Final Fantasy 16: How To Get Renown

Final Fantasy 16 features a Renown mechanic where you can acquire various rewards by obtaining Renown Points. There are several ways to get this valuable currency in the game, but this guide can tell you the best method to obtain Renown Points quickly.

Final Fantasy 16 Renown Guide

You can get more Renown through two methods: side quests and hunts. The first one can be done after completing the Prologue and reaching Cid’s Hideaway. You will know if a character has a side mission for you by looking for a green (!) sign on top of their head.

Once you speak to the character, the game will offer you a choice to accept or reject the quest. At this point, you can also see how much Gil and Renown you can get from the mission. 

Completing a side quest will definitely grant you some Renown Points, but some missions may not grant you any Gil. For example, completing the Carved in Stone side quest will give you 20 Renown Points and 1,000 Gil. On the other hand, the Silver Lining side mission will give you 30 Renown Points and no money.

Another great way to get more Renown is by defeating optional bosses from the Notorious Mark board. You access this feature after completing The Gathering Storm main quest and speaking to a Moogle named Nektar. Besides giving you hints about the monster’s location, the Hunt Board will also tell you how much Renown and EXP you can obtain by defeating the Notorious Marks.

The higher the monster’s rank, the better the rewards you will receive. However, please remember that it also means the more dangerous the creature you must defeat. The strongest boss you can face is the Ruin Reawakened Notorious Mark, and you must beat a dragon named Svarog that’s Level 50.
