Also is that normal that i'm losing my gear sometimes? I'm pretty sure my gear was 200+ before i got logged out
No, that's not normal at all.
I'm saving it with the button thingie on scholar and i lost the pants of my scholar set
Try hitting the "recommended gear" button.
That will always recommend the highest ilevel gear you have available for a given class/job in your armory.
I mean it's okay i need to replace the level 50 set
but the pants got randomly replaced by something else
then i hadn't played in like 2 months
It could just be a case of forgetting to save the set the last time before you swapped classes.
Probably yeah xD
That's why I suggested the recommended gear button - if you have something higher ilevel than what you have equipped, then it will recommend that.
I know but sometimes it recommends things lower ilevel because it's more adapted
but yeah those pants are lost i think
It really only does that with ARR tank/melee gear. Once you get past ARR that stops being an issue.
at lvl 90, is there any use for IX materia other than transmuting?
For crafted pieces which can accept overmelds, grade 9s are used to fill the rest of the overmeld slots.
Overmelding
ah kk, thank you!
anything i can do with extra field notes from bozja or are they just trash
Trade them to the historian
How does the new housing work?
I see "unavailable for purchase" when trying to relocate?
i see, when can I next bid?
So I just launched the game, not in steam, and for some reason "Time, Pay Time, FPS" have shown up in the top left corner above my MSQ thing in game
how do I turn this off?
It wasn't on yesterday and I'm not sure if it was a thing that got switched on via some sort of hotfix or what
Can I ask a technical question?(related to the game)
How many correct items do you need to get 80+ points in the fashion report?
You can but if it's super technical you can try #952326072542847016
just follow thw guide
nvm, figured out what it was, stupid razer game booster
Okay
It's not terribly technical its just something I want to make sure of
To explain
When I tried to register, it wouldn't let me cuz customer support said I was not in a supported country, so I had a friend in the UK create an account for me
If I had problems creating an account, does this mean I won't be able to sub in my country as well? Cuz i don't want to beat heavensward then be hit with "just be born in a different country lmao"
Just curious, as if its thats the case, I might be better off waiting till I move...countries and create my own account
the workaround for people in 'unsupported' countries seems to be buying Crysta with Paypal
they may just accept your credit card though, it's a matter of luck from what I've seen
creating account? I don't remember they ask for country with free trial, so create one then, after you finish or get bored with the trial, upgrade to full game through mogstation, my country is not supported as well but I got mastercard so they still accept the payment
they do ask for country when u make a square account
a lot of SEA countries arent listed
with free trial though?
yes
well I just dump the US
I've had to create an account for someone before
helped them try various things like mobile data and a VPN and it just wouldn't work
and yeah that is the later problem as well, a fake US address, not that they gonna validate it but better to keep the fake information in case they need to recover your account
any Triple Triad decks I can netdeck for getting MGP?
not really, triple triad gives barely any mgp compared to other activities
Selling dupes doesn’t give much either
and every other npc is gonna have different rules that can be easily defeated with a different deck
it's mostly a completion/weekly challenge log thing, you get a mount for getting all cards up to endwalker
anyone who knows what the name of this track that is in the background is called? and if there is, where can one get the orchestrion roll for it?
I'm probably very very spoiled by WAR but could it be that PLD is just trash defensively in HW and SB dungeons?
Nothing impossible obviously, just not my expectation.
Nah pld has all the Def tools short of maybe wings in hw
PLD is perfectly fine in hw
And veil but that doesn't get as much proc value in trash if you can't gcd it
Shelltron spamming is your friend 
It definitely feels significantly better when sheltron gets it's trait upgrade
4 seconds just feels... yuck.
true, guess I was just spoiled by war too much x)
So, I've beaten ARR. Im level 55 just playing through the MSQ. Is there anything else I should be doing?
for ARR? you could look at the side content dungeons
And of course post ARR
some people might suggest dabbling into extremes but tbh it's best if you save that for max level than anything
but if these don't really interest you, keep doing MSQ so you get more stuff
I just dont want to get to endgame (whatever that is here) and be way behind on something i SHOULD have been doing all along.
You can’t get to endgame without doing the story
You’ll need to finish the Crystal Tower Raids to continue onward, which you can start at Mor
there's nothing you should be doing besides just unlocking stuff to see what you wanna do

nothing in old content affects current endgame
yep
ok
The only things you “should do” are job quests and the story stuff
thanks everyone
Unlocking the Hard dungeons is also interesting, some are neat
Certain side content involves doing them for completion so might as well pick em up. Some Hard dungeons also have side plot
Question. I hear people saying they are doing MSQ with friends but like... as I'm working through ARR its all solo content until a duty pops up but there are legit hours of just solo... does this change past ARR? The wife and I are playing together but it feels isolating at times
msq is solo up until the end tbh
where is the group content at? I mean, the wife is lvl...46 atm? I'm 52.
dungeons
Still haven't got through ARR yet
all the endgame content of that era is locked behind finishing the base story of that era
IE all arr raids and stuff are locked behind finishing arr base story
ye, so its lots of solo content... I'm considering buying a story skip. If I did, what all should I skip and come back to later?
And so on for every expansion
can't I watch the story in like one big cut scene?
No
And you're doing the group content, dungeons.
That's stuff you two could do together.
gotchya
can I spam mentor roulette and increase my number on record for astrope?
You can yes but be prepared for misery.
oh thanks, yeah Im prepared for today at least xDD
For someone setting up a discord for an FC. What, if any, bots would you say would be useful to have?
