Finishing Every Heavensward Relic - Getting Every Achievement in FFXIV #07
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 вер 2024
- Completing relic weapons in Final Fantasy XIV is a massive source of achievements, and on my journey to get EVERY achievement, I must of course obtain EVERY relic. And even though we're in Endwalker, the Heavensward relics are still some of the most difficult to make. So that's what we're doing today.

Missing something? Did you forget the Dragoon relic??? I can't remember you mentioning the Areadbhar!
And if you did, the only other thing I could think is maybe you forgot to account that you did the Scholar one?
EDIT: YOU DIDNT MENTION THE DRAGOON RELIC, DID YOU FORGET IT!?@?!?!?
EDIT EDIT: YOU DONT HAVE DRAGOON UNLOCKED!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
EDIT edit edit I'm gonna have a fit
The worst part was when he hovered on the anima weapon achievements to really drill the joke home
Oh gods I went back after reading your comment and you're right!! Dragoon is missing!! Oh nooooo xD
Guess the grind is not over yet
It's a good thing he deleted all those extra pieces of relic items that'd just be clogging up his inventory...
why did he do that?
@@coreyd4482 I KNOW AAAH THAT HURTS TO SEE 🤣
That level 90 lancer is sending me into fits of sheerly deranged joker laughter and I can't stop. Good video.
The real reason why "Ukonvasara" sucks as a name for the relic in question is that the name translates to "Ukko's hammer", and the weapon itself is an axe.
I mean what is an axe but a really sharp hammer?
@@ThatKirisamewhat is a hammer but an axe in dire need of sharpening
Instead of bonking its chopping :D but yea love the Finnish names but this rubs me wrongly
came here to say this. glad i didnt need to (so many games make this same mistake and its funny every time....)
It's weird to me that they did this. Not because Ukonvasara is an axe, but because while in FFXIV it's a sharp axe, in FFXI Ukonvasara is still a great axe but it does in fact have large, flat edges where the blades should be that makes it more like a hammer then a great axe. It's like they knew but elected to not make it a kind of hammer in XIV despite doing it in XI.
The way the "Child Labor" quest has just been left uncompleted. That has to be intentional.
Some deep Charity Nineheart lore here: She can’t do the Dragoon relix, because she can’t be a Dragoon. Guess those tiny feet really aren’t made for jumping.
The ability to reach the light switch is a power that Hydaelyn denies the angriest baby for all our sakes. She would become far too powerful.
or the counter at a wendy's. we would all be doomed if angry baby could order her own wendys, instead Mom must do it (we have wendy's at home)
The items for the relics, when they were current, cost uncapped tomestones. At the time, it was law, esoterics, and lore. They never required the capped tomestones, which were esoterics, lore, and scripture.
Which is nice.
What isn't nice is that the amount of tomestones required was SO MUCH MORE. The Umbrite step, for example, cost roughly 27 thousand lore tomes. PER WEAPON. ARF was run a lot, since it gave 150 per run. Hence the idiom, "ARF 'til you BARF"
Not being able to spend Scripture tomes for the umbrite grind essentially made roulettes useless, so ARF grinding was really your only choice. And Twelve forbid you had a healer who couldn't dodge ice balls and/or a summoner who didn't have swiftcast...
Not to mention the light grind was absolutely criminal. Not only was it current so you couldn't just blast through in under 2 minutes, but the yield was lesser.
Don't forget that the Dispelling Arrows, Kingcakes, Titanium Alloy Mirrors, and Adamantite Francescas had to be HQ crafted and couldn't just be bought from company seals (unless you opted to buy the HQ crafted items on the market board, which the cost of all weapons combined would easily be up in the tens of millions.)
Don't even get me started on the drop rates on those FATEs...
if I never do ARF again it'll be too soon
That ending was painful when I realised you didn't have the Dragoon relic
30:16 I don't know, man. I don't see Dragoon on this list. Are you sure that's it?
