Impact

Final Fantasy 14: Stormblood: How to unlock Shisui of the Violet Tides

Shisui of the Violet Tides is a level-63 dungeon in Final Fantasy XIV's "Stormblood" expansion. To unlock it, head to the Ruby Seas and talk to an NPC named Kurenai to get a sidequest called The Palace of Lost Souls. This isn't part of the main quest, so you'll have to seek it out yourself.

Thankfully, the quest itself is simple. Just talk to the people the game says to talk to and you'll eventually unlock access to the dungeon. To see a full walkthrough of the dungeon, check out the video above.
