The latest major patch update for Final Fantasy XIV will release later this month and continue major Shadowbringers storylines. However, with Heavensward becoming free players may be jump-starting their careers by trying out all of the combat jobs or upgrading their weaponry. Others might be leveling their non-combat jobs to make some extra gil.

The level 60 Mor Dhona quest Go West, Craftsman will lead players to Geimlona in Idyllshire. She will introduce clients seeking Custom Deliveries. This involves crafting or gathering items while under the Collectable action acquired from the level 50 quest Inscrutable Tastes at Ishgard’s Foundation X: 10, Y: 10.5.

Mechanics of Custom Deliveries in Final Fantasy XIV

There is a weekly limit of how many total Custom Deliveries can be filled: currently 6 per person and 12 among all of them. Characters will request one crafted item shared among all Disciples of the Hand, an item shared by Miners and Botanists, and one specific to Fishers. Once delivering the maximum amount, their satisfaction level will raise and the NPC will switch to the next set. After finishing all four static sets, the client will have a random set of requests available every week which can include a new fifth tier item. They will also allow players to Glamour their equipment, restricted to non-combat armor.

Each NPC will have certain collectability thresholds: the minimum is needed for them to even accept an item, while no further bonus rewards will be given for surpassing the maximum. The collectability stat is governed by Control for Disciples of the Hands and Perception for Disciples of the Land classes. This means that players should be equipped with their highest level gear with strong stat values.

Any acquired Yellow Scrips can be used to directly purchase level 70 tools and armor from Scrip Exchangers in major cities, Mor Dhona, Idyllshire, Rhalgr’s Reach, or Sanana in Ruby Sea. Yellow Scrips can also be downgraded to Blue Scrip Tokens to buy level 60 gear. Some intermittent level gear may also be bought with Scrips, as quest rewards, or on a world’s Market Boards often at a heavy premium.

Crafting

The deliverable item is class agnostic, allowing players to create it with whichever of their Disciples of the Hand is highest, and then reap the rewards with a different class. When synthesizing an item it is important to reach the desired collectability stat by using actions that would normally improve Quality. This can include highly efficient ones like Precise Touch, or risky gambles with Hasty Touch. Also, be mindful that durability stays above zero by using Waste Not and Master’s Mend.

Mining and Botany

Collectibles have their own special mechanics for these gathering classes. The collectability stat will improve with the use of Appraisal actions that can multiply Perception by 50%-150%. Most of these (but not all) will decrease the Wear stat, making it harder to gather more items. This typically means that to balance the desired Perception and Wear each single node will likely yield between 2-4 items before being spent.

Fishing

Collectables will be among the random pool of fishable items. While not mandatory, Patience will give bonus Perception but lower the chance of successfully hooking a catch. Precision Hookset will negate this penalty on small fish that only tug lightly on the line, and Powerful Hookset will do the same for fish that tug strongly. One should rarely ever Mooch, as this will likely lead to a non-deliverable rare fish. Because every catch is unpredictable, it is important to have lots of inventory space; it is even possible to obtain future Custom Delivery items while aiming for lower-tier ones, or while pursuing other collectible fish.
