Golmore Jungle
Before leaving the village, make sure to speak with the Moogle again and purchase as many Golden Amulets as is necessary to equip them on your entire party (even your reserves).
With the tear in hand, the barriers that blocked your path previously in the jungle are now no longer a nuisance. Return to the jungle and take the east exit near the entrance to Eruyt Village to reach the Whisperleaf Way. Follow this path and make sure to use the Save Crystal.

BOSS: Elder Wyrm - HP: 71692 - LV: 27
If you thought the Tiamat was hard, the Elder Wyrm is going to have a field day with you. He certainly has no interest in fighting fair. We'll begin with the basics: start the battle by launching a Quickening chain. This serves two purposes: one to deal MASSIVE DAMAGE to the boss, and second to eliminate those two treants he starts off with. Buffing up your party prior to the battle is once again, a good idea. He has a regular assortment of physical attacks which aren't particularly powerful, there are two main attacks you need to watch out for: The first is a fireball blast which seemingly comes out of nowhere. This is really only dangerous if the party member it hits is currently covered in Oil (which, given the boss' pattern of attacks, will likely be most of the time). You're looking at damage between one and two thousand that can easily wipe a single character at full HP. Be ready with Phoenix Downs. Speaking of being ready, you'll want at least two characters to "be ready" with the Gambit "Any ally: Esuna" given the boss' most dangerous attack: Sporefall. Similar to Bad Breath in previous games, this inflicts a variety of negative status effects on every member of your party. Esuna will wipe the slate clean, but you may have to be ready to use an Echo Herb on someone so that they can actually cast it. Nail the boss with your hardest physical attacks. It has a lot of life, and so this is going to take a lot of work, but if you keep these tips in mind then you'll at least have a fighting chance. |
Head back to the crystal and save your game again. Now, take a look at your map. You will see that there are two paths leading east and both end at the same location. Take the more northern of the two, the only difference s that it has a couple of chests.
In the Paramina Rift, stay on the main path as you make your way east. Ignore any branches leading further south. Eventually this road will take you northeast to Mt Bur-Omisace.
