I Finished EVERY Shadowbringers Relic Weapon - Getting Every Achievement #15

After innumerable runs of Castrum Lacus Litore, Delubrum Reginae, and The Dalriada - on top of countless hours spent in Bozja and Zadnor - I've now finally collected enough memories to finish every combat relic in Final Fantasy XIV's Shadowbringers expansion. My achievement score will truly never be the same.

Drunk Cider bullying Zlatan every 30 seconds. Also child labor quest on the side gave me a good laugh.

[@psycholuigiman]

The one about getting injured while skateboarding really got me. Like, that's such a terrible burn that he could only say with such confidence while under the influence of just the right amount of whiskey.

[@TotoTheBest91]

poor Zlatan, he did nothing to deserve this

[@greghuntley8945]

The 2 packs of crackers in the chili is what got me

[@Zanador]

The Child Labor bit has actually been going since before this series even started. You can see it in his quest log in the Party Finder Raid videos.

[@Lrbearclaw]

Let's be fair. Zlatan looks like someone who mains Black Mage.

[@rept7]

Zlatan looks like he thinks black pepper is too spicy.

A Canadian distillery won both Gold for single Malt and Silver for blended at the world whiskies awards this year. Cheap whisky is cheap whisky, but in general Canadian whisky (which we typically make with Rye and so usually will differentiate it by calling it Rye or Rye whisky) is internationally recognized......

Zlatan wiggles his fingers and says "dont mind if i do" when he sees a box of krispy kremes

The commitment to the no dragoon bit is getting out of control.

[@ValkyrieTiara]

How did it start? WHY did it start?

[@cordellsl]

@@ValkyrieTiara i also want to know the origin of this bit. Deleting all those spare materials was some serious commitment

[@SoraShadowdancer]

So THAT'S what's going on! When he chucked all those extra items in the HW relic video I got so anxious. Like, "No! Don't throw them away, you might still need them!" As others have requested, please explain this bit? I don't understand.

[@rogthepirate4593]

I, too, require an explanation. Just out of curiosity, not because I'm a DRG main or anything of course.

[@TheIvoryDingo]

He won't be able to avoid it once he goes for the Zodiac weapons, as there's an achievement for getting the first stage of all of them (excluding Ninja)... which includes Dragoon.

[@kyushiko]

"You look like you raise tamagotchis" he says, while I'm over here feeding my tamagotchi. Called out.

[@brittainknee]

It brings me much joy to hear Cider roast Zlatan and then immediately announce "quick to judge:.."

[@JohnSears]

I was not expecting the majority of Bionicle lore in my life to come from an FFXIV achievement hunting video. I do remember owning Hewkii and Nuparu Inika as a kid.

[@JadeHarleyBizarrely]

the running gag of neglecting dragoon's relics and throwing away the pieces for them brings me pain...

[@latios3874]

Is there a reason he's skipping them?

[@KazikoWhite]

@@latios3874He doesn't have a Dragoon, it's still a Lancer (as far as I remember)

[@Calculusman1084]

going great with VII Rebirth dropping, and me starting P8S. Ur PF vid for the fight is a daily joy to help me laugh through the pain. Really looking forward to seeing you tackle UwU or TEA In PF

[@ShaminMike]

bro my fucking wife got me a Tamagotchi for Christmas and my 5 yr old loves it!

[@SolWarriorNidhogg]

29:47 You can actually buy non-glowy versions of the weapons as glamour from the Allagan Node! That shotgun in particular should be called "Matte Replica Blade's Ingenuity."

[@FieryKanata]

Yees! The matte version is still my machinist weapon to this day ever since I got it!

[@Dw7freak]

It's not the node, it's the person next to the node. But yeah. I'm not the biggest fan of the petals, especially the green ones.

[@SolWarriorNidhogg]

@Dw7freak Oh whoops, I guess it's been a while lol. Thanks for the correction!

[@futurepastnow]

The matte replicas are my favorites, especially the shotgun and the gunblade, which just looks like a classic gunblade... but HUGE

[@gateauxq4604]

The non-glowy guns are all pretty lit

[@FantasmicDragon1]

I'm going to call it. There'll be a part where it's 'Getting All the DRG Relics'. It's happened twice where he 'overshot' the relics he needed for the weapons.

