Are there nodes that have 100% chance to have Dark Matter Cluster or is it random?
Random. the clusters are a hidden option on the unspoiled nodes.
!faq unsync
In your duty finder window select the ⚙️ icon on the top left to open up the duty finder settings window.
Inside that window select the setting undersized party before confirming and entering the instances of your choice. NOTE: UNSYNC-ING AN INSTANCE WILL FORFEIT ALL OF YOUR EXP AND COMPLETION REWARDS. Poetics from a first time completion bonus and loots chests remain the same and will not be lost. You may not queue for daily roulettes using this method.
ok got it thank you
so is the grass looking like well not so fun on the eyes when moving normal? (specifically the grass)
Hey isn't there a website that tells me what I can spend these excess currencies on to make some gil?
do retainers ever get to sell more than 20 items at a time?
no, thats their cap
... Speaking of retainers, doesn't spamming Quick Venture still get them to cap no problem?
yes, quick ventures are a good way to level them assuming you're willing to send them out hourly
There in lies the problem, since I'm a RP'er.
Dumb jokes aside, I realy should go start that...
can you have more than 1 character in a world?
yes if you have the standard sub
Is there a set amount of time to stand still for Accursed Hoards to appear?
Do I stand still anywhere on the floor? Or do I need to be within a certain range?
within a range
Can I queue up with Trusts for a dungeon through Duty Finder or do I have to actually walk myself to the dungeon entrance?

is it just me or is WHM lily gauge needlessly confusing? i've tried all jobs and this is the only one that i'm thinking of switching to simple mode, do you guys think the same?
confusing
Not at all
I have all on simple so they take up less space
the half-open lillies look like open lillies at a glance to me
then just use the simple mode if you're not used to it
a grown lily looks .. distinct
Also the 30s timer until your next bloom is noticeable, since it’s on the stem
either unfamiliarity doing its work or … it’s more a you problem than a .. lily gauge problem
!sprout
!faq sprout
The
or 'sprout' indicates that you are a new adventurer in the game and is only automatically removed when you have met the following criteria: 300 hours of playtime and completed the main scenario quest Death Unto Dawn.
The icon can also be manually removed by typing /nastatus off into your chat. This isn't typically recommended as it helps other players gauge your progress into the game.
is there a specific quest that gives you the free fantaisa when you finish arr
I finished arr but I never got mine
the ultimate weapon
isnt that msq tho
yes?
mm weird
I mean like im on endwalker
so im sure ive done that
but i never got the fantaisa, which is weird
did you buy a skip
no
then did you use it?
did you never check your inventory or put it on a retainer or something
true i could have lost it lol
other than chocobo saddle, retainer, or inventory
it couldnt be anywhere else right?
fc chest
you cannot put fantasias in an fc chest.
oh right
is there a way to repair more than 1 piece at a time, but not all?
Unequip what you don’t want repaired, repair all
but what if one is the weapon
swap classes to a job that shares gear
or
swap classes, then go through the Mender menu repairing things by gear slot and skip the main and off hand weapons

Can free trial players play the game now?
I heard you can play when server is not congested but not sure for creating new trial account
free trial isnt open for new players still, but if you were on it before EW you can play
Double checking, it's roughly 1/3 of a level per 24 hours for rested exp generation, right?
is there a way to switch your race and character apprance?
fantasia
wait for AST collective unconscious, how do u take advantage of the 10% DR that ends upon action?
a single tick of application works
in trash pack pulls you stand on top of the tank, use it, and move immediately, applies the regen + tick
so once i see the regen buff, just move?
hm ok
you don't need to hold still for the DR, better to keep gcd rolling
in other things like boss phase transitions or stacks marker/aoe you can maybe hold it a little longer to get most people in
while I'm here how does one make a holmgang macro? does one part spam target self with /target <1> then /ac holmgang?

Isn't holmgang self targeting anyway?
It leashes to your target
So the jank is that it the target dies before your duration ends
The invuln is gone as well
Hmm
!action holmgang
/ac Holmgang <1>
Should work
That kinda works as well
Its just more clean cut to have both on the same line
And spam it
yeah im still new to macros
The same basis is used for shirk macros as well
Just have it target <2> instead
that would simply be convenience right
and not slower than manually targetting + shirking
Ye
When should I place materia on my items?
Do I need to max spiritbond to a relic weapon before tossing it in a dresser?
Makes sense, thanks
not really worth using materia until max level
any content that syncs you down removes materia bonuses anyway
makes them pretty shitty when leveling
1 is fine
Or <me> works
mmm
!faq warmacro
what else should I macro that would be convenient

this usually
You don’t need a line in chat
I do like the one party line though
That's not public info
Cant u just take the api and sort by character gender
Same everywhere
Character gender has no bearing on player gender
Also frankly a creepy question.
