wheres the limit break button?
In the general tab of actions and traits
is it normal that when i get a directx 11 crash error that it always behaves entirely differently than the last time?
you shouldnt get crashes in the first plce uwu
-_-
okay so the promotion wants me to do a trial and the company huntnig log, but it says i have completed neither, which is true for the log, but ive already done trials via the roulette
To attempt to provide an actually helpful response: check to make sure your DirectX drivers are up to date, and also try disabling the DirectX 11 mode on your launcher to see if that helps things.
If neither of those change anything in a meaningful way, I recommend asking down in #952326072542847016.
yes
i know
im doing it rn
but it says i havent done a trial either which is wrong
ty! i'll see if any of those things help but it's not an error that is consistent or ruins my play, if it happens i usually just restart my game.
The trial is usually a quest from the commander at hq
wait don't i already have an aethercompas why did stb give me another
It didn’t
Redundancy for people who skipped/misplaced
oh
Doesn't change that it's still in the same place
Back when it was a discardable item, people did a dumb
you can misplace you aethercompas?
Used to
why not remove it from the quest rewards list then
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Because leaving the rewards as they are affects nothing.
laziness
tenacity or skill speed for malee dps
Tenacity is for tanks
Tenacity doesn't do anything for melee
oic
And SKS can be bad
is there a way to do fates unsynched?
You also only want enough skill speed to hit your desired GCD tier.
And it's shit for tanks anyway
some of them have noone doing but cant solo them
Nope
No.
Also sub stats don’t matter unless you’re at level cap
bummer
!faq balance
@old willow Check this server for your class-specific melding priority. If you're not at max level, substats don't really matter, only your primary stat (Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, Mind) matter, and those increase with increasing item level.
👌
Help my fc imploded, what are my chances to find a p3s static right now? Will it get better with 6.1?
well the release rush of the tier is pretty much over but recruitment for statics is a constant thing
I'm literally the only person in my static on twintania
6.1 may have a minor influence on that but not a noticeable one, most likely
I think you mean FC
at least I hope so 😄
anyone know a discord for eureka?
Did you check #resources?
???
being the only person in your static wouldn't make it much of a static
on twintaina
The only person in said static on a particular server lol
why is this guide listed as being 6.08 when it isn't https://www.akhmorning.com/jobs/smn/guide/#overview
Is there a tool where I can see all the mats I'd need for crafting the entire section of craft recipes by level? I want the."I Made That" achievement
What even are the minstrel's ballads
Extremes
ahhh I see
#resources is filled with outdated and falsley advertized guides so i wouldn't go there
what are the unique expansion weapons called
the ones that have like long chains or w/e
Relics
Is grade 3 thanalan topsoil used for relics?
No
oh
Also has several still used discords including for eureka
if you're looking for class guides, you're way better off using the balance discord than googling guides
Wonder why grade 3 than soil is so limited to gather
almost all guides you find are going to come from the balance anyway
Balance or weskalber
you could probably use garland tools or teamcraft to make a list
Depends on player skill level
lotta sites just regurgitate what the balance already has
guys can you work on two relic weapons at the same time like I completed a book for my dragoon atma, can I switch to my whm atma or will it reset all my dragoon process?
You can
you just need to stagger certain steps
If you're collecting soil you're better off trading poetics in for tradeables to buy the grade 3 variants
my point is spreading misinformation is bad so you shouldn't have a summoner guide that claims to be for endwalker yet still talks about bio and misama
Some steps only count progress on whichever weapon you have equipped
i.e you can't have two relics on the book step for ARR, you need one on the books and then the other on like light or whatever
Go to #rants or #discord-feedback
use your retainers to gather extra soil, you can also spend extra poetics
2k poetics is 13 grade 3 soil
not along ago I got in an argument with a "content creator" in here trying to preach their crafting guide that linked to an RMT site
can't always trust everyone on the internet
Yup
Do I have to manually select one by one or are there premade lists specifically for what I want to do? Or yet is there a level-based recipe one?
I think one by one, that's how I'd do it anyway
Trying to teach a friend how to do collectibles. They are level 51. They just turned in Inscrutable Tastes.
What's a 100% uptime level 50 (or 51) node that I can go to to demonstrate basic collectible gathering?
I mean you could just explain this to them

