Voidwatch alarum |
Note: This is the first in a line of quests revolving around the mini storyline/battle content Voidwatch.
- Prior to participating in this Quest, players must fulfill the requirements listed below.
Preparation
- The player must have entered Walk of Echoes via the Veridical Conflux in Xarcabard (S) at (H-9) at least once.
- Complete each starting city's Voidwatch climb by defeating each of the 4 Stratum Abyssite tiers' NMs, and obtain the title from the Boss NM for that path. To do so, first you'll have to obtain the initial starter-city Abyssites from Voidwatch Officers in their respective cities:
- Note: Be sure to return to any Atmacite Refiner to analyze and upgrade Abyssite after defeating the monster(s) for each tier below.
- It may be beneficial for your time to purchase a stack of x99 Phase Displacers if you have "Rhapsody in Mauve". These greatly weaken Voidwatch monster's HP and overall strength. With trusts they are not needed on anything lower than Tier IIIs for this first quest and fights, however, you will find them useful to have later on.

- Title obtained: "Voidwrought Deconstructor".
- Once the above requirements are completed, you can actually begin the Quest!
Walkthrough
Further Preparations:
In order to flag Cait Sith which in turn enables the 2 Veridical Conflux mentioned below, you will need to complete any 4 past National Quests (no mix and matching allowed) of the following:
- - San d'Oria (S): Knights of The Iron Ram ➞ Steamed Rams ➞ Gifts of the Griffon ➞ Claws of the Griffon.
- - Bastok (S): Republican Legion's Fourth Divison ➞ The Fighting Fourth ➞ Better Part of Valor ➞ Fires of Discontent.
- - Windurst (S): The Cobras ➞ Snake on the Plains ➞ The Tigress Stirs ➞ The Tigress Strikes.
Once a single Quest-line has been completed, touch any of the 3 Cavernous Maws outside Jeuno in the past to get a cutscene for Cait Sith (Mission). You will receive the title "Cait Sith's Assistant" when it finishes.
- Note: Present day Maws surrounding Jeuno can also be used, provided you have unlocked them beforehand.
- If you have not unlocked these Maws, your only present-day option is the randomly-generated zone that you first landed into during the previous mission.
Now you will need to travel to Xarcabard (S). You can reach it from this pathway:
- Batallia Downs (S) ➞ Beaucedine Glacier (S) ➞ Xarcabard (S).
- The campaign warp to Beaucedine Glacier (S) places you near the survival guide if you're missing it.
- Note that campaign warps are unlocked for each map that you've entered before.
- Warping to Batallia Downs and using the maw to reach Batallia Downs (S) puts you near the zone line for Beaucedine Glacier (S) if you've never entered the zone before.
- Be sure to collect the Survival Guide in Beaucedine Glacier (S) and the Home Point in Xarcabard (S).
- The campaign warp to Beaucedine Glacier (S) places you near the survival guide if you're missing it.
- Once in Xarcabard (S) find the Veridical Conflux located near the Home Point for a cutscene and to acquire Kupofried's medallion.
- Note: if you try to skip this step you will have to return here.
Now travel to Pashhow Marshlands (S) and click on the Veridical Conflux located near the Pashhow Gate Crystal in (J-9) to start a cutscene.
- Recall-Pashh or the nearby Survival Guide are both convenient options to get here.
After you receive the cutscene in Pashhow Marshlands (S) speak with a Voidwatch Officer in one of the three starting-Nations (past or present) to receive the Voidwatch alarum.
- Note: Do not forget the above step, it cannot be done at Jeuno or at any other external-cities Voidwatch Officer!
The Quest is now completed, and the next Quest Drafted by the Duchy is finally flagged.
