nope
guess i really shouldnt be doing anything else before rushing the MSQ then. everything gets down to flying in the end. but i dont like rushing main quests...
99% of stuff is perfectly doable without flying but hunts specifically are helped by it a lot. I wouldn't worry about it for now, especially since IIRC you unlock it pretty late into 2.0 MSQ.
The consolegames wiki has a map of the spawn points for B rank (weekly hunt board targets), A rank (4-6hrs respawn) and S rank (48-80+ hour respawn). Here's the entry for Bloody Mary: https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Bloody_Mary
When you get close, you'll receive a message in your chat log that tells you what direction it's in:
But yes, finish 2.0 MSQ so you can get flying, it's a HUGE difference.
Job actions being next week is so scary, that snuck on me so fast. The expansion wait is a lot easier than I thought but now that FFXVI DLC is done, all I can do is wait for Dawntrail. This month and a half is going to feel like a year. Excitement is hitting me though!!!! Bring on the job actions!!
Likely won't be caught up by launch which means I'm going to have to dodge sooo many spoilers RIP
Pretty sure you can just discard the bill if it's annoying you that much. My guess is that no one else is killing them, you're just over-estimating how big the detection radius is. You still have to get decently close to each spot to get a notification if they're there or not.
You need to be stocking up on retainer fantasias now. And dyes.
I didn't consider the retainer Fantasia. You're right. I wonder how much dyes will go up. Next time I get Pure White or Jet Black I'm gonna save them. I also have over 850k island cowries so getting those other dyes will be cake.
Alright, I started. I'm on the adamantoise server, in limsa limosa as an Arcanist. I am level 10.
I believe that once I hit level 30, I can upgrade to a summoner and/or scholar. Which one is better?
Also, what can I do to get to level 30 quickly? I just met Y'shtola. I heard there is a road to 80 buff…how can I get that? 😩
asking for newbie advice

Summoner is DPS, Scholar is Healer. You'll get faster queues for Healer than DPS but more responsibility as you are expected to keep Tanks and DPS alive through dungeons / trials. DPS smack enemies the hardest.
It just depends what you wanna do, neither are necessarily 'better'.
also MSQ for exp, you get more than enough exp doing the story, and that's the majority of what you'll be using your job for anyway - you get something called Daily Roulettes at some point but these will be useful for levelling alt jobs, story is best for your main job.
Summoner is damage focused while Scholar is a healer so it comes down to your role preference first.
EXP buff is on any world called a "Preferred World". These are servers that are usually new and have low populations.
You don't need to worry about EXP on your first job at all and the focus should be on the main scenario quests which should give you plenty.
If you absolutely need other EXP buffs, eating any kind of food gives a small multiplier and Free Companies can provide buffs too (not available in Free Trial though).
On top of what has already been said: Summoner/Scholar are unique from other jobs in that they share levels. If you're not feeling one then switch to the other.
You can't upgrade jobs until you reach a certain point in the main story anyway so there's no point grinding to level 30. The road to 80 buff is for characters created on preferred servers.
The ninjutsu are:
Any one ninjutsu: weak single target damage.
Two different ending in blue: AoE damage
Two different ending in orange: Strong single target damage
Two different ending in yellow: Weak damage and Bind.
Three different ending in blue: speed boost.
Three different ending in orange: Dirt puddle that damages enemies inside.
Three different ending in yellow: Decent damage and gives a buff that lets you Trick Attack outsite of Hide.
They'd float briefly in FFXI when you activated your strategems (Aetherflow). Wish SCH had a visual rework for Aetherflow to incorporate that kind of vibe back in. But yes, I very much agree.

From meme to reality.
Still amazing, no one expected that, but I guess that what happens when you tempt fate lol
I wonder if CS3 will ever consider making an anime of ARR and then allowing players to skip it straight into Heavensward for free. Just make them do the beginner role tutorial thing from that La Noscea location (I always forget what that shit is called). Maybe add job specific ones to learn the buttons. Its not like the level 50 rotations are particularly complicated. An anime of ARR would be pretty basic but should at least have a good cliffhanger.
I feel like that would be a decent compromise. Duty support will make up for bad queue times in ARR dungeons and the Roulette will always help.
Anything that will optionally prune the weaker (and purposely simplified) parts of the game is a plus I think. People who want the experience would still have the option. Don't pull a Bungie.
They could slowly do anime seasons that will let players skip very old content with bad balancing and still get the story as the game gets older and longer.
Anime is hip with the kids! This would never happen of course but I can dream. It would be an interesting experiment.

