There are mysterious ||TOS breaking|| mods that address this issue, but I don't think they're to be talked about here
i dont think you need to explicitly avoid talking about them in general
endorsing them probably, but this isn't the official game server
So I don't know if this is just really specific but seeing how the online store is on sale and I didn't renew my sub (busy), yet I do want to purchase stuff
Is it possible to buy things in the store with a non-active account or do you have to be actively subbed in order to purchase things?
id imagine you could...not like theyll stop u from spending money, though you wont be able to enjoy the results till after u resub
Yeyeye, I just want to take advantage of the opportunity haha
Do the Titania weapons come in glowy versions yet
No

there are no shiny ShB weapons other than the 5.0 final boss
Is ||Delubrum Reginae|| efficient for leveling? Or am I better off with ||Bozja and Zadnor||
it doesn't give exp, so no
Cool. Thank you, I'll just go back to grinding engagements
does someone know how the game behaves when you get a sudden but temporary disconnect?
what do you mean? like you disconnect from your wifi and then connect back in a second?
cause if that happens you're probably gonna get disconnected immediately from the game after a few seconds
same goes for connecting to vpns ingame, etc
Yeah I think this might have happened to me, everyone was frozen except me but I could actually read the last few chat messages before I got kicked.
Also no recorded dc on my side of things, looked into my router and other applications that would've notified me.
Oh sorry I think this is something for #technology-discussion , was just wondering how it looks ingame.
if its from the outside persepective you just get a
symbol for a while, for some reason that happens to me on occasion that im able to talk with my friends in chat, but cant access anything else ingame
if you're dcing you get a red icon next to your name
if you manage to not get booted then you still stay in game
otherwise you just blip out
and if it happens in a dungeon you get ???? ???? on your party list
Couldn't really see that or didn't put attention to that, I was just "frozen" for 15~seconds before i got the boot
your avatar also disappears until you reconnect
its how i somehow survived a trial, and then came back to see only the WAR alive
and me
your character can get killed if they're still on the red icon
oh, yeah
well I hope it was just a hiccup somewhere, having your healer dc is not that good :x
Ethernet 
In squadron, if you play healer you can just pull everything and heal right?
Any fishers out here? I've been trying to catch a fish for a levequest but haven't gotten a single one at the location on the wiki. Anywhere else I can look to figure out where to fish?

best materia X to stock up on? savage aim/might, and heavens eye all seem to have similar prices, though crit > DH > det it seems
Can free trial players use state teleportation? I want to organize a welcome party to my friends who got in trial and can't get them to Kugane for obvious reasons
well you can't teleport if you aren't attuned
State teleportation is the one to the player apartment/house
I don't think you can join an FC in trial
really?
I didn't know 
But I don't want to reorganize my apartment again for the party just to test it
Anyway, if someone knows the answer, please ping me
was it in kugane?
bc i dont think FT can go to that specific housing district
It was on the goblet, back when I didn't had it attuned
but they can for the other areas since its part of arr/hw
I know you can go to a FC house in shiro even if you haven't reacher Stormblood
Ah, I got Kugane and Shirogane mixed again
do people even queue up for Dalriada anymore when they go into Zadnor
like did I just pick a bad time to try
sadly there is not much incentive right now to do Dalriada
do you need to finish 6.1 to unlock bozja?
5.1
5.1 iirc but you need to have done Stormblood alliance raids
just the 5.1 MSQ and the return to ivalice raids
do i need to do all of the crystal tower quest line before i continue the msq? cause if so i guess i got my day planned tomorrow
if the msq won't let you continue, yes you'll need to keep doing the raid
Delivers an attack with a potency of 100 to all enemies in a straight line before you.
Soul Voice Gauge Cost: 20
Potency increases up to 500 as Soul Voice Gauge exceeds minimum cost. Additional Effect: Grants Blast Arrow Ready upon execution while Soul Voice Gauge is 80 or higher
Duration: 10s
Consumes Soul Voice Gauge upon execution.
ā»Action changes to Blast Arrow while under the effect of Blast Arrow Ready.
!action blast arrow
Delivers an attack to all enemies in a straight line before you with a potency of 600 for the first enemy, and 60% less for all remaining enemies.
Can only be executed while under the effect of Blast Arrow Ready.
ā»This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.
Is it necessary to optimize your Apex arrow and use it at 80 gauge exactly, in order get more blast arrow in the long run?
How much do you lose if you use it at 85 or 90?
i think its still 400 at 85/90
so its better to just use at 100 since the extra apex would prolly just be offset by the weaker ones
i think theirs some fights where you'd move it around tho
from the balance
ah kk
the 2 minute buffs specifically, it's fine to be more liberal with it in the 1 minute windows
as long as you get a big one for the 2 minute windows
Cool
What does everyone spend their tomestone poetics on after they've bought all the raid gear
!faq anima
the guide there has more details
yeah you can prepurchase basically most of the HW relic weapon requirements with poetics and GC seals
Question re: fishing and zhloe custom deliveries. I caught two Thavnairian Leaf but it doesn't seem to be the one Zhloe wants. How do I get the one Zhloe wants?
use the collect skill thingie
that lets you convert things you catch into collectables
during the fishing process
oh!
ahhhhhhhhhh ok thanks thanks!
As a follow up to zhloe custom deliveries, since there are 3 options and you can turn in 6 per week, I assume any combination you prefer would work?
oohh sweet. Thanks!
hey guys im close to needing to do castrum/praetorum and ive heard people get left behind if they dont skip so my question is do i skip, do the dungeon and watch cutscenes later or do i let them play as they come
You can't skip the cutscenes
Everyone has to watch them
So just pop that sprint and run after the team, they know the way thru
another zhloe question (sorry i'm pretty new to craft/gathering >.>) How do I get her to accept the second or even third tier? The collectibility of the fish I have atm is 340, but when I turn in I only get the 1st tier.
If your team don't hit certain enemies, then you don't
you should be getting the last tier
make sure you're hovering over the correct thing
ahhh it's 1000.
The game should just do the rewarding correctly
oooooooooooh ok nvm sorry im dumb xD
No worries
Nice

