Shortcut:
After leaving the second town (the one
the bandits destroyed), go west along the bottom of the
isle to the side of the tunnel. The side of the tunnel
is a secret entrance and saves either a long trip back,
or 60M for the teleporter.
Zema slowdown:
In the town of Zema (a resort town),
after the biolab, the people are all tourists or
elderly, and will habitually block the bridges and paths
in town. Patience is a plus.
Visit Zema and Kueri at the same time:
Due to the fact that the monsters in
and around Zema and Kueri are very similar, the game
allows for both cities to be visited at the same time.
Use this to get better armor and weapons, get and level
up Kain the wrecker, and level up your party twice as
much, making the dump tower (Roron ) much easier to
defeat.
Easy Ceramic Knives:
When Rolf is at level 5, he needs to
level up to go to the abandoned building where the
"scoundrels" are hiding. The knives he is
using are almost useless. The Ceramic Knives in the
second town have a hit value of about 25 points for most
enemies, but cost 2800M. To buy these knives, build your
characters EXP and M around the abandoned building. The
monsters here have a value of about 80 to over 100 M
most of the time, allowing the knives to be bought just
about the time the characters are ready for the
abandoned building. This also allows you to buy Rudo's
Sonic Guns and Shotgun.
Amy with knives:
Contrary to other sources, Amy can use
knives. To best suit her abilities, pair the best knives
in the Aria with her best shot weapon. Also use knives
until a decent shot weapon becomes available.
Saving money:
When the doctor charges large fees to
heal, go to Paseo (the first town), where the doctor
only charges a small fee. You will also be in Paseo if
you are using the Visiphone and the Ryuka Technique, or
retrieving Shir the thief when she steals something.
Stealing items:
When you get Shir the thief and she is
leveled up properly (about level 10) take her to shops.
When the text finishes appearing on the screen, press B(2)
to leave. Repeat this until Rolf says that Shir is gone.
Go back to Rolf's house and she will be there, and the
item she stole will be in her inventory. Use this trick
in the Central Tower in the first city for the Visiphone,
and in the second city (the burnt out one) for the Fire
Staff. Shir often finds rare items, but you must have
patience. She only steals at random, and has a knack for
grabbing daggers and other cheap items first.
More battles:
When walking around the countryside,
enter battles to gain experience points and Meseta is
simple. To do this, walk around in circles, lines, or no
desired pattern. You will eventually get placed into a
battle. |
