Retro Game Walkthroughs for Dark Chronicles (Gamecube)
Submitted By: omega_gene
Dark Chronicles
The steps are:-
1) Get a Wrench from the cupboard located on the right side of the room. Hint: You need to go southwest off the screen and make a turning towards north. You will find a wooden cabinet along with a book on the table. Examine the table and you will get the \"Notebook\", which will allow you to joint down notes for recruiting NPCs later in the game.
2) Move towards the vacuum cleaner (placed on the table) & start work...
There will be few more cutscenes and Max seems to be late for the circus! Talk to the usher at the entrance of Circus. Hit Square and select the Circus Ticket from the item box. There will be a few more cutscenes. You need to get back your ticket...
Talk to everyone in the area except for the clown. Go and find a girl near the balloons cart. Talk to her and it will trigger a cutscene. Max will eventually recovers the ticket. Present the ticket and you will be allowed to be admitted into the circus.
There will be more cutscenes at the circus and another introduction battle involving Max begins. The key item \"Wrench\" has become \"Battle Wrench\", the default weapon for Max. Wreck the enemies. If you need healing, hit Triangle and choose \"Bread\" from your inventory. I would recommend you to equip all the Bread on Max\'s item holders.
There will be a few more cutscenes and it will marks the beginning of Chapter 1.

=============================================
* These medal conditions will only appear after you have unlock them by playing through the game.
Sewer Entrance
````````````````
There will be a couple of cutscenes between Max and Donny. You will be given some time to take a breather or you can just talk to Donny & ask him about the underground sewer. Eventually, Max gets his ranged weapon - Classic Gun and a Help Receiver.
Once you are done, proceed down the ladder and head for the sewers.
Choose \"Yes\" to proceed to the next floor. By the way, you can activate the save menu with Triangle button & return back to the Sewer Entrance (where Donny is) with Square button

- Attack and defeat all enemies without healing
Spheda Prize: 2x Treasure Chest Key
Here comes the dungeon part of Dark Cloud games. First of all, make sure you view the in-game help regarding dungeons. Donny will call Max and tells him on the requirements to clear this floor.
Your objective is to defeat an enemy (random) that holds an item called \"Gate Key\". Use the Gate Key at the Gate (indicated by a large yellow dot) on the radar. Square button will activates any equipped item on the item holder while you are at dungeons.
Beware of Froggy\'s breath attack as it could causes annoying status ailments such as Poison. If Max is poisoned, use a Poison Drink to restore the status.
Just simply wack the enemies with your gun and wrench. You should have no difficulties. Once the weapon levels up, do not hestiate to perform synthesis to enhance the weapon\'s attributes. Refer to Part V for more details. As for the medal conditions, ignore it for the time being.

- Attack and defeat all enemies using only ITEMS
Georama Supplies (available until you unlock Georama System)
Unknown Bone, Scrap of Metal, Hunk of Copper , Thick Hide
Spheda Prize: 1x Diamond
This area is a bit more tricky due to flying enemies. For flying enemies, I recommend you to use Max\'s right-hand weapon - the gun to shoot them down. You can also hurl crates by pick them up with R1 and X and hit X to throw. If a crate hits a target, most of the enemies will be stunned. Thus allow you to unleash a combo where enemy is left unguarded and giving you a easier item.
| #1-3 | Ghost in The Channel
Enemies: Baron Balloon, Bat, Turtle, Nightstalker

Georama Supplies (available until you unlock Georama System)
Unknown Bone, Scrap of Metal, Hunk of Copper , Thick Hide
Spheda Prize: 4x Improved Bomb
Donny will make another call to Max - it is a nice reminder on upgrading your weapon due to stronger monsters. Upgrade the Cyclone and Smash attributes for Max\'s gun and wrench respectively if you have accumulated sufficient synth points.
Beware of Turtle and Nightstalker - the newly found enemies. Turtle has the ability of guarding and causing heavy damage with its head bump due to the Rage Counter. The backflip (back+X, with target lock -on the enemy) comes handly. Nightstalker has the ability to toss fireballs with homing capabilities at Max, thus making your life difficult. It can also do a devastating spin move. Dodge the fireballs and approach close to wreck heavy damage with Max\'s Wrench.
There is a new feature available - you will find a Channel Key from the chests in the dungeon. Channel Key allows you to excess the locked area in the current dungeon. The usage is the same as the Gate Key.
Floor 1-4 Water Pump Room
```````````````````````````
After some cutscenes at the pump room, Max meets up with Flotsam and caught with the elephant at the Circus - Linda!

There is no way that Max can do any damage on the boss. Just dodge and dodge... A cutscene will trigger eventually.
Cedric has come to Max\'s rescue with a machine - Ridepod. However due to some technical faults, Max has to retreat...
Palm Brinks
``````````````
You will be back at the Repair Shop. Cedric tells Max that he will be paying the Mayor a visit while the task of making an Energy Pack for Ridepod is up to Max\'s hands. You will be taught on how to use the camera and Make Menu. Besides the camera, you will also receive another key item - Inside Scoops Memo.
TIP: Always equip the camera on Max\'s item holder. There are some important photo shots that can only BE TAKEN ONCE.
For details regarding the camera, please refer to Part 3 of the FAQ.
To make the Energy Pack, you need the following photos -
Photos Location to take photo shoot
````````` ``````````````````````````````````
Milk Can Opposite the streets, next to the Bakery Shop
Belt Focus your camera on Officer Blinkhorn\'s belt, who is standing at the entranceway of Police Station
Pipes Focus on the rooftop of Cedric\'s Repair Shop
Once you get the photos, return back the Repair Shop. Talk to Cedric.
Follow Cedric\'s instruction and navigate around the Make Menu. Now you have the idea & it is time to make the Energy Pack by getting materials for it. You need to visit Morton\'s Sundries (next to the door, you will find a pumpkin). Cedric will supplment you with 350 Glidas (the currency for the game)
Purchase 20x Scraps of Metal, 2x Hunk of Copper and 1x Thick Hide.
Before returning to Cedric, you may want to do some shopping at the shops of Palm Brinks.

* Donny who sells items is no longer selling them. If you visit Donny at the Sewer Entrance (via accessing the manhole located on the right of the Repair Shop), he will provide you with more scoops. There is also a mini treasure chest containing the Fruit of Eden. This item boosts Max\'s MAX Hit Points by 8.
Once you have purchased the materials & save your game at the Repair Shop and talk to Cedric. Follow the steps and select \"Energy Pack\" from Invention List. There will be a few more cutscenes and Max will be bought back to the Pump Room with Steve the Ridepod!

THE PHOTO
Strategy
`````````
You begin the battle with Max riding the Ridepod. Depress L3 button ( left analog stick) to switch to Max. Note that you cannot damage Linda with Max\'s weapons. Your objective is to nap the photo shot with Max. Linda seldom uses that attack but it seems to me that you can force her to use it by wacking on the elephant\'s hind legs. Take the shot at a comfort zone as Linda can do a rather heavy damage on Max. Therefore, it is advisble to stock up Bread prior to the battle.
Linda\'s has only 2 attacks, the tusk whip and vertical hind stomp. You can actually drive Ridepod forward and whip up the boss with its cannonball punches ^_^:). If you did not take the photo shot, it is advisible to restart this game.
After you have defeated the boss, proceed down the walkway and exit the Ridepod. Examine the door and you will be able to move out of the area.
Managing Ridepod TIPs:
Steve is a machine and its fuel will goes down as it wonders around in dungeons. To refuel, you need to approach Cedric or use an item called \"Ridepod Fuel\" which can only be obtained from chests/crates/ stones in dungeon.
To increase RIDEPOD\'s attack, movement or defense, you can get new parts from Cedric by talking to him and choose \"Upgrade Ridepod\" option.

Spheda Prize: 2x Level Up Powder
The battles are getting tougher. In this dungeon, you will encounter Vanguard (a robot) which can only be defeated by Ridepod. You can switch between Max and Ridepod by depressing R3 button (right analog stick). While riding the Ridepod, its fuel will start to deplete as you move. To refuel, you need to get out of the battlefield and visit Cedric to refuel or use an item called Ridepod Fuel (obtained from braking crates or chests, which is random).
| #1-6 | Sweet, Scary Treasure Chest
Enemies: Mimic, King Mimic, Froggy, Darkness

Georama Supplies (available until you unlock Georama System)
Unknown Bone, Scrap of Metal, Hunk of Copper , Thick Hide
Spheda Prize: 1x Treasure Chest Key
Chests in this area do not seem as simple as the previous ones. It may be empty, a bloody-trap, Happy Clown present or even Mimics. Watch out for the King Mimic as you need to defeat it with Ridepod. In my opinion, it is advisible to move around the field with Max and once you encounter an enemy such as Vanguard, switch to Ridepod and finish the enemy off.
Upon exiting the dungeon, visit Cedric\'s shop for refuel. At the entranceway of Cedric\'s Repair Shop, near the trash cans, you can find a mini-chest containing Potato Pie (increases Max\'s defense by 4). Head left from the Save Point and you will find another chest containing the Fruit of Eden (raises max HP by 8) near the wooden crates. Make some preparations as a boss fight is coming soon...
Save your game!

This boss fight is relatively easy except for getting the Scoop. Switch to Max. The boss will fire red balloons (i.e. bombs), which can be grab and hurl towards the enemy. It will cause the boss to fall and you can switch to Ridepod quickly for a quick attack!
The boss has a couple of attacks - 1) nose missile - two missile launches from the nose of the boss with homing capabilities. You need to take the scoop photo for this. 2) splash - the boss leaps into mid-air and comes with a huge splash. 3) red bombs - the boss fires giant red balls that explodes after a certain time lapse. These bombs can be grab and thrown at the boss itself! 4) shockwave - close-range attack for Halloween.
If you fight the battle for a while, the boss will unleashes Flotsam Balloon which has its own HP and Rage Counter. Defeat them with Max.

Max is finally on his way out of Palm Brinks. You will caught with Cedric who will brief Max about the evil being named Emperor Griffin. Max is going for a journey on Blackstone Ore (train) to restore back everything. In the controls room, a loud bang will be heard from outside. Cedric will ask Max to check it out. Save your game and exit. It is that Flotsam and a vehicle. A boss fight continues...

Cedric will provide you with bombs and you just need to hurl them at the boss. It will be gameover once the train\'s HP has been depleted to zero.
Please note that the vehicle can shift from left and right. Just lob the bomb at the boss. You just need three hits to finish off Flotsam.
There will be some more cutscenes and you will meet up with the red- haired boy who turns to be Monica, a woman from the Future. She will be part of your party...

=============================================
You will be given more introduction about Monica and you will get 5 Armband Repair Powder for her armlet. To switch between Max and Monica, just depress the L3 button (left analog). Please note that you cannot switch from Ridepod to Monica. Anyway, the diagram below could help you to understand more about the L3 and R3 buttons more:-
Monica <--- L3 ---> Max <--- R3 ---> Ridepod
You have reach Sindain, the town of the Firbits and great tree, Jurak. However the origin point has been destroyed and you need the help of Firbits. You are now currently at Sindain Station.
Floor 2-0: Sindain Station
```````````````````````````
You will be introduced about the Support Character Features. You can get new support characters as you proceed onto the game. More details will be discussed under Part VII of the FAQ
The Non-playable characters (NPCs) that have joined your party are:-
1) Cedric - Repairs weapons, arm, refuel and make Ridepod\'s parts
2) Erik - Sell you gunpowder and make bombs
3) Bruno - Sell you ores and increase item aquisitions
Cedric in my opinion, will be currently your best NPC for the time being as having the ability to repair and refuel during dungeons. Erik could make you super bombs - which does 100+ damage to target! You can create 6 of these bombs and sell them for 900 Glidas - an easy option for quick money in the game. Please note as you spent the ability points, you need to sent them back to the train for them to recover (it takes some game time). To get back Palm Brinks (more places are being accessible), use the Move Feature. I will discuss more about in the later part of the walkthrough.
Away from the train, you can find a Save Point and a path that leads to Sindain.
Sindain
````````````````````````````
There are a lot of boulders, logs and trees in the vicinity. There is a Firbit\'s House and a Firbit. Attempt to enter the house and there will be a few more cutscenes. From the scenes, you will need to do the following objectives at the dungeon: Rainbow Butterfly Woods:-
1) Locate the 4 missing Firbits
2) Save Holly
Conda will give you a key item - Grape Juice, which will be essential for you to locate their lost friends.

Spheda Prize: 3x Treasure Chest Key
For the first time, you will be able to use Monica. You can also use Max and Ridepod. Monica is a great attacker with her Magic Bessard, that has the ability to use magic. Magic has a homing capability, which makes Monica an easier character to use. Man-Eating Grass and Himarra has the ability to launch projectile weapons that could also cause status ailments along with some damage. Dodge these attacks and close up for a quick strike. Skeleton Soldiers are weak against Holy while plants are weak against Flame damage.
There are a few chances between dungeons in Rainbow Butterfly Wood.
The Gate Key has been replaced with \"Fairy Saw\" while Channel Key has been replaced with \"Slash Branch\". You will also find coin spots.
TIP:
Gain some experience for Ridepod (with at least 600 EXP). Purchase the Barrel Cannon for Ridepod, which is extremely useful for this area.

6 Synthesis Points for Max\'s Wrench
2x Hunter Crystal
2x Destruction Crystal
1x Wind Crystal
1x Sea Dragon Crystal
The enemies here are getting tougher. Pumpkinhead has the ability to use fire magic which can be absorb by using Monica\'s absorption sword. (See Part II for more details). Moler has the tendency to go undergound and you can only hit them once they have revealed themselves. The hardiest enemy is Tore which could summon Kotore (that self-explodes upon touching your characters). Wipeout the enemies with Ridepod\'s Barrel Cannon if you have it.
Build up Monica\'s Weapon for more Smash attributes because you will need it later...

Spheda Prize: 3x Stamina Drink
This is the first seal condition. The Red seal means that you can only use Monica. Max and Ridepod will be inaccessible unless you Attack and defeat all enemies in the area.
The enemies here are the same except for the Tortoise. The tortoise is relatively strong and you use of the skills mentioned in Part II of the FAQ. You need to do backflip to avoid being hit by the tortoise\'s headbutt attack. It is nearly impossible to satisfy the wipeout goal with Monica\'s magic... There is a 2nd method to defeat the tortoise, make use of the boulders found in the area and throw it at the enemy. It will cause the tortoise to be dizzy.
| #2-4 | Great Fish Swamp
There are no monsters here but a couple of quests that you need to fulfill. At the entranceway, there is a Save Point where you could save your game. Finally, Max & Monica have met up with the remaining Firbits. The one that is fishing say that he cannot abandon his friends there. That Firbit will say that he smells something good and ask you for something. Give him the Grape Juice. In exchange, he provides with a Fishing Rod and a bait (Mimi). Yeah, you can start to fish! Refer to Part IV for details about Fishing.
Head north & go past the bridge. There will be a swamp there. Facing the swamp, move left from there and go across the boulders. You wil be a pathway to a monster. A cutscene will follow and you find out that the monster (Master Utan) that a fish has caused the Firbit to behave weirdly. Take out your camera and take a shot of Master Utan for \"#30 Master Utan Scoop\". You will get 4x Poison Apple to your inventory.
Now head for the swamp (without the fishing rod) & a cutscene will follow. Monica suggest to Max to fish the thingy out. Since the \"Holy One\" likes Poison Apples, equip the fishing rod and Poison Apple as your bait. Once you see the red exclaimation mark, hit L3 and a cutscene will occur
Once you caught the \"Holy One\", you will learnt that King Mardan ( which the Holy One is known as) wants you to catch a Priscleen Fish to clean his body. Before leaving the Holy One, take out your camera and take a picture of it - \"#33 King Mardan Scoop\". THIS IS ONLY TIME YOU CAN TAKE THE SCOOP!
Priscleen breeds in clean pond. Equip the fishing rod & a bait (Mimi). Cast your reel where you can find lilies growing on the pond. If you lose the bait, you can get 5 more Mimi from the fishing Firbit. To fish, just hit X to cast the reel and wait for the red exclaimation mark to appear. Hit L3 (left analog stick) once you saw the sign. You enter into the fishing mode. Once in fishing mode, hit X to reel in and left analog stick based on the direction the arrows is pointing. For more details, refer to Part IV.
Return to King Mardan if you have caught a Priscleen. If you haven\'t take a photo of it, make sure you do it as it is the LAST chance tha you have. Give the Priscleen as you use Gate Keys in dungeons.
Finally, the Firbits are back to normal. Head to Sindain.
Sindain
`````````````````````
Head for the Firbit\'s House. You will come to know about Holly and mysterious Rainbow Butterfly. Thus, you need to achieve an aim - save Holly. There will be some more cutscenes where you will be introduced to the Firbit\'s tools of restoring origin points - Carpenterion.
The key point is not about Georama System but the Time Gate. There is a red portal located near the Withered Jurak Tree. Move your character over the portal and there will be cutscene of Max using his jewel to teleport to 100 years in the future. At the future (Jurak Mall), you will find a Firbit there. There are 2 tiny chests containing the Fruit of Eden & a Potato Pie in the region. Please note that places in future contains power-up items for your character. Make sure you visit them after fulfilling conditions under Analysis section of Georama Menu.

