Just lvl bard
i dont like him
you can make them dancers at 60
aha, so no need for reset
you only need to reset if you're changing from class to another class or if they're already a job and you want to change them
Which of course requires a lvl 60 bard at least
Then that's easy. Level your retainers to 60 on ARC/BRD and then swap them over once they get there.
kk
that would be appreiciated
I have sent you a link!
Melders
is there a reason why it needs to be physical ranged dps over magical or melee for aurom spam
found him , ty
so they want th4e buff rather than the damage
which one of the 4 arr beast tribes that are considered least annoying to complete?
I don't really remember but the sylph one has carrying item daily that is frustrating
5 tribes, but yeah it’s totally sylph
What about the least annoying one? besides Ixali
They're all the same
There's no difference between then since they all rank up at the same pace
where do you see your irregular tomestone count besides the vendors?
oh wait it's in my inventory im blind
Your inventory
thought itd be a key item or currency
i beg to differ
Ahh I already have them levelled, planning to do the dailies for anima weapon material.
the moogle one is the worst
Talking about ARR tribes
why the fuck are all their quest objectives spread across the entire map
but yeah if you put aside each tribe's individual quest bullshit
they're all the same
this is about arr beast tribes.
vanu's one are even more spread out imo 🥲
not hw.
I'm trying to level the 3 HW tribes while doing 1 of the ARR for the currency, so would like to know the tribe which has the fastest dailies for ARR.
fastest dailies for ARR? probably sahagin
kobolds would probably be my second choice
they're both relatively small areas
anyone on exodus free for a quest?
Unfortunately, this is not an LFG channel =/
oh
Quests aren’t really a team thing anyway
oke thankss
Just queue for duties, or use PF for the difficult stuff
i did
but what fun would it be to meet people and fight alongside
more longterm friends in the process haha
You do that in the que?
You see people abd can talk?
yes i understand. i was merely asking.
Ease up, guys. We went over this last night.
??
Not you lol. You're fine.
Not duty
You can but not here for duties
where may i?
There's too many people from all over in this channel to do that effectively
the game finds people for you easier than asking people on discord, that’s all we’re getting at
Yeah, "help" here is a help-desk type thing, not a "can you help me complete content?" thing, is all. =)
No worries.
i wish someone would have just pointed out there was a channel for it than say otherwise lol
i'm new to the server
and am also returning
havent played the game in over 2 years
So praeortium is the way to farm irregular tomestones?
No
Lol no
thanks anyways
So just other normal dungeons? I do not want to delve into pvp just yet
Yes
People spam Aurum vale, with BLUs
Or blue mage aurum
are you in Novice Network on your server? that's a decent way to connect with other players
i'd say the community is dependent on the world you're in, on occasion they're not very helpful at all from what i hear
no. i dont know a LOT of stuff on 14 since i left. i was kinda middle of heavensward when i last played
in a main city do something like /sh can I get a novice network invite please
and a mentor will invite you
very helpful if you want to make friends and meet people
What are you queueing for anyway
am i imagining things or are trash mob hitboxes in crystal tower raids are ultra scuffed for aoe? i keep just not hitting them
what skills do u need for BLU aurum spam? moon flute, whistle, missile, ultravibration, rams voice,?
how far into the story do you beed to be the unlock everything needed for arum spam on blu
just deleted it.
You are imagining things.
Compounding factor is that if another alliance aggros enemies (purple HP bar/names), your damage numbers won't always pop up when hitting them because .... I guess the game has decided they aren't relevant to you?
better off.
oh huh
Is dragonsong ultimate at level80?
for the skills i mentioned, the "furthest" skill is in stormblood, the peaks. everything else ARR/HW i think
i never noticed that damage numbers wont pop up on other alliance targets
depends how deep and helpful you want to be to the BLU group
that would certainly explain it thanks
like I said before, you could just play tank/healer for a BLU party and not need BLU at all
Alternatively ^
we don't know date for 2nd patch 6.1 Live Letter yet right?
no, no date yet
if you want to be part of the BLUs that are carrying the dungeon, you're gonna need to be at the end of stormblood to have all the broken skills
it will be level 90, and be gated by completing p4s, given past ultimates
and you'd also have to do a handful of the BLU carnivale
is carnivale particularly difficult? seems like basically little puzzles right
there's tactics to clearing them
If you don’t have spells yeah it difficult
also the right spells, etc
it's a solo duty, and not all of the fights are puzzle fights
they DO give allied seals which is a great way of buying aetheryte tickets:)
free teleports
im sitting on like 3k tickets. im not short free tps anytime soon lol
ill take a look at those links though thanks
hmm i should honestly buy more aetheryte tickets, been spending it all on ventures sitting at like 15k...
are the mount speed tickets worth it?
mount speed doesn't affect flight?
