When you chose your team in the final section I suggest the standard
combination of 1 white mage, 1 black mage, 2 fighters, and random 5th member.
Everything under my evaluation is just my personal feelings on that character.
It is totally up to you whether you want to use them or not. When you are
choosing I would suggest looking at the bands those characters can use and set
it up using that as a reference for your team. I will rate the characters
using this system.
*-Horrible *****-Great
Bands that involve Calca, Brina, Harley, Izayoi, Gekkou, Zangetsu, Tsukinowa,
Leonora, Ursula, and Golbez can only be acquired and used if you took the
proper steps to keep those characters. If I missed anything please let me
know.
Brina-A doll created by Luca.
Bands
Calca and Brina-Brina (Dance), Calca (Jive)
GO CALCABRINA-Brina (Dance), Calca (Jive), Luca {Analyze)
Final Calcabrina-Cid, Luca, Calca, Brina (story)
Mystic Waltz-Edward (Bardsong), Calca (Jive), Brina (Dance)
MY EVALUATION-*
This character is useless. Its only good moves are its band moves with Calca,
Cid, and Luca
Calca-A doll created by Luca

Bands
Calca and Brina-Brina (Dance), Calca (Jive)

Vibra Prime-Cecil Ceodore, Cid, Kain (Attack All), Rosa (aim)
MY EVALUATION-**/*****
His usefulness is determined by where you are at in the game. If you are in
the first part of the moon he is only good for a shield. He still has his
cover move so he can defend the weaker characters. Just remember that his
stats are horrible so he will be slow. During the second half of the moon he
is much more useful. His stats are very high and he can do a lot more damage
than during the first part. He will also be able to use his powerful bands
and his weak white magic.

He is not the worst character in the game. Like both of his parents he is

powerful weapons and armor

Final Calcabrina-Cid, Luca, Calca, Brina (Story)
Vibra Prime-Cecil, Ceodore, Cid, Kain (Attack All), Rosa (Aim)
MY EVALUATION-***
Cid is not a bad character. His biggest problem is that he doesn't take hits
well, even when he is wearing heavy armor. He is able to wear some of the
best armor and use decent weapons

Flare Tornado-Edge (Ninjutsu), Rydia (Black Magic), Luca (Big Throw)
Mirage Dive-Edge (Attack), Kain (Jump)
Oboro Strike-Edge, Yang (Story)
MY EVALUATION-****
Edge is not a bad character. Unlike his fellow ninjas he is able to use all
of the different varieties of Ninjutsu. Being able to duel-wield weapons
helps his attack stats but his defense is horrible.
Edward-King of Damcyan
Bands
Feast of the Land-Edward (Bardsong), Harley (Gil Toss)
Mirage Song-Rydia (Summon), Edward (Bardsong)
Sword Dance-Cecil (Attack), Edward (Bardsong)
Fist Dance-Yang (Attack), Edward (Bardsong)
King's Quad-Cecil, Edge, Yang (Attack All), Edward (Bardsong)
MY EVALUATION-**
There is not much to say about him. His attack sucks, his defense sucks, and
his ability sucks. His Bardsong ability is random and can sometimes do
nothing
Gekkou-Ninja from Eblan

Magic List
Flame Starts With
Flash Level 15
Payback Wave Level 24
Blast Level 42
Bands
Blazing Moon Ring-Edge (Ninjutsu), Gekkou (Shuriken)

Wheel of Elements-Zangetsu, Izayoi, Tsukinowa, Gekkou (Ninjutsu all)
Explosive Kick-Gekkou (Shuriken), Yang (Kick)
MY EVALUATION-***
His Ninjutsu ability is focused around attacking with fire. His Shuriken
ability is just a rip-off of Edge's Throw ability except he can't throw swords
or knives.

Ultima Spark-Cecil (White Magic), Golbez (Black Magic)
Spiral Blow-Kain, Golbez (Story)
Advanced Blade-Golbez (Black Magic), Ceodore, Cecil (Attack)
MY EVALUATION-*****
He is the best character in my opinion. Not only can he use the most powerful
weapons and armors, but he can also cast the most powerful black spells.
These include Flare and Meteor. So long as you don't kill him off he will be
one of the top fighters. The biggest downside to Golbez is that his HP will
not increase from the time that you get him until he gets past level 55.
Harley-Edward's Secretary
Bands
Feast of the Land-Edward (Bardsong), Harley (Gil Toss)
Wild Whip-Rydia, Izayoi, Harley (Attack, must all have whips)

Frost Wave-Izayoi (Ninjutsu), Leonora (Black Magic)
MY EVALUATION-***
Her Ninjutsu is focused on Healing and a few attack spells. Her second
ability is used to confuse enemies.

Double Jump-Kain, Ceodore (Story)
Trinity Crusade-Kain (Jump), Cecil (Attack), Rosa (White Magic)
MY EVALUATION-*****
One of the toughest fighters in the game. Not only can he hit hard, he can
avoid attacks using his jump command. Like Cecil he can use white magic, but
unlike Cecil his magic is able to be used in fights.

Sprite Bred-Porom, Leonora {White Magic)
MY EVALUATION-****
There is a good side and a bad side to Leonora. The good side is that she has
the ability to use the most powerful white and black spells. The bad side is
that she doesn't get her level 3 black spells until she is above level 80. If
you are the type of person who likes to level up she is definitely a good
character for you. She also has the ability to learn the Dualcast ability,
which will allow you to cast two spells at once.

MY EVALUATION-***
Like her mentor, Cid, she is able to use strong weapons and armor. However
her defense stats are not that high so you might want to give her a distance
weapon and put her in the back row.

Ceodore's Tale {ffce) Level cap 50

Long ago, this Blue Planet Was saved
By the prayers of an Entire People
Two moons became one anew
And time inexorably marched on ..
The day of departure has arrived
For the heir of the holy paladin
In the skies above the airship,
Two moons rise listlessly,
One ominously growing ever larger.
Why has this dark harbinger returned
A new destiny has begun to unfold,
And yet, as always,
The Crystals shed only their silent light
You start off seeing the title screen which then switches to a
airship flying over the land. You then go to the airship where you
are told your destination is in sight. After a bit of banter between
Biggs, Wedge, and your character Ceodore you will land and you will
gain control of Ceodore. You will be required to talk to all 5 of the
soldiers on the ship to continue the story. After your little chat
you will get drawn in to another chatty cutscene with Biggs and Wedge
After all that you will finally be on the world map. Now it is
time to do a little leveling up. But first we need to discuss some
things about the battle system. Even those who are familiar with the
original game need to listen up. Most of the battle system is the
same but this new game incorporates the concept of moon cycles. There
are four types of moons, New Moon, Waxing Moon, Full Moon, and Waning
Moon. Every time you stay at an inn, use a tent or cottage, or let a
certain amount of time pass the moon will change phase. And during
the different moons certain abilities will be strengthened or
weakened. During the New Moon techniques like Jump and Aim will be
strengthened and White Magic will be weakened. During the Waxing Moon
White Magic will be increased and Black Magic will be decreased. Full
Moon makes your Black Magic stronger and your physical attacks will be
hampered. And finally for the Waning moon attacks are good and
techniques are bad. During each moon the ability that is strengthened
will be highlighted in green and red for the ability that is weakened.
One plus to this is that the moons will also affect the enemies as
well as you. So make sure that you plan your fights for whatever moon
will help you the most while hurting your foes.
Mythril (cemy)
Now you will want to level up Ceodore a good bit. For a little
bit about Ceo he is not the best of fighters but he can learn a array
of white magic on top of being able to do damage. I recommend not
going by what level he is but by the money you have. To get the good
upgrades for Ceo's equipment you are going to need around 600 gil.
That might not seem like much but it will take a while. One thing to
take note of is the airship in the middle of the island. It is not
just there for decoration, there is a pot on board that will heal your
magic and your health. Everybody say hurray for magical pot :).
Dude!! Anyway when you are done leveling up and getting money you
need to head into town. After talking to Biggs and Wedge you can
explore the town. There are three chests hidden in the grass
throughout the city. Above the weapons and armor shop is a ruby ring.
To the right of the equipment shop is a house with no door. Above it
is a potion and to the right is a tent. When you are ready go to the
inn and decide to rest for a bit. Head out of the inn and go to the
grotto outside of town.
Adamant Grotto (ceag)

Adamant grotto 1st floor
Head up the stairs and talk to Biggs. Go forward and get the
chests containing a potion, tent, ether, and phoenix down. Talk to
Biggs again and he and Wedge will join your team. Talk to the guy in
front of the stairs and head to the next floor.
Adamant grotto 2nd floor
Head straight up do not go right after going up the stairs. As
you walk you will have two tutorial battles. One will talk about the
moon phases and the other will talk about bands. Say no after the
fight and continue down the stairs to get a chest with a potion. Head
to the right and go up the stairs for another chest with a tent. Head
back down the stairs and cross the bridge to the right. Go up the
stairs and work your way to the next intersection. Go left and find
the last chest for this floor with a ether. Head back and go up the
stairs to find a stairway to the next area. Before you go up the
stairs completely unequip Biggs and Wedge. They have some decent
armor and it would be a shame to waste it on them.
Adamant grotto 3rd floor
After they leave you head up and you will encounter your first
save point. Under normal circumstances you can't save or heal in a
dungeon. However you can use tents and cottages while on a save
point. As a bonus there tend to be no monsters in rooms dedicated to
save points. Something you might want to do is use a tent to change
the moon phase. While they say you have to complete it during the
full moon phase there is no penalty for changing it. Head out of the
room to the north when you are done. Head left past the rocks to find
a secret passage leading to a phoenix down. Head back through the
passage and go up the stairs and go to the right. Once you go down
the stairs you will have a choice between going up another set of
stair or going down. Head up the stairs to find a chest with a bomb
fragment. Go back down the stairs and continue to head down and to
the left to get a chest with some eye drops. Go to the right and go
down the stairs to the next area.
Adamant grotto 4th floor
Go down the stairs and get the chest on the left containing a
bronze hourglass. Head to the right, cross the bridge, and go up the
stairs for another chest with a tent. Go back down the stairs and go
all the way down. You will find a chest with a Antarctic wind. Head
back up and take the stairs on the left. When you go down the other
stairs there is a chest on the left with a echo herbs. Keep heading
down and you will find a weird alcove below you with space for one
person. Go into it and you will find a secret passage that leads to a
pair of iron gloves. Go back through the passage and take the stairs
on the left and you will see a door and a stair case leading to the
next area. Go in the door and you will find another save point. Heal
up because you are about to have your first boss fight. When you are
ready head down and go through down the stairs. Approach the chest
and the boss battle will start.
BOSS FIGHT-Sand Worm
This fight is a two part fight. The first part will end when the
worm casts whirlwind on you. You need to deal a lot of damage to the
worm to get it to do that. Just make sure you don't forget to heal
periodically. After he casts whirlwind you will back out of the
battle and Biggs and Wedge will come to help you but Ceo will refuse
help. The battle will start again and Ceo will achieve his true
potential. His health will be returned to full and his attack power
will be increased. Now proceed to kick that worms theoretical butt.
Once the fight is over the two of them will join your team and you
will learn the move Awaken.
Be careful when you use this move. It will increase your attack
power for a few turns but when it wears off you will have 1 hp. Now
you have to find your way back to the entrance. But this time Biggs
and Wedge will be there to help you. Before you head up the stairs to
the first floor make sure that you completely unequip Biggs. He is
about to completely leave your party and you need to take all his
armor. That is if you didn't take my advice and do it earlier in the
dungeon
When you exit the cave you need to head for the airship.
WARNING: Wedge is about to permanently leave your party. It is now
time to completely unequip him. Once you are ready to proceed with
the story get on board and talk to the soldier. Remember if you say
yes you will not be able to return to this island for a long time.
You will now be drawn into another scene on the ship. Can't believe
we risked our lives for a stupid tail. Probably could have found one
of those around the castle. Anyway you will now be in the middle of a
monster attack. For this fight have Ceo attack, Biggs use BM and
Wedge use WM to heal.
Baron (ceba)
Baron Castle East Side
After the fight you will transition over to King Cecil at the
castle. When you have control of him head right for another battle.
Just attack twice and the battle should end. After the battle head
right and up and press a little button on the wall. This will open up
a door to a tent, decoy, and a phoenix down. Head up the stairs and
follow the path until you end up in another fight. Kill the three
small birds first then focus on the zu. Keep heading right until you
reach a save point. You will notice a door like earlier but you are
unable to open it. Head down and when you are outside head up through
the gate and into the tower. While wandering around watch out for the
liliths, their slap attack can cause different status effects.
Inside the tower head to the left and down the stairs. Check the
pot by itself to get a Remedy. Head back up the stairs remembering to
get the Ether from the chest. The other chests on this floor contain
a red fang, a Hi-Potion, and a Hermes Sandals. Head up the stairs on
the right to find six pots and two chests. The upper right hand pot
contains an echo herb, the bottom middle contains a bacchus's wine,
and the chests have a Hi-Potion and a Heavenly Wrath. Up the final
stairs to find a girl being harassed by a monster. But before we help
her loot the two chests for a remedy and 500 bucks. You would think
being the king of a castle his wife would give him more of an
allowance, but what can you do? Now it is time to help the woman.
Kill the ogre and get the Bomb Crank from the chest and head back to
where you started at.
Baron Castle West Side

Once you get back to the middle of the castle take the left path
and try to go up the stairs. A soldier will come down followed by a
monster. Kill it and head up the stairs. As you try to continue Rosa
will come and force you to take you with her. Continue outside and
head up to the tower. As you approach the tower Cid will come down
and join your team. Now head in the door that Cid just came out of
and go to the save point. Before you go on there are some things to
keep in mind. When you go up the stairs you will have a series of
three fights with this team. If you want you can unequip all of the
armor except the weapons to use later as Ceo. During the third fight
you can unequip the weapons for Cid and Rosa because they leave after
the third fight. Do this only if you are confident in your fighting
abilities. When you are ready go up the stairs and get ready to
fight. The first fight is a couple of Belphegors. To help with the
fights have Rosa cast Slow and Protect. Once you are protected and
healed you can use a band using Cecil's attack and Rosa's WM and deal
decent damage. The second fight is three spirits and an Ahriman. The
spirits should fall after one hit from Cid and Cecil. Just be careful
of the Ahriman's doom attack. If a character dies just bring them
back to life and continue the fight. The third fight consists of one
Strate Avis and three Cockatrices. Take care of the cockatrices first
then handle the bird. Remember that slow helps you to keep control of
the battle. Watch out for the Avis's tornado attack it will reduce
your character's health to single digits. Don't forget before you end
this fight to take the weapons off of Cid and Rosa. After this fight
you will enter into a fight that you cannot win. Just attack with
Cecil until you see a countdown and then unequip his sword. After the
fight you are insulted by an annoying little brat who really pisses me
off.
Mysidia (cemys)
You will now switch back to Ceo. After a very smooth landing
talk to all the soldiers and then talk to Biggs again. Afterwards you
are by yourself. If you took my advice in the previous section now
would be a good time to equip all that good armor Cecil had. Once you
have saved head to the left until you get dragged into a battle. The
Domovoi and Gatlinghog should both go down easily. You will then have
to fight a Flamehound which will proceed to kick your butt. Just when
you are about to kick the bucket a Hooded Man will save you. That
happens a lot in these games, doesn't it? Anyway afterwards you are
back on the world map. For those people familiar with the old game
this is the Mysidia area. One thing you need to do immediately is
heal Ceo. After that last fight he only has 1 hp. Head to the left
until you find the town. There is nothing hidden in the town and
nothing worth buying in the shops so just head straight to the back of
the town and in the building. Talk to the weirdo with the bright pink
hair to find out it is Porom. You remember the little white mage from
the first game? Yep she grew up and for some reason her hair is
bright pink. Anyway she will assign a black mage and white mage to
help you get to Baron. Gee something seems very familiar about this.
Head out of the building and head right to where a white mage is
wandering around. Go to the building and your white mage will open
the door. Walk into the building and step on the circle in the middle
Devil's Road (cedr)

Devil's Road 1st floor
Welcome to the Devil's Road. They definitely made some
improvements on it since the first game. The first half of this place
is fairly linear with some forks which will send you backwards or to
treasure. Follow the path through the first warp panel and you will
end up in an area with wired looking floor panels. Those are poison
so try not to step on them. Head all the way up and go left through a
hidden passage leading to a chest containing a Bomb Fragment. Return
to the other side and step on the panel. In this next area there are
two paths to take, the bottom one will take you back to the beginning
and the one to the right will take you to the next area. There is
nothing in this area so just head to the panel and the one after it.
Now we are at another intersection. The one on the right takes you to
the next area and the one on the left takes you back to the last
intersection. Head to the upper right of this section and there is
another secret passage that leads to a Phoenix Down. Another dang
intersection. Go down and grab the Sage's Surplice and head directly
left through another hidden passage to get a silver apple. The bottom
warp panel will take you to the previous intersection and the top one
will take you to the next area. For this intersection the one on the
right will take you to a room with chests containing a hi-potion, echo
herbs, and ether. You will then be taken back to a previous
intersection. When you get back to where you were take the panel
below you to continue. Just keep following the path and you will come
to a room with a save point.
Devil's road 2nd floor

Think we are almost done? WRONG! We are only half way through
the maze at this point but the next half is a lot easier. From the
save point head left to the next panel. In this room there are a lot
of panels that turn solid when you step on them and send you in a
certain direction. Just follow these directions at the intersections
and you will reach the end. Don't worry there are no treasures in
this room. Here are the directions from the first intersection, up,
panel will send you right, have to go up, up to the top of the room,
next panel will send you left, left, panel sends you left, down, left,
panel sends you left, down, panel sends you left, down, panel sends
you left, left, have to go up, panel sends you up, up, and you should
be in Baron. Now we get to look for treasure in the town. Head for
the front of town and go towards the inn. To the right of the
entrance is a pot with a hi-potion. Now go into the inn and head for
the back of the building. Talk to a pair of crossed swords on the
wall to open a door leading to a dry ether, white fang, and a unicorn
horn. Now head out of the inn and go towards the back of the town.
In one of the barrels is a potion. Now head up, cross the bridge, and
go up the stairs. You will see a stairway into the water so take it
and go all the way to the end. In this area you will find hidden
chests containing an Arctic Wind and a Spider Silk. Now head back out
of the water and work your way to the far right hand side of the city.
Head up through an archway and you will see a man in an area surrounded
by trees. Take one step to the left after standing in front of the
man and head directly up until the trees stop you. Head to the right
into a secret passage which will lead to a hidden area on the left
side of town. Wander around this area and you will find hidden chests
holding 500 gill, a mallet, and a Phoenix Down. That is all for the
town of Baron so head outside
Now you need try to enter the castle but you will be denied
access. Now we need to find another path into the castle. Head back
into town and go to the house that has the Devil's Road. Go up the
stairs to the left of the house and you will come up to a big house.
Go inside and talk to the woman on the left at the table. This is
Cid's daughter and she just happens to have the key that we need.
What a shock. Now leave the house and go down the stairs. On the
left you will see a door. Head to that door and talk to it.
Ancient Waterway (ceaw)

Ancient waterway 1st floor
Once inside go in that little area sticking out of the wall on
the right. Keep heading right through the secret passage to find a
chest with a 2000 gill. Isn't it nice for people to leave that kind
of money laying around. Head back through the passage and go down the
stairs. Head all the way down across the bridge and when you reach a
intersection go down to collect a unicorn horn, 600 gill, and a
phoenix down. Keep heading around to the right until you come to a
bridge above you which you now need to cross. Keep going around on
the islands ignoring the bridge that leads into the water. Keep going
and you will find the staircase to the next area.
Ancient Waterway 2nd floor

This area is filled with secret passages so be careful to not get
lost. If you don't want to get the treasure skip the section next
section
---Go down into the water and keep heading down through the
secret passage to get a chest with a hi-potion. Go down through a
different passage to a new chest with a monster in it. The only thing
you need to be cautious of with the Black Lizard is its Stone Gaze
counter attack. For a cheap win have the black mage cast Stop on it
and beat it with physical attacks. When you win you will get a Coral
Sword. Take one step down and head right onto dry land. Keep going
right and you will find a new secret passage. There is no chest in
the next area so go down into the water and keep heading right. This
passage splits so keep heading up until you get to a new chest which
holds a remedy. Head down into the water and head right until you see
a group of rocks. There is a path between the rocks next to the wall
so take that and head up to the next stair case.---
If you don't want the treasure head right instead of going down.
In the next area stand directly above the rock in the water and go
right to through the passage. In this next area head right until you
see a group of rocks. There is a path between the rocks next to the
wall so take that and head up to the next stair case.
Ancient Waterway 3rd floor

In this next area follow the path and head up the stairs. When
you get off the stairs head left to find a secret passage. Work your
way through it to find a chest with a Soma Drop in it. Head back
through the passage and head up the stairs to the next area.
Ancient Waterway 4th floor

When you reach the intersection head left through the door. We
finally get a long needed save point. Before you head out the door go
to the back of the room and head right through another passage with a
chest with a silver hourglass in it. Now we can head out the door and
go to the right and up the staircase.
Baron Castle
Finally we are out of the sewers. Before we continue much
further unequip the two mages because we are about to lose them for
good. From the exit head to the left and go down the side of the
moat. You will come across a hole in the wall which you need to
enter. You will now lose the two mages and be separated from Ceo for
a little while. When you have control enter the door on the left and
go to the dungeons. You will end up finding many of the castle's
soldiers in jail. HM will get worried about Ceo and want to fight
him. If you want to check out the castle you can but if you raided it
while playing as Cecil there will be nothing to find. Head through
the door to the right of the dungeon and head for a four way
intersection. Head directly north up the stairs and keep going until
you reach the throne room. Approach the throne then try to leave and
Cecil will talk to you. But wait didn't he get his butt fried by
Bahamut? Well whatever the case Cecil is alright but is acting a
little strangely. HM will decide to leave and ends up running into
Ceo. After a bit of lying Ceo will rejoin the team so head down out
the doors. Continue heading down until you get out of the castle.
After the cutscene HM and Ceo will learn a new band.
Your new destination is the mist cave to the west of Baron.

However I would suggest leveling Ceo up to 25 before you enter the
dungeon. At 25 he learns a spell that renders the next boss's best
attack useless. If you choose to level up to the left of the city,
past the sand area is a little circular forest. This is the chocobo
forest. If you level up near there you can just run in and talk to
the white chocobo and it will heal your MP. This will allow you to
save your money by not having to go to a inn. Whenever you are ready
follow the path to the left of Baron, cross the bridge and you should
end up at the mist cave.
Mist Cave (cemc)

Mist Cave 1st floor
---Tail Alert---
While you are on the first floor of the cave during the full moon you
may run into a rare monster called the Thunder Dragon. After defeating this
monster you may receive a Blue Tail which will be useful later in the game.
As you try to enter the cave you will notice a soldier blocking
your path. Ceo will try to talk to him and HM will just attack it.
Just attack and this monster should fall quickly. Once inside the
cave head right. When you come across a door just pass it, you can't
do anything inside of it until you beat this story. Keep following
the path and you will notice some odd shaking. When you come to a
intersection go up and get the steel helm from the chest. Head back
down the stairs and head right across the bridge. Why is it that
these things always happen to Ceo?
Mist Cave 3rd floor

Anyway head down taking the stairs on the left to get a silent
bell. Head back and take the right stairs and follow the path until
you see a bridge and a staircase. Take the stairs and this path will
lead you to a phoenix down and a remedy. Head back to the bridge we
passed and cross it. Don't bother taking the right path on the bridge
it is a dead end. Keep going and at the next intersection head up and
head up in the door. Nammingway is in here and he will sell you some
items should you need it. There is also a save spot in here so make
good use of it. When you are done shopping go out of the room and
down the stairs below you. Go down the stairs and take a right to
find an antidote. Go back and go down this time and you will find
another chest with a x-potion in it. Head right and you will see a
bridge to the right and a path leading up. Head up and cross some
bridges to find a chest with an arctic wind. Head back to the bridge
we passed and cross it. Keep heading right after you cross the bridge
and take the stairs to get on the higher platform. Follow this path
and you will reach the stairs to the next area.
Mist cave 2nd floor

From here head left and take the first staircase to find a chest
with a cottage in it. Take that second staircase and you will come on
a room with a chest containing a piece of chain mail. Go back to the
beginning of this area and go right this time. You will see a save
point on your right so use it and set the moon to whatever phase you
want. Head up the stairs when you are ready for the boss.
BOSS FIGHT-Tunneler
This boss uses physical attacks and so do you so there is no
"best" moon. You have to be careful of his earthquake attack, but i f
you leveled Ceo up to 25 just cast float and it can't hurt you. I
suggest using protect to help decrease the damage and use a spider
silk if you have it to slow him down. A good way to deal decent
damage to the boss is to use the band Ceo and HM learned at the
castle. Make sure if you use the band you keep a close eye on the
magic of both of them. HM doesn't have much MP so he can't use it a
lot. Just make sure you are properly healed and the boss should fall
no problem.
I would suggest heading back to the save point after the fight to
heal up. We are almost done but better safe than sorry. When ready
head past the point where the Tunneler was waiting for you and you
will find yourself back on the first floor.
Mist Cave 1st floor

Ignore the chest you see for the moment and head to the left. Go
down the stairs and around the hole to get the Hi-potion. Go back
and go up the two sets of stairs to find another chest holding a bomb
crank. Now head back to the chest we passed and get the mallet from
it. Now head up and a cutscene will activate where the soldiers from
Baron catch up to you. Thankfully the mist protects you and the
soldiers don't see you. When you have control cross the bridge above
you and exit the cave. After another cutscene you will have finished
Ceodore's tale. When you beat this tale for the first time you will
unlock Rydia's Tale, Yang's Tale, Palom's Tale, Edge's tale, Porom's
Tale, and Edward's tale.
When you start each of these stories make sure that you save them
in different slots. The cleared game data can be used in the final
story. By doing this you will gain additional characters along with
keeping your experience, equipment, items, and gil.
Ceodore's Challenge Dungeon (cecd)
To get to the challenge dungeon go in the Mist Cave and go in the

door on the right. Talk to the bunny and he will teleport you to the
dungeon.
Challenge Dungeon 1st floor

This challenge dungeon is in the same format of the Adamant
Grotto. Follow the path around and go across the bridge. Go up the
path, not the stairs to find a chest with a Dry ether. Now go up the
stairs and head up to find the stairs to the next floor.
Challenge Dungeon 2nd floor

Head up and go through the door. Make use of the save point then
go out the top of the room. Go right and down for a chest with an X-
potion in it. Follow the path leading to the right and go down the
stairs. Go right and walk in between the two rocks to find a secret
path. Follow the winding path up to three chests with a Hermes
Sandals, Bomb Core, and Great Bow. Head back towards the exit of the
path, looking for a branch leading down. Keep looking for an exit to
find a chest with a monster in it. Beat it for a Mythril Sword. Now
return to the entrance of the secret path. Go left and down to find
the stairs to the next floor.
Challenge Dungeon 3rd floor
Follow the path to the right and go across the bridge. Keep
following the path, ignoring the stairs going up, and go down the
stairs. Head all the way down and there will be a secret path in the
bottom wall. Follow the path to the left and you will find two chests
with Fire Arrows and a Vampire Fang. Head back out and go up the
stairs on the left. Go the left and go down the stairs. Keep going
down and go up the stairs on the left. Go in the door and make use of
the save point. Head out and go down the stairs to the next floor.
Challenge Dungeon 4th floor
Go up the stairs and talk to the monster for a boss fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Adamantite Golem

This fight can be a bit hard. During the fight the Golem will
constantly move toward you. As he gets closer his attacks will get
stronger. If you want to weaken the damage you take then move the two
characters to the back row. Cast Slow and Protect then have Ceo focus
on healing while HM attacks. After a few moves the Golem will attack
you several times. After he finishes attacking he will be open for
attacks. Heal up then use Cross Slash to deal massive damage to the
Golem. After a few turns the Golem will return to his starting
position and start the pattern all over. Just keep healing and
attacking and he should fall.
After the fight go forward and open the chest. The prize is
random so just enjoy the surprise. After you open the chest you will
get taken out of the challenge dungeon. If you want more items you
can go back and kill the Golem for more.
Rydia's Tale (ffry) Level Cap 40
Feymarch (ryfe)
Feymarch upper level
The story starts out in Mist when Rydia shows up at her home.
After a bunch of chatting Rydia will return to the Feymarch. Rydia
will go up and start talking to King and Queen. The Queen will start
acting coldly to Rydia making it clear that she is no longer welcome
in the Feymarch. Suddenly the King will start acting weirdly as well
and he will send Rydia out of the room. Soon after the annoying
little girl from before will appear and turn the two of them to stone.
You will then see the title screen. When you return to Rydia you will
see that other inhabitants of the Feymarch are stone statues as well.
Since nobody can stop us lets raid the village. If you check your
menu you will find out that everything is gone. You have no items,
small amount of gil, and your settings from Ceo's tale will be reset.
Head up and get the chest with the potion. Keep heading around the
Feymarch's upper level in a clockwise way to find another potion,
ignore the chest past the warp point for now, get a tent, and a
phoenix down. From the chest with the Phoenix down take one step
right and head straight up. You will find a secret area here. Go up
to find four chests containing ice rod, dry ether, hi potion, and 500
gil. Head back down and head to the top of the area until you find a
grey panel that will lead to the next area. This will take you to the
middle area of the Feymarch. Before you go much farther step back on
the panel to go to the previous area. Step down and get the chest
with a ether in it.
Feymarch middle level
Now head back to the middle level. This level has many different
shops as well as an inn. However everybody is stoned and can't do
business. What a bunch of slackers. From the panel head north and
you will find the inn. Keep heading to the left and enter the house
next to the inn. In here is a little glowing green circle. This is a
save point so go ahead and save. DON'T FORGET TO SAVE IN ANOTHER SAVE
FILE. YOU WILL NEED THE OTHER SAVE FLIES FOR ANOTHER STORY. From the
house with the save point head down the stairs on the left. To the
right of the second stair case is another house with no sign over it.
Go into it and go down the stairs on the left. Before you enter the
grey panel, talk to the book case to the left of it to get a Kokkol
Ore. You can use these later to get stronger weapons. Step onto the
grey panel and you will have another scene. When you can move again
talk to the two statues to continue the story.
Passage of the Eidolons (rype)

Passage of the Eidolons 3rd floor
When the scene is done head back up to where Rydia started at and
step on the grey panel. This will take you to the Passage of the
Eidolons. For those of you who are familiar with the original game
don't worry. The floor will not hurt you like it used to. Head
directly right through the wall and head up. Get the chest with the
ether and then go back where the secret wall is. Go back to the panel
and go down and left. Get the chest with the potion and head right
and get another chest with another potion. Now keep heading right to
another passage. Head down and left. Head up when you can and keep
looking for a passage right to a room with three chests. These will
have 500 gil, Phoenix down, and a tent. Head back to the left and
head up until you stop. Go left and then go up and follow the path
until you reach the stairs. At some point you will have a fight where
Rydia will try to summon and she will be unable to. That's right, our
summoner has no summons, not even the chocobo. That means if you want
to get a summon you have to get the ones that drop from monsters.
These are Goblin, Cockatrice, Bomb, and Mindflayer. Just keep in mind
that these are incredibly rare drops and will probably take a long
time to get. Check your bestiary to find out which monsters drop
these spells. Some creatures will not drop them even though they are
in that monster class. Finish the fight and keep heading to the
stairs.
Passage of the Eidolons 2nd floor

