story callbacks in EW
normal raid roulette
that too
already got that\
Alexander is the first series of raids that unlocks that roulette
normal raid =/ alliance raid
Normal Raid Roulette /=/ Alliance Raid Roulette
if you ever want to finish an anima weapon, you'd want all the Alex raids unlocked too
Alexander is 8 man raids, Crystal Tower is 24man
Also dope music
yeah i know you get the roulette after first quest
šŗ
you don't actually get it until the 2nd raid
alex is good story
fwiw there's also a good powerleveling spot in stormblood
but it's not as good as the shb one in ahm araeng
Iām trying to buy spring shoes from kasumi in the saucer, but I donāt see them. What do I need to do?
pretty sure that's one of the glams that required multiple weeks of clearing fashion report before they're buyable
spring bottoms is something like 5 weeks, idk about shoes but it's probably earlier than bottoms
Had a feeling... I just want some good sneakers TwT
300 points iirc
!iglam casual sneakers
!iglam casual boots
these are expensive but won't take you 3 weeks to get
They are indeed expensive. I just spent most of my gil on a casual jacket
does anyone know if the firmament/diadem stuff is going to be removed after ishgard housing comes?
think so
it's one of the easier ways to powerlevel crafting rn...doubt theyd delete that catchup mechanic
yes, even the achievements

I guess these can do until I have enough gil again
uh so this is weird.. but I have unlocked Labyrinthos's full aethercurrents, yet I can't fly.. when I hold down space bar i just jump?
Where in Labyrinthos? There's an area in it that doesn't allow flying towards the end of it's part of the MSQ.
do you have the weird flying settings ticked in character config
oh
i thought it was that dumb double jump setting
probably under controls in character config
its a tick im pretty sure
yeah it's set to the default one looks like

ok so double jump works but not auto
anyone knows on new mogstation page

wher my friend should put the recruit a friend code?
are the settings confused lmao
seems like
probably restarting should fix it
good game
owo anyone knows where my friend should but the recruit a friend code on the new page?
is it in enter item code?
or is in a option i dont see cause i cant put a recruit a friend code?
i think it's in mogstation probably?
somewhere on mogstation
thx a lot @strange coral
Do we have to pay for next expansion if we bought endwalker?
The one coming out April?
we won't be getting another expansion until like 2024 or something
Ok so they just adding to endwalker which we already paid for
yes
That's what patches are yes
Ty. Used to play eso hence why I ask
they make you pay for patches?
No but we only got new dungeons. Not new quests etc.
patches add dungeons, trials, raids, alliance raids, msq, and etc.
Ok brilliant ty I know now
Only some patches add new MSQ, which are usually the .0, .1, .2, .3 and so on, single x.N patches like .08 or .05 or like uhh... 0.15 dont have MSQ usually
I just discovered XIVAlexander and i want to ask just in case, it's totally fine to use it?
Because for me who has been playing with 160ms for 6 months is...
Oh my god
SE is not going to actively track every single player to find out whether or not they're using third party programs.
Just don't cheat using it and don't harass anyone while using it.
its fine..
if u worried like injecting app like xivalex, you can use noclippy plugin in xivlauncher.. its function the same
But this is just how i should be able to play the game, with almost any lag at all or double weaving
I didn't even knew this was the speed you were supposed to play
To finish the eureka questline (and Demi-ozma) do I need to make an eurekan weapon?
No
Thank god

