And there's no in game proof

boreal storm
#

The devs don’t care about shaders tho

warm snow
#

They don't have footage of you using shaders

faint flare
#

Screenshots can be heavily edited and can't really be taken as evidence frequently

warm snow
#

They cant prove you didn't use photos hop on a screenshot

faint flare

Especially when most cut off the 14 watermark

What is chocobo level cap?

boreal storm

You have to feed it Thavnarian Onions to get it to rank up after 10 though.

Is there a way for me to say a pre typed message in game?

You can write a macro, or in some cases you can use the auto-translate function if the phrase is something that would be in the auto-translate dictionary.

#

ive heard very bad things about e8s's light rampant, but i wasnt there when it was current
how bad is bad?

open coral
#

Now? Not very. Then? It sucked.

faint flare
#

It was a mechanic very early in the fight that wiped you if anyone failed

boreal storm
#

If you’re syncing it, it’ll be a similar experience

open coral
#

Ehh. I did it synced at the end of ShB, and it wasn't that awful. It would still wipe you, but it didn't feel particularly punishing.

outer mural
#

it isn't a guaranteed outright team wipe if literally anyone messes up but it gets pretty close

open coral
#

A lot of it depends on your party knowing what they're doing.

outer mural
#

like you can get away with a handful of people living if the mistake isn't particularly disastrous

#

optimally if you unsync now you just pump to skip it for both time and effort

#

so whatever cirnocup

modest igloo
#

its skippable now with some gamers

outer mural
#

but if you had to do it it's not a particularly crazy mechanic, it just really checks how good people are at actually navigating their characters

open coral
#

Basically, it was worse when people didn't have the gear and didn't really understand how the mechanic worked.

#

Now, with gear and understanding, it's no worse than any other Savage mechanic.

outer mural
#

yeah. my friend has a really bad time in PF since it needed a relatively high standard of coordination and healing

vital ruin
#

can u dc travel to access their market boards?

open coral
#

Yes

outer mural
#

yeah

vital ruin
#

how

open coral
#

You can buy from other MBs, but you can't sell on them.

vital ruin
#

ya

boreal storm
#

DC travel isn’t a thing yet

vital ruin
#

o

#

nvm

open coral
#

Oh, yeah, not between DCs.

#

We won't know until 6.2 if you can buy on MBs on other datacenters.

stone tinsel
#

is potd still recommended for leveling? I can't find a game for 60 min

outer mural
#

they already confirmed we can

#

we just can't travel y et regardless

#

uhhhh potd is fine if your queue is that bad yeah but

open coral
outer mural
#

you're on crystal? how are your queues that bad

boreal storm
#

What floor are you running

stone tinsel
#

31-40

boreal storm
#

That’d do it

open coral
#

That's why your queue is bad

faint flare
#

There you go

outer mural
#

oh that's what you mean

faint flare
#

51-60 is the farm floors

outer mural
#

yeah just do dungeons for levelling man

#

potd is the last resort, not the prio for levelling

open coral
#

PotD/HoH/Bozja are just for if your queue times for dungeons are too long. If you don't have 51-60 PotD unlocked, you're still going to be better waiting out the dungeon queues instead.

patent fog
#

is eureka worth doing for xp?

open coral
#

No

solemn jewel
#

Eureka gives no exp

boreal storm
#

It doesn’t give exp

faint flare
#

It literally gives 0 xp

open coral
#

Eureka has its own leveling system

stone tinsel
#

ah thanks 🥲

patent fog
#

pain

#

if i have to go into the violet tides one more time

outer mural
#

yeah 61 - 70 will just be a slog

boreal storm
#

Heaven on high

#

Also you can’t even enter eureka below 70

feral oxide
#

Were do I get crystal clusters (for crafting) other than gathering and killing monsters? Just buy off the market?

faint flare
#

Gathering, aetherical reduction, retainers, market

vital ruin
#

is there a faster way to travel to gold saucer directly than via airship?

