What do you do with triple triad cards you already have?
you can send in a support ticket via the support desk, for harassment if you wish
Thanks found it

is the quick exploration xp always a fixed amount? or if the retainer has better gear (for their level) the higher it is
wait the 50/60 roulette can be grinded infinitely?
Yes but why would you
You get basically nothing
Outside of the normal dungeon rewards
oh. I thought you would get the 100 tomestones over and over
Hello, my account has been compromised, the pw/mail has been changed and a one time pw has been added, I'm panicking, what should I do
contact support
I could only find a mail address, do you know if there's anything faster ?
Is there any reason I can't find the quest to learn battle littany despite being lvl 53?
!faq whynojobquest
Typically Job Quests are contained within their expansions separately. If you have not reached the next expansion in
, you need to continue the main story quests until you reach the next expansion, denoted by giant letters naming said expansion.
Uhh i renewed my subscription but it errored out and didnt charge me but i got the game time, anything i should do about this?
Also anyone know what stats dark knight needs?
ilvl is king until 90
Based on level. gear just improves the general "quality" of the stuff they give back.
Look up the error code on google

time to sell items on the marketboard via retainers (if you're not in free trial)
Look for stuff in your inventory that has a "Shop Selling Price" listed. That means an NPC somewhere sells the item for that price.
For most of those that cost less than 1000 gil, they're super easy to get back and are generally worthless to hold on for extended amounts of time.
constantly sell and organize
Are you actively using it or plan to use it soon? If not then sell to a vendor.
then you sell š
And in the case of old gear, there's no need to hold onto outdated mainhand and offhand tools unless you want to use them for glamour.
If it's stuff I don't think I'll use soon, I judge it based on how annoying/expensive the item is to get back
Iām curious if any of the DPS jobs have a more consistent damage output rather than burst windows like Ninja for example. Anyone have any insight into the damage patterns of the different jobs?
every job functions around its burst windows to an extent
how do i get my 500k gil from the purchase?
They're the Allagan Platinum coins that came with the boosts
ninja just happens to be the busiest
sell those to an NPC vendor to get the gil.
You can right-click items to see what recipes they're used in, though they'll only show recipes that you have access to.
But for the most part, crafting materials stay within their expansion's level range.
@modest igloo Makes sense!
So level 1-50 materials are generally only used in level 1-50 crafts, 51-60 for 51-60 crafts, and so on.
i'd say the dps least busiest in burst would be Black Mage and Samurei for referance
they said u get 500k gil after using the thing
Yes.
i got 99 platinum pieces thats not enough
They're the things I mentioned.
each platinum coin is 10k gil.
99 x 10k = 990k.
and there's a single coin not part of the stack since items meant to be sold to vendors only stack to 99 for some reason
Random question, if I am playing with a samurai friend, is there something that compliments it well in a dungeon/raid setting?
@obsidian patio where can i find an npc vendor
bag or hammer icon on the map
not anymore
whatever job you play that you know the best works the best
job synergy basically doesn't exist anymore/everyone has it with their 2min raid buffs
Appreciate it!
ah yes good game
Are you playing on a Playstation?
pc
are you launching thru steam?
i was its ok i just restarted the client for a 2nd time and it decided to work
Is there a certain way I should be leveling other jobs? I have BLM as my main and just switched to Conjurer and I'm finding it hard to level

!faq altlvlguide
Honest question: Is SAM as bad as people say it is?
no, it really is good like any job.
it focus more on personal damage than party buffing.
your big damage is the "party's buff"
Then what was the issue with kaiten being removed?
less the skill itself moreso the solution and potential solutions
make senei/guren and shoha/shoha 2 the same buttons
like expacion for pld
a ST skill that upgrades to have aoe falloff
and replaces the old skill
it also changed sam's "big fucking hits" for its rotation
ogi namakiri used to CDH for upwards of 85k
now highest ive seen is a 35k
also auto crits means that DNC's partner other melees before sam now
how do i get married
does the eureka xp pot affect challenge log?
nope
So SAM doesn't hit as hard anymore? Or did it just change the way the job his fundamentally played?
where is the Sanctum of the Twelve, East Shroud
it hits hard as per usual and it doesn't really change the playstyle much
from what i heard from fflogs it does slightly more than before actually
but the power went to sam's weaker gcd's
on the flag
The coordinates are on the site, it said exactly what quest to do in the planning section
I see. So people were upset at the removal of Kaiten cause it made the job less complicated and therefore made it too easy to play?
People are just mad at change, nothing new
it's not even really less complicated, just that they miss their dmg up button
it changed it's identity as a big fucking hit job, and identity and rotation feel are what draw people to jobs, not numbers
the removal of kaiten got me into the class
yeah I do miss big numbers
like i fucking HATE playing ninja bc of its burst and shit
yet i main MCH
bc it feels more comfy
yet both jobs are high apm burst jobs
And did the removal change hour comfortable the rotation was?
Kaiten was a button that served 3 purposes
- It was a mandatory weave
- It was a kenki management tool
- It applied to job aesthetic
People are upset it does make the job a bit easier, though not by much. It removes having a minimum amount of gauge for burst windows, therefore making kenki management a bit more vestigial.
It also made the bar ONLY used for shinten (and the gapcloser, sure), which makes it feel more tacked on since there's no management besides 'do not overcap'.
