As an avid Final Fantasy fan who has analyzed every game to completion, I was intrigued when rumors began circulating about an overpowered accessory in the upcoming FF16 titled "Genji Gloves."
My mind raced with speculation about its background and most importantly, its combat capabilities. Will it elevate my protagonist Clive to unmatched supremacy? I had to find out more!
In this guide, I will unveil everything there is to know about acquiring the legendary Genji Gloves and unleashing their tremendous power against the most formidable of foes.
Let‘s delve in!
Ancient Origin Story of the Gauntlets
According to texts found in temples east of Valisthea, Genji Gloves were forged over a millennium ago by a Master Blacksmith named Inazuma. He crafted them as a gift for a prominent Samurai warrior and imbued the gloves with otherworldly strength.
Their silver plating and blood-red inscriptions symbolize the traditional colors of prestige in eastern culture. Historical scriptures also suggest the gloves were involved in unifying warring factions under a peaceful banner.
Eventually, traveling merchants carried these fabled gauntlets towards the western realms. Here the gloves changed many hands until finally arriving in the land of Rosaria for Clive to discover.
I can only imagine the surge in power once those gloves clamp around Clive‘s palms!
Acquiring the Legendary Equipment
Now comes the pressing question – how can you add Genji Gloves to your inventory? Well, the process involves gathering substantial amounts of Renown to purchase them:
Renown is a unique currency earned by completing quests, slaying Marks and finishing story chapters. The total required for the gloves is 2,395 points – a lofty number!
Here is a data table outlining the major Renown farming methods:
| Activity | Renown Earned |
|---|---|
| Main Story Quests | 50 – 200 |
| Side Quests | 100 – 500 |
| Regional Subquests | 50 – 350 |
| Hunting Marks | 250 – 1500 |
As the stats show, hunting notorious marks grants the highest Renown rewards. I suggest tracking down the deadliest marks like Slogurt the Brine-Guzzler and Gilded Pointer to stack points quickly.
Once you have 2,395 Renown, head over to Patron‘s Whisper shop near the Alliant Reports stand in The Hideaway area (refer to this zone map below):
