B Button - Cancel action or return to previous screen. Exit menu.
Q: How do I change my onscreen characters?
A: Open the Menu with Y and select the character you want to change to and press the A button to change.
Q: How do I change my party order?
A: Open the Menu and select the character you want to change and press the Y button to select him or her. Hover the cursor over another character you want to switch him or her with and press the Y button again to make the change.
Q: How do I use items?
A: Open the Menu and select the Items option. Select an item with the cursor and press the A button to use it. Most times another window will pop up asking you to choose which character to use the item on.
Q: What is a title and how do I change it?
A: Throughout the game and battles, characters can acquire titles which affect how their stats are improved when they level up. Titles can also change the characters' costumes.
To change the title, open the Menu and select the Status subscreen. Select the title underneath the character's name and press the A button to bring up another window with all the titles you've acquired. Select one and press the A button to change it.
Q: What is the Synopsis window?
A: The Synopsis window, available from the Menu, keeps a log of everything you've done in the game. If you haven't played the game for a couple of days, this is a great place to relearn what you've done and what you should be doing.
Q: What is the Strategy window?
A: The Strategy window is a way to command the characters that you do not control. There are three types of commands: Action, Skill/Magic, and Position.
The Action strategy affects how the CPU targets enemies. For example, the "Protect Friend" strategy makes characters target the enemy which is dealing the most damage to an ally.
The Skill/Magic strategy affects how often characters use tech points. Those that you want to use for healing, for example, can have their strategy set to "Heal."
The Position strategy affects the starting place of a character on the field and designates how far the person will go to pursue the foe. There is a map on the bottom of the screen which shows where each character will start. The farther to the right a person is, the closer to the enemy he or she will be.
Try experimenting with these for the best results.
Q: How do I save?
A: Insert a Memory Card into the GameCube and open the Menu and select "System." Then select Save and select 1 of 127 save slots. This option is available only in the field.
To save in a dungeon or town, you must first find a Memory Circle. They look like highly decorated blue mystic symbols on the ground. Press the A button to open the Save Menu.
Some Memory Circles are "sealed," and can only be activated by use of a Memory Gem, which one enemy in the dungeon will have.
Q: What is HP/TP?
A: HP stands for your Hit Points. When this number reaches zero, you die. If all four of your characters die during one battle you will be forced to start again from your last save point, except in special circumstances.
TP stands for your Tech Points. Techs are special attacks: they include techniques with the sword, magic spells, and special defenses. You can access these from the Tech subscreen under the main menu. Every tech requires a set number of tech points. If you do not have enough tech points to execute a tech, then you will not be able to execute it.
In order to restore HP and TP, you must either cook food which restores them, use gels (Apple, Orange, Lemon, Pineapple, Melange, and Miracle), or get fully healed.
Q: What does the T <-> S bar mean?
A: The T stands for Technical and the S stands for Strike. You can influence the bar through use of your EX skills. If the bar is off to the S side, the character's learned techs will become stronger, but will use fewer hits. A T-focused character will learn techs that do multiple hits, but less damage.

Q: What is the Customization menu?
A: The customization menu, lets you customize the gameplay,such as color schemes for the menu and battle screens,adjust level of difficulty,choose to have the voice-overs when you are fighting, and various other options to make your gameplay more smooth.[ Credit - Crimson Flash]
Towns, Dungeons, and the Field
Q: What are the controls in towns and dungeons?
A: Control Stick – Move.
Control Pad – Rotates the character 45 degrees to the left or right.
Y Button – Opens the Main Menu.
B Button – Advance or cancel dialog without accidentally making a choice.
A Button – Miscellaneous. Usually text at the bottom of the screen will tell you what the A button will do.
X Button – Use the Sorcerer's Ring.
Z Button – Trigger skits when the Z button is shown at the bottom of the screen.
Q: What is the Sorcerer's Ring?