i was a manion that looked cute it was like a thin squirl with white fur with green tips any idea what it was
the giy mounted just as i noticed them so i couldn't click on it to check the name
Was it the squirrel with a Christmas hat?
I did
We went to the node and I explained it
and she did a demonstration
but unfortunately her gear wasn't good enough
so she kept failing to collect
is auto-demolition still paused
Yes
Auto demo has been extended indefinitely due to current World events
why my axe disappear when I cast Orogeny?
Punch better when axe gone
The axe is like your weighted belt
not sure i didn't get a great look at it
but i don't think so
what would be the best crafter class to go through diadem stuff for so i can level up my weaver?:O
What would be the best crafter class to level up this specific crafter class...?
Skybuilder recipes are pretty self contained
They only have raw materials from the diadem and a crafting material made by that class, generally
Most diadem recipes still use both gatherers
I know the grade 4 level 80 weaver craft is all btn tho
hi, its been like this for 2 days already, any ideas? I just unlocked it 2 days ago
It says right there
You didn’t finish the ones from a previous day
You got old beast tribe quests active
You have a beast tribe quest from a previous day still in your quest log
In your journal
does it matter if its from any other tribe?
Yes
ANY from a previous day
that doesnt make fking sense and its confusing for a new player o.o
but thanks i get it now !
They don’t want you to stockpile dailies and do them all at once
The real question is why wouldn’t you get them done immediately
The allowance is for all tribes
Me and my friend want to play the trial but does one of us need to buy a sub to invite the other one to a party of do we both need a sub to join a party
i guess but noob friendly it sucks

So for some reason, when i logged on this evening i got a message saying that my service account is suspended
Im not sure why considering I have not done anyhting RMT or illegal in game and ive been trying to figure out the issue
Does anyone know how I can fix or adress this in anyway?
Did you buy the game on steam or non-steam?
Non steam
Then I recommend logging into the mogstation and make a support ticket
when trying to log on on the ff14 launcher, it just says "You could not log inbecause the serviceaccount in question is not registered"
and then when i tried to get on the mog station it just says "this service account is currently suspended"
The SQUARE ENIX Support Center is a centralized support site that provides product information and solutions to the frequently asked questions and issues with our products and services.
Anyone know where the chapel is that people usually do weddings?
East shroud north of the aetheryte
top of the map
Giant building on the map
oh is there one there?
That’s where it is, yeah
Well I submitted a ticket
now what do I do for the rest of the day and im not sure how fast they evne respond
How much is the golden namzu mount again?
50m
Is it possible for someone to run off with your mog station outdoor furnishing?
Not worth it IMO, doesn’t have special music
Golden Ronka is better as it has an orchestra version of the big boss fate music
For example if I give people in my FC permission to move and place outdoor furnishings, can they move the ones I bought into their inventory? And run away with it?
If they have permission yeah
If they have permissions to remove furniture, yes
Gotta choose people wisely
So someone did take my stuff ..
Or just like not let people touch your stuff
Nope not in there.
So I did my leveling roulette & trial roulette this morning an hour before reset, but it still shows them as 'reward already received'. is there a cutoff where doing it before reset you're too close?
The reset is the cutoff
I'm at level 48 and need to get to 49 to continue the MSQ. Need a couple hundred thousand XP. Any suggestions?
MSQ roulette?
!faq altlvlguide
Just do a dungeon or something
Leveling roulette if you haven’t done that
ahh cool thanks, I'll do the leveling roulette then stone vigil over and over I guess lol
this guide is good

Once I've unlocked all the stuff in the Boutique and the Fashion Leader title, is there any point to getting more than 80 points in Fashion Report?
no
Extra MGP
Then yeah no.
well I just got an update form SE
"We apologize for any inconvenience so far. It appears the account may have been subject to real money trading (RMT) ad spam. This can occur when accounts have clicked on suspicious links (Twitch, Youtube, in-game), and have entered in their account details on sites made to look like official Final Fantasy XIV websites.
Guys, I cant find master recipes IX, any idea why? I'm 90 on all crafters.
I dont remember clicking any links at all that took me to rmt sites so im under the impression a scammer got ahold of my account
great what am i supposed to do now
I cant even click on the link due to mainetnance
have you unlocked scrips in radz
how long is maintenace today
Yeah iirc you need to unlock the splendors vendor in Radz to be able to buy the level 90 master books
before I can actually attempt to reset my password
because I cant proceed with the attempt of account retriveal unless I can do it
No maintenance today that I'm aware of. They post notices of any kind, even account management maintenance, on the Lodestone.
how do i chack chocobo traits
Anyone knows how fast I can finish Endwalker, skipping every convo and such
For anyone who completed their ShB relic, how long did it take you to complete the step where you have to gather 180 items?
about two days, but i farmed it when it was new
10 hours
I never realised there is a quest for them, thank you, went to radz and took 2 seconds
companion menu
how do i get to that n the saddlebags
Ty
It’s not in the saddlebag
no i just wanna know how to get to that too
It’s the left most red dot for companion
Crtl shift I for saddlebag
thank you
I think this is for relic-weapons right? I don't care about relic weapons right now or in the foreseeable future. Can I dump this?