Lastly, Kaiten is the first of a two-part animation on SAM. It used to have an animation that directly led into the Iaijutsu sheathe -> attack. Removing this is weird enough, but many people are upset because it was felt good. Job feel is a thing people undervalued in Kaiten until it was gone.
how do i get back original gear like lvl 60 gunbreaker?
The other half of the Samurai change that people didn't like was the guaranteed crits, which gave it inherent anti-synergy with crit buffs, which feels bad.
Calamity salvager
Calamity Salvager in any of the 3 main city-states
calamity salvager in any main city
But like the vitru set is better? Is that what itās called
das lvl 80 for gnb
not 60
the outsider gears
So how does the job play overall now?
The exact same, just esaier
approved fish have no use in the diadem right
People are dissatisfied that its big hits have a higher floor of damage but lower ceiling of damage, and generally would prefer if SAM went back to it's launch state is all Paragon was trying to say
desynth for mats
Samurai plays the exact same like it did except Kenki is a lot easier for management and you use gapcloser if you wanna dump it
And desynthing fish requires CUL
yh im maxed on desyth 
honestly if you picked up SAM now you'd have plenty of fun with it
yeah
spin to win
exactly
you're more of a beyblade than a gunbreaker
and boi gunbreaker spins a lot
yeah i'll say SAM is probably one of the best classes to pick for a beginner to learn a bit more about the game
mf wanna see a crit direct hit on a crit direct hit on a crit direct hit
it has a lot of buttons but has multiple layers of depth so you can freestyle and do fine or optimize and become a god
also got a really nice powerboost at 50 thanks to kaiten change š
free crits at 50 pog
yeah SAM at 50 is no longer super painful 
it's the exact same but has guaranteed crits
but don't let anynone talk shit about jobs (except dnc's rng heckfest, it can heck off)
all of them are viable and can pop off if played very well
Ummm...I main DNC
XD
I love the RNG of it
Also because I can move around and attack.
i despise it
that 50% on 50% on another 50% just for fan dance III drive me insane
let alone getting 4 feather stack, anyway here's not the chat to continue that banter
I usually use WeskAlber's guides when playing a class and, just following "his" lvl 60 opener guide, the only thing different from when I played SAM in the past is hitting Kaiten before an Iaijutsu
Is the change to SAM not that noticeable on lower levels? Or am I missing something?
Ah. So I can replace hitting Kaiten with pumping in a Shinten?
Quite literally yes
I literally just placed a Shinten where Kaiten button was to not destroy muscle memory
Cause it didn't really change
That much
You're still dumping as much gauge as possible during buffs
It's more consistent in regular parties
Ah... Thanks.
Thanks for the help again. Now onto the real issue wit SAM: Picking the right glamour. XD
when does grade 9 dark matter become at hing? 7.0?
a friend of mine tried out the game years and years ago, before the free trial became free. as a result, he is unable to actually come back and try the game, because he tried it for a couple days back when it was limited. he asked if I knew if like.....how did he put it...
"i dont suppose i can delete my square enix account and recreate a new one on the same email, huh"
is that a thing someone can do?
Their system doesn't allow duplicate emails, but it's also case sensitive. I reused an email for a trial account by capitalizing the first letter of the address, and it works fine.
It was telephone support who told me to do this.
anecdotal
but supposedly yes if he does not care about losing the old trial account
and to be clear the reason why it doesn't work is because he was probably on the old trial, which is incompatible with the new trial. unfortunate, but w/e
i would give it a try, and if anything he doesn't lose anything from deleting it and would have to use a diff email anyway
hopefully it works and this jank is true lmao
He could probably just make a new service account on the same email and use the trial on the new service account.
if i have to play at ffxiv on PC but i manly played till that on console, how can i do? i need to re buy it? or need a code? or what xD
You rebuy the whole game again and put the codes in your mogstation
You'd need to buy a license for the PC version of the game.
buy pc version, register it to the same account you have ps4/ps5 version on mogstation
one subscription covers all versions of the game, but you do need to buy the game first on each platform you want to play on as others have said
is this game worth playing solo?
There's forced group content but you can just que without issue
Kill some sprites?
Honestly you could just buy them on the mb and be done
best you can get is aetherial reduction from special node, other than that, gotta spend time gather those shard
Also going to the diadem and killing some sprites
Can someone help me explain datacenters and worlds? From what I figured Datacenters are generally regions, EU/NA/JP etc
Datacenters contain worlds on them
All worlds in a DC can interact with eachother
Can you swap between servers? does it matters which one you play on, in regards to playing with others later on
You can world visit
And no, DCs arenāt regions
So visiting other words, does that mean that I have to find another player and I can join their party and visit their world? or can I just visit any world whenever I want?
latter
Parties can be cross world anyway
Ok good
you are already queuing cross-world when doing duty, joining in Party via Party finder
So unless you physically want to see the people in your party, you donāt have to go anywhere
Does that relate to bigger groups, (guilds/clans, what they are called in this game) as well?
Or are those locked to the world?
the restriction is that only homeworld can you buy a house, apartment or join a FC (guild/clan in this game)
So I can visit any world, play with other people from other worlds, but I can only join a FC (Free company?, the guild) on the world I play on
also, get married, and sell stuff in the marketboard, probably a few other things im sure
!faq worldvisit
The World Visit System allows players to visit other worlds within their physical datacenter. After hopping to another world, you are then able to do almost everything you are normally able to such as partying up to take on duties. Click the link below to find out how it works, and what restrictions there are.
