Weapons
Weapons, the most important pieces of equipment! This is a COMPLETE list of all the
weapons in the game. Note that some weapons have special attacks, while others raise certain
statistics.
Some weapons are for missile attacks, some do damage from two panels away, while most hit
the panel next to you. Staffs are very low in physical attack power, but raise your intelligence
significantly, leading you to equip most of your mages with them. Also, you will always get a
bonus when you use your class' preferred weapon, and an even bigger bonus if you use a
weapon of your characters' element. The RES bonuses mean you take less damage from the
type of attack listed.

Classes
Male and Female Classes
These are the basic classes of the game, with the exception of Priest. Most of these
classes have good growth in all areas, and are not too unbalanced. While useful in the
beginning of the game, you'll want to upgrade to the higher gender-only classes later
on.
•
Soldier
Requirements: none
Best Weapon: none
•
Description: The basic class where all characters begin. With evenly distributed
abilities, these characters are quite versatile.
Evaluation: The starting point of all human classes. Don't stay in this class longer than
you have to, as it gains extremely pathetic stats. There's no reason to be using this
class if ANY OTHER fighting class is available.
•
Ninja
Requirements: STR 36, AGI 37
Best Weapon: Katana
•
Description: Highly trained spies who act under a veil of secrecy. Ninjas are experts in
martial arts and can cast low level spells. They can move up to 3 steps up or 4 steps
down and can walk unrestricted on water.
Evaluation: Much better than Soldiers in the beginning of the game, mostly because of
their ability to walk on water. They gain very high amounts of agility and have a great
movement range, as well as having a high evade rate. Their one spell they can use is
also a bonus, as is their Shuriken Barrage attack. An area-effect spell is good for them
to use once they're available, and Shuriken Barrage works very well against magician
classes. Use this class in the beginning, but don't bother with them near the end of the
game (except keep Shiven as one!). Their low strength and defense eventually catches
up to them.
•
Archer
Requirements: AGI 37
Best Weapon: Bow
•
Description: Skilled rear support characters who excel at shooting arrows. Useful in
many situations.
•
Wizard
Requirements: MP 16, INT 26, ALI-N/C
Best Weapon: Staff
•
Description: Wizards typically attack from a distance using magic and are not very
good at hand-to-hand combat. They are most effective at the rear, supporting the
troops and using lower level attack spells.
•
Cleric
Requirements: MP 18, INT 28, ALI-L/N
Best Weapon: Staff
•
Description: Clerics rely on God for strength, miraculously healing comrades and
helping lost souls return to heaven. One of the few classes that can use healing spells.
•
Knight
Requirements: STR 51, AGI 53, ALI-L/N, Knight's Certificate Emblem
Best Weapon: Sword, Thrusting Sword
•
Description: Knights display unwavering courage and value courtesy, honor, and
pride. They surpass normal soldiers in ability and can cast certain spells of virtue.
•
Priest
Requirements: MP 76, INT 96, ALI-L/N, Under 10 killings, Heavenly Spirit Emblem
Best Weapon: Staffs
•
Description: Priests are trained in the use of higher level spells of virtue. Only this
class can cast Resurrection, a spell that retrieves the souls of the dead and revives their
flesh.
•
•
Male Classes
The male classes tend to specialize in one particular area or have a combination of
abilities. Their statistics can be lopsided sometimes, as they will have very high
growth in one area and low growth in another. These are some of the game's most
powerful classes however, and should be an integral part of your team.
•
Swordmaster
Requirements: STR 95, AGI 111, Book of Initiation Emblem
Best Weapon: Sword, Katana
•
Description: Swordmasters can swiftly strike down opponents with blindingly fast
sword-handling, and they can also use support spells.

overwhelm dragons, or any creature, for that matter. They can only use missile type
spells.
•
Warlock
Requirements: MP 78, STR 90, INT 76, ALI-L/N, The Pen and the Sword Emblem
Best Weapon: Sword
•
Description: A male spellcaster, deceivingly harmless in appearance, who in reality
manipulates awesome magical power. A Warlock can fight bravely at the front lines or
sustain the troops with support spells from the rear.
•
Beast Tamer
Requirements: HP 142, STR 34, No more than 1 beast killed
Best Weapon: Whip
•
Description: Best Tamers are among the few humans that magic beasts such as
Griffins will open their hearts to. These make warriors enhance magic beasts' power
when they are in close proximity.
•
High Priest
Requirements: Rictor Only
Best Weapon: Thrusting Sword
•
Description: High-ranking priests who have dedicated themselves absolutely to the
teachings of the god Filarh, from whom they receive protection. High Priests can use
all spells of virtue, plus some recovery and attack spells.
•
Summoner
Requirements: MP 63, STR 100, INT 88, Elrik only, The Pen and the Sword Emblem
Best Weapon: none (Staffs)
•
Description: By meticulously researching spells, Summoners can call on the power of
many entities, including spirits and demons. They can use all elemental and summon
spells.
•
•
Female Classes
Female classes are usually more magically inclined than male classes, but they suffer
low strength and defenses. Many of these classes, like Valkyries, are good all-around
characters and make strong allies.
•
Valkyrie
Requirements: STR 48, INT 41, ALI-L/N, Lancer Emblem
Best Weapon: Spear
•
Description: Valkyries are versatile female warriors who fight well both on land and
water. They supplement their physical abilities with low level attack magic. Their