* Getting Lafrescia Seed & Sundrops
---------------------------------------------
TIP: If you are short of Georama Materials, go to the rear of the locomotive and you will find Conda the Firbit who sells you all the necessary Georama Materials for this chapter.
The reason why you need to complete the Georama Conditions is that you need Jurak to give the Lafrescia Seed and Floral Monster Badge for the Rainbow Butterfly to appear, which allows Monica to transform into a Himarra and get Sundrops by using her transformed form and talk to another Himarra in dungeons 2-1, 2-2 and 2-6. The Lafrescia Seed andSundrops are essential to make the Rainbow Butterfly appear:-
After getting 4th Geostone, you will get a cutscene about Max saying to get someone who knew about trees - Gordon if you proceed to Sindain. Now make your way to Palm Brinks.
Step 1: Palm Brinks - Recruiting Gordon
------------------------------------------
Use the Move ability. Make your way cross the drawbridge (with the traffic lights). The left path leds to the pier where you can find the sealed railroad and Dr Dell\'s residence. Head right where you find the residences. Move across the large bridge until you reached a large posh house - that\'s Max\'s house!
Visit the house and you can find a Save Point there. Gordon will be standing near a tree in the garden. He says that he is feeling uneasy and request for some Holy Water. Give it to him if you have it in your inventory or you can buy it from Priest Bruno at the Church. Gordon will join your party as a support character!
Step 2
-------
Restoring the Forest Lake
--> Make the river at least fifteen units or more.
Build 20 units of River with Water Element. Place a lake of 5x3 grid in the middle of the land. For the remaining 5 units, wait first... Visit the future and you can get a Fruit of Eden, a Witch\'s Parafait & Potato Pie.
Step 3
-------
Restoring the Glowing Mushrooms
- Plant at least ten trees.
Plant at least 10 trees on Sindain. The trees can be scattered all over the place. I recommend you to build the hill first and place around 3x Thorn Trees & 1x Fruit Tree, while the 7 Thorn Trees in another area. Visit the future, you will find a chest near the mushrooms containing 4x Wind Crystals.
Step 4
-------
Restoring the Withered Tree
- Place Eye Tree 1 & Eye Tree 2 on near the lake.
- Place Nose Tree between Eye Tree 1 & Eye Tree 2.
- Surround the all three trees by a river.
The three significant trees must be placed in line with each one in a line.
Eye Tree 1 Nose Tree Eye Tree 2
Remember the previous 5 units of river that I tell you to place? You need to get them circling these 3 trees. You will find 2 Fruit of Eden and a Witch Parafait in the future.
Step 5
-------
Revive Elder Jurak
- The Withered Tree must be restored.
- The Forest Lake must be restored.
- Gordon resides in Sindain.
You must satisfy step 2 and step 4 conditions. Build a wooden house or a straw hut above the hill and place that house near one of the trees. Switch to character mode. Move towards the house and attempt enter, you will be given an option of moving people in... Move Gordon in!
Basically when you statisfy a Georama Condition, there will be an icon box that states \"something has happened in the future\". This means the place in the future (Jurak Mall) has changed. Once you head there, there will be a cutscene between Max, Monica and the Elder Jurak. You will be given some clues regarding Emperor Griffon and the Rainbow Butterfly. You must plant the Lafrescia Seed somewhere and make it bloom by using Sundrops. To get Sundrops, you must talk to a Himarra...
How?
Step 6: Recruiting Adel
-----------------------------
Restoring the Tailor Shop
- Elder Jurak must be revived.
- Adel resides in Sindain.
- 30 Culture Points must be obtained.
The Tailor Shop will sell you some important items such as Gift Capsule and the Floral Badge. Now you need to locate Adel and make a new house for her (preferred a straw house, since she was flexible). Proceed back to Palm Brinks and make your way to Max\'s house. Make your way to the kitchen. Head the stairs which will leads to the Servant\'s Room. Adel has lost confidence in herself. You need to help her gain her confident in making clothes. First of all, you need to give her a Hunk of Copper, Thick Hide and Sturdy Cloth, which all of them can be bought from Conda. Buy them and talk to Adel, choose to give all of them to her. Exit the area and return back to her again. She will give you a new set of clothes and join your party. She give me the Green Overalls when I choose as the Denim Overalls as Max\'s default clothing.
There is a condition is rather hard to satisfy - Culture Points. To gain more culture points, you need to spice your dull city. In other words, place more objects there such as more houses, fences, paint your houses, etc. If you talk to Adel, you can get fruits, which could cause status ailments or cure them. Purchase some Heart-Throb Cherry and Tasty Water, you will need them.
Visit the future. You will be able to access to the Tailor Shop and you will get to purchase the Floral Badge for 500 Glidas. Get it. Now with the badge, Monica can transform into a Himarra! For more details about Monster Transformation, please refer Part II.
Now proceed to a dungeon where you can find a Himarra (a plant with yellow petals). Dungeons are Floor 2-1, 2-2 and 2-6. Transform Monica into a Himarra and talk to Himarra. It will give you Sundrops. To transform (make sure you are using Monica) depress the R3 button.
Getting more badges:-
To get more badges, you need to make use of Gift Capsules (bought from Tailor Shop for 400 Glidas) or Julia if you have gotten her. Equip it if when 3 items as gift and throw the Gift Capsule at the target. Defeat it with Monica and you will get the badge!
As you complete more Georama Conditions, make sure you visit the future, you will find more Fruits of Eden/Witch Witch\'s Parfait/Potato Pie, which boosts the characters\' HP and defense. These items will be found scattered in future which also applies for other completions.
Save your game.
| #2-11 | Rainbow Falls
At the center of the Falls, you will find a pond where Max felt that he should drop something on it... Drop the Lafrescia Seed and Sundrops to make Lafrescia Flower bloom. Take a picture from the bottom for \"#34 Lafrescia Stem Scoop\". Examine the white thread and it will automatically trigger a cutscene with the Rainbow Butterfly!

