sorry to disturb the flow of conversation but im trying to level reaper from 72 to 80
my current method is:
-do all of the roulettes
-spam the highest level dungeon available to me
-have well fed 2x through the entire level grind
-do job quests in between
- FC exp buffs when possible
however im slowly losing my will to live with this method as ive leveled more than 3 jobs to high level this way, its tedious, boring, and it takes forever due to dps queue times
is there a better way to level up without going insane?

I’m level 50 BRD and using the gear I got from doing level 50.

Are they doing trial or paid?
Actually I think there was a bot command for a step by step

I'm trying to get them into the trial
so that they can get into mogstation to get the code in

Recruit a friend doesn’t do anything for trial players

while logged into their mogstation, it only stays on "Service account dashboard" and has the page for registering a service account that leads to buying the game or inserting a code

Are you sure you put in your info correctly?
Because even as a trial person you’d be able to see that
leaden ginkgo
I’m pretty sure I did
I’m not sure what to do here
I don’t know how they messed up their account this much
They tried to use One Time Password to login 20 times not realizing what that is and got locked out
I got them out and now their account is all screwy
Should they delete and recreate their square account? Trying to create a new FFXIV account just says “this email already has an FFXIV account” but it does this, it won’t work

I had to create an entirely new email a year ago to get my friend to be able to play

jade quartz

1 need beats 99 greed. If you want something, need on it.
Greed if you don’t really care, but you’ll take it if no one else needs it.

i'll just try to delete their square account and recreate it, I think their mogstation is screwed up somehow
I'm not sure if there's even an explanation for how this happened

Anyways, is it better to start the relic quest in Bozja and finish it in Bozja, or better to just take it to the HW areas?

i found the HW areas super strong with blue mage
cursive abyss
Huh, that's odd, why is Eureka oddly valued more than Bozja?
boreal storm
it isn't?
cursive abyss
cause of the money making?
faint flare
Cause eureka is more ass
Thus people do it less
But people want stuff still cause it looks cool
People do eureka just for elemental gear cause it's shiny

It dies at worms lament 1 with good dps
Just do mirrors and don't fuck up diamond frost much to not get those damage downs
Unless like everyone is Bis in a static setting
Then some damage downs are still fine and still skips it

Do a lot of people say "No, I am not mentally torturing myself with Savage Content for mounts" and just cheese it a few expansions later?

Most groups will wipe to double planets into towers if they're gonna wipe anywhere
Like ex2
lucid cloak
It has personal responsibility
So def harder than ex1
A lot of it you can follow group tho
But some are gonna be hard if youre relying on group for reads
You know how in ex1 for ||bird+snake+fire||, the safe spot is actually pretty small?
Being a few steps off on ||blue planets|| lead to the same problems

icy vault
primary gil-obtaining method for a level 60-ish person? I heard something about retainers being an excellent source once, so info on them too if possible?
lucid cloak
Have your retainers list stuff on marketboard
People are not gonna give you specifics because those are probably the markets they sell in
Find a niche, ideally with a decent profit margin or easy accessibility, hopefully good sale volume too
If you're willing to commit the time, identifying a niche on your market and then server hopping to other servers on your data center where that item sells cheap is good
There isn't really any "guaranteed market to easy riches" or everyone would use it
icy vault
stock market-esque exploitation in an MMORPG, how unprecedented
and here I thought it would consist of "oh just do this over and over and over and sell this"
lucid cloak
Ehh, the thing is gil doesn't provide a lot of material advantages
Besides getting glams to look fly as hell
Its mostly for the non-powerup stuff
obsidian patio
There’s also comparing prices of items on other servers compared to your server
icy vault
I just want furniture
obsidian patio
If their stuff is much cheaper than your stuff, buy it out and sell on your retainer
lucid cloak
Its not really stock market, more like "unregulated market with no cost of entry"
Hence the hilarity of being able to have max level crafters without doing a single craft
"Please give me this high quality godkiller sword"
"Alright"
one marketboard trip later
"Your HQ godkiller"
"You made this?"
"Yes"
"But it says LimsaKitty9000 on the handle"
"Its a pen name"
"Alright then"
Technically you need to craft the stormblood quest ones I guess

