Zilart Mission Information here!

[Asharu]

This is some information I've put together for those looking to start Zilart missions. Good luck

ZM1: After defeating the Shadow Lord, go to Norg for the cutscene.

ZM2: Talk to Gilgamesh in Norg.

ZM3: Talk to the Mithra leader in Kazham for the Sacrificial Chamber Key.

ZM4*: 3 Tonberry BCNM fight in Sacrificial Chamber. You will need 4 unlit lanterns (1 for each member), dropped by Tonberry Maledictors in the Temple.

ZM5*: Collect 7 Prays from Cermet Headstones. 4 of them will pop a NM. (Locations: La Theine [through Ordelles], Western Altepa Desert [through Quicksands], Cloister of Frost [through Fei'Yin], Behemoth Dominion (NM), Sanctuary of Zi'tah (NM), Cape Terrigan (NM), and Yuhtunga JUngle [through Ifrit's Cauldron](NM))

ZM6*: 3 Antican BCNM fight in Chamber of Oracles.

ZM7*: Stellar Fulcrum BCNM fight (top of Delkfutt's Tower) vs spoiler! (Recommended levels: 70+)

ZM8: Go to Norg and talk to Gilgamesh.

ZM9: Examine the gate in Hall of the Gods for a quick cutscene.

ZM10: Return to Norg and talk to Gilgamesh again.

ZM11: Talk to the Mithra NPC in Rabao.

ZM12*: Pot NM in Quicksand Caves. (Instead of taking the western drop to get to Chamber of Oracles, take the eastern drop and you'll see the ??? in the area you drop).

ZM13: Cutscene in Hall of the Gods. You can now go to Tu'Lia!

ZM14*: Ark Angel BCNM battles x 5.

ZM15: Not yet completed.

ZM16: Nope, not yet.

ZM17: Maybe some day

Note: ZMs marked with "*" will require a party.

Any information on where to go to reset tonberry rancor hate for the first ZM BC battle? I did the 3 gold beastcoin, but can't find info on the location where to actually reset it and how much it costs >_<

[Asharu]

Hmm.... it's in the first area when you enter the Temple. There's a hidden wall that you have to open. Inside is a tonberry that will reset your hate for a price (I think the price is based upon how much hate you have). Ill try to find the info for you.

So does that first ZM you get when you start the game ("New Frontier") just require going to Norg when you get Rank 6? And that's when you get the Norg map?

That's when you get the Norg map.. and you get to see ZM1 cutscene after you get rank6

Ash. About how long do you think it will take to do each mission?From what it seems, you could do most of it in 1 weekend?

As for accessing Ru'Aun Gardens area. My JP LS told me you could do it after you do the "Delkfutt Again" Mission (ZM7 on your list). Are they correct? It seems I can only go there after ZM12 according to your list.

I really want to do these, but I'm thinking gathering the people will take a while...

[tazirai]

moving this to where it belongs..good info ..even thoughits already posted ^^

[Faluzure]

Where'd you move it to? Oh and btw, i noticed you've done them also. Is there anything you want to add to Asharu's post? Something I should know about or maybe more detail?

EDIT: Ok, i see where you moved it. I didn't know so many Zilart threads existed. One question though, about the JM5 (The Prays). Can I solo the ones without the NMs? I'm assuming if I get a party, the PT won't want to go all over the place with me to collect them. I think they'd rather only help me with the NM fights instead.

[Malachite]

The ones without NM are definately soloable, and quite simple if you know where to go.

[Deedlit]

Could someone post recommended PT levels for the missions that require a PT?

I'd say 65 is minimum for any of them, whether its BCNM or Alliance. When I ran through them the lowest member I had was 63, but he was a RDM. The levels mainly ranged from 66-70 (me being the only level higher than 75).

As for the Delkfutt's mission, I'd say be at least upper 60s because the boss here is HARD.

[Vinen]

I can tell you that ZM5 requires more then a group of a 67PLD, 69RDM, 65BLM, 67SAM, 67RNG, 66WHM.

$(#$ Frog Flesh whatever in Zi'Tah double hit on the Paladin for 250 a hit about 500 a round sometimes. We couldnt beat it with that group havent went back yet with more.

On the other hand this same group had no problem handling the 2 weapons at the same time in Behemoths Domain --;

Anyhow, could anyone give me directions on how to get the piece thats locations at Quicksand Caves -> West Altepta? I dont know Quicksand caves that well and cant piece anything toghter on how to get it.

[Faluzure]

For ZM5, I took an alliance for all the NM parts. The Doomed Pilgrim (Zi'Tah NM) definitely needed several healers. The other NMs were cake but its really good to take an alliance of at least 7-12 just for safe measure for raises, aggro, etc. We had more WHMs & RDMs than any other type of job.

You actually don't have to go to Quicksand Caves to get to the piece. I went through Quicksand Caves, came out to WEst Altepa, walked through the hallways and then noticed there was a ramp leading up to the ground level. As for the position, I dont' know exactly cuz I dont' have a map I can look at but its around the Southeast middle. You should see a bunch of windy lower level corridors.

[Vinen]

are you sure its a ramp that can actually be used?
Anyhow you remember which quicksand enterance you went to and if it was in eastern or western? I tried zoning into the one western one before I realized you couldnt do anything from that one solo do to all the enterances to places required other people unless you are fat galka. =o. That is unless there are more enterances from west that i dont know about which is possible.
