if you're going to the side, you're either
A) want to look to that side
B) will move your camera anyways
all endgame arenas are a circle or a square anyways so it's whatever
well i guess you could see it that way
but sometimes when you are looking at the view you are basically fighting with the auto tracking
it's just a very minor thing and you're like the first person to actually voice their complaint about it
(i hate it too, hence plugin, but it doesn't bother me that much)
š¤·āāļø you don't move much anyways
and if you are, you move the camera yourself
lmao, it must be annoying otherwise why would ppl bother making a plugin lmao
š¤·āāļø
it's just extremely minor
also like
people make plugins cause they can 
i assumed most people on mouse an keyboard just moved using the mouse buttons
so camera wouldnt really be an issue
sleeper greatest feature of simpletweaks
i used to dislike it on controller but i got used to it so eh
now if only the game would let me wear glasses with the veil
but that's a topic for another channel
lol i use both cause why not lmao
but controller is more convenient for people who panic heal because you are literally one click away from the tank's health lmao
lol sometimes when i play glare mage and forget to heal it comes in handy lmao
hate to break it to you
you're also 1 click away from tank's health on pc
i just use controller cause im lazy
Also thereās keybinds for targeting people
ye but i find it much faster on the controller for some reason
i dont know why
probably just more used to it
you don't use the mouse to select though do you? like don't keyboard user have like a key for it
cause i mean if you have to drag your mouse all the way isn't it more effort
I always thought mouse and keyboard users use a key like f1 or f2
surely?
they do
there's no need to drag your mouse all the way over to the party list if you 1. keep your party list somewhere convenient and 2. keep your mouse near it to beginw ith
Clickers exist and have done endgame content, it doesnāt matter
lol i just press teh down button on my controller
i don't click in the first place
The difference between mouse/keyboard and controller boils down to your own personal comfort
ye exactly
if some people are more comfortable with controller then ofc they're going to be better with controller
neither is better than the other
(no controller is better) lol jk
nailed it
yeah, that's why you need to use third party tool š¹
that's like the opposite of superior
what macro do you guys use
lmao
doesn't queue like normal skills, so i don't use it
the only macros i have are shirk and shukuchi for ninja
generally don't recommend macroing gcds
sorry taht the game gimped macros on purpose
hello and good bye
!faq macrogcd
Macroing GCDs adds up to lost casts overtime, significantly harming your potential.
Check this video for a striking dummy comparison:
https://youtu.be/VgpUCgExvbA
cos of this
for instance
ogcds are a little more ok, since queueing isn't that big of an issue with them
any eureka players?
i don't use macro for gcd no
but for the most part, there aren't many ogcds that are really worth macroing to begin with
things like aetherial manipulation, shirk etc
are the main ones since they're more QoL type macros
holmgang, urflackern (forgot the english name) -_- war's skill
I see
the party raw intuition
cause i was wondering when i start leveling using reflect
and where i get other logograms
when you enter pyros
boxes, sprites, fates
already
but yeah
once you enter pyros, you can reflect farm
yeah, there's an area where you meet a lot of swirly white elements
you take off your clothes, then use reflect
a lot of the enemies on the way there are prox and sound aggro
so you can rp walk past them
anyone found pagos to be terrible for getting the weapon hehe
Well yeah it does take more effort for me I guess..
is there a way to take the logos action back into the logos action slot
if you replace them
they gone
gotta remake 'em
after you use 'em, same thing
yeeet
Do you have to upgrade your job? I did a SHB dungeon with a THM the other day.
no
unfortunately no
I thought they were trolling, but I remember them not even having BLM unlocked.. was just double checking to see if I was crazy or not.
most people do it cause there is an incentive for gear
but in terms of the system you could just go without upgrading
i mean most people do because if you don't, then you're basically trolling
because you're without a good bulk of your skills
You literally donāt learn anything past lvl 50 as a class, and even then itās a very limited skill set
This THM kept dying, was doing really bad damage, and wouldn't even respond to chat. Their only class was THM, and we was doing final dungeon in SHB.
Kick em, move on
We didn't realize that they didn't have a job stone until like last boss. Lol.
Any FF14 Discord server for trading? I wanna play the MB to make a bit of Gil.
And Wait?
Mmmm... you can make gil from doing marketboard stuff, but you will soon realize that people undercut without even thinking about what they are doing.
what do i do with fundamental logograms
You will think you got a item that makes gil, list it then 2 seconds later someone undercuts you by 50%.
And within 5 min's that item you listed for 20k is now selling for 1500 gil.
yeah
theres only two of this hairstyle that selling
and i have that one
and theyre both selling for 2 mil
and other servers probably have it cheaper so i cant sell it
lol
I think I spent more effort and time "playing the mb" instead of playing normally š¹
I still experience reckless undercutting, and I'm the guy who sells their random desynth stuff for 50% less than the cheapest. Haha.
but yeah, once or twice I see people mistype their price and got a profit, but I'm not sitting in front of mb wasting my time
I go to sell my daily Gliderskin Map, there is a bunch listed at 35k. I list mine for 20k. Then for the rest of the day they sell for 15k bc of under cutting. Stonks.
Bc, I have enough gil.
I'm not going to babysit my retainers all day long when I spend like 1% of the gil that I get passively everyday.
yeah but no wonder the market goes to shit then
yeah, but the reality is that it will happen no matter what so why go change your price by 1 gil every 5 min's for 8 hours?
I only check my retainer like once every 18 hours, people sitll buy my stuff š¹
The amount of items on the marketboard that cost over 1 million that are not just items people are to lazy to farm for is very small. This game doesn't require you to have a lot of gil. It doesn't get you much.
