Final Fantasy IV
WALKTHROUGH
An FMV shows Cecil departing for Mysidia as Rosa looks on worried about him.
============================================================================= Robbing of Mysidia Party:
N/A Party's level: N/A Items: None Key Items: Ring Monsters: None =============================================================================
The infamous air fleet of Baron is on their way back to Baron after taking Crystal of Mysidia. As the
fleet heads back Cecil thinks about his actions against the innocent people of Mysidia. He takes the lives of innocent
people so that the King of Baron can have the Crystal, but for what purpose? Before the Elder of Mysidia gives the Crystal
to Cecil, Cecil's men had killed innocent lives to get his demand. His men also share Cecil's regret, but Cecil knows
that the King took Cecil in when he was a young orphan and he cannot disobey the King's orders.
Suddenly the fleet is attacked by a horde of monsters that appear out of nowhere. Cecil easily dismantles
the monsters and his crew suffered only minor injuries. Why are so many monsters appearing now these days? Where did they
come from? After the battles with the monsters the fleet heads back to Baron. Here he hands the King the Crystal, Baigan
talks to the King Cecil questions the King's orders. The King is furious and relieves Cecil as commander of the Red
Wings, Kain overhears and tries to defend Cecil, but he too is asked to go with Cecil. Before he leaves Cecil and Kain
is given a ring to deliver to the Village of Mist. Once you leave the King's throne Kain thinks that after Cecil completes
this mission the King will restore Cecil as Commander of the Red Wings again, but for now Kain tells Cecil to get some rest
for tommorow.
============================================================================= The Night Before The
Journey Party: Cecil, Kain Party's level: 10 Items: Potion, 300 Gil Key Items: None Monsters: None =============================================================================
After the scenario you can talk to Kain if you want. You'll know why Cecil has decided to wield the
Dark Sword, because the King of Baron had asked him to do so. Now head down into the next room, on the right side of the screen
is a door with a switch that will open a room with three treasure chest, one is 300 Gil, another one is a Potion, and the
other is a TENT. Now head to the left side, after that just head towards the stairs, in this room you'll see Rosa who
comes and tries to talk to Cecil, Cecil is somewhat disturbed by the recent event and Rosa wishes to see Cecil later. For
now just continue on. Once your outside head for the tower on the left side above you, but before you can reach the
tower Cid, the Chief Engineer of Baron sees you and wishes to talk to you.
Here you'll get a brief history about Cid. He builds airships for Baron but he doesn't like them to
be used as weapons, he then leaves as his daughter might worry about him. Also you can choose to explore the rest of the
Castle if you want but you won't get very far due to the fact that the guards around the Castle of Baron will not let
you through unless they have the King's orders. Once you reach the tower a maid will be standing in front of your room
to tell you that your sheets were made. When your in your room just go up to the bed and the room will darken and Cecil
will take a rest. During the middle of the night Rosa will come to Cecil.
She seems questioned about Cecil's recent behavior. Cecil tells Rosa that he feels alot of guilt about
stealing from innocent people. Rosa is shocked to hear this and Cecil vows that he will never again do indecent acts among innocent
people even if ordered the the King of Baron himself. Now Cecil will tell Rosa to take a rest. Until the next morning the
two head off into the unknown land. For years Cecil and Kain have relied on the transportation of the Red Wings, but
now they must set foot into the unknown. Here before Cecil and Kain leaves you'll see a prologue about the things to come,
Why has the King been behaving so differently? Why are there so many monsters appearing lately? You don't have the answers
right now and you'll have to find them yourself.
============================================================================= Town Of Baron Party:
Cecil, Kain Party's level: 10 Items: N/A Key Items: None Monsters: None =============================================================================
Once your outside to the sides of the Castle of Baron is the Twon of Baron. Inside hear there really
isn't much to do except talk to the people and gather information if you want, but right now its not neccessary. The door on
the left side of town is locked also the doors leading to the Weapons and Armors shops are locked. You can't unlock them
now, but what you can do is go buy some items for your long journey ahead. What I would recommend is buying two Tents
and buying three Potions. You really don't need to buy exactly what I say because the battles ahead really aren't that
hard, and if you want to stock up on more items you can fight battles outside.
The battles outside really won't give you much expierience points but they can give you some good amounts
of gold. Also there is a training room in this town, if this is your first time playing an RPG I suggest you get to know
the basics first like I said before, so that it can help you advance further into the game without much hassle. Also notice
one of the students telling you that Lightning damage is weak towards water opponents. Once your done head north pass
the bridges until you see a cave.
============================================================================= Cave of Mist Party:
Cecil, Kain Party's level: 10 Items: Potion, Eyedrops, Tent, Potion Key Items: None Monsters: Mist D., Imp, Evil
Shell, Pike =============================================================================
You'll notice that when you check your status that both Cecil and Kain are at level 10. Kain has to
gain nearly double the expierience points to gain a level than Cecil has to, but for some reasons I'm not sure. You can
gain levels by fighting monsters inside the Cave of Mist if you want, and if you do stay near the entrance and once
your outside use a TENT to heal your wounds. If your too weak to fight anymore battles hold the L & R buttons down
at the same time during battle to escape from battle. Once you have reached the entrance of the cave you can save the game
if you want. You don't have to really since the battles inside are pretty easy.
When your all set to go enter the cave and take the right side to find a ladder. In this cave you will
also notice a fog or mist of some sort surrounding the cave that's gives the cave a white transparent look. Be sure to collect
the treasure chests in here as there are two POTIONS and Eyedrops. Occasionally when you advance deeper into the cave of
Mist you Cecil and Kain will hear a voice telling them to go back. Don't worry about it, just keep advancing through
until your near the exit. Once you've reached near the exit the mysterious voice that is talking gives you a second warning
to leave, don't bother to listen just keep advancing. Once you've reached the exit the mysterious voice will ask you
one more time if you want to leave, if you choose "No" you will not be able to advance but if you choose "Yes" you will
initiate a fight with the Summoned Monster. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: Mist D. HP: 465 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This
boss fight shouldn't be too hard but I'm here to help incase your stuck! First off just continue to attack the mist having
Cecil pound the Mist D. with his regular attacks and having Kain Jump the Dragon. Continue to attack the Dragon until
it starts forming into a Mist or when the message box on the top of the battle screen tells you to stop. If you attack
the Mist Dragon while it's in Mist form it will counter attack with COLDMIST which is double the damage of its normal
attack and it hits both Cecil and Kain. For now when the Mist Dragon is in Mist form just wait until the message box gives
you the signal or when the Mist starts to form back into a Dragon. When your HP falls below 60 use your Potions you
found earlier to heal the wounded party member and continue to attack. Repeat this process until you have defeated the Mist
Dragon. By now Cecil should have easily gained a level and don't be surprised if Kain doesn't.
Once your done head out of the Cave of Mist and you can choose to save the game before entering the
town of Mist. Before you enter the Town of Mist make sure you deequip Kain. After you have saved the game enter the Town
of Mist.
============================================================================= Town Of Mist Party:
Cecil, Kain Party's level: 11 Items: Potion, None Key Items: None Monsters: None =============================================================================
When you reach inside the BombRing that the King told you to deliver suddenly pops out to reveal fire
monsters that sets the town of Mist on fire. Cecil and Kain are shocked to see that the King of Baron would do this.
The little girl that is above Cecil and Kain is crying over the death of her mother. Here Kain tells Cecil that killing
the Summoned Monster also kills the Summoner. Kain saids that both he and Cecil should be rid of the little girl and
Cecil is dumbfounded to hear what Kain has to say. Cecil vows that he will not hurt innocent lives and Kain realizes what
Cecil is trying to do and says that whatever Cecil wishes to do Kain will always be at his side. The little girl over
hears the conversation between Cecil and Kain and hates them for what they have done. Cecil and Kain tries to rescue the
girl out of the town before she is taken along with the town. The girl refuses and Cecil and Kain have no choice but to
take the little girl out of the town by force.
Here the girl initiates the battle, but there is little that Cecil and Kain can do as the girl summons
a Titan that rips the ground apart sending Kain into the underground and most of town with it as well. Afterwards Cecil
finds the little girl unconsious and he decides to help her to a near by town to help heal her wounds. Also you'll notice
that the mountains are caved in blocking your way back to Baron.
============================================================================= Town Of Kaipo Party:
Cecil Party's level: 11 Items: None Key Items: None Monsters: General, Soldier =============================================================================
After the scenario head towards the town of Kaipo which is found on the south side of an oasis in the
middle of the desert. Once inside Cecil helps the little girl by sending her to an inn. The innkeeper realizes that the girl
is hurt and does not wish to charge Cecil any money. As the little girl wakes up Cecil tries to talk to her but to no avail.
Then the two take a rest, during the middle of the night soldiers from Baron ask that Cecil give the little girl to
the King of Baron. Cecil refuses to give the girl to the soldiers and he decides to defend the girl. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: General/Soldier HP: 27(Soldiers) 221(General) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well
this battle shouldn't be too hard, I'm not even sure if I'm suppose to use the word hard at all! You can choose to take
down the Officer if you want, but mainly focus your attention on the Soldiers. If you take out the Soldiers first that
means the Officer will just retreat. However if you do manage to take down the Officer along with the Soldiers you will
recieve a significant amount of expierience points.
