Patch 5.21 Notes | FINAL FANTASY XIV, The Lodestone (2024)

The notes for Patch 5.21 are now available and include details on the updates to the Ishgardian Restoration, new emotes and hairstyles, and the brand-new parasols.

* Additional features will be implemented in future updates:
Save the Queen: Blades of Gunnhildr and Skysteel tools are scheduled to be released in Patch 5.25.

* Updated Thursday, March 25, 2021 at 8:00p.m. (PDT)

Patch 5.21 contains content that can only be accessed by registering the expansion packs for FINAL FANTASY XIV to your service account. To distinguish between adjustments that are and are not affected by the registration of these expansions, the following notations will be used throughout the patch notes:

These quests are unlocked once all reconstruction works included in Patch 5.21 have been completed.

These sidequests are unlocked once the Patch 5.21 Ishgardian Restoration story quests have been completed.

The Echo will take effect upon entering Eden's Gate raids, increasing players' maximum HP, damage dealt, and healing potency by 10%.
* Unlike other instances, the strength of the Echo will not increase in the event all party members are incapacitated.
* Updated Thursday, March 25, 2021 at 8:00p.m. (PDT)

With work in the Mendicant's Court having reached its conclusion, the skybuilders now seek to restore other areas of Ishgard.

After completing the side story quest "Towards the Firmament," speak with Augebert in the Firmament (X:11.4 Y:14.1) while using any class or job of level 60 or above to experience the latest chapter of the Ishgardian Restoration.
* Players who have already participated in the Ishgardian Restoration will also need to speak to this NPC to begin the new chapter.

To coincide with the updates to the Ishgardian Restoration, new materials can now be crafted and submitted.
* The Ishgardian Restoration materials from the previous chapter may still be submitted, but the reward amounts have been reduced.

Crafters submitting items to the Ishgardian Restoration can now participate in the Kupo of Fortune.
* The corresponding class must be level 20 or above.

The Kupo of Fortune is a game of chance that can be played by delivering certain items to Potkin in the Firmament (X:12.2 Y:14.6) and collecting stamps on a voucher.
Once you have collected five stamps, you may exchange the voucher for a Kupo of Fortune card. You may carry up to ten Kupo of Fortune cards. The items that offer stamps vary according to the player's crafter class level.

To play, hand a Kupo of Fortune card to Lizbeth (X:12.2 Y:14.6) in the Firmament.

Upon each card, there are four treasure chests depicted by hexagons─one on the left and three on the right. You may choose one chest to scratch open.

The lone chest on the left offers second to fourth prize, while the three chests on the right offer first to fifth, with the fifth being a consolation prize. The prizes available change each time, and we recommend that you review the prize list before playing.

Gatherers may now travel to the Diadem to collect items for use in Ishgardian Restoration crafter recipes.

To enter the Diadem, speak with Aurvael in the Firmament (X:10.8 Y:14.0).
* Updated 3/11/2020 1:00 a.m. (PST)

Adjustments are made to experience point gain for each item gathered. To a certain degree, even low-level items will grant experience points appropriate to the player's current level.

Some items can only be gathered under certain weather conditions. Should such conditions occur, it is the ideal time to seek out these rare items.

During forays to the Diadem, you will gain access to the duty action Aetheromatic Auger. In order to perform the action, you must first increase the auger's store of compressed aether by gathering as a miner or botanist. When you have enough compressed aether, you may expend it to unleash a powerful attack against an enemy. Enemies defeated using the auger are known to yield a wealth of resources.

Flotpassant in the Firmament (X:10.8 Y:14.0) will any inspect items gathered in the Diadem.

Upon inspection, skybuilders' scrips are awarded according to the number of items and their type. Inspected items can also be used in Ishgardian Restoration crafting recipes or sold on the market.

By selecting this subcommand for Ishgardian Restoration recipes, you can see how many inspected and uninspected materials you have in your possession.

Accumulated scores are tallied separately for each Disciple of the Hand and Land class and count towards various achievements.