no idea what server youre on where theres so many bots but youre just driving the market down faster
and at greater amounts
but if you have enough gil then
ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
i just set it and forget it
whats a good stats to feed chocobird with
For those who set it and forget it, just check the sale history for the items you sold. I bet it is up and down like a heart rate monitor screen.
no, because i dont sell items like that
yeah you dont need a ton of gil especially if you just want crafted gear
I came from playing Eve Online for 12 years. I understand when a game has a healthy market, this game cannot. It's not possible.
just encountered sophia with attack that ive never seen before
it looks like 2 white circle and 2 purple circle, how to resolve that?
we got 2 bleed debuff because of that
There are guides ya know
i dont know how you think other games can translate to this one but i can tell you the market is fine
afaik that one stack white and purple
Most people don't feed their chocobo outside of trying to change it's fur color.
white go with purple, usually people so panic that they that run wild when they can stick together and nothing happen
is there a command that shows average actions per minute for the classes?
i believe ive seen a picture like that before in here
there was one for shb, but i don't believe there's an updated on for ew
I think the highest is still NInja
i meant for chocobird racing
its like ninja and then samurai or some shit
the stats from feeding dont carry over to offspring
i got this from a guy last time I asked
sam felt slow in shb idk what they did to it
is it ok to use Bard's barrage on AOE?
appreciated, thanks
Yes.
Just look up a guide man, thatās a niche part of the game. That most people never even bothered with
@dapper oyster
alright thx
it buffs shadowbite so yes
so 3 shadowbites on Aoe, 3 sidewinder for single target, correct?
This doesn't make any sense whatsoever lol.
that's a lotta incorrect info
use barrage on AoE at 4 or more targets
on shadowbite
ah sidewinder is ability, i thought just because it has more damage so it would be better on it
my bad
Sidewinder is a 60s oGCD that is now fully independent of anything, it's just extra damage once a minute.
3 or less targets, barrage RA is stronger
uh..hello I need some help with my account, just want to make sure i didnt screw up... i had to clean wipe my computer right before the free trials were dropped for datacenters, and I signed into the now reavailable launcher, and it said "registration is complete" ...Do I have to start all over now?
It's probably the most noob of questions
Trials were never dropped
did you have an account before or not
yeah
were you on trial
well you couldnt do free trials for a minute for data centers
yes
You couldnāt make a NEW account
were you on steam
Reduced the Kenki cost of Guren and Senei to 25 (from 50), allowing for more Shinten weaves.
I downloaded the launcher from the official website. i dont like using steam often
!faq freetrial
download this launcher and login
official website is the paid launcher
yeah! i used that, it said registration was complete.
after i signed in
Username password stuff
someone said logograms are expensive
Look at your account info on mogstation
but they dont look that expensive
If it doesnāt say free trial on there
mogstation?
!faq mogstation
i havent paid a cent to this game, like at all so there's no way im not on free trial. I was able to play, i made it to lvl 20 before my computer freaked the hell out.
Still look at it
It says "Transfer to full game"
also you should have clicked "log in with existing account" on the launcher
The account status
not "make a new account"
the launcher on official website is for paid player, you can not log in a free trial account with it
I didn't select make new account
can you log in to the trial launcher then?
but? its...im confused.
Youāre just downloading stuff
thats the trial version
Thats the one I downloaded from the official page
it just the button, you are not forced to press it
so you logged in and now youre redownloading the game
you shoudl still have your character
this is a company, they want you to try their game then buy it so that option to spend money need to be very clear and always visible
That free trial is so damn small.
like i could barely see that
makes sense..
And ik I don't have to push "upgrade to final version" or whatever, i was just saying i got the launcher from here (https://freetrial.finalfantasyxiv.com/na/) and apparently thats wrong, or im wrong and it's not the official site.
Heavensward expansion now included in the Free Trial! Play up to level 60 for free without time restrictions.
thats the trial site
because it downloads up to HW and the content of equipment other people have
And seeing how we got a new expansion
!faq download
are the pure white flames the ones you reflect
what?
yes
how do i get a rez/revival spell for BLU?
Serious question, why are 1-2-3 combos split into 3 separate abilities instead of just a single ability that transforms?
Can I macro this thing?
I could really use the extra-accessible buttons
You have more than enough space
Because that's the way the devs want them to be designed.
Also macroing GCDs is a terrible idea
You'll notice that other abilities that function similarly, such as Gunbreaker's Gnashing Fang combo, do function as a single ability that transforms.
It's quite literally because the devs want the base combos designed that way.
They make sure all jobs can fit 3 bars worth of actions
iirc they've actually said so expressly
Have tanks become the instant queue jobs now? Cause every time I open DF, all roulettes have bonus for tank 8/10 times š®
no i think its still healer
Oh okay, I'm on JP if that makes any diff
Also, the Adventurer In Need bonus doesn't necessarily mean that that class's queues will be instant, only that that class is the least represented in the pool at the time the server looked at it.
cause i click the wrong spot
You can still have a 15-minute-plus queue even when your role is in need.
Ah I see š®
All depends on how many people are queueing at that particular moment in time.
yeah afaik it's very often for Tank to be in need in JP for some reason...
cause stupid people still makes mistake even if it's just 1-2-3
including me š¹
it's not as easy as you think
- other things to watch and doing mechs
There's a way to make it into one ability via third party means but that's all I'll say on the matter

