During the past expansions, Square Enix has brought many improvements to the Player vs. Player content of FFXIV. While in the past, people only queued to these activities for quick experience gains, nowadays, people dive head first to get currency to buy some of the game’s best cosmetic items. If you want to collect all the PvP gear released with each update, here we’ll tell you how to get Trophy Crystals in FFXIV in the most efficient way.
How to Grind Trophy Crystals in FFXIV
The best way to get Trophy Crystals in FFXIV is by doing PvP content. But some instances reward more experience to get this currency faster. Before we delve into that, remember that obtaining Trophy Crystals is only possible through leveling up your PvP Series level. To do so, you’ll require PvP Series Experience. With that out of the way, here’s the content we recommend running:
- Daily PvP Roulette
- Crystalline Conflict Casual Matches
While you can queue to individual activities, it’s much better to try these two. You can only get rewards for the Daily Roulette each day; however, you can spam Crystalline Conflict matches and get the same rewards. It’s important to remember you can also get some good Series Experience if you lose; still, we recommend you give it your all to get as much experience as possible.
