Luck Rune

Horos Shoes, Lucky Eggs, 4Leaf Mandra Buds... an entire subculture exists around superstition, complete with its own rules and artifacts.

One superstition says "Find a penny, pick it up, and all day long you'll have good luck" (On Vana'diel, Crystals are more likely than pennies).

Luck Runes are one such location where you may be able to make your own luck*.

* Disclaimer: SE has always denies the existence of a Luck stat.

Luck Rune TL;DR

  • Lose 200g, get a crystal

Starting the mini-quests

  • Speak to Emila and pay her 200g to receive your fortune.
  • This starts two mini-quests that will not appear in your log.
    • A mini-quest involving Titles
    • A mini-quest involving Elements (this page)
  • You can return to Emila to have the fortune repeated.
  • You only repeat the mini-quests after both are completed, limited to once per day.
