How to get:
Please ensure that you have finished the following quests otherwise you cannot activate his quest:
- The Pioneering quest (finishing the Bahamas Swamp section)
- The entire Katovic Snowfield Quest series (giving you access to the Ice Wizard tower and finishing the original soup quest)
Elenore’s request
Joaquin Expedition
Continuing on, Elenore the Auch Pioneering Officer will ask you to catch Garcia, but she will send you to do an instanced mission called the Joaquin Expedition.
Simon’s proposal - accept or decline
Once you’re done, head on and talk to Simon Ayende first. He will offer you two options, which would alter the storyline a little but no matter which option you chose you will still get Garcia’s card for both routes.
Location - Ferrucio Wall (F2)
Meeting Selva Notre
After receiving either of the two missions, head to Ferrucio Wall, and there you will meet Selva. After some dialogue, go to the Frozen Plain and talk to Invernio to continue investigation of Feruccio’s legacy. You will bump into Selva and Garcia again.
Invernio’s location
Touching Reym’s heart would allow you to know what exactly is Ferrucio’s legacy, but before that, you need 50 gold bars, 50 ice crystals and 10 black magic stones.
Ice crystals and gold bars can be farmed throughout the Katovic map whereas black magic stones are dropped off mobs in the Ice Wizard Tower.
6 v 1, fair battle? xD
After solving the mystery of Reym’s heart, Montoro will appear and steal the Ice Queen’s seal. Selva, Garcia and Invernio will join your family in battle so you can attack from the corners. Here’s Montoro’s stats just in case:
Montoro’s stats
At this point, you will receive this awesome item that adds 3AR and DR called Necklace of Sage. (Name may change due to different versions)
The pendent will only remain in your inventory for three days and only one character may equip it
The next mission is to enter Ice Wizard Tower itself and defeat Novia. (Need to finish all katovic quests at this point to enter.)
Once you entered the Ice Wizard Tower, move forward a few steps and a window will trigger asking you if you want to advance to the mission. Selecting yes will warp you to the instanced mission.
Once you’re warped to the mission the battle will start against Novia. This will be no easy battle as you will not only face off Novia, but with her “summons” and Montoro. Selva and Garcia will aid you in the battle.
Note: It is extra important you stand at the following spot as indicated if you even want an easy battle. It will give your family a buff of AR/DR + 5 (It used to be 10 but the buff got nerfed as of ver 2.4) .You maybe fighting a quest version of Novia but nevertheless she’s still a tough cookie.
lvl 130 = Novia, lvl 110 = Montoro, lvl 120 = Novia’s summons
You need to take down Montoro and her summons, and bring down Novia’s HP to 50% before the quest is complete.
*Vital battle tip - Bring Elementalists or rNPCs with the lightning evocation stance; excluding Montoro, the others are very weak to lightning but remember to cover them while they spam away their skills
But after the battle, Garcia has been turned into the undead and you need to save him.
So talk to Invernio again, and he will tell you that you need 1 soup and 10 gold bars to create a remedy to save Garcia. 1 soup requires 50 Wolf’s meat, 20 Golden apples, 50 cabbages and 50 beets.
Note: If you have not done the soup quest in the Katovic Snowfield quest section, you will not be able to proceed to this part.
After saving Garcia, depending on what you chose when Simon offered you two choices, Garcia will either join you immediately or he will enter into a battle against you. But either way, you will get Garcia’s card.
Scenario 1
If you chose Simon’s second option, which is to report to him after you have found/caught Garcia, you can get Garcia’s card as your reward by talking to him back at Auch.
Scenario 2
If you chose Simon’s first option, which is to hand him over to the Office of Pioneering Support , you will be engaged into a battle with him.
Garcia’s stats
After you win/lose, Garcia will run off and you will need to find him. If you want to know his location, speak with Tiburon (ugh) and he will only tell you Garcia’s location if you pay him 1,000,000 Vis.
To those who have done Lorch’s quest before, you should know better than to choose the 200,000 Vis offer.
After you found his location, return to converse with Simon Ayende to receive Garcia’s card AND a lvl 100 enchantment chip.