Would you recommend one in specific or it doesn't matter at all?
It doesnt matters but i recommend noclippy
Cuz its braindead to set up
Just get xivlauncher and then get the noclippy link, copypaste it and use it in xivlauncher
noclippy is easier for me.. cause it automatically started everytime I log in.. no need to manually open it like xivalex
and from what I know xivalex had some "past" because it can be tampered easily.. noclippy is safer because its contained.. cmiiw
xivalex can easily be tampered to become a cheating tool
its default settings allow you to replicate "low lag" situations that most players already have access to
but tweak a few numbers and suddenly you can play with simulated 0 or even negative ping
"but negative ping doesn't make sense!"
So just donāt do that
Do you get a mount speed in Idyllshire at some point, or do you have to buy that one?
Idyllshire is a city so no
shouldn't they be able to tell if your doing something like that
I mean, yeah
But we're millions of millions of players
Imagine if they had to search every single one
Out of i dunno
Some thousands
It's one you can mount in, though, and it does have a single star in the mount speed thing.
then again i forgot to close cheat engine after using it to upgrade my weapon in code vein and it didn't yell at me]
As long as you didn't use it online it's an independent game
The answer is still no
many mmos will automatically close and report you if your running stuff like cheat engine or ahk
both of which i had running after a previous play session on other games
so ffxiv probably doesn't have that functionality
no it doesnt
You get it through msq, don't worry about it
i only use cheat offline i'm not a bitch who ruins other peoples fun for my own
SE has specifically said they are not going to try to find out what all third-party software a person is using, because
a) doing so would be a massive invasion of privacy and a gigantic logistical headache; and
b) technically sitting at your desk with a calculator and manually adding up every single entry in your Battle Log qualifies as using third-party software, and at that point we're in the in extremis territory and are being absurd
So it's a case of third-party software being against ToS, but unless you break another part of the ToS, like cheating or harassment, they aren't going to give a shit.
and maintaining that would require a dedicated team and a lot of money
That and the fact that things like Easy Anti Cheat are actually functionally awful
So, again, tl'dr
ugh don't get me sarted on anti cheat software
Do what you want, just don't be a dick about it.
i got flagged for alt tabbing in smite
no joke closed everything but steam and smite to check
anyways getting off topic so i'll stop here
is the lvl 69 Stb dungeon a leveling dungeon?
Is it a level cap?
anything that doesn't end in 0 is
If not its a levelling dungeon
just making sure, because the sync symbol throws me off
it's just a limit for gear since you can be 70 in it
You don't need to worry too much about the symbol ever
where's the setting that toggles inventory space warnings and whether they show?
nvm found it I'm just stupid
any suggestions on how to log into game when Sqaure Enix has account messed up with random log in restrictions
Can i level and safe up scrips for gatherers at level 72+ or is that too early?
*through collectibles
You can
But good payouts are pretty much all up towards cap, not counting custom deliveries
So doing my leves until.. 90? would be faster?
I'm saying that collectables won't give good scrips til ew
I'm confused... do i even need to get good gatherer gear to level to 90 or can i just ignore scrips until then?
you can spend white scrips on gear if you want
white scrips are basically the crafter/gatherer equivalent of poetics
the catchup currency
the "endgame" currency would be purple scrips
For samurai aoe which takes priority for kenki the dam buff for tenka goken or kyuten
can accursed hoard spawn in the starting room?
kaiten
always use kaiten for any iaijutsu you cast
š
shinten and kyuten are your spenders for leftover kenki, basically
I keep hearing that a mog event is coming up. Does anyone have a link to more info?
Here you go, sir/madam!
Thank you very much!
Still done in a minute or two

anyone knows
if a new player buys tales of adventurer
of dancer
can they use it even if they low lvl ? and not progged in msq?
There's no requirement to use it
they do have the expansions
about accursed hoards. If you use intuition and see a chest location but don't stand on it and go to the next floor, do you lose intuition?
u dont loose intuition till u go out or get to boss floor
I mean say that I use intuition to map out chest spawn locations
if it senses a spawn on floor 5, and I see the location, but I ignore it and go to the next floor, do I keep the intuition buff?
yeah
are techy questions allowed here? specifically about ff14
Technically yes but probably have better results In #technology-discussion
it's not hardware or anything so i'll ask here first
Tech involves everything
oh i'll ask there then
is there a bot command for the run down on each expansion's relic steps?
does deltascape v3 still give progress toward the tank achievement mounts?
yes
No, but if you search "FFXIV relic weapon", you'll get a consolegameswiki page with the overview of them all and links to more details inb4 Kat saying the site sucks
I mean that site does suck
since it loads in a bunch of ads at the bottom of the page >_>
Oh yeah I never see those because I have shit that removes them all.
You still had to deal with them at least once to remove them though
Hi guys! A question, if I have FFXIV in my PS4 and want to move to PC, do I need buy the whole game again, or are there any other methods?
Does this count paying the same amount as the game itself?
yes you have to buy the whole game again
complete edition
you don't need to buy sub time
just the game
So from here right?
It is the general opinion of this discord that consolegameswiki is a shit source of information for ff14
That is one option yes
You can also buy elsewhere and enter product codes on the initial login screen
Iām pretty sure clicking that just takes you to the square store anyway
Idk about those buttons but buying ce goodies are mogstation internal so I can't say for sure
I guess that's the only option isn't it? Buying it from other store and I'll have trouble logging in later on, or is it fine as long it's the same SE account?
Itās not
what you buy is a code that you then activate on mogstation
There are plenty of authorized third party sellers you can buy from
amazon, newegg, etc
you're just given a code for PC that you apply to your mogstation acct.
it has to be for the appropriate region
so if your account is North American, you need an NA code\

Alrighty then, thank you everyone
hey guys, do i need to be subbed to the game before i can purchase items on mogstation store?
how long do i usually need to wait after a home world transfer before i can buy something from mogstation? lodestone already updated to the current world
What is the best map to get Unhidden Leather maps from
hey anyone know whats causing steam to use the controller settings for a completely different game
No. You can buy stuff like glamour and mounts just fine.
Iirc you can't buy skips, eb packages and what not
No account wide items tho
not sure but my last two hw maps have dropped an unhidden so maybe those?
(solo and 8-person maps)
!faq sprout
The
or 'sprout' indicates that you are a new adventurer in the game and is only automatically removed when you have met the following criteria: 300 hours of playtime and completed the main scenario quest Death Unto Dawn.
The icon can also be manually removed by typing /nastatus off into your chat. This isn't typically recommended as it helps other players gauge your progress into the game.
Yeah, that's the final 5.55 quest š¤
Do you get the same rewards as you would with players when doing dungeons with NPCs (trust system) ?
the materia you get from extraction is it pure rng? or is it favored depending on job at the time of extraction?
The main difference between trust and player ran dungeons is that loot is slightly reduced in trusts since you're getting everything
largely rng, though you can only get certain materia based on the role of the gear. I.e can't spell speed materia from melee gear, or piety from non healer gear
ty!
Fantastic. Thank you.
How much GP do people have wearing endgame lvl 90 stuff?
You can hit 900 with melds and food
do fates give exp towards the FC?
iām trying to get trusted rep with the sahagin, but itās stuck on friendly?
do I need to wait to do quests again tomorrow to earn trusted rank?
should be a quest from novv to rank up
yea, i just finished that quest but never ranked up
Did you turn it in
yep
OH
no i didnāt lmao
i thought i did im just dumb thanks for pointing that out š

