-Version 1.0: 06/15/05.

Just Starting, will get a bunch more done soon.

==============================================================================

-Version 1.1: 06/28/05.

Fixed a "Perkhad" to "Pherkad". Fixed my e-mail address. Changed "Pherkad" to
"Sadal Suud". Added the drops for the monsters in the Portal to Another
Dimension. Some other fixes as well.

==============================================================================

-Version 1.2: 07/02/05.

Added Small Knife to Unuk.  Thanks to Vilurum, and thusly I added Vilurum to
the Thanks section. Working on a Weapon Location List.  Done with Kalas' sword
list, but I haven't started on the others.  That should be done around August.

==============================================================================

-Version 1.3: 7/7/05.

Finished with the Cor Hydrae Drops, so anyone looking for those can get them.
Added some thanks and some drops, no major changes.

==============================================================================

-Version 1.4: 11/02/05

Been a while since I've updated this thing.  Kinda hard to do without a pc,
but I'm back, and I've gotten some good ideas from the message boards on how
to improve this guide.  I'm adding a Farming section to the walkthrough as
per Vilurum's suggestion.

==============================================================================

-Version 1.5: 11/11/09

FOUR YEARS since my last update. I just started playing this again, so I
thought I'd take a crack at updating this guide. Nice to see that people still
use this guide and still play this game. Also nice to see some of the old
familiar faces on the boards. Oh man did I leave off quite a few things.
Added experience numbers for some monsters that needed them.

==============================================================================
==============================================================================
==============================================================================
II. FAQ
==============================================================================

The only question I've gotten from this guide was some confusion about Light
and Dark type advantages, so still no questions! Go me for having such a well
put together guide!

==============================================================================
==============================================================================
==============================================================================
III. Walkthrough
==============================================================================

The heart of this Guide. I will walk you through (oh, just got it, walkthrough
) the game about what items to pick up and what items emenies drop in the
dungeons. Naturally, this guide is a work in progress, but this guide is
intented to help players in questions of what to pick up and what to let go in
the game. If you are looking for a guide about what to do in the non-battle
portion of this game, then you have come to the wrong place. Now some of you
might think that because this is a dungeons guide that sidequests located in
dungeons would be covered here, well you are wrong.  Unless they directly
involve getting a treasure also located in the SAME dungeon, I will not cover
ANY SIDEQUESTS, although I am not talking about Zosma for the reason that it
is just too fun to spoil.  Ahh how it reminds me of the good ol days of Zelda.

First I will go over the format of this guide to help facilitate your game
playing needs.  I was looking at the FAQ for the enemy drop on GameFAQs, and
ended up going to the forum to ask further questions about what magnus are
good to keep and which ones I should let go, this led me to the creation of
this guide.  Also I was particularly bored.  In going through the walkthrough,
understand that this is simply a guide for the dungeons of the game and about
what magnus are important for what sections.

First I will list what each enemy drops and some enemy stats as well for your
convenience.  Then I will outline what is essential and what is nessecary, and
what is junk using a 1-10 ranking system.  Hopefully this will help you guys
out.  Let me lay out how my ranking system works.

Say it were possible to fight a large number of the same enemy and they all
dropped a different item that the enemy normally drops, and you happen to
take a photo of the enemy as well.  My ranking system will guide you as to
whether of not you should take the item.

So if the item has:
10/10:  Take this over everything.  You need this desperately and should take
       it over even a Rare shot of someone in your party.
9/10:   Take it if you like this item, however, most of the time you will
       end up taking this item unless you get a rare shot of someone in your
       party.
5/10:   Take this if you want it, unless you already have a lot of them.
1/10:   Take this just for collection purposes, if you have one, leave it.
0/10:   Never take this as they should already be in your inventory and are
       just a waste of space.
--/10:  These are drops that are automatically taken for you in addition to
       any other drops you have.  Mostly for Boss drops and Constellations.
AC/10:  These are items you get "After Cinema."

You noticed that I skipped a few numbers, this is because 11 numbers are too
many to assign importance to, but I do use them rarely to emphasis the
difference between other drops.

Along the way I will also include a "farming" section under certain areas. I
can see that some of you are confused, so let me explain.

Farming: In Baten Kaitos, the repetetive action of fighting the monsters
over and over again, until a certain goal has been reached (i.e. level or
gain a certain number of magnus for someone.)

So in some dungeons I will make a special note of a farming opportunity.
This will give those having trouble progressing through the game some
pointers. This is mostly for those people that like to dominate the game
on their second or third playthrough. Well with that out of the way, I can
finally get started.

==============================================================================

IIIA. Pherkad

IIIA1.  Moonguile Forest-

Items:  1st Visit: Voice 1, Leather Hat, Bamboo Shoot, Flame Sword,
       Fire Burst Lv 1
       2nd Visit: Ice Dagger, Escape

This first dungeon of the game is a good introduction to the battle system.
The enemies drop mostly useless items, but look out for Long Swords and Ice
Armors.  This means you may want to spend some time fighting Unuks til you get
sick of it.

Let's Begin. Fight the two Shawra's, hopefully you get a couple Round Shields.
Pick up the Voice 1 in the chest, I personally don't like the voice cards, as
you can usually find another magnus that helps make the straight and also does
more damage than just the 5% increase. Note that by just making a pair you get
10%, so already that's better than Voice 1-5. Moving on to the next screen you
can see an Unuk. You might want to fight this guy until you get about 4-5 Ice
Armors from him. In order to get him to reappear go back to the previous
screen, and reenter. This will give you a great advantage over the boss in the
next screen.  Pick up the Leather Hat and Bamboo Shoot.  You see a chest over
a log, but you need a stoked flame quest magnus to get it, so forget it for
now. When you are ready fight the boss. You will get a new party member, equip
any leather hats you may have on her.

