How to complete the A Healer’s Mercy quest in Phantom Blade Zero
The “A Healer’s Mercy” quest in *Phantom Blade Zero* asks players to find four injured thieves in and around the Crimson Forest Thieves’ Camp and heal them with Yu’er’s pills. It is missable: progressing too far in the main story can cause all four thieves to die, preventing completion and forfeiting the quest reward.
Find and speak to Lean Monkey in the tunnel near the Outlaw Trap Bell, Flying Rat in the nearby cave, Slippery Eel through the Cliffside Lodge basement, and the final thief inside the Thieves’ Camp dungeon. The dungeon key is in the lodge basement; complete the quest by returning to Yu’er after healing all four. The reward is the Calming Gourd Accessory, which helps recover after your guard is broken when using medicine and prevents Sha-Chi use for three seconds.
In short
- Heal four injured thieves before progressing too far in Crimson Forest.
- The dungeon key is inside the Cliffside Lodge basement.
- Yu’er rewards you with the Calming Gourd Accessory.
Explained simply
Phantom Blade Zero is an action role-playing game in which players explore areas, fight enemies and complete quests. Yu’er is a healer who gives the player pills, and the Crimson Forest Thieves’ Camp is an area linked to a group of injured thieves.
The quest involves finding four thieves in nearby tunnels, a cave, the lodge basement and the camp dungeon, then using Yu’er’s pills to treat them. The dungeon key is also in the basement, and the player must return to Yu’er after treating everyone. Progress in the main story can affect whether the thieves remain alive, while completing the quest earns an accessory that changes how recovery and Sha-Chi work after a guard break.