Rainbow Butterfly

Scoop Photo - Rt. Butterfly Scoop
Take a photo shot of Rainbow
butterflies make their convergence.
THIS IS THE ONLY TIME YOU CAN TAKE
THE PHOTO
Strategy
`````````
First of all, you will not be able to attack the Rainbow Butterfly when it is merged as one. The Rainbow Butterfly comprises of 7 butterflies - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. As the flower is the source of power for the butterfly, hit the flower\'s tentacles to force it to close. Meanwhile watch out for the Rainbow Butterfly\'s beam and crystal ball attacks, which could cause status ailments.
Once you are done, the Rainbow Butterfly will proceed to the center of the flower and split into 7 smaller butterflies. To defeat the boss through you need to defeat them one by one. Monica is a good option for the boss likewise for Ridepod, if you have the Barrel Cannon. Any running, gunshot & weapons slashing sounds will alarm the butterflies. I suggest that you hit the violet butterfly first. The butterflies will fly back to center spot of the flower & do their convergence again. Take a shot and you will get Scoop #53! This is ONLY TIME that you can take the PHOTO SCOOP!
Deal damage to the tentacles again and the butterflies will split. Use Ridepod\'s Barrel Cannon to kill the 7 individual butterflies, you need to defeat in order of the colors of the rainbow. Once you are done, you have defeated the boss! You will be given the Teal Envelope to present to the Firbits.
Sindain
----------
There will be a cutscene between our heroes and the Firbits at the house. A sad story...
Make your way to Jurak and you will be notified off a great sage named Crest who resides in Starlight Temple built at the Balance Valley. However, the origin point has been destroyed too...
Once you are done, you can talk to Cedric to proceed to Balance Valley, a new dungeon.
---------------------------------------------
Additional Steps for Georama Conditions - 100% for Sindain
---------------------------------------------
These steps are optional but you can get better goodies if you do these. There will be a cutscene where you get Jurak Gun for Max, which will be very useful for future battles. To get that, you need to complete 100% for the Georama Conditions. You can also get a scoop photo by taking a picture of all three stores - #26 \"Hmm... Jurak\" Scoop
Step 7: Recruiting Aunt Polly
-----------------------------
Restoring the Eatery
- Elder Jurak must be revived.
- Polly resides in Sindain.
- 40 Culture points must be obtained.
To recruit a new person, that means you need to build a new house. Make a Wooden House. Now proceed to Palm Brinks. Talk to Aunt Polly. He will ask you to deliver 20x Crunchy Bread to Morton. Visit Morton at Morton\'s Sundries (the one marked with a pumpkin logo). He will ask you to make a trip to his house at the residence area. There will be a garden of pumpkins within his house area. Examine the door, there will be a note for him from Ferdinand. Talk to him and Morton say that you can return the Crunchy Breads to Polly as the party is called off. Visit Polly and she will join you! By the way, a new assistant will be taking charge of the Bakery in Palm Brinks.
Return back to Sindain and place Polly inside the house. Gain 40 more Culture Points by doing some fence and painting. I recommend you to make the Watermill near the \"lake\", some pots, cart, shed near the houses.
Step 8
-------
Restoring Elder Jurak\'s Branch
- At least 10 trees need to be planted.
- Place a fence around the Firbits\' House.
You need a lot of Rolling logs for these. Make use of the wooden gate so that you can make an opening for you to access the Firbits\' house. Once you make a fence around, there will be branch that leads to the upper floor of Jurak at Jurak Mall (future).
Step 9
--------
Restoring the Golden Eggs
- Elder Jurak\'s Branch must be restored.
- Place a resident inside of a Straw House.
Undoubtly, you have satisfied this condition because you have placed Adel inside the Straw House. Just simply go up the golden eggs and you will get Golden Paint, which is essential to recruit Parn! Get Parn to join in by visiting his house. There is a ladder in his house that leads to an area where you can get 10x Purple Paint. Give Parn the Golden Paint. He and his \"wife\" - Julia will join your party! You can purchase new paint from Parn! You can get a photo scoop \"#25 Find the Golden Egg! Scoop\"
Step 10
--------
Restoring the Weapon Shop
- Elder Jurak must be revived.
- Milane resides in Sindain.
- Elder Jurak\'s Branch must be restored.
- 50 Culture Points must be obtained.
Most of the conditions have been satisfied already except you need to get Milane to reside in Sindain. Milane is located at the Weapon Shop. Visit her and switch to Monica. She will give you a Gladius and ask you to build up the weapon by 2 levels. The weapon should undergo the following process:-
Gladius -> Cliff Knife -> Chopper
--------- gain 2 levels -- gain 3 levels
Once you are done, place Monica inside a wooden house near other houses. She dislike staying alone. Once you are done, revisit Jurak Mall (future). There is a chest near the ladder leading to the Eatery containing the Garnet Jewel.
Balance Valley
-----------------
Once you are done, proceed to Balance Valley Station. There is a Save Point in the area. Move across the bridge and head for left of the deserted station - You will be able to access the plateau. There is a house near the area. Enter the house. You will find an owl along with a girl (Lin) who is very sick. Max told the owl that there is a doctor that resides in Palm Brinks. Proceed to Dell\'s Clinic which is on the left area of the Church. Enter the Clinic and Dr. Dell will join your party! Return back to the house, Dr. Dell will says that no medicine could cure the girl\'s illness. Monica says that there is a legendary cook called \"Lau Chao\" who resides in Starlight Temple\'s Lao Chao\'s Bistro who could make a \"Miracle Dish\" that could cure Lin.

T h e S a g e W h o B e c o m e a S t a r
=============================================
At the beginning of the chapter, you will come know more about
Balance Valley. There is a lot of difficulty in placing objects for
Georama as you need to balance out all the 4 plateaus. Make use of
Georama mode to move your cursor near the save point north off
Lin\'s house. From the save point, head further north and you are
heading towards the game\'s dungeon - Starlight Canyon.
If you want, I recommend you to collect some badges for Monica. More
details can be found under Part II - Dungeon Basics.

All the monsters here use range attacks and you need to use the Fwd + X or charged attack to hit them. You can make use of Max\'s gun for easy damage or throw a boulder to stun them and hit them with the wrench.

There is nothing much that you can do at this point of time. Thus return back to the floor entitled \"Elephant Army in Valley\". Revisit that floor and exit via the Moon Exit.

This battle is quite easy as you have met most of the enemies before. The only difficulty is that you cannot heal Max or Monica, even Ridepod. Since all of the enemies do not cause status ailments, you just need to be more careful in close combat using Max or Monica. It is quite good to have Dr. Dell as your support character for his Cure ability. Defeat Golem and Elfas with Ridepod while other enemies with either Monica or Max.

Its ability to shot fireballs is an attack that you should also watch out for. Equip Max with a Non-Stop Amulet helps a lot for these dungeon.
Stop will causes the affected character to be stunned and vulnerable for all incoming attacks. Thus, make sure you are prepared for it...
Yorda\'s Valley
----------------
You cannot move any more further. Max is getting a bit more worried about Lin. It is time to start some Georama Building.
---------------------------------------------
Balance Valley: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Restoring Lao Chao\'s Bistro
---------------------------------------------
Wonder why this place is called Balance Valley? The place is divided into 4 plateaus. The plateaus must be balance in order to resume any building. In other words, you need to place your objects carefully. If the weight for 1 plateau is too heavy, the whole plateau will be lower than other 3 plateaus. Get the idea?
Step 1: Restoring Prayer Site, Suspension Bridge, Starlight Temple & Sacred Gate
---------------------------------------------
First of all, plant 15 trees along the plateau. You may be running out of Forest Dew due to your inactive participation at Sindain. You need to replenish your supplies from Conda. Plant them one by one on each plateau. One of the plateaus can have 6 while the remaining 9 trees separated evenly among the remaining 3 plateaus. Build 1 brick house and a Chinese Stand. Place them in a manner that the plateaus remained balance.
Return to Balm Brinks. You need to recruit Ferdinand and Stewart. Both of them can be found in Max\'s house. Save up 2000 Glidas and a Roasted Chestnut before heading there. Roasted Chestnuts can be obtained randomly inside Rainbow Butterfly Woods (Chapter 2 dungeon).
Recruiting Stewart
--------------------
At the entrance, talk to Stewart as Max. He will tell his young master that he need money for bid for an item he wants. Give the money. Once he got the money. Exit the house and re-enter again. Talk to him and he will give back 600 Glidas.
Recruiting Ferdinand
----------------------
Proceed to the kitchen and talk to Ferdinand who standing near the stove and cooking table. Give him the Roasted Chestnut, he will join you party!
With the 2 personnel recruited, proceed back to Balance Valley. Place Ferdinand at the Chinese Stand and Stewart inside the house. You can get new shoes for Max from Stewart and Premium Chicken (an item that restores HP back to max) from Ferdinand\'s ability - Cook.
Visit the future and you can find chests scattered around the temple containing Fruit of Eden, Potato Pie and Witch\'s Parafait
Step 2: Restoring Sacred Torch & Crystal Prayer Site
---------------------------------------------
Build 4 Pot Torches and a Church. Next build them without causing the plateaus to lose its balance. Proceed to Palm Brinks. Cross the drawbridge and head for the Church. Talk to Priest Bruno. He join you if you blow out all the candles...
Just stand next to the candle and blow it off. According to the character recruitment FAQ done by Otacon120 , you can blow off the candles by R1, L3, R5, L7. R stands for right while L stands for Left. The numbers are count from the bottom. For the diagram, please refer to his FAQ.
Once you are done, build the Church and 4 pot torches surrounding the church. Move Priest Bruno inside the new church. You can get some status ailment restoring items such as Medusa\'s Tears (cures petrification) and Soap (cures gooey). Holy Water can also be bought here. Place 4 Pot Torches surrounding the church\'s four corners.
Revisit the future and collect your bonus gifts from chests.
Step 3: Restoring Lao Chao\'s Bistro and accumulate 30 Culture points
---------------------------------------------
You just need to get 30 culture points to get access to Lao Chao\'s Bistro. Place a Star Lamp at Stewart\'s brick house. Build another house and paint that house purple. Provide some metal fencing for these 2 houses. You should be able to hit 30 culture points without much difficulty.
Future - Starlight Temple (Lao Chao\'s Bistro)
=============================================
Finally, you have restored the Bistro\'s Origin point. Once you reach there, you will have a cutscene and our heroes met Lao Chao. However in order to make the miracle dish, he needs a flower - White Windflower obtained in the present time. Head for Barga\'s Valley.
Make sure you check for treasure chests before departing from the future.
Floor 3-13 - Barga\'s Valley (Introduction to Spheda)
---------------------------------------------
At the valley, there will be a cutscene between our heroes and the condor, Barga. There is a time distortion at her nests and you need to close the hole up. You will be introduced to the game of Spheda. Refer to Part IV for Spheda Basics or the in-game help. You will be given some help.
First you need to get something to wack the time sphere. There is a key item \"Handy Stick\" found near the watery area surrounding the nest. Pick it and equip it. Examine the ball to begin playing Spheda.
TIP:
To hit the black hole. Aim for the hill on the left hand side of the nest. Use its reflection to hit the Black Hole.
If you cannot do it, choose to quit and Monica will did it for you. Once the Black Hole is removed, Barga thanks your heroes who spotted the White Windflower and receive it as a gift. You will also received a spheda club - Turkey (upgradeable) from Barga. From this time onwards, conditions marked with ??? will be replaced with Spheda. You will be play this mini-game upon eliminate all enemies in that dungeon and you will be given an opportunity to hit Spheda!
Head back to the Future and give White Windflower to Lao Chao, who eventually makes the \"Miracle Dumplings\". Proceed back to Balance Valley and give it to Lin. Lin will recovers and seem to lost her memories about her master, Crest. Save your game and head for Yorda\'s Valley.
BTW, Lin will be your permanent support party member until you reaches the lighthouse.

Surprisingly the battle is EXTREMELY EASY or perhaps my Max\'s wrench is too strong! The boss has a body weight press that deal heavy damage and a breath weapon that does damage + Poison and Gooey. By the way, do not forget to snap a shot of it. This is your last chance for this particular scoop!
Once the battle is over, Lin recovers most of her memories. Head eastwards from the tree and you will be able to exit the area. Next proceed back to Balance Valley.
---------------------------------------------
Balance Valley: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Restoring Tool Shop
---------------------------------------------
This step is simple. Since Lin has agreed to help your party, you have already satisfy the condition. First of all, you need to get Parn. To get Parn, you need to get Golden Paint which can be obtained from Golden Eggs in Jurak Mall.
Restoring the Golden Eggs
- Elder Jurak\'s Branch must be restored.
- Place a resident inside of a Straw House.
Undoubtly, you have satisfied this condition because you have placed Adel inside the Straw House. Just simply go up the golden eggs and you will get Golden Paint, which is essential to recruit Parn! Get Parn to join in by visiting his house. There is a ladder in his house that leads to an area where you can get 10x Purple Paint. Give Parn the Golden Paint. He and his \"wife\" - Julia will join your party! You can purchase new paint from Parn! You can get a photo scoop \"#25 Find the Golden Eggs Scoop\"
Place Parn inside the house that painted purple (he likes purple as you can get purple paint from his house). If you haven\'t place the Star Lamp, make sure you do it now. Proceed to the future and the Tool Shop will be opened. There will be a cutscene between Max and Monica about the powers of a Starglass. Buy it for 500 Glidas (I have forget the price, duh ^_^:). You should be able to find a chest containing the Emerald Gem outside the tool shop.
Once you got the Starglass, it is time to move on...

Lighthouse in Cape
========================
Make sure that you have purchased the Starglass. Once you reach the lighthouse, there will be a short cutscene. At the entranceway, there will be an indication that you need to place the Starglass. You will be taken back to the past where Moon Crystal is underattacked by Griffon\'s henchman and you need to fight Gaspard and Evil Flames!

Take a photo shot of the flying
battleship - Death Ark at the
background while fighting Evil
Flames as Max.
The battle will be divided into 2 separate battlefields. Max will be fighting the Evil Flames which will be harming Lin while Monica will go one-on-one against Gaspard, her father\'s murderer. Make sure you have equipped at least 10 Bread for Monica on her item slot so that you can use it with Square button when you need it. Gaspard can deal a chain combo with his sword but most of them can be blocked. Like Monica, he could also use Magic. Just simply wait for a stun moment before you launch all your strikes on Gaspard. Mid-way through the battle, you will be switch to Max. Seize the opportunity to take a photo shot of the Gaspard\'s flying battleship and handle those evil flames with Ridepod\'s Barrel Cannon. You can finish each of them with a single hit! Just defeat them all and the scene will switch to Monica where you could resume the fight. If you miss the Flying Battleship Scoop, there are 2 more chances coming in the next few chapters.
Once you knock Gaspard\'s life to 1/2, you play as Max to knock off all the flames. Next, you need to knock Gaspard\'s life to 1/4 and Max need to fight the flames for a 2nd round. After Max has extinguished all the flames, you will be allowed to defeat Gaspard.
After some cutscenes, you will find out the truth behind the past. Now with the Moon Crystal and Lighthouse restored, re-visit the future.

Additional Steps for Georama Conditions - 100% for Balance Valley
---------------------------------------------
You will meet up with Madame Crest (you know who she is...) and your next destination is Veniccio. You will be given a Serpent Slicer if you complete 100% Georama for Starlight Temple.
To complete 100% Georama, you need to:-
- Recruit Sheriff Blinkhorn. Sheriff\'s residence must be surrounded with fencing.
- Place a star lamp on one of houses.
The star lamp must be place on one of the houses. It is on the rear of the house.
Recruit Sheriff Blinkhorn
----------------------------
This one is tough. You need to move from the Police Station of Palm Brinks to the boat found at Palm Brink\'s Lake (where you find Fabio) and return back to the station within 2:01 secs. It sounds impossible but you can do it.
You need to make use of right analog stick to rotate the camera slightly so that Max will be taking a shorter distance. You may want to recruit Fabio first before you decide to recruit this person.
Shortcut Route from Police Station to the Boat at the lake
---------------------------------------------
- Move across from the Police Station towards the drawbridge.
- Take the left-hand path from the Church (make use of right analog stick to rotate the camera)
- Cross the small forest until you see the Monument and the deserted tunnel. Take the right path of the Monument. You will find a path that leads to the lake
- At the lake, cross the bridge that located right from Dell\'s Clinic and you will find Fabio along with the boat. Examine the boat and end the message quickly. Rush your way back to the Police Station
- Tap X before you reach the Police Station to initate the conversation with Blinkhorn as soon as possible.
It take me quite a while to recruit Blinkhorn. He will typically shows you the monsters data that you can get from Monster Notes.
Recover some Fruits of Eden and power boosting items before leaving the Moon Crystal Area. By the way, take a snap of the Moon Crystal, which is also a scoop photo.
The Journey to Veniccio Station
-----------------------------------
Once back at Balance Valley Station, talk to Cedric and you will begin your next journey to Veniccio! At the station, proceed to enter Veniccio. Max will be enjoy some shades. There is a cave entrance nearby and Monica asks Max to check it out. You will be given the chance enter Pau\'s house. Inside you will find Pau and his sea dragon (Shiguru), Shingala. However it leaves the house and you need to head into the section\'s dungeons - Ocean Roar\'s Cave to save it back!

Veniccio: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Save Shingala!
---------------------------------------------
Step 1: Restore the Lab Foundation
-----------------------------------
As Veniccio is a seaside shore, you cannot build buildings or trees directly on water. Make some Piers and place at least fifteen of them. Build 4 Iron Houses and 4 Shop Boats. Place a Shop Boat next to each house. Paint the house - a blue, green, purple and red.
Step 2: Recruit Claire
------------------------
Return back to Rainbow Butterfly Woods. Take a photo of Lafrescia Stem. Do not discard the photo. Proceed to Claire\'s house, at the area where you find Parn\'s and Morton\'s House. Go upstairs and talk to Claire as Max. Present her the photo and she will join your party. Return back to Veniccio and place her inside the Red Iron House.
Future: Luna Lab #1 - Meeting Osmond
=====================================
With all these, make your way up the wooden stands that leads to Veniccio Station. You will find the Time Gate. Visit it and you will be at Luna Lab! Head for Luna Lab 1 (red). Inside the lab, you will meet up with the chief scientist Osmond who will give you an Electric Worm and an idea of building an aquarium for you to feed the worm to the fish.
Getting the Aquarium
----------------------
To build aquarium, you need to get photos of the following:-
- Fountain: There is one at the Town Square, left from Police Station in Palm Brinks
- Wooden Box: At the alleyway left from Cedric\'s Workshop
- Window: You can get it from Clarie\'s house
Choose Make and join these 3 photos to get invention card for Aquarium.
To build the aquarium, you need to have 5x Rolling Logs, 4x Glass Material and 15x Water Element. These items can be bought from Conda.
Next, you need to have a fish. Just pop in one in the fish tank and choose \"Feed Fish\" from the Aquarium menu. Feed Electric Fish to the fish. Now the lure is done, you will be able to save Shingala! Save your game first before heading for...
(PS: Do not forget to collect power-up items such as Fruit of Eden, Potato Pie and Witch\'s Parfait for your characters)

Scoop Photo - Puppet Shingala Take a photo shot of the mind- controlled Shingala. THIS IS THE ONLY TIME YOU CAN TAKE PHOTO.
You should be fight this battle as Max. Shingala has two attacks - head swing which could knock Max off his feet and Frost Breath. Frost Breath is a range weapon that does heavy damage. Take a photo of Shingala with the mind-controlled device. Once you got that, pay attention to the battlefield. There is a yellowish object floating around the area right? That\'s the fish that you have fed with Electric Worm. Just attack Shingala (do not kill, the game will be over if you do that) and wait for its head to fall on the position that you can throw the fish into its mouth. Once it is stunned, grab the fish and throw it at the mouth of Shingala. (It is the same way that you grab objects in other dungeons)
Veniccio: Pau\'s House
-----------------------
Finally, Shingala is back to normal but it is still severely wounded. You need to get some medicine from other Shigura. But how are Max and Monica go to communicate with the Shiguras?
---------------------------------------------
Veniccio: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Find a cure for Shingala\'s Wounds!
---------------------------------------------
Step 3: Recruit Donny
------------------------
Restoring Luna Lab 2
- Luna Lab Foundation must be restored.
- Make an Iron House and paint it Blue.
- Donny must live in the Blue Iron House.
- Place the Blue Iron House near the Shop Boat.
To do this, you need to access to Luna Lab 2. First of all, you need to recruit Donny. Donny can be recruited by getting 2 coins - Dark Coin, and an Indestructible Coin. These can be obtained from dungeon floors in Underground Channel (Palm Brinks) or Rainbow Butterfly Woods (Sindain). You can also buy these coins from Tailor Shop at Jurak Mall of the future if you have satisfied the condition.
Once Donny joins you, place him inside the blue iron house. Once you have done this, proceed to the future:-
There will be a cutscene when you enter the 2nd lab (blue lab). You will meet up with another scientist (Dr Nobbs). He will give you the translation device - Shell Talkie which allows you to converse with adult Shigurus. There is nothing much to do except to get more Geostones until you reached the Shiguru Village.
BTW, do not forget to visit the Cave of Ancient Murals and take a photo of the murals for a scoop! Move across the bridge to access to the next area...

This one is tough. You will face robot-sized monsters such as Vanguard Neo and tough-to-break Sea Tortoise within a Red Seal condition. Max and Ridepod cannot be used for this area. At the start of the scene, there will be a cutscene when you will be introduced about Magic- Absorb Blade. Monica can absorb magic from enemies and use it as her weapon. To absorb magic, just hold L1. Note that you can only stock up 1 kind of magic. You will find orbs appearing on the left hand side of Monica\'s sword icon. This indicates the number of magic that you have stocked up. Sea Tortoise is rather tough as you need to upgrade Smash ratings for Monica\'s sword to deal more damage.

Max /Monica will be surrounded by the Shiguras and Dr. Jaming will hovering in the area. If you haven\'t gotten the scoop photo for the flying batteship, make sure you take it now along with Dr. Jaming\'s.
Your objective is to make use of the controlled Shigura to hit Dr. Jaming. It is impossible to aim at Dr. Jaming. Thus you need to hit the Shiguras (but remember this: do not kill them!). Dr. Jaming does not have any attacks, he just commands the Shiguras to attack you. If you hit a Shigura, it will stun temporarily and raise its head high. If Dr. Jaming is flying above that Shigura, the Shigura\'s head will hit Dr. Jaming and thus damage the boss! However, the Shigura has their own attacks too. Watch out for this!
After a short hussle, Dr. Jaming will defeat and Gaspard leaves him there! However Shigura does not attack Dr. Jaming instead saves him... After a couple of teary scenes, you will depart with Shingala. Now your objective is complete Luna\'s Central or in other words, get 100% Georama for Veniccio.
---------------------------------------------
Veniccio: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Restore the Central Lab!
---------------------------------------------
Surprisingly, Veniccio is quite easy to complete except for accumulating Culture Points. Build 8 Luna Stone Lights help a lot in this Georama area. Build an iron stand with some accessories. Build the Windmill in center of pier that you have build. Place some Mailboxes or Iron Sheds to accumulate Culture Points. Eventually, you will accumulate in no time. Once you done, proceed to the future.
Central Luna Lab
-----------------
There will be a lot of chests scattered around in the vicinity. Make sure to look for them. Upon 100% completion, Max will receive the Nova Cannon (a range weapon for Ridepod). Take a shot of the Emblem located above the Central Lab. Note that chests are also located inside the buildings! So open your eyes wide! Enter the main lab and there will be a cutscene. Max meet his mother and you need to proceed to Mt Gundor and restores Pazno\'s origin point!
With a new objective in hand, it is time to proceed to Mt. Gundor and the town of Heim Rada.

C o n f l i c t o f t h e P a s t & F u t u r e
=============================================
Most of the shops have new stores stocked up. Make sure you visit Star Items and purchased some Cheese, which will be more preferred as compared to Bread. As you enter the area of Heim Rada, you meet up with Gaspard\'s flying battleship Death Ark and fire eruptions fall on the land, make hard for you to restore the origin point for Gundorara Workshop. Besides this, Erik and Borneo resides in Mount Gundor and they can be found in the train instead of wandering outside the trains.
From the entrance to the station, you will find a Time Gate. While on the extreme end, you will find a Save Point. Save your game.

A new area with new enemies. The enemies here are strong but you can defeat them without much difficulty if you have been upgrading the characters\' weapon. Griffon Soldiers is capable of doing combo damage but you can lure them with a gunshot followed by a charged- up attack. Stick Joe flies in mid-air and are very vulnerable against projectiles.

Make use of Monica\'s Magic Absorb Blade acquired in Chapter 4 to defeat the enemies here.

Mount Gundor Peak
================================
At the area, you will find a cutscene. The large structure firing out fire embers is the Fire Squall. (Take a photo of that, it is a scoop!) Now you need to do some Georama work to get some help to remove that thing otherwise, you will have problem in building the town. Embers thrown out from Fire Squall has caused wood and hay objects to be burned! Thus, you need to destroy it...
---------------------------------------------
Heim Rada: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Get help to deal with Fire Squall!
---------------------------------------------
To do this, you need to build a lot of things. First of all, get the following objects:
- 4x Brick Houses
- Multiples \"Block 2\" stacked up 3 blocks high and place one of the houses on top of it.
- Give one of the houses a chimney
- 1x Generator
- 10x Pots
- 1x Windmill
- Place a Great Cane and Work Arm on one of the houses.
- Place iron fencing for the brick houses on lower floor.
Your objective is get 70 Culture Points for all these objects. If you have insufficient materials or cash, train up to get more cash and purchase materials from Conda.
Step 1: Build a block area of 3 blocks high
---------------------------------------------
This is the toughest site to build. You need to link up around 10+ Block 2 and Block 1(s) to create a wall area so that you place a brick house on top of it. Avoid building objects that are vulnerable to fire. They will burned once you returned from the future, thus giving you less culture points.
Step 2: Move in your friends - Cedric, Erik and Borneo in
---------------------------------------------
They resides in this town. You can actually guessed that Cedric stays here as Erik and Borneo are on close terms with him. Place a fencing around the 3 houses on the lower level. Place the generator, windmill and pots as you like. Note that crane and work arm can only be placed on houses. Erik prefers to stay near the windmill.
Do some painting. If the points are insufficient, try to build some Mailboxes or anything that will not burned easily.
Once you are done, make your way to the future - Gundorara Workshop
There will be a cutscene. There is a teleporter which could teleport you to all sides of the gigantic workshop. You need to find the Workshop Elevator to get to the 2nd floor. Make sure to open your eyes in searching for chests containing power-up items. At the 2nd floor, there will be another cutscene where Max gets a key item - Time Bomb given to you by Garek. Once you are done, go back to the present and save your game. Return back to Mount Gundor Peak.
Floor 5-12 Mount Gundor Peak
=============================
Proceed to the Fire Squall (remember to take a photo of it, it is a scoop!). Examine the doorway and you will be able to place the Time Bomb there. This followed by some cutscenes and eventually Monica will fight Gaspard and Max needs to destroy the flying battleship - Death Ark.

Scoop Photo - Flying Battleship
Take a photo shot of the flying

THIS IS THE LAST CHANCE THAT YOU
CAN TAKE THE PHOTO
Max\'s gun is pretty useless against a gigantic battleship like that. You need to make use of Ridepod\'s Barrel Cannon (it would be better if you make a better one via Make menu). The battleship has 2 major attacks - cannon balls and machine fire. The cannon ball attack is similar to the Pirate Tank that you have encountered in Ocean\'s Roar Cave. The ball will explodes upon hitting impact. The machine gun fire does minor damage but it can be devastating when Max or Ridepod is approaching near death...
First of all, you need to wait for the boss to approach closer to the edge of the cliff, otherwise Ridepod\'s attack will be useless. Dodge the enemy\'s attack as you can and fire back once you got the chance.
This is followed by a cutscene and Monica will be longer in your party. (Aeris...)
Make your way down the pathway and move pass the stone gate. You should be able to proceed to the next area.

You will be relying on Max till you locate the fallen battleship. This means if Max is KO\'d, it will be game over. If you visit other areas, Monica is also not usable...
New enemies encountered but most of them can be handled easily with Ridepod\'s Barrel Cannon. Make a habit of exiting the dungeon and visit Cedric to fix the Ridepod. You will need to rely a lot on your buddy. Lava Bat can dealt easily with Max\'s gun or Ridepod\'s range weapon. Lava Golem is an improved version of Golem encountered in Starlight Canyon. Alexander has the ability to charge at you. Therefore make use of Max\'s charged attack. Chimera is like Tigriff except it could launch nasty spikes at you! Stay close when it is mid-air and attack! The gate items have changed. The gate key is replaced with \"Rope\" while area key has been replaced with \"White Wind Vane\".

The stage is perhaps the hardiest stage that you have come so far. First of all, you are already without Monica and there is a white seal for the stage. I recommend you to get Seal-Breaking Scroll ( bought from Morton\'s Sundries for 1500 Glidas) if you have experienced serious difficulties. Fire Dragon has the ability to cause stop. Make sure Max is equipped with the Non-Stop Amulet. Save your game upon completing this.

Those pesky Red Dragons will make you frustrated. Make sure Max is equipped with Non-Stop Amulet to withstand the Stop status (Also, make sure you have stalked up some Heart-Throb Cherry from Adel). Once you are done with this, exit the dungeon and proceed to Heim Rada for some more Georama Building.
---------------------------------------------
Heim Rada: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Controls Room restored
---------------------------------------------
You need to get 100 Culture Points and get Gerald into one of the houses.
Step 3: Recruit Gerald
-------------------------
This step can be done later but I recommend you to do it earlier. Proceed to Max\'s house in Palm Brinks and go to Gerald\'s house. Talk to him and he will give Max a Trumpet Gun and ask you to build it up to a Bell Trigger. Do this like what you have done for Milane and talk to Gerald once you have a Bell Trigger. Place him inside a house that is enclosed with some fencing.
Build some trees, accessories or painting to accumulate the required 100 points. Once you got the message that there are some changes in the future, proceed to Gundorara Workshop.
Future - Gundorara Workshop
==============================
Make your way to the controls room and you will meet up the leader - Galen. He will give Max, the legendary Fire Horn. You will need this key item to go pass the hot lava of Mount Gundor.
Make sure to do some scouting to do some searching for power-up items for Max. You should have 90% Georama Condition till now...
Floor 5-18: Mount Gundor Mouth
====================================== There is a river of lava blocking your way. Proceed near it and use the Fire Horn. It will reveal the Lava Road (which is also a scoop!). Take a photo of that. Move on and you will find the fallen battleship (take a photo of that too!). Eventually, there will be some cutscenes.
Boss: Gaspard
-----------------
Max will be forced to fight Gaspard. Gaspard is a lot more stronger than the previous fight against Monica. He dealt more damage, more combos, uses magic and can deal a devastating lightning strike. You may need to use some Cheese for stand-by, in case Max substains too heavy damage. Once Gaspard is knocked down, make use of the charged attack to juggle him. This move is very useful against future bosses...
Once you defeat Gaspard, there will be cutscenes. However, Griffon has controlled Gaspard and you will be forced to fight a monster- transformed Gaspard!

Monster Gaspard\'s attack are mainly fire based. It can shot numerous fire balls and leap like a ball, causing damage by impact. Switch to Ridepod and fire your Nova Cannon while moving in circles (dodging the fire bombs along the way). Before killing off Monster Gaspard, make sure take a picture of it as this is your last chance.
Upon defeating Gaspard, you will receive some more cutscenes and Gaspard departs away. Now you must return back to Gundorara Workshop.
Proceed to the future - Gundorara Workshop. You will get 100% Georama since you have defeated Gaspard. There will be a cutscene where Max & Monica will receive the Holy Daedalus Blade - the sword used by the late King Raybrandt, Monica\'s father. You will be back at outside. Take a photo of the Paznos (it is a scoop!). Meanwhile, visit the shops and upgrade Ridepod\'s part, get new weapons and items. Make sure you take photos of the Blackstone One and its control room as it will be changed once you proceed to the Central Luna Lab.
Proceed to the Workshop Elevator and take to the third floor. Find a transmitting device and you will be able to move to Pazno\'s bridge (i.e. controls room). Talk to Galen. There will be some cutscenes and you will be able to have Paznos to aid the future people against attacks from Emperor Griffon. Once you are done, make your way back to Veniccio and head for Luna Lab - to get your vehicle - Ixion, which allows you to travel to 10,000 years in past. The vehicle will take you to Emperor Griffon\'s palace - Moon Flower Palace - 10,000 years in the past. Take a photo of the Ixion as it is a scoop! Save your game.

You will be able to move between time via the Ixion. I recommend you to enter into the palace since you are already there. Make sure that Max\'s wrench has a minimal attack power of 150. A tough fight is coming soon.
Take a photo of the Ixion before entering the palace. Save your game and you will be able to enter the deserted garden in front of the palace. Proceed to the gate and you will end in the foyer and meet Emperor Griffon.
Without any warning, you need to fight it...

Do think that he is just a kid and he can be very easy... He could fire roses like bullets and make use of magic to make him fly! Ridepod\'s attack are pretty useless against him thus you need to make use of Max or Monica. Make sure you have ample supply of curative items such as Premium Chicken and Cheese. You need to first dodge the attacks that he throw at you and get underneath him and use a charged attack. You can actually juggle him as he is a human-sized boss...
Once Griffon\'s life is dropped to half, you will experience some cutscenes and the fight resume soon after...
After the boss is down, there will be some cutscenes and your Atlamillias are being stolen away. With the aid of 3 magcial stones - Sun, Earth and Moon, Griffon transformed in a gigantic monster with wings. After some cutscenes, Max and Monica will be rescued by the Firbits and Osmond who pilot the Ixion to the deserted stone site - Kazarov Stonehenge.
Kazarov Stonehenge
----------------------
At the Stonehenge, there will be a couple of scenes where you need to find 4 gems - Earth, Wind, Water, Fire and place it on the altar of the Stonehenge to form Chrono Union, which allows you to teleport Paznos to the present time.
Earth Gem - Found in Rainbow Butterfly Woods of Sindain
Wind Gem - Found in Starlight Canyon of Balance Valley
Water Gem - Found in Ocean\'s Roar Cave of Veniccio Coast
Fire Gem - Found in Mount Gundor of Heim Rada
Sounds familiar eh? You will have encounter stars exit before right? You can go past the star exit by using the \"Star Key\" (obtained from Elena) and use it to remove the star barrier. To exit, you still need the \"Gate Key\" for that area.
Take a photo of the main stone altar of the Stonehenge, it is a scoop dude. At each gem altar, it will be guarded by a guardian (i.e. 4 mini-boss fights await for you). Unlike normal boss, they drop Glidas and ABS...

It has been a while since I use ASCII text to make maps. First of all, the diagram is not drawn to scale - it just provide you with the basic idea. I recommend you to build the parts to its limit amount. The parts are set to a certain limit and you cannot use parts from other Georama area for this area.
Make your way to the door entrance to the palace & take a photo of the \"purple eye\" to get Moon Flower Palace Scoop.
Upon completing Georama Condition F, you will get a cutscene. Once you completed the Georama to 100%, you will get the game\'s rarest gems - Sun Stone and Moon Stone. Save your game.

Floor 7-27 Sun Chamber
--------------------------
Within this floor, there are couple of rare photos. Take a photo of the statues guarding the door. Examine the door and you will be prompt to enter Griffon\'s real name. Enter \"Sirus\" (without \" of course) as your reply and you will be able to enter...
NOTE: From here till the ending battle, you will not be able to save...
B O S S
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Master of Darkness
Emperor Griffon
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The fight against Griffon can be divided into 3 separate battles...
Battle #1 - Against flying Atlamillias
You will be able to target 4 objects - Griffon and 3 magical Atlamillias. The Atlamillias will fly in circles around the flying Griffon and causes laser beams to be fire at Max. Attacking Griffon will be useless instead for against Atlamillias. There are 2 methods:-
1) Go underneath Griffon and wait for the Atlamillias be near the legs of Griffon and use a charged attack. Be prepared to waste some Cheese for the damage substained.
2) Use Ridepod. Wait for the Atlamillias are circling on top Griffon\'s head. Use lock-on and hit them with Ridepod\'s Nova Cannon.
Do this until you have reduced Griffon\'s life to 1/2. This is followed by some cutscenes...
Battle #2 - Wings as sword
Griffon will use his wings as a pair of giant blades. Using Ridepod will be useless. His attack is similar to Gaspard as most of his attacks is close-ranged except the beam wave. Try to get to his back and hit him with combos excuted by Max and Monica.
Once you reduce its life to 1/4, there will be more scenes...
Battle #3 - Flaming Griffon!
Griffon has 3 main attacks - the normal punch combo, a shockwave fire ball and a explosion ground attack. The first one can be avoided when your character is far away from him. The second one can be avoided by running. The 3rd one can be avoided by moving away from the damage radius caused by the ground attack. Take note that the shockwave could causes Stop status. Make sure you remove the status ailment or else, it could be a gameover for you...
At last, you have defeated \"Griffon\" and Sirus is back to normal... However a piece of dark cloud swivel above Sirus and reveal itself as the mastermind. You will be fighting the actual boss...
After some cutscene, you will be teleported to the Dream Spiral. Prior to fighting Dark Element, you will be forced to fight a series of dangerous enemies...
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Dream-Shredding Fang
Mammo
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Mammo is an elephant-type enemy. Just use Ridepod, fly in circles around the boss & fire your Nova Cannon. Relatively easy. If Max\'s gun has been upgraded to Supernova, it will be a piece of cake for you...
Upon defeating Mammo, just continue to make your way up the endless pathway - this reminds me of Final Fantasy X Omega Ruins...
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Dream Keeper
Nightmare
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Nightmare is a Stormy-like monster. Beware of the poison gas and splash attack. Just use the same strategy that you have used for Mammo and this should be no sweat.
Just keep on moving...
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The howl that echoes in the dreams
Black Dragon
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
I just hate dragons in Dark Cloud
2. Not only they could causes damage with their fiery breath, they could cause Stop with their regular attacks. Stick to the same strategy.
Just keep on moving...
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Servant of Dreams
Uther
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Watch out for its homing missile attack.
Make use of the same strategy that you have
used for the previous enemies.
Just keep on moving...

The double-dream ending swords
Gaja Ein & Gaja Zwei
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Once you defeat one of them, the battle ends automatically. An stronger version of Evil Nail and they could fire wave beams. Use Max and charged up your way. Once they are within the attacking radius, use it & they fall to to ground. Keep on doing this...
Keep on moving and you meet up Dark Element. After some cutscenes, you will be fighting the \"final boss\" of Dark Cloud 2:-

Scoop Photo - Legend of Moon
Take a photo shot of the falling moon in the background area of this fight. THIS IS THE ONLY CHANCE THAT YOU CAN GET THIS SCOOP.
I have faced a gameover here and need to restart this whole fight right from Griffon... Make sure you take the photo of the falling moon. For this battle, you need to rely A LOT on Max and Monica. You will be given a time limit of 5 minutes to defeat him...
Dark Element\'s attack are damaging doing from 48 HP damage to an instant kill. Hope that both Max and Monica\'s weapon is at least 300 for Attack. The core will be initially be red. When it is red, Max\'s attacks (gun and wrench) will be useless. When it is blue, Monica\'s attacks (sword and magic) will become useless. Thus, you need to attack the boss with Max when the core is blue and attack the boss with Monica when the core is red.
When the boss\' HP is near death, the core will emit a glowing light. The conditions will change. When the core is red, only melee attacks work while when the core is blue only range attacks work. Keep up the endurance and you will be able to defeat the boss within the time limit.
Finally, you will be granted with some pleasant story telling and the ending credits will roll. Monica will depart along with Elena and Agrias back to the future. Wait for the words \"The End\" to be shown...

Wait! There will be a prompt for you to create a start file for Chapter 8. You can choose to overrite your current file or save it on a new slot (provided that you have sufficient memory space). Save your game and you will be bought to the title screen.
C h a p t e r 8
````````````````````
T h e F o r g o t t e n A d v e n t u r e
=============================================
At the start of the chapter, you will find Maxmillian meeting up the Mayor. They are intending to reconstruct the Blackstone Railroad. However, you need to find some Zelmite located at the Zelmite Mines. The enterance to the mine can be found near the monument in Palm Brinks. You can also access it via the map selector. Before I carry on, there are something that you need to take note off:
- You cannot access to Kaznov Stonehenge & Moon Flower Palace dungeons anymore.
- You cannot access to the future as Max does not possess the Atlamillia anymore. Monica will not be in your party anymore...
- Make sure that you have an album saved file so that you can store 2 important photos.
- You will find Max carrying a golden pendant instead.
Equipment Check
------------------
- Make sure that Ridepod\'s equipment has equipped with the best items:
>> Weapon
- Nova Cannon III
Photos: Moon Column, Stove, The Sun
Items: 14 x Sticky Clay, 99 x Holy Element & 3x Holy Stone
Get this one until you have defeat a boss who have been your main arch-rival for the game...
- Nova Cannon IV
Photos: Flotsam Revived!* & Pot Torch & The Sun
Items: 1x Sun Stone, 5x Holy Stone, 15x Sticky Clay
You must have this in order to beat the game\'s final boss. Make sure that you have saved up a Sun Stone for this. Sun Stone can be found in one of the chests in this area. Get the scoop photo by taking a photo of Metal Flotsam.
>> Armor
Sun & Moon Armor
Photos: Electric Sesame, The Moon & The Sun
Items: 50x Light Element, 50x Holy Element & 50x Sticky Clay
This is the game\'s best torso part for Ridepod. Give Steve an additional 30 points of defense.
>> Leg
Propeller Leg
Photos: Cart, Fan & Windmill Feather
Items: 10x Silver Ball, 7x Wind Element
I would choose this as compared to the buggy. For the buggy, too many complicated controls is needed to move Ridepod. The Propeller Leg in my opinion is the best leg part for Ridepod.
>> Energy Pack
Triple-Urn Pack
Photos: Flower Chandelier, Light of Luna Stone & Pot
Items: 40x Sticky Clay, 40x Sturdy Rock & 20x Earth Element
This provides Ridepod with 300 hit points. The more HP is merrier.
>> All Shield Kits and Core has been upgraded to Master Grade Core
- Max\'s melee weapon should be either Grade Zero wrench or LEGEND hammer with all stats maxed out. I recommend the LEGEND as you can build up the stats to a higher limit as compared to the wrench.
- Max\'s gun should be upgraded to Supernova with 500 Atk points.
- Conserve your Ressurrection Powder unless you can make them.
- Stamina Drink is quite useful and it is time to use them.
- Always exit and save your game as the floors in this dungeon is quite hard if you are not well-prepared.
- Stocked up Premium Chicken (Ferdinand), Plum Rice Ball (Gordon), Mighty Healing (Dr. Dell) and Cheese (Granny Rosa).
- All Crystals can be bought from Rufio.
- Morton\'s Sundries sells all gems along with all coins except for Dark Coin and Indestructible Coin. Gems include all except for the Sun Stone and Moon Stone.
- Get all your support characters back to the train. Since Georama carries no importance in Chapter 8, it will be better to have all the members inside the Blackstone One.

