Tales of Phantasia

Platform: Snes (or SFC)
Released: 15.12.1995

Based on: NTSC-J-version (SHVC-ATVJ-JPN)



- The damage you deal is (cATP - eDFP)(x+c)er
 × cATP: Character's Attack Power
 × eDFP: Enemy's Defense Power
 × x: General damage multiplier (1,0 by default). A critical hit (c)
 increases the multiplier by 0,5 and also has a chance of inflicting
 Stun, which lasts for a couple of seconds.
 × e: Elemental variable (1,0; 2,0; 0,5; 0; -1)
 × r: Random multiplier (1,03125; 1,0625; or 1,125).
- Some of Cless' battle skills ignore the enemy's DFP. I refer to these
moves as 'energy-based.' These attacks can't be evaded, but they also
have no critical hit roll.

- Damage received is (eATP - cDFP)*4(x+c)er
 × Many ATP values are a fraction (0,25; 0,5; 0,75) lower than the listed
 value. I've rounded these up to keep things a bit simpler.

- Base ATP is Strength.
- Base DFP is Constitution.
- Agility is *not* the base stat for Accuracy (Meichuu) or Evade (Kaihi).
These are all separate stats that increase from leveling up (Agility &
Accuracy: 1 or 2 points per level. Evade: 0 or 1 point per level).
- Your Luck stat may vary greatly.
- Cless reaches 9999 HP around Lv87 (unboosted).
- Arche will have about 9100 HP at Lv99.
- Cless and Chester will have around 150 Str at Lv99 (1 or 2 points per
level). Klarth will have 105 (1 point per level).
- All characters will have around 50 Constitution at Lv99 (0 or 1 point
per level).
- By manipulating your stat gains (ie. keep loading the game until you
get the stat gain(s) you want), you can indeed end up with 50 more points
of Str and/or Con. Normally, I would advise against stat manipulation,
as it's hardly worth the effort, but ToP is a bit of an exception. 50
points of Str will increase the damage of Shugohoujin by 1/3 (minimal
impact on anything else, though), and 50 points of Con will decrease
physical damage by 200 per hit. Nothing massive by any means, especially
when considering you need to reach max level to reap the full benefits
(which is indeed typically the main issue), but it's still worth
considering - if you're the obsessive type, that is.
- You recover 5% TP at the end of a battle.
- After using an item during battle, it takes 5 seconds before you can
use the Item command again. When using healing items, it takes 2,1 seconds
for the effect to kick in.
- You should disable new spells as you obtain them, except for healing.
Magic can certainly be useful, but using it indiscriminately will quickly
drain your TP.
- At AI setting 3, Mint will use a single-target healing spell once a
character's HP drops below 2/3. She will use Nurse/Resurrection if
more than one character has fallen below 2/3 HP.
- On settings 1 and 2, Mint will use support magic in addition to healing.
In regards to healing, she'll use single-target healing when a character
is below either 1/3 or 1/6, depending one whether or not she has access
to a multi-target healing spell (if so, then the threshold is 1/6).
Multi-target healing is used when more than one character is below 1/3.
I really can't recommend using setting 1 or 2. You really don't want
your characters staying around 40% HP, much less 20%.
- When the AI uses multi-target healing, the subject with the lowest
relative HP will be the main target.
- The AI will not use multi-target healing for a single target even if
you disable single target healing spells.
- Healing spells and offensive magic have a base power and a level modifier
(as seen in the misc. file).
- The random variable in healing spells increases the amount by 0,5% at most.
- Most spells and some enemy special attacks freeze time for the duration
of the animation.
- Most spells have the maximum area of effect, meaning all targets visible
on the screen will be affected. You still choose one target when casting
these spells, and the screen will then center on this target. It's best
to cast spells manually when there are multiple targets, as the AI will
likely target the nearest enemy, which will easily results in the enemies
in the back being unaffected. You also often need to knock the enemy back
and herd them together to maximize efficiency.
- Mages have a 2 second cooldown after casting a spell.
- Subjects flinch from having another subject pushed on to them. As such,
it's best to give your mages some breathing room.
- Poison: 10 HP every 1-4 seconds during battle. 1 HP every ~2-10 steps
on the field.
- Bleed (from Wall spells): 30 HP every 2s (elemental; can be halved).
- Paralysis / Petrification: Unable to act. Paralyzed characters can
still be damaged.
- Quite a few enemies can inflict status ailments with their attacks.
This will happen even if they're not inflicting any damage.
- If all characters are incapacitated (dead, petrified, paralyzed), it's
game over.
- Enemies will try to cast spells even if they don't enough TP to do so
or even if they're silenced.
- Exp is divided among active party members.
- Paralyzed characters will not gain any Exp, but they will still cause
the Exp to be divided.
- Hold L or R while at the edge of the battlefield to run away from
battle. The time required to do so is determined by your active party's
total level compared to the enemy's total level (it doesn't average the
levels out like in later installments). If you're paralyzed or petrified,
you can run away regardless of your position.
- Holy/Dark Bottles will decrease/increase encounter rate for 250 tiles.
- There are several events, both mandatory and optional, that can only
be triggered after talking to specific NPCs.
- Once you're confident in your abilities, you should definitely try
speedrunning the game.
- The game features a hidden Hard Mode, triggered by starting a new game
by pressing all four facial buttons at the same time. A voice clip will
tell you if you got it right. The only thing that changes on Hard is
that enemies have double ATP. Needless to say, this makes things *very*
unpleasant. It's definitely not for the faint of heart.
- Healing items
 Apple Gummy       | 30% HP        Orange Gummy      | 30% TP
 Lemon Gummy       | 60% HP        Pine Gummy        | 60% TP
 Mix Gummy         | 30% HP&TP     Panacea Bottle    | Heal status
 Miracle Gummy     | 60% HP&TP     Life Bottle       | Revive with 25% HP
 Elixir / Bijoubu  | 100% HP&TP                         (takes 6,5s)

   Bugs
- Hitting multiple enemies with a single normal attack produces an increase
in the damage multiplier for one hit (possibly intentional?).
- Because of the delay in single-target healing spells, Mint may cast a
healing spell twice.
- Characters with status immunity may still briefly be afflicted by the
ailment (likely prompting an unnecessary response from Mint).
- The Persia Boots cause elemental resistance to not work properly. As a
result, a character may absorb an element they're not supposed to absorb.
It can even happen to non-elemental special attacks that you were never
supposed to be able to absorb.
- There also seems to be an issue with the way the game handles your
characters absorbing elemental physical attacks and, as a result, they
will heal you for 9999 points.
- Once, I sorted my items to list tools first, and it gave me the Sefira
effect.
- The play time counter bugs out a little if it exceeds 99:59 (which
will certainly never happen in normal circumstances). Instead of 100,
it shows 10, but it seems to run normally after that.

Items (nc): 10 G, Ringo				\\\ Totis ||
Default (Cless): Longsword, Leather Armor (Artifact), Wood Shield, Manto
Default (Chester): Self Bow S, Leather Armor, Manto
- You can skip the credits part of the opening event.
- You'll start off at Level 1 with 2 Apple Gummies, 100 Gald and the
key items Pendant and Wood Sack S (you can check your key items by
choosing Kichouhin o Miru in the Item menu).
- You should tweak the settings a bit. I set message speed to max,
Confirm to Y and turn off Encounter Kakunin and the voices (not all
voices are turned off). When Encounter Kakunin is on, the camera moves
to the right at the beginning of a battle.
- There's no way to manually sort specific items in your inventory. You
can only use the buttons to sort items according to certain attributes.
I tend not to use them myself. Instead, I try to manipulate things to
my liking by getting rid of insignificant items at the top of the list
(Manto, Cheese, etc.) just before getting an item I want at the top
(such as the 60% healing items).
- Items you've recently received will have their names displayed in
green. At most 8 items will be highlighted like so.
- There's really nothing of interest going on here. The old lady at the
inn asks you to move the Bushbaby statue and place it in front of the
window. You'll get 10 G for that. If you move it without first agreeing
to help, you'll get nothing.
- You can get an apple from the old man in one of the establishments.
You can either keep it or give it to Amy.

