The collaboration event between Final Fantasy XIV and XVI has been the talk of the town ever since its announcement. Now, we finally have our hands on it. Let’s take a look at how you can overpower Ifrit and collect some pretty cool rewards, including Torgal’s Whistle Mount and Pup Minion.
A Land of Fire Quest Walkthrough
There are 3 quests as part of the event, but before you can start any of them, you need to be at least level 50 and have completed the Ultimate Weapon quest. If, for some reason, you don’t meet these requirements yet, you can head on over to the FFXIV Shop and buy levels and story skips. It’s not the most honorable way, but hey, it works!
Once you have these in the bag, you’re ready to make your way to the Steps of Nahl in Ul’dah (X:8.8, Y:9.8) and start the first quest: A Land of Fire.
Once you’re there, the Neophyte Adventurer will ask you where a burning land may be, to which you must give the Burning Wall as your answer. You guessed it; that’s precisely where you’ll be going next! You’ll once again meet your fellow adventurer at X:28.3, Y:24.5. Talk to him, and then use your spyglass to zoom in and select a strange unconscious figure nearby. This will trigger a cutscene, after which you can talk to Clive to conclude this first quest.
Pain to Recall Quest Walkthrough
In this next quest, you’ll have to help Clive remember what he has forgotten. After interacting with Clive, you must accompany him to Gridania and visit four different locations to refresh his memory. These are as follows: Carline Canopy, Chocobokeep, Aetheryte Plaza, and The Adders Nest.
Once that is done, you can interact with the Serpent Scout at X:8.2 and Y:10.5 who will then guide you to the Lotus Stand. Finally, speak to Clive to mark the completion of the quest.
The Path Infernal Quest Walkthrough
At long last, we have reached the third and final quest. In order to get started, interact with Clive first at X:8.3, Y:10.5, and then at Apkallu Falls (X:10.6, Y:6.0). It’s now time to face Ifrit, so get your game face on!
The good news is that we get access to three dope abilities. The first of these are the Rising Flames, which allow you to deal significant damage to the enemy. Then we have the Dodge, which grants you the ability to evade otherwise unavoidable attacks. Get the Dodge just right, and you’ll be able to launch the Precision Strike as an instant counterattack.
Keep in mind, though, that some attacks can’t be mitigated by Dodge, so pay attention to the timer that appears next to the Dodgeable attacks!
Once the dust has settled, make your way back to the Burning Wall after making a pit stop at Camp Drybone. Here you should first follow Torgol, then interact with Clive, send him back to his own world, and finally talk to the Wandering Minstrel at (X:30.6, Y:27.0) to mark the end of the quest.
What Awards Will You Get From The Path Infernal?
You can look forward to tons of rewards from completing The Path Infernal. The battle itself will award you with the following:
Metian Attire Coffer: Includes the Metian Vest, Mettian Gauntlets, Metian Chausses, and Metian Sollorets
- Torgal Whistle Mount: Grants the ability to summon a Torgal lookalike and mount it.
- Torgal Pup Minion: A Wolf Pup Minion
- Found the Flame achievement.
In addition to the above, you can acquire more game items including the exclusive Orchestrion Rolls for 20,000 MGP each. Just head on over to the Gold Saucer and speak with the Prize Claim Attendant. The rewards are as follows:
- Tonitrua ex Machina
- Idylls of the Empire
- Forevermore: The Grand Duchy of Rosaria
- Before the Storm: Caer Norvent
- The State of the Realm
- Who I really am
- Away (Refrain)
- To Sail Forbidden Seas
- Find the flame
- The Land of Eikons
If you’re feeling rich, head on over to the Triple Triad Trader to get the Clive Rosfield Card for 200,000 MGP. Here’s a good time to point out that you can’t purchase MGP with FF14 Gil.
Conclusion
The release of The Path Infernal was music to the ears of much of the Final Fantasy community. Hopefully, you’ll be able to breeze through without a problem now. Just remember that the event is only online until May 8 at 7:59 a.m. PDT!
