Patch notes say you have to complete the side quest, "Rising to the Challenge."
Have you checked your completed quests?
I have, and still can't be promoted.
Someone recalled to me, that the guy who gives the Squadron quest said if you do this (squadron stuff) then a promotion might be on the table; however, how much of it that needs to be done is a mystery, if it's even correct. Regardless, enjoy the "meaningful content" they wanted to have to introduce new ranks - basically ventures with no current reward and one hat plus a coat.

Oh ok. Sorry, I'm not actually at home on the game, I just saw that prerequisite and thought that may be it.
This is happening to me too. I've run around everywhere, done everything, and I still don't see a quest. Perhaps it's a bug?
I haven't been able to promote either, my seals were and still are at 50K I did the Squadron stuff, the Training mission and training there's no other quests.
Same for me. I'm assuming after you rank up your squad it'll come in time, they just failed miserably and explaining that.
Then again..... If you talk to the dude for a promotion it says you've reached the max ranks available, not "You haven't met the prerequisites yet" like it used too. soo.. maybe SE messed up and forgot to enable it?
They're not going to throw a promotion at you for doing ONE squadron quest (the most you could have done as the first is 60min, the rest 18hrs - AFAIK). You may be offered a promotion in a few weeks, don't panic.
you know what would be nice...if they clarified it on the patch notes like the usually do. It doesnt give any Requirements to it so its a mystery
Everything is explained clearly except this thing xD WHY are they doing this xD
if you look under the website for the 3.4 trailer it shows that the squardons is where you get the promotion but not sure how much of it you have to do
From what I've seen elsewhere, obtained by dubious means, you need have your squadron reach level 40 & be successful in the mission(s) unlocked at that level. I'd expect to see some people reaching level 40 next week but it all depends on how the experience awarded compares with the experience needed to level up.
I believe you need your squadron to be level 40. Either you do successful missions for that level, or a special mission will come up that promotes you to First Lieutenant on completion.
(I heard my FC talking about it. :'3 I'm not sure if this is true or not, but that's what it seems like...)
My highest level on a few of my recruits is 34. So hopefully within the next few days I'll hit level 40. I'll post a confirmation at that point if no one else beats me to it~
It's been confirmed on Reddit that the special rank up mission at level 40 will also grant you the GC promotion.
This rank 40 promotion quest stats requirement is hard. I got the quest unlocked 2 days ago. I was hoping I'll meet the requirements to send my squadron today but I'm still 8 physical stats short as Lv 42. Will have to do more training tomorrow and another 18 hrs to send them.
This definitely has got to be First Lieutenant rank promo. All stats have to meet requirement not like other missions that only need 2/3 to be atleast equal qualifications for deploy. And theirs also no reward like a item for job change or a scroll for 100% recruit chance.
PS: Save all your recruit scrolls and job change item once your squadron is all maxed ranked. That way all your recruits are at highest level and you can boot the ugly ones of your squadron. lol XD
Is the only benefit the new GC glamour pieces?
I would think so. First Lieutenant insignia design is the same. I wouldn't think you can unlock next rank tier since their are no reward previews under them. But I could be wrong.
Get your head start now. Who knows if next patch promo requires full squad of 8 to send them into raid deploys or whatever. You're gonna want your dream team set up with all the cool dudes and charisma trait offs.
It's true. Came when I cleared the mission.

So if they keep up this pace we'll be max rank by patch 16.0 lol
For anyone wondering what the mission was. Sorry for the poor quality.

That mission was a PITA to stat for.
There doesn't seem to be too many first lieutenants around yet though.
BTW, the missions that open up after beating that promotion mission are MUCH harder to stat for. I'm leveling up a bit before I try those out.
I received "The mission is bound to succeed" last night and sent my squadron to do it.
By this afternoon I will have completed it and should get the promotion!
Very excited!
I got there with Adder today. The only reason I met minimum stats is because one of my recruits gained some +30% stat affinity bonus. Their natural stats were under. Now I have the rank 3 page of missions unlocked which are all Lv40 and I don't meet stats for, but I sent them on one with an "equal chance" gamble, might get lucky and get good exp.
What happens if you switch GC? Does your Squadron carry over, with level, and ranks? Or is everything reset?
Allegedly they begin at 'squadron' rank 1 but its the same 8 people, same levels, same bonuses activated. So it would take 2 mission clears to get 1st lieutenant again per extra gc.
I actually switched from Limsa to Uldah the other day having already leveled my squadron to 50 in Limsa and completing the First Lieutenant promotion.
I can confirm they stay the same level when you switch GC and everything carries over, nothing was reset. I even had all of my pending recruits still available to me. I also had all 3 tiers of missions available to me right from the start, the squadron rank was maintained.
Repeating the 40 mission in Uldah got me the First Lieutenant promotion again--which was very easy considering they already met the stat requirements. Now I'm waiting for the 15-day lockout on switching GCs so I can get the Gridania promotion as well :)
How do I get the new Glamour pieces? Finished the rank 2 flagged mission, got promoted. Still couldn't find the new glamour piece anywhere.
