Dragon Quest Builders eGuide Alefgard Adventure Chapter 1: Cantlin

Challenges

Complete within 20 days

Terra Incognita Reward: can build fire blades

Raise base level to 5

Terra Incognita Reward: can build stone furniture

Defeat three dragons

Terra Incognita Reward: can build display stands

There are three dragons in Cantlin, one on each of the three initial islands. You can defeat them in any order.

Dragons use two attacks: fire breath and tail whip. Breathing fire is their default attack. They tail whip only when you’re in melee range. Both attacks come with plenty of warning, but the dragons recover quickly.

Working in your favour is the dragons’ unwillingness to move. They spin in place to track your movement and attack, but they do not move otherwise. This behavior makes it possible for you to place an evil idol near the dragon and let it do the damage while you focus on staying alive.

Build the Cantlin Garden

Terra Incognita Reward: can make guard’s garb, villager’s vesture, and trader’s tunic

To create the Cantlin garden, you need to assemble the following inside a (rather large) empty room: bench, any flower (x10), any plant (x5), water block (x8), plumberry tree, brazier.

Simply building the Cantlin garden is enough to complete this challenge; even building it in Terra Incognita will work. To get the plumberry tree, plant a plumberry seedling (don’t place anything over it!) and wait two nights for it to mature.

To increase your degree of difficulty (there are no bonus points; this would be for your personal satisfaction), try building the Cantlin garden within the confines of your base. You must dig a channel from a nearby source of water to your base and build the garden around it.

Complete the Hammerhood’s Grave

Terra Incognita Reward: can build featherfall footwear

The hammerhood’s grave is southwest of the blue teleportal arrival gate. To learn how to build the necessary memorials, go through the red teleportal. Travel north to a small island and talk to the brownie there. Return to Hammerhood, then build the required memorials and place them in the proper locations to unlock a treasure chest and get a seed of life.
