U S I N G T H E G U I D E.....................A01 =============================================================================== I have arranged things to make searching for one particular thing easier, I hope! If you want some general advice on the game, read the Game Basics section. If you want to know what recipes you can find or alchemy levels you can reach in each chapter, that is in the walkthrough section of the chapters. If you want details of how to complete a quest, that is in the RAIDER RANK quest section of each chapter, and the Mission is found at the end of every chapter. Finally, all details for Field Bonuses, where to go when, and what you can find in the Alterworlds are found in the Alterworlds section. o The Game Basics This section gives an overview of the mechanics of the gameplay, how to use alchemy, and a detailed overview of Questing. o The Walkthrough This takes you through each chapter of the game, following the events and quests as they unfold, as well as the recipes you can find, and the things you can craft. There are no spoilers for the story. You will find the quests organised by Raider Rank, but sometimes they don't appear in the chapter corresponding to that rank, partly because many are repeats and partly because it depends on the order in which you complete the quest point quests. If you know the Raider Rank then you know which chapter to check. Quests are also subdivided into the three types: Normal - for Quest Points, Combat, and Fetch Quests, and they are arranged alphabetically. Raider Rank 03 - Chapter One Raider Rank 04 - Chapter Two Raider Rank 05 - Chapter Three Raider Rank 06 - Chapter Four Raider Rank 07 - Chapter Five Raider Rank 08 - Chapter Six Raider Rank 09 - Chapter Seven Raider Rank 10 - Chapter Eight Raider Rank 11 - Chapter Nine Raider Rank 12 - Chapter Ten o Alterworlds - Locations This is a separate section devoted to all the Alterworlds and listing all the items, treasure chests and monsters that can be found, together with a walkthrough for each area. Since you visit these worlds many times, and different areas open up bit by bit, I decided to put everything in one section here. There are also rewards for completing "Field Bonuses" for each Alterworld, and the requirements and rewards are listed in this section. The walkthrough for Ishtar includes details of how to beat two optional bosses for the Siren and Luplus Blades. o Lists Here you will find the details of all recipes, items, equipment, quests and monsters, incluidng bosses. Most lists are in alphabetical order for ease of searching. =============================================================================== B. G A M E B A S I C S ..................*BASIC =============================================================================== =============== i. INTRODUCTION ........................................................... B01 =============== This is the third AI game to be released in the West and is labelled 0.8 in the Atelier Project. Mana Khemia is 0.9 and I co-wrote a walkthrough for that game, which inspired me to take another look at AI3. This game introduces the Active Card Battle Bar (ACBB) and Burst Chain system as well as the jobs/quests theme. However, there are only three characters, and everyone has left school. (Mana Khemia joke...) AI3 has perhaps had less attention than the other AI games, partly because there is no published guide, and this makes writing a FAQ slightly more challenging. It is hard to verify if everything has been found as there isn't a percentage total given for your collection. ================ ii.

THE CHAPTERS .......................................................... B04 ================= The game is neatly divided into 10 chapters and the end of one is reached when you raise your Raider Rank. What this means is that.you can continue to take quests or just fight in the Alterworlds for as long as you like, so long as you don't reach the target of quest points required to raise your level. Once this happens a MISSION event will begin and no more quests can be undertaken until the mission is completed, and this will end that chapter. ============== v. THE QUESTS ............................................................. B05 ============== There are 144 quests in total, and 65 of these reward you with quest points which are required to raise your Raider Rank. You take on quests (jobs) to improve your Rank or just for the rewards of cash (Cole), recipes and items. You don't have to do all quests to complete the game, but you DO have to take enough to increase your rank as this is the only way to progress to the next chapter of the story. After accepting a Quest, find the client, who will have a large sign above their heads saying "Quest", just in case you were in any doubt, and receive more detailed instructions. After completing the Quest you often have to report directly back to the client and sometimes to the Guild as well. You can check on the progress of any Quest you have accepted by looking at the details from the SELECT screen. Once you complete the Quest it will disappear from this list, and you can find it again in the Reference Book where all completed quests are recorded. The Guild All quests are posted on the board at the Guild, and you have to accept them here. Although there appear to be other Raiders, in fact no-one will take a quest off you, and in effect your team are the only ones taking quests. You can accept as many as you like at one time, and then complete them as and when you choose. Accepted quests will carry over to the next chapter if they have not been completed. The Mission When you complete sufficient quests with quest points then your Raider Rank rises, and a mission will begin during which the board cannot be viewed, and all other quests are on hold until the mission has been completed. After raising your rank the guard at the right of the board will give you additional items. Getting Quests to Appear At the start of the game there are only a restricted number of quests, but in later chapters the board can be nearly full of them! Some of these will be repeated, and require a lower rank than your current ranking. If the quest you want does not show, then you can either complete a few other quests and check back at the board, OR accept some less significant ones and then cancel them. This will remove them from the board and allow apace for new quests to appear. Quest Points and Not Yet! "Unable to Cancel" Quests are mandatory to get sufficient Quest Points in order to complete the chapter. Sometimes Quests will appear in one chapter but will have a sign saying NOT YET!, meaning that your current Raider Rank is not high enough to accept them. The only way to open up these jobs, is to earn enough Quest Points to raise your rank and trigger the mission which ends that chapter. Repeatable Quests Repeatable quests will have slightly different rewards each time, and the numbers of monsters you have to slay, or items you need to deliver, may be one or two more or less. You do not have to take these quests, and it is entirely up to you if you want to. These quests will have a time limit for completion and if you fail to complete one (for example, you kill 5/7 of the groups required), then you won't get the rewards and will have to start over if the quest appears again and you accept it again. Raider Ranks and Grades Raider Rank corresponds to the Chapter, and you will begin with a rank of 03 and end the game with a rank of 12. However, some quests require a higher grade and these will only appear after you have completed lower graded quests. The grades range from D to A and then S for the top graded quests. o NORMAL QUEST This is shown by a green boot icon, and all these quests reward you with Quest Points. Theoretically you could complete the game just by doing these quests. Once you accept one of these quests you cannot cancel it. There are some precious items and recipes that are only received when you complete quests so it is a good idea to accept all these ones if at all possible. o COMBAT QUEST This is shown by a red skull and crossbones icon. Some of these quests require you to defeat one specified boss enemy, but many involve defeating a set number of groups of enemies. If there is a purple icon next to the group then you must find and defeat purple coloured enemies. However if there is no helpful colour, then you will not know which blob contains the target enemies. Phenyl deals with all these quests and she will tell you where to find the groups listed as "any location". Some of these Quests are repeatable, and they will appear again in different chapters. You can cancel any of these quests if you want to free up space on the board for something better! o FETCH QUEST: This is shown by a blue basket icon. These quests will have a variety of clients and sometimes you have to speak to the client first to find out what they want you to do. Some of these Quests are repeatable and you can amass very useful items by repeating them. ============== vi. ALTERWORLDS .......................................................... B06 ============== There are five Alter-worlds in Atelier Iris 3 and these are all reached from portals around the main town of Zey Meruze. This is where you fight monsters. find treasure chests, gather various ingredients for alchemy, and undertake a range of Quests. There are no monsters or enemies in the town itself. Your time in these worlds is very restricted: literally by time! Time passes, as represented by a line of beads at the right of the screen, and when your time is up, you will see a mist and be transported out of the Alterworld, whether or not you are ready to leave. There is no way to prevent this from happening, but you can slow down the time in various ways, (or rather extend it) by finding Hourglasses (called Time Fragments) Defeat monsters with a FAST KILL and time will not pass by in combat. What this means is that it is better to fight than to run away, if you want to avoid getting thrown out of the Alterworld too quickly. Most Alterworlds have a garden where you can plant seeds, and a fishing spot where you can catch fish. They also have Field Bonus points which you receive when you complete a range of different challenges. These points are accumulative and rewards are given for set amounts of points obtained. The different coloured crystals that are found, often when cutting grass or smashing boxes, will help in racking up points for the Field Bonus. You do not have to complete all the tasks in order to achieve the 10000 points needed for all rewards. All items and enemies in the Alterworlds will regenerate after you leave and return, except for the contents of Treasure Chests. Enemies and bag contents will change slightly as the game progresses. =========== vii. ENEMIES ............................................................. B07 =========== Enemies are hidden from view inside various coloured blobs (it's really the only way to describe them), which wander around the Alterworlds. They are usually in groups of three, but it varies from one to five. Monsters: Blue ....... it is weaker than you White ...... it has the same strength as your party Red ........ it is stronger than you. Large Red ...it is much stronger than you. Purple ..... target enemies for a combat quest. Tall and Large Red .. Boss When you gain a few levels you will be able to "sword-slash" the blue enemies and you don't have to fight them to get a possible drop. Slash and they're history, though if you miss and touch them, there will be in battle. The other way of avoiding enemies is to jump over the small ones, or simply skirt around them, since on the whole they are not aggressive and will just move slowly. One word of caution though, if you start a battle and can't be bothered to complete it, you can usually run away, but this will use up time, and since your time is restricted it pays to fight rather than run. This is because, if you defeat the monsters fast (you will see the words: FAST KILL on screen after the battle) then time will not pass by in combat. Most enemies have a class (Beast, Dragon, Puni, Undead or Unholy), and some will have a particular strength or weakness. These traits, as they are called, can be viewed on the battle screen, and are listed in the Reference information. They also drop items and can be turned into sweets if you use a special attack skill. They usually appear in groups of three although you cannot tell which ones they might be until you start the battle. ============= viii. FIGHTING ........................................................... B08 ============= The gameplay is turn-based but with a slight "edge" to it. There is an Active Card Battle Bar (ACBB) consisting of 16 time cards and each character and enemy is represented by one card. The cards move along the bar, and when one gets to the far right, then it's that card's turn to act. There are also some Time Attacks, which will show up on the ACBB and can act even if the person or enemy is disabled in some way: for example, asleep or knocked out. A range of skills can be used as well as ordinary attacks, and these use up Skill Points. Different skills have different effects and they are listed with a number of different icons in the Reference section of the Menu. o SKILL ICONS Fist = Physical Skill. Wand = Magic Skill. Blue runner = Special Skills, including instant kill moves and fixed damage. Green AUTO = Automatic activation skills. Fire/Ice/Electricity = Element of the skill. Pink/purple skull and crossbones = Skills with Status Effects. Blue line = Skills that lower defense or power of enemies Red Cross = Skills that boost allies magic, defense, hits. Grey icon on an Element = Weakness. Shield on an Element/Fist/Wand = Resists. 2 Shields on an Element/Fist/Wand = Double resists. Sword on a monster type = weapon is strong against that enemy type. o SKILL GAUGE There is a maximum of 9 skill points when fighting a battle, and you need skill points for most skill based attacks or healing. Although skill points will fill up slowly while you are walking, the best way to increase points is to attack enemies using ordinary weapon attacks. o BLADES AND SKILLS During the game you will encounter new Mana and these enable new skills to be acquired: Iris can summon the Mana, and Edge and Nell can master a Blade. New Blades can only be used after Iris makes a pact with a Mana, and there are 8 Mana and 4 different Blades for Edge and Nell. They also have the Normal default Blade and so have 5 each, and every Blade has unique skills and stats. Note that two of these Mana will not be encountered during normal play and are optional, so you have to find them and defeat them in order to make a pact with the Mana. Most of these skills require skill points in order to be used, and some also require items. When a Blade is equipped you can check on the skills and requirements in the Skills Menu. When you win a battle you gain experience, Cole (money) monster drops, and Blade Points. These Blade Points will be added to whatever Blade is currently equipped, and this will increase the Blades' Levels and activate more skills. You can ONLY change Blades in the summoning circle in the workshop. Each Blade has a range of weapons that can only be equipped to that particular Blade. As well as these Blade and Mana based skills you can use skills, known as "Common Skills" which are attached to accessories. These are a range of healing and attack spells which can be used by anyone who equips the appropriate accessory. ================== ix. BURST CHAINS ......................................................... B09 ================== Burst Chains will get you more bonuses from the fight in terms of money, Blade Points and experience. A Burst Gauge bar shows at the bottom left of the battle screen and multiple attacks, or ones which target an enemy's weakness, will fill up the gauge faster. (Enemy attacks can deplete the Burst Gauge before it activates.) When the burst gauge is full, then the Burst will occur and this fills up the skill gauge to 9 (full). All attacks and healing magic are stronger and with the additional Skill points available you can use the best and most powerful skills against the enemy. As a nice bonus, when the Burst occurs all enemies are stunned, and this means that the first attack against them is automatically a critical attack, and their next action is delayed. ================= x. THE CHARACTERS ........................................................ B10 ================= These are their default items and equipment. EDGE VANHITE Pyre Blade (physical attack: fist icon) 4x HIT Mist Armor IRIS FORTNER Alchemist Staff (magic attack: staff icon) 3x HIT White Separates Default Items: Mana Items: Green Soup (none), Spinacherb 5 Ingredients: Meruze Water 3 Key Items: Iris's Book Recipes: ?Medicinal Idea, Soup NELL ELLIS Slash Rapier (physical attack: fist icon) 3x HIT Red Powerpuff ========== xi. ALCHEMY .............................................................. B11 ========== You can only do alchemy in Iris's workshop using the cauldron. You can make any item, armor, weapon or accessory, IF you have the recipe, and the correct ingredients. Uncrafted When an item has not yet been crafted the word: "Uncrafted" will appear in the top right of the screen. Craftable with Substitutes The orange circling arrow that shows by the left of an ingredient for the recipe means that there will be alternative items that can be used for that recipe. These will not be listed until you have the items. Often you can still make something even though you are missing some ingredients, and this message will appear to tell you to go ahead. Derived Recipe The arrow icon beside the first ingredient usually means that there is an alternative RECIPE. Try an alternative ingredient and you will see the Iris Inspiration Icon. You will only be able to make this new item if you have the ingredients, but you will know what these are, and the new possibility will be listed as ????? (Unknown) and uncrafted. This is known as a Derived Recipe. Alchemy Level Every new item you make for the first time, will raise the Alchemy Level. This is the bar at the bottom left of the main menu screen. When Iris's Alchemy level increases she will get some new ideas for recipes and a boost to her Magic Attack and Magic Defense. Alchemy Ideas These new ideas are not yet fully formed, and are really just hints about a new recipe. You have to discover a precise location, in Zey Meruze or one of the Alterworlds, in order for Iris to have her light-bulb moment and discover the new recipe. Properties Although basic craftable items have set properties which cannot be altered, you can select properties for Equipment. What this means is that you have a choice (depending on the ingredients you use), and can make things that have particular strengths: for example, Stun (S) - small, Magic (M) - medium, Atk (L) - large, or even Deadly Toxin or Autoheal. This is where your skills as an alchemist can be put to good use! ======================= xii. SAVING AND LOADING .................................................. B12 ======================= From one save file, you can make up to 12 separate saves for the game. The only Save Point in Zey Meruze is in Iris Workshop, and you can also load the game from here. =============== xiii. POST GAME .......................................................... B13 =============== After completing the game (whichever ending you choose) you can view the EXTRA option Library/reference section and see everything you acquired in the game. There is also the option to listen to all the music and see the names of the cast and pictures of the main characters. There is no bonus dungeon and no New Game +. =================== xiv. HINTS AND TIPS .......................................................B14 =================== MOST IMPORTANT: YOU CAN NEVER HAVE ENOUGH MELTY SPRING WATER!!! o If you craft an item and give it properties, then all other identical items that you possess will also have those properties. You cannot have different properties on the same item. o Stock up on frequently used items such as water, salt, flour, polishing powder and Melty Spring Water (when you can buy this.) Try to take on the quests that reward you with recipes and rare items. o Many items can only be found as rewards for quests, so be sure to undertake as many quests as possible. Repeated quests often have slightly different rewards. Make sure to be careful how you items such as HOLY EMBLEMS. These are requird for many crucial recipes and you will ONLY find them from quests. o If a quest does not appear when you think it should, take on other quests to clear space on the board and this allows more quests to be posted. o Check back at the Guild often, especially when completing a quest, and new ones will appear. You can also trigger new quests by visiting an Alterworld. o You do not have to complete all quests to finish the game, but if you want the quest that allows you to go for the "good" ending of the game, and to take on the most challenging (optional) boss then, complete ALL quest point quests. o Avoid battles by jumping over enemies, or slashing weak ones, but if you enter a battle don't run away as this uses up a lot (one bead's worth) of time. o If you have to run away from a battle, the enemy will disappear. This can be useful if you need to get somewhere and a powerful monster is blocking the route. o Win battles fast by targeting enemy weaknesses. The rewards are better, and there will be no loss of time in the Alterworld. o Everyone can equip one weapon, one piece of armor and two accessories so make sure that these possess different properties, since properties do not stack. Keep experimenting with new ingredients and you can often improve the quality of your equipment. =============================================================================== C. T H E W A L K T H R O U G H .........*WALK =============================================================================== This walkthrough is arranged to follow the Chapters of the game. Each chapter includes Quests which reward you with Quest Points and the final Mission, which must be completed to move on to the next chapter. There are no spoilers for the story. All quests for each chapter are listed and you can do most of these in whatever order you decide, but I have suggested how you can complete some of them more efficiently without having to spend too much time going back and forth. =============================================================================== Z E Y M E R U Z E M A P =============================================================================== Zey Meruze is the only town, and here you can shop, chat and undertake various quests. There are no enemies to fight, though there are items to gather: bags and barrels will yield random items, and you can help yourself to water at the fountain and at the jetty to the right of Iris's workshop. There are also a few treasure chests. This is the hub of game, in effect, and you will be doing a lot of to-ing and fro-ing. Although there is an in-game map, I have made one as well, for easy reference. This shows the location of all the shops and the Alterworlds, although only one is accessible at first.

Walk to the right and you arrive at Westbridge and the entrance to Zey Meruze. You might plan to return back into the Alterworld and explore for a while, but Iris won't let you. =============== Visit the Guild =============== Walk into the town and talk to anyone if you want. Pick up the brown bags on your way and head up and left to find a chest containing Paw Gloves. Then carry on right and there is another chest [Cure Jar] just before reaching the fountain. Fill up on Meruze Water. Iris won't let you explore more until you have reported to the Guild, so you might as well do as you are told. Head up past the fountain helping yourself to the first bag you see, and at the entrance to the Guild there will be a short scene. After this you can in fact do some exploring and walk left to find the shops, and right to find a chest [Nicro Cloth] by the back door of the Tavern. Go inside the inn and through the door to the right to find another chest containing [Nectar]. You can also play with the globe in here: don't worry if it flies off, another one will be there next time you visit. Okay, let's not put it off anymore, and enter the GUILD. You will be introduced to Anna and the Bulletin Board. There is only one open Quest, so that's the one to take. Check your quest notes if you forget where to go, who to see, or what to find. Talk to the other people if you wish and open the two chests for [210 Cole], and [Flour] Although the task now is to visit the Library and meet Ewan, you can explore if you want, and head back past the fountain to the Workshop if you want to save your game. There is another chest alongside Iris' workshop [Legien Ore] and you can fill up on water from the jetty to the right of her home. You can explore the rest of the town now, picking up any other bags and chests. There is a chest behind a barrel which you just hit with Edge's sword. This contains [Salt] and is behind the house opposite the empty house on the route to the monument. However, it is best just to go and visit Ewan because walking all around Zey Meruze gets tiring, and only after this visit will you be able to make use of the green boats you may have noticed in various parts of the town. (There is a chest containing [Heal Jar], if you go left at the Library steps o Quest Tutorial o Taxi Tutorial o Tutorial for Alterworlds TAXIS AND SHORT CUTS Now you will have access to the boatman, and he will take you to the exit by the Western Bridge. Take a quick trip back to the Workshop to save your game if you haven't yet done so, and maybe do some shopping, but you cannot yet do any alchemy. These taxis cost 10 Cole a ride and save a lot of hassle in getting around the town quickly. When you are ready walk into the purple mist for your first adventure in the Alterworld! ================================ The First Quest: Valtessa: MAP A ================================ Although the aim is just to pick up one item, you can take some time to explore the Forest and fight some enemies. You can see all the details of the current quests if you choose SELECT. (A quest is not recorded in the Reference Menu until it is completed.) You enter at the bottom left corner of the map and if you check the in-game map by pressing Select, you can see a flashing exclamation mark which is your destination. Ignore this for now and walk forwards and down and back along the first path where you cannot see a room on the map. In here are some crystals, grass that you can cut with your sword (press square to use your sword outside of battle) and a chest containing Healing Ankh. This is a valuable accessory and best to equip it to Iris. Return to the large area and hop up the grass to get a brown bag. Continue right, and past the large red enemy. You can win a fight against him easily enough if you reach burst mode. Simply use fire attacks against the Puni and Kobold with Edge and use Iris's magic, and with a Burst you will increase a level. In front of you, where you enter the next room, there will be a chest with the Magic Staff inside. As soon as you open the chest there will be a battle, so if you want to explore a bit more then don't open the chest. Check the Valtessa guide for more details on what you can find and where you can go at this stage of the game. o----------------------o | BOSS - PLATINUM PUNI | |----------------------| | Protections: Status | | Weakness: Fire | | Skills: | o----------------------o There will be a simple battle against a Platinum Puni. He resists magic, but is weak to Edge's Pyre Blade which he will automatically use. Let Iris make a normal physical attack to increase the Burst Gauge and one more Pyre from Edge and you should get a Burst. All attacks will do very much more damage, but any attack from the enemy will decrease the gauge. You also get a full 9 points to use on more powerful attacks. You'll notice that each battle gains Blade Points as well as money and experience. After you leave the forest you will see a new screen with the Field Bonus listed. Aim to complete these and you will receive some additional rewards. (All the details of these bonuses and how to complete them are in the Valtessa Alterworld section.) o Battle Tutorial and Effects. o Field Bonus Tutorial when you leave the Forest. At the end of every Alterworld visit your team will automatically return to the workshop where you can save. =================== The First Synthesis =================== Now return to Ewan, who will take you back to the Workshop and then walk or take a taxi back to the Guild and take the two quests. When you return to the Workshop there will be an icon of Iris's face with a flashing yellow light to the right of the room. Investigate and ? Medicinal Idea becomes the recipe for Restorative Medicine. She will also have three more Inspirational Ideas, which are listed for Alchemy Level 0, and now you can start to synthesize. o Tutorial for Synthesis. o Tutorial for Properties You are advised to buy in bulk! Salt, Flour, Polishing Powder, Legien Ore and Water (though this is free) should always be in plentiful supply. You don't have much money as yet, but when you do make sure to stock up on the cheaper items as you will use them for many recipes. As soon as you make one item there will be a tutorial on Properties. You can have two for weapons and only one for armor and accessories. Only the strongest effect will be active, and you can see this on the equipment screen where a duplicate property will be greyed out. For example, if you equip a weapon with the property HIT + 1, and an accessory with HIT + 2, the total additional hits would be two. Or, if you have armor with the property Magic + (S) and a weapon with Magic + (M), only the Magic + (M) would be active. Even without buying any recipes or ingredients you should be able to make the Raven Robe, Green Soup and Heal Jar. This will increase Iris' Alchemy Level to just over half for the first level. If you find the Alchemy ideas you can also make the X-Jar (from the Pot recipe), and using Philosopher's Ash from the Common Dirt recipe. Now time to go shopping! Buy the Mechsword recipe and Iris can make and improve Edge's weapon. Buy Polishing Powder and the recipe for Cloth from the Book Store. After making all these items her Alchemy Level will rise to Level 1 and you will have more recipe ideas. You can now go and find these ideas by returning to the places where you can find them. While in Valtessa fight enough battles with the large red enemies to get at least 3 Wild Meat for a Quest in the next chapter. You can also increase your Valtessa Bonus. =========== More Quests =========== Complete the Heal Jar quest first, and Grimoire Castle will open up and you can accept Retrieval (Fetch) Quests. o Tutorial on Cancelling Quest and Retrieval Quests. Now, if you want to continue doing quests, simply avoid getting the full 500 Quest Points. If you want to move on to the next chapter then as soon as you reach the required number of points there will be a Mission, and ALL quests are on hold. If you are in the middle of a quest, don't worry, as you can simply continue and complete it in the following chapter. So long as you have accepted a quest, it will still be shown in your quest list and even if you haven't started it, you can do so in the next chapter. You can accept all quests for your current level, but at some point there will be no more, and all new quests indicate" NOT YET!". ====== Review ====== Despite doing all the quests and making everything you can find or afford to buy it is doubtful that you will be able to afford to buy all the recipes on sale. However, many of these have ingredients that you don't yet have access to: such as Alchemic Metal. This includes Light Armor, Battleaxe recipes. Cake requires Goat Cheese and a couple more things you won't have yet. It's not worth buying the Lance or Rapier recipes since there is no-one who can use such weapons yet, and besides, they also require items you don't yet posses. Check with the man by the board in the Guild to receive some provisions: Green Soup x5 and Nectar x3, Sweaty Fruit x2. You get more each time you increase in Raider Rank if you ask for them. RAIDER RANK 03 WIND - Green Soup x5 and Nectar x3, Sweaty Fruit x2. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R O N E - Q U E S T S : R A I D E R R A N K 0 3 =============================================================================== N O R M A L Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MEDICINE DELIVERY Client : Anna, Guild Objective: Get 5 Heal Jars Reward : Quest Points: 200, Adventurer's Clothing x1 Recipe Rank : 03 D Unable to Cancel Make these in the Workshop, and Anna will tell you to deliver them to Yach at the General Store.

Rank : 03 D Unable to Cancel You'll find Puko on the patch of earth to the right after entering the Beast Quarters. Return to the Guild Combat Reception Desk to meet the object of his affections: Phenyl, and then report back to Pukko to complete the quest. (You will end up back at the Guild, saving you the walk back.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- UNITING THE BEASTMEN Client : Cerber, his house, Beastmen:'s Quarters Objective: Talk to Cerber. Reward : 100 Quest Points, Enhanced Mechsword x1, Recipe. Rank : 03 D Unable to Cancel After finding and talking to Cerber, do as he asks and head out to Grimoire to find and defeat defeat five groups of Caterpillars. To reach the Grimoire you go through the secret door from the Scripture Library in Zey Meruze. The monsters are immediately visible in the entrance area to the right and left by the fact that they are coloured Purple. They are weak to Ice. Report back to Cerber. F E T C H Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EVERYONE'S DREAM Client : Eva, Tavern. Objective: Wild Meat x3 Reward : Worthless Stone x10, 1000 Cole. Rank : 03 D Defeat at least three Bears in Valtessa for their drop of Wild Meat. They are found inside the large red enemies. Then return to the Bad Liver Tavern (down the path to the right of the Guild), and give the meat to Eva, the barmaid. NOTE: there will be more quests from Eva involving Steak, which requires Wild Meat, so make sure to keep a supply of these. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PROOF OF ALCHEMY Client : Ella, Rio Book Store Objective: Philosopher's Ash x7 will be needed Reward : Poison Shroom x10, 1200 Cole Rank : 03 D Make 7 of these and give to Ella. You will first have to find the recipe for Philosopher's Ash. This is one of Iris' Alchemy ideas and she will uncover the recipe when she sees a patch of dirt in the second large room in Valtessa. You can't miss this if you explore just a little. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WANTING ATTENTION Client : Yach, his store Objective: Shifty Eye x3 Reward : 1300 Cole, 8 Directional Spring 7 Rank : 03 D * Repeatable Go to Grimoire and fight a few ordinary red enemies. Sword Geist and Shield Geist drop this item. * Repeatable - there are a number of these quests from Yach so it's worthwhile always having a handy supply of Shifty Eyes to give him whenever you see this quest. After you achieve a few levels you can sword slash blue enemies in Grimoire and find loads of Shifty Eyes! NOTE: repeated quests may require more than three Shifty Eyes, and the rewards can change too: for example, Puppy Paw Bonbon x6 and 1300 Cole were given for 5 Shifty Eyes in a repeat quest. C O M B A T Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- None as yet, because your Raider Rank is too low. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R O N E : M I S S I O N : The Doors of Hope =============================================================================== Book of Hope: the Beginning You will see a scene which reveals the location for this mission in Grimoire, and first you must return to the Library to speak to Ewan. By this time you should be able to equip Iris with a Flame Ring so they both have access to Fire attacks. Enter the Alterworld and check your map for the red exclamation mark to show the precise location. It is on 3F, in the Library area, so first make your way there. This entails heading left from the entrance to Grimoire and then following the passageway until you reach the opening to the second floor. Then walk left and over the bridge and keep left until there is a junction. Turn left down the screen and enter the opening to emerge at the third floor, Libary Desk. Follow the passage until you reach the main library area. There is a healing spot in the centre of the books in the Library so take advantage of this and then walk towards the corridor leading to the mark. You will be challenged to a battle. o-----------------------------------o | BOSS - ALVERO KRONIE | |-----------------------------------| | Location: Grimoire Library | | Protections: None | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Twin Blade, Thunder Blade | o-----------------------------------o Twin Blade is a timed attack which is annoying as it prevents you from building up your Burst Gauge. However, counter this by using Edge's Windmill timed skill and you should be able to get a Burst and then keep using Windmill. If you anticipate any difficulty with this fight, then just make sure you have raised the Skill Gauge before the battle, so you have an advantage. Also equip Iris with a staff that has more than one Hit, so she can help with raising the Burst. (Don't use the Crushing Empress staff for this fight!) Edge should have Mist Armour and his Pyre Blade. Room of Prayer Walk back to heal after the battle if you want to, (it's not necessary) and then back down to the small empty room in the SE corner. Press X on the bookcase and enter the secret Room of Prayer. Walk along the empty corridor to the end. Make sure to chat to Pamela either before or after the fight. Report back to Ewan in the Library to complete the first chapter.

