== Walkthrough ==
* You cannot start this quest if you have a other [[WSNM|Weapon Skill Quest]] active. You must return to the person that gave said quest and quit to start another.
* Speaking with [[Jaucribaix]] will grant you the key item [[Weapon training guide|Weapons Training Guide]] as well as the [[Tachi of Trials]]. You will need to break the latent on the [[Tachi of Trials]] before completing the rest of the quest.

:* Breaking the Latent
{{#replace:{{:Category:WSNM}}|''Weapon of Trials''|[[Tachi of Trials]]}} 

* Trade the [[Tachi of Trials]] back to [[Jaucribaix]]. This will give you the key item [[Map to the Annals of Truth]]. You will be instructed to travel to [[Kuftal Tunnel]].

* Unity Warp(125) brings you relatively close, and at item level you will have no issues kiting everything on your way to spawn the NM.

* Take [[Silent Oil]] and [[Prism Powder]] with you and head to [[Kuftal Tunnel]]. When you enter the tunnel, follow the path to the first junction and head north. Continue north through the large tunnel until you come to (I-5) and then head southeast. The ??? to spawn the NM is in this tunnel at (L-7).

* This fight is against [[Kettenkaefer]], a beetle. It is weak to [[Ice]] and [[Light]] attacks. Once you kill it, re-examine the ??? to receive the key item [[Annals of Truth]].

* Go back and speak with [[Jaucribaix]] to receive your reward.

Promathia Mission 8-2

2023-11-11T07:28:04Z

Xathias: /* Walkthrough */

{{Mission Header
|Mission Name=A Fate Decided
|Expansion=Chains of Promathia
|Start=[[Grand Palace of Hu'Xzoi]] - Particle Gate - (H-8)
|Description=Nag'molada has descended into the depths of the palace in search of the Chamber of Eventide. Join Prishe in her pursuit of the Kuluu diplomat.
|Level=None
|Repeatable=No
|Previous=Promathia Mission 8-1{{!}}Garden of Antiquity

}}

{{color|red|Note:}} You cannot save progress on this Mission. If you wipe without a way to [[reraise]], or otherwise have to quit, you have to start from the beginning. At 99/ilevel the escort takes 30-40 minutes solo.
 
{{color|red|Note:}} This Mission is your last chance to finish [[Rhapsodies of Vana'diel]]. Once you pass this Mission, [[Tenzen]] will be unavailable for [[Rhapsodies of Vana'diel|Rhapsodies]] Missions until the final cutscene of [[Dawn]], which includes a Japanese Midnight wait.

== Walkthrough ==

* Examine the eastern '''Particle Gate''' at (H-8) in the [[Grand Palace of Hu'Xzoi]] for a cutscene that starts the Mission. Examine it again to enter.
**The northern Particle Gate next to the Home Point that sends you to the Garden of Ru'Hmet is the wrong door.
* The next section requires you to make your way through [[Grand Palace of Hu'Xzoi|Hu'Xzoi]] by escorting the Quasilumin orb-looking NPCs that you might have noticed in [[Al'Taieu]].
**The Map on this page has detailed directions (the {{color|ice|blue}} line). There is an upper and lower level.
*On your way through, you will run into '''Particle Gates''' that will not open. Find a nearby '''Cermet Alcove''' and check it to spawn a Quasilumin NPC (check the map on this page). It will then progress on a pre-determined route. You can stop and start the Quasilumin much like the NPCs found in the escort quests.
*You have to protect the Quasilumin while it travels to its destination. Keep the Quasilumin alive and it will open '''Particle Gates''' along its way. It will eventually reach another '''Cermet Alcove''' and once there, check the NPC again and it will open the final gate.
*On your way through it appears that the only enemies to pose a threat are the shapshifting [[Ix'ghrah]] and [[Eo'ghrah]] and the [[Eo'zdei]] which wait at the end of the first and second escort position.
**'''Note''': Quasilumins which are not on the move are used to get the map of the Grand Palace. If you talk to all ten, talking to one again will give you a map of this area.'''

