Zone 1: Fort Empire

Fort Empire

This zone is primarily used to proceed deeper into the fort, and has two doors leading into the next zone (C and D). Heading directly to door C involves fighting fewer enemies; however, if you intend to fight all the enemies in the area, be sure to search all four minor loot chests, including the two near door D.

Occupants:

• 0-1 Monster
• 4-6 Monster Enemies (each 80% probability Monster, 20% Rat)

Treasure:

• 1 Chest 01 (locked)
• 1 Chest 02
• 2 Chests 04
• The following plants will always be found: 1 Cairn Bolete plant

Doors and Gates:

• There are three doors in/out of this zone
  • 1 door (at Out) leads outside
  • 2 doors (at C and D) lead to the zone Fort Empire Barracks Block

Zone 2: Fort Empire Barracks Block

Fort Empire Barracks Block

Whether you enter through door C or door D, you will encounter three enemies before you reach the boss chest, one of which will be one of the two boss-level monsters guarding the area. However, entering from door D provides you with one more easily available minor loot chest than if you had entered from door C. Regardless, if you enter from door C, you can still drop down from the bridge to the boss chest alcove and search both minor loot chests near door D, and vice versa if entering from door D for the minor loot chest near door C.

Occupants:

• 2 boss-level Monsters at locations A on map
• 3 Monsters

Treasure:

• 1 boss-level Chest (Monster variety) at location B on map
• 1 Chest 01 (locked)
• 1 Chest 02 (locked)
• 2 Chests 04

Doors and Gates:

• There are two doors (at C and D) in/out of this zone, both leading to the zone Fort Empire