Same everywhere
Thats probably cap
It's not public info and frankly you're looking creepy asking it
If you really care that hard find it out yourself
How is creepy trying to find out the ratio of male characters to female characters are on a data center
Yall aint no help
https://www.famitsu.com/news/201707/20137981.html?page=2
Looks like it was already disclosed publicly by yoshi p as 7:3 male to female
How is this channel called help if you provide incorrect information and assumptions
👎

maybe also check from when the article is...... as if anything from 2017 has any use in 2022
That's not even the info you asked for
yo by any chance is anyone here in the sephirot server in OCE and willing to assist me and my buddy in palace of the dead?
potd is data center wide
so you can ask from anyone from your DC
so as party finder and duty finder, it's not server restricted
only marriage + fc are server restricted
ah i see
assist like climbing 1-50?
nah 71-80 actually
need 5 more levels on my armor
to be able to get the weapon outside of battle
then you will need to find a specific people who have saved at 71-80 floor
or they won't be able to help you
yeah exactly lol where do i start
should i just kinda make a party finder thingy?
you could make a 51-100 floor party finder
and just keep repeating it till you reach 99/99 aetherpool
cause that's what people usually interested at
im very new to this but yeah ill try to figure it out
so like since im at 71+, if someone in a party cues up to say, 81+, can i join them or no?
you'll find a very few people have the same exact floor 71-80, but all people will eventually have the 51 savepoint
you need to find the 71-80
can't join 81-90
youd have to reset progress
yeah, use your 2nd savegame to start from the 51th floor checkpoint again
you can either reset your 71-80 progress, or just let it be
and that gets rid of my aether weapon and armour?
no just your current floor
hm ok
aether weapon/armor is permanent till you traded it off for shiny weapons
i see
wait so i want to reset my floor 71, and then i will have the option to start from 51?
yeah, that's the checkpoint, make sure you do the bluequest beforehand
that's how people who love potd level their jobs
do 51-60 -> reset progress -> repeat
i see i see
It's tedious, but it's consistent
isnt the whole thing tho if u enter lower floors than u will get less chances to upgrade ur aether?
but as your aetherpool gear grow higher, the silver chest from floor 51-60 won't increase your aethergear, that's why people sometimes make the party from 51-100
I reckon if your aetherpool is like 70/70+, the chests from 51-60 will stop giving you stats
yep
ah ok my sword is 45 and armour 25, so i should be fine right?
more than enough to climb to floor 100, yeah
if you want to attempt floor 200, get 4 people that have aetherpool 99/99 if you want higher chance of success
or go for the solo
yeah, just make a /partyfinder, the description is like "floor 51-100"
something like that
mhm
hey since endwalker is out now, anyone knows what ost this is from https://youtu.be/WCVcgZ8dtD0?t=1056

I think i might be going crazy here but my blizzard 3 not activating my umbral ice sometimes? 
sounds like you're going crazy
i tested it again on dummy. fire1 not extending astral fire, blizzard 3 not swapping to umbral ice for me
maybe its ping
oh nvm im 0 iq. The dummy is 10 level above me and it dodged my spell

how hard is orbonne monastery? I've done it a couple times in the past but its been a while
It's not.
It has some complexities, but they're not difficult to figure out, and there are guides for each of them if stuff is eluding you.
It only gets hard when people eat paint.
does a different squadron member have to be a rogue or can he get the exp buff since he's already a rogue?
So, I've learned that I shouldn't be plunge pulling bosses as tank, is it fine to plunge pull trash packs?
mogstation or the online store?
If I have my chocobo dyed in dalamud red, but I want to change the color... do I have to feed him a lemon, wait six hours for it to be yellow again, then start the sequence of fruits for it to change color again, or can i use the lemon and then give it the fruits in the same six hour frame?
it is likely actually just maintenance (as in fixing things or making things run better) as the store is not undergoing maintenance and mogstation for me is not undergoing maintenance
use the calculator, using dalamud red as base colour
Where can i buy Glamour Prisms for gil except marketboard? I know u can get them at GC too. 🤔
you cant with gil
The only ways is with wolf marks, grand company seals, or bicolor gems if you don't want to go into the marketboard
Okidoki THX 😁👍❤️
did you have to wait the 6 hours ?
nice
when you go back to talk with chocobo it suddenly changes plumage
Is it me or drk feels bad on low levels?
Whats the difference between Need and Greed?
You can only roll Need if you can equip the item.
The system resolves all Need rolls with priority. If no one rolls Need, it resolves all Greed rolls.
I literally just got DRK because i wanted to main, im still playing it but damn, i die so easily
I was doing a Level 32 dungeon and died twice
by yourself or with other people
can pull 2 groups at a time
Other people
pull slower is better than wiping
mmm
Remember that Arm's Length is also a defensive cooldown
Enemies who hit you during it are Slowed, meaning they attack you slower, meaning you take less damage.