faint flare
#

Teleport

vital ruin
#

o

feral oxide
outer mural
#

you get the most out of manually gathering timed nodes for crystal clusters but the issue is that they're time gated

faint flare
#

Specific venture for gathering retainers

stone tinsel
modest igloo
zinc orbitBOT
open coral
outer mural
#

aetherial reduction is a decent way ot getting them if you were initially farming stuff from reduction anywaay

#

what Aura said

#

NEVER queue for a roulette for exp after the daily bonus has been done

stone tinsel
#

ok thanks

atomic lion
#

Are Shift, Alt, & Ctrl the only keys you can start for key combinations?

open coral
#

They're the most common

#

I don't think you can combine letter/number keys, if that's what you're trying to do though.

vocal cobalt

is there a glamour channel i have some questions

crystal bluff

Trying to do a massive overhaul to my HUD for better extreme runs

Also It appears that three of my hotbars change when I pick a new class but the other two don't, why is that?

quasi mulch

Hey, can I finish levequests sooner ? We did the stuff we have to do for the levequest and now we have to wait for the timer (3 minutes) to go down. Is there a way to skip that and go right to finish it ?

Which levequest?

Also combat leves aren’t worth

Ever

vale rapids
#

havnt played in a bit but heard recently that people were getting banned for using addons im guessing it was just some of them?

#

just don't be stupid

that's it

Only people who were mass reported

heavy wadi
#

^ streamers

open coral
boreal storm
#

Don’t say anything in game

vale rapids
#

isee

open coral
#

There were just some high profile bans recently because of the Ultimate race.

boreal storm
#

Because internet people are asses

vale rapids
#

lmao

vocal cobalt
#

guys i have posted something on glamour discusiion can u guys give your input it would be helpful

boreal storm
vocal cobalt
#

that channel is not active

open coral
#

People here aren't necessarily interested in glamour content.

#

We're here to answer gameplay and game-related questions, mostly.

boreal storm
#

Also fashion is super subjective
And we don’t mess with subjectives here

open coral
#

*Usually

elder pendant
#

which is faster to get a zodiac relic or eureka one?

open coral
#

Probably zodiac if you haven't done any Eureka at all.

elder pendant
#

do i need to get those eureka gear before starting it?

faint flare
#

No but it really helps

#

The osode/cloak makes you alot more tankier and do more damage

elder pendant
#

i see too bad its too expensive

faint flare
#

If you plan to seriously do eureka you'll make your money back and more

elder pendant
#

you can make money in eureka?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

There's mounts, minions, emotes and stuff in there that can go for alot

boreal storm
#

Assuming you actually get them

faint flare
#

Cassie earrings and stuff went for millions in the past

#

Massive spoilers for like everything stormblood+
||I've been sadly spoiled on bit plot points like minfillia being dead, Yda being dead and its actually her sister, paplymo dying too I think, estinen living and I think teaming up and working his stuff out with nid hog (endwalker trailer I accidentally saw) unless I am misinterpreting that scene.
Are there more/massive plot points later for me to look forward to still? I had just finished patch 3.2 where estinen chose to be a dragoon again by nidhogs command||

regal pawn
#

yes

#

lmao

#

some yuge ones

also

||He didn't exactly choose to be a dragoon again KEKW ||

they don't know cryy

#

ablobwobpats grab a bucket for ye tears

azure wagon
#

I want to click that spoiler but I do t wanna be spoiled
What's the light version of dat message?

lone totem
#

just hw and sb plot points

#

some are inaccurate btw

#

you have a lot to look forward to

modest igloo
#

Yeah trust us, there’s a TON in store for ya

lone totem
#

most of what you described is actually in trailers now lmao

#

so dont worry

modest igloo
#

I skipped to SHB and went to arr and STILL got blown away by the rest of the game

regal pawn
#

I'm not one to spoil future plot points, just correcting something you said with information you already have

lone totem
#

keep in mind its a 10 year old game

#

people have been speculating lore for years

azure wagon
#

Well thank you all! I am but ever more excited for the patches+
I had feared I spoilt most of the big plot points

lone totem
regal pawn
#

nah lmao

#

those are like

#

minor KEKW

boreal storm
#

Quite minor in comparison

remote lintel
#

because they do not have 4 horns like nidhogg

azure wagon
#

Ooooh
Good point
I just jumped to conclusions

#

Ty!

