You're missing two wizzrobes, both of which can notably be found in the last level.

 

The one at the bottom right corner is the "secret" enemy, which you rarely encounter in the last overworld area.

@Jamian

 

Thank you very much for your reply.

First of all, I really enjoyed your quest, especially was attracted with your excellent designs of all dungeons!

 

How did I forget wizzrobes in the last dungeon?  :augh:

I saw the rare "elusive" monster only ONCE, someday I'm going to get that again!

Maybe I will play your other quest before that.

Ugh, this final boss. I'm tempted to give up and not complete the very last leg of this quest. Attempted it at least half a dozen times; only made it as far as the third stage (black shield) once. I've read the posted strategy for this boss, but it's very vague on how I actually damage her during that third stage. I thought from her comment that this required reflecting her magic back with the Magic Boomerang, but that didn't seem to do anything (although I could only get in a few attempts at reflecting her fire before dying.) Any additional guidance you can provide?

 

Why must you taunt me with a Red Tunic that I can't actually get??? Can't we work out a monthly payment plan? I think I got everything else in the game (well, in terms of items; haven't completed the Bestiary) except that I never actually found a Map in Level 6. Not sure how that happened, since I know I explore dungeons completely.

 

Innovative quest. I don't think it will be among my favorites (if for no other reason than the Bestiary driving me nuts as a completionist who doesn't want to invest that much time and energy into 100%ing it), but there are some really inventive dungeon elements that you came up with. You are definitely up there among the better ZC dungeon designers. There were a lot of unorthodox hints for where to go and what to do that are puzzling to work out but never leave you completely stuck. Interesting choice of items to have or not have in the inventory (really wasn't expecting to get to the end of the quest with no ladder) combined in interesting ways in the dungeons. (I loved the progression of "How fast can you actually kill the Pols Voice?" in L5. And having both candles in L1 was really cool and unexpected.) The cartographer was an interesting touch for the (otherwise blah and all-too-watery) overworld; probably the only way an NES-style tileset works well in a quest, with those obnoxious unmarked bomb caves. Good job Jamian.

Anyone know how to get to Level 5? In the area where you create paths for the 3 stairs to open the switches to move forward, I’m stumped as I see a blocked off key block with another room on the side that I can’t seem to figure out how to get to in order for me to get the key in said cave. Anyone know how to get to that side?
