How To Get The Varsity Attire (Exciting Fiber)
To get Patch 6.1’s new and fashionable Varsity Attire in Final Fantasy XIV, players must collect a rare material known as Exciting Fiber.
The Varsity Attire is a collection of Glamour pieces in Final Fantasy XIV inspired by the “retro vibes” of Western high school varsity fashion. Introduced in Patch 6.1, this dyeable Glamour Set features a charming, delicate outfit with a salmon-pink top and milky dress. The Varsity Attire also has a dapper, masculine variant, where the design of the clothes would resemble a 50s male student. However, a fantastic feature about this duo-set in FFXIV that isn’t seen in many Glamour outfits is that neither of the Varsity Attire variant pieces is gender-locked. Such an attribute allows for more expression and creativity with both avatar genders.
Furthermore, the skirt version of the Varsity Attire offers a versatile headpiece that comes with removable eyeglasses that function as the “helm’s visor.” This beret-shaped cap also can be worn by the Viera race, a feature that isn’t very common when it comes to popular headwear in FFXIV. Keep in mind that the set’s glasses are registered as an essential part of the Varsity hat, meaning that wearing a Fashion Accessory such as the False Classic Spectacles will cause both lenses to awkwardly overlay each other.
The new Varsity Attire is a craftable set of apparel in Final Fantasy XIV that requires a Level 90 Weaver and a Craftsmanship Level of 2924. Naturally, the materials used to create the outfit and its variant will be end-game resources. Of the various items needed, one particular material required to make all pieces of the Varsity Attire is Exciting Fiber.
How To Get Exciting Fiber In Final Fantasy XIV
As its name implies, Exciting Fiber is an exceedingly rare resource in Final Fantasy XIV obtained from the instanced treasure Dungeon, The Excitatron 6000. This unique Treasure Hunt instance functions similarly to the Aquapolis, the Lost Canals of Uznair, or The Dungeons of Lyhe Ghiah. To enter The Excitatron 6000 in FFXIV, adventurers will need a Timeworn Kumbhiraskin Map. This item can be purchased from the Market Board for a high price or randomly discovered while gathering Level 90 nodes in Endwalker‘s regions.
Once deciphered, a Timeworn Kumbhiraskin Map turns into a Kumbhiraskin Treasure Map, a geographical sketch indicating where a potential Excitatron 6000 portal is located. Within this Dungeon, FFXIV players must try their luck at gaining a host of valuables and rarities, including Exciting Fiber. Once they’ve acquired the fiber, they can sell it for upwards of millions of Gil on their server or use it to craft the new Varsity Attire.
Final Fantasy XIV is available on PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam or Square Enix’s official website.
