A Nocturne for Heroes steps
Before you can begin the event quest, you’ll need to have done two things:

If you’ve got both of these done, you’re good to go. Head to Ul’dah, The Steps of N’ald, and talk to Kipih Jakkya outside the Pugilists Guild in order to begin the first quest of the event, The Man in Black. Completing the event questline will reward you with the Lucian Prince’s attire.

How to get the FFXIV Regalia Mount
The Regalia Mount can be purchased by talking to the event NPC, Ironworks Vendor, within the Gold Saucer. You’ll need to purchase the ‘Regalia Type-G Title’, which costs 200,000 MGP.
How to earn MGP quickly
There’s a few different ways to earn MGP:
- Mini-games within the Gold Saucer, such as The Finer Miner or Moogles Paw
- Selling Triple Triad Cards
- Mini Cactpot
- GATEs
However, by far the most lucrative method for earning a lot of MGP quickly is by taking part in the weekly Fashion Report. You can get 60,000 MGP a week with little effort, so you’ll only have 80,000 MGP to make up in other ways before you can purchase the Regalia.
Other FFXV collab exclusive rewards
There’s a number of other rewards up for grabs via the Ironworks Vendor within the Gold Saucer or the Ironworks Hand in Central Thanalan.
Modern Aesthetics – Lucian Locks
Can be purchased for 20,000 MGP by talking to the same Ironworks Vendor who offers the Regalia.
Noctis Lucius Caelum Card
Purchased for 10,000 MGP from the Ironworks Vendor. This card can be purchased outside of the event, but it’s worth noting that the regular price is 200,000 MGP, so it’s absolutely worth getting within the event itself.
Orchestrion Rolls
There are a number of Orchestrion Rolls available as a part of A Nocturne for Heroes. These can be obtained by exchanging Unidentified Magitek with the Ironworks Hand (X21.5, Y18.0) in Central Thanalan.
Unidentified Magitek are earned through completion of the event FATE, ‘Like Clockwork’ and each Orchestrion Roll costs one Unidentified Magitek.
- A Quick Pit Stop Orchestrion Roll
- Apocalypsis Noctis Orchestrion Roll
- Hammerhead Orchestrion Roll
- Relax and Reflect Orchestrion Roll
- Valse di Fantastica Orchestrion Roll
- Veiled in Black Orchestrion Roll
