Confirm the whole quest is finished
- Reach the relevant story condition, then visit the listed town or airship location.
- Look for the named substory and read its first objective.
- Continue through the final return conversation and reward.
- Check the quest log before marking it complete.
If a quest marker is missing
Chapter numbers are convenient labels; the current story objective is more precise. For Jake, try the required town-inn stay after the relevant progression rather than assuming an airship rest is identical. For Last Respite, complete it early once available because published references disagree about its late-game availability.
Build from jobs, then choose names
Choose a recovery character, reliable weakness coverage, protection and a damage plan. Revisit that choice when the story removes someone from the active party. Fina and Archwitch Fina explained separates recruitment, healing and the boss encounter.
