Collecting the Patch 7.5 Rewards Now
Caprino, Junior Jinbei and Wind-up Prishe have continuing collection routes; Series 11 rewards need a different approach now that Series 12 is active. Patch 7.5, Trail to the Heavens, launched April 28, 2026. This guide focuses on its minions and emotes, with the later route for the fist mount shown in the official preview.
Choose an item before planning a grind. Duty loot, fishing, an earned PvP reward and a current reward track have different requirements; clearing the main story alone does not award this whole collection.
Four Minions, Four Different Starting Points
| Minion | Where to look | Collection limit |
|---|---|---|
| Caprino | The Clyteum: level 100, average item level 750. | Duty loot; also tradeable. A clear does not guarantee an item for each player. |
| Junior Jinbei | Ocean Fishing’s Ruby Route, Thavnairian Coast; see the source distinction below. | Fishing reward; tradeable. Do not budget a guaranteed catch. |
| Wind-up Prishe | Windurst: The Third Walk: level 100, average item level 755. | Duty loot; Unique/Untradable and Market Prohibited. |
| Little Blue Viking | Series 11 level 15 reward. | Series 11 earning ended in 7.56; already-earned rewards remain claimable during Series 12. |
The duty and trading details come from the linked Eorzea Database records; the community minion catalog records Little Blue Viking’s milestone. Junior Jinbei’s database entry includes first-person player reports identifying the Ruby Route’s Thavnairian Coast stop; that catch-location evidence is community reporting, not a publisher drop-rate statement. The 7.5 notes separately confirm that the new Ocean Fishing route requires completion of “Endwalker.”
For duty loot, unlock the activity and meet its entry requirements before arranging repeat runs. For a tradeable item, compare the Market Board option with the time you want to spend collecting it yourself; prices and availability vary.
Conduct and Cackle Use Different Unlock Items
| Emote | Unlock item | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Conduct — /conduct | Ballroom Etiquette - Orchestral Operations | Series 11 level 5. Check Previous Series if it was earned. |
| Cackle — /cackle | Ballroom Etiquette - Dignified Derision | Windurst: The Third Walk; the manual is tradeable. |
The item records identify the commands and the Cackle duty source. FFXIV Collect’s emote catalog records Conduct’s Series 11 level 5 milestone. Owning an unlock manual and learning its emote are separate steps: use the item, then find the learned action in the Emote window.
Conduct is the orchestral gesture shown in the preview. Cackle is a separate reward, so one manual does not unlock both commands.
Series 11 Has Ended: Claim Earned Rewards Before Series 12 Ends
The 7.56 notes ended Series 11 and began Series 12. They permit claims from Series 11 until Series 12 ends, with Series 12 scheduled to run until Patch 8.0.
- Open PvP Profile.
- Select Series Malmstones, then Previous Series.
- Claim the Series 11 milestones your character already earned.
- Use any awarded minion item or emote manual to register it.
This claim window does not let new PvP matches earn levels on the ended track. If you missed a milestone, do not start a new Series 12 grind expecting it to fill the older reward bar. No unannounced future reissue is promised here.
The Preview’s Fist Mount Is Rocket Punch
Rocket Punch is a Series 12 level 25 reward. The current mount catalog identifies that route and its 7.56 availability, while the publisher’s notes establish the active Series 12 window.
Its appearance on the wider 7.5 special site should not be read as an April 28 acquisition date. Build Series 12 progress for this mount and claim any earned Series 11 rewards separately.
Keep the Other Mount Routes Separate
The Wings of Nihility record lists The Unmaking (Extreme) as its duty source. For Wings of Legacy, the Tonawawtan Boy in Tuliyollal at X:15.3, Y:7.5 offers The Wing Spirit Cometh after the required story progress and seven Dawntrail wing mounts. These are different routes from PvP progression.
Alexandrian Axe Beak instead has a fixed 600-Faux-Leaf exchange with the Faux Commander in Idyllshire at X:5.7, Y:6.1. Faux Hollows is weekly, with a possible weekly retelling; it is not a daily currency farm.
Later content also has its own patch boundary: 7.55 delivered the Hildibrand and allied-society capstone additions, while 7.56 introduced Beastmaster. For that job’s separate challenge, see the Crucible rankings guide.
