I just want to finish this before 2.0 and be done with it but it seems impossible.
    Guivres and other drakes are sound aggro (efts too), so you can just walk right past them. Don't run. Don't go by chocobo. Don't take out your weapon. Just walk and they will completely ignore you.

    Anoles and raptors are sight aggro, you need a little patience for them to turn and look away before running past on chocobo. But even if they come after you, you should be able to outrun them.

    Diremites and hogs are a bit of a pain, but they are slow so you can usually just run past.

    A friend and I got to all of the locations with just the 2 of us. Didn't have to fight our way through anything.

    It took a little bit of time, but it is quite doable even without a large party or people sacrificing themselves for you to pass.

    Good luck with the quest.

    Thanks for the tips! I got close once and then ran into the level 73-74 Morbol's just south of the spot while fleeing from another group of enemies. They killed me in one hit... I don't mind spend hours running around exploring the far reaches of Eorzea to complete this quest, I just don't understand why they had to make it so extremely painful to reach this one.

    Ah, the Morbols. My friend was playing as Paladin and used Hallowed Ground before running through. Once you reach the crystal you are safe since the Morbols return to their territory.