Flight is already max speed so why would it
i guess that cuts out a lot of grinding
What song plays during the second phase of ||endsinger. Where the scions use their power and help the WoL||?
sometimes I'm glad of my riding maps when I'm just moving a short distance and taking off just feels like effort
||With Hearts Aligned||
Thanks! It’s a really awesome song. Reminds me of that one song they play in Thor
Hello, I was convinced by a friend to give this game a try (again). First time I tried was on the BETA version of the game long time ago. Now, I have downloaded it and ready to go (on PS5), I heard that it is free to play up to level 60 now (Heavensward)
But I am confused by the "28 days of playtime remaining" message I get
Never bought the game
Then twitch prime code from ages ago
Never had Twitch Prime as well :S
Well whatever you did you own the game and got the 30 days free
Only BETA version on PlayStation
Whatever I did was to test the BETA long time ago, that's all.
1.0 beta or something?
Yes
you should be able to see which licenses you own
You own the game
But I never bought them :S
well you ain't trial
Brought or got gifted it at some point
the fact is that I never did, I download the PS5 version few days ago
Oh boy 😦 I am so confused
You can say that all you like, but mogstation indicates very much otherwise
as vinyl said you either bought it or were gifted it
And it was only recently activated
Simple fact is...you own the game
I am sitting here and trying to remember if I have forgotten anything, but honestly there is nothing. I remember only the BETA and that's it.
you probably tried to download the trial and got the starter edition instead
Hey guys, I saw that certain quests in Heavensward have special dialog for dragoons, do you need to be playing that class to get them or is it enough to have it leveled?
did you ever buy the PS4 or PS3 version?
@sweet nest leveled
Just levelled and done the quests
can you get adventurer in need bonus for preformed party roulette?
Hmm, could it be?
Cool thanks
if its not a full premade, yes
No, only the BETA
if it is a full premade, no
the trial and starter edition have the same content it's just that one is paid and the other isnt
thank you!
For the Lv40 boss in PotD, is the scream interruptable?
!faq interrupt
Ah, prolly not then cause not red
lv 40 is wraith yeah? the yes he could be 🤔
afaik most of the scream in potd can be interrupted
you can try stun instead of interject
nothing on payment history on Mog Station. but I did a quick search on google now and found this
https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/a6aqvx/cant_get_trial_because_i_had_the_beta/
Could it be the same thing happening to me? if so I guess I will just make a new PSN and SE account.
then make a new account for the trial and if you can't change the username on PS contact support
potd
Clear floor 100 of potd
Potd, trade. 90/90 for 9 aether grips
yes
How long in average?
Several hours, probably a few weeks
Thank you for the replies. I will contact SE support before I go a head and make a new PSN account and stuff. If they can't fix I will just make a new account then. It is strange though I know I never bought it. Hopefully it gets fixed.
Thanks again 😄
What would be the best tank with 3 bluemages to melt your brain in aurum vale?
duties that have a little moogle icon next to them in the duty finder
its not lvl50 only
its specific duties
Look up the duty list
Dragoon gets fang and claw at level 56 but can’t actually use it until level 86?
what makes you say that?
do your job quest
since i already have expansions up to shb is there a point in buying endwalker before beating shb
Can only be executed under effect of sharper fang and claw, skill that gives sharper fang and claw is Level 86
just unlocking sage and reaper
!buff sharper fang and claw
yeah but you need to be level 70 to unlock them
do this quest https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Dragoon's_Errand
to unlock sharper fang and claw
i did, it gave me fang and claw
!action full thrust
Delivers an attack with a potency of 100.
Combo Action: Vorpal Thrust
Combo Potency: 400
Combo Bonus: Grants Sharper Fang and Claw
Duration: 30s
Effect of Sharper Fang and Claw ends upon execution of any melee weaponskill.
level 86 unlocks - Lance Mastery III - Upgrades Full Thrust to Heavens' Thrust and Chaos Thrust to Chaotic Spring.
I thought the event vendor was supposed to have previous items but it's just confetti?
that was the previous items
It's ALWAYS the fireworks stuff when they say that
oh
The actual old rewards go onto mogstation
that is a different thing
that's really depressing
you can use fang and claw before 86
yea thats what i was telling them, i was asking where he see fang and claw in the 86 ability
my bad
but yea once you do the level 56 and 58 quest, you should be able to do Fang and Claw and Wheeling Thrust
Can we unsync the duties for moogle tomestones?
Np
aaaaaaaaa
Specifically says that
yes, the quest didn't say it changed full thrust to grant sharper fang and claw, but its all good now
No quest says when a old skill is upgraded to get a new function
You just look through your skills
the tooltips change once you get the appropriate skill/trait
when does 6.1 come out?
Mid April
mid april
ty
Best guess is 19th
tryin g to see how long i got for moogle stuff
to my previous posts about Free Trial not available for me, I found this
A Realm Reborn released August, 2013, so yeah I think I can't access the Free Trial because of the BETA 😦 I will have to wait to tomorrow to be able to talk with Support.
there's nothing to be done
you bought the game
unless you want to make an entirely new square enix account.
