the square enix one yes?
ok, and you use that same numbers in mogstation, right?
well, you said you get numbers from the square enix app
if you don't have it, then you don't have otp registered on your account
if so, then you can just leave the otp field empty
🙏
it worked
OTP, (the Square Enix app on ur phone) generates a new code, every 30 seconds
you need to use this to login to the game, IF you have set it up
thank you thaun
👍
No worries, the issue got solved.
ah ok
no, sub is 13-15 dollars
Again, price depending in region and currency.
13 dollar i think? 9 quid or smth
13 euros per month here
You pay to play the epxansions, which is a full 60, but then you also get one free month alongside it
From then on every month is a fixed price
Where do I go for the glamor closet thing and the hair dresser guy?
Your room in one of the inns.
glamour either in the inn room or GC barrack
as for the hair, go to limsa, find a blue quest level 15 name "beauty is only scalp deep", finish it, when you need to call the hairdresser, go into the inn room as well
Reapers share same armour as dragoons right?
Yep.
They both use Maiming gear yes
Where is the inns located? I honestly forgot
One in each city, look for the adventurer's guild.
They’re the bed icons on the map
The glamour closets also exist in your grand company command center place
What does gcd mean?
Global cooldown
Anything labelled as a weaponskill or spell shares a cooldown
So you can't just play the game like a piano
Hey soooo I was playing the game 10 hours ago then logged out to sleep. I just tried to log back in again and the password was not working... I tried to then use the forgotten password thing but I got sent that the email is not connected to a Square Enix account (even though I was just using it 10 hours ago) anyone know what I can do or where to get help?
If you activate a weaponskill or other such ability, all others go on cooldown for what is usually 2.4 seconds. These are abilities on the gcd, the global cooldown
From GCDs to Snapshots -- A breezy look at some concepts and terms you'll make use of regularly in FFXIV but not really taught ingame very well (or at all).

Some abilites don't get triggered by this cooldown, meaning you can cast them between abilites that do, these are off global cooldowns
are you doing the password reset trough mogstation?
!faq mogstation
and are you able to login to your "old" password there?
Minor Correction: Free Trial CANNOT buy off of MB. I was mislead on that. Trial people can't do anything really lol. Just means LESS stuff to buy!
FFXIV is a huge, huge game! With lots to learn! This series aims to help you alone the game and tell you important bits of info and stuff you might miss! Come along and we'll see that this huge world...
yes🤔
I am so confused
but thanks
There's timestamps on the video and the guide is incredibly thorough
Is that meant for me?
whats mog station ?
Then you probably tried to reset your password for the square enix store.
Thank you
mogstation is the ffxiv account manager per se
I tried to do it straight from the launcher
hmm, then did it not manage to reset it's password?
though, if you are able to login trough mogstation
you should be able to login to the launcher fine now
no..
but I just reset the launcher and its fine
ahh not sure why this happened lol but thanks a lot haha
I was panicked
👍
😁 ✌️ thanks
This video actually just taught me I am clipping way too much 

Ah I see why I do it
I keep double weaving with my dark knight
I suppose I should curb that to stop clipping?
North America
Aether: 204.2.229.9
Primal: 204.2.229.10
Crystal: 204.2.229.11
Europe
Chaos: 195.82.50.9
Light: 195.82.50.10
Japan
Mana: 124.150.157.156
Gaia: 124.150.157.157
Elemental: 124.150.157.158
Oceania
Materia: 153.254.80.103
how do I ping the IP?
Windows: Open Command Prompt and type ping *insert IP Address here*
Mac: Open Terminal and type ping *insert IP Address here*
Even though it causes clipping?
that's the point
you shouldn't clip while double weaving
meaning you're either
A) Stupidly fast on SKS
B) your ping is garbage
C) you're too slow on using your ogcds
Or you're doing some cursed double weaving like 2 edge of shadows
How do people get those titles below or above their name?
which are 100% gonna clip
achievements and shtuff
you can set them here
this is the lvl 90 drk opener
not a single bit here is a forced clip
idk why the provoke is there but it's there, so
ah, it's so you start with aggro
pulling the boss if you don't want to use unmend
ye
Try to avoid pulling with Unmend, as doing so will delay Living Shadow. If you need to start with aggro, Provoke can be used to pull.
This is as fast as I can do it
yeah damn that queue for that ogcd felt like it took 500ms
182 ms
U pinged primal?
Yes indeed
May i ask where u live
cant double weave with that ping
The Netherlands
But if ur on pc noclippy miiight help
bit rip to use the US servers while living in EU
My friends play on this datacenter, so I play here too
Might I ask what noclippy does?
it reduces the clip queue, so that you can use skills so you can double weave
guys if i want to buy a full armor set of item lvl 580 from others how many gils etc for each peace or is it even tradable for lvl 580 armors?
it changes how the game perceives incoming and outgoing data, allowing you to weave closer together
tl;dr
no clips 
hmm
it's a far less cheaty version of xivalexander
Depends on server
Might give that a shot to see if it helps
which can be made to cheat and triple weave 
👀
Also cheaper to DIY if your crafters are adequately geared
That seems a bit much
it seems much but the dps 
Chaos: 195.82.50.9
Light: 195.82.50.10
mhmm what way is the best way to advertise what i want? like party finder? or discord?
