Where is the Treasure located in The Mountain Path area of the Ignan Ruins (2-1)?

Question

I've purchased the hint from the Priest to try to figure out how to find the treasure, which is in the spoiler below:

Nature provides the drums, you provide the beat

I... have no idea what this means. The only thing I can think of is that it possibly has something to do with the mushrooms? Because... mushrooms sort of... look like drums?

What I have tried:

• Killing all the mushrooms first
• Killing everything but the mushrooms and leaving them for last (this is actually harder than it sounds)
• Hitting the 3 rocks in the zone both clockwise and counter-clockwise (both with and without enemies in the zone)
• Killing everything
• Killing the wasp nests first
• Killing the wasp nests last

Answer

Well, you almost got Nature's Drums right. There are five rocks you need to strike in order to get the chest to spawn. You don't need to hit them in any sequence, you need simply make sure you strike them hard enough for that nice CLANG sound. The screenshots will include the minimap so you know exactly where they are. It isn't all that hard to see them, but it's easy to miss which ones you've actually hit.

The first 3 rocks are all on the main area. One right at the entrance...

One to the west...

One to the east...

The other two are on the raised areas. The fourth one you should hit is the platform near the entrance.

The final rock you should do is the one right at the exit. Order doesn't matter, but I recommend this one last for two reasons. One, because the chest spawns right near it. Two, because if you clear out all the enemies in the process, you can then just pick up the chest and exit to the next room.

Once you've clanged all those rocks, pick up your prize!

It's a Common Shield! This one gives +25 Defense.

How do I find the treasure in the Silent Church section of Aquan Ruins(3-5)?

Question

Under similar circumstances as my Lava Pool treasure hunt, I find myself poking and stabbing at random enemies and objects in Chantelise, hoping to uncover another hidden treasure. This time, however, I took the deep dive and bought myself a hint at the cost of my life force.

It says that I have to "punish the imposter. Again."

This is in reference to...

...the hint for 3-4, "punish the imposter", where I had to find the tombstone that didn't match and stand on it. I believe I also could not kill any other enemies, or wake any other skeletons.

However, in spite of knowing this, I don't really get what I'm supposed to be doing this time around. I've run around hitting random objects that seem out of place and killed each jellyfish individually, yet I don't seem to have found anything secret at all.

How do I find this treasure?

Answer

Well, as with the last one, you need to get an unusual enemy to spawn. And, just like the last one, you get it to spawn through some vandalism.

You need to break all of the torches in the room. They take 3 hits to take out, so you may've passed them off as indestructible. Normally I'm an advocate of getting the treasures then clearing the room, but with that big Bomb there you might want to clear the room out first. At any rate, once you've broken the last one, hey, look who decides to show up?

This opponent is non-elemental, so you won't get an elemental bonus against it. However, it only has about 50 HP, so it dies quite easily. Defeat this fish to win the following prize.

A Silver Gauntlet! It gives you +40 attack. Simple, yet reliable.

How do I get the treasure in the Lava Pools section of Ignan Ruins(2-3)?

Question

As the last remaining secret treasure I haven't discovered in the Ignan Ruins, I am very eager to find riches in the Lava Pools. However, I'm struggling quite a bit, and I don't want to waste my precious health purchasing a hint.

Currently I have tried:

• Luring all of the bombs together(like a bomb party, or a bomb family reunion). This failed because the bombs hit an invisible wall when they venture too far from their spawn points.
• Hitting all the rocks
• Hitting all the rocks as many times as the fire pillars near them shoot up
• Jumping into the fire pillars that shoot out from the lava
• Jumping into all the lava I can find while craning my neck in a vain attempt to look for sekret passages
• Luring the bomb at the top-most platform into the bridge gap to kill it
• Running around in circles

I have NOT tried:

• Killing only bombs/fire slimes/bees/mushrooms since the jumping enemies are very suicidal and I'm too young to die from a frustration-induced stroke
• Killing all the jumping enemies by making them jump into the lava because this isn't Waiting For Godot
• Rubbing my belly and patting my head while singing because I'd feel silly

What do I do?!

Answer

The solution to this is to only break the barrels after you have cleared all of the enemies.

Naturally, the barrels are in your way at the start, and you can't exactly jump over them. Which means we need to take a shortcut.

First, clear out all of the enemies on your starting side of the barrels. So, all of those purple Mushrooms, a handful of Bees, and that one Bomb in the middle. Once you've got none left (Red slimes don't count), you need to move onto the central platform. Head straight east and jump to land roughly in the middle of a circle of Mushrooms. Now you're past the barrels!

You'll need to double back towards the barrels to catch a couple Bees and Mushrooms. Make sure not to break the barrels yet. As well, you should hopefully harvest enough magical gems from enemies to take out the Bombs safely. Once you clear the last enemy (it'd dispel the barrier, if this is your first time or a time trial), then double back and break the barrels. You'll spawn the chest near the entrance of the room.

Your prize is as follows.

Ferromin! That's... it. +10 Max HP, though, so use it to buy more hints!

Where is the Treasure located in the Cave area of the Terran Ruins (1-5)?

Question

I cannot find it. Things I have tried include (all attempts were after enemies were cleared):

• Running around the stone column and hitting it
• Breaking all the barrels and torches
• Breaking all the barrels then breaking all the torches with Icicle Edge
• Breaking all the torches with the Hammerball
• Running around the edges of the map trying to find some piece of wall to hit to trigger it

I give up. I'm really hoping that this isn't a case of just having to pixel hunt to get the exact right area.

Answer

The objective of this room is that you must defeat a powerful foe. But not just defeat it, you must defeat it first! As such, if you try to look after clearing the room out, you'll never get it. Quite fiendish.

I speak of none other than the very fast skeleton that is at the exit. You need to go over to it and kill it without killing any of the other enemies in the room. A pretty easy task, honestly, they won't harass you if you just run. As a skeleton, remember that you can kill harm it with spells, so either bring some gems with you from a previous room. Or, you can break the torches or the grass in that area fairly safely to harvest some gems.

The prize you claim is...

Speedboots! They can be worn to increase your moving speed, and count as a pair of shoes (you can only wear 2 at a time). They're... really, they're as awesome as they sound and may easily find their way into a very common slot in your equipment.
