Unless a lot of significant information is found, I will not be updating it
online for a bit. If you find stuff however, feel free to send an E-mail to
[email protected] with the title USaga in the topic. I can answer any
questions you may have or take information to add to the guide.
===============================================================================
II. Introduction
===============================================================================
Kurt is not that hard of a quest but the beginning can be a pain, especially if
this is your first character. Different characters have different ways of
advancing the story and in Kurt’s case it is side quests. Every time you
complete five side quests a new event happens and more towns are opened up to
you. This guide will not detail the side quests so it may be a bit short. I
will be doing a side quest guide later on though.
===============================================================================
III. Using this Guide
===============================================================================
Through out this guide you will notice crudely drawn maps. The maps aren’t
completely accurate but they do show the direction in which you are supposed to
go. Occasionally the map will have special symbols and those will be explained
in those Sections.
Map Key
=======
+---+
| | = A box like this represents a space on the map
+---+
* = this represents a direction that you can go
------ = A line represents a path. The line can also go up, down or diagonally
and is connected by a * (Lines are sometimes replaced with other
symbols)
? = This replaces a line on paths that require you to go through a locked
door.
# = This replaces a line on paths that require you to use the Obstacle
Crossing skill
W = This replaces a line on paths that require you to use the Swimming
skill
There are others but they don’t appear in all quests, therefore they are only
mentioned when they are needed. One other thing that you may notice on some
maps is a line or box may have a letter in it like A. Normally this means that
if you exit from A or warp from A, you will end up at the other A. Here is an
example of that below:
+---+
A---+ |
+---*
+---+ W
| 1 | W
+---* *---+
? | 2 |
? +---+
*---+
| *----A
+---+
This means that if you started at square number 1 you would need the Locksmith
skill to get to the next square which goes to the A. The two A’s are connected
so that means you can get to that section where you would then need the
Swimming skill to get to square number 2. Situations like this sometimes Occur
on the same level but is usually marked to represent where a stairway ends up.
Reading the Adventure Data
===========================
At the beginning of each adventure I will tell you the name of the adventure,
Info provided by the game and the number of turns. After that is a short
description or text explaining what to do for a particular section. Finally
below that is the map information telling you the location, condition and
monster types that reside in the area. Although a particular adventure may have
many types of monsters, not all of the monsters appear in the same area. The
condition is the general weather or atmosphere associated with an area. You can
check this at any time in the adventure screen by selecting skill and then
press the X Button. Conditions in a level can affect the rate at which you
learn magic. For example, if you are standing in water then you won’t learn a
fire spell as quickly. The same holds true for the type of area as well. If you
are in the Jade Forest, the wood type spells increase quickly.
Here is an example of what a typical adventure screen looks like:

His cursed gauntlet may be a source of irritation for those who want to make
their own path through the game, especially since the cause of his adventure is

=============================
1. The Gauntlet’s Curse
=============================
The game begins eerily enough with Kurt staring death in the face. He is in a
battle inside of his own head. The power of the Gauntlet. The opponent is some
sort of insect creature, or is it undead? While Fighting in the gauntlet time
seems to stand still and the only person aware that a battle has taken place is
you. At the Conclusion of your first fight against Scorpion, you end up in the
town of Gadeira where your house is. Kurt visits his father who asks if he is
going to take over the Gadeira Knighthood. Kurt responds by saying that he is
no longer a knight and angers his father who disowns him. When he leaves he
meets his brother Leon who inquires about the gauntlet on Kurt’s arm.
Below are the levels of the gauntlet and the monsters that you must fight. Even
though the Gauntlet is a negative, you can make it a positive by defeating all
of the creatures within. As you defeat more monsters in the gauntlet the power
of the gauntlet increases in level. The highest is level 5. The gauntlet
doesn’t pull you into battle by the number of turns but rather the amount of
real time you have spent. You will be pulled into the gauntlet about every 20
minutes of game time. If you pass the time limit while you are in a town or
looking in a menu then you will be pulled into battle the second you return to
the adventure map.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Level 1 Gauntlet
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Name | LP | Attacks
===============================================================================
Scorpion | 2 | Shuriken | X-Termination
Strategy
========
Scorpion is simple. It is very difficult to die against this one. Just use
melee attacks and don’t combo. If you’re lucky then you may spark a new
technique before he dies.
Name | LP | Attacks
===============================================================================
Zorus | 3 | Shoulder Buster | Boulder | Full Swing
Strategy
========
I don’t bother wasting my weapon durability on this guy either. Use melee
attacks once again. If you have beaten at least one adventure then you should
be strong enough to beat Zorus. Don’t be in a hurry to defeat them all at once
either because you will come across a monster later on that will seem
unbeatable.
Name | LP | Attacks
===============================================================================
Greedy | 3 | Scratch | Cry | Roaring Dash
Strategy
========
Just like Zorus just stick to melee attacks. Even attacking solo you should
beat Greedy. After Greedy is defeated the gauntlet will increase to level 2.

