FFXIV Dawntrail: Shaaloani Bicolor Gemstones, all vendors and ranks

If you’ve undertaken the Shared FATE grind in Final Fantasy XIV and just finished up the third Dawntrail area of Yak T’el, it’s time to don your cowboy hat. We’re off to Shaaloani next, and there are some new rewards up for grabs. 

For completing the 66 FATEs needed to complete Rank 3 in Shaaloani, you’ll be rewarded with the opportunity to swap your Bicolor Gems for Turali Barding, among other things. 

How to shared FATEs work in Dawntrail?

If you’re expecting to do 88 FATEs in each area, mainly because you’re scarred from the grind in both Shadowbringers and Endwalker, then you’re in luck. The total number of FATEs in each area has been reduced by 20, and completing Rank 3 only takes a total of 66 FATEs now. I know this doesn’t seem like a lot, but trust me, it helps. 

Here’s how many FATEs you’ll need to complete to complete each Shared FATEs Rank:

• Rank 1 (6 FATEs)
• Rank 2 (20 FATEs)
• Rank 3 (40 FATEs)

Completing each Rank will unlock further items at the local Bicolor Gemstone vendor, and Gemstones are earned through completing FATEs – you’ll receive a minimum of 16 for each successfully completed FATE, though this number goes up depending on bonuses or appearances by the Forlorn or Forlorn Maiden. 

Where is the Gemstone Trader in Shaaloani?

The local Gemstone Trader for Shaaloani can be found closest to the Hnusatahwi Aetheryte. You’ll find all of the Gemstone goodies for sale from Mitepe (X:28.6, Y:30.8). 

Here are all of the items you can eventually purchase from her, along with how much they cost and which Rank you’ll need to complete:
