Notes

  • This quest does not appear in your log until it is completed.
  • Exit the Gambler was taken a bit literally when Varchet was temporarily removed from the game in an emergency maintenance in September 2007.[1]
    • A Moogle was put in his spot, who would inform adventurers that Varchet fell into financial ruin Information Needed or had the flu Information Needed or something and couldn't gamble.
    • This action was taken due to an exploit where his gambling mini-game could be manipulated by 3rd-party tools, causing an infinite gil glitch.
    • Varchet returned to his usual spot to try to win his fortune back a few weeks later.[2]
