The party is in the midst of performing weapon skill quests at Swinedimples Academy. South of the entrance to the auditorium, they find Boomer, a lad who gives them the first boomerang skill task. This kid says 'mega' more than Mega Man in Captain N: The Game Master. He assigns them Quest 085: Comeback Kid. There are two parts to this quest.

First, he wants them to take out a Metal Slime with a Power Throw. So, they Zoom to Coffinwell and make their way to the Quarantomb (time index 2:22). Naturally, killing a Metal Slime with a Power Throw is a little tricky. For one thing, Power Throw isn't the best ability to use against a Metal Slime. It helps to boost agility with Acceleratle and soften the Metal Slime up with a couple of attacks first.

After a bit, Heorot manages to kill a Metal Slime with Power Throw (time index 6:41).

Then, back at Swinedimples, the party chats with Boomer again (time index 7:31). Now, he wants the party to help him pass his boomerang exam, since he hasn't been having the best of luck.

Well, the party isn't given a choice. Not even a "but thou must." The bridge that Boomer was talking about is in the eastern section of Urdus Marshland, accessible from the Snowberian Coast.

Along the way, Heorot reaches Paladin Level 30 and earns 5 skill points (time index 9:51).

When the party reaches the bridge in the Urdus Marshland, a little scene occurs (time index 12:15). Ah ha ha, it looks like Boomer isn't the first student that's pulled this stunt.

Before leaving, the party harvests some Mirrorstone in the northeast of this area (time index 13:45).

Back in Swinedimples, the party chats with Boomer (time index 14:13). It turns out Boomer didn't need the assist after all. Nice going, Boomer. He rewards the party with an Eaglewing boomerang for their help.

Next, the party will board the Starflight Express again to see if they can take the Fyggs back to the Observatory.

Thanks for watching!
