When the devs update them
Is the alliance raid based on ff4 story like Tactics was to Ivalice or is it its own unique thing like Eden?
it's unique
it's entirely original and unique.
Awesome. I thought it was ff4 related, but nvm then lol
Pretty sure there was a lot of speculation on that
Or I'm wrong
it was always meant to be unique to 14
???
not talking to you, lmao
ok
Oh aight then. Figured it would be related to ff4 like ARR alliance was to FF3 or something
Nvm then lol
no, Vinyl covered it
you can't queue into p4s by yourself if you haven't cleared p3s this week
however, you can join someone else's party who HAS cleared and they can enter the instance with you along
you will get a warning when entering the instance that you forfeit loot from p3s for the week
so if none of your friends have cleared p3s either then you have to get someone who has
How long is the Garo event?
We don't know. Last one lasted several years though.
We weren’t given an end date. It could be years. The last one went on for three and a half.
I'll take it
given u need like 210k wolf marks for all the garo glams, i dont think theyll end it quickly
How do people take no damage even though they're not using guard? People keep solo killing our whole team and we can't do anything about it ._.
How do you upload/dowload HUD config to the server?
On the character select screen, click the settings icon to the right of the character name
Once you buy a house/apartment, do you also get a teleportation spot, like with the FC house?
Apartment, yes, to the outside of the apartment building. House, you need a mini aetherite on the lawn.
a house needs an aetheryte
In short, yes, an apartment automatically gives you a teleport point.
Unless you like scrolling through ward lists and runninf to your house
hello everyone! I have a problem with the ffxiv launcher I am facing this error [30410][30607][20457][409] I tried alot of solutions but still its not working
Oh okay so for the apartment it comes automatically. And the aetheryte, it's craftable?
thanks
The aetheryte for the house must be purchased from your Grand Company with GC seals.
Ah cool, finally a good use for those
You could just buy lootboxes
Get some money (but mostly garbage) but sometimes money

how do I open Series Malmstones on a controller? d-pad doesn't seem to reach

what is the general rotation for samurai in the new pvp? i want to try out the class
If you uncover a map while gathering, but don't gather it, can you no longer find maps in other level areas?
You can
I can't seem to figure out why I can't uncover lvl 90 maps
so long you didn't gather it yor daily allowance is untouched, so you can open nodes till the right one spawns
I just can't figure out if there is something I need to do or change to be able to uncover them on lvl 90 nodes
Gather in area 6
Uhhh, this might sound dumb but how do you attack in pvp? I tried pvp for the first time to do the new mode and got absolutely carried by my team because it wouldn't let me attack other players 😅
can set them at the wolfs den and also use the dummies there to test them
is this automatically converted to local time?
It is yes
I did the same XD I walked with the team, died with the team, and lost with the team, but I couldn't fight with the team
Is there some place where I can look at all the new 6.1 armour from dungeons and alliance and stuff i need a new glam
What does the archfiend attire from the pvp pass thing look like? Is there anywhere I can see it?
also in the patch notes
Oki, ty
is it possible to make it so when youre in pvp the layout of your hotbar changes
as in my normal hotbar is just 3 straight lines, but id like only a couple boxes for my pvp one
Make a macro to change your hud layout or something
And make a separate hud layout in the hud editor
gotcha
also are we limited to the preset amount of boxes that are available?
these
Yes
okok tyty
how much season xp does frontlines give vs CC
Depends
for bronze silver and gold
idk if this will help, but there is a setting in there somewhere to make the boxes not in use transparent
ooooooo awesome, thanks for the tip!
I don't know it this goes here but
How can I get more eggs from the event? I only have 3 but there is an item that costs 9
do the fate again
oohhh thanks
Wait there isn't set class restrictions in CC? We just got rolled cause we had no tank and they had 2 healers wth
no
That's dumb
When everyone on their team has heals and cc and 2 healers it's literally impossible to kill anyone
every job has cc 🤔
no it isnt
youre not coordinated enough
ive won as a tank and all dps against all dps and a healer
because i marked the healer and we tunneled him
then when he died we killed the dps
We had no tank, they had a tank and 2 healers, we couldn't kill them
that means you had 3 more dps than them
ignore tank
We did, when there's 2 healers they can heal each other and themselves
then cc them
Them being a tank or healer doesn't really matter
so they dont heal
^
So how do I get cc immunity?
