About the LLG| ------------------ -------------- |I.1 Versions| -------------- Version 1.0: Initial release, featuring walkthrough and strategys for the basic Low Level Game. There may come a section for additional boss strategys on the lowest average game, but that's a maybe for now. File Size: 138 KB. ------------- |I.2 History| ------------- Well, as for history, there really isn't much to say other then that I wanted a real challenge. I have never seen anyone try before and people deemed it impossible. And for sure, it took me some time to manage as well - but with some tricks it definitely works out. ---------------------------- |I.3 Definitions of the LLG| ---------------------------- There is many different types of Low Level Games out there! But for Breath of Fire II, there is only three types of any means, as any others would definitely be easier. Type 1: Use Bleu and all EXP to her and Ryu Type one. With a level 35 character, the game becomes insanely easy. And even up to the point you can get her, Ryu takes all the EXP, so this still goes without any problems. The only hard parts are where your party members go solo. And that parts are all manageable (Rand's Scenario with some more strategy though). All in all, this type is not recommended. High level characters spoil the challenge. Levels are 13 for Ryu, 11 Nina, 9 Rand, 11 Sten, all others will be on initial level. Average Level: 12 Level Difference: 34 Type 2: Minimum average level (Add all levels and divide by number of characters) This Type gives you a quite powerful Ryu, as he absorbs nearly all EXP. You must have him at level 13 for a special fight either way, so he is best for absorbing everything in this game. Though, a level 18 Ryu VS Barubary is still rather OK, as with enough Items, he will steadily survive. This game is actually discussable in terms of challenge. Type 3 is my personal favorite for LLG's though. Your levels in this game will be 18 for Ryu, 11 Nina, 9 Rand, 11 Sten and all others on initial level. Calculation here is different as you will gain bonus EXP with levels so far off. As Bleu doesn't count in for average in this game: Average Level: 9.75 Level Difference: 17 Type 3: Lowest difference in level with minimized average level THE type of LLG we looked out for. Enemies in Infinity one shotting our group. Endless resets for Boss fights. What do you want more? Your levels at the end of game will be 12-13 with this. Average Level: 12.375 Level Difference: 1 This guide will discuss the Type 3 game. Boss strategys for Type 2 may come in the future, but are delayed for now. Also, as a additional challenge, you can decide to fight one of every kind of enemy (as far as they don't show solo and thus would give unneccessary EXP). This guide will also feature a basic rundown of enemies. ---------------------- |I.4 Additional Rules| ---------------------- Don't forget we want a challenge. So basically, we will have to do some restrictions: 1) Stat Boosters, namely Dinker, GutsBL, LuckCndy, MisoSoup, PwrFood and Stamina, is forbidden. You may use them for cooking though. 2) Do not gain EXP by fighting random enemies. Even if you do not gain a level with it, winning items from this would not be allowed. 3) Items won in battles that don't fall under 2) (namely boss drops) are forbidden to use if they cannot be bought or cooked up. With that, you are allowed to use Herbs and WiseBL that drop, but things like Habaruku's SilverHT are not to be used. With this sayd, it is time to look on EXP distributions. ----------------------------------- |I.5.1 EXP For Lowest Average Game| ----------------------------------- As I sayd, Ryu will get about all, but other characters will absorb some EXP to minimize the average. This will be the distribution: Name EXP Surviver Level Beak 5 Ryu 1 Harpys 150 Ryu 1 -> 5 Pestx6 42 Ryu 5 Roach 32 Ryu 5 Baba 150 Ryu 5 -> 6 Dir.HR 169 Ryu 6 -> 7 Katt 200 Ryu 7 Augus 150 Ryu 7 -> 8 Hood 45 Katt 6 P.Spider + Hood 75 Katt 6 Hood 45 Ryu 8 4 Hoods 180 Ryu 8 Joker 300 Ryu 8 -> 9 Creon 60 Sten 8 Terapin 300 Ryu 9 Nimufu 400 Sten 8 -> 9 Wild Cat 700 Nina 8 -> 9 Jailer 288 Ryu 9 J.Worm 440 Ryu 9 -> 10 G.Roach 500 Sten 9 -> 10 GoldFly 520 Nina 9 Kuwadora 1600 Ryu 10 -> 11 Footman 100 Ryu 11 Trout 1600 Ryu 11 -> 12 Munmar 1150 Ryu 12 M.C.Tusk 2700 Ryu 12 -> 13 Torubo 1750 Sten 10 -> 11 Portal 2400 Ryu 13 -> 14 Shupukay 2350 Ryu 14 -> 15 Aruhamel 3200 Ryu 15 Bush 200 Ryu 15 Bush 216 Rand 6 -> 7 Stone 216 Jean 10 Stump 300 Spar 12 Stump 300 Ryu 15 S.Golem 1624 Spar 12 Paladin 1080 Rand 7 -> 9 Guardian 2592 Nina 9 -> 11 Footman 1500 Ryu 15 -> 16 Zombies 3000 Ryu 16 Necroman 3800 Ryu 16 -> 17 Archer 324 Jean 10 Archer 324 Jean 10 Habaruku 3800 Ryu 17 -> 18 Barubary 4000 Ryu 18 -------------------------------------- |I.5.2 EXP For Lowest Difference Game| -------------------------------------- Perfect distribution here, no extra EXP gained. Strategys for this game are in the main walkthrough. Name EXP Surviver Level Beak 5 Ryu 1 Harpys 150 Bow 1 -> 5 Pestx6 42 Ryu 1 -> 3 Roach 32 Ryu 3 -> 4 Baba 150 Ryu 4 -> 5 Dir.HR 169 Ryu 5 -> 6 Katt 200 Ryu 6 -> 7 Augus 150 Katt 6 -> 7 Hood 45 Katt 7 P.Spider + Hood 75 Katt 7 Hood 45 Katt 7 -> 8 4 Hoods 180 Katt 8 Joker 300 Katt 8 -> 9 Creon 60 Nina 8 Terapin 300 Katt 9 -> 10 Nimufu 400 Katt 10 Wild Cat 700 Nina 8 -> 9 Jailer 288 Rand 6 -> 7 J.Worm 440 Ryu 7 -> 8 G.Roach 500 Sten 8 -> 9 GoldFly 520 Sten 9 -> 10 Kuwadora 1600 Sten 10 -> 11 Footman 100 Bow 5 -> 6 Trout 1600 Bow 6 -> 10 Munmar 1150 Ryu 8 -> 10 M.C.Tusk 2700 Rand 7 -> 11 Torubo 1750 Sten 11 -> 12 Portal 2400 Katt 10 -> 12 Shupukay 2350 Nina 9 -> 11 Aruhamel 3200 Jean 10 -> 12 Bush 200 Jean 12 Bush 200 Jean 12 Stone 200 Bow 10 -> 11 Stump 300 Jean 12 Stump 300 Jean 12 S.Golem 1624 Bow 11 -> 12 Paladin 1000 Rand 11 -> 12 Guardian 2400 Nina 11 -> 12 Footman 1500 Ryu 10 -> 11 Zombies 3000 Ryu 11 -> 12 Necroman 3800 Ryu 12 -> 13 Archer 300 Spar 12 Archer 300 Spar 12 Habaruku 3800 Spar 12 -> 13 Barubary 4000 Rand 12 -> 13 Also, for your viewing pleasure, I made a excel tab for all kind of LLG's. It can be found at http://www.freewebs.com/snemesis/BoF/ . -------------------------- |I.6 About the Walkthrough| -------------------------- The walkthrough won't navigate you through everything. I suggest you to have maps, locations of treasure and most of common knowledge about Breath of Fire II in mind at all times. Other then that, the walkthrough will look like this: Items: LifePI: Rangers room. Antdt: Second floor of Inn. Enemies: !E.Sludge, Leech, -Chorking, (S.Idol), *Baba |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Baba HP: 169 Stamina | |Formation: Normal | |Movement: Baba (20), Ryu (15) | |Surviver: Ryu 4 -> 5 Total EXP: 150 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Ryu Lv. 4 |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |SilverDR |--- |--- |--- | |Shield |IronSH |--- |--- |--- | |Armor |IronML |--- |--- |--- | |Helmet |KnightHT |--- |--- |--- | |Etc1 |StickRod |--- |--- |--- | |Etc2 |Worm x9 |--- |--- |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |Boss strategy! | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| This means: Items: guess this is self-explaining. Enemies: !E.Sludge: This is the first time you encounter this enemy and should kill it once to see its HP bar. Leech: You should already know this enemy and see its HP bar. -Chorking: This enemy only shows alone, so you won't be able to win without gaining EXP. Skip this ones at all cost. (S.Idol) Brackets mean this enemy is rare to encounter in this area, or simply doesnt show with a partner here. You are better off fighting it later, somewhere else. *Baba: This is a battle you cannot run from, but must fight. Boss Box: This box gives information on how to handle boss fights. Name: Name of the enemy. HP: Enemy Hit Points Item: The item the boss can drop. Forbidden to use in most cases. In case of Baba, he can drop a Stamina. Formation: The Formation you should fight in mainly. Movement: The order in which everyone will act. The brackets show actual Vigor rating. If there is more then one number in brackets for a name it means it may change. Surviver: The one character who will survive, and what level he will move to. In this case, Ryu will get from 4 to 5. Total EXP: The amount of EXP gained. Bond: Shamans to Bond. This isn't actually neccessary, but always recommended. Weapon, Armor, Shield, Helmet, Etc1, Etc2: Gear to wear. Also note that characters are listed in order they should stand in. ------------------- |I.7 Tips'n'Tricks| ------------------- - Running is hard in this game. You should always have a lot of healing items with you to best your chances. Also, being fast helps for this as well. - Once you attain the holy shaman, you can transform Nina. In this form, she can use the Banish-Ability. Have her in the last position and all others defend, then use it. Mostly works and makes the last part of the game much easier. - Know how to cook! Having enough money to afford all gear for all characters is definitely great and early ShaveIce as well as WiseBL's are needed as well. - Dragons are great, but don't overdo it! Always keep track of bosses HP and only kill your characters when you are sure to do a good finish. ---------------- |II Walkthrough| ---------------- --------------------------- |II.1 Prologue to SimaFort| --------------------------- ------ |Gate| ------ Items: TreePole: Right at your starting Position. Herb: First house, second floor. Herb: Second house, first floor.

