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 covers everything you need to know about acquiring and utilizing this exciting Stormblood addition.
Getting Your FC Submarine
First, ensure your Free Company (FC) exists and ideally has reached rank 6. This rank unlocks access to necessary vendors for purchasing Ceruleum Tanks. Reaching rank 6 is achievable through various in-game FC activities like dungeon clearing, leveling, crafting, and gathering.
Once at rank 6, visit your FC's workshop. Interact with the schematic board to obtain the submersible recipe. After gathering the required materials, craft the submarine using your FC's crafting log.
Next, acquire Dive Credits. These are purchased from Resident Caretaker NPCs in any housing district:
- 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
Remember, you need FC rank 6 and 10,000 Company Credits per Dive Credit. Finally, register your newly crafted submarine via the voyage control panel in the FC workshop.
