In Final Fantasy XIV’s 6.1 patch, a part of the Main Story Quest introduced new lore about Nixies, which are diminutive water familiars created by magic. But it’s not the first time we’ve seen Nixies in Final Fantasy XIV. In patch 5.4, we saw an oversized Nixies as dungeon boss.
With the surge in popularity of Nixies and the knowledge now that it was Y’shtola who first created the Nixie and their super-sized variant, many players are flocking to get their own Nixie familiar. Here’s how to unlock the Nixie Minion, Drippy, for yourself.

Drippy is arare minion dropfrom theMatoya’s Relict dungeon. Thislevel 80 dungeonis unlocked after progressing through the patch 5.4 post-Shadowbringers MSQ content. The Drippy minion drops in thefinal chest of the dungeon, after defeating the last boss, Mother Porxie. The Nixie is also the second boss of the Dungeon as an extremely large version of your potential new minion.
However, if you’re not wanting to wait until level 80 to get your new minion or just don’t want to run the dungeon, you’re able to alsobuy the Drippy minion on the Marketboard. Currently, it retails for around 5,000 to 25,000 Gil. However, this amount can vary depending on server and availability. Activate the Drippy minion by selecting it in your Inventory. And now, just like Y’shtola, you can summon your own Nixie minion!
