Walkthrough

• After completing the previous quest, the moogle will give you the option to warp to a BCNM.
• You are about to enter a 6-man Battlefield against Atori-Tutori. The fight is difficult and there is an optional sidequest that you can do for an enfeebling item, see below.
  • The Nomad Moogle will offer to warp you to one of several BC zones once you have given him the stone, which you pick does not matter.
• Warp to one of the zones with the rest of your party.
• Fight and defeat Atori-Tutori.
• If you are defeated, you may enter the fight again by paying 1 Merit Point or 5 High Kindred's Crests.
  • The Seasoning Stone has been available from the Repeat Login Campaign for a measly 10 points for quite a few months in a row. There is no sign that it will be removed.
• Warp back and talk to the Nomad Moogle to have your level limit increased, and to finish this quest.

Sidequest

• You can get an enfeebling item (Olde Rarab Tail) from Degenhard in Bastok Markets (I-10).
• Trade Degenhard a Seasoning Stone, Fossilized Fang, and Fossilized Bone for an Olde Rarab Tail.
  • These items have been available from the Repeat Login Campaign for a measly 10 points for quite a few months in a row. There is no sign that they will be removed.
  • These items also drop off level 90+ monsters in specific zones.
• This item will remove Atori-Tutori's damage taken cap and Terrorize him for 2 minutes.
• At least one is recommended for any party to counteract Hundred Fists, but it is possible to win without one if you have a sufficiently well-geared group.

Fight Strategy

• Atori-Tutori has a ~100-damage "limit" on the amount of damage he can take.
  • This limit is removed while Olde Rarab Tail is active.
• Strategy 1: Use 3 Low delay melee, capped magic Haste, Enspells, and Perfect Defense
  • Enspells do not count towards the damage limit, so they provide a very substantial damage bonus especially when used by low delay melee. They will overwrite Haste Samba, so don't count on it. You can get them through Inferno Howl (with a good skill build) or Accession from a Scholar or Red Mage subbing the other.
  • Buff the party with maxed magical Haste (some combination of Embrava, Haste, Marches, etc.)
  • Use Perfect Defense (after Inferno Howl if you're doing that)
  • Melee him.
  • This strategy does not require an Olde Rarab Tail.
• Strategy 2: Use a Paladin with Aegis or Ochain and a White Mage
  • With an incredible amount of durability and healing, it is possible to survive him.
  • Olde Rarab Tail is recommended but not required for Hundred Fists.
• Strategy 3: Ranged/magic damage and Olde Rarab Tails.
  • Get 6 Ranged/Magic DDs and 2 Olde Rarab Tails
  • Use one of the Olde Rarab Tails.
  • Damage him.
  • 60 seconds after the first, use the second Olde Rarab Tail.
  • Kill him.
  • With Chainspell or excellent mages, it is probably possible to kill him using this strategy and only one Olde Rarab Tail.
• Strategy 4: Pet Burn it
  • Get 6 pet jobs (BST preferred) and Dawn Mulsums/Pet Food Eta.
  • Put your pets on it and keep them alive.
  • An Olde Rarab Tail will really speed up the fight.
