Ahhhhh
the objective in the quest log usually tells you what to do
I'll tell him Cheers!
He has been trying to interact with this for 2 hours lmfao
if the quest log objective has a word with a / before it it means do that emote
does the bind effect of holmgang have any use in PvE?
it would realistically only work in dungeons, and dungeons are easy enough that it is not required
it is recommended to make a macro that casts holmgang on yourself and not on your target
because your holmgang disappears if your target dies
The only case where it would have any use is like where tank ans healer dies and you want one less mob chasing you / other dps while healer and tank respawn.
In my experience thats less than 1 in 100 run i think XD
(but you're a warrior so you are a healer for yourself already)
unless it's content between 42 and 56 lvls
hey guys has anyone got the link to the FF 145 launcher download? đ
!faq download
thanks đ
what is 1016 world data could not be obtained?
so my friend is trying play ff 14 free trial since its back its asking him for the registration code how does he get it?
Have there been server issues? yesterday multiple members in my static had connection problems, and personally I have been disconnected multiple times over the past 2 days
Why canât I click on the links on the very first post of #resources ?
looks like they're broken, try reporting it to #discord-feedback
but you can just scroll down
the content it links to is still there, just below
i canât log in at all, keep getting 1016
I like convenience though
Is there much point to upgrading my blue fire PLD anima to the lux? I like the look of the blue much more than the orange fire.
glam
You can rebuy the previous version from the Reconstruction node after you upgrade
you will be able to use replicas after
So you can have both
Ohh ok thank goodness, greatly appreciated đ
Plus replicas go into the glamour dresser
Oh pog
cant dye the blue one but can dye the red one
cant dye glow tho đŚ
as a typical rule, whenever you upgrade a relic weapon the previous version becomes purchasable as a glamour item
there are exceptions
I am new to the tank role, and I got the drk mitigation skill. Am I expected to use shadow wall then reprisal, then rampart?
reprisal and rampart are about similar effect on a pack of mobs
so order doesn't super matter there
don't forget arm's length as well
super crucial
Is samurai a hard job to learn?
How does arm length help with mitigation? I thought it prevented knockback
It slows them
Which means they hit you less
Thus you take less damage overall
!action Arm's length
Creates a barrier nullifying most knockback and draw-in effects.
Duration: 6s
Additional Effect: Slow +20% when barrier is struck
Duration: 15s
whatâs the mentor crown with a warning label next to it mean?
means they haven't renewed their mentor cert yet
since the requirements changed in patch 6.0
if they haven't renewed by 6.1 then they lose mentor status
You can't register an OTP to a trial acct right?
Right
where do i get that kabuto head piece other than marketboard?
Aside from the ones on the marketboard, you can only get them from the seasonal event
So I have a friend who bought the full version of FFXIV, but has yet to pay a subscription fee due to the 30 days free thing. Does this mean we can still do the recruitment bonus thing when they eventually do start their sub?
Every year, it just happened
bummer so next year then
The ones on the marketboard are from old versions of the event, the newer versions can't be sold anymore
You can do it now. They have to be recruited before they pay for the sub. Do it during the free 30 days.
Will doing it now charge them?
No, recruitment doesn't charge
can any of the usagi kabuto be dyed?
Old ones eventually get put on the cash shop a year after the event. You can see a bunch of them here for example https://store.finalfantasyxiv.com/ffxivstore/en-us/category/3
I don't see any of the usagi kabuto as dyable
oh cool thanks!
whats the difference between the testugi usagi kabuto on the paid store vs the usagi kabuto on the marketboard
The paid one cant be traded or posted on the MB, so that players can't pay real money to turn it in to gil.
is there anything similar to the legionary visor that can be dyed?
Okay, they entered the code. Is all I have to do is wait for the rewards to be sent to my mailbox?
Or mail moogle.
Mask of Azuro, but that's blue mage only
Yes
Danke
can i use it as a glam for other jobs?
Nope
edenmorn
There's also Rose Gold Circlet, which is a red/orange color, for DoM. And Nighthawk Visor, which is black, for DoW. Neither are dyable though.
On the SE store what does Shipment: Processed mean
There's edenmorn for some roles
@rugged flicker ^
There's technically the ktiseos and shadowless masks for some roles too
friends and i trying to unsync clear e1s as a 4 stack but for delta attack B(2nd phase), will the stacking aoe always be on non-tanks?
does the limited levelling roullete only work if theres 4 of you?
and if so would it be worth still stacking or just each individual player just soaking that up
Yes. It says in the description
Has the xlitem plugin been discontinued ? I can't find it anymore
Dalamud Plugin for searching for items. Contribute to Caraxi/ItemSearchPlugin development by creating an account on GitHub.
Thanks !
is there a command to set current target as focus target
oh nice, tyty

