Walkthrough
Travel to the Durable Shields shop and speak with Guslam located at (H-8) on Dark Knight to begin the quest.
- Go to The Eldieme Necropolis
- Churano-Shurano Windurst Waters (F-8), you can purchase a Permanent Key Item: Magicked astrolabe for 10,000 Gil. This allows you to open doors in The Eldieme Necropolis solo.
- Either obtain an Eldieme Necropolis Coffer Key or pick the lock as a Thief.
- You do not need to be on Dark Knight 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 time completing a Boghertz's Hands quest for any job, you must do the following:
- Speak to Deadly Minnow inside of the Durable Shields shop.
- Head to Lower Jeuno inside the Tenshodo area. Speak with Yin Pocanakhu at (J-8) and then trade 1,000 gil to continue.
- 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:
- Monastic Cavern - Chaos Flanchard - Monastic Cavern
- Castle Oztroja - Chaos Cuirass - Castle Oztroja
- 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 Dark Knight as your main job when you open these coffers.
