Current savage tier spread

hearty cargo
#

According to gamepur recent statistics (February 2022), Moogle has the highest population at 112k total and 12k active.

faint flare
#

Those aren't accurate

#

Unofficial censuses never are

jade quartz
#

We usually compare jobs at 95th percentile not 99th

#

99 is too many outliers with crazy crit luck

hearty cargo
# faint flare Those aren't accurate

Yeah I mean he's looking for an answer and that's a guestimation šŸ¤·šŸ¾ā€ā™‚ļø It's not a perfect science but its an educated guess.

jade quartz
#

And padding strats

remote lintel
#

individual world population doesnt matter since you can just world visit

faint flare
#

The 99 link is just what I had it on last time

remote lintel
#

also moogle is the unofficial french world so if you dont speak french youll probably have a hard time

'Which world should I pick?'

You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.

The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.

If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.

Notable worlds:

  • Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
  • Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
  • Moogle (Large amount of French players)
  • Shiva (Large amount of German players)
    ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY

#

it's also over the course of a single day

faint flare
#

And they usually discount a large portion of people due to the methods they use

#

Like a very very large portion

hearty cargo
oblique skiff
#

this is a thing tho

jade quartz
#

World populations are essentially balanced

gaunt pulsar
#

uhm recently i've had some huge lagspikes on eu anyone else?
and the game just kicked me out of the game mid dungeon and doesnt let me in
my internet works fine every game is 30-40 ping

#

oh yeah on chaos omega

hearty cargo
#

You can google the stats to see different estimations but nothing will be perfectly accurate. If you're looking for activity you could always use the community finder and search for active linkshells/free companies on chaos (https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/community_finder/?dc=Chaos).

FINAL FANTASY XIV, The Lodestone

Using the community finder, you can search for new friends, linkshells, and free companies to join you on your adventures.

#

Any resource for gear at level 50?

faint flare
#

Buy ironworks with poetics

jade quartz
#

All unofficial censuses come with heavy caveats

#

E.g. only counting MSQ completion as ā€œactiveā€ and thereby ignoring huge surges of new players as well as those who stop playing after beating the MSQ

#

Also they can’t count those with their lodestone profiles set to private

halcyon mulch
#

what does this setting actually control? it seems like nothing

#

character always turns instantly, or at the same slowed speed in auto-run mode

hearty cargo
halcyon mulch
#

I use gamepad, still no difference tho 3smenheraThink

hearty cargo
halcyon mulch
#

ya, I think we're on the same page with all of that. I might do some googling about it

keen crystal
#

Where can I find a tank group?

remote lintel
#

what do you mean a tank group

keen crystal
#

To get nightmare

faint flare
#

Pf

#

Throw up a mount farm

remote lintel
#

you can just solo it?

faint flare
#

Or solo at like 70/80+

keen crystal
#

So 15 hours

faint flare
#

Rng is rng

remote lintel
#

assuming youre lvl 90 then shrugg

boreal storm
#

You are opening the chest right?

#

And doing the right fights

keen crystal
remote lintel
#

81 is still fine

faint flare
#

Rng is rng

warm snow
faint flare
#

A group isn't gonna make a difference

warm snow
keen crystal
#

My Friend Stole it from me

boreal storm
#

And you’re doing ifrit, Garuda or Titan EX, correct

warm snow
#

Gonna be piss easy

#

Only the OG primals drop nightmare

#

Cuz for all the devs knew that's all they'd get to make

halcyon mulch
faint flare
#

Just keep farming

halcyon mulch
#

reminds me of a farming group I was in recently, where I told them I had to leave soon

keen crystal
#

Bruh I have been for 15 hours

halcyon mulch
#

and the other guy still cllicked need on my drop SCohno

faint flare
#

Rng is rng

#

A group won't change anything

remote lintel
#

i mean if he didnt have the drop then hes well within his right to roll for it

halcyon mulch
#

then why did he apologise immediately after haha

boreal storm
#

Rolls are RNG, so he could’ve got it or could’ve not

remote lintel
#

probably was a "sorry that you didnt manage to get it"

halcyon mulch
#

nah, he just autoclicked it out of muscle memory and forgot

remote lintel
#

if you say so

boreal storm
#

If that makes you happy

halcyon mulch

hearty cargo
keen crystal
#

Now my level 25 friend has nightmare and I don’t he did not know what it was called and got nightmare

#

😦

faint flare
#

That's a different mount

halcyon mulch
#

nightmare is pretty sweet, goes nicely with unicorn

faint flare
#

It's not nightmare cause that's impossible

remote lintel
#

nightmare requires lvl 50 to get

warm snow
#

Literally impossible for a level 25 to have nightmare

faint flare
#

The winged black pegasus is from palace of the deas

warm snow

Can't even enter that fight

And extremely expensive to buy off market

warm snow
#

Or lootboxes

boreal storm
#

They couldn’t have even got it from a moogle tome event

warm snow
#

If you're insane

remote lintel
#

this is nightmare

keen crystal
#

Sorry

remote lintel
#

this is a different mount

#

which is not from the primals

boreal storm
#

There’s many horses with many names

warm snow
#

And only 4 just straight up normal horses

#

That are all a massive pain to get

rugged thicket
#

are the Padjali weapons considered spoilers?

