What else are you gonna spend aphorisms on
It's either that or powerlevel a bunch of alt jobs to 90 and start kitting them out, or accept that you overcap those tomestones and it's okay that that happens.
or, you know, buy mats with them and sell them on the mb
You can also check when you list them to see how frequently they move.
Stockpile all the tome gear for the desynth cap increase in 6.2?
So I got the DRK way back and is at lvl31 but I guess I got rid of its gear... is there a NPC I can go grab the Starter gear for the Job again?>
Yes any of the vendors in the ARRcities
any1 have a recommended eureka guide
It only gives you a weapon, go buy from arr zones
Hell the weapon isn't even unique either, go buy that from the arr zones too
k ty
They don't sell greatswords in arr zones
You can buy the starting sword in the 3 starting cities
vindication!
Well the repair guy in the ishgard in sells greatswords
Can I unsync the Alexander raids and still get springs?
No
Is there any faster way....
Zadnor if it's populated
Do zadnor for the fate items bare minimum
Finish off with raids
Alex raids are pretty fast to begin with so it’s not a big deal
I'm literally doing all of this for a pair of kunai glam..
Delu Reg, weapons quests.. all to look cool as a ninja
Funny :)
That said, that step is a one off if you want multiple shb relics
It wouldn't be so bad... but 30 pieces? Smh
180
One of the objectives with all the relics but eureka is too help keep older content alive
The shb steps are really tame
Laughs in eureka
Does anyone know a way i can just get a simple pair of kunai glam that doesn't require me to waste hours of my life
I just want to look cool as a ninja
:/
Find different knives?
Insert any crafted primal weapon
!iglam sandungs lux
!iglam Molybdenum Daggers
Bro, I literally just want
And craftable
If you want a specific glam put in the effort for it
Small kunai
We can not help with that
there is none
Back to the glam grind I guess
because kunai arent meant to be used in hand to hand combat lol
!glam tsukuyomi's kunai
Kunai is also a general term
Nah not my style
And those types of anime kunai were not used the way they're used in anime
Name is not specific to that one design
here, all ninja arms, go look thru em
@solemn jewel ty!
!iglam Blade's Subtlety
hes already going for that one
i have the matte version, it's as accurate as the generic kunai as it gets
which is really funny
And the one he's ranting about
yeahhhh
Blades subtlety is gorgeous...
i don't think you can really win with the exact design you want while also not doing the grind
The green is honestly hideous imo

!iglam replica matte blade's subtlety
!iglam matte replica blade's subtlety
:(
When switch jobs my hb4 does not change only 1-3hb changes to preset for that job.... is there away to have hb4 change aswell?
unshare it in character config
Was driving me crazy
You should only need 3 bars for your skills
Well in the latter case they’d want it to be shared
I'm doing a square layout x4 with sprint/tp/return ect on the 4th
Then yeah, you want that to be shared
Since all jobs are gonna use those
👍
where can I go for tech support to get the game installed?
Have you considered #952326072542847016
it is listed under Non-FFXIV ...
yup
Cuz it can extended to driver issues
and other PC bs
whats more Rare twintania mount or gold mekoshi
Irrelevant
There’s not really a rareness indicator
They're not comparable
then who own
Ones gil, ones recruit a bunch of ppl
most
Both are easy to get
Ff14collect

is it allowed to use Steam link to play ffxiv in my phone?
why would it be not allowed 
i just discovered steam link today and its awesome
We don't pay your sub REEEEEEE
it's a steam thing
idk it souds sus lol
And if you say third party tool I'm blocking you
I’m more surprised it even runs
why would it not run it's literally just streaming
I use iwegaw pwowogwowons
It's the same as any other remote play tool
I'm boutta use it for raiding
lmk how it goes
mobile gaming
is there any setting where i can disable or hide the debuffs applied on bosses by other party members? it gets cluttered and makes it hard to keep up with the ones i applied
yes but its not recommended if youre going to do endgame content
in character config iirc
thanks
Your debuffs are always first and have a green number fyi
Where is the best place to sell items that you gain by beating up monsters (I'm on free trial so market isn't there... or wait till I get to start paying)?
How to hide mentor icon?
In mentor roulette you dont
In over world?
Edit your search info
Ah thanks
if I have like... 30 rock salt... can I bulk-craft them into table salt?
or is it 1 at a time
Quick synthesis is all that you can do for “bulk” crafting
Also like if you don’t need that much table salt, I wouldn’t even bother
🤷♂️
First carft bonuses will level you faster
also you get like 3 per
will job gear last me long enough to get a full set of 70 tomestones i have 143 tomestones currently and wanted to try running this part ofvthe story with reaper
not sure if i should go grind for tomestones before doing so
If you never do more msq then yeah
The first dungeon in post msq will very very likely ilvl lock you for post stormblood
Also no accessories
so grinding tomestones before post stb then?
If you really want to use reaper
will i need the full set or just the weapon legs body and accories
If you’re gonna use it in ShB yes get the full set eventually
but how much should i have before continuing at all
since post stb will give me quite a few tomestones
Accessories are the absolute minimum you need as a fresh reaper
how long until 6.2
sweet
I was expecting bitching, this is a pleasant surprise
i thought i didn’t have enough time to clear p4s before then
Major patches are on a 4 month cycle
plus i’m tranna start the new ult
I mean you can still clear it after 6.2
6.1 was april
can anyone link me the leveling guide?
!faq altlvlguide
+2 weeks for summer vacation and winter holidays
the ult definitely but i try to make a goal to clear the tier before each new one
ty @boreal storm
that’s right i forgot they added time to the old patch cycle
i think that’s good though
6.15 is coming soonish
what’s gonna be in that
With hildi, tribal quests, tataru grand endeavor and some other goodies
ahhh looking forward to tataru and the tribal quests
haven’t even started hildibrand yet XD
Boooooo
i will i willll
When does one start unlocking hard trials
Pray return to the waking sands
After ARR?
Also finish 2.0
EVERYTHING is locked behind main story progress
I won't be able to take Bahamut's gear into next expansion
Finish 2.0 isn't even the hard part
;-;
It's the patches
Glamours exist
Fair.
Also baha gear isn't that special
Since replica baha gear is better
Same stats + dyable
What's replica again
Also they should be decently cheap as of late
And market board able
well what's the difference
Is one crafted-
^

No
potd?
Or you can just buy them from the market board
Look it doesn't matter
You don't need to bother getting baha gear since it's barely better than ironworks
And again glamours exist
that's what I'm getting it for
And stats wise it'll be out of date in hw
Are the nier raids post shadowbringers?
they require the main scenario quest "shadowbringers" complete, yes
but don't require any msq beyond that to do
That’s bozja
Ah
only eden and bozja have post shb requirements
And the trials need 5.2 msq I believe
ah, yea the weapon trials require 5.2
Is there a suit that's not Best Man's Jacket or Scion's jacket?
mogstation item
Which?
The butler glam
Cuz apparently, I have to attend this ff14 wedding and I have to wear something nice.
Idt the butler one would slide in that event
Also the manderville suit
People wear vests to a wedding?? I thought they always have a jacket.
Not just a vest
I usually wear a suit. Vest is worn under, then dress shirt
sorry, the Novice mentors are busy, i am standing by the Whorleater entrance. so, when i click on it, i just click on the square Whorleater (hard) like the main scenario quest says. then i wait for 7 real people to show up and the rest is automatic to put us in the Raid or whatever it is?
Just wait to get queued up
all my NPC stoped until patch 6.5 or something
my dude you're still in 2.x
but yes, NPCs don't exist for 8 man instances yet
ok, wait, but first click on the square and then click join
That is called queing
yes select the duty you're trying to enter and wait for duty finder to find the actual players
You're waiting for people to join
You’ve definitely done it before now also
for studium deliveries can you do the quest for each DoH/DoL? or is it the same as crystarium deliveries
Same as crystarium
same as crystarium
Literally identical
I see, thank you
And it’ll be the same for 7.0’s version of it
👍 I like it
i saw this on a video how do i get the numbers like this?
plugin
its a plugin?
What do you mean by the numbers tho, because it’s like that normally
i never seen it like that before its on the party side
ahhh i see thanks
Anyone remember the place where you can see 2 sunflowers
I've been here before, but forgot the exact place
sunflower plot ?
yeah a place where there are 2 piece of sunflower
I forgot, I saw it once in Yoshi-P Stream, It's a memorial of something
What are the things that I can do solo to have fun with as level 90 player?
u sure its sunflower + not dandelions ?
ah yes it's dandelion ._.
I’m a trial player but want to upgrade to full game. I have a code from a friend for the ‘recruitment’. But there’s no option to ‘enter recruitment code’.
Does that no longer exist or am I missing something?
According to support centre it’s meant to be here in the service account dashboard.
You will enter the recruitment code after you upgrade to the full game.
upgrade to full game, then pay for 1 months sub
then you will be able to
enter your friend recruitment code
The recruitment code is basically you saying "hey this person got me into the game", and then they get rewards.
