[little swift]

if you still want to play on that character, you can, provided you have the login credentials

[main ether]

I am really sorry, let me try put them in a nicer fashion! It is a bit of an eyesore I agree!

[little swift]

new game + is a thing you can use to replay old story if you want

[remote lintel]

however ng+ has no rewards

[warm snow]

like feel free to rapid fire individual questions, we can reply to each one

[little swift]

yeah but if they're mid HW they don't need those rewards its just the story content

[narrow jay]

Beyond that, there's really no such thing as "progress lost". Even if you started with a brand new character, don't delete your first one. You can play through the entire story from beginning to end on the new one if you want, and then pick the first one back up and go "oh yeah this is where they were".

[main ether]

Okay I have 4-5 questions, is okay to put them in one at a time, or will that spam you?

[warm snow]

ye fire away

[remote lintel]

just ask them in order

[warm snow]

at worst we might take longer to answer some of them

[main ether]

•How can I find out what has happened in the story currently in regards to where my character is in the game? I am a bit nervous to google online as I would like to try avoid spoilers if possible! - I think reading your responses there is a NG+ mode?

[sleek needle]

Remember to spoiler stuff if it's spoilery

[main ether]

• Is there a way to find out about the stories behind Dungeons and Raids? They were fun to run through but I didn't have the context surrounding them. (e.g. Crystal Tower / Alexander Raids and so on, along with the dungeons).?

[boreal storm]

The inn also lets you re watch cutscenes

[remote lintel]

read your journal

[main ether]

• Are professions worth doing on the trial or at all? I haven't really explored them but my experience in other MMO's is that they don't really offer much.?

• Is there PvP in this game? I am uncertain if it is available to me on the trail but I don't think I have stumbled across it.?

[remote lintel]

new game+

[main ether]

• This may sound Naïve, is Endwalker the end of the game, is it too late to restart back up??

[remote lintel]

sure if you want

[boreal storm]

Free trial players can’t do PvP

[remote lintel]

yes, there was recently a rework

[warm snow]

ng+ is pure story 0 rewards, you can also ng+ some sidequestlines, like crystal tower. which is crucial to the main story later on

[remote lintel]

no it isnt

[boreal storm]

Lol no, we still have plot to do

[autumn anvil]

Yes, gathering/crafting jobs are quite in-depth even just at the trial levels. Plus they have some story quests attached as well.

[remote lintel]

oh but you cant pvp on the trial

i forgot to add

since there was a bot wave

[warm snow]

it's the end of a 10 year story that started in 1.0, we've begun working towards a brand new story line in the latest patch

[main ether]

Thank you everyone, apologies for the initial spam and the individual question spam but I really apprecaite your help

[sleek needle]

It's not the end of the story, it's the finish to this arc

[warm snow]

there are youtubers but as I said you can NG+ the raid storylines, would recommend doing so at least for crystal tower

[warm snow]

Freeloaders are banned /s but trial is actually just not allowed due to people being dicks with cheats

[main ether]

I am currently on the trial despite 300 hours. I plan to buy the game when I have a bit more money saved for the game and sub but am I hindering myself too much with the gil cap? I think I was stuck at 300k

[warm snow]

300k is the gil cap for free trial

but 300k is also honestly not a lot of money

[sleek needle]

It's fine anyway, you don't need gil all that much except glam and housing

And the gil you "lose" by being at cap won't make much of a difference

[main ether]

I think I will do the game from sratch using NG+ it should be relaxing and won't feel so overwhelming because I know the systems and my classes a little bit

Will I be level 60 doing the NG+ or do you get scaled down?

[warm snow]

some stuff can be a bit slow paced, but paying attention to the story will pay off

[sleek needle]

[warm snow]

you keep your level but in dungeons and trials etc you will be synced to whatever content

[main ether]

I really enjoyed the story, I just wish I payed more attention to the story surronding dugenons/zones and Raids

[remote lintel]

to unlock ng+ btw

[main ether]

thank you!

[warm snow]

oh they also just did a MASSIVE REWORK to the base ARR dungeons

[main ether]

I am so happy I don't have to start again, I spend so long playing that card game and chocobo racing and that stupid bamboo game to get my Fenrir mount! I am over the moon right now! 😄

[warm snow]

especially the end of the story(the 8 man dungeons with the unskippable cutscenes)

[remote lintel]

oh yeah they reworked ARR dungeons and the super long non skippable cutscene dungeons

so now theyre not so long

[shrewd mirage]

Hey, I bought werewolf set from the store and its Been a while since i played i don’t remember deleting it or anything I’ve looked in the glamour dresser and everything my retainers and i can’t seem to find any piece amy idea What happened? Is it possible to remove gear you bought off the store??

[remote lintel]

yes you can delete it

do /isearch werewolf

[warm snow]

/isearch werewolf

[main ether]

So can I jump back in on my trial account? I know for a little while I wasn't allowed to log on as they prioritised paying players which is totally understandable

[sleek needle]

Armory probably, it's old event gear

[warm snow]

yes you can

[boreal storm]

If you didn’t buy the game in the meantime, yeah

[main ether]

oh last question, I am so sorry for all the spam.

How do you level up your NPC party in the grand company place? They always failed quests I send them on and I think I needed to do soemthing with them to unlock the next grand company rank

[warm snow]

even failing the quests gives some exp

plus the training thing next to the desk

[fluid oracle]

how do i lvl up dps classes after 50? apparently replaying quests dont lvl you up?

[shrewd mirage]

Anyway i Can get it back? Without having to pay for a new one

[remote lintel]

you need to meet all stats for the flagged missions to rank up

[remote lintel]

beg to support

[warm snow]

if you tossed it no

[main ether]

ah right I think I understand!

"If queue times for dungeons aren't short enough, consider Palace of the Dead floors 51-60 for levels 1-60 and Heaven-on-High floors 21-30 for levels 61-70."
But queue times ARE too long tho..

[boreal storm]

Aren’t short = too long

[warm snow]

then "consider Palace of the Dead floors 51-60 for levels 1-60 and Heaven-on-High floors 21-30 for levels 61-70."

[hot eagle]

you could try your one time item recovery if you didn't use it yet

i mean they're both long >_<

[warm snow]

well pick your poison

[shrewd mirage]

🥲 so sad

[boreal storm]

Lesser of 2 evils, yadda yadda

[warm snow]

you're just gonna have to choose the lesser of two evils

[fluid oracle]

[narrow jay]

Also with the trust update to ARR dungeons, the queue time for DPS should now be a non-issue, yes?

[warm snow]

well for those dungeons

still not usable for rolos

[narrow jay]

Only gets weird in the 50+ range

[fluid oracle]

i dont understand Trust

[narrow jay]

take three NPCs, do dungeon

[boreal storm]

It’s not complicated

[narrow jay]

[fluid oracle]

how do i do trust dungeons?

[narrow jay]

QoL update to let people who experience ridiculously long queue times waiting for roulette to fill their party, or who just get nervous playing with other people in content they've never seen

[sand bluff]

Uh duty support

[narrow jay]

^

[warm snow]

there's not trusts from 50-70

and they're asking about 50+ iirc

[fluid oracle]

Where???

