You wear them for a quest but they're no obtainable for players to keep

glossy flare
#

no way for them to know

flat torrent
#

Cause I died twice because he got ressed and didn't provoke, the dance partner didn't use DP and I didn't say anything about that I think I just asked a very normal question so Idk what the kick was for

#

Ahhh fair

#

Yeah..

junior walrus
warm snow
#

Can't member it's near the studium tho

#

Make sure you do the lunchbox side quest by the aetheryte btw

junior walrus
#

lunchbox?

warm snow
#

There's a lunchbox on a bench that's a side quest

junior walrus
#

robust gust
#

Uhm regarding Scholar's Fey illumination and Dissipation. Does the healing magic buff includes all heal or only gcd heals aworryHmm

robust notch
#

#
**Zoe** : lvl 56 SGE (120.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

#

See how Dissipation just says healing magic potency, while Zoe specifies that it has to be a spell

#

Oh right I should ping @robust gust But yes, all heals

tame crow
#

hi does anyone know where i can ask for help leveling a job or class

gritty oracle

Blus can't do leves, right?

Combat leves are just hot garbage

#

What are the common ways to find a static group to try out savage raiding?

vast ferry
#

How long do relic quesrlines typically take

warm snow
#

Depends on the relic

#

They are meant to be endgame grinds tho

merry merlin
warm snow
#

Erc is my goto for chaos and light

vast ferry
#

So not worth it just for glams then?

warm snow
#

Depends how much you want the gam

#

I have 75% of the relics in the gamr

#

It is the true endgame

twilit arch
#

most relics these days can be done in like a week or so

vast ferry
#

Relic questlunes seem pretty long looking at the wiki

twilit arch
#

less depending on how much you feel like buckling down to grind it out

warm snow
woven meteor
#

thanks for the help :)

leaden ginkgo
#

does having an overleveled gathering profession ever stop making story quests really easy

warm snow
leaden ginkgo
#

being able to just walk through everyone to get to the objective kinda busted

twilit arch
#

again depends on how much you're willing to grind

#

even eureka

flat sage
#

Does anyone recognises what outfits these are?

pulsar escarp
#

songbird on right

covert marlin
#

is there a way to 'suicide' on purpose in combat with the final boss in a dungeon, I forget to equip my relic weapon before starting it

flat sage
#

Oof, any idea what the arms and weapon is? @pulsar escarp

pulsar escarp
#

stop attacking and start standing in shit

#

never seen weapons like that before personally but the arms on the housemaid are part of the set

covert marlin
oblique skiff
#

honestly it's gonna take forever to kill yourself for zodiac weapon omegalul

pulsar escarp
#

yeah but if you're desperate.. weigh up if it would take longer to run the dungeon again or die

oblique skiff
#

only takes like 4min

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

not that much of a time loss

pulsar escarp
#

maybe they might have seen stuff I haven't

#

or someone might answer later here

heavy wadi
#

i'd suspect those are modded at first glance bc i don't recognize them

#

or they may be relic stages

pulsar escarp
#

yeah but I'm not putting it beyond that

#

just by the clear fact the char is modded a little I'd assume other assets are too

twilit arch
#

@flat sage i think one of them is replica high allagan guillotine

#

and the other is probably another replica high allagan weapon

heavy wadi
#

i believe kael is correct

#

both dyed pink

flat sage
#

That isn't a WHM thing then, ack

lime pewter
#

Fellas, Limbal Rings, will I be able to change them after I make this character or--

twilit arch
#

yes

lime pewter
#

Okay good.

oblique skiff
wheat plume
#

for dancer, how can i get flourishing starfall? I'm reading all the actions' description but I can't find which activates it

twilit arch
#

!action Devilment

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Devilment** : lvl 62 DNC (120.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Increases critical hit rate and direct hit rate by 20%.
Duration: 20s
Additional Effect: Party member designated as your Dance Partner will also receive the effect of Devilment

wheat plume
vast ferry
#

why do i have to wait 30 minutes instead of 10 for abandoning the duty

flat sage
#

Another question but

#

Can someone please explain the joke?

#

I main WHM but I do not understand this

twilit arch
#

basically macrocosmos is stupidly strong spell that can deal with the mechanic in the picture very easily

#

whereas the whm has to basically do more work

twilit arch
vast ferry
#

it literally says 10 in the exit window

twilit arch
vast ferry
#

so the window is objectively wrong

modest igloo
flat sage
twilit arch
vast ferry
#

if you want a different version of a relic weapon for your glam than your current one

warm snow
vast ferry
#

the game autofills almost instantly

warm snow
#

Se sees it as you griefing people, regardless of role

vast ferry
#

yeah that window i missreaf

twilit arch
#

because that's not saying you'll get a 10 min penalty, that's saying you left a premade party before 10 minutes have passed

warm snow
vast ferry
#

every time i've seen someone leave an instance they get replced in less than a minute

vast ferry
#

doesn't griefing imply i did it just to be an asshole

warm snow
#

If you want to get into semantics. Se sees it as you deliberately inconveniencing other players in multiplayer content