In the next screen, you see a Red flower.  This area might be a little
difficult to navigate through, so let me say that you can reach the Flame
Sword directly, but you need to go up-right, left, down, left, up to reach the
red flower.  Hope that helps.  I got stuck there my first time for about 2
minutes, yeah it was embarrising, but I got over it. Make sure to pick up the
Fire Burst Lv 1 next to the Unuk and put it in Xelha's Deck right away.  Make
sure to equip any Fire magnus, and take out any water magnus that you can.
You may just have to fight LotS with Water Magnus since it is early in the
game.  Or you can go to the next dungeon and pick up as many Flame Swords as
you can, but then where's the challenge?

When you beat the boss you will be introduced to BK's ultimate annoyance.
After beating a dungeon, there will sometimes be a treasure that can be seen
in the room with the boss, but you cannot pick it up until you leave the
dungeon and have to walk all the way back through to get it.  We are lucky
however, because you need to go back anyway to get the Stoked Flame to get the
Ice Dagger. Once you are scoled by the villigers and get your blank magnus,
pick up the stoked flame from the Mayor's House and burn the log down to get
the Ice Dagger.  Walk all the way to where you fought the boss and pick up the
Escape magnus.  Essentially a useless magnus if you know how to fight.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
I would suggest not actually farming until you get to Anuenue. If only for the
fact that if you gather a lot of long swords, you'll end up throwing them away
later. Get some ice Armors and Long Swords, but once you get bored, move on.

==============================================================================

IIIA2. Nunki Valley-

Items: Flame Shield, Frozen Shield, Secret Recipe 1

Pretty much just straight foward; fights, fights and more fights here. The one
weird thing here is the waterfall, that you have to wait for in order to jump
across.  Pick up the Flame Shield, Frozen Shield, and move to the next screen.
Use the Explosives that you picked up from Larikush's place and keep moving.
In the next screen, walk underneath the waterfall and get the Secret Recipe 1.
You will ecounter Doomers, here which are very powerful Fire-based monsters.
They drop the very useful Flame Mail, and the not so useful, Flame Sword. You
will want to pick some up eventually, but not yet. They change into the
pathetic Short Sword after an hour, so make sure to only pick them up when you
are sure that you are gonna use them within the hour. Healing Items may still
be important if you havent mastered in-battle healing. After leaving you can
walk straight throught the valley, no need to reenter it.

However, in this case you will find that you need to come back and fight a
boss. When you come back make sure to stock up on some Flame Swords now so
this boss will be easier.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
Hold off until Anuenue! If you want an easier time in Diadem, stock up on
Flame Swords, but be quick about, only have an hour to make use of it.

IIIA3. The Lord's Mansion-

Items:  Frozen Shield, Chain Mail, Wind Blow Lv 1, Mink Coat, Shadow Wings,
       Shrike Statue, Cronos Blow 1, Ice Dagger, Much later in the game:
       Moon Buckle, Intriguing Mystery.

This dungeon can be exited and reentered by leaving through the way you came,
however you should note that simply leaving the room does not make the enemies
reappear, you need to leave the dungeon and come back.

Walk up the stairs and fight the Gaurds. You can try to get into some of the
rooms now, but I like going up to get the key first and then going to each
room one by one. It just seems easier. Anyway, pick up all the items. The
Frozen Shield in in the crest in front of the stairs. Walk up the stairs to
the left and pick up the Chain Mail. In this door will be Wind Blow Lv 1 and
the key to the locked rooms downstairs. A cutscene will ensue. Leave the room
and go through all the rooms. Pick up any items. Check the table in between
the two beds for the Mink Coat in the first room. Talk to the husband if you
talked to the wife earlier in Ceralbai. The second room, pick up Kalas' Level
2 Finisher, Shadow Wings. This next boss is strong against Dark attacks, but
it is your strongest attack thus far besides your spirit attack, so I suggest
putting it in. Pick up Xelha and a couple of Items for her in the next room.
The last room has two gaurds who attack you.  Pick up the Ice Dagger when you
are done.  Level up and Class up for Xelha, up the stairs to your right. Go up
the stairs to the right when you are all prepared for the boss.

Again you will see a few items that you can't get yet, nor will you be able to
for a long part of the game. Don't worry. Remember if you want to get some
Flame Swords before leaving for the next Island that you can do that once you
defeat the boss, but not once you get on the liner.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
Water and Dark spells aren't that good for the next few dungeons, so I'd just
move on to the boss.

IIIB.  Diadem

IIIB1.  Lesser Celestial River-

Items:  Chaos Edge, Heron Statue, Mana Stone, Stream Blade, Camera 1,
       Fire Burst Lv 2, Century Veil, Hemp Creel, Cloak of Dark Night

This place is one of the most annoying Dungeons, I think.  Mostly because of
the damn waterfall, but also because you don't have easy access to a lot of
Fire Magnus. Anyways, Pick up the Chaos Edge and move along. You can't get the
Heron Statue yet, so just move on.  Pick up the Mana Stone and Stream Blade.
The Waterfall is on the next screen just after the Cancerite jumps at you.
The key is to go as far as you can before you run through. If you are lucky,
you will make it through on one try.  Good Luck, I finished my Notes on the
Cancerite just getting by the Waterfall. After you defeat the boss, you will
see the skull of the fish float down river.  Before you touch it, go back to
the where you fought the boss, and continue the path, across the river to the
otherside where more treasures await.  Continue past the Hemp Creel, and you
will begin to encounter creatures from the section on Cloud Passage.  You
shouldn't fight them unless you have classed up both Kalas and Xelha. You can
manage to get around them to pick up the other items.  On your way out you can
move the Thunderfish Bone down the river on both screens, so that you can get
Xelha's class up item the Heron Statue.  Remember that you shouldn't pick the
Bone up until someone asks for it, by then you will be able to go back and get
it.

