Final Fantasy 6 Walkthrough |
World of Balance
World of Ruin
|
This is a walkthrough for Final Fantasy 6. It is The Mynocks Guide to FFIII and I take no credit for it. This walkthrough has been divided into two sections by me. |
(1) Solitary Island
You wake up as Celes on a small island. It seems you and Cid are the
only ones there. Leave the house and go south to the beach. Catch
the fish and return to Cid. You can save Cid from dying by feeding
him the fast-moving fish or kill him by feeding him the slow-moving
fish (or just not feeding him). If Cid dies then Celes will go throw
herself off a cliff, else Cid will just show her the raft and the
following about the seagull won't happen. The seagull will nurse
her back to health. Return to the house and read the letter
next to the bed. Follow its instructions by going down the stairway
hidden in the lefthand wall. There you'll find a raft. Examine it
and you're on your way to Albrook. Note: Don't forget to equip yourself.
(2) Albrook
Party: Celes
A man was here looking for his friends. He said he was going north,
to Tzen. Ok, so go to Tzen.
(3) Tzen
Party: Celes
Chests (in house): 2 Monster-in-a-box(Pm Stalker), Magicite, Drainer,
HyperWrist, Tincture, Pearl Rod, Heal Rod
Espers: Sraphim (if you didn't buy it in the World of Balance)
As you walk up the stairs to enter the town, the "Light of Judgment"
hits the town. Go to the back of town to where Sabin is holding up
a house. If you don't have a Jewel Ring go to the Relic Shop and
buy one. Equip it and enter the house. You have 6 minutes to save
the kid and get out. So save the kid and the get as many treasures
as you can leaving yourself enough time to get out. Avoid two chests:
the one next to the stairs going down and the one to the left of the
kid. When you get out safely, Sabin will join you. If you didn't
buy the Sraphim Esper in the World of Balance, you can now for 10 GP.
Leave town and go to the far east to Mobliz.
(4) Mobliz
Party: Celes, Sabin
Items: Check barrel next to far left house for Fenix Down
BOSS: Phunbaba
Espers: Fenrir
Go into the house the kid enters and then down stairs. Here you find
Terra. After the flashback, leave the cave and Phunbaba attacks the
village. Terra tries fighting it but is defeated easily. It's up
to Celes and Sabin. After scaring it away Terra won't go with you but
a kid will give you the Esper Fenrir. Now leave town and head
northwest to Nikeah.
(5) Nikeah
Enter the Cafe and talk to everyone. Go out and follow the thieves
onto the ship. Now go back into town and talk to Gerad (across from
the Armor Shop). Follow him. You're now on your way to South Figaro.
(6) South Figaro
Items: if you didn't get the items in the barrels and boxes in the
World of Balance, then search them now to get:
Fenix Down, Elixir, Tent, Remedy, X-Potion
Go to the Cafe. Go into the door marked Inn and straight through to
Gerad's room. After talking to Gerad (AKA Edgar) the thieves will
leave town. When you're done shopping head west to the Cave of Figaro.
(7) Cave of Figaro
Chests: Hero Ring, Ether, X-Potion (if you haven't gotten them yet)
As you enter you'll find Sigfried. He says to wait there but don't
listen to him. There is nothing new in this part of the cave since the
lst time you were here so just keep going until you reach the thieves.
Follow their example and jump onto the turtle. This part of the cave
is new to you but all the chests have been looted already, however
in the second section you can go up to where you'll find Siegfried
messing around with a chest and when you approach he runs off. If you
continue going you'll reach the basement of Figaro Castle.
(8) Basement of Figaro Castle
Chests: Gravity Rod, Crystal Helm, Ether, X-Potion, Regal Crown
Item: Search statue in treasure room for Soul Sabre
BOSS: Tentacles
Go up the stairs and then continue straight down the other stairs.
Keep going down. Eventually you'll reach a room with 3 doors and 4
chests. The right door is where you enter this room. The left door
leads upstairs to a chest and the middles door leads to Edgar (er...