After the battle, the little girl will realize that you were trying to protect her. Cecil can't ask
for her forgiveness, but the least he can do is try to protect her. She tells Cecil her name which is Rydia. She's at level
1 with very little HP and MP. At first she doesn't know any WHITE or BLACK magic but later after gaining a level or two
she will learn some basic BLACK and WHITE magic.
Afterwards heads towards the northeast side of the town of Kaipo and in the room you'll find Rosa, who
is serverely sick and can barely speak. She has an extremely high fever and the only thing that can cure her condition
is the Sandruby located in the cave of the Antlion. For now head outside and look for a weapons shop. By a Bow for Rydia
amd about 25 Iron Arrows. In the armor shop you do not need to buy anything because Rydia is equipped with all the armor
the store has to offer, but if you want buy the extra CAP HELMET for now. When your done leave the town and head northeast
towards a cave. Now is the ideal time to save your game.
============================================================================= Water Cavern-South/Water
Cavern-North Party: Cecil, Rydia Party's level: 11 Items: Potion, MaidKiss, Tent, Ironring, Bomb, Potion, Ether1,
Icerod, 580 Gil, Bomb, Potion, HrGlass1, Dark(sword), Ether1, Notus Key Items:
None Monsters: CaveToad, Waterbug, EvilShell, Pike, Zombie, Mad Toad, WaterHag,
Tiny Mage =============================================================================
Once you have reached inside go up and take both treasures in the treasure chest which is a MaidKiss
and Potion. Now head to the left side and you'll see an old man near the end of a bridge, first take the treasure chest
below you which is a TENT and talk to the old man. He will tell you that a Bard has tricked his daughter into running
away with him at Damcyan, coincidentally where Cecil and Rydia is headed to find the Sandruby to heal Rosa's high fever.
Afterwards Tellah the Sage will join your party and he will need the help of the Black Sword to defeat the monster that
dwells in the waterfalls.
Surprisingly Tellah's stats are higher than Cecil's. Tellah's knowledge of both BLACK AND WHITE magic
should help back up Rydia as she is just learning her magic potiential. However this is just the icing on the cake because Tellah
has lost most of his knowledge of the stronger spells. Also Tellah's MPs are pretty high as of now, but even if you gain
him levels his MP will not rise also he is at level 20 with about 340 HP, but he cannot attack very well with weapons.
Here continue on but don't forget the treasure chest to the right, you'll need to enter the waters to
retrieve the treasure chest. Inside the treasure chest is an Ironring. Equip it on Tellah and also the Cap you bought earlier at
Kaipo. Now continue on back and make your way to the next room. In this next room head up and you'll have to walk in the
water again and then make your way to the left side and pick up yet another Potion. Now continue along down and take
the next ladder, to the left of this room is an ETHER1. Afterwards just make your way to the room to the left side. Here
in this room, luckily Tellah already has a TENT, so you won't need to worry about using one of your own. Here you will
see Rydia sleeping and Cecil and Tellah have a quiet conversation.
Tellah notes that he sees alot of potiential in Rydia and he will also give you a brief rundown about
why his daughter Anna has run away. Anna is his only child and she ran away with the Bard because Tellah would not agree
to his daughter Anna's marriage. After the little scenario you will be given the chance to save, your wounds are fully
healed and your magic points are completely restored. Now would probably be a good time to save. When you head out of
this save room continue on and don't forget to take a look inside the treasure chest to the right to pick up an Icerod.
Afterwards make your way through to the middle of the room and enter through. In this next room there
really isn't much here except for a POTION, also you will see some regions of the room that are oddly shaded with a black
color. Go through that region and go towards the right, on the right side is a Leather Helmet, its hidden at the right
side of the room. Here in this room you'll see the vast region below you, don't worry you can't fall off because it
would be stupid if you could anyways. To the left are two ETHER1's and to the right at the bottom is a yet again, another
CURE1 POTION, also pickup the DARKNESS sword for Cecil. When you reach outside, save your game and continue on.
============================================================================= Waterfall Party: Cecil,
Rydia, Tellah Party's level: 10 Items: Hades(Helmet), Hades(gloves), Hades(armor), Hermes Key Items: None Monsters:
Octomamm, Mad Toad, Cave Toad, Tiny Mage, Water Bug, Pike, WaterHag,
Zombie =============================================================================
Once you enter this cave just keep going right, there is only two treasure chest in this room one is
an Ether1 and the other one is another Hades equipment for Cecil. Equip the new piece of armor and continue on. Also in this
room are only two treasure chests. Both of them contain Hades equipment for Cecil, equip those on and head towards the
middle of the waterfall to engage in a battle that was foretold by Tellah the Sage. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: OCTOMAMM HP: 2350 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Although
there are eight parts to OCTOMAMM he is still only going to be one target. At first OCTOMAMM can attack rather fast, but
as you start to attack he will begin to slow down. Here have Rydia attack with her CHOCO summon or you can lose LIT1,
but Rydia learns LIT1 at level 5 so incase your levels with Rydia are not up there yet, then just stick with the CHOCO
summon, which will do more damage than her LIT1 attack, and have Tellah attack with LIT1. Cecil's attacks should do
quite a bit of damage against OCTOMAMM, probably about 130 HP of damage with each hit. As you continue to attack you will notice
that each leg of OCTOMAMM dies, so I think that every 150 HP you lose OCTOMAMM, an arm dies off, except for his last leg
which is about 350 HP. This boss fight shouldn't be too hard and when you hear Tellah saying that you have slowed down
the monster your about near victory.
NOTE: If your attacks were strong enough earlier, one hit can kill Octomamm
even if it has three legs left, and if Tellah is not alive during the battle, no text message
will appear.
After the boss fight head through the waterfall and onto your next destination, the Castle of Damcyan.
Also its not a bad idea to save here after your battle with OCTOMAMM, but don't bother using a TENT.
============================================================================= Damcyan Castle Party:
Cecil, Rydia, Tellah Party's level: 15 Items: Tent Key Items: None Monsters: Bard =============================================================================
Before you reach the Castle of Damcyan the Red Wings come out of nowhere and bombard the castle reducing
it to a pile of rubble. Here just enter the castle. Midway through you will see a room full of treasure chest, all of them
are already opened except one on the top of the room, open that treasure chest to obtain a TENT and continue on towards
the center of the castle of Damcyan. Upon entering the castle you will see the remains of the once beautiful castle
of Damcyan and also the downed guards. Once you have reached the center of the castle you will see Tellah's only daughter
Anna lying on the floor almost dying.
Tellah becomes enraged as he attacks the "Spoony Bard." You can't control this battle and everything
the Bard is trying to say Tellah ignores, when Anna speaks Tellah comes to his senses and stops his attack against the
Bard. Here Anna explains what had happened, it appears that when Edward and Anna was about to leave they were attacked
by the Red Wings of Baron, also they had taken the Crystal of Fire. Anna explains that Edward is the prince of Damcyan
and he was disguised as a Bard so that he can go to Kaipo and find Anna. Anna saved Edward's life by shielding him from
the arrows that were brought upon by the Red Wings fleet.
Afterwards Anna dies and Tellah is once again enraged, he wishes to take vengence upon the one called
Golbez, who led the Red Wings' attack against Damcyan. Cecil says he can't go alone but Tellah is too fustrated and angry to
listen and he goes off on his own. As Anna dies, Edward lets out his tears of emotion...yet he is not the only one who
has lost a loved one. Edward does not care and he wishes to stay with Anna, Cecil comes over and literally knocks some
sense into him. He tells Edward that Anna would not like it if he was just to stay here and Cecil desprately needs Edward's
help. Edward wonders how he can help and Cecil tells him that he needs to find the Sandruby to cure Rosa's fever.
Edward tells him that he has a Hovercraft and with it you can reach the cave of the Antlion. Before
the party leaves out of the castle, Edward comes and says the final goodbye before leaving to help his new friends. Once
your outside you can get off your Hovercraft by pressing the A button and re- entering the castle, if you have bothered
to talk to the guards you'll notice that one of them said that a recovery pot is above, the guard that told you that
was in the same room you got the tent. Once you've reached inside the middle of the caslte you'll notice that all the down
guards are gone, the pot on the left will completely heal your party members and also reverse any negative status effects,
also you don't have to talk to the two mages that are around the pot since they won't give you any info that you already
don't know. The pot to the left will completely restore your loss MP. Once your done head out to your Hovercraft.
============================================================================= Antlion Cave Party:
Cecil, Edward, Rydia Party's level: 15 Items: Potion, Silk Web, Potion, Soft, Tent, Potion, Notus, Lamia(harp),
HrGlass1, Silk Web, 210 Gil, 190 Gil, 250 Gil. Life, Ether1, Exit NOTE: If you are
playing the SNES version, the Exit item is replaced
with a Tent. Key Items: Sandruby Monsters: Basilisk, Imp, Imp Cap., Turtle, Weeper, Sand Worm =============================================================================
From Damcyan go northeast through the shallow rocks and you should find another part of the continent.