A: The Sorcerer's Ring, found early in the game, works as a kind of action key which helps in every dungeon, because it has a different function in every dungeon. You'll have to think to figure out most puzzles using this object. It's invaluable.
Special devices which appear in each dungeon change the function of the Sorcerer's Ring. Examine them to change the function; examine them again to change the function back to the normal.
Q: What are skits and skit points?
A: Skits are special interactions between characters which are not essential to the story line but often provide a bit of humor and clues as to what to do or what the characters are doing at the moment.
Skit points are special rings on the field map which provide an interaction between Lloyd and another character. They provide a choice of what to say to the character that either helps or hurts your relationship with that character. Try saying the best things in each situation to make your relationships the best with everyone.
Q: What is Long-Range Mode?
A: You'll first activate Long-Range Mode at the House of Salvation south of Iselia. This allows you to ride on Noishe's (Lloyd's "dog",) and have a wider view of where you're going as well as greater traveling speed. You won't be able to see skit points, however. Press X to activate this mode.
To activate Long-Range Mode in other regions, seek out stone monuments about as tall as characters themselves. They're usually hidden in remote locations.
Q: Are there random battles?
A: No. Some monsters run into you which you cannot prevent unless you're riding Noishe, but nine out of ten times you can avoid battling. [ Credit - Satokasu Suki ]
Combat Basics
Q: What are the controls in battles?
A: Control Stick – Move the character forward or back.
Start – Pauses battle.
Control Pad – Issue pre-determined combat Orders, to change the Strategies of the CPU characters.
C Stick – Tech shortcuts.
L Button – Delay spell casting to avoid attacks.
R Button – View target name and status (after Magic Lens is used). Also, for changing the target your character is attacking.
Z Button – Execute Unison Attacks or Taunt (if you have the proper Ex Skill equipped); also, if you press the Y button to open the menu and then press Z, you can change characters in mid-battle. [ Credit - Kataki ]
X Button – Cancel spell casting and guarding. Up and X to jump; Down and X to perform a Defensive Tech (after Triet Ruins).
A Button – Attack with weapon.
Q: How do my friends participate in the battle?
A: The first four positions in the party correspond to the four controllers that be can put into the GameCube. To let one of your friends use another character, view the character's Tech menu and move the cursor to the upper right corner of the screen. Change the control type to Semi-Auto or Manual.
The difference between the two control types is that in Semi-Auto, guarding is done automatically and to jump, you must press Up and X at the same time. In Manual, you must guard using the X button and can jump by pressing Up only.
Q: How do I target specific enemies?
A: Hold the R button during battle to display the target cursor. Continue holding it and move the cursor to another enemy with the Control Stick. Release the R button and the battle continues with your character attacking the targeted foe.
Q: What are combos and what do they do?
A: If you hit an opponent successfully, the combo counter appears. With each successive strike, the combo counter rises. Increasing this count may give special titles to certain characters. Bonus Experience is also awarded after the battle for high combos.
Q: What is the Combat Menu?
A: Press Y during the battle to bring up the Combat menu. This menu helps you to make character perform certain techs, edit the techs performed during a Unison Attack, change the Stategy of characters—for example, if you want to limit how many tech points they're using—equipping items to characters, using items in battle, and escaping.
Q: Why do little chicks circle around my character's head from time to time?
A: This means you are stunned from an attack or series of attacks. Rotate the Control Stick rapidly to reduce the length it lasts.
When enemies become stunned, take the time to use any items to restore HP or TP so you will have the advantage when the monster comes out of stun.
Q: What is Over Limit?
A: Over Limit is a special mode in which characters who have taken enough damage have a black halo around them. This enables them not to stagger—not being able to move while being attacked—and halve all damage done to them. This is also the only time Sheena can summon.
Q: How does a character turn into Overlimit Mode?
A: Overlimit is affected by the hidden tension parameter for your character. If the character reaches a certain tension point, the character will turn into Overlimit Mode. However, if the character dies, the tension points will return to 0. [ Credit - tarepon ]
Q: What would I need to do in order to raise the tension level?
