*{{color|red|Note:}} If you did not already do so, speak with [[Cid]] (in [[Bastok]] - [[Metalworks]] - Home Point #1) to begin this Mission.
*Talk to [[Despachiaire]] at the [[Tavnazian Safehold]] Home Point #3 - Top Floor (K-10).
**You may need to speak with him multiple times as he offers more than one cutscene at this point.

====Southern Legend====
*Speak with [[Perih Vashai]] at (K-7) in [[Windurst Woods]] Home Point #1.

====Partners Without Fame====
*Travel to (H-11) on [[Bibiki Bay - Purgonorgo Isle|Purgonorgo Isle]] in [[Bibiki Bay]] and speak with the [[??? Warmachine]] for a cutscene
**You can reach [[Purgonorgo Isle]] by taking the [[Manaclipper]] in [[Bibiki Bay]] (H-7).
***You can use [[Unity Warp]] (Level 119) to bring you close to the Manaclipper dock.
***Speak with [[Fheli Lapatzuo]] on the dock to make sure you're going to the right island '''and''' ensure that you have tickets from [[Tswe Panipahr]] nearby.
**Alternatively, you can clear the first 4 [[Voidwatch]] NMs on the [[VW Op. 026: Tavnazian Terrors|Tavnazian]] path to gain a direct warp to the island, without having to have been there before. (recommended as you will be coming back later)
***'''Note:''' This may be difficult for new players. Use x5 [[Phase Displacer]]s to weaken the NM. See the [[Phase Displacer]] page for details.
***Speak with a [[Atmacite Refiner]] after completing the quest to teleport to [[Purgonorgo Isle]].
**Teleportation items such as the {{ItemIcon|Nexus Cape|22}} {{tooltip|text=[[Nexus Cape]]|tooltip=[[File:Nexus Cape description.png]]}} or {{ItemIcon|Custom Top +1|22}} {{tooltip|text=[[:Category:Swimwear|HQ Swimsuit Tops]]|tooltip=[[File:Custom Top +1 description.png]]}} which can teleport directly to [[Bibiki Bay - Purgonorgo Isle]] only allow you to teleport to zones you've already visited; you only need to visit [[Bibiki Bay]] to meet this requirement.

*'''(Optional)''': Head to (E-5) in [[Windurst Walls]] and speak with [[Yoran-Oran]] for additional dialogue.

====A Century of Hardship====
{{color|red|Note:}} While in [[Newton Movalpolos]], farm the {{ItemIcon|Gold Key|22}} [[Gold Key]]. This will save you some time later.

*Travel to [[Oldton Movalpolos]] and zone in for a cutscene.
**The [[Gusgen Mines]] [[Survival Guide]] will bring you very close to the [[Oldton Movalpolos|Oldton]] entrance.
*The next step is the BC at [[Mine Shaft 2716|Mine Shaft #2716]] and there are several options to get to the BC entrance. Any of the following options work (pick up the home point if you do not already have it):
**1) (Fastest) Take the Newton Movalpolos Home Point #1 (Places you right outside the Mine Shaft #2716).
**2) (Fast) Trade a {{ItemIcon|Snow Lily|22}} [[Snow Lily]] to [[Tarnotik]] at (K-10) in [[Oldton Movalpolos]] and he will warp you there.
***The [[Snow Lily|Lily]] can be purchased from the Auction House ([[File:Auction House 16.png|link=]] ➞ Materials ➞ Alchemy) or dropped from [[Uleguerand Tiger]] in [[Uleguerand Range]].
*** If you chose this option, make sure to get x2 [[Snow Lily|Lilies]], as you'll have to come back one more time. Alternatively, make sure you collect the Home Point and you can warp back without the second lily.
**3) Gamble with [[Twinkbrix]] at (E-13) in [[Oldton Movalpolos]] by trading him Gil (1~10,000) until you win the {{KI}} [[Shaft 2716 operating lever]], then pay him 2000 more Gil to warp you there.
***On [[Lightsday]], trading Twinkbrix a {{H:text|a number related to the area|certain amount of gil}} will make him use not-{{tooltip|text=[[Goblin Die|loaded dice]]|tooltip=[[File:Goblin Die description.png]]}}, giving you the best odds as if you had traded 10,000, and also changes his dialogue. 
**4) The old fashioned (long) way of walking through [[Newton Movalpolos]] and operating the furnace hatches.
***This requires at least 3 people.
***(Alternative walk) You only need 1 {{ItemIcon|Firesand|22}} [[Firesand]] if someone can tractor you up the east ledge in Oldton Movalpolos at (K-10), the person raising runs from the hp in Newton Movalpolos to exit 3.
***You can get the [[Proto-Waypoint]] this way too if you started the quest [[Researchers from the West]]. Tractor up the south ledge, it is used in multiple [[The Voracious Resurgence Missions]].
****The Proto-Waypoint into Newton Movalpolos is also fastest way to get to the mobs that drop Gold Key.
*Before the battle is commenced, make sure to zone out into [[Newton Movalpolos]] and attune to the Home Point just outside after being teleported to [[Mine Shaft 2716|Mine Shaft #2716]] (you will need this later on, several times).

