Part 12

In the first battle, your objective is to defeat all foes. Be aware that targeting all units at once is forbidden by the law. The enemies include a Scholar (Narph) with Earth, Rime, and Thunder Tomes; a Paladin with Cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects); a Dragoon with Jump, Lancet, and Thunder Breath; a Ranger with Sten Needle, Love Potion, and Silence Gas; a Hume Hunter with Sonic Boom and Rend MP; and a Gria with Vitals Shot. Prioritize taking down the Ranger first due to traps, followed by the Gria or Hume Hunter for their ranged damage. Deal with the Dragoon when he gets close, and then the Scholar. The Paladin is the weakest and should be defeated last.

After the battle, head to Graszton and enter the Pub to learn more about the ongoing conflict.

Accept Mission D4-11, "Wanted: Sky Pirate Vaan," which requires you to apprehend Vaan and Penelo. The mission takes place in The Rupie Mountains and has a fee of 500 Gil. The law forbids not moving 1 tile, meaning each unit must move exactly 1 tile before ending its turn.

In Mission D4-11, your objective is to defeat all foes while defending Vaan and Penelo. The enemies include a Lanista with Souleater and Charge!, a Berserker with Hone Senses, Furore, and Smite of Rage, a Ranger with Mirror Items, Sten Needle, and Leech, a Gladiator with Rush and Thunder Assault, and a Bishop with Cure, Water, and Dispel. The Gladiator is a significant threat dealing over 200 damage.

Form a circle around Vaan and Penelo, keeping them healed and preventing enemies from reaching them. Long-ranged units like Fusiliers with Stopshot are crucial for making enemies retreat. Flintlocks and Cannoners with Cure Shells are also helpful. Focus on protecting Vaan and Penelo, as reviving units may not be possible if you break the law.

After Mission D4-11, follow Cid to Graszton.

Accept Mission D4-16, "A Request," which requires you to defeat a mark in the Ruins of Delgantua. The mission has a fee of 500 Gil.
