Yeah, best you can do is pick the category for the item/s you want, then sort... but the sort is limited.
To get the 6 Bitter Memories, do you need to do the dungeons/daily roulettes as the class that needs the memories or can you go as anything?

For the ShB relic? You can go as any class as long as you have the quest open.
awesome thank you so much! I'll use that time to level up another class then while getting the memories!
Is there a way to always have clothes when trying on stuff?
Lol no, they ain’t gonna let you just glam stuff you don’t own
I thought it was like "Save this for later once you have the items for glamour" kind of save
can u dye something thats been glam plated?
yes
cool that makes maanging FR a lot easier
It’s only dyed on that plate so if you remove the item, it’ll have to be redyed if you put it on a plate again
There’s also a “show equipped gear” button
cant i just...reapply the plate?
That one I know
But wanted a perma one so I don't have ta click it over and over again lol
You can reapply the plate as much as you want, just if you remove the item you dyed by dying on the glamour plate it will have whatever color it has on the item if you try to put it in a glamour plate again
So if you want something to stay a certain color, you dye it in the dresser
yea i meant moreso as a one off for FR
you can also just dye the item itself
It’d be easier to just equip the item
also that
yeah I just equip items for fashion report
End of Realm Reborn the only time you get a free appearance change?
Correct
Boo.. ok.. thank ya thank ya
use it wisely young padawan
I thought I did.. but hindsight.. xD
Never thought they'd get ahold of my wallet because of aesthetics.. lol
A tag for leveling up crafters? Does such a thing exist?
what do u mean by this
I'm trying to level up my weaver, that's all
I was wondering if there's a tag that links an up-to-date guide for leveling up crafters
it's kinda just #doh-dol-lounge ishgard restoration probably if youre under 80
Pardon? What does that mean?
ishgard restoration is the catchup mechanic for crafting/gathering
once u finish heavensward
First off, go get the doh role
I just finished the 'Heavnsward' quest, can I do it?
No, restoration is post 3.3 for plot reasons
Oh. I'm 5 quests away in this case.
Alright, and then I have to do some blue quest and I unlock... something that will help me level up crafters?
Did I get this right?
You aren’t 5 quests away

If you just finished 3.0
2 votes and 0 comments so far on Reddit
is there a server like this but in Aether?
im in it but its dead 😦
ah then no idea
does everybody get their own lb3?
Unique animations yes
Lb is a shared resource
so its per party in alliance raids then
Yes
copy ty
You don't get lb3 in dungeons anyways
4-7 players get 1 bar, 8 player party gets 2 bars. You get +1 bar in a boss fight
I got this game like a year ago and played it through steam, and then I stopped, but I'm back now. I didnt want to have to log into my old account so i made a new one but I linked it to my steam account, now my steam is permanently trying to force me to log into this new account and I can't get back into my old one... help?
if we play as armourer/blacksmith, do we have to track down recipes?
basically im trying to unlink my steam
You can't on your own
They’re in your crafting log
At each level cap there are some master recipe books you can buy to unlock some special recipes
But by and large no
the reciped you unlock as you progress through the levels are the only ones we can create?
ah ok
thanks
There’s a 2nd page of recipes too, it’s where the master ones go when you use em
if u dont have a recipe, good chance youre too low level
yep found that, thank you

Anyone know if Odin spawn on Light server ?
Use a fate tracker
Oh u got a web site for this ??
does DR have some sort of cutoff timer where it just takes whoever is in queue and rolls with that or does it wait until it has 24 people every time?
10? alrighty
That’s correct yeah
let's hope we get a healer because I don't have any beast essences
3 dps and a paladin nice lol we're so screwed
Is there any quick way to view my death log ? the battle log channel is such a mess.
When do they normally remove the savage tier weekly gear restriction?
You can trim down what's displayed there, pulling out any information you don't want or need.
When the next tier comes out.
So only in patch 6.2?
Yes
uh, more specifically
it's usually the .18 patch
so generally a few weeks before the tier is over
told by my friends further along that dungeons become a hell of a lot more linear starting w HW, this true?
Yes
thank god
Dungeons are just straight lines
I'm a completionist and it burns to just always skip over enemies and side rooms cause no one wants to do them. Makes me feel like I'm playing the dungeon completely differently from how the devs intended
well it's cause they don't provide any xp
Can you use Job attacks in a gpose
I know
hit a dummy and then go into gpose
thank you!
Everyone, including devs quickly realised that side rooms are dumb, stupid and pointless which is why they stopped doing them very early
Where are screenshots stored?
documents > my games > ff14 > screenshots
get a friend and go get the achievements in sunken temple of qarn
well I guess you can do them alone
if you do all the side corridors right and open the secret room at the end of the dungeon

