Regardless of your gearing, the goal is full {{ItemIcon|Glacia God Platebody|Glacia Armour|nolink=true}} from the {{ItemIcon|Scroll of Glacia|Scrolls of Glacia}}, with the {{ItemIcon|Warlock Ring}} from {{ItemIcon|Water Chest|Water Chests}} being a neat bonus and the {{ItemIcon|Warlock Amulet}} not being very useful. The {{ItemIcon|Glacia Godsword}} is not worth grinding for, nor is the {{ItemIcon|Cloudburst Staff}}. The staff doesn't provide any {{ItemIcon|Air Rune|Air Runes}}, which are required for all standard spells, so where you can use a staff, you'll likely want to use your {{ItemIcon|Mystic Air Staff}} to prevent needing to farm {{MonsterIcon|Wizard|Wizards}} for {{ItemIcon|Air Rune|Air Runes|nolink=true}}, or {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} in the later game for rune-efficient DPS. {{ItemIcon|Water Chest|Water Chests}} are actually the best place to farm {{ItemIcon|Ancient Rune|Ancient Runes}} due to the low drop rate and amount from {{ItemIcon|Magic Chest|Magic Chests}}. You will need enough runes to cast {{Icon|type=spell|Gust}} around 75-100 times, which is upwards of {{ItemIcon|Ancient Rune|Ancient Runes|qty=500}}, {{ItemIcon|Air Rune|qty=1800}} and {{ItemIcon|Havoc Rune|qty=500}} for {{ZoneIcon|Into the Mist}} later down the line. It may be worth stockpiling more than these amounts in case any issues arrise during the fight. If {{Icon|type=spell|Slicing Winds}} is used instead (not recommended), one should collect enough runes for at least 200 casts. Hold on to a {{ItemIcon|Magic Wand (Elite)}} if you get one and have the bank space to spare, as it's the best one-handed wand you'll have access to for awhile.
