LOL IM GONNA CRY do I have to delete both and redownload ff14 then?

one of the tabs has an option to download backup files, after that u go to help and do the restart thingy
if u got gshade, deinstall it and download the newest possible version
Backup index files under help?
What's the restart thingy tho
I just did the backup, already done cuz I had nothing downloaded lol
it clears all possibly modded or old files up to the newest
But wym by restart thingy? 
There's definitely no old mods or anything tho
Yeah I just did the backup then start over and tried opening ff14 again and it says the same thing

mh
Can I just delete textools and reinstall it again?
completely delete textools

I just sold an item that was empty on the MB, and now there are five competing sellers. Even though there hasnt been a sale in over a week. How do they know?
[Insert Shia Labeouf "Magic" meme gif]
Do u guys know where i can get this 2 ITEMS (Katana and the lil glowing flower) or whats there name? THX 😁🤙
The second picture looks like a Glade Flowerpot with maybe Shroud Cherry planted
Hmm ok 🤔 THX 😁👍
is there anything like atlasloot from wow where i can see and try on raid gear etc.
Well you can go to the vendors and try on gear
Gamerescape has base previews of each piece per race/gender, but you'll have to test in game how it does and/or matches with other pieces
blegh. ok thanks
how do i get the evokers set
Do your job quests
it's the level 50 Job quest, so you have a ways to go
how do i put teleport back into my hotbar
drag it from you skill list
WHERE
i dont think im on the right screen
how do i get to skill list
im on actions and traits
Check under general or main commands. It's there somwhere
That is the skill list
how do i do that i dont see general
i found it
Is it normal to be waiting a very long time for a Moogle delivery? I have yet to receive my purchase from this morning still and it’s been several hours
that is unusually long but it can take up to 24h
Np lol
especially if it's an accountwide purcchase
Did you try the request delivery button
is it an accountwide outfit?
did you have to select a character to deliver it to when you purchased it?
relog doesn't do anything
It should be all set
okay so it's not accountwide
Payment was shown as successful
either way, purchases can take up to 24h
I wouldn't stress it until after that time period
do i get the full set or do i have to choose one piece
you get the full set
Because unsurprisingly gear is very important for combat jobs
though you will get all of it except for the chestpiece from the lvl 45 job quest
while the chestpiece is from the lvl 50 job quest
(plus a coffer with the same set but better and in a different colour)
So I've got two monitors set up and I play XIV in borderless. for some reason my game is rending out in 2K, rather than 1920x1080 and I'm getting a performance hit. Is there any way to force Borderless to run at the correct size and framerate?
that is weird, it should match your display resolution
It doesn't and it's odd.
are your monitors 1080p or 1440p?
2K as in like 1440p?
1080p
what monitor is set as your main display?
yeah they're at 1440p
XD
Both monitors are 1080p
sorry, let me rephrase
Both monitors are 1080p. XIv is setting a borderless window resolution of 1440p for some reason
Any insight into which beast tribes offer the most lucrative rewards once you've hit bloodsworn with all of them?
and are these new monitors? did you just install them? did you update their display drivers etc?
Moogles seem to be one of them afaict
The one i'm using as my main screen is new. there are no windows 10 drivers for this monitor and when I did try to install new drivers, it just tried installing an old nividia driver.
Monitor 1, i guess
or better yet, just screenshot this
sure one sec.

@glossy flare
and what selection does the very top option give you?
same size, but it pushes onto the other monitor, where borderless stays on my main screen
huh your resolution is 2560 x 1080?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
you got an ultrawide monitor?
No. Again it;s just a 1920x1080p monitor
long shot
Do you have DPI scaling set to something other than 100% in Windows Display settings?
try setting to full screen, changing to 1920 x 1080, then going back to borderless
Should i ignore every crafting and gathering job until after i finished MSQ?
They keep tempting me with these blue quests
Do whatever you want
you can pick them up, no harm in that, but it is much mor efficient to level them later, yes
but it's also just possibly fun content
maybe you'll like it
good idea, but it doesn't do that. It jumps to 1080p and then immediately back to 2560x1080 when I change it back
Uh don't think so? where can I find this?\
What version of Windows do you have?
10
Settings > System > Display and scroll down to Scale and layout
This setting specifically. It can cause funky behavior in some games
When it's not 100%
It might be that the second monittor is acting as a screen extension..
That's more likely the problem.. and XIv just doesn't know how to deal with that
I'd really rather not play in fullscreen because that's really crappy and I can't alttab well since the game doesn't like that.
Gshade and fullscreen don't work well together.
Hm, I play with borderless window and 3 monitors and don't have that problem
yea mine are usually extend display and it works fine
after you installed the new monitor you ever restarted PC?
I'm out of ideas at this point but maybe try your luck in #952326072542847016
you can force 60 FPS in game too
I could care less if it's rending out wider than it should but what's bugging me is that the framerate is not consistent to what is selected.
whys does the second coil get a savage, but not the others
did you mean why does second coil only one to get a normal mode?
the other two were basically savage lol
oh is that minstrels ballad for the 2nd coil not a savage thing?
lol it was a joke
2nd coil technically only one to get savage
but for the other two, their normal version is basically savage / extreme
oh i see. weird
but i guess they were still figuring out their design philosophy then
the balancing in ARR was pretty bad
yea
now people clear savage in week 1 for all 4 turns
before it was like month 2 or 3 before they clear 1 turn or something
savage 2nd coil is basically what it was "meant" to be, before it got tweaked 
i was looking for it like 5 min but couldnt find it; there was the option to rename the friend list categories... does someone know where i can find it again?
nvm found it
Will the drill weapon of mechanist change its apperance when ur gun has a relic glam on? Or it stays the same 🙏
So im learning whm, because i should of done that instead of going from an 80 scholar lol. Sooo i was looking at the spells and stuff at base. When i unlock cure 2, ddo i use that more or just stick with cure one
cure 1, and the correpsonding spell for each healer, is generally worthless once you get the cure 2 equiv
Assign a friend to a category and right click it in the popup
Oh I missed the next message, nvm
are all the final bosses for the 3rd part of a raid series <name> prime?
no
oracle of darkness, final omega
oracle of darkness also technically is eden's promise
two phases of the same fight
same with omega-m/omega-f
regardless, none of those are called <x> prime
is a12s even called alexander prime?
i thought it was perfect alexander
or am I thinking of a different fight
ah