Read here
What was the last trial we had that didnāt have an add phase? Because I honestly canāt think of one (besides Hades which was a long chain of add phase before the main event)
Lakshmi perhaps?
homeworld is the one your character first created on, visiting does NOT change it
Lakshmi started with an add phase to be nitpicky
Ok that makes sense, and is there any way to change homeworld?
But I don't remember 83 having an add phase
pay money
18 dollars but it's currently unavailable
or transfer to a "new" world, which is free
Oh ok, so say in 2 years I want to join a FC for raids I'm not forced to reroll a new character on that world, I can just transfer there
Yes
The EX version does
FC's generally are only social
But fyi, FCs aren't really used for raids
this isn't wow š
Do extremes count?
I mean 83 trial doesnāt have adds
I was mostly thinking about extremes actually because I have only done most trials once on normal mode
89 has adds
90ex doesnāt have adds
Not the extreme
Ok thanks, that helped explain things for me š
Oh I forgot about 90
Yeah it has no targetable adds
No you do in fact beat up that one enemy before the phase change
Depending on your definition emerald has no adds
Diamond has no adds in either mode
Lakshmi opens with an add phase
Diamond has Ifrit
Thatās not an add
That's not an add
Sos normal doesn't have target able adds
That's the boss
That's a form change, exact same healthbar
No way that's an add
He even gets a buff to denote the form change
Oh I had one more question about subscriptions, I heard some confusion about steam/windows versions of the game, I have bought the complete online edition ( includes all current expansion) via steam. So when I'm due for a subscription renewal do I go through steam somehow or a different place?
All subs are paid through mogstation
You can also pay for your sub through steam
But it's through steam through the mogstation
Steam wallet is a payment option basically
Ok, so either one works, I can't "do it wrong" somehow?
Ok š
I won't say it's foolproof
Everyone goes via mogstation to do it
As they say in ui design, if you try make something idiot proof the universe will invent a better idiot
Steam just get the option to use steam wallet when picking a payment option
That said se Web devs need a course in ui design
Still all done via mogstation
Am I correct that the main story quest is once per character, so leveling up a separate class I will have to gain exp in different ways?
!faq altlvlguide
Tldr is basically dungeon spam, daily roulettes and stuff
Thereās this thing called the armory bonus. Every combat class that is a lower level than your current highest gets +100% bonus exp up to level 80 and then itās +50% from 80 to 90. It makes leveling up alt jobs easier.
Do I have to have reached a certain level with one to unlock this?
No
Nope. It applies to all combat classes lower than your highest one.
@stiff knot fair warning, the way the game works is you play the main story of an expansion x.0 then you have to play the patch story x.1-x.5 which is the epilogue of that expansion and prologue of the next one. All the stuff in the patch content was level cap when it was released so your exp gains will slow down dramatically
Does anyone know any Amaurot styled furniture?
The outright amaurot furniture?
Is there a guide that goes through the flow of the classes, focusing more on how they actually play, do you have to keep track of buffs, debuffs, stacks, building spending resources, cooldowns, procs etc?
If you want job guides, watch weskalber. It basically just tells what all your skills do as you level up
Any guides/videos on how to transition from keyboard to controller?
!faq controller
can u immediately begin the ceremony of eternal bonding?
I have to wait all the time until friday at least?
No you have to sort out a time and date and do a quest beforwhand
Is there money to be made making food?
Oof
Like?
food is almost always among the less profitable stuff just because it's so bloated
if you want something that's just as bloated, but still is more profitable than food normally: pots
but I mean the nature of market is always going to be
the more of something there is, the less profitable it will be
that's alchemist, not culinarian. but yea, everything is up to the whims of the market
like in theory crafting food is more valuable than raid food, just because there's less of it
on the other hand, it takes longer to sell for obvious reasons
yeah but pots are used up way quicker
for this tier specifically, I know pots were profitable when I checked the most common food/pot in potage/G6 strength, respectively
why can't i find players to add them when they are offline
it's kinda ridiculous or am i missing something
Because that's just how it is.
because they have to be online to be added toy our friends list
player search is only for online players
The game doesn't recognize any player that's offline or on a different server than you're currently on.
yeah but i could send it when they are offline and then they add me when they're online
As far as the game system is concerned, offline players don't exist.
that's not how the system works
i met a guy yesterday in a dungeon and something funny happend posted it on reddit and it's on the hot page top 10 lmao so wanted to tell him he's famous haha
Iām doing the stone vigil For my first time Iām at the first boss but my healers always dying And I donāt know how to prevent it
Are you the tank?
Tell them to get good and dodge the aoes
If you're the tank, make sure your tank stance is turned on, and leave it on. Use your aoes to grab aggro.
Aside from that, there's not much else that you, personally can do. It's on the healer to git gud.
Oh, you can make sure you're not pointing bosses at your party, tho
That's the one other thing you can do.
If the healer is getting hit by Swinge, you can tell them to stand behind the boss for that mechanic so they don't get hit.
I did it
Stupid question, is there more then once stance a job has when you unsheath its weapon?>
Yes
You can cycle through them with /cpose
And not all jobs have multiple weapon-drawn idle poses.
