Tsukuyomi's Trial is Castrum Fluminis, correct?
(Farming BLU Nightbloom spell for context)
Yes
Are there any BLU skills that appear in Alliance Raids?
After you use a lvl 80 boost how do u get the rewards for all the job quests it completed like the lvl 50 job quest armor?
Calamity Salvager
Salvager for 50/70, centurio seals in the forgotten knight for 60
The i90 sets are via the Antique item turn in in mor dhona
And 80 is in the last Shb zone
where do u unlock matanga
Have you finished endwalker?
yeah ofc
You need to do two quest lines, each beginning with “Steppe Child” and “What’s in a Parent”
Both In thavnair
thnx
Steppe Child - X:25.6, Y:36.1
What’s in a parent - x:29.2, y:15.3
Not exclusively, if you mean it that way
Do BLU Skill Farm Parties usually take a while to form?
Depends on the time of day and some other factors. I'd suggest joining the Blue Academy Discord, you can post your pf there as well
are people more likely to buy expensive minions or mounts from the marketboard
Yes. People will buy things that they want
for context I have 700 faux leaves and i'm broke as hell. Mounts and minions go for 10+ mil ach, not much variation
each*
thank you
supply vs demand, and laziness
i see i see
also, can't you check recent sales on the MB?
oh wait yeah probably
just look for minions and see whats selling
you dont need to see all servers because you can only sell on your own
unversalis is nice for buying cheap on another server, but for selling just check your own
just do what noot says and look up all the mounts and minions and pick one that doesnt sell like once a month
How do I quickly get out of combat? I queued for a trial for msq as samurai, and as it was going, I switched to astrologian to level it up. I waited 15+ minutes for the queue to pop while I was in a FATE, and it wouldn't let me join or change my class back even as I ran away from the fate.
you run and run and run
and dont tag any other mobs
and if you are synced down to the FATE, you just unsync as well
not sure if that removes aggro thou
you should have had plenty of time to get out of aggro range and cause the enemies to leash
Unsyncing doesn't remove enmity
It will just be a one sided beating from a toddler because you can't hit back
Only thing you can do is die, kill it or outrange the leash
How do I equip materia to an ilvl 255 item? Materia level V says my item is too low, but level VI does not meet the level requirement for the item.
How do I unlock melding?
Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.
How can I get my gear melded?
To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.
Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?
Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 7 and 8 Materia require an item level of 420 while Tiers 9 and 10 require an item level of 560.
Why is my meld giving +0 stats?
Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.
The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.
That is incredibly confusing and unfortunate.
When you meld materia it shows exactly how much of that state you're allowed to add on
how it that confusing, it literally says "Available" at the bottom?
The only other prerequisite is a free slot and appropriate level
so each one of my gear has different maximums then? jeez. I need to retell my guild that I was wrong and that it worked just like gems in wow
the primary stat for the gear
Gems in wow work based on socket colour, though
is usually already maxed
Materia sockets are free to take anything as long as you haven't already maxed that given stat
materia is for secondary stats usually
except crafting gear, i believe those arne't maxed
Yeah they stopped doing attributes a long time ago
yeah the idea of a stat being maxxed is kinda crazy to me, lol. Why bother having it be statted that if you can't put a gem in it anyway
crafting/gathering stats technically aren't "main" stats
thats why they are generally not capped on gear
so content can be balanced
otherwise everyone would just stack damage stats forever
Yeah, also direct hit isn't capped on any of your gear
also you can generally tell on combat gear which of the secondary stats are capped and which one is not
The bigger secondary stat is generally the capped on
toe-may-toe, toe-mah-toe. It just seems overly complicated when I just want to make sure I'm not wasting potential of my gear lol
But yeah, it's not like the game is ambiguous or secretive about it in any way
its really not that complicated
And you're not because that piece of gear will only let you socket stats it lacks in
main stats are always capped, so you're melding secondary stats. the bigger of the two stats on your gear is generally going to be the capped one, so you want to either meld the one that's lesser or meld something thats not on the gear at all
I've been playing for about a year, and I had no idea lol. I just thought it worked like gems in wow.
and the melding menu shows you this information
got to stormblood and now I can kill stuff for my quests as a healing class. So I'm trying to max my determination to do more damage
can't kill*
melding before max level, is pointless
melding before endgame is frankly moot
you need better gear
If you're having trouble killing anything at any point while levelling you're lacking something else, not gear or melds
Generally if you're having a hard time killing things, you're lacking gear
if you have 60 poetics gear, it will carry you through most of the expansion
Yeah what's your average ilvl?
Yeah, that's mostly what I have
at no point during normal levelling do you need melds at all
Guys
Yeah. I'm up to doing Susano, but I'm leveling my astro while in the queue
Is the performance of the game fixed on PS5?
youre way undergeared
i214 is frankly pretty low for stormblood
you should have 270 ilvl
214 is significantly below what you should be at
wym performance
the MSQ starts awarding 250/255 i believe, in SB
I mean, I'm at 260 on my samurai and don't have trouble, but that class is like 5 above my astrologian
I read on Reddit several posts about the performance being bad on PS5
well that should make it obvious you are undergeared
with how easy it is to get poetics you shouldnt have any excuses for not being at least around 270
you're having issues as an ast because you're significantly undergeared
most of your stats come from your gear, 5 levels doesn't mean much
dont know about that, prob ask in the tech channel
yeah, and it's only about a 50 ilvl difference heh
"only"
50ilvls IS HUGE
50 ilevel is massive
you realize that for a weapon even a +2 dmg increase is a shit ton
but I'm at the rowna gear vendor in limsa and she doesn't have level 60 gear.
