[I] UPDATES

06.19.04 - Final - This FAQ has become obsolete thanks to the completion of an
HTML version found at
http://www.crunkgames.com/therest/psfaq/
Please visit the above URL for the finished guide and please stop
emailing! Much love!
06.15.03 - v2.0 - The FAQ has been given a monstrous overhaul in structure and
style. A lot of the text has been edited as the result of it being
fantastically stupid and unfunny. The game came out for the GBA
during my year off from the FAQ and I've fallen in love with it
all over again. I've completed the Corona Tower and the FAQ is
approaching the home stretch.
04.12.02 - v1.6 - Wow. It's been a *long* time... I redid the entire
mapping system, as my previous method led to strange
inconsistencies and just plain weirdness. The new system makes
use of a coordinate system, as well as more defined spaces.
Naula Cave has been mapped in its entirety, with the Cave South
of Scion already underway. The experience tables have also been
buffed up a bit. Can't wait for this game to hit the GBA :)
02.20.01 - v1.5 - Added the Magic tables (VI.A and VI.B) as well as
experience tables for three of the game's four characters
(Section VII). The levels in these tables are somewhat low, as
I am replaying the game from the beginning to collect this data.
09.07.00 - v1.4 - Wow, it's been a while. A while as in, say, seven months.
But I'm back on track with this killer FAQ (I rhymed!) and plan
on putting in a lot more work in the future. This time we've got
a list of all the spells (section VI), an expanded Beastiary, as
well as two new sections of the walkthrough (IV.C.2 and IV.C.3)
to take you up to Naula Cave.
02.07.00 - v1.3 - I took a day off from school to supply you with the new
Equipment section. Oh, and I was sick. Booyaka!
02.06.00 - v1.2 - Wondering how to recruit that cat-like thing with the
long ears and the obligatory axe-wielding musclehead? Wonder no
more, friends.
02.05.00 - v1.1 - Added the walkthrough for Camineet, as well as the
surrounding areas. And hey, this thing might even be online
today. Woo.
02.02.00 - v1.0 - Started the damn thing. Joy. Don't expect to get too far
into the game with this FAQ... Despite its name, it only covers
the basics of the game... so far. Just wait a while, I'll have
the whole thing done someday. Don't say I never gave anything to
humanity.
=================
[II] INTRODUCTION
=================
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
[II.A] Intro to Phantasy Star
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Wildly popular in its day and having recently been rereleased on the
Game Boy Advance, Phantasy Star is an 8-bit RPG that originally debuted on
Sega's Master System in 1988 to top sales and reviews. The game was
ridiculously advanced for its time, sporting big, brightly animated monsters,
a respectable list of equipment and spells, and unique 1st person "3D"
dungeons. The crux of the game's storyline rests on a girl named Alis who
vows to kill the corrupt ruler of the Algol SOlar System, Lassic, after her
brother Nero is struck down by Lassic's guards.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
[II.B] Availability
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Naturally, the game is no longer in production for the archaic Master
System, although you can track down a copy on eBay if you're willing to pay
$30-$50 for it. A pretty good deal, considering that's about half of what it
was originally sold for.
Fortunately, the game now appears in Phantasy Star Collection (along
with Phantasy Star II and III) on the Game Boy Advance. The version here is
identical save for a few extremely minor differences:
1. Left button (in this case B) no longer cancels.
2. 3 save slots instead of 5.
3. Cut-scene text is now centered.
4. Dungeon travel is slightly slower.
5. Saving glitch - very rarely, the game will crash as you save.
6. Extremely minor graphical glitches when running from some enemies.
Since these differences make virtually no difference in the game, this
FAQ can be used for both versions.
====================
[III] PLAY MECHANICS
====================
-=-=-=-=-=-=-
[III.A] Menus
-=-=-=-=-=-=-
--------------------
[III.A.1] Non-battle
--------------------
From just about any screen in the game, pressing button 1 or 2 will
call up the main menu. And looky-do, it's here for you.
____
|STAS| - See the stats and experience points of a character.
|MAGC| - Cast any curative magic spell.
|ITEM| - Manage items in your inventory.
|SRCH| - Examine the immediate area (rarely used).
|SAVE| - Record your progress anywhere.
----
These commands are self-explanatory, although the ITEM menu has a
few submenus. When an item is selected with button 2, three new commands pop
up. The USE command will activate the selected item. The EQP command is
used only for weapons and armor, and also asks which character to equip
the selected piece on. Finally, the handy DRP command lets you ditch
excess baggage such as the plethora of Flashes that accumulate in your
inventory after just a few bouts with Vampires and Sphinxes.
The only time you'll want to use the SRCH command is when you need to
locate a hidden item or accidentally decide to turn down opening an enemy's
treasure chest. If you do turn it down, the game just leaves in front of you.
If you still want it, just use the SRCH command to bring up the question again.
If you don't want it, hit button 1 and walk away.
----------------
[III.A.2] Battle
----------------
____
|ATTK| - Attack a random enemy.
|MAGC| - Cast a battle spell.
|ITEM| - Use an item to heal, escape, or talk to the enemy.
|TALK| - Talk to the few enemies in the game that understand English.
|RUN | - Lets you turn tail and moves you back one step.
----
These commands are also quite simple... The only thing worth
mentioning is that the RUN command is rendered ineffective if you've hit a
dead-end and encounter an enemy after rotating in place. To avoid this, take a
step backwards after walking into a dead end, then rotate. The TALK command
is rarely used, and gives the enemy a free round if you attempt to talk to
a monster that cannot speak.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
[III.B] Finding your way
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
----------------------------------
[III.B.1] Navigating through Algol
----------------------------------
Navigation in the world of Phantasy Star can be either simple or
a bit difficult, depending. The simple areas are the ones that allow you to
control Alis and party via a simple standard 8/16-bit view, with all four
members of the party all lined up. This is employed only on the world map
and in towns. The second view, 1st person, is used in caves, dungeons, and
towers. This can be confusing for several reasons... First of all, until you
obtain the compass, you have no idea in which direction you're walking.
Fortunately, maps are provided in this FAQ for all of the caves, dungeons, and
towers.
Another major stumbling block in the world of the intrepid catacomb-
lurker is the pitfall. These traps are seemingly randomly placed, and can
make certain areas absolutely hellish without a map. For your convenience,
pitfalls and other traps are labeled on the maps. Other traps include
trapped treasure chests, containing either a spear trap (damages a random
party member) or exploding traps (damages the entire party). If you don't have
this FAQ handy, use Myau's TRAP spell to spot and disarm any potential traps
you might find while exploring the dungeons.
A few caves (like the cave to the GOvernor's mansion or the tunnel
to Gothic) have been omitted because they're simple, one-path areas. I trust
you guys are smart enought to find your way through a cave with no turns.
----------------------------
[III.B.2] How to use the map
----------------------------
In this FAQ, a map is included for each dungeon, along with the
enemies and treasure located therein. Below is a brief key explaining the
symbols used in these maps.
[ ] = one space
[@] = door
[%] = locked door
[&] = door sealed by magic
[#] = pitfall
[x] = pitfall landing
[f] = both pitfall and pitfall landing
[*] = treasure or event, listed by coordinates under map
[e] = entrance
[E] = exit (where applicable)
[u] = stairs going up (with corresponding numbers if necessary)
[d] = stairs going down
Upon entering a cave, dungeon, or tower (referred to hereafter
simply as "dungeons"), you will be facing one of the cardinal directions.