#

For which you are being punished

#

Doesn't matter if the role is filled in 10 seconds or 10 minutes. You've potentially stopped these 3+ other players from enjoying the game

pulsar escarp
#

it's more the other things it has to keep track of with bursts and buffs

vast ferry
#

okay i was being a bitch for ditching them but i really didn't want to be forced to run a dungeon i didn't need to with a tank that wasn't using their defensive cooldowns

warm snow
#

There's always vote abandon

#

You can't control other people

pulsar escarp
#

It's up to you if you'd rather take a penalty for thirty minutes or suffer with it

#

I often choose to go do something else for thirty.

warm snow
#

Anyways not the place to discuss this

vast ferry
#

you try healing a tank the tries to wall to wall without defensive cooldowns

warm snow
#

This is why the system exists

warm snow
#

People suck

twilit arch
#

Ok cool

warm snow
#

I put up with it

#

Or I go fishing

twilit arch
#

like go take this elsewhere

warm snow
twilit arch
#

cos honestly its not really the place to shit on them, either kats

sudden dock
#

do hunt marks ever expire?

twilit arch
#

no

vast ferry
#

well i've gotta do some laundry anyways so might as well do that while i'm waiting

warm snow
#

Technically no

#

But there's new ones daily

#

And b ranks are weekly

rain flower
#

severe nimbus
#

anyone have any advice for boosting crafting? I'm trying to catch the sawfish but I don't think my gathering is high enough

ancient heron
#

So assuming someone buys the platinum eternal bonding plan and then I get the free one, I know the ceremony itself gets downgraded to the free plan, but does the person still get the items he paid for?

odd wraith
#

Do insides of apartments differ? Like default uldah apartment from default limsa?

twilit arch
#

because you're both on the free plan then

twilit arch
vast ferry
#

how do i unlock replica relics

faint flare
#

progress the relic far enough and a vendor unlocks

twilit arch
#

for the ARR relic, you need a completed zeta to buy replicas. for the others, you need to basically get to a certain step of the relic chain (usually early-mid point) to unlock the npc who sells it

faint flare
#

depends which it is for when it unlocks

vast ferry
#

hmm i see ty

jovial quarry
pine pier
#

hi.

severe nimbus
faint flare
#

that's the main of levelling gathering in general

jovial quarry
#

Yeah it’ll be much faster

faint flare
#

don't forget ocean fishing every 2 hours

pine pier
#

im a introvert who wont be going out of the house for a while due to my job of being a programmer. its all remote and stuff.
i would like to know if i can make friends on this game? is the community good?

severe nimbus
#

I've been doing leves but I feel like I can't rest until I complete this challenge y'know

severe nimbus
robust crow
#

the community is good but it's more about how much effort you put forward in making friends

pine pier
robust crow
#

join a guild, interact with them, add people you match with, etc.

#

that's funny actually, I have friends I still talk to that I met over overwatch

severe nimbus
#

if you can survive the overwatch community then you should easily be able to find friends in this game lol

pine pier
#

well... not a lot of people enjoy talking to me so im screwed anyway lol.

#

gotta find some grass in a local park or something.

robust crow
#

I'm sure you'll be able to find friends

#

most people are friendly

pine pier
#

alrighty. thanks for the insight

#

its really hard to find people who has the same interests as you outside of a business social group. and those ones will always be interested in more money. not having fun while doing your job

robust crow
#

I mean, if you're looking to find friends in ffxiv

#

it doesn't take any more effort than joining a guild and talking in guild chat

#

and if the guild doesn't have the kind of people you want to interact with, just leave and join the next one

warm snow
robust crow
#

send friend requests to players you liked when doing dungeons

#

follow up and message/invite them to do more shit

#

idk it's a social game and friends grow on trees, but you have to pick them

atomic jewel
#

is trying out blue mage a good idea?

robust crow
#

depends what you want out of blue mage? they aren't a regular class

#

you'd need to go out and get powerleveled to max and go hunt down all the spells you need to learn

raven lantern
#

used to queue for 5 min for normal 1st-4th circle thinkfish taking ~20 min now per circle, did it die?

faint flare
#

it is Saturday

raven lantern
#

i've been queuing on the same time on sats 😳

faint flare
#

its also like week 12 or whatever so

raven lantern
#

yea fair

#

i guess i'll try to q during weekdays closer to reset

#

warm snow
#

It's a level 79 msq iirc

fresh jasper
#

The Light of Inspiration

sudden dock
#

are hunt rewards based on party or individual participation?