31:03 he still doesn’t have drg achievements completed. Oh boy, guess back to step 1 😨
Thanks to this comment I noticed the first time he rattled off the jobs
Skipped my favorite (and currently only) HW relics.
Keep in mind the real grind for the Manderville weapons are the ten years of side quests you have to do if you weren't already caught up with them.
My goal by Dawntrail is to be top 25 on Excalibur/Primal and get to 85% completed achievements. Currentlyranked 32 at 78% completed. I watch your stream while grinding achievements! Thanks for the motivation!
Primal is a tough server to hit that high in the leaderboards on, that's some crazy dedication
Ah, for 85% completion - that's somewhere in the neighborhood of 22,500 at time of writing. Those numbers would put you up in the top 10 :) Keep grinding!
Cider you are a complete madman. For doing almost all of this on stream. Also keep the Meme alive, because there is no Lancer Relic weapon.
(psst! Little time-saver tip: For those parts of the game where you have to spam-click the same button over, you can spam-press numpad 0 instead. It's a bit easier on your hands than spam clicking. Also very useful when turning in lots of gear to your GC!)
I.. dont know if its a bit or not, but he totally forgot about Dragoon..
And then did the thing at the end.
Welp.
It's totally a bit - he doesn't even have DRG unlocked lol
As someone that made all of the Relics as they were current (because I have a crippling completionist addiction) some of the grinds were painful; especially the first step of the Anima Relic as it was lengthened to be the same time as was predicted for Gordias Savage. So many damn Unidentified pieces...
As a DRG main, Your lack of DRG hurts my soul. We only lay on the floor because it feels nice and cool on our face.
So it's like when I was in undergrad and got shitfaced drunk. Got it, no wonder I've slacked in leveling dragoon.
The little "wah!" with each achievement or quest completion makes me smile every time :D
Wah!
You most definitely missed one. How do you even HAVE a Lvl 90 LANCER?!
I kept waiting for the realization that he missed one and that's why he had leftovers.
30:16 Judging by this class list, I'd say he knows exactly what he's doing. Let's just say he's missing a little more than a relic weapon for one of his classes.
I was worried he was doing it on accident and was gonna suddenly realize but it's for a bit apparently lol
Happy New Year! What's your first achievement of 2024?
I started playing the game this year! 🎉
I guess pld to lvl 90, or something else, I wasn't paying attention, lol
Black mage lux weapon :3
Bound by Hope ("The Seventh Dawn" title)
Finally beating Gogo, gettting 1-312 triple triad cards....and being 1 orchestrion away from 100%.
RIP Dragoon relic ;-;
Imagine doing all Relics from all expansions already...
It was a good Covid project
That is NOT the voice i was expecting to come out of that character.
Naw, the deep Square lore in Keeper of the Lake is that one of its midbosses refers to the awesome shoot-em-up Squaresoft made in 1997. You might have heard of it -- _Einhänder._ The Endymion critters in Sea of Clouds are another reference - some of the playable fighter ships of Einhänder are called that.
Some tips that might help you
- Farm SHB relic fates with HW fates (too late for that lol)
- Farm ARR relic fates while doing the 10k fate achievements and the achievement fates (make sure its always equipped)
- While waiting for fate on ARR relic books do your dungeon runs, pop out if not there, do the next dungeon.
- You'll never be free of our Lord and saviour The Hunt
- Do your tank achievements while doing mentor roulette. Youll get instant queues and chances are decent you'll get a dungeon that applies to one of them.
my new years resolution is 1080p, what can I say I'm a 2000s girl
I am now getting the memory of running great gubal hard like 40 times before realizing A1S was easy and quicker back in HW. Definitely wasn't stepping into a current savage tier at that point.
"We ended the week with a total of, that's right, 69 ACHIEVEMENTS."
Nice.
