Mark Bills
Players will find a Hunt Board at each Grand Company headquarters, upon which Mark Bills have been posted listing bounties for various enemies. There are two types of mark bills: Regular Mark Bills, which are posted once per day, and Elite Mark Bills, which are posted once per week. These bills list the name and number of targets to be hunted, their location, and the reward being offered for their defeat.
- The targets listed on regular and elite marked bills will differ from player to player.
Elite Mark Bills task the players to kill a Rank B Elite Mark. By killing the B mark, a player is awarded 5,000 gil and 100 Allied Seals.
Regular and Elite Marks
While Regular Marks denote enemies commonly found in the wilds of Eorzea, Elite Marks denote powerful enemies that only appear under certain conditions. They are ranked according to the risk they pose: B Rank (lowest risk), A Rank, and S Rank (highest risk).
New marks are posted on the Hunt board at the following times:
- Regular Mark Bills: Daily at 11:00 AM (EST) or 8:00 AM (PDT)
- B Rank Elite Mark Bills: Weekly on Tuesday at 4:00 AM (EST) or 1:00 AM (PDT)
- A Rank and S Rank: None (Kill on sight)
Clan Marks
Introduced in Heavensward, Clan Mark Bills are available from the Clan Hunt Board in Foundation (x12,y11). Clan Mark Bills are divided into 3 types: level 1, 2 and 3. These Marks refresh daily and require the players to hunt down enemies across the Heavensward area. Players are awarded with gil, Centurio Seals and EXP.
