Tips
  • Monsters encountered include Thieving Scumbag, Harpy, Mandragora, Spirit Priest, Sydonaist Alpha, and Sydonaist Beta.
  • Defeating a Spirit Priest yields Weapon Data 136: Comet Hammer.
  • Mining Points can yield Coal (except on Xbox), Aluminum (a key ingredient for Edge's Venom Sword and Reimi's Composite Bow), Green Beryl, Seasonings, Light Gem, Shadestone, and Thunder Gem.
  • Gathering Points can yield Recipe Memo 09, Resurrection Elixir, and Fresh Sage.
  • When Myuria joins, consider buying her the Skill Manual "Demonology" from Rascal's Guild to increase the chance of receiving items from Demon family monsters.
  • Also teach Myuria the skills Chain Combos and Convert. Convert allows her to turn HP into MP.
  • Be mindful of Myuria's tendency to engage in close-range combat, which can put her at risk.