warm snow
#

No

#

Spoilers would be shit like what happens at the end of a quest line

#

Or where primal weapons come from in certain cases

boreal storm
edgy plume
#

It's too late now, but what's a good way to find a group for a boss Fate? Thinking of beating Cancer in It's Not Lupus the next time it pops up. The big crab boss, apparently it can drop a Smallshell minion. It does too much damage for me to try soloing, plus other enemies keep spawning.

remote lintel
#

shout the location

boreal storm
#

Use BLU

edgy plume
#

There wasn't really anyone in the area. Costa del Sol. Other than that I can't shout

#

What's BLU?

remote lintel
#

blue mage

boreal storm
#

Super busted

edgy plume
#

Er hm. Guess I'll keep that in mind. But that'd be way later on

boreal storm
#

It unlocked at lvl 50

patent citrus
#

switch your companion to healer stance, then yeah use blu and just burst it

edgy plume
#

The fate is level 32 tho, I'm hoping to do as my classes are around that level

patent citrus
#

BLU spell ignores level restriction

remote lintel
#

well you probably wont find anyone the regular way

patent citrus
#

so you can still use your lv 70 moonflute burst rotation

boreal storm
#

Also you can see if this works

patent citrus
#

also it's like 10:00 AEDT in AU lol

boreal storm

!action Missile

**Missile** : lvl 1 BLU (300 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(2.0 second base cast time)

Deals damage equal to 50% of target's current HP.
Chance of successful attack is low. Has no effect on enemies whose level is higher than your own.

Blue Magic

A magical imitation of warmachina technology, this technique allows the user to fire a barrage of aetherial missiles. When efficacious─which, bear in mind, is not guaranteed─it sends a shock through the foe that appears to resonate more the greater their vitality.

patent citrus
#

but you could try shouting at limsa

terse thorn
#

Is there a resource for HOW MANY MSQ QUESTS there are per expac? Just wondering about my progress

patent citrus
#

varying from 80-100 afaik

robust crow
#

the number of quests isn't a very helpful guideline since each quest varies greatly in length

patent citrus
#

that's just MSQ..

robust crow
#

you can use consolegamewiki's list of all MSQ quests though

terse thorn
#

Like how long would each expac be

#

because ARR seems very long

edgy plume
#

Alright guess I'll teleport and try finding a tank at Limsa the moment the fate spawns next time. Cuz it expires quickly. I could heal

keen crystal
#

What does vortex feathers do?

patent citrus
#

nothing

boreal storm
#

You craft with them

patent citrus
#

It's an old currency that doesn't work anymore? šŸ¤”

keen crystal
#

Ok

terse thorn
#

does ARR have the longest MSQ?

patent citrus
#

yeah

remote lintel
#

probably

#

since its 50 levels

patent citrus
#

the DLC only have 10 levels, lol

robust crow
patent citrus
#

oh right... that's the garuda's feather šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø

#

sorry, made a mistake

#

I thought it's the red one bought with pvp's wolf marks..

twilit arch
#

garuda's feather does make something, the housing item/minion

keen crystal
twilit arch
#

one you're thinking of is condor feathers

#

those were the old pvp stuff

patent citrus
#

yeah...

boreal storm
patent citrus
#

would recommend to just ignore that kind of invite..

#

they are mass sent into new players... more like annoyance

terse thorn
#

oh lol

patent citrus
#

if you are interested in joining an FC, would recommend this

#

!faq communityfinder

zinc orbitBOT
patent citrus
#

or you could type '/officialsite' in game

#

and click community finder there

warm snow
#

It has the longest patch msq too iirc

terse thorn
#

good I like the cutscenes

#

I kind of skip over the majority of story fluff otherwise

remote lintel
#

the expansions have less terrible pacing

warm snow
#

Arr had/has an insane development history

boreal storm
#

They had a lot to set up

warm snow
#

And like no fucking time

kind tree
#

Is there an achievement for crafting every item?

warm snow
#

Kinda

#

There are achievements for crafting x number of items for each crafters crafting log

twilit arch
#

there's achievements for crafting certain amounts of items

warm snow
#

Which also includes housing items btw

twilit arch
#

things like master recipes and other such items aren't included in it

warm snow
#

Other items in the extra tab aren't tracked

#

So basically the 1-90 listed items in the normal tab and the housing section of the extra tab

#

Oh and the flower shit for alchemist

#

guess who was dumb enough to grind out those achievements

kind tree
#

Ah, gotcha thank you

warm snow
#

You can check the achievements menu, it has a crafters section, also there's no Endwalker equivalent achievement. Yet

#

Or did they stop at stormblood

If they're current/former WoW players, you can point them to any of the major WoW content creators who made the switch or tried out XIV as well - Asmongold, Preach, Bellular, and Grinding Gear are the ones that come to mind for me, but also like, even people like Echo's Rogerbrown if they're people who follow the RWF teams.

Final Fantasy 14 is now the most popular MMO in the world. Lets take a look at why, and lets see if it will be worth playing Final Fantasy 14 in 2022. Is Final Fantasy 14 good?

