"Can the remnants of our past lead us to a future...?"
Dragon Quest: Legacy of the Lost is a fangame highly inspired by Dragon Warrior 7. The game will feature the shard system and time travel aspect found in Dragon Warrior 7. The underlying story, however, is not the same and besides the time travelling portion, no plot sequence will be taken from Dragon Warrior 7.
STORYLINE:
“Join a story that spans the ages! Through a series of seemingly unrelated events, a young man finds himself in the middle of a divine conflict. Picking up allies along the way, the man will confront the darkness and bring back the legacy of the lost!”
The world of Araginol is at peace… or so it seems. As far back as the people of this land can recall there is little in terms of land. The continent of Erdrich is all that has been discovered by seafarers and captains of the seas…
“How can this be? Is it truly possible that the world be so small?”
Unknown to the people of the current era, Araginol had once consisted of several islands and continents. Through the power of the demon lord, the islands that occupied Araginol fell one by one, eventually leaving no remnant of their passing.
Just when it seems Erdrich has been spared from this tragedy, several unfortunate events begin to plague the land. It is up to you, the hero, to traverse the rifts of time and save the world from evil’s vile clutches!

The final patch for the game has arrived! Many players were looking for a larger post-game, like many Dragon Quest games offer, and this patch aims to add that extra challenge for players!
The patch does a lot more than add the final content though. It fixes many issues and makes many adjustments to the game to make it hopefully more fun for the player! I've put a lot of work into this patch and thanks to my diligent testers, I am fairly certain that it will be bug free!
The patch notes are pretty comprehensive. The details are either in the PDF file here or in the spoiler tags below. I hope you all enjoy the final update and patch for Legacy of the Lost!
Story Related:

- A new item, “Repellant”, and a new spell, “Repel”, was added to prevent monster encounters.
- The achievement “The Ultimate Mage”, that required you to attain an essence of MegaMagic is no longer an achievement. Instead, the achievement is “The Ultimate Hunter” which requires you to defeat every notorious monster. This was done so that it is possible to get all achievements on any playthrough.
- A NPC very early in the game was added to make mention of the “Who Needs the Church!?” achievement.
- It is now harder to obtain Teal and Violet Medals. In addition, Metalys and Metabbles now run away at a higher frequency.

- The portal in Wyubori Volcano plays the intended shorter animation.
- Hopefully all issues where the hero is called “Aldain” regardless of your name have been fixed.
- It was impossible to clear the achievement “This is Yardrick (Past)!!!” if you cleared the present arena first. This has been fixed.
- When crossing a certain area in the shrine, Aldain’s graphic would reset to default regardless of costume. This has been fixed.
- Many NPCs incorrectly referred to the Phoenix as Pheonix.
- Issues with final battle 1 and 3 as a result of failing the battle / the timing in which you killed certain bosses / and re-challenging the boss fight upon game completion have been fixed. The issues involved certain bosses being locked into a set attack phase and the final boss being harder than he should be if you cleared the game.

- Various typos have been fixed.

If You Are Playing an Old File (Notice):
*If you are playing from an old version file:*
Even though the level cap has raised to 60, your level will stay at 50. In addition, any skills learned from the new version will not be learned naturally as you level.
However, you can still “level” past 50 and gain all the skills you missed! For files registered as old, several new NPC’s have been added in the Great Shrine. Head the where the saint’s plaque was located to find the ghosts of your past heroes. NOTE: Olian will only appear if you managed to recruit him. Also, when you clear the game, a monster ghost will appear that will grant an exclusive armor called monster mastery to replicate the effect of leveling from 50-60.
Leveling Up:
Each ghost will present you with a log item (Hero’s Log, Mage’s Log, Maiden’s Log, Cleric’s Log). When you use the item, it will perform a level check on how much experience is needed to reach level 51. When you hit the required experience, using the item will play the level up sound, display your stat changes and permanently increase your stats. The stat gains are exactly the same as if you had played the new version normally. Next time you use the item, it compares your EXP to level 52 and continues all the way to level 60. Note: If you gained a lot of excess experience past 50 on your old file, you may/will need to use the item multiple times to gain all of your hard-earned level ups!
Acquiring Missing Skills:
Each ghost will present you with a skillset item (Hero’s Skillset, Mage’s Skillset, Maiden’s Skillset, and Cleric’s Skillset). Using the item will replace your old skills with the new ones (Maiden’s Skillset also works if your old file caused Melody to be missing some arcanist spells). The game won’t inform you of changes, so check the charts below to see when you should use the item (it has unlimited use).

any chance on a update to the game manual/zealotry?
Absolutely! I do admit I'm falling a little behind on completing it, but I will certainly finish it one day. :)
I just wanted to say you've made something of a masterpiece here! I owned Dragon Quest V as a kid and this has brought back so many good memories, and has subsequently taken away a similarly large amount of hours away from my life. Thank you very much for finding a way to entertain me during my freetime, as it's a task few things manage to accomplish these days.

