    GC Quest, "An Officer and a Wise Man" -- Text -- Inconsistent Location References

    When the player is in Maelstrom Command in Limsa Lominsa and speaks to Guincum concerning the "An Officer and a Wise Man" GC quest, the following text appears from Guincum in part:

    "
    Guincum: The Admiral's attendants
    overheard her mention a clearing
    west of Camp Bloodshore to a
    pirate envoy. We believe it to be
    the location of the moot. Would
    you consent to go there on our
    behalf?
    "

    Additionally, the journal contains the following text in part:

    "
    Admiral may be in danger, and has asked that you travel to a clearing
    south of Camp Bloodshore to see if you cannot discover her whereabouts.
    "

    This is incorrect for three reasons:
    1. The clearing Guincum mentions is to the southwest of Bloodshore, not the "west".
    2. The phrase "to a pirate envoy" that follows Guincum's "Camp Bloodshore" does not seem to be correct.
    3. The mention of "south" within the Journal entry is inconsistent, as the location of the clearing is "southwest".

    Please fix these issues by replacing "west" with "southwest", by removing "to a pirate envoy", and by replacing "south" with "southwest".

    The corrected texts for Guincum and the journal would read as follows:

    "
    Guincum: The Admiral's attendants
    overheard her mention a clearing
    southwest of Camp Bloodshore. We
    believe it to be the location of the
    moot. Would you consent to go
    there on our behalf?
    "

    "
    Admiral may be in danger, and has asked that you travel to a clearing
    southwest of Camp Bloodshore to see if you cannot discover her
    whereabouts.
    "

    A moot!

    As opposed to being moot.

    I love that word. <3

    Great catches, Merm.

    What makes it even better, is that the Japanese says west...
    Though, after checking on screen, it looks like southwest is probably our best bet.
    I'll inform the writers on the JP side and let them decide what they want to do.

    The EN text will be updated in a post-1.19a patch. Thanks!