Is there a way to check which worlds in a DC are most popular/crowded?
Not really
True
I wanted to use a home world with most crowd tho so I didn’t have to worry about visiting other ones but I guess it doesn’t matter in itself anyway

Duties are cross-world anyways
The only potentially important aspect would be FC membership, since those are world-specific. But even that's a fairly even spread.
and there's millions of FCS literally everywhere
how do i obtain a puk egg?
It's a random drop from killing these guys in the southwest corner of Outer La Noscea
is there a hairstyle for ||Hythlodeus'|| hair?
nope
what can I actually interject/head graze i have not seen it work once lol
'Interject has no effect' 🤬
!faq interject
ahh tyty
how did people do ARR beast tribe transporting quests back in the day? with all the roaming aggro mobs around, was it basically a group quest with somebody clearing the way?
i imagine the "nodes" reset your HP?
tbh idk tho
They suffered.
You would just give mobs a wide berth and abuse their lines of sight
so yeah it sucked.
fun
Learning how to dodge mob aggro is a valuable MMO life skill.
would they make change to castrum and prae reward when it requires less participant and shorter?
yes
They said that was the plan.
what about HW quest dungeon, like it is half the duration and still give 200 peotics?
Likely not.
!faq enmity
r/ffxiv: A community for fans of the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, which includes a free trial that includes the entirety of "A …
yes
red = attacking you
Cool I guess that means I'm doing my job right
not on the target list
You can tell your enmity status by glancing at the party window as well. If you have aggro, you will see an A by your class symbol.
Note: that's only for current target
If you do not have aggro but are first on your party's aggro table list, that number will be a 1.
Correct.
just try to make thing red always
Technically not wrong
unironically sometimes it's good to make dungeon mobs target you as a healer instead of tank while pulling
yeah, just bring it to your tank
you're going to be using aoe heals anyway when you start dpsing
so that's basically free mitigation
toxikons
if you are a BLM, just use aether manipulation to tank usually works
oyo
if I download the ffxiv client on a different pc
do I still have to put in a activation key
if I activated the game on another pc
so on a different pc
but you should upload your settings to the cloud on the old computer
it will just let me log in
thta's fine with me
so your ui and everything will be default
I play on default anyway
Even on trial you can also back up UI info, which is good to know
just making sure
gonna build a pc in a couple month and I want to make sure I dn't need anythingelse
if you have a usb storage or something you can just copy the game files and paste them into your new pc so you dont have to download everything again
I logged into my own account and my year old character from Aether that I abandoned the first time I played the game was still there
what is the downside to having repeat classes/roles in a party? is it LB generation and something else?
lb generation, party bonus
less stats
type /partycmd , look down
I'm considering picking up a job of each type but idk which
What's a good entry level caster/healer?
And for healer, WHM.
also braindead
SCH and RDM
These abbreviations are getting on my noives
Scholar and Red Mage
Is SMN Summoner?
yes
Yeye
RDM is also a good alternative to SMN, as Vielen said. Also pretty easy to get into
But I'm more enthusiastic about Dragoon
DRG gang DRG gang
because polearms are chad weapons
Damn right
smn is a phys ranged at this point
what
Shouldn't you be doing DPS too anyway?
as healer yes
As anyone yes
as a healer? yeah, as long as noone died, keep dps-ing
Damage good
with exception of WHM, whatever happen you just start with holy for every packs of mob
Is there Job specific equipment later in the game?
yeah, every artifact armors are
every job doh/dol/dow/dom have them
It usually have the unique characteristic attached to the job
level 50/60/70/80/90, all have job specific gear for all jobs
Fastest way to farm poetics outside of roulette
eureka/bozja
Not if they're dead af 
Party finder - carrying new people through unsynced coils

Whoopsie, @modest igloo ty, someone was telling me CM was the fastest and couldnt fathom what they meant

I expect zero decent Roeg fits but thanks
It ain't easy being green
Male Roe or Femroe?
Male
Aight, an area outside my expertise then lmao
I like playing big dudes what can I say
I might have played a Femroe but they're just kinda normal tall ladies
Which I can dig don't get me wrong
Just underwhelming
Honestly, even as a femroe player I personally do wish they were like...wider
They do just be tall jacked women
You aint seen a femroe with max muscle then
Honestly that's why I played a Roeg in the first place
Everyone in this game is too damn pretty
That is the one negative about the game. It kinda hurts character diversity.
Yeah a lot of the races look too samey
Ironically 2 of the most unique races, Roe and Hroth. also have the lowest playrate. Not that I blame anyone, Roe could use a texture update honestly
Is there any land that is avail for a new player to get a house? Any house will do, thank you.
Which wards are most empty and how to check the wards? Where are said wards?
Literally just go to a housing zone
You should know considering you're interested in a house
But one sec
you need to unlock each of them
Sorry I buy msq skip
There'll be one housing district linked to each starting city-state
There are 4 districts for housing I do see it people say goblet is most free
shouldn't be
^ , you just take whatever's available
they're all purchased
Don't buy goblet lol
Ok so no way to get house right..?
U less you like it
Fuck if we know
We're not at the zones to check if there's free plots
Go check if you want one, we ain't gonna work for ya
Ok I will try and find
if it's available, compete with others
You have to check the wards manually in the housing zones
So, if you are active around 6.1 drop you could try sniping a house. A lot of plots will open due to the fact that a new housing district is releasing
Ok will try
for a small house, you'll need at least 4m
Is it true house open every hour on dot to purchase?
No lol
it's random in a timespan of 18 hours
24
have they mentioned if you'll only be able to bet on one house?
Well I only want one house idk the guides are all over the place hard to know which is righ
Which means you can still FC bot it
i don't know of that
you can get an apartment for now
I have no idea however if even the apartment is full in Crystal
Honestly that applies to reallife with how much apartments cost I swear
Give me a box and a bar of soap and we vibing