Agares | 9 | Big Bite | Halitocean | Torture Drive
Strategy
=========
Start by attacking with Level 4 techs that do damage like Deadly Palm and then
after about 6 of those, use a high piercing technique like Acupuncture (Spear--
>Aim) or Bloody Mary (Dagger-->Stunner). Each of the piercing attacks will
inflict 1 to 2 life points and sometimes 3. If you were taking 200 – 300 Hp
using Deadly Palm or another technique then you will be able to take life
points fairly easily. After defeating Agares, you hear a voice say “Come, come
to Starship Anchor.” Even though you can proceed to the final boss, which is
not the end of the gauntlet battles. There are still two more to go.

When the adventure starts you see a knight harassing a young boy asking him to
pay a toll. The boy doesn’t want to pay and Kurt thinks it’s sickening that the
knights are doing this. The young boy decides to take the mountain path and
Kurt volunteers to be his guard. The boy introduces himself as Ventus and they
are on their way.

You can blaze through this first adventure quickly but I suggest taking your
time by using the Road Guide skill at every step. Road Guide can find hidden
treasure chests and bags on the ground. While you are on the Sevenfold Tail you
will only find bags which have minor traps like poison and needles. The second
half of your adventure is on the highroad in a cave and in the forest. You will
find treasure chests that may have mimic traps. If you trigger a mimic trap you
will be forced to fight a Treasure Slime. Treasure Slimes are a good way of
getting magic tablets but you won’t need them after this adventure.
Make sure that you fight everything on the maps and don’t start using your
weapons until the second half of the adventure. The more that you fight, the
better panels you will receive at the end of the adventure. I cut it close by
fighting everything and Ventus and Kurt each had 1 Life Point left. You may not
want to cut it that close, but I did get all level 3 panels at the end. After
the adventure you will arrive in the village of Solophero.

3. The Vale of Swords
=============================
You arrive in the village of Solophero and now you must begin your side quest
journey. Although you have a couple to choose from, I suggest doing the Vale of
Swords because after you complete it you will start getting new characters. You
can do this one later if you like but then the enemies will be insanely hard
for just one person to handle since you must cross the Vale with only two
people. This is also a story based adventure so you should get it out of the
way. If this is your first time playing, you’re going to get frustrated fast.
My advice is to follow the map and burn through this place as fast as possible
without stopping to get anything and only to heal. Once this adventure is over
Kurt’s scenario gets a whole lot easier.
***********************
Vale of Swords
***********************
Between Serin and Solophero lies the Vale of Swords. Many travelers have lost
their lives here.
Recommended Skills: Road Guide | Obstacle Crossing

