If you’re looking to secure a home in Final Fantasy 14, be prepared for the lottery system
The FFXIV lottery process consists of specific “entry period” days and subsequent “results period” days. It’s crucial to place your bid during the entry phase and finalize your purchase during the results phase. Missing the deadline during the results period will result in losing the plot and sacrificing 50% of your deposit.
To keep track of the housing schedule in-game, navigate to your Timers menu and select the housing tab.
