unlike other MMOs where it's only an endgame barrier
and you by no means have to enjoy the msq
or even pay attention to it
if it's not your thing, feel free to just blast through skipping cutscenes and dialogue
What is BiS?
Hm aight ty
Im 63 lmfao
then it's just augmented shire 
Yup got that
but so far at lvl 20 the arr the main quest is boring as shit and i've read that it picks up later on specially with heavensweard and all that, can i just skip for now and pay attention to the story as im level 40-50 or so?
i know that zooming camera in ff14 is static but it seems that after uploading gpose settings i can zoom off in game more. How is that possible ?
Not really
You dont have to like
Meticulously read every line
As long as you get the hang of it and know whats going on its fine
it picks up around 30
But not skipping
30-35
the titan questline
yeah but like maybe with the newer content i'll not know some things
i see i see
the beauty of recaps
i'll just rush a bit until 30 or so then
last thing now
i wanna get the samurai class but im on free trial
Yeah well
is it worth it to buy the sub and the complete edition
Then its kinda not possible
at level 30?
Id just wait till 60
or should i just stick with my class until 60 and then buy and change to sam
I'd wait till you finish post-arr tbh
You need to be lvl 50 to even unlock samurai
Yeah
and go through HW with sam
aight aight
assuming i dont braindead rush through everything, how long would it take me to get to lvl 60 or so?
A while
assuming i read and all that
it's definitely better after 35
Yeah, enjoy the ride not the destination
especially in hw
If you rush thru arr to get samurai
there's no way i'll stick with the game if i don't like the story
You wont enjoy Heavensward
i hope i will
nah nah i mean its not mandatory but i would like eventually, i can just wait until 60
and then it's Final Souls 3

Npnp
Dumb question but how do I write a heart in the in-game chat? People say it’s Alt+3 but I’m on a Mac laptop. Thanks you in advance 💖
On a mac, it's probably Option+Num3
Is there like a place where i can check macros for crafting current foods/pots? I dont know if im doing smth wrong, but the ones i tested (asking for specific stats) arent working somehow
Teamcraft
kty will search for that
Ah I don’t have num as I’m on a laptop
Do you have an Fn key?
Try Fn+Option+3
are the numbers a different color than the rest
on my laptop fn stuff is blue
there might be something similar
I got these messages. Is it from doing the MSQ, or activity in the area?
Story
My mini keyboard has a them positioned in a unique place
how im i suppost to know this
Why people would want to run mentor roulette and lose their will to live is beyond me
hmm you might want to look into num pad functionality for your specific model of laptop either that or use a tool like auto hotkey to simulate a keypress
i just want to unlock it nothing else
What's up with these people?
its just some lodestone bug you get when the character hasn't logged in for a long time
I see
Doing HoH for the first time and I got 'Vortex' and 'Inferno' Magicite, should I use them, what do they do?
they wipe an entire floor clear
odin magcite does
Ah I see ty
they give you invuln for a few seconds too so you can keep them as a panic button if you're solo
Ok cool, good to know
is reset for materia in 6 minutes?
23 hours, 4 minutes, 4 seconds
5 hours, 4 minutes, 4 seconds
1 day, 16 hours, 4 minutes, 4 seconds
1 day, 16 hours, 4 minutes, 4 seconds
6 days, 11 hours, 4 minutes, 4 seconds
6 days, 5 hours, 4 minutes, 4 seconds
5 days, 22 hours, 4 minutes, 4 seconds
5 days, 17 hours, 4 minutes, 4 seconds

