The new party quest is okay, I guess. You can solo it.
The first stage is pretty easy, go up the vines to the upper left and you should see two bushes. Using your harvest key, harvest those and put them in the highlighted section, keep doing it until the vine "grows" and reaches to the tippy top of the map. Then, climb that and you should enter the next stage.
Using the chain skill (SPACE key) that you were given, throw yourself up to the middle platform, fight some monsters but avoid that big red giant scary weapon ball, it will stun you. There are about 8 stages here, all this really does it prepare you for the boss battle. You could just throw yourself to the top platforms and wait for the stages to pass by (you don't need to fight any monsters).
For the next stage, just keep using the chain skill to throw yourself up higher and higher. Eventually, you'll reach the top and you'll enter the boss map.
The boss is fairly easy, just go to the top platforms whenever you see the red big scary weapon ball (using the chain skill) and then come down once they're gone and kill Xerxes. I gained roughly 20% for each Xerxes kill at level 110.
The bonus/reward stage is easy, just drop down and use the chain skill to throw yourself back up (you will automatically loot those blue thingymajiggers). Once the time is up, you'll be transported to a map with an NPC, talk to the NPC and then tada you're done.
EDIT: Here's the video~ The party quest is actually pretty quick, you can finish it in under 6 minutes and that's a decent amount of EXP for 6 darn minutes.
