But will probably end up taking a while

jaunty grotto
#

anyone who can help me with this or explain I play ff14 on console and I just got disconnected I closed app and load the game in and this happened

#

Hey, I have a problem. My brother wants to play the games so he got the free trial on steam, but when he tries to log in the game says his service account is not eligible for the free trial. Any idea what might be causing this?

jaunty grotto
#

Spectrum?

remote lintel
#

@lilac holly he made a mogstation account already i assume?

#

if its saying he's not eligible then it sounds like he already bought the game

sweet nest
jaunty grotto
#

idk

lilac holly
hollow inlet
#

I’m PS4 with spectrum

hollow inlet
lilac holly
#

There is nothing in previous transactions

jaunty grotto
#

oh

remote lintel
#

does he have a mogstation account

jaunty grotto
#

im not using spectrum

remote lintel
#

and if so screenshot what it says on service account status

lilac holly
remote lintel
#

does he have a mogstation account

#

!faq mogstation

zinc orbitBOT

#

this

jaunty grotto
#

whos playing the game right now

lilac holly
oak lily
#

FFXIV account /=/ Square Enix Account

jaunty grotto
#

because this thing is still on my screen

remote lintel
#

@lilac holly click service account status on the left

#

what does it say under "account type"

remote lintel
#

ok thats why

#

he cant play on steam

#

he has the windows trial

twilit arch
#

i would suggest he just download the windows trial

#

!faq freetrial

zinc orbitBOT
jaunty grotto
#

its back

twilit arch
#

and then if he wants to go to the full game thru steam

#

he can

#

He just needs to keep in mind that if/when he buys the game thru steam he is going to be locked into steam. meaning any and all future expansions must be bought from steam or thru an authorized third party seller that sells steam codes

lilac holly
#

Ok

#

New launcher has been installed and game is currently installing

Hey all! Question for experience FF14 Players. Just got into the game and I am wondering, If I was looking to make an Astrologian should I already be running a healer? Or should I just go any job until I get to heavensward?

pulsar hawk
#

Hello! is there any way to change the "play dead" emote position?

twilit arch
plain python
#

will 6.1 remove weekly lock of P1-4?

tulip chasm
twilit arch
#

but leveling a healer from the start can be kind of boring tbh

#

since they don't have many dps skills, especially at low levels

twilit arch
buoyant zephyr
#

Ty for clarifying that, @twilit arch That was my concern as well! Just figured i'd get some community advice before setting out to far!

plain python
twilit arch
#

you do get more tools at higher levels that kind of help to get rid of the tedium of lacking dps skills

#

esp as an ast

#

its just more exacerbated at lower levels imo

tulip chasm
#

ogcd heals help make your uptime better too

flint pollen
#

hello folks and i need some help and i have already done 12 of the 24 of Alexanders Duties and quests and i have not got where i need to pick up the other 12 which i was informed extremes ? and where i can get this ???

tulip chasm
#

they're savages

#

you can find them in mhor dhona

flint pollen
#

ok thx

tulip chasm
#

do note

#

that you have to find a group to do that content with

#

because you cannot queue that in duty finder

flint pollen
#

i looked in the town of idllshyre

#

thx again

#

i know the duty would take forever because ppl are doing higher lvl content so and i know what you are saying either have a premade party or do the party search

tulip chasm
#

savages are harder than extremes

modest igloo
tulip chasm
#

so also take note of that, their difficulty usually takes some time to get accustomed to with the mechanics

#

or that

modest igloo
#

In party finder

flint pollen
#

well this goon is lvl 68 and another server lol

tulip chasm
#

for some reason i forgot unsync existed lmfao

not sure if this is where to ask but does anyone know the most time efficient thing to run for the irregular tomestones this time?

Reset is in 5 hours not 4, right? DST screwing with me

#

Also kupo bot is screwing with me if I say !reset

faint flare
#

!weekly

zinc orbitBOT
#
Tick, Tock, Kupo!
Time Until Weekly Reset:

**<t:1647327600:F>

4 hours, 5 minutes, 12 seconds**

faint flare
#

The server doesn't observe DST

worthy harbor
#

Ok then why is kupo saying 3 am when reset was at 5 am before? DST is one hour not two

limber hound
#

Maybe discord recognizes DST

#

but not FF14 itself

tulip chasm
#

which is a universal time calculator

#

whatever your seeing applies to your timezone

lime ore
#

Can someone tell me a macro to use Nascent Flash or dragon eye without a target?

#

that's super cumbersome, wish it was optional

heavy wadi
#

just. press it?

lime ore
#

maybe the pvp version is diff, won't let me

heavy wadi
#

and nascent can't be used on yourself only

#

it has to be used on another target as of 6.0

lime ore
#

aw. So I guess just a mouseover one then right

raven sage
#

yes pvp version of dragon sight can't

tulip chasm
twilit arch
#

bloodwhetting is the single target version of nascent iirc?

faint flare
#

Yes

lime ore
twilit arch
#

though looks like dont have it in pvp

raven sage
#

pvp doesn't have it

heavy wadi
#

bloodwhetting prolly not gonna be in pvp, yeah

lime ore
#

You only have the one

wheat plume
#

i just saw someone killing ifrit extreme unsync with 5 hits with SMN in some seconds? How did that happen? My DRG at ilvl 590 still needs more hits and time to do it. Is there a way to activet being stronger while unsync? Or is it that SMN is really broken for old unsync content lol?

boreal storm
#

Crits?