Yes, Yes it is. But why? Lets talk about why many consider this the Best MMO in 2022

Imagine WoW not being considered a "mainstream" title

leaden ginkgo

Otherwise, it might sound more intimdating than it is

boreal storm
#

This game is simple

hearty cargo
warm snow
leaden ginkgo
open coral
#

Games like Genshin and Skyrim have a strong emphasis on free exploration and level grinding, while XIV is basically the exact opposite.

remote lintel
#

i mean i would say xiv lets you freely explore

#

with the amount of details it has

tulip chasm
#

uh, the free trial that you can play for the entirety of a realm reborn and the expansion heavensward with no restrictions on playtime

warm snow
tulip chasm
#

is also a thing

open coral
#

Not the way that Genshin or Skyrim do, where they encourage you to go wherever you want and do whatever you want. XIV enforces a linear concept, even to exploration with the way you can't even go to later zones without following the story.

leaden ginkgo
boreal storm
#

They can just do the trial and if it’s not their thing, they can just dip whenever

remote lintel
#

yeah not to that extent but when i was a sprout i definitely felt like i could just walk out the city and start going somewhere and then run into an npc with random lore dialogue or a quest

open coral
#

XIV is not designed to be a sandbox like that.

tulip chasm
#

and if you aren't a lore person i don't think there's much of a reward anyway

hearty cargo
leaden ginkgo
remote lintel
#

for ARR areas at least it's not really limiting

#

except if you run into higher level mobs and die

leaden ginkgo
open coral
leaden ginkgo
#

I hope it'd make it easier to explore

remote lintel
#

you could do that

oak lily
#

Unless you start in Limsa

open coral
#

If that interests them, then have them pick up the free trial and try things out for themselves.

remote lintel
#

true OMEGALUL

#

it just felt very open world mmo-y

#

to me

jade quartz
#

Watching gameplay really doesn’t convey how it feels to play FFXIV tbh

tulip chasm
#

yea

jade quartz
#

That’s why it’s not popular streaming

open coral
#

No, but if they're interested by what they see, then they'll be more interested in trying it out for themselves.

tulip chasm
#

imo its pretty boring to watch if you arent an ffxiv player

remote lintel
#

you need ✨ immersion✨

open coral
#

That's my opinion, anyways.

Like, if you show them some high-level raid content with all the visuals on, that could be interesting enough.

remote lintel
#

^

#

what got me to play ff14 was watching a streamer do e4s though i didnt know thats what it was

leaden ginkgo
open coral
#

Not yet

#

But it does support other streaming

#

So like, if you have Twitch, you could set it up to stream to Twitch from your PS4

warm snow
#

Ah lousy a suggestion as this is for some people, you kinda just have to commit to playing ff14 and giving it a good go

oak lily
jade quartz
#

Tell them the free trial is enormous and has no time limit

#

They can go from there

remote lintel
#

and its award winning and critically acclaimed

warm snow
#

Show them some kick ass music

#

Fiend would be my usual suggestion

jade quartz
#

If you try and force someone to play something they’re just gonna resent it and be biased against the game

warm snow
#

Or metal

tulip chasm
#

and can play up yo the entirety of a realm reborn

#

AND the expansion heavensward

warm snow
#

Or something wonderfully stupid like brute jsutice

hearty cargo
#

tell them if they don't play you will never talk to them again

leaden ginkgo
oak lily
#

Also show them the Bahamut cutscene

open coral
remote lintel
#

but tbh i think the best way to play ff14 is to go into it completely blind

oak lily
#

End of an Era was another big one for me

warm snow
open coral
warm snow
tulip chasm
#

its either you give up at ARR or turn into a walking advertisment for the game

warm snow
#

You can tell them it's worth it and that it's legit one of the best rpgs out there but as the saying goes, you can lead the horse to water but you can't make it drink

remote lintel
#

i honestly didnt have a problem making an account and it's pretty simple if you tell them how to do it

leaden ginkgo
#

Let me just send a message in our Discord group.

open coral
#

But yeah, bottom line is - you can't make them want to play the game. You can try to lure them into it by making it look fun and cool, but it's going to come down to whether they choose to play.

oak lily
warm snow
#

Tell them about the cool shit you do and your favourite parts

tulip chasm
#

"you can backflip off ledges"

remote lintel
#

~~tell them you can mod the game cz_smug ~~

warm snow
#

Friends usually love seeing their friends gush about shit they lovr

#

Hell, wow players gushing about shit they've found to love in 14 is practically its own YouTube genre

oak lily
#

ā€œHey, you wanna see me kill a god? Wanna see me do it again?ā€

open coral
#

I love that genre

warm snow
#

Same

open coral
#

The "how did I spend so much time thinking this was a bad game" and "this is how you do story RIGHT" bits are my favorites

remote lintel
#

my fave is watching pyro cry and call it a weeb game

warm snow
#

One of the gods is named thal because the head of localisation is a fucking nerd and wanted to make "thals balls" a swear in game

#

Praise be to koji, King of the nerds

remote lintel
#

and then he made every npc speech bubble say that for the ps4 test build

terse thorn
#

What dungeon/raid/trial at level 50 do people farm for Ironworks gear?

remote lintel
#

roulettes

open coral
warm snow
#

Tell you gen-simp friends that the game doesn't have fomo

tulip chasm
terse thorn
warm snow
#

And crystal tower

open coral
tulip chasm
#

normal raid is 60

open coral
#

True

#

But the point still stands

#

Since Normal raid roulette is only worth 60 unless you get a first timer

warm snow
#

Dudes asking about ironworks aura

leaden ginkgo
#

I just sent out a message in my server. Now I'll just have to wait...

terse thorn
#

so this is whta I have seen

#

how do you get the 1.1k poetics?

