FFXI QUEST:Saintly Invitation
| Contents [hide] |
Mission Orders
A mission issued by Heavens Tower. In reply to the Yagudo Holy One's invitation, you are to compete and triumph at the contest held at Balga's Dais deep within Giddeus.
Walkthrough
After receiving the mission go see Star Sibyl in Heavens Tower (located in Windurst Walls). She tells you about a competition between the Yagudo and Windurst and gives you an invitation to participate. Your title becomes "Hero on Behalf of Windurst".
Go to the Burning Circle located in Balga's Dais which lies in Giddeus. When ready, enter the burning circle, selecting the battle "Saintly Invitation."
This is a 1 party battle and up to 6 people may enter. You will fight 4 named Yagudo:
- Nuu Kofu the Gentle (WHM)
- Chaa Paqa the Profound (SMN)
- Buu Xolo the Bloodfaced (SAM)
- Juu Zeni the Poisonmist (NIN)
After winning the fight you will receive the key item: Balga Champion Certificate. You are then told to go see a Yagudo at the top of Castle Oztroja and receive an Ashura Necklace. Go to the top of Oztroja where the treasure coffer key mobs are found. Fight them until one "Judgment Key" is dropped. You only need one key for your entire alliance.
Continue on to the Brass Door at (F-4). Have one party member collect "passwords" at torches located at (G-7), (G-8), (H-7), and (H-8). The passwords reset each game day. Once you fall through the trap door, you will have to get past a Yagudo High Priest to get to another Brass Door. It may be difficult for your whole alliance to get past safely as the high priest can see through invisible.
Trade the Judgment Key to the Brass Door. The key has only ONE use then will disappear, so make sure everyone is at the door entrance and ready to head through before you open it. This door does NOT stay open long and cannot be opened from the inside. The only thing you can do is have a person die and then be tractored over to the other side.
Speak with Kaa Toru the Just, who stands just inside the door. He will give you a key item: Holy One's Oath and an Ashura Necklace. Return to Windurst and speak to the Star Sibyl to complete the mission. You will be pardoned from your crimes in the previous mission, attain Rank 7, and receive 40000 gil.

Strategies
As with other multiple mob BC fights, bring a BRD or a BLM to sleep the mobs you are not currently fighting. It is probably best to kill in the order WHM > SMN > SAM > NIN. Be careful of SMN and NIN 2hr attacks as they can hurt everyone badly. Only 1 party up to 6 people can enter at a time. The fight is easier than BCNM60 for any PT of 6 lvl65+. Try to have as balanced a PT as possible. No provokers and lots of mages can succeed but it is difficult. Note that only players who have received the Saintly Invitation mission or completed it (not just fought the BC) can enter the BC. This means that if you fight the BC, you will have to do the second part of the mission in Castle Oztroja and see the final cut scene in Heaven's Tower before you can do the fight again. No immediate turnaround, so don't have people sit out unless they are planning on waiting a hour or more.
