How to Join a Grand Company

After you complete the level 20 Main Scenario Quest A Hero in the Making, you will need to choose a Grand Company in order to proceed in the Main Scenario.

Deciding Which Grand Company to Join

Consider the following when making your decision:

• You can change your Grand Company, but you will have to wait 15 days to switch again. The first change is free, and thereafter it will cost 50,000 gil. Switching away from a Grand Company does not cause you to be demoted in that Grand Company if you decide to switch back. You will lose access to the seals (currency) specific to that Grand Company, but the seals that you earned will still be there if you switch back.
• Each Grand Company has purchaseable gear (such as uniforms) and items (such as banners and furniture) that are unique to that Grand Company.
• You may find yourself going to your Grand Company headquarters frequently, so you may wish to choose a Grand Company that is in a city-state that you like or a location that you find convenient.

If you don't care which company you join, you can leave it up to chance by using the widget below to generate a random number between 1 and 3.
1 = Twin Adder, 2 = Immortal Flames, 3 = Maelstrom

Whichever way you reach your decision, do one of the following to choose your Grand Company:

• Speak to the Serpent Officer and say Yes, then accept the quest The Company You Keep (Twin Adder) to join the Twin Adder.
• Speak to the Flame Officer and say Yes, then accept the quest The Company You Keep (Immortal Flames) to join the Immortal Flames.
• Speak to the Storm Officer and say Yes, then accept the quest The Company You Keep (Maelstrom) to join the Maelstrom.
