Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Floor 1: Follow the cavern clockwise. Find a Hi-Potion in the bottom-left and a Phoenix Down in the top-left. Stairs down are in the top-right.
  2. 2
    Basement Level 1: At the first path split, go down for 500 pg. At the second split, go up to find a blue locked chest (unopenable for now). At the third split, go left to find another split; open the chest for a Remedy, or go down to an isolated part of Basement Level 2 for a Mage Shell. Continue down from the third split to find stairs to Basement Level 2.

    Basement Level 2 and 3: In the main segment of Basement Level 2, find chests with Echo Herbs (bottom-left), Ether (top-left), Teleport Stone (top-right), and 1000 pg (center). Stairs to Basement Level 3 are near the center. Follow the cavern clockwise.
  4. 4
    Basement Level 3: Proceed forward to find the Adventurer and an orange exclamation mark. Prepare for a boss battle.

Boss: Dragon

Stats / Weaknesses:

  • Level: 17
  • HP: 7500
  • Weak to: Water, Dragon

Strategy:

  • Maintain high defense. Return to Yulyana's for better gear if needed. Rest at the bedroom to recover HP and MP.
  • The dragon uses Mow Down, which hits the whole party. Group-cast Cure to maintain health.
  • Use Default to minimize damage. Attack when the dragon has negative BP from attacking twice, but prioritize healing if necessary.
  • If the dragon is not Brave, cast Cure or Protect to bolster defenses.
  • Be aware of the dragon's Brave attacks, which can include Mow Down followed by Bully, potentially KO'ing a party member. Use Phoenix Down and Hi-Potion to revive fallen allies, ideally when they have negative BP.
  • As the dragon takes damage, it will Brave more frequently. Ensure your characters can withstand sustained attacks.
  • If you have a Black Mage, Blizzard can deal significant damage.
  • After defeating the dragon, use a Teleport Stone to return to Sage Yulyana.
  • The next day, you will receive the fixed Vestal Garb.
  • You can now perform the rite of awakening.