Gerad). Talk to Gerad and he'll finally admit he's Edgar. He then
joins your party, just in time to fight 4 Tentacles. When you've
beat it, go into the back room and search the statue in the center
of the room for Soul Sabre. Now turn around and back track your way
out of the castle. As you're going up the stairs the old guy near
the exit will bring the castle to the surface. You can go upstairs
and do some shopping. When you're ready to go return to the old man
and have him take you to Kohlingen.
(9) Kohlingen
Party: Celes, Sabin, Edgar
Enter the Inn/Cafe. Here you'll find Setzer, who'll join your party.
When you're ready, head west to Darill's Tomb.
(10)Darill's Tomb
Party: Celes, Sabin, Edgar, Setzer
Chests: Crystal Mail, Czarina Gown, Exp.Egg, Genji Helmet, Man Eater,
Monster-in-a-box(Presenter)
Additional items: Presenter gives you Dragon Claw
BOSS: Dullahan
Go down to Basement 2. First go left and down. Grab the chest and
go north thru the doorway. Press the switch in the turtle pond. Then
go back to the room with the stairs going up and the chest in the
middle. Walk down until all you can see is your head, then walk right,
through the wall. Go up to the treasure chest when you can't go any
further and you can get Exp.Egg. Return the way you came, go up the
stairs, and then go north through the door and then east as far as
you can. Go up thru the door and examine the gravestone. Go up and
press the switch and then go south and grab the treasure. Return
north and then go west and south thru the indentation. Jump on the
turtle and it'll take you across the water. When you get off press
the switch then go south. Examine the four gravestones:
ERAU QSSI
DLRO WHET
Now go north past the room with the turtle on your right and into the
big room where you started Basement 2. Go west and north thru the
door. Examine the gravestone and carve in the following order:
WEHT DLRO QSSI ERAU
"The World Is Square" backwards. This tells you where the Exp.Egg
is (just in case you didn't read above ;) Now return to the room
with the turtle on your right and hop on it. You're now in a room
with a save spot and 2 chests. The left one is a monster-in-a-box.
Defeat the Presenter and you get Dragon Claw. Once you get the
treasures go up and examine the big statue. This will cause
Dullahan to attack. After you defeat it a passage will open up in
the back, enter it and you've got yourself a new airship. Now you
can go get Sabin his most powerful Blitz at Duncan's House (it's where
5 trees make a plus (+) sign just below some mountains. His house
is the center tree).
(22)Duncan's House
Party: Include Sabin
Make sure you have Sabin in your party. As you enter the house
Duncan will come out and teach Sabin the Bum Rush blitz.

the desk. Now go out and talk to the carrier pigeon. Go outside
and go where the pigeon went (which is Zozo).
(12)Zozo
Items: Rust-Rid is here (Rare item)
Go over and talk to the guy in front of the building marked Inn. Buy
the Rust-Rid from him for 1000 GP. Now enter the building marked Cafe
and climb until you reach the door that is rusted shut. You can now
enter it and go to Mt. Zozo.
(12)Mt. Zozo
Chests: Red Cap, Ice Shld, Thunder Shld, Aegis Shld, Gold Hairpin,
Machinery Manual, Book of Secrets
Additional items: Storm Drgn gives you Force Armor
BOSS: Storm Drgn (**DRAGON #1**)
The 1st section is straight forward, just walk around getting treasure.
At the end of the 1st section you'll find two exits. The left one
gets you more treasure and the right one continues onward. Eventually
you'll find Cyan. After you have control again return to where you
found Cyan and get the key to the locked chest. Now return to the
save spot and then go over and step on the switch. This will release
the Storm Drgn. After you beat it you'll get Force Armor. Only 7
more dragons to go. Now back track your way out of the cave (or use
the warp stone/spell). Once you're out return to the airship and head
towards the cave in the Veldt.