Here's a quick review!
N
|
W--*--E
|
S
The compass is your best friend in Phantasy Star. After recruiting
Odin, the compass is yours and can be activated at any time out of battle by
selecting and using it from your inventory. By using it in a dungeon, you can
see which direction you're currently facing, which can be extremely helpful
if you've lost your way on the map. The compass will help you get right back
on course. Note that not all dungeons start you out facing north; the maps in
this FAQ appear as they would in the game. The compass rose above applies to
every map I've made.
Because of the 1st person POV, mapping events in the dungeons was a
bit of trouble. However, if you see this...
1 [ ][ ][ ][*]
2 [ ]
A B C D
...It means that you will see the event or chest that appears at D1
when you have stepped on square C1. In the game, it will appear that the event
or chest is in *front* of you, one space ahead. Be aware that if something is
marked on a square, you will have to deal with it one space ahead and not
necessarily on the marked square.
Also, note that since every dungeon mapped herein makes use of a
coordinate system, finding out where a pitfall or a set of stairs leads is
simply a matter of finding the same coordinates on the next floor of the
dungeon. If you fall through a trap on space G14 of a tower's top floor,
you'll land on space G14 of the floor below. Both locations will be indicated
on the maps with # and x, respectively.
---------------
[III.B.3] Items
---------------
Phantasy has a decent array of items, although the majority of the non
plot-related ones are pretty worthless. Items preceded by an asterisk are
important to the plot or otherwise required.
*Aeroprism: When held aloft on the top floor of the Tower of Baya Malay, the
prism will reveal Lassic's Sky Castle. Found inside the Ice Dungeon
on Dezoris.
*Alsulin: Used to return Odin to normal. Found in the bottle hanging from
Myau's neck once he joins.
*Amber Eye: A precious gem found in the forehead of the dragon that lives in
the Casba Cave. Traded to a Dezorian in the Corona Tower for the
Eclipse Torch.
Burger: Heals 40 HP. Sold in First Food Stores.
Cola: Heals 10 HP. Sold in First Food Stores.
*Compass: When used out of battle, the compass will tell you which way the
party is currently facing. Also allows the party to navigate the
Eppi Forest.
*Crystal: Used in battle to weaken Lassic. Acquired from Damon the Soothsayer
in the Tower of Baya Malay.
*Dungeon Key: Used to unlock dungeon doors. Can be found in the Camineet
Warehouse after speaking with the old man in Eppi. Unlimited use.
*Eclipse Torch: A ceremonial torch held sacred by the Dezorians. Used in
front of the Tree of Laerma to obtain the Nut of Laerma. Obtained by
trading the Amber Eye to a Dezorian atop Corona Tower.
Escaper: Same effect as Alis' Bye spell; allows you to flee combat with a
100% success rate.
Flash: Illuminates the dungeon and allows the party to proceed. Necessary
only until the Magic Lamp is purchased. Available in any town.
Flute: When used in combat, the flute has a chance of putting enemies to
sleep. Out of battle, it will transport the party to the outside of
any dungeon you may be in. Found in Gothic after talking to a man in
Uzo. Unlimited use.
*Gas Shield: Allows the party to cross the gas field surrounding the town of
Sopia. Purchased in Drasgow.
*Hapsby: A robot constructed of pure Laconium. Will pilot the Luveno once you
find him.
*Hovercraft: A vehicle used to travel over Palma and Motavia's bodies of water.
Can be found in an abandoned house in Bortevo after talking to a man
in Casba.
*Ice Digger: Used to plow through soft ice mountains on Dezoris. Purchased in
Twintown.
*Laconian Pot: Two of these exist. The first is obtained in Camineet by
talking to Nero's friend Nekise and is used to trade for Myau. The
second is acquired after defeating Dr. Mad and is used to store the
Nut of Laerma.
*Landrover: Vehicle used to travel across the Ant Lions of Motavia. Purchased
in Casba.
Magic Hat: Same effect as Alis' Chat spell; allows you to converse with some
monsters.
Magic Lamp: Same effect as Flash, only its use is automatic and unlimited.
Miracle Key: Same effect as Noah's Open spell; can unlock doors sealed by
magic as well as basic dungeon locks. Found in the Tower of Baya Malay.
Unlimited use.
*Nut of Laerma: A rare nut from the Tree of Laerma on Dezoris. Must be fed to
Myau at the top of the Tower of Baya Malay to reach Lassic's Sky
Castle.
*Passport: Allows free access between Palma and Motavia via the Palman
spaceport, where it is purchased after passing a brief exam.
*Polymeteral: Used to dissolve the garbage surrounding Hapsby in Bortevo.
Can be purchased at the Food store in Abion.
*Roadpass: Allows access to the Palman spaceport. Purchased from the shopkeeper
in Scion after you attempt to buy "Secrets" three times.
Sphere: Same effect as Noah's Talk spell; allows communication with more
advanced monsters.
Transfer: Same effect as Alis' Fly spell; warps you back to the last church
you visited. Not useable in dungeons.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
[III.C] Battles
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Phantasy Star was way ahead of its time as far as battles go. Enemies
can not only fill up a sizable portion of the screen, but even sport attack
animations; fairly good ones at that.
Random encounters occur very erratically in PS. Sometimes you'll be
plagued by battles every other step, and sometimes whole floors can be
traversed without incident. When you encounter an enemy, the battle menu will
pop up, as well as the names and HP of your party members and the enemy.
Phantasy Star may have the neato-keeno battle animations, but it only allows
one enemy sprite onscreen. To signify multiple enemies, multiple rows of enemy
HP will appear, all with the same number to start. Choosing the ATTK command
will force the character to hit a random enemy. This can be very troublesome
when formulating a strategy, which is why most boss fights are actually quite
simple; you've just got one target.
There is a special breed of weapons available, the guns, that allow
ALL of the enemies to be hit for precisely the same amount of damage. The
degree of damage varies from gun to gun, but they can be very useful sometimes.
Guns are only usable by Odin.
Perhaps the biggest indicator of Phantasy Star's ahead-of-its-time
play mechanics is the leveling of enemies along with the party. While enemies'
HP maximums will stay constant throughout the game, their ATK and DEF stats
will rise accordingly, allowing even the weaker enemies to inflict medium
damage on a fully equipped level 30 party.
The number of enemies that can be encountered in a given battle will
never exceed 8, and can be calculated at any point in the game by taking the
total number of party members and multiplying by two. So as Alis begins her
adventure, she will only encounter Sworms and Scorpions by the 2's; by the
time Noah makes the roster, enemies may strike in groups of 8. Stronger
enemies will only appear in 6's and 4's, while the strongest of the bunch
only attack 1 or 2 at a time.
After you've sent your opponent back to the murky depths, you will be
treated to a treasure chest. The amount of meseta (the universal currency of
the Algo Solar System) and experience that are earned can be found in the
beastiary. Multiply these numbers by the number of enemies encountered to
calculate your earned exp. and meseta.
Also, beware of trapped chests; the game is brutal about booby-trapping
chests dropped by enemies or found in dungeons. If you've already obtained
the maximum 65535 meseta, simply choose not to open the chest. If you're an
emulating bastard (which I became to write this), you can make use of your
emulator's save/load state functions to see which chests are trapped and
avoid them.
====================
[IV] THE WALKTHROUGH
====================
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
[IV.A] Alis sets out
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
-----------------------------
[IV.A.1] Camineet and Parolit
-----------------------------
After the riveting intro, Alis finds herself in front of her home, a
cozy little yellow dome with one room. The first thing you should do is
wander up into the little cave to your right (the "warehouse") to fetch some
cash and get a feel for the 1st person POV of the dungeons.
-------------------------
[IV.A.1.a] Map: Warehouse

