move to left will reach to the final room.

~BOSS
You have two opponents in this battle, I recommend kill the silver robot first
since it will shoot you the homing missile with bad status, try clear the bad
status if you got it. Make sure cast Blizzard to the silver robot so you can
stop its annoying attacks. For the gold robot, its attack slow and always hit
the target on the front, basically hit it from the back is the easier way.

it to raise the plate, grab the rope to upper part. Locate the button spot
in the water, the freeze the water and move the rock to the spot where the

button. Now you should get the water barrel falling from the top, freeze the
water once again to obtain the water barrel, use it to put out the fire on

NOTE: If the water barrel doesn't drop, means your rock is not pressing
on the button yet, try dive in and push it to the right spot.

~7th area, elevator. Likewise, defeat all enemies to reveal the button, press

through the ropes.

~8th area, follow the path, get rid of the obstacles until the end.

~9th area, put the pyramid to the socket on the plate to reach opposite
side, then put the pyramid on the socket that's just beside the platform
you reached, so the pyramid will move to the middle. Cross the bridge to
the middle, use the zip line reach to the plate and move it by pressing on
the button, bring the pyramid to the platform. Now place the pyramid
to the next socket at right, then place it on the last socket to proceed.
Needless to say, the pyramid has to be lighted with Thunder before you
put it on the socket.

~10th area, defeat all enemies to reveal the socket. Move the pyramid to
the next socket to unlock another door that leads back to 8th area.

~8th area, grab the pyramid while you're on the flying plate, then bring it

pole switches. Hit both of them to obtain a pyramid, place it on the socket
in the middle of the area. Now head to the left side to get another pyramid
which you placed before, put it onto the remaining socket in the middle. Go to
top left and leave this area.

NOTE: There are 3 crates near the exit which are using to reach to the pillar
at the right corner. You need to stack them on the platform when you have moved
it close to that pillar. What I got from the chest is Paladdin Helm recipe, it
could be random.

~12th area, elevator. Clear all enemies to obtain the key and button.
Use the save stone before entering the final battle.

~BOSS 1
Freeze the boss with Blizzard and try kill his minions since they drop the
healing items. After each attack from the boss, you will have a great chance
to make a combo attack to him, around 5 seconds he will make the next move,
so get further from him to avoid getting his area attack which can lower your
attack damage. Make more hits again when he stays still. Becareful on his
minions self destructions.

~BOSS 2
Likewise, freeze the boss and destroy his minions as soon as possible.
Most of the magic attacks from your opponent can hit a large area, so run
in a straight line or use the speed of your charge attack (Clavat) to evade
the magic. Use more magic on especially Blizzard in this battle to reduce
the attacks from the boss. Later on, he will summon out his devil arms,
and the body, destroy his arms if you need some healing items. If he's
merged with the body, you have to break it, and once you break his body,
he will be stunned about 6-10 second, probably that is the key timing to
defeat him, so don't waste the chance.

~After the final battle and some events, attack the crystal behind the girl.

~After some more events, back to the Forest behind the Village and head to
the 4th area to end the game.

~END

Does any of you know that this is'nt Square Enix's best work? THey made this game in thier spare time. They were busy making Final Fantasy XIII and Final Fantasy XIV on the PS3. WHich is why the graphics of Echoes of time is abit poor and the story is short.

You know, the graphics for this game were incredible, and that they started making this and finished before final fantasy XIII, dumbshit.

LOL! HAve you seen SHerlotta at the beggining? When you see her at the top of the crystal and it zooms in on her feet, its so boxy. And its just unbelievable how long its taking to make Final Fantasy XIII!