/gearset change "change da world" <wait.1>
/ac "Self-destruct"```
can anyone tell me why the `/ac` fails here ?
tells me it's not a valid action name
because bluemage skills don't use /ac, you need /blueaction
You need to use /blueaction instead of /ac
gonna guess you need to say blueaction
ah i see thank you
while i'm at it is there a better solution than using a whole gear set slot for this ?
why do you need a gear set?
i am confident i once saw a macro that used one command to equip just the cane on reddit
Any idea what path opening/barrier breaking sound and Boss voice in DG tied to in sound category? they're all ear blasting on my end
because i need to equip the cane to switch to blu @heavy wadi
Hey :) Is there a channel or disccord to find people to do the higher floors of PotD? Or do people actually look for this in party finder? I've never seen anything so far =(
^
Btw in order to attemp p2s in a new week, I need to clear p1s again?
No, but if you skip P1S, you will not be able to go back and get loot from it this week.

Ah, thanks
what do you guys do after you get all lvl 90s
i have a couple lvl 90s
and im thinking
what do i do after
Whatever floats your boat
what happens if a quick venture brings you a unique item you already have in your bags? does that just not happen and the reward rerolls behind the scenes?
example: aug. cryptlurker
I believe it just gets marked as unfinished until you can claim the reward but I don't remember
My friends are trying to create characters on aether but new character creation has been closed for like 48 hours. Is there any way to tell if/when this will get lifted?
It's a population balancing measure
Yea but I want to play with my friends.

thats
Eventually you will be able to travel across data centers
Aether is overpopulated. It will probably not be open until 6.1, in april.
For temporary play visits
Blame the streamers for all going to aether.
before it would randomly lift the restriction like at night or during non-peak hours, are they not doing that anymore?
thats a different thing
It's different
Thats just the world being full
!faq serverlock
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
Congested Is an official status
Congested with a capital C is a status
Temporary character lock =\= congested
That is not the same as "Congested."
Not likely to open then either
Don't know that.
Is it not weird that in the game none of this is written? Anywhere?
You don't know it'll open in 6.1 either
It's written pretty clearly.
Is it not weird that you missed all of this written in game?
They make an entire lodestone post when they change congested status
No as people trying to make a character
It just says congested, thats it. No definitions, nothin
thats all you need to know
Do you not know what congested means?
That's all you need to know.
It's not an ff term
If youâre a tank, are you supposed to do big pulls, small pulls at a time, whatever you feel comfortable with?
Yall are insane.
ok
big pulls are the default unless the healer is struggling
what your comfy with though big pulls is always preffered
It's commonplace to pull until u hit "a wall'
or doesnt want to do them
its uygiri's outfit obtainable somehow?
They give you the info and link everytime you log in
yugiri*
which one
the ARR outfit?
Comfortable, but you should at least pull 2 packs at once as that's a good baseline for tanks
that purple hooded one she has
Arr yugiri is a custom miqo
At least two?
That's custom and no
damn
minor fun fact with that outfit , yurigi is a miqo underneath the hood
NPC specific; was that way because au ra didn't have a finalized design in game yet 
đ
@half hare
Has anyone heard any kind of update on when Aether might stop being congested? I've had a friend who bought a sub without knowing who wanted to try the game, and they couldn't use any of their sub time and Square wont refund them :c
.
ty
Server status only changes when a content patch releases or a server gets severely overpopulated
Next content patch is 6.1 but seeing as aether was a case of the latter it's unlikely to reopen in 6.1
Whatâs she look like?
while i dont have a image we can make the miqo look used under the mask using garland tools its just a short hair look nothing to special

