Complete walkthrough for Tower of Fantasy's Ruin A-03, including detailed steps to find all chests on Easy, Normal, and Hard modes, and a strategy to defeat the Vulcan boss.
Walkthrough
- 1Upon entering Ruin A-03, you receive the Omnicannon relic (first time on easy mode). Normal mode proceeds directly to a jumping puzzle.
- 2After the initial puzzle, you'll reach a walkway with a chest on the right, leading to a room with Hyena enemies.
- 3Clear the enemies in the broken tile room with collapsed pillars and ghost mushrooms. Use the Omnicannon to create a jump spot to climb the wall.
- 4In the next area, defeat the enemies, then pull a lever to activate a moving platform.
- 5Aim your Omnicannon at the far wall between the platform and the edge to create a jumpable surface. Jump and dash forward onto the extended Omnicannon tube. If it hasn't extended, use the moving platform over the water, jumping over lasers.
Boss Fight: Vulcan
Vulcan is the boss of Ruin A-03. His attacks include an electrical AOE around his body, an electrical beam, a 360-degree spin, and a move where he flies over your position, leaving behind damaging electric fields.
- Vulcan's Attacks:
- Electrical AOE: Surrounds his body. Dodge the animation windup.
- Electrical Beam: A direct beam attack.
- 360 Spin: Spins rapidly.
- Flying Attack: Flies over the player, leaving electric fields. Dodge this move.
- Ground Electrocution: Flies up and throws an electrical staff, electrifying the entire floor. Stand on the platforms to avoid this, preferably near the end of the ruin for ranged attacks.
- Basic Attacks: Melee staff swing and shooting volt balls. These are less damaging and easier to dodge.
Tips for Vulcan Fight
- Use ranged weapons to attack Vulcan while he channels his floor-electrifying skill.
- Consider using a healing staff or consuming food to restore health if damaged.
- Dodge his AOE, beam, and flying attacks.
- Stand on platforms during his ground electrocution attack.
Ruin A-03 Chest Locations:
- First Chest (Easy/Normal): Located by the fence as you climb the first jumping puzzle, before entering the room with Hyena enemies.
- Second Chest (Normal): In the room after the first chest, drop down the left side to the floor below. It's beside a ruined pillar in a ditch, below the ramp.
- Third Chest (Normal): On a ledge on the opposite side of the room from the second chest. Use your Omnicannon to cross the chasm and climb up.
- Fourth Chest (Easy/Normal): Found near the laser platform with the lever. Behind the lever, there's a room with lasers blocking the door. Shoot your Omnicannon at the lasers to create a safe path into the room. This is the second chest on easy mode.
- First Hard Mode Chest: On a ledge in the first room. You can dash over from the first chest location or use the Omnium Hand Cannon to build a tower and climb.
- Second Hard Mode Chest: Located via the ramp leading into the water on the final laser puzzle platform.
