Oakwood

Anyone got any tips on getting to Oakwood?

There are two narrow passages to get there. Each passage contains 3 level 80+ Eyes. Walking behind them is seemingly impossible since they're usually facing along the passage in one direction or the other.

Any ideas?

Took me many tries and a lot of patience, but it can be done. Luck is always a factor. Also, if you could find 1 person to just aggro them and run away, you could slip through.

Sounds like chances are that'll be one very dead person unless Distract succeeds.

yeah forgot to mention, the helper won't be alive for a seconds after xD

Don't forget Hallowed Ground (if you have it).

You can chocobo right through them.

Aegis Boon, Hallowed Ground, Decoy, Dread Spike, Elusive Jump (position yourself so you jump over their LoS, it actually works), or just be patient. Chocoing past them would work except that there are Salamanders waiting just outside the cave and unfortunately the eyes won't leash until you're past them.

run behind eyes, walk past everything else. Hallowed Grown/Sentinel/Rampart

Is it cheating to have someone raise you on the other side of the eyes? The rest of the way is sound aggro.
