What you will be doing
What you will be doing is the Utsusemi: Ichi Scroll, Tonko: Ichi Scroll, and the
Kurayami: Ichi Scroll Quest on a Level 1 mule. This guide is more advanced than my
other guide, but it's also more profitable. You will also need at least 360K to do
this. If you do not have this much Gil, keep mining with my basic guide until you do
have. Following these guidelines, you will make up to 1million Gil. The first time
you use this Guide it will be a little scary and a little time consuming, but after
you have done it once you will be 600K-1million Gil richer and the guide will be a
piece of cake ! :-)
What you will need
· Level 1 mule in Bastok
· 360,000 Gil (You need this to buy the items needed for the quest, you may also
need more Gil if you cannot buy all of the Zinc Ore for 1K a piece.)
· A character in Jeuno (This is not needed, but I highly recommend it)
The Guide: Part 1
Now that you have a Lv 1 mule in Bastok, drop every item that is on the Lv 1
character (this will free up space for the items you are about to buy). Once you
have freed up some space go onto your main character and send 360,000 Gil to your Lv
1 character. Now that you have the Gil on your mule run to the closest Auction
House. Once you are at the Auction House, choose "Materials" then “Goldsmithing".
The next step is to purchase 30 pieces of Zinc Ore (Zinc Ore costs about 1K a
piece), now that your inventory is full of Zinc Ore run to your Mog house and put
all 30 pieces into your Mog safe. Run back to the auction house and purchase 30 more
pieces of Zinc Ore and then run back to your Mog house and place 20 of the 30 pieces
of Zinc Ore into your Mog safe. Your Mog safe should now have 50 pieces of Zinc Ore
(50/50). Now that your Mog safe is full, you should have 10 pieces of Zinc Ore in
your Gobby Bag inventory. Run to the Auction House and purchase 20 more pieces of
Zinc Ore. Your Gobby Bag should now be 30/30 with Zinc Ore.
The Guide: Part 2
Now that you have purchased a total of 80 pieces of Zinc Ore, you will now do a
short quest. The next step is to run to Port Bastok. When you are in Port Bastok
open up your map, and on the map you will see a building labeled "Warehouse 2" (This
building is located at F-6). Run to Warehouse 2 and go inside. Run to the basement
of Warehouse 2 and talk to the NPC by the name of Talib; after the cutscene with
Talib, trade 1 Zinc Ore to him. He will ask you to take a item to a Galka located in
Bastok Mines. The Galka is located in a small house at (H-5) (His name is
Parraggoh). Once you have spoken to Parraggoh he will reward you with a Bronze Knife
(Drop the knife, it's worthless and just takes up space). After you have completed
that simple quest run back to Port Bastok and speak with Talib again. He will tell
you that if you trade him 4 pieces of Zinc Ore he will reward you. The reward is 350
Gil, Give Talib all of the Zinc Ore in your inventory and Mog Safe (The reason you
are giving Talib all of the Zinc Ore is to build fame in a town called Norg, if you
did not have fame in this town you can not do the Scroll Quests). Now that you have
given Talib 80 pieces of Zinc Ore run to the closest Auction House and purchase 28
more pieces of Zinc Ore. Now run back to Talib and trade him the 28 pieces of Zinc
Ore you just purchased. After trading Talib 108 pieces of Zinc Ore you now have
enough fame in Norg to do the Scroll quests.
Congratulations you're half way done with the Guide !
