This is the basic guide for Floors 5 and 6 of the Sage Tower.
Note that you need to have finished Floors 3 and 4 to progress to 5 and 6.
Floor 5[]
- On the first floor, find the door to the Earth Room Library (it's directly across the poison water from the Metal Room needed to enter floor 3).
- Once inside, find the Dropped Book and read it very carefully.
- Go through the door past the Dropped Book and kill the Leader Balie who is summoning the Skeleton. He will drop the Earth Chains Released item. Then head towards the Center Altar Room (where Alister is).
- On the far side from the Door to the Center Altar Room, on the other side of the wall, there is a door. Attempt to enter this door, and you'll hear somebody talking. You need to hear this conversation to progress.
- Then, go back to the Center Altar Room and go up to the 5th floor.
- Once you enter the 5th Floor, you'll find yourself in a maze full of spider.
- Talk to the "Place where sounds are heard" then navigate to the Gate of Elim/Balie.
- Mage, Warrior, Knight, and Jester classes will use the Balie gate. Beginner, Cleric, Craftsman, and Hunter classes will use the Elim gate.
- Answer the riddles correctly to move on to the next section of the labyrinth.
- As you go through the labyrinth make sure you kill the Balie Cultists you find, as they will drop important Crystals.
- Eventually, you will find a guarded gate.
- If the party leader has collected 2 Crystals, he/she can talk to the guards to get vouchers that will allow the party to enter the Spider Queen's Lair. The Party Leader will need to pass out the vouchers to the rest of the party.
- After you solve the 6th riddle, you will find yourself in a more open area. If you go to the left, you will find the Imprisoned Believer of Balie. He will make you a Leader Balie's Cape if you bring him 1 Spider Resin and 6 Balie's Capes from the spiders in the maze. This is optional, but the cape is really cool and rare.
- Travel through the area until you find a Warp in the clearing with dead trees.
- Travel up the large hill in the middle of the next room and fight the Ancient Skeleton Knight. After you defeat him, he will drop a Piece of Earth which you need to talk to.
- Then go back down the hill and find the entrance to the Cave. Inside the Cave, you'll find Kane. Talk to him and Sate will appear.
- After you defeat Sate, talk to Aesa. She will teleport you from the Cave to the Top Floor of the Sage Tower.
- If you have already been through Floor 5, you cannot go back into the Cave. If this is the case, after defeating the Ancient Skeleton Knight, go back out of that area from the Warp you came in.
Floor 6[]
- Talk to the Suspicious Believer of Balie outside of the Top Floor entrance. You will listen through the door, then you will be able to go inside.
- Once inside, interact with "The Unusual Place" and listen to the conversation.
- Then, go past the Giant Crystal and through the Warp "To the Top Floor"
- Go to the far side of the room and talk to Bereth. He will then challenge you to a fight.
- If you want, after defeating Bereth, you can fight the four previous bosses who have been bound. This is optional, however.
YOLO!
- Defeat Bereth, then go through the Center Altar Warp.
- Once you return to the Center Altar Room, exit through the Door on the far side. You will watch a cutscene.
- Once outside, go back to the Room you couldn't enter before you went to floor 5.
- Go into the room and watch the cutscene.
•Congratulations, you have completed the Sage Tower and completing Chapter 2!
