Early Bird Catches the Bookworm

This quest cannot be completed if Early Bird Catches the Bookworm is active, as the NPC in Giddeus will ask for a Silver Beastcoin instead. Dark Legacy stops Early Bird Catches the Bookworm so presumably it also intereferes with this. --Dewin 22:21, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

• This is not true, I just talked to the yag and he first asked for the mythril coin. The 2nd time I talked to him he asked for the silver coin. I traded him the mythril coin and he gave me the key item and then went back and got the next CS. --Motanon July 22, 2008

Starting the Quest

Seems that there is some sort of level or mission requirement. Went in with a level 22 mule and it didn't activate. Going to try getting pass mission 2 of WoTg then try again. --Oprime 15:57, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

I'm on The Tigress Strikes and quest still isn't activating. I'll get a buddy to defeat the NM to get on Cait Sith. I'll make sure to report my finding. Possible this quest has a level cap or based on campaign rank.--Oprime 15:57, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Not sure what is keeping me from doing this. I am Mythril Wings level and have completed Healing Herbs and Early Bird Catches the Bookworm. Will continue to try to determine why I cannot start this quest.

Lv20 and Brass Ribbon $$ and still no go. Is there a fame aspect to quests in the past or do they Campaign medals replace that? --JTimmons 11:29, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Looks like it's just a level requirement. Seen people with only the first Ribbon and on beginning of 2nd mission and been able to get it. Just a matter of figuring out what the lvl requirement it. --JTimmons 06:23, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
