Following the tradition of its predecessors, the expansion features Naoki Yoshida as the director and producer, ensuring a continuation of the game's high-quality experience. The soundtrack for Endwalker was composed by Masayoshi Soken, adding a captivating musical backdrop to the gameplay.

Endwalker was released as a standalone expansion pack, catering to existing players of the game.

How Do You Unlock Manderville Quests?

The Manderville weapon quest chain is a series of quests introduced in version 6.25 of Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker. These quests are specifically designed for players at level 90. However, it is important to note that this quest chain can be easily overlooked if the necessary prerequisites have not been completed.

To initiate the Manderville weapon quest chain, players must first finish all of the Hildibrand side quests. Patch 6.25 added a few additional quests related to Hildibrand in the "Somehow Even Further Hildibrand" quest chain. These quests become available after completing all other Hildibrand quests. Additionally, players must have completed the Main Story Quest titled "Endwalker."

The location for the 6.25 Hildibrand quest in Endwalker is Radz-at-Han, with coordinates X: 11.8 and Y: 11.2. To begin the quest chain named "Make It a Manderville," players need to follow these steps:

  • Complete all Hildibrand quests.
  • Speak to the Manderville Manservant in Radz-At-Han.
  • Speak to Jubrunnah.
  • Purchase 3 Manderium Meteorites.
  • Turn in the quest.

Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker Gameplay

The gameplay and quest structure in Endwalker closely resemble those of the base game. Like many other MMORPGs, players engage with each other in a persistent world that reacts to their actions. To address issues related to numerical values, such as overflowing errors caused by excessively large enemy health pools, Endwalker introduces a numerical down-scaling, often referred to as a "stat squish" by MMO players. This ensures a balanced experience.

Endwalker introduces two new jobs. The first is the Sage, a healer class that utilizes magical objects called Nouliths, inspired by Funnels from the Gundam franchise. Sages direct aetheric energy to create barriers and enhance their offensive capabilities. The second new job is the Reaper, an armored melee fighter wielding a scythe.

Reapers can summon avatars from the void to gain increased power. Numerous other jobs receive updates and changes, including a complete rework of the Summoner job, significant enhancements to the Monk job, and the introduction of new abilities for various other jobs. The expansion also brings a comprehensive overhaul of the player versus player (PvP) system.

PvP abilities for all jobs undergo complete reworks to streamline the experience. Additionally, a new "small-scale" PvP mode called Crystalline Conflict is introduced, while the previous "Feast" mode is retired. Rewards previously exclusive to the Feast are now obtainable by participating in Crystalline Conflict.

Estinien, a character who became an ally during the events leading up to Endwalker, can now be chosen as a companion through the Trust system introduced in Shadowbringers. A subsequent update allows players to utilize the Trust system in A Realm Reborn and Heavensward dungeons, with plans to include Stormblood dungeons as well. This allows players to enjoy the Main Story Quest as a predominantly single-player experience.

Following the expansion's launch, additional content is introduced, including the Myths of the Realm raid series, which delves into the myths and legends surrounding the deities worshipped in Eorzea. Another raid series called Pandæmonium focuses on a mysterious location tied to a previous antagonist, Lahabrea.

Similar to changes made in Shadowbringers, certain Main Story quests undergo alterations, such as replacing the trial "Cape Westwind" with a single-player instance and restructuring the dungeons "Castrum Meridianum" and "The Praetorium" to streamline their progression. Patch 6.2 of Endwalker introduces the Island Sanctuary, a farming simulation mode where players can cultivate a garden on a deserted island, raise livestock, and interact with pets.

The Island Sanctuary offers a "slow life" experience, providing a relaxing solo activity without the pressures of competition. Additional updates include changes to Main Story quests, such as replacing the trial "The Steps of Faith" with a single-player instance and modifying boss mechanics in early dungeons like "The Aery."

Endwalker expands player housing with the introduction of a new housing area called the Empyreum in the city-state of Ishgard. To address concerns about housing availability, a lottery-based method for acquiring a house is implemented. More wards are assigned to player guilds known as Free Companies to improve access to housing.

Patch 6.18 expands the World Visit system, allowing players to travel to other data centers within their region, significantly increasing opportunities for player interactions. Data centers specifically for the Oceania region are added to enhance connectivity for players in locations like New Zealand and Australia, separate from the data centers intended for Japan.
