has anyone confirmed that you retain the KI from killing any of the original, and getting the KI's, are they permanent for successive runs?
and follow up- can you then just enter on the job you want unlocked for +3 gear or do you need to kill the boss again to get the KI to enter E-H

Sortie Release - Info
You don't need to kill any bosses to enter higher tier sortie.
Just need to do the gimmick at the transporter (ie naked at A, walk to B, rematerialize mobs at C, D unknown) and you can stroll around.
Went up on a goofy job unlock last night just to wander. Went to F (is that what we're calling it? Connects through B) and found a single unicorn wandering around, forget the name.. i assume thats the random NM for that section.
Couldn't fight it....couldn't even kill a pixie with the goofy job I was on...

I feel like "obtain aurum coffer" might be a possibility, would appreciate confirm/deny if someone tries it.
Aurum chest is not the answer. We did that for our run prior to doing anything in the new areas and it did not work.
Last night we think we found out how to spawn the 6 Mini Naakuals in F. We killed them and got the red coffer #F in the center of the split room.
First we kill Fetid Ixion in the zone not sure if you need to do this step or not. We had everyone stay in the split room on the west side and had 1 person run the exit Bitzer that take you back to B main zone. Then at person will enter F area again the 6 Mini Naakuals will spawn it he split room. We killed them all in a random order and got the red coffer.
I think enter into any of the other new zone's after leaving F will spawn them. We had one person get lost in F and some people exit F to go to G. When they entered G the one person is F said they saw the Naakuals.

I warped to A last night took gear off got the sheet.
Went into E?
I fought 2 pudding and slipped by the rest in the room the Sox nakuuls we're already spawned but the door to get to botulus was closed.
Killed a couple of the slimes and the nakuuls could not get the door open stared at the botulus through the hole.
Anyone know why the door wasn't open?

Okay. I was really hoping that would be it. I tried checking with SP effective active (Bolster, then Bolster and Widened Compass), those were no good either.
The other three were more conditional, things that you have done, than actions, things you do, so... I don't know, maybe it'll be something like "opened every Locked Gate #D", or "defeated Degei"; I'd give those better odds than "drop an item" or "use an emote."
Has anyone actually gotten a Ra'Kaz. Starstone from new area? Either chest or from NM?

They've absolutely done something to the objectives in A, and not for the better.
It took clearing all the Acuex on the way to Ghajot, the Leeches in the large room before Ghajot and the 'Gully' below the large room to just get Shard A. This was with changing target between casts.

I told my group last night that something changed. I used to be able to solo 6 Acuex on BLU and get 3 chests on the kills. Last night, I only got 2 chest, for the shard and for x5 kills. The very next set of 3 Acuex I got nothing. It took me a total of 10 Acuex to finally get the metal.
I'm thinking they increased the criteria for Metal from 6 to 9 magic kills. I was single targeting each Acuex with an AOE spell, so I know I was doing it properly. Have done it this way every time since before update, only thing changed was Sortie. So either spaghetti code or they intentionally changed A objectives.

We had same wierd issues with getting A on BLU aswell. Normally always get the chests just from aeoing 6x. We tried doing 1 at a time instead next run with blu geo and sch nuking it. Got the chest that way instead without issues just on 3rd and 6th mob. (Blue from 5th). Do feel like something changed for sure.
For A Shard/Metal my JP group have been doing SCH MBs and getting them in 3 and 6 kills.
Edit: Melee and magic(Not AoE) cast on mob as also gotten us chest
Quote:
Changed by 10/11 update
A Shard and Metal
Killing one by one with MB (magic?), 3 + 3 enemy

Went directly to E.
Killed botulus (was in 2-room chamber) No chest
Nakul poped after sometime we didnt kill anything, might be timed? We just ran around looking for exit
Killed Nakul, Red Coffer
Found Exit at the 4-room 'circle', Killed all mobs in all 4 rooms, Blue Chest.
Killed Southern Flan Room fully, nothing.
Killed Slimes room (half where the botulus was in) nothing.
Tried boss, wiped us again we tried different weapon types but that doesnt work. He took Full dmg every 10s or so. Maybe you need the brown chest item to weaken that since i read that poeple are self SC killing him. Which was not possible in our case.

Yes I got one today in Zone E from a blue chest by killing all the mobs in the area.

We got 2 starstones in E, one from boss, one from one of the blue chests. Blitzer was in the flan room so both popped at the same time.
Okay thanks, had not seen any myself or someone actually say that got one so was wondering if only the mega boss dropped them or something.

Still trying to crack the code on Bitzer D, tonight we were able to confirm that it is not unlocked by clearing 7/7 hall D objectives, nor by visiting hall E (probably eliminates visiting any basement hall as an unlock, but G might do it.)
I feel like "obtain aurum coffer" might be a possibility, would appreciate confirm/deny if someone tries it.

Receive the Aurum is not a condition for the D Bitzer. Our first run, we cleared as we normally would, thinking we'd need to kill the old NMs to get to the new area. We got the Arumn coffer but did not get the #D sheet.

Once the baby Naakuals pop, that door closes and remains closed until you kill them.

Just tested opening a Locked Gate #D; all but one Locked Gate #D; every Locked Gate #D; and every Locked Gate #D plus Gates #D1 and #D2. Bitzer #D did not respond. Also, coming in with a swarm of Demisang mobs on my tail didn't do it, but I'd really have to hope that wasn't it anyway.
This one's going to be something really weird, isn't it.
Anyone tried killing all mini NMs at the D blitzer?
tried to replicate getting blue box off bitzer F w LS. No go. I didnt kill anything when I got it w alts. We'd killed the horse before we got to it today. so idk maybe will try without killing tomorrow or if i do alt run tonight will try it again
Replicated blue chest in E with the flan kills. Went to SW room and killed all the flans then the botulus which was there. Then killed the 3 in the starting room and it popped on the last one.
In zone F, we got a blue box from killing all the Pixie mobs.

I was in Zone F for just a short time today and timed out with the second pixie in that opening room at like 10% health. Is it just those two pixies that you need to kill for the blue chest or are there more throughout zone F that need killed for the blue box? Thanks for the info!
We killed all the Pixies in the back, then went for the two at the start.

Can confirm on F having 1 person leave and re-entering will spawn the WKR mobs. Gave Red Coffer

Sounds like maybe there's just a chance for them to appear whenever anyone enters a given wing of the basement?
In my first foray into hall E, I didn't see those guys at all. My second visit, I got to the divided room and there were the six mobs. Plus the door was closed, and there were another six of them on the other side of the divider gate. Only notable difference between the two trips was that I got aggroed by flans the first time (btw, those are truesight, truesound, or both.)
Killed Dhartok using Gravity2 kite, and tactician rolls, cheesy but whatever. Gave 10k muffins and grants title: Dhartok Defiler
got 2 case+1 that run, 1 from boss, 1 from blue chest

I hope the new zones only drop old case +1. Sounds like it from what you said