A: Tension can be raised by the following--
- Every time the character receives damage would be +1 (Note: Even if Presea has the "Pain Suppress" Compound Ex Skill, it would count. However, that is without guarding)
- The character who cooks +2~5
- For Sheena, every T. and S. elemental seal will count as +2
- The character who corresponds to another character's death would count as +10 [ Credit - tarepon ]
Q: What are the tension levels for each character?
A: If the tension level reaches around 90% or more, the character will be flashing red at the end of battle. If you buy "Increase Tension" at the Grade Shop, the required tension points would be cut down by 30%; thus, it would be easier for characters to undergo Overlimit mode.
Format---
- Character's Name: normal tension points required (tension points required with "Increase Tension" )
- Lloyd: 67 (45)
- Colette: 91 (61)
- Genis: 84 (56)
- Kratos: 100 (67)
- Raine: 84 (56)
- Sheena: 56 (38)

- Presea: 100 (70)
- Regal: 84 (56) [ Credit - tarepon ]
Q: Is there any way to stop taking damage when I fall to the ground after being thrown into the air?
A: In mid-air, press the X button to recover from the blow to recover your stance.
Q: What are all the status effects?
A: There are two types of status effects: physical ailments and magical ailments. The following are physical ailments.
Poison – The character's HP drops over time.
Deadly Poison – The character's HP drops more rapidly than Poison.
Paralysis – Unable to perform attacks.
Petrify – The character is turned to stone and cannot act. The game ends if all players are petrified.
Curse – Cannot cast spells or use Techs.
KO – Character has 0 HP.
The following are magical ailments.
Attack Up/Attack Down – Affects the damaging power of physical attacks.
Defense Up/Defense Down – Affects the protection of the character.
Accuracy Up/Accuracy Down – Affects damaging power of physical attacks, targeting spells, or Techs.
Magic Attack Up/Magic Attack Down – Affects the damaging power of spells.

Heavy – Character's movement is greatly reduced.
The following are beneficial statuses.
Holy Song – Increases Attack and Defense for the entire battle.
Physical Immunity – Cannot be afflicted with physical ailments.
Magical Immunity – Cannot be afflicted with magical ailments.
Q: What do all the numbers that show up after the battle mean?
A: EXP – Experience Points. Helps to level up characters.
Bonus – Adds bonus to EXP based on the number of max hits in a combo.
Max – The maximum amount of hits in a combo you performed.
Gald – How much money you gained from the battle.
Time – How much time it took you to win.
Grade – A value from –20 to 20 determined by the amount of damage inflicted, the amount of damage received and the total amount of time required to win. Grade can purchase items from merchants and can be used to make your next game easier or harder.
Techs
Q: How do I use a Tech?
A: Outside of battle, techs with a green circle by their name can be executed. Outside of battle, open the Tech screen through the Main Menu. Select the Tech and press the A button to execute the Tech (you may be asked to select a character to use a Tech on).
Inside of battle, Techs can be used for the character you're playing with B button shortcuts. Up to four can be set with the B button, Up and B, Down and B, and Left/Right and B. Open the Tech screen and select your character. Make sure your character is in Semi-Auto or Manual and you'll be able to set your Techs. The way the Control Stick moves in the left window determines how you must activate the Tech assigned to it. Press A when highlighting a space to choose a Tech in the right window. Press A again to confirm your choice. Use these shortcuts in battle to execute Techs.
Q: How do I use spells?
A: All spells require casting time. Find a space away from enemies so that you can cast the spell without interruption. If enemies attack you, you don't cast the spell (for the most part). You can cancel casting with the X button and escape from enemies if possible.
During the casting time, you can target which enemy you want to attack using the Control Stick and the A button.
Q: How do I summon a spirit?
A: Sheena can summon spirits to help with battle later in the game. She must, however, be in Over Limit mode to cast the summon. This will happen when she has taken enough damage.
Q: How do learn a Tech?