5 [ ] [ ]
4 [ ] [ ]

1 [*][ ][@][ ][ ][ ] e
A B C D E F G H
*A1 - 50 mesetas
*A6 - Dugn. Key (unavailable at start, must activate plot flag)
Enemies - none
This is a very straightforward dungeon. Don't worry about random
encounters, this place is enemy-free. Just grab the 50 mesetas and return to
the outside to gear up with your newfound dough.
--------------------
[IV.A.1.b] New items
--------------------
Once you've made it back outside, head on over to the Armory (shop
on the far left of the trio of shops) and purchase the Leather Shield (DEF+3)
for Alis.
***CAMINEET***
___________________ _______________ ______________
| Establishment | Wares | Price(s) |
|-------------------|---------------|--------------|
| Suelo's house | Full recovery | 0 |
|-------------------|---------------|--------------|

| | Burger | 40 |
|-------------------|---------------|--------------|
| | Flash | 20 |
| Second-Hand Shop | Escaper | 10 |
| | Transfer | 48 |
--------------------------------------------------
Once you've done this, wander into the blue house in the northwest
part of town. Nekise, a man who knew your brother Nero, will give you a
Laconian Pot at no cost. He also tells you that the man named Odin resides
in the port town of Scion. The pot and information won't come into play
just yet, but it is important that you visit a woman called Suelo.
Suelo lives in the yellow house just below yours. Suelo makes the
game a bit easier by healing your entire party for free during the game.
You may return anytime you wish. Her method of restoration is much quicker
and cheaper than having to heal everyone individually at the hospitals.
Now that you're fit to cause a ruckus, go out the east exit. We need
to raise a bit of money to get the adventure going.
---------------------------
[IV.A.1.c] Outside The Wall
---------------------------
Upon reaching the outside world, you will see two other towns and a
big wall. Actually, the location in the upper left is a spaceport, accesible
only after you've purchased a roadpass (done in the port town of Scion
later). The lower area, Parolit, is a residential area like Camineet. You
can find some strong weapons here, but nothing very affordable right now.
If you like, head on in to check out the shops and speak with the residents.
***PAROLIT***

--------------------------------------------------
The wall surrounding these areas keeps the enemies out, with the
exception of the inhabitants of the small patch of woods on the southern
border. Here you can find Sworms (easy pickings) and Owl Bears (a wee bit
tougher). This is a good place to level up if you're up for the challenge of
the occasional Owl Bear, but if you want to fight a steady stream of Sworms,
leave the enclosed area and fight outside of the wall. You may encounter a
few Scorpions, which will pose a threat at low levels. When in doubt, run.
*New enemies*
_______________ ______ _________ __________ ________ _______
| Enemy | HP | Exp. | Meseta | Item | Speak |
|---------------|------|---------|----------|--------|-------|
| Sworm | 8 | 2 | 3 | None | No |
| Wing Eye | 11 | 2 | 6 | None | No |
| Scorpion | 12 | 4 | 13 | None | No |
| Maneater | 16 | 3 | 13 | None | No |
| Owl Bear | 18 | 5 | 12 | None | No |
| Deadtree | 23 | 4 | 21 | None | No |
------------------------------------------------------------
Other enemies in the area include Deadtrees to the west and Wingeyes
to the north. These enemies aren't too tough and provide adequate exp. and
meseta, but beware. It's a long hike out to their nests, and thanks to PS's
unpredictale and erratic formulae, anything can go wrong. Wait till you've
shot up a few levels before tackling them. It's also feasible to hunt the
Maneaters to the south near Medusa's Cave, but you run the risk of
encountering a stray Werebat or Skull-En, which is pretty much an assured
game over. In fact, your best bet at this point would be to wail on the
scorpions near the entrance to the wall. Assuming, of course, you've done
some leveling up already with the Sworms.
Your first job should be to level up and raise 75 mesetas for that
Iron Sword in Parolit. Keep in mind that you can return to Camineet at any
time for a free restoration by Suelo. Don't forget to save often. You'll
kick yourself if you earned 300 meseta from Scorpions and Owl Bears and fell
prey to an overzealous Sworm. Packing a few Colas for emergencies isn't a
bad idea. Just keep in mind that this is the slowest part of the game... It
all speeds up once you're able to knock out Owl Bears in only a hit or two.
------------------------------
[IV.A.2] Scion and the Secrets
------------------------------
------------------------
[IV.A.2.a] Touring Scion
------------------------
Scion is a port town to the east of Camineet, a welcome sight to
those accustomed to the mundanity of the residential areas within the wall.
If you're looking for some armor, Scion's the place.
***SCION***
___________________ _______________ ______________
| Establishment | Wares | Price(s) |
|-------------------|---------------|--------------|
| | Lth.Armr | 28 |
| Armory | Lgt.Suit | 290 |
| | Zir.Armr | 1000 |
|-------------------|---------------|--------------|
| | Flash | 20 |
| Second-Hand Shop | Transfer | 48 |
| | Secrets | 200 |
--------------------------------------------------
The Light Suit is better than the Leather Armor that Alis started
the game with, but nowhere near as good as the expensive Zirconium Armor. If
you have an extreme excess of mesetas (500+) pick up a Light Suit. If not,
don't worry, it can wait.
Things really get kooky at the Second-Hand Shop. Secrets? Huh? 200
mesetas seems to be a bit much for an unidentified item. Even so, an item like
this must be imperative to the game, and it is. If you can't afford them right
now, head back outside and earn the necessary cash.
---------------------------
[IV.A.2.b] Raising the cash
---------------------------
At this point, you should be more than strong enough to take out
groups of Owl Bears without a problem. Alis should have already learned the
Heal spell, as well as the occasionally useful Bye spell. The next goal here
will be to raise 300 mesetas to purchase the necessary legal accesories to
let Alis play space-traveller. 200 of those mesetas will go towards
"Secrets," while the other 100 will make them worthwhile.
-------------------
[IV.A.2.c] Haggling
-------------------
Any attempt to purchase the secrets from the disgruntled shopkeeper
in Scion will result in the his adamant refusal. On the third attempt,
however, the shopkeeper gives in, and the Roadpass is yours.
Take your newfound Roadpass and hike on over to either the west exit
of Camineet or the north exit of Parolit and talk to the guards. They will
bow to your new Roadpass and grant you access to the spaceport, where we'll
be spending that leftover 100 mesetas on a Passport.
-----------------------------
[IV.A.3] Acquiring a Passport
-----------------------------
You'll see a couple of shops at the north end of the platform; the
one on the left is a First Food Shop, while the other is a shop for acquiring
a Passport.

