Bet bet thanks alot I get it now
So I'll be required to link my FFXIV account to my steam account even if I don't own the Steam version, right?
no
no matter what option do I choose after cancelling a sub, it still points me to here, and it always just renews my sub with no one time payment.
I probably missing something obvious here, but I can't seem to find it.
This is what shows up for me
It's another option, yes, but it's still a renew of the sub, not one time.
hi i see that the crafting gear (70 iLvl 350) isnt locked to certain crafters anymore, can i finally buy one set only and not 8?
also for 80 and 90 gear, altough not there yet :p
There isn’t universal 90 gear iirc, not yet anyway
Yeah
nice
Does the Squadron Battle Manual do nothing for Dungeons since they removed mob exp?
it does
it boost boss xp
all the mob xp went to bosses
and all xp buffs boost boss xp
I was reading some reddit stuff from a few years ago so thought I'd ask somewhere with more current information ❤️
It does overwrite the 5% from Free Company though, but still worth it I'm guessing.
Free company should be capable of getting a 10%
But yeah the manual is 15%
The same as a level 3 fc buff which are more work to get

ah I didn't know that. yeah my fc keeps the basic heat of battle rolling at all times.
Totally different question. Eureka starts at 70, and Bozja at 71?
Is there a reason to do one over the other? I've went through most of the Bozja storyline which was great, and was wondering if Eureka is a decent story.
They’re different relics entirely
Oh nvm. I get it now.
outside of their relics, Eureka's pretty good for money-making from my understanding while Bozja/Zadnor are good for leveling jobs
Eureka is like PotD type leveling.
poetics farming is decent in Bozja as well
No not at all
No I mean it's an independant leveling system.
so just got to lvl 60/70+ wiht gatherer but i only have lvl 50 gear.. where should i get new g ear?
Scrips
yes
I'm out of my dungeon and can read it a bit more. As always thank you for the information. ❤️ ❤️
can i go straight to lvl 80 scrips?
I mean you're not level 80 yet but yeah
**my botanist is 79 rn
Not like you’ll be able to gather stuff, without appropriate stats
rn whats the hardest/Easiest ultimate fight ?
easiest is uwu
hardest is TEA usually
ucob has its own difficultly with length, nael quotes and stuff
Thanks
So at level 30 when my lancer becomes dragoon, do I get anything new other than simply becoming a lancer?
Like any new skills or stat bonuses?
Access to new skills.
I mean skills that will instantly be usable at lv30?
!action Jump
Jump kind of is a core dps skill for DRG
But yes, you unlock more skills for your rotation that are DRG specific later on.
And cannot be used if you're not DRG
!action Galakrond
All the skills are listed there.
Does rdm lb3 count as a "caster" lb?
Sweet! So that would take care of the UWU mechanic right
yes
I didn't know uwu had a mechanic where you needed to be blind oops sorry just noticed this was questions-and-help
Does more of the MSQ get more voice overs the further I progress into the game? I just finished Stormblood and started on Shadowbringers, and so far I feel like there's more voice acting
yes
pretty much every expansion they are able to do more and more voice acting because of bigger budget
Nice. I love the voiced bits
So, I am farming the ARR horses, and I know that there are a totem pitty system for them but, do I only get totems if I am not going solo?
ARR didn’t have the token system. That only came with the Heavensward extreme trials.
Oooh
ARR drop rates however are higher so it shouldn’t take too long.
Then what do I do with these toten like drops I get from them?
Like a ||Heart of crags|| or ||eye of the worl||
Those are crafting materials you can use to make shiny versions of their weapons
It's for crafting
Oh I see
Those aren't totems, they're crafting materials for the crafted weapons/housing items
Also can be used for a step for Anima weapon
how so?
The umbrite/crystal sand step. You can exchange some of those materials for sands.
one of my friends got the full game and endwalker all on steam, so now she went from the free trial launcher to the full game one (since they are seperate on the library) and now she has to download 68gb is that correct? is it just updating the game with all the expansions or is it redownloading the entire game?
It’s adding everything you’re missing
Do we have an idea of when 6.1 drops?
mid-April
Was there any mention the new world status for materia will be gone in 6.1?
Don't think so
I figured, I just wasnt sure if it was that much, or if the extra content was already included before like some games do
why is my experience in rd and im not gettign any? i looked it up online and it says if you hit 60 and didnt register the key after early access well its a steam version of the game and i have registered im not even on endgame yet
are you on the free trial
no im a sub
You didn’t register EW
do you have Endwalker
There’s your answer
so i have to buy a exspansion i cant play yet becasue im not that far in the questline so i can get exp
You don’t need to be lvl 90 if you only have 60 content
You essentially only own ARR and HW. which the lvl cap is 60.
if you want to progress past level 60, you need to buy endwalker which gives both stormblood and shadowbringers and raises the lv cap to 90
so sigh i was right buy an exspansion i cant play yet becasue the mian questline wont take me there sigh
ok
If you really do not want to buy the expansion know and still want to utilise the exp properly, i suggest leveling another job and use that for msq
You don’t, materia is for lvl cap

