Like many of the quests in Final Fantasy 16, the Bad Blood side quest makes the players face a moral dilemma. Players get a chance to choose from two options, and even though it doesn’t matter what choice the players take as they end up with the same conclusion, the quest feels different from others and makes you more interested in the story.
This article will tell you about the Bad Blood side quest in Final Fantasy 16 and how you can complete it.

How to complete Bad Blood in Final Fantasy 16?
Like most side quests in the game, completing Bad Blood is an easy task. Follow these steps to complete the Bad Blood side quest
- Talk to the injured soldier on the way to Tabor.
- The soldier will tell you about an aether flood that has consumed the camp and ask you to kill any soldiers consumed by it.
- Follow the path and stick to the left wall.
- Keep heading towards the Aether Flood until you see a group of Akashic enemies.
- Kill all of these enemies in what will be a very easy fight.
- Clive will soon realize that an Akashic has escaped the encampment and made his way up a hill.
- Go to the quest marker to find the heavily injured soldier.
- Speak to this soldier to end the quest and receive your rewards.
The Final Decision
As the quest ends and Clive leaves the wounded soldier to die, the Republican soldier remembers that Clive was the one who killed many of his allies in battle. At this point, the soldier will want to fight Clive despite not being in a good state.
This is when the players will be given a choice to either accept the soldier’s challenge or reject it. The options given will be “He can barely stand”or “Fine. If you insist”.
Sadly, this decision has no effect on the outcome of the quest or the game, as Clive will always refuse to fight the dying man who vows to get his revenge one day.