Idyllshire
You need to go to idyllshire or foundation for 60 gear
you buy the gear in the city for the expansion it came out in
so ishgard or idyllshire
go to ishgard, there is a roweena vendor near the aetherite, literally 10 steps away from it
Playing on ps4 pro. Its fine except relatively long load times since HDD. But ps5 load times are much faster
ah, I thought it was all the same since all the item collectors take stuff from all my crafting professions in every city.
at any level
thats crafting and not combat
ty
I can't wait to get to a point where what I'm asking seems like dumb questions, but this info more or less makes day and night difference in my enjoyment
I kinda feel faithless in my ability as an officer of our WoW refugee FC heh.
you do the same thing for every expansion, get all previous expansions poetics gear before starting.
You can even keep only poetics gear for the entire expansion if you want (thought it maybe a bit hairy in later dungeons)
once you learn the patterns that the game has used for years then it pretty much explains everything
you dont have to do that, the end of previous expansions should reward decent gear for the next one
but if you are switching around classes, yeah, just grab poetics
Yeah. We used to just be end game raiders in WoW, but for roughly about a year, most of us are still in ARR or HW. Mostly because we fall into the trap of doing EVERY class since one toon can do it all. It also doesn't help that we stopped at ARR to do the end game content there since it's relevant even though it's not current.
It's fine, even if you did other stuff don't feel like it's time wasted
Does IR prevent rescue?
Yes
which materia is better for gathering? grasp, guile, or guerdon?
nooby lv 75 samurai here with some question about my class build, i was wondering if its ok to discus it here my questions is about the comparison of 2.14/2.07/2.00 dps
!faq balance
That’s for lvl 90, as that’s when you actually worry about “builds”
still the folks in the discord prolly know more about the comparisons
How long does it take to complete make it rain?
The events over
isn1t it until weekly reset?
it ended yesterday
yea i just want to have an idea and and do some research on my class to have a better understanding and such
weskalber video on youtube has great leveling rotations
i see
a world w/ char creation unavailable means I won't be able to make my char there?
or would it still transfer fine
Someone told me they made it subscription free up to level 60 is this true?
The free trial goes up to 60 and HW, yes
Ah alright ty
yes, free trial up to 60
once you buy the game its subscription though, there is no going back (just making this clear, there is no "free play" after buying if you let your sub expire)
When is the daily reset in eu?
Rip
16:00 London time, 17:00 Berlin
well, free trial is a trial, not a free play mode 😄
9.5 hours
Daily reset is the same time for everyone
dye related question. some colos show two dyes needed to apply it, do I need both or one of them
Those are the same dye
thanks!
You need only one. It accepts whichever you have on hand.
The only difference between them is that general purpose can be traded
Hello, I wanted to ask about this guide
https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Guide:Progression_and_Level_Locked_Content
I thought the max lv is 80, why does it say levels above 80?
because max is 90
EndWalker goes to 90
80 was shadowbringer
man why the heck does the delivery moogle have to be so far from the inn
isn't there a website that shows you the best available gear for your level?
!faq balance
its always poetic gear until X5 and then dungeon gear until X0
endgame gear is different
also yes
ty
ty as well
okay so my chocobo is rank 14 with 4 stars
What's the max rank? and what does those stars signify?
20
ive to feed it a thavnarian onion to remove cap?
yes
visual indicator you're past rank 10
so 5 stars at rank 20?
Ten
its /isearch
ty
how do i do other skysteel tool quests? i did it for botanist by mistake but now i can't find any other way to get mislaid plans again:s
Have to complete the step you’re on in order to start another.
Or abandon the quest if possible.
Oh wait. It’s been a while but I think you have to buy the prototype/base version from the vendor in the MCH guild.
yeah LOL
That’s not a question you ask here
Ok
wat
are u wearing the items it tells u to wear
I don't have the items
You do
look in the armoury chest, not the main inventory
Ctrl I
I still don't see em,maybe I gotta restart my game?
It’s a shirt and pants , look at those sections
pants
Im aware
And show us the pages, because you’re not seeing them somehow
fair, but what about those that goes above 90?
There is no above 90
Item level is separate from job level.
A level 50 character can wear gear of up to item level 130ish.
(whoops, that was a while ago. oh well)
Does arms length work in any way the wind blows?
no
You can’t use skills for obvious reasons
Best utubers for class rotations?
weskalber
Alr
1-90 guides for most of the new jobs and the 1-80 function well for the shb jobs
balance discord covers the rest
Also uh how is drk sustainability vs gnb?
its fine enough
worse overall but its great in endgame
Also when to use Superbolide
as a big mit into trash too
Or in some busters
It will generally have a specific time for you to use it depending on the content, otherwise it's for your wall to wall trash pulls in dungeons or when you have nothing else that will keep you alive
K
do triple triad tournament end minutes earlier instead of the stated time? because when i try to match with npc it says "The tournament you entered has ended."
you have 3 minutes before the tournament automatically starts, if there are less than 8 players
so yeah, probably
DR gives 3 Timeworn Artefact per clear right
I don’t think they mean open tourneys
mhm
how much xp do u get per clear?
i think they changed it recently so i'm not sure anymore
wasnt much since it required 80 in shb
is it worth taking a lv 70 job? wanna level sage
think it still needs lvl 80
also what's the reward this time? getting all jobs to 90?
