ClientSummary
Nanaa Mihgo (Cat Burglar's lair, Windurst Woods)Follow the "gang whereabouts note" to find the two remaining members of the Atarefaunet's band of thieves. Hand each one of them a "counterfeit envelope" and have them sign the forged documents inside.

In Windhurst Woods, talking to Nanaa Mihgo will trigger this quest. She will ask you to get the signatures from thieves. Talking to her guards, you will discover that one resides in Lower Jeuno's Golbin Shop and the other atop a tower in the Sauromugue Champaigne. This quest really comprises of two long, drawn-out AF battles in three separate zones. Therefore, I have split the quest into two sections that cover each of the fights and initial set-up.

Thick As Thieves: Part One (Sauromugue Champaigne)

Gather your AF party and travel to Sauromugue. There are six towers in this zone, each housing a ???. You are looking for one of these to trigger the Goblin NM, Climbpix Highrise (Lv. ??). However, only one of them will… and one of them can only be accessed through Garlaige Citadel (through the Third Banishing Gate).

The tower locations are (G-6), (I-7), G-8), J-8), (K-9), and (I-10) being the Garlaige Citadel tower. There will only be one tower that spawns the Goblin NM, and it is random. The correct ??? will remain put until the next time that the NM has been spawned. This is similiar to how the candle works in the Acting in Good Faith quest for Teleport-Mea.

Climbpix Highrise has high Evasion, therefore… make sure you have some nukers if you want to take him down more effortlessly.

When he is defeated, he will drop the Grapnel. When the THF in the party has obtained this, travel to the tower at location (I-7) and strip completely naked. No, I'm not kidding you. Unequip all your armor and weapons and everything until you in the buff, naked as a jaybird. Wearing only your birthday suit, trade the Grapnel to the ???. You will scale the tower and have an encounter with a Tarutaru THF who will promptly sign your letter and take away your Grapnel.

The first part of the quest has now been completed.

Thick As Thieves: Part Two (Dangruf Wadi)

Next, travel to Gutvik's Goblin Shop in lower Jeuno and talk to Sniggnix. Beat him in a game of /random dice and he'll tell you to travel to the Dangruf Wadi and take on the Goblin Trio… Grasslix, Eggvix, and Saltnix.

Before heading off, make sure that you have three or four Rock Salts, Lizard Eggs, and Gausebit Grasses. Although I was able to win each roll the first time, some people I've talked to have had to do this upwards of five times.

Anyway, travel to location (F-7) in the Dangruf Wadi and trade 1 Rock Salt to the ???. The Goblin Saltnix will appear. Beat him in a game of dice and he will tell you to seek out his brother, Grasslix.

Head to location (F-4) and trade 1 Gausebit Grass to the ??? to take on Grasslix. Beat him in a game of /random dice and he will tell you to attempt to beat his brother, Eggvix.

Finally, head to location (F-11) and look for the fake wall. Some of you might know where the "Strange Apparatus" is in the Dangruf Wadi. Walk through this fake wall and through a Cermet Door. Drop down the hole in the ground in front of you and head left until you see the ???. Trade 1 Lizard Egg to spawn Eggvix. Beat him in a game of /random dice and he tells you that you will be unable to take on his sister in North Gustaberg.

Finally, travel to North Gustaberg through the north Dangruf Wadi Drachenfall exit (see Drachenfall quest for information on how to reach this exit. When you zone into the North Gustaberg ravine, head straight on the path (you will not need to cross the bridge) until you come to a ???.

Make sure your party is buffed and ready for the imminent fight. Have your THF touch the ??? to spawn Gamblivix Wanderling (LVL ?? Goblin). All I can remember about this fight was that she throws bombs like crazy.

Once she has been destroyed, she will drop the cool looking Regal Die (I almost didn't want to give it up).

Once your THF obtains the Regal Die, travel back to the Goblin Shop of Lower Jeuno and trade it to Sniggnix. He'll summon the final thief who's signature you'll need.

There's that whole part where he tries to kill you cutscene. I don't remember what option I chose, but I didn't die. Anyway, you'll get his signature, and you're done.

Travel back to Windhurst Woods, talk to Ms. Mihgo and recieve your Rogue's Bonnet.