When do I need to finish Endwalker role quests by?
You donāt
theyre not mandatory
They arenāt required like Shb
I havenāt done mine yet
I was worried I had more required stuff to do lol
but you do wanna finish them for dyable job gear :3333
They just let you dye the gear
that can be done laterr
do frontlines give good exp? i'm lvling a ninja rn and i hate spamming dungeons
Yes
Donāt spam dungeons as a dps
I thought that dungeons give the most exp on average compared to other methods?
Though dps queues are long :/
Not for dps queues
there's nothing wrong with doing dungeons as dps
they just aren't recommended since the queues are generally 15+mins
but if you're not keen on spamming dungeons anyway
may as well utilize the other methods, doing potd/hoh/bozja or farming frontlines if that's your jam
do whatever you enjoy more
But the real question, are you doing dungeons at your level? Because it has to be asked
Usually, yeah
I'll do the odd low lvl dungeon if the roulette sends me there
are beast tribes and hunts worth doing on the side? i don't mind doing those on occasion
Yes, beast tribes are very good xp for how fast they are
yes
hw+, they're generally worth doing
its the ARR ones that are kind of meh since they don't have level sync on them
Yeah those seemed lackluster
is this "https system error" on link currently a known issue? I can't log in at all
Alright so, I know that the level 50/60/70 dungeons aren't worth the exp, but what about the 49/59/69?
Alright, the item sync always threw me off
when mounts drop from extreme trials, are they a seperate coffer or included with everything else?
Included with everything
Does your Steam Display name currently have non-ASCII characters? Things like accents/emojis/blocks/language-specific characters
That is currently causing errors for some people
Does Castrum, and Praetorium count as lvl 50 dungeons for the wonderous tails?
Yes
Theyāre dungeons so yeah
Yeah, but they are separate from the others in the roulette, so I had to be sure.
is it possible to get primal materials from desynthing shields especially?
yeah I'll try swapping it, thanks
not anymore
go for the pld sword instead
sad

for people having trouble with steam and you dont have special character in ur user / special character fix didnt work i got this email about fixing ur game
After DC travel is here, cross DC static should be viable right?
no info on that yet
Sad
Iām wondering if once cross DC statics are possible, more niche statics can be more easily formed
Like a static to do coils Min ilv
We do know that you can join a CWLS while using DC travel but it'll only work while you're on that DC.
So, yeah, might be possible.
Nice
Granted a Static mostly functions in discord anyway
You just need 8 people on the same DC on raid time
is there any way to use powerful or precise hookset without using either patience?
!action powerful hookset
Afaict, no
Yes absolutely
Not sure why you got uncertain answers
It has been made very clear by the devs that that will be possible and is, like, the kind of thing the system is being made for.
Yeah, make sense
It's really social events and raiding events that benefit the most from DC travel
anyone help with POTD im trying to get to level 50 currently at 11-20
Your character are actually in the DC you travel to
It is not some weird thing where your character make a puppet in the other DC and then your button presses goes from you to your original DC then to the current DC
queue for a matched party
I am Iām sitting in queue for 41 min
As long as you have steady and reliable ping between you and the other DC
No one is playing the 11-20
Is there a discord with vc and active for ffxiv?
You will be fine
š
probably many in #resources
Can u guys help me clear the floor fast?
Okay anyone else?
Why are people able to buy cleared out land in Gridania and Limsa? I thought the idea was that those demolished lands were kept off until 6.1
What?
whats worth buying first with 70 crafting scrip gear
tool or armor
Oh youāre confused because of Oceania datacentres
Oceania datacentres have housing purchases turned off until 6.1
Everywhere else is as normal
The lottery system for housing purchases will be introduced with 6.1 but in the meantime the system is as normal
If I just buy this will I have a PC license for XIV? I already have the full game on console
You also need a Starter edition license for PC
What is a starter edition license? Does that cost extra money?
The base game, yes
you need the base game on pc
A Realm Reborn
You can also buy Complete Edition which combines starter and Endwalker into one purchase
Don't we have a faq for this?
This?
Yeah
To play everything on both PC and console
You have to double dip
There's no other way
So I just buy it and then install? Idk Iām a dumbass lmao
I know nothing about PCs
Can I do checkout as guest can I still download it?
so I had a chance to buy it? I have got to be the biggest idiot on this existence
You get the code emailed to you
Okay ez
anyone knows if bard's esuna works for DRN queen's cleaning strike?
Is there a way to have your current equipped gear be the glamour you choose for that job? Like I have the P4S chest piece for tank but have 3 other plates for my other tanks. Is it possible to have this chest piece as a glam for one of them?
I believe if you put the item in the Dresser, set up the plate the way you want, and then pull the item back out, the plate will still function.
I wouldn't mind being checked on that answer, though.
Oo thats smart

