Day 06 - Dungeon Hijinks

A little late on this one I apologize, this is retrospective post, but I did end up getting together a group and tackling the game's first dungeon after all. After a lot of pointless and unanswered spam in Pokari City, I finally managed to get a group together to try things out. Our setup was Dragoon, Conjurer, Ranger, Mystic, Mystic, Dragoon, Dragoon(me). By the time we were done I could take the trash enemies on by myself.

The bosses on the other hand, were a completely different story. They hit hard, they hit fast and they had a hell of a lot of health. For whatever reason, the first time we tried as a group we took the last boss first. We ended up loosing by a slim margin and one of our lower level Mystics left. He's the one that lost out though, we went back for three more runs and won every single fight after that.

As far as spoils go, I got some glowy new shoes, upgraded my accessories and finished a bunch of high EXP quests I had been sitting on for a while for that dungeon. After the group disbanded, I tackled the dungeon a few times trying to get some glowy body armor and other loot, but to no avail. I ground out a few more quests and then called it a night. Looking back, the dungeon itself was rather simple, being the first dungeon and all though I can't discern if this is indicative of the future, it may very well be intentionally simple to serve as a tutorial for greater challenges to come. Catch ya next time for some cave spelunking that I skipped over a few days back!

Until next time, Akakiba, signing out~
