Is War still considered easiest tank for a beginner?
Depends on what you mean by easy. The damage rotation at low levels is easy. I think the cone AOE is not as easy as the circle AOE on Paladin.
people overplay the cone aoe tbh
it's not like it's super hard to use or get used to
I like the cone AOE after getting used to it. It is definitely more difficult to pick up all the adds in a single GCD for a new tank.
which is not something that matters for a beginner tank
I think that is more important than the difference in the damage rotation on single target between paladin and warrior. It is going to be different for each person. Play what is fun and don't worry about what different people consider easy or hard.
Ok
is the "combo" thing in TT only applicable in plus rulings
only to plus and same rules
Is BLM the only magic caster with DoTs now?
The zones are still doable as people do it for levelling
Plus with the actions you can easily solo
ok what abt the actual questline and content
Doing castrum, delubrum and dalridia is rough but otherwise fine
You'll want to dig for pfs or discards for them
ok i heard i gotta do sumn called delubrum reginae for the gabranth armor lol
Yes
Question, to buy a house as a FC, do we need the money to be in one player or in the FC chest?
the gil needs to be on the player buying the plot
on the person buying the plot
What are the best things for a new player to spend those moogle event tokens?
the earring
don't buy any of the mounts except for the Drake and the Laurel Goobbue, the rest can be farmed within a few minutes
Earring
Kamuy Fife
Bird horns
Beast tribe mounts
Other shits
the dog mount requires you to do stormblood extremes so might as well get that
Yeah idk beast tribes were neat with their stories
If you have any intention of doing them, I'd skip those 2 mounts from the event altogether
Thanks for the tips! I was out of town this past week and didn't get to play much so I'll see what I can get
So I’m trying to get the sky builders frypan. (I haven’t started on any of the sky builder stuff yet) would I need to have all my gatherers to 80+ including fisher
No
Oh thank god because that’s the only gatherer I have that’s not 80 or above
Because that item is not suited to your current class or job. =)
got the coffer anyway
You pressed Need probably, which would give you that error.
ye
So you can unlock dyeable AF4 by doing unsynced Memoria now? How many people does that take at lvl 90?
4 or 5 is enough iirc?
there aren't a lot of mechanics that require a full party, but it may be good to bring one anyways just to make it quicker
ty
i heard that as of 6.0, but not sure if you still need 8 to skip given raid gear and radiant
Yeah I only semi-recently did it with baseline 90 gear
So probably much faster if people got radiant
Question, how long will the new plots of land be up to enter into the lottery?

Think they said it’s a 9-day cycle? Five days to enter, four days to claim.
Yep
Hello everyone! Are free transfers available? If so, can ppl transfer to servers like Mateus or Balmung or is this for Oceania Data Servers?
Only free transfers are to Materia servers currently
Free transfers are given when going from a Congested Server to Preferred server, or any server to a New server.
Oh ok. Thank you for letting me know! : )
no
Seems fine to me 
hi
havent been able to get a message in for the last ~10 mins lol
I fail to understand potd party system all the time.
I'm at 61 matched solo party.
Friend 1 is at 71, 2 player matched party.
Friend 2 deleted their save file...
Is player 1 now boned into starting fresh at floor 50 with the two of us others?
this is written confusing to me. I think what you're asking is if you all need to delete your save files so that you can all party up together?
Yeah I don't know how better to word it haha.
If Player 1 still has their save file at 61, they can still play with Player 2 on floor 61 if the other person gets back to that floor before you party together again.
If I get to floor 71 on a matched solo save. Can I queue with someone else who has the same save? What if their save is now impossible bc the other person with them deleted their save?
what level of eureka armor do I have to get to make the level 70 gear dyable?
nvm
its anemos
yep
Fixed saves need everyone to have that exact file for it to work
Matched just needs people on the same floor
Is there a channel in this server for dungeon help
Well they went in together and got to 71. One of them deleted their save file.
I'm not part of the save file.
So we need to just all 3 join same party and start from 50 again?
Just the Region channels, really.
questions on dungeon? or looking for people?
Looking for people
Most people just use duty finder or party finder
im only lvl 15 and nobodys doing this dungeon, i cant progress
use duty finder and wait.
^
Again, depends on if it’s a fixed save or not.
patience is a virtue when it comes to queues
if you are DPS, could take like ~10 minutes. If you are tank/healer, shouldnt be more than a few minutes tops.
If it’s a matched party, you just need to progress your file on the same floor as theirs
If it’s fixed, everyone needs a new file
I think they went matched until 71. It was a party of two and that is where they stopped, but one of the two deleted their save already.
then they need to do floors 51-70 again.
If they partied up and went to floor 61, could I join them after with my save file "solo, matched" at 61+?
Yes
What are some good ways to spend Gil if you cap out during the free trial?
I wish I could just talk them into doing 51-100. So we can get them through it... bc they keep resetting their party and stuff.
leveling roulettes help fill and mentor roulette will fill around 20 mins to help you out. if you're DPS, get used to the wait of duty finder queue.
also try around prime time, usually after 5pm local
Yeah, it isn’t nobody is doing the dungeon
It’s usually because you are a DPS
And you need to share this resource called “tanks” and “healers” with all the other DPS people
Dungeons require a party of 4. 2 DPS, 1 Tank, 1 healer. Just gotta wait
What you’re looking at is probably displaying who you’re queuing with, so it’d show more people if you were in a party
Doesn’t mean you aren’t getting matched in the background
183 votes and 31 comments so far on Reddit
90% of buttons either kill others faster or make it so you die slower
the other 10% I don't know because I'm an NA player.
I have no idea what to do, I cant abandon it or initiate this levequest
"To better facilitate the login process, the display of character information has been simplified"
What does this mean?
Ohhhh I see it, ty!
which patchnotes is that from?
It wasn't
It was displayed in place of my character when I opened the game
It let me login as normal though
ah, then the login server is experiencing high activity
so it doesn't display your character
Ohhh ok
instead making sure people can log in faster
Makes sense lol
thanks i got queued instantly after a certain time, didnt know thats how it worked

