There have been countless items added to the game over the years, including some that were available via limited-time events that are not currently scheduled to return or otherwise only featured limited chances to acquire them. Therefore, we have decided to introduce this special opportunity on a trial basis to either make these items available again or provide an easier, limited-time method to obtain them.
The eligible items this time are the
Archduke's Sword,
Archduke's Shield, and the
??? statue. The
Archduke's Sword is a powerful magical sword ideal for both beginners and veterans alike, while the
Archduke's Shield includes the Refresh effect.
The
??? statue is a furnishing modeled after the notorious monster that appears in the upcoming “More Strange Happenings in Vana'diel” event. Placing it in your Mog House provides you with a Moghancement effect, so it's definitely worth playing through the event to obtain the item.