(13)Cave in the Veldt
Chests: Rage Ring, Monster-in-a-box(Allo Ver), Striker
Additional items: Allo Ver gives you Tiger Fangs
BOSS: SrBehemoth (Gray and Pink)
When you defeat Allo Ver you get Tiger Fangs. In that wall you
walked thru to get to the monster-in-a-box, you can also go down
in a spot to reach another section of the cave. Follow the path
and eventually you'll reach a door with a switch to the right of it.
Pull the switch and go through the path it opens. Continue
following this path and eventually you'll find Shadow (or Relm if you
abandoned Shadow back on the Floating Island). As you're examining
his wounds you're attacked by a SrBehemoth. After defeating the
SrBehemoths you'll take Shadow (or Relm) to Thamasa.
(14)Thamasa
Go to the Inn and rest. When you wake up return to Shadow and check
up on him. How return to the airship, reduce your party to 3 members,
and go back to the Veldt. You'll see more of Shadow (or Relm) later.
Veldt
Party: 3 members
Wander around until Gau joins you. Now return to the small island
you started at. If you return to Thamasa you'll find out that
Shadow has gone to the Colosseum (that is if Shadow is still alive).
If you take Sabin and Gau to the shack located on the big island
north of the Veldt, you'll learn more about Gau's past.
(1) Solitary Island
Espers: Palidor
Go to the beach where you caught the fish for Cid. Here you'll find
the Esper Palidor. Return to the airship and go to the Colosseum.
(15)Colosseum
Here you'll find some information. You can also fight monsters
one-on-one for prizes. Bet the Striker (found in the cave in the
Veldt) and you'll fight Shadow. He'll join you after the fight.
When you're done playing around in the Colosseum return to the
airship and go to Jidoor.
(16)Jidoor
Chests [in the house]: Moogle Suit, Relic Ring, 2000 GP, Potion, Ether,
Remedy
Additional items: search Gestahl's portrait twice = Royal Letter (Rare item)
BOSS: Chadarnook
Esper: Starlet
You can bid in the auction house if you didn't before going to the
Floating Island (see section called The Auction House for more). Enter
the big house at the north part of town. Try going up the stairs.
You'll be pushed back and a book will appear on the desk. Read it. Go
to the light next to the stairs and push A to turn it on. Examine the
picture of Emperor Gestahl twice and you'll receive information.
Examine the picture of the flowers and you'll be attacked by some
Nightshade. Now examine the picture of a lovely lady. This time you'll
be attacked by Dahlings. Kill them and enter the door that appears.
Examine the picture of a chair and you'll be attacked by Souldancer and
some Wild Cats. The left door leads to a chest. After getting the
chest go through the right door. You'll come to some "revolving
doors". In the little pathway behind the doors there is a hidden
chest. The middle and right doors take you back to the room with a
picture of a chair. Obviously the left door is the right way to go :)
Keep going and you'll come to a room with some floating chests. Walk
underneath them and they'll fall (and you'll get attacked). Examine
the picture of armor and you'll have to fight Still Life.
Enter the door that appears when you defeat it. You're
now in a room with a save spot and 2 doors. The left one takes you
back a few rooms. The right one leads to a big room where you find
Owzer and Relm. Talk to Owzer and you'll find out what happened and
will be asked to defeat Chadarnook, the monster in the painting.
After you defeat it you can get the Esper Starlet by examining the
book case and Relm will join you.
Now exit the town and add Cyan to your party (if he's not already in
it). Go back to Maranda and talk to Lola. Examine the letter on the
desk and Cyan will switch it with another one. Now return to
Mobliz.
(4) Mobliz
Items: Examine the pot in the cave where Terra & Katarin are for Ether
BOSS: Phunbaba
Go down to the cave where you first found Terra. All the kids say
Katarin is missing. Exit the house and go to the house to the left
of it. Here you'll find Duane. Notice where the dog went. There's
a secret passage behind the bookshelf. Here you'll find Terra and
Katarin. While you're down there, Phunbaba will return. You'll
have to defeat him again. Return to the surface and you'll face it.
