Relic... Furniture? What?

Okay so, looking over the patch notes, I see this quest:

"Kettle to the Mettle"
Disciple of War or Magic level 50
North Shroud (X:29.5 Y:19.6)
NPC: Jalzahn
Players must complete the side quest "The Vital Title."

So obviously you can only start it once you complete a 2.0 relic.

Looking even more, I noticed:

-"Ultimate Kettle"
Outdoor Furnishing
Unlike other kettles of legend, it cannot turn water to ale, nor is it bottomless. But it can boil water for tea in a count of sixty.
※One per estate only.

-"Ultimate Kettle Zenith"
Outdoor Furnishing
It can boil water for a quality blend of tea in a count of thirty. And it glows with a strange light. Everyone knows that strangely glowing objects are likely made of legends.
※One per estate only.

-"Ultimate Kettle Nexus"
Outdoor Furnishing
A true kettle of legend that shines with such brilliance that it is said even gods would beg for a sip of its contents. It can boil water for a premium blend of tea in a count of five.
※One per estate only.

So... we're getting relic furniture now? Has anyone seen any extra info on this, or did FF11 have any kind of items like this? I'm just completely intrigued by how silly this seems, or what the furniture will even do, or... really this whole weird (in a good way, imo) idea.

well yeah what do you think we have been makeing our anima for? better made in to funiture than going to waiste i guess...

Dev team mentioned having a kettle furniture awhile back and hinted at it being a relic furniture

Wow... a glowing kettle? Even furniture become relic :eek:

Up against the final boss in the entire game? Hang on, let me just bring my... relic sofa.

You fool you're going to ruin the entire run! How are you going to bring your relic sofa and NOT the matching relic ottoman?! As a PLD you should know better... git gud, noob.

:P

Hahaha, I didn't see the furniture which matched when I read the notes. I'm intrigued.

Q: I’d like to suggest a kettle as furnishing to boost the live feeling. Do you have any plans to add the kettle that is being made by Gerolt to support his livelihood?

A: This was an interesting question we saw beforehand and on a rare occasion asked the development team to answer it before the show. It seems like they are already making this, and we received the following comment from the lore team:

"As you may know, Gerolt repairs kettles to pay off his debts at the bar. He enjoyed this so much that now he's on a mission to make the "Ultimate Kettle." But, it's no easy task to forge the Ultimate Kettle suitable for this legendary weaponsmith. We have rumors of it making its way to implementation, but given that it's the Ultimate Kettle tinged with soulglaze, it's like not going to easily obtained… We hope you look forward to it!"

I hope it come with crafting buff for lv 60 DoH classes ^^

I've wanted one of Gerolt's kettles since ARR and the fact that it's a "relic" makes it even better. I can't wait to see this thing.

Well... Relics are usually stuff that stand protected and clean on stands surrounded by glass for people to look at...
Not something any thug would have as their favorite baseball bat to play golf with.

So in a way, relic furniture does make more sense...

I would hope there's a full eight piece furniture set that requires everybody in the raid to bring something.

Let's try to think smart here. This kettle might give awesome buffs! :D

I love it :D
Gerolt has always been trying to make that ultimate kettle, and I think it's wonderful we finally get to help? him with it, to the point where we get the chance to put it into our home once he actually does finish it.

It's just another one of those silly things that perfectly balance the constant epic seriousness and horrible grind to create the perfect FF recipe ;)

There was also a line in the relic quest chain were gerolt said something like "and what would I do with more soul glaze? Make a bleeding relic ketlle? !"

What's funny is, as furniture, this will have more lasting impact on the game than Relics, Zodiacs, or Anima weapons... A year from now, you'll still see these kicking around peoples yards, but the weapons? Glamoured Replicas, meanwhile the actual weapon has be burned as part of a quest or something...

im actually...really looking forward to this
to a degree that weird's myself out