Antdt: Second floor of Inn. Herb: Second floor of church, only accessible later. Enemies: !E.Sludge, !Hunchbak, !Gonghead, !Leech After Prologue, go fish. When you are ready to proceed: go fish again! This is the best time for a while to get money. Make sure to buy: BronzeSD, FalseBW, 2xSuedeAR, 2xSaladBwl, 2xSteelAR Total: 1510 Coins Also, keep in mind that you will mostly need Items for Healing, so around 90 Herbs, 27 Antdt, 9 LifePI and 27 Smoke would be good for starters. Also, get a few thousand Coins as Back-Up in the Bank. After you got enough stuff, go to Mt.Fubi. |-------| |Mt.Fubi| |-------| Items: SaladBwl: At first intersection in the caves, skip the passageway and continue south. FireRock: At second intersection, go left. Enemies: !S.Goblin, !Widow, !Corpse, Gonghead, Leech, *Palo, *Peach, *Puti Have Ryu in the back Position!! Proceed as normal (running from every battle) until the Harpys. Note: You may want to use a Smoke after the Dragon Fountain. |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Palo HP: 90 Herb | |Name: Puti HP: 40 Herb | |Name: Peach HP: 40 Herb | |Formation: Scramble | |Movement: Palo (511), Peach (510), Puti (509), Ryu (11), Bow (7) | |Surviver: Bow 1 -> 5 Total EXP: 150 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Bow Lv. 1 |Ryu Lv. 1 |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |FalseBW |BronzeSD |--- |--- | |Shield |SteelAR |SteelAR |--- |--- | |Armor |SuedeAR |SuedeAR |--- |--- | |Helmet |SaladBwl |SaladBwl |--- |--- | |Etc1 |--- |StickRod |--- |--- | |Etc2 |--- |Worm x9 |--- |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |Have Ryu defend the first round and Bow attack Peach. | |The second round, Bow attacks again and Ryu Herb himself. | |From now on have Bow attack Peach/Puti until those two are dead and Ryu | |either defend or use a Herb on himself. Keep track about Palo's HP and when | |it gets below 20, kill off Ryu, then finish her off. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| Resurrect Ryu and continue, taking the SaladBwl and FireRock along the way. After going off Mt.Fubi, continue to the Ruins. |-----| |Ruins| |-----| Enemies: *Pest, *Roach Save, heal up and enter the Boss battles. |------------------------------- Forced Battle -------------------------------| |Name: Pestx6 HP: 10 each Herb | |Formation: Scramble | |Movement: Pest (30), Bow (14), Ryu (11) | |Surviver: Ryu 1 -> 3 Total EXP: 42 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Bow Lv. 5 |Ryu Lv. 1 |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |FalseBW |BronzeSD |--- |--- | |Shield |SteelAR |SteelAR |--- |--- | |Armor |SuedeAR |SuedeAR |--- |--- | |Helmet |SaladBwl |SaladBwl |--- |--- | |Etc1 |--- |StickRod |--- |--- | |Etc2 |--- |Worm x9 |--- |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |These are one-hit-kills.

