Dominion

From FFXI Wiki

Were you looking for Domain Invasion?



Dominion is a battle system introduced in the Heroes of Abyssea add-on. It is exclusive to Abyssea - Grauberg, Abyssea - Uleguerand, and Abyssea - Altepa.

There are various aspects of the system, which are outlined below. The main purpose of the content is to obtain body and hand Empyrean Armor pieces.

To participate in Dominion, players can either defeat Notorious Monsters within Heroes of Abyssea zones, or take part in Dominion Ops which are a form of Quest.

Dominion Ops

Dominion Ops are a form of Quest based in the Heroes of Abyssea zones. Each quest targets a specific monster family in the area, instructing you to defeat five of them to clear the quest. This system is very similar to Fields of Valor.

Clearing a Dominion Op will place the quest on your "completed" list and award Experience Points, Cruor, and Dominion Notes. You may also receive an Empyrean Armor seal. Rewards vary based on the difficulty of the quest.

Each Op has a Difficulty level associated with it. This is indicated by stars - ★. Maximum difficulty is five stars - ★★★★★. Difficulty seems to be associated with how many of the target monster is being killed in the area at the time you are accepting a quest, along with the player's level. Level 99 players will never see more than 1-2 star difficulty. Exp/Cruor/Notes reward amounts are based on the difficulty of the quest when it is completed. Progress on an Op is kept through zoning out of the area as well as changing jobs.

To complete an Op, you must speak to any Dominion Sergeant in the zone after defeating the five required monsters of the family.

Upon completing an Op, there is also a chance at getting a random job's Hand seal or Body seal. The type you receive has no bearing on your character's job levels or current job.

Dominion Sergeants

To begin a quest, speak with a Dominion Sergeant in the appropriate Abyssean zone as outlined below. There are multiple different Dominion Sergeants in each zone, and each one offers their own unique Dominion Ops. See the tables below for a breakdown.

Augmented Gear
Key Item Battle Trophies are obtained from miscellaneous Notorious Monsters throughout Heroes of Abyssea areas. Only one trophy of each tier is shown in your Key Items, but the game keeps track of how many you possess. You can possess up to 30 of each tier at any time. If you currently have 30, any more NMs killed that would normally drop that tier will not yield a trophy.

Vouchers of a lower tier are able to be traded in to a higher tier, and vouchers of a higher tier can be traded for lower tiers. The ratio of conversion is 2:1 if you are trading up, and 1:2 if you are trading down.
