Final Fantasy Mystic Quest Walkthrough Version 1.0 by Jason Wade Cato ---------- ---------- ---------- Stuff you need to know when reading this 1. The numbers after the place name indicate the level(s) I was on when I reached that particular area. Likewise, the numbers that appear after the "Boss" indication on a particular floor or dungeon indicate the level I was on before I attacked the boss. 2. I change the second character's setting to "Manual", because he/she does unthinkable things if you let the computer have control. 3. There are rarely any mention of monsters in this walkthrough, because I usually wiped out everything and then made up some directions. ---------- Walkthrough ---------- ----Hill of Destiny (1) Here you meet the weird cloud guy, defeat a Behemoth (this sometimes takes a while if he uses a critical attack), and leave to start your quest. ----Level Forest (1) Talk to the weird cloud guy, and then to the old man. Jump over him and move the rock. The old man will thank you and give you the Tree Wither. Exit through the right. ----Foresta (1) Talk to people. Go to the upper right section of the town, and jump across the flowers and enter the tree stump to get the Cure spell. The stump directly south has a bed which will be your sole source of complete healing for a while. The last stump is Kaeli's house. Go in and talk to Kaeli and show her the Tree Wither. She'll grab her axe and join you. Leave and head to the Level Forest. ----Level Forest (1,3) Boss (3,3) Kaeli will chop down a single tree so you can access the central area. Kill, pillage and destroy monsters until you find a red tree. Kaeli whacks it, revealing a Minotaur. He poisons Kaeli, then attacks you. - Minotaur Just kill him with conventional attacks, or the Life spell for an easy win. Kaeli's mom will come to take Kaeli home, but before she does, Kaeli gives you her Axe. Now that you have the Axe, get to the previously blocked chests to get some Heal Potions, of which you will soon need plenty. Head north to the Sand Temple to get the Elixir to cure Kaeli. ----Sand Temple (3) Bypass the first Battlefield en route. Go in and find the red treasure chest. Open it to find it's empty. At this point, Tristam comes in and offers you the Elixir in exchange for your companionship on a treasure hunt. ----Battlefield north of Level Forest (3,7) Mostly Mad Plants. Put a book on the A button and grab a quick snack. Win: 54 EXP ----Battlefield west of Sand Temple (4,7) Mostly Poison Toads, Basilisks and Mad Plants. Win: Charm ----Bone Dungeon (6,7) --1F Fight your way around the left or right, or go straight up and jump the treasure box. Remember that you'll need to eventually clear a path. The best time IS now, plus you'll get 20 Ninja Stars. --B1 Jump across the turtle shells, go right, then down to the water. Go left through the bones, then up to a blocked door. Tristam blows it open, then offers to sell you 50 Bombs for 30 GP. Say no and he'll cut his price in half. Go back to the right side to where you jumped. To the north is a group of bones. Plant a bomb there, go through, and collect a Stell Shield. Go through the door Tristam blasted. Continue on until you come to some stairs to the left. Go down. --B2 Go right to get some bombs. Go up until you reach another bone skeleton. Bomb it. To the right is a secret passage with Ninja Stars. Go back to the left, then up and to the right to a place with moving sand. Kill both monsters, then go up to the cracked skeleton. Go right, then down. Be sure not to step on the moving sand. Now, go up to a skeleton head with closed teeth, and bomb it. Go all the way up to get some seeds. Go back down, then go left. Repeat previous moving sand procedure. In the next bone tunnel, go all the way up to get the Quake Spell. Go back, then right, Go through the final bone tunnel --B2 Boss (8,7) Before jumping across the shell, cure yourself completely and use a Seed on the hero if his magic is not full. Attack the Flamerus Rex. - Flamerus Rex Have the hero use Quake or Cure magic on him until he falls down; have Tristam continually fight. Cure yourself when necessary (a good measure is when two of the enemy's regular attacks can kill). When Flamerus falls down, he'll continually use Rip Earth. Have the Hero cure the both of you and Tristam should attack. 