FF14 Housing 101 - After You Buy Land

[@DefeatMedia]

If you're watching this because you just got a plot, you will definitely want to watch this! kzbin.info/www/bejne/apXCq4uHh61_bck

[@alrdye]

Clean cut, collared shirt, and a sweater vest! How nice to see a male KZbinr that goes out of his way to look nice in a video. Also, the content is helpful and well presented. I really appreciate that you aren't racing through at breakneck speed. Good change of pace from many gaming videos.

[@ShePlaysIt]

I cried when I lost my house. I was unable to log in because I lost my job for a bit...by the time I was able to play again, my house was gone and my stuff was gone too. I quit the game for about 2 years after that because the gil was incredibly difficult to save up for on a JP server. Didn't come back until my boyfriend and I started up together on an entirely new server.

[@dantelundell9386]

YOUR STUFF ISNT GONE! You can pick it up from an NPC! I think its the calamity salvager but you might have to google around, but I repeat, it's NOT gone!

[@WonderBlubber]

I was looking to move my small to a medium and almost bought a new permit in anticipation. You saved me a million gil with this video. THANK YOU

[@Oysterkeeper]

Just got my house after around 20-25 hours of just clicking the placards. Thanks for the comprehensive introduction to being a homeowner.

[@DefeatMedia]

Congratulations!

[@Diandredofus]

Kinda sweet that you think someone would just shell out 42M for a 1M permit.. It was used to transfer money around. Possibly even RMT.

[@Taphosthewarlock]

Almost certainly RMT.

[@spacepuppie]

The reason there's an option to move to the front door, is in case you get stuck and can't move for any reason. It also keeps people from griefing others by trapping them in the house. It's not because people are lazy =(

[@IRedpunk]

Definitely, someone with that amount of gil isn’t so clueless

[@jessshnarcky1089]

I was checking out apartments and I was lucky there was that function. This guy had made a loot cave with no entrance.

[@holy9781]

Way to work around it though,I can glitcha door

Hi, I'm looking to get into housing and this was very informative and nicely edited! Thank you for sharing!

[@TheSuspira]

This was very helpful. I just won a house in the lottery and didn't know about permits or menus. Thanks!!

[@TomTheOwl68]

Just got a small house. This guide is very good, thank you.

[@DefeatMedia]

I also have a housing glitches guide people find helpful. Congrats

[@cmciff4054]

so helpful, relatively new player to FFXIV w my fam and we are looking to get into housing with the 6.3 expansion. really helpful info and well made video.

[@tirynne5050]

I've watched so many videos today to help with my first house (got one in Ishgard woot!) and this was the first legitimately helpful one!

[@DefeatMedia]

Glad to hear it helped! Please also check out my Housing Glitch video. It's still relevant and if this was helpful, that one will be Very helpful. Cheers and congrats on the house!

[@MultiEpicnezz]

Pro tip for when you get stuck. If you move in the same direction for like 5 seconds into a wall or prop that you can't move through, the game will give you noclip for a bit and you will walk right through it. You can use this to walk through basically anything in player housing.

[@cincin577]

I'm newish to ff14 (few months). I first found you from your Housing (glitching) guide video - it was the best! How exciting that when Materia gets added to dc travel, I'll be able to connect with you and leave a comment/like in your books! Thank you so much for your videos 💝 I'd really like to see your commentry on some housing and maybe how some people might have put together a design of a particular object! Help train our eyes for more detail and appreciation! Also might help you connect with some other audiences and shout out to other designers and vice versa 🤩 I now have some courage to build a Medium as I would like to spend my gil and time with housing. I wish you every success! 💓

[@DefeatMedia]

Thanks so much!

[@dtell8275]

Fruity Snacks actually has a FC house turned aquarium on Crystal, forget where exactly, but it does have every single fish on display. It's done very well, highly recommend if anyone hasn't checked it out already!

[@ColtFotiFive]

Amazing production quality. Sold me on subscribing before the 30 second mark

[@ZukiraPhaera]

The move to front door function is nice if you get yourself glitched into the wall, ceiling floor or stairs when playing around with things. I've gotten myself 'stuck' more than once.

[@nicolascordier12]

Just found out about your content, it's absolutely great! I just beat housing savage and watching this video was a delight. :-)

[@HastolNafor]

I had no idea about the mannequins. Useful tip, thank you.

