- 16Exit Alvanista and go right, then down and around the mountains on the right. Go past the port and north to find the entrance to Morlia Gallery.
Boss Fight: Klaus
- Recommendation: Deactivate Gnome and Sylph. Use Ifrit for Klaus as it does great damage to Undine.
- Cress: Use normal A attacks as Undine is not affected by his techs. Try to corner Undine for an advantage.
- Mint: Focus on healing.
- Arche: Use Thunder Blade or Fire Wall.
- Reward: Upon defeating Klaus, he drops a ? Book (another Rabionis) and over 8000 Gald. Klaus will also learn the summon Undine.
Tips
- Remember not to use the Ice Scimitar on Cress.
- The boat near the cave can be used as a save and resting place.
- Equip the Aqua Cape for resistance to water attacks.
- Save your progress at the Memory Circles before difficult sections and boss fights.
- Prepare for Morlia Gallery, a long dungeon, after exiting the Glaciated Cave.
