MV's Lair is a dungeon in Masteria with a quest chain, the villain MV, and a treasure room.

Step by step

  1. Enter from New Leaf City's right-hand door and talk to Charles in the lobby. Accept "Discovering Secrets" (Discovering Secrets Quest Guide); he moves you to the first stage.
  2. Break the stone piles for 7 secret letters and the Map to MV's Lair. The letters always drop; the map drops from about one pile in seven, and the piles come back after two minutes. The guards in this stage cannot be killed.
  3. Hand them to Charles. The tunnel at the end of the stage opens ("The tunnel is currently blocked." until then).
  4. Take "Demise of a Madman" from Charles; it also moves you to the first stage. Go through the tunnel, break the rock in MV's room and MV appears. He summons Jr. MVs below 70% HP.
  5. Ten seconds after MV dies you are moved to the Treasure Dungeon for ten minutes.

Lara in the lobby has two more quests, "MV's Treasure" (MV's Sabre from the treasure chests, about one chest in two) and "A Headache for Treasure Hunters". Both need a Ticket to Treasure Dungeon from the Cash Shop.

Common problems

  • Charles won't take me down: talk to Charles in the lobby; he offers a ride back down while the chain is running, even after dying or leaving.
  • I handed the letters in at the lobby and got stuck: accepting his next quest now moves you back into the first stage.
  • The Mind of Maple: that is a different quest, from Mr. Moneybags in the Kerning City Night Market; see In Search of the Mind of Maple Quest Guide.