hey, where can I find the daily roulette reset timer?
See above
i just joined 1 of the 3 Grand Comp, how far off am i in ARR? 40%?
Lol
well, FFXIV aint for everyone and thats good
on the other hand, i can say that this free game wud take me a year or so
i've seen people get 800 hours out of the free trial
Arr is about 50 hours if you only do story
lmao
did you have fun?
not really
That doesn't how anything about how many hours you did
just draggin thru arr hoping hw is good
im not playing on steam so cant say hr for sure
HW is good, but a lot of it is due to the set up in ARR
/Playtime exists
didnt know
cool
is there any ways i can change the way the camera moves?
the most convenient for me is holding down right mouse button and wasd, can i change the default camera/movement settings to this?
i.e no long having to hold right mouse
sorry dont know how else to describe it 🤷♂️
Do you get extra 30 days if you buy Endwalker?
Do you mean the legacy type?
Oh ok then, thank you for the response!
as a tank, can i stand in middle of the mob and cast my aoe? or do i have to stand in front and face away from the party?
What i do as a gunbreaker is pull trash mobs and face them away from the party ( best to my ability ) and keep doing aoe until 2-3 are left. This keeps you from loosing aggro
If its a boss, aggro the boss and run past it and face it away from the party
Are DoTs snapshotted with your buffs or is it based on your current buffs?
do the AoEs hit the enemies in the back if you stand in front?
is there a way to use /chotbar to set menu options? like /chotbar set "Chocobo Saddlebag" 4 LDD. tried "set" and "general" and neither worked..
if its big enough, it could. What class you tanking as?
Everything snapshots, even dots
swapping between paladin and drk
Palad's aoe is heckin huge, along with drk,
i dodge aoes when im tanking, so its not like you'll be standing completely still
You should never be eating aoes
As long as u have tank stance on and keep sweeping with aoes, you should keep aggro
Only instance is when ur healer is overhealing you. You could be doing everything perfectly and lose it to an overhealing healer
You never loose aggro even to overhealing
You only lose aggro if you physically haven't hit the mob
ooh
You literally have a 10x multiplier for aggro with stance
Unless you are legit just afk for 5 years you don't lose aggro
you can see which mobs you don't have enmity on your enemy list, they're either yellow or green
but so far tanking for me is been super easy
Same here, i find it less stressful than healing
as long you hit every mob you pull
im no perfect tank but i try my best
one thing you should mind is using your defensive GCDs on big pulls
you healer will be less stressed
typucally if its wall to wall i just do rampart, nebula and auroa
maybe more if im sinking too fast
theres only been a few times where healer was like "pull all" and i was like
"oh shit ok"
Living Shadow: Does my shadow copy my moves or he does Auto Attacks?
he has some of your skills
It does a set skill order
i heard dungeon aoes were jokes enough to greed uptime with just Bloodbath and Second Wind lol
Typically i stop every two or so groups so casters can cast or healer has wiggle room to dps
if you have a WHM they can spam Holy and Assize when needed, it's like a 4-7s invul 😄
hello guys, i am planning to upgrade my pc soon for ff14 and i have been playing on 60hz this entire time..
i have a question, would getting 144hz screen make the game feels smoother? or is it like capped on 60 so its pointless? sorry if this question is stupid thx..
Pull more 
but most people just dodge and respect
You should always be wall pulling
more enemiems = more damage = better
You're expected to
Cause you should
remember, arms length is also good for mobs

on the dungeons I know I pull more, I just go slower on the ones I haven't done before, or I have to feel if the healer is up to it as well
some 3 packs are pretty bad in Shadowbringers when tank doesnt press mits
Dungeons are just straight lines
pull more even in dungeons you don't know
Nothing to really "know"
do my M+ path or I break key
I've been on the two sides, and I've found bad tanks and bad healers so you never know lol
story of how i became a tank
had enough of bad tanks so i just became one myself
no way in heck am i calling myself perfect or good. But atleast i dont stop at every mob or ignore the party when they say "tank stance"
so about Arms Length, what does it slow exactly? the mobs movement or attack speed?
its a skill I need to use more for sure
i wanna say atk speed
i'm pretty over leveled but want to unlock sage should i do dailies to speed it up or just focus on the story
ah ok it makes sense to spam it when needed
cuyrrently on 3.2 or so and level 66
I think it prevents rescue trolling too
oh yes the knockback lol
Cause rescue is coded as a knockback
nah thats when its gamer moment
i have finished Hildibrand lv 50 chain quest and theres still one thing i haven't unlock
i triple checked on mentor list but i couldn't find anything
The stormblood Hildy trial

