Beyond collection, minions are a valuable Gil source via the Market Board and are crucial for the Gold Saucer's Lord of Verminion. After acquiring a new minion, remember to "Use" it from your inventory to add it to your summonable collection. Duplicate minions can be sold or traded.

Final Fantasy XIV Dawntrail and all previous expansions are available on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PS4/5.
