chiefbigcalf, these screens of the Forgotten Grove is just the path to the boss. You already beat him so you can't go there again.

In the Tidal Sanctum these door is blocked I think. You can't go there, because this dungeon was also from Light of the Heavens DX and the dungeon is already beaten in that game ;D Not from a previous demo

Chiefbigcalf: Those steps just lead up to the boss room. It's sealed off now that you've beaten the boss. If you're looking for items in that area, there's two heart halves total, both of which are found by bombing through walls near the northeast end of the map.

Like Avataro said, Tidal Sanctum was a full dungeon in the first game. It's been reduced to just a small explorable area here though, so certain paths (like that locked door) are blocked off. The only things you can do here are get a small key to use at the top of Palm Island and fight a hard optional boss.

Da Masta Sord: Yeah, I probably should have explained it a little better. Moosh actually helped design that dungeon, and he loves Windrobes. I was against them at first, but then he added in the Orbitars being insta-charged by them, and I tested them out and thought "Okay, that's fair." It didn't even occur to me that people might not try the Orbitars against them.

Where is the red tunic, anyway.

I made it to the ??? room in the starlit heavens.

Strike Down the assassin 3 times, didn't I already I'm on the sky tower.

Wait there is another sacred metal.


Let me guess the Red Tunic is in one of theese doors.

Got the red tunic, Beat the secret boss with no deaths!

I'm stuck on the last dungeon, I have 3 keys with Dracus.

I don't know where the locked doors are.

Whoa, good job! That's no easy feat. Congrats!

Okay, there are three total locked doors on Dracus's side. In Area 2, go to the bottom left screen. You'll have to push two rocks aside to get there. You'll need one key in that room. The staircases there will take you all the way up to Area 6. There, you'll be able to use the second key to get to a switch to lower the Area 5 blocks (allowing Link to reach his boss lock). After fighting a miniboss, you'll be able to use that third key to reach the switch to lower the Area 1 blocks, allowing Link to reach his boss key.

I've been "key-challenged" down the stretch but have read the clues and met success...still I am a little short, but the areas that haven't been seen are dwindling; however, here is one that still needs opened...help, please..thanks, as always!!

[Russ]

Okay, those blocks are lowered from Area 6. From the staircase leading up to 6, you need to go right two and up one. You'll need a small key though. There's three small keys for Dracus, one in Area 2, north of the staircase, and two in Area 4 along the south border. I'm guessing you're missing the one in Area 2, as it seems to be the most commonly missed key in the game. As Link, take the stairs on top of Area 1's mountain into Area 3, then bomb the cracked wall on the right. That'll let you lower the L blocks in Area 2 so Dracus can get that key.

[chiefbigcalf]

As always....comes back to player error/shortsightedness/cranial flatulence whatever......been at the screen in question multiple times but thought I had garnered the key in question....NOT!! Thanks for your patience.

[Da Masta Sord]

I got that one key, that is easily forgotten, the first time I got to that area.

I saw the bombable wall and bombed it.

[Da Masta Sord]

I'm on the final boss, I get this weird glitch after I damage Solarite enough.

He is in the upper left part of the room.

He is undamageable.

Is this normal?

That's... not normal. That shouldn't be happening at all, in fact. That was a bug I found during beta testing and fixed. Are you playing the most recent update to the quest. If so... I sincerely apologize, and I have no idea how it happened. But it should fix itself if you just try to fight him again.

[Da Masta Sord]

Fought him twice happened again.

I downloaded the quest last saturday from the official quest downloads page on Pure ZC.com.

I made 2, good moral choices.

[Russ]

Okay, this is bizarre. I can't recreate that, and the failsafe seems to be in place-

So I think it just dawned on me as I typed out that sentence. Every time that bug happens, are there enemies left on the screen besides Solarite? If so, what happens when you kill them? I think I know why this is happening, and it's a case of ZC being really stupid with the way it handles enemies. If you can confirm that, I'll get to work fixing it ASAP.

I believe I am in the stealth dragos area I have the boss key but am missing one key to get the heart piece. It looks like from the hint box that there should be a room that doesn't show on the map in the north west area, I have tried the boss a few times but either die by running out of hearts or times out what is the best way to attack him. Thanks for the help in the other area It went well with your help.

In post #123 of this thread, Russ explains some strategy on how to defeat him.

Okay, there's good strategies to beat him, the easy way, and the not-cheap way. The easy way is to use the Light of the Heavens and just laser him to death. BUT, using that item counts as a bad moral choice, so be careful, depending on what choices you made for the other two. The harder way is to use the Fire Rod. The rapid rate of fire and relatively high damage does a great job pushing him back, put it'll use up your magic fairly quickly, so you need to be careful about moving around and grabbing the magic refills you fall past. While you can heal with the Regenerator, it takes a bit of time, and time's very precious here, so you're better off trying to avoid damage in the first place. The arrows he shoots tend to be a pain for a lot of people, but they're not too hard to dodge, you just need to move up and down. Once you deal enough to damage to him, he'll drop the light, and all you have to do is grab it to finish the fight. Good luck, and if you're having trouble, I can make a video to show how to beat him and/or send you help in various other ways.

Do you have the Regenarator? Its a secret Item that looks like a heart, for Dracus.