At the start of the battle, there will be a cutscene and you will forced to fight a sub-boss comprises of 2 Vanguard-like enemies.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Keeper of the Loot
Burst One & Two
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
1 Nail Burst is already tough and you will be forced to fight 2 instead. Nail Burst has two kind of attacks - an elongated close range arm attack and a spin attack (melee). Thus it is advised to get away from it right? Make use of Ridepod\'s Nova Cannon III with Propeller Leg equipped. You should be move in circles when shooting lasers like hell. Hopefully you have a couple of Ridepod Fuel in your store. If Ridepod is destroyed, use Max\'s gun, which should do same amount of damage if maxed out.
After the battle, these boss drop Glidas and ABS. Make sure you collect them! You will be brought to the front of two treasure chests containing a Sun Stone and a Healing Coin. Do not spectralize the Sun Stone, you need it for Ridepod\'s strongest range weapon.
Once you are done, save your game and exit Zelmite Mines to replenish your stocks back to maximum (i.e. 20 Premium Chicken, 20 Plum Rice Ball, etc)
Return back to Floor 8-6: Crossroads of Destiny. Take the sun path this time.

This one is probably the hardiest dungeon up to now mainly due to 2 enemies - Faerie and Iron Spear. Try not engaged in close contact with Faeries (advanced version of Slyph) as they could not only cast magic, they could dealt combo melee attacks when in close range. Use Max\'s gun for a easy battle. Handle Iron Spear with Ridepod and dodge its homing missiles!

A new enemy is being introduced here. The Sand Dragon, an advanced version of the Killer Snake, can burrow underground and launch a leaping attack like its predessor. You can defeat it quite easily with Ridepod\'s Nova Canon III. Use the run-and-attack strategy on the Iron Spear.

In my opinion, it is possible to get the medal on first try except that you need to move against Iron Spear. While Iron Spear is firing homing missiles, dodging the missiles will be your priority as you can attack it later. For an easy battle, just use Ridepod for this floor.
Floor 8-16: Death End 2
------------------------
At the start of the battle, there will be a cutscene and you will forced to fight a sub-boss comprises of 6x Skeleton-like enemies
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Exploding Skeletal Dude
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
This one is quite easy if you have a 500 atk power LEGEND. Since those Rare Jackets can attack Max when they are in close range, you can use Max\'s charged attack, which deals a spin attack that attack all enemies surrounding Max. If Max\'s weapon has at least 200+ exorism point, you will be able to end the battle in no time. Luckily, Rare Jacket does not have a beam slash like Bone Lord. You may want to try throwing Holy Water at them...
Remember to collect your ABS and Glidas before proceeding to the chests. The 2 chests contains an Absorption Coin and a Moon Stone.
Once you are done, save your game and exit Zelmite Mines to replenish your stocks back to maximum (i.e. 20 Premium Chicken, 20 Plum Rice Ball, etc)

At the start of the battle, there will be a cutscene and you will forced to fight a sub-boss comprises of 2x Trigriff-like enemies
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Flappin\' Brothers
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
These 2 Sphinxes are hard. Their attacking style is similiar to Leogriff. They can shower you with energy spikes and swoop down with claw swipe. The best method to defeat them is to use Ridepod or you can get directly underneath them and use Monica with her sword slashing, which is quite risky if Monica get hit by their attacks.
Remember to collect your ABS and Glidas before proceeding to the chests. The 3 chests contain a Dynamite (key item), Poison Coin and Experience Coin
Once you are done, save your game and exit Zelmite Mines to replenish your stocks back to maximum (i.e. 20 Premium Chicken, 20 Plum Rice Ball, etc)

Expect a series of Magic crossfires. It would better to have Monica due to her Magic-Absorb Blade. If you use Max, make use of his charged attack to return the Wyrm\'s magical attacks. Take the Moon Path this time round.

Battleplant Squad
The Mandrakez
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Like the one against Rare Jackets, you can wipe them with Max\'s spin attack or Ridepod run-and-hit tactic. This one is quite easy as Monica\'s normal sword combo can hit them all. There are 5 of them. Each Mandora could causes harmful status ailment with its spit attack. The fighting style of the enemy is relatively similar to the Himarra.
Remember to collect your ABS and Glidas before proceeding to the chests. The 2 chests contain a Diamond each.
Once you are done, save your game and exit Zelmite Mines to replenish your stocks back to maximum (i.e. 20 Premium Chicken, 20 Plum Rice Ball, etc). Equip the Camera for Max, as an upcoming scoop...

Scoop Photo - Flotsan Revived!
Take a photo shot of Flotsam at
any point of the battle.
THIS IS THE ONLY CHANCE THAT YOU
CAN GET THIS SCOOP.
Flotsam has the ability to fly and drop bombs as he fly. Make use of Monica\'s homing magic. While he lands, use Monica\'s combo immediately. Once a combo is done, dodge and fire your magic until Flotsam comes down again. This battle can be quite easy if you use Ridepod. Max\'s hand gun works well. Flotsam can deliever a punch that deals damage that surround him, so watch out!
Make sure that you take the game\'s last scoop. You need it to defeat the final boss! After defeating Flotsam, there will be some cutscenes regarding the person who gives Flotsam this new unearthly power...
Build Ridepod the Nova Cannon IV and you will need the Sun Stone that you have found eariler in the dungeon for it. Once you are done, proceed to the next floor.

Spheda Prize: 1x Garnet
Believe it or not. This floor is extremely tough if you do not have Ridepod\'s Nova Cannon IV. Last Guardian is the strongest Masked Tribesman and it is really hard to beat unless you run to its back and whack it. However, normally they are quite close to \"snipers\" - Smiling Wolf. So make use of Ridepod to finish out the \"snipers\" first before fighting the last Guardian.
The subsequent floors are really the challenging dungeon floors of the game if you take the Moon Path. Likewise, you can move pass the area by taking the Sun Path and just completed 3 more stages to beat the game. As for the walkthrough, I would go for the Moon Path. If you take the Sun Path, please refer to Floor 8-34: \"Omen\" for more details.
Take the Moon Path.

This is another tough floor unless you have gotten Nova Cannon IV. Use Ridepod\'s range attack to attack the Cerbeus (the strongest versions of Statue Dog) and Krau Mauness (the strongest version of Sonic Bomber). Imps are damaging too but they are vulnerable to last attack. When they get close your character, stop firing and run away. Lock-on again and resume firing. Imps are the strongest versions of the Sylphs!

Watch out for Death Rope and Busy Moler. They have the ability to burrow underground like their predessors. Homing attacks such as Laser Arm IV and Monica\'s magic is pretty useful against them along with Max\'s spin attack (useful against Molers). As the Dead Rope (Killer Snake), use Ridepod. Bambamchoo and Mrs. Gourgon can cause status ailments with their projectiles. Make sure you have equipped a Anti-Petrify Amulet to guard against petrification.

Generally, shooting like mad with Ridepod is perhaps the best strategy for this floor. However, watch for Wraith\'s (Nightstalker type) homing fire ball and Iron Ghost (Pirate Eye type) cannon bomb. Make sure that Max is guarded against poison and petrification.

I like the cards. They are easy to beat and give you a lot of ABS & Glidas. This is perhaps the most ideal training ground for your character. Just charged up Max\'s attack will allow you to move through this floor without any sweat.

All the enemies here are strong and tough. They are capable of dealing 70 to 100+ hit points of damage. They will deal more when they are in pumped-up status (i.e. all rage counters have been used up). Spinning Saucer requires you to defeat it with a lot of hits, while Tiamat (dragon) has the capability of causing Stop and Thirst on your character with its attack. Bone King can does a beam slash that deal 70+ damage when not guarded. Quite a tough floor.

Floor 8-37: Zelmite Mine Depths

Upon reaching the floor, use the Dynamite at the pile of rocks which are blocking your path. Next you will finally find Zelmite along with the mastermind who have support Flotsam - Dark Genie. He is also the final boss for Dark Cloud 1...
F i n a l B o s s : D a r k G e n i e
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Preparations:-
Max >>
Right-hand weapon - LEGEND Hammer or Grade Zero Wrench
Left-hand weapon - Supernova
Ridepod >>
Nova Cannon IV, Sun and Moon Armor, Triple-Urn Pack, Propeller Leg, all shield kits equipped.
Item Equipment:
At least 10x Premium Chicken
At least 2x Ridepod Fuel
At least 1x Resurrection Powder
At least 10x Repair Powder
Camera
Rare Photos (not scoops)
--------------------------
In order to use this two photos:-
Zelmite Found: Take a photo of the blue ore (Zelmite) in boss battle background.
Mr. Big Shot\'s Shadow: Take a photo of giant Dark Genie
You need to take the photo and save them in album during the battle. The photos can be accessed into other save files as ideas in other saved files.
I suggest that you just need to use Max for this battle.
The boss has only 2 attacks and could sent a lot of smaller versions of Dark Genies to keep you occupied. The minimum dark genies could cause damage ranging from 50 to 60 hit points of damage and has projectile weapons like a Himarra. They tends to surround Max/Ridepod. The main boss, Dark Genie, the huge one is flying in the air can cause a beam blast that could instantly kill off Max if you are directly underneath it.
Strategy:
Use Ridepod and shoot your Nova Cannon IV like crazy at the big genie while playing catching with the small genies. There will come a point of them when Nova Cannon will deal \"No effect\". Just switch to Max and use his charged attack (not for too long or when the boss is just above you) and quick switch to Ridepod to flee and shoot again with lock-on. It just like run and gun strategy...
Once you have defeated the boss, congrats as you have completed Dark Cloud 2 \"once again!\"

Secrets
---------------------------------------------
The following secrets have been confirmed by me:-
Extras Menu
-------------
- Complete the game till Chapter 4 until you receive notifcation about Finny Frenzy and save your game. The Extra Menu from the main screen will become accessible. You can access Free Race to race your fish!
- Complete the game till Chapter 3. Talk to Mina (who is at the City Hall lobby) and you will be given the requirements to recruit her. Then you will be able access Spheda Practice Area from the Extras menu.
Chapter 8 - The Forgotten Adventure
--------------------------------------
To access into Chapter 8, you need to complete Chapter 7 and defeat the final boss. After the credits, you will be brought to save screen where you can save your game and create a Chapter 8 Start File. Note that you can use your previous save files. For beginning of Chapter 8, the characters playable are Max and Ridepod. You will be able to play Monica after 5 stages...
During Chapter 8, you will not be able to access to the future, Kaznov Stonehenge and Moon Flower Palace. Your train, Ixion will be replaced back with Blackstone One again.
The steps are:-
1) Get a Wrench from the cupboard located on the right side of the room. Hint: You need to go southwest off the screen and make a turning towards north. You will find a wooden cabinet along with a book on the table. Examine the table and you will get the \"Notebook\", which will allow you to joint down notes for recruiting NPCs later in the game.
2) Move towards the vacuum cleaner (placed on the table) & start work...
There will be few more cutscenes and Max seems to be late for the circus! Talk to the usher at the entrance of Circus. Hit Square and select the Circus Ticket from the item box. There will be a few more cutscenes. You need to get back your ticket...
Talk to everyone in the area except for the clown. Go and find a girl near the balloons cart. Talk to her and it will trigger a cutscene. Max will eventually recovers the ticket. Present the ticket and you will be allowed to be admitted into the circus.
There will be more cutscenes at the circus and another introduction battle involving Max begins. The key item \"Wrench\" has become \"Battle Wrench\", the default weapon for Max. Wreck the enemies. If you need healing, hit Triangle and choose \"Bread\" from your inventory. I would recommend you to equip all the Bread on Max\'s item holders.
There will be a few more cutscenes and it will marks the beginning of Chapter 1.