So you have to be a paying member first.
Otherwise you could farm trial accounts for it
Although this says you CANNOT enter it after a sub has been established? Thanks for your help guys 🙂
do you remember where iut is? lol
Ok so:
- Buy game for £30
- Put in code
- Get the sub
oh thought you can do only do that after you pay your first month sub lol
i dont but it sounds cool .. was it a memorial for RL friend ?
I have no idea, I forgot what Yoshi-P said in the stream
but he flew from Idyllshire to this place
FFXIV online complete edition or the starter edition 😅😅
Do most people go for the complete?
I’m about level 40 MSQ in ARR…
If you’re buying the game for the first time, you get 30 days for free
!faq buy
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).
Complete is the same as starter + endwalker
Might as well get complete if you can afford it
I bought complete, but I finished HW when I bought it
Sounds like I should get complete
but yeah, you need to pay your first month sub before entering your recruitment code
Tbh I want the collectors edition to get the obese chocobo
But I can’t lay £85 for a fat bird
yeah, you can do that
You can upgrade it later
it's called complete collector edition
or yeah, you can upgrade seperately later
obese chocobo is from ARR collector edition
and you will not pay 85 Euro for that
I love obese chocobo
why use Euro, your acount is EU?
i got that with the complete ed. hmm, gonna click on it and see what it looks like
its obese!
It’s soooo cute
Preliminary studies show that use of the Fat Chocobo mount promotes cooperation among people. To test this, over 200 people on Excalibur joined together to build a bridge
and a tower
and a wall
and a train
and a smiley face
music - Birds and Bees by Patrick & Eugene https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzCpBoxF2gc
fat chocobo bridges, trains...
😂😂😂
mine actually calls it Fat Chocobo, now its on my hotbar
and yes, totally cute
lol, both pups are captivated by the video
so umm i ddont have a fat choco, but i can upgrade like now to get it ?
If you want the collectors one yes
from your mgostation account
you can see the choice of buying ARR collector edition
ooo for 19.99 get it all
It’s 20 for 1 expansion upgrade
cool didnt know that ... yay
Meaning if you wanted every one that’s currently available: $100
sometimes yeah, they discount it if the complete collector edition gone on sale
The digital upgrade does go on sale every now and then
They become 50% off sometimes
Last time was when 6.0 was getting close
nice, ill wait even tho i-must-have !!
are you the right job
Hmmm
Let me check
Yep
Still nothing
A glitch ?
Oh
Perhaps there is an order to the quests
There isnt
I can't complete one without doing the prerequisite quest?
You can turn in the 3 quests in any order
0.O
You need both items it asks for
I have them
At 30 each
30 of all 6 different items
180
For 180 items total
I remember crashing the market for the E3 orchestrion that day
how many minutes do you have to wait after repeated failed password inputs?
About 30 minutes usually, but if you go through the password reset process, it will remove the timer so you can login again
So I finally decided to give Eureka a go after stumbling into the area late one night months ago and giving up after being overwhelmed by all of the text in my tired state, how do I proceed?
Get a protean crystal as she asks
How do I do that?
kill something
Which randomly drops from regular mobs
ok, thanks
What does the "a" mean in the maintenance done yesterday for 6.11a mean?
I was assuming it's a two part patch since we haven't got any notes
Some other games add letters for super minor patches
Like next week will be b idk
We never get prelims for anything other than major patches
I thought it was already done though
Nope
6.11a will just be like, minor hotfixes and the housing update
It was maintenance to prep for patch prep?
I thought it was yesterday for some reason then
We've like never had a letter patch before
At least in vast recent memory
Making sure housing stuff is fully working is the main logical guess
We have but they've never been anything important afaik
whats the command for BLM levelling rotations?
!faq blmleveling
thx]
possibly a silly question - I recently used the world transfer service to switch worlds (switched from brynhildr to siren) but after logging into my account it's not showing Siren as a world option on the character selection screen and I'm not seeing any options to add it. It's just showing me a random selection of worlds from Crystal
ah never mind I figured it out
(in case anyone else is oblivious like me, you have to quite and then switch data centers in the main menu)
am i just using bad presets or is the adof function of gshade really bad in combat
if something gets to close to the camera i basically can't see anything
it probably is bad then
there's different presets for combat and screenshots
and some all-rounders
why would you use adof in combat anyway
but most of the screenshot-specific ones are basically unplayable
the adof youre using probably has auto adjust when you want a set dof
it's just i've tried several and adof has always either hurt my eyes or fucked me over at bad times due to something getting in front of the camera so i usually just disable it on any presets i use
ty unchecking autofocus then adjusting focus depth fixed it
are any of the normal alexander raid loot good
no
It's outdated gear
They can make for nice glamour pieces
i mean technically the garuteed drop is useful for the relic quest
hey q, is the battle log an accurate way to tell if a skill was buffed/unbuffed?
