- Want to level Phantom Jobs while farming Knowledge
Knowledge Level 40 and Forked Tower Access
Knowledge Level 40 is required to enter both versions of the Forked Tower: Magic.
Reaching level 40 does not automatically unlock either duty. You must also complete the applicable North Horn quest progression.
Forked Tower: Magic Requirements
The standard Forked Tower: Magic requires:
- A level 100 Disciple of War or Magic
- Access to the Occult Crescent: North Horn
- Knowledge Level 40 or higher
- Completion of the applicable unlock quest
- An eligible combat job
The raid supports up to 48 players and has no restrictions on resurrection.
Forked Tower: Magic Extreme Requirements
The Extreme version also requires Knowledge Level 40 and separate unlock progression.
It is designed for an organized alliance and includes additional restrictions, including limited resurrection opportunities and a timer that must be extended through raid progress.
Simple Carry can combine Knowledge Level progression with the applicable unlock quests and raid-clear services when selected.
How Knowledge Level Farming Works
Enemy EXP Chains
Enemy-chain farming is one of the most effective repeatable methods for earning Knowledge.
A chain is created by continuously defeating eligible enemies within the required time. The bonus increases with each qualifying kill and can reach chain 30.
Chain bonuses can improve:
- Knowledge earned
- Phantom EXP earned
- Eligible currency rewards
The enemy-level requirement changes depending on the number of players in the party.
Balanced-Party Farming
A party is considered balanced when its members are within three Knowledge Levels of one another.
Balanced parties receive increased Phantom EXP from enemy kills.
Knowledge Level Sync can be used to temporarily adjust higher-level party members toward the level of the lowest member, helping the party meet balanced-party and chain requirements.
FATE Farming
FATEs throughout South Horn and North Horn provide Knowledge and other progression rewards.
They can be completed alongside enemy-chain farming whenever valuable encounters appear nearby.
Critical Encounters
Critical Encounters are large-scale battles that may award:
- Knowledge
- Phantom EXP
- Zone currencies
- Soul shards
- Personal rewards
- Occult Record progress
Some Critical Encounters must first be triggered by defeating particular enemies within the zone.
Occult Crescent Quests
Quest progression can provide Knowledge while unlocking additional areas, systems, encounters, and raid content.
Relevant quests may be completed when included in your selected package.
Phantom Job Progression
Knowledge Level and Phantom Job level are separate systems.
Your Knowledge Level applies across the Occult Crescent regardless of which Phantom Job is equipped. Each Phantom Job, however, has its own individual Phantom EXP and level.
Phantom EXP Earned During the Service
Your equipped Phantom Job can earn EXP from eligible enemies, FATEs, Critical Encounters, and other activities completed during the boost.
Phantom Job progression may unlock:
- New Phantom Actions
- New Phantom Traits
- Stronger existing abilities
- Additional utility
- Phantom Mastery bonuses
You may request a preferred Phantom Job before the service begins.
A specific Phantom Job level is only guaranteed when explicitly included in the selected package.
Rewards Earned During the Boost
Occult Crescent Currencies
Knowledge farming can award currencies used at expedition vendors.
North Horn currencies include:
- Enlightenment silver obols
- Enlightenment gold obols
These can be exchanged for various equipment, materials, collectibles, and other zone rewards.
Personal Treasure Coffers
Certain activities may cause personal treasure coffers to appear.
These coffers belong to your character and do not require rolling against other party members.
Soul Shards
Soul shards obtained through eligible encounters or exchanges can be used to unlock additional Phantom Jobs.
Occult Record Progress
Quest completion, exploration, encounters, and collectible discoveries may advance your Occult Record.
Additional Rewards
Depending on the activities completed, you may also receive:
- Gear
- Materia
- Upgrade materials
- Tomestones
- Cosmetic items
- Fortune carrots
- Miscellaneous Occult Crescent drops
Specific random drops are not guaranteed unless clearly included in the selected service.
Knowledge Loss and Death Penalties
Knowledge Level progression can be lost under certain circumstances.
If your Knowledge Level is above 5 and your character returns to base camp without being revived, a portion of your Knowledge may be lost.
Leaving the instance while incapacitated can also trigger the penalty.
If the amount lost exceeds your current progress toward the next level, your Knowledge Level may decrease.
How We Reduce Knowledge Loss
Our players reduce avoidable losses by:
- Using appropriate party compositions
- Fighting enemies suited to the current level
- Prioritizing revival after incapacitation
- Avoiding unnecessary returns to camp
- Selecting suitable Phantom Jobs and actions
- Adjusting farming routes when conditions become unsafe
- Using Knowledge Level Sync when beneficial
The in-game death penalty cannot be removed, but careful and experienced play reduces unnecessary setbacks.