- Cless has three different normal attacks: a basic ground attack, an
uppercut and a jump attack.
 × The basic attack naturally involves simply pressing Confirm. If
 you're at least a little distance away from the target, Cless will
 run up close to attack and then run back to his starting position.
 × You'll do an uppercut if you press Confirm a second time while in
 mid-range as you're running in to attack.
 × You'll do a jump attack if you press Confirm a second time while at
 long range as you're running in to attack.
- Uppercuts and jump attacks are slower, as you need to run back and
forth, but they're also more powerful (+0,5 to the basic multiplier)
and usually safer due to the knockback.
- Each of the three attacks also have two variations: a slash and a
thrust. By default, you'll do a slash. Hold Up when pressing Confirm
to do a thrust attack instead. The regular thrust attack is slower than
a slash but has more horizontal range. The thrust uppercut is the least
useful of the six possible attacks, as it doesn't connect consistently.
The jump thrust should also probably be avoided, as it leaves you closer
to the enemy than the jump slash.
- If you press in the opposite direction when Cless is running back
after an attack, you can stop the run early, although he'll slide for
a while before actually coming to a halt. You can increase distance to
the enemy by sliding just before you reach the starting position.
- You can also trigger uppercuts and jumps by pressing any other input
while still holding down Confirm. I doubt this was intentional. Either
way, it's fairly useful, as it allows you to execute uppercuts at very
short distances. You'll also end up doing the occasional unintentional
jump or uppercut. Usually this happens when you move forward, press
Confirm and then release the d-pad while you're still holding Confirm.
- Cless can equip three types of weapons: swords, axes and polearms.
All of these have two separate ATP values; one for slash (Kiri), one
for thrust (Tsuki).
 × Swords often strike a balance between axes and polearms. Rapiers are
 the exception and have higher Tsuki than Kiri.
 × Polearms often have higher Tsuki than Kiri. They have the longest
 range of the three types.
 × Axes typically have higher Kiri than Tsuki. They have the shortest
 range of the three.
- You have four slots for waza: two short range (SR) and two long range
(LR). Most moves are limited to either SR or LR slots. Ougis are all
limited to LR.
- Energy-based attacks nearly always use the slash ATP value.
- The amount of knockback you cause varies depending on the attack, the
weapon and the enemy's weight.
- You can only block attacks from the front. The same goes for the enemy,
but it's rather difficult to get behind the enemy (without having another
enemy hitting you in the back).

Item: Life Bottle				\\\ Seirei no Mori ||
Boss: Boar (+ 3× Boar Child)
- Better get a few levels. Bugbears hit pretty hard, so using Majinken
isn't a bad idea. You should also try to attack at the same time as
Chester. That way, if you get blocked, you have a better chance of
getting away without taking damage.
- The G in G.Bee (and similar enemy names) stands for Giant.
- Choose Tairetsu in the menu to change your party's formation. Your
formation is reset to default whenever a character joins (even if it's
just an NPC) or you switch characters.
- Press L or R during battle to move Cless to the left or right end
of the formation.
- Blocks and criticals are a common occurrence both ways. Getting
blocked freezes your character for a little while.
- Note that Chester has no waza or critical hit roll.
- If you're hurt badly, you can rest at Cless' place.

[Boss]
- 200 HP, 8 ATP / 30 HP, 4 ATP. 26 xp, 63 G in total.
- The piglets are likely to run away, but Shuusouraizan can take them
out with a single hit. You might not have it yet, though, which is fine.

						\\\ Totis ||
- After the event here, Chester will leave the party.
- Whatever you do, do *NOT* pick up the weapon in Cless' house! You'll
lose all your swords and shields in Euclid.

Items: Life Bottle, Orange Gummy		\\\ Mountain Path ||
- Move the statue out of the way to access the path that leads to the
two chests. The encounter rate is really high there.
- Note that you can often briefly move inside a wall if you change
directions just as you enter a load zone. This has no impact on anything.
It's just something you can do.

Shop:						\\\ Euclid ||
 Longsword	   140 G	Round Shield	 300 G
 Saber		   200 G	Manto		  20 G
 Rapier		   180 G	Iron Boots	1010 G
 Self Bow S	    50 G	Jet Boots	 210 G
 Self Bow L	   200 G
 Rod		    10 G	Roll Pan	   5 G  10
 Chain Mail	   900 G	Cheese		  10 G  20
 Leather Helm	   600 G	Beef		  40 G  80
 Leather Glove	   150 G

- Towns can have multiple entrance points. For example, try entering
Euclid from the west side instead of the south.
- Pick up a Leather Glove. You can get 2 Chainmails in the second
dungeon, so I suggest you save the money and wait. I wouldn't recommend
the Leather Helm either.
- The Iron Boots will become something quite useful once upgraded. If
you can't afford it yet, no big deal.
- The Jet Boots allow you to run faster on the field. This increases
the encounter rate, however (and not just because you're accumulating
steps faster), so I would advise that you only do it in areas with no
encounters (unless you're building up).
- Eating food gives you HP regeneration on the field, but it's really
not that useful. Healing spells get the job done faster and cheaper.
- Unequip your sword and shield and sell them (unless you're planning
on leveling up some more).
- Anyway, once you're ready to proceed, go to the northwest building.
Talk to Olson and choose to rest.

Items: Cheese, Apple Gummy, Orange Gummy,	\\\ Suiro ||
 Wood Shield, Apple Gummy, Savory, Rapier, 1000 G
Items (nc): Earring (Key, Temp), Longsword
PC: Mint Lv2
Default (Mint): Cloak, Beret (Unique)
Boss: Spend Devil (+2× G.Slug)
- You'll wind up in the dungeons. Any swords and shields you may have
had will be gone. Check the hole in the wall, then wait for a while
until someone speaks to you. Check the hole again and you can proceed.
(you'll need to equip the sword you find)
- Place Mint near the back and set her AI to 'Inochi o daiji ni.'
- Note that you can examine things and talk to people from half a tile
away.

[Boss]
- Spend Devil: 250 HP, 18 ATP, 8 DFP | Giant Slug: 120 HP, 14 ATP, 8 DFP
- 82 Exp, 566 Gald
- Take out the slugs first with Majinken and/or Shuusouraizan.

Item: Pikurusu Stone				\\\ Morrison's House ||
- Get a Self Bow L from the traveling merchant if you didn't get one
earlier.
- There's a hidden chest outside.

Item (nc): Knight's Saber (Unique)		\\\ Totis Ruins ||
- You can now pick up the sword at Cless' place. It's Fire-elemental,
but that's not a problem early in the game.
- Head to the Catacombs east of Morrison's house.

						\\\ Chika Bochi ||
Items: Mix Gummy, Cheese, Apple Gummy, Sabre, Chain Mail, Sage,
 Mix Gummy, Creamy Cheese, Cheese, Orange Gummy, Panacea Bottle,
 Lace Ruby (Key), Reverse Doll, Rabbit Symbol, Creamy Cheese, Lavender
Items (nc): Protect Ring, Spectacles, Hourglass (Artifact), Chain Mail,
 Rune Bottle, Morrison no Hon (Key), Kowareta Yumi (Key, Temp)
Special: Majinhienkyaku
- At the entrance, Tristan will teach you your first Ougi. An Ougi is
a combination of two waza which you need to master (ie. use a 100 times)
before the Ougi can be used. Most Ougis are not that impressive and
not worth the TP cost. The biggest exception is one that we'll be
picking up right after this dungeon. All Ougis are limited to Long Range.
 × When you master a waza, you'll get a message about it at the end of
 a battle. It'll also tell you if this unlocks an ougi. If you run away
 from a battle where you mastered a waza, nothing special happens. The
 message(s) will be displayed at the end of the next battle you finish.
- Keep your eye out for opportunities to hit multiple enemies with
Shuusouraizan.
- Using the Spectacles shows the enemy's current/max HP, TP and any
possible elemental weaknesses (with the exception of Void).
- There are only a limited number of Hourglasses in the game (hence
the Artifact tag). Using one will freeze enemies for 5 seconds (hitting
them will still push them back). Upgrading it creates a Chronoglass,
which freezes enemies for 10 seconds.
- One of the coffins will give you your first Rune Bottle. These are
used to upgrade items and ID unidentified equipment. It'll be a while
before you can buy them, and they're pretty expensive, so use them wisely.
A pretty safe bet at this point would be to use it on Iron Boots to create
the Persia Boots (decreases damage by 30%). You can then RB it further
to create the Nightmare Boots (increases movement speed by 50%), another
great accessory.
- One of the hallways has a row of statues. Examine one of them and two
chests (Sage, Mix Gummy) will appear in the previous area.
- Don't forget to RB the stat boost herbs before using them. When boosting
HP or MP, you should also equip one of the HP/MP boosting accessories
(Black Onyx / Moon Crystal), as this will indeed affect the boost, giving
you 30% more. The effect from the accessory doesn't stack, so +30% is
the most you can get.
- There's a big statue near the first save point. Beat it up, then move
it on the switch.
 × Golems have high evade. Even Chester might get blocked. Shuusouraizan
 works best. The Golems give you your first Holy Bottles. I like to keep
 these at the beginning of the second page of the inventory (just like
 Rune Bottles).
- Once you have the Lace Ruby, you can go through the sealed door near
the beginning.
- You'll likely get some Liqueur Bottles here. You can use them during
battle to make a character immune to status ailments, but this will also
lower ATP by 20%.
- You'll fight two Golems in the room with the second save point, but
I wouldn't call it a boss.
- Once you proceed past the second save point, you will travel to the
past and won't be able to explore the previous areas again. Chester
will go MIA for quite some time.


