This is a record of the black mage’s AF5 weapon (Lv89 artifact weapon) “Asura’s Rod“.

Wow, it’s a mysterious wand that spins around!

Many black mage wands rotate.

In addition, you should be able to obtain this “Asura’s Rod” somewhere as you progress through the Endwalker story.

Three objects like magatama surround the rod.

Each of them has something like a round crystal embedded in it…

When set up, the crystal in the center and the edge of the magatama glow purple!

Then the three magatama pieces start spinning around the round and round rod.

Round and round… (I don’t think you can tell how it rotates with just a picture, so please check it out in the video below!)

If you look closely, the crystal part seems to reflect the surrounding scenery. By the way, the walls of the housing are shown here.

It’s different from our layout though.

Do not say!

And if you look closely, you can see that not only the magatama, but also the crystal in the center is floating.

It’s strange that it doesn’t stick. Is it because of magic?

A feather decoration is attached to the end of the handle, which is quite fashionable.

Dyed pattern

If you clear the Endwalker caster job quest, you will be able to dye.

Snow White

Dalamud Red

Honey Yellow

Olive Green

By the way, this “Asura’s Rod” sounds a little frightening, so I wonder if it’s about that god’s Asura?

It seems that the first appearance in the FF series was the rod equipped by Garnet (Dagger) in FF9.

Wow, hearing that made me feel like a cute rod!

Video recording

I recorded a video of how it rotates.

Norirow-san is really a simple thinker, isn’t he?
