least

obsidian patio
#

either or

#

no difference

boreal anvil
#

are the cyrstals you need also botany/mining

naive ridge
#

yes

#

you can also garden for them or just buy from the marketboard

unkempt hinge
#

Is there anyway to aetherial reduction a bunch of items all at once

obsidian patio
#

nope

blissful grove
#

Might be a stupid question but if you're doing unsynced ShB content, how much can you reasonably ignore in terms of mechanics? Obviously you can't faceroll the same as if you were doing HW stuff but I want to know if I should still watch a guide and learn all the mechanics.

jade quartz
#

there are some unsync-specific guides out there already

#

basically do the mechanics, but you'll cheese through some of the damage and skip phases

narrow jay
#

The fights themselves aren't super difficult to learn, though.

blissful grove
#

Well for clarity the one I'm trying to do is E12S.

modest igloo
#

you'll still need to do the mechs up to the kill

#

which is around dwayne and basic rel

jade quartz
#

there'll surely be an unsync guide for that one

cloud pendant
#

Which blue quests should I complete?

leaden ginkgo
#

Sorry if dumb question but first time launching game and i made character when it asks to choose a world it says none are accepting new characters right now? Does that just mean the server is full

leaden ginkgo
#

Does that mean like at the moment or is it full for a while

obsidian patio
#

full until SE changes it themselves manually

#

which may not be until patch 6.1 in march/april

leaden ginkgo
#

ohh okay thank you guys ill try

narrow jay
cloud pendant
#

I meant like which ones should I do and which ones aren't worth doing

narrow jay
#

I know.

obsidian patio
#

ones that unlock dungeons aren't important, but they're a good source of poetics due to the one-time bonus

olive heath
#

for PLD you can't have shield step 3, sword step one from the relic quest right?

obsidian patio
#

technically yes

#

you upgrade the sword and shield to step 3, and then buy the stage 1 sword back from the calamity salvager

#

but for upgrading, you have to upgrade them together

olive heath
#

oh cool and will the glow appear if you glam it onto something else?

obsidian patio
#

the glow is on the weapon itself, so yes

#

if you mean if you can move the glow onto a different weapon model, then no

olive heath
#

Though the second one would be cool, the first response answered my question awesome thanks for the answers

cloud pendant
#

why does this Challenge log quest not complete? I finished 3 daily roulettes and it didn't complete the quest :(

obsidian patio
#

it has to specifically be dungeons

#

trials and raids don't count

cloud pendant
#

oh ok

obsidian patio
#

so expert, 50/60/70/80, leveling, and main scenario would count towards this

olive heath
#

do people still do Eureka content?

jade quartz
#

yes they do

#

but you're gonna wanna aim for peak activity hours

olive heath
#

ok thanks :)

leaden ginkgo
#

Is there a way to check what glamour i have on?

obsidian patio
#

if you hover over an item's tooltip, the name will swap between the name of the actual item and the applied glamour

leaden ginkgo
#

Oooh

thanks

clever barn
#

Do I have to pentameld my gears before I try for Pandaemonium Savage? If not, what gear should be the best gear set for trying it?

warm snow
#

Normal melds at minimum, if you're new to savage you probably need the pentamelds for dps

green grail
#

also its just general.. good pf manners to do so

clever barn
#

Okay thanks a lot 👍

naive ridge
# clever barn Okay thanks a lot 👍

It also depends on the speed your party your party is clearing at. If you forsee that they are going to take months, pentameld isn't really necessary as by that time you would have tomegear.

#

I wouldn't say that pentameld is necessary for P1S and P2S

worn flume
#

more damage good

naive ridge
#

yea but its a cost benefit, materia prices are dropping, but if you arent clearing p2s in two or 3 weeks you dont really need it

worn flume
#

not strictly necessary but still worth doing, not like you're going to be replacing it any time soon if it's taking you a month to do P2S

naive ridge
#

depending on how much gil they got not at week 1 materia prices

worn flume
#

doesn't have to be gil either, you can get more than enough just by doing hunt trains and expert dungeons regularly

naive ridge
#

i wouldnt recommend people do hunt trains with the congestion, for dungeons its adventurer in need, plus opportunity cost

worn flume
#

? congestion died down over a month ago

naive ridge
#

tell that to the people bottlenecked changing instances

worn flume
#

so absolutely nobody

naive ridge
#

okay

worn flume
#

even at the peak of the congestion changing instances for hunt trains was hardly an issue because train conductors would just wait a few minutes for everyone to get through

warm narwhal
#

if i play summoner am i going to use the pet hotbar constantly or no

worn flume
#

nah

warm narwhal
#

oh

worn flume
#

you can safely hide the pet hotbar from your hud

glossy flare
#

You do kinda use the place action in high end stuff, usually so your pet stays in the middle of the arena