On the second floor there is a save point to the right. Use it
if you want to and head to the left. When you reach an intersection
head to the left and go up to find a chest with some Eye Drops. Go
back down and keep going down until you reach another intersection.
This time go right and you will find another chest with a Bronze
Hourglass. Now head back and go left this time and you will find the
stairs to the first floor.
Passage of the Eidolons 1st floor
Follow the path around and when you get to a three way
intersection go right and you will find a chest with an ether. From
here head all the way up to the top of the area. On the right there
is a chest with a decoy in it. From here go directly right and find
another secret passage. The chest at the end has a feathered cap in
it. Now head back through and head down and left. This will take you
to the stairs out of the dungeon. When you get outside Rydia will
look for someone named Luca. Rydia will get forced into a fight and
she will realize how helpless she is without her summons. Suddenly
cannon fire will come from the sky and kill the monster. The fight
will end and an airship will land nearby. The Luca that Rydia was
talking about was the princess of the dwarves who holds the key to the
sealed cave.
Dwarf castle (rydc)
After some chatting you will be taken to the dwarf castle. Go
inside and head straight to the back of the castle. After talking to
the king it is time to raid the castle. Go down to the previous room
and go up the stairs on the right. This takes you to a room with
equipment stores in it. In the upper left corner of the room is a
stair case leading down and in the upper right is a staircase leading
up. Take the stairs going down. In this room there are a lot of
pots. By searching them you can find warrior's clothes and 2 potions.
Talk to the dwarf and he will open a door. Go in it and head right.
Keep heading right and go down the stairs. Head right and you will
find three chests with a phoenix down, a tent, and a bacchus's wine.
Head back to the left and go down and you will find another staircase
heading down. Head left and when you see three pieces of armor check
the middle one for another Kokkol ore. At the far left of the room is
another one of the magic pots. You can use this to help level up in a
little bit. Now head back to the main area of the castle. Now head
left and pass the door so you can go up the stairs. Here is the inn
and the item shop. To the left of the counter is a pot with S00 gil
in it. The staircase in the lower right of the room will take you
back to the beginning of the castle. The stairs in the lower left
will take you to the towers. Go to the towers and get ready to raid.
Dwarf castle towers

Go up the stairs and search the pots for items. There is a way
to get to some of the pots on the bottom. In one of the bottom most
pots is a bomb crank. That is the only item in this room. When you
get it go up the other staircase. This room navigates through secret
passages so start on the left and try to head around in a circle. The
chests contain a spider silk, soma drop, potion, and a Hermes sandal.
Head back to the stairs and work your way past the room with the pots.
Instead of heading to the room with the inn, go straight down from the
staircase and you will find a door leading outside. Head to the right
skipping the stairs heading up to find another tower. Before going up
the stairs get the chest with a hi-potion. The second floor has even
more pots. The only thing in here is another Kokkol ore in the armor
in the upper left hand corner of the room. Go up the stairs for a
room similar to the other tower. This time you have door ways that
you can use to get to the chests. The chests contain an iron shield,
ether, silver apple, and a phoenix down. We are now done raiding the
castle. Head back down the stairs and go down the staircase in the
lower right corner to go back to the armory. Take the stairs in the
lower left corner and go through the door to get out of the castle.
Go get on the airship and you will find two new party members, Calca
and Brina. After a little scene they will join the team and you will
have control of the Falcon.
There are many places to take note of in the underworld. The
first is the castle where you start at. A little to the left of the
castle is a cave. This cave takes you back to where that magic pot
is. In the bottom right corner of the map is the Kokkol's Forge. A
bit to the left of here is the town of Tomra. Near the town is the
sealed cave. This is where you have to go to continue the story. A
little north-west of the sealed cave is the summon cave where you
started. In the upper left corner of the underworld is the sylph
cave. To the right of it is the tower of Babil and the path to the
OVerworld. However you can't enter the tower and you don't go to the
Overworld till later in the story. Let us start the pillaging at
Tamra.
Tomra (ryto)
For a basic outline of the city, lower left: item shop, lower
right: Inn, upper right: armory, upper left: storage building. Start
by going into the inn. The one of the piles of wood has a Bacchus's
wine in it. Now head to the armory and take the left door. The pot
to the left of the desk has a phoenix down. Now stand right in front
of the desk and go right and there will be a secret passage to the
other side of the building. To the right of the desk is a suit of
armor with another Kokkol ore. Now head outside and go to the left.
Next to the storage building is a couple of pots and one of them has a
Kokkol ore. Now head inside the building. Search the pots for a
potion in the lower left pot and a Kokkol ore in the lower right pot.
For this one you have to go below the pots and go to the far right
wall. We are done here. Now head to the forge.
Kokkol's Forge (rykf)
Go inside and go to the back of the forge to find a fireplace.
Check it to get a Kokkol Ore. Check the pots to the right to find a
hi-potion. Head upstairs and check the bookcase for a angel's
clothes. That is all for now. The thing with the Ores is that you
can bring them here to upgrade weapons. Talk to the dwarf and he will
tell you what weapon you need and how many of the ores you need to
upgrade a weapon. Now it is time to level up. Head back to the cave
with the pot in it. It is a bit north of the forge. Just land there
and use the pot if you need to heal. There are three bands that this
team can use. Luca and Rydia can combine Attack and Black Magic,
Calca and Brina can combine jive and dance, Calca and Brina and Rydia
can combine jive, dance, and analyze. With the one with just Calca
and Brina be careful because it is completely random. It can even
blow up killing the two of them. Another thing to be aware of is
their Jive and Dance abilities. Jive can use status effects and
sometimes attacks while Dance can heal the team and put status effects
on the team. The best part is that they cost no MP but they are
completely random. I would recommend having the following done before
you continue. Calca and Brina at level 10 at least. For equipment
for Luca: Tomahawk, Iron Shield, Iron Helm, Iron Armor, Iron Gloves.
For Rydia: Holy Arrows, Crossbow, Wizard's Hat, Gaia Gear, Silver
Armlet. Just get whatever you feel like buying for the dolls. To get
the Tomahawk you need to have seven ores and a crescent axe. If you
have been following this guide you should have exactly seven ores.
You can buy the axe at the dwarf castle. Then you head down to the
forge and ask the dwarf to make a battle axe. When that is done talk
to him again and ask him to make a tomahawk. This is a very good
weapon for Luca. This is a thrown weapon. This means that you can do
the same damage from the back row as well as hit monsters in the back
without losing damage.
Sylph Cave (rysc)
Sylph Cave 1st floor
Ok before we begin there is something that needs to be said.
This cave is a maze and there will be a lot of backtracking to
previous floors. Like in the Passage of the Eidolons the floor will
not hurt you. Start off by heading right to find two chests with a
spider silk and a potion. We will get that third chest later so don't
worry about it. Now head down and left and down at the intersection.
This will take you to the second floor. While wandering around the
cave if you find the Soul and Spirit enemies try to win the cursed
ring from them. It is a rare drop but is very useful in the later
stories.
Sylph cave 2nd floor
Alright here the cave splits into three sections, which I will
refer to as the north section and the south section. I will start
with the north section so if you want to go south go past the --- part
of the walkthrough
---North section---
From the stairs go around to the right until you come to the
stairs to the next floor. Don't worry there are no chests in this
area.
Sylph cave 3rd floor
Without moving head left through the passage. When you hit the
wall head up and get the two chests with an echo herbs and phoenix
down. To get the third chest step in front of the bottom chest and
follow the path right to get the clown's clothes. Now head back to
the stairs using the secret passage we went through the first time.
The reason for doing this is to get our aim right. When you exit the
secret passage DO NOT go up the stairs. Instead continue heading
right through another secret passage. This will lead to a stairwell
leading back to the 2nd floor
Head to the right and follow the path until you see a chest with
an ether in it. Keep going down and you will see a bunch of open
chests, one closed chest, and a hole. Get the chest with a tent in it
and work your way to the hole.
Get the three chests around you to get a hi-potion, bronze
hourglass, and 800 gil. Now head up and head left through another
secret passage that leads to a grey warp panel. Step on it to go to
the next area.
Sylphs' cache
Now we get to loot four chests. What a nice day to be us, huh?
Open the chests for a ether, horned helmet, mythril knife, and a hi-
potion. Don't forget to equip that nice little helmet on Luca. Now
head to the left to find a grey panel that leads outside. If this is
the first section you did go back to the 2nd floor where we choose to
go this way.
---South section---
If you decide to do the south section first or have already done
the north then head down from the stairs and you will find a staircase
leading back up to the first floor.
Sylph cave 1st floor
There are two ways you can go on this floor. Let's start by going
to the right to where that save point is. After saving head up until
you hit the wall then head right. This will take us to a secret
passage leading to the chest we had to skip earlier. Pick up the S00
gil and head back to the stairs. This time head to the left and you
will see the stairs leading back down. Before we take them lets
continue left and head up to get a dagger out of a chest. Go back to
the stairs we passed and go to the next floor.
To our right is a chest you would have to be blind to miss so
open it to get a phoenix down. Head to the left and follow the path
until you reach an intersection. Head to the right and go up the
stairs.
Sylph cave 1st floor

Head straight up to find two chests containing a hi-potion and a
silver armlet. Now head back to the previous floor
Now head up and you will find another staircase heading down.
Before we take them however there is a secret path to the right that
leads to a chest with a Kokkol ore. Head back to the stairs and take
them to the final stop.
Head down following the path until you find a house. Before
going inside there is a pot to the right of the house with a Kokkol
ore in it. Now head inside
Sylph's home
Even these little guy/girls have been turned to stone. Well no
use crying over spilt milk. Grab the two chests for a mage's robe and
a healing rod. Head up the stairs and keep going forward to find the
way out. Now we are done it is time to go to the Sealed cave. Before
we go head back to the castle's back door and use the pot to restore
your health.
Sealed Cave (ryse)

Sealed cave 1st floor
As you enter the cave Luca will walk up and break the seal.
After a little more chatting you will be able to enter. One thing you
need to be careful of is that some of the doors in here will turn into
monsters and attack you. These monsters have a pattern. First they
will target one of your characters and then they will use an attack
called Ninth Dimension to kill that character in one hit. There is no
blocking this attack. And after you do enough damage it will change
into another monster. In order to get the most exp from this you have
to kill it while it is still a door. The one way to deal with this
monster is to attack it as much as you can in between the target and
the instant kill attack. He will not change during this time. The
best way is to have Rydia cast stop on it and just beat the crap out
of it. Head right and down and you will see a little rope crossing
the gap. Get on it and head down and you will see a door. There are
two chests in this room containing an echo herbs and a ether. Head
back outside and head down to find a chest with a potion in it. Head
up a little and go left. You will see another rope so cross it and
head into the door. In this room are two doors and two chests. The
chests contain a potion and a tent. The door on the left has nothing
in it and the door on the right has mage's clothes. Next head to the
bottom right and go down the stairs.
Sealed cave 2nd floor

Below you is two ropes. Take the one on the left to get a chest
with a gold needle. Now head back across the rope and head right. Go
across the bridge to find a chest with a phoenix down. Head up and
you will find a large amount of doors. The first door is empty, the
second has a chest with a battle axe, third has three chests with
Zeus's wrath, bomb fragment, and bomb crank. The fourth door has a
hi-potion, fifth has a save point in it, and the sixth has two chests
with a bronze hourglass and a potion. Now head back and save and when
you are ready to continue head left and down to find another door. In
here is a chest with a ether in it. Keep going left and down to find
the next floor.
Sealed cave 3rd floor

To the right are a couple of chests with a phoenix down and a
cottage. Go to the left and go in the door. Talk to the skeleton to
get another Kokkol Ore. Go back out the door and head down to leave
the room. Head to the right bypassing the rope leading down to find
another room. Head inside and you will have to fight one of the
doors. Going through the door will put you in a secret passage. When
you can't go up anymore head right 9 steps, down 8 steps and right 6
steps and go up to get the Horned armor. Leave this room and circle
around to get a chest with a hi-potion. Now go left and head down the
rope to the next area. Head right and go into the room with a lot of
boxes and some chests. The box in the lower right corner has a Kokkol
ore and the two chests contain a gold needle and a dry ether. Head
back out and go left and up to find another stair case leading down.
Sealed cave 4th floor

The room you start in has a save point so make use of it. We
have a boss fight coming up so we want to be healed up. I suggest a
full moon to hinder the bosses physical attacks. When you are ready
head down to leave the room. Go either way around the circle ignoring
the ropes until you reach a platform in the middle of the room. Head
up and you will find the stairs to the next floor.
Sealed cave 5th floor/crystal chamber

Follow the torches around until you find a bridge. Cross it and
go in the door to the crystal chamber. Go forward and take the
crystal. Before you head out the door make sure that you are
completely healed. When you cross the bridge you will be attacked by
the wall. You shouldn't be surprised cause you have been attacked by
doors throughout the dungeon.
BOSS FIGHT-DEMON WALL

For the people who played the original game they will definitely
remember this boss. The concept is the same this time around. For
those who are new to this series this is a fight against time. As the
battle progress the Wall will get closer to you. When it gets close
enough to your team it will use a attack called Crush that will kill
one character instantly. One of the first things you need to do is to
try to slow down the wall. For that use a spider silk. For Calca and
Brina have them use their band try to deal massive damage. For Luca
use an attack or use the band with Rydia. Have Rydia use the band or
black magic. Watch out for the Wall's stone gaze attack. Use a gold
needle to get it off quickly. When you need to heal use Calca or
Brina. If you feel brave enough try to end this fight with Calca and
Brina dead. This way Rydia and Luca will get more Exp. This is
because you are about to lose the two dolls.
Once you are done the crystal is officially yours. When you get
to the save point (either one) make sure that you unequip the dolls.
The last chance that you have to take the take their equipment is
before you reach the entrance. When you reach the entrance you will
have a scene where Rydia remembers her past time in the cave. Later
the annoying girl who stoned the Eidolons will appear and demand the
crystal. Rydia will refuse and the girl will attack you. However
Calca and Brina will defend you. The girl will attack again and take
the crystal. Now go outside and get on the airship. You will now
have the choice of going to the Overworld. Remember that when you go
up you can't come back down. So try to get everything done that you
need before you say yes. Every time that you board the Falcon you will
have the option of leaving. One thing to do is head to the Forge and
get a Dancing Dagger made for Rydia. Used as an item it will do large
damage to a monster.
Overworld
When you get on the Falcon and select to go to the over world you
will have a scene in which you will end up getting into a fight
BOSS FIGHT: Calca and Brina
This is not really a boss fight, though it is one that you can
lose if you are not properly prepared. If you have the Tomahawk
weapon for Luca make sure that she is in the back row. For this fight
Rydia will not be able to do anything but defend. Just focus on one
at a time and they should fall quickly.
When everything is over you will have crash-landed on the island
of Agart. The only things here are a town and a cave. Let's start by
exploring and raiding the city.
Agart (ryag)
This city is a big circular based city centered around a well.
Start by heading around the left of the well and you will find a patch
of grass. Hidden away in it is a potion. Keep heading up walk around
the lake. On your right you will see the weapon and armor shops, but
there should be noting you need in it. Head down the stairs and go
out of the town. If you need to buy some items, the shop is in the
Inn. Other than that there is nothing in this town. If you want to
level up a little outside the village go ahead but there is a magic
pot in the mine which is better suited for leveling up. Before you go
into the mine make sure that you have plenty of tents. If you want to
use Calca or Brina ever again you will to get some items out of the
mine. Two of these can only be obtained during a certain moon phase.
Agart Mine (ryam)
---Tail Alert---
If you are wandering around during a Waning Moon you might come across
the Green Dragon. After you defeat the creature you might find an item
called a Green Tail that can be used later in the game.
Agart Mine 1st floor
Start by heading to the left to get a chest with a hi-potion.
Head to the right and find the stairs. Keep following the path
gathering the chests along the way. You will find a remedy and a
artic wind before you will reach the stairs
Agart Mine 2nd floor
This is another short floor. Follow the path and cross the
bridge to find the magic pot. Go down the stairs below you to get a
chest with an x-potion. Head right past the stairs to the next floor
to find a cottage. Now head down the stairs to the next floor.
Agart Mine 3rd floor
Head down till you reach the intersection. From the intersection
go down until you find a chest with a phoenix down. Go back to the
intersection and go right and you will shortly reach another
intersection with one way leading up, one leading right, and one
leading down. The one up is a dead end. The one right leads to a
decoy. The one down leads to another intersection. Go down to find a
chest with a piece of Plate Mail. Go back to the previous
intersection and go right to yet another intersection. Head up and
you will find a room with a save point. Go back out of the room and
go all the way down to the stairs to the next area.
Agart Mine 4th floor

We now have another maze to deal with. At the first intersection
head to the right. The next intersection has two different ways to
choose from. The one going up leads to Mythril gloves and the one
going down leads to a pot with a dry ether. Go back to the first
intersection and go up. At the next intersection go left to get a
chest with a remedy. Go back and this time go right ignoring the
branch leading up to a door. We will go there later. After going
right you will find another intersection with branches leading up and
right. Go right and you will find a pot with a mythril spring. This
is one of three items you need to get on this floor to repair Calca
and Brina. Go back to the previous intersection and go up. Next
intersection go right to the save point. If you want to repair Calca
and Brina change the moon to Waxing and go to the door we passed
earlier. In this room are enemies that you can only find in the
Waxing moon phase. Otherwise there is nothing there. The fights are
always the same. You will find two Quarto Puppets and the game will
play the music from the original Calcabrina fight. What you want is
for these enemies to drop a Mythril Nut and Mythril Bolt. You need
both in order to repair Calca and Brina. One way to fight these
monsters is to cast stop on them and wail on them. The other way is
to cast toad on them to weaken their attack power. From the save
point head up and take the path on the left. This will get you a
chest with a circlet. Go back to the save point and change the moon
to the phase that best fits your fighting style. I suggest the full
moon because you will need Black magic in order to survive the fight.
When you are ready head up from the save point and take the right path
at the intersection to a chest containing ...
BOSS FIGHT: Agartoise
The first few seconds of this fight is easy. Have Luca use a
spider's silk on the boss and have Rydia use a Hermes sandal. Now you
need to be patient. Make sure that Rydia is ready to make a move at
anytime. Use the triangle button to switch to Luca when her turn
comes up. After a little time the boss will start gathering fire
magic in its body. At this point Rydia comes in. Have her cast
Blizzara and the boss will lose its energy. It has to be an ice
attack but blizzard does no damage. Another way is to use an item
that casts an ice spell. One thing to remember is to NOT ATTACK THE
BOSS PHYSICALY WHILE IT STORES ENERGY. It will counter with an attack
that will likely kill you. When the energy goes away the boss is open
to physical damage. Just be careful and you should have no trouble
winning the fight.
After the fight you will receive the Agarite. This is what you
need to repair the Falcon. You now have two choices. You can either
walk back and work your way through the maze or you can have Rydia use
warp to jump floors back to the beginning. I suggest option two
making a stop on the way to use the pot to restore magic and health.
When you get outside your destination will be the Falcon. As a note
when you get on the ship Rydia's tale will be over. When you board
the ship one of two things will happen. Option 1) you did not get the
three mythril items and Calca and Brina will be used to repair the
ship. Option 2) you retrieved the three items, the ship is fixed, and
so are Calca and Brina. Whichever one you did the result is that you
will end up in a two part fight
BOSS FIGHT: Titan

As I said before this is a two part fight. For the first part
just attack titan as much as you can. Use the Dancing Dagger for
Rydia and Attack for Luca. During this section Titan will not attack
you. I am not completely sure if the damage will carry over to the
second part but it couldn't hurt. After some time a scene outside of
battle will occur and you will start the second part of the fight. If
you have a spider's silk use it to slow Titan down. otherwise use
Attacks, items, bands, and magic until you bring him down. If you are
fighting him during the Full Moon his attacks will be weaker then
usual and that should help you a lot. Just watch out for Titan's
earthquake attack which will do damage to both members. Eventually he
will use an earthquake attack that will take both of you down to 1 HP.
Things will look pretty bad for the team until once again a character
with no clear name will come to your rescue.
After the fight the Man in Black tells you to go to the tower.
After seeing the Tower of Babil light up Rydia will ask who the MIB
is. You will then go to the title screen and Rydia's story is done.
Choose to save and you will be taken back to the Main Menu. If you
did not get the Mythril items and want to go back and get them you
will have to redo the fight with Titan to make it count. Now go to
the Select Story menu and choose your next poison. You might notice
that a new Tale is included, this time for Kain. I will cover it
later but if you want to do it now go ahead.
Rydia's Challenge Dungeon (rycd)
Go into the town and head toward the inn. Behind the inn is a
house with a bunny standing in front. Talk to him to enter the
challenge dungeon.

Go forward across the bridge and you will see three doors. All
of them are guarded by Trap Doors so take care of them the same way as
before. The doors on the left and right are dead ends so go through
the middle one. In here are three more doors. If the door that you
want to go through is locked, then leave the dungeon and come back.
The door on the right leads to a chest with a Chain Whip. Go in the
middle door and go forward to see two candles. DON'T TALK TO THE
SYMBOL BETWEENT THE CANDALS. If you talk to the symbol on the wall it
will attack. Just use the same strategy you used on the first Demon
Wall and you will be fine. The thing is that there is no prize for
beating the Wall. Go to the left of the candles and talk to the door.
Beat the door and go through for a chest with a monster in it. Beat
the monsters for a Mythril Helm. Head back and take the door on the
right. Head up through the next door and you will find three more
doors. Each of the doors leads to a Demon Wall but two of them are
dead ends. Take the door in the middle to find a save point. Go up
Once again you have a choice between three doors. Take the door
on the right and you will find two more doors. Take the door on the
left to find a chest with a ether. Go back and take the door on the
right. Keep going to the back and you will find three chests
surrounded by bones. That is very comforting, isn't it? The chest on
the right has a Lunar Curtain, the middle has an x-potion, and the one
on the left has monsters. When you win you will get Mythril Shield.
Now give it to Luca because it is a nice improvement. Now go back to
the first room. The door in the middle leads to nowhere so don't
bother with it. Go through the door on the right to find two doors.
Go through the door on the right and you will find three doors. The
ones on the sides lead to dead ends so go through the middle door.
Head up through the next door and you will see an indention to the
left and right of you. Go left and go down the indention to find a
chest with a Bronze Hourglass. Head back up and you will find more
symbols that turn into Demon Walls. Talk to the one on the right. Go
through the door and use the save point. Go up the stairs to the next
floor.
In this room you have cross ropes to continue. Many of these
ropes will have fights that you can't run from. Using this little map
I will show you what rooms have something in them and which ropes have
monsters. To find the room you want look at the number then go to
that number under the Room section. It is the same for the ropes.

BOSS FIGHT: Boss Gabby/ 3 Minion Gabby

This fight can be a bit difficult. There are a lot of things in
this fight that can go wrong. If you attack the Minions too much they
will explode on you. If all of the Minions die then this fight will
be pretty much impossible to win as he will use Curaga as well as
status enhancements that make the fight difficult. The trick is to
kill off two of the Minions then focus on the Boss. The bad part is
that he will counter with spells like Firaga, Thundara, and Bio. If
you have it, use your own Bio spell to deal serious damage to the
Boss. The big threat in this fight is the Firaga spell, which will
kill either of the characters if they have less than 1000 HP. Once
the Boss is dead kill the last Minion to end the fight.
After the fight go up and open the chest for a prize. The prize
is random so just hope for something good. You will then be
teleported out of the dungeon. If you go back in and beat the boss
you can get a new prize every time.
Yang's Tale (ffya)Level Cap 40
Fabul (yafal)
You start off with the title screen then immediately start with a
fight. You will easily defeat the three monks with regular attacks.
After the fight Yang will give some constructive criticism on the
monks and his daughter, Ursula, will come out. She will ask to train
with Yang and he will not allow her. While she tries to convince him
the Chancellor will come out with urgent news for Yang. After a bit
more talking you will have control. Like before all of your settings
will be reset. You really would think that the king would have more
than 300 gil even if he is a monk! Any way we now have to head to the
throne room. Head up through the door and you will see three paths.
The one on the left leads to the inn and item shops, the one on the
right leads to armor and weapons, and the one in the middle leads
further into the castle. There is a save point in the Inn room so go
ahead and save. DON'T FORGET TO SAVE IN ANOTHER SAVE FILE. YOU WILL
NEED THE OTHER SAVE FLIES FOR ANOTHER STORY. Head back out and take
the middle path. Straight ahead is the throne room but we have a
detour to make first. Head left or right and go down. Go through the
door and you will be outside with two towers one either side
West Tower
We have a room with pots and three chests. The chests have a 2
potions and a phoenix down. With the two pots by themselves the left
one has a Hermes Sandal in it. Go up the stairs. There is nothing on
this floor unless you want to talk to the monks. On the third floor
is Yang's bedroom but there is nothing here
East Tower
There is nothing on the first floor except some monks. In the
bottom pot on the second floor is a Bacchus's wine. On the third
floor is a chest containing a hi-potion
When you are done exploring the towers head to the throne room.
You will then have a scene in which Yang finds out that Baron is
starting to act suspicious once again. Suddenly a monk will come in
and tell Yang that his daughter has escaped from the castle. Yang
will decide to go after and two of the monks will join him. Head to
the left and search the pot for a bomb fragment. Go right past the
throne and you will see an oddly colored thing on the floor. Step on
it to open the hidden door. Follow the path down until you can't go
anymore then go straight right till you find three chests with a
potion, a tent, and S00 gill. Now we are done in the castle so head
back to where we started the story and go down to get out of the
castle. If you want to level up a little you can but it doesn't
matter. One thing you might want to do is get some more advanced
equipment. Just remember that monks take more damage than normal
because they can only equip light armor. When you are ready there are
two things you can do. The first thing is walk to the mountains in
the west. The other option is to head to the east and find the
chocobo forest and take it to the mountain
Mount Hobs (yamh)

Mount Hobs East Slope
First of all head left to get a chest with a potion. Then go
back and head up and follow the winding path up the mountain. Get the
chest with another potion and cross the bridge to the left. At the
other end of the bridge go inside the door to the next area.
Mount Hobs East Trail

When you enter Yang will mumble some worries about his daughter.
Go to the left and go right at the next intersection for a chest with
a tent. Go back and keep heading up and get the chest with a potion.
Go up and through the door to the next area.
Mount Hobs East Vista

Head left and follow the path to the first intersection. Go
right and get the tent and go to the left across the bridge. Go down
and get the chest with the hi-potion. Then head up and cross the
bridge above you and to the left to find a save point. Go right past
the save point for a chest with a phoenix down. Go left across the
two bridges, go up the stairs, and go in the door to the next area.
Mount Hobs Summit
Grab the chest on the right for a Maiden's Kiss and head down.
When you go down the stairs you will see Ursula in a fight for her
life. For those of you who played the original you can probably guess
what happens next. She will take out the first two with no problem,
the next three you have to kill, and the third one is a boss fight
BOSS FIGHT: Mom Bomb

Didn't this thing die in the last game? Anyway this is a three
part fight. For the first part it will attack you while you attack
it. For the second part it will expand and will blow up. You can't
kill it so just attack it until it uses the Massive Explosion and
blows up. However it can use an explosion attack that will not
continue the fight. For the third part it will blow up, damaging the
team, and separate into 3 bombs and 3 grey bombs. Just worry about
taking them out one by one
After the fight Ursula will force you to take her along so she
will join the party. Head down the stairs and get the chest on the
right for a hi-potion. Go to the left for the door leading to the
next area.
Mount Hobs West Crossing
Go to the left and follow the path to the intersection. At the
intersection go down to find a chest with a Kenpo Gi. Head back to
the intersection and go to the right. Just keep following the path
and you will find a door that leads to the next area.
Mount Hobs West Slope

Head left and go in the door leading to the other area
Mount Hobs West Vista

Follow the path to the left and use the save point. Go down and
find the chests with a potion, phoenix down, decoy, and a hi-potion.
Now go back to the previous area
Mount Hobs West Slope
Go down the stairs and to the right you will find the rabbit
selling items. Head back to the left and go down the slope. Go left
and get the chest with the Power Armlet. Go back to the right and go
down the other slope to leave the mountain. Head left till you find
the meteor. There is no way around it so just walk into it.
Impact Crater (yaic)
---Tail Alert---
While wandering around during the New Moon you might find a Red
Dragon. If you kill this monster you might find an item called a Red Tail
that has uses in later stories.
Impact Crater Upper Wall
Head right and around the rock and you will see a little brown
mound of dirt. You use these to get from level to level. Hop on the
first one and head to the left to get a chest with a Maiden's Kiss.
Head down to the next mound and head to the right. Hop on the next
mound and it will take you to the next area.
Impact Crater Middle Wall

Start off heading to the left and you will see two mounds. Take
the one on the left for a chest with a tent then head back for the
other mound. Now you will have three mounds so start off with the one
on the right. This will take you to a chest with a Headband. Get on
the mound to the left and it will take you back a little bit. Get on
the mound right next to you and take the one on the bottom. The one
on top just leads in a circle. Take the mound on the far left and it
will take you to a save point. Go back around and take the mound on
the right this time. Go right and take the first mound you come to.
This will lead to a chest with a Metal Knuckles. Equip this on Yang
and hop on the mound to the left. This time skip the mound and you
will see two slopes leading to mounds. The one on the top will take
you back a little bit. Take the one on the bottom and it will take
you to the next area
Impact Crater Lower Wall
Go to the left and go around the mound for a chest with a
Antarctic wind. Take the mound and go right and down the slope and
continue to the left. You will come to a choice between a mound and a
slope leading down. Take the mound and it will lead to a chest with a
silver armlet. Hop on the mound and go back to the left and take the
slope. Continue following the path until you come to two mounds.
Take the one on the right for a chest with some Faerie claws. Again
give them to Yang and take the other mound which will lead to the next
area
Impact Crater Floor

Take the mound on the left and head down. You will see a grave
so check it out. It turns out that the grave belongs to a group of
monks from Fabul. While checking the grave the Sylphs will appear
before Yang with a warning. Now it is time to leave. Unlike other
dungeons you don"t have to walk through the entire dungeon. Head down
and you will see a mound that will send you to the left. Head up and
grab the chest with the hi-potion and keep heading up. You will find
a mound here that takes you all the way out of the dungeon. Now we
have to head back to Mount Hobs. When you reach the summit there will
be a scene in which the Red Wings are heading to Fabul. Now continue
off the mountain and head east to the castle. Before you head into
the castle make sure that you change the moon to the Waning Moon
phase. You are going to want to do as much damage as you can in this
next section. Save then head up to the throne room
Fabul (yafa2)
When you reach the throne room you will get one of the annoying
little "'I told you so"' speeches from the Duke and Ursula will be told
to stay there. We will now enter a very familiar scenario for those
who played the original game. For those who are new we are about to
have a lot of fighting to do. The first fight is against 2 Baron
Marines and a Captain. Kill one of the Marines and then kill the
Captain. If you kill both of the Marines first the Captain will run.
Note that the Captain will not attack you, he will just order the
Marines around. You might notice that a 3rd monk will join the fight
in place of Ursula. The second fight consists of a Sahagin, Leshy,
and Domovoi. Just use regular attacks and they will fall quickly.
The third fight is another Captain and Marine set. Just use the same
tactics as before. The fourth fight a simple Gargoyle. The fifth
fight is a repeat of the second. Yang will then hear a voice and the
scene will switch to the Crystal chamber. After some chatting there
is a
BOSS FIGHT: Kain
This is another two part fight. For the first part just attack
with Ursula and keep an eye on your health. Kain"s Jump attack will
do a lot of damage so be careful. Unlike the first game you can lose
this part so you might want to put Ursula in the back row to decrease
the damage. After some time Yang will join the fight. This is good
for two reasons. Reason one, this gives you another attacker and
reason two, gives Kain someone else to attack. Just keep attacking
and healing and the treacherous jerk should fall
After the fight Kain will jump over your head and steal the
crystal. Kain will say that this time he is not being controlled and
is gathering the crystals of his own free will and leave. Yang will
then sulk and his daughter will cheer him up. He will then decide to
go after the crystal. Ursula will want to go with him and once again
Yang will say no. And once again Ursula will force herself into the
team. Go all the way down and out of the castle. Outside you will
see a ship to your right. Head to it to continue the story. Make
sure that you have all the items you need before you go on the ship.
You will get the usual departure scene with Sheila threatening Yang.
After some talking you will be attacked by some monsters. After the
attack you will continue your trip and start a little race with a
Damcyan ship. You will lose because your ship ran out of fuel. Nice
excuse, huh? Anyway you will have to stop at an island to try to get
some more fuel. Yang will run off by himself to try to get some Palm
Oil to get the ship running. It will turn night and you will have
control of Ursula. The sailor to the left of the mast will let you
rest for free. The sailor to the right of the mast will sell you some
items and equipment should you need it. If you want to buy the Metal
Knuckles you can. Going down the stairs in the upper left corner of
the ship will lead you to a save point. Try to leave the ship and the
captain will try to stop her. She runs off anyway and the three monks
will follow her.
Adamant Isle (yaai)

Adamant Isle Forest: Ursula
Ok most of this forest is a dang maze worse than anything we have
seen before. I will try my best to lead you through it. To return to
the ship just go left from where you start off. Head to the right and
follow the path through the forest. When you come to an intersection
go right and up to two chests with a cottage and a phoenix down. Go
back and this time head down and continue following the path. At the
next intersection go down for a save point. Head up and go right
through the trees near the top to go to the next area. Before you
regain control you will have a flashback between Yang and Sheila.
Adamant Isle Forest: Yang
Right next to you will be a magic pot that will restore your HP.
I would not worry too much about fighting with Yang at the moment.
Continue and you will find an intersection with three paths. The one
on the right leads to a chest with a hi-potion, the one on the left
will take you to a chest with a silver breastplate, and the one going
up will take you to the next area.