[warm snow]

your menu

[boreal storm]

The duty menu, as you’d assume
With a name called duty support

[narrow jay]

Not yet. They're coming, though, at various points in this expac's patches, so ... Please Look Forward To It ™️

[fluid oracle]

trust dungeons arent in the game yet? -oh

[warm snow]

they're in game for 2.0

how to reset my race?im already lvl 51 havent gotten the fantasia stuff yet

[warm snow]

[boreal storm]

Or beat 2.0, then use the fanta

[simple crown]

i have to beat the game?

[fluid oracle]

lol im sorry i dont understand;; i am reading but i dont see duty support..

[narrow jay]

2.0. ARR. A Realm Reborn. The first campaign.

[pure copper]

msq level determines when u get the fantasia. char level is irrelevant

[boreal storm]

The ! Circle in the corner

[fluid oracle]

-oh that menu, im on pc Thanks!

[sand bluff]

Complete castrum meridianum, praetorium and porta decumana,then you get the fantasia

[warm snow]

and that's the exact same duty menu on pc

[narrow jay]

It is a good habit to get into to poke around all your menus in any computer game

just so you can see what options you have available

[boreal storm]

Just a little “hey what’s that” is all it takes

[atomic jewel]

Hey I ordered 2 fantasia but I hit the limit for my mailbox, do I just not get my fantasia now?

[leaden ginkgo]

if you play rolut with party member lets say normal raid bonus tank my party is a tank and im a dps will i get the bonus if i played as other jobs ?

Play with people

do roulettes

play something different

[boreal storm]

Funner is subjective

[warm snow]

log off and wait for some rested exp to stockpile

we can't level your shit for you

[fluid oracle]

whyd you have to say it that way..

[fleet steppe]

Do squadrons and clear tam tara in 5 minutes

😎

[boreal storm]

Because it’s true?

[warm snow]

I mean we've shown you all the ways to level up

[narrow jay]

Fun is subjective. If you do not enjoy playing the game, do not play the game.

[warm snow]

what you find fun of that is kinda beyond us

[fluid oracle]

ill look into it, im not that familiar with dungeon names

[narrow jay]

Like, what do you think we're going to be able to suggest? Clear e12s min item level synced while doing the merengue over an active volcano?

[fleet steppe]

what level r u rn?

[warm snow]

doing a pastry?

[narrow jay]

The pastry is meringue. The dance is merengue.

[warm snow]

ahhhh

[fleet steppe]

lemon meringue pie 😋

[warm snow]

I have a lemon muffin waiting for me in the kitchen

[fluid oracle]

i enjoy playing the game, im just burnt out playing by myself

[fleet steppe]

...

then play with others...

[boreal storm]

Not like it’s any different of an experience

[warm snow]

then suck up having to deal with queues and use the duty finder

[fluid oracle]

51 in RDM, im lvling everything 😅

dang

[warm snow]

that was your first complaint

[fleet steppe]

at 51 just do PotD

[warm snow]

potd queues are too long, df queues are too long, playing alone is boring

[fluid oracle]

i never unlocked 50 POTD, i always fall asleep before 50

[warm snow]

we can't really help you beyond this

[boreal storm]

We already gave you the leveling guide, if you don’t wanna follow it, not our problem

[fluid oracle]

understood, im fine now then

[fleet steppe]

Welp. Not much else you can do. Maybe try to play rdm with your feet? idk.

How to buy the game

Click here for NA

Click here for EU

Click here for JP

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

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

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

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

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

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

Hey can you use macro in wolves den to share hotbar? It doesn't seem to work for me and thought maybe I'm doing something wrong

Hotbars in PVP are completely separate from PVE

So you need to set them all up again

[frank wigeon]

So you can use /hotbar copy gunbreaker 6 share 4

I get the command is unavailable

[obsidian patio]

They also use the /pvphotbar command, from what I’m seeing

Okay I think I have it unlocked but all my attacks aren't showing. Should I just look up a pvp guide?

[boreal storm]

PvP profile

[warm snow]

go to pvp profile

they redid every job for pvp

drag on your new skills and read the tooltips

its very very simple

[leaden ginkgo]

oh so that's why everything looks different in the pvp section

[boreal storm]

Yes PvP works completely different from pve

[sand heart]

i will give an example to my question, i own eso(the elder scrolls online) with all the expansion on PC (not steam) and i also own eso standered edition without expensions on steam, but when i play eso on steam the expensions are there, so is there such thing in ffxiv?, now my second question is,(in steam version) are subscribtion prices different from one country to another? like is it 13 USD in America and 6 USD in argentina? because the complate edition on square enix store is 60 USD but in the steam turkish store(which is where i am now) is 13 USD for the complate edition, those are my questions

[obsidian patio]

PVP also uses standardized stats and damage numbers

[leaden ginkgo]

Is Dragoon a good class for PVP?

[obsidian patio]

Absurdly right now

[boreal storm]

No, you have to own the expansions on the license you’re using

[obsidian patio]

Game+Expansion licenses are specific to the platform they’re for. Subscription price also depends on your currency but that’s mainly for steam.

!faq subpriceeu

[zinc orbit]

Subscription Prices

90 days/3 months = £25.17 / €35.97
180 days/6 months = £46.14 / €65.94

[sand heart]

are these prices worldwide even for steam users?

[boreal storm]

That’s the price in £ and €
So if you don’t use those, steam converts

[sand heart]

yeah but will it be less or the same?

[warm snow]

gonna depend

[boreal storm]

Depends on the conversion rate, obviously

[warm snow]

we don't know what steam does for every country

[obsidian patio]

SE fixed more of the extreme cases where sub would be a lot cheaper for some countries

[autumn anvil]

Steamdb says it's ARS$ 224,99 which comes down to 1/5th the price in Euro. So still some big differences assuming that's right.

[sand heart]

is that the game or the subscribtion price?

[autumn anvil]

Base game.

[sand heart]

nah i want to know about the sub prices

[autumn anvil]

🤷‍♂️

[leaden ginkgo]

Can someone point me to quick controller guide and HUD setup? I feel like quitting game before i start watching these youtube guides 😥

[obsidian patio]

For any besides USD/Euro/Pounds/Yen, you’d have to search for them online as SE doesn’t keep track of those directly

[feral oxide]

What is better to get from squadron missions? Gil or scrips? I need to choose between the two chemistries

[sand heart]

i need to find someone who is in turkey and ask him about the sub prices

[warm snow]

depends what you need more

[obsidian patio]

What’s the trigger for the chemistries?

[sand heart]

thanks a lot to all of you

[boreal storm]

They ain’t giving much either way, just letting ya know

[obsidian patio]

Gil is around 8k or so last time I did squadrons

[feral oxide]

I could use both, I don't know. I never used scrips that much so far

[obsidian patio]

Scrips was only like 300-400?

[feral oxide]

No scrips is like 100

But I think it's more in synergy missions

[boreal storm]

No? Synergy just makes the chemistry always be active

[verbal rune]

Btw any guide on how to Lvl crafters/gatherers fast?

