Navigate Tower of Fantasy's Ruin B-01 with our comprehensive walkthrough. Discover all chest locations, boss fight strategies for Vulcan, and puzzle solutions.
Walkthrough
- 1Begin by descending the stairs and defeating the initial enemies.
- 2Proceed forward to find the first chest. Step on the plate to activate it, then flip the lever to exit.
- 3Cross the chasm by navigating the spinning pillars and jumping to the platform.
- 4Defeat the Ravager bandits (two melee, one ranged). Focus on the ranged enemy first to draw the melee ones closer.
- 5Ascend the stairs to a larger room. On Easy difficulty, go straight. On Normal and Hard, look left for a room containing a chest beside curved stone stairs.
- 6In the next room, solve the floor puzzle by matching the stone tablets to the pattern on the wall above the stairs.
- 7To find a chest in a locked room on the right: memorize the wall pattern, reset the floor buttons, and input the code. Reset the board again and input the first puzzle sequence to reopen the main progression door.
- 8Inside the main progression room, defeat the Watcher robots and the armored mech. Dodge the mech's heavy attacks and use its slowing zone.
- 9Proceed to the boss room to fight Vulcan.
Tips
- When fighting the Ravager bandits, targeting the ranged unit first will cause the melee units to advance, making them easier to manage with weapon skills.
- For the floor puzzle, remember to reset the buttons after solving the chest room puzzle to re-open the main progression door.
Vulcan Boss Tactics:
Vulcan is a floating fire mage. Prioritize using dodges to avoid key moves rather than for extra weapon damage.
- Charged Staff Swing: Dodge as the boss pulls its staff back.
- Ground Blast: Vulcan dashes and charges fiery magic, unleashing it on the ground in a large radius. Double-dodge away from the boss.
- Fly By: Vulcan flies across the battlefield multiple times. Dodge to avoid collision damage.
- Fireballs: Vulcan shoots two fireballs. Have two dashes available to dodge each one.
- Impale Staff: Vulcan twirls, plants its staff, and emits damaging fire waves. Move far away from the staff and use free-aim weapons (e.g., EM Stars, Nightgale’s Feather, Icewind Arrow) to deal damage from a distance.