the other day I was on cape westwind and forgot to remove a dungeon and It set dungeon and I withdrew and it said this I don't understand
I still finished the mission
how does it work ?
After a few next drop out locks you out of instanced content for half an hour
it resets tomorrow
should healers also go in cerberus' belly in world of darkness if theyre in alliance B? or just dps
Doesn't really matter. I don't think I've ever seen anyone need healing in the belly unless there's only a few people that went in, making it take longer.
Why wouldn't they?
But the extra DPS from the healer is good
If they go in they kill shit in the belly faster
Which is the main objective
And if in the common occurrence of your tank ignoring chat you'll want to be there to stop the dps getting themselves killed
Is there a way to check what apparel NPCs are wearing?
Look them up on GarlandDB or GamerEscape
What was the trick to get Scholar and Summoner at the same level
Like get them both at 50
There is no trick, just level one and the other levels automatically
They both use arcanist exp. Even if you haven't unlocked one yet, it will automatically match the others level when you finally do unlock it.
so i've done a ton of blue quests, mostly DF unlocks, how would I go about finishing all blue quests especially those that unlock futures like desynth or meld related etc ? can i open a location on the map and check whether i have blue quests there or do i have to tp to every aetheryte? what should i do without going one by one in the gamerescape links ?
!faq contentunlock
They'll be in arr content
The Gamerescape lists would be the best way I think. Skim over them and look for stuff you don't already have done.
Whatâs the song that plays during the Alexander Raid boss fights
You're gonna have to be more specific
Arenât they the same
There's like 7 different themes
The one with the syringes
A to the L to the E xander
Where the boss keeps transforming
gobbies gonna rise up boom like thunder
Locus
That's locus
Thanks thatâs it

!faq unsync
In your duty finder window select the âď¸ icon on the top left to open up the duty finder settings window.
Inside that window select the setting unrestricted 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.
You make your own party
Party finder I think
And enter
!action basic instinct
Increases movement speed by 30%, and healing magic potency and damage dealt by 100%. Also ignores the damage penalty inflicted by Mighty Guard.
Can only be used in duties intended for two or more players while playing alone, while no other party members are in the instance, or when all party members are incapacitated. Effect ends when joined by one or more party members.
A behavior learned from certain species of coeurl, the caster rises to the challenge of losing comrades by tapping into a feral survival instinct. When all seems lost, or when simply treading where a lone mage was not meant to tread, unrestrained ferocity is sometimes the only way to win through.

Blue is fun
Oh christ the t7 runs
Blue seems interesting but as someone who prefers support roles it never got my attention enough to give it a proper shot
Be a healer blu
Blue is dps
There is no roles only BLU
it's classified as DPS, but I'm sure there's a busted Heal move somewhere
!action Angel Snack
Restores own HP and the HP of all nearby party members.
Cure Potency: 400
Additional Effect: Grants healing over time effect when you are under the effect of Aetherial Mimicry: Healer
Cure Potency: 200
Duration: 15s
Shares a recast timer with certain blue magic spells.
A spell attributed to the guardian statues of the New World wherein the caster manifests a spread of aetherial treats with panacean properties. Those nourished by the feast find their wounds quickly closingâan effect which lingers when provided by a practitioner with knowledge of healing.

A full party of blus usually need a tank and healer. And blu can turn in to both. There's even spells specifically for both.
Creates a barrier around self and all nearby party members that absorbs damage equivalent to a heal of 100 potency.
Duration: 30s
Barrier strength is increased to absorb damage equivalent to a heal of 250 potency when you are under the effect of Aetherial Mimicry: Healer.
Effect cannot be stacked with those of scholar's Galvanize or sage's Eukrasian Diagnosis and Eukrasian Prognosis.
Only select goblins are privy to this technique, developed through unscrupulous scientific experimentation conducted by the Illuminati. It allows one to weave a thin, skintight veil of aether across their entire body, handily augmenting the usual defenses.

!faq white wind
!action White Wind
Restores own HP and the HP of all nearby party members by an amount equal to your current HP.
White Wind imbues a localized current of air with purified aether, distributing its curative effects throughout the vicinity. Though powerful for such a simple spell, the purification of sufficient aether requires significant magical exertion on the part of the caster, and thus should be used sparingly.

Reduces damage taken by 40% while reducing damage dealt by 40%, increasing enmity generation, and preventing casting interruptions via damage taken.
Effect ends upon reuse.

Iâm starting to see why se is so against letting us use blue mage for so much content
Okay, let's stop spamming blu spells to prove a point
Blue is literally every role
Because of that, it's raise is a Cooldown
!action Angel's Whisper
And the other raise requires sacrifices
Wrong one kupo
Wrong axtion
Wasnât might guard basically every defensive spell combined in ffx feels kinda underwhelming here compared to that
Then again it was a limit break there
It's their tank stance basically
It's basically a tank stance for blu mages here
Lmao diamondback
And chelation gate
Personal tank LB3
Already finished the quest and named them yet still I can't summon a Chocobo though I have 50+ greens! Is there something I'm missing?
Use the green
You need to use the green directly not though the ui if a recall correctly
They can do either
Or was that mount/dismount
Hey I'm 21 and apparently that's old now what do the kids mean when they say "ratio" like an insult? Ratio of what to what?
Whatâs the name of the song from ||king thordanâs bossfight|| major hw spoilers