#

im mildly confused

tulip chasm
#

thats the roulette bonus

faint flare
#

Literally just do 50/60/70/80 content

warm snow
#

Well the content itself still gives poetics

open coral
#

Those are just the bonus. You also get a quantity for each of the instances baseline.

faint flare
#

Literally all of them give it

warm snow
#

So any alliance raid will give 100

open coral
#

So you get 500 from MSQ roulette alone

tulip chasm
#

msq roulette gives a fat amount

warm snow
#

Dungeons in msq give 200 each

faint flare
#

So just spam whatever 50/60/70/80 dungeon or whatever you like doing

#

After roulettes

terse thorn
#

so can you infinitely spam them for infinite rewards?

#

like minus daily bonus obviously

faint flare
#

Not roulettes

#

Content directly

warm snow
#

50 dungeons give a small amount but give 100 if there's a first timer in the party

open coral
#

You won't get the bonus after the first run per day, but you get the content rewards normally..

warm snow
#

Same for 50 trials

faint flare
#

Roulettes don't give you shit after the daily run

#

!faq poetics

zinc orbitBOT
faint flare
#

warm snow
#

And this is all BEFORE the roulette bonus

faint flare
#

Shit grows on trees

tulip chasm
#

id say just do them as you go and you'll eventually get enough poetics

last kayak
#

which is the one female voice option we were supposed to avoid again? I remember there's one that just makes annoying sounds all of the time in combat but its only like a singular one or somethin

tulip chasm
#

there's a lot of female voices

#

you gotta specify the race

twilit arch
#

miqo'te voice 5 is the well known one

#

pretty sure lalafell has it as well

warm snow
#

Anything that's actually bad enough to piss/creep most people off/out is usually fixed

twilit arch
#

but most people afaik don't use it so its not as a common like "oh god"

warm snow
#

Old lady viera and obnoxious bunny Bois come to mind

tulip chasm
#

wasn't that viera

#

yea

last kayak
#

Is there one for elf lady to avoid?

twilit arch
#

not really

tulip chasm
#

god some viera voices were..

jade quartz
#

Old lady Viera was patched out

twilit arch
#

requires people to actually play fem elezen...

warm snow
#

Just pick one you like

open coral
#

They changed the Link bunboy voice

#

But yeah, just pick a voice you like.

#

You're the one who has to listen to it the most

last kayak
#

its not about just picking one I like lol. Some of them, I think Miqo 5 as mentioned before, have this thing where they just won't shut up in combat all of the time

obsidian patio
#

I recommend using alts or looking up the voice

#

Since the samples they give you ingame don’t have the voice for attacking

terse thorn
#

should you use poetic on your first character?

remote lintel
#

In FFXIV, characters make random "battle shouts/grunts" when fighting--you hear them constantly.
This video covers all FEMALE ELEZEN voice clips you hear on the character creation screens as well as all battle voices that you hear in combat.

So just use 'em

Poetic gear is the best stuff at 50/60/70/80

it just seems like it will take a bit

open coral
#

Oh my god, get your level 45 class gear at least

#

Do you job quests

#

Get the gear

remote lintel
#

if thats your first job then you cant get poetics

#

you need to be 50

and cleared the msq dungeons

#

Can you buy lvl 50 poetics gears without getting to lvl 50 MSQ though? They might be capped and unable to spend them otherwise.

boreal storm
#

No

remote lintel
#

no

terse thorn
remote lintel
#

then yes

warm snow
remote lintel
#

always spend poetics

warm snow
#

At all

open coral
#

You can get poetics by spamming Wanderer's Palace upon reaching level 50 without MSQ

boreal storm
#

Prae/castrum are the very first poetic dungeons

last kayak
#

yeah, they said its their first char, so unsure if they can even buy that stuff yet.

open coral
#

It's a terrible drop rate, but you can do it

boreal storm
#

We just said they couldn’t

last kayak
#

every day with you fuilt. every damned day.

you can though

#

you just need to be lvl50 to earn poetics

Wanderer's Palace spam

terse thorn
#

according to the reddit post

#

I need like 4055 poetics

#

isn't that a LOT?