For the trial of the braves book does it matter which books I choose? I’m worried this is a system where I can mess up my weapon stat wise
You can do them in any order. Also the ARR relic weapon's stats will not matter anyway since the ensuing campaign almost immediately outstrips them.
With the exception of the ShB relic, which I believe is still BiS for one of the ultimates, relic weapons from past campaigns are essentially glamour-only items.
I’ll still do them for glamour but if I want can I also skip to endwalker relic weapons immediately
the only one that has a connection to the other is ARR relic to the HW one, and all it does it let you skip the first step of the HW relic
Although you can skip the first hw step with the arr weapon
Not worth the effort to skip a step
outside of that, no connection
Just making sure it is known
You can also have any and all relic quest chains active at the same time, no need to limit yourself if you have cool-looking weapons you want.
The only restriction is you can't have multiple of the same quest active.
But since you can gain more drops than you need for quest steps that involve dropped items, like the Atma step, you can farm item drops for more than one weapon with a single quest, and then later when you're working a different weapon and get to that step, you basically just accept and immediately turn it in.
The books for the step you're on right now are one of the few spots where it gets weird, because you can only ever have one book at a time.
Ah alright
2 other things
1: are any of the later expansions relic weapons more or less grindy than ARR
2: how much better is current expansion maxed relic weapon vs current expansion ironworks weapon?
I ask not to decide if I wanna do them, just to know how much I should temper my expectations when I do them
Relic weapons are 5 item levels higher than the end of expansion max tier tomestone gear, which is what Ironworks is for ARR.
So it's technically better, yes.
I’m really confused about something. If you’re on a free trial account and you buy the starter edition is it still a starter edition? Was really wanting to use the market board and be able to join FC’s.
personally think ARR is the worst of the lot
Can I join FC’s and use the market board if I buy the online starter edition?
Yes
However, as I said, gear in Heavensward will almost immediately outstrip it.
ARR > STB > HW > SHB in terms of grindiest to least grindy
but for each of the relics, the hardest part is honestly getting the first weapon done
That yes was for me? 🥺
Yes
Okay thank you
since you don't have things unlocked and can pre-farm certain steps
alt weapons for most of the relics are relatively easy, but ARR books are usually the most tedious part
ARR - it's the arr relic, it blows big time (book step is just
)
STB - Eureka, enough said (it's like bozja but worse in every way)
HW - lots and lots of poetics
SHB - basically 0 currency, just duty grinds
Thank you
strictly from a grind perspective i would say eureka is probably worse than ARR
ShB currently will likely lock you out of progression during Bozja, though, simply because no one is really doing one or two of the required content spots.
Since you also have to deal with elemental levels, but once you're done with that its not a big deal
Eureka isn't that bad
I got from Anemos to Pyros in like 2-3 days
Granted i had a party
but it also comes down to personal pref as well
Is eureka worse than ARR in terms of brain management as well? Aka you have to keep checking a book for what to do and if you did enough of something
not everyone mind eureka
STB is braindead
not everyone minds ARR's bullshit
like it's literally mind numbing
nah, ARR is definitely worse in that you need to double check things imo
points to all of pagos
fuck this area specifically
you can turn your brain off very easily in eureka
Anemos - very chill
Pagos - Literally why do you exist
Pyros and Hydatos - r e f l e c t
Thank you… also relic armor I just saw is a thing?
In what way exactly? In terms of the definition or just unneeded?
in terms of definition
It's about as relic as Anemos weapon
It gets better once
But that's it
nothing after that
Does that mean it’s an easier grind?
Still annoying af
You need to unlock 50 logogram actions
Then you can buy the base non-glowy in pyros
Then you need to get to hydatos
Then you need to get the last 6 actions
Then you can get the glowy +1
and if you want to have an easier time in the future, you gotta do Baldesion for materials to make it +2
You also need to progress your relic
Which is even more grinding
So unlike relics alone armor is linked between expansions?
nope
only STB has relic-like armor
well
bozja also has it
but it's not close to being the best or anything
Is endwalker ironworks better atm?
I know this is purely subjective but would you say either eureka or boja armor for a monk or dark knight is worth it?
Whatever you like the look of
DRK
It's only good if you want to do more eureka content
if you want a cool theme
Or for glamour
!iglam elemental armor of fending +1
