Do you know something about Promyvion that isn't covered here? Add it in! Rate ups for the useful people! We can continue this thread after an actual mission/quest/something is created to detail the Emptiness quests. 'til then, here we go... Feel free to link up other relevant threads on this subject.

Get the Mission

Short form of the Emptiness access quests:

0) No known requirements, other than starting the Mission, as described:

1) Hit Lower Delkfutt's Tower. Cutscene.
2) Hit Upper Jeuno. Cutscene.
3) Go to the Upper Jeuno infirmary (on the map), talk to Monberauxe. It's his infirmary.
4) Go to Ru'Lude Gardens, head into the palace, hang a left at the main stairwell and go through the door -- the guard room -- talk to the tall elf, named Pherimociel.
5) Go visit a shattered crystal. It'll ask you twice if you're ready.
6) You'll spawn the Hall of Transference. To use one of the Large Apparatus machines there. Short cutscene. Afterwards stroll up to the Cermet Gate and get your game on.

Fighting in Promyvion

General details about the Emptiness:

* Level cap is 30.

* Experience will be earned here. Any XP you earn is at a reduced rate (see the update notes for the pre-CoP patch, they detailed this change). Any XP earned at the reduced rate will be applied to your main class. Handy! If you die, you'll take a penalty at Level 30 rates, not at your main's level.

* Once you've entered an Emptiness realm, you cannot enter another until you either finish it entirely, or have your memory erased by the Large Apparatus at the front of the zone.

* There are ~4 floors in the Emptiness. The last area is the Spire, where a BCNM fight awaits.

- Fighting the Emptiness -

Pay attention to the core of the Empties; by noting the color, you can tell what it's elemental properties are -- and from that, you'll know what weakness it has.

The purpose of this guide is to discuss how Moghancements actually work. This information was developed through the collective efforts of regular posters to the Allakhazam Main FFXI Forum.

HOW MOGHANCEMENTS WORK

Every item of furniture is associated to one element (fire, earth, water, wind, ice, thunder, light, dark). The element can be seen when viewing the furniture - it appears in the lower right using the same icons as used for elemental weather.

Every item of furniture also has a Moghancement associated with it. Although the element of the furniture will indicate some possible moghancements you will get, use the Furniture list below if you looking for a particular Moghancement.

The elemental strength of different types of furniture can vary from weak to strong. For example, the elemental strength of a flower pot is weaker than that of a bronze bed. In our research, we measured the elemental strength of each type of furniture against the weakest known furniture items - Rusty Buckets and Flowerpots (except porcelain). In the list below, the elemental strengths listed are relative to the Rusty Bucket/Flowerpot elemental strength of 1.

You can only have one Moghancement at a time. Which one you gets depends on which element is dominant in your furniture layout. To determine which element is dominant, add up elemental strength of each item of furniture (earth+2 is twice as strong as wind+1).

If no element is dominant in your layout, you will get no Moghancement effect. For example, if you have 2 flower pots and 1 flower stand in your house, the elemental effects are of equal strength and you get no Moghancement.

As almost all players have already noted, it is a very lengthy process to obtain gil in Final Fantasy XI. There are, however, some quests which allow you to take "shortcuts" in the gil making process. Before you go any further in this guide, it is advisable that you obtain Level 4 fame in Bastok, Windurst, San d'Oria and Norg. If you are unsure how to do this, take a look at Tekkub's fame guide, located here.

The following guide is divided up into 3 short sections. A Ninja section, which you will want to avoid if you plan on leveling Ninja, a White Mage section, which you will want to avoid if you plan on taking White Mage to 36, and a Black Mage section, which you will want to avoid if you plan on leveling Black Mage. Please note, that it is advised to use silent oils/prism powders for several of the quests detailed here.

-Note: As I play on the Phoenix server, all prices listed are based on that AH, actual prices on your server may vary-

Ninja

----------

When starting the Ninja quests, you will need rank 4 (or so) fame in Norg. This is easily obtained by doing either the Shady Business quest in Port Bastok or the Mihgo's Amigos quest in Windurst Woods. You will need about 200 Yagudo Necklaces or 100 Zinc Ores to get to the required amount of fame.

Once you have obtained the proper amount of fame, travel to Norg (Jeuno > Kazham > Yuhtunga Jungle > Sea Serpent Grotto > Norg) and look for the following people: Keal, Heiji, Shivivi, Washu, and Laisrean. These five people will give you the money making quests in Norg.

-Many of these quests require leaving Norg and then coming back, so it is recommended that you set your Home Point in Norg-