There will be a couple of cutscenes between Max and Donny. You will be given some time to take a breather or you can just talk to Donny & ask him about the underground sewer. Eventually, Max gets his ranged weapon - Classic Gun and a Help Receiver.
Once you are done, proceed down the ladder and head for the sewers.
Choose \"Yes\" to proceed to the next floor. By the way, you can activate the save menu with Triangle button & return back to the Sewer Entrance (where Donny is) with Square button

Here comes the dungeon part of Dark Cloud games. First of all, make sure you view the in-game help regarding dungeons. Donny will call Max and tells him on the requirements to clear this floor.

Beware of Froggy\'s breath attack as it could causes annoying status ailments such as Poison. If Max is poisoned, use a Poison Drink to restore the status.

This area is a bit more tricky due to flying enemies. For flying enemies, I recommend you to use Max\'s right-hand weapon - the gun to shoot them down. You can also hurl crates by pick them up with R1 and X and hit X to throw. If a crate hits a target, most of the enemies will be stunned. Thus allow you to unleash a combo where enemy is left unguarded and giving you a easier item.

Donny will make another call to Max - it is a nice reminder on upgrading your weapon due to stronger monsters. Upgrade the Cyclone and Smash attributes for Max\'s gun and wrench respectively if you have accumulated sufficient synth points.
Beware of Turtle and Nightstalker - the newly found enemies. Turtle has the ability of guarding and causing heavy damage with its head bump due to the Rage Counter. The backflip (back+X, with target lock -on the enemy) comes handly. Nightstalker has the ability to toss fireballs with homing capabilities at Max, thus making your life difficult. It can also do a devastating spin move. Dodge the fireballs and approach close to wreck heavy damage with Max\'s Wrench.
There is a new feature available - you will find a Channel Key from the chests in the dungeon. Channel Key allows you to excess the locked area in the current dungeon. The usage is the same as the Gate Key.

There is no way that Max can do any damage on the boss. Just dodge and dodge... A cutscene will trigger eventually.
Cedric has come to Max\'s rescue with a machine - Ridepod. However due to some technical faults, Max has to retreat...
Palm Brinks
``````````````
You will be back at the Repair Shop. Cedric tells Max that he will be paying the Mayor a visit while the task of making an Energy Pack for Ridepod is up to Max\'s hands. You will be taught on how to use the camera and Make Menu. Besides the camera, you will also receive another key item - Inside Scoops Memo.
TIP: Always equip the camera on Max\'s item holder. There are some important photo shots that can only BE TAKEN ONCE.
For details regarding the camera, please refer to Part 3 of the FAQ.
To make the Energy Pack, you need the following photos -
Photos Location to take photo shoot
````````` ``````````````````````````````````
Milk Can Opposite the streets, next to the Bakery Shop
Belt Focus your camera on Officer Blinkhorn\'s belt, who is standing at the entranceway of Police Station
Pipes Focus on the rooftop of Cedric\'s Repair Shop
Once you get the photos, return back the Repair Shop. Talk to Cedric.
Follow Cedric\'s instruction and navigate around the Make Menu. Now you have the idea & it is time to make the Energy Pack by getting materials for it. You need to visit Morton\'s Sundries (next to the door, you will find a pumpkin). Cedric will supplment you with 350 Glidas (the currency for the game)
Purchase 20x Scraps of Metal, 2x Hunk of Copper and 1x Thick Hide.
Before returning to Cedric, you may want to do some shopping at the shops of Palm Brinks.

* Donny who sells items is no longer selling them. If you visit Donny at the Sewer Entrance (via accessing the manhole located on the right of the Repair Shop), he will provide you with more scoops. There is also a mini treasure chest containing the Fruit of Eden. This item boosts Max\'s MAX Hit Points by 8.
Once you have purchased the materials & save your game at the Repair Shop and talk to Cedric. Follow the steps and select \"Energy Pack\" from Invention List. There will be a few more cutscenes and Max will be bought back to the Pump Room with Steve the Ridepod!

Strategy
`````````
You begin the battle with Max riding the Ridepod. Depress L3 button ( left analog stick) to switch to Max. Note that you cannot damage Linda with Max\'s weapons. Your objective is to nap the photo shot with Max. Linda seldom uses that attack but it seems to me that you can force her to use it by wacking on the elephant\'s hind legs. Take the shot at a comfort zone as Linda can do a rather heavy damage on Max. Therefore, it is advisble to stock up Bread prior to the battle.
Linda\'s has only 2 attacks, the tusk whip and vertical hind stomp. You can actually drive Ridepod forward and whip up the boss with its cannonball punches ^_^:). If you did not take the photo shot, it is advisible to restart this game.
After you have defeated the boss, proceed down the walkway and exit the Ridepod. Examine the door and you will be able to move out of the area.
Managing Ridepod TIPs:
Steve is a machine and its fuel will goes down as it wonders around in dungeons. To refuel, you need to approach Cedric or use an item called \"Ridepod Fuel\" which can only be obtained from chests/crates/ stones in dungeon.
To increase RIDEPOD\'s attack, movement or defense, you can get new parts from Cedric by talking to him and choose \"Upgrade Ridepod\" option.

The battles are getting tougher. In this dungeon, you will encounter Vanguard (a robot) which can only be defeated by Ridepod. You can switch between Max and Ridepod by depressing R3 button (right analog stick). While riding the Ridepod, its fuel will start to deplete as you move. To refuel, you need to get out of the battlefield and visit Cedric to refuel or use an item called Ridepod Fuel (obtained from braking crates or chests, which is random).

Chests in this area do not seem as simple as the previous ones. It may be empty, a bloody-trap, Happy Clown present or even Mimics. Watch out for the King Mimic as you need to defeat it with Ridepod. In my opinion, it is advisible to move around the field with Max and once you encounter an enemy such as Vanguard, switch to Ridepod and finish the enemy off.
Upon exiting the dungeon, visit Cedric\'s shop for refuel. At the entranceway of Cedric\'s Repair Shop, near the trash cans, you can find a mini-chest containing Potato Pie (increases Max\'s defense by 4). Head left from the Save Point and you will find another chest containing the Fruit of Eden (raises max HP by 8) near the wooden crates. Make some preparations as a boss fight is coming soon...

This boss fight is relatively easy except for getting the Scoop. Switch to Max. The boss will fire red balloons (i.e. bombs), which can be grab and hurl towards the enemy. It will cause the boss to fall and you can switch to Ridepod quickly for a quick attack!
The boss has a couple of attacks - 1) nose missile - two missile launches from the nose of the boss with homing capabilities. You need to take the scoop photo for this. 2) splash - the boss leaps into mid-air and comes with a huge splash. 3) red bombs - the boss fires giant red balls that explodes after a certain time lapse. These bombs can be grab and thrown at the boss itself! 4) shockwave - close-range attack for Halloween.
If you fight the battle for a while, the boss will unleashes Flotsam Balloon which has its own HP and Rage Counter. Defeat them with Max.

Max is finally on his way out of Palm Brinks. You will caught with Cedric who will brief Max about the evil being named Emperor Griffin. Max is going for a journey on Blackstone Ore (train) to restore back everything. In the controls room, a loud bang will be heard from outside. Cedric will ask Max to check it out. Save your game and exit. It is that Flotsam and a vehicle. A boss fight continues...

Please note that the vehicle can shift from left and right. Just lob the bomb at the boss. You just need three hits to finish off Flotsam.
There will be some more cutscenes and you will meet up with the red- haired boy who turns to be Monica, a woman from the Future. She will be part of your party...

You will be given more introduction about Monica and you will get 5 Armband Repair Powder for her armlet. To switch between Max and Monica, just depress the L3 button (left analog). Please note that you cannot switch from Ridepod to Monica. Anyway, the diagram below could help you to understand more about the L3 and R3 buttons more:-
Monica <--- L3 ---> Max <--- R3 ---> Ridepod
You have reach Sindain, the town of the Firbits and great tree, Jurak. However the origin point has been destroyed and you need the help of Firbits. You are now currently at Sindain Station.
Floor 2-0: Sindain Station
```````````````````````````
You will be introduced about the Support Character Features. You can get new support characters as you proceed onto the game. More details will be discussed under Part VII of the FAQ
The Non-playable characters (NPCs) that have joined your party are:-
1) Cedric - Repairs weapons, arm, refuel and make Ridepod\'s parts
2) Erik - Sell you gunpowder and make bombs
3) Bruno - Sell you ores and increase item aquisitions
Cedric in my opinion, will be currently your best NPC for the time being as having the ability to repair and refuel during dungeons. Erik could make you super bombs - which does 100+ damage to target! You can create 6 of these bombs and sell them for 900 Glidas - an easy option for quick money in the game. Please note as you spent the ability points, you need to sent them back to the train for them to recover (it takes some game time). To get back Palm Brinks (more places are being accessible), use the Move Feature. I will discuss more about in the later part of the walkthrough.
Away from the train, you can find a Save Point and a path that leads to Sindain.
Sindain
````````````````````````````
There are a lot of boulders, logs and trees in the vicinity. There is a Firbit\'s House and a Firbit. Attempt to enter the house and there will be a few more cutscenes. From the scenes, you will need to do the following objectives at the dungeon: Rainbow Butterfly Woods:-
1) Locate the 4 missing Firbits
2) Save Holly
Conda will give you a key item - Grape Juice, which will be essential for you to locate their lost friends.

For the first time, you will be able to use Monica. You can also use Max and Ridepod. Monica is a great attacker with her Magic Bessard, that has the ability to use magic. Magic has a homing capability, which makes Monica an easier character to use. Man-Eating Grass and Himarra has the ability to launch projectile weapons that could also cause status ailments along with some damage. Dodge these attacks and close up for a quick strike. Skeleton Soldiers are weak against Holy while plants are weak against Flame damage.
There are a few chances between dungeons in Rainbow Butterfly Wood.
The Gate Key has been replaced with \"Fairy Saw\" while Channel Key has been replaced with \"Slash Branch\". You will also find coin spots.

6 Synthesis Points for Max\'s Wrench
2x Hunter Crystal
2x Destruction Crystal
1x Wind Crystal
1x Sea Dragon Crystal
The enemies here are getting tougher. Pumpkinhead has the ability to use fire magic which can be absorb by using Monica\'s absorption sword. (See Part II for more details). Moler has the tendency to go undergound and you can only hit them once they have revealed themselves. The hardiest enemy is Tore which could summon Kotore (that self-explodes upon touching your characters). Wipeout the enemies with Ridepod\'s Barrel Cannon if you have it.

This is the first seal condition. The Red seal means that you can only use Monica. Max and Ridepod will be inaccessible unless you Attack and defeat all enemies in the area.
The enemies here are the same except for the Tortoise. The tortoise is relatively strong and you use of the skills mentioned in Part II of the FAQ. You need to do backflip to avoid being hit by the tortoise\'s headbutt attack. It is nearly impossible to satisfy the wipeout goal with Monica\'s magic... There is a 2nd method to defeat the tortoise, make use of the boulders found in the area and throw it at the enemy. It will cause the tortoise to be dizzy.
| #2-4 | Great Fish Swamp
There are no monsters here but a couple of quests that you need to fulfill. At the entranceway, there is a Save Point where you could save your game. Finally, Max & Monica have met up with the remaining Firbits. The one that is fishing say that he cannot abandon his friends there. That Firbit will say that he smells something good and ask you for something. Give him the Grape Juice. In exchange, he provides with a Fishing Rod and a bait (Mimi). Yeah, you can start to fish! Refer to Part IV for details about Fishing.
Head north & go past the bridge. There will be a swamp there. Facing the swamp, move left from there and go across the boulders. You wil be a pathway to a monster. A cutscene will follow and you find out that the monster (Master Utan) that a fish has caused the Firbit to behave weirdly. Take out your camera and take a shot of Master Utan for \"#30 Master Utan Scoop\". You will get 4x Poison Apple to your inventory.
Now head for the swamp (without the fishing rod) & a cutscene will follow. Monica suggest to Max to fish the thingy out. Since the \"Holy One\" likes Poison Apples, equip the fishing rod and Poison Apple as your bait. Once you see the red exclaimation mark, hit L3 and a cutscene will occur
Once you caught the \"Holy One\", you will learnt that King Mardan ( which the Holy One is known as) wants you to catch a Priscleen Fish to clean his body. Before leaving the Holy One, take out your camera and take a picture of it - \"#33 King Mardan Scoop\". THIS IS ONLY TIME YOU CAN TAKE THE SCOOP!
Priscleen breeds in clean pond. Equip the fishing rod & a bait (Mimi). Cast your reel where you can find lilies growing on the pond. If you lose the bait, you can get 5 more Mimi from the fishing Firbit. To fish, just hit X to cast the reel and wait for the red exclaimation mark to appear. Hit L3 (left analog stick) once you saw the sign. You enter into the fishing mode. Once in fishing mode, hit X to reel in and left analog stick based on the direction the arrows is pointing. For more details, refer to Part IV.
Return to King Mardan if you have caught a Priscleen. If you haven\'t take a photo of it, make sure you do it as it is the LAST chance tha you have. Give the Priscleen as you use Gate Keys in dungeons.
Finally, the Firbits are back to normal. Head to Sindain.
Sindain
`````````````````````
Head for the Firbit\'s House. You will come to know about Holly and mysterious Rainbow Butterfly. Thus, you need to achieve an aim - save Holly. There will be some more cutscenes where you will be introduced to the Firbit\'s tools of restoring origin points - Carpenterion.
The key point is not about Georama System but the Time Gate. There is a red portal located near the Withered Jurak Tree. Move your character over the portal and there will be cutscene of Max using his jewel to teleport to 100 years in the future. At the future (Jurak Mall), you will find a Firbit there. There are 2 tiny chests containing the Fruit of Eden & a Potato Pie in the region. Please note that places in future contains power-up items for your character. Make sure you visit them after fulfilling conditions under Analysis section of Georama Menu.

This is just a warm-up section prior to the boss fight. Defeat all enemies and recover the Geostone. Once you are done, exit. It is time to do some Georama building:-
---------------------------------------------
Sindain: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Getting Lafrescia Seed & Sundrops
---------------------------------------------
TIP: If you are short of Georama Materials, go to the rear of the locomotive and you will find Conda the Firbit who sells you all the necessary Georama Materials for this chapter.
The reason why you need to complete the Georama Conditions is that you need Jurak to give the Lafrescia Seed and Floral Monster Badge for the Rainbow Butterfly to appear, which allows Monica to transform into a Himarra and get Sundrops by using her transformed form and talk to another Himarra in dungeons 2-1, 2-2 and 2-6. The Lafrescia Seed andSundrops are essential to make the Rainbow Butterfly appear:-
After getting 4th Geostone, you will get a cutscene about Max saying to get someone who knew about trees - Gordon if you proceed to Sindain. Now make your way to Palm Brinks.
Step 1: Palm Brinks - Recruiting Gordon
------------------------------------------
Use the Move ability. Make your way cross the drawbridge (with the traffic lights). The left path leds to the pier where you can find the sealed railroad and Dr Dell\'s residence. Head right where you find the residences. Move across the large bridge until you reached a large posh house - that\'s Max\'s house!
Visit the house and you can find a Save Point there. Gordon will be standing near a tree in the garden. He says that he is feeling uneasy and request for some Holy Water. Give it to him if you have it in your inventory or you can buy it from Priest Bruno at the Church. Gordon will join your party as a support character!
Step 2
-------
Restoring the Forest Lake
--> Make the river at least fifteen units or more.
Build 20 units of River with Water Element. Place a lake of 5x3 grid in the middle of the land. For the remaining 5 units, wait first... Visit the future and you can get a Fruit of Eden, a Witch\'s Parafait & Potato Pie.
Step 3
-------
Restoring the Glowing Mushrooms
- Plant at least ten trees.
Plant at least 10 trees on Sindain. The trees can be scattered all over the place. I recommend you to build the hill first and place around 3x Thorn Trees & 1x Fruit Tree, while the 7 Thorn Trees in another area. Visit the future, you will find a chest near the mushrooms containing 4x Wind Crystals.
Step 4
-------
Restoring the Withered Tree
- Place Eye Tree 1 & Eye Tree 2 on near the lake.
- Place Nose Tree between Eye Tree 1 & Eye Tree 2.
- Surround the all three trees by a river.
The three significant trees must be placed in line with each one in a line.
Eye Tree 1 Nose Tree Eye Tree 2
Remember the previous 5 units of river that I tell you to place? You need to get them circling these 3 trees. You will find 2 Fruit of Eden and a Witch Parafait in the future.
Step 5
-------
Revive Elder Jurak
- The Withered Tree must be restored.
- The Forest Lake must be restored.
- Gordon resides in Sindain.
You must satisfy step 2 and step 4 conditions. Build a wooden house or a straw hut above the hill and place that house near one of the trees. Switch to character mode. Move towards the house and attempt enter, you will be given an option of moving people in... Move Gordon in!
Basically when you statisfy a Georama Condition, there will be an icon box that states \"something has happened in the future\". This means the place in the future (Jurak Mall) has changed. Once you head there, there will be a cutscene between Max, Monica and the Elder Jurak. You will be given some clues regarding Emperor Griffon and the Rainbow Butterfly. You must plant the Lafrescia Seed somewhere and make it bloom by using Sundrops. To get Sundrops, you must talk to a Himarra...
How?
Step 6: Recruiting Adel
-----------------------------
Restoring the Tailor Shop
- Elder Jurak must be revived.
- Adel resides in Sindain.
- 30 Culture Points must be obtained.
The Tailor Shop will sell you some important items such as Gift Capsule and the Floral Badge. Now you need to locate Adel and make a new house for her (preferred a straw house, since she was flexible). Proceed back to Palm Brinks and make your way to Max\'s house. Make your way to the kitchen. Head the stairs which will leads to the Servant\'s Room. Adel has lost confidence in herself. You need to help her gain her confident in making clothes. First of all, you need to give her a Hunk of Copper, Thick Hide and Sturdy Cloth, which all of them can be bought from Conda. Buy them and talk to Adel, choose to give all of them to her. Exit the area and return back to her again. She will give you a new set of clothes and join your party. She give me the Green Overalls when I choose as the Denim Overalls as Max\'s default clothing.
There is a condition is rather hard to satisfy - Culture Points. To gain more culture points, you need to spice your dull city. In other words, place more objects there such as more houses, fences, paint your houses, etc. If you talk to Adel, you can get fruits, which could cause status ailments or cure them. Purchase some Heart-Throb Cherry and Tasty Water, you will need them.
Visit the future. You will be able to access to the Tailor Shop and you will get to purchase the Floral Badge for 500 Glidas. Get it. Now with the badge, Monica can transform into a Himarra! For more details about Monster Transformation, please refer Part II.
Now proceed to a dungeon where you can find a Himarra (a plant with yellow petals). Dungeons are Floor 2-1, 2-2 and 2-6. Transform Monica into a Himarra and talk to Himarra. It will give you Sundrops. To transform (make sure you are using Monica) depress the R3 button.
Getting more badges:-
To get more badges, you need to make use of Gift Capsules (bought from Tailor Shop for 400 Glidas) or Julia if you have gotten her. Equip it if when 3 items as gift and throw the Gift Capsule at the target. Defeat it with Monica and you will get the badge!
As you complete more Georama Conditions, make sure you visit the future, you will find more Fruits of Eden/Witch Witch\'s Parfait/Potato Pie, which boosts the characters\' HP and defense. These items will be found scattered in future which also applies for other completions.
Save your game.
| #2-11 | Rainbow Falls
At the center of the Falls, you will find a pond where Max felt that he should drop something on it... Drop the Lafrescia Seed and Sundrops to make Lafrescia Flower bloom. Take a picture from the bottom for \"#34 Lafrescia Stem Scoop\". Examine the white thread and it will automatically trigger a cutscene with the Rainbow Butterfly!