That is to say that SCH and SMN share theirs since they have ACN as their base. And all crafters and gatherers use GLA/PLD as that seems to be a default stance for everything that isnāt an accessible combat class.
And the different cpose for them is gender based
Male and female weapon drawn cposes are different
How do I get the Lv 80 Survival Manual? It's not on the Scrip vendor
Have you unlocked the higher scrip exchanges?
have you unlocked the eulmore house of splendors?
its under the 70 section, or bait/miscellany
I can see the Lv 70 manual
Music/furnishing/miscellaneous
I found the solution, had to unlock stormblood scrip vendor too
trying to grind for tomestone of astronomy, whats quicker ? lv90 dungeons or trials ?
idk if this is the right place to ask but can anyone explain pastebin means in party finder? Iāve been wanting to do some higher tier raiding and i keep seeing it in the description
Neither. Hunt trains are the quickest.
hi, i am planning on returning to this game and in the middle of storm wind is there a good way for me to catch up on the main quest?
Like a summary? There are plot summaries on YouTube.
yea im trying to level up the company level, not sure how to get it up, since thast the requirement for hunt trains
You don't need to unlock The Hunt to join trains.
is it a pc only thing? or can console players use it as well
thanks, ill look it up
As long as you can open the link you can
Trains are for killing A and S rank hunt marks, and you get rewards whether you've unlocked the Hunt or not.
Just type it on your phone or something
So you can view the strats and know what you're doing
i see thx, how would i go about joining one ?
I think #archived-lore-spoilers has some pinned links too.
ok thank you
The best way is by joining the Faloop Discord server, and/or a Hunt discord for your datacenter and linkshells.
cheers
any eta when we can transfer server again?
tomorrow after maintenance
wait, really!?
finally!
im itching to go to the new servers
Assuming they judge the servers to be stable enough, yes.
Presumably they will be, though.
ok ty
anything i can do with spare tomestone of aphorism
buy crafting mats to sell
though the market probably isn't that great, its still some gil
hello are all 3 raids in crystal tower series of quests required to be cleared for msq?
yes
ahhh might take a while to pop been in queue for first for a while but ty
are you queueing as tank?
suggested to queue as DPS for alliance raids
yeah its the only character i got atm
only 3 tanks out of a 24 man group
if you own the full game you can grab RDM or SAM who start at 50
could jump right into it
ah then I guess that's not possible still on trial atm
then yeah just tough out the queue
In that case, astro or machinist start at 30 if you want to get a head start on other roles
Oh right
Unless y'all break it again
Just a question when I beat the main game how do I access dlc
The dlc is just more story and the content that comes with that story
It's better not to think of the expansions as "dlc" like you'd see in a single-player console game, since that has connotations of addon content separate from the rest of the game. Expansions are just as much the main game as the base ARR content.
hey for the quest at elemental level 5, I have no idea where to go, as it just said go northeast. Is there a guide for all eurka quests?
!faq eurekaanemos
Blue circle with the 5 on it.
Is it still possible to get the wolf marks hairstyles?
Yes
Stuff doesn't leave the Wolf mark shop
tysm
i just noticed i had a yol whistle in my inventory, is it rare ?
Right after bardaams
are the lannar mounts rare ?
Yes
planning to farm them all for the golden one
With other people yes
thought you had to maybe have it officialy dropped from a boss to count or something
so when i collect them all i automaticly get a quest for the big golden one ?
You go pick up the quest
aight
are there like places i can post up if people wanna farm the birds or do i just put it on duty finder
aight
when is the first lottery period with the new housing zones
10th
oh, yesterday
prolly not a ton of players anymore farming for the mounts since they're from a past expansion
i guess it's time to go house hunting again
There's always people mount farming old expansion stuff
it's now wards 10-24 right?
People even specifically wait for next expansion to farm old expansion mounts
Cause they're not that good at doing extremes on content
So they wait until they can unsync face roll it
do i make it unrestricted or do i keep the standard roles
Can I get an aglaia coin multiple times or is it one a week like the loot?
Weekly
one coin a week
for now
thanks
it's wards 10-24 now for personal housing yeah?
Yes
i don't need an avg item level right ? people are prolly gonna be high enough xD
No
Unsync just face rolls it
and like 2 90s will carry it
People can literally solo hw exs
should i attempt getting 8 people or is there a minimum i can do it with ?
.
You just need 1 lol
1 90 can do it easily
yea, I've been able to solo hw ex's since shb on my ninja
more people makes it faster but it's really not necessary
Get like 2-3 extra for safety for like zurvan but not really needed
sephirot is my main issue cause of his towers but war is op lmao
one lv 90 dude in my pt is dumpstering ravana lmao
Ravana is very easy
Especially since he takes increased damage when he goes into his red stance
So burst him there and he kinda just dies
didn't get it tho sadly
Hey, so they say the home world transfer should be available again once the stuff seems to be stable, any information about what timeframe we are talking here? days, weeks, months?
We just figured out that some friends play the game too and they are on chaos while we are on light and we'd like to switch
The latest maintenance post literally tells us
That it's coming back after maint
It's not that high
huh, weird. i have that unlocked (unless it's a separate quest...I only did the one in eulmore which goes on to unlock ||sharlayan|| (EW spoilers)) but the game still doesn't sell me the lvl 80 buffs. only lvl 70.
