Jachol
Open your map and fly the Chocobo, stop at the continent right after the island chain. Then walk from there toward the west, passing a cave until you see a village at the end.
We are here mainly for shopping and unlocking the location.
- There is another piano inside the Pub (5/8).
- New weapons are available here, and most of them can't be found later.
Jachol Cave
This is the cave you just walked past earlier. Before entering the cave, change everyone's job to Geomancer. The reason is that there are 2 monsters in the cave:
- Nutkin: super weak with only 20 HP, always comes in 3.
- Skull Eater: looks like Nutkin but in gray color, it has only 1 HP but it is impossible to hit due to its high evasion, and it's super strong (it can certainly kill one ally in one hit). Ranger's ability Aim can hit it but deals 0 damage. So, it leaves us with 2 options: Ninja's Throw has 100% accuracy but costs your precious items. Another option is Geomancer's Gaia ability.
During the first battle, you can use the Gaia ability, then for the rest you can keep spamming auto-battle (auto-battle uses what was previously selected).
Note: This cave is also a very good spot for ABP grinding. 3 Nutkin give 2 ABP, and Skull Eater alone gives 5 ABP.