thanks guys
I mean you'll get there eventually, but expacs are single-purchase, unlike subs
ya im just still waiting for the game to be more then a questline before i commit to anohter purchase and now i have to buy the new version that i wont even play yet to get xp so i can play it when i get more xp im not happy about that ugh so frustrating
thanks for the info guys appreciate it 🙂
I mean that’s why the trial exists, but whatever
again ive been a sub for two months not on a free trial sigh
The entire msq is pretty much questline like that
Everything else is considered optional content
It is a JRPG with MMO elements, not an MMORPG
Where do I start the HW alliance raids? I'm finally getting around to unlocking it
though only for a TT opponent 
Ishgard
!quest Sky Pirates
oh it's Sky Pirates, bet
The unquiet trader seems to be scanning the skies in silent desperation.
Unquiet Trader
Ishgard (X: 14.17 Y: 10.7)
Utata

need flight in sea of clouds
is there any way you can sync yourself to whatever level easily? to look at animations or whatever
FATEs or dungeons only pretty much
was thinking the easiest way to look is unrestricted party but synced down so you can go in alone at the level req
Explorer mode also
but you may die to a single pack, it's not like there's training dummies
Thats only like what, stormblood/shadobringer onwards
But it works
If the level you want is there
sadly no
explorer mode puts you at max level you got

so if you're 90
even if sync is on
you'll be 90 in the burn
they wanna see animations so like...it’s an option
By that question. Probably means syncing to see animations from lower level actions
might wanna see old anims
which tehy can't
cause no sync
so like
can't check rage of halone at 90 
you could do unrestricted party with sync on into a low level dungeon
Which actuslly on hindsight, you might just die after seeing that action
Assuming you wanna use it for gpose or something
Best dg/trial/raid x farm mahatma?
what?
tam tara/ifrit normal are pretty common choices
but ultimately whatever ARR instance you can solo quickly and you don't hate works
how do you get into the vc? they are locked for me?
Locked for everyone
locked for spoiler reasons
you don't because voice chat has been disabled for the time being
Read the pins
hmm why?
We just said why
.
ah k
I’m doing Zeta weapon, who’s the best dg x farm soul on each mahatma?
Tam-Tara
.
find out which extreme primal currently has the light bonus and spam that, most of them can be done in 10 seconds per run
Question about Legacy status:
I know I have a Legacy account.
What I don't know, is if the current character I have was my original character that's gone through a series a Fantasias over the years or if I rerolled early on in 2.0 and lost my tattoo.
The /legacymark command doesn't seem to do anything for me.
if legacymark command doesn't do anything then that character likely isn't your 1.0 character
what server is the character on?
just to make sure, you are looking at the back of your character without gear on when you use the command yes?
Is rival wings pvp mode dead? I queue up for it, but I never get in, I even waited 2 hours
I really want the mount out of it
No
Yes sir. 🙂
It kicks back up during revival wings and moogle tomes
its possible your 1.0 character is on a different server
Hey guys, I'm playing this game for the first time since 2016 and I have some account questions. Is it possible to change my square enix id? It's fairly cringey from back then and I'd love to change it, but if not, is it at least not visible to others? And what about my character name? I'll be playing tonight with 5 or 6 of my real life friends and I don't want them to see "Chaddius Stormblade"... thanks for any help
but ye sounds like that specific character is not your legacy one
When SE says it is
only other suggestion i have is double check your mount guide
and if you have legacy chocobo
Chaddius Stormblade
I think this is a wonderful name, @lusty girder
Lol thanks
anyway, to be actually helpful
you can change your character name
I dunno if you can change SE ID, but char name you can buy via mog station
your square enix ID however, i don't believe you can and no one can see that
its for you alone
Funnily enough, I do have that.
hm
Cool, so square enix id is kind of like a steam username
Changing your Character name costs money
weird that legacymark isn't working then
yes
nobody sees it, you're fine
I might try a support ticket, shot in the dark.
Are you getting a message saying the command isn’t available to you or anything
No feedback from entering the command
Thanks guys
And you are looking at the place the tattoo would be? Your back?
try /legacymark on
Yeah, no lucky. It's all good, ultimately my own fault if I ended up making a new character. 😛
for TCJ, do i basically cast suiton for ST and doton for AoE?

