Joining the love for the log cabin too. It's also right next to the plane making it easy to go to Elderwood or Snowpeak.

Just took on the Golden Dragon in the Ancient Ruins TOTALLY unprepared. Didn't have nearly the right items, and my party was not the best suited for the fight, but I still managed to scrape out a win. It was really exciting.

I named my character Griff (because Griffith wouldn't fit) and my personal horse Casca. Not sure if I'm a monster or not.

Congrats! I love when that happens, except when I went unprepared against the Lord of the Cursed. Oh boy, that feeling when 50 Life Cures isn't enough..
But, if we're talking about insane preparations...
Ta-da! Napdragon solo'd at Level 2.

And still at it. Almost 75 hours in and working on getting my blacksmith and carpenter to creator. Then I think I will be ready to take on the tower.
I've kind of hit a brick wall after over 100 hours of gameplay. I'm Hero or Demi-Creator in all of my jobs, level 71, but it seems that getting any further would demand HEAVY grinding.
Origin Island is just insanely difficult. I guess I should start getting party members.

What's the best armor in the base game in terms of defense that doesn't include Hero or password sets? Is it the
?
holy set
I'm no expert on the subject but I think you're right (checking through my crafts and excluding the Origin Island stuff). The problem is not all Lives can wear it. So it depends upon your needs.

Thanks for checking! True, not all can wear it but I'm usually rocking the Mercenary or Miner Life when I'm just wandering about so that's good enough for me.

You're talking about the upgraded version of the AAAAA Mercenary combo, right?
The key is on the last A, wait a beat after when you'd usually press. Your character should basically finish the spin completely that accompanies the forth part of the combo. Once you get the timing down, it's really easy.

I mostly have issues with the timing. I can get the 4 A combo down easily.
I am waiting for Silverfang to respawn in my game.
He is the last Merc challenge for the area.

Sleep in the inn/your house until the next day?
It's the Silverfang, the ice dino, at the top of Mt. Snowpeak right?
TheSlySoul
Member
Yeah.
I could spam sleeping at the inn, but according to guides he has a 3 day spawn timer.
Sleep at the royal cabin just south, faster that way. (Used it to farm the fish spot)
Aveyn Knight
Member
Huh, I don't remember any bosses that take more than 1 day to respawn. Which guide is this?
Anyway, the guide is wrong, because I just checked and it takes 1 day to respawn it.
You can get to Snowpeak's summit easily by taking a flight from Falcon's Garage in South Castele to Snowpeak, then speak to the Guide Paladin before the mountain entrance to warp to the summit.

Thanks for the tips. I will try sleeping in an inn.
I mostly waited around collecting materials, but he never spawned even after a day.
The game is addictive!

Five day weekend and Thanksgiving dinner has already been eaten so very few interruptions to my gaming time this weekend.
Hoping to progress more in this game. 38 or so hours in right now but nowhere near finished.
Have Pokemon, Persona Q, and probably a Wii U and those games to pull me away.

I'll take you up on the offer soon! =)
But not today, have documentation to write for class after our presentations. =\
I think so.
It's for one of the quests.
I have to kill ten enemies using it.
And it's hard enough finding enemies of an appropriate strength.
Yup, this. I used the little green frogs in the West Grassy Plains. The last hit is more than enough to toast them.

I believe after you get the other mounts bliss rewards, you can take your horse out farther.
But, you can also fly via the small plane to Mt. Snowpeak and other dungeons in that region too.
You can talk to the paladin standing guard at the entrance of Mount Snowpeak on the Grassy Plains and he'll warp you straight to the top of Mount Snowpeak.
Use the plane service to get to West Grassy Plains, Mt. Snowpeak, etc. Every city has a plane service that takes you directly to the major areas or dungeons.
I ... didn't know that. Goddammit.

Got 9 streetpasses now that Fantasy Life isn't in the first slot on streetpass management. This was in two passes at the relay today. Four more days of this might be overkill...
I think it's the Joyeuse. I haven't crafted it myself, but got it from the Crowned Champion after finishing the story. And I think the strongest 2H sword is the Crescent Blade. Btw, these are names from my NA copy, so names might be different.

What is the best cloth/armor for wizard? I have the DLC, my lvl is 91
Once you reach Creator (God in Europe, apparently) in all twelve Life classes,
Divinus will bestow upon you the ability to wear any class of clothing. So your wizard will be able to wear armor.
But I've been rockin' this outfit with satisfactory results:
Rainbow Hood
Rainbow Robe
Shadow Gauntlets
Shadow Boots
There are better hoods and robes than this but I can't make them yet because I haven't gotten very far in the tower (mainly due to lack of serious effort). So I'm missing some ingredients.
To tempt you into making a female avatar instead of a male one. 😉Why did they give me a load of female-only armour at the top of the Origin Island tower?
It's a shame that male avatars cannot wear things that are deemed female-only by the devs. I wish the game wouldn't restrict me from putting Valkyrie armor on my guy avatar.
It's in the area with the guild office. On the right side of that area. There should be a butterfly request related to that.
The story guides you past the houses, can't miss them
Does it? I know the ones in Port Puerto and Al Maajik do, but I don't recall the story showing me the next homes. I had to talk to the seller myself.
Now you say so, I think you're right yeah. The houses are just there. At the least the villages are very small so it's hard to miss them if you talk to NPC's.
Yeah, what the deal with that? It sucks getting a bounty in the Elderwood and having to travel all the way to Castele to turn it in.
A bounty clerk and a guild master should've been in every town.