When you reach this place you will see Mt. Hobs, when you enter Mt. Hobs a thick block of Ice blocks the way, for now there
is nothing you can do here. Now head down into the cave below. You should save it right now because the enemies inside
are pretty strong.
Inside here there are several treasure chests. To the left side of the cave is a Potion and 190 Gil,
to the right of the cave is 210 Gil and Potion. Towards the bottom left of the cave is a Tent and a Potion yet again. After
you have collected the six treasure chests head down to the bottom right. In this next room you will find a your first
Life Potion of the game in the treasure chest below, the door next to it contains Edward's strongest harp, the Lamia Harp.
The treasure chest above the door contains a Notus. Go into the door and when your in the next room go into the door and
you will see a save point and also three treasure chests, collect the Life Potion, Ether1, and the Tent/Exit from the
three treasure chests and save and heal your wounds if any. Now continue back to the room before and head to the left side to
pick up 250 Gil and head towards the center of the room and into the Antlion's nest.
The Sandruby is just ahead, but as Edward tries to grab the Sandruby, the Antlion attacks it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: ANTLION HP: 1100 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This
boss fight is fairly easy, but a few mistakes can cost you. Here the Antlion attacks are nothing to worry about because
they only do 1 HP of damage, but watch for the COUNTER attack. There isn't much you can do about this because each time
you attack him with a Physical attack he will counter. Each one of those counter hits are about 21 HP of damage which can
be very serious towards Rydia and Edward because Edward starts out at level 5 with 60 HP and three shots can easily
swoon him. But Cecil's attacks are too strong to pass up so just have Cecil constantly attack the ANTLION, have Rydia use her
CHOCO summon and Edward be the healer and part time attacker. Once your HP starts to drop below 40, you should consider
using Potions to help keep your HPs up. After a while you should be rid of the ANTLION and obtain the SANDRUBY.
Afterwards Edward will question why the ANTLION has attacked him. Cecil reveals that there are too many
monsters appearing these days and the ANTLION must defend itself. Afterwards you should head out of the cave and back
to the desert town Kaipo. With your newly aquired Hovercraft you can reach the desert town of Kaipo rather easily by going
all the way to the west side and you will see shallow rocks that the Hovercraft can travel by.
============================================================================= Return To Kaipo Party:
Cecil, Rydia, Edward Party's level: 17 Items: None Key Items: None Monsters: Waterhag =============================================================================
Here return to the house you saw Rosa in earlier. When you enter here talk to Rosa and your item box
will appear, hit the "A" button over the SANDRUBY to use the SANDRUBY over Rosa. Here she will awaken and she will tell
you about Golbez controlling all of the nation of Baron. She also tells you about the Crystal of Air and Crystal of
Earth. The Crystal of Fire is already in the hands of Golbez, and Rosa wishes to join Cecil, but Cecil refuses. Rosa followed
Cecil because she heard that Cecil was swallowed by the earthquake in the Village of Mist.
Also she points out that the Crystal of Air is towards Fabul, but right now they need to get over Mt.Hobs
which is covered by a thick block of Ice, she asked Rydia to cast fire but Rydia hesitates and saids she can not cast fire. Afterwards
Edward realizes that Rosa wants to be with Cecil and he convinces Cecil to bring her along. Here Cecil tells Rosa to get
a good night's sleep before they go. Here in the middle of the night Edward goes out and plays a tune in memory
of Anna. During the middle of his play he is attacked by a WaterHag. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: WATERHAG HP: 60 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here
Edward must fight this battle alone, Anna will help guide Edward towards victory as Edward should be able to easily conquer
this battle. Just have Edward constantly attack and the WATERHAG should be gone.
Afterwards Anna tells Edward that she must leave, but Edward doesn't want to be alone, but she tells
him to give the love he gave to Anna to all his people. Here Anna leaves and Edward questions himself as what he is suppose to
do. Before you leave make sure you stock up on a good amount of Arrows for Rosa and Rydia(if you have bought Bow and Arrows
for Rydia earlier), Rosa starts off at level 10 with 150 HP, but her defense is still weak so keep her in the backrow.
Now head back to Mt.Hobs via the Hovercraft, which is northeast of the Antlion's nest.
============================================================================= Mt. Hobs Party:
Cecil, Rosa, Edward, Rydia Party's level: 18 Items: Potion, Tent, Soft, 960 Gil, Holy(arrows)
NOTE: The SNES version only reveals 350 Gil, not 960 Key Items: None Monsters: Gargoyle, Skeleton, Red Bone, Spirit,
Mom Bomb, Cocatris, Grey Bomb, Bomb =============================================================================
Here there is the thick block of Ice that I told you about earlier. Rosa asks Rydia to cast Fire but
she can't. Rydia will not cast fire because she is afraid of fire because it burned her home down, but Rosa tells Rydia
that she believes in her and she is the only one who can melt the Ice blocking the entrance of Mt.Hobs. She persuades
Rydia to use fire because she tells her that if they don't get through many more people will be in danger, here Rydia sums
up all her inner strength and casts fire, the Ice block of Mt. Hobs melts and Rydia has now learned FIRE1.
Afterwards the party thanks Rydia. For now continue on towards the mountain. When you first see a door,
take the door and you will be on the side of a mountain with a save point and four treasure chests, they contain a TENT, POTION,
Soft, and 350/960 Gil. Save your game and heal your wounds if any and continue on back to the right side of the mountain.
Also take a chance to look down at the valley below, despite it being 16-bits it looks quite breathtaking doesn't it?
Now head to the Summit and you will see a Karate Master being attacked by a group of IMP CAPTAINs, Yang easily dismantles
them, but the MOMBOMB comes after him, the party realizes that it will be a difficult battle alone and they decide to help. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: MOMBOMB HP: 11000(total) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now
this is what I'm talking about! 5 against 1! Despite your overpowering numbers this is still going to be a very difficult
fight. Have Rydia use her CHOCB summon, have Cecil attack normally, have Rosa use her AIM command, have Yang attack
not Kick, and have Edward be your part time Attacker and Healer. After you do about 1500 HP of damage the MOMBOMB will
change form, just continue to attack and if your party's HP drops below 75, then keep them up there. The MOMBOMB will
give you a warning when its about to explode, that is the sign to heal yourself if your HP is below 75. When it does Explode
the party suffers extensive damage about 50-60 HP of damage to every character, quickly heal your party because your
party's HP(besides Cecil) is still pretty low. Now it turns itself into 3 BOMBs and 3 GREYBOMBs. That's 6 targets for
you to attack now, each one of the targets only have about 50-100 HP and this time have Yang use his KICK command to attack
all the BOMBs at once and continue your usual attack pattern.
Afterwards Yang thanks the party for helping him out in battle and they tell Yang that the Crystal of
Air is in danger and they must protect it before it gets into the hands of Golbez. Here they give each other a briefing
on their backgrounds and why they are willing to help Yang. It appears that Yang is the only survivor of his forces and
the people at Fabul are still in training. After the little scenario go towards the east side of the mountain and continue
on. Once you have reached outside keep going east and past the mountains to find the Castle of Fabul. Here save and use
a TENT just in front of the Castle before entering the castle.
============================================================================= Castle Of Fabul Party:
Cecil, Rosa, Edward, Rydia, Yang Party's level: 10-20 Items: Hermes, Silk Web, Demon(shield), Ether1, Bomb, Notus, Potion,
ThorRage, Bacchus, Tent, Death(sword) Key Items: None Monsters: Captain, Fighter, Imp Cap., Weeper, WaterHag, Gargoyle,
Dragoon =============================================================================
Here once you get inside keep going and you will see a Weapons/Armor shop to the right and the INN is
on the left side. Go buy Yang an extra claw of your choice, buy Cecil all the available Demon armor, helmet, and gloves.
Sell any Shadow and Hades equipment you may have and continue on towards the center of the castle. Here you will approach
the King of Fabul. Yang informs him about Golbez's forces and they must set up a defense immediately.
The King of Fabul has trouble trusting in Cecil because he is the Dark Knight of Baron, but Yang persuades
the King that Cecil and his friends came to his aid when he was attacked. Here Prince Edward tells the King that he is
glad to see him again but he tells the King what he had lost and the King is sorry for his misunderstanding. Here the
King will ask you if you want to help defend the castle. If you choose "no" then you will be given time before the battle,
if you choose "yes" the battle will begin.
Here you will only be a party of three, so Cecil, Yang, and Edward is the castle's main defence(that's
how they spell it in the game) and Rosa and Rydia will be the healers of the wounded people of Fabul. Here the three take stand
at the entrance of Fabul as they prepare for battle. Also make sure you can keep your HP during the middle of the battle
because the battles keep going on and you will not be given time in between to heal yourself or your party members.
Here after first battle defeat the FIGHTERS and ignore the General. After this first battle the RED WINGS of Baron attack
the castle and the party does not have any defense against the airships so they must retreat back into the castle(lousy
cheaters!).