400 more HP of damage and he's toast. After winning, you'll see the Crystal of Earth restored. Tristam will give you the Elixir. Be sure to get the Sand Coin to the right. Jump back across and Tristam will leave you. Leave the Bone Dungeon and head for Kaeli's. ----Foresta (8) Go to Kaeli's House and find her sick in the back bedroom. Talk to her, give her the Elixir, and she'll be cured. She'll direct you to go to Aquaria via the Focus Tower. ----Focus Tower (8) Bypass the Battlefield en route to the Focus Tower. Go up 9 steps, then go left through the wall. Talk to the weird cloud guy, who'll tell you to find Phoebe. Go through the nearby doorway. --1F Open the chest, then go to the yellow dorr. It'll open. Go through and enter the door at the top. --2F Go left, then down to a chest with the Fire Spell. Go back and go through the door at the top. ----Libra Temple (8) Bypass the Battlefield en route to the Libra Temple. Talk to the girl within. It will turn out that she's Phoebe. She'll join you. Now head east to Aquaria. ----Aquaria (8,15) Bypass the two Battlefields on the way here. Go left to the open house, which is Phoebe's. She'll tell you to go to the Wintry Cave to obtain the Libra Crest. Collect the Heal Potions and leave. Go to the central island, and take the left-hand bridge. Enter the house you find along the way. The lady inside will sell you her Stell Helm. Buy it, then leave Aquaria. Start clearing out those Battlefields. ----Battlefield east of Sand Temple (8,15) Extremely random enemies. Win: 150 GP ----Battlefield east of Focus Tower (8,15) Only Mintmints. Switch to Bombs, then just attack. Win: 99 EXP ----Battlefield east of Libra Temple (9,15) Mintmints and Giant Toads. Just hack 'em to death. Win: 300 GP ----Battlefield south of Aquaria (9,15) Mintmints, Giant Toads and Scorpions. Fire magic and bombs work well. Win: Magic Ring ----Battlefield south of Wintry Cave (10, 15) Giant Toads, Edgehogs and Scorpions. Repeat the above. Win: 99 EXP ----Wintry Cave (11, 15) Note: Be frugal with your magic in this cave, because you'll need it more against the boss. --1F To the left of the entrance are some Bombs. Go right, then up along the wall, then to the left and down to a place where you fall (you can't stop it from happening). Phoebe will now give you the CatClaw. Use it to climb back up the wall to the point where you fell (at this point, I will be referring to these places where you can climb the wall as "claw ladders"). Continue left from there, then up. The blocked door leads to the upper deck of the boss's room. Get the treasure within and leave. Go right to get another treasure box, then go back left. Scale the wall, go left and land on the ledge with the Edgehog. Go down and to the left, then up to another wall with a claw ladder. Go down the wall, go down more and kill the Edgehog. Now go left, scale all the way up the wall, and blow open the blocked door. Go in. --2F Go up, then right to where the path splits. Downward is some treasure, up is the way out. --3F Boss (13,15) This is the bosses' room. Be sure you're fully healed before you approach. Don't use a Seed unless you REALLY need to. - Squidite Have Phoebe take out the two Sparnas with her Bow. The Hero should just attack for now. When the Sparnas die, have the Hero cure damage when necessary, or fight if you're healthy. Phoebe should use Thunder Magic. He'll go quickly. Take the Libra Crest and leave for the Libra Temple. ----Libra Temple/Life Temple (13,15) Go onto the Libra tile and warp to the Life Temple. You'll notice there's no more Wakewater. Go up through the door to find the weird cloud guy. He'll give you all that's left of the Wakewater. Now head to Aquaria. ----Aquaria (13,15) You'll automatically walk to the central island fern upon entering. Phoebe will use the Wakewater, which will miraculously revive...the fern. Now you can buy Cure potion from the man in the Inn. Rest there now to restore your magic. Now, head for the Falls Basin ----Battlefield west of Wintry Cave (13,15) Mostly Desert Hags. Fire does wonders. Win: 600 GP ----Falls Basin (14,15) Boss (15,15) Push the ice block 9 spaces up, 7 left and one more up. Go through the Ice passageway and jump across the large gap to the left using the ice block you just moved. Go down, kill two monsters, and reach another Ice block. Move it 4 spaces right and 2 up. Go back to the left, up the small stairs and go right, jumping across the ice block. Kill the Lamia you find. Push this block three spaces to the left. Go back to the block you just jumped on and move it 2 spaces up and 11 to the right. Go back to the left, then down to the right, past the last ice block, up the small stairs and jump across THIS ice block. Go up, through another icy passageway. Upon exiting, you'll see a place where you should jump to the left. Push the ice block you had stranded near the entrance 1 space left, 1 up, 2 left, 11 up, 4 right and 2 more up. Go back on the ledge and jump across this ice block. Cure yourself before you go against this boss. - Snow Crab Use Fire. On everything. After the Desert Hags die, have the Hero cure or use Fire, and have Phoebe use Thunder, or Fire if she runs out of Wizard Magic. After he dies, get the Heal Spell from the red chest. Phoebe will teach you how to use