Square Enix’s Final Fantasy 14 continues to capture the hearts of gamers globally, thanks to its robust social experience that enhances its already rich MMORPG gameplay. Since its resurgence over ten years ago, players have remained loyal, drawn in by captivating character customization and a vast array of battle content. One notable feature that has gained popularity recently is the extensive collection of unique emotes, which players use to express themselves in amusing and creative ways.
Among these emotes, the Pose of the Unbound stands out as a fan favorite, often utilized for moments of comedic relief during gameplay. If you’re eager to add this delightful emote to your collection as a Warrior of Light, you’ll need to know how to obtain it.
How to Acquire the Pose of the Unbound Emote in Final Fantasy 14

The Pose of the Unbound emote was introduced in the recent Patch 7.16 update, accompanying a final questline in the Dawntrail series of Role Quests. To unlock this emote, players must first complete the main scenario of the ‘Dawntrail’ Questline, along with five specific Role Questlines:
- Dreams of a New Day – Tank Role Quest (Requires a Tank job at Level 90 or above)
- An Antidote For Anarchy – Healer Role Quest (Requires a Healer job at Level 90 or above)
- A Hunter True – Melee DPS Role Quest (Requires a Melee DPS job at Level 90 or above)
- The Mightiest Shield – Ranged Physical DPS Quest (Requires a Physical Ranged DPS job at Level 90 or above)
- Heroes and Pretenders – Magical Ranged DPS Quest (Requires a Magical Ranged DPS job at Level 90 or above)
You can find all these questlines at Xbalyav Ty’e, located at (X:12.4, Y:14.7) in Tuliyollal, which is the restaurant where you previously interacted with Wuk Lamat during the Dawntrail MSQ. Be sure that you have the appropriate job role equipped to initiate these quests.
Upon completing these quests, the ‘Picking Up the Torch’ Level 100 quest will become available through Rral Majun, who is also at the same venue in Tuliyollal (X:12.3, Y:14.6), near the bar counter. After a dialogue with her and the NPC Br’uk Evu, your Warrior of Light will discover that Apyaahi, the leader of the Passage of the Unbound, is seeking new candidates for her clan.

Your mission will be to investigate Apyaahi’s true motives by posing as a potential member of her organization. The conclusion of this storyline unveils the ‘Imposing Views’ Level 100 quest, upon completion of which you’ll receive the Pose of the Unbound emote as a reward.
Once you’ve unlocked this emote, it will appear under the ‘General’ tab in your emotes menu, allowing your character to showcase a wonderfully exaggerated pose. Many players have playfully compared it to the iconic stances featured in the Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure anime series, possibly paying tribute to the show’s enduring popularity both in Japan and worldwide. If you’re a fan of grandiose characters, this emote offers a perfect way to emulate them.

It’s important to complete the remaining quests in this Role questline, as doing so will grant you the ‘Bright Bustle’ Orchestion Roll and the ‘Sweet Justice’ title as additional rewards for finishing the ‘Bar the Passage’ Level 100 quest, which wraps up Apyaahi’s perilous plot.
