- Dawntrail is finally here, and with it comes a whole slew of new achievements! But what would a Final Fantasy XIV expansion be without some unexpected surprises? It turns out, our levequest grind is going to be even worse than I thought thanks to the newest content additions. Woops!

There are actually three unavoidable things in life. Death. Taxes. Leves.
Edit: Grats on the Paissa Palace!!
You can probably avoid at least two of those
@@Ratoncitow for sure, death and taxes can be avoided leves can't
Don't forget the unavoidable need of expressing rage because small.
All glory to the Cornservant, may the future be grilled and buttery
Praise be!
Praise be!
Praise be!
Praise be!
The second set of scrips (Orange) ARE actually available through Custom Delivery NPCs! But you have to be doing it on a Level 100 job. You trade leveling EXP for endgame scrips.
Isn't the current orange script set super bad though? It's one per job with meh stats...
@@Lulink013 Who cares about the gear, you can buy ludicrously expensive materia with orange scrip.
@@Lulink013 They are all like that, you wait for the book armor.
@@Lulink013 To be honest I haven't looked, I was just correcting the fact that Cider said the Custom Delivery NPCs couldn't reward you with Orange Scrips!
@Lulink013 from what I've been told (based on what happened last expansion), the current set is mainly used to make the HQ version of the normal 100 gear easier to craft, and that is the "best" gear right now because of overmelding until the master craft gear is available
Rest in peace, mad because baby house. you will be missed.
Every time I watch one of these crafting leve videos, I always leave with a new tip to help level my crafters. So thanks for these lol.
I tend to gather and sell in quantities that are required for the average craft. Like 5 dark hemp since that’s the amnt for one roll of fabric. You can tend to up charge a bit and it’s not a huge inventory so you can turn over your inventory slots pretty quickly. I tend to over gather but craft just enough.
They really should have an achievement for completing the large-scale levequests. They already required finishing some of them for the crafters, and with this new increased requirements in Dawntrail they're clearly counting them in the total, so they might as well reward us for doing all of them.
At least nerf them to only 5 allowances each or giga buff the gil reward for it
28:04 we've got our WHAT
Look, it'd be wasteful to throw them away. Gotta use the whole animal, even the parts that make you uncomfortable.
I work as a dancer on a cuise ship, Whenever I was in port after 1-2 weeks I would find a starbucks, Download anything I needed and accept Large scale crafting leves just to burn through the allowences :D Was very handy!
What's your favorite part of Dawntrail so far? No spoilers, obviously.
My tap part of it is yes.
First trial
Without spoilers?
The overworld battle theme, and city theme. It slaps.
the fact i use JP audio and wuk lamat is also mappingway.
Dungeon boss fights and trials are bangers for me. Also the music but at this point that's just cheating.
The first days of a expansion are really the most bizarre when it comes to the marketplace game, if you are creative you can make a lot of money. I personally made 15-20 Million by purely selling NPC accessories for Viper and Pictomancer. I feel a bit dirty now, but I couldn't resist..
Money is better in your pocket if they are willing to pay the lazy tax.
I made a bunch selling special dyes I'd been hoarding for the better part of a year.
@@Tardisntimbits I didn't even notice an uptick in the dye prices on the first few days of the expansion, pure white went up by like 30-40k at most
@@kiiturii it's not always about prices though, because with the new dual dye system there is probably a lot of dye being bought, so you're selling faster.
@@Moehre040 I mean, I'm sure they could've sold those within a year.. lol
These videos are some of the most entertaining and informative there are - a great combination. Thank you!
Ooooooh... He ignored the Temple Leves... Yeah, those'll get'cha. ;)
Gratz on the house! I was lurking in the stream when you went to bid on it so its nice to see that you won!
Cograts on the mansion! May the Paissa Castle look over your achievements.
Wow! Gratz on the mansion! I'm still out here fighting for a cottage, wish me luck
I have to say I am so glad I found your videos I am trying to get a leg up on doing all the achievements, I try my best to do my leave quest everyday.
happy to see your channel and stream evolving and getting the deserved recognition for your great work! Genuinely happy and proud of you! Keep it up!
i think my fav things in dawntrail have been the fight design and the music! the 99 trial music goes especially hard
Patiently waiting for Blue Mage content.
