Top 10 Rare Titles in FFXIV (And How to Get Them!)

Today we're looking at some of the rarest titles and attached achievements in the game. These aren't the definitive rarest, but a mix of rare and prestigious titles that people would actually like to have. Percentages are of all characters registered on Lalachievements, about 160.000. The actual percentages are probably lower, considering the average Lalachievements user is likely more hardcore than a lot of players.

I have a very rare title called FRC 2018 Finalist. Which was earned by competing and qualifying in a Feast PvP tournament, where I got to play on the main stage of fanfest in front of thousands of people. I got a free trip to Paris Fanfest, the title, and the cloud hair for doing so, only 20 exist, and will ever exist in EU and only 50 or so worldwide. I have had it on 99% of the time since I got it and it reminds me of a really fun and unique experience.

I was one of the 1st people getting the fisher "big fish" title for collecting all the big fish last summer. Man... the grind was so fun and awful at the same time. I missed server 1st by couple days😭

I'm one of the few players with High Roller. The only thing that makes the title truly rare is the 1 million from Jumbo Cactpot requirement. I started playing in 2015 when Heavensward released, and all the other requirements for the achievement I reckon I probably had knocked out in the first couple years of playing. But I only finished the Jumbo Cactpot achievement in January of 2021, nearly 6 years after starting the game.

With normal luck, you'll average about 5k from the Jumbo Cactpot every week, including the weeks where you win 4th prize (about 30% of the time). So if you play every week, it will take you roughly 4 years to hit the 1 mil, assuming you don't get lucky and hit 1st prize or 2nd prize multiple times. It took me a bit longer because I didn't play perfectly consistently, and also initially you were only allowed 1 ticket per week instead of 3, and the consolation payouts were lower.

It's a rare title but imo not an especially impressive one like Necromancer because you don't really have to be especially good at the game or dedicated to get it. And people who get 1st place on Jumbo basically just bypass the hardest part of the achievement.

While it may also not be as prestigious as the Necromancer, I have kept my “Of the Sixth Sense” title on ever since I got it since only 1.4% have it. Apparently accidentally stepping on 100 accursed hoards with no pomander of intuition seemed like a goofy/rare enough task.

I have High Roller. It took me 6 years of winning consolation prizes each week, even with Gold Saucer VIP Cards.

The percentages on FFXIV Collect are skewed and only really useful for seeing the rarity in relation to eachother. Actual percentages are inaccurate. The database of players the site uses to calculate % ownership are the players signed up to the site (roughly 50k members). Of course people who sign up to the site are naturally more interested and competitive about collecting mounts/titles than the average joe.

When you see a title is owned by 0.5% of players, in reality its probably more like >0.1% owned.

Current title I run that's fairly rare and grindy is The Emblazoned. You need the Sun's of Bozja achievement, getting all Zadnor Rays to 10, requiring 600, 000, 000 mettle and took me about 110 hours

Correction about "High Roller": the 100 Triple Triad tournament match wins you need are NOT from the small tournaments that you can do every 2 hours. Instead you need to get those 100 wins from the bi-weekly Triple Triad tournaments.

That may sound daunting, but since you can just play your matches against easy NPCs, it doesn't take that much time/effort to get the wins. You can only do 20 maches per tournament though, so you'll need to participate in them 5 times.

[Altearithe]

The rarest one I have is The Emblazoned. It wasn't hard to get, but a lot of people stop going through Bozja early on and the grind drives most away.

I'm currently working on Trinity, Big Fish, and Stormsworn.

I"m getting close to the Casino title now, and feel special since you mentioned it.
My Rarest Title is "Saint of the Firmament" by far. Only 330 people per world on average have this title. It was a limited event.
ON the Casino . I've got the Jockey and "first across" titles, the MGP on Mini Jackpot cards, and 500K on Mega Jackpot lotto. I've got the 1000 wins on triple triad, and 200 of the 312 cards. I've done the Gates requirement, and probably just need more jackpot luck on the weekly's to get through.

[nyeonii]

Just a quick correction: the triple triad tournaments start every 2 hours, but each one is available for 30 minutes. If you finish your tournament before 30 mins is up (which is not hard), you can actually re-enter the same tournament time. So you can actually complete 3-4 tournaments every 2 hours with this method.

The Hidden Canals of Uznair title is a truly heinous grind. RNG upon RNG upon RNG. I'm fairly certain it's the most time consuming achievement in the game by far, just because the success rates are so low.

[vbarreiro]

Love seeing people talk about Azure and Omega. As one of the second group in the world to get it, for a brief moment, I was one of 16 people in the world with it and that’s special to me.

EDIT: Oh shit nice that’s my clear video in there!

[vasilisvenompapadopoulos]

I got not too long ago the Ultimate Thrillseeker. Imagine, i was start hunting from Stormblood. Before even can't travel server. Now i am really close to the Victor mount.

Don't forget "The Fortunate" where you have to complete 10, 000 fates for the title. It's a bit insane to do that many fates.

[lynx]

To add to Hand of Creation, the rarest title you can obtain in the Firmament is Castle in the Sky. This requires you to get 500k as both crafters AND gatherers in Skybuilder Points.

Mahjong Master title is rather common in Asian servers, but rarer on Western Servers from my experience. But still difficult to get nonetheless.

Actually the rarest BLU title is the Blue Ranger as it requires you to complete all available dungeons, trials and EX as a full BLU team. Azure and Omega is rare but it's quite funny that it's less rarer than Masked of the Round (Defeat Thordan EX as BLU Sync Min Il).

Necromancer and Lone Hero is more common due to explosion of new players coming into the game. Difficult but not as intense as it used to be.

[Giltia]

The Necromancer used to be MUCH rarer before the Shadowbringers expansion. I believe around the time of Stormblood, there was... two people who had it?

[kosmosshift]

I’ve seen an alpha wolf before on my server dude’s been cranking pvp Since season 1. He even has the season one jacket that you get for placing in like the top 100. I don’t see them much around these days and sometimes hope that when I login and go to the wolves den he’s kind of hanging around somewhere

[BetaKeja]

Blue mages are not locked to playing with blue mages. They're locked out of duty finder, and the achievements require your party be only blue mages. But there's nothing preventing you from running a mixed group, you just won't get the achievements that way.

[zoruasnivy]

I collect Orchestrion Rolls and I always joke that the one tied to mahjong is the hardest one to obtain. I'll do it one day, I suppose
