The Grand Desert | Disc 3 Blue Dragon Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Sheep Tribe Camp - Lal Mountains

Go along the path through the mountains. Get all the stuff from the chests along the way and, as always, try to fight all the enemies. You'll eventually reach Sheep Tribe Camp. There're a few people here who you should talk to.

- Knitting Sheep Tribeswoman wants you to ask someone on the other Sheep village for a knitting technique of sorts. No problem, just teleport to Wilderness Camp and ask the knitting woman. When you're back, she'll send you on a one more trip - this time to Forest Camp. When exploring that one, you'll hear a gossip about king ghost's treasure [see: Disc 3 -> Barriers] and a woman who wants to transport some herbs to her sick husband in Wilderness Camp. You'll have to do the trip three times (teleporting, of course). When the man is fine, his wife will give you Mega Medicine and Earth Bracelet. Knitting woman's reward will be a Mirror Bracelet.

- There's a fortune teller in the camp who can tell you how many unopened barrier chests there are left in the game.

- Also, there's an adventurer here. Get back to him when you obtain Autographed Manuscript.

Besides, there's a few chests here and there. One of them contains Kimono Sash.

Boss - Wolf Ghost

Leave the camp and head southwards. At the end of the path you'll meet another boss - quite similar to the one from ancient hospital on disc one. It's best not to engage it with any elemental magic, just attack it physically. After a few rounds the wolves will separate - this won't make things any more difficult, in fact.

Go across the bridge and towards the desert. Look around the peninsula, grabbing all the stuff from the chests. There are two valuable items here: Autographed Manuscript (south-east) and Kelolon Necklace (central-west). Autographed Manuscript should be taken to the adventurer you met in the lat Sheep Tribe Camp (cool item in exchange). When you're ready, approach one of the giant crystals.

Enter the mechat and fly south. After a few scenes you'll have complete freedom in exploring the world map. There will be numerous new markers on the map: they indicate special side-quest locations that you can visit for some additional challenges. If you really dislike the game, then I suppose you could just fly to Nene's fortress to begin the final chapter of the game. Remember, though, that some side-quests are actually far more challenging than the finale itself.