[@c1plas]

I was expecting to see the actual different permits, wood, composite or stone.

[@babaspector]

If anyone's reading this it seems like you can't use a permit for a different residential area. I just tried it. Probably got changed at some point.

[@lotharschramm5000]

This is an amazing video, very professional too. Thank you for this.

[@EvoZimsHQ]

Move to front door is there for when/if you accidentally glitch yourself or get stuck and can’t escape

[@Hitsugix]

Or when you're in someone's house that's full of walls and doors and you feel lost. xD

[@Aertistic]

Very comprehensive! Thank you! I think the only thing you didn't cover was the chocobo stables.

[@amanojaku5203]

Yeah I bought a Kugane house permit for my new house which doesn’t go on the house in Ul’Dah. Cheers just blew 420,000 buying it for nothing. Not very helpful.

[@madhatterclub666]

in old days it was 6 months then they lower it to 45 days to force you to pay your sub every other month its a money grab for square it should be 6 months its hard to find a stable job anymore

[@EllionGrey]

This was super helpful. Thank you! :)

[@AwafiKnight]

Spent 5 days, and about 60 hours of total clicking time to finally get a house (beachside Shirogane!) It wasnt too bad as I was able to be clicking away on my ps4 controllerr while working fron home. But goddamn do my hands hurt like hell. I was seriously considering buying the game on pc just so i could use an autoclicker as i dont think its available on ps4.

[@bloodyDeagle77]

You didn't explain what to do with the permits at all. I bought them okay, and I can't right click use them. So what am I to do now lmao.

[@emilyspector2728]

This is perfect! I want to do mine as Japanese style. So not sure if there are ones that are Asian based. I hope this maintenance they are doing at the time I’m writing I HOPE we get our houses that we won. Thank you again!!!

[@ossian8009]

I can't find any information of where to get housing permits other than buying from the plot itself or the mb. Where where do the people selling on mb GET the permit? I haven't found any information on whether they can be crafted either.

[@DefeatMedia]

Try this one:) kzbin.info/www/bejne/rWqUfq2paZ2ca8k

[@ossian8009]

@Crushing Defeat Media Thanks for answering, I think however you misunderstood the question. You only say in the video there are 2 ways to get the permits; plot and mb. But players who sell them on the mb must have gotten them somehow to begin with. If they bought themselves directly from the plot it makes no sense selling cheaper. If they bought cheap themselves from mb to sell at higher price the original vendor must have gotten it somehow. So is there another way, like crafting? Or do people really have such bad economic sense they buy at plot for 450k to sell cheaper on the mb?

[@DefeatMedia]

People buy the wrong ones, or hope people don't know how to buy it, and they are used for RMT. No crafting or anything like that.

[@ForzaS1]

I'm not sure I comprehended one part too well earlier in the video; are you able or NOT able to construct a house from a different location to another? For example, a Hingan style house built on Riviera (Mist), territory?

[@DefeatMedia]

At this point you can put any style of house on any plot in any zone. Just has to be the right size (cottage, medium, mansion). Cheers

[@vegassims7]

I never knew that about entering the house and NOT the game to keep the house

[@raygm6303]

Amazing video!! Thank you very much for sharing!

[@nighttimestalker]

Thise large permit sales are most likely pkayer buying GIL. Most sites do it by buying stuff from you on the market

[@DefeatMedia]

Hadn't even considered that when I made the video. My criminal mind is very weak. Makes sense though and a couple people have pointed it out. I think you're right 💯. Cheers

[@nighttimestalker]

@@DefeatMedia No problem. I do know some people will charge come items exceptionally high as some player are desperate for them and will pay lol.

[@Ryomaaaaaaaaa]

Btw we were so lucky to find a big house in lavander bed 3 days ago.

[@DefeatMedia]

Congrats that's big news!

[@leocreuu3254]

What do you mean any type of house on any land

[@LittleHobbit13]

What is the impact of which type of permit (wood, stone, composite) you buy? Does it affect what your house looks like, or does that only come down to what walls/windows/etc you choose?

[@DefeatMedia]

It does determine the default look, but most people change from that very quickly.

