Hunt four exact targets

Join the waiting room. Kill four enemies whose exact name is “Job change monster”. Other monsters, even identical sprites with a similar name, fail the test. Avoid the holes and traps.

The three-minute limit covers the hunt, switch and escape. As soon as the announcement tells you to find the switch, stop hunting.

Activate the switch and escape north

Click the switch at the center, then reach the north exit before the timer expires. Speak to your Payon examiner after returning and collect Necklace of Wisdom. Keep it for the final guild turn-in.
