System
  • [dev1359] The following changes and additions have been made to market areas:
    • New areas have been added:
      • Lominsan Mercantile House
      • Gridanian Mercantile House
      • Ul’dahn Mercantile House
      Based on this addition, the item search feature has been moved to the abovementioned locations. This change will allow players to directly purchase items from any city’s market area. For example, a player in Gridania will be able to search for and purchase items from the Ul’dah market area by speaking with an NPC in the Ul’dahn Mercantile House.
      * While players can still perform an item search within market areas, they can no longer do so from the query prompt at market entrances.
      * While you are inside a mercantile house, your current location in player search will appear as the associated city-state. The same applies when you log out of the game while inside a mercantile house.


    • It is now possible to search retainer wares by typing item names into the search field.
      • Search results will show all items that start with the entered term.
      • Searches are performed in the language set in FINAL FANTASY FFXIV Config.
      • Searches can be performed through the auto-translate function.
      • Alphabet searches are not case-sensitive.
    • Market Guide NPCs have been added.
      In addition to using the existing market area entrances, players can now travel directly to each mercantile house by speaking with “market guides.”

      These NPCs will be indicated on the map as entrances to their respective market areas.
  • [dev1359] Players now have the option of dispatching their retainers to the market wards.
    Upon summoning your retainer, you will be given the option to dispatch him or her to the ward of your choice. Please note, however, that your retainer will automatically return home in the case that the area specified has already reached capacity.

  • [dev1358] Players are now able to request others to meld materia on their behalf in the same manner as seeking repairs.
    Upon selecting either a piece of gear or materia in the inventory interface, you will be presented with the option to request this service. Making the request incurs a fee commensurate with the required level of the item to which materia will be melded, payable in gil to the player who accepts the request.

    * In addition to the abovementioned fee, players must also provide a suitable catalyst.
    * This method allows only the melding of the first piece of materia to any given item.
    * Only players who possess a materia assimilator can make a melding request.


  • [dev1387] The specifications for discarding materia-enhanced items have been changed.
    Players are now required to first check a confirmation box before they are able to discard materia-enhanced items.