#

/emnity

warm snow
#

Idk, but it's hard to get max rewards without a party

twilit arch
#

A/S ranks operate like fates, if you're in a party its party generations, but you still need to have atleast hit the mob once to get credit

#

which is why if you're not in a party, its pretty hard to get full credit (assuming you're doing shb/ew hunts)

sudden dock
#

yeah i was just wondering if i should be going as tank with stance on or i can be good as dps

#

in a party

twilit arch
#

doesnt matter, ultimately, but easier to generate enmity with tank/healer

leaden ginkgo
#

can you unlock the glamour items from the fashion report shop by getting under 100%? I don't want to spend so much on dyes

raven sage
#

You just need a cumulative amount of points

#

So it'll take longer but doing just the 80 points is still fine

rich moss
#

i'm trying to find the name of a specific bgm track from xiv. i'm pretty sure it played in other parts of the game before endwalker, but the only moment in the game i remember it playing was in endwalker when (spoilers) ||you're tracking down meteion right after she connects to her shared consciousness||. you can hear it here: ||https://youtu.be/TK7Gd11M_ag?t=7355||. anyone know what song this is? (it's at 2:02:35 in the video)

Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker is the fourth expansion pack to Final Fantasy XIV, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) developed and published by Square Enix for Microsoft Windows, macOS, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5. It will be released in December 2021, over two years after Shadowbringers, the previous expansion. Its pro...

#

where under achievements do you check how many mentor roulettes you've ran

wheat plume
#

how can i get endtide aethersand from a fish? desynth?

#

i dont have fisher class, but the fish is cheaper in market than the endtide aethersand

warm snow
#

You have to do aetherial reduction

#

Which is desynth collectables

#

Which are untradeable

wheat plume
#

first time i hear about aetherial reduction, what's that?

warm snow
wheat plume
#

with desynth collectables, u mean regullar collectables that I get only with desynth, or anything else I don't know about?

warm snow
#

Gathering collectables

wheat plume
#

ok

#

ff14 web site says I can get endtide aethersand from one fish, i already bought the fish from market, to obtain the endtide from the fish, do i need that aetherical reduction?

agile laurel
#

needed to be a collectible too

#

but yes

visual eagle
#

why does it say my connection is poor right now when it usually says excellent but im not lagging in any other games 🤨

wheat plume
#

oh, so no the regullar fish, , but a collectable version of the fish (different item same name), right?

agile laurel
#

bingo.

warm snow
#

Yes

#

And collectables are untradeable

agile laurel
#

turn on collector's glove before interacting with the node

warm snow
#

Khell hasn't levelled fisher

#

At all

wheat plume
#

my fisher is at lvl 2, so it's not an option for me now lol

warm snow
#

So either scrips or mb

wheat plume
#

just to be sure, Collector's Glove is something only for fisher, or for every gatherer (and that would be another thing I don't know about yet lol)?

warm snow
#

Fisher

#

Used to be every gatherer

#

Now it's just fisher

heavy wadi
rich moss
#

hm

heavy wadi
#

it starts around 1:58:00 in the vid you posted

#

ish

wheat plume
#

Is it fun to fish in ff14? I know there is something like instances for fishing with party and stuff like that (but I don't know how it works),
but is it worth to invest time there? Does it give a fun time? I kinda like fishing in other games

warm snow
#

Subjective

wheat plume
#

yeah, i know, but what's ur subjective opinion about that?

rich moss
#

well is the music that shows up in that cutscene, but i'm looking for the track that plays immediately after that cutscene ends

jovial quarry
#

That one is an incidental track and I’m not sure if it has a name. I’m still scouring through the soundtrack releases but I haven’t found it yet.

rich moss
#

yeah same, i was wondering if it's just a nameless track that doesn't show up in the osts

heavy wadi
#

it's not

#

i'm blanking on the name

rich moss
#

do you know which ost it's from? or if it's even from an ost?

#

i could've sworn i've heard it in the game before endwalker

#

but i can't remember any other specific moments

jovial quarry
#

Yeah it plays several times during Shadowbringers

rich moss
#

ok yeah, so i'm not crazy

#

i'm going to go look through the heavensward and stormblood osts

twilit arch
#

I believe its Inner Recesses

#

Which is from 1.0, Before Meteor OST

heavy wadi
#

yeeup

jovial quarry
#

Yeah just found it. Inner Recess.

rich moss
#

:o

#

man no wonder i couldn't find it, it's old af and isn't anywhere on youtube

#

but nice, thanks!

twilit arch
#

it is technically on youtube

#

via Square Enix Music Channel

#

the downside is that the names are in JP

#

but its track 44

robust crow
#

considering the game is on ps4/ps5

twilit arch
#

game is designed with controller in mind

robust crow
#

controllers are extremely common and widely regarded as a perfectly fine control scheme

twilit arch
#

so if controller is more comfortable for you, feel free to use

jovial quarry
#

I play on pc using a controller and it works perfectly

indigo cosmos
#

How many Krakka Root come out if I plant a bag of Krakka Root Seeds in a flowerpot?

