Caoimhe, Antistrophe, Brontë arrived to Burzin with a clear goal: Find out whether the catastrophe in Burzin is tied to the mysterious malediction known only as Sourcerot. But seeing the town in ashes makes another objective clear: Stopping the fires from continuing, no matter what is causing them. Now, they seek answers that will lead them to investigate not only into the town’s history, but into the lives of some of its oldest residents…
This week on Perpetua: The Flames of Burzin Pt. 03
Teribald’s House of Chance
This is where the main story route I took kicked off, but it’s also where I lost a TON of asta. Wurdzin doesn’t make any sense to me, but if you can get a lucky streak with your guesses, I guess you could really break the game economy here!
House M’Shalia
LOTS of lore here. There are way more things in the upstairs rooms and attics that you interact with than you might think. Make sure to turn on the option that makes interactables shiny!
House of Benediction
Obviously this is where the big showdown is, but did you know that if you go here during the day time you can get healed, get your debuffs cleansed, and get a buff!
Town Hall & Jail & House Burzin
I think you can advance through the main plot here instead of through the House of Chance/M’Shalia route, but I haven’t had a chance to load my old save and try it yet. Let me know on the forum and I’l update this!
Burned Down Buildings
You can check for clues at each of these locations, but the most important one is in the southwest. That’s where the Saloon burned down.
Mining Supplies
This is basically a “tool store” from other towns, so if you need any consumables from those, you can get them here.
Clean Water Lodge & Crebbs Potions & Poultices
I listed these together because they share the same interior on screen, just with a door between the two front desks. You get to stay here for free as long as the main story is ongoing (assuming you rescued Frenk), so make sure to use it before you leave town. The next time you come back, he’ll charge you!.
Wilfer’s Wits and Weaponry
If you happen to have the asta, there are some pretty great weapons here! The Solium Bow (Dex+Dex, HR+8 Fire Damage, gives you Resistance to Fire) is especially great! Also, if you interact with the third bookcase three times, you can find “An Accounting of Spiritual Matters,” which gives you a huge bonus when fighting the boss here, plus can be used afterwards as a mage weapon.
Serah’s Surcoats
I think the flame resistant armor is overpriced, but the Sungleam Shield is GREAT for Antistrophe. It’s a big upgrade for both of his defenses, plus you can basically give people a solar flare from DBZ XD
Residential District
Mostly just NPCs to talk to about things here. I love the two brothers who hate each other.
First Bank of Burzin
Always remember to deposit any extra asta you have into the bank. Not only will it prevent you from losing some if you die in combat, it also actually slowly gains in value! I guess they have interest in Perpetua!
Post Office
This probably deserves its whole own entry, but did you know that if you have both East and West saves, you can actually transfer items between them? You just choose the “Send a Gift to a Random Person” option and pay the fee. The “random person” is actually a character in your other save game! It does take a little while to get there though.
Abandoned Buildings
Just a good place to grind against lanterns!
