This section details enemy encounters and recruitment opportunities in various locations, including Aire Hills, Sanmite Steppe, and Urssa Lava Caves.

Enemy Stats:

  • Aire Hills / Kirlsa Hills: Giant Moth (25,600 HP), Convictor c (45,000 HP), Blood Monster (70,000 HP), Enforcer b (82,000 HP), Proclaimer c (65,000 HP)

  • Sealed Cavern: Yuan-ti b (22,000 HP), Flaming Zombie (35,000 HP)
  • Urssa Lava Caves Boss: n× Albel 3 (120,000 HP)
Tips for Encounters
  • Giant Moths are vulnerable to Thunder Flare (Sophia/Nel) or Fayt's Lightning Blast. Using No Guard is recommended.
  • For leveling, Moonbase Incapacitators/Destroyers or Palmira Plains' Blood Monsters/Enforcers are suggested. Aim for Lv100 before the post-game for better XP.
  • Mirage leveling: Aim for Lv56 or Lv62, using Acrobat Locus. Max out First Aid.
  • Hypothetically, if using CHHP with Mirage, boost it to Lv5 with Hammer of Might on Young Shriekers at Granah Hills.

NPC Recruitment and Events:

  • Aquios: Visit the main street to unlock NPC inventors Meryl, Count Noppen, and Boyd. Ruddle & Rumina sell wares in a house on the west side.
  • Peterny (east): Meryl (Dremela's Tool Set) can be found here.
  • Airyglyph: Dejison (Ultimate Bomb) is in the southern part of town.
  • Airyglyph Castle, 2F Audience Chamber: If Albel joined permanently, approach the throne to get the Crimson Scourge (Unique Item). Count Noppen offers services for 150,000 Fol.
  • Surferio: Recruit Izak (Blueprints, AI Program, Meryl, Vanilla, Dejison) near the Village Chief's House if requirements are met. Adray can be recruited if he was in the party on Disc 1, triggering a scene near Parch's entrance.
  • Castle Aquaria 2F Audience Chamber: Adray joins if he wasn't in the party on Disc 1 and this area wasn't visited earlier.

Crafting Recommendations (Engineering):

  • Stock up on Healing Devices (around 10) if Sophia or Adray are not in the active party.
  • Crafting recipes include Healing Device Mk1-3, EM Stun Explosive, EM Stun Explosive MP, ES Hybrid Bomb, ES Hybrid Explosive, and Beguiling Device.

Battle Trophies (BTs):

  • Peppita or Adray can be used to achieve 'Win by a margin of x HP' BTs by adjusting their DFP. For Peppita, aim for 19 DFP (Elven Cloak + Charm of Insight). For Adray, aim for 39 DFP (two Yellow Talismans).
  • Urssa Lava Caves Boss (n× Albel 3): 6,000 XP, 26,000 Fol, Philosopher's Symbol (Artifact).
