Yeah thats legacy
Is that a bad thing?
Not necessarily
nah
All launches the same game
Newer just has a cleaner ui
Well I am using the 30 odd bit version if that helps

wait, does sks and sps reduce your auto attack delay too?
and increase your dot damage
!action riddle of wind
Wow sks does more than I thought it did
too bad it fucks your rotation horribly on some classes.
It's not really a big gain tbh, that DoT and auto-attack delay reduction
You usually get enough sps or sks to fit another gcd in your buffs windows
You'd get more juice just from having SkS/SpS to the speed tier you want, and then crit
Yeah
each 40 sks is a 0.4% damage increase
to dots/auto attack delay reduction
Meanwhile crit is like
#general-discussion @fleet steppe
true
do you just dump druochole into nothing if you're a sage, capped on resources and nothing bad is about to happen soon? because otherwise the mana balance becomes kinda tight
Yes if you need the mana
mp management is not hard at all on sage 
huh somebody added the misspelling synonym to it
most of your spells generate mp
I usually pop the not sacred soul instead
It think it would be at lower piety tiers
It's called fuzzy text logic
coming from AST who can just press absolutely anything and never run out of mana, i was surprised to see myself at 6k mana in the first quest duty, but that's because i was sitting on resources as there wasn't much to heal
Ast is spoiled for mp now so yeah gotta form some lucid muscle memory
hi - i've levelled bot and mining to 20. Should I get all my crafters up to 20 before using the firmament to lvl too?
Is there a way to check your current triple triad tournament win/lose?
Crafters have to be at 15 to use firmament and don't neglect your job quests
i mean for matches in an ongoing tournament
The board in the saucer?
Idk, I haven't done tournaments but that seems likely
so use the firm to lvl and then go back for job quests aas they become avaailable?
should i get ALL my crafters to 15 and do them at the same time?
the board only tells you if you're top 20
peferably
It's more efficient but do what you want
thanks very much š
Have you tried gold saucer menu?
Zoe Prognosis seems pretty weak, do you basically only Zoe Diagnosis and at 90 Zoe Pneuma?
Your shields scale on the amount you heal so afaik zoe eurkrasian diagnosis etc will have bigger shields
@warm snow did you say not to ignore the job quests because they give great xp or for some other reason?
Skills, exp, gear, story
cool thx
Cul stormblood quest is probably my favourite
And your stormblood quests have some of your strongest skills
do shields become larger if you cast them on a target who has a +healing received buff
Yes
neat
My static does that in P2S so we can solo tank it

unlikely to rise with 6.1 tbh since no new raid tier, though the ultimate's release may see a bit of a spike
6.2 there's a better chance of prices rising since new raid tier, new crafted gear to pentameld
for crafting absolutely, as there will be a new set for the left side for lvl 90
combat gear might see a small increase since more people are just playing on a new patch in general
alright, thx for the info!
so, you cannot glam one-handed staff on a two-handed staff?
no
dont think so...wait did we used to play bns together? i recognize that name
one-handed whm/blm weapons are a relic of 2.0
1 handed staves also don't exist after ARR
yeah I did
and burger about the glam
long time no see. hey
hi, and don't discuss good old BnS days in this channel š
where do i find the "standard" machinist gear? want to buy bc there's no lv30 weapon on market
Thereās guns available for sale in the place you do the quests
Opposite stephanvinien iirc thereās a vendor
They should give you a gun at 30 though
ohh ironworks?
ironworks is level 50 gear so it's not gonna help you right now anyway
they give you a free level 30 gun, other than that you have to find level 30 aiming gear from somewhere
The uhh whatever they call it workshop in ishgard, has a weapons vendor in that place but as said above a 30 weapon should come with the quest
thanks

I have a question and yes I know this is an outdated hotbar but this is the only one I can find close to end walker. How do I put some of the skills on my hotbar. Some of them just say āThis cannot be assigned to a hotbarā like Iām trying to put tornado kick , and Elixir field on my hotbar but it just says that
Strike the enemy with a technique fueled by the power of your Beast Chakra.
The technique used is determined by the number of different types of Beast Chakra opened.
1 Beast Chakra Type: Elixir Field
2 Beast Chakra Types: Celestial Revolution
3 Beast Chakra Types: Rising Phoenix 3 Beast Chakra and Both Nadi: Phantom Rush
Tornado kick is low level phantom rush
does anyone know what the ToS says about people who moved to a unsupported country? i moved from the us to taiwan and now my 'address' isn't type-able in the NA account management system anymore and im left with using my old address. also, i know that recently SE banned a huge number of Chinese players from the global version of the game. How did SE find out they were chinese, by looking at the player's chat history? Does this mean i am at risk of getting banned if i type in mandarin chinese?
Hey guys! Iām a returning player and I just stumbled upon the Empyreum. I got really excited since my guild needs a bigger house but the plots of land arenāt available. Do we have a set date for when they go up for sale?
6.1 will open ishgard housing
new housing area comes with 6.1
Which is estimated april
Thank you!!
How do i go about getting something REALLY strong.
Like max strength kinda strong
I want to cap off my main lvl 90
Ans be done with gear
Do savage raids for the best gear
I see i see
Bis is a.mix of upgrade tome gear and savage drops
Tome upgrades are savage only for now
If they say they can't be placed on your hotbar it means they can't be placed on your hotbar.
These skills have some other skill icon transform into it
The joke here is that youāll never be truly done with gear
:(
You'll only be done with gear til 6.2
When 6.2 launches there will be a whole new tier of gear
It's a every 6 month thing
like the ilvl requirement for the third Alliance Raid tier will be much higher
6.1, even, will bring new gear
Well for combat jobs bis won't change
it's just how mmos are. you will always be getting better gear
Plus the difference between crafted and BiS is like what 5% total stronger?
Unless we have some specifically shitty rings again
God please no
Did you use crafted in 5.2 BiS?
Who doesnāt want chest from p4s?
I know about 5.2 bis
Since when do you wear pants on your chest?

