## Historical Background

Black Bartholomew is a name based on the famous pirate Black Bart (Bart being a shortened form of the name Bartholomew). Black Bart (real name: John Robert) was a Welsh pirate who lived from 1682-1722. He attacked ships across the central Atlantic, both in the Caribbean and along western Africa. Because he captured more ships successfully than any other pirate during the Golden Age of Piracy (1690- ca. 1730), he was considered the most "successful" pirate of this period. He was lured to piracy because it provided better income than serving on merchant vessels. His behavior was that of a standard pirate, though he preferred tea over rum (however, despite the common perception that he was a teetotaler, he did drink alcohol on occasion, namely beer). He treated his prisoners with moderate cruelty (not as bad as some pirates, but not as good as some other pirates). He commanded the ship the Royal Rover, then later switched to a brigantine, the Fortune, then later to the Royal Fortune. Black Bart was killed by cannon fire from the H.M.S. Swallow, commanded by Captain Chaloner Ogle near Cape Lopez on Annobon Island (located offshore of modern Equitorial Guinea in western Africa).

Blood Scale Mail Set

A full set of deep red scale armor, this set is the HQ version of the Crimson Scale Mail Set, which provides bonuses across the board to a variety of stats: Magic skills, MND, INT, MP, HP, ranged attacks, and even Movement Speed. This set is more of a jack-of-all-trades set than several other abjuration sets.

Like every abjuration set, this armor has a downside. In this case, the crimson set causes one to be considered a Dragon, and thus susceptible to all Dragon Killer effects, especially bys.

Blighted Gloom

It seems you MUST complete the Tactics Pearl quest BEFORE you can get the cutscene from Luto actually telling you which location listed below you need to travel to. You can go to ALL of the locations and nothing will happen when you click on the ??? If this is happening to you, do the Tactics Pearl quest and then come back and talk to Luto. You should then get a cutscene exactly as listed below. (update - I have not yet finished the Tactics Pearl quest, but I WAS able to get the CS and location (Ranguemont Pass) from Luto.)
* Talk to Luto Mewrilah in Upper Jeuno (G-8) for a cutscene that starts the quest.
* Luto Mewrilah will send you to find a ??? in 1 of 3 possible locations:

* Ordelle's Caves (I-5 on map to right)
* Ranguemont Pass (I-9)
* Korroloka Tunnel (F-9/10 on map to right)
* Click the ??? to spawn the Metallic Slime with about 900HP. Your NPC will appear to fight with you. Slime and NPC will immediatly engage and attack one another.
* Talk to your npc and then check the ??? point again to receive the Vitrallum (key item).
* Return to Upper Jeuno for a cutscene with Luto Mewrilah.
* Head to King Ranperre's Tomb and zone out into Jugner Forest. Head east to the lake and then north for a little bit until you find a ???. Click it for a cutscene to complete the quest. You can not reach the ??? from the main path in Jugner Forest because all paths are blocked.

### Game Description

**Client:** Luto Mewrilah (Artisan Bridge, Upper Jeuno)

**Summary:**

Luto has asked you to locate a special metal that can be used to repair the broken mirror. According to her research, this substance can only be found inside an extremely rare species of slime.
Blade of Darkness

* Travel to the Palborough Mines, and go to the top floor (by walking or taking the elevator).
* Proceed to the river boat at (H-8), get on the boat, and pull the lever to activate it.
* This takes you back to the Zeruhn Mines, and activates a cutscene with Zeid.
* He presents you with a sword (Chaosbringer), tells you to satiate its thirst for blood, and to then seek him out again in Beadeaux.
* To satiate the blade, you must kill 100 monsters with it. They can be anything, even the level 0 mobs in the starter zones.
* The game won't tell you when you've reached the 100 kills. Keep track of your kills.
* Once you kill 100 monsters, take the blade with you to Beadeaux for a cutscene. You will now be able to become a Dark Knight.
* **Important Notes About Your 100 Kills:**

* For it to count as a kill, the finishing blow must be made by a normal attack with the sword.
* Weapon skills that kill the mob **DO NOT** count as a kill.
* Mobs that self-destruct will not count as a kill. (see Goblins, Bombs, and Bees)
* It is recommended that you kill the easiest mobs to make this go faster. (Although its upgrade, Deathbringer is perhaps the best greatsword of its level, it is highly recommended you get this when leveling Dark Knight; see Blade of Death for upgrade details)
* Kills **DO**  count if you first bring the mob down to a tiny sliver of health with a real weapon and then switch to the Chaosbringer for the final blow. (Note: The use of some skills, even with Chaosbringer equipped, such as Jump, will not count towards the 100 kill count.)

### Game Description

Zeid, the sole master of the way of the dark knight in Vana'diel, has been sighted in the Palborough Mines. If you seek him out, he may make you an apprentice...

Blessed Radiance

* Head to Neptune's Spire and click on the first door to the left for a cutscene where you will be asked to find Glimmering Mica, Lunascent Log, and Mistroot to take to "Mirror Pond" in Beaucedine Glacier.

* Mistroot (Key Item) is harvested in Giddeus with a sickle.
* Lunascent Log (Key Item) is logged in Jugner Forest with a hatchet.
* Glimmering Mica (Key Item) is excavated in Maze of Shakhrami with a pickaxe.

