| Location | Recommended Level (for Hero) | Treasure | Enemies (Weakness) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cave to Maberia | Level 6 | Potion, Potion, Power Potion, Miracle, Daze Ring | Baby Crab (Fire), Bore Worm (Fire), Giant Bat (Water), Green Orb, Kobold, Nettles |
They aren't new, but Giant Bats are weak to Lufia's Dew spell, which can wipe out an entire group of them. Kobolds can drop Mid Arrows, which will be very useful in the near future as well.
From the entrance, walk to the right. You will see some steps above you, past the bridge, but that will take you to the exit, so let's go exploring for now. Climb the rope ladder to the upper platform and cross the bridge where you will find a chest which contains a POTION. Take the nearby steps to the next floor.
It's a dead end, but you will find two chests which contain a POTION and POWER POTION. Back up the stairs, walk into the pit to the left. Take the upper warp point to a straight-forward path to find HP and MP restoring tiles. Return to the warp point, then take the lower one back to the entrance. Now, go under the bridge to the steps you passed up earlier to the next floor.
Have the hero cast Float, so you can walk through the swamp unharmed. In the middle of it is a hidden MIRACLE. There's nothing to the left, so continue down the path to a room with a chest which contains a DAZE RING (equip on Aguro, DFP+8, MGR+4). Although Aguro has the best defense, his magic resistance is pitiful and can use all the help it can get. Leave the room and take the path to the left to the stairs to the next floor.
If Lufia has not reached Level 7 yet (which she should w/o level-grinding), then make sure to finish it off, so that she can learn Strong. Head left to the stairs to reach the island where you will find the Maberia. You will want to restore everyone to max HP with Potions before approaching it.
| Boss Time: Goblins x3 |

| HP: 125 each |
| Weakness: None |
| Strategy: Hopefully, you will have picked up some Mid Arrows from those Kobolds earlier. If so, have the Hero and Aguro use them on the Goblins until you exhaust your supply, when they should start attacking. Meanwhile, Lufia should be casting Dew in the first round, then Strong on whoever needs it in each subsequent round. If necessary, you can have the Hero join in the healing too, but it would be best to take down at least one of the Goblins before doing so. Taking one of them down early makes the rest of the fight a lot easier. |
Afterwards, you'll return to Treck. Rest up at the inn, then head left to the pub. Go upstairs and talk to the captain of the Maberia to head to Lorbenia.