Is kholusia still the best spot to powerlevel BLU?
Does SE have a live chat support feature?
yes
Tyty
try in ahm araeng as well
i've never tested whether kholusia or ahm araeng is faster, but ahm araeng has a nice spawn
both are good
that's just a common series scheme for Alexander
personally I like kholusia because beach > desert
can i farm mogtomes unsynced with BLU?
not really specific to the raids
unrestrcited, yes. unsynced, no
but unrestricted is assumed when you run BLU anyway
actually... slight correction on that
@pure copper KF: Okay, this is not a “cool” answer, but “Prime” does have a meaning … It’s “Prime.” <laughs> There’s no connection; it’s a simple marking of that entity as the first and foremost of its group. So… Ascian Prime, what you’re looking at is <hand gestures> Asican Prime. for correct reason being "prime"
yeah
Alex is just kinda weird when he's used
because he usually communicates via sub-routine machines
Hmm, so as a low level SAM, the decision to use AOE vs single target seems to be if there are 3 or more targets the AOE does more dmg. My question is, I noticed as you level up you start doing a ton more single target damage, but I don't really see any ramp up in AOE skills. At a certain point does taht number of targets become like 5 or even higher to justify using AOE skills? Or do you basically just never use AOE at a certain point...
also as you level, hopefully your tanks improve and pull larger trash packs
k, i know 3 or more is usuallya key number, i've seen it in other classes, and even other MMOs lol like some golden rule of thumb everyoen follows
like if the tank doesn't aoe packs, you're SoL
keep in mind, when judging AoE skills
you need to time it by the number of enemies you hit
so a 100 pot AoE skill vs 3 enemies is 300pot
ya, only reason I was asking is you start unlocking a ton more single target potency in your rotation, but the AOE potency doesnt go up at all...
It will.
Also if you look at your skills, you'll notice you start getting quite a few AoE counterparts to those skills as well.
lets take SAM then. a 123 combo is... only 780 potency across 3 GCDs
fuga is 90 per target, so at 3 targets, youd be doing 270 per GCD, or 810 across 3 gcds
You including kenki average pot? smh
or Afflatus Misery on whm, which in single-target is a damage loss vs using Glare 3 4 times
its great in aoe
Oh wait this is #questions-and-help sorry, no shitposting
and generally, good tanks pull big when possible
ive w2w'd the basement in haukke manor for example, and thats probably like 10 mobs?
how should I decide what creatures to blow up in Diadem?
What mats you want? Plants or not plants
each mob drops a certain list of mats iirc yeah
You'll see that as well with skills you get later. Either you'll have an AoE skill with deceptively low potency but which progressively adds up to really big numbers as you add more targets hit—such as Shoha 2—or you'll have something that does a high potency attack to "the first enemy hit and XX% less to all remaining enemies"—such as Hissatsu: Guren or Ogi Namikiri.
Monk tends to operate at a very fast GCD tier.
monk is fast
Classes like Machinist and Reaper have periods of slower pace with sudden high-speed bursts in between.
high APm
Ninja can get a bit fast at times as well. Bard and Gunbreaker tend to have a lot of heavy weaving periods.
The switch to the 2.5-second global cooldown can be a bit jarring at first, though.
do i need to be a certain level to get stuff from mogstation
i bought a story skip for an alt and it hasnt arrived in a few hours, ik theres some weird delay rn but im also wondering if my char being new has anything to do with it
are you on a trial account?
nope
did you check your moogle mail?
mail system just being slow
is there a way to limit how many mobs show up on the aggro table?
Anyone know how to fix this bug? All the sudden I can't cast abilities randomly, sometimes I can cast like 5 times in a row and then it stops letting me again. Can always use non targeting abilities but idk why I can't fight sometimes.
logged out and in, closed game too
You're not facing the target
did u disable all the error messages and auto-turn to target when attacking?
Turn auto face target back on
thank you. I didn't realize thats how it worked. Turned that off earlier.
Kinda need to aim at the thing you’re killing
It should always be on basically
In my head I was like "Oh I can turn this off and keep casting vs enemies who are using the look away mechanic" lol
🙂 ty
just slidecast to turn away ez
Auto attacks go through regardless of direction, but eh
If I retreat from Angel halo nightmare will it let me retry?
I forgot to bring my eternal

it's actually the opposite
having the setting ON forces your character to auto turn for all actions
so if you look away and then press the button, it's like you never looked away to begin with
it's very helpful for when you're running away from the boss
Is there a mask like this but without the forehead crystal that any class can use?
ok
Looks like a Wood Wailer's Mask to me
Does anyone know what music this is now that OST is out?