Ive been trying to fit Rising Phoenix into RoF in the standard opener but it often barely just misses it, despite being at 1.92 gcd already. is this the fps issue i heard about? im playing under 30fps sadly
but you'd be better off just doing all your roulettes every day for a few days
ok
Also you’re using truth of forests on a miner
nothing wrong with that
lets you keep an eye out for legendary/timed nodes while you're mining shit
i think fuil means it's the wrong skill since it's botanist's
wth is my character spaming ice 4 whenever i open gpose
It was your last used skill
no
Sit and jump to remove
wait it lets you see botanist's nodes on miner?
Yes
i did not know that, good to know
i heard having your sps to high is bad is that true
why does rdm hate it
They don't benefit from it and it throws off mana generation
aren't you supposed to get into your melee phase asap
You want melee combos under buffs
You can snag 2 with a natural built and manafaction
Then there's the forbidden 3 melee combo to get under pots
the gain from more sps isn't enough more valuable than the other substats, in addition to destroying alignment with ogcds
hmm i see that makes sense
rdm wants 2.5s because they want as close to a flat number as possible so you can use your ogcds without delaying them
Depending on the fight sometimes you want a slightly lower gcd, but I don't think I've seen below 2.48
yeah you don't want anything that diverges too hard from that
2.48 is definitely comfiness instead of alignment afaik
I think it was lower for uwu, but I might be conflating with dnc's new 2.46 optimum
27th

26th rather
How do get people to play with me in Delubrum Reginae. Just queueing normally usually just put me solo in the fight
Party finder or discord
Do I have to say it's Delubrum cuz I dont see how to select it as the duty for PF
expedition category
Adventure foray
When in the story do characters like Alphinaud get new voices?
Heavensward
Basically everyone gets new VAs with Heavensward, not counting characters who get new VAs due to death of the actor
Only Aymeric, Midgardsormr, and I think Estinien keep their VAs
ARR was we must get a game out so go with what we have...
is the only use for Tomestone of Aphorism (the blue ones) is to get ilvl 570 gear?
the unlimited tome, mostly, except you can also buy crafting materials for the 580 gear
i see, thanks
And augmenting classical
What is best practice for entering the Endwalker normal raid without a FC / static? Queue through duty finder or party finder? Do people pug this content?
Que
Anything not extreme or higher content you que for
Since it's casual content and easy as hell
Extremes and up is when the game starts trying to kill you
Savage is the raid difficulty
haha. I did ex1/2 yesterday, looking forward to ex3 when I get the gearscore for it
Ex1 was chaotic, Ex2 I actually understand since someone took the time to explain it to us
haurchefaunt
i am new to the game and just finished EW few days ago. Is it hard to find a static of new people like me trying to learn end game content?
Is this the right site to download GShade from?
https://gposers.com/gshade/
Making sure this isn't a site/tool pretending to be said tool

yes
when do we get the 1st EW gear for poetics?
Pog, tysvm uwu
when 7.0 releases
ah darn ok
So, I am doing boznaj, and it says that I need "memories of the dying", do I need to get those with the same job as the relic I am working on? Or any job will do?
Any
Alright, the quest was on red when I changed jobs so I wasn't sure
Gotcha, thanks
My apologies wrong chat
The quest "Ye of little faith" where is Alboise, the guy i'm meant to go to, in the "storeroom" upstairs or downstairs or somewhere else?
I've looked about where his marker is and he's not visible...
oh this npc. go under the building
Ah under...
Completely missed the door that side and thought it was upstairs...(you go next to be told to go somewhere else...)
ya i missed that too the firs time. spent a few minutes wandering lol
I just watched a guy on a chocobo blow past me on mine... I thought mounts all ran the same speed?
They are, but there is also mount speed boosts that you can get
By doing the story
its like... a skill?
