Don't panic! The Aether Compass is still in Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker. Learn its new location in the Duty menu's Collection tab and how to use it to find Aether Currents.

Hey there! So you're diving into Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker and probably wondering where the heck the Aether Compass went. It's a common question after the big 6.0 update, as it got moved from the usual Key Items tab. Don't worry, it's not gone, just relocated to save some precious inventory space!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, open up your main menu. You know, the one with all the options like Character, Inventory, etc.
  2. 2
    From there, select the Duty menu.
  3. 3
    Inside the Duty menu, look for and click on the Collection tab.
  4. 4
    You'll see the Aether Compass listed there. Just click and drag it onto one of your hotbars.
  5. 5
    Now, when you're out in the field and need to find an Aether Current, just press the button for that hotbar slot. It'll give you a message telling you where the closest one is in the current area. Super handy!
Tips
  • Think of it like any other skill or item you'd use from your hotbar. Press the button, get the info. Easy peasy.
  • This change was made to help with inventory management, so don't freak out if you couldn't find it where you expected. It's a good change in the long run!