Head to the right and you will see an intersection. Go to up
ignoring the grassy area. At the next intersection go right and stay
on the left side and you will come to an x intersection. Take the
upper left for a chest with a remedy. Go back and this time take the
upper right path to find a secret path leading to a grassy area with a
Hermes Sandals in it. Now return to the intersection and take the
bottom right path. Follow this path and you will find a chest with a
hi-potion in it. When you come back through there is a secret passage
through the trees that you can take to go the to the beginning of this
section. Head down and right to go to the next area
Adamant Isle Forest: Yang
Now we go back to Yang. Head up and you will reach a
intersection. Go up and get the chest with the Green Beret and go
back down. At the intersection go right to get a chest with a bomb
crank in it. Now go back and continue downward to the next area.

Right from the start we have a choice to make. From now on every
time we change areas we will stay as Ursula's group. This is where
the maze part happens so be careful. Follow the bold path to the
Boss. Start by going up and exiting the area. Right above you will
be a save point so make use of it. This is where you need to make the
choice between treasures or the story. If you choose the story go
past the section with --- before it. Both of these sections will
begin the same way one will just loop back to the save point
---Go back down and at the intersection head down and you will
see a little cross in the trees. Go right and it will take you to a
cottage. Head back through and go down. Go left to the next area.
Going left from here will take you back to the beginning of this
section. From here go right and get a chest with a Rune Armlet. Go
back and go down and right to the next area. Here we have another
intersection. Go up from here and you will get to another area. Here
we will have another intersection. Going up will take you back to
where the save point was. Go right and you will get a chest with a
Hell Claws in it. Keep going left and you will get to another
intersection. Have I mentioned that I hate this forest? Both ways
end up at the same spot so pick one and go. When you have a choice
between going left to a new area and going right, go right. This will
take you to a spot with a chest containing a Phoenix down. Head back
to the left and enter the next area. We will now be back at the save
point.
Go back down and at the intersection head down and you will see a
little cross in the trees. Go right and it will take you to a
cottage. Head back through and go down. Go left to the next area.
Going left from here will take you back to the beginning of this
section. From here go right and get a chest with a Rune Armlet. Go
back and go down and right to the next area. Here we have another
intersection. You need to go down to continue through the forest. Go
down again to get a chest with a bronze Hourglass. Go back up and go
all the way left to the next area. Keep going left to the next area.
Go down from here and go up to the save point. Make the moon whatever
phase you want because we have a boss coming up. From here go right
to the next area. Follow the path around and you will get to an area
with palm trees. Talk to the trees for.
BOSS FIGHT: Adamantoise

Once again this is a two part fight. For the first part you will
not be able to do much damage to the boss. Eventually the boss will
get tired of your attacks and take the monks down to 1 HP. Ursula
will remember a "lesson" from her father and learn the Tenketsu
attack. Suddenly Yang will join in and the fight really begins.
Start by healing the monks so that they don't die. Also use a
spider's silk to slow down the boss if you have it. The best job of
the three monks is to heal your team when they need it. For Yang and
Ursula have them use the band with Attack and Tenketsu to do some
damage. Just keep up the damage and he should fall easily.
Once the fight is over you will get the Palm Oil you need.
Ursula will also get to become her father's student. Plus you will
get a new band. Happy days for all. Now we just have to get back to
the ship. Just retrace your steps and you should do fine. When you
get back to the beach unequip the three monks. We are almost done
with Yang's story and if you don't unequip them you can't use the
equipment in later stories. When you board the ship the crew will
refine the oil and you will be back on the way to Baron. A scene will
show the two of them acting concerned and the story will end with the
ship heading toward a giant whirlpool.
Yang's Challenge Dungeon (yacd
This dungeon is pretty straight forward. To the right of the

door is a monk who will explain the rules of the floor. You will have
to walk through a series of corridors to find chests guarded by
monsters. Behind the chest are two doors. The door on the left will
lead to a guarded teleporter out of the dungeon. The door on the
right will lead further into the dungeon. If you decide to leave the
chests will reset and you can get more items. As you go through the
dungeon the monsters will get stronger and change. Handle this by
changing the elements of your claws if you need to. On the fourth
treasure room you will have only one door to choose from. This
treasure will be rarer than the other chests in the dungeon. The next
set of corridors will be a bit longer than the others. At the end is
one last monster to fight.
Palom's Tale (ffpa) Level Cap 40
We start off on a ship with the captain and a sailor trying to

catch fish. They seem to be afraid of someone and call him a brat.
Palom will come up and you will find out that he really is a brat. He
is even more annoying than he was in the original game. He will
complain about being respected, about the fish, about the time of the
trip. Does this brat never shut up! There will be a flashback to
Mysidia in which Palom will complain about having to go to Toria.
What boy complains about going to a place where there are mainly
girls! You will then go to the title screen. You will return to
Mysidia and the Elder and Porom will talk about Palom. Now we go back
to Palom. You will then get control of Palom. Don't forget to change
your settings back to what you want and arrange Palom's magic. Wander
around the deck and talk to the captain to continue. When you pull in
you will notice the tall tower. Once you get off the boat you will be
able to save. DON'T FORGET TO SAVE IN ANOTHER SAVE FILE. YOU WILL
NEED THE OTHER SAVE FLIES FOR ANOTHER STORY. Head left, cross the
bridge, and follow the river up. To the left of the second bridge is
a chocobo forest. Get on a chocobo and go north until you see a town
and castle. This is the land of Toria. Let us start by going into
the town.
Toria (pato)
To the left of the entrance are the equipment shops. Across the
bridge in front of the entrance is the item shop and the inn. To the
right of the inn is a staircase leading into the water. Go into the
water and follow the path on the left. When you reach an intersection
go up and go up the stairs. Go left through the trees and you will
find a grassy area with a dry ether, 1000 gil, ether, and a decoy.
That is all for the town so head back out of the city and go into the
castle.
---Tail Alert---
Those who are familiar with the old game will remember the pub to the
northwest of the item shop. Underneath the pub are rooms where you can watch
girls dance. This time there are three floors to it. You walk into the pub
and talk to the first girl on the left and for 10,000 you can get the
Member's Writ. Talk to the man to the north of her to use it. And no these
can be used multiple times. Follow the path and talk to the man behind the
counter to watch the very disturbing show. Afterwards go through the door in
the back right of the room and talk to the old woman to buy the Member's Card
for 50,000. Head back out and talk to the man next the right wall. Tell him
no and show him the Member's Card to gain access to the lower level. Walk
past the first guy and talk to the guy on the left to start the show. After
it is done you have two doors to go through. The door on the right leads to
two girls who will sell you some armor for Leonora. The door on the left
leads to a girl who will sell you the VIP Card for 99,999 gil. Head back
down and talk to the guy behind the counter on the right. Talk to the rabbit
to get the show started. As you leave you will find a chest with a Black
Tail in it. Despite the money issues this is the easiest tail to get.
Toria castle (pate)

There is nothing on the outside so just head in to the main part
of the castle. When you go up you will see a path to the left, right,
and up. The only thing to the left is a save point. The path on the
right will take you to a room with three stairs. The one on the left
has nothing, the middle one has a hi-potion in one of the pots in the
upper left corner, and the one on the right has eight chests you get
to by stepping on the grey switch. The chests contain 2 potions,
antidote, echo herbs, gold needle, maiden's kiss, 300 gil, and a
phoenix down. Now go back to the middle part of the castle and take
the center path. Palom will go forward, acts rude to the Epopts, and
then Leonora will join the party. You will be told to go to the Tower
of Trials, which is that big tower we passed on while on the ship.
Now it is time to level up a bit. First go to the town and buy some
equipment for them. I suggest using a bow and arrow. A good place to
level up is north of town. Just keep going north past the mountains
and you will find another chocobo forest. When you run out of magic
go in and talk to the White Chocobo to restore your magic. One thing
to know about Leonora is that she will learn black magic as she levels
up. The only thing she gains from the tower is the basic spells fire,
thunder, and blizzard. I would recommend leveling up Leonora to
around 15 before the tower. When you are ready head to the chocobo
forest, grab a chicken and go to the tower.
Tower of Trials (patt)

Tower of Trials 1st floor
Palom and Leonora will walk up and Leonora will open the door to
the tower. Once again he will act like a little brat. Once inside
Leonora will get her first taste of black magic. She will be put in a
fight against a fire doll that Palom has. In the fight she will learn
the fire? spell. This is not the real fire spell but it can do some
damage. If you want to see something funny use the attack on Palom
and he will get upset. Use two spells and the doll will be defeated.
This tower is practically a straight line with some turns. Head to
the left and get the chest with an ether. Now head to the right and
as you go around you will end up in a fight by herself. The mini red
will fall easily and she will learn the real Fire spell. Keep heading
right to find one of the magic pots. There are a lot of these in the
tower so don't be too worried about saving magic. Keep going around
and go down at the intersection to get the chests with an echo herbs
and a gold needle. Go back up and go left to the stairs to the next
floor.
Tower of Trials 2nd floor
Head down and keep following the path until you find a save
point. Use it and keep following the path. When you come to an
intersection go right for the chests with a phoenix down and echo
herbs. Go back and go a bit further up and you will find another
guardian. Once again Leonora will be forced to fight alone again.
This time you have to fight 3 of the Mini Reds. Just attack all of
them at once and they should fall in one or two hits. After the fight
head up the stairs to the next level
Tower of Trials 3rd floor

At the top of the stairs Leonora will learn the Blizzard? spell.
This is exactly like the first time so just go down when you are done.
Get the chest with a phoenix down and keep going down. Go right at
the intersection and get the chests with some Holy Arrows and a tent.
Head up skipping the path to the stairs and you will find another
magic pot. Go back to the stairs and go to the next floor.
Tower of Trials 4th floor

Follow the path and use the save point. Keep following the path,
grabbing the chest with an ether and you will find another guardian.
Once again Leonora will have to fight by herself. This time the fight
is against 3 Mini Blues. Use Blizzard? on them individually and they
should fall easily. After the fight Leonora will master the Blizzard
spell. Continue up to the next floor.

You will now learn the Thunder? spell the same way as the first
two. Head down grabbing the chest with a Healing Staff and continue
until you find the magic pot. Keep heading right until you reach the
stairs doing down

Head left until you reach the intersection. Go down and get the
two chests with a tent and an echo herb. Keep going right until you
reach the stairs.
Just follow the straight path to the next floor.

Grab the Sage"s Miter from the chest and head up to the save
point. Keep going around until you reach the magic pot. Go down and
you will have to fight the last guardian. Like the last two times you
will have to fight 3 monsters this time the Mini Yellows. Use
individual attacks and they should fall easily

Head up and talk to the stone. After the scene Leonora"s title
will change from Epopt Trainee to Epopt. Now we need to raid the
room. Go to the room on the left and you will see four switches. Go
and step on the switches in the upper right corner, lower right
corner, and lower left corner. From the switch room go down for a
chest with a remedy. Go to room on the right and go down for a Hermes
sandal and cottage. Go up and you will see a burn spot on the floor.
Head left while standing on this spot to find a secret passage. At
the end you will find three chests with a dry ether, sage"s surplice,
and a decoy. Now you have two choices. Choice one, walk all the way
down to the bottom of the tower. Choice two, if Palom has Warp you
can use that to go all the way down. When you are out head to the
Chocobo forest and head back to the castle.
Toria Castle
Head up and go to the room with the seven Epopts in it. After
some chatting and questioning the Epopts motives, Palom will be asked
to rest and will be taken to the infirmary. After your rest save and
head back to the Epopt"s room. After a bit of talking you will be
taken into the crystal room. Leonora will try to leave and Palom will
stop her because it is dangerous. The scene will shift to the Epopts
and the annoying brat will appear. The Epopts will argue with her and
the scene will shift back to Palom. Leonora will show him a secret
passage out of the castle. Follow the path until you reach the Toria
Castle waterway
Toria Castle Waterway (patcw)

First thing that you will see is the item bunny to the left. Buy
what you need, save, and head down out the door. Head down and keep
following the path until you reach the intersection. Head down and go
into the water and keep going down. Follow the path and you will find
Lightning Arrows and a great bow. I would give these to Leonora
because her black magic is much weaker than Palom's and this will let
her deal damage to the enemies down here. Head back to the left and
get out of the water. Head right to the stairs and cross the bridge
to find a chest with a hi-potion. Go back to the bridge we passed and
cross it to find a chest with a Heavenly Wrath. Go down the stairs
and you will find the stairs to the next area as well as a magic pot.
This would be a good time to do a little leveling up.
Toria Castle Waterway

Head down and instead of crossing the bridge go right and you
will find two chests with a hi-potion and an arctic wind. Head back
and cross the bridge and cross the islands picking up the ether from
the chest on the way. Keep following the path and you will find
remedy, bacchus's wine, and a phoenix down. There is nothing in the
water so just go under the bridge and up the stairs onto dry land.
Follow the path and go up to find a staircase that will lead you to a
save point. Use it and head out the top

Follow the path making the detour for the tent. Keep following
the path until you reach the intersection. Go up and cross the bridge
to find a rune armlet. Go back down and head down into the water. To
your right you will see two rocks. Walk between them and keep going
right and you will find three chests with an echo herb, Lilith's kiss,
and a cottage. Head back to where we entered the water and go all the
way to the left and head up. Go right and head up the first set of
stairs to find a spider silk. Back into the water and head right and
up to find the stairs.

Head around and down into the water. Head left and take the
stairs up onto dry land. Go right before you go across the bridge and
get the phoenix down. Go back and cross the bridge and get the chest
with a Ruby Ring. Head back down and go down the stairs into the
water. Head right and up to find the staircase leading out of the
dungeon. You will appear at the entrance to the castle. Head outside
to the town and buy anything you need from the town. The equipment
shops have some new items so check those out. Before you continue you
need to make sure that you are not wearing anything metal or that
character will not be able to move. When you are ready head for the
chocobo forest north of town. It is the same as before but this time
there will be a purple chocobo here. I know they say it is black, but
let's face the fact that it is purple. Catch it and you will have a
choice about going to the cavern. If you agree you will not be able
to come back. When you are ready say yes to the chocobo.
Lodestone Cavern (pale)

Lodestone Cavern 1st floor
Head right across the bridge and keep going right and you will
find a chest with a hi-potion as well as a magic pot. Go back to the
bridge and head down. Keep following the path and head up when you
reach a big grey thing and you will see a chest with an echo herb and
Lodestone Cavern 2nd floor

Head up and then go left until you see a chest. Take the ether
from it and go back to the right until you see a bridge. Cross the
bridge and go right and into the door. Go either way and you will
find two chests with a circlet and an ether. Head back out the door
and head left until you see the stairs to the next floor.
Lodestone Cavern 3rd floor

On your left you will see a room. Head in it to find a save
point and one of the item bunnies. Save and head back out the door
and down the bridge. At the bottom of the bridge you will see another
grey room so head down and enter it. Inside you will find three
chests with a cottage, spider silk, and Bronze Hourglass. Head back
out and cross the bridge to the left. You will see a path between two
grey walls so walk it to find the door to another room. Head up and
you will see a chest with a polymorph rod and a magic pot. Use the
pot and head down and left to find the stairs to the next floor.
Lodestone Cavern 4th floor
Head left across the bridge and you will see some soldiers coming
after you. Leonora will then show you a secret passage
Head around to the right, skipping the bridge that leads right
and you will find another bridge that leads left. Take this bridge
and you will find a chest with a Mage's robe. Now head back and take
the bridge that we passed earlier. Keep following the path and you
will find the stairs leading to the next floor. Before you take them
head up and around the structure and you will find a chest with a hi-
potion. There is also a hidden path on the upper right hand corner of
the platform that will take you to a chest with a soma drop. Now that
we are done here head back to the stairs and go to the next floor.
Head to the right across the bridge and you will find another
room with a save point and a magic pot. Take this chance to heal and
change the moon to whatever you want to fight a boss fight with.
Before you go in the room, circle around to the right and grab the
chest with a dry ether in it. Head back and go into the crystal
chamber and go up toward the pedestal. Palom will start acting
strangely and Leonora will comment that it is not like him. Just then
the Dark Elf will appear and attack you
BOSS FIGHT: Dark Elf
This is a two part fight. For the first part the Boss will just
cast 2nd level spells on you one by one. To fight have Leonora cast
slow if she has it, if not then use a spider silk. After that have
her focus on physical attacks and heal when it is needed. Just have
Palom use his strongest spells to do damage. Just watch out for his
tornado attack that will reduce a character's health to single digits.
Eventually he will change his form to the Dark Dragon. Now tactics
will change a little. This has become a survival challenge. You just
have to survive until a summon comes and helps you out. If you want
to attack you can, it will do little or no damage.
After the fight the annoying bimbo will have found you. After
some talking Leonora will give the crystal to Palom and teleport away.
He will then pull his final attack and stone himself. The scene will
then switch to Leonora at the last save place. Heal and save and head
out the door. You will go back to Palom and the girl will threaten to
shatter his body. Leonora will then come in and heal Palom. You will
get a flashback to the end of the other game where Palom is showing
off in front of a girl. After a little bit more talking you will
learn the Particle Bomb Band and you will attack the girl
BOSS FIGHT: Mysterious Girl
Finally you get to show the brat what you are made of. Use this
time to try out your new band. Just keep using it and she will
eventually summon Shiva and end the fight.
You will lose the Earth Crystal and the girl will leave. The
scene will switch to Porom who will sense something is wrong with her
brother. You will then see the title screen and Palom's story will be
over.
Palom's Challenge Dungeon (pacd)
This dungeon is made up of random floors that change each time
you enter. Once you leave the first room there is no chance of
exiting the dungeon until you beat the final guardian and grab the
final chest. There are three different floors that you must face in
order to reach the last floor.
---Mountain Floor---
Head up and go down under the bridge to find two paths leading
down. Take the path on the left for a chest with 3000 Gil. Go back
to the main area and take the path on the right. Follow the path and
go up the stairs. Keep following the path and you will find the door
to the next floor. Before you take it go left across the bridge and
follow the path to the bottom left corner for a chest with a Mystic
Veil. Now return to the door and go in it.
---Town Floor---
Follow the path until you reach an intersection. Go to the right
and search the grass at the end for an X-potion. Head back and go up.
When you reach the top go to the right into the house and follow the
secret path. Keep following the path until you find a well. Talk to
the well to heal your MP and HP. Go up a little and go in the grass
behind the house. Search for a chest containing a Blue Fang. Go
right from the well and head up. Search the two pots for a Spider
Silk and a Ruby Ring. Head left through the house and follow the path
to the next intersection. Head up and left to find a pot with 6800
gil in it. Head all the way to the right from here to find a pot with
a Hermes Sandals. Head back to the left, go down, and head to the

Follow the path and at the next intersection go right. At the next
intersection go right and down for a chest with a Cottage. Head back
and go up for a chest with a Silver Apple. Go back two intersections
and go down. At the next intersection go to the right and follow the
path to the next floor.
---Restorative Floor---
This is the only room other than beating the boss from which you
can leave the dungeon. This floor also has a healing panel to the
left of the teleporter. Head up from the healing spot and through the
door to the next floor.
---Flan Floor---
1 think it is very obvious what you will fight on this floor.
Follow the path to the right and go down into the little room with a
bookcase. Search the pots on the left for a Ether. Head down and
follow the path until you reach a dead end. To the left is a little
burn mark. Step on it and go to the left. Go to the top and go left
for the next path. Take one step down and go left for the last secret
path. Go down and you will see a room full of pillars. Search the
left wall for a secret path leading to a chest with 5000 Gil. Go back
to the room with the pillars and work your way to the bottom right
corner. Follow the path to the stairs to the next floor.
---Perplexion Floor---
1 hate this floor. It is a maze so that makes it hard to
navigate. Head to the left and go down until you find a chest with a
Tent in it. Go to the left and when you can't go further go down.
Follow the path and you will find a chest with a Coeurl Whisker in it.
While standing above the chest go all the way up to the top of the
room for a chest with a Unicorn Horn. Head back down and go to the
left where there are three rocks right next to each other. Go down
until you see a chest on the left. Grab it for a potion then go back
to the beginning of the floor. Head down against the right wall, go
left when you can, then continue going down. Once you hit the bottom
wall go left and follow the path until you hit the bottom wall again.
Head all the way to the left to find the stairs to the next floor.
---Maze Floor---
From the entrance go all the way up to the upper left corner.
Here is a Magic Pot that you can use to level up a bit. From the pot
go to the right and follow the path all the way to the right and
follow the path to the next intersection. Go down and then go right.
Follow this path to the next intersection. Go up and right to find
---Strength Floor---
Walk straight up from the starting point to find a chest with a
Killer Bow. Now go all the way left and go down for a pot with a hi-
potion. Now go back to where the Killer Bow was. Go down a bit and
look for a crack in the floor on the right. Stand on it and go to the
right through a secret passage. Head up from here to find a chest
with a Silver Hourglass. Go back to where the Bow was and go left and
up to find the stairs to the next floor.
---Bridge Floor---
Head directly right and grab the chest with the Decoy in it. Now
go down and follow the path to the next intersection. Go down and
left for a chest with a Bestiary. Get back on the bridge and go to
the right. Work your way all the way to the right to find a lot of
crates and a chest with a Dry Ether. Now keep going down and follow
the path to the stairs. Before you take them head up behind the
stairs for a chest with a White Fang. Now go back and take the
stairs.
---Convoy Floor---
This floor is a bunch of ships connected by bridges. Go down and
take the bridge on the left for a chest with a Gaia Drum. Now go back
to the starting ship and take the bottom left bridge. At the next
intersection go down and grab the chest with the Cross. Keep going
right and go down for a chest with a Gold Needle. Now return to the
starting point. From the starting point go right and follow the path
to a Ether. Go down from the chest and take the bridge on the right
for a chest with a Bronze Hourglass. Now take the bridge to the right
of the Ether and follow the path to the boat with the stairs to the
next floor.
---Magic Floor---
This is a very simple floor. Head up from the stairs and go
right for a chest with a Mythril Staff, Head to the left and follow
the path to a chest with a Soma Drop and the stairs to the next floor.
---Last Room---
Head down from the starting point to find a save spot. You might
want to make the moon Waxing for this boss fight. When you are ready
go left or right around the center of the room and go up the stairs
where the guardian is waiting
BOSS FIGHT: Blade Dragon

The boss will normally start out by using Venom Breath. Use a
weak spell to stop him from using it. He will then start casting
Blizzara, Fira, or Thundara. ALWAYS have Leonora ready to heal.
After the boss casts two spells you use the one he did not use to hurt
him. Example: Boss casts Fira and Blizzara, Palom casts Thundara.
After you damage him he will change his weakness so you have to start
again. Just be careful not to attack him directly or using a non-
elemental spell. If you do he will use Venom Breath and Leech which
will restore his HP.
When you beat the boss you will be able to grab the chest. The
contents are random so just be happy with what you get. And if you
are not happy just redo the dungeon and beat the boss again. The
chest will reset every time you enter.
Edge's Tale (ffet) Level Cap 40
Eblan (eteb)
You will start off fighting against four Ninjas. Just use the
Ninjutsu Flood and twice and that should be all. Edge will then start
talking to the four that he thoroughly destroyed and then one of them
will notice something. Edge will look and see two moons in the sky.
Then we will go to the title screen. Now we will go to the throne
room where Seneschal is acting crazy. Edge will tell him to calm down
and then he will leave to see what is happening. Don't forget that
all of your settings are reset. Once again we get a king with no
money. What kind of world is this! Anyway there is nothing on this
floor except the armor and weapon shops so just head down. On this
floor we have the Inn and the item shops. To the left is a save point
so make good use of it. DON'T FORGET TO SAVE IN ANOTHER SAVE FILE.
YOU WILL NEED THE OTHER SAVE FLIES FOR ANOTHER STORY. One thing to do
before continuing is to completely unequip Edge. We are about to
lose him for a bit and it would not do to let that nice equipment go
to waste. Head to where all the pillars are and head down to reach
the outside of the castle. Now we get to raid the towers. Start by
heading left to the tower. From where you start take two steps back
toward the door. From there head right through a secret passage.
This will get you a chest with a ether. Now go back and go up the
stairs. There is nothing in the pots so just go to the left and when
you hit the wall go down. This takes you to the other chest
containing a Phoenix down. Head back and leave the tower and go to
the right one. Once in the right tower head behind the column in the
upper left corner and go left. This takes you to a chest with Eye
drops in it. Go back and go up the stairs. Go right and push the
button to open the door. Go down against the wall to get around the
stairs. The two chests to your left have a ether and potion. There
is nothing in the pots so get the chest on the left with an antidote.
Go down the stairs, grabbing the maiden's kiss on the way and go back
up to get the phoenix down. Now head out of the tower and go to where
the double wooden doors are that lead into the castle. Make sure the
Edge is unequipped and head down. As he tries to leave the four
ninjas will stop him and insist that they be the ones to go. Edge
will agree on the condition that they return alive no matter what.
You will now have a choice on which ninja you want to play as first.
I will choose the order of Izayoi, Tsukinowa, Zangetsu, and Gekkou.
Whatever order you want to do is up to you.
---Izayoi--- (etiz)
You will start out as a disguised Epopt Trainee. After the
talking you will have control of Izayoi. Go ahead and equip her with
the armor that you got from Edge. The only thing of interest in this
city is talking to Palom in front of the Item shop. When you are
ready head to the inn and go right to find a stairway into the water.
To continue just stand still until one of the girls get sick. She
will start to think about a tower built for training. If you played
the previous story you know what tower she is talking about. Before
we go to the tower head through the waterway to the left and continue
to the back of the town. At the back of town is a staircase leading
onto dry ground. Head left through the trees and you will find a
grassy area with chest's containing a potion, ether, 300 gil, and a
hi-potion. Now head out of the town and go to the chocobo forest
north of town. Grab one of the Chocobos and head south to the tower.
Tower of Trials outside
Head right and go in the door to find a magic pot and three
chests with a potion, Bronze Breastplate, and ether. With that magic
pot right here this is a good place to level up a bit. When you are
ready head to the right and head up the ladder. Keep following the
path and you will come to a second door. Go inside and get the six
chests with a ether, crossbow, bronze hourglass, potion, ice arrows,
and a tent. Head up the stairs and get the eye drops and go down out
the door. Go right and continue following the path and you will find
a door with a save point and a chest with a thorn whip. Save and head
back out and go right up the ladder. At the top of the ladder you
will have a fight with a zu. Just attack it and heal when necessary
and you will win easily. She will then look and see the tower of
Babil glowing and say she has to get back to Eblan. She will then see
a ship and decide to get a ride on it. Now you have to head back
down. When you get to the ship make sure that you unequip the best
armor from her. You can leave the weapons on her. When you get to
the ship there will be a scene where she basically bribes the sailors
to let her on. After a bit of talking her story will end.
---Tsukinowa--- (etts)
You start out in Mysidia this time under the guise of a boy named
Lapin. After a bit of lecturing from the professor Porom will come
out and tell him to go to the Hall of Prayer. The professor will
leave and after Porom leaves you will have control. First off equip
him with the best armor that you have. There is nothing in the town
so go right and talk to the boy in the red shirt and let him cast toad
on you. Now follow the path in the center of town and go until you
see a mage guarding the door. Talk to him and he will run away. Go
inside and listen to the meeting. When it is done go back to the boy
and have him turn you back to normal. Now go back inside the Hall and
talk to the black mage in the middle of the group. After talking he
will give you a boomerang. Now head outside of the town by going down
from the Hall. Our destination is the Mount Ordeals to the east of
the town. Just follow the winding path and you will end up at a
forest. You can't miss the mountain so just go inside
Mount Ordeals Entrance

When you enter the mountain Tsukinowa will throw off his
disguise. Now you will be able to get into fights. If you want to
level up a bit, which I suggest you do, then stay near the entrance
and wander around. When you need to heal head outside and look for a
little circular forest inside the forest south of the mountain. This
is a Chocobo forest and will allow you to heal your MP when needed.
When ready start following the path up the mountain. Go right before
you go up the stairs to get a chest with a monster in it. Almost all
of the chests on this mountain have a monster in it. They aren't too
tough so just whack them until they die. This chest will give you a
hi-potion. Head up the stairs and go right for another monster chest
with a tent. Go left and up the stairs to find the door to the next
area
Mount Ordeals Trail

Go up the stairs and grab the chest with a monster and a hi-
potion. Head right and try to go up the slope. As you do you will
see Porom and she will continue through the mountain. Go up and get
the chest that contains a Green Beret and head through the door.
Mount Ordeals Crossing
Head to the left past the slope and go up the stairs for a chest
with a Metal Boomerang. Go ahead and equip it and go back to the
slope we passed and go up. Keep following the path and you will have
another scene with Porom. Head left and go down the slope for a chest
with a ether. Go back up and go through the door to the next area.
Go right and get the hi-potion and go up and right for a save point.
Now go back and go up and cross the bridge on the left. When you
reach the other side, go get the chest with the Shinobi Gear and then
examine the little shrine. Head back across the bridge for a scene
with the tower of Babil glowing. Now you have to head back to the
bottom of the mountain. Once you get to the bottom head to the
chocobo forest and grab one of the yellow ones. Now you have to head
back to the town. When you reach the town head a little to the left
of it and when you can go no further get off the chocobo. Remember to
take the best armor off of Tsukinowa. You can leave the boomerang
equipped. Head left and you should wind up on a beach
---Zangetsu--- (etza)
This time we start off in the Dwarf castle. Once the scene is
done one thing is very obvious. Zangetsu really needed to study up on
Dwarven customs. Head to the right and go up the stairs. Now head
between the two counters and enter the pub. Talk to everyone and you
will find out our next destination is the top of the castle. Now head
out of the pub and take the stairs in the upper left corner of the
room. Search the pots in this room for an Emergency exit. Now go to
the far left side of the room and buy any items you might need. When
you are ready go to the stairs in the lower left corner to go to the
tower. Go above the dwarf and get the chest with the Shuriken. Now
head down and leave the tower. Go right into the other tower and get
the chest with the potion. Now head out of the tower and go left
until you find the stairs. Go up and a scene will occur where
Zangetsu will jump off the castle. And those guards complained about
his jumping ability. Apparently it is not the jumping that is the
problem, it's the landing.
Dwarven Mine Path

Head down the stairs for a save point. Head back up and cross
the bridge on the left and grab the chest with the potion. Keep
heading left, go down the stairs, and get the chest with a Zeus's
Wrath. Keep going until you have a choice between going up the stairs
or down the stairs. Go up and get the Maiden's Kiss and continue up
to get the chest with the Remedy. Head back down and take the stairs
on the left going down. Get the cottage and continue left for a chest
with a Javelin. Equip it and head back to the left and go to the
chest with the Kiss in it. Go down two stairs and take the path
between the stairs and follow the path toward the back of the cavern.
You will find a chest with a Shinobi gear. Head up under the bridge
and go left to a chest with a Heavenly Wrath. Go all the way back to
where this path started and go up the stairs on the right. Grab the
potion from the chest and go up the stairs on the right. You will now
be at an intersection with three ways to go. You can go up, straight
down, or down and right. Take the two paths that go down to get two
chests with a ether and a hi-potion. Now take the path going up and
you will find another intersection. Go up and grab the ether and go
back down and take the other path. When you reach the next split go
up and grab the Trident. Equip it and go back and go up the stairs on
the right. At the top of the stairs go down across the bridge for a
Headband. Go back up and go left ignoring the stairs leading up to
find a magic pot. Level up a little using the pot to heal. When you
are ready take the best armor off him and head up the stairs. Just
use your spear and the enemy should fall quickly.
---Gekkou--- (etge)
Impact Crater Floor
Gekkou will start off at the meteor near Fabul. Soon after the
scene will change showing some monks from Fabul confronting the
annoying girl. Two of them will attack her and get beat badly. She
will run off and the monks will chase after her. Save the game at the
point nearby and equip him with the armor. Head down and open the
chest with Potion and then hop on the mound of dirt to the right to go
across the rocks. Head up and talk to the two fallen monks. Then hop
up on the mound and get the chest with a Crescent Axe. Equip it and
head to the left to the next area
Head left to the mound and take the other mound right next to you
for a chest with a Maiden's Kiss. Head back down and go left until
you see a mound right next to a chest. Grab the chest with a Kenpo Gi
and step on the mound. Go left and get the chest with the Steel
Headplate and hop down using the mound. Head right and up and there
will be another scene with the monks and girl moving away. Head to
the left and use the mound to get to the next level. Get the Shuriken
from the chest and go right to the mound that will take you to the
next area.
Take the mound to the left at the top of the slope and it will
lead to a chest with a hi-potion. Take the mound up and go right and
up the slope to get the other chest with a power armlet. Hop on the
mound to the right and head left ignoring the mound right next to you
and the mound above you and take the mound leading down. Here there
are two mounds so take one on the left which leads to the save point.
Take the mound directly above you and it will lead to the chest with a
ether in it. Go right and take the mound to the right. This will put
you back down where there are three mounds to choose from. Take the
one on the right and go up the hill to get the chest with the tent in
it. Go to the left and get on the mound and go up the ramp to the
left. Go right and take the mound to the next area.