Yep
but yeah, other than that, your kit at 32 is literally only Rampart, AL, and Reprisal, so if you're using those judiciously, then ... someone else didn't have your back.
i do use them over the course of fighting mobs. But i still feel like my health is never over 50%
It was different with Warrior
Paradox should only be used before blizzard IV, right?
It shouldn't be much different, your base stats are effectively the same.
Also small question about Darkside, is the number a timer or is it showing how my dps boost is wearing off?
Timer until your boost wears off
Aight cool ty

Heard many bad things about drk which is kinda sad
Paradox inside Astral Fire gives you a guaranteed Fire 3 proc and refreshes AF, so you should be using it as your filler between your Fire 4 sets. You can also use it at any point during UI as another free movement spell.
Disregard them. People are whiny.
ty
correction to my last: It's still only a 40% Firestarter proc chance, not guaranteed; but that means you can Sharpcast it.
It's still your Fire 1 replacement in that phase.
im doing the first dungeon, sas, and im getting no luck with matchup, anyone able to help?
I keep forgetting but PotD up to 60 then HoH from 61-70, correct?
if youre dps yes
potd = equal q times regardless of class
healer/tank gets better queue for dungeons which makes it better
yes potd/hoh is only good for when you have que`s of 20m+
Bard music player
Oh I see, guess I'll just go regular queues then ty
Oh, I have absolutely no idea about that, lol
just spam highest level dungeon you have that isnt lv 50/60/70/80
they give bad xp
BMP is Bard Music Player pluggy. messing w/ now and is decent plus editor
wow bit of a lag between key press and notes. Mouse is fine but kb is harsh
qqwqw
oop
just did my 80 reaper quest after finishing 5.0 MSQ...if im understanding enshroud right, you effectively get 5 stacks of gibbet/gallows/guillotine while in enshroud? same potencies, albeit without the positional requirement
Correct
huh neat
Is there a timer for Ishgard Fetes?
why can't i find my eureka weapon in the glamour dresser, when I want to convert it to a glamour?
i just started in OCE which has double EXP servers and im leveling pretty fast which makes the game feel kind of easy. will this ruin the game's natural progression as i continue to play
you good, the duties (dungeons, trials) and instances scale you down. youll only kill overworld mobs faster
You'll need replica ver. of it
huh
alright thats nice, i was just worried because i was leveling up pretty quickly hahah
you could also level multiple classes at once to take advantage, also getting your crafters up while the buff is going will be way cheaper than normal
should say when you're on the firmament in the duty list part
ah, so you can only tell when youre in the area?
yes, to my knowledge
Has FFXIV allowed making free trial account yet? I want my friend to try this game
no
Nope
Have they announced when they're going to reopen?
no
are ew role quests needed for msq
no
no, only if you want to dye your artifact armor
just unlock dyeable AF gear
aight
guys where to i buy the replica eureka weapons?

Is there going to be new gear in 6.1? Is it a waste to craft Classical gear for all the jobs? Is 6.1 in April?
Alliance raid gear
sorry I mean upgrade to the tome gear..
So it’s like a year ago, when everyone was farming nuts to upgrade all the Crystarium gear?
the AR coin
the augment items for astronomy will be added to nuts/alliance raid tokens
barring the weapon augment
What’s the deal with Paramour Bardings andBeds? Did people buy it from the mogstation and back then it was sellable on the MB? They sell for 40mil and 1.5mil respectively
is there some kind of fate tracker? because i really wanna get this ARR relic out of the way but i've yet to see any of the fates i need to pop
rly old event items were tradeable/sellable like the eastern cherry tree before stuff was changed/added later to mogstation so you can often find old leftovers on the markeboard

Not really, no. You basically have to sit in zone and hope the one you need pops.
not rly but you can do other fates in the same zone and hope the one you need spawn fast
since each zone has a max of active fates at the same time doin others helps to make them spawn faster
ty both
So which mounts can help you carry people?
normally the ones you buy off of the mogstation
it'll tell you how many seats it has
select the 2/4/8 seat sections to see which ones carry that many
There's loads of 2 seaters, 1 8 seater and lemme think 5 4 seaters
Carriage, car, cerb, epoch and whale
Kinda sucks that the 8 seat mount you have to pay 42 dollars for it.
You really don't need an 8 seater
It's not even a good 8 seater, you can't see the passengers
Oh okay. Last question How do you get this cute pet/minion called a carbuncle?
Be a summoner
Or arcanist
Which becomes summoner
There's admittedly carby minions too, but thats an obvious answer
Carby is an arcane construct that you channel your actual summons through
anybody know the name of a dalamud plugin that adds job icons next to player names? or is it not dalamud
Thanks.
does the ffxv event happen every year or no
No
damn
It'd arbitrary no pattern
i see, thanks
Last one was in like oct/Nov so it won't be back for quite a while
I heard that level 50/60/70 dungeons aren’t good for xp when I’m dungeon spamming, is that true?
