FFXIV Retainer Ventures Rewards and Loots

Ventures are the currency used in Retainer Ventures. Every time you send your retainer out for a venture, you expend either 1 or 2 Ventures. Players can acquire Ventures from their respective Grand Company vendor after reaching a rank of Private Third Class for 200 seals each. Players can also acquire them from Beast Tribe Quests and Guildleves.

Venture is rewarded from more than 25 quests. Venture is rewarded from more than 20 levequests.

Retainer Ventures allow the players to assign task to their retainers. These tasks consist of collection of items. The retainer will complete their task after a certain amount of time. Retainers are assigned classes and are able to equip gear and level up. Retainer Ventures was introduced in patch 2.2.

  • Every venture assignment costs the player a special currency named ventures. These can be earned from Beast Tribe dailies, battle leves or bought from the Grand Company quartermasters.
  • You can still use the Message Board and Summoning Bell while your Retainer is out venturing. However, their equipment and class cannot be changed during a Venture.

Venture Completion

All ventures are completed within a fixed period of time (the normal gathering ventures can be shorter than usual if a high level retainer is sent to gather low level materials). When completed, your retainer’s venture report will be updated in the retainer interface, allowing you to collect the spoils of their venture. The remaining time for ventures can also be viewed in the Timers tab.

Retainers will receive experience points upon completion of ventures, increasing their level to a maximum of 70. The number of available ventures will increase as your retainer advances in level, a new tier of each type being unlocked every 5 levels.

Preparing Your Retainer

Class

Before your retainers can undertake ventures, you must first assign them a class and equip them with a weapon. Retainers can be set to any of the Disciples of War, Disciples of Magic and Gatheringclasses, provided the player has unlocked them. Assigned class determines what items they can collect. In addition, they can only gather items that the player has successfully gathered with that class.

  • A retainer’s class can be changed at any time. However, you will reset level in doing so.
  • A retainers max class level is limited to the players level in the same class.

Gear

Retainers can be equipped with gear that fits their class and level. The types of gear they are given affect the items they can procure during their ventures. Items will be procured in increased quantities by increasing either average item level for Disciples of War and Magic, or gathering rating for Disciples of the Land. Moreover, for retainers set as Disciples of the Land, increasing perception will result in a higher likelihood of obtaining high-quality items. Certain types of ventures require a certain item level/ gathering rating at higher levels.

  • Retainer gear cannot be changed when a venture is in progress.

Gear equipped by a retainer will be bound upon completion of a retainer venture. However, bound items can still be exchanged and used by both players and their retainers.

  • Gear durability will not be affected by retainer ventures.
  • Spiritbond rating will not be affected by retainer ventures.

  • Hunting generates Crafting Material and other items commonly dropped by monsters. Players can decide which item your retainer brings back. It can be used as a steady supply of EXP for your retainer or items for crafting. Takes an hour normally, but is faster if the retainer is sent to gather materials of much lower level.

Field Exploration

Field Exploration allows Disciples of War and Magic classes to explore randomly, yielding random items including Allagan Bronze and Silver Pieces. While Field Exploration takes longer than Hunting, it yields far more experience points for your Retainer. Higher-level retainers may procure items, minions, and Crafting Materials unique to exploration ventures.

  • Field Exploration lasts a long time (18 hours) but yields the most EXP for your retainer. Give this task to your retainer before you go to sleep, work, or any other prolonged period of time away from your gaming devices.

Quick Exploration

When your Retainer is level 10, they can go on Quick Exploration. The retainer will come back with a single item. The experience your retainer gains depends on the item they collect. Note that players will get random items from fish to furniture to endgame gear. While not making much sense, some items might be very rare or valuable.

  • Quick Exploration is a short (one hour), expensive (Venture-wise), and random task that your retainer can perform. The item your retainer brings back can be anything, as the activity is independent of your retainer’s class, level and equipment (thought the higher level your retainer’s gear is, the better chance they have of acquiring rare items). For example, a level 10 retainer can bring back endgame gear. The experience your retainer gains correlates to the rarity of the item they bring back.

Quick Exploration Rewards

Aside from 1.0 items and dungeon and trial gear, players can obtain 8 untradeable dyes: Pure White Dye, Jet Black Dye, Metallic Silver Dye, Metallic Gold Dye, Pastel Pink Dye, Pastel Green Dye, Pastel Blue Dye, Pastel Purple Dye. Additionally players can obtain the Retainer Fantasia.

Ventures can be acquired by purchasing them from Grand Company vendors with Company Seals, completing Levequests and completing Beast Tribe Quests.

  • The status of ventures can be confirmed under Timers in the Duty menu. Selecting Ventures from the Timers interface will display a separate window containing the status of individual retainers.
