Breath of Fire III/The Lost Shore

Kombinat and Surroundings
Getting off the ship, you will discover that you have arrived in a strange, very technological city. The population is partly made up of machine soldiers and people also look like robots. If you talk to them, they will give you very little information. However, there is an inn where you can restore your energy, an item shop and an armory, where you can buy very powerful (and very expensive) weapons and protections. Hidden behind a building in the upper right is a robot. If you talk to it, it will ask you something in incomprehensible language. Answer with the third option from above and the robot will give you a Homing Bomb. After you've done, get out of the city. You will automatically camp and witness some scenes, in which the various characters express their thoughts.

Once on the World Map, you will discover that the continent on this side of the ocean is much more desert. However, there are some areas to explore before proceeding. You will find a flowerbed, from which you can access the Fairy Village. Not far away, there is a Yggdrasil grove, the same as that in Eastern Wyndia. In this area you will find the Trance gene. Along the coast east of Kombinat, you will find a fishing spot where you can catch the biggest fish in the game. You can also barter your catch with Manillo and buy some very valuable items. Finally, head to the Steel Grave, northeast of Kombinat.

Steel Grave
This area is like a giant junkyard, which creates a kind of labyrinth. The enemies you will encounter are not very dangerous, but you will have to watch out for the Assassins, as they have an attack that can reduce the HP of the hit character to 1. It is advisable to take Momo with you, because you will need her bazooka. From the entrance, first proceed north-west and follow the path until you reach a ladder. Go up and you will find UV-Glasses in a chest. Go back and follow the path to the southeast this time. Climb the ladder, proceed to the right and go down the inclined plane. In a narrow passage, you will find a chest with Speed Boots. Go back to the raised platform and examine the area with the square holes in the floor. In one of them there is a ladder: go down. You will arrive in a room with a rotten door. Use Momo's bazooka to take it down. In the next room you will find a chest containing the Spanner, the strongest fishing rod in the game. Go back upstairs and proceed east. To the north, you will find the path that will lead you to the exit of the Steel Grave. Once on the World Map, you can freely cross this area without having to enter it. Do this if you want to go back to the fishing spot and catch big fish more easily. To the north-east you will also notice a mysterious city, which you will not be able to reach. Head to the Colony to the north, taking Momo with you.
