Tower of Babil (Revisit)
After obtaining the airship Falcon with its magma-proof hull, the party enters the underworld entrance to the Tower of Babil to recover the stolen Dark Crystals. Cecil, Rosa, Rydia, and Edge ascend through the upper subterranean floors to reach the Overworld section, only to find the path blocked and their goals redirected after dramatic confrontations.

Tips
- Equip the ice-elemental weapons and armor found throughout these floors immediately, as most enemies here are fire-elemental.
- Focus on defeating Sorcerers first in random encounters so they cannot continuously summon reinforcement monsters into the fight.
- Cast Silence or use the Mage Masher against Doctor Lugae to prevent him from using his more dangerous abilities.
