I've been playing around with archer/rdm and samurai
and i'll want to pick up reaper too when I hit 70
it does not complete msq but it will complete job quests
but yes, job boost gives Cryptlurker stuff
Can I redo them?
but you can replay job quests with new game+
in NG+
also the msq levels you
like
you never grind for levels
unless youre leveling an alt job and you already did msq
you can go back
10 levels doesnt take long to do but if you really hate leveling then yeah
!faq armouryexp
'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'
As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 90 for the bonus to be active.
'How much is the bonus experience?'
You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 79, which then reduces to +50% for level 80 to 89. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.
also dancer and gunbreaker already start at 60 so dont buy skips for those
I was thinking of it as I wouldn't have to level the other 20 levels ontop of the 10 lvls, cause it'd put me at 80
idk I just really hate dungeons/leveling
Anyone have a red mage hotbar setup I can download?
well, you gotta do dungeons
idm as a one off for story
you can level like 2 jobs at a time with msq and exp buffs
you can be lazy about leveling. do leveling/alliance/msq roulette once a day
beast tribe dailies, maybe a dungeon or two
don't have to do 10 dungeons in a row if you don't want to, and you'll level at a decent pace
if a boss has a long cast raidwaid, does my reprisal need to go be on the enemy before it starts the cast or before the cast ends?
before the last like, third
mch was considered the "rework" job for shb like smn for ew?
depending on your ping it snapshots at like 90-95%
but i would just do it at least 2 seconds before it snapshots
yes. the job is completely different from stormblood to shb
I never tried weekly fashion event(?) but what's the reward? Is it worth it?
for how much effort you gonna put, definitely worth it
How much mgp?
50k for 80+ and 10k for participating
Oh wow
60k total for getting at least 80 points
Whats the best way to grind Tomestones
which tomestones
Scripture
Moogle tomes
3 blus and a tank in aurum vale
And the lazy way is just do msq roulette and frontline dailies
Where can I find HUD/hotbar layouts to download and install?
I just watched a million and one bots spawning in Zurvan Limsa on Materia, is there nothing I can do about that?
They’ll get dealt with, go about your day

Disappointing, but oh well ._.
I think nexus mods has some
maybe xivmodarchive
found it
Hello!
Question regarding the first half of stormblood.
I heard it has serious pacing issues.
How bad is it? ARR level bland? Or more like lvl50-60 stormblood class quests?
Okay
Hey friends, where can I go to ask for help on a trial? been stuck in que for so long : (
What trial is it
Crown of Immaculate
is it ex
ex or normal
first time so im gonna say normal :0
Hmm. That should pop.
It's almost 5pm in Australia right? Might try again in an hour
yeah... :/
i mean ex would say "extreme" in the title
but its not really a popular trial in the first place
so you just gotta wait
I had a 95m que for the last shadowbringers trial LOL
It's in roulettes so it should fill i think
okok!
Just gotta waitus for queue popus
BUT
To make you feel better I shall say
I waited 5 hours for Titania 
I know your pain 
Otherwise ask in uh oce channel if someone has time

Technically I got a pop in 2
But we had a lvl 80 healer in shire gear 
And the other wasn't experienced enough to solo heal
So we vote disband
thats just how it is for late shb stuff now
wait, how is that possible?
doesn't it have an ilvl requirement?
Wait till you find out you can go naked into leveling trials

Love me some 90 with a healer in cryptlurker 
89*
Not 90
Hey all a p1s question. I keep messing this up and getting dd. During second intempt when he is doing the chains can I resolve both the donut and circle combo without dying? Like can I exit mid and return without dying to crystal burst?
why would you return to the middle
For if he does the donut
you should be moving through the middle square during the donut aoe
Yes.
The resolve order is 1st Cells / 2nd Cells / whips / 3rd Cells
You have time to reposition if the first whip is the circle
Ok so I can avoid the "bad" crystal burst still right
yes
you should be waiting in the middle square regardless of what the first aoe is
Yes. They wouldn't have designed the fight to prevent you from passing it.
since the cubes resolve first
Ok sweet. That helps a ton
You can also be in the safe spot for the donut chain attack while standing in your outer square.
nod
You don’t need to run all the way in for it.
albeit the safe spot is tiny
The safe area is large
It’s really not tiny
If you’re in a corner square just stand in the inner corner

