Chart Quest Details!!!Follow

Pre Quest: Inside the Belly
Fish: Bhelfin Marlin
Charts: Pirate's Chart and Brigand's Chart
Locations: Buburimu Peninsula and Valkrum Dunes

Details: Fish Selbina/Mhaura Ferry and Fish Bhelfin Marlins. I use Composite and Sliced Bluetail as bait. Take the fish to Zaldon in Selbina Fishing Guild. You have a chance of getting either of the two Charts. If not he rewards you with 150gil.


Brigand's Chart:

Go to Buburimu Peninsula and trade it to the ??? at Khoonta Beach. This is a One person event(Note: I had party members that could still kill the mobs that I pulled up and didn't get the lvl cap). Lvl cap is 20. The Old man wants you to fish up his Penquin Ring from the water. You will see it shining in the water. I assume if your lucky you'll get the ring, but all I got was 2 treasure chest that both contained Wooden Flowerpots(rare). I also fished up 500gil and a mob(Puffer Pugil). I only got about 4 cast out of it before the time expired.


Pirate's Chart:

Go to Valkrum Dunes and trade it to the ??? at Whitebone Beach. This is a 4 person event. My suggestion is to bring 2 blm or bard(sleepers) and a Tank. The little taru warns you that theres 3 of them comming!! A Manta type mob, Sahgin type mob, and a Crab type mob will spawn. Sleep 2 mobs and have tank start fighting the 3rd one. All this time you should be fishing like crazy to get the ring. I've only done this once and we only had 3 of us. The 3rd one killed me before it could be slept. I managed to fish up a Tarutaru Snare from the water before I died.

Once I do this more I will update^^


Items so far:

Wooden Flowerpot(Rare): Furnishing, A Simple Flowerpot made of wood. Light+1 Storage+1

Tarutaru Snare(Rare/Ex): Use item, This traditional Tarutaru snare is a magical net that has the ability to weaken its catch.



Note: I know Novice and up can turn the fish into Zaldon, but am unsure about anything below that.

Penguin Ring

Albatross Ring

Ill list Items as I get them. I have yet to obtain either of those rings. But the NPC uses them in text, so I can asume thats where you get them.

I got the Brigand's Chart in my 2nd marlin, traded another 10 but didn't get anything further. Anyway, I took the chart to Buburimu and did the little event. Basically, it was a ghostly elvaan guy saying he needed his penguin ring fished up but had no rod or bait. Everything gave 'Something caught the hook!!!' messages along with 'good feeling' but they weren't mobs. I ended up fishing up 4 large boxes before I ran out of time. Inside the boxes were:

Lines and Space (EX furnishing)
Blue Pitcher (furnishing)
Silver Beastcoin
Rusty Cap

No Penguin Ring, but that's what next time is for. In the future, I recommend the following:

Equip your fishing gear before you trade, as you'll be capped at 20.

Wait till after the event to open boxes (not sure about this, I was opening as I went and I experienced delays).

Make sure you're fishing macro is ready to go.

I actually really enjoyed this event even though the prizes weren't that great. I highly recommend it.

i am still thinking that the snare is to be used on the mobs that spawn in the valkurm quest. i tried using one on the boat today on a fished up mob, although it highlighted the mob, it wouldnt let me use it on it.