You need to continue the arr Hildibrand to the end to start the heavensward Hildibrand then into stormblood Hildibrand
my god
It's one, very large chain
Get to work
Is there a way to know if I'm hitting the right spots as a monk?
Ah shame you're missing out
i dont like his story tbh

How can i go to another world using the same character?
Yes I agree with that emote

guys if im at 450/450 for the week can i still get the astronomy from wondrous tails?
No
You can't bypass the cap in any way
yes
any gear better than ar caean?
I mean the purple scrip gear is a higher item level, but they’re job specific and no accessories
anythign for the body?
ar caean is going to be better than purple scrip even if you lightly meld it
but those are the only two options at the moment for gear, purple scrip gear or ar caean
Do you guys know why when I use in-game framerate cap, not matter what option I choose (80/40 fps) it is stuck at 15 fps?
If your queues suck Potd
Ohhh tysm
can you meld a Galleysoph's Frypan
Wouldn't be much of a cap if you could bypass it
no
!item galleysophs frypan
I have made the right decision then
is using pf and writing first time bonus a good way to get people for extreme trials? saw a reddit post about it but it was 6 years ago lol
Just make an Unsync party
For unsyncing yes
ok
So i just saw your chocobo can go past rank 10
craftsmanship vs control opinions?
But i read i need some like onions?
Yes thavnair onions
how do you enter a trial with someone from party finder unsynced?
just df unsynced and go?
im so confused
enable unrestricted party in the duty finder settings, queue up as you would normally and viola
you are unsync
thanks
i have moaction plugin set up so my ressurection spells target my intial target and if my target can't be ressurected it goes down the list till it finds someone who can is that smart?
saves time and prevents me from accidentally targeting someone thats alive and wasting swiftcast
i can still manual res if i need too
but if my tank dies then it'll favor the tank
since the tank will be above everyone else
from what i understand res priority is usually tank / healer depending on the situation then dps
i use the part list function whever there is only 1 person dead or when it'll res a priority target like a tank or healer over anyone else otherwise i manually target
in the time it'll take me for reach the lower end of the party list i coulda already cast a dps spell
Click up on the dpad to go from the bottom 
hey i have max flame seals and am a second lutendant what should i spend them on
Do squadrons
don't i have to come back frequently
Missions are like 18h
how do i enlist people
nvm found it
can't do squadrons no one wants to join mine so not enough members
i don't want to complete an entire cetegory for the chance to get someone just so i can offload my excess seals
You don’t have to
Each individual challenge has a chance to recruit someone

