{{Action infobox
[[Aetherial Reduction]] is a general action that allows the player to break down [[Collectable Items]] into [[Crystal]]s, [[Crystal|Cluster]]s and random rare [[materials]]. As of 3.0, there are 3 different levels of items that can be reduced, and what yields is based on the purity of 1-8. The higher the purity, the higher chance for it to yield rare items, such as [[Duskborne Aethersand]]. There are special types of Aethersand for [[Miner]], [[Botanist]], and [[Fisher]], being [[Landborne Aethersand|Landborne]], [[Leafborne Aethersand|Leafborne]], and [[Seaborne Aethersand|Seaborne]] respectively. Purity level does not affect the total yield, just the chance.

}} Aetherial Reduction allows the player to break down specific [[Collectables]] {{collectable}} into [[Crystal]]s, [[Crystal|Cluster]]s and rare [[materials]] called aethersand. The higher the collectability, the higher chance for it to yield aethersand. As of [[Patch 5.4]], hitting the max collectability of 1000 ''guarantees aethersand'', with a potential bonus amount. There are special types of aethersand exclusive to [[Miner]], [[Botanist]], and [[Fisher]], the first examples being {{item icon|Landborne Aethersand|x}} [[Landborne Aethersand|Landborne]], {{item icon|Leafborne Aethersand|x}} [[Leafborne Aethersand|Leafborne]], and {{item icon|Seaborne Aethersand|x}} [[Seaborne Aethersand|Seaborne]]. Aethersand is exclusively used in [[Endgame Gear Guide|endgame crafts]] from the [[Master Recipe Tomes]].
 
Beginning with [[Stormblood]] items, the different kinds of aethersand can also be purchased from the [[Scrip Exchange]] with Gatherers' [[Scrip]]. Additionally, [[Endwalker]] has added [[Prime Collectables]] that yield materials other than aethersand.

As of 4.0, '''the tables below are no longer accurate for 3.0 ephemeral nodes'''.  Each item reduced will now grant two items at each purity level: (1) crystals and (2) either clusters or aethersand.  The amount of crystals and clusters rewarded increases with each purity level (starting at purity 1), and the amount was substantially reduced from the original 3.0 yields.  Furthermore, each type of aethersand is now tied to a particular item level, and has a chance to be rewarded at purity 5+.  Level 56 items reduce to duskborne aethersand, level 58 items reduce to dawnborne aethersand, level 60 items reduce to leafborne/landborne/seaborne aethersand, and level 60 1-star items reduce to light-kissed aethersand.

Break down an item to its aetherial components.


— In-game description

Aetherial Reduction is an action unlocked by questing at level 56. It is available for any class or job. Aetherial Reduction allows the player to break down specific Collectables Collectable into Crystals, Clusters and rare materials called aethersand. The higher the collectability, the higher chance for it to yield aethersand. As of Patch 5.4, hitting the max collectability of 1000 guarantees aethersand, with a potential bonus amount. There are special types of aethersand exclusive to Miner, Botanist, and Fisher, the first examples being Landborne aethersand icon1.png  Landborne, Leafborne aethersand icon1.png  Leafborne, and Seaborne aethersand icon1.png  Seaborne. Aethersand is exclusively used in endgame crafts from the Master Recipe Tomes.

Beginning with Stormblood items, the different kinds of aethersand can also be purchased from the Scrip Exchange with Gatherers' Scrip. Additionally, Endwalker has added Prime Collectables that yield materials other than aethersand.

Unlock

Complete the level 56 quest Feature QuestNo Longer a Collectable by speaking to Lydirlona in Mor Dhona (X:22.3, Y:6.8). Player must be a level 56 or higher Disciple of Land.