Number of turns | Unlimited
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When approaching the Vale of Swords from Solophero, use the bridge to get
across the gap. As soon as you step on the bridge, you will be attacked by
Shroomers. After the battle is over the bridge will collapse and your team will
be separated. If you are wondering how it separates your team, it does it in
order and divides the team evenly. If you have 4 people then the characters in
position 1 and 2 will make it across and positions 3 and 4 will get left behind.
If you had 5 characters then 1,2 and 3 make it while 4 and 5 are left behind.
Organize your team before stepping on the bridge.
Name | LP | Attacks
===============================================================================
Shroomer x 5 | 1 | Poison | Beat Up
The first team that made it across will be team number 1. Use team number 1 and
have them go to the other side of the rope bridge marked 1 on the map. After
that you will now have control of team number 2. Team number 2 starts on the
opposite side of the bridge. Move them over to point 2 and try to cross using
the rope. Once they try to cross, the rope will break dropping them to the
bottom of the Vale.
Now that you are on the bottom of the Vale, you must climb back up. Find the
way back up to the middle of the Vale and from there get to the top. Meanwhile,
the team at the top needs to get the vines and position themselves on point 3
of the map. Once you make it to point 3 then that team won’t be used until the
other team makes it to the vine to climb up.
This is very tough with just Ventus and Kurt so don’t dawdle. Just find the
quickest route to finish this adventure. On the other side of the Vale you will
arrive in the village of Serin. If either Kurt or Ventus dies, the game’s over.
I recommend placing Ventus in the lead position.

adventure “Big Ol’ Rascals” because it is a story adventure and you will get
another character.

6. Kurt’s Story Progression
=============================
Unlike the other six protagonists, Kurt is adventure based meaning that the
more adventures you complete, the more of Kurt’s story you get to see. Every
increment up to five will show you what’s happening in the world. Once you have
completed twenty five, you will have seen his whole story. Below is what
happens at each of those increments.
_____________________________
/ 5 Adventures Complete \
\_____________________________/
At five adventures you get to see a scene with Leon at the Knight’s Mausoleum.
It sounds like Leon is plotting against Kurt. After the scene is over you will
notice that you now have access to Chapa, Loch Vaan and Longshank. If you visit
Longshank you can get another character by participating in the monster hunt.
Before that though, visit Loch Vaan and enter the Crimson Spellshop to get
Yun’s assistant Norff.

Start
When you arrive at the site a knight is waiting at the entrance saying that the
87th Monster Hunting Troupe shall be lead by the Iskandar Shrine Knights and
that their orders must be followed. The group is led away by the temple knight
and all that remains is Kurt and his group. This is a straightforward dungeon.
You will see Sturdy Walls throughout the cave but don’t worry because you can’t
do anything with them in this adventure. Take the northern stairs down to B2(B)
and then proceed to the stairs leading down to B3. If you have the Obstacle
Crossing ability then you can get there much faster.
When you finally reach B3, the path is straight forward and when you reach the
end. Rest at the final spot and Mordeus will say “I this is enough.” signaling
the end of the adventure.

/ 10 Adventures Complete \
\_____________________________/
After ten adventures you get to see a scene with Leon at the Knight’s Mausoleum
and Jeanne Maure joins in and decides that it is time to go out in the world.
She mentions Kurt and Leon says something after. After the scene is over you
will notice that you now have access to Zomar, Wanda and Kimbali. If you visit
Kimbali you can get another character.
************************
Waiting for the Shrine
************************
When you enter Kimbali Kurt will visit his friend Edel who is living there.
Edel is also an Outland Knight like Kurt used to be and thinks that his time is
almost up. When you leave Edel’s house a shrine knight is talking to the
village chief. The shrine knights will guard the village. Edel suggests
guarding the main gate but the shrine knight is too proud to accept the advice.
That night Edel has a bad feeling and for good reason because that night the
town is attacked by monsters.

