Gameplay notes
- You can get another Ether Doubler here!
- Speaking of, Elly will be unavailable after the first chapter this week so unequip any rare items that you may want others to use.
- This is a good area to grind experience and DBs if you want, since you can heal up gears, buy items, and switch party members
- In the first area, push the bolder out of the way to reveal a pillar room. Read the pillar and wall messages (W/E/2xS on either side of door), then inspect the wall on the west side to cause a rock to drop. Do this first!
Then push the stone into the hole. Inspect back of the west pillar, use the new rock to jump onto second pillar. Jump straight up to knock third loose. Push them into the holes. You can leave the room to reset the “puzzle”.
Unique Missables
- Ether Doubler!!
- For the boss in the first dungeon this week, if they self destruct you won’t get the item (Trader Card). Trader Card makes enemies drop rare items more often when equipped. If you want it, once you get the warning, take out all the stops to end the flight quickly, as you are time/turn limited.

Discussion Guidelines
Everybody should feel free to post and ask questions–it’s what makes book clubs fun! But please do not post until you are familiar with Spoiler Courtesy!
Spoiler Courtesy
Please follow these rules to avoid inadvertent ネタバレ. If you’re unsure whether something should have a spoiler tag, err on the side of using one.
- Any potential spoiler for the current week’s reading need only be covered by a spoiler tag. Predictions and conjecture made by somebody who has not read ahead still falls into this category.
- Any potential spoilers for external sources need to be covered by a spoiler tag and include a label (outside of the spoiler tag) of what might be spoiled. These include but are not limited to: other book club picks, other books, games, movies, anime, etc. I recommend also tagging the severity of the spoiler (for example, I may still look at minor spoilers for something that I don’t intend to read soon).
- Avoid posting any information from later in the game than the current week’s reading. If it is necessary to doing so, it needs to be hidden by spoiler tags and labeled as coming from later sections.
Instructions for Spoiler Tags
Click the cog above the text box and use either the “Hide Details” or “Blur Spoiler” options. The text which says “This text will be hidden” should be replaced with what you are wishing to write. In the case of “Hide Details”, the section in the brackets that is labelled “Summary” can be replaced with whatever you like also (i.e, [details=”Chapter 1”]).