Hey guys so I accidentally subscribed for a standard instead of entry when I try to change it, it says that I will be charged. I've already paid the £8 something Will it charge me again this month for the entry if I change it? I should have just wait until my next bill is due and then change it?
it shouldn't charge you twice this month, no
what besides memories of the dying can be farmed in crystal raids? i know mahatmas can but it's wildly inefficient when you can just spam a boosted EX primal and get it all in 15 minutes
aether oil for relic weapons i guess too, anything else?
is there no ilvl500 from scrip for fisherman spear?
wth
Is there an option to have helmets hidden only during cutscenes?
nope, just the standerd one
That's good to know :)
I'll change it then for next month
no, but some cutscenes automatically hide it
what does [MC] mean /r/ffxivrecruitment - something core i'm guessing?
ah ok - i wonder how that sits next to sHC which i assume is semi-hardcore š
you're on aether at ass crack hours
It's 5am on the east coast
Dude
It's 5am
go hang out with the limsa erp people idk
Alright itās one of these guys, discord tag doesnāt help your case either
i don't really like going to old sharlayan because the teleportation fees to get anywhere else are so awful
Yea i usually hang around Ishgard.
Plus, again, it's either asscrack dawn or late night in NA
Am I missing a trick? I never use boats. I just pop up the aetherite travel.
not really
there's some shortcuts like arcanist guild boat npc to vesper bay, but they added waking sands aetheryte tickets some time ago i think?
[Endwalker ending] ||Is there any way to get the "Endwalker" status, or something similar after MSQ?||
it's a title from finishing the 6.0 msq
oh
yeah just schwalk
No shit. Thats way faster though
Itās not tho
why mad
also i don't think the specific status effect is applied anywhere else than that situation
||In that part of the MSQ, if you are in regular running mode, the speed goes down to walking speed. If you're in walk mode it's even slower.||
That's why I'm asking whether there's something similar
No
Rpg walk?
Thatās too fast for them apparently
Because the answers were literally "just walk 4head" lol
because thatās literally the solution to what we thought the issue was
Yeah but, tbh, if someone's finished Endwalker, they likely know the walk button exists
You say that
I think the game tells you about it iirc
It does not
i didnāt know about walking until i was in like 5.2 lmao
Oof
but yeah i think the slowest walk you'll get besides the msq is the toggle walk or just watching the cutscene walk lol

