Alternate Eternal Forest Paths

Here's the other Eternal Forest paths. Spoils will be listed after each path. These are the alternate Eternal Forest Paths. See the fourth chapter in the walkthrough for information on the Eternal Forest and how to get to it. Note that the red paths are the harder ones, so the more red paths you take, the more difficult the enemies, but the sweeter the rewards you'll get once you complete the path. For paths 17-21, I would recommend waiting until you've leveled up significantly and have got both X and Zero's Ultimate Armors before attempting them. You'll see what I mean when you get to them.

Please see the enemy database for information on individual enemies.
