Completing Mysterious Map
Solving a Mysterious Map is similar to solving a Treasure Hunt map. Before uncovering the treasure chest, the player will need to use Decipher and Dig then defeat a group of enemies.
- Players can complete the map with the help of a party but only the owner of the map will receive the Alexandrite. Rest of the party members will get some gil.
- Chocobo Companion can be used to make the battle easier.
- The battle is trivial for players significantly above level 50.
