A guide to Rhapsody's of Vana'diel step by step.
Things you will require:
Pro Advice:
At some point you unlock access to a warp in Empy Paradox, allowing warp to Reisenjima from in there. If you can't get a teleport, i suggest trying this. (I assume it unlocks post step 6)
1)Zone to a starter City.(Cutscene)
2)Then go to Teleport Dem/Holla/Mea and talk to the Dimensional Telepoint and enter Reisenjimma.
3) Go to Reisenjima warp #6 (K-8). It's at the end of the very long path. I recommend sneak and invisible. Pick up all warps on the way, and be careful of true sight Hippos.
4)Talk to the Etched rock at K-8.
5) Kill 3 Naraka's which spawn at K-8, Exclusively at night. (On the stairs).
6) Retalk to the rock.
7)Warp. Go to Western Adoulin and enter Ceizak Battlegrounds for another cutscene.
8)Go to Eastern Adoulin castle gates and talk to Ploh.
9) Go to Rala Waterways skirmish Entrance and talk to the blue ???.
10) In Rala go to C-6. (The secret hideout from early Adoulin missions) And obtain a KI from a Barrel.
11)Go back again to that ??? at the Rala Skirmish Entrance.
12) Go to the Library in eastern Adoulin.
13) Go to the Hall of the gods.
14)Talk to the gate in the Hall of the Gods.
15) Go back to Reisenjimma and enter the Sanctrum. (Etched rock)
16)Go to Grauberg (s) and enter Walk of Echoes. (If stuck, or incomplete WoTG. Look bellow for ways to get around this)
17)After the cutscene go right and on the stairs there's a glow thing. Accept it's warp.
18) Talk to the Battlefield entrance in your new zone post cut scene.
19) Talk again and enter a Battlefield with Shinryu... (Or is it...?)
Do Not Leave the Zone here.
20) Post Battle retalk to the Battlefield entrance.
21)Go back to Reisenjimma and talked to the Etched rock again. and enter Sanctrum for another cutscene
22) In Reisen, go to H-5 and talk to a ???.
23) Kill 11 Panpots in Reisen. (Between #1 -> #2)
24)Enter the Sanctrum and talk to the crystal inside this area for a cutscene.
25)After this cutscene you will be left in Empy Paradox. Run straight to the battlefield entrance for another cutscene.
26) Enter the Battlefield and win! (ofc)
27)After this cutscene you will be left in Reisenjimma.
28) Go to a Home nation for another cutscene.
29) Return to Reisen sanctrum and get another cutscene.
30) Go to the Stone circle in La Theine Plateau at G-6.
31)Return to Reisen sanctrum for a cutscene.
32)Enter the battlefield when you feel prepaired. Make sure your Inventory is clean.
33) Enjoy your fight and amazing Battlefield, you cannot loose here. (Be Prepared for a tough fight, apparently my ease was blind luck =-=)
34) Congratulations your Feels begin. You just beat Final Fantasy XI. A 100% Beatable MMO.

I'm sorry if i may of neglected some steps. I used my own live stream footage to help myself write this.
Note: You can avoid the 100% clear rate for this! But i seriously suggest that you go in this with missions complete. It makes much more sense that way as a storyline, rather than just quests that way.
At 16) if stuck go for:
Step 16) you can just go to Pashhow Marshlands (S) Conflux and zone into WoE, it works too. If not, also try Gaining Entry to the Walk of Echoes through Xarcabard (S) Entranceat (H-9). Afterwards you can raise a light worm at a ??? at the jeuno area Cavernous maws.
If you have not finished Wings of the Goddess, you can also after this cutscene then travel to one of the Cavernous maws outside Jeuno, and use the blue sparkling ??? outside them to warp to WoE with the entrance required for this battlefield after.