Just open the marketboard
Type in "classical" and sort for ur class
Yeah chaos is 28 ms
Are survival manuals tradeable? I have 3 but my gather jobs 90
sso i only put them on a wish list and wait for someone to speak to me about it correct?\
Check the top of the item for a big UNTRADEABLE
You can still vendor them iirc
i can only exchange lvl 50/60 stuff at script exchange even tho im at endwalker, do i need to do some quest to unlock it?
!faq scripunlock
Unlocking scrips (Foundation x10, y10.)
Unlocking Idyllshire's House of Splendors (Mor Dhona 22, y6)
Unlocking Rhalgr's Reach House of Splendors (Rhalgr's Reach x10, y12)
Unlocking Eulmore's House of Splendors (Eulmore at x11, y10, on the top floor)
Unlocking Radz-at-Han's House of Splendors (Radz-at-Han x11, y9)
@leaden ginkgo marketboard is ppl putting their stuff on sale. You can buy the items directly there
thx!
@wind zephyr go unlock all the other shit, all vendors will share inventory tho
thanks!
Welcome to proper gameplay 
No worries
Thank you!
I just started a new job (samurai) and it took my paladin level which is 50? Is that just the overall level? If so, where can I check the actual level of my samurai job?
ayo just asking but which server is the rp one
sam starts at 50.
Jobs from expansions start at later levels
All jobs have their own levels
Samurai and red mage start at 50
Balmung and Mateus are known for rp, but every server has rp
👍 ty bro
dark knight, astrologian and machinist start at 30
samurai and red mage start at 50
gunbreaker and dancer start at 60
reaper and sage start at 70
It's to lower the need to level your alt jobs
cause leveling that many from 1 is 
Jobs in the next expac will start at 80
Oh wow... Machinist with the double weaving is intense
I'm farming Vexatious memories of the dying for my ShB relic in Far East FATEs, but sometimes I don't get them, and I was wondering if that's because it's a chance thing, or because you can only get one from each unique FATE?
you have to get a gold participation ranking to get them
it's rng
yes but gold guarantees it
Unless they changed that
it's not from the fates.
wait, am i thinking other memories
oh yeah the rng is only from bozja "fates"
it's guaranteed if you get a gold ranking.
when was this
cause afaik they only increased chance for fates
only raids had guaranteed 3x
But I was getting gold and not getting some?
it's rng from fates (a bit over 25% according to akhmorning)
and guaranteed 3x from raids
so you could either bang out fates while leveling an alt job
or do fates + queue for raid
Guess it was just bad luck that I was getting them from the FATEs I hadn't done yet and not from ones I'd already got one in then lol
And yeah that's what I'm doin
yeah, just bad rng that makes you thonk
Noone does those raids on OCE though, esp not this time of night, so pretty sure I'm going to end up getting them all from FATEs
no harm in queueing while doing the fates
worst thing that could happen is the queue doesn't pop
Yeah, two hours in queue so far, still waitin
Can a blue/green parsing healer reasonably clear ultimates (not the new one - I'm sure that's way out of reach for the time being, but the older 3) or is the dps checks tight enough where they'd really need more optimizations -- assuming it's not a situation where they're being carried too hard
Does anyone know if there a plug-in that can let me save and use my hotbar on other characters?
Updated for 6.11
are you playing on controller?
Nope, mnk
go to my document>my games>ff14> find the CHR folder that gonna be replicated (creation date) > copy the hotbar and override the same file on destination CHR (new character)
you can copy the entire content though, so hud layout as well
For dps level 1- 50 is squadron better to level up or trust?
squadrons technically would be better since they're are generally faster, especially if you have their tactics raised
but you can't use squadrons at 15+
first dungeon with them is halatali at 20
what about the gap between totorak (24-27) to brayflox (32-34) and brayflox to stone vigil (41), would it still faster if the queue > 15mins
the exp from squadron dungeons are, iirc, slightly adjusted but yea squadrons would still largely be better
cos you can do squadron dungeons, even with not that great of tactics but if you do have max tactics it'd be better, in nearly comparable times to player ran dungeons
whereas trusts ofc are hard designed to be completed in roughly 30mins
you can shave it down to like 25~mins potentially but you're never getting close to player times with trusts
Is there a setting to see which action is assigned to what keybind? Like the specific keybind used to be in the corner of the action in hotbar, but now they’re gone
you probably threw the action onto an unasigned bind
Let me rephrase that (sorry had wording), I can see which actions are binded to say 1,2,4 etc, but certain actions that are binded to shift+1 etc don’t show up in the corner of the action anymore
Yes because it’s activating it
It’s just not actually showing up on the action itself
It’s not an issue, just inconvenient
Nvm I found the solution. When binded to key setting 2 instead of 1, they don’t show up
Not sure why it was on 2 in the first place
ultimates are far more lenient DPS check wise
if blue/parsing is purely a product of bad gear or you having to excessively cover for your team/co-healer it is fine
Can anyone recommend me a up to date eureka guide?
if it's also due to loss of awareness, then maybe that's a different issue
From what I know, as long as you look up for "Shadowbringers eureka guide" you should be fine
Question: did they ever change msq roulette? Haven't played for a year or two
They just did, read the 6.1 notes
Oh for real? I'm trying to avoid endwalker spoilers, dont have 6.0 yet. What's the short of it?
@warped nest thank you good sir
Castrum and Prae are shorter. ||Ultima Weapon|| is a trial now that can come up in the roulette.
