Lo!

I accepted the quest from Thunder Hawk, went to Beadeux, managed to kill the NM with 2 quadav aggros as 54RDM/BLM, then continued to the prison @ I-8, the damn thing wouldnt show a cutscene, tried trading the quadav charm, still told me that it looks like a keyhole.
Any ideas?

Just wanted to let you all know that a lv.60Whm is more than capable of "Dealing" with this NM.He gave me three charms and 20xp.What a nice guy.Anyway,I just got done reading the posts for this and decided it was worth a shot.Might as well move to Selbina.By the way,I went as a 60Whm/26Thf...yes I know I was gimped,bu the NM didn't seem to mind a gimped subbed Whm pounding his turtle power post-terrior into dust XD.Now he's been added to the list right behind Serra.Taking one NM down at a time.WHM FTW!

it can drop multiple instances of the charm, I think it usually drops like 3-6 of them, but, he could only take 1, the rest would drop saying he "didn't meet the requirements"

I helped a RDM friend of mine finish this quest. I was BLM50/WHM, and she was RDM43/BLM21. Very easy fight. We even had many links, but they were little of a problem...thanks to Sleepga and Sleep II. ^^ Hehe, I opened the fight with Freeze. XD. She just kinda healed me during the fight. I actully went melee when I was low on MP, using my Scythe.

It seems that they've recently changed this NM from just a named mob, to an actual NM, cuz he used to check, but now he's Impossible to Guage. In any case sneak is all you'll need, and he's standing prior to the toughest quadav area, so a lvl 55+ doesn't get agro, or so.

I soloed Headhunter as a RDM54/BLM27.

Quadavs around were too weak and didn't aggro, except the ones in the path that leads to the deep part of Beadeaux, but these were too far to aggro.
De'Vyu conned Impossible to gauge to me so it's a NM, not only a named monster.
I went with updated gear and spells, an Ice Staff, and buffed with
- Protect III,
- Shell II,
- Stoneskin,
- Blaze Spikes,
- Regen,
- Refresh,
- Haste.

No food was needed, and I don't have Phalanx yet, I'm too poor ;_; (going for 200k on Remora). I was lucky and got no ads, although I was the only one in all Beadeaux at this time. It left me with 44 MP and over 400 HP.
After this all I had to do is sneak, go check the door, view cutscene and warp back to Jeuno, then run to Selbina (where I bought Blizard II cheap, btw ^^)

Hope this helps.

I used sleep bolts and Utsusemi. He got me in the red but only because I was kiting him around trying to avoid links. Not to mention my lvl 30 gloves/legs/ and feet armor. Not the best DEF in the world at that lvl. lol I had to use my two hour. He was hitting me for around 50-60 per hit if I remember correctly. All in all a pretty fun battle. If I had some bloody bolts it may have went smoother. But in the end I got that sucker good. XD

I killed him twice as a 42 NIN, first time solo and second time with a level 70 MNK. Both times he checked as EM to me. I was able to solo him the first time and didn't even hit yellow, so I'd say that as a 60 RNG/NIN you could easily take him.

I imagine you won't have much trouble with him. Today I was just hanging out in the area and decided to give him a shot solo at 49 WAR/THF.

At 49, he conned DC - - to me. Built up 300 TP and used bloody bolts on way too weak Copper and Old Quadavs in the nearby trenches to get up to full health.

Waited until there weren't a lot of other Quadavs nearby (all high Too Weak or Low Easy Prey to me). Sneak Attack > Silent Oil....hit him from behind for a crit and run to the corner where there was less of a chance of getting any adds.

He was hitting me for a good 50-80 per hit so I popped a Pear Au Lait within the first couple of hits to give me a little buffer of life.

Aggressor >> Warcry >> Mighty Strikes >> Berserk >> Sturmwind nailed him for 606 and 5 200+ crits later he lay twitching on the ground. In the end, he got me down to around 200-300hp.

In hindsight, the only thing I would've done different is eat some attack food to take him down a little quicker (almost got an add from a high too weak Quadav which would've certainly swung the tide back in his favor...but luckily I got the killing blow just as it came in to range).

You shouldn't get aggro unless you head for the jail, and even then most things were either Easy Prey or Decent Challenge to me at 49.