Dude, you actually bought Babylon's fall?
or possibly got it from some free promotion thing
Nope, Trial version on PS5
reply to Babylons Fall
didn't even try it, deleted the demo after logging in hehe
Lol I see. Question now, what to do with obsolete belt gear? Just throw it away? Sell it?
So there's no objectively better thing to with them. Thanks.
Is the crown the only thing we're getting for Little Ladies' Day?
Yes
Laaaaaame, aw well
That’s how seasonals are
I never bought it or got it through any other means, I was not into MMO's, especially with monthly subs but tried the BETA since it was free and it is FINAL FANTASY which I am generally fan of, but for some reason it says I have the game which I do not. Never payed anything for FF14. Not on disc or digital. BUT Something must have happened, this is like from 2013, maybe a bug in the system from back then.
I will talk to SE Support tomorrow and if nothing can be done, I will fill out the form to unlink my PSN account from my SE account (Which I have nothing on it), then make a new SE Account and link it to my PSN.
Hopefully next time I ask for help in here, it will be about in-game stuff 😄
I appreciate the replies. Thanks.
What materia do i put into my miner as BIS?
depends entirely what your end-game goals are

is there a foolproof strat for the Tsukuyomi meteors in phase 2? like really really foolproof for dummies?
thing is we want to farm her soon for the wolf mount and we are all seniors from age 40-60+ reactions are bad and overall figuring out whats happening around them is bad
i usually could guide them so far, but this might be a challenge if i dont find a 'trick' of some sort
we go unsync obviously and we might be up to 8 people, i doubt we can burst her down before anything
I did it with 5, as long as you keep them from overlapping you should be fine
https://youtu.be/upxJCK6Zhl0 have no idea how to make it simpler

Thumb nail art is inspired/traced/edit from Colossil
https://twitter.com/colossil_/status/1193911372163080198/photo/1
you have to make some effort for that
The standard strat was like Tank north, dps south and healer placing on the larger colour
So only the healer has to adjust to going East or west
is there an option on pf to have members have to have completed the duty?
^
Can someone help me speed run through HW
No, we don’t play the game for people
yeah this looks simple enough xD
to put it in context, we did seiryu yesterday and they got overwhelmed figuring out where the snakes come from and avoiding the water elemental slaps
thanks a lot 
Best dungeon to farm event tomestone?
BLU aurum vale
6.1
so around mid april
safe to assume u have a month of time
y does the warrior of light look different when hes a monk and samurai https://youtu.be/Jt1h1MinlLI
FINAL FANTASY XIV: Stormblood
http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/stormblood/
Same face model if you look closely. The hair is what makes it look so different.
ye and he has less stubble on the samurai
[insert Sean Austin's "it's called fashion sweetie, look it up" meme picture]
guess its just different times
can someone explain the # of chests depending on party members in panda savages?
Chests: The number of chests that drop depends on the number of people who have not yet cleared that week. 2 chests for 8 people needing a weekly clear and 1 chest for at least 4 people needing a weekly clear.
Loot Rules: Every week, your first clear of every floor rewards you with a book (for gear exchange) and the chance to roll on loot from any chests. This is your only chance that week to win any loot.
**Skipping Floors:**Entering a floor without completing previous floors marks you as having completed them, giving up both your book and chance to roll on loot that week.
ah so if the number of people needing clears is < 4, there are no chests?
I have no idea where to ask this so I'm going to ask here lol. I'm getting married in game this weekend (yay) and I wanted to make vows on macros but I can't remember how exactly to type those out since there's character caps and such. Does anyone remember?
basically if more than 4 people have already cleared for the week, its 0 chests
I accidentally wasted most of my gil
Im at 4000 or so, lvl 64
How can i get a bunch fast, like 50.000
msq
Fair
While searching on the Square-Enix EU Supoort site, I found this on their page:
Guess I will be making a new account then 🙂
Yes, you can't revert to trial once you've bought game
why would you make a new account and lose the bonuses from having a 1.0 account?
I got no bonuses, I haven't bought it just like I said many times, I tested the BETA loong time ago.
I will just fill the form to unlink my PSN account from my SE account and link the new one to it
just double check that your old account wasn't a grandfathered in account
it will be $10 per month instead of $13
july 2013 should be ARR beta though so i don't think it was a 1.0 account
Yeah, never touched the OG 14 or 11
What's a good way to go about leveling a job? For example, trying to run through my gladiator missions to get paladin, what would be an efficient way to do so?
