If Diabolos was two bitches Ouryu had to be at least 5. We're finally done with that crappy mission and onto bigger and better things. The Sacrarium. Crawling with Formors and Undead we've got our work cut out for us. Firstly CS's and prep.
PM 4-2 Done
PM 4-3 done.
And all set on CS's for this mission.
We'll need a couple of things for this battle and getting there.
Everyone will need Sneak. Either the spell or Oils will suffice here. Formor's and Undead all aggro to sound. Undead is also Blood Aggro so we'll have to watch HP or things can go south very quickly.
Tanks and DD should bring Food etc. The mages should bring their typical stockpile of Yag Drinks and Hi-Ethers. A RR earring or two wouldn't be a bad idea either.
That's pretty much items. Not too much required for this mission.
For this mission we're normally supposed to have to fight a Corse mob named Keremet. I already have the key we need from him so we won't be fighting him. What we will be fighting is a Ghost type mob named Old Professor Mariselle.
What can we expect to see from the Old Prof:
Not too bad right? Just the typical Ghost type attacks. He also teleports around the room he spawns in. He also spawns two pupils to help him fight. We won't focus on them as they will just keep coming back and they depop when the Prof dies.
Party setup will be your average EXP party setup. Nothing fancy.
We can try for something like this in two full parties:
Party 1:The other slots in the parties are wildcard but should include Mostly Melee and DD's.
Nothing too hard about strategy here. Basically we'll be walking around at first killing formor's to get a Coral Crest Key. After we're done with that, depending on how many Formor's we have to kill we may need to go out to Lufaise or Misareaux and kill some beastmen before proceeding. The next thing we have to do is head to (H-7) in the Sacrarium and use the key's we have to open the door there. The Coral Key will be traded first then the Sealion Crest Key second. The door will open and we'll all pile in to get a CS @ (G-8). Someone who's completed the mission will stay behind the door so they can reopen it when we have to come back. This is so we don't have to farm a second Coral Crest Key.
After everyone has their CS and is ready to go we'll head back out into the Sacrarium and look for a ??? @ either F-5, G-5, H-5, F-11, G-11, H-11. There will be ???'s at all of those locations but only one of them will spawn the Prof. Inside each of the rooms with the ??? are about 10 Formor mobs. It is crucial that no one has Formor hate because if you do you will take aggro.
We will send one person in to check the ???. If the NM pops that person will bring the NM outside the door where we will fight it. It will teleport back into the room from time to time. If the SMN keeps his pet on him he can pull the NM back outside the door to us. This will make it easier to avoid Formor blood aggro, on the off chance someone does have some Formor hate. Once he's dead everyone will head into the room and check the ??? to get a Key Item. Then we'll head back to the Door at (H-7) and the person waiting behind the door will let us in. One more CS at the door at (G-8) and we're done with this mission.
All in all this will be a quick mission. Depending on time, we may do the following mission on Wednesday as well.