#

Is there a commonly used discord for the Material data centre?
For people to organise events, raids, map searches and stuff like that? Or is there a channel within here I am missing

faint flare
#

he also says their name

boreal storm
#

PF

remote lintel
#

people do those in game

vagrant pendant
#

is it recommanded to put materias on poetic gear while leveling?

remote lintel
#

no

#

materia is for endgame

boreal storm
#

You’re gonna replace the gear anyway

open coral
#

You can put materia on leveling gear (including Ironworks/Shire/Scaevan/Cryptlurker), but from a practical standpoint it gives you no real benefits, so it's not worth the time.

narrow jay
#

the benefit you get out of materia is basically an "every little bit we can eke out to help us clear this savage tier" situation

robust crow
#

like those aren't even stormblood spoilers

#

they're patch 3.55 spoilers

outer mural
#

yeah that's start of stormblood and that has a few things to go

#

you still have 2 expansions after that too

muted edge
#

So where is it that everyone in this game seems to find unlimited freinds? I have 3 do I can’t really run any content

boreal storm
#

They don’t

#

We queue using the systems the game provides

muted edge
#

What about endgame raids and pre made crystaline conflict parties

boreal storm
#

Party finder

muted edge
boreal storm
#

Those are endgame raids yes

muted edge
#

And you use the duty finder?

boreal storm
#

No, you use party finder like I just said

muted edge
#

Wait, oh ok

#

But I never see anyone recruiting on those

boreal storm
#

Then you’re not looking at party finder, because they’re filled with people recruiting for stuff

muted edge
#

So where is party finder?

boreal storm
#

The party menu -> party finder

muted edge
#

Ok

#

Thank you

hollow portal
#

What's the best spell setup for BLU fate farming?

modest igloo
#

crap thats prolly too small

pure copper
#

if im not really gonna do any endgame crafts, can i just live on 80 scrip gear at cap?

robust crow
#

considering you have trained eye

#

to auto-max anything level 80 or under

#

yes

gritty oracle
#

has afk kick been lifted?

strange coral
#

Nope

boreal storm
#

And it likely never will

little swift
#

Multi boxing isn't really permitted

#

Falls under betting type deal

robust crow
#

is it detectable or punishable though

#

my wife and I commonly log into each other's accounts to do random shit like gather mats Eyes

boreal storm
#

That’d technically be account sharing

little swift
#

It's likely but really is against tos

#

So not encouraged

uncut igloo
#

do Pomanders in PotD not go with u in a fixed party thru floors?

boreal storm
#

They do
Matched parties lose them between floor sets

uncut igloo
#

we keep losing our pomanders b/w sets

#

do we have to be in the same world or smething? i dont know whats making it work like this

sly saffron
#

Do any jobs get unlocked at lvl 40

boreal storm
#

No

uncut igloo
#

no

sly saffron
#

Ah ok lol

uncut igloo
green grail
#

either you continued another save or someone used it when you weren't looking

#

or there's a bug but that's like one in a billion chance

uncut igloo
#

we're starting from scratch every set

green grail
#

yeah then you won't have pomanders

uncut igloo
#

?

green grail
#

it's like a roguelike, new run you start with nothing

uncut igloo
#

wait, i mean like we're currently on 71-80, but we ended with 3 steels from the previous set of 61-70, and instead our inventory was emptied

regal pawn
#

Are you by any chance using Matched instead of Fixed?

uncut igloo
#

Its a fixed party

regal pawn
#

Always good to make sure

uncut igloo
#

where can i look on my screen to see that

boreal storm
#

On the save

uncut igloo
#

ill check

#

ahh isee

#

tyty

boreal storm
#

Also like once you hit floor 100, you would’ve saw that you can’t proceed

uncut igloo
#

i just left lol, PF Lead messed up

#

was blaming us

fringe reef
#

do you get the field notes if you just watch the duel in bodzja?

faint flare
#

No

fringe reef
#

ah, how do you enter one then? is it random on ppl?

