Erincalling: /* Aquarium Capacity */ spelling fix: fishs -> fishes

[[File:aquariums1.jpg|400px|right]]
{{see also|Housing}}
Aquariums, released in [[Patch 3.4]], are a type of [[Furnishing|interior furnishing]] [[Housing Items|housing item]] that allows you to display [[fish]] caught from the various reaches of [[Eorzea]] in a [[Free Company Housing|free company house]], [[Personal Housing|personal house]], [[Private Chamber|private chamber]], or [[apartment]].

==Lore==
{{quotation|[http://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/pr/special/3_4_Soul_Surrender/ FFXIV Patch 3.4 Soul surrender Promotional Site]|Your prized fish will go unnoticed no longer with an aquarium in the house! They're available in four sizes to accommodate aquatic creatures of all kinds. The tank can also be dressed up with one of several designs to show off your latest catch in style.}}

==Customizing Aquariums==
===Water===
Before placing fish in an aquarium, players may choose to fill the tank with either freshwater or saltwater. This will dictate which types of fish can be placed in the aquarium. Please be advised that, in order to change the water type, any fish in the tank must be removed. Freshwater and saltwater fish cannot be placed in an aquarium together.

===Aquariums per Estate===
Starting with [[patch 4.3]], multiple aquariums are now allowed per estate regardless of aquarium size:
{| class="wikitable sortable" style= "text-align: center"
|-
! Estate Size
! Max Aquariums
|-
| Private Chamber / Apartment || 4
|-
| Cottage || 6
|-
| House || 8
|-
| Mansion || 10
|-
|}

===Aquarium Capacity===
Fish have been categorized into four sizes: small, medium, large, and extra large. Larger fish will occupy more space capacity in an aquarium, leaving less room for other fish. There is no difference between normal quality and high quality fish.

{| {{STDT| sortable align-center}}
|-
! Fish Size
! Space Capacity Occupied
! Minimum Tank Tier
|-
| Small (S) || 1 || {{item icon|Tier 1 Aquarium}}
|-
| Medium (M) || 2 || {{item icon|Tier 2 Aquarium}}
|-
| Large (L) || 4 || {{item icon|Tier 3 Aquarium}}
|-
| Extra Large (XL) || 7 || {{item icon|Tier 4 Aquarium}}
|-
|}

Aquariums are available in four sizes, the smallest holding only a single small fish, and the largest holding up to four. Because larger fish take up more room in the aquarium, one must choose carefully which fish they will put on display. Any fish removed from the aquarium will be lost / destroyed.

{| {{STDT| sortable align-center}}
|-
! Aquarium Tier
! Max Capacity
! Max Number Fish
|-
| {{item icon|Tier 1 Aquarium}} || 1 || 1 Fish
|-
| {{item icon|Tier 2 Aquarium}} || 2 || 2 Fish
|-
| {{item icon|Tier 3 Aquarium}} || 4 || 3 Fish
|-
| {{item icon|Tier 4 Aquarium}} || 7 || 4 Fish
|-
|}
*Example 1: The {{item icon|Euphotic Pirarucu}}, an extra large fish, will only fit into a Tier 4 Aquarium.
*Example 2: You can only have a max of 4 {{item icon|Copperfish}}es (small fish) in a Tier 4 Aquarium despite the tank having 7 capacity.

===Accessories===
Accessories in the form of trimmings can be used to change the interior appearance of the water tank. Accessories will be destroyed when removed from the aquarium. Currently there are six trimmings available:
{{Image Gallery|Aquarium Trimmings}}

Players can purchase all tank trimmings except {{item icon|Moonlit Tank Trimmings}} from the following NPCs:
{{vendor list|Brooklet Tank Trimmings}}

{{item icon|Moonlit Tank Trimmings}} are obtained through the duty {{i|The Minstrel's Ballad: Tsukuyomi's Pain}}. They can be also traded or purchased through the [[Market Board]].

==Fish List==
{{section-stub|reason=list incomplete}}
{{see also|Category:Aquarium Fish}}
You can find a list of all the possible fish that can be placed in the aquarium in the Aquarium Settings interface. Any fish removed from the aquarium will be lost/destroyed. There is no difference between normal quality and {{HQ}} [[High Quality]] fish.<ref>{{HQ}} HQ Fish were only possible to catch prior to the release of [[Endwalker]].</ref>

'''Reminder: Freshwater and saltwater fish cannot be placed in an aquarium together.'''

Group 1 looks northwest and scans counterclockwise to find the locations to position, while group 2 looks north and scans clockwise. In some scenarios, players may need to "flex" and use the priority of the other group's. Name originates from a solution to the Gorgomanteia (snakes) mechanic in {{questlink|raid|Abyssos: The Eighth Circle (Savage)}}, wherein players need to drop AoEs on adds that spawned in semi-random locations.

'''Snapshot''' = The time point when a player or enemy is determined to have been hit by an enemy attack or player action. Snapshots for enemy attacks often register upon when the attack cast bar fills and not with the attack animation. May be affected by server latency. Snapshotting is also commonly used to describe the interaction of player actions with party damage buffs. For example, using a damage-over-time (DoT) action such as {{action icon|Dia}} under buffs will increase damage done for its entire duration, even when the buffs wear off. On the other hand, "pets" such as {{action icon|Automaton Queen}} are only affected by currently active buffs, e.g. if a buff is active for only half the time they are summoned, their damage will be boosted during that half only. Similar interactions exist with enemy attacks and damage mitigation actions. For example, if an enemy applies a DoT effect, any mitigation active during the ''initial'' application will last for the entire DoT duration. Conversely, any mitigation used when the DoT is still active will not reduce DoT damage.

For example, prior to [[patch 4.0]], healers toggled {{action icon|Cleric Stance}} to maximize their damage at the cost of inhibiting their healing.

==Upgrading Zodiac Braves to Zodiac Zeta==
Quests: {{questlink|feature|Rise and Shine}} & {{questlink|feature|The Vital Title}}

The upgrade is comprised of 12 Mahatmas of the original Atmas. To upgrade your weapon, you must awaken the Soul of your weapon through a method similar to [[Nexus_Zodiac_Weapons/Quest#Upgrading Novus to Nexus|Novus light farming]]. You need 40 points to awaken each Mahatmas. You can obtain points from [[dungeons]] and [[trials]]. Progress can be viewed from the Zodiac Glass. You will also be notified when ascension is complete in the chat log.

# Talk to Remon in [[Swiftperch]] in [[Western La Noscea]] to complete {{questlink|feature|Rise and Shine}}. Once the quest is complete, you can now have Remon attach Mahatma to your weapon.
# Immediately talk to [[Remon]] in [[Western La Noscea]] again to attach the first available Mahatma for {{tomestone|Poetics|50}} [[Allagan Tomestone of Poetics|Allagan Tomestones of Poetics]].
# Complete each of the 12 Mahatmas individually by running dungeons, raids, or fates until your "'''Mahatma fully awakens a sense of assertion within your Zodiac Weapon'''".
# After each Mahatma awakens, speak with Remon to attach the next available Mahatma. Repeat the process for all 12 Mahatmas.
# Speak with [[Jalzahn]] at the North Shroud and select "Zodiac Weapon of Awakening".

