Joins this chapter: Lid

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Explore the Immediate Area

    Grind a bit of EXP to match the local enemy level, then head for Dilmagia.

  2. Enter Dilmagia

    Talk to the marked NPCs, then go to the shipyard to recruit Lid.

  3. Go to Mt. Thunderclap

    Paying Lid 1000 Gil opens a shortcut to a chest with armor for Fina, but take the long route too for EXP and a quest tree.

  4. Defeat the Liquid Thunder

    Put the Cape of the Raiju on someone and use Lid's and WoL's Earth skills on its weakness.

  5. Obtain the Summon Ramuh

    Optional: loop around to the peak to fight Ramuh, after leveling and buying Earth Scrolls, or save him for later.

  6. Go to the Dwarven Forge

    Shop first, then fight Mom Bomb with Water skills and watch for it splitting into four Bombs at low HP.

  7. Go to the Mobliz Shipyard

    Enemies ahead are weak to Lightning, so this is a good time to get Ramuh if you skipped him.

  8. Explore and Make a Save at the End

    Loot the dungeon, then save before the event at the end, since a timer follows that keeps running in battles.

  9. Flip Lever 16

    Visit the south elevator, then break the fence to the east and pull Lever 16, the middle one.

  10. Avoid the Guardians

    Guardians block the exit; turn back, since fighting them is not worth the time.

  11. Defeat the Epimetheus

    A weak mini boss that hates Lightning; save your resources because Adrastea follows with no break.

  12. Defeat Adrastea

    Hit it with Lightning and Water, which Visions like Cloud, Zidane, Terra, Tronn and WoL all provide.

  13. Upgrade Lid's Mechabo

    Do Arise, Mechabo! and Mechabo Evolved for new Lid skills; some steps need more story progress first.

  14. Head to the Wind Shrine

    Grind a little and level Visions that have Ice skills before you go in.

  15. Defeat Aether

    Aether is weak to Ice, and you should kill each minion it calls in right away.

  16. Finish Any Extra Detours

    Pick up missed Tablet Shards and Onion Knight, then talk to Lid to sail on.

Chapter 2 Tips

  • The Dwarven Forge sells Earth Scrolls, a cheap way to hit Earth-weak foes.
  • Make a save before the Mobliz Shipyard timer section.
  • The Mechabo quests are long, so chip away at them while you travel.
