Walkthrough

• Note: You must zone and wait until the next game day after completing the previous quest.
• Enter the palace in Ru'Lude Gardens.
• Zone into Sealion's Den for a cutscene and then speak with Sueleen to head to Al'Taieu.
  • You may receive a cutscene with Sueleen if this is your first time returning to Sealion's Den since your first visit to Al'Taieu. Zone back to Tavnazian Safehold and re-enter Sealion's Den for the correct cutscene with Prishe.
• Zone into the Grand Palace of Hu'Xzoi and click the entrance to The Garden of Ru'Hmet (Gate of the Gods) for a cutscene.
• Go to the Empyreal Paradox and check the Transcendental Radiance for a cutscene.
  • If you have the home point Lumoria → The Garden of Ru'Hmet → #1, just zone back out to the Grand Palace of Hu'Xzoi, warp to the home point and descend.
  • If you are on RoV you might encounter a cut scene after pressing Descend on the elevator.
• Check the Transcendental Radiance again to enter the BC against Eald'narche and Kam'lanaut.

Boss Fight

• This fight was initially uncapped at level 75. Level 99 players should have little to no difficulty with this fight.
• Trusts may be summoned inside this fight.
• In this BC you fight both Kam'lanaut and his brother Eald'narche at the same time.

Area	Boss	Abilities	Notes
Empyreal Paradox	Kam'lanaut Eald'narche	Kam'lanaut: Light Blade: Single-target high damage. Damage is reduced by kiting. En-spells : Earth Blade, Water Blade, Wind Blade, Fire Blade, Frost Blade, Lightning Blade. When he uses his En-spell, nukes of the matching element heal him. Great Wheel: AoE damage and Hate Reset. Eald'narche is a tougher version of the stage 2 boss from Zilart Mission 16. Vortex: AoE damage Terror. Stellar Burst: AoE damage Silence. Omega Javelin: Single target damage Petrification.	Kam'lanaut casts various debuff spells: Silencega, Slowga, Graviga, and Dispelga. Gravity is difficult to land on Kam'lanaut without Elemental Seal. Eald'narche has approximately 5000 HP. Eald'narche can teleport around the arena. Eald'narche casts all tier III -ga nukes including Bindga and Sleepga II. Eald'narche resists magical damage. Begin by kiting Kam'lanaut while everyone else goes all out on Eald'narche. Stunning Eald'narche's nukes is very helpful.

• See the Discussion page for testimonials.

• After defeating the brothers, speak to Aldo in Lower Jeuno (J-8) for a cutscene.
  • You must be Rank 5 or higher in your current nation to receive this cutscene.
• Zone and wait until the next Vana'diel day after completing the battlefield, then talk to Gilgamesh in Norg for a cutscene to complete the quest.
  • Changed as of the November 10th, 2021 Version Update to be the next Vana'diel day.
    • Not tied to when you might have talked to Aldo.

Reacquisition

• Follow this if you chose the wrong earring or want to get a different one.
• Drop your earring and proceed to the Empyreal Paradox (must be dropped before you zone into Empyreal Paradox).
  • The fastest way there is via the Home Point warp if you have it. Lumoria → The Garden of Ru'Hmet → #1 and descend.
• Select the ??? near the entrance and erase your memories; "I've already forgotten them" and "Yes, erase my memories".
• Recomplete Shadows of the Departed and Apocalypse Nigh to re-obtain an earring of your choice.