Also, fantastic job on the grind.
looking forward to the Eureka videos when you do the Stormblood relics, should be a good five videos or so
At a tip: The scrips can be replaced with poetics or grand company seals. Scrips are just the most cost efficient way to do that step, since you can farm them easily. But there's an item in both the grand company and poetics shops that can be used instead if you don't want to level any crafters. From the poetics, you can use Superior Enchanted Ink and Thavnairian Mist for 6750 poetics for that step. From the grand company, you can use Moonstones for 1.5 million seals. Per weapon... Why'd I get all those moonstones...
I will be honest, I checked your lalachievements timeline recently and my jaw dropped when i saw you got almost 800 achievement points in 1 day from relics! I am hoping to catch one of your streams soon. Anyways, now i am gonna enjoy your video!
Glad because small posted!
When I saw the lancer, I laughed so hard. Another great video. I swear it's making me want to try and complete my achievements. But then I remember how long it takes sometimes and then my ADHD side of me is like....Maybe I'll do it next week.
This week I'm sorry to report you may have missed out on more progress for hunts. At least on Aether, when the new year rolled around it seems like it reset all the SS rank hunt lockout timers, shortly after midnight on the first we had a chain across the servers of spawning (iirc) 6 or 7 in a row
Oh yea, I remember seeing all the SS ranks poppin off on New Years, a shame he missed out :(
Nah, there wasn't any unusual spawning behavior there, just more people around than usual. Timer reset looks significantly different, we'll see the true chains after 6.55 maintenance.
There is no such thing as SS rank hunt lockout timers lol, SS rank spawns are RNG. You guys just had a lucky run, nothing more, it happens.
Honestly was pretty fun helping you out with the light farming and victory laps, finally got me to finish some of the anima weapons I'd been sitting on at that stage for months.
I got kicked out of my childhood home in december by my abusive mom, and I've been roomming with a friend since then, so my overall new year's goal is to become as self sufficient as I can as quickly as possible.
You should try giving up. I recommend it, it's quite boring and depressing.
My new years resolution is to get to a point where "survive" isn't my goal every year. same as usual, but I'll get there eventually I'm sure...
"almost certainly the worst part of the grind" ignoring the part where you have to first farm fates for hours for the first materials (if you don't want to throw away all your zodiac weapons that is)
"Throwing away" your Zodiac weapons that way iirc unlocks the ability to get glam versions of them, so it's pure upside. And even if my memory is faulty, cutting the worst grind down where possible is worth it.
Also: fuck the Zodiac weapons. Fucking books...
@@InnocentGuillotine I recently tested this when someone asked about it in novice chat and I deleted my paladin 50 relic which I did not use for 60 relic and I lost the ability to buy replicas for it lol.
it's such a shame we'll never be able to get the dragoon relic weapons because the job is only available to estinien. oh well, the relics you got are pretty cool to make up for that! :) another great video, CS! looking forward to seeing you break top 100!
I always felt the DRK Tyrant weapon reminded me of Nightmare 's sword from soul caliber
My New Year's resolution game-wise is to get a brand new character in a brand new account to 6.55 before Dawntrail drops. If you want to help out Rose Rubytear the Elezen on Excaliber, get to the end of Endwalker and get omni-90 on all jobs and earn the platinum trophy on the Playstation 5 version of the game, and maybe 100% most of the expansion DLC by doing the Savage raids, I'd be VERY grateful. I'm going to try to log in during the evenings so I have time in the morning to get trophies on my Playstation games.
"With each consecutive dungeon my soul dies a little bit more" - I get you bro, I am doing all ARR relics now, 11 relics, 44 runs of Aurum Vale per relic meaning 484 runs just to farm light were a nightmare...
To be fair, for achievement purposes, you only need to fully complete ONE relic from ARR. Everything else you need to do only the first step, AND that unlocks the base relic in the calamity salvager, so you don't even need to keep it around in case you want to complete the collection later down the line.
