So You Wanna Hang Out in Idyllshire, Eh? Let’s Get You There, Kupo!
Hey adventurers, let’s discuss Idyllshire. You’ve seen screenshots. Now you want to visit this lovely place. First, how do you find it? Next, what can you do there? Don’t worry. We’ll guide you like a chocobo in cozy feathers.
Navigating to Nirvana (or Idyllshire, Potato Potahto)
Idyllshire isn’t hidden. It’s not in the center of Eorzea. It’s a charming spot, like a cafe down a quiet street. It’s worth the effort to find it. Here’s your guide:
- Looking for Khloe Aliapoh? She’s your Idyllshire Welcome Wagon (sort of). If you need directions, find Khloe. She’s a landmark. Look for her at (X:5.7 Y:6.1) in Idyllshire. She has that unique Aliapoh appeal.
- Rowena’s Fancy Goods? Naturally, She’s Set Up Shop Here. Rowena always turns up where there’s gil to collect. Idyllshire is prime for her ambitions. She recognizes a “business opportunity,” which means “a lot of adventurers with money.” Meet her and her team for your… Rowena-related needs.
- Tomestones of Poetics Burning a Hole in Your Pocket? Hismena’s Your Gal. Piled-up Poetics? Time to exchange! Hismena is here to swap old tomestones for useful items. Specifically, you can get Unidentifiable Shell and Unidentifiable Ore. Each costs 150 Tomestones of Poetics. Find Hismena at (X: 5.8, Y: 5.3). This is a public service for your overflowing inventory.
Custom Deliveries in Idyllshire: Because Crafting for NPCs is Apparently a Thing
You’ve reached Idyllshire! Great job! Now, you’re curious about more than scenic views and Rowena’s business tricks. Enter: Custom Deliveries. NPCs want your crafted items. We don’t know why. Just go with it. Here’s how to become the star delivery person:
Unlock the Delivery Grind: Quest Requirements Ahoy!
Before you start delivering crafted items, you must complete some tasks. Consider this your initiation into NPC deliveries.
- ‘Inscrutable Tastes’: Your Gateway to Collectables (Level 50 Required) You must finish the level 50 quest ‘Inscrutable Tastes’. This unlocks the Collectables system, which is essential for Custom Deliveries. No Collectables? No deliveries. It’s that straightforward.
- ‘Go West, Craftsman’: Level 60 and Beyond for Delivery Mastery Next, complete the level 60 quest ‘Go West, Craftsman’. Head to Mor Dhona and find Lydirlona at (X:22.3, Y:6.8) for this quest. This continues unlocking the Collectable system and opens access to Scrip vendors. Crucially, it’s essential for unlocking Custom Deliveries. So, go to Mor Dhona and speak with Lydirlona!
Meet the Delivery Crew: Idyllshire’s Picky Patrons
Who will you be delivering to in Idyllshire? Let’s introduce Nitowikwe. Yes, that’s her name. Try saying it three times fast! Good luck!
- Nitowikwe: The Level 90 Delivery Diva (Disciple of Hand or Land Required) To deliver to Nitowikwe, meet some conditions. You must be a Disciple of Hand or Land Level 90 or higher. Also, complete the Level 100 Main Scenario Quest ‘The Warmth of Family’. Yes, you need a Level 100 MSQ for a Level 90 Custom Delivery NPC.
Logic? Who needs it? Once you meet those criteria, Nitowikwe awaits your crafted items (or whatever she wants that week).
Delivery Limits: Don’t Get Too Delivery-Happy
Before becoming Idyllshire’s delivery master, keep in mind there are limits. It’s meant to prevent crafting burnout. The game cares, kind of.
- 12 Deliveries a Week, Max: Pace Yourself! You can only do 12 custom deliveries weekly for all NPCs. Choose wisely who to pamper with your crafted items.
- 6 Deliveries Per NPC: Spread the Love (or the Crafted Goods) You can make up to six deliveries per NPC. No favoritism allowed.
- Tuesday Morning Reset: The Weekly Delivery Alarm Clock Your delivery limit resets every Tuesday morning. If you hit your cap, wait patiently until Tuesday to continue delivering. Use the time to adventure or something.
Pronunciation Ponderings: Is it “Eye-dill-shire” or “Id-ill-shire”? The Great Debate!
“Idyllshire” is tricky to pronounce. It sparks many discussions in chats or Discord. Is it “Eye-dill-shire”? Or “Id-ill-shire”? Even experienced adventurers stumble over this word. The truth is… there’s no official pronunciation guide. Pick whichever way you prefer! As long as you can get there and know what to do upon arrival, does it really matter how you say it? Probably not. But hey, at least it gives you something to debate while waiting for crafting timers!
There you go! Your detailed (and maybe a bit funny) guide to Idyllshire. Now venture forth, explore, deliver, and maybe even try pronouncing “Idyllshire” correctly. Good luck, adventurer!