From here on out, you will fight a long series of battles without time to heal in between, so be prepared
and keep your HP up. As you defeat them, the party tries to pull back Edward slips and falls as the soldiers of Baron come in.
Afterwards the party makes their last retreat back to the Crystal Room. Here Kain comes in and Cecil is shocked to see
Kain alive. Here Kain wants to fight Cecil and Cecil has no choice. Here you shouldn't bother trying to fight Kain because
he keeps using that JUMP attack and it will knock you out in a few blows. Here afterwards Kain will try to put Cecil out
of his misery and Rosa comes in and tries to stop Kain, but Kain is somehwat startled and then Golbez finally meets
the party.
Here Golbez knocks out both Edward and Yang, and commands Kain to take the Crystal of Air which Kain
happily confirms. Here Golbez realizes that Rosa is important to Cecil and he kidnappes her and Kain tells Cecil he had
a narrow escape. Afterwards Rydia is helpless against Kain and she performs the CURE magic towards the party and they
are revived out of their wounds. Here Yang will help Cecil this time, but Cecil's spirit has taken a hard punch.
Before you head out, search around the castle(like the switch on the right side of the throne room)
and inside pots to pick up various items. Just take your time to explore the castle and go to the inn when you are ready.
As the party enters the INN they need to find a way to take the Crystal of Air back, but they need an
Airship. Here the party finds out that Baron's main force is the RED WINGs, the sea is relatively weak. Yang asks about
Kain and Cecil replies that he used to be his best friend, but now he is under the control of Golbez. Here Yang tells
Cecil that the King will ahppily offer his ship to the party. In the morning the King of Fabul offers the Death sword left
by the Dark Knight years ago, but it cannot stop True Evil. The ship the party asked for is to the east of Fabul. So exit
the castle and outside you will find the ship that leads to Baron. Inside beofre Yang leaves, his wife says goodbye.
Here the ship departs for Baron and during the middle of the voyage Yang asks what Cecil will do when
he reaches Baron, he decides that they must find the Chief Engineer of Baron, who is Cid. Before the party can reach Baron the
mythical sea God Leviathan stops the party. Here the waves come crashing on the party and Rydia is thrown out of the boat,
Yang then goes after her to help save her, but both of them cannot save themselves. Here the ship gets sucked into the
Whirlpool created by the Leviathan as the entire party is separated. Afterwards you will find Cecil alone on the beach,
he wonders where the rest of his party is but to no avail.
============================================================================= Mysidia Party:
Cecil Party's level: 22 Items: None Key Items: None Monsters: None =============================================================================
When you reach ashore, to the right is Mysidia. Here ignore the people because they will turn you into
a Pig or Toad to avenge the death of their friends. Just in case you did not listen to me talk to the person who casted the
spell on you again and you will be changed back into your normal form. Now head towards the center of the town and talk
to the Elder of Mysidia. Here the Elder sees that Cecil has gotten a taste of his own medecin, but he also tells Cecil
that he cannot depend on the Sword of Darkness if he wishes to achieve his goal. He tells him to go to Mt.Ordeals, but
warns Cecil that many have gone to Mt.Ordeals to become a Paladin but none have come back yet.
Before Cecil leaves the Elder of Mysidia tells him that he will need two Wizards. Here Porom comes in
but Palom is nowhere to be found, then Palom pops out of thin air and appears. here you already meet the giant ego of Palom
and the politeness of Porom. After the scenario go to the Weapons shop and buy Porom about 60 Holy arrows and buy Palom
a FlameRod. Also buy Palom and Porom every Gaea equipment you can buy and head out. When your out here head towards
the east, its a long walk to Mt. Ordeals so make sure you have enough healing supplies as well. Also Porom the White Wizard
starts out at level 10 with 110 HP while Palom starts at level 10 with 100 HP, so you might want to consider some level
gaining before you head on. |
Mt. Ordeals Party: Cecil, Palom, Porom Party's level: 12-25 Items: Potion, Potion, Ether1, Ether1 Key Items:
None Monsters: Soul, Revenant, Ghoul, Skeleton, Red Bone, Milon, Milon Z., Dark
Knight =============================================================================
Here you will see fire blocking the way of the entrance of Mt. Ordeals. Afterwards Porom and Palom will knock out
the fire, but a scenario comes. At this exact time at another destination Golbez summons Milon, the fiend of Earth to
stop Cecil. Here Kain wishes that he were to stop Cecil, but Golbez refuses and asks him to watch over Rosa. After the
scenario continue on but don't for get to pick up two Potions. Also monsters here are in the undead category, so make
sure you have plenty of Holy Arrows and have plenty of MP to use FIRE magic. In the 3rd station you will once again meet
up Tellah. Here he explains why he came to Mt. Ordeals.
He wishes to learn METEO so that he can avenge his daughter, the twins realize who he is, he is the Sage Mysidia has
been raving about. Here Cecil tells him that he came to Mt. Ordeals to become a Paladin. Afterwards Tellah joins your
party. Now continue on and in the next area be sure to pick up an ETHER1 and another ETHER1. Continue onto the Summit and
you will a save point. Save your game and heal your wounds. When you continue on the twins will hear something, but
Palom says its not him, when you encounter the bridge you will face off against Milon, the Fiend of Earth. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: MILON and FOUR REVENANTS HP: 3500(MILON) 200(REVENANT) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This
fight will drain you down quite a bit. Here have Palom use his FIRE2 spell against everybody and have Tellah use his FIRE1
spell as well. Always have Cecil attack Milon. Use Porom as your healer. Also keep your HP up above 50 for the twins,
above 100 for both Cecil and Tellah because MILON can and will use his LIT1 spell serveral times in a row, this is enough
to weaken your party. Afterwards you should be rid of Milon. NOTE: PALOM MUST BE AT LEVEL 14 TO LEARN FIRE2. There really
isn't much you can do about Milon's Lit1 attack since he counters with it practically everytime he is attacked with
it anyways.
For now do not continue to go forward, but yet go back to the save point and save your game. Also don't forget to
heal your wounds. Here switch the rows of your party members, putting Cecil in the back and Palom, Porom, and Tellah in
the front. Now continue onto the bridge, but just as you try to reach the end of the mountain MILON once again attacks
you. This time he back attacks you but luckily you switched rows, but for some odd reason you did not listen to me you
can switch rows during the middle of your battle by hitting the direction pad left on your command box.
NOTE: Switching rows is not neccessary, but you will be back attacked soon and your
weaker party members will get swooned in one blow most likely. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: MILON Z. HP: 3523 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- If
you have Fire2, use it. It does anywhere from 400-700 HP of damage to Milon, have Porom and Tellah be the healers and have
Cecil attack as normal. If you put Cecil in the back row, he'll virtually be unstoppable provided you have all your
Demon equipment equipped since every hit Milon does against Cecil in the back row will result in 1 HP of damage. It's a
long way to defeat Milon, but this is the option you might want to consider since I think this is the easier way.
Don't bother healing yourself after this next battle because after this next event your party will be fully helaed.
After the battle Cecil will see a reflection of himself in the mirror. The mysterious voice talks to Cecil, and suddenly
Cecil becomes the legendary Paladin. Here the Dark Knight of Cecil's past comes out of the reflection, the other party
members try to help but Cecil tells them that it is his fight alone. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: DARK KNIGHT HP: ??? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- All
you have to do is survive this fight. As long as the text messages are completed, the battle is over as long as you remain
alive. Basically defend for about three rounds and it should be over.
After the boss fight Cecil is officially a Paladin now, his stats are significantly higher than those of a Dark Knight
and his HP is way up. Here Cecil wonders who was that light that kept calling him son. At the same time Tellah learns
all his past magic and the fabled legendary spell METEO. Even though Tellah has learned METEO his MP's are still too low
to cast METEO successfully. Here the party leaves Mt. Ordeals, when your heading out take a few battles to earn Cecil
some levels. After one battle you can find Cecil gaining 5 levels! Once you leave, outside you can save and use a TENT
if your HPs are low.
You do not have to take that long walk back to Mysidia because there is a small square shaped forest surrounded by
another forest just south of Mt. Ordeals. Inside is a Chocobo Forest. Look for the fast moving White Chocobo, each time
you talk to it, it will refill your entire MP. Also look for the large gap at the north part of the village and press the
"A" button and it will smell like a Fat Chocobo. Use a Gashyl if you have bought one and a Fat Chocobo will appear.
There really isn't much to do here because all the Fat Chocobo will do is just store your items. So incase all your 46
slots are filled in your Item Box, you can store your items here. Now talk to one of the yellow Chocobos and you will
be able to ride one of the Chocobos. Here return to Mysidia, you really don't have to ride on a Chocobo you can just return
back by walking if you want.
============================================================================= Return To Mysidia And The Mysidian Legend Party:
Cecil, Tellah, Parom, Palom Party's level: 15-20 Items: None Key Items: None Monsters: =============================================================================
Here just go to the middle of the town and talk to the Elder. Here the Elder is shocked and amazed to find that Cecil
is a Paladin, also when you talk to the people of Mysidia they will no longer turn you into a Toad or Pig. Also the
Elder admits his wrong doing by sending Palom and Porom to spy on Cecil, but he sees now that there was no need for that.