After defeating it, Terra is back in your party. The characters that
Phunbaba blew away are on the airship. Return to the airship and go
either fight Doom Gaze or go to the Fanatics' Tower.
Fight Doom Gaze
BOSS: Doom Gaze
Esper: Bahamut
At this point it may be a good idea to fight Doom Gaze. Fly around
the map and eventually he'll attack you. He escapes after a while
but the next time you meet with it, its hps will not have regenerated.
So if you continue to run into it, eventually you'll kill it. And
when you do the Esper Bahamut is yours. You may want to fly around
until you defeat it. It's worth it to get Bahamut.
(20)Fanatics' Tower
Before you enter put Relm in your party. Now enter the tower. Relm
will get Strago's attention and he'll join you. Don't actually try
going up the tower yet, you`ll have your chance later. For now
return to the airship and go to the center of where the mountains
form a star (north of Tzen). Push B to descend.
(17) Phoenix Cave
Party: 2 groups with 4 members each
Chests: Wing Edge, Warp Stone, Ribbon, Dragon Horn
BOSS: Red Dragon (**DRAGON #2**)
Have your first group (G1) enter the cave and step on the switch.
Now switch to your other group (G2) and have them enter the path that
opened. At the top of the stairs go left and try to get the chest.
You'll fall down a level. Go south and up the stairs. Step on the
switch and get the chest. Go east past the stairs and down to a switch.
Change to G1 and enter the passage that opens when G2 stepped on the
switch. Step on the switch that you come to as you go north. Switch
back to G2 and go north past where the spikes were, and then right until
you come to another switch. Step on it and switch back to G1 again.
The chest is empty but go down and you should find a hidden room thru
the wall containing a chest with a warp stone in it. After you get it
return to where you were and go down the stairs. Go left and
step on the switch (the chest is empty). Now turn around and go the
opposite way. Keep going past the chest (this one's empty too).
When you come to a dead end switch to G2. Go left, past the spikes,
and down the stairs. Go right onto the bridge and jump across on the
little stones. Turn around and go back on the top set of stones.
Don't worry about the chest (it's empty). Press the switch and change
to G1. Have G1 go up thru the spot that just opened and then around
and back down to a switch. Step on the switch and then change to G2.
Go up and step on the switch you find. Switch back to G1 again and
go up, across the spot where the spikes were, and the down. Jump
from stone to stone. Keep doing this and eventually you'll reach a
stairway leading up. Go up it and pull the switch you find. Now go
down as far as you can a switch back to G2. Go left and step on the
switch. Switch back to G1 and go down where you'll find the Red
Dragon. You can fight it now or wait until later. Take G2 and go down
and left. Follow this path and you'll come to where the lava was
cooled off. Walk out and get the chest in the center (this one isn't
empty :) then go over to the left side and go up. Follow this path
until you can't go any farther and switch to G1. Go and step on the
top switch. Now have G2 jump across the stones that appeared and then
have them go down and step on one of the switches then switch groups
and have them step on the other switch. Take you strongest group and
go fight the Red Dragon (if you haven't already) and then after you
kill it have the other group go down and you'll find Locke. You'll
now automatically return to Kohlingen.
NOTE: If for some reason you return to the Phoenix Cave you can
instantly return to the airship by going to where you found Locke.
Here you can press to the right and you'll hop over some rocks
to a platform where you'll find the transporter (it looks like
a red save spot).
(9) Kohlingen
Items: X-Potion, Fenix Down, X-Ether, Elixir, Flame Shld, ValiantKnife
Espers: Phoenix
Here you'll receive the Esper Phoenix plus all the stuff that was in
the chests that you found empty: X-Potion, Fenix Down, X-Ether, Elixir,
Flame Shld, and ValiantKnife. Now it's on to Narshe.
