Golden Sun Walkthrough: Part 60 - Venus Lighthouse (pt. 2)

We backtrack through most of the Venus Lighthouse and get another piece of equipment, the Feathered Robe (by RNG of course!) This walkthrough is nearly finished, only the final battle and conclusion remain.

GUIDE:

Up to the point of the Gaia Blade, you should know your way through here. There isn't much more, so keep going until you get to the second to last room (before the psynergy stone). Save, hard reset, and battle the Wild Gryphons to get a Feathered Robe for Ivan. You actually can leave the Storm Gear equipped to him due to the fact that it raises fire resistance by 30. Saturos and Menardi are fire-bases adepts, so Ivan will be very vulernable to their attacks. However, the Feathered Robe raises agility (not that that's a big change for Ivan) and it raises Wind power/resistance, so summoning Thor will do more damage. Pick whichever one you think is better and equip it to Ivan. Now, with a complete set of equipment, get ready to fight Saturos and Menardi!

I have been resetting my game for an hour now and my first encounter is just one griffin every time. :(

@wutgodretodd In the first game, whenever you hard reset the monster(s) will always be the same. In TLA, the monsters change every time you reset. I don't know why...

@zipdog hey brooooo guess wat I got a blessed mace but never hard reset it the game.......... do u know y that happened?

[zipdog12]

@NeLfEw240 Yeah you don't HAVE to use an RNG method, but getting an item like you did is very very rare. So, good job! haha

@zipdog12 Actually, if you think about it thoroughly, almost everything in Golden Sun series is well planned. You could even say that they "prophesized" the Mourning Moon with the floor tile changing puzzle in Sol Sanctum... XD

Or the placement of Lighthouses with the statues holding the Elemental Stars.

Or the ending of the game in Vale Sanctum ("Felix must ignite the lighthouses...")

And when they say that Felix will have a terrible fate in The Lost Age... That means something, doesn't it?

[zipdog12]

@dzibanszi Well said.

...and also a set up for the Fusion Dragon fight at the top

Jupiter third, because of the Shaman's Rod story and the relation with Contigo.

Mars is last, because it's in Prox and it ties up the story and background of Saturos, Menardi, Agatio and Karst nicely - they knew about the lighthouses, because the one of them was in front of their eyes all the time (similar to Alex, at least for the part of his past when he is in Imil)

Plus, fire element somehow adds to the dramatic music inside.

@lazygrids12 Well, the "last main" sounded as if you were talking about the whole game :D (what's interesting, Camelot wanted to squeeze it all in one game, but it grew so big that it didn't fit on the cartridge XD)

And i don't think it's a coincidence, it's all well planned actually:

Mercury was first, because Mia was needed for our team, she can access the lighthouse beside Alex, so that's why we meet her there

Venus second, because Felix has to realize what they need Sheba for, and also

[lazygrids12]

@dzibanszi Of course I'm talking about the first one, this walkthrough isn't about the 2nd one.

[dzibanszi]

@lazygrids12 Mars is the last :o Unless you mean last main in the first game.