Even if your safe spot is one of the North intercardinals (like mine is) and you have to hit South for 2nd Cells, you have more than enough time to path back to your spot in time.
And if you’re on a NSEW square then just stand towards the inner edge, spot is huge
It’s consistently doable and shouldn’t be treated with fear
If it's circle whip first, I swing out to the side and tightrope back in for the donut. If it's donut first, I go through the center and out.
i feel like i got clipped by it when i was like
The boss's hitbox ensures that there's a very comfortable melee-range safe spot in each corner for the donut.
probably should budge in just a skooch then lol
yeah so it is kinda teeny
ive been having to do flex recently and hes just barely within reach in the corner square and its a pain in the ass

how do you get the currency to buy bozja gear
depends on which set
what does that mean
With coins from DR/Dal depending on which set, can't remember if CLL gives some too or not
i have no idea what any of that means
DR = delibrum reginae, the raid
Dalriada and castrum lactic licore (I dunno) are big CEs
doing Bozjan content
Ye
CE?
Fates.
WELL
Special ones. Critical Engagements; they spawn depending on the zone activity
and you have to sort of short-queue for them
regular fates -> CE which unlocks the bigger thingies?
are these locked behind the bozja msq thing
Progressively, yes.
...and how long would that take
you need to not take a vuln stack
The story unlocks the zone in general, and you gain access to more tiers and more story as you rank up in the zone.
Can probably do save the queen quest line in a few days? 
That's solo CEs, Woods, but yes. As a "reward" for not taking avoidable damage during a CE, you may get selected to do a solo CE, which can be difficult depending on your level of preparation.
hey so theres an article up on ffxiv website stating that players on JP datacentre will receive free character transfers from 31st march (due to the re-organisation of the JP datacentre), are free trial characters eligible for this?
if you die during one does that count as taking a vuln stack
its avoidable
You don't need to do solo instances tho
No, you still must be a subscriber to transfer servers.
damn T.T, thanks!

i'm not doing the solo stuff
You will die, but it'll be fine
Does frontlines or levelling roulette give more exp
depends
both give about the same
yeah seems like it, thanks
i think frontline is half a level always, not sure about leveling roulette
if you get something like ifirt it can be less, but a on level dungeon in leveling roulette is even more then a win in frontline
The game won't let me log in ( Ive changed password still didnt work)
did you use your mogstation login
Are u leave one time password blank?
Yes
No
yes
Yes
Mmm they've been having some issues since you had to link, but think the fix was just to change password, which you've already done
why does ariyala toolkit for BLU only allows up to level 50?
so its just broken
Does your steam user have special characters, even stuff like -
no
yes
Welp only other solution I found was doing a fresh install
Did u successfully link the right mog account
That looks to be just for the base stats of your character which I would guess stops increasing at 50
or stops at 50 for blu 
I compared it to my level 60 BLU with same gear and the stats are lower for some reason
whats a good way to earn Crystal Sand.
Blue scrips is a quick and cheap way if you got crafter/gatherer
blue scrips from custom deliveries via white scrip trade
gather or craft
nvm after the 20th forget password it worked but it said subscription expired it was a free trail
whats a good way to earn white crafting scrip as level 75 blacksmith
i already did it
crystarium deliveries if you haven't already done them
other than that, just farm Rowena collectables
where is crystarium deliveries starting
and what item should i make
all my hand skill are 70
Crystarium, crystalline means
have you entered shadowbringers?
Then u just have collectables
then you can't do crystarium deliveries
Could I bother someone for Astro res macro help?
I'm not sure if mine is working and I don't wanna find out in the wrong time it doesn't xD
No need to make a res macro
I mainly just want to use a macro so text pops up to say who am I rezzing
I'm not gonna tie swiftcast to it
just text and then Ascend
To avoid double rezzing in stuff
what's the macro
/ac “Ascend” <t>
/p Whatever you wanna write <t>
/micon “Ascend”
I found it with google, lol.
I have no ingame friends to ask rn :p
should work just fine
!action ascend
Yeah i figured out its the quotes
removed it
but now its saying the same about <t>
that's weird, I didn't think quotes would matter for single word skills
Well if you don't have a target
isn't <t> used to post the name of who am i rezzing?
then you're going to get errors
Ah.
it's an argument in your statement

target yourself, it should still work
type the /ac Ascend line 15 times
repeat it as many times as the macro will let you
To make sure it casts?
ye
Okay done
yes, it alleviates slightly some macro funkiness
/ac Ascend <t> /ac Ascend <t> /ac Ascend <t> /ac Ascend <t> /ac Ascend <t> /ac Ascend <t> /ac Ascend <t> /ac Ascend <t> /ac Ascend <t> /ac Ascend <t> /ac Ascend <t> /ac Ascend <t> /ac Ascend <t> /p Ascend, <t>! This isn't cheap, ya'know! /micon Ascend
Also just a neat tip, don't make it snarky
its not that the quotes matter its that they're weird...uh style idk words quotes
eh whatever, they can do what they want with the res message
Eh, I'll figure out an actually not dumb text once I know it works
Testing it on dummies doesn't work tho, lol.
ofc not
cos its not a dead target
unless you can go find a dead player in the open world to test it on, you're pretty much going to have to wait until you get into an instance
someone here said to test it on one but the message is gone now

Who volunteers?

