  1. NOTE: This is just my version of a perfect file. I'm not including all weapons, armor, shields, etc. because frankly that just makes the run a lot more tedious than it already is (and also one of the shields, the GiantSH, is only from a minigame which you need the 2nd carptenter for. But in this I need the 1st carptenter for cooking.) Instead, I'm just including the BEST weapon, armor, shield, helmet combo for each character. Also adding in other misc. stuff too because why not. lol

  96.  
  97. *Side note: For the armor I could've just done the "best overall stat up" boost since it can also decrease agility by quite a bit. But I decided to make it simple and do the best defense boost instead. Also that would pretty much make LifeAR (the best armor in the game) useless since that takes -25 agility which is a lot with that logic.
  98.  
  99.  
  100. TownShip houses I choose (some of which are requried for this):
  101.  
  102. House #1: Hekeller (not needed, just the best pick out of all the choices you have)
  103. House #2: Win (not needed, but can change the color of the text boxes and menus which is neat, and again none of the other choices are needed anyway)
  104. House #3: Baretta (REQURIED for: DeathBW, ShinyHT (3), & KaiserKN. also I must recruite her as early as I can since at some point in the plot she won't sell those items I just listed after the St.EvaCh section)
  105. House #4: Barose (REQURIED for the 4 spells he teaches you: Thunder, Freeze, Flame, & Missle)
  106. House #5: Yozo (REQURIED for the 16 AP points increase)
  107. House #6: Daiye (while not REQURIED, it pretty much is since it makes the stat maxing part 1 billion times easier lmao)
  108.  
  109.  
  110. Best cooking combos (that I know of):
  111.  
  112. PwrFood (+Strength): 3 ShaveIce (I know 2 Medicate works but that's only in Hanz's Item Shop which fills the 5th house in TownShip but we need Yozo instead sadly)
  113. Stamina (+Stamina): F.Spice + 2 Tuna
  114. Dinker (+Agility): 4 CureAl
  115. MisoSoup (+Wisdom): 2 F.Spice
  116. LuckCndy (+Luck): 4 Minnow
  117. GutsBL (+Guts): 4 Unagi
  118.  
  119.  
  120. Locations of all 12 tolens (from GameFAQs, also anything in ** is missable):
  121.  
  122. #1: Capitan; "Search the other dresser on the 2nd floor of the inn."
  123. #2: Tunlan; "After the 3rd stairs, enter the right door and search medicine cabinet."
  124. *#3:* Highfort Chest; "As Sten2, go into the left passageway and open the treasure chest."
  125. *#4:* Highfort Chest; "As Party2, when finding 2 stairs, enter the western one to find a treasure chest and open it."
  126. #5: Namanda; "Search the medicine cabinet inside the tree house at the entrance."
  127. #6: Guntz; "Search the eastern-most medicine cabinet in the northern building."
  128. #7: Windia Fort; "Search the left medicine cabinet in the kitchen."
  129. *#8:* Evrai; "Search the medicine cabinet inside the first house on the right."
  130. *#9:* Jack Door; "After exiting the Jack Door, search the dresser to your right."
  131. #10: Bleu's Hideout; "Take the northeast path and open the treasure chest on the left side."
  132. #11: Fish to the west of Highfort
  133. #12: Fish to the northeast of Skytower
  134.  
  135.  
  136. Shaman Locations:
  137.  
  138. Fire: Default
  139. Water: Witch's Tower
  140. Air: SkyTower
  141. Earth: FarmTown AFTER St.EvaCh fall. Also you have to donate 20 times to Namada when told to by Rand's mom. MUST NOT USE MAGIC ON PLOWING THE FIELD THOUGH!!!
  142. Holy: Bando first room AFTER St.EvaCh fall.
  143. Demon: Left enterance of Infinity.
  144.  
  145.  
  146.  
  147. How to get all 4 spells from Barose:
  148.  
  149. Get Ryu down to 1 HP and 0 AP so get poisoned (best outside Windia) and use a dragon pretty much. Then use a wfruit and use cure 2 and cure 1 to get around 2-3 AP (if you have 0 AP, you can't get Thunder) then talk to him with the lowest mood to get Thunder, then talk to him again to get Freeze, then Flame, then Missle.
  150.  
  151.  
  152. ALL permanently missable stuff in this:
  153.  
  154. - Making TownShip fly: If you kill the old man at the end of St.EvaCh, you won't be able to do this.
  155. - Renew from Ray: If you don't save all the villagers in the well.
  156. - ChopChop: Must get this BEFORE Jean gets captured in SimaFort.
  157. - Baretta: While not missable, the final shop she has IS missable after some point in the plot if you didn't get her earlier.
  158. - Barose: He's in the memory section which becomes inaccessable after you beat that part of the game.
  159. - Earth Shaman: If you use magic on the farming section, she won't be there after you beat St.EvaCh. Also if you don't donate at least 20 times to Namanda when Rand's mom tells you to go there, she won't be there either.
  160. - EmpireSD: The fishing spot becomes inaccessable after the demons are released from Infinity and you can't use the birb. TownShip can not fit in that spot.
  161. - StormRG: After you get the birb, the dungeon containing this treasure gets locked by a guard.
  162. - Both Tolens from Highfort Castle, Tolen in Evrai, Tolen after passing Jack Door (must enter Evrai to get here). All these locations get destroyed eventually.
  163.

  165.  
  166. Final Notes/Thoughts:
  167.  
  168. I'm really just doing this run for fun. Which is why I allow speed up and the use of the double xp/zeny mod. Fun fact the GBA version actually does this (other than double zeny, it actually does TRIPLE zeny) so I don't feel as bad. Obviously this does not count as an actual speedrun, please don't view it like that. Also shoutouts to a bof2 speedrunner, Xujhan, for making a glitchless guide for this game. It made going through a game a bit quicker than what I would've done so thanks for that. Breath of Fire 2 is my favorite RPG and I've wanted to do this run for such a long time and I'm finally doing it. Thanks for sticking around. :)
  169.  
  170. One more thing, I'm not including all treasure chests/dressers opened because that would add like another 10 hours to the run and this is already like 30+ hr. I know there's a way to see how many you've opened, but that's only for the 3rd carptenter. In this I need the 1st one for cooking to max out stats. Just wanted to clear that up before anyone asked.