Except for very specific categories
And? We know we’re talking about
ANY completion gives you a chance
i was poiting out why i'm confused
i just want to offload my extra seals so i can focus on the msq and not worry about wasted currency
Either do squadrons or buy something from the shop, those are your only options
to bad you can't by aetherite tickets with normal seals
ugh cant decide what role to play for raid, tried casters this tier but kinda getting bored of them
anything i can get some decent gil out of in here
how many aether oil/.allagan catalysts do u need for relic weps? or are they just vendor trash now
Some chemistries can give you abit of gil or some low level materia or crafter/gatherer scrips
crafter scrips is the best one imo, but it seems the rarest too
Scrips are pretty easy to get anyways
Is there only fodder loot in voyages? Looking at loot tables I don't see anything of value even at max rank. What do people go after?
are u talking quick ventures or long ones
or squadron stuff?
Free company voyages. Airships and submarines.
oh i got no idea about that
Does anyone on the official ffxiv discord
There isn’t one
this isn't an official discord
if you know anyone in bigger FCs that can ask an officer usually they would have an idea
Question, if a e-mail change is being made on an account, you would get notified, right ?
i need help folks and btw hello
Hey
I just started the conjurer job and i finished 2-3 quests
But there is no quests in the map now
i in the Sea of clouds map and i cant find a way to get there and im trying every corners and what
but i cant get to the Ok' Vundu Mok area
Ishgard the pillars, there’s an npc that’ll take you over
they unlock as you level
How should i go from 5 to 10?
that shaded out area im trying to get there and i been all around the circle and i have a freaking quest there so how the heck i get there
Did you not unlock flight? Bruh
!faq altlvlguide
If this is your first class, though, keep following the MSQ.
i cant and i got one last eathetire to do that but i cant find it since there is no location and im suspecting it is in the shaded out area
it is so stupid to lock out every thing till there is a damn last freaking quest in the map
and this is one damn maze puzzle that is getting on my nerves
If the compass doesn’t mention any more currents. Then it’s just quests that are left
did you go from the airship landing in Ishgard
They’re in the sea of clouds, they can’t go to the middle section. Which I’m pretty sure requires flight
and i checked every port
it looks like you didn't get far enough in the msq
and there is no npc to move in that area i have found yet
cause the msq takes you there
yeah some of it is yes
I finished the maq with my dragoon
yeah, you can't get there without flight
well i just turned in one and finally stupid enough of this set up is
well i can fly and that was that turn in i finally do and what a colossal annoyance it is
sorry
...
it's not dumb at all
you literally just find currents in the open and do the quests and you can fly
you just forgot to turn it in
no i did not forget and i was trying every corners riding on my mount to get there but found no access to it
any way i think i can now
i was asking if any one knew a trick
people said you need to fly
🐦
yeah flying if you can lol
its all of them
well azys lla
The real question is why wouldn’t you get flight ASAP, it’s just helpful in general
its easier with past expacs because they reduced the currents on the map
If you do a 1 chest P4S clear, what does the one chest contain?
rng
Fully rng?
!faq savageloot
In a 1-chest clear, the chest received is random
First Floor:
Chest A: 2x Accessory Coffer
Chest B: Accessory Coffer
Second Floor:
Chest A: Head/Hand/Feet Coffer + Weapon Tomestone + Accessory upgrade material
Chest B: Head/Hand/Feet Coffer
Third Floor:
Chest A: Leg Coffer
Chest B: Head/Hand/Feet Coffer + Left-side upgrade material + Weapon upgrade material
Fourth Floor:
Chest A: Weapon Coffer + Mount
Chest B: Random Weapon + Chestpiece Coffer
its rng which chest you get
Either chest A or Chest b spawns
You get either A or B, 50/50 shot
is there a way to fspeed up your mount in diadem?
No
fly
darn ok
can viera really just not wear any helmet that isnt a facemask
thats incredibly depressing
this is all you need 
I think the Type-55 Hat of Maiming works too?
!aglam female viera Type-55 Hat of Maiming
it's more of a Hat Lite™️
when is this graphic update coming for ffxiv?
you get a phantasia for beating the campaign right
Fantasia, and yes
Disney's Fantasia
So which duty in the upcoming Treasure trove is the one to farm for maximum Tomestones per minute?
