Tilting at Windmills

Learn how to complete the 'Tilting at Windmills' side story in Octopath Traveler. Discover the two solutions involving NPCs in Atlasdam and Sunshade.

Alright, so you've finished Ophilia's Chapter 4? Awesome! That means you can now tackle the 'Tilting at Windmills' side story. You'll find the quest giver, a Slender Farmer, hanging out on the eastern side of Wispermill. Apparently, someone's jacking up the prices for the windmills, and we need to sort that out.

You've actually got two ways to wrap this up, so pick the one that suits you best.

Option 1: Head to Atlasdam

First up, you'll need to travel to Atlasdam. Once you're there, make your way to the front of the weapon shop. Look for an NPC named Dan. Now, here's where your party composition matters: if you have Primrose or Ophilia in your party, you can use their Guide or Allure ability on Dan to bring him back to the quest giver in Wispermill. That's it for this path!

Option 2: Confront Bryan in Sunshade

For the second option, you'll be heading to Sunshade. Make your way into the tavern there. On the left side, you'll spot a rather fancy-dressed man named Bryan. He's the one you're looking for. You'll need to use your character's Challenge or Provoke ability on him to initiate a duel. Don't sweat this too much; he's only got a strength of four, so this fight should be a breeze. Once you win, the quest is complete!
