Castle Oztraja sucks, just wasted a night trying to solo this, cant do the levers without getting aggro, some high level JP player the same rank passed me when i got aggro and didnt give two ***** to help.
So, this can be soloed by a level 41BST/DNC. Did this today, and while luck needs to be on your side, it can be done.
For the 2 NM's...I cleared the area prior and took down the first one with a single crab, lots of heals, and Zeta biscuits. I admit that I had help on the 2nd one, but I know it is possible as I completed the first one alright. Wait until Call BST timer is low to first go after NM Quadevs.
For Castle O, Sneak and Invis. When you get to the switch for the door/trap, do as stated above and pull then move off...safe. When you get to the alter room area, use your pet to grab hate from Yags, then activate door. When you activate door, your pet goes with you, and all hate is lost. Repeat this a tad further to activate last door.
Easy if you use instructions, and have a bit of luck. Took me from start to finish about 3.5 hours today.
I am already rank 4 but it wont let me do this mission! I am a level 48RDM why wont it let me do this? The ambassador just says "For the time being, apply your efforts to are righteous conquest of the regions adjent to Jueno."
Just try trading some crystals to one of the guards in jeuno till you about half way thought rank 4. worked for me. or you can go back to your hometown and redo some missions to get more rank points.
I completed this entire mission as lvl 30 RDM with a friend who was also a lvl 30 RDM. If you're smart about aggro avoidance and reapplying your sneak/invis, you can complete this mission without having to resort to an alliance. Using powders and oils is much more useful and efficient in this mission than using the magic equivalents, so don't cheap out. It is strongly recommended to have at least one person with Cursna and Silena that lets them self be cursed with you in Beadeaux.
When I get to the door at I-8, and activate either handle, wherther I'm standing away from them, up close to them , or in the middle of them. Hitting either one. All it says is "Cannot Reach Target". What do i do?
Have *EVERYONE* stand back and away from the doory. Send the Black Mage to test the levers, as if he triggers the trapdoor he can just escape and come back. The levers are different for every alliance, so just have one member try them. If the Black Mage is successful, then let him trigger the lever and have everyone else run inside the door.
Or you could stand between the levers, click one and then run off the trap to see if the door or the floor opens.
