Walkthrough

After completing Equipped for All Occasions, return to Arrapago Reef's ??? (Note: This is H-10 on map 1) as Corsair 50+. If you head out from Nashmau, you may want to set your home point there, so you can warp out of Arrapago Reef and complete the next necessary steps in Nashmau.
- You need a Lamian Fang Key if traveling from Nashmau or using an Atmacite Refiner's teleportation service to Arrapago Reef.
  - You can obtain a free Lamian Fang Key once per Vana'diel day (resetting at 0:00 game time) from a ??? in Caedarva Mire (H/I-7), in a small crevice behind a Jnun.
- You can use the Ilrusi Atoll Staging Point to bypass the need for a Lamian Fang Key, but now that the key is so readily available at the ???, using the Ilrusi Atoll Staging Point is unnecessarily time-consuming.
Examine the ??? for a cutscene during which you are told to find a Hydrogauge. You cannot fish up the Hydrogauge before this point.
From this point on, Corsair does not need to be your main job.
Fish up a Hydrogauge. It will behave like any fished item, giving the message "You feel something pulling at your line."
- It can be fished up from Aht Urhgan Whitegate, Al Zahbi, Nashmau, and Silver Sea route to Al Zahbi, with any rod and any bait.
- Aht Urhgan Whitegate has the fewest fish to interfere with Hydrogauge fishing attempts. You can use any rod and Insect Ball, purchasable at Wahnid (H-11).
After fishing up your Hydrogauge, trade it to Leleroon at Nashmau (G-7), bottom floor.
Next, head to the Leypoint in Wajaom Woodlands at (G-8), and trade the Hydrogauge to the Leypoint for the message "You set the Hydrogauge in the glowing trench."
- You don't need to trade this as a Corsair, so the Leypoint can be conveniently warped to by any 60+ job using an Olduum Ring.
Wait one minute (Earth time) and reexamine the Leypoint for a cutscene.
Return to Arrapago Reef and check the ??? for a cutscene with Zweeha and your reward.

Game Description

Client: ??? - Arrapago Reef (H-10)
Summary: The seas around Arrapago Reef cannot be navigated without a hydrogauge, and it is your job to find one. Ships from the Kingdom of Ephramad all had one, but that was long ago...

-**Don't forget your [[Lamian Fang Key]] if traveling from [[Nashmau]], or else plan on dodging true sight imps in close quarters by way of the [[Ilrusi Atoll Staging Point]].
+***You can obtain a free Lamian Fang Key '''once per Vana'diel day''' (resetting at 0:00 game time) from a [[???]] in [[Caedarva Mire]] (H/I-7), in a small crevice behind a [[Jnun]].
-**Using the [[Ilrusi Atoll Staging Point]] will get you to [[Arrapago_Reef/Maps|Map 2]]. From there, go to point A to get to Map 1. Then go to the tunnels using point m. That puts you on Map 6. Exit using the Iron Gate at G-9/H-9 to get to the ???.

+**[[Aht Urhgan Whitegate]] has the fewest fish to interfere with Hydrogauge fishing attempts. You can use any rod and [[Insect Ball]], purchasable at [[Wahnid]] (H-11).
-*Fish up a [[Hydrogauge]].  You can hook one in several locations, including [[Al Zahbi]], [[Aht Urhgan Whitegate|Whitegate]], [[Nashmau]], and on [[Silver Sea route to Nashmau|the ferry between Whitegate and Nashmau]].  The [[Hydrogauge]] can give a message like, "Something caught the hook!" or "You feel something pull at your line.", when on the line.  You will know it is the right one because its HP gauge will drop in about two seconds and the rod will not sway back and forth rapidly.
-**There seems to be a far lower (or impossible) success rate for catching the [[Hydrogauge]] if you have not flagged this quest yet.. Please make sure you have the quest active before you attempt to fish.
-**This does not require any Fishing skill level, and can be completed with virtually any fishing rod and bait. {{Testimonials}}

-**Next, head to the [[Leypoint]] in [[Wajaom Woodlands]] at (G-8), and trade the [[Hydrogauge]] to the [[Leypoint]]. You will receive the message "You set the [[Hydrogauge]] in the glowing trench."

-**(''Note: You don't need to check this as [[Corsair]]. A [[Thief]] can pick the [[Lamian Fang Key]] door, although it may take many attempts to succeed.'')
-*Note: After completing this quest and flagging [[Against All Odds]], you are able to get the next 3 pieces of AF, one by one, by selecting the Item from [[Leleroon]] in [[Nashmau]]. Each Item will be crafted by an NPC, each in a different Nation, (first [[Windurst]], then [[Bastok]], and finally [[San d'Oria]]). In each Nation, you will be required to trade a few specific Items and Imperial Coins to a House and wait till Midnight JST to get your reward. To see the specific items, check out the individual pages for each [[Corsair]] AF ([[Corsair's Gants]], [[Corsair's Bottes]], & [[Corsair's Frac]]).
