[robust crow]

so like 5 buttons

[steep egret]

does't matter how much higher

[desert saddle]

after get max level and finish the free-trial and buy the expansion I probably will focus on unlock those two haha

[robust crow]

sage also doesn't have a damage steroid like scholar or ast

so you can technically say they have less damage buttons than AST or sch

but yea healers are boring as fuck through story

great in dungeons and raids

[half ember]

arent there some classes that start higher level?

sry jobs

[robust crow]

yes

several

[half ember]

yall are killing it with these bots thanks

[robust crow]

always found it funny during instanced MSQ bosses

"oh no you've bested me you are so powerful"

"I literally pressed 1 spell 1000 times until you died"

[half ember]

i feel like i actually have to try on those sinc my gear always sucks and i do no dmg haha

[robust crow]

healers and tanks are worth anywhere between 50-70% of the damage a DPS can do

so don't ignore your damage as a healer

[boreal storm]

If you use the story/job quest gear, you’ll be fine

[robust crow]

they contribute a significant amount

[sudden dock]

should i bring essence of profane into duty finder delubrum or is it bad?

[half ember]

yeah it was just really bad until i got aero 2 and whatever my new aoe stun spell is called

ive gotten a little boost lately for sure with that and the cjob gear at lvl 45-50

[modest igloo]

pretty soon you'll get poetics

!faq poetics

[zinc orbit]

What should I spend my Poetics on? How do I get more?

Text guide on what to spend Tomestones of Poetics on

Video guide on how to get more Tomestones of Poetics

[modest igloo]

that'll give ya ilvl 130 gear

[fringe mountain]

what is parsing

[gleaming finch]

using dps meter

[fringe mountain]

doesnt everyone in savage use dps meter

[gleaming finch]

yeah probably

[left whale]

Very likely

[gleaming finch]

just don't talk about it in game is all

[fringe mountain]

so a parse is just a fight

when u trakc ur damage

[gleaming finch]

a parse is an analysis of your fight

tracks your dps but also a lot of other things

[left whale]

It can be used for analysis
But most people just wanna log their activity and see how it measures up to other people lol

[gleaming finch]

I like it for both of those, seeing how you measure up to other people but also analysing the fight and seeing how you can improve

[fringe mountain]

so is it ranked by people who use same class

or is it treated as if a bot has 100% uptime on every gcd and compares your damage against the theoretical max

[modest igloo]

same class

[upper cove]

Using the dps tracker itself is just called logging afaik.

Parsing is uploading said logs so a ranking is generated

[modest igloo]

the percentile is ranked against other players directly, regardless of gear

[upper cove]

Subtle differences nothing important in the grand scheme of things

[gleaming finch]

also parsers are infinitely more useful if you're at/near max level and can do your job's entire rotation

[upper cove]

Referring to what i said ^

[fringe mountain]

yeah im on about savage stuff

so its basically a way to see how to improve

nice one lads cheers

[upper cove]

Your parse is a way to see how you rank against other people

To improve

You got to plug the logs into xivanalysis

Or Deep dive into the logs itself

To see what went wrong etc

[dry seal]

My friend is first class with the immortal flames and when she's trying to promote, the guy says to talk to commander swift but he doesn't have any quest available, anyone know why?

[boreal storm]

Hunting log

[left whale]

Have they unlocked squadrons?
Come to think of it, the game doesnt really tell you how to rank up

[modest igloo]

i think thats bc it was designed around "oh the playerbase will figure it out"

[dire prawn]

is there any particular why Requiescat is a melee range ability

[sturdy gyro]

Hihihi

[modest igloo]

pretty sure you just do the flagged missions tho

[sturdy gyro]

Game keeps crashing :(

[modest igloo]

fun

[dry seal]

She needs to rank up to unlock squadron

[sturdy gyro]

First time I installed it it had a few errors during installation and then I couldn't get past character creation

[dry seal]

I think it's hunting log rank 2, that's what I had to do, but it doesn't say it anywhere

[sturdy gyro]

Second time, one error midway through and I could sorta play a bit but had to uninstall again

Now I'm installing it for the third time any ideas?

[wraith vapor]

Do you have a pic or do you remember the error you got?

[hushed condor]

if i level scholar will the summoner be the same level as scholar when i pick it up?

[boreal storm]

They share levels, so yes

[hushed condor]

how do i get the other gear options from msqs?

[patent citrus]

craft it

or if it's <50, they usually can be bought from NPC

[boreal storm]

Cap msq gear is usually poetics stuff

[patent citrus]

afaik lv >50, they only give HQ version of the item

[sturdy gyro]

I do I think

[sturdy gyro]

I've disabled all firewalls, I'm installing it on my d drive instead of my SDD drive this time, but ahh

I just wanna play properly. When I installed the second time I could play for like 10 minutes, ran around my starting city, lowered all graphics and stuff but it still kept crashing and coming up with errors

Every other game I own works fine, and I've looked up if I can run the game and ive got more than the recommended specs :/

Installing from steam if that helps

[wraith vapor]

How's your internet connection?

[versed aspen]

How do you make friends in this game ;c Im already in an fc but its kinda hard to make friends

[wraith vapor]

The in-game crash, do you remember what error it showed?

[gleaming finch]

just talk to people

join events if they're going on

help people if they ask questions

[boreal storm]

Start up a convo with a matched party, can’t hurt

[sturdy gyro]

The in game crash didn't come with a msg, just a quick black screen then the game would close

[wraith vapor]

AAAA You've got the Japan tag! What Data Center?

Here's a post from 3 months ago. I'm not sure if it'll work for you but it's the best I could find
https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/qwmte4/psa_if_you_are_blackscreen_crashing_try_this_out/

[sturdy gyro]

If it doesn't work this third time, I'm going to try installing it one more Time tonight on my c drive

Thank you <3

[fast talon]

because pld is a melee class?

[wind zephyr]

does gp matters for fisher retainers?

or just high item level would be enough

[fast talon]

Ya just talk to ppl, ask what they are doing or interested in, you know

[outer mural]

not really, probably adds a gameplay factor to being able to activate your ranged phase

activating it anywhere would be strong

[fast talon]

There have only been a few times where I was in africa and lost a global or had to hardcast a boring lazer beam with channel time

[meager sigil]

Is there any difference between the amount of Scrips you get for these

[outer mural]

higher level mats give more

[meager sigil]

Common sense would lead me to belief the level 80 mats are worth more, but do Grade 4 mats reward more Scrips than Grade 2, for example?