aurum vale with blue mages
Aurum vale with blues
And if I don’t have a blue?
you can still join blue parties
Tank for the blue mages
go in as like a tank or phys ranged
is there an attribute that determines drop rate on hidden items when gathering?
Ok! Thanks
Drop rate, or the chance it appears at a node?
chance
There is not
Today
hm okay
No
@dry bobcat don’t tell people blatant lies in #questions-and-help
in 2 years
Does anyone here know what irony is
Plus there's not even a patch today
Like... It was pretty obvious but ok...
Irony ≠ lying to people
this isn't the place for it regardless
Reason: Don't troll in #questions-and-help
Or...just don’t
Or just don't spread mis-info or troll 🤷♀️
idk how that's hard for people
are lvling boosters worth it?
It’s your money
that's a choice you have to make
would rather spend 25$ to get to 80 instead of leveling
Not gonna beat around the bush, but a clear one-time irony/joke (that's obviously a joke) shouldnt be that big of a deal... But whatever
Aight
and actually indicate it's a joke
👍
text doesn't convey tone
Objectively, the most worth is out of summoner/scholar boosts because buying one gets you the other
And the least worth is out of the more recent jobs like Gunbreaker and dancer by virtue of them starting at higher levels
But whether just getting a boost is worth
Up to you
Not everyone has the time to level an alt job or wants to level one so you can opt to buy a boost to skip straight to 80 to do endgame
I boosted like 5 jobs because leveling them felt annoying 
if you get smn/sch boost before finishing shp role quests, does it skip both, or just one?
just one
Just the one you bought
yah
still gotta do the other
iirc you can buy both boosts to benefit from the money and gear
since it doesn't auto-complete the other quests, which iirc is the cut off for using the book
mhn
what do you do with the book then
Also note that buying a SCH boost does not give you SMN gear nor will it complete the SMN quests.
the boost is a book you use
I know
that logs you out and when you log back in, you're lvl 80 job with the gear equipped
ah wait, misread
if you can't use it
you just idk
put it on a shelf so it collects dust
or yeet it
I believe it tells you a specific cut off for when it can’t be used
This item cannot be used if you have already completed the level 80 quest for your desired job.
How is gunbreaker in Endwalker?
very good
anyone knows a site that sells the starter edtion for 9.99E?, i cant buy the game thro mogstation it tell me i have to use a key code instaed
as always
you buy it on square enix store
So two pre-matched people just decided I'm not a good enough healer and left the party. Is that reportable?
All of them
Like, the whole dungeon disbanded as a result
@serene saffron if they were toxic yes
why?
Hello im new any recommendation for a server with spanish community in EU?
if they just left without a word no
rather, what dungeon
also cant buy it from square enix store i get an error when i place payment 😢
@lost echo try a diff browser
They said "Play healer or leave", but nobody even died. I just let the tanks get low enough so my heals are strong as a good Astro should?
Uhhh either the last one in heavensward or the one before the last one, i dont remember
Yeah you're supposed to do that
healing is the art of playing hell-limbo with a tank's HP
i bought on steam i think i focked up 😄
Clunkier but strong
No not verbally, they just told me to leave and that I'm not a suitable healer. I dont think that qualifies
Although that does hurt
They probably wanted a curebot, so don't feel discouraged
Hello im new any recommendation for a server with spanish community in EU?
:/ Probably
technically it does
first time I ever encountered rule people
do it anyways
Plus you were playing AST right anyway
you can report it and let a gm decide
So 
How do I report them?
system > report desk
^^
If I want to do end content, is it easier to master GNB or Reaper (or other DPS)?
support desk*
Cheers, I'll look into it
either
Whatever you prefer
rpr is pretty simple
whichever you're more comfy on
Anything is viable
@devout crystal I heard gnb opener is kinda cancer at endgame
Ah, support desk. Is that done ingame or on their website?
in game
Roger
Gnb is very clunky with trying to do its rotation and it's job as a tank
I'd say more cursed than the other tanks imo, but it's not the worst
It's mostly moving the boss that's hard
That's annoying on GNB
haha 7 double weaves as drk haha
Just pick one
Double weaving defensives during burst 
get hit with Slow so you can triple weave without clipping