@@NibelungJ I don't hunt acheivements, I just want those weapons.
Can't wait for the triple triad card collecting episode
Relics drain you baaadd. That’s why I can’t just do them back to back. I have done a majority of them but don’t burn yourself out!! Lol. Then again, gotta get it done!
Oh, the pain you must have felt when you realized why you had "spare" materials leftover. I've also pre-farmed all the mats for the Heavensward Relics, but I haven't steeled myself yet for the amount of soul-crushing boredom that is going to be inflicted upon me from the journey. Someday... Someday... >.>
I’ve been slowly saving up to finish all my hw relics like you did. Though I think I’ll just focus on 1 day to save what little sanity remains in me.
My goal in FFXIV is to catch every fish in the game. This is a multi year goal considering burnout happens >_> Been working on it for the past year and a half on and off.
my goal is pretty simple in description but for anyone who has attempted it, they know it's anything but. my goal is to wrangle 7 idiots for an entire expansion's worth of raid tiers, extreme trials and ultimates. without it falling apart. running a static is suffering
So im just poking around wondering how hes getting the x hundread treasures from deep dungeon with out the pomander that lets you see them.... thats a luck bs achivement that is imo impossible
I hate to be the one to break this to you, but you didn't have extra materials... you just didn't do any of the Dragoon relic steps. Have fun grinding all those materials back since you threw them away!
Why was the ending so ominous? Did you... actually forget one of the relics?
Take a real close look at that ending lol
@@PervertedNovaxc3 Dragoon...
Right... There's 13 relic weapons there thanks to the paladin shield being separate.
funny thing is he doesn't even have Dragoon unlocked, its a level 90 lancer lol@@greyngo
If you want some recommendation for a chill farm, I'd say the chocobo races are pretty ok! Gj for the relics
...Ah, damnit, I might have to grind that WHM stick...
wait no that sounded-
If you're looking for something chill to do next week, may I suggest ocean fishing? It's a good time! And open tournaments in the gold saucer are on the other hour, so you can alternate those to progress those achievements. And just do gold saucer fate stuff in general!
I finished 60 relics too. For now I'm working on the 50 relics which are the hardest imo.
I did 9 of them while current and the lightgrind was the worst for me, bout 2h per weapon since we couldnt just roll it over in 20sec each
These videos have become my Saturday morning: drag my ass out of bed and get shit done around the house videos. Can't wait for next week.
I wish there was a quest after getting all the relics. Wanna celebrate having 13 of those fairy things around me
My dude is committing to this grind with a deliberate handicap??? Damn, that's nuts. I hope you get every achievement that doesn't require Dragoon before you ever unlock it, lol.
I've coincidentally also been grinding relics this week, although I'm starting with the ARR relics. It's not the most relevant for achievement purposes since there's only achievements for the first step for some reason, but my completionist brain won't let me ignore them. I'm at the point where I've gathered all the vendor and crafted materials and now I'm just suffering through the insane grind of SIXTEEN DUNGEONS PER RELIC to get the quest items I'll need for each one. Then I can actually start the relic quests themselves and turn everything in... although those quests have 2 entire light-farming steps per relic as well, plus a few other random trials, so it'll still be about as bad as Heavensward I think. Can't wait.
My achievements this week:
- Level 80 Culinarian and Bard
- 50 guildhests
- 80 unique Fisher leves, 20 unique Miner leves, 100 total fieldcraft leves
- Rank 6 with Pixie tribe
- 60 deliveries to Charlemend and 1000 total collectables crafted
- PvP rank 30 with the Immortal Flames
Congrats on your new rankings!
…
And people want us to return to such grinds for relics???
Why tf are people complaining about Endwalker relics being too easy? I want to live and do stuff… old relic grinds are just so… wtf… time sink…
While I absolutely welcome having more free time to tackle other things, I think they swung too hard on the "too easy" direction. And it will become even easier starting next expansion, when the relic will only requires poetics.