For a given period, each player's skyward points are tallied and listed on the Lodestone. The skyward points earned during the ranking period are known as the seasonal score. Players finishing in high ranks will be eligible for rewards and achievements.

The ranking period lasts from the release of Patch 5.21 until March 19, 2020, at 11:00 p.m. (PDT). Seasonal scores are tallied for each class, with rankings divided by World and class.
* Seasonal scores can only be accumulated on a player's Home World.

To view rankings in game, speak with Ludovraint in the Firmament (X:10.6 Y:14.6).

While these recipes are harder to craft, they are worth more points when submitted to the Ishgardian Restoration.

Expert recipes are indicated with an icon in the crafting log.

When crafting expert recipes, the condition will not change to "excellent" or "poor." However, in addition to "normal" and "good," the following new conditions may occur:

For this information to display, you must first complete the sidequest "Towards the Firmament."

The gathering spots added in Patch 5.11 for Ishgardian Restoration items have been removed.

By using a parasol in your inventory, an action will be added to the Extras section of the Actions & Traits menu that allows your character to hold the parasol.

Other various issues have also been addressed.

Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Tea Leaves
Ingredient
For Ishgardians, discussing the virtues of various blends of tea is almost as much of a pastime as actually drinking the stuff. This fine selection of choice leaves could be placed in the center of a table to serve to facilitate stimulating conversation, while the skybuilders continue to labor away in the bitter cold outside.

Approved Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Wheat
Ingredient
What about this wheat makes it artisanal? Those in the know claim it is massaged daily and fed beer, which is the reason for the delicious marbled texture. Or perhaps they were talking about some sort of cow?
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Umbral Earthcap
Ingredient
Charged with aether drawn from the earth. In actual fact, most mushrooms possess some earth-aspected aether, but this particular species is especially greedy.

Can only be gathered during an umbral duststorm.

Grade 2 Skybuilders' Cloudskipper
Seafood
True to its name, this rare species spends its entire life in the firmament (the actual firmament, not the place in Ishgard) where it skips from cloud to cloud. Sadly, its ability to remain airborne relies on the presence of said clouds, without which it falls inelegantly to the ground below.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Skybuilders' Meditators
Seafood
Like all meditators, this particular variety is capable of surviving out of water. The reason for its superior grading appears to be its ability to get back into water afterwards, which many of its brethren sadly lack.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Skybuilders' Coeurlfish
Seafood
Coeurlfish fall into the category of species that anglers would rather not have thrashing at the end of their line, and many would rather lose their lure than face its vicious fangs. Only those with nerves of steel would attempt to reel in one of these aquatic abominations, though they are often made to regret it.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Skybuilders' Garpike
Seafood
The skybuilders' primary reason for requesting this especially savage variety of garpike is to limit the havoc it wreaks in whatever body of water it inhabits. There is nothing less welcoming to a school of docile freshwater dwellers looking for a new home than a snapping maw of razor-sharp teeth heading in their general direction.

Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Coeurlfish

Coeurlfish fall into the category of species that anglers would rather not have thrashing at the end of their lines, and many would rather lose their lures entirely than face its vicious fangs. Only those with nerves of steel would attempt to reel in one of these aquatic abominations─and even they are often made to regret it.

Grade 2 Skybuilders' Pirarucu
Seafood
The pirarucu's habit of swallowing the lure whole means that most anglers wait until the beast is well and truly dead before they attempt to retrieve it. There is always the option of leaving it in the fish's belly─but that would be a nasty surprise for the poor soul who has to gut it.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Skybuilders' Brown Bolo
Seafood
While this bizarre creature is known to entangle its prey in a manner similar to its namesake, the grade 2 variety can be used as an actual bolo when thrown. Just make sure the thing is dead first or you may find yourself being the one entangled.

