How to get the Tin Sentry T1 minion in FFXIV

Another Final Fantasy XIV expansion, another near-endless chain of minions to acquire! Here’s how to get the Tin Sentry T1 in Dawntrail.

The Tin Sentry T1 minion is found in the level 100 Alexandria dungeon in Dawntrail

In order to acquire the Tin Sentry T1 minion, you’ll need to reach level 100 and progress with the Dawntrail Main Story Quest until you reach the Alexandria dungeon. You’ll know you’re getting close if you’ve completed the “Leafing through the Past” Main Story Quest.

Once you’re there, your next task is to complete the dungeon and clear the final boss: the Eliminator. That boss can drop the Tin Sentry T1 minion upon defeat, but you’ll have to roll on it. Consider going in with a manual party that doesn’t mind rotating rewards if you want a guaranteed shot of getting it.

For those of you who are curious, you can find the full lore breakdown of the Tin Sentry T1 minion below. It’s worked into the story effortlessly!

“This toy soldier was popular centuries ago in the Alexandria of old. Legend has it the Living Sphene was gifted one by a child she met when she had snuck into town, and it became the basis for the design of the mechanical soldiers that were developed shortly thereafter.”