It's just you can do it really quick
thats because i forgot that revised is under the rhaglr's house unlock
oh wait theres another quest in rhalgr which unlocks that?
i'm new to any non-casual content, and i'm trying to prog endsinger ex w/ a friend as a dancer. the thing is, i can think of like three different moments where i got out of an aoe, but it killed me anyways (like w/ the planet mechanism). is this what people mean by bad ping?
the revised manual is tied to the rhaglr house of splendor unlock
If you see the aoe it's already too late
It basically snapshots as the aoe appears
got the white whistle first try lmao
unless you live extremely far from your datacenter
it's not ping
if you aren't already familiar with how FFXIV snapshots aoes
the animation of the attack doesn't matter
your location when you see the orange circle is what matters
in ex3's planets specifically, like what vinyl said, if you see the orange circle marker show up and disappear and you're still in it
it's already snapshotted you as failing the mechanic
so even if you got out of it after the orange circle disappears, you still die
š„² i guess i'll just keep practising then
even if the explosion physically does not hit you
Planets are pretty easy to tell where it is even by looking at 1
anyone with two monitors know why my second monitor is lagging when the game is focused on my other monitor? i never had this problem in the past, dunno what changed
i started yesterday and we practised for a few hours today too and saw enrage a total of four times
If you look at 1 planet and it's the fast one, it will always rotate 270*
in EX and harder content, you need to start getting used to being in the safe spots ahead of time
So you can figure out exactly where it is if you only see the fast planet
do you have an FPS lock for when the game isn't in focus?
yes
and you're sure that's not what you're seeing?
Slow planets only rotate 90*, so you only need to see 1 planet to know where the explosion is happening if you remember how far each type rotates
i'm having the opposite issue
the game runs fine
my second monitor, the one without the game, is the one lagging and bugging out when i focus the game
i read a post on reddit and it's supposedly because of a refresh rate mismatch between the two monitors, but i changed it and it didn't fix

thank you!
Quick question, who here plays ffxiv on PlayStation and knows if you can swap which psn profile your account is attached to?
Will unlinking it require my SE account to be destroyed? Cause I believe I saw that on the FFXIV support site awhile back
Deleting your SE account wonāt unlink it.
Ok, so I just have to ask them to unlink it and I can link my SE account to my own psn profile?
Yes youāll need to contact support, though I will say that I havenāt heard of anyone unlinking their PSN account
Ok, cause I contacted SE support about a year ago about it and I think the guy I spoke to said it couldn't be done
I've done this before
It won't destroy your SE account
But if you want to unlink your SE account to your PSN and put it onto another
You WILL have to buy the game again basically
I'm trying to remember what exactly they did
It was something like uh, they gave me this new SE account which they wanted me to tie to my new PSN
buy the game and add it to that new SE account
and then they were able to swap the new SE account for the old one or something
Ah, I see, will I be able to keep my character and all the data and progress on it?
SE can talk you through it
Uhhh
You might want to back your HUD info and stuff onto the XIV servers first
I think it didn't carry over when I did it
But yes all your characters and stuff are fine
Ok, thank god!
Cause I've been playing for about 6 years now, and to have to lose my character will be the end of me š
Thanks, I'll definitely give SE support a call again
Does anyone have their number again? I remember getting in contact with SE being a bit of a hassle last time
If not, I don't mind searching around for it
I don't recall
(310) 846-0345 is the NA number
I always preferred email and chat support tbh
Ok, got it, thanks!
Hi folks, I'm a returning player (finished endwalker earlier this year on pc)
I just got a PS5 and was wondering if there is a guide for PC players to start using a controller to play.
I've only ever been a PC MMORPG player so it's kinda of hard to transition
!faq controller
Is there still no hood up command?
mfw it's that common
Unless the headpiece has a /visor swap, no nothing like that
Controller is based
is Aglaia still on weekly lockout? or is it open now?
Yes
Thereās no new alliance raid next patch
trying to get this macro to work but I'm having difficulties, any advice/tips?
at what rank of reputation do you unlock 6 beast tribe quests/day instead of 3?
Every rank up except sworn/bloodsworn
Question, how many allowances for levequests can you like.... save until it hits cap?
100
tyty
The lockout is removed in the next major patch after the 24man is added
So 6.2 will remove it
Does that include the coin?
nvm figured it out
yes, coin will also no longer be weekly locked
no reason for it to be when radiant will be freely farmable
Whatās that mean?
astronomy will take aphorism's place
so it will not have a weekly lockout on it anymore, casuality will be the weekly capped tomestone
@faint flare just got all the mounts, it went by pretty fast with the lv 90 guy helping
Case and point why some people wait until they can unsync it to mount farm
yup
was savage not released in 6.0?
no, it was released in 6.05
The first tier is always delayed by 4 weeks
i see
first raid tier is always staggered on release to give people time to level and enjoy the story
And learn new rotations
so the first raid tier is for a patch and a half
and they then release a new raid each patch?
Staggered between AR and normals
Odd patchs is for 24mans
ah. and each one is typically 4 months apart, right?
in x.05, x.2, and x.4 (for 8 person). for 24 person at x.1, x.3, and x.5
ic
With it being unlocked for the last month or so
They're going to delay savage launches by 1 week now after we've been asking for literal years for it
Theyāre gonna try it out at least, might go back to normal depending on responses
If they go back on it then everyone is going to complain again
Pretty sure there's basically no one that dislikes the change
for eureka gear is it better to use the gear given by nostalgic fellow, or just use your EW gear?
