Summary

The spirit of Curilla's father Rainemard seems to be trying to say something.

Walkthrough

You must have completed The Crimson Trial - RDM AF1 and Enveloped in Darkness - RDM AF2, and activated Borghertz's Vermillion Hands to obtain this quest.

Start the quest by speaking to Curilla at I-9 in Chateau d'Oraguille. She will ask you to continue your investigation on what had happened to Raimenard, her father.

Next, head to K-6 in Southern San d'Oria and speak with Sharzalion. He says in order to communicate with a spirit, you must throw an old coin into the fountain in the ruins of Fei'Yin. Fei'Yin is located on the far north end of Beaucedine Glacier.

Head to Fei'Yin. Entering with the quest activated will cause a notorious monster ghost named Miser Murphy to spawn at H-8 on the first map, in the room with the large fountain. Head to the fountain room and kill Miser Murphy, which drops an Antique Coin. Trade the coin to the point at the north end of the fountain, also in H-8, for a cutscene.

After the event, return to Southern San d'Oria and speak with Sharzalion. Then speak with Daggao, the Galka down by the stage to the right. Daggao says he found a strange box in Garlaige Citadel that could possibly be opened with a Nail Puller.

Head to Garlaige Citadel. You need at least four people in your party to get through the first banishing gate. Just past the gate to the left is a room with an oaken box. Clear the room, then examine the box. A notorious monster called Guardian Statue will spawn. Kill the Guardian Statue and it will drop a Nail Puller. Trade this to the oaken box for another cutscene.

Return to Northern San d'Oria. As soon as you zone in, you will receive a final cutscene and receive your Warlock's Chapeau.

Lol, finally beat Miser Murphy and for all you people who think you need a high level, well you don't. You can just have another rdm go who also needs it or a blm. All I did to beat him was use gravity to the entrance, then I would zone. Me and a blm both put up stoneskin and blink, for 2 clicks and go back inside. Then I used dia 2 right as he used most powerfull spell then we both zoned again and resting and used stoneskin and blink but only do this for at most 2 clicks. Then we zoned again and cast poison 2 and one of us cast burn, and then leave. We repeated this for like 30 minutes but then he did eventually die. For those who don't know why dia and poison is because those 2 spells will stick on him even while your zoned. But key is to only zone for at max 2 clicks or like 20 sec's and rezone. Neither of us ever got hit or hurt so if you want to beat him I would suggest try it. :)

I can almost do this, but he keeps hitting me with sleep as I zone...

Update :

This just caused major problems ; ;

Some white mages came along and got aggro from him while passing through and died, I died trying to help them. It was working though before they came. I had him down about 10% in only a few minutes. I think if I make a shout warning macro for every time I zone it will work.

I tried to kill Miser Murphy last night with about 12 people. Most of us where 60+ and we had a 64 pld tanking him. The first 3 times we killed him pretty quickly. But on the 4th try my turn I seemed to have spawned the satan version of him and we all got whooped quickly. We ended up getting an alliance of 18 and tried to beat him, we still got beat pretty badly, not sure what was up with this spawn but we tried him 6 times before saying lets leave and come back another time. So me and a friend came back the next night and I was letting him lead and once he was in the room he said Miser Murphy was still there. So either he had not vanished from the night before or someone else had spawned him. So we still tried fighting him another 3 times and got whooped not sure but what level is he supposed to be?

This thing is cake, a guy i know pretty much solo'd it at lvl 73thf/nin with a lvl 60 rdm hasting him.

walkthrough correct

incorrect, the walkthrough is right, I didn't go near the fountain and he spawned. i think its as soon as a RDM zones into FeiYin

After countless hours of begging and bribing everyone in Jeuno for help killing the statue, a lvl 72 SMN sends me a tell saying I can solo. I say "OK." We head off to GC. The hardest part was getting the first gate open. After that, he whipped out Carby and Fenrir one after the other and killed the statue in about 10 minutes no problem. Purpose of the post is...If you get fed up with lack of people available to help, just go after one SMN. GL

Just did Miser today 5 times, I went on my lvl 60 brd along with an alliance of 13 ppl ranging from 58-73. This guy wasn't any problem really, just very annoying.