[outer mural]

the lower grade stuff i'm not srue but you shouldn't be collecting it anyway since you're not going to be using old grade stuff for anything

[patent citrus]

grade <4 can't be gathered anymore afaik

currently it's grade 4

[meager sigil]

Alright, so in conclusion: just grab the Grade 4 mats

I'm just farming for Scrips, there's a piece of glam I want

[outer mural]

ye, can't answer ur question exactly but the advice should lead you to pick the mat u want

which is just grade 4 high level stuff

[odd knot]

whats a static?

[outer mural]

it refers to a group with a dedicated schedule, usually for hard content such as savage

[pulsar kayak]

anyway to hide other people's FC names?

[olive heath]

What's peak time for NA? Wanna find peeps to help me with the stormblood relic weapons just 2 of them

[fast talon]

5pm+ central

weekends and tuesdays pop the most

[smoky glade]

does anyone remember if the eorzea encyclopedia is pre-orders only or if it will still be available in the future?

[plain aurora]

Alright. I'm lost. Does anyone have any idea why this won't send the message?

/ac "Swiftcast" <me> <wait.1>
/ac "Ascend" <t> <wait.5>

/party Raising <t>!

/micon "Ascend"

[silver ruin]

you can hide their names totally but idk about just fc, can also hide their titles

[broken fable]

Where can I read the diaries found in dungeons? Namely the Dead Ends

[silver ruin]

has to be /p

not /party

[plain aurora]

That didn't work either.

[silver ruin]

idk then cause thats how all the raise macros ive seen had it, someone else will have to answer it hten ¯_(ツ)_/¯

wait

[plain aurora]

Also no, /party works. I can send a message with a macro that only contains the message, but that's it.

[silver ruin]

why is there a wait.5?

[plain aurora]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[silver ruin]

remove that

[plain aurora]

No, removing the wait doesn't help, that was an attempt to make it work.

[silver ruin]

huh

!faq raisemacro

[zinc orbit]

Error!

No tag named raisemacro exists, Kupo!

[silver ruin]

welp

[feral peak]

try the macro without the empty lines separating them

[plain aurora]

And if I START with the text, it only does the text, nothing else.

OH MY GOD. THANK YOU.

[plain aurora]

THIS.

I can't believe that was it. Me trying to organize my code by keeping text and actions separate broke it.

[cunning crater]

hi guys, so i bought the standard edition a few days ago, i had a blast.
Now, 45 mins ago i bought Endwalker and they didn't send me an email but my money was deducted 🤔

are delayed emails normal

[silver ruin]

yes

did you purchase it from the SE store?

[cunning crater]

yea

i was getting worried lmao

[silver ruin]

sign into your account on the SE store (not the mog station) and go to purchase history

the code sohuld be there

[cunning crater]

purchase history only has standard edition

not Endwalker

[silver ruin]

hmm

yea id give it a bit then

if you dont get it in 4h~ send a support ticket probably

[cunning crater]

okay

[leaden ginkgo]

saw this in pf. how to get the font and emoji

[wind zephyr]

Is there anything to make the job easier collecting aether current?

[midnight tinsel]

you know you have the aetheryte compass

that you can activate

and it tells you the distance and direction of the next aethryte ?

and you can use it mounted

besides that get a friend who flies you to them

but really

its not that hard if you just collect them while doing msq

[wind zephyr]

Im afraid i might miss one or two during msq and need to do tons of backtracking

Is there plugins or stuff that directly show the uncollected ones on the map?

[midnight tinsel]

its like 5 per map

pre ew

its really not hard

for anti tos third party software you probably go elsewere

[limber hound]

Did they remove that infamous Lochs one

[modest igloo]

ye

theres 1 or two in EW that fucked with me

but otherwise it took me like 30 mins max to get them for each area

i just avoided them during msq, im a story gamer

[rigid bane]

Whats this housing item??

[twin fog]

Question! This is my Grade 2 chocobo. Should I settle for this, even though it has 1 star less than my starter? Which had 2+2? This one has a lot more stats ingeneral

Not sure how good super sprint is

[naive sigil]

Hi, there is a addon/ mod who decrease graphism of the game for play with a bad gpu ?

[oak lily]

go to the system config and lower settings

[oblique yew]

is the free trial back up?

[oak lily]

no

[naive sigil]

I ask that because settings isn't enough

But you know some games have mods can decrease maximum graphism for little config

maybe there is one for FF XIV

[solemn jewel]

uf even lowest settings are too much idk if u can play

[naive sigil]

I know, that why i ask if exist a mod for decrease graphism for low graphic memory

[half ember]

was wondering where i can get some extra storage for materials besides my inventory and chocobo

[leaden ginkgo]

Retainers

[storm sapphire]

is there a preferred class to farm atma with for lower level fates?

[silver ruin]

nope

not that i know of

[fast talon]

blue kappa?

[naive sigil]

ok thnx

[oak quarry]

i’m down to do eureka farming

[fossil bloom]

did we ever get an estimate for when 6.1 will drop?

[sage cape]

guys, is the purple scrip gear worth it?

[silver ruin]

no

[fossil bloom]

hmm okay

[silver ruin]

we haev user estimates but not an official word on it

best guess is late march/early april

[fossil bloom]

fair

[warm snow]

Any estimates are based on previous expansions and Endwalker has been quite different to those already

[storm sapphire]

Thought you had to have the relic weapon equipped to farm, so blue won't work, no?

[barren granite]

is there plugin to color auctionable itmes so i can quickly id them in armor chest ?

[silver ruin]

if it drops from a dungeon and its gear, it aint tradable

theres no plugin that does that off the top of my head

[barren granite]

ok is there an open source plugin 🙂

soo annoying having to go thru my full arm chest :p

[green grail]

there's a toggle in settings for new gear to go to your inventory instead of armory chest, helps a lot

since only stuff you equip ends up in there

[hidden cypress]

whats the closest glam dresser to an aetheryte

[fast talon]

oh rip, musta been thinking of a different relic weap

Prob just whatever class you like most and has decent aoe/self sustain

[solemn jewel]

gridania

[hidden cypress]

thanks

[frank gyro]

hi everyone i am trying to chnage my UI but it all seems a little confusing

[barren granite]

it is

[frank gyro]

i am using a g600 mouse with the 12 buttons and i want to make my Hot bars a visual representation of that as atm i am using the stock bug icons in a row ui and its kind of blaging my head

i cant seem to find a good video that actually explains what to do

they all just seem to be showing off

not actually teaching

[barren granite]

u see reddit thread ?