			----- The Past -----

						\\\ Seirei no Mori ||
Items: Orange Gummy, Sage, Hourglass (Artifact), Reverse Doll

Items: Orange Gummy, Panacea Bottle		\\\ Belladam [Beruadamu] ||
Item (nc): Food Sack M (Key)
Special: Majinsouhazan
Shop:
 Fine Saber		 700 G		Manto		 20 G
 Verdan			 700 G		Leather Manto	100 G
 Battle Axe		 700 G		Spectacles	 10 G
 Ring Mail		1200 G		Jet Boots	210 G
 Iron Sallet		 840 G
 Amber Cloak		 610 G

- After the event, talk to the old lady to get the M-sized Food Sack.
- Walk through the wall in the weapon shop and talk to the kid while
behind the counter to obtain Majin Souhazan. This is one of the best
Ougis in the game. You probably can't use it yet, as it requires Kogahazan
(Lv15), but once you learn it, master it as soon as possible.
- Do *not* buy any new equipment here! Head straight to Venetsia at the
north end of the continent.

						\\\ Minato (Belladam) ||
Items: Spectacles, Life Bottle, Steak, Mysti Symbol, Elixir
- This is the harbor NE of Belladam.
- If a crab blocks your way, leave and re-enter. The seagulls will
eventually fly off, so you don't have to worry about them.
- The Mysti(cal) Symbol reduces casting time by 50%.
- You can also pick up 1000 G at Euclid, so get that on your way, too.

Item: Protect Ring				\\\ Venetsia ||
Special: Shuusousenretsuha - 3000 G
Shop:
 Walloon Sword		1600 G		Steak		180 G  260
 Corsesca		2400 G		Uirou		100 G  150
 Crescent Axe		1800 G		Seafood		 60 G  300
 Gem Rod		 600 G
 Splint Mail		1900 G
 Armet Helm		1320 G
 Iron Glove		 600 G
 Kite Shield		 600 G
 Feet Shield		1150 G
 Amber Cloak		 610 G
 Ankh Beret		 800 G

- Corsesca, Splint Mail, Armet Helm, Feet Shield, Ankh Beret = 7570 G
 × You can get a free Amber Cloak in the next dungeon.
 × You can get a free Armet Helm in the dungeon after the next dungeon,
 but you should get it now. It'll be the only helmet Cless will use in
 this time period. Same goes for the Feet Shield.
 × The Iron Glove isn't really necessary. It's only 1 point increase,
 but then again, 600 G isn't exactly hard to get now.
- You can also buy an Ougi from the warrior in the armor shop for 3000
Gald, but it can wait. In fact, I recommend you wait until very late
in the game before you buy any Ougis. Few of them are worth using, so
you're basically just throwing your money away - money that you could
be using on something like Paralyze Checks.
- Go to the southern building and talk to the NPC who looks like the
old man you met at Belladam. You'll need to do this in order to learn
a spell later.

Shop:						\\\ Harmel ||
 Tsuruhashi		150 G
 Rope			100 G
- Buy a Tsuruhashi and a Rope.

						\\\ Euclid ||
Items: Mix Gummy, Rune Bottle, 1000 G, Charm Bottle
PC: Klarth Lv9
Default (Klarth): Necronomicon (Unique), Amber Cloak, Ankh Beret, Manto
Shop:
 Iron Boots		1010 G
 Rabbit Symbol		 200 G
 Talisman		2000 G
 Ringo			   1 G  60

- Klarth will join your party here.
- As I already mentioned the Iron Boots can be upgraded to Persia Boots
(decreases damage by 30%), which in turn can be RB'd into Nightmare
Boots (increase movement speed by 50%).
- You can easily use the apples sold here to fill your food sack for a
very low price.
- The following side-quest has no real reward, so feel free to pass up
on it if you don't feel like doing it.
- Attempt to talk to the red-haired girl near the inn to initiate your
first side-quest. As you walk away, Mint will talk to you. Approach her
again. Her name is Nancy and she wants to hook up with the guy working
at the weapon shop (Elwyn).
 × Talk to Elwyn
 × Talk to Nancy
 × Talk to Elwyn
 × Talk to Nancy

						\\\ Harmel ||
 × Talk to Nancy at the inn.
  × If Klarth hasn't joined yet, you can't progress the quest further
  than this.
  × If Harmel is no longer there, you can skip this one.

						\\\ Venetsia ||
 × Talk to Nancy at the inn and choose 'yes.'
 × Talk to Elwyn in the northwest building.
 × Talk to Nancy.
 × Talk to Nancy at the fountain.
 × Leave town and come back. Go witness the fight between Elwyn and
his father.
 × Talk to Elwyn near the fountain, choose 'yes.' That's all for now.

						\\\ Lone Valley ||
Items: Thief's Manto, Blue Ribbon, Apple Gummy, Spectacles,
 Kite Shield, Amber Cloak, Talisman, Rune Bottle, Charm Bottle
Items (nc): Opal (Unique), Element Orb (Key)
Lost & Found: Rune Bottle (Sylph)
Special: Sylph
- The NPC in the house will give you the Opal, your first contract ring.
Only Klarth can equip these. This one will boost his DFP by 15. This
makes him pretty resilient to physical hits, so you may want to consider
using him as a tank in some situations (eg. if you're using Shuusou-
raizan a lot).
- You can rest for free in the house.
- You'll need the Tsuruhashi and Rope here (you'll use the rope near
the second save point).
- You'll fight two groups of Sylphs here (100 (a) / 150 HP (b,c), A:T
(b,c)). I suggest you use the Rune Bottles you win to make Persia Boots.
- Pretty good xp inside the cave.
- Do *not* attempt to fight the Hell Masters. (Summon Demon: 508)
- Moving in the Shouki deals 1,5% (1/64) damage constantly. You can
avoid it by taking babysteps, but it's not really necessary.
- Once you've pushed all three boulders into the puddles, head to the
end of the cliff to obtain your first summon spell, Sylph.
- I never let Klarth cast his spells freely (outside of a couple of
bosses).
- The enemies will be gone afterwards.

						\\\ Seirei no Mori ||
- Check on the tree for a scene.

						\\\ Harmel Ruins ||
- Talk to the girl, and she'll join as an NPC.

						\\\ Venetsia ||
- Go to the mayor's house and talk to the woman standing in front of
the fireplace (facing another NPC). After that, go talk the captain
of the left ship at the docks and pay him to take you to the West
Island (1600 G).

						\\\ Nishi no Kotou ||
Items: Mix Gummy, Sukebehon -ID, Spectacles, Savory, Apple Gummy,
 Bellbane, Savory, Apple Gummy, Elixir, 430 G, Reverse Doll, Corsesca,
 Armet Helm, Halberd, Vegetable, Liber Ivonis -ID (Artifact)
Items (nc): Demitel no Kagi (Key), Aquamarine (Unique), Ruby (Unique)
Lost & Found: Rune Bottle (Lility), Yellow Kings -ID (Demitel)
PC: Arche Lv12
Default (Arche): Broom, Cloak, Ribbon, Manto, Talisman
Boss: Demitel (+ 2× Golem, 2× Lility)
- A guy in the ship will sell you basic supplies.
- I'd like to remind you to spend your Rune Bottles wisely.
- In the western room, check the closet behind the hidden chest to find
the key.
- Beat up the tree, then turn the crystals.