Jumbo Bombs before you leave here. ----Battlefield north of Falls Basin (15,15) Lamias, Desert Hags and Mages lurk here. Fire and Bombs work nicely. Win: 540 EXP ----Ice Pyramid (15,15) Note: Again, be frugal with your magic, because there's a LOT of enemies here. --1F Upon entering, walk to the blue statue and poke it with your sword. Go through the door, go right, down, and right until you find the last possible place where you can go up. Go up, then go right, and you'll have to face two invisible monsters before you get the Magic Mirror, which lets you see the rest of the enemies. Now, for the sake of brevity, I'll just use the following doors to lead you. All of these doors lead to floor 2F. a) Stairs located to the right of the enclosed place with 6 blue statues: leads to a room with 10 arrows. b) Stairs located to the right of the same place: leads to a room with 3 Heal potions. c) Westside stairs: leads to a lot of enemies and several treasure boxes d) Northside stairs: leads to a single chest e) Eastside stairs: this door will let you go on. --3F First go right. This path lets you access a blue statue to open another door within the room. Now take the left path. The first open door takes you to a room with Arrows and Bombs. Go further, through the door you opened, and then left. Go up the stairs. --4F Take a left, then go down and up the stairs, which will take you up to 5F. From there, go left, collect the chests, then press up until you fall. You should be in the middle part of floor 4F. Kill an enemy on each side, left and right to get the red chest holding the Noble Armor and the way out. Go back up the stairs to 5F --5F This time, do NOT fall off the edge. Go right, then around the loops until you get to the center of the room. To the left and up are chests. After retrieving them, go back to the center and put a bomb on the discolored crack. Fall down the hole it leaves. Continue to fall until you reach the room with the 6 blue statues on floor 1F. Poke any of them, then fall. --B1 Try to move, and you'll be attacked, so move down. Kill the Lamia and collect your Knight Sword and the other treasure. Equip the claw, climb up to where the big ice thing is, and chat. Now, go to the lower right corner, go down the stairs to go beneath the floor. Put bombs in front of the two door-like things to make them disappear. Blast the one on the left side too, then enter the real door. Equip the claw and go up. --5F Boss (16,15) Poke the blue statue to gain access to the other chests. Fall off the edge to get them, but they're hardly worth it. Go in the door and engage the boss. Don't hesitate to use your remaining seeds now. - Ice Golem He's Ice. Use Fire. He'll melt. Cure if you must, but don't worry too much. He's a cinch. The Crystal of Water now shines. Phoebe leaves for Aquaria. Collect the contents of the red chest and do the same. ----Aquaria/Spencer's Place (16) Take the stairs into the water upon entry. Go through either opening under Phoebe's house to get to Spencer's Place. Once in, just follow the paths until you find Spencer. He'll tell you about Captain Mac's ship and the Venus Shield. Before you leave, he'll give you the Venus Key and tell you to head to Fireburg. ----Focus Tower (16) Access the Focus Tower by going north at the Libra Temple. Skip all Battlefields for the time being. Go downstairs at the first opportunity. --2F Talk to the weird cloud guy. He'll tell you to look for Reuben and points to the statue. Blast to door and get the Venus Shield. Push the statue two spaces left, 5 down, and 5 more left. Continue left to get the Blizzard Spell. Exit the Tower and re-enter using the other entrance. Go downstairs. --1F Go back to the left, through the yellow door and open the blue one. Go upstairs, then down. Jump across the statue you moved, then go left and up the stairs you find there. On floor 3F, exit the Tower. ----Fireburg (16) You'll need to skip three Battlefields before getting here. You'll find Tristam in the Hotel. The guy in the right-hand ticket booth sells seeds. Buy about 20 now, and more whenever you have an excess of fundage. The house next-door belongs to Reuben. Talk to him and he'll join you. Now go down the claw ladder in front of the Hotel. The house there is locked. Now, talk to Tristam in the Hotel. He'll give you the Multi-Key. Go back to the locked house and enter. Arion's friend will teach you about Mega Grenades and tell you to go to the Mine. The final house in the town has a lady who'll sell you a Battle Axe. Buy it, then leave town after getting any other supplies you may need. ----Battlefield north of Libra Temple (16,23) Mostly Phanquids and Sphinxes. Just hold down A. Win: Exit Spell ----Battlefield north of Wintry Temple (17,23) Mostly Freezer Crabs and Gathers. Just hold down A again.