So I need these two air currents to fly but idk if those air current are from looking for them around the map or getting them after completing quests.
Those are from quests
Thx
Yes cus they are level cap content and used to give no exp
You are better off going for x1 and x9 dungeons
So do I do the dungeon just below?
Yep
Cool thanks
The x0 dungeons give mostly tomes
Is gubal library a good one to run? Cuz it has the level sync icon but doesn’t give tomes
Ye gubal is fine it's 59
Thanks for the info
hello is someone able to answer a quick question i have about lore? Im about to start stormblood and just had a question, maybe through pm im not sure how much of a spoiler it is
you can ask that in the respective spoiler channels #871803571207807036
still need to spoiler tho
ahh i did see that each expansion had a channel 😛 thanks for the help 🙂
its in the beginner lounge channel, probably why ya didn't know
Can you level past 80 when only having shadowbringers?
no
And of you buy endwalker and didnt complete shadowbringers completely can you then get past 80 in shadow bringers?
you can yeah
Thanks
If you own Endwalker and get distracted enough you can hit 90 in arr
Ok
A few streamers I know of have done this with fisher
is it possible for targeting to cycle through party members like for enemies?
theres scroll targetting, not exactly like enemies tab targetting but you can cycle with your scrolling

Does Shadow Wall stack with Rampart?
👌
how can i get a haircut in this game
anyone know of any pink rods and/or scholar books with an equip level of 50 or lower
do i have to equip any specific weapon to get luminous crystals from fates (hw relic weapon 1st step) or you just do fates with any class any weapon and pray to RNGesus
i think theres a quest at the adventures guild place in limsa
You wouldn't have a specific weapon to use if you're getting the crystals so any is fine
Yeah, you just do fates, and the crystals have a chance to drop.
The option to bypass that step would require turning in the previous expansion's relic weapon.
yea i finished my PLD hw relics and was starting on my hw...
oh shet i have to start the quest first
i was just doing fate like an idiot omg
when can i get to limsa? im still in new gridania area
=)
ah, what is currently happening in your main quest
im in "migrant marauders"
at a point in ur quest you get to tour the 3 main cities free of charge
ok so ill just do the mqs and eventually get to limsa
thats the lvl 12 quest according to the wiki
you gotta do like 6-7 more and you get to go to the other cities
after touring the cities the next quest make you go do dungeons via the duty finder
dont forget to attune to the aetheryte at each city!
thanks man
no prob, enjoy the game
so how does class lvling work like is it if you get 1 tank to 90 you've got all of them at 90 or was it just job by job like i originally thought
by job
any1 in SEA play ff14 on elemental that use unifi surffering from lag ?
do you guys fall asleep in some of the msq in ARR?
i didn't fall sleep but got pretty close at times
yea the fetch quests did bore me a bit
do u guys read every msq stroy text too? just curious
i only read like cutscene stuff
yep
i skipped through a lot of it especially the post section and just watched a summary video
im in elemental and my ping is 80 - 170ms and sometimes it disconnect, and i dc'ed as im writing this lol
u using unifi and in malaysia ?
sorry, no.
can i know where u are located ?
PH
oh i see
whats your ms now?
so connection from SEA to Jp still have problem?
100 - 150
connection unstable
the lag become unbearable when in dungeon or trail
do you use steam?
If I biy an apartment and do a server transfer, will I still have it?
if ur talking about client then no
i've heard the overlay can cause connection issues and have seen evidence to make it appear plasible
i think. i disconnect like 10 times a day and theres a spike lag from time to time when im in Wifi but in LAN, theres no lag but i still DC.
you have any other processes running that spike ?
no just ff14
i launch the normal launcher through steam so i can use a controller profile
i checked the speed and ping of my internet
you are in Wifi or LAN?
Do other people use wifi at your place?
no problem apparently
you watch the GPU in task amanger and when lag does it go haywire ?
i'm using ethernet cable connecting through a powerline adapter
is it lag or like freeze ups ?
nope
I get the same problem if ppl are streaming videos at my place
If not it's smooth as butter
(play with 200-300 ping with no problem)
its like everyone stop moving but animation still play normally then suddenly rubberband forward
that happens to me if i have a few other processes eating up my cpu / gpu
happened to me too recently. im in LAN, no vpn.
there used to be no problem
before the undersea cable from SEA to JP got damage
but they say its fixed but lag still persist
do you experience lag in other online games?
to trouble shoot it, you can use vpn to try connect to thru diff route if u have one
will try
SEA as in seattle ?
south east asia
oh maybe either way vpn still needs to use that cable ...not sure
def worth a shot tho

yup ok so im not the only one having problems logging in
If I unlocked floor 51 on my main character, but I can’t seem to start it with my alt, do I need to start from floor 1? (Palace of the dead)
keeps kicking me out of game
If so, does the + armor/wep carry over?