purify
You dont
and guard
if you purify a cc, you get cc immunity
the point is to cc a target and everyone bursts them so they die in 2-3 gcds
for 5s
literally just
learn your job
and you'll win
you can't braindead mash your keyboard anymore like you could in frontline before
So the key to winning is having friends and a party
the key to winning is to learn your job
instead of botting
Mashing kasha combo isn't going to get you a kill
properly utilizing ogi and meikyo will
you can't get out of CC by just spamming pot and running away
Warrior has potential to be immortal but if you can't use your skills properly and guard burst you'll melt
^
tl;dr
skill issue
get better
you got outplayed by a co-ordinated team
co-ordinate with your next team
im playing warrior in CC and i can live for a good 10+ seconds in a 1v4 because i know the job
Exactly, have friends and a party
bud
you dont need friends dude
Use quick chats to help communicate
And the target markers
If you get wiped don't run 1v5
Wait to regroup and push together
probably because that guy knows how to play his job and all of you are uncoordinated
so you cant counter him
or you don't know what the fuck the job does
And they're guarding and purifying according
so you get rolled when a sam uses chiten and you all braindead attack them
leading to their LB wiping you
should move this to #archived-player-vs-player probably
How would a CC-less job do their thing then
no job is cc less
3s of bind is significant enough?
yes?
Bind stops them running away
yes because your burst isnt really longer than 2-3 gcds
So you can catch straggles
3s is huge
My questions are sorta weirdly specific
i literally just mark a player to tunnel in my matches until we kill him then i mark the next player and that works pretty well
silence a sam shortly before their midare expires
congrats, they can't midare and you ruined their burst
in my head, if I 1vX as a BLM, I either have a CC or more damage
it's not a matter of "this job is broken"
or rather
it's a matter of "he's stupid and i'm not"
12s of dot doesnt matter if your burst kills him in 2 gcds
which is the length of bind
I'm only taking a 1vX into account because I cannot depend on my team
in the strictest sense of the terms
you should
then coordinate your team
Dot when your have support and people frontlining
co-ordination is key
Use quick chats people 👏
I think you mean one player has a brain
you cant treat cc as individual 1v1s
use your quick chat
say "im attacking X"
put a marker on them
cc is a team mode.
tunnel
if you're 1v1'ing you're not contributing either
so far all the coordination I've had is "mark healer, go crazy"
literally be the change
i mark someone as soon as i enter the match
get a brain
or get a teammate with a brain and use theirs
like there isn't much to say
git gut or die trying
you can't be braindead anymore
Especially with blm who can murder If they have team support
i mean theres going to be times when youre up against a really good pvp player and your team isnt and they just wipe you
cant really avoid that
also I forget to use everything that's not damage buttons, but that's a pure skill issue
cc is everything in pvp
'Times' yes 12 games in a row
then youre probably part of the "your team isnt good"
if the other team has a healer then pure damage isnt going to do anything
healers can outheal constant dmg
hence why cc is everything
is anyone getting dced more often?
I was meaning stuff like recuperate and purify 
hence why i had a match when we were at 98% victory but got pushed back because nobody would tunnel the healer i marked
You really need to learn to love recuperation and purify
Even just trying to spam recuperation while you're being busted can make you stay alive abit longer to try and guard
For team support to arrive
I forget BLM doesn't use mana in pvp
No one does
Only recuperation uses it
You can also try falling back to a medkit on the field if it's close by for the full heal instantly
i honestly forget medkits are a thing
is it normal to be under leveled while going through story? i have to get 3 more levels to continue and dunno what to do
ye 46 to 49
That's normal if you've only did story and nothing else
is only 1 map available rn for cc?
ah okok ty
They rotate every few hours
Was halfway through a combo LB and got blown in the air :(
whats the minimum level for the garo event?
you can use guard before that comes up
i meant item level, but I guess it's basically not an issue
oh do we need to buy the battle pass
Literally 0
Your gear means nothing in pvp
there's no purchasable battle pass lol just play to get rewards
(and thank god there's no premium version)
Seemingly next major patch based on a comment during the ll
How do I change my PVP portrait? Like when introducing the teams?> How do I change that?
Could change with the ranked season tradeover
Which is 6.18 iirc
It's not in the PVP actions I don't think, and I don't see a option for it in the portrait or Adventure plate things
Right click portrait > use as Instant profile
I did do that/. It still isn't showing up

It's separate every job and the portrait needs to be applicable with the gear you're using
I see, so I should link them with gear sets. got it. It might have changed when I changed set.
is rival wings a new mode or is it just something i missed
Old mode
gotcha
Been around since stormblood ish
gad dayam
It wasn't thaaaaaat popular
Should i do all the quests in the beginning area ? Or are they just not worth doing
Hey I’m playing a lalafell for the first time and I need help with camera adjustments lol I have the angle set to what I want but can you change the camera height?