remote lintel
#

you dont need a full set

open coral
#

That's 2x cap and a bit

warm snow
twilit arch
#

you do not need a full set of ironworks

#

esp as a new player

#

just grab the weapon, and chest/pants if you have access poetics

#

and continue on with msq

#

the gear given from it is more than serviceable

boreal storm
#

The msq gives you gear, if you didn’t know

twilit arch
#

a full set is nice but completely not required

warped nest
#

The game will reward you with i115 gears when you reach Heavensward

#

What Kael said

warm snow
#

In between expansion there's a sizable amount of msq and other content that was at level cap at the time. And having poeticd gear will make it a lot easier

terse thorn
#

The gap between end Arr and HW seems very large

open coral
#

@terse thorn You're not even wearing your level 45 class gear, which will be a big upgrade over what you're wearing for head/gloves/legs/feet

terse thorn
#

and im white mage

twilit arch
#

yes it makes it easier but no new player needs to go out of their way to farm a full set

boreal storm
#

It’s not

twilit arch
#

esp since they're new and the priority should ideally be on msq to begin with

#

and the gear given covers you just fine

warped nest
#

Do msq, and get Ironworks gear on the side

robust crow

just let poetics come to you naturally

you'll get tons and tons just doing dailies

As you earn more and more poetics

terse thorn

I will see how my stats change after

warped nest
#

Don't grind poetics

open coral
#

Just do that, do the 50 one to get the 50 set when you can, and then worry about poetics after you get to that point in the MSQ

warped nest
#

The i90 you get from lvl 50 job quest will do for now

#

Then just slowly work toward ironwork as you progress story

#

Except the weapon

#

Grab that ASAP

#

Arr doesn't give you shit for weapons

warped nest
#

Fair point

open coral
#

Finishing both the Castrum Meridianum and Praetorium instances at the end of the 2.0 MSQ will give you exactly enough poetics to grab that weapon

So don't spend your first 300 poetics from Castrum right away

had a whm in a 50 dungeon with a level 40 weapon it was painful, not their fault but it hurt

I mean I had a level 42 weapon at level 45 but

this is my weapon rn

Coerthan Sidequests | Required Level: 41

why that dungeon?

It is lvl 44

You'll get upgrades for a lot of your gear there

boreal storm

It gives lvl 44ish gear

open coral
#

Like that chest piece from Brayflox you're wearing

warped nest
#

A small handful of dungeons are not part of the story, so you have to do side quests to unlock them

boreal storm
#

It’s also a leveling dungeon, so for alt jobs it’ll be used to level

It's good interim gear until you can get your class gear and poetics gear.

terse thorn

I mean I will be 50 sooner than later

But what's your MSQ level?

boreal storm

Still you want gear close to your lvl

Sometime down the line, you might want to level other jobs too

warped nest
#

Might as well do the unlock when you are at it

open coral
#

Ehhh, I mean, you can unlock the dungeon, or just do the MSQ and your job quests and you'll be okay.

#

It's just useful to have it unlocked

#

Aurum Vale when you hit 47 as well.

boreal storm
#

Also there’s gonna be a lvl gap between msq coming up, so having these unlocked will definitely help

If he's two levels ahead of MSQ, he'll probably be okay tbh

The walls are still there, but they're not as significant.

I'm doing my 45 job quest for WHM right now, I guess I will detour to the 44 dungeon, MSQ to 47, then do the 47 dungeon

Hey everyone! Help me be a better Tank! I'm a GNB lvl 70. Started playing when Endwalker dropped. I've been playing Aurum Vale for moogle event. I always run out of CDs in the first room. I stick by the walls and tell everyone to avoid the ads and we wipe 40 % of the time in the first room. Am I doing this wrong? I use Arm's length and reprisal if we accidentally pull too many. It's usually because someone is standing in the wrong place. Then I'll use rampart and aurora when my 1st set of CDs run out. I always end up using potions to survive. I try to save nebula and No Mercy for the 1st boss because I can get it down by a quarter if I do it right. If we don't wipe in the 1st room, we wipe at the first boss. I EAT my fruit ALL the time. I don't let my stacks get more past 3. What am I doing wrong?

open coral
#

You're doing AV

faint flare
#

You're not being healed

open coral
#

That's how AV goes

covert narwhal
#

I watched so many videos to be better and I feel like I suck at it

open coral
#

Nope

faint flare
#

Have your healer heal

open coral
#

It's not that you're doing anything wrong, per se

obsidian patio
#

Don’t save damage cooldowns for bosses

open coral
#

AV just sucks, in general.

covert narwhal
#

I got chided by a healer for not using CDs I thought maybe I'm using the wrong ones

obsidian patio
#

You’ll get more uses out of them when using them for trash too

faint flare
#

There's no such thing

open coral
#

But also yeah, like Wynne said, don't save your cds

covert narwhal
#

Why not?

faint flare
#

As wrong cooldowns

open coral
#

No reason to

covert narwhal
#

Even No mercy?

