A Grinding We Will Go!
Posted by Mike Blitz on January 1st, 2007
I’ve wandered around every nook and cranny of the little town, and spoken to everyone I can speak with. There doesn’t seem to be a way to simply walk out of town and explore. The only exits seem to be the three warp zones scattered about the town. One leads to Jade, which I have completely explored. One leads to the Ultima Weapon dragon-thingie, which I have completely explored. The last one leads to a replica of Pandemonium, which seems to be the only place left for me to go. There really doesn’t seem to be much of a mystery left what to do: Go kill stuff in Pandemonium.
There is one problem, however: the monsters in Pandemonium are tough. I made it to the second level yesterday before wiping out twice on pairs of Gold Golems, which hit for 1,000-1,500 points each. They kill us in one shot, and we can only do about 400 damage on them per turn, given our weak spell and weapon attacks.
At this point I’m going to churn around the lower levels of Pandemonium and try to build up my skills before making a serious assault for the top.
