Complete Mausoleum walkthrough for Tales of Phantasia, including how to get the Protection Ring and defeat the Golem Boss.
Walkthrough
- 1Enter the cave, go up and right across the bridge. Defeat the skeleton and zombie mini-bosses to find a treasure chest containing a Mixed Gummi.
- 2Go right to find Tristan, who will teach you about combined skills and teach you Majin Han.
- 3Head up through the door into the catacombs.
- 4Exit the first room by going south, then proceed down the corridor.
- 5Enter each door along the corridor to find small rooms with coffins. Examine the coffin and say yes to open it. A zombie will emerge; defeat it to receive an item.
- 6From left to right, the first door's zombie yields a Protection Ring (sometimes nullifies physical damage). Equip it as an accessory.
- 7The second door's zombie gives Spectacles (gets enemy info during battle).
- 8The third double doors are locked by mysterious magic and should be skipped for now.
- 9The fourth door's zombie yields an Hourglass (stops time in battle).
- 10The fifth door's zombie gives a Chain Mail (equip on Cress).
- 11The sixth and last door's zombie yields a Rune Bottle (used on items with a "?" later).
- 12Go down the last door at the bottom of the corridor. Continue down until you pass through a door and reach a split path.
- 13Go down first to another room. Through the south door is a chest with an Apple Gummi. Through the other door is a bag with Cheese.
- 14Return to the split path and go right and up through the door. At the next split path, go up first to find a chest with a Saber.
- 15Go back down and to the right. Use the upper door first. Past the first three statues, examine the fourth one to press a switch and hear something fall.
- 16Continue up through the double doors to find a chest with a Chain Mail (equip on Chester).
- 17Return to the previous room to find two new chests that appeared after pressing the switch. The first contains a Sage (+5% HP), the other a Mixed Gummi.
- 18Go back down and use the door below the one you just came from.
- 19Go right to find a Memory Circle (save point). A bag below it contains Cream Cheese. Save your progress.
- 20Examine the statue north of the room to initiate a boss fight with the Golem Boss. Use Dual Kick and Lightning attack moves to defeat it quickly.
- 21After the boss fight, move the statue by pressing A next to it and using the directional pad. Push it all the way down and to the left onto the switch on the floor.
- 22Before entering the door on the left, go all the way to the right and enter the double doors. This room contains a bag of Cheese, a chest with an Orange Gummi, and a chest with a Panacea Bottle.
- 23Return to the statue's location and go through the door up from there. This room contains a chest with the Lace Ruby, an item needed to open locked doors in this dungeon.
- 24To return, exit the room, go right, then up through the door. In the next room, go left, then down. Start going up to exit north via stairs.
- 25Continue up through the stairs until you reach the corridor room, then go left to find the double doors.
- 26Go through the double doors into a room with a symbol on the floor that teleports you to a lava dungeon.
- 27In the lava dungeon, take the bottom left moving platform to a chest containing a Rebirth Doll.
- 28Return to the main platform and take the upper right moving platform. Find a switch all the way to the left on the next platform and activate it.
- 29From this platform, take the upper moving platform to reach two chests containing Cream Cheese and a Rabbit Symbol (equip on anyone).
- 30Return to the main platform and ride the lower right platform. Cress will drop the Lace Ruby. Go down the stairs to find the Ruby Lace, but Cress drops it again.
- 31Go back up and step on the Octagonal symbol on the floor to float.
- 32While floating, return to the moving platform. The Jet Boots are crucial here to avoid damage.
- 33Once on the main platform, go south, around the teleporting symbol, and downstairs. You are now in the bottom level with damaging liquid.
- 34The Ruby Lace is visible to the lower left. Take it and return to the safe area near the stairs.
- 35A chest on the bottom right side of the room contains Lavender. You can attempt to grab it in the same run as the Ruby Lace or return later.
- 36After obtaining the Ruby Lace and Lavender, return to the double doors above the octagonal floating symbol.
- 37Go through the double doors to find a Memory Circle. Save your progress and go up.
- 38Prepare for a boss fight with two Golems. After the fight, de-equip everything from Chester and proceed through.
- 39A cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically) will play where you encounter Morrison and Marth, the black knight, who intends to revive Dhaos. Cress and Mint are teleported back in time by Morrison and saved by Chester. Morrison gives them a book detailing Dhaos's story and how their parents sealed him away. The scene ends.
- 40Proceed to the town visible nearby.
Tips

- The Rune Bottle is essential for later use on items with a "?".
- The Jet Boots are crucial for navigating the lava dungeon to avoid damage while floating.
- De-equip everything from Chester before the final boss fight in this area.
