AntMag.NET

At this point it's better if some of your party members learn Take and Forage Skill Racial skills since they would be needed to gather some material that would be required to clear an event and request.

Remember, the difficulty can be changed anytime when you're in town.

Walkthrough

Head west to reach a door and open it, then examine the taking point in the center of the field. You can obtain either Brown Tuber, Lotus Fruit and/or Skunk Cabbage. Remember that only Brouni can gather the material with the help of Take skill. In the southwest you can find a crevice but it's impassable right now. Leave this area and then head north to find the remains of a campfire. Here you can make Grilled Fish from any Forest Fish that you've caught during your adventure. However, you should leave 1 Forest Fish to clear an event later.

Directly east of here another crevice on the wall can be found, and once again it's impassable from this side.

Now keep heading east until you meet a Celestrian Girl who stands beside a tree. She explains that the enemies here will be stronger than the ones in 1F, and then introduce herself as Lili, a Necromancer. She leaves after a few words, and you'll meet her again later in the near future.

Head south from here to find an examinable object, which is another type of gathering spots. To be able to obtain the material now you need a character who has learned Forage Skill. If you do, you can obtain a random amount of Forest Wheat.

Now continue east until you find another event in the dead end. A guard is seen doing something behind the bush, but you don't know what he's doing until you move closer. Select the first option Call out to him to find out that he manages to catch a big beast in a pitfall trap. However, the beast manages to leap out and retaliate by attacking your party. Defeat a Wounded Boar in the battle, and the guard will say thanks for your effort in bringing him down. With his ability he carves the meat and then gives some of them to you, Meat x5 as token of gratitude.

Head north until you meet another adventurer. If you have exchanged Guild Card, one of your friends may appear here, otherwise you'll meet an NPC guild under the name of Freeblade Guild. Their leader, Conrad, gives a tips about having a skilled gatherer, and then hands Forest Wheat x5 as well as his Guild Card before going deeper into the labyrinth. Later you'll meet your friend again throughout the game.

Skip the east path and keep heading north until you find another event in an open area. Here you'll find group of Forest Berries on the ground. Select the first option Pick berries to obtain Forest Berries x3 while also noticing some acorns nearby. Now you'll see that you can pick up several more fruits if necessary. If you pick the second option Leave, the event will end, but if you repick the Pick berries you'll concentrate on the fruits until you fail to notice the acorns that are actually monsters. Three Rabid Acorns will ambush your party as result. Defeat them and then the second wave will come with four Rabid Acorns this time. Once they are taken care of, you'll obtain another Forest Berries x3 as result. Now another decision will be given if you want to pick more berries. If you select the second option Leave, the event will end, but if you repick the Pick berries for the third time, you'll obtain Forest Berries x5 but now you are so exhausted that all party members' HP and TP will be decreased by 15 points. Moreover, a group of monsters will try to take advantage of this situation. Defeat three Wild Dogs to finally clear the event. They are weak to ice element, so defeat them using said element. By following this options you'll get the best possible result.