Wonderful, thank you!
Where can I practice rotations at? I’m still at ARR
Summerford Farms and a few other places have training dummies
Hey i studying for p1s now and there is some vocab that i need to know what they nean like:
Point back aoe and donit aoe?
Point blank is usually a circle aoe right on top of the boss. Donut is a circle with a hole in the middle.
point blank means aoe on the boss, you need to move out
donut aoe like a donut has a hole/safespot in the middle so you move in
Cool thaanks
Some donut AOE do have a outer safe zone (this is a case by case)
But the norm is to just dodge inside
Uh these shouldn’t be new dude
Split means your team need to stack to split the damage
Proximity usually means you got a tether
proximity is all over normal content
And you wanna walk far away to reduce the damage it dealt
proximity deals more damage the closer you are to something, like a pulsing ground aoe or a player with a huge marker that shouts "get away from me"
There is no mention for the aoe that i asked about there
P1s donut aoe is just go outside the boss hitbox right?
Yeah lol the naming is different
Sure, but like actually read what the guide says dude
but like yeah im p sure there are donut aoes in the msq dungeons
The ShB 77 dungeon
Copper bell as in the lv17 one
Where the armadillo point blanks into donut
yeah im thinking more EW stuff, so theres no excuse even if they skipped or something
iirc zot has some donuts on the 1st one
zot has a lot of donuts 
Hey guys im playing free trail right now and I have max gil atm and just wondering if you guys recommend something for me to buy to spend a little bit of gil so I dont waste any money!
(new to game)
.
doubt anythings changed, but somethign to get u started https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/iy165i/free_trial_player_here_is_a_guide_on_ways_to/
Thanks 
Thanks 
btw for EW EX2, how does maintaining melee uptime during teh blue cross aoe work? ive gotten it once on GNB, but couldnt replicate it consistently
sorry 2, not 1
oh not the one I was expecting but
I think it's positionals faq
!faq positionals
why not larboard smh
The cross AoE is based on her orientation so you can find the corner by standing at the "melee here good" spot
where rear meets flank
and then backing up to max melee
if you're MTing in front then suffer
How many echo stacks can be given to a party in a lvl 50 ex trial? And how many times do you have to die to achieve maximum stacks?
The real question is why you aren’t just unsyncing it
Mentor roulette
Trying to make it easy on a newbie party
where abouts would be the best place to look for groups for unsynced trials?
PF
cant find many groups for tsukuyomi
So make one
if it still right, at least 3-5m in the fight to gain a stack of 5% to a cap of 20%
And you still have to assume the newbies are well, competent enough for the fight
25% echo is max
What’s bozja? Is it hard?
have you done eureka
I have to do eureka for it?
I have eureka unlocked but I don’t enjoy the leveling of it. So if bozja is the same then nvm
The biggest different with Bozja is that you can use it to gain "real" xp for your classes.
I just want poetics
As opposed to just the elemental Eureka-only xp from Eureka.
Do they give same or close to same poetics?
depends on que times tbh
Que times for what? Getting in?
Depends how busy eureka is
The poetics per fate is higher in eureka, but they have to be manually triggered
Hm guess I’ll just stick with arf Ty though
Hi! Can I overmeld any 90 armor pc with any 90 crafter job?
No, if it says you can’t overmeld then you can’t overmeld
Can you do NG+ on Job Quests?
Yes
Only crafted gear can be overmelded at all, but you can do so with any crafting class at 90.
oh yeah, I meant to ask if I could pentameld any advance meldable pc with any 90 crafting job. I thought weapons are only meldable by whatever job can repair them or something. Thanks!
Does anyone know if viera can wear the Genji helmets?
I heard that viera aren't able to wear certain head armors
They can not, pro tip gamerscape shows if it does or not
what does the 591 mean next to waterside exploration XXI? (Fsh)
The gathering you need, It’s the same deal as all other explorations
Hey i am new fighting ifrit he keeps just nuking the area and insta killing everyone
Kill nails
are u killing the infernail nails
That should be easy to do tho, so do it
Thanks G 😘
is saltedxiv outdated?
looks like it
https://i.imgur.com/nkSpo57.png am i finished with her now?
there was some big drama between salted and balance, so where as balance mentors used to put up guides on salted they now moved to a new balance site
what lvl gear the does the new raid coin give?
the coin is to augment radiant
if those hearts are full with this weird ui skin then pretty much done yeah, there's titles for 150 turn-ins to each npc but that's a bit more grinding
Which is 590
Aug is 600
there any good guides for keybinds ui layouts etc that are up to date? looking to tweak things and been playing for a bit
well do you know of any is what im asking
if i allow guests in my fc room can they move stuff around
no
No one else can ever touch your furniture in fc rooms and apartments
Only houses can have that happen and you would still need to actively give someone permission to do so
try those command from the kupo bot in #kupo-bot-spam , even if it not EW, 80 lvl up to ShB is still relevant significantly
odd question - when using strafe instead of walk left and right in keybinds (to avoid the camera turning when I walk left and right without holding right click), it works fine 99% of the time - however, if strafing left and right while walking backwards, it walks slower because it always faces forward. any solution to either problem?