icy vault
and as far as there "ventures"?
warped nest
Venture are "quest" they can do
To bring you back stuffs
What they can bring back depends on their classes, and there are 4 distinction: combat (all dow/m), Miner, botanist, fisher
(retainers cannot take on crafting jobs)
icy vault
Don't you need a certain currency to assign them on ventures?
warped nest
Those are very easy to acquire
umbral dune
GC seal, 200 for 1 venture
warped nest
I believe some duty roulette can drop those too
But yeah, most of the time, you are gonna buy them from your grand company
umbral dune
Even leves reward but GC seal bigger than all other
boreal storm
Tribe quests give them, you can dump your extra wolf marks
warped nest
Oh, venture is also how you level up your retainer
Your retainer level is only meaningful in the context of doing higher level ventures
lucid cloak
The ventures are the cherry on top, most gil comes from the sale slots for the marketboard that retainers provide
warped nest
It doesn't affect anything else
icy vault
mhmm, mhmm
warped nest
If you just need the extra inventory, it is absolutely fine to just keep your retainer at lvl 1
lucid cloak
Say you notice on your server that like, idk, dandelions sell for decent gil and 50 people buy stacks of 20 a day
You can harvest them yourself and sell them, or if you have an adequately leveled and geared botanist retainer you send them off to collect dandelions

Hi guys i have a problem and im not sure if people here can help but here goes: I bought FF14 on Steam and played it religiously until Stormblood then stopped and uninstalled. I decided recently to come back and play again,
but when I tried to log in the launcher told me my account was compromised and I need to use my email to verify it. Well the thing is i'd just been logging on with my ID so I forgot the email I used (and I have like 15 emails) so I cant verify it. I tried contacting Square Enix support but it requires my account email :( I have lots of evidence to prove its my account including payment history from my bank account, I tried contacting the phone support but it was America only and Im in Australia. Idk what to do, I would really like to get back in the game :/
steep egret
search through your old emails to find which one registered the account
unless you deleted their emails
all email services have a search bar
ebon fossil
I did none of them have it
steep egret
can you login to mogstation?
ebon fossil
I think I used an email I dont remember, yes that is bs but i make a lot of throwaway emails
steep egret
tieing a paid game to a throwaway email, is a great way to lose it eventually
well to anything really
ebon fossil
I have the steam codes and screenshots of my character and also bank transactions where I have paid for subscriptions, also I know my ID and password, I just do not remember the email

ok, again, Can you login to mogstation?

What are the pros of having a Personal House
*Over* an FC House?
you can't do FC crafting with a personal iirc
but by having a personal you have full control of it IE: decorating etc.
that doesn't really matter if you have a 1 person FC house though
that said if you can afford both, by all means go for it
the nice thing about an FC is you can pool money to get a large / medium
since smalls are relatively cheap IE: 5 millish
did they say anything about bicolor gem stones in the new expansion?
IE: is it going to be a new currency or the same bicolor ones? I can't imagine bicolors are remaining the same since you'll be able to flash farm them with blue mage

Same

I know, but the rotations are tough on console since I use the R1 tab switching and usually the first tab is for main keys and second tab is for secondary/cooldown keys. But Paladin has so many main rotation keys that it overwhelms

I'm confused, I have two service accounts, one with steam, and another from the ...
I'd recommend contacting SE for help with that because they have required steam for all logins with steam keys and undoubtedly something may have broken 
I do ask you return to us with what they tell you so I can have it added to an FAQ, in the meantime it's time for me to flip the counter back to 0 for days since mogstation shenanigans has made me want to drink

oof
Steam won't allow me to refund FFXIV

yes, because FFXIV is exempt from the typical refund policy

Steam REPLACES PC when you redeem a STEAM key on a service account
A recent update to the STEAM version makes it so you have to link your Steam Account to your Mogstation
slate arrow
No, you added STEAM to your Second Service account
Which is and isn't the same it's dumb
Please contact SE support
slate arrow
(I swear, I'm going to start invoicing SE with this shit ass account management)
pliant viper
This is giving me a the confusion debuff if I was a pokemon
I wanted to try redeeming the key on my main account but
it somehow made it so it's a new service account
leaden ginkgo
You won’t be charged again until you add more time to it
So reactivate the recurring sub with remaining days will charge me on the day it'll renew instead of the day I reactivate?
slate arrow
it somehow made it so it's a new service account
You can't redeem the same key twice
Steam and PC are the same "slot" on mogstation
pliant viper
Er
I used my credit on the regular
and then steam one on mog station later
I never used the same CD Key
in that sense
slate arrow
And that's why you have two service accounts because you can't mix Steam keys and PC keys
pliant viper
I see...
slate arrow
In this case, PC means Anywhere But Steam
Since you already had a PC key, all you needed was to buy subscription time and you'd be good
pliant viper
So... Steam and PC are different server platforms?
obsidian patio
So reactivate the recurring sub with remaining days will charge me on the day it...
Depends on if your sub runs out when you add more days
slate arrow
This also means your PC service account is still inactive
slate arrow
So... Steam and PC are different server platforms?
ALL platforms play on the same servers
slate arrow
If you want to play on your steam account you will
Because your character is on Service Account 1 and Steam is Service Account 2
pliant viper
oh actually it's on my steam service account 2
I went into the steam game first at least
so it won't be as difficult to change characters
but I just wanted the ability to play with my steam cd key on the non-steam launcher
slate arrow
That's a big no no
pliant viper
if that even is a thing?
slate arrow
You can't anymore they "fixed" it
pliant viper
Oh...