1st tier for ARR thru SB zones are gotten via the msq, 2nd tier for those zones are from hunt currencies
for shb and ew zones, there is only 1 tier and they are gotten via bicoloured gems
You just do the story, and the game goes “mount speed go up”
Just do story and you'll get the speed and Eventually flight which is max speed
It’s even tracked in the travel menu
k, well ty
so... is eroza a good website to use? like... trying to find where to get pixie plums but... says coerthas area but not seeing it here
You have a gathering log
Use it
oh, no doubt? neat, ty
what causes the sound bug to occur?
where everything just becomes mute
How bad of an idea is it to participate in 'A Finale Most Formidable' as a 74 SMN?
Oh I got oneshot so that's how bad
¯_(ツ)_/¯
its been in pvp for like forever
i dont do pvp, been getting it outside of that
I’ve had that sometimes. It just fixes it itself once it happens
Will your Crystaline Conflict rank reset at the start of the new season?
Sounds like it does, yes.
ok thanks
are the echo and the blessing of light synonymous?
No
one of the characters said that only those with the blessing of light may resist tempering but doesnt the echo allow you to resist it?
Yes But they’re not the same thing
is there a shortcut to split items?
Ew spoilers ||The echo is memories of Amaurot etched into the soul in essense. The blessing is Hydalyen/venat's magic ward to prevent aetherical corruption||
No
ty
for my 1st ARR relic, is it easier to go thru the entire pipeline for 1 weapon, or 1 stage at a time for all?
There's no 1 time steps so I don't think it matters
Though I think there's some steps that share the progression method?
easier to just focus on getting thru the whole chain first
alt relics get a bit easier because you have a few things unlocked that you can pick up and work on while in early stages
atmas tho is one of thsoe you can freely farm
thislil be a while
for all the ones you wannt
so if you want all like 10 or however many there are ARR jobs, you can farm all of the atmas needed first time aroundd
since i can do these wheenver, might just come back to it for the other 9
just have to keep in mind, that to get atmas you need a zenith equipped
Oh yeah rip
Also you really wouldn’t want to anyway, the main farm for anima doesn’t work for zodiac
And zodiac’s farm does like nothing for anima
also, is there any reason to hold the final completed non replica relic?
Was thinking of aurum Vale speed runs
ARR relics require you to either have the zeta on hand or have turned it in for the first step of anima
so unless you buy all of the replicas before tossing the zeta, you need to keep or turn it in
ah so basically just use the actual ARR zeta for starting anima, then just get replicas
neat use of it
so my wife bought endwalker package through steam and its 'creating local game files' for like... 15+ minutes atm -- she had the 'trial', liked it, upgraded... but like... is it stuck or should we keep waiting?
complete edition?
then it should work, have you tried reinstalling it?
she should have got keys?
uh
yea you get a product key
where does that show up
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" ...
cd keys on steam
kk
yeah its probably a key issue then
right clicking the game in library = cd keys
so like, just update mog station then
It’s not, I had the same problem
Refer to what I just posted
👍
its not a steam issue though its a launcher issue
I had that exact thing happen to me, I did what was in the post, and the “creating local game files” actually progressed
that worked ty Cerb
ty as well Fuil
the wife is super tired so... that was the path of least resistance lol
Are mass combat macros a thing in this game? Like for example on WoW I could make a macro to cast like 7 oGCD spells simultaneously, is that possible here? Or at the very least can I make designated target macros, like to first target a specific party member, then follow up with cure? Thanks for your time.
absolutely not
macros are inherently made bad by the devs so you cant use them in combat
You can have macros target people but getting them to actually cast is UGGHHH
the only combat macros that have some use is for specific few skills
like shirking the other tank
So not even >target (party member) >cast cure?
no
because 1. if theyre out of range it wont even do anything
- if you try to use any other action it cancels the macro
- theres a 50% chance it wont even go off for whatever reason
and on and on
Also queueing macros isn’t a thing
like i said the devs made them shit on purpose
Yikes lol
Yes all those lines are necessary
Because macro shit
even with those lines its still slower than the regular shirk button
Exactly
So how long is the maintenance gonna be?
Four hours according to Lodestone
When does rpr get fun? Just hit 80 and its mad snoozefest
If you dont like it now, you wont ever
All it gets past 80 is just a few more upgrades
Aw
i mean i liked rpr at 90
it just gets a few more weaves and your enshroud ender
but it got boring for me after a while cause it doesnt weave a lot and has low apm
It's still very bland
Looks cool, but way too simple to perform and feels like a very slow mch
You only ever do two positionals back to back every 60s for gluttony so it's just smile and wave
Sam used to be that perfect blend of busy but not chaotic like nin. Goddammit yoship
Do take note that in harder fights, reaper has more leeway in when to do their skills
Because of how their gauge works, only need 50 on either to do stuff, but the max is 100
I suppose part of the fun is figure out what you can delay without wasting resources
Double enshroud is standard alignment so you have to plan those at least
is it gonna be the usual around 4 hours maintenance?
either I'm blind or the duration isn't mentioned. So I'm assuming 4 hours?
