Notes
- You cannot flag this quest if you already have a Weapon Skill NM quest in your quest log.
- You may have to speak with Jaucribaix twice if you have started but not finished A Thief in Norg!?
- You will only be able to flag this quest by rezoning and speaking to Jaucribaix again if The Sacred Katana is not finished.
- You can only do one WSNM quest at a time. However, you can cancel it by talking to the NPC that gave you the quest.
Walkthrough
- Talk to Jaucribaix in Norg as Samurai level 71+ to receive the Tachi of Trials and a
Weapon Training Guide.
- Your Great Katana skill must be at base 250 or higher. Gear and merits do not count towards your skill when activating this quest.
- Use the Tachi of Trials until the latent effect disappears.
- You must perform Weapon Skills and Skillchains on monsters that directly grant experience points.
- Weapon Skills performed under Level Sync count.
- Weapon Skills performed in Reives will count.
- You receive 5 points for opening/soloing a weaponskill, 7 points for closing a Lv.1 Skillchain, 9 points for closing a Lv.2 Skillchain and 11 points for closing a level 3 Skillchain.
- You must accumulate 300 total points.
- The latent effect vanishes when you have accumulated 300 WS points. You do not need to unequip and reequip the weapon for the latent effect to disappear.
- Once you no longer receive the latent effect, head back to Norg and trade the Tachi of Trials back to Jaucribaix. The weapon is lost and you receive a
Map to the Annals of Truth and instructions to head to Kuftal Tunnel.
- NOTE:You can be any job from this part forward.
- Once in Kuftal Tunnel go to (L-7) on the map to the right and click the ??? to spawn the NM named Kettenkaefer.
- Once the NM is dead, reexamine the ??? to obtain the
Annals of Truth. - Bring this back to Jaucribaix for your reward.