There will be more quests all of which you can accept. You will want to explore the new area, and check it out for new Alchemy ideas from the last chapter, but first call in on the clients and make sure you have all the details for the quests. Phenyl is the easiest to talk to first so walk back to the Combat Reception Desk to take the Combat exam. This requires you to visit Posporia as you would expect. =================== Starting the Quests =================== You can do your round of the rest of the clients, though don't bother with Eva until you have made the 7 Steak items. However, first head to Posporia, because you can only get hold of a fishing rod after you have completed this Quest, and then you can do the cat and fishing ones all at the same time. Make sense anyway: cats like fish. (By the way, if you do the Gon quest first there will be no more quests yet, so it is fine to leave this one until after Pospoaria.) My guys were Level 11 after the Combat Exam battle and our exploration of Posporia, and we returned with lots of new items and recipes. Report back to the Guild and there should be another Quest on the board, this time from Ella at the Book Store. Once you complete the Combat Exam you can take Combat Quests, and Anna will give you a special request from Hegel at the weapon store. Phenyl will bestow your reward, (Fishing Pole), which means that you are now ready to go fishing...except that the Hegel event now unfolds automatically. After this, head back to the Guild and there will be 4 more quests: 2 with Quest Points, one combat and one repeat Shifty Eye quest. o Combat quest tutorial. You always report back to Phenyl for these quests and you can have as many going at one time as you like, but there is a (generous) time limit to these, although if you fail to complete one, it is likely to come up again. ============== Fishing Quests ============== Now is time for the fishing group of quests. To start the cat quest talk to Papal, the girl who has lost her cat. She is standing just below the Fountain, and you will need to go and search for Gon in Valtessa. Now take a taxi to the Westbridge and walk down the grass verge just to the left of the boat to find Funan. You will get a number of quests from him in future chapters, so don't forget where to find him! You can head to Valtessa to the fishing spot and catch fish and boots, for two quests, and find Gon as well. The Puni Brothers are in Valtessa too, so in fact you could complete 4 quests now, as well as trying for the Valtessa bonus of fishing 10 times. If you plan to go after the Punis equip Iris with the Crushing Empress. In fact the Puni Brothers are waiting for you at the fishing spot, so after picking up Gon, you can now see the fishing area marked on the map. It is a good idea to catch as much as you can, since you will gain a bonus for Valtessa as well as having sufficient fish for a few quests and recipes. o FISHING This is simple. When a fish is hooked a bar appears on screen. Reel in the fish by hitting the red area on the bar using the X button. If you miss you fail...and sometimes you will plan to miss because the red area will take up most of the bar and this means there is a monster and not a fish or anything useful. Fish at least 10 times for the bonus. =============== Grimoire Quests =============== To trigger more Grimoire Quests, first do the "Flowers for the Library" and after this you can do two at once in Grimoire, as well as getting Shifty Eyes for Yach. First head to the library for Winna's quest, and then to the Dark Altar for the "Echoes in the Castle" quest. o BLADES After this quest Iris will make a pact with the Mana, Plua, and you will have the Summoning Skill for Iris and Blades for Edge. The awkward thing here is that you can only change Blades at the workshop so you have to decide before venturing forth, which one would be best to use. Now you have an option to continue to use Edge's normal blades or equip Plua. You probably will still have one level for the Normal Blade left to reveal so you might want to continue using this Blade. However Plua has vastly better speed, though lower attack, than the Normal Blades. You also change weapon type, and now you will have the Kunai and Wind Slicer. Although the stats are much the same for these, the Slicer has more hits. ===================- Raising Raider Rank =================== Now be careful. If you have completed enough quests to gain 800 points and only need another 100, if you then take on a 200 point quest, you will be on to the next chapter. The best way is to avoid completing one of these until you have done everything else you want to do. ========================= Alchemy and New Equipment ========================= Now to do some more crafting. You should be able to make quite a few new things in order to raise Iris's Alchemy level once again. You can buy more recipes with the money you receive from quests. Mana Items Nectar requires Zuftuff Water, Bitter Grape and X-Jar. Make Flame and then replace Canone Rock with Thunder Stone to get Lightning Rod. Get the Glacier Stone from the Quest to make Medicine X and craft Bomb Ice. Ingredients Goat's Cheese: replace Goat milk with Eicheloa which will give you a new idea for Shroom Juice, or you could wait and make Alchemic Metal using your one source of Melty Spring Water, and then make the Magical Torch accessory. Make lots of Steak. Equipment Kuma Outfit will produce a new item if you replace Bear Pelt with White Separates, except that you don't yet have Formal Fabric, which is the last item needed for this new armor. However you can make Fairy Clothes with +1 HIT, and then use this to make Arabesque Stole with the Chrome Crystal. By this point Iris's level should have increased to Alchemy Level 3. Go outside the Workshop and look at the Windmill for another idea to come to fruition, although you won't be able to craft it just yet. Accessories You will also be able to craft the Ice Ring using a Glacier Stone and Chrome Crystal from Ella's quest. This has the CS ICE STORM, and finally make the Fairy Stick. Change your equipment to reflect these better weapons and accessories. ====== Review ====== After completing the Puni quest there were now five NOT YET quests on the board. But although you cannot do them until your rank is higher, it can be helpful to know what they are, because you can plan accordingly and make sure you have made or collected some of the items needed. Edge and Iris will be around Level 12 after completing these quests. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R T W O - Q U E S T S : R A I D E R R A N K : O 4 =============================================================================== Combat quests become available after you take the Combat Exam Quest in Chapter Two. N O R M A L Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ALTERWORLD VISIT Client : Kuu, Fountain Area Objective: Take him to an Alterworld Reward : Multi-Mechsword x1 Recipe, 100 Quest points Rank : 04 D Unable to Cancel Speak to the child to the right of the Fountain concerning the Quest to take him to the ALterworlds. You agree to take him to Valtessa and he will meet you at the entrance. He will appear whenever you are ready to enter Valtessa when he will join you. Explore, heading north until Kuu finds a new path. Events will proceed and then you can return to Zey Meruze. Find him again to the right of the Fountain in order to claim the reward and complete the quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMBAT EXAM Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat enemy in Posporia Reward : Quest Points 200, 1 ??? (Fishing Pole) Rank : 04 D Unable to Cancel Take the taxi to the East Bridge and walk up through the Beastmen's Quarters, Depths, heading to the right where the path forks. Make your way down the tree to the Entrance Area. If you look at your map you will see a red exclamation mark which indicates your adversary. For the full details of this first accessible area in Posporia see the separate section. In fact you can manage to explore everywhere, open all chests and still have time for tea...I mean, still have time to fight the monster at the Watchtower. Head to the far right room in Posporia Battlegrounds, going through the Neutral Baths and then keeping to the upper path. This takes you to the Watchtower Steps where you will find Mama Puni. Report back to Phenyl to complete this quest and receive the Fishing Pole. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - MAMA PUNI | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Posporia Watchtower Entrance | | Protections: None | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Puni Breath | | Drops: Canone Rock | o----------------------------------------o The battle starts with two red and two blue Punis and Puni Mama. Use Flame attacks to target the red and blue ones and build up your gauge. Use Windmill with Edge and even after getting a Burst this timed attack does not deplete the Skill Gauge so it is win win win all the way!. If you have time continue up the steps, and there is another hourglass around the corner and you can climb up to the Watchtower Ruins for a great view!. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ECHOES OF THE CASTLE Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Investigate echoes in Grimoire Castle, Altar second floor. Reward : 200 Quest Points, Gold x1 Recipe (Kunai received after battle) Rank : 04 D Unable to Cancel Walk up to the second floor of the castle and keep going left to Inner Centre East and then to the East Corridor. You will see a red mark on the map, so continue down the passage to the Dark Altar and the inevitable boss battle. At the end of the path is the Altar and an enemy. After beating her you will receive a Mana, Plua: the Mana of Darkness. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - THE ELDER 1 and 2 | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Dark Altar, Grimoire | | Protections: Special | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Flame Gaze (1) Flare Cannon (2)| | Hell Wave, Meteor (Timed) | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------o For the first stage of the battle use Windmill with Edge and physical attacks with Iris who should have a few hits by now and the Caduceus. She will soon be defeated, but then reveals her true form! Keep healed and use the same strategy. Iris should use Mana Storm once you get a burst and Edge could try Chain Digger if you get a chain of more than 7 or 8 hits. Green Soups are useful for repeat healing. At the end of this battle you meet Plua the Mana of Darkness and an old friend from the other Atelier Iris games. Iris makes a pact and now you have access to BLADES! for Edge and the Summoning Skill for Iris. There will be a tutorial on Blades. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FIND ME CAT FOOD! Client : Papal, Fountain Area Objective: Talk to Papal first Reward : 150 Quest Points, Kumai x1 Recipe. Rank : 04 D Unable to Cancel Speak to Papal at the Fountain and then go to the tavern. On the way you will be told that you need Tiger Blowfish for Gon. You can fish for these in Valtessa if you have none. Give to Papal to complete the quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FIND MY CAT! Client : Papal, Fountain Area Objective: Find Gon Reward : Quest Points 100, 8 Directional Spring x2 Unable to Cancel First speak to Papal who is waiting just below the fountain and will have"Quest" above her head. Gon is found in the second small room to the left in Valtessa and all you need to do is return to Papal to complete the quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FLOWERS FOR THE LIBRARY Client : Pamela, Grimoire Objective: Give her a Huffin Blossom Reward : 200 Quest Points, Canone Rock x5 Rank : 04 C Unable to Cancel Make sure you have a Huffin (easy enough since they are obtained by cutting grass in the bottom right room at Valtessa next to the entrance), and then head out to the Library in Grimoire. However you also need water, and an X-Jar so make sure you have these first. If you remember, this is reached by going up left from the entrance all the way around until you reach the staircase from the landing on 1F, and then walking left through the Inner Center area to Inner West and then heading left and up the stairs to the Library. You should be able to sword slash all small enemies by now. Meet Pamela at her usual haunt (!) and give her the Blossom. Now she wants a Vase, so give her an X-Jar, and finally give her some water. That's the Quest clear. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOR YOU Client : Pukko, Beastmen Quarters Objective: Bring him a Kunai Rank Required: 04 D Reward : 150 Quest points, Fairy Hat x1 Rank : 04 D Give him one of your Kunai. You will end up back at the Guild after fulfilling this quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GHOST RESEARCH Client : Winna, Scripture Library Objective: Speak to Winna. Reward : 100 Quest Points, Mechanical Staff x1 Recipe. Rank : 04 D Unable to Cancel Speak to Winna and then he will accompany you into Grimoire to meet Pamela in the Library. Winna, the red haired researcher will be waiting for you in the Scripture Library. He will join you when you enter the portal to Grimoire. Make your way back to the Library slashing everything on the way, and Winna will speak to Pamela. That's it! Return to Winna (once you leave Grimoire) for the reward. Make Gearshaft, a weapon for Iris, from the recipe. C O M B A T Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FURRY MAGICIAN Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Kobold Magicians, Posporia Reward : Healing Ankh x1, 2000 Cole Rank : 04 C While you're after this guy you could take some time out to fish for two boots in a row and win 10 battles. Fishing can kill two birds with one stone, since if you stay long enough you can catch your boots and fight some enemies. The enemy is found at the same place as the Puni Mama: just up the steps at the Watchtower Entrance. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - KOBOLD MAGICIAN | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Posporia Watchtower | | Protections: None | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Plasma Ray, Mind Bomb | o----------------------------------------o Use Windmill again to ensure you build up the gauge even if you are asleep! Of course, having forgotten he used a sleep attack, I had the Cure CS on Edge and he got the sleep spell. Once you have a burst and a chain of attacks, use the Chain Digger to finish him off. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PUNI RESEARCH. Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Slay Punis of Valtessa 5 groups needed Reward : Thunder Stone x7, 2300 Cole. Rank : 04 D * Repeatable 5 times. * Purple Monsters Find and kill 5 groups of purple enemies. NOTE: the numbers change from 5-7 groups, and the rewards can also be Glacier Stone x5 and 2800 Cole. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PUNI BROTHERS Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Puni Brothers, Valtessa Rank : 04 B Reward : Bitter Grape x3, 1000 Cole Find and defeat these at the fishing spot in Valtessa. You will first need to complete the previous Puni quest. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - PUNI BROTHERS: Taro, Kichi,Jiro| |----------------------------------------| | Location: Valtessa Fishing Spot | | Protections: Special | | Weakness: None | | Skills: | o----------------------------------------o Although they all have Special Skills protection they are weak to the Crushing Empress which targets Punis, and using this weapon this will assist you in building up the Burst Gauge. Have Edge use Windmill and concentrate on hitting one brother at a time. Although Edge's Buster Drive Skill can do more damage it does not help build the gauge, so I prefer the Windmill attack. At the end of this battle Edge learned Chain Digger for his Normal Blade. F E T C H Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CORRECT KNOWLEDGE Client : Ella Objective: Medicine X x7 Rank : 04 C Reward : Glacier Stone x5, Chrome Crystal x5 Make seven Medicine X. Original Recipe: Derived from Restorative Medicine Items needed: Poison Shroom o Meruze Water/Zuftuff Water/Goat Milk Puniball ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- JUMBO STEAK Client : Eva, Tavern Objective: Steak x5 Rank : 04 B Reward : Puppy Paw Bonbon 7, Canone Rock 8 * Repeatable Make these using Wild Meat, dropped from Bears in Valtessa. You will need the recipe: Flame Broiled Dish, which is found at the inn when Iris reaches Alchemy Level 1. Simply check out the table in front of the entrance and you'll see the lightbulb. Then, use Wild Meat instead of fish and you'll make steak. Original Recipe: Flame Broiled Dish Items Needed: o Wild Meat/Golden Meat o Belgrade Potato/Carrotato Salt NOTE: the numbers and rewards change for repeat quests: maybe 1 or 5 Steak and Thunder Stone can also be a reward. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RAIN RAIN COME AGAIN Client : Manna, Grocery Store Objective: Boot x1 Reward : Fairy Stick x1, Puppy Paw Bonbon x5 Rank : 04 D Fish for Boot at Valtessa's fishing spot, and return to Manna. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SORROW, OH LAKE FISH Client : Funan, Westbridge Objective: Lake Fish x5 Reward : Thunder Stone x5, Wild Meat x3 Rank : 04 D Fish for Lake Fish in Valtessa, and now return and give the fish to Funan, =============================================================================== C H A P T E R T W O : M I S S I O N - Broken Ties =============================================================================== First of all you will automatically meet with Hagel. Then head for the tavern, and finally take a taxi to the entrance to Westbridge. You will return automatically to the tavern, where you are told to head out to the Fairy Village in Posporia. Check your map by scrolling to the second map of the area and the red mark will be visible at the Fairy Territory.village The fastest route is to go east through the fishing spot and then through the Gate to Fairy Fort West Entrance (this is where the Fairy shop is located). There is a new healing place next to a tree in Eastern Fairy Forest just before arriving at the village. You know what that means! (You can go the other way as well and there is another healing spot at the far south side of the village.) o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - YULA and NELL | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Fairy Village, Posporia | | Protections: Special Skills | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Mow Down, Yula Strike | | Armour Piercing, Quick Panther | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------o The strategy here depends on whether or not you have equipped the Plua Blade. If not, then do as you have done before, and use Windmill to build up the Burst Gauge. If you have Plua then take advantage of Blink attacks with the new Plua Blade, and Plua can be summoned by Iris to make them both fall asleep, though of course they will wake as soon as you attack again. Once you get a burst then keep using Blink and Mana Storm with Iris. Defeat them one at a time. Yula's attacks are more damaging, but since Nell is easier to defeat you could finish her off first. Mow Down damages everyone repeatedly, and Yula Strike is a timed attack on one. Quick Panther and Armour Piercing are physical attacks from Nell, Edge should gain sufficient ability points to learn Phantom Shift for Plua. Now you receive the second gem. The fairy by the tree house door to the left will tell you that Funan went home. You could stay for a while and gain more field bonuses since Edge's Wind Slicer weapon will target Kobolds and Bears (beasts) and Iris's Gearshaft targets the mushrooms (with Ice) so it is easy to get fast kills. When you've had enough return to town, and Funan will greet you and give you the lost hammer, thus ending the mission and the chapter. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R T H R E E ..................................................C03 =============================================================================== o----------------------------------o | Quests - Target Points 950 | | Rank 05 - WHIRL (2500) | |----------------------------------| | A Fishy Gift 150 points | | A Simple Quest 100 points | | First Feelings 150 points | | Monster Puppeteer 200 points | | The Reasons For War 200 points | | Unsatisfied Humans 150 points | | Unseen Weep 100 points | o----------------------------------o. o AREAS OPENED IN THIS CHAPTER - Dakascus - Crystal Valley East - Posporia - Kuma area o MANA/BLADES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Nymph (Nell Blade) [Monster Puppeteer Quest] - Jiptus (Edge Blade) [Unseen Weep Quest] o RECIPES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Bread Bikini [Quest reward - Let's Talk] - Cloth Accessories [Quest rewards - The Reasons for War] - Curative Medicine [Quest reward - Unsatisfied Humans] - Dress [Penn's Discounts - Dakascus] - Hat [Chest in Crystal Valley East Lizard Thief room] - Holy Clothing Recipe [Chest in Dakascus, Crystal Valley East] - Jewelcraft [Quest item - First Feelings] - Magic Battleaxe [Quest reward - A Fishy Gift] - Men's Clothing [Penn's Discounts - Dakascus] - Mushroom Charm [Alchemy Level 4 - mushrooms by tree: the third large room in Valtessa OR in Posporia Western Fairy Forest near the Fairy sitting at the top of a tree in the room before Fairy Fort, West Entrance] - Mysterious Card [Chest - Posporia Kuma territory] - Nell's Clothes [Quest reward - Monster Puppeteer] - Risque Clothing [Alchemy Level 4 - Oasis fishing spot in Dakascus] - Sharp Kunai [Quest reward - Unseen Weep] o ALCHEMY LEVELS OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Alchemy Level 4 TIP Make good use of accessories to enable common skills that complement the Blades and weapon you have equipped. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R T H R E E : W A L K T H R O U G H =============================================================================== RANK 05 WHIRL -Heal Jar x5, Nectar x5 Bitter Fruit x1 and Sweaty Fruit x1. =============== Visit the Guild =============== Head for the Guild and Anna will inform you that the Crystal Valley of Dakascus is now open to you. In Posporia things have changed and you can now gain access into the Kuma territory to the North. Pick up your Rank raised items before leaving the Guild. ====== Quests ====== Quests on the board are likely to be: Let's Talk, Green-Tail Bandits, The Age Of...!, Something Furry, and Monster Puppeteer. This last quest gives you another Mana, and since this enables Iris to use Ice attacks and Nell to heal and boost stats, it's a good idea to complete this early on in the chapter before visiting Dakascus, as many enemies there are weak to Ice. Also, complete this quest before taking on the Unseen Weep Quest, although I think you have to do it first anyway. Then equip the Nymph Blade to Nell as it allows you to heal everyone from negative status effects. Do the easy quests first, and any leftover from the previous chapter. The Posporia one is fun, and will lead to some more from the same source, so you might want to do that after talking to Anna. Chatter Flower, Tufts and Monster Bones you should have after gardening and fighting some battles in Valtessa, and the reward from Hagel is very useful as it will enable you to make some items using the Alchemic Metal. You can also now visit Dakascus for the first time and buy the essential Melty Spring Water. Make sure to buy a lot of these as they are used in many recipes. In fact, you can never have enough MSW! Wait before doing the Mercenary Fight quest in Posporia, until the quest "The Reasons for War" appears, and you can do both of these at the same time, since the Jin Riders appear in the Kuma Mountains and West area. You can collect all the new treasure and complete these two quests in one visit. You could also complete the Pranks Prohibited at the same time, since you will end the quests at the Fairy Village where they are easy to find. If the time is running out with just a couple of beads left, then head to the Fairy Treasury and you can steal all there treasure as the guard will have gone for lunch. There are some repeat quests in this chapter, so make sure to do the easy ones at least, such as Yach's Shifty Eye. ======= Alchemy ======= Now you can make the Heavy Glaive and Metal Hauberk with the Alchemic Metal, and the Magical Torch, Thunder Ring and Silver Frost Ring using an Ice Ring and the Alchemic Metal. These accessories are useful because they give you additional common skills or spells that anyone can use if they equip the accessory. Make sure to improve Nell's equipment with better armor and two accessories before heading out to battle! After visiting Dakascus you can also make some new equipment: Slash Rapier, and Lancelot, and the Bread Bikini after taking the Chatter Flower to Manna. (Be careful about using this armour as it is weak to physical attacks.) You can also make Red Powerpuff from the Nell's Clothes recipe, using Nicro CLoth as a substitute for Bear Pelt. You can finally make your very own Alchemic Metal from the Ingot recipe bought in Chapter One, but you had to wait for the MSW (Melty Spring Water). Make the Wind Slicer when you have the Sharp Kunai recipe from the Unseen Weep quest, and then you can make the Stratos Sword and still have a Wind Slicer to spare if you need it. By this point you will have raised Iris's Alchemy Level once more. =========== More Quests =========== Until you complete the Reasons for War there seems to be an embargo on new quests, even if you complete all the Combat and Fetch ones. After this was completed there were suddenly three more: Winna's, the Harpy, and the next Kuu quest. ============ More Alchemy ============ Once you have a Bear Pelt from the Kuma territory chests you can make Kuma Outfit, and Black Hat with the Black Liquid. Trauer Tarot is made from the Mysterious Card recipe also found in Posporia, so long as you have a spare Magician's Book (which is easy enough to make.) You can also make Goat Cheese with the Goat Milk you found, and then Cheesecake. Try using a different ingredient for Mist Armor (Glansen Ore) and you can make Mist Plate. Use Carrotato or Belgrade Potato and you can make Hot Salad from the Steak/Fish recipe. With Winna's Recipe you can make Healing Necklace. You can experiment with a number of different recipe variations but there is usually at least one item missing preventing you from crafting more. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R T H R E E - Q U E S T S : R A I D E R R A N K : O 5 =============================================================================== N O R M A L Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A FISHY GIFT Client : Kuu, Fountain area Objective: Give him a Bonita Rank : 05 C Reward : 150 Quest Points, Magic Battelaxe x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel Bonita can be fished for at the pond in Dakascus, but only after defeating the Lizards that block the path. Kuu is where he always is, to the right of the fountain in Zey Meruze. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A SIMPLE QUEST Client : Earl, Tavern Objective: Give him a Fungushroom Rank : 05 D Reward : 100 Quest Points, Melty Spring Water x5 Unable to Cancel You can fulfil this quest easily as soon as it appears on the board, as Valtessa has these in plentiful supply. Earl is inside the Bad Liver Inn. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FIRST FEELINGS Client : Winna, Scripture Library Objective: Healing Medicine for Pamela Rank : 05 C Reward : 150 Quest Points, Rose x1 (Quest item: Jewelcrafts Recipe) Unable to Cancel Speak to Winna and receive the Jewelcrafts Recipe for the Healing Necklace. Return to the Workshop and make this accessory from Heal Jar, Legien Ore and Melty Spring Water. All you have to do is take it to him and that's the end of the quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MONSTER PUPPETEER Client : Anna Objective: Investigate strange rumor in Posporia Rank : 05 D Reward : Quest Points 200, Nell's Clothes x1, Recipe. (Witchstaff after battle) Unable to Cancel The room is highlighted on your map. It is the fishing spot at the bottom left of the Central Region map, called the Altar of Water. Just head down a couple of rooms and a scene will start after which you are in a battle with three Kobolds: a Priest, Fighter, and Mage. This is nothing out of the ordinary so use your usual attacks. Next head to the new red mark on the map at the Neutral Baths. Talk to the creatures in the baths and then to the fairy in blue to the right. Then walk back to the Altar for another song from Repre and now there is a real boss battle with an Ice Sprite. o--------------------------------------------o | BOSS - ICE SPRITE | |--------------------------------------------| | Location: Altar of Water, Posporia | | Protections: Special Skills, Ice (double) | | Weakness: Fire | | Skills: Healing Echo, Summons Ice Elements | | Frozen Shard | o--------------------------------------------o This enemy starts the battle with what looks like four timed Ice attacks already lined up, but in fact these are separate parts of the Sprite and can be targeted. Obviously being an Ice Sprite it is weak to all flame attacks. You can also use Flame bombs on it. If you made the Accessory Magical Torch then you will have Flare Rain, a timed fire attack. It will use Healing Echo to heal all parts at once, and this is a timed skill, so it will continue to heal. Frozen Shard is an attack by the Ice Elements. The only useful thing is that the elements attacks don't do much damage and they only attack once every other turn. Use Edge's Blink attack (with Plua), and Nell's Quick Panther when you have a burst. I suggest just targeting the Sprite unless you can destroy the elements during a burst. After the battle you will receive another Mana: Nymph, and this gives Nell a new Blade option and Iris a new summon. Both Edge and Nell will increase their equipped Blades' levels as well. Report back to Anna at the Guild. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE REASONS FOR WAR Client : Go to Anna at the counter Objective: Find out why the Fairies and Kuma are at war. Rank : 05 C Reward : 200 Quest Points, Cloth Accessories x1 Recipe. Unable to Cancel Anna will explain that the Fairy territory might be out of bounds so this gives you the first chance to visit the Kuma side of Posporia, as you can now go north from the central area and reach the Kuma Village. Pick up items from various chests along the way, and when you reach the Kuma Village North speak to the Kuma General who is standing on a small platform in front of the door of the Chief's House. Now you can use the Cannon! Hop up the steps leading to the roof of the house at the left of the village and speak to the Kuma there who will send you flying. Helpfully you will get a tutorial on cannon use. This first time you will get to where you want to go without a problem, but after this you have to use the moving bar in the same way as for fishing. You will be in the Fairy Village and all you need to do is walk up the grassy steps and speak to the Fairy General who is standing at the top. Now you can use the Fairy Cannons as well. Report back to the Guild to complete this quest. NOTE: If you plan to do the Mercenary Fight quest at the same time, just head to the Mountains and defeat purple enemies before talking to the General, or using the Cannon. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- UNSATISFIED HUMANS Client : Cerber, Cerber's house, Beastmen:'s Quarters Objective: Investigate complaints from Ella, Yach and Manna. Rank : 05 D Reward : 150 Quest Points, Curative Medicine x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel Talk to Cerber, who asks you to talk to the shopkeepers about why they have been complaining about the Beastmen. Talk to all three shopkeepers and then return to speak to Cerber again. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- UNSEEN WEEP Client : Anna at the counter Objective: Investigate weeping in Valtessa. Rank : 05 C Reward : 100 Quest Points, Sharp Kunai x1 Recipe (Heavy Glaive after battle.) Unable to Cancel Talk to Anna to hear about an unseen girl crying in the Forest Depths. When you arrive, check the Depths map to see additional Quest Info, and walk to the Forest Depths. Fight a few battles on the way to raise the Skill Gauge. When you enter the Depths head straight into the next large room and turn up right past the two large red enemies, and then walk into the right hand room, which is reached by walking down the path below the two grassy steps. This is the Poison Altar, and a scene will begin, after which you will find yourselves in a battle. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - MAGUS | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Valtessa Forest Depths | | Protections: Special, Status Resist x2 | | Weakness: Undead | | Skills: Cursed Dragon (all cursed) | | Death Call timed attack on one | | Zombie Rain (all poisoned) | | Life Drain (sucks HP from one | | Drop: Heavy Glaive | o----------------------------------------o As she says, she inflicts poison so make sure someone has the Skill Cure. I used Edge with Plua and Nell with Nymph so she had the Healing Echo skill with the Cure Jar, as well as Swiftness to increase HITS, which combined with Personal Call will help raise the Burst Gauge. Use Sanctuary with Nell to heal any status effects. Nell will be immune from Life Drain with Nymph, and Plua will activate to block some attacks. At the end of this battle you receive Jiptus, the Mana of Poison, and can now have a chat with Rufina. Report back to Anna for the rewards. C O M B A T Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEAUTIFUL QUEEN Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Harpy in Posporia Rank : 05 B Reward : 3500 Cole, Ice Ring x1 This Boss enemy is not marked on the map but is up the rocks to the right of the Earth Altar in the Kuma Mountains. (This is the large L - shaped room on the Kuma Territory map.) o--------------------------o | BOSS - HARPY | |--------------------------| | Location: Posporia | | Protections: None | | Weakness: Beast | | Skills: Impulse (all) | | Drops: None | o--------------------------o She is fast and will probably manage two attacks for each card, though you can use Iris to summon Jiptus to lower her attack and magic. But there should be no real difficulty and with one burst chain you can beat her. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GREEN TAIL BANDITS Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Lizard Thief in Dakascus Rank : 05 C Reward : 4000 Cole, Laughing Shroom x2 These are poisonous, so be sure to take the Fairy Stick so you can Cure, though you should have Nymph by now for Nell and she can cure all status effects with Sanctuary. These enemies cannot be reached until you have first defeated the Lizard Musketeers. They are hiding away in a small room to the left of the third of six rooms at the far right of the Crystal Valley East map. (You will also find the recipe [Hat] in a chest here. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - LIZARD THIEF x 3 | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Dakcascus, CV East | | Protections: None | | Weakness: Dragon, Ice | | Skills: Venom | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------o There are three of them, and they are all weak to Ice and will inflict Venom, a more damaging form of poisoning. Use Nell's Nymph Sanctuary which not only cures, but provides immunity from Venom attacks, and Plua for Edge which protects him from a number of attacks. The Lizards' normal attacks will do around 30 HP damage depending on your levels and equipment. Once you gain a Burst use Dancing Edge with Edge's Plua which attacks them all at once, and Iris to summon Nymph. Target them one at a time. My team were at level 16/15 for this battle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LIZARD MUSKETEERS Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Lizard Trio in Dakcasus Rank : 05 B Reward : 3000 Cole, Glansen Ore These enemies are found inside a Large Red boss monster which blocks the path to the right from the room that also leads to the Pengie Village. They are ordinary enemies. Lizard Shaman: heals so take him out first. Lizard Lord: attacks one for around 50 HP Lizard Wizard: Hell Wave - powerful fire magic vs all, Tempest - wind magic vs all All three are weak to Ice so equip your team with Ice weapons: this means change Nell to Nymph Blades and have Iris with the Gearshaft. Target them one at a time leaving the Lord until last. After this battle you will have access to Penn's Discounts shop outside town, and the Oasis and Garden. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MERCENARY FIGHT Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Slay Posporian Puni Riders. 8 groups needed. Rank : 05 D Reward : 4000 Cole, Fungushroom x3 * Purple Monsters * Repeatable x5 These are found in Kuma Territory Mountain and you can wait to do this quest until after you take the quest The Reasons for War, and do them both at the same time. It is the room that can be reached from Kuma Village South if you head left and up some rocks. They also appear in Kuma Fort West if you take the western route through the mountains and finally to the village. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PRANKS PROHIBITED Client : Phenyl Objective: Kobold Mage x6/8 Rank : 05 D Reward : 3800/3700 Cole, Glansen Ore x7/Monster Bone x11/5 * Repeatable South part of Posporia - randomly found in small enemies in Western Fairy Forest. They are sometimes in groups that drop from the Tree so this might the best place to find them when you have the Hammer on a repeat quest later in the game. When completing the Reasons for War quest you will be fired back to the Fairy Village and can find these enemies close by (best to head south to the Fairy Village West Entrance) in blue blobs. F E T C H Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LET'S TALK Client : Manna, Grocery Store Objective: Chatter Flower x1 Rank : 05 D Reward : Bread Bikini x1 Recipe, Misty Curtain x3 Take her a Chatter Flower to receive this recipe. (These are found, but not every time, when you grow a Mysterious Seed in the garden in Valtessa, and pick the flower before it turns to seed.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LIFE'S FRIEND Client : Eva, Tavern Objective: Take her Nectar x10 Rank : 05 B Reward : Glansen Ore x5, Monster Bone x5 These are easy enough to make with Water, Bitter Grape and X-Jar. You will probably have more than enough already, but if not just make a few more. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE AGE OF... Client : Yach, General Store Objective: 7 Monster Bones Rank : 05 D Reward : 4000 Cole, Glansen Ore x5, These are dropped by Owl Bears found in Valtessa and Posporia and Lizards in Dakascus, and you get them as a reward for Eva's quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SOMETHING FURRY Client : Hagel, Weapon Shop Objective: 7 Tufts Rank : 05 C Reward : Metal Hauberk x1, Alchemic Metal x5. You should have plenty of these from Kobold enemy drops, and can stock up on that valuable Alchemic Metal as soon as possible. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R T H R E E : M I S S I O N - The Girls' Daily Lives =============================================================================== RANK 06 BLOW - X Heal x5, Cure Jar x5, Spicy Fruit x3. My Levels: Edge and Iris 17 and Nell 15. There are more Quest Points available than you need, so you will be able to move on to the mission before completing all of them, but don't worry, as they will still be listed at the start of the next chapter provided you accepted the quests. Collect your provisions from the Guild Worker, since you start this mission in the Guild, and then visit Manna in her grocery shop. After this visit the Book Store and talk to Ella. Now head off to Dakascus Pengie Village. You might want to save first and check on your equipment. I was using Jiptus for Edge by this time though it was only on the second level, and Nell had Nymph at Level 4. The problem with Jiptus at this point is that it is very slow, though you should have been able to craft the better Cyclops weapon. And remember, this is Dakascus so you need to equip Nell and Iris with weapons that target Ice for all those Lizards. (Hint!) Make your way to the Pengie Village and talk to the Chief. After a Pengie flies in with news (Stop harshing my aura!) depart to investigate the Guardian Hill. This is marked on your map and is the room at the top right. Walk back to the entrance to the village and then all the way right past the entrance to the other shop outside town. Keep going up through the rooms and pick any chests if have not already been up here. Once you reach Guardian Hill there is a healing place, so you know what happens next! o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - STONE EMPEROR | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Dakascus | | Protections: Special, Status (Double) | | Weakness: Ice | | Skills: Cliff Slicer - one, Teraflame -| | all | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------o Cliff Slicer does around 40 HP damage to one, and the SE self heals for each round for around 250 HP. Teraflame will hurt for about 30 HP each. Well, of course, you have Ice weapons so building up to a Burst should not be too hard. Iris can lower his Spirit and Power with her Jiptus summon just to be on the safe side. Use Death Call (a Create Life skill) with Edge's Jiptus to assist in building the gauge with its timed attacks. If you have "Block" on some equipment this will protect you from his physical attacks. Soul Eater can inflict over 4000 damage when in Burst Mode and the battle should be over after a couple of burst chains. After the battle you will be back in the Pengie Village, so speak to the Chief once more, and you will receive the Crystart recipe for Manna. You can stay to complete any field bonus not yet achieved or just return to town and report back to Manna to complete this chapter, and after this Manna's shop will now sell Crystart. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R F O U R ...................................................C04 =============================================================================== o----------------------------------o | Quests - Target Points 900 | | Rank - 06 BLOW (2600) | |----------------------------------| | Cleaning The Castle 200 points | | Disorderly Time 200 points | | Lost Kuu 150 points | | Lying Grandpa 100 points | | Lying Grandpa, Again 150 points | | Subcontract Work 100 points | | Unsatisfied Beastmen 150 points | o----------------------------------o. o AREAS OPENED IN THIS CHAPTER - Grand Gardens of Ishtar - automatic - Underground and Squawk Village of the Ancient Castle of Grimoire - with Castle Key - From Bow to Wow shop in Posporia opens its doors - North Ruins opens up in Posporia during the Mission. o MANA/BLADES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Siren (Nell Blade) [Optional - found at Sound Hill in Ishtar] (See the section on Ishtar for details) o RECIPES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Bangle [Chest - Ishtar 2nd level Terrace N] - Book of Prophecy [Quest reward - Bridgetop Duel] - Cursed Doll [Chest - Ishtar Woofer Village] - Cute Clothes [Quest reward - Cleaning the Castle] - Demon Pot [Grimoire Field Bonus 7000 points reward] - Demonic Book Recipe [Alchemy level 5 - bookshelf in Grimoire Library, Devil Aisle] - Gauntlet [From Bow to Wow Posporia] - Globe Recipe [Alchemy Level 6 - see globe in Tavern room to the right] - Gong [Find - Squawk Village chest] - Holy Battleaxe [Alchemy Level 6 - first metal plate at Ishtar Sky Gardens Entrance] - Holy Stone [Quest reward - Disorderly Time] - Large Explosive [Buy from Antique Shop Gee in Squawk Village] - Legendary Shield [Alchemy Level 5 - shield on wall in Grimoire Library, Weapons Aisle - the room where you found the Castle Key] - Medium Alchemy Staff [Quest reward - Lying Grandpa] - Magic Bell [Quest reward - Lost Kuu] - Sage Stone [Mission reward] ??? o ALCHEMY LEVELS OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Alchemy Level 5 - Alchemy Level 6 - possible, though you may not achieve this until Chapter 5.