powerful attack spells. Her INT and MP increase faster than a Wizard's.
•
Witch
Requirements: MP 38, INT 3, ALI-N/C, Vixen's Whisper Emblem
Best Weapon: none (Staffs)
•
Description: Witches specialize in using supportive spells such as Ray of Paralysis.
They do not have strong attack spells and make poor fighters. A Witch's beauty may
be her strongest weapon.
•
Dragon Tamer
Requirements: HP 140, MP 14, No more than 1 dragon killed
Best Weapon: Thrusting Sword
•
Description: Dragon Tamers handle dragons gently and will enhance the power of any
dragons within the range of 3 panels. This female class can cast missile type magic
and are unforgiving to those that would hurt a dragon.
•
Sorceress
Requirements: Cybil only
Best Weapon: Fan (Staffs to raise INT)
•
Description: Beautiful, solitary, and wise, a Sorceress is experienced in casting
elemental and high level bane spells.

Best Weapon: Staffs
•
Description: A Witch and THE Witch, Deneb, are totally different, as different as a
pumpkin and a squash! Do you understand how different they are? Don't get confused!
•
•
Demi-human Classes
Demi-humans are a mixture of beast and normal humans. They have very good
statistics usually, and learn special abilities that are useful. Also, they can use almost
all pieces of armor. I say almost, because a Mermaid for example can't use shoes (no
feet!) Demi-humans can not change class however, like humans can.
•
Hawkman
Best Weapon: Hammer
•
Description: These violent, winged fighters crave battle. They live much longer than
humans, but maintain a youthful appearance. Because of their wings, terrain is not a
factor.
•
Mermaid
Best Weapon: Spear
•
Description: A demi-human whose upper body is human and lower body is fish.
Mermaids live in the sea and can swim competently. Echoing from craggy shorelines,
their voices can revitalize listeners.
•
Fairy
Best Weapon: none (Bow)
•
Description: Tiny, flying demi-humans. Though they are not very impressive at
fighting, Fairies make cue mascots on the battlefield.
•
Giant
Best Weapon: none
•
Description: Giants, while not intelligent enough to equip weapons, can swing their
arms like logs and their fists like rocks to wreck havoc among the enemy.
•
Transmigration Classes
•
These classes are VERY powerful, and require high stats to achieve. You can become
one of these classes if you die, then you'll be revived as the class.
•
Angel Knight
Requirements: HP 215, MP 66, STR 89, INT 91, AGI 88, ALI-L, Archangel's Feather
Emblem (Certain chance of becoming one when killed)
Best Weapon: Thrusting Sword (Needle of Light)
•
Description: Only a seasoned warrior with a pure heart can transmigrate to become an
Angel Knight. These flying characters have the ability to cast spells of virtue.
•
Evaluation: Very good stats on this class! All around high gains in all categories,
flying movement, Virtue-elemental, and cool abilities! However, as they use SP, they
can only use spells cast by items and not equip magic. Their first special ability,
Poignant Melody, is learned at level 10. This restores a LOT of HP and MP to a group
of undead at the cost of 20 SP. It is quite useful if you are using a Ghost or Dragon
Zombie. Banish, learned at level 15, costs 25 SP, drains a group of their MP, and also
exorcises any undead enemies.
•
Lich
Requirements: MP 118, INT 134, ALI-C (Be killed when wearing Ring of the Dead
Best Weapon: Staffs
•
•
Undead Classes
•

