Walkthrough[]
- Following the last cutscene, you will be instructed to dig up your Moogle's savings in a random area.
- If you forget which area your Moogle mentioned, talk to the Inconspicuous Door again for a brief chat that your Moogle will tell you which area to go dig in.
- Purchase some Gysahl Greens and mount a Chocobo.
- More than one stack of Gysahl Greens is recommended as each dig attempt will expend one.
- Head to the area your Moogle informed you about and start digging.
- Each time you dig, you will receive a message informing you of the direction of the chest and how close you are (see below).
- Once you are near enough, you will obtain a Moldy, worm-eaten chest upon digging.
- Zoning causes the chest to move!
- Return to the Inconspicuous Door for the next cutscene.
- Reobtaining the Moldy, worm-eaten chest and talking to Squintrox Dryeyes will allow you to obtain the Black coral key, a Treasure Coffer (Tenshodo) Key. Simply talk to Squintrox Dryeyes and choose the Black coral key; she will let you know which area you need to dig for the Moldy, worm-eaten chest.
Digging Clues[]
The following hints are given when you dig:
- Your Chocobo is pulling at the bit
- You Sense that it is leading you to the [compass direction]
- No additional hint (Approx: 201'+ from target)
- You have a hunch this area would be favored by moogles... (Approx. 81-200' from target or two map grids)
- You have a vague feeling that a moogle would enjoy traversing this terrain... (Approx. 51-80' from target)
- You suspect that the scenery around here would be to a moogle's liking... (Approx. 21-50' from target)
- You have a feeling your moogle friend has been through this way... (Approx. 11-20' from target)
- You get the distinct sense that your moogle friend frequents this spot... (Approx. 5-10' from target)
- You are convinced that your moogle friend has been digging in the immediate vicinity. (Less than 5' from target)
- (These distances seem to be under-estimated- I got the "51-80" message considerably further away than 80')