!iglam cronus
cause they fit
Thank you
Anyone having Discord Push to Talk issues with FF14 recently?
Running both Discord and FF14 in admin, still not working
i can put clothes in the fc chest to transfer them between characters right
yer
ok good
so long as its not bound ofc
hey, can some people tell me how exactly to earn these items properly
One is behind a skybuilder's scrips, and another is behind a fete tokens. I'm a level 35 gatherer and a level 20-30 crafter, what should I focus on to earn these
Also, want the pegasus minion too
basically, just gather and craft items for the ishgard restoration, you'll slowly get skybuilder's scrips
Also fetes are a free 500
while in the firmament, there should be a notice that inciates when fetes will be running
so pay attention to the timer for that and be in the zones when a fete is running to participate
slowly? So, aren't these items time limited? Will I run out of time
i namely say slowly because at your level, you aren't going to be getting a lot of scrips from turn ins though the fetes will definitely help out with it
once you're higher level, the turn ins give a lot more scrips
but ye like vinyl said, its perm content
you are free to do this whenever you want
So, it won't get removed like diadem content
That is the diadem
SE doesn't remove content
basically old diadem died to be repurposed for the restoration
and its not going away
this is the final form of diadem
It’s not getting updated again, but it’s not going away either
I loved old diadem, I really dislike This version, I hope they rerelease some of the old features like the monsters in some other form or fashion. I miss Brachiosaurus. Anyway, it's a releif to hear that
i mean old diadem is basically eureka/bozja to a degree
so if you liked old diadem, may enjoy those
ok
That's not entirely true to this point. There is 1 removed content, and that was Brachiosaur. I have yet to find any trace of the monster in any other form.
it does exist in zadnor, which is the 2nd zone of bozja
We have a minion for it too
zadnor
Zone 2 fate in zadnor
Oh, sounds fun. I hope it's as good as the original fight
Significantly weaker
Cause you're broken as fuck in bojza/zadnor and fates actually scale
ye not quite same bullshit as original diadem
I mean, your limited to level 80 with only one
you're not
No??
you can level them all
To 90?
im in eureka should i exchange these anemos crystals for protean or are the anemos ones really important?
Yes
You can and you are in fact expected to level all crafting classes
You can get EVERYTHING to 90
When did that change
!whoami
its nevr been liek that
it's literally always been that way
Since forever
you've always been able to max out all classes/jobs
Maybe, I'm thinking of another game
Literally everything capped except 3 cause lazy
does dissipation only boost gdc healing or all my healing actions?
There's two notable types of healing up buffs in the game. The most common for healers to have is written as 'increases healing magic potency.' Skills with this phrasing buff the outgoing healing done from GCD heals only by the person(s) with this buff applied, and it does not affect oGCD heals.
Healer actions with this effect:
• Neutral Sect (AST)
• Fey / Seraphic Illumination (SCH | applies to the whole party)
• Dissipation (SCH)
• Temperance (WHM)
• Zoe (SGE)
The other type is written as 'HP recovery via healing actions.' Skills with this phrasing increase the amount of incoming heals on the target with this buff and the increase is applied to ALL heals, including oGCDs. Many of these skills come from non-healer roles, so it's helpful to know how they function.
Actions with this effect:
• Asylum (WHM | Players must be inside the bubble to receive buff)
• Protraction (SCH)
• Physis II (SGE | AoE buff)
• Krasis (SGE)
• Mantra (MNK | AoE buff)
• Nature's Minne (BRD)
• Thrill of Battle (WAR)
• Magick Barrier (RDM | AoE buff)
oh dumb
Ah yes, I just looked it up, and I was confusing this game with aion
Ok, I will level ALL my handiworks
You generally don't use it for the healing buff too often, mainly just the stacks
i know but it would have been cool
It would have been broken
can I PL a 60 blue in endwalker zones
Mobs over lv70 don't give the boosted xp
oh ok
So it's significantly slower
Lv70 mobs
it would be far easier to just go to the hildibrand trial
It’s not like the duty’s going anywhere, just take your time and enjoy the ride
Unsync still enforces the minimum level requirement, also
nah the other blu doesn't care for hildebrand quests
thinks its a chore
brought it up
2 days ago too lol
When u press on loot a number shows up what is that?🤔
That is your roll.
If your roll is the highest roll in the group, you win.
If the class you are currently on can use the loot, or if it's just general loot, you can roll Need; otherwise you can roll Greed.
Need gets resolved first. If no one rolls or can roll Need, then Greed is resolved.
anyone who use delv ui, is there a fix to make the spell descriptions overlap my health bar?
XP buffs from FC and Food don't work inside Bozja correct?