recently saw some characters with different animals head. I think I saw a lion, an elephant, a pig, and a fat chocobo? where do I get these?
source differs depending on the outfit
though there is no lion set afaik, unless you mean the lionliege set I guess
Chocobo head is an achievement reward if I remember correctly. Pig head is from Gold Saucer. Frog and elephant are from special fates in Shadowbringers and Endwalker respectively. Most of the others were seasonal rewards if I recall. Which should be on the cash shop by now.
Choco head is achievement vendor
There is a lion head but it’s much smaller than the others because it’s part of an actual armor set. 52 I believe?
The suit itself is from an actual achievement
I just realized irregular tombstone trade items don’t have the armors for tanks!? Is this intentional??
!iglam wyvernskin mane of fending
It's PvP gear
They pick sets and throw them in there
It won't always be stuff for your class
But it's always something already existing (except the 100 tome item)
It’s the Late Allagan set right now, yes? The irregular tomestone vendors sell the designs that won previous design contest submissions.
This set being melee dps
You can still buy the tank version with pvp currency yeah
What do they called? So i can lookup what they look like.
!iglam late allagan armour of fending
It's a cool hi-tech coat
Cool
Dyes nicely
🤔 can u dye this?
👍
I dont have any clue how to do pvp but i will try
#archived-player-vs-player I think has resources pinned
Thx
Like DPS burst guides and some basic pointers
skills like Standard Finish that say "deal full damage to first enemy..." - does First Enemy = the one you have targetted? Or is it random which is determined to be first?
It's based on distance
For targeted things like flare that's when it determines based on that afaik
how do I keep a track of the first requirement for battle mentor?
There's an achievement for it
oh cool, what's it called?
It's under battle iirc
thanks!
you'll probably have the 1000 dungeons long before you have 1500 commends
any matchmade content
ahhhh ok
so like I can't just do a low level trial by myself without a level cap?
you can, the achievement doesn't care if its sync'd or unsync
but like, does it count as matchmade if I do it alone?
yes
again, achievement doesn't care if you're doing it with unrestricted party on or just queueing normally
oh.
well if it's like that I might as well try to do it with matchmade stuff when I'm trying to get the others
the getting commendations part seems like the more time consuming one
Cause it is
well time to win people over with my endearing personality
thanks for the info!
wait MSQ doesn't count right?
I'm at 444 commendations after about 4 months
oh wow
since I started at EW-pre-launch
good thing an mmo is a journey and not a destination
Wait isn’t dungeon master the name of a challenge log challenge
Why would they reuse a name
yeah I found that when I was looking that up

it's weird but doesn't look like they addressed it
because it doesn't really matter what they call it
and also that it'll help you connect the two
doing challenge log = doing achievement
heyy guys
whats the hairstyle called used in this glam?
or is it a mod?
its called Modern Legend
can buy it skybuilder's scrips, get it from fete presents or buy from the marketboard
thank you
will ||potd or hoh's|| exp effect the rest exp?
don't have to spoiler those, and no, I don't think so?
since I think those aren't considered combat exp, which is what rested affects