===Notes===
* Mahatma's bonus window is the same as Novus bonus window.
* You must have the relic weapon equipped on the last boss of the dungeon or trial in order to get light credit.
* Dungeons can also be completed undersized. As such, a convenient way to farm light points solo is The Tam-Tara Deepcroft (Level 16). Each run will give you 24 points when not on bonus, meaning 2 runs will complete the current Mahatma. Each run can be completed solo by any level 70 class in under 4 minutes in most cases. Remember that you can keep your normal weapon equipped until the last boss for quicker kills.
* More-accomplished adventurers should consider [[The Aurum Vale]]: at level 100 it can be cleared in under 2m30s, with no need to swap weapons.
After finishing a Mahatma, you can get the next one from [[Remon]] in [[Swiftperch]] for 50 [[Allagan Tomestone of Poetics]]. You need to complete all 12, in order, to upgrade your weapon. They are ordered as follows:

===Completing Mysterious Map===
Solving Mysterious Map is similar to solving [[Treasure Hunt]] map. Before uncovering the treasure chest, the player will need to use {{action icon|Decipher}} and {{Action icon|Dig}} then defeat a group of enemies.

*Players can complete the map with the help of a party but only the owner of the map will receive the Alexandrite. Rest of the party members will get some gil.
*[[Companions|Chocobo Companion]] can be used to make the battle easier.
*The battle is trivial for players significantly above level 50.

In the present day, she is better known as [[Sophia]], one of the incalculably powerful eikons of the [[Warring Triad]].

{{#ev:youtube|2ls7ubGGKxA|350|right|Updated Shadowbringers Guide}}
{{#ev:youtube|wu7sz0kHSKc|350|right|Sophia (Normal) Guide}}
===Phase 1===
*The fight begins with '''Thunder II''', a large conal AoE aimed in the direction that Sophia is facing, immediately followed by '''Thunder III'''.

*'''Thunder III''' is a giant donut AoE emitted from Sophia with a safe spot just inside her hitbox. If players are far enough away, it can also be avoided by standing at max-range, depending on Sophia's position.

*Players must also be wary of '''Aero II''', a large AoE centred on Sophia that deals moderate damage and inflicts a knockback. While neither fatal nor particularly difficult to avoid, players should respect this mechanic later in the fight seeing as the rails on the side of the arena will eventually collapse, allowing players to fall out of the arena to their deaths.

*'''Daughter''', the lower-half of Sophia, will occasionally disappear from beneath her and materialize at the edges of the arena. After doing so, it will charge up and fire a straight line-AoE called '''Light Dew''' across the platform.

*'''Sophia Rush''' is much like the '''Daughter''' attack used by her lower half. Sophia herself will move to the eastern or western edge of the arena and charge a huge straight line-AoE across the platform that must be avoided.

*Sophia will eventually create '''Proximity Markers''' under the feet of players that they must move away from to avoid as much damage as possible.

===Phase 2===
*Sophia begins this phase by casting '''Cloudy Heavens''', making herself invulnerable and marking all players with '''Eternal Doom'''. This debuff can only be cleared by defeating three adds.

*If players are fatally injured while affected by '''Eternal Doom''', they will become mindless zombies, attacking their fellow teammates with no control over their actions.

*'''The First Demiurge''' is a Paladin-based add that utilizes AoE attacks and a directional parry. Players who attack the wrong side during the parry-mechanic will be knocked away. Ideally, this add should be focused last.

*'''The Second Demiurge''' is a Healer-based add which will heal the other adds and also uses a gaze mechanic to confuse any players looking directly at it. Ideally, this add should be slain first.

*'''The Third Demiurge''' is a Lancer-based add that will eventually drop a persistent ice puddle on the ground at its current position. Ideally, this add should be positioned at the side of the arena to prevent the puddle from being too obstructive during Phase 3 and the rest of the current add-phase.

===Phase 3===
For the most part, Phase 3 is very similar to Phase 1, apart from a few new additions.

*From here on, it will now be possible to fall off the platform, though players that do so for any reason can still be resurrected after a brief delay.

*Sophia will eventually use '''{{action icon|Quasar}}''', which creates tethers to the east and west of the platform. Each of these tethers will spawn a '''meteor''' that will slowly fall towards a set of scales on both sides of the platform. Players must determine which side of the arena is safe by calculating the 'weight' of the meteors and moving to the side that weighs the least. On collision, the arena will tilt towards the side that weighs the most and send players sliding in that direction. The larger the weight-difference, the further players will slide.

*There are two types of '''Meteors''' that help calculate the tilt.

*'''Orange Meteors''' have a value of 1 and can appear on both sides of the arena.

*'''Blue Meteors''' have a value of 3 and will only appear on one side.

The best approach to this mechanic is to always move towards the opposite side of any '''Blue Meteors''' and stand at the very edge before the arena tilts.

*Players must also be mindful of the ice puddle left behind by '''The Third Demiruge''' during Phase 2. Before the scales tip, it is best to position yourself so that you don't slide through the puddle.

*Lastly, when Sophia reaches 15% health or less, she will spawn another '''Second Demiruge''' (healer-add) with the same abilities from Phase 2. However, despite being a healer, it cannot heal the boss. Depending on overall DPS, the group must decide between nuking the add to reduce the threat of its gaze attack, or have the off-tank move it away while the group focuses on Sophia to end the fight.

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] [[Hades]]===
{{#ev:youtube|UfmOta0CC5M|350|right|The Dying Gasp Trial Guide }}
Your encounter with Emet-Selch (Hades) takes place within a circular arena overlooking the ruins of Amaurot, deep within the Tempest. Thanks to a small outer railing during the opening phase, players will be incapable of falling over the edge. However, the railing will eventually be destroyed as the fight progresses, meaning players can plummet to their doom if they stray too far. However, there are no notable knockback or movement-based attacks to consider at the time.

Below is a list of all Hades' abilities and phases.

===Phase 1===
*'''Ravenous Assault''' - Hades slashes at his primary target with a vicious tank-buster.

*'''Bad Faith''' - creates a large wall through the centre of the arena that reaches from one end of the platform to the other, with each half of the wall having spikes (arrows) protruding out in different directions. After a brief delay, the spikes will shoot across the platform in the direction they are pointing - one half firing north while the other fires south. To avoid being blasted, players should position themselves behind either side so that the spikes on that side are not pointing in their direction.

*'''Double''' - a buff that causes Hades next '''Dark Eruption''' (see below) or '''Shadowspread''' to be double-cast.

*'''Dark Eruption''' - targets 5 random players with purple AoE markers which will eventually explode, forcing them to spread apart to avoid overlap. Simultaneously, AoE (circle) telegraphs will also be dropped under the marked players feet, forcing them to move out of the way. Bear in mind that '''Dark Eruption''' can be '''Doubled''' - causing marked players to spawn a second circle beneath their feet after the first one they dropped has exploded.

*'''Shadowspread''' - causes Hades to emit AoE cones in multiple direction, indicated by telegraphs of the floor. Simply dodge the highlighted areas to avoid taking damage. However, if '''Shadowspread''' is '''Doubled''', Hades will follow-up the initial attack by emiting cones in the previously undetonated areas, forcing all players to side-step.

*'''Broken Faith''' - causes a random pattern of aetheric (glowing blue) circles to slowly transcend from the sky into the arena. Once a circle touches the ground, it will detonate, searing anyone caught in their wake for moderate damage and also apply a stackable debuff. Keep in mind that the explosions are wider than the circles themselves. For reference, players can check the circular patterns on the arena floor to see how big the detonation will actually be. To avoid, simply avoid the first few circles until they detonate, then move into a previously detonated area away from other upcoming circle explosions.

From here on, Hades will begin to cycle the previously utilized abilities (possibly with overlapped combinations) until his health has been reduced to 10%. Once sufficiently damaged, Hades will become untargetable while an add-phase begins.

