Character Creation Date

[Cardian]

Is there anyway to a check character's creation date? Was wanting to transfer to a different server, but apparently my character is less than 90 days old. I tried contacting support and only got an automated response that did not even seem to relate to my question: How or where do I check this?

I don't think there is such thing, would monthly subscription date work??

Sadly no. I started a few different characters until I picked the one that I liked. The most accurate way (I think) was to check my characters wall on the lodestone, which seemed to indicate that I have to wait another 9 to 10 days. Thanks for trying to help though.

The only way I know of to check this is by using the FFXIV DB site. Yes it's not official SE, but does show your character creation date near to the bottom of the class/job sub page, well at least it does for me anyway. You might need to link your account but anyway, it's worth a shot perhaps.

You could check your character page on the lodestone for the very first "Mapping the Realm" achievement you got, I think for the first few zones just entering the zone is enough to trigger the achievement so that might give you an estimate.
I.e. if you started in Ul'dah check when your character unlocked "Mapping the Realm: Central Thanalan" as I think that's the first zone the game sends you to.

You can estimate it through your achievement dates on Lodestone. One of the earliest achievement you would unlock would be the level 10 achievement.

Thanks everyone for the tips, especially on checking the achievements on the lodestone.

Thank you for this, and I worked out if you go into Lodestone and just toggle to see your oldest achieved... achievement lol. That would probably be the most accurate way to tell when you created your character. Unless you created it and then didn’t play on it for a week or whatever lol.
I’d attach an image but Idk how.

It may not be exact, but if you had friends that brought you into this game and added you to their friend’s list, you can check how long you’ve been friends with them via a sub-command in the Friend’s List menu. I had a friend that brought me into this game and added me Day 1, so I can always check the age of my main character that way.

For me my date on the lodestone is 1st may 2020, a whole bunch of my achievements are all on that date, anyone know why
