Forbidden Island (Home World) Walkthrough

This is an optional quest to retrieve Riddel's Lv. 7 Tech Skill and evolve the Masamune into the Mastermune. You will need Riddel in your party and have the Memento Pendant to proceed.

The Memento Pendant is obtained by visiting Isle of the Damned (Another World) with Karsh in your party in a previous optional section.

Objectives
1	・Bring Riddel to the Forbidden Island With Riddel in your party, take your boat to the northeast side of the main island, and dock on a small island east of the Shadow Forest with smoke coming out of it.
2	・Take the Pendant to the Hut With the Memento Pendant in your inventory, go to the small hut in the middle of this island. Enter the hut. Inside is Dario, who can no longer remember who he is.
Boss 3	・Defeat Dario Unfortunately, the situation grows tense when you must face him in combat.
4	・Transform the Masamune After defeating Dario, the Masamune (or your current weapon at the time) will transform into the Mastermune!
5	・Return to Viper Manor You will head back to Viper Manor with Dario and he will give you Snake Fangs, Riddel's Lv. 7 Skill. With this, you should now be ready to head to Fort Dragonia!

Tips and Strategies

Give Riddel the Black Plate

If you managed to snag the Black Plate, equip it on Riddel. Dario will focus on her for the most part and while his physical attacks will hurt her, his Elemental ones will heal her! This means it's unlikely she will fall to his attacks.

Beating Dario Without the Black Plate

There is also a way to manipulate his moves in such a way that he will never get to use his Tech Skills and Healing.

If you perfectly manilpulate Dario's moves, you can even beat him without having to equip the Black Plate at all, and come out of the battle completely unscathed!
