Windurst 2-3: The Three Kingdoms
When you ask the gate guard for this mission, he will send you to the Heavens Tower to inquire in depth about your task.
You have to speak with Kupipi of the Windurst Consulates at the Second Floor of the tower (use the blue warp behind the little taru to get there). Once you are finished speaking with Kupipi, head to either Bastok or San d'Oria.
If you go to Bastok First.....
Go to the Windurst Consulate in Bastok Metalworks, and Patt-Pott will ask you to talk to Pius at the President's Office. Pius isn't actually in the office (you can't get past the Iron-Galka) instead he is off to the side, (K-8). He will instruct you to speak with Grohm, who is below you in Craftmen's Eatery. He will talk, and your task is to go mining in the Palborough Mines.
Head to the Palborough Mines (North Gustaburg, K-3). Then go to (I-8) and use the elevator to reach the 2nd floor. Head to (K-9) and find a spot for digging. Now trade the pickaxe to that spot, which may take several tries in order to be successful. Once you get the mythril gravel, head over to the 2nd level in the middle of the map (I-6) by going around side of map. Now take the gravel that you got and trade it to the machine with a lid and a lever, and then pull the lever. Now, continue down the path to the left side of map and back to the area under the machine. Find the lever on that machine and pull it to receive the fully refined mythril sand, then after that take that item back to Patt-Pott and trade it to him.
Now go to San d'Oria.
Speak with Kasaroro in the Consulate of Windurst (North San d'Oria, H-9). She wants you to speak with Halver who can be found in the Chateau d'Oraguille. You are to investigate Yughott Grotto and report bak to Kasaroro what you find. And the information must be worthy!
Travel to J-8 of Fort Ghelsba and then to J-6 of the Yughott Grotto. Through the zone you will see a Burning Circle*. Defeat the dragon and return to the Consulate to report all you have seen to Kasaroro.Then you are free to return to Windurst and complete Rank 2!
If you go to San d'Oria First.....
Speak with Kasaroro in the Consulate of Windurst (North San d'Oria, H-9). She will send you to speak with Halver, who can be found in the Chateau d'Oraguille. He asks you to defeat the Warchief Vatgit at the Ghelsba Outpost (H-7). Once you have done that, report back to Kasaroro at the Consulate and she will thank you for your success and sends you off to Bastok.
Go to the Windurst Consulate in Bastok Metalworks, and Patt-Pott will ask you to talk to Pius at the President's Office. Pius isn't actually in the office (you can't get past the Iron-Galka) instead he is off to the side, (K-8). He will instruct you to speak with Grohm, who is below you in Craftmen's Eatery. He talks about the Quadav, and how Bastok will not allow the enemies to become an organized force.
Head to the Palborough Mines (North Gustaburg, K-3). Once inside, go to the third floor and step into the magic circle located at (H-10). You will disappear, but reappear before the Burning Circle**. Defeat the dark dragon and return to the Consulate to report all you have seen, and then you are free to go back to Windurst to complete Rank 2!
* - Level 25 cap. Recommended Party: Black Mage, White Mage, Warrior or Paladin (with Provoke), and the rest be good Damage Dealers. The easiest way to defeat this Dread Dragon is for the Black Mage to cast Sleep and Bind on the dragon, while the damage dealers fight off the Floating Eye first. Once the Eye is dead, start attacking the Dragon. This fight should take no longer than 3-4 minutes.
** - Same stragey recommended as above.
