Guide to completing The Prodigious Painting side story in Octopath Traveler. Learn where to find the questgiver, the required party members, and how to get the Final Masterpiece.
Alright, let's tackle 'The Prodigious Painting' side story in Octopath Traveler. It's a bit of a trek, so make sure you're ready!
When to start: You'll need to have finished Cyrus's Chapter 1 before you can even begin this one. As for when to actually *finish* it, I'd recommend waiting until you're around the end of Chapter 1 or the start of Chapter 2. This is because you'll need to venture into an area with a Danger Level of 20, and it's best to be a bit more prepared for that.
Party Members: You'll absolutely need either Tressa or Therion in your party to complete this. Tressa is the one I'd suggest bringing along.
- 1Find the Questgiver: Head to the palace in Atlasdam. The NPC who kicks off this quest is right inside.
- 2Prepare for the Journey: Make sure you have Tressa or Therion with you, and that you're comfortable venturing into a Danger Level 20 area.
- 3Locate the NPC with the Item: The person you need to find is in East Saintsbridge Traverse. To get there, fast travel to Clearbrook.
- 4From Clearbrook, exit to West Clearbrook Traverse.
- 5Start heading south to reach South Clearbrook Traverse.
- 6In South Clearbrook Traverse, go east to a fork, then south to another fork.
- 7From there, head west until you reach East Saintsbridge Traverse.
- 8Get the Painting: Once you're in East Saintsbridge Traverse, go south to a crossroad, then continue south. You'll find the target NPC waiting on a bridge.
- 9You have two options here: you can either Steal the Final Masterpiece from him using Therion's skill, or Purchase it. Honestly, purchasing it is probably the easier route.
- 10Return to Atlasdam: With the Final Masterpiece in hand, make your way back to the NPC in the Atlasdam palace to complete the Side Story.