Grade 2 Skybuilders' Bitterling
Seafood
Most creatures tend not to enjoy being pulled to their death via a hook to the mouth, but this poor specimen looks especially miserable when caught.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Skybuilders' Caiman
Seafood
Though the skybuilders are often willing to take in scalekin captured alive, they have specifically requested that any caiman presented be certifiably dead before being brought to the Firmament. Given its resemblance to a wingless dragon, the less sensible members of the populace may fear a second Dragonsong War is upon them.

Grade 2 Skybuilders' Cloud Cutter
Seafood
Often caught accidentally by anglers in mid-cast, due to its habit of flying several fulms above the waterline.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Skybuilders' Vampiric Tapestry
Seafood
Another species that largely fails to live up to its namesake, especially the "vampiric" part. As for "tapestry," the only similarity appears to be the shared ability to stay stuck to a wall through the use of a series of well-placed pins.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Skybuilders' Tupuxuara
Seafood
The word "fishing" usually implies that some sort of aquatic, or at the very least, amphibious creature is the intended prey, though the paraphernalia used by anglers is equally effective for snagging flying scalekin. Whether one would actually want to or not is a separate matter entirely.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Skybuilders' Blind Manta
Seafood
As this species of manta uses echolocation to find its way around, it can be heard making a series of high-pitched squeals when hoisted out of the water. Many fishers end up feeling sorrow for the poor beast and returning it whence it came, although the more cynically minded suspect it of intentionally wielding a pity-based form of self-defense.

Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Rhomaleosaurus
Seafood
An aquatic scalekin so enormous that one cannot help but wonder how a mere fishing rod could bear its weight.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Gobbie Mask
Seafood
According to some sources, several attempts have been made by goblins to convert the carcasses of these cephalopods into masks. Unfortunately, the retch-inducing stench is too much for most to bear, especially when in such close proximity to the face.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Pterodactyl
Seafood
One must take great care when attempting to catch one of these winged scalekin, as they may find themselves lifted from the ground. In such cases, it is normally best to let go of the rod, although the more absent-minded may find themselves clinging on for dear life for reasons that even they cannot comprehend.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Skyfish
Seafood
Sought by collectors as a rare curio rather than for its use in Ishgardian cuisine. Often used to decorate trees during the Starlight Celebration, although the smell does get to be quite noticeable after a few days.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Cometfish
Seafood
Named not for the speed with which it cuts through the water, but for the fact that, much like its namesake, having one fall on your head can be rather painful.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Anomalocaris
Seafood
This airborne cephalopod often dives from above to savage unsuspecting anglers, as it is presumably a follower of the "get your retaliation in first" style of self-defense. However, a well-timed sidestep and a well-placed fishing net can soon turn the tables.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Rhamphorhynchus
Seafood
It is strongly advised not to attempt to spear this particular species, as more often than not, it ends up doing most of the spearing.

※Not included in the fish guide.

Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Dragon's Soul
Seafood
While most people are aware by now that this is not the soul of a dragon trapped in the rather pathetic and quite small body of a wavekin, it is nevertheless allowed to keep its incredibly impressive name.

Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Ore
Stone
Something of a mixed bag of metallic elements, but as everyone knows, smithies love a good surprise. Just not when they're swinging a hammer dangerously close to their fingers.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Copper Sand
Stone
A special place in one of the seven hells exists for those who attempt to fob off the skybuilders by mixing in regular sand with the copper, or so the skybuilders would have one believe.

Zinc is said to prevent a number of common ailments. However, it must be noted that attempting to ingest it in its current state may actually cause problems such as broken teeth and stomachache, usually in that order.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Iron Sand
Stone
In the event that one somehow accidentally mixes this with normal sand, the two can be separated by waving a magnet nearby. This knowledge may─or more likely, may not─save your life one day.

Stone
A lot less blue than one might expect, although it tastes about right.

Stone
The bright hue of this valuable substance does make it stand out from the surrounding rocks and so forth, but only under the condition that one is able to find the damnable stuff in the first place.

"Mica" would make rather a nice name for a person, if it were not already taken by this rather unremarkable rock.