Any music bots or bots that will give levels
well theres the sesh bot if you want to organize stuff with your fc
and kupo bot for a bunch of general things
so uh i'm in lost city of amdapor on the bird boss and no matter when i kill the little wamora adds he doesn't want to get down, what should i do?
nevermind it finally worked after like 10 minutes
Anyone got the calculations for the various Fashion Report payouts? Or is it only 80 and 100 that pay more than "standard"?
10k for trying, 50k more for 80+ points
times 1.5 due to Make it rain
Ive beaten ARR, working on Heavensword now, but I don't think I've seen anything pushing me towards a raid?
Aaaaah KK. So I don't need to get any of the dyes, (assuming I had no gear but dyed them all the right colors) I won't hit 80
And is this still correct? https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/7wyxxm/fashion_report_scoring_theory/
yes you do need a dye, use the guide
they're blue quests
!faq contentunlock
How many raids are there for ARR?
3 alliance raids, which you've done
13 normal raids
which ive done?
the biggest thing Ive done are some 8 man boss battles
You said you were working on HW no? meaning you had to have done Crystal tower
at the beginning of what I assume is Heavensword content
I don't think ive done anything with a crystal tower, no
what's the last fight that you did? Moogles?
Ive killed Leviathan and some wood god guy
Okay you're in post ARR
yeah, you're in the post-ARR content, but not yet Heavansward
go to mor dhona do the CT quests
hard primals if you havent
CT quests?
hello : ) , does it matter what server I choose on eu ?
CT = Crystal Tower
Ok, are they a different color or how will i know?
Frontline PvP so messy i cannot target desired enemies at the right moment
Is this a question or a rant?
Hey how do I gift someone a sub?
Give them a 60 day sub card from Amazon
How do I get more precise i tab swap it never selects the nearest enemy
!faq tabtarget
Bind "Target Nearest Enemy" to a key.
It's an option in the Targeting section of your Keybind menu.
Just so you know how the tab targeting works
where do I unlock and queue diadem?
Ishgard, in the firmament
is eureka stormblood relic and is BA shadowbringers relic
While others have answered the question better, also keep in mind you have a keybind to switch to whoever your target is targetting (i.e. from the enemy to the ally its hitting). It's another useful way to quickly switch around.
For ally targetting, the F keys will also target your allies from the top of the party list to bottom
Bit of a dumb question but I just want to be sure, If I buy this I can send the code to someone else right?
yeah
If they're also a EU account, iirc
Is there anyway to not have the screen asking me to open the wiki every time i log in?
it's in the settings
Which one is the Tribe that gives an Elephant Mount?
anata
Character Configuration > Display Settings > HUD
I think the option is "Show Play Guide upon login". Just unclick that box.
On partyfinder how do I get it so it’s where I am?
Do you mean you want to form a party with only people from Adamantoise?
you said you're on Adamantoise....
No that’s all it shows
Without a larger picture for context, all that tells me is that your home world is Adamantoise.
no
that's the community finder ain't it
@cosmic tiger
that's not party finder lmao
in game
It’s something finder
Yeah that's .... that's Lodestone stuff.
Yh
What are you actually trying to do? Are you looking for FCs on Moogle?
Yh
And on there, you can select your world in the box
Is there a way for me to target my target's target easily on controller so I can stop flipping back and forth between my tank and enemies when I'm trying to play healer
use up and down on your dpad to scroll your party list, left and right for enemies
much simpler than target's target
Left and right scrolls across everything in front of me so if my party members are in front of me they get selected :D
Then change your targetting settings
Man, im not seeing that at all Nevermind, it's in General
Oh, my bad then. I knew it was in there somewhere because it’s one of the settings I always turn off on a new character. I just don’t always remember what’s on which tab
you can trade shards/crystals right? is it the same as trading any other item
yes
ogey
how do I earn scrips after diadem? do I need to turn in specific items of just gather anything?
craft collectables and turn them in.
What level does my lancer get to be a dragoon? Just started and learned they change into a more specific roll
!faq collectables

level 30 job quest
I’m gathering not crafting
then gather collectables.
Thanks mate
how do I know which collectibles
Also needs main story progress
Literally EVERYTHING is locked behind main story progress
the collectible appraiser, that's at every main city
its not really a change but more of "now you can actually get all your abilities"
and yeah you also need to finish the class quests and the level 20 msq sylph management
i cant play the free trial, what can i do?
Make a new account or buy the game
i cant use the steam version?
if you ever bought the game you are no longer eligible for free trial
i didnt buy the game
so download the trial on steam
i did but when i log in
that shows up
you are downloading the wrong thing.
or you're not a steam account

You're not a steam account, use the download we linked
ok
Is it really hard to get the dragons for landerwaffe?
Do you know the drop rates?
I dont think those have ever been publicly disclosed
Oh
Calculated server side
no way of knowing short of hacking the servers
guys, If someone owns FFXIV up to shadowbringers as steam version will they be able to activate endwalker expansion if I buy mog station version for them?
or does it have to be steam version
Is there a different process for using a story skip for an alt character versus your main? I want to skip to SB, but old forums and Reddit threads say you can only use one skip of each type per service account. Has this been changed?
hasn't been a thing for awhile
it was only a thing for 1 patch when they initially launched it
you can't skip something you've already done, so like don't waste the skips you buy
Ah, ok, much appreciated.
I'm wanting to skip ARR patches and HW, so I've been holding off on doing them. I just didn't know how the process went/if it had changed. When you buy it do you select which character gets it? I've not purchased anything on Mogstation before
you select the character
Awesome, thanks!
When can I start the level 50+ paladin quests? I completed all them up "Keeping the Oath" but I'm level 60 now and cant access any more.