When you first exit the house you will be attacked by a monster of some sort.
Depending on the level of your party the monster will be different. After
defeating the monster you will see a map of the town. The red dots on the map
indicate where the monsters are. You don’t need to memorize where the monsters
are because you can use Edel’s eavesdrop skill whenever you want. The object is
to clear out the town one section at a time and then defeat the monsters at the
entrance. After that is accomplished the adventure is over. What makes this
adventure frustrating for some players is that a section of the town never
seems to clear out. This is because monsters are constantly entering through
the main gate.
District #1 (Industrial)
===========================
For the first district it’s best to stay in the center and wait for the
monsters to come to you. If it doesn’t clear up after a couple of fights, go to
the main entrance and defeat the group of monsters there. After they are
defeated, go back to central plaza of section 1 and defeat the monsters to
clear out the area. Once the area is clear no more monsters will be able to
attack section 1 from the main gate. Head to the 2nd district.
District #2 (Residential)
===========================
The 2nd district is just like the first. Wait in the central Plaza and take out
the monsters that go there. Once there are only a few stragglers go after them
and then return to the central plaza of the district. When all of the monsters
are defeated Kurt will say that the district is clear and then you can move
onto the third.
District #3 (Business)
===========================
The strategy in the final district is to be aggressive and go after the
monsters. Don’t forget that there is still one path to get back to the other
areas and the monsters will try to sneak by you. Kill all of the monsters in
the outskirts of the district and then wait in the center of the district and
defeat any monsters that come your way. After Kurt sys that it is clear, go to
the main gate and defeat the group of monsters there to finish the adventure.

/ 15 Adventures Complete \

After 15 adventures are complete you see a scene with Leon at Lord Burgundy’s
Mansion. Lord Burgundy speaks to Leon about Jeanne Maure. Leon is plotting
something, but what could it be? After the scene is over you will notice that
you now have access to Nivacolina, Escata and Iskandaria.
_____________________________
/ 20 Adventures Complete \
\_____________________________/
After 20 adventures are complete, a scene with Leon at the Knights’ Mausoleum
follows. Leon seems to think that Jeanne Maure is a fool. After the scene is
over you will notice that you now have access to Torle and Vaftom.
*******************************
Lord Burgundy’s Assassination
*******************************
Make sure that you keep a save file here to see the Festival and then visit
Iskandar Plaza. While at the festival Ventus will bump into an Anubito. Kurt
tries to stop the Anubito and ends up fighting. This is an easy one on one
fight in which you are only allowed to use melee skills.

After the fight you end up in Iskandar’s Mausoleum. A messenger by the name of
Hiro tells you that Lord Burgundy is to be assassinated during the festival.
Kurt won’t let that happen and takes Hiro with him into the Mausoleum to stop
the fiendish plot. You can only choose six characters at this point so I
suggest having characters with the treasure chest abilities like defuse,
locksmith, and fortuneteller.

Part of the path is blocked off in this section giving you only one course to
follow. Follow the path down to the Hall of Heaven where you will find Lord
Burgundy. When you find him he is about to be assassinated. Fight off the
Assassins and the adventure ends with Lord Burgundy safe.

Explore the Mausoleum Completely
*********************************
If you want to make the most out of this adventure then you are going to need
to explore most of the Mausoleum before confronting the Assassins. Travel
around the Hall of Heaven avoiding the fight with the Assassins and go to
Staircase J. From there, travel down Staircase E and into the Hall of Hades.
When you take a step in the Hall of Hades you will sense something moving
around. Walk around the Hall of Hades and you will be attacked by the Guardian
of the Mausoleum.

Strategy
=========
You may spark some new techniques but you should be really strong by now after
doing 20+ adventures. The best thing to do is to rotate your characters and go
for combos. If a character has not been using a weapon or learning new
techniques, they will most likely during this fight. Most of the attacks can be
deflected so make sure that you have a weapon with this ability in the
Weaponry2 slot. After the Giant is defeated a door will unlock somewhere in the
Hall of Hades. I have marked this with a path like this: ***.
After the Giant is defeated you can go back the way you came in to get back to
the Hall of Heaven and defeat the Assassins or you can go the long way around
exploring every part of the Mausoleum. Go up Staircase G to return to the
starting point of the adventure.