Due to the fact it is almost identical in appearance to mythril ore, it is sometimes known as "fool's mythril." Conversely, actual mythril is often referred to as "fool's mythrite."

If you think this rock is uninteresting, you should see the grade 1 skybuilders' rock, which is so plain that it can blend into any background by virtue of its sheer dullness.

Stone
Has the potential to be made into something very scary indeed, like spiked pauldrons or an enormous battleaxe. In all likelihood, however, it will probably become a slightly extravagant kettle or decorative letter opener.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Lutinite
Stone
Said to be blessed by cloud spirits, which may or may not be a good thing. Still, "blessed" is infinitely preferable to "cursed."
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Basalt
Stone
Basalt actually has very little in common with salt, despite its name being approximately two-thirds the same.

Stone
One of the few substances known to be both edible and highly explosive. While some spicy ingredients are said to be capable of blowing one's head off, in this case, it is no exaggeration.
Approved Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Jade
Stone
In the Brume, to be "jaded" means to have a large piece of jade thrown at the back of one's head. Thankfully, the prohibitive pricing of this precious substance means that such incidents are rare.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Umbral Flarestone
Stone
Red-hot to the touch, which makes it a bastard to carry.

Can only be gathered during an umbral flare.

Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Umbral Levinshard
Stone
If you thought catching lightning in a bottle was difficult, catching it in a crystal fragment is even trickier. At least a bottle comes with a handy cap to keep in said lightning when caught, whereas crystal relies on nothing more than the bolt's willing cooperation.

Can only be gathered during umbral levin.

The sap slowly leaking from the logs tends to attract ants, which even the skybuilders have yet to find a use for. This may come as a surprise considering the plethora of bizarre items they request, and it may only be a matter of time until some bright spark invents ant sandwiches.

The tiny acorn that grew into this mighty oak had its life cut tragically short by the cruel axe of a woodsman (or possibly woodslady). If there is any justice in the world, it will be born anew as a nice dresser or an attractive hat stand.

As the skybuilders prefer to use wooden planks of standardized dimensions, this log is already cut to be exactly the length they require, to minimize the carpenters' workload. One can only hope they appreciate the extra effort by throwing a few more scrips your way.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Umbral Galewood Log

Carried on raging winds, charged with potent aether. Probably the most powerful log in existence.

Cloth
In some parts of Eorzea, straw is used to weave hats with wide peaks to keep the sun from the wearer's eyes. Fortunately─or perhaps unfortunately─for Ishgardians, there is seldom enough sunlight to warrant such headwear, and the vicious winds would prevent the owner from remaining behatted for more than a few scant moments.

While even Ishgard's finest ornithologist would be hard-pressed to identify the bird from which this came, one thing is certain: there are more where this came from, unless said bird only ever possessed a single feather.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Vine
Cloth
Careless owners of high-walled castles in faerie tales often allow these to grow over said walls, thereby allowing dashing heroes to infiltrate the premises to steal jewels, damsels in distress, scones from the pantry, and so forth.

Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Cotton Boll
Cloth
One of the skybuilder's children asked, "Is this what sheep are made from?" The answer was a resounding, "I'm not sure. Possibly."

Approved Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Cotton Boll
Cloth
To the untrained eye, this may appear to be no different from any other cotton boll. Those with trained eyes, however, will notice that it is pink, not the usual white.

Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Maple Sap
Reagent
Any insect foolhardy enough to attempt sampling its delight will invariably find itself trapped within this glutinous substance, preserved for future generations to study and possibly experiment on. Still, there are worse ways to go than being enveloped in one's favorite sweet treat.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Rock Salt
Reagent
There are few dishes that cannot be improved with a sprinkling of salt. Strangely, this even includes a number of desserts, which flies in the face of all common logic.

Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Mistletoe
Reagent
Any ancient myths describing darts made from a sprig of mistletoe neglect to mention the fact that when thrown, it displays the airborne grace of a drunken, one-winged chicken.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Beehive
Reagent
A bee colony will often respond to the presence of intruders by swarming their intended target and using their own body heat to cook it alive. The skybuilders have discovered that this can be utilized to keep their hands warm, although the fact that said bees are still very much capable of stinging does present a minor flaw in this otherwise brilliant idea.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Asphaltum
Reagent
Plans to use this sticky, black substance to cover the streets of Ishgard were vehemently opposed, as it would ruin the uniformly grey aesthetic, which on most days, includes the sky itself.

Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Toad
Reagent
One skybuilder was heard to claim that to assign grades to living creatures is degrading. The response was, "No, taking the grade away from it would be called degrading."
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Barbgrass
Reagent
According to local legend, a night raid on a Temple Knights encampment was foiled when the assailants wandered into a patch of barbgrass. Nothing gives the game away quite like pained squeals of, "Oh, my poor bottom!"
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Spring Water
Reagent
Despite the potentially misleading name, it can also be collected in summer and autumn. Winter, however, is generally out of the question, for obvious reasons.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Alumen
Reagent
Were the skybuilders less exacting in their demands, the standard alumen found in market stalls across Eorzea would be more than sufficient. Many volunteers suspect that such tasks are set merely to test their patience.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Silex
Reagent
The name makes it sound far more sinister than it actually is.

Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Resin
Reagent
Resin this pure, this beautiful is far too good for the skybuilders. Perhaps you should keep it all to yourself. They need never know.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Adder
Reagent
Venomous, but not fatally so. Perfect for practical jokes and party tricks.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Crystal-clear Rock Salt
Reagent
With a name that long, one might be forgiven for expecting it to be some sort of miraculous super-salt, capable of turning even the blandest dish into a festival of flavor. Sadly, this is not the case, although it is nonetheless rather good as far as salt goes.
Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Cloud Drop Water
Reagent
Most people realize "cloud drop" is just a fancy way to say "rain." Not many customers would be willing to pay for mere rainwater, but cloud drop water, on the other hand...

Approved Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Hardened Sap
Reagent
Although the practical applications of a piece of hardened sap are somewhat unclear, it is at least considerably less sticky than unhardened sap, which helps to keep it free of impurities such as loose hairs, bits of pocket fluff, and so on.
Approved Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Dawn Lizard
Reagent
Those wondering what separates this from a non-artisanal dawn lizard need only observe the way it devours its prey. For a carnivorous, slavering scalekin, it has the most impeccable table manners, or more precisely, "blood-spattered patch of ground manners."
Approved Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Rock Salt
Reagent
It seems there are almost as many varieties of rock salt as there are varieties of rock, if the skybuilders' somewhat arbitrary system of assigning names is to be believed.
Approved Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Spring Water
Reagent
Rather than simply being free of impurities, this water actually possesses the ability to preemptively destroy any impurities that dare to come near it. As such, only those pure of heart can drink of it without being killed instantly, or so it is rumored.

Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Pigment
Dye
While some of the skybuilders were in favor of naming this substance "purple stuff," the need to follow a more sensible naming convention eventually prevailed.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Pigment