#

I usually save that one for the boss

obsidian patio
#

It’s only a minute cooldown

faint flare
#

More damage on trash = it dies faster

open coral
#

!action no mercy

zinc orbitBOT
#
**No Mercy** : lvl 2 GNB (60.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Increases damage dealt by 20%.
Duration: 20s

obsidian patio
#

Dungeons are typically 15 minutes long if wipes don’t happen

faint flare
#

= you take less damage

open coral
#

60s is like, no time at all

faint flare
#

Bosses are fucking pathetic

open coral
#

!action rampart

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Rampart** : lvl 8 GLA MRD PLD WAR DRK GNB (90.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Reduces damage taken by 20%.
Duration: 20s

faint flare
#

You blow everything on trash

open coral
#

Rampart's got a longer cd than no mercy

faint flare
#

Trash is infinitely more deadly

covert narwhal
#

So don't save No mercy for the boss? I'll try that

faint flare
#

Faster shit dies, less damage you take

#

Simple law

open coral
#

Also

covert narwhal
#

Yes! Those floating jelly fish things are killer

open coral
#

For the event tomes farm... get three BLU to back you up

covert narwhal
open coral
#

Shit will die so fast you won't have a chance to take damage

faint flare
#

Or gets frozen before hand

covert narwhal
#

Is it rude to tell people to stick by the walls b4 we start?

open coral
#

People should know that

#

If they don't, they deserve death

faint flare
#

You're expected to stick to walls

covert narwhal
#

I had a dps run doen the middle I was like nooooo

faint flare
#

They're stupid as shit

covert narwhal
#

I don't blame the dps, I thought maybe i should warn them before hand

open coral
#

Most people already know

faint flare
#

Literally anyone who knows AV knows to stick to the wall

open coral
#

The ones who don't, either learn fast, or die

#

If they do it more than once, then you might want to say something

#

But don't bother at the very beginning of the instance

#

That'll just annoy people

true jolt
# covert narwhal Even No mercy?

Usually if you wall to wall it took almost 1 min so by the time you reach boss No Mercy already back up.

Even if you pull per mob, it will up early on boss pull at worst case so dont worry about saving it

terse thorn
#

How useful is Holy as WHM?

covert narwhal
open coral
faint flare
#

You should be spamming it

open coral
#

It's your trash spam spell

obsidian patio
#

Holy is 7 whole seconds of stun on trash pulls

covert narwhal
#

Thanks everyone!

faint flare
#

Constantly

#

Whenever 3+ mobs exist

obsidian patio
#

It’s a discount tank immunity for every pull

terse thorn
#

mine is lower I guess

faint flare
#

You stun them 3 times

covert narwhal
open coral
#

It's a consecutive stun

faint flare
#

Each with diminishing returns

covert narwhal
#

I'll use it early next time

open coral
#

You can spam it 4 times before diminishing returns kick in

faint flare
#

3 stuns

#

Going 4, 2, 1s

open coral
#

4s > no effect > 2s > 1s

tulip chasm
#

frogs in aurum are also kind of ass

open coral
#

Second hit always comes during the 4s from the first one

#

So you can spam it four times

covert narwhal
#

One more question. I know I can stun the first boss. My team dies from the cleaves. Is there a tell when it's going to cleave my Teammates? There's no tell before the cleave I think only gold dust

open coral
#

If it's facing them

faint flare
#

Their fault if they're infront

#

That's literally rule 1

covert narwhal
#

Ahhh so when it turns away from me.

#

ok

open coral
#

Always face the boss towards a wall when you can

faint flare
#

Don't be infront of the boss as a dps if it known to cleave

open coral
#

Never towards the party

holy spam worked well

# covert narwhal I feel so stupid saving it now

Its okay ahaha. We are all noob at one point.

The only case i will hold no mercy is when somehiw there is one or two mob that alive due to uneven aoe dmg from party and have like <20%HP. I hold that no mercy for boss / next group so I can get full benefit of that 20 sec instead only some of it

tulip chasm
obsidian patio
#

Yeah I only hold damage cooldowns at the tail end of pulls

#

Where most of the duration is wasted from going to the next pack

#

It’s something you slowly learn to eyeball/watch out when you get the idea of your groups DPS

terse thorn
#

mans keeps pulling too many mobs

#

I can't heal all this

covert narwhal
#

Thank you! Awesome tips everyone! Yay!

open coral
#

As the tank to pull smaller then

#

Most tanks will be accommodating

faint flare
#

Isn't that like at the start

#

Of the dungeon

terse thorn
#

yea

open coral
#

Also, that looks like you're taking the eye's AoE at full strength

terse thorn
#

that's the bad part

faint flare
#

Cause why the fuck aren't you standing In the crystal lights

true jolt
open coral
#

So the tank isn't pulling into the crystal aura

terse thorn
faint flare
#

Stand on the crystal light

#

You take legit 0 dmg

#

Or close to

#

Then 1 or.2 cure 2s is enough

#

Slap a regen or something while running

open coral
#

That AoE does 1k damage to everyone if you're not in the aura and 0 to anyone in it

#

Yeah, they're all in the aura, you're not

#

That's the blue icon

terse thorn
#

and I got randomly flung

faint flare
#

One of the mobs did a knockback

#

Probably stood in an aoe

lone totem
#

the boss also cleaves

#

if the tank is new and the healer is new and all the dps arent explaining the dungeon then DD can be a nightmare

#

its old dungeon design mentality where they thought having a dungeon that required a brain was a good idea

#

because it was an "extra dungeon"

#

similar to CC and AV

#

not saying you don't have a brain, it's just that the dungeons are just difficult for a first time clear if everyone is new

#

because the mechanics are punishing enough to force you to restart

#

and generally if you restart a dungeon, after two or three restarts they just leave

jade quartz
#

It’s normal to pull absolutely everything in the first corridor of Dzemael Darkhold all the way up to the first boss. Standing in the crystal glow gives a buff that reduces damage by an insane amount.