Is it possible to change the size of your chocobo? I understand that it changes depending on your character's race/ height but can it change without changing that? Because I saw someone with a huge chocobo despite being short 😅
no
there can be some stable ...issues, wouldnt call it a glitch per se
but if you are like a roe, and you race change to a lalafel while your chocobo is stabled then it'll be the appropriate size for roe until you take it out
have u tried changing the the bar foreground/background setting?
im not sure if it will help
Oh ok thank you very much!
Did you perhaps see the Fat Chocobo
No, it was a normal chocobo, just really tall, or something like that. The person was riding it
Crafting gear 6.1, combat gear 6.2

ninja or drg is the lowest dmg among the melees ?
Is it possibly this one?
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Draught_Chocobo
!faq metameme
It doesn’t matter, play the one you like more
All jobs are viable
its not a matter of best dmg
By virtue ninja should be the lowest personal dps due to having trick attack
it was a general question
Generally the stronger utility you have, the lower personal dps you'll have
If you're asking which one has the lowest damage, then it is a matter of best damage, by virtue of it being a matter of the worse damage.
rpr has a utility with big dmg
3% dmg buff on 2min cooldown isn't much
but it helps.
Vs a 5% dmg buff every minute which rotations are literally built around
Technically, iirc Ninja deals the lowest personal damage, but Ninja has great utility to compensate. And as was said, all jobs are viable, and that is a statement for a reason
did the devs told us why they removed the dot
Plus Monk does about the same as Rpr and has brotherhood which is a stronger arcane circle
for ninja
It's a needless button that added nothing
Yeah, basically it was pointless busy work.
You didn't interact with it at all
Oh! So that's what that was! Thank you!
Same basic reason Summoner's got removed.
dotn is alternative now ?
You never doton in single target
(outside of pre pull where it's free)
so no more dots for single target
They will have everything you are looking for.
Np. As a Lalafell with that mount myself, it was the first thing that came to mind
about the balance i saw a build with det materia why shoulden't we go crits
Stat tiering
i feel uncomfortable asking on their server
Why? That’s what the place is for
All melds are picked specifically for stat tiering
So there's little to no wasted stats
im running fulls crits on all my job should i change it
If you're doing casual content only, you should be fine.
the other crit
If you care about doing Savages and such
If you're doing high end content you could be considered to be griefing.
oof
Yeah, as long as you’re melding something that actually works on the item, you’re doing well enough for the most part
im doing savage with full crits i feel like an idiot
Though some jobs do rely a good amount on having specific GCDs for specific cooldowns or rotation alignment
All jobs priotise crit
Also, if you're putting crit on a piece of gear with maxed-out crit already, you're gaining zero things from that materia, just so you know.
ya
Stats work in tiers, meaning your stats don't do anything unless they hit a specific amount
Each gear has an internal cap on how much of a stat can exist. The highest substat is almost always maxed out, so adding more of the same gives you no benefit.
So if you're half way into a stat tier, those points are wasted when they could be something else that pushes another stat into its next tier
That's why you see "weird" melds in bis slots when it could have more of a higher priotise stat
Stat tiers above
should i revamp my materia or wait for 6.1
I would doubt that "0.1%" is accurate, but it is up to you, yes.
That's so cool that you have one!

What do the lock symbols on the level 89 gear mean?
Ah.
the lock is over the 'dye' icon
Interesting requirement.
Anyone in here by chance know some stuff about housing NPCs? I had a question that I've googled like 100 different ways and can't find an answer to, but know it is possible somehow...
just ask
It's an easier method to obtain dyable artifact gear than the previous expansion, which required you to farm an extreme trial repeatedly for drops.
Well, recently I attended a venue. And they had their housing NPCs, which I would presume is like the junkmonger and such. But the NPC was doing emotes, one of which was in front of a bookshelf examining the books in a way? Kinda like the confirm emote, but like I said, I haven't found any answers as to how it is done.
Any BLU here?
I've searched for a setting or options literally everywhere and can't find a damn thing
i'm pretty sure they just automatically play something like a greeting emote when you get close to them
and i doubt you can adjust that
well they bow by default, yes, but I was nowhere near these NPCs and it was browsing the bookshelf.
I have no idea how the heck they did it, but they did it and I wanna know how
There are Multiple, ask your question
is there any likelihood that island sanctuary will be locked behind msq progression or is it more likely that itll just cost money like the housing system
are you sure it was an npc cause npcs cant do emotes
No clue
understandable
we'll find out in 2 weeks
isnt it not expected until august tho
1000% positive, it was not a player. I seen them emote so I got a bit close to see and they had no name tag and were not clickable. They also had the attire of the housing NPC

if not we'll hear about it in 3 months
i want my ffxiv stardew valley smh
my 5Head guess is that it will tie into zone4, but that's just it, a guess
Island Sanctuary is slated for 6.2 so we won't hear more about htat likely until the PLL for it @near yew
shoot me already .. 1hr and Ifrit being stingy with Eruption 😦
Just sync the normal fight
oh guess i just need to complain on discord to make him drop it LOL
makes sense