About when can an expansions extremes be soloed unsych? The end tomestone gear of the next? I'm trying to clear some of these old quests from the log.
note that starting about from stormblood, pretty much all EX are impossible to do solo due to mechanics that will just kill you if you're solo regardless of your gear
Susano is basically the only one that can't be solo'd no matter what
Lakshmi is the only one that takes no effort, the rest you need to gather some echo, or wait for higher ilvl
but they're doable

hey guys, me and my friend are quite new to the game and thus we never really got to experience any extreme or savage raids and I was wondering how I should go about trying to find a static or generally some people to play content that isn't currently the meta with
can PF it
thank you!
Anyone having the steam version and knowing how to uninstall FFXIV?
When i uninstall with steam, it just removes the launcher, but not the entire game
what? weird
delete the files
I'm afraid of doing this, I've already done this once with another game and then I couldn't play but I couldn't uninstall neither
Do you know what exact files i need to remove?
the ones under the FF14 name?
for steam afaik it's under steamapps
inside the steam folder
also, you could try window's add/remove program
same, only the launcher
then? I don't find anything
common folder

Is wintrading allowed in verminion?
i dont think even the devs remember verminion exists
How come in goblet zalera server all plots of land are full in all 24wards? If all are full then how to get new plot of land?
by hoping someone gives up their plot for whatever reason
Is it true u can see whether all land is sold using aetheryete or do u have to travel there manually?
housing operating on limited space is one of the reasons why people jokingly refer to it as endgame content
no idea tbh
How do I tell if a plot is available? What does s m l mean?
that's the size of the plot
if its for sale, the price will be listed i believe
yeah
Oh ok…. Do u know when a new plot of land is coming up?
Because it seems fixed to me
You never know when someone's gonna lose a plot, no
And after they do there is a hidden timer until it becomes available for sale again
They skew the release time of the plot right?
to ensure "fairness" (it is not fair)
so you'll have a general idea that it might be free at some point in the next 20 hours or whatever
So have to manually check every 4 housing area and go through each ward and plot to check if there is empty land? This is so much tedious work?!
so everyone has a fair chance
well part of the plots are changing to a lottery system
some will still use the current one
you can just click through the menu, its not that hard
also from what we know the lottery system may be exploitable by entering the pool with multiple characters
but we'll see
There are 24 wards and 1-30 31-60 for each housing district. 2424 clicks?
most of the autoclickers get banned, right?
not really
and? i dont see your point
And it’s tedious, this is point hope u see it
it's hard to prove someone is using an autoclicker while camping at the plot
so...
¯_(ツ)_/¯
do you realistically think they can list thousands of plots on the screen at once?
housing should be this awful and tedious
just instance it
who cares about these shitty neighborhoods
Idk Since I’m just consumer, all I know is I tell honest feeling, and that feeling is tedium
the system is indeed a bit annoying
Imagine if instead of going through all that you just bought it
nothing you can do about it
considering each location has 1440 plots, i fail to see how tehy can all be put on screen at once, hence, a tabbed system is needed
The devs want actual neighbourhoods people can walk around in, now if you like that or not is up to you
but the result is limited space
Not possible with the neighborhood system
Yes I appreciate your answer, helped clarify issue for me. I am thankful, but I just say honest feeling it’s tedium but idk how to improve it I am just consumer
Just get an apartment
How to get apartment?
yea apartments are the answer, you just buy one, they are instanced
Go to the big apartment building in each ward
Oh wow I can?
there is a building in each location, just walk in
yeah
500k for one iirc
Ok that sounds great
I will research what quest I need to do to buy apartment
i think the only downside, is you can't grow plants in apartments, so no gardening
and no "outside" furnishings allowed
the cheaper option would be a room in an FC house btw, those are just 300k
Ok I am happy with just apartment I mean life is already difficult
but that ofc requires joining an FC with a house
If u just wanna do interior design it's enough
the island sanctuary thing coming, will probably be the answer for ppl who want the outside capabilities of a house, like gardening and outside furniture, etc, but can't get hold of a proper house as they are limited
I mean decorating apartment itself is already exhausting
took me hours to get mine done when I started before I got a house on my own
Ah yes that is very good looking forward
i wanna garden, but i dont wanna buy a house 😛
also, houses get automatically relinquished if ur offline for 45 days 😦
rather not
I want a house but dont want to garden
in Crystal especially, you are living in a hell of competition lol
It's arguably the most populated DC + the RP center
We still don't know what sanctuary even is
RP restaurant/cafe/bar usually requires a house more or less
yea i know, speculation, but it makes sense to me for it to cater towards some of the stuff people want in housing, but be instanced and not have the fear of losing it if you stop playing for a while
Just wanted to mention considering the channel we're in
housing will continue to be an issue if they dont address it
Don't want ppl to get hyped for something that might not happen
is there anyway I can recruit ppl for dragonskin/aquapolis as free trial?
those 2 usually you could solo
I tried to solo aquapolis as BLU, couldn't even pass first stage :( , even dragonskin was pretty hard T_T
free trial players can't create parties, so you'll have to get someone else to help you
any idea where to ask for help for treasure map, or do people not do it anymore since it's old content
maps is always worthed to do in a party
older map however usually more expensive in MB cause you have to actually go gather
wherever is populated in ur server i guess, Limsa maybe, there maybe some discords or Linkshells for your datacenter that do this as well
oke thank youu

