The Secret Weapon

San d'Oria-Mission 7-2

Walkthrough

 * Trading four stacks of crystals or repeating San d'Oria Mission 1-2 eight times will give the necessary rank points for this mission.
 * When you have enough rank points, instead of offering you the list of missions, the gate guard will tell you to go to the garden in Chateau d'Oraguille.
 * Go to F-8 in Chateau d'Oraguille to trigger a cutscene.
 * Return to the gate guard after the cutscene to receive the actual mission.
 * Head to Ghelsba Outpost > Yughott Grotto > Horlais Peak. Only people who are currently on or who have already completed this mission will be allowed to enter the battlefield.
 * Only 6 party members are permitted to enter.
 * This BCNM is level capped at level 75.
 * There is no Experience Points loss upon dying inside this BCNM.
 * It is recommended that you have a BLM with Sleepga II, or a Bard, or a BLU.


 * Upon entering the battlefield, you will find 2 Warmachines and 3 Orcs:
 * Darokbok of Clan Reaper (PLD)
 * Derakbak of Clan Wolf (DRG)
 * Jagidbod of Clan Reaper (RNG)
 * Wolf Clan Warmachine
 * Reaper Clan Warmachine


 * The Orcs are susceptible to both Sleep and Lullaby. The Warmachines can be slept using ES+ Sleepga II. They can also be slept by a well-geared RDM/BLM, BRD, or a WHM/BLM. Darokbok of Clan Reaper seems to be somewhat more resistant to Sleep than the others.
 * The mobs are all level 68. The Warmachines have ~1800 HP, the Orcs ~4000, the Wyvern ~1000.
 * The BLM should run in and Elemental Seal + Sleepga II the orcs. The order of the BCNM should be Warmachine, Warmachine, PLD, DRG, wyvern, RNG. (Confirmed you do not have to kill the wyvern to win)
 * Orcs and Warmachines exhibit super-linking and cannot be pulled separately, getting hate on one will link all of them regardless of where they are within the arena.
 * Once the BCNM is cleared, you obtain the key item Crystal Dowser. Report back to a gate guard to finish the mission.

Game Description

 * Mission Orders:Reports from Ghelsba indicate that the Orcs in Yughott Grotto are up to something. Investigate, but speak of this to no one.
