Horns of War  

Battle Notes

To begin, trade 99 Kindred Seals to Shami at (H-8) in Port Jeuno to obtain the Rare/Ex item Themis Orb. Upon receiving the orb, make your way to the Horlais Peak zone located in the Yughott Grotto dungeon.

Be advised that a full alliance can enter the battlefield, that there is no level cap for this quest, and that there is a 30 minute time limit that starts the moment the orb trader enters the battlefield.

Upon entering the battlefield, you will find Chlevnik, a Behemoth type mob.

In order to spawn the Armoury Crate, Chlevnik must be defeated within the allotted time.

Strategies

A common strategy involves a similar setup alliance setup as one would take to fight King Behemoth, using a couple Paladins (usually subbing Ninja with White Mages and Red Mages, and an assortment of Black Mages and melee jobs.

Upon entering the battlefield, a Paladin will run in first and use Flash to draw hate on Chlevnik, then proceed to run him towards the exit as the melee and black mages start doing damage to him. Whenever Chlevnik begins to cast Meteor, it is suggested to use a command to determine what member of the alliance has hate, and have that person start running away as quickly as they can while the rest of the alliance attempts to avoid it by running in the opposite direction. As Chlevnik is casting, having the other Paladin draw hate on him often helps to interrupt its casting.

• Be advised though that Chlevnik has a tendency to use Thunderbolt prior to using Meteor, so it is recommended to keep hp levels up as best you can in case you must survive a Thunderbolt/Meteor combo.

Just continue to deal damage and attempt to keep the Meteor damage to a minimum and Chlevnik will eventually fall.

• Be advised, after its hp drops to zero, Chlevnik will instant cast an exceptionally powerful Meteor that will most assuridely kill anyone in range, so it is recommended to have one BLM or melee with TP to finish Chlevnik off and one Paladin with hate on it to pull it in one direction while the rest of the alliance moves out of range.
