Okay, I give up. How exactly is anyone supposed to beat this unreasonably unfair quest? Let me list the problems I've been facing, so you have an idea of how frustrated I am so far.
1) It's nearly impossible to get backup for this mission-based quest. You have to have either beaten it already or be on the quest, meaning you can only side with other Windurst players. I'll leave it to your imagination how well quest shouts go in Jeuno unless you offer a significant reward.
2) Mihgo is worthless. She takes damage like crazy, has no survival instincts whatsoever, and incessantly finds the biggest group of mobs to run into. Every mob group she finds is always a good mile away from the Belfry.
3) The endless gigas' that spawn seem to home in on Mihgo, further reducing her already paltry HP and making it very difficult to keep her alive even with full time curing on WHM.
4) Crowd control is next to impossible. You can't use sleepga, breakga or any such spells with any degree of control (I abhor SE for giving us a weak version of Break instead of the NPC version which holds regardless damage taken, but I digress). There's no such thing as a "Provokega" so despite your finest efforts, there's no easy way to pull mobs off Mihgo's furry hide without dumping a humongous Blizzaja and awaiting the icy embrace of death as they come for you instead.
Basically, I've hit a brick wall with this quest. I can't progress beyond it because I can't find anyone either willing or ABLE to help me with it, thanks to the stupid entrance criteria, and I've come to the end of my tether trying to devise working strategies for it.
Has anyone successfully soloed this? If so, how did you go about it and what recommendations do you have?
