Upon
first entering the Concealed Tunnel wander around to the areas you can
reach and take note of the layout. There's some dressers in the
second room which cointain a few magic crystals, and a room at the end
of the passage just north of there that contains some more magic
crystals and some rough diamonds. Find the three mirros you can
access right away, and take note of the room in the southeast corner
with a lot of mirrors blocked by a portcullis. Now we'll
move onto the portion of the walkthrough that deals with using or
destroying the beams.
Section 1: Accessing the Mirrors
Though
I forgot to put the picture in, the first thing you should do is get
the second mirror shown in the pictures and put it against the wall in
the location shown in the fifth picture. Once you have that done
follow the steps shown in the pictures. The first two steps power
up a crystal in the corridor running east/west at the bottom of
the map. This crystal in turn powers up the crystal that operates
the portcullis leading to the mirrors.
The
last steps disable two of the beams in the room, making it easier for
you to move around the map without having to make your way through a
maze of beams. Once you've done this, it's time to get all your
mirrors together. Don't forget to retrieve the two you used in
this room, and the round mirror in the central passage near the storage
room with the magic crystals and rough diamonds. Section 2: Gathering Your Mirrors
I
like to gather all my mirrors here, since this area is central to where
I'll be working with them, and it really gets to be a pain to go around
collecting mirrors for everything I want to do. This picture
shows all the movable mirrors in this area. If you have less than
this you've missed some somewhere.
Next we'll move onto clearing the first room you entered, so you can get through the portcullis the north. Section 3: Clearing the Portcullis
Unfortunately,
there isn't any way to completely get rid of the beams in this room, so
you're always going to have one left to bother you, but follow the
steps shown in the pictures, making sure to follow the last step, which
means positiong the mirror just north of the immovable mirror.
This clears most of the room of beams, and now you can progress through
the portcullis to the north. Unfortunately there's another beam
almost right away blocking your path, so our next step will be to clear
away this annoyance.
Section 4: Clearing the Passage
This
section is pretty simple. Just follow the pictures shown above
and you shouldn't run into any problems. Once you've cleared this
beam out of the way check out the northern section of the
passage. There's a room to the north blocked by three
stalactites. Clear them out using a couple Stoneshatter Crystals
or Move Mountains Lv.2 to find a Regenerate Mind Crystal, as well as a
few other things.
Check out the passage leading south to a chest blocked by a beam. So now on to the next section to reach the chest. Section 5: Reaching the Chest
This
is probably the simplest and least rewarding of the beams. Follow
the pictures, making sure that you're using the right shape mirror,
otherwise you're going to trap yourself in the end of the
passage. The chest only contains a couple Fine Crystals.
The
next section is the most rewarding once you've gotten past the beam,
since it leads to a few chests with some nice items, including a suit
of Mauling Leather. Section 6: Reaching the Mauling Leather
Just
follow the pictures to gain access to the last area in this section of
the concealed tunnel. Once you get the mirror into it's final
position you'll have to step diagonally into the room containing the
chests. Make sure when you're entering and exiting the room that
you don't dislodge the mirror or you'll be stuck with not way to get
out of the town.
Once
you've gotten the items from the chest go back to where the mirrors are
all lined up to power up the last crystal powering the teleporter. Section 7: Powering up the Teleporter
Follow
the steps shown in the pictures to power up the teleporter. Make
sure you have the first mirror in position before moving the second
mirror to redirect the beam.
Once
you've done, head over to the teleporter. Check and make sure
that all four of the crystals around it are orange, and then head
through the teleporter to the last section of this level of the
Concealed Tunnel. Section 8: Through the Portal
This
is another fairly one, but if you do make a mistake don't worry.
There's a lever just to the south of the portal that resets the mirrors
to their original locations if you've messed up. Once you're
through take note of the room just to the north of the passageway out
of the room. The lever in here will turn off the beams on your
return trip.
You
need Move Mountains Lv.3 to get through this passage. Once you're
through we'll deal with the last section of the walkthrough. Section 9: Bringing Down the Barrier
- Entrance from first part of Concealed Tunnel
- Stoneshatter and Searing Crystal in chest
- Doomguard
- Shatter the crystal
- Giants appear here after you shatter the crystal
- Troglos appear here after you shatter the crystal
- Passage to Lower Giant Caverns
- Passage to under Castle Troglo
Upon
first entering this section, go around the corner to the southeast
corner. There's a Stoneshatter Crystal and a Searing Crystal in
the chest here. There's also some crystals and some fine crystals
in some pots in the northeast corner.
Now
head straight down the passageway to the west. There's a
doomguard in this area. Doomguards are annoying creatures who
form copies of themselves every time you damage them without killing
them. Adding insult to injury, you only get experience when you
kill the original copy.
Once
you've dealt with the doomguard approach the crystal in the center of
the pillars. When given the option to smash it, do so.
This will cause a bunch of Troglos to appear in the south of the room,
and a bunch of Giants to appear in the north of the room. It's
your choice whether to kill them yourself or let them kill each
other. If you want them to kill each other go back up the passage
leading to the first area of the Concealed Tunnel. They'll be
dead when you return.
Once
the Giants and Troglos are disposed of approach the place where the
crystal used to be. You'll automatically pick up the evidence you
need to take back to Berra in Fort Emergence. Notice that you can
now go through the passages leading to the Lower Giant Caverns to the
north and under Castle Troglo to the south.
Now
it's time to head back to Fort Emergence. Talk to Berra and show
him your evidence, then go talk to Anaximander. He'll tell you to
go talk to the Vahnatai, which you should do. While you're in
Fort Emergence go talk to Commander Johnson in the dining hall to find
out the location of the Bunker. Once you've talked to the
Vahnatai you should go visit the Bunker and talk to ??. Also, if
you go down to the Tower of Magi, X will now teach you Fireblast Lv.3. |