If it doesnt have elemental bonus on it then it doesn't help you
If it does have elemental bonus, then it helps you
or the chestpieces
The kirin osode and vermilion cloak have this
oh ok thanks
What about eureka bonus
who is this guy?
Dark helmet
B rank hunt mob
Donāt hit it
he is so cute lol
How do you farm compact springs for the shadowbringer's relic weapon? I'm doing arm of the father, but I'm only getting precision gordian springs.
Need to do it synced
okay, thanks
I finished mostly the normal trials and raids , and also the MSQ , and i kinda want to try harder stuff like extreme or savage , but i dont know where to begin , any advice ?
start with the newest Extreme
then move onto current savage
cause that's the difficulty curve of the game
Gonna be a new EX and savage in 6.2, so if you wanna have that fresh prog experience
So is it better to find a group or using the random searching if i try the newest extreme ?
Ok gotcha , thx ^^ i will try it then
Hope there are still people who play the extreme for the first time like me š
there are
What do i do with trash gear in my armory ?
Donate to your Grand Company > Desynthesize > Sell to vendor > Discard
that's one thing i don't get tbh i donated some to GC but whats the point tbh ? i don't see any loot in there worthwhile to buy
i'm already max in my company
Can always turn seals into gil indirectly through glamor prisms or certain materials.
But ventures are also valuable, or lootboxes.
minion lootboxes ?
Need captain rank
Are fishing voyages times all synced to DCs in a region? Can I take a boat on Primal and then take the Crystal boat an hour later?
When will the next tier of gear past 600 become available?
6.2
oh i see
You literally que with the data centre like any instance stuff
Wanna know how long I have to raid as strong as I am now before the grind starts again
WAIT WHAT is that new ??
August
So uhh...when's the next Crystal boat
Late August
I never see that before
It always runs on even hours
Every 2 hours
Teleport passes
But you need captain rank ? Oh no ... does that mean i have to deal with the trust quest ?
If you're not flames
Yes.
The dungeon npc things or whatever it is
With squadrons yes
Squadrons are amazing
Teleport you to your company hq
Absolutely worth the tiny effort investment every week
I have 100+ of all the manuals saved up
Extra mgp, extra seals, extra food duration
The mgp boost i wait until Saturday to pop and I do my jumbo and mini cactpot plus fashion report
Easy 100k mgp doing 3 minutes of work
I canāt get the āLet the Hunt beginā quest to pop up, iāve done everything and meet every requirement and itās just not there
I googled it and it said you need to be lvl 50 and be second lieutenant and iām way past both
is there a good BiS set that both ast and sge can use well? those 2 are my most favourited healer, but the fact that I have to re meld make it hard to switch job š¦
You sure you havenāt done it already
wait how do i become captain when i cannot apply for promotion anymore ?
Just use the low speed bis list
i thought i was max lol
Squadrons
so i do those special huns against the wall ?
yeah i was there yesterday but i did not see anything i could do
to set something in motion
Cause you need to do challenge logs for the 4th member
Then talk to the npc to start sending them out
That is so complicated they should rework it lol
It's teaching you how to get recruits
Not really
this ?
Any of the challenge logs yes
Any category
It's rng upon completion of any
The gold saucer have a large pull of people
That is so weird they doesnt tell you how to specifically get the captain rank
Like you have to check google for this xD
I mean youāre told about squadrons at 2nd lieutenant, so presumably itās important for the other ranks
to divorce someone do you go to the npc at the cathedral or can you just discard the ring
hey, sorry for the late reply, I was in a dungeon. I saw the CRT set is used for big number, is that set good in general? I dont really care about the high damage, just want to make sure that the low sps wont affect my ability to assist the team as much
Yes
If it wasn't good it wouldnt be listed as a bis list
There is also
Literally
This in the astro channel
Hi sorry to anyone that answered this already
I looked at completed quests and I donāt have hunts unlocked. Iām lvl 70 and like 3-4 ranks past second lieutenant
Thereās only 2 ranks past 2nd lieutenant
So are you sure youāre eligible for hunts?
does enchanted benefic grant 15% crit chance for the next benefic after the first one is used?
The next benefic 2
Does blue power leveling work in Eureka?
As in having the person tag enemies and the other killing them without being grouped up
BLU can't enter Eureka (afaik?), but even if they could Eureka has an entirely separate leveling scale
so levels gained there are not "real" levels
that'S not what I meant
I meant does the same power leveling strat work
It doesnāt
so if I'm, let's say, level 20 and someone'S level 1 and they tag enemies, it won't give them the exp?
Someone of a higher elemental level hitting mobs you are attacking will ruin the XP regardless of whether they are partied with you or not
with the obvious exception of NMs
okay so note to self don't screw with solo levelers
Exp scaling also drops if you fight things too high above your level
I think the sweet spot is +4 or +5 above you, though for soloing purposes Iād stick to +2
Yeah, soloing anything above +2 is a dodgy proposition, especially if you pull more than one at a time
Eureka is meant to be very grindy
can you use astronomy to augment classical gear?
No
So Iām stuck on the anima relic quest. It says ācompleting certain activities while equipped with your anima weapon will increase its Aetheric density levelā I donāt know what to do
Literally just do content with it
A9s is very common for it since it melts even with the weaker weapon and gives alot of light
A9s?