(using legacy camera mode)
no because thats how the controls work
You’d just have to manually move your camera back to go fast but just pop sprint when you need to go back
Am I able to join in on the house lottery today? Or is it locked
its suspended
when is reset
if you are on PC
xivlauncher/dalamud has a plugin that fixes this exact problem
allows you to run backwards at an angle when legacy controls are on
#kupo-bot-spam !daily/!weekly
Since you didn’t say which one
Cough cough #kupo-bot-spam, I just gave you the commands
yo is there a way to see which gatherer tomestones you have used? the ones that unlock the special nodes
ah nvm
any chance you could drop the name of it?
simpletweaks
ah, thanks!
there's a setting to lock camera in legacy mode and another setting to force back-run if moving backwards
turn both on and they work exactly as you describe
this is exactly what i needed, thanks!
Question guys i wanted to do the job quests for samurai from the start thought i could do them from new game + but i cannot anybody know why?
Have you unlocked NG+? There's a
quest in Vesper Bay that is required
You have to finish a section
You have to complete the quests once first
It won't show up until then
If you turned it in already you can't go back
You'll have to finish the first chapter (level 50-60 iirc) to unlock it in NG+
Once you've finished a full section you can start it over in ng+
Or use the Unending Journey in an inn. You'll be able to watch some of the cutscenes there if there are any.
but i dont have a job quest available atm
oke so i cant do the job initiation quest again
these ones
.
Yeah everything is working correctly
You don't have a job quest again until 54 and like aril said you need to do up to the 60 quest for it to show up in ng+
Why did monks get an extra relic due to the kettles in ARR , just curious
Funny glamour weapon goes brr
It’s not really a relic so like…
What quest do i need to get the collectables tab in my crafting log?
Inscrutable Tastes
You're only supposed to be able to get one token per run of normal raids, right ?
which one @raw granite
P2N specifically
So you can run it and get nothing lmao cool
and you only need 4 now
you were able to run it and get nothing before the removal of the loot lock
Cause you are fighting loot with other players
I thought you could only get one drop per run before ?
If you lost the dice, you won't get anything
in fact, it was recommended to pass everything and only roll on the token for the loot you wanted
and rerun the boss
There's no pity drop in normal
if you lost the roll
I think I remember not being to roll on another token if I already get one
That was before the lock is removed
Oh ok so they changed that
but it was recommended to only roll on the token you wanted
and pass everything else
if you lost the roll then you rerun the boss and try again
if you just rolled on every token then you were only going to win one random one
now if you roll on every token, you can win some, all, or none of them
Hi guys. Long time wow player, just beat the endwalker MSQ as a "new" player. I am really enjoying the game, but there is one single thing that is preventing me from enjoying it fully: What gear should you keep for glam and what can you safely sell? Should I save everything thats blue or above? I come from the WoW transmog system and its a bit daunting knowing we have limited space and having to save every piece of gear.
Keep the stuff you want to use for glam
Keep whatever you want to use for glam. Most of the gear in the game can be re-obtained if you throw something away and then change your mind.
Everything is reobtainable somehow
Then do whatever with the unused stuff
And if you have anything that has this right icon lit up on its tooltip, you can store it in the armoire forever (unlimited space).
Hi! I wanted to ask if anyone knew if you could go down a tier in crystalline conflict? Like, I know ranking stars go down, but could I go down from silver to bronze if I lose all my stars?
no
Oh, alright thank you! I've been sitting at my last star for awhile now but i'll just give it a go then thanks! 
You'll lose all your stars but never your rank
In Faux Hollows, can you get a retelling more than once in a week?
No, it says so on the thing
Ok, I thought I saw a retelling symbol (swords) when doing the Faux Hollows after 2nd unreal trial, but didn't complete the painting (maybe the painting can appear but it wont reward a retelling)
The swords always appear, but you only get the one retelling a week
Well you can lose #rank
Dumb question. What's objectively the best class to run DR for faster runs?
yeah
For delubrum it doesn't matter alot as long as you pot up but you ideally want at least a single person using lost flare (BLMs ideally)
Bravery + Lost flare and stuff is ALOT of damage
But it can be overriden
Otherwise just use your unique skills
Dervish/seraph strike ext
And please please please use a pot
Just the base damage/skirmisher is fine
can you get into any pvp mode without going to wolfs den?
dang
Provided you've been to the den to do the unlocks
I mean as in before going there to unlock it at all
Obviously not
not even in roulette?
so should i buy all 580 gear and accesories from market place and augment it if i just want to reach 590 gear the fastest?
Pvp doesn't even have roulettes
Yes
I downloaded the starter edition to get a digital version on my PS4(I found no free edition on the PS store or in my libary despite having it registered on my square account) so I can just play without switching discs. It now ask me to register a new service account. I looked it up and one answer stated that you can switch accounts in Data Center. I want to confirm this so I don't have to worry about losing my current account/character or subscription.
um
i have no idea what is going on
Is anyone else having issues logging in via the launcher rn?
!faq XIVLauncher
Already using it lol
I tried using QL first and I had an issue multiple times, switched to normal and its still having the same issue
oh its working now
were do i go to augment the crafting gear?
Rashti, Radz-at-Han (X:10.8 Y:9.9)
no
Did you not get HQ
HQ will give you enough to get a HQ aug
Because yikes if you didn’t
no i bought full hq
ah ok got it now, never gotten augmented craftet gear before
Also you need a bunch of aphorism to buy rain
Yeah so like don’t turn in everything yet
You need like 3k
so what steps do i take now?
farm aphormisms
and trade in those for the crucible rains(?) and then exchange the tickets + rain for aug
cant i go do raids that drop 590 gear?
