Ff14 How to Get From Black Shroud to Limsa Lominsa

November 26, 2021

"The Feast of Famine" questline is known to be one of the most tedious quests of Final Fantasy 14, often taking days to complete. The basic plot is to catch living legends, some of the rarest fish out there, and present them to Wawalago in Limsa Lominsa.

To begin, there are two requirements. First, you must be a level 50 fisher. Next, you must complete the quest "The Beast of Brewer's Beacon" from Sisipu in the Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks after becoming a level 50 fisher. Once that is done, "The Feast of Famine" can be picked up from Wawalago at Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks (X:8.1, Y:15.3).

The first quest objective is to capture living legends fished in La Noscea, the Black Shroud, and Thanalan. Good luck, as these fish have a ton of requirements involved in terms of the time of day, weather, and mooching.

Before catching these fish, make sure you have good level 50 fisher gear. The higher it makes your perception, the better. In fact, it is highly recommended to eat food to get a stat boost while fishing for these legends. Lastly, make sure your gathering points are at 397 or higher.

Note: These fish do not need to be caught in a particular order.
