With the launch of FFXIV Patch 7.1, a range of new rewards and unlockables awaits players in Final Fantasy XIV. Among the highlights is the Adamant Weapon Minion, a mini version of the intimidating Diamond Weapon, a fan-favorite from The Cloud Deck and other Final Fantasy games.
Wondering how to get your hands on this fierce little companion? Here’s everything you need to know to unlock the Adamant Weapon Minion in FFXIV.
How to Unlock the Adamant Weapon Minion in FFXIV
The Adamant Weapon Minion is awarded as part of the PvP Series 7, introduced in Patch 7.1. It’s unlocked as a level 15 PvP Series reward, requiring you to earn Series EXP by participating in any PvP game mode. Wins will earn you the most EXP, though you’ll still make progress for placing lower (second or third, depending on the game type).
Each level without a specific reward also grants 1,000 Trophy Crystals, which can be exchanged with the Crystal Quartermaster at The Wolves’ Den Pier (X: 4.4, Y: 6.1) for additional prizes.
Reaching level 15 is estimated to take about 10-15 hours of PvP play. Some players power through in a single day, but if you prefer a more relaxed pace, completing a daily Frontline match should get you there in around two months. Or, you can dedicate a few days to intense PvP sessions!
The PvP Series 7 will continue until Patch 7.2, which we expect in March 2025 based on the FFXIV patch schedule. Don’t wait until the last day to start grinding – it’s easy to miss out on rewards in the final hours of a patch!