A little note on the items, The honey is extremely useful when you get some
cucumbers to make melons.  Pick up some Chestnut Truffles in order to counter
the poison attacks of the monsters.  Grapes turn into Wine and then into
Vinegar, which is a fairly useful water item magnus that anyone can use, even
the non-water users like Lyude and Kalas after the Ice Dagger becomes over-
shadowed.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
Be sure to get some Honey for later and move on.  If your Flame Swords haven't
turned to short swords by now they will by the next dungeon.  Replace them
with Long Swords until the next dungeon when they will get replaced by Chaos
Edges.

==============================================================================

IIIB2.  Cloud Passage-

Items:  Cygnus (c), Aqua Burst Lv 2

Not too much to discuss in this dungeon.  The creatures here are likely to be
a difficult challenge considering that no one has any access to chrono magnus
yet. Also, Gibari is likely to have a greater disadvantage because of the
resistance to wind that these guys have.  Anyways, try to pick up as many
Cucumbers as you can.  Also get some Dark Flares and Chaos Edges. Make as many
Melons as you can before fighting the boss and you'll be fine.

Flower buds turn into Dark Flowers which are handy for when Lyude is lacking
in the Dark department.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
As soon as you get here, try to ignore the Stripers and focus on the Albireos.
Get some cucumbers and get to work on making melons. You'll need them until
you get to Anuenue.  Also replace any short swords still in Kalas' deck with
Chaos Edges.

==============================================================================

IIIB3.  Castle Elnath-

Items:  Infinity Mask, Dark Sword, Dark Flare Lv 1, Light Flare Lv 1, Magical
       Anklet, Fading Notebook, Dark Yell Lv 1, Flash Armor, Shadow Suit,
       Light Yell Lv 1, Wheat Crackers.

The Castle is where we can get the elemental auras, which are useful against
certain bosses. After reaching the castle step off the boat and get the chest
around the corner. then head into the castle.  Talk to the knight who will
give you 4 knights and the Diadem Royal Crest Essance.  Get the Dark Sword and
head down the stairs.  You see your first opportunity for an item by assisting
the Diadem Knights.  First however, head to the right and pick up the Dark
Flare Lv 1 in the statue.

Now then let me explain these battles, there are seven of them and require you
to deploy the correct amount of knights in order to defeat the Imperial
Soldiers.  The math goes like this, whichever side has the most points wins:

Knights                 Points  Imperial Soldiers       Points
=======                 ======  =================       ======
Senior Knight           4       Blackhelm               2
Knight                  2       Elite                   1
Knight(already engaged) 1
Apprentice Knight       1
Squire                  .5

So in the first group there are two elites to the one knight that's already
there. So as it stands now the Knight will lose 1 to 2, so you need to deploy
enough knights so that your side has more than 2.  However you want to save
your good knights (knights and Senior Knights) for later so send in the Squire
and the Apprentice Knight.  The Knight will thank you and give you a Butterfly
for Gibari.  Pick up the Light Flare Lv 1 in the Statue and move on.

In the next room head straight left and into the room.  Here the battle is
currently at 2-3, so send in your Knight and you will be rewarded with the
Chronos Aura 1. Pick up the fading Notebook and Magical Anklet.  Go back out
and head down the Stairs.  Head to the left and you will enter the Knights
quarters, here you can show knights the Crest and they will be recruited to
aid you. Since you only have a Senior Knight, pick up a Knight, an Apprentice
and another Squire.  Fight the Soldier that is about to slay a Knight, he
doesn't give you anything, but a clue about which Soldiers are stonger.
Anyways, time for the next group.

Here the battle is 1-2, so deploy the Squire and Apprentice and be rewarded
the Fire Aura 1.

The next group is down the strairs to the left.  Fight the Elite that attcks
you (you may want to take a picture of the two kinds of Imperial Soldiers as
they don't appear again).  Then engage the next group.  For the easy victory
deploy the Senior knight.  Reward is the Light Aura 1. You should only have a
Knight at this point, so go back and pick up a Senior Knight, an Apprentice
Knight and another Knight. Lacking an Apprentice, a Squire will do.


Back in the other room, there is a Red Flower and two chests, pick them up and
head for the next group to the right. Here the fight is 1-5, so quickly deploy
a Senior Knight and an Apprentice Knight.  Get the Dark Aura 1.

You only need one more trip back, this time get a Senior Knight and any other
Knight you feel like getting, it really doesn't matter.  Head across the
castle down one flight of stairs and up another to meet your sixth group. The
Battle is 2-4, so dispatch either two knights or a knight and whatever else
you picked up.  Get the Aqua Aura 1, and the Light Yell Lv 1 from the painting
in the room.  You can't head up the stairs because of the rubble, so head to
the right and meet the last group.

The battle is 3-6, so all you need to dispatch is the Senior Knight.  For fun
you can also go back, pick up any spare knights and send them all to dominate
the Imperial Soldiers.  You are given the Wind Aura 1 and are ready to fight
the boss.