(don't do that, it's stupid)
noclippy makes the drk opener so much easier
I legit want slow as a punishment for mechanics
same
How about War?
sure
war is easy
Braindead as fuck
like
how do i rip the appearance off my pc and my retainers
War is so comfy even in Savage
it really depends what you want to play
and what you're comfortable on
whatever you pick is gonna be viable
Monke flip go brr
I play it and at points you feel nigh immortal
It’s in the character data
is buying the starter edition on the square enix store gives you a code that you enter in mogstation?
where is that for my retainers, i just figured it out for the pc
yes
Buying anything gives you a code to register it
thanks
@leaden ginkgo if you saved the appearance it's in documents > my games > ff14
i made the retainer several years ago and no longer have the save i made
Yeah they’re both stored in the same area
is there no way to remake it
you can get a retainer fantasia and note the options

In your case, it is
you can also save the data from the retainer fantasia editor
without actually changing their appearance
that is my intent, yes

END OF EW SPOILER (but also a serious lore question)
||so was the Mothercrystal Hydaelyn's source of Aether, or was it just simply what she was using it as a front for her true form?||
Ok
||It's neither||
Question is there any way to recruit someone specifically from Squadron Recruits?
a lot of praying
why cant i get my Au ra harem

you're not praying enough
You can farm their specific categories to maximize your chances
Where it says Challenge log?
Yes
perfect i'll try that
It's thr category they're under
how do i unlock diadem i have the firament unlocked
Talk to the guy to the left of the board, they’re in a shack
hi, what does this light segment indicates on my xp bar?
Rested xp
rested?
!faq restedexp
'Why does my EXP bar have some blue or faded yellow in it?'
That's Rested Experience, which is an extra source of bonus experience shared between all of your classes. You gradually earn this while inside a sanctuary (town or area with a major aetheryte), regardless of whether you're online or not. Sanctuaries are also indicated with a crescent moon icon near your experience bar.
'How much of a boost is it?'
The most amount of rested experience you can have at once is one and a half levels of experience. That means that lower level jobs use up the rested experience faster than higher level jobs do.
oh, i will read this than thank you
When is 6.1 release date?
Mid April
what bait do i need in the diadem
Does anyone know if zeroing a mechanic in Bozja disqualifies you for a duel?
If you get a vuln stack you're disqualified
So it's the vuln stack specifically that does it?
Yes
Neat so in theory zeroing it should mean I still qualify
You can fail chocobo towers and still get in
Most stuff should still give you the vuln if you zero it out in bojza
Wait really? Shoot
Just use a versatile lure
Given how ridiculously easy it would be to zero out damage
True
i sold mine by mistake
looked it up theres a mechant that sells them
What are some classes that I can focus on the mechanics rather than focus on rotations and resources?
Alternatively all of them if you know the job
You get the the point it's all muscle memory
except dancer. but on all jobs you need to pay attention to your rotation and resources.
Classes that are easier to master?
subjective
Depends on you
is the tab targetting system a known issue
it is working as intended.
they should intend for it to be functional. is the only thing i can do to it change from cone to circle
It is functional?
it is functional.
It cycles left to right out of all visible enemies
ive found rpr and nin to be pretty braindead
and dnc probably but i havent leveled dnc
but you need to focus on rotations for all classes
you cant avoid that
I see. Thx

think there's a setting to not show items that are in a gear set when selling stuff, where can i find it?
If you mean when exchanging for GC seals, it's in the dropdown menu at the top of the exchange window.
"Hide gear set items"
Well if you’re selling stuff, you’d see the gear set marker
ok, another question, where can i exchange for gc seals? i tried at wolves den and i tried at the quartermaster in uldah but i cant sell stuff :/
At your grand company
i'm not sure if this is where i should ask my question but:
can anyone show me their summoner hotbar? i haven't played ff14 in a while (2-3 years) so i'm not sure what it's supposed to look like? i'm lvl 73 too
You need to be at least... 1st lieutenant?
You need high enough rank
At the provisions officer
Have you actually unlocked it?
It's pretty easy to get the required rank. Just do the GC hunt log, your daily leveling roulette, and FATEs and PvP to make up the difference.
yeah i figured out that i can buy my promotions
just need to grind seals now but wanna level up to 50 now
Just remove everything, then read your tooltips and put things back in a way that makes sense to you.
#protips-and-ui might have some more specific suggestions, but imo hotbar setups are always something best figured out on your own.
Which ff server should I join?
Any
One on a datacenter in your region.
!faq worldpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY

Hi guys I was doing a leveling dungeon and came past these 2 im wondering the dps is not wearing his job crystal or ? I thought all dps got job crystal al lv 30 ? why is he not wearing it is it better on blm?