Curious if anyone could clear this up for me. I have this weapon I just got, and the game says that the weapon on the right is better than what I have, however I would think losing all of that Crit would make my current weapon the better option. Is the small bit of Dexterity gained, the +1 Phys dmg, and the Det actually going to result in a better option?
Always prioritize weapon damage & main stat
cool, will read. appreciate it
oh im tired as hell i thought it was a link lmao. but still, ty for the clarification
Hey y'all, I have a question. I'm currently almost lv 18, but I havent found any level relevant quests for like the last 3 or 4 levels, and currently have only one quest in my quest log at all, even.
Is there a way for me to figure out, like, where to go?
I would like to find a new level appropriate quest hub or something.
Do the msq
you shouldnt have to worry about that, just do your main story quest
is this an alt class or a new char?
New character.
side quests give very poor experience
MSQ
+1
!faq msqtracker
-
Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.
-
An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.
By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.
Currently this is my only quest, it seems. This is that main quest I should do? It's almost 4 levels below my level.
this is pretty much all you need to follow to get thru story and unlock most things
Ye, 
Either get a new job and level it
Or just do the plot
I see.
there are no penalties to exp in doing lower level stuff
Should I try to do it on an alt so the level will be more appropriate?
That's an option many take yeah
Doesnāt matter, your decision
if the combat matters it will sync you down to an appropriate level
If you're concerned about "wasting" the exp
(solo duty or group activities)
Then leveling two (or more) jobs via MSQ exp can be an efficient choice
But don't fret too much about it.
I have no clue what MSQ is.
Leveling alts isn't difficult
Main Story Quest
We just told you
Main Scenario Quests 
Can i transfer a house that was bought for personal use to an fc?
No
Is the "forming party" thing the only option or is there a way to fight bosses alone ?
You can solo things provided your stats are high enough and/or have self sustain
you can do duties undersized via the unsynched option but depending on the fight you need a significant amount of overleveling
Oh okay. Thank you

Will I lose anything if I change my retainer job from miner to botanist?
Levels
Unlike your character, your retainer doesn't keep their progress
So if and when you swap them back to botanist, they start from scratch again
It's just me or is JP server down?
I checked connection and still can't login to the game
Ugh so everytime I reset they lose everything. That shucks š¦
i just logged in to elemental
Exist "best settings" to use on ff?
The ones that work for you
is there a job with more actions than SMN?
probably not, but smn has like the least buttons, its just that most of them change for the 5 different summons
Beast tribe question - Iāve unlocked ananta, and immediately did the 3 available quests. Upon finishing my rep is friendly (180). That was 2 days ago. Now when I go back to the quest NPC she just gives a speech text, but no quests. What am I doing wrong?
most actions, least buttons
Rank up
Yes, i saw that as well. The NPC for rank up is Alpa, but she also just gives speech text.
And you donāt have any tribe quests in your journal? From any of them
Yes Iāve completed the first beast main quest (brooding broodmother). That is what unlocks the vendor and dailies.
Not what I meant
Ananta is the only tribe Iāve unlocked
Anyway. No open quests with them. Did the dailies two days ago. Nothing since.
Hmm. Although hang on. My timer screen says ā9 allowances remaining todayā. It should be 12 on daily reset right?
Which hasnāt happened yet
how many gc supply and provisioning missions can I get in a day?
1 per doh/dol
Not how it works
Explain?
For channeling overflow (bubbles and long/short arrows) for the set of bubbles, where do I go to not clip others? Guys say itās full improvisation. Does it mean I stand on the outer edge of the panel? Or just run to the bridge near the kill-panel?
Iām confused a bit since thereās no macro for this fight

there is a set reset time, it does not depend on when you use them up
!daily
Ahhā¦so my timing was probably not great with when I completed them. Counting as āthe next dayā, which is still going now.
yep, take 3, then do it immediately
Iāll see if they pop on reset in a couple of hours
2 people can stand on each side next to the unsafe square
on the grates between the squares specifically
the inner corners of the safe squares may also work, there are a few possibilities
the important part is just not to clip the short arrows
well not 100% but to a degree, yes
as I said, the safest positions are right next to the unsafe square
but only 2 people on each side so if 3 people choose to run to the same side someone has to adjust
Yep. 2 players get to the bridges next to the unsafe square, while the other 2 stay in the inner-max corner of their respective squares?
let's say A is the unsafe square
in the pic the BLM and the SCH are using the spots shown to not clip anyone
but they could also move cloer to the DNC/GNB on the grates
you can fit 2 people on each side of the unsafe square
I see, tyvm
my advice: do not panic, there is quite some time to find your safe spot
just look for a free spot where you won't clip anyone
Got it, cheers
is Tonberry's character creation not on yet?
tonberry is Congested, won't be able to make a character until status is changed. earliest that will happen is 6.1
gives you can option when you right click on a someone on your friends list to teleport to them
assuming they are a new adventurer
ooo okiez!
I'll have to do every single one of them then
kujata has EN people from what I heard. but yeah ton is congested
up to you, but yeah that's one way to level it casually
just do that much dol/doh once per day and do something else
other way is to do ishgard restoration/leve, you could choose
do all challenge logs reset weekly?
yes
whats the difference between selene and eos?
ohh okay thanks
I want to make alt on Tonberry so yeah gonna wait out then
You may be waiting a while. "Congested" is a semi-permanent status, only subject to change when a major patch happens (or new servers are added).
So the earliest you might be able to make a character on Tonberry will potentially be April-ish when 6.1 is released, and even that isn't a guarantee.
Are there any mounts with Revenge Twofold as their song?
no
;-;