FFXIV Knowledge Level Boost FAQ
What is Knowledge Level in FFXIV?
Knowledge Level is a separate progression system used inside the Occult Crescent.
It affects your strength against enemies and determines access to later Occult Crescent content.
It is separate from both your normal character level and Phantom Job levels.
What is the maximum Knowledge Level?
The current maximum Knowledge Level is 40.
South Horn originally introduced levels 1–20, while North Horn expanded progression to level 40.
How do you earn Knowledge?
Knowledge is earned through eligible Occult Crescent activities, including:
- Defeating enemies
- Completing FATEs
- Clearing Critical Encounters
- Completing quests
Efficient farming generally combines enemy chains with nearby FATEs and Critical Encounters.
What is the fastest way to increase Knowledge Level?
Coordinated enemy-chain farming is one of the fastest repeatable methods under suitable conditions.
Chain bonuses increase up to chain 30 and can improve Knowledge, Phantom EXP, and currency gains.
FATEs and Critical Encounters provide additional progression whenever useful encounters are available.
Can you earn Knowledge above level 20 in South Horn?
Yes.
Characters above Knowledge Level 20 are synced down while inside South Horn, but Knowledge can continue accumulating toward higher levels.
North Horn generally provides more suitable content for progressing from level 21 to 40.
Does Knowledge Level apply to every Phantom Job?
Yes.
Knowledge Level is shared across your character’s Occult Crescent progression and is not tied to a particular Phantom Job.
Each Phantom Job has its own separate level and EXP total.
Can Knowledge Level decrease?
Yes.
Returning to camp or leaving the instance while incapacitated can cause Knowledge loss when your level is above 5.
Your Knowledge Level may decrease if the penalty exceeds your current progress within that level.
Does every death reduce Knowledge?
No.
The penalty is associated with returning to camp without being revived or leaving the instance while incapacitated.
Being revived before returning avoids that specific penalty.
What unlocks at Knowledge Level 40?
Knowledge Level 40 is required for:
- The Forked Tower: Magic
- The Forked Tower: Magic (Extreme)
Separate North Horn quests and other applicable requirements must also be completed.
Does Knowledge Level 40 automatically unlock the Forked Tower?
No.
Level 40 makes you eligible for the required progression, but the applicable unlock quests must still be completed.
Do I need to clear the Forked Tower: Blood first?
No.
A Forked Tower: Blood clear is not required to unlock North Horn or the Forked Tower: Magic.
What is the difference between South Horn and North Horn?
South Horn contains the initial Knowledge Level 1–20 progression and the Forked Tower: Blood.
North Horn expands the level cap to 40 and introduces new enemies, Phantom Jobs, encounters, currencies, equipment, and the Forked Tower: Magic.
What are EXP chains?
EXP chains are created by defeating eligible higher-level enemies consecutively within a limited period.
The chain bonus increases up to 30 and improves Knowledge, Phantom EXP, and certain currency rewards.
What is a balanced party?
A balanced party contains players who are within three Knowledge Levels of one another.
Balanced parties receive increased Phantom EXP and can use Knowledge Level Sync to help meet farming requirements.
Will my Phantom Job gain levels during the boost?
Your equipped Phantom Job will earn EXP through eligible farming activities.
The exact number of Phantom Job levels gained depends on your chosen Knowledge range, farming route, party composition, and starting Phantom Job level.
A guaranteed target must be selected as an additional service.
Do I keep the currencies and rewards?
Yes.
All eligible currencies, personal treasure, Phantom EXP, soul shards, materials, and other rewards earned during the service remain on your account.
Can I order only a few levels?
Yes.
You can select any available starting and target level, such as 17–20, 20–30, or 35–40.
Can Simple Carry unlock North Horn?
Yes, when the appropriate unlock option is selected.
Your character must meet the necessary level, story, and South Horn progression requirements.
Is the service completed manually?
Yes.
Simple Carry’s FFXIV Knowledge Level Boost is completed manually by real players without bots, cheats, or automated gameplay software.
How long does the Knowledge Level Boost take?
Completion time depends on:
- Your current Knowledge Level
- Your selected target
- South Horn and North Horn access
- Zone activity
- Party availability
- FATE and Critical Encounter spawns
- Chain consistency
- Quest progression
- Additional services selected