I'm at the last stretch of Post ARR right now
when you start HW
Okay ty
Is there any good lost actions guides for bozja. Not for DRS or DR just normal bozja or zadnor
any lost action that gives you damage works
also true of DR but normally you'd want to use the expensive essences here
if you aren't specifically preparing to fight a boss, then you can really just take any actions that give you damage
if you have a surplus of assassinates or banners or something
I have 90 something assassinates last time I check idk about banners
the sound of drawing the weapon is the same for every weapon of the single class ?
no
it's based on the weapon and the class
a machinist pulling their gun out will not produce the same metallic clang as a warrior drawing their axe
but i mean weapons of the one class
I think he meant does every gun sound the same
also no
my card is clearly 1 point higher?
Various weapons have sound animations along with them, so sort of yes, sort of no.
i mean when you unsheath yes it produces the same sound
but it didn't flip
yeah what alla said
the enemy card
10 is the cap
sometimes a weapon will make extra sound if there's a particle effect to accompany it
The base unsheathe sound is the same, the weapon may play another sound in conjunction with it.
So it's a tie
gordian weapons are the most apparent
bruh
See: scaevan weapons.
are there crafting exp boosts that count for leve turn ins?
do i get purple scrips from things like custom deliveries and the EW class quests if i am at lv 90?
Yes from custom deliveries, not sure about Studium
studium does not
operates just like the facet deliveries, its for leveling only so only white scrips
okay, and aside from that it is from the usual place in each town
the house of splendours
is there a website/discord/community that reports on the fates in the specific locations for the bozja quests?
like faloop or something similar
Bozja are separate instances
there was a website for eureka back when eureka was a thing for NM
but it had a new link for every instance
think he wants an up to date one similar to
FFXIV Eureka NM pop time tracker
not sure if there is something similar for bozja
there isn't afaik
sorry i should have specified, i dont mean in bozja but the ones in the "for want of a memory quest" that asks you to farm 20 fates in different heavensward areas
you just do fates as they come up
The locations are listed in the quest log
aye
but they should be in the journal
it's just listed and you do the fates whenever
typically recommended to do sea of clouds over coerthas western highlands because the scaling sucks there btw
kk, thank you!
both other areas are perfectly good
afaik, any special fate reporting website
is self reported aka a community member does it
same with discord groups
yeah was just wondering if maybe it already exists to save me work 🥲
AFAIK its not possible to obtain data from the game to see if x has spawned
the reason timer websites work IE: for gathering is because its in game clock based that never change
yea i was just wondering, not complaining
I thought I saw somewhere that you can set certain HUD elements, like the trance bar, to a simplified version, where is that setting?
In the HUD editor, select the class bar, hit Settings
ah, thanks
what are the fastest lvl70 dungeons
hell's lid
If you mean for bozja, BLUs running hell’s lid is what’s recommended
ye any other good options though? getting long queues on hells lid even on tank
Make a PF, say you’re farming for bozja
Which place is the best to level BLU from 60-70?
the same place, kholusia beach.
Is it south?
The beach is on the east
For DRG, is crit + det or DH + crit better?
so the one with better +crit then. alright
In this case I'll take the higher crit
Balance also shows best in slot, so look at that
thanks!
Classical can also be upgraded to 590
where's the quest to "Flagged Mission: Sapper Strike"?
you're in the wrong section. its a routine mission, not priority
ah, thank you man. may you get a shiba mount in the future
So I just fought Garuda, and got the green crystal. I now have all six..now what, do I get like a upgrade or something?
Keep doing MSQ
||I saw the Primals get absorbed||
||oh no||
Is that like robot thing the final boss of ARR?
Just keep doing the story
by the way, i'd recommend redoing your team comp
i had good experiences with a healer, tank, and 2 dps
having "standard" dungeon comp for squadron missions is irrelevant
nah it's what worked for my comp
there are plenty of times when the stat requirements make it so you dont want or need it
You can have 4 DPSes as long as the points add up
and while thats fine and dandy, it wont necessarily work for them
i got the stat requirement @ 50 instantly
though weirdly i think it had affinity? couldnt figure that one out since i thought flagged didnt get them
What fireplace is this?
@tight dust masonwork stove
Thank you!
Is there a way, to hide the interactive arrows for people on the Blank Partitions?
Hello friends
I'm a lil confused
About how Glamours work
Can I only cast them on a specific piece of armor or can I create an outfit to wear whenever no matter what my actual stat-armor is?
Depends on the item used.
Wdym
You have to be able to equip the item you want to use as a glamour on the class you want to use it for.
So if it says something like "All" on the item, you can use it for every class.
Oh that's not what I'm asking
If it says "Level 1" on it, you can use it regardless of level.
I'm asking if like it has to be on that specific armor set or can I use glamours whenever I want
If that makes sense
you can glamour over whatever you're currently wearing
Glamour plates are probably what you'd be interested in
so long as it fufills the rules of glam
The only other restriction to applying them is if you're in a place you can apply them.
same or lower equip level as what you're wearing, and is for the job/all class
Easiest 2 player mount to get currently ingame?
You can also tie specific plates to specific gear sets, so even if two classes use the same armor, they will use different glamours.
Draught chocobo, like everything else is cash shop
strictly in-game, landerwaffe or al-iklil, though both are largely rng dependent
but the easiest would be the draught chocobos since it just requires a person to use your RAF code and sub for certain amount of time
You could prob get landerwaffe way faster
idk how low the rng chances are
tho
hope its not like 1 percent chance per dragon 
its not that low
You still have to deal with other people rolling tho
Not if u solo it
You can’t solo the 80 EXs
not really at a point where jobs can safely solo shb exs
What are glamour plates?