Win: Thunder Spell ----Mine (19,23) Boss (20,23) Now that you have access to all the seeds you'll ever need, you can be much less frugal with your magic. Anyway, this stage is pretty straight forward. The only item you must get is the Charm Claw. To get it, from the start go up, then right, then down to a place with two Red Bones. The blocked door holds the Charm Claw. The place you need to go to is at the far right, and is guarded by a boss. - Jinn First get those Red Bones out of the way. Now just have Reuben attack every turn or use Life when one of your HP levels get low. Have the Hero use Thunder whenever possible, or use Mega Grenades. Cure when necessary. After his demise, go in the door and go right to the edge where you see a large boulder and Arion, Reuben's dad. Reuben will throw a Mega Grenade to move the boulder and Arion will leave to Fireburg. Do the same, but make a stop elsewhere first. ----Sealed Temple (20,23) Here there is a Gemini tile that will warp you to the blocked off room in the Wintry Temple. The weird cloud guy is also here, and gives you a clue (kind of). Now go to Fireburg. ----Fireburg (20,23) Go to Reuben's House and talk to Arion. He'll tell you to go to the Lava Dome. Heal yourself, get more Seeds, and go there. ----Battlefield west of Volcano (20, 23) Red Bones, Zombies and Ghosts dwell here. Mega Grenades and the Cure spell will do the trick. Win: 1200 EXP ----Volcano (20,23) Boss (22, 23) First head right, then up. Go through the door on the left and work your way left to the red chest with the White Spell within. This spell will now become your new best friend. Get the rest of the junk on this right side, and go up the stairs to the foggy level. Collect the chest that you can get to and go back to the beginning of the stage. This time, go left, then up, jump across a small gap to the right, and go up the stairs. On this foggy level, go left and follow that path to obtain the Mask. Go right to get to the boss. - Medusa Get rid of her flunkies first, then go to work on her. Have the Hero cast White whenever possible and have Reuben attack or use Life on whomever needs curing or healing. After she dies, take the stairs to exit the level. ----Lava Dome (22,23) At the start, go right and down the stairs there, then down the next set of stairs to the right. Go into the door to the left. Go up a bit, and you'll see a red chest on the right. Go that way. When you find the rock blocking your path, throw a Mega Grenade at it. Collect the Life Spell. Go back to teh left, and up to the next level using the Claw. To the upper left is a path leading to bombs, the lower left is the way out. Note that you can jump over the gold blocks. When you exit the room, you'll be on a small ledge. Use the Claw to lower yourself down, then drop. This brings you back to the door you had previously entered. Now, drop down one more level using the Claw. Go left, then up. Go up the stairs here, then go left. The stairs along the way lead to the entrance and to a small treasure room with bombs. Continue left to a door. Go in. Inside, go up, to the right where there's a lot of monsters surrounding three treasure boxes. Continue right, then down along that pathway leading to some exit stairs. Go down, then along this pathway until you reach an exit. Here there is a switch that will open the large doors to the Boss Chamber. Hit it, then retrace your steps to the three treasure boxes surrounded by monsters. Here, go to the upper left corner and start jumping across the tiles floating in the lava. Again, Mega Grenade the rock. Go up the stairs in the upper left corner. This path leads directly to the Moon Helm. Now, retrace your steps back to the three chests, only this time exit the room. Upon exiting, drop down to the next ledge using the Claw, and go down the stairs. You should now be able to see the switch you just pushed. Go right, down the stairs to a chest, then back up and through the door to the left. Follow the path through the first room. In the second room, go up to get some treasure, then come back down and go left. Make your way to the small set of stairs and go up to the next elevation. Go left to get some Heal potions, then go right and down until you find a break in the wall. Jump across the gap here. Go up to exit the room. The next room has a lot of monsters, but is easy to go through. Now, go up with the Claw to kill a single monster if you care to, or go left, up the stairs, and in the door. Once inside, go down the big stairway, and into the next room. In the next room go down the small stairs to the right, then as far dwon as you can go along the right side. Go up these small stairs, jump across a gap to the left and go down. This door leads you to a treasure trove. Collect everything and leave (including the chest outside). Back in the previous room, go up, jump to the right, up some more, jump right, up still more, then go right and down the stairs. Continue down, then right and up those stairs. Now go right, down, jump left across a gap, continue left, down, jump right, and down the stairs. Use the exit. --Boss Chamber Boss (25,23) Once outside, go right and you'll be at the big doors.

