  • 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.