Like no matter the set ast doesn't need piety any more
would a crafted healing ring and 83ex ring or raid ring be better?
I dont know what these mean but I assume that piety is a healer thing?
Mana regen
Ohhh
No
You can't compensate for 20 ilevels of main stat
And then determination?
Det is OK, Crit is better
Damage and heal increase
what? 83ex is i580
I get it now. The rest make sense
Raid ring is 600
Alright so, I am currently at level 80 with my main class, and at the end of 4.0 (as in, just finished the level 70 quest), now, I need my character at level 90 to do some farms easier (stuff like the Rathalos and what not)
My question is, what would be the best way to get to 90? Farm the level 69 dungeon? PoD/HoH? Just brute force main story?
yea no one really gives a fuck about normal raid gear
Msq
it's just a stepping stone to tome or savage gear, or they just stop there if they aren't planning on doing savage
Just keep doing msq until 90 then buy the 580 crafted gear @sick light , thatāll get you to a great farming point
the normal raid (limbo) legs are crit det though iirc
You need to finish 6.0 to get better gear than 580 anyways
Oh I already got the gear (gifted from a friend) just need the way to get to the level to actually use it š
Welp, guess I'll finish the post SB stuff and then just bee line MSQ, thanks!
!faq altlvlguide
Thanks!
How do i say this with my bad english
Is the thing where you cant enter dungs 10 lvls lower than yours true
On leveling roulette
Lol no
if you are a premade team of 4 players
:(
Only in premade, I forget 
I dont wanna do satasha at lvl 60 reeeeeeee
you can select 'limited leveling roulette" and guarantee that the dungeon will be within like 6 levels of your lowest player
But if randomly doing leveling roulette
then yes, there's a chance you get shoved into toto-rak at 89 like that SGE in mine just today
Iād rather sas than copperbell mines
That's why sometimes do leveling roulette in PF, so they can enable limited
If I change GCs, I know I start at rank 1, but does that mean I have to redo all the various reps like running dungeons, 5 squad missions, etc.? And will I have access to my squadron/barracks immediately or only after ranking up enough?
you get access to your squadron at their previous levels immediately after unlocking squadrons
but iirc you still have to do the missions to rank up further anyway
but you still have to rank up the same way up until you reach the rank to unlock things
Got it, thanks! Hmm, do you get to keep your chocobo minion?
No, I forget the name but itās like Flame Hatchling
minions arent taken away from you
You keep those
That would be a dealbreaker for me
Exist weapon skins on ffxiv?
!faq glamour
'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'
Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.
'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'
Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.
yes
all of them
i only see 2 skins on website
much better place to look for skins
but the skin dont give atributs right?
Glam has no stats
they dont affect what you're wearing
can be in the best gear in the game and look like whatever else that job can use
!iglam sindri lux
but the skins are expensive on the game?
lol
š
Anything in the game is a āskinā
some are, but theres plenty that are a grind for a different reason
none of this can be bought, gotta farm it yourself
glam is the true endgame
im new btw srry if i dont know mutch xd
people do a lot of things at 90
Or they donāt, up to them
Lmao, pretty much all the good skins are in game not cash shop
I won't say all cuz subjective
But imo all
cash shop is pretty limited since you have to both buy the game and maintain a sub
Cash shop glam is pretty much just fanservice stuff like costumes from other ff games
ye, im lvl 32 so im leveling and idk mutch about the weapon skins
What's the daily duty finder instance limit? Is it 100?
There isnāt a limit on duty finder
Youāre looking at your leve allowances

