Walkthrough
- Speak with Gumbah until he gives you the cutscene that starts this quest. He is located on the upper floor in Bastok Mines inside the house at J-7.
- Make sure you check your quest log before heading to Palborough Mines.
- The quest Great Sword Weaponskill quest Inheritance (Ground Strike) seems to take priority over this quest, so it is important to make sure to get the correct cutscene/dialogue from Gumbah.
- Travel to the Palborough Mines.
- Go from Port Bastok to North Gustaberg and enter the mines at (K-3). Head to the third floor. If you have the map for Palborough Mines, the third floor has a giant burn hole in the center.
- Proceed to the boat at (H-8).
- Get on the boat and pull the lever to zone into Zeruhn Mines from the boat to receive a cutscene and the Chaosbringer, a level 1 Great Sword for Warriors and Dark Knights.
- Anyone can pull the lever, you need only make the trip.
- If you drop the Chaosbringer, you may take the ferry in the Palborough Mines once more to receive another.
- Kill 100 enemies with Chaosbringer equipped. It doesn't matter what you kill, as long as the sword is equipped and deals the final blow with a standard/critical melee strike.
- Once you have defeated 100 enemies, take the blade and zone into Beadeaux for a cutscene to unlock Dark Knight.
The 100 Kills
New HorizonXI level 1 mobs DO NOT count towards the total.
- For it to count as a kill, the finishing blow must be made through a regular or critical strike with the Chaosbringer.
- WEAPON SKILL KILLS DO NOT COUNT. Must kill with a regular or critical strike as stated above.
- As long as the finishing blow is dealt with the Chaosbringer, the method(s) used to damage the monster are irrelevant.
- Abilities (such as Jump) that finish off the monster, do not count towards the kill total.
- Monsters that kill themselves (such as Goblin's (Bomb Toss), Bombs' (Self-Destruct) and Bees' (Final Sting) do not count towards the kill total.
- Enemies do not have to give experience points for them to count toward the 100 total.
- This includes enemies checking as Too Weak. Killing level 2 and 3 mobs outside the starting city is the quickest way.
- Nothing resets the kill count (other than dropping the blade); you may change areas, jobs, weapons, get K.O.'d, etc.