Hope it would work, thanks folks
Imma go to Bojza to find someone ded to check
Oh yeah I think it'd work, the game automatically changed the macro icon to Ascend's icon
do also keep in mind, the message isn't going to show either until you're in a party as well
why can't I trade bozja coins to the supplier?
is it impossible to change my chocobo companion's name?
pretty sure who give it to you can change it
oh nice
Choco npc in starter city
If I haven't cleared P3S, can someone ferry me into P4S?
Even if I have never cleared P3S before?
correct, you skip a floor for the week, you loose out on the loot from that floor for the week
when weekly lockout is enabled for the current savage, you must clear in order every week to not forfeit loot
For jobs that have less ogcd and more gcd do u increase the skill speed like to max 🤔
nah
BLM/SMN/AST are the only jobs that really use a lot of sps for their builds
jobs like MNK and SAM dont want to go fast bc then you lose out on big damage
also most jobs tend to have hard 60s/120s skills, so sks on those skills is not worth much
mnk is among the lowest gcd, largely due to greased lightning
and there is a fast sam set up
ye but thats still 2.0
not even close to 1.5
ye thats what they were asking
mostly taking umbrage with 'don't want to go fast'
you're correct, melding sk/ps to the max is not what any job realistically wants, as tiers are a thing as well so neglecting other stats is not ideal

is it even possible to get longer recast timer than the base recast timer?
bootshine supposed to have 2.00s recast timer right?
What level are you
60
monk get traits that lower recast time
global cooldown by default is 2.5s
you don't have the final one yet
mnks will naturally have lower gcd due to greased lightning
ohh even if it doesn't show in the tooltip, it's actually way lower?
no, what it shows in the tooltip is what your gcd is at
no, it shows, you just need to be higher level to get the final Greased Lightning that will reduce it further
it takes traits into consideration
now if you were on say nin instead, the tooltip would change depending on whether you have suiton up or not
Is there a way to disable the slow backward movement when you're pressing S and D(or A) together on PC?
It's already legacy type for me.
That's uh loaded question
no, they're referring to the forced back peddle even on legacy if you try to go backwards at an angle
if you've changed A and D to strafe instead of turn camera, then you would have to use a plugin to do this
I was experiencing this exact same issue before I found that simpletweaks has a solution for it
oohhhhhh yea i changed A and D to strafe left/right. ahhhh i see! alright I'll check it out.
just play on controller lol
ah, ok. I use default controls and do not experience that. If I try to Q/E and S It hppens
A and D to turn camera is effectively two wasted keybinds
the defaults are kinda stupid
most PC players will be turning camera via right click
which is why I suggest changing A and D to strafe, freeing up Q and E for skill keybinds
Ahhhh this feels so much better! Thank you! 
so may QoL changes they can implement ingame >_< but at least we have mods to tweak them.
I want to upgrade from free trial to full account. My region is Europe and i got HW for European account from humble bundle. I just need to get the base game. I have some old key from a bundle in 2016 that doesn't mention anything about region. If I try to redeem it the worst it can happen is that I won't be able to, it can't mess up the region somehow, right?
https://support.humblebundle.com/hc/en-us/articles/215857787-Humble-Square-Enix-Bundle-3-Final-Fantasy-XIV-A-Realm-Reborn-Key-Redemption-Instructions
I believe so, se support would probably know better
Why even have Strafe L/R as A/D on legacy when the default Move L/R does the same thing. Unless you remapped them when control type was standard and didn't restore them when switching to legacy.
no, that was a geniuine question, I just didn't see this message that explained it.
Is there a !faq thhat explains role bonuses? Afaik as I know its like 1% dmg and more lvgeneration buff per role present. Is there anything more?
nope das about it
Ty
How do you add the tags to your profile, like Tank, etc?
Thanks, Sasha!

how do you get higher level sparefishing gig?
That's the fun part, you don't
The items are character specific, but feathers are account wide
Pls don't post images here if irrelevant
Exactly
Yup
Well you can buy and use the horns etc but you can't use any mounts until then
..... L64 RDM here... Current MSQ is "An Uncertain Future". Issue; somehow I cannot get the quest to unlock the Ishgard Temple Leves... Completed the MSQ "The Better Half" quite some time ago, which seems to be the only pre-req. Anyone?
Did you boost past arr?
No?
Not going accusatory but sometimes that skips certain unlocks
define boost?
Have you tried going through arr zones and doing other leve unlocks?
Story skip
Don't have to do them all, but the
to unlock leve npcs might be necessary
Can't say for sure
Also ishgard leves are extra hot garbage
I just wanted to do the L50 crafting leves
in Ishgard because it's so close to a market
No, they're garbage cuz they have the stupid 10 leve ones
But idk why it's locked for you
Story skips are paid right? I never did that
Ye
the Manservant inside the Fortemps Manor doesn't have any quests for me
Boosts can fuck with certain unlocks and this is weird so was making guesses
which I read is the one that leads me to Eloin
Just follow msq for now I guess, wait for a
to show up in foundation?
The only thing i'm guessing is that I have not opened up all the leve zones
I have tons of those in the foundation
just not that one
Like... I just found out Hildibrand is back ugh LOL
Also unlocks a whole storyline with the inspector which is really fun and actually serious
That doesn't mean shit my dude
yet no leves in Ishgard :/
Idk why no leves tho, you sure you didn't unlock them already?
After arr it's not even an unlock quest, it's talk to blue bubble and unlock done
yeah leves in HW is in the cities afaik
Not there
look for any blue quest in the city
You're way off
It has it, including the unlock collectables that lead to custom delivery
10.1, 10.4 coordinates
look up the HW area if you want coord
but yeah, you can't miss it, it's a blue quest close to the aetheryte plaza
oh shi
Bruh
I won't say I'm judging you...
hold on
Go tf to sleep
👀 go to sleep, fam
Yuuuuup
Hehe...