[sand heart]

am i allowed to go to ffxiv discussion and just say"if you own ffxiv on steam and live in turkey i want to ask you something"

[boreal storm]

I’d honestly just search

[obsidian patio]

I’ll honestly think you’ll get a better audience through the subreddit

“Looking to buy the game and I want to know the price of subscription on steam for Turkey.” Or something like that.

[sand heart]

will try that thank you

[simple crown]

should i focus on 3 jobs at same time or just take one till lvl 90 first

[pure zenith]

its fairly easy to get 2 up through msq mind you but ye its up to you

[rough vault]

How do I access this part of the sea of clouds?

there's a current here but no connected landmass

[twilit arch]

none of the currents are in that area

[rough vault]

[twilit arch]

as that area requires flying to get to

[rough vault]

when I use my compass it points toward it, no matter where I go around it

[pure zenith]

sea of clouds aether current map

[rough vault]

nvm, just found it

I have no clue how I missed it

its literally on the way for the msq...

[narrow jay]

Quite a lot of them tend to be.

Also that map needs to be updated following the aether current reduction in non-current expac areas.

[brittle blaze]

Mmm some player have Eureka bonus on their armor but at +1 mine still hv nothing mmm is only at +2 or I miss something

[faint flare]

+2 only

[brittle blaze]

Aaaaaah ok got it then thx

There's no relocation system for apartments, but for houses yes you can relocate to any housing district provided you win the lottery for the plot ofc

[wispy copper]

for landerwaffel, to get the mounts from extremes, can I unsync it?

[pure zenith]

yup

[boreal storm]

You’ve been able to for all of them, SHB would be no different

[visual vine]

is there an area for trading or is that not allowed on this server?

[obsidian patio]

#retired-na-datacenters is basically it

[visual vine]

ok ty

[wispy copper]

and how rare are the mounts for it?

[modest igloo]

We spitball around a 20% drop rate

The real challenge is getting a good roll on top of that

[wispy copper]

you can't do them with one level90?

well I guess it's not a good goal right after shb

[obsidian patio]

Not enough DPS for any of the SHB ones

Also some mechanics would probably one-shot you for a couple of them

[calm wind]

What is the minimum ilevel for one to be safe if they are tackling the new Dragonsong Ultimate in a few days

600

You need bis

[calm wind]

damn thats high

It's ultimate

It's aimed at the high end players

[boreal storm]

The highest end

[faint flare]

As it's harder than savage, something to actually use Bis gear for

[calm wind]

I want to do it but my ilevel is only 586

should I keep doing HW with my white mage that just reached lvl 60 before finishing 3.0 or I should switch to something, lvl it up and continue 3.0?

Hey everyone, I have recently recieved multiple dms of people with sketchy link and I would like to report them but all I can do is report for RMT

[faint flare]

System > support desk

[atomic osprey]

So I took a few months break from the game after realizing I was playing too much and feeling burned out. Played some other games, engaged with some other hobbies, now I wanna start again! I'm considering making a new PC and starting fresh, taking my time to really enjoy the MSQ instead of rushing through it like the first time I played. Is restarting worth it or is it silly to put that much time into the same part of the game all over again?

[obsidian patio]

You can always use New Game + to go through the story with your current character

[heavy wadi]

^

just use ng+

[autumn anvil]

Kinda depends on where you left off, I'd say. But in general the later parts are considered much better than the early parts, and there's a lot to go through. You wouldn't want to burn yourself out on the same parts again. 🙂

[atomic osprey]

Yeah, I did leave off literally in the middle of the EW quests. I had been slamming the MSQ trying to get "caught up" in time to play Endwalker, but that left me violently burned out and I stopped days after it dropped. So I would have a LOT to go through again.

[remote lintel]

well then enjoy it

just note that ng+ doesnt give rewards

but if you really want that fresh start feeling then you could just make a new character on the same world and transfer all your stuff

[autumn anvil]

You could do a little bit of both. Roll a new character and slowly make your way through the story at your own pace, but also play a bit of max level to keep things interesting mechanically.

[warm snow]

Contents not going anywhere, director producer hates fomo, don't feel the need to rjsh

[atomic osprey]

yes, definitely. at this point i understand how the devs approach the game and know better than to rush now lol.

[native inlet]

If I buy the game again (let's say on Steam), but I'm already subbed on the PS4/PS5, would the 30 days included with the steam version add to my current subscription?

[faint flare]

Yes

[remote lintel]

yes

[native inlet]

Oh sweet

[scarlet hinge]

Is there a way to get another set of the dk level 60 artifact armor?

[faint flare]

Centurio seals in the forgotten knight

The new pvp gear is also the lvl 60 af gear

[verbal rune]

but with better textures/quality

[tender zodiac]

what is the endgame like?

[remote lintel]

raiding, glamour, housing, gposing, crafting

[leaden ginkgo]

is there a way to get thancreds shadowbringer set? i know i can get the lvl 80 job gear but i want the thancred color

[obsidian patio]

Not sure if you can dye it to look like his, but you can get the dyeable versions of the level 80 job gear from Memora Misera EX

[heavy wadi]

you'd need to do memoria misera extreme to dye your job armor

[leaden ginkgo]

ohhh thats good to hear

[obsidian patio]

The extreme can be unlocked after completing the first part of the Shadowbringers relic

[regal basin]

I dont know what i accidently activated... I cant run... Just walk 🙈 playing on playstation. 🐌 How do i activated running again? 🤔

If you’re using a USB keyboard, try pressing the / on the numpad

Might also be holding down B/O and then moving the left stick

[lilac flume]

do people sitll do bozja content? i was thinking of doing one of the shb relics but i feel like it would be way harder now since i imagine way fewer people do it, if any

[narrow jay]

It's a bit harder to fill things like CLL/Dalriada, somewhat harder to fill DR, but the zones are still decently active.

[warped nest]

How long did the previous ultimates took to get world first?

[obsidian patio]

Coil took like 2-3 weeks, I think?

Lemme double check

UCOB came out October 24th, cleared on November 7th?

UWU came out on June 5th, cleared June 10th.

And TEA came out November 12th and cleared on the 19th

[warped nest]

Thanks!

[obsidian patio]

So yeah, I definitely expect a week or so

UWU was likely fastest due to their hidden mechanic, being awakening the primals, being in the first part of the fight and found fairly fast

And Coil was longest due to being the first ultimate

[warped nest]

Coil doesn't really have any special mechanics, isn't it?

I just remembered it being long as heck

[obsidian patio]

Placement of the neurolinks mattered in the later phases

But besides that, no

[warped nest]

Cool, thank you

Now I know when should I start snooping for World first clear

[nimble holly]

will you need ot be ilvl 600 to get into DSR?

im looking at TEA for a min ilvl requirement and it doesnt say any on the DF page

[modest igloo]

No, but you’ll need it to survive raidwides and mechanics

[nimble holly]

is it like 5 under? or 10? trying to figure out if a non bis person can piggyback on my static lol

[regal pawn]

Play pvp

The new PvP set for gnb is just the lvl 80 job gear

And it's easy to get

[modest igloo]

Judging from tea, you’ll need ilvl 600 to live. Ilvl 599 you’ll prolly die

[summer idol]

So I bought the complete edition through square enix, uninstalled and reinstalled my client plugged in my code etc. It keeps showing i'm still a free trial user?

