It is recommended to have {{Skill|Attack|99|nolink=true}} / {{Skill|Strength|99|nolink=true}} / {{Skill|Defence|99|nolink=true}} melee stats at this point, but base 90s are fine. As CO accounts have limited sources of damage reduction and bonus HP, {{Skill|Hitpoints|99|nolink=true}} is a requirement for most of the game beyond this point. You will need {{Skill|Ranged|85}} for {{ItemIcon|Aeris God Platebody|Aeris Armour|nolink=true}} Aeris armour and {{Skill|Magic|85}} for {{ItemIcon|Glacia God Platebody|Glacia Armour|nolink=true}} Glacia armour during this section. This section will assume both {{PetIcon|Finn, the Cat}} and {{PetIcon|Leonardo}} for +10 HP and +1% DR respectively. | It is recommended to have {{Skill|Attack|99|nolink=true}} / {{Skill|Strength|99|nolink=true}} / {{Skill|Defence|99|nolink=true}} melee stats at this point, but base 90s are fine.

with a good dps weapon in {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} (around 2.7 effective kills/hr: 7.4 kills/hr and 2.6 hours farming {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}} and {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}}). {{ItemIcon|Cloudburst Staff}} is unfortunately not very useful, as the effective kills/hr are lower than even that of lowly {{Icon|type=spell|Wind Blast}} due to the intense rune consumption. Ancient magics is the same story: not worth the rune costs. | with a good dps weapon in {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} (around 2.7 effective kills/hr: 7.4 kills/hr and 2.6 hours farming {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}} and {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}}). {{ItemIcon|Cloudburst Staff}} is unfortunately not very useful, as the effective kills/hr are lower than even that of lowly {{Icon|type=spell|Wind Blast}} due to the intense rune consumption.

The second thing to note is that this dungeon is one of the first places where HC/Adv and standard characters deviate in their path. This typically only happens at points where {{Skill|Magic}} is the primary style needed within a dungeon, and {{ZoneIcon|Earth God Dungeon}} and {{ZoneIcon|Infernal Stronghold}} are the first instances where this happens. Standard characters, with their lower combat triangle penalties, can idle this dungeon with melee. A {{ItemIcon|Tidal Edge}} is the most efficient item, but {{ItemIcon|Darksteel Dagger}} is also viable. | The second thing to note is that this dungeon is one of the first places where HC/Adv and standard characters deviate in their path.

As for the actual mechanics of the dungeon, {{MonsterIcon|Terran}} pretty much can only be tackled with {{Skill|Magic}} as he has a very tight window for gearing and Damage Reduction. Specifically, your attack speed needs to be faster than 3 seconds and you need 47% DR. In a worst case scenario, {{MonsterIcon|Terran|nolink=true}} will increase your attack interval by 33% for 2 turns then stun you for 1 turn. If he hits you while you're stunned, you'll take an additional 30% damage, drastically increasing your necessary DR to safely idle. | As for the actual mechanics of the dungeon, {{MonsterIcon|Terran}} pretty much can only be tackled with {{Skill|Magic}} as he has a very tight window for gearing and Damage Reduction.