Endwalker Cutscenes Part 2 HERE: https://youtu.be/wSOzhX7-d64
Yes indeed, Endwalker. Patch 6.0 Cutscenes are here!

WATCH Shadowbringers Cutscene Playlist ...
Seems like a different version of Flow
Nah not flow
is it Flow Together
nah, not that
It's actually not flow at all lol
It's a special version of footfalls
what time
is there a lot of endgame content outside the usual raids and dungs?
@ripe hound what timestamp
2:33:47
dungeons aren't really endgame content
but there's tons of different endgames
raiding savage/ultimate is one of them
im thinking more on the more casual side
bozja/eureka, glamour collecting, triple triad, mount farms, crafting...
can u actually collect glamour? wasnt there a cap
Yeah you can collect, but you can't 100% collect it
i mean by cap as in running out of space
Yeah you have a space limit
eh thats sad 😦
400 in the dresser, but when I say "collect" i'm talking specifically about rarer ones
not everyone is gonna have relic weapons or eureka armor
used to be a glamour farmer but in wow
Yeah I don’t hear the exact track on the OST album, at least from my skimming of it.
I think that's just Footfalls' instrumental
Yeah... I really liked this song, but I checked everything on OST too, don't think I heard it either
hmmm... I think it's still a bit different from vanillia footfalls
Yeah
The other song I always wanted to hunt for is

Let the curtains fall upon this. The Final Chapter in the tale of this star.
Patch 6.0 Cutscenes are here!
Patch 6.0 Cutscenes. Enjoy! I will be doing all MSQ Cutscenes for all the patches. Stay Tuned and hit that Sub...
I think it actually is Vanillia Footfalls, just cut a bit differently and played on Infinite loop
that, is just Footfalls
I just really want the sound file to add to my music collection that I listen to when raiding ;w;
Because the standard version of Footfalls begins at a part that is a bit bland... so it isn't really suitable as raiding music ;w;
Also the beginning of With Hearts Aligned
Is this... rythm? motiff? ever used before Endwalker?
The Deng la deng la deng, deng la deng la deng, deng la deng la deng, deng deng deng thing
It was used to represent shadowbringer in the EW trailer
But I think this "thing" was never actually used before EW?
So, I have a question about leveling.
I'm not a big story fan and am enjoying the game whilst skipping cutscenes. I enjoy duties and battling.
I see everywhere that the MSQ is the best way to level, I finished ARR and am halfway through 7th Astral era to HW. Level 55, got those 5 levels from other things though since the 7th Astral quests give almost no xp (and yes, I understand why)
I'm wondering how the MSQ can be the best way to level when I have to do 100 story quests that give no xp in between each expansion which is like a whole day of grinding with cutscene skips. Is it really the fastest way despite the patch quests? Would love to know. Thank you!
It’s easy and you’re gonna do the story anyway
only ARR is that long
Because the MSQ only gives experience during expansion quests.
All patch-quest stuff doesn't give experience because, when they came out, the players were at max level and didn't need any. So you're going to have a lull when you hit those.
The 2.X series just happens to be really really really long.
Also please pace yourself dude, nobody told you to spend the entire day doing the story
I know its easy, Its just time consuming
Like I said, I know why thats the case. I'm contemplating if its faster to skip and level another way considering the time spent doing those.
Im aware
Obviously it going to be faster cause levelling after story is done is piss easy
If you want to skip the story, that's up to you.
Do you guys understand my question though? Doesn't seem like so.
Dial it back a tad.
your question was answered correctly by alla
Level cap msq isn't meant to be used to level
because they were released when that was the level cap
but you will get to level x1 by doing them.
@distant edge
dial what?
Leveling via MSQ implies it's your first character. If it's your first character, everything you will need or want to do is locked behind the MSQ. The MSQ also gives The Largest XP gain—inside each campaign—compared to anything else.
In the patch quests between the campaigns, it gives fuck all because it isn't needed.
I literally said in my question that I'm fully aware of that. That wasn't my question :/
It is the best answer to your question. It is still the fastest way.
Additionally, a large majority of your kit is locked behind job quests, which are in turn locked behind their respective expansion. So if your goal is simply to get to max level as fast as possible, the alt level guide will still help out ... but you will be missing intrinsic parts of your class and it won't matter.
thank you
Yeah I'm not trying to level skip. Definitely want to know my kit.
I'm ... ambivalent about whether or not the game and the leveling process adequately teach the player their kits.
Almost done with the ARR patch quests so I hope so 🙂
yeah that series is a slog
They were filling out two years between re-release and expansion, and the writers were basically working hard to rescue a really generic (not awful, but generic) plot into something actually complex and interesting.
The patch quests are what annoy me cuz it feels like I'm making no progress getting basically no xp and Items I'm not gonna use. Ya know, just not super rewarding rn.
Pushing thru though
think of it this way
it's a great time to do roulettes every day and catch up a 2nd or 3rd job
Hey, sprout here that saw the Behemoth lance and fell in love with it. Is there any way to track when that fate spawns?
!item Behemoth Lance
It's called the Thundercloud I think?
It's a exchanged reward from the drops from the Behemoth FATE.
you can join a hunt discord like Centurio Hunts, or the Faloop discord
They often have call outs for world boss fates like behemoth and such
What do i need to access the diadem?
level 10 in any gatherer
My friend got lvl 19 and he can't do it
did they talk to everyone in the firmament to unlock the diadem
He already did
so what does the diadem entrance NPC say to him?
The NPC for it talks nothing of level requirements, just some lore blabber
then your friend has not talked to everyone in the diadem
tell him to do every
in that immediate area
I see, thanks
did they change the ziggurat aether current location in Gyr Abania at some point?
i remember it used to be near the back of the ziggurat or something
when i went through stb (during 6.0) it was on the middle level iirc
not sure what it was before but probably attributed to reducing the number of aether currents in non-current expacs
yeah i'm going though msq on an alt and it was way easier than i remembered
ohh i see
They did reduce the number of aether currents in non EW areas, so it might just be gone. But if the compass is pointing you there, it might be on a different height.
yeah reduced from 10 to 5, and made them closer to where the msq takes you
that's awesome
huge QoL for real
oh
i conpleted all the beast trial quest that i got im a pixie
any other way to raise the rep?
You mean you've completed the daily quests for the Pixie tribe?
If so, then just wait until tomorrow.
ooh okok what time it resets?
11am est
!daily
Tho iirc it's off by an hour
It is, yes.
Can you make someone a tenant for an apartment?
no
Is there a typhoon gold saucer heat map or smth?
Do I need an active subscription to register Endwalkers to my account?
It's so weird because I don't have the register expansion entry on the mog-station..
Do you remember if there is supposed to be an included subscription-period or free-play period included in the pre-purchase standard ed of Endwalkers? I can't find any product info beyond my expansion and bonus item codes..
Did you not register the base game?
@viscid moth i saw this years ago, not sure how accurate it is but here ya go https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/4lxsr8/typhon_gate_research/
Also no, Expansions never give free days
I have the base game and all previous expansions registered yes
Hey everyone. I'm level 57 BLM what rotation should I be using? I'm trying to learn how to play better but theres so much to consider as far as stacks, umbral hearts, Fire Ice or Thunder 1,2,3 and all the other skills. Its starting to feel overwhelming trying to read through reddit and everything but I know it shouldn't be this much confusion.
!faq blmleveling
oooo thank you!
Does someone have a high quality image of the allagan tomestones of poetics? I'm trying to find one but didn't get one
and where does manafont and flare fit into all that?
Once you hit 60 things will start to smooth right out. Right now you're in a weird period where all your spells work oddly together.
@verbal lake for more detailed information, weskalber on YouTube has a Endwalker beginner BLM guide
Long video, but very good
ahh so its supposed to feel kinda clunky atm?
ok thanks I'll check it out
Hey sorry k asked this earlier but I forgot to check. I’m learning to heal for the first time as a whim
Manafont is usually used at the end of Fire phase once you have Fire 4 so you can fit an extra Fire 4 (and eventually a second Despair) into the sequence. Flare is part of your AoE rotation; you can use it in place of Despair to cap off Fire phases before getting Despair because it'll use up the rest of your mana as well, but once you get Despair, that's the better option.
While Flare and despair both drain all your remaining health mp
Flare shouldn't sub in for despair
mana
No
Don't use cure 1 after getting cure 2
Flare took too long to cast
No spell drains your health lol
Cure 2 is more health in a single cast
a friend having this issue,any posssible causes?
Cure 1 is favored over cure 2 in highly specific scenarios where you need to conserve MP for a highly prolonged fight (even accounting for using various MP recovery tools)
Tldr: use cure 2, cuz more heal in 1 spell cast
Got it
See I was told to do scholar because I had summoner to 80 but XD I feel it’s too hard
I was enjoying the sets and working with tinberties
*tonberries
Eh