IIIB4.  Shrine of the Winds-

No items, just a boss.  I love this dungeon. A quick note that you can use the
magic pen to make The Prophet's Notebook, which informs you of magnus changes.

IIIC.  Anuenue

IIIC1.  Ancient Library of Magic-

Items:  Zeit Robe, Sforzando, Will-O'-Wisp Hat, Wave Blade, Kite Shield,
       Deluxe Shortcake, Falcon Statue, Scarlet Shell, Deluxe Cookies, Magnum
       Cornet, Silver Sword, Ruby Earrings, Deluxe Bonbon, Taurus (c), Fruity
       Gelatin, Water Mirror Anklet

This is another standard dungeon with monsters and puzzles.  Grab the Ziet
Robe and the Geography Section Key, which is the key to the first room to the
left. There are two items you need to find here besides the obvious ones, the
Philosophy Section Key and the Geography Book.  Both are on bookcases on the
bottom edge of the room.  Arrange the red bookcases so that you can get the
items. Head out of the room, and then up the stairs for the next room, which
will be the Philosophy Room. Up the Stairs, head into the first door.  You
will see a key on top of the red bookcase.  Knock it over, but don't worry
about getting the key just yet. Move past that into the next room, the
Philosophy Room.  Again there are two key items to get here, the Literature
Section Key and the Philosophy Book.  They are both in the lower left of the
room.  Move the Bookcase DOWN to get a place to jump in order to reach the
items.  Head back out into the larger room and into the Literature Section.
Only have to worry about getting the Liturature Book here, as the key for
the next section is on the floor. Once you get it, head back out of the large
room, and going back into using the other door to pick up the key to the
History Section. The History Section is back down the stairs in the other door
with the magical seal next to the Geography Section.  Pick up the History Book
and all the treasures, including the Deluxe Bonbon which is on one of the
upper left bookcases by the entrance.  Once you have all the books, you need
to put them in the large room, where you knocked over the bookcase.  Find the
right spot for them and the door to the boss will open.

There are a couple of very good drops in this area. First lets start with the
Skeleton Warrior.  These guys drop Ray of Truth, which is a light sword for
Kalas.  They are really the only good light sword Kalas has, even with it
being a combo 2 sword.  Next are Crystal Mail, this armor stayed with me til
very near the end of the game, pick up at least 5-10 of them.  Strawberries
are the new best healing item so pick up a few. I strongly suggest not taking
Blue Storm when you see it.  Usually if you put more than 1 of the same
finisher in a deck, you end up making shorter combos that do less damage.
Anyway, The enemies in the bookcases are even better, for one reason, a peach.
This item will become a Peach Boy which has 56 Atk, and after 72 hours becomes
the Uber Wonder MOMO, healing 2800 and Cure All(100%), SwEeT! Almost all the
drops here are worth getting at this point, so stock up. If you are wondering
about the silkworm being a rank 9, it's because it turns into Silk which
sells for 30k.

Remember to come back after fighting the boss to pick up Xelha's armor.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
Ah, the very best place to begin our farming habits.  Plently of good magnus
for almost all of your characters. The goal I usually set here is 15 peaches.
Once I get 15 peaches from the Cursed Spell Book, I move on.  By the time I
get 15 peaches, I have enough of everything else that I'm all set til the next
dungeon. You may also want to get enough Crystal Mails for your party.  I'd
say eight is enough. Just be sure to get as many Peaches as you want Wonder
MOMOs.

IIIC2. Holoholo Jungle-

Items:  Silver Earrings, Ice Crystal Buckle, Brave Knight Helm, Heat Paddle,
       Fire Burst Lv 3, Smash Tackle, Wind Yell Lv 1, Equuleus (c)

You need to get the Landmark Stone from the Principle of the school of magic
to get through here, so get that.  It's kinda hard to describe where to go, so
I'll just let you discover that on your own. There is no boss here to worry
about and this is one of those dungeons that once you pass through it, you
don't need to go back and do it again.  The important drops here are the fire
items, The next boss will be water-based, so stock up on Flame Spheres for an
unnamed character, and Will-O'-Wisp hats for the lady. Skipjacks also are very
good sources for healing.  Making them Minced will add to their healing aid.
Chronos Blow 2 also help in the next area, so pick some up if you didn't do it
in the Library.  Fighting the Undead Swordsman should prove useful later.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
My last playthrough I skipped farming here, but if you choose to farm, get as
many Chronos Blow 2s as you can and the Will-O-Wisp hats only show up here, so
pick one up.

IIIC3.  Celestial Tree-

Items:  Crater (c), Wild Cherry Bud

This is the simplest dungeon in Anuenue, just climb and fight, climb and fight
till you reach the girl, and then climb some more and fight some more.
Remember when I said this boss was water-based? Well now is your last chance
to stock up on fire magnus.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
Get enough Flametounges and Heat Paddles for Kalas and Gibari.  You won't get
any better fire weapons until the 2nd disc. I usually pick up around 10
paddles and 6 swords. You will get another chance to pick up flametongues in
another dungeon soon.

IIID.  Mira

IIID1.  Portal to an Outer Dimension-

Items: None

This technically isn't Mira, but I will include it here anyways.  There are a
few things that you need to get here for the gathering, make sure you get the
rank 10 items.  Also if you are going for the complete gathering, make sure to
get the pictures of the enemies as well.  In fact consider the picture here as
a rank 10 item.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
The best way to farm is to not shoot from the Ship at all. This way Mizuti
gets too far ahead of you by the last wave and you get to go again, keeping
any magnus that you get from battles, not from shooting the waves however.
The downside to this is if you are going for 100% completion, you should not
farm here.

