Take on progressively more powerful notorious monsters while obtaining beneficial effects only available in Escha - Zi'Tah.
- How to participate
*Alter egos can be called forth for Geas Fete, but they do not count towards the required number of party members.
- Form a party of three to eighteen members.
- Every party member must possess a tribulens key item and the party leader must have a grisly trinket corresponding to the appropriate notorious monster.
- Preparing for battle
- Acquiring the first key item
Speak to Affi in Escha - Zi'Tah (F-10) and exchange escha silt for a tribulens.

The second "grisly trinket" key item differs based on the notorious monster.
*Each "grisly trinket" key item bears a different name for its corresponding notorious monster.
Speak to Affi and select "Receive grisly trinket memorandums" to see a list of each grisly trinket and their prices.
Exchange silt for the grisly trinket that corresponds to your target notorious monster.- Luring the monsters
The notorious monster will appear when the party leader inspects the ??? target located in each corner of Escha - Zi'Tah, while in possession of both a tribulens and the appropriate grisly trinket.
Vanquishing these fearsome foes rewards players with a variety of spoils and escha silt and beads.
* The key items are consumed upon summoning the monsters.
- Augmenting Equipment
Equipment dropped by the notorious monsters of Escha - Zi'Tah can be engraved with arcane glyptics in stages by exchanging eschalixirs to Nolan in Norg (I-7).
A preliminary mezzotinting process is performed after one of four different enhancement paths is selected. Mezzotinting does not require any eschalixira, but it does cost silt to perform.
Applying eschalixir to mezzotinted equipment will enhance its properties through several progressively stronger ranks.
Item details follow below.
Type: Selected path.
Rank: Current equipment enhancement rank.
NextRP: The number of rank points required before the next rank is reached.
Equipment dropped by the notorious monsters defeated in Geas Fete can be mezzotinted under a different path while retaining its previous enhancements.
- Eschalixirs
This mysterious grey liquid can extracted from the remains of Escha - Zi'Tah's denizens or bought from Nolan in exchange for escha beads.
