Tips

  • The first part never leaves Dion and Floran Village: Maria keeps the grocery of Dion, Lucas guards the town and Creta tells fortunes in Floran. Expect to run between them several times.
  • Shackle is level 45, ten levels above the quest. It lives in Dragon Valley and in the crater of the Ivory Tower; ask for help if you start the mark at 35.
  • The materials for Casian are spread over four hunting grounds, and the last one, Enchanted Gargoyle, is level 44 as well. Many players finish this mark closer to level 40.