faint flare
#

SMN can frontload a ton of potency

#

Due to bahamut

#

Literally 1200+600 potency ogcds ontop of the 520 from Astral impulse and wyrmwaves

wheat plume
#

lol, so SMN is the job to use when farming unsync?

boreal storm
#

Doesn’t matter, use whatever you want

wheat plume
#

yeah, but if I can oneshot something unsync in 5 seconds instead of using 30 seconds, then it does matter if I care about time

#

it doesn't mean the jobs are unbalanced, cause it's unsync, just noting that that job is more efficient for farming

smoky glade
#

is the "mixed races are rare in Eorzea" just an excuse to not go down that rabbit hole of character creation requests? I feel like there are more mixed race couples than not-mixed couples. Limsa alone has a Miqo-Hyur, Roe-Hyur, Roe-Miqo-Hyur, etc. (unnamed NPCs). Sure they might be like failed attempts by the guys, but it's still weird to see if it's supposed to be rare

tulip chasm
twilit arch
#

also i would just say that the whole thing of mixed race couples being taboo is like an older thing seemingly

#

in lore

#

since races have mingled a fair bit nowadays, its likely on the decline

#

but a lot of those limsa npcs aren't necessarily couples

#

vast majority are prostitutes and their customers

smoky glade
#

right right, thank you

livid birch

Do you get penalized if your game server loses connection?

Asking for a friend. Friend (free trial) preordered EW and has the code for menphina earrings but haven't used it due to certain irl issues.

Can the preorder code still be redeemed once they sub now?

twilit arch
#

they need to do it soon

#

it expires on the 31st

faint flare
#

I think you have until the 21st

boreal storm
#

I’m pretty sure they said it’d last for 3 months and it’s almost time

faint flare
#

Or 31st

#

It expires soon

wheat plume
#

to learn something with blu, do i need only to get hit by it, or anything else?

boreal storm
#

See it

twilit arch
#

you need to just see the cast

faint flare
#

See it cast

#

Don't need to get hit

wheat plume
#

see means my character look at the enemy casting, or just have the attack appear in my screen?

faint flare
#

Enemy casts it fully

boreal storm
#

The attack is cast, not interrupted in any way

wheat plume
#

If my blu is lvl 62, can i get an attack from a lvl 68 enemy?

faint flare
#

Level doesn't matter

boreal storm
#

As long as you see the attack, you have a shot at learning

faint flare
#

Just have aggro on the mob, see it cast and have the enemy die

upper cove
#

Got it thanks

sweet nest
#

do you guys think its quicker to run the 4 tomestone dungeons or the 10 praetorium? i haven't leveled blue mage so just doing it through duty finder so i can level alts also

autumn hedge
#

Do you have to be a lvl 90 gatherer to get a lvl 90 treasure map?

faint flare
#

Dungeons by far

sweet nest
#

okay so just keep spamming the dungeons that give 4? thanks

boreal storm
sweet nest
#

tank yes

faint flare
#

45mins to an hour for 10 tomes is terrible

#

Dungeons go so much faster with competent people

sweet nest
#

figured as much, just wanted to make sure

wheat plume
#

watching an attack is guaranteed to learn? if its from a regular enemy

faint flare
#

No

#

Spells aren't guaranteed to learn unless they're In duties and you're synced

boreal storm
#

Also you have to be alive, obviously

wheat plume
#

is it ok to watch an attack like 25 times and not learning it yet?

faint flare
#

Kill it to.try and Learn it

#

You see it cast then kill it

wheat plume
#

oh, so i learn it when i kill it, not when it casts it

#

i was just staying alive lol

#

what blu spell do i need for farming tomes in aurum vale besides RAM, ultravibration and missile?

I have a question regarding the Steam/SE account linking

If I link my SE account to my Steam account, on another PC can I log into FFXIV without steam (assuming this other PC has retail FFXIV installed)? Or would I have to install Steam on this new PC and use my Steam Account?

faint flare
#

You MUST use steam to play the game if you brought it on steam

slate cosmos
#

Right, but after linking the two accounts, if I have a different PC with retail FFXIV, can I still log in using only my SE account?

faint flare
#

You wouldn't be able to use your Steam linked account

boreal storm
#

It’s a completely different account at that point

faint flare
#

The link basically does what console does and forces your login ID in and locks it for that steam account

slate cosmos
#

So my question is, if I link my accounts together,

Computer A has Steam FFXIV installed. I would have to log into both Steam and then SE account.

Computer B has Retail FFXIV installed. Could I still log into this computer? Or would I have to install Steam and FFXIV Steam on this computer?

boreal storm
#

You have to use steam

#

For a steam account

pure zenith
#

you can log in to mogstation but you wont be able to play on computer B without downloading steam

faint flare
#

MUST use steam

#

That's why I capitalised it

pure zenith
#

once you buy steam YOU MUST use steam to launch the game

slate cosmos
faint flare
#

Doesn't matter

#

You MUST launch via steam

boreal storm
#

Official launcher and steam can’t coexist on the same account

faint flare
#

It doesn't give two shits what pc it is

slate cosmos
faint flare
#

Cause that's not what's determining what's it linked to

slate cosmos
#

As far as I know, my SE account has no idea what my Steam account is.

faint flare
#

Even before the link you needed to launch via steam

#

Unless you did that work around thing

boreal storm
#

Look at your mogstation account

pure zenith
faint flare
#

Cause your mogstation is tied to it

slate cosmos
#

So, my ultimate goal is, I never want to use Steam. Would my only option is to re-buy FFXIV on retail?