Damn
basically lets you make a complete glam outfit that you can quickly glam onto your gear
rather than having to glamour each piece individually
question here! so a WHILE back I tossed the book I was using for Trial of the Braves for getting the ARR relic weapon cause I figured I'd never get around to doing it. Well now I'm trying to but I cannot find the book anywhere. I've talked to all the NPCs in the North Shroud, I've looked through what the calamity salvager has and nothing. Anyone have any other ideas?
Ooh how do I make those
go to any inn room and interact with the glamour dresser
at the bottom of the window there's an option to edit glamour plates
Books are sold in Mor Dhona, a npc sells them
thank you so much!
Look for G’jusana, don’t forget the tomestones needed too @hazy loom
Wait wouldn't skyslipper be the easiest?
You asked about 2 seaters
skyslipper would be fairly easy to get yes, e4s unsync from what i understand is a relatively easy unsync but i can't say that with certainty as ive never done it personally
!faq glamour
'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'
Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.
'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'
Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.
....since that faq doesn't have the info I thought it did:
Glamour plates are found in your Glamour Dresser, which you can access from an Inn room. Basically you put gear into it (which costs a Prism), set up various outfits (called plates) using the gear you have in the Dresser (or the Armoire, which is basically very specific gear), and then applying the plate to your current gear costs nothing.
oooooo
You can then access the plates you've created from your Character pane here
and look and apply various outfits you've made
A long time ago I read some advice that you shouldn't skill choco medica on your chocobo, as it'll spam that even in single target healing situations. Is that still true or did they change the AI?
Thank you, Kael.
What's the best way to farm skybuilder's scrips with 90 crafters/min/bot? The normal level 80 crafts?
If you want a specific plate to always be with a specific gear set, you can do that in the Gear Set pane by interacting with the specific gear set and selecting Link To Plate or
I have mostly-melded Pactmaker's, so probably
For example, my Dragoon and Reaper use the exact same gear (sans weapon, of course), but because I've linked each gear set to a different plate, I look different when I'm on each class.
despite the armor being the same piece
It's essentially a built-in command for the system to swap your gear set and apply a full-outfit glamour at the same time.
All that happens instantly.
Iirc you need more or less bis pentameld on pactmakers to macro expert, so you might have to do normal 80 crafts
Do I need to entirely finish my first anima weapon in order to do other ones?
If you just want scrips and not the skyward points, the non-expert 80’s will be vastly faster
No, but you can’t be on the same upgrade step for multiple relics
So you can’t do the light grind for more than one relic at a time
Silly question but was wondering how y’all pushed thru the beginning when it’s super slow feeling? Also what keeps you playing besides new story quests?
I’m a bit of a completionist, so doing lots of different content helps keep me engaged
And I like how most of the jobs played
As for the beginning of the game, it was mainly interest in the story and playing with friends
Curiosity.
a personal acceptance that it is the fate of most rpg games to have slow starts leading into great stories
Fair
I've seen a tier list for jobs for solo PoTD but is there one for solo HoH?
Maygi’s HoH 1-100 Handbook (Solo/Party) ~ INTRO ~ Welcome to my Heaven-on-High guide! Yes, I copy-pasted my POTD guide for this. I’ll update the basic information bits later~ I personally really love deep dungeons and have solo cleared both POTD and HOH (view some media on my Twitch chann...

Hello, I'm an officer in a new Free Company that my WoW guild formed after we left wow last year. We were lucky enough to win a house lottery for a free company estate. We're trying to figure out which wall or house item we need to get this style house. Is anyone able to identify it?
you mean the one in the top left?
yes
yeah. I think that's it, but none of the guides, websites or lodestone say how to buy or make it
you buy it on the mb or craft it in your fc workshop
Anyone know the composer of the knights of round (||King thordan||) theme
that should be soken
A majority of the music that isn’t from 1.0 is composed by Soken
If I do all the duty roulette is that a guaranteed lvl up?
Or at least more than 50%
@lone ravine leveling + AR + Msq is almost guaranteed a level with the bonus alone
Alr
I say almost because I'm not too sure how much exp the new msq roulette gives now
Oh new?
35-45%
Before, Even if i rolled sastasha + CT + castrum. I guarantee a level iirc
Msq roulette related dungeons was reworked in the recent patch
Hmm
There used to be only 2 dungeons and they were 8 man
Ah
Yo uh
Does anyone know the ost that plays during the last heavensward cutscene
When ||Ishhard finally joins the alliance||
what day does the pvp season reset o-o
I'm sure I heard that before but I never got the name
Whenever patch 6.18 happens for the ranked season
For the Series, that ends with 6.2
I'm trying to login to my free trial account but it keeps saying "Unable to complete version check"
My retainer is a fisher and it says max level 56. Why is that?
because your level in fisher is 56
retainers can't go higher than you are, personally, in a class
Ohhhh
oh so they havent announced it
X.x8 patches are generally within the last month or so before the next major patch
So 6.18 is likely in mid-late July
You got until 6.2 then which is August
ty 😄
the series rewards will be around for an extra major patch iirc
after that they're cycled out
I really want the attire 😛 im pretty new
you got plenty of time
I barely started and im 16
im already 90 lol
When I try to login its saying unable to complete version check, any way to fix?
how do i join a triple tri tournament, not a open one

I just got into housing after purchase my first house and god damn how do these people come out with these ideas
I redesign my small house. I hope you enjoy watching it!
