New Info From Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XXX Digest

Expect them from moogle rank-up quests, and possibly as rewards from MSQ or side quests (I think they gave out a variety of IV during the CT side quests back in the day).

That, and we have dirt cheap 170 gear that we can craft now.

To confirm what StouterTaru just said: Duty Commenced last week stated that Grade V Materia would be available from Rank-Up Moogle Quests.
Imagine it maybe in Room 7 of Aquapolis too.

Thanks for the info.

My prediction for Luminous Fiber is that:

- 1 Glass fiber will cost esoterics/lore (20nq/50hq)
- Meteorite (New gathering item for miner)
- Crystallized Sap (New gathering item for botanist)
- Light-Kissed Aethersand (Aethersand suggests desynthesis, my guess it has something to do with the screenshot below)

- Light-Kissed Aethersand (Aethersand suggests desynthesis, my guess it has something to do with the screenshot below)

Aethersand has always been obtained through Aetherial Reduction, which is something different than Desynthesis.

Ty & sorry, I meant Aetherial Reduction not desynthesis. Been lvling desynthesis on alt over the last few days so kinda stuck in my head ^^

Aetherial Reduction : a gatherer's version of Desynthesis that fortunately does not require skill points.
