Sand Prince


 * This article is about the boss. For the item, see Sand Prince (item).

The Sand Prince is a boss in Golden Sun: Dark Dawn, found in the Alchemy Well located in Ayuthay. He is awakened by the Tree Flute and challenges Matthew and co. to a battle. His power reverses the Alchemy Well, while his Mercury counterpart, the Ice Queen, reverses the Alchemy Forge. Being Aligned with Mars, he is weak to Mercury Psynergy and immune to Mars Psynergy.

Defeating this boss gives the player the Sand Prince Stone, which when equipped to a Mars Adept, bestows the Arid Heat Psynergy.

Abilities

 * Arid Heat- simple Mars aligned attack Range of 3.
 * Arid Blast- Stronger version of Arid Heat. Range of 3.
 * Arid Scorch- Strongest attack, strongest form of Arid Heat. Range of 3.
 * Earthquake- Somewhat powerful Earth Psynergy that hits ALL 4 characters.
 * Attack- Basic Attack

Strategies
The easiest way to defeat the Sand Prince is to use Djinn to summon Mercury/Nereid (by now you should have 2 Mercury Djinn). His only real threatening attack is Arid Scorch, so healing isn't really necessary. Use Forge to raise Rief's attack.