[@mothman84]

New player here... I've got questions about this 45-day rule. I must be missing something here. I'm shocked and appalled! What if you unsub for a couple of months? Is it all gone?! Your magnificent villa, that you spent hundreds of millions on... Gone?! What if you're in the hospital for more than 45 days?! It happens...

[@DefeatMedia]

First, welcome to FF14. And yes, you lose the land, you keep the stuff, but it's the main way housing becomes available. People stop playing. You get lots of email and in game warnings. But your character needs to step foot in your house every 45 days to keep it:) Cheers

[@mothman84]

@@DefeatMedia Hmm, I'm happy to hear that not everything is lost, I'll learn more about this. It's a shame, though. I was so looking forward to housing in FFXIV, and now... This is a huge turn off. Thank you for your time, have a nice day! :ll

[@emilyspector2728]

Ok, my retainers found an Oriental table and a Hingan sofa. I want to use them, but I can't because they're not in the storeroom??? NO idea how to do that as they are in my inventory. So do you basically buy everything? I mean I can also craft it but I still have no clue. The SIMS were easier lol!

[@DefeatMedia]

Housing menu from the bottom right menu. One of the options that should pop up at the bottom is place in storeroom. Your storeroom is separate storage from your inventory. Hopefully this at least gets you started. Good luck!

[@lemonFW]

yo this vid is great, thx alot

[@DefeatMedia]

You are very welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@TrueJamo]

Do those NPC's in your house pay better for items than the Retainer? Because you mentioned having someone to sell items to that your retainer received on ventures, but retainers themselves can have items sold to them just like a merchant.

[@DefeatMedia]

I'm taking about selling them straight up, not on the market board. For items that can't be sold on the MB, or sell for less than an NPC vendor will give you. Is there a way to do this with a retainer? Not seeing the option, but if so, you've taught me something:) Cheers

[@TrueJamo]

@@DefeatMedia Oh totally. Yea if you go to your retainer, go to "Sell items in your inventory on the market", and if you're on PC right click on the item you want like when you put it up for MB, there's an option that says "Have Retainer Sell Items". That option vendors it to the Retainer like a regular NPC vendor.

[@urielvelezb]

Beautiful. I dont know if you like comparisons. I was seeing Mortal Engines and all the arquitecture give me a resemblance to Final Fantasy. In the future, somewhere, will be interesting to know your opinion about that.

[@diegolobo2631]

hey man, just started watching your videos. dont know if you will read this, but i wanted to say thanks for the effort you put into the videos. you got a smooth voice too my friend. you got yourself a faithful subscriber. you deserve way more.

[@rhysmahuru545]

Is there anyway of increasing the amount of exterior furnishing without having to buy a bigger house

[@DefeatMedia]

Unfortunately no.

[@mikebecker1491]

hey love the Vid can you tell me how i can get a Mailbox for my house ?

[@DefeatMedia]

There's Moogle Letter Box and Regal Letter Box. Easiest way is market board Try different servers on your data center for the best prices;) Or they can be crafted. Regal is better, it spins! Cheers and thanks for watching!

[@rolandegger9077]

great video,thank you !

[@tonyjc]

Can't you just sell straight to your retainer not having to go to the venders

[@TierHarribel]

So if you have a house in a particular style, let's say Oasis, can you later change that style to glade if you so wish?

[@DefeatMedia]

Yes, absolutely. Just need to apply the housing facade you want. Change it whenever you want. Works like changing your gear:) and now any housing style can be used in any housing zone. Cheers

[@TierHarribel]

@@DefeatMedia Amazing! Thank you so much for your response, I've subbed!

[@iamsyntai2565]

You have to "use" the house or it gets demolished after 45 days. What does "use" refer to? Just stepping on the land/going through the entrance? I'd like to know =)

[@DefeatMedia]

You have it correct. You just need to physically have your character inside the house at least once every 45 days. SE will also send email reminders if you get close. I'm a big supporter of this policy! We saw the worst housing draught ever when this was suspended due to the pandemic. But it looks to be back in place currently. Cheers

Used to play it since classic, switched to RP in Cata. Wanted to try out FF 14 because I love a good housing system. Got really lucky, after 3 days of mashing my numpad keys I just got a house and just wanted to make sure - so I won't lose it =)

i love the guide, but im still confused about how to make sure im buying the plot / house for an FC house and NOT a single person house.