boreal storm
#

YES

faint flare
#

You would need a completely new mogstation account

#

And rebuy it all

#

Your mogstation is already linked to your steam

boreal storm
#

But they’re basically the same, so there’s really no point in doing that. I’m just saying

faint flare
#

This new link thing is basically a double link for security

slate cosmos
pure zenith
#

!faq mogstation

boreal storm
#

Account status

zinc orbitBOT
boreal storm
#

It doesn’t say what steam account is linked

#

It just says whether you’re using steam period

faint flare
#

It knows you are steam cause you.used a steam key when registering the game

slate cosmos
#

So if I want to change this to Retail FFXIV and not Steam FFXIV, I just have to buy Retail FFXIV? How can I bind that to my already existing SE account?

faint flare
#

You make a completely new account

boreal storm
slate cosmos
#

And how would that new MogStation account know my characters?

faint flare
#

Nope

boreal storm
#

It won’t

faint flare
#

completely new

#

Means completely new

slate cosmos
#

And that's what I wanted to know.

boreal storm
#

As I said earlier, They can’t coexist

jovial quarry
#

If you're on Steam, you can not unlink/convert to retail period.

boreal storm
#

If you bought retail, you also can’t convert to steam

#

The one chance to swap is if a not steam free trial goes to a steam full game

crystal otter
#

How do people use the quick translate so fast? Do you have to set up macros, or are there commands for it?

#

Type partial of what you wanna say, then press... Tab?

jovial quarry
#

Yeah type a few letters in the word you want, hit tab, and it'll do a quick search for matching terms.

#

Do you have to be lvl 90 gatherer to get a lvl 90 treasure map to show on the harvest list?

#

If I apply Higanbana to an enemy and die, does my Weakness debuff on rez affect the damage of the already-applied Higanbana?

cursive ridge
#

dots that are placed on the enemy in this game snapshot their power on application

#

so it doesnt matter what happens afterwards, it will do the full duration with the initial buffs you had when you applied it

#

an adjacent quick tip- in most situations, when the boss becomes untargetable and does some fancy phase transition stuff or other, the dots on the boss do no damage

worthy roost
#

so, i have bought the game through steam, and currently i'm living in the EU region, if i move to the US will i not be able to buy expansions through steam, because of region locking and possibly not being able to redeem the code, because i expect to receive an NA key when i do move to the US

i see, thank you i will keep that in mind

sorry, that was off topic

#

Materia housing is closed

#

only Ishgard housing is visible since no one can get any there

oak lily
#

that too

twilit arch
#

its a side quest that simply unlocks the housing district as an option on the main aetheryte in ul'dah. not necessarily to complete right now (and not possible since housing is not open on any materia world)

#

once 6.1 releases, you'll be able to do it

#

ah ok, thanks guys

fallen niche
#

So, I want to try collecting all the protags, the first 3 on my list are Zidane, WoL and Cloud, the first 2 come from gold packs and cloud is 1 mil mgp, should I just keep buying tons of gold packs to get the protags or save 1 mil and get cloud

last kayak
#

why do my retainers keep bringing me back walls/floors/roofs/etc for hingan aesthetic? Is that the only one?

twilit arch
#

because your retainer steals them from those houses

#

real answer: its just rng venture bullshit

#

and no, its not the only housing accessories you can get from quick ventures

rain flower
#

how does truth of the forest work

#

do i have to use it at 9am eorzea time?

cursive ridge
#

no

#

you press it once and it constantly monitors current zone until you cancel it

rain flower
#

it says im unable to locate

cursive ridge
#

means there's nothing currently in the zone

#

or you don't meet a prerequisite of some sort to see it

#

for example, you're too low level or don't have the legendary book learned

rain flower
#

pain

#

i have to do it for a quest

wraith vapor
#

Yep. So you hang around that area until 9am ET with Truth of the Forests on, or you return to that area at 9am ET

#

If I have the right node, it should last for 3hrs in-game time though. So you can head there anytime from 9am to 12nn ET

rain flower
#

its 10pm eorzea time for me

#

i dont know where exactly the nodes are tho

cursive ridge
#

eorzea time is universal for all servers

#

the game will show you when you get there

rain flower
#

im not sure exactly how long it will be until 9am

cursive ridge
#

find the item you want on garland tools and find its node, it will show you countdown in real time minutes

#

and you can set a browser alert

rain flower
#

im not sure how

Grand Company FAQ

Which Grand Company should I choose?

The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you choose beside the quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'. Here is a link leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies:

Grand Company Gear (click the JP flag at the top right to change to english)

How do I get Grand Company Seals?

You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. You can use these seals to promote yourself to higher ranks from the Personnel Officer. Promotions also require completion of your Grand Company Hunting Log and completing specific quests found at your Grand Company base.

Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in exchange for more seals.

thanks a lot that helps with the seals

there is no joke, that is the basics of the rotation

depends on your kill time on occasion

mellow shell
#

for eureka dungeons, do I want to bother grinding/buying the armour sets for them? what do they do for me exactly?