There's Cure potions to the leftand up, then go right to get to the Boss. Be sure to cure yourself completely before you attack. - Dualhead Hydra Have the Hero use White whenever possible. Reuben should use Life on whomever need curing, or else he should feed Seeds to the Hero. He's not too hard. After he dies, you'll see the Crystal of Fire be restored. Reuben mentions another crystal in Windia, to the southeast of the Focus Tower. You'll see the Volcano erupt and spew lava over some of the eastern mountains. After that's done with, collect the contents of the red chest and jump to the right. Continue along this path until you have exited the Lava Dome. ----Battlefield east of Volcano (25,23) Iflytes and Sthenos here. VERY dangerous. Use the most powerful attacks you have. Win: 1068 EXP ----Focus Tower (26,23) Enter via the lower level Aquarian entrance. Go down the stairs. --1F Go down through the yellow door and go to the purple door. Open it, then talk to the weird cloud guy, who'll tell you to go to Windia. Go down the nearby stairs --B1/Doom Castle Follow this path, which leads into level B2 of Doom Castle. You get to fight a semi-advanced monster here. Kill it, collect the Aero Spell from the red chest, and go back to level 1F. Now, go down and exit the Focus Tower. ----Rope Bridge (26,23) Start walking across, and a monster will appear. Reuben boldly confronts him, and then is boldly thrown off the bridge. Kill the monster, and you'll try to get to Reuben, who is now trapped on a ledge. He'll tell you to go on. Do so, but you'll be stopped by Tristam, who'll join you again. Exit the stage by going to the right, but keep an eye out for some treasure chests at the bottom of vines. ----Alive Forest (26,23) Chop down trees like mad when you get in. You can find a Mobius tile and a Libra Tile in here, both of wich get you to the treasure rooms that look like trees with the tile atop them.

Go up a ways and to the right until you find a giant tree with a face. Talk to it, but it will not respond. Tristam suggests you find Kaeli, whereupon the hero claims she has traveled to Aquaria. Exit and go there. ----Aquaria (26,23) Go to Phoebe's house upon arrival. You'll find Kaeli in bed and Phoebe tending to her. Phoebe will tell you to go see Spencer. Now head to Spencer's Place. When you talk to Spencer, he and Tristam will start talking about treasure hunting, and they'll bolt, but first, Tristam will give you the Dragon Claw. Phoebe comes down, puts a bomb somewhere, and caves in Spencer's Place. SHE leaves, telling you to take care of Kaeli. Go back to Phoebe's house and talk to Kaeli. She joins. Go back to the Alive Forest. ----Alive Forest (26,31) Talk to the Giant Tree again. With Kaeli in your party, he's a bit more cooperative, and tells you to kill the monsters within him to gain passage to Windia. ----Giant Tree (26,31) --1F There's a claw ladder in the upper-right area of the room. Go up there. The Y-shaped sticks can be grabbed with the Dragon Claw and will haul you across larger gaps. Make your way to the northern door. --2F From the entrance, take a path downward and to the right to get the Meteor spell, however you'll need to go through a room filled with mushrooms to get there, which can be whacked with the Axe.

You should find yourself right above the left-most door of the previous three. Go up, right, and then down to a place near a Y-shaped stick. Cross the gap downward for some treasure chests, then go back up, and go up the claw ladder. Go through the door. --5F Boss (30,31) Turn right or left and go up from there. The boss is nearby. - Gidrah Use Meteor and Aero the whole time. Remember to cure if needed. After his death, talk to the closed door. The Giant Tree will thank you and will carry you for a ways.