how can I mount?
This is companion
Heroes was correct
Use the whistle then go into the mount guide
Itâs also a song in ffxiv
Also what an underwhelming character says when she uses her underwhelming ultimate
I miss mass res
Just healer lb3
It was also the only way to get potg on a healer
Trueeeee
#not-ffxiv-discussion but they removed it because people would hide away from fights and then just fly in to mass rez
But weâre pretty off topic
which is completely opposite of what you want to do as a healer
which is ironic because in ffxiv that's one of the best ways to save a failing run
Yeah no it's cool we can go back to catgirls
I stand by my opinion that they have underwhelming cat ears
Not in #questions-and-help
Okay i was pretty much done anyways
Doing sahagin quests and one of them is to get the crates from the merchantman but it's not letting me get there, any ideas?
Thereâs a water lizard in the sahagin base thatâll take you over, remember flight wasnât always a thing

im an idiot, where do i buy game time for my account? Bought the game back in january, and the game time runs out tomorrow...
!faq mogstation
Mogstation
yeah i been in the mogstation, but it ask for a game time code, which i dont have?
You can change the way you pay for subscription
Do it via debit/credit
Or buy crysta
oooh
I recommend this
i AM an idiot xD Found it! I just need to use my eyes lol
why is it bette to buy crysta?
I use credit
but depending on where you live and preferences some prefer crysta
I mean if you have a credit card go for it
now another question: whats the difference between the Entry and standard sub besides the price and the limit of characters?
You don't need more than 1 char
So unless you wanna rp a lot then entry is better
Only reason to buy standard is if you go for 6 months and know you are going to be playing the entire 6 months
Yea at 6 months it's same monthly price as entry
any way to hide the names of minions
it has PC name, companion name and pet name
Last tab
can you make a macro involving summoning a mount?
like summon a mount and collapse a hotbar it's on after
Yes, /mount <name> and /hotbar display <#> off
perfect, wanted to make sure if it was that simple
and then for icon would it just be /micon "name" mount?
Yes
Where do I get a perm mount? I can only rent one đ˘. Sorry im pretty new
!faq mount
progress MSQ
When can I get my first mount?
The quest that allows you to use mounts,
''My Little Chocobo'', is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest
''The Company You Keep''. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose, and you'll need to buy a Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 required Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes immediately after ''The Company You Keep''.
Are there any differences between mounts?
Some mounts allow multiple people (2/4/8) to ride at once, with all mounts having the same movement speed. A partial exception to this rule is the SDS Fenrir, a mount from the Mog Station. The SDS Fenrir acts as if you have the first mount speed boost obtained from completing specific quests in the story, making it a bit faster than other mounts, but only until completing the relevant story quests for that zone.
Can I make my mount faster?
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
There's an emotes window in the social menu. You can use them from there or drag them on to a hotbar. They also have slash commands for each one that can be used in chat to trigger them.
so i wanted to create an account and moggle is closed in how much hours is the best time to try to access it?
Moogle is in Congested status, so it will stay closed until patch 6.1 at the earliest.
You can create a character on one of the open worlds in the datacenter and use world visit to go to Moogle, but you won't be able to join an FC on Moogle.
How do you respond to tells on PlayStation? I feel bad not replying to this tank I played with today
/reply or /r
or plug in a keyboard
I registered a SE account on mogstation. Can I access the trial with it or do I need more hoops to jump through?
A new account? You should be able to download the trail launcher and login with it I think. Just not the Steam trial launcher. I'm not sure about the PS trial.
Okay, xlauncher says "service acct in question is not registered", but when I click on "add new service acct" on mogstation, it wants me to buy the game.
Does xlauncher work with subbed accts only?
i heard diffrent servers specialize in diffrent things where do i check what a server specializes in what thing
!faq serverpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
to add to this, on Chaos the unofficial RP server is Omega, while afaih, on Materia they sorta decided in advance that Sophia will be the RP server

Question, is there level 90 crafteable/marketboard gear for DOL? My miner is close to level 90 but I am still in 4.1
What are these bars and small roof thing called (ignore the numbers)
Yes, the AR-Caean/Ophiotauroskin gear
Thanks!
Wait it is?
are there lvl 80 relic weapons for the new jobs?
No
No
Never
Relics are never retroactive
ty
Relics are only for jobs that were available in that expansion
What are manufactured/puppet's/breach coins used for?
Should I toss them?
Yes
Unless you're one of those people that likes collecting old basically removed items
nah i don't have the luxury of inventory space for that
Retainers