I'm still hoping the last stage will ask us do some token thing instead of just 1500 tomestones again. It don't need to be *this* level of grind, but something like buying stuff with Variant coins to give us a reason to delve back there after completing all 12 endings and buying all the glam we wanted.
Level 90 Lancer.... OOF 🤣
HW relics are way less esoteric or grindy than any other relic besides the EW relics. But they're arguably just as boring to actually obtain as the EW relics, unless you're just really into Hildibrand.
I had gotten 2 hw relics on the free trial.
To say it was pain is a understatement
It always fascinates me how stupid so many machinist guns look.
i like the complaints about this set of relics. when ARR relics are sooooo much more of a time sink.
Originally that would have been true but 50 relic has been nerfed the most and you only need to do 1 to get all achievements.
He had all tome materials ready so obviously making a single 60 relic is going to be faster than doing doing one 50 relic from scratch.
Soon you will get to do all of the Eureka relics!
I think the best way to take a break from an awful grind is to do the mentor roulette mount achievement.
As someone who made all the Tank ones
*_I'm so sorry_*
Phew. I’ve been whittling away at these for a couple years now along with the ARR relics. You’re an extra special WOL for doing it all at once lol GG
Som Al is one of my favorite dungeons in HW because it is just well done.
I am not sure why, but the way you screamed "THOK AST THOK!" made me laugh so hard that I hurt myself. 🤣🤣🤣
I finished all my HW relics last year. It was not fun. You know what's also not fun? Eureka relic weapons lol
Did you do the Dragoon Relic?
Ooh, if you think the HW relics are a grind.....Just wait until the ARR ones.
You only have to fully complete 1 ARR relic for the Z achievement. The other ARR relic achievements you get from doing just the first step.
@@hiten_styleHe’s after all achievements though, meaning he’ll eventually have to go for them all for the “Insatiable” title.
@@Nenerineri Insatiable only requires you to do the first step of each relic. For example, it lists Curtana as the required PLD weapon, not Excalibur Zeta.
My (ffxiv) goals for this year involve getting all my wolves, hitting all 100s in dawntrail (almost done with 90s), and maybe get all relics of one class.
Absolutely sick. Wish I had the time to play this game like that. Absolutely loved playing though the first three expansions.
Love the videos! During the down time before Dawntrail you have inspired me to complete the same challenge for the Gilgamesh server, top 100 here I come!
I love that Cider started doin these videos and now im seein other content creators do the same thing xD
i made dragoon and machinist on content. this was a hell of a grind, but watching flamethrower on a deathlocke lux for the first time gave me so much satisfaction
It's so funny ppl were complaining about EW relics, bcs it's just farming tomes, while hardest part of HW relics is literally farming tomes....
Now that I think about it the Zodiac weapons would probably be pretty easy to in a week. The only achievements available for ARR are getting the base versions of each weapon, and 2 collective achievements for the last 2 steps. It’s a shame it’s structured like this since I think Zodiac relics are the best designed ones in the game, but there’s no achievements for Cider to go after the first step basically.
MR SPIDER SIR!!! ARE YOU ALSO A RESIDENT EVIL FAN?!?!! AFTER WATCHING LIKE 100 VIDEOS IVE NOTICED YOU MAKE R.E. REFERENCES OFTEN 😭❤️🙏
Cider Spider face reveal???? That's not what I would have ever guessed what you looked like! *waves to the screen*
Y- you skipped Dragoon... and threw away everything you would need to complete Dragoon...
Did you do this on purpose? Do you hate Dragoon? Maybe I'm not a true fan but I don't recall you ever saying you hate Dragoon >.> Wait... why the hell do you have *Lancer* at 90 and NOT DRAGOON?!
The level 90 lancer is SENDING me...Lancer was my first class and Dragoon my first 90.
hooooo boy....who's ready for a whole episode about dragoon?
69 achievements!?
