I'm sorry dDewy but I'm afraid I don't understand your question.
You get to use this GK at lvl 42 as the detail photo says.

Are you asking if the two of you could take the NM? If so I would say no. Read the posts further down. I had 4 people helping me when I got mine and the fight was a breeze.....Quote the 75 PLD: What NM?!?!
Get a higher lvl for help and you should be just fine.

First, you can only repeat the quest after you've completed all SAM AF quests. Second, you need to accept the quest before you can buy another Mumeito.

How mature... does your mommy know you talk like that?

Now, if you're going to write like you're uneducated, you've NO right to get upset if someone points it out. Especially in the manner in which you chose to. Luckily for you, there's a very small number of gay players in FFXI, and they're usually a lot more tolerant than you. (no, I'm neither gay, nor tolerant of mouthy little punks like you.)

Grow up and learn to spell and punctuate.

Have a nice day.

-or don't

I really don't care.

I just finished this quest it cost me 30k and i think that its worth it, just to say i have it.. its the best available for me im @ SAM42/WAR21 and i think its a cool weapon

this quest only took me 40 mins tops, this fish is easy i did it with two lvl 40 BST's and a lvl 60 PLD, just stick the bait on there and watch the lil pet coerls attack while the paladin lands some heavy hits.. and i sit there grinning to myself.

i wud advise all samurai do get this weapon when they reach level 40 and just stick it in there inventory while it waits to be used,, its well worth the 30k...
piece of cake!

Me (sam 43/war21) and my friend Robb (nin 58/war29) killed the pug easy. he was the tank and i just stood behind and wacked away and after about 4 minutes it died...
i took about 3-400 dmg from aoe and one hit from when i pulled it.

Now im gonna go and pick up my new sword! :D

Just wanted to tell you about my experience in killing this thing... It was actually just me (58blm) and a 58bst friend who went after this thing. The couerls werent a prob seeing how they dont aggro at that lvl.. bst friend used them as pets... I cast Burst too early in the fight so it was attacking me most of the time... we ended up killing it after a few minutes... clicked the ??? and got the key item... side note... you dont have to be SAM as main job to get the key item... happy hunting^^

I did this with a 66 blm and a 63 thf, both friends of mine from my LS. When we got to the spawn point there were tons of Couerls and they had to clear them out so I wouldnt die.
Then I spawned the NM, and another Couerl popped, so we moved the NM over, slept the Couerl, then another Couerl linked, then a hound thing agroed me, then we killed the NM, i ran to the ???, got the key item, the blm warped, the thf ran, and I died.
I still got the AF, but just a warning, watch out for those damn Couerls. >.<

this kind of quest for the most part, is designed for a party of that level to complete together, so it shouldnt be hard at all.
For Kogatana
# Dec 13 2004 at 2:38 PM Rating: Decent
Well if you click on the Sacred Katana AF 1 quest it will tell you why. Anyway it says you must have it or pay 30k... Which I doubt anyone would like to pay 30k for a level 1 sword so... Just keep it for your Af 1!
Question on the GKAT

Question on the GKAT
# Sep 05 2006 at 8:42 PM Rating: Decent
For AF1 (any job) you can start the quest at level 40. (AF 1 is the weapon AF)
Also at level 50 you can begin the other AF quests.

i got this a while back and its as easy as everyone says! The hard part i think would be getting a high lvl person to help you if you dont know anyone who can help when you need it...

My PLD friend lvl 57 atm (Catfight) said she would help me do it and suggest to me that i ask people in tells... Well i did just that and after a while i got a lvl 73 rng to help me only problem was that he did not speak much english...

So we went to the Zitah and found the spot where the NM pops but I needed the fish bait first...

We got the fishbait on the third drop and we went back and he killed about 4 coeurls... when i traded it to the ??? me and the rng and PLD were making short work with it until i got aggro from 3 coeulrs tht spawned and from a hellhound...the rng shot at all of them and had aggro from every monster but uses drain bolts to keep his hp up..the PLD uses invincile after the NM was killed and we made short work of the rest... Just never fight it at night...

