The Pearl of Flames is a rare resource that you can obtain in Final Fantasy XIV. Unlike the other resources you can gather, this one requires you to complete a specific piece of content. If you don’t have a character strong enough to undergo these encounters, you may want to wait and see if you can level up and then complete it with some friends. This item creates the Infernal Archfiend Cloak and the Flamecloaked Barding. Here’s what you need to know about how to get the Pearl of Flames in Final Fantasy XIV.

Where to find the Pearl of Flames in Final Fantasy XIV

You have your work cut out if you’re trying to find the Pearl of Flames. It only drops from the Mount Ordeals (Extreme) trial and comes from the weapons from this encounter.

Before you can try competing in this difficult trial, make sure to complete the standard version by progressing through the Main Scenario Quests into 6.3, and the regular Mount Ordeals trial is a requirement to reach the end of this section. Upon completing this encounter, return to Old Sharlayan to speak with the Wandering Minstrel, who unlocks access to the Extreme version.

When you complete the Mount Ordeals (Extreme) trial, there are a handful of items you can receive. There’s a chance you can receive the Flamecloaked Weapon Coffer, containing one of the Flamecloaked weapons, exclusively for this trial. Unfortunately, you will be competing against the other players who also participated in the encounter, so you will need to roll better than they did to ensure you walk away with this loot. There’s a good chance that won’t happen, so you’ll need to complete it again and have better luck.

Alternatively, suppose you continue not receiving the weapon coffer, but you have plenty of Flamecloaked Archfiend Totems from completing this trial. In that case, you can purchase any Flamecloaked weapons featured on the Nesvaaz vendor and grab them, repeating the process. This does take a bit more time, but you are guaranteed to receive the weapon, and your Pearl of Flames, this way.