King Tuna can be caught in the pond in Ishtar on your first visit. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R F O U R : W A L K T H R O U G H =============================================================================== There is a lot to do in this chapter, with many quests and new places to explore. =============== Visit the Guild =============== Start as usual by visiting the Guild and completing any quests left over from the previous chapter. The Grand Gardens of Ishtar is now open. ====== Quests ====== Funan wants two Joker Fish, Yach want a Laughing Shroom, There will be a quest to slay Shadow Girls in Grimoire, another from Pamela, and a fish dish is required by Manna. These initial quests do not involve Ishtar directly so you could put off visiting there until there are some specific Ishtar quests. The Rose Thorn quest from Eva can be completed early on as you will have a Rose as the reward from Winna's quest in the last chapter. Don't worry about using up your only Rose as you will be able to find many more in Ishtar, eventually. I suggest doing as many other quests as possible before going to Ishtar, and if you wait a while you will see the quest: Disorderly Time, which gives you a good reason for entering Ishtar. =============== Grimoire Quests =============== There are a few of these so take them all, and on the way to the Scripture Library visit Yach and complete his quest. Kettle Spirits and the Shadow Girls are found on Floor 2 on the way to the Library for Pamela's quest. You will also be able to visit the Squawk Village during this visit, since you will receive the Castle Key during the cleaning of the cobwebs task. You can also fish for two Joker fish when you reach the Squawk village in Grimoire, and thus complete another quest! ======================== Alchemy - Before Ishtar! ======================== The Punislayer weapon can be made from the Slash Rapier, and this is useful for Nell when going after Puni bosses of which there are quite a few. After visiting the new areas there will be many more recipes to craft. You can make Broiled Fish using the Joker Fish from Grimoire pond. After collecting Posporia Cotton in Kuma territory chest you can make Posporia Cloth. A word of warning: although one of the ingredients is Rainbow Feather (and you should have at least one of these by now after fighting Harpies, DON'T waste it on the Cloth since this is an item and has a set property of Guts.) With the Posporia Cloth you can make the weapon Ice Blade for Edge (a derived recipe from Magic Battleaxe - the Cyclops). After Grimoire Underground has been explored you can also make the Lance Rocket for Nell, using the Brilliant Stone you found there. (It's a recipe derived from the Slash Rapier.) This is useful since the Stone allows you to add the property "Experience Bonus" and this will help Nell to catch up levels with the other two, at least, it will once you have her Blade that allows her to equip this weapon. (You will soon get the recipe for Brilliant Stone so don't worry about using this one.) If you picked up an enemy drop in Grimoire, you should have a Wandering Armor item and can make the Mushroom Armour for Edge which protects him from Status Effects. Make Ravissan for Nell, and with this you can make the Black Bustier using the Pendelook found in Grimoire underground. You can also try crafting the Rosen Maiden after receiving the Devil's Panties reward for the Dinner quest, and use an alternative to the Rose for the first ingredient instead, although you may wish to wait until you have been to Ishtar and find lots of Roses. If you have Posporia Cotton you can make Nurse Style costume which protects against Status Effects. Also, using Amethyst Flower as the first ingredient, and Black Bustier for the second you can make Maid Dress (with the Angel's Slip from Eva's beautiful Roses quest) With all this crafting Iris should gain another Alchemy Level. (Oh and don't worry about using up some of these items because the useful shop in Posporia is now open where you can buy plenty of Goat Milk, Cheese, Cotton and Bear Pelts.) ============== Ishtar Quests ============= When the Disorderly Time quest appears, take this, and the quest from Earl for the Altena Soul. Many enemies in Ishtar are weak to electricity, and some to Fire, so equip yourself to target these weakness. The Cyclops is a good weapon for Edge if you are using Jiptus, or the Stratos Sword for Normal Blades. Nell can use Gurgu's Cane for Nymph, and if Iris stays with the Gearshaft then you have every eventuality covered! Having left this for a while and completed many other quests first, my team were at Level 19/18, and all that was left were repeated quests or Not Yets! Time to head for Ishtar. During this first visit there is a lot you can do, despite not having access to many parts of the area. You can fish, cut grass and jump a lot for the Field Bonus, collect or buy Altena Souls for Earl's quest, as well as completing the Disorderly Time quest. During this first quest to Ishtar you can also find the Siren Mana at Sound Hill. Even if you return to Ishtar you cannot alter the Lithographs and so you cannot change anything in the Gardens during this chapter. However, you CAN access Sound Hill and defeat a couple of enemies to find another Mana and new Blades for Nell. These are very useful to obtain as soon as possible since they allow Nell to steal items and turn enemies into a treat. Abuse this skill! See the section on Ishtar for full details of this (optional) encounter. ==================== Alchemy After Ishtar ==================== Mana Items and Ingredients After Ishtar using one Pendelook you can make Magic Silver Ingot using Glansen Ore instead of Legien for Alchemic Metal, then Pendelook and MSW. Cure Jar can be made now you have a supply of Concentrated Honey, and Brilliant Stone. Weapons Sybyl's Book can be made with the Magician's Book, Altena Soul and Zettel. Jyoya can be crafted for Nell. You can make the Caduceus after completing the first quest for Grandpa and receiving the Medium Alchemy Staff recipe. Necronomicon can be made, and once you have Chaos Candy (from Nell's Trick or Treat with Siren) make Rectangle Bread. If you complete Lost Kuu quest you can make your own Funnybell from the recipe rewarded for this quest. Armor Craft Rosen Maiden using the Roses you brought back from Ishtar. Make Funky Overalls with a substitute for the Frontier Headband providing you found (or have made) the Black Belt. (Note that this armour for Edge defends against Special attacks). Make Idol Costume for Nell. After getting the reward of a Holy Stone recipe for completing Disorderly Time you can now make Brilliant Stone, and with one of these Violetta can be made using the Brilliant Stone as a substitute for Pentagle. Make Metal Hauberk and change the first ingredient to Magic Silver Ingot and you get Silver Cuirass. This is also useful armor as it protects against status effects and can have AutoHeal on it as well. Nell and Edge can both equip this. Accessories Now for accessories, you can finally craft the Healing Ankh using the Healing Necklace as the first item. Thorn Gauntlet can be made with a Rose Thorn. Voodoo Doll can be crafted and then used to make Vasilissa's Doll (provided you have a Pendelook left over and a Chatter Flower.) You can also make the Flame Bangle, and if you have enough Brilliant Stones check out the recipes for the Ice and Thunder Bangles as well, though they require ingredients you don't yet possess. Craft Paw Gloves and the derived item, Black Belt, starting with Black Liquid. All this alchemy will raise Iris' level again to Level 6. =========== Guild Again =========== Report back to Anna after completing the Ishtar quest and Lost Kuu quest and Lying Grandpa quests should appear. If you have heeded my warning to make lots of Steak, you might be lucky to see another Eva quest and can dash to the Tavern, give her the Steak and the Altena Soul to Earl at the same time. Now for the Kuu/Grandpa quests. Be aware that if you had a Quest Points quest left over from the last Chapter you could be heading for the mission if you complete another couple of quests. If you want to wait until more appear then do some non quest points ones. I did this and then Unsatisfied Beastmen and Lying Grandpa Again, appeared. This meant I could accept all these quests even though I wouldn't be able to complete them all in this chapter. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R F O U R - Q U E S T S : R A I D E R R A N K : O 6 =============================================================================== N O R M A L Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLEANING THE CASTLE Client : Pamela, Grimoire Library Objective: Talk to Anna and then remove the Spider Webs in the Library Area Rank : 06 C Reward : 200 Quest Points, Cute Clothes x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel After talking to Anna walk all the way to the Library in Grimoire and talk to Pamela. Edge shows you what to do..simply sword slash the cobwebs. Since this is also a requirement for a Field Bonus make sure to complete the job! You start in Devil Aisle where there are two, and then walk right to Magic Aisle room where there are 4. Then go up the ladder and into the left hand room, Weapons Isle, where there are 5 cobwebs. Now, after you slash the two at the right you will find a brown bag and the Castle Key, and Edge will say you can stop. Don't do so if you want the Field bonus, and carry on and slash all cobwebs in that room before speaking to Pamela again. Now return to 1F Landing and walk right down the East Corridor and through to the Outer Hall. When you arrive at the door there will be a scene and you now have access to the Underground of the Ancient Castle of Grimoire, (to give it it's proper title!) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DISORDERLY TIME Client : Anna Objective: Investigate the history of Ishtar Rank : 06 C Reward : 200 Quest Points, Holy Stone x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel *See the separate section on Ishtar for a more detailed walkthrough.* Speak to Anna first. According to Winna (who interrupts to give you a dull lecture), there are two types of Lithographs> Red and Blue and you must copy the inscriptions. All you have to do is approach them both and a scene will unfold. Examine two Lithographs in Ishtar to obtain these messages: "light the western sun" and "snuff the eastern sun". The first one is marked on your Ishtar map and is reached from the Woofer Village. Simply take the first teleporter down from the entrance to the gardens and then walk to the right and down the path that takes you directly to the Lithograph. You don't have to leave the room where the villagers will chat and the shop can be found. Then you have a long walk, heading through a number of rooms, all the way to the right until you reach a grassy area. Here you will find the fishing pond and you can walk across the water using the rocks and keep on the path to find the second Lithograph. After you're done, just spend some time fishing for Scallops until the time is up. In fact you CAN catch a King Tuna at this fishing spot if you are lucky. You can also take the teleporter to Sound Hill and defeat the boss there to obtain the Siren Mana. Report back to Anna when you return to Zey Meruze. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LOST KUU Client : Anna Objective: Search for Kuu who is lost in Valtessa Rank : 06 C Reward : Quest Points 150, Magic Bell x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel Speak to Anna and then Papal at the Fountain and finally head out to Valtessa. Check the map to see information on the first map so it appears that you don't need to head out to the Forest Depths, but in fact when you walk to the turning to the Depths you will find his backpack. Now switch maps and you are informed that he IS in the Depths after all. (Surprise, surprise.) Ignore the side rooms and make your way north. When you reach the large room second from the last room, walk all the way to the right (this is the area with the low stone walls), and then up into the final room that has two chests. There he is!. The mist will come down after the scene, and that's that. You next have control of Edge just in front of the Guild. The quest is not completed until you report back to Anna. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LYING GRANDPA Client : Gramps, Fountain Area Objective: Get 10 Beast Fangs Rank : 06 C Reward : Quest Points 100, Medium Alchemy Staff x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel Give 10 Beast Fangs to the old man standing by the fountain. You should have plenty to spare and the rewards are good. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LYING GRANDPA, AGAIN Client : Gramps Objective: Bring him 1 Dragon Bone Rank : 06 C Reward : Quest Points 150, Jawbreaker Candy x7 Unable to Cancel This quest is dependent on you having completed the first Lying Grandpa quest. You will have plenty of Dragon Bones to spare either from the reward for the Dark Wing Collection Flaming Joker quests, or drops from Lizard Warriors and Wizards in Dakascus. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUBCONTRACT WORK Client : Earl, Tavern Objective: Give him an Altena Soul (from Ishtar) Rank : 06 C Reward : Quest Points 100 Quest Point, Goat Cheese x5 Unable to Cancel Simply find or buy one in Ishtar and take it to him. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- UNSATISFIED BEASTMEN Client : Cerber, Cerber's House, Beastmen: Quarters Objective: Visit Cerber and then investigate complaints in Posporia Rank : 06 C Reward : Quest Points 150, Silver Cuirass x1 Unable to Cancel Visit Cerber and listen to him. Then speak to him again and this time he will tell you who he wants you to visit and talk with: The Fairy and Kuma Generals and the Woofer merchant in Posporia. The Merchant (Bow Won) is in the Neutral Baths area, which is the room to the right of the Middle Battlegrounds, and the fastest way to the other two is to take one of the cannons from the Kuma Cannon east or west and this will deposit you near the Fairy Village. Speak to the General at the top of the green steps and then take the cannon back to the Kuma area close to the Kuma village. The General will be just in front of the Chief's house. (This can be a good time to complete the field bonus of not entering any battles, if you have no Combat Quests left.) When you have spoken to all three return and report back to Cerber, since this quest is not completed until you do that. C O M B A T Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BRIDGETOP DUEL Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: 06 B Rank : Defeat the Jagged Bear Reward : 7000 Cole, Book of Prophecy x1 Recipe This quest will only appear after you have completed a few other quests. You will see information on the map saying that the bear is on a Bridge in central Posporia, so it's just a matter of finding the correct bridge. In fact it is the bridge leading to the east from the fishing spot at Fairy Fort East. As Phenyl tells you: it's just a Bear! o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - JAGGED BEAR | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Posporia | | Protections: Ice | | Weakness: Beast | | Skills: Hug and Crush (Spirit down) | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------o It is slow, and although its ordinary attack can inflict around 80 HP damage, (which is a lot when your team's HP only averages around double that), he is easy enough to defeat with any Blades and any attacks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DARK WING COLLECTION Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Slay Grimoire Shadow Girls. 6 groups required Rank : 06 C Reward : 3000 Cole, Dragon Bone x5 * Repeatable * Purple Monsters These enemies are found in the Inner Centre/Corridor on floor 2F. They are accompanied by Kettle Spirits so you can literally kill two birds with one stone...well, one bird, two enemies and two quests at once! Variable numbers - if 8 groups then 8 Bones!, and when there were 5 groups the reward was Jawbreaker Candy x10, with the cash. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- KUMA INFILTRATION Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Slay Posporia Bear Monster. 5 groups needed Rank : 06 D Reward : 6000 Cole, Needle Candy x1 (weapon) *Purple monsters You are told to protect the fairies, so you know where to find the bears: in Fairy Territory. I found them in the Western Fairy Forest south of the village. However, you may find that you cannot access this part of the map directly as the Fairies block the normal routes. If you head north to the Kuma Territory you can take the Cannon from Kuma Cannon East or West, and this will deposit you at the Fairy Fort East or West entrance. The bears come in groups of two or three with a Bear, Owlbear and/or Kobold Fighter. If you are using Jiptus, poison with Zombie Rain, is an effective attack against them, or Iris can make them all fall asleep. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- STRANGE KETTLE Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat Kettle Spirit x8 Rank : 06 C Reward : 4000 Cole, Long Pochy x6/Concentrated Honey x5 (varies on repeats) * Repeatable You can find these in Grimoire 1F inside blue enemies, and in purple enemies on 2F which you need for the Dark Wing Collection quest. In later quests they are easily found in Ishtar, 2nd Level Terrace N. F E T C H Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEAUTIFUL ROSES Client : Eva, Tavern Objective: Take her Rose Thorn x1 Rank : 06 B Reward : Angel's Slip x1, Black Hat x2 Make this from the Kunai Recipe (received when you completed the Unseen Weep quests) using the Rose (from Winna's quest, or gathered from Ishtar) as the first item. Original Recipe: Derived from Kunai Items Needed: Rose o Zuftuff Water/Bitter Grape/Shroom Juice Polishing Powder ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FLAMING JOKER FISH Client : Funan, Westbridge Objective: Give him Joker Fish x2 (x4) Rank : 06 B Reward : (???) Tiger Blowfish x2, Dragon Bone x8/Joker Fish x2 Long Pochy 11/ Jawbreaker Candy x10 * Repeatable Fish for these at the Squawk Village as soon as you gain access to the pond. These fish are hard to catch as the bar is very small and the margin for error large. Keep trying until you catch two for Funan, and at least two for yourself (for Manna's Dinner quest). If you keep fishing you may also be able to catch Demon Squid which are needed for a later Funan quest. Strange quest this one, when you get given back the two fish you gave him plus additional items in repeated quests. It always shows a ???? for the first item, but it is always 2 Fish, it's just the second part of the reward that changes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HAPPY GREETINGS Client : Yach, General Store Objective: Give him 1 Laughing Shroom Rank : 06 D Reward : 7000 Cole, Black Liquid x1 These are found as a quest reward for Greentail Bandits so you should have at least two. You can also cut grass for these and find them in bags in Ishtar. (And they are found in bags in Nature's Prison in UG Grimoire.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HELPING MAKE DINNER Client : Manna, Grocery Store Objective: Take her Broiled Fish x2 Rank : 06 B Reward : Devil's Panties x2, Long Pochy x7 This is why you needed an extra two fish from Grimoire pond, because Manna wants TWO Broiled Fish. Make these using fish in the Flame Broiled Dish recipe. Original Recipe: Derived from Flame Broiled Dish Items Needed: o Lake Fish/Unihorn/Bonita o Joker Fish/King Tuna Salt =============================================================================== C H A P T E R F O U R : M I S S I O N - A Man's Request =============================================================================== Raider Rank FLURRY 07 - Cure Jar x5, Nectar x5, Crunchy Fruit x3. Whichever quest you complete to raise your rank, a scene will start with Crowley. He asks you to go to Posporia, Kuma Territory. You can now go back to the Guild and pick up your ranked up items and save as well if you need to, before setting out for Kuma Territory. Check the map in Posporia and you'll see a red ! at an area you haven't yet explored. This is the place where a Kuma blocked your path earlier. When you arrive at the Middle Battlegrounds Alvero will turn up for a fight. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - ALVERO 2 | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Posporia | | Protections: Special/Status Double | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Twin Blade X (x3| timed - one | | Thunder Blade - one | | Drop: None | o----------------------------------------o I had Nell with Siren (having only just got it), and Edge with Jiptus to complete his final level for that Blade, but you would might do better with different Blades, though at least this has Death Calls, which is helpful for increasing the Burst Gauge. The other awkward thing for this battle, is that you have no chance to increase your Skill Level, so that's the first thing to think about. Iris can reduce his Power and Spirit with Jiptus as usual, but there's not much you can do about his timed attacks. He has Thunder Blade which targets one for about 30-40 HP and Twin Blade also randomly targets one person each time it activates. I managed to get in two Soul Bursts in one Burst Chain so he was nearly out of HP by the end of that. He can summon the Twin Blade X attack again even with one card left from the last. It was fun seeing Team Kobold flatten him for the final attack, but they didn't manage to steal anything despite a few attempts. After a short scene, continue on your way to the red mark. Walk up across the bridge and head right through Kuma Fort East, then up the steps to the left and follow the path right and then left and across the wooden bridge, until you reach the East Gate. Once through here go up the steps into the house (Kuma Station East) and then up the path beside the house. This takes you to the new and previously un-visited area called the North Ruins Entrance. Fight a battle or two to raise your skill gauge and then heal up before venturing into the unknown. (Though at least you know it's going to be a boss fight.) -------- ???Ruins -------- o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - ALKANE | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Posporia ???Ruins | | Protections: Special/Status Double | | Weakness: Lightning | | Skills: Primal Ray, Armor a, Armor b | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------o This boss made me laugh the first time I saw it, as I was expecting something dinosaur like. Anyway, luckily, being a machine it is weak to lightning. You really need Nell with Nymph to heal, and as many Lightning based weapons as you can muster. Edge with his Cyclops Blade would be a good plan with Jiptus, and Nell with Funnybell. (I had Silver Cuirass for Nell, Funky Overalls and Nurse Style Armor for the other two, and they all had Speed S with Edge having Delay L .) Primal Ray is a physical attack that does not activate immediately, but will blast you all on its next turn doing anything up to 120 HP damage. This thing means serious business. Armor a (alpha I think), is a one person physical attack, that involves lots of small hits. Armor b targets everyone for around 25-30 HP. His ordinary attack will do around 80+ HP damage. Use Jiptus with Iris again, and make sure everyone is kept healed when he plans to use Primal Ray. Aside from that precaution, just manage one or two bursts with your best skills and he'll explode. This is a good fight for levelling up Blades, so it might be worth while using Siren after all. My team were at Level 21/20 for this fight. You can stay in Posporia if you want to complete any Field Bonuses or just head back to town for another (automatic) scene and the reward of Sage Stone Recipe. (Not too sure what this is.) =============================================================================== C H A P T E R F I V E ....................................................C05 =============================================================================== o----------------------------------o | Quests - Target Points 1000 | | Raider Rank: FLURRY 07 (3500) | |----------------------------------| | A Flower For You 100 points | | Broken Crystal 200 points | | Experiment And Rescue 100 points | | Follow My Cat 150 points | | Problematic Gifts 100 points | | Soldiers Never Die 100 points | | They Only Walk Away 150 points | | Three Tasks 200 points | o----------------------------------o. o AREAS OPENED IN THIS CHAPTER - Grimoire Freezer (with the Flame Barrett) - Ishtar 2nd Level South (with the Flame Barret) - Dakascus West (with the Breath of Earth) - Grimoire Squawk Treasury (duirng They Only Walk Away quest) o MANA/BLADES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Diemia - Mana of Stone (Nell Blade) [found at Earth Altar - Three Tasks quest.] - Fanatos - Mana of Evil (Edge Blade) [found after They Only Walk Away quest] o RECIPES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Aroma Material [Quest reward 'They only walk away'] - Breath of Earth [Quest item - Broken Crystal - A KEY ITEM) - Expert Alchemy Staff [Quest - Danger!

TIP Diemia gives Iris a summons which is a physical attack and you should use this against enemies which resist her magic. When you find any Pendelook make sure to keep at least one, and preferably two, and this will help to complete a quest quickly in the next chapter. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R F I V E : W A L K T H R O U G H =============================================================================== After the initial scene, return to the Workshop to save if you want. ======================== Quests and Flame Barrett ======================== There will be a large number of quests awaiting this time. Puni Brothers 2, Fallen Angels, Experiment and Rescue, Demon Squid Backlash, Mushroom Stew, New Type Sweets, and Tailor Made. You'll see that some of these involve new areas - for example, 2nd Level South, and the Grimoire Freezer. These are, of course, connected, since you needed something to melt ice in Ishtar as well as in Grimoire. Start by taking them all, and then talk to Anna to receive the Flame Barrett. Now you can melt all the ice at Ishtar as well as finding a more direct route to the Squawk Village. o Tutorial on Flame Barrett. Basically you use this directly from the sword slash command and just alter the attack using L1 or R1. Just be aware that when using the Flame thrower you cannot slash enemies or smash boxes. You could start with Grimoire as it's easier and there are some alchemy ideas you might have left finding until now. Make sure to use Nell's Treat attacks as often as possible using her Siren Blades and this way you will collect a range of items required for alchemy. ============= Ishtar Quests ============= Before setting out, complete any leftover quests from the last chapter, and you should be able to do some of the Fetch ones immediately. Check back at the Guild and you might find another quest or two. For example, Pixie Trio was now up and this helps in planning to complete a number of Ishtar related quests at once. After completing the Grimoire Freezer adventure another Ishtar quest appeared: Soldiers Never Die, together with Three Tasks and this is good news as now you have a good reason for heading to Ishtar. This need a little bit of planning, so make sure you have the 5 Black Fairy Clothes, and have checked with Anna for instructions for both the quests that involve her, as she will only talk about one at a time. =========== More Quests =========== After all these quests don't forget to report back for your rewards, and to complete the Three Tasks Quest for a new Mana. There will be no more new quests until this one has been completed (aside from repeats). Then A Flower for You, and Broken Crystal will appear. This last one is important because it gives you access to most of the rest of Dakascus. If Problematic Gifts and They Only Walk Away appear, then accept them even if you don't have the Quest Points capacity to complete them in this chapter. It will save you a lot of effort if you try to do these quests in tandem. They both require two visits to Grimoire, but the second visit of Pamela's quest deposits you back in the Library automatically, so you could just carry on from here to the Squawk Village. Then for the second visit to the Squawk Village you are also taken there automatically. ======= Alchemy ======= After completing the first raft of quests, including getting Diemia it's a good time to craft some new items and change Blades for Nell. Items Make X Heal, and then use an X Heal for the first item to make Heal All. Make Strange Gearbox. Make Brilliant Stone replacing the first item with Pendelook to make the useful Pentagle. Weapons Make Gear Blaze changing the first item to Strange Gearbox and you will get Armed Gear, a Fire based weapon for Edge. Make Gurgu's Cane switching the first ingredient for Eiche or Gash Twig, (this uses Pentagle for the final ingredient) and you will get Wisdom Cane, a staff for Nell. Make Skirnir's Staff, and then use this to make Caduceus replacing the first ingredient, and you get Hermes Staff. (You can keep the Rainbow Feather Property of Hit +2 and you'll have a staff with the full 7 hits on it.) After completing the "Flower for You' quest make the Balmung from the recipe Meyna gives you. You have had this weapon for a while, but without being able to craft it you could not add any Properties, and now you can. There are a couple of derived recipes from this one but you can't make those just yet. When you complete the Broken Crystal quest you can make the Shadow Dagger for Edge. (I like to put Deadly Toxin on this, as it can work with some bosses.) Armor Make Metal Hauberk using the Strange Gearbox as the first ingredient and you get Gear Melxe 1. (You'll see that a number of armor items require Formal Fabric which you don't yet have.) Accessories You can now make Glowing Bracelet using a Pentagle, and this gives you the useful skill of Raise. Make the M-type Auto Fan for another common skill, and Demon Pot...provided you haven't given away all your Shifty Eyes to Yach.

This is reached by heading right from the Bookshop. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BROKEN CRYSTAL Client : Anna Objective: Fix the crystals in Dakascus for the Pengie Chief Rank : 07 B Reward : Quest Points 200, Magic Kunai x1 Recipe, (Breath of Earth Recipe) Unable to Cancel Make your way to the Pengie Village and speak to the Chief. He will give you the recipe for the Breath of Earth. Make sure you buy extra Chrome Crystals if you don't have many, and then return to the Workshop and make about a dozen of these. Return to Dakascus and you are given the option to take one BoE to the Chief. Agree, and you will be at the Village in an instant. He will show you where to use it and asks you to mend all the broken crystals. This will clear the quest and you will be back at the village. Then you can continue and explore the Western part of Crystal Valley. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EXPERIMENT AND RESCUE Client : Anna Objective: Rescue someone stuck in Grimoire freezer Rank : 07 C Reward : Quest Points 100, Gearbox x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel This is easy as all you have to do it head to the right in Grimoire, after picking up the Flame Barrett from Anna before setting out. Melt the ice and then carry on going left through the door, and to the stairs. Then you can find your way up to the second floor without the long walk around the block. Then walk right and head for the red mark. This is the freezer area. Make sure to melt everything you see (for a Field Bonus) and pick up all the treasure in both the small rooms. Report back to Anna for the reward and to be told you can keep the Flame Barrett. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW MY CAT Client : Papal, Fountain Area Objective: Talk to Papal and find Gon. Rank : 07 D Reward : Quest Points 150, Joker Fish x2 Unable to Cancel This quest may not appear until Chapter 6, but it will show eventually. Speak to Papal at her usual place near the Fountain and Nell hints at what he might be doing. The plan involves finding people who might have seen him. Walk up towards the Guild and then left, heading towards Yach and Hagel's shops. You'll meet a Lady who advises you to look around the Library. Just walk towards the Scripture Library and there will be a scene. Walk back to speak to Papal again to complete the quest. Just a note: if you don't get the chest to the left of the Scripture Library now, you won't be able to access it again as the kittens will block your path. It contains a Heal Jar, so it's no big loss. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PROBLEMATIC GIFTS Client : Pamela Objective: Listen to Pamela and return 4 gifts Rank : 07 C Reward : Quest Points 100, Black Bustier x1 (armor) Walk to the Library in Grimoire, not forgetting that now you can take the short cut by heading right at the entrance and melting the ice. Pamela wants you to return some gifts, and will tell you more if you speak to her again. The gifts are from Hagel, Ewan and "this other guy, and this lady". Walk from the Workshop to the Fountain and there will be a scene with the unnamed lady, a Raider Woman. Then walk towards the Tavern and there will be another scene with the unknown Man. Finally visit Hagel in his shop and then Ewan in his room at the Scripture Library, and after this you'll be automatically back with Pamela. This can be useful if you have other Grimoire business to do, as you end this quest in the Library. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SOLDIERS NEVER DIE Client : Anna Objective: Find Gramps and the kids who are lost in Ishtar. Rank : 07 B Reward : Quest Points 100, Le Merou Cog x5 Unable to Cancel Take the teleporter from the 2nd Level North (head up the vines to the left of the Woofer Village), and use the Flame Barrett on the ice when you arrive at 2nd Level South. Walk up the path and then jump onto the left two flat metal plates and turn down the large pipe to the southwest where you will find them in a small room. That's the end of the quest aside from reporting back to Anna when you return to the Guild. You can stay in Ishtar and complete other quests, or Field Bonuses if you wish. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THEY ONLY WALK AWAY Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Investigate the Squawk Village Treasury Rank : 07 A Reward : Quest Points 150, Aroma Material x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel This is an important quest since you finally get the recipe for the Aroma Material, which is a key item for a number of recipes, and of course, you will find a new Mana. You will also find one of Iris' Idea spots in the Treasury after defeating the boss enemy providing you have reached Alchemy level 5. Make your way to the Squawk Village, and walk around the pond and up to Squawk Village North and finally head up the grass to the Treasury where there will be a short scene. Now you have to return to Zey Meruze and speak to Grandpa at the Fountain. Speak to him again when you are ready, and you will be back at the Treasury and in a battle with no more chance to prepare. Note that since you arrive here without a chance to raise the skill gauge you can ensure that you have a few added points from the previous trip to the Treasury, and these will remain on your gauge, giving you an advantage. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - FATEBRINGER | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Squawk Treasury, Grimoire | | Protections: Special/Status Double | | Weakness: Unholy, Electricity | | Skills: Gate (summons 2 Living Swords) | | - timed attack, Life Drain | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------o At the start of the battle Fatebringer will cast "Gate", which is a timed spell so he will continue to summon Swords during the battle. These Living Swords are double defended against Special Skills, weak to Electricity and also Unholy class. The swords are fast can can use Shadow's End which is a multiple attack on one. Their normal attacks do around 30 HP damage, and as soon as one is summoned it will attack you. However, just ignore these once you gain a Burst and hit the Fatebringer with all you've got: preferably Edge with Soul Burst and you can just about kill him in one round. As soon as Fatebringer is destroyed the swords will disappear. With the correct Blades and equipment this is an easy battle to win. Nell with Siren has a weapon, Jyoya, that targets Unholy. The Kobold Hero is very effective in this battle if Nell has Siren equipped. Also make sure to have Edge with Jiptus and the Lightning weapon, Cyclops. Iris had the Hermes Staff by this point in the game which gives her more magic power. My team were at Level 23/22 for this battle. The Mana of Evil, Fanatos, is your reward, and another Blade for Edge together with the Talisman weapon. Now, don't be too quick to leave, as there is a new area to explore and chests to open. You can also find your first Blue Pearl in a brown bag with a bit of luck as well as the recipe for the Living Uni. When you are done, report back to the Guild as usual. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THREE TASKS Client : Anna Objective: Undertake three tasks for Noella. Rank : 07 B Reward : 200 Quest Points, Superior Medicine x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel The second of these tasks involves taking a message to the Woofer Chief in the Village at Ishtar, so plan your Ishtar visits to include this quest when you're ready. You will also meet Noella, the Guild Master for the first time when you receive instructions for the quest from Anna. First she wants Brilliant Stone, so give her one: it's simple enough as she is standing next to Anna. Next, to take a trip to Ishtar. Again, this is simple enough to complete as all you need to do is call in on the Chief at the Woofer Village, and talk to him. Then return to the Guild to report to Noella for the third task, which involves defeating a Kobold at the Altar of Earth in Posporia. Since a Kobold is a beast I equipped Edge with Plua and the Wind Slicer, though this is not the best set-up for the second battle. In fact you need Ice weapons and Nell equipped with Nymph Blade. Now, you cannot go through directly to the Kuma area, as the guy is back blocking the route, so take either of the Fairy Cannons to land close to the Kuma Fort, and make your way to the Altar from there. The West Cannon (two rooms down from the Middle Battlegrounds, will take you closest to the Altar, and there is a red mark to help you locate it. When your have made your way to the top of the mountain path, jump from block to block to reach the Altar. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - Kobold Fighter x3 | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Altar of Earth, Posporia | | Protections: None | | Weakness: Beast | | Skills: | | Drops: Tufts | o----------------------------------------o This is very easy and with one burst, which you can achieve before any of them even have a chance to attack, they will be history. Now the real battle starts! o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - ROCKWELL | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Altar of Earth, Posporia | | Protections: Special Double, Physical | | Weakness: Dragon, Ice | | Skills: Mind's Eye (lock on one) | | Calamity (fire - all) | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------o His normal attack did around 60-70 HP damage to one, but with Iris equipped with her trusty Ice weapon, the Gearshaft, and Nell knocking him back with Kobold Hero, he only had one turn before we had the first Burst Chain. Summon Nymph for effective damage. You would probably be better off with Nell using Nymph with the Witch Staff (Ice) and her Frozen Shard attack, and Edge with Jiptus and the Ice Blade, but it really doesn't matter too much. Calamity will inflict a fair degree of damage to everyone but nothing too disastrous and I didn't need to heal once in this battle. (Levels were 22/21) Now you receive a new Mana - Diemia, a new Blade for Nell and the weapon Lancelot, and will be automatically whisked back to the Guild, where you enter the "back room" for the first time. C O M B A T Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DANGER! PIXIE TRIO Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Pixie Trio in Ishtar Rank : 07 D Reward : 12000 Cole, Expert Alchemy Staff x1 Recipe These are found on the 2nd Level Terrace North, to the right of the Woofer Village. This is the top small room at the far right of the map, reached when you go across the small log bridge to the right of the first main grassy room. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - AMBER | |----------------------------------------| | Location: 2nd Level Terrace N Ishtar | | Protections: Special Double, Magic | | Weakness: Electricity | | Skills:Healing Echo (timed heals all) | | Dancing Edge, Star Drop | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------o o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - GROVE | |----------------------------------------| | Location: 2nd Level Terrace N Ishtar | | Protections: Special Double, Physical | | Weakness: Ice | | Skills: Wood Stomp (timed) Sword Dance | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------o o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - ECHO | |----------------------------------------| | Location: 2nd Level Terrace N Ishtar | | Protections: Special Double, Physical | | Weakness: Fire | | Skills: Healing Echo (timed heals all) | | Mind Bomb - sleep | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------o The key to having an easy time in this battle is to ensure that everyone has the best armor equipped with resistance to Status Effects, and that you have a weapon with Ice, Fire and Electricity to target each of their weaknesses. Then you can concentrate on destroying them one by one. Obviously it would be easier if Nell is equipped with Nymph Blades, but it's possible with any set up if you are careful. I had Nell with Siren and Edge with Normal Blades. Amber heals them all for 600 or so HP. Dancing Edge is a timed attack against one and Star Drop (time attack blue bar) attacks one with Defense Down effect. Her Magic resistance means that only Edge or Nell's physical lightning attack will target the weakness and not any magic. Also Iris's Jiptus effect won't be so strong as that is also a magic attack. Grove's Wood Stomp is a timed attack, and Sword Dance reduces defense. Echo uses Mind Bomb and Healing Echo. But at least both of these can be effected by Jiptus and all magic attacks. Their normal attacks do around 35 HP damage. I started using Siren with Iris and they were immune...Use Jiptus with Iris which decreases the amount they can heal each other by about half, so it's worth while doing this. Target them one at a time when you reach the Burst Gauge, and of course, target their weaknesses to help build the gauge. Nell used Tinder Flux to good effect. In the end I finished off Grove first since Iris could do a lot of damage with her ice attacks. I ended up with Amber as the final one to defeat, but that depends on your Blades set up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FALLEN ANGELS Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Slay Ishtar Fallen Angels. 7 groups Rank : 07 D Reward : 4700 Cole, Le Merou Cog x13 * Repeatable * Purple Monsters Defeat 7/8 groups of Fallen Angels found on the eastern 2nd Level Terrace North past the "garden" room. You will probably have to return a second time to kill enough of these. Head right from Woofer village to find them in groups of two or three, consisting of Marquis, Power, Living Armour and Sword Geist. You can do this quest at the same time as the Pixie Trio one as they are found in the same area. (You might want Edge's Normal Blades for this quest as they are all Undead and you can use Buster Drive to great effect.) Smaller numbers of groups, such as 5, will yield slightly less rewards: 4500 Cole, and 8 Le Merou Cog. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NEARING DARKNESS Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Slay Darkness in Ishtar: 5/7 groups Rank : 07 C Reward : Worn Weapon x5, 80000 Cole * Purple Monsters * Repeatable 4x You can find these around 2nd Level Terrace N, but they are in the area up the vines in the village and then heading left towards the teleporter to 2nd Level Terrace S. They are purple and all Unholy monsters: Death Knights, Dragon Zombies, Shadowgirl, and Sword Geist. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PUNI BROTHERS 2! Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Puni Brothers! In Valtessa. Rank : 07 B Reward : 8000 Cole, Puni Gummy x6 o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - PUNI BROTHERS 2 Taro, Kichi,Jiro| |----------------------------------------| | Location: Valtessa Fishing Spot | | Protections: Special Double | | Weakness: None | | Skills: | o----------------------------------------o They are in the same place as before (the fishing spot), and although you might think about using Nell's Normal Blades and her Punislayer weapon you could also use this trip to Valtessa to collect some Puni Gummy treats for another quest, and so equip the Siren Blades instead. This time, after a few battles where there were no Punis to turn into treats on the way, I had a skill gauge of 8 at the start of the battle, and after Edge slapped them all with Dancing Edge and Nell with Kobold Hero I managed to get a burst before they even had a turn, and that was the end of them! So, really you can't fail whatever attacks you use. (My team were at level 22/21) And, of course, once you claim the reward you should have more than enough Puni Gummies for for the New Type Sweets quest. F E T C H Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DEMON SQUID BACKLASH Client : Funan, Westbridge Objective: Give him 2 Demon Squid Rank : 07 C Reward : Fish Sword x1 Recipe, Chatter Flower You fish for these in Grimoire, Squawks Village Pond. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MUSHROOM STEW Client : Manna, Grocery Store Objective: Take her Fungushroom x1 Rank : 07 C Reward : Rainbow Feather x2, Pendelook x6 You will have plenty of these just in the normal course of events. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NEW TYPE SWEETS Client : Ella, Rio Book Store Objective: Give her 7 Puni Gummy Rank : 07 C Reward : Strange Slab x4, Bucket Cookie x1 (weapon) You need to use Nell's Siren Blades Trick or Treat attack to accumulate these from...you've guessed it, Punis. She finds it harder to make this attack on stronger or magic resistant enemies, but the average Puni won't be a problem. Equip the Siren Blades on your way to defeat the Puni Brothers in Valtessa and you can complete this quest at the same time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TAILOR MADE Client : Gregor, 2nd level South, Ishtar Objective: Take him Black Fairy Clothes x5/3 Rank : 07 B Reward : 3000 Cole, Le Merou Cog x10 + Repeatable Note that you must first have the Flame Barrett (given to you by Anna for the Experiment and Rescue Quest) and make FIVE sets of clothes. (In another game it was only three, but I think this may have been for a repeat quest, anyway, check the precise number required before starting out.) This is actually quite an annoying little quest because you may have to hike to Posporia and buy some more Fairy Clothes to use for the Black Fairy Clothes recipe. You also need 5 Black Hats, and 5 Shroom Juice, and to make enough Shroom Juice you need MSW. And despite the fact that I KNOW I never can have enough Melty Spring Water, I always run out of it at about this point in the game. So, what might appear to be a simple quest could involve trips to three Alterworlds instead of just one. Note that it is repeatable as well, so if you plan to take it on again, make sure to stock up on all the necessary ingredients. When you have the items take the teleporter from the 2nd Level North (heading up the vines from the Woofer Village and then left along the pipe, and follow the only path) to the 2nd Level South, and flame the ice blocks. Walk to the top of the path and you will find Gregor standing at the left of the next teleporter. He is always at the same place, and there will be many more quests for Gregor. Original Recipe: Derived from Fairy Clothes Items Needed: Fairy Clothes Black Hat o Concentrated Honey/Goat Milk/Shroom Juice =============================================================================== C H A P T E R F I V E : M I S S I O N - Spellbound Lineage =============================================================================== There is a scene in Valtessa showing the location of the next Gem at the far end of the first map, and whatever quest you were on, wherever you were, you'll be back in the Guild, and then visiting Ewan in the Scripture Library. You finally gain control of Edge again outside the Library with instructions to go to Valtessa. Make your way to the top north room: Guardian Hill. If you haven't already got the Field Bonus for harvesting three seeds, you could take a detour to do that on the way. Just wander around a bit and increase your skill gauge for free while you wait for the seeds. When you reach the final room there will be the usual healing place, just in front of the bridge. I used Diemia for Nell and Jiptus for Edge with Nell having the Hermes Staff. You're better off with Nymph for Nell, since the Stone Emperor resists physical attacks, and make sure to equip the Cyclops weapon for Edge which is Electricity based. If you don't do this, then you will find it harder to build up the burst gauge. o------------------------------------------------------o | BOSS - STONE EMPEROR (AGAIN!) | |------------------------------------------------------| | Location: Guardian Hill, Valtessa | | Protections: Special, Status Double, Physical Resist | | Weakness: Electricity | | Skills: Tempest - all, Judgement (timed) - all | | Drops: None | o------------------------------------------------------o Tempest does around 30 HP damage to all, and he self heals every turn, sometimes even twice. Judgement looks worse than it is, and does around HP damage to each although it weakens defense. (This is one reason why Nymph is much better for Nell as you can use Sanctuary to heal this status effect as well as healing everyone with her timed items skills.) His normal physical attack does around 50 HP damage. Armour Break from Nell can lower his defense, and Iris can use Diemia to knock him back, and Jiptus to decrease his spirit and power, but these attacks don't help much to fill the gauge, so make sure that Edge has his Cyclops equipped with a high hit ratio to target the Emperor's weakness. It's surprising how effective Delay can be on a weapon to push back his attack card and allow for a burst to be reached, thus effectively preventing him from attacking by stunning him. It took two bursts using Soul Burst with Edge to defeat him. Now there will be a scene and another battle that you can't win, in fact you may not even get a chance to act. After more events, the chapter ends. Depending on how many quests you completed in this chapter Levels should be at around 23/24 by the end. NOTES Without the best equipment and Cyclops equipped to Jiptus Blades you may find that this battle is more of a challenge than I suggest, and it might take up to four bursts to defeat the Stone Emperor. Don't forget that you can use Nell's Nymph blades to boost hits and power as well as for healing. Ensure you use Jiptus to lessen Stone Emperor's power and the effects of his self healing, and repeat this summons when the effect wears off. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R S I X .......................................................C06 =============================================================================== o----------------------------------o | Quests - Target Points 1000 | | RANK 08 Foehn (4500) | |----------------------------------| | Amnesiac Angel 200 points | | Celestial Rookery 100 points | | Courage Once More 150 points | | Giant Exploration 200 points | | Love Letter 150 points | | N33d t0 f1x cl0ck 200 points | | Oblivion 100 points | | Want Tasty Meat 100 points | o----------------------------------o. o AREAS OPENED IN THIS CHAPTER - Giant Tree in Posporia - Squawk Treasury, Grimoire - All of Grimoire - Crystal Valley Dakascus West (possible to explore in Chapter Five) - Crystal Valley Celestial Rookery (quest - Celestial Rookery) - All of Ishtar o MANA/BLADES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Faustus - Mama of Illusion (Nell Blade) [Found in quest - Celestial Rookery] o RECIPES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Angel Wings [Alchemy Level 8 - see angel statue on Eastbridge in Z.M.] - Crystal?