Ryu is faster then Roach is so no problem. | |Use Def.Up on Ryu to give it a safe feeling, then kill Bow again. The | |cockroach also has the ability to "Get up", which puts it back in action | |after it's HP went to 0. But no worrys. Just Heal when necessary. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| After the battles, get back to HomeTown and through the story. If you got less then 20000 Coins (AFTER restocking), while you didn't return Suzy is THE chance to get them. You will need the money. Bring Bow back to Ruins and journey up to Coursair. |--------| |Coursair| |--------| Items: Bum'sCL: Second floor of Inn. Herb: Second floor of Inn. Herb: Second floor of Church. Smoke: Second floor of Pub. Enemies: !Biruburu, !Eaterman, !Devilkid, !Tsi.Fly Begin your stay by buying the following Equips: HexadST, LeotrdCL, 2xBronzeHT Total: 1350 Coins After talking to Rand, continue to TagWoods.

Smoke: After second elevator ride. 100C: Far south of second elevator ride. Enemies: !Harpy, !Bugbear, Eaterman, -Docaden, *Baba Get the Gold and out of this Woods again! Go fish with it and get the Maniro near Coursair. Buy the following: SilverDR, 2xKnightHT, 3xIronML, 3xIronSH, 2xSilkGL Total: 12980 Coins and equip Ryu with the best of those. Now, re-enter Tagwoods and confront.. |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Baba HP: 169 Stamina | |Formation: Normal | |Movement: Baba (20), Ryu (15) | |Surviver: Ryu 4 -> 5 Total EXP: 150 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Ryu Lv. 4 |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |SilverDR |--- |--- |--- | |Shield |IronSH |--- |--- |--- | |Armor |IronML |--- |--- |--- | |Helmet |KnightHT |--- |--- |--- | |Etc1 |StickRod |--- |--- |--- | |Etc2 |Worm x9 |--- |--- |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |I hope your Cond is OK or better, your Counter Attacks can be helpful. Else, | |with your new Equipment, Baba shouldn't be able to kill you in 2 hits, so | |just start a attack-herb-pattern to get him down in no time. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| If you die on the way out, so be it. Return to Coursair, proceed with the story and enter the Coliseum. |--------| |Coliseum| |--------| Items: 1000C: Locker Room. Enemies: *Dir.HR, *Katt, *Augus The first thing to do is a Interview. |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Dir.HR HP: 160 Herb | |Formation: Normal | |Movement: Dir.HR (255), Ryu (18) | |Surviver: Ryu 5 -> 6 Total EXP: 169 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Ryu Lv. 5 |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |SilverDR |--- |--- |--- | |Shield |IronSH |--- |--- |--- | |Armor |IronML |--- |--- |--- | |Helmet |KnightHT |--- |--- |--- | |Etc1 |StickRod |--- |--- |--- | |Etc2 |Worm x9 |--- |--- |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |Basically, same strategy as against Baba, just less healing and faster. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| Rest, save and continue with the story until.. |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Katt HP: 220 Herb | |Formation: Normal | |Movement: Katt (511), Ryu (20) | |Surviver: Ryu 6 -> 7 Total EXP: 200 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Ryu Lv. 6 |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |SilverDR |--- |--- |--- | |Shield |IronSH |--- |--- |--- | |Armor |IronML |--- |--- |--- | |Helmet |KnightHT |--- |--- |--- | |Etc1 |StickRod |--- |--- |--- | |Etc2 |Worm x9 |--- |--- |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |With your gear, she can only scratch you. Just heal in time and this should | |be no problem. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| Make sure to SAFE KATT! (hold the control pad up after the fight). She is pretty nice to have in the next boss fight, but remember to equip her in advance. |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Augus HP: 680 Herb | |Formation: Normal | |Movement: Katt (33), Ryu (24), Augus (12), Rand (7) | |Surviver: Katt 6 -> 7 Total EXP: 150 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Ryu Lv. 7 |Katt Lv. 6 |Rand Lv. 6 |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |SilverDR |HexadST |HandKN |--- | |Shield |IronSH |SilkGL |IronSH |--- | |Armor |IronML |IronML |SuedeAR |--- | |Helmet |KnightHT |SaladBwl |BronzeHT |--- | |Etc1 |StickRod |--- |--- |--- | |Etc2 |Worm x9 |--- |--- |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |First things first: Equip Rand (IronSH and BronzeHT). Congratulations, you | |just got Rand his best Helmet! sigh.. Anyway, keep track about Augus HP and | |note that he can use Cure1. For Healing, use Unagis if you are hit for more | |then 40 damage, else Cure1 from either Ryu or Rand should be OK too. Just | |make sure to kill Ryu and Rand off when Augus HP gets low and things should | |be fine. I know, having Katt survive is a pain, but what did you expect in | |this game? | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| Now would be another good time to go fish for money near HomeTown. Also, if you skipped the Items in TagWoods, get them now while you have three party members. After you are done, progress to the Ruins, HomeTown, and the Joker Hideout. |--------| |Mt.Rocko| |--------| Items: LuckCndy: After the stairs, south. SilverDR: After the stairs, far east. 100C: In second stairs room, to the right. 1000C: Entrance room, after the boss fight.

