Notes:

• Posted by smarfle on Gamefaqs.
• Additional notes from rhaining 2008/06/05:

Verified both passwords & got both Kabra's Blades. Ran through this rescue 4 times in total. Updated walkthrough with more complete notes. Existing documentation jibed with what I found, except for 5F, which was 100% wrong. (Can a floor change for some players, or differ from rescuee to rescuer? Did the original author get notes crossed with another run? My 5F had only a Kigny Seed and Scroll of Sleep, and that's if the Field Bandit destroys no items. Here are the original 5F notes:

5F: Confusion Scroll (West room)

Sleep Herb (NW Room)

Bitter Herb (E Center room)

Drain Buster (NE Room)

Rustless Armband (NE Room)

Dragonkiller (just W of NE Room)

Shop w/ Earth Bless Scroll (just W of the Dragonkiller)

• Note on 5F by josh:

Everything in this walkthrough verifies for me, except for 5F. I've had to play this three times, using the first code, and 5F was (I think) the same or similar form each time but had nothing in common with either set of notes above. Maybe it's flagged to vary for each person or something?

Also beware: the first time I played this, the Monster House in 8F was a Dragon House. Best strategy I found for dealing with the final MH is to get one foot in the door, back up and paralyze something in the entrance, and then after everything else has left the room use your pickaxe to get around the paralyzed monster. Use an Herb of Sight to avoid traps, grab all the jars in the room and then leave (paralyze another mob in the other doorway if they come back).

Right Under The Knockback Staff I Found A Pitfall Trap, I Missed Out On The Whole Floor.