===Complete Route===
*Map 1 (Upper Level, M1) (J-8) escort (5 minute limit).
*Map 1 (L-7) transporter.
*Map 2 (Basement Level, M2) (L-8) escort (30 minute limit).
*Map 2 (I-10) escort (30 minute limit).
*Map 2 (G-12) transporter.
*Map 1 (G-10) escort (40 minute limit).
**People who have already completed [[When Angels Fall]] can join you at this point by taking the west door from the lobby.
*Map 1 (G-4) transporter.
*Continue on to Map 2 (H-8) for the NM fight.
----
* Enter the room and examine another '''Cermet Portal''' to spawn an [[Ix'ghrah]]. It is capable of using all 4 forms: ball, bird, spider, and human.
**'''Easily soloable around at level 75 with Trusts, trivial at Item Level.'''
**The spider form is easily damaged by both physical and magical attacks, but it is also the most dangerous form to your tank.
***This form uses [[Mighty Strikes]] and [[Sickle Slash]] (ignores Utsusemi, high damage if it crits).
**The bird form is hard to hit with weapons but takes lots of damage from magic.
***This form uses [[Perfect Dodge]] and Damnation Dive.
**The orb form takes more damage from weapons and less from magic.
***This form casts -ga III spells based on its element. It uses [[Manafont]] and Hexidiscs.
**The humanoid form doesn’t take much damage at all, but doesn’t do much either.
***This form uses [[Invincible]] and [[Vorpal Blade]].
* Defeat it, then examine the '''Cermet Portal''' again for another cutscene.
* Return to the palace entrance and examine the '''Gate of the Gods''' to enter [[The Garden of Ru'Hmet]].
** While it is possible to go back through all of the '''Cermet Portals''', it is far faster to [[Warp]]/[[Warp Ring]] and teleport to Home Point #1 in the [[Grand Palace of Hu'Xzoi]] (via [[Lumoria]].)

***Speak with [[Fheli Lapatzuo]] on the dock to make sure you're going to the right island '''and''' ensure that you have tickets from [[Tswe Panipahr]] nearby.
**Alternatively, you can clear the first 4 [[Voidwatch]] NMs on the [[VW Op. 026: Tavnazian Terrors|Tavnazian]] path to gain a direct warp to the island (recommended as you will be coming back later)
***'''Note:''' This may be difficult for new players. Use x5 [[Phase Displacer]]s to weaken the NM. See the [[Phase Displacer]] page for details.
*'''(Optional)''': Head to (E-5) in [[Windurst Walls]] and speak with [[Yoran-Oran]] for additional dialogue.

====A Century of Hardship====
*Travel to [[Oldton Movalpolos]] and zone in for a cutscene.
**The [[Gusgen Mines]] [[Survival Guide]] will bring you very close to the [[Oldton Movalpolos|Oldton]] entrance.
*The next step is the BC at [[Mine Shaft 2716|Mine Shaft #2716]] and there are several options to get to the BC entrance. Any of the following options work:
**1) (Fast) Trade a {{ItemIcon|Snow Lily|22}} [[Snow Lily]] to [[Tarnotik]] at (K-10) in [[Oldton Movalpolos]] and he will warp you there.
***The [[Snow Lily|Lily]] can be purchased from the Auction House ([[File:Auction House 16.png|link=]] ➞ Materials ➞ Alchemy) or dropped from [[Uleguerand Tiger]] in [[Uleguerand Range]].
*** If you chose this option, make sure to get x2 [[Snow Lily|Lilies]], as you'll have to come back one more time.
**2) Gamble with [[Twinkbrix]] at (E-13) in [[Oldton Movalpolos]] by trading him Gil (1~10,000) until you win the {{KI}} [[Shaft 2716 operating lever]], then pay him 2000 more Gil to warp you there.
**3) The old fashioned (long) way of walking through [[Newton Movalpolos]] and operating the furnace hatches.
***This requires at least 3 people.
***Before the battle is commenced, make sure to zone out into [[Newton Movalpolos]] and attune to the Home Point just outside after being teleported to [[Mine Shaft 2716|Mine Shaft #2716]] (you will need this later on, several times).

