Hatching-Tide 2023: Quick & Easy GUIDE!

If you’ve been on the fence about coming back to FFXIV, and you needed a cute, little event with limited time rewards to pull you back in, Hatching Tide might just be it. This event is back, and will be up from March 27, until April 10, 2023. In this article, you’ll find out everything there is to do during Hatching Tide, as well as how to pick up all of the limited time rewards!

In order to start the event, you’ll need to be at least level 15 Disciple of War or Magic. Then, you need to teleport to Gridania, and right in the middle of Mih Khetto’s Amphitheatre, you’ll find Jihli Aliapoh. She’ll offer you a quest called “Get Along and Play Knife”, which will have you dress up and do some pretty funny things!

The quest is short and sweet, and it’ll lead you into another one called “Chaos, Carnage, Eggs”. For this quest, you’ll need to complete the seasonal FATE “Don’t Be Sylphish”. Once you turn it in, you’ll become a proud owner of the Frighten emote, which indeed is kind of scary and that’s why you need to have it.

Apart from the quest reward, you can find Dreamer in the Amphitheatre and purchase various items in exchange for the Special Midnight Archon Eggs you’ve received from completing the FATE. You can buy yourself a full Tonberry suit, a poster for your home – should you have one, as well as an Orchestrion roll. The entire outfit will require you to collect 10 eggs, each item being 2 a piece, whereas the roll and the poster will cost you additional 5 – the roll being 3, and the poster 2 eggs. You can earn more of these eggs by completing the FATE “Don’t Be Sylphish” again, which has a respawn time of about 10 minutes or so.

That’s pretty much it when it comes to the Hatching Tide event in 2023. It’s short and sweet, and although it can be completed in 20 minutes or so, it offers some cool rewards you might want to pick up before they’re gone. Let me know your thoughts on the event down below! Massive thanks to everyone supporting the content – if you’d like to join them and keep it going, you can do that here on Patreon. Enjoy 6.35, have fun and I’ll see you in my next guide. Bye bye!