is dancer quest theme an orchestrion roll?
Vamo' alla Flamenco is gold saucer purchase
fabulous, cheers
how do i setup 2 separate hotbar setups ?
like for example if i wanna have one for pve and an other for pvp
pvp is automatically using a different hotbar
go to wolves den and attack a target dummy to set it up
oh!
yeah, you may want to look for a burst guide for your favourite job in pvp
cause they play differently compared to pve, they don't follow weaving rules
hmm how do i get in that dummy area again ?
i tped in drydocks but i cant find something
wolves den? there should be an unlock quest
To unlock The Wolves' Den, players must speak to their Grand Company commanders, R'ashaht Rhiki (Limsa Lominsa Upper Decks (x13,y12) for The Maelstrom, Vorsaile Heuloix (New Gridania (x9,y11)) for The Order of the Twin Adder and Swift (Ul'dah - Steps of Nald (x8, y8)) for The Immortal Flames.
iirc there isnt a blue quest in my GC
do you have a teleport in limsa area for wolves' den?
Block em
why does Tillana grant Standard Finish effect? wouldn't you want to use Standard Finish every 30 seconds anyway?
Just a quick Q.
How many ranks are there on Bozja?
25
note that zadnor gives RIDICULOUSLY MORE mettle than BSF
after that, excess mettle can be traded for permanent damage/health/armor buff
Insane grind like eureka?
If mettle is your aim, stay in Bozjan till you unlock Zadnor, then just stay in Zadnor till 25
nope, just probably more mechanically involved
i went 1-25 in 3 days with a streamer
nah, but theres an optional grind if you like those
Hmm kk. Got it

is there a good pvp resource that covers all maps and modes ?
theres a discord for that in #resources
pvpaissa iirc
so for free trial whats a good way to do dungeons without duty finder cos its too slow
Duty finder
DF is your only option.
duty finder
oof
welcome to dps enjoy your stay
i made a mistake choosing archer
Nah
you can pick up arcanist for a dps and healer combo
SCH has fast ques for dungeons and play smn for the other stuff
I mean, not really? Even dps queues are usually not more than 15 minutes or so on average.
Only after level 30. Before then they're a dps only, so the problem doesn't get solved.
!faq dflanguages
strongly recommend since you have chaos role to do this
Oh yeah, also languages.
I don't even understand how that works
I have it on only English, yet still get queued with frenchies and germans
If they also have English selected, then of course.
Cuz they also choose English
But 8 haven't chosen French
You can choose multiple
I*
You can select all four languages simultaneously.
Ugh
It's recommended that if you're on an EU server, that you pick English, German, and French for faster queues.
No way to avoid them huh
Lol
But ping
Then deal with it.
Trust me where are plenty of bad players like that, if not worse in NA. At least in EU DC countries can use language barrier as an excuse
same for JP DCs tbh
It's more that it's a "meme" that 90% of the time you encounter a bad player, they're French or German
the worst players i had were english
I only encounter 1 French player on my time in NA and it was pretty bad
and the legend chads were french
This is #questions-and-help
It's how its been for me during my 3000+ hours
Oh, it is LOL
Genuinely thought I was in discussion, my bad.
how do people make their tanks all have different glam with the same gear
do they reapply glamour plates every time?
make several plates, and link the plate to the appropriate gearset
oh i didnt see that option before, ty!
Are hi-cordials the best available item for GP restoration?
Should be unless they introduce another item in EW that I donāt know about
(but they probably won't, since they upped the passive regeneration again)
how can we translate language in dialogue in game using XIVLaucher?

