Walkthrough

• Talk to Leepe-Hoppe after JP midnight after completing Tuning In to receive this quest.
• Travel to Kazham and speak with Jakoh Wahcondalo (the Chieftainess) and then go to the Mihgo's residence and speak with Romaa Mihgo. She will ask you to travel to Gemini Falls in Yuhtunga Jungle. There, you will see a ??? overlooking the falls and some pools of water (K-7). Click on the ???, watch a cutscene, and fight the five spawned NM bees called Nasus. Please note: the cliff with the ??? is accessible through Yuhtunga Jungle without going through Ifrit's Cauldron.
  • Soloable by a level 75 job. It's recommended to have Cure or Sleepga.
  • Soloable by a level 73 NIN/WAR
  • Soloable by a lvl 75 SMN/WHM using Thunderspark
  • Soloable by a level 75 THF/WAR (Bloody Bolts came in handy)
  • Soloable by a level 73 WHM/BLM using Sleepga, Haste, and Stoneskin.
  • Soloable by a level 75 PLD/RDM very easy. Stoneskin dropped only once during fight.
• Once defeated, re-examine the ??? and watch another small cutscene.
  • Please note that only one person may progress per fight. The fight must be re-done for each person completing this scene, with a respawn time of approximately 15 minutes or relogging between fights.
• After the fight, talk to Romaa Mihgo again for a cutscene.
• Next, to get by Gilgamesh's guard, you will need to gather a bunch of Habanero Peppers (Ex), which are dropped off Mantraps in Misareaux Coast, a serving of Black Curry, and a Mutton Tortilla.
• Travel to Norg and speak with Comitiolus who guards the door to Gilgamesh. Trade him the Black Curry, the Mutton Tortilla, and the Habanero Peppers. Watch a cutscene with Kamui where you are told by Ildy-Goldy to travel to Beaucedine Glacier and talk with the Tarutaru Rhinostery adventurers in the tower at (I-7).
• Once you arrive, talk to Torino-Samarino for another cutscene and 6000 gil.
• Return to Leepe-Hoppe in Windurst Waters to get the finishing dialogue and the Cache-nez.