yeah soloing treasure dungeons isn’t very feasible since you get synced
Once you have stuff like basic instinct and the lvl 70 spells it’s more doable
can't get lvl 70 spells in free trial :(
Should I be level 20 to start the grand company quest, or should the main quest be at level 20?
always MSQ
they are one and the same for the GC quest, its part of the MSQ
and you can't hand in quests if you are lower than the quest level
I'm almost 21 and my MSQ is at level 15
then continue, it would take like 1h due to 3 dungeons
Oh I see. Does it apply on chocobo mounts as well?
you need to do the GC to get the chocobo mount
right after you join GC, the next MSQ reward 300 seals, more than enough to buy the mount
so yes, just continue teh MSQ, you can't skip ahead to get the mount because your level is higher, its locked behind MSQ
also, getting a mount elsewhere, wont let you use it until you get teh chocobo first, as that unlocks mounting in general
I see. Thank you. MSQ it is 🏇
basic rule of thumb, most everything is locked behind MSQ in some way
even stuff like class quests, you can't for example, do the level 30 job quests, until you get past a certain MSQ 20 quest i believe
Thank you
What's the best class to assign to a retainer?
for combat classes, whatever works for you, suggest one of your mains, so you can give them your leftover gear as you level up
all combat class retainers are the same in capability
oh
now if you want resources, its up to you which gatherer you want
like they're all literally the same?
yeah
uh, dunno about mounts from ventures
there are minions you can get
they all have different things they can get
combat are all the same
but each gatherer have different things
look at Explorations
Field, Highland, etc
the last column shows minions you can get from each
Thanks!

so i have 1 of my retainers that i can't access for some reason. i don't know if this is one i hired through the additional retainers page on the mogstation or if i got it from the companion app. where do i go to check this exactly on the mogstation site?
Is there any way to farm lots of Gil?
sell stuff on the Market board, raid gear at the new tier is probably the best way, selling materia around that time to is valid. housing items can give a decent amount if you dont have to many competitors. There was a thing in ShB where you could craft coffe cookies and hand them in for a decent amount of gil with the right amount of cookies but not sure how viable that is now
Oh, Im still kinda new to the game lmao
then i would suggest just play through the game and DONT BUY of the market board. that will drain your wallet dry fast
lmao, exactly why I wanna grind lotsa money
Its just the armors, I wanna look good
I hate looking at my char wearing bunch of different armors 
know that feeling. best way is either to start leveling up your crafting jobs so you can make them yourself. I lost so much money on buying gear for glamour purposes
!faq glamour
'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'
Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.
'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'
Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.
Use this to look more cohesive
i would work on getting all to level 20 or so, most of them work in tandem with each other as you will need some metal work here and some weaving there when making some stuff. And i think at level 20 is where you can take part in a thing that takes place after Heavensward that will give you a bunch of EXP for crafting and other goodies
np
@modern glen at level 50 you'll get your first set of job specific gear. You saw it during the opening cinematic. It'll be a solid full set glam while you play through the story
anyone know roughly the timer is on the bunny fate in hydatos between pops?
https://i.imgur.com/Mhg1RDl.png does the lady's events only offer these five?
I heard you can get Tataru or Alphinaud or something 🤔
Well tataru is canonically an omni rafter so whos the last one?
Gobbert I guess?
So you're telling me you haven't checked yet