A: Learning a Tech depends on the level of the character, the Techs they've already learned, and whether he or she is an S- or a T-Type.
Techs can be learned after another Tech has been used a certain number of times. If a Tech in your menu is blue, then you probably need to execute the tech in the same "family" more. Usually it takes 50 times.
Some Techs will require the character to learn other techs only (using them won't matter). For example, at Level 37, Kratos learns Lightning Blade if he has learned Thunder Blade.
Through influence of EX Gems, characters become S-Type or T-Type. They learn specific techs for each type. It is a general rule that T-Type techs will have more maximum hits and S-Type techs will do more damage.
Q: Why would I need to forget Techs?
A: If you are raising a character as an S-Type, you may want at least a few T-Type Techs. To do so, use EX Gems to make the character a T-Type, and then choose which Techs you want to learn. For example, say Lloyd learns Fierce Demon Fang and you would rather have Double Demon Fang. You must change him to a T-Type and forget Fierce Demon Fang (all its derivatives will be deleted as well) to learn Double Demon Fang.
Q: How do I make the CPU not use certain Techs?
A: Open the Tech screen and scroll to the character you want to edit using L and R. Highlight a Tech and press the Y button to Disable/Enable the Tech.
Q: What are Secret Techs, and who has them?
A: Secret Techs are Techs that are invisible to the Tech Menu but can be used in battle. Here are all the Secret Techs.
Lloyd Irving
Lightning Thrust – Use Sonic Thrust 200 times with a lightning weapon equipped.
Lightning Tiger – Use Tiger Blade 200 times with lightning weapon equipped.
Grave Blade – Use Fierce Demon Fang 200 times with earth weapon equipped.
Rising Phoenix – Use Rising Falcon 200 times with fire weapon equipped.
Falcon's Crest – Obtain title "Eternal Swordsman," equip Material Blade, HP in the red, 100 TP available, press the X, A, and B Buttons.
Colette Brunel
Toss Hammer – Use Pow Hammer 200 times, random chance to happen.
Ice Hammer – Use Pow Hammer 200 times with ice weapon equipped.
Holy Judgment – Use Judgment 50 times, Holy Song 50 times, random chance to happen.
Genis Sage
Indignant Judgment – Use Indignation 200 times, then use again in Over Limit.

Zelos Wilder
Grave Blade – Use Fierce Demon Fang 200 times with earth weapon equipped.
Regal Bryant
Super Swallow Dance – Use Swallow Dance 200 times with wind weapon equipped.
EX Skills
Q: What are EX Gems?
A: EX Gems vary in level from 1 through 4. When a gem is set, four EX Skills become available. Only one EX Skill can be selected at one time for every EX Gem in use. A total of four EX Gems can be set at a time.
To set them, open the EX Skill Screen and highlight an open "Lv" slot. Press the A Button to set an EX Gem, and choose one of the gems available.
If you set an EX Gem, the only way to remove it is to place another. This, however, destroys the original.
Q: What do Skills do and what are Compound EX Skills?
A: Skills are either S-Type or T-Type. Having more of one kind than the other will make your character the type that has more EX Skills of that type. EX Skills have uses in battle and outside of battle. For example, Lloyd's Personal EX Skill allows the characters to run faster in towns and dungeons.
Compound EX Skills are a combination of EX Skills which unlock advanced EX Skills that can have improved benefits during battle. You have to find the right combination to unlock these skills. For example, equipping Rhythm (Lv3), Speed Cast (Lv4), Spell Save (Lv4), and Spell Charge (Lv4) allows Genis to being interrupted while casting spells.
Unison Attacks
Q: What are Unison Attacks?
A: You'll learn these after clearing the Ossa Trail. When the gauge is full, press Z to attack an enemy. If the attack hits, press the A, B, X, and Y buttons to command the four members of the party to attack with their Techs. You can change the Techs used in the attack by using the U. Attack option in the Menu during battle, or through the U. Attack option in the Menu out of battle.
