Alright, so we need to determine where Darrin Wade is and stop him from pulling off whatever he's planning, right? I've talked with the wizards in Vanguard and Dark Watcher, and we've come up with a plan. Darrin Wade used an incredible amount of magic to kill off Statesman. Dark Watcher believes that if we investigate the scene where Statesman died, we could try to pick up Darrin Wade's magical signature and pick up his trail from there. It's not much, really, but it's something. We could always just sit back and wait for him to destroy the world, but I think we both agree it's a little better to be pro-active, eh? We'll have a helicopter bring you over to the site whenever you're ready.

I should strike you down here and now for attacking Ghost Widow, but I understand you most likely would be able to best me, much like you've bested Darrin Wade's attempts at defeating you.

You are looking for Wade, much like we are in Arachnos. I would propose that we merge our two goals together to get this task accomplished. I understand you may have a rather sordid history with Arachnos, but I can assure you that we only seek to destroy Wade utterly in all of this.

I have the information needed to track him down, but I need to know that you're willing to work together with Arachnos to do this.

:Arachnos could use all the help it could get, as I understand it. We are the last major organized force who is available to go against Darrin Wade. As we speak, monsters of Rularuu are appearing all over the world.

Part One: Unlikely Allies

Briefing

Character. We don't have a lot of time to talk. I'm sure you're fully aware of the situation we're all in. Darrin Wade is attempting, as we speak, to summon Rularuu into this world. He has Statesman and Sister Psyche's powers at his disposal and is almost impossible to beat.

Wade's whole plan has left the Freedom Phalanx and Vindicators a wreck, so they're both out of the picture. Vanguard is dealing with reports of Rularuu monsters appearing all over the world, except for Paragon and the Isles. Seems like Wade is doing his best to keep everyone as spread out as possible.

That leaves you and a select few who may have the capabilities of actually stopping Darrin Wade before his plans come to fruition. As always, Vanguard is ready to do whatever it takes to face off against inter-dimensional threats. I have a few ideas of how we can handle this. Are you ready to take the fight to Darrin Wade and end this once and for all?

This arc contains elite bosses, which may be difficult to defeat by yourself.

Agree to form a task force

Alright, so we need to determine where Darrin Wade is and stop him from pulling off whatever he's planning, right? I've talked with the wizards in Vanguard and Dark Watcher, and we've come up with a plan.

Darrin Wade used an incredible amount of magic to kill off Statesman. Dark Watcher believes that if we investigate the scene where Statesman died, we could try to pick up Darrin Wade's magical signature and pick up his trail from there.

It's not much, really, but it's something. We could always just sit back and wait for him to destroy the world, but I think we both agree it's a little better to be pro-active, eh? We'll have a helicopter bring you over to the site whenever you're ready.

Investigate the Cimeroran Temple

Unnecessary Solicitation

We don't have time to waste, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

Map: ARACHNOS_MODERNSYBILTEMPLE

The Vanguard helicopter was forced to drop you off at the caverns at the base of the temple due to a high number of Arachnos flyers patrolling the area.

Recluse and his army must have thought of a similar idea that Dark Watcher had.

  • Investigate the Cimeroran Temple
    • Get to the top of the Cimeroran temple
    • Defeat Ghost Widow
    • Speak with Scirocco

You've agreed to have Arachnos work together with you and discovered that Darrin Wade went into the Shadow Shard!

Arachnos was there?!

Well, I guess we can use all the help we can get, Character. If what Scirocco said is true, we know where we have to go next, although I'm a little worried that this could lead to a trap.