No, I mean.. it's sorta close, to a market. Not as close as I originally thought, but close
@proven barn BTW combat leves stop existing after hw, so you'll need to unlock future leves as crafters or gatherers
I've yet to do a combat leve
usually just for fishing... but i'll eventually do it for other crafting
Use ocean fishing, that shits broken af for levelling
combat leves are kinda shit anyway
Always have been
i'm just lazy to fish lol
Yet I did them all
''Leves'' ? 🤔
semi-randomly generated, repeatable quests
Oh, gotcha
it's kinda weird
Came back two days ago, muscle memory doing the bunch of it
Should be an extra 1m exp
lol
but it's not
Also.... I didn't know minions have stat boosts...
wtf
oh... in the mini game
God I should sleep.
Thanks everyone lol
#1 that looks like gamer escape wiki which is shit and #2 probably pre stats squish numbers
Question, how much is the jump between the level 90 HQ crafted gear and the savage gear?
20 ilevels
the jump is big enough to matter in endgame content but it won't matter at all in anything below savage difficulty
maybe extreme too
It's not insignificant
Especially on pieces with more stats like weapon and chest piece

Roughly speaking, how long does it take to get from 0 to elemental coat of fending +1 on eureka?
Hmmm, I see, well, I guess I'll stay at 580 until I can actually farm savage stuff, because Savage gear is non tradable right?
A while
You'll need to finish 2 zones of relic weapon grind to even get the base armor
Can't really put a time frame on it since you're dependent on people doing these zones
Bummer
It'll also depend on eureka activity in your server
The coat looks pretty, Didnt know it was that bad to get it

Still easier than dyable laws order
I'll just grind it casually then, I was rushing it yesterday cuz I thought it was something I could get solo easily
It's not hard but it is grindy
So try not to burn yourself out
Eureka is inspired by ff11
Which is older than wow
So yeah old ass grindy shit
Oh and you'll need to unlock a Shitton of logograms
So hope you got a full wallet cuz otherwise that will be SUPER FUCKING GRINDY
Iirc once you do the full grind once, the rest is pretty easier to do
yeah, if you are casual like me. Just get the BiS armor from marketboard and then just do the Eureka challenge log once a week
Pyros and hydatos also let you naked reflect farm for ez levels
play a solo class like RDM/Healers/WAR if you don't want to rely too much on other people
My only worry is doing fates, yesterday crystal had a good amount of ppl grinding it, dont know how it is normally
Crystal should be more active than Light, assuming from population wise
but yeah to spawn FATE, you need to follow what the tracker tells you
kill a certain monster, follow the weather and time requirements, etc
If you online during peak time, It shouldn't be a problem
When is 6.1 again?
we don't know but best estimate is april 12th
... damn... guess i failed to get BiS on time...
cause they usually release major patches 2 weeks after the LL that talks about them (which is friday)
I mean the BiS will be the same in 6.1
new raid tier isn't until 6.2
yeah... but finding out the hard way PF gets worse the longer i take to do the latest content...
ultimate is released 2 weeks after 6.1 I reckon?
yea
so you have another 2 weeks to get full 600 if you want DRS (assuming that's what you are aiming)
DRS?
Shouldn't it be DSW?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
could someone help me palace of the dead 21-30 ? i am a healer and waited for near 1hr
Hello.
Question regarding Stormblood MSQ (Im just 2 quests away from starting it)
How long is the Ala Mhigan section, in terms of levels?
oh is it DSW 👀
i'm hoping the community will come up with something more creative
I'm still lacking the weapon for BiS myself, it's not a big deal
ult prog takes time anyway
considering we've had freakin UWU, UCOB, and TEA
people usually called it DSU (Dragonsong Ultimate) until now
but that was before we knew the actual ingame name
could someone help me palace of the dead 21-30 ? i am a healer and waited for near 1hr
i still find it funny how one of the ultimates is shortened to freakin UWU
4-5 levels total iirc, but it's not all in one place
the story is basically split between the far east and ala mhigo and will go back and forth
And only one of them is good
What it'll end up being abbreviated to is up in the air
you are playing in JP server, you enabled all languages and "Join party in progress"?
I'm still saying dsu
Not that kind of questions and help channel
yes i did that
duty finder right?
ah yeah, then it's waiting game
sorry i dont know
And it's what like midnight ish in jp?
yeah, but peak time usually ended at 1:00 JST
so duty finder or party finder is better?
shuold still a decent time
No 8pm
you mean ET time?
no JST
ST time?
No Japan time
it is 11:27 a.m now
You're playing on a Japanese server
Which means most people on the server are in japan
Doesn't matter where you are
Gotta understand where the people you're trying to matchmaker with are and what time it is for them
Vietnam isn't 11am now what
But yeah at this timing JP is starting to peak
Just got to wait. The floors between 11-50 always take long to queue
Dst?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Its fine 
Oh that explains
Gmt +0
when are you supposed to use seraph
when your shield isn't big enough?
whenever you have a heal intensive phase
JST = Japanese Standard Time, but for floor 21-30 I would recommend PF? you can use the auto-translate and put the number so people can understand
for leveling, people usually repeat 51-60, and to farm aetherpool, they use 51-100 usually
so 21-30 is a niche spot in the queue
ST = Server Time is GMT+0
How does SCH compare to SGE? In difficulty and effectiveness
different sides of the same coin
Ic. would SCH be difficult to pick up? Took me awhile to grasp SGE but now it's quite fun.
I didn't find it too hard coming from Whm
but its pretty slow-going until you get Excog at 62

