FFXIV Valentione’s Day 2023: Quick & Easy Guide!

Valentione’s Day is up and available in FFXIV, and it will last until February 15th, 2023. In this quick and easy guide, I’m going over everything you need to know for this event, what the rewards are, what you can do during it, and how not to miss out on anything!

In order to start the event, you need to be level 15 Disciple of War or Magic, and need to have completed the quest “It’s Probably Pirates”, which is a level 15 MSQ. If you’ve got it covered, make your way to Mih Ketto’s Amphitheatre and find Lisette de Valentione with a blue quest called “Suited for Affection”.

Finishing this endearing story will award you with a gender-appropriate gear chest with a head, body, legs and feet, that are absolutely stunning, dyeable, and you can fit all of them into the Armoury Chest without worrying about whether or not you’ve overflown your Glam Dresser!

Once you’re done with a quest, you find the House Valentione Servant next to the stage and queue with a party member or with a random person into the cutest instance you’ve ever seen, where you get to work together to perform tasks, kind of like in FFXIV’s own version of It Takes Two. Going with your actual Valentine or someone who you want to hint your affection towards is probably the way to do it, but if you queue with a random party member, you still have the potential to make a friend… or an enemy, depending on how well you work together towards completing the puzzle. 

Right outside Mih Ketto’s Amphitheatre, you’ll find a House Valentione Maid, who is the vendor of the event, and there are plenty of cool things to purchase here, including the copies of the glam items you’ve received in your chest. You can get the other gender’s items too, but it’s unfortunately gender-locked, so you can only realistically wear one set – unless you’re purchasing it for one of your retainers, of course. This year’s loot is Ballroom Etiquette – Valentione’s Dangers, which is an Eat Chocolate Emote. There’s also Valentione’s Heart Desk for your house or apartment interior, as well as the Prismatic Heart prisms to fool around with.

That’s pretty much all I could think of when it comes to this year’s Valentione festivities. If I’ve left something out or you have any questions, let me know in the comments, and stick around for more good stuff!