Scholar is just resource management
Takes practice
I never really healed and I’m still hesitant
Unless you study a job beforehand extensively
Red mage is the only dos class I refus to do
Even then, you still need to build up the habits and muscle memory
Unironically rdm is simple af
RDM is basically a flowchart lol
It's honestly the most boring caster tbh
RDM is pretty flashy though
BLM is extensively Megumin
Summoner is Summoner
Rdm is just... There
Swords and magic
But we're getting into discussions
Yea sorry
#beginner-lounge if you wanna keep talkin' about jobs tho 
And practice practice practice
Yea I know. Just wanted to ask for the whm thing
No worries m8
Cure 2 cuz more heal in a single spell cast (obviously don't overheal)
Uhm what is the best way to get to 80 from..73 as a dps without rolulettes btw? Someone said Borja
#healer-lounge if you need more tips on healing
Opening up more opportunities for you to do damage.
Got it
Damn. Okie cause I never touched it and don’t know anything about it
Or dungeons if you got a healer/tank friend
It's basically fate spam with broken actions
Tldr fate farming
The ones in bojza give alot of xp
Ok cool.
Example of how stupid some of the setups in bozja are
Compared to regular overworld fates
It’s just a matter of trying to finish the whole alliance raid stuff
Note: Blood weapon and Delirium are a 60s cooldown
Reduced to 15s with the setup 
Ok thanks
Blood rage is nutty
More or less trying to get the classes I wanna get to 90 up to 80 for my xp buff
8x damage with the right setup on Gunbreaker
See I feel I did a bad idea doing drk to 90
Or just this beautiful DPS increase by entering burst and proccing my Lost Actions
TL;Dr
Bozja is fun
PvP matches give more points than NPCs, you have 20 matches to get your high score
what part about invitationals dont you get
drawing with a player is more points than beating an NPC i think, so theres some incentive there to pvp
usually by the end i think youll have to pvp if you wann aplace top 10 or anything
Tx for the answers. It's a pain to set things up for this game. Had to search for 15 min to figure out how to redownload, password didn't work, navigate to get sub going, and not figuring out what expansions were active. Turns out I'd gone and registered Endwalkers when I got it back in Desember, no wonder the option was gone. 😆
Ah well, finally downloading. Tx again 🙂
Enjoy
Anyone know when the current Moogle Trove ends? I know it's next patch, but when is that? 😛
Predicted 12th
We'll presumably get the release date next live letter in 8 days
I'm thinking 16th myself.
Patches are always Tuesday
Awesome. Thanks all. Been slackin, but I want that wolfy. 😛
So 12th or 19th, and patches are usually like 11 or so days after part 2 ll
That's still sorta early april tbh
So 12th is more likely