If you are wondering if you did the passage correctly, you should never miss
Secret Recipe 4 or the Frost Cap. Each of these items can only
be found here, so watch out.  If you care about the other items that you can
get, then look for them somewhere else, or restart till you get a perfect run.
It only took me about an hour, so if you are game.

==============================================================================

IIID2.  Detourne, The Mystical Garden-

Items: Silver Barrette, Whirlwind Hit

This is one of the more tedious dungeons of the game.  A lot of back and forth
in this dungeon.  Hop over and talk to the woman and ask her about the garden,
this will make the golden hero appear later.  Enter the maze and fight the two
Slime that you can get to.  Exit using the top-middle staircase.  Hop over to
the right side to talk to the golden hero. If you cannot hop over to the right
you will need to go back into the maze and exit using the very middle exit and
change the scales so that the other block is heavier. Agree to help him and he
will give you Jet Boots and a White Sword, which are valuable items.  Enter
the maze, using the door behind the Hero.  defeat the last Slime and you will
hear a ring. If you can't get to him because he is behind a flame, go back to
the hero and speak to him, he will give you the red necklace, which allows you
to walk over the flames.  This indicates that the Golden Axe appears in the
maze.  In order to reach it you need to exit the maze using the lower-middle
exit and hop over to the left and enter the maze. Again if you can't, change
the scales so that the correct block allows you to jump. After getting the
axe, exit the lower middle and use the axe get the key hanging from the middle
block.  This key allows you enter the locked door within the maze for a boss
fight.

Most of the enemies only show up in pairs, so you can imagine how hard it was
for me to get this section. Enjoy the fruits of my labor. Don't focus on the
Slime's, go and fight the devilish hands for the good stuff. Note that getting
meat will allow you to make beef jerky (heal 500) by using a fire spell after.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
It is super hard to farm for the aqua items here, which is why I'd prefer to
do my farming for aqua items in the Portal to another Dimension, but that's
my opinion. I usually try to get mostly water magnus here, because the Lava
Caves are coming up. Although getting light magnus should be a more immediate
concern.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
The enemies in the next few dungeons are very weak to Light and Chrono, so
the only thing you should farm are Fillers, so just pick up enough mayflys and
Ruffian Masks from the Ray-Moos and focus on the fillers.  2/5 chance to get
something vitally important for either Lyude or Xelha.

IIID4. Coccolith, Labyrinth of Mirrors

Items:  Heaven's Pillar, Corona Australis (c)

Like the name suggests this dungeon is very hard to navigate through.  You
should try and head toward the yellow moon as best you can. The enemies here
drop powerful spells and magnus for Savyna, Xelha, Mizuti and Gibari. Also you
should concentrate on making the fourth best healing item in the game, Sacred
Wine.  It heals 500 and cures Death 100%.  It's not so much the HP that it
heals which makes it great, but the ability to cure death 100%.  Make it by
using Mizuti's Holy Grail and Japanese Rice Wine. You could technically have
made this before Nekton by making Holy Grails using the two pens in Reverence,
but I'm assuming you didn't use an FAQ to find that out.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
As I said up above focus on making Sacred Wines.  Set a goal and go. The
monsters here drop powerful magnus for the next few areas. I would suggest
getting a lot of spells for Xelha/Mizuti.  You may even want to go back to
Nekton and gather some Light Flare Lv 3s for them as you will be heading into
the Empire next, and you will be facing a trio that hates the light. Also
snag as many Chrono magnus as you can for Xelha/Mizuti and Gibari.  You won't
get any more for a while, and there will be plenty of monsters weak to it
ahead.

IIIE. Alfard

IIIE1. Mintaka, the Imperial Capital-

Items:  Intermezzo, Rice Paper, Pretty Flowers, Apple Pie (slice)

This is technically a town, so I won't cover any of the magnus you can get
until it becomes a dungeon, which will be when you enter Lyude's house. Even
so, you cannot get those items until you reenter Mintaka later.  After the
scene in Lyude's home you are dropped to the lower level home and exit to
fight your way out of Mintaka and onto the Goldoba.  You just fight two kinds
of imperial soldiers, much like you did in the castle. Fight your way out to
the ship.

Again, gather all the rank 9 items and when you are ready leave on the ship.

*****Special Note*****
You should make a seperate save file before you get on the ship, just in case
you find yourself under leveled.  It is better to level up in Mintaka because
you can heal at the shop for free and without wasting an item magnus or going
into battle to try to heal.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
Get as many of the rank nine items as you can.  My goals here were, 13 Death
Pendulums, 15 White Scepters, 5 Rainbow Straw hats and 5 Veda Cornets. But you
might want to skip the Death Pendulums if you will use Lyude instead of Kalas.
Your aim in the next two dungeons is to amply prepare your light users for one
of the tougher boss battles.

IIIE2. The Battleship Goldoba-

Items:  Rainbow Straw Hat, Sheet Shawl, Grace Shield, Robe of Firelight,
       Cetaka's Sword, Rice Paperp, Crystal Nails

Now this is a standard dungeon.  Only one enemy here, the Imperial Walker.
Save if you want and start destroying everything.  Pick up all the items in
the ship and when you are ready to fight the big three for the first time go
to the console and enter the correct code.  These codes you can get from
defeating Walkers, or you can just look here:

Code    Item/Effect
====    ===========
0819*   Assassin's Hood
3291*   Viking Helmet
1324    Cinema
4649    Cinema
1004    Battle
0429    Battle
4653*   Unlocks door to boss.