Grade 2 Skybuilders' Plywood
Miscellany
While this could be combined with a few bricks to create a makeshift bench, that may fall somewhat short of the skybuilders' rather more lofty aspirations.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Alloy
Miscellany
Even in its current state, it would make a functional, if not especially elegant, murder weapon.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Steel Plate
Miscellany
To some, it may seem a shame to ruin such a beautifully square piece of metal by battering it with a hammer.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Ingot
Miscellany
These would make a suitable substitute for house bricks were it not for their natural propensity to conduct cold, which is less than ideal in the freezing climes of Ishgard.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Leather
Miscellany
Considered to be particularly valuable, especially by the creature to which it originally belonged.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Rope
Miscellany
Perfectly suited to pulling heavy objects. Less well suited to pushing them.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Ink
Miscellany
While some may question the skybuilders' need for a specific type of ink, it is believed that this particular variety is more resistant to the cold. After all, frozen ink does not lend itself well to fine penmanship, or any sort of penmanship, for that matter.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Hemp Milk
Miscellany
While the layman may question exactly how one goes about milking a plant, the process is much the same as milking anything else: you give it a damned good squeeze and hope for the best.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Crate
Miscellany
Despite much of the work in the Firmament involving taking supplies out of boxes, the need occasionally arises to put them into boxes instead. Suggestions that the skybuilders simply reuse the boxes they already have were immediately shot down, presumably by someone who stands to profit from the production of new containers.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Nails
Miscellany
Never was the description "tough as nails" more apt, because they are, in fact, nails.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Rivets
Miscellany
Despite their name, discussions on these commonplace metal studs tend to be anything but riveting.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Rings
Miscellany
Attempting to impress a potential spouse by presenting one of these mass-produced metallic circles will generally end in failure, and perhaps even a slap in the face for good measure.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Leather Straps
Miscellany
Some may wonder whether this leather was in fact more useful before it was cut into long strips. It could have been used to make a nice coat, for example.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Cloth
Miscellany
As the popular Coerthan adage attests, "One can never have too much cloth."
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Plant Oil
Miscellany
Not only is it used by chefs, but also masseuses. Unfortunately, there is not much call for such work in Ishgard, as the general consensus is that clothes are best kept on at all times unless absolutely necessary.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Bread
Miscellany
While it is true that man cannot live on bread alone, a little bit here and there certainly does not go amiss.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Grindstone
Miscellany
Clearly, the expression "nose to the grindstone" was not meant to be taken literally, though some have chosen to find this out the hard way.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Hammer
Miscellany
Tenderizing pork with this craftsman's tool does not, as one might be forgiven for thinking given the name, turn it into ham.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Still
Miscellany
This bizarre contraption is coveted by alchemists and culinarians alike. When asked for what purpose, the response is generally along the lines of, "Mumble, mumble, steam, mumble, mumble."
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Embroidery Frame
Miscellany
A firm favorite among ladies of leisure, oft held mid-stitch as they gaze wistfully from the window of their opulent bedchamber, high in their metaphorical─and in some cases, actual─ivory tower.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Rug
Miscellany
Some things are best swept under one of these.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Broom
Miscellany
Those expecting this perfectly ordinary broom to start speaking backwards or sweeping floors of its own accord will be disappointed to find it does neither, unless a passing witch is in the mood for a couple of incantations.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Dye
Miscellany
Those thinking about using this colorful dye for their own purposes should put such thoughts aside, as it is strictly for skybuilder use only. After all, one can hardly expect them to go about their work deprived of the ability to turn something purple at a moment's notice.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Tea
Miscellany
Skybuilders have garnered a reputation for punctuating their work with frequent tea breaks. The number of cups drunk by a laborer over the course of a single day can easily reach double digits.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Stepladder
Miscellany
Unlike most other items requested by the skybuilders, this one actually seems to serve some practical purpose. It can even be carried on one shoulder, allowing the bearer to pivot quickly, which leads to all sorts of hilarity as their colleagues attempt, often in vain, to avoid having their skull cracked.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Crosscut Saw
Miscellany
The sound it makes as it cleaves through timber is akin to that of a person snoring. One particular linguist even went so far as to investigate a possible connection between the words "sawing" and "snoring," and to no one's surprise but her own, discovered that nothing of the sort exists.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Mesail
