I love that you said "I started doing it for the Minion" and then you show a cool-ass minion. And then proceed to "But don't worry about those, we're here for MGP." Forget the MGP, those minions are rad! I'm grabbing those!
It's really good to know Verminion has an NPC tournament option like Triple Triad does. I was always too intimidated to even bother signing up for the Verminion tournaments because I figured the people who play them are going to be WAY better than me at it. Thank you for the easy guide. Also, my favorite minion is my little Bantam Train my fiancée gave to me.
Yeah, the NPC option is such a blessing! you have to wait forever if you queue for a player match, and then you're always playing the same person anyway so it's not very interesting. I'm actually curious if it's more popular on JP servers because of the vermilion arcade game
Verminion is such a hidden MGP farm it's great. On Diabolos there's maybe 4-5 people who do the tournaments so even when I absolutely screw up and get dead last I'm still pulling in 100k MGP.
Finally got around to watching this video and trying it out. I know the description says this strategy is good for winning a couple of bot matches in a tournament, but I found it to be plenty with a small amount of macro on the windup gentlemen to win all 15 rounds. Extremely helpful guide and it was surprisingly fast to get through all 15 matches.
i saw this guide about a month ago when it was brand new. tonight, i got the twintania minion and immediately got the notif that the tournament window is open!
Thanks for this guide! I didn't have the wind-up Kojin, but I found a good alternative in Wind-Up Gaia, and tbh her being a crystal-smasher is just thematically appropriate to me. And I love having the dream team of Hildibrand, Estinian, and Gaia, three characters who I love but have NEVER gotten to meet each other.
This was incredibly helpful thank you! I'm a raider and ironically this type of casual side content like Lord of Verminion and Ocean Fishing is what intimidates me the most! I can jump into any raid no problem, but a lot of the Gold Saucer scares me lol. This guide helped break it down and made it very easy to understand.
Ocean fishing intimidates me too! there's a discord community called fisherman's horizon that I'll probably join once I'm ready to tackle those achievements.
Yay! Thank you for letting me know. I always check the subtitles in french (my second language) before publishing to make sure that the translation is working 😊
Lord of Verminion is something I am getting around to learning how to do.... in the meantime, I afk my 27k challenge each week. I have done the tutorial, and now I just afk "Hatching a Plan" five times for the challenge. You don't have to win, just play, even if it's afking. That being said, thank you for this video. :)
Your video makes sense, but I don't like RSTs and I'd rather farm MGP doing something I enjoy. I still give big props to the devs keeping it supported with future minions in each patch and keeping them balanced. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
I was beyond intimidated by Verminion for... all my time playing, but next time I drop by the Gold Saucer I ought to give it a shot! I've got so many prize items I'm gunning for, but they're all so dang pricy...
Thank you for this. I saw this video and in two hours, did all the challenges and I got myself Twintania and will do this weekly, since it only takes like 10 minutes most
Thanks for the video! Verminion's a nice little distraction. I like the perfect little Gentleman and his lovely assistant a lot, of course, but I also really like my cute Black Coeurl (that I picked up years ago and has been with me for all my adventures, of course) and Wind-Up Golbez minions (I like the character).
Last time I tried to get into Verminion the only strategy I could find people talking about was "RELEASE THE HOUNDS", which worked ok but never felt like I was playing properly. Thanks for the tutorial, I'm definitely going to give it another go now!
Yesssss, the wolf pup strat! that's so funny. it works pretty well for boss challenges, but it takes them forever to destroy crystals in a regular match since they don't have any strengths
Yeah same here, I saw some just spam this one minion for easy win guide when I last tried Verminion like 2-3 years ago and it out me off from continuing to play Verminion. This is such a better guide.
Super easy to understand, thanks! I'm not sure which of these minions I have currently, but I'll play around with this next time I'm on! Always been meaning to give this minigame a proper go but just never seemed to have gotten around to it. Oh, and OMG is my favourite pet. It's been my little adventure buddy ever since I got it.