I need to get back into the game before Dawntrail and finish the patch MSQ. But I also need to learn to play SAM again, and now on a controller. What's the best way to get some practice without just standing fighting a target dummy? Can SAM solo Variant dungeons? Because I have to do all of those and figured that might be good casual content I can do without messing things up for everyone else.
As someone who is ferrying a friend through ARR right now (they're up to Stone Vigil), I feel this, my god. I told them they should play ARR at least once just for, like, background on who everyone is and the basic setup of like aether and crystals and Hydaelyn and stuff, but it's so long and so rote and the class rotations aren't fun, flying is unlocked ludicrously late, the maps are fucking awful (if you want multi-floor buildings and NPCs dispersed throughout these floors, your fucking map should have floors), etc., etc.... I'd forgotten how bad some of this is lmao.
Any class can solo variant dungeons (just take the tank/heal variant dungeon actions, the cooldowns for those actions are really low anyway).
You could do Variant Dungeons solo, or run Duty Support Dungeons if you want to play entirely by yourself. But I think Alliance Raids are also good for practicing since you have 23 other players to pick up your slack if you're worried you'll mess up, and Alliance Raid roulette queue times are pretty quick for DPS. I also think it gives you a better feel for practicing your rotation when the boss doesn't die super quickly and you also still have to do mechanics.
job action trailerrrrrrr come onnnnn
I hope they skip the "we show it so called influencers first and you get only their reactions"-bullshit this time.

Lmao Ironmouse just busted out the PotD night pegasus someone gifted her and has no idea how rare it is.

Scroll down to bloody Mary and it will show all possible spawn locations.
i checked one of those, i just couldnt find it anywhere even by going through them (or at least i thought it did). just threw the flyer away (thanks to whoever told me that!)
not doing this shite till i unlock flying mounts
I think it's anywhere between 12-15 mil gil on EU.
It tends to be in supply too on the marketboards so it's quite accessible if you want it.
Did they do that before? As far as I remember they always do the long live letter first, media tour stuff comes out later.
I'm pretty happy with DRK at the moment, what would you change? All I can really think of is low level adjustments so syncing down isn't as annoying. Even just having Oblation early on would be nice.
It's accessible with money for sure but they are all sprouts going through Toto-rak/MSQ for the first time on base classes. So I thought it was funny that someone just traded that to her and she had no idea.
Also they apparently liked it enough to stream for 15 hours and are planning on slowing going through the MSQ with a long stream every month or so. So HW in 2025 (maybe) haha
I can remember vividly that this happened and how much that pissed me off.
My point was more the cost is a good way to estimate how rare a thing is since it lets you compare with other drops that can be sold.
Streamer getting gifted mounts like that is def a thing too. Especially the golden gil mounts have been very popular as a give away from viewers to their streamers.
I don't tend to buy mounts but I can imagine there aren't too many that are still available in game as a drop that sell for 10-12 mill. Just eyeballing though. And of course golden mounts are there to be a gil sink so why not
Overall there aren't too many indeed. For that price range of 10-15+ mil it's usually the faux leave mounts and criterion mounts and maybe that golden delubrum mount? And then there is that pink elephant from treasure maps. Game in general doesn't add market tradable mounts that often though.
They've added a BUNCH of marketable mounts starting in ShB, though some aren't at the 10m mark.
- Khloe has Incitatus (~10m), Calydontis (~8-10m), Troll (~10m), Wondrous Lanner (~10m), Magicked Children's Bed (8-10m), Sabotendor de Luna (8-10m).
- Orthos has a mount which sells for ~4-5m.
- In addition to the Bozja gold mecha mount, Dalriada has the Deinonychus, which sells for ~14+m. Poor Construct 14 from Bozja is only 1m :(
- In addition to the Pink Elephant mount, there are two other mounts you can get from EW treasure maps. Phaethon is around 4-6m, and Alkonost is under 1m at this point.
- Don't forget Island Sanctuary! With the last round of updates, they added lockboxes and such that have two mounts. One is ~500k and the other is ~4-5m
- And for those with the deepest pockets, the Bi-color gemstone mount (Wivre) is between 90-100m
It's pretty funny to look at the list sorted by expansion. It's like, two marketable mounts in 3.x, 4 in 4.x, 16 in 5.x and 17 in 6.x.

Thanks, will keep that in mind.
Right! Can do some raids after I get comfy with the basics in Variants.
Considering there is a live letter around the same time as the media tour, i'd say its shown to public before the content creators.
I am sad that it looks like im not getting to go this time though lol the endwalker digital tour was a blast.

People who don't roll on loot at the end of the raid in the hopes everyone else will lose patience: 🖕