SGE and SCH have quite alot of overlap actually
so if you are fine on SGE now you'll be fine on SCH too
Nice. I'll add SCH to my repertoire then
yeah when I tried SGE the first time, It was quite straight forward cause I understood a little bit about SCH too
as a shield healer like usual, just play proactively instead of reactively, so you won't have the luxury of "Wait the tank almost dead, then use bene or ED"
Most of your sge and scholar skills have an equivalent so maybe even copy paste your sage hotbars and read the sch tool tips so you can drag and drop your equivalents to the same spot
Compare potency and cooldown time
I put eukrasia where I put bio on sch
has how houses/plots are purchased changed in endwalker or is it still how people describe it in old reddit threads (auto-clicker for invisible timer, travelling from zone to zone looking for empty plot, try to get on at off-peak times to have a chance)
All the housing changes come in next patch
There's currently no auto demo due to current World events so there's basically no available housing til then
How do I reset my password when I dont know my security question? I'm trying to log in and keeps telling its incorrect even tho I'm certain I typed the right password 😦
if you don't remember your security questions the only thing you can do is to contact support
That's kinda why they tell you to make your security question something you'll remember
I never thought I'd have ''forget'' my pw lmao
I'm almost certain I put a random birthday too
Sadge
If ur details don't match ur fucked
ngl, in that case your chances of getting help from support are low
Congratulations, you played yourself
but still, they are your only chance
When resetting my acc the only thing saying its incorrect its the security question
So maybe my bday is correct
lmao, lets hope
Dob is what support will use to confirm your identity
just contact support and hope, nothing else you can do
If you've fucked it, you've fucked yourself
This is the first game that I play that has such tight security 😢
Should've known better
No, no it's not
it's pretty much standard procedure these days
ofc most people will never really come into contact with it
I've resetted my wow acc and never did they ask for me to know my bday or security question
Nevertheless its my fault so just pray
my bday is correct lol
I wonder how hard that would make it to steal your wow account...
then you'll have to buy wow tokens to catch back up on a new account
I once lost my security question but not my password
Glhf
To something you'll remember
You can’t change your security question unless you know it
Im actually an idiot cuz the security question was my mother's maiden name and I put her first name
I-
Thnx for y'all help :3
Mine was my elementary school but I missspelled it when I first made the account
I was able to get my 2.0 account back for remembering the security questions, but not the password. Congrats btw!
Counters back down to 3 at least
Thankfully I knew my username password and dob so getting it fixed was easy
no more clicking wars
from 6.1 all loterry base
and only 1 lottery per person
@cosmic sleet there's a full explanation of the new system on lodestone #lodestone-news-na
Forgot to say
every 9 days
Glad to see bots and auto clickers can’t just steal them from your
They should still remove the extra houses from people that have more than 1
And lock it to 1 per account
We just lack full details
Let active players choose which house to keep and take away the others
yeah, it's equal opportunity now
everyone has the chance, no more housing savage
even if you lost, you won't be sad cause you don't heavily invested to the plot
it's fair
you can still game the system via alt characters from what they have said so far (though they are mitigating it for FC housing apparently)