[frank gyro]

no ill check it out thanks 🙂

[barren granite]

some comments seem helpful to your issue

no vids...but

[frank gyro]

i saw something that a player made where he made something called a collapsing ui so all his emotes and travel and sprint were all hidden and he pressed a button to make them appear then disappear

[barren granite]

im not sure if they dissapear but rather it may swap out the hotbar.

for ex. press button to swap hotbar 5 for hotbar 6

[frank gyro]

yeah probably so

[hidden cypress]

yeah they build it like a menu so when they click a macro there it will unhide/hide some hotbars and copy hotbars from a pre lv 30 class into it

[frank gyro]

that link doesn't work btw

[barren granite]

so ya youd need to first set upo hotbars the way you want, then use a mouse button to cycle over the hotbar

[hidden cypress]

but do you just want a hotbar in a grid or something?

[frank gyro]

to start with yeah i want it to be a grid so it matches my g600

[barren granite]

here is collapsing hotbars

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=2Ws74eekJRQ&feature=emb_title

[hidden cypress]

in hud layout settings, click the hotbar you want to change, click the cog in the HUD Layout box next to current ui element and choose the layout you want from there

[frank gyro]

it feels odd going from bottem to top on my mouse but the hot bars are left to right haha

[regal pawn]

you want 4x3

[livid island]

how to unsync dungeons?

[frank gyro]

lovely thanks al ot

[regal pawn]

top left, cogwheel

then Unrestricted Party

[frank gyro]

thanks 🙂

ill try that now

[livid island]

is it poasible to earn storm seals if i solo as healer while unsync

[hidden cypress]

if you want gc seals just do expert delivery or gc leves probably

[regal pawn]

no

you give up adventurer in need in unsync

[livid island]

._.

[regal pawn]

cause you're not doing roulette

can't unsync roulettes

[livid island]

i cant reliably clear content in roulettes now that i unlocked harder dungeons and my potato pc

telegraphs appear visually after the atk connects

[leaden ginkgo]

how much time is there usually between savage tiers and will the current savage tier be made irrelevant because of catchup mechanics when next tier is out?

[regal pawn]

2 patches

next savage tier is in august-ish

New normal raids and max ilvl increase
X.0
X.2
X.4

New alliance raids and catchup
X.1
X.3
X.5

[leaden ginkgo]

ah so next big patch is alliance raids

is that gonna give gear thats comparable to savage?

[regal pawn]

yup

no

Savage will always be the best gear

alliance armor will be comparable to non-augmented tome armor

[leaden ginkgo]

gotcha

[regal pawn]

it'll be 590 ilvl

[leaden ginkgo]

thansk

[frank gyro]

so i have done something lol getting there but i was wondering is there a way to swap that so 1 is on the bottem and 9 is on the top? so it mimics the mouse?

[hidden cypress]

just set your keybinds like that

[regal pawn]

1, 4, 7, 10, 2, 5, 8, 11, 3, 6, 9, 12
the order of the buttons you want in the keybinds section

i thikn

no wait
I'm dumbo

[frank gyro]

its for a G600 grid button pad

[hidden cypress]

isnt it like
9 10 11 12
5 6 7 8
1 2 3 4

[frank gyro]

so 1 is on the bottom button and 9 is the top

[hidden cypress]

7 8 9
4 5 6
1 2 3

?

[regal pawn]

the one i posted will do this

i assume you want this?

[frank gyro]

yes 🙂

[hidden cypress]

so just put the binds like that left to right top to bottom

[warm snow]

Alliance raid also has a weekly drop you can use to augment tome gear

Which will put it even with savage gear, at least item level wise

[frank gyro]

the binds are already set up its the UI that i want to match up going bottom to top

[warm snow]

So you can reach ilevel cap casually, but you'll still be weaker than savage raider

[hidden cypress]

wym

[regal pawn]

3, 6, 9, 12, 2, 5, 8, 11, 1, 4, 7, 10

gotta change the keybinds for it

but that's the order

from 1 to 12

[frank gyro]

Fuck I'm an idiot lmao I understand what you mean now again fuck sorry hahahaha we would have been going round in circles lmao 🤣

Really sorry bingus haha I feel like an idiot lmao

[twin fog]

Anyone here who breed chocobo?

I could use a tip, based on my first breed

[ebon shoal]

Once my game time is over, does my character locks?

[solemn jewel]

yes

[hidden cypress]

cant even open the game

[ebon shoal]

wha-

[hidden cypress]

gotta pay up

[solemn jewel]

its a sub based game, when u pay again u can log in again

[marsh ledge]

so im honestly not interested in the story. I pretty much skip everything. Im sure the story is good is its on rights but i hasnt gotten my attention like FF7 or FF15. in that regard is it worth me shilling out the money for a story skip or are there important gear or accessories i might miss out om?

[modest igloo]

Nope

[solemn jewel]

just fyi you will need to buy both a story skip and job skip

[hidden cypress]

youll miss a fantasia (worth 7€) and you wont get levels, so youll need to level up

[solemn jewel]

otherwise you'll just have to level via grinding dungeons

Also, you will still need to play thru Endwalker normally

[modest igloo]

I’d be like doing the last chunk of ff7 woth no idea who anyone is

[marsh ledge]

if i would have to play through normally i guess it make more sense for me to do it in endwalker normally as opposed to have to do the rest of stormblood and shadowbringers. at least thats how i see it i could be wrong tho and its just my opinion

[solemn jewel]

oh you're already in stormblood? guess from there its less of a pain to level a job with dungeons.

[modest igloo]

Ye and you can always ng+ later

[marsh ledge]

yes im like 80ish mission away for stormblood tho

i mean shadowbringers

80 away from shadowbringers...

[modest igloo]

At that point if HW hasn’t made you love the game not sure if skipping is gonna save it

That’s when most people get hooked in

[marsh ledge]

im just really here for the coop dungeons/raid like i said im not knocking the story and saying its bad it just hasnt been my cup of tea. and I did HW normally without skipping much

[warm snow]

At this point you're just at shadowbringers and the boost will only skip that. Idk if that's exactly your moneys worth but we can't and won't make that decision for you.

[leaden ginkgo]

Hii, hello everyone, i wanna try the game but where can i find the minimum system requirements for it? cuz my PC is crap, and does it have a switch version? thx ^^

What does reflect quest progession means?

[solemn jewel]

If u wanna see how well it will run download the benchmark @leaden ginkgo

[solemn jewel]

Lets say if u did drg jobquest before u meet Estinien in msq "reflect quest progression" reflects that and will make him mention ur dragoon status

[quaint dagger]

Oh, even if i'm not with the job in the cutscene?

[solemn jewel]

I think so?

