Semi-reliable info - Just need to go to DEEP MonastiCav/Oztroja/QulunDome and click the ???? near the NM bosses.
(The catch is the NM bosses can see through your invisi/sneak)
that was fast... has anyone solved the summoner and dragoon jobs yet?

i hear rumours that the summoner quest is in windurst, requirements, i dunno.
the dragoon is not available yet, neither is the samurai or ninja. They're all jobs that you need the expansion disk for.
Only summoner is released now (to my knowledge anyway) and only a few weak summons are available. The better summons -> buy expansion. ^^;;

If I were to make random guesses I would say that Summoner is in Wind, Dragoon in Sand and Ninja/Samurai in Bastok, but they really are guesses. I don't think you're gonna get reliable info for the new jobs of places like 2ch directly. Best off waiting for the FFXI fan sites to post the details. ff11fan.net is normally quick with these things and there are some good FFXI-only boards too.

Some friends and I talked to every NPC in windurst tonight and no one gave the quest. I'm hoping someone will be able to clue us in tomorrow afternoon.

We all done it and man its HARD AND SUCKS
Get 3 beast sumbols (whee Maat)
ALL GUARDED BY NM/Monsters
sneak/invis is patched and more difficult to maintain
sneak/invis will cancel by touching ???
sneak/invs wont work on the nms
Orc ??? = monastic hex spinner cave (the altar place
Quad ??? = qulun dome deepest part (the altar place
Yag ??? = high priest/etc area (the altar place
Get some gay title after.

The quest sounds easy but it isn't. I was soooooooo freaaakkkinng fustrated after completing the first one and was hella mad when I reached oztroja, expiriencing the lags. Man its a living hell...
>Sheila
OMG, we are planning to try the jail tonight but the EXp you got are..... kinda horrible. Btw we tried Dread Demons and... TOTE monsters are hella strong. Looks like its impossible for us to get Lv62 before Girade is out *sob sob*

Very hard indeed, I think the word INSANE suits it more.....
This is what happened in the trip for those that wonder what happened.
We first started from Davoi, nothing extremelly there I guess. The orcs were spread accross monsticav so we fought them slowly and eventually made our way into the ??? place.
OZ got extremely hard.... the HP room mad links.... ??? is guarding by HP and Templar. We had around 30-36 ppl going, and we ran into another alliance while we got to OZ, but over 20 ppl died alteast. I got d/c there (nooo ><) then when I came back, and got invited, I couldn't get to the ??? and touch it coz 4 yagudos were in the way TT. Finally, we couldn't hold back the birds so everyone casted escape. When we got outside, leader asked who didn't get the ??? and I slowly raised my hand, feeling really bad about myself >< Then a very kind whm offered to help me to go on a 2 ppl PT and get the ??? quickly and so we went back. When we got there, another 40 ppl were standing on the trap door waiting to drop down (mad lag) so we followed. After we got in, we put invis on ourselves and dashed straight for the ???. Since the NM yagudos can see thru invis, i quickly touched the ??? while I tured pld invincible on, and the whm casted escape. Got out safely, and got the ??? touched!
Bedo is not much better... about another 20 ppl died coz sneak wouldn't work on the NMs. The leader tried to do it in 3 groups of 2PTs so it would be easier to control, but I guess not much difference. Dead ppl all over. I ran straight towards the ???, then I touched it, then as usual, I died, lol. Wasn't a boring death at all tho coz in the radar, I can see atleast 10 dots so more than 10 ppl was dead around me ^^
Fighting the monster is very hard especially in bedo coz it's so crowded there u would almost definitely get linked. Bebe scanned the monster (he's 60) and the normal monsters were tote and 2 NMs were in the same room.
Probable solution?
Dunno how someone is gonna use this with a large group, but when I did a second run in OZ, invincible + escape worked really well. When the yagudos were all attacking me, the mage had enough time to cast escape to get us out.
good luck everyone ^^

Oz was pure BS. COULD NOT LOAD.
Jail is awful exp, and the tote monsters are all clumped+link+dangerous types to be leveling on.
This is not a level dungeon, its definately a mission dungeon.
Delkfut tower top open, according to ppl theres totetote+ to 60 there.
I doubt anyone can pass the cap3 without 234234 alliances and mass lag..

yes, the lag was so horrible it takes forever for the ??? to appear, just like the aunction counter TT
i passed it...
my alliance went to davoi first. we were like the first group of people to log in game. so davoi turned out to be easiest. no lag, no people. we killed everything and found the ??? with out any problem.
OZ was different. there's 2 other full alliance there dieing and fighting all over the place. while they were dieing my alliance just run up and check the ???
some people did jumped in and help the battle. several WHM died from that ^^;
(other alliance are dead all over the place)
BD...... dead body everywhere. once we reached the hard area, atleast 5 dead body lieing all around the cursed trees. that place was a mess. I was sneaking my way through and just got cursed when our stupid WAR taunt the mage. 1 stonega3 and im dead....
well glad i passed it

I think you guys went to complete the quest too quickly :biggrin: Too many people in the same area = too crowded = lag = can't even see the monsters. ;)
I just finished this quest 10 minutes ago, and it was pretty straight forward. Just 1 death out of the whole 2-alliance. We were all pretty patient and killed one monster at a time :)
At the end it actually saved us time. From take off to quest complete took me about 4 hours.

Far I tried to /tell you back congrats, but you either DC or couldn't receieve tell.
Everyone logically wanted to break cap right after patch download, so everyone was gonna be doing it. Even if we can see monsters, the changed sneak/invis properties made a mess moving around. The stronger monsters and not being able to load their position was the worst. Then there were people who didn't plan on fighting and hoped to leech other's work.
I recall an english say going "Just get it and run out". That shore made us look good.
