Prerequisite[edit]
Briefing[edit]
(Dialog) Thubyrgeim
Ah, Deryk, isn't it? Are you eating well? An empty stomach distracts the mind and leads to hurried judgment. I must oft remind my arcanists to take meals, so ensconced do they become in their studies.
Speaking of such, have you been practicing your tactics with Carbuncle? I believe it is time to assess the improvement of your skills. As with your previous trial, I would have you defeat foes in lower La Noscea—three wild dodos and three tiny mandragoras to be precise.
Watch carefully the behavior of your opponents, formulate an effective strategy, and utilize your arcane entity to its fullest potential. I expect you back in time for dinner.
Description[edit]
Acting Guildmaster Thubyrgeim wishes to assess the improvement of your arcanima skills.
Description (Alternate)[edit]
In order to test your growing aptitude as an arcanist, Thubyrgeim sends you back to the wilds of lower La Noscea to battle more challenging opponents. Slay three wild dodos and three tiny mandragoras
Objectives[edit]
Slay wild dodos 0/3
Report to Thubyrgeim at the Arcanists' Guild
Inspect the crates found south of Zephyr Gate
Report to Thubyrgeim at the Arcanists' Guild
Debriefing[edit]
I see the creatures beyond the city walls posed you little threat. It is with great pleasure, then, that I formally recognize your initiation into the guild. From this day forth, you may proudly bear the title of "arcanist."
I suggest you continue your forays into the wilderness, and keep the pages of your grimoire turning—there is no finer teacher than the harsh mistress of experience.
And to commemorate this occasion, I gift you with this hunting log.
The enemies marked within its pages have been specifically chosen to challenge your abilities in arcanima. When you devise a new strategy or tactic, you now have a ready source of opponents on which to test it.
And when you feel you can command Carbuncle as easily as you might move your own limbs, return to me for further instruction. I will be waiting.
(The next arcanist quest will be available from Thubyrgeim upon reaching level 5.)