so the only worth think to buy with cash is the mounts?
nah
Subjective
There is, just really high you'll never meet it in regular game play to prevent bots infinitely farming stuff
all mounts fly at the same speed, and are locked in game until a certain point for all players
theres also multi seat mounts obtainable in game
So in short, isn't it worth buying anything at the store? š
Yea
No P2W except Level up thingies... Buy what you want but there's no advantages except saving time on MSQ/Leveling a Job/Retainer.
not too much, the game itself is already somewhat expensive. the devs dont need the cash shop to live so its just got some basic stuff
Worth it if you like the look of it 
But there's plenty in game to use as glamour, like literally everything can be used as glamour
if exists better weapon skins ingame im so excited to lvl up
Again itās all subjective
I'm pretty certain there is
white mage
I think 100, but I can't find if it's for a single instance or for all instances in general
there is not
And I just said that youāre probably looking at your leve allowances
The limit is really high
You won't encounter it in regular game play
Unless you're bot level spamming stuff
I'm not talking about that no
I think it's 100 right?
omg
So it's high
lvl?
hey is there any way to remove the materia above and not bottom ? or am i doomed (according to the message yes, but i want to be sure)
There seems to be one for sure
fk :(
I think it's 100, I can def see myself hitting it with some of the stuff I want to do
look at my mistake and laugh
It says they got a penalty, thatās a different thing
That's the message it says when you hit 100
This does not indicate anything.
Yes because one person's random comment is clearly the answer
I'm not saying that's the answer but most people seemed to agree there's a limit
I'm pretty certain there is a limit
And your comment has the same amount of merit from my eyes
.
Regardless no reasonable person would do 100 dungeons in a day.... that's like doing dungeons nonstop for 20 hours
They completed the dungeons, it took 20+ hours
You don't have to complete them to hit the limit from what I've seen
what stuff do you want to do 
even people doing something like tam-tara unsync for relic don't hit that cap
you need to run a lot of dungeons
man's making a bot farm
to hit it
Naw

There's a dungeon that gives a lot of gil in the beginning
No?

No to what?

never heard of that
Maybe I'm just a pioneer idk lmao
there are better ways of making gil than running something like lost city ad nauseum
if you wanted to farm dungeons for money
why would you spend so much time running dungeons for the gil reward??
it'd be far better to do something like coils and sell the orchestrion rolls
that go for over 100k each
From my calcs it seems you can make like 380k an hour from the dungeon
depending on server
you can make more than that thru other methods
Dude just play the MB if you really need cash
im like 80% sure msq gives you more gil than that which is what the bots spam
or gathering
I like the mindless grind of a dungeon for guaranteed gold
380k an hour is pretty abysmal compared to finding a niche on the market and making use of it
I'm sure
But this is guaranteed
And mindless
Can do while watching crime documentaries lmao
you can still make better money than running dungeons
so would farming the orchestrion roll be
go level gatherers
and sell mats
same amount of mindlessness and its pretty gauranteed
Ik ik I'm not saying this is the supreme method or anything I just find it interesting
because there's always lazy crafters buying raw mats
either way even if you're farming dungeons its kind of unlikely you will hit the dungeon cap
unless you're botting
Nah because you only stay in the dungeon for around a minute
So I think it's pretty likely
What are you talking about
Sure but we're just talking not really any issues I think right?
The vault
this channel is not for talking

this channel is for questions
This isn't a discussion channel
if you wanna discuss it you can take it to #general-discussion or #beginner-lounge
#questions-and-help, your question was answered now git
is what
If you hit the cap
Clearly all of them, because thatās how penalties work
Is the cap for that dungeon or for all dungeons, like if I hit the cap after 100 of a certain dungeon
Well it wasn't very clear to me that's why I asked
From what you said it doesn't even seem like you were aware of the cap so idk if it's that clear lmao
the other DF penalty affects all dungeons so if i had to guess then it probably affects all dungeons as well
Yeah that would make sense if it worked like that
Just can't find a definite answer anywhere
Thanks for the help though
Does anyone have the rewards list for the Nier event? I canāt get on my pc yet ;_;
Theyāre alliance raids, you get typical alliance raid stuff. Glam, minions, music
its not an event
Ahh okay okay
but you still turn in tomes or whateve right?
nope
no
They drop directly
theyre drops from the raid
You never could
OHH ok thanks guys!
because they're alliance raids and work similarly
First nier raid has a free 2b costume tho
hello guys! is there someone on here, who knows his way around macros? or knows a plays where I could ask about it? š
you can ask here
Rule #1: don't use macros for combat skills
!faq macrogcd
Macroing GCDs adds up to lost casts overtime, significantly harming your potential.
Check this video for a striking dummy comparison:
https://youtu.be/VgpUCgExvbA
its not about combat macros ^^
if that wasnt the question then ask away!
Kk, ask away
I want to do something with the ui but its not working
Macros canāt do that. Pretty sure
Macros can hang your ui a bit
depends what they mean
It can also swap between your 4 ui slots via macro
so my goal is to get the macro to hide my skill hotbars and to show 2 hotbars with emotes
but my macro does only one or the other
/hotbar display 1
Will toggle display of hotbar 1
So put that on a button and it will on/off it each click
/hotbar copy ROG 1 current 5
/hotbar display 1 [on/off]
/hotbar display 2 [on/off]
/hotbar display 3 [on/off]
/hotbar display 4 [on/off]
this is what I came up with, but it only does the first part of it, if I switch it around it hides the hotbars but doesnt do the copy command
it only does the first line?
Does your macro actually say "[on/off]" ? Or are you putting "on" or "off" ?
you also cant have empty lines afaik
chocobo raising basically means massive exp boost as you are lvling it up ?
I have level 55 mining and level 50 botany, and I've been using leves to get them up, but also learned about the diadem today. What levels should I use diadem up to?
Diadem is for crafters mainly
Gotcha
does anyone know what level u need to be for the nier resurrection raid?
That has nothing to do with FF14
And nier resurrection is something else entirelt
Thatās all the mobile game
Done
How do u turn of players name my whole screen is full

