The new Cosmic Exploration activity in FFXIV brings a fun mini-game with it, but is it really worth spending your Lunar Credits? Here is what you need to know!
The latest addition to Final Fantasy XIV is Cosmic Exploration, a brand-new lifestyle activity introduced in Patch 7.2 with the Dawntrail expansion. Much like the Ishgard Restoration before it, Cosmic Exploration is a community-focused feature where players work together to progress and upgrade a new zone, all while earning special rewards.
But be warned, it's a time investment! You'll spend several hours crafting and gathering inside the zone, completing tasks like Stellar Missions, Mech Ops, and Cosmic Research. If crafting and gathering aren't your favorite parts of the game, you might be wondering: is it actually worth the effort for the rewards?
What Makes It Worth It?
If you enjoy collecting rare mounts, minions, and unique cosmetics, then yes, Cosmic Exploration is absolutely worth your time.
By participating in the activity, you'll earn a new currency called Lunar Credits. These can be spent at the Cosmic Fortune, a special reward system that works like a spinning prize wheel. Every spin costs 1,000 Lunar Credits and gives you a chance at valuable items.
When you spend your credits, a window will pop up showing two different wheels, each displaying a selection of possible rewards. If you're lucky, one of the wheels may turn into a special "rare" wheel featuring better prizes, including the highly desired carrot prize (the best possible reward on that wheel).
The system is random, though. Sometimes you'll land something amazing, other times, not so much. Some wheels only have two options, which can increase your chances of getting something good. There's also a chance for a Stellar Opportunity to appear, which grants you another spin with an upgraded wheel full of even better rewards.
What Can You Win?
Some of the rarest and most valuable items include:
Vacuum Suit Identification Key (a mount), Cosmosuit Coffer (cosmetic outfit), Micro Rover Minion
If you're a collector or just love trying your luck with fun in-game systems, Cosmic Fortune might be exactly what you're looking for.

Cosmic Exploration is the latest Lifestyle content introduced in Patch 7.21 of Dawntrail. It functions similarly to the Ishgard Restoration: Players work together to develop and upgrade a shared zone while earning a variety of rewards.

This content has also its own unique rules and mechanics that differ from the rest of the game, including:
No mounts allowed A new sprint ability: Stellar Sprint Unique duty actions Modified spiritbonding system You will also gain access to an Exotablet, which works similarly to the Island Sanctuary tablet. It allows you to track your score, progress, credits, and activate Stellar Missions all in one place.

Cosmocredits can be spent on glamours, minions, dyes, and more. Lunar Credits are used for Cosmic Fortunes and Mech Ops. Cosmic Exploration also introduces the Cosmic Tools: Dawntrail's crafting and gathering relic tools. These start at level 10 and are upgraded over time to i720, gaining unique effects along the way.
Much like the Ishgard Restoration, the zone features a ranking system based on three types of contribution:
Missions completed as a Disciple of the Hand or Land Participation in Mech Ops Server-wide Projects (similar to large-scale FATEs that upgrade the region) You can find a real-time Ranking Period tracker in our guide, so you will always know when it's active.
And of course, you have a chance to earn exclusive rewards, including from the Cosmic Fortune — a roulette-style system that lets you roll for rare and valuable items!