[Boss]
- 2700 HP, 69 ATP, 52 DFP, I:E. Lility: 600 HP. 2414 xp, 6440 G in total.
- The Hell Master type enemies can hit you twice with their normal
attack, the second hit being an energy-based flame. Hell Gem has +4 ATP.
Summon Demon will hit you for 800 pod (without Persia Boots). You can
easily interrupt it as long as you can stay alive, which may be difficult.
- Take out the Lilities as quickly as possible with Majin Souhazan or
Akisazame. They can cast some spells that do 200-250 pod, but they have
pretty limited TP. Your main concern is their normal attack that has an
energy-based added effect (220 base damage). They can spam it and hit
multiple characters if they're close enough. They can also teleport.
- Lv14 is recommended, so you'll have access to Heal.

- In order to get the remaining three items, you'll have to sail here
again after the events.
- Arche starts with two spells: Fireball and Ice Needle. She does not
learn new spells from leveling up.
 × The Fireball spell launches two fireballs, but the second one is the
 one that actually deals damage. The first one is purely cosmetic.
 × Fireball is the one spell I let Arche cast freely (switching to Ice
 Needle or Lightning if resisted).
- Arche floats on her broom during battle. As a result, a number of
enemies won't be able to hit her. Then again, she might not be able to
hit them either if they're small enough.
- It's possible to get Gnome right away, but because of their high DFP,
this is not a good idea.

Special: Ice Tornado, Grave			\\\ Euclid ||
- Check some of the bookshelves at Klarth's place to pick up two new spells.
- Grave won't hit targets that aren't on the ground. Even hopping enemies
will avoid it most of the time. The AI is of course not smart enough to
tell when it has no chance of hitting.

Special: Eruption				\\\ Belladam ||
- Talk to Lenios and he should teach you a new spell. If he doesn't,
you haven't talked to his twin brother at Venetsia yet.

Special: Lightning - 200 G, Storm - 1000 G	\\\ Venetsia ||
- Pick up two more spells from the woman living next to the fountain.
- Now, as I already mentioned, there are three more items at Demitel's
place. Get those before proceeding.
- Take the other ship to get to Alvanista (800 G).

Lost & Found: Fame Face -ID (Meyer)		\\\ Ship ||
Boss: Meyer

[Boss]
- 2400 HP, 30 ATP, 40 DFP, 450 xp, 4000 G
- Cless solo. You don't actually have to win this one.
- Enemies of his type are fairly dangerous, as they have two attacks that
use double ATP. You can interrupt both of them by attacking (the jump
attack requires a swing). You can also avoid them by backing away, but
try not to get cornered.

- If the crab is blocking your path to the chest and doesn't look like
it's coming out of the way, leave the harbor to reset its location.
- A guy in the guild will sell you an ougi, but like I said, you should
wait until much later in the game before getting these.
- You can challenge a kid to a street race on the east side. Below you
can see the prizes you can choose from. You can choose the same prize
multiple times, but you can only win three times. I recommend the Cat's Eye.
 1. Cat's Eye
 2. Juicy Beef
 3. Longsword -ID
 4. Fame Face -ID
 × The Cat's Eye is one of several items that sells for different amounts
 depending on the location and time period. The most you can get now is
 39k at Midgards. The most you can get in this time period is 70k, but
 later in the game you can get as much as 300k.
- You're supposed to rest at the inn to trigger the next event, but I
suggest you pay a quick visit to Midgards first. Make sure you've got a
fair amount of cash to bring along. If you need more money, I recommend
the Ymir region south of Alvanista (but not the forests).

- South of Alvanista is a harbor with a ship that'll take you to
Freyland (320 G).

- Use a Rune Bottle on a Charm Bottle to create a Miracle Charm. Using
it will give you a 50% discount but only for one shopping session. Use
it to cut the price of the armor in half.

Lost & Found: Lavender / Bellbane (Ares), Black Onyx (Jamir)
Special: Tractor Beam - 4000 G, Thunder Blade - 12 000 G
Boss: Jamir (+2× Ares)

[Boss]                               FWTIELV
- 3400 HP, 100 TP, 75 ATP, 52 DFP    WAIWI
- Ares: 2500 HP, 45 ATP, 0 DFP       WA
- 3300 xp, 10 528 G in total
- Jamir can cast Ice Wall, Tractor Beam and Thunder Blade. He(/she?) will
also shield itself to become invincible, but can't move or attack while
doing so. However, coming in contact with him will result in damage.
- I suggest using Kogahazan, Storm and Sylph. Give Klarth the Pikurusu
Stone to make him immune to Tractor Beam (it'll still interrupt him,
though).

- You can buy two new spells from a woman in the research lab.
 × Just like Grave, Tractor Beam won't affect targets that aren't on
 the ground.
- In the lab, talk to the NPC with green hair and a blue cape walking
around. This will allow you to travel to Shinshokudou from Venetsia.
- There's an old man here who can change Cless's title. These won't
affect his abilities in any way, though. There are probably only two
you've unlocked at this point (Kenshi, Jukuren Kenshi).
- The guy on the red matt will give you a Mental Ring if you beat him
in his little game. Basically, you've won if there are 2 to 4 left
on your turn (you choose a figure that leaves it to 1).
 × The Mental Ring regenerates 1 TP every 4,3 seconds (won't stack).
 A good choice for Arche so she can cast Fireball / Ice Needle pretty
 much as much as she wants.
- Pick up the Kyokashou at the guild (downstairs from the item shop).
You'll need it in order to access the Moria Gallery. You could go
explore it right away, but before you can fight the boss, you'll need
to get three more summons (Undine, Ifrit, Gnome). You can get these in
any given order. You could have gotten Gnome after getting the Ruby,
and you could have already explored Nessa no Doukutsu, but you wouldn't
have been able to fight Ifrit (aka Efreet) since you didn't have the
right contract ring.
- Talk to Nancy and Elwyn at the other item shop (we're almost done
with this).
- If you're planning on running away from a lot of battles, you may
want to invest in a White Mist, then RB it into a Magic Mist.
- Take the ship on the right at the harbor (400 G, one-way only).

Item: Stone Wall (spell)			\\\ Seirei no Doukutsu ||
Special: Gnome
Boss: Gnome
- This is the cave east of Balladam, in case you forgot.
- The password for the door is 3124 (Kikurin).
- The first Clay Idol you encounter will not attack you. You're supposed
to lead him back to his friends while preferably avoiding the ones that
attack you. If you end up fighting them, just run away. Tractor Beam can
kill them, but it's not worth the effort. Anyway, keep the guy close when
moving to another area. Otherwise, you'll lose him.

[Boss]
- 3400 HP, 150 TP, 50 ATP, 100 DFP, A:E, 9200 xp, 13 003 G, Sukebehon -ID
- If you already have the equipment from Midgards, the damage you
receive will be quite low. They *will* spend most of the battle
invulnerable, though, but don't waste your Chronoglasses.

						\\\ Venetsia ||
- Go talk to Elwyn's father (choose yes).
- Talk to the captain of the other ship. The option to go to the
north island should now be available (800 G). If not, you haven't
talked to the right NPC at Alvanista castle yet (in the lab).

						\\\ Shinshokudou ||
Items: Orange Gummy, Spectacles, Rune Bottle, Aqua Manto, Seafood, Seafood
Lost & Found: Liber Ivonis -ID (Undine)
Special: Undine
Boss: Undine (+ G.Red Cell, Squid)
- Good Exp. here. The random encounters will be gone once you defeat
the boss.
- The boss will appear in the room with the save point when you turn
the water on but only after you've flipped two switches to make a hole
appear on the ground.

[Boss]                                FWTIELV
- 6450 HP, 300 TP, 55 ATP, 100 DFP    WA RI
- 10 470 xp, 8885 G
- If she starts with Delay, you may want to reset. Aside from that,
she'll use Ice Wall (400 pod) and Heal (800 HP).
- Your main concern is the sword wave attack that hits all your characters
for 400-600 pod (173 ATP). Her normal attack is also pretty dangerous.
The damage may be low, but because of her incredibly high critical hit
rate, she can end up stun-locking you.
- If you haven't been leveling up much, you really won't stand a chance.
You should at least get to Lv23, so that you'll have Hououtenku and Nurse.

						\\\ Alvanista ||
- Go to the house on the east side. Nancy, Elwyn and Elwyn's father
should be there (choose yes). And that's it.
- Buy a Paraly Check or two if you can afford it.