What a helpful guide! Thank you so much! I get easily confused with Verminion, so this was a real treat, no trick. 😉Thanks for the awesome work! Take my sub as a thanks, and an encouragement to do more of whatever makes you happy. 😊
Well wasn’t expecting to see this but this does ease the nerves about verminion’s difficulty. I’ll definitely be saving this for later. As for favorite minion I’ve got 5: Alagan melon, fat cat, blizzaria, damona, the great serpent of Ronka (Screee!).
Excellent guide, thank you so much. One of my favorite minions is the Tiny Troll because it looked like my old dog, who unfortunately passed away earlier this year.
My favourite minion is the pink rat. Sponge Silkie. She is fast and good against shield, but she is also cheap and weak, need 2 Silkie per 1 Estinien. Also love this guide, I really wanna try get back into Verminion again after last playing it 2-3 years ago.
Oh wow, silkie is really cheap! she's weak, but I think you could just use her to destroy the shield and summon one extra kojin to make the match go even faster 👀
I did all of the challenges a million years ago on my old min, but I felt like I forgot how to play since then so I felt intimidated about trying to do them again on my current main character. Seeing your video makes me feel like it's really doable! I may even try to do the tournament... Oh, and my two favorite minions are Morpho and the caramel colored bunny. ♡
Man, the Golden Saucer is a big game inside another big game. I have played just a fraction of those "mini-games", I have make a lot of money limiting myself only to the cactpot lottery and the fashion game.
The method i use is (playing “master battle) mammets (the one from minion vendor or any of the GC ones work), set up 3 on A and C during the startup, summon another 2 at each spot and send them up when they spawn. Enemy crystals will blow up with enemy generally focusing center down. Wait for them to break your center and move your mammets to center. Win. Basically can do all the challenge log matches in like 15 minutes or less (roughly 2-3 minutes per match depending on what minions the AI spawns cause some cause them to take longer to destroy your crystal lol)
I have a different strategy for farming MGP through the tournaments. It relies on Wind up Kojin and Wind up Fafnir. At the start, spawn six Fafnirs on the sides, and send them towards the summoning gates to destroy them and stem the flow of enemy minions. Then, continuously span in Kojins and send them against the arcana crystal (on the same side you spawned the Fafnirs). You will have to pause directing the Kojins to the arcana crystal to send the Fafnirs against another gate, but if done correctly you destroy the gates just as you have sent the kojins against another arcana stone. It's simple, effective, and matches last about 2 to 3 minutes. I like to go for all the matches in a tournament just to ensure I get full prizes, which can exceed 100K MGP (and that's without the card boost !)
I use the zerg strat. Two groups of 8 Wolf Pups. Their special ability increases damage done by all beasts which they are, so extra damage and great speed. Each round takes 3 minutes so quick and easy. The first 4-5 matches, you can just zerg it and ignore the enemy. If yiu do more than that, you'll have to take out the enemy groups.
If you _dont_ want to play verminion but you _do_ want mgp rewards, I timed how long it takes to lose each match (losing still counts towards challenge log) and Children of Mandragora is the fastest. I just plop myself into 5 of those while i'm doing chores or whatever to get them sweet weekly rewards. YW 😀
Wow, I've always been content with farming mgp on the side via gates but after seeing how much mgp this gives out I might have to give this mode a shot and start going for the pricier rewards
Let me know if you have any questions! fashion report is usually pretty easy to do as well. kaiyokostar on twitter puts out a guide every week to get 60,000 MGP so I just do that whenever I pick up my cactpot consolation prizes 😊
Well, I _do_ want the Blackjack, so I might need to add this the the GS rotation. Favorite minion of mine is Wind-up Nanamo and Halloween glam is Hatsune Miku. The shirt from the All Saint's Wake event reminded me of Miku, so I did that.
The closest we will get to blitzball this is nothing like blitzball. Thanks for the tips on getting mgp but you can't compare those two. If I wanna blitz I will hop on ff10 because there is no substitute.
Puff of darkness, Pixie, and Herois are my favorite minions. Absolutely jank and not useful for Verminion, but I love those 3 so they are on my hotbar for Verminion anyway
I think I just need to practice coz woof am I bad at verminion. Could also be that I didn't know the rules or had dog ass minions too. I WILL DEF TRY NOW THO WITH THIS NEWFOUND KNOWLEDGE. TY VM, PLZ HAVE AN EXCELLENT DAY. 🙏
