FFXIV: How To Get The Nana Bear Minion?

Crafting is how you get the Nana Bear Minion.

It’s a Level 50 Weaver Recipe with four stars.

The Bear can also be bought from your Grand Company, which sells Material Coffer 3.0.

Each of these costs 20,000 Seals, and the Minion you get is a total surprise.

Even if you don’t Craft, you still have a chance of getting your Nana Bear.

For crafting, you don’t need specialized recipe books.

You just need the minimum stats and the materials, of course.

We can break down the Recipe here so that when the time comes, you’ll be ready to get your Nana Bear.

Recipe Tree is a useful tool that was added in Patch 5.1.

You can get it by choosing an item and clicking this menu item.

The bad thing is that it doesn’t really tell you where to get everything.

But don’t worry, we’ll explain it to you:
