Just looking for clarification
Well hello everyone on Alexander!!!


I figure this would be the best place to ask this. I have read all the forums and threads that i could find on the 2-3 Mission for bastok, when it comes to the Black Dragon that i need to defeat in Windy i am still a little shady. One post says anyone who has already completed the mission can enter, others say only those who have completed the mission and fought the same dragon can go in. Which is it? I am planning on fighting it sometime this weekend and i don't want to get a party together just to find out that 3 of the members can't go in. So if anyone has more insite into this matter I would greatly appreciate the INFO!!

Re: Just looking for clarification
If you're rank 3+, then you can go in, or if you're on the same mission and need to fight the same dragon. Any higher rank friends you have can help you out on it. When I did it years ago, we had people in our party who had beaten all three dragons while helping various people do it. (I think I even did the Bastok one later on, but its too long to remember which one I did the second time around.)

Re: Just looking for clarification
If people are even halfway competent, its a joke. Apple Pie has solo'd it as a RDM, and I know several people who duo'd it. Get decent gear, and either sleep the dragon or the flyer first. (Seen it done both ways.) ES the sleep too, just to make sure it sticks and last for a bit. Then pick one, hack away at it, then kill the other. It really not too hard. Two tanks, a blm, and a rdm attacking, and two people keeping them alive should be more than enough.
Good luck.

Re: Just looking for clarification
Duo'd this dragon a while back as BRD25/WHM12 with a MNK25/WAR12. Easy as pie. Get a level 25+ monk to Hundred Fists, Sleep the dragon, and coast to an easy win (but don't forget a couple holy water and hipotions for emergencies in case of Curse).
