Strategy

This section details unofficial strategies that may help with completion of the chapter. This may not work for everybody.

Should the player choose to complete Duma Tower before reaching the Dragon's Maw, no necrodragons will appear on the world map, making all skirmishes on this map completely optional. However, in Gaiden, three skirmishes must be defeated.

It should be noted that in the original Gaiden it is impossible for Alm's party to leave this world map location, if entered, until Celica reaches the peak of Duma Tower and three skirmishes have been defeated. As Celica's party makes her way through western Rigel, Alm's trapped party will be forced into skirmishes that cannot be retreated from. This does not occur in the remake, as Alm may leave the crater through the south entrance regardless of Celica's progress.

As for the battle itself, the terrain favors fliers. Your bowmen will prove very valuable here—Clair too, if she's promoted.