Sometimes, like EX Skills, a combination of magic and techniques makes a compound Unison Attack and makes them more powerful than normal Unison Attacks. To discover Compound U. Attacks, two characters must use the right Techs. There are a slew of Unison Attacks out there; try to find a lot of them!
Q: What are all the Special Unison Attacks?
A: This guide should be able to help. Scroll down to section "3D" for the answer. If you have any more questions, PM me for more help.
Main Game
Q: How do I beat [Insert Name Here?]
A: In all sorts of battles you should have 20 apple gels, 20 orange gells and 20 life bottles on hand. If not - go and battle some random enemies on the worldmap to gain money, or waitress in Palmacosta to gain money (or do both). You should also level up every chance you can, by battling random enemies on the worldmap - but mostly, the ones that run into you. [ Credit - Satokasu Suki ]
Q: Can you beat the second boss in the Tower of Salvation (after releasing the four seals)?
A: Yes you can! A bit of a pain I guess... [ Credit - Botan ]
BMX Add: Yes, it's possible, and you should be able to do it with your characters around Level 30.
Q: How do I get Sheena?
A: If you go to the water shrine first, then Luin, finish the wind shrine and the next human ranch, then return to Luin and it should be destroyed. If you went to the wind shrine first, do the water shrine and the human ranch, then go to Luin. If you did the water and wind shrines, go to Luin after it's destroyed and she'll be by the fountain. [ Credit - Satokasu Suki ]
Q: Can you get Kratos back?
A: Yes, it's possible to get Kratos back after he leaves your party. In the doctor event at Flanoir, wait until you hear a voice that says, "Lloyd." Choose to go outside to talk to Kratos. He will rejoin your party after you forge the Eternal Ring. [ Credit - Eureka ]
Q: How do I get Lloyd's strongest weapon, the Kusanagi Blade?
A: You must defeat Sword Dancer 3. To defeat Sword Dancer 3, you first must defeat Sword Dancer 1 at the Ossa Trail before going to the Tower of Salvation, then defeat Sword Dancer 2 at the Gaoracchia Forest before you go to the Tower of Mana to defeat Luna and Aska, and then go to Iselia Forest to fight Sword Dancer 3 after the party returns from The Tower of Slavation and Colette's illness is cured.
Q: How do I get Colette's strongest weapon, the Angel's Halo?
A: Win Advanced class at Meltokio Coliseum as Colette. [ Credit - Eureka ]
Q: How do I get Genis' strongest weapon, One World?
A: Clear Red Light/Green Light mini-game at Grand Tethe'alla Bridge after using the Vinheim Key. [ Credit - Eureka ]
Q: How do I get Raine's strongest weapon, the Crystal Rod?
A: Win advanced class at Meltokio Coliseum as Raine. [ Credit - Eureka ]
Q: How do I get Sheena's strongest weapon, Divine Judgment?
A: Win advanced class at Meltokio Coliseum as Sheena. [ Credit - Eureka ]
Q: How do I get Kratos'/Zelos' strongest sword, the Last Fencer?
A: Win advanced class at Meltokio Coliseum as Zelos Twice. Defeat Seles. [ Credit - Eureka ]
Q: How do I get Kratos'/Zelos' strongest dagger, the Crystal Dagger?
A: It's treasure in Torent Forest. [ Credit - Eureka ]
Q: How do I get Presea's strongest weapon, the Gaia Cleaver?
A: Speak to Ralph at Ozette when Presea reaches level 80 or higher after obtaining the Derris Emblem. [ Credit - Eureka ]
Q: How do I get Regal's strongest weapon, Dynast?
A: Speak to a convict in the Meltokio Prison after obtaining the Derris Emblem. Regals hears that Levin, his old master, is at the Hot Springs. Go to the Hot Springs (north of the Temple of Earth) when Regal is above Level 80 to receive the weapon. [ Credit - Eureka ]
Q: So, how does this whole "Flanoir Doctor" event change stuff in the game?
