Chocobo hot and cold

[Kafeen]

I've just had a go at this (didn't find the chest)

I've seen there are 4 possible responces from your chocobo:
... = Nowhere near the spot to dig
kweh = You're Close
Kwehhh!? = You're Really Close.
K-KWEHHH!!! (You're right on top of it) = Obvious, keep digging here.

Unfortunatly I spent a bit too long digging in the kweh region thinking that was right before I spotted the 3rd responce. You then need several digs on the right spot, NPC says skills like Bore, Burrow and Treasure Hunter (chocobo ability) help by taking less digs when you hit the correct spot. Unfortunatly my chocobo became fatiqued after 1 did on the right spot, I had about 18 digs all together.

Hope this helps others find the chest faster, happy hunting.

Post what treasure you find here.

How do you start it?

Re: Chocobo hot and cold

There are new NPC you talk to at the chobobo stables. The ones in Windy are just outside, not sure about the locations in Sandy or Bastok, they'll be close.

Hmm, I just tried again on a friend's account.

After digging the KWEHHH!!! (You're right on top of it) 3 times it changed to :
Kweh! Kweh! Kwehhh!
(You've found a treasure chest!)

but no chest appeared. I tried digging more, the chocobo dug but no message appeared. I tried dismounting to see if I had to get off to get the chest. Still nothing.

Anyone else found anything out?

Re: Chocobo hot and cold

I just tried it. Got the Kweh, Kweh, Kwehhh! and a VSC cheat appeared. The reward was a coupon for a free Chocobo Whistle.

Re: Chocobo hot and cold

Only reason I did choco hot and cold in FF9 was to fight OZMA, that was like the best FF optional boss fight imo

And mushroom locustas are very rare, so even if they don't sell for alot it's nice to put it up for auction in jeuno O.o.