Captain is the current cap
How come no guide to reach more gc rank?
And we haven't had any further updates since 4.55
Does the game still have a free trial?
Yes
Yes
Ok thx
I think I already got that for my BLM
But Im maining healer now
AST specifically
Well that full set is at 60
O
There are other glamour sets on the market board and the like or you can figure out one for yourself
Eorzea collection is also a good source of inspiration
But honestly job set glams would be my recommendation til you catch up to the story as glamour quickly becomes an expensive hobby
Hello, if I block someone will they still show up for me in the world?
Hey I'm on the oceanic server and I'm meant to get 1mil gil for hitting level 30 on a class, I've leveled 2 classes to 30 but haven't gotten it yet. My friend has gotten it though
any idea why?
so, these are the solo instances right? is this some leftover for when you could join those or something or is it something else
Yeah it could use some work, thanks.
is someone able to explain this? im up to the start of endwalker myself, but ||why do the warriors of darkness look the same as the people in the trailers, and why is it that ardbert is basically in all of the trailers?||
they explain that in 3.2 msq and 3.4
||They look the same to emphasize how similar you as the WoL are to them. They are not the characters from the trailers, the "Ardbert" in the trailer is a representation of you, the WoL||
the community usually calls the trailer guy Derplander
though iirc the devs call him Meteor
Meteor Survivor iirc

Also known as Hiroshi yeah 
Are openers only applied to boss fights? Like I don’t know if theyre used in dungeons
the optimal openers are usually for boss fights, yeah
since dungeons usually start with a situation where you want to aoe anyway
but even then it's best to treat dungeons as one long, protracted encounter, don't safe your big cooldowns for the boss fights
I see ty
There's a virtual mouse mode you can use to drag and shrink it by the corner like you would a window on PC, it's l1+r3 I believe
L2 r2 for clicks
Bottom right?
Yeah I did it
Tyyy
I was struggling to navigate
Oh and I have another question
I finished a quest and it says I need to be level 4 but I'm already level 4
I have a feeling it's the "item level 5" one
It's a hard nut to crack
Idk I'm so confused 😭 I started an hour ago and I spended 30 minutes fixing my hud
well, what's the quest name
Then I'll finish the kill 6 squirrels

Question about rescue/raise macro: Mine is like this but the problem is after i cast it, i tab-target back to the enemy, so the macro will say "Rescue: Boss Name"
/p Rescue-ing <t>
/wait 1
/ac "Rescue" <t>
/micon "Rescue"
Is there a way to circumvent this? Or just switch the /ac and /p lines and just take the 1sec delay?
hello does someone know why the zone music does not loop ? id like to listen to it instead of simple nature sounds
ARR zones dont loop much, thats kinda how it was made
FFXI some zones just didnt have music so when they were developing ARR they went with a more sparsed-out idea instead
sucks tho, a lot of the ARR zones have really good themes
How can I see the life % write in the chat? Need x PoTD 180
such a shame, thx for the info
Is the "Quartz Coupling" fate bugged or something? It's not spawning for me and I've been here for an hour and still nothing
Just RNG I suppose
alrighty, ty
and clear some fates in the zone, there is a cap of active fates
that's what I've been doing lol
you could try world travel to search for any world with that specific fate
maybe
I just started like lvl 15 , when does the game put u with co-op or talking to other ppl
dungeon is definitely some kind of co-op and if you only do msq to reach lvl 15 then you gonna going through 3 dungeons in a row, starting as MSQ lvl 15
TY SO MUCH, found a world that had it 😮
Appreciate it
i am leveling a white mage, and i reach lvl 52, other then the daily stuff how can i level my white mage?
highest available dungeon that's not 50/60/70/80
so 50/60/70/80 gives exp only once a day?
all the roulettes only give you the bonus once a day
but those level cap dungeons are on their own just shit xp
they don't exist for leveling
like you can do the roulette for them one a day and then back to levelling dungeon
even the roulette for level cap stuff is not particularly great for xp
it's okay I guess

6.1 date?
live letter on April 1 so maybe 2 weeks after that, it just not announced yet
mid april
should be the 12th given the 2nd LL is April 1st
could a unsync group of 3 or 4 players clear stormblood trials for mounts?
would jobs matter?
did it go smoothly?
We got it done that’s all that matters
lol I guess