warm snow
#

I've cleared the hardest raids in the game on controller. Don't let anyone tell you it's inferior to mouse and keyboard

twilit arch
#

depends on what soil you use, with g3 shroud you'd get 18 @indigo cosmos

indigo cosmos
#

thanks!

rugged flicker
#

If you're viewing a cutscene that plays after a dungeon and you need to exit the game, will it always start from the beginning of that cutscene once you log back in?

oak lily
#

Usually

#

Like my game dc’d in the ARR credits and it started back at the beginning of the cutscene

rugged flicker
oak lily
#

What dungeon

#

You can still rewatch cutscenes at inn’s as well

rugged flicker
#

Just asking because I'm in the final Endwalker dungeon and I got something I gotta do after I'm finished, and I know a lot of cutscenes will play.

rugged flicker
oak lily
#

The cutscene before the trial is about 15 minutes at most

rugged flicker
#

I could probably just leave it. The DC timer is about 30 minutes these days, right?

oak lily
#

Yes

rugged flicker
#

Yeah I shouldn't be that long.

oak lily
#

But the dungeon timer still ticks

rugged flicker
oak lily
#

Anyways, enjoy the ending!

rugged flicker
#

If you finished a dungeon.

#

Exited.

#

Started a cutscene.

#

DC'd

oak lily
#

The cutscene starts immediately

rugged flicker
#

Then reconnected two hours later.

#

You'd need to redo the dungeon?

oak lily
#

It should bring you back to the start of it

rugged flicker
#

Ah okay.

oak lily
#

No, if you stay in the dungeon instance the timer ticks

hollow inlet
#

So I asked yesterday but didn’t get an answer. Is there a minion like this? This little guy is so cute

oak lily
#

No

manic thorn
#

So just did PotD 1-10 to show a friend, and we went Matched party, can we not switch to just the 2 of us for 11-20?

jovial quarry
#

You can go from a fixed party to a matched party but not the other way around. Matched has to stay matched.

manic thorn
#

Ah so we need to restart it and go as Fixed. Later on can we get more people to help if needed?

jovial quarry
#

As in for a matched party? Yeah as long as they have a file that is also matched on the same set of floors.

manic thorn
#

I meant like if we do 1-30 as a Fixed party just the 2 of us. Then we want to do 4 players for 31-50.

#

If we could get extra help, as long as we started it as Fixed.

jovial quarry
#

You’d have to convert to a matched party but yes

manic thorn
#

But don't have to start over.

jovial quarry
#

Correct

visual sandal
#

how does the plus rule in TT work

#

it makes no sense

manic thorn
#

Also the pomedors stay between the Fixed party forever right? It's only during matched that they reset every 10 floors?

jovial quarry
jovial quarry
#

Basically if you place a card and two sides create an equal sum, it counts as a capture.

visual sandal
#

what

jovial quarry
#

Here, the green card is touching the two reds.

#

Add up the numbers that are touching.

#

Since these are equal, it counts as a capture.

visual sandal
#

equal to what

#

isn't it just if more then capture

jovial quarry
#

Each other. Both sides add up to 9.

#

It doesn’t have to be 9. The sums just have to match.

acoustic flower
#

I was wondering, if me and a friend both want to try out the game together on the free trial, how easy would it be to find kind strangers willing to create a party for us?

jovial quarry
#

Shouldn’t be too hard. Just post up in a major city and ask over chat

acoustic flower
#

ok, thank you. I'll give it a try

crystal briar
#

question would alpha scape v4 normal be doable with just 2 people unsynced?

glossy flare
#

if you pair a tank with a healer it should work I guess

crystal briar
#

hmm what about savage version?

glossy flare
#

don't think so, no

#

I know o4s has been done solo

jovial quarry
#

O12S still hurts a LOT at 90.

crystal briar
#

ok thanks might have to get some of my fc to help then thanks

round ridge
#

So, question. Just unlocked Rival Wings, since I hear that is the fastest way to farm the new Irregular Tomestones. But it is telling me it's a 30+ wait time?

pure copper
#

is castrum like 50% of an xp bar at 80+?

oak lily
#

I got like 90% at 88

pure copper
#

off a castrum? i figured prae would be like a level

oak lily
#

Oh, castrum

#

Idk

frail fulcrum
#

are free trial chars searchable in the lodestone?

round ridge
#

What is the best way to farm irregular tomestones? I am wanting at least 80, but I'd prefer 130+

pure copper
#

any tank works, but war is the best cuz holmgang

round ridge
#

Just find folks in PF?

pure copper
#

yea\

tidal yarrow
#

why did my sub cost 1 extra euro?

pure copper
#

thats probably a test transaction for a card

round ridge
#

Did you change card info? Sometimes things get a 1 euro hold

pure copper
#

itll be reverrtted in a few days

tidal yarrow
#

oh i see.. first time i notice it

unborn dock
#

i accepted items from the delivery moogle, but i'm not sure where the items went. i checked my inventory using "i" and i didn't see it. are items sent to a storage of sorts somewhere?