(18)Narshe
Chests: Gauntlet, X-Ether, Monster-in-a-box(Pugs)
Additional items: Cursed Shld, Moogle Charm,
Pugs may leave Minerva, possibly the
Ragnarok sword (depends on your choice), and possibly
a Ribbon, a Pod Bracelet, and an Elixir (depends on if
you already got the chests or not previously)
BOSS: Ice Dragon (**DRAGON #3**), Tritoch, Umaro
Espers: Ragnarok, Tritoch, Terrato
As you enter Lone Wolf come out and tell you some stuff. Almost all
the buildings are locked. If you have Locke he can open them. Go
to the house with no markings and have Locke get you in. Inside
you'll find a man in bed who'll give you Cursed Shld. Equip this
shield to someone. It may be a pain for a while, but in 255 battles
it'll all be worth it. (Being equipped for 255 fights removes the
curse and changes the shield into the Paladin Shld which teaches the
Ultima spell [a Ribbon must be equipped to the person using the shield
in order to uncurse it. It would make sense to have it equipped any
way because it counteracts all the bad effects of the Cursed Shld --
except Condemned, but, hey, you can't have everything :) ].
Go to the Weapon Shop and have Locke get you in. In the
back room you'll find and old man. Talk to him. He'll give you a
choice of either getting the Esper Ragnarok or making it into a sword.
Tough choice: the sword is VERY powerful (and can be bet in the
Colosseum for an even more powerful sword) but the Esper teaches you the
most powerful spell in the game - Ultima. Once you've decided (I'd go
for the Esper) enter the mines thru the secret passage Locke showed you
or thru the entrance behind Arvis' house, and then go to the Moogle Cave
where you'll find Mog waiting to join you. Once he's out of the way,
search the wall behind him for the Moogle Charm [also in this cave
is a chest that may contain a Ribbon if you didn't get the Rune Sword
that was in it in the World of Balance]. If you explore the cave
some more you'll find two other chests (the 1st two chests that Terra
found in the beginning of the game). If you haven't gotten them
yet, they'll contain a Pod Bracelet and an Elixir.Return to the airship
and add Mog to your party. Now go back into Narshe and go north to the
mines where you first saw Umaro (straight back from the entrance of
town). Once inside the mines take a right, and continue following
that path until you reach the Ice Dragon. You may want to go past
the dragon to the save spot before fighting it. After defeating it
continue north to the frozen Esper Tritoch. You'll have to fight it
before you can have it. Now go to the edge of the cliff and jump off.
You'll land in a new area of the mines. Wander around and you'll
be able to find 3 chests. The monster-in-a-box sometimes leaves
Minerva armor. When you come to a switch, pass it up, cross the bridge
and pull that switch. When you fall down search the skull carving and
you'll get the Esper Terrato. Then Umaro will come down and attack
you. When you defeat him and if Mog is in your party, he'll join you.
If you follow him out you'll end up just below the spot where you
first saw Umaro. Enter the mines to your left. Follow that path and
you're on your way out. Once you're out of Narshe go to Triangle
Island.
(19)Triangle Island
Wander around until you get attacked. The only monster on the island
is the ZoneEater. If you kill it it's worth 1000 xp, but in order
to continue you must have all four of your characters get engulfed,
so just sit there. Once you get engulfed you'll be in a cave.
(19)Cave in Triangle Island
Chests: Ether, Red Jacket, Genji Armor, Magical Brsh, FakeMustache,
Zephyr Cape, Hero Ring, Tack Star, Thunder Shld
To get out go north and step into the light. To get Gogo go down and
left. Push A to jump from bridge to bridge but try not to touch
the little green guys because they'll knock you down (get knocked
down at least once for some treasure). Once past the save spot you'll
come to a room with a moving wall. If you get caught by the wall
you die. To get past it, stop behind the first chest and go as soon
as you can move. Do the same for the second chest. For the third
chest go down from it and then when you can move go up and get
the chest then quickly come back down again. After that spot you come
to a room with open chests. Press A to jump onto a chest and then
across. When you can, jump across to the switch, now you can reach
a treasure on the left side of the room. When you're ready go thru
the door. Here you'll find Gogo the copycat. He'll join you. To
get out you can either backtrack or use a warp stone/spell. Next
stop...Fanatics' Tower.
