Bounty: Dire Straits

Pre-Requisite: Story Progression Related

Difficulty: 1/5

Target:
  • Eka
  • Dovi
  • Tori

Skills List:
  • Eka
    • Paralyzing Bite [P/S]
    • Web [S]
    • Leech [D]
  • Dovi
    • Paralyzing Bite [P/S]
    • Web [S]
    • Leech [D]
  • Tori
    • Paralyzing Bite [P/S]
    • Web [S]
    • Leech [D]

Location: Frass Chasm [B-4]

Description: Windwalker kids were set on by three direspiders in Frass Chasm, Kill the beasts, but beware their Paralysing Bite.

Suggested Level: Level 45+

Guilder Reward: 1350 G

EXP Reward: 2250 EXP

Guild Point Reward: 20000 P

Reward Items:
  • Elixir x 3
  • Revival Herb x 3

Walkthrough: Head to Baccea and take the western exit at [A-3] to enter Frass Chasm. This will be the most efficient way to locate your bounty unless you are already in its vicinity. You should already know how to travel along these routes using the Giant Dandelions. You will get two options when interacting with them; travel North or South. If you travel North, it will take you to where the upper arrow is pointing, and if you choose South, it will take you to the bottom destination. For a more detailed route, after you enter Frass Chasm using the western exit of Baccea, travel south at the Dandelion at [F-7], travel north at [D-7], travel north at [C-6], travel north at [C-5] and you will be in the piece of land where your bounties are located.

Eka, Dovi, and Tori are all Windspider Sprogs, and they are weak against Earth and Slash attacks. Their Paralyzing Bit attack can paralyze you, so carry a few Antiplegia Roots or use the Unbind spell with you if you keep failing the quest. Also, use Haste to counter its Web attack which lowers your speed. Those are the two attacks they will ever use. Focus on one target at a time, keep healing your party members, and this bounty will be a cinch.




Bounty: Eight Legs of Death

Pre-Requisite: Story Progression Related

Difficulty: 2/5

Target:
  • Aestal

Skills List:
  • Aestal
    • Shockwave [P]
    • Attack [P]
    • Dire Influence [B]
    • Acid Net [M/D]
    • Trample [P]
    • Thread Shell [M/S]
    • Spawn [Summon]

Location: The Lagnish Desert [I-7]

Description: Witnesses are telling tales of a giant spider that melts weapons with an acidic body fluid. Kill it in the name of armorers everywhere.

Suggested Level: Level 45+

Guilder Reward: 1350 G

EXP Reward: 2250 EXP

Guild Point Reward: 20000 P

Reward Items:
  • Emerald Spear x 1
  • Chromium Pearl Lv. 8 x 1
  • Guardian Pearl Lv. 8 x 1

Walkthrough: The quickest way to get to Aestal, a Dire Firespider, is to head to Albana first, and then enter the Lagnish Desert through the northern exit. You will, then, find it at [I-7] towards the eastern part of the map.

Like all Direspiders, you will mostly be dealing with physical and debuffing moves. Fortify your party and dispatch all nearby enemies before engaging Aestal. Focus on its legs and head to knock it over. When it summons several Spider Sprogs, use any AOE attack, preferably Water type, to kill them quickly. Repeat the process until Aestal is killed. A Knight is recommended for this fight to make quick work of the enemies.




Bounty: Spider Fighter

Pre-Requisite: Story Progression Related

Difficulty: 2/5

Target:
  • Weald

Skills List:
  • Weald
    • Attack [P]
    • Dire Influence [B]
    • Spawn [Summon]
    • Paralyzing Net [M/S]
    • Trample [P]
    • Thread Shell [M]
    • Shockwave [P]

Location: Balastor Plain [G-5]

Description: A mysterious plant-based spider is roaming Balastor Plain. Track it down and bring back some body parts for science.

Suggested Level: Level 50+

Guilder Reward: 1500 G

EXP Reward: 2500 EXP

Guild Point Reward: 30000 P

Reward Items:
  • Brilliant Tabar x 1
  • Chromium Pearl Lv. 8 x 1
  • Guardian Pearl Lv. 8 x 1

Walkthrough: Weald is a Dire Windspider and it is located at [G–5] in the Balastor Plain.

Fortify your party before entering the battle since you will be dealing with mostly physical attacks. I highly recommend bringing a party of Knights just to be on the safe side. Deal Earth elemental and Slash damages to speed up the hunt. Moments after you enter into battle with it, the Windspider will spawn 4 Spider Sprogs. Deal with them as soon as they spawn with AOE attacks to avoid getting your speed slowed. Focus on either the Windspider’s legs or its head to knock it over. Repeat until you dispatch your bounty.




Bounty: Inconsiderate Neighbor

Pre-Requisite: Story Progression Related

Difficulty: 2/5

Target:
  • Goliath (Golutus)

Skills List:
  • Goliath (Golutus)
    • Swipe [P]
    • Heavy Hammer [P]
    • Trample [P]
    • Guard [B]
    • Atlas' Hammer [P]

Location: The Van Haven Waste [F-2]

Description: A terrible giant is roaring day and night on the Van Haven Waste, and it's driving the locals mad. Go shut him up... permanently!

Suggested Level: Level 50+

Guilder Reward: 1500 G

EXP Reward: 2500 EXP

Guild Point Reward: 30000 P

Reward Items:
  • Sacred Axe x 1
  • Chromium Pearl Lv. 8 x 1
  • Guardian Pearl Lv. 8 x 1

Walkthrough: I found the easiest way to get to Goliath, if you aren’t already nearby, was to enter The Van Haven Waste through Sinca Village. After doing so, navigate through the caves to reach him at [F–2].

Goliath is an Elite Fire Giant, so you will be applying the same strategy you used in the bounty hunt “Tall, Cold One,” the only difference being the fact that Goliath is weak against Ice attacks.




Bounty: Eviction Notice

Pre-Requisite: Story Progression Related

Difficulty: 3/5

Target:
  • Python

Skills List:
  • Python
    • Wing Thrash [P]
    • Poison Breath [M/S]
    • Ultrasonic Wave [D]
    • Bite [P]
    • Cylone [P]
    • Iron Tail [P]
    • Bite [P]

Location: The Dogma Rift [B-5]

Description: A horrific Wyvern that can split boulders is living in the Dogma Rift. Head over there and convince the beast to move out.

Suggested Level: Level 50+

Guilder Reward: 1500 G

EXP Reward: 2500 EXP

Guild Point Reward: 30000 P

Reward Items:
  • Dragonslayer x 1
  • Chromium Pearl Lv. 8 x 1
  • Guardian Pearl Lv. 8 x 1

Walkthrough: You will heading to the Dogma Rift, [B–5] to be precise, and fighting a Solum Wyvern this time around. Solum Wyverns are weak to the Wind Element and Slash attacks.

Focus on its legs and wings to knock it over and attack its Torso for maximum damage. When Python takes flight, switch to a ranged character or stick with close combat aerial attacks. His Ultrasonic Wave attack, which reduces your accuracy, can be particularly nasty; I’ve had instances where I would miss 3-5 attacks in a row even if my DEX was at a reasonable number. It is highly recommended that you bring a Knight to this fight, or else you are in for a very long fight.