#

Not a priority right now though

worn flume
#

better to macro it on high end summoner

#

esp since your placement resets every time you use a summon

fathom glacier
#

i have a question, how does fishing bait work

glossy flare
#

You choose a bait and then start fishing. Depending on location and what you want to catch you will want to use different kinds of bait

fathom glacier
#

something like this, what does the bait part mean?
i already know what Mooch is so i don't need much explaining

glossy flare
#

That's pretty much it. Just be aware that bait is usually lost after catching something while lures can be reused. (Thry can still break howrver)

fathom glacier
#

is the right most part the best bait for that location or?

All the good weapon glams start at 50

No glow 4 u

so this one i can use at lvl 90

No

That's specifically reaper gear

At least the armor is

The weapon is from mogstation and only works for reaper

ah i see

if that is the process that requires me to enter my square enix id and password, no because that is what is saying INVALID.

i'll get a screen shot of it and show you

Oh ok

you need to put the game code into the website "mogstation"

also u can just delete the pic

so u are opening the steam version ?

yes

have you entered your code?

#

if you create a FFXIV account you can use that as a square enix log in, But if you have a square enix account, You need to make a different FFXIV account and register any products you buy from ur squenix acc to ur XIV account

#

but yeah. Use mogstation. Its essentially your goto for everything FFXIV

leaden ginkgo
#

thank everyone for your patience with this old man

barren monolith
#

its no problem, ffxiv has his ways of making things a little more abstract if u don't pay attention too good

leaden ginkgo
#

i remember having to login to two separate things to play another game actually so its not unusual

#

mogstation is saying invalid as well haha!

#

i think I need to create a new account

drowsy hornet
#

I only know this because I thought the SE and FFXIV accounts are the same and wanted to play the free trial on a account that had already played the beta so I send a ticket, turned out they are completely different, and are just linked to the same e-mail address

frosty badger
#

Jk, why is mount name not shown when mount is used?

nimble rain
#

can you do story quest when world travel?

frosty badger
#

Minion name is shown when summoned

#

But not any mount

leaden ginkgo
#

do engineering and survival manuals affect custom delivery exp

frosty badger
#

I wonder

hidden cypress
cursive ridge
worn flume
#

they don't

barren monolith
#

what jobs should i get as a scholar (disciple of hand/land ones)

steep egret
# frosty badger But not any mount

most mmos work like this, a mount just removes your character, and brings in a new model, with your character attached to it, when you select yourself, well its still you, the mount isn't separate

#

some mmos show the mount name on the buff bar, but ff14 doesn't

steep egret
barren monolith
#

for example i played gw2 and there at first crafting was very useful

#

thats why im asking

#

tyyyyyy

wintry chasm
#

Well

cursive ridge
#

well crafting is useful here too. just not required

wintry chasm
#

In XIV crafting is really intricate so for example making a weaver top might require cloth from weaver, leather from leather worker, precious metals from goldsmith, and alchemist stuff

steep egret
#

if you're gonna do crafting, most crafting and gathering jobs, feed into eachother in some way
except for FSH/CUL, you're best off doing all of them, or none of them

wintry chasm
#

So when you do want to do crafting you should do them all at the same time yeah ^

#

Unless you literally want to spend millions on materials you could have just made yourself

barren monolith
#

ahhh i see

hidden cypress
#

spending millions on materials is way easier though 😄

median agate
wintry chasm
#

But yeah crafting itself isn't really necessary

barren monolith
#

i am lvl 48 rn and main story just stopped giving me quests until 50

wintry chasm
#

Yeahh

barren monolith
#

so thought i mighth fill the void by doing both

wintry chasm
#

Can do

cursive ridge
#

run aurum vale one or two times

#

should get you there

steep egret
#

levelling crafting/gathering jobs doesn't do anything for your combat job though, exp and levels for all jobs are separate