I soloed him as a lv53 thf/nin. He was hitting me for around 40-60 per hit. Fortunately, he only did about 200 damage total thanks to utsusemi and physical evasion II. However, the fight took forever, though, as I was only hitting for 20-30 :\. 25xp from the battle though :).

I didn't have any sneak oils. Consequently, I got aggro from an even match mythril quadav, so I had to [perfect dodge] + warp my way out of there....

I returned later with my 36whm to finish the quest. Wasn't too bad....

I had tried solo this quadav at level 51 for two times. Before that I checked the level of this quadav is 45 and it's "Easy Prey" for me.

I skip describing the first failure. First of all I killed some Bronze or Copper Quadavs to charge up my TP to 300%. Next I went to the place where near Headhunter. On the way I should get silenced to pass the cursed area therefore I waited for silence gone.

After that I used my sneak oil, casted Utsusemi and Sneak Attack at the back of Headhunter. Next I triggered the "Attack" button then I quickly pressed the macro to cast the Viper Bite. I hope it can make appearent damage to Headhunter for easy fighting thereafter but it reported to me: 150 damage....

sh*t... I knew this time I should fight this quadav hard again and I should count on time to cast Utsusemi to reduce the damage taken. Everything was okay during fight until another quadavs are linked. I unlocked the Headhunter and casted Flee to escape. Luckly I had planned the emergency route and at last I zoned out.

As a THF I think I should need a hand to fight this quadav, or better solo it at higher level... say level 55.

So I decide to get a map, figure I might need it for my AF.

I travel to Selbin, Talk to Thunder, and make my way to that infested Quadav marsh.

I'm a 50RNG/THF now. I should have subbed NIN, but it didn't cross my mind until it was too late to turn back really. I was farming beforehand.

I make my way delecately past any aggroing Quadav. There were only a couple, but it was still terrifying. One link and it'd all be over.

I finally fight the Headhunter. . I had built up TP beforehand, and unleashed a Piercing arrow. Ranged attacked a couple more times and used Barrage, Then I used Eagle Eye Shot.

This was the closest NM (or named Monster, whatever) that I had ever fought. (And I soloed the Dragoon Wyvern at level 42! .. but I subbed NIN then and had 4 potions)

In the end I had 18 of the 721 HP I started out with, had he got one more hit in I would have been finished.

I was lucky as hell.

However, the Quadavs past the Headhunter all conned EP or higher ... I'd be dead meat it one aggroed ... luckly I subbed THF (as I had forgotten to bring Silent Oils as well.... Yes, I was unprepared)

I Fleed past them and they never aggroed.

A Steel Quadav guarded the Jail cell, but I found a safe spot and waited for him to leave.

After the cutscene I had to get out of there .. I had forgotten to bring my Warp Scroll (I'm forgetting everything!)

I make a break for it and flee out of there ... only to get slaughtered by 30 Quadavs.

Ah well .. minus some EXP.. I got my map.

Thanks for the info on jail being at I-8. The only problem is getting there. The map is one of no clear connections.

Being at level 35 does not give me the chance to just look around slowly as sneak/invis seems to wear off at the point where I'm usually surrounded by mobs. Which means aggro and quick run for life or warp if lucky.

I have tried several times to find my way only to get fustrated. If someone has clear step by step directions on how to get there I would appreciate it. Thank you...

The jail is really close to where the headhunter spawns just go to I-8 and fall down into the lower area and its right there. I was afraid to fall down, fearing I wouldn't be able to get back up. Just go and trade the charm to it and you get a cutscene and a key item and head back to selbina to talk to the guy and you're done.

I did this with a 55 whm and even though we got 4 links during the fight we weren't in too much danger, the whm was a bit low on mp but neither one of us were in yellow hp. Maybe shes just that good ;)

You can only carry one of them at one time since they are Rare/EX.

First: get yourself nakid
Second: go to whichever country is in control of Zulkheim (dunes) Fill up entire inventory with la theine cabbage
teleport or outpost warp and get to selbina. trade the cabbage in stacks of 5 to the guy next to the sheep. He's not too far into selbina. Do this probably 15-18 times and you'll have hero fame in sandy bastok rabao selbina, and maybe even jeuno. Only suggestion: do this BEFORE you do tenshodo fame as this will lower tenshodo fame. This is probably the best quest in game just because it adds fame to so many places, and you will lose very little, maybe 1-2k per run total not including prices to warp/choco/etc. good luck!

