Sightseeing Log, introduced in patch 2.28, allows the player to solve various riddles in turn to experience the spectacular sceneries in Eorzea. Players can unlock these Vistas at specific locations, at certain times, in certain weathers and by performing specific emotes.

Sightseeing Log can be quite time consuming. The player has not only find and reach the specific location but also the time of the day and weather effects must match the description of the riddle.

In Heavensward (3.0), brand new sightseeing logs were introduced. They are easier to identify and have no weather or time requirements.

Tips

  • Some locations are difficult to reach. They might require the players to solve jumping puzzles or use sprint.
  • Weather has a chance to change at 12:05AM, 8:05AM and 4:05PM Eorzea Time (In-game time).
  • 1 Minute real life time = 20 minutes Eorzea time.
  • Players will know they are standing at the right spot when the message "You have arrived at a Vista" appears in chat.
  • If players have moved away from the vista, a message "You have strayed too far from the Vista" appears.
  • Some Vistas require the players to face specific directions. Try changing the directions of your character if you are unable to unlock certain Vistas.

Unlock

Players can unlock the Sightseeing Log by completing the level 20 quest A Sight to Behold. Players can start the quest by talking to the NPC Naoh Gamduhla in New Gridania (x11,y13). Players must have previously completed the main story quest: Sylph-management.

Heavensward:

Players can unlock Heavensward sightseeing logs by speaking to Kester Ironheart in The Dravanian Forelands (x32,y23). Players must be a combat class level 50 or higher to tackle these sightseeing logs.