Like I main tank, all my tanks are 90 and yeah I noticed a funny shift when EW came out. 8/10 times I check the roulettes tanks are in demand. But in SHB it was Healers š® mayhaps Sage turned the tides?

So I recently got my Arcanist to 30, unlocked SCH but didn't bother unlocking SMN yet. Will they still level at the same time? o.o
yes
Oh okay phew ā¤ļø
im on Labyrinthos, teleported out during quests. now how do I get back in to the lower level
You mean to Labyrinthos in general or just to the lower ring after the first one?
i need to get down there but cant jump nor use lifts
same way you got there the first time, through the cave in the east
the bottom south east?
yes
how do i use training courses on the 2 members that are low level?
All the more reasons to combine them into a single button in my opinion, but alright. I get that the devs want button bloat
Ah, a proper answer. Cheers
does gear condition impact desynth results ?
trainings should work on all members not currently on a mission
it not showing an arrow means that they won't gain a level from the current training, IIRC
no
š
what does the green up arrow indicates then?
that they will gain a level from the training
only members who are greyed out will get nothing, and none are greyed out
The experience gain is incidental, the point of training is to supplement your squadrons' overall stats with additional base stat points.
You can use it for more experience for the people you haven't sent on a Squadron Mission, but
so i assume, those lv 25 dudes are almost at level up? While the lv 19 dudes are at 0% or something
They are farther away than 3k XP from the level breakpoint
you can check their EXP in the roster you know
id show an example, but all mine are maxed out
open the roster from the board, then click on them to see their exp
should appear here:
ty, overwhelmed with the things
Also when you complete missions, it shows the 4 membersā exp
yea, it will also show the green arrow, if the mission exp gained caused them to level up
it really isn't necessary to min-max the exp gains
what i did, send the squad out on a mission every day, then id have the leftovers do some training because why not, extra exp
Thatās what most end up doing yeah
if you really wanna min max, you could use up all daily sessions, then send them out on a mission
Or just like, run a dungeon with the other guys
but it means coming back after an hour, 3 times
so you can do dungeons with squadrons, do their AI behaviour same like Trust AI? ie. DPS will never use AOE
No, squadrons are quite dumb
you need to get to 2nd lieutenant to unlock it
ive not done trusts, but squadrons are dumb AF
its frustrating sometimes
ive been told, Squadrons are basically Beta version of Trusts
so assumed they are worse
I did both trust and squadron and trust is waaaaay better
They have tactics which boost certain combat parameters, but getting those is RNG as heck
yea, certainly feels like those are needed for the level 60 dungeons
Outside of leveling up in the grand company I wouldny recommend them
i gave up trying to run those because it was quite literally impossible to complete
at least with my current squad
tried as tank and healer, for a couple hours, and just gave up
still made stupid people break the combo
so it works in kinda sense