Dragon Zombie

•
Description: A dragon that's been revived after death. Terrifying and violent, Dragon
Zombies attack using venom. They will also resurrect after being slain in battle.
•
•
Beast Classes
Undead classes are basically characters that use Bane-elemental attacks and revive
after being killed. They are removed from battle completely if hit with Exorcism or
Banish, or if Faith is cast while they are fainted.
•
Griffin
Description: A magical winged beast with the body of a lion and the head of an eagle.
Though Griffins' attack power is not high, they have a unique attack, Windstorm, that
draws on the power of their wings. They are unaffected by terrain type.
•
Cockatrice
Description: A magical beast with the body of a chicken, a snake's tail, and scales.
Since Cockatrices can fly, they're unaffected by terrain type. Their Petrifying Breath
turns foes into stone.
•
Octopus
Description: A gigantic Octopus that is extremely powerful in water, but less effective
on land. It's difficult to dodge their 8-legged assault.
•
Cerberus
Description: A mythical, two-headed, four-legged canine whose Breath can put foes to
sleep.
•
•
Dragon Classes
Dragons are very high in defense and attack power, but are extremely slow, with snail-
like movement. They come in a variety of elements, each with different powers.
Upgrading them is a bit tricky, and is covered in the Hints and Tips section.
•
Thunder Dragon
Requirements: Wind element
•
Description: A dragon with the wind element. Thunder Dragons paralyze foes with
their Thunder Breath and have no equals in physical battle. Their STR and HP
increase at an astounding rate.
•
Red Dragon

Fire Breath and have no equals in physical battle. Their STR and HP increase at an
astounding rate.

their Poison Breath and have no equals in physical battle. Their STR and HP increase
at an astounding rate.
•

enemies to sleep. Their strength is unmatched and their HP increase at an astounding
rate.
•
Mushus
Requirements: HP 259, STR 130, AGI 69, ALI-L (upgrades in battle)
•
Description: A dragon with silver-white scales. On the snowy plains, Mushus inspires
awe with its dignified bearing. Its breath has the power of its element.
•
Naga
Requirements: HP 259, STR 130, AGI 69, ALI-N (upgrades in battle)
•
Description: A dragon with golden scales, Naga parades its distinctive appearances
most often near the waterfront, its preferred surroundings. Its breath has the power of
its element.
•

daunting wings. Its breath has the power of its element.
•
•
Dark Classes
These are "evil" classes, seen being used by the enemy usually, and you'll have to
persuade them. They are quite powerful, and their special abilities usually are Bane-
elemental and do status changes.
•
Gorgon
Best Weapon: none (Bow)
•
Description: A monster with a snake-like body and snakes protruding from its head.
Gorgons have the power to petrify enemies. Don't forget to equip a shield when facing
them.
•
Gremlin
Best Weapon: none (Bow)
•
Description: Small flying demons with evil blood flowing through their veins.
Contrary to their appearance, they are friendly and playful, just like mischievous little
kids.
•
Evaluation: They have suffered a huge drop in strength from the original Tactics Ogre,
and their defenses are worse than ever. And as bows are much weaker in this game,
Gremlins really aren't very good characters. I do not recommend actually fighting with
one. They get Fairy's Kiss at level 10, which can charm the enemy and deal some
damage for 15 SP. Fairy's Embrace is learned at level 15, and it damages and confuses
(NOT PETRIFIES!) the enemy for 25 SP. Both special abilities are Bane-elemental.
•
Lesser Daemon
Best Weapon: Axe, Hammer
•
Description: Evil warriors that are loyal only to their own desires. Lesser Daemons are
not as powerful as other daemons and can only use lower level bane spells. They are
about as intelligent as humans.
•
•
Enemy Classes
These are "evil" classes, seen being used by the enemy usually, and you'll have to
persuade them. They are quite powerful, and their special abilities usually are Bane-
elemental and do status changes.