No I mean you can enter the lottery multiple times with multiple characters
but I may be missing something, it seems like an easy fix or oversight on their part
or they legitimately did fix it and I'm missing info
8 is number of people rerquired to kill monsters?
This is lvl 60 content and I am 88 WHM so it is easilly doable?
You can easily kill the mobs that spawn in the overworld
but if a dungeon spawns that will sync you to 60
can't solo that
So yeah would not recommend
get a light party if you want to be safe*
yuh
How does scaling work in roulettes? If a 400 ilvl and a 700 ilvl queue for a dungeon that is a low level dungeon, will they do the exact amount of dmg?
both sync to that dungeon's maximum ilvl
if sync'd to ilvl 400 dungeon, the 700 ilvl will have more stats
if both are sync'd down to ilvl 200, they will have about the same stats
Do you know where i can find a source to that?
anyone know if there are any communities/discords/linkshells for running delubrum with full groups? need to complete the relic step
!faq ilvlsync
When gear is item level synced, melds are ignored and built-in stats are instead capped at the stat cap for the synced item level. For substats, this is the higher substat on an HQ, dungeon, tome, or raid gear piece of the same type at that item level.
For example, accessories at i475 naturally have 198 as the high substat, so any accessory above i475 will have both substats capped at 198 when synced to i475. Substats are NOT scaled up, only capped.
i530 synced to i475:
Substat A: 226 -> 198 (max 198)
Substat B: 158 -> 158 (max 198)
This is better than using an unmelded i475 item, but worse than using a melded i475 item, which is why it is still generally preferred to use non-synced gear for TEA (until sufficiently higher item level gear is available to sync).
I'd wager someone who was level 90 who joins a level 20 dungeon has more stats than a level 50 that joins a level 20 dungeon
maybe 5-10 stats total
yeah just a little bot
hi i am in fl 21-30 POTD. I created a party finder and a guy joined. He said that he never joins this POTD before. So if my party is full, can i enter POTD?
if your party are all at 21-30 you will be able to
if they don't have the same save game as you, start from floor 1-50 again
it's not that slow that redo floor 1-30
just restart from floor 1-30
ok thanks
yeah i will try
So the stats are completely the same between a level 40s ilvl and a 90s ilvl when they go into a 20 dungeon
Unless it's melded?
Question but, what's the most efficient thing to buy for Crystal Sand from the Poetics store?
not even, melds are void if you sync down

first sentence
the primal items go for decently cheap on the MB
Wait, Primal Items?
Could you please give me the shopping list?
you mean ulans note?
thats in your key items
although at this point i'll just give you the full guide
!faq anima
i prefer blue scrips for crystal sand, but the levequest method for the amber vileskins are decent if you dont wanna bother with crafting
anyone know if there are any communities/discords/linkshells for running delubrum with full groups? need to complete the relic step
i think they said the echo power based on the number of participation (the lower the bigger the boost) to compensate
yeah it's 6 people minimum if you want full echo
the more you add, the less echo you will get
so just get 8 people with pures, then faceroll it
How do you target every enemy efficiently? I am trying to Aero mobs as I am walking by (I'm white mage) and I struggle sometimes to click them. If I can tab target sometimes it targets enemies out of my range or that are not aggroed by the tank. Any help?
Tab cycles through mobs in vision so you can just adjust the camera to not view the mobs further away
your target cycle is ignore depth/cone?
This is a weird option but sometimes, as a healer, I will just throw out a heal to generate enmity on all the mobs to fill out the enemy list and use that. Has some other options like keybinds and such.

you can try cone if it suits you
Any tips on getting my DoH from level 71- 80?
Do leves
Leve quests or Ishgard restoration, GC deliveries, custom deliveries, crystarium deliveries, and beast tribes are the usual ways
for squadrons, the members gear is system provided right? the only thing to change is glamour, is this right?
Yes
understood sorry, just wanted to say my appreciation
Are there any rewards for players who like recruit a certain number of players to the game? Aside from the in game ones that give like feathers and stuff
No, those are the rewards. Feathers for number of friends recruited (up to 5). And feathers plus some other stuff for a friend subbing for multiple months.
looking to get more info on Fate Hunt's for S Teir
when desynth is listed as orange text, what kind of bonus item it gives?
is it the clear/battle/trade demimateria?
how can i out this team and still keep floor 50?
do the blue quest
to unlock the 51-60 checkpoint
and you can delete that save slot
from now on, you can start from floor 51+ instead of 1+
that blue quest is from the guy who we join POTD?
It just means you have a higher desynth level than whatever you're desynthing
ok