Lol no, this ain't wow

Is there a way to change your home city state?
I regret being affiliated with Gridania
why tho
Because instead of COMMERCE or OCEAN I have stuck up hippie elves
Padjal aren't elves
You aren't stuck with the city you start in. You can join the GC in a different city and change your home aetherite.
I know, but it still says home city is gridania
i mean the other cities arent that great either
there's no way to change it outside of making a new character
boo

!pvpaction Chain saw
Delivers an attack with a potency of 10,000 to all enemies in a straight line before you.
Additional Effect: 3% chance to deal damage equal to 100% of target's HP while under the effect of Analysis
Effect cannot be triggered when targeting players riding machina or non-player combatants.
Additional Effect: Grants Drill Primed
Maximum Charges: 2
Can only be executed while under the effect of Chain Saw Primed.
This weaponskill does not share a recast timer with any other actions.
※Action changes to Drill while under the effect of Drill Primed.
※This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.
that's the potency
so I had just bad luck with that 3%?
Yeah
wtf r u talking about
scroll up for context
ive been reading it
Gridania is "don't fuck with Nature and the Elementals"
because they're worse than any other force pretty much
I say that confidently as a whm main
the Padjal just don't want you fucking stuff up
How do I change my plate for PVP?
.
I literally did that before but nothing happened
Wandering minstrel on sharlayan
talk to the minstrel in sharlayan
Same as you unlock previous 2 EX
ty ty
whats % drop of the atmas thingies for the zodiac relic stage?
i've done 5 fates and 0 drops
We don't have specific numbers
make sure you have your zenith equipped, and you're in the correct zone
But also not getting it within 5 fates isn't entirely unusual either
if it says ''north shroud'' its on the entire map, right?
how do we start the garo event?
oooo
go to the wolves den, talk to the disreputable priest. buy gear from her, once you have a full set (barring accesories or weapons for non arr + hw jobs) get a title, equip title. do more pvp
also can i have different binds for different layouts?
no
aww that sucks
can you queue as a party in frontline
Emergency maintenance what happened
yes, should be able to
hotfixes
i didnt see any emergency maint notice
tonight.
oh
theres multiple lodestone posts about known issues
goodbye drk tooltip typo
like two bards being entirely unable to play with each other in a party at the moment.
I’m not complaining I won’t even be able to play for a few days due to irl stuff so if maint happens it has no effect on me
I’m just curious
That does sound like a very big issue
I think it was about the songs triggering each other
Is Reaper good? I'm new Idk classes. I'm at level 50 rn
All classes are good
every job is viable.
!meta
you need to own endwalker and get to lvl 70 to unlock reaper
I have endwalker yeah
Quick question, is it normal to have to wait this long for a Mog Station thing? I got the Paissa mount around 7am EST, its now almost 3pm and I still have not received it yet.
it can take up to 24hrs
That's normal
it's account wide so it's especially normal to take a bit.
Gotcha, thanks. First time actually getting a mount nothing else I've ever got took this long.
New items plus a sale can lead to some congestion of the item store servers
like, the trial?
Yes, I cant kill him with the npc's tried like 10 times now
are you targeting the nail in the center
Yup, i get it down to like 2% and he instantly picks it up
Doesn't matter how quick I do it :/
you have to do it before he casts Hellfire
you're doing something wrong, then.
As soon as it appears on the screen, I attack it
Is ur gear okay?
is your gear repaired
Its at 77% but says I'm not a high enough level to repair it
What class u playing?
Thaumaturge
Oke gimme a sec
you spamming fire correctly?
triple sure?
100% positive
How much is a rename?
I'm in a party now
8 bucks
Im running it on blm to check lmao
I will see how we do
!faq blmleveling
What seeds+turf would you guys recommend to make gil?
@wheat aurora i did it on thm now and im sure ur rotation was off because it works fine on thm
Heya, anyone knows why the gearset icons on the hotbar no longer show the ilvl?
🤔 they never did?
They did
they showed the gearset number assigned
I remember seeing my ilvl on the gearset icon, like Bard (*565)
oh you mean like hovering over it?
Ye ye
they split the displays
Moving from a standard world to a preferred world is free right
doesn't matter much anyways
How do I disable stuff like Reaper's screen shake again?
How do I close my eyes in portraits?
Did they change fashion report or something ? because I tried last night and it said it’s not working . Today isn’t working either
judging doesn't open until friday
So I missed the current one I guess
you missed last week
the one that you have right now, can only be judged after Friday
and that's when you head to #kupo-bot-spam and type !fr
Are the treasure chests from the AR weekly restricted?
Is the next one coming before 6.2 or after?
