4 Teenagers
When Ryu has grown up, visit the children who play "Hide & Seek" in Wyndia, they'll ask you to play Hide & Seek around the world! But don't worry, because I'll tell you where they're hidden:
- Duana Mine, near the Big, Green Dragon Skeleton
- Checkpoint [West of Wyndia] : Behind the wall
- Junk Town : Outside a house [i forgotten it]
- Wyndian Graveyard : Behind a tombstone
Once you have found all of them, go back to Wyndia, be their apprentice, master them and they'll teach you new formations!
Ways to defeat Berserker/Arch Mage
First, you may ask,"Who's Arch Mage or Berserker?", Well, they're found in the Container Yard and arekinda hard to defeat for some BoF Fans. So, I'll provide some tips! If you wanna add a tip, please mail me.
Arch Mage - Characteristics
- Arch Mage regenerates 1500 HP each turn. Yes, 1500 HP, not lying. But don't worry, he has only around 5000 HP. And he has 45000 EXP Points!
- Arch Mage usually uses "Myollnir" [Bolt Elemental], so equip armor that resists Bolt Magic [e.g."Thunder Ring"], turn to Bolt Dragon, or have some jabs to resists bolt in some towns.
- Arch Mages usually revives your party members when only one of your party member is alive. He uses "Benediction", so use "Examine" him, then ESCAPE!
- If you were to try stealing his things, you'll get a "Soul Gem", and after you kill him, you might get a "Holy Avenger" [Sword].
Arch Mage - Tactics
- Generally, he's quite easy to kill. First, let Ryu turn into a Bolt Warrior [Bolt + Force + Eldritch]. The reason why there's a Bolt in it is because he can block Bolt Magics.
- Once he has turned into a Dragon, use the other party members to increase his SPEED and POWER[priority]. E.g. Might, War Song, Focus, etc. Use the first turn after you've become a Dragon to do these things before attacking.
- Now, start attacking using "Aura" for Ryu and other members to heal the other players which were being attack/killed by the Arch Mage.
- Repeat the process till you kill that guy.
- Hey, don't forget about me when you've beaten that tough guy!
Berserker - Characteristics
- Berserker has a high HP and defense. Fortunately, he doesn't regenerate HP each turn! Well, he has 30000 EXP Points, well, not as high as Arch Mage's.
- Berserker usually uses "Fire Whip" [Fire Elemental], so equip armor that resists Fire Magic [e.g."Ring of Fire"], turn to Fire Dragon, or have some jabs to resists fire in some towns.
- "Can I learn "Fire Whip" from him?" Ans: Most probably, I haven't tried it yet.
- If you steal, you'll get an "Aries Ring" which increases your Power. "What'll you get if you kill him?" Ans: I've killed him twice, but haven't got anything from him, *BEEP*!
Berserker - Tactics
- Well, it's not as easy to kill Berserker than Arch Mage cos' he has a relatively high HP... but he uses "Fire Whip" most of the time. So, don't worry.
- To kill Berserker, it's still the same tactic as the way written above [e.g. change to Dragon using "Bolt + Force + Eldritch", blah blah blah. Remember to heal your party members after each attack!