The Elder is once again shocked and amazed to find the Legend of Mysidia written on the sword, it reads:
Afterwards Tellah and Cecil are about to part for Baron as the Elder of Mysidia has opened up the Serpant Road(Devil's
Road in Japan) to travel to Baron. Before the two leaves Palom and Porom wishes to join Cecil, but the Elder tells them
that their job is done, but they still wish to help Cecil. Then the twins finally convince the Elder. The Serpant's road
is to the right of the town, before you leave make sure you buy all the Paladin equipment for Cecil. They are quite
costly but if you had fought every battle you encountered along the trip you should have had more than enough. Also
buy some equipment for Tellah because he is poorly equipped. Afterwards head for the Serpant Road and continue your way
to Baron.
============================================================================= Return To Baron Party: Cecil, Tellah,
Parom, Palom Party's level: 10 Items: Potion, Life Key Items: BaronKey Monsters: Karate, Guard =============================================================================
When you arrive here you will be at the town of Baron, make sure you go to the Inn first, but before you go in, check
the pot to the right outside of the Inn to collect a Potion and collect the items in the stored room inside the Inn,
the switch is the two crossed swords, you should get a few items. Afterwards talk to Yang and the guards around him will
attack you. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS FIGHT: GUARD
HP: 280(each) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This fight won't take long,
but the attacks of the GUARDs can be pretty damaging. Also watch out when they try to cast Mini on one of your party members,
quickly Heal that person that is changed by using the Mallet or Esuna spell. They can attack very hard, even if Cecil has
all of his Paladin equipment they can still do about 100+ HP of damage. Try to finish them off as quick as possible.
After the battle you will still hear the boss music, this time Yang will attack your party. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: Monk HP: 5600(rough estimate) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This
fight can be pretty hard, but with Tellah's newly aquired magic you should even things up. Here Yang will always use his
KICK command, it will do quite a bit of damage to all your party members, have Tellah attack with LIT3 and Palom attack
with FIRE2, and have Cecil attack with his normal attacks and have Porom be your healer. Quickly dispose of Yang so that
you do not suffer extensive damage. Try to avoid bringing back characters to life unless you use Life2, Yang is too
offensively quick with his Kick that it'll most likely instantly kill off weak party members.
After the battle Yand will come to his senses, it appears that he was under the influnce of Golbez's powerful mind
control and he will tell Cecil what had happened to Rydia and Edward. He does not know what happened to Edward but Rydia
was swallowed up by the Leviathan. After the scenario the two decide to talk at the inn so that the guards won't hear them.
The innkeeper will let you stay for free because you have gotten rid of the guards, in the Since you defeated the guards
and Yang, the innkeeper will let you stay for free.
In the Inn they discuss plans of how to free Cid, they realize that they have to break into the castle of Baron but
the guards won't let them through. Also Yang has the Key of Baron that was given to him while he was commander of the guards.
Here with the KEY OF BARON use it to unlock the weapons and armor shops. Yang is poorly equipped so buy him all the neccessary
equipment, and you might need to fight a few battles before you go on. After you are done go to the left side of town
and you will see a locked door, unlock it and enter through.
============================================================================= Waterway Party: Cecil, Tellah, Parom,
Palom, Yang Party's level: 10-30 Items: Potion, Ether, Ether, Hermes, Ancient sword, Silk Web, HrGlass1,
HiPotion Key Items: NA Monsters: Guard, FangShel, Hydra, Piranha, AquaWorm, ElecFish, Crocdile, Pike =============================================================================
Once you enter through here the enemies are quite strong, but luckily you listened to me and bought all those equipment
for Yang right? Now continue on and make your way to the top of the room and enter through the stairway. Continue on
to the next not so hidden area and make your way to the center of the room to recieve a LIFE POTION. Continue onto the
next room to the right. In this next room you will find an ETHER1 POTION, after you have taken that proceed to the next
room. In this next room immediately head for the door and in there you will find a save room. To the right side is the
ANCIENT SWORD. Do not bother equipping it on Cecil because its a bit weaker than Cecil's current sword. Now proceed
outside and onto the moat of the castle of Baron.
============================================================================= Return To Baron Castle Party:
Cecil, Tellah, Parom, Palom, Yang Party's level: 10-32 Items: Unihorn, Ether1, Life, Bacchus, Hermes, HiPotion, Tent,
Elixir Key Items: None Monsters: Baigan, Left Arm, Right Arm, Cagnazzo =============================================================================
Here when you are outside keep walking to the left and at the bottom left hand side of the castle is the entrance
to the castle. Incase you were left hurt during those battles in the old Water Way you can rest in Cecil's room in the left
tower. If your not hurt from those battles in the Old Water Way then proceed right and head towards the King's Throne Room.
Before you reach the King's throne room Baigan comes to greet you. Then Baigan joins your party, that makes a total
of six party members! Its too good to be true, but now you will stand an excellent chance against the King of Baron. Just
as you go off to find the King of Baron the twins smell a monster, Baigan looks or acts like he is surprised. The twins
already know he's a monster and they accuse him of having poor acting skills. You know what to expect now. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: BAIGAN, RIGHT ARM, LEFT ARM HP: 4444(BAIGAN) 444(ARMS) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This
fight will leave you wounded, so you must make quick moves. At any given time BAIGAN will set up a WALL on himself but
not his arms. So if Palom is at Level 19 have him cast Bio on BAIGAN which will do about 1200 HP of damage. Also when
BAIGAN does set up a WALL have Tellah cast WALL on any other party member and have your magic user focus their magic attack
on your party member with the WALL. Don't do it too often because the WALL can only bounce back attacks about two or
three times. Quickly eliminate the ARMs because that is what's causing most of the damage against your party. Continue
to attack and after a while BAIGAN will lose his WALL, have Palom use Bio to finish him off, but only when you know
he has lost his WALL, otherwise it will be a gamble. Or you can have Tellah use ICE3, FIRE3, or LIT-3. After the battle you
might want to return to Cecil's room and heal yourself and continue on towards the King's throne room. You can use a WALL
on Tellah and have him reflect his own magic as well.
Now head towards the King's Throne room which is on your way. Also before you head anywhere go to the right and take
the staircase. Then you will be outside the castle, continue on to the next staircase, in this next room you will notice
a hidden door. Use the "A" button to switch open the door, the switch is on the left torch and enter through the hidden
area and collect six treasure chests. After that go outside the castle and go past under the gate and into the tower.
In this room right here are two staircases to the right and left and four treasure chests. The treasure chest on the top
of the starcase can be reached if you enter the staircase and then re-enter the staircase you should stop right infront
of the treasure chest. Now take the left staircase going down and check the second pot from the left to recieve an ELIXIR.
Don't advance any further because a "mysterious" force will push you back and you will lose some HP if you do go near
the "mysterious" force. In the next room is a room full of treasure chests and pots, however there are only three treasure
chests that can be accessiable to you because the others are already opened and out of your reach. Also check the pots
for another ETHER1 POTION. Afterwards head towards the King's Throne Room...as you can expect, Cecil becomes enraged
at the King...as word that the King of Baron was overthrown, the battle starts.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS FIGHT: Cagnazzo
HP: 5312 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This boss fight is extremely
easy, if you know what to do. Have Palom use his Bio magic attack to easily wipe away 1000 of his HP, then have Tellah
use LIT-3 to cleanly dust off about 3000 of his HP, if he is not done by that then just keep attacking him until he's
nothing but plankton.
Here after the battle Cid comes in, and the party introduces themselves to Cid. Now the party must hurry to retrieve
the airship. But before they can do so Cagnazzo has already set a trap, the doors are locked and the walls are caving
in. Here the twins turn themselves into Stone and stop the wall from caving in. Tellah tries to break the spell but to
no avail, the twins willingly let their lives go to save the rest of the party. Tellah was the one who wanted to go
first, but Cid re-groups the party.
Meanwhile...In the Tower of Zot, Kain plans up a plot to capture the last crystal, they will exchange Rosa for the
crystal, and Kain will be the messenger, Rosa tries to stop Kain, but Kain is too much under the influnce of Golbez's
powerful mind control. Meanwhile back at the castle of Baron...
Cid unlocks the hidden entrance to his airship and the Enterprise flies off, then suddenly the Red Wings come but
they do not wish to fight this time. Kain delivers a message to Cecil, about trading in Rosa for the Crystal of Earth
in Toroia. Now land your airship infront of Baron and return to the King's chambers in the basement below, remember the
place with the mysterious force? Its gone now so enter it and the real King of Baron wishes to tell you something. He
tells you to go to the Land of Summoned Monsters and return back after your trip, then he leaves. That's for later in the
game. Now head back to your airship and fly towards Toroia, which is northwest of Baron. Also Cid starts out at level
20 with 788 HP, he can be put in the front, also he can do quite a bit of damage even though he carries a WOODEN HAMMER.
