This is the strategy guide for the first scenario. I hope this helps you out. Enjoy! ^_^


(P.S. This guide contain extreme spoliers of the game, so view at your own risk!!!!!!)




Woodbread Forest-After all of the opening events are complete, you can now control the main character Leon
Saga. Take a few seconds to check his stats, when you're done, save in the journal and leave the first
area. The second area, in a way, is a bit large. There are three chests in this room, a Feather Hat, 
5 Antidotes, and 10 potions. You should gain at least two levels in this area. Enter the next area by going 
all the way down the map. The rest of the dungeon is pretty straight forward. At the end of the dungeon, you
meet your next party memeber, Cilia. 

Long Claw-Evil
Trent-Holy
Giant Worm-Moon
Beemil-Evil

Rock Trail-This time you have a different party. The characters, which you will find out in battle, are
at really low levels. Level them up around the statue, so they can heal and save after every battle. When 
all of the characters are at least at level 8, 9 to be safe, continue to explore the rest of the area.
The enemies here can be quite diffcult, so here's the weaknesses.

Goblin-Evil
Centuar-Moon
Fiend-Holy
Aerobull-Holy

With this is mind, traveling the Rock Trails will be a piece of cake.
Evil monsters are weak against Moon spells,(Moon Sign, Shine.) Moon monsters are weak against Holy
spells (Light). Holy demons are weak against evil spells (Crest). When you arrive at Crest City, 
Eliza suggests resting up before going to the Factory. Before going  to the Inn, BUY 3 SETS OF 
NEW ARMOR!!!!!!! In a few scenes, you'll see why. It would also help if you buy weapons for your 
characters, and if you have any extra money, spend them on potions. When you're done shopping, go to the
Inn and talk to the Inn Keeper. After a few events, Aekia comes in Quilia's house to tell her that she
should leave there. Once you get Alen, talk to Aekia and save. If you bought new armor, equip them 
now. Once your done with that, leave Quilia's house. After a long discussion, you fight your first boss!
(YAY!)

Boss-Gemini Goons(2)
Recommended Lv,same
This is the first boss battle in Black Ribbon! This is also the toughest battle yet. Since Aekia is on 
auto, she pretty much does whatever she wants. Have Quilia and Alen defend the whole battle to protect 
themselves. When it's needed, have them heal with potion. If everything goes right, everyone should 
survive the battle (Yes, even Alen). Thankfully the enemies are slow, so everyone should hopefully 
survive this battle. If they do, they'll be rewarded greatly. 

Crest Forest-This forest is very small, but a lot of tough enemies live here. While Leon and Cilia
are talking, they three strange people running from something. Then they are attacked, Cilia finds that 
Leon is a Ring Holder and that she's a mage. After they talk, they hear a man screaming, they go to his 
direction to investigate. Go to the left side and go up. There's a man getting hurt by a Tri-Horn. Cilia 
heals and the three people fight the monster.

Boss-Tri-Horn
Recommended Lv, Leon-6, Cilia-2/3, Fakle-5
This battle can be easy or hard. The Tri Horn uses sleep and confuse attacks on your party members. 
(Just hope he doesn't use it on Leon!) Have Cilia heal with her healing spell and when she runs out of MP, 
have her heal with potions. Leon and Fakle should attack the monster. Beware, the Tri-Horn uses an attack 
called Rush that takes away 25 damage from one party member. Try to keep everyone alive in this battle, 
when the battle is over, everyone should gain a level.

After the battle, go back to the save point, then explore the forest. Go south to exit the first area. 
The left part of the second area leads to Crest City. However, there are many useful items deeper in the 
forest. When you find new armor, equip them to Cilia. Since she has no defense, the armor will greatly
increase her chances of surivial. When you're done exploring, leave the forest to go to Crest City.  


Factory-You now have Eliza, Rei and Ira as your main party again. Buy as many potions as you can, you'll need them.
Also buy a couple of a Movement items too. They'll prove to be useful as well. Also buy any new equipment if you 
didn't buy any before because the monsters here are tough. There are only two new enemies here. To get the Key to the
elevator, go in the large, empty, area in the large room and walk around inside until you fight a Key monster (Evil). 
Once defeated, they will more than likely drop a key, allowing you to go in the elevator. 

Crest Guard-Moon
Robot-Holy

When you reach to the chamber with Britis, you'll learn that he can't get out unless someone presses a switch. The switch
is on the tomb outside Britis's hut. After you press the switch, go back to the room where you met him. He then joins
your party. After Britis joins, go back to the brigde. Heal your characters before stepping on the brigde. After the 
discussion, your party will fight a boss. 

Boss-Lesser Demon
Recommended Lv, Eliza, Rei, Ira lv 13, Britis lv.8/9
This boss isn't that tough. His physical attacks are rough and it can kill Rei and Ira in one hit. Britis will probably be
the most strongest character in this battle. Have Eliza use Moon Gem Shot, Ira do his combo, Tear Gas, Silence Gas and Poison
Gas. Rei should use Shine or Moon Sign. Britis should use his phyiscal attacks. The Lesser Demon should fall in a few turns.