The boss is just ahead (actually, he DOESN'T have a head, but he's near). - Dullahan Both of you use Aero the first round to kill the Vampires. Now, use Meteor while Kaeli uses Aero or cures. He likes instant death spells, so be careful. After he dies, use Exit. ----Windia (32,31) The wind has stopped now. The old woman walking around north of the Inn will sell you seeds. Talk to Otto again. He powers up the Rainbow Road and gives you a clue about the elevator switches.

Be prepared! - Pazuzu Use mostly Flare and Aero against him, but stop all magic attacks and fight with weapons when his Psychshield is up (after about three or four rounds of attack). You'll need to cure a bit more often against him. Keep at it and you'll prevail. When he dies, you'll go all the way up the elevator to level 7F. Watch the Crystal of Wind shine again. Collect the Sky Coin and cast Exit. ----Windia (34,31) Go talk to Otto about Captain Mac. When you do, Reuben comes in and claims he saw a stairway to the top of the Focus Tower. Otto tells you to set off a bomb in Spencer's Place to release water to fill up the dry lake and tells you to get the Thunder Rock from Fireburg. Kaeli leaves you to take care of Norma, and Reuben joins. Go to Fireburg now. ----Fireburg (34,31) Go to Reuben's house and talk to Arion. He'll give you the Thunder Tock. Take it back to Windia. ----Windia (34,31) Go talk to Otto again. He'll go power up the Rainbow Road so you can go to Spencer's Place. Go there now by way of Pazuzu's Tower. ----Spencer's Place (34,31) Reuben throws a Mega Grenade to the left upon entry, filling up the lake and freeing Mac's Ship. However, the Mobius Crest is in here, so don't leave just yet. Take the land path all the way up and to the left. Go down a small claw ladder, then go left and up along the waterway until you see another claw ladder. Go up on land again and throw a Mega Grenade at the blocked door. Go back to the entrance, only this time jump across the stone tile to the left. Blow away this blocked door, go in and warp using the Libra Tile. Now, go through the door and make your way left, through the door you previously blasted, and collect the Mobius Crest. Step on the tile to warp you back to the entrance, and leave. ----Windia (34,31) Go to Otto's house and talk to Kaeli, who's tending to Norma at the moment. She'll give you the Captain Cap to show to Mac when you find him. Exit Otto's house and go to the house near the old woman who sells seeds. Go down the stairs within and step on the Mobius tile to warp to the Ship Dock. Board the ship by pressing A while in front of it. ----Mac's Ship (34,31) If you're at the level shown, you're already in excellent shape for the end of the game. If not, take the stairs near the entrance and fight around down there for a while, picking up some spare items along the way. When you feel your level is good enough, go to the steering wheel in the center of the ship. From here, go up, to the right, and left. Push the barrel down far enough so you can access this inner room. Climb up the post up to where it's crossed by another. Here, hand a right, then start up the rope. Now go left and down. Go down the stairs in the upper left section of the room. Go down the next set as well. --B2 Just go downstairs, then up the stairs. Keep going down and taking stairs until you hit floor B1 for the third time. --B1 Get the Gaia's Armor from the red chest. Now go down and talk to Mac. He'll notice you have the Captain Cap. Here's where Kaeli comes down and starts worrying. Reuben also falls due to his previous injury. You'll leave the ship now. You'll meet Spencer and Tristam on your way out. Spencer mentions Phoebe's waiting to see you in Windia. Go there now. ----Windia (35,31) Go to the Inn. Phoebe's waiting at the table near the door. She sends Reuben to bed and joins you herself. Now go upstairs and talk to Mac. He tells you that you still must beat the Dark King atop the Focus Tower and to go there using his ship. Do so. ----------Final Stage Warning This message is followed by complete instructions on defeating the last stage of the game. If you wish to continue, do so, but you'll have a guilty feeling for the rest of your natural life that you had to rely on a walkthrough to help you complete the easiest RPG ever created. I'll read on, you say...? You're sure about this...? Don't say I didn't warn you... ----Doom Castle (35,34) You'll enter Doom Castle by going into the Focus Tower from Mac's Ship. --B2 Boss (35,34) Go left from the entrance, then up quite a bit. Soon you'll see many staircases going down. Take the very last one first. You should slide across the sand until you hit some bones. Use the Dragon Claw to pull yourself to the stairs to the right. Now go up. Cross both of the gaps to the left, then go down the claw ladder. When you come to rest against the bones, go right one space. Collect the contents of