So I have GNMKNXDC IDZWDMTOHMKZS AQJCFF - followed heavenspillar bridge.

I found a leve that mentions a heavenspillar root, around the big root bridge in Matron's Lethe, Central Shroud. I tried looking on the bridge, around the giant trees, I'm not seeing anything. Any help would be appreciated!

Edit: And now I am going to bed. It is like 3:25 in the morning and I have to get up in like 4 hours >.< I just had to finish the quest and get my guide done up XD. Please post your riddles and answers that you find and I will update the known combinations in the morning ... well later in the morning @_@

Got it. Finally.

It IS by the leather workers guild... but it's UNDERNEATH it, in an area I didn't even realise was accessible.

Does anyone has the 3rd riddle in Bluefog? I can't see a hint for the emoticon, but it is in german. Perhaps a translation issue.

Now, I'm pretty sure I know my alphabet but if I go 2 letters forward and 1 back, I get this result:

BRQNZG LAME HQT SRRIPGS

I even double checked to make sure I had the correct letters from the quest and I do. I guess they need to fix that one? lol I can sorta see the answer based on something someone posted earlier (BRONZE LAKE HOT SPRINGS) but that's still gibberish essentially.

red light amidst the blue haze. cant find this location

Edit: nvm found it

It's at Camp Bluefog on top of the rock formation

Having trouble with my second riddle as it's not the same as what people have been posting... My letter's given for 2 steps forward 1 step back has no vowles.

Try a different interpretation of 2 steps forward, 1 step back. (First two letters 1 step forward, third letter one step back.)

Memenugu knows the steps

2 steps forward, one step back. over and over again, until the end

N +1 = O
N -1 = M

N +1 = O

N +1 = O
F -1 = E
T +1 = U
Q +1 = R
M -1 = L

Try under camp tranquil?

[Try under camp tranquil?]

nothing there...the ??? are in the marauders guild...just not getting a response from the emote


...forgot how to quote in forums...lol

??? inside Marrauder Guild is the clue. The ??? for emote is somewhere else

I've figured out the location that I need to go, however I have no idea where the actual place is at.

Do you know where in Central Shroud? I've been to Matron's Lethe, and the giant hollowed out tree near the Jadeite Thicket and still have yet to find anything. The only places I haven't looked are the GreenTear area and south of BentBranch.

Found it. Kinda tricky.

Near the border of North Shroud going into Central Shroud.

Its in North Shroud X:21 / Y:32. Right next to a Metal spike that is next to the Hollow Heavenspillar Bridge (which is actually the south exit that leads to Central Shroud)

May I ask what emote you used?

HylLfyr's cUtthroAts and briGands

Clue from MRD guild- A Deliberate display of emotion, as befits the situation, can be effective in deepening your relationships with others

The clue to me doesn't seem to give much up for a location, unless I'm not simplifying it enough, or too much

If we go forward the two first letters and go backward the third letter and repeat until the end, we can read "BRONZE LAKE HOT SPRINGS"

PD: Sorry for my poor english :(

I still don't get how you got that from AQPMYF KZLD GPS RQQHOFR since there's three Qs. Nevermind, I derped so much.

As for the Cutthroats and brigands one...

if you get this one, you will have NO CLUE on why this is chosen (Unless you're from 1.0). It's a direct reference to FFXIV 1.0.

I'm having trouble figuring out the exact location of this riddle.

GNMKNXDC IDZWDMTOHMKZS AQJCFF

Memenugu knows the steps.

Memenugu spoke about "Two Steps Forward, One Step Back. Over and Over Again, Until The End."

From this, I deciphered the clue out to HOLLOWED HEAVENSPILLAR BRIDGE.

This is as far as I have been able to go. Can't seem to figure out this one's location from the clue deciphered.

You have to apply the "two steps forward and one backward and repeat until the end". That means:

A+1=B
Q+1=R
P-1=O

And repeat the sequence until the end of the sentence:

M+1=N
Y+1=Z
F-1=E

And until now we have the "bronze" word. If you continue the sequence until the end, you'll see some "Q" becoming "P" and others becoming "R" depending of +1 or -1.

I am stuck on the SWORD+SWORD=DAGGER one. Mine is S of A. Can anyone help me? Math is definitely not my strong subject. -_-;

EDIT: After starring at the guide for a bit, would it possibly be Rings of Sunstone?

If we look at the magnesium02 post (http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...=1#post2247098), we can see that S is number 7 and equals "ring". A is number five, so it's Sunstone.
You have to equip yourself with a Sunstone Ring!

Thank you! I figured it out by myself right before your post, but thank you for confirming it!
One more question though. Do you have to equip just one ring or two?

I think I'm missing something, I got the wheel of the elements message, but no "jumbled letters".

Edit= NVM, I completely missed the spot on the statue since it was covered in people. :)

Can you check the letters again? It doesn't seem to make anything with the ++- rule.