#

realistically only wanting the golden set from the final eureka dungeon for glam

modest igloo
#

theres only 1 dungeon in eureka and thats BA, which is used to augment the +1 gear to give it an elemental bonus

#

in order to get the +1 armor tho you'll need to complete a relic, grab the armor set from pyros, then augment it in hydatos

mellow shell
modest igloo
#

yep, the set starts in pyros

#

which you can only get once you've gotten 50 logos and completed a pyros relic

mellow shell
#

okay finally understanding this, sounds like a grind but at least I'm understanding at all what to do

#

good first step

modest igloo
#

Mr happy has a good guide to eureka

#

but it is a long grind

#

about 100 hours

#

at least when I was doin it in 5.5

#

I'm going to be doing it mostly solo/duo too, figured there'd be more people there but even when busy I didn't find a whole lot

devout crystal
#

What’s a good solo class?

#

RDM? DNC? RPR? SMN?

pulsar escarp
#

Depends what you’re soloing

#

old trials depending on the level can be war, pld, or if you want damage any bursty dps or anything

#

potd, anything can do it but MCH and rdm do well

Do trusts not do AOE attacks?

#

I still don’t know what you’re planning to do specifically but glad I could help lmao

solemn jewel
pulsar escarp
#

Yeah trusts are pretty slow for that reason

solemn jewel
#

they're designed to be slower than real ppl

#

so they do single target

storm sapphire
#

Heck, by the time they get to the last add my aoe damage gets it down to 10% so it’s like they’re doing no damage sadcarby

thats the point

Does anybody know why the store looks like this when I try to click on different categories?

midnight tinsel
narrow jay
# storm sapphire Do trusts not do AOE attacks?

Trust NPCs use a very limited, programmed sequence of abilities with a few extra skills for situational use and/or flavor. When they're using their DPS skills, some of those may be AoE, but likely not all of them.

#

They also vary their damage output inversely with the player's damage output, so that runs with them take roughly the same amount of time regardless of skill level.

which is to say

#

is there any specific requirements to get the dreadwyrm gear?

#

like can i get it as any class

narrow jay
#

Yeah, it can drop regardless of class.

onyx kiln
#

this is where i need to click if i missed out on my sub payment and want to pay it of now right?

narrow jay
#

yep

onyx kiln
#

okay, it brought me back the front page each time i clicked it so i assumed there was something wrong, until i actually read what was in front of me

light lintel
#

Just wondering quickly, does unsyncing the Atherochemical research facility still give me the 150 poetics?

#

or does it have to be run normally to get the poetics..

modest igloo
#

unsync doesnt give completion rewards, only chests

light lintel
#

thats the thing, this dungeon doesnt give chests

#

instead it provides more poetics.

#

but i guess normal runs it is then :D

serene saffron
#

Yo I'm a little confused regarding retainer jobs

#

Is there actually a difference between them?

I was told to put my main but I'm an Astro

umbral dune
#

retainer's level can NOT pass that of the same class/job you currently have

serene saffron
#

Right, but does it matter if it's a DPS class or something else?

umbral dune
#

combat (tank, healer, dps), DoL, DoH

serene saffron
#

Also, should I hold out on assigning a job if I'm considering to switch a main?

#

I'm level 66

umbral dune
#

fall in each can gather specific item, in the same group, especially combat, not really any different

serene saffron
#

Oh, healers qualify as combat classes as well?

#

Coolcool

serene saffron
fresh jasper
#

It's green dps class

serene saffron
#

And if everybody is DPS...
...
no one is

umbral dune
#

what other class/job you have right now, the one that get you unlock AST

serene saffron
#

Hm?

#

What other classes I have? uh

#

35 PLD/60 GNB/57 SCH+SMN/33 MNK

#

I'm trying to reach 70 for Sage and reaper

#

Considering DK/Warrior too, idk honestly

#

Oh and 58 BLM, how could I forget

umbral dune
#

so you would want an arcanist as it is the current highest level job with base class

#

this is to avoid level cap

serene saffron
#

I already have a level 30 Thaum retainer, I can switch it's class now though

#

That was the question

#

Apparently there's a difference between "class" and "job"

umbral dune
#

than keep it until you find your main job (the one reach cap level first)

serene saffron
#

Roger that

#

Makes sense honestly, the retainer has 28 more levels to go until it caps. I'll probably get close to 90 by then

umbral dune
#

retainer: from class to job, retain level, change job/class, reset level so you need to think ahead

odd wraith
#

Where can I find this!?

#

Or anything equippable by Dancer with the same model

oak lily
#

that is equippable by dnc tho?

leaden ginkgo
#

Most time efficient way to level a DPS* from 70-90? I assume Bozja (idk)

odd wraith
solemn jewel
#

and its event gear so..

odd wraith
#

Noooo whyy 😭
Thanks for help though

solemn jewel
#

if its rerun u can get it

#

otherwise peeposhrug

upper cove
#

@odd wraith yoshi P talked about looking into bringing bsck this set of event items. We can only pray

devout crystal
#

I can’t unlock bozja as a reaper!?

modest igloo
#

not 70

devout crystal
#

I can’t accept required quest as a reaper

#

I guess it’s because Reaper is a new job.

steep egret
#

usually new jobs aren't locked out of doing old content, so that doesn't sound right

#

even if it is just an unlock quest

devout crystal
#

I can’t accept “fire in the forge” quest as a reaper.

steep egret
#

and what does the game say?

#

screenshot?

solemn jewel
#

isnt fire in the forge for the first step of the relic weapon

#

rpr has no relic weapon

devout crystal
#

Required class/job

solemn jewel
#

iirc u need to "start" a relic to even unlock southern front

devout crystal
#

Yeah

#

So i need to unlock it with a different class.

