The Emissary

Bastok-Mission 2-3

Walkthrough

 * NOTE: I had to trade one crystal (one single, not a stack) to a guard before I could accept this mission, or repeat 2-1 Lizard Eggs 1 time(s)
 * Talk to the Bastok Gate Guard to start the mission.
 * Speak with Naji by the President's Office in Metalworks, a cutscene will play and they will escort you to President Karst.
 * You will then be able to ask him questions about various topics and once you are done he will ask you to head to San d'Oria or Windurst.

 * Head to the Consulate of Bastok in Northern San d'Oria. Speak with Baraka (K-10) the receptionist and then speak with Helaku in the back room.
 * Next go to Chateau d'Oraguille and talk to Halver (I-9). He will request that you to head to Ghelsba Outpost.
 * Go out to H-7 in Ghelsba Outpost to find an Orc named Warchief Vatgit. Defeat him (he can be soloed at level 20).
 * NOTE: You may stand in Ghelsba Outpost at the zone to West Ronfaure and have someone else go up and kill Warchief Vatgit. As long as you are in the party of the person who defeats Warchief Vatgit and are somewhere in the zone at the time of his death, you will get credit for killing him.
 * NOTE2: Just attempted the above. It did not give title to the players waiting behind. In zone. In party.
 * Return to the Consulate of Bastok in San d'Oria and speak again with Helaku who will ask you to head now to Windurst.
 * Head to Port Windurst and speak with Melek (F-6) who represents the Consulate of Bastok. She will instruct you to head to Heavens Tower and speak to Kupipi, who will give a key to Giddeus. ( key item : Dark Key )
 * After speaking with Melek, walk across to the building opposite the consulate to the top of the Orastery and let Machu-Kuchu E-7 warp you to Windurst Walls.
 * Purchase a map of Giddeus, find a level 25 party (with someone that can sleep), and bring antidotes (White Mages may need reraiser). Make sure your gear is level 25 or under, as you will be fighting a BCNM fight that is capped at Level 25.  Only Invisible is needed inside Giddeus.  Once inside of Giddeus, head to (G-12) to zone into Balga's Dais.
 * NOTE: Since the addition of the new Level Sync System, Characters with gear over level 25 can still use leveled down versions of their higher level gear.
 * Upon entering the battlefield and receiving a cutscene, you will find Searcher and Black Dragon.  The order of the fight is recommended to kill Searcher and then Black Dragon.  The Black Mage should use Elemental Seal + Sleep on the dragon while everyone kills the Searcher.  Once Searcher is gone, the dragon will die quickly.  This dragon has a very potent AOE poison attack that does 10 damage per tick, which makes antidotes necessary.  He also may curse the tanks. NOTE: As a heads up, take into consideration that his only curse debuff is not an AoE move, and only works on the person he is facing toward.  Use this to your advantage when you get to the dragon by warning your fellow Damage Dealers to stay away from the frontal part of the dragon and let the tank be there instead. You may even have your tank bring a couple of holy water's along if desired in case of emergency.
 * Can be completed by a PLD/WAR and WAR/MNK.

 * Can be completed by a DNC/NIN with a few healing potions and Icarus Wing
 * Can be completed by a THF/NIN with X-bow and Venom Bolts, 1 Au Lait, 1 Hi-Potion.
 * After you have defeated the BCNM, take the Kindred Crest back to Port Windurst and speak with Melek again. She will give you The Kindred Report.

 * Talk to Melek in the embassy in Port Windurst, who will send you to Heavens Tower. Talk to Kupipi to receive the magical sword.  Return to the consulate of Bastok in Port Windurst and speak with Gold Skull. He will exchange the Sword Offering for a Dull Sword.  Head to Giddeus.
 * Go to the Storage Room located in the tunnels of Giddeus on map 2, and once finding it, you will see it is guarded by an NPC Yagudo named Uu Zhoumo at (F-7). He will tell you that the sword you have is not good enough to offer, and that he'd rather have the blade used by Eyy Mon the Ironbreaker, a Yagudo named that spawns not far away. Kill Eyy Mon the Ironbreaker until everyone has an Aspir Knife and then return to Uu Zhoumo at the door to the treasure room again and trade him the Aspir Knife.

 * At this point check your mission log, if you are at the correct point it will tell you to go Investigate Yughott Grotto. There is NO key item for this fight
 * You will need to form a level 25 party (highly suggested that you have a BLM or RDM for sleep) and make your way to Horlais Peak. You need to go through Ghelsba Outpost to get here. From Ghelsba Outpost you can go through either Yughott Grotto or Fort Ghelsba - follow the maps to make your way there.
