Walkthrough

  • Examine the Reinforced Gateway at (F-9) in La Vaule (S) for a cutscene.
  • Examine the Reinforced Gateway a second time for a BCNM fight against Galarhigg.
    • All buffs will wear upon entering.
      • If you are using Trusts, summon them after entering.
  • After defeating the boss, another cutscene occurs and you automatically advance to the next mission.

Directions to Reinforced Gateway

  • Once inside La Vaule (S), enter the big room at (J-7) and proceed west until you reach (I-7).
  • From (I-7), go north then proceed west until you reach (G-7). From (G-7), head north. Once you reach (G-6), turn immediately left.
  • Make your way directly across the big room filled with orcs (they're around level 80) until you reach (E-6).
    • Be careful of Coinbiter Cjaknokk, who has true sight. The other orcs will link if he aggros you, so keep a wide berth and work your way around him if he's up.
  • Once you reach (E-6) follow the path north, then turn left and head west. Follow this path until (E-7) then take a turn to the left, heading east.
  • The path will turn you south, where you'll cross a bridge at (F-8). This will put you right at (F-9) where the Reinforced Gateway will be directly to your right.

Notes

  • Galarhigg is fairly easy to defeat with a PLD/NIN and RDM/WHM. The only difficulty occurred from Petro Eyes, which left the Paladin petrified for several minutes.
  • "Soloed" easily with Trusts as 75 RDM/BLM.
