Can I continue the drg quest at lvl29?

[durecellrabbit]

I've started the drg and following a drg quets guide I went to the Maze to get the dragon egg, I went to G-7 but could not find any place to use my pickaxe so I selected it and it targeted a ghoul. However went I went to mine the ghoul it attacked me and I died and deleveled down to 29.

Can I continue without having to lvl back to 30? Also what exactly am I suppost to mine?

You can continue, yes. You excavate a wyvern egg.

How did you not manage to find an excavation point before entering the area with Ghouls? In fact... there are maybe... MAYBE 3 total excavation points in the Maze of Shakrami that are within visual distance of a ghoul, and you can Sneak or Invisible past everything in there as WHM.

Usually you can find an Excavation Point somewhere in that first big room you enter with the skeletal remains.

I went into the big room with skeletons but I never found any excavation points. I thought I just had not targeted them so I selected my pickaxe and choose use and it targeted a ghoul. I thought the ghoul was some special quest based thing that I had the use my pickaxe on but it attacked when I tried that.

The ghoul is a monster that drops an item for one of the subjob quests. >_>a

I can't find these points in suppost to dig at. I've been looking in the circled area.

They are definitely in there. Just tab around until you find the Excavation Point target. Gobs are sight aggro, and undead and worms are sound. So bring some prism powder and silent oil if you're not a WHM. But it looks like you are, so just keep those cast on yourself!
