3.21: Interdimensional Rift; the Tower

Enemies: Ninja, Dragon Aevis

This is a very straightforward section without any chests and only two new enemies. A Thief or character with the Find Passages support ability can see where to go; even blind, it's easy as you won't fall off.

Ninjas are not Humanoids, so don't even bother. They're killing machines. When struck with !Attack, they may counter with Image to avoid the next two physical blows altogether. They attack physically, sometimes with !Yagyuu's Strike, which sets Sap. Yagyuu is this famous Japanese samurai or something, possibly famous for setting Sap with his sword strikes. They're vulnerable to Petrify and Death and are not Heavy. They do, however, have incredible amounts of Evasion (70%) and Magic Evasion (90%), so taking advantage of these weakness is difficult. Break spellblade effects paired with !Aim or !Rapid Fire help out, as does Odin (though it won't execute Zantetsuken when a Dragon Aevis is present). OLevel 4 Graviga also works and never misses. They may rarely drop the expensive Fuma Shuriken!

Dragon Aevis are not Dragons, but they are Aevis. With this in mind, the BowAevis Killer helps out here. They're Heavy as well, so Odin can't solve this one for you. They attack physically and use Breath Wing, which is a concern; none of the major status ailments work except for Petrify, so Catoblepas should be called forthwith. They're also weak to Water, so Leviathan might be a better solution for you. You can get a rare BowArtemis Bow from them: hey, why not. They're very powerful against Magic Beasts. They also drop Dragon Fangs all the freaking time, which is great. When you Catch them, they'll use Breath Wing upon Release. That's a really sweet attack to use in the final battle of this game, so Catch one or more here and store them for later usage if you want.

There's one direction you can go in. Do so until you reach the Dimension Castle, the halls of which are filled with an exhaustive amount of treasure and danger.
