To unlock the Weeping City of Mhach in Final Fantasy XIV, you need to complete a series of prerequisites. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to unlock this raid:
1. Complete The Void Ark raid: Before you can unlock the Weeping City of Mhach, you must first complete The Void Ark raid. This raid is part of the Crystal Tower series and can be accessed by speaking to Stacia in The Sea of Clouds (X: 6.2, Y: 5.8). Stacia will provide you with the quest “To Rule the Skies,” which serves as the starting point for The Void Ark raid.
2. Complete the quest “To Rule the Skies”: Once you have accepted the quest from Stacia, follow the objectives and complete The Void Ark raid. The raid consists of multiple boss fights and encounters, so be prepared for challenging battles. Upon successfully completing the raid, you will unlock the next step in the questline.
3. Speak to Stacia after completing The Void Ark: After finishing The Void Ark raid, return to Stacia in The Sea of Clouds to report your success. She will have a new quest available called “The Weeping City.” This quest serves as the unlock quest for the Weeping City of Mhach raid.
4. Accept and complete “The Weeping City” quest: Accept the quest from Stacia and follow the objectives to unlock the Weeping City of Mhach raid. The quest will likely involve speaking to NPCs, exploring new areas, and possibly completing a mini-dungeon or trial.
5. Enter the Weeping City of Mhach: Once you have completed the “The Weeping City” quest, you will be able to enter the Weeping City of Mhach raid. To access the raid, use the Duty Finder or speak to the appropriate NPC located near the entrance of the raid.
It’s important to note that the Weeping City of Mhach is a 24-player raid, so you will need to gather a full party or join a group through the Duty Finder to participate. The raid is known for its challenging encounters and mechanics, so be prepared for a difficult but rewarding experience.
Personal Experience:
I remember when I first unlocked the Weeping City of Mhach. It was a thrilling experience as I had just completed The Void Ark raid and was eager to continue the story. The questline leading up to the unlock was engaging and provided a sense of progression.
Upon entering the Weeping City of Mhach, I was immediately struck by the haunting atmosphere and the intricate design of the raid. The boss fights were challenging but well-designed, requiring coordination and teamwork from the entire raid group.
One of the most memorable encounters for me was the battle against Ozma, a powerful voidsent. The mechanics of the fight were complex, and it took several attempts for our group to master them. However, the sense of accomplishment when we finally defeated Ozma was incredibly satisfying.
Unlocking and experiencing the Weeping City of Mhach was a highlight of my Final Fantasy XIV journey. It provided a challenging and immersive raid experience, further expanding the game’s rich lore and storytelling.