I still find it very odd we can't put combos into 1 button because it already exists in story missions where you play as NPCs
Something something artificial difficulty
Iām sorry they donāt want to make the game braindead, git gud
the basic 1-2-3 combos are the training wheels for the start of many classes
they could probably replace them with a trait later on to merge them, but i dont know about any doing that, so would be something the devs would have to implement as a new feature
My god this discord is like the opposite of the actual ingame community
also, not many, but there are a couple of 1-2-3 combos that can actually split
Lol
so go 1-2-3, or 1-2-4
Ya like drg
ninja
See monk and its mix and match combos
Aight, so let's say we split those and the rest can go on 1 button? :P
I mean, they brilliantly avoided bloat with Sage by putting in the... enhanced ability button. Prognosis/Diagnosis thing.
maybe eventually it will be
the devs do seem to be trying tokeep classes from using more than 3 hotbars
They couldve easily given Sage a separate DoT but they chose not to
whenever they add new stuff they simplify old
Idk.
I think it's kinda possible to do by making a macro that swaps the hot bar to a new one that is the same but 1 changes to the next attack in the combo
Weird conflict of game design imo
SE has noted people's demand for it, but part of the reason is that PVP skills were designed around it when they revamped PVP in 4.0
But I haven't tried making it yet
Too much work :/
there's an easier class
if its gonna happen, its gonna probably be a big rework, likely an expansion level thing
If I make one work ill send you
Framework should be easy to use
where they do a pass on all classes to simplify/remove button bloat
Dancer is just 1-2, weave a bunch of stuff
problem is, they need to consider early game for base classes starting at level 1
they are already kinda boring for the first 30 levels, if they simplify it even more, itll be even worse
Either way, it's not really a topic for this channel anymore. SE has made notice of it and there's not much to do about it besides using 3rd party plug-ins that break whenever a maintenance happens.
id wager a guess, the day we get significant changes to early game skills, is the day we get classes entirely removed from the game, or significant system reworks across the board
I think it would be best just to add a new macro command that let's you make a list of abilities that goes into 1 button and just go down the list
So we can have combos like npcs
But give players the choice of what to put
Not gonna happen
Then you still need to learn the class to know what to put there
I can hope
they are very against macros being used for combat
hence why macros can't queue abilities
so yea, not likely to ever happen
When you decorate your FC room and end up leaving the FC, does the room stay and/or do you get to keep the items you used?
Your furniture gets taken down and you have to reclaim it from the housing NPCs
Ah, okay
you have to demolish your room to leave the FC manually
I'm happy to DM ya and enlighten ya on it. It's silly that the standard combo isn't just one button - it is for PvP but no where else? And as more xpacs come out, the more cluttered our hotbars become, agh but yeah. I can give ya resources on how to fix it
only when being kicked out of an FC does the stuff need to be reclaimed from the housing NPCs
Oh no, it's fine. I don't typically opt to use 3rd party software. I was simply wondering if there was an ingame option for combining 3 skills into a single one
I'm doing fine despite the bloat. A solution for the combo thing would've definitely saved me some wrist strain though, that's all š
Yeah nah, despite many years they still fail to combine combo skills into one button 
Maybe next xpac but doubt
theres a few combos that have some use to not be combined
Brutal shell is super useful for solo stuff, and WAR's got 2 3's t can choose from
but yeah theres quite a few skills that could be 1 button pretty much
hello guys, need help, my isp ruined my ping i usually get 50ms from the elemental server, now i get 200ms without vpn. how do i tracert elemental server? they are requirement for the technical issue, sorry im not kind of techie. i tried tracert 124.150.157.158 but i only got request timed out. thank you

i tried that, but using tracert command and use 124.150.157.158 of the elemental server but i only got request time out.
Maybe try with the other 2? Theyāre in the same location
#952326072542847016 and #technology-discussion are probably more suited for that
How can i start PvP? i get this error in duty finder
Following requirements not met: Class: Jobs of the Disciples of War or Magic
To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.
do I need to do FATEs with the job im trying to get the Zodiac weapon for? or will the Atmas drop regardless and it's just when im handing it in?
thanks @obsidian patio
atmas will drop if you do the fate with the Zenith weapon equipped
doesn't matter which job
matters that it's with the Zenith weapon (and shield for PLD)
I see, and is it normal that there's no quest indicator for this and when I try to talk to the NPC where the exchange happens I don't see the exchange/shop UI yet and he just gives me generic instructions? i just dont wanna waste time if im not up the right point in the questline
yes there are no quest indicators for a lot of relic steps for ARR/HW, especially for repeats
i see tyty
yeah the ARR Relic quests are barebones as they more unlock the methods to upgrade the relic, and not directly upgrade the relic itself
fair, last check, I can see the 'Trials of the Braves' as there but red/locked, thats normal right? just because I need to get up to Animus first
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Relic_Weapons for full guide
im on that page just wanted a second opinion incase i was understaning wrong (: ty for the help
yeah the quest is locked as you don't have an atma weapon equipped, IIRC
is there a way to deselect targets?
Press esc, click off to the side
Whatever it is on console
thank you
where do you guys find your static? except for party finder
how do yall get the text thing whrs thrs the green and red arrow at the side?
is it a macro?
This?
Write whatever word you wanna translate and press tab
Or just press tab and go through a big list to find whatever
it's a tool that auto-translates certain phrases into all 4 UI languages, depending on the UI language chosen by the player reading it
all the combat jobs are functionally identical, and some monster drops (which is what they mainly get) keep decent value like skins
so in terms of combat jobs, make sure it's one that you actively play and plan to level, as they cannot exceed your level for that class.
what about botany?
Botanist and Miner get everything that you can gather as them
fisher is limited in the stuff they can get back, so most of their value comes from the rare minions from the 16-hour fishing ventures
since im playing white mage, can i pick conjurer?
yep
are the items they recieve random?
Only from the 16-hour ventures and quick ventures
the hunting/gathering ventures let you specify the exact item you want
Is the auto-demolish for housing halted still?
ah ty
is the ultima trial going to be part of msq roulette or trials roulette?
msq roulette