Why is that?

[pure copper]

did u apply hte code

[summer idol]

Yes.

Literally applied it yesterday.

[pure copper]

where are u seeing that it's telling u trial?

[summer idol]

Whenever I log in it shows me as a free trial user limiting me doing anything

On my client

In the game I can't add my friends

Due to being a free trial user

[strange coral]

Are you sure you applied the code to the same trial account and not a new account?

[summer idol]

I'm positive

I log into my same service account

I believe I do

[umbral dune]

Are you use the right launcher?

[summer idol]

What do you mean the right launcher I use the one provided by square enix from my order

[umbral dune]

Free trial and paid are different

[heavy wadi]

you're either using the wrong launcher or logged in to a new account.

!faq download

I logged into the wrong user id

damn shame

Thank you

lmao, np

[wheat plume]

what's the meaning of sausage cut in pf?

[green grail]

https://images-ext-2.discordapp.net/external/6U2l4-8_1nmjrDaUewYAbdgUw87HPrDd3iFnsmuwxQY/https/media.discordapp.net/attachments/931333591307288586/937798781049655306/sausage_cut.png

[outer mural]

to be more clear, Sausage Cut is the alternate name for "uptime limit cut"

using that diagram you basically psoition relative to the boss based on where it lands

[rocky panther]

when do levequest allowances recharge?

[outer mural]

there's no pre-set markers like the standard pug strat so you have to brain on boss relativity

they recharge every 12 hours per 3 charges, starting at daily reset iirc

[rocky panther]

ooooh

thanks

no wonder I had 90 allowances haha, never did them until this week

[twilit arch]

you can see when you'll get your next leve allowance in the timers menu

[full surge]

Is there any benefit aside from gaining rank in ranked pvp?

[outer mural]

there are cosmetic rewards based on reaching bronze, crystal and top 100 in ranked pvp

but if you do not care enough to grind it out, or want the prestige in any way, then no

[obsidian patio]

Each rank has their own cosmetics, and you get an increasing amount of crystal trophies

[outer mural]

oh there's some for each one below crystal?

[pure copper]

yeah

[outer mural]

i see

[pure copper]

each rank has its own border for adventurer plates

[full surge]

Is there anywhere in game to see them?

[outer mural]

i believe you can just see them in your adventurer plate menu

they'll be locked but there's a preview feature

[full surge]

I mean the cosmetics

Or is that not armor

[outer mural]

the cosmetics are the adventurer plate stuff yeah

sorry for being vague

[full surge]

Is the point reward only for win streaks or does it average as better than casual overall?

[stone sky]

is it possible to blacklist someone without being able to target them or them having said something in chat

[boreal storm]

You can see if player search allows it

[stone sky]

it doesn't

[patent citrus]

you can blacklist through contact afaik

but you have to jump to their world first

[full surge]

I remember getting fc invites from one dude every day and having to track them down in order to blacklist them

[patent citrus]

contact will list all the players you've encountered in an instance

[stone sky]

o

good to know

so it does, thanks

[rocky panther]

I assume levequests are the best way to get from 80-90 weaver?

[jade quartz]

Yep, leves and collectibles

[outer mural]

levequests are consistently good for their level range, 80 - 90 especially due to lack of ishgard resto now

[jade quartz]

Leves are faster but you only have so many allowances

[heavy wadi]

here, have this magical sheet. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13OAM-DfpTYsJn5bUFG_io7qFhcWuYYiGhqMgMGsQERw/edit#gid=0

also includes teamcraft lists you can copy for each of the things so you know what to gather

[rocky panther]

thanks!!

I sadly spent most of my leve allowances getting botanist and miner to 90 last 3 days

so now I wait

[jade quartz]

Can do collectibles in the meantime

[rocky panther]

oh yeeee, thanks!

[heavy wadi]

or the studium

[jade quartz]

Yeah do your Studium quests

[heavy wadi]

don't neglect grand company deliveries, either

[rocky panther]

what's studium

[jade quartz]

They’re a big exp chunk

[heavy wadi]

it's like the crystalline mean quests

[jade quartz]

Like facet quests for Endwalker

[rocky panther]

do they share the same cd as custom deliveries or nah?

[jade quartz]

No CD, they’re a one off

[heavy wadi]

^

[jade quartz]

They’re like role quests for crafters

[rocky panther]

oh nice, thanks! I keep learning more and more about the game haha

[jade quartz]

And have a delivery component to progress

No there’s no CD

You do them once for each questline

[heavy wadi]

ah yeah, you're right, was conflating things

[jade quartz]

They’re shared between multiple crafters like role quests

[pallid bluff]

if you press skip cutscene does it skip every cutscene in sequence or does it only skip one cutscene

[jade quartz]

E.g. the cooking faculty quests are shared by alc and cul

[jade quartz]

One

[boreal storm]

The current cutscene is skipped

[pallid bluff]

okay thanks

[rocky panther]

ye, just found the wiki

thanks a bunch

[pallid bluff]

to clarify, this is about the moments when several cutscenes one after another, like at the end of ARR

[obsidian patio]

Yep

So for things like credits, you can skip them and not lose out on the post-credits cutscene

[grim plover]

unrelated to in game but how do you guys avoid burnout?

[pallid bluff]

yoship responded to this question himself actually https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/517ql0/a_player_asks_on_how_to_maintain_motivation_and/

[boreal storm]

Pace yourself first of all, the game ain’t going anywhere

[ripe hound]

Does anyone know, if you play using a Japanese client, do you still need a English character only name?

Like, on JP DCs, does everybody just run around with English names?

Or are kanji and kana characters allowed?

[jade quartz]

No, all Roman letters

Kanji and kana aren’t allowed

[ripe hound]

I see, a bit surprising

Like, all the “English” sounding names in game are Katakana in Japanese client right…?

And only the player suddenly appears in Roman letters?

[jade quartz]

For the most part yeah

[ripe hound]

Or do they basically just almost never refer to the WoL by name?

[jade quartz]

No they do

[ripe hound]

Hun

Weird

Always feels weird when your name and other character’s names are in different format

[fluid gulch]

How often can the hunt train targets be killed to get nuts?

[obsidian patio]

A ranks spawn every 2-4 hours or so

[fluid gulch]

And you can do it every time? No daily, or weekly lockout/reset?

[obsidian patio]

Correct 👍

[fluid gulch]

Damn! That's awesome.

[obsidian patio]

The only limit to hunt trains is making sure to spend your nuts before you hit the max storage

[fluid gulch]

For sure

I saw that new mount. And was like "I need to give Hunts a try."

[limber stream]

Duty Support EXP seems a little inconsistent for me. Getting like 40-50% of a level from dungeons like mt. gulg, but nothing from Amaurot

Is that intentional?

[umbral dune]

amaurot is not leveling, it was lvl 80 which at its time, yield no exp

[limber stream]

alright, so I should avoid those when duty-supporting?

[umbral dune]

79 then 81

[jovial quarry]

Yeah anything levels 50, 60, 70 or 80 specifically give crap exp.

[limber stream]

gotcha, thank you!!