Is anyone good with gardening here? I planted some pahsana fruit and old world fig seeds to crossbreed. But when it came to time to harvest, none of the old world figs yield any seeds at all.
did you use thanalan topsoil?
I looked it up and it seems the crossing chance is decent for those two, so you either planted them in the wrong orientation or you didn't use thanalan soil
or you were ungodly unlucky
hey so i'm lvl 45 and i'm doing the quest for my relic armor for thauma and the enemies are messing me up bad. any help or tips?
make sure you equipped the best stuff you have
i do have it all
if you're still struggling, use the Sleep spell to control some enemies
the best stuff
Yup I'm using thanalan top soil, or does old world fig not crossbreed with pahsana at all? It's weird since I'm getting zero seeds
ok didn't think of that
xivgardening states they cross to make royal kukuru
if you use grade 3 thanalan and got nothing, then the only other factor was that you didn't plant them in the right orientation
or you were extremely unlucky
it's mainly the deepvoid wizards
haven't got past them yet
Hmm, all of them yielded zero seeds. It should be in the correct orientation as it's like this
F-P-F
P-X-P
F-P-F
where F is old world figs and P is pahsana
then you just got really, really unlucky
you shouldnt have problems killing them before killing you, you probably have very weak gear on, or there's some other fixable issue
it's not a 100% chance to cross each time
i have the best gear on, according to the reccomended gear in the character screen
link a screenshot of your character's gear
I see... but what are the odds that all 7 beds failed to yield a single seed though...
I wouldn't have been as surprised if you were crossing to try and get thav onion
since the rate on successful onions is a lot lower
I'm assuming that's your end goal if you're crossing for kukuru right now
Yup I'm going for kukurus. So it's confirmed that pahsana and old world figs do cross breed to yield kukuru right?
with a good rate, yes, according to xivgardening
i didn't use the 4x4 setup you're using though, I used a cheaper 5x3 step
Oh, I didn't know about 5x3 setup until it's too late. Should I dismantle it and switch to 5x3?
that should be sufficient
still having problems tho
4x4 gets results faster since there's more chances to cross (since you're meant to be replanting all 8)
are you using the correct damage priority? staying in fire phase for as long as you can so you can blast with improved fires?
Oh wait, I need to replant all 8?
I thought I can leave the pahsana fruits unharvested.
yup i'm going fire until not enough mp, then switching to ice to regain, and also using thunder for dot
you could just replant only 4 of them, but if you were only gonna pull out half the plants then it's far better to do a 5x3
strange, that all sounds normal
you only plant 3 pahsana, keep them in place, and replant the 5 old world figs
i guess you can just wait with not doing the job quest until level 50
and then obliterate it with poetics gear later
all they're throwing is thunder
So in my case, I should keep my 4 pahsanas in place right?
It's not that I need to harvest them and replant the seeds to have a chance at cross-breeding yes?
Well i'm on garuda and wanted to have better gear before I fought
if the game doesn't bar you from queueing up, don't worry about it
in your case you should replant to a 5x3 setup if your intention is to leave the pahsana permanently planted
normal content is easy enough for it not to matter
you only have four chances to get a successful cross in a 4x4 setup where you are leaving one plant permanently planted
vs 5 in a 5x3 set
use this image as a guide, just replace tantalplant with pahsana fruit
I see, but that would mean I'll have to harvest my 4 pahsanas and get 3 more new pahsana seeds for the new setup yes?
so it sounds like you only had 4 chances for a successful cross, that's a lot more likely than all 7 failing
yes you have to rip apart your current setup
but 5x3 is going to be significantly better for your strategy in the long run
4x4 is better if you were gonna replant everything every time
What do you mean by replant everything?
in 4x4 you rip out all 8 plants every cycle
for maximum number chances to cross
which means you spend more money on seeds
but you just told me you're keeping the pahsana permanently planted
if that's the case then switch to 5x3 so you have 5 crossbreed chances instead of 4 from the 4x4 setup
Have you unlocked dhazmel darkhold, because that gear should help you out
you leave 3 pahsana permanently planted like in that guide pic above, then you replant the old world figs only each time
and if you get a kukuru seed from crossing, then you just plant the kukuru in the single spot between the two pahsanas
unless you get two kukuru, then you plant them in a pair spot
I see. Hmm let me consider it. It's going to be very expensive to have to buy more pahsana seeds again...
don't have to consider it, I strongly recommend you just do it if your strategy was to leave pahsana permanently planted
you get 25% more yield compared to 4x4 in the long run
?

It’s a lvl 44 dungeon
I see, thks for your advice
full set on complete, or little by little in drops?
Enough to beat the quest
have you checked that weather icon on the upper right side of your minimap
thunder right
because there's what sounds like a clap of thunder right as the video stops
and it looks like lightning effects
and that icon is a stormy one lol
those are some crazy lightning effects lol
destroys my eyes virtually and irl
I’ve had some very nice weather timings in cutscenes
Especially early CNJ ones with stormy weather
have they announced when the end of the moogle tomestones/start of 6.1 is?
is there a command to input for a macro that places a macro within a slot of a hotbar? I want to make it so if i click macro5, which is on a hotbar, it replaces it with macro 6 in the exact same slot
oh yeah, I wanted to know if I could remap my control to switch to the second hotbar set to one of my mouse buttons to make it easier to use than using control
You'd have to do that externally to the game inside your computer's functionality, so that when you press, say, Mouse 5, the computer interprets that as Ctrl and sends that information to the game client.
As far as I'm aware, the game client will not let you reclassify specific buttons as keypress modifiers.
On the other hand, if you want to change hotbar 1 to swap to one of the other ones, you def could map some macros to that mouse button to do that
but would have to have some way to switch back, so it'd be a lil confusing
Is 6.1 gonna have new crafting gear?

Yes.
The penta melding kind or the scrips kind?
can nascent flash be macroed so i dont have to target an ally for it to activate?
yeah
yes, but the default in game macro is kind of jank
the gist is you can make it work on MO
just make sure you use it in a correct ogcd window
but the game's built-in macro feature for that is rather unreliable
or it will jank yeah, you'll need some practice to make it work
if you're comfortable using third party plugins
mouse over action from XIVLauncher is much better for that purpose

