The Detailed Info on how to recruit Abizboah

[Eugene]

Can anybody find me some detailed directions on how to recruit Abizboah. I've got the Hearing/Listening/Mindfulness Crystal, but where in Tinto Mines can I get him? I think he's in the water since he's an octopus.

there is a pool of water, yes. you should be standing at the southern end.. i think. man, it's been too long.

One reason why you might not be able to recruit him is because you're trying to recruit him when you have to go through the Tinto Mines to continue the plot. Abizboah and Mazus can't be recruited until after the Tinto scenario.

His pool of water is fairly easy to recognize, it's on the main path and there's this spiral thing to the southeast of it.

i don't understand... can you give me a picture or like this "go to the... and to the..." please!!!

[Red Killey]

A picture won't really help because the walls and surrounding are quite similar in the mine. So I expect that even if we give a picture (not to say that we can, because most of us don't play on emulators), you would end up asking how to get there anyway.

Now what I suggest to make it easier for you is to simply go through the mine as if you're doing it normally, and try to use the Listening Crystal whenever you find water. Eventually you will get the right location.

A simple hint is that you found the water before the area you met Mazus. So if you've reached the Mazus area, you're going too far already and you should go back.

one thing... do you need a Listening Crystal and abizboah to recruit Rulodia or just Abizboah?? Don't tell me that she's just not important but I think I could get all 108 stars with Rulodia, if you wouldn't need a Listening Crystal that is.

[Red Killey]

You need a Listening Crystal to get Rulodia. So you cannot get 108 SoDs if you choose to get her.

oh man! this can't be happening! thanks anyway...
oh and i got Abizboah now but Rulodia...
