FC Submarines: Dive into Rank Requirements
Unlocking the FFXIV Free Company Submarine: A Comprehensive Guide
Dive into the underwater world of Final Fantasy XIV with your Free Company's very own submarine! This guide details everything you need to know about acquiring and utilizing this amazing vessel, introduced in the Stormblood expansion.
Getting Your FC Submarine
First, ensure your Free Company (FC) exists and ideally has reached rank 6. Reaching rank 6 unlocks access to all necessary vendors for Ceruleum Tank purchases. Achieving this rank is relatively straightforward; encourage FC members to participate in various in-game activities such as dungeon clearing, leveling, crafting, gathering, and turn-ins.
Once at rank 6, locate the Company Workshop within your FC house. Interact with the schematic board to obtain the submersible blueprint. Gather the required materials and craft the submarine using your FC's crafting log.
However, the journey doesn't end there. You'll also need Dive Credits to embark on underwater voyages. Purchase these credits (10,000 Company Credits each) from Resident Caretaker NPCs located in the following housing districts:
- Empyreum: X:10, Y:12
- Lavender Beds: X:12, Y:8
- The Mist: X:11, Y:11
- Shirogane: X:10, Y:14
- The Goblet: X:11, Y:10
Finally, register your newly crafted submarine via the voyage control panel in the Company Workshop.