Special: Ifrit
Boss: Ifrit
- This is the cave east of Olive.
- You need to be careful with the Ogres, as they can paralyze you.
Undine works great.
 × The pincer encounter with two Ogres and two Azars could easily result
 in a game over. If you just can't manage it, use Holy Bottles and try
 to complete the dungeon without ever running into it. Don't forget that
 running increases the encounter rate.
- Equip the Sorcerer Ring so you can hit the switches.

[Boss]
- 5500 HP, 88 ATP, 72 DFP, W:W, A:F, 1000 xp, 8000 G, Flare Manto
- Aside from his normal physical attack, he can launch numerous energy-
based fireballs at you (90 base damage).
- Don't forget that most non-elemental, energy-based attacks use the
weapon's element. That said, try using Shugohoujin with Fameface here
(if you have them).

Boss: Maxwell
- Once you have the four summons, it's time head to Moria (southeast
from Alvanista). If the guard doesn't let you enter, you'll need to
get the pass at the adventurer's guild in Alvanista.
- The save points are on B4, B7 and B10.
- B4: There's a room with two switches on the ground and an NPC wandering
around. If she steps on one switch while you're standing on the other,
a chest with a Rune Bottle will appear.
- B4: Step on the directional switches in this order:
Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right.
- B4: Don't miss the switch on the wall near the first save point. It
opens up a short cut back to the surface.
- There are Ogres between B5 and B7.
- The spikes will damage you for 1,5% HP.
- B7: You should definitely hang on to the Yellow Cake. You can sell it
for 240k later in the game.
- B8: You'll find another area with lots of spikes. The switch at the
beginning turns the levitation off panel in the previous area into a
levitation on panel.

 B1: Orange Gummy
 B2: Lavender, Protect Ring, Steak, 2000 G
 B3: -
 B4: Rune Bottle
 B5: -
 B6: Lemon Gummy
 B7: Lemon Gummy, Yellow Cake, Mysti Broom
 B8: Yellow Cake, Rune Bottle, Apple Gummy
 B9: The rest

- The solution to the last puzzle is:
 North: Ifrit
 East: Sylph
 South: Gnome
 West: Undine

[Boss]                                FWTIELV
- 7500 HP, 400 TP, 90 ATP, 100 DFP    RRRRI
- 12 000 xp, 25 005 G
- Spells can interrupt his Molecular Attack. If you can time it just
right, you can use that to get him in the corner for some Shugohoujin
ownage. Otherwise, go with Kogahazan and Souhazan. Either way, you
should have your mages as far away as possible.
- It's actually possible to get him stuck inside your characters somehow,
in which case Klarth will slowly but surely maim him to death. I think
it works something like this: When he does his short charge attack, he
has to end up "inside" Klarth, and at that point you have to move so
they'll end up off-screen and stay off-screen. Something like that.

- Maxwell does 8 hits and each hit can vary greatly in damage (between
140 - 2300).

Item (nc): Shoukaijou (Key)			\\\ Alvanista ||
- Go talk to Runeglom (the guy with red hair in the research lab).
After that, head to Edward's home west of Alvanista (the place where
you hear the first overworld theme). After talking with the woman,
head to Olive.

						\\\ Olive ||
- A little dialog will take place. After that, you need go to the three
oasis...es, oases? Whatever. Talk to the NPCs in each of them. Once you
talk to the last one, you'll teleport back to Olive.
- Next, you need to get 5 Basilisk Urokos, then talk to the innkeeper.
Maybe you already have them, but if you don't, head out and get them.
You should be able to take down the Basilisk now (use Shinkuuhazan,
Maxwell, Undine). Don't bother getting more than 5, though, as you'll
lose all of them. If you already had more than that, it doesn't really
matter. They don't sell for much and it's pretty easy to get more of them.
 × The desert has two map sections: the smaller, eastern one and the
 larger, western one. Basilisk is found in the western one. The border
 between the two map sections is a little southeast of Olive. If you're
 not encountering any Harpies, you're in the wrong map section.
 × The Basilisk may indeed drop a Stone Check, but the odds are fairly
 low. Accordingly, I wouldn't recommend grinding for one, but, hey, it's
 your call.
- Anyway, after meeting Edward, we're done here.

Item (nc): Emblem (Key)				\\\ Alvanista ||
- Go talk to Runeglom, rest at the inn, then talk to Runeglom again.
Arche will leave the party and won't come back until after the next
dungeon.

						\\\ Ymir no Mori ||
Items: Mix Gummy, Sage, Lavender, Lavender, Lavender
- Lizardmen can petrify you and Drakes can paralyze you. As if that
wasn't bad enough, the enemies in this family are very likely to
interrupt your attacks with their 'duck stab' (though you can avoid
that by using Kogahazan at point blank range, since it moves you
forward a little, placing you outside of the area of effect). You
*could* have Klarth take point, feed him Liqueur Bottles and then take
out the Lizardmen with Hououtenku, but it's just easier to use Holy
Bottles and run away.
 × The four Lizardman pincer encounter will likely result in a game over
- There are no items in the first area. The second area has a save
point. Try to get the two items from the east, then proceed west. The
elven village is just ahead.

						\\\ Elf no Shuuraku ||
- As previously mentioned, you can sell Cat's Eyes here for 70k, but
I do recommend you wait until later in the game, so you can sell them
for 300k instead.
- Restock on supplies, then head north.

- Lower case letters mean no items. A few of the containers are partially
or even completely hidden from view.
- Keep popping those Holy Bottles. Fortunately, you can't get the
pincer encounter here.
- The path leading to your destination (F2) is easy to recognize.
You'll get two new contract rings there.
- When you return to the village, Arche will rejoin the party, but
you won't be allowed into the village anymore (hence denying access
to Treant's Forest). You can get there again in the future, but any
items you may have missed will be gone.

Lost & Found: Longsword -ID / Slayer Sword -ID (Sarven),
 Pikurusu Stone / Resist Ring (Dark Mage), Rune Bottle (Corpse)
Special: Ray, Luna
- This is the tower south of Midgards (aka Zodiac Tower).
- The Slayer Sword has good ATP but is Earth-elemental.
- Do note that if you equip the Pikurusu Stone, you won't be able to
unequip it if you end up with 15 of them.
- Also, make sure to use your Rune Bottles before you hit 15.
- You'll likely learn Cure (Lv38) around this time. It'll start off
healing ab. 4000 HP, which is a lot more than you need (at least on
setting 3). You should disable it and stick to Heal for a little while
longer.
- You should also disable Dispel so Mint doesn't waste TP healing Bleed.
- In order to advance to the next floor, you need to have the right
tune playing (which you can change by examining the statues).
 2. Default (Dark Cave)
 3. Arche (south)
 4. Mystic Forest (west)
 5. Dark Cave (south)
 6. Open Fire (east)
- At the top, you'll obtain Ray and Luna. Ray is the only Light-elemental
spell Arche will learn.

						\\\ Midgards ||
- There will be a bunch of scenes in the castle. When Klarth leaves
the party, go rest at the inn, then return to the conference room (Klarth
rejoins right away).

Lost & Found: Poison Check (Ishrant)		\\\ Valhalla Heigen ||

- Your objective is to navigate through the mazy plains and beat the boss.
There are no random encounters here. You can see the enemies, and when
they get too close, you'll be drawn into a battle.
- One of the soldiers can give you a full stock of the following four
items: Apple Gummy, Panacea Bottle, Life Bottle, Roll Pan.
- Gaze Hounds can paralyze you.

Special: Indignation

- After seeing the king, I recommend equipping Cless with Persia Boots
and a Holy Symbol. and Arche with a Prince55 Cape and a Holy Symbol.
- You'll be fighting 5 battles with only Cless and Arche. Cless is
equipped with the Gungnir and riding Pegasus. You can't use any waza.
Cless will have trouble hitting some of the enemies, so Arche will see
some melee action here too.

[Boss]
- 5000 HP, 100 TP, 54 ATP, 100 DFP

- Try to take out Ishrant with Ray without killing the Charon.

Special: Shuusousenkuuha - 50 000 G		\\\ Valhalla Heigen ||
- You'll find this guy in H2 (ie. go north from the first area, then
east when the path splits, then north when you reach the large area).

Lost & Found: Rune Bottle (Lility)		\\\ Dhaos Region ||
- You'll occasionally run into Lilities in the non-snow covered areas.
If you're having too much trouble with the enemies inside the castle,
then this is also a good place to level up.

