In this part of the video, the host discusses the return of the Yo-kai Watch crossover event in Final Fantasy 14, starting on April 24th at 1:00 a.m. PDT. During the event, players can obtain 17 weapons, 17 minions, and three mounts. To participate, players must pick up the quest from the Poor-Healed Youth NPC in Old Gridania’s Steps of N (coordinates X: 9.2, Y: 9.1). Players need to equip the Yo-kai Watch item physically on their character to proceed. The search function is explained to help returning players locate their Yo-kai Watch if it’s misplaced. Participation involves completing Fates in various areas to earn Yo-kai Medals, which can be used to purchase Minions from the Gold Saucer vendor. The first minion costs one medal, but subsequent ones cost three medals each. Medals are guaranteed drops for Fates completed with a silver or gold rating as long as the Yo-kai Watch is equipped.

In this part of the video, the speaker explains the process of farming for legendary Yo-kai medals in the game. They emphasize the importance of summoning specific minions in the correct zones to have a chance of earning these medals during Fates. A list of zones for each minion is provided to ensure players are in the right location. Legendary medals can be exchanged for weapons, with the first weapon costing five medals and subsequent weapons costing ten. To save inventory space, players can unequip the Yo-kai watch once they have all desired minions, as the watch does not affect the chance of obtaining legendary medals. Collecting 13 minions rewards players with the Whisper Go mount, while collecting 13 weapons provides the Whisker Aogo mount. The segment underlines this process as a time-consuming but community-engaging activity.
