Thanatos Tower Entrance & Upper Floors
Sign the work contract, open the group gate and collect the five keys. Finish the journal before choosing the optional summit expedition.
Pack for the whole quest
- 5,000 Zeny for the initial tower admission; registered workers receive the 3,000 Zeny rate on later entry.
- At least five characters must stand near the floor 2 Entrance Guide to open the floor 3 gate.
- Equip a level 4 weapon for the Red Key device.
- The floor 7 gate accepts second-job classes and above. Expanded first classes such as Super Novice, TaeKwon Kid, Ninja, Gunslinger and Summoner need Base Level 95 or higher. Every entrant also needs the Black Key.
Collect keys in order and choose to concentrate on each vision so the journal advances. The keys and charm stones are used during the climb, so prepare them again for another summit expedition.
- Access to the lower tower, upper floors and optional Thanatos summit.
- Varmunt’s Journal and an Old Purple Box from the Entrance Guide.

At the floor 4 Rune Device, guess a three-digit number using three different digits from 1 to 9. A strike means the right digit in the right position; a ball means a right digit in a wrong position. Use the feedback to find three strikes within five guesses.
After five failed guesses the code changes, so restart your deduction. Take the Yellow Key and concentrate on its vision.
