“In from the Chilly” is a stage 83 MSQ quest in Ultimate Fantasy XIV: Endwalker, which includes you enjoying not as your self however as an Unknown Imperial who must get again to Camp Damaged Glass inside a specified time restrict. It’s a difficult quest but in addition extremely memorable.  

To finish “In from the Chilly”, you’ll must make your method again to Camp Damaged Glass very slowly, navigating the unfamiliar Garlean streets whereas attempting to keep away from as a lot battle as attainable. I’d suggest setting apart roughly 45 minutes to an hour to finish this quest.

You don’t, by default, have any well being regeneration throughout this quest, though you’ll be able to not often discover potions that grant a five-minute regeneration buff. You can too discover Med Kits, which is able to restore 35% of the Unknown Imperial’s most HP, however you’ll be able to solely carry a sure variety of these at anybody time. Each of these things may be discovered by interacting with the various clickable parts encountered in the course of the quest.

Attending to know the Unknown Imperial

After you’re transported into the physique of the Unknown Imperial, you’ll lose your whole common skills and need to rapidly get acquainted with some new ones. For many who recurrently play as a Tank Job, notably Paladin, these might be acquainted:

• Battle or Flight:
  • Will increase weapon injury by 25% for 25 seconds. Has a 60-second cooldown.
• Quick Blade:
  • A sword weapon ability that executes an assault at 200 efficiency. 
• Riot Blade: 
  • Offers injury to a single goal with 170 efficiency, rising to 300 efficiency when used after Quick Blade.
• Rage of Halone:
  • Paladin Job ability which delivers an assault with 100 efficiency, rising to 330 efficiency when used after Riot Blade.
• Rampart:
  • Reduces incoming injury by 10% for 20 seconds. Has a 90-second cooldown.

Surviving your first enemy encounter

To start with, you’ll solely have a time restrict of 25 minutes to achieve Camp Damaged Glass, though this can change as you progress by means of the search. Whilst you ought to keep away from as a lot battle as you’ll be able to throughout this quest, some enemies should be fought, and the primary one is simply forward and to the East.

Essentially the most difficult a part of this primary battle is the truth that you don’t regenerate well being, so the most important piece of recommendation I can provide is to keep away from any telegraphed assaults and ensure you use Battle or Flight and Rampart at any time when they’re accessible. 

When you’ve defeated this soldier, work together together with his corpse to discover a Med Equipment and use it to revive a few of the well being you misplaced in the course of the battle, then work together with it once more to pay your respects.

After this encounter, you’ll be warned that in an effort to survive, you’ll must keep away from any undesirable consideration. With this in thoughts, you now must discover a method out of the primary space you end up in. 

Get the Magitek Reaper in working order

Head South and work together with the Immobilized Magitek Reaper (X:23.6, Y:16.9). Doing this can mean you can progress by unlocking the subsequent two issues it’s good to do. Whilst you’re within the space, be sure to work together with the Wrecked Magitek Reaper (X:25.4, Y:16.5) to loot a Med Equipment.

Subsequent, head to one of many buildings to the West of the Immobilized Magitek Reaper and work together with him. He’ll provide the identification key required to make use of the Immobilized Magitek Reaper, however you’ll want some gasoline should you’re hoping to get it working once more. 

To seek out the gasoline, within the type of a Ceruleum Tank, head to the East and discover the Gasoline-concealing Wreckage (X:27.4, Y:13.4). Interacting with this wreckage will offer you a Ceruleum Tank, however this poses an issue – you’ll enter into Transporting mode and, whereas carrying the Tank, you’ll be unable to make use of any of the Unknown Imperial’s skills.

When you take any injury whereas Transporting the Tank, you’ll drop it and need to defeat the menace. When you’ve finished this, you’ll be capable to decide it up once more and proceed onwards in the direction of the Magitek Reaper. Work together with it whereas holding the Ceruleum Tank, and also you’ll now have a completely operational Reaper.

