Walkthrough

• Zone into Bastok Markets (S) from North Gustaberg (S) for a cutscene that begins the quest. You will receive the Silvermine key.
• Go to North Gustaberg (S) top-middle of (E-9) and examine the Stonehoused Adit for a cutscene.
  • Survival Guide or Allied Notes Teleport via Scarlette, C.A., Narkissa, C.A., or Wenonah, C.A. is fastest if you have access.
• Examine the Stonehoused Adit again to start the fight.
  • If you fail this fight, you can get a new Silvermine key by speaking with Solitary Ant at North Gustaberg (S) (J-9).
  • Notice: You must zone and wait a game day before getting a new key.
• Your goal is to protect the NPC as you run through a maze. At certain points Quadavs will attack the NPC.
  • The NPC will follow the path marked below.
    • See the Discussion tab for enemy attack patterns
  • Occasionally the Quadavs will lose hate on whomever they are attacking and go after the NPC.
  • You can cure the NPC via non-BLU spells and she can be buffed by most spells
  • Multiple AOE sleeps is helpful depending on your recast times via Fast Cast
  • The Quadavs don't come in all at once and come in staggered via multiple waves, so short cast, high damage AOEs, as well as multiple AOE sleeps is helpful (Subduction, Sheep Song, Dream Flower, etc.)

WARNING: This mission may be very difficult to solo without AoE sleep and/or damage. The Quadavs can overwhelm the NPC if you are unable to quickly target them individually. It is advised to bring area of effect spells or abilities, and/or single target healing. Alternatively, Valaineral's Trust will reliably Uriel Blade each group of Quadavs so long as your initial attack to activate Trusts does not immediately defeat the target.

• Once you defeat all of the Quadavs, the battlefield will end once Adelheid reaches the turret.
• Enter Bastok Markets (S) from North Gustaberg (S) for a cutscene.
• Speak to Gentle Tiger in Bastok Markets (S) (H-6) for a cutscene.
• Speak to Gentle Tiger again for a second cutscene and to receive your reward.