Alt does not share progress in potd
should i do the levemete every city i first time visit?
Nah
thanks!
how much harder is scholar than whm
Hard to compare ngl
Scholar is a shield healer, White Mage is a pure healer
i heard whm was super easy but i generally have an easier time with scholar
But it’s more “prevent the tanks hp from going down” than “heal the tank when it’s low”
Ease is subjective, whm is just simpler in design
mainly cause i tend to panick when people drop below 30% hp
SCH has like excog and lustrate that’s about it for “oh fuck” heals
so having them take way less damage tend to prevent that from happening more often
Ye
do i need to die after reaching floor 101 in order for me to get the lonely explorer title achievement?
Nah, just complete the run in any shape
You could die to get it now or keep going to floor 200
you need to record a score so die or finish at 200
so i get it immediately after getting to 100? the description is vague
right, this is the answer i was looking for
thanks!
anyone know where i can find a list of scholar books with images
To add on. Ease is definitely subjective. Less the regen vs shield aspect, Whm just has a simpler tool kit and easier to optimise. Sch has more resources to utilise.
How do I know If I'm hitting my positionals right?
I'm a DRG 
Uhh I don't quite know if there's an indicator on it
just.. You're doing more damage, I guess? 
if it's just a bonus damage, you won't know yeah
Also I didn't know SAM got bonus kenki from positionals
just try to hit positional as much as you can without sacrificing survivability, that's what I do
how big are fc rooms compared to apparentmebts
both are the same
Same size
so basically they're the same
apartment is permanent
fc house, well till you leave the fc or someone demolish it
why aren't there any pink books that i can equip
pink is obviously the superior color
ah yeah, the basic colour is blue, you can dye it according to the colour you like
then the colour will change
this feature is unique to all gordian weapons
so you can have pink katana if you want to, just prepare a pink dye
aren't the replica ellegan weapons dyable

oo what's your outfit like? could try #glamour-discussion for more expert advice
So red mage AoE, what ability do you actually use. Impact or veraero 2/Verthunder 2
Yes
short into long cast
Read the question again please
if you want to figure it out, look at their cast times. you always want to do a short cast ability into a long cast ability
I mean after jolt triggers
The answer you were given was correct, please don’t condescend to people who are trying to give legitimate help.
I wasn't
you were
You alternate aero or thunder II as your short cast
Ah, ty
Then spend dualcast proc on impact
guys, is there a best thing to buy and deliver for sb reconstruction?
Allagan gil pieces or clear demimateria basically
do you mean doman enclave? i suggest the allagan coins
if you're doing long retainer ventures you should have tons of them
Sending your retainers on the long exploration ventures gives you Allagan pieces
Tyvm, wasn't able to find a good guide on RDM AoE
i have no retainers leveled
!faq rdm50
You can get clear demi materia 3 from desynthing ironworks
do i need to have crafters leveled?
yes you need to be level 30 crafter to desynth things
Just goldsmith because rings are cheaper and can stack
You need to have levelled crafters to 30 to unlock desynth
Apologies if it came across as condescending, but answer that's "yes" isn't really helpful either
is there something that i could buy with gc seals?
I'll go over to the balance discord tho
There are many things
for efficient vendoring? doubtful
Oh for desynth? Ehh I dunno
choco breeders, please help me chose which female to use with this male, I can't decide at all
it's better to spend GC on things like ventures, repair mats, lootboxes and such
no, for the doman reconstruction
if you're truly desperate, you can buy allagan coins from the marketboard. they are usually listed almost for the vendor price, so while you wont be gaining much profit by using them for restoration
Can't find Arbor buzzards or fireflies. Do they just spawn at night?
Bottom one has one more star total I guess
at least you'll clear it fast
I'll try to get the allagan coins from the mb, thanks!
And stars in stamina which is an important stat
So I would take the bottom one but doesn’t really matter
thanks, I just need a nudge in the right direction, they possess same amount of 4 stars, just the repartition that changes a bit
what does this yellow circle above indicates or mean?
