I swear my browser is a horror game sometimes
So yeah that worked
And now I'm even more embarrassed 
nah, its a common enough issue with steam users
Being idiots?
afaik its something about going to mogstation thru the steam browser that like flags the mogstation
Wah, that's crazy
Firefox randomly removes elements
no, but if you have certain ad-blocking or script-blocking add-ons, those might. afaik Edge doesn't play too well with those, and Chrome is ... funky
even turning off my ad blocks, that button is just gone
I've even confirmed this myself, by using my phone's firefox with no add ons
Then again, I have three separate ones active and I see everything, so ... there may be something else at work there.
I got my screen shot from chrome, so like
My earlier screenshot was from Firefox and I've got several extentions, including ublock
Tamper monkey exclusively adds a script to make downloads for yugioh decks on a specific website
Hi! Does anyone here play in ps5 with a wireless kb/m? Are there delays or problems?
when exactly do squadron members get new battle tactics? just had a run where 2 didnt get anything at all
Rng
RNG
the previous 7 runs all 3 got a mastery or new tactic every single time, was that just incredible luck ?
Rng is rng
At 40
damn
!action Doom spike
thats pretty late isnt it?
Yes, it's the latest out the melees
damn
on P3S, is it frowned upon on using party signs? I've been called a scrub for using it on myself just as a healer
You don't really need them
If anything you would make a bird to focus but even then that's not really needed
Markers on people's heads
I mean they're still used now and then in savage
They're called signs in the menu
And ex
But not a lot
Like maybe to mark the healers for mechanics that involve 2 stacjs
You won't use them 90% of the time
Emanation (Extreme)
can this boss be solo'd with a 90 tank?
With warrior yes
And 25% echo
Any Stormblood extremes need 25% echo to beat the enrage
how do you get extra echo?
Die after 3mins
thanks i will give it a try with my gnb
So yes, waste 20mins to stack echo
uh
GNB doesn’t have the same sustain
You get 5% echo per wipe after 3mins
So you need to wipe 5 times after 3mins have past
ah okay i will do the other duties then 😦 thank you!
Grabbed 2 things from the online store but only 1 delivered bc my mailbox was full after the first--I can't get the second item to deliver even after using the refresh function in the mailbox
How should I go about that?
Press the request delivery and just wait
Okie thanks
Just make a PF

am i just unlucky or is the one-time grind portion of the ShB relic that needs you to grind stormblood fates has super low drop rates
they were estimated to be around 25% before buff
though keep in mind
you could get fuck all for 75% of the runs and then get all of them in a row for the last 25%
shouldnt matter the level of the fates right
as long as you're doing them in the right areas, you're gucci
cool
i did azim steppes and whatever the gyr abanian one that sstarts with F is
with the bridge
How can i see the RPDS on an FFLOGS of my own?
do chi bolts have any other use besides buying the mount, or should i just discard them?
Look up your character
Just the mount
thxs
Go to the specific fight, select the Damage Done tab, look at the columns on the right side.
Bruh i'm blind
Thx
lol
huh what are you supposed to do here
Jaw
Zoom in and look for the point where the crosshair has a label.
Fun fact: Hover over the value in the rDPS column to see a breakdown of what you got from other players and what you gave to them.
Look at the jaw
The crosshair will change shape when you're over the right point.
Oh damn nice
Hey quick question, I already have FFXIV account... if I buy the game on steam will I be able to access that account? Ie buy endwalker and stuff and it will add it to my account?
Steam is a different Client than Windows/PS
Only if you're currently on trial
Otherwise no
Steam and non steam can't mix licences
damn, wanna get endwalker but I got money in my steam wallet for it. oh well
thanks for the answer
when you're queued for multiple duties is there a way to see the forming party status for each one other than waiting for it to scroll really slowly through?
the forming party status is wholly useless to begin with
I wouldn't count on it at all as a indicator of how your queue is looking
most duties will pull players from the roulette queues, and those players won't show up on the "forming party" status

why can't I pick Hrothgar or Viera when making a new character?
ah ok thanks
Do you not own Endwalker?
I do
That's the only reason you wouldn't be able.
Can you show your Mogstation grid?
you have to enter the code for EW on mogstation
are you sure you're logging into the same account
I cannot
And I'm logged in to the same account as my steam account
Not sure why I wouldn't be
Try relaunching the game, maybe?
is there a way to end my free trial? I am rlly tired of the restrictions and I am ready to move on to the entry fee sub so is there a way to upgrade my free sub early?
Buy the game.
Free sub lasts until you buy the game.