Tested and proven though: Dispel will be reisted pretty much 100% of the time, but Finale works 100% of the time. I took off his ice spikes every time they came up and no, I don't have a military harp.

Like to shout out to all the guys that helped, thanks soooo much ^.^ and sorry to Warhammer who ended up dying when we went after the whm AF3 NM too.
I got it done

Well I lucked out and stumbled across an alliance that was forming to go do this quest. We went in with 12 ranging from lvls 55(me) to lvl 71 and we owned miser murphy each time with no deaths. Then we decided to help the whms get their AF3 and lost 1 person fighting those NM's. After all that we went to the citadel for the second NM fight, 3 red mages needed it and we 12 ppl lvl55-74 this time. first fight we lost a 55 whm because we stayed in the room and it spammed it AOE so for the second 2 the mages all stood just outside the door and cured and none of us got hit with the AOE and the fights were so easy, so thank you to everyone who helped me and I can't wait to actually reach lvl 60 so I can wear all my AF.

We did this with 5 RDMS and full alliance on Diabolos, ranged from 52-71 mostly all 60+, and this doll was hard- its AOE attack knocked the mages a few times, but we did 5 times- no prob-
check out a screenshot of the doll:

Finished this over the past two nights with the help of a full alliance of 55+ and a few high levels. The ghost is definately easier. He does have a 10-min respawn time so if you are taking a group of RDM that need to get this done use that 10min to med between battles and maybe clear out the room. Also remember that the bats will aggro to you even at 72+ while you are resting so you may want to sneak yourself before you /heal.

The doll was a lot harder only because he LOVES to spam his AoE. We lost a lv56 DRG during the first battle and a lv61 + 66 WHM during the 4th. Watch your levels and mages stand back.

Also, if you have a RDM who has NOT done Fei'Yin he can still do the 2nd half first as long as a RDM who has done Fei'Yin spawns the mob. You can continue to respawn the mob as long as you have not received the CS from the oaken box, we did it and it works so this is a fact.

One a final note. I would add that we also did the WHM AF3 while in Fei'Yin, he was harder than the RDM ghost but cake compared to the doll. This is just IMHO seeing that we did murphy 8x and the statue 4x but only did the WHM's shadow 1x.

Did this today with my LS:

RDM56/BLM28
RDM59/WHM29
WAR59/NIN24
RNG59/NIN29
SMN58/WHM29
SAM61/WAR30
BRD63/WHM31
* I'm not 100% sure if all of those are accurate.

We got it down to about 25% HP and then it suddenly hit the SAM for about 800 damage and killed him. Then it killed the WAR. RNG used Eagle Eye Shot and Sidewinder and its health meter barely moved. Then the RNG died, followed by the RDMs, then the BRD, then the SMN (After using Inferno).

Basically, it kicked our asses.
Rdm 52 looking for help

Hello!
I am on Odin server and am currently trying to set up either a really high level party to <<Help me out!>> or get an alliance together. One problem I have is that I do not have nor do I desire the windy fame of 40 to get the map of Fei'Yin. This <<Notorious Monster>> is level 60ish and therefore a regular old party should be able to tool on it. High level help would be appreciated greatly. Please let me know. Thank you.

There is a tip (not sure if its true) but you can DISPEL the life steal attack of miser murphy... as long as it doesn't resist heh.

Okay listen Guardian doll, as sick as this is gunna sound is soloable. First get behind the `1st banishing gate and run a sqaure around the area and see if the axe beak nm is out or if anything will agg you. I did this at 60 and the fallens and bats did not agg me. Next throw up blink and stoneskin and phalanx and spawn the nm. Next cast poison 2 and bio 2 and run. Turn a corner and cast either bind or gravity. Guardian doll will eventually begin to resist, so switch to bind or gravity and keep swapping them out, whil casting poison 2 and bio 2 to do damage to the nm and keep running it around the square. Rebuff when necessary, convert when necessary and it will be dead in about an hour to 90 min. Just becareful