Not if you don’t have gear to use
so i dont need to farm aphorisms for all the pieces?
You’ll naturally get Aphorism farming the content
Also it’s only left side gear from the alliance raid
you can only get one gear piece from Aglaia anyways
And the alliance raid 590 gear is weekly locked
can i spam something for aphorism?
Dungeons
do expert roulette and then just spam the dungeons
hunt trains on a max level char work too
or that
ok nice ty guys :3
When do I lose my sprout? After 1000 hours I’m finally ready
When you finish the ShB MSQ including patches
Wow really ok thanks
@leaden ginkgo basically when you get to the <CURRENT> expansion, they move the goalposts with every expansion
There's also a time frame associated with it but you should easily hit it by the time you get that far into the msq
Would I enjoy this game? I've got some extra time in the next week, and considering starting a game. I like games with story, and I love spreadsheets. I do not like repetitive 'click this spot 100 times to gather/craft' games, and enjoy 'kill 100 of this monster' repetition even less. I am a real adult, with a child old enough to play this game too (may play with me, but not this month.) Would I enjoy Final Fantasy?
Should do
Probably. There's a very generous free trial if you don't want to pay just yet.
Although going through the early story there will be a lot of, go here kill 3 things, go to place talk to npc, then this npc, then this npc
there is nothing in this game that would require you to kill more than like 5 of something
unless youre doing one of the purposeful grinds
important thing is that the grind is usually optional endgame content
Gathering is its own kettle of fish, but it's completely optional
also crafting is its own in depth system
crafters have their own skills that you need to make a rotation out of
or risk failing the craft
its not just "click the button 100 times"
The game itself is very story centered, so there's always a good reason you're doing fetch quests or whatever.
And fetch quests are never more than kill 5 of a thing at the very most
tldr this isnt WoW and the crafting/gathering is very in depth
ok... I am fine with kill 5 things over here in order to hear next part of story, then kill 3 completely different things over there... but the economy (I really like spreadsheets!) isn't about repetition?
there aren't really any spreadsheets
Economy is a whoooooolee other beast
the economy has a soft reset every patch or so with new items and gear
Only if you want it to be
it's not like Eve Stonks simulator 2022
I use spreadsheets for managing my relic grind but that's a whole different degree of insanity and grind
XIV has a focus on being a FF game in an MMORPG, and endgame elements come if there's room without disrupting the player's QoL
are the sb leves only in kugane
correct
?
crafter scrip gear is useless once youve outleveled it right? cant even GC seal it
But there's not really a lot of spreadsheet ing for stuff, we'll there's arguably is for crafting but we have community tools for that
so just toss?
Should be able to desynth in 6.2
you can desynth it, but yeah pretty much
im talking about old 70 scrip gear
is desynth even useful at htis point
Materials are materials
And might get some mats for susanoo crafting cuz those are decent cash atm
Or clear demimateria
ok, so it sounds very simple, like the game is really just shepherding you through the story, and crafting/economy isn't very complicated or even a path to differentiate your gameplay. that is useful, thank you.
Differentiating gameplay would be more combat job choice
and thank you for this! a 'soft reset' sounds frustrating, you lose all your progress, if economy is what is fun for you
not necessarily
You can't really main- crafting/gathering
the economy in game works a lot like irl
when new fashion items come out theyre the hot new thing
and sell for a lot
and if crafters can craft those then you can make a lot
same with a new raid tier, food and potions will sell for a lot
The best selling stuff on the market is the crafted combat gear and consumables
With every raid tier, we get new versions of all that
basically its a chance for new people to get into the market without being strong armed out by existing people
playing the economy means you should follow the patch cycles and find out whats being added
its not like "X item will always sell for a lot, forever"
it fluctuates
Although there are some glamour and cosmetic items that will always have high sale values
yea stuff thats just hard to get will tend to sell for more
but hot new items will always net you more on release
Kind of working my crafters rn but my gatherers have been making decent passive income
I know AR-C is best in slot crafter is Aerth or whatever before that then or should I stick to handsaint
actually its not acr anymore
Oh damn
yeah. it is sounding more and more like this is a fun game to sit back and experience a story, a story you are the hero and an island unto yourself, and you can also group and have fun with likeminded people. In other words, you don't really need the people around you, and player differentiation of skills isn't nearly as important as just learning to do everything. Thanks everyone
Ohhh
yeah if you just take your time with it and treat it as an experience youll have fun
Progression wise should I go from handsaint to the aether stuff then to acr or skip ?
