When it comes to new patch drops, Final Fantasy 14 players are eager to get hold of all the shiny new items that have just been added to the game, and Patch 6.45 is no different. There are a range of new mounts, minions, gear, and other interesting goodies to loot.
This patch saw four new minions being added, so minion collectors unite — you've got work to do. If you were wondering how to get each one, we break it all down for you right here. Here's what you need to know.
How To Get The Wind-up PuPu Minion
Final Fantasy 8 fans rejoice as PuPu can now follow your Warrior of Light wherever you go! To earn this minion, you need to complete the 'Not from Around Here' Level 90 side quest that is part of the Somehow Further Hilidibrand Adventures.
The quest giver is Hildibrand in Thavnair at (X:15.2, Y:15.1), though you need to have completed the previous quests in this questline.
If you have yet to begin any of the Hildibrand content, you can accept 'The Rise and Fall of Gentlemen' from Wymond in Ul'dah - Steps of Nald at (X:9.8, Y:8.7).
How To Get The Kuromaru Minion
The Kuromaru minion is one of the possible rewards from the Mount Rokkon Variant Dungeon. You can unlock Mount Rokkon by completing the quest 'Mononoke Aware', which you can start by speaking with Shallow Moor in Old Sharlayan at (X:12.0, Y:13.3).
It's also available from the Market Board, so you can avoid all the the drama of RNG and poor rolls and just buy one if you wish to.
How To Get The Shiromaru Minion
The Shiromaru minion is also one of the possible rewards from the Mount Rokkon Variant Dungeon.
Unlike its buddy Kuromaru, it cannot be sold on the Market Board so if you want this adorable little ninja pup, you're going to have to put in some time and effort to earn it.
How To Get The Okuri Chochin Minion
Finally, the Okuri Chochin minion is another possible reward from the Mount Rokkon Variant Dungeon.
This minion can also be purchased on the Market Board, so if you want to save yourself some trouble, just shell out some of your hard-earned gil.
