Tips
  • Goodybags drop a lot of gold but can use Whack to instantly kill a character.
  • Quayhorse can use Midheal, and Wharfhorse can use Burning Breath (chance to inflict paralysis).
  • Mossferatu uses Kazing to revive allies, venomous breath, ice breath (hits in the 40s), and physical attacks (40s-50s).
  • Use Insulatle to reduce ice breath damage and Buff/Kabuff to reduce physical attack damage.
  • Counting Sheep (Shepherd class) can put Quayhorse and Mossferatu to sleep.
  • Attacks that hit all enemies or strong single-target attacks (with Oomph/Muster/Focus Strength) are effective against the seahorses.
  • You may already have Prism Dew from finishing past events in Grondal.
  • Glowmoss
  • Prism Dew (if obtained from Rainbow Cove)
  • Progression to the next part of the story.