what does G1 in G2 out mean in EW EX2?
Group 1/2
all healers are fine.
all jobs are balanced, pick the one you think you enjoy the most or enjoy the most
Does anyone know if I can still get Bitter Memories for the "Will to Resist" quest in daily levelling roulette even if I don't do it with the class that accepted the quest?
Yes
Awesome, thanks a ton!
Same goes for all shadowbringers relic steps
how can i unlock the novice network chat ?
I think be a sprout or mentor?
oh
being a sprout is not enough, you need to be invited by a mentor to join
You gotta be invited to it
This is server question so I doubt anyone can answer but is there like an eta when certain servers are gonna allow character creations again. My friends have characters on leviathan and I wanna play with them but Leviathan isn't allowing character creation.
If Leviathan is officially marked as congested then that status is only changed manually by SE on patches
The next patch would be 6.1? So that's around april
!status Leviathan
It's congested so wait until SE removes it
You can play on any other world on Primal and then play with them
Ah thats rough. Thanks for the answer tho
What do I lose in terms of playing with them if I choose to play on another Primal server?
if they're in an FC, you can't join
You also can't join a wedding
You can buy a server transfer later if they change status and transfer over. But unless u really want to join the same FC (guild) there's almost no restrictions in normal play
Hey guys anyone know how I can make my HUD look like this?
I've used the HUD editor but its very confusing to use
I'm going after the prospero eel and I can't seem to fish in the area i'm supposed to get it is there perhaps a type of fishing unlock I missed ?
the hud editor is very straightforward.
it's pretty well designed yeah
Not much of a fisher by any means but you may want to triple check the bait you're using
I mean the cast icon actually never lights up
then you're not in a place that you can fish
Guys, how are kinna weapons unlocked. I cleared lv 100 potd and the npc still doesn't trade em
okay I'll keep looking around then
Do i need to lvl my aether gear first or something
No, well to get the gear you do but
it's 59/51
It costs 9 aether grips for a kinna
oh I do note the -3 so I need to go deeper ?
Yeah but the npc doesn't show me the purchase menu
there must be a point to drop in I'm missing
were u in the wrong tab?
Guys I have a question. My friend wanted yo play in tonberry but its congested. Isit the same as last time where we can still create during non peak hour or has ff14 changed it and doesn't allow character creation on the server
Where can I find ppl who decrate houses for a gil fee
That's different from temporary character lock
Congested means it's permanently locked until SE removes it
So means he can't create no matter what even during non peak hour?
Permanently locked means permanently locked
The best he can do is make a character on that dc and play together cross-world. Sadly that means you can't be in the same fc but other than that you can do pretty much everything else together.
Ahhh cool. I can live with that
Thanks alot guys
what is the ideal blm rotation at lvl 50? i feel like what im currently doing does like no damage
!faq blmleveling
what does uh b3 b1 f3 f1 f3p and such mean?
so for my lvl range it is just spamming b3 then t3 then f3 then f1 until i run out of mp right?
Yes
Fire 1 until empty, swap with b3 and apply thunder then swap back when mana is full
can you turn something from your inventory into a collectable?
No
Well time to fish again
if you consider crafting something using your materials from the inventory into a collectable, then yes
gathering collectables no
helloo finishing up arr, grinding extremes, looking at the old endgame stuff. is it worth getting your gear ilvl130 before HW? ty ^^
Yeah, itās really easy to do
it will help
Yes, especially weapon, chest and legs
plus you will likely be able to reuse it on alt jobs, and you'll be swimming in poetics anyway
(also retainers)
ooh okay im at ~120 now so not too much more looks like
if you're at 120 just grab the weapon if you're low on poetics
good tip, i have the wep, just need some jewelry and legs
you'll start getting better stuff around level 55 content
thats good, i noticed the lvl50 raid/dungeon gear is less than 130 so that's welcome for sure
hey, i'm in the middle of levelling up warrior. dark knight is my first tank. im just trying to make sure all my controller buttons are roughly in the same space. would you personally say holmgang is closer to the living dead or the blackest night?
ty for the help ā¤ļø
130 is best in slot for level 50 except for weapon which can be improved to 135 from a few difficult sources
living dead of course
it's your invuln, like LD. Every tank has one
hello folks and a ?
how far am i getting to idlyshire and i just got into ishgard with a few quests into already ????
note that if you cast holmgang while targeting an enemy and that enemy dies, your holmgang will end prematurely. this wont happen if you cast it on yourself
idyllshire is level 58 msq
i think
so i got like 200 to 300 quests lol thx you
What no
nah, 50-58 will go pretty fast, maybe like 40 or 50 quests
hm, 79 quests just counted
i did this so i can see still a lot of quests and the v on the far left is where im at
Dude thatās honestly hurting you more
Just play the game, donāt worry about when each quest happens
It would have been easier just to leave open the tab for the page you copied the list from.
Feels like you're trying to reinvent the wheel with a less functional wheel.
live in the moment of the msq not the later stuff
I know Excel is cool but you've basically made a glorified Word document with automatic margins and grid lines to replace a perfectly good web page.