[leaden ginkgo]

how can i avoid or hide a guy who follows me

[solemn jewel]

If they're stalking you, report it

[regal pawn]

need to finish A Realm Reborn and Post-ARR

and get to Ishgard

[quaint dagger]

Reach Heavensward expansion and go to the job place

[frank gyro]

I don't have enough skills yet aha

[modest igloo]

oh you will

i use 3 hotbars for my jobs at 90

[frank gyro]

Ohh I know but I'm only level 19 atm ha

[modest igloo]

yeah, but you just messed around with it now, and you'll forget next time you need to do it

like i did lol

[steep egret]

most jobs need 3 hotbars

best to sort it out early imo, so you're not playing around later

[regal pawn]

btw, you can safely yeet leg and ankle graze

they're not that useful, especially the one that Binds
because Bind goes away when the target takes damage

[modest igloo]

head graze is decent tho

[regal pawn]

head grazee is a must in some cases

cause peepo tanks

[modest igloo]

since 3 times an expac they remember interrupt

[steep egret]

interrupts get useful later in the game

stun gets less useful :/

[frank gyro]

Ahh I see so not worth using okay I'll get rid of it :)

So which one should I get rid of?

[regal pawn]

Honestly, both

[modest igloo]

those are really the only 2 skills you dont need at all

[regal pawn]

Neither are useful enough in dungeons and/or raids/trials

Not useful enough to warrant a hotbar spot

[modest igloo]

everything else has a niche use somewhere

[steep egret]

i generally try to put role actions in the same areas on jobs

[frank gyro]

okay doki 🙂

[steep egret]

or at least, same for the same roles

[frank gyro]

i will eventually i ma just going through the story atm 🙂

[steep egret]

most jobs use all their kit, but the stuff under Role in teh actions and traits menu, is shared by multiple classes, and some aren't used much

[fleet salmon]

https://imgur.com/GCqPIs9 can someone help me i cant get back in the sea of clouds place

[steep egret]

there should be a way to get there, look around the aetherite area on the bottom left
likely there is a sign you can click which will teleport you there using an airship

[hidden cypress]

yep airships in ishgard

[steep egret]

and attune the aetherite when u get there

[fleet salmon]

i tried the airship ticketer but it took me to cloud top

[hidden cypress]

if you click the yellow text it will take you to where that leads and vice versa

[frank gyro]

so i am trying to add a crtl hot bar and its shwoing up in the ui menu but when i get out of the menu its not there ven after i have saved

[steep egret]

you're supposed to use the one the game gives you, usually when its gonna take you to a new area, its right in front of you

[fleet salmon]

i did that but there is the little blue dots but they are gated off

[rugged thicket]

try talking to one of the npc

[steep egret]

is the bar name purple, you need to unhide it, right click it

[frank gyro]

okay 🙂 ill try that

tar

[steep egret]

you can't use those from ishgard until later on in the MSQ, they unlock in post HW patches

so they wont be available

[hidden cypress]

oh

[fleet salmon]

ive been stuck for a while

[steep egret]

yeh, i did this recently

[steep egret]

did you look where i said? there should be a place to teleport in cloudtop

a sign to click which will take you there

probably on the big airship there

[fleet salmon]

there is a npc in the beginning of cloud top but he takes me to ishgard

no option for the ok zundu place

[regal pawn]

L'khonebb should be nearby

you talk to her to take you to blue window

[fleet salmon]

oh

tysm

[steep egret]

beat me to it lol, just found it

[rugged thicket]

it appears going towards the gates take you elsewhere

[steep egret]

for old stuff like this BTW, google is your friend
a lot of people haven't done this content in a while

[rugged thicket]

other than near ok zundu

[frank gyro]

is there a way i can have sprint as a macro? so i dont have it taking up a slot?

[modest igloo]

the sprint macro takes up a spot

[steep egret]

well, you have to put the macro in a spot

how are you gonna trigger it

?

[modest igloo]

(this is why we were telling you to make more hotbars)

[rugged thicket]

mind control

[frank gyro]

i have already

[modest igloo]

good!

[frank gyro]

yes

[modest igloo]

should have enough space for it then

[steep egret]

how i go about it, non-combat/non-job stuff, put it on a separate hotbar, which is shared by all jobs

put sprint there, bind it to a key, done

[modest igloo]

but yeah no gettin around needing a spot for sprint. the macro is good for not getting ghosted during combat tho

[steep egret]

i have a sprint macro, which also summons a mount

so i have one button for both

though everytime i press the button it get an error, because it fails to do one or the other each time, its the price i pay 😄

[rugged thicket]

/merror off ?

[steep egret]

that doesn't stop on screen errors

only chat

always appears in cities

[glossy flare]

it does stop on screen errors from not being able to use the action

but the mount not being available in that specific location is a different kind of error

[glossy flare]

for all intents and purposes the action did execute so there was no merror

[steep egret]

it doesnt if mount is being summoned

so i always get one error, depending on where i am

[glossy flare]

are you sure you have a /merror off in there?

[steep egret]

/macroerror off
/macroicon "Mount Roulette"
/action "Mount Roulette"
/action "Sprint"

[glossy flare]

huh, weird

the last one should have been caught afaik

[steep egret]

doesn't matter, i just ignore it

[vast ferry]

question: is scholar an input intensive class

[steep egret]

i do have sprint seprately, but just so i can easily see if its off cooldown

i never remember to use the key

[vast ferry]

like is it high apm

[open coral]

No?

[rugged thicket]

no

[steep egret]

in the open world, if i want sprint and not mount, i just jump while hitting the macro, it stops the mount from triggering, and i get sprint instead

so it works well

[open coral]

It's a caster-type (because healers are all spellcasters), so APM is fairly low.

[vast ferry]

wow blm as that low?

[frank gyro]

Better :)

[modest igloo]

this was for 6.00

[open coral]

BLM has a very static rotation without a lot of procs, so yes.