#

so doing something else, wont level you up to 50

barren monolith
#

ty very much for the info guys

#

❤️

steep egret
#

you need to Use the job to get it to level

My username Square Enix dosen't work and the Key code game dosen't fit in

(i think) its a code you get in an email when you make an account, not 100% sure though

No thats ur square username im p sure

You need to add ur game code to ur "mogstation" account

im genuinely curious, does Square not tell you to do this when you buy the game?
with the amount of people we get who dont do this, im just wondering if they literally dont tell you and just let you figure it out on your own

im p sure square store tells u to add the code to a mogstation account

not sure about steam

steep egret

right, so its the usual, people not reading the product description

is tales of adventure worth im thinking of buying the realm reborn one cus it is kinda boring

realm reborn part

steep egret
#

dunno about others, but i like to know where my money is going and how to actually redeem what ive bought

solemn jewel
#

not really

#

arr kinda sets up the entire rest

and if u just buy the storyskip you'll have to level without main story which just means grinding dungeons

steep egret

oh i dont get

No, the story boost just skips ur msq to the next expansion, ur jobs stay all the same

ah

i wont skip it than

there is no pint

but the walking around kills me

FFXIV is a game you kinda have to take slow and smell the flowers. If you only focus on endgame and obsess over reaching endgame, you might not have as much fun.

u get a mount at main story level 20

the side quests

and been fishing

Why

ah no dont

dont do side quests

plush scarab

oh rly

#

?

hidden cypress

yeah waste of time

steep egret

maybe later

solemn jewel
#

they give no exp

#

its just flavour

hidden cypress
#

MSQ gives more than enough xp

steep egret
#

it will make it feel even worse

plush scarab
#

SO IT WAS ALL A WASTE

steep egret
#

they give almost no exp

pulsar escarp
#

Well if you had fun

plush scarab
#

OH

steep egret
#

do them later for flavour, there are some good side quests

#

but not for levelling

plush scarab
#

i mean fishing and cookng is fun

steep egret
#

yeah thats fine

pulsar escarp
#

Yea and many people level those anyway

vast torrent
#

not all a waste, some sidequests unlock things and some give you okay gear for leveling

steep egret
#

just do the MSQ quests, adn class quests

pulsar escarp
#

people advise you stick to MSQ at first anyway just to unlock more

steep egret
#

get past ARR and into the good stories

plush scarab
#

AHA

#

so i was doingit it all wrong

#

that is why im taking ages

steep egret
#

yeah, more you unlock, the less boring it seems

#

because you have so many options later on, on content to do

#

early on, its a bit limited

vast torrent
#

Just Take your time, dont focus on endgame, read the text, and go at ur own pace

steep egret
#

Everything is locked behind MSQ progress

solemn jewel
vast torrent
#

Trust me. There is more to do for a person leveling than there is at endgame

solemn jewel
#

those u wanna do

plush scarab

so i just focus on main quest and blue ones

wow ok it's ok thanks you

steep egret

yup pretty much, and class/job quests,

naive sigil
#

It's not enough specified ..

plush scarab

ye ye it makes sense

#

and flying is after lvl 50

#

right ?

steep egret
#

if you're a completionist, you can come back later for the side quests

vast torrent
#

yes but only for ARR areas

steep egret
#

itll be easier, because you'll have mounts, flying, be higher level, etc

hidden cypress
#

post ARR you need to gather aether currents to fly in a zone

Flying FAQ

'How can I unlock Flying?'

Flying is unlocked in A Realm Reborn zones simply by completing the level 50 story quest 'The Ultimate Weapon'.

Flying is further unlocked in the expansions through the collecting of a zone's Aether Currents, with every zone having ten 'green' Aether Currents found in the overworld and five 'yellow' Aether Currents obtained through the MSQ and side quests marked with a plus sign. Azys Lla is the only zone to not have any green Aether Currents. You must collect all Aether Currents in a zone to be able to fly.