Go to the left and get the chest with Shuriken and head toward
the mound on the left. Go straight up and get the chest with the hi-
potion. Before you do anything else take the best equipment, except
his axe, off of Gekkou and then head right and take the mound up.
Head left and you will see a confrontation between the remaining monks
and the girl. Gekkou will whisper that they should not fight her and
will watch as they do it any way. One of the monks will mention honor
and Gekkou will think about his own honor. You will then have a
choice. If you choose to jump in Gekkou will fight the Mysterious
Girl and she will immediately cast Meteor and kill him, preventing you
from using him in later parts of the game. If you choose to stay out
of it Gekkou will watch the monks die and then bury the five of them
at the bottom of the crater. He will then make his way to back to
Eblan.
---Edge---
Edge will be lying in his bed wondering about his moon and
feeling something is wrong will jump out of a hole in his wall. He
will see that the Tower of Babil is back online and leave the castle.
Don't forget to reequip Edge because if you have listened to me he
will have no armor. If you want to fight around a little bit go ahead
but when you are ready head west from the castle to find the Cave of
Eblan.
Cave of Eblan (etce)
---Tail Alert---
During the New Moon phase you can find the Behemoth. After fighting
this monster you may find a Purple Tail which has uses in the later tales.
Cave of Eblan 1st floor

Go down one step and go right through the secret passages
grabbing the hi-potion and ether. Go down and at the intersection go
down for a chest with a cottage. Go back up and go left and go up the
stairs on the left for a chest with mythril gloves in it. Head back
down and cross the bridge and go to the left. At the intersection go
up a bit to a chest with a silver breastplate. Head back down and go
to the left to find the stairs to the next area.

500 gil in it. Head up from here to find the stairs to the next area.
Path to Tower of Babil

Grab the chest with the hi-potion and keep following the path up
to another chest with a Manji Shuriken. Below the stairs you will an
indent in the wall. Head down through the spot and you will find a
chest with a hi-potion. Head back through the path and go up and take
the stairs to the next area.
Head up toward the upper left corner of the room for an Emergency
exit. Head back down and go to the right a little bit. You will have
a choice between up and down. Go up and get the echo herbs from the
chest and head down. There is a secret passage along the right wall
that will lead to a chest with an dry ether. Go back through and head
down to the next area.
Go down two steps and head right to another secret passage
leading to two chests with a hi-potion and a silver apple. Go back
through and grab the three chests with a ether, hi-potion, and phoenix
down. Head down and take a left for a chest with a cottage. Go back
to the right for three chests with a hi-potion, remedy, and potion.
Keep heading up to the next area.
Go left and get the chest with a Kogarasu in it. Give it to Edge
and head back right and go in the door. In here is a save point and a
secret passage in the upper right corner of the room leading to a Soma
drop. Save and head back out of the room. Head up and find the
secret passage in the left wall after Edge is done thinking. It
should be in the lower left corner of this little rectangle area. It
will lead to a chest with a cottage. Now head up the stairs into the
tower of Babil.
Tower of Babil (ettb)
Tower of Babil 1st floor
Head up and you will see a blue circle on the right that will
warp you outside of the cave. Go up to the top of the stairs and Edge
will ninja his way into the tower. Head up and left to get the chest
with a hi-potion. Head back down and go around to the left and you
will get into a fight.
MINI BOSS FIGHT: 2 Belphegor
Before you can even get a turn Tsukinowa will appear and join in
the fight. This will allow a band between Edge and Tsukinowa using
Attack for both of them. Just watch out for their tornado attack
which will reduce your HP to single digits
After the fight Tsukinowa will join the team. His HP and MP will
be restored to full. Keep going around the path and you will find a
chest with a Great Bow. Keep going around and you will find a
walkway. At the end of a walkway there will be another fight.
MINI BOSS FIGHT: 2 Flamehounds

Like before you will gain a new character before you can do too
much damage. This time Izayoi will help you. And like before you
will have a chance to use a new band, this time between Edge using
Attack and Izayoi using Ninjutsu. Watch out for their Blaze attack
because it can do massive damage. Just be careful not to die and you
should win.
After the fight Izayoi will join the team. This time it will be
here HP and MP restored. Go up and grab the chest with the Battle
Axe. Keep going right, skipping the door, and you will find another
chest with a ether in it. Go back and enter the door to the next
floor.

Go left and get the Manji Shuriken and head around to the right.
The first time you head left you will have another fight.
MINI BOSS FIGHT: 3 Proto Clockworks

Now it is time for the third member of our ninja team to return.
This time it Zangetsu who returns. There are two new band attack you
can use this time. The first one is using Edge's Ninjutsu and
Zangetsu's Human Kite attack. The other one is between Tsukinowa and
Zangetsu both using Ninjutsu. Just wail on them and they should die
easily.
Now Zangetsu will join the team with full HP and MP. Keep going
to the left and you will come to an intersection. Head down and get
the chest with the Partisan in it. Give it to Zangetsu and head back
up and continue heading left. Before you reach the left hand wall you
will have one more fight.
MINI BOSS FIGHT: 2 Frostbeasts

This will be the last fight if you did not attack the girl in
Gekkou's story. If you did attack her he will not join the team due
to the fact that he is dead. When he joins you will have four bands
that you can use. Band one is between Gekkou using Ninjutsu and
Izayoi using Illusions. The second band is between Edge using
Ninjutsu and Gekkou using Shuriken. The third band is between the
four apprentices using Ninjutsu. The final band is between all five
of them having Edge use Mug, Izayoi using Illusions, Tuskionwa using
Steal, Gekkou Using Shuriken, and Zangetsu using Human Kite. Just do
whatever you think is important and they should fall quickly.
Now the team is complete. Keep following the path until you
reach the door to the next area and a chest with a hi-potion. Now go
to the next area.

tent in it. Keep heading to the left and you will find a door to the
next floor.

Head right and follow the winding path and skip the bridge and
you will find two doors. The first door has a save point and another
one of the panels that warps you out of the dungeon. Change the moon
to a phase that suits you, I suggest new moon because it will not
hinder any of your abilities. When you are ready head out of the save
room and go right and through the other door

Just head toward the next door
Tower of Babil 5th

A scene will take place where Gekkou will recognize the girl.
When you have control again head right and down and get the chest with
the chain whip. Head back to the door and go down the bridge. Head
left past the first bridge and you will see three other bridges. The
one in the middle has a chest with a hi-potion. Go back to the bridge
we passed and go up it. As you try to go up it Edge's parents will
warn him about fighting this enemy. Once they disappear head up and
talk to the girl.
BOSS FIGHT: Mysterious Girl/ Ifrit
Just use your regular attacks on the girl and eventually she will
summon Ifrit to fight you. You can't hurt him so just keep attacking
the girl. Ifrit will use fire based attacks on you like Firaga on
you. Just keep yourself healed while attacking the girl. Eventually
Ifrit will use Hellfire and end the fight.
The ninjas will try to run away and the girl will block their
path. Edge will lead them backwards into the crystal chamber. Edge
will comment on how nothing has changed here and he will jump into a
pit trap.
Yes we fell down three stories. Unequip the four apprentices
because they will not need their armor. All of the fights in here
will be against Ifrit. Run from them all because there is no way to
beat him. Head up and get the chest with an ether. Go down and you
will find the door to the next area
Head up, find the chest with the phoenix down, and keep going
through the door to the next area
Head down until you reach a split in the path. Go right and get
the chest with the elixir in it. That is nice, huh? Now head back to
the intersection and go left. Once you go in the door you will get a
flashback to when the original team first came here. You will switch
back to current times. The ninjas will be cornered by the girl. Edge
will refuse to give up and decide to jump. The others follow and the
girl will be stunned by their quick choice to jump to their death.
Suddenly the Falcon will fly below catching the ninjas as they fall.
Edge will make a corny remark to Rydia and everybody will start
talking. Suddenly Edge will notice the Man in Black and the story
will end.
Edge's Challenge Dungeon (etcd)
The bunny is inside the Eblan Castle at the inn. This challenge
dungeon is a bit different from the others. You will be graded on how
fast you can get to the end of the dungeon. The quicker you are the
better item you will get. No matter what you do the Timer will always
be running. Try to memorize the maps so you can get through quickly.
There is no shame in running away from enemies to get a low time.
Also you can use an emergency exit to get out if you feel that you are
in danger.
Head down and grab the chest below you. Then go right and up for
another chest. Head down and follow the path to a chest then continue
to the stairs to the next floor.
This is exactly like the Ancient Waterway in Ceodore's Tale.
Head down and you will have the choice between two secret paths. If
you go right you will have to fight a strong enemy. Go down for a
treasure chest. Head down from the treasure chest for a path leading
down for another treasure chest at the top of some stairs. Take one
step down from the chest and go to the right. Follow the path and in
the next room the path is in the bottom right corner. Head straight
up for another chest. Head up and you will see a bunch of rocks
spaced out on the right wall. Step in between the two rocks for
forced fight. After the fight go right and up for the stairs. If you
want to skip this fight go down to the previous secret path and go
right. Follow the path to the upper right corner for the stairs.
Go right and follow the path to the upper left corner for a
chest. Go right and up the stairs then go right again for a chest.
Go down and go down the next two stairs and you will have to fight one
forced encounter to reach a chest. Go back and go right and follow
the path to the stairs
If you go to the left you can find a teleporter out of the
dungeon. If you go right you can find a panel that heals your HP and
MP. Go up the middle and you will have to fight a forced encounter.
Go up the stairs and grab the chest. Now go to the back of the room
and go through the door.
Challenge Dungeon Last Floor

Go up the stairs in front of you for a forced encounter. Kill it
and grab the chest. You will now be teleported out of the dungeon.
If you want to get more treasures you will have to go through the
entire dungeon again.
Porom's Tale (ffpo) Level Cap 40
Mysidia (pomy)
You will start out in Mysidia in the Hall of Prayers. The Elder
will ask where Palom is and Porom will go fetch him. Palom will get
angry and run off. You will now have control of Porom. Don't forget
to change your settings. Head to the bottom left corner of the town
and you will find him hiding in some bushes. Talk to him and he will
run off. Now go to the right and he will be in front of the item
shop. Talk to him and he will run off again. This time go around to
the back of the item shop and he will be there. Talk to him one more
time and he will agree to come back. After some talking with the
elder you will go to the title screen. You then switch to a scene on
a boat with Palom and Porom heading to Kaipo. Porom will lecture
Palom and then the ship will arrive at the destination. You will now
have control of both of the twins. Don't forget to organize their
magic. Before you move much farther don't forget to save. DON'T
FORGET TO SAVE IN ANOTHER SAVE FILE. YOU WILL NEED THE OTHER SAVE
FLIES FOR ANOTHER STORY The village of Kaipo if directly to your left.
Once you are inside the city head toward the back where two tombs are.
Examine them for a quick scene. Go across the bridge to the right and
in the top pot is a potion. That is all there is in the village so
head out. From the village head up and a little to the right to reach
the waterway
Underground Waterway (pouw)

Waterway Entrance South
Start by heading across the bridge in front of you to find two
chests with Lightning Arrows and a crossbow. I would give those to
Porom because she can't fight well with white magic. Head back down
and go left across one bridge. Go down and you will find a chest with
a tent in it. Head up and cross the bridge. Palom will comment on
the fact that the bridge was where Tellah and Cecil first met. Head
up and cross the bridge leading to the right. Keep going and cross
the other bridge and go down the stairs into the water. Go up the
waterfalls to the left to get a chest with a Wizard's hat. Go back
down and continue to the left. You will see a big water fall right
before you go under the bridge where Tellah met Cecil. Walk up the
waterfall in the middle of it to find a secret room. Grab the hi-
potion, dry ether, and a phoenix down and head back out of the
waterfall. Now work your way back to where the stairway out of the
water is and go back to the left across the three bridges. Now head
up to find the stairs to the next area.
Underground Waterway 2nd floor

Head up across the bridge and go down into the water. Go down,
head left, and go up the stairs to get the chest with a Maiden's Kiss.
Head back into the water and go down until you reach the next stairs
out of the water. Head to the left, bypassing the bridge down and get
the chest with the ether in it. Now head back and go down the bridge
and continue to the left until you find a room. Make use of the save
point and continue north of the room. Head across the bridge and go
up for the chest with a Gaia gear. Once again give it to Porom. Head
down and go back into the water. Head to the right and go up the
stairs to find the door to the next level.
Underground waterway 3rd floor
Go down and cross the bridge. Take the bridge on the right and
collect the chests with a tent and a thunder rod. Give the rod to
Palom and go back and take the left bridge. Keep following the path
and you will find the door to the next area.

Head to the right and you will go through a secret passage.
Follow the path going up and right and you will find a chest with a
Hermes sandal's in it. Now go back to the passage and when you go
down for the first time go until you stop then go right. This will
take you out of the passage right next to the stairs. Instead of
going up them go down and get the chest with a phoenix down. Now go
up and take the stairs to the next floor.
waterway Entrance North
Head up and take the stairs on the left. Grab the two chests
containing a ether and a maiden's kiss and go back up the stairs and
cross the bridge to the right. Go down the stairs and get the two
chests with a cottage and a unicorn horn. My suggestion now would be
to level up in the cave until you are out of magic then head outside
and use a tent and go to the second half.
Underground Falls
Hop in and go for a bath.
Underground Lake 2nd floor

Head to the right and leave the water. Follow the path until you
have a choice between going up or down. Go down and grab the two
chests with the hi-potion and ether. Head back up and go left and up
to the next area
Underground Lake 1st floor

Head right across the bridge and grab the chest's with a silver
armlet and Hermes sandal. Go up and take the stairs into the water.
Go up and you will see a tentacle sticking out of the water. Approach
it for a boss fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Cooler Mammoth/4 Cooler Leach

To start this fight off have Porom cast slow on all of the
enemies. Then have her cast shell and protect (if you have them) on
the team to protect them from the spells and attacks. Then have her
heal when needed and attack the main body with the lightning arrows.
Have Palom kill all but one of the leaches with thundara and then
attack the main body with fira. If you kill all of the leaches the
main body will regenerate them. With three of the leaches gone the
fight will be a lot easier.
After the fight Palom will be happy about his victory. Porom
will hit him AGAIN and lecture him some more. The scene will switch
to many years later where Porom will have, for some reason, dyed her
hair bright pink. Porom will start talking about Palom when suddenly
Cid will arrive on his airship. The airship will then take off
without Palom on it, or so we think. The scene will switch to the
inside of the ship where Palom appears and shocks Porom. The two of
them will start to argue and then the ship will land at the land of
Mist.
Mist (pomi)
Once inside the village your destination is the house at the top
of town, but we have a few stops to make. Go down to where the
equipment shops are and head to the right. You will see a little
indent in the trees. Go in it and the secret passage will take you to
two hidden chests in the grass with 2 bomb crank. Head out of the
passage and head up until you see another grassy area. In it is a
bomb fragment. Go left and go inside the house to meet Rydia. Palom
will ask her suddenly if she would take him to the Feymarch. After
talking Rydia will join the team. Make sure that you set up Rydia's
magic. At least this time she has some summons to use. When done
head up and go into her fireplace. Head up and go to the right to get
to a room with three chests containing a silver hourglass, dry ether,
and cottage. Now head to the right and head down to another chest
with a Soma drop. Now head back to the Falcon and get on the ship.
When Cid asks if you are ready to go say yes and you will go to the
underworld and stop by the Dwarf Castle.
Dwarven Castle (podc)

Head up to the first floor and head to the right to the stairs.
From here take the stairs in the upper right corner. Grab the chest
with a hi-potion in it and go up the stairs. There is nothing on this
floor so just head up. Grab the four chests with a ether, unicorn
horn, bronze hourglass, and a tent and head back to the equipment
room. Go down the stairs in the upper left corner to the basement.
Check the pots for an echo herb, hi-potion, and a phoenix down. Now
head to the left side and go up the stairs. Check the pot to the left
of the counter for 1000 gil. Now take the stairs in the lower left
corner to the other tower. Head up the stairs to the next floor.
There is a hi-potion in the one of the pots on the very bottom so get
it and head up the stairs. In here are four chests that you have to
go through secret passages to get to. In them are a spider silk, dry
ether, cottage, and Hermes Sandals. Head back to the inn room and
take the stairs in the lower right corner to go back to the main part
of the castle. Head up to the throne room and after some talking Luca
will join the party like Cid. Head back out of the Falcon and tell
Cid you are ready to go. On the way to the Feyrnarch Luca will talk to
a very nervous Palorn. When you land you will be able to go into the
passage of the Eidolons. If you get injured in the passage you can
return to the Falcon and use the magic pot to restore your HP and MP.
Passage of the Eidolons (pope)
Passage of the Eidolons 1st floor
This floor is separated into little room which makes it easy to
navigate. Head right and up to find a chest with fire arrows. From
there head directly to the left through a secret passage. This will
give you a chest with a ether. Head back to the left and go directly
down for another chest with a hi-potion. Now head to the left and
follow the path to the next floor.
Passage of the Eidolons 2nd floor
Head to the right and take the path going to the lower right
corner for a chest with a hi-potion. Now go back and head up and at
the next intersection go left for another chest with a cottage. Now
go down and head to the right and you will find the stairs to the next
floor and a save point. Use it and head down the stairs.
Passage of the Eidolons 3rd floor
Like the first floor this is separated into little rooms. Head
one room left and down. Now go to the right into a secret passage.
Go down one more room for three chests with a Hermes sandal, sage's
surplice, and a decoy. Head back to the passage and go down. Head
right and up to find another exit from the secret passage. Head up
and to the left and you will find a chest with a dry ether. Head back
down and once again get in the secret passage. Head down to the next
room and leave it for a chest with a hi-potion in it. Head all the
way to the left from here and you will find the final chest with an
echo herbs. Now head right and up one room to a room with a grey
panel. The team will spread out and after some talking Rydia will
forbid the twins from entering the Feyrnarch. You can argue all you
want but you can't continue until you say yes. After a bit of talking
your team will be back together. Now head back to the Falcon. Before
you get back on make sure that you unequip Palorn and Rydia. When you
are ready talk to Cid to continue. When you say yes you will take off
and be taken to the present day.
Pororn will start to complain about being by herself and the elder
will show up. After some more talking the Lunar Whale will take off.
Pororn and the elder will go down stairs for a familiar scene for those
who have played Edge's tale. When the story is done you will be left
with the two rnages in front of the Hall of Prayer. Head down and left
to the weapon shops and pick up a new bow and a thing of Holy Arrows.
If you want to get armor too that is ok. Don't worry too much about
the two rnages. Our new destination is the mountain to the east of
here. Just follow the winding path and you will come to a forest that
circles a mountain. In the lower left area of the forest is a
circular forest that is home to a chocobo forest.
---Tail Alert---
If you wander around to the north of Mount Ordeals during a Waxing
Moon you may find a White Dragon. When you kill this powerful creature it
might drop a White Tail that you can use in later stories.
Mount Ordeals (porno)

Mount Ordeals Entrance
Head around the path and before you go up the stairs go to the
right and get the chest with the ether and go up the stairs. Grab the
chest with the Psycho Spiral on the right and head up the stairs on
the left to get to the door to the next area.
Mount Ordeals Trail
Head up the stairs and head to the right. You will see a ramp to
the next area and a door to the next section
Head left past the slope and you will come to stairs with a chest
with a Sage's Miter. Now head back to the slope that we passed and
head up to the next intersection. Go down and get the chest with a
Blinding Arrows and go in the door to the next area.
Mount Ordeals Summit
Head right and up to find a little bridge and stairs. Cross the
bridge and use the save point. Go back and go up the stairs and cross
the bridge to find a small shrine. Examine it to go to a room with
lots of broken mirrors. Porom will be talked to by a voice. You will
then be taken out of the room. As you try to go back across the
bridge you will be back-attacked and forced into a fight with a
buttload of undead. Thankfully you will not have to fight them
because you will be saved by Kain. Porom will then convince Kain to
come back to Mysidia with her. Save to the right and head back down
the mountain. When off the mountain go to the chocobo forest and head
back to Mysidia. Before entering the city make sure the Moon is not
in the Waning phase. When you enter you will see that the city is
under attack. Head straight forward and fight the monster in the
purple cloak.
BOSS FIGHT: Steel Golem
There are a few things to be careful of in this fight. One of
the big ones is the massive physical attacks he uses. Counter this by
having either Porom of the white mage. Also have one of them use slow
on him. His physical attacks will also cause sleep every now and
then. Just be careful of your HP and the fight should end quickly
After the fight head back out and save so you don't have to
repeat this fight. Head back in to the town and head back to the Hall
of Prayers. Once inside you will find a black mage who tells you to
go find the elder. Keep heading to the back of the crystal chamber
and you will find a door to the Prayer Dais. Go up to the stairs for
a vision of a monster and you will get in another fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Blood Eye
Once again you have a boss with powerful physical attacks. Use
slow and protect on the team using Porom and the white mage. Have
Kain use attack or jump and the black mage use one of the level two
spells. Next to his physical attacks he will have a gaze attack that
will put a status effect on one of your members. Just keep attacking
and he should fall.
After the fight Porom will take care of the Elder. The elder
will tell that the monsters came out of the Devil's Road from Baron.
After talking to the Elder Kain, WM, and BM will leave your team.
Don't worry about the armor; they will rejoin you after the story is
done. Go left and go into the crystal chamber and talk to Kain, who
is staring oddly at the crystal. Now head down and go out of the
building. Porom will go down and once again the Mysterious girl will
appear. After some talking the Elder will join you to fight her
Once again we will be thrust into a fight with the girl. And
once again it is a fight we can't win. The only thing we can do is
whack at her until she summons Ramuh to kill you. Before it attacks,
however, the elder will cast a spell to send Porom out of the fight.
After the fight Kain will appear and stop the girl from killing
Porom and the Elder. He will offer the Girl the Crystal if she will
take him to Baron to kill Cecil. Kain will jump to the Devil's Road
and the story will end.
Porom's Challenge Dungeon (pocd)
This is another timed trial. You will have 15 minutes to do

everything you can. If you run out of time you will be taken out of
the dungeon. Unfortunately the position that you start at, the
treasure chests, and the people you have to help change every time you
enter. The good thing is that the map stays the same. Here are what
you can expect from the people you rescue.
* Old men will ask you to cast a spell on them.
* Black Mages will need help killing a monster.
Young Men will ask for items
* White Mages will ask you to search for spirits and pray for
them.
When you are done go to the upper left corner and step on the
warp panel.
Challenge Dungeon Last Floor

The final chest may or may not be guarded. If it is it will be
something that is easy to kill. When you grab the chest you will be
teleported out of the dungeon. If you want a better item then come
back and try again.
Edward's Tale (ffed) Level Cap 40
---Tail Alert---
While you play through Edward's story make sure that you check
everything. While looking you might find something called a Bronze Tail or a
Silver Tail. These might also drop from some enemies at the end of the
fight. When you are in the Waterway Entrance South area you might find a
person who will trade you a Silver Tail for 5 Bronze Tails and a Gold Tail
for 5 Silver Tails. The Gold Tail has a use in later stories, the Bronze and
Silver do not.
Damcyan (edda)
The story will start off with the Chancellor demanding to see the
king. The guards will refuse to let him by and Harley will show up
and tell him that she would tell Edward what he needed. Edward will
tell her to take care of the problem and she will leave. Edward will
look at the moon and the title screen will show as well as a scene of
a falling star. Harley will ask for an investigation of the object
and she will leave. The scene will shift to nighttime and the
Chancellor will approach Edward. Edward will ask about the messenger
to Baron and about Harley's investigation and will get unpleasant
answers. After the Chancellor leaves you will have control of Edward.
Adjust your settings and you will notice for once we will have a king
with some decent pocket money. Head to the left and go up the stairs
to find Harley's room. Talk to the girl and you will be able to
enter. Go up to the table and you will be able to read Harley's
diary. Go back down to the throne room and go all the way to the
right to find more stairs. Go down to find a storage room. Grab the
chest with the spider silk and go down the stairs. Head back up the
stairs and before moving go down and follow the secret passage to a
chest with a Bomb Core. Go down the stairs and check the pot between
the counters for a potion. Now head back up to the throne room. Go
up and you will find Edward's room. Get in the bed and agree to rest.
Edward will dream about Anna and then wake up. Head all the way down
and you will find that there are people running the shops now. Buy
anything that you might need. When you are done head left and go down
to get to the outside of the castle. Go down and talk to the guard to
have him move. As you try to leave the Chancellor will appear and
question you. He will then have the three guards join you on your
little trip. You will now be able to save. DON'T FORGET TO SAVE IN
ANOTHER SAVE FILE. YOU WILL NEED THE OTHER SAVE FLIES FOR ANOTHER
STORY. Before you go to the meteor head back into the castle. Step
one spot backwards onto the sand and hug the castle wall and walk to
the right. Here you will find a treasure room. To the right of the
first set of bars is a button on the wall that will open a door. Go
through it and get the chests with hi-potion, phoenix down, and
longsword. Go back out of the wall and go to the left in front of the
bars to find a staircase. Open the six chests with phoenix down,
potion, potion, silver armlet, eye drops, and a potion and check the
pots for a potion, hi-potion, Antarctic wind. When you are ready go
to the right and you will find the meteor.
Impact Crater (edic)
Go all the way down from the entrance and you will find a magic
pot near a chest with a potion in it. This would be a good time to
level up a bit using the pot as a base. When you are ready head up
and stay on the right. At the first intersection go down and get the
chest with the hi-potion. Head back up and continue right. Head down
and at the next intersection go right to the Iron Armor. Head back
and go down. Down here you will find one of the soldiers that came
with Harley. Keep following the path down and you will find the next
area

Head down and you will reach an intersection. Go straight down
and get a chest with a Potion. Head back up and go to the right.
Follow the path until you reach an intersection that leads up and
down. Go up for a chest with a Beret and then head down. Here you
will find the second of the soldiers that Harley brought with her.
Talk to him if you wish and then head up and follow the path to the
next area
Head down and at the intersection go down on the left for a chest
with a ether in it. Now head back up and take the other way going
down and right. Here you will Harley wandering around muttering to
herself. Head up and follow the path to the save point. Keep going
and go down the slope at the intersection. Go right to get the two
chests containing a tent and stardust. Go back up and go around to
where Harley is. After talking Harley will join the team. Now that
Harley is there she and Edward can use a band combining Bardsong and
Gil Toss. Now work your way out of the meteor and go back to the
castle. When you are at the entrance there will be a scene where an
airship approaches the castle. Before we head back I am going to make
a quick stop at the nearby cave. We will be going there later but it
will just be Edward and it is easier to loot a cave with a full team.
I will cover the cave again when we come back so people will know how
to get to where we are going
Antlion's Den (edadl)
Antlion's Den 1st floor
Start off by heading to the left to find a chest with a hi-
potion. Go down the stairs on the right and under the bridge to find
another chest with a Zeus's Wrath. From here go down the stairs below
you and head to the left. While following this path you will find two
chests with an Antarctic Wind and a Spider Silk. Now head back to the
stairs we came down and head right until you see a set of double
stairs. Before we head up them there is a path on the bottom area a
little before the stairs leading up with a chest containing a tent.
Now head up the double stairs and go all the way to the back to get a
chest with a gold needle. Now head back down the double stairs and
keep going down to find the stairs to the next floor.
Antlion's Den 2nd floor
Head down from here and grab the chest with a hi-potion in it.
Now head into the door on the left and inside is a chest with a Lamia
Harp. Head back down and continue following the path and you will see
a set of stairs leading to the next floor. Take them and go left into
the door with the save point and three chests containing a Bomb
Fragment, Zeus's Wrath, and a Decoy. Now head back to the previous
floor. Go around to the left and go up the stairs above you to find a
chest with an Antarctic wind. Head back down those stairs and go
left, crossing the bridge for a chest with a hi-potion in it. Now
work your way back to the entrance and return to the castle for your
messenger. Once inside the castle head up to the throne room. When
you get there the messenger from Baron will come in. Edward will
start to ask questions and the messenger will get say that he did not
come there to chat. He will then say that nobody but Baron
investigate the meteor. A bit late for that, don't you think. The
man will turn to leave and Edward will stop him, asking why Cecil
himself did not come. The messenger will leave and Edward will make
the decision to go to Baron himself. Head back out of the castle and
go south until you see a cave. Go inside it for our next dungeon.
Underground Waterway {eduw)
Head down and take the stairs out of the water. Go across the
bridge and grab the two chests containing an Antarctic wind and Arctic
wind. Head to the left and take the door to the next area.
Head down across the bridge and go down the stairs when you come
on them. This will lead to two chests with a hi-potion and a cottage.
Head back up and go right and go down the stairs into the water.
Going up you will see an indent in the waterfall. Just follow the
path and when you reach the top go right and up the stairs to the
outside. Head down and enter the other cave.
Waterway Entrance North
Head down the stairs and grab the chests with a hi-potion and
Iron Sword in it. Head back up and go across the bridge. On the
other side you will see a staircase and a path going down to the right
of it. Take the stairs and grab the chests with a Bomb Crank and Hi-
Potion. Head back up the stairs and go down the path and you will see
the stairs to the next level.
Head down and grab the chest with the phoenix down. While
standing to the right of the chest go straight up. When you can't go
up anymore go left into a secret passage. Head up and right and you
will find a chest with 1000 Gil. Head back through the passage and
exit next to the stairs. Head to the right and go down to find the
stairs to the next floor.
Underground waterway 3rd floor
Go down and cross the two bridges going right to find two chests
with a Heavenly Wrath and Zeus's Wrath. Go back across the bridges
and go up to find the door to the next floor

