Solo Self-Found Mode (SSF)

panisch has made an unofficial SSF FAQ/Guide on his Discord Server. This is not an official source supported by CW FlyFF, but may be helpful to players, nonetheless.

The Solo Self-Found Mode (SSF), is a game mode available on the main Clockworks server. It allows players to experience CW FlyFF in a different way, only able to use items that they have found. The main attractions of SSF are the removal of the ability to buy overpowered gear at lower levels, and the inability to trade or be meaningfully boosted by other players, resulting in a very unique and "self-made" experience.

To alleviate the burden of not having teammates to run with, and because items from SSF mode cannot be sold or traded, the dungeon entry limit system is also removed for SSF players, allowing them to run dungeons as many times as they would like.

These changes generally favor a solo and more casual playstyle.

SSF is a mode largely geared toward more experienced players, or players who are interested in a solo playstyle. If you're new to the server but are interested in SSF, make sure you're familiar with the game-mechanics and what items you'll need. See the General Progression Guide for information about character progression.

In order to create an SSF character, you must select the "Solo Self-Found Mode" checkbox at character creation.

Make sure to select SSF mode if you want to play an SSF character! I've already had to delete 10+ characters because I forgot to check the stupid checkbox.

When you create an SSF character, you will be tagged with [SSF] to indicate that your character is created with SSF Mode enabled. This prevents you from trading and interacting with non-SSF characters.

[SSF] tag on a character's name.