===Add Phase===
Whilst invulnerable, five waves of Ancients (adds) will be summoned into the arena. Simultaneously, a '''Fervor of the Ancients''' (Duty Gauge) will slowly begin to fill-up, indicating Hades's growing power. If the adds are not defeated before '''Fervor of the Ancients''' reaches 100 (max), the raid will be wiped.

Throughout the add phase, players will also contend with multiple AoE markers at the same time as a stack-mechanic. As such, AoE marked players should spread out to avoid the raid, whereas unmarked players should stack with the stack-marked victim to help soak the damage. Assuming the raid successfully defeat all Ancients before the Duty Gauge reaches maximum, Hades will unleash '''Ancient Dark IV''' - an unavoidable raid-wide AoE. So long as the Duty Gauge is below <100, the raid can survive via mitigation and healing.

Hades will lament his flesh-bound form and morph into something far more threatening. By successfully reaching this point, a checkpoint is created, ensuring that any future wipes will reset the fight back to the second phase rather than the very beginning.

===Phase 2===
With Hades now in full form, the fight resumes with the arena shrouded in darkness and lacking the outer railing, meaning players can accidentally walk over the edge to their doom if not careful. Throughout the rest of the encounter, Hades will no longer be moveable, remaining rooted to the north of the arena with a much larger non-directional hit-box. Whilst in this form, the target with highest enmity (typically the tank) will be constantly peppered by ranged auto-attacks in-between all other mechanics, so beware.

*'''Titanomachy''' - a frequently used raid-wide blast of darkness, keeping healers on their toes.

*'''Shadowstream''' - casts an untelegraphed attack that will blast through the centre of the arena in a column shape, indicated by a large ball of dark energy swirling in front of Hades' face whilst casting. If you notice the animation, simply move to the east or west side of the platform to avoid the upcoming blast.

*'''Dual Strike #1''' - creates AoE circle markers on two players, forcing them to move away from the raid to avoid unnecessary overlap.

*'''Echoes of the Lost''' - causes Hades to noticeably lift one of his two arms and stretch it across the arena with an audible voice cue, such as "Meddlesome pests". After a brief delay, he will use that arm to swipe across the arena, damaging and debuffing anyone who does not stand directly behind the out-stretched arm. Players will have a small amount of time to identify the raised arm and run behind it as soon as possible.

*'''Polydegmon's Predation''' - an inverted version of '''Shadowstream''' (see above). Hades will visibly raise both his arms and prepare to smash the east and west sides of the arena, leaving only a column through the centre (a straight line directly in front of him) as a safe spot.

*'''Hellborn Yawp''' - targets both tanks (two highest enmity targets) with earthshaker markers, indicating that a cone-AoE will be aimed from Hades in the direction of each marker. Marked players can bait the attack in various ways, such as both tanks moving to the far sides so that a safe-spot is created in the centre, or stacking in the centre so that the sides of the arena remain safe, etcetera.

*'''Captivity''' - marks two random players with AoE circles. After a brief delay, both players (and anyone overlapped by the circles) will be forcibly sucked into the centre of the arena and entrapped within an '''Aetherial Gaol'''. While entrapped, players will be raised into the air and unable to move or act in any way, surrounded by a (targetable) glowing orb of darkness. All untrapped players will need to quickly destroy the '''Aetherial Goal''' to free their comrades. If this is not done before Hades casts '''Chorus of the Lost''', all trapped players will be executed, regardless of their HP.

*'''Dual Strike #2''' - targets the majority of the raid with a combination of plain AoE circles (yellow) and tethered AoE circles (purple) at the same time. To avoid, simply spread apart from other raid-members so that markers do not overlap other teammates.

*'''Doom''' - causes five bright circles to appear within the arena. Simultaneously, the platform itself will visibly turn black, and all members of the raid will acquire an unavoidable '''Doom''' debuff. To cleanse the debuff, all circles will need to be occupied by at least one player. Once done, the raid will be cleansed of all '''Doom''' debuffs.

*'''Wall of the Lost''' - inflicts a telegraphed knockback from the centre of the arena after a brief delay. The knockback itself is relatively mild, though it still enough to punt players into the void if they remain too close to the arena edge.

At this point, Hades will begin to loop the above mechanics with increased overlap until he has been brought to around 20% health.

===The Finale===
Once Hades has been sufficiently damaged, he will eventually chain all players via '''Life In Captivity''', rendering them unable to move or act. After beseeching aid from his fallen brethren and calling upon the darkness once more, an '''Active Time Maneuver''' will commence. Much like most other active time maneuvers, players must continuously press buttons to fill up a meter before a timer runs out. If successful, the player will break free of their chains in a blaze of overflowing light, much to the chagrin of Hades, who curses Hydaelyn before his last-ditch effort to thwart the raid. However, should any player fail to fill the gauge during the active time maneuver, they will be instantly KO'd instead.

With the platform now shrouded in light, Hades will continuously cast '''The Dark Devours''', dealing tremendous AoE damage and causing the platform to slowly be consumed by darkness with each cast. If Hades has not been defeated before the entire platform has been shrouded in darkness, all participants will begin to suffer from a continuous bleed debuff, and Hades himself will start to long-cast '''Black Cauldron''' - causing a full raid-wipe if the cast goes off.

Dzemael Darkhold

2023-11-26T05:29:45Z

Erincalling: Summarize research on the timer behavior

{{Duty infobox
| name = Dzemael Darkhold
| description = Seeking to utilize an existing labyrinth of natural caves, the Ishgardian house of Dzemael began construction of their eponymous Darkhold near the end of the Sixth Astral Era, intending it to serve as a refuge for those fleeing the flames of the Dravanian Horde. When the house's digging uncovered an entrance to the void, allowing an army of voidsent into this realm, however, they immediately abandoned their plans and withdrew from the subterrane, sealing it off so that they might contain the otherworldly invaders within. Despite all this, the house is unwilling to relinquish its claim to the caves, and believes that if they can be cleared of voidsent, they might still be able to see their original plan brought to fruition.

==Objectives==
#Open the Grand Hall gate: 0/1
#Clear the Feasting Hall: 0/1
#Deactivate the level IV magitek field: 0/1
#Defeat [[Batraal]]: 0/1

==Walkthrough==
*In the first section of the dungeon, to avoid high damage of the untelegraphed '''Eyes on Me''' AoE from the roaming '''[[All-seeing Eye]]''' (ahriman), stand on the purple ground near the glowing crystals to receive the [[File:Crystal veil icon1.png|link=]] '''Crystal Veil''' buff, which will reduce damage taken by 90%.
**This buff also enables one to pull all enemies in the first section of the dungeon to the room before the first boss, without much risk.
*In the second and third sections, the orange corrupted crystals will occasionally pulse telegraphed point-blank AoEs that should be avoided.
*Stand in blue Magitek circles until the countdown is completed to open doors. Some of them will be within range of the orange crystal AoEs, so heal through the damage. Having more people in the timers makes them faster, but with diminishing returns--they take 20 seconds with one person, 10s with two or three, and 7.5 with four.

==Bosses==
{{#ev:youtube|9XGi77azcCU|350|right|Dzemael Darkhold Guide}}
===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r5.png|link=]] [[All-seeing Eye]]===
All-seeing Eye is the first boss of Dzemael Darkhold. This [[Ahriman]] Boss has an ability called Eyes on Me. The ability does heavy damage to all players near it. Players with the buff Crystal Veil are immune to this damage. Players receive this buff when they are near the glowing crystals. The effect of the crystals fade over time. Players need to move to a new cluster of crystals when this occurs.

