Walkthrough

  • Zone into Bastok Markets (S) from North Gustaberg (S) for a CS and the key item Silvermine Key.
  • Check the Stonehoused Adit at northern part of (E-9) in North Gustaberg (S) for a cutscene.
  • Have your party leader check the Stonehoused Adit again and select the Fire in the Hole objective.
  • Everyone in the party needs to be on this mission and have the key-item (or have finished it), in order to be able to enter the bc.
  • Buffs do not wear off upon entering, so you can buff outside, full rest and go in.
  • You will be warped into the Ruhotz Silvermines.
  • Talk to Adelheid once inside and she will begin moving through the area.
    • Adelheid cannot be buffed, i.e. Protect, Shell, etc. but can be cured.
    • At least five times during the escort Adelheid will say something, stop moving, and Quadavs will converge on her. They will go straight for her and deal damage to her quickly.
    • Adelheid will not move from her spot if hit by the Quadav. However, in the 3rd wave of Quadav she will run when hit.
    • Adelheid will begin moving again immediately when all Quadav are defeated. If you leave the last [[Quadav[[ from a wave slept, she will not move so you can have time to rest and recuperate.
    • The first two times she stops, there will be only one group of Quadav.
    • The third and fourth times, there will be two waves of Quadav. On the fourth attack, the second wave contains one Magnes Quadav (BLM).
    • The fifth time you will be next to a Quadav Turret and at least three waves of Quadav will attack, the third of which contains three Magnes Quadav (BLM). Ignore the Turret, you cannot damage it. Focus on the Quadavs.
    • You cannot obtain another key item if you obtained your first one on the same game day. You must wait until the day changes in order for Solitary Ant to see that you are missing your key.
  • Zone into Bastok Markets (S) from North Gustaberg (S) for another cutscene. (Warping won't work)
  • Talk to Gentle Tiger (S) for a cutscene.
  • Talk to him again for another cutscene and your reward.

Strategies

Trio'd by a PLD/WHM, BRD/WHM, BLM/RDM. PLD/WHM healed NPC while using Yagudo Drinks for additional refresh. BRD/WHM would sleep mobs, throwing Ballad when possible. BLM/RDM also used Yag drinks and nuked Quadav with Thundaga III. Fights would ordinarily go: Quadav arrive, BRD sleep, Thundaga III, BLM sleep, Thundaga III and everything would die. On areas where there were BLMs, BLMs would be slept separately so BLM could full rest before finishing it off.
