Walkthrough
- Devean, behind Shepherd's Muster in Selbina, asks if you want to find some loot he hid in Davoi. If you say yes he will ask you to bring him back a pair of Power Sandals hidden inside a Jar in Davoi, and will ask if you want to bet on how quick you will make it back to him.
- You then need to bet either 100, 250, 500, or 1000 gil and if you will make it back in 24, 36, 48, 60, or 72 hours.
- If you choose 24 hours you will get 3 times your bet, if you choose 36 you will get 2.5 times your bet, if you choose 48 hours you will get 2 times your bet, if you choose 60 hours you will get 1.5 times your bet, and if you choose 72 hours you will get 1.2 times your bet.
- The time is in game hours. If you choose 24 hours, or one game day, you will actually have about one hour in real life.
- Head to Davoi and find and interact with the Jar to find the Power Sandals. When a player receives the power sandals, the active jar will change to a different location.
- Only one interactable jar is up at a time.
- The jar will not change locations if you interact with it without this quest active.
- Possible Jar Locations
- Davoi (F-6) North of MNK AF2 ???.
- Davoi (F-7) To the right of a hut and a tree.
- Davoi (F-9) A jar next to a tree stump, bottom of F-9 center.
- Davoi (G-9) Next to the Village Well.
- Davoi (H-8) Near the Oak Door at the top of the Orcish stronghold.
- Davoi (H-8) Coming from the west side not on top of Orcish stronghold.
- Davoi (H-9) Next to the Orc Campfire with a view of the Orcish Stronghold across the river.
- Davoi (I-8) Near the lake at nighttime 18:00-4:00.
- Davoi (J-8) A Jar on top of Platform where Crimson Orb is obtained.
- Davoi (J-9) A Jar south of the platform where Crimson Orb is obtained.
- Davoi (J-9) Very southeastern corner, near huts.
- Davoi (K-9) A jar next to a tree stump.
- You must make it back to Devean before your time expires or your will lose the bet.
- If you chose not to return to him, you may keep the sandals.
- This quest may be repeatable, but if you fail at the quest (you didn't find the Jar) and return to him, you will lose your bet and can not immediately start the quest over.
Notes
The ??? itself stays for random time periods, or until examined for the quest. It has been seen to stay in the same place anywhere from 5 minutes to 3 hours.
