Walkthrough
This quest is started automatically after completing the previous quest, Chasing Shadows.
- Zone into Jugner Forest from Batallia Downs (present, not past, which you will already be in after finishing the previous quest) for a cutscene.
- Examine the Metallic Hodgepodge in Jugner Forest at (F-9) for a cutscene. (Near the F-9/G-9 border, in the center of the grid at the base of a tree.)
- From the Planar Rift at (F-9), go SE up the hill
- Zone into Ghelsba Outpost for a cutscene to receive the
Orcish infiltration kit needed to enter the BC.
- Quick travel options:
- Teleport NPC Domenic in Lower Jeuno (J-7) will warp you there for 750 Gil.
- The Fort Ghelsba Survival Guide is right next to the zone.
- Use the Home Point to Yughott Grotto and cast Escape. This will leave you at the entrance to Ghelsba Outpost from West Ronfaure.
- Extra Orcish infiltration kits are available from Clandestine Marking at Ghelsba Outpost (I-10).
- Quick travel options:
- Examine the Scrape Mark in Yughott Grotto at (G-9) on Map 1 for a cutscene.
- Examine the Scrape Mark again to enter the BC Face of the Future.
Note: Drawing your weapon will immediately start the battle, regardless of your distance to the target.
Your opponents in this battlefield are a Fangmonger Colossus and 6 Tombstones, all statue type mobs. At the start of the battle, you will be assisted by Excenmille and Maxcimille. Part way though the battle, Bostillette will join the fray.
- You only need to kill Fangmonger Colossus to win.
- Each Tombstone defeated will weaken the Colossus' damage resistance.
- The Colossus and Tombstones use the weaponskills Seismostomp which does damage and Numbing Glare which is a conal paralysis move. They all have very slow movement speed and can be easily kited. The enemy also seems to respawn a few as the fight continues.
- Kiting the statues while keeping the NPCs cured is a very easy way to win this battle, it has been won with three, two, and even one character in this manner.
After the battle, examine the Cavernous Maw in Batallia Downs at (H-5) for a cutscene and to receive your reward.
- This Cavernous Maw must be unlocked in the past before the cutscene will play in the present day.
- Quickest way there is to use the Batallia Downs Survival Guide.
- If you have a full inventory at the time of the final cutscene, you will be prompted to examine a ??? near the maw in Batallia Downs (S) after you make space in your inventory to receive the Griffon Ring.
- You may now speak to Rholont in Southern San d'Oria (S) to learn Trust Magic: Excenmille (S) if you possess the Bundle of half-inscribed scrolls.
If you are working on missions then return to Adieu, Lilisette.
