FFXIV 2.0 Random Speculation/Question Thread XII: End Of An Era - ASK YOUR QUESTIONS HERE!

[sietch]

I seem to have hit a dead end? I guess I need to dungeon. I'm level 15 and the only quest I have is To Guard a Guardian. Tried it twice now and it's the only thing that's given me some trouble to do. Can't find any other quests and I'm out of leves for the day. Mindless grind?

You need to complete that quest (and a few more storyline quests) to be able to enter Sastasha (1st dungeon) in the first place actually. It can be especially tough for Marauders since they can't get any subbed abilities from other classes until release, but it's a pretty hard fight no matter the region, so don't feel like you're a bad for having trouble. Or maybe I'm just a bad too, which is entirely possible. I recommend grabbing some Hi-Potions if you don't have any, and you should definitely make sure you have Antidotes ready as the demon mob inflicts a nasty poison. Leveling to 16 isn't too hard if it comes to that or you just want any edge you can get before trying again, I recommend bouncing back and forth between FATEs.

So what does Dragoon/LNC wear end gamewise in looks vs a Warrior/MRD? Always been a fan of plate looking armor and still trying to decide on what class I want to lvl up 1st.

Can only speculate but it seems that DRG and LNC have access to low-level Haubergeon-like armor.

I'm sure this has been asked, but I've finished the main quest line in the Beta and still don't know how/where to dye gear, nor how to get my Chocobo as a party member. What do I need to do for that stuff? And where are all the minions coming from? lol.

Thanks for any help.

[Fereydoon]

Dying gear is a quest in Ul'dah, not sure on the position. Chocobo as a party member, find a Wandering Minstrel near the Grand Companies, he has an option for it. Minions come from a shop in each town, Black Rabbit Trader in Gridania near the Crystal, for example.

Is the ability to affix materia still level 15 craft atm?

[Eanae]

Dye is a level 15 quest in one of the harbors in Western Thanalan. You need an Orange Juice.

[Obsidian]

Sweet, thanks guys.

[Sephiroth]

When you reach level 20 are guildleves only in one location? EG Quarrymill. I could never find 20s in Thanalan but I've found 25s. I don't know where 25s are in the Shroud, I think Tranquil are 30?

Edit: Nevermind you can get 25s at Quarrymill too lol.

And now a question I can't figure out myself. How do you use your chocobo in battle? I got the ability to use him from the guy, put the actions on my hotbar yet I can't figure out how to summon him to battle.

I do recall seeing that we will be fully able to change are 1.0 apperances, correct?

Yep, one time chance after release.

Another phase4 question

Did they confirm how world transfer will happen?

Aka will I start phase 4 on my 1.0 server, or will I start on my transferred server. Or maybe it can happen in the middle of phase 4 ?

Transfer will happen at the start of phase 4 and you'll be on your new server.

I cool

[Stromgarde]

What is the command to call your chocobo as a battle companion? I already unlocked it at the wandering minstrel, but I can't find the button.

[Niiro]

Check the actions and traits menu under pet commands, it's probably there.

[Stromgarde]

Yeah I found those, but they're all grayed out.

Edit: Found it in the Active Help menu. Apparently you need a bunch of Gysahl Greens to call your chocobo, and use it like you would any other consumable.

[Niiro]

Hm, dunno then I haven't unlocked it yet, was taking a guess.

[Sigmakan]

Yep, just move the greens to your hotbar and click away! Here are three NPCs who sell them:

[Kainos]

can we exchange cracked materia yet?

[Stromgarde]

can we exchange cracked materia yet?

Per http://lodestone.finalfantasyxiv.com...48a963d6e53673 (about halfway down) not til phase 4.

[Obsidian]

How do you start the Action quests for classes you didn't start the Beta as? I'm on LNC and in the Lancer's guild in Gridania, but there are no quest markers here, and the guild master just talks about what a Lancer is.

Never mind, I'm dumb.
