Talk to Milha to initiate the hunt and go into the sewers and Wraith will appear in the first area. You can fight him alone but you’re better off getting the rest of your members to join you. After Escaping Garamsythe and Barheim Passage Wraith – Dantro gives you 10 Potions and 500 Gil for the hunt and you can bring the cactoid flower to Dantro’s wife, an entirely different side quest. He can use the 1000 Needles skill near death which will be an instant kill if it hits one of your characters. Magic works well on him but you can just regular attack also, just stay with him as he runs through other enemies. Sign up with Dantro in the Estersand camp and you’ll have to go to the Yardang Labyrinth to find the Flowering Cactoid. With Penelo or a bigger group it should be no problem. This hunt is unlocked right after Thextera but is probably too difficult to complete with one character. Return to Gatsly for Teleport Stone, a Headguard and 500 Gil. Stay rested after Fangs and continue to attack the wolves as they appear. By himself Thextera is fast yet pretty easy at first but towards the end he’ll use Fangs and will cry for help from other wolves. Instead try to bait some of the wolves into chasing you to clear out Thextera’s ranks. Don’t charge all of them or you’ll be obliterated unless you have support. Thextera has many other smaller wolves surrounding him and this is a good example of an early battle that will prep you for later hunts. Go to the southeast part of the Westersand in the Galtea Downs section. Gatsly is the petitioner and he is nearby, so talk to him and save by the Westersand exit. Thextera is a wolf life creature in the Dalmasca Westersand. You’ll receive Galbana Lilies after the fight and returning to Tomaj to get your 300 Gil, 2 Potions and Teleport Stone. You may need to use a restorative item like Potion but your sheer ability should be able to overcome this foe. Anyway Rogue Tomato will have miniscule attacks but can occassionally use Flame Breath.
Save and go to the Estersand and you’ll see a large red dot in the initial screen.
Rogue Tomato is basically the tutorial hunt, as the petitioner Tomaj is right in the Sandsea. Note that I tend to do most of these hunts after a healthy amount of leveling up so if you have a low level quest a lot of these brute force type strategies may not be applicable for you.
You will be rewarded with money and items generally and some of the items can be extremely useful. Keep in mind that just because a hunt is available at any particular time doesn’t mean your party has a chance at defeating it. As you progress through the story and unlock new areas, new hunts will become available for you.Įach hunt has a rank, the higher meaning they are harder. You are generally to return to this character at the finish to collect your reward. After that you will meet a petitioner, the person who wants you to hunt a particular monster. You will sign up for hunts at bar’s (like Rabanastre’s Sandsea) or Montblanc at the Centurio Clan HQ. At the beginning of Final Fantasy 12 you can sign up at Clan Centurio to be a hunter.