imo using
Ten Chi Jin
isn't worth using unless it's a boss and should be used in the order it's named
you should be using TCJ on trash
and yes, that's basically how you utilize it for single target and aoe
Is there a point to the forlorn maiden that pop during FATEs ? They don't even seem to grant FATE progress
they give you a buff when you kill them that increases the exp gained from the next fate you do
its 50% from forlon maiden, 250% from the forlorn
whens 6.1 coming out again? lotta cool games out this month so im enjoying the lull but getting that ffxiv itch again
mid-April
a friend is trying to put the end walker code from steam on the account thing and is not letting him
he already registered the other one
Are they a steam account
that steam gives
yes
he was able to register the first one
but the second one that is the end walker code dlc
is not working
:(
its a different tab
That’s the expansion code place
So it should work
Are you 100% sure they’re copying the EW code
yes sir
when he opens the steam game
it shows 2 codes
the first one for base game registration
and the2nd one i guess is the end walker code
so we putting that there

what does purple letter mean on a skill
Specialist
what does specialist mean in this case?
Stat boost and access to specialist skills
a minor stat bonus and access to some current content recipes
Which are essentially useless and really niche
oh, the soul of the crafter?
Yes
does Lost Death action work on bosses in DR normal?
You get to have 3 at once
assuming it also doesnt on critical engagements?
ok
Those snakes in the lower Zadnor CE works with death
If people struggled with dps checks for some reason
can you cheese some boss attacks in DR normal with lost reflect?
or is it not worth it
you can yes, like avowed's conal tb
Reflect is really only worth bringing to choctober
And ofc Drs where its mandatory
I won't say menenius since a light curtain is just way better
is there a map that lists the spawn locations of every enemy?
sorry, I can't find the liveletter ch so I'm linking it here for myself @_@ #translations-and-liveletters
looks like gamerescape is using something like it but idk if it’s custom made or taken from somewhere else
That’s where it is @main yoke
@pallid bluff that's only hunt marks, not every enemy
that’s 2nd cohort secutor spawn locations
then, is there one for hunt mark
For individual enemies yes
yea, I muted and hid it by accident that's why I couldn't find it LOL
whileI'm here - do we know when 6.1 will hit, or not really?
no exact date, right?
Having the locations of every hunt Mark at once would give like no information
They even said this
april 19th... I thought it was earlier
i swear I read something about it but scrolling up I can't find it :(
gah, probably my bad memory
i meant like a website where you can select which ones to highlight
april 19th is probably the most likely estimate

Anyone knows what this means?
I'm pretty confused installing this game. It's asking me for a "one-time password," and I understand what it is, but I have no idea where to locate it. It seems like I'd need to have an authenticator app or something
Ignore it
leave it blank
It's an optional field
Thanks!!
slaying gear is for melee dps right?
All except ninja yes
ty
is https://ff14fish.carbuncleplushy.com/ deprecated? I can't find Shadow Catfish on this...
A big fish tracker for FF14 that uses rarity to sort
and dragoon/reaper
ah so what would DRG get?
Maiming.
Anyone got tips for making gil as anewbie? There's a lot of glamour i wanna buy for my character so if anyone has tips i'd love to know ^^
As a newbie, basically just play the game and progress the story. The best gil-making avenues are going to basically need you to be completely caught up to current content.
Thanks ! I guess i can say goodbye to the beautiful Dalmascan outfit :p
No? Just get it later
The maximum level is 80 right?
90
Okay fair enough that's what i'm doing catching up ^^
Isn't a Dalmascan set cost like sub 100k 
That’s pocket change
I was looking just now and the top itself is 300k
Still pocket change
prolly different DC then
As i said i started the game yesterday so i have no idea the value of money. I came from swtor and it's kinda same 300k is nothing xD
So i guess i'll catch up 😄
thanks for the info 🙂
Hey guys, sorry for bombardment of technical questions but I keep getting this message when trying to sign into the launcher This service account does not have a valid FINAL FANTASY XIV license for this platform or your subscription has expired. I paid for 30 days via Steam about half an hour ago, do I need to wait longer than that?
why do sometimes accessories and left side gear durability go down at different speeds and sometimes it doesnt?
how do people manage to do the dead emote instantly?
like instantly falling over
its some sort of macro im pretty sure
Have the emote on your hotbar?
no that doesnt work
pretty sure its some macro that cancels the animation in a way
its some pretty advanced erping stuff i assume
damnit

