Futures Rewritten (FRU) Full Guide for FFXIV
This page contains preliminary information about the high-end Duty "Futures Rewritten (Ultimate)", commonly abbreviated as FRU.
Futures Rewritten (Ultimate)
Futures Rewritten (Ultimate), commonly abbreviated as FRU, is a high-end duty released on the 26th of November, 2024 with Patch 7.11. It can be unlocked by speaking with the Wandering Minstrel in Tuliyollal at (X:11.1,Y:14.6), after completing the fourth floor of the AAC Light-Heavyweight Savage raid series. This fight must be tackled with a full party of eight players, and the damage taken and dps checks are tuned for that party to be fully equiped with i730 gear. Being undergearred will be a significant disadvantage, so we strongly recommend grabbing a full set of Best-In-Slot gear, which you can find on any of the job pages on this website.
Completing Futures Rewritten (Ultimate) rewards the player with the title "Genesis of Legends," and an Oracle Totem which can be exchanged for an Ultimate Edenmorn weapon at Uah'shepya in Solution Nine (X:8.6,Y:13.5).
Encounter Text Guides
As FRU was only released extremely recently, strategies for tackling each phase have not yet been standardized, and early strategies may be replaced quickly. Furthermore, at the time of writing this, no group has cleared the fight yet. This section will be updated as the guides for subsequent phases are written, and please remember to check phases that already were written for updates to standardized strategies.
Data Center Resources and Strategies
