The Sightseeing Log has been a staple inFinal Fantasy XIVsince it was introduced back in patch 2.28, encouraging players to explore areas they wouldn’t usually go to and offering rewards for the effort.
Each expansion has added a collection of new Vistas to locate and interact with, andDawntrailis no different.Dawntrailadds an additional 45 Vistas to find, and although there is no title or physical reward for finding all of them, the views themselves are breathtaking and worth seeking out.
How to unlock Vistas in FFXIV
Originally, some Vistas could only be unlocked by using specific emotes or at different times of the Eorzean day. Thankfully, this process has been simplified over the years and unlocking Vistas inDawntrailis done by simply standing in the glowing orb and using the “/lookout” emote. After doing so, a pop-up will appear containing the name of the Vista and more information about it.
To check which Vistas you still have to check off, you can open up the “Logs” menu and then select “Sightseeing Log.” You can see Vistas from all expansions here, and the ones that you’ve yet to find will be shown as a question mark on top of footprints.
Vistas don’t show up on your maps, mini or otherwise, and the only way you’ll find them is if you stumble across them by accident or are guided there. If you want to unlock all of the Vistas inDawntrail, here’s a full list of where they can be found.
