This is the eleventh part of my quick walkthrough for DQM:J, covering the shrine on Fert Isle, and the sequence before the tournament finals.

There is no dungeon on Fert Isle, just a relatively easy boss battle. This boss does have Double Trouble, though, which allows it to make two moves per turn. It doesn't cast spells or hit very hard, but it can poison you, and cause you to lose 1/8 of max HP each turn. It can also counter physical attacks, so it's highly recommended that you bring casters to this fight.

In this walkthrough I will briefly guide you through the main islands and dungeons of the game, and show you where to go and what to do, etc. However, I will not tell you what monsters to catch, what skills to learn, and etc. - those are for you to figure out on your own, as customization is a big part of the fun.
Hint: This isn't Pokémon, and the species of the monsters are not as important as the skills and traits they possess, since any monster can learn any skill in this game.

Also, I will not probe every nook and cranny of the map to find rare monsters or secret items (look on GameFAQs for those), but I will show you the locations of all the important items, which are only a handful in the game.

Lastly, this game is really not that hard, so if you find a stage or boss too tough, then it's time to upgrade your monsters, and especially their skills. Remember, focus on skills, not species or stats! (If you just want to enjoy the story, then those super-complicated, chain-synthesized uber-monsters are just not worth your time!)

Thanks for watching!

Footnote:
1. I will try my best to avoid spoilers, so I usually skip all story-related cut-scenes.
2. Due to time constraint, I will try to avoid unnecessary battles, or edit them out after. I will also do all my grinding, catching, and syntheses off-screen.
3. My parties in the game are purposely over-leveled, because I want to get through the stages as quickly as possible, without grinding on the way (which you'll probably do).
*4. It's hard to do video walkthroughs for this kind of games, so comments and suggestions are welcome. But, if you don't like it, please kindly go watch something else, and don't flame.