Yay, new video! Thanks for entertaining me as I "learn" new stuff at work❤
The Cornservant comes from a random yellow quest line that begins in tuliyollal and takes you through each zone, one quest per zone, before finally giving you The Cornservant at the end. theres no achievement tied to it, but who cares. CORNSERVANT!
Tangentially related, watching you has brought into sharp focus how much "tremble" is used in this game
thank you for reminding me of the grand company turn ins! thought it was just me and leves/collectible turn ins to the end!
Congratulations on the large house! Mad becuase interior design
I....did not know that Cornservant minion was a thing. I'm not at Solution Nine yet, and the servers are down for maintenance at the time of writing so....I'll get it eventually!
I just got done with the large scale leves in Ishgard on my own achievement grind. It made me feel so good to finally get past it.
Your leve quests have more butter than your baked potatoes do :P
Hey Cider! I just got all my crafty and land jobs up to 100 yesterday. That was on hell of a grind! I'm still 5 large leves per class away, but I got the new single leves done in the process of leveling! Multi-tasking is a beautiful thing. My advice to everyone is to level you miner and botanist first, then do crafters with the gathered materials.
I have been dreading having to do the large leves. My biggest regret since I started playing mid HW was not having already done them/fully kept up with using level allowances prior to the past couple years. Congrats on the biggun!
Haha! My completionist streak benefits me, I've already done most of the large scale leves!
And I've made a small mint on scrip bait, my secret little niche. If stuff keeps selling as it is, I'll have made a couple mil for negative cost because aetheryte tickets and custom delivery rewards
Grats on the Paissa Palace! That is a massive house! The Mad Mansion.
Oh hey, you got the mansion in the same location my FC did! It's a super nice location
Gentlemen... behold...CORN!
Dunno if anyone's mentioned this already in the comments but Fionnuala is pronounced fin-new-la, it's an Irish name :) another 10/10 video guy, love you
You made me try crafting. Literally the best decision I made in FFXIV. So thank you!!!
I was #2 Lottery entrant for a Medium in Shirogane, however #68 also won there and it went to some FC with 7 people lmao. Congrats on your house though!
I too love taking over the new item market on the MB with each expansion! II made a good chunk of gil without doing a dang thing but doing the MSQ and then reselling the Air Wheeler mount from Solution Nine. I sold 2 to streamers a few hours after launch, one of them paid me 50M for it too even though I told them it cost me 7.5M to buy it. They said it was my "tip" because they wanted to put out the first video about it. I sold so many more of them for 15-20M for the first day and then throughout day 2-3 continued to resell them for 10M+ on the market board. To pay my respects to all the gil people made me, I gave 4 of them away on July 4th to the first 4 players who found me and set off a firework for me. I was sitting right next to the aetherite in Mor Dhona and people were flying all over trying to find me.
Gratz on the Large House! You deserve it!
There was a quest in the new expac called “and the land will tremble” and all I could think was your sound effects. XD also, paissa palace? You truly are an evil potato, sir.
This expansion is a blast! Took my time with the msq, but in 3 days I sold 50 mil worth of materia, and almost ready to sell a Rroneek horn, at a hopefully horrobly high price x)
Trust me, I can feel the pain. I had to wait 166 days to get the 1000 levequests for the PS4 trophy An Adventurer's Duty. :(
Also, congrats on getting your own house and getting 3000 FATEs... which is something I have not even broken 1000 on. ;_;
If you want the expensive Bicolor Gem items you'll be doing a shitload of FATEs anyway. There's also FATE requirements for ARR and Heavensward relics, as well as random stuff like the Yo-kai event. And Bozja but I'm not sure if those count.
Point is there's plenty of stuff to grind FATEs for and that makes it feel like less of a waste of time cause you're working towards multiple goals at once.
My leve allowance was maxed out when DT began. I was able to level two crafters with them, and custom turn-ins.
Gratz on the large house!
19:00 so much room for activities!
Great video, Cider!
Progress report. Lalachievements score: 16,870.
New expac, new achievements. For spoiler sensitivity, I'll be culling achievement names here, so have no fear. I picked up 5 of 6 MSQ progress achievements, the Mapping the Realm and Freebird achievements for 5 of 6 new field zones, and the Mapping the Realm achievements for 5 of 8 new dungeons. In the process, I picked up Through the Gate X and Stick Them with the Pointy End X, as well as the role quest achievements for tank, caster, and healer.
Aside from this, I picked up I Am the Alpha I Am the Omega III while doing Khloe book for Picto XP, and got enough poetics from doing roulettes a bit more actively to grab Well-oiled: Amazing Manderville Milpreves, Samurai Blade (I *hate* that they won't just localize these as "katana"), Torquetum, and Axe.
Big congraz on the mansion cider 🎉🎉🎉
As player in EU, I paid my US friend to buy butterfingers to get that mount. And now it is so easy to get. The drenches make nicer memories!
I got my Twitch drops from your stream. I had it going when I went for a run and then played MSQ.
Oh I know the pain of the large leves-currently working through them all just because I figured something like this would happen!
tremble every time you spend gil is a mood
sits here having done every single new leve for Weaver with the HW Large Leves already done
I wish you luck my dude
Enjoy your new mansion. Congrats!!
Just finished the MSQ today, I know a lot of people have been critical of it after Endwalker set the stakes bar so high, but I honestly thought it was perfectly fine, and the ending gives a ton of options for what the devs could have us do going forward that I really like
It's not even about the stakes, dawntrail's stakes are arguably at the same world ending crisis that endwalker was.
The story overall is just filled with weird unexplained details and plot holes/conveniences that don't make a whole lot of sense and it's made worse with how overwhelmingly Wuk Lamat overshadows everything and everyone. Even the brief time you don't spend with her the story manages to make it about her
I enjoyed it but it's definitely down there with stormblood, only difference for me is that I actively skipped some cutscenes in stormblood due to how boring some parts were
@intergalacticspacewizard1966 the expansion was supposed to be about her though, that's quite literally the point, the entire story is how she comes into her own as a ruler and becomes a more complete person, and even when she gets there, the world ending threat is starting on her doorstep, massacres her people and challenges her morals and beliefs, so of course she is going to be front and center in trying to resolve it
@@kurosakikun96 I don't think it matters what the point is, when a large amount of players has such a visceral and negative response to the character when it started out as positive then something is wrong with the story. In my view she is just a symptom of the overall strange and poor writing the expansion has
Grats on the large house!
It always makes me laugh to see the Child Labor quest still sitting at 5/6 on every single video...
I did a handful of large scale leves thankfully, but gosh. It's insane how they manage to make the grind somehow worse, as leves feel like a dying system. No other grinds are that insane of a timesink and are not allowed to put in time to chip away at it more, and the rewards are not that good either outside of maybe 2-3 per expansion!!!! So many things could be done to make it feel like you are getting somewhere, like Large Leves counting for 10 completed leves, GC overlapping with Battle Leves, and address some issues with the pacing of them like the 5 minute ones, and the whole Evaluation one making no sense on what that means. Everything in this game feels reasonable with getting to push for some achievements, but this!!!
glad my paranoid ass did the larges anyway over the last few years (besides gathering) ..thatll save me some time!
As soon as you said that they only added 10 and there were 15 you needed I knew what was coming...
Shout out to the baby gang
Wait! I just noticed you're on the same server I am... I didn't know Diabolos had any CC's! I think I've even seen you running around once or twice
It used to be like, coincidentally THE streamer server. Ponto's main is Diabolos too. Somehow, if theyre not an Aether gamer they probably play on Diabolos :)
@@Nazuiko Really?? I'll be for real, I dont watch a whole lot of FFXIV content, so I had no idea. I was just happy to find one CC on Diabolos xD
The glory of new expansion weekend. My scam was to gather/craft my gc turn-ins and then sell duplicates on Mb at a huge markup, but the exact amount people needed. I made millions off it. As for my favorite thing, there is an absolutely beautiful zone I spent a lot of time gathering in. Made my botanist leveling quite enjoyable.
I showed my husband the Paissa Palace & told him it reminded me of him. He asked if I thought he was going to collect owls.
There he is, the bane of the HOA wherever he goes.