And you’re kinda missing your cap stone skill. Which you definitely need
hat
what's the name
its so bad i've forgotten 
Im wondering which servers on materia datacenter correspond to what theme? ive heard sephirot is the new player server so i been on there a while but its just so dead late night / early morning. i thought the mmorpg should be full of players regardless of the time?
can anyone recommend the most populated server on materia?
Any
the problem mainly with materia is that most of the OCE population was well established on the JP servers
Ravana and Sophia are generally the most populated, Sophia being the "unofficial" RP server
but all servers will be fairly dead at off-peak hours, its just how it goes
anecdotal by the way
so it unfortunately, no matter what server you are on, going to have lowish population at the moment
People still sleep, that’s when it slows down in any DC
ah, but the beauty of the materia server is my USA friends are willing to take the small lag to play with me, but not on JP..
cant really expect people to upend themselves when they've been established for several years at this point
if your friend's are on pc, tell them to get the xivalexader plugin @junior moth
just have to accept that at off peak hours its going to be a lot quieter than other dcs on materia
whats that do?
thats sad. i work night shift so im up all night
it basically allows you to double weave no matter how high your ping is
Materia has less servers than other regions, so less people playing, so less pool of players in general for even on-peak for duties, so then even less off peak
we'll need an expansion for a big population jump to happen
using at your own discretion/risk btw.
or it will grow over time, which it is currently
ya
sounds dodge lol
rule is to never mention 3rd party applications in game
i mean, the risk of getting banned by 
All plug-ins are against TOS, just don’t say anything in game
Or make it really obvious you’re using em
well im brand new. my friends could never get me to play warcraft, i hated it, but somehow final fantasy has drawn me in
but the plugins are client side so SE has no way of knowing atm
oh you're new, then don't bother with plugins ig
assuming you dont use dodgy ones from random people that is
the only reason plugins arent detectable, is Beacuase XIVlauncher has a set of guidelines on what is acceptable to be included to make sure this is the case,
doesn't stop people from making dodgy shit and saying "here, go install this plugin manually"
yeah, if you install a plugin repo manually, you are at the risk of whatever that person has programmed into the plugin
the plugins can write any code they want into the game, even tell the game to do things it shouldn't normally when talking to the server
technically a plugin could do anything on your computer, if it wanted too,
which is why to be a part of the official plugin list, there is review process
its on their website somewhere
isn't plugins u get from repos, installed manually?
seems materia server only started this year.
yea
yes, it's very new
my usa friend was so surprised that theres so many housing plots available. kinda freakedhim out. he was like "this server is dead"
but ill tell him its a new server that's why
yes, if you add a repo to XIVL, those are manually installed,
anyone can make a repo and tell you to install it
hmm
It's less than a year old
XL devs can't stop that
and to be able to modify the game, they can't really introduce any security to stop ppl doing whatever they want
because they have to be able to modify the game to make it do the things plugins do
so hey, there is an incentive listed for a character on one of the newly created worlds hitting level 30, 15 days of subscription time and a million gil? that used to just be the subscription time. it says once per service account, but these seem to be listed as separate things. couldn't somebody get a million gil by doing that even if they already got the 15 days in the past? I know that the character would be locked to that data center, but I'm more asking just in theoreticals out of curiosity
the 1mil has always been for new worlds
and no you cannot get the 15days again if you've already gotten it once
the 1mil gil reward for hitting 30 on a character should however still apply
oh okay, I must have just been misremembering. I know you can't get the 15 days again, but if someone had got the 15 days and not the one million gil via the preferred world way? I know ages and ages ago I made an ALT on Malboro and got the 15 days that way, but that character definitely didn't get any gil for free
note that the 1mil sometimes doesn't arrive immediately
Took a few days for my 1mil to drop
I think the 1 million was just for new worlds they said?
yes
also malboro isnt rly a new world
it has always only been for newly created worlds
no it's not but I still got the 15 days
yeah that's what I'm saying
ayee thanks for ze link :D @steep egret
you should still be able to get the 1 mil
what. how do we get/redeem this million? i just hit 33 last night
as others noted, it takes a bit to be delivered to the character via mogmail
thank you! like I said, more curious in case someone asks ME someday
you dont, it gets delivered automatically
if it's dps queue when i entered the queue then it changed to heal queue before it popped, do i still get the bonus?
ah okay, sorry im blind haahhahahaha
it doesn't come via mogmail, it gets dumped straight into your inventory
sorry, yea not mogmail
not "inventory" but you know, your magical gil sack 😛
it just gets put into your inv but still can take a bit for the system to deliver it
it will just show in the chat log that you received it, and thats it really
no fancy notifications so you can easily miss it
anyone know?
AiN "locks" in when you queue
sweeet
so if it changes while waiting, you will still receive the bonus
u the man, thx
Generally when does the new status drop of worlds?
And any chance it will for materia worlds before 6.18?
how do you do this?
?
Yea. Open dalamudplugins in game and it should be in there
What does the 8 of 8 mean tho 
party probably
Ah makes sense
I have level 90 summoner and blm. When I change outfit in the glamour dresser for one it does the same for the other. Why is this please and how can I stop it?
I'm assuming theyre sharing gear. You would need to assign different glamour plates for each class
link the glam plates to the gearsets
Yes they both have same sets but I like them to look different
thats why you link glamour plates to gear sets, so when you wear a gear set, it reapplies the glamour plate
Then link a different glamour plate to each gear set
but, if you change gear sets outside of a sanctuary, it cannot change glamour plates by the way
Ty how do I link?