did they ever clarify what the method of purchasing land at 6.1 will actually be?
Whoa, I just a squadron recruit wearing the warrior if light armor. Cool, is that one of the unique outfits that I've heard about?
just a few days ago
What’s their name?
i am referring to this, in the method in one sentence they say its either first come first serve, and then the sentence below that it says all will be lottery
All of the Empyrean plots will be lottery
what im trying to say is in the sentence above they say its both, but then the sentence below says its ONLY lottery
But future wards might be first come first serve
thats what i assumed i guess
its still a bit vague to me but thats the best conclusion i can take from it
it wont really make a difference for me, still curious though
Does the dead ends, smileton or the stigma dreamscape have weapon drops?
If you use the hide headgear option in the character screen, does it only hide it from your perspective, or other players as well? I always assumed it was from everyones perspective, but then I saw that emporers new hat or whatever existed which seems to server 0 utility if you can do it for free so it got me wondering. I guess teh difference is like, saving glams some can have it enabled and some not, vs the checkbox for hiding doesnt get saved per outfit
you have to resave it
its unique per loadout im pretty sure
emperors new hat is just so that it hides the actual thing
which in term is kinda useless, since theres already an option to hide the hat
some hats are just.... bad
most headgear I use shows off my face
like its a flower, or glasses, or an actually nice hat
!iglam YoRHa Type-51 Cap of Maiming
what is the top used on the store page for dark purple dye
no
orison robe, lv60 white mage job specific gear
Is GNB as hard as people claiming it to be? All that OCD weaving while squeezing tanking utilities sounds daunting. And you gotta do the mechanics and move the boss too. GNB is pretty stylish and looks cool. But I also like Fel cleave and unga bunga. Can’t decide. 😭
thanks much
There is a learning curve to the rotation with the addition of the third cartridge and double down but otherwise it's just mash stuff off cd
It's not that hard
Some people love making their job sound harder than they actually are
Got it
Only accessories, that's their purpose
You already got a 560 weapon for free
I beeennn in there for about 15 mins
what role
Well dps. But not even another bean has shown up
and is it normal or savage
More importantly what time is it over there
kind of have to keep in mind time zones when you're not playing in a region thats same as yours
I havent even done the dang alliance raids and raid for storm finished yet. I still need to do lighthouse, and fight kefka
i dont wanna do them unsnyced either lol
should've done those before EW
It’s like a 12 hour time difference, just be in an NA server
18 hour difference from West Coast US to Melbourne, Australia
Welllll my bf keeps getting distracted when i wanna get them done ;w;
oce queues are just really bad when it isn't dungeons or HW side content
Yeah it's 10:57 right now AEDT 😹 . Use PF or wait at your own risk
But peak time in NA
Yeah CET
Is there a way to level up miner fast
Diadem
Leves
Instead of mining the highest lvl ore there is
Huh
Leves, diadem, daily company turn ins

is this a good setup for drg skills, or should i put fang and claw & wheeling thrust next to each other
If you can hit them easily without fucking it up its fine
Fang and claw followed by full thrust while wheeling thrust is chaos thrust, so i put those next to it other
yeah I reckon 1-5 or 1-6 is decent
not too far to reach
oh nvm, didn't see the 7-f1 ._.
The visual orientation doesn't really matter, as long as it makes sense to you. The keybinds I'd .... maybe fiddle with, depending on whether or not you're using an MMO mouse and have them easily under your thumb, or if you're using the number line
because not only is 7 really far away from standard WASD (which, it's also possible you might not be using that position), but bouncing between 4/7/1 or 7/4/1 is going to be a bit odd-feeling.
I mean, I can hit it without too much in the way of contortionist shenanigans, but I've got long fingers. But even then, as a general comfort rule I tend not to place anything I use frequently past 4 on the line.
The more frequent you use a skill, the easier to press you should make it
And as said, avoid breaking your flow
I use 1234QERF for dragoon combo
I'm on controller
So uh. This is kinda important. I scheduled a wedding a while ago in advance, but on the day and time the wedding needs to be done, I need to go sign paperwork for a new apartment. What do I do if I can't reschedule my own wedding? What happens?
My Dragoon combo is set up in such a way that I always go full circles around the face buttons
Gimme a sec I'll show my hotbar.
You’ll have to schedule again
Would it need to do the entire quest over again?
Nope
Sorry. Internet was being slow.