Throughout the fight, All-seeing Eye will spawn adds. Avoid Adds AoE attacks and kill them asap.

*Fight the All-seeing Eye near the crystal clusters to gain the Crystal Veil buff. When "The power of the crystal begins to dim" appears on screen, move to a new crystal cluster immediately. The All-seeing Eye is invulnerable to attack except when it is near a cluster of crystals.

''Abilities''
:'''Dread Gaze''' is a frontal cone AoE attack that inflicts the debuff {{status effect|paralysis}} [[Paralysis]] to all targets hit.
:'''Cursed Gaze''' is a frontal cone AoE attack that inflicts the debuff {{status effect|amnesia}} [[Amnesia]] to all targets hit.
:'''Eyes on Me''' is an ability that deals heavy damage all players near the All-seeing Eye. Players under the effect of Crystal Veil are immune to this damage.

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r5.png|link=]] [[Taulurd]]===
Taulurd is the 2nd boss of Dzemael Darkhold. He has some powerful AoE cone attacks that should be avoided by all players.

Throughout the fight he will summon adds named Deepvoid Slaves. These monsters are on top of an elevated platform. They will perform ranged attacks at the players. Be sure to spread out and avoid their Firewater attacks.

''Adds''
:'''Deepvoid Slave''' has two types of attacks, Firewater and Boulderdash. Firewater is a circular AoE attack that targets one random player. Firewater can be avoided by moving out of the red circular ground indicator.

''Abilities''
:'''Straight Punch''' is an instant melee attack that deals a small amount of damage.
:'''Double Smash''' is a frontal AoE cone attack that deals a large amount of damage to targets hit.
:'''Elbow Drop''' is a frontal AoE cone attack that deals more damage than Double Smash. Taulurd starts to use this when it is under half [[HP]].

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] [[Batraal]]===
Batraal is the final boss of Dzemael Darkhold. This demon has an instant frontal AoE cone attack that deals heavy damage to all targets hit. Be sure to have only the tank in front of the boss. He has a long ranged AoE column attack named Desolation that does extremely high damage and will instantly kill most players.

Throughout the fight, a purple beam will appear between Batraal and a crystal. Batraal will mark a player with a crosshair and fires Desolation at the target every few seconds. While Batraal is connected to the crystal, he is invulnerable. Be sure to kill the crystal as soon as possible while dodging Desolations. The player who was targeted should avoid aiming the Desolations at the rest of the party.

At around 30% HP and after the 3rd crystal is destroyed, Batraal will use Hellssend and become enraged. He will start using Desolation at will. Batraal will also spawn black pools under 3 players. Players within the pool will take damage over time. Move out of them immediately. The puddles will occasionally explode and deal high damage to anyone standing in them.

*Avoid Desolation at all cost, since it will instantly kill most players

*If you are targeted, don't point Desolation at the rest of the party

*Kill crystals when they appear. The crystal activate in a set pattern at set percentages of the boss's HP. The first to activate is the crystal in the alcove behind and to the left of the boss, relative to where players enter the room. From there, the crystals will activate counter-clockwise (near and to the left of the boss, then behind and to the right of the boss) roughly every 25% of the boss's HP.

''Abilities''
:'''Grim Fate''' is an instant frontal attack that deals heavy damage to a single player.
:'''Grim Cleaver''' is an instant ranged attack that deals moderate amount of damage to a random player.
:'''Grim Halo''' is an instant attack that deals moderate amount of damage to all players around him.
:'''Desolation''' is an frontal AoE column that deals very heavy damage to all players caught within.

===The Count's Ambition===
Seeking to utilize an existing labyrinth of natural caves, Count Tarresson of House Dzemael ordered the construction of the Darkhold near the end of the Sixth Astral Era, intending it to serve as a refuge for those fleeing the flames of the Dravanian Horde. When the house's digging uncovered an entrance to the void, allowing an army of voidsent into this realm, however, they were forced to withdraw from the subterrane and suspend their plans. To add insult to injury, imperial troops exploited the confusion to take up positions within the caves.

In a bid to liberate the Darkhold, a young Artorel de Fortemps assembled his knights at the hamlet of Owl's Nest. Bolstered by the presence of capable adventurers, they succeeded in removing the Garleans, earning the future lord of House Fortemps considerable renown. The voidsent, however, proved considerably more difficult to purge, and after some years at a standstill, the call went out once more for brave souls who might aid in reclaiming the caves once and for all.

===All-seeing Eye===
An immense ahriman whose menacing eye seems to strip barethe essence of things. With but a mere gaze it can call down a curse upon its enemies, while its robust wards stymie the efforts of archers, sending their arrows skittering harmlessly away.

===Batraal===
In the course of the Darkhold's construction, the workers of House Dzemael uncovered solid, to their sheer horror, what turned out to be a full gargoyle. A type of voidsent that manifests in the Source by merging its essence with stone, the creature is believed to have occupied a position of power amongst its kind, as indicated by the pair of massive blades it brandished. In gargoyle society, such as we understand it, size does appear to matter.

Himself a student of architecture, Count Tarresson de Dzemael had hoped to minimize the cost of building a fortress by taking advantage of a natural cave system. The myriad troubles that beset the Darkhold's construction, however, led to his renouncing his title—under pressure from his sons, if the whisperings amongst Ishgardian nobility are to be believed.

__NOTOC__
==Flavor Text==
This curse, commonly used by ahrimans and similar voidsent, takes advantage of the hubris that living creatures tend to fall prey to upon reaching certain milestones in development, targeting mental weaknesses to give foes a paralyzing reminder of their own fallibility.

{{dropped by}}

==Tips==
===Acquisition Tips===
*[[Patch 6.1]] change - There is now a [[Manor Sentry]] enemy just outside the first boss room of [[Haukke Manor]]. More importantly, it will use [[Level 5 Petrify]] regardless of its health status. So you can choose to run this unsync'd and just run to the first boss room and hope to learn it, or form a sync'd party and just make it this far to guarantee learning it.
*[[Manor Sentry]] is spawned when the final boss drops to around 25% HP. Manor Sentry will use Level 5 Petrify at around 20% HP. If you don't learn the spell after killing it, consider wiping the party using sacrificial actions ([[Self-destruct]], [[Final Sting]], [[Transfusion]]) and do the boss fight again -- Brush with Death takes 10 minutes to expire, but it may be faster than running the entire instance again.
*This can be acquired solo synced using [[Mighty Guard]] and [[Basic Instinct]]. Simply clear up to before the first boss making use of [[Ultravibration]] if you have it. Pull the sentry, wait for the sentry to cast its cone AoE, then kill it using your DPS cooldowns immediately after.

===Other Tips===
*Combos with {{action icon|Drill Cannons}} or {{action icon|Ultravibration}}.

Harnessing the power of blue magic, players can learn to mimic the abilities of wild beasts with this new job. Like [[Ninja]], [[Blue Mage]] was added outside an [[expansion]] with [[patch 4.5]].

=== Guild ===
Quest givers hang out in the plaza outside [[Milvaneth Sacrarium]] in [[Ul'dah - Steps of Thal]].

=== Unlock ===
*Complete the [[quest]]: {{questlink|feature|Out of the Blue}}
*Requirement: Level 50 Disciple of War or Magic
*Starting NPC: [[Zealous Yellowjacket]] in [[Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks]] (X:10.0 Y:11.0)
*Prerequisite Quest: Players must first complete the [[Main Scenario Quest]] {{questlink|main|The Ultimate Weapon}}.
*To switch class to Blue Mage, equip the {{item icon|Rainmaker}} weapon.

