Walkthrough

  • Talk to any gate guard to activate this mission after filling the rank bar approximately 30%. (Trade about 4 3/4 stacks of crystals.)
  • Once activated go to the Aurastery in Northern Windurst Waters, and speak to Moreno-Toeno at (L-6) for a cutscene, who gives you the key item Star Seeker.
  • You also receive the title "Fugitive Minister Bounty Hunter" at this point.
  • Travel to Davoi and head through the H-11 entrance to the Monastic Cavern.
  • Enter back into Davoi from the Monastic Cavern at I-8 and speak to Sedal-Godjal at J-8 (this part may be done after killing the NM).
  • Ascend the elevator at H-8 and prepare to kill or Invis by the Orcs roaming outside the house.
  • Through the two Oak Doors of the house is a level 71 Black Mage NM named Dirtyhanded Gochakzuk flanked by 2-3 assorted Orcs.
  • Note: Do not forget Poison Potion because this NM uses Sleepga.
  • Note: The NM has True Sight and can aggro through the inner door to the house.
  • Note: If you do not have the manpower to fight through everything toward the house. A convenient method was for one member to hold a monster at the back wall to the house, while another member standing below casts an AoE, inflicting it upon Dirtyhanded Gochakzuk through the wall, who will begin casting and walking toward the caster. The member who held the monster as well as the one casting the AoE should work their way to the Monastic Cavern (Behind the House) and zone in and out, while a third party member claims Dirtyhanded Gochakzuk as it runs past, pulling it to the cliff alongside the zone to Monastic Cavern.
  • Note: If you use the strategy above and need more than 2 Curse Wands you can just clear the house and camp inside after killing the NM the first time.