#

Dang

solemn jewel
#

just pick ur lvl 80 class?

#

or is reaper ur only lvl 80

devout crystal
#

I only got a reaper lol

solemn jewel
#

Yea then u cant haha

devout crystal
#

Any alternative to level up fast for my reaper?

solemn jewel
#

msq

devout crystal
#

80-90

solemn jewel
#

endwalker gets u to 90

devout crystal
#

Got it

#

Thx

#

anyone what does JP people see for auto translate of Ok' Zundu?

oak lily
#

probably that?

#

depends on which style its in I think

devout crystal

Reaper feels extremely incomplete and not impressive sub lvl90. I can’t imagine taking RPR to lower level dungeon.

Pretty sure all place names are in auto translate

#

Hey guys, after installing Gshade, when I stream on discord to friends they say my stream keeps freezing and stuttering, anyone know if there is a way around this, besides uninstalling Gshade?

warm snow
#

I admit that second one is mostly snark

#

Stream via capture card on another system?

sacred spear
warm snow
#

Then run at 60

oak lily
#

once you get Enshroud it takes off

warm snow
#

The ff14 engine is known to be unstable above 60fps

devout crystal
#

Yeah. I had to check all my skills in the menu just to make sure I am not missing any skills. Lol

warm snow
#

Simply put you appear to be asking more of your pc than it can handle

sacred spear
#

the performance is not the issue, as to me when streaming I have no FPS drops. The freezes my friends reported are not from FPS drops, more like a freeze on the streaming itself, if

warm snow
#

Well that's either your Internet crapping out

#

Or there's not enough power left for your streaming software

sacred spear
#

I though it maybe be a know issue with Gshade itself

warm snow
#

Gshade means your cpu usage is higher

#

Because its renderingall your shades n shit

#

So likely just hitting pc limits

#

Outside this ask #tech or gshade discord

sacred spear
#

thanks for the imput, didnt know gshade had a discord

#

will look for it, thanks 🙂

warm snow
#

Idk if it does

#

Look for it's official support

#

Cuz this is just an ff14 reddit discord

sacred spear
#

ow, I understand that, as I said, though it was a know issue or something, maybe someone would reply "oh yeah, gshade screws with your streaming on discord"

#

then I wouldnt botter

grand bluff
#

It screws you streaming in general unless u have a super pc

sacred spear
#

it not a super PC, but i have a 3700x, 2070 super, 32gb of ram... though it would be enough

grand bluff
#

Should be enough then I think 😅

#

My wife have similar problem but she got a less powerful computor

sacred spear
#

I see, will try messing with the presets or try windowed to see if it changes something

solemn jewel
#

Are u using a gameplay filter

sacred spear
#

i use a pretty low performance impact preset, lose like 5 fps from no shaders

solemn jewel
#

Ah hm

sacred spear
#

i have tried straming the game itself and my screen, both have the freezes on discord. Other games, more demanding than ff with the shaders dont have this (cyberpunk and stuff like that). Probably is just the gshade messing with things 😦

grand bluff
#

Thats my guess too

sacred spear
#

thanks guys for the help!

mortal latch
#

hello everyone, a friend of mine is doing the heavensward relict weapon and is stuck at phase 7,light farming

oak lily
#

I think its A9S?

mortal latch
#

hes done all the farming and have the things and runes are ful

oak lily
#

is the one to do

mortal latch
#

but when hes trying to complete the quest,it doesnt give him the 270 weapon

upper cove
#

Whats the specific error

mortal latch
#

can it be the game is bugged?

upper cove
#

Might be missing just a bit if light

#

Haven't seen any bugs regarding anima

#

What does his light rune page say now

oak lily
#

also Pneumite

modest igloo
#

if he made it before EW

#

i think you go back to the crystal sand lady

mortal latch
#

i think he done it rn so after ew

upper cove
#

After the light farming + 15 pneumites

#

Theres one more stage where you need to do 12 trials + 1 archaic enchanted ink

mortal latch
#

rn is the 7th the matter

#

since he can complete the quest but doesnt get the weapon

#

for the quest

oak lily
#

is it unequipped

mortal latch
#

yes

oak lily
#

the pneumite is all gotten?

mortal latch
#

he does have everything:all runes full, the pneumites all 15

oak lily
#

Some Assembly Required is done?

mortal latch
#

hes giving me the screenshots

oak lily
#

has he done everything listen in that wiki page?

!faq anima

zinc orbitBOT
mortal latch
#

so,he says that he has everything otherwise he couldnt complete it

#

but it didnt change the status of the quest

#

quest still there even after completing it

oak lily
#

what's the name of the quest

#

because you can do them for any job, just not at the same time

pearl wharf
#

How accurate is the ffxiv collect website?

mortal latch
#

since his game is on german language:"Die Entscheidung der Seele"

oak lily
#

...what's that in English

ok,he found the solution:have to redo the weapons stats^^

#

tyvm for the huge help from everyone^^

#

have a good day

did the english elemental raiding scene dwindle with the opening of the OCE servers or are they sill thriving?

warm snow

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Jp players are probably gonna be less tolerant with oce servers up

jade quartz

Still thriving

#

Still more active than OCE raiding scene by orders of magnitude

Haven't heard any stories of JP players being less tolerant.

You can pick whatever other spells you want to fill in the remaining spell slots. I usually like to bring White Wind, Song of Torment, Suparnakha, Sharpened Knife, and Fire Angon

Sonic boom is the main recommendation for single target since it has the shortest cast time

open coral

Yeah, Sonic Boom is good too.