[@TheIvoryDingo]

I expect it'll be when he goes for the Zodiac weapons achievements (as there's an achievement to get the first stage of all the 2.0 job weapons)

[@Zanador]

I'm making a different bet. I'm betting that his plan is to get literally every achievement that doesn't require Dragoon before he even unlocks the job.

[@Slayerlord13]

@@ZanadorNah, he'll just finish like that, scroll over the unfinished dragoon achievements one last time and go "well we finally did it, every achievement in final fantasy fourteen."

[@gateauxq4604]

The video will be called ‘oops all dragoon’

[@mainstreamvoltage]

dragoon is getting a rework, he could just wait until dawntrial and be like "dawntrial added three jobs, one of which is dragoon, and for some reason they added relics for this job for past expansions

[@greedlings]

theres just something about the chocobo theme slurring as the Delubrum runs went on that sent me LOL

[@Matrim12]

I was not prepared for the "puts dimes in his pennyloafers" roast. I don't even know why I found that one the funniest of the bunch

[@thealmightyhent-taiking7075]

Oh hey, I was one of the ones who helped for your last 5 runs. Honestly didnt know about you till others mentioned your channel to me, just thought "cool someones running Delibroom". Glad to help you on your achivement hunting. Gratz again on the relics!

[@munin_0114]

For those who haven't finished their Timeworn Artifact grind and are also achievement hunters, I'd like to propose an alternate way of getting the remaining Timeworns. You see, you only need 50 clears of Delubrum Reginae to finish the achievement. You can't actually start the relic grind until you've finished Delubrum at least once so the remaining 49 runs will give you 147 Timeworn Artifacts which is a bit less than the 255 you need to complete all steps of the grind. My recommendation after that point is actually to start trying to complete Palace of the Dead's Necromancer title, since at higher floors the droprate for the Timeworn Artifacts ends up being about one per floor set and if you're a mere mortal (like me) you'll probably have to make several attempts at getting a clear which will put you closer to the goal of 255 to minimize the amount of actual stuff you have to do. If you're worried about Raw Emotions for the next step, don't be. You end up getting 147 from Dalriada clears and (potentially) 88 from Delubrum clears if you're lucky which puts you at 235 from Bozja content so it'll be very easy to run some StB dungeons or try for your Lone Hero title. Of course, do what makes you happy and makes this feel like less of a grind, I'm just putting in my two cents for how to go about doing these.

[@jasonclark3351]

You will legit get the rest of the timeworn artifacts you need when grinding the PoTD weapons aswell.

[@genma200sj]

"looks like he uses the wrist strap on the wii remotes" goddamn it man. I ain't trying to shoot bourbon outta my nose man!

[@PlumbobAlise]

Also would 100% watch your Mentor Roulette videos. Currently working towards my own BK crown and interested in seeing how it goes for you lol

[@Greyknight1575]

The flying Bionicle sets were weird in that instead of doing all six villain figures in one wave and all six Toa figures in one wave, they instead had both waves be half villains half toa. The first flying wave was Phantoka, it had Lewa, Kopaka, and Pohatu as the Toa and black, red, and blue villians. The second flying wave was the Mistika, that wave had Tahu, Gali, and Onua as the toa, and white, green, and yellow colored villains.

[@ClanCrusher]

It warms my heart to see you developing such a deep and meaningful friendship with Zlatan.

[@SKy_the_Thunder]

It's rare to find someone who still has as much random Bionicle trivia floating around in his head as I do. If you ever feel the urge to build your own sets without bankrupting yourself on plastic, the Bricklink Studio has pretty much all Bionicle parts implemented. It even has a built-in rendering system that creates photo-realistic images of your sets. I got so many MOCs I created in that years ago, fanficed into the lore as some forgotten island full of experiments from when the Great Beings first tinkered with creating Toa... Also: Lewa supremacy! I prefer the original look of his Kanohi though. All other versions of it are kinda fugly.

[@raehex9092]

Cider just chainsmoking that Zlatan pack nonstop, god bless.