They haven't done their job quests
That’s Cutter’s Cry?
!faq serverlock
What class is the most fun to play?
why is there such a shortage of tanks 😭
Subjective
They simply forgot their job quest
There's also the crime that is the Cure 1 cast
It means the server is currently full and u have to wait for it to pen again try it again in a few hours or the early morning
At full hp, nonetheless
Are we able to switch classes or are we stuck with the same one?
You can be everything
Mkay thanks!
Just need to unlock them and lvl them 
trying to get the Ultros and Typhoon card from the dragons neck, do I need to open the chest to get the card or will it just drop when I finish the fight?
Cards are usually in chests
just cleared and got the card without opening the chest as soon as you said that lmao
Hey does it matter what I meld into my Kriins Osode of Fending for Eureka?
I play warrior while in there.
there's no reason to meld
Is playstation 4 free trial still disabled? I have a friend trying to start but they can't find it
No. The free trial is available on all platforms.
all free trials are available
"FINAL FANTASY XIV Online free trial " pulls up various editions of the game, and hte only one with a demo has it as unavailable
hello folks again
? beside a party finder and maybe somewhere is there a way to find a group beside a FC to team up with other players ???
say for example like here or on discord where ppl say what server they are on and join and not a channel to join FC that i meant ???
Dude just make a PF, it’s so much easier
use party finder.
Endwalker question: is there any way of repeating the last instanced battle with ||Zenos|| after you have finished the MSQ?
ok how often does a Sigularity Reactor loads up ?
im at endwalker on this lvl with another toon on another server
im not ^
Not yet
What? That’s just a duty you can queue for
it is one of my MSQ trial duty
any idea when its usually available?
So queue for it and wait
i have
Wait until new game plus in 6.1
hey, what kind of materia should I focus on as a dark knight?
ah cool I was afraid they only added the game+ at the end of the expansion
!faq balance
Meld priorities inside
check the balance as linked above.
okey
how is some one is a reaper which is a lvl 70 starting class and this duty is lvl 58 i think and viewing the cut scent
scene ^
Skips, ending up overleveled by not swapping jobs, roulettes
There’s many ways
they could also just be a higher lvl player who wants to watch the cutscene
prob not
oh gee i finished an expansion lol
so i guess that means i can pick up hilbrand which i hate to do them lol
this is qnh, yes
btw where do i pick up hilbrand the next expansion that i belived i aquired ?
Ishgard
is foundation Ishgard ??
Yes...
can you kamikaze 31 in blu carnivale?
if i buy the full collectors edition does it also include the stuff the endwalker collector edition has? like the mount and scythe?
Yes
Ok thank you 
any location for good Archaeornis Skin farming
if you start from floor 50 of potd do you get better sacks
Yes
Every 50 floors have different set of sacks for POTD
1-50, 51-100, 101-150, 151-200
I think HOH goes 1-30, 31-60, 61-100
Whats the point leveling up ||trust avatars?||🤔

Is there anyone that could show me what an an Limsa apartment's walls look by default?
Not exactly
I've been meaning to acquire one to decorate it with a white theme
Now that I've got the gear for every job through 80, what is a good use of tombstones?
!faq poetics
Thanks!
Um I bought Endwalker for PS5 but it still won’t let me play the game
You need the base game too
Do you own the starter edition
Are you currently subbed?
I don’t know what either of those mean. There are two different things at the shop. I have the main game, which was free, then I bought Endwalker
I guessed they didn’t redeem the code or something
So you don't own the game
You didnt buy starter edition
You can't use dlc for a game you don't own
Trial isn't ownership
The main game isn’t free
Not now
They already bought EW
Since they already brought endwalker
Could they still refund it
They just need starter edition
assuming they haven’t done anything with it
I don’t see any starters edition
PS5
Console auto does codes for you
Ic ic
All I see is Endwalker and collectors edition

It's in there
yo, my invwentory is almost full. any place to set them in ?
chocobo or retainers
Or sell stuff you definitely aren’t gonna use
!faq dyeicons
ah
How do you get a cryptlurker shield?
ahhh
it's with armor
oh that's wack
are retainers free, i recall seeing on the website you had to pay for some
are all dyes obtainable ingame (none exclusive to mogstation?)
Yes
thank you !!
Some are just really really rare
The ones on the mogstation are just harder to get in-game without buying from others
Since they’re a rare drop from quick ventures
But basically all of them besides Jet Black and Pure White are relatively cheap
Sometimes Gold and Silver are a decent amount, along with Pastel Pink and Metallic Yellow
For leveling DPS alt jobs: do yall ever like to switch things up other than roulette and dungeon spam beyond lvl 50?
I don't think I care too much for deep dungeon so far
Can level passively thru beast tribe dailies or do fate farming
the roulette/dungeon spam queue times for DPS just get a little heavy on me sometimes
makes me wanna grind quests or something for a bit
how is FATE farming for XP so far in your expereince?
sounds interesting
“Grinding quests” is actually worse exp wise
It's not terrible but not as good as dungeons/potd
Personally don't mind it cos it's pretty chill