question can i ask about some mechanics asphodelos 3 savage mechanics?
would be more fit for #endgame-lounge
ah i see thanks
no
so the levels you get in POTD are not added to your actual lvls? Why ppl say its good to level up then?
u get xp after u complete a batch of 10 levels
You beat a set of floors, you get real exp
Rinse repeat
ohh okayy lol makes sense
do i get the cracked clusters even if i dont play the adventurer in need?
No
no
and are AR and leveling roulette the only ways to get them?
Fastest way to get some is to kill rank A-S hunt bosses from ShB/EW
No, they randomly drop from hunts
what's the adventurer in need for your regions?
is it almost always tank/healer for you as well?
it always will be
mostly tank for me
but i play at funky times, so sometimes i'll see DPS for Alliance or normal raids
very raerly ill see DPS for trials, but usually they only show for alli
you cant, ilvl requirement is 42
job quests give ilvl 90 gear at lvl 50 so you can grab some of that
Is there a marketboard in the upper limsa decks?
no
hrmmm
market area is in the lower deck
upper decks of limsa
ohhhhhh
but you wont be able to see that person, since the innroom is a personal instance
Yeah
i was referring to time
What's the name of the Sit on a cushion emote
Should just be /sit
The cushion itself is a minion
So you just summon it and then do /sit while on top of it
Are these all MSQ mounts?
No
Horses look like from trials
Those horses on the right are from the 50 Extreme Trials
Yeah
But the first 5 and the last one are MSQ mounts
First horse looks like the one you get from the Conjurer questline
The Unicorn
kk
Is it possible to get 140 cent seals in a day if I've done my weekly? I guess I'd have to do some A ranks, right? If so, how do I find them; do I just need to sweep every single map they spawn on and count that there will be there?
You could use something like Faloop to help you join hunt trains and track hunt spawns
It's both a website and a discord server
you can get 200 centurio seals by doing both the HW and SB weekly bills
why do my fish keep getting away?
Sadly I dont have SB bills unlocked yet!
Great Ill check it out
What fish are you trying to catch?
navigators daggers
unless you're super hard pressed to get the 140 right now, i would just press on with msq since sb hunt unlock is relatively early on
If its a big fish that's rng
If your timing sucks they get away
If you don't have enough gathering they also get away
Could be gear related, because navigators daggers isn't a big fish from what I remember
Isn't that an arr quest fish
Hmm... could be
That kinda narrows it down to just timing
Unless that's the Navigator's Brand
!item navigators dagger
rats tail
i managed to get them
Hmm so that's right :S
usually if fish are getting away, its a gathering stat issue
Oh ok!
There’s only like 6 msq mounts total
Yeah most likely just gathering stat
when is 6.1 supposed to drop around?
April/May ish
mid april
ok nice
kk
given we have the 2nd PLL on april 1, the 12th is most likely date
2nd pll?
producer live letter
Live Letter part 2
I'm pretty sure the gathering requirements for navigators daggers are in the single digits
We get 2 live letters for each major patch
Yes, but that doesn't necessarily mean they were catching fish that were daggers
and the ones they lost have higher gathering requirements
fishing pools have several variety of fish with various stat requirements
Good point
alright
Is Labyrinthos the first zone to just outright ground you when you try to fly in a certain place?
Can an experienced player message me? I have a private question I want to ask.
I believe so
There's plenty of experienced players here, just ask
The question I have I don't want to ask in public
Are there any monk abilities I shouldn’t slot/are a dps loss? I heard sometimes a job has the kind of ability you don’t want to use ever
Second wind is arguably a dps loss
Should still use it
You can probably ditch your stun but it has its uses in the overworld
There are no “you’ll never use this ever” skills on monk
there's no dps loss with second wind, what?
Cuz you can only single weave on monk
I'm getting into very very nitpick semantics
Don't take it seriously
ಠ_ಠ
It's like a dps loss in a drk opener cuz you need a cooldown
just dm me if it makes you comfortable
When do GC Training Regimens (daily training sessions) reset? I can't find an answer online so just asking here
I’m asking because I wanted to see if I could skip some abilities slot wise since I’m readjusting my hotbar to make monk feel as comfortable as possible to play. Like I’m debating on if I want my aoe rotation on the right side (button) crossbar since idk if pushing a trigger twice or clicking on the dpad is more bleh
Using a controller btw
if it's that nitpicky maybe it's unnecessary to mention 
Put your aoe shit on crosshotbar 2
And swap as necessary
same time as the grand company provisioning and supply missions, which you can check in the timers menu (ctrl+u default key) @leaden ginkgo
Should leave you plenty of space
the only particularly useless ability in the case of monk would be anatman, honestly
Still has its uses iirc
Only actually useless ability in recent memory is fluid aura and that's gone
you shouldnt need to forfeit any actions on controller
if you are then youre doing something wrong
I put aoe in crosshotbar 2,single target on 1,copy most of the other stuff and put shared stuff and cooldowns on double triggers/double taps
pc hotbars have less slots than controller
also i separate my single target and aoe rotations on controller
Only times I need aoe and single target in rapid succession are uwu and OG shiva, can't think of anything else off the top of my head
how can i lvl my jobs to 90 other than dungeons or fates?
to 90? you cant
!faq altjobleveling
Bozja and beast tribes technically
But they're both shit compared to dungeons and fates
it would be nigh impossible and much more of a waste of time to ignore dungeons and fates
i guess bozja is fates so
can u not double weave trick attack?
If you want to be nit picky there's also deep dungeons but those also suck
You can @pure copper
you could but you dont really
i leveled my PLD to 85 with just side quests lol
Well it'll depend on your ping but no reason why you can't
I assume then optimal leveling is fate spam until you’re queue is ready for a dungeon then repeat?
oh wait im dumb i forgot mudras are 1.5s recast not 2.5
Well first off side quests are non repeatable and secondly their exp is shit
hunting log and fates until 15
🤨 if you're a tank you should be doing dungeons, you get such quick queues....
You don't really use trick right after a mudra cast
yea potd is only for dps really
then youll level extremely slowly
this is a game that in part revolves around dungeons so uh
or just run them with trusts or something
dungeons are core to leveling to some degree