How can I get carried through savage? I know how to play through my job but itās too late to prog so Iām just looking for a group to drag me through RQ
You guys know anyone?
Current savage?
Yeah
You can't.
Canāt?
If you go into Savage now, you aren't going to get carried. It's still current content, which means the scaling expects everyone to pull their weight.
You can still do progression with pugs.
Oh. Well Iāll wait until next expansion then. Thanks
even random shitter groups can carry someone through p1s now
I mean, yeah P1, maybe P2S you can get carries.
but like...just pull your own weight dude, or hit up a boosting group and pay them to carry you
But P3S and P4S are still prog bosses.
Any recommendations? You know anyone?
I assumed they were looking for a ride 1-4 though.
just go on party finder
i don't know any boosting groups because I don't pay to get carried
^
Ah I see ok
What's even the point of getting carried?
You aren't just going to get everything you need for gear the first time through.
I donāt have like 100 hours to spend on prog
mount, I guess
it doesn't take 100 hours lol
for one ultimate, maybe
not for savage
Imagine 100 hours of prog for Savage.
Really? All of my friends who do savage say it took that long
I mean, maybe, spread out over several months if your group struggles a lot on 3 and 4
Thatās what I went by for my metric on how long it takes
But it's not like you're doing 6 hours a night.
You can prog with just a couple of hours per week
And still clear P4S (maybe) by the time 6.2 drops.
an average group will probably prog the first two fights within 5-10 hours total
And yeah the mount is all I care about
If you just want the mount with minimal effort, wait an expansion or two and unsync it.
Then next expansion you go
yep you're gonna have to wait till like 2 years for that
Cause there's no guarantee you'll win the mount
it isn't gonna be that easy even with next raid tier gear, or even the raid tier after that
Didnāt you just say there was groups?
gotta wait till level 100
If you want to pay thousands of real money
if you want to pay for a carry group then they will probably pilot your account
Yes, there are groups that you can pay to carry you once.
Thousands???
Yes
Yes
it's not gonna cost thousands vinyl
It's RMT
Oh, I see
i recall boosting groups where the booster pilots your account goes for like a few hundred
for ultimates
it's probably cheaper for savage
but again, illegal and you have to forfeit your account security
any other kind of boost where you are piloting your account is going to require effort
cuz you have to understand at least some of the mechanics to a minimal level
So we once again come back around to my original response of: You can't."
An oversimplification, perhaps, but still accurate.
Getting rewarded without putting effort in is harder than I thought it would beā¦

That's kinda the fucking point
idk man are you trolling lol
unless you have connections with people, no one's gonna carry you for free
Don't we all
I just wanted a quick fix
If you don't have the time for Savage, then you wait until it can be unsynced.
and direct carries, being illegal, will cost money
just know ur already playing one of the best games possible if u care about a game respecting your time
Yeah I know man, Iām not dissing ffxiv at all
I was just hoping there would be an easy way for this one thing, but itās ok, savage is just one thing, I still have the rest of the game
High end content never has (legal) ways to make it easy when it's current.
That would defeat the purpose of the content.
My static cleared P4S in ~7 weeks progging like 7 hours/week

I was going to help a friend lvl their blue mage killing mobs without being in the same party, and it seems to not longer work. Is that the case? what is good now to lvl blue mage?
too high
doesn't matter
gotta be lvl 70 exactly
if they tried kholusia and didn't work
ooooooh
you are 100% certain you weren't in a party when you tried kholusia?
and you were attacking the 70 mobs on the beach?
i tend to prefer southern ame areng since all the enemies are melee
ok perfect! going there ā¤ļø thanks for the help
Anyone know if they have nerfed Ehl Tou's custom deliveries requirement?
I did 6 turn in only (for 1 week) and got 2 hearts 0_0
I am new and wanting to check the game out. I really want to join the faerie server in aether and was wondering how long servers usually stay congested and when i can expect character creation to open on that server.
Youād be waiting for like a month at least
6.1 would be the earliest in april
Just pick a different server
Trying to start eureka now, but Krille quest is red. What i need to do? I think i misread something idk
Do what she says
Read
can i glamour a lvl 50 item on a lvl 40 character
okay thanks
You can't glamour high level stuff on low level gear
Essentially you canāt look better than you should gear wise
I re-download the game again after taking a break for few months, my gear sets and UI setting are gone, anyway I can get it back?
did you back up your save data to the cloud
you can do that in the character select screen
although I don't think it saves gear sets
then what about the gear that my other class is equiping?
Just re-equip it
You still have the gear, just not the gearset list
ah okay
How do you Limit Break I can't find the input for it anywhere
It's an action in your action window under either General or Main Commands
You can put it on your hotbar just like your job actions
Ok thx
me confused
make sure your job stone is equipped

it is?
Itās not
isn't trials ex mounts are rare to drop ?
Curious, what's the datacenter Materia like in terms of the raiding scene.
how's shb mounts drops like almost 99%

we don't have actual drop rates but they're under 10%
sounds like an outlier of lucky RNG