Mine is
Right side: true, vorpal, full, fang
Left side: true, disembowl, chaos, wheeling
When I do the combos, I just go clockwise
Then jump to the other side, do Wheeling or fang, and continue the clockwise motion
I could do that but I like my ranged throw to be l2 triangle.
I like it to be easy to hit for GCD down time like avoiding AOEs.
how does delebrum reginae work? i queued for it and it was just me and someone else
Made SAMs Enpi worth using.
After 10mins it auto puts everyone who's ques for it inside
Regardless of how filled it was
it was liek a ~2 min queue
You get a large echo buff based on number of people, just like castrum
huh. so i prob got bad timing to queue for it or smth?
The other people probably hit the 10min que limit and dragged you in cause you were also qued for oy
get a pure essence, make a PF of 8 people with no role rules, then get other 7 people with pures (Except healer)
then go in Delubrum, wait 10 mins
pure essence?
essence that cost 1 cluster each, can be bought from Bozjan/Zadnor
!action Pure essence of the duelist
Increases defense by 60%, damage dealt by 60%, and maximum HP by 81%.
Effect ends upon reuse.
Cannot be used with other Essence, Deep Essence, or Pure Essence actions.
It is said that Pure Essences may grant unexpected effects...
※This action can only be used in Delubrum Reginae.
make sure you use pure essence for every Delubrum run
unless if you are just unlocking Delubrum the first time, you could use normal dps essence then
cause it requires a certain rank(?) to use?
like this?
noooo
That's a regular essense
im assuming thats not deep essence either
Like these
no Deep Essence is expensive and weaker than Pure
but They can be used outside Delubrum
Cant
wait, Deep also can't be used outside Delubrum? ._.
Pure can't, deep can
ah yeah
is there any way to queue for Alliance Raids and not get the CT raid series?
Yeah if i get lab of ancients one more time ill scream
Alliance Roulette looks at the players' item level, so the reason CT seems more common is that people will remove all their gear before queueing to force CT to be the raid selected.
People also need CT to unlock their MSQ
And no, there's nothing you can do about people cheesing their item level.
You just queue and hope you get people who aren't doing that.
what fragments do I get for those
like half of them are white
Cause they're for separate roles
Indomitable is tank, duelist is melee, fiendhunter is ranged, elder for caster and divine for healer
im so confused
For the PvP you level up the class you entered with? Even if you change the class inside the pvp and play other class?
Yes xp goes to the job you enter with
Thx
what
What is considered easiest pvp job that totally lost noob can contribute?
The one you’re good at, just practice in the wolf den for a bit
melee is trickier cause it's 72 man fight (frontline)
Healer isn't the easiest
Red mage is my go to because all I do is build gauge, dump gauge, try not to die
Ranged physical then
Where do I find the option to scale up the chatbox text?
do the forgotten fragments of (x) give only one of the things
so like an action/pure essence?
What they give is stated I'm the description
You only get 1 whenever appraising any fragment
well I spent all my clusters and only got the action, no essence
ayo
how do i get bozja lost item things on a hotbar
on controller
boutta do the castrum thing
whats that
where are those
. Just told you
when i press square theres no option to assign things
Cause you need to put them in your holster
From the cache
The npcs did try to teach you this at the first few quests
sad the game doesn't give you a quick reminder if you forgot to equip your class stone before a mission
Penalizes you anyway
It should’ve been saved to your gear set to begin with, that’s your fault
i know but i equipped my stuff as usual and it did not
Use gear sets
via gear set
Then you didn’t save the stone
You.didnt save the gear set then with the job stone
it could be i save the gearset without the stone on it
ohh well
bypassing the penality is simpler than waiting anyway
You can’t bypass it
no no
No
i did not have my stone
They left the que
and joined a duty sadly
so i got punished for leaving the duty as i was not prepared for it
yes it was my fault
owh, yeah just say sorry to your team that you forgot your job stone
It's not that often, but I got queued into a returner who just forgot how things works
and then they realised after I told about it at the end of the dungeon
yeah
most of my luck is getting qued with a bad healer for the team
kinda hard to resist tho ngl
or even 1, than dying
just go in and murder all things 1 mob isent enough gotta kill them all
sorry for the late response hard to mixx discord and game duty
I just got kicked form my frontline bc of a NTT screw up that has been causing me major lag these last 3 days... I'm sure I'm not the only one having this issue.

What's the easiest healer to pick up? Maybe except white mage, doesn't seem too interesting. I just want to level any of them to 80~, because I like healer glams...
well sage starts at 70, Ast at 30 and SCH "starts at 30"
Oh, true!
Do Hunt Bills expire?
Well, that's settled then. Thanks for reminding me that...
I had some from a while ago that I forgot to do, should I get new ones?
they're still in your key items, they don't disappear
You can finish them and pick new ones right after iirc
ah noice, ty ty
Are ff14 collectors editions worth it?
If you want the stuff, that's your decision
If I bought the package for WHM can I still get the unicorn mount?
the quest isn't related to your job questline
Cause the quest is conjurer specific
I did take it off. I don’t see it
It's yellow
in the conjurer guild
I’m in the guild. I don’t see it
!quest unicorn power
I’m there. I’m looking at the npc who gives it and don’t see the marker
did you actually talk to her
Yes
check the journal to see if the quest is marked as completed
Have you done the prerequisite quest.
they said they bought a skip, so it has to be complete
It’s in my journal
then you've done it
have you checked your mounts?
do you have the item in inventory or a retainer?
Woooow. It’s already in my mounts!
I checked before but the green dot didn’t appear so I thought it wasn’t there
i guess they just give it to you with a whm boost
I guess so
makes sense i guess

