How to Find Moonstones in Star Ocean: The Last Hope

Moonstones are a necessary synthesis ingredient in "Star Ocean: The Last Hope." With the item creation feature, you can use Moonstones to build some of the game's most powerful weapons and armor. You can find Moonstones once you've completed "Star Ocean: The Last Hope." Before you can begin collecting, you'll have to earn the Darkness Ring and conquer the Cave of the Seven Stars. After that, you'll have access to the Wandering Dungeon, where you can defeat enemies for a steady supply of Moonstones.

Instructions

- 1
  Complete the game's main storyline and watch the credits. Save "Clear Data" to your profile. This will unlock the available post-game content. Reload a saved file and return to the final hall in the Palace of Creation. Enter the left door to fight the Undying Dragon.
- 2
  Defeat the Undying Dragon by juggling him into the air with combos and landing a Critical Hit when you can. Keep your distance when he goes into Rush Mode. Designate one member of your party as the healer, and keep everyone alive as you continue the attack. Eventually, the Undying Dragon will fall and you will earn the Darkness Ring.
- 3
  Go to the Colosseum in Tatroi, then head to the end of the left hallway on the first floor. Locate the Glyph on the wall, and use the Darkness Ring to gain access to the Cave of the Seven Stars.
- 4
  Navigate the dungeon by collecting Stone Fragments on each floor. Take the Stone Fragments to the elevator and place them on the walls. Once you've activated the elevator, you can ride it down to the next level. Defeat the boss enemy on the seventh floor to obtain the Star Dipper, which allows you to pick up the Star on each floor. Collect all seven Stars to gain access to the Inner Sanctum in the South Room on the seventh floor. Here you will battle Gabriel Celeste.
- 5
  Approach the barrier to begin the battle with Gabriel Celeste. Take advantage of his weakness to Stun by equipping a weapon that will inflict the status. Designate two members of the party as healers, and place them in the corners of the battlefield to minimize damage. Dodge Gabriel's attacks and hit him with as many Rush Combos as you can. Use Blindsides to maximize damage. Resurrect any fallen characters, and continue the assault until Gabriel is defeated.

  Go down the elevator in the Old Road to Sanctuary. Speak with Bargo and he will send you to the Wandering Dungeon. Earn Moonstones by defeating the Jade Golem and Grim Reaper enemies in this area.