Can I get a staep-by-step of what this person was saying? I'm trying to have the gear appear as a glamour on one class, and a dye base look on the others.
Not 100% sure this is what you're asking for. But you could have macro 5 change to hotbar 2 for e.g. and have macro 6 on hotbar 2 in the same spot
thank you very much @vast hinge and @patent citrus !
yeah that was def a route i could take, I was honestly hoping to not have to do that if absolutely possible haha
Make 2 glam plates, 1 with the dye 1 without
Really isn’t complicated
Sadly not too much in game macros could do@sullen vine
Hi all! I desperately need help with understanding Arcanist. I have no clue how the trance gauge works. The game and official guides are extremely vague with explaining what any of its UI means. I can't find a single ELI5 explanation online of how it works. Its typically people talking about more general strategies rather than talking about what any of it actually means. I just hit level 10 so now I just got aetherflow which is equally confusing. I'm not sure why the active help pages talk about these topics as if you already understand what it is and its purpose 😫
Here's the only information from the wiki and the official job guide. I added my basic questions as edits.
My interpretation is that I cast Aethercharge and this bar appears. But then I have to wait for the timer to count down to zero in order to use something like Summon Ruby? What's the purpose of the timer and waiting for this bar to deplete? Do I have any control over how long it takes for that timer to count down? Does that timer restart or take longer when I get Summon Topaz/Emerald? How long after that timer runs out do I have to use Summon Ruby/Topaz/Emerald?
Any help would be very, very greatly appreciated ❤️
This may not be what you want to hear, but it's what you need to hear: you're overthinking this a tad for level 10. =)
The big timer amps your Ruin and Catastrophe
(or whatever the generic aoe is)
I only know it's Tri-Disaster at higher levels 
Trance gauge will eventually become Bahamut (and eventually Firebird) timers. Until that point, while it's active it simply buffs your main spell, and when it ends it gives you access to the gemstone effects.
Honestly just lvl up, and you’ll figure it out as more stuff is added
the gauge will be upgraded when you unlocked the skill at higher level that requires them
also pretty sure the number is literally a countdown timer
so yeah, at lower level, you'll get a simpler gauge
Yeah The base ACN gauge should be pretty basic
at the moment, while the bar is counting down, your spammable spells are slightly upgraded
but it's such a low amount it's barely noticeable
doesn't feel very good i agree
but this will change later
what should i meld for dark knight
!faq thebalance
guides for all your endgame needs
enough sks to get 5 gcd for bw > crit > det/dh
also have a try on in-game job gauge description
type /actionlist -> actions -> look down there's a (?) button
It might explain better than that pic..
you're overthinking this a tad for level 10.
Honestly this I'm somewhat happy to hear this. Maybe its because this is my first foray into MMOs, but it seems like an insane game design decision to frontload all of this rather complex information when I'm supposed to mostly ignore it right now?
i don't agree that it's necessarily complex
because it gets built upon when you get to higher levels
like they said above it eventually becomes bahamut and then phoenix gauges
So for now it's: aethercharge > spam Ruin until timer expires > then use Ruby until it's out of charges > back to spamming Ruin until aethercharge comes back.
but that will be drip fed to you
smn at higher levels is definitely one of the more braindead classes
you just have to actually use the things to realize how they work
Also, don't feel weird for not understanding it immediately. The game doesn't ... really do a super great job of explaining itself to the player at very low levels,
smn is for sure by far the easiest DPS job to play at 90
and the kits are all designed for max level, and sort of arbitrarily spaced out over the levels in between
yes, just play, make sure you do all your job quest, and when you unlock a new skill make sure you read the tooltip
the game will introduces you the class very slowly from a simple 1-2-3 combo to dancing with skills that requires 3 hotbars
your tooltips explain like 90% of the information of how to play the class
so tbh you won't really feel like Summoner (which is what Arcanist becomes) until around, say, level 60 or so
Patch 6.08: Astral Impulse now 440, Ruby Rite 450, and Fountain of Fire 540. No use changes.
New? Got too many skills? Made the mistake of using a level skip and have no idea what anything does? Just hate reading? Try this guide out!
This guide seeks to teach new Summoners how to Summoner properly, without getting too deep into optimization....
also just realized weskalber made a new vid
yeah wesk's guides are fantastic
explains everything about the job in a way thats understandable to new players
Until that point, while it's active it simply buffs your main spell, and when it ends it gives you access to the gemstone effects.
This makes perfect sense, I just wish this was explained exactly like this in-game lol.
Thanks for the information and tips y'all!
his "how to dps" vid is an hour and a half long 
Definitely going to check this out, thanks!
I watched his entire how to heal vid and it was long as shit but all good things
question, how do i make the ability bar stand horizontal
right-click the hotbar number
what does carbuncle do?
nothing
ah thx
you tell it to do 2 things, and it does them
well not nothing per se
because its required for several skills
radiant aegis and searing light are cast by the carbuncle when you use them
and you need the carbuncle summoned to summon your demis
I mean @fathom glacier this was just posted in the channel
it just doesn't auto attack
oh didn't notice
Hi guys, is there any leveling guides for alts?
!faq altlevelingguide
!faq altlvlguide
many thanks!!
How solo-able is Alexander on Savage? Or rather what IL would I need to solo it? [DNC,RPR,DRK]
I really like the pieces for glam purposes.
I don't really understand what did you just say, aside from the fact that I need to be much stronger
90 is enough, tho for a4s you need some pretty good burst or a homie to help
ilvl 580 is the norm for lvl 90
i have to reunlock mentor roulette and it's the only trial i don't have lol
each phase is like 2 mins
like phase 2 you dont even see meteors lmao
So maybe another question, because it will probably be a loong time before I get to 90 and even longer before I get to IL580 as I'm like 15 levels ahead of my content unlocked: do people run alexander savage in statics or just random groups in PF? I haven't really raided at all so it's all new to me
PF
its old content
does anyone have an updated guide for ishgard restortion in EW
oh yeah, i didnt check there
if it is just unrestricted I did recently A9S with 2 tanks (DRK) 2 mins each run
my ilvl is just 570
hm, what's it under? cant seem to find it
A12S will probably takes a bit longer than 2 mins
yeah there, thanks
"Lv80 onwards: note, EXP gets nerfed to 1000 once you hit lv80. If you want to farm skybuilders scrips come back at lv90 and 2 button it with trained eye."
thats exactly what i wanted to see, thanks!

