Walkthrough

  • Speak with a Gate Guard to accept the mission.
    • Trade 20~30 crystals.
  • Visit Iron Eater at the President's Office in Metalworks.

Quicksand Caves, Part 1 (Fight)

  • Make your way to (H-8) and open the weighted door.
    • The door will open by applying enough weight on the nearby sensor. It needs a total of 3 "points":
  • It is recommended you defeat them in that order, however a well-balanced party should have little difficulty with them.
  • Check the Galka Statue again for a cutscene.

Quicksand Caves, Part 2

  • Don't run to the chocobo rental npc just run. Tested it is only 60 seconds faster vs simply running.
  • Make your way to (D-12) of Western Altepa Desert and enter Quicksand Caves Map 5.
    • This entrance is accessed at (C-11)→(D-11) in the far southwest corner.
  • Inside, head through the eastern weighted door at (K-8) this will take you to Map 6.
  • Go east to another weight device at (G-8) and proceed east again.
    • The ??? you need is on the floor infront of the mural in the room at (H-8).
  • Check the ??? for a cutscene with Zeid.