Remember the Laconian Pot that was given to you by Nekise back on

spaceport to the town of Paseo and stroll into the "shop" on the right.
You'll meet an odd guy who asks you if you'd pay 1 billion mesetas for the
rare animal he has. Say no, then choose yes when he asks to trade for your
Laconian Pot.
Your new friend, Myau, also comes with a gift: a bottle of Alsulin
that can turn the stoned (as in "turned to stone") Odin back to flesh and
blood. Odin's exact whereabouts are a bit hazy, so check out the other shops
in Paseo for now.

The first real cave of Phantasy Star is very straightforward and
should only take a few minutes. When you find Odin, select the Alsulin from
your ITEM menu and watch the drama unfold. Swing around the far corner,
grab the compass, and return to Camineet to heal up at Suelo's. You should
have enough for the Thick Fur after Medusa's Cave, so fly back to to Paseo
to purchase it.
------------------------
[IV.C.2] The Dungeon Key
------------------------
Alis and co. are now in possession of the compass, and with it, a
path to Eppi village. Make your way south from the wall and into the middle
of the forest you see there. Enter the village.

Eppi village is located in the center, and besides having some good
bits of information, it also has some good weapons and armor.

--------------------------------------------------
If you leave Eppi with only one new item in your possession, make
it the Needle Gun. You'll notice that the gun raises Odin's ATK, but this will
NOT be reflected in battle. The Needle Gun will always do 5 damage to every
enemy. Pick one up for Odin, at least until you have enough money for a
Ceramic Sword; the gun will allow Odin to do a decent amount of damage even
in the face of his pathetic starting stats. Hunt the Were-Bats of Eppi
forest until you can afford one, but watch out -- you'll probably only be
able to handle two at a time, maybe three if you enter at full strength and
use up all of Alis' Heal spells.
But the main reason for your trip to this backwater village is to
obtain a clue to finding the Dungeon Key. Speak with the old man in the
house with the gold dome. The "outskirts of Parolit" that he speaks of is
the warehouse where you obtained your first 50 mesetas. Once you trigger
this flag, the chest ~magically~ appears back home.
Head back to Camineet and enter the warehouse. Instead of making
that first left, continue straight and pick up the key in a chest at the
dead end. Now that you have the Dungeon Key you can plow through locked doors,
although magically-sealed doors will have to wait.
----------------------
[IV.C.3] The Shortcake
----------------------
Now would be a good time to set up an audience with the governer of
Paseo, but any attempts to do so will see you turned back by a robot demanding
a gift. A nearby citizen hints that the man has a weakness for sweets, meaning
we need to locate some sort of delicious tribute in order to meet with the
mayor.
This is where the challenge of the game starts to pick up. The cave
with the cake shop, Naula Cave, is four levels deep and houses a few tough
monsters. The actual floors aren't that big, but the cave's twists and turns
can pose a threat to players that lose their way. When in doubt, use your
compass and try to approximate your location on the map provided.
Make sure that you enter Naula Cave with 500 mesetas or more. It seems
that the economy of the Algol system puts a high price on baked goods -- it'll
run you 1000 mesetas for a Shortcake, half of which you should be able to make
en route.
To reach the cave, exit Camineet and follow the wall north until you
see the shoreline, then follow that north to the cave's entrance.

[IV.D] The Governor and Noah

-------------------------------
[IV.D.1] Meet with the Governor
-------------------------------
Enter the cave in the middle of town and give the Shortcake to the
robot. He'll let you pass through. You will surface on an island in the
center of town containing the Governor's mansion and a free inn. Enter the
mansion and speak with the Governor -- he'll give you a letter of introduction
that we'll later give to Noah to recruit him (her?). For now, he offers you
a stay in the mansion.
But it's not the best night's sleep, as the party is instantly plunged
into battle with an ugly disembodied head called Saccubus.

Don't worry about trying to stay alive, because Saccubus will romp
on you pretty hard. It's not worth expending the resources trying to defeat
him; your reward is a measly 10 exp. Regardless of who wins, the party
awakens from the nightmare and sent on their way -- be sure to pop into
the free inn before leaving.
-----------------------------
[IV.D.2] Completing the party
-----------------------------
Once everyone's healed up and you've saved your game, exit Paseo via
the north exit and walk a few steps west, then up and east to circumnavigate
the Antlions' nests -- stepping on those big brown circles will throw you into
battle with one of them. Don't worry if you accidently hit one, they're not
lethal at the levels you should be at.
Follow the nests east until you see an opening in the mountains to the
north. Walk up and head west into the mountain path, which is a winding one-
way road to Maharu Cave, where our good friend Noah lives. Before entering,
it's a good idea to purchase a Ceramic Sword and Iron Shield for Alis (and
one for Odin too if you've got the bling) as well as the Thick Fur for Myau.

Noah will turn you away unless you have the letter from the Governor,

Noah's instructions, let's do a small side quest and win a weapon for Myau.
Return to Palma and prepare to do some shopping.
Note: Okay, so the Governor of Paseo refers to Noah as a "she," I still think
it's a dude, and that's how this FAQ will refer to him... her... Noah.