anyone got any miner guide that they found helpful?
What is the weapon you get in an collectors edition?
It says on mogstation
It it a good weapon or a skin? It just says it’s a weapon
!item Chicken Knife
They’re just glam
So they are just to show off
Yes
K thx
if I have my little private room inside my fc house
and I leave
what happens to that room
damn, can I keep all the stuff in it ?
or is all that gone too
I mean yeah pick it all up?
okay, so not a huge huge loss
For anyone who has housing decoration experience in ffxiv, which floor is easier to close off in a medium, the upstairs or downstairs? If I wanted to use it as a purely 2-floor house to up the amount of items used on each floor.
I am having really bad scaling issues for some reason. I didn't change any of the settings but when I logged in everything was tiny. I can increase UI icons etc but menus, and everything else is really small and I got a huge fps drop(from 33ish to 24ish now). Tried messing with the resolution but nthn, don't know what to do now
probably onedrive rolling back to your previous setting again
turn off one drive for your my games document
or rather, just uninstall it
in the 60s on BLM, do u bother transposing between pulls to maintain an orb?
if your mana pool is not max then maybe transpose to UI, but honestly we start with B3/F3 which gives 3 stacks already, and B2/F2 as well
still, having something to press while running never hurt
Okay I uninstalled one drive but its still the same
I play in windowed mode and it always scaled properly but its messed up since today
The scaling and resolution of my laptop is the recommended at 125% and 1920x1080 but ff14 seems to be at a 100% scaling

what times do DR in bozja usually have people in them
I literally can't get a pure essence
used all my clusters on the trader and only got the actions
You can buy more fragments on the marketboard
should be cheap afaik, There's a quite huge community of Bozjan enthusiast in Crystal
last time I was there, CLL/DR/Dalriada was almost ran daily
clusters are also almost free, you run Bozjan/Zadnor, you gather all the magiteks around the Skirmishes and burst them all down
each skirmishes probably will give 1-3 clusters
What melds boost cp?
!unmute 250481889406615552
C u n n i n g
Cunning boosts CP
stuff I found is like ~7k
i bought about 25 and got all lost flares, no essence
Ty!!
Is there any functional difference between Classical gear and the Limbo gear? They are both item level 580
Crafted gear, as in the Classical gear, can have five materia jammed into them even though it doesn't look like it. Limbo gear is hard capped with however many slots they start with.
So for the sake of my tank classes, I'm better off crafting Classical 580 gear than raiding for the chance of the tokens needed for Limbo gear.
It'll be faster in the end if you can afford it, yes.
I capped all my DoH/DoL first, so I'll just gather the stuff. Gives me something less stressful to do anyway. Thanks!
Except in 6.1, Classical gear can be upgraded to ilvl 590
It was already settled, but now I have more of a reason lol
can i get triple triad cards doing stuff solo
Yes
dueling npc is definitely solo
im trying to get the card from ultima weapon and after 20 kilsl nothing so far so i just wondered
rng
So im learnign to try and heal, and i gotten whm to 60, which i enjoy. But i wanna give astro a try.
Is it hard for my knowledge?
AST is essentially the same as WHM but you also play yu-gi-oh in your downtime
Ok i was told that
i keep thinking the card mechinc is hard
and hear that you need to play them right
AST has copies of basically every WHM spell
i didnt know if that got switched
It's easier than it sounds but it takes some learning.
i was just told color goes to who
the main theme of AST is predicting future damage, most cooldowns they have are delayed time
sorry was in an instance, and replied carelessly ._.
didn't even know I got muted
All good
The cards aren't as hard as they might seem. You have two sets of three, and the outline of each set is the same color; blue outlines go to melee and purple outlines go to ranged.
then Lord and Lady are a separate draw, and are damage/healing respectively
@leaden ginkgo just make sure to forget about Benefic 1 as soon as you get Benefic 2. it's not even worth it for level 50 sync content like on WHM (since on WHM it at least helps you save mana, and AST don't need to save mana)
Its not like, this card goes to this class anymore?
nope
the only thing you need to remember is which class is ranged and which one is melee
what about green
also it's okay to ignore cards if you're panicking
yeah I have no idea.. I never need to buy these
green? green icons are healers if that's what you mean
what class are you playing? If you are on a healer, you could settle down with aetherweaver/profane
:/ i'll wait until tmrw to try to get into DR
and they are normal essence, but better than the healer's pure
i don't really have a main job to play in bozja
i have everything exc 3 jobs at 90, i just kinda do whatever
cards with purple frames go to ranged, cards with blue frames go to melee.
though I found RDM to prob be the best option bc of fast raising and nice versatility
most dont use main job in bozja, they use "whatever class isnt max level in bozja" because its the best EXP per hour in the game after roulettes.
the last 3 I don't have maxed aren't usable in DR then
75 rpr, 23 thaumature and 10 conjurer
what is DR?
Delubrum Reginae
Oh, I thought it was only 71 for Delubrum
that's Bozjan/Zadnor
Delubrum Reginae is Latin for "Queen's Sanctum".
You need to run DR still because you havent gotten to zadnor?
which is a funny thing since i think sanctum is also a latin word
if so, then just do whatever gets you to zadnor
i need to run DR as part of some quest
idk the context of anything I skipped all the cutscenes
then after that is zadnor? and the savage version at some point
Savage DR is optional but yes Zadnor is right after DR.
The individual card colors don't matter, it's only a set of three preferred for melee and a set of three preferred for ranged.
Note the card backgrounds when you draw them against your UI.