I think they're part of the hunting log for your current class ? Not 100% sure I remember correctly
Hunting log enemies
yes showed "hunting log" on screen but did not understand ^^'
it's a list of enemies you can kill for extra xp, in the main menu choose Logs -> Hunting Log
No point to do it after you’re lvl 15+
Or press H
I am lvl 19 lol
I see! thank you <3
eh, i completed all of them, it's something to do, was cool to search around

what does the request timed out mean ?
packet was lost, reasons are many
rip 15% loss 📿
why when i try genshin impact asia server IP i have 0 packet loss
so its server side problem ?
then the problem is somewhere between you and that 124.150.157.158 server
could also be that the server is just not configured to answer all ping requests
did my service provider lied saying the SEA to JP undersea cable is fixed ?
hard to tell with ISPs
what weapon hould i use for a level 50 red mage
anthing
augmented ironworks
where do i get it aelina doesn't have one
but the one you get for free is good enough for dungeons
They do
dont buy gear, just equip stuff you get from dungeons
there is honestly no reason to buy lvl 50 ironwork gear
for RDM for sure
isn't ironworks way stronger than anything you'll get for quite a few levels
you get okay quality stuff from the starter quest for RDM
when 1 lvl up could get u gear that has almost the same power
not by a lot
i have enough tomestones anyways
you get ilvl 115 gear from your starter quest, which is good enough for dungeons
and no she does not sell a regen
well its up to u
Not accessories
ironworks is 130, which is better, but not really worth it if you have better things to buy with poetics
oh ironworks not masterworks
15 ilvls is a pretty big difference
like what?
gear for other alt jobs
the current tier is 20 ilvls of difference and its a big boost in lvl 90 content
What does the Sprout + Crown symbol mean?
Returner, you’ve been gone for a while and came back
Hey, I'm currently leveling all of my DoH/DoL to 90. I've got them all to level 70 and ran out of job quests and levequests. What's the most efficient way to level them from here? Should I just a week or 2 to get more leves, or just work on crafting all the highest level stuff available to me to complete the crafting log?
ur gonna get better stuff from the MSQ anyway and ur prob overlvl if u have the early bird( is that what its called?) boost anyway
Ah okay ty
if you're not in a hurry, GC turn-ins are a pretty great source of exp
i don't have early bird boost since i returned after a few months
depends on when you pick up rdm, i did when i hit 50 before even beating 2.1
if you want to do something now, do levequests or ishgard restoration (until 80)
and crafted gear is hella overpriced plus isnt always hq
i'm still in early hw
This is probably a dumb question, but I think I've missed something there. what are the GC turn ins?
if u find it to be worth it to buy then go for it i suppose
Grand Company Provision and Supply missions
GC wants an item, you give it, EXP and seals galore
Ah, i didn't even know i could do that. Thank you.
you'll start hitting a point where the min ilvl for a duty is around 130 anyways
HQ turn-ins are double xp
but also the last duty of HW is ilvl 142 so you'll need to have hit your job quests again for that
yeh, for ironworks, get the accessories first lol
cause afaik the rdm starter kit don't have accessories
plus, caster Ironworks works with the other jobs
tome gear is enough for most players to get buy until the next set of tome gears imo, tho it makes the x7 and x9 dungeons a bit funky
btw does rdm heal scale off int?
it do
I did fine in the 87 dungeon with Crypt Healer gear 
(but if you're using dungeons to level up by the time you get to x7 and x9 you should have a bunch of drops from the x5, which will help)
vercure is also great for procing dualcast for rezzing
But remember, you’re a dps. Do dps things
or during downtime
downtime means like outside your embolden window?
If healer dies, i usually use vercure on the tank, and then verraise on the healer for instant cast. Apart from that I don't really use it.
downtime usually means 'no targets to attack' phase of the fight
tbh I haven't tried RDM yet, but since It has sleep now, I wanted to try it for POTD 😹
since It started at lv 50, no need to level it, just jump into potd straight away
It's a really fun class tbh, but it takes a moment to get used to.
I mean if you’re soloing...you can’t raise anyway
RDM is SUPER useful in bozja, your groups will love you
not only in bozjan, lol everywhere 👀
Guaranteed commendations in dungeons if you need to raise as a RDM. 😛
so should i buy accessories instead of a weapon
weapon/chest/pants are the big ones
usually the answer to that question is 'always weapon' but if your accessories are super low level or if you dont have any, get accessories
is it wise to sell my starting items?
what's your accessories?
okayyyy :>
if you look down, if it has shop selling price
you can rebuy it
at the tooltip
i90 earing and ring i70 ring i5 necklace i26 bracelet
Definitely
lol yea, buy accessories first 😹
accessories for sure
ouch
i think i might have a shiva bracelet in my glamor dresser
No
I think shiva is only ilvl 90 as well 🤔
just get ironworks, you'll use it on SMN/BLM/BLU later too
get all accessories -> weapon, assuming you will have enough poetics till lv 55 dungeons..
cause lv 55 dungeons drop will replace your poetics stuff
anyone play on spriggan
Yes many people
does blm get more interesting at later levels
I do
job really starts at 60 imo
BLM starts to get spicy when you get triplecast
blm changes like every 6 levels
well it's different from RDM 👀 that's for sure
i tried it up to lvl 20 or so and it was kinda boring but that's not really a good test
that's not even blm
i legit just made my character on spriggan and i found some cringy ass e daters 
technically it is
They're on every world and server, believe me
You'll find those on every server.
usually in Limsa from my experience.
man it was smth diff 💀😭
is healer like an unpopular role or something?
ye
i jus wanted some money 
only cnj until lvl 30
I like Whm
There’s only 4 of em and not everyone is good
i usually instaque on healer but it takes awhile on dps
because dps is more common
and all healers basically hit one button for their dps rotation, which is a turn off for a lot of people
not a lot of people want to heal, plus a lot of people dont want to learn/are afraid of responsibility
i'm just not an inately agressive person
i'm only agressive when i'm angry and i consider myself a fairly tolerant person
and you picked the job with the blood lily?
