Walkthrough[edit]

Trial: Deal the finishing blow to a set number of experience-yielding monsters with the prescribed elemental attack.

Objective: 200 experience-yielding Sea Monk creatures.

Attack: Resist Vs. Dark-damage of 150 points or greater.

Equipment: Teiwaz must be equipped.

Location[edit]

Slow and steady way: Abyssea - Vunkerl, Conflux 03; Blizzard III (or nuke of choice to weaken the mob) and then Comet on the Jasconius in the area. Tedious, but it works.

Things that Work[edit]

As of the September 2010 Update, the person wielding the Teiwaz no longer has to be the one to deal the killing blow to receive credit. Proof

Spells: Any dark-based spell. These include, but are not limited to, Drain, Bio, Noctohelix.

  • Notes: A 0 HP recovered Drain works, as it still does damage to the mob. With Bio and Noctohelix , the damage that lands has to be the finishing blow. Allowing the mob to die from the DoT of the spell does not constitute as a successful kill.
  • As of the September 2011 update, Black Mages can learn Comet, which is single target Darkness damage, at level 94. Comet did about as much damage as a Blizzard V boosted by Atma of the Beyond, so it will be a valuable tool for completing this series of trials.
  • Blue Mage spells such as Everyone's Grudge and Eyes on Me are also capable of dealing sufficient damage, if you can get a Blue Mage to help you.

Weaponskills: Any Dark-based elemental Weaponskill.

  • Cataclysm is amazing for this family of trials, even at 100% tp it will do 600+ darkness dmg to all mobs in AoE but you need to be whm or /whm to use said WS.--Josiahkf 13:49, February 4, 2011 (UTC)
  • Note: Haven't seen Starburst or Sunburst proc as a successful kill, given that it deals Light or Dark elemental damage.***I did this trial in [Labyrinth of Onzozo] and I dont know if its a glitch with the trial, or the zone, but I was only getting credit for 2/3 of my kills. [Cataclysm] 600+ dmg or [Drain] for 250+ dmgwould fail to give me credit every third kill. --Dlshus

Blood Pacts: Any dark-based elemental blood pact. Nether Blast, Somnolence, Lunar Bay, Howling Moon, and Zantetsuken work. Pavor Nocturnus does not.