=== Equipment ===
'''[[Blue Mage's Arm]]'''

'''[[Blue Mage Only Armor Sets]]'''

And other armor and accessories "of Casting." However, unlike other jobs, a blue mage's weapons do not have any main attributes that enhance their base stats, meaning that a blue mage is weaker stat-wise than other jobs in equivalent item level gear. Instead, blue mage damage is based solely on [[intelligence]] points.

===Leveling===
The most practical way for blue mages to gain experience is to kill higher-leveled monsters in the open world, for which blue mages receive an experience bonus.

Because gaining enough experience for the current level cap of 80 in this way is very time-consuming, many players use an alternative method that depends on a particular game mechanic: If the blue mage creates [[enmity]] with respect to a monster (e.g. by attacking it with [[Flying Sardine]]), but something else then kills the monster, the blue mage gains full experience for the kill. This mechanic can be used to obtain experience quickly in the following manner:

* '''From level 1 to level 70:''' The blue mage pairs up with a maximum-level player (the two must ''not'' be in the same party), and together they run amok on the beach south of [[Stilltide]] in [[Kholusia]] (33, 31). The blue mage tags the level 70 monsters there with [[Flying Sardine]], and then the maximum-level player kills the tagged monsters.

* '''From level 70 to level 80:''' This can be done solo. The blue mage protects themselves by using [[Mighty Guard]] and [[Aetheric Mimicry]]: Tank, then moves to the northernmost part of [[The Tempest]] (27, 5). This part of the map is populated by level 79 [[Clionid]]s and [[Deep-sea Leech]]es. The blue mage tags the leeches with [[Flying Sardine]] and moves them towards a clionid, which will kill the leech, gifting the experience to the blue mage. Care should be taken not to feed more than one or two leeches to the same clionid, or it will grow so large that it might one-shot the blue mage.

==Limited Jobs==
Blue Mage is the first limited job in the game. As such, there are several key points that distinguish it from other [[jobs]].

Blue mage functions independently of other [[classes]] and jobs, starting at level 1 with a '''maximum level of 80'''.

When playing as a blue mage, it is possible to participate in [[duties]] with other players in preformed or undersized parties. However, matchmaking using [[Duty Finder]] is disabled. In addition, the following duties will remain inaccessible:
*[[Duty Roulettes]]
*[[Ultimate Raids]]
*[[Adventuring Forays]]
**It is not possible to change to blue mage after entering these instances.
*[[Squadron Missions]]
*[[Deep Dungeon]]s
*[[PvP]], including [[duels]]
**It is possible, however, to enter the [[Wolves' Den Pier]] as a blue mage.
*[[Stone, Sky, Sea]]
*[[Hall of the Novice]]
*[[Duty Support]] and [[Trust]]

Blue mages gain greater [[experience]] from battling [[enemies]] in the open world than other jobs do.
*No bonuses are granted to experience gained from [[FATE]] or [[guildleve]] enemies.

Blue mage cannot be used to progress through the [[main scenario]].

[[Retainers]] cannot be assigned the blue mage job.

{{:List of blue mage traits}}

==Job Mechanics==
[[Blue Mage]] has no [[Job Gauge]] nor any traditional combos. Stacking individual spell effects in creative ways is how Blue Mage deals its most effective damage.

===Active Actions===
[[File:blue mage active actions1.png|400px]]

Before [[#Learning Spells|spells]] can be set to your hotbar, they must first be selected as active actions. You can have up to 24 active actions at any given time.
* Active actions cannot be changed during combat or during certain duties.

===Active Sets===
Active actions can also be saved together as a set. Up to five active sets can be saved.
* The presently selected active set will not affect the layout of your hotbar.

==Learning Spells==
{{see also|Blue Mage Spells Learning Guide}}
Rather than gaining new actions by increasing in level, blue mages learn them from enemies. In order to do so, you must first witness an enemy perform a special attack in battle. Once it is defeated, you have a chance of acquiring the ability. You do not have to be hit by that spell. After defeating the enemy, you have a chance of learning that spell. The chance is determined by the rank of the spell. ★ is the easiest to learn while ★★★★★ is the hardest.
* You don't need to be hit by the spell, only see it to be casted.
* If you're dead when is enemy is defeated, you will not learn the spell. This also applies to deaths due to Final Sting and Self Destruct.
* If one person in a party learns the spell, everyone in the party will also learn it.
* Out of a duty, job level has no influence on when an action can be learned. There is no minimum level to learn a spell unless it is inside a [[duty]]. If a duty is level-synced (even when undersized), there is a 100% chance of learning the spell. If unsynced, the spell learning rate is dependent on the number of stars (estimates put ★★★★★ spell learning rates at 5%), but is not 100%.
* There are two exceptions to the rule that spells learned unsync do not have a 100% drop rate: these are Mind Blast (from the Tam-Tara Deepcroft) and Glower (from Aurum Vale). These two are required by job quests, and will thus always drop.
* You are also not guaranteed to learn a spell from a monster that uses it in a Masked Carnivale fight, even though they are synced duties.

===[[Blue Magic Spellbook]]===
[[File:blue magic spellbook2.png|350px|right]]
All spells you have learned are recorded in the [[Blue Magic Spellbook]]. The book also contains hints on how to acquire other spells.

==Blue Mage Activities==

===[[The Masked Carnivale]]===
A series of solo battles exclusively for blue mages, the Masked Carnivale offers a range of opponents on which to test their skills, earning rewards in the process. Completing certain Masked Carnivale stages is required to progress in the blue mage job quests.

===[[Blue Mage Log]]===

The blue mage log allows you to form parties with other blue mages and participate in specific duties.

'''How to Unlock'''

Requires Blue Mage Level 60

Complete the blue mage quest [[Blue_in_the_Face|Blue in the Face]] and learn the blue magic spell [[Frog_Legs|Frog Legs]].

'''How to Participate'''

From the log, you may view a list of available duties, recruit party members, and commence duties. Please note that the completion of duties will only count towards blue mage log progress if the party meets the size requirements. For this reason, it is recommended that you avoid using the "Undersized Party" option.

'''Available Duties'''

Successfully completing duties listed in the blue mage log will mark them as complete, provided that you fulfill the requirements.

Various rewards will be granted upon completion of these duties. Greater rewards are earned the first time a duty is completed via the blue mage log.

'''Weekly Targets'''

Greater rewards are given for completing duties marked as weekly targets, which are marked with a silver star.
* The additional rewards for a weekly target can only be earned once per week.
* Weekly targets are reset every Tuesday at 12:00 a.m. (PST).

'''Prime Targets'''

In addition to the standard weekly target, marked with a silver star in the list of duties, there is also a prime target, marked with a gold star. While the prime target offers increased rewards, the difficulty is significantly higher. The duties selected as prime targets are not otherwise accessible via the blue mage log.

===[[Extreme Trials]] and [[Savage Raids]]===
Completing extreme trials and the final encounter of a savage raid tier with a full party of blue mages, Silence Echo turned on, and Unrestricted Party turned off, will fulfill [[Battle Achievements (Achievements)|achievements]] that reward exclusive [[titles]] and the {{item icon|Morbol (Mount)}} [[mounts|mount]].

Minor Arcana

==Notes==
* Upon use, this action will change to either {{action icon|Lord of Crowns}} or {{action icon|Lady of Crowns}}. They will only revert back to Minor Arcana upon use or if the player dies or changes classes/locations, which can make tracking the cooldown of this ability a hassle.

