Can't get Luta to... (spoiler)

[bruno321]

Hello! Thank you for this wonderful translation!

Well, I'm nearing the end. In fact, I was about to enter the last boss's room on F25 on Dahm Tower, but I cannot enter due to some strange force. Well then, I went *all* the way back to the old man on the mirror floor, and he told me that Luta has some amulet that could help me repel that force. Well, I descended even more, into F11, and found the little guy. But he just thanks me for having rescued Leah! I don't get it. What do I have to do to have him give me that amulet??

Thanks a lot.

EDIT: Oh, I forgot, he tells me that he recognizes those books (I have all 5), and that he had one but he lost it.

[bruno321]

Ok, so I hadn't read the book with the monocular, that's why Luta didn't recognize it!

But now I'm at the last boss, and oh my god... It's impossible! This things looks like a Cave manic shooter! How the hell am I supposed to NOT die here? There's plenty of balls flying around, and whenever I hit the guy, I inflict him minimal damage...

Just keep it at.  If you didn't set the difficultly to Nightmare, you'll make it eventually.

I think you should equip all the silver equipment, Fact should be a lot easier.

That was sooo useful! How the heck was I supposed to know that I should wear those?? So I finally beat him! After a thousand tries and some sweating 

Now on to Ys 2!

Nice... what level were you?

[bruno321]

Well, 10. I thought it was weird to see there was a limit to levels, but then again that is quite nice, since it allows you to win using your abilities, and not judging how much time you've spent grinding...

I played it in normal. I'm really a pansy in action games

I don't think that beating this game at level 10 means that you aren't good or anything because in a lot of Ys games you have to be a certain level to even be able to injur the boss. I remember trying to do a low level game for Ys I and I couldn't even beat the boss and I had all the armor and weapon upgrades too. (I achieved this by getting the free sword which saves some gold, then finding the vase near the lake, selling it to the shops dealer to buy the shield and armor). But even then you just absolutely can't beat the first boss at level 1.

Nightwolve I don't recall ever thanking you for translating such a wonderful game so I would like to thank you right here. Also, I was just wondering whether is it possible to have your levels transfered from Ys I to Ys II through some sort of memory allocator. The reason I'm asking this is since the level cap for Ys I isn't really high compare to Ys II and that in Ys II, even a lv 9 or 10 doesn't mean much for the first boss, wouldn't it be more realistic for Adol to have his level transfer over instead of having his level wiped clean? Just like to see what you think about this.