[atomic jewel]

man should I main reaper or drg, they're both such fun jobs

[regal pawn]

Do both

[atomic jewel]

tru, but everyone and their mother mains reaper

[boreal storm]

Who cares

It’s your main

[atomic jewel]

tru, but I wanna bring variety to a party

[obsidian patio]

They’re both pretty common jobs from my experience

[atomic jewel]

tru, though I haven't seen a machinist in forever

[devout crystal]

Job specific LB is when There are 3 LB bars right?

[boreal storm]

LB3 yes

[pure zenith]

sorta its a job specific animation

but its basically the same lb

[devout crystal]

Dungeon has only 1 LB bar and final boss has 2 only.

[boreal storm]

That’s normal

[devout crystal]

3 bars in trial??

[pure zenith]

trials/raids/alliance raids have 3

[umbral dune]

full party

4-man is not full so 2 bars, 8-man is full

[devout crystal]

I see.

Is there unspoken rule of who use the LB?

[pure zenith]

but yeah lb 3 is different per role not per class, but the animation is per class
as for when to use, unless the tank has a specific mechanic to use it for it usually goes to the melee dps

[obsidian patio]

Melee dps > ranged/caster 90% of the time

[umbral dune]

healer is basically never touching it unless there is 3 bars

[boreal storm]

Depends on the boss mechanic also

Sometimes you require tank lb3

[main yoke]

can I farm the egg coins for the easter event?

[devout crystal]

Thx

[obsidian patio]

Yes just do the fate again

[narrow jay]

Ranged/Magic also do far more damage in an AoE situation simply because of additional targets adding up

so useful at the end of dungeons

[devout crystal]

I see

[main yoke]

ty!

[hollow inlet]

Is there a specific drop rate for shell leather on the gliderskin map?

[narrow jay]

Probably. But like all rates, it's held server side, so it cannot be known. And there's no aggregate data across various map runs to draw from, so it cannot easily be empirically determined.

[hollow inlet]

I barely understood that last sentence

[umbral dune]

what we know is statistically result (actual drop/total attempts), not the real % that SE might never show

[hollow inlet]

SE?

[mossy current]

square enix

[hollow inlet]

Ohhh

[indigo mural]

nvm I found it lol

[whole leaf]

sorry how can i equip low level things as glamour

i am too noob for this

i have level 1 skin received

how can i cast on higher

[umbral dune]

cast glamour on the target item (those appearance gonna be overrode), choose the lower or equal lvl item

and you need a glamour prism

[narrow jay]

You can also store items you want to use for glamour in your Glamour Dresser (also for the cost of a Prism), and then set up plates to use, and reusing those plates will cost you nothing

so it's much more cost-efficient in the long run.

[tulip chasm]

not sure if i've asked this question before, but like, should this be turned on or off for a performance difference

[umbral dune]

on for performance gain

[tulip chasm]

mkay

[umbral dune]

i think they said it on by default for dx9

[narrow jay]

It limits the amount of things your graphics system is trying to handle at once, yeah.

[leaden ginkgo]

why the HECK is my ARR sightseeing log only showing 20 spots now

Aren't there 80 ARR spots???

[raven sage]

You have to do the first 20 to get the rest of arr

[leaden ginkgo]

❓ was it always this way or did they just implement this for no apparant reason

[raven sage]

Afaik it was always

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh okay, well that makes me feel less weird about it

[frank wigeon]

hey may i ask what is the macro for Dark Knight? is it DarkKnight?

Gunbreaker works but not Dark Knight hm

[umbral dune]

drk

[earnest sable]

Hey, I'm new to the game. Currently doing a quest which is just "Speak with Galfrid at the bannock" ive exhausted his dialog, but for some reason I cant press the "complete" button, why is that?

[frank wigeon]

cheers!

[jade quartz]

select a reward from the options given

[earnest sable]

aah! okay, thanks

[devout crystal]

Deep dungeons cannot be accessed remotely right? (Duty finder)

[jade quartz]

no, gotta queue at the npc in person

[devout crystal]

How come I get a match when I am the only one waiting in front of the NPC??

[umbral dune]

can be solo run

[jovial quarry]

Matching for PotD and HoH is cross server like all other kinds of matching.

[devout crystal]

Oh! I see. Lol. Thx

I was wondering if there is a way to remotely que for the deep dungeons. lol

[jovial quarry]

Has to be in South Shroud or Ruby Sea, respectively. Can't queue for PotD or HoH outside of their respective zones.

[umbral dune]

it's not in the duty finder so no

[neon tundra]

Question about housing. Did they already run the 2nd lotto? Or is it currently halted and still the same 1st result period?

[boreal storm]

#lodestone-news-na

[jovial quarry]

Currently halted while they investigate the issue behind what happened

[umbral dune]

with the new post, afraid at least 2 more weeks

[neon tundra]

Ok phew! I thought I missed it! Haven't been on in a few days haha. Thank you!!

[tiny crag]

I got the message that I got the "A Tankless Job II (Dark Knight)" achievement, but when I went in to check, it's telling me incomplete despite being 100/100. Something I'm missing?

[outer mural]

relog or do another activity

that is certainl a bug

[gilded forge]

When does the "eat egg" event end?

[boreal storm]

Also the ff11 event starts the 28th so like, process of elimination

[tiny crag]

alrighty ill relog and check. hopefully its a temp bug

[deep oak]

What is the best way to find hunt groups?

[tiny crag]

that was it! achievements are all there, thanks so much Jim!

[ruby plover]

does anyone know how to stop this from happening?

(the icon on the left)

Everytime i do pvp with a different job, the instant portrait goes back to default due to this error

[pure zenith]

working as intended

you have to reset the instant portrait whenever you switch jobs

[ruby plover]

ahhh ok

[slow isle]

How do you get the purple buckler for m'naago? I caught a few but not the collectability ones.

[halcyon shard]

Sound in-game keeps randomly shut off then coming back. any fix?

[boreal storm]

Turn on the collect buff

Not you drak

[leaden ginkgo]

I think I noticed a glitch. Is there a way to report it?

[brave ivy]

Ah so I’m not the only one who gets it

[narrow jay]

in the Support Menu yeah

[jade quartz]

it's a problem that's been floating around awhile. Other than relaunching game, there is actually a plugin floating around for this which allows you to refresh the game audio device whenever this happens to fix it

[slow isle]

How do I remove all the ugly red slashes from pvp, of skills that don't exist any more? You can only slot do many

[narrow jay]

Click the little Lock icon over to one side of the hotbars

drag them off the bar

they will vanish into thin air

[halcyon shard]

Do u have link to said plugin?

[distant fjord]

Hey for some reason the Radiant Patrol quest for Thavnair flight isn't there for me, any help?

[jade quartz]

what's your MSQ progress?

[oak quarry]

bruh

platinum 2 and silver 1 in the same team

[distant fjord]

Beat it all the way through the patch

[jade quartz]

Well yeah. You can match up to two tiers apart

a tier isn't that big a gap yknow

[oak quarry]

pain

we literally pushed all the way back and still lost :(((

[oak quarry]

well i've just never seen that big of a gap in ranks before lol

[crystal otter]

I just finished the 'Death Unto Dawn' Quest, so now if I relog I will no longer be a sprout, yes?