No
New Player Asking: I just retired my chocobo and got a new better one. Is there any reason to keep that envelope with the retired chocobo or can I just toss it away?
Breeding
If youāre still in the early pedigree ranks then you can chuck it
But as you rank higher you may want to think about optimising your breeding more
I.e. having multiple offspring and keeping the best
After you get to max pedigree it becomes some dedicated breeding simulator stuff if you want a good bird
Does the Gold Saucer VIP Card affect Challenge Log MGP payouts?
based on description, no, only those from the gold saucer activities, challenge log is a different source
im having a hard time completing level 50 squadron
is it possible without having party synergy?
Yes but only if your squad is overleveled for it
mine is at 50 ish
Itās almost impossible if theyāre only level 50, youād need to have perfect synergies
Youāll need some more levels
Hey, I accepted a Relic Reborn (Tyrus) quest and I can't find the weapon, where is it?
If i right click and search for item it shows 0 at everywhere
you mean the very first quest in the chain?
I think, I'm supposed to meld materia into it
you need to either craft or purchase from MB the backbone of the weapon (kind of a host) then meld 2 materias into it, you dont get the weapon out of thin air
You need to obtain the specified weapon via crafting or marketboard
Make sure itās the exact specified weapon and the exact specified type and grade of materia
ooh, okey thank you
Check the journal
can Atmas only drop for one person doing the FATE? regardless of party etc. I kept tryna do the same FATEs as this person and they kept leaving ):
You do need gold participation, so theyāre prolly just moving to ensure that they always get it
But that point is moot if you party
Ah fair enough
If they have any familiarity with how fates work they shouldnāt be fleeing because of good rating.
Two players working together on a fate, both are all but guaranteed gold rating even if theyāre not in a party together.
They could be being lazy by simply leaving you to finish the fate off, though
Theyāll still get the reward when it dies
If theyāve done enough before you arrived.
Or theyāre just anxious around others

Does it matter in what Market (Ul'Dah Lominsan Grindanian) does my Retainer sell?
Only for tax rates.
which market has the lowest tax rates
Changes regularly. I believe you can get an overview of the relative rates by talking to a Vocate, though.
the more people there are the bigger the chance i not get good loot from the roll right? (like in a dungeon or when doing Maps)
It's more people to roll against but people usually do Owner needs for maps (occasionally free for all)
well I think it depends more on the roll itself
Yea but then how do i get people to help me do maps, exacly...
PF
Party finder
of course, it can be argued that the more people there are, the greater the odds of having your 99 beaten by a 100
I doubt many peeps want to help with no reward incentive, i'll give it a try, thanks
They get gil just by being therr
Everyone gets gil and random mats when chests are opened
And owner needs incentivises bringing their own maps to do more
For more gil
The reward incentive is that their map has the rare shit
and yes, the common rewards like gil and tomestones (if doing as lv90)
what are earth shards used for?
Crafting
just in general?
Yeah all crafts need a shard/crystal/cluster of some kind
Usually fire for cul
Depends on the craft but most crafters have a type they usually use
Like just looking your crafting log
Every recipe says what kind of shards/clusters/crystals are needed
@rain flower its pretty explicit
i know
i was just asking since i dont have much earth shards
so i was wondering if i needed to get more