Boss: Dhaos (+ 2× Evil Lords)

- Red Ropers can paralyze you. Fire Storm takes them out handily (go
grab that first thing by going east, but then go back and check the
western areas). In the pincer encounter, use Fire Storm on the three
on the right and Hououtenku on the two on the left.
- Dragon Knights are pretty annoying, but at least they can't inflict
any ailments. Luna takes them out in a single hit and Ray leaves them
badly wounded. When using physicals, I recommend Kogahazan at point
blank range and uppercuts when they're running at you.
- Druids have 80 TP and can cast Cure (3700 HP) and Barrier. They're
also surprisingly proficient at melee combat thanks to how fast their
normal attack is. Combine that with a high evade and Thunder and Light
absorption and they become pretty troublesome to deal with. Hit them
with Silence to prevent them from healing.
- Charons cast Thunder Blade (500 pod) and like to teleport around like
all members of its family. The only element they don't absorb is Void.
- Iron Golems can take a while to beat down. They've got 7150 HP, a
solid Evade, about 50% critical hit rate and two special attacks that
do 1,5x damage and have heavy knockback. The fact that they have 0 DFP
is not much of consolation. If they get you pinned down, you need to
run away. The easiest way to take them out is with two Lunas and one
Ray. Consider throwing a Pico Hammer at the nearest one to slow them
down. You need to attack at the same or the hammer is likely to miss.
- You should *probably* use the Moon Falx here, although it's not that
easy to say. Either way, you'll be taking out most enemies with magic.
With a Moon Falx, you wouldn't have to rely on Luna/Ray quite as much,
but you'd have to use Hououtenku / Ifrit / Maxwell / Fire Storm on
Druids. Then again, you might want to use those even without a Moon
Falx, given how pesky they are at close range. Charons will also become
an issue. They come in two battles. One of them only has one, so you
can just use Maxwell. The other one is a five Charon pincer, and you
should just run away from that one.
- The Orange Gummies dropped by the Red Ropers will help you keep your
TP up. Better have some Pine Gummies on hand too, though, just in case.

- Examine the flowers on the drawer in one of the rooms near the beginning
to find Savory and Sage.
- Examine the weapon racks for some weapons.
- Examine the gargoyle statue in one of the hallways to find a Mysti Symbol.
- One of the early puzzles involves directional switches. Step on the
switches in this order: Up, down, right, left, down, up. If you mess up,
check the sign to reset.
- The next puzzle has you stepping on 8 switches in succession together
with Arche. You have to step on a switch *after* Arche has stepped on
the corresponding one on the other side.
- Eventually, you'll have to leave one of your characters on a switch
in order to advance. In one of the areas beyond, you'll find the Fushigi
na Tekagami (guarded by an Evil Lord). This item allows you to teleport
to new areas through some of the mirrors you saw earlier (you'll fight
the Evil Lord again when doing so).
- Distortion is Arche's first Instant Death spell. The hit rate is low,
however, so it's hardly worth using.
- The Mental Ring is in the same room as the Magical Broom and Piyohan,
but there's something you need to examine first before it appears.
- Once you have the Ougon no Kagi, leave Arche on the switch and then
get to the other side of the room with the hole on the floor (where
the chest is), and she'll use her broom to fly up.
- Dhaos awaits north of the second save point.

- Evil Lord: 10 500 HP, 108 ATP, 12 DFP   WRR IWW
- 25 000 xp, 25 000 G, Emerald Ring
- His trademark special moves are Dhaos Laser (1200 base) and Dhaos
Corridor (2320 base)(maybe they meant 'Collider?').
- He can cast God Breath (2200) and Fire Storm (2100).
- He'll regenerate all physical damage above 75% HP and 50% physical
damage between 50-75% HP.
- Don't attack the Evil Lords. Keep casting Indignation on Dhaos and
you can have him dead without him attacking you even once.

- If you win, some events will take place, and you'll end up west of
Alvanista. Go rest at an inn somewhere, and one more scene should take
place.

						\\\ Midgards ||
- Talk to the woman standing by the tree in the northern part of town
(if you don't, you can't trigger the scenes in the White Forest).

						\\\ Shirakaba no Mori ||
Items (nc): Touchuukasou, Touchuukasou, Touchuukasou, Touchuukasou,
 Touchuukasou, Touchuukasou, Unicorn Horn (Unique)
- You can get here by taking the northwest exit in Valhalla Plains.
- If you want Arche to participate in the battle against the three
Evil Lords, you need to find her before going to Mint.
- You'll warp to Seirei no Mori afterwards.
- You're about to leave this time period with no way of returning.
It's not possible to permanently miss any ougis or spells, but if
you got everything up to this point, Cless would have 9 Ougis, and
Arche should have 15 spells.

 Composite Bow		  3000 G
 Mythril Mesh		30 000 G
 Cross Helm		  5000 G
 Holy Cloak		56 000 G

- Damascus Sword, Composite Bow = 25 700 G
 × There's some room for choice, but I'd say the Damascus Sword is pretty
 solid. You'll be getting new ones after the next dungeon anyway.
- You can now change characters through Tairetsu -> Irekae.
- This is where I switch Klarth with Chester (even though he's about
300 000 xp behind). If you decide to use him, you'll need to level him
up. The Mountain Path is a good choice. Get him to at least Lv40.
 × Mint won't use Cure on Chester until his max HP is above 3200 (Heal
 not until he's above 800, Resurrection not until he's above 2000).
- You can now buy Rune Bottles in almost any town.
- A woman here will sell you Food Sack L.
- A man in the doujou will sell you a new Ougi.

 Self Bow S -ID / Aqua Spread -ID (Living Knight)
 Resist Ring / Basilisk Uroko (Phantomist), Emerald Ring (Volt)
Special: Volt
Boss: Volt (+ 3× Alraune)
- You'll find this cave south of Miguel.
- Switch to the Dragon Tooth once you get one. It's safe to use it here
(up until the boss).
- The Aqua Spread is somewhat rare, but it would be great if you could
score one, as it shoots two arrows at a time. It'd be worth using here
even though the enemies are resistant to Water. You can try and get it
from another enemy later or you can just buy it. If you're not using
Chester, then never mind.
- You'll find your first Ring Shield very close to the beginning. This
is the only shield that characters other than Cless can equip (and the
only one Cless can't use).
- There's a switch you need to step on that can only be reached by going
through the wall.
- There's another wall you can walk through later. This is a part where
you need the Jet Boots in order to make it through the door in time
(there's also an invisible wall and a teleporter that takes you back
to the beginning of the dungeon). When you get to the western part of
this area, flip the switch to make the charge last longer. The next
area has a save point and another exit panel. The boss comes after that.

[Boss]                                   FWTIELV
- 28 000 HP, 400 TP, 170 ATP, 240 DFP    RRARIA
- Alraune: 2200 HP, 133 ATP, 4 DFP
- 23 000 xp, 32 767 G in total
- He mostly just uses Thunder Blade (1000 pod).
- His chain lightning attack has 500 base damage and ignores Persia
Boots (highly unusual; possibly an oversight).

- Don't forget that Cless can't equip the Fairy Ring, so don't RB all
your Emerald Rings.
- The Star Cloak makes you immune to all status ailments, including
Instant Death and Pico stun. It even prevents positive effects, like
ATP Up and DFP Up, but that's not a big deal.

Item (nc): Wing Pack (Key)			\\\ Euclid ||
- Return to the lab and you'll obtain the Rea Birds.

 holding your direction.

						\\\ Shirakaba no Mori ||

- Another batch of Touchuukasou. You can sell these at Alvanista for
30k each.

 Holy Sword -ID		50 000 G
 Destroyer		60 000 G
 Cranequin		  7000 G
 Holy Staff		  6000 G

- Talk to the blond NPC at the south entrance. If you don't, you can't
get Asuka.
- Go to the castle for a scene. Your next two official destinations are
the Honoo no Tou (Fire Tower) near Olive and the Koori no Doukutsu (Ice
Cave) in Freezekill. You'll want to get some new gear from various
locations first, though. There are also some hidden spells and summons,
although you probably won't be using them much.
- Pick up a Pole Axe, a Cranequin and maybe a Stone Check (although you
can easily get those from Mandrakes).
- The Destroyer is powerful, but it drains 1 TP from Cless with each
normal attack and 4 TP for waza.
- The new racing prizes:
 1. Supefura (S-Flag / Special Flag)
 2. Silver Mattock
 3. Flare Spread -ID
 4. Self Bow S -ID

					Blue Ribbon		 840 G

- I would recommend picking up the Flare Baselard. It'll come in handy
when fighting enemies weak to Fire.
- There's also a guy outside selling eggs for 80 Gald each. Their resale
value is actually a bit higher than that...
- You can sell your Yellow Cake here for 240k.