yes you can remove items from the dresser if theyre on a plate
what should i buy first with 70 crafting scrip, tool or clothing
If you're leveling all your crafters at once, probably clothing
how to locate job quest? ive finished end walker ms and now the scenario guide doesnt show me anything......
I don't believe there's another conclusion to the job quests
Important stuff like jobquest is below the tracker
Role quests don't show up there tho
the job quest ends at 70
well there's a bonus in shadowbringers that technically brings the whole thing to a close
crafting and gathering job ends at 70
yep.
Oh yeah, I got a question, are the Sharlyan facets of crafting or whatever they're called split up into the same categories of jobs as the Shadowbringers facets?
Like how one of the shadowbringers facets was for leatherworker, blacksmith and armorer iirc, is that still the same for the endwalker one or did they switch up all the jobs
only way to obtain gatherer's materia X is purple script?
I think probably spiritbond too.
same as how you could get grade 8 materia through lucky spiritbond extraction in shadowbringers.
thxs
Does AST synastry stack in the sense if i heal the target with the buff, theyll heal for 140%?
How do I get rid of this cross hotbar? Iām fine with the other ones I just want to get rid of this one
Manually remove all the skills
Well that was easy
It will be a two-packet heal: one with the heal and one for Synastry.
cool thats what i wanted to know. only works on gcds too, by the wording?
yes
what's the food and pot for gatherer?
Is there a way to make command missions easier as dps, the healer wont heal ;w;
dont play a dps
rip

Or dodge the unnecessary damage.
What do you think would be faster levelling a member of a squad to 50 or just brute forcing it with dps rn? cause I levelled 2 tanks instead of 2 dps, now im forced to play dps on the command mission
oh wait, would going red mage or summoner be viable to heal?
You can't run a dps as a healer, roles are fixed
They do but they are horrendously uneffective.
Yes very little thou
cause im too lazy to level a dps in squadron
I'll try i guess
You get a single heal ability iirc
level a healer, play as one cus your own survival matter, you die, reset boss fight
Summoner's heal scales off of Mind, which they don't have, and although RDM's does scale off of Intelligence, it's not worth it whatsoever except as a way to proc Dualcast without a target.
Rdm gets theirs at 50+ thou
I see, I'll see what i can come up with i guess
RDM heal might be sliiiightly useful in situations where the healers are dead or in the process of resurrecting themselves
You could level scholar, since that also levels summoner, so you get a dps that way
or if the healers are dead without a way of recovery, such as on fights where falling off the platform does not recover your corpse
no no, i have it levelled, what i meant was I dont have a squadron dps levelled so i have to fill in as dps
But again, if you're running command missions specifically, the only way to make the AI more effective is to keep running command missions and hope they get ranks-up in the appropriate stances, and to be careful.
Anyone have a list of BLU BiS 70 gear?
although i think all fights that dont recover your corpse are on level 50 and you dont have your heal then heh
Roger
true
They don't have any good tools to work with, and they're only programmed so well, so if you get overzealous and try to force large pulls, you're going to have a bad time.
note however that this is basically tiny percentage points of difference