why cant i catch this fish? im in the right spot and using the right bait
im trying to catch a brass loach at nophica's well w bloodworm bait
i finally caught one holy shit
the bait is the minimum requirement, and a bait can attract several types so you might need to trial and error (especially through mooching)
mooching?
!action Mooch
Using this
do you think adps or rdps is a better measure of personal skill for sam specifically?
Hi guys can anyone help me with getting the mind blast skill for blue mage?
Why can't i change loot Rules on a Map PF?
Cause owner need isn't an actual ingame option
It's a honor system
Also your description is completely meaningless
You just right Owner needs in description and that's it
What is an Honor system?
It's the honor system
You trust people to do what they're told and follow the rules stated
Otherwise you'll be blacklisted by everyone in the game
Frankly i'd be surprised to see anyone join a map pf like that
A friend wants to know if thereās a way they can gift me a month sub from the site, is that possible?
You would need to get a time card and give them the code for it...make sure it's the same region as their mogstation account
Where can I turn off the "your mount can fly any higher" error?

Thanks, was what I needed š
Hey guys im new to the game 2-3 days in and id like some advice how to start botany/fishing/cooking in this game for a beginner pleaseā¤ļø
Do your lv10 class quest for your starting job, go pick up those jobs and get going
Class quest?
oh u mean the profession for example the ācookingāand stuff?
!faq msqtracker
-
Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.
-
An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.
By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.
Look at this and click the quest marked as 2
If I only have my stance gcds do I open with bootshine or dragon kick?
If you have no stance you do dragon kick
Alright thank you
unfortunetly im braindead , so i click this thing u showed me and then what?
oh everyone get the same trainer then?
No
since its the same quest
Every class has a different trainer
o
this carries you to 90 basically, hope it helps
These are MANDATORY to do otherwise you'll miss like 50% of your skills and will be griefing
Higher priority than story
Im coming from BDO ive been playing since years and ff14 is so complicated to me, i understand 0%
oh
ill try to do that then and follow what u saidā¤ļø
is there a spoilerless guide for msq dungeons and trails? I always die quite a lot when i meet a new one.
no
the nature of a guide would be spoilery
there's universal markers and stuff
other than that just watch the boss animations and environment
and your debuffs