you can freely skip
No
cutscene after will play
Skip credits at leisure
Am I missing something or us Lucid Dream the only MP regen that SMN has?
iirc Aetherflow stuff used to give MP back..
I've been lvling it in bozja and I'm just using DPS stuff and running out which is an odd feeling after playing BLM & RDM to max...
Rdm doesn't have any other mp regen either so
yeah but for some reason I never get below ~7000 usually
SMN I'm just playing and suddenly I'm at like ~2k and I'm like "oh shit gotta used Lucid... for some reason.."
You should’ve used it way earlier than that
Rdm Has the melee combo to not spend mp for abit
oh definitely, apparently, it's the first non-healing class I've had to though which makes it seem odd to me
figured I must have been missing something important, but I guess not lol.
8
aight cool.
hello, is possible for a paladin to take aggro off the main tank (dark knight) by spamming clemency in a level 60 duty
If they have stance up prolly
even if the drk is doing the optimal level 60 rotation?
Healing generates like half a point of aggro per point healed before modifiers
Welp
is that true for all the tank ranged attacks
Yeah
Thought that linked to the Reddit wiki, but the ranged moves have a 10x multiplier or so
Which stacks with the tank stance
so one tank by just spamming ranged attacks can out aggro the other tank doing an optimal rotation if both have tank stance on?
!action tomahawk
10x means that this is effectively 1,500 potency worth of enmity
Normal rotations won’t beat that.
Though it brings up the question of why you’re wanting to spam the ranged move.
Obviously, please don't spam your ranged attack just to be top tank...
But anyway back to the other question, why the fuck is the pld spamming clemency
im not. but i was doing an optiaml dark knight rotation and wondering why the other tank kept taking aggro from me
Provoke spam probably
That’s also 2,000 potency of effective enmity every 30 seconds
And setting them as top aggro
Some people just aren’t aware that spamming provoke is not a thing you should do
Or they just REALLY want to take damage from the boss
or they were inting
im used to being the #1 on enmity list in most duties so it was just weird, cuz i had tank stance and was doing the rotation
But since you're asking the question about if it's possible due to it happening, it would seem that you already have your answer.
it's times like these i wish there was a duty replay option
or i had that program which shall not be named
What, ACT?
So why not
The one that can be named whenever?
We don’t care, SE does. So don’t tell them
We literally have this
i thought we abide by SE rules
!faq act
Advanced Combat Tracker (ACT) can be used to view and record combat in real time to see player damage, healing, etc. ACT logs can then be uploaded to FFLogs to compare your performance with other players.
Please note this software is technically against the FFXIV Terms of Service and should only be used for personal improvement. Mentioning ACT/Parsing in-game, particularly to harass other players, is likely to result in punishment against your Square Enix account.
Lmao
Using third party software is against the TOS. However, as Yoshida has said on multiple occasions, they're not going to invade your files to find out if you're using it, nor will they track you down, kick down your door, and nail you to a tree outside as a lesson to other players.
Just don't use it to harass people.
Because then they'll ban you twice.
you seem to also forget this is not an official server and discussion of third party tools is fine.
We're not gonna encourage wanton flaunting of tos. Some dude straight up asked me to play his account and clear uwu for him, I told him to fuck off.
Grayer stuff like act and visual mods. Eh its not harming anyone unless you're being a dick and se will slam you for that anyways
is the SE policy regarding parsers a pretty standard policy across most MMOs....ie dont ask dont tell....and ban for harassment
its that way in game
doesn't apply to this discord
that said though still can't be an asshole in this discord about people's parses
and if you're bitching about someone fucking up, you have to hide the name
it true tho
Yeah witch hunts ain’t cool
i dunno, i rely a lot of enmity list when im playing dps....i just try to be right below tank in enmity in every duty im in....and i feel ashamed when i do not
Pretty sure healing generates more enmity than dps
emnity list isnt even remotely accurate judge of dps
So a cure bot in a dungeon is probably #2 enmity at all times
so healer in 8 player duties will usually gain more enmity because their AOE abilities heals 8 people, as compared to 4 in regular duties?
And they're not a good player
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
some jobs also have very bursty openers
I don't know all the maths
and then fall in emnity because their consistent dps isn't enought to warrant high emnity
im pretty sure overhealing specifically generates more enmity
I tend to rip enmity easily playing rdm in dungeons, cuz most tanks slap once and run off, doing nothing til the next pack. Whereas I have fleche contre sixe, swift and up to 2 accelerated impacts
And that's just when I can't keep up via slide casting
To say nothing of all the insta cast bullshit summoner gets
I say bullshit cuz that job plays closer to physical ranged nowadays
Anyone else having issues with mail in Aether?

