There are four characters who will require you to interact with the cliffs.
One of them can only be obtained after you grab worked your way through this dungeon in its entirety.
Before you enter the Redthroat Ridge, confirm you have already spoken toKuroto in Alterverdenand have encounteredMellore in Eltiweiss.
You may as well recruit both characters at once, so initiate both quests before starting your excursion.
Ideally,you should recruit Francescaas well, as her healing will be extremely helpful.
The first is theWild Boar.
You will need to hunt three of these down if you want to recruit Kuroto.
You will also encounter an enemy named aShell Egg.
These creatures are giant eggs with feet poking out the bottom.
Defeating one gives you that chance of obtaining an egg.
Later down the road, you will need five eggs to recruit Paquia.
So, it isn’t aterribleidea to collect them now while you are here.
Later on, you will encounter a recruit who will specifically request iron.
This is one of the places where you could go to get it for them.
Redthroat Ridge Treasures
There isn’t anything particularly special waiting for you in this dungeon treasure-wise.
However, there is some decent early-game equipment that may as well snag.
TheThick Robeis the first treasure chest you will encounter.
Just stick to the right and you will cross over a rope bridge and run into it.
The robewill work on either Lian, Mellore, or Francesca.
There is a treasure chest withtwo Magical Dropsif you gonorth.
Double back and head west this time.
You will now run into a bridge heading north.
Go west instead to cross over another bridge and grab aTricorne Hat.
Once you hit the bridge traveling east, there will be a treasure chest below youcontaining six herbs.
After spending a little more time on the main path, you will cross over a bridge heading west.
You will hit your final fork in the road.
Nerthus is a pretty simple boss with a pretty simple gimmick.
You will have two grimoires that you will be able to interact with.
There is a 50/50 chance you grab the correct Grimoire.
Both attacks count as physical, the Water Veil spell would be a waste of MP.
after you snag substantially injured Nerthus (taken him down to about half-health), he’ll transform.
Utilize the Recovery Wave spell, or prepare to down a lot of herbs.
No Rune of Return needed!