i completed all blue quest, what should i do now?
clear the save slot, then start a new save game from floor 51+
now with "matched party"
disband your fix party or reset your progress?
I forgot the option, afaik reset your progress = delete save game
so yeah that one
stories continue till floor 100
if you want to climb 51-100, would recommend using the same method you used for 1-50, but with 51-100
use party finder
Should I just solo potd until 51 some the que taking over 30 mins?
Trying to do the same myself.
I reckon making a party finder, saying in the description you are climbing from floor 1-50 will be easier
Okay
"climbing floor 1-50, please assist" something like that
So you can only recruit a max of up to 5 ppl?
I believe you can recruit as many as you want, but you'll only get rewards for the first 5. After that anyone you recruit will still get silver feathers and stuff.
Actually it might be the first 6. The site says "each subsequent friend (up to five)." So it might be first + 5 subsequent.
What would you say are the most needed DoH jobs rn? Just levelled goldsmith but thinking about alchemist or blacksmith now
all
Fr?
yeah, pretty sure other people will also tell you to level all of them at the same time
each of them make different stuffs
God thats so much work
You need them all to do anything
when to use LB3 tank in Seat trial? It doesn't have a countdown so a bit confusing for me
Without losing alot of money
Just about when he starts slashing
yeah when he lift his sword is a good timing
It just increases the likelyhood of getting the rarer items on it's desynth list.
Well that's what higher desynth in general does, not what orange numbers mean
Yo I switched computers and my settings reset, can I recover them somehow?
New tome gear will come in patch 6.2 not 6.1 right?
yep
can you still access your old computer, like launching it and save hud, layout server side or just copy paste it from the old to new
Yeah, "Save HUD" is the trick?
Character and setting backup on character selection

hey, my SO and I want to start playing - there's a rather new macbook pro in the picture, newest intel-based one and we get a black screen when pressing Play in the client - with a seemingly random japanese error in an otherwise english client
have anyone seen similar?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
is it the newest macos?
Are you on the latest macos?
apparently ffxiv doesnt run on that
Cuz that ain't supported
And does weird shit as a result
Newest intel based one
Sounds like it
what are the biggest worlds for RP in US data centers?
Balmung/Mateus but it doesn’t matter because RP happens everywhere
yeah, I've experienced it in aether even lol, but i wanna know for making an alt,
and between balmung and mateus, which one has more? or are the 2 equal in that ?
Just pick one, literally doesn’t matter
Mac wise it was on 11.3 so a bit on the older side
12 being the newest.. hm, non-windows gaming is always a challenge 🙃
Is there a way to switch your grand company? I’m guessing you have different progress with each one?
Yes and yes
Do I lose my progress on my current one?
No
Cool
It's separate progress
The first time is free, other times is 20k Gil?
Also a week wait before swapping again
and your adventurer squadron carries over (but you'll have to rank back up to use them)
You also have to do that to transfer again so like
for the moogle event what rewards can't be got outside of events
i thought the moount speed maps were unqiues (not that they're any use)
Well the special maps are just guaranteed portals for Lv80 map dungeon
in the case what items are difficult or tedious to obtain outside of the event
maybe the music rolls and haircut? but tbh most stuff is pretty easy to get
The ex mounts if you want to skip rng farming
not really sure what to spend the tomestones i get through dailies on
suzaku still does require 2-3 braincells in PF so thats decent to farm
or if it's really worth grinding them since i don't have the blu spells i need can't obtain that where i am in the story and don't like tanks
if nothing else, mgp
I’m kinda just stacking on portal maps for whenever BLU 80 comes around
these events are mostly just there as "something to do until 6.1"
if it doesnt interest you, theres not much reason to do it
question a lot of the time when i finish a dungeon i get a message that says something along the lines of "someone in the party has not completed this dungeon something something something (9/9)" i've gotten that message quite a few times is there something i need to turn in
That's wonderous tales
Wonderous tales
The second chance points
Have you not been doing those?
that was part of the something something something i put in place of the stuff i forgot
Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.
Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.
Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!
It's easy exp, you get it in the beginning of weekly reset
i haven't been doing those
run roulette once every day to level your alt jobs, solo a few exes, you get 50% EXP
Half of a level, for free, no matter what
there are sane people who solo extremes?
You can easily solo heavensward and under
yeah, lv 50 one, takes only like 5 secs as BLU with final sting combo
Like braindead easy
i can solo any of the lvl 50 exs in like 30s or less
You know what ones you can and can’t do just from trying
you get the weapon that can be desynthesised to make a shiny weapons with your doh
also ticks your wondroustails

well i only just reached kugane and hit level 70 on my whm so i'm pretty sure i won't be able to solo an extreme hw
It shows stuff appropriate for your highest level job
Regardless of if you’ve actually unlocked it
with 2nd chance points, you cna just re-do the easy trials again and again
which i think is 71 sge
So basically 70 got it
since i did my roulettes and a bit of msq on sage yesterday to give it a test run
Maybe someone here can solve my friend's issue
I don't know what to say to him
Basically tried leveling an alt tank and those icons are apparently on all his maps
Did they do the exercises
K just ignore it, not like it’s blocking anything important
They are markers for a specific NPC. That NPC is not on all the maps but on a number of early ones.
on all his maps?
I’ve still got them they’re only over dungeons I just ignore them
Is hunts the quickest way to earn Centurio seals (not nuts) want the cat minion