it can take up to 24 hours.
it's not an issue, it's just general load.
Damn, I've never had to wait this much, oh well
if you don't receive it within 24hrs send a ticket/email to support
You were told to allow up to 10 business days
But that's mostly just legal ass covering
the rule is 24hrs, typically. i've never heard of the 10 day rule.
That's for redelivery

Whats the min elemental level to be able to get rewards from pazuzu in eureka? Entered as a level 10 and got the low level reward warning immediately 
so recently I had sent an email with my passport to change my birthdate so i could access my account details and they said the birthdate had been changed but i still can't get past the "enter birthday" thing and it keeps giving me invalid date :((
do i send another ticket or reply to the message they sent

Hello! How long can a player play on unsubscribed "Free Trial" without base game?
forever
unlimited
There are places saying "Forever" while others say 30 days
anything that isn't "forever" is outdated info
The current trial is infinite-ish
free trial is unlimited duration
you're limited to level 60 though

From the... Horses mouth I believe is the saying
when it comes to new hair styles, is there a general way of knowing if we'll get new ones or are they released randomly?
Whenever SE wants
I see, thank you. Hope we get some more masculine hair styles soon
at this point we're due for long ones, we had a long period of short hairstyles
oh really? RIP. I just think they've all been for girls
but it is what it is
would still be cool to see what it is
And CEs
zadnor isn't any faster on leveling but you get significantly more mettle
Zadnor is identical in xp
Only difference is mettle gain
Thiccc. Mettle gain

Augmented crafted gear can't be pentamelded right?
no
but it's better to augment it
idk the math specifically but main stat heavily outweighs substat
what does monk use perfect balance/form shift on at the 50-60 range
i just dragon kick bootshine spam
Yeah, 3 opo seems best
is the dungeon Solemn Trinity really a long Que dungeon? Man I can't progress my guildhest without finishing this one and I have been Q'ing for 45mins+
Do people still run dal in zadnor or do they just do CEs constantly
Guildhests dead as fuck
man rip to new players like me
Guildhests are not really something you need to do. They are mostly braindead and the things they are supposed to teach you are taught to you in many other places
As Vakarian said, Guildhests are optional and not important at all. You can ignore them completely
In fact there are many new players that don't even realize they exist
oh really? But what about my daily roulettes? aren't they somehow connected?
Daily roulettes are important yeah, but guildhests gives so little xp that people generally don't care about it unless they queue as tank/healer
you never get guildhest daily pops
the only people queueing guildhests are people farming commends and people who got matched through mentor roulette
and the occasional new player who fell for the noob trap
Or trying to get that last sliver of xp that u're missing and are too lazy to find side quests/FATES lol
I mean, if I don't do my guildhest, wont it be Q'd in duty roulettes? Acckk im confused
what?
Hmm? What do u mean?
guildhest duty roulette is worthless
im trying to find the words
^
If you really want to unlock guildhest roulette you can do them solo once you are further into the game and outlevel them
So for example, if I don't finish my Solemn Trinity dungeon, is it not gonna pop in duty roulettes? Did I word it right im just confused how the duty roulettes work
solemn trinity is not a dungeon
^
the only way you ever will get it is if you queue guildhest roulette
which no one does
ooohh
more like... tutorials
so it doesn't matter if I finish it or not?
unless, in like 2000 gameplay hours from now, you want to qualify for mentor roulette
pretty much the only reason
how2make ffriends ingame x-x
"friends"
I thought you will only get access to duty roulettes if you finish the guildhests
Which duty roulette?
there are several different duty roulettes
There are several types of roulettes
guildhest has nothing to do with any of them except the "guildhest" one
Leveling, 50/60/70/80, Trial, Normal, Alliance, etc
Oohhh
None of which is unlocked from doing Guildhest
Yes this is the question I've been trying to spit out of my tongue omg
im sorry english is not my native
and thanks. Bout to give up on this class coz of the long Que
Nah, feel free to ignore guildhest
unless u're like... missing 3% to level
then might as well use it to get that tiny sliver of xp lol
the queue is gonna take longer than a fate
mm tank
Yes it does. But it has an arrow up reward and it resets. So I thought it was needed for me to do it
if you want comms, its a fast and easy way to get some honestly
You don’t have to do any dailies you don’t wanna
@toxic coral Tip though. When you reach lv 30. Start doing Frontline roulette daily for xp
It gives a ton of xp. (at lv 30, it levels u up by 2-3 levels, and at higher levels, at least half your xp bar)
It is PvP yeah, but the FF14 community understands that people do it for the xp only, so it doesn't matter if you perform poorly there (as long as u don't afk or purposely die)
Frontline roulette got it. And screw guildhests
Um I have a rather significant issue
Roulettes are good if you need the currency from it, the tomestones of poetics you need from time to time for gear. The xp is nice for alts, but your main levels just fine doing MSQ only
I'm returning to FFXIV and reinstalling the game now after having to take a break for about 6 or so months, I pre-ordered Endwalker and got the earrings and everything ingame but it says on my Mogstation I don't own Endwalker, and I don't see any registration code in any of my emails
I didn't get to play Endwalker on release and I'm only now returning months after it released even though I preorderd
If I finish installing the game and enter will it register properly or was the code sent somewhere else
Ah, i've had the same issue. Apparently they had problems with Endwalker sales and many people including myself didn't even had their banks deduct the funds meant to purchase the game
so even though u purchased the game, u didn't actually purchased the game
Double check if your bank did or didn't deduct the funds required for EW, and if it didn't, it means u'll need to buy the game again