============================================================================= Troia Castle and Chocobo Village Party:
Cecil, Tellah, Cid, Yang Party's level: 20-35 Items: HiPotion, Ruby Ring, HiPotion, Ether1, Ether1, Tent, RubyRing,
Tent, TwinHarp, Bacchus, Ether1, Ether2, Illusion, 1000 Gil Key Items: None Monsters:
None =============================================================================
Here enter the castle of Troia. Inside is some music that's pleasant to the ear and the beautiful design of the castle.
For now keep going towards the center of the castle and meet the eight Clerics who govern the country of Troia. Talk
to the eight Clerics of Troia and they will give you some info. It appears that the Dark Elf has taken the Crystal of Earth
and sealed the cave with a metallic seal so that weapons of metal will become weak and heavy. Now head out and take
the right staircase and take the path down towards the door. Inside this room you will find three staircases, the middle
one contains an ETHER1 POTION, the staircase to the left contains a lady guarding the door to the secret treasure of Toroia,
you don't have permission to obtain those treasures yet, so take the right staircase and you will be in a room with
eight treasure chests. First flip the switch in the middle of the room by standing on it, and take the treasure chests
and equip the RubyRings for whatever metallic weapons you have.
Now head back to the 1F of the castle of Toroia and take the left staircase, and head towards the door on the bottom
and in this room you will find Edward, this is the first time you have met up with Edward since your encounter with
the Leviathan. Here Cecil tells what has happened with Rosa and Yang tells Edward that Rydia did not make it. Here Edward
gives you the TWINHARP, which no one but Edward can equip. Now leave the castle and head towards north of the castle
of Toroia, which is the Chocobo's village. Here is home to many Black Chocobos that have the ability to fly and land on
the forest. Talk to the Black Chocobo and head towards the cave which is northeast of the Castle of Toroia and souteast
of the chocobo's Village.
============================================================================= Cave of Dark Elf Party: Cecil, Tellah,
Cid, Yang Party's level: 21-35 Items: Silk Web, HrGlass1, 2000 Gil, Unihorn, HiPotion, Exit, Fairy Claw,
Ether1, HiPotion, Ether1 NOTE: You will receive 500 Gil in the SNES version. Key
Items: Earth Crystal Monsters: Cave Bat, CaveNaga, Mage, Ogre, VampGirl, Dark Elf, Dark Dragon =============================================================================
Here in this cave the metallic seal goes into effect, Yang can use his Claws and Tellah can go with his Magic, Cecil
should have a Bow and Arrow equipped. If you want you can just run away from battles in this area until you face off
against the Dark Elf. Now continue on to the wooden bridge, here take the right path to collect the HiPotion and continue
on keep going until you find the next ladder, also pick up the treasure chest to the left to collect a HEAL POTION and
enter through the ladder. In this next room take the right path and collect the ETHER1, now continue onto the the northeast
corner of the room to find a white door, enter it and in the room are two treasure chests, they are the ETHER1 and 2000
Gil.
Now head to the left and enter the ladder, in this next area you will see a door to the left which is a save room,
go ahead and save your game and heal your wounds if neccessary. Now keep going and in the room below is a LIFE POTION,
and two HiPotions. Now head out and continue onto the left past the bridge, take the path in the middle and enter through
the door. Here a treasure chest is straight above you which is a Fairy claw for Yang, equip it and move onto the left.
In this next room which is B4F, take the bridge to the left, when you reach an area with a bunch of candles take the right
path across the bridge and you will be gievn yet another chance to save. Save your game and head out now head to the
door, but make sure you go around and pick up an HrGlass1. In this next room the music changes, its the Crystal room and inside
it is the DARK ELF. Here he will not let you take the crystal of Earth and a fight will start. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: DARK ELF HP: 23890 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just
lose this fight and save your energy.
Afterwards the party is weak and if Cecil cannot use his weapons then he cannot defeat the DARK ELF. Meanwhile Edward
wishes to help out the party, so he plays his harp which is painful to the ear of the DARK ELF and it lowers the DARK
ELF's metallic seal. Here take this chance to equip yourself with all your metallic gear. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: DARK ELF HP: 3927 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just
keep pounding on this guy, until he is gone. After you lose him about 1500 HP of damage he will change form. Tellah's magic
is basically useless, but Cecil using his LEGEND sword will do about 700+ damage against him. Try too keep your party's
HP above 250 and have Tellah be your healer.
Afterwards the DARK ELF dies, so take the Crystal of Earth and return to Toroia. To make a short cut have Tellah use
his WARP magic(or use the Exit item you found earlier) once he is outside the Crystal Room. Now head back to the center
of the Castle of Toroia where the Clerics are. Inside the Clerics greet you, then suddenly Kain tells you to take the Crystal
to his airship and he will show him where Rosa is. Beofre you leave go to the room where the lady was guarding the treasure
earlier, now the treasure of Toroia is now yours!
Now head back to Edward's room, and a short scenario will take place, Tellah now respects Edward and will avenge Anna's
death and also avenge Edward's injury. Now leave Toroia and head for your airship and make sure you save your game before
you enter you airship.
============================================================================= Tower of Zot Party: Cecil, Tellah,
Cid, Yang Party's level: 25-40 Items: Flame Armor, Flame Sword, Wizard Robe, Gaia Hammer, Flame Shield,
HellClaw Key Items: MagmaKey Monsters: Valvalis, Cindy, Mindy, Sandy, Carapace, Centaur, EpeeGirl,
Gremlin, IceBeast, Ice Liz, Marion, Puppet, Slime, SwordMan, Witch,
FlameDog =============================================================================
Now immediately when you board your airship Kain tells you to follow his airship after Cecil has shown him the Crystal
of Earth. From here you will never bea ble to enter this tower again so make sure you collect everything you find and
watch for the monsters here, they can get pretty tough. Now make your way towards the top left corner of the room and collect
the FIRE armor and continue on to floor 2. In this next room is only one treasure chest which contains a Flame sword.
It is guarded by a FlameDog, so make absolutely sure Cecil did not equip the Flame Armor or he will get seriously burned.
Try not to fight many battles here because enemies can get quite tough. After you have collected the Flame sword continue
onto the next floor.
In this room the door to the next room is directly above you so make your way around, and there are no treasure chests
in here. Now in this next room there are three doors in the middle and another door to the right. Here take the first
door to the right in the middle and pick up the WIZARD robe, equip it on Tellah, but remember to de-equip it off of him
later. In the middle of the middle rooms is a EARTH hammer for Cid, equip it on Cid and don't worry about the treasure
chest above it.
Now enter the next room to the left and to the right is the treasure chest above the one with the Gaia Hammer. Inside
you will find a HellClaw for Yang, equip it and continue on to the left. At the bottom here you will see a treasure
chest, open it to pick up a Flame shield for Cecil and return back to the room you were in before. In this room take the
room all the way to the right. Enter the door and you will be back at the fifth floor again, before you enter the room
in the middle make sure you save it in the room before it, heal your wounds and continue on. Here before you make it to
the next room the Magus sisters will stop you. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: Sandy, Mindy, Cindy HP: 2590(Mindy), 4599(Cindy), 2591(Sandy) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This
fight is fairly easy. First attack the Fat one(Mindy). They will use their DELTA attack which is a pretty lame attack that
can cause gradual petrify, which is about it. Sandy will use a WALL on Mindy, while Cindy will use either FIRE2, ICE2,
or LIT-2 to reflect off of Mindy. Have Tellah attack either one with Bio besides Mindy one because she has a WALL on. Have
Cid use his Gaia Hammer as an item repeatedly to do about 240 damage to all three sisters(don't worry you can use this
over and over again), have Yang and Cecil attack as normal. Afterwards the Magus sisters shall be defeated.
Here the sisters will fade away, continue onto the next room. In this next room you will see Kain and Golbez. Cecil
hands over the crystal to Golbez but he will not let them through to Rosa. Tellah dislikes the fact and blurs out
at him, Golbez has no business with Tellah, but Tellah does. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: GOLBEZ HP: 10000 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This
boss fight, Tellah fights alone. If you notice Golbez in this battle scene looks a lot like EXDEATH from FF5(then again,
Ex-Death came after Golbez), but I'm not going to get into it. Here Tellah fights automatically with Bio, FIRE3, LIT-3,
and ICE3. All those spells have very little effect on Golbez, then Tellah decides to use METEO, but how, he doesn't even
have enough MP! Tellah turns his HP into MP and casts METEO, it knocks Golbez out of submission.
Here Tellah is lying on the floor. Golbez escapes and calls Kain, but Kain is unconsious, the METEO spell had broken
Golbez's link over Kain and Golbez escapes alone. Before Golbez leaves Cecil wants to end his evil life right now, but
Golbez shocks him away with lightning. Cecil questions why doesn't he finish him off, but Golbez seems to question who
Cecil is. Here they go over to Tellah who is critically wounded. Tellah blames this on himself because of his own hatred,
he slowly dies and the party gives their final respect and Cecil will promise to avenge Anna and Tellah.