Alexander 9 savage
Ohhhh
The guide for anima on wiki or other site list how much you can gain in each eligible trial, dungeon, raid, if you can't do A9S (free trial), there still ARR 50 dungeon that work pretty well
You may find this relevant https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Complete_Anima_Weapons/Quest
You can do A9s on trial tho, just join a party thatās doing it
The anima light step basically wants level 50-60 content done
Anything above/below wonāt give light
prolly dumb question but i was seeing some stuff some months ago about a graphics overhaul in ff14 is it already in the game or do i enable it somewhere ?
7.0
ohhh okay
They showed us what they want/aiming to do
they're going to implement it slowly over 6.x, with it fully coming in at 7.0
Level cap for arr+1st expansion is 60?
Yes
If i buy endwalker will the level cap be lifted or will I need to do msq first?
Do bards use bows
It'll be lifted as soon as you have EW
Yes
Thank you
Thanks
i don't really have a tech issue but more about questions can i do that here ?
or do i still need to make a whole thread on the tech-support channel
what does error code 2002 mean?
[Kugane side quest "spoilers"] || I got the bell one in the hostelry, but how am I supposed to proc this gate pic's progression? I tried going up to the palace entrance itself as well as the bridge that overlooks it... can't seem to get the quest progress for this image||
And the quest specifically tells you "you get no help for this"
read the dialogue box XD
So does anyone know where I need to go to progress this quest?
I tried matching the angle and everything... look..
you're far off, gotta be in exact location that can get that angle
it's not the top of the tower or something stupid like that right
cus i got that sightseeing point a while ago and never want to be up there again
on the roof maybe 
I think thatās the top of the inn
I'll try this before tryin the stupid kugane tower jump puzzle\
Hey I'm trying to farm a dungeon,|| the heroes gauntlet|| for a glam piece. I've been running it with trust support and quitting out at the halfway point where it drops, but its just not dropping after like 6+ hours. Is there any way to farm ShB dungeons faster? this is frustrating
In terms of being solo, no
You can always make an unsync PF and pay people when the item drops
I tried going on that roof close to the inn but no dice.. it's sooo close...
I'm broke :/ Do you think others would join to run it unsynced? I never see people farming dungeons on PF
Lvl 87 dungeon drops reskinned versions
If you give an incentive, yeah
Looks like it's not down here either...
Also that
And because itās a leveling dungeon it always guarantees a drop
I know, but I want the specific white RPR helm, I could just do that I guess
!iglam Ktiseos Helm of Maiming
Er
Its the black version
so no one can help with this quest then huh
eh i found a youtube video of someone doing it ill just watch that
wtf where is this - the video/post showed the map in the bottom right but the solution isn't even on any of the walkable areas??
You have to go, like, between the Sanjo Hanamachi and the south Rakuza district
OHHH IT WAS ON THAT STUPID ROOF JUST FURTHER DOWN
This is where you had to view it from
am i allowed to ask about game modding stuff here or is that illegal? Nothing to cheat in raids or anything, just saw someone in a glam channel of another disc put themselves wearing Yotsuyu's red/black dress and thought it would look amazing on my au ra. It's okay if I have to give up my dream though, I don't wanna be banned.
But like, I've also seen people just... putting models of things that are not even in cities in the middle of cities. Not just wearing armor that doesn't exist. This wizardry people do. What even is it? Are they separate tools?
it's fine to ask about 3rd party stuff, this place isn't the official ff14 discord afterall
I don't know about that stuff though so I'll let others answer 
I also saw a youtuber that changed their reaper's avatar form to a different model
it's crazy the stuff people can do
yes mods can do all of that
yea but what mods will do that? i'm bad at navigating this stuff without downloading 70 viruses
I've heard of dalamud/xivlauncher but this seems out of their capability?
textools is the modding program and people post mods on sites like xivmodarchive
Nexus too
xivlauncher also has a modding plugin called penumbra
but not as robust as textools
ok and what is my chance of getting banned if i use it and dont tell anyone just so i can wear yotsuyu's dress\
0%
bless, i'll check out textools, tysm
although penumbra does allow adding and removing mods without restarting the game
Arenāt mods only client-side for the most part?
they're entirely client side
bit of a hypothetical here, but if you were to do a raid through duty finder for say a mount or like a piece of gear, you have to share the loot drops with the party, and as such, are not guaranteed to acquire said item even if it does drop? am i missing something or is this how it works
o yea i figure others will see what im really wearing but idc, this is a singleplayer game xD (for me anyway)
you roll on them like any other duty
Thatās always how it works?
not sure why raid matters
Unless itās PF with lootmaster
What raid are you talking about tho
raid was just a placeholder, should have said duty
you do all duties through duty finder
even if you use party finder you need to queue through duty finder
depends on type of loot. The totems, for example, you don't have to roll for. Same for triple triad cards.