(20)Fanatic's Tower
Party: I suggest taking Umaro, Gogo and your two best magic users.
Chests: Safety Bit, Air Anchor, Genji Shld, Stunner, Force Armor, Gem Box
Additional items: Pearl Lance
BOSS: White Dragon (**DRAGON #4**), MagiMaster
If you use Gogo make sure to add the Fight (yes Fight, not Magic)
command to his list. If you use Mog you can equip him with the
Moogle Charm and put him in the lead for an easy time getting up
the tower. If you cast Bserk on your party they'll attack with weapons
and you can save your mps for healing and stuff. If you don't have
Life3 then equip the Esper that teaches it and keep fighting until you
learn it (you can beat the boss of the tower without Life3 but it takes
a LONG time or a shit load of hps). Each level has a doorway (there
are four levels plus the roof). In the first level door go to the
right of the chest and press A. When you leave you'll see another
door below you. Inside is an Air Anchor. The third level door leads
to the White Dragon. You get Pearl Lance when you defeat it. Once on
the roof get the Gem Box and equip it to someone (the one with the best
spells). Now, if you have Life3 (or Rasp, Bserk, and the Fenrir Epser
equipped to do it the long way) then exit the room,if not wander around
the room and battle monsters until you get it (make sure the Esper
equipped teaches it). When you've got Life3 exit the room and try to
leave. You'll be stopped by the MagiMaster. After you defeat him you
have to climb back down the tower (this is the time you'll want Mog in
the lead with the Moogle Charm). Now go to Doma Castle.
(21)Doma Castle
Party: Cyan and 3 others
Chest: X-Potion, Fenix Down, Beads, Ether
Items: Search a pot near the sleeping room for Remedy
Search the clock in the room next to the sleeping room for Elixir
Make sure you have Cyan in your party. Go to the room to the right
of the throne room for treasure. Enter the door south of this room
and follow the path until you reach a door which leads to a couple
more chests. Now return to the hall leading to the throne room. Go
south from the throne room door and then into the right door. Search
the pot then go left and enter the second door you come to. Get the
chest and then go back and enter the door you passed up. Take a nap.
You will now enter Cyan's Soul.
(21)Cyan's Soul
Party: the party you took to Doma Castle minus Cyan
Chests: Genji Glove, Lump of metal, Flame Shld, X-Potion, Ice Shld
BOSS: The 3 Dream Stooges, Wrexsoul
Espers: Alexandr
You start out with one of the 3 characters in a weird dreamworld.
Head left and enter the right door and then the next right door. Now
you can go down and get another of your characters back. Now enter
the door, go right and enter that door. Now go left again and this
time enter the left door. Go down and get your remaining character.
Enter the door. Now enter the top door, then the door on the right,
and then the only door there. Now go right and enter the door. Go
down and try entering the door. Larry, Curly, and Moe will attack.
Enter the door and you'll find yourself on a train. Go left into the
train car. In the second car pull the switch twice as you enter and
get the treasure. Now go to the far left of the car and get the Lump
of Metal from the chest. Return right, to the open chest that moves.
