Essential Tips for Garlemald

- Magitek Enemies: The zone is densely packed with high-level Magitek enemies. Be careful when grabbing the current near the Forum Patens in the northeast.
Embarking on this quest is an invitation to witness the heart of the Empire. From the frozen ruins of the capital to the survivors hiding in the station, every discovery brings you closer to mastering the skies of Garlemald.