It's a JRPG, so yeah, that pretty much sums it up.
if you have the gil, i'd recommend just skipping. alternatively, gather the materials and make the precrafts then commission someone else to craft you the gear
You can play it almost entirely in a vacuum if you so desire.
yo do I even use addle as SMN or can I ignore it
Or you can interact and do side content (like playing the market board).
its free migitation
alright i'll keep using it as I have been
I didn’t know commissioning was a thing but that would cost me full anyways right
when i say commission, in this case i mean moreso having someone else craft it for you, but you still get most if not all the materials
👍
Are they role locked or are they generic like handsaint?
generic
role locked crafts don't exist outside of a few weird specific examples back from HW
Okay so I should prob lvl my other crafters to 80 then start the slow grind to 90
I was gonna be an Omni crafter anyway so might as well start now
Glad to see it’s generic tho so I can keep gear for lvl progression
how long do we have to hit series level 25 for the armor set?
like 8 months
oh damn lol nvm
the rewards stick for the next major patch but after that theyre cycled out for good
How do I add an action to my hotbar? Every time I try to add one from the list, it duplicates one already set in my hotbar
If it's an upgraded ability, it will always be the most upgraded version.
for example, Jump will always become High Jump once you unlock the trait
So like, if you're trying to set "Stone I" to your bar, but you have the trait that upgrades it to "Stone II", it will automatically become "Stone II"
It also works the other way around so if you're level synced you dont have to put the button back on your bar again
In my case, I’m trying to add Iaijustu but it keeps duplicating higanbana
I may have missed something
iaijustu becomes higanbana if you have 1 seal
higanbana cant be added to your hotbar 
iaijutsu changes based on how many seals you have
!action iajitsu
iaijutsu is basically just fancy talk for the word "technique" and its where techniques based on some combination of factors go like ninjutsu
i am level 16, can someone show me how to make the letters bigger in chat box. I have it set at 32 and it is tiny. I have a screen shot if it helps anyone. also, i use a tv for monitor. also, halls of novice, how do i pause the quest giver so i have time to read? Thank you very much.
My hotbar must be bugged then
You have 1 seal
click the cog icon next to chat and select the font size
open Event chat to see a chat log with NPC dialogue
So Iajutsu is turned into higabana
You can't pause the quest giver, but the dialogue will cycle until you tell him you're ready.
as for text size, I think you can increase UI scale in Character Config?
Get rid of the seal and you'll see that it's actually Iajutsu
Thanks
here it is at 32. ui 3840, 2160
i will do my best
character config > UI > set UI scale
it should also increase overall text size
i will try that
Is there a way to link a weapon's glamour into the chat? And is there a way to link items in the glamour dresser?
No, you have to have the item in your inventory, armory, or chocobo bags to link it.
Is there maybe a command to bring up an item in chat, like there is for abilities (the auto complete one)?
Again, no. Autocomplete is a special dictionary directory in the game.
Alright, thanks.

how many people do you need for dun scaith unsync
how do i know if a leave has multipel turn ins ?
The leve plate
Minimum 3 (one per party) to even enter. Not sure about minimum people needed to clear. Recommend at least one tank, potentially one healer just because some of the autos towards the end get a bit spicy.
how should it look
Here
<3
is it just me or is xenoglossy the only blm spell with a natural weave window
Xeno and foul are the only good instant casts you have
anything can be weaved with your 6 triple casts
i know thats why i said natural
firestarter proc is instant
Instany by default
as in without additional factors that i won't always have access to
Anyway to rewatch cutscenes? Accidentally skipped one
then sure but you wouldnt be playing blm right if you didnt use your ogcds
the book at the inn but you have to complete the quest
The Unending Journey at the inn.
Thank you
i'm trying to figure out how to minimze clipping without relying on rng
you have to clip triple and swift
Abuse the short cast of.fire 3 to weave sharpcast
Is Siren currently completely locked from allowing new accounts or is it based on the current time of day?
!status Siren
depends on time of day
okie, thanks
Ice phase > fire 3 + weave triple here
also foul doesn't have an instant cast time
oh
A QoL they added in endwalker
You can
Due to the 2 charges
If you don't know a fight you can always hold a charge for movement
lvl 90 opener does leylines then triple
Using them for burst is a gain, but so is actually being able to do stuff while moving
Knowing when to use them comes with optimisation
But casually you can just hold a charge for when it's necessary to move
so what should my opener look like at 70 the leveling rotation doesn't take that into account
triplecast is almost always saved for movement
you lose far more damage missing a spell from movement than you gain from using triple as a damage boost
Patch 6.1: Lucid Dreaming now level 14.
New? Got too many skills? Made the mistake of using a level skip and have no idea what anything does? Just hate reading? Try this guide out!
This guide seeks to teach new Black Mages how to Black Mage properly, without getting too deep into optimization. I'll be showing off and explaining some openers b...
precast f3, cast thunder, dump all your mana into fire spells, then start the rotation
if they don't let you precast f3 then just clip swift and then f3
it isn't like you're going to have many chances to get a proper opener anyway
i don't really get the option to precast stuff most of the time
you want to do them in order?
usually the team just goes in guns blazing
its just /draw <wait.5> then /sheathe or whatever theyre called
So I played the game upon release up until Heavensward on PC, I am now downloading the game on PS5, am I able to use my old character? Or will I be starting from scratch?
Macros aren't smart
So no
They're just reading lines of simple chat commands
That's it
If you link your console to thr account you used for pc, yes
(if you owned the game before you would need to buy it on console)
Awesome! Thanks guys I was kind of worried for a minute there
if your trying to get the weapon glow while sheathed thing to work this is the macro
/bm
/sit
/wait 1
/sit```
I bought the game on PS5 and downloading now. So I’ll see you guys around!
yea so just swift f3
f3's long cast is ass but it's your best spell to start a fight with
but if you're in aoe then swift a flare instead
after getting f2 buff, that is
so i shouldn't start with ice for the umbral hearts
i still like the bliz opener cause I'm an old man stuck in the old ways
no
bliz opener is real old school
Fire first get despairs under buffs
you start in fire because you're already full MP at the start of a fight
Which is good
in eurkan land, if i go in there as a nin and Lved to 14. but i want to switched to sge, will it be the same Lv or i need to start from Lv1
Secondly any QOL settings changes for PS5 you guys would recommend?
