Complete The Manglegrove and Mount Pang Lai sections in dragon quest xi echoes of an elusive age definitive edition. Find Mini Medals, rare items, and new monsters.
The Manglegrove
As you enter The Manglegrove via the entrance close to The Last Bastion, you’ll see from taking a look at the map that the bridge to the Costa Valor has been repaired. Most of the monsters that you’ve already fought in Heliodor return here with one or two new Vicious types to add to your growing Bestiary.
Begin by heading west until you reach the large open field and then take the vine down to the southwest. After you reach the bottom, look north to discover a chest containing a Mini Medal. Head south from this location to find a Sparkly Spot containing a Belle Cap. Stick to the west side as you head north to find the next Sparkly Spot housing a Spellbound Bough before continuing north to a Tree gathering point containing two Spellbound Boughs and a Fatalistick. Finally, head east into the corner here to find the final new Sparkly Spot containing a Royal Soil.
Climb the ledges to the north and then make a quick detour to the Campsite to register it to your Zoom list and access the forge. Begin by making a King’s Axe for Hendrick if you have the materials (if not, upgrade his current axe) and some Magic Armor (at +3) for Hendrick first and then the Hero if you have left over materials. Finally, rework Hendrick’s shield to +3 along with the Shield-Bearer accessory (along with equipping it on him). Leave the Camp and make your way over to the northwest, taking the bridge over to the Costa Valor. Not much has changed here in the Costa Valor save for a landslide blocking the way to Puerto Valor so ignore it for now and head north into Mount Pang Lai.
Mount Pang Lai
To reach the area that the King mentioned back at The Last Bastion, you’ll need to trek up the mountain. Begin by following the path until it opens up, coming back on yourself to the south to find the first Sparkly Spot containing a Spellbound Bough. Follow this path to the northwest to find a hidden chest containing a Mini Medal among the long grass. Continue to follow the path up to the Camp to rest along with saving your game. Head east from the camp and shimmy around to a Sparkly Spot containing a Dieamend before entering the Base Cave.
Follow the linear path until you come across a glittering Dragon Rider, defeat it and mount it to gain the ability to fly around the area by holding the [R2] button to Flap higher. Using the dragon, fly up the ledges and then search the western wall for a Sparkly Spot containing a Rockbomb Shard. Continue along and up to the next open area, heading to the northwest to find another Sparkly Spot containing some Fresh Water.
Fly over towards the edge of the water and grab the Mythril Ore from the Sparkly Spot before flying over the water to the east where you’ll find three more Sparkly Spots containing two more Mythril Ores and an Enchanted Stone. Fly back over the water and head up to the Slopes.
Back out on the snowy path, head forward and defeat one of the glittering Honeyhead Horknights to grab yourself another mount. Continue along across the bridge and open the chest on your way to obtain a new Recipe Book, More Dragony Designs. Continue up the path and ignore the entrance to the town for now, instead opting to fly over the water to a Sparkly Spot containing another Enchanted Stone. If it’s currently night time, you’ll find a Sparkly Spot containing a Lunaria to the west of this location. Finally, follow the path to the east to discover the final chest containing a Staff of Antimagic. With all the items looted on the mountain, head back to the entrance of the town and head inside.
Angri-La
As you enter Angri-La, you are surrounded by monks before the High Lama steps in. After the pleasentries are exchanged he will ask you to meet him in the High Hall. Before heading straight t