uncut igloo
faint flare
#

Don't get a vuln stack in the leading CE

fringe reef
#

ah

boreal storm
#

So basically don’t get hit

faint flare
#

Then it's whoever has the highest notoriety out of the entries

fringe reef
#

thanks

boreal storm
#

Actually, how does notoriety work

faint flare
#

You get 1 everytime you don't get picked

#

Whoever has highest notoriety gets in

#

Tied notoriety makes it rng between them

boreal storm
#

Oh so it’s basically a pity system got it

fringe reef
#

and how do you earn notoriety? if you take part in engagements and fates?

little swift
fringe reef
#

aha

little swift
#

It increases your chance to be picked for the next duel

faint flare
fringe reef
#

so if i watch duels, and i'm lucky to not get hit in an ce then i may get it

little swift
#

No

fringe reef
#

hm

boreal storm
#

Watching duels has nothing to do with it

fringe reef
#

i see

little swift
#

If you're participating in an engagement that spawns a duel and you do well enough to be "nominated" for the duel and you don't get picked

boreal storm
#

Then Notoriety go up

fringe reef
#

allright, thanks

#

Is Centurio toekns useful for a relic step like I think Alliance tokens is used for ARR relic?

modest igloo
#

actually, you can buy some of the items with alliance tokens for the HW relic too

midnight tinsel
#

so how does jumping work in ffxiv

#

is it good bad or doesnt it matter

#

if you try to get in/out of aoe effects

modest igloo
#

doesnt matter

#

but it does make it feel better

midnight tinsel
#

ok cause before i heard it was bad

outer mural
#

it doesn't matter

#

jumping's for vertical segments only

#

all snapshots are 100% vertical if that makes sense, meaning it doesn't care if you're jumping or not

#

and jumping does not increase or decrease speed

modest igloo
#

last time we had that was what, old T5?

#

for even a little vertically?

narrow jay
#

In addition to that, all movement abilities treat your hitbox as if it is glued to the floor, regardless of where your character physically is. Thus, if you backflip across an AoE puddle while the damage from said puddle is snapshotting, you will still take damage from the AoE despite not being in contact with the ground.

midnight tinsel
#

when in dsr the bosses disapear

#

and later reapear

#

do dots continue to tick ?

modest igloo
#

nope

faint flare
#

Bosses are immune 99.9% of thr time

modest igloo
#

theres some weird arr boss stuff that can happen but after that they're all immune

narrow jay
#

They used to tick in ARR, but the devs realised that players could cause boss deaths during untargetable animations with ticking dots, so now they're just universally immune to all damage during those periods.

sly saffron
#

Is there a way to see which expansions i have

narrow jay
#

Account management on Mogstation

boreal storm
#

Also the title screen tells you
If it’s not showing EW, then you don’t own the other expansions

sly saffron
#

Oh ok

elder cloud
#

So do people usually put treasure map groups up on party finder? I've been trying to look for one in the past 3 days and haven't seen a single one.

boreal storm
#

If you want a group, then make a PF

elder cloud
#

That's valid, I've just never done it before so im just a lil anxious.

oak quarry

i tend to see more on the weekends

I'm confused on how to get level 5 petrify. e.e

clear gyro
jovial quarry
#

It’s a somewhat low chance to learn. If you’re going for the cast in Haukke Manor, you need to wait until the last add phase during the last boss and bring the floating eye mob to low HP. It’ll only cast it when it’s HP is very low. Once it finishes the cast, you can then kill it.

boreal storm
#

It’s only a low chance if you’re not syncing

I completed The gift of mercy quest but the Bitter snow quest doesn’t appear? How do I unlock it

hollow portal
#

This mob, or i actually have to go all the way to boss?