Can someone help me, I'm trying to do the maelstrom levequest, "An Imp Mobile" but I don't see it anywhere. I'm trying to do the book of Skyfire I.
Sometimes you have to do other levequests get a specific one to spawn.
just make sure you choose the right levequest NPC
Thx
noice, getting ragnarok zeta :p
Lore wise warrior is my favorite job so this is the only arr relic I'm going to get
One more question,what do I do with a finished book? I heard something about buying another book would reset your progress
turn it in
Hey, im very new to the game. I played for a fews or so and i wonder... Does the Endwalker - Collector's edition for the PS5 include base game + all previous expansions?
Complete and collector’s aren’t the same
How much is a monthly subscription in crysta
so I should be finishing up my last beast tribe for ARR here in the next 10 minutes or so.. where do I go for the allied quest?
Your GC
cool, ty
Is there a way to see what folklore tomes I already have without trying to buy them again?
your inventory
I mean ones I've bought and used
you mean the items
I want to find out which tomes I've already learned so I can go buy the ones I don't have already
I don't remember if the game prevents you from buying stuff you already have
You can check your gathering log
But also it won't let you buy them if you already learned them
They do prevent it, but I don't want to buy tome tokens only to not be able to use them
I mean... gathering scrips are easy enough to get I guess lol
Hi, what are the highest apm melee dps jobs? :) I'm lv55 and finding dragoon a bit too slow for my taste (even though I know you get more ogcds later, I think I like the sound of classes that weave or double weave all the time without breaks)
Nin probably
Anything is slow in that level
definitely NIN for sure
though you're not going to be weaving constantly
with any job

How do you unlock splendors in Old Sharlayan?
It’s not in sharlyan
OH! I know where it is
!faq scripunlock
Unlocking scrips (Foundation x10, y10.)
Unlocking Idyllshire's House of Splendors (Mor Dhona 22, y6)
Unlocking Rhalgr's Reach House of Splendors (Rhalgr's Reach x10, y12)
Unlocking Eulmore's House of Splendors (Eulmore at x11, y10, on the top floor)
Unlocking Radz-at-Han's House of Splendors (Radz-at-Han x11, y9)
Thank you both
Thanks! How does nin compare to reaper or monk? Those are the 3 classes I'm considering changing to, just looking for a high apm class I suppose
Reaper probably interests me the most
Not sure how up to date this is, but here's a list #questions-and-help message
Thanks! What's cpm?
casts per minute
So apm
yes
Nah, everything's pretty active overall
Though Monk and Ninja revolve quite a bit around their 1 minute burst windows. Some other jobs spread those actions out a little more.
just some have a lot more than others
Reaper is mostly gcds so it makes sense
Right
Also don’t get it confused even if a job is low on the list they all feel plenty busy
^^
Reminder this is endgame numbers
You have ~20 seconds of frantic and ~40 seconds of mostly GCDs waiting to line it up again. Bard for example is more proc-based and your times of high activity is a little less predictable (though influenced by song) which makes it feel more active to me then jobs with those longer lulls.
Hmmm interesting
more weaves
I like to think of the jobs more with what the design wants you to be focusing/thinking about rather than apm. Lining up bursts/reacting to procs/lining up buffs and dots/managing mobility.
Reaper is about phases and resources but low on oGCDs (not an expert). Doesn't make it boring, you are just doing different things with your brain during the fight.
It's also worth considering how much your kit will change as you level. Given that we are now five expansions in and that pretty much all class kits have been designed essentially for the 80-90 range, you're not going to feel like the actual class you're playing until late Heavensward/early Stormblood.
With the exception of Warrior, every single class I've leveled has felt absolutely bizarre until around that point.
Yes, and some don't feel complete until 80+ imho. Some jobs actually have several stages that feel very different. Black Mage is well known for that.
We even have an entire faq dedicated just to explain how to play BLM as you level because it changes so often.
and is so funky in the intermediate stages
I think it makes it very fun for doing roulettes 🙂 but I am a little crazy.
If you try to send a tell to someone and it shows they are offline, is it possible they blocked you?
From my Google-fu, it seems if you are blacklisted there is no response. As far as I can tell, it just looks like the message was sent but the recipient doesn't see it. If that is true, the person may really be offline or maybe in busy status?
is the 3cup phase in "the slice is right" pure rng?
there's an extremely small tell iirc
no it's just rng
I don't have the screenshot series with someone's research anymore
no, there's a tell
atleast according to wiki
a guy did research
I'm trying to find the Reddit post with it
Apparently the final spin right before you pick the options doesn’t actually affect positions
So if you keep track up to that point
go to the spot right before the super shuffle
super shuffle is just for show
yea I think that's it
the shuffle sequence is always the same though, coins go 4x clockwise, then 4x ccw, etc and end up in their original location, but that doesnt seem to match where stuff actually spawns in the end
I’m fairly sure that’s wrong
can you form a party and share main quest with the party or is it strictly solo?
i just watched 3 different yt videos in slow-motion and they all had the exact same sequence
i think its pure rng
msq is solo, excluding dungeons and trials.
