FF WalkthroughWith the Mythril delivered to Tobul, return to the rebel hideout and speak with Hilda. She's concerned about the Empire's secret project - a massive warship called the Dreadnought. Your next mission: infiltrate Bafsk and gather intelligence.
Poft to Bafsk
Head back to Poft. You can fly to Bafsk via Cid's airship, but it's expensive. Walking is cheaper and Minwu keeps your party safe from random encounters anyway.
From Poft, head south through the forest. Bafsk is located southwest of Poft - follow the coastline and you'll reach it without much trouble.
Bafsk
Bafsk is an Imperial-controlled town. The citizens are being forced to work on the Dreadnought project. Head to the magic shop first - Esuna and Basuna are available here. Esuna cures status ailments and is vital for upcoming dungeons; buy it for at least one party member.
To progress, find the soldier standing near the left side of town. Ask him about Dreadnought. He'll step aside and reveal a hidden passage leading to Bafsk Cave.
Bafsk Cave
Bafsk Cave is a short dungeon with 2 floors and 3 treasure chests. There's no boss here - the goal is to reach the Dreadnought construction site and obtain the Pass.
Enemies include Goblins, Goblin Guards, Soldiers, and the new Zombies. Zombies are weak to Fire - a level 3+ Fire spell will handle groups easily.
B1
From the entrance, head up the passage to find chest 1 (Longsword).
Then go back down and follow the path right. You'll curve around and eventually reach the bottom left corner where chest 2 (Longbow) is waiting.
Continue right from the Longbow chest and take the exit on the right side of the map to reach B2.
B2 - The Dreadnought
Head right to the bottom right corner, then directly up to the top right. Follow the path until you see an opening with light coming through - an intimidating figure stands in the way.
A cutscene plays with the Dark Knight and Borghen. After their exchange, you'll witness the Dreadnought - the Empire's massive superweapon that threatens the entire rebellion.
After the scene, head back into the cave. Go right through the door to find chest 3 containing the Pass. This item is crucial - you'll need it later to board the Dreadnought.
With the Pass in hand, use the purple teleportation pad nearby to exit the dungeon instantly.
Return to Poft
Leave Bafsk and return to Poft. Head to the pub and find Cid. Ask him about Airship, then about Dreadnought. He's worried about the Empire's flying warship.
Cid tells you about Sunfire - a legendary flame that might be the only thing capable of destroying the Dreadnought. Learn this keyword.
Return to Altair
Heads up: Minwu leaves after this conversation. Pixel Remaster auto-unequips departing characters, so you won't lose his gear - but strip him now if you want to use it immediately.
Speak with Hilda in the rebel hideout. Ask her about Sunfire. She directs you to the King in the room on the right.
Talk to the King and ask about Sunfire. He explains that Sunfire is kept in Kashuan Keep, but you need the Goddess's Bell to enter. Learn this new keyword and ask the King about it.
Minwu leaves your party here to pursue his own mission. You'll meet him again later in the story. Speak with Hilda to learn about the Goddess's Bell - your next objective.
Next: Snow Cavern
Before heading out, make sure you:
- Have Esuna learned on at least one party member
- Learned the new keywords: Sunfire and Goddess's Bell
- Stocked up on Potions, Antidotes, and Eye Drops
- Have the Pass for later use

Bafsk Cave has 3 treasure chests. None are missable.