Mob is outside first boss door

boreal storm
#

Then it goes into the boss room

strange coral
#

And it died? Or ran off?

torn moat
#

When I did the manor dungeon's boss fight, I accidentally dodged the mechanic.

hollow portal
#

No it doesn't go to boss room. And it dies

#

You just kill it like normal mob

boreal storm
#

Okay then just wait for it to do the cast then

jovial quarry
#

Oh well in that case just wait until it casts

strange coral
#

Weird, in the video for the new version I just watched it still ran off to the boss room.

hollow portal

It's outside the first boss room not last boss

Hey all. I know this is likely a question asked constantly. However. I am new but want to play a reaper. What is the quickest way to 70 to unlock the class. I am on the double XP server

boreal storm
#

The story

crystal bluff
#

Msq

midnight tinsel
#

autumn anvil
tranquil frost
#

ok cool i am 45 already as a dragoon and got to the quest 'we come in peace'

outer mural
#

that's correct and yeah i agree, just do the story

#

should get you to 70 if you also do roulettes pretty early

tranquil frost
#

Yeah i did my first roulette today

#

I understand its once a day right?

autumn anvil
#

Yep, once you're overleveled and the main story halts at 50 for a bit, roulettes can easily get you to 70 by the time you get to Heavensward - depending on how much you play each day of course.

#

Once per day, yes - but once you get to 50 you get different kinds of roulettes as well.

tranquil frost
#

Ah i see

autumn anvil
#

So that's a pretty easy 2 levels per day or so just from those.

tranquil frost
#

I have also picked up random quests that have taken me to dungeons. SHould i do them?

boreal storm
#

Free exp

autumn anvil
#

Sure, unlocking more dungeons makes your queues faster and the XP is pretty good if the dungeons are level-appropriate.

tranquil frost
#

Ok cool thanks

boreal storm
#

No?

spare isle
#

hey, anyone know if lich is currently locked down due to being a "preferred" server or if it is permanent lock on new characters?

faint flare
#

!faq serverlock

zinc orbitBOT
#
Why can't I enter this server?

Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.

If i have a fwend kwill lvl 90 enewies, will BLU gain extwa extwa experiewence?

No

So it's kinda scaled?

you also have to be within a certain level range

you can't be farther than 10 below iirc

Hello, I am a returning player who made a new character, and then remembered the info to my old one. Is there any way to transfer my stuff over, or am I just boned and should delete the first toon?

boreal storm
#

Just use the original character

lapis bolt
#

ok i tried making a hotbar for smn stuff up to lvl 52, i have no idea if there's an element you're supposed to focus on?

jovial quarry
#

It’s a cycle. Trance then use all elements in sequence. Then repeat.

lapis bolt
#

... i'm going to sound really dumb, but I have no idea what trance is

faint flare
#

Aethercharge

#

For now

lapis bolt
#

oh ok

faint flare
#

It upgrades to trance and Bahamut later

#

Literally just the same thing just better

jovial quarry
#

I don’t recall if there’s any particular order to worry about at that level. But yeah, just use it one by one in a cycle and repeat.

#

ok ty!

i'm actually lvl 70 sch but slacked on my smn quests for too long, and then endwalker came out and the whole rework messed me up

Hi, is there a chance some servers not accepting new characters might accept them if I wait one day or should I just start on another one cause I'll have to wait too much?

faint flare
#

!faq serverlock

Why can't I enter this server?

Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.

Does getting to max reputation with special deliveries actually give anything other than glamour? I seem to be getting the same scrip rewards regardless of the satisfaction

jovial quarry
#

A reliable source of scrips with the chance for bonuses every week. Otherwise that’s about it. Although one level 80 client gives you a mount.

There’s the 2 bonus items each week

Is there a difference in the option to take a dungeon with NPCs vs other players?

twilit arch
#

not really

#

main difference is that trusts dungeons are going to take roughly 30mins every time

warm snow
#

Less loot too iirc

#

I believe trust loot still applies

#

But it does balance out since you're not competing for it

how easy is bahamut with unsynced help? should i look up mechanics or will I not even see them?