The Guide: Part 3
The next step in the guide is to run to from Bastok to Jeuno. This is quite a run,
but if you use the Speedhack program included with these guides, it will only take
about 5 minutes to run there. Now that you are in Jeuno run to the closest Auction
House and select "Others" >> "Beast-made" and buy 1 "Silver Beastcoin", this should
cost about 1K. After you have purchased the Silver Beastcoin select "Medicines" and
purchase a stack of "Silent Oil" and then buy a stack of "Prism Powder", this will
cost about 50K. Now select "Armor" >> "Legs" and purchase 10 Rusty Subligars, this
should cost about 30K, then select "Armor" >> "Feet" and purchase 10 "Rusty
Leggings", this will cost about 10K. The next step is to run to Port Jeuno and
purchase a Kazham Airship Pass, this should cost around 148K (You can purchase the
Airship pass from a Galka located at I-7. The Galka's name is Guddal). Now that you
have an airship pass head to Kazham. Once you are in Kazham run out to Yuhtunga
Jungle and speak with the NPC that is about 10 steps in front of you. He will ask if
you would like to set your home point there, choose yes (**NOTE** When running to
the NPC to set your home point, be aware of Goblin that spawns near the NPC). Now
that your home point is set use 1 prism powder, and 1 silent oil. Your next step is
tricky but if you use the Speedhack it is very easy. Run from Yuhtunga Jungle to the
Sea Serpent Grotto zone, this is located at E-11 (I have included an image showing
the route to the Zone, the name of the image is "Yuhtunga").
Now that you are inside Sea Serpent Grotto use 1 "Silent Oil" and run to the Norg
Zone, this is located at F-2 (I have included an image showing the route to the
Zone, the name of the image is "SeaSerpantGrotto").
Now that you are in Norg set your home point and then run to H-7 and speak to a NPC
by the name of Heizo. After speaking with Heizo trade him your 10 Rusty Leggings, he
will then reward you the scroll Dokumori: Ichi (Sells for 25K on my server).
Standing next to Heizo is a NPC by the name of Heiji, speak to him. After speaking
to Heiji trade him 10 Rusty Subligars, he will then reward you the scroll Kurayami:
Ichi (Sells for 200K on my server). The next step is to speak to a NPC by the name
of Keal, he is located at H-8. He will ask you to "Bring back a sealed iron box from
the Sahagin-infested Norg vault.". After speaking with Keal zone back into Sea
Serpent Grotto. Use 1 of your Silent Oils and run to C-5 and click on the "???" (I
have included a image that shows the route to the ???, the name of the image is
"Tonko").
Once you click on the "???" run back to Norg (or if you remembered to set your
homepoint in Norg you can just run up to a monster and die :-P) and speak with
Keal, he will reward you the scroll Tonko: Ichi (Sells for 65K - 100K on my
server). After you have obtained the Tonko: Ichi scroll, run to H-7 and speak with
a NPC by the name of Laisrean (he is kinda hidden in a very tiny room). Laisrean
will ask you to fetch an item in Sea Serpent Grotto. Head to Sea Serpent Grotto and
use 1 Silent Oil and run to N-14 (I have included a image showing the route to
N-14, the name of the image is "Utsusemi").
Once you are at N-14 you will see a door, click on the door until it says "You see
some silver shavings near the indent on this wall." After it says this, trade your
Silver Beastcoin to the door and it will open up. Once the door has opened up run
to H-3 and examine the "???", there will be a short cut scene (I have included a
map showing the route to H-3, the name of this image is “Utsusemi2”).
Now run back to Norg (or if you remembered to set your home point in Norg you can
just walk up to a monster and die). Once inside Norg run to Laisrean and speak to
him, he will reward you with the scroll Utsusemi: Ichi (this is worth
850K-1.2million on my server).
Congratulations, you're done !
TIPS*
· If bastok does not have 108 pieces of Zinc Ore in stock, you can just log off onto
your character in Jeuno and purchase some from there, also if you have a Sandoria
mule you can buy some from there as well.
· If Jeuno is out of stock, of Rusty Leggings, Rusty Subligars, Prism Powder, and
Silent Oil, just run to Bastok and buy them from there.
someone already posted this guide.
1. sneak and invis doesnt last long on a lvl 1 char so do you really wanna invest all that money and might nt be able to make it through the mobs
2. are you forgetting about kazham keys because to get to norg you will need those too in my opinion this mehod is not worth all the time and effort
you don't need the keys if you're willing to waste something like 50k to buy the airship pass to Kazham... but with current prices I'm not sure spending 360k+ is worth it for 3 scrolls...