Fallgourd Float; Mooch with a Striped Goby
Can I jump into another dps class? Or should I finish the main story first?
Anytime after lvl 10
Lv10 class quest done*
Is there a way to store flooring in the storeroom, or something else equivalent to putting them in aside from normal inventories?
This game is alt-unfriendly
You have like 0 reasons to make them
does augmented law's order gear give any bonuses?
Bozja haste bonus iirc
how much? Yeah I'm referring to the armor
I only made an alt on the JP datacenter so I could play as a trial during the queue-pocalypse. 🙂
Each point of haste reduces gcd by 0.02
*re: should I spend my bozjan coins from CLL to buy bozja gear
Experimental reasons I guess
Only spend coins if you want the glamour
so.... no..
there's no "experimental reason" to make an alt
Well, you need the augmented bozja if you want augmented laws order
Or just memeing with speed
this is an exceptionally, exceptionally alt unfriendly game.
Which is dyable
Just to keep in mind, leveling alt is tedious af compared to other MMO cuz you need to play whole MSQ again to unlock the game feature
Almost all new feature in this game is MSQ locked
Ah, that's certainly worth keeping in mind
I mean, you have to play the entire campaign again in every other MMO as well. That's not changed.
Can you do anything else with Bozja coins other than buying glamour?
Other than glamour and Bozja haste
I still have a lot of coins remaining from ShB
I uh.. buy the upgrade box and sell it at market... Around 150k-300k gil worth at JP DC
Regular coins buys the secrets to sell for money...gold and platinum can buy the early to rise hair
Oh cool
Platinum are super fucking worthless imho
What's the fastest way to farm for Resistance Weapon Relic second one-time grind?
Zadnor fates are definitely faster. Then you use raids to top up the last few CE related ones
Where and when can I get Raw Onyx?
ty ty
So, I got a Level 90 PLD with the crafted HQ gear, how hard would it be for me to solo farm the extreme mounts?
*HW extreme mounts
Alright then, guess I found my project for tomorrow
I see, nice
How to get better gear ? X.x
This one is job quest, right ? 😮
....
yes
Thanks :3
IMMEDIATELY
AYE SIR
You're really behind on them
And were kinda griefing
Since you were missing very critical skills
Like sheltron
Job quests are far more important than anything else due to giving you skills
I'll swape to SAM soon so didn't even wanted to start these but yea, guess I'll swap after reaching 60lvl first 😮
Literally doesn't matter
Do them or you're basically griefing in dungeons
People will notice and will kick
Especially if they play that job
Also, you can get SAM right now
A paladin not using sheltron at all is pretty damn noticeable
You’re level 50
Assuming they bought EW

Does anyone know what A Home in the Firmament unlocks?
Access to the ishgard housing area
Thanks
actually its part of the quests required to unlock the custom delivery npcs
how do i get a miqo'te gf?
not the channel for those kinds of silly questions
im kinda desperate

Have fun.
awesome 
will skybuilder stuff end once ishgard housing comes out?
no
No
restoration isn't going anywhere
It’ll never go away
oh good
Someone in your party also initiated a teleport but their offer didn't work on you because you were casting it as well
i'm not in a party
idk i switch regions and it fixed itself
but i've never had this happen before
but yeah i kept trying to teleport and that error just kept spamming itself