What does that have to do with anything? Healers still dps
Blood for the Blood Lily
dps are for agresive people right?
are you a lalafell?
no?
yes
yes
every job in this game is a dps, blue dps are just also responsible for positioning the mobs, and green dps sometimes dps party bars
I got the lalafell vibe for some reason, lol
People play [insert job] because they like playing [insert job]
dps are for people who want to have fun, healers are for people who work a job and come home and want to be in charge of 3 idiots on their free time
plus i feel this strange void in myself if i'm not helping others
Death is the best mitigation
dps still help in their own way
ah yeah, that's what healer all about
fixing other people mistake
your soul callling for you playing healers
i feel more helpful as a healer than a dps
say no more, fam
I like playing both healer and dps.
healer shortage is the fantasy version of a teacher shortage
But I'm an aggressive healer.
Rpr is my preferred dps
Reaper is a pretty low performance dps tho
yeah dont gotta overthink it and take your preferred role as some personality quiz tbh
i thought maybe i'll pick up rdm so i can do both
like you will be punished by mech anyway if you are agressive 👀 1 more gcd, wipe the whole party
SGE is more fun than it should be.
plus they look super flashy
Sge feels weird going from Whm
in pvp even worse, when you hunt a certain person, they'll lure you to their group if you are on bloodlust mode
the charge sound on RDM spells is chef's kiss
I think like most jobs do more dmg than rpr, yeah it looks flashy but what does it bring to the table
main thing ive found is when content has a dps check and you're stuck on a healer and cant meet it no matter what you do
it was literally top dps in 6.0
all roles have their purpose i just feel like i personally can offer more to the party in healer than dps
all the other jobs got buffed to around reapers place lol
Rpr I think still edges the top?
nope
Sure personal dps is high, but what about utility/support
Arcane Circle
reaper has arcane circle
They have a dmg buff and a regen
and crest
yeah
!action Arcane Circle
Increases damage dealt by self and nearby party members by 3%.
Duration: 20s
Additional Effect: Grants Circle of Sacrifice to self and nearby party members
Duration: 5s
Additional Effect: Grants Bloodsown Circle to self
Duration: 6s
Circle of Sacrifice Effect: When you or party members under this effect successfully land a weaponskill or cast a spell, the reaper who applied it may be granted a stack of Immortal Sacrifice, up to a maximum of 8
Duration: 30s
Bloodsown Circle Effect: Allows you to accumulate stacks of Immortal Sacrifice from party members under the effect of your Circle of Sacrifice
3% dmg buff
Yeah but don’t some jobs do like a 10 percent buff?
no
Rdm does right
if they do, its personal
!action acceleration
Ensures the next Verthunder III, Veraero III , or Impact can be cast immediately.
Duration: 20s
Additional Effect: Increases the potency of Impact by 50
Additional Effect: Ensures Verthunder III and Veraero III trigger Verfire Ready or Verstone Ready respectively
Maximum Charges: 2
usually higher the buff, the shorter the duration
which is pretty equal to rpr's 3% for 30s
Not that one... what's it called...
!faq utility
best dps utility is still TA?
boldness?
still not updated
5% every 60 secs
reaper was literally outdpsing SAM in rdps, it was insane
Embolden
its still really good
That's the one
!action embolden
Yeah, there it is
still never understood why embolden used to only buf phys attacks
i guess it was to show the hyrbid that is rdm an it became like that
anyone know where to find Thancred to unlock bowl of embers (hard)?
Waking Sands
thank you 🙂
why cant i travel to the lavender beds?
materia dc hasn't opened their housing yet
so you need to delay doing that blue quest till 6.1
ohhh so i cant complete this mission until they open it?
no
I’m not sure if anyone will have an answer, but I’ve been trying to renew my subscription and my purchase hasn’t gone through yet. They charged me $1 but that’s it. Should I try again or contact customer support?
can go to Ishgard housing
what is 6.1?
estimated april
next major patch
incoming patch, that will give housing access to materia dc
you are currently on patch 6.08
so next major patch is 6.1 for everyone
for referance, the msq and quests you're doing is from 2.0
is this a guild?!