Buy the game
Pain
hi guys , quick question , just turned level 32 with the Arcanist , already did the lvl30 quest from the guild , how can i get the quest for the summoner?
!faq job
To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.
You'll need to progress the story if the summoner quest doesn't show
Probably only the base game got downloaded before. Now it's downloading the expansion content.
You should be able to make the restricted races once that's done.
I already have started edition
Then you're not on the free trial.
Then you're not trial
Then you have no restrictions
Either you're on the trial and have restrictions, or you've bought the game and have 30 free days of subscription time, which do not have the same restrictions.
If you want to progress past level 60 and the end of Heavensward, you'll need to purchase the Endwalker expansion as well.
Oh. Thanks😊
Is there a command on kupo spam to check the boat timer?
I started playing the game from the starter edition on steam, does that mean that im not on a free trial?
You're not free trial then
yay
You just don't own the complete game 
WHAAA
oh that
You see all that content you don’t have
so after im done with heavensward ill just buy ew
Buy it now
Yep
You already spent money on a job skip, from what you told us
after I buy it on steam do i need to redeem it on mog station, or is it just there after I buy it?
Yea no need to wait, unless you're going to take a long time to possibly get a sale
You have to register it, as usual
ok yah thats what i was confused on bcs this whole time i thoight i was on a free trial😅
mhm ok ill just buy t then
thanks guys
is reaper super powerful in downsync content? it feels like it hits like a truck
SE doesn't balance below max level
so for the most part, newly released jobs tend to hit hard in lower end content because of that
Also, SE introduced the Epic Echo for quite a lot of old content to simulate the damage you'd have been doing prior to the stat compression.
no no i mean synced
But in general, new-expansion jobs have all felt much stronger than their prior counterparts in down-level content simply because of kit design.
in roulettes and low fates and such
Dancer in particular was disgusting at lower levels because of the massive potency from its steps.
And it's because the general kit design approach seems to be
- design a reasonably complete kit for its acquisition level
- design the kit upgrades for the twenty levels it gets
- arbitrarily throw skills at different sub levels to pretend it's been designed from the ground up and so you don't completely destroy content at low levels
i've gotten halatali as dancer and it absolutely melts everything
like i said
SE doesn't balance around low levels
so its not really out of the norm for a lot of the new expac jobs to hit harder in lower end content
expac jobs all kinda deal with a bit of power creep in non-current content
and then at max level start to 'even' out
Basically old content wasn't designed for the potencies new jobs have
Is the queue for copied factory supposed to take forever or am I doing something wrong
Dps queues are better for alliance raids

Class quest are so fast jesus 🤔
Is this a question or a statement...?
a statement, i ask if i need to do the class quest before thats why im telling this
so im really bad at making order in my ability, any idea on how to make order in this mess
Take everything off your bars.
Read your tooltips
Rearrange everything based on what the tooltips say.
Once content is no longer current, the majority of the playerbase stops queueing for it directly. So if you are queueing for specifically Copied Factory, you're likely going to be waiting for a bit for Duty Finder to fill you via people queueing Alliance Roulette.
Also tidy up your hotbar locations so they’re not overlapping and off centre
Strongly recommend rebinding the numbers past 5 or 6 to more accessible keys such as QERTFGZXCV
Also actually bind your third hotbar
Well they give like 90% of your kit AND your job stone
With ctrl/alt modifier
what about the location of abilities?
Obviously yes
Wait
I read role quests
I'm dumb
Put more commonly used abilities in easier-to-access places
That’s it as rule of thumb
Ability layout is a highly individual thing, there’s not a “best” way
It’s whatever is comfortable for your hand and works with your muscle memory
And makes sense to you
👌
theres a order of skills that i use in white mage? Like a roation
Hello

Alexander, floor number, Savage
There’s 12 floors total
Void ark
Void ark series
It’s just an alliance raid series
It was very hard for me xD
!faq scripunlock
Unlocking scrips (Foundation x10, y10.)
Unlocking Idyllshire's House of Splendors (Mor Dhona 22, y6)
Unlocking Rhalgr's Reach House of Splendors (Rhalgr's Reach x10, y12)
Unlocking Eulmore's House of Splendors (Eulmore at x11, y10, on the top floor)
Unlocking Radz-at-Han's House of Splendors (Radz-at-Han x11, y9)
so what do i use blackest night for
Mitigation
It's your short Cooldown defensive
Yes, it's a soft chain
You need to do them in order
They’re referred to by their individual names, the numbered acronyms are only for the 8mans
It’s extremely powerful, you use it all the time
Provided it breaks, which it typically does In trash pulls

So stupid question I reached lvl 48 as a paladin but I hate being one. So would it be better to delete my character and start all over to level up with msq. (trial btw)
No
Just get another job
You.get bonus xp for jobs under your highest level job
Oh
Levelling alt jobs are much faster than redoing story
its not like other mmo's, cough lost ark cough
oh okay thanks alot.
if you like playing tank, you just go to the guild or location where they train em
Did anyone receive a random mod application thing from Saskia in this server?