Shouldnt be too tough as well. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| After this battle, I recommend looting the treasures below (using a Smoke), then leaving this dungeon to save. Now, return and go for a series of battles. |------------------------------- Forced Battle -------------------------------| |Name: Hood HP: 82 Herb | |Formation: Scramble | |Movement: Katt (40), Hood (35), Ryu (24) | |Surviver: Katt 7 -> 8 Total EXP: 45 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Ryu Lv. 7 |Katt Lv. 7 |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |SilverDR |HexadST |--- |--- | |Shield |IronSH |SilkGL |--- |--- | |Armor |IronML |IronML |--- |--- | |Helmet |KnightHT |SaladBwl |--- |--- | |Etc1 |StickRod |--- |--- |--- | |Etc2 |Worm x9 |--- |--- |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |Kill off Ryu straight away, like before. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------- Forced Battle -------------------------------| |Name: 4xHood HP: 82 each Herb | |Formation: Normal | |Movement: Katt (42), Hood (35), Ryu (24) | |Surviver: Katt Total EXP: 180 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Ryu Lv. 7 |Katt Lv. 8 |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |SilverDR |HexadST |--- |--- | |Shield |IronSH |SilkGL |--- |--- | |Armor |IronML |IronML |--- |--- | |Helmet |KnightHT |SaladBwl |--- |--- | |Etc1 |StickRod |--- |--- |--- | |Etc2 |Worm x9 |--- |--- |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |This one can be complicated. Damage each of them so they die in 1 hit. This | |is because if one of them dies, they can get back up after a few turns and | |thus give another punch of EXP. So just hope the best, but it should not be | |too difficult. Just kill off Ryu once the slaying begins. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Joker HP: 580 Herb | |Formation: Normal | |Movement: Katt (42), Nina (27), Ryu (24), Joker (24) | |Surviver: Katt 8 -> 9 Total EXP: 300 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Ryu Lv. 7 |Katt Lv. 8 |Nina Lv. 8 |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |SilverDR |HexadST |FalseRG |--- | |Shield |IronSH |SilkGL |SilkGL |--- | |Armor |IronML |IronML |LeotrdCL |--- | |Helmet |KnightHT |SaladBwl |SaladBwl |--- | |Etc1 |StickRod |--- |--- |--- | |Etc2 |Worm x9 |--- |--- |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |You will enter this battle fully healed, so no worry about reviving Ryu. | |First of all, equip Nina with a SaladBwl, LeotrdCL and SilkGL. This battle | |should feel pretty easy after the probably many resets for the Hoods. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| On the way out, snatch the 1000 Coins in the very first room and continue up to Windia. |------| |Windia| |------| Items: TreeST: Second floor of Inn. 100C: Second floor of Inn.

In the turtle room, you CAN skip another fight with Creon. When getting off the first turtle, make sure that the Creon is to the far left, and move up straight away. Your other characters will be used as a bumper as the Creon only moves left-right, not up. Now time it right to get on the second turtle and voila. Put Katt to the last position and start the fight. |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Terapin HP: 1300 Herb | |Formation: Defense | |Movement: Katt (45), Sten (36), Terapin (32), Nina (26), Ryu (24) | |Surviver: Katt 9 -> 10 Total EXP: 300 | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| | |Sten Lv. 8 |Ryu Lv. 7 |Nina Lv. 8 |Katt Lv. 9 | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |SilverDR |LongSD |MagicRG |HexadST | |Shield |IronSH |IronSH |SilkGL |SilkGL | |Armor |IronML |IronML |HolyRB |IronML | |Helmet |KnightHT |KnightHT |GlassRG |GlassRG | |Etc1 |--- |StickRod |--- |--- | |Etc2 |--- |Worm x9 |--- |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |Katt and Sten are faster then Terapin, so use them as main-healers. This | |battle may take a while. Make sure to be healthy all the time and keep good | |track about his HP. Once he goes below 180, kill off your characters (or | |simply, don't heal them and only Katt) and after that, use your FireRock | |(you should still have it from Mt.Fubi) to finish Terapin off. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| After you finish, the Creons in this room will be gone, so get the two chests and leave the room. Once Ray sets up the barrier, go out of the room, talk to the first guy you see there to rescue him, then talk to Ray again. (I know, safing one villager doesn't do anything, but why let him die if it doesn't give any EXP to do so?) Alternatively, you can go and free as many as you can, or even kill a villager to get the HP Bars done. If you wanna do this: The first cave has a villager without parasite. The second cave has 2 pathways and a Chiroru. The right path of second cave has a creon, so skip this. The left path is empty. Now taking the right side from start. The one villager you see is also the only one to reach, the other pathways are blocked. So after this, you get to a max of 3 villagers freed. As I sayd, it really wont matter to us, as we take the normal carpenter. Now, back to TownShip. Have fun on the walk. You will get Cure2 spell for someone, I suggest giving it to Nina as she can use Will in battle to replenish her AP, but she also has the most as of now so she will make your item uses a bit less. Now, back to Capitan, get Sana and Granny, back to Capitan again, get the Normal House Carpenter (the only one you can have) and buy a few WFruits (you now got your dragon powers! So use them). Continue by boat until the.. |--------| |WitchTwr| |--------| Items: CureAl: Left way after start. 3x1C, 5x100C, 1000C: Treasure Room Herb: 4th floor, on the way to switch room. SilkGL: Switch room. WizardRG: Switch room. WiseRB: Switch room. WiseHoop: Left Platform on 5th floor. WiseBL: Right Platform on 5th floor. SokletAR: Waterfall Cave. KmikzeBL: Waterfall Cave. Enemies: !H.Fly, !Catfish, !Stamen, !Pollen, !M.Mummy, !Ogre, !Monoped !Seenates, (S.Idol), *Nimufu Recommended Party: Sten, Ryu, Katt, Rand Note that you can run from the battles on the opening tile and that it must be Ryu pressing it (handsome guy stuff). What I recommend is to go through the tower and loot everything, then fall off the tower on the right side of the 5th floor and go save again, then come back to challenge Nimufu. Though, the tower nets pretty many battles, and the chests are mostly along the way.. so you may do another decision there. For the 5-way-room, numbering platforms from left to right 1 to 5 Platform 1 takes you further into the tower Platform 4 takes you to the treasure room Platform 5 takes you to the Water Shaman (after finishing the Tower) For the switch room, at the first 3 switches, step the center one, then step on the single one after the gate and the center of the next set of 3. Get the chest behind the second gate, then continue up (not pressing any other switch at the set of 3) and make sure you don't step on the switch at the top: you can skip it by walking near the wall. This way the last chests should be reachable and you only need to go back to the switch at the top to open the gate to the stairs. Anyway, after you reach the top floor, align your party and have fun with |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Nimufu HP: 550 WizardRG, FireRG | |Formation: Normal | |Movement: Katt (49), Nimufu (45), Sten (36), Ryu (24), Rand (7) | |Surviver: Katt Total EXP: 400 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Katt Lv.10 |Sten Lv. 8 |Ryu Lv. 7 |Rand Lv. 6 | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |HexadST |SilverDR |LongSD |RevetKN | |Shield |SilkGL |IronSH |IronSH |IronSH | |Armor |IronML |IronML |IronML |SuedeAR | |Helmet |GlassRG |KnightHT |KnightHT |BronzeHT | |Etc1 |Charm |--- |StickRod |--- | |Etc2 |WiseHoop |--- |Worm x9 |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |She can use the devasting SwtBrth attack and put you all to sleep.