Scoop Photo - Rt. Butterfly Scoop
Take a photo shot of Rainbow
butterflies make their convergence.
THIS IS THE ONLY TIME YOU CAN TAKE
THE PHOTO
Strategy
`````````
First of all, you will not be able to attack the Rainbow Butterfly when it is merged as one. The Rainbow Butterfly comprises of 7 butterflies - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. As the flower is the source of power for the butterfly, hit the flower\'s tentacles to force it to close. Meanwhile watch out for the Rainbow Butterfly\'s beam and crystal ball attacks, which could cause status ailments.
Once you are done, the Rainbow Butterfly will proceed to the center of the flower and split into 7 smaller butterflies. To defeat the boss through you need to defeat them one by one. Monica is a good option for the boss likewise for Ridepod, if you have the Barrel Cannon. Any running, gunshot & weapons slashing sounds will alarm the butterflies. I suggest that you hit the violet butterfly first. The butterflies will fly back to center spot of the flower & do their convergence again. Take a shot and you will get Scoop #53! This is ONLY TIME that you can take the PHOTO SCOOP!
Deal damage to the tentacles again and the butterflies will split. Use Ridepod\'s Barrel Cannon to kill the 7 individual butterflies, you need to defeat in order of the colors of the rainbow. Once you are done, you have defeated the boss! You will be given the Teal Envelope to present to the Firbits.
Sindain
----------
There will be a cutscene between our heroes and the Firbits at the house. A sad story...
Make your way to Jurak and you will be notified off a great sage named Crest who resides in Starlight Temple built at the Balance Valley. However, the origin point has been destroyed too...
Once you are done, you can talk to Cedric to proceed to Balance Valley, a new dungeon.
---------------------------------------------
Additional Steps for Georama Conditions - 100% for Sindain
---------------------------------------------
These steps are optional but you can get better goodies if you do these. There will be a cutscene where you get Jurak Gun for Max, which will be very useful for future battles. To get that, you need to complete 100% for the Georama Conditions. You can also get a scoop photo by taking a picture of all three stores - #26 \"Hmm... Jurak\" Scoop
Step 7: Recruiting Aunt Polly
-----------------------------
Restoring the Eatery
- Elder Jurak must be revived.
- Polly resides in Sindain.
- 40 Culture points must be obtained.
To recruit a new person, that means you need to build a new house. Make a Wooden House. Now proceed to Palm Brinks. Talk to Aunt Polly. He will ask you to deliver 20x Crunchy Bread to Morton. Visit Morton at Morton\'s Sundries (the one marked with a pumpkin logo). He will ask you to make a trip to his house at the residence area. There will be a garden of pumpkins within his house area. Examine the door, there will be a note for him from Ferdinand. Talk to him and Morton say that you can return the Crunchy Breads to Polly as the party is called off. Visit Polly and she will join you! By the way, a new assistant will be taking charge of the Bakery in Palm Brinks.
Return back to Sindain and place Polly inside the house. Gain 40 more Culture Points by doing some fence and painting. I recommend you to make the Watermill near the \"lake\", some pots, cart, shed near the houses.
Step 8
-------
Restoring Elder Jurak\'s Branch
- At least 10 trees need to be planted.
- Place a fence around the Firbits\' House.
You need a lot of Rolling logs for these. Make use of the wooden gate so that you can make an opening for you to access the Firbits\' house. Once you make a fence around, there will be branch that leads to the upper floor of Jurak at Jurak Mall (future).
Step 9
--------
Restoring the Golden Eggs
- Elder Jurak\'s Branch must be restored.
- Place a resident inside of a Straw House.
Undoubtly, you have satisfied this condition because you have placed Adel inside the Straw House. Just simply go up the golden eggs and you will get Golden Paint, which is essential to recruit Parn! Get Parn to join in by visiting his house. There is a ladder in his house that leads to an area where you can get 10x Purple Paint. Give Parn the Golden Paint. He and his \"wife\" - Julia will join your party! You can purchase new paint from Parn! You can get a photo scoop \"#25 Find the Golden Egg! Scoop\"
Step 10
--------
Restoring the Weapon Shop
- Elder Jurak must be revived.
- Milane resides in Sindain.
- Elder Jurak\'s Branch must be restored.
- 50 Culture Points must be obtained.
Most of the conditions have been satisfied already except you need to get Milane to reside in Sindain. Milane is located at the Weapon Shop. Visit her and switch to Monica. She will give you a Gladius and ask you to build up the weapon by 2 levels. The weapon should undergo the following process:-
Gladius -> Cliff Knife -> Chopper
--------- gain 2 levels -- gain 3 levels
Once you are done, place Monica inside a wooden house near other houses. She dislike staying alone. Once you are done, revisit Jurak Mall (future). There is a chest near the ladder leading to the Eatery containing the Garnet Jewel.
Balance Valley
-----------------
Once you are done, proceed to Balance Valley Station. There is a Save Point in the area. Move across the bridge and head for left of the deserted station - You will be able to access the plateau. There is a house near the area. Enter the house. You will find an owl along with a girl (Lin) who is very sick. Max told the owl that there is a doctor that resides in Palm Brinks. Proceed to Dell\'s Clinic which is on the left area of the Church. Enter the Clinic and Dr. Dell will join your party! Return back to the house, Dr. Dell will says that no medicine could cure the girl\'s illness. Monica says that there is a legendary cook called \"Lau Chao\" who resides in Starlight Temple\'s Lao Chao\'s Bistro who could make a \"Miracle Dish\" that could cure Lin.

T h e S a g e W h o B e c o m e a S t a r
=============================================
At the beginning of the chapter, you will come know more about
Balance Valley. There is a lot of difficulty in placing objects for
Georama as you need to balance out all the 4 plateaus. Make use of
Georama mode to move your cursor near the save point north off
Lin\'s house. From the save point, head further north and you are
heading towards the game\'s dungeon - Starlight Canyon.
If you want, I recommend you to collect some badges for Monica. More
details can be found under Part II - Dungeon Basics.

The battle can be easily won by using Ridepod. Ridepod\'s Barrel Cannon can shot these Gemrons with at ease. You should have not much difficulty in completing this floor. Upon defeating all enemies, the blue seal will be broken.
All the monsters here use range attacks and you need to use the Fwd + X or charged attack to hit them. You can make use of Max\'s gun for easy damage or throw a boulder to stun them and hit them with the wrench.
Barga\'s Valley

There is nothing much that you can do at this point of time. Thus return back to the floor entitled \"Elephant Army in Valley\". Revisit that floor and exit via the Moon Exit.

This battle is quite easy as you have met most of the enemies before. The only difficulty is that you cannot heal Max or Monica, even Ridepod. Since all of the enemies do not cause status ailments, you just need to be more careful in close combat using Max or Monica. It is quite good to have Dr. Dell as your support character for his Cure ability. Defeat Golem and Elfas with Ridepod while other enemies with either Monica or Max.

You need to defeat the Dragon to get Giant Meat (the gate key). Dragon does not heavy damage and could also causes Stop with these attacks. Its ability to shot fireballs is an attack that you should also watch out for. Equip Max with a Non-Stop Amulet helps a lot for these dungeon.
Stop will causes the affected character to be stunned and vulnerable for all incoming attacks. Thus, make sure you are prepared for it...
Yorda\'s Valley
----------------
You cannot move any more further. Max is getting a bit more worried about Lin. It is time to start some Georama Building.
---------------------------------------------
Balance Valley: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Restoring Lao Chao\'s Bistro
---------------------------------------------
Wonder why this place is called Balance Valley? The place is divided into 4 plateaus. The plateaus must be balance in order to resume any building. In other words, you need to place your objects carefully. If the weight for 1 plateau is too heavy, the whole plateau will be lower than other 3 plateaus. Get the idea?
Step 1: Restoring Prayer Site, Suspension Bridge, Starlight Temple & Sacred Gate
---------------------------------------------
First of all, plant 15 trees along the plateau. You may be running out of Forest Dew due to your inactive participation at Sindain. You need to replenish your supplies from Conda. Plant them one by one on each plateau. One of the plateaus can have 6 while the remaining 9 trees separated evenly among the remaining 3 plateaus. Build 1 brick house and a Chinese Stand. Place them in a manner that the plateaus remained balance.
Return to Balm Brinks. You need to recruit Ferdinand and Stewart. Both of them can be found in Max\'s house. Save up 2000 Glidas and a Roasted Chestnut before heading there. Roasted Chestnuts can be obtained randomly inside Rainbow Butterfly Woods (Chapter 2 dungeon).
Recruiting Stewart
--------------------
At the entrance, talk to Stewart as Max. He will tell his young master that he need money for bid for an item he wants. Give the money. Once he got the money. Exit the house and re-enter again. Talk to him and he will give back 600 Glidas.
Recruiting Ferdinand
----------------------
Proceed to the kitchen and talk to Ferdinand who standing near the stove and cooking table. Give him the Roasted Chestnut, he will join you party!
With the 2 personnel recruited, proceed back to Balance Valley. Place Ferdinand at the Chinese Stand and Stewart inside the house. You can get new shoes for Max from Stewart and Premium Chicken (an item that restores HP back to max) from Ferdinand\'s ability - Cook.
Visit the future and you can find chests scattered around the temple containing Fruit of Eden, Potato Pie and Witch\'s Parafait
Step 2: Restoring Sacred Torch & Crystal Prayer Site
---------------------------------------------
Build 4 Pot Torches and a Church. Next build them without causing the plateaus to lose its balance. Proceed to Palm Brinks. Cross the drawbridge and head for the Church. Talk to Priest Bruno. He join you if you blow out all the candles...
Just stand next to the candle and blow it off. According to the character recruitment FAQ done by Otacon120 , you can blow off the candles by R1, L3, R5, L7. R stands for right while L stands for Left. The numbers are count from the bottom. For the diagram, please refer to his FAQ.
Once you are done, build the Church and 4 pot torches surrounding the church. Move Priest Bruno inside the new church. You can get some status ailment restoring items such as Medusa\'s Tears (cures petrification) and Soap (cures gooey). Holy Water can also be bought here. Place 4 Pot Torches surrounding the church\'s four corners.
Revisit the future and collect your bonus gifts from chests.
Step 3: Restoring Lao Chao\'s Bistro and accumulate 30 Culture points
---------------------------------------------
You just need to get 30 culture points to get access to Lao Chao\'s Bistro. Place a Star Lamp at Stewart\'s brick house. Build another house and paint that house purple. Provide some metal fencing for these 2 houses. You should be able to hit 30 culture points without much difficulty.
Future - Starlight Temple (Lao Chao\'s Bistro)
=============================================
Finally, you have restored the Bistro\'s Origin point. Once you reach there, you will have a cutscene and our heroes met Lao Chao. However in order to make the miracle dish, he needs a flower - White Windflower obtained in the present time. Head for Barga\'s Valley.
Make sure you check for treasure chests before departing from the future.
Floor 3-13 - Barga\'s Valley (Introduction to Spheda)
---------------------------------------------
At the valley, there will be a cutscene between our heroes and the condor, Barga. There is a time distortion at her nests and you need to close the hole up. You will be introduced to the game of Spheda. Refer to Part IV for Spheda Basics or the in-game help. You will be given some help.
First you need to get something to wack the time sphere. There is a key item \"Handy Stick\" found near the watery area surrounding the nest. Pick it and equip it. Examine the ball to begin playing Spheda.
TIP:
To hit the black hole. Aim for the hill on the left hand side of the nest. Use its reflection to hit the Black Hole.
If you cannot do it, choose to quit and Monica will did it for you. Once the Black Hole is removed, Barga thanks your heroes who spotted the White Windflower and receive it as a gift. You will also received a spheda club - Turkey (upgradeable) from Barga. From this time onwards, conditions marked with ??? will be replaced with Spheda. You will be play this mini-game upon eliminate all enemies in that dungeon and you will be given an opportunity to hit Spheda!
Head back to the Future and give White Windflower to Lao Chao, who eventually makes the \"Miracle Dumplings\". Proceed back to Balance Valley and give it to Lin. Lin will recovers and seem to lost her memories about her master, Crest. Save your game and head for Yorda\'s Valley.
BTW, Lin will be your permanent support party member until you reaches the lighthouse.
Floor 3-10 Yorda\'s Valley
-----------------------------
Make your way towards the Yorda Tree & it will trigger a cutscene where Lin have some memories with her master. Suddenly a monster comes out from Lin\'s memory - it is a Memo Eater and you have to fight it!

Surprisingly the battle is EXTREMELY EASY or perhaps my Max\'s wrench is too strong! The boss has a body weight press that deal heavy damage and a breath weapon that does damage + Poison and Gooey. By the way, do not forget to snap a shot of it. This is your last chance for this particular scoop!
Once the battle is over, Lin recovers most of her memories. Head eastwards from the tree and you will be able to exit the area. Next proceed back to Balance Valley.
---------------------------------------------
Balance Valley: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Restoring Tool Shop
---------------------------------------------
This step is simple. Since Lin has agreed to help your party, you have already satisfy the condition. First of all, you need to get Parn. To get Parn, you need to get Golden Paint which can be obtained from Golden Eggs in Jurak Mall.
Restoring the Golden Eggs
- Elder Jurak\'s Branch must be restored.
- Place a resident inside of a Straw House.
Undoubtly, you have satisfied this condition because you have placed Adel inside the Straw House. Just simply go up the golden eggs and you will get Golden Paint, which is essential to recruit Parn! Get Parn to join in by visiting his house. There is a ladder in his house that leads to an area where you can get 10x Purple Paint. Give Parn the Golden Paint. He and his \"wife\" - Julia will join your party! You can purchase new paint from Parn! You can get a photo scoop \"#25 Find the Golden Eggs Scoop\"
Place Parn inside the house that painted purple (he likes purple as you can get purple paint from his house). If you haven\'t place the Star Lamp, make sure you do it now. Proceed to the future and the Tool Shop will be opened. There will be a cutscene between Max and Monica about the powers of a Starglass. Buy it for 500 Glidas (I have forget the price, duh ^_^:). You should be able to find a chest containing the Emerald Gem outside the tool shop.
Once you got the Starglass, it is time to move on...

Make sure that you have purchased the Starglass. Once you reach the lighthouse, there will be a short cutscene. At the entranceway, there will be an indication that you need to place the Starglass.

Take a photo shot of the flying
battleship - Death Ark at the
background while fighting Evil
Flames as Max.
The battle will be divided into 2 separate battlefields. Max will be fighting the Evil Flames which will be harming Lin while Monica will go one-on-one against Gaspard, her father\'s murderer. Make sure you have equipped at least 10 Bread for Monica on her item slot so that you can use it with Square button when you need it. Gaspard can deal a chain combo with his sword but most of them can be blocked. Like Monica, he could also use Magic. Just simply wait for a stun moment before you launch all your strikes on Gaspard. Mid-way through the battle, you will be switch to Max. Seize the opportunity to take a photo shot of the Gaspard\'s flying battleship and handle those evil flames with Ridepod\'s Barrel Cannon. You can finish each of them with a single hit! Just defeat them all and the scene will switch to Monica where you could resume the fight. If you miss the Flying Battleship Scoop, there are 2 more chances coming in the next few chapters.
Once you knock Gaspard\'s life to 1/2, you play as Max to knock off all the flames. Next, you need to knock Gaspard\'s life to 1/4 and Max need to fight the flames for a 2nd round. After Max has extinguished all the flames, you will be allowed to defeat Gaspard.
After some cutscenes, you will find out the truth behind the past. Now with the Moon Crystal and Lighthouse restored, re-visit the future.

Additional Steps for Georama Conditions - 100% for Balance Valley
---------------------------------------------
You will meet up with Madame Crest (you know who she is...) and your next destination is Veniccio. You will be given a Serpent Slicer if you complete 100% Georama for Starlight Temple.
To complete 100% Georama, you need to:-
- Recruit Sheriff Blinkhorn. Sheriff\'s residence must be surrounded with fencing.
- Place a star lamp on one of houses.
The star lamp must be place on one of the houses. It is on the rear of the house.
Recruit Sheriff Blinkhorn
----------------------------
This one is tough. You need to move from the Police Station of Palm Brinks to the boat found at Palm Brink\'s Lake (where you find Fabio) and return back to the station within 2:01 secs. It sounds impossible but you can do it.
You need to make use of right analog stick to rotate the camera slightly so that Max will be taking a shorter distance. You may want to recruit Fabio first before you decide to recruit this person.
Shortcut Route from Police Station to the Boat at the lake
---------------------------------------------
- Move across from the Police Station towards the drawbridge.
- Take the left-hand path from the Church (make use of right analog stick to rotate the camera)
- Cross the small forest until you see the Monument and the deserted tunnel. Take the right path of the Monument. You will find a path that leads to the lake
- At the lake, cross the bridge that located right from Dell\'s Clinic and you will find Fabio along with the boat. Examine the boat and end the message quickly. Rush your way back to the Police Station
- Tap X before you reach the Police Station to initate the conversation with Blinkhorn as soon as possible.
It take me quite a while to recruit Blinkhorn. He will typically shows you the monsters data that you can get from Monster Notes.
Recover some Fruits of Eden and power boosting items before leaving the Moon Crystal Area. By the way, take a snap of the Moon Crystal, which is also a scoop photo.
The Journey to Veniccio Station
-----------------------------------
Once back at Balance Valley Station, talk to Cedric and you will begin your next journey to Veniccio! At the station, proceed to enter Veniccio. Max will be enjoy some shades. There is a cave entrance nearby and Monica asks Max to check it out. You will be given the chance enter Pau\'s house. Inside you will find Pau and his sea dragon (Shiguru), Shingala. However it leaves the house and you need to head into the section\'s dungeons - Ocean Roar\'s Cave to save it back!

Veniccio: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Save Shingala!
---------------------------------------------
Step 1: Restore the Lab Foundation
-----------------------------------
As Veniccio is a seaside shore, you cannot build buildings or trees directly on water. Make some Piers and place at least fifteen of them. Build 4 Iron Houses and 4 Shop Boats. Place a Shop Boat next to each house. Paint the house - a blue, green, purple and red.
Step 2: Recruit Claire
------------------------
Return back to Rainbow Butterfly Woods. Take a photo of Lafrescia Stem. Do not discard the photo. Proceed to Claire\'s house, at the area where you find Parn\'s and Morton\'s House. Go upstairs and talk to Claire as Max. Present her the photo and she will join your party. Return back to Veniccio and place her inside the Red Iron House.
Future: Luna Lab #1 - Meeting Osmond
=====================================
With all these, make your way up the wooden stands that leads to Veniccio Station. You will find the Time Gate. Visit it and you will be at Luna Lab! Head for Luna Lab 1 (red). Inside the lab, you will meet up with the chief scientist Osmond who will give you an Electric Worm and an idea of building an aquarium for you to feed the worm to the fish.
Getting the Aquarium
----------------------
To build aquarium, you need to get photos of the following:-
- Fountain: There is one at the Town Square, left from Police Station in Palm Brinks
- Wooden Box: At the alleyway left from Cedric\'s Workshop
- Window: You can get it from Clarie\'s house
Choose Make and join these 3 photos to get invention card for Aquarium.
To build the aquarium, you need to have 5x Rolling Logs, 4x Glass Material and 15x Water Element. These items can be bought from Conda.
Next, you need to have a fish. Just pop in one in the fish tank and choose \"Feed Fish\" from the Aquarium menu. Feed Electric Fish to the fish. Now the lure is done, you will be able to save Shingala! Save your game first before heading for...
(PS: Do not forget to collect power-up items such as Fruit of Eden, Potato Pie and Witch\'s Parfait for your characters)

Scoop Photo - Puppet Shingala Take a photo shot of the mind- controlled Shingala. THIS IS THE ONLY TIME YOU CAN TAKE PHOTO.
You should be fight this battle as Max. Shingala has two attacks - head swing which could knock Max off his feet and Frost Breath. Frost Breath is a range weapon that does heavy damage. Take a photo of Shingala with the mind-controlled device. Once you got that, pay attention to the battlefield. There is a yellowish object floating around the area right? That\'s the fish that you have fed with Electric Worm. Just attack Shingala (do not kill, the game will be over if you do that) and wait for its head to fall on the position that you can throw the fish into its mouth. Once it is stunned, grab the fish and throw it at the mouth of Shingala. (It is the same way that you grab objects in other dungeons)
Veniccio: Pau\'s House
-----------------------
Finally, Shingala is back to normal but it is still severely wounded. You need to get some medicine from other Shigura. But how are Max and Monica go to communicate with the Shiguras?
---------------------------------------------
Veniccio: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Find a cure for Shingala\'s Wounds!
---------------------------------------------
Step 3: Recruit Donny
------------------------
Restoring Luna Lab 2
- Luna Lab Foundation must be restored.
- Make an Iron House and paint it Blue.
- Donny must live in the Blue Iron House.
- Place the Blue Iron House near the Shop Boat.
To do this, you need to access to Luna Lab 2. First of all, you need to recruit Donny. Donny can be recruited by getting 2 coins - Dark Coin, and an Indestructible Coin. These can be obtained from dungeon floors in Underground Channel (Palm Brinks) or Rainbow Butterfly Woods (Sindain). You can also buy these coins from Tailor Shop at Jurak Mall of the future if you have satisfied the condition.
Once Donny joins you, place him inside the blue iron house. Once you have done this, proceed to the future:-
There will be a cutscene when you enter the 2nd lab (blue lab). You will meet up with another scientist (Dr Nobbs). He will give you the translation device - Shell Talkie which allows you to converse with adult Shigurus. There is nothing much to do except to get more Geostones until you reached the Shiguru Village.
BTW, do not forget to visit the Cave of Ancient Murals and take a photo of the murals for a scoop! Move across the bridge to access to the next area...

At the start of the scene, there will be a cutscene when you will be introduced about Magic- Absorb Blade. Monica can absorb magic from enemies and use it as her weapon. To absorb magic, just hold L1. Note that you can only stock up 1 kind of magic. You will find orbs appearing on the left hand side of Monica\'s sword icon. This indicates the number of magic that you have stocked up. Sea Tortoise is rather tough as you need to upgrade Smash ratings for Monica\'s sword to deal more damage.

