Hey guys, this is my second play-through (had to rebuild my party to better spend points so i didn't keep getting clobbered in level 7). I can't seem to find the ring Gauntlets this time around. I must have I missed them somewhere along the way, I've back tracked about 4 times and I still can't find them, then I compared maps to my other party and the maps look the same. what am I missing.

I just need to know the trial area, I'll gladly search the area again.

thx

Hint: Bigger spoiler:

I'm a moron, opened the door before re-exploring it completely, thanks.

I completely forgot about checking the cages in the Beast Gardens. Oy.

Oh well, just a few more hours and I'll be home, kiss the wife on the cheak, then will be starting anew.

I'm replaying the game now, with Toorum and I hit an interesting snag while secret-hunting. Level 6 is probably where I missed a secret, and it's nice to see regular progress doesn't require you to enter the Halls of Fire .. because Toorum isn't good enough with throwing items to hit the demon face with a firebomb and I don't have enough fire magic to cast a fireball yet..

I'll have to grind the supermarket snails and next-door skellies for levels to make myself a bit stronger for the coming floors, and to get that fireball spell.

Use the Fire sword?

I completely forgot it, I thought it was in one of the secret in the Halls. Still, went and cleared the 7th floor, got enough fire magic and now I have 52/71 secrets.. I'm missing the 13th secret on the 6th floor. I also picked up (or at least saw) all the items listed in the OP, so the secret doesn't contain anything new?

Would like a tip as to which part of the map it's on, here's my breakdown of found so far: edit: Ok. Now I am weirded out. I've marked 12 secrets on floor 6 as found, and 9 on floor 7 as found.. but I have 53 total which would imply either 13 on floor 6 or 10 on floor 7..
What's really annoying is the two treasures accessible from floor 6.. they both make a "secret found" sound but don't count as one. In fact I don't think ANY of the treasures count as secrets although most of them require pressing a hidden switch and all that..

missing plate cuirass. can anyone figure that one out exactly where on the map it is located??

Ok, dumb question about counting the number secrets found.

I started a new game just to count secrets as I went along. I followed both this thread and another thread I found here:

viewtopic.php?f=13&t=919
(Unfortunately, it does not seem this one has been updated as much)

- On floor 1, I had a total of 3 secrets found
- On floor 2, I had a total of 9 secrets found(6 for that floor)
- On floor 3, I have a total of 18 secrets, this including the secret inside the Slime Dungeon on floor 4 but only accessible via this floor.

My question is, according to the secrets count up to this point, would the one in the Slime Dungeon count for floor 3? Or would it actually count for floor 4? I realize the game itself makes no such categorizations, this is just for ease of clarity and my own sanity.