[Date & Time]
May 24, 2022 6:00 to 10:00 (GMT)
May 24, 2022 7:00 to 11:00 (BST)
May 24, 2022 16:00 to 20:00 (AEST)
- Completion time is subject to change.
damit 4 hours
so yes it's 4 hours if nothing bad happens
but could also end early
so probably best to check lodestone/game sometimes
i c
@remote lintel Thanks for y'alls help earlier with the macros, got pressed for time trying to do msg dungeons with my FC before maint.
Any patch notes for this maint?
Nothing yet. They’ll be posted to the Lodestone first though.
Is it cheaper to craft 580 classical gear or buy them from market board?
We can’t really answer that
But crafting yourself is cheaper 90% of the time
it's a matter of time investment, do you want to spend time gathering/crafting, or just buying them
Cool
Then its worth it to spend my 3mil in leveling crafters from 60 to 90
you can also just farm out 580 with normal raids as they are unlocked
crafting is literally free if you gather everything
Is it worth it??
^
you dont really need to spend that much to level crafting if you dont mind taking it slow
By taking it slow you mean gathering?
Only reason I level crafting was because at first buying a set of gear broke my gil. Now I do it because it's still free. I also tend to avoid the market board as much as humanly possible since I might as well be buying the gear I'm trying to make if I'm gonna spend the same amount buying 10 of a single material I need anyhow.
we don’t pay your sub etc etc
It’s your choice what you do
gathering your own mats and like, getting the "free" scrip gear
Cool
spending gil is just a shortcut to getting things done faster
Btw what did u mean by "we dont pay your sub" i heared it a lot but never knew what it meant??
its a meme
sometimes there are players where you ask them to do something, they stubbornly respond with "you dont pay my sub". its a thing in any MMO not just XIV
And in that same vein, we can’t tell you what “is worth it”. Because that’s your decision
should i do eureka before shb?
Eureka is a long grind for glam
eureka has very little bearing on msq, barring a few references in endwalker. so you arent missing anything big by doing it later
it's still a grind but, it's not that bad nowadays, compared to when it was at launch
save it for later imo
i think you have to hand it in to one of the npc's at the sanctum
actually that might be the ring, not sure about bracelet
Mhmmm I will try and drag it out
empyreal arrow is unlocked at 54, whats the poweful shot? I can't seem to find it? another name for heavy shot..?
These are PVP actions
Yeah its just pvp
Wait did you have your wedding scheduled during maintenance?
No Fruil; it didn't work out; so bye.
At least it's not as messy as an IRL marriage
- cheaper
i read in patch notes that it's not kicking after 30 minutes anymore? whats the new kick timer then?
or is it just not going to kick at all?
No afk kicks in the over world
10 min instance kicker is permanent
type !maint in #kupo-bot-spam
Ty
2 minutes apparently.
lies
I see people typing !me in #kupo-bot-spam, is there a way to link your character to your discord then...?
do !help and look through the commands, its almost definitely listed there how to do it
Doing !me without something linked also says how
how efficient is hoh leveling past level 70?
not very, you want to go into Bozja once you hit 71
where can i trade the regional tokens to get the corresponding folklore books?
which one?
ah ty
wait wut isnt this 20 mins
oh oh

Heya im a sprout, i've been wanting to do POTD solo, just got to floor 11 if i die on 11 will i need to go back to floor 1?
Thanks
I had an old acc but i didnt play much. Came with pre order dlc. Is it worth retrieving?
unless you're going for the title, you can start at floor 11 yes
Because i plan to transfer server and it would cost me extra money?
Ah okay thanks, im only doing it for the weapons Tmog
tmog?
glamour
yes it would, cost you 18 usd to do
ah ok
sorry forgot what it was called
only if the que for dungeons is 15+ mins
Are those baron eq and black chocobo worth anything?
pretty sure thats just stuff you get from msq
you dont have to spend gil on gear either, thats what poetics are for lol
Pre-order or collector's stuff should be account-wide no?
Preorder..
I already made the character in ton a year ago
Played for a week got too busy
and dungeons are still faster, and give you gear
And because i signed up on psn i signed up in the usa instead of me being in my actual country
Only factor are the preorder items.. If its worthless im just making a new acc
You'd have to buy the game again if you make a new account tho?