I just hope you got a bunch of Herbs or other healing | |Items, like Unagis, with you. Anyway, first round, use a Puppy attack with | |Ryu, Sten Herb on Ryu, Katt defend and Rand WFruit on Ryu. Second round, | |Rand Katt and Sten use Herbs while Ryu uses another Puppy attack, taking | |Nimufu down to below 100HP. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| If you have enough resources after finishing Nimufu, go and get the Water Shaman, then leave. If not, just come back later. Go get Jean and after that the new Dragon Powers from the Waterfall. Don't equip the SokletAR just yet, though. Head back to TownShip now. |--------| |TownShip| |--------| Items: DivideBL: Unity room. Charcoal: Left house of first set. WiseBL: Center house of first set. 1C: Right house of second set. Nice little town you got there! First off, loot the houses as you won't be able to once you got the people to get in. Once done with this, head back to Hometown and enter the building left of your old house to recruit Hekkeller to your city. Next stop is Windia to recruit Baretta from the armory, after that continue over to Capitan and get Leminton from the inn to join you. Now it is time to head back to TownShip. If you are low on coins, you can make a few GoldBars out of your Unagis (if you still have some, that is, which you should). Cook 4 Unagi to get a GutsBL and 2 Unagi to get a ShaveIce. Now cook 2 ShaveIce and 2 GutsBL for a GoldBar. Do this for about 20000 Coins and have the carpenter make the city bigger. Go in and out of TownShip a few times until you get the second set of houses, then loot those. Get over to HomeTown again next and recruit Hanz from the same house you got Hekeller from. After that continue to Windia and recruit Daiye from the inn. The last house will stay empty for a little while longer. Now that you have Hanz, you can buy 3 CondUp's and cook them to a GoldBar at the Carpenters. This will give you a good source of money, so make sure to get some Coins straight away (600.000 is ok for now). After that, go shop in your sweet little town: Hekkellers Shop: FlameSD, BurnKN, FireRG, FireBW, HeatST, 3xMagmaAR, 3xFlameSH Lemintons Shop: WonderRP, MightyAR, DemonSH Hanz Shop: 4xD.Earing, 8xIronBR Total: 58040 Coins Equip the best of those to everyone. Also, get a few CondUps and buy 2 stacks of Bait fish from Daiye. As for Shamans, this are the combinations you can do right now: Rand Sana normal Rand Seso normal Nina Sana normal Nina Seso normal Sten Sana colored Sten Seso normal Jean Seso normal The best right now would be Sten and Sana as well as Nina and Seso. After all this, go cook about 5-10 ShaveIce (Freeze in battle) which need 2 Unagi to be made. That way, you have fire weapons and ice magic items. What can stand against you now?!? Once you are done, restock at Capitan (put stuff you won't need to the bank) and save near SimaFort, then go to the |-------| |WildCat| |-------| Recommended Party: Rand, Sten, Ryu, Nina Enemies: -Bouncer, -Witch, *WildCat (depending on when you visit) Take that party!!

Just make sure to have Bow equipped with the best you got for him (stuff from TownShip/SimaFort you bought in advance, in case you wondered why you had a few spare, as well as the SokletAR and two IronBR's).

Make some more money (you will need 900.000 Coins soon, for Spar). Also, you should cook some Biscuit (Def-UpX + CureX) which are made of 2 Dinker (which are 4 CureAl, which can be bought at SimaFort). Also, from this point on, you can encounter Grizlys when hunting. For that reason, try to have Bow in your party when you travel, and get a few (eight to twenty) SprRibs as you will need them later.

CloakKN: After throne room, right entrance. 1000C: Second junction after throne room, left way. MoonMask: In second maze room, take the teleporter in left sideway. Collar: After Portal, left stairs. Tolen: After Portal, left stairs. Enemies: !Pharaoh, !Ralooba, !Soulflik, !D.Brnger, Basilisk, Pollen, C.Sludge, *Trubo, *Portal, *Shupukay Recommended Party: Ryu, Sten, Katt, Nina Get through the story and get the chests down in the basement. After that, encounter Trubo. |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Trubo HP: 110 Herb | |Formation: Normal | |Movement: Trubo (72), Sten (38) | |Surviver: Sten 11 -> 12 Total EXP: 1750 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Sten Lv.11 |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |Sana |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |KingOfDR |--- |--- |--- | |Shield |BlndedML |--- |--- |--- | |Armor |SilverAR |--- |--- |--- | |Helmet |SokletAR |--- |--- |--- | |Etc1 |IronBR |--- |--- |--- | |Etc2 |IronBR |--- |--- |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |In the first fight with him, only use HelpBL's and defend the 4th turn.

It won't be enough to kill him, though, so attack him to | |end this battle, hopefully not at cost of Sten's shaman, though. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| After finishing Trubo, enter the door he just did, save and drink from the spring. Now continue the normal way. At the first junction you come to, there go 3 ways north and one south to the east. The center and right ones to north lead to chests, but both are useless. Though, no monsters up until here anyway, so grab whatever you want. Continue south and to the next room. On the next junction, go left for 1000C, then continue right. Next, you will come to the room with 4 stairs and your party in the northern part. Continue by using the second stairs from right. Next cradle, go south and skip the entrance along the way. Enter the doorway at the very end for a teleport tile. You will pass the throne room for another teleport tile and come to a room with 3 ways. Left and right have chests, while the center way is the way you need to go. At the next junction, the left way nets 1000C, the right continues to your party. Now that you got your party back, switch back to defensive positions. At the first maze room, go left, left, down, down, up and down. Second maze room goes right, down, then left for a recovery spring and a chest with MoonMask. Now, return to the last junction, go up, right, down, down, right, up, right and up the stairs. You will end up in a room with 3 teleporters. Left and right lead nowhere we haven't been to yet, so enter the center one and confront |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Portal HP: 1530 Herb | |Formation: Defense | |Movement: Katt (72), Portal (70), Sten (42), Nina (27), Ryu (8) | |Surviver: Katt 10 -> 12 Total EXP: 2400 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Ryu Lv.10 |Sten Lv.12 |Nina Lv. 9 |Katt Lv.10 | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |Sana |Seso |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |KingOfDR |KingOfDR |HushRG |BirchST | |Shield |BlndedSH |BlndedML |BlndedML |BlndedML | |Armor |BlndedAR |SilverAR |OceanRB |BreathAR | |Helmet |CrmsnRB |MoonMask |RoyalHT |SokletAR | |Etc1 |IronBR |IronBR |IronBR |FastShoe | |Etc2 |IronBR |IronBR |IronBR |FastShoe | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |Magic heals it, and this DOES include item magic. SO, use dragon two times, | |then make sure to heal it (!!) with some weak magic (Cold from Nina is OK), | |then cast a 3rd dragon.