Go down and into the water. Go up the stairs and before crossing
the bridge head up and get the chest with a hi-potion. Go back and
cross the bridge to find a room with a save point in it. Harley will
feel a little sick and Edward will insist that they rest for a bit.
After the scene is done save and head out of the room. Keep going
around and when you cross the bridge go left for a chest with Zeus's
Wrath. Go to the right and take the stairs into the water. When you
go up there will be an intersection between going up and left or up
and right. Go left out of the water and get the chest with a hi-
potion. Go back down and take the path on the right and go down to
the next floor.
Waterway Entrance South
Go down and skip the first stairs and go across the bridge
leading right. Again skip the stairs for bridges that go to the
right. Go down the big staircase leading into the water and go up the
waterfalls to the left of the stairs for a chest with a ether. Head
back down and go left until you see a big waterfall. Go up the middle
of the waterfall for a room with three chests containing a Coeurl
whisker, remedy, and chain whip. Go back out and go to the stairs out
of the water. Cross the bridges leading left and cross the big bridge
leading down. Before crossing the bridge go down and get the chest
with a bestiary. Head right across the bridge and go up across the
bridge near the stairs for two chests with a Silver Breastplate and a
hi-potion. Now head down and go down the stairs to get out of the
cave. On the Overworld head down and left a little bit to find the
village of Kaipo. Once you enter Harley will collapse and be taken to
a house. The person will tell you that she has desert fever and that
the only way to heal her is with a sand pearl. You can find those in
the Antlion cave on a Full moon. The boy will tell you to rest before
you leave and Edward will agree. The scene will shift to in front of
Tellah and Anna's graves. Suddenly the ghost of the two will appear
to Edward and tell him that he needs to live. Edward will ponder
their words and then morning will come and he will set off alone. So
that means you have to walk all the way back through the underground
areas, go into the Antlion den, get back out, and back through the
cave with the wimpy bard. Thankfully if you have been following my
guide you won't need to get any items. When you get to Damcyan Castle
head to the right for the Antlion's den. Before you enter the den
make sure that it is a full moon.
Antlion's Den (edad2)
Antlion's Den 1st floor
If you already got all the chests from here just skip the
familiar parts. Start off by heading to the left to find a chest with
a hi-potion. Go down the stairs on the right and under the bridge to
find another chest with a Zeus's Wrath. From here go down the stairs
below you and head to the left. While following this path you will
find two chests with an Antarctic Wind and a Spider Silk. Now head
back to the stairs we came down and head right until you see a set of
double stairs. Before we head up them there is a path on the bottom
area a little before the stairs leading up with a chest containing a
tent. Now head up the double stairs and go all the way to the back to
get a chest with a gold needle. Now head back down the double stairs
and keep going down to find the stairs to the next floor.
Antlion's Den 2nd floor
Head down from here and grab the chest with a hi-potion in it.
Now head into the door on the left and inside is a chest with a Lamia
Harp. Head back down and continue following the path and you will see
a set of stairs leading to the next floor. Take them and go left into
the door with the save point and three chests containing a Bomb
Fragment, Zeus's Wrath, and a Decoy. Now head back to the previous
floor. Go around to the left and go up the stairs above you to find a
chest with an Antarctic wind. Head back down those stairs and go
left, crossing the bridge for a chest with a hi-potion in it. Go back
across the bridge and go down the stairs right next to it. Keep going
down and you will find the stairs to the next room
Antlion's Nest
Head straight down and into the sand pit. Here you will find a
lot of antlions. Talk to one of them to find a sand pearl. Now we
have to go back to Kaipo. When you try to cross one of the bridges in
the Underground lake's first area a bunch of bandits will confront
you. You will fall and end up in the waterway south entrance. Head
out of the cave and head back to Kaipo. Once inside head to the house
in the upper right corner and go inside so you can use the sand pearl
on Harley. After she recovers Edward will collapse. The boy will
tell you that he is just tired and that he does not have the desert
fever. Edward will apologize and Harley will stutter some excuse to
him about staying up all night to watch him. Anyone else think that
Harley has a thing for Edward? The team will be reunited and we now
have a boat to catch. Head out of the town and head to the right of
the town. Head into the dock and go talk to the captain. As you sail
you will see another ship going the same way you are. Turns out it is
Yang heading to Baron as well. Eventually the other ship will slow
down and you will continue to Baron.
Baron (edba)
When you reach Baron first go into the town to raid it. Head
right, going in front of the inn and check the pot for a potion. Go
into the inn and go to the back and examine the swords on the wall to
open a door. Go through and get the chests containing an echo herbs,
Cross, and gold needle. Head up from the inn and you will see two
barrels and two pots. Search the one on top for a potion. Head up
and go up the stairs to the top of the waterfall area. Go down into
the water and head to the bottom of the water area for two chests with
a bronze hourglass and a remedy. Head back out of the water and go
down the stairs. Follow the water way down and cross the two bridges
to get on a grassy area. Head up through the arch and you will see a
bunch of trees. Take one step left from the arch and head up to the
trees. Head right to find a secret passage in the trees. Head around
to the left and you will a dark grassy area with hidden chests
containing a tent, phoenix down, and a hi-potion. Now head out of the
town and enter the castle.
Baron Castle (edbc)
At the front gate the soldiers will let you inside when they know
who you are. There is nowhere for you to go but to the throne room.
Once inside Edward will start talking to Cecil. Edward will notice
something weird and he will talk about the meteor. He will then start
asking what Cecil thinks about the return of the moon and Cecil will
not give a clear answer. After talking about Rosa and Ceodore the two
men will exchange some gifts. When Edward places his flowers he has
an odd expression that makes Cecil question him. Edward will mention
that there is nothing wrong and you will leave. Edward will say it is
time to go home so head back to the boat. Before you board the boat
make sure that you unequip the three soldiers. Back on the boat
Edward will reveal that the person that they talked to was not Cecil.
He will then reveal the two purposes of his gift. The first was to
test if Cecil was the real Cecil. The second purpose was to eavesdrop
on his conversations. You will then listen to a conversation between a
man and a woman. After a bit of talking between the two Edwards and
Harley's attention will turn to the gift that Cecil gave them. It
turns out it is the same thing that Cecil and Kain took to Mist in the
original game. After that you will see the whirlpool of Leviathan
which Yang ran into. Then the title screen will show and you will
have the chance to save.
Edward's Challenge Dungeon (edcd)
This dungeon is a bit of a pain. This entire dungeon revolves around money.
Also if you end up with more money then you came in with you cannot take it
out. Also the locations of the people wandering the halls and the contents
of treasure chests and even some monsters change with each play through.
Let's get started by going to the upper left corner of Kaipo. Talk to the
rabbit and get started.
There are ten ways to make money in this dungeon. Five of them are to
find a specific item and sell them to a person in the dungeon. These items
are a Poet's Notebook, a Gil Bird Egg, a Whisperweed Seed, a Bard's Lyre, and
an Adamantine Pig. As a note you must talk to the pub owner to be able to
take the pig with you. These five ways are guaranteed to give you a good
amount of money. The next three ways are a bit more risky. Wandering around
the dungeon are a man who asks you for 10,000 gil and a woman who asks for
5,000. If you give them the money they will leave after you exit the area
and reappear somewhere else in the dungeon. Remember that there is a chance
that they will not pay you back and you will end up losing money. The other
risky way is to go to the Chocobo room and talk to all of them. Some will
have money on them and others will take it away. The final two ways to make
money are the ones that we are familiar with, killing monsters and looting
the dungeon. When you are looting the dungeon make sure that you check
EVERYTHING. Some items will be hidden inside the tables and armor in the
rooms. Now I will give you a general description of the dungeon.
Challenge Dungeon 1st floor/Basement.
After you exit the hallway you will be in a big room with eight exits
in it. There are three doors on the north wall, two stairs leading down on
each of the side walls and the stairs in the middle of the room lead to the
next floor. The bottom set of stairs on the left side are connected to the
top set of stairs on the right side. The top set of stairs on the right side
lead to a room with a boss in it. There is a secret path on the left wall of
this room that leads to a chest so make sure to get it. Back in the main
room the bottom set of stairs on the right wall leads to a treasure room so
loot it. Now we go to the north wall. The door on the left leads to an old
man who will ask for the Poet's Notebook. The one in the middle leads to the
person who will buy the Gil Bird's Egg and a woman who will sell you items.
The door on the right will lead to the man who will buy the Whisperweed Seed.
Now go back to the main room and take the center stairs to the next floor.
Once again we have multiple exits. On the first floor before you go
up the stairs in front of you there are two exits under the floor on each
side of the stairs. Look for the weird break in the shadows to find where
they are. Both of these lead in a circle and also lead to the third floor.
If you take the one on the right it takes you to a room with a bunch of
shelves. The one on the left leads to a room with a person who buys the
Bard's Lyre from you and another sales person. Past each of these rooms is a
corridor and in the middle of it is a door going down which leads to the
third floor. On the upper section of the main floor are four exits. The one
on in bottom right and left corners are elevators that will take you in
between the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th floors for 1000 gil a trip. Right now you can
only use the one on the bottom right, the other one is at the 4th floor. Now
for the two doors on the north wall. The door on the left leads to a series
of creatures that will charge you S00 gil to pass. There may or may not be
anything in here so enter at your own risk. If you choose to go to the back
make sure that you have done everything else in the castle because if you
leave the room and decide to come back then all of the guards will come back.
The door on the right leads to a small room with a robed figure in it.
This is a very short floor. On the left side of the screen are two
doors. The one on the top is the elevator and the one on the bottom leads to
a boss you will have to pay some money to fight. In the middle of the screen
is a door on the top that will take you to the second floor. On the right
are two more doors. The one on the top is the other elevator and the one on
the bottom will take you to the Chocobos.

This is an even shorter floor. Obviously the doors on the right and
left are the elevators. There are two doors in the middle. The one on the
bottom will lead to a pup where you can sell the Adamantine Pig. The door on
the top will to a room with at least one boss in it. Past this room is the
final room in the dungeon. In here are five chests. In order to open a
chest you must pay the price. The prices range from 10,000 to S0,000. If
you have the money you can open as many chests as you want. Behind the
chests is the exit to the dungeon
Kain's Tale (ffka) Level Cap S0

Before you can even begin the story you will have the option of
importing your info from Ceodore's tale. If you do you will begin
with all your levels, money, and equipment.
Mount Ordeals (kamo)

You will start out as Kain on Mount Ordeals. Starts by heading
down the stairs and at the intersection go left and get the chest with
the Antarctic Wind. Head back to the right and go through the door to
the next floor.
Mount Ordeals Trail
Just follow the path down to the next area.
Mount Ordeals
Head down the path grabbing the chests with the Mythril Gloves
and cottage. When you get to the bottom Kain will not want to leave
the mountain. A voice will then talk to you and you will have to head
back to where you started.

From where you started go left. At the intersection go down for
a chest with a Mythril Armor and then head through the door to the
next floor.
Mount Ordeals Summit
Head right and up and you will find a staircase and a bridge. Go
across the bridge and use the save point. DON'T FORGET TO SAVE IN
ANOTHER SAVE FILE. YOU WILL NEED THE OTHER SAVE FLIES FOR ANOTHER
STORY. Head up the stairs and across the bridge and you will see a
little monument. Talk to the thing in the middle and it will take you
to a room filled with mirrors. After some talking another Kain will
come out of the mirror and attack you. You will then go to the title
screen and Kain will be right above the save point. He will hear
someone yelling and go to where the monument is. You will see people
being attacked and will jump in and save them. The scene will then
switch to Mysidia where Kain will make a deal with the Mysterious
Girl. After talking you will end up in the Devil's road.
Devil's Road (kadr)

Devil's Road 1st half
Go up and talk to the girl and step on the portal. This time
when you go through there is only one path and the poison floor will
not hurt you. Head up to the top of the area and head left through a
wall to a chest with a Mythril Sword. Head back through and take the
portal on the right. Keep going and take the next four portals. Go
to the upper left corner of this small room and take the secret
passage on the left to a chest with a Decoy. Go back and take the
portal. Go down and take the chest with a hi-potion. Head directly
left and get through the secret passage to get to a chest with a
mythril shield. Go back through and take the portal to the next area.
Here grab the three chests with a bronze hourglass, mythril helm, and
Zeus's Wrath. Now go into the portal to the next area. Keep going
through the next few portals and you will see a portal right below
you. Do not take it because it will lead you to the beginning of the
maze. Instead head to the right and talk to the girl once more. Hop
on the portal and you will reach a save point.
Devil's road 2nd Half
From the save point head left to the next panel. In this room
there are a lot of panels that turn solid when you step on them and
send you in a certain direction. Just follow these directions at the
intersections and you will reach the end. Don't worry there are no
treasures in this room. Here are the directions from the first
intersection, up, panel will send you right, have to go up, up to the
top of the room, next panel will send you left, left, panel sends you
left, down, left, panel sends you left, down, panel sends you left,
down, panel sends you left, left, have to go up, panel sends you up,
up, and you should be in Baron.
Baron (kaba)
Now we get to look for treasure in the town. Head for the front
of town and go towards the inn. To the right of the entrance is a pot
with a hi-potion. Now go into the inn and head for the back of the
building. Talk to a pair of crossed swords on the wall to open a door
leading to a ether, gold needle, and a unicorn horn. Now head out of
the inn and go towards the back of the town. In one of the barrels is
a potion. Now head up, cross the bridge, and go up the stairs. You
will see a stairway into the water so take it and go all the way to
the end. In this area you will find hidden chests containing an
phoenix down and a hi-potion. Now head back out of the water and work
your way to the far right hand side of the city. Head up through an
archway and you will see a man in an area surrounded by trees. Take
one step to the left after standing in front of the man and head
directly up until the trees stop you. Head to the right into a secret
passage which will lead to a hidden area on the left side of town.
Wander around this area and you will find hidden chests holding a
tent, phoenix down, and spider silk. That is all for the town of
Baron so head outside. Before you enter the castle make sure you
unequip Kain. When you are ready head inside.
Baron Castle (kabc)

Kain will be taken to the inner part of the castle. Head to the
right, go up, and press the button on the wall. This will open a door
to three chests with a x-potion, red fang, and remedy. Head down and
right and take the stairs going to the next area. Go down and past
the save point. Head around and go into the east tower. Grab the
three chests with a hi-potion, bronze hourglass, and a phoenix down.
Take the stairs on the left and check the pot on the far right and get
the remedy then head back up the stairs. Before you move get the
chest with the Hermes sandals and head up the stairs on the right.
Check the pots for an echo herbs and a bacchus's wine. Check the
chests for a hi-potion and heavenly wrath then take the stair to the
next floor. Open the three chests for a white fang, x-potion, and a
cottage then head back to the main part of the castle. Now head
straight up and enter the throne room. It turns out Cecil is not in
the throne room. The mysterious girl will tell Kain that if he wants
to kill Cecil he will have to get the Wind Crystal from Fabul and the
Fire Crystal from Damcyan. Kain will agree and the girl will have a
airship wait for you outside. Go down, talk to the soldier, head
outside, and board the airship and talk to the captain.
Mist (kami)
When you say yes you will take off and the scene will change to
Ceodore and the Hooded Man in the village of mist. The two of them
will talk about how the mountain to the east of the village has been
caved in. Head outside to the left and save. Don't forget to equip
the best armor on Ceo and the second best on the HM. Once inside
there are a few things that we need to do. First go down until you
see the armor and weapon shops. To the right of the shop you will see
an indention in the trees. Go into it to find a secret passage
leading to a Heavenly Wrath and Arctic Wind. Head back out of the
passage and head up until you see another dark grassy area. In here
is a chest with a Bomb Crank. Now head left and talk to the grave for
a little scene. Then head inside the house to the left of the grave.
Once inside go into the fireplace and go to the right to find a secret
passage. At the end are three chests with a potion, hi-potion, and a
phoenix down. Before you go left go right through another secret
passage that leads to a Blood Sword. Now that we are done raiding the
town exit out of the east exit to get to the next area.
Mist Cliff (kamc)

Mist Cliff: Mist side
After the HM and Ceo talk a little you will be placed in front of
a weird looking section of the wall. This is the area that you have
to climb up at. Go up and you will reach an intersection. Take the
one on the right and go immediately down the other path for two chests
with a hi-potion and a bone wrist. Head back up and take the other
path that we skipped. Keep going up to reach the next area
First off you will see two paths to take. Take the one on the
left leading to a chest with a cottage then take the path on the
right. At the next intersection you will see a lot of paths. Go up
the first path you come to and go to the right. There will be three
paths to choose from. Take the one on the right and it will lead to a
chest with a Gaia drum. Head back up and take the path leading up.
Keep following the path and you will reach the next area.
Follow the path and you will reach another intersection with a
path leading up and one going right. Take the one on the right and it
will lead to a chest with a sleep blade. Now head back up and go up
to the Precipice. There is a save point here so make use of it. When
you are ready head up and go between the two rocks to the next area.
Mist Cliff: Kaipo Side
Head down the path and as you try to go sideways Ceo will slip
and fall. The HM will ask if he is ok and Ceo will say yes. Now we
have to get to him. Keep heading down and you will reach the next
area.
Keep going down and you will reach an intersection with three
ways to go. Take the one going up on the left and you will see two
more paths to take. Go up for a chest with a ether and go back down
and go down on the left and grab the chest with a Hermes Sandals. Go
down on and go up on the right to get back to the first intersection.
Head down on the right to reach yet another intersection. Down on the
left you will see Ceo, but before we get him go up the path on the
right to a chest with a Flame Shield. Now head back down and get Ceo.
Head to the left and go to the next area.
Kaipo (kaka)
Just keep following the path and you will reach the end. After a
bit of rest you will see the Red Wings flying over you. Ceo will
think they are after them but HM will say that it looks like they are
after Damcyan. Our next destination will be to go to Kaipo. The
scene will switch to Kain who will think back to when he was on Mount
Ordeals fighting against himself. You can't win this fight so just
attack. After the scene Kain will show that he already has Fabul's
crystal. Now we go back to Ceo. Head up to the desert and go right
to find the desert city of Kaipo. Once inside the HM will tell you to
rest and Ceo will agree. Before we rest go to the right and up to
find a couple of pots. Check the top one for a potion. If you want
to check the two graves at the top of town. Head down from the graves
and go into the inn to rest. While resting you will be attacked by
guards. Once again this scene looks very familiar.
MINI BOSS FIGHT: 3 Zombie Infantry

The three of them have strong attack power. One way to tackle
this is to use the band for the two of them. If you are strong enough
it should kill them in one shot
After the fight you will find your destination is the cave to the
north.
Underground Waterway {kauw)
waterway Entrance South
Start by heading across the bridge in front of you to find two
chests with hi-potion and an ice shield. Head back down and go left
across one bridge. Go down and you will find a chest with a maiden's
kiss in it. Head up and cross the bridge. Cross the bridge leading
to the right. Keep going and cross the other bridge and go down the
stairs into the water. Go up the waterfalls to the left to get a
chest with a x-potion. Go back down and continue to the left. You
will see a big water fall right before the big bridge. Walk up the
waterfall in the middle of it to find a secret room. Grab the silent
bell, spider silk, and ether and head back out of the waterfall. Now
work your way back to where the stairway out of the water is and go
back to the left across the three bridges. Now head up to find the
stairs to the next area.
Head up across the bridge and go down into the water. Go down,
head left, and go up the stairs to get the chest with a spider silk.
Head back into the water and go down until you reach the next stairs
out of the water. Head to the left, bypassing the bridge down and get
the chest with the hi-potion in it. Now head back and go down the
bridge and continue to the left until you find a room. When you enter
HM will insist that you rest here. The scene will then switch back to
Kain. He has reached Damcyan and is ready to take the crystal. Head
straight up to the throne room and switch back to Ceo. Save and head
up and out of the room. Head across the bridge and go up for the
chest with a mythril golem in it. Use protect to weaken the damage
taken and just beat him up. When you win you will get an Icebrand.
Head down and go back into the water. Head to the right and go up the
stairs to find the door to the next level.
Underground Waterway 3rd floor
Go down and cross the bridge. Take the bridge on the right and
collect the chests with a Zeus's Wrath and a Flame Mail. Go back and
take the left bridge. Keep following the path and you will find the
door to the next area.
Underground waterway 2nd floor

Head to the right and you will go through a secret passage.
Follow the path going up and right and you will find a chest with a
remedy in it. Now go back to the passage and when you go down for the
first time go until you stop then go right. This will take you out of
the passage right next to the stairs. Instead of going up them go
down and get the chest with a hi-potion. Now go up and take the
Waterway Entrance North
Head up and take the stairs on the left. Grab the two chests
containing a tent and Bacchus's wine and go back up the stairs and
cross the bridge to the right. Go down the stairs and get the two
chests with a phoenix down and dry ether. Now head back up and take
the stairs out of the cave. The scene will then switch back to Kain.
He will demand the Crystal and Edward will refuse. Rosa will show up
and try to get Kain to stop. Now we go back to Ceo. Make sure to use
a tent before entering the cave to change the moon to the best phase
for you for a boss fight
Underground Falls
Hop in and go for a bath. Back to Kain and Rosa will ask if he
is being controlled. Kain will deny it and claim that he will kill
Cecil and Rosa will be his. Suddenly the soldiers that came with Kain
will enter and surround Edward and Rosa. Suddenly Edward will open a
box and release bombs that will destroy his soldiers. Kain will then
attack the two of them. You can't hurt Rosa so just focus on Edward.
As you fight Rosa will protest and you will ignore her. Keep fighting
and Edward will fall. The scene will then switch back to Ceo.

Head to the right and leave the water. Follow the path until you
have a choice between going up or down. Go down and grab the two
chests with the Heavenly Wrath and a potion. Head back up and go left
and up to the next area

Head right across the bridge and grab the chests with a phoenix
down and a hi-potion. Go up and take the stairs into the water. Go
up and you will see a indent in the waterfall. Approach it for a boss
fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Octokraken/4 octoleach

Don't worry about taking out the leaches. When they die the main
body will just regenerate them. Just focus on the main body. Have
Ceo use protect to try to diminish the damage received from the
physical attacks then just kick its butt. Also use a spider silk to
slow the boss down. You can use the Cross Slash band to deal even
more damage to the main body. Just make sure that you don't let your
health fall too low and you should be fine.
Damcyan (kada)
Head out of the waterfall and you will be walked toward the
castle. As you talk the airship will take off with Rosa on board.
Suddenly Kain's airship will be attacked. It turns out that Cid has
arrived on the Enterprise to save the day. Kain will fly off and you
will need to go into the castle. Head down one step and go to the
right while staying along the wall. You will come to a room so go
inside it. To the right of the first jail bars is a button that will
open a door in the wall. Go through and open the three chests for a
Zeus's Wrath, Antarctic Wind, and a Bomb Fragment. Go back through
the door in the wall and head to the left to find stairs leading down
to the next floor. In here open the chests for 3 hi-potions and 3
potions. Check the pots for a tent and 2 phoenix downs. Now head
back to the entrance of the castle. Now go straight up the stairs and
go to the throne room. Once there you will see Cid and Edward.
Edward will tell Ceo that Kain has taken his mother and the HM will
get angry, demanding that they go to the Enterprise right now. The
scene will then switch back and forth between Ceo and Kain until Kain
lands at Baron. If you did not unequip Kain earlier do it now! Now
go in the castle and the guards will let him through. After the scene
you will have control of Ceo and you will have Cid in the team. Go in
the castle and you will have to fight more of the zombies. Go back
outside and heal and save then head back out and go to the throne
room. As you go the scene will switch between the two until they meet
up in the room before the throne room. When the HM talks Rosa will
reveal that it is Kain who has been helping Ceodore. The two Kains
will start to fight and when Ceo tries to help him our Kain will tell
him to back off saying that this is his fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Kain

This is a two part fight. Just keep hitting him and Kain will
use a jump that will end the fight. Just make sure that you don't die
before that happens. Fake Kain will talk about how this is what he
always wanted. Ceo and Rosa will try to intervene and HM will refuse.
Now the fight starts again. One thing you might notice is that the HM
is now referred to as Kain. He has also regained his lost dragoon
powers. The first thing to do is to use a spider silk and Hermes
sandals. This will slow him down and speed you up. For the fight
just use the jump command to deal a lot of damage and use items to
heal when your HP gets low. For safety purposes don't let your HP
fall below 700. Every couple of attacks the boss will use jump to
hurt you. Just keep yourself healed and you will win easily.
After the fight there will be a flashback to the mirrored room on

Mount Ordeals, where it is shown that the fake Kain did take his
place. The false Kain will tell you that he is what Kain felt deep in
his heart. The fake Kain will then leave and replace Kain. We will
then return to the present times where Kain will accept the fact that
all the desires that made the false Kain are a part of himself. The
fake Kain will then disappear and leave the three crystals behind.
The voice from Mount Ordeals will talk to Kain. He will then
transform into a Holy Dragoon. He is now very similar to Cecil in
that he can now use White Magic. Once the scene is done the team will
gather and Rosa will join your team. When you are ready to continue
head to the throne room. When you enter the throne room Cecil and the
Mysterious Girl will be there to welcome you. Now you will go to the
title screen and the story will end. Now a new story will be open to
you and that is the Lunarian's Tale.
---Tail Alert---
Once you have all four members of the team head into the Devil's Road
during a Waning Moon and on the Mysidia side you will find a Gray Coeurl.
When you kill it you might find a Gray Tail which can be used later in the
game.
Kain's Challenge Dungeon (kacd)

The rabbit that lets you into the dungeon is on the upper level
of the inn.
Challenge Dungeon
Follow the path and go through the door to the Ancient Castle.
Go down the stairs and to the left. Go up the big stairs and go
to the left for a chest with a monster in it. When you win you will
receive the Adamantite. Head to the right and follow the path until
you reach an intersection. Go up and grab the chest with the random
item then head to the left. From here you can go two ways that each
lead to the end.
---North Path---
Go up and grab the chest with the Dry Ether. Go to the right and

a Protect Staff. Return to the door we passed and go in. Go up the
stairs in front of you and go to the next floor. Grab the chest with
the Angel Arrows and head back down. Go to the left and follow the
path to a chest with an Ice Shield. Go back to the entrance and go to

stairs above you. Go to the left of the stairs and follow the path to
a chest with Ice Armor. Go back and go up the stairs. Search the
pots for a Golden Apple. Go down the stairs and talk to the hole to
hop in it. Go down and follow the path to the intersection. Go to
the left and grab the chest with the Gold Hairpin then go back and go
up. Follow the path and go in the door. Follow the path up, go
across the bridge, and go down the stairs. Go down and you will see a
path on the same level and stairs leading down. Take the path and you
will reach a chest with an Elixir. Go down the previous stairs and
you will find a save point, door out of the dungeon, and the other
path.
For this boss fight you might want to be in the Waning moon
phase. Save the game and head up to a hooded creature for a boss
fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Curse Dragon
There are two stages to this fight. During the first part
dedicate Rosa to healing. Have Kain use haste then focus on Jumping
so he can avoid attacks. Have Ceo help with the healing and attack
the rest of the time. Have Cid attack unless someone dies, then use a
phoenix down. For the weaker teams the boss's Blaze attack can kill
you in one shot.
After you do so much damage to him he will change form and the
fight will start again. Once again start off by casting slow, because
it will come off when he transforms. In this form he will counter
every attack. Some of his new attacks include Doom, Firaga, Black
Fang, and Dark Breath. For those of you who have not seen it before
the Black Fang is an attack that will kill a character regardless of
his/her HP or level.
After the fight go and grab the chest. The prizes are random so
be happy with what you got. If you want more you will have to come
back and do it all again.
Lunarian's Tale (fflu) Level Cap 45
Lunar Subterrane (lulsl)

Chamber of Sleep
You start off at Baron where Cecil will be looking for someone.
Rosa will then come in and talk about Ceodore. The scene then
switches to the telescope room in Agart. The people will notice that
the second moon has returned. You will then go to the title screen
for the story. You will then get a little shot of the moon and be
sent into a battle against Cecil. First off go into the item menu and
unequip Golbez's sword. All it takes is three hits for you to fall so
just allow it. Golbez will wake up and you will have control of him.
The sword that we took off of him has been replaced by an Ancient
Sword. The Ebony Sword that we got gives a boost to the Spirit and
Intellect scores. One thing to know about Golbez as a character is
that for a long time his HP will not go up and he will not learn most
of the black magic. But let's face it, who heard about someone using
pig in a major fight. And when he reaches level 56 his HP will go up.
Everybody in here is asleep and will not talk to you so just head up.
Here you will find a panel surrounded by red spots. Go to the right
and there is a save point. DON'T FORGET TO SAVE IN ANOTHER SAVE FILE.
YOU WILL NEED THE OTHER SAVE FLIES FOR ANOTHER STORY. To the left of
the panel is a sleeping bunny who will sell you item. Don't worry
about it for now because you have little money. Don't forget to
arrange Golbez's spells. Step onto the panel to go to the next floor.
Lunar Subterrane 12th floor

From here head down to the next area. Fans of the original game
will recognize this as area where the final boss was beaten. Keep
heading down and step on the panel that takes you to the next area.

Keep following the path and when you go up the first stairs you
will have a scene where Golbez feels something. Keep following the
path to the next floor

When you go left you will see a panel on the ground that will
heal your MP and HP. Ignore it for now and go all the way to the left
there will be a chest with a hi-potion. Head to the right and get the
chest with the tent in it and go up the stairs. Keep going around and
you will find the panel to the next floor.

Head to the left and grab the chest with the ether on the way.
Once you go up the second set of stairs go to the right to get a chest
with a x-potion in it. Head back and go up to find the stairs to the
next level

Work your way to the around, skipping the path going down near
the stairs. Make sure you grab the chests with the phoenix down on
the way. Keep going and you will find the stairs to the next level.