*After you have made your way to [[Mine Shaft 2716|Mine Shaft #2716]] rest up and go over strategies. When you are ready, click on the '''Shaft Entrance''' and enter the battlefield "'''A Century of Hardship'''".
**'''Note''': Take caution not to enter an ENM instead of the Mission battlefield ''A Century of Hardship''. You will need to return here again for this Mission and you must wait 5 days before obtaining another {{KI}} [[Shaft 2716 operating lever]].
**Buffs will wear when you enter so make sure to buff while inside the battlefield.
 
''With the lifting of the level cap on this Battlefield, this battle is now relatively trivial in difficulty. The walkthrough below was written for a level cap of 60.''

*All of the Moblins and Bugbby can also use their respective job's 2 Hour Ability.
||
*All of the Moblins can call [[Bugbby]] to their aid at anytime during the fight so whoever is kiting/tanking Bugbby should be prepared to pull hate back.
*[[Sleep]] is unreliable but [[Silence]] works well.
*Try to [[Silence]] the mages and pick them off one at a time.
*If you can't keep [[Silence]] on them all reliably, focus on Silencing the BLM first.
*If you manage to get them to [[Sleep]] and happen to be fighting the WHM, [[Benediction]] will wake the rest of them up.

====Departures====

*After clearing the BC, speak with [[Cid]] in the [[Metalworks]].
*Head to [[Newton Movalpolos]] and farm a {{ItemIcon|Gold Key|22}} [[Gold Key]] for everyone in your party.
**They drop from the Moblins near the [[Oldton Movalpolos]] zone.
**[[Proto-Waypoint]] to Oldton Movalpolos then zone into Newton Movalpolos puts you at the right mobs.
*Head to [[Mine Shaft 2716|Mine Shaft #2716]] (see above for methods of getting there) and trade the {{ItemIcon|Gold Key|22}} [[Gold Key]] to the shaft entrance to get a cutscene.
** After the cutscene plays, it will send you to the BCNM Exit.
*Return to [[Cid]] once again to finish this path.
|}
----

*If you have completed the other 2 paths ([[Promathia Mission 5-3/Tenzen's Path|Tenzen's Path]], [[Promathia Mission 5-3/Ulmia's Path|Ulmia's Path]]), [[Cid]] will give an additonal cutscene and you can move on to the next Chapter: '''[[Promathia Mission 6-1|For Whom the Verse is Sung]]'''.

=====Optional (Windurst)=====
*[[One Good Deed?]] is available from [[Chipmy-Popmy]] (C-8) in [[Port Windurst]].
**[[One Good Deed?]] and [[The Search for Goldmane]] can be progressed in tandem with Partners Without Fame.