Item: (Firestorm) (spell)			\\\ Nessa no Doukutsu ||
Lost & Found: Self Bow S -ID / Flare Spread -ID (Flame Ji)
- No new items here, but you should definitely get a Flare Spread.
Watch out for Explode, though (2500 pod).

Special: Shishisenkuuha - 33 000 G		\\\ Freezekill ||
Shop: Laser Blade - 200 010 G
- No need to fork out 200k for the Laser Blade. You can easily get one
(or two) from an enemy in Thor.

Item (nc): Derris Emblem			\\\ Ary ||
Special: Hououtenkuuha - 50 000 G

 Longsword -ID		    150 G
 Ice Coffin -ID		100 000 G
 Self Bow S -ID		     50 G
 Aqua Spread -ID	100 000 G

- Talk to the soldier at the bar to obtain a Derris Emblem.
- Talk to the woman opposite the soldier (might be hard to see because
of the plant). This is needed in order to gain access to the ninja
village.

Lost & Found: Charm Bottle (Ninja)		\\\ Ary Region ||
- The ninja-type enemies can be fairly dangerous. They have a special
attack that uses double ATP and like to spam you with shurikens from
a distance. These ones have low HP, though, so you can take them out
easily with Laser Blade / Ray. Other ninja enemies will provide a greater
challenge, as they can use log decoys to avoid death (staying at 1 HP)
and also attack you at the same time.
- The Shadow Flowers pose a very serious threat. They have an instant
death attack that targets all your characters at once. Because of that,
you probably don't want to hang out here (unless you want a couple of
Charm Bottles).

Special: Shadow (summon)			\\\ Yami no Doukutsu ||
- If you've got the Amethyst, you can go pick up Shadow in the cave
east of Ary. Note that Shadow is actually Light-elemental.

Item: Death Cloud (spell)			\\\ Nishi no Kotou ||
- This is the place where you fought Demitel in case you forgot. It's
not on the map, but I'm sure you can find it.

Special: Asuka (summon)				\\\ Thor ||
Lost & Found: Laser Blade (3SH)
- Get to the Mother Computer Room and choose 3 to get Asuka. If the
option isn't there, you haven't talked to the right NPC at Alvanista yet.
- The Laser Blade should come in handy.

						\\\ Shinshokudou ||
Items: (Distortion) (spell), Sapphire (Unique), Ice Wall (spell)
Lost & Found: Self Bow S -ID / Aqua Spread -ID (Kraken)
- The Laser Blade + Flare Spread combo gets the job done here.

- Before heading to Ymir, you should go to the Honoo no Tou and get four
Koori no Omamoris, so you don't have to worry about Shaft's Explode (2500
pod). Just don't get killed in the super-heated areas while you're there.

						\\\ Ymir no Mori ||
Lost & Found: Paraly Check / Stone Check (Mandrake)
- Mandrakes can petrify you, but the Flare Spread + Valkyrie combo allows
you to take them down easily from a distance.
- This is a pretty good place to level up in spite of the little space
you have to move in. I recommend hitting Lv70.

						\\\ Elf no Shuuraku ||
Items (nc): Star Broom (Artifact), Elven Bow (Unique)
Shop:
 Deck Brush		  1980 G	Elven Manto		9560 G
 Kuroi Fuku		10 000 G
- Talk to the guy at the armory and he'll offer to fix the Kowareta Yumi
for 20 000 G. You can pick it up after spending the night at the inn.
The woman at the inn will also give you the Star Broom. You'll also want
to pick up a Kuroi Fuku for Arche, although she should probably switch
to a Star Cloak after the next two dungeons.
- If you still actually need money, you can sell Cat's Eyes here for 300k.

Item (nc): Muramasa (Unique)			\\\ Treant no Mori ||
- Right, so, assuming you've heard about the ninja village (such as from
the NPC at the bar in Freezekill), you'll find Suzu in the northwest part
of the forest.

Items (nc): Ukiyoe, Miso Oden			\\\ Ninja no Sato ||
Shop:
 Naginata		180 000 G
 Ootoro			   2100 G  3000
 Koushuu Ringo		    600 G  1000
 Maccha Uirou		    900 G  2000
 Miso			 80 000 G  1000
 Konnyaku		 10 030 G    60

- Buy a Naginata.
- A guy in the shop will sell you an Ukiyoe for 30 000 G.
- One of the NPCs in the shop will cook Miso Oden (22 200 food) for you
if you have a Donabe and the necessary ingredients. These are: Daikon,
Konbu, Tamago, Miso, Konnyaku.
 × ATTENTION! Cooking Miso Oden will remove the Knight's Saber from
 your inventory unless it's equipped.

						\\\ Treant no Mori ||
Items: BC Rod (Unique), Flare Tornado (spell)
- From the village, you can reach new areas of the forest.
- The Blue Crystal Rod is Mint's most powerful weapon (or ultimate weapon
if you've played a lot of FF7), but I'd suggest you stick with the Unicorn
Horn because of its defense boost.

- Thus concludes the world tour.
- If you're doing the Ice Cave first, you should go get Explode from
the Fire Tower first. If you're doing Fire Tower first, you should go
get Tidal Wave from the Ice Cave first.

						\\\ Koori no Doukutsu ||
Items: Duel Helm -ID (Artifact), Star Cloak -ID, Piyohan,
 Charm Bottle, Tidal Wave (spell), Black Onyx, Silver Cape, Aqua Manto,

 Pretty Mitten (Artifact)
Item (nc): Vorpal Sword (Unique, Temp)
Lost & Found: Longsword -ID / Arc Wind -ID (Ekimu)
Special: Jigenzan (waza)
Boss: Fenbeast
- You can access the caverns from a hidden path in the church in Freezekill.
- You'll need to use the Sorcerer Ring to unfreeze some stuff here.
- The double Ekim encounter can be rather problematic. The one in the
front might spam you with chain lightning while the one in the back hits
you with God Breath (2500 pod).

[Boss]                           FWTIELV
- 30 000 HP, 325 ATP, 400 DFP    RAIIII
- 12 000 xp, 9000 G
- A brutally hard boss. You should have Arche spamming Fireball to help
hold him back.
- His two special attacks (snow storm and ice spear) are Water-elemental.

Item (nc): Furanveruju (Unique, Temp)
Lost & Found: Honoo no Omamori (Geraldine)
Special: Kokuusouhazan (waza)
Boss: Flamberk
- This is the tower surrounded by mountains northeast of Olive.
- First off, if you still haven't gotten Koori no Omamoris for everyone
(RB Honoo no Omamori), you need to do it before you try to explore the
tower. Otherwise you'll take extreme damage in the super-heated areas
(12,5% each second), and since it doesn't stop at 1 HP, it can quickly
result in a game over.
- The enemies have fairly high defense here. You'll want to cast either
Valkyrie or Tidal Wave. Without Valkyrie, the Ice Coffin won't do (much)
more damage than the Laser Blade, Pole Axe or Arc Wind.
- Doom Knights have a special attack that reflects the damage they last
received. If it's Tidal Wave, you're kind of dead.
- Start by exploring the areas beyond the closed door. Once you've gotten
everything there (ie. everything up until Explode), take the eastern
path to eventually reach the boss.

[Boss]                                   FWTIELV
- 45 700 HP, 300 TP, 325 ATP, 560 DFP    ARIIII
- 30 000 xp, 19 800 G
- She can cast Explode (3600) and Indignation (4000).
- Use the Pole Axe and Elven Bow.

Item (nc): Eternal Sword (Unique)		\\\ Treant no Mori ||
Lost & Found: Soul Steal -ID (Origin)
Special: Kuukanshouten'i (waza), Jikuusouhazan, Ten'isouhazan, Origin
Boss: Origin (+ Seraph)
- Once you have the swords from both dungeons, you can have Origin
combine them into the Eternal Sword.

