26.8 - Diadem - Looking for help!

[FarelTheGecko]

I am very eager to get into content that I missed, which is no longer relevant. One of those is Diadem, where the player can do Exploratory Missions. There's a bundle of Achievements for it in the Achievements menu, and I'd like to at least get the one for exploring all of Diadem. However the whole thing is sort of confusing to me, how all the rules work... My best guess so far is that you go to 14.5, 10.9 in Ishgard, buy a mission ceruleum voucher from Jaquoinie, and then get yourself into a que by talking to Aurvael, where you have 2 options:
-Trials of the Fury
-Trials of the Matron

Considering how Trials of the Matron has no restrictions on roles, I feel more confident in putting that one together. So if anyone is interested in seeing what Diadem was, or would just like to help out, I invite everybody to join in!

Ok so Matron is a gathering mission, you switch to a DoL when you enter and your mission progress bar is advanced by simply hitting nodes. Fury is a battle mission in which you're directed to certain enemies and otherwise participate in Fates until the next mission is available. Upon completing your 3 missions you receive a loot bag and are then free to access additional areas if you want to fight Notorious Monsters or gather from unspoiled nodes. If the weather changes to hyperelectricity then a portal opens to a raid area which is impossible to clear without a large amount of players.

Entry via Ishgard requires 8 people in the matchmaking queue and likely won't ever happen. Entry via FC workshop airships requires just a minimum of 2 people each holding mission ceruleum and you can clear a Matron mission slowly like that. Upon entry you start at one of 9 possible landing pads (maximum 9 parties = 72 players per instance when it was popular). It used to require aether currents but nowadays you can fly immediately and map the area achievement if you want to.

I see... well, the whole thing was a flop, so guess I'll ...... switch to a FC, which is actually alive to get this thing running. Thanks!

My fc does Diadem runs the last Saturday of every month. I'll do a search for your character when I'm on, to let you know the time

I would encourage you to join the Diadem discord:
https://discord.gg/H3gPBHG

Go to the registration channel and set your rank as Chaos (because Phoenix is part of Chaos DataCenter)
?rank Chaos

And use the Chaos channel to find out when they're going next. Chaos has had various successful runs of fury diadem without resorting to FC airships through this discord.
