Aether Currents

2017-06-20T16:33:57Z

Rvesely84: /* The Ruby Sea */

Aether Currents are required to unlock the ability to fly on [[mounts]]. Each [[locations|zone]] released in [[Heavensward]] (3.0) has 15 Aether Currents (with the exception of Azys Lla, which only has 5). Players are required to attune to all 15 Aether Currents to unlock flying in that zone. Some Aether Currents are found scatter through the zone (blue->green), others are rewarded by completing [[Main Scenario Quests]] and [[Side Quests]] (red->yellow). Aether Currents in field look like greenish blobs of wind, players can right click on them to attune. Players can check their attunement progress through the Aether Currents window under Travel in the main menu.

==Unlock==
Aether Currents are unlocked after completing the 3.0 [[Main Scenario Quest]] [[Divine Intervention]]. The same quest that awards the player the [[Black Chocobo]] and [[Aether Compass]].

==Aether Compass==
Aether Compass gives you the bearing and distance of the nearest Aether Current upon use. It is used to locate Aether Currents in the field and can be found in your Key Items tab of your bag. If you lose it you can talk to [[Gibrillont]] at the Forgotten Knight to get another.

*Place your compass on your hotbar.

==Lore==
{{Quote|The word "bard" ordinarily puts folk in mind of those itinerant minstrels, fair of voice and nimble of finger, who earn their coin performing in taverns and the halls of great lords. Few know, however, that bards in fact trace their origins back to the bowmen of eld, who sang in the heat of battle to fortify the spirits of their companions. In time, their impassioned songs came to hold sway over the hearts of men, inspiring their comrades to great feats and granting peace unto those who lay upon the precipice of death.|Game Description}}

==General Information==
[[Bard]] is a [[jobs|job]] that specializes in buffing their allies with songs and other enchantments. Using [[bow]] in combat, Bard improves upon the [[archer]] [[classes|class]] through the addition of group buffs.

==Lore==
{{Quote|The word "bard" ordinarily puts folk in mind of those itinerant minstrels, fair of voice and nimble of finger, who earn their coin performing in taverns and the halls of great lords. Few know, however, that bards in fact trace their origins back to the bowmen of eld, who sang in the heat of battle to fortify the spirits of their companions. In time, their impassioned songs came to hold sway over the hearts of men, inspiring their comrades to great feats and granting peace unto those who lay upon the precipice of death.|Game Description}}

Aether Currents

2017-06-19T14:44:59Z

Rvesely84: /* The Ruby Sea */

Aether Currents are required to unlock the ability to fly on [[mounts]]. Each [[locations|zone]] released in [[Heavensward]] (3.0) has 15 Aether Currents (with the exception of Azys Lla, which only has 5). Players are required to attune to all 15 Aether Currents to unlock flying in that zone. Some Aether Currents are found scatter through the zone (blue->green), others are rewarded by completing [[Main Scenario Quests]] and [[Side Quests]] (red->yellow). Aether Currents in field look like greenish blobs of wind, players can right click on them to attune. Players can check their attunement progress through the Aether Currents window under Travel in the main menu.

==Unlock==
Aether Currents are unlocked after completing the 3.0 [[Main Scenario Quest]] [[Divine Intervention]]. The same quest that awards the player the [[Black Chocobo]] and [[Aether Compass]].

==Aether Compass==
Aether Compass gives you the bearing and distance of the nearest Aether Current upon use. It is used to locate Aether Currents in the field and can be found in your Key Items tab of your bag. If you lose it you can talk to [[Gibrillont]] at the Forgotten Knight to get another.

*Place your compass on your hotbar.

These Aether Currents are out of date.