They are a user in this server
That’s totally spam
Hello, do i need to +2 my antiquated gear from stormblood to make it dyeable?
or +1 is enough?
open a #discord-modmail
Wave of scam phishing dms just went out
It has to be the step after +2
Don’t click any of the links
ohh so its the last one calle anemos?
ye
gotta grind back to eureka again i think
thought i was done from it, but onced i saw the sam artifact gear
So I play on ps5 and my chat is massive how do I make it tiny?
Ah okay
Do you mean the window or the text?
The window I want it small
There's a triple line in the top right corner of the chat window. Grab that with the software mouse (pad button on your controller) and move it inwards.
I dont have a mouse and the touch pad button I turned it off and don't know how to turn it back on
The software mouse is the default for controllers. If you go into your... System Settings(?) you should be able to callibrate your controller - just make sure that you have Pad callibrated as "Select"
Virtual mouse
L1+r3 or whatever it is. The button combo for it is shown in the pause menu
That doesn't work 😕
It should
Look at what the button combo is in the pause menu, should show at the top
Unless you've completely changed the defaults on your controller, the pause menu will tell you what buttons to push to activate the software mouse.
Where do I find button combos
.
Imma have a aneurysm I figured it out for it to only stretch across my screen and it won't let me click it

I don't seem to ever roll on 'farlander' loot, but it keeps ending up in my inventory, and its always class relevant. What gives?
You get one piece of loot specific to your class when you finish a leveling dungeon.
Automatically
ohhhh, is that new?
They added it as a feature in ShB
what was it before farlander stuff?
It's not farlander specifically
Farlander would probably be the set for the dungeon you've been running?
oh, hm, I haven't run any level 70 dungeons in leveling roulette that I know of...
!item farlander ring of fending
None

※ Materia Slots: 1
※ Advanced Meldable: No
※ Required Level: 70
※ Repaired By: Goldsmith
※ Repair Material: Grade 7 Dark Matter
※ Dyable: No
※ Desynthesis: Yes
at least not in some weeks
Yeah you didn't get that automatically
Was probably just loot still being rolled for when everyone left you behind
If everyone leaves and you you didn't pass on it then it auto goes to you
idk, I'm usually the first to roll on everything because desynth addiction
Are you Needing on it?
If it's always class-relevant that would seem the likely alternative
usually greed, but that said, I literally have never seen Farlander loot show up as a roll, yet I've obtained somehow, and desynthed, probably 7 in the last week
my retainers arent bringing it back either
must be some boon from the twelve then. I have the Blessing of the Farlander Clutter.
which of the 12 is the deity of Hoarding?
Farlander is from hells lid/fractual hard
yeah definitely haven't run that, basically ever, except the one time I got it unlocked
is it possible your retainers are bringing them to you every now and again and you simply aren't looking at the stuff they give
To get better Desynth skill level the ilvl of the gear must be closer to actual desynth level or just higher?
Desynth level has to be equal or higher to the ilvl of the gear
but sometimes my desynt lvl doesn't get higher when the gear is too low
how's the scaling ?
is the difference between a caster's limit break and a melee that big?
Resources by Allagan Studies
Limit Break Explained
Shadowbringers Limit Break Video
do you know the max gap? also some stuff gives little, other stuff gives a lot, and IIRC sometimes gear higher than my level also gives some
No cause I don't pay attention to it
is there any instance in the current tier that a caster would lb instead of a melee?
Any time there are more than one target.
If you mean for like, Savage or EX... I don't think so?
or if the melee are trying to use it like a finisher
Nope
because that wastes the damage
How would using melee LB be wasting damage?
Are you holding it until the boss has a few hundred health left?
The amount of players who attempt to use Limit Break as the Anime Finishing Move is astoundingly high.
If you're at full LB and the melee haven't used it, generally.
is there any difference between the lbs or they all just do single target or aoe damage?
!faq limitbreak

Again read here
Melee are ST, casters are circular AoE, phys ranged are linear AoE
All the science and numbers inside
Tanks are party defense. Healers are party healing/raise
I've read that. So just damage, no buffs or anything like that, right?
