Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII side quest guide

The Right Stuff 

The Hunter Hopeful will be very easy to spot, as he’s at the entrance of Jagd Woods

Who you get it from: The Hunter Hopeful, a man riding a Chocobo at the entrance of Jagd Woods.

When you can obtain the quest: After completing Main Quest 3-1.

Rewards for completion: 300 gil, Chocobo Feather Pin x1, Max HP +40, Strength +4, Magic +2, and a Mystical Meal (which your white Chocobo will love to eat)

Instructions for completion: Assuming you’ve fought every Wildlands enemy you’ve encountered up to this point, you should already have the necessary items: 6 Vibrant Ooze. If not, you can get some by defeating blue Miniflan, creatures that can be found throughout the map. Give it to the Hunter Hopeful to complete the quest.