--------------------
[IV.E.1] What to buy
--------------------
To conquer the Cave South of Scion, it is strongly recommended that
you purchase the following things: (the TRULY ambitious can outfit Alis and
Odin with the 15,000 meseta Diamond Armor sold in Paseo, the best armor
available to her in the game). Some of this you should already have from
before the Maharu Cave, but if you don't, make sure to buy everything now.
Poor Noah has very little equipment in the game, so no upgrades for him are
available just yet, save for the Short Sword you found in Naula Cave. If you
sold it, pick up another in Paseo on the cheap. It's only one point
stronger than the Wooden Cane, but every little bit helps.
In order of importance:
- Thick Fur for Myau (cost: 630, DEF+30; In Paseo)
- Ceramic Sword for Alis (cost: 1220, ATK+31; In Parolit)
- Ceramic Sword for Odin (cost: 1220, ATK+31; In Parolit)
- Zirconium Armor for Odin (cost: 1000, DEF+30; In Scion)
- Ceramic Shield for Odin (cost: 1400, DEF+23; In Camineet)
- Ceramic Shield for Alis (cost: 1400, DEF+23; In Camineet)
- Light Suit for Alis (cost: 290, DEF+15; In Scion)
- Magic Lamp (cost: 1400, acts as reusable Flash; in Parolit,
this thing lasts the whole game, buy it!)
- Short Sword for Noah (cost: 30, ATK+4; In Paseo)
The fastest way to accumulate this cash is to fight the
Were-Bats that roam Eppi forest. One battle with four of the bats will
yield 44 Exp. and 252 mesetas. Don't waste your time with the Fishmen that
hang around by the beaches; they give the same amount of experience as
Were-Bats, but not nearly as much money. On top of that, they're harder to
kill. Pass. If you think your party is advanced enough, you might also
want to try hunting Barbarians on Motavia, en route to the Maharu Cave; a
battle with 8 of the little guys will net you a hefty 712 mesetas.
As you might've guessed, the cave is located south of Scion, on the
eastern peninsula jutting out into the sea. It's loaded with enemies, traps,
and treasure, so come ready to fight.

It's not a bad idea to fall down all the traps on purpose for the

some decent damage now.
Don't worry if you don't grab every treasure, just make sure you kill
the Skeleton on B3 and grab the Iron Fang. Heal at Suelo's and head to the
spaceport. Head all the way to the left, past the guards, and down into the
path leading to what looks like a wooden manhole cover. Noah must keep a
crowbar or something under that cloak, because once he's in your party the
tunnel is accessible. Head through (the left turn leads to an antisocial
man with no good advice) and come out into the Village of Gothic. You may
encounter some Wing Eyes or Green Slimes in the cave, but they're easy
pickings.

Gothic is a quaint little town with one shop, a church, a hospital,
and homeless guys littered about. A couple of them will ask you for Cola in
exchange for information, but I've transcribed their comments below for the
beverage-less.
Bum #1: "Don't go near the tower at the far end of the narrow road which goes
from the gothic forest through the mountains. A magic beast lives
there. Look at it and ya turn to stone."
Bum #2: "Thanks! This was once the lab of Dr. Luveno. He went bonkers, though
and be imprisoned in Triada to the south of here."
Our first homeless friend refers here to Medusa's Tower, which we
will tackle much later on to acquire Odin's best weapon. For now, though,
we're going to follow the lead that Bum #2 gives us and attempt to track down
this Dr. Luveno. The good doctor is our ticket to unrestricted interplanetary
travel, so finding him is a top priority. Definitely pick up the Magic Lamp
at the second-hand shop if you haven't bought yours yet (just one will last
for the rest of the game) and exit Gothic to the east (the bum on the western
end turns you away for now).
--------------------------
[IV.F.2] Liberating Luveno
--------------------------
Head south, directly between the coastline and the mountains and take
the first left you see. Follow the path all the way to Triada Prison and go
inside. Don't worry about battles, there are no random encounters and only
two enemies in the prison. If you do the right things you can avoid them
entirely.

*L10 - Fight w/Skeleton
Don't worry about talking to all those prisoners, the only one you
absolutely need to see is Dr. Luveno in the cell on space H7. Once he turns
you away, reenter twice to finally convince him that you're serious. He heads
back to Gothic, and we should too.
-----------------------
[IV.F.3] Ship and Pilot
-----------------------
There is a pair of adjacent houses in Gothic (the two in good
condition); you'll find Luveno in the one on the left. He tells you that his
assistant is missing, probably still in the underground passageway. Head into
the tunnel via the destroyed dwelling in the upper right and take the first
(and only) right you see. Talk to the uppity young man in the room and he'll
agree to help the Doctor build your spaceship.
Back at Gothic, Luveno tells you that he requires a fee of 1200
mesetas, which you should have already built up. Give the Doctor his cash
and pop in on the assistant if you like (he turns right back into a jerk),
then reenter the Doc's house two or three more times until he tells you that
your new ship (The Luveno!) is completed. But d'oh, he points out that you
don't know how to fly a ship, that you need to find a robot names Hapsby
(which you may remember one of the prisoners in Triada mumbling about). Exit
Gothic again in search of Hapsby.

Head south and follow the coastline, this time all the way around
the mountains until you see a bubbling brown field of goo. Trudge through it
(it'll drain 2HP each step; it should only take 16 steps to get through to
the northwest side) and into the abandoned town of Bortevo.
Bortevo has only one citizen, but he gives you the only clue you need:
there's a usable robot hidden in one of the houses. The only problem is that
it's buried under mounds of junk, meaning we're stuck for now. Exit Bortevo
and enter the nearby tunnel which will take us across the water to a couple
of new towns.

be aware that the strongest gun in the game will be available very soon, and
money's going to be tight. Heal up at the hospital (use up all your curative
magic first to save cash). Exit Loar and head north past the mountains and
then all the way west to the town of Abion.

There are three things in Abion that you must leave with, two of
which can be purchased. We'll need the Polymeteral from the First Food Shop
in order to find Hapsby, and we also need the Laser Shield from the Armory for
Noah; it's the only shield he can equip, so it's going to last him till the
end. It's only essential for you to pick one up for Noah at this point, but if
you have enough for more, get some for Alis and Odin.
The third item will require you to get your hands a little dirty. A
crazy doctor lives on an island in the middle of town, and this doctor is in
possession of a Laconian Pot (like the one we used to trade for Myau) which
we'll need later on to acquire a key item.
Enter the path just to the left of the entrance and follow it into
the cave that leads to the island in the middle of Abion. There are no enemies
in the cave, so feel free to grab the treasure if you like.

be killed on the spot and you'll be thrust into battle without him.