thats fine, the story mode difficulty is meant to be experienced raw
only look up guides for the harder versions if you plan on doing them after you finish the base difficulty version
yeah dont feel bad for dying, just try to learn what killed you and how to avoid it and similar stuff in the future
also, if you're still in ARR, the mechanics there are a lot more obtuse than later on in the game
they become a lot more clear as the time moves forward
How fast can a mount speed go up to? Items like āMiddle La Noscea Riding Mapā can further increase the mount speed without the cap?
well there's a cap
open Travel - mount speed
for ARR it's 2 stars
for HW onwards it's 1 star
flying is fastest speed already, can't increase that
getting all stars = max speed
aka mount speeds are kinda
eh
also flying speed is never affected
If I have 2 stars already āMiddle La Noscea Riding Mapā won't do anything?
i tried looking up actual number mount speeds a while back but nobody seems to care about that so i found no info
nope
its actually shadowbringers and up that only has 1 star
I see
Thx
riding maps are the 2 star speeds for ARR-Sb
first speed is given via msq
shb-ew the maps give the first speed
I mean i figured that with flying, they'd just ditch mount speed
the mount speed was released with stormblood
the only speed info i ever found was on on foot speed increases, which is +10% for rogues (and used to be for monks), +20% for peloton, +30% for sprint (and expedient), highest one works, they don't stack
I'm already in post stormblood, the trail that makes me die a lot is the yotsuyu one since i dont know the mechanics
Although now i know how it works because i look up guides after the fight
don't stand in front of her
but i do hope theres a spoilerless one
When does moogle event end
yeah that one and the moon one
when 6.1 releases
6.1 patch
Hmm
So either 12th or 19th
My sprout icon is gonna begone soon, so no more sprout privilege, is it really ok to go in blind still?
yes
yah
yes
And you're not really near the end of sprout status
yeah
lmao, you're like 1 expansion away 
Yes
you have to go thru shb and post shb before it'll be removed
People will see the new player bonus message
!faq sprout
The
or 'sprout' indicates that you are a new adventurer in the game and is only automatically removed when you have met the following criteria: 300 hours of playtime and completed the main scenario quest Death Unto Dawn.
The icon can also be manually removed by typing /nastatus off into your chat. This isn't typically recommended as it helps other players gauge your progress into the game.
oh
it is expected that some people will be doing normal difficulty content for the first time, so nobody expects total perfection
it gets updated every expansion
it used to with shb
normal content is easy enough that a few people dying wont matter
ahh i see, no wonder i see website saying it ends at stormblood
its really not a big deal, dying when you're doing content for the first time
People who've done the content hundreds of time still die like scrubs
im the healer tho
You have another healer for trials
i feel bad for the other one
thats why theres 2
then hope for RDM and SMN in your parties :P
And other healers die often cause they don't pay attention to the telegraphed bad
unless your co healer is sleep, should be fine
that dude revive me 3 times without the instant cast skillš
i could imagine the pain
i see, thx for the encouragement
bad?
ohh i see
that make you go "ouchies"
also i think you will really like the new system in ShB for dungeons - trusts
doing dungeons with AI, an amazing learning tool
I see, probably will give it a try that time
how do I pentameld?
you keep inserting materia over the limit into gear that doesn't have 'Advanced Materia melding disabled' written on it
Need a crafter of equal level to the gear
Or get someone who has a crafter levelled to do it
i have all crafters but ARM to level 90, would that suffice?
you also need to do a quest from Mutamix to unlock it
ok well do I need a metric truckload of materia like i've heard?
the game calls it 'advanced materia melding'
Yes
ok, best way to get lvl X materia? like for gathering/crafting?
it's a very low chance of success
can't pentameld X
you need 9 iirc
can only go in 1 extra slot
Only in the first slot
the rest should be 9
What are some fast fates or content I can do for a quick few percentages for lvling?
For 80
bozja skirmishes
bozja or just tempest
so what's the best way to get crafter/gatherer IX materia?
marketboard
probably will differ depending on what you're doing ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
What crafting jobs should i pick while levelling my first DoW job?
whichever you want tbh
But won't gathering be easier if i do it in the middle of levelling my gladiator?
It doesn't matter
you'll be leveling your combat jobs through duties
It's completely separate
can't really gather in dungeons 
Im questing though. Im new to the game
There's no different between now and cap
questing is a poor way to level
They're completely optional
like
"last resort, i'm bored of everything else and it brings me pain" level of poor
the main scenario quest hands you enough gear while you're leveling that you don't need to do either crafters or gatherers
and tbh, its actually easier to level those after you've cleared the msq because you'd have a bunch of things unlocked or easily unlockable
the zones will accessible to you
timeworn zonureskin map says it suggests a party of 8 people, is that because its really difficult for 2 people to do, or because the rewards are better with more people, or something else?
So stupid question but if I change my character will I lose my story progress??
it's because of the difficutly
especially if the dungeon spawns
yes
Any beginner tips? Im kinda new to the game. Currently at level 21
Ok ty I was about to make a mistake
msq progress is not shared between characters
!faq newplayertips
but there's also very little reason to have more than one
there.
Thanks
so if you do a treasure map and a dungeon spawns, can you call for additional people to join at that point, or they had to have already been present?
have to be present
ok ty
hey, can you tp on someone in a house closed to guests with the wedding ring ?
i don't believe you can teleport to the other if they're in a place like a house or inn room
and if you could tp to the house, it wouldn't be directly inside anyway
it would be in front of the house
So I downed P1S but got no loot, can I do it again and roll again the loot ?
savage is a one chance deal per week
thats why there is a book that drops so you can ensure you will eventually get the loot you want
instead of being completely at the mercy of rng

Ok, so I better be sure that there is 2 chests, there was only one for the down.
Ignore chests on your first ever clear
0 cleared - 2 chests
1-4 - 1 chest
5-8 - 0 chests
So you can actually get into weekly clear groups
pretty much going to have to accept 1/0 chests so late in the week
yup
if you want to aim for 2 chests, you should be trying to clear after weekly reset on tues, to about thurs or so
by sun/mon you are probably not going to find a group that's getting 2 chest
Ok, understood, thanks.
What's a strong bluemage dot?
The main dot is Song of Torment and it's a staple
Nightbloom is stronger but has a 2min cooldown
Both are staples
What are staples? š®
Things you always take
like the primal spells
Oooh
Hey! So my FC is moving plots to a bigger house. Will I lose everything in my room if I donāt remove it?
No
Does the room save or will the items bounce to my inventory? š
If I move to other FC does the room gone poof?
Nothing happens to it
You.need to remove the room before you can even leave the fc
Iām not leaving the FC. The FC is moving plots
Okay. Thank you for the help.
what happen to individual rooms if the FC lose plots cuz members were inactives?
If the house is somehow demolished cause literally no one entered it then it's all gone
madness
That would literally mean all members have to not enter the house
hey a question, how can I unlock the allied seal shop at Maudlin Latool Ja?
Need to clear the level 50 BLU job quest.