Another way to check is your purchase history on the store page
check if u did in fact purchase EW or not
(I also got the earrings and etc, but it still didn't count as actually buying the game due to the store error or something)
I looked back and yeah I was charged by Scalefast on 11/16 for $40
Hmm, you might have to contact customer support then
What IL is 'recommended' for beating HW Savage Trials? As either DNC or RPR
max level
Is there a way to view the people you were just in a raid with but were in a different alliance?
580
What was the way I was supposed to receive the code for endwalker?
nope, you usually don't have to care about them unless both of their healer are dying
you can select them manually though
ok, too bad. We had a troll tank in the other alliance that kept provoking the boss to screw everyone up :T
it's easier to just tell your tank to turn the stance off
I received an email saying "The Endwalker full game code will be available in your Square Enix Store account on the release date, December 7th"
they werent provoking because they wanted to tank, they were provoking it so they could run it around and point its attacks at the groups
Do other alliances not show up in Contacts?
nope
Is that in my email or square enix account login
yeah, you could report the person
Square Enix store account
(which is different from your FFXIV account, but probably linked in some way, because Square is really bad at this sort of thing)
Is buying the Kirin gear for starting Eureka still worth while?
Buying a Video Game (Savage)
If you intend to do Eureka, 110%.
Ohhhh, I found the key. Thank you so much
Do SCH & WHM actually use Cure/Psysick after they get the trait at 85? Or is it still a bad idea to use them?
No, you absolutely shouldn't
Is it because you can meld it and still get the stats? Since it i300?
Elemental bonus
ok lol, I figured as much yet they still keep putting traits in there like we should...
I'll buy some Cryptic Seals then and go get one.
You stop using Physick, Cure 1 and Benefic and Diagnosis when you unlocked the upgraded version
they'll cripple your healing potency per gcd
The nature of how elemental bonus is Kirin is a big boost for anemos but gets smaller as you progress
I know thats why we used to do it, wasnt sure if the trait magically made them worthwhile to use or not lol
And melding my other gear doens't matter bc it's going to be sync'd?
It's a trap
well, maybe things will change in 7.0.... lol
But given you're synced to 300, kirin's remains bis through Eureka
ty for clarificatio
Oh, so u found your key?
hmm, a typo.. clarificatio seems like it could be a name for an AST spell though...
Great
Yeah, none of your other gear really matters as long as it's >300
I heard something about speed belt?
Yeah was in the square enix store account
yeah, just meld the kirin gear
There's a speed belt ring and earring but they're both horribly expensive and very small buffs
Should I get a i300 gear set for this?
No
lol the ring is like 20m +-
Providing you have higher ilvl gear to begin with
Yeah they're also miniscule buffs
Whereas kirin's is like an immediate noticable jump in Eureka power
I plan on spending quite a bit of time here, just checking bc I'm still like brand new there lol.
I'm learning Eureka and Reaper at the same exact time so it's a bit of information overload.
I like to prepare right though, so wante dto go through all this first.
I wouldn't personally recommend the ring/earring for anything but completionism
So I wanted to experience the zone, go through the storyline, and get maybe 1 or 2 relics.
I've completed the entirely of Eureka including ba many times and have neither nor do I feel any need to
And honestly would probably sell them if they did drop for me

