Rank 8 1/2 San d'oria.
Mission 6-1: Go to West Altepa Desert and kill a Cactuar NM. The more people you have, the easier. Make sure you clear out the other Cactuar before you click on the ???.
Mission 6-2: Go to King Ranperre Tomb and go to H-8. This requires people over lvl 60 and AT LEAST more than 14 people. When your ready click on the door and fight 3 Skeleton NM. As with all Multi-boss battles in ANY RPG, Concentrate on one at a time. Go back to the Gate house guard and wait a day (Real time i think, probably some where around 8-12 hours) and get futher intructions there
Mission 7-1: You know that sewer cover in the jail? Guess where your going...
Once you drop down, you probably will get attacked by slimes. They are a little strong, so kill them, and then sneak/invis up (It might take a while to just fight through if your party isn't strong enough) and keep heading right. You should end up at a staircase. Zone and don't go too far, your in West Ron. Your going to fight an Orc NM (Monk) when you trigger the ??. When it uses Hundred Fists, have the paladin (I hope you have one) use it's 2 hour. No problem when we did it, went down quickly.
Mission 7-2: Holy sh*t This is a hard battle. Simply becuase of the fact that you really need a carefully balanced party if your going to have any hope of Winning, you got to have a cool head and know what's going on. This is what your up Against
2 Orc Tanks
3 Orc NMs (One DRG, One RNG, and One PLD)
This of this as a BCNM 40 On steriods.... cuase it will REALLY help you if you have a BRD or a BLM (With Sleepaga II). You'll get swarmed with Orcs.
Take out the two tanks first (One of the left, then the right), Then take out the DRG orc (Including Wyvern) RNG (Watch for the Eagle eye shot, it killed me) Then of course, the PLD.
Mission 8-1: Now this one is just annoying. Get alot of people together and go to Quicksand caves. Go to the enterance south from the Altep Crystal (This area should be familar to DRGs if you got your feet from here). Go all the way down into the sandy tunnel on your left. You might as well just plow through the monsters and save your TP, becuase you will want to save it.
In the room where there's a ???, you will have to fight 2 Sea monk NMs. They will Cast Silencega and Paralyzaga, and have a Blind Ability... That's the annoying part, so watch out mages, and be sure to carry some Echo potions just in case.
All i got up to..