!faq altlvlguide
Provided you have finished story
Hey guys what is the stat priority for scholars? I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the stats on the different types of jewelry
You want stuff with mind
Mind > everything else
Sub stats really only matter at lvl cap
If it doesn't have mind it's useless to you
fine tuning stats doesn't matter at low level
just pick whatever piece has mind on it
highest ilvl, then mind stat
and no, you don't need to worry about materia melding either until level 90
cool thank you, thing is I'm goldsmithing so I have literally all of it, and most of it doesn't sell for more than 50 gil or so, so if I'm not using it I'm basically throwing it away
wow I forgot about that
In general, the stat priority for SCH (and SGE) is Weapon Damage (obviously isn't on jewelry) > Mind > Crit > Determination > Direct Hit. But that doesn't really matter until level 90 when you actually have multiple options at the highest ilvl.
Hi guys, do you know if there are any discord server to find groups to farm Normal Delubrum with relevant essences?
For crafter collectibles do you have to be level 50+ to craft and turn them in?
You have to be at the collectible’s level to turn it in

are there any ogcd shield for sch
Does pandemonium reset today or tomorrow?
tomorrow
Ah okay. Classic weekly reset. Thanks!
Does anyone know what these question marks are on the map?
ahhh I gotcha
Progress through the story, then you'll know what is it 😁
That'll always be ???
For example: the ivalice raids are under that bracket
It's where the ivalice raids sit
I've finished the story. I just wanted to make sure i'm not missing anything
Ah yeah then you are missing blue quests
That won't fill it either
lol
It's always going to be ???
Eep, ic ic
It's just the region they throw misc shit into so they don't have to make millions of regions just to house 1 thing
Isn't Dalmasca in Othard though?
Wait. if I entered POTD as a pugilist, and now I'm a monk, I have to start over?
Say it ain't so. Somebody :(
[Morgan Freeman VC] "But it was so."
oh no.
you're boned
Just get up to floor 50 and restart from 51
Oh wait I have a BLM at 71. Apparently you can just start from 51 now.
Huh saved me a run LOL
51 is a checkpoint
Awesome I wish I noticed this sooner
And is why it's the spammed floor for levelling
I shouldn't proceed from there?
You spam 51-60 for xp
Meaning, I should just stay at 51-60?
do you need to upgrade your weapon in pyros to upgrade the elemental armor in hydatos?
Only reason to do higher is to clear 100 for kinna weapons

whats the optimal spell set to do Aurum with 4xBLU? is there a guide or list some where
Ram's voice + ultra vib for instant clears on trash
Missile for 1st and 2nd boss
Classic final sting for last boss
Whistle, moon flute. Final stinger
Ram + ultra
four final sting combos is enough to 1 shot the last boss?
is it doable with 2?
The comp is usually 3 BLUs and a tank/ranged physical
i figured you'd just DPS the last boss as normal if you only had two BLU
but if all 4 have the proper spells I guess you can just 4x final sting combo
Are there individual discords for each class? Where can i find em'?
!faq balance
that's all you need.
Having a discord dedicated to a single job would be nuts
and people complain about community resources being too divided up...
o
ty
Yeah it makes more sense in other MMOs I suppose, where you're kind of 'bound' to your own class.
It makes no sense period
Well, in BDO there's a lot to say about a given class. They have individual discords for each one
If you were to mish-mash all discords together... I'm not sure a server can even contain that many chat-channels
It can make sense in some games
I think discord could handle alot of channels
Are there chat rooms there and I'm just missing them?
You need to grab roles
Get the role for the respective job(s) you want
you should read what's written there
I did, didn't give me the monk ones until I clicked on Astro. just a tiny delay I guess
The role bot can take abit
Yepyep
Each job basically have 4 channels each ontop of all.the generic stuff
Yeah honestly that discord is pretty well made
I think BDO discords could've used such a system too just fine, I take it back
Although who cares that game is complete p2w garbage
is there a way to make it so asylum casts instead of refresh if you double tab
Option in character configuration somewhere to allow ground aoes to cast on double tap
should tab target type be cone or ignore debpth
ignore depth is from left to right of your screen I reckon
I'm more used to cone, but if you are used to ignore depth is also ok
btw doing wondrous tails for exp is worth it yeah?
yes
That's ~50% respective to whatever class you're turning it in on, so it balances itself, just for clarity.
is this guide accurate https://www.akhmorning.com/resources/controller-guide/controller-targeting/#target-ring-type
just cause its for the patch doesn't mean it accurate
Akhmorning is a trusted site so yes
okay thanks
ignore debth seems to favor camera direction over distance
hitting left on the dpad in this position picks aplhinaud, ernest night, dungeon entrance, steadfast night, while doing ignore depth
even though the earnest knight is much closer
same with cone
so i'm not sure what determines target prioroty
my guess is how far they are from the center of the screen horizontally
apparently dpad doesn't use targeting mode
to bad steam controller config is so unreliable with xiv launcher

Hey guys
I finished msq with dragoone and now i am trying white mage, now i am at lvl 33, how often should i upgrade my items so i can keep up in the dungeons???
for lv <50 NPC gears are acceptable I guess
Can use dungeon items too
33 would be Brayflox
That and job quests basically cover you
I read the question wrong lol
I thought you are trying to increase your ilvl to keep up with the dungeon ilvl req -_-
but yeah, just greed and need everything, then press the "REcommended gear button"
I'm kinda confused what "a realm reborn" is. Is there something before a realm reborn? Is it DLC or the base game?
