If you’re a veteran player of Final Fantasy XIV, you probably forgot all about the Aether Currents in the time between expansions. These whirling orbs of wind dot the landscape in new maps, and only by finding all of them can you break your shackles and fly free. It’s a one-time hunt that tends to be forgotten outside of launch weeks, but important to take care of early on — so we’re here to help you find them all.
In Endwalker, Garlemald is the first region where you can actually grab all of the Aether Currents. The first two regions in the expansion (Thavnair and Labyrinthos) require a return journey later on in order to finish them. Below you’ll find a map of Garlemald with the major locations are marked with numbers, while the Aether Currents are marked with green dots.

Garlemald isn’t much to look at from the sky. It’s a wintry, desolate wasteland and that was back when it had seen better days. Those “better days” are clearly behind it now. Regardless, the skies of the Empire are yours for the taking once you grab all these spots.
