FFXIV: The Rising 2024, how to get the Brushed-up Krile Minion

The Rising 2024 has come to Final Fantasy XIV, and Limsa Lominsa is the host city for this year’s celebration of those we’ve lost, and the future we’ve yet to experience.

The reward for completing this year’s event quests is the Brushed-up Krile minion, along with some fond memories and another encounter with the most familiar face to any Final Fantasy XIV player. 

Where to begin Rising to the Call, FFXIV’s Rising 2024 quest

This is the first of two event quests to complete for the Brushed-up Krile minion, and you begin by talking to the Wandering Minstrel in Limsa Lominsa Upper Decks (X:11.3, Y:13.7). 

He’ll send you off to talk to a Yellowjacket called Ayoyo, who has been put in charge of this year’s firework display in remembrance of those lost on the Carteneau Flats. You’ll find her in the Coral Tower (X:11.3, Y:6.1). Remember to take the stairs to your right as soon as you enter the building and go downstairs. 

Then, you’ll need to speak with Ayoyo again at the Aetheryte Plaza (X:9.2, Y:10.9), before talking to four NPCs in Hawker’s Alley:

• Swozblaet (X:8.4, Y:11.5)
• Middle-aged Mariner (X:7.4, Y:11.9)
• S’dhodjbi (X:6.3, Y:12.0)
• Misty-eyed Skygazer (X:7.1, Y:12.6)

Once you’ve spoken to all of them, head towards the location where Ocean Fishing sets sail and wait at the destination (X:3.5, Y:11.9). A cutscene will play, then you’ll need to head back to the Aftcastle to talk to the Wandering Minstrel again to complete this first quest. 

How to complete We Who Are About to Set Sail Salute You

Speak to Ayoyo to start the next quest, then head back to the Coral Tower and talk to the Wandering Minstrel outside (X:11.2, Y:7.1). After the cutscene, talk to Ayoyo again before heading off to the Anchor Yard (X:7.7, Y: 14.9)  to parley with the pirates.

All that’s left to do is talk to Ayoyo, then the Wandering Minstrel. They’re both very close by in the Anchor Yard, and then you’ll enter into the final cutscene of this year’s event to get your one-on-one encounter with Yoshi P and your Brushed-up Krile minion. 

Once you’ve finished this quest, make sure to interact with the destination marked “The Anchor Yard” to get some encounters with familiar faces from the past.

How to get other The Rising 2024 items

If you want to pick yourself up a Rising Table Lamp, as seen all over Limsa Lominsa as part of the celebrations, you can do this by talking to the Rising Vendor in Limsa Lominsa Upper Decks (X:11.8, Y:13.7). The light piece will cost you 2,000 Gil.