oooooh~ lol
What do that guilds do? Like carpenter ect
Crafting
They're completely separate jobs
You unlock the jobs from there
Do I get to cut trees down?
For botanist
No thatās botany
Tf is that
It's botany
The job that gathers materials from plants
I'm a new player and unlocked squadrons not too long ago. Should I ignore it? I've heard the system is being removed?
I'm very new to the game
It's not being removed
those crafters have various type of craftmanship and depending what you work on say culinary is food that you can make for your class such like hp or mp restore or what ever
that is just to name a very few of the crafters
I'm trying to get my launcher to run and it keeps hitting me with: file access failed during version check [11018][19900][2] is there a fix to this?
It will soon be adjusted and expanded. Slightly different, same function.
Squadrons still provide some passive benefits. It costs very little time investment tbh, send them on a mission once a day and let them level up in the background, basically.
No itās not going away any time soon. They are actually changing it to make it better, not removed. Also they have little to no impact on the game overall so ignore it for now if itās too much and come back when you have less to learn. Itās really not that complicated
How do I recruit my first squadron units? I went to the recruitment person and didn't get any options
Do challenge logs
So what does it mean to do challenge logs? I opened challenge logs and it seems like there are a million in there. Are there certain ones I should be doing to unlock squadron units?
Do them
Sorry for noob questions lol
Complete them
how do I get a shortcut to the launcher on my desktop? every time I try to copy the file to my desktop it says it can't access the file
It's an rng chance on completion of any challenge log
Ok so doesn't matter which one just do them all
go to your window pop up and then on the list go down to where ff is at
Any of the logs has a chance to grant a recruit on completion, and different categories of log may give different recruits.
gotcha, I figured it out, copying the file made the error pop up, but copying the shortcut and putting that on desktop works
thanks!
perfect, thank you, sorry for the newbish question
yw
btw if you still cant work that short cut and you can pin the app to your w-task bar for easy clicking
is the exp from pixie tribe still effective from level 80 up?
Yes
@modest igloo its worth to buy the colector edition?
do u just need to do the 1st EW hunt quest to unlock the ability to buy X materia, or do u have to finish the 90 one?
first one should be enough
Whats max MGP? 9,999,999 right? Or has it risen any?
IIRC you can choose to buy the collector's items later in the FFXIV online shop, so you don't have to get it now. (Just double check that you can buy it first before you make a decision.)
Are there anymore suit or tux options other than best man, wedding suit and the school uniform? Sorry don't know the correct names for all these things
believe it is still the same, i don't recall mention of them raising it

Best game resolutions for a 3840 x 2400 resolution computer? Everything looks either giant or way too small
Collector's edition includes the base game and addons(like a mount and a weapon glam, just cosmetics)
i have the base game already
So just get Endwalker regular
BTW correct this, collector's edition does not includes base game
i see, but im lvl 30 atm so i think ill w8 for lvl 60 to buy the dlc
wait so if i got collectors edition I would have all the dlc?
Which collectors
Endwalker by itself includes all the DLCs
I got the game from steam so what would I buy to get endwalker and everything else?
any hunt linkshells for crystal?
@boreal storm so would I just get this?
Thatās what I said
mb i didnt know what EW stood forš
ARR = A Realm Reborn, HW = Heavensward, SB = Stormblood, SHB = Shadowbringer, EW = Endwalker
Does anyone know how to unlock the vath beast tribe quests? I did the first one but the second one isnt appearing

