Walkthrough
- You cannot start this quest if you have another Weapon Skill Quest active. You must return to the person that gave said quest and quit it to start another.
- Speaking with Balasiel at (F-7) will grant you the key item Weapons Training Guide as well as the Spear of Trials. You will need to break the latent on the Spear of Trials before completing the rest of the quest.
- Breaking the Latent
- With the Spear of Trials equipped in your Main hand, you must fight Extremely Easy Prey or higher mobs, and perform Weapon Skills or close Skillchains to accumulate 300 "Trial Points".
Skillchain Level | Trial Points |

No Skillchain | 1 |
Level 1 | 2 |
Level 2 | 3 |
Level 3 | 5 |
- You'll know the latent is broken when the elemental resistances listed on the Spear of Trials description have disappeared from the elemental resistances in the equipment window. Your elemental resistances are listed underneath your equipped gear grid.
- Trade the Spear of Trials back to Balasiel. This will give you the key item Map to the Annals of Truth. You will be instructed to travel to Sea Serpent Grotto.
- Take Silent Oil with you and head to Sea Serpent Grotto. Make sure either you or someone in your party has a Sahagin Key.
- After entering the Grotto, head south into the first large room and take the southwestern tunnel. Continue to the south until you reach the Ornamented Door at (J-10). Unlock the door with the Sahagin Key and head south across the bridge. You will find the ??? to spawn the NM at (H-6).
- This fight is against Water Leaper, a pugil. It is weak to Ice and Lightning attacks. Once you kill it, re-examine the ??? to receive the key item Annals of Truth.
- Go back and speak with Balasiel to receive your reward.
