What's your favorite leve or quest name?Follow

#1 May 06 2014 at 9:34 PM Rating: Good
We all love "It's not Lupus" but are there any other quest names or leve names/descriptions you've found?

A friend pointed out that all the quest names during the Easter event were titles from movies.

Right now I'm doing a quest called "Skillet to the Stars" which might be a very obscure Star Trek reference. The original Trek was pitched as "Wagon Train to the stars"

In the main scenario, "Big Trouble in Little Ala Mhigo" was a good one. I was looking at some GC leves recently and saw one at Moraby Drydocks called "Double Dose of Impin'". You see, an imp's love is very different from that of a square.

Oh god, there's so many... I like so many...

"One Pickman Enters" - an over-obvious thunderdome reference.

"The Pelican Briefing"

"The boy who cried Jackal"

"(I just) died in six arms tonight"

"What have you done for mead lately"

But my alltime favorite FATE name, despite hating the battle, my love for terrible b-movies and monster flicks can only let me select one as the ultimate fate name.

"Go, Go, Gorgimera!"

He picks up a magitek and he throws it back down ♪
As he wades through the buildings toward the center of town ♪

Oh no, they say he's got to go go go Gorgimera ♪
Oh no, there goes O'gomorro go go Gorgimera ♪

Did they really do that too? I've had Titan EX: "Quake me up before you O'Ghomoro" on my active quests now for a long time.

Or a reference to the Blue Oyster Cult song "Stairway to the Stars".

I love puns.

I guess I'm just one of those people.

Example: "A Grape Idea" (Cooking Levequest in Limsa).

The plethora of puns in FFXIV shows just how much of an awesome of a job the NA Localization Team did on this game; a lot of the puns we see in English would probably not be possible in Japanese and Vice-Versa. Also, a lot of NA/English Pop Culture references, movie references, etc.

Low level LL leve called "Ain't nobody got time for rats!"

MRD quest at 30 is a reference to a Skrillex song Rock and roll (will take you from the mountain) "Pride and duty (will take you from the mountain)". Also WAR quest at 40 "Curious Gorge goes to Wineport." Also Curious Gorge because reasons.

MRD quest at 20 "The Mountain that Strides" for obvious reasons.

"You cannot kill the metal" out of Horizon.

Most of the primal quest names.

LNC 25 quest "Questions and Lancers."

There's more, but that's all I can remember atm.

Not sure how anyone ever completes that.. Seems inherently unfair.

Came in here to post this one, cuz I'm looking at it right now.

Description
Forgemaster Brithael has had to take on more smithing than he can anvil.


Both the title and the description together was like a double-whammy to my sensibilities.
