Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation/Item collection: Part 2



There are a lot of optional goodies to pick up before moving on. The Slimopolis, for example, is an optional area where you can pit any slimes you have recruited against other monsters in an arena. You can get prizes from this, but, the worthwhile ones are only achievable by beating monsters that are too strong right now. Still, you will want to go there just to get 1 or 3 Mini Medals (depending on the version).



Sail northwest of the Sunken Ship, and you should find an underwater shrine. Search on the spot marked in the left picture for a Mini Medal, then surface your ship, and sail onto a northern mass of land to find another well. Enter it, and it should take you to where the Slimopolis is.

This place has been locked by the same floodgates that had blocked us from going to Pescado before, and the Floodgate Key won't work this time. So walk just a little bit down, then a little bit to the right, and you should see another shrine. Step on the yellow switch that you find within it, and Slimopolis will be open to the public once again! But before you do anything there, warp to Medford's Manor for the Miracle Sword.

More Dreamscapes (Remakes only)


If you are playing on the remakes, go to the Church listed on this map and search the left bookcase; you should get a Coal Mine dreamscape from it, bringing your count up to 5. Once you do that, you can Zoom back to Suite Dreams.

The Slimopolis


Remember that floating island you got after killing Jamirus? Well it had three treasures you couldn't get to before; but now you can! Rest at the personal Inn inside your island, then loot the cellars for a Hela's Armour, a Magic Water, and a Mini Medal! Do note this though; the Hela's Armour will automatically drop the wearer's Agility to 0. However, it can be removed at will, it provides a lot of Resilience, and sports a 15 point resistance to Frizz, Sizz, Bang, and Fire attacks. It's not worth equipping for random battles, but it is invaluable for boss fights; do not sell it!

Next is the Jail; it gives you both a Magma Staff (not good as a weapon, but sells for 5500G) and another Mini Medal! Then, make sure to switch to a Slime only party before entering the Slimopolis. Otherwise, you will not be able to enter the door at point C. Speaking of slimes, one can clear out Ranks G-D right now, so long as they provide Healie or Goowain with optimal gear, and remove their vocation! In fact, one could even go up to Rank C if they're on the remakes, and have recruited Goowain. Unlike the SNES version, the remake A.I. will use whichever items you give it, such as the Fire Claw and Ghent Staff. SNES players, however, will simply have to make due with whatever spells their slime naturally knows.

SNES players do not lose anything of note, however. The most useful prize here is the Hermes Hat, Milly and Nevan's strongest helmet available right now; and that can be one at Rank H (the easiest one). Every other prize up to Rank C just amounts to liquidation fodder.

More Items


Zoom back to Dream World Somnia and go inside the castle. You should be able to collect a Mini Medal and some Boxer Shorts from the cellars in the upper-right corner of the first floor. Zoom back to Slimopolis and ride the flying bed directly south to the shrine again, then fly immediately west of it. You should eventually run into some rocky mountains; start going south until you are able to fly onto the continent, then keep going west. You should see another set of stairs leading down to the Real World. Take them, go up, and you should run into the town of Turnscote!

Add that to your Zoom list, Zoom to Turnscote to get your ship back, then sail to the Shrine north of Turnscote to get another Mini Medal! Then Zoom to the following locations to get these items:

Port Haven: 1500G and a Mini Medal in the cellars.

Somnia (Real World): Platinum Shield and a Mini Medal from the cellars in the upper-right corner of the first floor.

'''Arkbolt: Mini Medal and Poison Needle from the cellars in the upper-right corner of the third floor. Then another Mini Medal from the cellars in the lower-right corner of the third floor.'''

Howcastle: Platinum Mail and Mini Medal from the locked door on the first floor.





Go to point 6 underwater after raiding Howcastle. All players will you'll find a Poison Needle in the drawers. In the remakes, you will also find the Serene Seabed Dreamscape, hidden in the left bookcase! That will bring you up to 6 total Dreamscapes if you have been following the guide; one more, and Mobile users can Recruit Curie! But for now, go to Fashion Forge, then get a Mini Medal from the underwater Inn.

Warp back to Turnscote, and sail your ship to Poseidon's Palace at point 3; you'll a Mini Medal, a Kerplunk Bracer (automatically restore every person, even dead ones, to 100% HP upon the wearer's death), a Silver Tray (one of the only shields that Milly and Healie can use), and a Watermaul Wand (mostly worthless, but sells for a lot). And remake players can fetch the Strangers at Sea Dreamscape from the lone bookshelf!



The Silver Platter and Kerplunk Bracer are especially valuable; do not ever sell the Silver Platter, and do not waste the Kerplunk Bracer yet! You will dearly need it for either the final boss, or the post-game boss. With that said, go on to Felonia, the last destination you must visit to get the 60 Mini Medal reward!

Felonia


Avoid the Frighturn, if playing the SNES; it has 300 Defense and can cast Beat. It does have a 100% chance of dropping a Seed of Resilience in the remakes, however. If you wish to fight it, Sap away all of it's Defense, and don't attempt to use attack magic, debuffs, or Knuckle Sandwich on it; it is high resistant to all of those.

You should now have 60 Mini Medals and 9 Dreamscapes; that will allow you to get the Sacred Armour, one of the best in the game! It regenerates 30 or 50 HP per turn (depending on the version), sports the 7th highest Resilience of any armour in the game, and even comes in handy for a future mini-game. Mobile players can also get Curie at Suite Dreams if you wish, along with Shelley at the Undersea Inn. Whatever the case, be sure your party looks something like this...
