When will the sprout icon go away?

[Renalt]

Honestly you'll wish you could keep it. As a mentor I can't even get into the Novice Network half the time cause only 100 Mentors can be on the NN at any given time...which more than half of that number are Mentors that don't say a word. Kinda not good when the NN is a NETWORK.

Im at 5.5 ShB and I still have the sprout icon, also logged well more than 168h of gameplay currently at 52days +18h.

It doesn’t go off before the completion of the very last post Shadowbringers quest. The conditions are cumulative: play time and MSQ progress.

I've had sprouts in my Emerald Weapon Ex farms. So i'm not sure what some of you are talking about x)

Those characters have less than 168 hours played. You need to meet both requirements for it to automatically go away.

Wear that green with pride soldier!!!

I think they changed the requirements. Last time I checked, I was at 9 days, so 216h and I just started Endwalker today. Still got the sprout before my character name

pretty sure I got sprout all SHB.
Only got it removed in EW

As of Endwalker 6.0, the New Adventurer status wears off at

1. Completion of Shadowbringers patches MSQ (5.5x quests)
2. Accumulation of 12 days 12 hours /ptime

whichever takes longer.