Use the repaired Magitek Reaper to clear the way in which forwards

Now that you should utilize the Reaper to help you in your journey again to Camp Damaged Glass, you’ll have three new skills to grow to be aware of, all of which do 5,000 injury every and are sufficient to one-shot every of the enemies you’ll encounter in the course of the coming sequence:

• Magitek Cannon
  • Floor-target AoE with a brief forged time and no cooldown.
• Diffractive Magitek Cannon
  • Line-attack AoE, which has a brief forged time and a brief cooldown.
• Excessive-power Magitek Cannon
  • A a lot bigger AoE variation of Magitek Cannon, which has a brief cooldown.

There might be a number of mobs of Magitek models which should be defeated. A few of these will are available in waves, that means you’ll want to concentrate and alter your self accordingly:

• Giant mobs of models to the West, in entrance of the curtain of sunshine blocking your method. Any assault is suitable to take these out fairly effectively.
• Mobs of 5-7 Magitek Slasher models within the heart of the world. Use Magitek Cannon to focus an assault to take them down.
• Magitek Vanguards which spawn and use telegraphed skills, which should be averted earlier than taking out the Vanguards. The bigger, Excessive-power Magitek Cannon is ideal to defeat these.
• Magitek Demise Claws will slowly strategy in a line. Use Diffractive Magitek Cannon to take out the road in a single shot.

When you’ve defeated all the totally different waves of enemies, you’ll be capable to dismount the Magitek Reaper and make your well past the now-disappeared curtain of sunshine. When you’re by means of, two Tempered Imperial Troopers will seem, however these may be averted fairly simply by merely strolling behind them to keep away from drawing consideration to your self. 

Make your method South after which West, transferring below the damaged segments the place a bridge was once, to get to the subsequent problem. 

Defend the Imperial Residents

There’s numerous native wildlife within the subsequent space who’re attacking some Imperial Residents. You’ll must defeat these creatures whereas persevering with your journey North West. Fortunately, you’re unlikely to attract any aggro from these creatures as they’re fairly centered on their authentic targets, so you’ll be able to take them out fairly simply. 

The sorts of enemies you’ll must defeat are:

• Morozko
• Ceruleum Zoblyn
• Almasty
• Eblan Bear

Whilst you can battle these creatures in any order, I’d suggest taking out the larger ones first, as they’re prone to do extra injury to the individuals you’re attempting to guard. You’ll even be helped by another civilians.

After defeating the creatures and heading additional North, you’ll encounter some extra enemies. This time, you’ll need to defeat some Corrupted and Remodeled Imperial Troopers. The very best technique to do that is by focusing your consideration on the Remodeled Imperial Troopers, as a result of the civilians with you’ve gotten entered a Magitek Reaper to tackle the Corrupted Soldier. 

In some unspecified time in the future throughout this battle, the Corrupted Imperial will explode with a telegraphed AoE. You’ll be able to keep away from demise by discovering the protected spot behind the Magitek Reaper and sheltering there, however you gained’t get out of this unscathed.

Drag your self to security 

The blast from the Corrupted Soldier will render you unconscious for a short time, with the display screen going black. Don’t fear, you haven’t failed, this was alleged to occur. 

Once you get up, you’ll instantly be thrown into an Lively Time Occasion. Throughout this, you’ll must rapidly and repeatedly press any button you’ve gotten at your disposal in an effort to stay aware and drag your self away from the battle. You begin off going very slowly as you’re weighed down with debuffs, however as these drop off you do decide up some velocity. Fortunately, you don’t have to do that for your entire distance to Camp Damaged Glass, simply to the tip of the road. This will take roughly ten seconds, so keep away from hand cramps by alternating arms. 

When you’ve accomplished the Lively Time Occasion, a cutscene will play and then you definately’ll get up in your individual physique, free to speak to Alisaie in an effort to full “In from the Chilly”.