What would be the best way for me to farm Gil at lvl 55?
Tryna save up for A outfit piece I really want
Well... daily roulettes are always good
Gotcha
Omega I can personally confirm, Sophia is hearsay
And honestly, just msq
as long as you have the daily bonus
MSQ gives a surprising amount of gil
I see
Never knew, and also on omega

if you check the chaos RP discord, like 75% of people there are omega

idk. i just want to use a mount in general
Top half
Yea chocobo is your first mount you get
hmm ok i guess im close then
Keep at it 
if you have a friend or FC to help you
they can just powerlevel you to 70 in like 30 minutes
which will give you a pretty nice head start on BLU
the level doesn't matter much anyway, it's more about the spells you've obtained
hey, im doing MSQ with a friend and we made a promise to go to the ||moon ||together so just that i know, what's the quest name? so i dont go before him (im 6 quests ahead)
Youâll know when
It's literally right after the dungeon
oh so no worries?

Iâm on controller and lately for some reason have been running into issues with my WXHBs where, for example, I will use a buff thatâs on the down button on a WXHB, but when I release the trigger to go back to my main HB I think I am not letting up on the down button fast enough because itâll change target to myself. I feel like this has something to do with the WXHB sensitivity settings, but I donât know which way I need to be going?
As in youâll do the action and then target yourself?
should i be doing these? or not worth the time?
ooh nice
im like lvl 16 so perfect timing
Yeah so like I would press the down arrow on my controller with the WXHB up, but Iâm guessing Iâm holding it a fraction of a second too long when transitioning back to my main HB?
Is it completely impossible to get the Makai gear for bards?
Because the down arrow targets myself if Iâm not holding any triggers
From my testing of what youâre describing. Iâm only getting it happen when I double tap down or when I let go of the trigger right after pressing down
Currently impossible, yes
The event is planned to come back, but no definitive date has been given
Should I just get the moonward set and worry about radiant gear later?
Where can I exchange Astronomy?
I only have 91 of that
They use different currencies so yes, get the Moonward stuff while itâs still useful
what's the moonward ilevel
A-rank trains are quick way to get it
570
That means I have to unlock the extra dungeons for expert roulettes
As an alternative solution, have you tried the option where once you use an action on the WXHB, it automatically unselects it and goes to the main crossbar?
Or would that not work for how you have it set up
Not really an issue. 
Itâs only 2 other dungeons
Where are they
finally getting around to fixing AST hotbars, there's no reason to have Undraw on my bars is there?
Itâs a completely useless button
Where do you spend Astronomy?
Radz
radz-at-hans
EW tomestones will always be used at Radz
oh, isn't there a setting to change default UI scaling or something?

Where do I go for that, if it exists?
System Config > Display settings
Hm I have not considered that but Iâll look into it to see how it works because I do often have to spam actions like pots which are on my secondary bar
I can't find my ather compass,
I checked the key item section, and my retainers,
and I tried talking to Gibrillont, and he won't give me a new one.
What do I do?
ohh, all the guides online said it's a key item,
thanks
ok,
I wish they told me,
thanks again!
so most of the guides that you see will be incorrect because they're now out-of-date 
yup np
On what should I spend Poetics between 80-90 ? ShB gear ?
spend it on gear for other jobs, or make a Heavensward relic weapon
how to make slots that you don't have an ability on dissapear (on hotbar)
You canât spend it on anything past ShB so
Character Config -> Hotbar Settings -> Display -> "Hide unassigned slots."
what's that relic weapon ?
final form is called Lux, starting quest is "An Unexpected Proposal" in Idyllshire
It's just for cosmetics or ?
at this point yeah
Yes
a relic weapon is only relevant for visuals if it's outdated
Ok, better spend those on gear then

