Navigate the Shrine of Kaddan in Star Ocean: Till the End of Time, facing bosses like Lesser Eye and Dark Armor, and collecting the Sacred Orb.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    As you enter the room leading into the shrine, Scene164 will play, initiating the boss fight against the Lesser Eye. The Lesser Eye has 230,000 HP, 56,000 MP, 1000 ATP, and yields 30,000 XP and 84,500 Fol. It does not grant any Bonus Trophies (BTs). Be cautious of its eye beam, which has a 25% chance of petrifying you; sidestepping is an effective evasion method. Its Misery Circle attack drains MP but cannot directly cause an MP kill.
  2. 2
    Proceed north past the first save point to trigger Scene165 and the boss fight against 3 Dark Armors. Each Dark Armor has 67,000 HP, 6,000 MP, 1250 ATP, and yields 30,000 XP and 117,000 Fol. Convert Damage and elemental resistance are highly recommended, as Hammer Quake is Earth-elemental. Thunder Flare is also beneficial. If a direct approach fails, you may need to fight solo with a ranged character. You can only revive other characters once.
  3. 3
    In the second map area, collect the Enchanted Pen in the corridor with spiked walls, money in the room where the Orb of Foe Finding was found, and Synth Materials in the southeast area, if not previously acquired.
  4. 4
    Approach the Crystal Statue to trigger Scene166 and the boss fight against Crystal Statue b. This boss has 168,000 HP, 10,000 MP, 1300 ATP, and yields 15,000 XP and 33 Fol. Recommended skills include Triple Kick, Aerial Assault, and Dimension Door.
  5. 5
    Before proceeding to the next boss, consider returning to the previous save point if you wish to save your game.
  6. 6
    Enter the room with the statue to trigger Scene167 and the boss fight against the Dark Eye. The Dark Eye has 330,000 HP, 56,000 MP, 1300 ATP, and yields 50,000 XP and 110,000 Fol.
  7. 7
    Examine the Sacred Orb to trigger Scene168.
  8. 8
    Upon exiting the dungeon, the last three Item Creation (IC) NPCs will be unlocked: Chilico, Osman, and Louise.

Tips
  • The Flaming Zombies encountered here are not a significant threat once their flames are extinguished with Water-elemental attacks. Subsequently, they can be defeated with a Fire-elemental weapon.
  • This area is suitable for leveling up Scatter Beam and Pulse Blast if they were not maxed out previously.
  • Beholders, while present, are less of a threat than in previous Star Ocean titles. However, they can take a considerable amount of time to defeat unless hit by two triple chains simultaneously. It may be advisable to avoid them as normal enemies.
  • The Beholder's eye beam has a chance to petrify you, which can be avoided by moving.
  • Misery Circle drains MP but cannot directly cause an MP kill. MP kills can occur from their anti-backstab attack or their counter aura (Ring Wave).
  • Gold Armor has the highest DFP of all enemies in the game (950).
  • Maria's IHPD can be effectively leveled using Gold Armor if attribute transfer with Gravity Bullet is employed.
  • For the Crystal Statue b boss, consider using skills like Triple Kick, Aerial Assault, and Dimension Door.
  • There is no save point between the Dark Armor boss and the Crystal Statue b boss.
  • Sacred Orb (Unique Item)
  • 3× Dark Armors (Bosses)
  • Crystal Statue b (Boss)
  • Dark Eye (Boss)
  • Chilico, Osman, Louise (NPCs unlocked after exiting the dungeon)