unless you mean the 60
50
welp then I must have done something wrong
Oh it is the first level 60 BLU quest. There are two.
oh it is 60
nvm i guess
can you queue POTD and leave the map or does it mess it up?
asking since its queueing system is diff from duty roulette and I haven't done this in years
Why are there alot of party finders only looking for Blue mages?
I still stuff like Blu 16 or whatever
BLU gets a weekly bounty list that they can fill only with other BLU.
right now there's also an event going on and one of the most efficient ways to farm the event is to play in a full BLU party
How do i get a bear mount
become tank
Oh right that too. They can break the game and theyāre intended to.
I have drk on 80
There's a Christmas bear on the mogstation iirc
some were event mounts and you can buy them off mog station
in partyy
warriors get 2 bears from their personal tanking achievements
not the leveling ones
WAR gets a bear mount from running extremes and the like.
the complete content ones
you have to do like 200 high end duties with warrior
Do you know what content i need to beat as WAR?
all tanks have a mount
is there a way to directly use certain idle poses without cycling through them all with /changepose
just check the achievements
set the idle pose timer to 0 and switch to the pose you want
But somebodys gotta do it (Warrior)
and
Thank you, Warrior III
*Tank you
can i mitigate bleed damage after i already get the debuff?
Im about to do a world transfer but have an apartment. Can I relocate it? And if so how?
You have to give it up
I mean if you have a self heal like gunbreaker and warrior sure
No, like with player buffs, enemies also snapshot. Best you can do is get shields
Damage over time effects snapshot on the initial damage dealt, so no
Bard abuses the fuck out of this, just fyi
if you meant like damage reduction mits than no
only the self-heal type mitigations
Oh wait, this game snapshots? I never knew that
Just place a shield on the wound

Unless it's something placed on the floor like a bubble or puddle, it snapshots buffs when cast
wait ground DoTs dont snapshot?
Your buffs yes, enemy ones no
oh ok
As the target is the ground in technically
is there a list of the glams used in fashion face off? incl. hairstyles
uhh
I know the red and black dress worn in the initial quest is the
!iglam high house bustle
But that's about all I really noticed xd
They 100% still can
You don't need to talk to be griefing
It's not but you can still be reported if you're not responding for helpful feedback and thus seem like you're intentionally messing people
You should have party chat on in case people are explaining stuff
hello folks and mind i ask this question
i have a new sound system to my pc and i have already linked to ps4 and wonder how to play with sound and mic only and still use the controller direct to ps4 if that is possible ??? and i know it is not a ff14 question but if it is possible and im about to play ff14
Or offering constructive advice
People don't really post spoilers in party
Unless they're just an asshole but that's rare and far between
ive never once seen someone talk about spoilers in game except some mentors in novice network
Disabling party chat is gonna cause more trouble than anything
Sure turn off tells, says and yells but at least leave party
this is an mmo so turning off all sorts of communication is
very very not a good idea
Asking for misunderstanding and/or trouble
welk tbh spoilers whom are streaming are showing the endwalker content so twitch and what ever other streaming platform ppl will see them
Most spoiler thing I see in party chat is, "enjoy the cutscene" after specific dungeons
That's you having to actively go to twitch and watch them
taking the risk of opening twitch is on you
i have already seen it so and so far that has been long past since november
any how i got a question and maybe i need to ask in another channel
Well, imma be blunt your question was clear as mud
And #952326072542847016 might be able to help but it sounds very personal problem
def shouldnt be one of those "you dont pay my sub" people 
Itās your funeral
if youre gonna actively reject peoples advice in game then
i mean ok
cutting off peoples communication with you is exactly what thats doing
like how do you expect to get advice if you mute everyone
ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
you also never have to upgrade to your job but that doesnt mean its right
This isnāt the place to be arguing this

They added it in the nier raids

And it's become more mainstream
theres also a stack tank buster
which is just the stack marker but red
if its like a revolving circle then its a single tank buster
which pvp mode was the one going away? was it frontlines? 
feast
ok phew š thanks for the quick reply
does this work or do you need one to be diagonal if you want 3

Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.
Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.
Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!
All the workable 3 lines
whoa thanks
also you can count that in your example you'd need 10 stickers
man my brain is smooth today
You have to make a triangle in some formation, thatās the quickest way to tell if 3 line is possible
what is the section in the credits sorted alphabetically with like 10,000 names in it?
Can Female Roeghadyn use lightinings Hairstyle?
Yeah, all females can

what's the bluemage ability called that sucks everything in an aoe in?
Sounds like Hydro Pull
is there a uk version of the store? (the one where you buy optional items from)
Mogstation is Mogstation. It's whatever region your account is.
You pay in whateverās connected to your mogstation
mine defaults to US store even though im UK
changing the url to en-uk redirects back to en-us
you'd fall under eu
In the corner thereās a drop down
afaik
The url is en-gb so thatās why
oh i see, you can select the currency from top right
thank you
another question, is there a search bar on that site?
i cant see one but maybe im being stupid again
The website is rather badly designed
So no


i still die sometimes in dungeons cause i fuck up
