How to complete Reaching for the Stars in Octopath Traveler 2

Just gotta knock some people out.

Reaching for the Stars is an Octopath Traveler 2 side story you can pick up in Gravell. It’s from an Ambitious Youth looking to leave town, but can’t because of “grown-ups.” Here’s how to resolve his problem.

To help the Ambitious Youth get out of town, be sure to knock out all adult NPCs that are out of their houses at night. Throne is naturally the best person for the job, but we suppose you can also use Osvald if you’re feeling a little more daring or Castti if you have the items.

Once all the adult townsfolk are out like a light, a cutscene will automatically trigger and complete the quest. The reward is 15,000 leaves and a Gaudy Hat.

Gravell is also the town you can pick up the Armsmaster hidden job from, so be sure to knock out the Debt Collector standing in front of one of the houses. There is a blacksmith inside who will tell you about Rusty Weapons, and give you the Armsmaster license if you have at least one of them in your inventory.

In fact, if you’re curious about hidden jobs in Octopath Traveler 2, there are actually four, including Armsmaster. We have this hidden job guide to help you locate them all. Unlike other licenses, you need to take a lot of steps to either get them or unlock all support skills for them.