Floor 4-16 Shigura Village
=============================
At the village, use your Shell Talkie to communicate with the Shiguras. There are lots of them. You can only communicate with adult Shigura (they are larger in size than baby Shigura). Talk to the brownish one and you will get a cutscene. Eventually, you will receive the key item \"Secret Dragon Remedy\". Return back to Veniccio and proceed to Pau\'s house (the cave entrance). Use the medicine on Shingala and a cutscene will trigger. The Shigura village is under attack by the flying battleship - Death Ark!
Save your game and equip the camera for Max. Proceed to Shigura Village. After a short confrontation with Griffon\'s henchman, you will need to fight Dr. Jaming and a pack of controlled Shiguras!

Max /Monica will be surrounded by the Shiguras and Dr. Jaming will hovering in the area. If you haven\'t gotten the scoop photo for the flying batteship, make sure you take it now along with Dr. Jaming\'s.
Your objective is to make use of the controlled Shigura to hit Dr. Jaming. It is impossible to aim at Dr. Jaming. Thus you need to hit the Shiguras (but remember this: do not kill them!). Dr. Jaming does not have any attacks, he just commands the Shiguras to attack you. If you hit a Shigura, it will stun temporarily and raise its head high. If Dr. Jaming is flying above that Shigura, the Shigura\'s head will hit Dr. Jaming and thus damage the boss! However, the Shigura has their own attacks too. Watch out for this!
After a short hussle, Dr. Jaming will defeat and Gaspard leaves him there! However Shigura does not attack Dr. Jaming instead saves him... After a couple of teary scenes, you will depart with Shingala. Now your objective is complete Luna\'s Central or in other words, get 100% Georama for Veniccio.

Veniccio: Reconstructing Origin Point

Surprisingly, Veniccio is quite easy to complete except for accumulating Culture Points. Build 8 Luna Stone Lights help a lot in this Georama area. Build an iron stand with some accessories. Build the Windmill in center of pier that you have build. Place some Mailboxes or Iron Sheds to accumulate Culture Points. Eventually, you will accumulate in no time. Once you done, proceed to the future.
Central Luna Lab
-----------------
There will be a lot of chests scattered around in the vicinity. Make sure to look for them. Upon 100% completion, Max will receive the Nova Cannon (a range weapon for Ridepod). Take a shot of the Emblem located above the Central Lab. Note that chests are also located inside the buildings! So open your eyes wide! Enter the main lab and there will be a cutscene. Max meet his mother and you need to proceed to Mt Gundor and restores Pazno\'s origin point!
With a new objective in hand, it is time to proceed to Mt. Gundor and the town of Heim Rada.

Spheda Prize: 5x Treasure Chest Key
Remember those giantic trees that you have encountered in Sindain. Steam Tore and Steam Kotore are stronger versions of Tore. Wind & Thunder Gundron are hard to defeat but you can deflect their energy balls with your weapon or charged up attack. This floor can be quite tough due to the Red Seal. Make use of Monica\'s Magic Absorb Blade acquired in Chapter 4 to defeat the enemies here. If the battle is too difficult for you, buy a Seal-breaking Scroll from Morton\'s Sundries in Palm Brinks and use it from the menu. If you use the scroll, make sure that you defeat all the enemies or you will waste the money that you spent to buy it. There is also an area key - Stone \"T\" which allows you to access locked areas within the dungeon.

This is one of the most frustrating floors for me. The Gundrons fire their projectiles like crazy against you and you need to make use of Max\'s charged attack to repel the attacks and prevent them from standing up. Ridepod\'s Nova Cannon can be proved to be a high blast for you in this area. Quite easy if you use Ridepod or Monica\'s magic.

Mount Gundor Peak
================================
At the area, you will find a cutscene. The large structure firing out fire embers is the Fire Squall. (Take a photo of that, it is a scoop!) Now you need to do some Georama work to get some help to remove that thing otherwise, you will have problem in building the town. Embers thrown out from Fire Squall has caused wood and hay objects to be burned! Thus, you need to destroy it...
---------------------------------------------
Heim Rada: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Get help to deal with Fire Squall!
---------------------------------------------
To do this, you need to build a lot of things. First of all, get the following objects:
- 4x Brick Houses
- Multiples \"Block 2\" stacked up 3 blocks high and place one of the houses on top of it.
- Give one of the houses a chimney
- 1x Generator
- 10x Pots
- 1x Windmill
- Place a Great Cane and Work Arm on one of the houses.
- Place iron fencing for the brick houses on lower floor.
Your objective is get 70 Culture Points for all these objects. If you have insufficient materials or cash, train up to get more cash and purchase materials from Conda.
Step 1: Build a block area of 3 blocks high
---------------------------------------------
This is the toughest site to build. You need to link up around 10+ Block 2 and Block 1(s) to create a wall area so that you place a brick house on top of it. Avoid building objects that are vulnerable to fire. They will burned once you returned from the future, thus giving you less culture points.
Step 2: Move in your friends - Cedric, Erik and Borneo in
---------------------------------------------
They resides in this town. You can actually guessed that Cedric stays here as Erik and Borneo are on close terms with him. Place a fencing around the 3 houses on the lower level. Place the generator, windmill and pots as you like. Note that crane and work arm can only be placed on houses. Erik prefers to stay near the windmill.
Do some painting. If the points are insufficient, try to build some Mailboxes or anything that will not burned easily.
Once you are done, make your way to the future - Gundorara Workshop
There will be a cutscene. There is a teleporter which could teleport you to all sides of the gigantic workshop. You need to find the Workshop Elevator to get to the 2nd floor. Make sure to open your eyes in searching for chests containing power-up items. At the 2nd floor, there will be another cutscene where Max gets a key item - Time Bomb given to you by Garek. Once you are done, go back to the present and save your game. Return back to Mount Gundor Peak.
Floor 5-12 Mount Gundor Peak
=============================
Proceed to the Fire Squall (remember to take a photo of it, it is a scoop!). Examine the doorway and you will be able to place the Time Bomb there. This followed by some cutscenes and eventually Monica will fight Gaspard and Max needs to destroy the flying battleship - Death Ark.

THIS IS THE LAST CHANCE THAT YOU
CAN TAKE THE PHOTO
Max\'s gun is pretty useless against a gigantic battleship like that. You need to make use of Ridepod\'s Barrel Cannon (it would be better if you make a better one via Make menu). The battleship has 2 major attacks - cannon balls and machine fire. The cannon ball attack is similar to the Pirate Tank that you have encountered in Ocean\'s Roar Cave. The ball will explodes upon hitting impact. The machine gun fire does minor damage but it can be devastating when Max or Ridepod is approaching near death...
First of all, you need to wait for the boss to approach closer to the edge of the cliff, otherwise Ridepod\'s attack will be useless. Dodge the enemy\'s attack as you can and fire back once you got the chance.
This is followed by a cutscene and Monica will be longer in your party. (Aeris...)
Make your way down the pathway and move pass the stone gate. You should be able to proceed to the next area.

You will be relying on Max till you locate the fallen battleship. This means if Max is KO\'d, it will be game over. If you visit other areas, Monica is also not usable...
New enemies encountered but most of them can be handled easily with Ridepod\'s Barrel Cannon. Make a habit of exiting the dungeon and visit Cedric to fix the Ridepod. You will need to rely a lot on your buddy. Lava Bat can dealt easily with Max\'s gun or Ridepod\'s range weapon. Lava Golem is an improved version of Golem encountered in Starlight Canyon. Alexander has the ability to charge at you. Therefore make use of Max\'s charged attack. Chimera is like Tigriff except it could launch nasty spikes at you! Stay close when it is mid-air and attack! The gate items have changed. The gate key is replaced with \"Rope\" while area key has been replaced with \"White Wind Vane\".

The stage is perhaps the hardiest stage that you have come so far. First of all, you are already without Monica and there is a white seal for the stage. I recommend you to get Seal-Breaking Scroll ( bought from Morton\'s Sundries for 1500 Glidas) if you have experienced serious difficulties. Fire Dragon has the ability to cause stop. Make sure Max is equipped with the Non-Stop Amulet. Save your game upon completing this.

Those pesky Red Dragons will make you frustrated. Make sure Max is equipped with Non-Stop Amulet to withstand the Stop status (Also, make sure you have stalked up some Heart-Throb Cherry from Adel). Once you are done with this, exit the dungeon and proceed to Heim Rada for some more Georama Building.
---------------------------------------------
Heim Rada: Reconstructing Origin Point
* Controls Room restored
---------------------------------------------
You need to get 100 Culture Points and get Gerald into one of the houses.
Step 3: Recruit Gerald
-------------------------
This step can be done later but I recommend you to do it earlier. Proceed to Max\'s house in Palm Brinks and go to Gerald\'s house. Talk to him and he will give Max a Trumpet Gun and ask you to build it up to a Bell Trigger. Do this like what you have done for Milane and talk to Gerald once you have a Bell Trigger. Place him inside a house that is enclosed with some fencing.
Build some trees, accessories or painting to accumulate the required 100 points. Once you got the message that there are some changes in the future, proceed to Gundorara Workshop.
Future - Gundorara Workshop
==============================
Make your way to the controls room and you will meet up the leader - Galen. He will give Max, the legendary Fire Horn. You will need this key item to go pass the hot lava of Mount Gundor.
Make sure to do some scouting to do some searching for power-up items for Max. You should have 90% Georama Condition till now...
Floor 5-18: Mount Gundor Mouth
====================================== There is a river of lava blocking your way. Proceed near it and use the Fire Horn. It will reveal the Lava Road (which is also a scoop!). Take a photo of that. Move on and you will find the fallen battleship (take a photo of that too!). Eventually, there will be some cutscenes.
Boss: Gaspard
-----------------
Max will be forced to fight Gaspard. Gaspard is a lot more stronger than the previous fight against Monica. He dealt more damage, more combos, uses magic and can deal a devastating lightning strike. You may need to use some Cheese for stand-by, in case Max substains too heavy damage. Once Gaspard is knocked down, make use of the charged attack to juggle him. This move is very useful against future bosses...
Once you defeat Gaspard, there will be cutscenes. However, Griffon has controlled Gaspard and you will be forced to fight a monster- transformed Gaspard!

Monster Gaspard\'s attack are mainly fire based. It can shot numerous fire balls and leap like a ball, causing damage by impact. Switch to Ridepod and fire your Nova Cannon while moving in circles (dodging the fire bombs along the way). Before killing off Monster Gaspard, make sure take a picture of it as this is your last chance.
Upon defeating Gaspard, you will receive some more cutscenes and Gaspard departs away. Now you must return back to Gundorara Workshop.
Proceed to the future - Gundorara Workshop. You will get 100% Georama since you have defeated Gaspard. There will be a cutscene where Max & Monica will receive the Holy Daedalus Blade - the sword used by the late King Raybrandt, Monica\'s father. You will be back at outside. Take a photo of the Paznos (it is a scoop!). Meanwhile, visit the shops and upgrade Ridepod\'s part, get new weapons and items. Make sure you take photos of the Blackstone One and its control room as it will be changed once you proceed to the Central Luna Lab.
Proceed to the Workshop Elevator and take to the third floor. Find a transmitting device and you will be able to move to Pazno\'s bridge (i.e. controls room). Talk to Galen. There will be some cutscenes and you will be able to have Paznos to aid the future people against attacks from Emperor Griffon. Once you are done, make your way back to Veniccio and head for Luna Lab - to get your vehicle - Ixion, which allows you to travel to 10,000 years in past. The vehicle will take you to Emperor Griffon\'s palace - Moon Flower Palace - 10,000 years in the past. Take a photo of the Ixion as it is a scoop! Save your game.

Take a photo of the Ixion before entering the palace. Save your game and you will be able to enter the deserted garden in front of the palace. Proceed to the gate and you will end in the foyer and meet Emperor Griffon.
Without any warning, you need to fight it...

Do think that he is just a kid and he can be very easy... He could fire roses like bullets and make use of magic to make him fly! Ridepod\'s attack are pretty useless against him thus you need to make use of Max or Monica. Make sure you have ample supply of curative items such as Premium Chicken and Cheese. You need to first dodge the attacks that he throw at you and get underneath him and use a charged attack. You can actually juggle him as he is a human-sized boss...
Once Griffon\'s life is dropped to half, you will experience some cutscenes and the fight resume soon after...
After the boss is down, there will be some cutscenes and your Atlamillias are being stolen away. With the aid of 3 magcial stones - Sun, Earth and Moon, Griffon transformed in a gigantic monster with wings. After some cutscenes, Max and Monica will be rescued by the Firbits and Osmond who pilot the Ixion to the deserted stone site - Kazarov Stonehenge.
Kazarov Stonehenge
----------------------
At the Stonehenge, there will be a couple of scenes where you need to find 4 gems - Earth, Wind, Water, Fire and place it on the altar of the Stonehenge to form Chrono Union, which allows you to teleport Paznos to the present time.
Earth Gem - Found in Rainbow Butterfly Woods of Sindain
Wind Gem - Found in Starlight Canyon of Balance Valley
Water Gem - Found in Ocean\'s Roar Cave of Veniccio Coast
Fire Gem - Found in Mount Gundor of Heim Rada
Sounds familiar eh? You will have encounter stars exit before right? You can go past the star exit by using the \"Star Key\" (obtained from Elena) and use it to remove the star barrier. To exit, you still need the \"Gate Key\" for that area.
Take a photo of the main stone altar of the Stonehenge, it is a scoop dude. At each gem altar, it will be guarded by a guardian (i.e. 4 mini-boss fights await for you). Unlike normal boss, they drop Glidas and ABS...

It has been a while since I use ASCII text to make maps. First of all, the diagram is not drawn to scale - it just provide you with the basic idea. I recommend you to build the parts to its limit amount. The parts are set to a certain limit and you cannot use parts from other Georama area for this area.
Make your way to the door entrance to the palace & take a photo of the \"purple eye\" to get Moon Flower Palace Scoop.
Upon completing Georama Condition F, you will get a cutscene. Once you completed the Georama to 100%, you will get the game\'s rarest gems - Sun Stone and Moon Stone. Save your game.

You will need them to fight against the boss. Save your game. If you did not have the max number of Ressurrection Powder, revisit the dungeons floor to get some of them.
Floor 7-27 Sun Chamber
--------------------------
Within this floor, there are couple of rare photos. Take a photo of the statues guarding the door. Examine the door and you will be prompt to enter Griffon\'s real name. Enter \"Sirus\" (without \" of course) as your reply and you will be able to enter...
NOTE: From here till the ending battle, you will not be able to save...
B O S S
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Master of Darkness
Emperor Griffon
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The fight against Griffon can be divided into 3 separate battles...
Battle #1 - Against flying Atlamillias
You will be able to target 4 objects - Griffon and 3 magical Atlamillias. The Atlamillias will fly in circles around the flying Griffon and causes laser beams to be fire at Max. Attacking Griffon will be useless instead for against Atlamillias. There are 2 methods:-
1) Go underneath Griffon and wait for the Atlamillias be near the legs of Griffon and use a charged attack. Be prepared to waste some Cheese for the damage substained.
2) Use Ridepod. Wait for the Atlamillias are circling on top Griffon\'s head. Use lock-on and hit them with Ridepod\'s Nova Cannon.
Do this until you have reduced Griffon\'s life to 1/2. This is followed by some cutscenes...
Battle #2 - Wings as sword
Griffon will use his wings as a pair of giant blades. Using Ridepod will be useless. His attack is similar to Gaspard as most of his attacks is close-ranged except the beam wave. Try to get to his back and hit him with combos excuted by Max and Monica.
Once you reduce its life to 1/4, there will be more scenes...
Battle #3 - Flaming Griffon!
Griffon has 3 main attacks - the normal punch combo, a shockwave fire ball and a explosion ground attack. The first one can be avoided when your character is far away from him. The second one can be avoided by running. The 3rd one can be avoided by moving away from the damage radius caused by the ground attack. Take note that the shockwave could causes Stop status. Make sure you remove the status ailment or else, it could be a gameover for you...
At last, you have defeated \"Griffon\" and Sirus is back to normal... However a piece of dark cloud swivel above Sirus and reveal itself as the mastermind. You will be fighting the actual boss...
After some cutscene, you will be teleported to the Dream Spiral. Prior to fighting Dark Element, you will be forced to fight a series of dangerous enemies...
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Dream-Shredding Fang
Mammo
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Mammo is an elephant-type enemy. Just use Ridepod, fly in circles around the boss & fire your Nova Cannon. Relatively easy. If Max\'s gun has been upgraded to Supernova, it will be a piece of cake for you...
Upon defeating Mammo, just continue to make your way up the endless pathway - this reminds me of Final Fantasy X Omega Ruins...
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Dream Keeper
Nightmare
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Nightmare is a Stormy-like monster. Beware of the poison gas and splash attack. Just use the same strategy that you have used for Mammo and this should be no sweat.
Just keep on moving...
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The howl that echoes in the dreams
Black Dragon
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
I just hate dragons in Dark Cloud
2. Not only they could causes damage with their fiery breath, they could cause Stop with their regular attacks. Stick to the same strategy.
Just keep on moving...
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Servant of Dreams
Uther
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Watch out for its homing missile attack.
Make use of the same strategy that you have
used for the previous enemies.
Just keep on moving...

The double-dream ending swords
Gaja Ein & Gaja Zwei
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Once you defeat one of them, the battle ends automatically. An stronger version of Evil Nail and they could fire wave beams. Use Max and charged up your way. Once they are within the attacking radius, use it & they fall to to ground. Keep on doing this...
Keep on moving and you meet up Dark Element. After some cutscenes, you will be fighting the \"final boss\" of Dark Cloud 2:-

Scoop Photo - Legend of Moon
Take a photo shot of the falling moon in the background area of this fight. THIS IS THE ONLY CHANCE THAT YOU CAN GET THIS SCOOP.
I have faced a gameover here and need to restart this whole fight right from Griffon... Make sure you take the photo of the falling moon. For this battle, you need to rely A LOT on Max and Monica. You will be given a time limit of 5 minutes to defeat him...
Dark Element\'s attack are damaging doing from 48 HP damage to an instant kill. Hope that both Max and Monica\'s weapon is at least 300 for Attack. The core will be initially be red. When it is red, Max\'s attacks (gun and wrench) will be useless. When it is blue, Monica\'s attacks (sword and magic) will become useless. Thus, you need to attack the boss with Max when the core is blue and attack the boss with Monica when the core is red.
When the boss\' HP is near death, the core will emit a glowing light. The conditions will change. When the core is red, only melee attacks work while when the core is blue only range attacks work. Keep up the endurance and you will be able to defeat the boss within the time limit.
Finally, you will be granted with some pleasant story telling and the ending credits will roll. Monica will depart along with Elena and Agrias back to the future. Wait for the words \"The End\" to be shown...

Wait! There will be a prompt for you to create a start file for Chapter 8. You can choose to overrite your current file or save it on a new slot (provided that you have sufficient memory space). Save your game and you will be bought to the title screen.
C h a p t e r 8
````````````````````
T h e F o r g o t t e n A d v e n t u r e
=============================================
At the start of the chapter, you will find Maxmillian meeting up the Mayor. They are intending to reconstruct the Blackstone Railroad. However, you need to find some Zelmite located at the Zelmite Mines. The enterance to the mine can be found near the monument in Palm Brinks. You can also access it via the map selector. Before I carry on, there are something that you need to take note off:
- You cannot access to Kaznov Stonehenge & Moon Flower Palace dungeons anymore.
- You cannot access to the future as Max does not possess the Atlamillia anymore. Monica will not be in your party anymore...
- Make sure that you have an album saved file so that you can store 2 important photos.
- You will find Max carrying a golden pendant instead.
Equipment Check
------------------
- Make sure that Ridepod\'s equipment has equipped with the best items:
>> Weapon
- Nova Cannon III
Photos: Moon Column, Stove, The Sun
Items: 14 x Sticky Clay, 99 x Holy Element & 3x Holy Stone
Get this one until you have defeat a boss who have been your main arch-rival for the game...
- Nova Cannon IV
Photos: Flotsam Revived!* & Pot Torch & The Sun
Items: 1x Sun Stone, 5x Holy Stone, 15x Sticky Clay
You must have this in order to beat the game\'s final boss. Make sure that you have saved up a Sun Stone for this. Sun Stone can be found in one of the chests in this area. Get the scoop photo by taking a photo of Metal Flotsam.
>> Armor
Sun & Moon Armor
Photos: Electric Sesame, The Moon & The Sun
Items: 50x Light Element, 50x Holy Element & 50x Sticky Clay
This is the game\'s best torso part for Ridepod. Give Steve an additional 30 points of defense.
>> Leg
Propeller Leg
Photos: Cart, Fan & Windmill Feather
Items: 10x Silver Ball, 7x Wind Element
I would choose this as compared to the buggy. For the buggy, too many complicated controls is needed to move Ridepod. The Propeller Leg in my opinion is the best leg part for Ridepod.
>> Energy Pack
Triple-Urn Pack
Photos: Flower Chandelier, Light of Luna Stone & Pot
Items: 40x Sticky Clay, 40x Sturdy Rock & 20x Earth Element
This provides Ridepod with 300 hit points. The more HP is merrier.
>> All Shield Kits and Core has been upgraded to Master Grade Core
- Max\'s melee weapon should be either Grade Zero wrench or LEGEND hammer with all stats maxed out. I recommend the LEGEND as you can build up the stats to a higher limit as compared to the wrench.
- Max\'s gun should be upgraded to Supernova with 500 Atk points.
- Conserve your Ressurrection Powder unless you can make them.
- Stamina Drink is quite useful and it is time to use them.
- Always exit and save your game as the floors in this dungeon is quite hard if you are not well-prepared.
- Stocked up Premium Chicken (Ferdinand), Plum Rice Ball (Gordon), Mighty Healing (Dr. Dell) and Cheese (Granny Rosa).
- All Crystals can be bought from Rufio.
- Morton\'s Sundries sells all gems along with all coins except for Dark Coin and Indestructible Coin. Gems include all except for the Sun Stone and Moon Stone.
- Get all your support characters back to the train. Since Georama carries no importance in Chapter 8, it will be better to have all the members inside the Blackstone One.