#

As a healer you’re expected to handle that

#

And to be honest it shouldn’t be any trouble even for a new healer

#

The damage coming out is easily manageable provided everyone is indeed inside the crystal glow.

terse thorn
#

I think the tank was a noob or got pushed

#

cause he wasn't able to go into the purple crystal 90% of the time

jade quartz
#

In the image you showed above you were the only one not in the crystal glow

terse thorn
#

oh lol

#

at least I will know for future runs

faint flare
#

If they're dying while running just slap a regen on them

jade quartz
#

It’s shown as the little blue buff icon of the eyeball guy

terse thorn
#

It's harsher for a Healer to be a noob towards something rather than other roles I feel

#

cause I am semi-responsible for everyone else living

jade quartz
#

Ideally they would have said something

#

ā€œStand in the crystal glow area, it reduces damage by a lotā€

#

If they could see you were new

terse thorn
#

yeah literally none of them spoke

jade quartz
#

Yeah not your fault, it’s not necessarily the most obvious

terse thorn
#

on our dungeon run

#

we didn't even get the other random chests

like there is more than just the chest per boss kill

'Which world should I pick?'

You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.

The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.

If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.

Notable worlds:

  • Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
  • Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
  • Moogle (Large amount of French players)
  • Shiva (Large amount of German players)
    ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY

False reports are a thing, but like the GMs aren’t idiots

#

if the player doesnt actually type anything saying they are intentionally griefing, all the actual griefing wont amount to any punishment.

#

thats how its always been

#

but I'll leave it here, its not channel approp anyways

Is the Hydraulic in ||Ultima Thule|| for anything in particular?

Okay, feel like that name doesn't really give anything away though. I could say vanilla pudding and it would make just as much sense to anyone not in the know.

#

is there a way to assign a personal marker over a target? Such as when a DNC assigns someone as a dance partner and wants to be ever-present of where they are on the battlefield?

limber hound
#

Focus target can achieve that

narrow jay
#

Cognizant; but no, markers are party-wide, so if the dancer marks a player to track them, everyone will see it.

limber hound
#

just that there can only be one at a time

last kayak
#

too bad. Guess I will just use a macro and hope that the other party members dont overwrite it

open coral
#

For the record, you don’t need to be anywhere near your dance partner for the effect to work

#

So I’m not sure why you’d need to mark your partner

last kayak
#

it helps when you're trying to stack for Curing Waltz.

#

a nifty tool to have in places like bozja.

open coral
#

Ehh

last kayak
#

it is what it is

#

wasnt really looking for an opinion on it

Guys help me out here

#

How do you create a free trial account on steam as of now?

#

This game always had problems on account creation

#

Someone approached me with an error that would be fixed by creating the account directly on the steam launcher

#

But it seems that's isnt an option anymore?

#

Do you create the account on the SE site then link to your steam account and you good?

#

How come the license error comes up?

remote lintel
#

you download the trial on steam and then launch it and click create new square enix account

#

and it opens your browser

past plinth
#

Yeah normally but he sent me this

remote lintel
#

did he miss any of those steps that i just said

#

is it the trial launcher

past plinth
#

You can't download the other launcher without buying the game so I assume it is

#

You can buy the game without an account though so the creating option should appear anyway

!faq mogstation

oak lily
#

Did he make a mogstation account

leaden ginkgo
#

can you solo arr alliance raids later on?

oak lily
#

No

leaden ginkgo
#

:c

oak lily
#

You need at least 3 people

past plinth
#

Confirmed it's the right launcher, does he need a mogstation account or making one was the mistake?

boreal storm
#

Sometimes More because mechanics

leaden ginkgo
#

mogstation account is required

odd wraith
#

What is this beautiful furnishing called

#

Also, is there a furnishing channel maybe? Not sure if I am blind or there just isn't one.

past plinth
#

can confirm he has a mog account and there it says free trial, really dont know hwre to go from here

boreal storm
#

Just free trial

#

Not free trial (steam)?

past plinth
#

yeah, and there lies the problem huh

boreal storm
#

!faq freetrial

zinc orbitBOT
boreal storm
#

Just give them that link

umbral dune
#

If he register on the website, i dont think he can select steam

past plinth
#

that link is the non steam free trial right? thats a problem cause for us the steam eventual payment if he buys the game, is cheaper

#

I guess try to unlink and link a steam free trial is his only choice

boreal storm
#

You can transfer to steam later

#

But if you want to play the trial right now, you’ll have to use what was linked

past plinth
#

you can only transfer after buying?

umbral dune
#

No only free trial (non steam) to steam full version, that is the only one allowed, no other way

pure copper
#

so i got hte 30min leave penalty already today for missing 3 DF queues...if i miss 1 more, is there another punishment, or does it come at another 3 missed?

twilit arch
#

its another 30min penalty

boreal storm
#

If you complete a duty, the penalty count resets

last kayak
#

any way to view a characters 'search info' if you aren't in a party with them or any other type of group?

remote lintel
#

if you have them friended

last kayak
#

fair enough, ty

cursive ridge
#

for example

#

why the 'view search info' is not on the target actions list when you can do that, i have no idea

