Postgame dungeon that utilizes a new inference mechanic introduced in Shiren 6.
This inference mechanic automatically narrows down unidentified items to 3 possibilities.
It's a nice dungeon to practice identification, but the monster table is on the tougher side,
so don't expect to be able to breeze through it without making smart use of items.

Strategy

Inference

New gameplay mechanic introduced in Shiren 6 that is enabled only in certain dungeons.
Check an unidentified item's description to view 3 options as to what the item could be,
then choose how to best use the item based on the list of possible options.

Example:

  • Herb
  • Sedating Grass
  • Dragon Grass

So in this case, you wouldn't want to risk using it when an enemy is adjacent due to Sedating Grass.
Both Sedating Grass and Dragon Grass are good when thrown, and throwing an Herb is harmless
if the target is already at full HP, so you might want to lean towards throwing this grass item.
Identifier Scrolls are common, so you could also wait until you find one of those too.

If an option has already been fully identified, the option will be greyed-out.
Unfortunately, item names assigned by the player are not reflected in the list of possible options.

General

The number of items on the ground is on the high side, sometimes having close to 10 per floor.
However, cursed items are also very common, so a decent amount of items won't actually be usable.
It's best to get into the habit of swinging newly found staves to check for curses.

It's important to utilize inference and save good items instead of just using all items right away.

Try to envision situations where you might use each item, like:

  • If Revival Grass is a possibility, don't use or throw the grass.
  • If a scroll is narrowed down to Confusion or Slumber, save it for a tricky starting room.
  • If a grass is narrowed down to Otogirisou or Dragon Grass, save it for a 1 vs 1 situation.

Nigiri Baby (3-6F) can be used to increase Max Fullness to 150+ for Sumo status if desired.
Sumo status reduces accidents, but keep in mind you can't use Vaulting Staff or Switching Staff,
and some enemies later on are too tough to trade hits with regardless.

Floor Guide

Powerful monsters begin to appear from 7F onwards, so the key is preparing for those enemies.
Synthesis Pot can be found, but you're unlikely to find good equipment, so combine staves instead.
If you performed Nigiri Morph Factory, consider staying in Sumo status from 15F onwards.

1-3F

Chintala (15 HP, 9 atk) and Shagga (18 HP, 6 atk) are tough at Lv1 - retreat to heal as needed.
If you get sandwiched by monsters while retreating, chalk it up to bad luck and restart the dungeon.
Pit Mamel (11 HP, 5 atk) appears on 1-3F, so try to hunt a Cave Mamel to level up if possible.
The easiest method is to use an item like Fortune Staff, Fortune Grass, or Disguising Staff.

Nigiri Baby (17 HP, 8 atk) appears starting on 3F, so create some extra food if desired.
However, don't transform grasses that have a possibility of being Revival Grass.

4-6F

4F is likely the last floor where you can keep up with monsters if you didn't hunt a Cave Mamel.
Mid Chintala (45 HP, 23 atk) appears starting on 5F, so linger on 4F to level up as much as possible.
The strong foe slots like Mid Chintala are only going to get worse the deeper you descend here,
so prioritize items that specifically help you survive against them.

7-9F

Nashagga (70 HP, 21 atk, 20 def) appears on 7-13F, and attacks 2 times per turn - Use items.
The monster table for 7F only has 4 enemies, so Nashagga is especially common on that floor.
Don't bother trying to hunt Thiefwalrus (65 HP, 25 atk) for item drops on 8-11F, as its HP is too high.
Gazer (30 HP, 18 atk) appears from 8-20F, and makes you waste items and turns with its hypnosis.
Overall, it's usually fine to start rushing to the stairs starting from this floor range.

10-14F

Monster attack power increases yet again, and it gets hard to trade hits even with Sumo status.
Brodillo (70 HP, 36 atk, 38 def) has high offensive and defensive stats, so use items against it.
Other monsters besides Brodillo and Nashagga have about 60~70 HP and 24~30 attack.
You can still try to explore a bit if Sumo status is active, but otherwise it's best to rush stairs.

15-19F

Rush to the stairs regardless of whether or not you have Sumo status.
Polygon Shaka (70 HP, 34 atk) always warps in front of you when you're inside a room.
Nigiri Morph (88 HP, 35 atk) has high attack power and also turns inventory items into Large Onigiri.
Greenwalrus (88 HP, 30 atk) steals items, so drop unneeded items to avoid losing important items.

20F

The final floor, but even more powerful monsters get added to the monster table.
Use items against Super Gazer (66 HP, 30 atk), Nigiri Boss (133 HP, 45 atk), and Dragon (120 HP, 45 atk).
Again, just rush to the stairs as fast as possible while utilizing all available items.
