  Palmacosta Human Ranch 
Go up and to the right to trigger a scene. You do have a choice here but your best bet is the top option, so choose it. Now go up, and battle your way through the gate and into the base.

Examine the pedestal here to change the function of the Sorcerer's Ring. Go into the right door, and use the Sorcerer's Ring. Examine the terminal to get a White Silver, and then the pedestal to activate a bridge. Across to your right is a vending machine that can both heal you full and sell items, be sure to take advantage of it.

Use the Sorcerer's Ring and examine the terminal at the top left for and Orange Gel, and the pedestal at the top right for another bridge. It may look like it's a dead end, but activate the Sorcerer's Ring and pick up the life bottle. Now go back, if you haven't killed the enemy beside the vending machine by now, do so, as he carries a "Purple Card." Use your ring again to turn off the upper bridge, then cross the left one and turn it off as well. The reason will become apparent later. Now go back to the main hall.

Go into the left door and defeat the guard there to receive the memory gem for this dungeon. Use the Sorcerer's Ring to find an Apple Gel in this room. Activate it again and head down the bottom left path, you should be able to find two Orange Gels and a Life Bottle in this general area. Now head back to the main hall.

Use your ring to make the warp portal appear above the pedestal, and use it. Now head up, save your game and go into the door on the right. Activate your ring, and you should see a sparkle with a box near the bottom. Push the box down and grab the item for an EX Gem Lv2. Be sure the ring is activated and move the box at the top with a sparkle in it, and grab the Mage Cloak (equip for Genis.) With the radar on, examine the pedestal to make a bridge, cross it, go down the stairs and watch a quick scene. You should now have a Red Card. Go across the bridge again and deactivate it. Now head back to the save point.

Take the left door this time for another event and a Blue Card. Exit to the right.

Now activate your ring and go into the portal North of the save point, now you have to deal with a ton of confusing teleporters, the following is the best route to take: (Note you may see many sparkles through this, but the majority are alarms with enemies, it is best not to pick them up.) Beginning from the room you end up in after you use the first portal:

Be sure to activate your ring each time:

1. West Portal
2. North Portal
3. North Portal


Assuming you deactivated all the bridges after you left, there should be a spiral path leading up to a Panacea Bottle you can see with the Sorcerer's Ring. Return, activate the ring and go into the centre portal, choose to return to the connecting path, save, and use the following path (start by entering the portal above the save point.)

1: West Portal
2. West Portal
3. South Portal
4. North Portal
5. North Portal
6. West Portal
7. North Portal
8. West Portal


Watch a scene, easy battle and another scene. Once it's over, follow Chocolat and enter the North Portal. A slightly longer event occurs now, another easy battle, and then...

Boss: Magnius

HP: 8500 | TP: 120 | EXP: 739 | Gald: 2124

Whip Master

HP: 2300 | TP: 60

Bowman

HP: 2100 | TP: 40

It's probably implied by now, but the subordinates must die first. They go down quick and will just get annoying otherwise. As for Magnius himself, it's just a matter of slowly beating him down, he's not particularly hard, he just blocks a lot. He also has numerous attacks that will send flying, keep in mind the block button will land you on your feet when timed well. Hopefully Genis has some mid-magic by now, but even if not, combos and low level magic should take him out in no time.




Following the fight is another scene. You'll be taken out automatically so you don't have to worry about backtracking. Time to return once again to Palmacosta.
