Walkthrough

• Talk to Laila at (G-7) in Upper Jeuno. She tells you to find a way to make your dance "shine."
• Next, talk to Rhea Myuliah right beside her.
• Travel to Grauberg (S) and check the ??? at (F-5) for a cutscene. Avoid true sight Grauberg Hippogryph mobs along the way.
  • Your main job MUST be set to DNC to receive the cutscene.
  • You can use a rental Chocobo from Bastok Markets (S) or Pashhow Marshlands (S) to avoid the Truesight mobs along the way.
• Check the ??? again to spawn NM Migratory Hippogryph. If you zone before doing so, it will not spawn; you will have to check the ??? as DNC for the cutscene an additional time.
  • There are many Sidhe in the area of the ???. They will not cure you during the fight.
• Check the ??? again after defeating it to receive "The Essence of Dance" key item.
  • In parties in which more than one person has activated the quest, the Hippogryph NM must only be defeated once per party/alliance in order for all Dancers on the quest to get the second cutscene and the key item. Just be sure that everyone has examined the ??? at least once for the initial cutscene.
  • It is not possible to get the initial cutscene on Dancer, switch jobs to fight the NM, then switch back to Dancer after you've killed it to obtain the 2nd cutscene and key item.
• If someone has just defeated the NM, it may take a few minutes for the ??? to spawn another.
• Navigate to the permanent key item menu and actually "read" the key item.
• Talk to Laila at (G-7) in Upper Jeuno to receive a War Hoop (you must examine your key item first in order to get the cutscene and be on DNC).