------------------------------------------------------------
It's a tough fight, as Dr. Mad's, uh, stomach-cannon can do as much as
100 points of damage to any character every turn. Myau should Cure anyone
who gets hit while Alis and Odin pummel away. Noah should have the Wind spell,
so be sure to cast it every turn. Don't be discouraged if you die a few times,
this guy is really tough. It might be wise to buy Laser Shields for Alis and
Odin, but it's not necessary; I managed to beat him without them (and lots of
Curing).Once he's down, grab your new Laconian Pot and head back through the
tunnel. Double check to make sure that you bought the Polymeteral and at least
one Laser Shield and backtrack back to Bortevo; it's quicker if you cast Alis'
Fly spell (assuming the last church you visited was in Camineet) and walk
back.
Once back in Bortevo, go into the only house with a door (a blue
door, to be exact) and select the Polymeteral from your inventory. The pile
of garbage will dissolve, and the hardheaded Hapsby emerges. Take Hapsby and
head back to Gothic. After meeting with Dr. Luveno and showing him your
latest acquisition, the bum on the west side of town will let you pass
through to where your ship is.

[IV.G] Bulking up redux
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Now that we have access to all three planets, it's a good time to
begin hunting for some better equipment. Out of the following list, the top
two items are strongly recommended; splurge on the rest only if you've got the
the money or the desire to earn it.
In order of importance:
- Laser Gun for Odin (cost: 4120, ATK+50; In Skure)
- Gloves for Myau (cost: 3300, DEF+40; In Skure)
- Light Saber for Alis (cost: 2980, ATK+46; In Uzo)
- Laser Shield for Alis (cost: 4800, DEF+30; In Abion)
- Wand for Noah* (cost: 1200, ATK+10; In Skure)
*NOTE: While crappy as a weapon, the wand really comes in handy as an item in
battle. It might not have any offensive power, but it acts as an
Escaper (100% escape rate) as long as you use it from your inventory.
In short, the Wand is to the Escaper what the Magic Lamp is to the
Flash. Pick one up for emergencies, and pick up a second if you have
any leftover cash (not likely, I know). You'll definitely want to buy
a wand at some point, but I'll let you know when you'll absolutely
need it (Noah has a one-on-one fight coming up, if you're curious).
----------------
[IV.G.1] Dezoris
----------------
Approach the Luveno and Hapsby will ask you for your destination;
we obviously can't go to Gothic since we're already there, and we don't want
to go to Uzo on Motavia just yet, so select Skure from the list so that
we can finally visit the third and final planet of the Algol Solar System
(and pick up Noah's best weapon).
After you land, enter the cave nearby and follow the path to the end.
Note that the Evilheads give a buttload of money; it might be a good idea to
hang around and knock a few down.

Wand at the bottom of the list. If you want some variation, feel free to head
aboveground and try your hand at some of the native monsters on the surface
of Dezoris (much like the Evilheads, the Dezorians are loaded). You'll notice
that the Second-Hand Shop sells Spheres; these allow you to communicate with
some monsters but is more powerful than Alis' Chat spell (and equal to Noah's
Tele), but still pretty much useless. Let's go outside.

Be sure to purchase the Laser Gun the second you can afford it; it
will help tremendously with raising any more cash you might need. Don't
forget that Noah can cast Cure out of battle! For this reason it's also
practical to keep his in-battle casting to a minimum. After you've purchased
everything necessary in Skure, head back to the Luveno and tell Hapsby that
you'd like to visit Uzo.
--------------------------
[IV.G.2] Motavia revisited
--------------------------
All we really need from Uzo is a Light Saber for Alis if you want and
some choice bits of information from the citizens; they say that there is a
town called Casba to the south and that the dragons that live in the cave have
giant gems in their heads. Worth checking out!

in cacti (don't ask me why). Head left until you reach a lake with cave on its
underside. This is the aforementioned Casba cave, which holds a key item and
is the only way to Casba Village.

A decently difficult boss. Have the fighters hack away while Noah
casts Wind and it should be over soon. You can pick up a bit of information
and simultaneously flee the battle with Noah's Tele spell; the dragon tells
you that "a nut of Laerma needs special light to grow." Something important
to remember for later. Slay the dragon, grab the Amber Eye, and continue on
to Casba.

| Second-Hand Shop | Landrovr | 5200 |
--------------------------------------------------
There are two very important things to do here:
1) Purchase the Landrover from the Second-Hand Shop on the right. This six-
wheeled behemoth allows us to travel over the Ant Lions' nests and access the
entire land surface of Motavia. If you don't have the 5200 mesetas, hunt
around inside the Casba Cave until you do.
2) Just above the pair of Second-Hand Shops is a pair of houses. Enter the one
on the right and speak with the man inside. He will ask you if you've ever
heard of the Hovercraft; tell him Yes and he'll explain that he bought one
in Scion and abandoned it in Bortevo. The guy sets off a flag, so you've got
no choice.
---------------------------------
[IV.G.3] The Flute and Gas Shield
---------------------------------
Once you've done those two things, return to Uzo and enter the house
next to the church. Answer No when the man asks if you've heard of the Magic
Flute, and he'll tell you that he buried one in the outskirts of Gothic
Village (what is it with Motavians ditching all their junk on Palma?!). Fly
back to Gothic and search in front of the tree in the cul-de-sac in the
southwest corner of town. This Flute will come in handy -- using it in battle
may put some enemies to sleep, but the real kicker is that using it out of
battle will warp the party outside the current dungeon. Extremely handy.
Flute in hand, Leave Gothic through the east exit and head south and
around the mountains, through the marsh to Bortevo (you can try out your now
Landrover if you like, it's faster than walking). Upon entering Bortevo, walk
into the house nearest to you and use the Search command to uncover the
Hovercraft. Hapsby restores it to working order, giving you unrestricted access
to most of Palma and Motavia. Like the Landrover, the Hovercraft must be
selected from the item menu, but only when the party is standing adjacent to a
body of water. The only new enemy you might run into is the Wyvern, a
variation on the Serpent.

Once in the water, head directly west and take note of the tower
sitting on a nearby island; Remember this location, but continue west for now
until you see the Cave South of Scion. Curve underneath the peninsula and head
directly south until you see a town floating on the ocean. Disembark the
Hovercraft (same way you embarked) and enter the town of Drasgow with at
least 1000 mesetas (knock around a few Were-Bats in the nearby Eppi Forest if
you need a little more).
The town doesn't have any shops, save for one merchant hidden in a
cave. The man sells a key item that will enable you to earn both Odin's best
weapon and best shield in the game. There are no enemies in this merchant's
cave, so don't worry about being prepared for battle.

Head east across the desert until you hit the mountains, then go north and
follow the coast to a green field. These are the gas fields of Sopia, and the
enemies that thrive within the gas are lethal. Be on guard for the Horsemen,
Reapers, and Sorcerers.

