Going into Final Fantasy 14 by yourself is a fine enough experience in its own right, but when paired with a buddy, things can be exponentially better. Using the Recruit A Friend Campaign will net you and your recruited friend a handful of unique and powerful rewards that make the program worth giving a shot and tempting enough to make your buddy jump aboard.
How To Recruit A Friend/How To Redeem The Code
Recruiting your friends to Final Fantasy 14 is a great way to get unique rewards and to try and finally rope them into the incredible world of Eorzea. However, recruiting them requires a few steps for both you and your friend, which can be tricky, especially if your friend doesn't have a Square Enix Account.

Rewards (Recruiter)
Rewards are the most significant incentive (outside of wanting to play the game with your friend, of course) to participate in the Recruit A Friend Campaign as it allows you to obtain many unique items in Final Fantasy 14.

Fortunately for the recruiter, if your friend decides the game simply isn't for them, you still get something out of it. But if your friend decides to stick around and purchase a subscription, you will get even more rewards. Below is the complete list of rewards for the recruiter and how to obtain them.

Rewards (Friend)
While the recruiter gets a couple of rewards just for redeeming their code, you won't get anything unless your friend continues their subscription. However, you will also receive these items on top of whatever else new players get, alongside your subscription bonuses. So it isn't as bad of a hand as it seems.