[glossy flare]

technically no longer a relevant statistic with all the new skills (even if most jobs should fall in the same spots)

[steep egret]

mismatched hotbars, hurts my non-existant OCD 😄

[glossy flare]

but still, with smn for example being completely different one probably shouldn't post that anymore

[vast ferry]

which chart is the up to date one

[frank gyro]

Haha I would like to match them but I don't know how hahahaha

[rugged thicket]

fair nuff

[modest igloo]

the one i posted

[glossy flare]

I assume paragon's numbers are up to date

no idea where it's from tho

[steep egret]

well, 1, make them the same shape
2, you can incrementally move hotbars using the numpad, one pixel at a time, so lining up hotbars is doable, using the mouse it can be hard

[rugged thicket]

https://teddit.net/r/ffxiv/comments/rnxz1y/60_average_number_of_cast_per_minute_by_job/

from 89ex

[modest igloo]

first google site lmao

yeah there

[glossy flare]

ah yeah that's a better representation

[frank gyro]

Ahh I see :) I'll try that now lol

[rugged thicket]

ima color this though because kinda hard to read

[vast ferry]

anyone know of any pink scholar books that are level 50 or lower

[steep egret]

meh hotbars
middle is class/job specific stuff
left is an extra bar ive not used for anything yet (thinking some job specific macros)
right is generic shared stiff for all jobs

[vast ferry]

since you can't dye most weapons

[steep egret]

oh and that plus sign is a job menu

[spice cave]

How’re the servers these days? I’ve finally got the money and free time to play again so I figured I better get around to finishing HW

[modest igloo]

good

[modest igloo]

servers were always fine, its just that the que was bad

now its like gone lol

[spice cave]

Awesome thanks

[steep egret]

well, sometimes servers were bad, there were some server crashes
but yea, queues were the main issue

[modest igloo]

really? i hadn't seen too many

well save EU but thats been par for the course since 2020 lol

[steep egret]

yeah, some servers more than others, likely mostly US servers, since they got hit the hardest
we had a couple on JP servers, one on mine where i saw the whole server go down, everyone got disconnected at once, but it was very few and far between

[worn flume]

it was mainly tonberry and elemental experiencing server crashes iirc

[leaden ginkgo]

for farming exp in HoH, is floor 21-30 optimal? also why I can't access floor 30+ ? already did the blue quest

[wispy totem]

quick question about Zadnor/Bozjan. What's the combo for cheesing fates? Isn't there a slash cheese?

I think you need a premade party to do 30+ in hoh

[pallid hearth]

Okay so I've heard currently RPR is the best melee DPS so I've been thinking then what about other melee DPS jobs? Won't people pick RPR in terms of dealing most damage? Other than playstyle of course

[modest igloo]

nah

all 5 are top dps rn basically

like, within 100 rdps from eachother

[boreal storm]

If you suck at reaper then like...

[modest igloo]

just play what looks cool tbh

[pallid hearth]

I'm leveling and playing all of them, just wondering if a job has any distinct difference than others

Like SAM doesn't have any party buffs

[modest igloo]

i mean, all of them play different

but 6.08 put them all in the same area dps-wise

[open coral]

SAM, BLM, and MCH are "selfish" dps.

[vast ferry]

can i make a mcro to open the crafting log

[open coral]

They bring lots of damage and little to no raid utility.

[pallid hearth]

If all melee DPS are the same then "not-selfish" DPS is more preferable in a team?

[open coral]

No

Because having someone who can just pump damage can be beneficial too.

[pallid hearth]

I see, in the end the damage is pretty much the same?

[leaden ginkgo]

Do savage books have a weekly limit?

[open coral]

Yes and no. Quantitatively, no. A "selfish" dps class will do more straight damage on their own than another job. Qualitatively, yes. Dps classes not classified as "selfish" bring buffs/debuffs that increase the party's damage, making up for the loss of personal damage.

[worn flume]

yes, you get 1 per week for clearing the fight

[leaden ginkgo]

ty

[pallid hearth]

I see, that makes sense.. My friends used to make fun of SAM because of its selfish nature but I'm relieved to know that it pans out nicely

[modest igloo]

dps is pretty much king in FFXIV anyways

[leaden ginkgo]

earliest level to get exp for WT?

[boreal storm]

Any? It’s half a level regardless

[solemn jewel]

Just a waste turning it on on a very low lvl job

[gloomy mortar]

Is there an ideal meld for the Level 90 fishing pole? I see only BOT & MIN info

[vast ferry]

are there any dyable scholar books?

[gloomy mortar]

If you do the some of the challenge log and most of the hunting log for your new level 1 job, with the Exp earring, you will likely go up to level 10. So level 10 would be my suggestion about @leaden ginkgo

[vast ferry]

to bad exp earings are exclusive to preorder

[regal pawn]

Don't

WT at that low level is a huge waste

WT has exponentially more value the higher level you use it at

using it at those low levels is a huge waste because getting half a level takes you like 5 mins

[gloomy mortar]

Level 10💡

[regal pawn]

yeah
lvl 10 is a waste

[gloomy mortar]

Do it at level 10

[tender sail]

if you get kicked from a party does it say "you leave x's party"?

[regal pawn]

it'll say you were dismissed iirc

[tender sail]

im confused to as whether I got kicked or accidentally left lol

[regal pawn]

I personally used it at 55+, it's when palace of the dead xp stopped being amazing
Before that it's a waste imo

The higher your level, the more worth you get out of it
So ideally you use it on the highest job you have that you want to level

[tender sail]

I watched a clip and Im pretty sure I got kicked

[vast ferry]

uuuh why does it say i'm affiliated with another grand company

i'm at the imortal flames

[regal pawn]

P > Profile
What does it say for your grand company?

no wait

C

not p

[faint flare]

Free companies can be paired with any grand company

[vast ferry]

yep says immortal flames

[regal pawn]

And are you talking to the Flames officer?

and not the OIC one?

[vast ferry]

oh i was talking to the oic one

[regal pawn]

oic is for free companies

[silver ruin]

says you were removed i believe

[vast ferry]

lol my free company is dead

i just haven't bothered changing

theres 4 members the most recent one is 15 days the other two are 157 and 166 days

[gloomy mortar]

@leaden ginkgo Level 10 unlocks guild heist roulette; a few of those with the challenge log will unlock leveling roulette at 16.

[tender sail]

it only said "you left x's party" for me

[silver ruin]

huh

[tender sail]

and I was looking at my phone the entire time so

[silver ruin]

well when you remove someone it says x has been removed from teh party

ig its different if you're the one being removed

[strange coral]

Maybe you afk'd out. I don't remember the time, but I'm told it will remove you if you're not doing anything.

[tender sail]

nah I joined a clear party for p2s that wanted 0-1 chests but I suppose there were too many ppl who cleared so they really wanted that 1 chest

i just wanted to confirm the getting kicked mssg for future reference

[cinder crag]

is there a way to have instances be unselected after completing them?

super annoying accidentally queuing up for something i didnt want to

[tender sail]

clear selection

[cinder crag]

i mean automatically

[boreal storm]

No

Because some people want to do things multiple times, and that’d get annoying

[steep egret]

learn to check the list at the bottom of the screen before clicking join, is the best answer you'll get

trying to queue for 5 things i need to do, the finishing one, and having all 5 unticked, kinda sucks, so id rather it not do that 🙂

[tender sail]

could be a toggle off/on option

[gloomy mortar]

@tender sail were you in a dungeon?