You only need to unlock the door, but make sure to get the items.  Once you
enter the code to unlock the door, none of the other codes work. After the
boss fight, exit by way of the hanger.  Gather some oil essance from the
tanks and use the second car to leave.

Again, fight until you get enough of what you want, since these guys reappear
you will have plenty of opportunies to get what you want. A quick note on
Jill's Jewelry Box, you can sell it for 5k or it will turn into a Jack-in-
the-Box, which allows you to escape from battle.  DON'T go looking for Jill.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
If you still have any Duel Sowrds or even worse, Long Swords, fight until you
get enough Cetaka's Swords to fill up Kalas' deck.  Also get some Grace
Shields for Kalas and Gibari if you plan to use them against the boss. I
actually had enough White Ashes for Gibari, that I decided to use him instead
of Lyude! If you didn't farm them, then you should have some Brilliant Horns
that will make quick work of the trio.

IIIE3. Flame Cave-

Items:  Dream Blade, Serpens (c), Grumble Pen, Shadow Thruster, Catfish
       Whiskers, Gold Earrings, Solar Saber

By now, your team should have plenty of Water Magnus, making this dungeon very
easy.  You can also use Chrono on the flying Foytows, which makes all those
Death Pendulums you got from Mintaka very useful. Anyway, head into the cave
when the old man opens the door, and make sure to get the items hiding in his
place, two are on the upper-left side of his place, and one is behind the
machine to the upper-right.  Once in the cave, head to the left tunnel. You
find that because the Imperial Soldiers knew you were coming, they left a lava
surprize.  Go back to the old man, and he will tell you to get Flame Ice, this
is back in the cave, going to the right where you first went left. Go back
once you get it and he will make a Quest Magnus which will allow you to cool
the lava so you can walk on it. Grab more from him when you get to the second
lava slide.  Save at the red flower, a boss fight is through the door.

The monsters here give really nice drops, seriously nice drops. Lyude at this
point will become your combo person. All of his offensive magnus will have
three spirit numbers to choose from, making straights very easy to pull off.
If you happen to come across any solar sabers, make sure you end up using them
quickly against the boss.  They only last for one hour, so be quick. You may
be tempted to use the Green Tea or even Beer if you waited long enough for the
wheat, but I strongly urge you to stick with the Sacred Wine. The boss you
will be fighting will use an instant KO attack, and it will be hard to beat
him without using Sacred Wines.

**Note, try not to use Kalas for the next battle and remove and cards he has
from his deck. You may want to remove all the cards from anyone not fighting.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
The Foytows are my farming pick in this dungeon.  Kalas will be your dark
master if you choose to get enough Shadow Thrusters here for him. I urge
against picking up Solar Sabers as, they turn into sabers in an hour.

IIIF. Interdimensional Cracks

These cracks are located on 4 of the 5 islands you've been to, so it isn't a
seperate place all together.  Note that the Bosses appear in a set order, so
it doesn't matter which Island you go to, the same boss will always show up
first.  Since you have to get 4 memebers of your team back, I just get the
ones I liked the best first. For me that was Gibari, Savyna, Mizuti and Lyude.
You can do it differently, but the bosses will still be in the same order.

Also note that the boss prizes indicate which order you should get them in, as
the prizes are generally for the person you should be rescuing.  In which case
the way the game wants you to rescue them is Gibari, Savyna, Mizuti and Lyude,
seems familiar doesn't it?

IIIG1. The Ice Cliffs of Gomeisa-

This dungeon has wind and snow, which slow your progress. Wait for the wind to
blow in the direction you are traveling and it will be easier.  Explore the
area and touch all of the light gates so the gate to Wazn will open. There is
something for everyone here, all the enemies drop something good for everyone.
Take your time and gather some good magnus before moving on.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
The better enemies to fight here depend on who you like to use.  Gibari
finally gets a better water magnus.  Crystal Mails become replaced by Aqua
Jackets.  Forseti Robes replace Rainbow Straw hats. You also get a young
wasabi root in the city.  You can hold off farming here until you get it, and
then come back to make Deluxe wasabi roots while you farm.

Farming Report:
If you read my posts about Lyude you know I dislike him, so if you use him,
then pick up some Golden Bugles to replace any Veda Cornets or lower you have
on him. The Battle Shield will not be that useful on Gibari or Kalas later in
the game, so I wouldn't farm it, but get a few anyway.

       Dark Flare Lv 4, Pot of Air, Aqua Burst Lv 4, Full Helm, Golden Bugle,
       Inferno Fists, Efreeti Suit, Dragonfly, Asura Tuba, Blood Sword,
       Birch, Crown of Bubbles, Cute Doll

Wow that's a lot of items. This is definietly one of the longer dungeons. Take
care not to get lost.  For directions look on the elevator you are traveling.
Each elevator only goes to two floors, so if you get stuck, walk across the
hall to find another elevator.  Make sure to check each passage way, as there
are many magnus here to find.  Search every cabinet, and behind every object.
You need to pick up an elevator key from one of the gaurds on the toilet on
the second floor.  In the throne room, search behind the throne to get the
Golden Bugle. When you reach the electrified gate, you will need to go back
and activate the security system before you proceed.  Gather some Water from
the Emperor's Room (4 atleast), and head back to the security device. Once it
is activated you can save for the boss fight up ahead.  It is a rather
difficult one so make sure you are ready.