Although the Arrow is a light blue card, note that when it's drawn its background appears blue (or teal, I guess? blue is simpler).
The Spire is a yellow card, but its background when drawn is purple
The shapes are different too
Blue for melee, purple for ranged
The Balance is a reddish-orange card, but again, blue background.
Ranged is a skewered orb
Why is "The Arrow" for melee and not ranged. That seems weird to me 
Because
To me, because the other three are weird.
idk it makes sense in my head without thinking about it
Bole/Ewer/Spire
Originally, these cards have very different buffs
Balance buffs attack, bole buff defense
buffed
But the only thing people did was "baww muh parse" and they hunted for damage up
so the devs changed it to damage up
Spear went from faster ability cooldown (only when that ability is used when you have a Spear buff. If an ability is already on cooldown while you received Spear, nothing happens to that ability) to crit up
Shadowbringers changes how Astrologian cards work
"Time to do a little trolling" (gives monk Arrow)
I really want to see this now
!action divination
This was introduced in Shadowbringers to replace AOE balance buff (AOE effect is acquired by sacrificing Ewer or spire card)
In Shadowbringers, you actually need to acquire 3 different astrology sign to get the highest divination buff
In Endwalker, divination no longer ties to card RNG anymore
(if you get anything out of this, it should be RNG is messy, and ffxiv seems to be moving away from too much RNG)
hello, im trying to understand how to obtain rank 3 buffs for a free company but i found what i felt was an outdated guide. is it possible to do so only with an fc house? there was an aetherial wheel being sold at an apartment merchant, does that not count?
You need an FC house to get them since the wheels have to be made in a FC workshop.
But yeah the wheel charging stations can be bought at an apartment vendor. You don’t need to own an apartment to buy from them. But they sell only the level 1 stand if I remember correctly. You need a grade 3 stand to charge grade 3 wheels.
Grade 3 stand also needs to be made in the workshop if I’m remembering this right.
Anyone know if lv80 idealized chest coffers are ever gonna have stuff for the reaper class? Their default versions you get exist, so i was sad to see the coffer not workT_T
no
riip
because idealized is for the lvl 80 af sets
and reaper is never going to have that, even though they have an 80 set from grenoldt
Yeah those are just dyable versions of the 80 job gear
yeah i know, i wanted to dye it for fun LOL
oh well makes sense doe, rip
least it was actually p fun getting the coffer
is the discal tomestone only used to get a radiant weapon?
yes
ahhh big sad
finally won a roll on a piece of loot and it's for something i already had gotten from p4n
thanks for your help, that explains everything
You mean the pieces to get the limbo sets?
nah the discal tomestone from p2s
Wait, P2S gives that?
Yeah lol
yes
…
mhm... thought I could use it for something other than a radiant weapon
there's 2 ways of gettign radiant weapons
7 weeks of normal or p2s
Someone should’ve told me that
because I already have the weapon from 7 weeks or normal
This was my 6th week
Is it rude to roll greed for gear in dungeon finder dungeons?
no
can greed roll higher than need or does it always go to need?
Need first
need always trumps greed
no matter what
Okay good to know, I always do greed if I can turn it in for seals but then I was like dang I hope I'm not getting it instead of people who actually want to use it
thanks
You still have to clear p2s, AND win the weekly loot roll 👀
or just clear p2s for 4 weeks

is there good ffxiv mahjong tutorial, i tried duty finder i sat down like a clown
ayo so i queued up for this delubrum reginae thing right
there's no estimated queue time here lol
what did i even sign up for
do ppl still run this
You picked a terrible time
It’s like midnight-early morning in NA
i mean i could just go to bed its nbd lol
does this content get ppl queueing for it tho
ty
It's not done as much as it used to be, no.
the 2nd boss of Dead-End. Sometimes, during its second black AoE circles where I normally stand in safe spot and move according the AoE spawn, I got myself into situations where I have no where to stand cuz the black AoE fill all blank. It doesn't happen too often, but when it happens, I need a rez. What am I suppoed to do here?
The aoe circles will resolve in order, so you will need to shift between safe zones twice.
They will also occur in a sequence either in from the boss going out, or out coming in.
There is always a safe place to stand.
Does anyone know any npc in La noscea and thanlan who sells lumbers and ores?
you can check housing npcs
Which ones?
material supplier
You can also get miner and botanist
Where are they
What ones in particular
I remember one standing near the gate inside the housing area in Thanalan.
Because a good amount isn’t purchasable period
Aight, thanks
I'm going to change my race to miqote, what's the number of that annoying miqote voice that keeps meowing whenever it attacks
2
you're probably thinking of 5
5 is the one that gets memed
I only hear it on dungeons sometimes so I'm not really sure. I'll research both 2 and 5
MIQO'TE VOICE #5 SUPREMACY!! WAOH!
Check out these links below if you wanna catch me!