remote lintel
#

what items

twilit arch
#

if it was an armour item (i.e something intended for glamour) it's probably in your armoury chest

unborn dock
#

thank you!

leaden ginkgo
#

do shields and swords combined (PLD) have a higher rate of getting certain trial items from desynth? say dancing wings from titania weapon?

cursive rock
#

No

#

Shield doesn’t drop stuff crafting stiff anymore

boreal storm
#

Shields no longer drop trial mats

cursive rock
#

Only the sword

leaden ginkgo
#

is the sword the same rate then compared to other weapons?

cursive rock
#

According to the note they might have buff the sword desynth drop rate. But I don’t think it’s that much since I been desynthing sword a lot

boreal storm
#

Yes, so just spend your totems on sword

leaden ginkgo
#

im thinking about what to buy with totems

#

for desynth purposes

#

i see thanks

#

If the odds are different it's like trying to roll a 6 on a d6 vs a d8 and I'm just gonna try rolling more d8s and see what happens

leaden ginkgo
#

didnt have luck with swords so far but i guess its just rng in the end so idk

stuck kernel
#

Is this game good on ps4?

warm snow
#

Yes

stuck kernel
#

Is it cross platform?

warm snow
#

Yes

#

So you're asking does the game look good on this TV?

#

Basically

#

Hell you can even plug and mouse and keyboard into the ps4

#

Or 5 for that matter

stuck kernel
#

The servers... Like I could be playing on ps4, and a friend could be playing on PC... And we can still at together?

warm snow
#

And ps4 support is here for at least another 4 years

#

Also yes

#

All the one set of servers

stuck kernel
#

I'll try it out XD

warm snow
#

Free trial is good but no social features 4 u

stuck kernel
#

Can it be soloed? Like, could you theoretically finish the game alone? Like, main story wise...

warm snow
#

Not yet

stuck kernel
#

Damn...

warm snow
#

It'll be 90% soloable by the time the next expansion comes out

#

But you can basically play it like a single player game

#

It's a final fantasy game first mmo second

stuck kernel
#

Yeah it's an MMO so I expect to have to find parties...

warm snow
#

That's the outright design philosophy

warm snow
stuck kernel
warm snow
#

And there's other shit you can do while queuing

stuck kernel
#

I've played a lot of ffxi...

#

And it was really good...

warm snow
#

It's nowhere near as grindy

#

But as I understand it ffxi has trust dungeons

stuck kernel
#

Ffxi is pretty easy now...

warm snow
#

And we have those in shadowbringers and Endwalker the 2 latest expansiobs

#

And they're gradually adding them into the previous expansions starting in the next major patch

warm snow
stuck kernel
#

You can summon npc allies that you gain by talking to or doing quests for specific npc's, and it makes it easy for people who don't have friends, since it's hard to find parties now that the game is so old...

warm snow
#

That's only currently a feature in the latest 2 expacs

#

Being added to previous story content

#

But gradually

#

Starting with 6.1

boreal storm
#

It’s not like queues take forever, people still get dragged into old content

stuck kernel
#

So ffxi is chill... Most of the game, is traveling the huge open world, talking to npc's, and doing quests in specific areas... It's only grindy if you decide to continue playing after max level and get gear levels n stuff...

warm snow
#

We got a whole series of post game content in stormblood based of ffxi

boreal storm
#

The forbidden land, Eureka

stuck kernel
#

The only thing I don't like about ffxiv is that you still have to pay monthly...

#

Like, it's a sixty dollar game with expansions that also cost a bit...

warm snow
#

Funny enough I killed absolute virtue there earlier today

boreal storm
#

But like

warm snow
boreal storm
#

Expansions only come out every 2 years

warm snow
#

And free trial is the base game + first expac with no time limit

stuck kernel
#

Idk, I'm probably just a cheap skate... But I don't like having to pay monthly ;_;

warm snow
#

Literally everything in that for free for as long as you want to try it

stuck kernel
#

I didn't know that...

warm snow
#

Only thing you probably won't be able to do is extreme trials, coils and savage raids

It only stops if you upgrade

How do you get the free trial?

