That's pretty much what I meant to say, sorry for the slip up. Anyway, I am not sure such a score can be reached. It would seem I have a perfect score unless you can get more points from the other NPCs.

I think there is a chance you might be able to get more signatures for answering fast if nothing else. I doubt it because for all but one I was able to answer them very quickly. The one I didn't was the set of questions about the number of Orc units. It just so happens someone on wiki is claiming he got 5 signatures instead of the normal 4 from that question. I think it is more likely he was mistaken.

EDIT: Did everyone else get 35 signatures from Rongelouts(winning three times) and can someone else confirm 4 crossbow bolts are the max amount you can trade to Hauberliond?

Excuse me, question, where's the final BC fought? Is it our first taste of WoE?

The final BCNM is fought in Ruhotz Silvermines.

Bah, weak. Thanks for the info though. *runs off to edit the other wiki*

Here's a couple tips for the beau minigames:

• For red light green light, when the cat does a partial turn, it will ALWAYS turn away from you afterwards. Play it safe and advance only when it does the partial turn.
• You can force DC during your third turn to retry the minigame. It has to be after you accept the failure messages from your second try, and are in the actual game part of your third try.

I noticed for Portia, if she looks side to side whilst she is standing, it will take an extra 2 seconds for her to respond after you hit "now!" My strat was to hit "now!" when cait sith would do the partial turn if she was looking side to side.

Cait Sith BC is a joke, just trioed it as SCH BRD and RDM 65. Just kept Lilisette cured, didn't do Holy at all.

Edit: NVM.

So how long do you figure until they patch the BC fight so you'll actually have to do something to Cait Sith?

[Imitarate]

I managed 118, but damned if I could figure out where I'm missing 2 (if, indeed, I am).

Edit: All questions right, every single NPC in the zone talked to at least once, and...
Orcish Goldmask
8 Stacks of Gyshahl Greens
4 Stacks of Crossbow bolts (friend traded 8, reported same number)
Both trades, soup thing and gnole claw, all 3 correct blahblahblah.

If there's more to it, I give up.

[Yugl]

Has anyone confirmed it's 100 exactly for O Ingot? If so, it seems I could bypass that annoying salt one if I just do the Mini-game with the assault NPC character.

Probably never. If I recall, a Nin can just kite Khimaira in the Shantotto BC and let her do all the damage. Yeah it's slightly different than just curing her, but it more or less amounts to the same..

Quick note on the last BC -- helped a friend with it today and randomly decided to see if casting spells on Atomos would do anything (it didn't), but afterwards, we couldn't get the claim off Lilisette (we had just been curing her for like 50%+ at that point). It didn't matter in the end, but just thought I'd point that out -- we were concerned it wouldn't let us win if he was unclaimed in the end.

I can't believe how unpopular the missions are...they are so fucking awesome. Aside the lack of new areas to explore (really wish there was new area like CoP had) I don't really have any complain to do.


There is one thing that bug me about the story though

Spoiler: show

Why couldn't lilisette catch up on the "mother" part. It's painfully obvious no matter how you look at it...I just wish she would realize this on her own, instead of saving for a not so shocking plot twist later.

[Arthars]

wotg got some nice fight CS and story isnt bad at all so far

i personally like it

of course, lets not bring back CoP, that shit is nice but fuckkkkkkkkkkkk

at least a good end reward for the effort. ToAU's mission kinda lacking compared to CoP, and there goes our pos not very useful ring compared to COP ring

lets see where WoTG go from here

[Riki]

Campaign only stats ring with highly situational use at best outside campaign as final reward of course.

Story and cutscenes are great in WoTG so far. "Normal" quests are a bit lacking though. The Babban Ny Mheillea and Areuhat quests were really cool. I wish they would expand on that and give us more quests regarding the background of the freelancers. There is much more potential in that than in the low level crafting items quests they give us now.

They're just trying to keep it suspenseful and for it to be a shocker. Unfortunately, since it is so obvious, any shock value when they do reveal it is gone so they should have just had that moment occur in this update. Realistically, there's no reason she hasn't mentioned that Portia is her mother to us. I'm sure she knows or at least thinks Lilith is her sister or something.

Also, with so much development time going to the DLC these past two updates (what was it, 2 new quests this update, and only 1 the previous one?), I doubt we're gonna get many little backstory/side quests till after the last one is released.

did this with rdm/blm rdm/whm rdm/drk, we won but things got alittle silly at the end.

for the most part stuning isn't needed, but I would HIGHLY recommend it after the boss does his summon and drains all your stats (it's like -60 to all your stats) my cure IVs drop from doing 414 to 220 or something, and any nukes the boss lands on the NPC will do "massive damage" like 20-25% of the NPCs life from a single nuke and because of the stats down you won't be able to cure her up fast at all and she'll also take alot of damage from melee attacks at that time too (seems to get crit'd alot too with the stat drain)

Also we got hit with Holy 3 times through the fight I personal only got hit with one of them. I avoided the second one by standing at 28.1 distance, and the 3rd one was avoided at about 22.0 distance. I pretty much kept my distance and only moved into casting range to cast my stuns.

This fight can defiantly be duo'd by two healers if one can stun. just make sure both of you aren't in range of holy (if it gets lucky it can one-shot you for sure) so RR, make sure only one of you gets hit. Oh and also make sure to buff the NPC with haste/pro/shell

story related...

Spoiler: show

the ??? elvaan that talked to Ragelise in the final CS... gives me the gut feeling that Lilith is trying to get both the mother and father on her side, to prevent lilsette's birth and insure her own. meaning I think that ??? elvaan was one of the spitewardens in disguise

also... moly ingots have been coming more and more onto the AH as of late... there was 8 yesterday and 13 today even... I think some people are finding a way to get 120sigs for that one mission and it is giving moly ingots or people have been really luckly on quadav desynths or people love doing BV2 after updates (since jorm hasn't popped yet)

[Onorgul]

Stun is totally unnecessary. I didn't cast a blessed thing on Cait Sith when I solo'd this, just made sure that Protect and Shell and Haste were on Lilisette. I was concerned about hate issues (NPC enmity always seems to be a little weird and Cure-bombing wouldn't help), otherwise I'd have at least Slowed and Paralyzed Cait Sith.

Spoiler: show

my impression is that Lilisette and Lilith are one and the same, born from the same parent, but perhaps at different times (Lilith seems older), but were meant to be the same person, at least between the 2 split futures.

This actually makes her quite unique because she's the only character in the entire WotG story so far who has made an appearance from both peaceful and wartorn futures.
I guess she's special in that way, which is why she's one of the Champions of Dawn, along with our character.

Theres no reasoning for our character's chosen destiny, tho i suppose its in the nature of FFXI missions to make us become the main protagonist somehow...

LOL.. wouldn't it be interesting to see if Lilith is assisted by an evil alternate version of ourselves?