_____________________________
/ 25 Adventures Complete \
\_____________________________/
This is the final progression of Kurt’s Story. Jeanne decides to venture out of
the Temple and realize the dreams of Iskandar. If you have already defeated
Agares then the final adventure will change from “To Starship Anchor” to
“Jeanne’s Challenge”.
=============================
7. Starship Anchor
=============================
Once you defeat Agares you will have access to Starship Anchor which is one of
the Seven Wonders and the final adventure in Kurt’s quest. Depending on how
many adventure were completed, there are actually two possibilities for this
adventure with two different final bosses.
*********************************************
To Starship Anchor (Defeat Agares)
*********************************************
Led by the gauntlet, it’s off to Starship Anchor.
*************************************************************
Jeanne’s Challenge (Defeat Agares and Complete 25 Adventures)
*************************************************************
Temple Knight Jeanne Maure takes on the Seven Wonders.
Recommended Skills: Architect
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Number of Turns | Unlimited
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the final adventure so take your time and heal after every battle. You
can even look around for treasure. The first thing that you must do in the
first forest is to get to the Chamber of Planets. A stone door prevents you
from getting in but it is no problem because all that you have to do is examine
it. Once you are inside of the Chamber of Planets, you will be attacked by an
Arcwinger.
Name | LP | Attacks
===============================================================================
Arcwinger | 6 | Deathcry | Wingsword | Toxin | Storm
Strategy
========
Equipment with Parry, Deflect, or Block is great because they can nullify 2 of
its attacks. The best thing is to go for combos at the start of the battle
because he doesn’t normally use Storm. If you haven’t defeated him that quickly
and he starts to use Storm, stick to your most powerful single attacks to take
him down. If you are having trouble with him and he takes a lot of life points
from you then I suggest you leave and get stronger before taking on this
adventure.
After defeating the Arcwinger, a constellation board with fourteen stars and
the Polar Star is enshrined. Examine the board and you will see a constellation
appear on the dome. Next head to the stairs and climb down to Constellation
Planes #1.
In the first constellation planes you will see a line of light connecting the
stars. If you don’t see it, then that means that you haven’t touched the
constellation board. Follow the line, not going off the path until you have
reached the stairway which will now be accessible. Occasionally you will see a
shooting star. The first sighting is by moving onto 2 stars off of the path and
using at least 3 turns, The second sighting is after you’ve moved onto 5 stars
not on the path and the meteor falls when you have walked on at least two stars
not on the path and used 3 turns. If you run to a safe star on the final meteor
you will be attacked anyways so don’t let two shooting stars fall unless of
course you want to be attacked. If one drops right down on you, you will be
attacked by a group of monsters numbering three to Six. They can be good
because groups of monsters like these drop Magic Tablets.
Name | LP | Attacks
===============================================================================
Earth Elemental | 3 | Rock Out | Rock n’ Roll | Sleep | Build-Up
Magma Spirit | 3 | Rock Out | Magnum Charge | Rapid Fire | Eruption
Bully Croaker | 3 | Tongue Whip | Pyromancy | Kick | Inferno
After emerging from the first constellation plane you will find yourself back
in the woods. The woods are divided into two parts. You must again make your
way into the Chamber of the Planets and fight an Arcwinger to reach the end of
the Starship Anchor. A Meteorite Amulet is lying on the ground in a room next
to the entrance of the chamber. After defeating the Arcwinger, touch the
Constellation board like last time to reveal the path and then use the Tetra
Force to save before the final battle.
*********************************************
To Starship Anchor (Defeat Agares)
*********************************************
Go down into the Constellation Planes and follow the light of the constellation
and when it is complete, examine the Milky Way. Cross the Milky Way and prepare
to fight the final battle and solve the mystery of the gauntlet.