Not far into the field is the town of Sopia, an impoverished little
village with only a hospital and a few houses. Enter the house on the far left
of the second row of houses and pay the mayor 400 mesetas. He will tell you
that the very shield used by Perseus to slay Medusa is buried on an island in
the lake -- note that paying the old man 400 mesetas for his information is a
flag and must be done in order for the shield to appear. Make sure to visit
the other house in the second row and tell Miki how much you love Sega games.
Exit Sopia and walk east until you hit the shoreline. Climb into your
Hovercraft and continue east to an island with an Ant Lion and several cacti
on it. Disembark and walk to the southmost space on the island; from here,
walk up one space and right one space. Search here for the Mirror Shield, the
strongest shield available to Odin and the easiest way to defeat Medusa.
Equip it on Odin. Now would be a good time to buy that Light Saber for Alis if
you haven't already.

[IV.G.5] Medusa and the Laconian Axe

for a few steps and directly south into the mountains. Follow the path to the
tower at the end and enter. Odin's going to finish what he started.

You can easily avoid the pitfalls with the map, but be extra careful
not to fall (or accidently walk!) into the basement; that's where the Titans,
Sorcerers, and Horsemen live, and they're tougher than anything on the upper
floors of the tower. The Sorcerers (and Marauders, found on the upper levels)
can use the devestating Thun spell, so don't be afraid to turn tail and run
away if you encounter one. Their Thun is just as potent as Noah's, 30 damage
to every party member. Ouch.

| Medusa | 200 | 15 | 75 |Lac. Axe| No |
------------------------------------------------------------
This isn't a difficult battle as long as Myau has enough MP for a few
rounds of Cure. Alis and Odin should attack as usual, and Noah should cast
Wind. He may have learned Thun by now, but against a single enemy Wind does
the same damage for fewer MP. Medusa will leave behind the fabled Laconian Axe.
Use the Flute to warp out of the tower and return to Camineet to stay at
Suelo's
Laconian Axe vs. Laser Gun:
A lot of guides recommend the Laser Gun for Odin's final weapon, and I
can see their point. It's got 100% accuracy, and 20 damage on any enemy
in the game isn't too shabby. But! If you're fighting against normal
enemies later in the game, the Axe has its uses. Enemies towards the
end of the game tend to only appear in 1's and 2's, meaning that the
potential of the Laser Gun can't be fully exploited. A level 30 Odin
armed with the Laconian Axe, on the other hand, can do upwards of 60
damage per hit on some of the later enemies, outperforming the Laser Gun
especially against single enemies. Both weapons are excellent choices,
and you can honestly choose either one without experiencing much more
difficulty or advantage. Personally, I prefer the Axe because it's his
final weapon! Poor Odin got turned to stone and had to be rescued by
Alis and Myau before getting a rematch with the gorgon. Let him enjoy
his prize!
---------------------------
[IV.G.6] The Laconian Sword
---------------------------
Once fully healed, exit Camineet and walk to Scion. Embark the
Hovercraft closeby and head east until you reach a small island with a tower.
Disembark and head inside.

There is no reason or purpose for doing so, but don't be confused if
you accidently fall and find yourself passing through this one-way
wall.

The dragon falls quickly and leaves behind Alis' strongest weapon. Equip it

[IV.G.7] The Frad Mantle
------------------------
Now that your party has the best weapons in the game, it's time to
concentrate on armor, and who better to give a defensive lift than poor Noah?
If you haven't purchased that Wand for the mage, do so now. A Laser Shield is
also necessary, although this should've been purchased on your first visit to
Abion.
From Camineet, head to Gothic and from there, Uzo. Exit and pile the
group into the Landrover. Trek east across the desert and over the Ant Lions
until you hit the mountains, then go north until you see the lake (this is
also the path to Sopia thus far). Now, ride up next to the lake and switch to
the Hovercraft. Float east a few spaces and then head south and dock between
the mountains. Continue south on foot until you reach a cave.

Since Noah's going to fighting the upcoming boss all by his lonesome,
keep his magic use to a minimum, just for out-of-battle healing. Make sure not
to go below 48 MP, as that should be enough for the boss.

After 4 rounds of Wind, Tarzimal should either be dead or close, and
a whack or two from the wand should finish the job. His offensive power is
low, so don't be concerned about healing. If he gets in a lucky hit, a burger
should be all you'll need. Once you've won, Tarzimal hands over Noah's best
armor, the Frad Mantle. Equip it, and now Noah's got all his best equipment.
Use the Flute to exit, but don't cast Fly just yet. Walk north until
you reach the lake, then board the hovercraft and head east. Continue until
you hit the eastern shore, where we'll dock and walk into Paseo. Remember
Paseo? The Diamond Armor? 15,000 mesetas? You should have more than enough
after these past two dungeons. Pick up a suit of the stuff for Alis, leaving
only the Laconian Armor and Shield to find before your party is entirely
pimped out and ready to face Lassic.

[IV.G.8] The Laconian Armor

Once you've healed up, fly the Luveno to Skure on Dezoris. Exit and
walk east until you hit the ice mountains and then south until you see a
cave. This is the first of several ice caves connecting the different areas
of Dezoris.

Exit the cave and enter the town nearby. It turns out you've got to
go through another cave (just like getting to Skure), but the enemies are
the same as the Skure cave and it should only take a minute or two. You will
surface in Twintown, famous for it's Palman-hating Dezorians. It's not all
bad, though, as one of the nearby Second-Hand Shops contains our last major
purchase. Take note that the localizers chose to give the Dezorians hilarious
French accents.

We're really here for the Ice Digger, but feel free to gather
information from the left side of town -- the citizens on the right are
outright liars. If you need more money for the Ice Digger, head back outside
and hunt the Evilheads near town.
Once you've made your purchase, leave town and backtrack to the plains
between the third and fourth ice caves. Walk directly above the exit from
Ice Cave 3 and follow the mountains northwest along path, straight into
Guaron Morgue.
-----------------------------
[IV.G.8.e] Map: Guaron Morgue
-----------------------------
Like all morgues, Guaron is populated entirely by zombies, whose
torturously long attack animations are far more threatening than their rotten
maws. This dungeon is ridiculously easy if you pay careful attention to the
map; there is a trap that Myau MUST disarm (*I8) before you can collect the
Laconian Armor. There are also a few set fights with zombies in some of the
dead-ends, so... stay out of the dead ends! You can tell that these are set
fights because walking into these dead-ends backwards forces the party to turn
around and enter battle, something that happens only in these instances.
If you stick with the map of the first floor, you shouldn't even need
to use the basement map. Once you equip the Laconian Armor on Odin, Flute
out, and if you think your party needs a heal, head back to Twintown and do
so.

Now, if you think you're in good enough shape to handle a small
dungeon nearby to grab the Aeroprism, embark the Ice Digger and head south and
turn west as soon as you can. Keep going southwest until you hit the mountains,
then keep going! You'll plow right through those bitches thanks to the Digger.
Keep digging to the southwest until you reach a cave, the Ice Dungeon (for lack
of a better name).
-------------------------
[IV.G.9] Side stop: Prism
-------------------------
Since we're in the neighborhood anyway and the Ice Dungeon is easy as
pie, it can't hurt to get a small necessity out of the way for the sake of
convenience. The purpose here is to make it to the center of a small cave and
slay the Titan, thus earning you a key plot item.