oooh exactly this one. thanks
the little ladies day event, it ends a minute before 8:00 a.m. on the west coast correct, like Seattle time? forgot to do it and tryin to find out if I have time before work but struggling to brain
Live letter in?
Can u 5 man unsynced "The Dying Gasp" normal?
It takes like 15 minutes with reading everything and like 5 without if you just want the crown.
oh I know it's really fast, but I have to go to bed for work right now, and I need to know if I have time before I go, as in when the cutoff is
I know 80 content is in that weird zone where its possibly undermannable
Probably but like, but it’d be easier to just queue for the fight
PDT
Yeah
yes but because of daylight savings time, I kind of can't remember if I'm in pdt lol
I'm real tired
Is there specific mechanics that makes undermanned it hard?
Just type 'pdt time' in google!
I was trying to avoid that by asking here but okay fine whatever
it would have been quicker to type if you knew the answer then for me to Google it so it was worth a shot
What is daylight savings?
so West Coast time, like I initially said, that's PDT right now, which means yes that's the time zone I was referring to, why didn't anybody just say that why did it become a whole situation where I got told to Google it lol
daylight savings time is a stupid thing the United States is trying to get rid of
human perversity that touched the time and space
anyway thanks for the confirmation I guess, I'm just trying to get into bed really quick so I actually can be awake enough to log in and do it before work
Didnt know we have sort of aether tech in real life
For the normal mode? Not at all
so u think 5 is ok?
Yes
Ty! 
You think FF14 will rise in popularity again? Feel like it has really not kept a lot of new people from endwalker.. which is sad
That’s just wrong
guys should i spend gil for armor or weapon? Or just level up gathering to make them?
If I am wrong I am wrong. definetly an uptrend.. but not as much as I was hoping
Neither. the msq, dungeons etc will give you gear
we're like a few weeks away from a new patch
things always wind down a bit between patches
devs don't expect people to play 24/7, 365 days a year
keep in mind a bunch of big games just came out these past 2 months, the majority of people that are gone will be back by 6.1 . FFXIV keeps players meal piece, not by an exhausting marathon or constant uptime
I know, but it dropped very quickly for new players, so I guess I would expect them to want to watch the story.. maybe I am wrong. Just seemed like a massive short drop off
source?
not really
it dropped off pretty much when it usually does
in terms of overall population
People did content, ran out of it, went along with their lives
I don't mean to be crucified.. its still my game...
Nobody is doing that to you?
just stating a fact, that near the end of a patch, things start getting quiet
while people are waiting for the next patch
doesn't help that a highly anticipated released was released (elden ring) that also pulled plenty of people away

Surprise you to find that people can't play every game all at the same time lol
Not everyone have the same habit
Some can stick with a game as their main, and play others on the side (or not at all)
I won't be surprised if some folks actually play ffxiv for 2 months to do just the story every 2 years
Yoshida actually encourages people to play in cycles instead of constantly.
while levelling gathering, what stat should i prioritise when given a choice?
Whichever one is the higher stat gain
Can blu do treasure dungeons?
cant solo content above its cap tho right
70 solo is doable, i wouldnt recommend it tho
and yes anything above will slaughter u
ah alr
Do the food exp stack?
no
a food buff will add to other types of buffs
but a second food will overwrite the first food
Ahhhh okay, Ty
All previous expack content can now be unsynced, right? (as in, can load into the fight solo, not necessarily beat it)
ye
well save TEA
Except for ultimates and places like Bozja
and no EW content can be unsynced yet, right?
Well, leveling dungeons sync your level
I mean, you can enter a leveling dungeon as an unrestricted party, sure.
You can't unsync current expac dungeons
thank you
I wouldn't know why you would want to, so it had never occurred to me to try
Tiny troll, tiny troll
People probably want to unsync farm the last 2 dungeons since their minions drops are untradeable
One day, I’ll get off my ass and farm it
One day
He's needed to spawn an s rank
Hello!
Mini question.
If a glam item is listed as 15k, would it be better to craft it instead?
15k is not a lot of money
but if you are able to craft it easily then y'know.
It's pretty whatever either way
Could also server-hop to see if it's cheaper somewhere else if that price isn't appealing.
Running mentor roulette daily gives me 12k
Then it's probably waaaaaaay cheaper on mb
That’s a rip off then
Or a piss easy craft
what item?
On mb its 69k 😦
Nice

Go check it out
if it's gone then I would just buy it from the vendor

Nada.
Still only 1 entry, the 69k one
at level cap you'll get that several times over per day just from passive income.
On zodiark?

yes
Given that the next highest listing is 70.5 and they said it's currently 69, I'd hazard the item has since sold.
then buy from vendor.