If you accept and cancel rubbish quests such as Yach's Shifty Eye, then this will usually trigger other quests to appear. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R S I X : W A L K T H R O U G H =============================================================================== RANK 08 FOEHN - Heal All x5, Divine Shield x3, Tasteless Fruit x3. ================== The World Expands! ================== Things start to get a little more complex now, since you will not have been able to complete all the "quest point" quests from the last chapter that required the Raider Rank of 07, and may have some to do now, with that rank. If that is the case then you will have to check back to the list of quests in the previous chapter. That also means that the rewards that you could have obtained then, and some exploring, may only be possible now. Also some quests that are listed for this Raider Rank did not appear until the next chapter for me, but this might not be so in your game. Anyhow, that's my excuse if things are not exactly where or when you might expect them to be, and despite playing two games, I am still not altogether certain exactly in which order some quests will first appear. It is also harder to suggest groupings for quests, but by now you will know how to manage this. Once you have access to nearly all areas of the Alterworlds you will have many recipes and many new ingredients. This means that you can now start to experiment more with alternative ingredients to improve older items, and balance your preferred equipment set up for each party member. Another complication is that many of the new recipes require rare or difficult to make items. For example: the accessory Aroma Material needs Brilliant Stone, Pentagle, Healing Bracelet and Salt. The first and last two items use Chrome Crystals which need to be gathered in Dakascus, (not too much of a problem,) and Salt is cheap and easy to buy from Manna, but the Healing Bracelet requires another rare healing item which you don't have possess. So my general advice is: keep crafting and checking for anything uncrafted or with alternatives for the first ingredient. You should be able to raise Iris's alchemy level to the maximum towards the end of the chapter, especially since after getting the Hammer you will have access to every area in every Alterworld except for Dakascus North. ====== Quests ====== There will be a whole heap of quests on the board at the start of this chapter. Follow my Cat will be here if you didn't get it in the last chapter...which I didn't. Lizards Four in Ishtar, and another from Gregor in Ishtar. The Angels one will also be in Ishtar. Wait until the "N33d t0 fIx cl0ck" quest appears and then you can complete a few Ishtar quests at the same time. This quest also gives you the Hammer which will enable access to parts you couldn't reach before. Golden Pig is a Valtessa quest, and there's one in Squawk Village, and another in Posporia. The Squawk one is useful as you can also get a recipe idea when you access the treasury. Depending on the order in which you took on quests in the last chapter, there is still the rest of Dakascus to explore. The first and easiest quest to complete is Yum Yum Candy which gives you the items you need for crafting with the minimum of effort!. ======= Alchemy ======= There will be many recipes that you've had for a while that can be crafted after visiting Western Dakascus. Items such as Glittering Thread and Star Prism are found there for the first time. Formal Fabric and Holy Emblem, Glittering Thread and Blue Pearl are all quest rewards and valuable items to get. Finally the recipe for Aroma Material is available, even though you cannot craft it yet. Make Altena Ingot after being rewarded with Holy Emblems and this item gives you the Blessed Weapon Property, which when added to a weapon will increase it's capacity to inflict physical damage. -------------------- Make Unirus Lifeform - using a Blue Pearl. -------------------- This item will be very useful in the later stages of the game so I advise you not to use it at all in battle until it is absolutely essential, and ONLY use it for crafting when you must. Take on as many Blue Pearl quests as you can, (they are often rewards for repeatable ones), and keep searching for brown bags with them. These are the only sources of the Blue Pearl and you should try and collect as many as you can so you can stock up with Unirus Lifeforms. This helpful item inflicts multiple attacks on an enemy which quickly builds up the Burst Gauge, and it has the additional effect of filling up your skills gauge after the Burst has ended if used at the right time. You also need this item to make the Unipuni Pudding which heals an ally over time, though personally I wouldn't waste them on this, except just to make the one for your alchemy level and another for a later quest. ====== Hammer ====== Now the tree icon will appear on the ALterworld maps and you can hit the tree for rewards. You can also break boulders and this means completing some Field Bonuses, as well as gaining access to many more areas. NOTE Even after doing lots of repeatable quests I failed to get a couple of the Quest Point quests to appear in this chapter, so my guess is that the Giant Exploration has to be completed before Courage Once More, Amnesiac Angel and Love Letter will appear, even though those quests have a lower grade. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me, but that's the way it seems to be. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R S I X - R A I D E R R A N K : - O 8 =============================================================================== N O R M A L Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AMNESIAC ANGEL Client : Rufina, Valtessa Objective: Go visit Rufina, Forest Depths Rank : 08 B Reward : Quest Points 100, Japanese Outfit x1 Recipe Did not appear in chapter 6 - appeared in chapter 7. Visit Rufina in Valtessa Forest Depths. She is will be waiting at the first small room to the right when you enter the Forest Depths. The idea is to give her something that brings back memories, so take the item Memory Refrain with you for this quest. (You should have this by making it as a derived item for the recipe Water of Lethe, that you obtained in the quest for Meyna.) NOTE: It is possible that these quests don't appear in the right order and that this one appears before the Oblivion one. If so, you will need to wait until completing Oblivion before starting this quest, though you can still accept the quest if you want.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CELESTIAL ROOKERY Client : Noella Objective: Go to Guild Master Noella and then to the Chief Pengie in Dakascus. Rank : 08 D Reward : Quest Points 100, Magic Stone x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel Speak to Noella first and then head for the Pengie Village, which will be marked with a red ! though you will know where it is by now. After speaking to the Chief walk to the right and you will now have access to the Celestial Rookery area of Crystal Valley West where there is another red ! mark. There is only one path, but you can pick up treasure in some side rooms if you have a few Breath of Earth to mend the broken crystals. There are very few enemies on this path. When you arrive at the destination there will be a battle with no chance for further preparation. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - MIRAGE | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Celestial Rookery | | Protections: Special/Status Double | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Chomp (instant death) | | Forgetful Hammer (seals) | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------o Mirage used mostly ordinary physical attacks at first and only attacked Nell, though this may be just random, and then launched a devastating CHOMP and poor Iris bit the dirt. They seemed to be pretty well defended as even Kobold Hero only did around 3500 HP damage to them on a burst. I didn't bother too much with healing since you don't know when one of the team will be hit again with Death. Of course, make sure to revive anyone immediately. I had Nell with Siren was useful and Edge with Fanatos (which wasn't). Now you receive the weirdest Mana for Iris: Faustus, the Mana of Illusion, and possibly least useful Blades for Nell: You also get the Automata, a Faustus weapon for Nell. Report back to Noella to complete the quest. (My team were all Level 25 for this battle) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COURAGE ONCE MORE Client : Earl, Tavern Objective: Talk to Earl and go to Valtessa Rank : 08 C Reward : Quest Points 150, Puni Gummy x10 Unable to Cancel (If it does not appear in chapter 6, it will appear in chapter 7) Talk to Earl as usual, in the tavern in Zey Meruze, and Edge suggests that you meet him at the deepest part of the Ancient Forest. Walk to the large central room in the Forest Depths and then walk straight on to enter the small area with the stone ruins. Beware though, after entering this room you won't be able to do anything else in Valtessa as there will be a scene, after which the mist will appear, cutting short your time in the Alterworld. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GIANT EXPLORATION Client : Anna Objective: Investigate the Giant Tree in Posporia Rank : 08 A Reward : Quest Points 200, Doll x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel This appears later in the chapter. Head out to the Bow Won's shop at the Neutral Baths and speak to him in order to use the cannon there. You will be catapaulted to the Giant Tree, and this is a one way trip; you cannot return to the rest of Posporia. Once you've arrived walk right, and follow the obvious path to the red ! mark at the end. You can find some chests along the way and fight enemies that are mostly Jin Riders and Kobolds. Report back to Anna when you've reached the end, which for this quest means going through the opening in the tree trunk at the top of the tree, and there will be a short scene. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LOVE LETTER Client : Winna Objective: Deliver a letter to Pamela from Winna. Rank : 08 C Reward : Quest Points 150, Heart Striker (weapon) Unable to Cancel (Did not appear in this chapter, but in the next.) Receive the letter from Winna and head for the Grimoire library to deliver it to Pamela. You will also get a recipe idea Doll of Death, if you have Alchemy Level 7. Return to town and head back to the Library to speak to Winna again to complete the quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- N33d t0 f1x cl0ck Client : Anna Objective: The client wants a Strange Gearbox to fix the clock. Rank : 08 B Reward : Quest Points 200, Splat Hammer x1 Unable to Cancel Speak to Anna for details about this quest, and then check that you have a spare Strange Gearbox. If not then make one before setting out for Ishtar. From the Woofer Village, climb the vines and head up the metal pipe, and thence up to the teleporter to 2nd Level Terrace South. Flame the ice and walk up the path to the next teleporter. When you arrive at the next area follow the path down the metal platforms. This time I found the Woofer gone from blocking the chest containing the recipe for Hades Axe. (The beads were showing as five left) Continue along the only path to the next teleporter and then jump up to the one above which takes you to the Third Level Terrace. Speak to K33p3r who is standing next to yet another teleporter. Give him the Strange Gearbox when he asks for it. He is so gl4d (not a typo!) that he gives you the Splat Hammer. o Tutorial for Hammer You use this in the same way as the Flame Barrett and it will destroy boulders and can be used to hit the Trees in some Alterworlds After this meeting you can change the Lithographs, and this means that you can now access every area in Ishtar, and you can break the rocks that block the entrance to the second floor in Grimoire. Original Recipe: Gearbox Items needed: Le Merou Cog o Eternal Turnkey/Directional Spring/Strange Slab o Legien Ore/Glansen Ore The Gearbox recipe is a quest reward for Experiment and Rescue. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OBLIVION Client : Meyna, Memorial Monument Objective: Talk to her and take her a Water of Lethe. Rank : 08 B Reward : Quest Points 100, Magic Silver Ingot x5 Unable to Cancel Find Meyna at the Memorial in Zey Meruze, and she will give you the recipe for the Water of Lethe. Return to the workshop and make the item: you should have all the ingredients for it, and then take it to her. That's all there is to it. (If you make another using the Water of Lethe as the first item you will get Refrain Memory.) Original Recipe: Water of Lethe Items needed: Nectar Philosopher's Ash X-Jar Cure Jar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WANT TASTY MEAT Client : Reize, Dakascus Oasis Objective: Bring him a Steak Rank : 08 D Reward : Quest Points 100, Holy Emblem x5 This is the first of a number of quests involving Reize and his desire for food. Eventually you will be able to open the chest behind him, but for now just keep accepting his quests. He is always found at the same place in the fishing spot. C O M B A T Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ANGERED HOLY ANGEL Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat Power x6/7/8 (any location) Rank : 08 B Reward : 3300 Cole, Blue Pearl x10/4000 Cole, Holy Emblem x7 OR 3700 Cole/Holy Emblem x5, Cole 3700, or Blue Pearl x9 and 3100 Cole. *Repeatable Second Level Terrace N Ishtar in small enemies, and even at the Entrance to Ishtar. These are also found in Grimoire. This quest is repeatable many times and the rewards vary. If you get the repeated quest Fallen Angels you can find Power inside the Purple enemies situated at the 2nd Level Terrace N area which makes it esaier both to find Power and to complete two quests at once. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BALANCE OF NATURE Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Slay Panthers in Ishtar. 7 groups needed Rank : 08 D Reward : 5000 Cole, Impulser x1 * Purple Monsters They can be found on the First Level Terrace Ishtar, which is reached when you change one Lithograph to RED. (It's easiest to do this on the one in the Woofer Village.) This removes the Sword Hilt that was blocking the path near the entrance and gives access to the teleporter to the main part of the First Level Terrace. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOREST SPIRIT Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Giant Golden Pig in Valtessa Rank : 08 B Reward : 11000 Cole, Hell Fire x1 Recipe The Golden Pig is in the Forest Depths, and of course he is in the very last room at the far north of the area. (I'd suggest waiting until you have the Hammer before walking all the way out here, as you could pass a little time with some profitable tree thumping on the way, which also will help you complete another Field Bonus for Valtessa. Do the usual thing and raise your skills gauge before this battle. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - GOLDEN PIG | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Valtessa Depths | | Protections: Special/Status Double | | Weakness: Beast | | Skills: Quick, Break | | Drops: | o----------------------------------------o Anyone who has played the other AI games will know what to expect from this PIG, though he is not as fearsome as some. He can add to his speed with "Quick" and break attack someone. Quick can trigger turn after turn so in effect he gets three attacks to your one if you are unlucky. Keep healed and keep using Jiptus when the effect wears off, as this will reduce the power of his attacks by half. His one person normal attack can do nearly 100 HP of damage if you don't use Jiptus, so begin with this summon. You can use any Blades, but you might want to have Edge use Plua with the Beastslayer Wind Slicer weapon. (I had just started to use Fanatos so went with this and left the real killing up to Nell and Iris. You can use any elemental magic and physical attacks on him and they are all effective.) You won't get the reward until you report back...all this walking and taxi-ing gets a bit tedious after a while. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INVISIBLE DEVILS Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Petit Kobold! in Posporia. Rank : 08 C Reward : 11000 Cole, Quickstrike Blade x1 (weapon) You need to go to the Fairy Treasury room, which is one room south from the Village and then right. You can only enter this room when there are three or less beads left. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - PETIT KOBOLD | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Fairy Treasury | | Protections: Special/Status Double | | Weakness: Beast | | Skills: Quick, Bite | | Drops: | o----------------------------------------o This little guy is fast because he can use "Quick", turn after turn, and each Bite attack can inflict around 30-40 HP damage for one person at a time. Keeping healed is your first priority, and Nell with Nymph would be best for this battle. Use Jiptus and Diemia summons with Iris to reduce the power of his attacks, and knock him back. Getting a burst can be a little tricky if he manages to do four or five attacks in a row, but otherwise this is not hard with any Blades. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LIZARDS FOUR Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Lizard Rebel in Ishtar Rank : 08 A Reward : 11000 Cole, Magic Armour x1 Recipe Walk all the way to the 2nd Level Terrace Pond and you'll find the Boss blocking the path across the pond. You can edge (sorry...) around to reach the fishing spot if you don't plan to fight them just yet. When you are ready jump up to touch them and the battle will start. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - DRAGONEWT X3 | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Ishtar 2nd Level Terrace N | | Protections: Special, Fire | | Weakness: Dragon | | Skills: Break | | Drops: Dragon Bone | o----------------------------------------o There are only three of them and they are identical. Their only skill is Break, which targets one, and they individually autoheal by around 250 HP each time it is their turn. Your Blades don't really matter, but having an attack that targets them all at once is helpful, or a timed attack to build up your Burst Gauge. I used Kobold Hero as a general attack and when the Burst occurred, good old Kobold stomped them flat, and that was that. Celebrate with a bit of peaceful fishing if you don't have much time left at the end of this battle. F E T C H Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GROW, DEAR YOUTH Client : Hagel, Weapon Shop Objective: Take him 10 Shroom Juice Rank : 08 B Reward : Dragoneer x1, Silmarillion x1 (Did not appear in this chapter ...in fact this request only appeared after completing the quest to make a Draken for Hagel in the next chapter, and he will talk about the need for medicine to heal his baldness, in a roundabout way.) Shroom Juice is easy enough to make using readily available ingredients except that the final itsm is Mysterious Seed and you may run short of those. If so, you can buy them at the shop in the Beastmen's Quarters. The rewards are two weapons, but not recipes. In fact the additional Silmarillion is handy as you will need 4 of these for a later quest. Oh, and this is yet another reason for saying for can never have enough Melty Spring Water! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE HOLY KNIGHT Client : Gregor, 2nd Level South, Ishtar. Objective: Take him Gauntlet of Artorius x1 Rank : 08 B Reward : 9000 Cole, Formal Fabric x5 This is an accessory made from the Thorn Gauntlet using Altena Ingot as the first item. To make the ALtena Ingot (derived from the Ingot recipe, and made by changing first ingredient of the Magic Silver Ingot), you need the Holy Emblem item. You can first get these from the quest Angered Holy Angel. After making the Altena Ingot use this to make the Thorn Gauntlet accessory and you'll find a new recipe: The Gauntlet of Artorious needed for a quest. This recipe needs the Altena Ingot, Philosopher's Ash and a Pendelook - which is also not a common item, but found in the further areas of Ishtar. Gregor is reached by climbing the vines from the Woofer Village and then taking the teleporter. From here melt the ice and walk up to the top of the path to find Gregor standing by the next teleporter. Original Recipe: Derived from Gauntlet Items Needed: Altena Ingot o Philosopher's Ash/Glansen Ore o Pendelook/Gravity Stone Find the recip in a treasure chest at the Giant Tree, Posporia. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- YUM YUM CANDY Client : Manna, Grocery Store Objective: Give her 4 Chaos Candy Rank : 08 A Reward : Glittering Thread x5, Blue Pearl x5 You can get these as using Nell's Trick or Treat skill with Siren Blades equipped. Various monsters give them: Kamikaze Doll G, Kamikaze Doll, Morning Glory, Shield Geist, Dark Puni, Shadowgirl, Shadow Legien. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R S I X : M I S S I O N - Challenging Control =============================================================================== RANK 09 GALE - X Heal x5, Misty Curtain x3, Sweaty Fruit x3. After reaching the Raider Rank upgrade there will be a scene with Manna asking you to go the Guild. You are at the Workshop so you can easily save if you want before heading to the Guild, receiving your rank up items, and then entering Noella's room for instructions. Now make your way to the 3rd Level Ishtar to investigate the Pillar of Light. This reached by going to the Woofer Village and then up to the second teleporter where you have to smash the rocks. You MUST have the Lithographs set to RED (the future) to remove the tree that otherwise blocks the path to the east of the 3rd Level Terrace. When you arrive at the 3rd LT you'll see the red mark at Sword Hill. Gregor has moved to the first room and tells you the route is past the tree, if you need reminding. Walk along the narrow path to the right and where there is a flat metal plate go through the gap in the upper wall onto a pipe leading north. In the next room there is a healing spot just before you step onto the metal pipes that lead to the next room. You will arrive at the target destination immediately, and there is the expected battle. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - ALVERO 2 | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Sword Hill, Ishtar | | Protections: Special/Status Double | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Twin Blade X (timed), | | Thunder Blade (one) | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------o His Twin Blade X attack on one does around 30 HP damage, but since this is a repeat attack it will damage your burst gauge more seriously than your team. Iris can summon Jiptus to begin with which helps, and I had Edge with Plua's Dancing Edge to rack up the burst gauge. Nell with Faustus is hopeless in this fight since none of her specialist attacks can be used against Alvero, but really this does not matter as with one burst you can defeat him. Then you have the more interesting battle. Yes, he transforms and takes on the Undead class. The music changes as well, to a more funky minor key battle theme. o--------------------------------------------------o | BOSS - ALVERO 2 (AGAIN) | |--------------------------------------------------| | Location: Sword Hill, Ishtar | | Protections: Special/Status Double | | Weakness: Undead | | Skills: Twin Blade X (timed), Thunder Blade (one)| | Necroism (power up), Spark Blade (timed) | | - all | | Drops: None | o--------------------------------------------------o Use exactly the same techniques as before. Spark Blade can inflict around 70- 120 HP damage to all depending on weaknesses and equipment. With the boost he gets, the timed and ordinary attack will do around 60 -70 HP damage per person This battle will take at least two bursts to complete. Edge with Plua is quite useful but I would suggest a different Blades for Nell, though at least Faustus has higher HP and hits harder. (After battle events are quite a shock actually...and now you know more about Crowley.) =============================================================================== C H A P T E R S E V E N ..................................................C07 =============================================================================== o----------------------------------o | Quests - Target Points | | Rank 09 GALE | |----------------------------------| | Battlefield Nurse 100 points | | Left Behind 150 points | | Lost, I'll Find 150 points | | Reckless Raiders 250 points | | Subcontract, Again! 150 points | | The Squawk Chief 200 points | | Want Good Soup 100 points | o----------------------------------o. o AREAS OPENED IN THIS CHAPTER - Dakascus Crystal Valley North [Mission] o MANA/BLADES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Luplus - Mana of Time (Edge Blade) [Optional fight with Shadowstalker, Sword Hill, Ishtar] o RECIPES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Crown of Thorns [Quest reward - Dragon Fight] - Ladies Clothes [Quest reward - Left Behind] - Legendary Stone [Quest reward - The Squawk Chief] - Magic Board [Quest reward - Reckless Raiders] - Merdoll [Quest reward - Prince of the Sea] - Shoes [Quest reward - Bandits Resurrected] - Super Medicine [Mission chest - inside secret room of ???

