MSQ, FATE Ranks And Gathering
Aether Current Locations And Quest Requirements
Most zones have four blue quests that award an Aether Current, plus one current from MSQ. The tables count these reward quests, not their prerequisites. Since the base MSQ must be finished before the order, its currents are already collected.

Heavensward
| Location | Aether Currents To Find | Side Quests | MSQ Quests | MSQ Current Reward |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Coerthas Western Highlands | 4 | 4 | 1 | Purple Flame, Purple Flame |
| The Dravanian Forelands | 4 | 4 | 1 | Mourn in Passing |
| The Sea of Clouds | 4 | 4 | 1 | Bolt, Chain, and Island |
| The Churning Mists | 4 | 4 | 1 | Into the Aery |
| The Dravanian Hinterlands | 4 | 4 | 1 | Forbidden Knowledge |
| Azys Lla | 0 | 0 | 5 | Five MSQ Quests, Ending With Fetters of Lament |
Azys Lla is the exception: all five Aether Currents come from MSQ, with none to find on the map and no blue quests to complete. Finishing Heavensward's base story already unlocks flying there, so the Heavensward order finishes the other five zones and checks flying across all six.
Freebird Achievements And Points
Each map has a Freebird achievement worth 5 points. Collecting all six in an expansion also awards Frequent Flyer for another 10 points, making the complete set worth 40 achievement points. Frequent Flyer I–V correspond to Heavensward, Stormblood, Shadowbringers, Endwalker and Dawntrail.
You receive points only for achievements you have not earned yet. For Heavensward orders, Azys Lla's Freebird is already earned through the required MSQ, so finishing the other five maps can add up to 35 new points, including Frequent Flyer I.
Why The Last Aether Current Can Take Longer
The Aether Compass points to the nearest Aether Current on the map, including one across a cliff or in a part of the map you cannot reach yet. The distance can look short while the path takes you a long way around. It does not find quest rewards, so you can collect every current on the map and still need a blue quest before flying unlocks.
For an Aether Currents order, we check Travel > Aether Currents to see which ones are missing. Old guides can send you to locations you no longer need: most Heavensward through Endwalker maps now have four Aether Currents to find, while Dawntrail maps have ten. The Compass is under Duty > Collection, not the old Key Items tab.
Unlock Flying Yourself Or With LepreStore
Manual timings below are rough planning estimates based on player reports, after the required MSQ. They exclude story completion and vary with existing attunements and route knowledge.
- Time: Players report around 20–30 minutes for a straightforward zone. At that pace, six unfinished zones take roughly 2–3 hours of active play; detours and extra quest prerequisites can add time.
- Work: Find the Aether Currents on each map, complete blue quests and check which quest rewards are still missing.
- Benefit: No service fee, and you experience the side stories and exploration yourself.
- Trade-Off: Repeated Compass checks and backtracking take your playing time, especially when you return after finishing the story.
- Your Time: We do the scouting and questing while you’re offline. You place the order and return when it’s ready.
- Included: Aether Currents found and attuned, blue quests completed, and flying unlocked across the expansions you choose.
- Benefit: No looking up coordinates or working out which blue quest you missed.
- Trade-Off: This is a paid Piloted service requiring account access. The expansion MSQ must already be completed.