sorry if this discussion goes elsewhere but I wanted to ask if anyone knew of a setting or mod that would highlight certain jobs/enemies?
like if there's a way to put some kind of outline around the party tank or dungeon enemies? i struggle a lot with tracking moving objects sometimes and while I can muddle through, it'd be so much nicer if I could follow a colored aura or something
you could just put a marker on the tank
friends and I gonna try that later today but from what they described, I don't know if it'll be enough? again we're gonna try it but I figured I'd ask around in case the 'best option' existed
what icon is the mail on the map?
a letter icon
thx
have you actually seen the in game markers? they are huge
but if the real issue is targeting, you should be able targeting your party members with f1-f4 buttons anyway
i'll have to see it in action because the size alone may not mean that they're helpful. with my eyesight, big thing doesn't necessarily mean more visible, especially if its moving around and being overlapped by other stuff. i'm not even sure what to google to find a screenshot of them so if you have some keywords or even a screenshot handy, I'd be grateful
the issue isn't targeting; i play controller and so that's usually fine. the main things are that 1) it's just uncomfortable and 2) i can't see when the tank starts moving again once we clear the current pulled enemies and looking at the minimap for that is unintuitive.
again like, we're trying some things out (gonna be turning off/down the battle effects as much as possible, that helped a bit already) and maybe that and the marker will be enough but I like having options esp since i'm not the usual low-vision player
markers are same as nameplates, fixed size no matter how close or far
try these 2, also shorten the name of party member and alliance raid member
the first one will reduce the amount of battle effect you see
the second will not show the first name
of alliance member and party member, also their title
you can even make them both only shows initial
oh thank you guys!! yeah i'm def gonna have to try that out to see if the marker helps; size is nice and overlapping might be mitigated if I change the party name color to something really different
reducing visual noise does help though so
thank you i'll plop those settings on and take a run through a dungeon to see the changes. (honestly grateful for the screenshots bc i managed to access the battle effects once but could not for the life of me get back to them)
the markers are huge and obvious
if you can't see that moving then idk what to tell you
some people even complain about using them too much on players because of their size
they are so big and so distracting that some players actually don't want to use them for certain mechanics
because they interfere with the boss tell
well tbf it's distracting for me yeah.. I don't like when I'm getting marked personally
the only waymark I can tolerate is probably waymark.. I always think sign isn't necessary at all
and get your tank to wear my glam or something
it's fair to not like them, just speaks to how prominent they are was my point
what are some easy ways for new players to farm the tokens for the moogle event?
How new are we talking?
you can farm as early as level 30/unlocking frontlines roulette
just started about a month ago
Because the lower your level/MSQ progression, the fewer options you have, if you have any at all.
yeah my eyesight's weird and shitty so
this is an accessibility thing. i have similar issues with stuff like action movies if the choreography isn't good enough
but noted! if it bothers other players then i'll probably try to only use it with folks I already know and keep an eye out for clientside alternatives for if I run with strangers
and also ask the tank to wear bright colors lol i was actually thinking on that but it seemed like a weird ask
my main is lvl 55
Aurum Vale spam with BLU mages is going to be your best option then
you can be the tank in a blu mage party
Even if you aren't a BLU, you can still do it.
and/or just do MSQ roulette every day for an easy source
do msq roulette once a day yeah
Rival Wings PvP is also a decent source of mog tomes
people can't really change glams in the middle of dungeons, you'd have to be playing with a tank you know if you want them to be flashy
Asking a tank in a random pug isn't going to help in the slightest. For one thing, they might not have a glamour with bright colors, and for another, there are almost guaranteed to be other people with flashy glams.
but also there really isn't a reason to need to track the tank's position 100% of the time
as long as you are within like 5 miles of them so you can heal them you're fine
Have you tried focus targeting the tank? It paints an arrow above them that only you can see.
the tank is gonna be in the middle of the death ball
Yeah, even as a healer, you don't really need to track the tank (or any other player in your party)
healing range is really generous
oh i think i misspoke
i definitely don't expect randos to change for me!
I personally don't really pay attention to where anyone in my party is when I'm healing, outside of just general positioning so I can be dead center (or close to it) for AoE healing purposes.
yea lmao idgaf where people are
if they aren't in my bubble they aren't getting healed
I'm tracking HP levels on the party list, not on their avatars.
i'll be honest, i'm still fairly new and had to google what that was but I'll def give it a shot (i know someone else mentioned that too so thank you to them as well for the suggestion

And I use the party list to target people for healing as well.
press down dpad twice when you are in dungeon
square -> focus target
and only you will see this marker
it's some kind of big arrow on top of the player
Controller player?
If you don't mess with the default player order, tanks will always be 2nd on the player list in dungeons (or 2nd and 3rd in 8 man parties)
got it! thank you!
yeah i'll give that a shot
i'm still adjusting other things like the HUD to work better for me but anything else I can do to make it easier
So just press down on the dpad twice to target the tank