Look out for Typhoon though, it can heavily | |damage all of your characters, yet it isn't used too often. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| Continue further and do NOT take the teleporter when you have the choice. After that room, there will be two stairs. The left one nets two chests, the right one is the way to go on, but use a WFruit on Ryu and heal up before proceeding the steps south of the chests. |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Shupkay HP: 980 Herb | |Formation: Defense | |Movement: Shupkay (80), Katt (5x), Sten (42), Nina (27), Ryu (8) | |Surviver: Nina 9 -> 11 Total EXP: 2350 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Ryu Lv.10 |Sten Lv.12 |Katt Lv.12 |Nina Lv. 9 | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |--- |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |KingOfDR |KingOfDR |BirchST |HushRG | |Shield |BlndedSH |BlndedML |BlndedML |BlndedML | |Armor |BlndedAR |SilverAR |BreathAR |OceanRB | |Helmet |CrmsnRB |MoonMask |CrmsnRB |SokletAR | |Etc1 |IronBR |IronBR |IronBR |IronBR | |Etc2 |IronBR |IronBR |IronBR |IronBR | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |First, use a dragon power, then a puppy, then start wearing her off and | |killing your characters.

Note: Baretta got new goods now. Buy 3xNationHT Total: 5400 Coins it's not much, but it's ok. |-----------| |Mount Maori| |-----------| Items: MoonDrop: NorthWest entrance to mountains. ThornWP: First chest you come by. CureAl: Second chest you come by. FlameSD: After waterfall, chest in the opening. FlameSH: After waterfall, chest above the stairs, down south. MagmaAR: In second opening in cave after waterfall. HushRG: Fall down the waterfall. Enemies: !Meedid, !Venusfly, !Banbhand, !Ganga, !Atlas, Pollen, C.Sludge Recommended Party: Ryu, Sten, Katt, Spar Go get Gedd, then come back to get the mushroom. If you did get the items earlier, then it's just a quick rush-through (which is why I recommend Katt: high Vigor = higher chance to run. We won't stay too long, so Spar can do all the healing and we won't need many items). Eventually, you will reach the top of the mountains, where mushrooms bloom (can they bloom?). On the left side is a small island. On this island, take the far right mushroom. Once done, get the mirror and return to Tunlan. |-----------| |Queens Body| |-----------| Enemies: !Ryusight, !Pepshun, !Hemoglod, !Fatty Recommended Party: Sten, Bow, Spar, Ryu Note that the Fatty and Hemoglod run away, so they will not give you any EXP. Walk around and run from battles until you find one that has ONLY those two kind of enemies in it, then defend/heal until all of them run. Also, hope you do not counter them to death with Ryu. You may want to take him to the back row to lessen the chance of this. After you clear a fight, I'd suggest to go outside (use the mirror), save, rest if needed and come back. Better then having to walk around again after a sudden death or counter+EXP fight. After the queen is safed, get the Therapy Pillow. Transform Spar with help of the Water Shaman and enter a wooden dream. |-------| |InHeart| |-------| Enemies: !Rapider, !S.Idol, E.Sludge, C.Sludge, Ganga, Gonghead, V.Head, Sniphead, Mimic, D.Brnger The old shool town has a shop, where you should buy a DoubleWP Total: 8000 Coins for Spar. Other then that, there is nothing of matter, so proceed, but don't forget your D.Earings. |------------| |Memory Tower| |------------| Items: AutoBW: Get back to entrance by paying the old man a second time. EarthAR: Get back to entrance by paying the old man a second time. MisoSoup: Third floor, directly west of entrance. 1000C: Fifth floor, directly south of entrance. HeroBT: Fifth floor, directly north of entrance. BlndedML: Fifth floor, in the southern part around the center. Enemies: !Jacky, !P.Eater, !RoadSlug, Rapider, *Aruhamel Recommended Party: Ryu, Jean, Bow, Spar Dreaded sight, seriously. The encounter rate here is horribly high, and the enemies around here use Thunder and S.Boom so they can kill you rather quickly. Too bad there is barely a thing to do against it other then having luck. Note that the Old Man that escorts you for 100C will even escort you if you don't have the money, so it is no problem if you decided to put all your money to the bank. Proceed up, taking the chests and reach the top. If you die on the way, but got a chest, I'd suggest to keep it like that. It's nearly impossible not to die even with all the shortcuts. |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Aruhamel HP: 1600 LopOffWP, ElmoreSD | |Formation: Defense | |Movement: Aruhamel (100), Spar (28/21), Bow (20), Ryu (8), Jean (0) | |Surviver: Jean 10 -> 12 Total EXP: 3200 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Ryu Lv.10 |Bow Lv.10 |Spar Lv.12 |Jean Lv.10 | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |Sana |Seso |--- | | |--- |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |KingOfDR |FireBW |DoubleWP |PierceRP | |Shield |BlndedSH |BlndedML |BlndedML |BlndedSH | |Armor |BlndedAR |SilverAR |OceanRB |BlndedAR | |Helmet |NationHT |NationHT |CrmsnRB |SokletAR | |Etc1 |IronBR |IronBR |IronBR |IronBR | |Etc2 |D.Earing |D.Earing |D.Earing |D.Earing | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |He can make you forget your spells, knows SwtBrth and can cure himself.