[tender sail]

but as is ya just gotta keep an eye out for 2/5

no, i was in partyfinder

oh maybe the mssg is different

for that

youre right

@tender sail you might have auto left the party if you tried to change worlds, if it wasn’t a cross world party

[wheat plume]

in O8N, evertytime and aoe has "????" must I always stay in them?

[strange coral]

Generally, yes. That boss's shtick is that he tries to trick you.

[wheat plume]

That "Generally" is because is there any situation where I shouldn't?

[strange coral]

More because I've only ever done that fight twice and I'm not totally sure

But I do remember having to stand in the ??? aoes

[boreal storm]

??? Means do the opposite of what you’d normally do for said attack

[wheat plume]

and when he does the Ice attack, how do I know if I should be inside or outside?

[boreal storm]

The question marks

No mark = do as normal
Marks = opposite

[wheat plume]

yeah, i got that, I was asking more how to know if circular or donut aoe is gonna appear, is the time enought to get outta them (or inside if "???") ?

[strange coral]

The donut appears during the cast. It gives plenty of time.

[wheat plume]

thxs, it seemed to me the aoe showed just before the ice

[strange coral]

Or rather the aoe appears. For blizzard it can be either donut or normal circle, but either way it will show up either with or without ???. (I'm just rewatching a video to remind myself)

[wheat plume]

thxs

[warm snow]

? Means its the opposite of the telegraph

So multiple fire markers mean stack with ?

Thunder safespot becomes the lines

Etc etc

? Also has a different sound

[wheat plume]

yeah, I got that, thxs, I was asking more about if the telegraph appeared long enough before the ice to be able to move, cause I seemed to me than the telegraph appeared only for less than 1 sec before the ice appearing

[warm snow]

Telegraph snapshots are same as normal for the timing

[boreal storm]

Also like look at cast bars

[vast ferry]

is there a way to test a ressurection macro without bugging another player for help

[true wren]

If I'm capped for teh week, will I still get the 50?

[regal pawn]

no

Astro tomes from WT are a bad pick due to how easy they're to get

and they don't go over cap so also bad

[vast ferry]

i'm trying to set it up so that it says who i'm resurrecting

/ac "Resurrection"
/p Resurrecting <t>.```
 is this correct

[strange coral]

It should if you are a SMN or SCH

[vast ferry]

yeah that's what i'm using it for

[open coral]

Yes. That will print the name of the person you're using the spell on

[leaden ginkgo]

[boreal storm]

Yeah?

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks king

[sonic ginkgo]

Is there a dedicated discord for finding PotD, HoH, Dalriada etc groups?

[steep egret]

doubt it, better finding your datacenters discord

if there is one

or just use party finder, or matchmaking

[vast ferry]

should i put the name before or after in the macro

i assume it won't send the message until after the spell is cast

[mellow pike]

for grand company supply and provision missions, how many of each thing can i turn in?

and can i use it even if i havne't done any of my crafting or gathering jobs?

[faint flare]

one per crafter/gatherer you have unlocked

[jovial quarry]

Per day ^

[strange coral]

No, it will send the message at the same time the cast starts. If you want to test this privately. Replace the spell with a long cast spell and use it on a target dummy or your chocobo. And replace /p with /e. That will ouput the message to your chat log.

[warm snow]

Reset is 8pm st

[boreal storm]

!faq savageloot

[zinc orbit]

What floor drops what?

In a 1-chest clear, the chest received is random

First Floor:
Chest A: 2x Accessory Coffer
Chest B: Accessory Coffer

Second Floor:
Chest A: Head/Hand/Feet Coffer + Weapon Tomestone + Accessory upgrade material
Chest B: Head/Hand/Feet Coffer

Third Floor:
Chest A: Leg Coffer + Left-side upgrade material + Weapon upgrade material
Chest B: Head/Hand/Feet Coffer

Fourth Floor:
Chest A: Weapon Coffer + Mount
Chest B: Random Weapon + Chestpiece Coffer

[faint flare]

!faq savageweekly

[zinc orbit]

How does weekly-locked loot work in Savage?

Chests: The number of chests that drop depends on the number of people who have not yet cleared that week. 2 chests for 8 people needing a weekly clear and 1 chest for at least 4 people needing a weekly clear.

Loot Rules: Every week, your first clear of every floor rewards you with a book (for gear exchange) and the chance to roll on loot from any chests. This is your only chance that week to win any loot.

**Skipping Floors:**Entering a floor without completing previous floors marks you as having completed them, giving up both your book and chance to roll on loot that week.

[hidden cypress]

just so you know, its not about your jobs level but level in the MSQ

[faint flare]

These are the rules

You had 5 people who cleared already this week

Therefore no chests spawned

You're locked out now

[glossy basalt]

Ah, okay. So literally no point in doing it again. That's disappointing.

[boreal storm]

Practice

[faint flare]

Parsing

[glossy basalt]

One book a week too, I assume?

[faint flare]

Yes

[desert saddle]

oh right, so basically keep doing msq till I unlock

[signal palm]

So nobody has this audio issue? is it just my game? or is that vibrating bass noise supposed to happen after every cast?

[desert saddle]

its a chocobo, right?

[hidden cypress]

yes and you dont unlock it through msq, you unlock the quest to get the mount through MSQ

[desert saddle]

yea thats what I meant, sorry

[hidden cypress]

when you complete "A hero in the making", get "My little chocobo" in your GC

[desert saddle]

i've just finished the one to travel to the other cities

[faint flare]

I hear absolutely nothing wrong with the skills, that's how they sound

[desert saddle]

and now i'm heading back to the limsa

[hidden cypress]

there was some sound i could hear in the first clip when i turn my headphones all the way up, i dont have it when i do casts either

i dont know how to fix though

[faint flare]

I only hear the skills, the feet and the effect ending sound /shrug

[hidden cypress]

it sounds like a slight breeze or something

[faint flare]

That's effects ending

[boreal storm]

I legit can’t tell what the issue is

[signal palm]

yes yes! thank you... that is not normal right?

[faint flare]

When effects fall off there's a small breeze sound

That's normal

[signal palm]

Its ringing and vibrating my ears

[gaunt fable]

are hard dungeons only an ARR thing?

[hidden cypress]

ik what youre talking about but thats not it

[faint flare]

No the last was stormblood with fractual Hard

[gaunt fable]

ty

[signal palm]

Basically trying to figure out if its normal or not, I completely reinstalled my game I'm not sure what else to do.