'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'

Upon obtaining the Story Quest 'Divine Intervention' you get the Aether Compass, which is a key item you can use to locate the nearest non-quest Aether Current. This can be set to your Hotbar for ease of use. Alternatively, you can use this website to show the location of all Aether Currents for a zone. http://heavenswhere.com/

It will my first time in this game, FF XIV is the best MMORPG better than Wow or other's things?

solemn jewel
#

Depends on what you like

vast torrent
#

it depends

naive sigil
#

😨

solemn jewel
#

FFXIV is a very good rpg, thats all i can say

steep egret
#

its very well regarded, but it really depends on you

vast torrent
#

XIV is VERY Story focused and plays alot more like a traditional RPG than an MMO

leaden ginkgo
#

same here Khazi. first time player about to launch the game.

steep egret
#

nothing is the Best, overall, there are different kinds of people who like different things

#

but ff14 is regarded as a very good mmo, yes

naive sigil
#

Ok

vast torrent
#

if you dont enjoy reading or story, this likely isnt the game for you, although there are still plenty of things outside of story to do.

naive sigil
steep egret
#

there are a lot of people who dont like the massive amount of story

vast torrent
#

yes

steep egret
#

a Huge part of the game IS the story

vast torrent
#

You will be doing a LOT of reading.

naive sigil
#

a lot of ppl in game read dialogue ?

#

yes

#

there is a lot of story

But if there are cinematic i don't relly need to read all npc dialogue no?

will iget a reminder that my 30 days are up?

you really do miss out on a lot of story context without reading dialogue.

there is a saying about ff14
it's very much a RPG first, MMO second

so means, lots of story

no

How do I get the camera to not spin around to the target when grouping mobs whilst in dungeons? In the past my tank would just throw her axe to an enemy on the side or behind me and the camera would still be pointing in the direction I was running towards. (I'd continue running forwards) Now it spins to the target that I threw my axe, which is really disorienting when I'm mobbing and I suddent run 180.

steep egret
#

there are references, common things in the games over the years

naive sigil
#

Ok ok cool

steep egret
#

but no direct story links between games

vast torrent
#

FFXIV is more of an RPG that happens to be online. so play it like a story rpg. Smell the flowers, dont focus on endgame, read the dialogue and mess around with what you have.

vast torrent
#

theres no special "IT GETS FUN HERE" point when you reach max lvl. Leveling is just progressing, instead of it being a chore people just do to reach endgame

pulsar escarp
#

? By endgame you can have all the stuff that you didn’t do while levelling

pulsar escarp
#

it’s more than the further you get in MSQ the more there is

#

you can do it now or later

winged cobalt

vast torrent
#

also true you can go through msq and save all the side content for when you finish.

pulsar escarp
#

Play it however you want basically

but imho i think its better to unlock and do sidecontent when its appropriate . Just a me thing but do play however you want

yeah the area theyre in is black brush

proud reef

felt a bit missleading

theyre nowhere near where it says black brush on the map

dont assume the area is just near the name on the map

#

the maps dont show area boundaries

watch the top middle of the screen, to see when you go into a new area, to see where areas stop/start

example, all of this, is blackbrush

only the right, is The Clutch

@void saddle fates in West corthas and sea of cloud

Also bozja fates are really not the fastest for the memories

Cluster farming is the way to go

So i should go there instead pf bojza?

Im farming for the resistance weapon

If you can find a cluster farm party now, that would be ideal. I haven't been to bizja since ew I have no idea if people still do

Is there a way to macro shukuchi? Aiming it on a controller is a bit hard

Otherwise the HW area fates are 100% drop iirc? If its not its still reslly high

Something like that

Okay ill go now to do fates in sea of clouds

@swift pasture have you turned on the setting that limits the distance of the target circle to max btw

Because I wont be able to join my friends company

you aint getting a reefund LMAO

#

steams refund policy is sub 3h of playtime

tired meadow
#

I was in Year 1, bought the expac yesterday

silver ruin
#

bought the expac or the whole game?

#

cuz if you had the base game before, and played more than 3h, steam doesnt do refunds a t that point

#

and SE as a whole doesnt do refunds

void saddle
#

Hello

tired meadow
#

Not my problem, I had a character there and it is ridiculous that you dont keep your 'spot'

silver ruin

you deleted it lmao

#

why would it be kept

#

Can u drop blue and red torture memories in Azs Lla?

