Riding Maps removed! Mount Speed Increase Upgrade 2???

It might just be that the requirement for them to show up is "have completed msq". Before you installed the expansion it counted as complete, cause hw msq was as far as you could get, once expansion was installed, msq was incomplete.
I'd just go progress the main story, you'll have to do that anyway eventually to unlock all the zones for your gatherers and crafters, then check back and see if the maps show up. If they still don't, I'd assume a bug and file a report.

It's semi relevant if he played 4 years and complains that he can't access these items cause he don't meet the requirements. But I guess you won't see my side and be rude about it. Good day.

Perhaps if your first post in the thread was less abrasive, people would feel more inclined to see your ‘side’ of this debate.


I would still like to see a screenshot, however, of the OP’s Allied Seals menu. It would probably help far more than this back and forth of “they were there before, but now they arent” and “did you check the appropriate section”.

It’s MSQ completion for the current expansion that is required, not the entire MSQ as a whole. So, to access the ARR level 2 maps, you have to complete “The Ultimate Weapon”; for HW, “Heavensward”; and for SB, “Stormblood”. I have a friend with an alt in the middle of ARR’s 2.2 storyline, and she has almost all of the level 2 mount speed maps for the ARR areas.

what an utter waste of a 6 page post.... this guy just doesnt get it.

If I want to take 5 years to go through the MSQ, then I will take 5 years to go through the MSQ without thinking twice about your opinions.

This thread isn't about any of that.

I simply want to get to the bottom of this issue for me and anyone else having the problem.

Here are the screenshots that show nothing.



I was wrong about the menu only having one option earlier, that was my mistake. But rest assured, they are all gone.

I am still moving forward through the MSQ.

I am really sorry that I ever came here for help in the first place. I thought I was being thorough and saving everyone some time; however, all I have done is upset people. When this issue is resolved I'll quietly take my leave.

I'll report back when I get through the rest of the game. Thanks again to the supporters.

I upgraded to HW because I wanted to continue upgrading my gathering and crafting classes while I take my time finishing the MSQ.

So I read through the entire thread. And I notice you've not been reading the replies. One of which told you you needed to have finished The Ultimate Weapon to have them unlocked. It took you SIX PAGES for a screenshot. And now, plain and simple, answer the question. Have you finished The Ultimate Weapon?

You're taking your time through the main story quest, you're level 53, my money's on no.

So the screenshot and the rant was just added drama. I really do like these forums.

What about the fact that the maps were there before don't you understand in the title of the thread? So yes, I did read the replies. The fact remains that the maps were present prior to the upgrade to Stormblood. That seems to be the very thing that ALOMOST everyone here has missed.

Completing "The Ultimate Weapon" has brought the riding maps back. So there is something going on where if you upgrade the way I did, you should have access to those maps until you upgrade to Stormblood.

Anyone having the same issue will have to complete the 7th Umbral Era Quests to get the maps back.

I would imagine the person who wasn't able to see them in HW would either have to upgrade to SB or complete the HW MSQ as well. I can't say for sure.

I can't stress the importance of actually reading and understanding. I repeated myself multiple times on this thread just trying to say what I said in the beginning.

Hardly anyone seemed to understand that the maps were available to me early and were removed.

Thank you to those who offered advice and experiences to make this easier. I really appreciate it. Thank you to the forum for allowing me a place to ask questions. I hope this helps somebody out there understand if they see content disappear in their instance of the game.

I mean, I've been keeping up with the story. I don't know why buying Stormblood locks you out of buying the maps early (which I guess they did in your case), but that seemed to be the problem, since it let you bypass the requirements. Now that you've had Stormblood, it's proceeding through MSQ to unlock the maps. You probably would have ran into this problem if you were in Heavensward too.

In my experience it seemed odd but I would have no way to replicate it without spending an extra 45 or so, so showing the icon just in case of terminal derp is the best one can do, without being a jerk. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