ye I was gonna do the ones under it
although I bet the expert recipes are significantly easier to max with level 90 gear nowadays
they are ye
so expert recipe is what people call recipe that has stars right?
no
expert crafts are a special kind of craft that literally no one is going to be doing regularly
I see
expert recipes are specifically the grade 2/3/4 Artisanal Recipes for restoration/crafter relic
although i heard there was something like expert crafts if you wanted a shb crafter relic
Yes
yeah apparently expert recipe has "expert recipe" written in the title
idk if they were as difficult as the ishgard ones
I never notice this
i believe they're not quite as painful
it was macroable at 90
but the main thing they did for the relic is that they made that step quicker
but even then it was close lol
as you needed a certain amount of items to turn in/exchange for
and the experts gave more
so similar ish concept as the restoration experts
expert crafts actually bend the rules to regular crafting
so most people who've never done it before are gonna be a bit lost
can you farm irregular tomestone during the morning? frontline doens't work well in the morning 😅
if you manage to fill a BLU party sure
great 🙂
I just do my frontline and msq roulette, because I’m lazy
I have found out how to use glamour and glamour plates but cant hide gear with it. I can hide gear in the inventory but how do I use this in a glamour plate? I want to look dashing but without the headpeace showing 😦 - EDIT NVM found it 🙂
which skill?
well yes, but it's the same as other shields
you overheal people even when their hp is full
and it applies a shield equal to the heal
The shield doesn't scale on "how much heal actually happens"
how do people play bard cause i find it sporadic to my liking
with all the random procs
Yup
It has a song rotation
Then it is a list of priorities you just follow
There are skills you press every 30s or 60s
But outside of those
Priorities
and does TBN proc before a shield cuz sometime that thing dont pop Sadge
I know we only just recently had a sale for the online store for various glamours, but how often we can expect such sales?
from what i know
i think you do armys
and then idk which of the other ones is second
When SE says they happen
TBN has the highest priority as a shield, as far as I can tell.
eukrasion diagnosis is the same prio iirc, since it procs something if it breaks
eukrasion is 1 below tbn
It's like TBN > sage shield > everything else
ah ok, is there like a list somewhere so i can check
I think it is just something the players worked out
!faq shieldpriority
I don't think they checked beyond TBN and sage shield
Oh damn
!action arcane crest
Grants Crest of Time Borrowed to self, creating a barrier that nullifies damage totaling up to 10% of maximum HP.
Duration: 5s
Grants Crest of Time Returned to self and nearby party members within a radius of 15 yalms when barrier is completely absorbed.
Crest of Time Returned Effect: Gradually restores HP
Cure Potency: 50
Duration: 15s
hey that's a neat list
ty
Hamias had a higher priority than I thought
i assume its because hamia and panhamia kind of need to break
True...I had I feeling they were above tank shields cause I notice them break before those
is that why dark knight has a hard time getting tbn to break
TBN is the highest priority
so it would be the first to break
if its not breaking, then whatever you're fighting isn't doing enough dmg
because either you vastly out gear it or out level it
i see
Why thank you this is extremely useful
The only time tbn isn't top is when you apply it to a rpr using arcan crest
what is the best spot to level my friend blu
amh araeng near mord souq or khoulsia beach
Does anyone know why this happens
I'm reading that glamour plates are just a cheper way to do whole sets? I've never used them, but I'm not clear on how that helps. What I'm trying to ask is , is there a way to have this Augmented Shire Prilosopher's Coat appear as Sorceror's Coat on Black Mage, but a Void Blue dyed version on Blue Mage, or can you only have one or the other? I currently have undyed appearance on Blue.
do exactly what was described
make 2 glam plates
1 with the dye 1 without
assign the one with dye to black mage
void blue to blue mage
it's cheaper in that you don't have to reapply your dye or spend glamour prisms when you swap appearances
especially cheaper in the case of expensive dyes
if you care at all about glamour you need to be using glam plates, like yesterday
But they're not both dyes, one is an actual appearance change? Also, wouldn't that need you to revisit the dresser every time you want to swap?
you can apply a full glamour plate anywhere you can apply a glamour
i.e. any safe area
you don't have to revisit the dresser
and again
!altlvlguide
!faq altlvlguide
have you actually gone to a dresser to try a glamour plate?
do this in #kupo-bot-spam if you aren't answering a question
a plate is quite literally a template of your character that you make
and then you can apply the template any time you're in a safe area
you can even assign the template to auto apply every time you switch to that class
so just create your template black mage glam
assign it to black mage
then create your template blue mage glam
and assign it to blue mage
Anyone know why
So once made, they're like cometic versions of gearsets? Can you swap them with a macro command?
yes and yes
u can also link them to gearsets
Ok guess not
so whenever u switch to that gearset it loads that glam plate
idk if there exists a direct command to switch glam plates
we cant know why it got deleted without knowing what it was about