*After you have made your way to [[Mine Shaft 2716|Mine Shaft #2716]] rest up and go over strategies. When you are ready, click on the '''Shaft Entrance''' and enter the battlefield "'''A Century of Hardship'''".
**'''Note''': Take caution not to enter an ENM instead of the Mission battlefield ''A Century of Hardship''. You will need to return here again for this Mission and you must wait 5 days before obtaining another {{KI}} [[Shaft 2716 operating lever]].

== Walkthrough ==
There are 2 distinct paths to this mission and they can be done in either order.
=== Emerald Waters (San d'Oria Path) ===
{| style="width: 100%; max-width: 1800px;"
|-
| style="vertical-align: top" |
{{tooltip|text=[[File:Jugner Forest.jpg|150px|right|thumb|Jugner Forest|link=]]|tooltip=[[File:Jugner Forest.jpg|link=]]}}
{{tooltip|text=[[File:Carpenters Landing-map1.jpg|150px|right|thumb|Carpenters' Landing|link=]]|tooltip=[[File:Carpenters Landing-map1.jpg|link=]]}}
=====Vicissitudes=====
*Zone into [[Northern San d'Oria]] for a cutscene.
*Head to the Cathedral and speak with [[Arnau]] at the alter (M-6).
*Speak with [[Chasalvige]], who is in the Cathedral's Manuscript room (L-6) for a cutscene.

=====Descendants of a Line Lost=====
*Head to [[Carpenters' Landing]] via the (E-6) entrance in [[Jugner Forest]].
*Speak with [[Guilloud]] at (H-10) to spawn the NM [[Overgrown Ivy]].
**This is a Malboro-type mob and can use [[Hundred Fists]]. You may need some high level help to defeat it if you are lower leveled.
*Speak with [[Guilloud]] again after defeating [[Overgrown Ivy]].

=====Louverance=====
*Speak with [[Hinaree]] at (B-6) in [[Southern San d'Oria]] upstairs in the Count's Manor for a cutscene to complete the San d'Oria path.

=== Memories of a Maiden (Windurst Path) ===
{| style="width: 100%; max-width: 1800px;"
|-
| style="vertical-align: top" |
{{tooltip|text=[[File:Attohwa Chasm-map.jpg|150px|right|thumb|Attohwa Chasm|link=]]|tooltip=[[File:Attohwa Chasm-map.jpg|link=]]}}
=====Comedy Of Errors, (Act I)=====
*Zone into [[Windurst Waters]] for a cutscene.
*Speak to [[Ohbiru-Dohbiru]] at (J-9) inside the [[Rhinostery]], located in South [[Windurst Waters]] (Map 2), Home Point #3 will take you right next to it.
*Speak with [[Yoran-Oran]] at (E-5) in [[Windurst Walls]] (Home Point #1).
**Yoran-Oran offers other quests unrelated to this mission so you may need to speak with him multiple times to get the right cutscene.
*Speak with [[Kyume-Romeh]] at (F-10) in [[Windurst Waters]]. He is in the Tavern. Home Point #4 will take you near it.

