View Full Version : Mines boss on normal - possible bug ? (help!)

**WARNING** POSSIBLE SPOILER IF YOU WANT TO DO THE QUEST WITHOUT ANY HINTS

I got all the way through the final mines quest last night on normal and killed the mines boss. Then I went and activated the three pillars in forest, caves and mines and went back to the mines boss to fight a second time. I killed it and warped to the ruins entrance where the door was now open - I could even go part way in and get the 'Ruins 1' message box popup. So assuming I'd finished, I warped back to Pioneer 2 only to find that I did not have ruins access (still only forest, caves, mines). I've been to see the principal, checked at the guild (no new quests either), and done everything I can think of.

Am I missing something or is this a bug ? Any help would be really appreciated.

Instead of Warping back to Pioneer 2, when you saw the Ruins 1 you were supposed to hit A and warp to Ruins 1....hope that helps. (your probably gonna have to fight the Mines boss again)

Yup, you have to actually go INTO the ruins to access them the next time around. You won't have to go back and touch the pillars again - you just need to fight the mines boss over. Annoying, isn't it? (I did the exact same thing... lol)

Many thanks - I'll give it a go.

I think the boss deserves another pasting anyway.

That Mines boss is so easy. On Normal i killed its second form with 3 shots with the spread needle lol. Easiest boss.

Well, Vol Opt is pretty easy to take down, but you have to go through the mines before...

Personnaly, I fell a little uneasy with all those Sinow Beats and Garanz lurking everywhere...
