Etrian Odyssey Part 9 walkthrough covering B6F and B7F, including finding the Clear Key and opening white crystal doors.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    From the B6F entrance, head East through the door to find a "Mine" Item Point. This is a dead end; consider using a Warp Wire unless you can return to the Geomagnetic Field.
  2. 2
    It is recommended to visit all 3 Item Points a few times to collect en, gain experience up to levels 20-21, gather 5 Starseeds, and acquire items for better equipment.
  3. 3
    When ready, head North from the Geomagnetic Field through both doors. Avoid the several Cutters (FOEs - Field of Enemies, visible enemies on the map) moving around.
  4. 4
    Travel to the NW corner of this room to find a door. Go through it and travel South, then West. A Moa is lurking here. The path further West is a dead end.
  5. 5
    The path to the North cuts West and leads through a door to another "Take" Item Point.
  6. 6
    Return to the room with several FOEs. Head to the NE of the room to find another door.
  7. 7
    Go through this door and travel South, then go all the way East, skipping a path to the North.
  8. 8
    Go North at the wall to find a chest containing a Medica III.
  9. 9
    Go back and take the path to the North. Travel all the way East to find a "Mine" Item Point.
  10. 10
    There is a door to the South here. Go inside, but be wary of a Cutter FOE. Go around the tree in the center to find a door leading further South.
  11. 11
    Take the Eastern path South to find another "Chop" Item Point. This location seems to yield Starseeds more frequently than the other.
  12. 12
    Go back up to the door and take the Western path South. Go through the door to find a room full of Cutter FOEs. It is possible to avoid any fights here.
  13. 13
    Head to the SW of this room to find the final door of this floor.
  14. 14
    Go through the door and head North to the wall. Go one square West and face North to find a Warp Point that provides an easy return to the Geomagnetic Field.
  15. 15
    Now, go West to the wall, South one square, and turn West again. Go North to find a chest containing a Stonard.
  16. 16
    Go all the way South, then West, then North to find the stairs to B7F.
  17. 17
    From the entrance of B7F, head West. You will reach panels that inflict damage. There is a treasure chest containing a Chain Helm in the NE of this clearing.
  18. 18
    Exit North in the NW corner of the clearing. Follow the path East then North. Here, you will encounter an Assassin FOE. It is recommended to fight this FOE, as it will otherwise follow you and join random encounters.
  19. 19
    Head West at the first intersection and follow the path North over more poison panels to find a chest containing the Clear Key. This key allows you to open doors previously blocked by white crystals.

Areas Unlocked by the Clear Key:

  • B1F: Go straight North to the clearing before the soldier you met. Find a chest containing a Nectar.
  • B2F: The crystal is in the SE part of this floor. Go through the door and take the Northern path to find a Medica IV, and the Southern path to find a Soma.
  • B5F: This is a long area, especially if you want to map it. Be aware that Fenrir and its Skolls may have respawned if you have not visited recently. If you have the quest "Shadow in the grove," the monster will appear as a FOE near the Northern part of the floor. It is a normal Spider monster. The crystal is on the NW side of the map. Going through the door leads to a long path South to another door. You will encounter Wolves (FOEs) in here, which should be manageable. After passing through this door, head East to find a door leading North with 2 treasure chests. These contain a Nectar II and a Bravant II. Go back South through the door and head to the SE. Go through another door and take a long path East across the screen. Here is another door leading to a small clearing with an exit on the NE side. Head North through this door and a long path to another door. Behind this is a chest containing an Amrita. Check the NE corner of this room to find a one-way Warp. You will proceed through a series of paths. A one-way Warp out is located on the SW part of this area. Otherwise, take the stairs up to B4F in the NW part of this place.
  • B4F: Head to the door in the SE of the room and take a long path South then West to a door. You will enter a long corridor stretching North and South. Doors are located every other square on the Eastern side of this corridor. The 2 doors to the South are dead ends containing FOEs. Take the door just North of the one from the stairs to find a chest with a Stonard II. The next 3 doors North all connect to each other. Watch out for a Cutter FOE in this area. The next door is also a dead end. Of the remaining 5 doors, the 2 furthest North are dead ends. The remaining 3 doors lead to the same corridor, which then leads to 2 more doors. Take the Northern door to find a Cutter FOE and a chest with 4000en. Go back out and take the Southern door to find stairs up.
Tips
  • Consider using a Warp Wire to return to the Geomagnetic Field from the dead-end "Mine" Item Point on B6F.
  • Visiting Item Points multiple times can help you level up to 20-21, collect Starseeds, and gather materials for better equipment.
  • Be cautious of FOEs, especially Cutters and Assassins, as they can be dangerous.
  • The Assassin FOE on B7F should ideally be fought to prevent it from joining future encounters.
  • The B5F white crystal area involves extensive travel; be prepared for a long exploration.
  • The final chest in the B5F white crystal area contains an Amrita, but a hidden one-way Warp is also present.