Sb+ fates are fairly decent due to bonus fate system and the twist of fate buffs
around lvl 50, do I basically just pull up a FATE map and run around with my chocobo by mysefl?
I don't mind solo content was just curious basically
if you just wanna chill and do something brainless it's fine
but it's less efficient than doing dungeons or msq
Noticeably worse pre stormblood
ah gotcha
if you've finished EW MSQ you can grind gems for the pages for what was it, the mount?
doing fates in EW
ShB too?
There's also wings
But that requires maxing out all the ew zones for fates too
And dudes at 50
Yes can farm shb or ew fates for gems
Next expansion: tricolor gems
Utlimately just have your bo out and run around doing what fates you see up. Probably avoid the big boss fates but minor "boss" fates are usually soloable with your bo
If the music changes to something noticeably different to standard combat/fate music: RUN
Oh and special weather usually means a death fate
Ixion, couerlregina, odin
Although we haven't gotten one of those since sb
Is there any way to queue to PoTD without physically going to the guy
Nope
Aight
Hi, I heard that in a later patch we might be able to refund Asphodelos gear? Any idea how that might work?
No
haven't heard of that at all and they've never done such a thing before
Yeah I don’t remember that happening in Eden either
Whoever told you that is both lying and wrong
I found it really odd
Never been able to do that, won't even be able to desynth it til 6.2
I mean it'll be uncapped somewhere like what 6.18, I can't remember someone correct me
But we've never been able to exchange it for books or w/e
if i leave a queue for a trial to do something then come back, will it take longer than if i just stayed?
ive been waiting for over an hour
If it’s an EX, people don’t queue for those
titan extreme
If it’s an EX, people don’t queue for those
Youll never clear unless you're ultra lucky
:(
Use party finder and unsync it to clear it
waht does unsync mean
Let's you go in without being synced
Get a lvl 90 and nuke it
what does synch mean?
...syncing you down to the duty level
it caps at 50
That’s syncing
Yes
wtf
The game doesn’t care how it’s done, just get it done
does this apply to anything on duty finder?
You can't unsync current expansion stuff
you lose xp from dungeons when you unsync them
ye
would this affect my queue time?
0 queue time
There is no que
You enter as you are
With your current party
Meaning if you que unsync now you'll be solo
oh i see
You can also kill Titan in the lvl 70 poetic gear by yourself
idk what poetic gear is
Tome gear
Okay first off
Tomes you're getting from 50/60/70/80 content
Anyone wanna help me farm a couple lanner mounts
You should go get ironworks gear, the weapon especially
You got some from castrum and praeotirum
also if i go unsynch and do it with 1 person will the probability of me getting the mount i want be higher if theres less people to split it between?
They probably have the mount already anyway
but does the rate change with less people in a party?
what is the meta instance to farm tomestones gonna be? i suppose blue mage aurum vale?
Yes
great
Blue mage anything is always superior
also regarding the gear and stuff u said to get, idk if i can since im like level 55
You can
There's tome gear every 10 levels starting at 50
It's.the best lv50/60/70/80 gear available
it's the best gear for that level
where do i get it?
You won't get better until you're half way into the next expansion
Blue bag npcs in the main cities
just go to a starting city, talk to the blue bag npcs
Buy the weapon first to triple your dps
any city?
The starting cities yes
STARTING city, you know the 3 you visited during the story
Literally behind you
correct
Weapon first
so this wont be replaced from msq gear for a while?
stormblood?
oh

Elden Fantasy