It's the Base game
Everything before any expansion
The failed final fantasy 14 was 1.0
Arr is 2.0 and saved the game
oh wow thanks I'm looking at it now. Reminds me of ffxi
Is soloing lv65 dungeon or above hard?🤔

This should cover things
Depends on your job and item level
I love how i watched this before i played ff14
Lv90🤔
Then it'll be piss easy

fwiw if you ever have to ask "is this soloable" you may as well just pop in and find out
And then you'll find out the most important question, is it soloable by me
I havent got time to play today 
and of course certain classes will have an easier time soloing things than others
Might as well ask
warriors and red mages will be able to solo a lot more shit than black mages can, for example
some warrior soloed p1 normal, though it took them like an hour and a half
just for the flex
Every tank except drk has done that
Question has been answered already
this video is actually super informative lmao
Research was done for it
it's a pretty great video
there are more official ones available but it’s the best digest
it may be a meme at first glance but it covers that 1.0 situation pretty well
It's accurate, including that the fan base does worship yoshi p
I queue for Delubrum Reginae, and after like 15min's it pops. I wind up in the instance by myself... isn't it a raid?
Not as many queue for it anymore and you would be in queue forever if it didn't have a set time until it pops
Dr is special
You can't do it yourself right? Is it like the other one in Bozja where you only do it if enough people sign up?
It was mostly for situations where a handful of people would queue and it was still doable so they wouldn't be stuck forever
It's a 24 man bozja raid so you can use all those tricks. It also has super echo like castrum lacus litore
You would still need good actions but yeah you could
It's technically soloable
it would take a while though
I tried to kill first boss and lost 25k mettle.
So probably partyfinder is best bet?
If you can, yeah try pf
It doesn't show up as recruiting in Bozja right?
nope
Just pf an 8 man party and go in that way
Its under adventure forays
You'll be stupid op and essences will stack multiplicatively
Although, fucking up mechanics doesn't give vuln stacks in dr
You have twice come ruin instead
Fail 2 mechs in close succession: you die
what can i buy for tomestones besides gear?
!faq poetics
Alot
There is
It's the strongest aoe heal that's spammable
It's more for high end content where you need that strong heal
aoe is kinda a stretch given it's shitty range
And everyone should be stacking at all times unless mechanics are happening
95% of the time In high end content, everyone is stacked up
i've never seen a team stack before but then again i'm only on 3.4
Cause people in dungeons don't know that range shouldn't be in fucking Africa, out of healing and buff range
Being on the bosses ass at melee range is the best place to be
I think in some of your job quest, those NPCs stacks sometimes
In heal range, in buff range, you stack any baited aoes nice and neatly
if you are looking to use it soon
doesn't matter since they aren't affected by aoe
huh
they are
They are later
since when
Starts being a thing getting into stormblood
ohh really? lol
They improve their NPC ai and behaviour
I thought it's from the beginning 👀
i think aoe worked in the first astro quest but none after that
Positioning is extremely important, regardless; but in this case, Cure 3 is an aoe heal on the healed target so it should be even less of an issue than one centered on yourself.
i can rely on myself being positioned well i can't say the same for others
Then they die
And it's their fault
If you're out of healing range then it's entirely on you for dying
it's very rare for everyone to be in range of even medica
I promise you it is not.
at least where i am it is but again i'm only on 3.4 so i can't say how people act later on
Heck, even in the CT raids I can hit my entire alliance with Helios without having to think about where people are
my definition of a "competant tank" is one that doesn't make me babysit them at this point
Anyway, the answer is yes, it is useful, it's a 600 potency aoe-on-target heal.
but this is getting into rant territory so i'll stop
there are some situations with extremely heavy raidwide damage and the easiest way to deal with it is to ask your raid to stack and then spam cure 3
if you are a casual player you'll probably never use it tbh
but in some situations in savage or ultimate raiding, it's a very powerful tool
so basically it's something i shouldn't worry about till endgame because no one stacks before then?
i'm just trying to avoid forming bad habits early on
Medica 2 is more total potency, but it also takes a full 15s to take effect, so Cure 3 is more powerful in situations where acute healing is needed.
Like, if you take a raidwide and you have a fair bit of space between that damage and the next time anyone should be taking it, the Medica 2 should be fine.
fat chance that people are stacked close enough for cure 3 to be wholly effective
But if you have raidwides during other stuff, or back to back raidwides, there's too much coming out at once for Medica 2 to handle.