[Boss]                                    FWTIELV
- 45 000 HP, 1000 TP, 245 ATP, 600 DFP    RR RRAA
- 49 800 xp, 13 280 G
- His special attack Collapse has 2000 base damage. He can also cast
Indignation (4500) and Barrier.

- Afterwards, you'll warp to Alvanista.

Item (nc): Earring (Unique)			\\\ Ary ||
- Stay at the inn. After the event, head to the cave west to reach
Dhaos's Castle. Visiting the final dungeon will open up two side-quests:
The Treasure Hunt and Moria Depths. I suggest you at least do the former
before going any farther.
- The Earring is an accessory for Mint with a number of effects, including
status immunity. She doesn't really need it, though, since she already
has a Star Cloak.

Item (nc): Komonjo (Key)			\\\ Freezekill ||
- Talk to one of the NPCs in the cafe. Doing so will trigger the
Treasure Hunt quest, in which you can fly around and look for hidden
treasure. These locations can only be reached by flying. Perhaps
you've stumbled upon some of them. It doesn't matter, though, as
they're all empty until you actually trigger the quest. It's a bit
of a shame you can't start it earlier
- In any case, there are 22 of them in total as seen below.

but it does hit you quickly and repeatedly, so you'll likely end up
stunlocked thanks to critical hits.
- He can cast Tidal Wave (6200).

- The southwest path from where you fight the Dark Eye takes you to the
dungeons. There are no items there.
- Use Shuusouraizan, Indignation or Meteor Swarm to take out the Cardinals.
- Ninja Masters can petrify you.
- Roam Eyes can cast Explode (4000), Indignation (4500) and Cure (5400).
- Not far into the dungeon, you'll find a staircase surrounded by walls.
You can actually walk through a part of it. When you take these stairs,
you'll arrive at a crossways with a symbol on the ground. When you step
on it, everyone who isn't equipped with a Derris Emblem will be teleported
to the dungeons. You already have one from Ary. You can find four of
them in the nearby areas, each one guarded by a Hanzou, but it'll be
just Cless alone. Pop in a Holy Bottle and get ready to run. A Stone
Check is also recommended. You can also get Derris Emblems from Roam
Eyes, but you should just go for the chests. If Cless isn't equipped
with an emblem but some of your other characters are, they'll wait by
the symbol and rejoin when you get back there.
- Head west from the second save point to reach the second boss.

[Boss: 2× Seal Eye]                     FWTIELV
- 62 600 HP, 50 TP, 300 ATP, 800 DFP    ARRRAR
- 20 000 xp, 20 000 G
- They can cast Explode (4000) and Meteor Swarm (6000).
- A very difficult battle. If you get sandwiched between them, they're
gonna whip you silly and fu#@ you stupid. You may have to use a Chronoglass.
Make sure it'll count.

- After the third save point, you'll find a teleport mirror and some
walls you can walk through. The third boss is beyond the mirror, but
it's completely optional. Considering how c_un7y these guys are, I highly
recommend you skip it.
- When you equip the Magic Pouch, items will pop up in your inventory
after walking a certain distance (a tone will tell you whenever this
happens). You can RB it into a Magical Pouch, which gives you better
items, but you can find one of those later. Either way, these items
are not really noteworthy. You can find a list in the misc. file.
- Once you reach the fourth save point and the music changes, you're
getting close. There are no items in these areas. Once you reach the
fifth save point, the final boss awaits.

[Boss: Dhaos]                             FWTIELV
- 56 000 HP, 1000 TP, 330 ATP, 600 DFP    IIIIIIR
- 50 000 xp, 32 000 G
- He'll regenerate all physical damage above 75% HP and 50% physical
damage between 50-75% HP.
- His normal attacks can inflict Petrification.
- Dhaos Laser: 1200 | Dhaos Corridor: 2320 | Para-Triangle: Stun
- He can cast Meteor Swarm (5880).
- If you keep your distance, you don't have to worry about the three
aforementioned special attacks. When you're not close to him, he's
likely to try casting a spell. This gives you a nice opportunity to
attack.

[Boss]                                          FWTIELV
- Head: 64 765 HP, 3765 TP, 250 ATP, 720 DFP    RRRRIRR
- Arm:  40 765 HP, 1765 TP, 250 ATP, 720 DFP    RRRRIIR
- The head's normal attack is a spread shot called Chaos. His other
physical attack is called Circular, which is an exploding ball with
heavy knockback. The arm will also hit you if you get too close.
- He can cast Acid Rain, Cure (5700), Tidal Wave (5168) and Meteor
Swarm (6168). His special attacks are Last Ray (2292, V) and Tride
(1592 + poison). He'll start casting offensive magic once the arm is
gone. This makes him more vulnerable since he can't cast these while
invincible. He also stops using Acid Rain and Circular. Destroying the
arm is not necessary, however.
- His most common action is Hidden, which makes both the head and arm
invincible for a while. Try to anticipate when it ends (or just use
Chronoglasses).
- Shugohoujin is clearly the way to go here. Nothing else really works.

- Go north from B9 to find some people and the entrance to the new
areas. When you proceed past the first save point, all your Holy Bottles
will break. You won't be able to use those here (unless you get them
from a Pouch). The only other save point is right at the bottom. If
you're gonna do this, make sure you have a couple of hours at hand.
- If you want your Holy Bottles back in the same slot, equip a weapon
you only have one of other than the Eternal Sword. Once the bottles
break, equip the Eternal Sword, and the previous weapon should end up
in the Holy Bottle slot. After completing the dungeon, equip that weapon
to free up the slot, then just buy Holy Bottles.
- The Exp is really good, and you can gain as many as 20 levels going
through the place.
- There are two sets of encounters that mainly alternate between levels.
The encounters you can easily run away from are:
 × Isis                           × 2x Sokram
 × 2x Bigfoot                     × Garfbeast
 × Beast Master & Manticore       × Land Urchin

- The Manticore can petrify you. Eye Laser has 2000 base damage.
- Boarboars can be rather unpleasant, especially if Mint is wasting
time clearing the poison they inflict. Push them against the wall and
they'll largely do nothing. You'll likely need Kuukanshouten'i to
accomplish that. Do not underestimate them.
- Beast Masters can use Summon Demon for a mild 1220 base damage.
- Ice Elements can cast Tidal Wave (5000) and Cure (5400).
- Sokrams can cast Explode (4000).
- Magus can cast Tidal Wave (4600) and Indignation (4200). You'll likely
have to eat one of those if you run away from them.
- As far as I know, there's no way to kill the Land Urchin.
- I run away from Bigfoots, Manticores, Garfbeasts and Maguses.
- The Berserk Arrow is by far Chester's most powerful weapon.
- You can get Janpais if you take Ivory to the Island Armory. You can
use the item during battle to deal some damage (2000 base).
- It's simple and linear up until B18.

Boss: Douzou & Okiyo				\\\ Euclid ||
- Win 8 battles at the arena to fight Suzu's parents. You don't need to
win that battle. Even if you win, you won't get one of the normal prizes.

[Boss]                                   FWTIELV
- Douzou: 28 500 HP, 350 ATP, 204 DFP    RRR  W
- Okiyo:  15 500 HP, 300 ATP, 204 DFP    RRR  W
- 15 000 xp, 10 000 G, Bijoubu, Ukiyoe
- Without Kuukan Shouten'i or Kokuu Souhazan, you really don't stand a
chance.

Special: Shishisenretsuha			\\\ Ninja no Sato ||
- Talk to Suzu's grandfather to obtain the ougi.

						\\\ Euclid ||
- You can fight at the arena in Euclid anytime once you reach the future.
You'll fight 9 battles in a row with Cless solo. You can choose to quit
after 8 battles in which case you'll receive 10 000 G.
- There are 8 different sets of enemies (as seen at the end of the enemy
list). You'll go through them in the listed order once, after which one
of them is chosen in random.
- Basilisk Kings are your main concern. Shinkuuhazan doesn't work too
well, because of his high speed and evade. Kuukanshouten'i and Shishi
Senkou are the most effective ones.
- The last enemy is always the Wyvern (except when you fight Suzu's parents).
(I once got 34 hits on the Wyvern with Shugohoujin)
- You can't use your own healing items during the challenge. You'll be
provided with 3 Apple Gummies and 1 Orange Gummy. When your healing items
are returned, they'll be in a different order.
- Completing the challenge gives you the following prizes:

1st: Shishikouhazan
2nd: Supefura, Donabe, Hekiju
3rd: Poison Check, Paraly Check, Stone Check