No
i find sqaudrons pretty meh post 50, df is the way to go for leveling post 50 pretty much
There's a free trial which includes the same content as base game
cant even do like half the leveling dungeons anyways with them
But you still need to buy base game + endwalker (for expansions) if you wanna get past hw
Soooo its like subs + base game if i want to do a new acc?
If all you want to do is change server, just make a new char
I just wanna know if the pre order dlc items are worth antthinf
Plus is it possible to email square enix change my acc details?
that's up to you to decide, not like you can sell them
Hmmm oo ok thx i got the answer. Appreciate u letting me know about the base
Does anyone have knowledge about oce and jpn servers?
Like how many jp speakers? 50%?
How many people compare tonberry to oce ravana?
Server demographics are not released from SE's side, and any reports from other parties are suspiciously inaccurate at best.
But there ie is a server limit right. That is why we gotta queue wehn its full
There is a limit to "active logins", yes.
oce dc will have probably less player as jpn servers since its new, not rly the que is mostly to reduce server stress
But it's quite high.
alright great thanks
one more thing to confirm
if i buy my game on ps4 i can ply on pc yea
oh no...
no and yes, you would also need to buy a pc licences on the same account you use for ps4
All one account
so base game i gotta get again on pc?
If you buy for multiple, but separate licences to play on each
And dlc
By dlc I mean expansions not say, that maid outfit you definitely didn't buy by accident
how much does FF XIV cost monthly
Considering time of day there's eu numbers
!faq subprice
These are out of date come to think of it
The max characters per server restriction is gone
so i bought my game on ps4. registered there. now if i want play my acc on pc
i have to buy the game on pc an resub?
You need to buy a pc license
It's all one sub
But the platform licences are separate
... doesnt make sense tho the way it is
Also you only get one platform if you're on free trial
Maintaining compatability across 3 platforms isn't cheap
i activated my acc when it came with the game
Okay so you have a ps4 license
but be sure to check your account region so you dont buy it for the wrong region, if your mogstation account is us you need a us pc code etc.
This is normal licencing
You can play the game on ps4/5 if you get that upgrade
Your account is not licensed to play on pc
You try log on on a pc launcher and it'll give you das boot
hmmm bad choice to buy it on ps4
It's just like... you own a game for PS4/PS5, but then you want to play it on Steam. You have to buy it again on Steam to play it there.
You'll get another 30 days of sub as consolidation so
Other than losing all progress already made
i only played like for a week
so its fine
but i think the starter edition is worth
im just paying 5$ for the licesnse
and antoher free 30 days i guess?
tyhen again, what r the real drawbacks of a free player up to 60?
doesn't seem like theres much restrictions unlike wow
Social restrictions, gil cap
is the auto logout completely gone or is the timer just extended
Auto logout is removed
ohhh this is bad man
when i signed up i put my account under usa
lol
do you think i can request square enix?
for a change in th account details backdoor?
Hey
Just wonder if anyone know if yo-kai watch event will ever come back?
Probably no
Yo-kai isn't a SE property, and they had to jump through a ton of hoops to run it in the first place.
or just go drinking with the people again
for endwalker should i spend white scrips on getting the folklore books first?
or is there something else i should spend on?
there's nothing else to spend whites on at 90
other than materia to sell
Eventually SE will probably just don't care enough to do another collab
Last garo series was in 2018, just saying
ah okay, which one should i buy to sell then
whatever is priced higher on your market board
👍 ty
How do i know if i can pull more as a tank?
Are you at a wall? If no you can pull more
Does your healer have a functioning brain? You can pull more
If you're still alive
Simply because you cannot pull if you're dead
Wall pulls are standard and expected post 50
What about in dungeons before 50?
You can do at least 2 groups at once
i tend to do two groups unless my healer says w2w
yup my old acc is fucked. i signed up in us region due to the blcokage previously
2 packs is pretty much what w2w becomes later too
Us account wouldn't have gotten you past the sale block
i have no idea but i was signed up with US
i saw singapore nearest to me now..
but i think it didnt have that option last time
best part is SE explicitly state that cannot change lol
when i was just about to email them
Hey guys, i got a raiding/PVE question.
you often have a main tank and a off tank.
usually the main tank has the enenimity ability up
and the off tank has it down right?
No
The off tank can turn their stance on after the opener to guarantee 2nd in aggro
As there are some mechanics that require it and it's fucking braindead to do it
also makes provoke and shirk a bit more consistant since you both have similar aggro
And it's useful on the off-chance that the MT dies so that the boss doesn't go off on the next highest aggro, with that being a dps or healer.