No
well the tank lb is technically a party defense buff
Other than mitigation from tank
but that's it
the short version is that melee dps use the lb in the majority of situations
notable exception would be dungeon trash pulls, where ranged/caster lb is much more beneficial
Big AOE damage, on a big pull
Is a lot of value
Compared to melee LB on a single boss

Anyone else done Bozja recently notice that the first of Red Comet's giant meteors is proccing and killing everyone before the first one actually drops? Its like its off by 10 seconds
I bought a fenrir mount yesterday 7am but I was only able to play today, but its not appearing on my moogle mail, i only have 1 character and logged out/in, exit game a couple of times
checking in the right mail tab?
Yep..
You could theoretically lb1/2 at adds if your party was struggling on adds but it's not really worth considering otherwise
you sure your purchase went through?
Even tank lb has more opportunities to be useful
Yep I have the recipet and email
caster/ranged LB is for killing trash in dungeons
I bought 1x fantasia it got thru
This is specifically in regards to it's use in the current savage tier lore
do you have multiple accounts or service accounts?
1 acct, 1 server
hmm, submit a ticket
whats the command for kupo bot ping again? just logged in and everything feels unresponsive
nope !pingip nor !faq pingip worked
It's checkping
noipe that wasnt it in #kupo-bot-spam
hey so I wanna do a macro for saying a phrase when I emote, how I do that?
Faq checkping
you need faq infront of it @pure copper
ah
Two line macro - first line is the emote action, second is whatever you want to say.
For example:
/ebow
/p Nice to meet you.
how do i make an account 👊
!faq mogstation
Start there ^
nono i went there
and i made an account but i cant use my steam registration code on it
its grayed out
it's not working the way I intend
What are you trying to do?
Specifically?
trying to perform an emote and say something as I do it
like for this example, I wanna use Megaflare and say "THERE IS NO LIMIT TO MY POWER"
All macros are sequential.
did something happen with Aether? somehow getting 200 ping while everything else seems fine
what does that mean?
It means that each line of the macro is executed in turn. Line 1 first, then line 2 and so on.
thats so unintuitive
It's like computer code.
thank you
Very basic computer code.
oh so that's why I'm bad at it haha
It's almost literally BASIC
well here's what I came with, it says the command "/megaflare" doesn't exist
So in the case of your macro, you can either say what you want before or after the animation for the emote.
/say THERE IS NO LIMIT TO MY POWER
/Megaflare
like do I have to type "wait.1s
like wait one second?
No, that won't make it identify the emote
Try /emote "Megaflare" and see if that works.
Did you remember to buy and learn the mega flare emote?
Ah, yes, do you actually own the megaflare emote on the character you're trying to use this macro on?
Is the pope catholic?
Yeah I did it's fine
lol
Oh and you probably want /mega flare motion
So it only does the motion without the text blurb in chat
i was gonna say "are moogles second class citizens" but that would've probably offended someone
they are.
yo what is up with aether today rip
asking repeatedly and not getting an answer probably means it's a problem on your end.
Yeah I know, I just was trying to clear things up?
Do you know what the definition of insanity is?
Not you. Scarlyt's been asking about issues with Aether repeatedly
ohhhhhhhhhh
sorry thought I did something wrong haha
Nah
You're fine
Macros can be confusing, especially when they don't work the way you'd expect them to.
Lol tell me about it, it's like the coding classes I took all over again
failed every single one except one
but only because it was an art class and I stole code like a bandit
Macros are literally the most basic coding there is.
Macros are deliberately obtuse so that they're not usable in combat
But they boil down to being very very stupid and straightforwars
It executes one line per frame
alright but like I keep seeing people rezzing as mages saying stuff like "Get back out there"
And blank lines make the macro stop
They do something like
/ac "Raise
/p "<t> get back out there!"
/micon "Raise
The issue he's having is that it's not recognizing megaflare as an action
And if you don't know what the /whatever is for megaflare, just check your emote menu
I don't remember if you need quotes for store emotes or not.
It literally lists the / command for every emote
I know some of them can be a bit janky when you try to put them in macros.
it worked, thank you!
I was getting close tho I promise 
The ranger poses are in there for example
My money us now on you leaving in blank lines
best way to use verfire and verstone when it's proc? 🤔
not like BLM's fire and thunder proc right? use it for movement tools
You cast them as your next hardcast over jolt
check the casting time discrepancies between your spells
They do more damage than jolt
So you use them to proc Dualcast
Their cast is the same no matter what. You just are able to cast them with the proc up
you have spells that have short cast times, which you want to hardcast preferentially, and spells which have fucking ridiculously long cast times, which you do NOT want to hardcast
Instead of using Jolt to proc dualcast.