Been open since mid February

#

can I rewatch the hidden gorge cutscene the lil npc fellow gave me that i skipped when i first unlocked it

#

ig its technically the rival wings cutscene, im here at inn but cant find it in book

umbral dune
#

i dont think you can do that in the inn but you can try untick the disable cutscence after the first time (maybe all 3 of them) then enter hidden gorge again, might be a waste of time but at least you can

vast ferry

if i disabled "enable normal battle music" in settings will it stop playing boss music or just the normal battle theme

only combat music in overworld

leaden ginkgo
mellow pike
#

i've never played a game that had dancer as an option and as since that's what I do in real life, I kinda feel like I have to lol

warm snow
#

@mellow pike to finish the last job quest you'll need to either die and do very easy mode or finish stormblood for the ilevel 400 gear. Cuz that's roughly what it's scaled for

mellow pike
#

and the job looks pretty cool 🙂

#

hope its not too hard though. I'm not the best at video games in general lol

pulsar escarp
#

Proc based, easy job.

#

Press the flashing buttons, if there aren't any press your first combo, there's higher end stuff you can focus on in a minute after you reach cap

warm snow
#

Easy to play, last quest is just scaled for level 70 endgame ish gear

pulsar escarp
#

and dance whenever you can again, standard and technical step are your biggest skills

warm snow
#

It's the same with all post hw expac job quests although my knowledge is pre stat squish so it might not be too bad

surreal anvil
#

you can check your sales history to double check if you are playing right now

queen gulch

is it possible to use a macro to put a macro on the hotbar like with /hotbar?

hi everyone, I only plan to get into this game in summer which is in about 2 months time. But Steam is having a sale now. If i buy the game now, will my trial timer for the membership start ticking?

warm snow
#

Trial isn't on timer

solemn jewel
#

they mean the 30 free days

robust halo
#

yup the 30 day trial

umbral dune
#

free 30 days, not 30 days trial

cursive ridge
#

it's not a trial

#

it's the full base game with 30 days of subscription

#

(and expansions if you're looking at Complete version)

robust halo
#

ah so will the 30 days subscription start ticking? as soon as I buy it, or does it need to have some form of activation which i can put off for 2 months

solemn jewel
#

the details dont matter rn, the questions is wether the days start ticking after buying it or only after the codes are applied. i told them to ask here because of the new steam link that i dont fully understand

cursive ridge
#

you can start free trial for no cost, lasts indefinitely

solemn jewel
#

its about buying the game rn because its on sale

raven sage
#

It should still only start once the code has been used

umbral dune
#

if you upgrade to full version, instantly, otherwise like getting a code then after the code got registered

robust halo
#

ah okay. I'm looking to get the steam version. But not too familiar with the process. Do i have to manually copy and paste an activation code to start my subscription?

#

Assuming i'm buying the complete edition (FFXIV Online starter edition + FFXIV: Endwalker - standard edition)

boreal storm
#

Yep, you get it from the CD keys menu and just...

#

Starter edition is the base game so it has to be registered first

okay so on this, it says "free trial". But I have to purchase the base game for it yeah? And is this free trial "time based" or level based?

glossy flare
#

Eu apparently

boreal storm
#

Free trial is the demo on steam

glossy flare
#

cause as the name suggests it's free

#

also it's not time limited

#

just limited in terms of content + social restrictions (content being the exact same as the starter edition)

warm snow
robust halo
#

ah okay, cos im only gonna be playing a lot in 2 months time when I'm on holidays. So till then i can play the free trial right? without wasting money under-utilized subscription for now

leaden ginkgo
umbral dune
#

you should create a free trial account with steam now then when you ready to commit (not to waste the free days), upgrade that account by entering the code, fully register the service

glossy flare
#

Yes, you can upgrade from the trial at any time you want

leaden ginkgo
#

Is there a way to keep up with taxes? Ingame

you just can't go back to the trial once you upgrade

Aside from checking regularly no

lusty girder

On the duty finder, it always says "Adventurer in Need (Tank)," is this something that can be changed, or is it always like that, or do I just see it like that all the time because everyone needs tanks?

warm snow

There's no free to play mode. You use up the free trial and it's gone

boreal storm
#

It changes whenever

glossy flare
#

Tanks are just rarer

open coral
lusty girder
#

dang I chose healer because I thought healers would be the most needed

open coral
#

Tank/healer in need is most common

glossy flare
#

but the bonus for being adventurer in need is very minor

#

hunting for it is not needed

open coral
#

Healer a little less so since everyone's leveling SGE now.

yeah I just prefer to stick to one class though, can't quite explain why

In need bonus isn't enough that you should change your role just to get it.

warm snow
glossy flare
#

there are some jobs you can not pick at character creation, just FYI

#

so you may wanna take a peek at those at least

#

might miss something you'd end up enjoying

leaden ginkgo
cosmic sleet
#

can I abandon green/ready to hand in beast tribe quests and get a chance to do them again? or are they gone for today gg i did them on the wrong job

warm snow
#

They reset daily so you have 50 minutes to redo them

cosmic sleet
#

but I will get a chance to redo them yeah? if i abandon

warm snow
#

Yes

cosmic sleet
#

easy ty

warm snow
#

So gtfo and do that

surreal anvil
#

i think as long as you picked them up already, you can even do them after the reset and turn in

