The special mission is Inphyys final mission against the king of nights. To unlock this secret mission, you must beat the game with every single character then load up Inphyys file. Once that has been done, look under Ywa-Ue-Uar and there should be a mission called Another World.

Beating the King of Nights can be fairly difficult if you dont know what youre doing. First things first, if you cant beat it, keep killing yourself and eventually the difficulty will be lowered. If you look at the loading screen it should show Mission Name Level # (the # states the difficulty. Lower the number the easier it is). Now, what you should do is make sure Inphyy is level 9 because you need the Seraph Butterfly move. After youve become level 9, start the mission and zip through the middle using dash. Dont stop to fight the army of night or branch off and do other things. Theres no point as it would consume too much time. If you have time to spare might as well do it. Once youve reached the king of nights, you will see Goblins and Trolls fighting him with an insane amount of army of night soldiers surrounding him. This is definitely a good thing (because of red orbs). What you want to do is make sure that your orb gauge is full, then pull off Seraphs butterfly. You have to make sure hes standing on the ground and not flying because if hes flying than it wont work at ALL. It could take anywhere from 3-7 hits to finish him off. If youre lucky youll find the armband that allows for no orb consumption while using deadly attacks. Also, make sure if you see those silver balls flying at you, Dash and dont stop because they hurt you real bad. Keep Seraph Butterflying while the king of nights is on the ground and you should finish in no time. Its not a difficult task at all once you get the hang of seraphs butterfly. You can also use your orb spark and itll do a very nice amount of damage to him.

At the main Ice gate's ... well gate (last area) hug the fortress wall and go east until you hit the mountains. Now follow the mountains north past 2 sets of 2 large pillars. A very little bit further (still hugging the mountains) you should find this elusive lamp post in a small almost hidden alcove. Destroy it with Orb spark (blue gauge) it should be in the base of the ruined Post.

Khukuri: Attack and range +20%, critical rate +10% - Chest in Bastide of Varrgand. Dead end West of Temple.

L4: Black Scimitar: Attack +40% range +30% - Chest in Ice gate. N/E of gate 5.

L6: Hell's Dagger: Attack & guard break +50%, Critical +100% - Chest in Pholya Flatlands. Going south from the center of the map it's near some pillars. Or conversely, going north from where you rescue Dwykfarrio it's near some pillars.

This achievement is extremely deceiving. Most people assume that all you have to do is get every character to level 9 and youll get the achievement. Thats not true. What you really have to do is get every character to level 9 than re-beat the entire game (redo every single mission) with all 7 characters at level 9. I know its dumb but thats how it works. Some people think its a glitch but it isnt.

Where to level for each character:

Inphyy: Fort Wyandeek (explore all areas branching off)

Aspharr: Fort Wyandeek (explore all areas branching off)

Myifee: Pholya Flatlands (when you have to stop the goblins going across the bridge which is the area with the block rate, dont let the block rate hit 100.. just keep waiting and waiting until you get bored than finish it off)

Dwingvatt: Bastide of Varrgandd (make sure to kill as many guys as you can)

Tyurru: Pholya Flatlands

Klarrann: Pholya Flatlands (not a lot of kills but the orbs received are A LOT and it will save a lot of time instead of Fort Wyandeek)

Vigk Vagk: Pholya Flatlands (there is 4 bosses in this and you gain a lot of experience off them. Dont use Bastide of Varrgandd even though you receive more orbs, your experience doesnt add because the bosses drop 3 bonuses XP tombs and you get 12 in total. If you want to save time do Pholya Flatlands).

Hint - Deus Ex Generalities
Some general hints for N3 players!

(1) The maximum level of a character is nine. More attacks are unlocked at higher levels, and more potent weapons (if acquired) may be equipped.

(2) Replaying a mission will slowly increase the potency of items (extrapolation from game manual).

(3) Items however, are partly randomized in chests and always randomized from dead enemies.

(4) Save slots track campaign progress and character development. Reserve one slot for each character!

(5) When you acquire a weapon or item, don't forget to equip it (Status Menu). Equipped items are organized by power level (Clover 2 will precede Life Globe 1 for example).

(6) Blocking is universal (and non-chipping). Block often against bosses or don't expect to survive.

(7) Orb Spark (blue) is very rare. If you have to forego an Orb Attack (red) to get more blue orbs or just to save up the Orb Spark for a boss or big conglomeration of enemies, do so.

(8) Troops are expendable. Use them or lose them.

(9) Allied officers are invulnerable. Use them to lure bosses while you attack .... from the back.

(10) Inphyy's final stage is impossible without some serious devotion. First, she needs her level 9 attack move. She also needs to achieve several S ranks across her stages -- this is because there's an item that lets Inphyy do red meter draining moves without draining the red meter. You will need that to defeat the ultimate enemy!
Hint - Curse Yourself And Be Stronger
Obtaining higher combos will unlock more powerful weapons. I was able to unlock the aegis charm 4 which raises your defense up by 80%. I was also about to obtain the Royal Flag (50% range attack & 20% Attack Power) and Royal Crown (Critical 50%).

The trick is to use those cursed items to weaken your character so you dont kill everyone in one hit. Each character has a level where you can rack up a huge combo. I got those items for Imphyy when I first reach a 9800 combo!
