Once you've passed the written part of the test, you're off for some combat. Enter the hallway again and enter the room across the hallway. This is where the Practical Examination Professor is, Hermes Tris. -
Speak to the professor and you'll enter a waiting room where you must wait your turn to take the fighting test. Enter the chat room to begin.
-
Your first enemies will be a group of aggressive Chonchons and Fabres . If you have Fire Wall, this test is a breeze. Fire Wall around yourself and you'll kill them. Even without Fire Wall, the enemies are so weak that you can Bolt them individually or even melee them if you need to. If you're going the melee route, bring potions. Keep in mind that you are timed for three minutes.
-
The next group of foes will be non-aggressive Lunatics . At first, it appears that there are only six, but they quickly multiply to about 30 or so. If you have Fire Wall, you can Fire Wall three of the six groups before they can split, effectively killing about 15 Lunatics. Once they begin to separate, you'll want to Fire Ball the remaining Lunatics. If there are any left, individually Bolt each Lunatic or stab/hit them with a Dagger/Rod. You'll have three minutes.
-
Your last test is fighting an aggressive Whisper . There will be five Whispers in total, but only attack the center one. You can Fire Wall it, or use a Frost Diver/Lightning Bolt combo. If you have a
Phen Card, you don't
have to worry about it breaking your cast time. Once you kill the
Whisper, the others disappear. -
When you return, talk to the Practical Examination Professor again.
At this point, the quest splits three ways:Personal Study