[hidden cypress]

i have it too, just never noticed because its so quiet

[signal palm]

oh okay so it is normal then

ya once you pick it up, at least for me its driving me nuts :/

feels like someone putting cups over my ears or something

[hidden cypress]

its so quiet though if i just play with normal volume, how you hear this

i literally cannot hear it

[signal palm]

idk my headphones are pretty good; but Ill figure something out I guess. I normally have spell effects pretty quiet

I have DT 990 pros

[heavy wadi]

i think you have waaay too much bass boosting if you can even hear that

[signal palm]

Ya I could try to add an EQ to the game, but 990s are known for being light bass

maybe the immerse spatial audio will help? you gotta pay for it though right?

[tight spoke]

Very sad. Ty

[leaden ginkgo]

if i will buy this i will can to play even after lvl 60 or only to lvl 60?

[faint flare]

You're level locked to 60

Until you buy endwalker

[crisp pelican]

Starter edition Is only till lvl 60

[leaden ginkgo]

ok thx

hi! i'm trying to recruit two friends with the recruit a friend code thing, but im not sure how they're supposed to use the code lol

[crisp pelican]

Since it's basically the free trial without any restrictions so if u wanna go further then that u either want to also get Endwalker or Just right up front buy Complete

[vast ferry]

so i bought stormblood for nothing

[faint flare]

You physically can't buy stormblood from legit sellers

[vast ferry]

might've been shadowbringers

[crisp pelican]

Then it was when ShB was still current

[vast ferry]

i just know i bought some expanion when endwalker was still in the preorder stage

[crisp pelican]

So at that time it was not

[mellow pike]

do the subscriptions every go on sale?

[vast ferry]

so basically i spent money for nothing?

[strange coral]

No

[strange coral]

Depends. Buying Endwalker during its preorder wouldn't have given you the other expansions right away. Those were unlocked around EW's release.

[vast ferry]

i'm confused do they make previous expansions free?

[mellow pike]

Whats the easiest way to buy subs on PC, non steam? with crysta, or buy it one its own? I think I saw there are monthly and bundles?

[strange coral]

They include the previous expansions in the latest

[gaunt fable]

you can play til lvl 80 and see if it's worth buying endwalker

[vast ferry]

so i have to spend the full cost?

[strange coral]

What do you have currently?

[vast ferry]

lemme double check i think it's up to shb

yep i'm up to shb

[strange coral]

Then yea, you'll have to pay for Endwalker if you want to be caught up.

[vast ferry]

how much does it cost

[strange coral]

$40 for US

[modest igloo]

40 usd

[vast ferry]

i'm not spending 40 bucks on an expanion

that's rediculous making me pay the full cost of the game for a fraction of it

[modest igloo]

go play another game then idk

[vast ferry]

from what i understand it costs 40 dollars to buy everything right?

[modest igloo]

complete is 60 total

[strange coral]

$60 for everything if you have nothing

[modest igloo]

which is just standard plus ew

[strange coral]

$20 for starter edition, $40 for latest expansions

[mellow pike]

Can you still get the 2b outfit?

[strange coral]

Yes

[modest igloo]

yep

permanent content

[mellow pike]

but not the ffxv stuff, correct?

[modest igloo]

correct

[vast ferry]

that's rediculous that's basically saying you have to pay for the expanions you already bought

[strange coral]

The XV stuff will either return if SE brings back the event, or it will go up on the cash shop.

[modest igloo]

thats how wow does their stuff, blame them

[strange coral]

$40 is for the newest expansion, which comes out every 2 years. The old expansions are included in that for free so that the price doesn't get to be like $200 to get everything.

[modest igloo]

destiny 2 had that issue

[vast ferry]

that's still rediculous i shouldn't have to pay for stuff i already bought

[modest igloo]

but players who buy the stuff new were paying for subs years ago

ew comes with the expacs for free

just as sb and shb did

[vast ferry]

which i already bought i should get a discount

[boreal storm]

You only have to buy a new expansion every 2 years

It’s not that big a price

[modest igloo]

ew is a triple a game, thats how its priced

[vast ferry]

it's 10 levels it can't take that long to complete

[pure copper]

basic DRG question, but is it worth refrehsing your 123 dot even if it means you gotta refresh your 10% buff super early

[modest igloo]

msq alone took me 40 hours

[boreal storm]

Anyway this isn’t the channel to complain about it

[modest igloo]

and thats not touching the rest of the content

[limber hound]

If you have a problem with SE's pricing, take it up with them

simple as that

[modest igloo]

ye

[heavy wadi]

The expac hasn't even really started yet. We have two years worth of content to go still.

[faint flare]

We literally all do it

[heavy wadi]

Paying $40 every 2 years isn't far fetched.

[faint flare]

40

[boreal storm]

40

[modest igloo]

jsut wondering, but what does ff7R cost nowadays?

70$?

[faint flare]

Always keep the dot up, you alternate combos post 58

[vast ferry]

how many hours of content does ew have

[boreal storm]

It’s not done yet

[pure copper]

and due to how dots tick every 3s, refresh with your 123 starting around 7s?

[modest igloo]

about 60, more if you raid

[craggy tinsel]

plenty if you also include leveling jobs from 80 to 90

[modest igloo]

and thats not adding in the basically animal crossing stuff they're adding later

[heavy wadi]

Again, the expac hasn't even started really

[craggy tinsel]

^

[strange coral]

Each expansion is it's own game's worth of content, even before patches

[craggy tinsel]

we're still expecting many major patches to come within the next year or two

[vast ferry]

isn't that about the length of the older ff games

[craggy tinsel]

which will add plenty more

[heavy wadi]

this is how pretty much every mmo on the market works

[craggy tinsel]

and that's one expansion

[boreal storm]

We don’t even know what trial series we’re getting

[vast ferry]

if i'm getting a full length game then it's worth the money

[craggy tinsel]

I think just about anyone you ask will say this game is worth it

[boreal storm]

You got 5 full length games

[faint flare]

Each expansion is its own game in length basically

[gaunt fable]

you probably are but you have to pay the subscription too

[faint flare]

More when the side stuff is added

[crisp pelican]

Plus we get even more content for EW in tue future the expansion just started kekw

[vast ferry]

well only 1 since i already have the other expansions

[craggy tinsel]

we're counting the full game not just Endwalker in a vacuum

[vast ferry]

i'm only counting ew in cost consideration since that's all i'm getting

[ember magnet]

how do i grind for glamour gear, i looked at the unrestricted party setting in duty finder but it says I can't get items?

[boreal storm]

Open chests

[ember magnet]

so i still can get items?

