The last thing you want when you are playing a difficult game is to miss out on weapons or Phantom Edge. In a game like Phantom Blade Zero, missing weapons or accessories can leave your build incomplete. One such accessory that you definitely need in your journey is Arrowward; it’s tied to a specific quest titled “Leave None Alive“. If you don’t activate the quest, you will be locked out of this accessory.
In this guide, I will show you how to get the Arrowward Accessory in Phantom Blade Zero. I will also provide location details to start the Leave None Alive quest. The quest features two missable items; one is Arrowward and the other is Agarwood Prayer Beads. I highly recommend completing the quest, or you will miss out on two good accessories.
Getting the Arrowward Phantom Blade Zero
Offering Thief’s Relic to a wounded thief found in the middle of the “Leave None Alive” quest will award you with the Arrowward accessory and later, the Agarwood Prayer Beads accessory. First, head to Old Man Gen at Old Man Gen’s Hideout in the Village of Lu (marked on the map above), and talk to him to start the quest “Leave None Alive”.
Getting the Thief’s Manual
Once you start the quest, our first task is to eliminate everyone at Thieves’ Camp in Crimson Forest to get our hands on “Thief’s Manual.“
Note: While you are at the Thieves’ Camp bell, head to the wooden bridge located a bit south of the bell. Right on the bridge, you will come across an enemy; defeat him to get the “Seal of Dugu” as a reward, along with a key. The Seal of Dugu increases the Sha-Chi depletion of Sha-Chi combos by 8%.
While killing everyone here is necessary, the actual item we are looking for will drop from a specific enemy. Head to the specific hostile, marked on the image above, to get a Thief’s Manual as a drop item. If you climb on the wall behind him, it will lead to the Quick Hand Zhang hideout, where you can begin your relic hunting quest.
Returning the Thief’s Manual for Arrowhead Accessory
Now head to the Smuggler’s Tunnel Entrance bell in the Village of Lu, and then head to the open area on the left leading to Pangzhen. A cutscene will trigger with a wounded thief; after the dialogue is over, you will get the option to give the Thief’s Relic to the thief to get the Arrowward accessory in return.
Arrowward: Reduces ranged damage and Sha-Chi depletion by 20%
Getting the Agarwood Prayer Beads Accessory
Our next task is simple: just head to Weeping Creek Valley and go to the spot marked on the map, just a bit east of Outpost Bell, and you will find a golden monk NPC. Defeat him to get the Prayer Beads. Prayer Beads are not an accessory; they’re a story item, more like the Thief’s Manual.
Now with the Prayer Beads in hand, head to the last travel spot for the quest, the Survivor’s Courtyard bell in the Village of Lu. Near the bell area, you will find a monk meditating under the tree. Interact with the monk to start talking. Right out of the gate, the monk will ask you a question: “Do you believe in the Lady of the Veil?” The only options here are: “Do not believe” and “Believe”. Choose “Do Not Believe” as an answer to make him hand you the Agarwood Prayer Beads.
Note: While you are at the Survivor’s Courtyard bell in the Village of Lu, you can start the “A Puppet’s Wooden Heart“ quest that has an interesting story and rewards at the end.
Agarwood Prayer Beads: Reduce recovery time from Guard-Broken by 15%.
Ending the conversation with the monk completes the Leave None Alive quest in Phantom Blade Zero. Completing the Leave None Alive quest also opens or clears the route west of the Outpost bell in Weeping Creek Valley. If you are getting “Maskwalkers lie ahead. This road is sealed” from the Spearman Guard, east of the Outpost bell, then you must complete the Leave None Alive quest to get rid of the blockade.
