    Doesn't matter, minion chance is the same regardless.

    They seem to do it for other minions too, like the Tiny Troll minion.

    Well at least it prevented me from the temptation of selling the minion for oodles of gil. I was lucky enough to get the minion on my first run that I just decided to do trust to see the NPC banter/dialogue.

    A lot of the minions have the Unique/Untradeable tag not for spoiler reasons, but to prevent someone from rolling when they already own it. It just seems to be one of the ways that they've tossed into various dungeons/raids/etc to keep people farming them forever so new players can have easier queues. It's been like this in the storyline dungeons for quite a bit now.

    The minion description you can only see if you own the minion and are looking at it in minion guide.

I'm actually surprised they don't put rare drop mounts or minions in the trials. You almost never see Innocence and it'll probably be the same for Hydaelyn, sadly.

    I think this is the real reason. If it was actually spoilers they were trying to avoid, then they did a really bad job with like 100 other minions that are tradeable.

    Literally all they have to do to resolve that issue is spoiler flag the text until the player has finished the 6.0 main story. Even mobile games like Genshin do such a simple thing.

    I wish it was on the market board too. Been trying for days and gave up to get my TV mount but now I'll try again and hope I'll get it soon.

    Took me 11 runs.
    The Starbird responds to these emote:
    • /handover = Flies over and feeds from your hand
    • /beckon = Flies toward you, turns, and perches on your shoulder
    • /pet = When flying, it will perform a loop

    The last chest can also drop an orchestration roll, https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...m/9af5f129926/ which is the music in the dungeon.

    If you read above... I already said I and others are just running it with trusts so we don't roll wrong if it does drop.

    That's helping no one else either.

    I'm at 62 runs now btw =(

    Also sorry for late response, I apparently hit my posting limit yesterday and didn't know that was a thing lol.

    Umm can you please edit? I don't think many of us wanted to know all that if we're trying to grind it and honestly just seems like you're showing off.