Toxikon

==Notes==
* The potency of this action is 240 until {{action icon|Offensive Magic Mastery}} is learned at Lv. 72.
* The potency of the {{action icon|Kardia}} healing effect is 130 when this action is usable, as {{action icon|Enhanced Healing Magic (Sage)}} (which increases potency to 170) is not learned until Lv. 85, by which time this action would have been replaced with {{action icon|Toxikon II}}.

Acronyms, abbreviations, and common terms

2023-08-31T18:52:34Z

Erincalling: Had to look up face pull elsewhere, so now it's here too

''Note: This page does not explain the meanings of specific encounter strategies commonly referenced in [[Party Finder]], with the exception of general acronyms (e.g, TN = true north; BR = boss relative) that are used in many fights.''

'''# Chest''' = A [[File:Party finder icon2.png|20px|link=Party Finder]] [[Party Finder]] description for current savage {{questlink|raid|raid}}s that how indicates how many treasure coffers the party leader would like to appear upon completing the duty. 2 chest = No one has cleared the duty for the week (Note this setting can be enforced with [Duty Complete](Weekly Reward Unclaimed)); 1 chest = 1-4 players have cleared for the week; 0 chest = 5 or more players have cleared for the week. Any chest = no preference for loot (see '''page run'''). Note that with savage rewards changes in [[patch 6.4]], savage raids starting from {{questlink|raid|Anabaseios (Savage)}} only drop 1 treasure coffer containing rewards that would previously have been split into 2 coffers. However, the number of rewards will be decreased if one or more players have cleared for the week. '''Full chest''' may be used in place of 2 chest.

'''2 min''' = Usually refers to strong attacks and party buffs with a recast time of 2 minutes. Aligning usage of these actions will maximize party damage.

Example: to delay the global cooldown (GCD), usually from "weaving" too many abilities or from not pressing the next GCD action in time.

Erincalling: /* Ishgardian Restoration */ typo fix

[[File:Crafting and Gathering Concept1.jpg|right|400px]]
[[File:50 Gatherer Crafter Art PUB.jpg|right|350px]]
[[File:FFXIV TGS MediaKit 08.jpg|right|350px]]
There are eight crafting [[classes]] in [[Final Fantasy XIV]], also known as '''Disciples of the Hand''' or '''DoH''', with each job specializing in crafting, repairing, melding and desynthesizing specific item types, as well as producing vanity items, such as [[glamours]] and furniture for [[houses]] and apartments.

The 8 Disciples of the Hand classes are [[Carpenter]], [[Blacksmith]], [[Armorer]], [[Goldsmith]], [[Leatherworker]], [[Weaver]], [[Alchemist]] and [[Culinarian]].

To become a Disciple of the Hand, players require at least one level 10 Disciple of War or Magic. If eligible, visit the [[guild]] associated with the desired craft to begin your very first job quest. It is recommended to level most or all of the classes together as they feed each other with intermediate materials and can share all gear besides [[tools]].

In addition to crafting, these classes provide additional functions:
*Repair: To repair any item yourself, you'll require a certain level in a corresponding crafting class. This applies to every piece of equipment, craftable or not. You don't have to switch to the class in order to repair the item. Unlike NPC repairs, this can restore condition up to 199%. The higher the level of the equipment, the higher the grade of [[Dark Matter]] is required to do this.
*[[Materia]] Melding: This likewise requires a certain level in the corresponding crafting class. Players can "Request Meld" from other players with a sufficient crafting level, but may also be charged for the service. This can only be performed while the class is active. This feature is unlocked through the quest {{questlink|feature|Waking the Spirit}} with a crafting class at level 19.
*[[Desynthesis]]: Taking unneeded equipment, furnishings, and fish apart to potentially salvage some of the materials and even find rare materials or glams. This has its own skill level system. Culinarians can desynthesize most fish instead of equipment. You don't have to switch to the class to do this. If the Desynthesis skill is too low compared to the ilevel of the item, its not possible to receive anything besides {{item icon|Fine Sand}}, and some equipment can't be desynthesized at all. This feature is unlocked through the quest {{questlink|feature|Gone to Pieces}} with a crafting class at level 30.

'''[https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/crafting_gathering_guide/ Official Crafting Guide on Lodestone]'''

Using the class:
*To switch to a crafting class, simply equip the tool of that class from your armory chest. Additional equipment can be saved in an item set, and equipment with crafting stats can be bought or crafted for every equipment slot except for the Soul Gem. (The Soul Gem equivalent for crafters is acquired through the [[Specialist System]].) Most such equipment can be used across all the crafting classes except for the primary and secondary tools, which are unique to each.
*When you have a crafting class equipped, the CP bar replaces your MP bar.

==Classes==
{{see also|Crafting Log}}
==={{Carpenter}} [[Carpenter]]===
Guild location: [[New Gridania]]. 
''Carpenters excel at the production of wooden materials, furniture and equipment used by many classes in the game, such as clogs, bows, staves and polearms.''

==={{Blacksmith}} [[Blacksmith]]===
Guild location: [[Limsa Lominsa]] - Upper Decks. 
''Blacksmiths specialize in the refining of metals and the production of main-hand and off-hand equipment, such as swords, axes, scythes, musketoons, and more.''

==={{Armorer}} [[Armorer]]===
Guild location: [[Limsa Lominsa]] - Upper Decks. 
''Armorers excel at shaping metals and ores into equipable armor - such as chainmail, ring mail, scale mail and plate body armor, used by multiple classes in the game.''

==={{Goldsmith}} [[Goldsmith]]===
Guild location: [[Ul'dah]] - Steps of Thal. 
''Goldsmiths bend metals and gems into fashionable accessories and bejewelled weaponry. Many classes desire their fineries, such as rings, earrings, necklaces, staves and sceptres.''

==={{Leatherworker}} [[Leatherworker]]===
Guild location: [[Old Gridania]]. 
''Leatherworkers prepare hides, pelts and furs from Eorzea's most notorious monsters into leather-based armor and accessories desired by multiple classes in the game.''

==={{Weaver}} [[Weaver]]===
Guild location: [[Ul'dah]] - Steps of Thal. 
''Weavers convert fabrics and fibres into comfortably light armors and accessories, such as robes, ribbons, shirts and pantaloons that are wearable by multiple classes in the game.''

==={{Alchemist}} [[Alchemist]]===
Guild Location: [[Ul'dah]] - Steps of Thal. 
''Alchemists are masters of powders and potions – grinding and blending materials to produce useful consumables, elixirs, inks, wands, and grimoires.''

==={{Culinarian}} [[Culinarian]]===
Guild location: [[Limsa Lominsa]] - Upper Decks. 
''Culinarians utilize various ingredients to create hearty and emboldening meals. Players can consume food to receive temporary buffs to a variety of attributes, including EXP buffs – perfect for the wandering adventurer.''

Unlike all the other jobs which strongly co-depend (on each other and) on Botany and Mining for their ingredients, the Culinarian strongly co-depends primarily on Fishing.

==Crafting Basics==
Once you have unlocked a crafting job, all recipes related to that job can be viewed using the crafting log. To craft an item, players will require the materials displayed in that item's recipe. Once the necessary components are in your inventory, head to the recipe you wish to fulfil and press '''Synthesize'''.

