Empyrean weapons: Magian trials and the Delivery Crate

guide · Server guide

All fourteen Empyrean weapons can be upgraded from 80 to Afterglow through Trials of the Magians in Ru'Lude Gardens.

Where: the Magian Moogle (orange, weapons) in Ru'Lude Gardens starts each trial. The Delivery Crate next to it takes the items.

How to deliver items: trade the inscribed weapon together with the items to the Delivery Crate (up to 7 stacks plus the weapon per trade). The crate tells you if something is wrong: no inscribed weapon, wrong item, trial already complete, or a full trial log. When the count reaches the total, show the weapon to the Magian Moogle for the next stage.
