    Survival Guides - Locations

    I was solo'ing VNM's today in Xarcabard/Beaucedine Glacier today, and I saw something I haven't seen since I came back.

    Something called a Survival Guide right next to the Field Manual. After I actually clicked one in both Xarcabard and Beaucedine Glacier I noticed they let me teleport between them for gil.

    My first assumption was that there must be either one Survival Guide per Field manual, or at least one per zone.

    I warped to La Theine Plateau and started my search, both Field Manuals at D-4 and K-8 came up naught. I even brought out RNG widescan to see if they were close-by but not right next to the manual. Nothing.

    Than I went to Behemoth's Dominion and checked the Field Manual there. Nothing. I even ran all the way the Behemoth's spawn point with widescan just to satisfy my curiosity about and make sure there wasn't a Survival Guide in an odd place this time.

    I thought about maybe if it was Grounds of Valor instead of Fields of Valor, but since the only two Survival Guides I have found were both next to Field Manuals, that would obviously rule that out, so either it's Fields of Valor only or just specific zones. I searched survival guide and Fields of Valor on BGwiki and no info about these teleports at all.

    Now after that long-winded explanation my question would be, does anyone here know where the other Survival Guides are? Is there a pattern to what zones they were placed in?

    Locations I know about are:

    Xarcabard: (H-9)
    Beaucedine Glacier: (H-9)

    EDIT:

    Never mind I found the answer on ffxiclopedia:

    Original Outposts with Survival Guides:

    West Sarutabaruta - H-6
    West Ronfaure
    North Gustaberg - D-10
    Valkurm Dunes - H-8
    Buburimu Peninsula
    Jugner Forest
    Pashhow Marshlands
    Meriphataud Mountains
    Beaucedine Glacier - H-9
    Xarcabard - H-9
    Qufim Island - In front of Lower Delkfutt's Tower

    Outland Outposts with Survival Guides:

    Sanctuary of Zi'Tah
    Eastern Altepa Desert
    Cape Teriggan
    Yuhtunga Jungle
    Yhoator Jungle

    Conquest Flags with Survival Guides:

    Ru'Aun Gardens (H-11)
    Lufaise Meadows (E-8)
    Oldton Movalpolos (F-10)

    EDIT2: Hmm, some of those locations seem incomplete, no positions listed.

    I believe they are at each outpost or where you are warped to for outpost warping

    This. SE mentioned they were looking into making the transition between survival guides and HP warping smoother in that survey they released as well.

    Survival Guides have been added to the following areas.
    Bostaunieux Oubliette (I-6) / Toraimarai Canal (F-5) / Eldieme Necropolis (J-9) / Crawler’s Nest (M-8) / Garlaige Citadel (G-7) / Northern San d’Oria (E-8) / Bastok Mines (I-9) / Port Windurst (B-5) / Ru’Lude Gardens (I-10)
    Some how I missed this in the update notes, looks like survival guides are getting expanded past outpost areas.

    Those are all at the entrances of the zones btw.
    We even got many more new HPs, which kinda hints to me SE is going to released a rehashed highlevel version of ENM fights imho

    Yeah, Uleguerande Range took a few minutes to get them all, they are at the underground zones to Bearclaw Pinnacle. All 5 entrances. It makes me wonder if SE is planning to use all 5 for High-tier missions.

    As I said before, I feel SE is planning to rehash ENM content to use in future stuff.