* '''Durability''' - Durability is the number of steps you can take when while crafting an item. Each crafting action that alters the item's progress or quality consumes 10 points of durability by default, though there are various exceptions. Some abilities can restore durability or temporarily reduce consumption. Your crafting session ends when the durability of the item hits 0. If progress has not reached 100% by then, your synthesis fails – resulting in the loss of some or all crafting materials. The starting durability varies depending on the item.
* '''Progress''' - Progress is the measurement towards the completion of the item. If you fail to reach 100% progress before durability reaches 0, your synthesis fails. No further actions may be taken once the progress bar has been filled, regardless of CP or Durability remaining.
* '''Quality''' - Quality is the probability that the item you're making will be a [[High Quality]] {{HQ}} (HQ) item. You can increase Quality % by performing specific crafting actions and by initiating the synthesis using HQ ingredients. The [[Control]] [[Attributes|attribute]] dictates quality. The higher the % reached the more experience will be gained from the crafting as well. Using HQ crafting materials also affects the starting quality percentage. However, not all items have a High-Quality version. For [[collectables]], the Quality rating will affect the item's Collectability. Some high-end recipes without a high-quality version will require a certain Quality rating for the craft to be successful.
* '''[[CP]]''' - CP, or crafting points, are required to use some of your crafting actions. While crafting, your CP will decrease as you perform your abilities according to the indicated number on the ability icon. If the CP cost of a crafting skill is higher than your remaining CP, you cannot use that ability. CP regenerates to full after you complete a craft. A few abilities can restore CP during the crafting process under the right condition.
* '''Condition''' - Condition is visible just below durability and is visually apparent on the glowing ball of energy that represents the item. The condition of the item mainly affects the increase in quality of the item from touch commands, and also the availability of certain actions. Each action or "step" taken in the crafting process can change this condition, and other than ''Normal'' these always last for only one step. There are four conditions for most recipes:
** '''Excellent''' - Excellent condition has a 10% chance to proc after a "Normal" action, providing a significant bonus to the efficiency of touch commands.
** '''Good''' - Good condition has a 25% chance to proc after a "Normal" action, providing a minor bonus to the efficiency of touch commands.
** '''Normal''' - The efficiency of touch commands remains as stated. Every synthesis starts on this.
** '''Poor''' - Poor condition can only occur after an action is taken during Excellent condition, reducing the efficiency of touch commands.
** Expert recipes have additional conditions. For additional information, see [[Expert Recipes|here]].

===Quick Synthesis===
Once you have crafted an item once, you can use ''Quick Synthesis'' to automatically create more in relatively quick succession without using individual crafting skills. Spiritbond is acquired normally during this process, though your gear will degrade at double the standard rate.

It is possible for Quick Synthesis to fail, losing materials in the process, but only if the player's Craftsmanship stat is lower than the Craftsmanship Recommended listed in the recipe. There is also a minimal chance of producing a high-quality item using Quick Synthesis. This chance is unaffected by the qualities of the materials. Some recipes cannot be quick synthesized.

Quick Synthesis is unlocked for all classes once any crafting job has reached level 10.

==Leveling crafters==
Crafters gain experience by crafting items, completing crafter quests and turning in quest items. There is a great number of different methods to quickly level crafters. Progress is even faster if experience buffs are applied, such as those from a new world, XP-enhancing equipment, free company buffs or crafter manuals. Depending on one's crafter levels, fast methods include the following:

===Levels 1 to about 25===
* Class quests
* Mass quick synthesis of items for which the materials can be purchased cheaply from the guild supplier

===Levels 25 to 50 ===
* Class quests
* Daily Grand Company supply missions
* Ishgardian Restoration (see below)
* [[Guildleves]]

===Levels 50 to 60===
As above, and:
* [[Collectables]] unlocked at level 50
* [[Moogle Daily Quests]]

===Levels 60 to 70===
* [[Custom Deliveries]] unlocked at level 60
* [[Namazu Daily Quests]]

===Levels 70 to 80===
* [[Crystarium Deliveries]]
* [[Dwarf Daily Quests]]

===Levels 80 to 90===
* [[Studium Deliveries]]
* [[Loporrit Daily Quests]]

=== Ishgardian Restoration ===
You should be able to get to 20 quickly. If your main job has progressed far enough that you can enter [[the Diadem]], and you level your gatherers in tandem with (or ahead of) your crafter(s), levelling the crafters gets easy as well.

Starting with level 20, you can craft almost exclusively with the items you gathered in the Diadem, you need at most one external piece, and that is often easy to gather in numbers or even store-bought for a few gil. Combined with experience-increasing scrolls, this brings you up very quickly.

From time to time do batches of class quests, as some of the abilities you get from them are really helpful. At ~45, you can upgrade to Company issued gear. At 60, you should get a full set from Sundry Splendors. (You could get a set at lvl 55, but the short time you'd use that is not worth the effort.) You can continue this up to ~70, then the amount of ingredients rises steeply and you want to start crafting collectables anyways to buy gear from the Sundry Splendors.

After about lvl 70, doing the Company's daily supply missions, ideally when they are starred, is the most time efficient way to level your crafter, mixed with doing collectables when you are about to reach the next level for Sundry Splendor's gear (i.e. 70/80/90).

As soon as you start crafting "regularly", you'll notice the massive synergy between the different crafter jobs. If you have enough friendly crafters to supply you (in exchange for you supplying them), or if you have a lot of gil to spend on the Market board, you can stick to one crafter job. Otherwise, it's worth considering the road called "Omnicrafter" (levelling all crafters, ideally keeping them in the same level range to make use of the gear synergy).

==Crafting Attributes==
* '''[[Craftsmanship]]''' - increases the amount of progress you generate while using crafting actions such as [[Basic Synthesis]] and [[Careful Synthesis]].
* '''[[Control]]''' - increases the amount of quality you generate while using crafting actions such as [[Basic Touch]], [[Standard Touch]] and [[Advanced Touch]].
* '''([[CP]]) Crafting Points''' - crafting points are required to use most of your crafting actions.

The goal of the crafting process is to get the highest possible quality and complete the progression of the item before durability reaches zero. High-quality items have higher stats where applicable and affect base quality if used in further crafting. HQ items also double your rewards when turned in for levequests and deliveries.

Class quests and most story quests do not take the quality of an item into account. However, some quests (such as crafting class quests, deliveries and dailies) will explicitly demand HQ items.

Some items do not have high-quality versions. However, the quality bar will still appear, but it does not affect the amount of experience gained. Crafters automatically learn new recipes as they level up and can be attempted as soon as possible, provided you have enough Craftsmanship or Control.

Retainer Ventures allow the players to assign tasks to their [[retainer]]s. The retainers can be sent on collection missions to bring back [[items]]. The retainer will complete their task after a certain amount of time. Retainers are assigned [[#Class|classes]] and are able to equip [[#Gear|gear]] and level up. Retainer Ventures were introduced in [[Patch 2.2]].
__TOC__
==Unlock==
To unlock Retainer Ventures, you must complete the quest {{questlink|main|The Scions of the Seventh Dawn (Quest)}} and have hired at least 1 [[Retainer]]. Players then must complete one of the three different level 17 quests in whichever city they started in.

In [[Limsa Lominsa]], players can complete the quest {{questlink|feature|An Ill-conceived Venture (Limsa Lominsa)}} by talking to [[Troubled Adventurer]] in [[Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks]] (X:9.0 Y:11.2).

In [[Gridania]], players can complete the quest {{questlink|feature|An Ill-conceived Venture (Gridania)}} by talking to [[Troubled Adventurer]] in [[New Gridania]] (X:11.8 Y:12.2).

In [[Ul'dah]], players can complete the quest {{questlink|feature|An Ill-conceived Venture (Ul'dah)}} by talking to [[Troubled Adventurer]] in [[Ul'dah - Steps of Nald]] (X:9.3 Y:8.7).