Insert Bill and Ted with a Wyld Stallyns riff.
wait, Biggs and Wedge's great grandchildren are doing WHAT in the Keeper of the Lake zone?!?!?!
That said, I will say that so far the HW relics are the easiest to zoom through (for certain aspects of 'zoom') compared to the hell that is ARR. But then, I haven't started the SB grind. For some reason I don't like those weapon designs. :/
We did green treasure maps for unidentified stuff, 200 poetics(or Soldiery, whatever it was) per map and if you managed to fail, which could happen because those were hard(back then), you had nothing. Other option was item exchange with Ulan, or beast tribes daily.
Also hope you got a spare 4 MILLION GILL lying around as there are 10 ARR relics and they require 4 vender items for one step and the vender items cost 100,000 gill.... yeah..... prepare to become a poor!
Yeah I could never do all of these. Working on Paladin which will likely be my 3rd and final HW relic. I don't mind a grind considering that I'm a former Destiny veteran but damn, this grind takes it out of you. On the bright side, I had time to prepare items ahead of time so I'm blitzing through the Paladin relic at a fast pace, currently working on wrapping up the crystal sand step
I guess if I had any New Years Resolution, it'd be to finally get caught up to the current patch.
So that I can enjoy Dawntrail right when its fresh and new with my pals.
(Currently going through Base Shadowbringers at the time of this comment)
I've been conditioned to assume that if a FFxiv youtuber has "forgotten" or "miscalculated" something, it's Blue Mage related and now I'm trying to look up if there's a BLU anima relic
If you have completed the ARR relics, you skip the dungeons. At least, I don't ever needing to run them when I did my relic grind. Fully completed ARR relics let you skip a step early on in the HW relic grind.
This, of course, requires doing the ARR relic grind, which is somehow even more soulcrushing (case in point: Book phase). Cider's gonna have to do those eventually, but I can understand the temptation do the (relatively) easier relic grind first.
You skip very first stage where you need to collect 6 crystals from fates in HW zones
C'mon. "Boy and the Dragon Gay" is Estinien/Vrtra, my guy.
Between ARR and HW, I'd definitely do HW again. You couldn't pay me to do ARR relic again... okay, that was a lie, but I'd hate you every second of it.
Question...the Anima weapons are like the Zodiac one...wen you compleat the chain you can unlocke the replica of all the stage of the weapon you gave compleat? Or is a bit different?
When he was saying "hmm, I have all this stuff left" and making a show of discarding all of it, I was like "he missed something, didn't he?" 👀💦 Then I saw what people were saying in the comments.
That being said, I assume he did it for the 69 achievements bit. :D
Its wacky what achievement hunters go through. I've heard all of the pain from others in discords. I am not that strong.
It's another thing entirely to watch it happen on a video log on a weekly basis lmao.
As always I wish you the best in this hell and it's extremely entertaining watching the details + snarky commentary.
It's a treat every week. And we appreciate you sharing your journey with us.
I started exercising again. After my Grandmother passed I ended up in a depression spiral that broke the habit, so I'm gonna get back in to it slowly but surely
Good luck! I'm currently training for my first half-marathon in April (I started running during covid) and I'm trying to work in more strength training so I don't develop any leg injuries as we get closer to April. Running has helped me manage my anxiety and depression, this winter vacation was rough when visiting family because I couldn't run as much as I would have liked and it made me irritable at the end of the trip.
@@jessicawilson1751 yo good luck to you as well, and thanks!
While I was baking kingcake to make my own anima relic, I realized the moggle is baby Jesus. I baked it into the cake like the story and what is the pastry that celebrates using a little ceramic baby Jesus inside the cake called but a Rosca de Reyes(king’s cake). Kinda died laughing
God, I remember doing relics in ARR... I'd take HW relics over ARR relics any day. But I haven't got the dedication to make more than one of each.
Excellent… now the ARR relics 😈