I'm on ps5
is there a way to close just this part of the duty finder so i can watch what's in need without having it cover half my screen?
whatever the button is to open the option menu on PS5
i dunno
I did this quest just now but it hasn't changed into "Whence the Heart Leads" for next week? Cause yesterday it showed "How to Catch an Automaton" which I was waiting on to finish, and now it still shows it. Did I mess something up or is this done more often?
Ok ty
you need to wait for the weekly reset afaik, or wait 7 days till the clear of the quest
oh wait it's written 28/6
Yeah I know, but last week it showed this same quest. I waited until today, did this quest and the text hasn't changed into next weeks quest. I was just curious if there were more steps or not that I missed. The wiki doesn't really sayu.
idk if i understand but
there's two of each of those quests
so you'll do that quest twice
From what I remember you do each repeatable quest twice, yeah.
Ah ok, well that explains it cause this was the first time for me.
then another one comes up, do that twice, etc
Which then opens up a new blue quest, leading to a new weekly.
afaik you didn't miss anything
there's 2 or 3 quest that you need to repeat to unlock the conclusion of the nier raid.
time gated

You might've messed up. Weekly reset was 1hr 25 mins before your post
If you JUST cleared it at the time of your posting, then naturally u'd need to wait for the NEXT weekly reset
Yeah I totally forgot about these and checked my "Quests" tab in achievements and remembered. I'll simply wait... Thanks guys.
I'm about to swap from the returner event to resubbing.
Last time I played I had 2 extra retainers which I don't need anymore, how do I avoid them auto-reactivating and billing me six months worth in retainer time?
I can't seem to deactivate them without first re-activating my account.
Thank you 🙂 that answers that
reading the most recent EU new worlds notice- i see that you can get 10 gold chocobo feathers for transferring. does the character need to have a certain minimum level to get those? or are gold chocobo mounts character-bound anyway so it doesnt matter unless you transfer your main?
Usually square then click link glamour plate and do it for both gear sets
i have an idea to create like a level 1 character and transfer it to get 10 gold chocobo feathers for the mounts, i wonder if it will work
Does Protraction snapshot HotS?
Gold chocobo feathers are untradable
i know they're untradeable, but are those mounts character wide?
no
No
so i can just create a level1, transfer and get a mount that costs 8 feathers and use it on my main? sounds broken
are any mounts account bound?
I can't seem to unlock the last extreme trial of EW
I have beaten it and done the MSQ
only mounts that are account bound are: collector's edition, certain promo and mogstation mounts
are you in Old Sharlayan, by the docks?
is that an acronym for something specific, or just hots as in regens
Heal-over-time spells
Yes. Yes.
I have done and unlocked extremes before
The minstrel isn't offering it
Can someone give a poor free trial blue mage a hand getting mind blast in the tam tara deepcroft? I can't use the duty finder and can't initiate group invites so I'm kind of at a loss of what I can do
The last one is in a different section from the first two.
can you post a screenshot of the high end duty section of the duty finder"
Gimme a second
they can spoiler tag the image or i can deleted afterwards
yeah it does
ty!
Ahh
I thought it refered to the second list
Got it now
I haven't done unreals before
Ty
high end duty is where 'current patch' difficult content lives
as well as ultimates
Ask in crystal chat, use say in a crowded area in-game, or see if someone can add you to novice chat
Worth mentioning that you'll need help with a lot of things as a Blue Mage, so it'll be tricky to do anything on it while on trial unless you have some outside help.
is there any drawback to transferring to the new worlds? like demolishing of apartment or something?
when 6.18 drops, if I create new char on new server and get to level 30, do I get +15 days subs time? I already done similar thing when OCE sarvers up
only once per account
so i cant get that anymore because I already done it during OCE campaign?
If you don't relinquish your apartment before transferring you will get 1M instead
Just take all your furniture out first
look through the details on the lodestone post and check server transfer requirements on mogstation to see if anything's concerning, for example I'd move for the bonuses but have a solo fc which can't really be transferred so i'm staying
What is the difference of world and data center region?
datacenter is a group of worlds
pretty much is cross-world within the datacenter like parties, dungeons, you can world hop to hang out etc.
and datacenter hopping is coming in a few weeks too
But it won't be as easy and will require re logging
And will only be regional
So only eu dcs or na, jp etc
What did you guys choose?
Alright thanks
Quick question, with the crystalline conflict season ending will our season pass/battle pass progress rest too? Do we know if the rewards will change too? I haven't had time to get the archfiend set yet 
I just saw the announcement about the server expansions and new world bonus
Question:
If a friend make a free trial account and makes their character on a new world
Do they auto get the 15 days and lose the right to the free trial?
FT accounts dont get the bonus at all iirc
They get the exp multiplier n the bonus gil iirc
can they get the gil? cap is 300k, the bonus is a mil
im not sure if they can even use a transfer in the first place
i cant buy this anymore right?
thats the bonus for a new character on a new world
oh right ignore me
without the name of the item its hard to help
Who are you responding to sasha?