So buy: IceBW, ThndrRP, 5xSokletAR Total: 36200 Coins Finally some more SokletAR's and no more need to switch the one you had around. Anyway, continue down the tower for a bit to grab the treasures, then go out to save again (if you didn't die after taking the chests, that is. With that running, your breath can run LOW...). After this, continue up. On the 4th and 5th floors, there are shortcuts if you pass by the far south. Continue another floor and get Spoor. Woot, new shaman! Leave the tower, head back to TownShip.

Over there, make sure to donate at least 20 times (2000 Coins) so you get the Earth Shaman later, then continue with the story. Before going for the next fight, however, I highly advice you to go back to TownShip. Go hunt and kill Grizzlys for a total of four SprRib's, then cook those to a PanPizza. After yu got that and six ShaveIce, shamanize Rand with Seso and Spoo, then continue. |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Paladin HP: 496 WFruit, WiseBL | |Formation: Normal | |Movement: Paladin (77), Rand (22/18) | |Surviver: Rand 11 -> 12 Total EXP: 1000 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Rand Lv.11 |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |Seso |--- |--- |--- | | |Spoo |--- |--- |--- | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |CloakKN |--- |--- |--- | |Shield |MedusaSH |--- |--- |--- | |Armor |SpiritRB |--- |--- |--- | |Helmet |BronzeHT |--- |--- |--- | |Etc1 |IronBR |--- |--- |--- | |Etc2 |IronBR |--- |--- |--- | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |He may usually be hard, but with our PanPizza, he is pushover!

Baretta got new Items: ThndrST Total: 7800 Coins Also, talk to Nina in her room (3rd floor, far right), then get back up to Windia.

Get out by the stairway after looting (it is to the south), then save again. You can get back in this way afterwards, so no worry about having to walk to the top again. North at four way intersection is a chest, west is a chest and the way to go on. In the room with moving platform, the platform has 9 switches. Number them 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Then 1 and 8 will make it move down, 2 5 and 7 right, 3 and 6 left and 4 and 9 up.

Now it's time to get back to the very beginning... |----| |Gate| |----| Enemies: *Habaruku Recommended Party: Ryu, Sten, Rand, Spar Go get Shin. Note that you should use your Town to fly here as you will loose the Bird when continuing the story.