Hey, I just level boosted dark knight to 80 and I noticed that my HP is much lower than what I see on youtube videos, most videos of level 80 tanks have 100k+ hp and I'm not near that. Is there something I should be doing?
there was a stat squish with endwalker
so the numbers from old videos before endwalker aren't going to be relevant
Can you get bitter memories from lv 60 command squadron missions? Or do they have to be from duty finder dungeons?
I was wondering which version of Endwalker I should buy? I was waiting until I was way further in the story and now that I'm level 75 I finally feel ready
There's a digital collector edition for 60 and standard for 40
its up to you
the CE just gives cosmetic goods
so you have to decide for yourself whether those cosmetic items are worth 20$
The boxset looks cool right but thats sold out
So I'll just get the regular then!
The cosmetic items dont look as great for me in game
hi guys is this place to appy a position in a FC?
No this is #questions-and-help
10 hours for some hotfixes?
Implementing backend preparations for stuff like cross-DC travel
“Hotfixes” but really it’s a minor patch
oooh.....are they implementing it this patch? noice
ahhh. i see.

Where do I find the stat priorities for Conjurer and for Archer? I've tried googling and keep hitting arguing sites that also then break my browser...
How do I prioritize materia, then? I don't think it adds mind or dex...
materia is worthless until endgame.
You swap gear at the drop of a hat, remelding every time is just a waste
It's helped a fair bit on the gathering classes and some on the crafting... I just take it off before I move up gear unless I still need it for another lower class in the same category.
The difference is that with combat classes is that materia is turned off whenever you sync down
So whenever you do a roulette or dungeon that syncs you, the materia has no value
Even with gatherers/crafters you’re gonna just get better gear
materia. is worthless. as a combat job. until max level
the extra stats aren't worth anything at all
hi really interested in giving ffxiv a look. only wanted to ask,only the bard job can play with instruments right?
Correct
Yes, but you needt to start as an archer and get to level 30 to unlock it.
oh i see thx. i have only one more question the bard is like a healler/buffer? so lets say in dungeons/raids it fits best in healer and not dps right?
it's a dps
it's not a healer
it does do a lot of buffing but it fits into dps, and there is no support role here
It has some buffs, but it's not healer.
this is a hardline trinity mmo, yeah
oh ok. i see didnt expect bard to be a dps to be honest
Gotta remember this is final fantasy
It's ranged DPS
do other jobs have something special to them non-involved in combat like bard can play instruments?
Not really no
no, just bard
alright! thx for the info. just downloading the game. curious to see what's all the buzz is about(not implenenting that game is not good)
You are doing the trial right
Is there any way to dye the default form of a piece of gear? So that it appears as one way for the class that can wear what it's glamoured to, but still is a dyed version of the actual form for other classes?

didnt this used to heal?
That was merciful eyes
@whole mesa it used to give a buff that allowed you to use 1 of 2 skills
The heal being one of them
Its removed now
y tho
does 10% damage reduction even help
looks to me the main use is just the kenki boost
ye
didnt the damage reduction used to be higher too? unless im recalling wrong
I stopped playing back in 2014 and logging in again it's acting like my character doesn't exist. Was that too long ago to recover my character?
Characters don’t just disappear, so 2014 you must’ve done something
if you job skip to ARR, you get attuned to Foundation Aetheryte immediately?
ru in the right datacenter and world
For Anima Weapon grind, can you accrue the crystals from the first quest? IE have more than 1 of each (2 Water Luminous Crystals in inventory)?
yeah
ty
if you plan to make 3, just farm 3 from each zone
how many anima weps are there up to HW classes, 13 right?
If you MSQ skip ARR you’ll have attuned to every aetheryte present in ARR areas and will start on the first quest of heavensward to actually unlock ishgard
ok ty ty
Arr skip entails skipping all of 2.X content and placing you on the MSQ of 3.0
Anyone have a
Bozja pf icon I can download? Like this but higher res.
does queuing for dungeons take very long?
depends on your role, but nowadays no
It depends on your role and your server.
More popular roles (DPS) take longer than healer or tank roles.
On average, at least.
Sastasha is the first dungeon.
So you should have a decent queue time even as a Lancer.
alright ill wait a bit more thanks