Common Makai Moon Guide's Gown
you can buy it
garo is getting a re-run so it should be at the saucer and wolves' den
:o
note that the wolves' den version is dyeable
there's an npc away from the general little circle with the prize exchanges that you can buy the undyeable garo sets from
dyeable version for wolsmark at the wolfs den pier
thank god ive been grinding pvp
Weenie hut Jr version
thank you all
btw, the shop is at the Disreputable Priest (X:5.0 Y:5.3), in the end,
it's not at the interior of the ship, it should be on the right, when you face the ship
If you show off a complete set to the priest (full left side), you can freely buy back both genders of the set and weapon from the calamity salvager
So in terms of Makai items you truly need to hold onto, you only need to hold onto one set of accessories (they’re all-class items) and the shield if you don’t have the MGP version
so if i buy all the makai armor for the healer and one accessory i can show it to her and then i can get the weapons for free right?
then what am i exactly getting for free
You can buy back the sets from the salvager for a low amount of Gil
after getting the title
i see
so at 5 july, we can transfer for free and we get double exp? What if i already have 2 characters at lvl 80 and finished 5.0. do i still get that double exp for my other jobs?
only if u transfer to any of the new worlds, first of all.
I am new and have nobody to really play mmos with. I play on crystal and am just looking for new friends I mean lol
I guess what I'm asking is there a channel for finding people like that
for p1s fourfold shackles where will debuff with timer appear? in "Status Info (Enfeeblements)" i assume?
#retired-na-datacenters / #603040765723148289, party finder, community finder, recruitment subreddit, basically find a free company to join
Thank you!
Ye
ok ty
is there any guides or playthroughs with just main quests and blue quests?
none that i'm aware of, most tend to be just msq and even then tend to skip some of the smaller stuff
also i finally got into the xp worlds at like 2am lmao
time to follow the msq like there no tomorrow, save job quests then
are there other nu mou minions beside the one in the nut shop ?
will do c:
dont think so

also mounts are quest unlocked right? not lvl?
When can I get my first mount?
The quest that allows you to use mounts,
''My Little Chocobo'', is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest
''The Company You Keep''. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose, and you'll need to buy a Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 required Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes immediately after ''The Company You Keep''.
Are there any differences between mounts?
Some mounts allow multiple people (2/4/8) to ride at once, with all mounts having the same movement speed. A partial exception to this rule is the SDS Fenrir, a mount from the Mog Station. The SDS Fenrir acts as if you have the first mount speed boost obtained from completing specific quests in the story, making it a bit faster than other mounts, but only until completing the relevant story quests for that zone.
Can I make my mount faster?
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
im bout to be super overlvld cuz of the xp boost but no mount xd
it do be what it is
If you ever need a break from msq. I highly recommend abusing the boost and level
bet. what do you recommend i should do to lvl when not msq?
!faq altlvlguide
Can also lvl crafters & gatherers (recommend getting firmament first if you're on free trial tho)
beast tribes could be a start aswell afaik, which appear sooner
yea im on free trial so ill try to do that too then c:
anyone know what the best class would be to solo realm reborn ex trials at level 60? im free trial and got my machinist to 60 but it doesnt seem possible on him.
or what gear i should be going for beforehand? i only using my class gear right now but idk whats better
60 is MEGA sketchy
don't even think any class has enough burst for it
70 at the very least
i thought so too but dude in here the other day said i could at 60
PLD with clemency, & WAR with raw instinct (basically self sustaining tanks), but i think it's way too hard for level 60
imo level 70 is when you can solo those
gotcha
i get stuck at this, Born again Anima quest
Do level 50-60 content with the relic equipped

you should have an anima glass or whatever in your inventory or key items
that shows progress

ah thanks

Level 50-60 content in general
Nothing specific
You keep doing content until the anima glass shows all 10 runes fully glowing
Where do you guys get those light stick?
For the solo method, you can spam level 50 dungeons unsynced.
For the group method, you do either Eyes of the Creator Savage or Breath of the Creator Savage unsynced.
The cheer emotes from the mogstation
alright

”Bonuses for characters created during bonus period that attain level 30 in any class
Gift of 1,000,000 gil (*1)
Gift of 15 days of free play time (*2)
*1 Limited to once per service account.
*2 Limited to once per service account when creating a new character on either a New or Preferred World.”
does that mean player has to reach lv30 to get these rewards?
Yo may I ask when does those good costumes on mogostation usually go on sale?
Cause they usually don't whenever I check it
mogstation sales are totally random
sadly they don't rly have a fixed schedule
They often do sales during seasonal events like the Easter event or eventually also the event for summer that's sometime soonish
but there isn't a guaranteed schedule ye
A few weeks ago on the enclave restoration I unlocked a shop, are there any more shops unlockable? I’m on the schoolhouse phase
it's the only shop but you unlock more items at it
Oh that’s nice, more furniture? Or accessories
Ohhhh nice thank you
can recruit a friend work if my friend is on the free trial and has already played for a bit, but hasn't bought a sub?
No

Trials can't be raf'd for kinda obvious reasons (to prevent people farming trial alt accounts)
You RAF people after they buy the game but BEFORE they pay the sub
yeah that makes sense, thanks vinyl 
What happens in Aglaia if you don't roll for any gear piece and everyone else passes? Do you get one of the gear pieces randomly and then it locks you out?
No
No it goes to noone
You only get auto given something if you don't roll AND the time limit to roll times out
what are the difference in colors of quest icons? Like the red ones mean you can't do them, but what about pruple/yellow?