It's what we call spike damage/healing versus pressure damage/healing.
Cure 3 is a spike heal, Medica 2 is a pressure heal.
is that like burst vs sustained?
It's a nice tool to be aware of and keep around at least
I have been practicing cure 3 trigger during stack mechanics like get behind rock, even if it isnt really necessary

this is not a skill you should practice
instead of spam healing, in endgame content you should instead try to find ways to coordinate enough healing with your cohealer
the idea is that no one has to GCD heal ever
so in a perfect run, you never use medica 2, medica, or cure 3
with enough cohealer coordination, you and your cohealer's powerful free oGCDs should be enough to cover every situation
cure 3 spam is usually only used during prog when you aren't sure how much healing is needed or how much mitigation is required
We still fire off lilies even if they're a gcd to feed afflatus though right?
wellllllllllllllll
ideally you avoid using lilies too because they're a damage loss
lol
Only if absolutely necessary
isn't misery a dps loss
a lot of white mages just sit capped on lilies unless they have to heal and their cohealer is bitching at them
but this is far into endgame
just use lilies as needed
my priority for heal usage is always ogcd -> lilies -> other gcd
Ah so this just becomes glare simulator
Which is correct
white mage optimization is quite literally "how many glares can I cast without people dying"
i basically never find myself going onto the third 1
In endgame damage optimisation, yes, the goal is to find the way to press non-damaging skills exactly zero times as a healer.
If you're not doing that, though .... it's still a very valuable tool.
Does Regen stop being a thing? I've noticed the tanks start being tankier
Like, if someone ever tries to tell you that the difference between clearing and not clearing a piece of content is a healer pressing Medica 2 instead of Glare, then that person is either high or trolling.
regen is pretty much only used during dungeons and maybe ultimates
It'll absolutely be a difference in kill time.
But not in whether or not you can get the kill.
well, this isn't fully true, 0.1% wipes happen way more frequently than you'd expect
Is ultimate harder than savage? Or other way around? Also extreme?
Much harder
especially on scuffed runs where a lot of mistakes happen and you're really pushing that enrage timer as a result
It's designed for the highest end players
Ultimate is the de facto hardest content
So ult > savage > ex > hard > normal?
This will never change
like, if you know that the boss's only remaining attack is gonna be their enrage, there's no sense using medica 2 to top off people because they aren't gonna need the health
Show me a 0.1% wipe where the last percent was the healer's damage and I will show you 4 DPS and 2 tanks who have their own issues to clean up.
Normal = hard = expert roulette
well, in this case it isn't about "oh if everyone else did better than I don't have to"
it's more about "I need to do the best I can to minimize our chances of wiping"
yes it's unlikely but that doesn't mean you shouldn't be trying to optimize otherwise
Anyone in primal North America and want to play I’m new?
It's almost NA peak time now, should be crowded now in NA DC 😹
i can show you a log where a friend's static literally killed the boss AS enrage casted and killed half the raid
like literally the server tick is what got them the clear
because the enrage killed half the party but the other half was still alive
you know what did the killing blow?
motherfucking carbuncle auto attack
shout in a main city asking for a Novice Network invite, easiest way to connect to people when new
(this was in ShB)
How do you do that haha
Correct, but high-end optimisation is not germane to the topic of "is this skill useful", and since this answer session is drifting ridiculously far off course and more into general #general-discussion circular arguments territory, that is why I keep driving it back to normal/casual level play.
If you can't shout due to f2p then just say in a crowded city like limsa and you'll probably get the same result
well I mean, think of it this way
one less mistake you make is one more mistake someone else can make
gotta cover for your teammates too
Then is WHM considered weaker than other healers like AST? I remember that had way more OGCD buttons and dps buffs on top of that
No
!faq metameme
Jokes aside, all healers are equal
It's down to player skill and a couple niche use cases
Ast has a skill that can basically invalidate an entire mechanic in p3s for example
Does anyone have the meme guide for smn ew with the legos?
OK then what does WHM have over other healers like AST if AST is richer in oGCD heals and hands out damage buffs? What should I be thinking of as the stronger part of the kit?
we joke that AST earthly star is WHM's strongest healing tool
But my static clears it fine with whm and sch
WHM has more damage
Well first off, asts personal dps is way lower than whm
whm has benediction
Even just glare vs malefic
And it's off globals are very strong
Very noticeable difference in damage
Lilybell is great
Lily Bell is fantastic
what exactly is the difference between extreme and minstrels ballad?