RECENT CHANGES
This sheet is now considered finished, with the optimized sets and spell setups for roles that have gone through thorough testing.
If you h...
and if you just equip full scaevan you're good to go
Nothing more optimal?
i just linked you the document for 'optimal'
but i'm saying it's not worth bothering with really
scaevan is good enough
Fair. I was taking what you said at face value. But I'm gonna do optimal anyway.
@inner bane There's literally a channel to ask questions here. Don't DM me
As for how to change your hairstyle/color, there's a lv 15 quest that unlocks an NPC called an Aesthetician
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Beauty_Is_Only_Scalp_Deep
oh sry
yeah for squads tbh best bet is either archer + arcanist 60% dps, or double arcanist
i got a glad, archer and arcanist at 60% dmg and it's amazing lol...like 13min vault runs or so
How do you get to the doman enclave?
I've been looking everywhere.
It says online to use teleport menu but I don't see it there.
And I do all the side quests. So there's nothing in mor Dona
Have you actually reached it in the msq
I'm in post.
And you didnāt attune to the big blue rock
is there an autorun where i dont have to constantly hold W?
I must have assumed it was an instanced area for msq.
And not looked for an aetherite.
R (I think) or m3 on pc by default
If not aetheryte, then southwest of Yanxia
South of the namazus
Oh I see it. I was looking by ||castle doma duty entrance||
Wrong docks.
Much appreciated.
There's no aetherite here. Or any quests. I'm so confused.
Yea there's only a TT NPC
do i have to worry about gearing while at lvl 30? or do i just use whatever the npc's give to me?
MSQ gear supplemented with dungeon drops is fine
Okay. Change of question. How do you unlock doman enclave?
theres a yellow quest chain u need before u can do it too
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Doman_Enclave_Reconstruction i followed this when i did it
I've done every quest available.
it's a mor dhona quest
I've done every quest available everywhere.
Might be gated by post-SB progress then 
u do need a 4.2 MSQ quest done in post SB
I'm at ||Hope on the Waves||
oh yeah the next msq quest is required lol
Literally the next quest 
Lol if I waited one msq lol
but yeah consolegames wiki is pretty accurate about quest unlocks
de[pends on definition of next in thish context, but whatever
I wouldn't even know the quest to look up for prerequisites.
u just google the thing...and then click the quests on the page desciprion in question
I wouldn't know the thing to Google.
Looky there, itās the aetheryte I mentioned
I looked up how to unlock doman enclave and all I saw was "get to post and use tp menu"
learning to google is honestly just a needed life skill at this point
But yea. There's no aetherite there rn.
Yes, because itās msq locked as I said earlier
I'm very confused but okay.
maybe cuz work necessitates i google a ton this is just second nature to me at this point
it's just googling relevant result terms till you find what youre looking for
Thereās nothing to be confused about, do the story and stuff unlocks
I-I get that already.
hi for the bosom buddies challenge it says deafeat enemies of comparable level to your own with companion but i'm level level 70 does that mean i have to find level 70 enemies?
You should always assume that if you do not see the preq or quests available on the map, that means you haven't progressed far enough in the story.
u can just do fates if u dont want to
the level sync lets all fate mobs count towards that thing
ohh ur right!Tyty
but for overworld stuff, it's mobs within a certain level range...never bothered with the specifics
id imagine 3-5 level range is fine? cuz fate mobs are usually 3 levels under

what's the best dps at lvl 50? is it reaper?
Reaper starts at 70
no i mean scaled down
hmm okay
Im doing command missions right now as DPS, what DPS would you recommend?
Oh I wouldn't know I don't do command missions I'm sorry T.T
BRD or SMN, basically range or caster
It's okay ^^
really? wouldnt melee deal more damage
Alot of the melee dps feel bland at 50. They don't really "shine" until 70+
Alot of their important skills aren't there
since you are melee, you might want to come ahead the AI tank and lure bunch of mob to maximize your AOE skill and ability
and that is where problem happen, you can be overwhelmed very easy and die
and that is the worst part of command mission, AI die, who care but you die, reset
ooh okay thanks for the help people ^^
if I use an aoe as bard does the warrior tank it for me?
(and use an aoe skill)?
the AI tank will turn on tank stance and use aoe to keep the argo and maintain it, however, it can not react fast enough if you try to lure more
for example, you run ahead and lure a range and caster monsters, the AI tank need 5-6 seconds to put itself at the top of enmity list for all of them
you need to kind of run to survive in those time or the burst damage kill you
do i need to put on the ||sophist's clothing|| before continuing on?
no
which is why you might need to play slower than normal, especially as a DPS, even as a tank, if you run too fast, the AI healer cant keep up
Roger
When I ran squadrons as dps, each run was 15mins or so
Also, when i was fighting a mini boss, the healer just refused to heal. do i have to do somethign to get her to heal or something
yeah that was my average too
About the same as regular dungeoning, I think 
i think it is a threshold thing, like below 50% for example, which also mean it might be too late as you take too many damage too fast plus latency that you die even before the healer start healing
ohh thanks

How long should it take for a mount to be delivered from the online store?
up to 24 hours afaik
run a few roulettes, check the mailbox and click ask for delivery every once in a while and see if it's delivered

Is it better to spend seals on the ARR material mount/minion or the SB one?
It all depends on your personal preference on if you like the mounts in arr or sb better
the Sb is probably slightly better in terms of gil wise
since those ones are relatively "newer" less farming
wouldnt bank on getting mounts from those tbh, they're fairly low
Oh thatās what you meant
yeah haha
Mounts cannot be sold on the market board
oh wth didnt know that
Some of them can be yes
Wait, which ones?
the ones in the containers are the tradeable ones from those expacs
Expacs?
expansions
Expansions
Ohhhh
https://ffxivcollect.com/mounts you can filter by tradeable
30
oh thought it's like potd
checkpoint is at 51-60, but stories continued till floor 100
They didnt want to make it as tedious as potd

oh wait checkpoint is 21-30?
o_o
I'm still climbing at floor 11 now haha

if a queue pops during a cutscene, is there any easy way to replay it or should i just look it up on youtube?
is there any content/features slated for 6.1 but not releasing at 6.1 exactly (6.15, 6.18)
There's a book in Inn rooms called unending journey
U can watch em there
nice, thank you!
My healer died in my command mission run, am i screwed?
is job AF gear enough for retainers to run highest content rn
I've done up to the lv46 MSQ and I'm lv46 but now it says i need to be lv49 to continue with the MSQ. What do I do now?
New Ultimate is scheduled for 6.11
New custom delivery NPC is scheduled for 6.15