!quest like civilized men and women
can you see it on daily roluttle ?
nope!
there is
"a pup no longer"
its from the same npc that gives "like civilized men and women"
did you actually talk toTrachraet
or are you just looking at the map?
because he offers multiple quests and only one can be shown on the map at a time
how do I test the latency of a specific Datacenter on cmd prompt again?
and what's the IP address of the Materia datacenter
!faq checkping
North America
Aether: 204.2.229.9
Primal: 204.2.229.10
Crystal: 204.2.229.11
Europe
Chaos: 195.82.50.9

Gaia: 124.150.157.157

how do I ping the IP?
Windows: Open Command Prompt and type ping *insert IP Address here*
Mac: Open Terminal and type ping *insert IP Address here*
ah that's the one
thanks
hmmmmm..... checking the latencies I got between Aether and Materia
124 ms on Materia
Do ppl still do castrum lacus litore
and 170 ms in Aether
it'd be more accurate to go to Task Manager > Resouce Manager > Network > TCP Connections > FFXIV_dx11.exe(or dx9)
and seeing your latency there
of course u have to be in game tho
there is no way to finish Relic Reborn in free trial right?
it doesn't imo
how painful
try to identify whether you're moving early or late, if you die a lot to snapshots you're probably consistently moving either early or late
pretty painful that i would strongly recommend not doing it until you 1. upgrade to full game, 2. get to max level, 3. are very bored
shite
very painful
50ms is the world of a difference after a certain point
ok thanks
just buy it with poetics in mor dhona or any of the 3 starting cities
I'll do that thanks
Hello! Quick question. Is server transfer still down? I canāt seem to find it anywhere on mog station.
It's been back for a while
Should be under Additional Services on the Service Account Dashboard page
Or the left menu
Odd, I donāt even have the ability to get into it when I click it. It just takes me back to mog station log in.
Try clearing your cookies or a different browser
is free trial back btw? I stll need to convert friends
Yes
It worked! Thank you!
ok this is probably a rather dumb question but for some reason i can't seem to figure it out, i like playing in windowed mode so i can use a notepad on the side, yesterday my wife set my game to full screen because she prefers it that way to do something for me, now when i play everything's really small, meaning the window is exactly the same size i like, but the chat box, skills literally everything has shrunk, basically think of the full screen setting and the size everything is but in a window that's what i used to have, not sure how to get it back, i tried doing the default setting but that didn't seem to do anything, any ideas, apologies for the long message, but thought to mention everything potentially pertinent
Yes but remember no one can use congested worlds
fiddle around with the UI Scale settings
maybe you had it set to a different percentage
Well as a side note there's a plugin for an in game notepad, I use it sometimes. Secondly she might have changed the ui scale settings in system configurations
the superior solution is going borderless windowed and setting your notes on second monitor (if you dont have one, grab a shitty second hand one for cheap from your local ads)
i'm on a laptop so not an option for that
when i change the ui scale it doesn't actually do anything, or does it require you restart the game?
did you press apply
yes
should immediately change on pressing apply
also did you mean the radio buttons or the drop down?
drop down is the UI Resolution
that one you should set to 4K, as it's simply superior
ok so radio, yeah it doesn't change anything when applied
ok actually
that did work
for some reason the apply didn't do it but the apply all did
so yeah not sure why there's a difference but it worked, so thanks
apply all is for a different thing
you can set up each window's scale independently
and that setting that just sets all independent settings to one
yeah i thought they'd be the same, as they both say apply
thank you for your time, it's much appreciated, was almost going to switch to full screen as it was so irritating
have a great day
Did they announce a date for 6.1 in the last Live Letter? I haven't had a chance to look at it
No
It wasn't about 6.1
It's about the next decade of ff14
6.1 ll is in March and was announced
Thanks!
if i go to a duty where my ilvl will be synced to 200 and my avg ilvl is above that, does it matter if some items are below ilvl 200
Yes