Address: Plot 10 Ward 7, Lavender Beds, Aether(Faerie)
Owner/Designer: Veivon Scarlentyr
Status: Closed under renovation. Please look forward to my next build.
Hello i got a question: My girlfriend, moved data centers (she moved to Aether) and we've had our eternal bonding ceremony on August 20th, what will happen to our eternity rings if we're now in seperate data centers? I'm on primal.
it's my concern since the data center travel is not out yet.
Can’t marry if you aren’t on the same world
we've been married when we were, though.
just like classes/jobs progress is independent of each other
i still dont understand
say you got half way through maelstrom and switch to flames for the first time
flames starts fresh
but if you ever switched back to maelstrom youll be where you left maelstrom off
just like how you can switch classes/jobs and level them up individually
from grand company, ohhhh ok THANK YOU. yeah i wanted to change up the music ;;
I dont remember them really affecting music like at all
would it be possible be able to gift a friend an item set from the Mogstation even though they are on the free trial?
no, as free trial users can't enter item codes
does pagl'than not auto drop class loot?
Does its level end in 0?
its not a leveling dungeon
Because x0 dungeons do not guarantee drops.
its lv 80
so it doesn't give guaranteed drops
?_? why LOL
Level 50, 60, 70, 80, and 90 story dungeons do not auto drop job appropriate loot like the other leveling dungeons do
it was an end-game dungeon
Because you're max level for that expansion. You're no longer leveling.
so people were expected to farm it
The guarantee is to aid you in the leveling process.
you can only re-roll the substats on a hydatos relic once its finished right
Am I able to transfer to Malboro or Goblin for free? im in Jenova rn
no
its only free going from a Congested World to a Preferred or from Any World to a New world and there are no worlds currently listed as Congested
Question; There are currently no old editions of EE I can buy, just the upcoming reprint? https://store.na.square-enix-games.com/en_US/product/672790/encyclopaedia-eorzea-the-world-of-final-fantasy-xiv-book
for deep dungeons like potd, is there a way I can manually select which set of floors I'd like to enter??
when's next festival event
you can only start on floor 1 or floor 50 for potd
whenever SE decides to have one
Icic, so I’d need to solo potd until level 50 and then do the queue??
you could just que till level 50
What do the different Mount Movement Types mean? I know, kinda a dumb question...
Hi everyone, i'm starting the Demo and i generally prefer caster classes
terrestrial means ground so it moves by making contact with the ground
which one should i pick as a first character?
you can have them all
on one character
Arcanist --> summoner or Thaumaturge --> black mage?
Whereas the Magitek Death Claw and the Stormblood Bird float off the ground.
whichever looks cooler
you can have both of them at around level 15 in the story quests so pick by rule of cool
ok thanks!
nowadays, literally nothing
Can I get a red mage skill rotation, I feel like a visual aid could help me focus on what I need to do as a red mage
there isn't really a rotation tbh
the birds still walk on the ground when not flying
while the claw is listed as airborne because when its not flying its still floating
build up mana, spend on melee, repeat
jolt > aero, jolt > thunder
repeat until 50 on both mana
melee combo
repeat
weskalber red mage guide on youtube for more in depth
would recommend checking out the balance discord for rdm help
balance is for optimizing
did they ever say anything about adding new job weapons for old ultimates cause i cant find anything past like 2020 but thought i read about yoship saying they would
just skip to the rotation appropriate for your level range
it still helps you learn it
this is basically it
do you alos know which spell turns into scortch?
either of them iirc
Yes, either
the only difference is whether you pick holy or the other one
after that the combo enders are the same
flare/holy matters w/ your mana yeah
Jolt and Impact change to Scorch.
!faq 80rdm
lol
just go to the end of the weskalber video where hes got an ok level 90 rotation for ya
he said it was so yes it is
Really specific wonder
What content exists
That you have to do level sync
That you cannot do as BLU?
I know Palace as one, for example. Wonder if any other
ultimates, eureka, hoh, potd
Potd is the only one below lvl 70, yeah?
ye
potd is 1-60, hoh 61-70
Say
What is the current rankings of PotD Jobs? As in, the tier for each Job
they have a far more accurate tiering of each job than we do here
crafters power-leveling means by doing the most exp given in levemete?
not really, that is a way to do it, but theres also custom deliveries and ishgard restoration
custom deliveries is the 6 per week?
zhloe and?
so its any npc but 2 npc per week
no
how do i glamour my retainer ????
You can spend your allowances any way you choose, yeah.
give them equips that are glamoured
do i have to give them a job first?
They have to be able to equip the gear, that’s all
i just got one tonight so i'm not sure how to access whatever menu that is
So I just finished ARR and entered Seventh Astral Era. When do I unlock Ishgard?
in about 80 quests
got about 80 msq quests and 13 required sidequests
are the harder reborn primals required sidequests?
yes
the hard ones ye
ex nah
fastest way to level 30-60?
!faq altlvlguide
thx
Well I beat ARR in 5/6 days. It won't be that long I hope
does this lack of sync icon mean i can meld the gear on the left?
In eureka? Only the Kirin Osode would have working melds
The sync icons means level sync
Ok so I’m trying to level up a class in bozja. Would it be best to do the regular bozja or zadnor
Zadnor z3 usually
Pop your essence and then just jump between skirmishes, jump into CE except Dal
Ask for party if there's one
Gather the magitek around the skirmishes, then burst them down
Ok thank you
why aren't there any mining spots in Azys la?
