Your friendly guide to conquering Dragon Quest VII's Poolside Cave. Learn how to find chests, bypass barriers, and progress through this tricky dungeon.
Alright, so you've landed in the Poolside Cave, part of the Roamers Scenario in Dragon Quest VII. Don't worry, it looks a bit confusing at first with all those dead ends, but we'll get through it together.
Walkthrough
- 1When you first enter, just keep moving north. You'll see a bunch of paths, but most of them lead nowhere for now. Stick to the main route until you reach the northern part of this first map.
- 2Once you're in the northern section, take the upper path. This will lead you to your first chest. Sadly, it's empty – a little Dragon Quest VII prank! Keep going west from here to find the exit to the next area.
- 3In the second area, you'll spot some chests off to the south. You can't get to them yet, so don't sweat it. Just keep heading west until you reach a fork in the path.
- 4The southern route here is blocked by a magical barrier, so your only choice is to take the northern path. You'll see stairs on your map; head for those.
- 5On the third floor, you'll have a few options right at the start. Your best bet is to head east through a covered hallway. This path leads to two chests. One holds a Mini Medal #17, and the other contains Poison. Grab them and then backtrack to find the exit to the next area.
Tips
- Don't waste time trying to reach chests you can't access yet; they'll be available later.
- Pay attention to your map to spot the stairs and avoid getting lost in the maze-like sections.
