EVENT, new map spot.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PARADISE ISLAND, PHORCHOON
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Side trip. Before continuing with the story, I stopped here.

My recommendation here, is to go into the "Free Fight" and fight up as far as
you can in the matches, then "pass", and collect enough coins to purchase the
Arts Books for Kazan and Sharon, and if you like cooking, the cook book.

Get 1 Gremlin Badge(140) and 2 Holy Badges (280 coins)
Combine Gremlin and Holy for an Extract Badge.
This will give you NO ENCOUNTERS.
And the Holy Badge will give you Item Grabber.

If you want the Tireless Ribbon, get the Master and Kamikaze ribbons from the
Casino shop, and then prepare for a few hours of defending to build up the
250 exp for each accessory to combine them (need healing, and winged, and
sagely, and muscle ribbons, lots of 250xp needed. 7 Master, 4 Kamikaze)

Once you can easily wipe out the Free Fight, you can get tons of coins here,
and possibly get Tireless Ribbons as a prize for winning all 8 battles.

*****
Auction
*****
Obviously you won't get stuff for the same price all the time, so a list isn't
very useful. Perhaps a list of what you can get would be, however. But, since
we're trying to get through the game fast, come back here at your leisure or
find a more in-depth FAQ.
In the only auction I attended, I picked up:
Inscribed Sword (furniture) for 21,200gp
and Leaf of Mysticism for 6,000gp (probably could have gone lower)

Angel's Miracle -
Obtain picture in guild quest for under 50,000 (4,700 funds left in mine)
This is possible... I bid the same increment as the one previous to my turn.
Example: 21,500, 21,800... my turn... I bid 22,100
This generally kept the price low.

*****
Championship Tournament
*****
(can't participate until the story makes you fight here)
Must win all 8 matches to receive Coins.

*****
Gambling Arena
*****
Random bonuses or detriments to battle condtions. 8 Fights.
Must win all 8 matches to receive Coins.

*****
Battle Maniax
*****
Special conditions to win each match. 8 Fights.
Can "pass" (where run would be) to quit and receive coins won thus far.

*****
Free Fight: 1140 coins (random prizes)
*****
Can "pass" to quit and receive coins won thus far.
Try to go as far as possible. When you first start here, you can probably
get up to round 6 fine, but 7 and 8 are usually a Mystic Giant a powerful mage.

If you have enough blocks to use the "free" or positive AP combos listed
for Lang, above, these fights will be over in 1 round (except the giant).

Mystic Giant is a pain, able to do around 1,500 damage per round, and
when I got there, I could barely take him out in 3 rounds... if he went
first in the final round, I was doomed. Once you get into a healing routine,
he's won.
The Mage is easy if you go first, but he's a killer if he goes first.

You might want to equip:
Something to prevent Blindness (Abyss Servant)
and something to prevent Confusion (the mage)

You get 3 prizes each time you win all 8 Fights.
Izumo Bronze, Jubon Rock, Statue of Arkuslam (artwork)
Blessing Pill, Restore Potion, Spirit's Blessing
Immortality Potion, Oble Gold Dust, Golden Dragon (artwork)
Resurrect Bottle, Angel's Blessing, Goddess's Blessing
Ultimate Blessing, Ultimate Miracle, Angel's Blessing
Unassailable Pill, Transparent Pill, Goddess's Blessing

(6840 coins - bought 1 skill scroll - Kazan's Hyper Art)

Sage Symbol, *****TIRELESS RIBBON*****, Sagely Ribbon
Evil Jungo Stone, Meteorite, Statue of Arkuslam (artwork)
Redeeming Symbol, Leech Symbol, Iron Wall Badge
Sixteenth Night, God Fist Doublet, Ruler's Gauntlets

(6540 coins - bought the remaining skill scroll - Sharon's Hyper Art)

Izumo Bronze, Jubon Rock, Rosanne's Clock (artwork)
Ultimate Miracle, Restore Potion, Spirit's Blessing
Cib Silver Crystal, Galma Gold Dust, Flower in Buraje (artwork)
Zorda Hide, Silver Stone, Count Rembreau (artwork)
Warrior's Hand, Cursed Shadow, Night Striker
Extract Badge, Leech Symbol, *****TIRELESS RIBBON*****

And thus, I stopped fighting here, got the cook book, and moved on.

BUBBA was the final opponent once... Anti-Bewitch is ESSENTIAL to beat him.
Lyps Master was another strange final opponent... ABSORB NORMAL
(Normal attacks healed it... use Galea's Blazing Smash for a quick win.)
Gorva may also appear in round 7 or 8.

AFTER you are forced to play here, and you get "Sleeping Dragon" and a
Tireless Ribbon, the Free Fight is EASY. 2 Sleeping Dragons per round = WIN

*****
Dream Match
*****
Have to win 3 of the above Match types to unlock.
Must win all matches to receive coins.

Now that we have the final member of our team, and the key item to proceed,
go back to Drokonia.
MiniEVENT, examine big rock, MiniEVENT
Go North, past the first intersection, then take the left path.
Use Ayne and Kazan's moves to get the stone onto the switch, then enter the
transporter to 2 chests.