•
Walkthrough
•
Here is a walkthrough of the game, which mostly spoiler free! No major plot twists are
revealed. Instead, we have concentrated on battle strategies for each stage.
•
Answer the Fortune Teller's questions carefully. They determine your element,
alignment, starting emblem, starting items, and starting allies. If you are not satisfied
with what turns out, just reset and try again.
•
Battle 1: Lutra Islands
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Stan, Bandit (Water, Chaos) (Francisca, Hard Leather), leaves Francisca
Enemies: Male Soldier (Fire, Neutral) (Short Sword, Hard Leather, Leather Hat), Male
Soldier (Water, Neutral) (Short Sword, Hard Leather), and Female Soldier (Fire,
Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard Leather).
•
Just carefully whack enemies other than the boss with your sword. If you manage to
defeat Stan's troops before he falls, you can get some useful items. Your guests will
do practically all the fighting, so concentrate on finishing off weakened enemies and
collecting treasure.
•
Battle 2: Port Scabellum
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Mullin, Female Wizard (Wind, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Robe, Amulet)
(Thunder Flare, Fireball), leaves Thunder Flare spell
Enemies: Female Soldier (Water, Chaos) (Short Bow, Hard Leather), Male Soldier
(Wind, Neutral) (Short Sword, Hard Leather), and Male Soldier (Water, Law) (Short
Sword, Hard Leather).
•
After a few turns Orson and Rictor will join you and Ivanna. They will do most of the
fighting, but you must still be careful. It is possible to die if you are ganged up by all
the enemies! Mullin's Thunder Flare spell seriously hurts, so don't get into critical HP
when in her spell range. Try to defeat the lackey soldiers first, to get some good
treasure. Rictor's Lightning Bow spell will do around 70 damage to the soldiers, so
just finish them off once they are sufficiently weakened. Remember Ivanna can cast
Heal, as can Rictor.
•
After the battle, you'll get 3500 goth of spending money from Rictor. Recruit a Hawk
Man from the shop (they make great archers), and buy any armor, weapons, or spells
you may need. Use any stat-boosting items you may have in training mode, if you
wish, but I'd save them. Level up everyone to level 2 or 3 by fighting random battles
in the Lutra Islands. Try to recruit a random Wizard in a battle. It will help
tremendously if you get several of your characters the Centurion (STR+20) and Sniper
(AGI+10) emblems. There is a hidden treasure of a Glass Pumpkin in the Lutra
Islands, and a Dragon Shield in Scabellum.

Battle 3: Vespa Hill
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Cressida, Female Archer (Earth, Law) (Great Bow, Plumed Headband, Hard
Leather), leaves Great Bow
Enemies: Male Soldier (Fire, Neutral) (Long Sword, Hard Leather)
Male Soldier (Earth, Neutral) (Short Sword, Leather Hat, Hard Leather)
Female Soldier (Fire, Neutral) (Short Sword, Leather Hat, Hard Leather, Short Bow)
Female Soldier (Earth, Neutral) (Short Bow, Leather Hat, Hard Leather)
Bandit (Fire, Neutral) (Francisca, Hard Leather)
Bandit (Earth, Neutral) (Francisca, Hard Leather, Short Bow, Leather Hat)
•
Ivanna will help you out in this battle as a guest. Her physical attack is strong, and her
healing spell is very useful. Try to take out the bandits first, as they have the strongest
attacks. The soldiers with bows are annoying, but not as much of a threat as those
with swords. If you want, you can try persuade the male Soldier with the Long Sword,
as these weapons can't be bought yet. Take out the enemy leader last, in order to gain
maximum experience and treasure from the battle. Remember that you have cure
leaves in your inventory that you can use to heal!
•
After the battle, Ivanna will join you. Get her the Centurion and Sniper emblems and
she will become a powerful attacker. Now, go back to Scabellum, save, and then
travel back north to Vespa Hill to fight an optional battle.

Battle 4: Vespa Hill
Objective: Defeat all Enemies!
Enemies: Fairy (Water, Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard Leather)
Fairy (Earth, Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard Leather)
Gremlin (Water, Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard Leather)
Gremlin (Earth, Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard Leather)
Griffin (Water, Neutral)
Griffin (Earth, Neutral)
Griffin (Earth, Neutral)
•
Try to save Glycina! Her defenses are VERY low, but she will run away from the
baddies and towards your party. The Griffins are the strongest enemies defensively,
while the Gremlins and Fairies have very low defense and attack. If you want any of
your males to be Beast Tamers, make sure they don't kill off more than 1 Griffin
each! You can take out the Fairies in one or two hits easily, but be careful of their
high evade rate, which can be very annoying. Near the end of the battle, you can
persuade a Gremlin in to your party if you feel like it, but the only Griffin worth using
is a Wind elemental one, so don't bother with these guys.
•
After the battle, Glycina will join you if you let her. She comes with some useful
equipment, and as she herself is almost useless right now without her special abilities,
unequip her of her Ice Chain, Glass Pumpkin, and Dragon Gem then give these items
to others. The Glass Pumpkin is VERY heavy, so give it to someone who doesn't need
a high movement range but does need a defense boost, like a Cleric.
•
Battle 5: Formido Fortress
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Grimal, Male Knight (Long Sword, Tower Shield, Chain Mail), leaves Chain
Enemies: Male Soldier (Water, Neutral) (Long Sword, Leather Hat, Hard Leather)
Male Soldier (Fire, Neutral) (Long Sword, Hard Leather, Short Bow, Leather Hat)
Male Soldier (Fire, Neutral) (Long Sword, Leather Hat, Hard Leather)
Male Archer (Water, Neutral) (Short Bow, Plumed Headband, Hard Leather)
Female Archer (Fire, Neutral) (Great Bow, Plumed Headband, Hard Leather)
Male Wizard (Water, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Robe) (Crag Crush, Ice Javelin)
Female Cleric (Fire, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Robe) (Heal, Cleanse)
•
This battle looks very challenging at first, but it's not really. The first thing you should
do is try to take out the closest enemies, probably a few of the soldiers. Next, either
persuade or take out the Wizard and Cleric. If you did not start out with a Cleric in
your party, try to persuade this one. The Wizard leaves Crag Crush, while the Cleric
leaves her Cleanse spell. You can persuade one of the Archer's for their Plumed
Headband if you want, but it's not super useful, and a Bandana is better of mages
anyways. Take out Grimal once you have taken care of all his troops.
•
Battle 6: Lake Ardea
Objective: Defeat all enemies!
Enemies: Hawkman (Wind, Neutral) (Halt Hammer, Tower Shield, Chain Mail)
Hawkman (Earth, Neutral) (Halt Hammer, Tower Shield, Chain Mail)
Hawkman (Earth, Neutral) (Halt Hammer, Bandana, Hard Leather)
Fairy (Wind, Neutral) (Bow Gun, Hard Leather)

