Baten Kaitos The Cloud Passage Story
Once in The Cloud Passage, head through the first area to reach the second area. In this area, you’ll find a Man with a Bracelet.
In order to gain his entry (Qutayba), you’ll need to have first saved his 2 children from drowning in the previous area of the Lesser Celestial River. Speak with him to gain his entry of Qutayba in the Quzman Family Tree Genealogy. Afterwards, continue through The Cloud Passage. Please note that the Albireo (flying creatures) drop the Triangulum (Star Map Fragment). In the third area, follow the third path to reach the fourth area bringing you to a cloud gathering machine.
Interact with it and turn it on then interact with it again to get the Magna Essence of the Cloud. Bring this back to the third area and use it on the darker cloud in the middle to build a bridge.
Next, return to the cloud machine to get another essence of the cloud then head back to the third area and follow the left path north. This will bring you to the fourth area. Follow the middle path north and interact with the gap directly right of the red flower to build a bridge.
Follow the path north to reach a Magnus: Cygnus and Magnus: Aqua Burst Lv. 2. After you use the red flower to save, backtrack to the beginning of Area 4. There will be a small section you can use to reach the westernmost path. Use this path to reach the wooden bridge!
As soon as you touch this bridge, a cutscene will trigger followed immediately by a boss fight with an Iron Beetle I. This creature regularly uses its Nitro Boost skill which boosts its attack. It follows this up with the Voldocannon which is part of a 5 combo attack with the cannon itself averaging 240-250 damage. It resists fire and dark and is weak to water and light. Make sure to snap a picture of it before taking this boss down! As a reward for defeating the Iron Beetle I, you’ll receive a Shark Tooth, which can be used to upgrade Gibari’s Class Level to 3.
After you defeat the boss, exit The Cloud Passage to reach the world map where you’ll be able to travel to Sheliak, the Castle Town!
