Walkthrough

  • NOTE: Before attempting this quest, designate a leader so that the group functions as a team. This is essential for the success of this quest. Make sure you have a near-full alliance unless you are using two or more Summoners with Ifrit's Astral Flow ability, Inferno.
  • Talk to Raifa in the Steaming Sheep Restaurant in Port Bastok (D-6).
    • If you cannot get the quest, Raifa says...
      • Something about the food. (You have already completed an Eco-Warrior quest this Conquest period or you do not have enough fame)
      • "...Can I have a moment of your time? Oh, but you look busy..." (You are currently involved in another Eco-Warrior quest)
  • Head to Gusgen Mines.
  • Talk to Degga at (H-9). (You will see him on your right, toward the end of the entry corridor.) He applies an ointment that restricts your level to 20. Buffs do NOT wear with this level restriction. Buff before applying the restriction.
    • Note that, once the level restriction is applied, only others with the same level restriction are able to cure or buff you.
    • You lose the level restriction if you are KO'd. It may be reapplied at any time by speaking to Degga again once raised.
      • Note: if you Reraise, you keep the level restriction.
    • If you return to your Home Point after being KO'd or otherwise leave the area in any way, you lose any progress made in the quest since talking to Degga.
  • At the very first 4-way intersection (H-9), go down the west corridor (turn left).
  • Go down the west corridor and turn north at (G-9).
  • Continue north at (G-9) and do not turn down any passage except ones leading north until you arrive at (G-6).
  • Camp on the western side of (G-6) and clear out the monsters here before turning to the east corridor.
  • Clear the way to the east. The ??? is on a chest further east in the middle of the deck at (H-6). Clear the area around the chest.
  • When ready, click the ??? to spawn two Pudding NMs.
    • You must have the level restriction applied to spawn and engage these NMs.
    • Any player without the level restriction in place who attempts to help another player with it will be instantly KO'ed. HorizonXI specific changes
    • The Puddings spawn with aggro toward the party member who spawns them. If Sneak is applied, the spawner is still aggroed. Clicking the ??? removes any Sneak effect.
    • The Puddings are Slime-type NMs. As such, they are weak against magic, but highly resistant to physical attack. As they gain TP, they use a strong version of Fluid Spread, the Slime AOE attack, that causes critical damage to anyone in range. This is a common cause of wipes.
  • After the NMs are defeated, touch the ??? again to receive an Key ItemIndigested Ore.
    • You must have the Level Restriction applied to obtain the key item.
    • Should you change areas during or after the fight, but before obtaining the key item, clicking the ??? causes the Puddings to respawn. They must be defeated again for you to obtain the key item.
  • Return to Degga to have your ointment/level restriction removed. It may also be removed through logging out and back in, or simply warping out of the mines.
  • Return to Raifa in Port Bastok to receive your reward.


  • Warning: you cannot gain more than 1 level when completing this quest. This may result in you not receiving the full 8k xp reward. Eg. you complete the quest on a level 20 job and are 1k TNL at the start. Completion of the quest will end with you as level 21, 1 EXP short of level 22.
  • The above warning was not accurate as of 8-27-2023. I turned in eco-sandy with level 24 THF (with 70exp / 5100) I then recieved the exp and got a major way into level 24. I then used the scroll and it too gave me level 24 and then a non-zero amount (the balance) into level 25. I do not know if this is intended or will be reverted.