#

Needed a new name, look etc, fresh look into the game after years

silver ruin
#

did you own the base game before?

tired meadow
#

I did

silver ruin
#

or previous exansions

#

its quite possible steam wont refund you then

tired meadow
#

Just year 1

silver ruin
#

idk the policy for expansions they have though

#

year one doesnt mean much

#

steam doesnt really do refunds afaik if you played more than 3h

hidden cypress
#

its 2h or owned more than 2 weeks

silver ruin
#

oh

hidden cypress
#

i also think year 1 might have been more thjan 2 weeks ago

silver ruin
#

im not sure how an expansion goes into that since he played hte base game before

drowsy hornet
#

doesn't congestion status change depending on how much the world is full at the moment?

silver ruin
#

you definitely arent getting a refund for the base game though

silver ruin
#

till they change it

tired meadow
#

No I know, dont care about base game

hidden cypress
#

you can apparently refund dlc though

silver ruin
#

oh huh, wild

tired meadow
silver ruin
#

did you play the game more hatn 2h since you purchased hte dlc?

#

i cant spell

silver ruin
#

yea you shoud be ok then

drowsy hornet
#

oh yeah, congested is different than allows creation of new characters

silver ruin
#

idk how SE takes refunds regarding steam though

#

cuase generally if you refund (chargeback since they dont actually do refunds afaik on the main site for purchases for the game) on a non steam account you get banned

drowsy hornet
#

congested doesn't allow creation, but you can't create on standard status if the servers are too full

silver ruin
#

yea, the latter normally eases up at like 3 am local time or w/e

drowsy hornet
#

it did during the endwalker hype, now it's pretty much normal, at least on my server(omega, not congested)

silver ruin
#

yea, some servers its still bad so you gotta do it at early morning hours

amber swift
#

On loiusoix the queue is around 30 players

tired meadow
#

Server status only gets changed on maintenance

drowsy hornet
#

what you are seeing is the login queue

frosty badger
amber swift
#

So what does the login queue get its info from?

drowsy hornet
#

I think something about not letting too many players log in at once because the servers can't handle it.

silver ruin
#

people actively waiting to log on to that server

#

yea something like that too

#

just wait till like 2 am your time or w/e walker and you can make ea character on the server you want unless it says congested (like leviathan for example, or all of aether LMAO)

tired meadow
#

But it is kinda weird that I had just logged in on my 'old' character and had a spot in the server, yet I am unable to create a char in its place

wind zephyr
#

does the pvp reward changes implement already?

wind zephyr
#

okie

silver ruin
drowsy hornet
#

that's it, you didn't have a spot, you had a character on the server

silver ruin
#

same can be said for every other congested server

also that

Oh and guess what, before requesting character restore you have to wait 24h 🤡

Still they are kind of forcing old returning players to spend more money

#

That is just bad

solemn jewel
#

Not really?

hidden cypress
#

by needing expansions?

solemn jewel
#

Usually people just play their old character

silver ruin
#

^

solemn jewel
#

Or make a new one

tired meadow
#

No by having to make them pay for a character rename or a home world transfer

silver ruin
#

thats

tired meadow
silver ruin
#

literally what a lot of mmos charge for

#

wow also doesnt do that shit free

#

lost ark isnt gonna do that shit free likely either

tired meadow
#

Yeah it makes sense, but not when they are fucking this up a lil

solemn jewel
hidden cypress
silver ruin
#

how are they fucking it up a lil?

#

you're the one who fucked up KEKW

#

se has had the same systems in place for over 6 years

tired meadow
#

Yeah so they have had 6 years to upgrade 🤡

silver ruin
#

same trasnfer system, same name change system, same congested status system

#

it works fine for most people

drowsy hornet
#

They are working on it. There's now world visit system, and if I am not mistaken a data center visit system is on the way.

solemn jewel
#

It's not their fault u assumed u could "keep ur place"

tired meadow
silver ruin
silver ruin
drowsy hornet
#

it doesn't but there are improvements

tired meadow
worn flume
#

but that would defeat the point of the congested server status

tired meadow
#

And honestly, congestion has been an issue almost every launch as well as some peak times

hidden cypress
#

usually dont need to, since they have a character there

tired meadow
#

Could have started considering upgrading data centers a while ago

hidden cypress
#

global chip shortage

leaden ginkgo
#

my attempts to enter the right SE id and password continues. now the code that was sent to my email to confirm the change of password is wrong. what fun!

