Walkthrough

Travel to the Durable Shields shop in Upper Jeuno and speak with Guslam located at (H-8) on Thief to begin the quest.

  • Go to Davoi, then travel to Monastic Cavern, and locate a Treasure Coffer.
  • Either obtain a Davoi Coffer Key to open it, or pick the lock.
    • You do not need to be on Thief when opening the coffer.
  • You will receive Key Item Old gauntlets from the coffer.
  • Return to Upper Jeuno and speak to Guslam inside the Durable Shields shop. He will state he's unable to repair the gauntlets.
  • If this is your first AF you must do the following, otherwise skip these steps:
  • Go to Port Jeuno and head to the crates near the Auction House and Duty-Free Shop at (H-8).
  • Click on the ??? toolbox atop the crates to receive a cutscene.
  • Travel to Castle Zvahl Baileys and go to (F-8) on the first map.
  • Click on one of the torches to spawn Dark Spark.
  • Once Dark Spark is defeated, examine one of the torches for Key Item Shadow flames.
  • Return to Port Jeuno and examine the ??? again. After the cutscene, the quest is complete.
