FFXV The Trial of Ramuh Walkthrough

List of Objectives
1 FFXV_Runestones_story walkthrough The Runestones of the Thunder Titan Ramuh is the task in this quest. Search for them and touch them.
2 FFXV_First runestone_story walkthrough The first Runestone is located fairly close by, but prepare to fight against enemies like Lv. 27 Gigantoads, Lv.16 Imperials, and Lv. 12 Voretooths.
3 FFXV_Second runestone_story walkthrough Head for the second Runestone. The Gigantoads and Voretooths are abundant between the first Runestone and the next.
4 After reaching the second Runestone, head for the third Runestone, which is located within Fociaugh Hollow.
5 FFXV_Fociaugh Hollow_story walkthrough Make sure you've leveled up sufficiently before entering the cave.
5 Imps and Thunder Bombs are among your first enemies here. Watch out for the Thunder Bombs' spread Explosion attack. Defeat them before they explode.
5 The Imp parties will begin to include Lv. 19 Mindflayers. They shouldn't pose much trouble if you've leveled up past their levels.
5 Move past narrow ledges by following the X button prompt to pass safely on them.
5 In a deeper part of the cave, you'll hear the call of someone searching for her 'baby.' This also means you're near the Tomb.
5 Make your way to come face to face with a Lv30 Naga, who's searching for her baby. Answering 'I know where' will turn her aggressive against you.
5 The Naga will also be standing between you and the entrance to the Tomb. Engage her until she reaches 1/4 of her HP, in which case she'll turn tail and run.
5 Continue onwards. The area behind her is the path toward the grove, where you can touch the last Runestone and receive the Mark of the Fulgurian.
5 Upon leaving the cave, you'll notice that the rains have stopped. On to the next quest.

Tips and Strategies

This is a list of important things to do in the quest The Trial of Ramuh. Read on to find out which of them is crucial to proceeding.

  • There are bosses who will disappear after being brought down to about a half or 1/4 of their HP. The Naga is one such enemy. Bring her HP down quickly to avoid too many casualties.
  • Lv.20 Hobgoblins are nasty, but they belong to a type of enemy with no good footing. Keeping them off their feet by knocking them down means more time for you to deal damage and end the battle quickly.
  • Imps don't have much HP but are agile enough to cause troubles. An agile gunsmith, however, could quickly thin their herd.
  • Between Imps and Lv. 21 Bombs, take out the Bombs first. Discover what weapon or element they are weak against and exploit.
  • Travels without the Regalia will offer you chances to amass EXP points quickly, so make a point to camp or rest at an Outpost more often.
  • Guns work well against the Naga, so consider using this tactic against her.
