Pyros is Fun, I Swear! - Getting Every Achievement in FFXIV #26
Ойындар
It's time to get back to Pyros in Final Fantasy XIV. The Eureka grind is extensive, and we'll probably be stuck here until Dawntrail as we continue this ridiculous quest for achievements.

Oh my god..... I'm in the video. Several times. In my stupid moogle maid outfit. *facepalm* I saw you in pyros the other night. Even ended up partied for some NMs. I resisted the urge to fangirl, but I did take plenty of screenshots. What's really interesting is how quickly you make these videos, as that was only three days ago. Thanks for doing what you do, Cider. It's great content and really inspired me to try more things in the game. Good luck on your grind!

This was a more productive week. Lalachievements score 16,300. So I had two main pushes. First, I managed to clear enough inventory to do more splendorous tool prog. Consequently, I picked up Resplendent: Brilliant Needle, Brilliant Round Knife, Brilliant Saw, and Brilliant Mallet. I also happened to pick up I Can Dig It III while grinding for fire and wind crystals necessary for all the in-between crafts. Second, I did a lot more fishing. I picked up Go Big or Go Home VIII (Mirrorscale, Sabertooth Cod, Starbright, Caterwauler, Old Hollow Eyes, Magic Carpet), Go Big or Go Home IX (The Terpsichorean, Great Gudgeon, Discobolus, Fingers, Darkstar, Charibenet), and Go Big or Go Home X (Problematicus, The Salter, Meteor Survivor, Dark Knight, Charon's Lantern, Old Softie). Stats for these fish were as follows: Mirrorscale: caught, 3 bites, 40 mooches, 40 casts, 3 windows Sabertooth Cod: caught, 1 bite, 2 casts, 1 window Starbright: caught, 5 bites, 27 mooches, 51 casts, 3 windows Caterwauler: caught, 1 bite, 14 casts Old Hollow Eyes: caught, 1 bite, 37 mooches, 37 casts, 2 windows Magic Carpet: caught, 1 bite, 11 mooches, 30 casts, 1 window Sylphsbane: caught, 4 bites, 11 mooches, 19 casts, 1 window The Terpsichorean: caught, 3 bites, 26 casts, 1 window Great Gudgeon: caught, 1 bite, 17 casts Discobolus: caught, 4 bites, 108 casts, 4 windows Fingers: caught, 3 bites, 57 casts, 12 windows Darkstar: caught, 1 bite, 1 intuition, 2 mooches, 11 casts, 1 window Charibenet: caught, 1 bite, 11 intuitions, 31 mooches, 101 casts, 5 windows Problematicus: caught, 3 bites, 2 intuitions, 6 mooches, 21 casts, 1 window The Salter: caught, 2 bites, 95 casts, 4 windows Meteor Survivor: caught, 2 bites, 181 casts, 10 windows Dark Knight: caught, 1 bite, 4 casts, 1 window Charon's Lantern: caught, 10 bites, 164 casts, 5 windows Old Softie: caught, 3 bites, 57 casts, 2 windows Almost done with ARR fish now. I've only got 10 left, or 11 if you count Little Perykos since it's technically in an ARR zone. Or, well, I'm also not counting or even thinking about ocean fishing. You get what I mean. I've also knocked out basically all the HW fish I saw people complaining about online, so I'm probably going to start on HW fish proper very soon. I changed which fish I have tagged a bit. Right now, I have Armor Fish for HW, as the last HW legendary, and I've tagged Little Perykos mostly because it's kind of an ARR fish. For StB, I have Ruby Dragon and Drepanaspis tagged. I realized that I keep putting off Steth because I don't want to lock myself into the Lochs for who knows how long, so I'm basically just ignoring Steth and Lancet, maybe until the DT content lull after 7.55. Unclear if Sidereal Whale will wind up in that club too, I've still not familiarized myself with the EW fish particulars. Anyway, for ShB, I have Egg and Salad tagged, which makes me wish there was a nice egg salad sammich place near where I live. That's all for this week. I'm still trailing, but honestly a 500-point deficit is a lot smaller than I was expecting to be at.

Every intro, it starts with "Hi" and I'm just taken back by the juxtaposition
The glass jars have some value because they get used *very* frequently as handles in furniture, so all the housing enthusiasts are snatching them up.
I saw a guy quit after grinding for magicite item pieces for 3 years, and what made him quit wasn't even the the ridiculously terrible drop rate by itself; what really set him over the edge was being bullied in Eureka by people who spend the entire time mocking and insulting players while gloating about taking advantage of them by waiting on top of the spawn and then pulling the NM in a circle to deny as many players as possible from getting gold participation, artificially inducing further scarcity on the marketboard by reducing how many people get a chance at winning a piece

You only need silver for loot drops at least
7:00 - Welcome to EverQuest. We'd camp Named mob spawns in our groups (each area had "camps" the players named which normally had 2 or 3 Named who spawn nearby) and just sit for hours killing placeholders and Named mobs for the loot they CAN drop. Usually they all had 2-8 items that COULD drop but one was drop guaranteed.
The Gerolt back-n-forth got me good 😂
Hey saw myself in the video. rando machinist at 1:54 :). Glad to be a part of the grind.
Cantthank you enough of these videos.. they may not be walkthroughs, but the info and comedy is well worth the laugh.. Love the content and you've brought to light so many aspects of the game to me, I know there's years and years of content to look forward to.
I feel bad for all the achievements you're going to have to unlock that come with Dawntrail AFTER you get all the ones up through Endwalker. But I wish you the best of luck CiderSpider!