yeah I went through and bought all poetics gear before starting a HW relic
can I force a UI element to always appear above another if they overlap?
like if I overlap alliance lists element with enemy list element can I make it so enemy always appears above?
So there no such thing as Heirloom gear from WoW, which ilvl automatically upgrade with lvl ? I have to get every job set of every lvl range if I don't want to bother with gear while leveling ?
For at and past level 50, I just get the tomestone sets and try to replace it with dungeon gear
no, there's nothing like heirloom gear in ffxiv
the closest thing is one item, menphina's earring, but that's only available if you preordered endwalker
not available anymore
it's an earring that gives an exp boost up to level 80 and also automatically scales ilvl
i think the 89 job gear syncs as well?
the 89 job gear is nothing like menphina's earring or heirloom gear from wow
Only for the one level.
but at that point itâs like a very small change to a stat so it barely makes a difference lol
Yeah well, I wish there were more synced gear, cause my armory is already full of gear that I kept for leveling purpose.
well, we also have a fat fucking load more inventory space than wow provides
as the tradeoff
wow doesn't have an armory
True, and adding space are gated behind gold.
Slightly incorrect, ShB relics specifically are bis for all current ultimates
noted
If ew relics have custom sub stats they'll probably still only be equal for the current 3 ultimates and bis for dsu and probably ult 5
it will most likely have a stage with custom stats
but it won't be at the start
literally every relic has that step
It'll also depend on how said custom stats work, but I seriously doubt they'll do another eureka
Not really. They can be used at any level once learned, so they don't have levels tied to them directly.
The blue spellbook is arranged by the expansion the spells are from
Like 50-80 is mostly HW, 81-104 is SB
...can a macro be used to set a specific slot in a hotbar to be a certain action? it's for some whack shit I'm using for a utility hotbar
As long as the actin isn't a macro yes

I'm struggling a bit in 81+ dungeons as SGE when the tank pulls three or more trash groups together. Can anyone offer some suggestions or point me to some guides that cover this for SGE? My item level is 514.
Well first get cryptlurker stuff
Then Physis + Kerachole everytime
Alternate Hamia and Panhamia each pull. Use them before Physis heal buff falls off
Terachole after Kerachole falls off
Druchhole as necessary
Theres only like⌠2 trash groups
!faq healingup
There's two notable types of healing up buffs in the game. The most common for healers to have is written as 'increases healing magic potency.' Skills with this phrasing buff the outgoing healing done from GCD heals only by the person(s) with this buff applied, and it does not affect oGCD heals.
Healer actions with this effect:
⢠Neutral Sect (AST)
⢠Fey / Seraphic Illumination (SCH | applies to the whole party)
⢠Dissipation (SCH)
⢠Temperance (WHM)
⢠Zoe (SGE)
The other type is written as 'HP recovery via healing actions.' Skills with this phrasing increase the amount of incoming heals on the target with this buff and the increase is applied to ALL heals, including oGCDs. Many of these skills come from non-healer roles, so it's helpful to know how they function.
Actions with this effect:
⢠Asylum (WHM | Players must be inside the bubble to receive buff)
⢠Protraction (SCH)
⢠Physis II (SGE | AoE buff)
⢠Krasis (SGE)
⢠Mantra (MNK | AoE buff)
⢠Nature's Minne (BRD)
⢠Thrill of Battle (WAR)
⢠Magick Barrier (RDM | AoE buff)
Gcds only
Mainly for the mitigation
And when you're down to gcd healing/to buff your adlo for deployment
Possibly.
Yes
6.2 will have new combat gear recipes
6.1 should introduce new tier of crafters and gatherers gears, which in turn is what you use to make 6.2 stuff. 6.1 stuff will be crafted
What materia should I be getting from Panda?
you mean the quest rewards?
doesn't really matter
most classes' stat priority is crit > det = DH
so get those if you want
i think you can pull 3-4 groups in 81 dungeon and they hit like a fucking truck
appending to this, can /hotbar action "name of action" [hotbar #] [slot #] be used on a shared hotbar?
I see, well iâll be on the lookout for these mysterious 3rd and 4th groups
Gotta make those healers suffer
Please donât
i seem to recall a similar situation in the 71 dungeon as well?
pulled too many polar bears đ
Dungeon designs since SB has been 2 groups, wall, 2 groups, wall, boss repeat
there really shouldnt be like.. a 3rd or 4th group
gonna ping @faint flare for this since you answered me last time
first pull of 79 dungeon
always feels like there's way more than two packs
itâs not always 2
Oh yeah that
Tbf, there is a wall for that first pull
I think thats one of those walls that can be blasted through without having to kill all the mobs
itâs usually 2 but iâm p sure there are instances of 3
iâll have to run 71/81 again to check
71 has 3 packs before 3rd boss
Well admittedly theres sometimes 1 mob straggling inbetween packs but i dont really consider it a pack
No idea what youâd call it
a pack
A pack implies more than one enemy
A pack of bears.. and pack of wolves⌠a pack of gremlins
I guess I could rephrase my question: can /hotbar make changes to the actions on a shared hotbar specifically?
No
Duty finder
They're normal modes
You PF for high end content
Everything around Gridania, so the starting city for archers/lancers/conjurers. I'm not sure what the German name for it is, the wiki only lists the English and the Japanese.
Not normal modes
Is there an option to set the title screen to always be a certain expansion pack?
Not without plugins
anyone happen to have the EW APM chart

