Walkthrough

Travel to the Durable Shields shop and speak with Guslam located at (H-8) to begin the quest.

  • You do not need to be on Paladin when opening the coffer.
  • You will receive a key item Old gauntlets from the coffer.
  • Return to Upper Jeuno and speak to Guslam. He will inform you he is unable to repair the gauntlets.
  • If This is your first AF you must do the following.
  • Go to Port Jeuno and head to the crates near the AH and Jeuno Duty-Free Shop at (H-8).
  • Click on the ??? to receive a cutscene.
  • Travel to Castle Zvahl Baileys and go to (F-8) on the first map.
  • Click on one of the torches to spawn Dark Spark.
  • Once Dark Spark is defeated, examine the same torch you used to spawn it. You will receive the key item Shadow flames.
  • Return to Port Jeuno and examine the ??? again. After the cutscene, the quest is complete.

Two Additional Coffers

Guslam mentions that there is still armor scattered about Vana'diel. You can find two more pieces of armor by opening coffers in the following zones with the corresponding coffer key:

  • Garlaige Citadel - Gallant Coronet icon.png Gallant Coronet
  • Beadeaux - Gallant Breeches icon.png Gallant Breeches
    • These coffers are not required to complete the quest, therefore after you receive your hands the quest is "completed".
    • The quest must either be active or completed in order to receive these attire pieces.
    • You must have Paladin as your main job when you open these coffers.
