== Walkthrough ==

Travel to the Durable Shields shop and speak with [[Guslam]] located at (H-8) on [[Warrior]] to begin the quest.
*Go to [[The Eldieme Necropolis]] and find a [[Treasure Coffer]].
** You can purchase a {{KI}} [[Magicked astrolabe]] from [[Churano-Shurano]] in [[Windurst Waters]] at (F-8) for 10,000 gil. This allows you to open doors in Eldieme Necropolis by yourself.
*Obtain a {{Item Tooltip|Eld. Coffer Key|alt=Eldieme Coffer Key}} — farm it or buy it from the [[Curio Vendor Moogle]], or simply pick the Treasure Coffer lock as a [[Thief]]. You do not need to be on Warrior when opening this coffer.
**There is a chance that the coffer is in the Northwest section of map 2 (exit 7), which normally requires going to [[Beaucedine Glacier]] and then going south to [[Batallia Downs]] to access the entrance, on a ledge.
***Alternatively, you can visit this location in [[Batallia Downs (S)]] and examine the [[Lycopodium (NPC)]] to unlock the Sparkling Light shortcut in the present. This can skip the ledge without having to go around.
*You will receive {{KI}} [[Old gauntlets]] from the coffer.
*Return to [[Upper Jeuno]] and speak to [[Guslam]]. He will inform you he is unable to repair the gauntlets.
*If this is your first time completing a Boghertz's Hands quest for any job, you must do the following:
**Speak to [[Deadly Minnow]] inside of the Durable Shields shop.
**Head to [[Lower Jeuno]] inside the Tenshodo area. Speak with [[Yin Pocanakhu]] at (J-8) and then trade 1,000 gil to continue.
*Go to [[Port Jeuno]] and head to the crates near the AH and Jeuno Duty-Free Shop at (H-8) underground beside [[Digaga]].
*Click on the '''???''' to receive a cutscene.
*Travel to [[Castle Zvahl Baileys]] and go to (F-8) on the first map.
*Click on one of the torches to spawn the NM [[Dark Spark]].
*Once [[Dark Spark]] is defeated, examine one of the torches for the {{KI}} [[Shadow flames]].
*Return to Port Jeuno and examine the '''???''' again. After the cutscene, the quest is now complete.

==Two Additional Coffers==
[[Guslam]] mentions that there is still armor scattered about Vana'diel. You can find two more pieces of armor by opening coffers in the following zones with the corresponding coffer key:
*[[Crawlers' Nest]] - {{Item Tooltip|Fighter's Mask}}
*[[Castle Zvahl Baileys]] - {{Item Tooltip|Fighter's Cuisses}}
**These coffers are not required to complete the quest, therefore after you receive your hands the quest is "completed".
**{{PAGENAME}} must either be active or completed in order to receive these attire pieces.
**You '''must''' have [[Warrior]] as your main job when you open these coffers.