It acts like Phoenix Down

How long does it take for a gift delivery to be received?
I punched it in about an hour and a half ago
No luck so far
up to 24 hours
this is the only one I have available, is that right?
it seems to be lv16
Yes
there are more but you will need to unlock more duties to unlock those
It just means the minimum level for that is 16
Dear God
spam ask for delivery for good measure 
If I send my troops to a squadron mission, i cant use them for a command mission right?
How do I do that?
Correct
why cant i summon my mount?
Are u in a city
no
What's the error message when u summon it?
Did you get the mount from any collector's edition? If so you may need to unlock mounts in general first
aka unlocking your chocobo
i did this quest to get a unicorn mount lol
Yes but did you unlock your chocobo?
Oh you need the chocobo first
You can't use any mount before unlocking the company chocobo
How do I beat Zu? the chickens keep aggroing me, im not destroying the eggs
!faq mount
use the whistle
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.
I'm in the process of trying to level all my doh/dol classes via ishgard restoration / the firmament, and I find I'm constantly swimming in an inventory chock full of junk (like 2 pages worth) and I'm wondering if anybody has advice on ways to mitigate this problem?
I have space in my retainers' inventories but with how constantly I'm using a lot of this stuff, and how hard it is to keep track of what I need and what I don't, it seems like keeping it all on hand is just simplest.
I've thought about tossing out / storing away all non-approved items until I'm ready to go to the diadem again, perhaps that will help...
I always store things with retainers until i go and craft
only way to mitigate this would be to properly manage all your available inventory space, including the chocobo saddlebag and any available retainers
which of course can be a pain in the ass, but that's the life of an omnicrafter
Trust me, I'm an inventory management crackhead
I usually camp next to the retainer bell to pick stuff up when i craft
it's why having my main inventory so full gives me an aneurism lol
Well in that case you are probably doing all you effectively can do
returner status
just thought I'd throw the question out there in case there's something obvious I'm missing /haven't considered
someone who didn't log in for a while
No
no
I have that icon so I think that's correct
I took like an 8 month break and just came back a week ago
Funnily enough you can actually get the returner status and then revert back to sprout once the time for the returner status is up
assuming you never got past the sprout earlier
Oh, fair enough
My endgoal as a humble and dumb Sprout is to hopefully become a Battle Mentor that helps other sprouts
I thought that icon meant another kind of Mentor
nah, mentors always have a variation of the 
A noble goal, I hope most mentors have your mindset
Mentor seems like it would be something really cool to strive for one day, but for now I'm setting the humble goal of max leveling my main class and all crafting / gathering classes, and finishing msq lol
a couple days ago I got my MIN to lvl80 and I'm like oh god, 40 dollar purchase incoming
It's not like being a mentor comes with any perks tbh (unless you consider access to novice network and mentor roulette those)
I think the issue with most mentors is that they tend to just use the crown as a 'Status Symbol'
And while the game tries to make a point about how it does come with responsibilities it's not like they are enforced in any way
Resulting in many mentors being uhm... kinda shit
The crown or a variation of the crown should probably be a thing to denote a Mentor that's on-call/on-duty
I'd say social prestige / bragging rights is a perk, maybe not a tangible one but a perk all the same
I ran into some Trade Mentors in my FC and they're all suuuuuper nice
Not really? The requirements for becoming a mentor mostly require time investment
no skill needed
The only thing the crown does tell other people without a doubt is that you have spent quite a while with this game
Now if you actually know your shit that's another thing entirely
what happens if I cancel my subscription in xiv
Can't play
can't log in anymore once it runs out
idk I think that's pretty cool š¤·āāļø maybe some people would think it's a no-life posting-your-own-Ls kinda thing but I think it's pretty cool, it's impressive to me
So, what would you say is ideal for a Battle Mentor (PvE) to know?
Like Savage Raids and whatnot?
Well you can't expect a mentor to know everything of course
I thought that was pretty obvious, I mean it more like... do I get to idk, "reactivate" the playtime I have left at a later point
I think it's more about the mindset of actually trying to be helpful and trying to improve what other people are doing
oh, if you cancel your subscription, it continues until the end of the paid period
You don't lose the current time you.have
No one should expect you to carry a duty or something, that's not the point
Battle mentor doesn't need to know high-end content
The requirements aren't hard
anyone remember when was auto-overmelding implemented?
Yeah the requirements do not even include high end battle content
i keep getting this ;-; what does it mean and how do i fix it
basically just clear any instance that is included in mentor roulette once
I think it would be cool if there were two separate titles, like "master" and "mentor" and mentor came with actual obligations
that's the requirements for battle mentor
but yeah, it's just a symbol, doesn't mean anything
Yeah, that's more-or-less my goal to hit. I really wanna help out the sprouts like my FC mentors helped me out!
That is not the requirement currently, unless you mean it should be one
not sure
U can help out without burger king crown
oh you are right, you need to clear the lv <90 any ex/normal to unlock the mentor roulette, not to become the mentor itself
oh so, I can keep my playtime for later?
I haven't met many mentors while playing, but I can imagine some of them are incredibly toxic
correct, mentor roulette is a separate thing entirely
There's no pause
They tend to have a bad rep because of that, yes.
Mentor is something p much anyone can get by just playing the game
Finish the game, lvl like 3 jobs to 90 and farm Comms
definitely feel like the game should have subscription pausing, especially considering it has a base price in addition to a monthly fee, kinda feels like the least they could do. Not that I wish to turn this into #rants
Well you can pause your sub ofc, you just can't pause it in the middle of the current period or get your money back for days you have already paid for

