Next Area: Pell Los Plateau
Gackt68 says
Thanks for the guide !
In Forgotten Temple, iirc there is a scroll on the first circle elevator.
When it’s upside, launch the elevator and when it goes down, jump on the elevator to collect the item.
Jordan says
Water Enhancer crafting scroll, good find. It’s on top of the elevator.
Archer says
It’s weird, but I didn’t get the Hound Scroll even though I already killed the bat..
Archer says
Just to be clear. For me the Hound scroll is actually dropped by defeating the elite spider.
Yaeyo says
The scrolls for crafting aren’t 100% drops. You will likely have to kill an enemy multiple times to get most of them. Also it drops from the 1st elite because I just went back 2 times and got it. It may drop from the spider but the first bat elite definitely has a chance to drop it.