[boreal storm]

If you have the appropriate play time, it’d already be gone

[whole ember]

is there anyone here knowledgeable enough with stats that would be able to tell me if the Radiant Gunblade would be better than my current melded one? Obv ive got a lot of sks in the penta, but if i were to replace that with crit/dh/det, would it be a better choice than Radiant + Materia?

[crystal otter]

Oh nevermind, as soon as I teleported I lost it

[whole ember]

I know phys dmg is pretty big deal, but the secondary stats have always confused me

[crystal otter]

Was still there while I was in the Rising Stones

[little swift]

generally speaking ilvl > substats

[remote lintel]

yes radiant is better

+2 weapon damage >>>> everything else

[little swift]

because ilvl is a direct increase to your weapon damage and mainstats

which are more impactful than substats the wider the ilvl gap

substats can overcome that gap but only in really niche situations where you would take a lower ilvl item instead of a higher ilvl one

[remote lintel]

you also only melded sks which is like

eh

[boreal storm]

!faq statmeme

[zinc orbit]

What are the real stat weights?

[boreal storm]

Just for a visual

[whole ember]

Yeah and I can hit the SKS tier i want with food too so I don't need those materia I have in there really

Appreciate it guys, just trying to get my feet wet into endgame stuff and its a doozy

[little swift]

also pentamelding isn't really worth it past like w1 of the tier

its too much of an expensive investment

[remote lintel]

weapon damage beats everything else

[whole ember]

Yeah I was a dummy and did full pentameld in 6.0

felt cool, wallet hated it

but I also didn't have a group to do any of the savages or any way to learn em really

[remote lintel]

unless youre drk and your bis is penta classical ring

[whole ember]

oof

[remote lintel]

you can pf savage

[whole ember]

I've seen them but I'm pretty big dumb and esp as tank I don't wanna ruin stuff. Didn't have tankxiety the entire game til now

[remote lintel]

tank is easy

[plucky rain]

what does AM mean? like, "bring AM"

[little swift]

AM is automarkers

[plucky rain]

gotcha

[little swift]

its specifically in reference to UWU Titan phase for the gaols

[remote lintel]

the only real mechs for tank in p1s are the swap and the flex if youre ot

[little swift]

automarkers is an ACT trigger that will place markers on designated player's heads to assign them gaol positions to properly bait the explosions to awaken

it also is used in suppression

[plucky rain]

where do i find AMs?

[little swift]

to show which eruption baiter has the gaol

not everyone needs to have AM

only 1 person in the party needs them

[plucky rain]

ah ok ic

[little swift]

too many AM active messes it up

[whole ember]

Also as a follow up, does this apply to defense on armor as well?

[little swift]

ilvl is a direct increase to mainstats/vitality/defense

[whole ember]

I have unaugmented Radiant Armor vs. Pentamelded 580, with a +15 on both defenses

[little swift]

those are usually the biggest changes to your survivability and output

[remote lintel]

radiant has more ilvl than classical

[little swift]

radiant armor can be augmented too

[whole ember]

Yeah, I just can't augment it at the moment, did my raid and dont have enough nuts for the mat atm

so for the time being im just seeing if what I have is an upgrade

actual pieces in question

[little swift]

depending on the tank you're playing the helmet is actually bis

[whole ember]

I'm on a GNB, and would like the SKS, but I think it might be overkill? I believe it is actually bis once augmented, but im not sure if the normal one is better than what I have basically

[little swift]

well

for gnb you can run a lot of GCD tiers, but at slower ones you might have trouble getting all 9 gcds under no mercy if your ping is bad

so typically people go a bit faster just to have alignments be ok

[whole ember]

Yeah, I've been trying to learn properly at 2.41since that seems to be pretty popular, and this is the first class I'm trying to learn to play properly

[little swift]

https://etro.gg/gearset/b0dce4e7-d1e3-4267-bb5b-c252ed302884
this is the 2.41

and it uses the helm

[whole ember]

Right, I knew I'd be swapping once I got the upgrade mats. I just...happen to have bought a bunch of the radiant gear before I had any idea what I was doing (in case you couldnt tell from the pentameld) and didn't know if I should go ahead and sub in the 590 stuff I already have that would become bis once upgraded until I can upgrade, or just keep rolling with my pentas. I feel like I'm splitting hairs tbh, but I just wanna squeeze out every bit of efficiency I can

[remote lintel]

for stuff that isnt chest or legs it shouldnt make that much difference

[little swift]

tldr for people who don't do savage: don't bother pentamelding and just get all the tome pieces upgraded

because given that you can't fine tune substat spread since you won't have access to the other option for i600

you just cap out ilvl to the best of your ability and live with it

[whole ember]

See I wish I'd had someone say that to me before I fully pentamelded lmao

[little swift]

weird gcds aren't unplayable, the reason there are recommended gcd tiers are in relation to the specific savage tier

so if you don't have any inclination to even try it, just play a comfy gcd or whatever

[remote lintel]

substats only come into play once youre comparing max ilvl to max ilvl really

except in some freak cases

[whole ember]

This is very helpful

And I am going to be doing savages soon, finally have a group I can vibe with, thus the desire to give em the best I possibly can

[remote lintel]

you should generally be worrying about ilvl before you worry about substats

since substats give less of an advantage than ilvl does

unless the balance says otherwise

[whole ember]

Bet, thats how I treated the game up til the end of EW, and then I found it hard to find the info I was looking for on stats, so took some advice and penta'd and here I am

lmfao

[obsidian patio]

Higher ilvl not being better usually only happens on accessories

[whole ember]

That was part of my problem, at the time I couldn't find any real info on the balance that wasn't about raid gear, and I couldn't get questions answer

[obsidian patio]

I think 5.4 BIS for healers used the crafted ring instead of the tomestone ring

[remote lintel]

because substats only matter in raids

if youre not doing savage then its whatever

[whole ember]

I can kind of understand that since accessories don't really have mainstats either

[little swift]

even if you're doing savage, the extra ilvl pads your hp

[little swift]

they do

[whole ember]

ohhhh you mean like str/vit etc.

Told ya I was no brain

[little swift]

str/dex/mind/int

those are mainstat

vitality is in everything too

[whole ember]

Yeah yeah idk why I had a stroke and was like mainstat = damage or defense

[little swift]

substats would be crit/dhit/det/ten/pie/sks/sps

mainstats directly contribute to your damage

[remote lintel]

but if youre planning to raid and go for bis then just get whatever the balance tells you to

[whole ember]

Might just be me not being used to using it but I couldn't really find what gear I should be using to tackle PS's to get the bis stuff

But thats a me problem and y'all have already been very helpful

[little swift]

the baseline to do savage at this point is whatever you can get your hands on

[remote lintel]

use whatever you can and buy whatever radiant is bis

[little swift]

that is above min ilvl to enter the fight

anything more gives you a bit more padding to survive mechanics and squeeze a little more damage out to make checks more lenient

[whole ember]

Yeah that is essentially what I'm looking for, we're all very new to the endgame content so I just wanna be set up to survive things longer so we have more of a chance to learn

[remote lintel]

then more ilvl = more defense and dmg

you should also be using food

[little swift]

as a tank you already have a lot of leeway the other jobs don't

but never not food

potting is for pushing clears so you don't have to pot all the time

but food isn't optional

[tough gulch]

I just did Castrum Fluminis as a bard. I havent played bard in a while but i couldnt use pitch perfect. once the stack reached 3 it would flicker back and forth from wanders minuet and pitch perfect and give errors. Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong?

