Walkthrough[edit]

  • Speak with Gumbah until he gives you the cutscene that starts this quest. He is located on the upper floor in Bastok Mines inside the house at J-7.
  • Make sure you check your quest log before heading to Palborough Mines.
  • Travel to the Palborough Mines (go from Port Bastok to North Gustaberg, and enter the mines at (K-3)). Head to the third floor. If you have the map for Palborough Mines, the third floor has a giant burn hole in the center.
  • Proceed to the boat at (H-8).
  • Get on the boat and pull the lever to zoning into Zeruhn Mines while on the boat to receive a cutscene and the Chaosbringer, a level 1 Great Sword for Warriors, Dark Knights, and Rune Fencers.
    • Anyone can pull the lever; you need only make the trip.
  • Kill 100 enemies with Chaosbringer equipped. It doesn't matter what you kill, as long as the sword is equipped and deals the final blow with a standard/critical melee strike.
  • Once you have defeated 100 enemies, take the blade to Beadeaux to unlock Dark Knight.
    • You can travel to Beadeaux as ANY job, not just Warrior or Rune Fencer. The blade does not have to be equipped; it must simply be in your inventory.

    • WEAPON SKILL KILLS DO NOT COUNT. Must kill with a regular or critical strike as stated above.

    • During Harvest Festival events in real-life October, the Wraith Bats that spawn outside the starter nations have only 1 HP, making them the ideal target for this quest.
