Hints
Burst Blade
When fighting against Darkham and his bodyguards, defeat
Darkham first for Kharg's Burst Blade, which nearly doubles his
attack arc width.
Dragon's Wrath and Storm Medallion
When you fight the two giant dragons in Darc's story,
kill the Golden Dragon for a Dragon's Wrath, which puts Darc's
counterattack to 100, or the Silver Dragon for a Storm Medallion.
If you want both items, take the extra time to steal from one
dragon after killing the first.
Herbs
Use the following trick to get ten free Herbs. In Chapter
1 of Darc's story, after you get Densimo into your party go to
the entrance of Gorma's House. Look to the left, and you will
see a yellow skinny Orcon walking around. Talk to him and he will
note that Densimo is in your party, causing him to start talking
about the five Wonders of Orcoth. Pretend that you care about
what he says and say that you will listen. He will ask you a few
f times if you are still interested in listening. Lie and say
"Yes". Eventually he will ask you how many words were
in the spiel he just gave. Choose the one that reads 600-800 (the
fourth choice) and he will give you ten Herbs. Note: You must
do this while Densimo is in your party. Doing it before or after
results in you obtaining nothing.
Better aiming
To aim better without moving from your current position,
when controlling your character, hold [R1] during a battle.
An arc will appear. The highlighted arc shows the range where
you can attack. Aim at the enemy and attack.
Joint attack
You can do a joint attack on enemies whenever your
character's body is burning with fire. You get this burning effect
when you receive a certain amount of damage. When using that character
to attack, a nearby ally will team up with you.
Dealing more damage
Attacking the enemies from behind deals more damage
than from up front. Use that angle of attack whenever possible.
Defeating Black Abyss
It is possible to defeat Black Abyss at level 33 for
both Darc and Kharg. A long range character (Maru recommended)
is required. Before you start the battle, equip all your character's
weapons with at least two Diamond Coating or something else that
increases your attack greatly Equip most of your characters with
at least two Diamond Coatings is recommended. You will also need
at least two Stone Bags for each character, and extra Gales that
make you speed up in the party items for backup. Allow your character
to learn a long and wide range moves. Make sure to sell all your
Elixir and other items that effect enemies items, and buy lot
of Strongest Herd and a dozen Revival Medicines. Give the six
characters at least three Greatest and make sure to have one healer.
Store that character with more Strongest Herd and three Revival
Medicines. However, do not throw items that temporary raise ATT
away, as they will be needed. When you are ready to battle, select
Maru with you and Demelia, or a party with Darc, Kharg, Paulette,
Ganz, Volk and Maru. Black Abyss has three moves: summon Brain
Cell to attack, absorb HP from nearby, and a beam that deals lot
of damage across the room (but not the edge of the room). This
attack will regain his black mist and raise its defense. Black
Abyss has great defense. You must kill Brain Cell to weaken it.
If you notice the black mist around him slowly lighten, use the
following strategy. If you have master Black Abyss moves, then
you are ready. Separate your six characters, three to each side,
and stay at the edge of the room. Kill each Brain Cell. Do not
use too many moves on them, but on Black Abyss. Note: If you are
out of SP for moves, re-equip that character's accessories to
Gale to raise that character's speed (especially when Maru is
out of SP). Raise Maru's ATT with items. Once you notice the mist
surrounding Black Abyss has disappeared, do not go near Black
Abyss. You will find that the Black Abyss has become inactive.
Use this opportunity to slowly kill Black Abyss with your best
long range attack (Maru).
Get more skill/magic
When certain characters "class up" at the
end of the battle screen, this indicates you can learn new skill
or magic. Go to the menu, select the character that "classed
up" and select "Skill". The magic/skill menu will
appear, displaying both the learned magic/skill and skill/magics
that have not been learned. Choose the one you want to learn and
pay the "SP cost" to get it. Note: You get SP by attacking
and , killing enemies.
Chest behind dog in Milmarma
You will need to have a bone to give to the dog, Rover.
It can be obtained by checking the two rocks behind the old man
in the small land platform leading to the palace. You will not
get any item. It is just charity work to help little Rover get
a new owner.
Items
When fighting enemies such as the Delzweld soldiers,
defeat the commanders first. They often carry equipment you can
use or sell.
When you fight Cameillia, and afterwards Droguza, find the blue
and green boxes on the battle field and break them open before
ending the battle. The contents are well worth the effort.
When inside the Flying Castle, do not go directly to the elevators
to fight the Divine Ruler. Instead, search each floor for the
treasure rooms. There is powerful equipment for every character
spread throughout the fortress.