Try updating driving, check for OS updates (optional ones as well), otherwise reinstall game
Dx11 crashes is usually drivers
would Bozja as Smn or dungeons as Sch be faster to level?
Dungeons
Tfw copperbell mines (hard) the squadron tank doesnt lure it to the bomb
just end me
i can use the target enemy on the bomb?
They might kill it
Use engage/disengage
hmm okay i'll try
Disengage makes them.follow you
is there a way to get the minimap to show hunting log targets again? i don't lnow how i turned them off
it only shows mobs on the minimap if they're for a quest
you'll have to explore yourself using the hunting log as a hint to find where the monsters are
(or just look it up)
hmm ok thanks, i was sure it had log targets before but maybe i was mixing them up with quest mobs.
Your first quest as a new class involve like 2-3 hunting targets, after that initial one, the list is almost independent of job quest
š” of course!
how on earth do I use this? http://ffxivsquadron.com/
Manage your squadron and find automatically the best combinations for the hardest missions.
not working or am I dumb
click the solve button?
Thats what it shows after I click solve
what are you trying to do?
you entered the training stats wrong
go to the bulletin board and go to the training menu where you would adjust the stats
and enter those numbers
well, I swapped. it now says
So I guess it's working? it's giving me a message at least
yep
alright
yup, you only put in 4 squad members? you dont have 8?
you need higher levels or see if other classes can get the stats
I only have 4
do your challenge log to get more
gold saucer category has a giant recruit pool and very easy things to complete
cool
basically all the challenge log categories but eureka and maybe like one other have the chance to give recruits
hmm it works now when I recruited 2 more
hows that work?
or each member has their own stats
it should tell you which you need to take
Stats are fixed per class, only the appearance differ (some with unique)
you choose 4 out of all ur members
each class has a different lean towards different stats
the race/name of the recruit doesn't change their stats
see where it says Squadron on the right, itll show which classes you need to send
but race can be a deciding factor for activating chemistries
yeah missions can have "affinities" listed in them
which will give bonuses to some races or classes
they can also happen naturally without the affinities, but with a lower success rate and a stipulation
things like "If there's a lalafell in the active squadron" or "if there's another active recruit the same class as me"

I need fire crystals, what are the fastest ways to get plenty of them?
marketboard
Hmm? U can buy crystals from MB?
... WTF?
do i have to worry about materia while lvling?
believe it or not, people cap it :p
No
no, only use materia when you reached lv 90
Materia is an endgame thing
Never
U can sell combat materias I, and II on MB though, since ARR relics uses them, so they sell decently well
okay sick bc it is confusing as
It's literally just putting extra stats into gear
yeah no worries, for lower level, just focus on getting higher ilvl gear
u can keep/sell crafting materias V and VII as they're currently used for overmelding endgame crafting sets
Are there any valuable gatherable materials in ARR/HW zones, or is it all just for levelling gathering jobs, and you start making money at max level gathering only in latest endgame zones?
Low level mats can make money cause people are lazy
So they just buy them instead of getting it themselves
yeah, but it depends on the server
not like in WoW
Cause people are lazy
Like in any game
So they buy what they need to level themselves
No
rip
i keep getting this error at MogStation
trying to renew my ff14 game time cause i yhave 1 day left
are you on vpn? could also try another browser/mobile
my account is set to crysta
if i pay using cysta is it same price like the 6 month sub?
nopes~ i tried using a different browser as well
but is it an actual strategy you can follow to make gil by farming low level mats? Or is it bad compared to farming endgame mats
you know I don't like when old content gets "irrelevant" that's why I am asking
would be nice if all mats were relevant so you can farm wherever you want
See what's selling on market and get it
a couple pre-50 items have consistent demand due to being re-used a bit for crafting recipes
silver ore, mythril ore, cobalt ore, darksteel ore, gold ore
granite sees decent use for housing furniture
is their a way to see the stats of an item in your Glamour dresser without having to remove the item from it?
You can just look up the item
if the glamour dresser allows you to right-click the item to link it, then do that
you can then click the linked item in the chat box to see the stats
what's the best thing to get from wondrous tails?
oh thanks, thats easier then typing each one into google
Subjective. gold certificates are rare as fuck so get that immediately