Go back to the 2nd intersection, and head right. Then go Far south for a chest.
Go back up, and continue NE. There's another rock here, use Deva to open the
passage, go through and get the Camping Kit and Spell of Fire.
Use Deva to go up the top path. Hop down and pick up the 2 chests you couldn't
reach on the left side of the area.
Run back around to the pillar and use Deva. This time follow the path north.

Push bottom rock rock up, then push the top rock down. Run up, jump across to
the teleporter to a room with 2 chests.
Hop down, leave the room and re-enter.
Push the center rock right, the bottom rock up, and jump across north.

Camp Site
It's a good idea to save.

Head north to the Teleporter.

Go left to a chest (along the top), then backtrack up right to the room by the
non-functional teleporter. Push the top crystal left, then up. Push the 2nd
crystal left, then up. Push the last crystal left. The transporter should work
now.

Head into the first door you see.
Push the right crystal left, then up. Break the rock with Galea. Push the
crystal up. Teleport. Get the 2 chests.

Exit the room, head far west, under the teleporter, over the fallen tiles.
(they fell when you passed by to get the chest.) Teleport.

Head right, jump over the crevice, pass the hole in the north wall. Keep
going to the doors on the right.

Puzzle:
This one took a while.
Shove the Bottom grey block to the left. (Bottom Left)
Shove the top crystal Right, and down, then left.
Next.
Shove the top grey block down one space.
Shove the bottom grey block to the far right.
Shove the bottom crystal right, then up.
Next.
Shove the top grey block to the top left spot.
Shove the middle crystal right, then up, then left.
Teleporter Activated. (go get 2 chests)

Go back to the hole in the wall.

Camp Site
SAVE NOW.

Head north.

BOSS (2)
Use Variable Arts whenever possible.
Equip protection from Spellbind and Venom.
Take out the tall one first... unless you have Anti-Spellbind items, or
you are in for a LONG and painful fight with normal attacks.

41,812gp
Black Bouquet x1
Photo of Marienne x1

Teleport (or go back and save/etc)
Grab the 2 chests south of the teleporter.

Follow the right path at the intersection, hop along to a chest.
(Both paths meet at the same north path, the right path has the chest)

Continue North, enter next area. Take the left path to a chest, then continue
north. Hop to the right, once you see the exit to the next area... follow that
path to a chest (Life Syringe)
Back to the main path to the next area.

CAMP SITE
SAVE

Next Area...
EVENT

BOSS
Part 1
Kill it quick. (1 Variable art, about 100k hp)
Event

Part 2
Kill off the arm first, then go after the main boss.
I suggest assigning one person to heal, and equip him/her with 2x item effect.
Bronze Baromes should fully restore your entire team easily with that.
Pull off Variable Arts as often as possible. (A couple Tireless Ribbons ;)
Unfortunetly, I didn't have a couple of those ribbons, so it was a hard boss.

If you see him do "Mad Howling," have everyone defend. He's about to use a
party hitting attack that does massive damage.

It was insanely hard to get any Variable Arts off on this guy, because he has
the tendency to use Volcano Storm every so often, killing off a character...
wiping out their AP.

Spoils:
50,000gp

Heal Powder
Heal Potion
Restore Potion
Magic Bottle
Bronze Barome
Spirit's Blessing
Resurrect Bottle
FlameBurst Scroll
Fruit of the Gods x1
Everlasting Lava

New Magic Circle - return to the entrance.



Return to Darek's Haunt and talk to Kenjiro.
Buy a couple poison cures, separate purchases, exit the shop dialog each time.
I only had to buy 2 25 gold items to open this. Never bought anything else
from Kenjiro.
With each purchase, you have the chance that he'll reveal the location of

"The Secret Market"

Sharon can learn "Sick Shroom Soup" from Kenjiro if you have a Creepy Mushroom.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Return to Jinga
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

New Map Spot (can't reach it yet)

Go to Darakin, talk to Joe.

Visit the new map spot.

*******************************************************************************
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$  MONEY TRICK  $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*******************************************************************************

Go to the Secret Shop, Buy 99 Earth Dragon Wings for 12,000gp each from the
Expensive Materials list from the far right merchant.

Go to Jinga. In the Top Left house, TRADE the Wings for Sun Faulds.

Go back to the Secret Market and sell the Sun Faulds for 32,500gp each.

Repeat until you're satisfied.

Now, a trick not on any message boards:
Levelup without fighting.
Ok, not exactly leveling up, but has the same effect.
Go back to Darakin Citidel.
Go to the Junk Shop. Talk to the owner and cancel out repeatedly until he
randomly offers you the "Incredible Grab Bag" for 20,000gp.
These occasionally contain Leaf of "stat" items.