NOTE: This is just a small tidbit, but in the easy version(FF2, SNES), an iron ball
was in place of a guillotine in the hard version(FF4, PSX). So basically it was just a completely
different animation from the two games.
Now go over to Kain, the door behind them is locked. When Kain wakes up he realizes that Rosa is in danger and they
quicly dash into the next room and save Rosa in time just before the iron ball drops on Rosa. Here Kain puts his head
down in disgust because he nearly let Rosa get killed, and its pretty funny when you here Cid's remarks! Here Kain admits
that he just wanted to be with Rosa and asks both Cecil and Rosa for their forgiveness, then Cid quickly tells them
to leave now, then Cecil pulls together Kain and they leave. But just about as they were to leave the fiend of air comes
through with an evil laughter that scrimishes across the hears of the party. Valvalis said she should have gotten rid
of Kain, but she will have to defeat the entire party to do that. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: VALVALIS HP: 8636 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This
boss fight is pretty hard and will drain alot out of your party. When she turns into a whirlwind, have Kain jump to stop
her spin. Also she will use WEAK quite often and will use RAY directly after WEAK as well, so make sure you heal your
party quickly and cure them if need. Also Rosa is not equipped with any weapons so equip her with a BOW and ARROW if you
have some and have her attack when the party is still healthy. Have Cecil constantly attack, and also Yang and Cid attack
as well. Keep this up and you should be able to defeat her.
Here Valvalis will tell you that the strongest of the four elements still exist. Before she leaves to the afterworld
she will destroy the tower, but Rosa will tell the party to hold on, as she casts the spell of EXIT. Then the party
arrives at Cecil's bedroom in Baron. Here Kain tells the party about the Crystals, Golbez has all four crystals and the
world is doomed right? Wrong. Here Kain tells the party of the other four crystals known as the Dark Crystals. So Golbez
has only gathered half the crystals and the hidden side of the Earth is the underground.
Kain also tells them that when all the crystals of both the Earth and Underground are gathered, the way to the moon
opens. Here Kain gives them the Magma key, but they don't know where to throw the key in. Then Cid's music comes on
and tells them that they will find the place to throw the Magma key in not time with the help of the Enterprise. But I
thought it was lost in the Tower of Zot, but never question Cid's genius, the Enterprise flew back to Baron by remote
control.
Here Cecil wonders why Golbez didn't finish off Cecil, but he tells the party its nothing and they go to sleep. Here
you can visit back to where Palom and Porom was stoned, if you click the "A" button you will see your menu screen pop
up. But you are not suppose to de-stone them nor can you ever. Now head outside and make it to your airship. Before you
go start looking for the place, you can visit the Town of Mist again, if not then head for the town of Agart, which
south of Baron...it's a semi-large island with a town below a giant mountain.
============================================================================= Town Of Agart Party: Cecil, Rosa,
Yang, Cid, Kain Party's level: 28-42 Items: Boreas(FF4)/Cure2(FF2) Key Items: None Monsters: None =============================================================================
Here this place is Agart, a peaceful nation that will talk alot about Dwarves. Here in this town a treasure chest
is hidden in the green grassy area with a Cure2/Boreas. You really do not need to buy weapons because most of the equipment
you have is better than the stuff they sell, now head towards the bottomless well, the guy infront was talking to you about
and throw in the MAGMA key, which will cause an earthquake that will split the mountain. Enter the mountain with your
airship.
============================================================================= Underground World Party: Cecil, Rosa,
Kain, Yang, Cid Party's level: 28-42 Items: 5000 Gil, Dwarf Axe, Bacchus, Elixir, Ether1, Elixir, Bacchus, Ether1,
Strength Glove, Cabin, Gyashl, HiPotion, Cabin, Gyashl, Cabin, HrGlass2, Gyashl Key
Items: None Monsters: None =============================================================================
Here when you enter the mountain the ship is suddenly taken down by shots from the Red Wings. This time the Red Wings
are not after Cecil. It seems like a War is going on between some tanks and the Red Wings. The Enterprise trys to dodge
the firepower but a couple shots hit the Enterprise and they fall down. Here Cecil has suffered only minor injuries but
the Enterprise is serverely damaged. The enterprise lands in front of giant castle. Here save your game and enter through.
Also I would like to mention that congratulations! You have achieved half-way through the game, and the other half is
tougher than most battles you have encountered.
============================================================================= Dwarven Castle Party: Cecil, Rosa,
Yang, Cid, Kain Party's level: 28-42 Items: 5000 Gil, Dwarf Axe, Bacchus, Elixir, Ether1, Elixir, Bacchus, Ether1,
Strength Glove, Cabin, Gyashl, HiPotion, Cabin, Gyashl, Cabin, HrGlass2, Gyashl Key
Items: None Monsters: Cal, Brina, Calbrina, Golbez, Shadow =============================================================================
Here enter the castle and go directly in the middle. The conversation will automatically start. Here they introduce
themselves and Cecil asks for the cyrstal but apparently two out of four were taken from Golbez. However the crystal
in his castle is still safe. Here the King asks the party to help support them with their airship but the Enterprise is
badly damage and can't even fly over magma. Cid will leave the party. The party say there goodbyes, but suddenly Yang's
incredible instincts point out that he feels that someone is evesdropping on the party. The party and the King's men look
but nobody is there. Then the King opens the door to the Crystal room and when the party enters they see wierd dolls
jumping around and also the door behind them is locked. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: CAL & BRINA, CALBRINA HP: CAL(1369) BRINA(369) CALBRINA(5315) -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This boss fight is pretty tough(since your one party member short) so don't be surprised that you find yourselves
losing early on. First have Cecil attack the CALs, have Kain JUMP the CALs, have Yang perform his KICK, and have Rosa
AIM at the BRINAs. Continue to do this until they are all gone. However if by any chance you leave one of them standing
they can still form into CALBRINA, who's attacks are very powerful and has alot of HP. If this happens hit CALBRINA
with your best attacks, also if you do not destroy CALBRINA in time before she forms back into the 6 dolls, that means
you will have to face the 6 dolls all over again despite the fact that you may of destroy 5 out of the 6 dolls earlier.
I really can't offer much strategy because I've barely won this battle.
After the battle Golbez appears. He tells you why is he is after the crystals. Apparently with all eight crystals
in his hand he will re-activate the Tower of Bab-il and open a path to the moon. Legends says that the Moon possesses
limitless power. Here Golbez has only one more crystal to collect after he takes this one. Here a battle will start with
Golbez. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS FIGHT: GOLBEZ and SHADOW
HP: 800(SHADOW) 2800(GOLBEZ) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here the
party's attacks continously but all their attacks miss, then suddenly he puts a HOLD GAS on the entire party which paralyzes
them. Here the battle seems hopeless. Here the party goes down by SHADOW's attacks one by one, until Cecil goes, but
suddenly the Mist Dragon Cecil and Kain had destroyed earlier comes and blows them with a Mist that destroys the Shadow Dragon.
Here an unknown mysterious voice heals the party and they can move now. Suddenly its Rydia! She's back and this time with
more powers than she left with! She has 5 new summons and much more new Black magic attacks, use anyone of her summons
and have Cecil attack. After that Golbez will fall like a rotten cookie.
Here Rydia tells the party that Leviatan had swallowed her up and took her to the Land of Summoned Monsters, where
all Summoned Monsters live. There time flows much quicker and Rydia's appearance is much more adult like. Here Golbez's
hand takes the Crystal and the party reappears at the King's room. Here the party knows that the last Crystal is at the
Sealed Cave to the south. The King has devised of a plan to lure the Tower of Bab-il's fire power to the tanks so the
party can sneak in and take the crystals. Here the King tells you that the exit to the Tower of Bab-il is at the bottom
of this castle.
Before you go anywhere make sure you explore this castle, its pretty big and has some nifty items. Also right after
the King finishes talking to you have Rydia Warp and you will be in the Crystal room, even though you saw Golbez take
the crystal the crystal is still there for some strange reason.
============================================================================= Tower of Babil Party: Cecil, Rosa,
Yang, Rydia, Kain Party's level: 28-42 Items: Ice Arrows, Ether1, Bandanna, IceSpear, Ice Arrows, HiPotion, Notus,
IceArmor, IceShld, Boreas, Archer Bow, HiPotion, Ether2, Life, CatClaw Key Items:
Tower Key Monsters: Alert, Egg, EvilDoll, FlameDog, FlameMan, Chimera, Medusa, Naga,
Stoneman, Tofu, Dr.Lugae, Balnab, Balnab-Z, Lugaborg =============================================================================
You'll see tank fire when you arrive at the Tower of Bab-il, so while they distract the Tower enter through. Now take
the right path of the room and pick up an Ether1 and enter the middle of the room. Now in this next room pick up the
BANDANA to the left and continue down. Take the very next door you see, inside is a treasure chest inside is an ALERT,
each time you attack it when a monster is not present it will call another monster. After you defeat him equip the IceSpear
and continue on. Now take the right door and inside is another treasure chest, and also another battle with an ALERT.