Consist of small islands probably, and the map is big
Only 1 aetheryte, troublesome
I'm trying to get skybuilders toad to level up my leatherworkers, looking on the wiki it says a level 25 botanist can gather it in western thanalan in the footfalls, but i can't find anything there, is there something i'm missing here?
check the stuff needed for the grade 4 recipe cant rly get older stuff anymore
since the restoration came out in phases and got new materials in each phase
oh this, you're right i was looking at the wrong recipe
https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Grade_4_Skybuilders'_Leather_Straps is probably what you want to craft
no worries you aren't the first person to ask for the old materials easy to miss if you weren't there at the start of the restoration
kk ty!
I'm having an issue with my Playstation 5 controller and FFXIV.
FFXIV detects the controller - the controller itself works, but it's not recognizing it's a Playstation 5 controller. That means no haptic feedback, speaker, etc.
I am playing throguh Steam.
Are u using the usb port
You using DS4?
1- Yes It's connected through USB
2- No I'm using DualShock 5 controller - if you mean DS4Windows, no, I havent.
I think what's issue is that it's not appearing as a 'Wireless Controller' and it's appearing as an xbox one.
If you want it to function properly
So I should use DS4Windows?
Yeah I would recommend
It's still not working.... :<
!faq controller
A sec let me check this one
Disable SteamInput for Sony controllers
How?
0 votes and 13 comments so far on Reddit
If you're using Steam Overlay select Controller Options and in the controller options menu untick the Dualshock/Dualsense functionality
Steam overlay tends to break games with preintegrated support for Sony controllers
FFXIV is one of them
Let's give it a try...
(See also: Ubisoft games still available on steam.)
I FEEL VIBRATIONS-----
oh my god I think it works !! the sensitivity is really low but it WORKS
Glad it works
Thank u all so much!!1
Just steam thing
Can I increase the vibration?
It should be in control settings under character settings in game? But also the vibration sensitivity curve can be really wide since it's context dependent.
(I don't have a Dualsense so I can't tell you how hard the vibration can get lol)
ty!
Where can I post that? Sorry
not in this discord at all
Can you refer to me which one? Sorry for the trouble. This is my first time here.
tell your friend to open the support desk in game and support a harassment report
He already did but we also want to inform the community about these people
this isn't something the community should handle at all
because what you're doing is potentially in turn going to cause a witch hunt and harassment back to them. just let the gms handle it
I see. My apologies then.
Would the new master recipes coming in 6.2 be purple or white scrips?
white
Thanks!
master recipe books are always the low tier
Ahhh good to know
can you solo a9s with an ast at max level?
Anyone got any specific opinions from personal experience in playing in Chaos? I wanted to make an alt for pvp there.
Community wise and all that.
I think no kmatter what you're gonna get biased responses
I think Crystal is amazing and think Chaos (despite it being my main now) is really really toxic, but I get told the opposite a lot as well.
Good, bad, queue times, etc.
Queue times are decent!!!
I think the toxicity kind of spreads across all datacenters regardless. Bad apples are everywhere. From the darkest things to the more lighter ones. I just wanted an overall review.
I should make an alt for pvp on Chaos too because I have a way too high ping in pvp
7/10!
Mhm
World wise?
I know Moogle is 🇫🇷 main.
I was thinking Ragnarok/Cerberus
How long can queuing take for Alliance Raids? It’s been 30mins 🥲
depends on which alliance raid
but in Materia, getting anything other than the Crystal tower raids, isn't easy
people do them in Party finder sometimes
or just, get into queue during peak hour and hope for the best
Ah man, I’m doing the Crystal Tower ones
What job do you queue as?
Where is the setting to make a hotbar visible?
Tank has the least favorable queue time for alliance raid
current functionality. using the terms in the keybind window, and legacy movement
move forward + move left / turn left = run diagonally left
move forward + move right / turn right = run diagonally right
move back / walk backwards + move right / turn right = run diagonally right
...
why does
strafe left + move back / walk backwards = ... RP walking slow backwards left
how do I fix this, to be run diagonally left would be nice; same movement as using the "move x / turn x" + "backwards"
toggle to disable 'strafe left + strafe right + move back / walk backwards = .....RP walking backwards' would be ideal with this
ping me if respond I'm not going to leave this channel open
generally yeah, just queue as a DPS for CT series between 17:00 - 23:00 AEST, those are the peak time
outside these hours, It's going to be tough in Materia
Character Config > hotbar settings
Or
HUD Layout > click the cog with the desired hotbar selected
what is the purpose of most of the deep sea fish?
are they just useless or can I actually do something with them appart for desynthesizing?
Deep sea as in ocean fishing voyage fish, or spear fishing?
Because a vast majority of fish are vendor items with no direct use
Some desynth into materia or other items besides useless sand, some can go into the aquarium furnishings, and a couple are crafting materials.
I mean the ocean voyage, thanks
Yeah ocean voyage fish are either all desynth trash or aquarium fish
They’re slightly more useful to desynth since you usually get the bait that catches them back.
(Don’t do this during the voyage or you lose out on experience)
okay cheers
Can you hide the hotbar numbers?
i apologise for the terrible quality but what’s this hairstyle? i can’t for the life of me find out the name of it
Is there a way to re-roll the available levequests aside from doing others to move them up? I need to do 2, both of them aren't on the list yet and I only have 3 allowances
nope
Oof, guess I'm waiting several more hours for more then ._.
just default hairstyle afaik
just visit aesthetician
got a question about the 2.2 quests : ||I remember seeing lord lolorito in a cutscene being suspicious, what was that about?||
you'll find out later
what was it that they said though? i've forgotten entirely what they said haha
you can replay cutscenes from completed quests in the inn if you need to
oh okay thank you
If i plug in a controller and change some hotbars on the controller hotbar and then plug it off, will it change back of how it was with the keyboard ?