Dustbucket is correct. Just north of where Dev'Yu Headhunter spawns is a gate. You go through that gate into the "Third" area of Beadeaux (if you have the map, you'll see what I mean). Just north of the gate is a trench. Drop over the lip into that trench and immediately do a 180. Behind you will be the door to the jail.

Extra Info: Make SURE you sneak/silent oil. Quadev's detect by sound, and so to the Big Jaw Pugils that are in that trench. Also, once you are over that lip into the trench, make sure you have a way out (I suggest a level 40 blm pal with warp II, or a scroll of instant warp from conquest points).

according tothe killing ifrit site ( http://www.killingifrit.com/page.php?id=111 ) the jail is at i-8, once square further north, sneak potion/silent oils/sneak spell are obviously a must

in case you didn't already notice the item required is quadav charm, not quadav jufu/bufu

Jail?

Can anyone explain the location of the prison at I-9? I did some scouting but couldn't find it, and the quadavs there were all tough for me at lvl 43, so i didn't want to risk aggroing them on my pt camping the NM.
I'll go back later with sneak potions, but would like some feedback on the jail loc.

Item?

Does "Quadav Bufu" really exist? Killed this guy many times for the Mission 10 quest, and all he's dropped are crystals, Beadaeux Chest Keys, and the Quadav Charms (rare/ex, for Mission)

Does the charm get used up when you open the door? I want to get it for mission 10, but does this mean after that, I need to get a second one to do this mission?

if you read the message on the gate of the entrance... it says something like the charm is the key...

It may not start dropping until after you've talked to the quest guy. Some things need to be activated by the quest before they drop/work.

The level requirement is not 45, I got this quest at level 29 or so. You just need enough fame.

True, but the level of the NM mob is 45 so I doubt you'd be able to finish this quest untill aprox level 45

Soloing an NM thats the same level as you is impossible. COnsider this: a Level 45 is Even Match to a Level 45 character, and Even Matches are NOT soloable unless a RDM or BST. an NM's are much tougher and stronger than their level, so it makes him even tougher than a 45.

I've soloed this guy twice as a level 45 thf/nin. With Utsusemi: Ichi and Bloody Bolts I didn't even use any food/drink or my 2-hour. I can solo most EM mobs if I don't link and keep the fight 1 on 1. I can even solo some T mobs. You just have to know what you're doing.

Show me a RDM that can solo and EM past level 30, and I'll quit this game... I've never been able to solo an EM after level 10... just cuz you can cure, doesn't make up for the extreme lack of damage you do. I think a RNG could solo and EM... so maybe you just made a spelling error.

My brother is a 35 whm and he can solo decents or even matches if he's careful. He has his divine magic healing enfeebling and club skills capped. Really you can solo with every job as long as you know what your doing and don't neglect your skills. The only reason people don't solo with whm is they lose all offensive capabilities in their party by only curing and resting during battle.

I am a level 67 Rdm on the Cerberus server, and I have no problems soloing easy prey, decent challenge, or even match mobs. Tough mobs are difficult though, but I can usually manage it if I'm careful. I sub Whm, and I have fairly decent gear, including the Wize Wizard's Anelace. It's not too hard to solo if I keep myself buffed, it just takes a while

I have seen RDMs 41+ solo T and VT, you are correct in saying that a lvl 10 till lvl 30 RDM have problems surviving soloing EM, but they are talking about a lvl 45 mob so a lvl 45 RDM with capped sword should con EM to, at lvl 33 u get phalanx, at 34 u get stoneskin. So at 34 a RDM with blink, stoneskin, phalanx, aquaviel+ the right enspell should be able to solo EM again. and at lvl 41 with Refresh and Convert Ive seen friends solo VT(Extremly slow I might Add)

Even slower than Rdm but just as effective Blm are also awsome soloers.

With capped Enfeebling magic and a dark staff, Blm can: bind, nuke, sleep, rest, untill the end of time and take down IT. Though typicly for safty and sanaty I dont do anything stronger than tough.

Yeah the mobs in this game are hard but if you got skill the following jobs in my experience are awsome solo artists, Blm Rdm Smn Bst Nin. Also De'vyu Headhunter is a chump id say maybe = to a lv 40 mob non NM by how hard he was hitting my taru self.