!faq questicons
- These are how you reach the endgame and every other bit of content is locked behind it to some extent. MANDATORY
- These unlock a feature, instanced content, job actions, or a thing that is important for you to have. Do the ones related to your job/class and ones that unlock new content
- These usually have very little exp/gil as reward and are usually just part of the world/lore expansion. Mostly optional unless you are interested in doing them for the fluff
- These are quests you can do more than once, how often you can repeat it is up to the individual quest.
ooohhh ty
Yes that's what I meant, when I don't roll so wait until the timer goes to 0 and everyone else passes.
Then you get it yes
If you don't roll AND it times out you basically automatically roll greed and get the first item
okay so it does lock me out if I wait too long
Why would you hold everyone hostage that long tho?
Ah just rerun it tbh
I'm not holding anyone hostage if it's not after the last boss anyway
Yea I was thinking it was on last one
What do you mean rerun? Can't I roll once per week?
Yea, but you can run it til you get what you want
So just go again
okay so just make sure to pass on everything then
Just 1 gear loot per week but if you don't roll on any you can get from next one
If you don't roll you don't get included
It doesn't count as a greed
okay I just need to make sure then I don't let the timer run out if I don't want an auto award
So if I queue with a lower level friend, is the XP and tuff still boosted like in duty roulette?
No
If you mean queuing for daily roulette, just with a lower lvl friend; that's same as queueing alone just smaller picking of dungeons (major exp will be from daily anyhow)
If you mean queueing for a dungeon; no
Ok i got a lore question if anyones down to awnser it
Basically the male and girl viera have explanations on why the males have shorter stature and reasoning between the genders
But is there any lore on the dimorphism between male and female au ra?
Hello everyone, I've been trying to farm some ephemeral nodes for aetherical recution, but it seems I cannot find any of them. Been using the website Garlandtools/bell as reference but whenever I teleport to those node spots, there is just nothing spawning....
Ephemeral nodes are only available at specific times of the day.
which ones specifically? some/most(?) are locked behind folklore books
basically the gathering version of master recipe books
@wise sphinx #archived-lore-spoilers would probably know better
Thank you
Oh, I need to unlock them through books first?
Which ones are you looking for?
depends on the node/item
Legendary (folklore) nodes are gated by books, I don't think ephemeral ones are. They just only appear during a specific 4-hour window.
There is the item Lightning Moraine which could be turned into lightning crystals via reduction. Their spawning location for example is supposed to be at Coerthas Western Highlands (22.51, 19.94)
Only between 8 PM and 11:59 PM
To be clear, you're going there during the window in eorzea time right
Yo anyone knows what time does asmongold streams
Hi. I'm panicking a bit. My free 30 days are almost up and so I went to the mogstation to check my sub renewal - however I don't see the option for it to charge my PlayStation ID for it. It seems I can only pay directly to them with a CC or add a pre-paid time card. Is this correct?
Yea
will the new worlds become the next "preffered" worlds?
i presume it wouldn't take long for it to be populated like the standard worlds no?
No, they will be New status, which is ... functionally the same.
No, they will be new worlds, a different status with similar (and more) boni
omega (EU) is currently preferred, if the 2 new worlds gets released. Will omega still be preferred?
We don't know
Unknown.
SE does not announce their plans for server statuses until they actually implement the changes.
That sucks. Oh well, thank you. :(
the preferred status always changes after a patch, so it either becomes preferred, or not.
Dors anyone know if the raid drops (Diamond Katana) are sellable on the market board?
The crafted ones yes iirc
I’m not ready to face Extreme Shiva yet but I want that ice katana
shiva's isn't, you need the base weapon from the ex trial and 5 ice that you get of one with each clear
DRK
drk beats gnb?
Yes
whoa
Cause shadowbringer is better than double down
gcds compete with each other, ogcds are basically free extra dmg
drk has more ogcds than gnb?
By far
just look through the samurai weapons on the market and see what you can buy, shiva and leviathan glowing weapons are the exceptions where the glow comes from upgrading a weapon instead of being a tradable, crafted version
DRK double weaves constantly in burst
dam i truly jave forgotten drk
Ok ty
Due to edge and dumping stuff with CnS, plunges, salted + SnD etc
is pld lowest dmg rn?
i c
uh... I'd have to check
gnb and drk have like a 3-7% lead on pld and war iirc
7% dam
95th percentile in savage dps spread
That's among the best players in the world
when do u have access to double down
90
i c
Your skills gonna matter way more before you should think about which does slightly more dps in optimal gameplay
Shadowbringers is the best capstone skill and living shadow is very strong as well
how fast can i lvl fisher to 80 lmao?
With ocean fishing and leves, quite fast
Ocean fishing is a ton of free xp every 2hours
an shark mount is worth
yeah my friend wants this furnishing but i have to uh finish all of those shb role quests to unlock it
especially since fish are really cheap to buy from mb for some of the leves
Afaik there's no furniture for those
There is for the crystalline mean tho iirc
Which is crafters and gatherers
What would it even be?
its a scrip exchange item and i wasn't able to see it and from what i looked up online others said i need to do the crystalline mean questline
Yeah that's not role quests
i shouldve said the crystalline mean
Role quests are for battle jobs
Yeah, no easy way to do those
Outside levelling the jobs
Upside you don't need every crafter
Downside you need like 8/11 or so iirc
lol for me i have everything leveled but i skipped fisher

Does anyone know one of the person very important to the FFXIV community that past away?
I don't remember his name
And then all of the FFXIV community came together to make a tribute for that person
Main Writer/artist of Berserk
Kentaro Miura
Ty sen
Edmonts EN voice actor died and some ppl also did tributes in Ishgard
Otherwise the voice actor for Count Edmont
But Miuras passing was admittedly the bigger deal
Not so important to ffxiv itself, but more that berserk has had significant influences on pretty much every modern fantasy game. and DRK is directly inspired by the manga's protagonist, guts.