Save these for crafting and for the hardest battles. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R S E V E N : W A L K T H R O U G H =============================================================================== In this chapter you can obtain the final Mana, and the Mission will take you into the final area of the Alterworlds. You won't obtain all recipes yet though, so just keep grafting/crafting. ====== Quests ====== You will begin this chapter in the Guild, so just take all the quests that you can. Love Letter, Courage, and Once More, all listed as Rank Required 08 appeared at the start of this chapter. After completing one or two early quests there will be more on the board, so you can group and plan them according to the Alterworld. The Reckless Raiders quest requires visits to three different Alterworlds: Valtessa, Ishtar and Dakascus, so plan your other quests around this one to avoid too much revisiting. Valtessa Quests There is one Raider to find in Valtessa, Earl's quest may be in this chapter, Rufina as well, and the Puni Brothers 3 is in this chapter so you could do them all at once. The Puni Brothers will be where they always are at the pond, and the Raider's location is marked in the Depths. Posporia Complete a quest that rewards you with Fragment of Aion, such as Battlefield Nurse, and take on Festival Preparations or any other combat quest, and Strong Bears (which also rewards with Fragment of Aion) at the same time. Ishtar Collect a few Ishtar quests: Gregor wants an Amulet, and there should be the King Tuna request from Funan as well as some repeated combat quests to make it worth your while, together with the Lost Raiders. You can also fight Shadow Stalker in this chapter. Grimoire Take on the Squawk Chief quest and the Dragon Fight one: this will help you find the Dragon's Tongue you need for the Karotto Magasto recipe and Want Good Soup quest. Dakascus There is Soup to deliver and a Reckless Raider to find, but wait until you can make the soup before starting out, and there is another set of Lizard Bandits to vanquish. ======= Alchemy ======= There are no more Alchemy Levels beyond Level 8, but don't stop crafting things as there are many more recipes still left that can only be completed during the later chapters of the game. Also you can begin to improve the quality of some previously made things now that you have access to a wider range of ingredients. Start to think about saving and collecting the uncommon items for better effects, and making multiples for healing and attack items. Once you have a Fragment of Aion you can make the Super Nectar for the first time. This is derived from the Nectar recipe with Nectar as the first ingredient. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R S E V E N - R A I D E R R A N K : O 9 =============================================================================== N O R M A L Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BATTLEFIELD NURSE Client : Repre, Hot Springs, Posporia Objective: Take X-Heal x 5 to her. Rank : 09 A Reward : Quest Points: 100, Fragment of Aion x2 The reward is useful and the request is easy to fulfil. She is waiting for you near a tree at the upper path leading to the right from the Neutral Baths in Posporia. There will be an easy battle with two Tigers after giving her the items. By the way she wants the X HEAL which is a Mana Item. and not the X-Jar, which is an ingredient, although the recipe uses an X Jar for the last ingredient. It also needs a Pendelook, so you may need to collect some more of these. (Found in Ishtar.) Original Recipe: Restorative Medicine Items Needed: Heal Jar o Pendelook/Dunkelhite X-Jar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LEFT BEHIND Client : Meyna, Memorial Monument Objective: Go to Meyna then meet her at Ishtar entrance. Rank : 09 A Reward : Quest Points 150, Ladies Clothes x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel May not appear until the next chapter. Meet Meyna at the Memorial as usual and she wants you to accompany her to Ishtar. Go to the portal and she will arrive. Although she doesn't tell you much, if you look at the map for 3rd Level Terrace there will be the friendly red mark showing the room. This is where the Diamond Dust recipe is found, and it is to the far right of the main map. Head up the two sets of vines from the Woofer Village and take the teleporter to the 3rd Level Terrace. The Lithograph must be set to RED (future) so you can walk past the tree, and you can quickly check this as there is no second pond on the map if it is red. There will be a couple of short scenes as you walk towards the destination room, and at the metal plate where the path leads to Sword Hill, there will be a battle with a couple of Leopards. Follow Meyna to the final room for the completion of this quest. NOTE: this time there are no enemies at all in the room so if you haven't yet obtained the Diamond Dust recipe now is a good opportunity to do so. Just jump across the rocks to the right. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LOST, I'LL FIND Client : Pukko, Beastmen Quarters Objective: Listen to Pukko's concern, then go to Valtessa Depths. Rank : 09 B Reward : Quest points 150, Healing Necklace x1 Unable to Cancel May not appear until the next chapter. You don't need to do this quest as you already have the recipe for Healing Necklace, but it's useful to get another one. Visit Pukko in his usual place in the Beastmen's Quarters, and watch the scene. Then go to the Ancient Forest to find the pendant that Phenyl dropped somewhere. This is easy to find in the Forest Depths area. Head for the largest room and then turn left to enter the room with the Tree icon and there will be a scene as soon as you arrive. You are free to continue killing stuff in Valtessa and could bash the tree for items and enemies. With a little luck you will find an Apple of Youth here. Return to town and take the pendant to Pukko and there will be another scene, after which the quest is completed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RECKLESS RAIDERS Client : Noella, Master's Office Objective: Go to see Noella and help the Raiders Rank : 09 A Reward : Quest Points 250, Magic Board x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel You are instructed to help out some Raiders who have been taking on quests that are beyond their capabilities, but only at the last minute. You are supposed to ask the Gatekeepers at the Alterworlds to find out where they went. You can do these in any order and take as long as you like to complete the quest. o Ishtar If you head to the Ishtar entrance and speak to the guard by the door, he will tell you that a low rank Raider went in, and is heading to the Sword Hill, where the pillar of light appeared. The route is from the highest teleporter in the Woofer Village with the Lithograph set to RED. As soon as you go through the opening in the wall heading to the red ! mark, there will be a scene. WARNING If you continue up to the Sword Hill there will be a new boss enemy waiting for you! This is Shadow Stalker. Don't worry if you lose this fight as there is no penalty and you can return to fight him again. o Valtessa One is in Valtessa, so you could do this one when you have another Valtessa quest or three. The location is marked with the red ! at the room just before the final one in the Forest Depths. You need to head to the right when you enter the previous room and this will begin a short scene and a battle with a Owlbear and a couple of Leopards. That's all you have to do in Valtessa. o Dakascus (need Breath of Earth if you haven't explored here yet.) Talk to the guard and he will mark the Raider's location on the map. He is is Crystal Valley West in a room at the furthest east. It's a long trek, but there are Hourglasses to find along the way. (When you enter the first room of the West region stay on the upper path heading left, and when you enter the rectangular room stay on the lower path leading down.) There will be a simple battle with a Lizard Lord, Lizard Shaman and Lizard Warrior all of whom are weak to Ice and DragonSlayer weapons. There is nothing to find in the room so if you're done, just head back to town, and report back to Noella for the reward. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUBCONTRACT, AGAIN! Client : Earl, Tavern Objective: Talk to Earl in person, then go to Giant Tree in Posporia Rank : 09 A Reward : Quest Points 150, Chain of Gleipnir x1/3 (variable) Unable to Cancel Find Earl in the Tavern and he gives instructions to defeat a monster called Fallen Lord at the Giant Tree. This is reached from the cannon at the Bow Won shop at Neutral Baths, and remember, you cannot get back to Posporia from there, so try to find an additional combat quest for this visit if possible. Once you arrive at the tree check the map to see a red ! mark in the second to last room of the tree map. This is the Upper Area of the tree where the logs form a series of flat steps. o--------------------------------------------o | BOSS - FALLEN LORD | |--------------------------------------------| | Location: Posporia, Giant Tree Upper Area | | Protections: Special Double | | Weakness: Dead | | Skills: Break | o--------------------------------------------o He is immune to poison unless you remove his traits, in which case, he's not! His single person attack can do around 140 HP damage depending on equipment. Break will inflict 200 + . As usual summon Jiptus with Iris and if possible use a weapon that targets the dead. I used Edge with Jiptus for this battle and equipped him with the Holy Halberd, and Nell with Faustus. But you could use any Blades. Just for fun I removed his traits, and then poisoned him. This is an easy battle with one burst and Soul Burst. There will be a scene with Earl after defeating the Fallen Lord, after which you can leave, and then return to the Tavern to speak to Earl again to complete the quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE SQUAWK CHIEF Client : Noella, Master's Office Objective: Go to Noella and then find Squawk Chief Rank : 09 A Reward : Quest Points 200, Legendary Stone x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel This quest appears on the board after completing the Reckless Raiders quest. All you have to do at first, is meet with the Chief in the Squawks Village. As soon as you arrive a scene will unfold and you'll discover he isn't in the village. (While you're here fish for Joker Fish if you need some for Funan quests, and pick up the Hourglass close to the pond.) Check the map for 3F and you'll see the red ! mark showing that the Chief went to the clock tower. This is reached by a circuitous route, which is easier if you have already explored the UG area and flipped the switch which opens the way through to this area. If you haven't then either check out the section on Grimoire or follow the summary of the route here. Go back underground from the village and head back down the Prison Path and then left along the path to UG 1F South, and bash the rocks at the far end with the Hammer. This takes you to UG iF Far South. At the far end of the path go through an opening to the Outer Castle ??? Switch. Flip this, and then return all the way back to the main entrance of the Castle. (You can leave and return for the last part of this trip it you want.) Starting from the main entrance of Grimoire, bash the rocks that block the opening, and go up to the second floor. This is 2F South Corridor and then walk up the passage to 2F Inner South. (There are chests in the side rooms if you haven't yet explored here.) With the switch flipped, the machinery has stopped, allowing you to proceed. Follow the path and enter the opening and there will be a scene with the Squawk Chief. After this you can explore further if you want by flipping the switch that was by the opening to this area of the Castle (3F Inside), and doing the same for the next section of this floor until you reach the Bell Tower. (There an Iris alchemy idea there, for Alchemy Level 6.) When you are ready, return to Noella to complete the quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WANT GOOD SOUP Client : Reize, Dakascus Oasis Objective: Give him a Karotto Magasto Rank : 09 C Reward : Quest Points 100, Taiyaki x2 Make this soup as a derived recipe from the Green Soup, but you require a Dragon's Tongue to make it. This is a drop from the Necrohydra enemy found in Grimoire UG in this chapter. The enemies are inside large red blobs on the Prison Path, and they are the purple groups for the Dragon Fight quest. You need to complete this quest for the Taiyaki reward which is required for for a quest in the next chapter to make Feudal Snackcastle. (There are other sources for this item, but you might as well get as many as you can.) Original Recipe: Derived from Soup Items Needed: Carrotato Green Soup o Dragon Tongue/Golden Meat o Salt/Concentrated Honey C O M B A T Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BANDITS RESURRECTED Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the King of Scales in Dakascus Rank : 09 A Reward : 12000 Cole, Shoes x1 Recipe They are in East Dakasucs, which means heading right from the room where the first Pengie stands, and then walking up three rooms and left into the side room where you previously fought some Lizard Bandits. This time you will need a Breath of Earth to cross over to the part of the room where the enemy is found. Equip yourself with Ice and Dragon based weapons if you want to defeat them quickly. Draken is useful with Nell using Diemia Blades. o-----------------------------------------o | BOSS - KING OF SCALES | |-----------------------------------------| | Location: Dakascus, Crystal Valley East | | Protections: Status Double, Physical | | Weakness: Dragon, Ice | | Skills: Venom, Dragon Stance (auto) | | Drops: None | o-----------------------------------------o He is accompanied by two ordinary Lizard Thiefs, both of which are weak to Ice, and they all have Venom attacks. Dragon Stance increases his speed so he'll get in a couple of attacks, and one can do around 100 HP damage, but that is only to one person. This is a nice battle because of the range of weaknesses, and the fact that the King is not defended against Special attacks, even though he resists physical attacks. With Ice Volley from Nell, using the Accessory Ice Bangle, which targets all enemies, and Iris with her Nymph Ice summons and an Ice weapon, a burst is easy to achieve. With one burst you should be able to defeat both Lizards. You can even poison them all and the King will lose around 2500 HP a go if poisoned. It should only take one, or at the maximum, two bursts to defeat them all. Open the chest here to receive a Star Prism, and report back to Phenyl for the reward. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DRAGON FIGHT Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Slay Grimoire Necrohydra. 5 groups needed Rank : 09 C Reward : 8000 Cole, Crown of Thorns x1 Recipe * Purple Monsters Make sure to take this quest for the recipe reward, and the drops of Dragon Tongues. These purple enemies are found in UG Grimoire 2F which is reached from the second Nature's Prison Room, that has the stairs down, hidden by three boxes. For the quest they appear one at a time in each purple enemy, and be careful as they target everyone with a cursed breath attack, which means you cannot recover HP during the battle if afflicted. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FESTIVAL PREPARATIONS Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat Jin Riders. 10 needed (Any Location - Giant Tree Posporia). Rank : 09 B Reward : 4900 Cole, Holy Emblem x10, (Repeats - 5700 Cole, Blue Pearl x 12/4100 Cole, Holy Emblem x7) * Repeatable You can find Jin Riders at the Giant Tree in Posporia. They are inside both small and large enemies. This quest does not ask for groups, but for numbers of Jin Riders and sometimes there will be more than one in a group. Alternatives: defeat 9, for a reward of 4500 Cole and Glittering Thread x7. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PUNI BROTHERS 3!? Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Puni Brothers in Valtessa Rank : 09 A Reward : 8000 Cole, Moon Prism x 1 They are where they always are: at the pond in Valtessa, and are the same as usual. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - PUNI BROTHERS 3 Taro, Kichi,Jiro| |----------------------------------------| | Location: Valtessa Fishing Spot | | Protections: Special Double | | Weakness: Puni | | Skills: Puni Spike | o----------------------------------------o This is pathetically easy, and if you have a few points on the skill gauge it will be over in one round, or even one turn! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE STRONG BEARS Client : Phenyl Objective: Slay Posporian Bear Monster. 8/7 groups Rank : 09 C Reward : 5100 Cole, Fragment of Aion x2 * Quest Limit: 3 times This is a good quest to do for the reward, though it will probably require two visits to complete it, at least I could not find sufficient numbers of groups in one trip. Only five in fact, despite trekking everywhere in Fairy Territory. Head to Fairy Fort West Entrance and Western Forest to find purple enemies: Nightwalker Bears. To reach here in this chapter is slightly complicated because Fairies block the way south and east, and you can't use the cannon east of the pond. Use the cannon from Kuma territory West to land in Fairy Fort, West Entrance, and walk left to find the first purple blob. Keep going, heading towards the Fairy Village, to find more. You can leave this quest until the next chapter when the situation changes in Posporia. Now the bears have taken over Fairy territory and the Fairy Village area is open for you to walk there. F E T C H Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DRAGON SLASHING Client : Hagel, Weapon Shop Objective: Take him Draken x1 Rank : 09 A Reward : Star Prism x1, Magic Silver Ingot x5 This is made from the Dragon Lance recipe found in a chest in the Rookery at Dakascus. After completing this quest Hagel will ask about the hair restorative, but you need to check back at the Guild to accept this new quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MAGICAL AMULET Client : Gregor, 2nd Level South, Ishtar Objective: Take him 1 Amulet (or 3) Rank : 09 A Reward : Glittering Thread x8, Long Pochy x12 (Repeatable: Blue Pearl x 5, Jawbreaker Candy 8/Blue Pearl x7, Dragon Bone x8 for 4 Amulets) * Repeatable This is another Gregor quest, and you make an Amulet (which is a weapon, not an accessory), using a Pendelook and Altena Ingot from the Magic Stone recipe (from Celestial Rookery quest). Check to see how many he wants, but for the first time it should be only one. He's on 2nd Level South, reached when you go up the first vine in the Woofer Village and then left along the pipe and up to the teleporter. NOTE By the way, you can have more than one Gregor quest at once so you could accept one and then wait for another before taking the trip to see him. Original Recipe: Derived from Magic Stone Items Needed: o Pendelook/Talisman/Wind Slicer Altena Ingot ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NEW MENU PUDDING Client : Ella, Rio Book Store Objective: Take her Unipuni Pudding x1 Rank : 09 B Reward : Le Merou Cog x 5, Holy Emblem x5/Blue Pearl x9 * Repeatable To make the Unipuni Pudding you have to use a precious Unirus Lifeform. (The recipe for this was found in the Squawk Treasury as an Iris Alchemy idea for Alchemy Level 5 if you haven't got it yet.) Make one pudding and take it to Ella for the useful reward. Now, in one game I got the better Blue Pearl reward though this may have been for a repeat quest. This quest is worth doing nonetheless, and keep an eye out for repeats if you want to amass more Holy Emblems and Blue Pearls. Original Recipe: Derived from Cake Items Needed: o Puni Gummy Goat Cheese Unirus Lifeform Puppy Paw Bonbon ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PRINCE OF THE SEA Client : Funan, Westbridge Objective: King Tuna x1 will be needed Rank : 09 S Reward : Merdoll x1 Recipe. Thunder Rod x3 Fish for King Tuna at Ishtar ponds. Either pond will do, but the second one only appears when the Lithographs are set to BLUE (past) and King Tunas appear more often. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R S E V E N : M I S S I O N - Embracer of Darkness =============================================================================== RAIDER RANK 10, STORM - collect your rank up provisions: Heal All x5, Nectar x10, Bitter Fruit x3 Start this mission by visiting Noella who will give instructions to speak to Hagel, and Phenyl will tell you that the tavern is a good place for information. Call in on both of them for information, and then go to the Eastern Residences and the empty house, heading right along the path that runs past the bookshop. The house is up some steps before reaching the grass at the monument. There will be a scene when you arrive, and then you must search the back wall between the two patches of broken plaster and a secret door will open. There is a chest with Super Medicine Recipe. Click X on the desk for another scene. Click on the map at the back of the room for more information, and then the decision is made to head for Dakascus. Saving seems a good plan before setting out, and checking your equipment and Blades. (By this point I had only one Breath of Earth left, so made a few more just in case.) I equipped Luplus to increase the Blade levels, (and in fact this is a good choice of Blade if you have it) and Nell with Diemia so at least one person had physical attacks. You won't be able to make Elixir from the recipe in Crowley's House just yet, but with the Glowing Bracelet you can use Raise even to fully heal, even if someone is not dead. When you arrive at Dakascus look at the map to see the red ! mark at the destination in Crystal Valley North, so make your way west and then north to the first room of the currently unexplored area. As soon as you cross into the new area the crystal that was blocking the path will disappear and you can continue. There is an hourglass in the first area, and if you walk right this leads to the north. There are bags with the previously rare Gravity Stones. and lots of crystals to break, but no enemies until you reach the next room. You can explore the area first if you want, as there are some chests to find, but you need at least five more Breath of Earths. If you go left from the rectangular room (the third one in this map), you must use another Breath of Earth and then you can cross to another room with two exits. Go left and down and this path leads around and back to the right, under the path to the left room, and to a heal point. Continue to find Crowley. o------------------------------------------o | BOSS - CROWLEY | |------------------------------------------| | Location: Dakascus, Crystal Valley North | | Protections: Special/Status Double | | Weakness: Evil | | Skills: Heaven's Gate (all) timed | | Whirl of Greed (all) | | Haste (increases speed) | | Vritra (all) | | Gate - summons Shadow (timed) | o------------------------------------------o Most of Crowley's attacks are time based so you will see additional cards added to the ACCB. If you use Luplus Blades with Edge you can erase these time cards, and this makes quite a difference to the battle: at least it can mean that you never have to heal! He can also summon additional monsters to the fight, but these are not strong and can easily be defeated. However, he has a range of attacks, all of which can be damaging if you let him keep his time cards. Heaven's Gate (all) timed attack repeats once per card round. His single attack did around 40 HP. Whirl of Greed (all). Haste, he speeds up. Vritra, damages everyone. Gate - summons a Shadow (timed) Using Luplus for Edge is not a bad idea as you can erase Crowley's timed attacks. Nell had Delay on her Diemia weapon which helped to prevent Crowley from getting his turn, and Iris can summon Luplus to speed up your turns. (The long walk will mean your skill gauge should be high without having to fight battles). You can use the attack item Lightning Rod to good effect given that Edge may not have many other useful attacks if his Luplus Blade is still at low levels. Kill Crowley and all other summoned enemies will disappear. Maybe two bursts to finish him off. Iris takes the Gem, and that is the end of the chapter. You cannot do more exploring even if there is time left. NOTE If you don't have Luplus, then use whatever other Blade you like: Jiptus with Edge would be good with Soul Burst, and Nell could use Nymph for healing and boosting, with Iris on attack magic, and her usual Jiptus summon. My team were at level 28 for this battle. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R E I G H T ..................................................C08 =============================================================================== o----------------------------------o | Quests - Target Points 1500 | | Raider Rank - STORM 10 6500 | |----------------------------------| | Chiefs Meeting 300 points | | Complaints Exploded 200 points | | Get Me Out! 200 points | | Kidnapped Repre 150 points | | Pamela's Death 150 points | | Sword Of Dakascus 300 points | | Your Love 200 points | o----------------------------------o. o AREAS OPENED IN THIS CHAPTER - No new areas. o MANA/BLADES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - No new Blades, unless you left Luplus to this chapter. o RECIPES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Glasses [Quest reward - Pamela's Death] - Heaven's Book [Quest reward - Sword of Dakascus] - Robe [Quest reward - Chief's Meeting] - Stellar Rune [Quest reward - Tribal Code] - Thunder Summoner [Quest reward - Shroom Out of Place] o ALCHEMY LEVELS OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - None =============================================================================== C H A P T E R E I G H T : W A L K T H R O U G H =============================================================================== ====== Quests ====== Dressing Up, Memory Calls, Making a Castle, Shroom Out of Place, Left Behind, Karrotato Tragedy, Tribal Code, Subcontract Again will appear if you didn't get it in the previous chapter. Complete a couple or more easy quests and there will some more quests: Pukko's Lost, I'll Find which is for Raider Rank 9 but only appeared in this chapter, Supreme Gem, Sword of Dakascus and Pamela's Death then appeared. Zey Meruze There are a number of quests that involve alchemy so it's best to start by doing some crafting. Then go and talk to Eva (and Earl) at the Tavern, and visit Pukko in the Beastmen Quarters. Pukkos' quest and Karrotato Tragedy are both in Valtessa, and so you can do these at the same time. If you have the You Love quest for Pukko (which may be in the next chapter) and Complaints Exploded it's a good idea to do these two at the same time as they both involve walking back and forth to the Beastman Quarters. The Gem combat quest and Noella's Sword quest are both in Dakascus so aim to complete these at the same time. Chief's Meeting will only appear after completing Noella's Sword, but when it does accept immediately, as this involves visits to three Alterworlds, so you can plan other quests around this. Dakascus revisited Visit the Pengie chief and Reize at the Oasis at the same time. Grimoire Wait to do the Pamela's Death quest until you have the Chief's Meeting and Shroom Out of Place, and you can do them all at once. Start by visiting Pamela and then go the Village and find the Shroom in Nature's Prison after this, and finally go to the lower floor of the Underground area to complete Pamela's quest. ======= Alchemy ======= Check to see if there is anything new you can craft. It's easy to miss things which are derived recipes so a quick review can be helpful at this point. Also make lots of the more commonly used items and begin to stack up multiples of things such as Alchemic Metal, Magic Silver Ingot, Philosopher's Ash. Items For example, I found I had not yet made the derived recipe from Cheesecake. This requires Cheesecake for the first item, Flour, Super Nectar and Taiyaki, and makes Feudal Snackcastle, which you need for one of the quests. Make Elixir now you have an Alberich. Make the Chronicle Slab for which you need a Magician's Book (weapon) as well as Glansen Ore/Elemia Ore and a Gravity Stone. This gives the useful property of "Quick", and it's worth crafting some equipment with this. After making Aroma Material you can make Ruby Prism. (It needs Aroma Material, Brilliant Stone/Pentagle, Dunkelhite and Dragon Tongue. With the Ruby Prism you can make Gold. I hate having to waste the precious Prism on something with the quality of Useless, but there's no option. However this enables you to make another piece of armour for Iris. Weapons The recipe for the weapon Silmarillion can be used to make another weapon using a Silmarillion as the first item, and either and Alberich or Elixir for the last item. Alberich gives Autoheal++ so you might want to choose this. You now have the Alectorian a 6 xHIT weapon for Edge with the added bonus of Electricity. The recipe for Balmung can be used with a Uni as the first item, and the Chronicle Slab as the second, with Glansen Ore/Slash Rapier/Punislayer as the third and Tufts/Brownie Mask/Rainbow Feather as the last, to make Hunter Needle, a 4 xHIT weapon for Nell that targets Beasts. You can finally make the Twig of Origin for Nell now you have an Elixir. This uses Baba Yoga, Elixir, Philosopher's Ash and Shroom Juice. If you want a better choice of properties then play around with the Baba Yaga as this is the only ingredient over which you have some control. You'll see that this has Gurgu's Cane as an ingredient and again, you might want to alter the properties of this before using it. It can get complicated at this point in the game, as you attempt to make weapons that have the very best properties without wasting precious ingredients such as the Elixir. Make Seaform Fishruin, a weird fishy weapon for Nell. Armour Use the recipe for Metal Haubark and with Angel Wings as the first item, Silver Cuirass/Ravissan, Vanilla Syrup. and Monster Cookie/Jawbreaker Candy, you will get Feather Flow for Nell. With this you can now make Heaven's Feel, also for Nell. This resists special attacks whereas Feather Flow resists physical. Using Feather Flow (Elixir, Altena Ingot/Apple of Youth/Gravity Stone, and Red Powerpuff/Nicro Cloth/Posporia Cloth/Formal Fabric), you can make Scarlet Tail for Nell, which resists Fire. Use the recipe for Violetta and change the first item to Gold, and then Violetta/Formal Fabric, Blue Pearl/Glittering Thread, and Angel Wings gives you Saint's Garb. Accessories With the Alberich, and Tufts/Fairy Hat/Rainbow Feather, you can make Bunny Ears. Make Winged Boots for the first time now you have the Chronicle Slab. (Boot, Chronicle Slab, Rainbow Feather/Gravity Stone.) You can choose from Quick or Speed (L) on this item, but I'd go for Quick, as speed can be added to many items. Using the recipe for Healing Ankh and either Elixir or Super Nectar as the first item (Super Nectar is cheaper in ingredients), you can make the VERY useful Healing Bracelet, which has the Common Skill Heal All. Make more than one of these if you can. Make Aroma Material now that you have the Healing Bracelet. This uses Brilliant Stone, Pentagle, Healing Bracelet and Salt. Make Crown of Thorns using Silver Frost Ring, Water of Lethe, Voodoo Doll and Altena Ingot and this gives the Common Skill Nightmare. Make Phelios Globe which gives the Common Skill of Meteor. (It uses Globe, Star Prism/Moon Prism, Globeball, and Magician's Book.) NOTE You want as many Fragments of Aion as you can get, to make the Super Nectar, so you can make Healing Bracelets for everyone. ==================== Alchemy After Quests ==================== Heaven's Book gives you the recipe for Solomon's Key, a weapon for Edge. (You can put both Delay L and First Strike on this which I think is useful.) Robe gives you the recipe for Alchemy Robe, armour for Iris. If you substitute Thin Leotard for the first item you will get the derived recipe for Celestial Robe using Formal Stole and Chain of Gleipnir. This double defends from Ice and Fire attacks and has high speed so is rather useful, although the Alchemy Robe has better overall defense and magic attack. Take your pick of these! Make the Thunder Caller accessory and you can then use this to craft the weapon Element Blaze. This is a better weapon with Electricity and has 6 xHIT. You can also make Deadpoint Glasses which gives an increase to HP. Once again there were too many quest point quests for me, so a number of them did not appear despite taking and cancelling minor repeat quests. Anyway you can continue to accept repeat quests and gather extra useful items from them, and the missed quests will appear in the next chapter. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R E I G H T - R A I D E R R A N K : 1 0 S T O R M =============================================================================== N O R M A L Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHIEFS MEETING Client : Noella, Master's Office Objective: Go to see her and then all the Chiefs. Rank : 10 A Reward : Quest Points 300, Robe x1 Recipe. Unable to Cancel This will appear on the board after completing Noella's Sword Quest, so accept it and return to talk to Noella again. There is going to be a chiefs' conference, and you must deliver letters to all the Beastmen Chiefs. This entails visits to Ishtar, Woofer Village; Grimoire Castle, Squawks Village; Dakascus, Pengie Village; and Posporia, Kuma Village and Fairy Village. All you have to do is speak to all the Chiefs. You can check your progress in the "Quest in Progress" menu. To get to the Kuma Chief in this chapter you have to take one of the Fairy Cannons (East or West) since the direct route is blocked. Then walk to the Kuma Village and the chief is found inside the main house. From the Kuma Village North then take the cannon back to the Fairy Village and walk ahead up the slope into the tree house. The chief is in the second room here. After completing all the visits (five in total), return to speak to Noella. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPLAINTS EXPLODED Client : Cerber, Cerber's House, Beastmen Quarters. Objective: Meet Cerber first Rank : 10 B Reward : Quest Points 200, Globeball x5 Unable to Cancel May not appear until the next chapter. Speak to Cerber, who is worried about Human/Beast relations again, and then visit the Tavern in town and talk to Eva about the so-called secret "Human Only" meetings to find out the truth. Then head back to the Beastman Quarters and and you will witness their meetings. Of course all this angst is based on a misunderstanding and as Pukko says: it's all been a waste of hatred! But now you have another task, to visit the Pengie Chief. Visit Dakascus and speak to the chief in the Pengie Village, who tells you to head back to Cerber and reassure him. After another scene the quest is completed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GET ME OUT! Client : Reize, Dakascus Oasis Objective: Listen to Reize's story Rank : 10 B Reward : Quest Points 200, Moon Prism x1 Unable to Cancel Visit and speak to Reize at the Oasis in Dakascus. He arranges to meet you near the entrance on your next visit, so head back to Dakascus and he will be waiting just inside the Alterworld. He joins your party and now all you need to do is walk back to the signpost at the crossroads. After a short scene continue down the path heading towards the Oasis, and there will be another short scene. Finally, back at the oasis he STILL won't let you get to the treasure chest, but that's the end of the quest, so at least you gain a Moon Prism. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- KIDNAPPED REPRE Client : Fairy Chief, Fairy Chief's Room Objective: Listen to the Fairy Chief Rank : 10 A Reward : Quest Points 150, Peacemaker x1 (Weapon) NOTE: Make sure to have a Hot Salad in your inventory before setting out. However, if you forget, and have to go back and make one, when you re-enter Posporia the game very kindly does not make you walk all the way back to Mr Bear. This quest may not appear until the next chapter. Your access to the different areas to begin with, is dependent on which chapter you get this quest, but it's going to be awkward and involve a lot of walking. Go to Posporia and make your way to the Fairy Village, and speak to the Chief. His room is highlighted with a red ! mark. Apparently the bears have taken Repre away from the Fairies. You can't take the cannon in the Fairy Village to the Kuma village...of course, and you cannot use either of the Fairy Fort Cannons, so you must walk. You can just go back to town and revisit if you prefer, but the walk to the entrance to Posporia makes this just as long a journey. Anyhow after talking the Fairy chief the balance of power changes, and you can walk north to the bears territory from the Middle Battlegrounds. When you arrive at Kuma Village South you will be blocked by a guard. Speak to him and he demands a Hot Salad to let you through. When you eventually reach the village, walk towards the chief's house and there will be a scene with Repre, and then a final one with the Fairy Chief (no more walking is required, you'll be pleased to hear!) That completes the quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PAMELA'S DEATH Client : Eva, Tavern Objective: Listen to Eva's favor and then visit Pamela. Rank : 10 A Reward : Quest Points 150, Glasses x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel Visit Eva at the Tavern and she'll explain that she is curious about how Pamela died and became a ghost. (So are we all!) Obviously there is only one way to find out and that's to ask Pamela, so once again head out to Grimoire Library, and you should know the route like the back of your hand by now. She tells you to find her diary which is in the Underground area. (You can leave Grimoire and return if you wish, or just walk back to the ground floor and then head right to the UG entrance.) You'll see a red ! mark in the UG 2F area. This is reached by walking along the UG path which goes left from the entrance to the area, and then up the Prison Path and through the second set of broken bars to the right into Nature's Prison. Break the boxes and descend to 2F. Break more rocks and walk to the right along the darkened path where you can light the fires using the Flame Barrett. Then go left through the broken bars and follow this path until you reach an opening into a watery and brighter area. Keep going to find the grave and diary. Immediately after this you will be back with Pamela in the library, so if you want to do anything else down here, make sure to leave this until last. This is the end of the quest, and you don't have to revisit Eva. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SWORD OF DAKASCUS Client : Noella, Master's Office Objective: Go to see her and get a sword for her from Dakascus. Rank : 10 A Reward : Quest Points 300, Heaven's Book x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel This appears before the Chief's Meeting quest and is a good one to take, as you can pick up lots of useful items in Dakascus and get another recipe. Check your map to see a red ! mark at the final room at the bottom of the Crystal Valley West map. Simply head west from the first Pengie, and then south when you reach that map. You will be able to swordslash all the small enemies along the way to the Sword Memorial. When you arrive click on the sword to obtain it. Then return to town and take the sword to Noella to complete the quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- YOUR LOVE Client : Pukko, Beastmen Quarters Objective: Listen to Pukko's concerns Rank : 10 B Reward : Quest Points 200, Bunny Ears x1 Unable to Cancel This quest involves a lot of walking back and forth but it's worth the effort. Talk to Pukko in his usual place in the Beastmen's Quarters, and then go and talk to Ewan in his room in the Scripture Library. Edge reassures Ewan that they got their information from an extremely unreliable source, just as well, since the idea of a 12 year old girl and Ewan is not a nice one, but don't worry, Phenyl resolves things in her usual way. Return to Pukko and now you have another target of his suspicions, Funan. Go and find him at the Westbridge, and Phenyl turns up again. Head back to Pukko who now thinks that Anna is Phenyl's favourite, and you get one of the best lines in the game from Edge. Now back to the Guild and speak to Anna, and finally return to Pukko to complete the quest. C O M B A T Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- KARROTATO TRADEGY Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Slay Golden Pig in Valtessa. 4 groups. Rank : 10 B Reward : 9000 Cole, Globeball x3 * Purple Monsters * Repeatable Head for the Forest Depths and you will find Purple enemies in the second room and thereafter. They are also in the Poison Altar room. The Golden Pigs might be alone or accompanied by Jin Riders or Jagged Bears. If Nell has her Siren Blades she can steal Golden Meat from the pigs, although this doesn't always work, and you have a better chance of success if you use a burst. Though even that might not work as they seem to be very resistant to stealing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SHROOM OUT OF PLACE Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Wandering Fungol found in Grimoire. Rank : 10 B Reward : 16000 Cole, Thunder Summoner x1 Recipe Phenyl will remind you that a Mushroom can heal itself, and you had better take note! This enemy is easy to find. Simply go to the UG Grimoire and up the Prison Path on the way to the Pengie Village. He is waiting for you next to the far wall of the first room that leads off to the right, called Nature's Prison. o------------------------------------------o | BOSS - WANDERING FUNGO | |------------------------------------------| | Location: Nature's Prison, Grimoire UG | | Protections: Special Double, Electricity | | Weakness: Fire | | Skills: Poison Blow, Self heals | o------------------------------------------o You really need equipment that resists poison and weapons that target his Fire weakness. This is not an easy fight if you are ill-prepared, because of the repeated self healing and poisoning your team. He heals himself for around 2500 HP each round, so if you are having to heal from poison while trying to rack up the burst gauge he can easily recoup his health. The best way to prevent this is to stop him from having a turn by racking up the skill gauge fast with Fire attacks, and using Diemia with Iris. Divine Shields can block an attack. Now here's something useful. If you get poisoned and think you've run out of healing items, (oops), check the green question mark for your battle items and you'll find Eicheloa, lots of them no doubt, and this item heals poison, although it does not heal HP. Make sure to heal from poison immediately. I wasn't prepared for this fight, of course, and had Edge with the least useful Blade Fanatos, and for various reasons he died and I had run out of nectars. Meant to buy some and forgot. So I just went ahead with the other two and he did his automatic reincarnation which was nice. I used Sacrifice after Edge came back from the dead, to revive Iris (who had also died by this point) and fortunately she had Raise, so we were back in business! In the end I got fed up with this fight and my lack of killer burst moves, so I used Iris' Faustus summon to remove all his traits. After that, with a bit of Jiptus and Diemia from Iris and Godly Beam from Edge, he was soon dispatched. My Team were level 29 for this battle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUPREME GEM Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Kill Orb monster x 10. Any Location. (Dakascus) Rank : 10 A Reward : 6500 Cole, Gravity Stone x3. * Repeatable They can be found in Dakascus North area inside some small white enemies. They resist magic attacks but are weak to Electricity based weapons. A trip to this area is useful for obtaining more Gravity Stones from bags as well as the reward. They are also found in Ishtar in various areas, including the third Level Terrace. Various rewards for repeated quests: 6100 Cole, Holy Emblem x6, 6700 Cole, Apple of Youth x1. (Kill 8 was the first of these.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TRIBAL CODE Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Kobold Fugitive found in Dakascus. Rank : 10 A Reward : 17000 Cole, Stellar Rune x1 Recipe This enemy is found in Dakascus Crystal Valley North in the large L shaped room which is the fourth one on the map. Go left at the junction in this room and he is waiting at the top of the slope. o---------------------------------------------o | BOSS - FUGITIVE KOBOLD | |---------------------------------------------| | Location: Dakascus, Crystal Valley N. | | Protections: Special/Status/Physical/Double | | Weakness: Beast | | Skills: Boomerang Shot, Quick, Kobold Aerial| | Kobold Bound (all) | o---------------------------------------------o Okay so he's a small Kobold, and that means, as a beast, you could use weapons that target this weakness which might not be a bad plan since he's doubly resistant to everything except magic. Otherwise just use magic on him. Iris' Jiptus summon is useful to reduce his spirit and power as he can inflict a lot of damage with his Boomerang Shot. If he gets in a Kobold Bound attack as well, with Quick you could find yourself in trouble. If you have Edge with Luplus you can Slow him down, though this doesn't prevent him from using his Quick skill. With the wrong Blades set up this battle might take up to three bursts to defeat him. Nell would be best with a magic based Blades, Siren or Nymph so she can heal, and make sure at least one person has the Raise skill...just in case. The Delay+ (L) Property is also handy in this battle in forcing the Kobold's card back on the ACCB. F E T C H Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DRESSING UP Client : Manna, Grocery Store Objective: Silmarillion x4 will be needed Rank : 10 A Reward : Gravity Stone x3, Chaos Candy x5 ((Holy Emblem x6 for one repeat and Holy Emblem x8 Chaos Candy x5 for another.) * Repeatable You should already have at least one of these from the reward for the Grow, Dear Youth Hagel quest, but you will still have to make more. The easiest and cheapest way to make these is with Altena Soul as the first item, Holy Emblem as the second and then Magic Silver Ingot and Gravity Stone. Go to Dakascus if you need more Gravity Stones. Original Recipe: Legendary Stone Items Needed: o Altena Soul/Amulet/Fungo Charm/Silmarillion o Brilliant Stone/ Pentagle/Holy Emblem Magic Silver Ingot Gravity Stone The recipe for Legendary Stone was a Quest reward for completing The Squawk Chief quest in Chapter 7. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MAKING A CASTLE Client : Ella, Rio Book Store Objective: Feudal Snackcastle x1 will be needed. Rank : 10 A Reward : Fragment of Aion x3, Dragon Tongue x3 Ella gives some great rewards for her quests, and you should make sure to complete this one. Using the Cheesecake (Mana item) recipe, select Cheesecake for the first item, then Flour, Super Nectar and Taiyaki, and make Feudal Snackcastle. You'll see that there are no substitutions for this recipe, and it uses the precious Super Nectar, but it's worth doing this quest since you get more Fragments of Aion, which are ingredients for the Super Nectar. Taiyaki was a reward for the Want Good Soup quest in the last chapter so you should have some of these. If not, then they are also a treat from Sandfish and Sand Dragon enemies in Dakascus, and a 10000 point field bonus reward for Posporia. Original Recipe: Derived from Cake Items Needed: Cheesecake Flour Super Nectar Taiyaki ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MEMORY CALLS Client : Gregor, 2nd Level South, Ishtar Objective: Refrain Memory x9 will be needed. Rank : 10 A Reward : Elixir x1, Crown Breastplate x1 The Refrain Memory is derived from the Water of Lethe recipe, and you should have already found the recipe for this, but now you must make a lot of them. Worth it for the hard to make and rare item Elixir. NOTE: I accepted this quest but did not complete it until the next chapter when I also had the Gold quest from Gregor. This saves that little bit of effort involved in going all the way to Gregor twice instead of just once. Original Recipe: Derived from Water of Lethe Items needed: Water of Lethe Medicine X X-Jar Cure Jar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- YOUTH, AND ITS END Client : Hagel, Weapon Shop Objective: Take him Shroom Juice x 30 Rank : 10 A Reward : Shining Grail x1, Alberich x3 (The rewards appear as ????) (May not appear until chapter 9.) Easy to complete so long as you have enough Mysterious Seeds. If not, just buy them from the Beastmen's Quarters shop, as you should have plenty of cash by this point in the game, and it saves a lot of bother. The recipe is any mushroom for the first ingredient, Bitter Grape, MELTY SPRING WATER! and finally Mysterious Seed. The rewards are very rare items so try to complete this quest. (And yet again I did not have enough MSW...) =============================================================================== C H A P T E R E I G H T : M I S S I O N - Sisters =============================================================================== RAIDE RANK -11 VORTEX. Provisions: X Heal x5, Cure Jar x10, Apple of Youth x3. When you rank up there will be a scene in Grimoire Bell Tower where the next Gem appears, and this is followed with a scene in the Guild. You are instructed to go and see Ewan at the Scripture Library. He is waiting for you and tells you that this might be a trap, but as Nell says...act before you think! Though you might want to save before setting forth. Crush the boulders at the entrance and climb to the second floor. Follow the main passageway through 2F Inner South heading right, and through the opening at the end to 3F Inside. Again walk right following the path until you reach the second switch and stairs up. There is a healing place here, so ensure you use it and that your Skill Gauge is above the default. You will meet a familiar person here, Yula of course, who foolishly thinks she has a chance to beat your team. o----------------------------------------------------------o | BOSS - YULA | |----------------------------------------------------------| | Location: Castle Roof Inside, Grimoire Castle, Top Floor | | Protections: Special Double, Status Double | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Scarlet Surge, Haste, Grand Quake (timed), | | Beat Down (one), Killer Quake (one) | | Drops: None | o----------------------------------------------------------o She starts the battle with a kind of boost: this is Scarlet Surge and later in the battle this gives her Haste and she may also use Grand Quake, which is a strong timed attack against everyone. Her single person attack will do around 30-40 HP damage when curtailed by Iris; Jiptus.summon, so make sure to use this early on in the battle. Killer Quake hurts one for around 70+ HP. Gain a burst as soon as you can and keep healed. This is easy enough with any Blades, but Jiptus Blades for Edge is especially useful for the Soul Burst, and you should be able to beat her in two bursts or so. I hoped she'd join the group after this but she didn't. :( While you're here exit the Roof and flip the switch, then return and walk left and over the stopped cogs to pick up a couple of bags of Blue Pearls and/or Pendelook. Enemies will re-spawn as well. Re-set the switch, and this time carry on right and over the cogs to reach the outside, where Iris takes the seventh and penultimate gem. After this battle my levels were 30 for everyone. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R N I N E .....................................................C09 =============================================================================== o----------------------------------o | Quests - Target Points 1500 | | Raider Rank - VORTEX 11 8000 | |----------------------------------| | An Alterworld Map 300 points | | An Easy Request 200 points | | Battlefield Idol 150 points | | Confession 200 points | | Curious Treasure 200 points | | Kittens Need A Home 200 points | | Memorable Sword 200 points | | Sad Angel 150 points | o----------------------------------o. o RECIPES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Borot [Quest reward - Fool's Treasure] - Brogius [Quest reward - Memorable Sword] - Engagement Ring [Quest item - Confession] - Green Board [Quest reward - An Alterworld Map] - Nell Lance [Quest reward - Twinshade Demon] - Staff of Creation [Quest reward - Red-Haired Beast] =============================================================================== C H A P T E R N I N E : W A L K T H R O U G H =============================================================================== There are two scenes at the start of this chapter, after which you will be inside the Guild. Take all the Quests from the board. ====== Quests ====== Kittens Need a Home, Complaints Exploded, Big Puni Research, Demon Subduction, Sad Angel, Your Love, Memorable Sword, Red-Haired Beast were all on the board. Talk to Anna for the Sad Angel quest and see Noella as well before you leave and head back to the workshop to save and sort out all these quests. Another two will appear quickly, at least if you complete one or two first, and these are battlefield Idol, another one involving Repre and making Gold for Gregor. The Wedding Dress quest does not appear until after completing a number of others, but you won't be able to craft it unless you do the Confession quest from Winna. He will give you the recipe for the Engage Ring at the start of this quest. Complete Noella's sword quest before Confession and In Memory will appear, and in any case you need the recipe from Noella to do this Hagel quest. I had a lot of trouble getting some quests to appear in my previous game, but this time I found that certain quests seem to trigger the appearance of new ones. Once you complete the Wedding Dress one then An Easy Request appeared, Youth and Its End (which I was expecting to see in chapter 8), and Reize's Curious Treasure. Take every quest even if you cannot complete them all. I was running out of available quest points by this stage of the chapter. Noella;s dinner appeared after doing many other quests. Valtessa Red-Haired beast is found in Valtessa and so you can complete this quest and Sad Angel at the same time. Grimoire Twinshade Demon and Winna's Confession quest. Ishtar Gregor's Gold quest is essential for a recipe and 3 Super Nectars, and you can complete the fighting quest of Demon Subduction at the same time. Posporia Battlefield Idol with Repre could be done at the same time as the Big Puni Research. Dakasucs There is the final quest from Repre and some combat quests, and of course you will need to buy more MELTY SPRING WATER from the shop if, like me, you never have enough of the stuff. Valtessa You can take Rufina's quest, Sad Angel and Scarlet, a combat quest. ======= Alchemy ======= After completing Noella's Memorable Sword quest.make the Brogius weapon using familiar ingredients: Altena Ingot, Divine Shield and Altena Soul, or choose alternatives to give you different properties. You can select Atk + (L) for example, but this weapon only has 2xHIT so it's not a great one to use, but that doesn't matter, as you want to use it for the Deus Ex Machina which has 7xHITs, and the Junk Borot, which has 5. Make three Brogius, and make sure you get your preferred properties for the first one, and then you can substitute less rare ingredients for the other two and keep the same properties. Then use one for the Deus Ex Machina, one for the Junk Borot and keep the third for a Hagel quest: In Memory. Nell's Comet recipe requires an Engage Ring for the final item so you can only make this one after receiving the recipe from Winna which he gives you at the start of his Confession quest. Because this weapon uses other weapons for two of the ingredients it means that you have a range of possible properties for it. The main problem is to decide which would be best. However, since this weapon only has one hit, you might not want to use it all despite it's attack power. Staff of Creation needs Gold for the first ingredient, Long Pochy (or alternatives) for the second and Diamond Dust for the last. Verdure Tablet (the Green Board recipe) also needs Gold, but with the Rank Up provisions you should be good for making another one. (I had run out of Dragon's Tongues for this, which prompted a quick trip to the UG of Grimore.) Craft the Crown Breastplate for Edge: this is his best armor so choose the property wisely, but Quick is a good choice. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R N I N E - R A I D E R R A N K : 1 1 =============================================================================== N O R M A L Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AN ALTERWORLD MAP Client : Anna Objective: Go to Anna and then complete an exploration of every room in every Alterworld. Rank : 11 S Reward : 300 Quest Points, Green Board x1 Recipe. First speak to Anna and you will end up in Noella's office where she explains this quest. You are asked to complete the mapping of every Alterworld, which sounds simple enough. Visit every Alterworld, and when you enter there will be a scene where everyone reminisces about the 'good ole days' in that world, if you have already completed the exploration. If not, then find the missing room/s! You can check the Alterworlds section of this FAQ to see which, if any, you might have missed. When you have completed them all, return to speak to Noella. If you think that you have done them all and can't get the reward, then this means you missed one! Look at the quest menu page to see them all listed: Also, if you think you have completed all the maps but when you enter the Alterworld nothing happens, then that means you are wrong. I was sure I had completed everything for this FAQ, but when I went back to Dakascus I discovered there was a room I had missed, one of those which required a Breath of Earth to enter. The Alterworlds will be listed in whatever order you complete them, and you can finish them all and avoid reporting back to Noella if you want to wait a while, or complete other quests in order for the mission to trigger. Valtessa Grimoire Posporia Dakascus Ishtar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AN EASY REQUEST Client : Eva Objective: Deliver card to Meyna. Rank : 11 D Reward : 200 Quest Points, Odysseus Sword Do as many quests as possible before completing the final quest points ones, and return to the Guild to find an important one from Eva. Unfortunately it only appears late on in the chapter, so you may have a number of quest point quests you could select to complete. You can accept them, but don't finish them if you want this one to appear. If you take a points quest you may end up missing this one, and it never returns! Visit the Tavern for a scene and Eva asks you to give a card to Meyna. You might think to find Meyna at her usual place by the memorial, but that would be too easy. If you speak to the man at the door of the tavern he will say she has been in the Guild and item shops, and indeed you can find her in the Guild standing next to the two empty chests to the right. After seeing Meyna Iris will suggest making a cake for her, and Nell comes up with the recipe. Long Pochy, Concentrated Honey, and a Feudal Snackcastle are needed to make the cake.(Make sure you also have a Laughing Shroom and a Vanilla Syrup as well if you want to see the alternative scene.) Once you have everything then a scene will start when you enter the workshop. If you don't have all the ingredients then you won't get the scene, so make sure to find them all. If you have to make the Feudal Snackcastle first then leave the workshop after crafting and re-enter to start the cake making scene. You have the option to add Vanilla Syrup. Say no and Nell continues to add secret spice: Laughing Shroom, and this leads to a scene where the Edge is suffering from poison. Say yes to the Vanilla and she will still ask about the Laughing Shroom. Refuse to add the Shroom and the dialogue at the party is different - about the cake being too sweet. Choose to add both the Vanilla Syrup AND the Laughing Shroom for the Ultimate Cake! (But the result is the same as if you only added the Shroom...I was expecting something good from the Ultimate Cake. Oh well.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BATTLEFIELD IDOL Client : Repre, Hot Springs, Posporia Objective: Listen to Repre's favor Rank : 11 S Reward : Quest Points 150, Apple of Youth x3 Unable to Cancel Before starting this quest make sure you have crafted an Idol Costume. This will save you an extra trip. After her travels back and forth between the Fairies and Bears, Rufina is back at her usual spot by the tree in the Neutral Baths area. Take the right hand path from the Middle Battlegrounds and then when you arrive at the baths follow the upper path to find her. The Fairies and Kuma are still fighting over Repre it seems and your task is to put a stop to this once and for all. Yes, I am sorry to say, but that involves visiting both Chiefs once again. The good news is that you can use all the Cannons so just make your way to one of the villages and then use the cannon there to get to the other one. After this there will be a scene with the Fairies and Bears and the next task is to make and Idol Costume for Repre. (This is not stated as such, but you will see the instructions in the Quest in Progress details.) You will be back at the Middle Battlegrounds after the Chiefs' Meeting, so either leave the Alterworld if you have to make one or, if you have one already, then simply speak to one of the chiefs. I thought that leaving and returning might be the faster option, but this time there is no helpful quick teleport to the one of the villages. More walking, but at least after giving the costume to one of the Chiefs you get the full concert and the end of the quest. You will be at the watchtower entrance so it's easy enough to take the cannon back to the Giant Tree if you have any unfinished business there, such as the Giant Puni quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONFESSION Client : Winna Objective: Go to Winna in the Scripture Library Rank : 11 S Reward : 200 Quest Points, Alberich x2 (Engagement Ring Recipe) Speak to Winna in the Scripture Library and he will give you the recipe for the Engagement Ring. Make two of these: one for Winna and one for the Wedding Dress quest.This recipe is essential if you want to make the Wedding Dress armor. You will have had the recipe (a derived one) for a long time, and noticed that the item requires Engage Ring as the last ingredient. To make an Engage Rings you require a Healing Bracelet, Brilliant Stone, Altena Ingot and Polishing Powder. (There are no substitutions.) Make two if you can, so you can complete this quest and have a spare for the Wedding Dress. After giving the Ring to Winna he asks you to escort him to see Pamela. Simply enter the portal and he will join you. The library will be marked on the map but you will know the way to it by now. As soon as you turn the corner in the library area there will be a scene with Pamela, and when this is complete that's the end of the quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CURIOUS TREASURE Client : Reize, Dakascus Oasis Objective: Help Reize Rank : 11 A Reward : Quest Points 200, Junk Borot x1 (Weapon) Unable to Cancel Visit Reize at the Oasis, and at long last he will ask you to open the chest. There is a monster inside as you might expect, but it's only a Kettle Spirit. This is weak to fire and double resists magic, and can be destroyed in one Diemia summon from Iris if you want to go for overkill, or any other attack that is not magic. After a scene with Reize you will complete the quest. (There was a long pause and a scene appeared with Ash surrounded by monsters at the Giant Tree. I had 300 quest points left to go for the chapter, so this might be the trigger for that scene.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- KITTENS NEED A HOME Client : Papal, Fountain Area Objective: Talk to Papal Rank : 11 B Reward : Quest Points 200, Dunkelhite x2 Unable to Cancel As soon as you arrive at the Fountain area in town there will be a scene with Papal. Your task is to find homes for Gon kittens. Carry on up to the Guild and find Phenyl who will take one, and then walk right from the Guild (the path to the Tavern) where a Raider Man will accept a kitten. Then go left from the Guild and an un-named Lady takes another. Keep walking left towards the shops and over the bridge where the "Cape Girl" will stop and ask for one. Now you'll be back with Papal and that's the end of the quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MEMORABLE SWORD Client : Noella Objective: Go to Noella and then do as she asks and go to Dakascus Rank : 11 S Reward : 200 Quest points, Brogius x1 Recipe Unable to Cancel First of all talk to Noella and then go to the Library and speak to Ewan about the sword. Revisit Noella, only to find that she has gone for a walk. Now you must return to the place in Dakascus where you found the Sword There is a red mark on the map (Crystal Valley West). Walk to the room before the Pengie village and head west across the bridge. Then walk south and west again to last room. When you arrive wait for the scene to end and return to town, (or complete any other quests or field bonuses in Dakascus). Finally go back to the Guild, and speak to Noella. After another couple of scenes you will be back outside the Guild and the quest will be completed. Head back to the workshop to make the Brogius! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SAD ANGEL Client : Anna, Guild Reception Objective: Go to Anna at the counter, and then to find Rufina in Valtessa. Rank : 11 A Reward : Quest Points 150, Globeball x3 Find Rufina in her usual spot in the first room down from the beginning of the Forest Depths. She will run away, and no it's nothing to do with Edge, despite Nell's insinuations. Follow her and if you look at your map you'll see a new message on the first map, so you must go back here and then north to the fishing spot. From the lake walk right and she is waiting for you on the ledge, but she will run off again. Now return to the first room of the Forest Depths where she is waiting by a tree. (You can't miss her). This time she will speak and run off once more, back to her original room so follow her, and fight an Owlbear. After the scene return to town and Edge will say that he wants to make a present for Rufina. A Pyre Blade seems an odd gift for a girl, but this is what you must craft. Go back to Valtessa to take her this gift and you don't have to walk all the way this time. Finally report back to Anna to complete the quest. You can leave and return at any point during this quest if you want, and she will be at the next area of this chase_an_angel adventure. C O M B A T Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BIG PUNI RESEARCH Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Giant Puni x 7 needed Rank : 11 A Reward : 6800 Cole, Gravity Stone x6 * Repeatable. These are NOT the large red enemies in the Kuma ??? area. But you can find them in The Giant Tree in Posporia. If you also take on the repeat Festival Preparation quest to defeat Jin Riders, you can do both at once. Alternatively they are found in Dakascus in the Northern CV, but that's a long way to go and you never know which enemy to attack. At the Tree they are not common enemies, but can be found inside some large red blobs but not blue blobs, and I didn't find any in the white blobs. This is quite a frustrating quest, and it would have been a lot better if they had been purple blobs. I only managed to find two in one trip during this chapter, but they seemed to be more plentiful in the next chapter. You can start the quest now, and complete it later when you revisit the Giant Tree for the Thief of the Century quest in Chapter 10, though you may need a third visit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DEMON SUBDUCTION Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Slay Darkness demons on 2nd Level Terrace, Ishtar. 6 groups Rank : 11 D Reward : 9000 Cole, Fragment of Aion x2 * Purple Monsters * Repeatable 5x These are purple blobs and found at the 2nd Level Terrace North, that is reached by climbing the first vine in the Woofer Village and then heading left along the large pipe. They are Shadow Legiens and weak to electricity, sometimes appearing as single enemies or accompanied by Shadow Girls and Death Knight. You will find that there are only 4 or 5 groups in this first area but if you continue through the teleporter and past the ice blocks, following the route to Gregor, and then through the next teleporter there are more purple enemies here at 2nd Level Terrace South. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RED-HAIRED BEAST Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat Scarlet. Found in Valtessa Rank : 11 A Reward : 18000 Cole, Staff of Creation x1 Recipe Look on your map and you can see that Scarlet in somewhere in the Forest Depths. In fact he/she in at the Tree room. o---------------------------------------------o | BOSS - SCARLET | |---------------------------------------------| | Location: Valtessa, Forest Depths, Tree | | Protections: Special, Fire and Magic Double | | Weakness: Beast | | Skills: Slam (one, Spirit Down), Counter | o---------------------------------------------o This is a bear so you could go for a Blades which allows a Beastslayer weapon Plua has Wind Slicer, but I wanted to test out the Deus Ex Machina having just made it, so opted for Edge with Normal Blades for a change, and Nell with Faustus using the Junk Borot for the same reason. Don't equip weapons with Fire as he is doubly resistant to that element. He can attack one person for over 160 HP damage and his Slam attack cannot be avoided and inflicts spirit down. His can adopt the Counter form so he will automatically counter, but he can't counter a timed attack so Edge with normal blades is a reasonable choice for this fight (When he does this skill he automatically heals even if cursed, which I thought was a bit cheap, after using Forgetful Hammer, but then of course the game description of this as CURSE is incorrect. The attack has the effect of Sealing magic. Use Diemia summon with Iris as her only physical attack. You could poison or curse him if you like, and any Blades will do the job. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TWINSHADE DEMON Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Twin Demons. Found in Grimoire Rank : 11 A Reward : 20000 Cole, Nell Lance x1 Recipe The location is marked on the Grimoire map as the Top Floor. To reach this, bash the rocks to the second floor and follow the path to the third floor and continue to the roof and top floor. The enemy is waiting to the right of the opening. o--------------------------------------------o | BOSS - UNDARK | |--------------------------------------------| | Location: Grimoire, Top Floor | | Protections: Special and Ice Double, Magic | | Weakness: Unholy | | Skills: Slashback, Sword Slicer | | (defense down) | o--------------------------------------------o o--------------------------------------------o | BOSS - DEHOLY | |--------------------------------------------| | Location: Grimoire, Top Floor | | Protections: Special and Fire Double, | | Physical | | Weakness: Unholy | | Skills: Heal All | o--------------------------------------------o These two lasses are tough since they have different protections. Deholy is resistant Ice and magic, and Undark is resistant to Fire and physical attacks. You could use Iris's Faustus summon to remove the traits from Undark at least, though Deholy will resist that magic. Use Jiptus as usual which will help a little. You can also use forgetful hammer on Deholy if Nell has Faustus Blades equipped. Weapons that target unholy would help too. Deholy can use Heal All which gives them around 2500 HP. Their ordinary attacks will inflict around 70-80 HP damage on one person, and Meteor does around 30-50 depending on equipment. They are fast and will probably act before you do summoning Meteor, a powerful timed attack. You can remove the time cards if Edge has Luplus equipped, but if not make sure someone can heal everyone. Target Deholy first as soon as you get a burst, and then go after Undark. Report back to Phenyl for the rewards. My team were Level 31 for this fight. F E T C H Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOELLA'S DINNER Client : Eva, Tavern Objective: Give Golden Meat x2 to Eva Rank : 11 C Reward : Dunkelhite x2 Silmarillion x3 Golden Meat is obtained from Golden Pigs, and the easiest way to obtain these is to use Nell's Team Kobold steal attack with the Siren Blade. This doubles your chances of getting the drop, because you can steal an item AND have the enemy drop it as well. This is a useful quest to complete for the rewards, and the Silmarillion can be used to complete a repeat quest from Manna. You can find Golden Pigs inside small blobs in Northern Dakascus, and Ishtar. Visit the Tavern and give the two Golden Meat to Eva to complete the quest. (By the way, if you have also accepted An Easy Request from Eva, but not yet started it, then as soon as you visit the Tavern that quest will activate. After the scene finishes, then speak to Eva again for this quest.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IN MEMORY Client : Hagel, Weapon Store Objective: Take him a Brogius Rank : 11 S Reward : Glittering Thread x7, Gravity Stone x7, (Star Prism 1, Blue Pearl x15 - rewards vary for repeat quests.) * Repeatable Make another Brogius and give it to Hagel. You must first do the Memorable Sword quest for Noella to receive the recipe for the Brogius. Original Recipe: Brogius Items Needed: Altena Ingot o Divine Shield/Star Prism/Moon Prism o Altena Soul/Pendelook/Glittering Thread/Blue Pearl ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HAPPY WEDDING Client : Yach, General Store Objective: Take him Wedding Dress x1 Rank : 11 S Reward : 110000 Cole, Alberich x2 You must have completed the Confession quest for Winna in order to obtain the Engage Ring recipe which enables you to make the Wedding Dress. Make the dress using Huffin Blossom, White Separates/Heaven's Feel/Formal Fabric, Chrome Crystal/Blue Pearl/Brilliant Stone/Pentagle, and Engage Ring as the final ingredient. Take the dress to Yach to complete this quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOOL'S TREASURE Client : Gregor, 2nd Level South, Ishtar Objective: Take one bar of Gold to Gregor. Rank : 11 S Reward : Borot x1 Recipe, Super Nectar x3 To make Gold you require a Ruby Prism and Philosopher's Ash. To make another Ruby Prism you need Aroma Material, Brilliant Stone, Dunkelhite and Dragon Tongue, and to obtain another Aroma Material (an Accessory) you need Brilliant Stone, Pentagle, Healing Bracelet and Salt. The awkward one to obtain is the Healing Bracelet for which you need a Super Nectar. I just used one I had already made and equipped, because I could make more after completing the quest. If you don't have one to spare then you will at least be comforted by the fact that you will be able to make more after receiving the 3 Super Nectars that are the reward for this quest. Take the Gold to Gregor and see if you can pick up any repeatable combat quests such as Angered Holy Angel for Ishtar while you are there. You could also complete the Demon Subduction quest at the same time as these purple enemies are found on the route to Gregor. Gregor is found by climbing the first vine in the Woofer Village and then walking left along the pipe and following the path to the teleporter. Then flame the ice and walk up to the top of the path where he waits beside the next teleporter. NOTE: Beware of fighting the large red enemies on the path up to Gregor on 2nd Level Terrace South, as in this chapter they might include an Ancients or Fran Pfeil. These are powerful enemies with strong magic attacks, however the dragon is weak to ice, and Ancients is weak to electricity. (You can obtain an Ultra-Thin Leotard from Ancients and Dragon's Tongue from Fran Pfeil, so it might be worth the trouble!) =============================================================================== C H A P T E R N I N E : M I S S I O N - Obstacles Overcome =============================================================================== RAIDER RANK 12 TEMPEST Collect your provisions: Heal All x10, Super Nectar x5, Elixir x1. The mission starts with a scene in Noells's room and you are told to head to the top of the Giant Tree in Posporia. Walk right from the Middle Battlegrounds to the Cannon south of the Neutral Baths room, at Bow Won's shop. When you arrive check the map and you'll see the red exclamation mark on the room at the very top of map/tree. Simply make your way to the this room. Once you reach the last room of the middle area there is a healing spot next to a large red blob. Make sure you have some skill points to spare and then continue up the log for a scene with Ash. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - ASH | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Giant Tree, Posporia | | Protections: Special and Status Double | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Sword Wave (damage to all) | | Break (attacks one) | o----------------------------------------o I used Jiptus with Edge and and Nell with Diemia, just for a change, and you can use any attacks you like for this fight as it is very easy to win. Just one or two bursts should do it. But that's only the start. Now for the real battle! Annoyingly you don't get to keep your Burst Gauge so start from scratch again. It will help if you have some skill points left from the previous fight. o--------------------------------------------o | BOSS - ASH 2 | |--------------------------------------------| | Location: Giant Tree | | Protections: Special/Double, Status/Double | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Liberate Limit (Haste) Twin Shot | | Break Rain, Deadly Bolt, | | Master Shift, Destructobalde | o--------------------------------------------o Twin Shot - hits one. Liberate Limit - increases speed. Master Shift - he completely blocks physical attacks. Destructoblade - when activated can do around 200 HP damage to one person, but he will lose the protection of the Master Shift. Break Rain - sword attack to all. Deadly Bolt - electric attack to one for around 200 HP. As usual summon Jiptus with Iris to lower his attack and then concentrate on building up the burst gauge. You are likely to suffer some serious damage from his attacks so it helps if someone has the Heal All skill if you go with these attack Blades. A better set up for this mission is to have Edge with Plua and Nell with Siren so she can attack and heal. In another game I had Edge with the Quickstrike Blade (with First Strike) and Nell with Element Blaze, and both had Delay and Speed + (L). With this set up I had the first strike, and obtained a burst using Illusion Edge before Ash had his first attack. When he did get a turn he used the skills listed one after another leaving Iris with only 34 HP left! Destroblade does not block Kobold Hero or Nell's attacks and his attack using this multi-weapon can be automatically blocked by Plua. This time it took two bursts to win. After the Battle After the battle Ash explains a few things. A "Damned if you do and damned if you don't" kind of situation now faces you, but what the hell, might as well get the last gem, now you're here. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R T E N .......................................................C10 =============================================================================== o----------------------------------o | Quests - Target Points: None | | Rank: 12 TEMPEST | o----------------------------------o o AREAS OPENED IN THIS CHAPTER - Distorted Dimension (D.D.) o RECIPES OBTAINED IN THIS CHAPTER - Legendary Battleaxe [Quest reward - Magical Pot] - Shadow Gem [Quest recipe from Ewan - Truth in Darkness] =============================================================================== C H A P T E R T E N : W A L K T H R O U G H =============================================================================== When the chapter begins there are a number of scenes, and you will see that a hole has opened up in Zey Meruze which Iris says is the path to Uroborus. After this you will be outside the Workshop. You have now reached the highest Raider Rank and although there will be some more quests these are completely optional as you could enter the hole and the Distorted Dimension at the start of this chapter if you want to finish the game. However, you would miss some challenging battles and have to settle with the "Bad Ending". ================== Point of No Return ================== Water cannot be taken from the Fountain anymore, although you can still get some from the jetty beside the workshop. If you walk left from the fountain and then over the small bridge you can find the hole. However you first must speak to Noella before access is granted. This is just as well because the hole is the POINT OF NO RETURN! (Actually you CAN return to Zey Meruze for more quests even after entering the hole so long as you still have a save from the workshop, but that would mean losing all progress in the Distorted Dimension.) Tell Noella you are ready and you will all be at the hole. After this there are no more options and you will be inside the Distorted Dimension. ================================= Conditions for Good or Bad Ending ================================= DON'T charge off to the hole too quickly if you want the "Good" ending for the game. You require another quest "Truth in Darkness" and this will not show up immediately. This means that you will need to complete a few more quests first. If you don't intend to complete this quest then you can enter the Distorted Dimension whenever you like, and after defeating the final boss you will get the "Bad" ending. ====== Quests ====== There are no more Quest Point Quests in this chapter since Raider Rank 12 is as high as you can go, but there are a number of optional bosses to fight, and the one quest that will get you the good ending. If you didn't get the "An Easy Request" quest in the last chapter, it will appear now, as will Curious Treasure. Complete any quests left over from the last chapter, and check the board as usual, however you may find that there are no quests at all. If that's the case then wait until you have finished current quests, or cancel repeat ones that you don't need. The first Rank 12 quest that appeared this time was Thief of the Century, and after that more combat quests: Disposal Tactics and Mystery of Puni. Then yet more combat quests: Awakening and Doll Collection, and Magical Pot. Wait to get Dragon's Fall and you can do this together with Doll Collection as they both involve travelling to Crystal Valley North, Dakascus. I noticed that the later quests appear randomly, after saving and reloading to check on this, so you could try this trick if the one essential for the good ending does not appear, and you don't want to wait. Return of the Dragon only came up later in the chapter. Dragon's Fall appeared after completing the first two Puni quests, and The Last Hero, which entails beating the hardest boss in the game, will only appear after completing Mystery of Puni and is likely to be the last quest on the board, apart from repeats. ======= Alchemy ======= Check your lists for anything left uncrafted, and consider altering the properties for some equipment to help in the more difficult battles. Making the Astral Cane I put charge + L and Magic + L on the Skirnir's Staff, and then used this as the first ingredient for the Hermes Staff with the same properties and then used the Hermes Staff to make the Astral Cane. You might be happy with Guts on this, but this is the kind of fun fiddling around you can do to obtain the properties you want. Make Verdure Table, though you need Gold for this. It only has 2x HIT but you can add Hit +2 to it with judicious choice of ingredients (basically using another weapon with that property.) This is a useful weapon for Luplus with Edge as it targets Dragons. Craft Elixir and change the first ingredient to Super Nectar and with Alberich, Brilliant Stone and Goat Milk or Concentrated Honey you will get Shining Grail. ====== LEVELS ====== By the time you have completed most of the quests in the chapter your team should be at around level 34. This is fine if you want to finish the game, but to defeat the Super Mini Puni you might think to aim for higher, but in fact higher levels will take a long time to achieve, and you CAN beat the Mini Puni at level 34. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R T E N - R A I D E R R A N K : 1 2 =============================================================================== There will be a number of repeated quests in this chapter, both Combat and Fetch Quests, but only the new ones are listed here. G O O D E N D I N G Q U E S T ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TRUTH IN DARKNESS Client : Anna, Guild Reception Objective: Go to Anna, then to Crowley's Lab in Zey Meruze Rank : 12 S Reward : Money 200 Cole, Alchemist Staff x1 (weapon) Unable to Cancel Speak to Anna and then go to Crowley's House in Zey Meruze. If you remember, this is the ??? House on the path to the right of Ella's Bookstore. Proceed into the back room and click on the desk to find Crowley's Diary. Now go to Valtessa to the Forest Depths northernmost room, this is the Ruins place. As soon as you enter events will unfold leading to a battle. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - STONE EMPEROR | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Valtessa, Forest Depths | | Protections: Special and Status Double | | Physical | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Cliff Slicer | o----------------------------------------o His one person normal attack will do around 150 HP damage. Given his resistance to physical attacks I suggest only using Blades that are magic based. Diemia from Nell is no use here as it is a physical attack, but Fanatos (lighting) will hurt him for over 8000 HP if used at the start of a burst when he is still stunned. Edge with Luplus can cast slow, and Time Quake from Edge reduces magic defense so you can polish him off with only a couple of bursts with this strategy. The gem that was guarded by the Emperor is cracked, so next stop, Ewan. (This is a good time to do a bit of Puni bashing at the tree if you have the Mystery of the Puni quest.) Return home and talk to Ewan and he gives you the recipe for the Shadow Gem. Now make the Shadow Gem using the Broken Gem and a Ruby Prism. This is a Key Item and you will find the recipe listed under this heading. Make the Shadow Gem and there will be a scene. This is important if you want to understand the story, so pay attention! After viewing the scene the quest ends. C O M B A T Q U E S T S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AWAKENING Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Emperor of Hades! Found in Grimoire UG Rank : 12 A Reward : 2000 Cole, Saint's Garb x1 This enemy is found in the deepest part of Grimoire in UG 2F and in the right hand room as seen on the map, although there is no red mark. To get there break the boxes in the second Nature's Prison room off to the right of the Prison path. Break the boulders and walk right along the main path past 6 fires. The enemy is at the far right the room. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - EMPEROR OF HADES | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Grimoire, UG 2F | | Protections: Special and Status Double | | Weakness: Puni | | Skills: Puni Spike, Tera flame, Guts | | Drops: | o----------------------------------------o Puni Spike will damage one person for around 130-150. Teraflame is a fairly weak attack especially when Iris is equipped with the Celestial Robe which is doubly defended against both Fire and Ice. Nell can use the Scarlet Tail to defend against Fire or Feather Flow which defends against physical attacks. It is a Puni so equip Nell with the Chrysanthemum Puppet weapon and Faustus Blades. Edge could use Jiptus. You can use any attacks on him, but the final blow needs to be a strong one since he will use his automatic GUTS skill to stop you from killing him outright. Report back to Phenyl as usual for the rewards. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DISPOSAL TACTICS Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat Kamikaze Doll G. 9x needed. (Any location - Ishtar) Rank : 12 S Reward : 5600 Cole, Moon Prism x1/ (numbers and rewards vary for repeats * Repeatable You can find these in some white blobs in the 2nd Level Terrace N, in the area up the first vines from the Woofer Village. They are also found on the 3rd Level Terrace on the route to Sword Hill and to the pond, (up the two sets of vines to the teleporter). I found quite a few of them while on my way to beat Hell's Fran Pfeil, and on the path towards the second pond area. They will often appear in groups of three, so this quest can be completed fairly easily. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DOLL COLLECTION Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Stone puppet x7 (or x5) Found in Northern Dakascus. Rank : 12 S Reward : 6500 Cole, Dunkelhite x2. (Numbers and Cole vary for repeats) * Repeatable This only appeared after doing the Emperor quest in one game, and in another before it. They are found in the far north of Dakascus and are blue enemies. They are weak to electricity but even that doesn't do a lot of damage to them, and they resist physical attacks. Equip Nell with Siren and Element Blaze By the time you get to the location and have to fight loads of other blue blobs only to find that they do not contain the Stone Puppet it is easy to run out of time. A very frustrating quest. This quest can be repeated with 6 to be killed and the reward was 5100 Cole and ??? x5. Sorry, I lost patience with the repeat and don't know what the reward was. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DRAGON'S FALL Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Slay Dragons of Dakascus. 4/5 groups needed Rank : 12 D Reward : 10100 Cole, Holy Emblem x5 (Repeats: 11300 Cole, Dunkelhite x2) * Repeatable 5x * Purple Monsters You will find these purple enemies as soon as you enter the Crystal Valley North, wandering around the large room with the Hourglass in the middle. There are more of them if you continue into the next northern room. These enemies are called Dragonia and they come with a Fran Pfeil, Necrohydra or Dragon Zombie. Both Dragons are weak to any Dragonslayer weapon, or physical attack, since they are defended against magic. The Fran is weak to ice and the Zombie weak to fire so target these weaknesses to help build the gauge. You can also use Ark Coffin on the Dragonia to stop him from summoning Meteor, even though you cannot kill him with Crazed Burial. They are not really a boss, but what the hell: here's the lowdown on them. o--------------------------------------------o | BOSS - Dragonia | |--------------------------------------------| | Location: Dakascus, CV North | | Protections: Special Double, Magic | | Weakness: Dragon | | Skills: Meteor, (timed attack) Poison Blow | | Blizzard, | | Drops: Dragon Tongue | o--------------------------------------------o These are not easy battles to win especially as Dragonia can summon two meteors in one turn and then use Blizzard as well, so you need to keep everyone at full health to withstand the onslaught. You will need at least one burst to defeat it and preferably equipment that protects from fire and status effects. At least the Meteor attacks are timed so you have time to heal before they strike. Fight a weaker enemy after one battle to raise your skill gauge before taking on the next purple one. With a bit of luck you will find Stone Puppets in the blue blobs here for the Doll Collection quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MAGICAL POT Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat the Aladdin Pot in Ishtar Rank : 12 B Reward : 20000 Cole, Legendary Battleaxe x1 (Recipe for Odysseus). Before you can reach the teleporter to the First Level Terrace you must make sure that the Lithograph is set to RED for the future. You can easily check this by looking to see if the second is visible. If it isn't, then you know that the Lithograph is already set to RED and don't need to bother going to the Woofer Village to change it. From the Entrance area of Ishtar turn left and walk up the path past the sword that is now in the ground and to the teleporter that takes you to 1st level Terrace. Follow the path past the Lithograph and make sure it is set to RED for the future, to remove the boulder - which it will be assuming you got here by the normal route. Where the path divides head right (past where the boulder used to be) and the large red enemy is just past the spot where the boulder has disappeared. o----------------------------------------------------o | BOSS - ALADDIN POT | |----------------------------------------------------| | Location: Ishtar, First Level Terrace | | Protections: Special, Physical, Magic - all double | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Tempest (all), Pandora's Box | | (summons Ancients) | o----------------------------------------------------o I used Nell with Siren and Edge with Jiptus Blades for this battle. One of the nice things about the Pot is that his traits can be removed. This is the key to defeating him, since with double resistance to physical AND magic attacks it would be tough, if not impossible. I also like to poison him and Edge with Jiptus can do this, as well as equipping a weapon with Deadly Toxin: you can put Deadly Toxin on the Holy Halberd for Edge. Poison will cause the Pot to lose about 4500 HP each turn so as long as you can defend and heal and get rid of the Ancients you can win this battle without fail. Start with Iris using Faustus to remove the traits and then do the normal thing of building up the burst gauge. Nell with Siren is also good as she can be your main healer and boost defense. He will resist Faustus, but with a bit of luck you can be effective on the first turn, and if not keep trying until you are successful. His normal physical attack is nothing to worry about especially if you equip Nell with the Feather Flow armor. After removing traits use Jiptus with Iris. Tempest will do around 50 HP damage to everyone depending on your defense and having used Jiptus on him. After a couple of turns he will use Pandora's Box and summon an Ancients. She is weak to lightning, but has some devastating attacks - Vortex is a powerful wind attack on everyone, and Tera Flame a fire attack. She is also very fast and will be able to "haste" to get additional turns. The pot can continue to summon more and more Ancients! In burst mode you can destroy her with one Soul Burst, or use Fanatos from Iris, or Soul Eater with Frozen Shard from Nell's Siren Blade. It took only two bursts this time, one to defeat Ancients and the other to smash the Pot. Iris should have magic +(L) on on her cane to help with her summons, and you will probably be at Level 32 for this battle. All credit to GinFreaks for the strategy of removing traits. ALTERNATIVE STRATEGY Here's an even better strategy all credit to Kurama13. As already described, start with Iris using Faustus to remove traits, and then have Edge (equipped with the Jiptus blade) use Ark Coffin to capture the Pot. Finally, Edge should use Crazed Burial on the coffin and that should kill the Aladdin Pot. He won't even get a chance to summon the Ancients! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MYSTERY OF PUNI Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Puni x200 Rank : 12 S Reward : 1000 Cole, Dunkelhit x3. Go to Valtessa and kill the first blue enemy on the way in. The rest seem to be random, so just slash them. Then go to the Tree and kill more there. Only BLUE Punis count. Equip everyone with fire based weapons and Nell the Punislayer weapon and this gets you fast kills all the time so time passes slowly. (I equipped Edge with Shadow Dagger and Nell with Chrysanthemum Puppet, and Iris with Astral Cane for fast wins. You will probably need to use two visits, but that should be enough. Blue Punis appear about 50% of the time at the Tree, and you can also get a few Apple of Youth. I managed to get nine in one stint of Puni bashing. By the way, if you stand facing away from the tree at the left, your Hammer will still work and the bags will drop directly at your feet so you don't have to move to pick them up. Just saves a tiny bit of extra effort. You can easily do over 100 in one visit. Kill everything with fast kills to prolong the time and keep at it until the mist comes down. At least you can check for how many you have killed and do not have to keep count. This is also a good time to complete the hidden Field Bonus of keeping 9 Skill Gauges, if you have not yet done this, and the Bonus of two enemies dropped. Collect the reward and...another Darkness quest. (However, check back and the next Puni Quest will appear eventually.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PRAYER Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Slay Demons of Grimoire. 5 groups needed Rank : 12 C Reward : 10700 Cole, Dunkehite x2 (Repeated - 9700 Cole, Holy Emblem x5) * Purple Monsters * Repeatable 5 times The quest notes tell you that these are seen near Grimoire Treasury, which means they are inside it. Travel to Squawk Village and then to the Treasury Building in the North part of the village. The enemies come in groups with Shadow Legion, Elder or Orb together with one Hell Legion. Nell with Siren Blades and her Jyoya weapon which targets unholy enemies is a good choice, or any weapon that targets electricity, although the Blades don't really matter. If you can't find enough on the main floor they are also found in some of the side rooms. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - HELL LEGION | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Grimoire. Squawks' Treasury | | Protections: Special Double | | Weakness: Unholy, Electricity | | Skills: Nightmare (all - sleep) | | Drops: Gravity Stone | o----------------------------------------o This is not really a boss enemy but I thought you might appreciate some extra details. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PUNI BROTHERS FOREVER Client : Phenyl Objective: Defeat the Puni Brothers. Found in Valtessa Rank : 12 A Reward : 3000 Cole, 3 Super Nectar * Repeatable Head to the fishing spot in Valtessa where you fought them before. Equip Edge with Jiptus and Nell with Siren or Nymph. o-------------------------------------------------------------o | BOSS - PUNI TARO, JIRO, KICHI | |-------------------------------------------------------------| | Location: Valtessa, Fishing Spot | | Protections: Jiro - Magic, Special, Status - all Double | | Taro - Physical, Special, Status - all Double | | Kichi - Magic, Physical, Special - all Double | | Weakness: Puni | | Skills: Quick, Self heals for around 900 HP per turn, Guts | | Puni Spike, Puni Breath | o-------------------------------------------------------------o Kichi is at the top, Jiro in the middle and Taro at the bottom of your battle screen. All their attacks target only one person at a time. Their single person attack can inflict a lot of damage if your team are not protected or their strength has not been decreased. Puni Breath is a one person attack for around 100 HP if defended, but around 200 damage if lacking defense. They heal for around 1000 HP. Now there is a nice trick you can use for this battle IF you remove the traits from Kichi. He's the only one you do this with as he is not protected from Status attacks. First do this by summoning Faustus with Iris, and then use Ark Coffin on Kichi with Edge. After "coffining" Kichi you can use Crazed Burial on him and it's instant death! He resists trait removal because it is a magic based summons, but it has a good chance of success especially if used during a Burst. After that you can do anything you like to him! If you are having trouble removing his traits you can still use the Coffin on him but you won't be able to use Crazed Burial. After Kichi is defeated target Taro with Iris's Diemia summon and Edge's Soul Burst, and finally Jiro. You can build up the burst gauge on them both depending on whether a character has physical or magic attacks. Nell's Kobold Hero is good for stunning the Punis but be careful of their GUTS defense which will kick in at the end and can occur time after time. I used Siren with Nell, though Nymph might be better but I like the speed advantage of Siren especially while using Jiptus for Edge since he is slow. Edge had Delay and Speed and Iris has Charge and Magic with Nell having Magic and Charge and Delay and speed all + (L). Feather Flow armour on Nell helps too. Level 33 for this battle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RETURN OF THE DRAGON Client : Phenyl, Guild Reception Objective: Defeat Hell's Fran Pfeil. Found in Ishtar Rank : 12 S Reward : 25000 Cole, Dunkelhite x2 You can find this dragon on the third Level Terrace of Ishtar. From the Woofer Village climb both sets of vines, smash the rocks and the teleporter will take you to the 3rd Level Terrace. Make sure the Lithographs are RED before this, and then the tree that blocks the route to the right hand rooms will be gone. Head right as soon as you can, going along the narrow path until you reach the metal platform. Then jump through the opening and follow the large pipe to the north. Keep going until you arrive at Sword Hill where you will find the enemy. A normal Fran Pfeil is resistant to fire but weak to ice but this one lacks the ice weakness. However as a dragon it is weak to a Dragonslayer weapon such as Grand Viper for Jiptus with Edge, or Verdure Tablet with Luplus and Dragoneer for Diemia with Nell. If you go this route ensure that someone has the Healing Bracelet with Heal All and Glowing Bracelet with Raise. Equip Iris with the Celestial Robe to protect against Fire and Nell with Scarlet Tail. You could use Nell with Nymph for her healing and boosts. Make sure you don't equip anyone with a Fire based weapon! o------------------------------------------------o | BOSS - HELL'S FRAN PFEIL | |------------------------------------------------| | Location: Ishtar, Sword Hill | | Protections: Special,Status, Fire - all Double | | Weakness: Dragon | | Skills: Teraflame, Impulse | o------------------------------------------------o I started with Jiptus from Iris to be on the safe side, and then a defense boost from Nell. With these precautions his single ordinary attack will only do around 70 HP damage. You can also use Edge's Death Calls skill to help with the burst gauge. His attacks target everyone for around 70 HP damage depending on equipment and the use of Jiptus to weaken him, and double that if not, so keep an eye on his status and summon Jiptus again if you need to. Teraflame hurts a lot for anything up to 300 HP if you don't have Fire resistant equipment. Use Diemia with Iris and Soul Burst with Edge when you reach burst mode and keep healed at all times so you don't risk getting wiped out by his Teraflame attack. (Although he only did this twice in one battle.) It may take three or four bursts to defeat him. By the way some of the white blobs on the route contain Kamikaze Doll Gs if you have that quest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THIEF OF THE CENTURY Client : Phenyl Objective: Defeat the Kobold Kid. Found at the Giant Tree. Rank : 12 A Reward : 25000 Cole, Globeball x5 (Kid is good with numbers. Don't cry if you lose... Phenyl's inscrutable advice!) Walk right, through the Middle Battlegrounds to the Neutral Baths, and then down to the Bow to Wow shop, and take the Cannon to the Giant Tree. Head left and through the first opening in the tree which leads to the small room down from the second large room. The large monster will be found here. You will probably have to fight a large red enemy first as it blocks the path to the boss, or just engage it and run away. o----------------------------------------o | BOSS - KOBOLD KID | |----------------------------------------| | Location: Posporia, Giant Tree | | Protections: Special and Status Double | | Weakness: Beast | | Skills: Bite, Kobold Bound (all) | o----------------------------------------o The kid is fast with his guns...well, axe actually, and even though I had Edge with Plua he got in the first attack which damaged everyone for around 60 HP. He then had another attack after Edge so he really is VERY fast. Bite is a one person attack that can inflict around 150 HP damage. His normal one person attack can do around 60-70 HP damage, and he self heals each turn for around 900 HP. Kobold Bound hits everyone and will reduce the burst gauge by a significant amount. Have Iris summon Jiptus to lessen the force of his attacks, and summon it again when he recovers. She can also summon Luplus to speed up your team. Edge with Plua may be fast but the lack of killer moves makes this not the best blade to use for finishing him off quickly. At least ensure you have equipment with Delay + (L) and Speed + (L) as this can make quite a difference in this battle, and equip Nell with Feather Flow armor which defends against physical attacks. Otherwise it's just a matter of getting a burst and keeping everyone alive! My team were Level 32 after this battle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE LAST HERO Client : Phenyl Objective: Defeat the Super Mini Puni. Found in Valtessa Depths. Rank : 12 S Reward : 2800 Cole, x99 ??? (Crunchy Fruit) "Luck is always a strategy!" Psycho Penguin. NOTE: If you are having trouble triggering this quest, then, apart from completing the essential Mystery of the Puni, try and take on (and complete) some combat quests. Every time I write a FAQ for an RPG, there seems to be one enemy or item that eludes me and causes no end of trouble to defeat or find. With Atelier Iris 3 it's the *Mini Puni*, and when I started writing this section I had not defeated him despite countless attempts. (Seriously, I lost count.) However, persistence and some help from the AI3 GameFAQs board members and GinFreaks FAQ, paid off in the end, but really there seems to be a lot of luck involved and there is no guaranteed success first time. I have written a lot about this battle partly because it took me so long to defeat the damned thing, and partly because I hope to save you some pain if you decide to have a go. If you attempt this battle, make sure to save before starting out for Valtessa, and if you fail I'd suggest that you reload the save, even though a failure will not be Game Over. You will need your items and if you have used any of them in the battle then they will be lost forever if you don't reload. ------------- The Situation ------------- This Puni is alone to begin with, and he is very fast, with a devastating attack that can kill one character in one turn if you are unlucky or not at full health. He does not use any magic, but his physical attack can have the effect of dispelling any boost. He also has the skill Quick which randomly boosts his turn. After a certain time he will summon a clone, and with two fast and vicious Punis you don't stand a chance. The plan is to kill him before he can summon another one. o-----------------------------------------------------o | BOSS - *MINI PUNI* | |-----------------------------------------------------| | Location: Valtessa, Forest Depths | | Protections: Special, Status and Magic - all Double | | Weakness: Puni | | Skills: Vengeful Puni Attack, Quick, (Dispel) | | Self Heals for about 1400 HP each turn | | Vengeful Puni Summon - summons a clone | o-----------------------------------------------------o ------------------------- General Battle Strategies ------------------------- Before the starting the battle fight three or four enemies on the way to ensure that your skill gauge is at the maximum level of 9 before the battle begins. Don't forget that you can Defend if the Puni has the next turn and you cannot raise the Burst Gauge in time to stun him. This works well, (if you can call anything working well in this battle), because not only will the damage be less, but that character will quickly get another turn. Use the Unirus Lifeforms for fast filling of the burst gauge. The damage they do is negligible and the Puni resists their magic based attack but this does not matter. The aim is to fill the gauge as fast as possible. Also, if you use items for healing or attacking then your next turn will be faster than if using a skill, however you will not raise the skill gauge. This doesn't matter too much, as the main aim is to get a burst and then you will have the full 9 skill points available. ---------------- Winning Strategy ---------------- Equip Edge with Luplus Blades and Nell with Normal Blades, and if you have any doubts about this read through the reasons for this to save yourself a lot of unnecessary trouble. Make sure everyone has the best equipment with a good range of useful skills and properties. Things like Quick and Guts will help, though of course for it really is a matter of luck if they trigger or not. (See the list at the end of this section.) At the start of the battle summon Luplus with Iris to haste everyone, and then Jiptus, as soon as you can, to lower the Mini Puni's strength. Use Edge's Time Quake skill to reduce his magic defense, and have Nell attack or heal as necessary since the Puni will probably hurt you badly. Then use Edge's skill Slow on the Puni. This is the ONLY way to success unless you are incredibly lucky, so keep trying until this is successful. Most of the time the skill will miss, but it seemed to work better after reducing the Puni's magic defense. You'll soon notice when it works and this status effect will stay for many rounds, so you should be able to defeat the Puni before Slow wears off. Now keep up the pressure to get bursts. Nell's Punislayer with added HITS will fill half the gauge on its own and if you have Delay on someone you can also keep the Puni wrong footed as well as having slowed him to a crawl. Once you get a burst try to use Iris for the first turn when the Puni is stunned and summon Diemia. This should do around 15.000 - 20,000 damage each turn and if you keep some skill points you will find that Iris can get a second turn during the same burst and use Diemia again. (Just hope he doesn't block her attack!) The other two don't have such powerful skills, but use Cosmic Bane with Edge and Breakslash with Nell to knock him back. Armor Piercing and Quick Panther are fast acting skills which can be used by Nell as well as Ein Zecksclaw if you have enough skill points for this. If you run out of skill points while still in a burst then use a Unirus Lifeform to boost the burst gauge and when you're back to normal you will find that this leaves you with additional skill points. (You could use Life Convert with Nell if you are desparate to get more skill points while still in a burst, though this is a bit risky given that it reduces her HP.) Maintain this pattern and keep an eye on Slow because you will need to use the skill again if it wears off, however you should be able to defeat the Puni before this happens. ----------- Preparation ----------- Whatever strategy you decide to use you will need to prepare for this fight. o Items Use all your fruits that came as rewards. You might also try and get more from a spot of gardening for seeds which sometimes yield different fruits, although they are rare. Each fruit raises the stat by one. Give all Magic raising fruits to Iris and attack raising fruits to Edge or Nell. Make lots of Unirus Lifeforms, Super Nectars and have at least one Shining Grail in case of disaster. Have a few Feudal Snackcastles which heal everyone over time, and a few Elixirs. This is the battle you have been saving them all for, so go all out now! o Equipment Although this depends on your choice of Blades for Nell and Edge there are some things you will definitely need. Equip Iris with the Staff of Creation which has the highest Magic Attack. I gave it the properties of Blessed Weapon and Magic+ (L). Iris MUST have Blessed Weapon for her Diemia summons to work well. This is the strongest staff for Iris but it has only 5 hits so you could give her an accessory with +2 HIT to make up the difference. You could use Celestial Robe which has a higher speed stat, or Alchemy Robe which has higher magic attack and defense. Try to give her Guts as well, as this can help quite a bit in this battle especially since Iris has the lowest HP and is more vulnerable. Edge should have the Crown Breastplate, and Nell Feather Flow which boosts her speed and resists physical attacks, or Scarlet Tail which has higher attack and defense, but no speed advantage. This depends on which Blades you equip for her, so if it's a magic based blades then Feather Flow might be better, but for a physical attack Blades use Scarlet Tail. Make sure to use properties wisely. Delay+ (L) and Charge+ (L) should help, as well as Speed+ (L) on everyone. If you can manage "Quick" and First Strike then that will help too, as will Guts. In the end I didn't have Charge on anything for this fight, but it's a good property to have. o My Equipment EDGE Verdure Tablet - Delay+ (L), HIT +2 (To get Delay on this weapon you need to make the Magician's Book weapon with a Dragon Bone - the only item with this property) and use this to make the Verdure Tablet.) Crown Breastplate - Quick Crown of Thorns - Def+ (L) Healing Bracelet - Speed+ (L) IRIS Staff of Creation - Magic+ (L), Blessed Weapon Alchemy Robe - Guts Demon Pot - HIT +2 Glowing Bracelet - Power Guard NELL Punislayer - Speed+ (M), Crit+ (M) Scarlet Tail - Blessed Weapon Winged Boots - Quick Bunny Ears - HIT +2 ---------------- Blades Selection ---------------- There are various different strategies that I tried dependent on the choice of Blades, so I'll comment on these. Also this might save you the trouble of testing out different Blades, because I have been through them all and I can safely say that there is really only one effective Blade to use for Edge, at least. EDGE o Edge with Luplus The idea is to cast SLOW on the Puni and also use Iris' Luplus summon to haste your team. Preventing the Puni from getting a turn is crucial as it delays the point at which he summons the second Puni, and avoids him killing any of your team. In theory this is a good plan, but the problem I had with it is that despite around a dozen different attempts, only once did Edge manage to Slow him down, and all other times this missed. All misses are wasted turns and this strategy was a complete failure for me, which is why I tried all the other possibilities before returning to Luplus for the only successful attempt. If you attempt the battle with this Blade then equip the best weapon, Verdure Tablet, or Solomon's Key which has the added benefit of two additional hits. In fact, this is the strategy that worked in the end, which is why you need some luck. (It's always a strategy!) o Edge with Jiptus Soul Burst is a tried and tested skill that works well on many bosses, but the problem with Jiptus is that it's very slow. However I tried with the Odysseus having Atk Spec and Atk+ (L),and though it only had one hit Edge's attack power is at least 600 with this weapon. Other equipmet had Blessed Weapon and Speed + (L). You can use Death Calls or Unirus Lifeforms for the Burst Gauge instead of his normal attack. o Edge with Plua The advantage of Plua is that he's fast and you may even get in the first turn using this Blade. You can also use the repeat turn skill to your advantage especially if you have the property Delay+ (L) and this is an alternative way to keep the Puni from getting a turn. Plua also has an automatic Block to many Puni attacks and with luck this can kick in to protect Edge a number of times. This Blade gave me the best result of any apart from Luplus. o Edge with Normal Deus Ex Machina is tha weapon to use with its 7 xHIT and I had it with Atk+ (L). The advantage here is that you have the timed skills of Cross Rain and Windmill which assist in building up the burst gauge. However, the Puni used the Vengeful Puni attack and Quick so many times during this battle that I thought it had a grudge against me. o Edge with Fanatos Seriously don't even bother. Although this Blade has the reincarnation automatic skill it won't help much to have Edge dead for a couple of turns, and his best attack is Godly Beam which is magic based and therefore less useful. NELL o Normal She has Ein Zecksclaw though this is fairly slow, however her other attacks are fast and most importantly she can equip the Punislayer weapon, although you cannot get very good properties on this, no matter how hard you try. However that doesn't matter in the end because her better defense and attack will compensate, and if she has HIT x2 on her other equipment her normal attacks will be very effective in building up the burst gauge fast. This was the Blade that I used for her on my successful attempt. o Diemia She can armor break which reduces the Puni's defense, and has better defense and attack with this Blade, but you sacrifice the Punislayer weapon, and her speed is less, so the advantages are lost. o Nymph Although her magic based attacks won't be so effective, Nymph is great for its support skills and healing. Frozen Shard can be a useful attack and will sometimes stun the Puni. I used this Blade most often as I prefer to keep my party alive if I can, and the boost to Iris' magic helps. Check that you have sufficient items for Nell's supporting skills if you use the Nymph Blade. However, since I did not use this Blade when I beat the Mini Puni you might not want to adopt this strategy! o Siren Siren's one healing skill requires 3 skill points to use so it is not that helpful, and although Kobold Hero can be very effective as a timed attack which sometimes stuns as well as knocking back the Puni, it doesn't inflict much damage since it's a magic based attack. This is Nell's fastest Blade, but in the end that doesn't count for much if the Puni is not slowed down. o Faustus High defense and high physical attack might make this a tempting Blade to try but apart from Gargantua its skills are of limited use against the Puni, and it is also very slow. You could try it with the Junk Borot which gives Nell high HP as well as good attack, and you can add Atk+ (L) to this weapon. IRIS Iris is the key to this battle with her Blessed Weapon and Diemia summons. If you boost her magic with Nymph and she hits the Puni when stunned then she can inflict massive damage, (at least so people say) though I have only managed 23-24,000 HP. However there is a slight drawback to this skill as the Puni can block Diemia even when used in a burst attack. I would not rely on Diemia when fighting normally, especially if you are attempting to knockback the enemy. But even without the magic boost from Nymph, and the risk of the attack being blocked, Diemia is still the way to go if you plan to beat the Mini Puni. Healing or Not? Using the Raise skill if someone dies instead of wasting a turn keeping everyone healed is one idea, (or using the item Super Nectar). However, if one character dies then you will lose any burst that you have built up so a strategy based on not healing does not seem to be such a good idea. I managed to get the Puni down to just a sliver of health left with no deaths at all relying on Nell's Nymph for constant healing, but unfortunately that's when he called his brother in... With Luplus casting slow the danger of death is lessened considerably, and items are the best way to heal as they don't use up any skill points and allow you to have another turn more quickly than if you used a skill. Also if you use healing items during a burst they will have an increased effect. I put Raise on one of the team and Heal All on another and used these when necessary. ---------------- After the Battle ---------------- You will get the reward of 99 Crunchy Fruit when you report back to Phenyl at the Guild and the satisfaction of knowing you have beaten the hardest boss in the game! Use the Fruit to boost Magic Attack on everyone, or just Iris if you prefer. This will make her virtually unstoppable, and any other battles after this will be a breeze. =============================================================================== C H A P T E R T E N : M I S S I O N - To the World =============================================================================== When you have completed all the quests in this chapter, or whenever you choose, go and visit Noella in her office at the Guild. She will ask: "Are you ready?" Say yes (when you are sure you are) and you will be at the open hole, and after a scene you will be inside the Distorted Dimension. You can change Blades here since Ewan will make another circle for you. This is now the final Mission and there is no turning back. Your team will probably be at level 34 and this is fine for the final stages of the game. TO GET THE GOOD ENDING You must have completed the "Truth in Darkness" Quest and have obtained the recipe for the Shadow Gem from Ewan. Make the Shadow Gem using the Broken Gem and a Ruby Prism. =============================================================================== D I S T O R T E D D I M E N S I O N =============================================================================== I T E M S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chests: Cure Jar, Green Soup, Flame x2, Heal Jar x2, Divine Shield, Nectar, Heal Jar, Uni, Crunchy Fruit, Nectar, Wild Meat, X-Heal, Nectar. ______________________________________________________________________________ E N E M I E S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Enemy | Class | Drop | Treat | Weakness -------------------+--------+------------------+-------------------+----------- Giant Puni | Puni | Pendelook | Puni Gummy | Fire Kobold Elite | Beast | Worn Weapon | Puppy Paw Bonbon | - Kobold Ninja | Beast | Needle Candy | Puppy Paw Bonbon | - Lizard Wizard | Dragon | Monster Bone | Monster Cookie | Ice Lizard Shaman | Dragon | Dragon Bone | Monster Cookie | Ice Dragonewt | Dragon | Dragon Bone | Monster Cookie | Special Nightwalker | Beast | Wild Meat | Chaos Cookie | - Jagged Tiger | Beast | Monster Bone | Puppy Paw Bonbon | Ice Moon Flower | - | Mysterious Seed | Crystart | Ice Dryad | - | Mysterious Seed | Vanilla Syrup | Fire Orb | - | Pendelook | Vanilla Syrup | Elect.