Push A and you'll put the Metal into the chest allowing you to get by
it and get the chest in the back. Now go left and pull the switch,
notice which chests close. Continue left into the next car. Notice
there is a chest just to the left of the entrance on the other side of
the couch. There are 4 switches. To continue use them in the following
order (they are numbered 1 to 4, from right to left): 1, 2, 1, 3. Now
you can reach switch #4. Before pulling it, close the chests so they
match the set-up in the previous car:
open open closed
closed closed open
Once you have the chests set up like above, pull the switch and the
wall will open allowing you to go on to the next car. Enter the
engine room and then attempt to exit. You'll find yourself in some
mines. Go down and follow the path until you re-enter the cave. As
soon as you enter the cave turn around and exit. You'll end up in
a new spot. Trying to cross the bridge you'll fall and end up in the
sleeping chambers of Doma Castle. Before going to the throne room
where Wrexsoul awaits take some time to explore. There are 3 little
scenes that deal with Cyan's life that you can see: one in the
room to the right of the throne room ('I loveth thee'), one on left
side of the castle (fencing lesson), and one on the right side of
the castle (fishing). Go to the throne room where you'll find
Wrexsoul. After defeating Wrexsoul Cyan will rejoin your party capable
of using all 8 SwdTechs and you'll wake up back in the sleeping
chambers. Go to the throne room and you'll find the Esper Alexandr.
(7) Figaro Castle
Party: who ever you want
Enter the castle and go down the stairs to you left. Talk to the guy
and have him take you back to Figaro. On the way you'll get stuck.
Stop and explore. Go up the stairs and then down the other ones.
In the back of the far right jail cell is a doorway. Enter it and
you'll be on your way to the Ancient Castle.

Chests: Ether, Wing Edge, Doom Darts, monster-in-a-box(Master Pug),
Magicite, X-Potion
Additional items: Gradeus
When you defeat the Master Pug (monster-in-a-box) you'll receive

the save spot and up some stairs. You're now at the Ancient Castle.

and walk five steps down. Press A and a secret passage will open.
In the secret room you'll find a statue of a girl and the Blue Dragon.
Defeat the dragon then examine the statue. This will change the
Esper Odin into the Esper Raiden. Once you've visited all four rooms
that go off from the throne room (one on the left, one on the right,
one to the north, plus the secret one) then return outside. A couple
steps to the right of the stairs is a door. Enter and get the chest.
Now enter one of the doors to the left of the stairs. When you
defeat the monster-in-a-box(KatanaSoul) you get Offering. Now
return to Figaro castle by going back the way you came and have the
guy continue your journey to Figaro. Once you get there talk to him
again and have him take you back to Kohlingen so you can get your
airship. Now go to Thamasa.
(14)Thamasa
Party: include Strago and Relm
As you enter you'll find out that Gungho is hurt. You find out that

BOSS: Hidon
As you enter step on the switch to be transported. North of where
you appear is a Coral eating treasure chest. Wander around the cave,
stepping on switches to get around, and pick up coral from the chests.
If you end up back at the coral eating chest, feed it. If you've
fed it enough he'll let you thru. If not go get more coral. Once
it lets you thru go straight north and you'll find Hidon. Kill
the Hidonites and Hidon will cast Grand Train (Strago's most powerful
Lore). After you beat Hidon you'll return to Thamasa to brag to Gungho.
Now go to the Opera House.
NOTE: To make Hidon reset all you have to do is talk to Gungho a few
times.
(25)Opera House
BOSS: Dirt Drgn (**DRAGON #6**)
Additional Items: Dirt Drgn may leave a Magus Rod
Equip as many characters in your party as you can with Gaia stuff.
If you have some on each character it'll make life much easier for
you. Go to the balcony and talk to Impressario. You'll learn
there is a dragon on the stage. Go northeast to where the stage
master and 4 switches are. The rightmost switch won't do anything.
The leftmost switch barks and the one right next to that turns the
lights off. Pulling the only one left will cause you to fall to
the stage where you'll have to fight the Dirt Drgn. To see your
character jump on the heads of the audience go back to the switches
after you defeat the dragon and pull the one that drops you to the
stage. Next and final stop -- Kefka's Tower.