Is it better to complete story till endwalker and get to lv90 before doing savage raids and grind for ultimate raids?
do people do buff window stuff outside of savage/ultimate
Elemental xp is shared
You have to do the story to unlock the raids
You should be using buffs on cooldown anyway
ty
So naturally they should be up together
As literally fucking everything is 2mins now
Im now half shadowbringers or so and at lv 78 but thinking about starting raiding since its strictly synced anyway
For ultimate raids
And the only Ult people are doing right now is the lvl 90 one
You'll probably want to do the current savage tier otherwise ultimate will kick your shit in
if you havent done ANY endgame content yet then ultimate is going to drag your ass
and you need to do savage to unlock ult anyway
Yea i mean like start doing normal omega raids, then do all the savage ones and after i feel ready do the ultimate
fuck no, lol
youll have a hard time finding a group to do omega savage synced
You won't find people to do old savage stuff synced
considering its old now
you're lucky if randos press their buffs at all in normal content
Even old synced discord are inactive and fluctuate in activity
Hello!
Question regarding the Garo gear. Can it be stored in the Armoire?
no
No but you can reclaim it from the salvager if you got the title
Title?
So its better to lv to 90 and complete the whole msq and start doing the new raids or?
Yes
elemental level is separate from job level so your sage is still level 14 elemental
The garo titles that you need to get the mounts
any job you have at level 70 or higher will be level 14 elemental
Alright thx
Do you still need to have bought everything from the vendor first?
Also, how do you get title?
from buying the full gear set
Talk to the priest
And weapon if applicable
and then equipping it
When equipped with the full set
yo hey, i have a problem here
no it can't
i did bought comp collection of game and now i cannot launch my game with my new steam launcher
was it working on steam before?
it is not even downloading new launcher
when you get the achievements you can toss the gear though, calamity salvager will have them after that
is that question to me?
yes
it was no problem here
i was on trial version of game, and now i did bought comp collection and thats all new launcher is not downloading about 15min
was your trial on steam
I had this problem for a long time and had it finally figured out. So I decided to share the information in case someone have the same issue. SITUATION I've downloaded the TRIAL VERSION and started playing the game until I decided to buy the FULL VERSION. After doing that, Steam automatically got rid of the "Final Fantasy XIV Online Free Trial" ...
oh thanq u, on it
are there any events going on rn?
Yes
The Maiden's Rhapsody event is rerunning.
And the Garo PvP event as well, but that's a longer-term thing.
Make it Rain is happening sometime in the near ish future
Quests Already datamined in full
If I do my DRs now before weekly reset later, will DRs also reset later after weekly reset?
It’s dependent on daily reset soooo
roulette bonus counts for when the roulette ends/bonus is awarded
I see thanks
Daily bonuses always reset on the daily reset timer, which is offset from the weekly timer by a few hours.
savage raid is the only exception (and maybe ultimate kek)
Cause those reset weekly
starting a savage raid before reset fully counts as before reset
even if you finish after
done, thanks mate
what class shouldv i asssign my retainer to get money
Any, honestly
But gatherers will bring back gathering materials.
Combat class retainers bring back a bunch of stuff.
which ones bring back dyes
can you change their class
But you’ll have to re-level so no point
so then the class maters a lot
It doesn’t
Not really
Usually people will do one retainer combat class, then any others as a combination of BTN/MIN
you only get 2 retainers for free and i assume gatherss only gain stuff from their class right
How do I turn off battle effects
Character Configuration > Control Settings > Character tab > Battle Effects Settings
Make sure you do not turn party effects all the way off, as that will hide important information like ally dot puddles or healer bubbles
Select limited, which cuts out all the visual clutter but preserves vital information
How on Earth was anyone supposed to figure out step 4 of "The Greatest Story Never Told"?
Like seriously, if you figured it out without a guide or snother player, please tell me how you did it.
what kind of venture should i send them on
If you want the dyes then quick ventures
do you get aetherytes when you story skip?
Hunting/gathering ventures for specific items, or the 16 hour ventures for the chance of their respective rare items, usually a minion or rare crafting material
It’s kinda classic high school mathletics type stuff
@flat yew yes
Or book of number puzzles or whatever
Yes, you also get flying unlocked for the relevant zones.
i'll agree that it's pretty fuckin whack for the average person to figure it out
But it’s doable for a lot of people
awesome, thanks. You don't happen to know how likely it is that we'll get cross-region DC travel? region-wide cross-play is planned to happen soon but I wanted to play with a group of friends on NA so I was considering boosting to be closer to my progress on my main
they never said cross region was going to happen soon
we dont even have dc travel yet
i imagine cross region dc would take at least another year
Anyone in Crystal wanna mount farm Hades extreme
This isn’t really the place for that kind of question
I don't know about your high-school, but mine never messed around with applying a 6 digit number to a word.
But yeah, no, I was just curious how people solved it.
Ciphers are pretty common knowledge
The current plan as-stated is to implement regional cross-DC travel only, see how that works, and then maybe in the decently distant future consider going to full cross-regional DC travel.