Miscellany
Perfect for protecting one's face from the accusing glares of innocent bystanders during daylight robberies and so forth, although the skybuilders have a far more pedestrian use in mind.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Stone
Miscellany
A strong contender for the heaviest item requested by the skybuilders. How the volunteers are expected to transport these without an exceedingly sturdy cart is anyone's guess.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Longboots
Miscellany
As the name implies, these boots are what some might consider long, although longer still are the grade 2 skybuilders' longlongboots.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Gloves
Miscellany
Keepers of hounds with the tendency to bite the hand that feeds will be delighted to receive a pair of these fine gloves. The smooth lining allows the wearer to slip out easily, leaving said dog with a mouthful of tough leather, which it will soon learn makes a poor substitute for proper food.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Soap
Miscellany
When combined with an empty stocking, can be used as a makeshift weapon. In Ishgard, this appears to be the most common use, since many residents have discovered that the need to wash is largely mitigated by the wearing of multiple layers of thick clothing, which does little to prevent bodily odor, but does cause it to take longer to seep through and reach the nostrils of those in the immediate vicinity.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' All-purpose Infusion
Miscellany
There may be uncertainty surrounding its exact effects, although one thing is clear: it definitely tastes as if it does one good. That is to say, revolting.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Bed
Miscellany
As it stands only a few ilms off of the floor, any things that go bump in the night will have trouble squeezing under this particular bed.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Oven
Miscellany
Complete with raging fire and billowing smoke, which, while impressive, does make it rather troublesome to transport.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Lamppost
Miscellany
Those with high ceilings in their chambers may wish to employ this as a rather extravagant bedside reading light.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Brazier
Miscellany
Any meat fried on this outdoor brazier produces smoke with the uncanny ability to find its way into the eyes of those foolish enough to wander too near.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Overalls
Miscellany
Designed to be worn on top of other, nicer clothes. Ideal for those who like to muck out their chocobo stables immediately before going for afternoon tea with an overbearing but wealthy aunt.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Gazebo
Miscellany
Purpose-built for picnics in the great outdoors, protecting those beneath from any untimely precipitation. Unfortunately, the snow in most parts of Coerthas tends to fall in a rather sideways fashion, thus rendering this gazebo entirely pointless.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Alchemic
Miscellany
The joy gained from sampling its fragrance─reminiscent of summer meadows─normally only lasts until the caustic vapors burn the skin from the inside of one's nostrils.
Grade 2 Skybuilders' Stew
Miscellany
The term "potluck" applies perfectly to this particular dish, as it is traditionally assembled from whatever the chef can dig up from an often poorly lit pantry. The fact that rats tend to squeak and wriggle a fair bit when picked up is probably all that prevents them from being added to the mix. The dead ones, on the other hand...
Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Wardrobe
Miscellany
If, for any reason, one has the need to hide inside, such as the unexpected return of one of the residents and so on, the air holes provided should prevent untimely suffocation. Not that there is such a thing as "timely suffocation."
Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Chandelier
Miscellany
Most of the diamonds are actually imitations, but thankfully, chandeliers are usually positioned high enough that no one will notice.
Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Fireplace
Miscellany
The ideal place to put a fire, hence the clever name. Well, the last part, that is.
Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Bathtub
Miscellany
In mankind's ongoing quest to keep "water" and "not water" ever separate, few inventions have done more to further the cause than the humble bathtub.
Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Overcoat
Miscellany
If dapperness could be captured, refined, and made into a wearable material, that is what this fine garment would be made from. Until then, cloth and leather will have to suffice.
Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Wallpaper
Miscellany
Generally less messy than covering walls with paint, although its natural tendency to tear and wrinkle with the slightest provocation is enough to make a saint swear.
Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Remedies
Miscellany
It is assumed that each of these glass phials contains something useful, as none of them are labeled. Identification by taste is probably best left to a professional or someone who is not opposed to being lightly poisoned.
Grade 2 Artisanal Skybuilders' Quiche
Miscellany
In cases such as these, "artisanal" actually means "so complex that even the chef doesn't remember what went into it," hence the impossibility of replicating the recipe.
Grade 2 Expert Skybuilders' Practice Materials
Miscellany
Assorted low-cost materials suited for trying one's hand at expert recipes of the sort used in the Ishgardian restoration.
Coffer o' Kupos
Miscellany
This nonsensically named coffer contains a full set of moogle-approved kupo attire.

Cannot be opened in instanced areas such as dungeons, PvP areas, or raids.
