Everyone was in such a hurry to get to Yhoater Jungle that we left at level 27. It was great doing the Yuhtunga mandys at that point and we were chaining pretty good, but when we switched to the gobs one gob REALLY beat us down. But that was only one gob, why so bad? Then we left to Yhoater with some delay cuz I don't have the map and thought I could figure it out since this was my third time heading out there... mistake. We get there and for the next 2 levels, no chains and full 200 exp after a LONG fight.
My advice, you probably need to be a level 28 party at least to go to Yhoater Jungle.
Kudos, to Cruniac and Naneke and Vidda(french) and Baraleil and Hirosuke (i think) for some great help leveling out in Yuhtunga for the WHOLE day. ^^