the chest, then go left one space. Throw a Mega Grenade at the bones to the left, then use the Dragon Claw to get to the stairs. Fight the boss above. - Skullrus Rex Just use Flare and White. You shouldn't even need to cure during the battle. DO cure after the battle, 'cause it ain't over yet! Go up through the door. --B1 Focus Tower Circle around and take the other stairs going up. When you hit floor 1F, open the green door and proceed. ----Doom Castle Now the real fun starts! You get to go through three more areas reminicient of the old dungeon. Head for the first. --4F Boss (36, 34) Poke the blue statue with your sword, then go through the door. Go left and down until you can jump left. Poke the statue, go through the door, and poke the next statue. Go back to the original entrance to the big room, this time go right. Jump down over the loop, use the claw to cross over the gap to the right. Go through that room, jump upwards over the gap, go left and down. Use the claw to cross the gap downwards, then go left and up to the blue statue. Poke it, then go back dwon, to the right, up, jump across a gap to the right, and take the second path up to the blue statue, then go through the first. Go through the recently opened door therein and poke the blue statue you find. Retrace your steps back to the first claw ring you come across, which should be in the middle of a 3x3 square. Go right, cross the chasm using the claw downwards, through the doors, jump across the gap, go up, left, down and back up through the door on the left. Go left, down, left to a glue statue, then right, down until you can jump left, then left, jump a small gap, continue left, thendown and through the doors. Now, jump upwards, through another room. Here you can use the Claw to cross the large gap. Cure yourself, then go up and fight the boss. - Stone Golem Just attack with White and cure when necessary. Beware of the Corrode Gas. After he dies, make your way out of the room. You should be able to access the next flight of stairs to the next room. --5F Boss (36,34) Go to the edge of the lave. Jump up 4 times, right 8 times then go down using the Dragon Claw. Go to the other lava edge, jump up four times, go to the left lava edge, jump left thrice, down four, go left using the Claw, jump up six times, loop around and head left, then down, right, and up to the right lava ledge. Use the Dragon Claw, go up, and jump up twice more to meet the boss. - Twinhead Wyvern Use Meteor and White against him. His Fire Breath is semi-lethal towards Phoebe. Remember to cure yourself. After he dies, go to the left to get out. The next level should now be open. --6F Boss (36,34) Be careful around the edges here, because you can fal down a level and have to start over. From the start, go up, right, down, and up the small staircase. Go right, up, left for quite a ways, then up, right, down a small staircase and up through a door. Continue up, then right for quite a ways, then down, through a door, then right, up at the first possible point, up a small staircase, then down, left, up, left for a while, then down and to the right until you hit the boss. - Zuh Have both cahracters use White for the first rounds until the underlings die. Then, switch to Flare and White. Remember that Zuh, like Pazuzu, has a Psychshield, which only lasts two rounds but will do ungood things if you attack it with magic. After his demise, retrace your steps. You might even fall in the holes to make a trip through the Lava stage, which may be easier. You can now access the final door --Doom Castle Boss (36,34) Go straight up to the statue. The four crystals you restored come and open the way to the Dark King. Collect all of the treasure before you go in. - Dark King You get to choose between two ways of killing the Dark King: a) The Chicken way: Have the hero use Cure magic on the Dark King. Are you ready for, say, 32000 HP OF DAMAGE!!! Give us a challenge, PLEASE!! b) The Real way: Use Flare and White for two rounds. The Dark King will mock you, then change into a spider like thing with weapons in each hand. Now, cure all wounds and make sure they stay that way. Use Refreshers if ever he lowers any of your attributes. That taken care of, resume the Flare and White treatment. Soon, he'll change into a real spider. Now, have Phoebe cure the both of you at every turn, and the hero continue to use Flare. He'll later change into an Octopus thing, letting you know he'll die soon. Continue with the attacking, and you'll succeed. ----End of Game (36,34) Watch the hands-down cheesiest ending SquareSoft ever came up with, tell everyone within a shouting distance about your success, and reward yourself with a trip to the refrigerator. ----------Disclaimer All items, weapons, spells, armors, monsters, characters, places, and the like mentioned, described or explained within were created by and are copyrighted by Square Co, Ltd.