There isn't one
they are the same
There isn’t
Flavour text
Basically
Minstrels ballad is usually applied to big story fights
Although that pattern broke on sos
Some of them are “more thematic”
Oh I see
I guess lily bell makes a lot more sense if you're focusing on never GCD healing
well that's one tool of many
asylum is pretty much the first button to press if any healing is needed
a lot of white mages, particularly new ones, make the mistake of putting down asylum and then just casting medica 2 anyway
Asts asylum equivalent renders you useless too
effectively completely wasting asylum
Although you can just flash it for a second
But then it's not as much overall effectiveness as asylum
But then we're getting into nitty gritty optimizations and differences
Different use cases of wings vs neutral sect blah blah blah
you're gonna see a lotta people in casual content just spam heals anyway
What was the interaction between this?
Ohh I see
even through huge raidwides
and also AST is casting earthly star on cooldown anyway because they get damage out of it
so they effectively lose nothing
but I guess you don't see WHM AST comps often anymore since they split healers into pure/shield nowadays
is there some sort of thing you have to do to get the clan hunt unlock quests? They haven't shown up for some reason even though I already unlocked basic Hunt
yeah, I already did the arr one, but the hw one isn't there
Is there any place where I can find all the relevant weekly rewards ? I just found about The Hunt and Wondrous Tails, it's a bit late for this week... but I want to know if I miss something esle.
Thanks!
For the record, HW ones are unlocked in Ishgard at the forgotten knight
It should be a blue quest
My friend is having trouble redownloading the client on his free trial acc. Allegedly when he tries to log in, it asks for a registration code. Can trial clients not be redownloaded?
Exactly
Once the free trial has been downloaded if you uninstall you can't resume your free trial
hes downloading the wrong client
!faq freetrial
Cheers
this worked for me when i was on ft
is there a way to macro standard/legacy movement?
No there isn’t
Did the moggle tome grind event begin?
Yus
Yep
Oh cool
Fastest grind is Blue Mage Arum Vale?
Aye
No doubt
It's seems a lot slower than the T2 Blue Grind last season...
Yup
Is it?
Still fast tho
I see
Is there a guide or tips for what spells are needed?
I have max level Blue but no spells lol
Ram and Ultra vib for trash
Missile for 1st and 2nd boss
Moonflute, whistle, final sting
!action moonflute
Grants the effect of Waxing Nocturne, increasing damage dealt by 50% and movement speed by 30%.
Duration: 15s
When effect ends, the player is afflicted with Waning Nocturne, preventing the use of auto-attack, weaponskills, spells, or abilities.
Duration: 15s
This technique imitates a peculiar flute wrested from the grasp of a vanquished voidsent. Said creature was initially welcomed as a god by those New World peoples who worship the moon, but it soon became clear to them that the flute was the true source of its power and cruel authority.
Complete 10 stages in the Masked Carnivale.
Type: Magic
Aspect: None
Rank: 1
!action whistle
Increases the potency of the next physical damage spell cast by 80%.
Duration: 30s
Effect cannot be stacked with Boost.
This technique is in fact one of psychological suggestion, albeit suggestion performed on the self. When the proper pitch is attained, the body will respond by producing adrenaline, which can be used to advantage in combat─or, if one happens to be a dhalmel, in attracting a mate.
Dhalmel / Sea of Clouds (16, 30)
Jhammel / The Peaks (26, 30)
Divine Dhalmel / Neverreap
Type: Magic
Aspect: None
Rank: 3
Buff the sting
what role should i be if i dont have blu but want to get carried by blus
ogey
I'll try grab Ram, Ultra Vib, Missle, Final Sting, and Whistle for now
I wanted final sting today but failed
For some reason the sonova bitch wespe didn't give it
Did you get hit and die?
Nope
It just didn't do it
I mean
Friend got hit by final sting, killer wespe died, no spell
are there ever gonna be shb beast tribe allied quests?
Not guaranteed
🤷♂️
Nope
is there a way to get aetherite tickets other than hunts

Blue mage carnivale thing
doing the dailies
Remember mount is a daffodil, fatty moogle is cash cash moneyz
Unfortunately there's no fast way
It’s the only way to rank it up
the wiki says i need a level 50 doh are there any that are better than others for this
no
No
can i just get 1 to level 50 or do the dailies require specific jobs
All crafters are same
1 works fine
Yeah any crafter is fine
Even if it doesn't make sense
I mean have you seen a culinarian cook up some toy airships?
since i've got ishgrard restoration unlocked how long will it take to rank my weaver from 23 to 50
also do manuals wear off while you are logged out
figures but thought i'd ask
i've got 2 hours till i have to log for the night so using one know would be a waste
Also make sure to keep your gear up to date, if you do WVR you can craft most of your outfit
that'll be my task for tomorrow
I'm a lv17 cnj and I keep running out of mana very quickly in solo instances. Like, 2 minutes in I have nothing, even if I only dps. Is this normal? I don't remember having mana issues on previous characters, but that was all before EW.
Use lucid
that's 24
How do you know the proc chance of Missle?
I mean, when doing content as blue
How do you abuse Missle?