what is this ?
sidequest
connects the endwalker stuff and the stormblood raids
just a story ?
yep
thanks
at least thats what we know for now
what does gold certificate do?
all are master recipe collectables? even the ARR one?
You trade it to khloe for things, just like the other certificates
thanks
No, itās just normal recipes
ah ok, and they don't get ticked in crafting log yeah?
cause I remember crafting this shoes, but somehow It didn't get ticked >.>
They do not no
the big winners are the exclusive mounts from it, like Calydontis or Incitatus
basically all crafting recipe that doesn't give much exp doesn't get ticked?
like normal recipe lv 80 will get ticked or not? š¤
What? Youāre not doing master recipes for exp, theyāre at lvl cap for a reason
Only normal/leveling recipes and the housing section of recipes have a completion bonus and count towards the achievements that want x unique items crafted
ok ty ty
Go to your hud settings
do you know what it's called?
hey so im new to the game and uh is it too early to ask for the best way to get gil when im only at level 11? should I just progress through the msqās for now?
Do the msq
got it thanks
You frankly never need that much Gil anyway
by the time you finish msq you have around 3 mil
holy alright, yeah sorry just new to mmos this is my first so im trying to figure stuff out, thanks
!faq newplayertips
already watched a ton of videos but iāll give that a read as well, I appreciate it!
XIV is not like most MMOs, especially when it comes to the value of in-game currency.
good to know
in the action and trait, you can bring the entire bar on your hotbar as the command ui can sometimes be moved accidentally when you click too fast, this way you dont even need it anymore
Is there a mentor that I can ask a personal question about in game
Thanks a lot
Just ask the question
Consider all of us here to be mentors, of a sort.
The ones with the role are just... more mentor-y.
I was hoping to dm someone about it honestly
Just ask, itās way easier
How personal is this question that you wanted it to be in DMs?
I think I have a stalker in game and I don't know what to do about it
Also like weāre in a bot wave, so people are disabling DMs anyway
Report em
There's unfortunately not a lot you can do about a stalker in game. The only real way to avoid them is to transfer to another datacenter and change your name.
You can report them for harassment, but if there's no conversation log data, then SE can't do much about it.
you can make their character disappear from the gameworld entirely, with an addon
Outside of that, you can Blacklist them so you won't see any whispers or conversations from them, and they won't be able to join any PF that you create.
You might still see them in DF groups though, since those are randomly assembled, but the chances of that are much lower.
Like they were cool at first but then they started getting pushy and constantly messaging me trying to make me rush through the MSQ and following me around it's really hard to enjoy the game like that when they are doing that and I don't know what to do about it they were helpful at first showing me alot of cool stuff but now they are kinda making me uncomfortable
blacklist them.
Blacklist them, and report them.
Blacklisting alone will make it so that they can't contact you in-game anymore.
Okay how do I do that
System > support desk
Go into the Social menu and open the Blacklist tab of the Friends/Search.
If you know their character name, you should be able to just add it directly.
Okay thanks
If they're on your friends list, you can also blacklist them by right clicking on their name and selecting "Add to Blacklist" from the dropdown.
š¤ should i do a party finder for shadowbringer savage raids unsynced to get the weapon for glamour
Are collab gear still obtainable in some capacity in-game?
Depends on which collab
They sometimes re-run them
Some are permanent (Nier, Monster Hunter). Some where temporary (GARO). Some are gone, but can be found on the cash shop (FF7, FF13, etc)
Thank you very much. I got some garo gear back then but not others.
Some may return again, we donāt really know when or if
I'll be on the lookout now that I've retuned to ffxiv.

never made a party before, but once it's full can we just start a high end duty just like a regular duty?
Yes
like do I need to worry about the matching requirements and other stuff at the bottom?
You still que in like normal
You just skip the waiting, because you have a full group already
Also in full group iirc you can bypass minilvl and party composition but this is rare case usage for example some PF farming EX1 (acc) make 2T 1H 5DPS party for faster clear but higher risj
question, do I get any perks for upgrading to the complete edition from the free trial or should I just wait till level 60?
You get to play the rest of the game, thatās the perk
you'll get access to pvp and the removal of the restrictions FT has\
got it got it thanks
but otherwise, not too much until you finished 3.5 msq
Getting the complete edition will also give you access to playable Hrothgar and Viera and the expansion jobs (RDM and SAM in particular can be unlocked at 50 before reaching SB).
mhm I wont bother until iāve done all what i can with the free trial then
So about 2000 hours then
holy
Relics are real fun
Iāll see what I can do then, honestly wouldnt mind dishing out the money for a more flushed out / convenient experience
Isn't one of the step in arr relic where you got spend like 400k?
4 items of 100k a piece
And that's assuming you can get the other stuff for free.

It's not uncommon for someone to shell out a couple mil overall for the Zodiac.
How often does the FFXIV online store change its products?
Ok. how often does the FFXIV online store add products?
whenever SE feels like it
In your past experience, how often has that happened
when seasonal holidays come around the last season's rewards become available on the store
there is no pattern afaik.
sometimes they added a few items at once
