Salikawood (Final Fantasy XII)

The Salikawood is a location in the world of Ivalice in Final Fantasy XII. A large sprawling wood, it is home to many monsters.

Location
The Salikawood is located to the north of Mosphoran Highwaste, connecting to the Phon Coast. Travelers have to pass through the wood if they wish to reach Archadia on foot. To the north lies the Nabreus Deadlands, and the former capital of Nabradia, the monster-infested Necrohol of Nabudis.

Treasures
The most common item treasures are Hi-Potions and other common items, sometimes being Motes. When the Diamond Armlet is equipped the common item treasure is Knot of Rust and the rare item treasure is a good healing item, like Hi-Ether or Elixir.

The treasure northeast of the Trunkwall Road can have the Bone Mail. The treasure that spawns in the middle of the Sun-dappled Path can have the Winged Boots. A treasure in Corridor of Ages along a path that leads to the exit to Grand Bower can have the Fuzzy Miter. The treasure that spawns in the northwest of the Diverging Way can have the Bone Helm.

Quietened Trace
These chests only appear in the International Zodiac Job System version of the game.

Bomb Infestation
Usually the Salikawood is a quiet place, with only a few monsters. However, recently, Bombs have infested the wood from the Nabreus Deadlands (despite the fact that Bombs cannot be found in the Deadlands). This has made travel rather difficult for people wanting to reach the Deadlands.

The Gate
A gate is located at one of the exits of the forest, the one entering Archadia. Recently, however, it broke, stopping would-be travelers from entering. A moogle and his nine apprentices are in the middle of fixing the gate. To get to the Phon Coast shore the player needs to locate nine moogle workers who are resting in huts around the Salikawood. The huts are flagged on the map below.