!faq 50rdm
It's 2.5 base for both jolt and verfire/stone
Oh right. I was thinking of Veraero/Verthunder.
Those are 5.0 base
YEah
Wtf no
They are the exact same as jolt there
I just think of them all as one thing because I cycle between them.
Yes, Kat. Channy told me I was wrong already thank you.
!action verfire
They're actually shorter than channy said since the cast time is only 2s
Like I said, I just think of Veraero/Verstone as part of the same spell and Verthunder/Verfire as part of the same spell because I always use them in cycle together.
Do we really need to be having a "who can be more correct" battle right now
Is that helping anything
what does it mean by if hardcast is not up cast jolt? 🤔
Hardcast means you cast with the full cast time.
only use veraero/verthunder when dualcast proc yeah?
Yeah. You don't want to be standing around for their whole 5s cast time during combat.
Waste of time and mobility.
Most importantly it’s a Dps loss
Is it to assign new jobs for retainer?
yeh
when your retainer reached job level 30 or whatever level expansion jobs needed
It technically serves to purpose, aside from changing to match say your main job, or allowing them to equip job exclusive gear
Only really needed if you want them to be an expansion job or scholar I guess
eh nani? why only scholar or expansion jobs only?
no benefit upgrading them to jobs? 🤔
Cause you can't have them as those jobs
Without changing them to that job for retainer
so if went to 70 i can change to rpr?
it doesn't do anything for the retainer beyond allowing them to equip gear appropriate for that job
Yes
unless you have absolutely no intention to level any of the ARR classes to max lvl
It needs 70 to swap to reaper
yeh, change to rpr need 70, but there's no restriction on the class, you could be reaper as any class
gotcha
Basically say you played as a warrior and assigned your retainer as a marauder but then suddenly at level 60 you switch to gnb and abandon war. Well your retainer is capped at 60,but if you change it to a gnb it's cap will be however high you level gnb on your character

Does HW have relic armor I can farm?
relic weapon yeah
Ok
anyone able to help with HW trials ex mount grind
Make a PF
@boreal storm me?
Clearly
@boreal storm well you did not really specify? but do i have to do them synced?
No
No
im glad to hear i thought farming these mounts would have been a headache
This isn't that kind of questions and help channel
@warm snow oh my bad thought the help meant ask for help
Nah more ask your questions and we'll help you, not come here for in game help
Party finder is honestly just way more efficient for that shit anyways
farming hw ex trial mount, you could do some of them solo 😁
Oh you can’t solo em then
Honestly I'd say just enjoy the story and come back to farm EXs once you're all caught up
yeah its just hard for me to move on without "completing" the expansion yk
my fc even said move on :p
yeah the only compulsory things to do is the one shown in your MSQ tracker and the (!) below it
Wait why didn’t you ask your FC to help you farm
other than that, raid, dungeon, trials, all are side content
Well if you've done the hw trials, raids and alliance raids then move on to stormblood imho
well my fc arnt usually able to do it and if i do get a lucky response the 1 person usually cant solo even with a lvl 90
High end stuff like extremes, honestly come back to them later
Most EXs after bismark can't be reasonably soloed due to mechanics
what expansion is bismark?
HW
Hw
HW..
ohh
Second story trial
the big whale island thing
bismark is limitless blue
You can solo All of the HW EX trials even before Endwalker last time I checked
As a WAR maybe
pay attention to the story instead of focusing on the mount 👀 you can get them easily later after you reached 90
Thordan knights auto wipe if you don't kill both ASAP, sephirot is only just doable
And even doable doesn't mean effective to farm
If zurvan wasn’t hard coded to have the arena phase you could kill him when he’s still shackled
yeah been through that its weird im almost 10 levels above req and i still get shredded
They gave some leeway time before their buffs activate
Doable <> good farming @fresh gate
Your level means sweet fuck all
All about the gear
All your stats come from your gear
ohh i see your level does not give base stats?
