Race Specific Equipment - a/k/a RSE

The RSE sets are composed of gear specifically designed for each race. Many times, the gear is also limited by the sex of the player as well. This equipment typically attempts to compensate for racial weaknesses.

Not included in this article are swimsuits which, while often separated by race and sex, offer no meaningful stat bonuses and are mostly useful for lockstyle purposes. Swimsuits are normally obtained from Event Moogles during summer seasonal events.

Level 1 RSE

When you start the game, each level 1 character will start with the RSE for their race and sex. You may also purchase the gear at vendors in the home nations for those races. These sets lack headgear, which most sets do contain.

Purchased from Arachagnon - Northern San d'Oria (F-3)

Purchased from Proud Beard - Bastok Mines (K-8)

Purchased from Kucha Malkobhi - Port Windurst (E-7)

Level 27-33 RSE

Each week, a different magical pattern appears inside a treasure chest somewhere. Give it to Guttrix in Lower Jeuno and he'll reward you with a single piece of RSE, based upon your race and sex. For more information, see the quest The Goblin Tailor. The 27-33 RSE sets have stats designed to help "compensate" for the races' natural weaknesses in their stats. These sets are also lacking headgear, but the 4 parts of these sets can be stored at NPC armor storage.

The level requirements for this gear follow this pattern:

  • Body: Level 33
  • Hands: Level 27
  • Legs: Level 31
  • Feet: Level 29

As of the September 2025 Version Update, this equipment may now be purchased from a Curio Vendor Moogle by adventurers with Key ItemRhapsody in Umber.

Level 30 RSE Ammo

Dropped from a NM spawned by touching a ??? in either the Maze of Shakhrami, Gusgen Mines or Ordelle's Caves.

You can only spawn the mob if it is your RSE week as identified by Guttrix (The Goblin Tailor), and you are in the appropriate zone for the RSE. The Aroma Crawler will spawn in the Maze of Shakhrami, the Aroma Fly will spawn in Gusgen Mines and the Aroma Leech will spawn in Ordelle's Caves. The drop is not 100%.

Item Level RSE

During the Strange Happenings in Vana'diel event, Kirin, Fafnir, and Alexander will spawn in Ru'Aun Gardens, The Boyahda Tree and the Alzadaal Undersea Ruins, respectively. When defeated a Treasure Chest will spawn that contains a Kirin's Mane, a Fafnir's Scale, or an Iron Giant Shard as well as a copy of Lungo's Thesis. The crafting materials and your existing pieces of RSE can be synthesized at your local Synergy Furnace at Amateur skill. Note that the names of some items have been localized inconsistently with their lower-level incarnations. Hand and Leg Armor recipes were introduced in the March 2026 Version Update. Body and Leg armor recipes were introduced in the May 2026 Version Update.
