CatsEyeXI Systems/CoP Rings

From FFXI Wiki


Note: The previous method of trading to the door was removed and replaced by the NPC Livia in the 7-11-2024 update. This method also removed the ability to exchange rings for ones you didn't have.

Unlike on retail, you don't drop the ring reward from Chains of Promathia in order to exchange it on the server. If you have CoP rings from other methods besides completing CoP (like the now depreciated login campaign rewards or purchased with Ancient Beast Coins) and are now ready to claim your reward for completing CoP you'll have to do some extra steps to make this happen.

Since you normally can't have more than one CoP ring the system checks if you already have one and if you do it won't allow you to get another. This system was put in place to allow the player the obtain their reward even if they already have a CoP ring or two.

  1. Trade all of the CoP rings (one or two) you have to the Ducal Guard Livia just outside of the Marble Bridge, Upper Jeuno (F-7).
  2. Touch the door for a cutscene.
  3. Select the ring you don't already have as a prize (remember, you can't have two of the same rings).
  4. Talk to Livia again to retrieve your rings you previously traded to her.
