Every Map You’ll Ever Need! (Final Fantasy concert)
September 24th, 2007Knowing your way around is a big part of FFXI. To do this, you need to acquire a large number of maps. Some maps are attainable from Vendors in cities (sold by Region, covering multiple maps at once, or individually), some through quests, and others must be found in treasures/coffers. On top of that, world maps/zone connector maps are useful. These are user-made, since there’s no good representation of a helpful world map in-game. These will all be discussed in this tutorial.

4 – Quest Maps
There are also a number of maps that can only be obtained by doing certain quests. Here they are:
- Horutoto Ruins
This quest starts in Windurst Waters at the Opistery. Haria-Origa (F-8) sends you on a quest to talk to Ipupu who’s in West Sarutabaruta. Ipupu is somewhat hidden inside the tower located between J-8 and I-8 in West Sarutabaruta. Note: You do not enter the tower area. He is within the tower but still in the West Sarutabaruta area. Once you talk to Ipupu, head back to Windurst Waters and talk to Haria-Origa again for your reward: the Horutoto Ruins map!
- King Ranperre’s Tomb
This quest starts in Northern San’Doria at (F-3). Talk to Aurege and you will see him have a conversation, talk with him again and he’ll tell you about how gambling is bad. You’ll wind up being asked to go see Varchet who’s located at (L-6) in South San’Doria. Gamble with him until you win, then return to Aurege who will thank you and give you your reward: the map of King Ranperre’s Tomb!
- Gusgen Mines
This quest starts in Port Bastok around (H-5)~(G-5). Talk to Gustav and he will tell you about how his boss has gone missing. You must return to him with a Dog Collar, which is dropped off of Black Wolves, which spawn at night in North Gustaberg. Once you trade him the dog collar you are given your reward: the map of Gusgen Mines!
- Dangruf Wadi
This quest starts in Bastok Markets at (H-10). Talk to Degenhard who is an old man with plenty of energy, who claims you could never discover the secret to his youth. Trade him a bone chip (which can be found off of skeleton type monsters, bought at bonecrafting guild shops, or simply bought off of the auction house) to unveil his secret and get your reward: the map of Dangruf Wadi!
- Bostineaux Oubliette
This quest starts in the port town of Mhaura. Talk to Blandine to find out she is worried about her husband who took the boat from Mhaura to Selbina. Go upstairs and talk to Grimr and Zexu, they’ll tell you about how he had a Sand Charm. Go back to talk to Blandine for a short cut scene. The Sand Charm is a drop off of the Crossbone monsters who will randomly appear and attack the boat when “pirates” pull up. Note: you do not need to have started this quest already to get the drop. The monsters should be doable 1v1 at ~LV 30 for a melee or dmg dealer type. But be careful, they’re aggressive and link. Once you trade the Sand Charm back, you get your reward: the map of Bostineaux Oubliette!
- Fei’Yin
This quest starts again with Haria-Origa (F-8) in Windurst waters. However, you must have done the Horutoto Ruins map and the two book return quests (issued from the other half of the Opistery), along with have enough fame in order to get this quest. Once you get it, Haria-Origa asks for a turnip (which can be bought at the culinary guild store or from the auction house, or grown in your garden) and a slime oil, which drops off of slime-type monsters and can also be found under Materials > Alchemy at the auction house. Once you get her these items you receive your reward: the map of Fei’Yin and even 3000 gil!
- Castle Zvahl
This quest start in Ru`Lude gardens (in Jeuno). Talk to Radeivpart at (H-9) and he will ask you for a Flame Degen. These are dropped off of Napalms in Ordelle’s Caves, or can be crafted with 41 Alchemy skill (earth crystal > 1 firesand, 1 slime oil, 1 degen), or can simply be bought at the auction house. Turning this in will get you your reward: the map of Castle Zvahl!
- Northern Regions
This quests starts in the Chateau d’Oraguille (San’Doria). First, you must gain access to this Chateau. That requires either rank 2 in San`Doria or rank 3 in Bastok or Windurst (you don’t necessarily have to be rank 3, just need to at least be on the rank 3 mission – The Three Kingdoms, in order to get access to the Chateau). You must also have completed the Growing Flowers quest, first. Head to the Queen Leaute’s grave, and examine it. Then talk to Chalvatot, who, if you have enough fame (LV 6+ fame in San`Doria, which is pretty high) will tell you he needs Derfland Humus for the queen’s garden. These drop off of Doom Scorpions who are tough LV 45-47 monsters found in the Crawler’s Nest. They have a special ability that can hit a LV ~45 in good armor for about 500-700 dmg. If you want the map (and lack the levels to kill the scorpion), the Derfland Humus sells at the auction house under Other > Misc. After returning the Humus you are given your reward: the map of the Northern Regions!
- Delkfutt’s Tower
Imasuke is located in Port Jeuno right by the entrance into Qufim Island. He asks for a Kaiser sword, which drops off of the Dancing Weapons in Qufim Island or can be bought at the auction house. Turning one in earns you your reward: The map of Delkfutt’s Tower! (includes all sections of Delkfutt’s Tower)
- Crawler’s Nest
Warning: This is a very long and somewhat annoying quest. This quest starts in Selbina. Talk to the Mayor of Selbina, Abelard, who tells you he wants you to find stone monuments, giving you a piece of clay. You must go out and find these monuments, trade the clay, then return to Selbina each time to obtain your reward, then be given a fresh piece of clay to find more monuments. There are a total of 17 monuments. Each monument will give you a certain gil value for the monument itself. Upon completing the 15th monument, you can choose to continue and get the last two clay monuments or just finish. Either way, you will be given a special reward for the 15th monument: the map of the Crawler’s Nest! Here are the locations of the monuments:
South Gustaberg – (K-10) – 800 gil reward
North Gustaberg – Cave by the waterfall NE of Dangruf Wadi – 3000 gil reward
Konschtat Highlands – (G-7) – 1000 gil reward
East Ronfaure – (G-11) – 800 gil reward

- Raguemont Pass
This quest begins in Selbina. Thunder Hawk, who is found in front of the Mayor’s House, asks you to rescue two merchants who have been kidnapped by quadavs. You must now head over to Beadeaux. Kill De`Vyu Headhunter, who is a LV 45 NM, to get the quadav charm then head over to the third map of Beadeaux, and go to I-9. Make sure to be sneaking. Trade the charm with the door to get it to open. After the cut scene, return to Thunder Hawk in Selbina for your reward: 3000 gil and the map of Raguemont Pass!
- Touraimarai Canal
This quest starts in Mhaura. This is a difficult quest to get, simply because you must do many of the Rycharde the Cook quests before finally getting the quest for the map. Talk to the girl at ~ (I-8) in Mhaura on the first floor. She sends you to see the Mayor about work. The mayor then sends you back to her, who directs you to Rycharde the Cook. This begins a series of quests involving food that you must first do before getting this quest. Some of them involve a real hour wait period of about 8 hours inbetween them. However, once you get this quest itself, it is fairly simple. Rycharde gives you a pizza to deliver to Valgeir, who is in Selbina (simply ride the boat over). Deliver the pizza, return, and obtain your reward: the map of Touraimarai Canal!
Well, that’s it for the tutorial. I hope you never get lost again! Should you be interested in how to obtain any maps not listed here (I think I listed almost all of them…) send me a PM, and I’ll try to edit it into the guide.
