The bulb in front doesn't work yet, just go down from the stair. On to the
bridge, the Demon's Wall awaken, it has around 20,000 HP, better avoid to fight
it now, just run to the door behind. If you defeat it now, the stone on the
wall will raise up two more bridges which are leading to the secret area, but
before another Demon's wall in next area, it won't work. The secret area can
find a chest, possible you will get Evil Slayer sword from the chest, but

kill them as soon as possible. The special skill could send you many negative
effects which are Darkness, Confuse, Silence, Oil and Poison, sometime with
Slip also. This move can be dodged if you run further enough. But if you get

spell from the boss will probably hurt you more then 2,000 hp, use item to
cure it as well.

have to go.

**Below is some information for the optional places

they've connected to each other. If you're getting Chaos Esper (summon), you
must go through this two places. But now, before you can reach these places,
you will face a tough boss. From the Gate Crystal, go North will encounter it.

BOSS : Bomb King
HP : ?

Better prepare a Flame Shield for your characters for this better.
Three more mini bombs in the battle, their self-destruction deal great damage,
but you can kill them before they explode. Remember to cure oil status before
the boss flame you. Not much hp for this boss, but the hardest point is it
knows to fully restore hp, it mostly will restore when the life bar left around
half. When you see it is running away from you, it's possible to spawn new mini
bomb or restore it's hp. What you can do is perform Mist Knack when the boss
got around half hp bar left, and hopefully your Mist Knack combo can kill it.

If you can't beat it right now, remember you can always run away from this
boss fight. For next destination, first go to Eastern part and talk to the
moogle. Now find nine other moogles in the wood, they all were displayed in the
map screen (exclamation mark).

After searching the last moogle, choose the first option during the dialogue
to following them back to Eastern part. Now a new road open up, before leave
here, speak with the central moogle for an accessory with sleep proof effect.
Then follow this road to next place.

scene.

BOSS : (Gabrath)
HP : around 60,000

An easy boss fight, but don't forgot to cast Dispell at the beginning of the
battle. Just use normal attacks to take him down. He has a move quite powerful,
but on one target only.

BOSS : Doctor Cid
HP : 90,000

BOSS : Famfrit
HP : around 160,000

Must cast dispel to him first, better haste all your characters during this
battle. After get him half of his life bar, he will summon an esper, now you
can hurt him, but he still attacking you, just focus on killing his esper
first. His esper hp is around 160,000, not kidding, it's a long battle, make
sure heal your character all the time, watch out the Wateraja which will deals
around 1,000 damage to all your characters. Dispel his esper when he casts any
support spell to it. Fire elemental deals slightly more damage to the esper.
If you don't think you will use magic attack, just ignore if he's only cast
Shell on the esper, anyway normal attack be using more than magic attack in
this battle. After finish off the esper, focus to your main target, be careful
his special attack which can damage all your characters.

final stage.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sky Fortress Bahamut
----------------------

After some scenes, you're already inside the fortress. Following the passage
here, find your way to the central area, watch another scene. Now in the round
hall, just go to the circle in the central, you should see an elevator there,
move to there and check the panel will face a boss.

BOSS : Gabrath
HP : ?

Cast Dispel to stop his Haste first. It's quite an easy boss also. Once he left
half of his life bar, he will restore his hp and charge a little fighting
style. You send him Darkness and Slow, but sometime will miss also. Also use
Armor Break skill if you have, this could make the battle more easier. When
he getting lower hp, his combo will increase, heal your character all the time,
especially after his special attack.

After that, prepare for another boss fight, then operate the panel to go up.

BOSS : Vayne
HP : ?

Larse will help you for this battle, but still don't forgot cast Dispel on the
boss first, then keep attacking him. Larse will probably heal your characters.
Save you Mp for Mist Knack in following battles.

BOSS : Vayne = Nous
HP : ?

Again, cast Dispel at the beginning. You can see six flying weapons around and
you actually can destroy them. Since the weapons are flying, use bow or spells
if you want to destroy them. Slow does work on the main boss, also don't forgot
cast Haste on your characters. Beware his limit break, it will deal over 1,000
damage to the party, before he perform this move, you can see the swords or
weapons will surrounding him. One way to kill him faster is use Armor Break
then normal attack, also don't forgot your Mist Knack.

BOSS : Immortal One
HP : 233,000

Dispel his supporting spell first, also cast support spell on your characters.
This is the final battle, no need to save your items anymore, just use Elixir,
X-potions to heal your low hp characters, use Tose Gil if your got lot of gil,
Tose Gil mostly deals over 9,000 damage in each throw, 1 damage equal to 1 gil.
The boss builds physical barrier or magic barrier randomly, pay attention on
your attacks. Perform your best Mist Knack to deal a large damage, and make
sure he wasn't within physical barrier. You probably learned Flare before here,
just cast it when he has physical barrier, if not, use other spell is still
fine. If the boss in magic and physical barrier in the same time, the only
thing you can do is wait, same time heal and cure you character as well.

After this hard battle, you will beat the game, enjoy the ending.
