Return to the main path, then head a short distance ahead and open the chest holdingnine Potion S. Shimmy across the rock wall, thenclimb further up the mountain ramps. After you get to the point where youjump across a gap, turn to the left andslide along the wallto open a chest holding anAmethyst M. Head back along the wall and continue to the next area.
Equip Zinikr with the Amethyst M, as this will make the boss fight later much easier.
In this area, turn down the path to the right to get thechest holding five Hard Shells, thenjump over the gap. Ignore the chest in the area below for now, then head up the stairs. There’s alocked Machine Chestin the building on the left that you’ll also have to ignore, for now. Instead, follow thepath between the two buildingsto find a chest containing10,000 gold.

Lyranodon Boss Guide
The Lyranodon isweak to earthbutabsorbs lightning, and is essentiallyunaffected by status ailments. The battle will begin with the boss being joined bytwo Lightning Orblings, and one of them will immediately target the boss with lightning, which it will then absorb andadd to its charge level.
As the Lyranodon absorbs lightning, itscharge level will increase further, until it reacheslevel four, at which point it will unleashThunderstorm, dealing damage to the whole party. Here are each of the Lyranodon’s attacks.
This fight is designed to teach you how to use your two new party members, Zinikr and Ez, with each character representing a different strategy. The real danger in this fight isn’t actually the boss itself, but theLightning Orblings it repeatedly summons. These willconstantly target the boss with lightning attackswhich it will absorb,healing it and increasing its charge level.
Call will bringsix more Orblings to the fight, which can quickly get overwhelming if you don’t deal with them quickly. The main strategy for this fight is touse Zinikr’s Taunt to draw the lightning attacksfrom the Lightning Orblings to himself,preventing the boss from absorbing them.
With theAmethyst Myou looted earlier, Zinikr will takegreatly reduced damagefrom these lightning strikes, allowing Leo and Ez to focus on taking down the Lightning Orblings and damaging the boss.
Ez’s Terra Grenadeis also made for this fight, dealing1,500 damage to at least four Lightning Orblingsand the boss itself with each use. Justbe mindful of your item stockbefore committing heavily to Terra Grenades, as you may run out before the fight is over.
If the boss is able to use Thunderstorm, this attack will not only deal damage to the party, it will alsoknock you backward a step, towards the edge of the cliff. If you are hit by Thunderstorm enough times, you willfall off the cliff and get an instant Game Over. Using the strategies outlined above, there’s probably no chance of this happening, but keep it in mind regardless.
Continue Taunting the Lightning Orblings and healing through the boss’s attacks, and you’ll eventually take it down, allowing you to continue into the Outskirts, one step closer to the Royal Capital and Leo’s third Toy Box.