If you’re 80+ then it’s extremely easy

warm snow
#

You'll figure out dive bombs...

fossil trench
#

Yeah you still need to deal with dive bombs even on lvl 90

obsidian patio
#

Divebombs can easily be dealt with by running right up to Bahamut

#

Stand in center > wait for marker on head > run to Bahamut

fossil trench
#

Dual twintania/bahamut dive bombs though

#

They both target you when you're solo unsync

obsidian patio
#

Nah you’ll be fine with my method

twilit arch
#

t13 is super easy to unsync tbh

#

esp at 90

fossil trench
#

So long you know how to handle dive bombs, yeah

#

Being knocked into the death wall is still a wipe at lvl 90 pikalul

obsidian patio
#

Which is why I gave a quick and easy strat

twilit arch
#

and wynne gave the easiest way of dealing with it

obsidian patio
#

I’m testing it right now too, only Bahamut dive hits unless twintania is directly opposite of bahamut

I decided to return to the game after my friends ditched it, but I know truly nobody now and I want to join a server that has a ton of socialization, a ton of RP(both regular and erp), and where I may find a FC to call home (: any advice on servers? Still new to the game even tho I'm returning
I'm a bit nervous coming back to the game, since I played it with friends but they left it as soon as we beat the base game, I literally was SOOOO in love with the game and really want to keep playing after we stopped a few months ago, I'm nervous since like I'm going in alone this time and I want to join a new server, my main focus is socialization, venues that ppl set up such as bars and clubs and restraunts, and most of all finding ppl that I can befriend and call a virtual family with or without a FC (: I heard Crystal or Primal data center is the go to for this but want to see what the consensus was since I still know very little about the game

boreal storm
#

Just pick any of them, I guess you’re a RP person by that family comment
So do Crystal

if at all possible, just find your old character and play them

while it's true crystal is considered the RP-focused datacenter, datacenter travel happens in a few months and it's not going to matter anymore

and RP venues exist in all datacenters

Okay I'll do that, good point thank you(: also do you know any discords where they list social events that are happening? I was in one but can't find it again

just look at party finder

Those are done in game if anywhere

you are wasting your money on internet if you use wifi for gaming

not using it's full potential

well, at least try to be close to it so it's more stable :-)

I find rebooting the router seems to work the best when internet on the ps4 spazzes out, yeah

your internet speed/ping doesn't really matter

you just need it to be stable

Hey, I had to reinstall my Windows 11. FFXIV worked perfect before. Now though, I'm having really, really bad "lag" ONLY in FFXIV. I use an ability and 5 seconds later, it uses it.

yeah, seems like just random choir thrown in front of TomNTom

twilit arch

it could be released later

like we didn't get nowhere and everywhere until like fairly late

#

so

shrewd cradle
#

even more later?

#

it's a bit late already, but endwalker stuff probably takes priority

patent citrus
#

I mean adding a choir in front of tomntom and adding it into the same soundtrack as the original tomntom looks a bit lazy probably

#

they want to avoid that to ruin the quality, and doesn't make it lazy, releasing it later alongside other soundtrack cd

shrewd cradle
#

well

#

the track really starts form 3:07

#

so there is a string part

#

before the choir and tnt

#

i think it's track worthy

shrewd cradle
shrewd cradle
#

but i guess categorising, get clean cuts and releasing on a lot of platforms takes time

twilit arch

its more likely its just one of those tracks that just didn't get added for w/e reason

and not necessarily because it was "lower" quality

shrewd cradle

oh... but it's in the game

maybe i can...... borrow it from the game

gotcha. so should i just chill on the base stuff rn while im working through storm blood? its already pretty tuned up for the msq content im pushing.. was just curious if there was anything else between the base gear and poetics worth getting

fossil trench
#

From lvl 70 onwards, you can only access poetics gear after you finish the base expansion

#

Just gear using msq coffers and dungeon drops

#

That's more than enough until you start doing patch content

open coral
#

Technically the only expansion where you have access to the poetics gear before the end of the X.0 for the expansion is Heavensward.

MSQ roulette is still great exp/tomes

#

Just less exp due to less time spent

Yeah, it's more on par with leveling or Alliance roulette instead of being more than double.

covert parcel
#

🤔 so just do it once, if i didnt do the dailies for the exp yet?

open coral

Yes

#

That's how you should have been doing it even before the change

obsidian inlet
#

doing dailies help you get exp and more rewards

But it likely has something to do with the way you have your system set up to display fullscreen windows on your monitors.

Not with the game itself.

You don't have to do Masked Carnivale at all outside of the ones required for the job quests.

boreal storm
#

And the more spells, the easier of a time you’ll have

heavy wadi
#

uh

#

wait to get ink jet

open coral
#

It's significantly easier to get BLU max level, then just go and get the spells you need.

