Walkthrough

• Speak to Guslam at H-8 in Upper Jeuno in the Durable Shields shop and accept the quest.

The Hands

• Head to Eldieme Necropolis and open a coffer here, so either:

• Obtain a Eldieme Coffer Key; or
• Come as a thief and bring along tools to pick the lock (see Picking your Coffers and Chests).

• Open a coffer in Eldieme Necropolis and obtain the Old Gauntlets (key item).
• Head back to Upper Jeuno and talk to Guslam again, who will send you to the Tenshodo.
• Go to Lower Jeuno and go into the Tenshodo to talk to Yin Pocanakhu at J-8. Pay her 1,000 gil to get her information. (Note: This step only needs completed for the very first AF quest you do, it does not need to be repeated if it is your second or higher AF quest.)
• Head to Port Jeuno and go downstairs into the Auction House area and find a ??? on some crates outside the Jeuno Duty-Free shop (H-8).
• Click on the ??? for a cutscene and ask to have the gloves repaired.
• Go to F-8 in Castle Zvahl Baileys and touch one of the torches to spawn Dark Spark.
• Kill Dark Spark touch the torch again (not important to touch the same torch anymore) to recieve the Shadow Flames (key item).

• If there are others in the party that also need this key item, they can touch the torch as well - you don't have to fight him for each person.

• Head back to Port Jeuno and click on the the ??? where the toolbox is for a cutscene and to complete the quest.

The Rest

• Guslam mentions something about armor scattered about Vana'diel. You can find two more pieces of armor by simply opening coffers in the following zones:

• Castle Oztroja: Warlock's Tabard
• Garlaige Citadel: Warlock's Tights

• You must have RDM as your main job when you open these coffers.

Notes

• You must have (at least) started The Crimson Trial (AF1) before you can start this quest.
• If you have any other Borghertz's Hands quest active you will need to complete that one before you can get this quest.
• After starting the quest, you can obtain the rewards in any order.
• The quest is marked complete upon obtaining the gloves.
