"Final Fantasy 14" has amassed quite a number of achievements over the course of its decade. Some are as simple as playing through the story, leveling up a few classes, and completing an event or two, while others require hundreds of hours or years to acquire. It takes a lot of time and dedication to accomplish all of them, which explains why no one has ever achieved a 100% accomplishment rate. Until now, that is.
As GamesRadar discovered, a player on the game's Japan server became the first person to achieve all the achievements currently available in the game. This is according to a site called Lalachievents, which keeps track of all the game's collectibles. The feat appears to have been accomplished in late August, but was only revealed in the last few days through a post on Reddit.
This includes completing all five of the ultimate raids, which are considered the most difficult missions in the game, and participating in thousands of dungeons, raids, hunts, and PvP modes as different classes. If this wasn't enough, players have also successfully obtained all the Relic weapons throughout all expansions.
Perhaps the most impressive dedication, however, is the fact that players have succeeded in obtaining all the achievements associated with levequests. Once an effective recurring quest for gaining EXP, these days they are largely ignored because of more effective methods of level grinding. However, it takes at least seven years to complete all the accomplishments of a levequest, thanks to the time limit of the levequest.
Fortunately, Lalachievements does not track achievements that can no longer be obtained, such as seasonal event achievements or achievements that have been discontinued due to story or dungeon renovations. That said, it does not indicate how much effort was put into cleaning up the other achievements; the two that took second place in Lalachievement's rankings were the latest ultimate raid and the achievement of winning 1,000 times in PvP under a particular faction.
Our faithful Warrior of Light may have to get back to work in a hurry, however, as patch 6.5 will be released on October 3, adding three more achievements to the ever-growing list. The patch notes state that the achievements will be granted automatically if the requirements are met prior to the new update.