The enemies here drop good defensive magnus.  Pick up a lot of them. Also the
Iron Beetle II drops Young Wasabi Root.  Do some combos to get Deluxe Wasabi
Root.  Heals 880 and cures death 100%.  Woo-hoo!  Third best healing item in
the game.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
This place rivals the Ancient Library for farming location. Not so much for
the drops, however they are rather good, but because this is usually a place
where people tend to be under leveled and need to gain a few before fighting
the two consecutive boss fights. Gathering 15 or so Dragonflys will make the
first boss a breeze. For the next one, switch in anyone strong in light and
chrono.  See why I said to get as many second hands as you could back in
Coccolith?

Farming Report:
Most of the magnus here you could have gotten earlier, so I'd focus on getting
Saxolaunchers and Aqua Implulses.  Also Chronos Blow 4 is a somewhat commonly

IIIJ2. Capella, Garden of Death

Items:  Flashy Earrings, Whitecap Shield, Full Plate, Purple Rose

This place is covered in mud, which makes walking a very slow process. Just
keep going till you reach the house. You should have the Broken Earth Sphere
after exiting the area.  This is the second best healing item, only to the
Wonder MOMO, so be happy!

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
Here is the first chance you get to obtain the best weapon for one of your
characters.  Kalas' Dimension Blade will become his staple chrono attack, so
pick up as many as you will need because you won't find a better Chrono sword
that you can get more than one of. Also Lyude gets a light weapon upgrade.
Also try to make some Pac-Man magnus here, as it is the best normal type
attack for most characters (eventually).

Ok, well this dungeon is one of the most fun I had during this game. If you
enjoyed the Zelda game puzzles, then you will like these.  I won't take away
the fun of solving these on your own.  Again if you really need help, refer to
one of the other FAQs.

Farming Report:
The enemies here are rather annoying to farm due to all the climbing, but the
drops are really helpful for the boss in this area. I'd farm elsewhere though.

Items:  Canis Minor (c), Apocalypse Sword, Air Slash, Azure Sand, Chaos Mail,
       Efreeti Saber, Silk Veil, Avocado, Straw, Skull Buckle, Holy Armor,
       Milk, Void Phantom

This place is fairly simple, whenever you get blocked go fight the Rulug that
is blocking you. Save at the red flower and prepare for a tough battle. If you
want to make this fight a lot easier, go Class up for Kalas. Not only will you
get better equipment for him going back and forth, you will be able to do nine
card combos.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
Again, here we have another place where Kalas gets another "best sword". You
can pick up his best Fire sword, Efreeti Saber unlimitedly.  Or if you prefer
his water sword, Aqua Truth, you can also get that semi-unlimitedly. The
reason I say semi, is because only Rulus drop this sword, and they show up
only about 4 times in this place as their own monster. Otherwise you have to
hope that they show up with Badwin's and hope that they drop the sword. So
good luck with that. Otherwise, not much to get excited about.

Seeing as how this is Gibari's side quest you'd expect to find lots of magnus
for Gibari, and that is exactly what you get. Again you can choose an element
for Gibari to specialize in, either Light or Dark. Dark has better attack, and
his finisher that you obtain in this area is a dark type, so it's your call.
Also you should pick up some Power Blades if you want some normal power for
Gibari.

IIIM. Anuenue II

The enemies in here do not return after defeating them, so make sure each
fight counts. Fortunately these monsters drop very good magnus.

A note that Tumart will only show up if you talk to his son first.  Make sure
to talk to him before you enter this place. He is back in the Philosophy Room
of the Ancient Library.

==============================================================================
Farming Report:
Everything here you could have gotten before, so don't worry if these monsters
don't respawn, sure they would be the best source for Wind and Chronos Blow 5,
but they don't respawn, so it's pointless. I could be wrong about the respawn,
but I checked three times after clearing the first time and they never came
back.  If I were you, I'd try to get as many Wind and Chronos Blow 5 while I
was here. I'd also get as many Battle Suits as you can from the Varalbas. This
is Gibari's best normal type defensive magnus, and its your only chance to get
more than one of them. In fact, lets be drastic and reset everytime you get
something other than a battle suit. Well you only really need 4 or 5 at the
most, so if you want more, then save and restart otherwise just be glad with
what you get and move on.

Chronos Blow 5 can be found elsewhere, but the other two rank 9 items are
location exclusives, so stock up on as many as you can.  Flugel Shields are
especially rare; they are Kalas and Gibari's best wind defense that are
obtainable semi-unlimitedly. This really should go on Gibari, since he should
be your Wind user. If you are using Kalas as your Wind user...STOP IT!

IV. Final Deck Construction

Final decks can be constructed a variety of ways to maximize the damage, but
essentially you want to keep these things in mind:

1) Do not have elements that cancel each other.
2) Try to vary the numbers so you can make straights more often than pairs.
3) The Final Straight Sunrise gives a much better bonus than the Sunset,
  however, ending a straight with a nine gives a better bonus than not. It
  should be easier to start a straight with 1 than not.
4) Of course considering the weakness of the enemy is important, but at the
  point where you should be now, it shouldn't really matter b/c most
  everything will die in one turn anyway.

I will go over what each character's best items are and where to get them.
However, In the case that only one of a certain kind of item can be obtained
I will include other magnus until it is such that it is possible to obtain an
infinite amount of them, and where possible I've put the location that it is
easier to obtain them. A quick note, I didn't include healing items because
everyone should have Wonder MOMOs and not have a need for cameras. Also I
generally only put the best item that can be obtained unlimitedly because why
would you have something inferior if you could get something better?