Alright got it
Ever see a sad anime Boi with a big fucking sword, that's inspired by berserk
Either directly or indirectly
is the upcoming free world transfer available only for those who will transfer to new servers only not the existing ones?
ahhhh ok tyty
Anyone know why this squad isn't ready for the mission yet?
Oh, they need to pass all of them for this?
That explains it, ty guys
when did CC S1 end again?
Patch 6.18?
Have a question: How much is it for pressing darkness set with trophy crystals and is the Garo event still going on? Just came back to the game and dont know whats going on right now.
yes, 6.18 release
kk thx
Is the garo event still going on? Just came back to the game
yes
Hi, I was thinking about switching over to Phantom for the double EXP bonus, does anyone know if the double is for all gains and not just kills? And does that mean I have to leave my current FC?
Just mob kills
all forms of exp, even quest and other stuff that armory don't account for
And yes you need to leave the fc
So... which one is it lol
this is the road to 80 buff, it will double all forms of exp gain
Road to X affects everything
Nice, and I do get this for transferring yeah?
Isn't quest exp set in stone?
To a new world yes
Okay great thanks
not with this Road to 80 buff, over level is a thing to consider
I mean ... yes, quest experience is set in stone, but the Road To 80 buff directly affects it. To show you how powerful that buff is, I recently started a character on the Malboro server, and with that buff I have two classes at level 26 and one at level 29, and my MSQ is at level 17.
It is extremely potent.
are there any easy ways to see ingredient cost vs sale price of crafted items? trying to resist making my own spreadsheet 😒
will being in a party with my level 5 brother limit his xp gain compared to if he were to not be in a group
?
If the level difference between you two is 10 or more then yes
okay tahnk you
Is something going on rn w/ world transfer? I keep getting errors for it
allow friends, we are looking to buy a free comany house? can anyone or is there any explanation for it?
how the lottery system works, which houses can be used for free companys?
would appriacted any help and answer
Everything you need should be in here.
thanks!
Wards 1-18 are fcs
How can i figure out if i have a Steam Final Fantasy account or if i added the launcher to my steam game list?
mogstation
it tells you in your account status
steam accounts say "standard (steam)"
and account status i find where?
6.18, is July 5th yea?
no confirmed dates as I've seen
Ty ty
oh wait yeah July 5th from the EU server post
Implementation of the first phase is scheduled to take place during maintenance for Patch 6.18 on Tuesday, July 5.
Ok that answer didn't help. where does it say is it like the top right corner or?
does doing content on extreme effect card drop rate
I'm a Trial
just says free trial
then you're not steam
Then it's not steam version
you're regular
nope, always fixed rate
balls
This will sound dumb.
Where do I get FF14? I had to factory reset my computer since it was acting up. I don't want to download the free trial version, correct?
Or is it OK and it's just the PS4/5 versions that are making me worried.
were you on steam or windows
Windows
!faq download
Thanks
would doing roulettes every day in the mindset of making gil , a good way?
not really
like its neato pocket change but thats it
doing a more focused activity would be way better
You can get about 150k gil per week if you do all dailies every day. Whether that's a lot or not is up to you.
It builds up steadily over time, sure. And you can use the tomestones to buy materials and resell them on the marketboard, for example. But it's more a passive thing, steady thing and not so much a "I'm going to make thirty million gil this week from roulettes" thing.
Gotcha, thank you guys
hello i buy the game and game time card and i youst it and still cant play the game :/
where did you buy the game and where did you download it
also did you activate the game on mogstation with the code you bought
the first one is not a yes or no question
From the Square Enix EU store?
When you bought the game, you should have gotten an email.
in mogstation under service account status what does it say
That email would have your game code in it. You need to enter that code on the Mogstation website.
!faq mogstation
Can custom deliveries be done with jobs under level 60?
For DPS classes is PotD the fastest way from 50-60
I’m talking about crafting jobs
Depends
On level, your skill, potd queues, specific dungeon queues, time of day etc etc etc
and vinyl said they can be done at lvl 55
you can only carry one of any piece?
my chest count on aglaia after this run is 2/3, abandoned but still count 
didn't click need/greed at all
if you dont pass then you're automatically rolled
and it says unique on the tooltip
so you can only carry one
Does every class have only one job or do they have multiple?
oh i must click pass
Well, guess I'll have to be bard then
you can just change your class
I like archer tho
bard is just archer with more skills
Bard is just Archer, but better
bard
Good day! My apologies as I assume this question has been asked multiple times today. With the new season of PVP coming soon, I have not completed the level thing that awards the crystal currency. Will those rewards be changing in 6.18? As in, I would not be able to get the level 1 glam armor again? Thank you in advance!
the season only refers to ranked
not casual
SERIES refers to the casual rewards
you have months to get the series rewards
Also, the battlepass reward glamour will be available for purchase from the crystal totem vendor after the series ends.
^for a limited time
So you'll still be able to get it for an entire nother series.
Wonderful, thank you for the response! I just had a bit of FOMO this morning, but I see I still have more time than anticipated. Thank you again and have a wonderful day you two!
thank you for asking this cuz I had the exact same question
It's a new function of the game, and relatively confusingly worded, so I expect a lot of people will have the same question
wheres the timeline pic
what does the sanctuary bonus affect?