Hey so I'm level 41 bard and want to reroll as a Dark knight. Is it wise to reroll this early?
You literally can't become a drk without being 50 on another job first
you can't even unlock dark knight until you beat ARR
(unless you buy a job boost)
Oohhh.
until you get to HW
yeah they are not going anywhere
But yeah if you want to be a different job, you don't need to reroll anyway
Also literally 0 point to making a new guy
U can only unlock DRK once u reach the HW expansion. Meaning at least lv 50 and completing the entire ARR MSQ
Reaching lv 50 however also unlocks Red Mage and Samurai
it's a lot more than just 50 FYI
you have to start heavensward
Yeah, 50 is the absolutely barest minimum
very likely you'll be 60 or higher with 1 class by the time you get there
what about reaper?
lv 70
I see
need EW tho
only Dark Knight, Machinist, and Astrologian requires both lv 50 AND an MSQ progress requirement
Every other class just requires one class at a certain level and having access to their relevant expansion
Level 50 + Purchased FF14 complete edition: Red Mage and Samurai
Level 60 + Purchased FF14 complete edition: Gunbreaker and Dancer
Level 70 + Purchased FF14 EW: Reaper and Sage
I mean
you can't buy those expacs separately
Hmm... technically true
Technically a returning player could have only earlier expansions
sure but this person is clearly not a returning player
Or could be like my weird friend who is still subbed but hasn't bought ew
Despite having finished shb msq
And still actively playing the game
Were the wowhead people still working on that new ffxiv version of wowhead? I haven't heard anything about it in quite a while..
What's wowhead?
it's a data collection site for WoW
it's significantly better than any other site that FFXIV has
So like a wikia?
of sorts, sure
I thought FF14 had plenty already though? Even if they're all seperate and all over the place
the biggest thing about wowhead is that players can leave comments on certain things
like FF14 has like 3 wikia-like sites alone lol
wowhead is a database website
all of ffxiv's sites are trash compared to what WoWhead is
yeah, why do we need a site like wowhead?
more like gamerescape than a wikia tbh
That's sort of the problem.. ff14 has multiple sites, each of which does certain things well and certain things badly or not at all
Sorry, not a WoW player, so i don't know what WoWhead is like
exactly
Because wowhead is basically a catch all site
personally I want wowheads 'dressing room' feature for ffxiv.
Whereas wowhead just sort of does everything, generally very thoroughly
its very convenient
instead of having several different websites to look at various things
does the bonus GC from roulette benefits from seals bonus+15%?
imagine if there was a site that had every glamour, a 3d model previewer, every questline with player comments on bugs and obscure hints, with every single item ever made including ones that were removed, that also had per-patch data and updates
iirc yes it does
I'm like "what AST weapons look good on my character.." and while ffxivcollection has some of the models, they are only visible from the one static angle, and you cant customize anything else
you can quite literally go to wowhead for literally anything about wow
but anyway off topic
you're lucky if someone even posts a pic of what an item looks like for ffxiv sites
^
thanks!!
can someone do the kupo command for 3rd party launcher
Wowhead is also in my experience far far faster
!faq xivlauncher
Gamerescape and TC both have weird performance issues
yeah wowhead has been streamlined in every regard, including speed, for over a decade. All the ffxiv sites on the other hand are running on literal hamster-power
it has its own set of issues
but for the most part, having a site like wowhead would overall be a boon
whats the term "alt" in this game? I have been seeing it in forums/reddit mostly. should I be worried switching my class? will it be costly?
class switching is free. you can change them whenever you want
you just need to unlock the class, and it has its own level that you have to increase
so I must have my own set of gears for the class?
sort of?
uuhh I'm a bard and might switch to a tank
If it fits the role, it can be used
There are definitely gears that are job exclusive to a single class, but there are also 'catch all' gears that are like "for all healers" that you'll be using more than anything
I mean no not switch
you would need different gear for different roles yes
Dex gear does not fit tanks
You'll start at job level 1, you'll get gear as you level.
since bard is a physical ranged job, the kind of gear it uses is going to be different for tanks
Says you. Obviously never played a Dex build before. Next you'll tell me bleed builds suc- oh wait wrong game

I see I see. Thank you for the answers. I love this channel
There are a few gear sets that are great to keep for alts while you're leveling <50, such as Foestrikers for melee DPS classes (maybe its for ranged phys DPS too?), Acolyte, Battle Mage, Infantry, etc. So keep those until you've leveled all the relevant classes past them. Then at 50, 60, 70, and 80, there are 'poetics sets' you can buy that will comfortably keep you good until 7 levels after wearing them (57, 67, 77, 87) that you'll want to keep for your other classes as well.
5 levels
Also for under 50, you can usually buy the non-HQ (high quality) gears from the vendors in the town respective to where you unlocked the class (such as Lancers in Gridania)
You can replace them at 5 levels if you have the stuff for it though, but you'll still be fine at 7 levels too.
base class at lvl 1 for ARR, expac jobs start already at a specified level
Lol no, not if you’re running dungeons you ain’t
Poetics gear is 100% fine at x7 levels
I mean, poetics gear is fine until the last dungeon of an expac
...anyways, poetics stuff is worth keeping, and as I mentioned for the <50 stuff, keep them as well until you've leveled all the alt classes that use that gear as well. AND THEN STILL keep at least the one set that you'll likely use on your retainer as they need gear too.
then the minilvl goes up
It's kind of awkward for a tank in x9 dungeons, but nothing that can't be worked around fairly easily even there
can PoD be done via trusts? thx
No
so PoD must be done with other players right?
No, you can do it solo
At that point it's about challenge, not an effective method though
Provided you have enough Aetherpool to live
is it worth getting into PoD nowadays?
@toxic coral ALSO! Make sure to do at least one set of the 'role quests' at the inn in Gridania/Limsa/Uldah at the NPC called 'The Smith'. It will reward you with a 'Brand New Ring' which will increase the EXP gain for all combat classes that wear it by 30% until level 31.
PotD is great for leveling every class under lvl 58.
though tanks/healers tend to prefer leveling at 'highest capable dungeon' spam because they have short queue times.
what level should I do this?
as soon as you can, idr if there's a level requirement for it
yeah you'll be fine, you just need to get the ring the one time and use it on any class thats under 31
Depends on what you are looking for. You can get marketable items, achievements and other stuff. Some people enjoy the content. Its also a good way of leveling dps alts under certain circumstances
thank you
More stuff:
Friendship Circlet (headgear) gives +20% EXP until you hit 26, and you get this from recruiting another player to the game
EXP Earring (expansion dependent) which you may have gotten from pre-order, increases EXP by 30% until you hit 81 (for the EW pre-order earring)
Eat food, gives +3% EXP while you have the food buff
Join an FC, they usually have +10% EXP buff active
All of these things stack.
You can increase the FC buff to 15 using an aetherial wheel
Or if your FC is broke
You can get scrolls from weekly squadron with the same effect
wait how would I recruit another player to the game?
!faq raf
is there a way in a macro to auto start synthisis of a food?
that way instead of pressing start syn everytime I can just press a button and itll do the entire synthisis in one button?
You can’t macro mouse clicks or nothing
