In-Game Text

Description

Take the Assault Warp portal out to Nyzul Isle Assault Point, and just ahead, you will find a targetable blank spot at a pole sticking out of the ground.  Click on it, and you will get an box asking if you want to proceed with the mission or not.  If you select 'yes', you will be blocked from being able to go back to Naja's until you finish the mission. You will get a CS once you click yes.

When you are through with the cutscene, go to Runic Seal in the back of the staging area, and be ready for a BC.

Path of Darkness is the BC's title. Buffs will wipe when you go inside. There is a 30 min time limit.

Inside, you will get Naja to help you. If she dies at any point in the BC, you lose. You can buff her and cure her, however.

If you lose the fight, you will have to go back to Rodin-Comidin in Whitegate to get a new key item.

Once you are ready, head into the room and engage Amnaf.

Four gears pop at engagement of Amnaf.

What my party did was have the PLD pull Amnaf, then when the gears popped, slept them all with BRD Horde Lullaby. BLM Sleepga doesn't work, but BRD's Horde and single Lullaby does.

Kill the gears first, then go for the boss. He is a BLU and uses BLU moves, but is easy to damage.

At ~50%, he will warp away to another room. He will then turn white, but won't regen. You can walk up to the next room and rest up before you engage him again. If you had applied any dots to the NM before he ran away, the dots will stick long enough to take him down to a maximum of 27%, but nothing below that.

When you engage him again, he will pop more gears again. Four, just like last time.

Repeat like before, sleeping/killing gears.

When the gears are dead and the NM is at 10%, he will warp away to yet another room, and become a Soulflayer. Chase him down, and rest like before.

When ready, pop poison and engage. He is like a normal Flayer, with Sleep, Curse and Bio.

Once he is dead, you have won the BC and you get another cutscene.
