Trading Places II Walkthrough
Talk To Theodore & Help Prepare For Bearer Transport
Open your map and checked on the location where the side quest Trading Places II is marked. Talk to Theodore. For this side quest, you will encounter a large number of enemies, and a powerful boss will be waiting for you at the end, so be sure to prepare enough recovery items.
Talk To Eloise
After talking to Theodore, go talk to Eloise.
Meet Eloise at The Republican Gate
Go south to Boklad Market and proceed to The Steps of the Forgotten, where you will find Eloise and talk to her. After the conversation, you will automatically move to Boklad Market.
Talk To The Sellsword In Kasjlok
From Laetny's Cleft, head to Kasjlok and approach the two Sellswords iand interact with them.
Proceed To Cerdra's Thread & Defeat The Akashic
After talking with the two Sellswords, follow the road to Kasjlok. When you approach the marked point, you will encounter 4 Akashic Eaters and 6 Akashic Hounds. If you rush in directly, you will be surrounded, so follow the perimeter of the terrain and it is recommended to go after the mark.
Defeat Herensuge
After defeating the Akashic Hound and Eaters, Herensuge will appear next and a battle will automatically start. It has a powerful attack and, just like the Akashic Dragon, it also has a Dragon Dance attack, so it is best to focus on Evade. After defeating Herensuge, the quest will automatically moved to the Boklad Market and the quest will be completed.
How To Beat Herensuge?
| Strategy Points | |
|---|---|
| 1 | Only lock on when the enemy is Staggered |
| 2 | When you see its attacking motion, press R1 to dodge. |
| 3 | Once it does Dragon Dance, only focus on dodging the attacks. |
Do Not Lock In When Enemy Is Not Down
Herensuge's weakpoint is located on its head. This location is high up making it difficult to move. If you lock on, you will be forced to jump attack making your hits miss a lot. It is better to only lock in when the opponent is staggered.
Once It Bends Prepare To Dodge
When Herensuge is about to do a melee attack, it will start to move back and bend. Dodging just when it is about to swing back to dodge. After it starts flying, the flame strike attack can be dodge by moving to the side while dodging.
Dodge GuideOnce It Start Doing Dragondance, Focus On Attacking
| Dragon Dance Attack Pattern | |
|---|---|
| 1 | You will be forced to give space then be attacked by 6 blast of Fire. |
| 2 | Horizontal Lazer |
| 3 | From where Clive is, a Vertical Laser |
| 4 | Charging attack. |
| 5 | Down for a short amount of time. |
After being down, the pattern above will repeat once again. Some of the moves can be difficult to dodge and it is easier to dodge if you predict the movements instead.