6.3 and then 6.5
F
For the current one, gear is 1 a week, coin is 1 a week, and cluster is 1 a week. Any cosmetic rewards, such as minions and orchestrion rolls, can be farmed.
What's the issue with bard that they're fixing on emergency maint?
When another bard in the party executes "the Wanderer's Minuet," your "the Wanderer's Minuet" action changes to "Pitch Perfect."
So yesterday my husband created a square enix account on his ps5, but it is tied to the same email that his pc account is from. Now we have no way to change the password on the old account as a password change just changes the new account's password. Has anyone ever had this issue?
i see, thank you
you can't make multiple accounts with the same email.
it's the same squenix account that you're logging into on ps5 and pc.
You can have multiple service accounts under an SE account, but I don't think buying the PS5 version makes a new one. The password would remain the same anyway.
Yeah, we have two emails for "Account Registration Completed" One from 2021 and one from yesterday when he did that. I can't get into the old account now which has his pc version of the game
can i get this as a mount?
that's the shb collector's edition mount.
Oh wow
can you still get shb collectors edition
Yes, you can buy it on mogstation
yes yes the money just buys pixels but the pixels grant me dopamine and serotonin so really im buying dopamine and serotonin
Are you able to login to mogstation with the account and check which platforms are enabled on it?
Weirdly, I have two "Account Registration Completed" emails too. About a year apart, and I have no idea why.
Actually I think it just says that when you sub.
how do I heal people in pvp as sage?
I logged into mog station with the email that we used a year ago to purchase and play the standard edition, but now mog station only says "Playing on Playstation 5 | Playerstation 4"
kardia, pneuma
Did you maybe cancel your old service account? Some people make that mistake when they meant to only cancel their sub. If you did, you likely would have an email confirmation for it.
Okay, maybe I'm confused, what is the different between Account Registration and Service account registration?
I also have an email for a square enix member account
An SE account can have multiple service accounts. Like sub-accounts so you can have family share one account, but have their own characters and such (but also requires separate game purchases). Usually when you register the game with a code (or on PS since it's automatic) it creates a service account if you don't already have one on the SE id. If I'm remembering correctly.
SE Members is the store account. It's separate from the SE account you use you login to the game.
I'm currently playing ARR and don't really know what's going on in the story. Anyone have a good video explaining the story in detail?
Okay, gotcha. So I see one service account activation in 2021, along with an account registration and members account registration in 2021. Yesterday I have another account registration email. So now I need to figure out where his standard edition went. Does SE have a way to search which account my game code went to?
does crystalline conflict give class exp?
Yeah it gives a decent amount
it's just that i can't really follow the story. It's so boring sometimes though I love that game so I skip lots of text boxes. Now I search for something that explains the story to me again :<
For the PC version? If you bought it from the SE store, they would have emailed you a link that leads to a page with the code. You can also find it in the order history as long as you can login to the store account.
I see the purchase in the square enix members account, is there anyway to figure out the service account it is tied to?
No, the store doesn't connect to the main SE accounts in any way. It's like buying it from any other store. They just give you the code.
someone told me to go to the disreputable priest but i cant see her?
You might need to contact support to sort out the account confusion.
nvm i see her
Wolves Den is really busy lately. It may take a minute for her to load in.
where are you in the story
Is garo event live now or not?
Yes
We don't know. No date has been given.
Ok thanks
The last one lasted several years. So we've likely got a ton of time.
Very cool
Feeling dumb where’s the pvp skills page ?
under pvpprofile, which you can access thru the character menu or /pvpprofile
Thanks!
I'm currently at MSQ Lv.25
Are there any feasts?
Feasts?
As in PVP Feasts? Those have been removed for now
As in the PvP mode? Feast is dead for the time being. It may come back if enough people make noise about it.
Oh
It has been replaced with Crystal Conflict. CC is a complete replacement for now. All of the old Feast achievements and such carry over.
Comicstorian
Has a good recap
Hello sorry for ranting here earlier and leaving discord. I'm settled but would like to notify that apparently PLD is a confirmed no to go job for Crystalline Conflict. Don't worry. It's not skill issue.
that's where I'm at
I even looked it up and on their screen it was right below adamantoise whistle
sadge
tick recently added items @leaden ginkgo
Did you complete the quest "Brave New World" ?
also that
Anyone get this error during PvP in Crystal Conflict? I've been getting it maybe 1 in 10 games
You might need to run Restore Game Data from the launcher
If you're getting crashes in new content, chances are something went wrong with the patch download.
Can you work on more than one Anima weapon at a time?
just out of curiousity, is it fine to report an afk player in pvp? I would argue being afk in this ranking system is a form of griefing that would fall under the harassment option for the support desk form

Yes as long as you keep them on different quest steps.