A: If you speak to Kratos, you will trigger the Kratos route, which he returns to your party. Also, Zelos would "disappear" permanately later on.
If you speak to another character other than Zelos, you will trigger the Zelos route. Zelos will "disappear" temporarily and them come back.
Before the battle with Kratos in Heimdall, the one you will speak to with Kratos would be the character you chose to speak to in the Flanoir Doctor event.
When Mithos tries to take over Lloyd's body, the one who will distract Mithos and take Lloyd's place is the one you chose to speak to in the Flanoir doctor event. However, if you chose to speak with Kratos, Colette would be the one to take Lloyd's place.
If you chose the Kratos route, the "Zelos" scene would be cut during the ending. In the "FIN..." screen, you would have Kratos in the picture instead of Zelos. Other than that, there is no difference in the "FIN..." screen.
During the ending where Lloyd is standing in front of his mother's grave and calling Noishe, the one who will be standing behind Noishe would be the character you chose to speak to in the Flanoir Doctor event.
If you chose Kratos, Colette would be there. [ Credit - tarepon ]
Q: I can't get a high GRADE! How does this system work?!
A: Refer to this list to plan out how you will battle.
- Block Enemy's Attack = +0.01 (weighs proportionately with number of times)
- Block Enemy's Tech = +0.02 (weighs proportionately with number of times)
- 5+ hit combo = +0.02 (20 hits would be 0.02*4=0.08)
- Defeated Enemy with combo = +0.04 (Combo hits when defeated enemy x 0.04)
- Full HP gauge by the end of battle = +0.25 ( x number of party members qualified)
- Full TP gauge by the end of battle = +0.25 ( x number of party members qualified)
- Successful hit in U. Attack = +0.50
- Finished battle within 15 seconds = +0.50
- Finished battle within 5 seconds = +0.50 (combine with grade above = +1.00 )
- Successful Enemy Hit = -0.01 (weighs proportionately with number of hits)
- Item Usage = -0.05 (weighs proportionately with number of times)
- Attacked Enemy with Elemental Resistance = -0.05 (weighs proportionately with number of hits)
- Ally downed(0 HP) = -0.50 (weighs proportionately with number of times)
- Your character downed(0 HP) = -0.50 (weighs proportionately with number of times)
- Downed(0HP) character by end of battle = -0.50 ( x number of party members qualified)
- Negative Status Effect for character by end of battle = -0.50 ( x number of party members qualified) [ Credit - tarepon ]
Q: How can I get into the Coliseum?A: You need to have eight characters with you [and make sure you have triggered the scene at Vinheim]. [ Credit - Insanity Prevails ]
Q: Where are the Devil's Arms?A: There are nine:
- Evil Eye (Chakram) - In the Toize Valley Mine, examine the remains of the Bacura after smashing it.
- Soul Eater (Sword) - Once the dimensional transfer system is operational, go to Triet and speak to the people to learn of a cursed weapon. Exit and look for what appears to be a relationship circle. Walk into it to fight a Sand Worm. Defeat it for the sword.
- Nebilim (Twin Sword) - After getting either of the above weapons, go to Flanoir and speak with Abyssion (the guy in front of the closed building in the first area).
- Fafnir (Dagger) - After speaking with Abyssion go to Gaoracchia Forest. In the fifth area is a chest hidden by plants. Use the Sorceror's Ring's light to reveal the chest.
- Gates of Hell (Card) - After speaking to Abyssion and completing the Earth Temple, go to Altessa's and speak to the Gnomelette there. Now return to the Earth Temple and use the secret passage again. Go past the dragon and kepp going to find a chest.
- Diablos (Axe) - After speaking to Abyssion, find it in the second section of the Lantheon Gorge.
- Apocalypse (Greaves) - In Welgaia find it in the left room of the tower on the ground floor, in the area past the prison.