Tower.

[IV.G.10] Laconian Shield
-------------------------
Head back to town for a heal if you need it, then head for the ice cave
between Guaron Morgue and the Ice Dungeon. This is Ice Cave 5, and no map is
provided because it's a one-way trip with few turns and a couple sets of
stairs. It's virtually impossible to lose your way here, so just pass on
through.
When you hit daylight, you'll find yourself in a large clearing. To
the north is Corona Tower (referncing the sun, not the beer) while crossing
the plain to the west brings us to what we will refer to as Ice Dungeon II.
It is here the Laconian Shield lies, and here that we are headed. To avoid
getting lost, simply follows the mountains below you all the way west until
you hit the cave.
-------------------------------
[IV.G.10.a] Map: Ice Dungeon II
-------------------------------
The second Ice Dungeon is a difficult cave, not only because it houses
several strong monsters, but also due in large part to its complex design.
The entire thing is constructed of six floors, each with several staircases.
Be sure to follow the map closely at all times to avoid getting lost and don't
be afraid to use your compass if you lose your bearings. You still might
have a rough time even using the map to make a beeline for the Laconian Shield,
but perservere and you will be greatly rewarded with the last bit of equipment
needed for Alis, and in fact the party.

[IV.H] The Eclipse Torth
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
You'll likely need to heal, so head back to wherever and prepare for
another tower. A helpful Dezorian somewhere has hinted to us that there exists
on Dezoris a ceremonial torch whose flame is like the sun. Said torch has the
power to melt the ice on the Tree of Laerma and allow the party to pick a Nut
of Laerma to later be used to gain access to Lassic's Sky Castle. To set
these events in motion, we need to exit Ice Cave 5 and follow the mountains
north to reach Corona Tower. Make sure that you have the Amber Eye before
setting out.
--------------------------
[IV.H.1] Map: Corona Tower
--------------------------
While there are no new enemies inside Corona Tower, the Red Dragon
that you fought to win the Laconian Shield now pops up as a random enemy, so
make sure you've got enough burgers or Cure spells to go around if one
decides to ruin your day (as they are apt to do).

"This fire was lit during the eclipse which occurs once every 100
years. If you give me a gem from a dragon, I'll give you some of this
fire. How about it?"
____
|>Yes| [without Amber Eye]
|_No_| "You have no gem! Do I look like a fool or something?"
[with Amber Eye]
"Here, take this eclipse torch."
[Alis and party receive Torch]
____
| Yes| "No? Then what did you come for?"
|>No_|
--------------------------
[IV.H.2] The Nut of Laerma
--------------------------
Once you've obtained the Eclipse Torch and fluted out of the tower,
backtrack to the area between Ice Caves 2 and 3. Embark the Ice Digger and
drive as far west as you can go, then drop south straight into the soft ice
mountains until you emerge in another clearing. Stay within the path bordered
by trees until you hit a lone tree in a clearing; drive over it to enter a
subscreen depicting a snow-covered tree. Select the Torch from your inventory
and the snow will melt, allowing you to pick a Nut of Laerma from the tree and
store it in your Laconium Pot. This will come in handy later.

[V] EQUIPMENT
=============
For an early RPG, Phantasy Star features a surprisingly large array of
arms and armor. Below is a complete list of weapons, armor, and shields,
followed by their attack strength or defense, as well as an asterisk to
indicate which characters can use them.

==========
[VI] MAGIC
==========
Phantasy Star enables three of its four characters to use offensive
and curative magic spells. As in most RPG's, magic means the difference
between life and death in Phantasy Star. Read on to learn which spells do
what, how much MP they cost, when they can be learned, and who can learn them.
-=-=-=-=-=-=
[VI.A] Field
-=-=-=-=-=-=
Magic designed for use in the field or in dungeons is described
below. Note that Alis's FLY spell is rendered ineffective while inside
a dungeon.
_______ ____ ___________ ______ ___________________________________
| Spell | MP | Used by | Lv. | Effect |
|-------|----|-----------|------|-----------------------------------|
| HEAL | 2 | Alis | 4 | Heals 20 HP |
| CURE | 6 | Myau,Noah | 6,1 | Heals 80 HP* |
| FLY | 8 | Alis | 16 | Warps to last church visited |
| TRAP | 2 | Myau | 15 | Checks for and disarms traps |
| EXIT | 4 | Myau,Noah | 17,6 | Warps out of dungeon** |
| OPEN | 4 | Noah | 17 | Opens all kinds of doors |
| RISE | 12 | Noah | 20 | Revives a character to full life |
-------------------------------------------------------------------
*For Noah, the CURE spell is only useable out of battle.
**Obsolete soon after you even get it thanks to the Flute.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-
[VI.B] Battle
-=-=-=-=-=-=-
The amount of support magic in this game may outnumber the amount of
offensive magic, but most of the supportive spells are kind of worthless;
spells like ROPE and WALL wear off too quickly to be of any use. Note that the
(2 shots) and (3 shots) beside FIRE and WIND means that the caster will shoot
two or three shots respectively; in a group of 6 enemies, only 2 will be hit by
the FIRE spell. When fighting just one enemy, however, FIRE will hit the same
target twice for 20 damage.
_______ ____ ____________ ______ ______________________________
| Spell | MP | Used by | Lv. | Effect |
|-------|----|------------|------|------------------------------|
| TERR | 4 | Myau | 9 | Lowers DEF of one monster |
| BYE | 2 | Alis | 5 | Escape battle |
| CHAT | 2 | Alis | 6 | Communicate with monsters |
| HELP | 10 | Myau | 20 | Raises ATK of one friend |
| FIRE | 4 | Alis, Noah | 12,1 | 10 Dmg to all foes (2 shots) |
| ROPE | 4 | Alis | 14 | Incapacitates one monster |
| TELE | 4 | Noah | 8 | Communicate with monsters |
| WALL | 10 | Myau | 12 | Party invincible for 1 turn |
| WIND | 12 | Noah | 12 | 10 Dmg to all foes (3 shots) |
| PROT | 10 | Noah | 14 | Party invincible for 1 turn |
| THUN | 16 | Noah | 18 | 30 Dmg to all foes |

[VII] EXPERIENCE TABLE

This multipurpose table can give you the amount of exp. needed for a
character to advance a level, as well as their new stats and any spells
learned.

[VIII] BESTIARY
===============
Phantasy Star had a very impressive array of enemies and bosses
for its time. Below are all of them, including the spoils victory over
them entails. Their ability to speak (or lack thereof) is also noted,
whether it be through the TALK command or a communicative spell. Note that
anything that isn't a Flash or a Cola can only be won from a boss, and only
once (duh).