Finally a change of scenery. One thing to remember is that most
of the extra areas are sealed off until a later trip through here. Go
up the stairs on the right and keep heading to the right. As you walk
you will see a series of rooms. Just ignore them for now because you
can't go in there. After you go past the second room you will get
into a fight with a Magma Tortoise and a Fell Turtle. Use Blizzaga on
them and they should fall quickly. Go into the third room for a
chance to save and then head back out. Keep going to the left and you
will find the stairs to the next floor.
Head toward the upper left corner of the room for a chest with a
phoenix down in it go back down for the way to the next area. Go
around the platform and go up the stairs and down the other for a
chest with a cottage. Go back up and get the chests on both sides of
the stairs containing a hi-potion and tent. Now head back to the
stairs. As you try to go up them you will have another fight, this
time between a Centaur Knight, Black Knight, and Flame Knight. Use
Bio on them and they should fall. After the fight go up the stairs to
the next floor.
Lunar Subterrane Sth floor

Go right from, ignoring the door and go up the stairs for a magic
pot. Head back down and go to the left. Skip the door for now and go
left to get a chest with a Bronze Hourglass. Now go back to that last
door and go in it. Go down and to the left and get the chest with
mythril gloves in it. Now head back and go to the right to get out of
the room. Go right past the door and get the chest with the Unicorn
Horn in it then head back to the door. In here there will be a secret
passage in the wall on the left. Follow it to chest with a tent and
continue going left then go down to leave the room. Go left and get
the chest with the ether in it. Now head back and go right and up the
stairs to the next floor. Before you reach the top you will have to
fight an Ice Lizard and Black Lizard. Just use Bio on them and they
should die easily.

Head to the left and get the hi-potion from the chest and then
head up through the door. Go left and get the x-potion from the
chest. Stay at the top of the room and head right to get a chest with
a white fang. Head down from there and you will see a door above you
and below you. Go up and use the save point. Now head down and go
out of the room. When you leave the feeling Golbez has will get
stronger. Head to the right and go up the stairs. Keep going and
take the next stairs up. From here go left to get the chest with a
phoenix down and then head all the way to the left. As you go left
you will be attacked again, this time by a Chimera and 2 gremlins.
Once again just use Bio on them to kill them. Go in the door on your
left to get to the next floor.
Lunar Subterrane 3rd floor

Go up from here and go right to get a magic pot. Then just head
up the stairs to the next floor.
Lunar Subterrane 2nd floor

Head to the left to get the chest with a cottage. Now head to the
right through a few secret passages. When you are directly across from
the chest in the second passage head left and around to get to it. It
contains a mythril helm. Now go back to the main passage and head
down and left to get to the stairs to the next area
Lunar Subterrane 1st floor

Head up and you will find another fight. This time you are
fighting 3 goblin captains and a lamia matriarch. Just use Bio like
before and they should die with no problems. Head up on the right
side and there will be a secret passage you can take. Follow the path
to find a chest with a mythril shield. Now head back out and go left
onto the floating platform. Step on the panel to leave the area.
Crystal Palace
Golbez will notice right away that the crystals are the color of
blood. If you talk to the crystals they will say random things that
make no sense. Head down through the door to the next area. As you
try to leave Fusoya will talk to you. After some more talking he will
join the team. Now you have to organize all of his magic, and there
is a lot. In the next area head down toward the door. Before you
leave you will notice two paths going left and right. Down these
paths are panels that will heal you. Heal if you want to then head
outside and save. Once outside there are several places to go.
Lunar Tunnels (lult)

The first one that we are going to go to is the Lunar Tunnels.
From the palace head to the right and you will see a cave. Go in it
and go through to the other side. Follow the path here and you will
find another tunnel. In here go right to find two chests with a dry
ether and x-potion. Now head to the left and follow the path to the
next intersection. Now go all the way to the right and you will find
a chest with the Blood Sword. Now head back to the Crystal Palace and
heal. From here head all the way down and you will find another cave.
This is the Hummingway Abode. In here are lots of bunnies wandering
around. In here are four stationary bunnies. The one in the upper
left corner will sell you items and the one in red will lead to your
challenge dungeon. Head left and go up on the grey platform. Go to
the left and you will see two stairs right next to each other. Go
down one of them and head down past the grey platform and go to the
left. After a bit of walking you will find the meteor. Anybody get
where this is going?
---Tail Alert---
During the New Moon you can find a Ebony Dragon in the bigger of the
two tunnels. When you kill it you can find a Ebony Tail that is useful in
later stories.
Impact Crater {luic)
Impact Crater Rim
Right off Fusoya will realize that something is wrong with this
meteor. Golbez will ask what it is and Fusoya will not have an
answer. Head right and go down to the next area.

Head down and right and you will see a little brown mound. These
mounds are how you will get from one section to another. Hop on the
mound and head all the way to the right. Past the mound you will find
a chest with an x-potion. Go back and take the mound down to next
area. Keep going and you will find the mound to the next area

Go down and take the mound on the left. Then head back to the
right and take the mound down. Here you will find three mounds. The
one on the top will take you back to where we came from. The one on
the right will take you to a chest with an echo herbs and then will
lead you back where we came from. The one on the bottom will take you
further into the meteor. Now we will have another intersection. Take
the one on the left and go left again to get to a chest with a mythril
sword. Head down and you will end up where the mound on the right
would have taken you. Go right and hop on the first mound you see.
This will take you to a chest with a unicorn horn in it. Head left
and get on the mound back up. Go right past the mound and you will
see to slopes leading to mounds. Take the one on the bottom to get to
the next area.
Head to the left and go around the mound to get the chest with a
hi-potion in it. Head down and continue following the path and take
the next mound you come to. Head to the right and grab the chest with
the cottage then jump back down. Go to the left and head down the
slope. Go to the right and do not go down the slope to the mound.
Keep going to the right and jump up and get the ether. Now jump back
down and go to the slope we passed. Jump on the mound to go to the
next section. Use the save point on the left and change the moon to a
full moon. The upcoming boss does use black magic but you are also
dependent on it. Head left from the save point to reach the next area
Impact Crater Floor
Go up the slope on the left for a scene with a familiar person.
The girl will ask where the crystals are and Fusoya will ask why she
wants to know. She will mention that there should be 8 more crystals
and Fusoya will be confused. She will refuse to say anything and then
she will attack you.
Once again we are stuck fighting this girl. The big difference
this time is that you can win the fight. First have Fusoya cast shell
and haste on the team and slow on her. Have Golbez cast spells on her
while Fusoya buffs the team. When the fight starts the Girl will
summon Asura. What Asura does is determined by her face. When her
face is orange she will attack you, when it is a light blueish color
she will use Curaga on the Girl and when it is Grey she will cast
Shell. You can't attack Asura so don't try it. Just use magic on the
girl healing when you need to. This can turn into a long fight so
don't be afraid to use ethers. Once the Girl falls Asura will go as
well. Every now and then the girl will use a Binding Glare on one of
your characters. If Golbez is hit then use Esuna on him. If Fusoya
is hit then you just have to wait it out, or use a remedy if you have
one.
Hurray we finally killed her. After a bit of talking Fusoya will
suggest that we check up on Bahamut, who lives north of the meteor.
Now head back and save and then head back to the left. Go past the
area where the fight took place. Going left will take you to the next
area
Keep following the path until you have a choice between going up
and going down. Head down and hop on the mound. Keep hopping and you
will find a chest with a dry ether in it. Head up and go back to the
intersection, this time taking the upper mound. Head up two mounds
and head down. Take the first mound you see and take the mound going
down. This will lead you to two chests one with an emergency exit and
the other with an x-potion. Head back up and go back to the previous
intersection and take the mound going up. Head up from the mound and
you will reach the next area.

Follow the path and at the intersection go down. This will lead
you to a chest with a dry ether in it. Head back down and take the
path going up. At the next intersection go right for a chest with an
antidote. Go back and take the other path which lead to another
intersection. Go down for a chest with a ether in it. Go back up and
keep going up to the next area
Follow the path and at the intersection head left to a chest with
a dry ether. Head back and go up and grab the chest with the hi-
potion then go up. At the next intersection go down for a chest with
a cottage. Head back up and go left and down for another chest this
time with Diamond Armor. Head back up and continue up to the next
area.
Impact Crater Rim
Head to the left and exit the meteor. Head up from the meteor
and you will see a circular grey area with a stairway. Go up and
circle around and head down the stairs back down. You will see a grey
area with a door in it. Heal up and save then head inside
Lair of the Father (lulf)

Lair of the Father 1st floor
Head straight down without going right and find the chest with
the aura staff. Go to the right and go up. To the right here and
take the secret passage to a chest with a dry ether. Head back
through the passage and head down. Follow the path and you will see a
door going to the next area.
Lair of the Father 2nd floor

Head to the left and follow the path and you will see a chest
with a ether. Head to the right and don't go up. Continue to the
right and get a chest with an Ice Shield. Head back to the right and
make sure that you are healed. When you head up across that narrow
path you will have a fight with a Count Malboro. Cast slow on it and
hit it with magic. Its two big attacks are bad breath and an attack
that will paralyze a member of your team. Also be careful of his
physical attacks. Head up through the door to the next floor.
Lair of the Father 3rd floor

Below you will be a long narrow path. On this path are two more
of the Malboro fights. If you need to restore your magic you can
either use a tent outside or try to use Osmose to drain magic. Use
the same strategy that you used on the first one and you should be
fine. When you reach the end you will find out that Bahamut will have
been turned to stone. Your next destination will be to return to the
palace you started at.
Lunar Subterrane (luls2)
Crystal Palace
Heal and head to the crystal chamber. When you get there you
will notice that the light is gone from the crystals. The girl will
appear then and thank them for leading her back here. You will now
enter into another boss fight.

Once again we have to fight her and once again this is a fight we
can win. It will be as hard as the last time, if not harder. This
time she will summon Leviathan to help her. Just like before you
can't harm her summon. Just use the same strategy as before and you
should be fine. When you see Leviathan start to gather light around
him it means that he is about to use his Tidal Wave attack. Just keep
your HP up and you should be fine.
Once the fight is over Fusoya will say that he will summon the
Lunar Whale so they can use prayers to power up their Crystals. As
they pray the room will start to shake and the crystals will shatter.
Once the first one shatters the Mysterious Girl will appear. That's
right people, there are more of her. She will disappear and Fusoya
will mention that she is after the other Lunarians. Go back to heal
and save. Now head back and go back to the Lunar Subterrane.
Lunar Subterrane 1st floor

Just so you know I am NOT going to give you a step by step guide
through this area. I am just going to cover where there are chests
that we were not able to get the first time through. If you just want
to get through then head up to where the first time I covered the area
was at. One thing to keep in mind is that now the Subterrane is
filled with monsters. When you start out head to the left and go
through the secret passage leading left to a warp panel. Go forward
and through the door to the next area.
Lunar Subterrane 2nd floor

Follow the path and get the chest with a x-potion. Now head back
to the first floor and head to the third floor from there.
Lunar Subterrane 3rd floor
As you enter this floor you will see the second crystal break.
Use the magic pot if you need to heal. Head down from the stairs to
the next floor and there will be a secret passage leading right. Grab
the Dry ether and continue to the right through another secret
passage. Grab the two chests with the decoy and the Icebrand. Now
head back to the next floor.

Go down the stairs on the right and go through the door on the
left for a chest with an Elixir in it. Now head back to the next
floor.
Once here another crystal will shatter. In the next room there
will be an exit on the top and on the bottom. Take the one on the
bottom for a chest with Ice Armor in it. Now head back and take the
top exit. Follow the path and when you reach the stairs to the next
area go in the door to the right of it. In the room is a chest with a
remedy. Go out and go to the next floor.

Go down the stairs on the left and head directly to the left from
the bottom of the stairs for an invisible bridge. Head around and at
the end of the path is a passage leading right and down to the bottom
of this floor. Go down and get the chest with the Luminous Robe and
head to the right for a panel. Head up the stairs to the next floor

Go up and get the chest with the soma drop in it. Now head back
and go to the 7th floor

When you enter this floor the next crystal will break. Head down
and enter the first room and save the game. Go into the third rooms
and get the chests containing a dry ether and remedy. Now head back
to the 12th floor. On the 9th, 11th, and 12th floors more crystals will
break. Don't forget to use the healing panel on the 10th floor to
restore your HP and MP. When you reach the 12th floor the Lunar Whale
will rise and head to the moon. Now head up, watch the last crystal
shatter, and get ready for a boss fight
BOSS FIGHT: Zeromus's Malice
Right before the fight starts you will learn a new band. When
the fight starts have Fusoya cast slow and Golbez use Bio. Heal when
you need to and don't worry about defensive spells. If you want to
try you can but he may use the black hole attack and get rid of all
enhancements. If you want to risk it cast reflect that way his spells
will hurt him instead. Eventually the boss will use the big bang
attack to reduce your health to 1 hp. Fusoya will then use his magic
to teleport Golbez to the Lunar Whale.
You will now have a lot of scenes from the original game in
between shots of the Lunar Whale. The first one is the end of the
original game. After this the Whale will be seen moving away from the
moon. The next scene is of the Giant of Babil. The third scene is
from the underworld. The fourth scene is of the Tower of Zot. The
fifth scene is in Fabul castle. The last scene is back when Golbez
was a child and Zemus first took control of him. Just let these
fights play out. Finally you will go to interior of the Whale and see
Golbez lying on the floor. You will now have control of him. Go up
and talk to the crystal. You will then see a scene with the moon
getting closer to the earth. Golbez will be worried about Cecil and
then the title screen will show. We are now done with this story.
The final story will now be unlocked.
Lunarian's Challenge Dungeon
There are actually two challenge dungeons in this story. The
first one is in the Namingway abode and the second one is in the Lunar
Face. To get the second one you must get a special item from the
first one.
Challenge Dungeon (lucd1)
The first room is very easy. Just follow the path to the next
room
Go to the right for a secret path leading to a chest with a
Ether. Now go back and go to the left. Head up and search the wall
on the right for a secret path leading to a chest with a x-potion.
Head back and continue up to find the door to the next floor. Before
you go through the door go down and follow the path to a chest with a
Hermes Sandals. Now go through the door.
Head up and you will see the door to a save point. Use it then
go back out. Go to the right and you will find two paths going up and
down. Go down for a chest with a X-potion. Go up and left through a
secret path for a chest with a Bacchus Wine. Go right and through the
door.
Go up and go up the stairs to an intersection. Go left and
follow the path to a door. Go inside the door and grab the chest with
a Dry Ether. Search the right wall for a secret path that leads to
door. Go down the stairs and follow the path to a chest with a Dry
Ether. Go down from here for a chest with a Master's Staff, Now go
back to the intersection at the beginning of this section and go up to
the next area.
Go up and follow the path to a chest with an X-potion. Head up
for a save point. Change the moon to Waning and go up for a boss
fight. Before you talk to him cast Float.
BOSS FIGHT: Kirin
DON'T USE MAGIC ON THIS BOSS. If you do he will counter with
Holy. As this will do massive damage on the team it is not a good
thing to do. The only spell you need to cast on him is Slow. Have
Golbez focus on physical attacks and have Fusoya use spells like
Shell, Protect, Haste, and any others you might want. One thing you
can do is cast Berserk on Golbez. While this might make him
uncontrollable it will make him stronger. Have Fusoya heal when
necessary and just wait for when he needs to heal again.
When he is dead go up and collect the treasure chest. The
contents are random so be happy for what you get. You can make repeat
visits if you want more items. Once you get the Proof of Courage you
can go to the other challenge dungeon. To get to the Lunar Face go to
the Lair of the Father and go northwest until you get to a mountain
range above the grey areas. Go right between the grey area and the
mountain and you will find some stairs leading down. Talk to the
Bunny and the door to the next challenge dungeon will appear.
Lunar Face (lucd2)

Head left and follow the path to the intersection. Go right
through a secret path for a chest with a Ether. Head back and go up
and left for a chest with a x-potion. Go to the right and go through
the secret path. Follow the path through the door to find two chests
containing a Coeurl Whisker and Ether. Head back to the chest with
the x-potion and go up through the door to the next area.
Head to the left for a chest with a Light Curtain then go right.
Follow the path to the next intersection and go left for a x-potion
then go to the right. Follow the path and you will find the door to
the next area. Before you go through it go to the left through a
secret path with a chest containing a Lunar Curtain. Now go back and
go through the door.
Go to the right for a chest with an x-potion then go back to the
door. Go up and you will see the door to the next area. Before you
go into it there are some things that we need to do. Go to the right
and up the stairs for a door that contains a save point. Head out and
go to the left for a chest with a Light Curtain. Now return to the
door to the next area and go to the left and down the stairs. Follow
the path and you will find a chest with a Dry Ether and a chest with
an x-potion. Now go back and go in the door that we have been
avoiding. Go around the center and go down the stairs.
This area tends to change every time that you come in. The exit
is always in the bottom right corner so just travel through the secret
paths in the doorways to reach it.
Once again the area will change. This time the exit will be in
the center of the room.
This is the final room in the dungeon. To the right of the
entrance is a save point and an exit. Go up from the save point and
talk to the figure for a boss fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Armstrong
There is not much to say about this fight. You need to use the
same tactics as the fight with Kirin. Just cast slow and revive the
character he kills. Use haste on both of them and Berserk on Golbez.
Have Fusoya focus on casting Blink on both of you. That is all you
need for this fight.
Once again you will have a chest with a random prize. Save the
game and go back in if you want more.
The Crystals (ffcr)

Before you start this story there are several things that you
need to do first. You need to go into some of the stories and unequip
certain characters. The stories and characters are,
Yang' tale: 3 monks
Porom's tale: White mage, Black Mage, Kain
Edward's tale: 3 soldiers
Lunarian's tale: Fusoya
If you don't unequip these characters their equipment will be

lost forever. If you want to unequip the other characters so that
their equipment will be available you can. When you are ready select
the story. When you start you will have the choice of loading the
other stories. If you do you will get all the levels, equipment,
items, and money. It will also get you access to Leonora, Ursula,
Harley, Calca, Brina (if you got the three parts in Rydia's tale), and
the 4 Ninja as playable characters in the second half of the story.
The Crystals: Earth (ffcre)
Overworld (creov)
The story will start off in the Underworld on the Falcon.
Suddenly meteors will start falling all over the planet while the moon
gets closer to the planet. The scene will switch to places all over
the planet where people are seeing the destruction of the world. The
Falcon will rise out of the underworld and witness what is happening
to the world. The Man In Black will take control of the ship and take
it to Baron. The scene will switch to the throne room of Baron where
Cecil will confront Kain and the others. You will then see the title
screen and the Falcon will land at Baron. Your team will consist of
Luca, Edge, Rydia, and MIB. Since you should have a wide variety of
equipment you need to equip it on your team. You can now save your
game. If you want to save over your older files you are free to do so
but you will not be able to reload them into The Crystals if you want
to start over. When you try to head into the Castle you will be
blocked by a weird light. Unable to get through you will return
outside. For the first time in the game you will be able to go almost
anywhere you want to. Anytime that you try to board the Falcon you
will be asked if you want to take off. If you say no you can take the
stairs in the upper left corner of the ship to go below. If you talk
to the beds on the right you will be able to rest for free.
The first thing we need to do is familiarize ourselves with the
land. The land of Baron is located in the middle of the map. To the
north of Baron is the village of mist. A bit to the northeast of
there is the village of Kaipo. Head up from Kaipo and you will reach
Damcyan. To the east of Damcyan is the kingdom of Fabul. South of
Fabul is the island of Mythril. To the west of Damcyan is the land of
Toria. South of Toria is the land of Eblan. South of Baron is the
Island of Agart. East of Agart is the land of Mysidia. That is about
it for the locations of the major areas. Most of the caves and the
mountains are blocked off so you can't get in them. Before we get to
the story line we have a lot of looting to do. If you want to just
skip the treasures go past the section with the --- in front of it.
---treasure hunting--- (creth)

We will start our treasure hunt at Baron. Before we head into
the town go left and cross the bridge. Go up and to the right of the
lake there will be a beige area. Head into this spot for a little
clearing. Search around the grass for a chest with a Small Tail.
These can be traded in later for a decent prize. Now head into the
city
Baron
As you notice there are guards wandering around the city.
Talking to any of them will start a fight against the zombie infantry
enemies. Also all of the doors in the city are locked and only a few
of them can you go into. If you need to get some items there is an
item bunny next to the entrance. Go to the right in front of the inn
and there is a phoenix down in a pot. Go to the house above the Inn
and talk to the door. Rydia will talk to the person and you will be
allowed in. This is Rosa's house. There is nothing in here so just
head out to the left of the house. Check the barrel on top for a hi-
potion. Go to the left and you will see a staircase. Go up it and
check the well on the left of the house. In it is a small tale. This
is different from the tails so don't get them confused. Go to the
door and talk to it. This time Luca will be the one to gain you entry
into the house. There is nothing in here so head out and go north up
the stairs to the top of the waterfall. Kill the guard and head into
the stairs. Follow the path in to the water and at the end are hidden
chests with an x-potion and a silver hourglass. Head out of the water
and go back to Rosa's house. Head to the right and fight the other
guard. Go through the arch, take one step to the left, and go up
until you get to the trees. Head to the right and go through a secret
passage that goes to the left of town. In here are hidden chests
containing a cottage, x-potion, small tail, and dry ether. We are
done here so head out of the town and hop on the airship.
Overworld
From the city of Baron go to the right a little and you will see
a lone tree at the tip of some land. Land the ship and walk onto the
tree. Search the grass for a chest with a small tail. Now head to
the land of Fabul. Head a bit to the west and you will see a forest
area. Land and head into the forest. You are looking for an area
surrounded by four black meteor spots. Head into this and go up to
the top and get the chest with the Faerie Rod. Head to the right
through a secret passage and you will find a small tail. Go back to
the castle and go to the southeast forest and you will see another
clearing. Go in and search the bush at the top for a small tail.
Before we go much further let's head to the city of Mythril.
This is the only city in the world that doesn't have anything
happening to it. Search the grassy area on the right of the town for
a cottage. Head left from here and you will see the equipment shops.
Go behind them to find a hidden chest with a heavenly wrath. Head to
the right from here to another grassy area. In here is a chest with a
remedy. Check the well nearby for a small tale. Now head back out
and get on the falcon
The next place on our hit list is the land of Toria. Land next
to the castle and head up toward the chocobo forest. To the right of
the forest is another of the clearing areas. There is a secret
passage on the right of the area that leads to an Ice Whip. On the
far left side is a lone bush with a small tail in it. Head back and
go to the airship. Now go directly right and you will come to another
clearing. Search the bushes to the right for a Small Tail. Now go
back and get on the airship. To the south of Toria is another
clearing near the other chocobo forest. It is in the middle of three
meteor burns. Make sure that you heal and save before you go in. In
here is a chest with monsters in it. You will face off against 3 dark
sages. Have Rydia cast stop on them to reduce damage and have Luca,
Edge, and MIB focus on one at a time. Don't worry too much about your
magic. Remember that the Falcon has a free inn. When you win you
will receive the mage masher. Head back to the falcon.
Next we are going to Damcyan. To the left of the castle is a
meteor crash site. Land at the bottom and head in. Go up and examine
the bones for another of the small tails. Now go down a few blocks
and head left. You will see an island with a small circular forest.
Land on it and enter the forest. Check the bushes for a chest
containing the chocobo spell. Finally a summon that doesn't require a
lot of work to get. Now head to Kaipo. Before you land, locate three
rocks to the south of the town that form a triangle. There is a spot
to the right of the rocks that you can land at. Now land and head to
this spot and go in the middle of the rocks. Check the pillar in the
middle for a small tail. Now head back to the ship. Head to the
right of the rocks and you will come to a set of mountains. Follow
them to the right and you will see land formation that looks like a C
with a desert patch on the lower part. Land near the desert, heal and
save, then head in. This monster has much more bark than bite.
Simply cast stop on it and the fight is yours. Your reward for this
fight is a Black Belt Gi. After the fight talk to the pillar in the
upper right of the circle to get another Small tail.
Now we are going to Mount Ordeals to the east of Mysidia. Go to
the southwest from the mountain and you will find a little island with
a clearing on it. Save and then head inside. Open the chest and you
will find another monster. Just like last time just use stop on him
and beat him up. For winning you will receive the ribbon. This great
piece of armor will protect you from any status ailment. Now go back
to the Falcon. Head up from here and you will see another meteor
crash sight. Land and enter. For the first time in a while you won't
have to fight to get the prize. Take the luminous robe and get back
on the ship. We have one more stop in this area. Fly to the
southeast of the mountain and you will see a cave that isn't blocked
up. Head inside and check the boxes on the right for a small tale.
Now head to the left and grab the chest with the elixir. When you go
back down check for a path to the right. This will lead to a crate
with a small tail. Now head back to the Falcon.
Our next stop is the island Agart. On the right side of the
island is another of the lone trees. Save before you head in there.
Inside the chest is another monster. This time you will fight a Fell
Knight and two Mini Satans. Use the stop spell to take care of the
Satans. Be careful about attacking them because they will use Confuse
on you. One level three spell on each of them should be enough to
stop them. When you win you will receive a set of Diamond Armor. Now
back to the ship.
For our last stop on the treasure tour we are going to Eblan.
Just head left from Agart. To the north of the tower is another lone
tree. Step on it and search the grass for a small tail. Now go east
of the tower and next to the mountains is another lone tree. Step on
it once again for a small tail
---treasure hunting---
Now that is done let us continue the story. Our trip will
consist of the Lodestone cavern, Mysidia, Agart, Fabul, Kaipo,
Damcyan, and Eblan. As a note you have to do Fabul before Kaipo and
Mysidia before Agart. Other than that they can be done in any order
you want. This is basically a trip to reclaim most of the Eidolons
that were captured.
Fabul/Kaipo (crefk)
I will start my trip in the land of Fabul. When you enter the
monks will recognize you and let you through. They will tell you that
the Sylphs have been attacking the castle. The Sylphs will not attack
you if you don't talk to them. There is nothing on the first floor so
head to the throne room. After a bit of talking Sheila will give you
a frying pan and a ladle. Hmm I wonder what we do with these. Head
to the left and check the pot for an x-potion. Go to the right and
step on the switch to open the door in the wall. Head through and get
the three chests containing a phoenix down, cottage, and a decoy. Now
head back to the previous floor. Head around to the back of the room
and take the door leading outside. Let's start in the western tower.
Check the pots for a Hermes sandals and open the chests for a cross,
phoenix down, and a bronze hourglass. The only thing on the next
floor is the white mage that will heal you. There is nothing on the
third floor so go to the other tower. There is nothing on the first
floor so go to the second. Check the pot on the right for a Bacchus's
wine. Head up to the third floor. Check the flowers for a small tail
then grab the chest with the hi-potion. We are now done at Fabul.
Our next destination is Kaipo. Park the airship nearby and cross
the desert. Once inside you will notice that the place is also
crawling with the sylphs. When you enter the city head to the back
and examine the graves. Then go into the inn and go to the item
counter. Here you need to buy lots of Spider silk. You will need
them in the later parts of the story. Head to the house in the upper
right corner and you will find Yang and Ursula asleep on the bed.
Talk to Yang and an item menu will pop up. Go down and choose the
Frying pan. Luca will be shocked as Edge whacks Yang on the head with
it. He will mumble something about his wife and then wake up. Your
attention will then turn to Ursula. This time choose the ladle. She
will mention something about her mom and wake up. Luca will mention
about how crazy this family is. The sylphs will then appear before
you and will rejoin Rydia. After a bit more talking the scene will
change to Baron. The Mysterious girl will then take the crystals from
Rosa. Rosa will try to approach Cecil and Kain will her to stop.
Afterwards the two of them will come with you and lay down in two of
the beds in the Falcon. Now it is time to set a new destination.
Eblan (creeb)
When you enter you will see that the castle is on fire. The
guards will let you through and your end destination is the throne
room. However you may notice that it is blocked off by fire. In
order to get through here you have to go into each of the towers and
find a powerful monster. I would suggest leaving the looting until
the castle is not on fire because you will get attacked while you are
walking. Every now and then you will get attacked by Ifrit. Just run
for now, you will take care of him later. For the east tower head to
the second floor for the monster. For the west tower he is on the
third floor. To get there head down from the stairs through the wall
and go right to the stairs. Head to the towers and talk to the cloaked
monster.
BOSS FIGHT: Melt Golem
First have someone use a spider silk on him to slow him down.
Have it be the Full Moon phase so that his powerful physical attacks
will be diminished. Focus Edge on using Heal Pill and Rydia using
Sylph to heal the team. Have MIB use Blizzaga and Luca use Attack.
Just keep your HP high and you should do ok.
As you beat the Golems the fire in front of the main door will
disappear. When both of them are gone you will be able to enter.
Before you do head back out to heal and save. Make sure that the moon
phase is good for you to battle against a boss. If you want to be
absolutely sure about your victory then equip Luca with a piece of ice
armor and a cursed ring. If you don't have these then you can get
them from the evil flames outside the castle. This ring will take any
piece of armor that reduces an elemental attack and will let the
character absorb it. The down side is that it makes all your stats
worthless. This will only work on elemental attacks, though. It will
not stop Ifrit's physical attacks. When you are ready head into the
throne room and go through the scene.
BOSS FIGHT: Ifrit

This is a short fight. It is over when you either get killed or
Ifrit uses Hellfire. Do not waste your magic or items on this fight
BOSS FIGHT: Rubicante

This is another short fight. When the fight starts Rydia will
join you. After a bit Rubicante will use inferno on you, ending the
fight. Do not waste your magic or items on this fight. After this
fight Edge and Rydia will learn the Inferno Band.
BOSS FIGHT: Ifrit

This fight will start off with Edge and Rydia using the Inferno
Band. Then MIB and Luca will join the fight. Just like with the
golems use slow on it to keep it under control. Have MIB use Blizzaga
and Edge and Rydia heal. When he starts to glow that means that he is
gathering energy for Hellfire. Make sure that your HP is completely
healed at this point. After you deal enough damage Ifrit will come to
his senses and will return to Rydia.
The scene will switch back to Baron. Cecil will ask Kain if he
is going to fight him. Kain will say yes and Ceodore will be
surprised. Cecil will ask if he is willing to fight his own father.
Cecil will demand an answer and then Kain will attack Cecil. You
can't win so just attack. The scene will end and you will be back at
Eblan. Now head outside and save.
Now it is time to loot the castle. Start by heading to the west
tower. To get one of the chests take two steps back toward the door
and go right. In the chest is an Elixir. Now head to the second
floor. There is an indention in the left wall. Go in it and go down
to find a chest with a Boltslicer in it. Go up to Edge's room and
check the armor for a small tale. When you are on the second floor
and in the secret path search the bottom right pot for a secret
tail. Now go to the east tower. Head to the upper left corner and head
behind the pillar to find a secret passage. The chest at the end has
a Red Fang in it. Now head to the second floor. Open the three
chests to find a silent bell, remedy, and x-potion. Go down the
stairs and grab the chest with the cottage then head up the stairs and
grab the chest with a Bacchus's wine. Now go into the main part of
the castle. Head to the save point on the left and head directly
right of it to find a secret passage that leads to a Decoy. That it
is it for the kingdom of Eblan. Now we will go to the land of Toria.
Toria (creto)
First let's head to the city. Go behind the armor and weapon
shops and go into the little indention. Talk to the wall and you will
get a Small Tail. Cross the bridge in front of you and go right and
down the stairs into the water. Follow the path to the back of the
town and get out of the water. Head to the left through the trees and
you will find a grassy area with chests containing a decoy, dry ether,
ether, and x-potion. Now head out and go into the castle. The castle
has been completely frozen. Head into the back of the castle for the
Crystal Room. Luca will wonder where Palom is at a time like this.
Rydia will remember that Palom was heading away from the castle and
Luca will recall information about the Lodestone Cavern to the
northeast of the castle. That is our next destination.
Lodestone Cavern (crelc)
Lodestone Cavern 1st floor
The bright side is that you don't have to worry about the
magnetic field this time. Go all the way to the right across the
bridge and grab the chest with a recovery rod. Head back to the
bridge and go down and follow the path and you will see the stairs to
the next floor and a chest with a unicorn horn. Now go down the
stairs to the next area.
Lodestone Cavern 2nd floor
Head left, up, and left again and you will find a chest with a
Coeurl whisker. Head to the right, go across the bridge and go inside
the door. In here you will find two chests containing a Hermes
Sandals and a Cottage. Go back out of the room and go all the way to
the left to find the stairs to the next floor.
Lodestone Cavern 3rd floor

Go in the door on your left and use the save point. Head down
the bridge and go all the way down and you will see a door. Head
inside and grab the three chests with a dry ether, Diamond Helm, and
silver hourglass. Head back out and go to the right and there will be
a corridor leading to a door. Inside the door head up and grab the
chest with a cottage. Now head down and left to the stairs to the
next floor
Go on the bridge and go directly left and there will be a path to
a stairway going to the next floor.

