Easy money
Talk to the priest that saves the game and ask to give a donation. If you have less than 100 Z he will give you 10 Z until you reach 100 Z. After this happens, deposit the coins, return and repeat as needed. Note: If you try to have the priest give you more than 100 coins he will take them as a donation.

Go to the grass areas that move around on the map and make sure that you have Bow. Set Bow as the leader and press [A] to shoot a rock or stone. Aim for the animals. If you hit then enough of them, they will turn into Roast which sells for 200 Z. Note: Watch out for the weak monsters.

Rest for free
Early in the game in the pub in the second town, you can rest for free. Talk to the person at the table and ask him to pass the time while it is day. You will be healed fully. You can do this until you get Katt.

Life Armor
The Life Armor can be found in the fishing spot northwest of Gate, directly next to the cave. This is the strongest armor in the game for the Hero.

Life Bracelet
Immediately after you fight Barubary with Ryu alone, he gives you a hint to find the Life Bracelet. Go directly right with Katt and smash the rock ahead. Continue right and reach across the gap with Sten, then open the treasure box to find the Life Bracelet.

StarBringer Sword
The StarBringer Sword (StarrSD) can be found by standing on a blue "chance" square in the Thieves' Tomb and fighting repeatedly.

Monster Island
Once you have the whale or the great bird and are at least level 35, go to the top of the hunk of land where granny's house used to be. Go directly east. You should see an island at the top of the screen. Go there to reach Monster Island. There are four monsters on this island, as well as a house with Bo and Karn from Breath Of Fire. Use the following information to defeat the monsters that can be found here.

Gonghead
This is a giant version of the creature. Do not waste AP on it; just keep attacking. It casts Cure 4 each turn after the first, but runs out of AP quickly. It will only attack you twice at the most.


Have at least one magic user in your party and cast your strongest magic on him while the other three characters fight normally. It is also recommended that you have shaman forms at this point, because they increase your abilities.


M. Sludge
Cast Death with either Bleu or Nina. It will kill it automatically.


Fly
This creature resembles an over-sized fly. If you have Chop Chop, use it. Otherwise, use a Dragon ability. Magic does not affect it.


Use non-elemental magic on him, such as Chop Chop. Use is magic items and they will kill it instantly.


Goo (gold colored)
Use the G. Dragon technique to bring its HP to 1 and you should be able to defeat it from there. These are very strong monsters; they take a lot of damage with normal attacks. These are very rare fights.

Finding Bleu
On the same island as the Thieves Tomb go there. From the Thieves Tomb, go east until you reach the other side of the mountain line. You should see a little whirlwind shape in the sand. Enter here and talk to all the spirits, even the ones in the back rooms. After that, go to Magic school in Hometown and on the second floor talk to the girl on the left in the left classroom. She will turn into Bleu.

After you get the whale, go to the desert at the southeast corner of map. Walk around until you find a faint circle. When you enter it, you will find some ghosts saying Bleu is out. Then, go to the town where you started your game (after you go away, the second town where you and Bow end up). Go to the magic building and talk to all the students. One will say she is Bleu and join you. Bleu starts at level 35 and is very powerful with magic.

Fun with Bleu
After you get Bleu as a party member, go to township and make sure she is not in your active party. Go to her room, which on the last floor and final room. She is sleeping. When you talk to her, she mumbles about Ryu and goes back to sleep.

Namada's Strength
Boombada is a powerful Non-Elemental attack, which at 50 AP will reduce any enemy group, short of Bosses, by 50% of the current enemies' HP. However getting this attack is not easy and requires strict timing and rhythm. To get this powerful attack go to Namada after the Grand Chruch at Evari is destroyed. Help the brother at the bells ring to announce prayer time. This is where it gets difficult, as some of the notes of the music sound overlapped but they are not. The brother will ring the high notes and low notes as you ring the Drum ([A]) and Tuning Fork ([B]). It sounds complex, but is not. The scale is similar to:

- = High note
_ = Low note
A = Drum
B = Tuning Fork
() = (space) No note played.

-A-B--()A _B_A__()B ___B_-AB _-_-A( )A

Listen carefully to the way the notes are played and to the starts and stops of the sounds. If done correctly, the brother will thank you for helping him and request that you talk to him again with the person who he will teach Namada's Strength to. It is recommended that Nina get this to fully round out her abilities.

Experience for final battle
Just before the final Boss, where the Dragon Statue and Cleansing Water are located, fight any monster and use Gold Dragon. After that, use the Cleansing Water to restore your AP and HP and repeat until reaching the desired level. This can also be use near any Cleansing Water pools that are occupied by monsters.

Maximum attack
There are a few things required to maximize your Attack stat. First, you need the Cafe (the place that you have a woman cook some of your items together to get a new item). This is done by choosing the correct carpenter for Township (your town). The requirement is the Whale, which you will get during the storyline. Go to Guntz, which is located slightly north of the center of the map. Go to the items shop and buy as many ShaveIce as possible, keeping them in multiples of four. Then, go back to the Cafe and have the lady cook a few PwrFood. These raise your attack by 1 point. When you run out of money, go just northwest of Township to the island where there is A Recovery Spring. Get more money there. Note: Sometimes the lady accidentally makes Charcoal instead of the PwrFood.

Unlimited money
Note: This trick requires two Game Boy Advances, two games and a link cable. Select the best file and put the best item you can spare in the bank (for example, the Shadow Dagger or lots of Herbs). Copy the file and link the Game Boy Advances. Trade the best item from the copy file, but not from the original. Then, erase the copy of the original and repeat entire process. When you have as many items as desired, trade them back and sell them.

Use the following trick for unlimited money after the township upgrade. When you choose your carpenter in Capitan, choose the standard house carpenter from the right most house. He will go to your township and cook any king of ingredients plus build a new set of houses (3). When you get the second set of houses (6), recruit Hanz from Hometown. He will supply you with items. Buy three Cond. Up at 1000 Z each. For a total of 3000 Z, cook it to get the GoldBar that you can sell at 6000 Z. Repeat this as needed to get a lot of money very quickly. Sometimes the cooking produces a charcoal, but it is very rare. Once you have enough money you can spend some to raise your stats. Go back to Hanz and buy two Cond.Up for 2000 Z, then cook them to obtain one Dinker (+1 Agility); or buy two Medicate for 1000 Z, then cook them to obtain one PwrFood (+1 Strength).
