This page offers a guide on how to complete Chapter 1-03 Clues in the Ruin in Tower of Fantasy.
Investigate Ruin A-01¶
Enter into Ruin A-01.
Your first task during this portion of the chapter is to head over to the ruin that you and Shirli uncovered using the fixed deconstructor. It’s down by the river!
Once there, interact with the entrance to open it up. Once inside, head over and speak to the Smart Servant, Peanut. You discover that Panut has been on his own for 48 years waiting for his master!
Explore Ruin A-01¶
After speaking to Peanut, interact with the Enchanted Cube-type Relic at the center of the room. It’ll unlock the attack Missile Barrage, which can be used to destroy obstacles or attack enemies. Use this newly learned attack to smash open the rocky barricade in front of you. Before you pass throough, make sure to loot the chest to the right!
After opening up the room you’ll need to fight some Aberrants below.
Walk up to the doorway, and you will see a dip into another room with Hyena Elites inside. Feel free to throw canisters in for some free damage and to get a burn on them. Jump in and beat them up. There’s a chest in the broken wall on all difficulties you can pick up that’s unmissable.
Cross the bridge which nature has taken over, and you’ll enter another room with tree roots dangling down, metal walls and bombs all over the place. Kill the Hyena Elite and Snipers in the room, and you’re good. Moreso, this bit has three chests, with a chest spawning for each difficulty. The easy one is in the back of the room beside the corrugated metal and roots, the normal difficulty one is inside the state on the left wall, and the hard one is behind a wall to the left of the stairs. You need to blow up all these using the canisters in the room. Don’t worry, they respawn if you missed them.
You now need to blow the actual wall up in the room. It’s the larger room with orange on the wall. Once it is blown up and the enemies are defeated, you can walk into the boss room and face off against Hyenatron.
How to Defeat Hyenatron¶
We teach you the core tips you need to beat the Hyenatron boss.
The main thing you need to know is that Hyenatron is not as hard as it seems. On easy, you won’t have much trouble fighting this, but on hard, this will hit quite hard if you are below the recommended gear score. However, all of its moves are easily kiteable.
As for the skills, the boss does a few different things. Most are fairly basic, but there are some very deadly skills. The main ones you want to watch for are the Fire emission. The boss puts its hand onto the ground, and then fire emits in a large radius. Watch for the red circle, then bail out as soon as possible. Otherwise, you’ll take damage and receive a burn that will deal a fair amount of damage.
The important skill is the machine gun. The boss will show a red alert warning in front of it, then its Gatling gun will repeatedly fire at you. Hyenatron does lots of damage here, and the only way to avoid it is via running around in a circle at some distance.
As for the skills, it does a basic missile strike that you need to keep running to avoid. It also has a shield skill, as most bosses do. Hyenatron has a charged melee strike that repeats three times. You can use a dodge on this move to get the slowing barrier to do more damage.
After defeating the boss, you’ll be able to leave through the exit now the barrier has dispelled. Interact with the pyramid outside to complete the ruin! You’ll earn 4000 EXP and 1700 
Gold amongst other things as a reward!
Investigate the Clues¶
After leaving the ruin, head down the path across the river to investigate some clues. Once you’ve watched a brief cutscene involving the Astra Omnium Tower, your next task will be to head over to the tower and take the elevator up.
Atop the tower, you’ll find Franz and Palu. After speaking with them you’ll have the option to head to Hykros. If you choose to accept and go to Hykros, this will conclude 1-03 and begin 1-04.
Head up to the top of Astra Omnium Tower!