Yeah. When I looked at crafter skills ingame I was shocked af, because I only had heard about full durability restore and not the other. Fucking crafter got giga buffed
Since you are still doing the spiritbonding stuff, you should also be very happy! Spiritbonding for crafter and gatherer now is based on lvl, not ilvl, so a level 100 set is a level 100 set, instead of being like ilvl 696 needing to do 100 three star for decent spiritbonding. So should get more materia and more spiritbonding!
Lmao between moving away and not buying my weaver hide I'm starting to think you are avoiding me 😂
Zlatan looks like he didn't get a mansion.
So jealous on the large plot! I’m on like my 10th attempt.
Best Girl Zhloe, my day is made.
selling the very first stargazing deck on balming for 5 million gil is one of my proudest achievements in the game, honestly
Congrats on the large house.
> Paissa Palace
I am glad that i am not your neighbour
Man I'm glad I finished ALL Heavensward leves and large leves during Endwalker
Now for the biggest challenge in the game: actually decorating a mansion with it's abysmal furnishing limit 😁😱😭.
Mad because jealous. Congrats on the mansion!
You gonna do the Triple Triad achievements anytime soon? :p
The only 200 point mtn dew flavor to be found near me is rather nasty. But I have stupid bird.
Wow, the graphics update was so good that Lakeland looks like Il Mheg now.
Told ya they'd make you need to do the temple leves! I'm ahead on those and have all craft\gathering leves done, but waaaaay behind on GC leves
we butterfinger buyers are the true rightful owners of the ugly chocolate puffball
Might be kinda worth (eventually) just knocking out ALL the large leves and just getting ahead of them dropping this on you again 2 expansions in the future
This reminded me to do my leves oh no
cider admitting that crafting is a ponzi scheme where you make money off the crafters that start after you, and the last guy gets caught holding the goods
Yea prices were crazy, so i did alot of gathering...but still managed to sink alot of my precious gill.
Nice house :P
1:00 I poke ya
>:O
At some point it will be impossible for new players to finish leve quests just from the amount.
I think the best way to fix it for the future is to make it possible to finish leve quests from old expansions even if you have 0 allowances left, but reduce the rewards to a minimum to make it not worth it without using allowances.
Is no one going to comment on the 'Child Labor' sidequest that was on the screen for the entire video...? Hilarious sense of humor.
Its been on the screen for like ... 2-3 years. I even borrowed the idea and put "Stroking the Haft" on my quest log permanently too
@@NazuikoMy SO has a permanently unfinished yellow quest so that they can hold on to the quest item "Cactus Piss" and post it in chat whenever they want.
I am convinced that only crafters and gathers buy from crafters and gathers, and if enough of them quit the game the whole market would crash :D
what would someone who doesnt craft need High Mythrite Nuggets for?
That said, gear upgrades gotta come from somewhere, especially accessories that arent worth investing tomes in and the MSQ doesnt give out.
Im assuming the large leves are all gonna be inevetible for achievements so if I cared about leve achievements Id probably just get them all over with first, also seems eaisier than doing 10 small leves.
I did my part, time for your neighbors to see 2k+ paissa...paissas? Whatever the plural is on that. Sticking with paissa feels right so I'm going with that.
They really ought to reset player leves to 100/100 upon new expansion releases to shave off a little of that mess. Maybe on a couple major patches per expansion too.
3 minutes in and I'm like Yoshi.....we gotta have a fn talk bro. Saki?
Palace of the Leves
Definitely agreed on this expansion being great for scamming people, I've been making a ton of cash for selling GC fish because I was the only one selling normal numbers instead of trying to sell full stacks like a fool
Also, thanks for the entertaining streams, definitely one of the better ways to get a mount
Well since you acknowledged that Zhloe is in fact best girl I guess I can see about swinging by your stream one of these days soon.
I always level a healer. I like options. I’ve decided to level SCH this time. I’m like. I watch Cider Spider. I’ll get better from it. Naw. I’m still a shit SCH. TY tho lol at least I’m challenged.
Fionnuala is pronounced (roughly) "fyun-ool-uh"
Its an irish name, which is odd cuz the ishgardians usually go pseudo-french, but hey
ha 😂 suddenly glad i decided to do all the large leves in EW