I did that one, I can't get adventurers dont get cold feet
Rank up
I dont wanna sound dumb, but what does that mean

how long would you say 5.5 and 5.55 take if i dont skip anything? trying to get to the 1st EW town so i can spend these nuts
ShB uses nuts too
Are Red Mage's weaponskills physical or magic damage? I'd assume physical but they consume Manafication stacks
Description
Deal an attack = physical
generally if its says "unaspected/<elemental> damage" its magical
Deal element damage = magic
if it just says "deals an attack" its physical
thanks
already got the shb minions, mount, and orch roll...the materia seems basically worhtless, so wanted to save for EW X materia
Well it has a "several cutscenes will play in sequence"
So it'll be a bit
And a long solo duty
yeah i figured
You can definitely finish it in a couple hours but there's a good bit of cutscenes
yeah like 4-5 hours is enough i hope?
Should be enough, could probably do in 3 but it's been a while
Also counts on you not sucking in the solo duty
i failed the 70 DRG quest like 2x so im good kekW
should i just accept all squadron recruits? Are some better than others?
class can be important early on, as diff classes have diff stat distributions
also race if you wanna go into maximizing racial affinities, but thats also later
Only difference is look and class but you can change classes later with an item
If you donāt have 8 people yet just grab em
and then i can change them out later?
yea
Yes
do you eventually get all of them?
No, you can only have 8 at a time
You can only have 8
There's a list of them on the wiki, by class and acquisition.
So I heard there is gonna be some graphical updates. Do these things only effect those with max settings and good gaming pc or will budget pc playing on lower graphics settings still see an improvement?
We don't know
Other than its happening and they're experimenting with stuff
It's aimed as an expansion thing
So it's very early days
They said two things:
- They will be attempting to allow the broadest range of computer/console specs to play the game smoothly as they can; and they noted they will not be pulling PS4 support
- They will have to update their minimum system requirements alongside the graphical update package rollout

That said, the quality of the downscale from lower graphics settings is directly related to the quality of the original data. So if you play on lower graphics settings right now ... yes you will see an improvement, most likely, even if you still won't be seeing exactly what the Chaddest of Chad McChaddersons sees.
weird question: if I transfer from a non congested world to a preferred world, is it free
no
damn
only congested to preferred or any server to a new world is free
How to tank if I don't know dungeon layout? I decided to try tanking for a change and from leveling roulette I got a dungeon I didn't remember at all and I kept getting my party lost; I felt so stupidd
You do have a map
They're all straight lines after arr
Great to hear that
Didn't really help in Haukke Manor with all keys and whatnot
just say 'hey, I'm new. point me in the right direction', and unless it's a party full of sprouts someone will know the way
the worst that happens is you waste a few minutes killing some extra trash
in the crystalline mean quest
line
if i start it with one job, does it lock to that job and i cant progress it with an other ?
It shouldn't
The only locks would be the fact that they're split up for certain crafters/gatherers
hey guys i just unlocked the endwalker raid but i dont have the enough item lvl to do it, what/where is the best place to get it?
you should have your artifact gear
Aphromism tome gear and dungeon accessories
or wait, is the base 570 ilvl?
Is there a good place I can check for when Skyrise Celebration Fetes are coming up next that doesn't involve actually going to the Firmament in game?
so up to 70 role quests and then crystalline mean -> studium ?
nice
buy a few pieces of classical i580 from marketboard
some pieces are dirt cheap, like under 15k
Ty guys š
so only endwalker gemstone traders are worth unlocking or is there value for literally all of them
The orchestrion rolls from the SHB vendors might have good value since theyāre not current content anymore

Also various furniture
does Tortured Memory of the Dying only come from z2 in South Bozja?
ty
Continuation from the shadowbringers role quest for very large lore
so it kinda expands/goes deep in shadowbringer MSQ ?
It continues where the role quest finisher finished it
And involves the white robe boy who's in the rising stones
huh... hmm
oh i know who you mean
are unreal trials locked entirely or something ?
The next is coming in 6.1 yeah
oh hmm
||Ultima|| unreal
trying to figure out why my friend isn't able to unlock guildleves /guildhests
has inns unlocked
||https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Content_Unlock|| this is saying theyre grouped per zone and spirithold broken etc, has done them all
ive tried queuing into the first one under the armor to see if had it
the levemete npc doesnt have any leves to do and gives no dialogue option
the "leves of x" are not showing up
have them go back to their starting city and see if there's a leve quest at the inn there
okay ill just run them to each main city and see
it'd be the levemete npc per city right
you can just have them look in the character profile, to see which is their starting city
rather than running them thru all 3
the levemete npc is near the innkeeper
you can keybind the different hud layouts to swap between them
character profile on lodestone?
oh how do u do that? :0
no, in game
with /hudlayout ?
Press C, 2nd tab
in the keybind menu, forget which exact section the hud layout is
and then in /hudlayout itself you can manually set up 4 different layouts
i mean lodestone works too
but i figured you're already in game with them
so easier to just ask them to open the character info and check there rather than lodestone but whatever works
will squadron members die or fail if i pick a mission thats too high of level?
They canāt enter dungeons if theyāre below the requirements
Failing means you just get nothing
You get some exp but thatās it
is there any downside to me just spamming ice or fire spells on thaumaturge? im not a blm yet
Yes
like without switching in between
Ice is shit damage
All fire = no mp
ice and fire has the same potency tho
You have 80% more dmg while on Astral fire
!buff astral fire
On all fire spells
fire phase increases you damage but using ice spells will cancel your fire phase
oh
ice phase restores MP so yes spamming only one element is not good
Your ice spells are just for regenning mana so you can swap back to fire for high damage spells
That's the core loop
Please donāt be an ice mage
Progressing through EW, at which ilvl should I replace my BIS gear from SHB?
(there are some weirdos who somehow found a no ice spells rotation thanks to paradox but you ain't there yet)
Itās a meme thatās the laughing stock of blms
Lv85 dungeon/story is better
Thank you so much ā£ļø
84 coffer gear from MSQ rewards also
If you're melded full bis with savage gear you can somewhat push and argue somewhat for keeping it but definitely replace at the 87 dungeon
Appreciated thank you āŗļø
so i finished the lvl 50 msq and there were alot of cutscenes and credits (trying not to use story spoilers). Am I in Heavensward now?
Nope
Not until you get the giant title screen in the cutscene
You're in post arr if you just did castrum and praeotirum
so they just have a bunch of credits in the middle of a game?
oh icic
so now i'm in post story ARR but not yet in heavensward
at least I can fly!
X.0 and X.3 are the credit patches
so i can't quite figure out how to fly higher and lower on pc controls. It told me when i first unlocked it and now i can't find it in the settings
anyone remember the default keybinds?
Space is up. I believe down is a multi-keypress one, possibly control-shift or control-space.
ok thanks
Alternatively you can just press z to drop

