Hell with that! Running is easy. Just follow the steps here -

Use {Quickstride} to get around the Efts and you're GTG.

i did this one not to long ago, it is just a game of patience. tbh if it was a straight run it'd be one of the easier quests. to complete. i just set my HP as CB and used the words f**k and Leeeeeeeroy a few tiems ^^, but overall i enjoyed it.

Kind of stupid that this is a R34 quest; what R34s can take hits from R70+ monsters? It's ridiculous.

I did this last night and died 4 times running through Black Shroud. It is pretty ridiculous that a rank 34 quest has you running through such dangerous territory.

Just so you folks know, people have been complaining for months that the storyline missions were not offered early and often enough. Here's one thread suggesting that they lower the ranks required for storyline missions back in April. I argued at the time that it would mean people would be below the appropriate level for the missions, which would make them much more difficult to complete, and I referred to this storyline quest in particular.

So this is the difficult thing that SE has to balance. There are going to be people arguing on both sides of every issue. Many people enjoy the challenge of running through high level areas and completing difficult quests. Many people are asking for more content like this challenging mission.

Be patient, keep in mind that everything is easier in a party, and remember that you don't have to complete the quest right away. It's much easier with a few more levels under your belt.

At least with this quest if you really can't get to Mor Dhona the Black Shroud way, there are other alternatives. Coerthas way is very long, but easier to avoid aggro monsters. I have no problem with difficult quests, I just think that this particular quest might be a bit much for people who play it at R34 (being the R34 story quest) and can't find the right route.

I suppose I'd prefer the challenging content to be stuff that isn't the main story (at least until the high level story missions), but R34 really isn't that high level in the scheme of things.

Another LS member was suggesting that it might be better to not link Story missions via level, maybe similar to another method like XI. That way, we can keep up with the story, and if we need to get stronger for the next mission, we'll still be free to do so.

Wait until you do the rank 46 quest. Futures Perfect is impossible to do now since lv9x mobs are everywhere around Revenant's Toll. I had to pay a bunch to have someone port me there, nobody was willing to help, what an utter disappointment.

I had no problem with the level 90 dragons... you just run where they're not (They were all sitting around on one side and my husband and I ran across the other) We didn't have to wait either for them to move out of our way.


If you're having a problem with the level 34 one... run with someone? I don't recall what level those birds on the Gridania path (we attempted Coerthas first and I couldn't get around the toads) were because my husband and I didn't bother doing it until we were 45 anyways, and they didn't really hit us for that much. But an extra person to grab a few that agro helps big time so you don't end up with 10 chasing you down.

Bumping because serious issue needs addressing.

Prior to 1.19 I found it easy enough to solo the level 34 main scenario quest "Forever Taken" with one character. Travelling to Mor Dhona via Coerthas was always fun!

However its now literally impossible to safely reach the eastern side of Mor Dhona since it appears they added several Evil Eyes for whatever reason in the tunnel starting from 15, 6. This is the tunnel near the Coerthas zone that connects that area with the eastern side. Unless I'm daft and there was some hidden route...but I don't remember there being any evil eyes in that area at all prior to 1.19.

Travelling from Brittlebark is also out, as is from Camp Crimson Bark in the Black Shroud. So unless I convince a party of level 50s to plow thru the Evil Eyes for me, I won't be able to do this anymore.

I tried going through the black shroud route using a chocobo but it's still quite impossible...esp when there are like raptors, drakes, and eft like mobs chilling all in th area looking in all directions. So im probably gonna try with a friend or go the coerthas route.