Everyone happy? Good, Let's begin.

==============================================================================
==============================================================================

A. Kalas-

His deck should contain mostly Swords, as the Swords can be used for Defense
as well. You should have about 45 swords, 10 Def and 5 Wonder MOMOs. He works
well with a 45/10/5, and even up to 50/7/3, although that may be a bit too

Durandals and Dimension Blades won't help anyone.

Summary:

Kalas' greatest strengths are Chrono (yes, Chrono), Dark and a toss up in Fire
and Water. Fire has better Defense, but Aqua has a little better attack.  I
prefer to go with Fire, as I like the effect better than Water and there are
many others who specialize in water.

Finishers:

I really like Chaotic Illusion. Using Lord of the Wind won't help much unless
you can find more Air Slashes. This is really the only finisher I use.  He has
the Spirit Attacks, which make for his lack of finishers. Fangs of Light is
the wrong element. I will sometimes use Dream Blade because it is so cool, but
I have a real problem with using something for the same purpose which is
weaker than what you already have. The next strongest Finisher you could have
is Flash Explosion if you have Chrono/Dark/Fire, and that is too weak even
though its a Level 4.

==============================================================================

B. Xelha-

Her deck can be focused in any area, specialize her in anything that isn't
already being focused on. Although you may want to choose what her defenses
lead to, which is Water, Light and Wind. She should focus on healing as she
should be the fastest member of your party. Heal whenever the opportunity
presents itself. Her deck should depend on where you are, but 43/12/5 is what
I usually use.

Summary:

Xelha can be basically a filler for any element that isn't already filled, but
going with Water, Wind, and Light is a nice set with Kalas fulfilling the
other three elements. Getting her defensive magnus can be tiring, but it is
definetly worth it.

Finishers:

Her Finishers are my favorite in the game.  Wheel of Light is fantastic. Seal
of Water is my all-time favorite finisher, as it has the nifty 100% chance of
Death.  Simply Awesome.  Whispering Wind is nice, but two finishers is more
than enough for me.

==============================================================================
==============================================================================

C. Gibari-

His deck leads to only one conclusion, he is a complicated man , his two best
elements being Wind and Dark. Doesn't seem like the "dark" type to me, but oh
well. Water not making much presence with attacks above 150, which is where
all you cards should be. His Oars can also be used for defense so that makes
him useful for being able to lack defensive magnus in favor of offensive
magnus. His deck should be 45/10/5 and upwards to 50/6/4.

==============================================================================
Summary:

Gibari's talent lies in things of the sky, with his biggest damage coming from
straights of Wind and Dark. As tempting as the 2 Rainbow Ashes you get are,
you may want to consider turning him into the Dark master as his Bloody Vortex
is available unlimitedly. Although he is lacking in strong wind defenses, you
shouldn't need much more than the few Flugel Shields you find, as his Mirage
Blade takes care of the rest. Fill the other element with Water since that is
supposed to be his better element. His best shot is 50% wind, 35% dark and 15%
water, following the 45/10/5 setup. Personally I actually went with Light
until seeing that Bloody Vortex was so much better. Considering that, it's
really up to you how to set him up. I like him as 48/8/4 personally.

Finishers:

Gibari's Finishers set up nicely for his deck.  Ultimate Geyser and Nemesis
Fall should have all the power you need.  If you need a 4 combo finisher, put
in Spiraling Gale.

==============================================================================
==============================================================================

D. Lyude-

The Light/Dark Guy, he is able to combo almost anything after reaching
Mintaka. He starts off not having too much in his corner, but he really
stretches out once he gets past Mintaka. His deck needs to fulfill the role
of situational reliever. Whenever you run into a Strong light or dark enemy,
I think there are like 4 of them all together, which is why I didn't use him
that much.

Summary:

Lyude is better suited for the Light than Dark, but it really doesn't matter
as his dark attacks aren't that bad either. Kalas and the spell casters can
beat him though.  I try not to use the specialists (Lyude and Savyna), unless
I have to, I try to put them to good use, but my team of Kalas, Xelha and
Gibari serves me well. Still if you like a two song jukebox, Lyude is your
guy.

Finishers:

I'm not even gonna dignify this with a response. Ok I am, use the best for
whatever element you are focusing on.

E. Savyna-

Another two-hit wonder.  Brady seems to be in love with her as they talk about
her powerful attacks.  Personally she never broke 10k, which I use as a bench-
mark.  They must have stocked up on her items in the Desert and in Cor Hydrae,
as that is where most of her items are located in these two areas.

F. Mizuti-

Ahh Mizuti....The substitute Xelha.  For all intents and purposes you can go
the entire game without having to use her. Except for the sidequest involving
Mizuti, where you don't even need to have anything in Mizuti's deck, you can
go without her the entire game. I could copy and paste Xelha's, but I'm nice
and will note the few differences between them.

Some people have complained that Mizuti is, in fact, better than Xelha, so
I'll be nice and say that she might be "stronger" with a higher magic atk/def
attribute. HOWEVER, her speed is much slower than Xelha, and I value speed
greatly. Toss up for debate, but imo Xelha wins just for having better speed.

Summary:

Ooooo! Look at that Firedrake Robe, it just begs to be used.  If you are gonna
use Mizuti she has to have all the Fire Spell magnus you have. More than
likely you will have leveled Xelha far more than Mizuti, thus anything Mizuti
can do Xelha can do better (except for Fire Defense).

Finishers:

Suprise me!
