Strategy

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

This section has been marked as a stub. Please help improve the page by adding information.


Having played through a few escape chapters already, one may consider deploying a few cavalry units and hoping for the best. However, traveling under the mountain would mean encountering a large number of enemies head-on. Traveling through the forest with a couple infantry units would be more plausible. Be careful, however, as Merlock has high bulk, speed, and strength, making it devastating to face him unprepared. As such, bringing along a strong magic-caster such as Asbel is a plausible strategy. If you wish to deploy Carrion to obtain the Paragon Sword from Selphina, do take care to keep him out of range of Thracia's dragon riders.

One final thing: don't let a single enemy unit reach the escape point, or it's an automatic Game Over.
