Walkthrough

Only one Ward Warden / Desert Rain / Crimson Carpet quest can be completed per Vana'dielian day, regardless of Abyssea area.

  • Speak to the Resistance Sapper (Attohwa) at (F-9) (Veridical Conflux #00) and to begin the quest.
  • A spot on the map will be marked with a Target marker. This is your destination.
  • Speak to the Chocobo Tamer (Attohwa) located near the Resistance Sapper to purchase supplies and begin the escort.
    • Obtain a minimum of 6 Chocobo Blinkers; use these on the chocobo by trading them from your inventory. This will limit its field of vision to what is directly in front of it, making it very simple to guide around monsters. They seem to be more effective if you walk slowly past monsters with your chocobo close to you Verification Needed.
      • Blinkers last 90 seconds. They do not stack with Apples. You will see a message in the log when they wear off.
    • Obtain 6 Stamina Apples; Use these on the chocobo when you are not nearby monsters. This will cause health to only have around a 10% chance to tic down, thus effectively extending your timer and the chocobo's health.
      • Stamina apples last 60 seconds. They do not stack with Blinkers.
    • Obtain a minimum of 6 Azouph Greens. Using these on a chocobo raises it's health by 5%. You can only use these once every few minutes. If you try too often, you will receive a message that your chocobo is full.
    • The chocobo's HP gradually decreases during the quest. It is important to be quick with this quest.
    • Obtain a few M. Counteragents. There are a few Miasma that will appear on the path you need to take and will cause you to lose a lot of time if you cannot remove them right away.
  • Guide the chocobo to the Repair Crate located at (G-7) avoiding all aggro. You can use Silent Oil and Prism Powder on yourself, and your chocobo will continue to follow you as normal.
  • You will receive a message when the chocobo is close enough and can be loaded.
    • If a monster is in line-of-sight of a chocobo, it will run back to the last safe spot without monsters.
    • You will know it is running if it says "Kweh!?" in the log.
    • If it begins to run, quickly run back to it and interact for it to stop.
    • Recommended path: Use a Stamina Apple off the bat. Head straight north to the dead and, turn left and walk slightly north of the AT-04 Martello > Dark Miasma might be up past the martello > Use a Silent Oil here (You can get ambushed here if you do not use an oil, and your chocobo will run), turn north and hug the right wall when you can, and walk through the rocks > Dark Miasma might be up right before the Martello > AT-06 Martello > You will now reach the Schnitters. Go to the far wall and turn south, hug the wall and enter the tunnel to get to the target.
    • If a monster is in line-of-sight of a chocobo, it will run back to the last safe spot without monsters.
  • Click on the large Repair Trunk to gather supplies, then click on the chocobo to load the supplies.
    • Selecting Depart will prevent more supplies from being loaded, and will continue on with the escort.
    • If you are completing this quest just to complete it, only load one supply. More will slow down the chocobo.
  • Guide the chocobo back to the Chocobo Tamer (Attohwa), and speak to them to complete the escort.
    • Retract your steps to get there. It is the quickest way.
  • Talk to the Resistance Sapper (Attohwa) once again to complete the quest and to receive your reward.