I don't remember what my datacenter or world was. I feel like it would tell me if I had an existing character
End of the day I'm happy to start fresh, but I'm just a little sad I don't have my old friends list or anything
Log into mogstation
Then press on service account status
Ur characters should be shown there
^
This one
There u can see the server, then when u open the game, click on datacenter to pick the right one and then the right world, tada ur character should be there
just finished level 90 job quest with ninja, why cant i dye my samurai armor?
do the melee DPS role quest
isnt ninja a melee DPS?
They did
Try to pick up a new set of Sam armor to see if it’s just the item acting up
You sure it’s the AF gear you’re looking at
yeah, get a new set from the AF shop 👀
you could be possibly looking at the weathered stuff
chuck the old one you currently wearing
saotome set, yeah should be the level 89 one right?
this is weird lol
i checked the quest and i only have tank and ranged dps left, that means i already completed the melee one no?
and i did it with ninja about 10 mins ago, the indigo beast
Can you dye your own ninja armor ?
nvm i got it... im so dumb... i forgot to take the dye
are all active levequests available from the main city adventurer's guild npc? ie are the ones in towns mostly just for unlocking?
nope
unlocking each area unlocks those specific leves
so if you want lvl 40 leves gotta do the coerthas unlocks
in HW and beyond its just the main hub that has leves
right, but after i've unlocked them do i need to visit the town to accept the leve or are they all listed in the hubs?
need to visit the town
thanks, got it

Question, between all Relics, which is the faster/easier to get? Ranked from easy to hard AAR,HW,SB,ShB
How do I level a gatherer from 80-90? Im not getting as much exp from collectables which isnt worth it
ARR and eureka tend to be the most difficult for different reasons
ShB is not too bad but bozja is kinda rough for relics rn
HW is super easy to farm on the side but requires like 18k poetics
leves
From who ?
old sharlayan
ok ty
@modest igloo oki thx x the answer!
How do I unlock Gig for fishing? I thought it was through their job quests, but it does not appear to be according to the wiki...
are you in stormblood?
I'm in EW, my Fisher is 84, but I've never unlocked Gig
its in the turtle place for the unlock iirc
Does the 60 day game time code sold on the sqex store work for accounts subbed on mac?
ty, I will check
ah you are right, thanks
It should, yes.
If a GNB has a SCH/SGE shield like Adlo, does the shield get removed when the GNB hits superbolide, or does the shield remain up while their HP drops?
Ahh ok thank you 
shield is not hp so im pretty sure the shield stays
Still don’t understand the parsing percentage. When, say, I get a 70%, does it mean I performed better than 70% of the players with the same job on that specific fight?
That's what I was thinking, but I wasn't sure

was criterion going to be part of 6.1?
what skills is gunbreaker not immune to under the effects of superbolide?
if its like an instant wipe effect at cyrstal tower, does he withstand it?
Very specific ones
usually enrages and deathwalls
nope
its kinda like an "enrage lite"
ahhh so he cant tank the instant wipes but almost everything else should be okay?
yes
i see~
the only exceptions are things that are meant to wipe
is there a set dmg % increase per vuln stack, or does it vary depending on the duty?
also for SGE, toxicon is trash only right? basically on bosses you spam dosis, edosis, and phlegma
Do I lose road to 80 if I get one class to 80, or will I still have it for everything that's less than 80?
the latter
Ok thank goodness
you use toxicon to not cap on addersting
When you buy a game time card from se store, for how long will it be valid after purchase? Can I just put it away for a time or is it expires in a month or so.
it doesnt expire
yeah but like...youre not gonna be spamming ediag on bosses...are you?
im just using it on w2w pulls rn while spamming the uncapped circle aoe and then burning all the toxicon stacks at the end
well if youre ever using ediag more than 3 times on a boss
Thats not true tbh. Its fine for addersting to cap
Think of toxikon as sage's ruin 2
Its there but you don't wanna use it
Unless dungeons sorry
Eh nvm ignore what I said I just checked the potenciesn🥲
Speaking os sage, Is it just me or Pneuma is dps neutral vs Dosis assuming I dont need heal?
If yes, so I only use this on incoming raidwide?
oh at 70 toxicon 1 is lower pot than dosis. didnt see toxicon 2 is better
Its dps neutral at the end
For single target
So in dungeons, toxikon is a dps gain
In raids, its a movement/weaving tool
also, does sage itself actually benefit at all from your perseonal kardia buff (not hte tank buff one)
Well I usually likes to put eukrasia diagnosis on everywone after w2w before boss so I can have full stacks of toxicon if the boss going to use raidwide early
The toxicon stacks are handy if you need to move but the 1s window after dosis is not enough.
Considering you wont use ediag at all, in boss have 3x GCD dps dmg while moving (considering you usually only have 1 stack of phlegma) is handy
But you still don't want to specifically farm it outside prepull/down time
If anything its just kind of an indicator kardia is on
oh ediag the full party going into a boss is smart...ive just been e progging