#

and still pick up new quests afterwards

warm snow
#

Not the question

#

He did them on the wrong job

#

So if he abandoned after reset they just gone

surreal anvil
#

aren't you able to just change class for turn in?

warm snow
#

Not after arr

surreal anvil
#

ah

warm snow
#

Tied to job

boreal storm
#

Because quest syncing and all that

surreal anvil
#

wait if you abandon, do you get your beast quest allowance back? i dont remember

warm snow
#

You do

surreal anvil
#

yea i normally only do the most recent Beast tribe until i cap on reputation, so i normally have like extras so dont remember

#

i'm assuming you also get leve quest allowance back if you abandon?

boreal storm
#

No

warm snow
#

Leves are different

surreal anvil

oh boo

warm snow

And technically a 1.0 remnant

#

NIGHTMARE

lusty girder
#

I hear people referring to quests as "2.1" or "3.0" or "2.3" and I'm curious if there's an easy place to check what content is associated with which version

#

I'm about to fight titan, am I still in 1.0 content?

warm snow
#

X.0 is an expansion

#

1.0 is the original ff14 which was literally and in game nuked

#

So that's gonezo

#

You're in 2.0

#

X.1-5 are patches added after an expansion releases

surreal anvil
#

2.x is ARR, 3.x is Heavensward, 4.x is Stormblood, 5.x is Shadowbringer and 6.x is Endwalker

warm snow
#

Basically the postgamr added over 2 years

#

Leading into the next expansion

faint flare
#

And the achievements you get for completing quests in the post story mark when you have finished a patch

boreal storm
#

Lvl 1-50 is ARR
50-60 is HW so on and so on

lusty girder
#

Cool thank you! DLCs come in bunches of 10 I guess? so 61-70 is stormblood and 71-80 is shadowbringers

warm snow
#

Every expansion increased the level cap by 10

shut orbit
#

hmm this new event i heard the cards are hard to get

#

but i dont see them on the shop

#

anyone knows why?

boreal storm
#

You haven’t done the required content

faint flare
#

It says at the bottom of the page the requirements

#

2 Will become available for exchange once you have completed the quest "An Unwanted Truth."
*3 Will become available for exchange once you have completed the quest "An Auspicious Encounter."
*4 Will become available for exchange once you have completed the quest "Dramatis Personae."

i cant find the registraion code on the mog station

#

it say i need transfer full game when i alr purchase shadowbringer and the base game

#

and i did purchase endwalker but i didnt enter the code and it say it redeem

open coral
#

Are you sure you're logging in with the correct account type? Steam if you have the Steam version, official launcher if you have the PC version?

bronze hedge
#

yes i did

open coral
#

When you try to download the game, I mean.

bronze hedge
#

i install the offical launcer as i use it to redeem my steam code there

open coral
#

You can't use the official launcher for the Steam version.

#

You have to use Steam for the Steam version.

bronze hedge
#

even with steam version

#

it ask me to enter a registraion code

#

its mad weird

warm snow
#

@glossy flare buy faq has been updated but is now super long

bronze hedge
#

its been 2 days since im trying to figure this out

open coral

#

You must log into the Mog Station account management website and enter your Steam key to register your purchase to a FFXIV account.

#

!faq mogstation

bronze hedge
#

i finish shadow bringer and wqaited for endwalker

glossy flare
bronze hedge
#

but i didnt play endwalker

open coral
#

Hmm

bronze hedge
#

idk whats wrong with it

#

let me ss my ffxiv character

open coral
#

Can you screenshot this part of your Mogstation page?

#

Should be all the way at the bottom of the Account Status page.

jade quartz
#

^ under "Service Account Status" on the sidebar

warm snow
#

Did you make sure you downloaded the correct launcher, like steam or Windows?

#

Side note

jade quartz
#

also what it says under "account type" at the top of the same page

warm snow
#

!faq quicklauncher

zinc orbitBOT
bronze hedge
#

it says i have to buy everything

jade quartz
open coral
warm snow
#

It does work for steam

jade quartz
#

Quicklauncher works fine with steam

open coral
#

Really? Is that new?

#

Last I knew it didn't.

bronze hedge
jade quartz
#

however the issue doesn't seem related to actual launcher issues

#

no it's worked with Steam forever

warm snow
#

It was out of commission for like a day but that's it

bronze hedge
#

this is me playing back in 2021

warm snow
#

Always been steam compatible

open coral
#

Yeah, the problem seems to be something else entirely.

jade quartz
bronze hedge
#

ye it has no tick but i purchase the game a long time ago

open coral
#

I wonder if maybe you deleted your service account instead of stopping your sub?

warm snow
#

Then you registered the code to a different account

#

Or what aura said

jade quartz
#

Then you don't own the game on that account and never have. If you bought and played the game in the past it must have been on a different account.

heavy wadi
#

^

#

sounds like you made a new account rather than log in to an existing one.

open coral
#

The older version of the Mogstation had a... "feature" where the "Cancel Subscription" and "Cancel Service Account" buttons were right next to each other.

#

A lot of people got trapped by that and ended up canceling their account when they only meant to unsub.

bronze hedge
open coral
#

No, I'm saying that when you cancelled your subscription, you may have accidentally cancelled your service account

bronze hedge
jade quartz
#

???