Got it, that makes alot of sense, thanks folks
And toggling it takes a valuable weave space, which some tanks can't afford later in fights if they need to turn it on in burst
Noooo God, no God please no
well, this is why i ask the big brain people in this server :D
are keepers of the moon and seekers of the sun the same in customization?
they have different details and colour schemes
and naming conventions
i.e moon cats have fangs but round eyes, sun cats have no fangs but cat eyes
is there a cooldown after i leave a free company before i join another one?
24hrs
might be shorter than that now, i was able to do it in 12 at least
i know its 24h for MAKING a new FC
Oh yeah that's correct.
as far as I can tell, no
what's the skill(s) that make warrior so op?
i get FFA is the loot mode in pf listings, but what does it mean in the context of like savage loot? will I still have the same chances to get gear/book/whatever (only just cleared P1S last reset, no idea how savage loot works with the chests, books all that)?
you will always get the book after kill, and FFA means you can try to roll on all the gear that drops, depends just on your luck if you get it
ah okay, so intead of need/greed based on roles its just 1 single roll or pass?
ffa means free for all so you can need all drops and with luck even get all
no, you roll normally, one by one
ah, i see, tyty!
It really depends what you mean by OP
they have a lot of self healing skills, which makes them pretty self reliant if a healer dies, or something
think i asked this a while ago, but theres no reason to hold the makai gear in inventory (excluding accs) since it's calamity obtainable right?
so armor sets/weps sepcifically
There isn't one, really. The skill people tend to refer to is Nascent Flash/Bloodwhetting, which heals the player every time a GCD hits an enemy, and which applies for each enemy struck, making it very powerful in mobs.
But the game's high-end content doesn't have massive amounts of mobs in it, so the "overpowered self-sustain" exists only in dungeons and in overworld stuff. And notably, Warriors have less in the way of physical damage reduction skills as compared to other tanks, so it's basically just ... every 25s you're too angry to die, and the amount of damage you're taking doesn't matter too much.
its added to calamity salvager after you get the title
but after that sure you can discard
cool just making sure
only the pld shield you cant rebuy from the salvager, so if you got your titles/achievements you can throw most away
i mean, since the emperors new shield is the same thing...eh?
It’s the OG emperors shield and has a cooler name /s
Is there any way to make the game give a desktop notification or something when a queue pops? I have just gotten the duty abandonment penalty because I don't enjoy staring at my screen for 15 minutes doing nothing
You can have it play system sounds when the game isn’t focused
Pretty sure that’s in system config
Why is the update on ps4 57 gb?
did you upgrade to full game or bought an expansion?
if yeah its downloading the rest and if not something bugged and it needs to redownload the game
it's bugged then, ty
Hi, please is any guide or advice what can i sell or not? Mostly mean craft materials and seafood... i have full inventory and dont really know what can i keep.
Are you currently using it or plan to in the immediate future? Keep, otherwise toss
Everything is easy to reobtain
If an item has a “shop selling price” listed then that means a vendor somewhere sells it
And usually means the item is pretty worthless if the listed price is low
With no Golden Week sale, I hear there's a good chance that FFXIV sees a summer sale like June-ish? I'm ready for retainer inventory and market board and all my mains are coming up on 60...
anyone got any advice/a site for finding atma fates
alternately I will just level THM and finish crafting this summer
Open your map
All fates give atmas
There's not a special fate for them
Just be in the right zone for the atma you need
which is better small house or apartment?
I mean better is subjective but a small house has more space if that's what you mean
can you do gardening in apartment?
hello all, im having a hard time finding a free company.. is this a common issue?
!faq communityfinder
it's common to try an FC and leave till you find another one
Finding a free company is easy. Finding one you like is another thing entirely.
me personally prefer an FC with less than 50 members
maybe because my world is new low pop?
Unlikely
also pick an FC that live close to your area
how do I make my own pf listing/group FFA loot?
also all NA DC servers are usually crowded
in JP it's usually L>R for savage, just say the loot is FFA in your PF description @cosmic sleet
Your datacenter selection says you're on Primal, which has no new servers. The only new servers are on Materia (OCE), and even there there's a ton of FCs.
oh i dont have to change any loot rule or anything? also idk what L>R means
"Left side > Right side"
Left to Right, if you got something, you leave the instance
^
primal / Lamia
ohhhhhh i see cheers!
What's a good magic class for someone that started as Lancer