It was easy to get just get high lvl people to help^^ (thank you Catfight and Blackarena^^)

Well, I had a level 69 Dragoon friend help me with this, and we killed Isonade in an odd manner. It was just me as a lv42 SAM and her, 69 DRG/SAM. Isonade was hitting her for a good bit of damage so she used Super Jump and let her wyvern fight for a while. Isonade never landed a single hit on her wyvern...all we had to do was sit there and watch Cerulean rock the worthless fish. Eventually, my friend meditated and turned around to toss a 1k Penta Thrust at Isonade to finish it off, but we both agree had we just sat there and let her wyvern fight it, she would have won.

All in all, an easy battle. Got my Magoroku, and very pleased with it! The first GK that actually looks like it's made of metal.

# Sep 07 2004 at 6:39 AM Rating: Decent
I am probably missing something, or is this sword crap? I have the kagehide, which is faster. Faster = more hits = more tp = more skillchains. Yes +1 str +1 agi is nice but not that big a deal. Since I don't have my mumeito I don't see any reason to pick this up other than to do af2. Mildly dissapointing to say the least.

Um... Magoroku gives more TP per hit than Kagehide 'cos it's slower... have you not noticed that faster blades give less TP per hit?

Don't have Sam worked up, so not sure about this, but generally different tp types are because of the Subcategory of weapon, for instance, lances give 12 instead of 10, like other polearms. Kagehide is a Uchigatana type, while this is a Tachi type. Just my guess, but probably all Uchigatana type give less tp than Tachi type.

no, TP gain is directly related to weapon delay. This is most obvious as a Monk or Ranger. As a monk, your weapon delay lowers every 15 levels. you'll reacha point where suddenly you gain 11 TP a round instead of 12. As a ranger, you'll definitely see a difference, when one bow has a delay of 250 and another has a delay of 600.

# Aug 02 2004 at 10:52 PM Rating: Default
i don't even think i'll do the AF1 untill i need to do it so that i can do AF2, cause i say the Kagehide is better, i mean STR+1 and AGI+1=2+pts... Kagehide VIT+2=2+pts... and Kagehide is 2 levels lower, doesn't require a quest, and is faster^^

RE: Kagehide
# Jun 17 2005 at 1:33 AM Rating: Default
SAM don't generally need VIT. Any good SAM needs as much STR and AGI (and DEX) as he or she can get. Defense? It's pretty much crap by Level 42 anyway so it's best to go with the stronger weapon. Besides, the Kagehide isn't THAT much faster.

Okay, raw damage wise Kagehide has a 12.86:12.44 advantage. STR+1, however, will override that and bump the damage over that of the Kagehide. Every point counts.

At least I still have my Mumeito. I almost never throw away anything RARE/EX. No 30k for me hehehe.

Seriously, when all of our other AF gear is in the 50's to 60's, why does this one item become available at 42? I mean, from reading these posts, what you need is a party of 50's to GET the damn thing. . . just seems strange to me.
RE: Why so early?
# Jul 29 2004 at 2:25 PM Rating: Good
A. If you look at the stats its a fairly good sword for that lvl so yes its ganna take a PT of 50 to do, most AF1-1s do.
B. All AF1-1 (Weapons) are at lower to mid 40s.
Sorry if any of this is wrong..but im pretty sure its right.

I do believe that you are, in fact, right. It's just that I have helped shell mates with their AF1 before, and this quest is distinctly harder than several of the others at the same level.

SAM AF is a bugger all around, though. Especially the Helm. Burning Circle Pain.

I did this with a 42sam<myself>, 45thf<ls friend>, 61rdm<friend of someone in ls>...We had no problem at all to tell you the truth. Got aggro from a bunch of coeurl at the end but the rdm slept em and we all warped out. Not to hard really. I suppose me wasting my 2 hour for a wicked SC might have helped. 100tp > tachi: enpi > meikyo shisui > tachi: kagero > fusion > meditate > tachi: enpi > scisson > tachi: kagero > fusion > tachi: enpi > scission.....lol that **** was fun..