Everything is familiar territory, but it is put together in an odd way, with areas inter-connecting unexpectedly. There is no time limit here, and there are no enemies at first. When you come across enemies you can run from most of them without a problem, and with no time penalty. The map works in the same way as in the Alterworlds. There are some enemies that can only be found in the Distorted Dimension so if you want to complete your lists make sure to fight the large red enemies. Zey Meruze Fountain and Grimoire From the Blades circle walk to the left to open a chest [Cure Jar]. Then walk up to the next screen for another chest [Green Soup]. Just a few steps to the right and there are two more chests [Flame, Flame]. Now walk up the grass to find yourself in the Squawks Treasury...only it is Grimoire Library. Climb the library ladder and walk to the right for a scene After the scene walk up and right (there is a creepy doll hanging and wobbling on the wall) for two more chests [Heal Jar, Heal Jar] and there is an opening to the left of the doll and you will be in the Grimoire Clock area and this is where battles begin. Go to the right past the large red enemy, and hop across the cog and then up the path past another large red blob and into the next room. There are no enemies here and a teleporter awaits. Dakascus Walk down into the next room and open the chest for [Divine Shield]. Follow the path to the next room which is a deserted Pengie Village. The chest here contains [Nectar]. Now you cannot go further until you have defeated the Boss enemy here. ------------------------- Servant and Two Guardians ------------------------- o-----------------------------------------------o | BOSS - SERVANT | |-----------------------------------------------| | Location: Distorted Dimension | | Protections: Special and Status Double, Magic | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Nightmare, Death Sphere | o-----------------------------------------------o o--------------------------------------------------o | BOSS - GUARDIAN x2 | |--------------------------------------------------| | Location: Distorted Dimension | | Protections: Special and Status Double, Physical | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Spin Tornado | o--------------------------------------------------o All of them have the usual resistance to Special Skills and Status. Servant resists Magic and the Guardians Physical. I slowed down Servant using Edge with Luplus one time, and Cosmic Bane is very effective at knocking them all back. Another time I used Jiptus for my favourite Soul Burst attack, but you could just as easily use any Blade. Make sure Raise is on someone's equipment in case of Death. Guardian: Spin tornado will inflict lots of hits on one. Servant: Nightmare hurts everyone and Death Sphere can damage for over 200 HP and kill instantly which is another good reason for slowing it down. Get rid of the Guardians first. After this use Diemia with Iris as it's a physical attack, and her Luplus summon to speed up time if you are having any trouble. (Actually with judicious use of Knockback skills and getting a burst fast, a third time I defeated them all with only one Guardian getting in a normal attack, using the same Blades set up as for the Mini Puni: Edge with Luplus and Nell with Normal Blades.) Valtessa After the battle click where you see a red mark next to the greenery to the right of the boxes, and there is a ladder leading down. The chest has [Heal Jar]. Walk down the path to the next screen and just past the enemies and down the next short path is another chest with [Uni]. Walk to the left and there is [Crunchy Fruit] in another chest near a large red enemy. In the next area there will be some red enemies but this is when the people of Zey Meruze will come to assist you. Posporia Walk down the steps for another scene. After this rather touching event, go on and up the steps to the cannon for [Nectar]. The chest below this has [Wild Meat]. Follow the path to the right and proceed up the screen past a large red enemy. At the next screen walk right under the bridge. Don't bother going up and left past the large red enemy as this just leads to a dead end. Instead go to the right of that enemy. It's not obvious that there is a path here. Now there is another scene. Follow the path up some large steps and you enter a new area. Giant Tree Climb up a couple of vines and fight the enemy that is hiding behind the treetrunk. Continue up the next vine to trigger another scene, and after this walk up a slope and enter a teleporter. Back to the Workshop This room has two possible paths, but they both require you to go left to begin with. First take the one leading right and along the grassy ledge, then past a large red enemy to find a chest with [X-Heal]. Return to the previous screen and this time walk up the grass to find a sudden battle, but you will be rescued! After this you can return back over the bridge if you want if you click on the stone well, but otherwise walk up to the signpost and then left to the next room. Carry on left and up the second set of stone steps and through a familiar door to find yourselves back in the Workshop! Here you can save, change blades and use the cauldron before entering the teleporter that is up the ladder. There is a warning when you try to save: you cannot return to town or complete any more quests with this save data. So make a new save file before undertaking the final battle if you wish. By this point you may be at level 35 if you have fought some enemies along the way. Preparing for the Final Battle Use the cauldron to make any items you want, and use up all leftover ingredients to ensure you have a supply of Super Nectars and the best equipment for whichever Blades you want. Although you can use any Blades for the final battle the best one to use for Edge is Luplus or Jiptus. Ishtar. When you are ready climb the ladder in the Workshop and enter the teleporter to arrive at Ishtar. Jump down the vines and walk left and then up the stepped rocks to the left. Follow the path to the end where there is a chest with a [Nectar] and then jump onto the large pipe through the gap in the rock wall. This leads to a recovery point and then a teleporter to the BOSS ----------------------------- LAND OF FROZEN TIME: UROBORUS ----------------------------- This time I decided to try the battle with the Blades I use the least: Fanatos for Edge and Faustus for Nell. I would suggest using your favourite Blades for this battle and so long as everyone has decent equipment with useful properties it shouldn't be too hard. The Raise skill is always a good idea and Heal All. Edge should have the Crown Breastplate, Nell the Scarlet Tail, Feather Flow or Heaven's Feel, and Iris Celestial Robe or Saint's Garb. Both of these have additional protections, or choose the Alchemy Robe if you want higher Magic Attack. Iris should have Blessed Weapon on her equipment, and Delay +(L) will be useful if you are using weapon based attacks on him. I tend to use up any leftover Unirus Lifeforms during this battle as there is no point in keeping anything now. o------------------------------------------------------------------------o | BOSS - UROBORUS | |------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Location: Distorted Dimension | | Protections: Status and Special - Double, Magic and Physical | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Blaze - all, Plasma Shutter - one (timed), Cursed Breath - all | | Ancient Mist (dispel) Beginnings End - all, Abysmal Fist -one | | World's End - removes Magic and Physical protection | | Dimension Scythe - all, Pure Incarnation - all, and adds | | Magic and Physical protection again | o------------------------------------------------------------------------o First Form At the start of the battle he will resist all attacks so it doesn't really matter whether you use physical or magic attacks, though ordinary weapons attacks will not be resisted. Use up any Unirus Lifeforms to help build the burst gauge, and Iris can summon Jiptus as usual and you will soon acheive a burst. He has two additional heads that do repeated fire or lightning attacks and holds a large mace or rod which he uses for his more powerful attacks. Blaze is a weak fire attack, and Plasma Shutter is a weak Lightning attack on one. Cursed Breath is a weak ice attack on everyone. All these attacks are from the additional heads and they are not worth worrying about. With your good armour these won't hurt too much though they are timed attacks. Second Form Ancient Mist will dispel any boosts and give him another turn when he uses a skill called Beginnings End. Although this appears to do nothing his next main attack will be Beginnings End when he summons a girl who inflicts around 200 HP damage to everyone. Make sure everyone is healed and his attack lowered before this attack hits. After this he uses World's End and loses his magic and physical defense. This is your chance to go all out. Dimension Scythe will be used as well and this attacks everyone for around 50 HP or so. Abysmal Fist is a one person powerful physical attack that causes around 200+ HP damage. After a while he uses Pure Incarnation which hurts everyone for about 200 HP or so and restores his Magic and Physical Protections, but just keep attacking him using a burst and your best skills. Keep using Jiptus when the effect wears off and Diemia with Iris and you should find that you only have to suffer the Beginnings End sequence once before you have defeated him. (Oh, he doesn't get stunned by your Burst Gauge so forget about trying to arrange for Iris to attack him at the start of the burst.) If you find this battle hard to win then you may be choosing less effective attacks or have weak equipment, because you can win with any Blades set up. You could try Nell with Nymph for her boosts and healing, and Edge with Jiptus for his Soul Burst. Don't forget that you can use timed attacks from some accessories, and items for healing and attack. The main thing to watch out for is that "Beginnings End" message and to ensure everyone is fully healed BEFORE the attack hits you and then heal up again afterwards. GOOD LUCK! =============================================================================== C H A P T E R T E N : E N D I N G =============================================================================== Macho Rule: final one! Smile, especially when you're sad! Once you gain control of Edge go to the Guild and into Noella's room. Chat to people on the way for new information if you want. (You no longer have a Reference Book or any Quests or even equipment, although you can still look at the town map.) Then head for Valtessa: you'll have to walk as the Fairy Taxis seem to have gone out of business. There are no enemies in Valtessa, but the destination is marked as usual. It is in the Forest Depths in the central largest room, and yes, you have to walk all the way there, but it is strangely comforting without all the grass to cut and enemies to fight. Walk straight ahead when you arrive at the large room and you will enter the Stone Ruins place where you can find what you were looking for. Enjoy the good ending! Finally you will have the option to save the cleared game data, and you can begin the game all over again, though there is no New Game + or bonus dungeon to find. At least you can select EXTRA and see the Library reference lists, or choose BGM to hear all the music, or CAST for some additional pictures and the names of the Japanese cast. =============================================================================== D.

