Walkthrough

  • Speak to Rongelouts N Distaud Southern San d'Oria (S) for a cutscene to begin the quest.
  • Zone in to Xarcabard (S) from Beaucedine Glacier (S) for a cutscene.
  • Examine the Backfilled Pit in Xarcabard (S) at (F-8).
  • Examine the Compact Footprint at (H-8).
  • Examine the Sunken Footprint at (H-6)
  • Examine the Compact Footprint at (H-8) again.
  • Zone into Batallia Downs (S) from Beaucedine Glacier (S) for a cutscene.
  • Examine the Fresh Snowmelt in Batallia Downs (S) at (H-5) for a cutscene.
  • Examine the Fresh Snowmelt again to spawn an NM.
    • You have 30 minutes to defeat the Mannequin NM named Menechme. You will be assisted by Excenmille.
    • Menechme uses Polearm weaponskills, the most dangerous being Penta Thrust.
    • Excenmille will occasionally use a skill called Stag's Cry that will give himself a temporary attack boost and magic attack bonus. Excenmille will also do several unique weaponskills such as Songbird Swoop, Gyre Strike, and Stag's Charge that do damage.
    • You can win the BC fairly easily by simply curing Excenmille while avoiding getting hate on Menechme.
  • Once Menechme is defeated, examine the Fresh Snowmelt for a cutscene and your reward.