[@DefeatMedia]

That one I'm not sure of, because I'm not an FC leader. But I expect it asks you which you want to purchase it for at the time. Good question, cheers

[@kathynguyen608]

Be sure you have purchasing rights (Rank Settings). Afterwards, when you buy at the placard, have the money on your character, follow the same steps at the placard, but you'll have a "Free Company Housing" option right under Personal. Just be sure to not misclick. There's sadly no way to make the cursor "default" to FC Housing.

[@DefeatMedia]

@@kathynguyen608 awesome help thank you!

[@morganclark7142]

how do i get that Aetheryte? its so cute!

[@DefeatMedia]

Thank you! The Miniature Aetheryte and Deluxe Garden patch can be purchased from the housing vendors in each zone. Then you just move the mini aetheryte into the patch, and voila:) I've seen people combine the aetheryte with lots of outdoor housing items, but it fits perfect with the scarecrow in the deluxe garden patch. Cheers and thanks for stopping by!

[@thehipstershrimp6898]

nice videos keep it up

[@CrackKwonDo]

Thanks for this. I’m currently thinking of buying a house and didn’t know anything about the permits or various things you can do inside with the vendors. Btw if anyone sees this and has an answer, what’s a fair price on a small house currently? Wondering if I should buy one before 5.2 or try my luck and wait for the moratorium to cease.

[@DefeatMedia]

Max plot price for a small (1st class) is 3.75 million. So it depends on if you like the plot, and if it's worth the extra 1.5mil minimum upcharge (could be a 2.2 million upcharge depending on the plot). Not trying to plug myself, but my video "How to Find and Buy a House v2" might help. Cheers

[@WhoThisMonkey]

Costs 1m?! Damn, I started a couple of days ago, I'm only level 38 😂

[@NoNa-zc7ul]

That’s just the permit, the plot cost 3 to 40 million gil depending on the size ( small, medium or large )

Houses can be tough to get, especially on busy servers. Keep checking as often as you can. Or get an apartment (or fc room) to get started, keep saving for when Ishgard housing comes out, and be ready that day to buy right at launch. Cheers and good luck!

[@Ryomaaaaaaaaa]

Hey man. 5.2 is about to come out. What's the best way to spend my Gil's on for possible flipping? Any tips?

[@DefeatMedia]

Hard to say with confidence without the full patch notes, but... Once it launches, selling The components for ishgard restoration recipes will be profitable. Also folks are/ will be levelling Fisher to do ocean fishing. Maybe there's something there? Facet gathering/crafting gear is very cheap right now, but will it stay that way? Personally, it's a gamble right now and I'm waiting for more info:) Cheers

@@DefeatMedia Look me up at Oromis Alfinkin on Crystal Server NA. Loadstone for the 5.4 Ishgard Restoration had me ranked in 2 categories. I got 6th in Leatherworker and 27th in Goldsmith in same contest. Wasn't my intention , but I saw Goldsmith was going up a lot, so I switched to LW on day 3 of contest so I wouldn't have to go totally crazy on pts to place. Firmament Saint is hard grinding , let me tell you it makes furniture and other high LV crafting look like child's play in comparison. I found one contest that I said "never again" and that was it. I originally joined the game in 2017 DEC, and got to Omnicrafter in the Old days. I Recall when ranking up crafters was a huge deal. When top armor didn't sell for 200K, it sold for 1.2 million unmelded, and when it took cross class skills and mastery of unique skill in each class to craft everything. When I came back from my 18 month Hiatus last year, I was disgusted with how easy they had made crafting. It dropped prices so much It was way harder to make gill.

I believe that 42mil was the result of someone doing RMT for gil. One of the ways that people get their gils after purchasing them with real money is to get them via MB. This makes the deal more legit than trading it directly.

[@lostarsm9240]

Don’t get a house. You’ll only get your heartbroken if rl rips you away for 80 days or longer… it is not worth it. It’s a shackle to keep you subbed to the game even when it is best for you your emotional and financial health to step away. It makes a return to the game after a long hiatus a painful one…all of your seasonal and even mogstation purchased furnishings…gone. Truly… There really needs to be more videos about the dangers and the criticisms of this broken system that should’ve never been implemented before they found a fix to the limitation of even just retrieving your furnishings no matter how long it takes one to return back to the game. It. Is. Not. Worth. It.