[@No0neat]

Look. Cider. Imma be real with you for a minute. I love your content. I love your humor. I love the dedication that you have to this community and to the task.... But please. Please please please PLEASE watch your alcohol intake. All i'm gonna say is these two words. Mitten Squad. I love you, stay safe, stay who you are but just... Watch how much you drink. I don't wanna lose ya too buddy.

Ive got 3 and a half days in the xbox free trial already and ive already begun going for the luminary tool for goldsmith. My friend has been asking me to finish the MSQ to catch up so we can talk about stuff but i just keep laughing and hammering away getting my mats. I am truly addicted and i love every second i run from node to node getting my materials to craft. Im joing the achievement hunt brother so thanks for being so entertaining with the vids.

[@Chacesumica]

Man good luck to that. Any crafting with out being able to stock up on materials is gonna be rough. Especially when you need mats from other trades and dont have a market board.

[@murphyseanm]

RIP the OG Choco Taco. I had the last one at Operyland Resort in Nashville, I was there for a week and ate one every night and the last night spent over an hour and found the last one.

[@UnavoidableFate]

The commitment to bullying Zlatan is the best part of this whole episode.

[@DacianGradaMusic]

mentor rroulettes can be a source of immeasurable pain, but also CONTENT. Definitely nice to have a mentor video or section here and there to spice things up!

[@VanessaVersus]

"Must be a day ending in night" is a 10/10 phrase that I am stealing for my own use

[@hiten_style]

This was the best video in the series so far because of the Zlatan bullying. And the Bionicles deep dive reminded me of the time I was at a party where it turned out that someone there basically had a doctorate in Animorphs lore and that became the recurring topic of the night.

[@PinkLionArt]

Yay! The next video! I love this little series, you even motivated me to get started on things like leves even though I’m still somewhere in the EW MSQ.

[@Gooberzilla]

The Zlatan bashing had me in stitches.

Every release of one of these videos is a mini event and I love it. Keep it up!

[@nahliphen]

Unrelated to achievement hunting, but I've noticed over multiple videos that you've had that Child Labor quest active at 5/6 for a while now. I'm beginning to wonder, is this just for the ongoing "mad because small" meme? "Mad because child labor"

[@Nazuiko]

Hes had that quest active for *at least* 2 years.Afaik its been sitting there as the "active" quest since he was in Stormblood.

Ive never done delubrum, but thansk to watching Cider play Delubrum so many times, I recognized when they borrowed a boss mechanic for another encounter last night. The Yeti in Snowcloak uses the large and small bombs mechanic from queens warrior, just with snowballs instead. I hadnt run that dungeon since it was changed, so it was my first time seeing it lol.

[@joshplater3963]

I'm definitely a fan of you doing a Mentor Roulette series. Specifically, a clip reel of all of the scuff that happens. Maybe specific videos on the actual fights talking about the mechanics as a Mentor should, so other people can learn them. Done in your own way of course.

I never got deep into the Bionicle show or lore, but my brother had a few toys that I ended up playing with more often as I gradually inherited all his LEGO stuff. The one I remember loving the most was, after doing some quick research, called Gahlok, which apparently wasn;t even their own character and was instead an entire race, but I just really liked the design because they were so weirdly shaped compared to all the other toys.

[@shawnmoulton1529]

There were so many insults to Zlatan that I ended up feeling called out 6 or 7 times.

[@chestercarter6081]

Idk how ya do Boreza I done it while it was live and absolutely hated it. I must congratulate you and wish you well.

[@primalmeridian]

other people have probably commented this, but you CAN get versions of the final relic weapons that don't have the (very divisive) glow effect on them ; you can buy them from your bestie Regana, they're called "Matte" replicas. i've grinded out multiple of these relics solely so i could then buy the version without the effect (the Matte Blade's Serenity is one of my favorite Monk weapons in the game so far).

[@greencapps]

Aww fuck yea Bionicle trivia my time has come. Artaka is the correct name for the forger but we never saw what he looked like till the reboot and that's an entirely different continuity. The Inika didn't fall in energized protodermis they were hit by energy from the red star and that's what mutated them into toa. As for the flying toa they're still the Nuva in universe but the toy lines they were from are Phantoka and Mistika with half of them in each.