I think it does, but not enough to matter
thats rough lol
That's how mmos work
Not really, if you’re not geared up that’s on you
This was true for ShB but now it’s a decent time farming being level 90
Axtually most rpgs for that matter
well i figured for every mmo without gear your level gives just base stats
welp u learn sum new everyday
This has gear tho, so like
No, no it does not. This is a general stance for any content. Just because it's soloable does not automatically mean it's good to farm solo
Case in point that guy who soloed P1n, took forever
New unlimited mgp farm /s
if you pick any blue quests you see, you'll rarely miss anything when you finished the MSQ tracker
so you don't have to worry about not completing stuff later on, if that helps you
should i do all blue quest?
yeah, it's recommended
Pretty much yeah
!faq msqtracker <-- this is compulsory
-
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.
blue quests are recommended/important to do so
Literally zurvan Bismarck and Nidhogg take the same time (3 minutes) to solo it, sephirot will always stand out because it can and will one shit you if you don’t obey mechanics, I would reckon that it’s not really comparable to equal p1s soloing to HW EX’s
alright ill have to get on that
Pin, whatever
Dudes 68
if you don't pick them up, you'll miss it if you somehow doesn't go back to the older maps
-_-
!faq questicons
- These are how you reach the endgame and every other bit of content is locked behind it to some extent. MANDATORY
- These unlock a feature, instanced content, job actions, or a thing that is important for you to have. Do the ones related to your job/class and ones that unlock new content
- These usually have very little exp/gil as reward and are usually just part of the world/lore expansion. Mostly optional unless you are interested in doing them for the fluff
- These are quests you can do more than once, how often you can repeat it is up to the individual quest.
its hard to tell what ones unlock unless all blue unlock sum
should i sit in limsa and the other places and do all blue quest i see?
No
Some of them that seem like they don't unlock anything are prerequisites for beast tribes.
Do the story
But MSQ is your priority #1
that appear on your MSQ tracker are priority #2
Because those will include things like your job quests, which are mandatory.
can i overwrite content that i dont get early on say if i do all my msq and then go back will i miss outr
Content isn’t missable
Nothing is missable
Other than like seasonal events, because of course
you won’t miss out on content, save for possibly small dialogue references
The games producer/director fucking hates fomo
Outside seasonal events like Christmas and valentines basically nothing is missable
Even seasonal event rewards end up on the cash shop after a year.
and even then the stuff you get from seasonal events ends up in the store
So while you can miss the minor story, you can still get the rewards.
thank you for thee info
Level 22. Two questions. Whats the most reliable location for ash wood and when do I get a mount.
In pagos, is there a way to trigger a fate by killing a specific mob?
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.
That's how ALL fate spawn In eureka
Except bunny fates
Ok. Nice
Eureka trackers show what mobs and weather conditions are needed
And people can mark when it dies to track it's Cooldown
Ah right. What's the cd? 2 hours?
depends i think
Varies
So update, you cannot buy stuff from the online store if your subscription isn't active.

Can i fill my kettle/light at pyros, go to pagos and convert it into Frozen protean crystals?
Or I should fill it only in pagos?
It's different
Different kettle for different crystals
if i queue for the daily roulette with a premade party, do i still get the adventurer in need bonus?
If it's a full premade
No
how long does it take to skip the scholasticate quests
Skip?
like is it mostly text and trivial going to point x mostly
or is there instances that take up time
im just curious on how long would it take to skip all of it if I just want the chest
There's no instances
It's harry potter
But actually good
if I actually wanna go through it I'll do it in an alt
are extremes from ARR bascially dead content? Im queueing for them and nothing is popping up 😦
don't queue for extremes.
You don’t queue for EXs
wait why
I just don't feel like reading a lot of text if I don't have to
Make a PF or solo em later
Basically, if you can’t queue, unsync and find a party
Or do it yourself
Or not even unsync; you can just do the others
Because it’s hard content, and DF people are dumb
Cause you won't clear in duty finder
Cause people are allergic to doing mechanics
Which wipes the group
And no one listens to necessary communication in duty finder
NA servers use the party finder to look for extremes cause they can coordinate everything easier there, even if you wouldn't mind queuing you're not gonna get a queue since no one queues for extremes
oh dang
You'll que for 5 hours for an extreme, wipe once to the easiest mechanic and everyone bails
It's not fun
so my best bet is to do something like this?
i don't see why you wouldn't just do it the first time so you don't have to do it twice 
what is that command for 3rd circle savage again
i wanna do it for the challenge tho
!p3s
Then you'll want discords
Cause the amount of people who actually give a shit about synced old content is extremely low
And a very small minority
There isn’t one?
I have to be in a mood to put up with how unstimulating xiv can be especially in non msq quests that have no voice acting, the animations aren't good and the people say very simple things in huge paragraphs... my body can't take it sometimes.
i tried looking for recruiment threads but most of them are looking for late game raids
sadge
dang
its still kinda possible to find parties for synced content
especially at this hour
its possible but
can take a bit
If you're willing to wait forever
I always see one or two parties of synced content filling up at this hour
so I wouldn't say its impossible
what does this mean xD
they most likely moved to a different data center
It can't retrieve the name and data due to them transferring
could also mean they deleted their character
okie thanks !