I'm so lost on these and the racing. I've been trying to lv up everything to 100 so I can full focus on adventuring. I'm gonna find all the sightseeing spots afterward
If you still need to complete the original sightseeing log, there's a great website that tracks them (search "sightseeing log helper" if you're interested) since the requirements for each vista can be cruel and unusual. I've been enjoying finding the stormblood vistas on my own, but whoever came up with the ARR ones is a monster...
It's infuriating that the menu interface to build your Verminion hotbar doesn't have a search feature. You have to click through page by page to find the minions you want. Ugh... I had completed all of the challenges long ago, but wasn't actually aware that there was a tournament option to play against the computer so I had never stepped in. Thank you for this guide!
I spent so long trying to optimize my damage against crystals, only to find out here that the ATK stat doesn't actually affect crystal damage. Oh well :/
They should really make that information more clear in the tutorial. I had to do so many weird experiments just to figure out how much faster the specialized minions can do damage
I dont have a Halloween glam right now. But my favorite minion is by far the Copycat Bulb. Spent 18m on that and it will always be the minion I have out lol
I had no idea that you could participate in a tournament without playing against other actual people. Always just assumed it'd be near impossible to find matches on my server unless I got a friend into lord of verminion.
If its anything like triple triad, theres a non zero chance that more recent minion you dont ahve access to since you havent done SHB->DT (From what I can telll of your channel, this video is thefirst time i hear of you ^^;), so I'm curious to check what I have and which are good. I keep forgetting to give this mini game a chance. But to be fair, I enjoy the chocobo race and even bred mine and still forget it most weeks
Absolutely! I'm only in post-stormblood right now, so there are still a bunch of minions that I don't have. also, I think chocobo racing might be one of my next videos. I didn't think that it was very fun at first, but now it's one of my favourite things to do at the saucer 😊
@@grimsalad took me a while to fully appreciate it, but in small dose its a fun little mini game, especially at higher level when theres a lot of depth to the system and the added obstacles. I spent a lot of time grinding it and it never felt like a chore
My favorite minion is probably bad at Verminion, but it's the Nagxian Cat. He serves as a reminder of a precious cat I had who sadly isn't here anymore. He's adventured with me to the edge of existence and back, and I'll never forget him that way.
I wanted to optimize for quick matches. kidragoras are weak against enemy attacks and very slow to move, so matches can end up being 2 minutes or longer if you get unlucky. it definitely still works though!
I actually did think about that before making this video! but the tournament bonus is so generous even if you place poorly. we had a bunch of people playing on siren one week and I still got 75k+ for getting like... 14th place
I wanna redownload ffxiv but everytime I play the game, I'm just like eh, I'll just watch youtube. I don't know if it's the combat or what but I can never get into the game
The irony of Haurchefant being good at destroying shields x,x
Well, yea, I guess, 😅
Oh no... It's Raubahn's card all over again. ;-;
i JUST wantet to write the exact same thing!
My feels...
god damn
I had millions of mgp...
Then I bough some cards.
damn u cloud strife
I love that you said "I started doing it for the Minion" and then you show a cool-ass minion. And then proceed to "But don't worry about those, we're here for MGP."
Forget the MGP, those minions are rad! I'm grabbing those!
Woooo, good luck! I didn't even show off my default minion (shalloweye) which you get from winning 50 player matches. it's such a cute little freak
It's really good to know Verminion has an NPC tournament option like Triple Triad does. I was always too intimidated to even bother signing up for the Verminion tournaments because I figured the people who play them are going to be WAY better than me at it. Thank you for the easy guide.
Also, my favorite minion is my little Bantam Train my fiancée gave to me.
Just use the Black Coeurl. You don't need any other minions, just get a massive blob of cats and keep them together.
Yeah, the NPC option is such a blessing! you have to wait forever if you queue for a player match, and then you're always playing the same person anyway so it's not very interesting. I'm actually curious if it's more popular on JP servers because of the vermilion arcade game