You just spam it and hope it procs?
!action Missile
Deals damage equal to 50% of target's current HP.
Chance of successful attack is low. Has no effect on enemies whose level is higher than your own.
A magical imitation of warmachina technology, this technique allows the user to fire a barrage of aetherial missiles. When efficacious─which, bear in mind, is not guaranteed─it sends a shock through the foe that appears to resonate more the greater their vitality.
Enkidu / Battle in the Big Keep

So like when farming Arum as Blue, do you just spam Missle until it hits?
Nope, 24
Pretty much, on bosses
on trash you want to ram into ultravib
I do, even if I'm only doing aero and stone
!action stone
they cost the same
Nvm
you can change eye color and limnal ring at the aesthetician right
eyes are fantasia
fuck ty
Do ShB A marks give Revelation tomestones?
No
What are those?
revelation is no longer available
Tomes from last expansion
They don't give astronomy
yes, they do but you need to be 90
Do they? Haven't done one in a while
er sorry its just aphorism
do be a flub on my part
Only Endwalker a and S gives astronomy right?
mhm
reckon theyll give a free fantasia when the updated gramphics come out?
We don't know
Thats speculating tbh, and still 1,5y so hope for the best
This is a long long way down the road
i doubt it since the improvements will come over the rest of endwalker
probably not tbh
Wasnt graphic update is for 7.0
because its not a massive overhaul anyway
most of the updates is lighting/shaders
its not quite on par with something like wow's model updates
but yeah, the updates are basically not even intended to start until like 7.0
Even then, just that they made thing looks nice, doesn't mean they are obligated to give you fantasia
Your character, no matter the race and gender, should look nicer with these changes
no ones talking obligation, it just seems to fit with their MO
That's your assumption
I know that they give out fantasia when a new playable race is added
they do not
Wait what
Huh
Ahhh
Which costs 20 dollars
I remember ShB some of viera sound is fucking meme to the point people fanta back and lost lime 20$ for that lol
yeah I've been playing since ARR and I've only ever had one free fantasia
And had trouble remembering if they do anything for Viera
voice 7 fem viera at release was... shudder
What's the meme, I'm not aware of that
Like mute the game around parents bad, or loud grunting 6.0 bunny boys bad?
Sounded like an old granny
it basically sounded like an old lady...

Why do I have access to the residential wards from the main city aetherytes on my main, but I can't on my alt? What am I missing? I didn't see a quest anywhere
Iirc there is lvl 5 quest "where the heart is X" to unlock it? 
likely need to do the quest "where the heart is" for that residental district. the quests are in the zones that connect to the housing area
so central shroud for lavender beds, western thanalan for goblet and lower la nosecea for mist
Ah! I see it, thank you
I'm doing prep to get the Necromancer title, I level up my Aetherpool arm by just running POTD with party right?
Runnning POTD on similar lvl at your aetherpool arm lvl and opening silver chest, but yes
How can i get this mount
Ah okay, I'm going in fresh so
Heaven-on-High I believe
you can't get that exact colouring at the moment, but you can get the dodo mount (same model just different colouring) from heaven on high platinum sacks or buy from the marketboard
might be a touch expensive on the marketboard though
Do you know the name of the mount?
dodo horn
Thanks alot
I see. If your aetherpool lvl is too high vs floor your more likely failed to upgrade your aetherpool
Vice versa too but its soo hard with your dmg and def below average
+-5-10 is still okay though
You think I should start levelling with a party or can I just go in solo and start levelling the Aetherpool
Party as in premade or matchmaking?
People in matchmaking tend to speedrun and skip chest except if its on the path
You can make premade with "explore all chest to upgrade aetherpool" so people can set expectation for the run
Although thats betteer saved after you unlock the floor l50 checkpoint
Okay, so matched party till 50 then party finder after
Yeah, keep in mind there is a minimum pool level iirc +20 is for floor 50, floor 40 is 16? I think
If you below that you cant enter and forced to reset to floor 1 and repeat till you can advance (or use 2nd save slot so you keep the OG run)
Ah good call, thanks for letting me know that!
if you ask nicely in 51-60 with matched party most people will help get chests
Anybody else get kicked out?
I just want to be a Necromancer
You'll be playing dark souls after floor 100, ngl XD good luck and best wishes!!
What’s the best job for it?
I just got yeeted off and now it’s taking forever to load in. I’m PS4 btw
I think its completely down
I’m at the login screen. But no login option
If you want to join the discord for HC deep dungeon players here is the link:
are other people getting error 2002?
Yes
Thanks
ahh, okay
I’m PS4 and it says “connecting to PlayStation network” then takes forever to do anything
They just linked to the guides I was already using lolol
I think the guide you use is like the holy book for Deep dungeon ahahaha
You can ask better advice and more specific question though like how to approach certain mob or boss, the whole discord dedicated to it XD