(26)Kefka's Tower
Party: 3 groups of 4
Chests: Coronet, Fixed Dice, Minerva, 2 Tack Stars, Force Shld, Force Armor
Ribbon (x2), Red Cap, Nutkin Suit, Gauntlet, Hero Ring,
Aegis Shld, Megalixir, Rainbow Brsh

BOSS: Atma, Gold Dragon (**DRAGON #7**), Inferno,Skull Drgn (**DRAGON #8**),
Doom, Goddess, Guardian, Poltrgiest, Kefka
Espers: If you killed all 8 dragons you get Crusader
Note: When you find the chest with the Hero Ring in it search the south
wall to find a secret passage to a room where a chest is that
contains an Aegis Shld.
Your 3 groups will land in 3 different areas of the tower. Each
group will be designated as follows: G1 will be the group that landed
on the left side of the tower, G2 will be the group in the middle,
and G3 will be the group on the right. You start as G1.
G1: Go around to your right and get the chest then enter the little
hatchway to your left. Continue on this path until you come to
a dead end. You should see a switch and a chest on the other
side of the room.
G2: When you have to choose between going up and down, go up first
and get the treasure then go down. Going down will lead to a
prison. In the far left cell you'll find Atma. Defeat it and
it'll change into a save spot. Now go down out of the prison
and continue on that path until you have to choose between two
pipes. Don't go in the rightmost pipe, it'll just take you back
before the prison. Enter the left pipe. Before you enter the
hatchway that you find, go to your far left to get a chest.
Enter the hatchway, step on the switch and get the chest, then
go back up and enter the door to you right. Keep going staight
and you'll reach the Gold Dragon. After defeating it you get
the Crystal Orb. Now continue you journey. When you reach a room
with a switch, stand on it and switch groups.
G3: First enter the hatchway that is next to the chest to get two more
chests then come back and enter the other hatchway. Continue on
that path and you'll eventually reach a save spot. A few more
steps and you'll get attacked by Inferno, Striker, and Rough
(a big ol' monster and it claws). Once you've defeated them
continue on your journey. When you get to a chest with a glowing
thing on it, examine it to open up a passage that your other group
will need to get past. Then keep going and you'll reach the
Skull Drgn. When you defeat it you'll get the Muscle Belt. If
you've killed the other 7 dragons, you'll also receive the Esper
Crusader. Keep going and you'll end up on the other side of the
room you left G2 in. Stand on the switch.
G1: You are no longer at a dead end. Follow the path and you'll
eventually reach the room your other two groups are in.
Continue straight and then, after you reach the switch, pick a
side to go on (it doesn't matter which). For illustrative
purposes I'm gonna say go left. Now go down. Move G2 off the
switch and then push the weight off the edge. Now go back inside
and stand on the switch.
G2: Enter the main doorway and do what G1 did, except on the right
side.
G3: Go in through the main door and step on the switch. This will
open up a pathway. Go south and step on the platform to open up
a couple other pathways.
G1: Go down and out to where you pushed the weight off. To your left
there is a door. Enter the door and go straight where you'll find
Doom. When you beat it you'll get Sky Render and there will be
a save spot there. Now enter the pipe to the north and stand
on the switch.
G2: Go down and out to where you pushed the weight off. To your right
is a door. Enter the door and go straight where you'll find
Goddess. When you beat it you'll get Excalibur and there will
be a save spot there. Enter the door and step on the switch.
G3: Go north and you'll be attacked by Guardian (remember it? this
time you can beat it thought :) When you defeat it a save spot
will be there. Go north through the door, then to the left and
down through another door. Search the wall below and to the
right of you to find a Ribbon. Now go up and battle
Poltrgeist. Defeating it will get you the AuraLance. Go
north and drop down the hole. Step on the switch and it's time
for the final multi-battle showdown.
Put your characters in the order you want them to fight. The first
4 in your list will fight 1st. If anyone of those 4 are dead at the
end of any of the stages of the last fight the next characters in
line will replace them. This goes on until all 4 fighting members
die or you beat the game.
