Walkthrough

 

1)      At level 58, you can talk to Maat in Ru’Lude Gardens (H-5) and he will tell you that he needs three

       Crests from you in order to raise your cap.

2)      Make sure that if you are a non mage class to bring prisms and silent oils.

3)      Head out to Davoi.

4)      Put up Invisible (make sure to keep this up at all times).

5)      Go to (H-11) and zone into the Monastic Caverns.

6)      Follow this to (I-8) and zone into Davoi.

7)      You’ll now be at (H-8).

8)      Head east across the bridge and then north to (J-8).

9)      If no one in your party has the Crimson Orb, one person must do this quest (Skip to step 13 if someone

       has the Crimson Orb).

10)  Talk to the TaruTaru to receive the Crimson Orb quest.

11)  Now that person needs to examine each of the four ponds in Davoi.

a.      NW corner of (H-10) – Howling Pond

b.      NE corner of (L-9) – Wailing Pond

c.       NW corner of (E-8) – Screaming Pond

d.      Follow the River North at (H-6) – Groaning Pond

e.      When you dip the orb into the last pond, you will be Cursed.

12)  Once you’ve dipped the orb in all four ponds, return to the TaruTaru at (J-8) to receive the Crimson Orb.

13)  Now head South to (J-9) and have the person with the Crimson Orb open the Gate.

a.      This room is full of Orcs.

b.      You’ll have to drop invisibility in order to open the Gate.

c.       If you do catch agro, just head into the gate – the zone line isn’t very far.

14)  Once you zone into Monastic Cavern, just follow it around to (J-6).

15)  Examine the ??? to receive the Orcish Crest.

 

Davoi

 

16)  Get some Echo Drops before heading out to Beadeaux.

17)  You will only need Sneak for Beadeaux.

18)  Now head out to Beadeaux and follow the path down to (H-7) into the 2nd map.

19)  Continue up the tunnel to (F-8).

20)  There will be a Mute Machine and an Afflictor Machine in this tunnel.

a.      Mute Machines Silence you

b.      Afflictor Machines Curse you

c.       If you are muted by the Mute Machine, you can’t be Cursed by the Afflictor.

d.      So, always go to the Mute Machine first.

e.      Use Echo Drops to remove Silence AFTER you pass the Afflictor.

21)  Once you exit out of the tunnel, you will be back on the first map at (F-8).

22)  Hug the right wall and proceed South until you get to the ramp at (E-10).

23)  Go up the ramp.

24)  Now head to either (K-7) or (J-7) and go down either ramp.

25)  Enter the tunnel at (K-6) and you will be on the 2nd map at (J-6).

26)  Head South to the Muter at (K-8).

27)  Once Muted head back North and then take the East path at (K-6).

28)  Follow this tunnel and then at (M-7) head south.

29)  Keep following this tunnel until you zone into Qulun Dome at (M-8).

30)  Once in Qulun Dome, head west and then north.

31)  There is another Muter, once you are past it, and you can, use an Echo Drop.

32)  There will be four NMs in this room with the ??? for the Crest.

33)  Be sure they aren’t paying attention to you before examining the ???

34)  Examine the ??? at (I-6) to receive the Quadav Crest.

35)  Now head out to Castle Oztroja.

36)  You will only need Invisible, and remember not to step on or near the leeches please (could get ugly).

37)  Also, if you don’t have some sort of speed enhancing item/ability, you will need a second person to go with you.

38)  Don’t forget to bring a way to warp to your HP or someone with Escape also.

39)  There are several ways to get through this area.  We will explore the longest option, and then I will point out the

       shortcuts along the way.

40)  It’s smart to start this on a new game day, so the passwords don’t change on you.

41)  If you want to skip how to get the passwords off the statues, skip to step 65 – you will be on the 2nd map at this point.

42)  Head through the brass door at (H-8) and examine the statue inside the room for password #1.

43)  Now head through the door at (I-8) – the switch door – and head up the stairs to the 2nd map.

44)  Loop around and at the intersection at (I-8) head North.

45)  Follow this around to the next map at (G-7)

46)  Now head north and enter the next map at (I-7).

47)  Follow this around and at the intersection at (H-8), go West (right).

48)  Now follow this down and at the intersection at (G-9) go East (left).

49)  Then at the next Intersection at (G-9) go North (left).

50)  Follow this around and open the Brass Door in the SE corner of (H-9).

51)  Examine the statue in the room for password #2.

52)  Now go back the way you came and zone into the next map at (G-5).

53)  Head south and zone into the next map at (I-8).

54)  This will put you back on the 2nd map.

55)  To get to the 3rd password, here are the directions from (G-7): Follow the path around and at (H-8) go North (left)

56)  This will curve around, continue East, ignoring the path to the North.

57)  Curve South and ignore the path to the East.

58)  Curve West (right) and then at the intersection, go South (left).

59)  At the next intersection, go West (right) and follow this around to the next intersection.

60)  Now go West (right) and the room will bend to the North.

61)  Follow this up and out to curve around to (G-9).

62)  At the intersection, go East (Right) and keep on this path until you get to the end at (H-9).

63)  Now head North (left) and hug the right wall.

64)  At the intersection at (H-8), go East (right) and examine the statue for password #3.

65)  Now turn around and go to (G-8) on the same map (just go south and at the first right, make it and hug the North wall).

66)  At (G-8) there is a 4 lever door.

67)  Just play with the levers in different combinations until the door opens (the answer is at I-10, but I suggest you just guess).

68)  Once the door is open, make your way through it and follow the path around to the next map.

69)  Keep Invisible up and make your way through the room and onto the next map at (H-11) – be sure to avoid the leeches also.

70)  On this map you need to enter the Brass Door at (H-7).

71)  In order to do this, you must first light one of the torches at either (G-7), (H-7), (G-8), or (H-8) and then

       run through the now opened door.

72)  The door only stays open for a short time, so you will either need to have someone light the torch and you run

       through it, or have some kind of movement enhancer (Nin AF Boots, Flee, Strider Boots, Hermes Quencher, etc), so

       you can light the torch and then run through the door yourself.

73)  You can open the door from the other side, so only one person needs to rush through the door.

74)  There are usually 3 Yags in the torch room, so make sure they are facing away before you drop Invisible and open the door.

75)  Once through the door, you will see a plank with a red circle and a statue.

76)  Have everyone stand on the Plank and now examine the Statue.

77)  You will need to input the 3 passwords in order and they are case sensitive.

1)      The possible passwords are (taken from www.ffxi-atlas.com):

a.      Domi

b.      Puqu

c.       Gadu

d.      Deggi

e.      Mjuu

f.        Xalmo

g.      Haqa

h.      Mong

i.        Ouzi

j.        Duzu

k.      Buxu

l.        Quu

m.    Misu

n.      Xicu

o.      Ovzi

p.      Duxo

q.      Zhuu

2)      Once you enter the passwords, you will fall down to the lower level.

3)      Now you will be in a corridor where you should see steps leading to a central platform, this is where the crest is.

4)      The ??? is usually guarded by a NM Yagudo, so be careful when going to check it.

5)      If in a group, send one person at a time.

6)      Once you have the crest, go to a safe spot and warp back to your HP, or Escape out.

7)      Now head back to Ru’Lude Gardens and talk to Maat to receive a Level Cap of 65.
