In Final Fantasy XIV, a Carbuncle is a magical creature summoned by Arcanists (ACN) and their advanced jobs, Summoner (SMN) and Scholar (SCH). Heres everything you need to know about Carbuncles in FFXIV: What is a Carbuncle? Carbuncles are small, gem-like familiars that serve as the primary pets for Arcanists. They are based on the classic Final Fantasy summon but function as persistent pets in FFXIV. Their appearance varies by color (Ruby, Emerald, Topaz, etc.), each tied to different abilities. Types of Carbuncles Arcanist (ACN) Carbuncles (pre-job): - Emerald Carbuncle (DPS pet) Used for dealing damage. - Topaz Carbuncle (Tank pet) Rarely used; was historically a tank pet but is now mostly obsolete. Summoner (SMN) Carbuncles: - Initially, Summoners use Carbuncles before unlocking stronger Egis (Ifrit, Titan, Garuda). - Post-Endwalker (6.0), Carbuncles are mostly cosmetic or used in low-level content. Scholar (SCH) Carbuncle: - Scholars start with a Carbuncle before obtaining their fairy (Eos/Selene). - Now purely visual, as fairies handle all healing. How to Summon a Carbuncle Arcanist/Summoner: Use "Summon Carbuncle" (lvl 2 ability). Scholar: Automatically summoned when the job is unlocked (lvl 30). Carbuncle Customization Players can change the Carbuncles color via "Summoner's Attire" (glamour) or certain minions. Some special Carbuncles (like the Golden Carbuncle) are obtained through events or achievements. Notable Appearances MSQ (Main Scenario Quest): Carbuncles appear in early Arcanist quests. The Great Gubal Library (Dungeon): Features a boss fight against a Demon Tome that summons Carbuncles. Island Sanctuary: A Plush Carbuncle can be placed as outdoor decor. Trivia Carbuncles were originally designed with different roles (Topaz for tanking, Emerald for DPS), but this was phased out in later expansions. The "Carbuncle" mount (a giant, rideable version) was a reward from the FFXV crossover event. Would you like details on a specific aspect, like abilities or how to obtain a certain Carbuncle variant?

Great raids, some bugs

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
