New Main Scenario Quests

To start the first quest of the Dawntrail main story, A New World to Explore, talk to Ojika Tsunjika in Old Sharlayan. If you have trouble seeing quest NPCs as you go through the new story, there is a new feature to hide players near quest NPCs by going to Character Configuration > Control Settings > General and choosing one of the options under "Quest Progression Settings".

New Jobs: Viper and Pictomancer

Two new jobs have been added in Dawntrail: Viper and Pictomancer. To unlock these new jobs:

• Viper can be unlocked by the quest "Enter the Viper" at Ul'dah - Steps of Nald (X: 9.3 Y:9.2) if you are level 80 or higher
• Pictomancer can be unlocked by the quest "The Joy of Pictomancy" at Old Gridania (X:8.0 Y:10.3) if you are level 80 or higher

Female Hrothgar

Female Hrothgar will be available as a new race starting with Dawntrail. Watch the female Hrothgar showcase video. Windows users can download the official benchmark to create a female Hrothgar that can be imported into Dawntrail upon the game's release.

Graphical Update

Dawntrail introduces an updated graphics engine, with higher-resolution textures, more detailed character models, and more.

Two Dye Channels

Gear will now have two dye channels available, allowing for much greater customization of clothing. Watch Yoshi-P demonstrate this new feature (in Japanese with English interpreter).

Job Adjustments

Watch the Dawntrail Job Adjustments segment from the Live Letter (in Japanese with English interpreter).

New Fantasia Feature: Unlimited Appearance Changes for 60 Minutes

When using a Fantasia, which allows you to change your character's appearance, you can re-edit your character as many times as you like within 60 minutes. The 60 minutes are based on playtime and don't count down when you're logged out.

Free Fantasia

A quest will be added at Ul'dah - Steps of Thal (X:13.4 Y:9.2) with the reward of a free Fantasia. The quest is available after completing the quest The Scions of the Seventh Dawn, a quest in A Realm Reborn.

Facewear

Facewear is a new feature that adds a facewear slot, separate from headgear, allowing players to wear glasses at the same time as headgear. "Headgear that looks like glasses" is not the same as Facewear, and cannot be placed in the Facewear slot. For each Facewear, you can choose from 12 colors.

How to Re-Acquire Your Existing Facewear

If you already acquired the Fashion Accessories False Oval Spectacles, False Shaded Spectacles, False Classic Spectacles, or Rose-colored Spectacles prior to Dawntrail, you will need to speak to a Calamity Salvager to reacquire them as Facewear. Choose "Spectacles Exchange" at the bottom of the list to do so. Calamity Salvagers can be found at the following locations:

• Limsa Lominsa Upper Decks (X:11.3 Y:14.3)
• Old Gridania (X:10.0 Y:8.4)
• Ul'dah - Steps of Thal (X:12.6 Y:13.1)

Blacklist Updates

The blacklist feature has been expanded. There will be two separate lists: mute list and blacklist.

Mute List

If you place a character on the mute list, you won't be able to see what they say. During duties, muted characters' messages will be obscured, with the option to temporarily view them.

Blacklist

If you place a player on the blacklist, their chat messages and character model will no longer be visible. This applies to all characters in the blacklisted player's account. During duties, the blacklisted player's name will be displayed as "unknown" and their messages will be obscured, with the option to temporarily view them.

Term Filter

You can specify terms that you don't want to be displayed in chat. Up to ten words can be registered.

Estate Expulsion

Estate owners can bar characters from the estate for up to 10 days by adding them to the Barred Character List. To add a character to the Barred Character List, target them and select "Bar from Property" in the subcommand menu, then choose "Register as Barred Character."

Free Company owners can give Estate Holder Rights to up to four members of their FC. If an estate owner is on their own property, or an FC member who is a rightsholder is on their FC property, any players they have blacklisted will also immediately be expelled from their estate.
