Eureka

Introduction

Eureka is an instanced area made up of four islands with a maximum of 144 players per instance. You will have a series of quests to complete which will unlock based on your elemental level. You will gradually gain access to relic weapons and armor from Stormblood which will be useful for you to complete the dungeon on the last island with other players.

Level up

For the majority of your levels, the best is to complete the fates, and complete your Challenge Log.

Also use Potion of Harmony to increase experience gained.

Look for fates trains to follow the players who will make them appear, do not hesitate to communicate by shouting.

Outside of fates, if you meet players and want to group up with them, be careful not to have too big of a level difference between you, otherwise you might not gain experience when killing monsters.

One trick to gaining experience quickly is to use a mirror logo with Sprites.

Remove your equipment, move away from the Sprites to put a first mirror, once activated, get closer, refresh the mirror regularly to aggro the Sprites, they kill themselves with their attack which will be reflected.

You will not gain xp on Sprites if your level difference is too great.

To make a mirror you will need :

Protect L
Wisdom of the Ordained
Shell L
