How to start end-game?

[RinoaHeartilly]

Do Castrum Meridianum for Philosophy tomes so you can get darklight gear
I did Ifrit with AF gear my first time
Ifrit is easy if you know when to stun, you should be the only one stunning.
Try to farm him or Garuda to get one of their weapons, it's fine until you have a relic weapon (Garuda's weapon is better than Ifrit's but you have to beat Ifrit first to have access to Garuda)
AK is doable in AF depending on the rest of your party, but it's better if you have some darklight gear.
Wanderer's place is... meh but you can get some philosophy tomes from there too. It takes too long and is too boring for what it gives in my opinion lol

Good luck

Edit : Btw (in case you don't know) try to do AK to cap the 300 mythology tomes you can get each week. They reset on monday so try to get the 300 before that, each run gives 40.