shame only ediag gives addersting
Yes, but if the tank rush fast you usually only abke to shield 1-2 member XD
Also if boss is untargetable, i tend to use e diag too on eveyone esoecially if I am low on toxicon stacks. Just want to be careful if I need to move lel.
Also extra toxicon free after boss died will be "dps" gain for next w2w? Maybe
But in the end its "hardcoore" optimizing. Without it you are doing totally fine imo
figured the bigger eprog shield would be better, but the movement required to maintain dps is something i forgot about
guess it's cuz i havent gotten ot htat point yet...least hte burn wasnt really requiring it
given how often i swap from class to class, it's nice to build those habits while i can
I just love the ching sound when i got toxicon stack
in synced content im missing the ping and i was wondering why the tank hp was dropping

Its item level sync on top of the usual job level sync

where can i find the download? I already have a free trial account but i need to redownload the game
!faq freetrial
help! my game keeps crashing when i log in ;-; anyone else have this problem?
Update driver and/or OS (including optional updates), otherwise reinstall game
How do I get purple gatherer's scrips? Are they exchangeable with white scrips?
Custom deliveries with a lv 90 dol/DoH should give them too, right?
Err well, dol for gatherer
Custom Deliveries give purple scrips when giving out with selected max lvl job, otherwise they'll give xp + white
ah rip,, only level 90? not 81-90?
what can i do with my excess white scrips then? ive been collecting 71-81 collectables and ended up overcapping ;-;
buy folklore if you don't own them already, stock up on materia to either use yourself or sell
blue scrips for HW relics
what are folklore?
what are those for and where do i get them?
They're the items that give you the ability to see and gather from legendary nodes
You can exchange scrips for the folklore tokens at the scrip exchange, for the 90 stuff you talk to one of the npcs in radz-at-hans to exchange for the tome
uhh under what category is that
lv90 bait/tokens for the 90 stuff
oh okay
not really worth grabbing the other folklore stuff unless you wanna be a completionist
its gonna be a while before im 90 soo,,
how many of these am i suppose to get when i reach 90 anyway?
you need Token C for the EW nodes, Token B is for the SHB nodes
144 total Token C for all 9 EW folklore books
120 for the shb ones
is the mogstaion online store not working for anyone else

if i buy story skip do i have to buy a class skip also
Hey everyone! Sorry if this has been asked already, but I'm working on the ShB relics and I really like the look of the first stage of the weapon; will upgrading it replace the weapon and therefore make the first stage appearance unobtainable afterwards?
No you can buy replicas later
Once you get to augmented law order
Awesome, ty 
You should. Otherwise you have no jobs that can do whatever story you skipped to
Pretty much
Story skip doesn't give you any levels
So you 'can' just grind up after the fact but that kinda defeats the purpose of your initial skip
What's the current optimal way of gathering light for the Nexus Zodiac Weapon step? Considering we're now lv 90
Hasn't changed, ifirit normal or tam tara

Hello, I just unlocked the other guilds memberships I started as an arcanist. I’m not really sure but I’d there a good second guild for an arcanist to get ? I have access to all 3 big cities now and I still struggle to make a choice
M’y character is level 25 if that matters at all
You don't need them
Unless you want a completely other job
Character levels aren't a thing
It's job levels
Yeah that’s what I struggle to understand what are jobs ? Is it crafting or is it a different specialty for my character like tank or heals ?
You mean the class ?
Ohhhh thanks ! Putting it like that is much clearer suddenly ^^
Is there any limited to the jobs ?
Classes are just baby versions of their job, which is summoner for arcanist
You can by everything
!whoami
Yes
Oh wow
I was afraid to make a mistake by picking one but if I can get everything on one character then no mistake is made. Thanks a lot for your help ^^
Nothing is missable or locks you out
On swtor I’m such an altholic it’s like here they push you not be an altholic unless you rp
Your alts are other jobs on the same character
That’s literally the case. Unless you need to be on another data centre or something.
You can only group up with people on the same right ? So people in Dark with Dark and Light with Light right ?
Thanks a lot for clearing everything up ^^
Ah that’s pretty cool then, I have to say the waiting times for the duties I had to do yesterday were pretty long
That's normal for dps jobs
I’d love to heal tbh but I guess I’ll have to level up from 0 right ?
Unless you go to scholar when you get arcanist to 30
Because I read how arcanist unlock it at level 50 ?
Ah that was probably what I read then
Summoner/Scholar is also unique in that leveling one of them levels the other one automatically, since they both use "Arcanist" experience. So once you get to 30 and pick them both up, you can swap back and forth and progress equitably.
Thanks again for answering all questions ^^
No other class in the game behaves that way, and no future class will either, because the devs were trying branching classes and then went "...this is a horrible, horrible mistake".
High quality works the same as collectability for crafts?
Okay great, thanks
You do the exact same thing as collectibles

