Tower of Ruin (D-2)

The Tower of Ruin (Japanese: 滅びの塔, "Horobi no Tō" / lit. "Tower of Ruin") is a twisted, mechanical field and backside to the Inferno Cavern. With haphazard machinery, potentially lethal crushers, lava, and a lack of any coherent design, this field is highly oppressive, but it houses some of the most crucial items to breaking Mother's seal.

Items[]

Weapons[]

Earth Spear

  • Location: (E-5)
    • In (E-4), most of the left half of the room is sealed off with a lone skeleton inside. You can enter it by passing through a fake wall to the right of the skeleton. Once inside, jump on top of the crusher to place a weight on the dais, then drop down into (E-5) to find the Earth Spear revealed.

Treasures[]

Sacred Orb

  • Location: (G-5)
    • Wait for the crusher in the lower-right corner to drop, revealing a dais. Place a weight here (be careful not to get crushed) to unlock the chest.

Map

  • Location: (B-3)
    • Complete the Gate of Illusion Shortcut. Break the pots in the upper-right corner of (A-3), then attack the wall several times to open it. Enter (B-3) along the top path and place a weight on the dais to unlock the chest below.

Ankh Jewel[]

  • Location: (F-4)
    • From (E-4), cross over to the right side of the room and drop down the platforms. Break the lowest wall to your right to enter (F-4). Here there are six blocks with La-Mulanese letters etched on them - you must break two blocks which spell out MU. These are the center-left and upper-right blocks. They must be broken in order, and breaking any other block will cause the panels in the floor to open up, forcing you to leave the area to reset the puzzle. Succeed, and the chest will unlock.

Puzzles[]

Gate of Illusion Shortcut[]

  • Location: (A-3)
    • Enter from Gate of Illusion (D-3). Place a weight on the dais in front of you to activate the crusher at the top of the ladder, and carefully pass through.

Place a weight here to open two paths to (B-3).

Viy's Chamber[]

    • Use the Earth Spear to move the red gargoyle bust below the center platform at (D-5). This will remove a lock on the pillar to the left. Push it out of the way to access the ladders and climb down to (D-6), where you will find the Backside Door leading to Viy's chamber in Inferno Cavern.
    • This Backside Door will be closed until you have defeated Bahamut.
