Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles - Strategy Guide (Page 05)
Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles - Strategy Guide (Page 05).
Make your way along the dungeon. To open the gates blocking you or covering
treasure chests, you will need to get above the gate and hit the skull switch
for each one.
On the map above where the "M" is, you will need to open that gate and then
enter the alcove and go to the back left corner of it. You will get an
"Examine" on the screen. Press "A" and go inside to grab another stamp.
Also, you will come to some skull switches above what looks like cave openings
blocked by boulders. These switches do not work and you cannot open the
boulder openings. These will open up later in the game so ignore them for
now. You will also notice an area on the right of the Goblin Wall that you
cannot get to along with a treasure chest you cannot get to. Ignore that for
now since you cannot get it until later in the game when the boulder doors
open up.
Just keep climbing up the Goblin Wall and grabbing all the items from the
treasure chests. Eventually you will get to the top where there is an iris
door with a pedestal near it. Take out the enemies there and grab the key
to open it up. Head on inside for your next boss battle.
-- Boss Battle --
Name: Goblin Mage
Strategy:
Take out the small goblins immediately. Once they are out of the way
start attacking the main Golbin Mage with physical focus attacks. Just get
around behind him and attack. Wait until he starts casting and move around
behind him. Then charge up your attack and unleash it. If you have strong
magical attacks you can try to use them instead. However, I think physical
attacks work much better. If he summons any of the smaller goblins, take
them out quickly and return to fighting the boss. The key to this battle is
to keep moving at all times.
--
You will receive your first drop of myrrh for year 2.
After you defeat the Goblin Mage, you will get the option to read your new mail
and send something back to your family. Send them something depending on what
trade your family is. You will also get the option of choosing which artifact
you want to keep.
GO COLLECT ALL SECRET ITEMS FROM TOWNS.
Return to the Goblin Wall and use the menu to change your chalice to the Fire
elemental. Now head through the Miasma Stream. Once you reach Ironmine Downs
head to The Mushroom Forest and change your chalice to the water element.
Then head to the Miasma Stream and go through to the other side.

Upon reaching this new area called the Vale of Alfitaria, head up the path to
Alfitaria. Enter the town and head to the right after crossing the bridge.
Find the steps leading down on the right side of the town and go down them. At
the bottom, follow the path all the way to the left to find an "Examine"
popup. Examine the area to find a moogle house. Enter it and grab another
stamp.
Now leave and head back up the steps. Now go all the way to the left side of
the town and when you find some stairs leading up, go to the left side of them
and search around. You will find another SECRET Item.
When you are ready, exit the town and head up to Tida.

Make your way along the ruined town of Tida. Use Fire spells on the plants
that block your way to make them go away long enough for you to pass through.
If you have Fira or Firaga, cast it on the plants to make them permanently go
away.
If you see a pedestal underneath some vines, simply torch them with a Fire
spell to uncover the pedestal.
Find the "M" on the map and go inside the hole in the house to grab another
stamp.
Now follow the path along and eventually you will reach the next boss.
-- Boss Battle --
Name: Armstrong
Strategy:
Take out the small skeletons immediately. Once they are out of the
way start attacking Armstrong with physical focus attacks. Just get around
behind him and attack. Charge up your attack and unleash it. If you have
strong magical attacks you can try to use them instead. However, I think
physical attacks work much better. If he summons any of the smaller
skeletons, take them out quickly and return to fighting the boss. The key to
this battle is to keep moving at all times. If you find yourself low on
health, just run to an open spot and heal. This battle shouldn't be too
difficult.
--
You will receive your second drop of myrrh for year 2.
After you defeat Armstrong, you will get the option to read your new mail and
send something back to your family. Send them something depending on what
trade your family is. You will also get the option of choosing which artifact
you want to keep. I would suggest choosing the Chocobo Pocket if you got one
to permanently increase your command slots.
GO COLLECT ALL SECRET ITEMS FROM TOWNS.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[115] -- Shella --------------------------------------------------------------
Now, change your chalice element to Earth using the menu at Tida and go
through the Miasma Stream over to Veo Lu. Follow the path over to the left
to find the town of Shella. You will be greeted and told that you cannot
enter the town unless you have the Mark of Shella. When you leave the town
your diary will also be updated.
Now, to get the Mark of Shella enter Veo Lu Sluice and kill all the enemies
that you can access for now. One of the enemies will drop a Mark of Shella
that you can use to enter Shella. Once you have the Mark of Shella, simply
exit Veo Lu Sluice and return to Shella. Give the Mark of Shella to the
person standing near the entrance and he will create a bridge for you to
cross.
Note: Once you use the Mark of Shella, it is gone forever. To get another
one, you can buy one from a merchant in town, or find another one in
Veo Lu Sluice. I suggest buying a couple from the merchant before
leaving the town.
Here is a map of Shella:

To World Map
In order to open doors, simply stand on one of the pads in front of the door
and once the glyph changes to the same symbol that represents your characters
race (Clavat, Lilty, Yuke, or Selkie), the door will open.
To get to the boss you simply need to go through the house and find and kill
all 10 of the Tonberry's. Use the map above to find all 10 of them and take
them out. I recommend starting with the bottom left hand corner room and
going clockwise around the house until you have gotten them all. That way you
will only have to go into each room once and you will get all the treasures.
Find the "M" Moogle House in the room on the left of the house under the large
table and go inside to get your next stamp.
Make your way through the manor until you reach the next boss.
-- Boss Battle --
Name: Jack (Gigas Master) & Maggie (Lamia Wife)
Strategy:
At the start of the battle, run up to Jack and hit him once. This
will trigger a scene where Maggie comes out to help Jack. Once she appears
focus all your attacks on her until she is defeated. You will know she is
defeated when you see her go to the bottom left door of the house and sits
there the rest of the battle. Don't worry if you don't see a health bar when
you attack Maggie, she doesn't have one, but eventually you will defeat her.
Now that she is out of the way, turn all your attacks towards Jack.
Try to get behind Jack and attack him. Eventually he will go down.
--
You will receive your third drop of myrrh for year 2.
After you defeat Jack & Maggie, you will get the option to read your new mail
and send something back to your family. Send them something depending on what
trade your family is. You will also get the option of choosing which artifact
you want to keep.
Upon completing The Moschet Manor, you will conclude year 2. You will
see a long scene showing the myrrh ceremony revitalizing the crystal and a
celebration. During the scene all of the diary entries you gathered during
your first year will be displayed. You can choose to skip them if you want
and it will not affect the game.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[117] Year 3
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's a new year and it's time to set off again in search of three more drops
of myrrh. Since it takes two years for myrrh trees to replenish (every other
year), we cannot visit the three places we did in year two to collect myrrh.
You can still go there and get items and artifacts, but not myrrh.
Before you set off, go and find your family and talk to them. Hopefully they
will give you something like money, fruits & vegetables, etc.
GO COLLECT ALL SECRET ITEMS FROM TOWNS.
If you want to you can shop around and talk to people. When you are ready,
exit the town.
Upon exiting you will be stopped by the town elders. Roland will talk to you
about your destiny and send you on your way.
On the world map, head up to River Belle Path and change your element to Wind.
Head through the Miasma stream and go to The Mine of Cathuriges and change
your chalice element to Fire and go through the next miasma stream. Now go to
Moschet Manor and change your chalice element to Water and go through the
miasma stream to Veo Lu. Now head over to Veo Lu Sluice.

Make your way through Veo Lu Sluice to the end boss and take him out.
-- Boss Battle --
Name: Golem
Strategy:
As soon as the battle begins, take out the two flans as quickly as
possible. Once you have them out of the way, attack the main boss. If he
casts slow on you, either wait until it wears off or use a Clear spell to get
rid of it. Use fruits, vegetables, or Cure spells to heal yourself if you
need to. Get around behind Golem and use physical attacks. Eventually he
will go down.

You will receive your first drop of myrrh for year 3.
After you defeat the boss, you will get the option to read your new mail
and send something back to your family. Send them something depending on what