- Disaster (Kendama) - Go to Altamira and stay at the hotel. Choose to go out for the night and use the Elemental Railway to go to the casino. There should be a guy there who will sell the Disaster for 1000 gald. Note that you may need most of the other Devil Arms.
- Heart of Chaos (Rod) - After obtaining the other 8 weapons, speak with Abyssion again. Then speak with Koton at Hakonesia Peak to get the final weapon. Note that you may need all eight characters with you for this to happen. [ Credit - Insanity Prevails ]
Q: Why isn't the location of an enemy coming up when I scan them with the Magic Lens?A: You must use Raine to scan them for this. The only exceptions are enemies Raine can't meet. The first Botta for example. [ Credit - Insanity Prevails ]
Q: I can't find Max in Izoold! How do I get to Palmacosta?A: This is because when you visit Hima instead of Izoold, you can no longer visit Max, as when you set foot in that city, the option of Max taking you by boat dissapears. (I think this is a common problem with the American version) Instead, you will have to take the "hard" route by traveling north of Hima and defeating the bosses at Asgard Ranch, Tower of Mana, and Balocreuf Masoleum. You do NOT need to buy a road pass at Hakonesia Peak to continue the game. However, the monsters levels will not decrease because of this, so it's recommended that you become a higher level to contend with the local monsters. After these feats are accomplished, you will be able to talk to Max and travel to Palmacosta. [ Credit - Child of Death and D ]
Q: How do I rebuild Luin?A: After saving Pietro from his illness by getting Unicorn's Horn, talk to him again in his room in Hima. Then go to Luin. He should be standing near the entrance. You have to make money contributions. If your contribution exceeds the optimal amount, the extra amount will be wasted. If you make a contribution less than the required amount, it will be totally wasted. The following is the optimal (minimum) amounts:
1- 5,000 Pietro thanks you
2- 12,000 Woman appears
3- 21,500 Luin earns the title "City of Rebirth"
4- 15,000 Workers arrive
5- 20,000 More people arrive
6- 25,000 A lot more people arrive
7- 35,000 Music changes (more cheerful), regular shops reopen. A trip to Tethe'alla is required before more contributions
8- 40,000 Adventurers and misc. come
9- 45,000 Katz returns
10- 50,000 Luin restores to original state. Weapon shop reopens
11- 75,000 Flagstone streets, powerful weapon shop reopens
12- 100,000 Luin earns the title "City of Water". Upgraded physical features
13- 5,000 Statue of Sheena
14- 5,000 Statue of Lloyd
15- 5,000 Statue of Raine
Total amount of money required to rebuild Luin: 458,500 [ Credit - sagemaster ]
Q: Where is the "perfect" training place?A: Go to Torent Forest, there you will find a Gold Dragon. It will give you a fixed amount of experience points each time you defeat it. It will respawn each time you reenter the area. [ Credit - sagemaster ]
Q: Is it possible to get Corrine back?A: Yes it is. Return to Iselia village after getting Derris Emblem and duelling with Kuchinawa. View the skit "Corrine is Calling Me", then go to Martel Temple Cruxis Chamber and Corrine appears in a new spirit form. Sadly, he will not join your party but rather guards in Sheena's heart. [ Credit - sagemaster ]
Q: Does Chief Igaguri ever wake?A: Yes. After Doctor Event in Flanoir and duel with Kuchinawa, Speak to Orochi in Mizuho. Then speak to Tiga. Go to Temple of Lightning seal room. Then go back to Mizuho chief's house where the Chief wakes. After the final scene behind the Vinheim Gates, come back to Chief's house to get the Kannazuki bonus robe for Sheena. [ Credit - sagemaster ]
Q: Why can't I do the Hot Spring, dinner party, and beach events? I also can't get Colette's "Maid" title, Raine's "Maiden" title, and Genis's "Katz Katz Katz" title!A: Zelos has to be in the party. If you chose to keep Zelos (you went outside with anyone but Kratos during the Flanoir event), you can do them anytime between the Pronyma and Yggdrasill fight and the final showdown with Mithos.
