Faux Hallows

Relive harrowing battles of your past in the form of "Unreal" battles to create gripping tales you can share with a peculiar talking fox. Succeed and you will have the opportunity to play a special mini-game which offers unique rewards after talking to Painfully Ishgardian Man in Idyllshire (X:7.0 Y:5.9) and having completed the main scenario quest "Shadowbringers" and the quest "Keeping Up with the Aliapohs."

FFXIV Faux Hallows - Final Fantasy XIV
FFXIV Faux Hallows

Once per week, players may speak to the Faux Commander after completing an unreal trial to gain access to Faux Hollows.

The object of Faux Hollows is to reveal the illustrations hidden beneath one or more panels. Only eleven panels can be turned in total when playing. Successfully uncover illustrations and earn faux leaves, which can be exchanged for various rewards. The amount of faux leaves awarded differs depending on the size and nature of the illustration uncovered.

Uncovering a large illustration grants a retelling. With this reward, it is possible to complete an unreal trial and access Faux Hollows once more before a week has passed, making it a viable alternative to solely aiming for illustrations that grant a high number of faux leaves.
