EO2/Yggdrasil Labyrinth/Ancient Forest

From Etrian Odyssey Wiki


The Ancient Forest is the first area of the labyrinth. A vast, dense forest, home of a diverse ecosystem. It seems that a pack of ferocious deer have taken residence on the lower reaches. The path leading deeper into the forest is guarded by the fearsome beast knew as the Chimaera, whose strength is enough to bring monsters that are supposed to live only on the upper reaches of the labyrinth.

Entrance Examination

You must be granted High Lagaardian citizenship before you begin your journey. Enter the Labyrinth and create a map of the first floor.
Reward: 200en

You're given a partial map that only shows the first area of 1F. The guard you meet will transport your party to a distant corner, where you are then introduced to the mapping controls and have to navigate your way back to the entrance. Don't forget to draw in the walls, or the guard won't let you return home.

Find the Missing Guards

Every guard the Duke has sent to patrol the Labyrinth has gone missing. Investigate these disappearances and, if possible, rescue the guards.
Reward: 500en

This mission becomes available after Hrothgar and Kurogane prevent you from opening the door on 3F. Accept the mission and receive a Lure Bell to help with navigating the FOEs.

Open the door at sector C-3 and you'll find two Furyhorns patrolling around their pillars and a Furylord who won't move. Use the Lure Bell to move it out of position, then slip into the corridor it's guarding and find the guard at the dead end in the north. There's also a shortcut at the corner of the corridor that serves as the escape route.

Chimaera, king of beasts

The monstrous Chimaera has attracted a horde of beasts into the first Stratum. This monster must be subjugated by order of the Grand Duchy.
Reward: 1500en

This mission is available immediately after you have completed the previous mission.

Travel to 5F, where the Chimaera awaits in the central room. It's not alone, as it has six Slaveimps that will approach you during the fight and attempt to join the battle. You can use items or skills to lure the Slaveimps away and pick them off, as they are not very threatening on their own, or you can just stun the FOEs with skills or items to buy some time while fighting the Chimaera.