[limber hound]

eeyup

[modest igloo]

yes

it jsut makes it so you dont get exp and such

[ember magnet]

ok

[faint flare]

Unsync stops item drops directly from mobs

Chests still give items

[limber hound]

Come back when the final expac for FF14 releases, you'll get everything before it

[craggy tinsel]

oh I actually didn't know this, TIL

[limber hound]

It's just what you wanted

[vast ferry]

won't the game be dead then

[boreal storm]

Pfft

[limber hound]

But think of the VALUE MADNESS

[vast ferry]

when mmos stop updating they die

[olive harbor]

how to equip clown nose

[boreal storm]

It’s attached to the hat

[limber hound]

You're the one thinking about how much they get out of their money

[limber hound]

I'm providing a solution

[faint flare]

/Visor

[modest igloo]

so you saw how much the game grew during the 6 months between 5.58 and 6.0 right

[olive harbor]

thank youuuu

yesss

[leaden ginkgo]

umm can someone get in trouble for someone doing rmts and sending it to them

[boreal storm]

RMT illegal so

[leaden ginkgo]

sorry let me rephrase

[vast ferry]

that doesn't dismiss my claim at all

[leaden ginkgo]

if you received a trade from someone who did rmts and you didnt know about it

[vast ferry]

i'm including expansion in updates since they're just paid updates

[leaden ginkgo]

god idk how to word this. someone bought gil and then gave me gil and i dont wanna get in trouble for it so what do

[boreal storm]

But did you actually participate in rmt?

[modest igloo]

report them for rmt

[leaden ginkgo]

idk i guess i did if i accepted the trade

i didnt KNOW at the time

[boreal storm]

No you didn’t

[leaden ginkgo]

and then he blatantly said after i asked "i bought gil"

so i was like ?!?!?!

[modest igloo]

if you send a report saying as much they'll prolly just remove the gil at worst

they might even let you keep it

[limber hound]

As I said, squenix's decision, squenix is the one you want to complain to

[heavy wadi]

just make sure you have enough gil on you when you send the report

[limber hound]

not here

[heavy wadi]

#rants is over there, you aren't going to gain anything by arguing about pretty reasonable pricing with anyone here. this isn't an official ffxiv discord nor can anyone here do anything about it.

[nova umbra]

is 6.1 the patch where the housing lottery will be added?

[twilit arch]

yes

[upper hearth]

Does MSQ and Alliance roulette give more or less exp than a dungeon?

[strange coral]

The conversation already moved to #rants

[signal palm]

ill fix thanks

[strange coral]

If getting the daily bonus, then more

Otherwise it depends on your level and the level of the content

[upper hearth]

What about xp per hour

Sometimes it seems like Alliance takes way longer

[strange coral]

Highest level leveling dungeon will give you the most exp for your time after you've done your dailies

[glossy flare]

it's about equal in terms of time spent and xp gained

between those 2 roulettes

maybe msq roulette is slightly better

[cursive ridge]

Most alliance roulettes are crystal tower and those are like 20 minutes

[untold willow]

what would be a good lvl/class to try to run the extremes of arr unsynced solo?

[upper hearth]

I prefer NIN

[rigid dust]

its been a hot minute, how do i get to the lower half of Peaks?

[upper hearth]

Feels the fastest

[quasi cairn]

i solo'ed them with reaper level 70, pretty easy

[boreal storm]

Msq

[rigid dust]

yeah, level 70 or hire and you can solo them on almost any job

[upper hearth]

From the fringes

[rigid dust]

i've finished MSQ, i just forgot how to get down there lol. going back for the aether currents

[untold willow]

ah ok ty

[rigid dust]

ohhhh

[glossy flare]

at lvl 70 pretty much any job can do it tbh

[faint flare]

Just teleport

[boreal storm]

Just warp there

You did attune right?

[modest igloo]

any melee is a decent choice

[faint flare]

Hold shift to have aetherytes be pritotise over quests

[modest igloo]

i prefer MCH since its burst is basically instant

[rigid dust]

yeah! i can get there, i'm just curious how you get there without aether. sorry for the confusion

from Fringes someone said?

[upper hearth]

Yes

[boreal storm]

You can see the zone transitions on the map

[viscid moth]

Isn't parsing kind of a joke because you can just pay a dancer and astro to look good? xd

[narrow jay]

No.

[faint flare]

That's why there's different dps types

!faq fflogsdps

[zinc orbit]

What is the difference between nDPS, rDPS, pDPS and aDPS on FFLogs?

• neutral DPS (nDPS) is: Your TotalDPS minus the damage from buffs you received
• RaidDPS (rDPS) is: Your TotalDPS minus the damage from buffs you received plus the damage from buffs you contributed
• Personal DPS (pDPS) is: Your TotalDPS without being adjusted for buffs.
• adjusted DPS (aDPS) is: Your TotalDPS minus single target buffs applied to you (devilment, dragon sight, astro cards, etc)

[narrow jay]

Dancer ain't gonna save you from being bad at your rotation.

[faint flare]

Rdps removes damage gained from buffs like dancer and Astro give you

And credits them to their respective jobs

[viscid moth]

I know, but the parsing%ile you get is just pDPS iirc?

[faint flare]

No

[narrow jay]

No, there's a percentile for each.

[viscid moth]

Then I'm too stupid too see it :x

[narrow jay]

And I promise you, a person who's actually good at their job will still outperform a person who isn't.

[faint flare]

Most look at rdps percent

[viscid moth]

ye I know, I just want to look how I'm doing and how I can improve.

[narrow jay]

xivanalysis

[faint flare]

(unless you're a reaper which isn't fully supported/finished yet)

[narrow jay]

Percentiles will only tell you where you are in relation to the rest of the people uploading for your class. And all FFlogs does is collate the aggregate data from ACT and present it in a readable chart format for easy filtering.

[heavy wadi]

reaper.... still not officially supported 3 months after expac release

[narrow jay]

Xivanalysis takes that data and breaks down what you did compared to what you should be doing.

It can also show you when you're doing things like drifting your burst away from the raid burst window.

[pure copper]

any way theyd fix the 1s drift on GNB rotations?

or am i doing something wrong

[dry bobcat]

Whats the best way to level from 38-50

Apart from spamming dungs

[remote lintel]

!faq altlvlguide

[zinc orbit]

Leveling Guide for alt jobs

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/wiki/leveling

[dry bobcat]

Yeah aside from spamming highest lvl dungeons

[remote lintel]

potd

[dry bobcat]

I got my 2 saveslots full

:C

Hunting log gives barely any exp anymore

[remote lintel]

because hunting log is for below 15

[narrow jay]

I don't fully understand this question.