Go around the stairs and take the bridge going to the left. This
will take you to a chest with a light curtain. Head back down and
take the bridge going to the right. When you start to go up do not
stop. You will find a secret path and it will take you to a chest
with a white fang. Head back down and continue along the path.
Before you take the stairs head up. There will be another secret
passage heading up and to the right which will lead to a chest with an
elixir in it. Go back across the secret path and go left to find a
chest with a remedy in it. Now head back down and take the stairs
back to the previous floor.

Head to the right of the stairs and you will find a secret
leading to the main area. Head up but DO NOT ENTER THE DOOR. Head to
the right of the door and you will find a pile of bones with a small
tail in it. Head up and to the right and there will be a chest with a
pair of diamond gloves. Now head back to where the torches are and go
right across the bridge. Head inside the door and check the crates
for a small tale. Now save and set the moon phase for a boss fight.
Once again I would suggest a full moon because MIB works best in a
full moon. Save and head in the door above the torches and after the
scene you will have a boss fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Shiva

You have to be very careful in this fight. If you do too much
damage then you will kill Shiva and you will not be able to use her.
You can still continue the story but you lose a strong summon. To
start the fight off use a spider silk on her to slow her down. Then
cast three Firaga spells on her while attacking and healing. As with
the others, when she starts to glow she is preparing for her Diamond
Dust attack. After you get three spells on here stick to physical
attacks. Eventually Rydia will comment that Shiva has stopped. At
this point DO NOT HIT SHIVA. After a couple of seconds Shiva will
come to her senses.
When the fight is over Shiva will return to Rydia and Palom and
Leonora will thaw out along with Toria Castle. You will now be taken
back to the castle. After some more talking the scene will once again
switch to Baron Castle. Kain will have been defeated and Ceodore will
decide to get between the two men. Kain will stand back up and the
scene will end. You are now back on the Falcon. Head out and go to
the Toria Castle. We have two treasures to get in here and they are
both in outside the castle walls. When walking up through the first
archway there are two paths going left and right leading into the
water. Go both ways and go down and work your way to the very back of
the water and you will find two chests containing a small tail and a
small tale. We are done here so head out of the castle and back to
the Falcon. Our next destination is the kingdom of Damcyan.
Damcyan (creda)
When you get inside the castle take one step back into the desert
and walk to the right making sure you stay next to the wall. Go
inside room and press the switch on the wall next to the bars to open
a door. Head through to get three chests containing an x-potion,
phoenix down, and emergency exit. Now head out of the door in the
wall and head to the left and go down the stairs. Open the chests in
here for a diamond shield, 2 ethers, blue fang, white fang, and red
fang. Check the pots for 2 x-potions and a hi-potion. Now head to
the entrance to the castle. As you head up you will notice that
antlions have overrun the castle. Like with the sylphs they will not
hurt you if you don"t talk to them. Head inside the castle. Head to
the far right and go up the stairs. Before moving go down and follow
the secret passage to a chest with a Bomb core. Go back and come back
up and grab the decoy from the chest. That"s it for this area so head
back down and go to the left, skipping the main stairs, and you will
find another set of stairs going up. Go up to the top floor and check
the bookcase for a small tail. Now head back to the first floor and
take the center stairs to the throne room. After some talking with
Harley she will head onto the Falcon. Now head back out and go to the
Falcon. Our next destination is the land of Mysidia.
Mysidia/Agart (crema)
Before entering equip as much lightning resistant armor as you
have. Inside the city there is nothing to find so just head toward
the back of town to find a boss fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Ramuh
This fight is very similar to the one with Shiva. You will have
to carefully attack him so that you don't kill him. Use a spider silk
on him to slow him down and use a couple of level 3 spells on him.
Eventually Rydia will talk to him and you will need to stop attacking.
And as with the previous Eidolons when he starts to gather energy he
is going to use his special attack.
After the fight Ramuh will return to Rydia. Now head up into the
Hall of Prayer and you will find Porom. After you enter Porom will
collapse on the floor and you will take her back to the Falcon. After
some talking the scene will switch back to Baron. After a quick
couple of lines all five of them will be placed in a fight against
Cecil. Don't worry too much, like before you can't win this fight.
After some time Cecil will summon Odin. Now head to the west and land
at the island of Agart. Make sure that the moon is full because the
boss mainly uses physical attacks. We will raid the island later.
For now head in and go to the right. When you pass the inn go left
and approach the Mysterious Girl for a fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Titan
This fight is a two part fight. For the first part use a spider
silk and just attack with everything that you got. Just keep a close
eye on your HP. After a while Titan will use his Gaia's Wrath attack.
If you have not been to Mysidia then this will end the fight. If you
did go then Porom will show up and cast float on the team. Now the
fight will begin again. He will now use a Crush attack that will kill
a team member in one shot. Remember when you revive characters they
will not be under the influence of float. Just reapply the spider
silk and beat him up. Unlike the past fights you do not have to take
it easy on Titan. After you do enough damage the fight will be over
and you will have your summon.
We are now done fighting the Eidolons. Titan will return to
Rydia and all of the kingdoms except Baron are safe. You will now
return the Falcon and put Porom back in bed. Now head back into the
town because we need to raid it. Once inside the town head to the
left around the well in the middle of the town. As you walk you will
find a grassy area with a chest containing a Gaia Drum. Now go back
down and enter the house to the left of the entrance. Search the
globe on the table between the beds for a small tail. Now go to the
center of town and talk to the well and agree to go down.
Agart Subterrane (creas)
Agart Subterrane 1st floor
Head to the right and follow the path to a chest with a Decoy.
Now head back down and go to the right. At the next intersection go
to the right for a chest with a Diamond Armlet. Head back and go up.
Go past the first stairs unless you want to save and head down to
another floor.
Agart Subterrane 2nd floor

Go down and grab the chest with the Ogrekiller. To the right of
the chest and there will be a secret passage that leads to a chest
with a Golden Apple. We are done here so head back to the Falcon. We
now have two places to go before we get to Baron. Our next
destination is the village of Mist.
Mist (cremi)
When you get in the town you will find that it is covered in a
thick mist. When you enter the mist will go away and people will
appear. The village chief will tell you that the only reason that the
Mist Dragon was not captured was that the village children protected
it. After the talking you will receive the Dragon summon. Head back
in the village and head up and right to find a grassy area. In here
is a chest with a Bomb Core. Head down and there will be an indention
in the trees on the right. Go through it and you will find two chests
containing 2 Bomb Crank. Our final destination is the Cave Of Eblan.
Cave of Eblan (creeb)

Cave of Eblan 1st floor
Go right from the entrance and grab the chest with the remedy in
it. Keep going right and get the other chest with the ether. Now
head all the way down, skipping the bridge and you will see a chest
with a phoenix down. Head left across the bridge and go up the stairs
to find a chest with a x-potion. Now head down and go to the left and
you will see the stairs to the next area. Before you take them head
up and you will come to a chest with a hi-potion in it. Now head to
the next floor
Cave of Eblan 2nd floor

Head around and grab the chest for a spider silk. Head to the
left, go up the stairs, and go to the left and get the chest with a
Phoenix down. Now head up and take the stairs to the next floor.
Path to Tower of Babil

Grab the phoenix down and head up to find a chest with an hi-
potion. Below the stairs is an indent in a wall that leads to a chest
with a spider silk. Head back up and before you take the stairs
examine the far right rock for a small tail. Now go to the next area.
Head up and you will see a person wandering around. If you talk
to him you can get colored tails from him for 7 small tails and 14
will get you a rainbow tail. Head to the left and go up to find a
chest with a x-potion. Head right and go up past the person to find a
chest with a Hermes sandal. Now head down and look for a secret
passage in the right wall that leads to a chest with a dry ether. Now
head back and go down to the next area
Above the chests on the right is a secret passage leading to two

chests containing an ether and a cottage. Head back through and get
the three chests with a Bacchus"s wine, Lilith's Kiss, and vampire
fang. Head down and go left to get a mallet. Head to the right to
get the three chests with a potion and 2 hi-potions. Head up and go
to the next area.
Go to the left and get the chest with the ether and head back
down to the door on the right. In here is a save point. Before we
use it go to the top of the room and to the right is a secret passage
leading to a chest with a kotetsu in it. Give it to Edge then heal
and save your game. We have a big fight coming up and we need to be
prepared. Go out the door and head up for a scene after the scene you
will have a fight
BOSS FIGHT: Marquis Malboro

First off use a spider silk to slow it down. Now have MIB use a
high level spell and have Rydia use Bio if she has it. Have Edge
focus on using Heal Pill and have Luca do whatever is necessary from
healing to attacking. There are a few things to be careful of. The
first thing is the bad breath. Use a remedy to fix this easily. He
can also cast reflect on himself and nullify your spells. The good
thing is that summons will go through reflect. The other thing is
that it can heal itself. Just watch your HP and you should do fine.
When you win you will receive a Kiku-ichimonji for your trouble.
Before you leave there is a secret passage on the left wall that will
lead to a chest with a Black Cowl. Now exit the cave.
Now is the time to do any last minute shopping. I suggest going
to Kaipo and filling up on the spider silk. Another thing is the
upcoming stores do not sell status removing items. Once you go to the
throne room of Baron castle you will not be able to go to any of the
cities on the planet. When you are ready head back to Baron Castle.
Baron Castle (crebc)

Before you enter switch the moon to a Waxing phase so that black
magic is weak. When you go inside the only place you can go it to the
throne room. As soon as you enter you will start in a fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Cecil/Odin

This is a very simple and short fight. Just attack Cecil until
Odin turns against him and ends the fight. One thing to make sure
that you do is to have Rosa"s and Ceodore's HP at max.
After the fight Cecil will fall. Just then the other team will
come in. As they come in and see Cecil on the ground he will mutter
something about his brother, revealing that the MIB is Golbez. What a
shock. After a bit more talking you will be in a boss fight

Once again we will get to kick her butt. The first thing to do
is use a spider silk to slow her down and cast shell to protect the
team from her spells. The next thing to do is to use a Hermes sandals
on Rosa and Rydia. There are two reasons for this. Reason one is so
Rosa can heal quicker. The second reason is the best way to deal
damage on the Girl is to use a band composed of black and white magic.
For the other three have Golbez use Bio to poison her then use a level
3 spell on her. Have the other attack while healing as needed. There
are two big things to watch out for with the Girl. The first thing is
that she will summon Leviathan and Bahamut to attack you. The second
thing is when she starts to glow. This means that she is about to
cast meteor on you. At this point make sure that you are completely
healed and then try to kill her before you get hit.
After the fight she will fall and everybody will reJ01ce. Then
four more girls will show up and take the crystals. After a lot more
talking the Lunar Whale will show up and you will have the option of
saving.
The Crystals: Moon (ffcrm)

You start of seeing flashbacks from when Cecil was under control.
After the flashbacks are over you will be on the Lunar Whale. Cecil
will wake up but it is like his mind is somewhere else. The scene
will go up to the rest of the group. Suddenly the moon will start
pulling the ship in. after the "landing" you will have control of
Ceodore. Don't worry, you don't have to keep him in your team. If
you didn't import your data you will just have the characters on the
first floor to play as. If you did import characters then they will
be on the bottom floor along with the save point and beds.
It is time to pick your team. You can choose from any of the
characters including Cecil. One thing to know about Cecil is that he
is not himself. He will not be able to use his paladin abilities like
white magic. His stats are also subpar. And he will not be able to
use any bands for a while. The only good thing is that he has a lot
of HP and is level 40. The reason that I take him is so he can act as
a shield for my other characters and to get him some experience for
when he does return to normal. My choice for a team is Rydia, Rosa,
Golbez, Kain, and Cecil. If you don't like this team then the best
choice for a team in terms of abilities is 2 fighters, 2 mages. For
the fifth do whatever you want. Whatever you do for your team you
might want to level up outside the ship. For some reason we still
have the moon phases even though we are on the moon. The only places
on the moon that you will be able to save at is at the save points.
If you do use my team then leave Cecil behind and level up a bit.
When you leave the Whale you will see two things. The first thing is
the item bunny on the right. On the left is the interdimensional
elevator. While it is offline right now you will be able to use it
later. This will allow you to teleport between the lunar whale and
the final dungeon. This is good because there are about 40 floors
with a lot of bosses in the dungeon. This will allow you to go back
and restock your items. When you are ready to move on go down the
stairs on the left and head to the left and go up for the dungeon.
Head up in the room and we start the final dungeon.
Subterrane (crmsu)
Subterrane 1st floor
Right off you will notice that this is similar to the moon Golbez
was on. Start by heading to the right and go through the secret
passage on the right wall to get to a chest with a decoy in it. Head
back out and go through the secret passage on the left wall and take
the panel and go through the door to the next floor.
Subterrane 2nd floor

Follow the path and you will reach a chest with a cottage in it.
Keep following the path leading to the next floor
Subterrane 3rd floor

Head up and open the chest with a Genji Shield. Now head back up
to the beginning of the dungeon and go down to the second floor.
Subterrane 2nd floor

Follow the path and when you are directly to the right of the
chest and head left. Grab the chest with the Genji Armor and follow
the path up. Grab the chest with a x-potion and make sure that you
are fully healed. When you are ready enter the door.
Subterrane 3rd floor

You will see a crystal and the team will spread out. After a bit
of talking you will have a boss fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Baigan/ right and left arm

People who played the original game will recognize this enemy.
The first thing you do is use a spiders silk on the boss. The left
arm will use the Bloodfest attack and the right will use constrict.
The main body will mainly use physical attacks but will use reflect if
you hit him with magic. Concentrate on the right arm first. It is
not his right but the right as you look at him. One thing to remember
is that summons and bands will go through reflect. If you kill both
of the arms he will regenerate them. If you kill the main body and do
not kill the arms quickly then they will explode. You want to weaken
the arm that you do not destroy to where you can kill it quickly.
Once he is dead you will have a heal spot that does not change
the moon. You will also have a scene between Ceodore and Ursula if
you did import Yang's tale. Afterward you will learn a new band for
the two of them. Save the game and if you look to the left you will
see an elevator. You can now teleport back to the whale if you need
some items. You can also use the elevator to edit your party. Head
down and go past the stairs and there will be a secret passage on the
left. Go through for a chest with a dry ether and keep going left for
another passage. Grab the two chests with the remedy and the ether
and go back to the door to the next floor.
Subterrane 4th floor

Head to the left past the stairs and you will find a chest with a
white fang in it. Head down the stairs, go right and go through the
door for a chest with a Lustrous sword. Head out and go all the way
to the right and take the stairs to another door. Head up and left
for a chest with an x-potion and head all the way to the right. To
the right of the exit of the room is a chest with a red fang. Head
out and you will see another crystal. Before you talk to it get the
chest on the right with the blue fang. This fight is optional; you
don't have to fight if you don't want to. Make sure that you are
healed and talk to the crystal.
BOSS FIGHT: Magus Sisters
This is going to be a very hard fight. The bosses are Sandy,
Cindy, and Mindy in order of height. Each of them has a job in the
team. Sandy will cast reflect on Cindy, Mindy will cast high level
spells on Cindy, and Cindy will revive the other two when they die.
The order you need to take them out is Cindy, Mindy, Sandy. If you
want to take out Mindy first to get some rest from the spells go
ahead. First you need to slow the sisters down. Then you need to
speed up the massive damage dealers. Remember that band magic will go
through Reflect. The big secret to winning this fight is to hit them
hard and fast. The longer this fight drags on the worse your chances
of victory become. Just keep yourself healed and you should do fine.
Head down on the save spot and you will have a choice of resting.
If you say yes you will have another scene. This time it will be
between the five ninjas. This time you do not get a band. Save and
continue down the stairs on the left.

Head down and to the right and skip the door to find a chest with
a silver hourglass. Now head inside the door. Head up and to the
left to find a chest with a pair of Genji gloves. Keep heading left
and go down for a exit to the room. Head to the left for a chest with
an x-potion then head back into the room. This time take the exit on
the top. Head to the left for a chest with a ether then head to the
right and in the door. Circle around to the right and grab the chest
with a ether then head up through the door. Go right and grab the
chest with the Unicorn horn and head to the left past the crystal. Go
in the door and grab the chest with the hi-potion then head back to
the crystal. Heal up and talk to the crystal. If you played the
original game you have probably caught on to the pattern here.
BOSS FIGHT: Dr. Lugae/Barnabas

This team has a set of powerful physical attacks. Your first
target should be Barnabas. For most of the fight he will be the major
threat. One thing to beware of is if Barnabas targets one of your
characters he will use a powerful attack on them. Make sure that the
targeted character is protected and healed before you get hit. During
the beginning of the fight Lugae will only do a poison gas attack or
will heal you. Use slow to control the fight then start to attack.
Also use protect and blink to protect your weaker characters from
being pummeled. After Barnabas is gone focus on Lugae. The big worry
here is his laser attack, but it will get weaker as his HP goes down.
After the fight head down and step on the save point and choose
to rest. This time the scene will be between Palom and Porom. After
the scene you will learn the Twincast band. Now take the stairs on
the left to the next floor.
Start of by grabbing the two chests on either side of the stairs
containing a Furna Shuriken and Gaia Drum. Now head down the stairs on
the right for a chest with a Final Outfit. Now head to the right for a
secret passage. Follow the path around and you will find a secret
path that leads to another area. Grab the chest with a flame whip and
head to the left to another area. Head up the stairs to the next
floor

Grab the chest with a Genji Helm and continue heading up. Head
down and out of the room and you will find a Blood Lance. Now head
back to the 6th floor

Head back to the beginning of this floor and take the stairs on
the left this time. Head through the door and before you talk to the
crystal take the right path to a white robe. Don't worry about
healing before you talk to the crystal, you would just waste items.
BOSS FIGHT: King/Queen of Eblan

This is the easiest fight in the game. Just put the game down
and go make a sandwich. By the time you get back the fight will be
over with.
Choose to rest and watch the scene. This time it is between Luca
and Rydia with no band learned. After head up to the left and to the
next floor.
Head down and skip the first door. Go in the second and third
doors for chests with Murasame, Dragon Shield, and Protect Ring. Now
head back to the first door, head in and step on the save point for a
chance to heal. This scene is between Leonora, Porom, and Luca with
Palom sticking his head in at the end. After you will learn the Ice
Crush Band. Now save and above you will be the next Elevator. Go up
if you need to because we won't see another one for a while. Now head
around to the left and go down the stairs. Head down the stairs and
talk to the Dark Crystal for a regular fight followed by another boss
fight. Just kill them and the real fight will start.
BOSS FIGHT: Scarmiglione
This fight is a two part fight. When the fight starts the boss
will summon undead to assist him. Use fire magic to take them out
then focus on the main boss. He will counter any attacks with a
Thundaga spell. Cast shell on your team to reduce the damage. Make
sure that you are completely healed at the end of the fight. People
who have played the original game probably know what will happen when
he dies. When the second fight starts quickly switch your rows around
so your mages aren"t in the front. Then cast the usual slow, protect,
and shell and whatever you want to cast. Then use fire magic and
attacks and keep yourself healed. The good thing about this fight is
that he will no longer counter your attacks with magic. However his
physical attacks are stronger so you need to protect against that.
One way to stop his attacks is to use Blink on yourself. He will also
use an attack called the Cursed Elegy on your team. This is used to
slow your party so counter this by using haste. The third attack to
watch out for is the Poison Gas attack.
After the fight a chest will appear below you. Grab the Stardust
Rod and head back to the save point to heal. The thing about the dark
crystals is that they don't give you a heal spot after the fight.
Thankfully in all of the cases the save point is close to you. Once
you are done head back to where the crystal was and take the door on
the right to the next. From here head all the way to the back to the
next floor
Head to the left and go down the stairs for a chest with a white
fang. Now head back up the stairs and go right until you find another
set of stairs heading down. Head to the left and go up for a chest
with an x-potion, then head left through a secret passage that leads
to a set of Dragon Mail. Now go back and go down the big set of
stairs. Keep following the path and you will come to an intersection
with a choice between going down the stairs or going left. Go left
for a chest with a unicorn horn then go down the stairs we passed to
find a room. Go inside and choose to rest for a scene with Cid, Luca,
Calca, and Brina. After the scene you will learn a new band. Save and
get ready for a boss fight. Head out to the left and you will see the
next dark crystal.
BOSS FIGHT: Cagnazzo
Like with all the boss fights you need to cast slow on this boss.
This fight is very similar to the fight with the Magus Sisters in that
the longer the fight goes on the more likely you are to lose. After
he is slowed you need to cast haste on your main hitters. Believe it
or not the most effective spell to use here is ice. However you need
to use thunder spells when he starts to gather the water around him.
If you are too slow then he will use his Tsunami attack and do massive
damage to your team. One thing you can do to counter this is to make
sure of is that someone always has a turn ready so they can use a
thunder item on him. If you imported your data then you should have
plenty of those lying around. The next thing to watch out for is when
he starts to get low on health he will withdraw into his shell and
heal for 4000 points. This is the part where you have to act quickly.
During this part you will have to hit him with spells because physical
attacks do not do much damage. You have to deal more damage to him
then he can heal for or you will have to basically start over. Just
keep healed and whack him hard and fast to win the fight.
After the fight head up and garb the Sage's staff and robe then
head back to heal and save. Head back and go in the room past the
chests and go to the right to the next floor.
Follow the path and you will find a tornado. Head up and go
behind the rocks and up for a chest with a ether in it. Head back
down and take the bottom and go up the stairs and into the door. Head
to the right and you will find a secret passage that leads out of a
room to a chest with a pair of Dragon Gloves. Head back in and go to
the entrance of the room. From the entrance head all the way down and
you will find a chest with a blue fang. Head back inside and follow
the path to the left and you will find another exit to the room. Head
left and go in the other room for a chest with an x-potion in it.
There is also a secret passage in the left wall leading up to a chest
with a Dragon Helm. Head back out and go down for another save point
with a scene. This time the scene is between Edward and Harley.
After the scene save the game and head to the right for the next
crystal
BOSS FIGHT: Barbariccia
If you have Kain in your team this will be a much easier fight.
There are a couple of things to be aware of as you fight this boss.
Her two big attacks are Tornado and Stone Touch. Tornado is the big
one because it will reduce your HP to single digits. Quickly cure
anybody who has been hit and continue the fight. First cast slow like
normal then cast haste on your fighters. Every now and then she will
wrap her hair around her and will counter any attack with Tornado and
stone touch. You now have three options. Option one wait until she
releases her hair and heal and protect yourselves while she is wrapped
up. Option two go ahead and attack her and just heal from the stone
touch attack. Option three is to use Kain's Jump attack to break her
stance. When he hits she will come out of her hair and you can attack
like normal. Once she is out of her hair she will no longer counter
attack. Just make sure that your team is healed up and protected and
you should do fine. Eventually she will use tornado on herself so
just hit her once more and that is the end of the fight.
After the fight grab the chest below you for a Gungnir then go
back to heal and save. Now head to the right and follow the path to
the next area
Follow the path down and you will reach a three way split. Go to
the right for a chest with a remedy and go all the way to the right
and through the door. At the end of the path is a chest with a
Godhand. Now head back to the intersection and go south. Go down
either staircase and go in the door right next to them for a save
spot. There is no scene but it is nice to have a spot to save. Now
below this room are a lot of doors. Go in the door south west of the
save room for a chest with a ether. The door to the south east of the
save room has a chest with a x-potion. Go to the door to the left of
here for a chest with a red fang in it. Head down from the chest with
the ether and at the bottom of the room is another door with a Furna
Shuriken in it. Head to the right from here and you will find two
chests close together. The one on the right leads to a chest with an
Apollo's Harp. The one on the right will lead to a door. Skip the
door and go right for a chest with a red cap. Now head back to the
door and go in for a save point and an elevator. Step on the save
point for a scene. After the scene you will learn a new band for Yang
and Edge. Up ahead is the next crystal and fight. You will now have
two choices. If you want to get all the items for the dungeon you
need to have Edge in your team. When you go against the boss you will
have the option of fighting him with Edge alone. If you say yes and
win you will get a chest. If you say no or he is not in the team you
can still win but will not get a chest. Whatever you choose head up
to the crystal for a boss fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Rubicante
If you choose to fight with Edge alone you will need a Hermes
Sandals and Spider silk and Light Curtain. When his cloak is closed
you can attack and he will cast fire magic as a counter. This will
only hurt when his cloak is closed. When it is open he will absorb
fire magic. Just make sure that you are healed at all times and you
should do fine. Remember that Inferno is not reflected. If this is
the first and only time Edge will be in your team then go ahead and
use your throwing items. The good thing about using throw is that
Rubicante will not counter it. After he takes a lot of damage he will
start using Firaga on himself to heal. Once enough damage is done he
will use inferno on himself and end the fight.
If you are fighting with a full party the tactics you use are the
same as the previous fiends. First cast slow on him and shell and
protect on the team. The boss is weak against ice attacks, but only
when his cloak is open. If you hit him with ice when the cloak is
closed he will absorb them. If you want to take the safe path then
just cast a neutral element like thunder. Every time that he opens
and closes his cloak he will hit one of your characters. The biggest
threat to you is when his cloak is closed he might use Inferno on your
team. After you do enough damage he will start to cast spells on
himself to heal. Eventually he will come to his senses and use
Inferno on himself, ending the fight.
If you fought with Edge alone you will receive a Fire Scarf. If
you used the full party you will not have a chest. Head back to save.
Before you continue make sure that Rydia is in your team. If you
don't have her then you will have to walk all the way back to this
floor. When you are ready continue into forward to the next floor.
Head up and at the fork go up, and up at the next fork too. At
the third fork go left then up the stairs for a chest with a cottage.
Go back down and go all the way down for a chest with a Poison Axe.
Now head to the left and go all the way up for a room. In here head
to the left and exit the door on the bottom. Go all the way to the
left and go up for a chest with a ether in it. Now head down and go
down the stairs. You will now see three ways to go. Go down the
stairs on the right and go past the bridge. Head left at the
intersection and grab the chest with the Moonring blade in it. Now
head to the last bridge we passed, cross it, and head down for a save
point. Choose to rest there for a scene between Ceodore and Golbez.
Save the game and follow the path for another fight.
BOSS FIGHT: CPU/Defense Node/Attack Node

So not only are they going to resurrect monsters to attack you,
they are going to bring back machines. I guess it is better than
having to fight the entire giant. There are a few things you need to
know about the enemies. Each of them has one thing that they will do
over and over. The CPU will cast Reflect on itself, the Defense Node
will heal all enemies one at a time, and the Attack Node will attack
your team all at the same time. If both of the Nodes are defeated the
CPU will instantly kill two of your characters then revive the Nodes.
The first thing to do is use a spider silk. Do not use slow. Then
you have to take out the Defense Node. If you have Rydia have her use
summons to hit everybody while focusing on the Defense Node. Be
careful not to kill the Attack Node. Once the Defense Node is gone
focus on the CPU. If you have problems with the Attack Node's laser
attack then hit it a little. Its attack power is based on his HP.
Once again because summons are not affected by Reflect use Sylph to
attack the main body and heal at the same time. Once the CPU is gone
then it is time to destroy the last Node.
After the fight grab the chests with a Yoichi Bow and Arrow. Now
head up and go to the next floor.
This floor is basically split into two halves, the left half and
the right half, both with a boss at the end. To continue to the next
floor you must take both paths. Because I'm left handed I will start
with the left path
---Left Path---
Start by going down the left path. When you get to the
intersection head left and go down for a chest with a white Tiger
Mask. Now head back and go to the left. Keep going up to the back
of the area for a chest with a Light Curtain. Now head back down and
head right to find the stairs to the next area. From here go to the
left and at the intersection go up. At the next intersection go left
and grab the Fuma Shuriken and head right into the house. Grab the
Dry ether from the chest and go up the stairs. Save the game and make
the moon phase what you want for a boss fight. When you are ready
head out the door below you and talk to the old man.
BOSS FIGHT: Leviathan
As with all bosses slow him down first then work on buffing your
defenses. There are two things that this boss does. For his normal
damage dealer he will use ice attacks. The big issue is his Tidal
Wave attack. Unlike the other Eidolons there is no way to know when
it is coming. Thankfully this is not one of the Eidolon battles where
you have stop attacking at the end. If you have Asura already she
will appear Just keep hitting him and the battle will end when you
have done enough damage.
After the fight Leviathan will return to normal and will then
reJoin Rydia as a summon. Grab the chest with the Mystic Whip and
then head back to heal and save. If this is your first path then go
back to the beginning of the floor. If this is your second path then
head to the right outside the house for a stairway to the next area.
From here head up and you will reach the next floor
---Right Path---
Head down the right path. At the next intersection go down and
then go right. Before you go up the stairs head to the right and grab
the chest with the Lunar Curtain. Now head up the stairs. Head to
the left and there will be two chests with a silver hourglass and a
gold hourglass. Now head back and follow the path till you see a
house. Go inside the house and grab the cottage from the chest then
head upstairs. Heal and save the game and change the moon to a phase
for a boss battle. When you are ready head out the door and talk to
the woman
BOSS FIGHT: Asura
This fight can really suck. She has three faces and three main
attacks. When the head matches the body she will heal herself. If it
is a grey color then she will raise herself, which is useless. The
orange face will make her cast protect on herself. The only other
thing is that she will counter every attack with a physical attack.
However that is her only offensive move for now so you have plenty of
time to prepare. Thankfully this is not one of the Eidolon battles
where you have stop attacking at the end. Do use slow because it will
be useful later in the fight. Cast protect on the team then use blink
or decoys. This will make her miss that character two times. Once
you are done start on the offensive. Make sure that you keep Blink
going because those attacks hurt bad. After you do enough damage she
will start attacking you directly. Just stay healed and blinked and
you should do fine.
After the fight grab the chest with the Minerva Bustier. Now
head back and save your game and heal. If this is your first path
then go back to the beginning of the floor. If this is your second
then head to the left and go down the stairs. Head up the middle path
and go to the next floor.
We are almost done with the first section of the final dungeon.
However we need to make some changes in our party. To win this fight
properly you need to have Cecil, Golbez, Rosa, and Ceodore. Whoever
you have for your 5th is up to you. When you are ready head up to the
next boss fight. There are three different scenarios for this boss
fight
BOSS FIGHT: Dark Knight (scenario 1)
If Golbez and Cecil are not in your team this will be a quick
fight. The Boss will use Darkness on you and then kill you.
For this fight you will have Golbez and Cecil, but not Rosa and
Ceodore. After a few turns the boss will attack Cecil and Golbez will
save him. The fight will start again but everybody will be at 1 HP
and Golbez will not be in the fight. Heal everybody and start the
attack. After the fight Cecil will return, but Golbez will be dead
forever.
For this fight you will have Golbez, Cecil, Rosa, and Ceodore.
For the first part of this fight just attack him with physical
attacks. When he hits you do not worry about healing unless you are
about to die. After a few turns the boss will use Darkness to take
everybody to 1 HP. When he tries to kill everybody Cecil will protect
them. The boss will go to kill Cecil and Golbez will protect him.
The fight will start again with Golbez alone at 1 HP. Then Rosa will
come in and heal him. Now fight and keep yourself healed. After a
few turns Ceodore will get up and join the fight with your other
character. Cecil will be on the floor but do not worry about reviving
him, it can't be done. Keep attacking and healing. Just be sure not
to use magic on him other than slow or you will get hit with a Black
Fang and taken to 1 HP. After you do enough damage the boss will turn
his attention to Ceodore. After the first Black Fang Cecil will rise
up and protect his son. Cecil will now return to his old self. This
means that all of his stats are at the same place as everyone else's
and will do massive damage. Keep attacking and healing and the fight
should end quickly.
After the fight grab the sword and go forward for a scene with
the Mysterious Girl. Step on the platform to go to a new area.
Before you do anything else go back up and return to the Lunar Whale.
Save, heal, and restock then step on the elevator. We are going to
take a detour to the place called ???. Here you can trade all of your
colored tales for items and your Adamantite for armor. If you want to
get the tails they are located in the Subterrane in different rooms
under different moon phases. They are