Factory2-This time you're in the Factory with Leon, Cilia and Fakle. Make sure you buy lots of Potions before entering. When
you arrive at the brigde, well, what was once a brigde, Leon begins hearing voices from below. To free Rei, Britis, and Ira
from the pit Mooble trapped them in, go to the beginning of the factory where the stairway is. Touch the tube to get a Freeze
Bomb. Then go back up to the bridge. When you free Rei, Ira and Britis, you'll have the option of taking one of them with
you to Temple. Take Britis or Ira. Ira will make your battles out of the Factory easier, while Britis will make your battles
out of the Factory shorter with his amazing strenght. If you select Rei, you'll bring up both Rei and Cilia's romantic
level with Leon. 

Bulock Cavern-This dungeon you'll fight with Quilia and Alen. With Alen in the party, you might think this dungeon will be 
impossible to beat, but, it really is very simple. To get to the Bulock Cavern, go to the first area in the Mountain. Then 
head north and go right. When you arrive at the save point near the cavern, there will be a vending machine. Buy weapons
and armors for Alen and Quilia. Buy some extra potions, Stone Breaks and Antidotes. When you're prepared, enter Bulock 
Cavern. There are a couple of new enemies here, but most of the other enemies you had already faced before.

Sovae-Evil
Land Urchin-Evil
Ling-Evil
Troll-Evil
Mush-Moon
Woyi-Moon


When you arrive at the save point in the dungeon, level Alen up to Lv,13 so he can learn Crest. When that's done, enter the 
area above. When you arrive, a Zodiac Clan member is there. Soon, Quilia and Alen will fight the boss of the dungeon. 

Boss-Bulok
Recommended Lv,11-12
This boss can be tough or terribly easy, depending on what spells Alen have learned. If Alen have learned Crest, this battle
will be quick. If not, this battle will be long. Regardless, both characters should live through this battle, if you have
enough Potions and Heal spells in this battle. If Alen runs out of CP, which is most likely to happen, give him a Spell 
Tonic. The Bulok has strong phyiscal attacks and he uses Light spells. Some of his regular attacks causes sleep status. So
be careful. 

Temple Assault-This not a dungeon, just a boss assult. The battles taken place here will need a good strategy to beat. 
Also, here's the elements of the new baddies!

Orge-Moon
Fores-Moon
Kik-Holy
Blue Wings-Evil

Boss-Bronko
Recommeneded Lv,14
This boss can be quite tough. Have Rei attack the boss with Crest and Cilia use her Crest spell as well. Leon should use his
Issac Ring, if his physical attacks don't already take more damage. Bronko's attacks can kill Rei or Cilia in a few hits,
so watch out for them. Also, he has a tech that does 30 damage to everyone. Don't underestimate Bronko, always heal when 
he attacks you. 

Boss-Pisces, Aries
Recommeded Lv,Ira 14, Fakle 14, Britis 10, Aekia 20
You have a Aekia in your party for another boss battle again. Unfortunely, she's still uncontrolable. Leave Aekia to Pisces.
Aekia will be able to defeat Pisces in 4-5 attacks with her Holy Stab tech. Have everyone else attack Aries. Aries's 
phyiscal attack takes away 70+ and has a chance of paralysis. Healing in this battle is a must! Try to make the other 
characters heal with potions. If not, Aekia will back everyone up, but that will consume a lot of HP out of her and she 
needs that for Pisces.


Bridge Hole-Your party is trapped in the hole under the bridge. For the first time ever, you can choose party memebers for
you party! The best party for this dungeon is Leon, Cilia, Rei and Ira. They might have weak defenses, but they are the most
useful choice for this point of the game. When you find the Ignis Ore, you could go back and give it to Mooble to complete
the dungeon, but, there is a opinional boss fight ahead. It would be wise to fight it for extra experience. Also, all of the
monsters here you've fought before, nothing new.  

Boss-Roglowx3
Recommeded Lv,18
The three Roglows can be easy depending on who you have in your party. Have Ira use his combo, Rei and Cilia cast Shine, and
Leon should attack. If you have Fakle or Aekia or both, have Fakle attack and Aekia will do whatever she wants. If Ira is not
in your party, this battle will be annoying. Mainly because the Roglows heal themselves when they are not silenced.


Pathway-This is a very small dungeon, if you even consider it a dungeon. At the end of this rather small dungeon, lies Eliza.
This time, however, she has stronger moon techs. Before fighting the boss in this dungeon, you are given a choice of which 
party member to replace. Replace Mooble. There are also two new baddies to fight. 

Golden Wings-Holy
Stunner-Moon


Boss-White Bull
Recommended Lv,18
This boss's element is evil. (The white skin on the boss used to confuse you!) Have Eliza use Sparkle Heart, Ira use his 
combo, Rei use Shine and Leon attack the boss. This boss isn't so hard and is only mild to what you'll be facing shortly.

