Quick question about [hide]Cthulhu[/hide].

When does he respawn (if at all)?
Is is one of those "once per playthrough" fights?

Hey Guys! I gotta question and I already searched the web for hours without finding a proper answer. My team in EOIII is already level 70 and I want to fight the three dragons to get them to level 99. But the problem is: I just can´t find them. I already started a New Game+ and was wondering whether you can´t find the three dragons after doing so. Is there anything I forgot to do (I already killed the boss on the 5th stratum) or do I have to delete my data and start a totally new game?

Looking up on gamefaqs, it looks like you have to go to the Aerial Forest in the sea, then go dragon hunting. Probably you can't at the moment; There was suppose to be a Post Game and since you already NG+'d...



Nothing is really lost in a NG+, besides Coupons, but I never use those (so precious...)
When you're alone, always remember:

I know, I looked it up at gamefaq too, but my problem is that it says "...the Three Dragons that appear after you defeat the boss of the 5th Stratum, before you start a New Game+.".

So it looks like you have to defeat them before starting NG+. I posted my question here because I want to be really sure before deleting my data and maybe someone has some experience with this problem.

Not that I know anything about this portion of the game, but that doesn't sound quite right. All I've heard about "what is lost in post game" is exactly what Techno said. I would wait around for Scy to comment on this (I'm sure someone on here knows), but I seriously doubt that you will have to delete your game and I completely discourage it. I think you are just missing a step or two.

Yep, I hope thats it, but I just can´t figure out which steps. I guess you are right, I will wait for answers a few days. I really want to avoid deleting my data now that I´m this far.

From my experience of doing all endings, the only thing you can't do in a new game plus is open chest you've opened already [aka, can't get chest items you've already gotten] and you can't do the quest from the bar again if you've already done them, otherwise all is well. You may have to wait til you beat the 5th stratum boss though.

@Spiral Warrior
I reccomend beating up all the FOEs of the stratum, if you can do that, then Ketos shouldn't be too big of a deal. Also, bring items; medica 2s, nectars, all the neat-o stuff. Also, your Arbalist is ALL OVER THE PLACE. With your monk & prince doing some healing, extend is usually not that great, and your skill priorities seem a little skewed. Try resting, then Max Giant kill, then spread as you like, then level him/her up a few times. From what I see, all your other characters can live with what they have, bring some amrita in case TP drops low in the fight, and you should be just fine.

I know that the dragons won´t show up before beating the 5th stratum boss but I alerady did so and they still don´t appear. Is there anything else I may have forgotten to do? I really hope you can still fight the dragons after starting a NG+.

You can,the dragon will only speak to you at town once [and only once, since if you hear the speech, and start over, the game assumes you've already heard it, and will not give it to you again.] I was able too, try the following:

a) Re-visit the flying island from the port.
b) Try warping to the 3rd or 5th stratum, if the dragon has already spoken to you, you may visit some familiar faces upon entering the stratum.
c)Visit the 6th stratum and walk to the magnetic poll, I believe this is what triggers him talking to you some more

If none of them works, I'll be thinking of other possiblities.

Yeah, I figured that out this morning after a bit of time spent at the Inn XD


however, I forgot how to catch the last 2 [hide]tentacles in the top left[/hide], but I know I have to use the [hide]revelationers[/hide] to prevent their escape (which is how I got the one in the mid-right).