silver ruin
#

most people just roll an alt and leave the other character in place

tired meadow
silver ruin
#

ok same point stands, most people wouldn't need something like that

worn flume
#

then what was the point in deleting it lol

drowsy hornet
#

consider this: the global chip shortage is so bad HP had resorted to selling printer cartridges without DRM

tired meadow
#

You don't have to t ell me t hat, but even before the chip shortage there were congestion issues at times

#

Could have upgraded back then

#

From a business point SE just was too late

silver ruin
#

theres always gonna be congestion issues, but they werent nearly the level that EW saw or aether saw once streamers started playing

#

they werent able to anticipate things like that

drowsy hornet
#

hindsight is 20/20

silver ruin
#

just make a character then transfer ar few months down the line once its not congested

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

hidden cypress
#

just use cwls if you want a group chat

drowsy hornet
#

or restore this one, use the free Fantasia from the end of ARR and change the name if it doesn't fit

worn flume
#

having more servers wouldn't stop certain worlds from being disproportionately more populated compared to others anyway

tired meadow
hidden cypress
#

well you know what they say about patience

tired meadow
drowsy hornet
#

note: you still would have wait for the server not to be full to use the Fantasia, I think

manic rune
#

contact sqex, say your friend deleted it maliciously and they might be able to restore the character

silver ruin
#

depends if its worth it or not to you, not being in the same fc isnt the end of the world if you really wanna play with em you still can

tired meadow
manic rune
#

what do you mean by a year 1 character

#

when did you make it

drowsy hornet
#

character from the start of ARR at 2013 most likely

tired meadow
manic rune
#

if your goal is to join your friend’s fc, just wait out the 24 hours and get your character back

#

congested status won’t be changed until 6.1 most likely

#

so like.. abt 2 months time

tired meadow
# manic rune if your goal is to join your friend’s fc, just wait out the 24 hours and get you...

Yep that is currently my only option. Here is what the GM sent me:

_Unfortunately, in order for us to fully investigate your case, we would advise you to wait at least 24 hours before submitting your request form as we will be unable to identify any deleted character data prior to this time.

Once 24 hours have elapsed, please visit the character restoration request form on our official Support Centre provided below:

then just finish arr and use your free fantasia shrug

manic rune
#

sounds like you have it sorted out then

crude sparrow
#

How do you get tomestone of poetics ? (Im lvl 52)

hidden cypress
#

is this for a ffxiv account or a square enix account or something. think theyre different

#

when you log out in a rested area do you gain rested xp for all of your classes or the one you logged out with?

kind adder
#

All

hidden cypress
#

its for your char and just applies it to any xp u get on any class

drowsy hornet
#

rested XP is for the character, no class. It's used by classes on first come first serve basis.

#

so you need to play first on the classes you want to level faster

#

hellooo anyone know how to remove the header for this kagerou overlay?

plush scarab
#

how do i get to uldah

#

im kinda lost

drowsy hornet
hidden cypress
#

if you didnt start there, msq should take you there through airships

leaden ginkgo
#

remind me please. does mogstation require my Square Enix main username and password or my ffxiv username and password?

silver ruin
leaden ginkgo
#

in that case I am completely flummoxed

plush scarab
#

or how is it called i have no idea

#

the thing with 2 decks

leaden ginkgo
#

covert marlin
#

thank you!

note that you can't use your email to log in to mogstation.

#

But on the regular hud if you click on the part below the the quest description it shows where to go on the map

drowsy hornet
#

either what Walker said or if you have all the aetheryte (fast travel points) you can use them to just teleport to the airship landing(?) not sure about the name

amber swift
#

But you need to attune to all of the aetherytes in the city

drowsy hornet
#

which is a good practice the first time you get to a new city

amber swift
boreal storm
amber swift
drowsy hornet
#

so you can exit the city from any aetheryte instead of walking to the exit

leaden ginkgo
#

@heavy wadi you are a wonder! it never occurred to me to put my email where it says username. I am finally logged back in to Mogstation. what a relief. all I need to do now is enter those details in the launcher.