yes
zamn š

Well yes but actually no
Queuing Battle hall is a āfree warpā
Are there dyable Omicron sets?
yes, they're from savage mode of the omega raids
Thanks!
is this min item level or what the game syncs you to
nope
The min ilevel is labeled as the min ilevel
avg. item level is the min level to enter
can i find out what it syncs you to
its the same symbol as synching to a FATE
if it doesn't have a specific ilvl sync
it syncs you to the highest ilvl of the expac
wait do duties without the symbol not sync your ilvl
it syncs ot the highest ilvl for that level
damn ok
What does the Fisher do?
š
I mean wtf did you think it did?
fish.
It*
You see, Ivan, when you play Fisher, you go out to fish, and you catch fish.
you get fish
fish jenga
Fish more fish
depends on the fish
Is it good money
the fish give u happiness
can be.
finishing the fishing log probably harder than clearing savages
And heavily RNG reliant
So what's a good job to do at a low lvl
Yes
all are great but if u really want someone to give u an answer, just do fishing and CUL
Which is why I said yes
only worry about crafters and gatherers when you've done the msq.
I wanna do crafting
i get the yes answer but when someone ask that kind of question, they literally just want someone to pick something for them
Fishing sounds peaceful tho
so i agree but just send them on their way lol
Crafters are literally identical
well yeah but you can't go to other areas to fish if you're not even gonna do MSQ
Min & btn are identical
yeah, gotta do story
Fisher is just fishing
someones when i wanna play i get this message, why?
just got to the point where you can pick up job gear and its just for free, do you not have to do the job quests first?
for EW? no
but if you want to dye them then you have to finish the role quests, yes
Dye
mm okay

can glamour pr be acquired with in game money? or a way to get them
depends on the glamour you want
in some cases yeah
Do you mean prisms or actual pieces of gear
oh the prisms
yeah you can buy them off the market board
for really cheap
or with gc seals
Market board, GC, wolf marks
oh! glad to know!
most people would get them with gc seals cause you get tons of those
yeah I'm in my way and planning to do this
thank you ^^
And if youāve been doing your daily frontline, you have more than enough marks to go around
but insufficient rank xD
just hit 90 on a bunch of jobs, currently rocking the 89 free job gear, whats yall recommendation for jewlery so im not still using my level 80-86 shit
sg
how can I rank up to access these?
talk to the NPC right next to the vendor
talk to the personnel officer
they tell you how to rank up
you need seals and gc hunting log completions
after a certain point, you have to start doing side content to continue ranking up
last 3 ranks (up to captain) require squadron stuff
is there no way to search in-game for triple triad cards that you own or don't own?
You have a compendium
a what
A log of all the cards youāve collected
ok, i know about going to the gold saucer menu and clicking "card list" but there's no search function
Of course not thatād make things too easy
well, alright then. That's kind of a dismal attitude to take to it, and a very elaborate way to say "no" to my question lmao
It's a list of literally every card in the game, whether or not you own it and where to get it...
š
but there's no search function in it. that was my question. When i see a card in a shop somewhere, I would love to be able to quickly check if i own it. The only option is to check all 13 pages tediously/
š
So to level alts people say to do PotD 51-60 and HoH 21-30. I recently just completed 51-60 on my save file. What would be the correct way to repeatedly run 51-60 while leveling my class?
And if I want to level a different class, do I need to do 1-50 again, on a new save with that class? Or am I misunderstanding?
once you've reached floor 50
you unlock the option to start new runs right at 50
so you make a new save with whatever class you want and just queue 50 over and over again
Is there any point on doing the non weekly company squad missions once I hit level 60 on my team?
Materially, no.
Alright, time to gamble my tickets then
u gotta examine the spot to unlock it

I got a couple of chemistry that gives me gatherer/crafter's scrips (about 100-150 per squad mission)
so I run some squad missions for passive gain of that currency
every now and then
So Iām trying to level 1 tank, 1 healer and 3 DPS which are all 71. Should I just do bozja or dungeon grind
Dungeons for tank and healer
Dps bozja
Or dps dungeons plus doing chores between queues
Thatās what Iād usually do with DPS I guess Iāll just continue dungeon grinding then
Where do I see how many levequests I have left?
Journal
Sankyu o/
you could also Run trusts to level them if you haven't yet, its like 30 min per dungeon but two birds with 1 stone
for sch solo leveling - zadnor or dungeon spam?
idk the numbers after they buffed exp from them
at lv 83. also i dont heal at all so im gonna go baby mode and over heal and shit
dungeons
how long will it take for the 2 character mount arrive