But there's quite a lot of complicating factors, chief among them being intra-regional cultures and how they play with each other.
It's a cipher then, this video timestamped has the thought process most people into this sorta stuff would go for: https://youtu.be/XcsZVEGMFMI?t=444

Like I said mathletics stuff
personally I would never get it because it's not part of my personal experience or interests but people into this sorat stuff got it on their own and solved it for others so
It's just really if you're super intuitive at these puzzle things, which I am personally not
the logic makes sense in this vid for me though
I'm not gonna argue against that, I figured out the others pretty easily. It's just the numbers one that has me scratching my head.
Kinda tricky but not super crazy
Appreciated
the vid is cool because it shows stuff i wouldn't have picked up on myself, but i'm sure if you give most people enough time they'll get through ti
there were people selling the starter hatchets for 17k do people actually buy those
yes out of lack of information, or laziness
you can check the sell history to see if people get scammed
the vendor is literally 10 feet away from the bouard
I actually skipped a step on the first riddle. You're supposed to get the solution from an npc, but I just went "oh, a scramble, this is easy!" Lol
the laziness tax is real, and someone ends up paying it
those people are stupid
idk about stupid
sometimes my time is worth a lot more than 17k gold
depends on the person
it's stupid to pay 2000 times the price
for a trip that takes less than a minute
Anyway not the channel
again, lack of information also plays a part
fair
You can make alot of money from people's sheer laziness
generally people who do it aren't being that lazy if they know it's that easy
Why drive around looking for a cheaper deal when this overpriced mega chain mall has everything I need
Omg you don't even get anything for that quest lol.
"The Journey is the Reward" I guess.
SE didn’t want to tie anything big to the quest since people would feel compelled to do it and just look everything up
(I do wish it had a title though)
At least I get a nice shirt from some side-quests.
Fashion Fantasy XIV
yeah, some yellow sidequests have a few rewards funnily enough
most don't but there's a list of all the yellow ones that do give stuff outside of a rich lore experience
pretty sure i got a minion from a yellow sidequest
Is it the larva
i think it was the kitten and dogo
I remember getting him from a quest, but I don't remember what kind it was
you get the larva, the funny dog, and the funny cat
Okay yeah, you get the Chigoe Larva Minion from a side quest.
yellow quests in later expansions also are a necessary gateway into doing beast tribes
they also give the great serpent of ronka

Tsuchinoko
did they uncap the tokens for normal asph
gear tokens are now a free for all, so you could win them all, or you could win none
I love the lore some minions have @outer mural
"Minfilia found a baby buffalo in a cupboard and just gave it to you when no one else claimed it"
how do you custom deliveries fishing
I just look them up, tbh
i have the fish, but the person doesn't want them
Hmm not the right one
Does the Goobbue Sproutling lore change based on race?
No
But it’s a level 50 skill that looks like a hand holding a box

Nothing outside of dialogue outright changes in text regarding your race iirc
!minion goobbue sprout ping
To achieve their cyclopean size, goobbues must maintain a daily diet of several times their own weight. Luckily, the beastkin are not finicky eaters, and will consume almost anything that cannot outrun them. If rumors are to be believed, this includes Lalafells.

Ah, I only wondered because it says "may eat Lalafell" and I'm a Lalafell.
Haha yeah there are lots of jokes in the game about Lalafells being eaten
Countless fate descriptions
!item grade 4 skybuilders’ cookpot
Almost identical to the grade 3 version but with a better warranty, providing cover against “irremovable stains except for in cases where strange or unusual ingredients have been used, such as Lalafell fat.”
there's a particularly well-known one for ishgard restoration, i think one of the soups or something talk about lalafell fat as a broth ingredient
YEAH
!item giant poppo
An alarmingly overgrown popoto suitable for raising hearty Lalafells. (Any Lalafells reading this may rest assured that this does not qualify as cannibalism.)

Close the member selection window
Ur right thank you
am i reading this right and riddle of earth is only good for 3 gcds and then it disappears?
Yes
is it easy to grind out the Tamamo Headband from the fates?
so it clears all stacks after executing 3 weaponskills
whats the point
They forgot to change it
It’s not too hard given you can get the tokens from the pre-requisite fates even if Tamamo isn’t spawning
Cause it used to be true north for 3 gcds
Extra true north with mitigation attached to it
But now it's not
Sassho-seki Fragment these?
Oh yeah they did remove that part 
Yep
so its mitigation for 10s but in reality its actually less than 7 seconds 
So now it’s just like MNK’s version of Third Eye
But stronger with a longer recast
the pre-requistite fates is the fox-lady fate right?
or am i missing something
They lead to Foxy Lady, but the super fate has a long respawn timer of 48-72 hours or so
And doesn't show on the map when it spawns
so outfoxed gives them?
outfoxed is the normalish one?
Yes
no 48-72 wait time?
Which can spawn foxy lady if it's off cooldown
However, if either fate respawns before Foxy Lady does, you need to do them both again.
hm?
What does the little lock mean on armor?
Question, when will beast tribes for Ew be added most likely? (Aside the one from 6.1)?
Arkasodara, Loporrits, and probably a generalized one for the last zone
As for patches, likely 6.2 and 6.3
what does it cost to replica Awoken and Anima Weapons
Only like 100 Gil for the replica itself
It unlocks once you get your first anima to the i230 step or so, IIRC
alright ty ty
ayo
have fun
