All The Assaut Info I could find.

-You unlock it after the second(first, really) mission, along with Mog Locker.
-The 'level cap' per say is the highest level in the party. Monsters are based around that level.
-You have time limit to find the end.
-You can only Assault at places that you supplied(think Outpost). You do your first supply quest on the second mission. You also can teleport there at cost of (whatever-signet thing) points.
-You can buy a lot of different kinds of armor with Assault Points(which you get from Assault). This list includes Yagit set(the mage one with MAB). I didn't check the whole list, but I can add it on. There are 7 NPCs (atm) for these region/outposts/Asssault. Each one has their own store for your points and mission lists.

Nice, Yigit set purchasable, alogn with the other new sets I assume.

GOOD MOVE SE

I was really worried they would be some style of Abjuration-esk gear

People obviously don't have time to look at a map and write down the <pos>, cause that would be too hard.

**BRP** · 2006-04-20 03:32

I'm going in with 3.

It seems to be totally instanced.

Okay... more info(or at least, more explaination).

Each zone has a map(cept one of them, forget the name, that has like 7).

Every mission happens in the same map. However missions are different. The first one we did involve breaking stones. There were huge rocks with HP in blocking the way. My nukes got resisted heavily on it. However we could not beat it with our resources(WAR/NIN, BLM/RDM, and MNK/WAR). The two bombs hit hard and can blow up.

Each zone has it's own store and its own collection of points. So idealy you need to farm certain area for certain points. Each list usually contains 1 piece of each of the new armor. It's pretty awesome, but it can mean a lot of work. Some of the best lvl 60 armor I could imagine is also listed there.

You can set the cap at 50, 60, 70, and no cap. Furthermore, the monsters are based on the highest level. One person picks the rules at the cost of 50 signet/whatever points.

You get normal exp and drops. We got some Bomb ash and KSeal. Also got a exp chain 1 on two Ts.

The 'keyitem' required for the zone stays on, even if you exit. You can cancel, but I haven't bothered to find out how. I'm going to try again tomorrow with 6.

Finally, you get a free teleport to the 'outpost'/staging point when doing Assault, but you can not leave it while having the keyitem.

Nice info, i plan to try this right away. Is it similar to WoW instances?

**Illverin** · 2006-04-20 05:05

I just did Imperial Agency Recruit Mission. Uncapped and we went with 5 ppl. pld, war, thf, rdm, whm. We did not win as we did not know what we were doing. We managed to kill all but a couple of the mobs inside. They were listed as tough mobs but had the defense of an IT. The time limit was 30 minutes

**Akumaronin** · 2006-04-20 05:24

We just did this as PLD, WAR, RDM, RDM, BLM. We managed to kill all Mamool Ja, but we didn't win. The main problem is, we couldn't find the guy that you're supposed to save. Whatever, these are confusing as hell, but fun at the same time.

**Ichthyos** · 2006-04-20 05:28

I just attempted the first Mamool Ja Training Grounds Assault Mission, "Imperial Agent Rescue" with some friends (NIN SAM THF RDM SMN SMN, all 75). There were 10-15 mobs to kill in 30 minutes, Tough to 75. We killed everything in 20 minutes, but couldn't find the person to rescue. There were green-text targets left in rooms behind doors that we couldn't target, though... Maybe we were supposed to Invis around and maybe the Mamool Ja's open the doors?

Same here. My group barely beat all the mobs the first time, and the second time we plowed through them all with 10 minutes left. We weren't sure if we just missed something the first time so we did it again, only to find out that it looks like it's bugged or we're completely missing the point.

Maybe you need widescan? I hear they wanted to make jobs abilities more useful now. Try having a RNG or BST with you next time so they can try scanning for NPC locations.

**rahskala** · 2006-04-20 07:31

RNG has devolved from the top ranged damage dealer in the game to a widescan whore, lol

The real question I'd like to know: How many hours/weeks/months will we have to spend doing assault to get (for example) that new mage set, or any of the other really high-level stuff?

I haven't won assault but you get 100 points for losing and it's 20000 for each of the Yagit/etc pieces. The neckpieces (like the STR+3 ACC+5 one) were 8000. Trying to remember a few of the other things offhand but my memory is bad and I'm not logged in.

**Ozoko** · 2006-04-20 10:24

inside mambook one atm, cant work it out atall

**epigram** · 2006-04-20 10:30

I went off trying to charm and kill stuff all night so I never got around to doing the missions :/

So how often can you do assault? I kinda want the body, gloves, and legs in the Pln. set.

**Ozoko** · 2006-04-20 10:33
