Return of the Talekeeper 6-1

Details
A new Talekeeper is rumored to have appeared among the Galka. Speak to Medicine Eagle, the Mines District guard on post near the entrance to Ore Street, for further details.

Walkthrough
To start this quest, you must trade a stack of crystals to an IM and then talk to a gate guard. They will tell you to go to Bastok Mines and talk to Medicine Eagle, who can be found on the left at the top of the ramp down to Ore Street. You must then go talk to Drake Fang who is by the boat from Zeruhn Mines (H-6). You will see a cutscene where Iron Eater will approve your mission and tell you to go check out Altepa.

Suggested level/pt size: Around 10-12 level 60s can do this easily. If going with larger amounts of lower levels, make sure your tank is at least 60. The damage dealed is pretty nasty.

In the center of West Altepa, is Revelation Rock. Southwest of the west end of Revelation Rock is a ??? (G-8). Examine it, and two mobs will pop. The Western and Eastern Sphinx, Manticore mob. A party of 10-12 60s will handle this easily, but is recommended to bring 2 healers along.

Talk to Tall Mountain in Bastok Mines on Ore Street by the "Restricted Section" in order to complete this mission.

The Pirates' Cove 6-2

Details
You are being sent to Norg as an emissary of Bastok. Meet Sir Naji in front of the President's Office for a full briefing.

Walkthrough
Accept the Mission then talk to Naji for a cutscene. You are to proceed to Norg and speak with Gilgamesh. After the cutscene with Gilgamesh you will need an Adaman ore. I believe this can be mined in Ifrit's Cauldron, but you can also buy it. But you will only need 1 ore for every 6 people. Enter Ifrit's Cauldron through I-6 in Yhoator Jungle. Your destination is the ??? at H7. If you don't have a map, take the first left at the fork in the road, then a right at the next split in the path and just keep going. You will reach a spot where lava is flowing into a pool. Trade the Adaman Ore and 2 NM will appear, Salamander (lizard type) and Magma (bomb type). Of course take care of the Magma first before it explodes (although it seemed to be very very weak) and it will drop 6 rare/ex items. After getting the item for every person in your alliance, head back to norg. Talk to Gilgamesh for another cutscene (which features the best npc in the game) and head back to Naji to complete the mission.

Recommended party is atleast 2 level 60 parties, but the more the merrier.
note: You will not need silent oil or invis powder for this, the ??? is pretty close to the entrance and the bees around the area are non aggresive.