Is there a way to earn grand company seals fast? I have been unable to do and submissions for seals, I have done my daily for seals and hunting log but I cannot progress to the next rank. I'm storm private first class
skybuilder materials are only used for a single crafted item each? so there's no question of using them for the 'wrong' one and i should just go ahead and grind them out?
leveling roulette's daily bonus gives a good chunk of GC seals if you can be the role in need
besides that, all you really got is doing FATEs
I can only do it once a day. Trying to get second storm luitenent. I guess fates is the only way. Thank you!! Do you know of recommended places for fates?
if you level up crafters and gatherers, you can do their GC turn-ins for seals too
highest level ones you find easy to do, up to level 60
Understood, so after 60 we don't earn seal's and instead get gems ahhhh
ye, you can gather mats from every node and turn those into scrips, then sell them for profit if you dont need it
some skybuilder stuff are used in multiple skybuilder crafts, but always at the same level
I am unable to trade in any mats in the grand company. Are you saying I must be in a DoL or DoH to submit mats?
it's the provision and supply categories of dailies
but yes, you must have them unlocked to do them
Ahhhhh
can also see it from the timers menu
the items requested are based on the level of the crafter, so it's always something that you'll be able to do
Ah now it makes sense why it says"no more delivery today"
Wth? I didn’t know we can see the list from there …
hi all, whats the fastest way to gain aetheric density for anima weapon?
you can also turn in unwanted green and up gear for seals but i'm unclear on the specifics of what stuff qualifies
I am away from my PC (which I where I always play on) and I'm currently using my laptop then this keeps happening 😩
does this have to do with that or just my connection
that should only appear if you get disconnected from the game
because your character is still loaded in for a while
happened to me thrice in 5 minutes already 😫
gather 2 or more people lv 90 finish A9S in under 2 mins each run x 21
if you guys are lucky, you'll be doing it in bonus hour and only need 11 runs
basically anything that's green/blue/pink, but their rank is too low to use that option.
oh ok u only need 2 now, that makes it much easier
yeah that would make the grind MUCHHH shorter
is someone logging into your account from somewhere else?
do you have OTP/2FA setup on your account?
yeah last time I did it, 2x lv 90 <2 mins average
lol i guess they do say anima weapons are the easiest to finish
it really is, most of the relic is just a poetics grind
and two steps just want you to do a bunch of dungeons/trials, which can all be solo'd at 90

how people manage to get lb3 on the bird phase in p3s?
Are people burning lb3 on the add phase?
yeah, how?
What ungodly abomination has pf come up with now
Well, not dying and having a maximum variety in the comp
to clear the birds on 2nd phase
are you sure? last time i did it no one die and i only see lb2
probably lb cheese with purposely staying low HP with high shielding+lots of mitigation skills to generate more lb gauge from aoe damage/mechanics
different mitigation can contribute to more LB generation
ah i see
If I bought a class skip, where would I go to buy the level 60 gear? I can't seem to find it.

the level 60 job gear used to be tomestone gear, so it got moved to the hunt vendors when it became outdated
I followed this feeding order to change my chocobo's color from default to soot black. Now it's grape purple o.O, any idea what i could be doing wrong? do i need to constantly feed chocobo as fast as i can? cuz i had few mins break when doing it
Dyeing is still RNG
some of the very dark/light colors have more RNG to them, like Soot Black
just keep telling it your current color and it'll keep fine-tuning the process
and be sure to feed it in the suggested order to avoid RGB value waste
Soz i don't understand with what you mean with this, english is not my main language. Do you mean i need to revert it back to default color and try again until it gets the right color?
no. you keep the color you got and then tell the Calculator what color your chocobo currently is
and then repeat the process until it finally hits Soot Black
I think I know the answer...but crafting is useful for end game right? Im not just wasting my time delaying finishing SB and hanging out in Diadem right?
it's decent if you want to supply yourself instead of buying from the marketboard
but after a couple weeks of a new raid tier most endgame crafted gear and raid supplies become very cheap to just buy from others
ah ok
you've got plenty of time before the next big crafting rush
well - maybe ill jsu get everything to mid 60's or so for now and then switch back to MSQ - I actually enjoy the time sink of this part for some reason haha
put music on and just gather/craft
There's always the opportunity of hidden profits from various options, like some housing furnitures, glamour items, or even sometimes raw materials/crafted materials
Darksteel Ore and Darksteel Nuggets are both level 50 materials/crafts, but retain pretty decent value due to high usage in Free Company Airships/Submarine recipes

if you want to do overmelding, yes
I think I tried to meld something out of fun on my level 65 pickaxe and couldnt
but if you only want to fill in the visible materia slots, then the NPC melders will do for a small gil fee.
great - ty for info Wynne
maybe just get everything to 65/70 and then ill continue SB
Did diamond wep drop 2 totems because it was long, because it was hard, or for some other reason? Was there an official reason given?
probably due to being a long fight and not having a checkpoint like the other weapon trials
hello guys!
Hi, can anyone give me a quick laydown of what crafting levequrests are? I saw it in a leveling guide..
i have my blue mage at 70 already, without doing the job quests
im trying to farm a lvl 68 skill (ultravibration)
but i been there for 2h with no luck
i am doing something wrong? could it be because the lack of job quests?
fight that has long cutscenes like Hades and Diamond usually drop 2, yeah
Enemy has to actually cast ultravibration
