Although the game doesn’t require players to go through many of the quests in Final Fantasy XIV, one of the questlines is a rite of passage into the FFXIV fandom, and that is the Hildibrand adventures quests. Not only are they humorous, but they’re also required for the next relic weapons.
These quests are required to start the Endwalker Manderville Relic Weapons, which have already seen the release of the first step, while the second step was released in Patch 6.35. Because these quests are likely going to be tied to the Manderville Relic Weapons, Square Enix might be releasing a few new quests in between every large patch, which will add a new layer to the Relic Weapon questline.
For those who haven’t already started their dive into the madness of the Manderville-themed quests, players will be taken through the story of Hildibrand and his misadventures throughout Eorzea. The side quest chain will eventually lead players to the next set of Relic Weapons, called the Manderville weapons.
The quest line has been active since A Realm Reborn and many were upset to find out that nothing was added for it after Shadowbringers was released, but producer and director Naoki Yoshida promised he had big plans for the story. Endwalker’s adventures with Hildibrand will be titled “Somehow Further Hildibrand Adventures,” but players will need to unlock everything that came before it to access the new content.
How to start Hildibrand quests in FFXIV
To begin the Hildibrand quests, players should find Wymond in Ul’dah at X:9.8 Y:8.7. Toons will need to be level 50 or above to begin the quests. There are several parts to the questlines, which will require higher levels and different content to be unlocked. Free trial players will be able to go through the quests up until level 60, which is the level cap for those on the trial.
Below is a list of all of the Hildibrand quests and what level your character needs to be to access them.
