El Dicastes

In El Dicastes, the Sapha capital, every favor is paid in certificates and every guest wears the Ring of the Ancient Wise King. Run the city's errands, earn your standing, and see what stirs in the tunnels of Scaraba Hole below.

Content type: Renewal

Quick Facts

  • Currency: Sapha Certificates, earned from quests
  • Level Required: Base Level 80 for daily quests, Base Level 75 to wear the enchantable items
  • Daily Reset: All dailies share one account-wide cooldown that resets at 00:00 server time (@time)

Keep the Ring Equipped

Sapha NPCs only talk to you while the Ring of the Ancient Wise King is worn. It cannot be traded or stored, so every character must earn its own.

Getting There

El Dicastes is reached through the Episode 13.2 quest chain, which opens after you complete the Episode 13.1 Ash Vacuum quest chain.

Once you speak to the Cat Hand Agent in El Dicastes, you can return on your other characters. However, they cannot complete any local quests without the Ring of the Ancient Wise King.

Prerequisites

Completing these quests will take you to El Dicastes and unlock local quests there.

  1. Onward to the New World
  2. Finding a Fairy
  3. Two of these four: Attitude to the New World, Report from the New World, Tripatriate Union's Feud or Pursuing Rayan Moore
  4. Ring of the Ancient Wise King
  5. Sapha's Visit, up to step 7

Earning Certificates

Daily Requests

Take a request from one of six quest givers in the square, complete it, then report to the matching manager inside Diel. Each pays 1 Certificate plus 4,000 to 82,800 base EXP, rolled per request.

These quests reset daily at 00:00 server time (@time). Any quest you have not turned in by then is reset, and progress does not carry over between days.

Daily Quest Reset

To reset a quest, return to each manager in Diel before taking a new day's request.

Cheshire's Call

Unlocked by completing Doha's Secret Orders. Once per day, bring Cheshire 10 Clotted Bloodstains, 10 Strange Magic Stones and 10 Frozen Pieces of Skin to receive 70,000 base EXP, 30,000 job EXP and 1 Certificate.

Research Documents

Read a Document Package in the Archive Room to get a dig spot on a Midgard field map. Digging has a 50% chance to give an Unidentified Relic. Papyrus trades 3 relics for 1 Certificate or 30 for 11.

A bad document read can leave you Dizzy, which locks the Archive Room for 6 hours.

Frede's Request

A one-time quest that pays 3 Certificates. Start with Frede (/navi dicastes01 117/262, Base Level 70) and find his six missing friends in Scaraba Hole. Then bring Bouy (/navi dic_in01 349/129) 30 Small Bradium (6319 dropped by Dolomedes (2092), 75%). After a 2 hour wait, deliver the refined ore to all six again.

One of Frede's friends is on the lower floor of Scaraba Hole, which stays locked until "Doha's Secret Orders" has progressed far enough.

Certificates are spent on enchanting four bound items.