But mounts and gear you will always have to roll for unless it's party finder lootmaster setting fixed party
for lvling from 81-90 as dps, should I do EW dungeons or should I do bozja/zandor instead? which one is faster?
dungeons
the triad cards in alliance raids are rolled on however
if you need to roll on it it isnt guaranteed as other people can also roll on it
what are you referring to when you say 'rolling for gear' ? i haven't delved into the loot much, but i can only remember the need greed pass thing
thats rolling
oh yeah this is a true caveat, for some reason allied raid cards aren't given automagically
Thatās what we mean
you literally roll a number
basically think of need as "priority i want this", greed as "i want this but will prob just sell it or something, not actually use it" and pass as "i don't want this". You can only need on gear you can currently use for your job, and if one person needs and everyone else greeds then it 100% goes to the needer. If 2 people need and 2 people greed, then it's 50% between the two needers
If 4 people greed and 0 people need, it's 25% between the greeders.
Couple questions about Palace of the Dead, it says we can't proceed to floor 100 since our party wiped once (we wiped at floor 90), I take it we need to start over at floor 50, right? And is floor 100 the only no party KO check that you need to pass? As in, can we safely have a party KO after floor 100 and not have to totally start all over again from an interval of 50?
ik how that system works, but does this mean there is no surefire way to acquire items you want, even if they drop, due to the nature of loot acquisition? Other than like mass-coordinated parties
Yes
thats correct
thats the whole point
unless its a piece of gear for your specific job and youre the only one on that job
and you hit need
that's what "lootmaster" is, the "mass-coordinated parties". Basically that's when people who trust each other are like "alright we want all the loot to go to this guy" or "we trust this guy to distribute the loot"
But frankly it's not very common, most seem to just leave it to RNG
i seee
Okay but like Nobody uses Lootmaster
ive only ever seen lootmaster used in statics and treasure maps
i can see it getting frustrating, but manageable so long as you are only gunning for gear that is endemic to your current class
there are definitely people that use lootmaster in pf
yeah because there was a thing called "loot ninjaing" where people couldn't trust the lootmaster and they just steal all the loot and block everyone
but things like mounts and such seem like they'd be a pain to get
so basically lootmaster is 99.9% limited to guilds and friend parties
thats why you get totems
theyre pity items
oof i just said guild i meant "free company" pls dont @ me as a filthy wow player
you collect enough totems and are guaranteed the mount
Books are from savages, you need 8 for an item
the use of them is different
in extremes it's a pity system
in ultimates it's the entire loot system
another reason why glamour is the endgame i suppose?
books are just the same as in extremes
since BiS gear seems fairly easy to get
bis gear is time gated
You have to do savage for BIS
savage is easy
and most glamour isnt from duties
are you referring to poetics?
no
You can't go past floor 100 if you have even one party wipe. If you can get to 100 without a complete party wipe, you can progress to further floors, all the way up to 200. If you have a full party wipe past floor 100, however, that's it. Can't restart from 101, etc. 100 is the normal cap for matching. Matched parties can't go past floor 100. You'll have to start from a lower floor to make another attempt at 100+.
yeah i knew poetics wouldn't be for endgame gear, but i thought you were referring to early game BiS mb
bis only applies to max level
yea like the poetics gear usually can get you basically BiS for a given level, with some caveats ( I think the final tier savage weapon is like 5 item levels above the poetics weapons, and the secondary stats don't matter nearly as much early on )
Well, if that "given level" is 50, 60, 70, or 80, that is
sadly you can't buy 60 poetics gear until you beat 3.0 Heavansward
Wrong
wait what
Ye
no one told me this
58 msq
only HW is like that
Itās the only one thatās different
Oh, so you have to wait in Stormblood and Shadowbringers, but not Heavansward? wild
Since the area changed since itās 3.0 release
Current idelshire is much different there wasnt even a center building in the original patch
i had no idea
ok, well i appreciate the help, it seems gunning for specific loot may be a bigger timesink than expected 
not really
Yep
its only a big timesink for like alliance raids
i know coerthas was wildly different in 1.0 compared to 2.0 (did you know it wasn't even snowy???) but i never knew about the idyll revamp
coerthas was different because of lore reasons
yeah those will be the worst
also i outright cannot play pvp on free trial correct?
no you cant

Would give that a watch for more game history
What message are you getting? Does it just say there's a que?
It's down
Yes it is down until they find it stable enough to resume. It'll come back tomorrow at the earliest.
What do you do with dupe minions?
Sell em
I was wondering if you could transfer your home world across data centres the way you can across worlds in one data centre
Thatās still using the home world transfer service, which is disabled until Tuesday
I believe so. I know that a regular feature is that you can pay to transfer home worlds; they're adding cross DC travel. So after Tuesday will it be possible to transfer your home world between DCs?
Once they deem it stable enough, yes.
Ok, thank you both!
Huh, no Hildy in ShB?
nope, they took a break from him because they were worried he was feeling one-note
Easily
only for people to say they wanted him back so, we're getting him back with EW. 6.1 released the first of his new quests
how about lvl 80?
how do u find b rank hunt enemies
70 dungeons as a level 80
i googled spawn locations and canāt find any
it's a bit random but
Look up the specific enemy
i did
once you get the b rank bill just fly around the map until you get a notif telling you about the mark
like a game of hot/cold
iāll try that
the compass worked, thanks
6.2 is in how many weeks?
Month and a half?
Not yet. All we have is some time in late August.
ok ty ty
ya u can
This might be stupid but, I have the Endwalker DLC but for some reason I'm still not able to make a male Viera (or a Viera at all, same with Hrothgar). Do I need to fully reach that part of the storyline in order to do create one?
Oh! That actually might be the issue. This is my first time having expansions for this game in general so I forgot about putting codes into Mogstation