how hard is it toget 1,000,000 MGP?
kinda want the fenrir mount
but ive never been to gold saucer before
how long would that usually take?
You only really have to do stuff weekly
Challenge log and fashion report are the two big earners and theyāre just once weekly
Can do daily cactpot but thatās very low effort
where was that guide for fashion report?
and do people just buy what they need for that or do most long term players just have stockpile of stuff
is bozja 80-89 a bad idea if i'm dps?
It's neither bad or good. It's just an option.
So I was tanking Hominister Switch with SGE. I'm wearing mostly Scaevan & Crytptlurker stuff right now so I thought I'd be set. However I found that my heals direct or through Kardia were weak af and it was impossible for the appropriately geared PLD to mitigate enough and we died a few times because of my weak heals. I mean, I know how to play this class, but I felt so weak in there compared to the other content I've done on this class.... Any guidance on wtf I did wrong?
hmmmm, do i have other options besides spamming highest lvl dungeon?
Nope
Additional levelling methods come in later patches
Ie the expansion beast tribes and deep dungeon/side content
Scaevan and cryptlurker? Cryptlurker is lv 80, scaevan is 70
it was a lvl 71 dungeon
Anyway your kardion heals arenāt very powerful, theyāre just very small sustain assistance comparable to regen or SCH fairy embrace
so in pack pulls I should be expected to keep up with Diagnosis Spam? Because I went that route after the first wipe and it didnt change the outcome of the next large pull :<
As SGE you have mitigation tools as well as the ability to use eukrasian diagnosis to shield the tank as you run between pulls
No diagnosis spam
Diagnosis without eukrasia = cure 1 or physick
You basically donāt use it
You use eukrasian diag if you need gcd heals
But before that you wanna go through your oGCDs and addersgall spenders
Remember that AoE abilities are still useful on single target
For example physis and kerachole
I was doing it like...
Kardia on Tank
Diagnosis Eukr on tank
Taurachole on tank
Physis 2
Ixachole & Druochole along with Diagnosis spam until I ran out of Addersgall
Ixochole though is only for AoE
its an oGCD heal and I needed it because my GCD heals couldnt keep up
I usually start with kerachole on the first pull
Use Another Druchhole then
No, druochole then
Ixochole is only for AoE
oh good point, so thats something I could change...
!action druochole
Also fucking use hamia
!action ixochole
druochole doesnt feel like a 600 heal if I'm being honest
And Soteria
Soteria would've been useless because at that point I wasn't using any kardia heals
Taurochole is stronger but you donāt want to waste part of the mitigation uptime by overwriting kerachole with it or vice versa
Physis into Taurchole after they lose some hp...Hamia before heal buff falls off, throw Soteria in somewhere. Druchhole as necessary
aight I'll see how the next run goes. Felt like I was drowning rapidly this last run. Obviously not a good look when the tank has to switch to small pulls...
for BLU, does seeing the spell cast more increase ur chance of getting it
No