The only tail you can't get on the moon is the Rainbow Tail. You
get this by trading the small tails on the earth. The item it gets
you is the Limit Ring. You can also explore the Developer's Room in
the upper left corner of the first floor.
When you are ready step on the elevator and go to the Depths.
Depths (crmde)
Depths 1st floor
If you came from the Subterrane go down until you see a door. If
you do inside this door you will find the elevator to the Whale, an
item bunny, a save point, and a heal spot. Head up the stairs to the
right of the door. Go to the right and go down two stairs. Head to
the left and you will see stairs going down to the next floor.
Depths 2nd floor

Head down the stairs and go to the right for a chest with a
Crystal Shield. Go back to the stairs we started on and go down the
stairs below you. Head to the left past the stairs and go down to
find another chest with an x-potion. Go back to the stairs we passed
and follow the path to another set of big stairs that lead up to where
we just were. Go all the way down from here to find the stairs to the
next floor.
Depths 3rd floor
From the stairs go to the left and the right to find chests with
a Cat-Ear hood and Dry Ether. Go back to the main stairs and go down.
Go down the middle staircase and you will see three more staircases.
Go down both sides and collect the chests with an x-potion and a
silver hourglass. Now head back up and go down the center staircase
and go all the way down to the next area.
Depths 4th floor
Go down and once again you will have three staircases to choose
from. Take the one on the left and follow the path to a chest with an
x-potion. Take the right path to a chest with a Protect Ring. Go
down the middle path to the next level. Head all the way down until
you see a warp panel. Head to the left for a chest with a remedy.
Take the path on the right to find a secret passage leading to a chest
with a Brave Suit. Now go step on the warp panel to the next floor.
Depths 5th floor

Head down from here and you will see a save point. Use it and
choose to rest for a scene between Golbez and Cecil. We are now in an
x shaped room. At the four corners of the room are small rooms with
crystals in them. Each of the four crystals hold a boss from the 1st
final fantasy game. The upper left has Lich, the upper right has
Marlilith, the lower right has Tiamat, and the lower left has Kraken.
If at any time you need to return to the Whale there is an Elevator
below the save point.
BOSS FIGHT: Lich

Before you start this fight make sure that you cast Float on
everybody. This is a very old boss from the original Final Fantasy
game. This is an undead monster, so cast fire and light magic on it.
Some of its attacks include an earthquake attack, Bio, a sleep attack,
haste, and Black Hole. After he casts Black Hole make sure that you
reapply Float. Have your black mage use their highest level fire
spell. If your white mage has Holy then you can use that for some
massive damage. To protect yourself from his normal physical attacks
use Blink or Protect. If you keep yourself healed you should win this
fight with no problems.
After the fight, grab the chest with the Assassin's Dagger then
return to the save point.
BOSS FIGHT: Marlilith

This time we have a fire creature on your hands. This means to
have the greatest damage you need to cast ice spells. There are some
attacks that you need be careful of. The first thing is that she will
counter all attacks. For magic she might Silence them and for
physical attacks she will use her own physical attack. The hardest
thing is that she will use Entice on your characters. And of course
as a fiend of fire she will of course use fire attacks on you. These
include Firaga and Blaze. Keep attacking and she should fall quickly.
After the fight grab the chest with the Rising Sun and return to
the save point.
BOSS FIGHT: Kraken

This time we have a water fiend. Hit it hard and fast with your
strongest thunder spells. As always use slow to try to gain control
of the battle. A few moves to watch out for is mainly his counter
attacks. When you use a physical attack he will counter with
Constrict, so that might not be a good idea. For magic attacks he
will counter with Bile which will sap your hp. He will also use
Blizzaga. When he starts to gather energy he is about to use his
Tidal Wave attack. This is a powerful attack and will seriously hurt
your team. When he starts to glow heal up and go on the offensive and
try to finish him off before he attacks you. Keep healing and he will
fall.
After the fight grab the chest with the Triton's Dagger and go
back to the save point.
BOSS FIGHT: Tiamat
This time we have the fiend of Wind. This one is the strongest
of four fiends. Unlike the others he does not have an elemental
weakness. Plus most Black Magic will be countered by Maelstrom.
First off cast slow on him and haste on your white mage. This will
give you a big speed advantage against him. One of his attacks is a
Thunderbolt attack that which will hit one character. Another attack
is the Thermal Ray which will hit everybody for a lot of points. He
will also use a poison attack on your team but don't worry about
healing it until after the fight because he will just use it again.
You need to be very careful about using magic. He can easily wipe out
your team if he casts Thermal Ray immediately after. If you do have
Rydia then eidolons will not make him use Maelstrom. Just be very
careful and you should win the fight easily.
After the fight grab the chest with the Dragon Claws and return
to the save point.
When you are finished with the fiends save and heal and head down
to another warp panel.
Depths 6th floor
Head down until you see two stair cases going down. Go down
either one and head into the room. Inside here are three chests. The
one in the middle contains monsters. These are just old monsters that
we have killed before so just take them out. At the end of the fight
you will receive the Hypnocrown. Grab the other two chests for an x-
potion and Dry Ether. Now head out of the room and go down and you
will see the stairs to the next floor. Before you go down them go to
both sides of the stairs and grab the two chests with a light curtain
and lunar curtain. Now go down the stairs to the next floor.
Depths 7th floor
Now we have a bit of a maze to go through. First head down and
go down the stairs. Go to the right for a regular save point and use
it if you need it. Now head back to the stairs and go down and follow
the path to a chest with a Spider silk. Now go back to the stairs and
go left down the other stairs. Go to the left and go through the
door. Go to the right and grab the chest with the crystal gloves and
head back out the door. Head to the right and go down and you will
see the door to the next area. Go to the left for a chest with a x-
potion and go to the next floor
Depths 8th floor
Go down the stairs directly below you and follow the path to a
chest with a Red jacket then return to the entrance. Now head down
the other set of stairs and go the right for a chest with a Hermes
Sandals in it. Now go to the left and follow the path until you find
the portal to the next floor.
Depths 9th floor
We are once again in another crystal floor. Go down two sets of
stairs from here and you will find the save point and the elevator.
Step on the save point for a scene between Kain and Golbez. You will
then learn the Spiral Blow Band. Like before these bosses can be
fought in any order so read the info and just choose whatever one
seems the easiest. From the stairs go to the right and bypass the
warp panel and you will find another crystal.
BOSS FIGHT: Iron Giant
This is a hard fight if you are not prepared. This boss mainly
uses very powerful physical attacks and will occasionally use Crush to
kill your character in one shot if you spend too much time not
attacking. Also if you cast spells on him he will use Meteor to do
massive damage to your team. Also he will counter your attacks with
his own physical attacks. To prevent the destruction of your team use
Protect and Blink to keep yourself from getting hit. Just be very
careful and you should be victorious.
After the fight grab the Gigant Axe and return to the save point.
From here go to the left and grab the chest with the Crystal helm.
From the save point go down the stairs next to the elevator and go
left to find the next crystal.
BOSS FIGHT: King Behemoth
This boss only has two attacks. His only attack until he dies is
a physical attack that he will also counter with. When he dies he
will cast Meteor and try to take the team with him. When the fight
starts cast slow using a spider silk and cast shell and protect. If
you want to use magic on him make sure that it does a lot of damage.
The boss does not have any weakness so just use what is strongest.
Just make sure that you have full health throughout the entire battle
and you should do fine.
After the fight grab the chest with the Tiger fangs in it and go
back to the save point. From here go up and to the left for another
crystal
BOSS FIGHT: Beelzebub

Where the heck is that flyswatter when you need it? Anyway this
is a fairly simple boss. This is because he will just cast spells.
He will also cast haste and blink on himself. The biggest threat to
the team is that he will use confuse on you. There are two ways to
take care of this boss. The first way is to cast reflect on your
entire team and just attack the boss. The other way is to just heal
after his attacks. If you want to do the first on you will need
multiple white mages in your team. Trying to keep up Reflect on a
team of five with only one mage is going to be hard. The other way is
a lot simpler. Just cast shell on the team and slow on him and whack
on him with attacks and your strongest spells until he dies. You
should be familiar with Blink by now but for those who haven't used it,
it will make your next two physical attacks miss. This does not work
with magic and all your attacks will hit. Just keep him slowed a
little and keep haste on yourself and you should do fine.
After the fight grab the chest with a Loki's Lute then go back to
the save point. Go up the stairs and go right and grab the chest with
the x-potion then go up to the warp point where we started. From here
head up to the final crystal.
BOSS FIGHT: Astaroth

This is a very similar fight to the fight with Beelzebub. This
boss will cast a lot of spells on you. It will also use physical
attacks that will drain HP from you. A third attack to watch out for
is the Embrace attack. This will stone the character while draining
their HP. Start of by doing the usual spells of slow, protect, shell,
and haste. From there use physical attacks and your strongest spells
to bring him down. If you want to cast reflect to try to counter his
spells then go ahead and do it. Just keep yourself healed and he will
fall.
After the fight grab the chest with the Seraphim's Mace and head
back to the save point. Head to the right and step on the warp panel
to the next floor.
Depths 10th floor
Head to the right and get the two chests with a remedy and
phoenix down. Go back to the panel and head down and go down. Grab
the chest with the x-potion and head back to the stairs and go to the
right. You will see three doors so go in the middle one. Go up and
grab the chest with the Black Garb then head back out. Head to the
right and go to the next floor.
Depths 11th floor

Head to the right and follow the path until the intersection. Go
down the stairs and follow the path to two chests with a cottage and a
silver hourglass. Head back to the intersection and go to the right
and go down a few stairs to the next intersection. Go to the right
and you will find a chest with a Crystal Mail. Head back and go to
the left and follow the path to the next floor.
Depths 12th floor
Head down to be taken to a room with a chest containing a Ribbon.
Now head back and head left to the next intersection. Go up and grab
the chest with the Dry Ether and head back and go down to find the
next warp panel. Head to the left and follow the path to a chest with
a x-potion and go on the panel to the next floor
Depths 12th floor
Head straight up for the save point and the elevator. Rest there
for a scene between Kain and Cecil. This room is set up in a circle
fashion. The crystal in the lower left has Cerberus, the one in the
upper left has the Twinhead Dragon, the one in the upper right has
Echidna, and the one in the lower right has Ahriman.
BOSS FIGHT: Cerberus

This fight can be a bit of a pain. For starters this boss can do
three attacks in one turn. Thankfully his attacks are not that strong
but they can add up. He will cast spells that will hit everybody and
will do heavy physical damage to the team. For starters cast slow to
hinder him and then use shell and protect on the team. Also use haste
on your white mage so that she can use her magic more often. This
boss has no weakness so just use your strongest spells and attacks to
bring him down.
After the fight grab the chest with the Thor"s Hammer and go back
to heal and save.
BOSS FIGHT: Twinhead Dragon
This boss is strong because he can attack twice in one turn. He
has a powerful physical attack and a strong magic attack that he will
focus on one character at a time. He might also counter physical
attacks with constrict. Start off by using slow and the usual
enhancements on your team. Because the dragon has no weakness just
use your strongest spells and attacks to kill him.
After the fight grab the chest with the Holy Lance and go back to
heal and save.
BOSS FIGHT: Echidna

Cast Float before you start this fight. This boss has a lot of
very devastating attacks. He will use Death, Magic Buster {which will
steal magic from the target), quake, and a physical attack. The trick
to winning this fight is to take her down quickly. The Magic Buster
will tend to take all magic from the target unless they have a high
MP. If this happens to one of your mages then quickly give them an
ether so they can continue to fight. The quake spell is a very
powerful attack but if you used Float it will not hurt you. Just use
your strongest attacks and spells to win the fight.
After the fight garb the chests with the Perseus Bow and Arrows
then go back to heal and save.
BOSS FIGHT: Ahriman

This is both an easy fight and a hard fight. It is easy because
the boss will only use two attacks. These are Doom and Haste. It is
hard because he will start off the fight using doom on the whole
party. After that he will cast haste on the team to make them die
quicker. This is actually a good thing. This will cause you to die
at different rates. This will give you a chance to revive a character
to live to the next round. Don"t worry about healing your team.
Because the boss doesn"t do attacks you don"t have to heal. Once
everybody has died he will cast Doom once again and the cycle will
start over. However he will not cast a second doom until the first
has worn off. Once the fight is won don't forget to heal so you don't
die on the way to the save point.
After the fight grab the chest with the Masamune then go back to
heal and save.
Once all the fights are done head up the big stairs next to the
save point to find the warp point to the next area.
Depths 13th floor

Head to the left and at the intersection go down and to the right
for a chest with a remedy. Head back up and go to the right and go up
at the next intersection. Grab the chest with the x-potion and go
back down. Keep going down for the door to the next floor.
Depths 14th floor
Head to the left and grab the chest with the Dry ether and then
go back and down. At the next intersection go to the left and in the
door for a chest with Lunar Mail. Head back to the intersection then
go down. At the next intersection if you go down you will find a
strong enemy called Omega. This is an optional fight so if you don't
want to fight it just continue.
BOSS FIGHT: Omega

Right from the start he will cast reflect on himself. This means
that you can't use spells that don't come from items. Remember that
Summons do go through reflect. He will also use an attack called
Omeguard. This makes all of your attacks do minimal damage. However
it will break after a few attacks so keep it up. This boss will also
use Black Hole to take away all status enhancements on your team.
Another thing is that this boss will use Blaster to Paralyze or kill
one of your team members. One big attack from the boss is it's Surge
Cannon which will hit everybody in the team for a lot of damage. This
Boss also uses a Thermal Ray attack which you are probably very
familiar with by now. He also uses a physical attack called Arm to
hit one of your characters and might confuse him. The good thing
about this attack is that it can't kill you. And he also has a Toxic
attack to poison you with. Later in the fight he will start to use
stone gaze as well as Maelstrom.
From the intersection with Omega head left to the next

intersection. Here go left for a chest with a White fang. Now head
back to the intersection and go down for the next area.
Depths 14th floor

Head to the left and go right past the stairs for a chest with a
Remedy. Go down those stairs for a x-potion and go back to the
entrance. Head to the right and follow the path to find a room with a
crystal and an elevator. Before you enter the fight make sure to use
Float.
BOSS FIGHT: Gilgamesh
This boss is a bit of a pushover. For most of the fight he will
just use physical attacks on your team that won't do that much. Start
of by casting slow and the usual spells on the team. Then just start
to attack him. He might use Bad Breath but just use a remedy or
Esuna. If he uses the Venoumous Gas attack just wait until after the
fight to heal it. After enough damage he will start to talk and cast
spells on himself. Now it is a race to defeat him. If you take too
long he will use an attack that will kill everybody at once. He has a
pattern of Jump, 4 attacks at once, Laser Barrage, and then
Zantentsuken. Just hit him quickly with your most powerful attacks
and he will die muttering about a Bartz.
After the fight you will receive the Excalipoor. Don't bother
equipping it because it is a worthless weapon. After the fight choose
to rest and watch the scene between Ceodore and Kain. Afterwards they
will learn the Double Jump Band. Save and use the elevator if you
need to. Up ahead is another powerful optional boss like Omega. If
you are going to skip it for now then change the moon phase to Waxing.
It will be vital for the next mandatory boss fight. From the room
with the save point head directly down and grab the chest with the
Lunar Shield. Head back up and look for a path to going left and down
and you will find a clear area. Head down and go to the left and
follow the path to an OPTIONAL BOSS in the chest.
BOSS FIGHT: Nova Dragon

Like Omega this is a very powerful Boss. If you are unprepared
then don't bother even opening the chest. He will start of the fight
by using Tidal Wave and it will do massive damage to your team. After
the opening attack you need to cast slow on him. Then focus on
reviving your team. You might also want to cast haste on your white
mage so she can heal more. Some of the attacks you can expect from
the boss are a very strong physical attack, Doom, Cursed Elegy, Death,
Thunderbolt, Venomous Gas, Maelstrom, Thermal Rays, Embrace, Diamond
Dust, and another Tidal Wave. After a while he will cast Shell and
Protect on himself. For your characters have your BM use Flare, have
your WM cast enhancements when you don't have to heal and haste to
counter Cursed Elegy, and have your fighters attack and use potions
when they have to. When your white mage has some free time DO NOT USE
HOLY because it will heal him. When you have done enough damage he
will use Meteor on your team. If you survive that attack you will win
the fight.
When you beat Nova you will get Ragnarok. You might want to go
back and save now. From the path leading to Nova head down to the
Depths 14th floor/Twisted Space
This area is a bit of a maze. Thankfully there are no monsters
on this floor. Head to the right and at the intersection go down
three sets of stairs and go left to find a glowing spot. Talk to the
spot to go to the next area. This area is pretty straight forward.
At the intersection go to the right and up at the next one. Here you
will find another crystal. Once again make sure that it is a Waxing
moon if you want to survive this fight.
BOSS FIGHT: Atomos
This boss will open up with Meteor and follow up with Meteor. In
fact it is the only attack that he will use. If you are lucky enough
to get a turn before him cast slow on him and haste on your healer.
You are really going to need white magic in this fight. After you
get healed from the initial casting of meteor cast shell to weaken the
damage of the later ones. To defeat this boss just keep yourself
healed and use your strongest attacks and spells.
After the fight the space will return to normal and go down to
open the chest with the Robe Of Lords then go up and into the door.
Depths 15th floor
To the left of the door is the elevator and to the right is the
save point. Choose to rest and watch the scene with Edge, Cecil,
Rydia, and Edward. Save your game and it is time to find some
treasures. From the save point head to the right and there will be a
secret path going down to a chest with a pair of Lunar Gloves. Head
back and go down a little to the left. While going down try to go
left and then up for a chest with a monster in it. The Malboro Menace
is something that we have faced before so just take the same steps to
win the fight. Once it is over you will receive an Elixir. Go back
down and continue going left until you reach the wall. Go down the
stairs and inside the door on the right. Go up the stairs and through
the door for a chest with a monster. Kill it for an elixir and go
back to the entrance and go right to find an x-potion and another door
going out. That is it for the treasures so go back to the save point
and heal. Now we have two crystals to break. For both of them take
the stairs to the left or right of the save point and go all the way
down to find them. The one on the left has Orthros and the one on the
right has Ghost Train
BOSS FIGHT: Orthros
Before you start this fight make sure that Float is on. This
fight has two distinctive parts. During the first part only girls
will be able to attack him without being counter attacked. Like
always use slow and whatever protective spells you want. There are a
few attacks to watch out for. The first one is Bad breath which you
should know what it does by now. If a male attacks he will counter
with Bile for magic and Constrict for physical. His main physical
attack is Tentacle, which will hit twice. He will also use an
earthquake attack, but if you have float on it will do nothing. After
you do enough damage Orthros will change and so will the music. He
will now be a lot more aggressive and will counter attacks from women
as well. His tentacle attack will now hit 4 times and he will absorb
elemental magic and use the same one as a counter. If you use Meteor
he will cast flare so don't worry about getting the entire party hit.
He will also cast Maelstrom on the team and use a Tidal Wave attack to
hit everybody. If you do cast spells on him make sure that they do
not have an element on them. That means using spells like Flare and
Meteor. And now his Bad Breath attack will hit everybody, not just
one person. He may also cast Berserk to send your fighters into an
attacking frenzy. If it becomes too much to handle just kill off the
character and bring him back to life. Just hit him quickly and keep
yourself healed and you should win without a problem.
After the fight you will receive a Kitchen Knife, which is a
throw item for the Ninjas. Now head back to the save point and heal.
BOSS FIGHT: Ghost Train
Before you start this fight make sure that your rows are
reversed. This fight will automatically start of as a back attack.
This is an undead monster so using light spells is the best thing to
do. For some reason it does not have a weakness to fire. If your
white mage has Holy now would be a good time to use it. Also if you
have the Limit Ring your white mage should be able to do massive
damage to the boss. And as always cast slow on the boss to give
yourself more time in between attacks to heal. This boss has some
powerful attacks. One of these is the Wheel attack which will hurt
one person. It will also use Holy, which is weird because it is a
ghost. And last but not least it will cast doom on you to try to kill
you. Just keep attacking and he should die.
After the fight grab the chest with Mutsunokami and head back to
save and heal. When you have beaten both bosses head down the stairs
from the save point and step on the panel to the next floor.
Depths 15th floor
NOTE: While wandering around on this floor you may fight an enemy
called Deathgaze. It will start off by casting death on the entire
team. After a few more attacks it will run away. Remember that the
damage you deal to it will stay on it. You do not have to kill it in
one fight. If he starts to get the upper hand on you remember that
you can run away as well. Head down and you will see three
staircases. Take the stairs on the left for a chest with a Dry Ether
and the one down the middle for an optional Crystal. Before you talk
to the crystal cast float.
BOSS FIGHT: Ultima Weapon

This is another of the hard fights like Omega and Nova. Like
always the first thing you want to do is cast slow on him. Have your
black mage use flare and have your fighters attack. Don't be afraid
to use Ethers or items like that because it will be a long fight. In
order to do more damage cast haste on all of your characters. Blink
is also a good idea to get rid of the boss's physical attack. Don't
bother having your white mage cast holy because her magic is better
suited for healing from Ultima's attacks. Ultima's attacks include a
strong physical attack, Crush, Flare, Tornado,
After the fight you will get the Ultima Weapon. Go down the
stairs in front of the crystal and go down and into the room. Grab
the chest with the remedy and go to the right and out the door. To
the right of here are two white crystals on the floor. Walk between
them and you will find another crystal. If you have defeated
Deathgaze then you will be able to have Palom, Porom, or Leonora learn
the dualcast ability. You can only teach it to one of them so choose
wisely. Head back and go up for a chest with light curtain. Go back
and go left and down the stairs for the warp panel to the next floor
Depths 16th floor

Nothing to find here so just follow the path.
Depths 17th floor

Nothing to find here so just follow the path.
Depths 18th floor

Go down the stairs and go right down another set of stairs to
find a panel leading to a chest with a Lunar Helm. Now head back and
follow the path to the next floor.
Depths 19th floor

Nothing to find here so just follow the path
Depths 20th floor
Head up from the stairs to find a save point and the elevator.
We have a powerful boss coming up so change the moon to Waxing if you
want to live. You will also need to have Rydia in your party to even
get a turn. Before you go cast float on your team. When you are ready
head up the stairs.
BOSS FIGHT: Mysterious girl/Bahamut

Good luck with this fight. This is the hardest mandatory fight
in the game. The only reason the final boss is harder is because it
is longer and drains more MP. The VERY FIRST THING YOU DO is cast
Slow on Bahamut. You can't attack the girl so don't worry about it.
Every now and then she will cast haste on Bahamut to nullify the Slow.
Cast it again. Every time you fight him the Girl will start off the
fight by casting Meteor on your team. Quickly heal up and start
attacking. You have to do as much damage as you can before the first
Megaflare hits. And don't bother using spells like shell and reflect
because the girl will just use black hole before the Megaflare is
released. Quickly revive your white mage if she needs it and try to
cast float before Quake hits your team. I won't lie when I say that
you might die a lot before this boss goes down. My level for this
fight was in the mid 60's and I managed to finish the fight before the
first Megaflare hit. If you have Leviathan and Asura they will appear
and try to talk to Bahamut. He will destroy them and then turn on the
girl and destroy her. That will be the end of the fight.
After the fight Bahamut will join you as a summon if you have
Leviathan and Asura. If you don't he will be lost forever. Either
way head back down to heal and save. Now head up and go around the
hole to find the door to the next area.
Depths 21st floor
Just head up and go to the next floor.
Depths 22nd floor
In here you will start to encounter creatures called Maenad's.
Run if you want or fight them, it is your choice. To the left and
right of the center isle are two chests containing a dry ether and an
x-potion. Go through the door to the next floor.
Depths 23rd floor
Go up and you will find 8 Maenad's standing around. Don't worry
they won't do anything to you. You can actually talk to them to find
out some info. When you are done head up to the next floor.
Depths 24th floor

In here you will find an army of sleeping Maenads. Go up to the
back and you will see one of them glowing. The girl will come out and
ask for her orders. Rydia will tell her to stay there and the door to
the next floor will appear.
Depths 25th floor
In here you will find tons of stands with crystals on them. You
now have to search all of them to find the 8 crystals that belong to
your world. Also in here is a save point and the elevator. Once you
have all eight of them head to the back of the room and go to the next
floor.
Depths 26th floor
There are no enemies from here on so don't worry. Nothing here
so just follow the path.
Depths 27th floor

Nothing here so just follow the path.
Depths 28th floor

Nothing here so just follow the path
Depths 29th floor

Follow the path to the final save point and elevator. Change the
moon to a phase that won't hurt you too much and head down to the last
floor
Bottommost Depths
Head forward and talk to the thing in front of you.
FINAL BOSS FIGHT: Creator

As always the boss has many different forms. For the first form
he is referred to as ???. Don't worry about doing anything other than
physical attacks for this first part. He will not attack until the
front part of his pod comes off. After the thing disappears he will
start to attack. Some of his attacks include Drain and Osmose. If he
starts to take too much HP and MP then just use items to recover.
Don't waste MP on him yet. This is nothing to worry about so just
keep attacking and the first part of the fight will end.
After the scene the fight will start again. Now you have to
fight a little blue puppy. This is another simple fight. The boss
will only counter your attacks. This will allow you to set the pace
of the fight. If you attack with magic he will counter with flare,
which can be reflected. He will also use reflect so be careful of
that happening. Just be careful and keep healed at all times and you
should do fine.
If your MP is getting a little low then don't be afraid to use
Ethers or Elixirs. Now he will attack you but he will not counter
you. Some of the attacks that he will use are Megaflare, Flare, Holy,
Binding Glare, and Meteor. To counter him use slow to hinder him and
shell to reduce damage from his spells. Also haste your white mage to
allow her to heal more. Cast strong spells and Summons and hit him
hard to end this part of the fight.
After a little dialogue box the fight will begin again. He will
start to fly towards you but you can't hurt him so just let it play
out.
After all of the scenes the final part of the fight will begin.
First off go into the item menu and select the Crystal. After you use
that he will be able to be damaged. Start by casting slow and haste
ONLY on your white mage. He will use Black Hole often so there is no
point casting a lot of status enhancements. You also don't want to
use elemental magic. Flare, Meteor, and summons will do very good on
him. If you start to run out of MP, which will likely happen because
this is a long fight, then use a dry ether or Elixir. There are a few
attacks that you need to know about. His Multiply attack will damage
the entire team for a lot of points. His Metastasis attack will for
some reason hurt him for 3000 points. Of course by now you are very
familiar with the Black Hole attack. Transform will change his
elemental weakness, but if you have flare then that is not a problem.
And his worst attack is Regenerate which will heal him for 9999
points. And every now and then he will use an attack from an Eidolon.
And of course, like a bunch of the previous bosses he has a quake
attack. While it is hard to make sure that float is on the attack
does not do as much damage as some of his other attacks. When he
starts to glow pink he is about to use his Explode attack. This will
deal a lot of damage as well as put sap on your team. One of his
strongest attacks is Split which will do massive damage to a single
member, possibly killing them. Later in the fight he will start to
cast Toad and Mini on you, but that shouldn't be a problem. He will
also start to use an attack called Fuse that is like Drain.
Now the fight is finished, but we are not done. Heal up some
magic and your HP and reverse your rows. You now have to run to the
room with Bahamut. As you retreat you will be attacked by the
Creator. Just attack him and you will eventually run. He will even
attack himself, isn't that nice of him. Don't bother trying to save
or use the elevator because they both don't work. When you reach the
24th floor you will see the maenad that you told to stay put. She will
come with you so continue down. Now as you run the other Maenads will
help the girl to escape. You only survive because you are with her.
Just keep going until you reach Bahamut's room. A final fight will
occur where a Maenad will cast Meteor on the Creator, finally killing
him. Keep going to the next room and watch the scene.
CONGRAGULATIONS: YOU HAVE BEATEN FINAL FANTASY 4 THE AFTER

YEARS!!!!!
Final Challenge (crmfc)

But we are not completely done yet. We have one extra thing we
can do. Go to the place where you can trade tails and go to the
second floor. You will notice that there is a new person at the
table. Talk to the bunny on the right and he will offer you a new
challenge for 500000 gil. To do this challenge you will split your
group into three teams of five. When you are ready press start and
say yes. The first team is up first.
BOSS FIGHT: Giant's Torso/ Giant's Right Arm

The first thing you do is cast slow, like always. Now focus all
damage onto the Torso. After a few moments the giant will activate
guard mode and the arm will cover the torso. Once this happens you
will start getting attacked. The only attack for a while will be
Stone Touch, which is easy to counter. When you see something say
Begin Charging followed by a countdown he is about to use his Laser
attack. This will very likely kill one of your characters. To avoid
this attack you have to deal enough damage to the arm to make it move.
Heal up after the attack and continue the offense. After you do
enough damage the arm will back off and you can continue attacking the
torso. The best thing to do is to use magic on the torso because it
will use blink. The arm will also start using physical attacks on the
team now. Some of the attacks you will see at this point include Holy
and Thermal Rays. Once the arm is destroyed the Torso will self-
Destruct. If you kill the torso first the arm will be destroyed as
well.
Now we go to the second team.
BOSS FIGHT: Giant's Chest/Head/Left Arm
Like before start of using slow. Now start your attacks. Some
attacks that you can expect are a physical attack, Holy, Curaja, Bad
Breath, Flare, Bile, Firaga. If you attack the arm after a few
attacks you will see a sign saying Entering Hyperactive State. This
will bring the arm back to life so stop attacking it. If you attack
the head you will get a message saying starting Summon program. All
this does is summon a monster to help hurt you. Don't worry about the
monster and keep attacking the giant. After the monster goes away and
you attack the head you will get a message saying attack level 2. Now
it will start to attack you more. The same goes for attack level 3
and 4. The piece you might want to start attacking is the chest. The
reason for this is that there in not a counter attack for the chest.
After the chest is gone focus on the head. When you get a message
saying Starting Rush Mode it is getting ready to use its Chain
Reaction attack. This will end this fight.
Now it is time for the third team.

BOSS FIGHT: 3 Counter System/ 3 Defense System/ Control System
As with all fights use Slow quickly. When a message pops up
saying Starting Genocide Mode it is getting ready to use its Object
199 Attack. Start your attack by taking out the Control System.
While you attack the Control System will use Heal so attack quickly.
The reason you attack the Control first is that it will regenerate the
small orbs quickly. But you do want to take out the ones in the front
because those attack you. Also with all of the orbs it will give the
Control more chances to miss healing itself. If you are using Rydia
in this part using Bahamut will take out all orbs at once.
If you win you will get three silver apples and two soma drops.