#

iirc, you only actually need to clear 5 Carnivale stages other than the two special stages for the job quests.

outer mural
#

i did masked carnivale after getting every spell outside of it

#

and just demolished everything

strange coral
#

If you're high enough level to do carnival, you're high enough level to get Ink Jet.

I think bad breath can be reflected, but I'm not positive. It's not hard to get (overworld morlbols), so you can grab it and try it.

Both Ink Jet and Bad Breath are magical attacks, so reflect will work on them

is potd still viable for exp in 60s?

so the only way for me to lvl from 60-70 is dungeons then

#

Ah

obsidian patio
#

And the story basically gives you 2m over the course of completing it

#

More if you keep up with daily roulettes and completing the challenge log

boreal storm

but spending irl money for gil directly, is A) gonna get you banned
and B) gonna get you banned

sly saffron
#

Dang that sucks

slate arrow
#

the game doesn't have much of an in game expense for gil anyways

#

the largest gil drain is housing and even then its purposefully limited

#

assuming you do your daily roulettes or content you'll be gil positive more often than not

obsidian patio
#

There’s crafted gear for endgame, but the prices for those are only expensive in like the first month or so of a new raid tier

#

Basically all of the pieces, at least on Gilgamesh, hover around 40k-60k

#

And as a reference point; most of the Daily Roulettes give around 15k if you’re the role in need and have the daily bonus available

boreal storm
#

No

jovial quarry
#

Not yet. If previous releases indicate, however, it should be within the next week or two.

honest anvil
#

has it been confirmed what 3 tribes we’ll get?

boreal storm
#

We only know the one, as that’s all they said was getting added in .15

#

Loporits are not confirmed, there hasn’t been anything about that

honest anvil
#

wait only 1 tribe is coming in .15?

#

||loporites could be linked to omicron with how the smileton sidequest went||

boreal storm
#

Yeah that’s not a conformation
Remember the nu mou were advertised at fanfest too, and guess who wasn’t a tribe

remote lintel
#

that was way before EW released

#

that was just announcing loporrits exist

Anyone got a paladin pvp controller hot bar setup i can use?

boreal storm
#

No, just mess around in the wolf den
Figure out what works, there’s only like 8 buttons

#

Where do I get lvl 80-81 FSH gear?

boreal storm
#

The scrip gear is at any scrip exchange
And that’s all you should need

naive ridge
#

80 gear is scrip gear or crafted 80 gear from MB

lethal mist
#

I'm looking to gear my FSH retainer, so it doesn't have to be top of the line IIRC

naive ridge
#

if you're not in a hurry, you can just do quick ventures to 90 and gear him then

lethal mist
#

Well I wanna be able to do the 81 ventures for the minions, so rather gear them for that at least.

naive ridge
#

then vendor gear should be fine

lethal mist
#

They only need 1 stat (perception I think) at 1500-something so it's not a big deal. I'll check vendor then, thanks. Is it in Crystarium?

naive ridge
#

81 will be in endwalker areas

#

Old sharlayan most likely

lethal mist
#

Oh ofc!

boreal storm
#

Each gear piece is like 45k each

lethal mist
#

Ýeah if I got any scrips left over I'll mix and match. Not bothered by gil cost tbh.

Hi, if I create a character on a non preferred server and then play in the preferred server will i get double exp? Or is it just if I create the chara there?

boreal storm
#

You have to start on the preferred server

umbral dune
#

Nope, only to new world(materia DC)

slate arrow
#

you only get the EXP buff if you CREATE a character on a NEW or PREFERRED server

ocean sonnet
#

Oof, do you think I should use the double exp for the first time in the game or choose a server I know there are more FCs I'm interested in?

outer mural
#

double exp is pretty big, though i’m not sure what you mean by the latter statement

#

most worlds don’t have any specific type of fcs that are more prominent than the others

hot eagle
#

the buff isnt rly needed so i would go to the world with the fc I'm interested in

slate arrow
#

Personally, I'd recommend going for a preferred server since cross world play makes it easier to play with friends regardless of FC

outer mural
#

also entirely contextual. if you already have friends in an FC then i get it, but i agree with industrial