BusterBW: 2nd floor, right side, needs Sten to pass there. NatureWP: 2nd floor, left side, past the stairs. ShinyHT: 2nd floor, in the side room. Stamina: 3rd floor, northeast. PwrFood: 3rd floor, near stairs down. HeroAR: 4th floor, north of stairs. MotherRB: 4th floor, north of stairs. CrsntSD: 4th floor, from north chests, continue west. HolySH: 11th floor, south from start. SunMask: 11th floor, south from start, further then HolySH. ImortlRG: 11th floor, east from start, then a bit north. ShadowDR: 11th floor, south of ImortlRG DreamBR: 11th floot, along the way. FinalKN: 11th floor, along the way further on. Enemies: !Humus, !G.Rider, !Dadelous, !Racegude, !BigHand, Ganet, -E.Dragon, -Ifeleet Recommended Party: Ryu, Sten, Bow, Nina I'd say, get chests until 4th floor, then go out, save again and afterwards continue downwards. Anyway, best way to go for all chests: At start, go right, then down the stairs, use Sten to pass by the poles. Next floor, get the chest by passing with Sten again, then pass the doorway and get another chest. backtrack and use the stairway south. Now get north to grab a chest, then back up the stairs and through the doorway, get yet another chest and use the stairs in there, continuing south and around. Before going down to the next floor, go around the floor again and grab the chest, then down. On the 4th floor, go north, grab 2 chests, continue west and around the room and get the last chest of the early floors. It's maybe a good idea to go back out if you don't have many more items, else continue for now. The next floors are repeating, so just continue. On the next new floor, if you go south from start you will find 2 chests, the east way is the further one. There, grab 2 chests along the way, and when at the next junction, east is the only way to go. Grab another 2 chest on your way, then go south and to Dologany. Alternatively, after grabbing the floor 4 chests, just go straight to Dologany and go back up for the floor 11 chests after saving. |-----------------| |Infinity - Part 2| |-----------------| Items: Noe'sRB: 2nd floor, west junction after Anfini room. RiotST: 3rd floor, west in 2nd room. HolyRP: 4th floor (north), south of entrance. DragonSH: 5th floor (north), follow pathway north of teleport. DragonAR: 6th floor (north), north of teleport tile. DragonSD: 7th floor (north), by taking ladder from 6th floor. DragonHT: 4th floor (south), east of entrance ladder. HolySH: 5th floor (south), you can see it from the entrance. LifeBR: After Barubary, in secret passage to the east. KingHT: After final save point, southwest. Enemies: !Dragoon, !Skeleton, !Carm, !Conch, !Magicmas, !DPaladin, !Amom Ganet, E.Sludge, -Cyclops, -Ifeleet, -Hellion, -Zodiac, -P.Dragon, *Barubary, *DeathEvn Recommended Party: Ryu, Sten, Bow, Nina First of all, get all treasures pre-Barubary. To do so, first go west at the only junction at level 2 for a chest, then take the east junction to proceed. On the 3rd floor, go to the second room and west to grab a chest, then east and through the doorway to find a ladder going to 4th floor. Note that this is the north exit. If you skip the doorway and go further south, you will find the south exit of the 4th floor. On 4th floor, first aim south for a chest (in a seperate room), then go back and further west to find the stairs to the next floor. Here, the door above the teleport tile leads to the stairs. However, follow the path around for this floors chest first, then proceed. Note that you should skip floor 5, 6 and 7 chests first and go save at the pre-Barubary Dragon Statue, then get one by one. It's much safer that way. Now approaching 6th floor. From start, a bit west is a teleport tile and north of it this floors chest. The tile leads you directly to Barubary. After getting the chest, go south from teleport tile and take the ladder down to 7th floor to find the last chest on this side. After saving downstairs, take the teleport tile to Barubary, but continue east and go up again. Next floor, take a turn left and another floor up, where you will find another chest. On the next floor, the way up is in plain sight, but continue east for the last chest first. Also note that the tile to the lower left of the chest is a trap! so approach it not using that tile or you will have to walk further. Make your way up to Dologany again or simply cast Exit, then go get Anfini. If you don't have Exit, you should go outside first, safe at Gate, then get Anfini without safing. That way, you can simply die and re-shamanize. Now, go back up to the surface. You will need to get some more MoonDrops to finish the game. "How do I get more?", you may ask. There is a little trick not too well known to get infinite of them. Go to ThvsTomb. Now walk on orange, smiling faces and you will have a chance after battle to find a MoonDrop. It's not fast, but works nicely. Get 10-15 MoonDrops now. Next get around 15 Biscuits and a bunch of WiseBL (Stamina (F.Spice + 2 Tuna) + 2 Tuna). Also, for completeness of enemies, you should go fight at Enemies (N.Rider Isle): !N.Rider, D.Brnger, -Cyclops Enemies (Monster Island): !K.Sludge, -Chorking, -Gonghead, -A.Sludge Your Inventory should look like this: 01) 9xHelpBL 9xHelpBL 02) 9xHelpBL 9xHelpBL 03) 9xLifePI 9xLifePI 04) 9xLifePI 9xWiseBL 05) 9xWiseBL 9xSmoke 06) MoonDrop MoonDrop 07) MoonDrop MoonDrop 08) MoonDrop MoonDrop 09) MoonDrop MoonDrop 10) MoonDrop MoonDrop 11) MoonDrop MoonDrop 12) MoonDrop MoonDrop 13) MoonDrop Biscuit 14) Biscuit Biscuit 15) Biscuit Biscuit 16) Biscuit Biscuit 17) Biscuit Biscuit 18) Biscuit Biscuit 19) Biscuit Biscuit 20) Biscuit Biscuit 21) PanPizza PanPizza 22) PanPizza PanPizza 23) HolySF EmpireSD 24) KingOfDR LifeAR Also, take your money to be able to restock at Dologany if needed (just reset if you die, you got all the treasures already anyway). Now, from Dologany, make your way back to the lower level Dragon Statue to have a nearby save. It's time to meet our nightmare. |-------------------------------- Boss Battle --------------------------------| |Name: Barubary HP: 5000 SacredSH, ArmyGL | |Formation: Defense | |Movement: Katt (92), Barubary (90), Ryu (44/19/14), Spar (27/19), | | Rand (28/18) | |Surviver: Rand 12 -> 13 Total EXP: 4000 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Katt Lv.12 |Ryu Lv.13 |Spar Lv.13 |Rand Lv.12 | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |--- |Seso |Sana | | |--- |--- |Shin |Solo | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |RiotST |DragonSD |NatureWP |KaiserKN | |Shield |HolySH |MedusaSH |HolySH |MedusaSH | |Armor |WindRB |DragonAR |MotherRB |SpiritRB | |Helmet |SunMask |DragonHT |SunMask |BronzeHT | |Etc1 |FastShoe |IronBR |IronBR |IronBR | |Etc2 |FastShoe |IronBR |IronBR |IronBR | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |The hardest fight this game features. With the right strategy, you got a | |little chance to win, though don't expect it coming your way too soon. You | |will easily need a few hours for this to work. BoltX is instant loss once it | |is cast, so you hopefully are lucky. Anyway, here is what to do: | |First fight with Barubary, Katt starts with a Biscuit, Spar MoonDrop, Rand | |WiseBL on Ryu and Ryu G.Dragon. Next turn, equip Ryu with LifeAR and KingOfDR| |before any actions. Katt goes defend, Ryu G.Dragon, Spar MoonDrop and Rand | |defend as well. The fight will end after G.Dragon is cast. After re-combat, | |as Katt is faster then Barubary, have her use a Biscuit again. Your AP is | |down, so have Ryu WiseBL himself, but only after Re-equipping DragonSD and | |LifeAR, or, if Rand and Spar still got shamans, DragonAR. Rand MoonDrop and | |Spar Pwr.Down on Barubary. From now on, have Rand MoonDrop and Spar WiseBL on| |Ryu, while Ryu goes for constant G.Dragon and Katt uses a PanPizza every turn| |until it connects to drop Barubarys attack as he some times will be able to | |kill our other characters. If that happens, MoonDrop them up straight away | |and hope PanPizza connects early. Other then that, always have one character | |use MoonDrop and another WiseBL on Ryu. Note that Spar and Rand will become | |much slower once de-shamanized, and Ryu should equip the LifeAR once that | |happened. Ryu also should use G.Dragon whenever possible, and Katt PanPizza | |until it connects, after that just defend or KingOfDR on Rand, something you | |see fit, just don't attack or this strategy won't work. After G.Dragon hit | |Barubary 4 times, the round you cast 5th, don't use MoonDrop. Instead, LifePI| |Rand with Spar, Rand HelpBL, Ryu cast the 5th G.Dragon and Katt whatever. Now| |if stuff worked out, all but Rand should be dead next turn, with Rand | |finishing with a use of EmpireSD. If they don't die due to some tough luck...| |well, shit happens :) seems PanPizza was too much for you. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| Now, save, get the other chests, save again. If you still have a few Biscuits (~5), you can go on now, else you should leave and make a few more, then come back. Though, the final battle is easier then you would expect. Once you are ready, it's time to kill a false god |------------------------------- Final Battle -------------------------------| |Name: DeathEvn HP: 10000 | |Formation: Defense | |Movement: DeathEvn (138), Ryu (44/19), Nina (45/34) | | Rand (29/19), Spar (27/19) | |Surviver: - | |Total EXP: - | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |Ryu Lv.13 |Nina Lv.12 |Spar Lv.13 |Rand Lv.13 | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Bond |--- |Spoo |Seso |Sana | | |--- |Seny |Shin |Solo | |---------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |Weapon |DragonSD |ImortlRG |NatureWP |KaiserKN | |Shield |MedusaSH |HolySH |HolySH |MedusaSH | |Armor |DragonAR |MotherRB |MotherRB |SpiritRB | |Helmet |DragonHT |SunMask |SunMask |BronzeHT | |Etc1 |IronBR |IronBR |IronBR |IronBR | |Etc2 |LifeBR |IronBR |IronBR |IronBR | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |Basically, same strategy as Barubary, but not half as deadly, just more HP. | |He cannot kill you (unless Death comes in) until he goes below 4000HP, which | |is when he starts BoneLzr, which can kill everyone but Rand. This is mind, | |have Rand MoonDrop every turn after that point. If you don't have enough, | |just use Biscuits and LifePI. He usually won't be able to wipe you out even | |with that. | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| Congratulations, you finished the game at an average Level of 12.375!
