Phantom Blade Zero Stage 1-2 Barren Earth: defeat slimes, recruit Snobby Blacksmith, and gain +2 Strength from Plain Slimes.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Start Stage 1-2 Barren Earth by moving Marona as far toward the Cacti as possible.
  2. 2
    Confine a character to the closest Cactus and then confine Ash to that same Cactus.
  3. 3
    Have Ash kill the nearest Plain Slime, which is providing the Snobby Blacksmith with Defense x2.
  4. 4
    Confine your Valkyrie and Merchant to the Rocks.
  5. 5
    Go after the other 2 Plain Slimes that are providing protection to the Snobby Blacksmith.
  6. 6
    Leave the Ruined Slime alone, as its effect grants 2x more Experience (EXP) from defeating enemies.
  7. 7
    On Marona's second turn, drop her into the water and confine your bottlemail (a type of character) to either the Starfish or the Seed to obtain it after battle.
  8. 8
    If you obtained the Starfish, equip it on your bottlemail after the battle as it raises his speed.
  9. 9
    Prevent slimes from reaching the Rocks; if they pick up a Rock, wait until Ash's final turn when his attack power doubles.
  10. 10
    After the battle, you will receive an automatic tutorial about blacksmiths. Return to Phantom Isle and create one.
Tips
  • This is a BIG area in Phantom Blade Zero; do not confine all your characters near the beginning, or you may only have 1 or 2 turns left by the time you reach the Snobby Blacksmith at the far end.
  • The money is low in Stage 1-1, so you can put off using NOTE 3 (which involves confining bottlemail to obtain items and selling them for early money) until later if desired.
  • The Snobby Blacksmith is a Recruitable Class.
  • Enemies: LV 1 Plain Slime x5, LV 1 Ruined Slime, LV 2 Snobby Blacksmith.
  • Items/Objects: Plain Flower x7, Plain Cactus x4, Plain Weed x3, Plain Rock x3, Plain Old Tree x2, Plain Starfish x2, Plain Tree, Plain Seed.
  • Item/Object Levels: 1.
  • Protection: Experience x2 (Ruined Slime), Attack x2 (Plain Slime), Strength x2 (Plain Slime), Defense x2 (Plain Slime).
