Shadows of the Departed Mission: The Last Verse


Walkthrough[]

After completing Shadows of the Departed, you must wait until the next game day to activate this quest. Please note that your in-game Mission tracker will not update your mission progress until The Last Verse is completed.

Battle[]

See Testimonials for strategy information.

Afterwards[]

  • Talk to Aldo in Lower Jeuno (J-8) for a cutscene. You must be at least Rank 5 in your current nation to receive this cutscene.

OPTIONAL: While in the Tenshodo, talk with Yin Pocanakhu and Sattal-Mansal for some additonal dialogue.

  • Wait until the next game day and talk to Gilgamesh in Norg (L-8) for a cutscene to complete the quest. You must zone before talking to Gilgamesh to get the cutscene.

Rewards[]

Upon talking to Gilgamesh, you are given your choice of four earrings as a reward. You can only choose one of the following earrings. They are level 72 and can be equipped by all jobs. If you don't choose any of them, you can come back and speak to Gilgamesh anytime to pick one, but you will not complete the quest, nor activate The Last Verse, until you do.

Name Stats
Ethereal Earring HP +15, Attack +5, Evasion +5, Converts 3% of Damage Taken to MP
Hollow Earring DEX +2, Accuracy +3, Ranged Accuracy +3, Sword Enhancement Spell Damage +3
Magnetic Earring MP +20, "Conserve MP" +5, Spell Interruption Rate Down 8%, MP Recovered While Healing +1
Static Earring MND +2, Magic Defense Bonus +2, Bonus Damage Added To Magic Burst

Repeating the Quest[]

It is possible for this quest to be repeated. The earring previously acquired from this quest must not be in your possession to proceed (you must throw your first earring out in order to get a different one).

  • Target the ??? in the Empyreal Paradox and erase all memories of the quests "Shadows of the Departed" and "Apocalypse Nigh". Complete these quests again to obtain one of the earrings listed above.
    • For clarification, the earring must be dropped before you can receive the option to erase memories of the quests. Therefore, unlike artifact gear, it is not possible to retain your current earring while redoing the quests.

Update History[]

  • November 2021: The wait to progress to the final cutscenes was adjusted from Japanese midnight to one game day