Hot hard buff lava crabs, their claws pinching hard.
Materia really is an interesting place, speaking as a Bismarck local since it dropped, there's so few people on average around the place that even the Limsa Aetheryte is generally pretty empty, makes trying to Aetherial Mimic a bit of a hassle
You take that back! My hot hands are absolutely improved by being on fire.
this is now what I look forward to every week. this shit right here is fantastic.
I really enjoy those dialogues you make with Gerolt and the snark you give back. XD
Excited for the time we can say Cider Spider (final fish btw)
Huge fan of videos, thanks for your suffering and our entertainment!
Over on Light DC we've had problems with masses of bots farming bunny fates in Pyros, so farming the special NMs always takes longer than it should since obviously those bots filling up the zone don't contribute to the killing.
Patiently waiting for Blue Mage content
Oh booooy, it's a new video from the Spider of the Cider, lemme get some snacks!
Dang, you manged to be there for the once a day (or so it seems) Penny spawn window. I always tell myself imma go for her and always forget to check for heatwave. I love Platebarer healer being ress tank in pyros
I too want Penthesilea to be part of the Scions. Alternatively, can she be the Voidsent equivalent of Halone?
Nice week! Thanks for the video!
I finally got 2 of my goals done this week. Goal 1: Used my Levequests and got all my crafters to Lv70. Next is the Gatherers so I can start grinding new accessories for V & VI crafting recipe ease of access. Goal 2: Finished the Sky Pirate set from Orbonne Monastery! *(47 runs for that damn top...)* Now to run RIdorana Lighthouse as The Leading Man for those Orch Rolls... *(I really love FF12.)* Bonus Goal 3: Acquired the Carbuncle Earrings. They're small, will never be seen all that much, but they are Carbuncle themed. And now they're mine.
@22:30 Yeah it was my bad with the Monk weapon thinking it was a Pagos stage, I do like the glow effects on the Monk weapon in the Pyros stage. Fists of Flame! Elsewise, whatever, it's overkill or meh on most items.
idk why i just read the quest objective for the child labor quest, but i read "see the diaper sale missive to their hands" and somehow that makes the quest name even funnier
This is great to wake up to
Great video Cider!
the closer you get to the top of the Diabolos leaderboard, the harder it gets to maintain your rank. ive lost 10 spots on the Brynhildr leaderboard because i dont have any fast chunks of achievements to earn anymore :c
My go to plate for Pyros was that one for DPS that like doubles their HP and quadruples their defense or whatever. Nice and cheap and let me not die as DPS when I zoned out completely...
Another week, and you've pulled even farther ahead of me (16815 lalachievement score to my 16505). I did, however, finish the Yokai event. In the meantime I earned some more passive grinds, like getting my final tank achievement mount, finishing my 3000th FATE, and turned in my 120th custom delivery to Anden.
I'm doing eureka for my WAR relic right now. And the leveling is honestly just so boring. I'm up to pogos now, but having to proverbially start over every zone is gonna get frustrating quick. Once it's done it's done and I don't have to re level any more if I decide to do more relics down the line. But first go around is definitely extremely rough.
fun choice using the music from the other field operation
I'm currently working on my summoner book, it's my first Eureka relic, but I kept getting distracted by the logogram farm, or the bunny farm, to get any worthwhile progress. At least I remembered why I love summoner so much
I wanted to see the relic axe, but it was not there?
To do Pyros I think your mind already has to be gone! Haha! Though getting to the end to be 'welcomed' into Moth Mom's arms seems worth it. lol
20:02 I rewatched your anima relics video the other day. Remember your tenacious a.f. gun?
Fun fact you can skip the Pyro's part of the magicite and go straight to 7 by collecting Molech's Horn, Goldemar's Horn, and Ceto's Claw in Hydratos

19:05 Ah, the memeworks station
Subsxribed for Moth Mommy. That and the deep and yet soothing "radio" voice.
Looking forward to Hydatos/Baldesion Arsenal video. Both are fascinating zones.
Pyros Knuckles are probably my most favorite monk relic weapons at the side of kaiser knuckles zeta
seeing you math out to 430~ish nms for all your relics makes me feel way better about my grind for 1 lmao currently on break bc i'm not subbed, but i'm not even at pyros cap, so i can't farm a majority of the 'better' nms for their drops and crystals, but it should feel a 'bit' faster than yours did 😂
Regardless of light grind vs crystal requirements, I still hate Pagos the most, just because of the way the zone is separated by the walls/big drops. Getting around the zone is such a huge pain. Pyros is also split, but you're not locked in to very specific routes, and it's a bit easier to get around the pain dragons.
AAAAGGH
I use the Hydatos Tuck on my main Red Mage glam, it was the main reason I did Eureka at all lol
will you do blue mage content after eureka?
omg dwarf spider uploaded a video
It's not shown in the video, but I do like how much sass we give Gerolt in this questline.
Damn 7000, and here I thought having over 1000 pyros crystal would be enough for all weapon. I must have forgotten the amount it take when I did one.
Mad because Pyros, but Happy for Momma Penny
to be fair, pyros is actually fun, you get logos actions and can do crazy stuff with them.
Getting the Skoll Fang might be good for content, to show how you go and do it. I imagine not everyone doing Eureka will be able to go for it after all
Awwwww, I wish I could be online when you're visiting Materia! I want to game with you sometime! Alas...
I was just thinking after doing Antitower the other day. Why does the Calcibrina model throw it back SO HARD when she's ground pounding?

All that grinding just to not the make the lance. Your commitment is astounding. But ah! All those achievement points you are throwing away!

Of course Penny is in the thumbnail

Poor Gerolt having to deal with such a sassy little baby lol.
i'm fairly new to the ciderverse so maybe i'm missing some key info here, but is there a valid reason for the dragoon meme? Is he really throwing away progress and achievement points for an inside joke? as a dragoon enjoyer i've been through far worse with the whole floor tank crap, so in the end it doesn't even matter.. but we got so far!
