Dive into the depths of Eorzea with your Free Company's submarine in Final Fantasy XIV! This guide details unlocking and utilizing your FC submarine for underwater exploration.
Unlocking Your Free Company Submarine
First, ensure your Free Company (FC) is established in FFXIV. Ideally, reach rank 6 to access all necessary vendors for Ceruleum Tanks. Reaching rank 6 is straightforward; encourage FC members to participate in in-game activities like dungeons, leveling, crafting, and gathering.
Next, locate the Company Workshop in your FC house and interact with the schematic board to obtain the submersible recipe. Gather the required materials, and the submersible will be added to your FC crafting log for construction.
To embark on underwater voyages, you'll need Dive Credits. Purchase these from Resident Caretaker NPCs in any housing district (locations listed below). Note: FC rank 6 is required, and each credit costs 10,000 Company Credits.

- Lavender Beds: X:12, Y:8

Finally, register the completed submersible via the voyage control panel in the Company Workshop.
