I've started a replay to find all Mystery Areas, Relics, Animals. Despite kicking every wall/object, or so I thought, I'm no better off this playthrough than the first. I'm still #1,#2,#4 but not #3 Mystery Area. This is what I have thus far.

Mystery Areas

Can anyone leave a hint as to where #3 can be found? Thanks.

Animals


Relics

Mystery Area 3: Royal Fortress of Kirim, check the fireplace in a room with a bed in it.

I guess the relic that you are missing at this point is the Scroll of Revelations: MEV15% EXR105% | 1MP and 1 Use of all Technics (with Use>0) per win.

Oh, I wonder if that's why I didn't find it. My first playthrough I had sort of given up actively searching for those mystery areas since I figured I'd missed one in a location prior to the Royal Fortress. It now looks like there are 2 in the Fortress. Thanks for the info.

I have developed a strategy of walking the perimeter of a room to find any ???/!!! and I have missed something every play. Hopefully this time ...

It's probably too late to get that scroll, but it is certainly worth it for the passive +1 skill count it adds.

I was still in the Fortress when I initially posted this query. I now know how I missed it the first playthrough. I was very involved in the dialogue/story first time through. Now that I know the story and am concentrating on the gameplay / mechanics, I am paying much more attention to details. Once you engage Gerald (Nord Warrior) in the Royal Fortress the conclusion of the battle immediately transports you outside the Fortress, giving you no chance to finish exploring. Do all your exploring before you confront Gerald if you want to find those two Mystery Areas and the two relics that are contained therein.

Good thing about these latest games with secret/mystery areas is that there is alwyas a visual clue, which makes much better to notice some secrets areas like the ones in this game.

Yes, same here. First time I play I tend to pay more attention to the story than looking for secrets and second time I tend to look more for secrets since I already know the storyline.

How did you like it?
Any chance for a Memory entry?

Yup I thought it would improve the gaming experience, plus the ??? for the hidden items too.

You can also focus on battle strategies as you play in NG+/++

As soon as I finish this second playthrough, which will take a few days. Then I'll do it.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind in clicking in every barrel/pot/bush to find items though lol, but it was a good addition.

Which I will do it soon.