Hi, ive never been huge into FFXIV as I was told the pvp is not really something taken seriously. However, I heard theres gonna be a pvp patch releasing which reworks a lot of stuff. Is it worth getting the game to try that out? Or does this stuff happen quite often anyways?
You can play it on the free trial. You just need to progress to level 30. And I can say the new pvp stuff is fun.
The pvp update is out now. Whether or not it's worth it to you is hard to say. If you mean, "do pvp reworks happen often?", not really.
Nice, is there any sort of ranked or competitive pvp modes? or is it all quite casual?
Did they have an end date for GARO? Because there's nothing on lodestone
Yes, there is both ranked and casual modes
No. The last one lasted a few years though, so it's not likely to end soon.
No
Oh wait yeah sorry about that. I forgot.
How are* the support services of Square Enix? Are they normally pretty fast to respond to tickets?
Around 30 mins I say. Otherwise just call em. It's faster
It varies. Getting phone or chat support is the best way to go.
If it's auto it's automated
Otherwise 20-30 minutes for a reply outside business hours
Oh holy cow. Okay. I'm used to 24-48 hour wait times on WoW. I'll give em a quick call and see if we can't get this sorted
Thank you!
since it's a known issue that i590 crafted is kinda bugged on substats, are the subtats for aug gear just increases on the unaug?
or do they actually swap the substats completely at times
Yes they're the same
Yeah there was a lodestone post about it
Augmenting is just raising the stats
ye i saw the post which is why im asking
the agraria coin is obtainable once per week?
Yes
does the lv 590 gear from the new alliance raid upgradeable to 600
No
Only tome and crafted gear is ever upgradeable
Anyone know how long the Garo event will last?
I can give you a quick recap in dms if you need! (:
I quite like some of the stat changes
the new 590 gear for crafters/gatherers is only from the left side, or accesories too?
left side only
only tools and left side
thxs
Do they have new vendors for the tokens we get on the 25-Man Raid at all?
Nesvaaz (in Radz) is the vendor for them
You use them to buy raidant twine and coating
The ex trial/special fate vendor
a friend was saying you can't queue into crystalline conflict as a party/with friends? is that truee?
Yes. It's solo queue only
do they plan on expanding it to parties or will it stay that way?
I'm literally about to cry tears of joy. In 40 minutes they were able to reinstate the old service account and we got our game back. Thank you for everyone who offered help, I look forward to joining your lovely community!
Eventually yes, they didn’t want it right away to be fair to solo players
guys does challenge log challenges reset daily or weekly?
Weekly reset
thanks
honestly it'd be a bad change to have full parties for cc, since the amount of coordination that can be done, although it should be able to be queued with 1 other person
Is there a way to redo the hatching tide quest for more eggs? I cant find the NPC if there is one
Do the fate again, it’s in the same spot

Is there a way to setup my pvp hotbar to use the same keybinds as my not Pvp hotbar(s)?
because Im already out of keys to press dangit
yeah, they .... should just change
Go to Wolves Den. It will swap your hotbars to pvp mode. Put pvp actions on it. When you leave, they will go back to normal.
^
they all have no numbers next to them
oh wait it swaps them from pve to pvp?
Yep
so just while in the wolves den, take everything off and put pvp stuff on?
and then when I leave pvp my hotbars will be untouched?
You shouldn't see any PvE skills at all when you get to Wolves Den, yeah.
Yeah and any changes you make in Wolves Den will apply automatically when you enter a PvP area or instance.
You might see a lot of slashed-through skills, though. Those are old PvP skills.
I didnt know that, thank you guys ❤️
I just saw everything go to grey and got reeeally confused
can you only send mail to people on your friends list??
yes
aw that's so sad
It prevents spam from bots/goldsellers/people who would harass people
that's fair, I wanted to send a mail with a rose to a rabbit guy with a sick outfit
You could just trade with them
so I'm coming up on the level limit of the free trial and was wondering if I buy the game through steam can I link it to my existing account?
Yep, that’s the only time you can swap
guys Im stupid, how do I access my Adventurers Plate? Im on the patch notes and it says to goto my character menu, but Im there and I dont see it? 🐒 🍌
Character-> plate
Menu, as in start menu or red round buttons. Not the character screen where you see your stats.
!faq gametime
!faq subprice
Yes
I only see add game time card, do I need to buy a card on the square enix members site?
No, you can use credit
its the first button on mogstation
what are the makai/garo titles?