Hi, anybody here who finished the Feast of Famine fisher quest and could tell me if Wawalago keeps the fish? Cause i need to hand them over but i wanted to use them for my house
As healer, what essences should I bring to delubrum reginae normal?
full damage
either aetherweaver or that other one that's 100% damage but -70% healing
anything that gives you damage, bring it
Ok thanks
I can summon primals when my level is higher right?
Yes
they're actually summoned at 90
Weird considering the scion of seven dawns hated them. I just found it ironic
its different
You get various primal summons between level 30 and 90. They're not "real" primals
oh ok
They're like... the essence of primals, I guess is the best way to put it?
The job quests for SMN explain it a bit

hi, are there any particular gshade download guides people here would recommend? windows internal launcher player
not sure as to the quality of content creation for this game
or if there are any other shader mods that are worth looking at
Gshade the most common one at least, haven't heard of any others
There's a guide on the website iirc
ok ty
how to make an fc
Get a creation permit from the OIC officer at your grand company and get signatures.
ty
will i be finished next week or is it 2-3 more weeks?
How do i make a sorting inventory macro ? 😄
Is there a menu you can check to see all your custom deliveries levels in one place ?
timer menu
Just typing /egiglamour says it’s an invalid command so I can’t look at the help sheet, how do I remove egiglamours?
what is the best way to farm gil
Playing the market board with crafting/gathering
exploiting inefficiencies in the marketplace
ty
and most important, be there day 1 of patch day and sell everything new from crafts/maps
and buy them later at 1/20th the price
So I’m about to finish Heavenward. I’ve pretty much just done nothing but MSQ. Is there anything I need to do or get caught up in before I move on to the next expansion?
Anything in the #2 spot on your tracker
Have you done CT and the hard Primals
Otherwise no.
tunnel visioning MSQ to max level is fine
CT/Hard primals is for ARR, not HW
you can step aside and do the Alex raids or void ark raids if you want
What are those?
Oh yes I think I had to
Yeah, that's between ARR and HW
if you're in HW then you absolutely had to
Will there be a raid between these two expansions I have to do as well?
Only the Crystal Tower raid is required
Ok
But each expansion has a 24-man raid series like it
Should I go ahead and do it or wait?
Up to you
Your decision
Ok
would recommend at least doing the first two Alex raids
so you unlock normal raid roulette
little bit of extra exp per day
Is that available after heavenward?
yes
Cool
Alexander is available after completing 3.0
When do the hunt boards open up?
Level 50
Hmmm
You also need a certain rank with your grand company though
Second lieutenant, I think
What’s the best way to rank up in that? I haven’t done any of that
You don't need to rank up.
You just need certain class levels and MSQ progression for each tier.
And you need to have completed the unlocks for all preceding expansions' hunts.
!faq hunts
How do I unlock Hunts?
ARR Hunts: Be 2nd Lieutenant in your Grand Company and complete the quest
''Let the Hunt Begin'' located at your Grand Company. You can promote to 2nd Lieutenant by talking to the Personnel Officer and buying promotions for seals and by completing the GC Hunting Log and the quests
''Shadows Uncast and''
''Gilding the Bilious.'' This must be done to unlock HW Hunts.
HW Hunts: Go to Ishgard – Foundation at x13, y11.9 and complete the quest
''Let the Clan Hunt Begin'' from Aytienne. Follow-up quests are
''Better Bill Hunting'' from Eustacia,
''Top Marks'' from Yloise in Idyllshire, and
''Elite and Dangerous'' from Ardolain. This must be done to unlock SB/SHB/EW Hunts.
SB Hunts: Go to Kugane at x10.4, y10.3 and complete all
quests with the words ''Veteran Clan Hunt'' from Estrild.
SHB Hunts: Go to The Crystarium at x12.2, 15.1 and complete the quest
''Nuts to You'' from the Hume Lout. Afterwards complete all quests from Halldor at x9.5, y9.4.
EW Hunts: Go to Old Sharlayan at x:11.2, y:12.1 and complete the quest
''The Hunt for Specimens'' from the Diminutive Gleaner. Afterwards complete all quests from Northota at x:11.8, y:13.2.
I’m level 65 and they’re still locked
Because you either haven't met the prerequisite rank with your grand company, or because you haven't done the ARR unlocks.
Ok
It’s most likely the former, go to your GC
Thank you
i currently own an apartment in my fc. if i transfer datacenters (twintania -> raiden once its drops), do the items stay where they are until I get a new fc and an apartment? or do i have to recorate?
need to remove it all
You'd have to relinquish your apartment and leave your FC before transferring anyways
ah ok. i assume the items will still be stored in the furniture-specific storage?
No, you have to remove everything from storage and from your apartment before relinquishing it
well time to tidy up my retainers then. thanks.
How do i sort my inventory?
Right click > sort
Where do i right click exactly?
Any item
Thanks ❤️
hi guys can anyone tell me how to recruit a friend plz
!faq raf
tl;dr version is: Have a friend who has not yet purchased a sub to the game (someone who is nearing the end of their free 30 days, or who has just bought the game), and provide them with your RAF code from the Mogstation. As long as they enter it before their free 30 days is up, you both get rewards.
hi i just got back into the game and got the endwalker collectors, does it come with membership?
nope
No. Expansions alone do not come with free sub time.
oh ok well thats great!
it's only for people that haven't been subbed in the last month
have to catch up on stormblood now 🙂
