It is now time to obtain Karn's first, and invaluable, fusion spell. Head back to the room with the boulders behind the shelf at Gant; the shelf is inside the guild. Put Ox in front of the party, and have him break the boulders blocking the way. Make sure you have Karn in front, and talk to the man you see. He'll teach Karn the spell of simulation. After the man reappears, Karn will gain access to his first fusion form, Shin! This combines Karn, along with Gobi and Bo, into one ultra form! Note that when Karn chooses to transform (from the spell menu), the appropriate characters will fuse, and his attributes will increase, especially HP! Since the corresponding characters, or in this case, Bo and Gobi, are fused with Karn, you cannot use them in battle separately, unless Karn reverts back to his original self. Upon transformation, Karn will gain a new 'body' to walk around in and outside of battle, unless you revert before a battle is over (for weird reasons beyond my comprehension). Have Karn transform right away, unless you haven't finished purchasing equipment for the party. ALWAYS have Karn in his transformed state unless you need to purchase something for the fused characters, or you need individual character's skills for something. Note that Shin can hunt like Bo, but can fire his arrows much faster. He can walk through forests as well. You'll be using Shin for quite awhile, so get used to it. With Bo and Gobi fused, this leaves the initial party as: Ryu, Karn (fused), Ox, and Nina. There are three more places where Ox will prove useful. Take a visit to Aqua.
Aqua- 3rd Trip
|
|
Once you reach Aqua, take a stroll up to the second floor and break down the weak wall you spotted earlier. Open up the four chests inside for a total of: a SilverBR, Life2, Life, and 3000GP. The SilverBR increases your encounter rate, so it is up to you on whether you want to equip it. If you are still confused on where the weak wall is located, view the map of Aqua here.
Cave to Bleak- Final Trip
|
|
You can head back to the Cave to Bleak and break down the wall on the first floor. The two chests contain a L. Ptn and A. Ptn. If you forgot about where the weak wall is located, then try viewing the map here.
Krypt
At Krypt, you can have Ox smash the rock holding the B. Rang in the area where you fought Eyespy. If you forgot where that was, then try viewing the map.