*After unlocking retainer ventures, the market board status in the retainer interface will also display venture status.

==Preparing Your Retainer==
===Class===
Before your retainers can undertake ventures, you must first assign them a [[classes|class]] and equip them with a weapon. Retainers can be set to any of the [[Disciples of War]], [[Disciples of Magic]] and [[Gathering]] classes, provided the player has unlocked them. Assigned class determines what items they can collect. In addition, they can only gather items that the player has successfully gathered with that class.

*A retainer's class can be changed at any time. However, you will reset level in doing so.
*A retainer's max class level is limited to the player's level in the same class.

===Gear===
Retainers can be equipped with gear that fits their class and level. The types of gear they are given affect the items they can procure during their ventures. Items will be procured in increased quantities by increasing either average item level for Disciples of War and Magic, or gathering rating for Disciples of the Land. Moreover, for retainers set as [[Disciples of the Land]], increasing [[perception]] will result in a higher likelihood of obtaining high-quality items. Certain types of ventures require a certain item level/ gathering rating at higher levels.

*Retainer gear cannot be changed when a venture is in progress.

Gear equipped by a retainer will be bound upon completion of a retainer venture. However, bound items can still be exchanged and used by both players and their retainers.
*Gear durability will not be affected by retainer ventures.
*Spiritbond rating will not be affected by retainer ventures.

==Assigning a Venture==
Players can assign a venture to their retainers by selecting Assign Venture from the retainer interface. Every venture assignment costs the player a special currency also named [[Ventures]]. These can be earned from some [[Beast Tribe]] dailies, battle [[leves]], or purchased from the [[Grand Company Quartermasters]] for {{company seal|200}} [[Company Seal]]s each.
*You can still use the Market Board and Summoning Bell while your Retainer is out venturing. However, their equipment and class cannot be changed during a Venture.
*The status of ventures can be confirmed under Timers in the Duty menu. Selecting Ventures from the Timers interface will display a separate window containing the status of individual retainers.

==Types of Retainer Ventures==
===Targeted===
These ventures take between 40 minutes to 1 hour (Earth time), depending on retainer level versus the venture's minimum level. They always cost {{venture|1}} [[Venture]] and bring back a specific [[crafting material]] chosen from a list based on the retainer's [[class]] or [[job]].

====[[Hunting (Retainer Ventures)|Hunting]]====
Hunting allows Disciples of War and Magic classes to collect specific items dropped by [[enemies]]. All of the Disciples of War and Magic classes will procure the same items.
*Hunting generates [[Crafting Material]] and other items commonly dropped by monsters. Players can decide which item your retainer brings back. It can be used as a steady supply of EXP for your retainer or items for crafting.

====[[Mining (Retainer Ventures)|Mining]]====
Mining allows [[Miner]] class to collect specific items gathered by miners. Note that a retainer can only retrieve items that you have recorded in your gathering log, i.e. items that you have collected yourself at least once.
*Mining generates Crafting Material and other items commonly procured by [[miner]]s. Players can decide which item your retainer brings back. It can be used as a steady supply of EXP for your retainer or items for crafting.

====[[Botany (Retainer Ventures)|Botany]]====
Botany allows [[Botanist]] class to collect specific items gathered by botanists. Note that a retainer can only retrieve items that have recorded in your gathering log, i.e. items that you have collected yourself at least once.
*Botany generates Crafting Material and other items commonly procured by [[botanist]]s. Players can decide which item your retainer brings back. It can be used as a steady supply of EXP for your retainer or items for crafting.

====[[Fishing (Retainer Ventures)|Fishing]]====
Fishing allows [[Fisher]] class to collect specific items gather by fishers. Note that a retainer can only retrieve items that have recorded in your fishing log, i.e. items that you have collected yourself at least once.
*Fishing generates Crafting Material and other items commonly procured by [[fisher]]s. Players can decide which item your retainer brings back. It can be used as a steady supply of EXP for your retainer or items for crafting.

==Exploration==
These ventures cost {{venture|2}} [[Venture]]s and always take a full 18 hours (Earth time). The item returned is random from a fixed list based on the venture level chosen. From an {{exp}} [[Experience]] standpoint, Exploration ventures are only more efficient than [[#Quick Ventures|Quick Ventures]] if you must spend 5 or more hours away from the game. Good for sleep, work, or other extended breaks. See [[Retainer Progression]] for details.

===[[Field Exploration]]===
Field Exploration allows Disciples of War and Magic classes to explore randomly, yielding random items including {{item icon|Allagan Silver Piece|x}} [[Allagan Pieces]]. While Field Exploration takes longer than [[#Hunting|Hunting]], it yields far more experience points for your Retainer. Higher-level retainers may procure items, [[minions]], and [[Crafting Material]]s unique to exploration ventures.

===[[Highland Exploration]]===
Highland Exploration allows Miner class to explore randomly, yielding random items including {{item icon|Allagan Silver Piece|x}} [[Allagan Pieces]]. While Highland Exploration takes longer than [[#Mining|Mining]], it yields far more experience points for your Retainer. Higher-level retainers may procure items, minions, and crafting materials unique to exploration ventures.

===[[Woodland Exploration]]===
Woodland Exploration allows Botanist class to explore randomly, yielding random items including {{item icon|Allagan Silver Piece|x}} [[Allagan Pieces]]. While Woodland Exploration takes longer than [[#Botany|Botany]], it yields far more experience points for your retainer. Higher-level retainers may procure items, minions, and crafting materials unique to exploration ventures.

===[[Waterside Exploration]]===
Waterside Exploration allows Fisher class to explore randomly, yielding random items including {{item icon|Allagan Silver Piece|x}} [[Allagan Pieces]]. While Waterside Exploration takes longer than [[#Fishing|Fishing]], it yields far more experience points for your retainer. Higher-level retainers may procure items, minions, and crafting materials unique to exploration ventures.

==[[Quick Exploration]]==
When your Retainer is level 10, they can go on Quick Exploration. These always take 1 hour (Earth time) and cost {{venture|2}} [[Venture]]s. The retainer will come back with a single item. The experience your retainer gains no longer depends on the item they collect (as of [[patch 5.4]]). Note that players will get random items from [[fish]] to [[furniture]] to [[Endgame Gear Guide|endgame gear]]. The item your retainer brings back can be anything, as '''the loot table is independent of your retainer's level and equipment''' (though the higher level your retainer's gear is, the better the chance they have of acquiring a [[High Quality]] {{HQ}} item or receiving a larger stack of the item). For example, a level 10 retainer can bring back [[Endgame Gear Guide|endgame gear]].

===Quick Exploration Rewards===
Aside from 1.0 items and [[dungeon]] and [[trial]] [[gear]], players may obtain a {{item icon|Venture Coffer}} containing either exclusive [[dye]]s or a {{item icon|Retainer Fantasia}}.

==Venture Completion==
All ventures are completed within a fixed period of time (the normal gathering ventures can be shorter than usual if a high level retainer is sent to gather low level materials). When completed, your retainer's venture report will be updated in the retainer interface, allowing you to collect the spoils of their venture.
The remaining time for ventures can also be viewed in the Timers tab.

Retainers will receive experience points upon completion of ventures, increasing their level to a maximum of 90. The number of available ventures will increase as your retainer advances in level, a new tier of each type being unlocked every 5 levels.

==Achievements==
Retainer Ventures are associated with the following [[achievements]]:

{{achievement table row|Can't Someone Else Do It II}}