if you insatlled both already
then you can delete one of them

use different folders
but the game is identical
Steam is in the steam apps folder

pliant viper
time to uninstall the non-steam one
slate arrow
Thank you doot
steep egret
uninstall whichever you dont want to use, the one that doesn't have the characters you want to play of course
otherwise its just a waste of space
pliant viper
Alright, it is done
I've got my answers I've at least wanted from Industrial, thank you for the info
steep egret
Steam vs non-steam, yeah is pretty pointless, there are some ppl who want to track their game time in Steam, but besides that and Achievements (i didn't even know ff14 on steam Had achievements) , the only other benefit would be being able to use Steam wallet to buy expansions and maybe subscription, not sure
IF you do go and buy the rest of the expansions, make sure you buy ON STEAM
steep egret
you cannot mix steam and PC at all
pliant viper
I'll be careful of that
steep egret
👍
pliant viper
I went here cause
I saw the issue
the moment I had 2 keys
and 2 services
which is...
madness
steep egret
yet another person gets affected by the stupidity that is buying FF14, thanks SE 😦

Like I said, Mogstation makes me want to drink

its so dumb, its likely because they outsource their storefronts, not sure if its just to SE's sales department, or a 3rd party

I have done that indeed
steep egret
say it was a mistake, and you already have an account
pliant viper
trying to get a refund on the service account 1
steep egret
happy for them to delete it and take it back
pliant viper
cause I barely got it
steep egret
since you have no use for it
pliant viper
well they don't need to completely refund me
steep egret
try and justify it logically, hopefully they listen
pliant viper
at least like
transfer funds to my other service
if you get it
they get to keep the moneys
I'm being very easy going with it
slate arrow
Fingers crossed, but it's unlikely. Depends on the CS rep you get.
steep egret
i dont think they can do that, you can't exactly have Credit in mogstation, as far as i know
steep egret
crysta, hmm maybe
slate arrow
Again this is just speculation
pliant viper
whatever that stuff is
slate arrow
I'd recommend just waiting for SE
steep egret
would be the first time ive heard of it
slate arrow
steep egret
they are more likely to just refund, or refuse id say
pliant viper
Yea there is Crysta on the mog station
steep egret
but you wont know unless you try
slate arrow
Crysta was the "currency" you purchased for the FF11 subscription
pliant viper
if not, they stole 20$ in a sense
slate arrow
When they transfered to the SE Account after 95% of PlayOnline was depreciated they kept the Crysta system around in regions that still used it
Notably, it's the only way to buy subscription time via PayPal, at least in the states
steep egret
crysta, (and steam wallet) is useful for some ppl who have issues using creditcard for subscriptions
pliant viper
Yea I can use my paypal on steam
steep egret
as SE's system likes to refuse payments in some regions
pliant viper
so I'm going indirect with it
slate arrow
🔫 hand it over I need it more
pliant viper
hands over some dried squid to go with that alcohol

Anyways, do let EVERYONE know ahead of time to not cross the streams
and then some because dear god SE please

Pretty sure even 'returning players' might accidentally get both
beta player who didn't use steam takes hiatus
then wants to use steam
steep egret
yeah, when expansions come out
you see a bunch of ppl who purchase the wrong one
they are on Steam, then buy on the SE store
and can't use the key
happens a lot

all of them chaotically spouting nonsense

good waiting on support pretty much, it's just to see if I can get Crysta or refund
who knows
slate arrow
It's a new thing, which is why I'm hoping you can get an official answer for us
Us older players know better
So it doesn't happen OTL
pliant viper
The graphics look good, it's tempting to create a female character
My time on Elsword has got me used to playing on female characters cause each character has a certain class

play warrior, be your own healer generally at the healers pace, but the DPS AoE abilities means the bigger the pull the higher the total DPS

The only time I would take the dps into account for pacing in dungeons is when it's very early levels where some dps won't have any aoe abilities yet and they'll be bored out of their minds if you W2W.