*************************************************************
Jeanne’s Challenge (Defeat Agares and Complete 25 Adventures)
*************************************************************
When you reach the room with the staircase to the Constellation Planes, you are
met by Jeanne Maure who can’t go any further because she has overestimated her
own strength. She has been defeated and lost all confidence. After the scene
with Jeanne, go down the stairs and follow the light of the constellation. When
it is complete, examine the Milky Way. Cross the Milky Way and prepare to fight
the final battle and solve the mystery of the gauntlet.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Arcanian Mech (To Starship Anchor)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Name | LP | Attacks
===============================================================================
Arcanian Mech | 24 | Field Inducer | Aerial Cruiser | Plasma Shower
Strategy
========
Just use powerful single Techniques because if he combos you it is going to
hurt. The Arcanian Mech has a high Life Point total but a very low defense. If
you stick to your power techniques and switch out or heal members then you
should win this fight fairly easily.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Leon Burgundy (Jeanne’s Quest)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Name | LP | Attacks
===============================================================================
Leon Burgundy | 20 | Field Inducer | Aerial Cruiser | Plasma Shower
Voice Quotes:
Start “I won’t allow anyone to interfere. Not father and
certainly not you brother!”
1st Attack “I wonder if my attacks will get through to you?”
Death “Kurt, ah, something’s swallowing me!”
Strategy
========
Just pound away with strong attacks. Leon has less life points than the
Arcanian Mech alone so this fight shouldn’t be too difficult. Make sure that
you rotate your members so that you can win this fight with at least half of
the life points for each character. After Leon is defeated you will fight
Chaos.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Chaos
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Name | LP | Attacks
===============================================================================
Chaos (1st form) | 22 | Cursed Blade | Sword Dance | Breath of Chaos
(2nd form) | 16 | Thunderbringer | Chaos Wave | Bubbleblow
(3rd form) | 11 | Weakness | Ophion | Fire Arrows
(4th form) | 20 | Degeneration | Psycho Noise | Blaster
| Ice Needles | Suppression | Raven Blade
| Neutron Slap | Crimson Flare | Overkill
| Detect Blood
|*Plasma Shower
===============================================================================
Voice Quotes
============
Kurt “Let’s finish it once and for all.”
Ventus “This one’s a handful, even for a Carrier!”
Armand “Knock this one over and I’m a hero Heh, heh, heh, heh!!”
Armand “Treating us like trash, who does he think he is?” (Fought Leon)
Platyphyllum “Is it the end of everything, ???”
Platyphyllum “This presence, its only aim is to consume everything.”
(Fought Leon)
Josef “Clyde, ??? of the Forbidden spell.”
Josef “Consumed by the lust for power. How foolish.” (Fought Leon)
Norff “This presence envelops everything, Is this the Universe?”
Mordeus “So this is where I die.”
Mordeus “Is this where I meet my death, or ??? (Fought Leon)
Edel “Darkness and light, the five elements of confusion, how can I
destroy them?” (Fought Leon)
Hiro “Heeya, maybe I’m not supposed to be here.”
Strategy
==========
The best thing to do is to use single power techniques for the first three
forms. As soon as his Life Points start going down, use bows, spears, or
daggers. Whoever has the highest skill should be using these weapons. Whenever
one of your damage users gets injured a bit, pull them from the battle and then
use someone with Purify to heal that person while they are off screen. The
second and third forms lose Life Points Quickly and Chaos will begin to use
Raven Blade on the third form.
Once you get to the fourth and final form, Use a three person team maximum and
try not to lose more than one person at once. He will use Overkill Occasionally
so be aware of your party’s Life Points. Also on the fourth form, don’t go for
combos otherwise Chaos will get a lot of attacks in a row resulting in some
serious damage. Once he begins to lose Life Points on the final form, just keep
hitting him with LP draining techniques and swap out characters carefully until
he is finished.
Congratulations you have beaten Kurt’s Quest!!!!