#

you could always swap to the fc server later

#

can’t do the same for the exp world

lethal mist
#

Btw is that doubling ALL exp or just monsters and such? I mean dailiy bonuses and others that aren't affected by food. They still double that?

slate arrow
#

yes

#

its one of the few sources which affect ALL exp rewards

#

not most or select sources

umbral dune
#

But the lodestone said transfer to new world still give road to 80, that was changed already?

boreal storm
#

It doesn’t

slate arrow
#

lodestone never said that

outer mural
#

it’s never worked like that even if it apparently said it

umbral dune
#

On the materia DC open page it says that

autumn anvil
slate arrow
#

yes, for CREATING a character

boreal storm
#

As is standard

umbral dune

NEW WORLDS

autumn anvil
lethal mist
boreal storm
#

Not preferred ones

slate arrow
#

That's what he said, Pratai.

#

My bad, Imperator. Usually New and Preferred benefits are the same.

outer mural
#

oh yeah i see now

#

also my bad imperator i assumed the wrong thing

umbral dune
#

Nah, i afraid they stop giving the bonus as well cus materia is like 4 months old, double check for assurance

boreal storm
#

They’re still new worlds for now, so until that changes

slate arrow
#

I do think the New status will be around for a while. OCE will definitely be underpopulated for a while since most of the people there are already entrenched on JP servers, or play on NA

ocean sonnet
slate arrow
#

You don't need to

boreal storm
#

You don’t need to, no

slate arrow
#

but it makes it easier yes

ocean sonnet
#

I mean, to not waste exp

boreal storm
#

Still don’t need to

outer mural
#

yeah if you wanna be efficient though

#

that’s what i did

autumn anvil
#

Sure - if you plan on playing multiple jobs then it's a good idea to start early to not waste xp.

slate arrow
#

Regardless, even doing dungeons will be significantly faster

autumn anvil
#

Just saying, if you're the kind of player that just plays a single job at endgame then the XP boost won't do a lot. You still need to get through the story and XP won't help you do that faster.

slate arrow
#

plus, HW means that you can unlock and level an HW job by the time you get there since Patch Quests don't give a significant amount of EXP even with the buff

boreal storm
#

Back to the question, what DC are you looking at anyway

umbral dune
#

If you are on free trial, the best practice for that bonus is DoL, DoH, they dont get the normal armoury bonus. But they are best to level up together, which gonna be a chore rather than an enjoyment

ocean sonnet
#

I didn't think about DoH/DoL, they get double exp too? If yes I could use that (I would like to level up them sooner or later)

boreal storm
#

Data center

umbral dune
#

Also, i never try but can free trial transfer though, even new world cost no fee, one of the condition i remember is to have active sub, and no way they can achieve that

ocean sonnet
#

Oh, I'll play on Light (EU)

narrow jay
#

No, I do not believe Free Trial can transfer worlds due to the active subscription requirement.

boreal storm
#

you can’t transfer if you have road to 80 active either

umbral dune
#

So it's still there huh, but hey you are free trial, creating new character is not that bad

ocean sonnet
#

Btw thanks a lot for the advices guys

ebon nebula
#

any big implications? i dont want to devote myself to ala mhigo cuz i wanna do my own thing, although i want to still help and be friends with widdy

boreal storm
#

No

ebon nebula
#

saying no just makes him say" i pray you will change ur mind" and then it asks me again 😭

#

you literally cant say no

boreal storm
#

But it has no big implications, it’s just like the other guild text boxes

ebon nebula
#

ah ok

modest igloo
#

the game does a good job of saying "this is an actual decision" when it happens

#

which is like, twice

#

and never in msq

ebon nebula
#

ahh i see

#

also, it says on websites that ill unlock flying in the main base game areas when i do the quest, that still the same?

#

not gonna bother if i have to do the aether current thing for these areas

boreal storm
#

This quest no, you get it from beating 2.0

ebon nebula
#

yeah in the future i think

#

at lvl50

modest igloo
#

all the post arr areas work like the HW areas

#

gotta find the currents and do the quests