but you can just make two gearsets
and use the macro to switch gearsets
and have a different glamour plate to each gearset
It just said that on the picture
it didnt get deleted, ur question is still there
People apparently dont know the answer and couldnt help
Game probably had a issue with your user files
I wouldn't worry too much about it
Unless it's still happening
Ok thank you
the shiva lamp
Thanks!
iirc it's called diamond chandelier?
Is there a website that tells a resume of ff14 msq ?
a story tl;dr? unlikely or if yes, incredibly abridged
You're better off watching a video of the lore and story on YouTube
Has to be reading
theres not many videos too tbf
if you want to read, play the story
your best bets are the pins in #archived-lore-spoilers
and tracking down the encylopedias
Those are a good read
Is it normal to put a notice for s rank hunts around the world bc its rare?
People will generally call out S ranks to the area that it's in via shout
Very much so for current expansion ones
Can someone please explain plentiful harvest on reaper ? I dont understand how to proc it
After you use Arcane Circle and use a weaponskill (or a teammember under the effect of arcane circle) u get the stacks to use plentiful harvest
Yea if u max out every week around that
Thank you Sash. 20k each week then
While a good read, not always the best source of info since they're written from an eorzean's perspective

no
job gauges are kinda important
I've heard there's some 3rd party stuff that can, but no idea what or where
can also reduce the size to 60%
The one way you can do it is just make 2 hudlayouts
And have a button to activate each
I'm unsure if you can actuslly hide the job guage via hudlayout never tried
Damn that sucks
Sorry wasn't much help
Alright, did try this, but it still clears the dye off when applying the glamour for the Black Mage version. And I definately saved the dyed version.
Check if you linked the correct plate / you're in a city/hub
Nevermind, I didn't actually swap in the new macro was the thing.
You don't actually need a macro for purely gearset+glamplate change
So does this work in towns also, or just the big hubs?
Towns and hubs
And no, but I had one for the thaumaturge icon anyway.
Ah cultured
But you could remove the plates from the macro
And link it via gearset menu
Makes it easier if for some reason you want to change links next time
can trust system be used to run beast tribes and palace of dead etc?
Oh, good point. And there's no way to suppress all the 'cast glamour' spam in the chat window?
No
Currently only ShB and EW MSQ dungeons
Next patch, 2.0 MSQ dungeons
thank you @jade quartz
Chat window you can try putting
/merror off at the start of the macro
Oh wait
Nvm I was thinking of the wrong thing
Yea theres no way to stop the spam iirc unless you tick it off your log settings
how do you fix this constant 90002 errors?
how can i disable the cinematic playing when im afk in main menu
You don’t
can't without plugins
You can go to your character screen

They're currency
You can see your total in the Shared FATE menu

sorry but where is shared fate menu? its not in top right hand corner? i also checked ctrl+c currency tab and its not there? @open coral
They're not in the normal currency tab because they're "limited" currency. Shared FATEs can be found in: Main Menu > Travel > Shared FATEs

fastest way to level desynth?
you really don't need to
Desynth literally everything you get your hands on
you only get higher chances of HQ stuff, not higher chances of getting different stuff
the text on the UI is misleading
are you sure about this?
there was data that being near the ilvl of the equipment gear yields the highest chance for the rare mat
that is what i've been told in this channel
i didnt realize it was chance
also fr?
someone did a test in some reddit post and that's what they found
if the chance to get them doesnt change w skill level then whats the point of levelling desynth
so like if you were hunting idk, hades's rare mat
;
you'd want to be near desynth lvl 470 ish
you get HQ stuff depending on your skill
too high and the chance to get mats instead gets higher or some shit
ahh ok, so regardless i should be levelling up my desynth thing
do we know the chances of getting mats?
That type of drop rng is calculated server side
No way of knowing short of hacking the servers
Anyone claiming to have drop rates only have anecdotal evidence
Oh and the current ex drops aren't even desynth able atm
i was doing zurvan

Do you have to do job quests past 60?
yes
yes
you get one at 70
you do, at level 70
Ah gotcha
and job quests at 80 are required to complete MSQ
Depends on the job
yea i just remembered
I noticed lots of jobs share a lvl 90 skill
none do
Like, deal unaspected damage to the first enemy
And then less damage to the other enemies
that is not the same skill
Or something like that
Maybe it was 80
you might as well say 'i noticed a lot of jobs share a skill "deal a damage to the enemy"'