Is anyone here really good with technology?
I have a question. Can I put materia on crafted 90 gear and still get the effects of materia if I was putting it on toem gear. I know itâs not gonna be as effective as it would be putting it on the toem gear but I kinda wanna have materia on my gear and just still waiting to get more toem (and sorry if I made it sound complicated or confusing. Iâm not good at explaining things)
It still raises stats, unless you hit the cap
Ok thank you^-^
you can pull out the materia too
Yeah, the only reason you could slot materia and not have it add to your stats is if you hit the internal stat cap for that gear piece.
but if it's tier 9 or 10 materia, they have a chance to be destroyed
I donât have a crafter to 90 so imma just have to spend gil XD
That's what I do lol
My highest level crafter is level 1
and it is going to stay that way
My highest crafter is 81
I only have 1 toem gear and thatâs the moonward casting XD for RDM
i've never augmented armor before, does it keep the materia on the original gear? or it entirely new
So Iâm trying to get good gear for my 71 gunbreaker. Which level 70 dungeon is the best? Or just looks the best?
No. When you augment gear, what's actually happening is you're turning in the unaugmented gear as "currency", essentially, to get the augmented version
so any materia you have in the gear at the time you turn it in will be lost
which means prior to gear augmentation, you should try to retrieve as much materia as you can
It does warn you about this
yeah but to be fair those warnings are like Terms of Service bulletins, no one reads that shit
I feel like it's a fair question lol
ah okay, just planning for the future
So which dungeon would be best?
None, get scaeven
Poetics :3
The 3 ones below
Where is The Black Shroud
the black shroud are the zones connected to the city of gridania
The forest area, youâve been there many times
the forest area
Everything around Gridania. Like how La Noscea is everything around Limsa, and Thanalan is everything around Ul'Dah ... which, I'm not sure why you censored Thanalan but there you go lol
Ahh okay
Can I turn off the health bar above NPC heads? For example, I'm targeting Tataru to talk about MSQ stuff and I see her HP bar. I dont remember seeing that before, and I just redownloaded ffxiv (new PC) so all of my settings are wrong :/
Where do I get the level 70 gear
what classes can use limp on pvp:?
kugane aetheryte
Or rhalgrs after beating 4.0
None. Limp is if you get hit while on a mount
To encourage not mounting up to get in/out
oh
I beat endwalker
If I'm trying to use the same glam set for multiple classes (e.g. Dragoon and Reaper), is there any way to glam their weapons separately other than actually keeping the weapons on hand and re-glamming them every time I replace the gear?
Glamour plates
Those let you glam weapons differently depending on what class you're applying it to? How?
By putting the weapon in the plate slot
Yes, but how do I do that for multiple classes on the same glam set?
I believe you that I can, but I've never seen the way to do it.
is crafted gear the only gear that can be overmelded?
That would be two separate glamour plates then. Every slot would be the same piece except the weapon
gg
yes
Okay. So there isn't actually a way to glam the weapons separately on the same set using plates?
That's a bit reassuring, at least.
I was worried I'd missed something massive.
just have the same base glam on the plate and then manually glam the weapons onto whatever youâre using for those classes
Yes. I was asking if there was a way other than doing that, and Vinyl said "glamor plates", so I assumed that was the other way.
Either that or you make 2 plates
if you're at astronomy tomestone cap, does turning in a khloe journal w/ one line to get 50 tomes give you nothing?
Is there a way to edit the chat window at the bottom left of the screen? On HUD settings I never saw an option to edit it đ°
Click and drag where it says general to move it
there's also a cog button at the bottom right of the chat window
!faq savageloot
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
Chest B: Head/Hand/Feet Coffer + Left-side upgrade material + Weapon upgrade material
Fourth Floor:
Chest A: Weapon Coffer + Mount
Chest B: Random Weapon + Chestpiece Coffer
Those donât have an option to move the chat
.
Yeah thatâs not an option for me
You canât click and drag?
if you are on a controller, you need to enter virtual mouse mode
Thanks Rhode
if I remember right, you press L1 and the select button
and then from there, you go towards the chat box with the cursor and then you hold R2 to simulate the right click
L1 + one of the button sticks
It just doesnât show up like everything else on my screen on the HUD options
Cause it doesn't
yeah it's one of the major things lacking on hud layout
Because you donât do it on the HUD menu
and since it's not on the hud menu, you cannot save different styles of chat boxes
and you need to manually adjust it per layout if you desire it
Which blows major donkey
Oh thatâs be nice! Itâs literally the only thing on the screen that isnât on there đ
hello, any way to increase dialouge text from NPC but keep other UI at 100% size?
150% UI is a bit cramp'd together
Use 150%
Use hudlayout to scale it all back down
hudlayout is the one where we have to do each UI one by one?
yep
ahhhh ok, i will play around it later
Tedious but
