Final Fantasy Blackmoon Prophecy

Not doing too well at solving this game am I? Stuck now in the Illusionary Castle. I have defeated Mirilith and am faced with the stone dragoon. I assumed that I would use the supersoft, but I can't select it from my inventory.

Where's the "hide" button for posts? Can't see it anywhere. Perhaps I'm getting too old for all this.

Wow, you're keeping track of how many you've fought?!

Yeah, I got into obsessive mode when I noticed that it was taking a long time. I wouldn't normally.

How many skins are required again anyway?
12.

Also I'm curious, how are the vomammoths faring against your party, and what are their levels? Vomammoths aren't the toughest enemies in the game, or even close to it, but my aim was to still make them give a decent fight to almost anyone who isn't decked out in the best equipment.
I'm doing pretty well against them. Because I have Nobumasa's gear from the Tower of Trials and the sword from King Zemus in the Ancient Castle, plus gear from some optional(?) areas, my team are well kitted out. Due to the endless wandering around getting the treasures, I'm actually higher than I'd intended to be, average level 75 or so. That still means that they take significant damage from blizzard, or whatever it is. But I survive and can skip over to Costa del Vita to heal up when needed.

EDIT
Meant to ask - when does Temple Kas'ion become available? At the moment the NPC tells me that it's only for those "who have conquered the greatest foes".

On the subject of creating work for you...

Would you consider looking at the drop rate for vomammouth skins needed for the side quest? I have now killed 37 of the blighters for precisely 2 skins. While this may be great for levelling up and getting money (what with this and all the random encounters you get treasure hunting, I really don't think the lack of money from the Trei jar will inconvenience players late game) it does make completing this side quest an exceptionally slow and tedious process.

EDIT
3rd skin came on fight 62. At this rate my party will be drawing their pensions before they've finished.

Was it one of the treasures that is tucked away in a little corner in the mountains or something? A few treasures are like that. ;)


It was actually a little outside what appears to be the edge of the red area.

If you still can't find that treasure, I can try to pinpoint where to find it.

You, sir, are a gentleman. I've carried on and done several other things, but it is irritating not to be able to find the thing and it would be nice to get the treasure hunts finished.

EDIT
Quite literally, within 30 seconds of posting the above, I found it. Thanks for the offer anyway.

Borealis Cave is the location you want to be in.
Ah, I see. Because I was transported out of the cave after fighting Cagnazzo, I assumed that was it. Back to the fray then!
Thanks.

EDIT
I am, of course, a Grade A idiot. Now I think about it, getting Cagnazzo was all that was needed. sigh, perhaps I need a vacation.

Final Fantasy Blackmoon Prophecy

I'm wondering if another couple of events have gone walkabout.
The first (less important) one is about the Jumbo Cactur which is supposed to be on Cactur Island (which I am assuming is that piece of land with Kaipo on it). Because I only picked up the Treasure Hunters' Guild now, I've been going round collecting the treasures, and #5 is in this region. Having walked every tile in the indicated area several times - I was at this for well over an hour - I haven't found the treasure, but neither have I met the Cactur, which surprises me as even if it were a random encounter I would have expected to have done so by now.
The second, more important, one is the cave to get access to Lindblum Castle. The direction given by the NPC is that it is in a cave east of where the castle used to be. I have gone pixel-hunting over the whole area. There's Sodden Depths (which I re-did, just in case), Borealis Cave (done) Osteinchyl, nothing there, and Regent's Retreat, double-checked. As far as I can see, there is no other cave east of the castle. I have visited every location indicated by a coloured dot on the mini-map, and all are accounted for.
Help!

- Removed attack bonus of Yasuragi.

Aaaggghhhhhh
I loved this.

EDIT
Been back to Mithril mine and there he is, so that's sorted. Thanks

Final Fantasy Blackmoon Prophecy

maybe a subsequent update did nasty things to him?

Final Fantasy Blackmoon Prophecy

Yes, I got Bosche first time round, which is why I know that his 'hint' is that he wants artifacts not mithril. Anyway, I've crawled over Garamonde and, unless you've cunningly disguised him as a shrub, he's not there.
