If you have any other Borghertz's Hands quest active, you must complete that one before you can start this quest!

Walkthrough

  • Travel to the Durable Shields shop and speak with Guslam located at (H-8) on Bard to begin the quest.
  • Curio Vendor Moogle sells Zvahl Coffer Key (please note Key Item "Rhapsody in Umber" is required).
    • Alternatively, you can farm the key or pick the lock as a Thief.
  • Go to Castle Zvahl Baileys
    • You do not need to be on Bard when opening the coffer.
  • You will receive a key item Old gauntlets from the coffer.
  • Return to Upper Jeuno and speak to Guslam. He will inform you he is unable to repair the gauntlets.
  • If this is your first AF, you must do the following.
  • Go to Port Jeuno and head to the crates near the AH and Jeuno Duty-Free Shop at (H-8).
  • Click on the ??? to receive a cutscene.
  • Travel to Castle Zvahl Baileys and go to (F-8) on the first map.
  • Click on one of the torches to spawn Dark Spark.
  • Once Dark Spark is defeated, examine the same torch you used to spawn it. You will receive the Key Item Shadow flames.
  • Return to Port Jeuno and examine the ??? again. After the cutscene, the quest is complete.

Two Additional Coffers

Guslam mentions that there is still armor scattered about Vana'diel. You can find two more pieces of armor by opening coffers in the following zones with the corresponding coffer key:

  • Crawlers' Nest - Choral Roundlet icon.png Choral Roundlet
  • Castle Oztroja - Choral Cannions icon.png Choral Cannions
    • These coffers are not required to complete the quest, therefore after you receive your hands the quest is "completed".
    • The quest must either be active or completed in order to receive these attire pieces.
    • You must have Bard as your main job when you open these coffers.
