It is possible to bypass doing the Bottom Level 1 Magitek field when doing the northern/top boss by going through the Level 2 Magitek field then returning and opening the Level 3 Magitek field once you have 4 Photocells, this seems unintended, and I will admit I did this a few times until I realized what I was doing, but many people seem to do it and I can't believe it was intended as a shortcut.
Greetings Kittkatt!
Thank you for taking the time to report this concern for us! We certainly would not want players inadvertantly exploiting such a thing if it is not intended. We should get this checked out and I would be more then happy to submit this for you, however, I would like to ask that you please give us some additional information on this matter. Please fill out as much as you're able from the following template for us. Upon receipt, we will submit this for review for you! Although it may seem as though this template is not necessary because it is personalized, the information you give might help find the exact cause as to why this is happening and whether or not it should be altered.
Thank you for your time and apologies for this inconvenience!

Steps:
1. Collect the first four Photocells.
2. Unlock the northern Magitek device to unlock Level II Magitek Field.
3. Continue east and collect another four Photocells.
4. Use the Return command from the menu to return to the dungeon entrance.
5. Go back to the northern Magitek device again and use the cells to unlock Level III Magitek Field, while completely bypassing the need to use the southern Magitek device to unlock the Level I Magitek Field.
6. Continue towards the northern boss room while collecting four more Photocells.
7. Unlock the Northern Boss room, defeat Shaula, all without ever unlocking the Level I Magitek Field.
You don't get as many chests after the boss if you do it that way.
