Where to find the Lapis Manalis dungeon in Final Fantasy XIV

The Lapis Manalis dungeon is tied to the Main Scenario Quest in Final Fantasy XIV. These are the main story quests you need to play with a character to unlock various pieces of content, making it possible to explore more and unlock content. Therefore, if you want to progress further in Final Fantasy XIV’s 6.3 updates and any future ones, the Lapis Manalis dungeon is required, and you must complete it at least once.

All players will gain access to the Lapis Manalis dungeon after they reach the King of the Mountain Main Scenario Quest. This is a quest unlocked in Patch 6.3. A handful of quests appear before it, such as Once More unto the Void, A Cold Reunion, Kindled Spirit, and An Unforeseen Bargain. The King of the Mountain will appear shortly after completing An Unforeseen Bargain, and the entrance to Lapis Manalis will appear during this quest. After finishing this dungeon one, it will be added to your rotation of dungeons you can complete at level 90.

You can proceed through this quest with a small group of companion NPCs from the main story or complete it alongside a small band of player characters. The choice is yours, but you receive more loot and drops when working alongside players.