#

You download it...

warm snow
#

You can also download the free trial off psn

#

Is the free trial on ps4?

warm snow
#

You don't need ps+

leaden ginkgo
#

Yes

stuck kernel
#

Ohhh

warm snow
#

So yeah, give it a go, just remember to play it more like a jrpg and less like an mmo

#

And the story's a bit of a slow burn

stuck kernel
#

Nah, there's no free trial on ps4, I'm on the store rn, it just shows stuff that cost money...

boreal storm
#

There is

warm snow
#

And for good measure

Hey so i reached lvl 80 and im kinda overwhelmed what i should do now. im open for every kind of advice :D

boreal storm

Do optional stuff you forgot about

timber stone

idk if that was smart but i bought the pack that instantly got me to 80 maybe that was a stupid decision but i got told i should do that cause leveling is super boring and now im completely overwhelmed with everything

pure copper
#

yeah buying the 80 skip will overwhelm any new player lol

pure zenith

and only consider boosting when you have a good handle on the game

timber stone

now im sitting on my lvl 80 char

you can go and get a different class and just level that one

came back recently and was wondering if its still possible

boreal storm

OCE is still classified as “new”

jade quartz
#

Yep

cosmic abyss
#

where do i initiate the transfer?

jade quartz
#

Transfers remain free as long as the servers are designated “new” status

#

Mog station > home world transfer service

cosmic abyss
#

awesome ty

timber stone
#

okay so i just saw i got the story skip thing aswell

#

uhm i suppose that was a kinda stupid thing to do?

so i think i cant do the story anymore

#

yeah im aiming for the kokopur thingy, but dont want to spam farm and burn out

pure copper
#

the chocobo race and mahjong ones in particular dont seem worth it

obsidian patio
#

Mahjong is never worth it

pure copper
#

my only gripe is ill need mahjong for the achievement

obsidian patio
#

But entering 3 races for 5k is pretty fast

#

And if you win one that’s another 5k

minor epoch
#

mahjong is triple triad right

warped nest
#

No

obsidian patio
#

Mahjong is the IRL game of Riichii Mahjong

#

Where you play against others and form good hands to get the most points

warped nest
#

It takes a lot of practice to be good at it

obsidian patio
#

It’s like Rummy or a really complex version of poker

#

But a game easily takes over 30 minutes to complete

#

And you need to do two for the challenge log entry that gives 5k

#

So it’s never worth it if you just want the MGP.

pure copper
#

my understanding is there are people in JP who have XIV subs just for mahjong?

obsidian patio

You don’t even need sub

#

Free trial can play it

Some fates are part of a chain

Don't tell me you're trying to do arr relic books

How to buy the game

Click here for NA

Click here for EU

Click here for JP

Before purchasing, you may wish to try out the game with the Free Trial, which allows you to experience the game up to level 60 with no limitations on playtime, albeit with some social and trade-related restrictions. See !faq freetrial for info.

Please be aware that FFXIV is a subscription-based game, and after purchasing the game you must pay for each month of play. There is no way to return to being a Free Trial player after you have registered a purchased copy of the game to your account; you must pay to log in and continue playing.

PC users: make sure to buy the game on your preferred store (Steam vs. Square Enix Store). Purchasing the game on Steam locks you into using Steam for all future expansion purchases, and similarly purchasing it via Square Enix Store or any other non-Steam retailer locks you out of ever using Steam to play FFXIV. After your game code has been registered to your FFXIV account, this decision can never be changed.

FINAL FANTASY XIV Online Starter Edition:
AKA the ''base game.'' Gives access to A Realm Reborn and Heavensward. This is the same content that you can play during the Free Trial, but with the Free Trial restrictions on social interactions, trading, PvP etc. lifted. Comes with 30 days of subscription time.

FINAL FANTASY XIV: Endwalker:
Gives access to Stormblood, Shadowbringers, and the latest expansion, Endwalker. Does not include any bonus subscription time.

FINAL FANTASY XIV Online Complete Edition:
Combines all of the above into a single purchase (including the 30 days of subscription time).

#

Dungeons have been a thing the entire game

open coral
#

Yes. Currently there are 2 Extreme trials, 3 dungeons, and 4 Normal raid bosses which are level 90 content.

#

They'll add more over the course of the expansion.

#

This is how things always go.

timber stone
#

ok im gonna go get endwalker now. and then im gonna lvl till 90 and then i can start doing some endgame content?

open coral
#

You can do endgame content once you've completed the entire MSQ

boreal storm
#

Yeah you can’t skip the current expansion’s story

pure zenith
#

yeah but just know that a lot of endgame will be locked behind mini stories

open coral
#

Completing MSQ msq is a hard requirement for all endgame content. The quests bluequest to unlock raids and Extreme trials don't even appear until you've completed the MSQ

pure zenith
#

that and you wont have much to do if all you are going for is endgame since the game is designed around the story being a very big piece of content

tawdry galleon
#

in the early game if i want to swap jobs is it faster to just swap or make a new character

pure zenith
#

jobs below your highest get a 100% exp buff

#

plus its super easy to pick them all up

tawdry galleon
#

cheers

open coral
#

It's never going to be faster to make a new character just to swap jobs, since you'll have to go through the MSQ and won't have the armory buff for jobs under the level of your highest level job.

Hello, not sure if this is better for beginners lounge but I just bought the starter edition and I'd like to maybe level with others in a party or something, I've never been able to play an mmo with a group of other people but ffxiv looks really fun and I'd like to get into the game

boreal storm
#

Don’t need to, just do the msq

open coral
#

You also don't really do a lot of world grinding in this game as, again, that's not really how it's designed.

#

If you want to have other people to play with, you might want to look for a social, new-player-friendly Free Company (player guild).

Six months would be before the launch of Endwalker. So it's probably asking for a EW registration code.

boreal storm
#

Not on the same account any way

heavy wadi
#

unless you make a new squenix account entirely

crisp sphinx
#

That's really weird

open coral
#

Not really

#

They share a license slot

crisp sphinx
#

It really is

#

I've never seen a game confine you to a specific platform before

heavy wadi
#

it's mildly weird but iirc blame steam

open coral
#

It only does that for PC/Steam

#

Presumably because of some authentication bs

crisp sphinx
#

Guess I'm not subbing through steam like I originally planned :/

#

Rip

open coral
#

Oh, no. You can do that.

#

Go from free trial PC to full game Steam

boreal storm
#

Or Just make a new account

open coral
#

You just can't have both versions of the same type (e.g. PC and Steam trial) on the same account

#

Just buy the game on Steam and download the Steam version, and you should be good.

crisp sphinx
open coral
#

It'll link to your trial account just fine.

#

No need to start over or anything.

crisp sphinx
#

Not a good suggestion from that guy, but noted

open coral
#

lol

crisp sphinx
#

Will I need to reinstall the game itself or does that stay the same?

soft prawn
#

oh man I only use Steam and register my account using the launcher provided then I only take a rest from the game now I can't get into the game anymore... because it keeps telling to to enter registration code again which obviously does not work... I'm confused now

open coral
boreal storm
#

Also please look at your mogstation info, we’re trying to help

open coral
#

And when you're launching the game, are you using a shortcut on your desktop, or going through the Steam platform?

#

But yeah, like Fuil said, we're trying to help, but we need more information to do so.

soft prawn
open coral
#

So prior to the Steam link update, which was two weeks ago.

#

If you're using a launcher shortcut on your desktop... don't.

soft prawn
open coral
#

Okay? You can make a desktop shortcut for any game in Steam. I know because I do it for games all the time.

#

So if you did that, the shortcut won't work anymore.

#

Is what I'm saying.

soft prawn
#

haven't we all know that? lol

open coral
#

Launching the game through Steam should prompt you to link your account to the Mogstation, as that's something that was added in the last two weeks.

boreal storm
#

It might also mention changing your password, but you should probably do that anyways

open coral
#

If it doesn't, then either you don't actually have the Steam version, or you'll need to redownload the launcher.

#

There's also a way to trick it into thinking you've redownloaded the launcher, but I don't know how to do that since I've never needed to.

#

It involves changing a value in one of the files.

#

I managed to finally prog p4s p2 act 2. What's the next hard milestone?

oblique skiff
#

imo act 4

#

act 3 is just knowledge check

#

like

#

can you remember your tower, your bait spots, and kb immune?

last mural
#

Would people fault me for progging act 4 despite having never done act 3?

oblique skiff
#

as long as you study act 3 pretty well

#

just remember to kb immune after first kick

last mural
#

alright, thanks

oblique skiff
#

also that's assuming you even get to phase 2

my bad... so this is my problem I accidentally log in my US accounts because I forgot. I honestly use JP accnts for my FFIV now I can't delete that ID anymore to re-enter my JP ID.. any idea?

boreal storm
#

I made a mistake linking my Steam account to my Square Enix ID.

leaden ginkgo
#

What lvl a crafter needs to be to do items for Ishgard resto?

jovial quarry
#

20 minimum for crafters. 10 minimum for gatherers.

swift pasture
#

when in lv 72-lv78 content, is it better to use infuriate to do chaotic cyclone or just stick with Fell cleave on boss fights?

obsidian patio
#

Chaotic cyclone

swift pasture
cosmic sleet
#

soz if its in an obvious place but can I check character creation date?

ruby plover
#

Probably a dumb question, but to get the moogle tomestones, you have to do everything synced right?

twilit arch
#

yes

ruby plover
#

ty!

obsidian patio
#

The first achievement most people get is from doing 10 quests, which happens very fast at the start

viscid lake
#

Do people still run Dun Scaith at all? The other two took a while, but Dun just isn't hitting at all.

obsidian patio
#

Might be your DF language settings if you’re playing on a JP or EU datacenter

#

Or a early/bad time of day.

brisk nymph
#

hey y'all, just had my second Odin FATE clear today. Any idea why I didn't receive any Odin mantles on my second clear?

pure copper
twilit arch
#

did you get gold/silver rating?

patent citrus
#

get a party and contribute

brisk nymph
#

I don't know what's required, honestly. I got the actual FATE rewards of XP and gil and seals, the FATE was finished at Gold.

