Extra dungeons in FF1

Citizen Bleys · 02-15-2005, 02:12 PM

So I've got the GBA (DoS) version of FF1. I've whooped Tiamat's arse (and WarMech's, although the new name of Death Machine officially BLOWS) in about the same time it took me to get to Elfland in the real thing. So now I'm over 50, per the advice in an earlier thread here, so I decided to try out the Earthgift shrine...

...and wished I hadn't wasted my time. The dungeons are annoying, the mobs are too weak to be worthwhile, and although the bosses are kind of fun, you have to warp to the beginning and go through the Dungeon of Annoyance to get back to where you were so you can fight the other 3. There doesn't seem to be anything *in* the dungeons other than bad treasure, and the bosses drop the most useless crap known to man.

Are the other shrines any better, or just more of the same garbage? If I wanted to fight mobs my white wizard can one-shot for 0 exp and crappy drops, I'd wander in circles around Coneria (not calling it Cornelia). I'd rather wander around Tiamat's Tower and level up some (Although I haven't been able to make WarMech respawn since I've killed him

)

They say Sephiroths a hidden boss in DOS dungeon. Anyone know?

All the more reason to stay the hell out.

The best weapons and armor in the game can be found in the Soul of Chaos dungeons. There is some randomization to what treasure you get each time you go through one of them, but I've gotten at least one of every item and piece of equipment without too much trouble.

Death Machine was its original name. "Warmech" is an artifact from the abominable NES translation.

Please don't be silly.

Best weapons and armor? These bosses are dropping potions

Here. The items at the end of each list, separated from the others by a double-space, are the new items in DoS.

Weapons
Armor

Also, check the bestiary to see what the bosses and enemies can drop.

Hellfire Chasm was more fun, I got to kill Scharmiglone and Rubicante.