Wear a complete set of armor (plus weapon if your chosen job has one) and present yourself to the Priest to receive a matching title. At which point you can then put the armor away as you need to be wearing the title to earn towards the mounts.
ah, got it
Ohh I thought the other option was to add Crysta to my account, not add game time with crysta.
Thanks!<3
any1 know what top this is?
also since the hotbar got deleted, are the pvp actions the same from crystaline conflict?
no, yeah, my previous pvp bar is unaviable, so I assume it got a radical change
ye, I know, just trying to figure how it works
Yeah, just get rid of all the slashed skills (unless you want them for some perverse sense of nostalgia, not like you don't have the room), hit that little crossed-swords icon, plunk all your new skills on.

Hello, im having a bit of a problem confirming the time of the hotfixes maintenance- Everyone tells me its not started yet but the site tells me it was just finished- can anyone help pls? X)
How do I get the eat egg emote? I did the first quest of the event
Do more fates, buy from the vendor
What does the error message say.
you cant queue with 8 people if its 4 man content
One of your party members does not meet the requirements for this duty.
for 8 man content
we tried new extreme
and old extreme
So.
a) is everyone the correct level
b) does everyone have the content unlocked
c) does everyone meet the correct minimum item level
im in "duty complete"
and we tried on titan hard lol
didnt work
mhh some healer left and we're fine
does everyone have the minimum ilvl

for titan hard ? i would say yes
Is someone on a crafter or gatherer maybe?
How can I view someone’s search info? I click on them and then do sub commands but it doesn’t appear
I’m on PS4
is this the right place to ask for some help with leveling up puglist?? I have no group of friends that play final fantasy with me, and the que's are rather long
It is not, unfortunately. =/
ah i see, very sorry!
Best thing to do is just find something to do while you’re queueing
ah, okay. thank you!
when in doubt, open youtube
is the 24man coin weekly locked
Yes.
ok sweet
what was added as bicolor gemstone rewards? just more crafting mats?
this is more of a quicklauncher question but, ive downloaded ffxiv in my ssd with the steam launcher; but when i open it(with qcklaunchr), it says that an update is missing and proceeds to download the entire game, again

did you point it to the right download location
yeah
I have a question, anyone here willing to donate about 3 mil Gil? trying to get a plot of land
No begging
Hey hey I'm asking for support
Not begging could've easily said no -_-
Hey I have a question regarding housing: is it possible to "sell" or "give" your house to a friend if you get your hands on one?
no kaiten anymore?
Nope. The stuff you would use it on just always crits now. Details are in the patch notes.
they announced this
So I can't sell houses? But I've seen a few people do that in the past. How did they do it?
oh ok
was away till yesterday so didnt know what changes happnd
Patch notes
hello!
Is this game good for someone who enjoys life-skilling? I have previously played for a bit so I am familiar with how the job and crafting system works but I was wondering if it's beneficial in the long run, maybe for making money in the auction house or something? I'm not interested in the main story at all, and I'm not interested in group play or pvp.
I just want to progress in the game through lifeskilling, as an unwinding and relaxing activity but I'd like to see something in return for my effort.
What is the life-skill "end-game"?
I dont think you can really level jobs without playing the Mainstory since it unlocks a bunch of new content.
So you'd have to play the story.
An older housing purchasing system a long time ago allowed it I believe. But then we got the old random hidden timer system as a repsone, and now the new lottery system. Some people still get away with it by getting an FC house and then selling the FC itself, but it's highly discouraged.
so would you say that it's kind of like let's say Diablo 3, in that the "real" game starts after the story
If you form a synced PF group for the new dungeon, can you still leave/abandon in between if you are trying to farm glams only? Does it count as a penalty for newer content or does it still act the same as any old content?
No? Everything is the real game
For some the "real" game is the story
For others its Raids or PvP (which sucks, still)
Or even crafting.
my point is, in Diablo 3, your long term enjoyment starts once you unlocked access to everything by finishing the story
maybe a bad example if you're not familiar with it
Mhh damn.. a friend is trying to get a house via the lottery and I thought I could help them out by entering as well and in case I get lucky, and they not, I could give it to them.
Isn't that like every game
but i have to play the story first, to unlock everything and have a complete "free roam" opportunity in FF XIV?
Ok, I have some questions. Which range DPS is best to have an alt job as, a bard or Machinist?
Either, it doesn’t matter
So uh anyone know of a good Gil farm that would take much less time ?
That's very time consuming XD
there are a few games i really like but they are marred by forced open world pvp so i'm looking for something that could replace those games and the activities i enjoy, like resource gathering and crafting. I was thinking of giving FF XIV another chance but i'm not so sure if it's my kind of thing if i have to play through the MSQ to have access to all the content
what will i miss if i dont finish the story?
