FFXIV Rank Requirements for FC Submarine

Unlocking and Utilizing the Free Company Submarine in FFXIV: A Comprehensive Guide

Dive into the underwater world of Final Fantasy XIV with your Free Company's very own submarine! This guide details the process of obtaining and utilizing this exciting feature, introduced in the Stormblood expansion.

Obtaining the FC Submarine:

1. Free Company Membership & Rank: Ensure your Free Company (FC) exists and has reached rank 6. This rank unlocks access to necessary vendors for Ceruleum Tanks. Reaching rank 6 is relatively straightforward; encourage FC members to participate in various in-game activities, such as dungeon clearing, leveling, crafting, and gathering.

2. Crafting the Submersible: Navigate to your FC house's Company Workshop and interact with the schematic board to acquire the submersible blueprint. Gather the required materials, and the submersible will be added to your FC crafting log, ready for construction.

3. Acquiring Dive Credits: Purchase Dive Credits 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

   Remember, FC rank 6 is required, and each Dive Credit costs 10,000 Company Credits.

4. Submersible Registration: Once you have Dive Credits, register your newly crafted submersible via the voyage control panel within the Company Workshop.