I was wondering also there was outfits on the website to purchase for money. I tried to look in game but there doesn’t seem to be an equivalent of the store
Like how does that work if I want to buy an outfit with real money does it just get delivered in my characters inventory?
It's mailed
You have to pick it up from the delivery moogles
That's the mail
And I guess I buy it once and it’s for one character or do I get it on other characters too ?
Depends
No outfits are account wide
It says on the description
It doesn’t really say anything about it, just about bonuses if you wear multiple pieces
Ah Thanks !
just tried it with 6 people.. not fun, and cant pass engels
12 sounds a good bet
I wasn’t logged so it didn’t show these details, thanks again for the help 🙂
Its been solod in savage
But like 3-5 to make it not 8 minutes
oh, normal
Still prolly 3-5 to make it snappy

I couldn't find any o2s solo vids to study 
is uwu just the first 3 primals ex with ultimate but together ?
No, not at all
any way to tell which duty has a bonus on nexus zodiac light?
Nope other than trying every duty, which isn’t worth
Lmao no
I mean if you super super super abstract it
Kinda
But you're also skipping the entire ultima phase
Also this guy
is there
Thanks !
i am /lookout on it, but it doesn't disappear
likely not lookout then, where is that at
there are like /lookout, /sit, /pray depends on the location
probably hotspring then iirc
hey guys, can you refund stuff to get your tomestones back?
I'm guessing probably not but that would be pretty cool
newp
second question now LMAO
what's the best way to farm them?
(in the post msq ARR content)
doing your daily roulettes
!faq poetics
how quick do you guys think it'd take to farm 4000 of them (full set + weapon)?
I have both healer and tank so I can repeat quests
you can passively get like... 800ish... just from dailies
assuming you do all of them
By spamming dungeons, probably an evening. Just doing dailies alone, few days with a lot less stress and time to do other things.
^
thanks for all the help!
Yo can anyone explain to me the free xp business? I've read that apparently if you're doing things on a maxed out role, the xp is divided between your others??
!faq armourybonus
'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'
As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 90 for the bonus to be active.
'How much is the bonus experience?'
You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 79, which then reduces to +50% for level 80 to 89. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.
Ty!
Is the "Level a new char on Materia to get 15 free days" promotion still on?
It's not a promotion, it's just the bonus for a New server
And they're still classed as new
Pretty sure you get an email about it
Job
Cool
Also is this because I haven't unlocked anything?
Or the whole data center only have 1 PF listing?
Well let's see, it's give or take 9am on a Sunday so people probably sleeping in
We were popping yesterday. 8pm specifically for Aether until almost midnight.

Nah it's an alt lol, trying to get 15 days and do Uldah questline
He doesnt have the level 52 DRG quest "Days of Azure" even though I meet all the criteria
anyone got any idea?
-
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.

Is every kind of treasure map worth it to do or are there some trashy ones?
There’s party maps and solo maps, so it depends on what you’re trying to get
if I want to start leveling an alt (new char, diff world) on my account, does my UI also copy over? like is my UI linked to my account as a whole, or is it per char...?
D: that's so frustrating
is there a way to make them sync?
or at least to copy everything I have from my main character over?
where do I find these files?
Documents > my games > ffxiv > whatever CHAR folder is your main
uh...
is there an easy way to figure out which one is my main LOL
i think this is a horrible sideproduct of trying the game, quitting, trying again, quitting
I moved some stuff aroudn on my HUD, does that... count?
none of the folders changed modify dates
As long as the game saves it
ah okay if I look inside each folder I can see the file*change dates