ISHTAR The five Alterworlds are accessed one by one as you progress through the chapters, and although populated by different creatures they all share certain characteristics. o Field Bonus Every Alterworld has a field bonus and if you complete a number of pre-set tasks you will be rewarded with additional items. The points for these are accumulative. o Shops Every Alterworld (except for Valtessa) has a shop or two. o Enemies All Alterworlds have enemies, and these are different for each one. o Hourglasses Find these to extend your time in the Alterworld by one bead. Some are clearly visible and others will be revealed when you cut grass or break boxes. o Crystals Find crystals by cutting grass, breaking boxes, melting ice and smashing boulders, and these will add to your overall points for the Field Bonus. You need a minimum total of 4000 points from the crystals, although you can easily get more than this from repeated visits, and the crystals also add a small amount to your time. o Gathering Items This is where you go to find a range of items. These are found in a number of ways. Everything regenerates when you leave and return except the Treasure Chests. * Treasure Chests: these are in set locations and contain one item only. * Cutting Grass: random crystals which give points towards the field bonus and brown bags containing items are found when you cut grass. * Breaking boxes, vases, and crates also reveals random items. * Flame ice blocks, smash rocks and break crystals for items. * Brown bags are found in set locations although their contents vary. These will regenerate when you leave an Alterworld. * A Tree that can be knocked with a Hammer. This will drop a range of brown bags as well as enemies. * Fishing Spots where you can catch fish after getting the Fishing Pole. + Garden where you can plant Mysterious Seeds and harvest the results. =============================================================================== I.

You enter at the bottom left corner of the map. Walk forwards and down and back along the first path where you cannot see a room on the map. In here open the chest [Healing Ankh.] This is a valuable accessory and best to equip it to Iris. Slash the grass here for Huffin Blossoms and crystals. Return to the large area and hop up the grass to get two bags. There are two more bags if you jump up to the ledge ahead. Then continue right,past the large red enemy. You can win a fight against him easily enough if you reach burst mode. Simply use fire attacks against the Puni and Kobold with Edge and use Iris's magic, and with a Burst you will increase a level. In the next room walk down the grass picking up a couple of bags as you go, and then walk to the left of the tree where there is another bag, and past a large enemy into a small room with a garden area where seeds can be planted. Open the chest for [Stole]. You can see another chest that appears to be inaccessible, but just walk right through a gap in the trees and you can find a path heading left to the chest.containing [Heal Jar]. Return to the main path and walk right to the next large room. There is a bag behind the tree and then some grassy mounds to jump across. At the far side walk down the path past some large roots for another bag and grasscutting where you can also find an Hourglass. Return to the main path and walk up to the next room past a large red enemy. (This path has the World Tree for one of Iris' Alchemy ideas Level 3.) The next room has a bag by the tree, and if you go left there is a chest with [Mysterious Seed]. Back in the main room carry on and climb up for a couple of bags and in the next room head left for a bag and then right and down to the pond and another bag. There is another just to the right, and one at the top of the grass path to the right. Jump up the next set of grassy steps and walk left past a large red enemy. Here you can jump to the left where there is an Hourglass, and then jump again to the left for two chests: [Mysterious Seed, and Nectar]. Head up after that for a couple more bags, and then head to the room to the right for three bags, and grasscutting, past a large red enemy. The last room, Guardian Hill, has a bag and a chest with [Heal Jar], and that's them all! ---------------------------------------------- Map B: Forest Depths, available in Chapter Two ---------------------------------------------- Kuu's first quest will gain you access to MAP B which takes a secret path left from the third big room of the first map. Forest Depths. You can follow the green path left and then head down the screen and right, and then up a short path to find a chest [Nectar]. This is the small right hand room which has another path leading right to a dead end. Return to the first room of the Forest Depths and now walk left to the next room Jump up the slope to reach a chest at the top which contains [Black Hat]. Then head left and you will come to a fork. The path leading right has a large red enemy in the way and the one to the left takes you down screen to a small room with a chest [Heal Jar] and after cutting the grass you can find another chest [Black Belt]. Now go back and defeat the enemy and continue up the path and past another Large red enemy. Keep heading down the path and you can go through a gap leading south into a large room where there are a number of large red enemies Poison Altar If you get past the first two large red there is a chest down the screen with [Puppy Paw Bonbon]. Back to the main path and you can jump on the grass mound and across to the right where there is yet another large red enemy. Past this one to the next room, and again keep low and you will head right to a new room. Just past a large red enemy is a chest in a gap in a broken wall. [8 Directional Spring]. Then walk down the path to find another chest with [Caduceus]. This is a useful weapon for Iris with fire element and high magic attack. Hop (or fight) past another red enemy and you can reach the last small room at the top of the map. There are two chests here: [Divine Shield] and [Tasteless Fruit] The Tree The only room not yet explored is a small one reached from the upper path of the largest central room and this just has a Tree that you will return to later, but for now there is nothing else to find. =============================================================================== II.

West Room and Landing West Room has three enemies and one chest: [Alchemic Cane] Recipe. At the Landing some stairs lead up to the next floor, but if you carry on to the next screen there are two chests: [Zettel] and [Cure Jar]. East Corridor This is the East Corridor and you cannot head back to the entrance because of ice blocks. Walk right and go through a gap in the wall to a small outside balcony with two chests: [Trauer Tarot], and [Crunchy Fruit]. Continue right and there is a hidden room with another chest with [Flame], and a small enemy. Outer Hall Go back to the Outer Hall and head up to an outer pathway. At the far end is a Locked Door that you cannot open yet. This leads to the Underground of Grimoire. Landing and Stairs to Inner Centre If you head up the stairs to the Inner Centre and keep left and ahead over a small bridge, there are two chests: [Eternal Turnkey] is in one and [8 Directional Spring] in the other. Inner West and Library - 3F Now go left and then turn down the screen to Inner West, and you will find a small opening with stairs, which leads to the Library, a place you will become very familiar with. Follow the corridor to the Library Desk and get [Ring Recipe] in a chest. Stay at the top of the bookshelves and enter a door at the end to find a chest with [Bomb Ice]. Now hop down the ladder to the main floor of the library and pick up the bag in the centre of the books as this is always Canone Rock, a useful item. From the library floor walk down the corridor to the left (Library Balcony) for two more chests. [Bitter Fruit] and [Heal Jar]. There is nothing in the room to the right here, so head back up through the library and into the other room to the left (Devil Aisle) for two more chests: [Nectar] and [Legien Ore]. Walk right, down the corridor into another small room (Magic Aisle) with one enemy and a chest with [Flame Ring]. East Corridor and Dark Altar From the second floor go left from the door to the library and there is another door to the outside East Corridor, but there is nothing to find here, besides enemies and barrels, and the Dark Altar at the far end of the corridor. Inner East and North - Second Floor If you head right from the entrance to the second floor, (Inner East) smash some boxes that block the path, and then behind the second set of boxes (near a large red enemy) is a hidden chest with [Legien Ore]. Inner North and right is another Locked Door that needs a Hammer. Head left and through a door to meet a Squawk and more ice blocking the passage. You need the Flame Barrett for this. That is as far as you can go for this first visit. ------------------------------------------------------ Underground Grimoire and Squawk Village - Chapter Four ------------------------------------------------------ When you receive the Castle Key after the Cleaning Cobwebs quest you can access the Underground area. This is reached by heading right from the Landing Corridor to the East Corridor and then up to the Outer Hall. The key unlocks the door at the far end of the Outer Hall. North UG Entrance Antique Shop Gee might be here and you can buy Black Liquid in bulk, and Large Explosive recipe from him for 3450 Cole. From the entry walk a few steps along the path and break the boxes and barrels for a couple of bags. If you want to go to the Squawk Village turn up the path and go through the broken bars to the Prison Path. UG 1F North and South From the entrance area instead of turning up to take the Prison Path, walk left and this takes you to UG 1F South. There is a chest with [Black Liquid] but you cannot go any further until you can break the rocks. UG 1F Prison Path From the broken bars walk a few steps and turn right through another broken barred hole into Nature's Prison, where you will find a chest with [Brilliant Stone], and many small red enemies as well as two large ones. Continue on up the Prison Path and there is another room through bars to the right. One chest has [Pendelook], and there is a set of stairs leading down just in front of the chest and hidden by some boxes. This leads to UG 2F, but without a Hammer to break the rocks you cannot get any further. Squawk Village - Backyard Back on the prison path and directly left there is a long ladder which leads up to the Squawk Village. You can chat and fish here for Joker Fish. There is an Hourglass just around the corner from the pond if you need some extra time. There are also two chests with [Gong] Recipe, and [880 Cole]. Squawk Village North and the Treasury Continue heading right along the dark blue path, and there is another chest in Squawk Village North containing [Le Merou Cog]. You can chat to a couple of Squawk youngsters and two guards in front of the Treasury, although you cannot access this just yet. Antique Shop Gee Keep going right for two more chests, both with [Posporia Cotton] x2. The house here is the official shop of Antique Shop Gee. -------------------------- The Freezer - Chapter Five -------------------------- From the entrance to the Castle walk right and melt the ice here. Then go left and up to 2F Inner Center. Go to the right through Inner East to Inner North, and left through the door into Freezer Hall. Melt the four blocks here and then enter the first door. Melt all the ice in here as well. Then walk down the corridor and into the second room (Hazard Storage) where you can pick up three bags, (all fish items!) open the chest for [Bonita], and melt more ice. Keep going up the corridor melting as you go until you reach the end. There is nothing more to find here, and the corridor is a dead end. ---------------------------------- Squawk Treasury - Chapter Five/Six ---------------------------------- You will gain access to this area after defeating the Fatebringer in the quest - They Only Walk Away. As soon as the battle is over, walk down the corridor and there should be an Iris lightbulb icon provided you have reached Alchemy Level 6. This is a significant recipe for Living Uni as the item crafted is very useful for some harder battles later in the game. Continue down the passage and at the point where there are two large red enemies turn up the screen to enter a door where there is a room with one Large red enemy, two small ones and a chest containing [le Merou Cog]. Carry on down the corridor to the next door and the same situation awaits: enemies and a chest with a |Grand Viper] weapon. Make sure to retrieve any brown bags as one or two should contain the rare item Blue Pearl. -------------------------------------- Grimoire with the Hammer - Chapter Six -------------------------------------- NOTE - you can leave this first area on the second floor until you have used the switch, which is accessed from UG 1F South. South Corridor Enter Grimoire once you have the Hammer and bash the stones that block the stairs in the entrance hall. You can now get through to Castle 2F South Corridor. Go down the corridor and through the first door on your left to find a bag with a Pendelook (another source of these closer to home than the far reaches of Ishtar), and a chest with [Hyper Doll] recipe. There is another room directly opposite this one, though it is not obvious as there is no door to see. In here is a chest with a [Baba Yaga] weapon. 2F Inner South Continue up the corridor into the clock area and this is 2F Inner South. You can pick up an hourglass but can't progress any further until you have operated the switch in the Outer Castle. Underground Grimoire - with the Hammer There are two separate section to explore in the Underground Castle after getting the Hammer. Start by heading right from 1F and melting the ice and then go right when you enter the first door, to 1F East Corridor. Break everything in the hall room as there is often an Hourglass in the boxes, and then continue along 1F Outer Hall, making sure to pick up the Hourglass before entering the North Underground Entrance. UG 1F Far South First make your way all the way left to the far end of the path at Castle UG 1F South. There are some boulders at the end of the path, and although this appears to be a dead end, if you break the three of them you can carry on into a new room UG1F Far South. (You can find Blue Pearls and Pendelooks here in brown bags and when you break things.). Make your way to the far end of the path and then enter an opening in the northern wall. Outer Castle ??? Switch This new area can be seen on your castle map as completely detached from the other rooms and can only be reached from the stairs/hole you just entered from UG 1F Far South. At the left of the path is a chest with [Necronomicon] the weapon for Edge, and at the right a chest with [Gravity Stone]. At the end of the path is a large switch under a tower. Choose to flip this switch. You won't see any effect but there is one, although it is all the way to the entrance to find out. For now, if you are exploring these new areas, return to the prison path, and back to the UG Prison Path South and then North, and this time turn up the path at the junction near the entrance. IG 1F Nature's Prison. Enter the second right hand room through the broken bars, and break the boxes to reveal the entrance to 2F. Castle UG 2F Break the boulders in this first cave and then walk to your right. Use the Flame on the small fires to provide more light. At the second fire walk right and past a large red enemy to the end of the narrow path to find some crystals and a chest with a [Bomb Bomb Ice]. At the fourth fire there is a broken barred gate to the left. Go through here and light three more fires and break boulders for crystals and then enter another open barred gate at the far end which takes you even deeper. Castle Depths and Grave of ??? There are Strange Slabs in bags here, and if you continue through to the next room there is a Grave. Back on the main path from the broken bars you can continue past another couple of fires and you reach another room with a number of boulders, more fires to light, some small enemies and a chest with [Strange Slab]. ---------------- After the Switch - 2F, 3F and Bell Tower ---------------- Bash the rocks and walk up to 2F South Corridor and continue through to the clock area. Now you can jump across the stopped cog and follow the path to the right. Keep going and jump over a cog to reach a chest containing [Graver Bell] a weapon for Nell. Then continue on the main path until you see a handle switch next to an opening to the next floor. Flip the switch and go through the opening. 3F Look on your map and you'll see this is one room with stairs at each end. Go left as far as you can go, and take the contents of the chest [Glittering Thread], even though you might feel bad about it, the Squawk doesn't seem to object. Then go right, and if you haven't flipped the switch a Squawk will remind you. Otherwise continue over the halted machinery until you see another switch and another opening. Leave the switch as it is. Castle Roof, Inside, Top Floor Go inside and head left and over a stopped cog to pick up some bags with the useful Pendelook and Strange Slab and maybe Blue Pearl. Then return and flip the switch. Now I thought maybe you could do this as many times as you like, since the bags on the platform beyond the cogs reappear, but in fact they disappear again when you re-swtch the cog, so you can't farm these items. Bell Tower After flipping the switch walk along the right hand path and through the arch to the roof. There will be an Iris icon to your left if you have Alchemy Level 8 and you'll get the recipe Doomsday Bell, a weapon for Nell. That's it for Grimoire for now. --------------------------------------- Bashing Down the Doors - 2F Inner East --------------------------------------- Go up to the second floor on your way to the Library and turn right and keep heading right to Inner North and the door that could not be opened before. Bash it with the Hammer and enter a room Hidden Room Yes, that's what it is called. There are a couple of small enemies in here and four chests. [1010 Cole], [Tera Flame], [Gleipnirs Chains Recipe], and [Holy Emblem] =============================================================================== III.

After you have use of the cannons this restriction can be circumvented easily enough LOCATION From the East Bridge of Zey Meruze, walk north and past some buildings to the right. Continue to a signpost and then go right. Hop up onto the grassy bank and the portal to Posporia is just a few steps further. NOTE In Chapter 3 the Kuma area is open, but the Fairy area is blocked by fairies. In Chapter 5 the Kuma is blocking the way north from the Middle Battlegrounds again, so you have to use the cannons. In Chapter 7 a Fairy seems to block the way north into Kuma territory, but you can just walk past. Fairies block the way south at Fairy Fort West and access to Fairy Cannon East. In Chapter 8 the Kumas block the path to to the north in Kuma Fort West and East. This means you cannot use the Kuma East and West Cannons. In Chapter 9 the Fairies are back in control but you can use all the cannons.