Sync duties to guarantee the spell for dungeons/trials
Is anyone on Shiva that can help me with coil of bahamut trun 1 ? In need of a party been waiting for an hour in duty finder
Use party finder
is it possible at all to make a new alt on aether?
No sane person ques for coils cause you'll never clear them
No
Congested = permanently locked until SE removes it
ah shoot, any word of when they'll unlock it?
I am that's not the porblem
Earliest would be 6.1 if they deem the population spread enough
you can't be using party finder and duty finder at the same time
lol
they're two separate systems
^
Plus most people love it when they see Unsync + bonus for free poetics in party finder
Only need 1 lv90
Nope can't find a party for first coil
you make the party
and wait for people to join
no one signs up for coils in duty finder because it forces sync and 8 people
you're far more likely some bored level 90 joins and carries you through party finder
Rememberin to type unsync and Bonus in the party list description
Ok thx

do i have to wear the anima weap all fight for light farming? or can i just equip it when i exit
Need it on for kill
^
you will likely need it on all the time if you farm a boss such as Alexander Savage
time to give up on that grind XD
part of the reason why we recommend being max lvl when you do old relics
as having it equipped the whole time as a lv90 means your its negligible on your dmg
i mean im lvl 90 but im still not wanting to do that
you're going to deleted everything regardless
seems like no one does the light farm parties these days
for like 80 runs
could always just do a few a day instead of bumrushing it in one go
running around in uldah as a starter alt right now, i have chat unlocked but compared to my usual world (mateus) there's almost no one in uldah? its like a ghost town... is this normal?
You start in a solo instance
ah yeah im not in the instance anymore since i saw like, 2 other players
but aside from that theres no one else
Everyone hangs in limsa mainly unless you're on balmung where people actually go to uldah
Most people hang out near the marketboard of main cities
even teh aetheryte and sapphire exchange are empty?
Which is the 2nd section of Ulādah
mateus/balmung are the two notable RP servers so they tend to be a bit more active in the other starting cities
yeah the aetheryte had no one except 1 person
I can't run a duty while having a party finder up, can I?
nope
So there's no way I can run a duty and allow people to come and go as they want?
Correct
In which channel can I search for people on Aether to spam dungeons with
Oh well, ty
In game pretty much

Is it better to farm shb relic mats throguh bozja front or through the alternative way (alliance raid, fates, dungeons)
Depends on what you call better
preference
Doing things outside of bozja does not give mettle, for one
why is it called 'Unlimited Blade Works' for Confetior combo? I don't see that name in the skills or traits...
Can I use a replica weapon for the start of the HW relic questline, or does it have to be my actual ARR relic?
it has the be the actual zeta
The replicas don't have the same effects, right? So if I wanted the glow and such, I would have to do the ARR relic all over again?
Thus it might be best to just do the crystal farming?
the replicas are just statless versions of the relic
so yes, it would have the glow assuming the replica you bought was a stage with glow
oh, there are replicas for each stage, then?
That's a relief!
Thanks for the info ^^
you should turn in the zeta anyway, as it'll let you buy replicas without needing the weapon on you
Wait, just to clarify, that doesn't mean I need to turn in the weapon with another npc just to enable replicas, does it?
You'll keep your zeta and have access to the replicas
you either need your zeta on hand to buy the replica
or turn it in for that step of Anima to buy replicas
turning it in, is arguably the easier of the two since you don't physically need the zeta in your inventory
you can just go talk to drake to buy the replica whenever
so if you're doing anima, have a zeta completed, you can freely turn it in to skip the first step
ah, okay, thanks. I thought perhaps there was a separate npc for turning in to unlock replicas and got confused for a moment
is the bahamut questline relevant to the Main Story at all?
yep
what part?
all of it
well more specifically post hw, post shb, and endwalker
ah ok
but it introduces characters that become mainstays in the msq too
also like, it wraps up 1.0 stuff
How do I start the next phase for my ARR Relic? I have Gae Bolg
buy 3x thavnairian mists from auriana, chuck them plus the gae bolg into the furnace near drake in hyrstmill, north shroud
uhh okay
thats a lot to take in
btw, im assuming that all the relic weapons follow the same phases/steps?
yeah for ARR i mean oops
ok ty, im planning on getting them all
free achievements hehe
That's gonna take a long time
all of the relics eventually
might be an exception to eureka/bozja relics but i happen to like those a lot as well
which again will take forever, and take up a lot of inventory
eh we got like 10 years. could make it happen
How well do mouseover ogcd macros work for sage? I heard macros are a bit wonky?
eh it wont hurt to try
if i overcap on xp does it go anywhere
the void
for example lvl 90 gets 1 mil xp does that just get turned into gil or something or does it go to waste
oh
im kinda
lvl 80 while not even finished with stormblood
so get another job
yeah
ill just level samurai or something
sage
defo sage
cool lasers
pew pew

how many main quests are in shadowbringers and how many in endwalker
well really what im asking is from the start of shadowbringers to the end of endwalker how much xp total do you get from doing all the main quests
enough to lvl a job to 80/90
you absolutely shouldn't use macros whatsoever for GCD abilities (spells)
ogcd is also wonky, lol
You can use them for ogcds (abilities) but be aware they don't queue correctly so you if you hit them during an animation they won't fire
