	* Valley of Carnage C is actually a lot faster, since it can be cleared in 2-3 minutes with a full party. The best way is to have 5 people run it while one other solos. The five finish and all check for FoI, meanwhile the solo guy gets to the last room and waits. Then, if none of the 5 had FoI, they join the solo party, finish, and then all 6 check for FoI. Later, rinse, repeat. --[[User:Qwerty\|Qwerty]] 13:50, 12 February 2008 (CST)		* Valley of Carnage C is actually a lot faster, since it can be cleared in 2-3 minutes with a full party.

	** You can actually do a "20 chances" approach. Everyone solos, and an order is set. Everyone gets to the last mob, and the first person in the order finishes, abandons, and checks for the forest (1 chance). If they don't get it, they join the 2nd person in the order. 2nd person finishes mission, and those 2 both check for the forest (1 + 2 chances = 3). If they don't have it, they join the 3rd person's mission..and I think you get the pattern. 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 = 21 chances to find FoI in only a few minutes. Complicated, but really effective. :)<br/>--[[User:Kietrinia\|Kit]] 16:12, 12 February 2008 (CST)		** You can actually do a "20 chances" approach. Everyone solos, and an order is set.

Also, when I can get around to it, I'll be making a specific article for rare free missions (so the link in the infobox isn't a dead end), as I feel certain that we'll see more down the road, likely at least one per planet and maybe one for the colony/HIVE/Ryucross. - [[User:EspioKaos\|EspioKaos]] 13:54, 8 February 2008 (CST)		** Yeah, we can expand on that in the little description thinger we have now.

		+	==Fast Way To Find FOI==
		+	The fastest way to find FOI is to go to Moatoob talk to one of the ladies, and go to West Kugu: Ajis Kugu which is the Oasis.
		+
		+	Once you are there, the only mission that should be in that lobby is, Stolen Weapon. Just do C runs. No need to do GBR to find the Forrest.
		+
		+	Once you run it and say "LEAVE PARTY." Do not go to CRYSTAL! You will be back at the Oasis, just DIS-BAND, and run back into the door.
		+
		+	Also, having 6 players in your party increases your luck of finding it. On the PS2 server, we found it 4 times over the weekend. There are at least 15 others who can back this up. JETSTREAM, Ace2.0(or something), Nasta, [Red Rose](something), bud, jojo, Karl Kahn, H(something), sh3rb3rt, and more that I don't recall the names (sorry ya'll, crazy names are hard to remember :-) )
