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) (J-9) and then go to the Mihgo's residence and speak with Romaa Mihgo (H-11). 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.
  • 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 (K-8) 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.