There is zero forced PvP in overworld zones, so no worries on that count.
Also everything is progressively locked behind story
You can’t play the content if you don’t do the story
The story is the main point of the game.
i see
You will miss a lot of content that will be unlocked for you. You can't get to other cities / areas to gather better materials for example.
You'll definitely want to get to Heavensward for the Firmament
so it's a theme park ride, mostly, rather than an open world
FFXIV is not open world at all
I'd say it's open world
ok, thanks for your inputs!
No its not since it has loading screens. :P
-_-
And it also has different maps.
It's still open world
In video games, an open world is a game mechanic of using a virtual world that the player can explore and approach objectives freely, as opposed to a world with more linear and structured gameplay
Good luck going to Ishgard.
How do i put the little description in my adventurer plate?
If FFXIV was open world, you could go there from like level 1.
No
Edit your search info
Thats your search info
i just want to be a hunter and fisherman, i'm not interested in solving everyone's problems
Most open world games put u behind bars of the story
Can you remind me where was that
i work in retail so i do that in my work time 😄
It has open zones that you can freely return to once unlocked. But you still have to unlock them via story.
Yet you can go everywhere - for the most part :)
how long would you say it takes to complete the story?
Cool you still can’t progress to higher stuff without story
Over 100+ hours @spring hemlock
If you have party list visible, right click your self. Or open the player search window and click yourself there.
Ooooh
Okay got it
Thanks!
i think i am level 30 or something if i remember correctly, i remember last visiting a white city of towers, by the sea, and i started my fishing profession there and there was a den of rogues
hey what does this mean?
it's probably still early in the story
That you dont have an active subscription?
Thats probably Limsa :D
dont you get like a few months of subscription when you but the full edition?
yeah the name sounds familiar
do i need to like do a quest to unlock ultima unreal and start getting rewards or if i have the fox guy in idyllshire already im good
wait then why am i in a party for the instance
we're quing right now
what the hell did i join
that's not uwu right???
It is out
ok cool it is out im not the crazy one this time phew
Hmm I didn’t see it in the patch notes. So like that’s on me I guess
It's there
no worries fuil it happens to the best of us ❤️
i deadass still have never done an unreal trial before though, do i automatically get the hallows thing?
whats a recruitment code?
One month AFAIK
is it like khloe where i need to have an item with me to get credit
,,, whats afaik mean
It's a code given to you by a friend for the recruit a friend thing. You can get some bonus stuff from it.
as far as i know
30 days from the base game
That's it
oh ty
I have a problem with my launcher it says unable to perform version update. any clue on how to fix this. I have been trying for hours
!faq xivlauncher
I tried it same thing
the only trouble my regular launcher gave me was that for some stupid reason despite the entire installation being on my F drive (a SSD i keep separate from my C:/), it needed at least like 10 gigs on my C available to update
Keep in mind it wasn't actually filling up my C, or if it was it was deleting it right after, but despite the program file being in the F drive it still needed a buffer on my C
Then your computer is having trouble reaching the update server. Possibly internet problems.
even if my internet is working perfectly?
What are the important blue mage spells to get past the 101 moon flute whisper freeze/ultravib, the heals and the ARR primal ones ?
yes because a server on the specific DNS path can be broken
If you know the URL you get the update from you can try doing a tracert to the specific dns in cmd and see if it shows up as connection timed out or refused but really your best bet is to wait if that's the issue
if this is still occuring some time later try reinstalling or something 🤷♀️
In the native launcher there's actually a button for fix installation
Hi guys, do any of you remeber about the zodiac weapon ?
That's a reskin tho, ain't it
did Raw Intuition not have healing before 6.0? was it nascent flash that was used instead?
Of like Facet or something
Yes
its reaper starter gear at 70
but undyeable
so now nascent flash is the same as raw intuition just with added effects?
Yes
I wanted to go for the atma part
andi've read that i didnt need to finish the fate to get the crystal
Which is a reskin
That’s very incorrect
does it mean i could just only kill 1 mob for the fate and i'll still ahve a chance for a atma cristal ?
Which PVP option do I need to do to get Crystal Trophies? Im doing Ranked and not getting anything
is it this one?
oh okay, is there a dyeable version then? if so, where can I get it?
I decided this game is not for me, but thanks a lot for the help to those who answered my questions
no, it was a different error. have you tried going to the settings and clicking restore game data?
under advanced settings
!iglam true linen coat of striking
Only this
For mnk and sam
yup still the same thing
have a nice Easter holiday everyone
you get crystals when you rank up in the series
not when you win
thanks a lot!