#

maybe because of cross-server players but you would think wanderers show up in that search too

#

my only guess is that Player Search is a very database intensive request and they want to hide it as far as possible so fewer players use it

leaden ginkgo
#

So for leveling fisher. Is the only good way of leveling it that boat thing in limsa?

cursive ridge
#

i levelled with quests and grand company turn-ins. it took some time but why rush it

twilit arch
#

you can do leves and collectables (50+ for collectables) if you want

#

but ocean fishing is seriously the easiest and most painless way of leveling it, even if its an every 2hr thing

#

stat requirements are pretty low so you can get by with shit gear, don't really have to worry about bait

leaden ginkgo
cursive ridge
#

fish are barely used in any recipes, there's like a dozen worthwhile ones and that's it

#

it's really off to the side as its own thing

leaden ginkgo
#

The main crafter I like is culinary

twilit arch
#

even cul doesn't really require fish that much

boreal storm
#

Ocean fish have no use either

cursive ridge
#

which is a tiny step up from MOST (like easily 90% or more) regular fish having no use either

twilit arch
#

current end-game cul food doesn't require any fish afaik, and even if it did generally it would be easier to just buy the fish

cursive ridge
#

yeah all the fish that are used in recipes or quests are usually botted and sold for pennies

boreal storm
#

The CuL leve people do for money doesn’t even want fish

potent lava
#

there a way to sorta to force certain actions to face to enemy when casted on legacy controls? things like passage of arms or BLU's Supernakha or Flurry Kick

remote lintel
#

all attacks automatically face the enemy assuming you have the thing ticked in settings

#

which is on by default

#

oh you mean the not attacks

#

passage has no target so it only does it behind you

patent citrus
#

those things, you have to aim lol

cursive ridge
#

those turn you to face the enemy

#

and i think most emotes dont do animation locks

#

(just make sure to toggle /emotelog off to not annoy everybody around you)

obsidian patio
#

Or use a simple target macro

#

You can also add ā€œmotionā€ to the macro to take out the text

cursive ridge
#

you can target untargerable cones?

obsidian patio
#

Just a simple target with nothing specified

#

Or a textless emote macro

#

Like this
/yes motion

cursive ridge
obsidian patio
#

Lemme find the exact command line

#

It’s not the target placeholder

#

/facetarget

#

Or /ft

cursive ridge
#

that's neat

ooh that works, thanks

heady knot
#

are there any list somewhere about waht is there to grind for fc stuff

obsidian patio
#

In terms of FC credits/levels? Run the highest level dungeon that you can easily solo and turn the gear in for GC seals.

#

With a level 90 DPS, that’s probably the stormblood leveling dungeons

leaden ginkgo
#

does anyone know at which expansions they stopped giving a fantasia with collectors edition?

#

i think both arr and hw had one

solemn jewel
#

No only one of them

twilit arch
#

only HW had one

leaden ginkgo
#

i had 2 fantasia

#

and bought none

#

did hw have 2?

twilit arch
#

No

solemn jewel
#

You get one for finishing ARR

twilit arch
#

ARR gives you a free fantasia when you complete the main scenario quest "The ultimate weapon"

leaden ginkgo
#

ohh

#

yeah that must be it then

#

so why they stopped? at least it would have made sense for shadowbringers

#

to include one

solemn jewel
#

It was a one-time thing for 1 collectors edition

#

I'd rather have a collectors edition with actual collectors items and not something u can buy all the time for 10 quid

leaden ginkgo
#

i mean hw had that too

#

its not like the other collecots stuff has more

#

its still mount, minion and stuff like that

twilit arch
#

shrug because they decided not to

leaden ginkgo
#

also you can still get all the collectors stuff

#

at least i can still upgrade my stormblood to digital CE

boreal storm
#

It’s cheaper to just buy a Fanta if you want to swap

solemn jewel
#

yes, theres an upgrade system

#

Plus, the fantas are account bound, means u get them on every character u create

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah but you cant send them over i assume :P

solemn jewel
#

if each CE had a fanta you'd end up with 4 accountbound fantas everytime u make an alt, thats overkill.

leaden ginkgo
#

does the upgrade apply to expansions you get "for free" with the latest purchase? if i buy endwalker today can i still upgrade the included shadowbringer?

twilit arch
#

yes

leaden ginkgo
#

well for the expansions that feature a new race it would make sense

solemn jewel
#

Yes but its each seperately

boreal storm
#

You upgrade each expansion separately

solemn jewel
#

no if u want to switch race u buy the fantasia from the store

leaden ginkgo
#

well id say it was included with hw because they want people to try the new race

#

so it would have made sense to do it with shadowbringers too

vagrant sentinel
#

Anyone got some recommended options for making Gil? Should I run that tower of the dead for glamour gear? (I’m currently going through HWs)

remote lintel
#

do msq

vagrant sentinel
remote lintel
#

msq gives you well over a million

#

thers not many options if youre not max lvl

vagrant sentinel
#

Hmm okay that sucks, ty though.

fierce karma
#

so while levelling i should just completely ignore all the collectible/scrip stuff right?
