The Doorman

Involved Areas
 * Bastok Mines
 * Davoi
 * Metalworks

Once you have attained Warrior Level 40, you may begin your Artifact Quests. At J-9 in Bastok Mines, near the Chocobo Stables, outside the entrance to the Residential Area, is an NPC named Phara. She is an elderly Hume woman. If your level is 40 or higher, she will ask you for some ‘Sword Grip Material’ (in purple- Key Item) from Davoi. In Davoi (Zone-in from D-12 in Jugner Forest), heading almost directly south will first take you to a small open area, down to a short, narrow path until you reach the wide-open area of K-9 and K-10. Orcs are aggressive to Sight only, so if you are worried about aggro from the Tier 4 Orcs (Beastrider/Impaler/Nightraider, the Orcish Firebelcher is also in the area), a mage with Invisible or a handful of Prism Powders will do. Scout around for the ‘Hide Flap’ (it will be on one of the tents scattered around the area of K-9/10) and make camp in front of it, killing any Orcs in the area to avoid any potential links. When everyone is buffed and ready, touch the ‘Hide Flap’, accept the presented option, and two NM Orcs, Gavotvut and Barakbok, will spawn in front of the tent. Barakbok is a Black Mage and it is highly suggested he be killed first. Gavotvut is a Warrior, and should fall shortly after the Black Mage. After both have died, scout again to find where the ‘Hide Flap’ has moved to (still in the same area, it should not be very far away). Examine it again to be presented with the ‘Sword Grip Material’ key item. Take this back to Phara, who will need a Vana'diel day (one real-time hour) to properly make a new sword. After the day has passed, return to Phara and you will receive the Sword (key item), and she asks you to take it to her grandson. Her grandson is Naji, who is a doorman at the Presidential Office in Bastok Metalworks (J-8). After a cut scene, Naji will give you the Razor Axe.
