Trial Mode - Stages 11 to 20

Tips on how to complete each of the Stages and a list of the items that can be picked up from treasure chests or stolen from the enemies. Note that you need to have Diamond Armlet equipped in order to obtain the treasure listed. Opening the treasure chest without a Diamond Armlet will result in you receiving consumable and expendable items.

Stage 15
Elder Wyrm
Battle against Elder Wyrm during Trial Mode - Stage 15

This battle against the Elder Wyrm is similar to the battle in Golmore Jungle, during the second visit after you had reached Eruyt Village. Elder Wyrm can inflict a number of status effects using its Sporefall attack which can cause the Confuse, Oil, Poison and Blind status effects. Some of its other moves can inflict Slow, Sleep and Silence.

Make sure that you have Gambits in place to deal with status effects – have Handkerchiefs, Remedies and an Esuna Gambit ready to go. You can also equip items, such as Ribbons, Rose Corsages, etc. to deal with them.

Mateus
Battle against Mateus during Trial Mode Stage 16

This boss battle is similar to the battle against Mateus in the Stilshrine of Miriam. Cast Protect, Shell and Haste on your party members – Shell will reduce the amount of damage that Mateus does as most of its attacks are Magick based. Use Thunder, Thundara and Thundaga to bring her down quickly.

Stolen from Mateus:

- Rare: Icebrand

Treasure Chests:
- Scale Armor
- Poach

Stage 17

You can use Blind to greatly reduce the amount of damage done by this dragon and make the fight easier. You can also use Fire-elemental Magicks to bring it down quickly (or summon Belias).

Stolen:
- Common: Bone Helm
- Uncommon: Pirate Hat
- Rare: Black Cowl

Treasure Chests:
- Tourmaline Ring
- Thunder

Stage 19
Earth Tyrant
Battle against Earth Tyrant during Trial Mode Stage 19

This battle is against the same dragon that you fight as part of the Earth Tyrant side quest. It doesn’t have a ton of HP but it will increase its defenses significantly when it falls below 50% of its HP, so be prepared for a long and drawn out fight. Be ready to clear your party members of the Poison status effect and heal your way through the AoE attacks.

Stolen:
- Common: Broadaxe
- Uncommon: Hornito
- Rare: Main Gauche

Treasure Chests:
- Leather Gorget
- Fiery Arrows

Stage 20
Vulture (x6)
Battle against Vultures during Trial Mode Stage 20

This battle is Vulture enemies – the same type that can be found in the Mosphoran Highwaste. This is one of the easier battles compared to the last few, but you will need to have ranged attacks set up. Focus on using bows, guns or hand-bombs, activate the Telekinesis Technick, or have your Magick-heavy party members join for this battle.

Treasure Chests:
- Stone Bolts
- Rose Corsage

You will receive an additional reward for completing Stage 11 through 20 which includes:
