    To further strengthen account security when playing FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn, players are encouraged to log in using a security token or software token.

    These security devices generate one-time passwords, which remain effective for only a fixed period of time and become invalid once the user logs in, offering protection against spyware such as key logging programs. Using a one-time password in combination with your Square Enix ID and password will offer greatly strengthened security for your account.

    Furthermore, players who log in with a one-time password will now receive an in-game bonus.

    Read on for details.

    In-Game Bonus for One-Time Password Users

    As of patch 2.2, when logged into the game with a one-time password, you will have the option to designate one aetheryte of your choice as a free destination. Teleporting to your free destination will incur no gil fee. Moreover, you may change your free destination as many times as desired.
    * The free destination is only valid for Square Enix accounts with a registered one-time password.
    * In the event your one-time password has been deactivated, teleporting to your destination will incur a gil fee. Furthermore, your free location cannot be changed while your one-time password is deactivated.


    As a quick and easy way to ensure a safe and secure gaming experience, we highly recommend all users take advantage of the one-time password feature.
    A free second home point and I don't have to do anything that I wasn't already? I like it.

    Fuck vanity, I'll take the free Aetheryte. May have to shuffle my HP if I can get free ports to Mor Dhona.

    This is a genius way to get people to buy tokens or register the free Android/iPhone app (which everyone should).

    I don't understand why people need to be bribed to make their accounts more secure, but I'll definitely take it. I've been using a token for XI since it came out when RMTs were hacking accounts left and right. To this day, you still see people say they got hacked and when asked if they have the token they usually say I disabled it herpderp.

    Very smart move, I will most likely save this item on retainer and if it can be used in the expansion areas I'll choose a place then but as of right now I mostly sit in Mor Dohna, only time I really teleport around is when doing leves which usually pay out more than what I spend on teleports anyway because of reduced rates.

    I was like "yay-ish" until I realized we can't designate our house as our HP so I doubt we'll be able to make our home ward the free tele point.

    Yay free mor dhona teles....I guess.

    (I'm still really annoyed by this)

    Why would you wait to choose? You can freely change your free telepoint.

    It gets set like a favored destination, and can be moved as many times as you like. This is different than the 360 day veteran reward which grants consumable free teleport tickets.

    This is great, I think I might prefer a XI-Mog-Satchel type of thing right now, but either way it's good stuff.

    I have yet to use my token (mostly out of forgetting a free one came with the 1.0 CE, but I will certainly use it now.
