Dragon Quest VI Border Checkpoint walkthrough: cross poisonous land, find new enemies in the Underkeep cave, and save your game with an itinerant priest.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    From the Border Checkpoint, walk east, staying on the north side of the water.
  2. 2
    Head south, following the eastern mountain range.
  3. 3
    Enter the building and rest in the bed to the right of the path.
  4. 4
    An itinerant priest (an NPC (non-player character — anyone the game controls, not you) who can save your game) is waiting on the other side of the gate.
  5. 5
    Leave the checkpoint and proceed east towards a poisonous patch of land.
  6. 6
    Cross this poisonous land; it will not do too much damage.
  7. 7
    Continue east to a small bridge.
  8. 8
    Beyond the bridge, on the next island, you will find a Cave containing new enemies, which is your destination.
  9. 9
    Once you have entered the Underkeep, you can use the Evac spell to exit, and the location will be added to your Zoom list (a fast travel mechanic).
Tips
  • The enemies encountered after the poisonous land will be tougher, similar to those found in Moonmirror Tower.
  • The Cave on the next island contains new enemies and is your destination.
  • Using Evac after entering the Underkeep allows for quick travel back to the location later.