Zodiac Shrine-This is the final dungeon in the first scenario. This dungeon might not seem like much, but it is really long. 
It has quite a bit of puzzles that you must solve. There are also tough creatures that cast very strong spells. Before you 
even enter the Shrine, you're faced with a boss fight! When you enter the Shrine, you have many other new enemies to face, 
as well as a couple of older ones.

Jester-Evil
Death Bug-Evil
Vace-Moon
Rapier-Holy

Boss-Libra, Virgo, Cancer
Recommended Lv,15/16
This battle depends on what attacks you use and one whom. First have Ira silence them. This will stop Cancer from
healing everyone. Then have Ira cast Tear Gas, and on every round until Virgo is dead. First, take out Virgo by having
Leon use his phyiscal attacks, Ira use Tear Gas, Rei use Shine and Eliza use Moon Gem Shot. When Virgo falls, move to
Libra. Attack her with phyiscal attacks, Light and Holy Gem Shot. Attack Cancer with Issac Ring and or phyiscal attacks. 
Evil Gem Shot and and Crest. When they are defeated, save and then go back to the Shrine.

Boss-Scorpio, Sagittarius 
Recomended Lv,16
This is a difficult battle. Scorpio isn't all that hard, all he does is use poison related attacks. Sagittarius, is
a whole different story. Have Ira use Tear Gas. Both are of them have the evil element. So Rei's Shine spell will 
work well here. Eliza's Sparkle Heart will work wonders! First take out Sagittarius. This may be a pretty long battle 
since most both bosses have quite a bit of HP. Once Sagittarius is dead, Scorpio is not a challenge at all!

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 Boss-Gemini, Capricorn, Taurus,                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
Recommended Lv,16
The difficulty of this battle largely depends on your moves and how you execute them. The real threat of this battle is 
Taurus, and to some extent, Capricorn. Gemini is the weakest one here, so don't worry about him just yet. You'll want to
talk to Taurus out as soon as possible, but in order to do that, you'll need Capricorn out of the battle. Capricorn might
be physically the weakest link here, having terribly low HP, Power and defense, but her spells far surpasses any of her
other two allies. Her speciality is called "Capri Heal", and recovers everyone up to 125+ HP! Attack her with your 
strongest evil attacks, and once she's dead, move on to Taurus. Taurus's physical attacks are dangerously high, enabling
him to take away up to 70+ damage on Ira, Rei, or Eliza. Have Leon attack him with physical attacks, Rei and Eliza attack
him with their Holy attacks, and have Ira constantly using Tear Gas. Keeping Taurus asleep throughout the battle will 
prevent him from using his power physical attacks. If you want, you could use Poison Gas, just to speed the battle up soon.
When Taurus is dead, simply everyone attack Gemini with Moon attacks. He's not threatening at all. However, watch out for 
his Gemin-Eye tech, it can silence a character. 

Boss-Pisces, Aries
Recommended Lv,17
This is the last battle with Aries and Pisces you'll have. Pisces has a new attack called Pisces Kiss that has a chance of
killing all of your characters. You can avoid this by having everyone defend and have Ira use Tear Gas. Pisces will fall
asleep but Aries probably won't. When Pisces is asleep, gang up on her with Holy element chants and techs. Have Ira use
Tear Gas every round until Pisces is defeated. When she's gone, gang up on Aries with Moon elements. This battle
shouldn't be too rough. 

Boss-Leo
Recommend Lv,Aekia 20, Mooble 16/17, Britis 13-15
Leo's element is Evil, so none of the characters in this battle has an advantage. Since you only have three characters and
most of them have low HP, this battle is kind of difficult. However, the strategy here is very basic. Have the three 
characters all attack Leo. Leave all of the healing to Aekia, however that will leave her very weak at times, so have Mooble 
restore Aekia's HP when she needs it. Beware of Leo's Crest and Spirit chants, and his tech Leo Shock. Always have Britis 
attack Leo, it's not everyday you get to have Britis on your team! XD  

Cilia's House-Rei and Leon must now rescue Cilia from Aekia and Eliza. Cilia's house is just above Temple. Once you reach
there, examine Cilia's door and go in. Somehow when Eliza set the house on fire, monsters appeared. These enemies are a new
type, the Sacred type. These creatures cannot be damaged by magic or phyiscal attacks, you must use Sacred Powers to defeat
them. Rei tries to tell Leon not to go in because he could get hurt, but he doesn't follow her advice. Instead, the big hero
decides to go in alone. The fire is sacred so Leon can't hurt them. When you encounter one, run. When Cilia rejoins, you will
now be able to fight them. Obviously, you should save your game. You'll need lots of Spell Tonics here, so if you don't have
any, you might wanna kill some Sacred Fires in order to get some.

Sacred Fire-Sacred

Boss-Sacred Flame
Recommended Lv,Leon 17, Cilia, 14-16
Basic strategy, have Cilia use her new spell and when she gets hurt, have Leon heal her ASAP! 


 
This concludes the first scenario, Holy And Sacred!
