Quests: +Accuracy? Yes, Please! (Chasing Dreams)

It was full moon the other evening, so Kiki and Grym decided to head to Rabao to try to build Kiki's moat carp count (currently 1042/10000). They each had 6 stacks of insect paste, and Kiki used a Carbon Rod, while Grym used a Composite. Kiki ended up with 3 stacks of moat carp, and Grym with just 2 stacks. Kiki's fishing skill is also higher - 31+4 vs. 29+3, but I think it's the rod that makes the difference.

After they used up all the bait, Kiki ran around Rabao looking for someone to sell her sandfish to, and happened to pick up the "Chasing Dreams" quest (the reward is 4K plus a Venerer Ring, Level 34 +3 ACC), which isn't available until you complete the Promyvions. The quest has an intriguing story, but involves a lot of running around all over the place. And if you don't know what you need ahead of time, it would take even more running around.  Here's what Kiki did:

Quest giver wants you to go to Norg
Warp from Rabao to Jeuno HP
Airship to Kazham
Chocobo through Yuhtunga to Sea Serpent Grotto
Sneak through SSG
Talk to people in Norg, they want a drink from Korroloka Tunnel
Warp from Norg to Jeuno HP
Airship to Bastok
Walk through Zehrun Mines to Korroloka Tunnel
Collect water from 4 Giant Clams
Back to Bastok (didn't leave /BLM subbed, but could have)
Warp from Bastok to Jeuno HP
Airship to Kazham
Chocobo through Yuhtunga to Sea Serpent Grotto
Sneak through SSG
Talk to people in Norg again, they sent you to Bastok
Meet Grym at Yuhtunga entrance to SSG
Kill EP and TWTBW Sahagins in SSG for nearly 2 hours to get 5 Eastern Gems
Walk through Yuhtunga to Kazham
Warp from Kazham to Jeuno HP
Airship to Bastok
Set HP in Bastok
Talk to Tenshodo members, trade Eastern Gems for info, get sent to Selbina
Teleport-Dem from Bastok, walk to Selbina through the Dunes
Talk to the Mayor, he talks about the vortex off Siren Sands
Walk to vortex off Siren Sands, go through to Lufaise Meadows for cutscene
Warp to Bastok HP
Walk through Zehrun Mines, Korroloka Tunnel, East Altepa, West Altepa to Rabao
Report back to the quest giver to receive the reward

There may be quicker ways around (like using a Teleport-Yhoat instead of the airship to Kazham), but nothing would make it that much shorter. It's definitely worth it though, a +3 ACC ring at level 34 that you can get without competing with the stroper chyme campers, or spending enormous amounts of gil to get. I spent about 1200 on airships and chocobos, but that was it. People can buy the 5 Eastern Gems on the AH for 2-3K each, but it was more fun getting them by killing mobs (and got another 200 points closer to being safe at level 51 with Kiki's PLD). The ring currently sells for between 150-170K, but Kiki wants to keep hers for her WAR and DRK, and when she's not tanking with PLD.

As I mentioned, the story's quite good, and there's a second quest that continues the storyline. Apparently you have to be on Mission 2-5 for Chains of Promathia to be able to pick that one up, so it maybe awhile before I learn more.