I believe so, but you still have to do enough to succeed/win the fate. If it fails, such as a required npc dying, you won't get the atma.
dont yo uget a reward anyway if the fate isnt finished ?
Like killing mobs
damn i didnt remember it being that annoying
That’s how fates have always worked, dude
i mean relic eap
Which series rank gives crystals?
There’s only one series
Only Crystalline Conflict
Look at your PvP profile
You get EXP in Frontline as well for the "Battlepass" which will give you Crystals once you Rank up
Only ranked cc increases your ranking
Just look at the malmstones
In the PvP profile
Hey People. I already have three Souls of the Crafter (Blacksmith, Goldsmith, Carpenter). They are lvl 55 Souls. I'm lvl 70+ now in these jobs. If I were to purchase a Soul now, would that new Soul be at a higher level, with better stats?
No, there’s no difference
ok, thanks
You can only have 3 crafter souls at a time regardless
“Any more and (unexplained bad thing) would happen”
Yo I think i just beat ARR so how do i get my glowing weapons
Buy em, craft em, please don’t do zodiac
isnt zodiac the glowing weapons
Heyo Macro Question here, I want to put one of the new pvp limit breaks into a macro but I can't seem to get it to work? Tried the specific name of the move with /pvpac and nothing
And you’ll have an even worse time then
!quest the weaponsmith of legend
An unhandled error has occurred: '70058'
If you believe this error to be a bug please report to the Kupo Bot Support Discord: http://discord.gg/4dpPFcWURA
!quest Up in Arm
Somehow i cannot take the quest to make it atma
has there been anyone who have uploaded what each framing kit looks like out of those you can buy for trophy crystals?
can u do this for every class or only 1?
all of them
Every class that existed during said expansion
cool
ARR relic only ARR jobs etc
is there a relic for HS?
theres a relic every expansion
is there a reason to get them all?
HW relic is way easier to do
the older ones are pretty much just for glamour
is ARR hard or tedious?
but when EW ones come out they will be the best weapon of that expansion (when fully upgraded)
Relics are normally swapping with savage weapons for best ilvl
Why cant i accept the quest for atma relic ? i have zenith equipped and yet i cannot find the quest
So it'll be a catch up weapon, then bis, then catch up next patch, then bis again and by the end of the expac patch cycle it's BIS until next expac
Also do you have all 12 atmas
thats the point, i want to get the quest to get those
but the npc wont give it to me
But it comes with one big advantage... customizable substats. (And you know... shiny)
Im staying as F2P tbh and just trying to do as much content as possible
It's just a little boost if you're pushing savage/didn't get savage weapons
And if you do most of the time savage weapons beat it out
idk what savage is
But there's usally a patch or two (then the long gap at the end of the expac)
For the Garo event, if you had everything from before, then the only new things to obtain are the sets for the 6 newest jobs, right? No new mounts or anything?
And titles of course
You know... for the new jobs
Ah yeah this is what I meant
Like doesn’t this make it kinda a door boss
Can’t everyone skip P3 together
It does
why cant take the quest to unlock atma then ?
Gotta keep progressing the relic.
did you do the rest of the quests before it
!quest up in arms
how can i pick it then ?
Go to quest giver, after completing pre reqs
So I havent Dark Knighted before, hence my question: Did Blood Weapon used to have a duration ala Hypercharge?
Like you have to fit so many attacks within the duration, where now its stack based?
Same as old berserk
I started in December
And berserk went from 10s buff, to stacks
I was just comparing to another tank
What does having stacks change
You're guaranteed to get all the hits
Before it was harder to fit the maximum number of gcds under the buff, especially with bad ping
Stacks makes it more reliable and consistent
Without enough skill speed you couldn't get 5 hits under the timer
Skill speed and good enough ping
when it was duration based you needed to build enough skill speed to hit 5 bloodspillers
now youre just guaranteed 3 bloodspillers assuming youre not sleeping at your pc
Timer was reduced to compensate for that iirc
or horribly mistimed it
It was increased by 5s
Oh
i never did The second coil of bahamut turn 1 this week, but it got greyed out, anyone know what caused this?
Did you use a token
That's last week's book
yeah i did, lol didnt know it had this side effect
Update might have broken it
o.o
Oh wait yeah that's how redoing a duty works
There still has to be x stickers and x duties complete
So letting you repeat one duty isn't gonna change that number
yeap, ty all 😅
is there a way to remember which house/plot of land I placed a bid on, in case I didn't write it down? 😅
Timer menu
thank you so much!
Is it possible to solo thordan extreme? I need the new sage weapon 
Yes, it’s been possible for a while
