Rewards
  • Bastok icon.png Rank 4
  • 5,000 Gil

Note: Missions 3-3 to 5-2 can be done with any Nation, as they are all ultimately the same. (They will require cutscenes in their own cities, but the bulk of the work is identical for each.)

Walkthrough

Trade enough Crystals to the Conquest NPC to raise your Rank bar and unlock the Mission, then accept it from the Gate Guard.

  • Speak to Lucius, located at the Aide's Office (J/I-9) in the Metalworks HP #1 until you receive Key Item Letter to the ambassador.
  • Head to the Bastokan Embassy in Ru'Lude Gardens (H-10) and speak with Goggehn.
    • If you already possess the Delkfutt Key icon.png Delkfutt Key (trade it to the door) or the Key Item Delkfutt key (no trading needed) then you may skip this climb:
      • Head to Lower Delkfutt's Tower (E-8) Map 1 and enter the Basement by clicking the Cermet Door. Once you go through the door, proceed to (K/L-9) and click the Cermet Door for a cutscene. (Note: Another player using a key does not work.)
      • Return to the Bastokan Embassy in Ru'Lude Gardens and click the Door: Bastokan Emb. for a cutscene to complete the Mission.
    • If you do not possess the Key, start the climb process detailed below:
      • You may be Tractored through this Basement door without the Key. If you decide to go this route, proceed to the "Obtaining Delkfutt Key Short Way" section.
      • Otherwise, read the "Obtaining Delkfutt Key" section.
  • Head to Lower Delkfutt's Tower using the Survival Guide teleportation, Outpost warp, or Home Point warp.
  • You will now likely need to climb to the 10th floor of Delkfutt's Tower in order to gain a Delkfutt Key icon.png Delkfutt Key in order to access the Basement of the Tower:

Obtaining Delkfutt Key Short Way

This is the shortest route. You may be Tractored through the door to the Basement at Lower Delkfutt's Tower (E-8) Map 1 without the Key if a party member already has it.

  • Next, you can open the door at (J-8).
  • Click it to travel to Upper Delkfutt's Tower. Walk forward then click the ??? at the bottom of the stairs to be teleported directly to:
  • Porphyrion, kill this NM then trade the Delkfutt Key icon.png Delkfutt Key it drops to the Elevator directly beside it.
  • After using the elevator, proceed down the spiral stair case for two zones, through the Cermet Door in Map 5 at (I-9) Upper Delkfutt's Tower.
  • Skip to the "Finishing the Mission" section below.

Obtaining Delkfutt Key

This process involves a VERY long climb with lots of dangerous monsters. If you are below level 50, bring someone high level with you or a party of at least 6.
Sneak/Invisible (Status) or Prism Powder icon.png Prism Powder/Silent Oil icon.png Silent Oil are also recommended.
Some form of Reraise and Warp is also helpful.

    • Enter and follow the right wall until you reach the stairs at (E/F-6).
  • Floor 2:
    • Follow the left wall until you reach the stairs at (I-9).
  • Floor 3:
    • Follow the right wall until you reach the Teleporter at (G-6).
  • Floor 4: (Middle Delkfutt's Tower Map 1)
    • Follow the right wall past 2 Teleporters and go up the stairs at (J-6).
  • Floor 5: (half way there)
    • Enter the door into a hallway on your right at (I-7) then follow the left wall until you see a stairway leading north at (H-10).
  • Floor 6:
    • At the top of the stairs follow the right wall to a Teleporter at (J-10).
  • Floor 7:
    • In this big room head nort-hwest to a stairway at (G-7).
  • Floor 8:
    • Follow the left wall to another stairway at (J-7).
  • Floor 9:
    • Head south to a stairway that leads back down at (J-10).
  • Floor 8: (again)
    • Head west to a stairway leading back up at (G-10). Do not fall down the hole in the floor!
  • Floor 9: (again)
    • Follow the left wall until you reach a Teleporter at (F-6).
  • Floor 10: (Upper Delkfutt's Tower Map 1)
    • When you zone in head through the door to the south-east and down a hallway. You will find a door on your right at (H-7). This door is guarded by Mimas, a Gigas NM that uses Hundred Fists.
    • After killing Mimas and clearing the hallway enter the door at (H-7) into a large room. This room will be filled with Gigas and a NM named Porphyrion.
      • Try to pull Porphyrion out into the hallway without linking any of the other Gigas. Summoner or a high level helper is useful for this.
  • Kill Porphyrion and any aggro you may have. Porphyrion will drop 6 Delkfutt Key icon.png Delkfutt Keys. If you need more then 6 you will have to wait 10 minutes for him to re-pop.
  • Once you have your Key, trade it to the elevator on the floor at (H-8) inside Porphyrion's room.
  • Walk down the LONG staircase after using the elevator to get to the Basement.

Finishing the Mission

  • Once you reach the Basement head east into a large room and trade your Delkfutt Key icon.png Delkfutt Key (or interact if you have the Key Item Delkfutt key) on the door at (K/L-9) for a cutscene.
    • If you do not get the cutscene you are probably at the wrong door.
  • Return to the Bastokan Embassy in Ru'Lude Gardens and click the Door: Bastokan Emb. for a cutscene to complete the Mission.
