Manderville Weapons Relic Guide in FFXIV
Manderville Relic weapons are the level 90 Endwalker Relics. Once fully upgraded, these relics were the best-in-slot for each respective class by the end of the expansion. With the relase of Dawntrail, these weapons are primarily glamour with unique glowing effects.
Unlike previous Relics, this series has no additional side content tied to it that you must progress through to obtain your weapon, making Manderville relics much simpler and easier in comparison.
They do however, require a very long quest chain to unlock which has been detailed below.
Unlocking your Manderville Relic Weapons (Step 1)
To get to the point where you can unlock these tools, you must complete a quest chain with 42 quests involved. The story is a fan favourite so you may want to get comfy and enjoy, otherwise it will take several hours to complete if you skip all cutscenes.
The chain starts with The Rise and Fall of Gentlemen and ends with The Imperfect Gentleman. On the lodestone the quest chain is split into multiple segments based on the expansion. Here are the links to follow through:
- A Realm Reborn Hildibrand Adventures
- Heavensward Further Hildibrand Adventures
- Stormblood Even Further Hildibrand Adventures
- Endwalker Somehow Further Hildibrand Adventures
There are no level 80 Hildibrand Adventures.
Once these quests have been completed, you can begin the quest Make It a Manderville. This quest will then task you with obtaining three Manderium Meteorite which can be purchased by speaking to Jubrunnah in Radz-at-Han (X:12, Y:11).
Each Manderium Meteorite will cost you 500 Allagan Tomestones of Poetics or 1500 total. The quest will then give you the first i615 Manderville Weapon.
Purchasing Additional Manderville Weapons
Once the quest has been completed for the first time, additional Manderville Weapons can be purchased through the same method of three Manderium Meteorite for 500 Allagan Tomestones of Poetics each. This is through the repeatable quest Make Another Manderville.
This will cost you 28,500 Allagan Tomestones of Poetics total for all classes including the 1,500 from the initial quest.
Amazing Manderville Weapons (Step 2)
Upgrading your weapons involves a very similar process to the initial purchase of the weapons. That is, using more Allagan Tomestones of Poetics.
To unlock the ability to upgrade your weapons you need to complete the quest Generational Bonding to then unlock Well-Oiled. Well-oiled will then give you your first relic as completion of the quest. Further relics must then be purchased while undertaking the quest The Next Mander-level.
Each of these weapons will require three Complementary Chondrite which again, cost 500 Allagan Tomestones of Poetics each. Costing 28,500 total for all classes.