If I'm doing the ShB relic and my quest step is saying to do engagements in Bozja, will Zadnor's engagements also count?

for this one, I would recommend to just do 3xCLL
3XCLL?
afaik each CLL run drops 5 memories
what's cll
Castrum Litoire
ah
Wait do Levequests shuffle occasionally? The one I needed wasn't up on the list a minute ago, but now it is
I have no idea, afaik You need to do the current one, and hope the next one that pop is the one that you want
Yup. If you miss the one you need just doing a random one will replace it
Essence?
I know, but I didn't do any to replace it cause I'm tight on allowances, I just came back to Camp Bluefog now though and the one I needed was up when it hadn't been 20 mins ago
how is allowance related to levequest tho?
You need leve allowances to do leves 👀
Leve allowances yis
Yeah, if you type /journal
Look at the bottom of the panel
It will show how many allowance you have left
guys my inventory is almost full (full of drops from random enemies) can i like sell stuff without worrying or are there some important drops that idk about
Hover over the item tooltip
If it had shop selling price, you can safely toss them
item drops from random mobs are generally not worth keeping around
instead of /journal you can just hit j by default and it'll bring it up
alright thanks
How long does it usually take to unlock and fully upgrade the heavensward relic weapon, not too long hopefully?
Quick yeah
How quick?
If you have like 15k poetics, the quests are easy
Like 4 hours probably?
Including 21 x A9S
4 hours sounds rather optimistic
especially if you account for getting the poetics, too
Ah yeah if you haven't accumulated the poetics it will take a long time
I usually just do roulettes, then just never spend it when I level an alt jobs
15k came out pretty easy, especially when you get like 1k+ each day
well even then you're talking ~15 days for just the poetics, if you have that rate specifically
Since I craft my leveling gear when it reached 50/60/70
it's not something you can just bang out in an afternoon
overall it's not too bad of a process but it does still take some time
Noob sage question how do I get addersting stacks?
I dont seem to be able to find an answer in the skills' description
Grants 1 stack of Addersting when the barrier granted by Eukrasian Diagnosis is completely absorbed.
Maximum Charges: 3
And which skill is that
Ur shield.
Eukrasia
!action eukrasian diagnosis
Restores target's HP.
Cure Potency: 300
Additional Effect: Erects a magicked barrier which nullifies damage equaling 180 % of the amount of HP restored. When critical HP is restored, also grants Differential Diagnosis, nullifying damage equaling 180 % the amount of HP restored.
Duration: 30s
Effect cannot be stacked with Eukrasian Prognosis or scholar's Galvanize.
※This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.
This and only this
Your AOE shield doesn't give out addersting
If you require a more thorough walk through on how to play sage
Isn’t the max 2k?
I strongly recommend looking up weskalber sage beginner guide in YouTube
I have addersting but no means to restore it?
You have eukrasia
Isn't eukrasia at level 30
You gain addersting when your eukrasian diagnosis shield is fully used
correct, that's why I mentioned that it won't just be a few hours, since you can't just preemptively have 15k poetics on hand when you go to start working on the relic
You buy ingredients
Then you earn more
Just in total those ingredients cost around 15k
Yeah in total if you don't have 15k poetics beforehand, it will take hours lol
15k worth of the poetics items stockpiled, that is
which isn't something you're just going to have on hand if you're just deciding now to work on a relic, generally
Hmm guys for lvl 70-71 what is the best way to level that ? Still HoH ?
trying to hit lvl 71 so i can Bozja
Dungeon LV 69 or Hoh yeah
Where?
the lv69 Dungeon (Nice)
!faq anima
ohh lvl 70 dungeon give less exp than 69 ?
yeah
leveling dungeons are meant for exp, capstone dungeons at the various old level caps (50, 60, 70, 80) only got some small amount of exp added in after the fact, and were more meant for tomes instead
So assuming I can just buy all the ingredients, and if I get 2k max poetics each day, it should take around 8 days to fully upgrade the weapon?
Still need to do quests, but yeah if you have the ingredients beforehand, doing the quest is rather quick. But if this is your first time, just take it easy
Yeah this will be my first time
There's story involved, and leveling your alt jobs through roulette also grant poetics, even not capping 2k, still decent amount + you get your alt job level'd
Doing summoner weapon
Just play the game normally, look up all the needed mats beforehand, buy them to avoid hitting Poetics caps, and when you had them all, go do Anima
Do I need to do fates?
Yeah just 1 crystal each zone. Pretty quick to get, but if you are unlucky those crystal RnG can be stubborn sometimes
Like in the very beginning
when do we expect 6.2 release date

I've been looking into the poisons Alchemy can make. Can those be put on a weapon? Or are they just used in combat, like a missle?
thanks sir
@sacred apex just to go over it since I didn't see it mentioned and want to make sure you were aware (since a lot of especially newer players are not):
- Relic weapons are generally something that you should come back to at a higher level since you can blaze through content unsynced and do things much faster. That's where the "fast" comes into play. On-level some of the steps will take much longer to do unless you're getting carried through it unsynced by other people.
- Functionally relic weapons (other than ShB relic weapon for things like ultimates) are really just for glamour, you can get comparable weapons with just poetics quick and easy, and they'll get replaced soon enough with higher level weapons
You basically throw them on an enemy. But they are mostly useless
All poisons alchemist can make are no longer relevant, fwiw.
But basically you use them with a taeget, yes.
Is asking the dd's very neutrally if they're using their aoe's already "tos problematic"?