Available in Chapter Two -------------------------------------------------------------------- In this first visit you can explore everywhere that is currently accessible and fight the enemy at the Watchtower Steps for the Quest: COMBAT EXAM in Chapter Two. You are prevented from going into Kuma territory and cannot yet use the cannons. Battlegrounds Entrance From the Entrance you walk into the second room on your map. There is a *Woofer 1* here, (note this because one of the bonus tasks is to speak to 15 people, well, not people exactly, but individuals, so I will mark then as we meet them. Follow the path to the next pair *Kuma 2 and *Fairy 3, and open the two chests next to them. [Fairy Hat] and [Mysterious Seed]. Middle Battlegrounds You can see three directions going out from this large room. You cannot go north yet, but an Iris Idea will be visible on a *Kuma 4, and you will get the recipe for Costume, (assuming your alchemy level is 1).If you cross the bridge leading to the right of the screen just past the recipe bear, this leads to Neutral Baths and Watchtower Steps and (eventually) to the Cannon for the Big Tree and the Bow to Wow Shop. However first go down the screen to check the cannon and another Iris Idea will show at the left hand one: the recipe for Explosive. There is another *Kuma 4 and a chest containing [Fairy Clothes Recipe.] Fairy Fort West Cross the southern bridge and this leads to Fairy Fort West. If you walk right to the next screen this is Fairy Fort East. Fairy Fort East and Pond A Keep following the path right and up and then left to find a *Kuma 5 standing by a pond. Walk further to the right over another wooden bridge and this takes you to another room, also part of the East Fort, and with two paths: one heading further to the right and the other down. If you follow the path you can see some chests in an open walled space. The entrance is not obvious but it is up and left under a kind of walled bridge. There is an hourglass and three chests. [Mysterious Seed], [Fairy Clothes], and [560 Cole]. The entrance to this room is in fact directly to the left of the path to the far right end room of the map. Fairy Cannon East. Besides the Cannon, there is a *Fairy 6* Fairy Fort, East Gate Walk south from the previous room and you are at Fairy Fort, East Gate, and this takes you to the next page of the Posporia Map. There is another Hourglass, and *Kuma 7*, and a chest next to him [Glansen Ore] You will now go through a wooden door in the Fort Wall and arrive at Fairy Territory. Fairy Fort, West Entrance: Peko's Souvenirs You begin at the top right corner of the map. Follow the grassy path and walk up the small slope to a tree with your first Fairy Shop. Peko's Souvenirs. You can buy Fairy Stick, an accessory with Cure, but you will soon receive this as a quest reward so I wouldn't bother. The chest contains [Fairy Hat], so don't give him any money for one of these. From here walk right to ... Eastern Fairy Forest. This is an L shaped room. Edge past the Large Red enemy and you will arrive at a statue of a fairy where Iris will have another Idea: Cane. Open the chest here for your first [Monster Bone]...kind of begs the question of who would find a monster bone and put it in a gold and purple chest and not mind who takes it, but we don't worry about things like that in a GUST game. Fairy Village and Garden Left from the statue and you will arrive at the Fairy Village, with another *Fairy 8 to talk to, and a chest containing [Green Soup]. There are a couple more fairies to chat to, and another one next to a cannon. *Fairy 9/10/11. Walk up the path between the two statues and speak to yet another *Fairy 12, and the *Fairy General 13. Enter the tree house and open the chest for your first [Melty Spring Water]! (You don't yet realise how precious this is...and how hard it is to find more of it, at least, until you eventually have access to a certain shop) *Fairy Chief 14 is in the back room. There is a garden to the left of this area where you can plant seeds and a useful Hourglass. Walk to the south to speak to yet another *Fairy 15 and then you enter the next area. Fairy Village West Entrance. There is yet another Iris idea at the Mushroom circle: [Shroom Armor Recipe], but only if you reached Alchemy Level 2. The chest in the mushroom circle contains [Nicro Cloth]. Follow the winding path to the right and you reach Western Fairy Forest. Western Fairy Forest and Fairy Treasury There are two rooms leading north and south. The north room is blocked by *Fairy 16, so you will have to return here another time. This is the Fairy Treasury, and you can only gain access when there are two or three beads left on the timer. There are three chests in here containing: [Medicine X], [530 Cole] and {Leather Cuirass] Fairy Station West South is a small room leading west. Although it appears as if there is another room to the south, this is in fact a real room...in a tree house, Fairy Station West, and there are two chests and a *Fairy 17, [Wind Slicer] and [Treasurebug Silk]. Keep following the winding path west and past a large red enemy heading left, and there is another chest [Cure Jar}, and a Fairy sitting on top of a tree. Another one is past the grass *Fairy 14* and finally you will be back at Fairy Fort West Entrance. Cut the grass here for Poison Shrooms, and a fair few crystals and an hourglass. There is another hourglass past the Large Enemy and back at the Fort Walls. (You should have chatted to enough "people" by now, so I'll stop counting!) The Tree In the left long room there is a large tree which can be knocked when you get a Hammer, making Bags and enemies fail. Fairy Fort West Gate and Altar of Water Go through the gate and there is a Chest [Heal Jar] and a Kuma. Follow the stone pathway and you will arrive at Fairy Cannon West, just south of the entrance area. Walk straight to your left and this is the Altar of Water. There is nothing here for now, so ignore this and walk north. (Although you can fish here if you have time.) Fairy Cannon West This room is directly south from the Middle Battlegrounds. First chat to two Kumas if you want, and open a chest for [Wild Meat]. Walk up the steps for another crystal, a chest [Nectar] and two Fairies. Then head right past the Kumas and you will be able to walk up past a Large Red Enemy (a bag here had Fairy Hat) and back to Fairy Fort West. Fairy Fort West Walk up the steps to speak to another Kuma standing next to a large cannon, and open a chest for [Flame]. From here the path leads right over a bridge and there is another Kuma on guard. Middle Battlegrounds Now if you head north back to the center then you can go right towards the red mark again having explored everywhere in one visit! From the bathing pool where there are a Fairy and two Kumas, walk up and to the right to the Watchtower Entrance. There is a Fairy here, but keep going and you will come to some large steps where a scene will take place. (This is the location for another Quest later as well.) There is another Kuma and Fairy to the right of the pond and down across a short bridge from them you can find Bow Won, standing by a shop awning and cannon. Remember this place for late, as he will open a shop here. You can also use the Cannon from here to reach the Giant Tree. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Map B - Central Region and Kuma Territory. Available in Chapter Three --------------------------------------------------------------------- After receiving the quest to investigate "The Reason for War", you can head north from the Middle Battlegrounds. (You cannot reach the Kuma area by the Eastern route past the fishing spot as the way is blocked by Fairies, and it's the same if you try to head south towards the Altar of Water area. This means that you have to use the Cannon if you want to reach the Fairy Village for any quests. Middle Battlegrounds The first chest contains [Eternal Turnkey]. The first room at the far north of the Central Region map is Kuma Fort West. Kuma Fort West From here there are two different routes. o ROUTE ONE - WEST Head left to cross a bridge to Kuma Cannon West and you can find [Nectar] in a chest to the right. Follow this path around and you enter Kuma Fort, West Gate. This leads to the next map and Kuma Fort, West Entrance. Climb up the small ladder and enter Kuma, Beast Cave where there are two chests and a large red enemy to kill first. One chest has [Black Liquid and the other [Mysterious Card] Recipe. Then walk up the steps to the house. Kuma Station West Enter the house here and open the chest at the end of the ledge for [Steak]. Jump down for an Hourglass, and two bags. Then go right to find yourself in the West Entrance. Kuma Fort, West Entrance Walk right for a crystal by the tree and then up the stone steps to find two chests to your left: [Goat Milk] and [Monster Cookie], and another to your right with [Bear Pelt]. Kuma Territory, Mountains (Explosives) This is up the center steps from the West Entrance. If you enter the open doorway to the right you can break some barrels but you cannot set off the explosives just yet. You need the Hammer for this, and when you have it, this is the way to get into the Kuma Treasury. Set off the explosions and this will have the effect of sending the guard at the Treasury to investigate, thus allowing you access to the treasure. For now carry on up the steps and walk to the right. Jump down the second opening in the rocks to open the chest with [Concentrated Honey]. If you continue to the right there is an hourglass and you arrive at Kuma Village South. For now carry on exploring the mountains. Altar of Earth This is up the left hand set of steps. There is a chest at the far end of the area, containing [Arabesque Stole] though you may have to defeat the large red enemy first. You can see the altar if you jump along the top of the rocks, but there is nothing to find. The second set of steps leads to another chest to the right containing [Misty Curtain]. Walk back down and head right into the Kuma Village South. o ROUTE TWO- EAST Kuma Fort East and East Gate Go right and pick up an Hourglass and open a chest for [Wild Meat],and this room is Kuma Fort East. Walk around the path and up the steps and this will take you down again and then left across a bridge to Kuma Fort, East Gate. Kuma Cannon East This is the small room to the north of here, and reached if you go right, but there is nothing to find at the moment. Kuma Fort East Entrance Carry on heading left and then up the large stone steps and through the doorway to Kuma Fort East Entrance. There is a house here called Kuma Station East, with a chest [Sweaty Fruit], and if you go through the door to the right there is another chest with [Black Liquid]. For the moment you cannot go further up this path, so return through the house. (This eventually leads to an area called ??? ) Kuma Village South (and Treasury) Walk left and up the path to enter this room with three pathways heading in different directions. The left path up some rock steps, takes you to an Hourglass and through to Kuma Territory Mountain. The other path down from this room leads to the Kuma Treasury, which is guarded. Walk to the left in the Village South room to open a chest with [Bear Pelt], and then walk up the steps to the right and into Kuma Village North. Kuma Village North Head right to open two chests [Goat Milk x2], and at the door to a house just up from here is another chest with [Black Hat]. There is another Hourglass sitting on a bench in the middle of the area. Go inside the Kuma Chief's House and walk left into his Pantry, for two bags and a chest with [Kuma Outfit - armor]. ------------- Kuma Treasury - with the Flame Barret - Chapter Five ------------- Take the Fairy Fort East Cannon to the Kuma Territory and climb up the rocks at the far side of the Kuma Village South. Jump down the rocks to the lower path and enter the Explosives storage Room. Flame the Barrels and there will be a scene and you'll see the Kuma guarding the treasure move. Now walk to the Village and down the rock steps into the Treasury. There are crystals and five chests, so this is worth while making the effort. [X Heal] [X Heal] [Thunder Rod], [Tera Flame], [Bomb Bomb Ice]. If you have the Hammer make sure to destroy 10 boulders in the Mountains while doing this. ---------- Giant Tree - Chapter Six ---------- You can only access the Giant Tree when you use the cannon from Bow Won's shop at the Neutral Baths. The first time you'll get there automatically, but for subsequent visits the bar to hit is much smaller than normal, so be careful, or you will end up at some other random spot in Posporia. Giant Tree Lower Area From the arrival point walk right, and climb two sets of vines past two large red enemies. There is a chest to your left containing [Fungo Charm] a weapon for Edge. Continue following the only path along the logs until you reach the next vine which takes you to the next room. Follow the first two logs and go straight ahead through an opening in the tree, to find a small room with one large red enemy and a chest with [Gauntlet of Artorius]. Return to the main path and keep climbing the vines and walking the logs until you reach another chest with [Glittering Thread] just to the left of vines that take you to the next imaginatively title area. Giant Tree Middle Area You will probably have to fight a couple of large red enemies as you follow this route. When you reach a large treetrunk walk left to open a chest with [Apple of Youth], and then walk around the back of the trunk (out of sight for a moment, but there is no enemy) and get the Hourglass. Then head through the opening, and again go around the trunk, this time to the right. Climb the vine and you're out of sight again and there is an enemy here you can't really avoid. Walk along the grass path and up and around the path. There is a fork with an opening in a treetrunk and a path leading to the right. The opening takes you to a Lithograph if you are on the Giant Exploration quest, and the path along the log simply ends up at Giant Tree Upper Area. If you hop up the flat wooden platforms you reach the "Top of the Giant Tree" (Kind of disappointing...) That's it. =============================================================================== IV.

Wait for the seed to flower and then turn to seed before you pick it. 7. will probably be completed in your first visit. 10. can be done when you undertake the quest to fix the crystals in Chapter, and have to visit the chief for a recipe. However simply walking to the village and leaving is not enough, so wander around for a while entering more rooms. 1. and 9 can be done when you first get access to the West Crystal Valley. 3. can only be done once you have the Hammer and access to the Celestial Rookery in chapter 6. 3. Can be done most easily when exploring Crystal Valley North and the side room have many crystals to smash. NOTE: the Field Bonus that involves keep 9 Skill Gauges can be more easily completed if you have Nell equipped with Diemia and use her skill "Life Convert" which will increase the gauge by two. Get the gauge to show 9 and then fight nine battles without using any skills, so the gauge stays at this level. The one thing to avoid is getting a burst.

There are no enemies until the third room. When you enter the fourth room you can see that this is a crossroads. If you try to go right there is a large boss enemy, and this is one of the Lizard quest bosses. If you try to go west then there is a dead end, so for now just head up and right to the Pengie village. Open the first chest for [Lightning Rod], and a second next to the chief for [Holy Clothing Recipe]. Shop for two recipes and the MSW (Melty Spring Water!), Penn's Shop and Oasis After defeating the Lizard Musketeers you can go right and up to Penn's Shop Outside Town, for more shopping and three chests: [Concentrated Honey, 610 Cole, Monster Cookie]. Down from here is the Oasis and garden with a chest [Thunder Stone]. You can plant seeds and fish while waiting for the seeds to sprout, and so complete these two field bonuses on this first visit.You cannot get at the chest behind the man here for a long time yet. Route to Guardian Hill Now return up the path and this time head to the right past the entrance to Penn's shop, for another chest with [Melty Spring Water], and a signpost to Hill of Guardians. You cannot go any further right as there is a broken crystal but you can go north. The fourth room has a chest with [Gurgu's Cane] a weapon for Nell's Nymph Blades, but this is Fire based so not as good as the Witch Staff for the Lizard enemies here. There is an hourglass further on in this room and eventually you will reach Guardian Hill, the final room of CV East. There is a chest with [Armed Gear], a fire based weapon for Edge, and another one with [Needle Candy], another weapon for Edge. (By the way, if you try to return from here, you need to jump across the gaps as you cannot jump up the left hand rocks.) There is one more room left to find and this is to the left of the third room out of the six at the left of the map. In here you will find the Green-Tail Bandits, and a chest containing the recipe for [Hat]. Return here after you have the Breath of Earth and mend the crystal. There is another chest with [Star Prism]. You don't need to make a special trip as the quest "Bandits Resurrected" will take you back to this room, in chapter 7. ---------------------------------------------- Crystal Valley West - With the Breath of Earth (Chapter Five or Six) ---------------------------------------------- Try and get the sword slash bonus now while exploring the Western Crystal Valley, or/and the burst gauge one. Crystal Valley East and Far East Before starting the exploration of the western valley go right from the main signpost, and along the path that goes past the entrance to the Oasis and shop. There is a broken crystal in the next room so mend this and continue to where there is a chest conatining [Bitter Fruit]. Follow the path right and down to the final room where there is an Hourglass and three chests that contain [Shield of Gargol], [Le Merou Cog], and another [Le Merou Cog}. From the Pengie standing near the sign to the village go left to the next room. Use the Breath of Earth on the first crystal, and cross over and head down the screen to open a chest with [Tera Flame]. Then return to the main path and continue walking left, and at the next junction go up and right and fix another crystal. In this next room there are two chests with your first [Star Prism] and armour [Estevangaurd]. Crystal Valley West Return to the main path and continue heading west. If you want the Hourglass then jump from the top of the right hand steps to get it. In the next room follow the upper path heading back to the east (it seems) and you will find another small room with three chests and lots of grass. All three contain [Glittering Thread]. This is first time you'll find this item and finding three at once is rather nice. Now go back to the main path and keep going left up some steps to find another chest with [Star Prism]. Route to Crystal Valley North If you now take the upper path this leads to another broken crystal and CV North. Repair the crystal and you can talk to a Pengie in this first room but for now you can't go any further. Crystal Valley West Instead keep going left and you will end up in another long room heading south. Jump up the the upper path to pick up another Hourglass and then staying at the lowest level you will find a chest with [Goat Cheese]. and another with [Star Prism]. CV West Sword Memorial. Continue (pick up another Hourglass), and there is another chest with [Magic Shield Recipe] in this final room. West Valley First Room Again Now back-track all the way to the room where you entered the West Valley (it is marked with a right hand arrow on your map), and this time go left. You can cut grass and get bags with Dragon Bone up here and another Hourglass. Now you will reach another choice or routes. Go left for now and open a chest for [Heal All], then head south at the next junction. There is another choice of routes so head down first, and keep walking to the left following the path. At one point there is short track to the right and another broken crystal. Mend this and pick up an Hourglass and a couple of crystals on an island. Now carry on and eventually you will be heading back to the east, but keep going and you end up in a room with just a couple of enemies and not much else. Back to the long room with another choice of exit and this time head north taking the left most path. There are three bags close together and then the path turns back to the right. Here there is a room with two chests and a number of enemies. The chests contain [Black Bustier] armor and [Goat Cheese]. ----------------------------- Celestial Rookery - Chapter 6 ----------------------------- This area opens up during the quest of the same name and is situated behind the village. There are very few enemies here, and some rooms have none at all. Walk right from the village and keep going left following the path until you come to a broken crystal. Use a Breath of Earth and in the one room there are two chests [Star Prism] and [Holy Emblem]. You can also break the large and small solid crystals in here for bags and to help towards another Field Bonus. Make your way back to the fork in the path and jump up the steps for a chest with a new recipe [Dragon Lance]. Celestial Road You are now in a large room on your map, with three paths. Carry on up the path for a chest with [Astral Cane] next to a broken crystal. Mend this and head into the room beyond for two chests [Horseman's Outfit] armor and [Glittering Thread], and a bit more crystal smashing. Return to the main path heading down. There is another broken crystal leading to another small room with one chest [Spicy Fruit]. Continue back on the main path heading to the right, and after wending your way down a crystal path this takes you to the actual Rookery, where Faustus Mana is found after the usual boss battle. ---------------------------------------- Crystal Valley North - Chapter 7 Mission ---------------------------------------- You first gain access to this area during the mission in chapter 7 and Iris will remove the large crystal structure that blocked the first room. There is an hourglass in the first area and make your way through the enemies heading to the left. In this next room stay low and there is a broken crystal to mend at the far left, though this only leads to a red crystal. Then walk up the path to the next room where there is a chest with [Thin Leotard] and another with [Moon Prism]. After this minor detour return to the first room and this time walk right, taking the path that leads to the north. There are two bags in the next room with the previously rare Gravity Stones, and lots of crystals to break, but no enemies until you reach the next larger room. Here there are two possible paths. Take the lower right and use a Breath of Earth to pick up a red crystal, but that's all. If you go left from the rectangular room (the third one in this map), you must use another Breath of Earth and then you can cross to another room with two exits. Sealed Lands At the first junction go left and down and this path leads around and back under the path and to a heal point (if you are on the mission for chapter 7)). Continue to find Crowley in a room called Sealed Lands, though there is nothing else there if you return later. Alternatively from the junction jump up the steps and mend the crystal to enter another room with an Hourglass, and continue to the final room at the far west of the map, to find three chests with [Astral Staff Recipe], [Alberich], and [Moon Prism]. Back in the rectangular room take the upper right path and mend another crystal. This takes you into a new L shaped room with two more exits. Keep going right on the lower path to reach the final room with one chest containing the rare [Alberich], and another with an [Elixir]. Return to the main path and follow it around to the left for a chest with [Star Prism]. The next room to the left of the L shaped room might have more Gravity Stones in a couple of bags and the final small room has more crystals to smash and chests with [Moon Prism] and [Element Blaze], a weapon for Nell. =============================================================================== V.

In fact Ishtar was really my inspiration for writing this FAQ as I was determined to master its secrets!

If you jump onto the nearest boat, and then the rock and finally onto the second boat, you can then jump to the house. Open the door and go inside. There is a portal here. However the guard won't let you through until the right time of the game (in Chapter Four).Then he will be outside the door, and you can go through ther portal into Ishtar.

Blue opens up the second fishing pond and the Tree that can be hit with the Hammer. =============================================================================== o W A L K T H R O U G H =============================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------- First Visit - Chapter 4, Woofer Village and 2nd Terrace North ------------------------------------------------------------ You can follow this walkthrough to complete the first Ishtar quest and obtain the Siren Mana. Make your way down the sloping swords to the Sky Gardens Entrance Room, which is shown on the map as having a teleporter. Get used to these as there are an awful lot of them and Ishtar takes a bit of getting used to. Hop down the vines and pick up the contents of two bags, then walk onto the large pipe leading left and slash, jump over, or fight the enemy that is hiding there. Enter the teleporter and press X to arrive at 1st Level Terrace. First Level Terrace (You can see a red mark on your map showing the location of the first Lithograph for the Disorderly Time quest) and three more teleporters. Slide down the vines and you will land on a small rock with an enemy. Then slide down the second vine (you cannot jump to the pipe behind this rock), and you will probably end up in a fight with a large red enemy that lurks at the bottom to trap the unwary. If you walk to the left there will be a large sword blocking the path, (and a *Woofer 1) so leave that for now. Instead walk up the path to the next teleporter (*Woofer 2) which takes you to the Woofer village 2nd Level Terrace North - Woofer Village There is an Hourglass here and *Woofers 3 and *Woofer 4, and another one who runs a shop. You can buy Altena Souls and Heal Jars here if you need them. Walk up and enter the house and this is the *Woofer 5 Chief's Room. There is a chest containing [Devil's Panties]. Climb up the left hand vines and speak to the *Woofer 6 here, who tells you that you'll need something to melt ice if you want to go further. Route to 2nd Level Terrace South (no access without Flame Barrett). NOTE: this route is still 2nd Level Terrace North until you actually enter the teleporter to the South Terrace. Follow the pipe behind him (to the left) and there is a chest at the far end containing [Black Liquid]. You can make your way down the flat metal circles and then up the next set of circles to a teleporter at the top, which takes you to 2nd Level Terrace South, but as the Woofer told you, there are ice blocks to the path and that is as far as you can go for this first visit. Woofer Village Again From the top of the left pillar you can jump to the chest at the top of the right pillar. This is tricky to judge and you may fall down more than once. Try and jump from the furthest upper edge of the rock and aim for the red crystal. This chest has a recipe for [Cursed Doll] so it's worth the effort. Now walk to the right of the Village, (without going all the way right to the next room) down the path and then left to meet *Woofer 7 and *Woofer 8. Past them is *Woofer 9, and a Lithograph coloured blue. This is the first of the two Lithographs you need to find for the first Ishtar quest. After Iris translates, you will see another red mark all the way to the right on the 2nd Level Terrace Map, so walk down the right hand path from the Village. 2nd Level Terrace North - Garden Here you will find *Woofer 10 and he will talk about making a garden. This is where the Garden will be eventually. Keep heading right and take the contents of a chest [Pendelook]. Follow the only path until you cross a log to the next room. Here is *Woofer 11 standing on the edge of a cliff. There is only one to way to go - and that is down. You will land on a ledge and an enemy. After killing whatever it is, open the chest for another [Pendelook]. Jump down again and walk up where the path splits to find an Hourglass. Grassy Area Cross the wooden log bridge to the next room where there is grass to cut. First walk right over a small log to find a chest [Witch Staff] in the next small room and a couple of bags. Then walk left into the next L-shaped room. You are close to the second Lithograph now. Walk left and then down, following the grassy track, until you reach a bridge. If you walk up from the bridge there is more grass and a number of bags. (You can often find Laughing Shroom here) Then walk to the right, and you will enter the room where there is a Lithograph and a fishing spot. Lithograph and Fishing Pond There is a chest close to the wooden bridge containing [Balmung] a weapon for Nell. Keep grass trimming for the Field Bonus as well as some useful items. Cross the bridge and follow the path across the pond. If you go right as far as you can you will find the fishing spot. Walk left and you will find the Lithograph that is red the first time you see it (for the Disorderly Time quest.) Route to 3rd Level - Sound Hill (Siren Mana) If you cross the bridge and follow the grassy path this leads to another teleporter and grass that can be cut for Roses. If you enter the teleporter you will end up at Sound Hill. This is a room on its own, and the only reason for going here is to fight an optional boss for another Mana pact. There is a chest with [Nectar] where you arrive, and then if you walk to the right with no warning at all, there will be a battle and the reward for winning is the Mana, Siren. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Second Visit - Chapter Five - 2nd Terrace South (with Flame Barrett) -------------------------------------------------------------------- Climb up the vines in the Village and head left along the pipe. Follow the metal plates jumping up at the end to the teleporter which takes you to the Second Level South. Melt the ice and speak to the *Woofer 14 climb up the path and then go left along the pipe to an empty room for a chest [X Heal]. The room down the other pipe is the one where you find Gramps and the kids for a quest, but there is nothing else in there. Now take the lower right hand pipe into another small room with a chest containing [Dragon Bone]. (The bags in this area will yield both Pendelook and Strange Slab.) The other right hand pipe leads to a room with one chest containing [Winged Boots] an accessory. You will probably have to fight the large red enemy that hovers around on the metal plate before jumping onto this pipe. The teleporter at the top of the path (next to Gregor) takes you to another part of the 2nd Level Terrace. Hop along the metal plates heading to the right and open a chest for [Worn Weapon]. Keep following the path left and there is a * Woofer 11 blocking your access to a chest. I found the Woofer gone from blocking the chest containing the recipe for [Hades Axe] when the beads were showing as five left, so I think he takes a lunch break around the middle of the day. Route to Third Level Terrace and Clock Continue along a wide path between sword hilts, to another teleporter, and then jump up past a large red enemy to yet one more teleporter. This takes you to third level terrace where you can talk to K33p3r who is standing in front of (you've guessed it) yet another teleporter. This last one takes you to the Clock of Foreign Time. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 3rd Visit - Chapter Six - (with Splat Hammer, and Lithographs changed.) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- When you complete K33p3r's quest: "N33d t0 f1x cl0ck", you will receive the Splat Hammer and the ability to change the Lithographs. This means that you can access every area in Ishtar, so this is a description of how to do just that!. You can change the lithograph in the village. In fact you'll notice that the lithograph has been reset already to grey. You have the option to set to the present, future or past. Set one Lithograph and they ALL change. o Grey is present o Red is future. o Blue is past. o SET TO RED Set to red and the garden will appear, and the tree, that blocks access to the right hand rooms in the Third Level Terrace, will disappear. Third Level Terrace Return to the Woofer Village and test out your new powers on the rocks in front of the highest teleporter. Enter and you arrive at 3rd Level Terrace. Head down the path and right and open a chest for [Star Prism]. Go on right and if the lithograph was set to red (future) the tree that was blocking the way to the right will have gone. You can speak to the *Woofer 12 here (You can also walk around this area and head left to another room where there is a dead tree (if red/future), and in the next area there is a *Woofer 13, who will comment that a long time ago he caught fish here. If you climb the vine at the far side of the pond there is only an Hourglass to find.) o SET TO BLUE - the Pond in the Past From the Third Level Terrace take this same route to the left pond and now things will have changed. You can hit the tree behind the large red blob along the path for enemies or items to fall, and pick up Blue Pearls in bags, in the first room. Then at the Fishing Spot you can now fish. However, first walk to the right and there is a chest with [Unihorn Lance] recipe. (There is the same Hourglass up the vine at the far side of the pond.) o SET TO RED Follow the path past the tree stump and Woofer. Laughing Shroom is found in bags. Open the chest that you find where the path turns up the screen for a [Glowing Bracelet]. Just past the chest there is a flat metal platform and if you look to the north there is a gap in the rock wall. You can walk through here and onto a metal pipe to the next room. Straight ahead of you is a chest perched on a rock. To access this use the Flame Barret on the small unlit fire. (You have to walk around to the right to do this.) Leave the fire to burn and get the other chest opposite it which contains [Gravity Stone]. Eventually the ice will melt and you can jump up and open this chest for [Heaven's Feel} a piece of armor for a girl. Sword Hill - (Luplus Mana) Continue up this room onto another pipe.and you will arrive at Sword Hill. There is nothing to be found here just yet. However, if you return here in Chapter Six, once you have raised Iris Alchemy Level to 8 you can find an idea for the Ultimate Mech Sword recipe where the red stone shines. Return to the path where you went through the hole and go right this time. You will fall down into a room that has a couple of large red enemies and a bag that may contain Pendelook. Head back to the wall and climb up the vine. Now you must jump across the rocks to he far side of this area. This is surprisingly awkward to do at first. From the rock down from the vine start at the right corner and jump. If you do the same at the next you will miss, so start the jump nearer to this lower edge, and do the same for the next jump. The next rock is larger so this jump is easy, but the final one needs you to start at the upper edge, and then walk up to open the chest for the [Diamond Dust] recipe. ------------------------------- First Level Terrace - Chapter 6 ------------------------------- After changing one Lithograph to Red, the sword hilt that blocked the path going left from the First Level Terrace arrival point will be level with the ground and you can go past this and up to the teleporter to the other part of the First Level Terrace. There are some ice blocks that can be flamed and then climb up the rocks to find an Hourglass and a chest containing [Thorn Gauntlet]. Follow the path to the next room and along the pipe until you reach another Lithograph and a chest with a [Heal Har]. * Lithograph RED Keep this Lithograph RED and you can walk to the rooms at the far right. If you don't there is a tree blocking the path. Walk left from the Lithograph into the next room and down the path and then you can either go left or right. RIGHT Walk along the pipe to the right and speak to the *Woofer 13. There is an Hourglass at the bottom of the rocks and a chest with [Maid Dress] half way up the rock steps at the right of the room. You can get bags from the sword hilts if you walk in front of the sword. You will end up at the flattened hilt back where you started this trip, and if you jump down you cannot get back up and have to go all the way around again through the teleporter. LEFT Head left into the next room, where there are a couple of ice blocks and a large red enemy, and keep following the path to the next room. There are a fair few blobs along this path which will get in your way and are hard to avoid. Jump up a couple of metal plates to find a chest with [Black Liquid], and jump onto the sword hilts walking left to find another Hourglass. Jump down and there are four more ice-cubes and another Large red enemy. Continue into the next room where the path divides. One pipe leads up from the platform behind the large red enemy, and the other leads down some steps. Go down the steps first to find a chest with [Rainbow Feather]. Then take the pipe, which leads to a wall of ice blocks. Melt them and jump into the teleporter. ------------------------------- 3rd Level Terrace - Secret Path ------------------------------- Now here you will see another Lithograph if you jump onto the metal plate. Set this to BLUE if you want to collect some extra rocks that only appear if it's the past. Make your way down the pipes and there is a ladder leading down. You will probably find a large red enemy in the way. Go down another ladder and then right and up for a chest with [Brilliant Stone]. Head back to the ladders and go down another one (another red enemy is here as well), and continue along the pipe and then through the door in the hut. Mine Ruins This is the area that can easily be forgotten about for the later task of mapping all the Alterworlds. There are also rocks to break and two chests to open with [Pendelook] and [Draken] a weapon. There is still further to go and at the end of the path are some rocks all of which seem to yield various stones or ores. =============================================================================== C. O P T I O N A L B L A D E S - S I R E N A N D L U P L U S =============================================================================== Strictly speaking both these Blade are optional since they are not found as a part of the story, and you have to go a little out of your way to find them. However it would be hard to miss them especially if you are determined to explore every part of Ishtar. Both are essential and you would be hard pressed to complete all quests without having these Blades. I recommend obtaining both Blades as soon as you can, which for Siren is during your first visit to Ishtar in Chapter 4, and for Luplus at some point during chapter 7. If you prefer to wait until later chapters then you can do so. Siren grants Nell the skills "Team Kobold", which gives her a chance to steal an item from an enemy, and "Trick or Treat" which allows her to turn an enemy into a sweet. Luplus enables Edge to remove enemy time cards from the ACCB bar, and to cast "Slow", which is exceedingly useful for some powerful bosses. ===================== 1. SIREN - Sound Hill ===================== o---------------------------------------o | BOSS - CANICON | |---------------------------------------| | Location: Sound Hill, Ishtar | | Protections: Double Special, Magic | | Weakness: Ice | | Skills: Silence - all | | Drops: None | o---------------------------------------o o---------------------------------------o | BOSS - MUSICA | |---------------------------------------| | Location: Sound Hill, Ishtar | | Protections: Double Special, Physical | | Weakness: Electricity | | Skills: Nightmare - all (sleep) | | Drops: None | o---------------------------------------o As you can see, one is resistant to Magic and one to Physical attack, and they have differing elemental weaknesses. Target these appropriately depending on what Blades you have equipped. I happened to have Edge with Luplus so used him to attack Canicon. Iris had her wand of course, but it happened to be Ice element so that was not well planned!. I also had Nell with her normal Blades but I would recommend Nymph so she can heal any awkward status effects. Nurse Style armor will protect her from their status effects if you have managed to craft this. However with one Burst and Edge's Dancing Edge and Blink, Canicon was gone in a couple of rounds. You can use items for attack if the enemy has wrong-footed your Blades and weapons set-up. Defeat them both and you receive Siren, the Mana of Sound and Funnybell a new Blade weapon for Nell and she also can now use Siren Blades. ====================== 2. LUPLUS - Sword Hill ====================== o-------------------------------------------o | BOSS - SHADOWSTALKER | |-------------------------------------------| | Location: Sword Hill, Ishtar | | Protections: Special/Status Double, Magic | | Weakness: None | | Skills: Time Quake (all) | | Meteor - timed (all) | | Phantom Shift (clones and heals) | | Drops: None | o-------------------------------------------o Start by making sure you have a high Skills gauge before the battle begins, and everyone can hit for 6/7 Hits. Walk up the path of Sword Hill and when you reach the top the battle will begin. ---------------------------- Attrition/Defensive Strategy ---------------------------- This worked for me in chapter 7, although you may wish to wait until you can craft stronger equipment. My team were at Level 27/28, with this equipment, although I could have chosen better accessories! o My Team's Set-Up and Skills Edge: [Plua] Shadow Dagger, Funky Overalls, Healing Ankh, Thunder Bangle (Blessed Weapon and Magic +L,) Nell: [Nymph] Baba Yaga, Metamorabbit, Magical Torch, Demon Pot, Block, Iris : Hermes Staff, Seashell Bikini (this is excellent as it double resists magic), Hellfire and Vasilissa's Doll (Magic +L, Charge +L, Blessed Weapon) They all had +2 Hit as well, and both Blades were at the maximum level 5. NOTE: the recipe for the Seashell Bikini is the Fish Bikini and this is a reward for achieving 7000 points for the Field Bonus in Valtessa. o How this strategy works Basically my strategy was to use Nell for healing and boosting defense and attack, with Edge raising the burst gauge and Iris as the main attacker using the Diemia ploy. I also accepted the fact that I was unlikely to be able to destroy the SS before he cloned, though I had hoped at least to smash one of the Shadowstalker's clones before he spilt into four, but was not successful, though I think if I had a weapon with Delay+ (L) this would have helped. Nonetheless, no-one died during the battle and with Nell doing the healing this seems to be quite an effective approach. She can also heal with a Cure Jar which will both restore HP and remove any negative status effects. It continues for three rounds, AND it only costs one skill point. Of course she can also use a Heal Jar and if the healing card has its turn during a burst then the effect is magnified. Her Mental Ward will assist in defending against the SS's magic for five turns and this skill also only uses up one skill point. Frozen Shard is her main attack skill if you get a chance to use it. Edge with Plua has a speed advantage and can use Personal Call to great effect to increase his number of turns, and his Illusion Edge attack quickly increases the Burst Gauge. His all enemies attack (Dancing Edge) is useful too, especially when you have all four SS's to attack, though you are only likely to be able to use this during a Burst as it requires 5 skill points. Plua often automatically activates to block many attacks, and this gives Edge some extra protection from all those Meteors and other nasty things. Iris should be used to help with the Burst Gauge as well as summoning Jiptus to reduce SS's power, but her main role is when you get a burst and to summon Diemia. If she has the Blessed Weapon on one of her pieces of equipment and high magic, then she can inflict massive damage on all clones at once with this attack. The main drawback to this Blades set-up is that SS is resistant to magic attacks and you will only have one physical attacker. However with the additional hits giving everyone 6 or 7 hits, this isn't as much of a disadvantage as you might expect. o ShadowStalker's Attacks and Skills Ordinary physical attack - hits one. (This is less likely to be Iris as she is in the back row.) Time Quake - hits all and decreases Magic Defence. Meteor - a timed attack that hits all. Phantom Shift - when his health is around half, he will use this skill to clone himself with both SS back at full health. Then when one of these is at half health it too will use this skill, and so will the other one, so you can end up with 4 SS's, all at what appears to be full health, and all with the same range of attacks and defenses. That's the bad news, but the good news is that each time he clones the clone has half the HP (well, a lot less, anyway) of the inital SS so they become easier to defeat. There is a maximum of four clones, and once you see all four on screen then all you have to worry about is not dying from multiple Meteor attacks, and destroying them all as fast as possible. In the end it took around 4 or 5 bursts to win this battle. Now you will get the Mana of Time, Luplus, and Magician's Book, which is a weapon for Edge's Luplus Blade. By the way, you MUST have Luplus if you are to stand any chance of winning the battle against the Mini Puni the final chapter of the game. =============================================================================== E.

C H A R A C T E R S K I L L S A N D B L A D E S....................E09 ============================================================================== Be aware that some of these skills use up items. You can check how many you have on the skills menu for the character when they are equipped with the relevant Blade. Edge and Nell use Blades and have five possible Blades each, although four of these can only be accessed once Iris has made a pact with the appropriate Mana. You can ONLY change Blades in the Workshop, and in the final dungeon, the Distorted Dimension. Blades will level up when you gain Blade Points from fighting battles. They start with the first (Level One) skill and every Blade has five levels. Every Blade has specialised weapons and these are not interchangeable, although you can change the weapon for that particular Blade when in the field. ============================================================================== E D G E 'S B L A D E S ============================================================================== NORMAL: Edge's standard combat outfit.

A L C H E M Y .L E V E L S A N D I D E A S ..........................E11 =============================================================================== In order to receive these ideas Iris must raise her alchemy level. Every time you craft something new the Alchemy Level bar (seen at the bottom left of the screen) will increase a little. ONLY never-before-crafted items will raise her level, so it's no good if you just make more of the same stuff. When her level increases she also gains additional Magic and Magic Defense points to her overall stats, so it makes sense to make new items as soon as you can. You can find the actual Recipe when you encounter the appropriate place or thing that has a light-bulb picture of Iris' face. Although some of these have an in-built restriction, for example, you cannot find the locations in Ishtar until you have access there, it is possible to find some of the recipes fairly early on in the game if you make sure to raise Iris's alchemy level.

C R E D I T S L E G A L A N D C O N T A C T ............G01 =============================================================================== Thank you to Gust for making such a lovely game and NIS America and Koei for bringing it to the West, even to the UK! Thank you to GameFAQs for accepting my FAQs. Thanks to the other FAQs on GameFAQs. I found the Bestiary by GinFreaks, and Alchemy FAQ by Arthain especially helpful for their comprehensive lists, and the walkthroughs by PeTeRL90 and Kouli helped with a number of quests. GinFreaks' FAQ also gives the trait removal strategy for the Pot and has many useful battle tips. Thanks also to people who post on the AI3 board and in particular 911IronHelix who posted a very helpful list on alchemy ideas and field bonuses, and Natwaf_akidna who alerted me to the fact that any fishing spot would do for finding the recipe for Risque Outfit. Thanks to Kurama13 for an elegant strategy to kill the Aladdin Pot. Thanks to Psycho_Penguin for the "Luck" strategy. Also for telling me how to improve the lists, details of the Dark Gem CS skill, and more, much more. :D Thanks to Shotgunnova for the ASCII template for the Sony Controller. Mine is adapted slightly from his. Thanks to Saikyo Mog for his continued support and advice. I tried to track down the Evil Laughing Underwater Zombie who drops Clogged Snorkel and treat is Sludge Fudge, but unfortunately it cannot be found anywhere, even if you switch every Lithograph in Ishtar to the future. But thanks anyway. You know why. ;) LEGAL BIT This guide may be not be reproduced under any circumstances except for personal, private use.