Flying chair, itās crafted

Some people need the obvious answers, no matter how obvious it is
You have no idea, when they asked what you got from fishing, how badly I wanted to reply with the video of James May saying "Cheese."
Does housing require a lot of gil?š¤
Millions
can look up here
I reckon if you catch up with MSQ with a few doh/dol level'd you'll have like 8m-ish
I have barely over a million, imma chill for the moment

Ok thanks
How do you unlock flying in the new areas, just entered heavensward and I can't fly in Ishgard atm
You can't fly in cities
!faq flying
'How can I unlock Flying?'
Flying is unlocked in A Realm Reborn zones simply by completing the level 50 story quest 'The Ultimate Weapon'.
Flying is further unlocked in the expansions through the collecting of a zone's Aether Currents, with every zone having ten 'green' Aether Currents found in the overworld and five 'yellow' Aether Currents obtained through the MSQ and side quests marked with a plus sign. Azys Lla is the only zone to not have any green Aether Currents. You must collect all Aether Currents in a zone to be able to fly.
'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'
Upon obtaining the Story Quest 'Divine Intervention' you get the Aether Compass, which is a key item you can use to locate the nearest non-quest Aether Current. This can be set to your Hotbar for ease of use. Alternatively, you can use this website to show the location of all Aether Currents for a zone. http://heavenswhere.com/
But you need to collect aether currents
and yeah, can't fly in cities
Yeah I know that but it was outside of it but thanks for the tip
You'll get told about this and given the aether compass to help find them after your first visit to sea of clouds and coerthas western
yeah the NPC will tell you later when you are ready to see aether current hehe
Yo how does someone sit like this on something you usually can't chairsit on? Just an illegal client or smth?
It's an RP mod, yes.
Thanks x
anyone knows how much gil does squadron receive from the missions?
Do patron deities matter in character creation?
yeah for RP
is sightseeing log broken in ARR? for the large majority of vistas I visit, i'll be on top of the marker at the right time/weather but there is no system message and the corresponding emote doesn't work
You have to do 1-25 before 26-50 unlocks
ARR sightseeing logs also have time/weather requirements for a lot of them.
And they're extremely strict.
Arr sightseeing says fuck you
If you don't get the system message, then you're not meeting one of the requirements.
that is news to me, thanks probably it lol
I gave up on ARR sightseeing a long time ago lol
Is there a prereq for unlocking the Nier raids besides beating 5.0 MSQ?
is it worth doing maps if you need extra gil? outside of other obvious methods for gil like daily roulettes.
I'm leveling all my crafters they're at 40-50 currently and i'm realizing im completely broke 
Quest in Tomra
when's ishgard housing coming

is there a way to make the ps5 dualsense track pad control the mouse pointer on windows version?
Turn on the virtual mouse option in System Configuration.
I need to press R1+R3 for the virtual mouse to appear, I dont want that
I just want the mouse to move independently if I swipe on the gamepad

I saw a post online recommending to use side mouse buttons (mouse 4 and 5) as macros for shift and ctrl for hotbar purposes. How could I go about doing that?
You would need to set them up to correspond to those keys in your mouse's onboard software.
well that kinda blows
I think I'll use space and shift for hotbar instead
Since I suffer from a condition known as "weak pinkies"
How do i move the chatbox if by trying to drag it by holding mouse button on general doesn't work?

just drag the general
but it doesn't work on my desktop
Oh yeah you can just grab it from the main screen
Yeah that's what i'm saying
It doesn't let me grab it by just dragging general
Like it's supposed to make the fist icon when you press on general
but it doesn't for some reason
This huge gap is killing me inside
hmm can't really take an ss right now, climbing potd x_x
but suppose to be like that
yeah might be misclick the general or something hehe
dunno what did you do to fix it
does anyone kow how to transfer saved data?

I'm having a hard time finding information in-game on where to find fishing, mining, trade craft, etc. Levelmetes. Even online sources are wrong: https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Category:Fisher_Levequest - "Nyell" does not hand out fishing Leves.
Leveling a DPS job as an alt. I don't really like PotD and dungeon queues are long. Would FATEs and/or Levequests be a good thing to do?
no
@oak gale Any battlecraft Leves you can find for your given level. They seem to operate in blocks of 5 levels. Remember you only get so many Leve allotments.