I'm glad you're enjoying it!! It is really nice to see comments like this. :)
Don't mention it! You deserve all the praise you can get. :)
I've just gotten to the point in the game where the guide ends, and unfortunately it had become sort of a crutch for me. D: I know it's probably too much to ask for you to complete the whole thing, so instead I was wondering if you could send me a PM of missable items/events in the game that could be important? I want to keep playing, but I'm stressed I'll miss out on something good and it will haunt me for life!
Well... maybe not for life... but maybe you understand. :P
I saw you also sent a list of Onyu recruits to some others before, so if you still have that could you perhaps add it to the PM as well? If you have time to send the information at all, of course.
I've gotten everything before Yuria, so I'm just curious about everything after. It would go greatly appreciated! Again, thanks again for this awesome game! Free entertainment rarely gets better than this.

Well I got impatient and kept playing through the game, guide or no. Not a bad decision on my part. :D
I ran into a bit of a snag, however. When I get to Yu'Tulio (I think that's how it's spelled...), there's a point at which I can't progress anymore. I've tried going almost everywhere I've been so far, especially checking the ice cavern thoroughly, and yet I'm still stumped. Here's my problem:
Anyways, the problem totally keeps me from moving forward with the game. I'm hoping that there's one little event or conversation I haven't activated and it's not a game-breaking glitch. :/

Rosa can't be found anywhere after she runs out of the bar. I have Melody in my party at all times, and yet she won't appear in the Crystal Caverns after the block-pushing puzzle. I've looked through all the rest of the cave, and nothing. When I talk to the people around town, Melody still chimes in and says "I need to meet her" once they mention the beautiful dancer, like they did before. But everyone in the bar still reacts to her running out. Is there a step I'm missing here?

No glitch! Rosa ran off, but not to the cavern. NPCs in the town will mention that she appeared to be headed towards Yardrick, the closest neighboring island.
Melody begins to fear for her dad's life.
If you need more help than that, let me know. :)

Hi, there^^
I'm enjoying the very good game and would say it's one of the best or even the best rpgmaker game I've played sofar. I came to over 60 gamehours and got the blackshard now for the last land. So thanks and good job.
I also would like to see the completed guide.
My question is how to get the Aqua shield to make the Ogre shield. It's the missing material to make it. I didn't happen to come across it.

I'm glad you're enjoying it! You can find Aqua Shield from the Grakos mobs in the Crystal Caverns in Yu'Tolio past time. :)
author=Orias_Obderhodeahh okay, thanks. One of the rare drops from a monster. Yes, I engaged Grakos like 10 or 20 times in Yu'Tolio, and he will drop it sometime then when I meet it. Okaay
I'm glad you're enjoying it! You can find Aqua Shield from the Grakos mobs in the Crystal Caverns in Yu'Tolio past time. :)
I havn't got every drop from a monster yet. I just hope the odds are not too high to get it. I felt that once I got a rare drop from a monster the frequency to get more of that rare drop increases slightly. Just a feeling though, since the mathematical odds stays the same I think.
Hi Orias
I think I found a bug in the game. Melody can't do Oomph. She is supposed to be buffed with Oomph, Buff, Resist and Restore during her Arcane Benison Ritual while killing the required monster. But she does not have it on her ability list to do and none of my other party members can do it. The other 3 things she can do.
Or perhaps I should abandon it and get Olians Runic Aurora.
The guide states she can do Oomph after getting class upgrade. She is fully upgraded at Level cap. Also All other party members, too.

Hey! Melody is unfortunately supposed to have Oomph, but only if you weren't overleveled when you did the class change. I discovered after the last patch that if your level was over 29 when you unlocked Arcanist, she would never learn the Oomph ability.
I am intending to release the final patch (with a lot of new things added) in 3-6 months, but until then, I'll be happy to make any modifications. If you send me your file through PM, I can modify her ability list to be what it is supposed to be.
Okay, I'll send you my Savegame. I see, there is still new things and newer patch coming but takes time, okay.

Ohh my gooosh! The Final Battle 1 is kinda too hard, like class A and S of the arenas.

Thanks for the support! I'm in the process of making the final patch for the game with some pretty big changes, it might be good to wait until it's done. :)
I just saw this game for the first time because I usually blow past dragon quest games since I like games where I can see my little character sprites in battle(it doesn't sound like a big deal but the final fantasy nostalgia is stuck in my brain) But I'll definitely have to give this one a try, it looks great! I'm going to wait for this big patch you've been writing about but I'm excited to give it a whirl.
These are the best places to farm them:
Wyuto Region
Wintersnake (common encounter) - 5%
Summersname (common encounter in volcano) - 5%
Aiatar (rare encounter on lower floor in volcano) - 100%
Persiva Region
Coatol - (medium encounter in the fields) - 50%
A handful of required battles drop them too. Earning 4 achievement points nets you 10 scales and if you recruit 12 people to Onyu, you can buy them in the shop for 2000 gold.