#

ok

#

go to Service Account Status in the Mog Station sidebar

#

near top left

#

and then scroll down to the bottom of the page

twilit arch
#

cancelling service account wouldn't have "deleted" their licenses off their account

jade quartz
#

You told us there were no ticks on that part of your page so everything we just told you is based on that

bronze hedge
#

found it

jade quartz
#

ok so yeah you haven't registered any game purchases to this account

#

can you also tell us what it says under account type, at the top of the same page?

open rock
#

its possible to easily "boost" a friends job to 20 (by killing mobs they tag) but now that endwalker is out, is there a viable way to "boost" them to 30?

jade quartz
#

this part

bronze hedge
#

i have 2 acc

#

so there no wait i cancel it

open coral
#

So we're back to either the game was never registered to your account, or it was a different account.

bronze hedge
#

the admoise is the one i paid

jade quartz
twilit arch
#

and that drops off around 20 or so

jade quartz
bronze hedge
jade quartz
#

But this here is telling me you're on the Free Trial.

bronze hedge
#

but i purchase the game

jade quartz
#

Yeah you have absolutely never bought the game on this account

bronze hedge
#

let me show the receipt

jade quartz
#

not on this account.

open coral
#

You may have bought it but never registered it.

jade quartz
#

If you bought and registered the game in years past it was on a different account

surreal anvil
#

yea i'm pretty sure you logged into wrong account

jade quartz
#

or you never actually did that, and were playing on the free trial back then too

#

Doesn't matter if you bought the game, if you never actually registered the purchase to your account

#

It's just a game key sitting in your library not being used

surreal anvil
#

nah he had a level 80 WHM so he definitely bought it

open coral
#

That's unlikely since their picture earlier shows a WHM using Trancendence, which is level 80.

jade quartz
#

Then, definitely wrong account

#

you've made a new free trial account instead of using your old one

surreal anvil
open coral
#

So we're looking at probably wrong account.

heavy wadi
#

yeah, you logged into an entirely different account somehow.

bronze hedge
surreal anvil
#

or possibly he didn't link his steam to his SE account after they did the patch thing last week

jade quartz
#

You'll need to track down your old account.

bronze hedge
#

look

#

this is the same email

warm snow
#

Ans/or steam linked it

bronze hedge
#

as i log into mog

jade quartz
heavy wadi
#

it's very clearly a different account

#

physically impossible to have free trial status and a level 80 job

jade quartz
#

You don't log into Mog Station with an email address

open coral
#

Based on all of the information you've given us, you've logged into a completely different Mogstation account than you were using previously.

jade quartz
#

You have definitely made a separate account from the one you used to play on

#

that's a fact

heavy wadi
#

what lyon said.

bronze hedge
#

alright

#

let me go to my latop

#

and log in

jade quartz
#

We can't really help you more, you have to track down your old account details

robust gust
#

Sorry to interject. But regarding the Astronomy ilvl 580 590 gear is there any guide on which one to get 1st or I should just follow the rule of thumb Chest piece and pants 1st then the rest

boreal storm
#

Well weapon first if anything

jade quartz
#

Astronomy gear is 590

robust gust
#

oh ya i mean 590

jade quartz
#

First off if you are doing/intend to clear savage

warm snow
#

If you intend to do savage balance has suggested order

jade quartz
#

then only get the astronomy pieces that are part of your final BiS.

warm snow
#

If not weapon will be the best gains

robust gust
limber hound
#

Astronomy wep needs the raid tokens

warm snow
#

And that's 2 weeks of tomes, 7 weeks of normal

jade quartz
#

Otherwise, get weapon ASAP but that requires 7 weeks of tokens from the normal raids

#

in the meantime, if any slot is way behind in ilvl replace that first

#

otherwise yeah basically chest/legs > head/hands/feet > accessories

#

is the priority in terms of how much impact they have on your stats

warm snow
#

There'll be more 590 gear next month via alliance raids but only on the left side. You'll also be able to augment the tome gear to 600 casually

bronze hedge
#

ok i just check my laptop ffxiv account

#

this is what it saysa

robust gust
jade quartz
#

If you've found your old, separate account details

#

then log into the mog station with them and check out status

bronze hedge
#

that my acc that i log into

jade quartz
#

is it the same account

#

or a different one

warm snow
bronze hedge
#

saame account

warm snow
#

Let's just say 4+ months

jade quartz
#

Then again

#

you haven't bought the game on that account

warm snow
jade quartz
#

you need to find your old account

warm snow
#

Or you just logged in on the new account again

#

We can't help you

bronze hedge
#

if i delet3e

jade quartz
#

that message also just appears if you're not subbed.

#

but

bronze hedge
#

then does a email show that i delete it?

jade quartz
#

you're telling us you didn't find your old account

#

you just logged into the same account again

bronze hedge
#

that is my old acc

jade quartz
#

so it's not the same one

bronze hedge
#

its the same username and pass

jade quartz
#

you're giving conflicting info 😔

#

No it's not

#

You don't get two accounts with the same login info

#

That makes them the same account.

#

You've lost your old account details somewhere.

#

We can't help you any further unless you can find them.

#

The account that you're logging into is a free trial account which has never had a bought copy of the game registered to it.

#

The account that you played on in the past and had a level 80 white mage on is a different account to the one you're logging into now.

open coral
#

Also possible that you've got two service accounts registered to the same Mogstation ID

bronze hedge
#

but when i go to my laptop it has the same log in username as the one i log into mog station

open coral
#

On the Mogstation then, go under "Service Account Settings" in the side bar and click on "Switch Service Account"

bronze hedge
#

and then?

open coral
#

You should see your available service accounts for your ID