Hey ffxiv community!
Just build my first pc, and im trying to download ffxiv on it. Any idea why it keeps saying unable to download patch?
Im running it as admin rn but idk if thats gonna fix it
!faq xivlauncher
Do you do more DPS on Bahamut or Phoenix considering Astral Flow?
Bahamut is six hits of 440 pot and one of 500 for 3150; Phoenix is six hits of 540 for 3240, so technically it's a bit more (autoattacks and Enkindle are identical). Bahamut is during 2-minute buff windows though.
Doesn’t baha have akh morn and death flare?
Also you always have to wait like 3 gcd to enter 2nd Bahamut?
Depends on how fast your GCD is
hey new guy here, I've been playing for a few days and I wanted to know if blacksmithing had any good uses
wanted to do something outside my dps
It makes gear and other things
You need all the crafters to be self sufficient
any methods to level it up
Crafting, leves, Turn ins
can I bind basic attack to a key?
why would you?
because I have a personal thing regarding clicking to attack?
They start the second you press a skill
Which you should be doing
ideally, you want to right click the target, but the difference is so small that if you don't do it
it won't matter
It’s only OCE servers currently
probably never
We’re not Square Enix so no

What should I do with capped tomestones (lvl 75) until I gain access to better gear to buy with them?
Use em’ for another job
guys, is the 2b outfit from copied factory still attainable ?
holy molly, is permanent? or time limited?
its an Alliance Raid
sooo its permanent? (im new)
yes, but you need to beat Shadowbringers to unlock it
was about to say, there is an Alexander dungeon?
If you hover over the duty it should tell you
yes it does
Take a screenshot and I’ll be able to tell which one it wants
Fist of the Father and Soul of the Creator
you're full
Also that
Reading
you can't just keep going and fill out everything
why there are second chances and such
You see that big 9/9 on the right
No
You’re done with that book
You get a completely new one
you choose the reward you get from your lines
That’s how RNG works, moving on
When you have between 2 and 7 stickers applied, you can use Second Chance points to shuffle their positions around and try to get more lines or a shape that could result in three lines. But once you set the 8th sticker, you can't move them around anymore, and once you set the 9th sticker it's time to turn it in for a new book.
Trying my hand at crafting, and can't figure it out... Trying to do the weaving starting thingie
Max quality for HQ item
Max progress to complete crafting
type /craftinglog -> look at the top -> choose weaver -> press the item you want -> gather the materials -> press synthesise -> do your crafting rotation
It’s not that complex
can i link an European square enix account to an Argentina steam account? i plan to buy the game on Argentina steam account.
afaik steam version isn't region locked
thank you!
Did you already buy the game off of steam?
so just choose the one from your steam store, then click purchase
It’s all about your SE region
So if you have don’t have an EU code, you can’t use it on an eu account
no didnt buy the game just still on my free trial
how do i link the SE account to steam after i buy the game from steam?
It should already be linked if you’re playing it
I believe, you just enter the code in your mogstation
then your SE Free Trial account will be converted to Steam
sorry me bit dumb x), so if i try to enter the code i got from argentina steam to my eroupean SE account it wont work?
steam doesn't care about your region
so i can play the game thro steam with these notices it doesnt matter?
the UI has changed since I registered.. you could try this
on your mogstation account
once you purchased the game from steam, login to your mogstation account, then choose "Registration code entry"
then enter the code you get from steam, then your free trial account will be converted into steam full game
!faq wondroustails
Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.
Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.
Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!
@leaden ginkgo
actually this is one of the rare kupo bot faq things that's actually kinda ass at explaining
it just doesn't say that you should reshuffle at 7 heh
there's no good reason to shuffle before 7
you should try playing in materia, every roulette you've done, there's always a first timer
so many sprouts, you'll cap 9 second chance immediately 😹
re savage loot. If I don't win any loot (except the book ofc) can I go into 1 chest parties and roll on that or are my attempts for the week gone?
just to make sure, i play free trial thro SE, i never played it thro steam, but i plan to buy the game from Steam argentina because of how cheap it is there, when i buy it there it should give me a code to enter in mogstation to upgrade my account to fullgame right. but this is argentia steam code, will it work on a EU SE account?