Don't forget me when you're a MGPillionaire 💅
Okay, army of fat cats is exactly what I always wanted
glad this showed up in my recommendations; never touched Verminion before now.
Penguin minion???? Shit that’s all you had to say!!!!

Congratulations on the twintania! 😊
That Blitzball music at the start took me back to spending an entire summer in high school playing Final Fantasy 10 and loving Blitzball.
Thanks for this guide!
I didn't have the wind-up Kojin, but I found a good alternative in Wind-Up Gaia, and tbh her being a crystal-smasher is just thematically appropriate to me. And I love having the dream team of Hildibrand, Estinian, and Gaia, three characters who I love but have NEVER gotten to meet each other.
Yay! I'm glad that it worked for you. making minion dream teams is the best part 😊
Thank you for making Verminion much less overwhelming!
and my favorite minion is probably the unicolt. It's just so darn cute!
Yesss, I love the unicolt!

After watching this I think it’s time for me to finally go for that sweet adorable prince penguin!
Get that sweet baby boy!
After getting around 400 minions, wolf pup is still my favorite. His little tail wagging is so freaking cute.
I had no idea Verminion was this great 😳 tysm for this forbidden knowledge!!
Thank you SO MUCH! I can't wait to put this guide to use :D My favorite minion is by far the wind-up Grebuloff
You're very welcome! 😊
Non english speaker here. I really appreciate that you put subtitles, it was really easy to understand. Maybe i'll give it a try. Thanks!!!

Thank you for the reminder that this content exists. Great guide, gonna try it for myself
I saw the title and genuinely groaned "I don't wanna!"
I keep wanting to get into verminion I should really give it a shot. Thanks for reminding me.
I was beyond intimidated by Verminion for... all my time playing, but next time I drop by the Gold Saucer I ought to give it a shot! I've got so many prize items I'm gunning for, but they're all so dang pricy...
This is so clear! Love it and thank you! Favorite minion is the Little lady of Darkness. She sits on your shoulder and is adorable when doing it.
I love her!

Great tutorial, gonna have to try this sometime
I love my cactuar minions like Royal Lunatender and Tankardtender!
Heck yeah, been doing this for years. xD I don't even need anything from the saucer anymore. I just like seeing the MGP grow. 😂

No! My secret MGP farming secrets!
Every time i learn about ff14 i find out that theres another reference to something square enix related lol
Well, I _do_ want the Blackjack, so I might need to add this the the GS rotation.
Favorite minion of mine is Wind-up Nanamo and Halloween glam is Hatsune Miku. The shirt from the All Saint's Wake event reminded me of Miku, so I did that.
That glam sounds so cute! 💙
@@grimsalad I like it. Fits pretty well with bard or dancer.
I'm using The Behelmeted Serpent of Ronka as my shield breaker. And I'm hoping SE will add a minion of the Greatest Serpent of Tural :D SCREEEE!!!
i don't know if verminion has been updated between when i played and now but you could utterly destroy 99% of the stages with Wolf Pup
The closest we will get to blitzball this is nothing like blitzball. Thanks for the tips on getting mgp but you can't compare those two. If I wanna blitz I will hop on ff10 because there is no substitute.

thank you for the guide
Man, the first rule about verminion is don’t talk about it now there’s actual competition for first place lol

I can't get normal roulettes to pop on Dynamis, how am I supposed to join a Verminion tournament? One day we'll have people, hopefully...
Don't despair - you can queue for "master tournament" against NPCs which will pop instantly!
I really wish this mini-game was even remotely playable for console players :(
I wish that it were friendlier to console players too! it's kind of surprising since most JP players use controller
I didn't know this existed
I'll play verminion when it has proper RTS controls.
The best minion is Penguin, except for when you are playing verminion then it’s trash 😅
Have you considered the widely adopted Kidragora only strategy? Pretty sure it always beats the AI.
I wanted to optimize for quick matches. kidragoras are weak against enemy attacks and very slow to move, so matches can end up being 2 minutes or longer if you get unlucky. it definitely still works though!
Nice video
Ugh, now imma have people doing the LoV tournaments.
