<br />
== What is it ==<br />
<br />
Hardcore mode<ref name="launchnotes">https://horizonxi.com/news/patch-notes-12-16-22#hardcore-mode</ref> is a status which you can activate on a new character by speaking to one of the respective NPCs in the starting cities before gaining any levels on any job (see below). <br />
<br />
If you die, your character will lose the hardcore status irrevocably and be just a normal character. To play hardcore again, you will have to create a new character. <br />
<br />
As long as your hardcore status is active, you will obtain rewards upon reaching certain goals (e.g. certain level thresholds). <br />
<br />
== How to Activate the Mode ==<br />
Speak to one of the NPC's in each of the starter cities. May only be activated on a character who hasn't gained any levels on any of their jobs. <br />
<br />
*[[Franklin]] - [[Bastok Markets]] ({{Location Tooltip| area = Bastok Markets | pos = G-9}})<br />
*[[Francine Tuft]] - [[Windurst Woods]] ({{Location Tooltip| area = Windurst Woods | pos = H-11}})<br />
*[[Francois]] - [[Southern San d'Oria]] ({{Location Tooltip| area = Southern San d'Oria | pos = G-10}})<br />
<br />
== Server Messages ==<br />
* When a hardcore player dies, the server receives a message that a hardcore player has fallen and their "survival time" is also displayed.<br />
* A message is sent when a player achieves level 75 as a hardcore player. Needs verifying if this is all players or just the first to reach 75 on that particular job.<br />
<br />
== Rewards ==<br />
<br />
Rewards seem to be purely cosmetic from what was shown in the launch notes<ref name="launchnotes"/> (except the [[Warp Ring]]). It is yet unknown if there are hidden effects. It seems that you keep cosmetic rewards even if you lose hardcore status<ref name="launchnotes"/>. <br />
<br />
* [[Infiltrator]] for reaching level 18<br />
* [[Hardcore Shirt]] for reaching level 30<br />
* [[Hardcore Brayettes]] for reaching level 51<br />
* [[Hardcore Boots]] for reaching level 56<br />
* [[Hardcore Mask]] for reaching level 61<br />
* [[Hardcore Harness]] for reaching level 66<br />
* [[Laurel Crown]] for reaching level 71<br />
* [[Warp Ring]] for reaching level 75. '''Lost if hardcore status is lost.'''<br />
* [[Melon Slicer]] for reaching level 75 x2<br />
* [[Premium Mogti]] for reaching level 75 x3<br />
* ??? for reaching level 75 x5<br />
* [[Tartarus Platemail]] for reaching level 75 x15 (all launch jobs)<br />
