Later in the game, the prince becomes ill after staying at the inn in [[Beran]]. The other heroes must travel and retrieve a [[Yggdrasil Leaf|Leaf of the World Tree]] in order to cure him and continue adventuring. | |||
In the | The prince plays a support role in battle, as he does not have great strength and cannot equip the best weapons and armor in the NES version. He also has the weakest resistances to magic and breath attacks. Early in the game his magic will be important for attacking if wish to finish battles faster, later in the game his magic becomes less useful for attacking until Defeat is learned. | ||
In the GBC remake he was give the ability to equip better weapons on top of some weapons having been given a power boost. His attack spells were adjusted to such that Firebane does considerably more damage, though Firebal has a lower max. damage than it used to. Defeat seems to work more consistently on enemies, with some stronger enemies possibly being now immune however. He still suffers in terms of defense and survivability still having weakest resistances to magic and breath attacks. | |||
Overall he is an attempt at a balanced character, his spells for dealing damage and healing HP aren't as powerful as the Princess or Moonbrooke's and his strength and weapon options aren't as good as the Prince of Midenhall's. However he gets, very helpful spells such as Stopspell and Stepguard. His spells are more MP efficient for what they do especially in the GBC remake with the power boosts. | |||
