Chamber of Oracles	Centurio V-III (PLD), Triarius V-VIII (BLM), and Princeps V-XI (RNG)	Centurio V-III: Uses Invincible Triarius V-VIII: Uses Manafont Princeps V-XI: Uses Eagle Eye Shot	Recommended fight order of Centurio V-III (PLD) → Triarius V-VIII (BLM) → Princeps V-XI (RNG). Open with a Sleepga, and then Silence the Paladin and the Black Mage. Defeat the Paladin first, as he can rebuff the others, as well as wake them up. Keep the BLM silenced, to render its Manafont useless. Finally, defeat the RNG, but be careful of Eagle Eye Shot.
