=======================================================
Be sure to stop by Nova's caravan for free heals. You may need it if the next dungeon turns out to be too much for you. I recommend having Lloyd learn Tiger Blade, since it deals good damage in only two hits and won't aggravate the boss's overlimit as much as Sword Rain would.
Also, visit the nearby house of Salvation to learn about long-range mode, which zooms the camera out on the world map while making it easier to dodge enemies.
Save before going to Triet, since you can't leave until the next boss. Be sure to bring enough money to buy new gear, and unlike me, make sure to save up enough to get a weapon upgrade for Colette, who will rejoin soon. After talking to the fortune teller, you'll get ambushed on your way out of town and Lloyd is taken prisoner.
At the Sylvarant Base, Lloyd is trapped behind bars, but he can escape using the Sorcerer's Ring on a walking guard. Grab his stuff and fight your way to a puzzle room, where you have to shock the enemies while they're on the electric panels.
Be sure to kill the Desian guard in the west hallway to get the Memory Crystal, which can activate a save point in the westernmost room. Save and try out different combinations for the puzzle while clearing out the treasures in the south and east rooms. Once you get the north room open, save because there's going to be a boss. Fortunately, Genis, Colette, and Kratos rejoin.
[ 43:50 ] Boss: Botta (Hard)
Even when you take out his two minions, he's still pretty tough to deal with due to his overlimit. On hard mode, he also has a high-level tech that can kill anyone who fails to guard. He can also cast Stalagmite, which is deadly at this point of the game because Kratos has yet to teach us how to magic guard.
