Now that the sport is lastly out, I assumed it will be useful to listing and clarify a number of the submit sport secrets and techniques tucked away in Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake.

Clearly, from right here on in, there can be very main spoilers, so you’ve gotten been warned.

If you wish to discover out extra in regards to the sport, then undoubtedly check out my review first.

HEAVY SPOILERS FOLLOW

Dragon Quest I

Farming Liquid Metallic Slimes

That is extra about supplying you with a heads-up on how you can farm liquid metallic slimes. Identical to within the Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake, liquid metallic slimes reside within the Dragonlord’s fortress. Nonetheless, you don’t have spells like Puff or thieves with Murderer’s Stab that will help you out. What you want is a Metallic Wing Boomerang (from farming Mini Medals), made particularly for damaging metal-based targets, and a capability referred to as Wild Facet.

The latter means that you can take two assaults per flip for a short time. So as soon as some liquid metallic slimes seem, hit that capability and simply use a daily assault with the boomerang. In fairly a number of cases, I’ve killed 4 liquid metallic slimes in a row, little doubt all the way down to the sigils that improve your important hit price (which you’ll have unlocked by then anyway).

Erdrick’s Full Armor Set

Like within the unique sport, you get Erdrick’s mark, sword, and armor on this sport. Nonetheless, now you can additionally get Erdrick’s helm and protect. The previous is by following Zalen round till he unlocks a dialogue with the faeries. You’ll then be taken to the Western Isle, the place the prior Erdrick landed in Alefgard, to seek out Ortega’s grave with the Auroral Helm on prime.

The protect is extra easy, however you will have the Final Key to get it. Go to the Weeping Isle, and there’s a dead-end alcove outdoors with a bunch of treasure chests (it’s on the left-hand facet of the map). The protect is within the chest that wants the Final Key to unlock.

When you equip all the gadgets within the set, your in-game character artwork will change to replicate that, which is fairly neat (it even updates the loading display animation, too).

Dragon Quest II

Repairing The Sword Of Erdrick

After getting the worn-out Sword of Erdrick from the Dragonlord’s Nice Grandson, you’ll be able to restore it by discovering some Orichalcum and taking it to the blacksmith in Kol (he’s within the weapon store on the highest ground close to the shopkeeper), who will restore it for you.

Discovering the Orichalcum is a quest, however to avoid wasting you a while, it’s within the Craggy Cave, hidden away. It is nonetheless a good suggestion to Zoom about and observe the hunt line to unlock its precise location, although.

Misplaced Reminiscences And Farming Expertise

In contrast to within the first sport, there’s a faster and simpler method to max out your occasion to stage 99, and this ties into discovering all of the Misplaced Reminiscences hidden within the ocean.

There are seven in all, and whereas a number of are already marked in your map, there are extra hidden within the deep ocean, with some unlocked from powerful boss fights.

When you’ve finished all this, you’ll have the faeries that the dwarves have returned and that they guard the doorway to the Cave of Confusion.

This can be a actually lengthy dungeon made up of ranges from the varied Erdrick Trilogy video games, with bizarre exits for every.

The excellent news is that the enemies right here give plenty of expertise and fairly a bit of money. If in case you have your HP and MP set to reload on levelling up, you’ll be able to max out your characters right here very quickly in any respect.

On the finish of the dungeon is the Sphere of Light.

The Sphere Of Gentle And The Dragonlord’s Nice Grandson

Taking this again to the Dragonlord’s Nice Grandson, who remains to be very pleasant, he’ll take up the Sphere of Gentle and turn out to be the Gentle Dragon his line was all the time meant to be.

He challenges you to a battle to check your may, and in defeating him, he’ll improve the Sword and Protect of Erdrick to the Supreme Sword and Protect of Erdrick.

You should have wanted to restore all Sword of Erdrick and bought the protect as effectively by this level. Once more, all elements of the armor set are on this remake as they’re within the unique sport.

Defeating the Dragonlord’s Nice Grandson additionally unlocks the true enemy that corrupted Hargon all these centuries in the past.

The Actual Last Boss

That is the principle unhealthy man after you defeated each Hargon and Malroth. The brand new finish boss known as Malwrath and is considerably just like Calasmos on the finish of Dragon Quest XI (he even has the identical music).

In that, it’s essential to use the Supreme Sword of Erdrick, imbued with the facility from the Sphere of Gentle, to forged Malwrath’s evil protect away, after which it’s a tricky boss battle to kill him off.

Like in Dragon Quest XI, you even have some assist from a flying friend, however that and the occasions that occur after are so that you can get pleasure from, and gained’t be revealed right here.

All that stated and finished, I’d strongly suggest maxing out your whole occasion to stage 99 earlier than combating this boss.

General, there’s plenty of nice submit sport stuff right here, particularly within the second sport. My solely minor gripe is that I felt the ultimate secret boss ought to have been Calasmos, as Dragon Quest XI was a prequel to the unique Erdrick Trilogy. That apart, it’s all nice, particularly as all the brand new story beats now tie the entire trilogy collectively.

Observe me on X, Facebook and YouTube. I additionally handle Mecha Damashii and am presently featured within the Giant Robots exhibition presently touring Japan.