I know this info's somewhere in the game files, but I'm not sure where - are the cutscenes in the game pre-rendered video files, or are they created in-engine?
steam ignores region fam 👀 why ask again
ic ic
If you buy a South American code it’ll count as a American only code and won’t work on EU accounts
Purchases are region locked
rip
what does the little red symbol mean on the left
It means that's the one that will get you a Kupo of Fortune stamp.
You should always be doing the highest level one anyway

I can tseem to damage him very fast
I dont know what im doign wrong
all my gear is at teh righ telvel
to what?
the tataru boss encounterthing
Its level 50 Im levle 54
Im using a lvl 130 weapon
and im still not damaging him very fast
its one of the last seventh umbral era quests
ancient ways or somethign
Are you using all your skills
are you using your job stone
Who are you fighting exactly?
Just a spawned enemy for the quest
yes I have drg on
Send a picture of your inventory
Is it possible to dye the lv 80 Jobgear Armor from Shadowbringers
how? xD
There’s your answer
You need to repair your gear
Your accessories are broke
its literally only the one ring
Memória mísera Extreme
Not since ew
Right there was soemthign
OH jeez
You need to beat the Memoria Misera EX boss; it drops "idealized" coffers, which you can open for the appropriate type of gear. That's in the Bozja storyline.
They're dyeable by default now
I didnt realize the first hree rings were all borken
Oh, good to know
Where do I go to reapir stuff again?
Okie doke
Idealized gear is still the way to get dyed AF gear at 80
It mentioned something about reapiring my own gear?
Is that like armourer and stuff?
you need a leveled crafter to do that
You need all crafters leveled
im planning o gettng on that at some point so I should probably get back to that
to fully repair all gear you need everything except culinarian and alchemist
Im planning on getting alchemist tbh
well wait, does alchemist repair books
Since I have those music sheets I cant use
!item book of dzmael
I tried
Alchemist crafts books, so I assume it repairs them.
Each piece of gear belong to a crafting category like leatherworker. You can repair gear yourself up to 10 levels above the concerned crafting job with dark matter
everything except culinarian
So I should wait until HW to level crafters tho? I heard it gets easier
yes
ive just been completing hte logs for fun haha
you unlock the ideal leveling method at the end of 3.3 msq
“Ideal”
It’s braindead
GC deliveries and leves are better speedwise, but you also unlock some stuff from vendors with the restoration
I see
If you want to turn money into XP, there's levequests.
I liked Restoration because I wanted some of the items you can only get from it.
Right, leve quests you can skip the crafting phase
yeah there's mounts, glamour, emotes and dyes from that
What? challenge log, crafting log?
I was thinking of the people that sell ready-made "X crafter to Y level" levequest kits, actually.
Im a completionist haha
crafting log is a nice bonus but shouldn't be the priority
Yeah. I wanted the minions - Dress-Up Estinien is my jam.
Do you even have GC turn in or Ixal unlocked
That’s for crafting
I dont know what GC is
Grand company
grand company
Oh that
Ixal quests work pretty well for when you're bored with MSQ and want something else to do for a few days, in my experience.
I have that
supply and delivery missions
they reset daily and give a nice chunk of XP
Don’t
GC deliveries also give double xp for HQ items
all these people hating on ishgard restoration when it's literally a free ticket to level 60 in under 30 mins
lol
Turn ins are way better than GC leves
I mean theyre lijmited tho you cano nly do them onc ea day
SO after taht if you needmore
And it’s legit a free level up, every day
there's a crafting Beast Tribe every expac
LOL
Nice
Im gonna work on ixal at some point
Just eager to move on with the story
Im excited tounlock HW tonight
between ishgard restoration, GC dailies, and crafting beast tribes, leveling crafting is very easy
doing leves is pretty old fashioned, but works as well
You ain’t unlocking nothing until you figure out how to not let your gear break
that too
Im at the ver end of 2.55. I have 3 quets lefta fter this one before HW unlocks.
And yes I'll remember to repair my gear from now on. I usually just replace something but I was doing the world of darkness chain so I didnt bother
I might go and get some more ironworks gear before starting HW anyways
because I havent needed it? And its only for raids that level 130+ gear was required up to this point
I mean hell Im sure not Im the only player who doesnt ahve a full set of ironworks at this point
Most people do
Because better gear is better gear also all the lvl 50 content lets you have i130 stats
nothing requires it, it just makes your life easier and the gear lasts until literally the middle of heavensward anyway
So what do you do after middle of HW?
it's better than all the gear you get from story quests until level 55 ish
dungeon gear
you supplement with the story gear from quests and dungeons up until you unlock the level 60 poetics gear
MSQ quests in HW start giving you equipment. Actually, you should have some already.
