Your first call of duty is to reach the city of Eternia–the main entrance is blockaded, so you need to detour around Frostpeak Passage to the south. From the mooring area, head left and follow the snowy mountain trail until you reach a giant, menacing monster blocking your path–approach it to begin a mini-boss battle.
Boss: Ice Golem¶
Level | HP | Weak to |
---|---|---|
43 | 60,000 | Fire |
This massive golem holds no punches, using Freezing Punch to inflict heavy damage onto one character and cause Stop. It also uses Blizzard Blast to damage the whole party. For an easy win, equip as many Ice Charms (or the White Mage‘s Abate Water) as possible to reduce the golem’s water-based attacks and the Iceflame Shield on your healer to negate them outright.
Stop Immunity from a Time Mage is also useful for avoiding Stop. With the appropriate protection, this battle should be a breeze and not a blizzard. Just watch your HP and focus on retaliating with fire-based moves or weapons.
Eternia City¶
After smashing the golem, you’re now free to continue into the city of Eternia. Upon entering the city, Edea’s classmate will come and inform Edea that her mother has been admitted into hospital. Hurriedly make your way to the building to the north–the Central Healing Tower–and go inside.
At the top of the stairs, the nurse will lead Edea and friends into the room where Edea’s mother is. Edea and her mother will have much to discuss–including Edea’s rebellious actions of late. Out in the city, inspect the corner immediately to the left of the Central Healing Tower to find somebody’s lost medicine–an Elixir.
Search the snowy area to the far right of the city to uncover a piece of Arctic Wind. As usual, since you’ve come to a new town, do visit the armory, trader and magic shops to see if there’s anything of interest; watch out that a lot of the goods are quite pricey. When you’re ready to depart, head for the far left of the city to find the exit.