* ***Note:*** Your NPC must be present and close to the spot when trying to obtain the above key items. If it's too far away you will simply do the action you normally would without NPC, therefore not getting key item. You can call your NPC with either a Signal Pearl or a Tactics Pearl. By now you should have high enough bond to have your NPC with you long enough to gather all 3 key items in a single use of either Signal or Tactic pearl (Be sure to have maps ready with harversting logging and excavating points indicated).
* ***Note:*** Be careful not to get on a chocobo if your NPC is already out, as it will make him or her disappear. The points in Jugner and Shakhrami aren't far, but the run to Giddeus might require you to take a chocobo.
* ***Note:*** You can Teleport with your NPC.

* After you have collected all 3 key items, head to Beaucedine Glacier for a cutscene.

* You may receive this cutscene directly after visiting the Neptune's Spire, but you would still have to collect the key items in order to advance the quest.

* Go to the small lake in the upper left corner of J-7 (near Fei'Yin) and click the "Mirror Pond" for a cutscene.

* Note, there are 2 "Mirror Pond"s, you want the northern one located at (J-7),  *not the one located at (G-10).*

* Head to "Neptune's Spire" and click on the first door to the left for another long cutscene.
* Speak to Luto Mewrilah for a cutscene.

### Historical Background

In Scottish folklore, the Bodach is a spirit. It was usually depicted as an old man wearing dark gray or an elderly dark gray figure. It has all the usual features of spirits in the British Isles: foretelling the death of members in a clan, stealing children or otherwise causing mischief. The most common depiction is of a spirit which comes down the chimney to terrorize and/or kidnap children. Bodach is the Scottish-Gaelic word for "old man".

## How to Obtain

### Merchants

 Name
 Khifo Ryuhkowa | Kazham (H-9)
Blunt

Different attacks do different types of damage, and different enemies may be resistant or particularly vulnerable to certain damage types. The basic types are:

## Exceptions

Some weapons have a different damage type than usual for their category.

* Rapier and Epee-type Swords do Piercing damage. Some examples: Joyeuse, Degen, Fleuret.
	+ Bilbo-type Swords such as the Tuck use the same model as Rapiers but do Slashing damage.
* The Bourdonasse Polearm does Blunt damage.
* The Crude Sword Great Sword does Blunt damage.
* The Honebami Great Katana does Blunt damage.
* The Chiroptera Dagger Dagger does Slashing damage.
* The Vampiric Claws Hand-to-Hand weapon does Slashing damage.
* When using the Monk Job Ability "Formless Strikes", the damage type of melee strikes and kick attacks is nonphysical, nonelemental. This damage will not be subject to any of the damage-type specific bonuses or penalties below.

Despite having an uncharacteristic damage type when meleeing, these exceptions still use normal damage types during weapon skills. For example, when performing a weapon skill with Vampiric Claws or while using Formless Strikes and any Hand-to-Hand weapon, the damage type is Blunt.

## Damage Type Modifiers by Monster Family

* Where not otherwised specified, the damage modifier is understood to be 1.0
* Reduced modifiers for undead monsters (marked above with \*) will be raised to 1.0 for a short time if the monster takes damage from a Banish spell.
* Source: Vanad'iel Monsters (Japanese)

## Avatar damage types

Avatars all do Blunt damage with their normal melee attacks.

The physical blood pacts, however, do 4 different types of damage:

* This means Ramuh would hit just as hard as Titan on pots (assuming he connected all 3 attacks)
* Diabolos' Somnolence and Nether Blast Blood Pact's have a longer range than other offensive magical blood pacts and deal non-elemental damage.
* Somnolence deals damage with an additional effect of Gravity.
* Nether Blast goes through shadows, Perfect Dodge and Invincible, it also deals extremely consistant 100%(?) accurate damage.
* Nether Blast may be more accurately classified as magical damage.

## Physical Blue Magic damage types

Physical Blue Magic takes on Damage Types as well. Below is the list:

### Walkthrough

* Talk to Shantotto in Windurst Walls who will give you the Pole of Trials and the Weapons Training Guide (key item).
* Use the Pole of Trials until the latent effect disappears.

* How to remove the latent effect:

* You must perform Weapon Skills and Skillchains on monsters that con Easy Prey or higher.
* You receive 1 point for opening/soloing a weaponskill, 2 points for closing a Lv.1 Skillchain, 3 points for closing a Lv.2 Skillchain.
* You cannot create any Lv.3 chains at this point using a staff.
* You must accumulate 300 total points.
* To check to see if the latent effect has disappeared, simply unequip and re-equip the Pole of Trials and if you do not get the bonus stats, you are done.

* Once you no longer receive the latent effect bonus, head back to Windurst Walls and trade the Pole of Trials back to Shantotto, who will take the weapon from you and give you a Map to the Annals of Truth (key item) and tell you to head to Ifrit's Cauldron.
* Take the East entrance of Ifrit's Cauldron. Make a right at the first junction, head past the first Flame Spout, straight through the cave and follow the path around the crater to the drop point at I-7/8. Enter the cave immediately to your left. Sneak and Invis will be needed the entire time.
* Follow the path until you reach a large room with Bombs, Bats, and Ash Lizards (H-7).
* 2 ???s will be in this room. The ??? in the middle of the lava bridge will be the one that triggers the NM Skeleton Cailleach Bheur.

* The best place to camp is at the far tunnel, past the 2 ???s. Clear the 2 bats and the bomb if necessary, then pull to the tunnel. You have 16 minutes before enemies start respawning.

* Once the NM is dead, re-examine the ??? to obtain the Annals of Truth (key item).
* Bring this back to Shantotto for your reward.