[whole ember]

Yeah I've been using food and trying to learn openers/rotations etc. cause I never really had anyone explain that that was even a thing to me until recently

[remote lintel]

was there another brd

[tough gulch]

I think so

[remote lintel]

yeah

bug

[little swift]

yes there's currently a known bug with the song

[tough gulch]

woah how weird

[little swift]

and with other bards in the party

[remote lintel]

doing your opener and rotation correct is like the key thing to passing dmg checks

because the way balance openers and rotations are made will have everyone buffing at the same time

which creates stuff like 2 min buff windows

[whole ember]

Yeahhhh our group is all little babies and i KNOW we aren't doing that correctly

[remote lintel]

[whole ember]

I think I'mma bury my head in some reading and get that down and try and spread the gospel

[remote lintel]

if your static cant do their opener right then youre not passing the dmg check

[little swift]

not really

p1s has a low enough check that you could do a lot wrong and still clear

[remote lintel]

unless theyre roided up with gear

[little swift]

especially with gear at this point

[cursive geyser]

My character seems to have been reset?
It has the same appearance and name but the stats and inventory and story and everything is from scratch

[little swift]

i would say at this point come back with maybe some fflogs or some stuff when you want more help nothing

[remote lintel]

reposting your question isnt going to make people more likely to answer it

[whole ember]

Yeah we're super new to everything, just a bunch of friends that wanted to do endgame, we're working on Endsinger right now and got it to 9% but we've seen a lot of room for improvement and I'm just trying to find where my problems are

[little swift]

try submitting a support ticket to SE

[whole ember]

Will do, I appreciate y'all giving me the time you did

[remote lintel]

use xivanlysis with your fflogs

[cursive geyser]

Is there any possible simple solutions or errors that explain this?

[little swift]

unsure maybe try asking #952326072542847016

have you reinstalled the game?

[cursive geyser]

Yes

I just renewed my subscription

So I haven't played in a while

[little swift]

everything in mogstation looks fine?

[cursive geyser]

yes

and my character looks the same in selection

Its just when I load in that everything is like a brand new character

[little swift]

hmmm

have you tried another device

[cursive geyser]

Omfg

I just figured it out I'm stupid

For some reason my character seems to have been duplicated on another world

I was on the wrong world since it automatically loaded me into Jenova instead

[sage turret]

whats the best way to get gathering materia for melding other than buying it on market?

[hollow inlet]

Doing gatherer quests

[sage turret]

Studium?

[hollow inlet]

Eh?

[obsidian patio]

Using the baseline 90 crafted gathering and doing rotations of the level 90 unspoiled nodes is decent for spiritbonding

You can also combine that with gathering rarefied items to turn in for scrips

[sage turret]

Thanks, Ill give it a try

[obsidian patio]

The main thing in terms of spiritbonding is that it only cares about successful gathering attempts, not number of items per gather or if you trigger the boon

So you want to nearly empty out a node and then use the 300 GP skill that adds another gather attempt to the node with a 50% chance of letting you use a skill that adds another attempt

Ageless Words/Solid Reason and Wise to the World being the actions in question

[spice pecan]

do you level alt jobs in palace all the way to max level or is it better to stop at some point ?

[sleek needle]

60

HoH > 70, and then bozja

[scarlet harbor]

im good to skip arr credits right?

[solemn jewel]

Sure

[jade quartz]

yes and definitely do so because they're hours long lol

if there's a post-credits cutscene it won't skip that

[scarlet harbor]

lmao. ill do that

[stable grail]

Regarding housing were u able to bid on 1 house thats from ward say, #19 and other house thats in ward #21?
Or did they restrict it to 1 bid per character in the lottery system?

[jade quartz]

1 bid per char

can't cancel a bid after making it either

so be sure of your choice

[stable grail]

Will square do smth about ppl owning multiple houses or wards from old housing system then?

[jade quartz]

no, grandfathered in

but they prevented people from being able to buy multiple houses per server years ago

you can't buy a house on a server that your alt character owns a house on.

[stable grail]

Tbh it boggles my mind why there are so many fc wards vs private. There are mostly empty

[jade quartz]

on OCE every ward is still empty

there aren't enough FCs on each server to actually buy all the plots I don't think

[stable grail]

Yeah. They should adjust it

[rough vault]

can I acquire this drip?

[jade quartz]

yeah it's on the cash shop

[rough vault]

breh

10 bucks

rip

[sleek needle]

1 bid per account even unless I'm mistaken

[sharp narwhal]

hi can i ask about triple triad tournament rewards

i participated in the durai memorial and got 1600 points but i didnt get any rewards when the tournament ended

[umbral dune]

talk with the girl to check your rank and receive rewards

[sharp narwhal]

which npc tournament record keeper?

i already did im not in top 20

is being in the top 20 needed to get my 3 platinum packs

[umbral dune]

read what she says, I think you would still get some mgp even without the top 20 posistion

[sharp narwhal]

i did

but i didnt get anything

is it cos it glitch cos i was in a match when the tournament ended

[rough vault]

how do I access the wonderous tale journal?

[sleek needle]

Key items

[rough vault]

thanks

so if I can only do 9 things, would the best option be this?🤔

but then, how do I get 3 lines?

[obsidian patio]

Stickers are rng

!faq wondroustails

[zinc orbit]

Wondrous Tails

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!

[obsidian patio]

All 24 possible 3-line layouts

[rough vault]

oh, I thought what I did = the line I get

ok I get it now

[humble radish]

Hello, can i do pvp with base game?
My job is already 90

[sleek needle]

If you're at 90 you own endwalker??

And yes, just free trials can't do pvp

[humble radish]

On ps4 yes
On pc nope
Since my ps4 crashed

Oh thanks

[sleek needle]

[sharp narwhal]

should i maybe ask a gm

to fix the problem

the thing is at 15 minutes left of the tournament they didnt boot me out to tabulate scores hrrmm

[umbral dune]

hmm, I dont check when you asked, the tournament is still ongoing, you receive rewards when it ends

[sharp narwhal]

it ended as i was in match

thats the problem

thats the problem

i joined it at 30 minutes b4 it ended played then the tournament ended

[umbral dune]

as for the platinum cards, the threshold is like 700/1100/1600 for 1/2/3 cards, the pack (gold, silver,...) require top 10

[sharp narwhal]

got 1600 points

or it didnt count cos i was still playing past the final 15 minutes Hrrmm?

[umbral dune]

no, seem like a bug now, might need to contact gm

why on your server it ended and mine still ongoing even when we both japan

[sharp narwhal]

it says Durai memorial matches until 4.00pm

gmt+8

its 4.52pm already

and when i try to participate in battle hall it says tournament over

[umbral dune]

day?

battlehall has a time limit per week

[sharp narwhal]

26/4/22

[broken summit]

How does one move the resistance rank window in bozja?