At least it exists
thanks
what should I spend astronomy tomes on?
Gear you need
you can cheat it
set your current hudlayout to 1, and then make a copy of it to hudlayout 2
also, pretty dumb question
but how do make character in JP DC Tonberry? System said i cant bcs its too crowded i assume?
change the size while you are on hudlayout 2
!status Tonberry
and then copy it back
It's congested do wait until SE removes it
@lone totem thanks for the instruction, i will try it later
oh so its not time gated thing, most forum i read said that i need to log in at a certain time frame, like very early morning
and then I copied my 100% layout from hudlayout 2 that I stored
That's for the temporary character lock
so now all the things I had at 100%, are now at 100% while all the elements I did not change are at 150%
It's not the same
a world being designated as "congested" will never have character creation open
until it is no longer flagged as "congested"
sadge
however, you can circumvent it by transferring to this world
as world transfers ignore congestion
however that requires $$
oh for a sec i thought you are talking about in game world transfer thru that aether-crystal thing
nah, not the visit system
the actual world transfer system through the mogstation
permanently changing your home world
iirc the cost is close to a month sub right
Are we aloud to download DPS meters? or is there one ingame that I can enable.
yeah it's like $10 per way
!faq act
Advanced Combat Tracker (ACT) can be used to view and record combat in real time to see player damage, healing, etc. ACT logs can then be uploaded to FFLogs to compare your performance with other players.
Please note this software is technically against the FFXIV Terms of Service and should only be used for personal improvement. Mentioning ACT/Parsing in-game, particularly to harass other players, is likely to result in punishment against your Square Enix account.
K, ty for info
This is probably referring to when the amount of players during server peak times was ridiculously high. The character creation engine uses the login servers, and so if there's a large queue to log into the game because of high active player population, both free trial logins and character creation are temporarily suspended.
"Congested" is a status SE applies to a server when they want to balance total server population away from certain servers and towards other ones. So you could have a server in a non-Congested status and still be unable to create characters if the current active population is very high, but even if a Congested server has a low or nonexisted login queue, that server still will not allow new characters or home world transfers of existing characters because of its Congested label.
thanks
Does Aymaht (spelling) the guy in Eulmore that sells lvl 80 poetics, only start selling them after you hit 80, or after you finish ShB? My wife's trying to spend down poetics but he's turning her away, she's only 76 tho
Poetics gear only unlocks after you finish the expansion. She needs to finish the Shadowbringers quest first.
follow up questions then, which OCE DC's world is most crowded rn? tried Sephirot, kinda empty on first area, Sophia is a bit better
I read somewhere Ravana was most populated (2 weeks old post in reddit), haven't tried creating a character there
There was a mention about Ravana being a raid server and Sophia as RP server, what do they mean?
thanks
The server designations mean relatively little. People who hang out on Reddit and want to do raid/endgame content are clustered on Ravana, people who hang out on Reddit and want to RP are on Sophia. I have heard Ravana's still the most populated, but I don't know for sure; I don't have access to their numbers or a Materia alt.
I imagine it's partially people wanting to assemble like-minded FCs, which aren't cross-world.
then, what is RP server?
RP as in role playing right?
what do they mean by that, that's a new term for me
it's a server where people are pretending to be their characters
everything from pretending to be a bartender to doing straight up goldshire stuff
and are encouraged to act as if they are actually their character
hence, "role playing"
so some dude might be playing a paladin and spamming the chat with By the light! every time they talk
its not exclusive by any means. just the % might be triple than normally
or you have numerous people RPing NSFW shit
As a follow-up to the other answers you were given, you might also see less people in general world areas because quite a few OCE players either transferred their current at-endgame characters to OCE, or potentially made brand new characters and boosted them to avoid the long process of going back through the story to get where they already were, mostly to get the free gold and game time.
That's the gif that got me auto muted

quick question, how much "lore" important are bozja and eureka quests ? never done any
Theyâre optional, but theyâre neat
am i missing something really cool or?
theres a mention of bozja in post ShB too
eureka gives a lot of lore about krile and her grandfather galuf
yeah im doing that quest rn, with ||gaius and cid|| etc etc
Of course there is, thatâs when you unlock it
bozja is all about the resistance efforts of the hrothgar
where do i go to get the bozja one? if you guys dont mind me asking
sounds cool

without mods, no
just go to novice network or shout in limsa