Gamal is an advanced version of Froggy. It helps to hop off from your targeting thus make use of Max\'s charged attack. Dark Flower, Thunder Drake and Wind Drake can shot projectiles.

With Monica back, do some expect tough battles ahead of you. Always begin a new floor with at least 10 of a healing items such as Premium Chicken. Snow Ghost and Fire Ghost can shot projectiles and do tremendous damage with its repeated attacks. Danger Bomb has the capability of exploding when it is near death, causing around 100+ points of damage to your character. The headache is the Stone Guard.

This one is really hard. Heal immediately when your character\'s HP drop below 120. Stormflower, a stronger version of Himarra & Face of Yaksa (stronger version of Priest Rama) could cause nasty status when their projectiles. Cabule, an advanced version of Gyumo can be wipe off its feet by using Max\'s charged attack. Watch out for King Mimics especially when it is in pump-up status.

Floor 8-10: Death End 1
------------------------
At the start of the battle, there will be a cutscene and you will forced to fight a sub-boss comprises of 2 Vanguard-like enemies.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Keeper of the Loot
Burst One & Two
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
1 Nail Burst is already tough and you will be forced to fight 2 instead. Nail Burst has two kind of attacks - an elongated close range arm attack and a spin attack (melee). Thus it is advised to get away from it right? Make use of Ridepod\'s Nova Cannon III with Propeller Leg equipped. You should be move in circles when shooting lasers like hell. Hopefully you have a couple of Ridepod Fuel in your store. If Ridepod is destroyed, use Max\'s gun, which should do same amount of damage if maxed out.
After the battle, these boss drop Glidas and ABS. Make sure you collect them! You will be brought to the front of two treasure chests containing a Sun Stone and a Healing Coin. Do not spectralize the Sun Stone, you need it for Ridepod\'s strongest range weapon.
Once you are done, save your game and exit Zelmite Mines to replenish your stocks back to maximum (i.e. 20 Premium Chicken, 20 Plum Rice Ball, etc)
Return back to Floor 8-6: Crossroads of Destiny. Take the sun path this time.

This one is probably the hardiest dungeon up to now mainly due to 2 enemies - Faerie and Iron Spear. Try not engaged in close contact with Faeries (advanced version of Slyph) as they could not only cast magic, they could dealt combo melee attacks when in close range. Use Max\'s gun for a easy battle. Handle Iron Spear with Ridepod and dodge its homing missiles!

Spheda Prize: 1x Witch Parfait
In my opinion, it is possible to get the medal on first try except that you need to move against Iron Spear. While Iron Spear is firing homing missiles, dodging the missiles will be your priority as you can attack it later. For an easy battle, just use Ridepod for this floor.
Floor 8-16: Death End 2
------------------------
At the start of the battle, there will be a cutscene and you will forced to fight a sub-boss comprises of 6x Skeleton-like enemies
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Exploding Skeletal Dude
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
This one is quite easy if you have a 500 atk power LEGEND. Since those Rare Jackets can attack Max when they are in close range, you can use Max\'s charged attack, which deals a spin attack that attack all enemies surrounding Max. If Max\'s weapon has at least 200+ exorism point, you will be able to end the battle in no time. Luckily, Rare Jacket does not have a beam slash like Bone Lord. You may want to try throwing Holy Water at them...
Remember to collect your ABS and Glidas before proceeding to the chests. The 2 chests contains an Absorption Coin and a Moon Stone.
Once you are done, save your game and exit Zelmite Mines to replenish your stocks back to maximum (i.e. 20 Premium Chicken, 20 Plum Rice Ball, etc)

Floor 8-21: Dead End 3
------------------------
At the start of the battle, there will be a cutscene and you will forced to fight a sub-boss comprises of 2x Trigriff-like enemies
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Flappin\' Brothers
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
These 2 Sphinxes are hard. Their attacking style is similiar to Leogriff. They can shower you with energy spikes and swoop down with claw swipe. The best method to defeat them is to use Ridepod or you can get directly underneath them and use Monica with her sword slashing, which is quite risky if Monica get hit by their attacks.
Remember to collect your ABS and Glidas before proceeding to the chests. The 3 chests contain a Dynamite (key item), Poison Coin and Experience Coin
Once you are done, save your game and exit Zelmite Mines to replenish your stocks back to maximum (i.e. 20 Premium Chicken, 20 Plum Rice Ball, etc)

Expect a series of Magic crossfires. It would better to have Monica due to her Magic-Absorb Blade. If you use Max, make use of his charged attack to return the Wyrm\'s magical attacks. Take the Moon Path this time round.

Battleplant Squad
The Mandrakez
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Like the one against Rare Jackets, you can wipe them with Max\'s spin attack or Ridepod run-and-hit tactic. This one is quite easy as Monica\'s normal sword combo can hit them all. There are 5 of them. Each Mandora could causes harmful status ailment with its spit attack. The fighting style of the enemy is relatively similar to the Himarra.
Remember to collect your ABS and Glidas before proceeding to the chests. The 2 chests contain a Diamond each.
Once you are done, save your game and exit Zelmite Mines to replenish your stocks back to maximum (i.e. 20 Premium Chicken, 20 Plum Rice Ball, etc). Equip the Camera for Max, as an upcoming scoop...

Scoop Photo - Flotsan Revived!
Take a photo shot of Flotsam at
any point of the battle.
THIS IS THE ONLY CHANCE THAT YOU
CAN GET THIS SCOOP.
Flotsam has the ability to fly and drop bombs as he fly. Make use of Monica\'s homing magic. While he lands, use Monica\'s combo immediately. Once a combo is done, dodge and fire your magic until Flotsam comes down again. This battle can be quite easy if you use Ridepod. Max\'s hand gun works well. Flotsam can deliever a punch that deals damage that surround him, so watch out!
Make sure that you take the game\'s last scoop. You need it to defeat the final boss! After defeating Flotsam, there will be some cutscenes regarding the person who gives Flotsam this new unearthly power...
Build Ridepod the Nova Cannon IV and you will need the Sun Stone that you have found eariler in the dungeon for it. Once you are done, proceed to the next floor.

Spheda Prize: 1x Garnet
Believe it or not. This floor is extremely tough if you do not have Ridepod\'s Nova Cannon IV. Last Guardian is the strongest Masked Tribesman and it is really hard to beat unless you run to its back and whack it. However, normally they are quite close to \"snipers\" - Smiling Wolf. So make use of Ridepod to finish out the \"snipers\" first before fighting the last Guardian.
The subsequent floors are really the challenging dungeon floors of the game if you take the Moon Path. Likewise, you can move pass the area by taking the Sun Path and just completed 3 more stages to beat the game. As for the walkthrough, I would go for the Moon Path. If you take the Sun Path, please refer to Floor 8-34: \"Omen\" for more details.
Take the Moon Path.

This is another tough floor unless you have gotten Nova Cannon IV. Use Ridepod\'s range attack to attack the Cerbeus (the strongest versions of Statue Dog) and Krau Mauness (the strongest version of Sonic Bomber). Imps are damaging too but they are vulnerable to last attack. When they get close your character, stop firing and run away. Lock-on again and resume firing. Imps are the strongest versions of the Sylphs!

Watch out for Death Rope and Busy Moler. They have the ability to burrow underground like their predessors. Homing attacks such as Laser Arm IV and Monica\'s magic is pretty useful against them along with Max\'s spin attack (useful against Molers). As the Dead Rope (Killer Snake), use Ridepod. Bambamchoo and Mrs. Gourgon can cause status ailments with their projectiles. Make sure you have equipped a Anti-Petrify Amulet to guard against petrification.

There is a whole lot of elementals in this floor. Use Max\'s gun is quite easy if you have maxed out the gun\'s attack and elementals - Lightning, Flame, Chill, Exocrism, Scale, Cyclone, etc. If not, use Ridepod for this battle.

Generally, shooting like mad with Ridepod is perhaps the best strategy for this floor. However, watch for Wraith\'s (Nightstalker type) homing fire ball and Iron Ghost (Pirate Eye type) cannon bomb. Make sure that Max is guarded against poison and petrification.

I like the cards. They are easy to beat and give you a lot of ABS & Glidas. This is perhaps the most ideal training ground for your character. Just charged up Max\'s attack will allow you to move through this floor without any sweat.

Remove the seal using a seal breaking scroll, which can be purchased from Morton\'s Sundries.
* If you have taken the Sun Path, just defeat all enemies and proceed to the Floor 8-33. Next continue with the walkthrough.
All the enemies here are strong and tough. They are capable of dealing 70 to 100+ hit points of damage. They will deal more when they are in pumped-up status (i.e. all rage counters have been used up). Spinning Saucer requires you to defeat it with a lot of hits, while Tiamat (dragon) has the capability of causing Stop and Thirst on your character with its attack. Bone King can does a beam slash that deal 70+ damage when not guarded. Quite a tough floor.

F i n a l B o s s : D a r k G e n i e
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Preparations:-
Max >>
Right-hand weapon - LEGEND Hammer or Grade Zero Wrench
Left-hand weapon - Supernova
Ridepod >>
Nova Cannon IV, Sun and Moon Armor, Triple-Urn Pack, Propeller Leg, all shield kits equipped.
Item Equipment:
At least 10x Premium Chicken
At least 2x Ridepod Fuel
At least 1x Resurrection Powder
At least 10x Repair Powder
Camera
Rare Photos (not scoops)
--------------------------
In order to use this two photos:-
Zelmite Found: Take a photo of the blue ore (Zelmite) in boss battle background.
Mr. Big Shot\'s Shadow: Take a photo of giant Dark Genie
You need to take the photo and save them in album during the battle. The photos can be accessed into other save files as ideas in other saved files.
I suggest that you just need to use Max for this battle.
The boss has only 2 attacks and could sent a lot of smaller versions of Dark Genies to keep you occupied. The minimum dark genies could cause damage ranging from 50 to 60 hit points of damage and has projectile weapons like a Himarra. They tends to surround Max/Ridepod. The main boss, Dark Genie, the huge one is flying in the air can cause a beam blast that could instantly kill off Max if you are directly underneath it.
Strategy:
Use Ridepod and shoot your Nova Cannon IV like crazy at the big genie while playing catching with the small genies. There will come a point of them when Nova Cannon will deal \"No effect\". Just switch to Max and use his charged attack (not for too long or when the boss is just above you) and quick switch to Ridepod to flee and shoot again with lock-on. It just like run and gun strategy...
Once you have defeated the boss, congrats as you have completed Dark Cloud 2 \"once again!\"