[sharp narwhal]

wait

[broken summit]

Oh wait figured it out, it's finicky

[sharp narwhal]

does it mean the reward is given at end of the week ?

ah ic

[severe dagger]

hello, I was looking at this in the ffxiv shop and I was wondering if the outfit on the right is something we get with the purchase or if it is just an example? I ask this because I see another outfit showcase as the 2nd iamge
if not, I was wondering how to get the wtich hat outfit in the 1st image on the right

[sharp narwhal]

ah im dumb i thought it ended today

i just ended up wasting my 20 match quota today

[umbral dune]

no, you only have 20 matches total for the tournament

it is not per day or anything

hence the battlehall has a time limit of 240m per week

[sharp narwhal]

yea i finished 20 matches rip

so i have to wait till 26th when the points are finalized to claim my reward then

[umbral dune]

if you only play with npc and win all, maximum is 1780 so yours 1600 probably out of top 20

[sharp narwhal]

yeah

i 1602 points

i lost 2 player matches too

[umbral dune]

when i was still free trial, i dream of pvp matches, until i actually do so, lost and draw force me back to npc

not that you can guarantee a win but it is much more reliable

[nova umbra]

can I put in a glam into a glamour plate, and then remove it from the dresser and it'll still work?

[patent citrus]

retainer and player share the same hairstyle choice yeah?

so if I buy mogstation item hair, I unlocked it and will be able to use it on my retainer

excluding race ofc

[hot eagle]

the witch like gear is the lvl60 job exclusive which you can get again for centurio seals if you used the lvl skip or discarded it

https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Welkin_Set

[severe dagger]

oh, so it's something I can get without having to get the tales of adventure?

[patent citrus]

yeah

[umbral dune]

i just try it, still work as long as you dont edit the plate, it will be applied

[hot eagle]

yeah for doin the lvl60 AST jobquest

[severe dagger]

thank you!!!!

[fiery sail]

Is there any use on the Allagan Tomestone of Aphorism (blue) besides at Radz at han thing?

[patent citrus]

craft mats

and upgrade crafted dow/dom gears

moonward gear for glamour

[rugged thicket]

dude said besides at radz

not IN radz

[patent citrus]

oh sorry, yeah no use of it outside that

[fiery sail]

Got it, thank you. xD

[solar moat]

Hi, was wondering if it is known how often the Kupo of Fortune prizes change?

[hot eagle]

they probably don't change anymore since the restoration is done

[solar moat]

Ehhh? So I have no chance to get the Hraesvelgr attire?

Bc my 1st prize rn is some triceratops minion

[patent citrus]

I thought it's still available?

price is randomised

sometimes you get hraesvelgr/casual attire

[solar moat]

I was wondering how often they switch out though, since there are multiple items for each prize slot

[patent citrus]

you need to keep farming then yeah

if you don't want to buy from hraesvlg from marketboarfd

[hot eagle]

you can also check your world's marketboard could be rly cheap on it

[solar moat]

I'm a free trial so I won't be doing that anyway lol

[patent citrus]

ah yeah, afaik it's not that expensive

[hot eagle]

it's like 6k on omega

[patent citrus]

if you level your doh to 80, you probably got one for free, lol

or probably more

[solar moat]

I can't access the marketboard

[hot eagle]

oh then I hope you get it soon

[patent citrus]

yeah, then keep doing recipe there

[solar moat]

Okay but like... I'm pretty sure the prizes rotate since there's only one active prize at a time

I was wondering how often they rotate

[hot eagle]

changes with each new scratch card

its fully rng what your card has as price

[solar moat]

Oh, okay that's good to know

I thought they were on a timer. I'll just scratch my cards now

Thanks

[patent citrus]

ah sorry, wasn't clear earlier

[oak lily]

if I'm on the first book, how long should the book step take me?

[patent citrus]

yeah it's randomised per card

so you just keep going

zodiac? I reckon each book could take 30 mins to 2 hours

I would just do it once a day, unless you are hardcore and do more than 1 book a day

but ofc, the later book, it gets easier cause you already figured out how to do them efficiently

[solar moat]

If you have bad luck with fate spawns, it might take you a while.

Everything else can be done pretty quickly

[novel star]

is there any difference between the steam launcher and the website launcher?

[solemn jewel]

not really

steam allows payment thru steam wallet

[novel star]

steam launcher says: Transfer to regular service has not been completed.
Please proceed to the FINAL FANTASY XIV: Mog Station.

and i dont know what to with that

[nova umbra]

to get a relic replica, do I have to do the next step?

[hot eagle]

most of the time yes, arr even needs you to be done with the full relic

[eternal wedge]

where find Rowena Commissioner on ul'dah plz ?

[obsidian patio]

Near the big aetheryte, if you mean the poetics vendor

[eternal wedge]

i want to buy armor of class

to finish my forge aggressor set

[obsidian patio]

The crafting job gear set?

[eternal wedge]

its in french but i try to get this : https://fr.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/shop/69c3f2a1f57/?item=dfb0609b6de&type=sundry_splendors

[obsidian patio]

the blue bag icon near the big aetheryte

[warm snow]

Npc doesn't spawn til you kill lahablahblah

[eternal wedge]

i don't see it , but what is lahablahblah ?

[solemn jewel]

lahabrea

so, finishing porta decumana

[umbral dune]

and solo the boss after it

[bold valley]

Newbie here, can I just rush to level 70 and switch to Reaper?

[umbral dune]

yes

but if it just your level alone, you would hardly find any content that all of your arsenal can be used due to level sync

[warm snow]

Realistically not exactly

You won't have any good methods of levelling to all the way to 70 until you get into stormblood

[bold valley]

So just rush story?

[warm snow]

Would not recommend

You'll get there eventually, contents not going anywhere

[bold valley]

Just would rather play as that other class

[warm snow]

Rushing story has high potential to burn you out

[solemn jewel]

play dragoon its rather close to reaper

[warm snow]

We can't make you not rush the story, but it's not exactly gonna be the best experience.

[bold valley]

Thanks for replies

[warm snow]

Especially with as much content there is between 1-70

[modest igloo]

if you REALLY wanted to you could boost another job and then just swap over to reaper

[tight dust]

Is there a way to look at all the Beast Tribe glamour I could get?

So i know what I want to start grinding first

[still sinew]

Do you know if changing Garo's event title, for example from WHM title to NIN title, will reset my event progress?

[tight dust]

nah

Go strong

[still sinew]

Thanks!

[obsidian patio]

Nothing in-game

[umbral dune]

about MNK, when i dont have 4-point furry, do i use twin snake/true strike in between arm of the destroyer to get rockbreaker or not worth it?

[warm snow]

Twin snake when it needs to be refreshed

[umbral dune]

i know that they put charka at lvl 38 but between lvl 15 and 38, i can only ever use meditation one in boss fight cus doing so 5 times to get a steal peak is just dumb, would they change it or thinking about that?

[modest igloo]

prolly not, considering last expac you didnt unlock it til 52 lol

but we really dont know

for now think of it as a downtime mechanic thing

[crimson reef]

how long does it take to level up job from 60-70