Using your own skills is flat out better
Not particularly if you’ve been civil when asking.
No, not if you are polite about it
No, it only becomes a problem if you start arguing
Gotcha, wasn't sure if they might have worked like a limited time buff adding a poison damage to your attack or something. Thanks.
If they refuse to AoE you can just leave
(Do note that before level 40 most DPS don't have a consistent AOE though)
I know you can't tell other players how to play, so yeah won't ever do that x)
If they're not using mits you can definitely tell them to do so.
If you get hostile over it that's when it becomes reportable.
You can absolutely tell them that they would do much more dmg if they would use aoe at 3+ mobs
That's just good advice
^
It's just very funny when the sprout SCH does it correctly and my other two dds with several maxed jobs go full donkey on one mob every w2w :>
in shisui.
I'm so sorry.
I have spear fishing unlocked as well as a gig as well as the fishing action Truth of Oceans. But the problem is that I cannot do any spear fishing, am I missing something?
I am doing the level 68 fisher quest “Always a Bigger Fish” trying to catch 3 dafangshi.
Did you equip your gig?
Yes.
are u at the sunken junk nodes?
X: 9, Y: 32
Am in Yanxia according to the wiki.
idr much about the quest but I found this
"Use Large Gig for the Ichthyosaur but switch to Small Gig for the shadow node. Using Large Gig will get you Ichthyosaurs from the shadow node too, while with Small Gig you will catch only Dafangshi."
Basically use large gig head to catch Ichthyosaur at the Sunken Junk, then switch to the small gig when the node appears.
No i am not at sunken junk nodes. Maybe I have to go to the other side of Yanxia.
Is there a way to have job gauge/status effect icons to auto-hide while out of combat? I've got my UI where I'd like it but it's a bit 'ugly' having gauges and icons in full view when I'm just enjoying the scenery between quest locations
around here
I was there not too long ago.
simpletweaks, an xivlauncher plugin, has that functionality @leaden ginkgo.
What would be the unsynced content?
Ah, that's a shame. I play on PS5 so that's not an option for me
Anyway. Yes I was at the sunken junk nodes.
almost every non-fate part of the arr and hw ones
the best way to light farm a part of the HW relic is to do a savage raid unsynced
When I have truth of the oceans active. There are no shadows active.
Hey ! I'm currently farming for to upgrade my Novus relic weapon to a Nexus relic weapon, and i saw that there's a "bonus" thingy. How can i check which bonus is active ?
thats the fun part, you dont!
its totally rng what has a bonus or not
That's exactly the answer i didn't wanted to hear 
every 2 hours said bonus shuffles around
you did books you knew arr relics hate us
Not auto, but L1 + touchpad will toggle it
It was tracked about a decade ago when the relics were current content
I know but deep down i still had faith
It did crumble though
thankfully farming is still pretty fast
AV runs were good to me at around 2:30 a run
Idk what's the fast dungeon noe
toto rak iirc
do u have Fathom buff on
But back then it's either Totorak, sastasha or autum
Yeah that'll have to do for now. Just a shame it knocks the full UI off, I use the map fairly heavily
Before the recent changes
Ah. I had to go underwater to do it. Yes .
Doesn't Sastasha give Feeble light ?
Which would you recommend?
yes lol
it's just stupid fast to unsync
Although it's 10s of fight
That's a question, not an affirmation
a9s, the... arm of the creator savage iirc
Basically, among those 3 find the one that has bonus
Also known as the garbage bot
Will do ! Thank you very much for the pointers :D
eyes of the creator (savage), for A9S
Yeah for A9S, get like at least 2x LV 90, then beat them up 2 min ish each run
Leave duty, repeat
People comes in fairly fast if you open a PF
is this stuffs spawn randomly in diadem ?
ok i'm asking so many stuff today, but i have a question about glamour, do you like have to glamour every gear (rn i have basically no glamour since i just started but i wanted to have the same outfit on my 2 mains) or is there another way, also bc i have to change my boots, do i have to dispell and glamour the new ones every time i change?
No, you get approved grade 4 from the approver person. You can get regular grade 4 stuff from the diadem though yes
no, you can glamour over glamours
!faq glamourdresser
"What is the Glamour Dresser?"
The Glamour Dresser allows you to glamour an entire set of equipment at once when in a city or town. You can find the dresser in your inn room at any of the Adventurer's guilds.
"How do I use it?"
In order to use the Glamour Dresser you need to first put the items you want to use for glamour inside of it. This requires a one-time cost of one Glamour Prism per item. You're able to safely take out the items, but you'll need to pay another Glamour Prism to put it back into the Dresser. After you have put in the glamour items you want to use for your set you'll want to click on "Edit Glamour Plates".
When the plate window opens up you can select the stored glamours you have onto the slots of the plate to create the set you desire. Once you're satisfied with your glamour click on "Save". You can now apply your Glamour Plate by accessing the Character menu, clicking the Glamour Plate button, and choosing the Plate that you have made.
regular switch, iron ore, hemp. iron sand in diadem randomly? so i just have to go circling the map yes?
oh so this way you can put that glamour over your gear anytime?
How many times would I probably have to do it?
21-23 times without a bonus
Yes, on the right gatherer as well
And with glamouring the normal way as well yes
switch, hemp with botanist, and iron ore iron sand with miner
got it thanks
I found one Ichthyosaur. Do I want to catch a lot if I want to catch 3 dafangshi?
Sorry for asking multiple questions, but why item am I looking for?
have you started the relic quest for it? its several steps into the HW relic
For the whole "only one loot claim per week" thing for Aglaia, is that just for armor, or for Ochestrions and minions too?