Now, don't use those leaves yet. You can combine them EASILY into FRUITS.

Combine Tools:
Leaf of "stat" -> Fruit of "stat"
Wenit Holy Water, Demarn Amber, and Gelatin Oil

Fruit of "stat" -> Fruit of the Gods:
Regrude Crystal, Yumyl God Water, and Miraculous Vaunusk

Buy at the Secret Market:
Demarn Amber - 900 (also in Yuno)
Gelatin Oil - 1,600
Regrude Crystal - 8,000
Miraculous Vaunusk - 40,800

Buy at Tanza or Darakin:
Wenit Holy Water - 500

You can't get Yumyl God Water at this point, but you don't really need it.

Create a bunch of Fruits of "stats"
(Fruit of the Gods only raises stats, not HP or MP, so make HP and MP fruit.)

Now's a great time to build up some Accessories from the secret market, and
supercharge your characters before heading to Phorchoon for the required
battle. Having one Tireless Ribbon is very nice, as is a Power Necklace.

At least buy an Extract Badge (No Encounters), and Holy Badge (Item Grabber).
If you didn't make them earlier.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PHORCHOON

Beefcake (giant - around 40k hp)
Dark Executioner (flying skeleton - around 40k hp)

Grab the chest to the far left, then go up the stairs.

Doesn't matter which path you take, they both curve around to the same
destination far up and around the tower at a teleporter.

(Now's a GREAT time to gather Yumyl God Water to make your Fruit of the Gods)

Go right, then punch down the pillar to go up to get 3 chests above.
Go back and then west and hop over left to the chest.

Hop back, then head north and around to the floating platform. Use a thunder
bolt to activate the switch, then "move it". Head north to the teleporter.

Another curving staircase up the tower. There's a
Camp Site
on the first level up.
On the LEFT curve, there's a chest with armor in it.

Two teleporters here. The RED one leads back to the start. Continue in the
white teleporter.

North we go... punch the pillar, teleport again, head to the floating
platform again. Activate the switch and "move it" again.

Hit the bottom switch and then go back to the platform and use lightning
to activate the switch.
Don't "Move it" Yet.

Run south from there, to another pillar, punch it over, run up to the
first teleporter, back to the thunder switch. Trigger it, to close the
wind doors. Now run all the way back to the floating platform and ride it
over to the area with 2 chests. Fruit of Mysticism and Stamina.

Now go through the red teleporter. (resets the puzzle room)

Trigger the first thunder switch, "Move it"...
You'll be in the center of the room with a white and red teleporter. Take
the white teleporter to the north stairs.

Another circling staircase. A chest on the middle of the first level.

CAMP SITE
SAVE
Right before the teleporter.

BOSS
After he uses Ultimate Fang, use your new Hyper Art, and it'll get rid of
his madness (this slows him down, otherwise you're dead)
Hope he now uses Destruction Blade (it hurts the entire team for around
700, but this is much better than his 2000+hyper art damages)

Random Encounters can now be met here.
I suggest collecting materials here, using No-Encounter + Item Grabber.

Go North to the descending platform.
Head South... and outside.
Follow the outside path down to a chest, then enter again.
Head north... climb up.
Go west to a chest containing a Heaven's Secret.
Go back east to an elevator to descend.

CAMP SITE

Head east, and follow the right branch to a chest. Go back and north and
follow the curving path along until the branch. Go right to a cave.

BOSS
Pretty easy... One Variable art 136k damage took it out.
It didn't get to attack.
Spoils:
30,000 gold
Heal Leaf
Lord Crystal

After battle: Get Divine BlueIce Gem

Go further south, pass the branch, go outside, get the chest.
Go back up to the branch, and descend.

Follow the path to the cross-roads.
East leads to a descending platform - CAMPSITE
Two chests east of the campsite: Earth's Teachings and a Heaven's Gate.
Go back up... North to a cave.

BOSS
Pretty easy... One Variable art 136k damage took it out.
It didn't get to attack.
Spoils:
30,000 gold
Heal Leaf

After battle: Get Divine Scarlet Gem

Go South, outside, and then inside...
At the crossroads, go west to 2 chests - one has a Heaven's Secret.

The North path branches off 2 to lowering platforms.
The first descending platform leads to a dead end.
Heading into the cave is another:

BOSS
Same as the others.
30,000 gold
Lord Crystal

After battle: Get Divine Gem of Dawn

The second platform (near the cave) leads to a long branching path.
South leads outside, then inside. 2 Chests. Smash rock, use Ayne for 3rd chest.
North to a descending platform. - CAMP SITE

I suggest resting (if you've actually been hurt - I hope not ;)
If you've got an Extract Badge, this place is easy. To simplify matters, equip
the badge on someone who's not in your fighting team. Then just switch your
fully equipped fighter out for the no-encounter person, and vice-versa for
bosses.