After you win the battle you will recieve a ICE BRAND sword, equip it and move on. In this next room take the treasure
chest to the left and pick up a CATCLAW for Yang. From here to the right is a HiPotion, after you have picked that up
go to the right door in the room and also pick up the LIFE POTION. Here in this room is another LIFE POTION and an ARCHER
BOW, equip the Bow and head back into the room. Now head to the left door. In this room go to the left and enter a save
point, save your game and continue onto the right side of this room.
Now enter the room to the bottom, you will have to fight an ALERT here, but win the battle to pick up an ICE SHIELD.
The room to the right has nothing inside so go to the room at the top to fight another ALERT, this time if you win you
recieve an ICE SHIELD. Equip both ICE equipment on and continue through to the top left. Now in this next room go get the
treasure chest to the right contains 2,000 GOLD. Now continue to the right, but ignore the room in the middle because
its locked. Also pick up a HiPotion on the way and continue upwards into the next room. Here just go to the door on the
left.
In this next room take the right side and into a door to find a SAVE POINT, save your game and continue on. Also pick
up an Ether2 right before the next room. Here just continue on and make it to the left side of the room. Here you will
see Dr. Lugae and Rubicant having a conversation. Here after Dr. Lugae has transported Rubicant out he is excited that
he is the only one here. Rydia calls him a "Wierd Guy...!" and then finally Dr.Lugae notices them. Here Kain makes
a few smart remarks and Dr. Lugae calls his robot BALNAB. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: DR.LUGAE, BALNAB/BALNAB-Z HP: 4936(DR.LUGAE) 4832(BALNAB) 4518(Z) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here
in this battle start things off with Cecil attacking Dr. Lugae and have Kain Jump Dr. Lugae, also have Rosa aim at Dr.
Lugae as well as Yang attack Dr. Lugae. For Rydia have her summon INDRA. Keep pounding on Dr.Lugae until he is gone
so that he doesn't constantly heal BALNAB. At first BALNAB will attack Dr. Lugae, but then he will attack you so his hit
is actually a freebie. This fight isn't too tough, but if you do not kill BALNAB in time before he explodes, then most
likely one of your characters will die because the EXPLODE takes off loads of damage, or depending on how much HP he has left
will tell how much damage he will inflict. Note that if you defeat Balnab first before you finish off Dr.Lugae, he will
control Balnab, which is basically Balnab-Z.
After this battle Dr. Lugae still stands, but this time he has a trick up his sleeve. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: Lugaborg HP: 10101 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This
fight is a little tougher than the last so take some extra precautions. First take a few swings at him before he turns
into a skeleton. Have Rosa AIM and heal if neccessary. Have Rydia cast INDRA or JINN, have Kain JUMP and have both Yang
and Cecil attack. Watch out for the LASER attack, it'll most likely kill off one of your party members, so revive them
also watch out for the GAS, it will paralyze your party member, but you can wait and have DR. LUGAE heal you or heal
the party member yourself. Afterwards you should be able to win and collect the TOWER key.
After the battle the Super Cannon is almosted charged up so head back to the middle room that was locked earlier.
Here when you enter this room the Super Cannon is about to fire, but Cecil interrupts their play and the three DARK IMPs
attack them. Finish them off like yesterday's lunch.
Here the DARK IMPs make their final move by detonating the Super Cannon. Here Yang decides to stop the Super Cannon
from exploding, but Yang knocks them out of the room. Here Yang sacrifices himself and the Super Cannon explodes. Now
exit out of the Tower. Before the party leaves Golbez interrupts them and knocks out the bridge and the party falls below.
Luckily Cid is back from his trip, and they tell Cid about Yang.
Suddenly the Red Wings approach them, they try to out manuver the Red Wings, but somehow the Red Wings were re-modified,
and without Cid! Here the party can't shake off the Red Wings and Cid says his last goodbyes before he denonates the
bomb. Its a shame too see a good friend go off like that, so that's 6 six people lost at the hands of Golbez. Its time
we show Golbez how the party feels. Before Cid left he told the party to head towards Baron to ask his workers for help.
============================================================================= Modified Airship Party: Cecil, Rosa,
Yang, Rydia Kain Party's level: 28-42 Items: None Key Items: None Monsters: None =============================================================================
First when you enter here make your way to the right side of the castle and you will see two people standing outside
below the right tower. Talk to them and Cid's crew has already been informed to attach a hook to the Enterprise. After
the crew is done now that party can hook and attach the Hovercraft. To attach the Hovercraft, simply go over it and press
the "A" button. Here the crew tells you that you can reach the Cave of Eblan near the Tower of Bab-il. So remember where
you last left your Hovercraft? Yes you got it, near Mt. Hobs directly northeast of Baron. Now go southwest of Baron and
land your Hovercraft and go to the Cave of Eblan just under the Tower of Bab-il.
============================================================================= Eblan Caves And The Tower of Babil Party:
Cecil, Rosa, Yang, Rydia, Kain Party's level: 40-43 Items: Vampire, Shuriken, Remedy, HiPotion, Ether2, BloodSwd, Soft,
Kamikaze, Cabin, Tent, Potion, HrGlass2, Silk Web, Elixir, Life, Elixir, Ether1
NOTE: In Final Fantasy II(SNES), 800 Gold, 850 Gold, 2000 Gold and
Heal potions replace items such as Silk Web, HrGlass2, and
Kamikaze items. Key Items: None Monsters: Giant Bat, Skull, IronBack, Ballon, BlackCat, Mad Ogre, Sorcerer,
BladeMan, Grudger, Lamia, King Eblan, Queen Eblan, Rubicant, Red
Bone, BlackLiz, Q.Lamia, Egg =============================================================================
From here go to the right and pick up a SHURIKEN dart. To the bottom right of the cave is 1200 GOLD, after that go
to the next room. In this area monsters will not attack you, and the people of Eblan are now living in the caves, take
a look around and buy some new equipment. You can buy an extra ICE armor and also an extra ICE shield for Kain if you like,
but since he is jumping most of the time I don't think that would be neccessary.
Also I would consider buying a BLACK gown for Rydia because it suits her better than her current equipment. The weapons
shop is a complete waste of time because you already have the equipment they are selling. So continue on to the bottom
left room. Here you will get information that the Ninjas of Eblan are defeated rather easily and also check the pots at
the end of the nursing room to pick up a Potion and also the pot near the entrance of the nursing room to pick up another
Potion. After that's all done and done head out and onto the next area.
In this next area is the Pass to Bab-il. Continue onto the next room and you will find nother downed guard. To the
right of this room is another SHURIKEN dart. Continue and in this room through the hidden passage is two treasure chests
containing two ELIXIRs.
Continue onwards to the top and onto the next room. Here in this next room is a save point, you might want to save
before collecting the treasure chest to the right. If you do decide to pick up the treasure chest, it contains a BloodSwd
sword for Cecil, but you must defeat two STALEMANs to obtained it. After you have saved your game exit out of the save
room and go to the top, but before you do pick up the LIFE POTION to the left side. When you reach the top you will
see a mysterious Ninja battling the almighty Rubicant.
Here you will know that the man's name is Edge. Here at first all looks well, but then Edge casts FLAME which is Rubicant's
strength and suddenly Rubicant uses Scorch(Glare in FF2), a powerful attack that knocks out Edge. After the battle Rubicant
tells him he is strong but not strong enough and tells him to fight him once he has become strong enough. Here the party
talks to Edge and tells them that they are on the same side. Obviously it will take some convincing to have Edge in
the party.
Before you proceed to the next room pick up an ETHER2 before you go. Here in this next room is the other side of the
Tower of Bab-il. The party wonders how they will get in, but Edge is a ninja remember? He easily slips by the wall.
After that go around and find your way to the next door, but before you enter the door pick up another Elixir to the right.
In this next room is a treasure chest in the middle. Pick it up to recieve an OGRE axe, but you must fight for it, against
four MAD OGREs that is! After that continue on to the next room.
Here proceed to the right, and along the way pick up the treasure chest to obtain a Ashura blade for Edge and proceed
to the left and onto the next room. In this room ignore the orb in the middle and proceed to the right of the room and
enter the first door. Inside this room is a save spot, heal your wounds and save and continue on to the right room. Here
just go to the room on the left. When you enter here you will see a center room, which looks alot like the Super Cannon
room, but its not the Super Cannon room this time. Before you enter the room Edge sees his parents, but they are not themselves. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS
FIGHT: K.EBLAN, Q.EBLAN HP: 65,535(K.EBLAN) 65,535(Q.EBLAN) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- In
this battle you don't have to do anything. Keep your party healed and the King and Queen of Eblan will come to their senses.
Here in this battle both Queen Eblan and King Eblan tell them that they are no longer human. They say their final farewells
and they die themselves.
Here Rubicant will appear and Edge is fustrated with him, Rubicant tells him that it was Dr. Lugae that turned his
parents into monsters and he apologizes for it. He tells them that he fights fair and is unlike the other Fiend of Elements.
Here Edge releases his Rage and learns FLOOD and BLITZ. Before you fight Rubicant you can pick up the 82,000 Gil treasure
chest to the left if you want or after the battle and make sure you do not heal yourselv
