Mission Orders

Brilliant lights, fearsome beasts, a mysterious laboratory... What do all these have to do with the strange boy brought back to Doctor Monberaux's clinic in Upper Jeuno?

Description

This is the first mission in the Chains of Promathia (CoP) expansion mission set, most stumble upon this by accident zoning monsters to Delkfutt's tower and get confused by the new mission log system. This first mission is split in to three parts, when you are done you will notice the mission The Rites of Life in your CoP mission log and below it three slightly indented sections, most mistake these as separate missions.

This first missions is the same as the Zilart as it is entirely made up of a series of cut scenes that introduce you to the storyline. To start the first cut scene (if you haven't stumbled upon it yet) you must travel to Lower Delkfutt's Tower located in Qufim Island. Once you enter, you will be witness to a cut scene involving Jeunonian Scientists trying to operate a strange device. Disaster occurs. The only thing left in the room is the Enigmatic Youth. Wolfgang then sends someone to fetch the doctor.

Once you have observed this cutscene, head to Upper Jeuno, another cut scene will commence involving Wolfgang, Monberaux, and the Enigmatic Youth. Once this cut scene ends, head to area (G-10) and talk to Monberaux, where another cut scene takes place. You will receive a Key Item, the Mysterious Amulet.

Congratulations! You have now completed CoP Mission 1-1.

first mission of CoP?

in the CoP section of missions I have something called "Ancient Flames Beckon" as the first thing on the list, when I click on it the text box where the mission descrition would be is blank, and this was already in the completed section as soon as I installed CoP.

also, I don't know if this is some kind of glitch or what but my current mission for CoP shows as current and completed, even though I just started it. I finished The Rites of Life and am now on Below the Arks.

Ancient Flames Beckon is what you have to choose when you go to fight the BCNM at the very bottom of Promyvion. I fought Promyvion - Mea BCNM and goddamn it was tough. We almost won, and would have if our whm had gotten of benediction (the NM used his carousel move which did 290ish damage to me and knocks everyone way back so the whm was no longer in range) or if the WAR/NIN had used his 2hr or kept hate (which is incredibly hard to do with this mob). Anyway, tough fight but easy if you use that special anima or if you've done it before and know what to do. My suggestion? Take it down slowly without any 2hr's, then when it gets low and starts to spam carousel, that's when you 2hr to try to take it down from there as quickly as possible.
Not on in-game list?

I may be wrong, but I could swear that this quest does not show up on the in-game listings of completed quests or missions. If it is on there, I haven't been able to find it.

I'm doing some wrong....

I heard about this mission from my Ls and decided to try it. I have loaded up Chains of Promathia and then went out to Delkfutt's. I entered the tower and nothing happened. I checked and it said Lower Delkfutt's so I decided I probably have to go farther down into the tower, all the way to the basement where I went for mission 3-3.

Anyways I go down there with my Key and still nothing happens. So I leave and go to Jueno and decide to give it one more try and head upwards into the tower. I enter the tower and still nothing happens.

I asked my LS and checked to see if I couldn't have any other missions open or something and they said that I could have other missions going and still do this one.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?

Make sure you registered the expansion with your account on POL like you did for the Zilart expansion.

I hit 41 as a Drk and got my rank 5! Yay! So I decided since I can travel almost anywhere fast I wanted to farm in Quifim and I was like maybe I could kill some giants in the tower. I enter it and it takes a while to load. <thinking server problems?> I was wrong it actually was a trigger for the CoP missions. 0_0 was the expression on my face as I viewed the cutscene. I'm not gonna reveal anything! :p