=====Comedy of Errors, (Act II)=====
*Head to [[Windurst Waters]] (South Map Home Point #3) and speak with [[Honoi-Gomoi]] at (E-7). They are upstairs behind the house to receive the {{KI}}[[Cracked Mimeo Mirror]].
*Head back to [[Windurst Walls]] (Home Point #1) and speak with [[Yoran-Oran]] (E-5) again.
*Travel to (K-8) in [[Attohwa Chasm]] and look for a spot marked as "'''Loose Sand'''".
**Fastest way to the [[Attohwa Chasm|Chasm]] is to use [[Unity Warp]] level 125.
*To reach the '''Loose Sand''' you'll have to walk around the perimeter of [[Parradamo Tor]]: Start north, proceed north-east, then south until you reach (L-8).
**From (L-8), walk briefly west to reach (K-8) and the ''"Loose Sand"''. It is in a dead-end underneath some fancy Attohwa trees.
*Clicking the '''Loose Sand''' spawns an NM [[Antlion]] around level 55 named [[Lioumere]].
**The spawning player will be hit with {{physical}} Pit Ambush upon spawning.
**Half of Lioumere's TP moves are physical while the sand named ones are {{earth}} {{color|earth|Earth}}, and it is weakest to {{wind}} {{color|wind|Wind}} and {{light}} {{color|light|Light}}.
**After Lioumere uses a TP move (like Sandblast or Sandtrap), it will return to the ''Loose Sand'' and recover all its HP. So it is recommended to pull it away from the Loose Sand after spawning.
**[[Sleep]], [[Bind]], [[Stun]], [[Gravity]] and a multitude of other [[Status Effects|Enfeebles]] will land and help prevent it from returning to the ''Loose Sand''.
*'''Read the following four points after defeating the NM, but before clicking on the Loose Sand a second time:'''
# You will receive a {{KI}} [[Mimeo Jewel]] after clicking the '''Loose Sand''' targetable location.
# You will have exactly 30 Earth minutes to climb to the top of [[Parradamo Tor]] and reach the '''Cradle of Rebirth''' before the {{KI}} [[Mimeo Jewel]] breaks.
# The [[Mimeo Jewel|Jewel]] will also '''IMMEDIATELY BREAK''' upon using a [[Mount]], zoning, or disconnecting.
# If the [[Mimeo Jewel|Jewel]] breaks, you will need to return to the '''Loose Sand''' and obtain another {{KI}} [[Mimeo Jewel]]. You will not have to re-fight the NM.
:*This can be quite frustrating for a lot of players because the path to the top is not clearly defined and falling off may mean 30 minutes or more of lost progress.

=====Parradamo Tor=====
*After reading the points above, stand directly on top of the '''Loose Sand''' to obtain your {{KI}} [[Mimeo Jewel]].
*Make your way up [[Parradamo Tor]].
**See the '''[[Parradamo Tor]]''' page for help climbing the mountain.
***Keep your camera facing the mountain and go slow, rather than wasting time falling down and starting over.
*To reach the base of the mountain at (K-9), turn around from the '''Loose Sand''' and proceed south-east to then hug the right wall while proceeding north-west. The base is actually rather close after all that prior running to the '''Loose Sand'''.
**After the base comes within view proceed south-west, behind the rock is the ramp to the path upwards.
*Once you reach the top with your [[Mimeo Jewel|Jewel]] (and sanity!) intact, check the '''Cradle of Rebirth''' to obtain 3 Key Items: {{KI}} [[Mimeo Feather]], {{KI}} [[Second Mimeo Feather]], and {{KI}} [[Third Mimeo Feather]].
*Before leaving, if you have any progress on [[Adoulin Missions]], go to northwest of the '''Cradle of Rebirth''' to interact with the [[Geomagnetic Fount]], so that you may teleport back to this peak anytime.

=====Exit Stage Left=====
*Return to [[Yoran-Oran]] in [[Windurst Walls]] (Home Point #1) once again.
*Speak with [[Yujuju]] at (M-6) in [[Port Windurst]]. (Near the Air Travel Agency)
**[[Port Windurst]] Home Point #3
*Head inside the eastern half of the [[Optistery]] in [[Windurst Waters]] (North) to speak with [[Tosuka-Porika]] at (G-8).
**[[Windurst Waters]] Home Point #1.
*Head back and talk to [[Yoran-Oran]] one final time to complete the Windurst path.
|}

----

=== After completing both paths ===
*Head to the [[Metalworks]] and talk to [[Cid]] to complete the mission.