Guildhest
nah, guildhest system is an old system that is an introduction to group content
Dead content
im a scholar that doesnt heal at all @vast ferry
my faeri does all that grunt sork
i only deal damage
do you have a question or
Faerie hardly does enough
False
replying to the above stuff abou why people play their role
but forgot to click reply
you have a bunch of skills that tell her to do cooldown heals
thats giving instructions ... the fae still doing the heals XD
!action Dissipation
Orders your faerie away while granting you a full Aetherflow stack. Also increases healing magic potency by 20%.
Duration: 30s
Current faerie will return once the effect expires.
Summon Eos or Summon Selene cannot be executed while under the effect of Dissipation.
Can only be executed while in combat.
perfect, i can do it on FT
every 3 minutes
but i gotta prog msq ... just got to the quest after after the yellow primal ded
Titan?
i was trying to keep it spoiler free in case others call me out again
guess it was pointless wprry, hah?
what should i use Centurio Seal for
free teleports
Whatever you wanna
im doing that with the all seal
dont spend it on aetheryte tickets, get one-time rewards first
like mounts and pets
theres also some mounts and minions and is where you rebuy the lvl 60 af gear
yeh, I reckon wyvern is from centurio right?
i stack them
you can get like a 120 aetheryte tickets weekly by doing blue mage carnivale and spending allied seals
i use them for more free teleports but thats my suggestion
where do i speak to the person to use the cen seal
the forgetten knight in ishgard
and the bar in kugane
note that they sell different things
hoikaze hostelry or something
oh I totally forgot that the kugane is also centurio
do they sell the same stuff or?
different
yes
where the knight in ishgard
foundation -> forgotten knight aetheryte
it's the ishgard inn. it's on the map, and is an aetheryte location
that's the name of the inn in ishgard, forgotten knight
down in the bottom of the inn
next to the innkeeper
be a crappy name to have
hi. should i get every job (fishing etc) when i visit the cities? or do it later? im just doing msq
you can play the whole game and not pick up any other jobs
if you feel like you want to try something new, you can grab a job and try it. it's free and you can get all of them on one character
up to you theirs no yes or no answer just do it at your own leisure or feel like a switch
thank u for the input!
just note that jobs that start from level 1 can feel slow at first, since they're aimed at people who are just starting out playing the game, so they're a lot simpler
get more intricate the higher level you get though
i'm kinda curious, can you skip ARR as a trial player?
no
how do i level quickly as a dps
MSQ
!faq altlvlguide
How much is a small plot house?
Unless you pay money, but idk if that voids trial
It does
around 5m including all the house permit and furniture
rip
but land alone, 4m
that's for level 90 players
It literally isn’t tho
if you level all doh/dol, then finish MSQ, it's not surprising that you will end up with 10mish
When some people talk in party chat, there is sometimes red and green arrows next to what they are saying
What does that mean?
auto-translation system
Auto translate
that's an auto-translate
Ahh yeah i guessed so
it will translate to the respective reader's client language
there are 4 available languages, JP, EN, DE, FR
start typing in chat and press Tab to access it
How easy is shb ex atm? Or well I heard innocence and titania take 1m but how skippable with mechanics are the last few? Or any specific fights I ought to know about before setting up farms?
- e.g you can't skip x mechanic, it has to be done
(ps I've done them all during shb but wanna host farms for my friends)
still should respect mechanincs
You should still know the fight, or you’ll die
its pretty easy, but some fights still hurt and you need to do 1 or 2 mechanics
emerald ex still need to respect orbs and swords
etc etc
Ty!
it is pretty approachable for new lvl 90 players tho, so if you teach it they can learn
which one has more mechanic, lower shb raid tier like e4s, or the latest shb ex like dia ex
fight dependent @patent citrus
most of the bosses die but always have 1 or two big mechanics you pretty much have to do
ah ok,
diamond ex still have all of first phase and half of second
second is ifrit robot? or after the limit cut?
Hey so what the hell does La Noscean topsoil do now??
Tooltip still says it increases the chance of HQ crops, but I'm combing thru the marketboard and I'm not seeing any since they removed HQ non-craftables
probably increases the number of seeds dropped
I hope it's something, and they only forgot to update the tooltip, vs not having any new effect
its very possible they forgot to update the tooltip, they missed a few for mch and rdm in 6.0
make sure to tell us what does happen if you notice any difference, looks like its not documented very well
I'm brand new to gardening, and I'm not sure I can even get seeds back since I only have an apartment, and I know that at least crossbreeding's off-limits to me. If I notice anything, I'll be sure to share tho
so my husband is playing (i made him play 😛 i did quit :P), but ok, he bought endwalker now, is lvl 80, but he doesnt lvl, why not? i asked today and people said you can get above lvl 80 in shadowbringers (in which he is currently at) when you have endwalker
pc?
no playstation 5
gotta register the code in mogstation
also on playstation?