#

Is a party important?

patent citrus
#

easiest if you change to tank, turn stance on and just keep hitting stuff (don't spam provoke)

#

and get a party

#

yeah, for strong fate/hunt, it's tough to get a gold

brisk nymph
#

Okay. That makes sense. I was in a party I'd randomly been invited to the first time, but not the second.

tulip chasm
#

do you not get the af gear of other jobs on the same role when you do shb role quests

patent citrus
#

you get

pure copper
#

before u can get their gear

#

assuming u did the role chain

tulip chasm
#

i did em

#

just dont know what im missing

twilit arch
#

did you talk to grenoldt in the tempest?

tulip chasm
#

ya

twilit arch
#

and they are level 80 correct?

tulip chasm
#

mhm

pure copper
#

odd...that worked for me just today

tulip chasm
#

is it caster/ranged and melee for dps role questline respectively?

patent citrus
#

then you didn't do your role job quest

twilit arch
#

no

#

its caster and melee+physranged

tulip chasm
#

i dont see anymore blues here lol

#

ah, alright

#

that makes sense now

pure copper
#

caster, phys, tank, heal

boreal storm
#

Physical dps and caster dps in ShB

boreal storm
#

EW has all of them actually split correctly

spiral inlet
#

do female avatars

#

also get the tux?

jovial quarry
#

They can, yes.

twilit arch
#

its just the bestman's set

#

so yes they can

spiral inlet
#

what

#

I didn't wear anything

#

o.o

tulip chasm
#

oh, got it lol

solemn jewel
#

You can pick between "princess" and thd other thing

tulip chasm
#

my dumb butt got that role quest at the start of shb and forgot it was on there

solemn jewel
#

So either suit or dress

spiral inlet
#

huh I didn't get to pick

#

did I

#

o.o

boreal storm
#

The other outfit is the high house bustle

#

You did, you just weren’t paying attention

spiral inlet
#

dang lol

flat sage
#

Excuse me but

#

How much is Leve Kitting something to 50-60?

modest igloo
flat sage
modest igloo
boreal storm
#

And that’s ever changing

flat sage
#

Oh boy

#

For a Reconditioned Anima Weapon

#

and coming from someone that isn't a crafter at all

#

I might as well just

#

explore other options for now--

boreal storm
#

Just use the gathering scrips

hollow inlet
#

So I bought the hempen undershirt, expeditioner’s tabard, etc on the marketboard. But now it says I can’t put them up for sale. Why is that?

boreal storm
#

You used it?

cursive ridge
#

for the ARR relic, the alexandrite step says it can also be obtained from doing FATEs with that weapon. i dont see the amount listed so i assume it's basically 1 per fate, so really not worth doing?

jovial quarry
#

If you've used it for, say, glamour projecting, the item becomes bound to you. Meaning you can't put it on MB.

cursive ridge
#

or earned combat experience while wearing it

cursive ridge
#

you dont

jovial quarry
#

It's permanent. Can't unbind an item.

covert marlin
#

How does someone know if I am in a specific LS? A player just whispered me and ask me to inv him/her.

hollow inlet
#

Damn. It doesn’t show any binding on the bar. I just had it in my glamour dresser

pure copper
#

or osmething like that

hollow inlet
#

Damn

cursive ridge
#

a big warning notice everybody ignores

hollow inlet
#

Ohhhh

cursive ridge
#

also UNTRADABLE has basically the same effect

hollow inlet
#

Also, I have the moonfire trunks and vest, but I’m a female viera. Can I get the female version somehow?

cursive ridge
#

try calamity salvager, they have a bunch of gender conversions for gear

#

for seasonal gear

#

ah

#

moonfire gear isn't seasonal

#

it's just a craftable thing, so you can't exchange it

patent citrus
#

yeah it's crafted

#

sell the male one and buy the female one

hollow inlet
#

Oh damn

#

The moonfire items are the same problem i mentioned before

cursive ridge
boreal storm
#

And when used in combat: this item is now bound to you appears in chat

flat sage
#

Might take waaaay too long

patent citrus
#

doh/dol is usually a good investment, but yeah

#

there are other ways to get it

#

poetics, primal items

umbral dune
patent citrus
#

but the easiest are indeed gather/craft scrips

#

you only need 150 of those envelopes for 1 weapon

boreal storm
#

You sure that math’s right? Because you need 60 sand

cursive ridge
#

you get 2 sand for 5 envelopes

#

so that's 60

boreal storm
#

Okay I forgot that, been a while

flat sage
#

QUESTION

#

Does the amount of new players in a roulette stack

#

So if there's 3 new players

#

Is that 300 poetics

cursive ridge
#

no

flat sage
#

darn it

cursive ridge
#

it's a binary thing

boreal storm
#

Is there new people: Yes or no

flat sage
#

Okay, I have optimised my malevolent plot to farm poetics

modest igloo
covert marlin
flat sage
#

Actually um

#

Sycrus Tower

#

100 a minute
