Follow this Ark 2 walkthrough for Part 22, guiding you through prison escapes, switch puzzles, and crucial battles to rescue villagers and defeat enemies.
Walkthrough
- 1Enter the B1 area where Elc is incognito. The NW switch opens a door to the middle lever.
- 2Reach the chest with the great [Firangi] sword (4/12, 13/23) in the southeast.
- 3Enter the room with the [Strengthen Fruit] treasure. The lever inside opens the north door.
- 4Take the item, and the 3rd lever lowers a stairway near the B1 entrance.
- 5Activate the fourth, southwest switch to open the exit door, located NE of the B1 entrance.
- 6Proceed north to a zig-zag path leading east to a chest with [B Ring Armor] (2/10, 10/19). Elc cannot equip this.
- 7In a dead-end room near the chest, flip a switch to smooth a floor gap.
- 8Backtrack through the zig-zag and go through the door with a lever.
- 9Upon reaching the prison area, Poco rejoins. His cell has an empty chest and a savepoint on the bed.
- 10Head east to a room with a [Life Nut] and [Magic Sprig]. Enemies will warp in for skirmish #1.
- 11The way north is locked, so go south into a trapdoor leading to a downstairs prison.
- 12Prison Switch Puzzle:
- Flip two switches in the starting room to open paths west and south.
- 13Go west, flip both switches to open a path south.
- 14Go south twice, flip the left green switch to open a path south in the first room.
- 15Go south twice from the first room, flip both switches to open the exit.
- 16Return to the starting room and go east for a [Magic Canceler] accessory (0/0, 7/7, Increase Magic Defense, Fire-type).
- 17Exit east and return to the trapdoor room. Sidestep the pitfall and flip switches to deactivate the trap and lower a stairway.
- 18Go north for a second pincer battle (#2). Use Battle Drum & Retaliation against monks using Sleep Wind. Invincible can help with counterattacks.
- 19At the nearby bifurcation, head west to find the villagers.
- 20After scenes, the villagers escape and Elc stays for a solo battle (#3). Use Invincible in the NW corner of the locked door area to counterattack birds using Thunder Breath (inflicts ATK-down).
- 21Elc rejoins Poco's team beyond a secret tunnel. Lishena is in a cave with ZZZing monsters.
- 22Poco fights alone against two monsters in battle #4. Heal the girls if they are damaged. Use Speed Ocarina. Use Atrophy Horn on the Manticore.