•
Cybil will be a guest in this battle, and she is a very powerful ally. Her Thunder Flare
does a lot of damage to up to 5 enemies at a time. She will help you by weakening
several of the enemies, but it will be usually by you who will finish them off. Try to
avoid standing in the water, as it weakens your attack and defense by a lot (unless you
are an Octopus). If you did not hire a Hawk Man, recruit the Wind-elemental one or
the Shield-wearing Earth-elemental one. They come with Halt Hammers and Chain
Mail, items that can't be bought yet. The Bandana-wearing Hawkman drops the useful
Sorcerer's Cup, so make sure you defeat him and collect his treasure. The Wind-
elemental Griffins may also come in handy, especially once he learns Windstorm at
level 10, but if you choose to defeat him he leaves a Savage Bugle.
•
Battle 7: Cape Urodela
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Sitri, Male Ninja (Fire, Chaos) (Matuskaze, Amulet, Flame Leather)
(Nightmare)
Enemies: Male Ninja (Wind, Neutral) (Short Sword, Bandana, Chain Mail) (Air
Blade)
Male Ninja (Water, Neutral) (Short Sword, Bandana, Chain Mail) (Ice Javelin)
Male Ninja (Water, Neutral) (Short Sword, Bandana, Hard Leather) (Ice Javelin)
Female Ninja (Wind, Neutral) (Bow Gun, Bandana, Chain Mail) (Air Blade)
Female Ninja (Water, Neutral) (Bow Gun, Necklace of Resistance, Hard Leather)
Witch (Water, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Spell Robe) (Slumber Mist)
•
There is at least one enemy here you MUST persuade: the Witch. She will only leave
a junky Magic Seed if you defeat her. But, persuading her gives you a powerful Spell
Robe and the expensive Slumber Mist sleep spell. You can even keep her and use her
in your party, if you wish. The Ninja with the Necklace of Resistance is immune to
spells, so defeat her with physical attacks. She will always leave her Necklace of
Resistance as a treasure. You can persuade some of the Chain Mail wearing Ninjas if
you want, as Chain Mail is very expensive, and they come with spells that you may
find useful. Be careful the persuaded enemies and Cybil don't manage to kill Sitri
before you finish off his cronies! A well-planned healing spell from Ivanna or your
Cleric can help the black Ninja to keep kicking. Once he's alone, defeat him for his
katana.
•
After the battle, you have a choice. If you choose choice A, you'll get Shivan, a Fire-
elemental Ninja who comes with Kagari-bi, the Fire-elemental katana. I believe you'll
also eventually get Cybil to join you. If you choose choice B, you'll get Orson, the old
man Archer. He's not as useful as Shivan, but he isn't totally useless either. I think
you'll also eventually get the super powerful High Priest Rictor to join you...I'm taking
choice B for now, as I want Rictor, but I'll take the Choice A route in a bit too!
•
Hidden on the lone stone tile in the middle of the water in this stage is a Hyacinth Fan,
a strong weapon for any Wind-elemental characters.

•
The Fairies are minor enemies, and can be taken out in one or two physical strikes.
The Hawkmen are pretty strong and can cause a medium amount of damage with their
hammers. The Blue Dragons are the strongest enemy though. Their breath attack can
cause major damage and put you to sleep. Recruit the one with the Dragon Eyes
equipped if you want. Have your male character that you plan to make a Dragoon deal
the finishing blow to the dragons.
•
After the battle, Shiven the Ninja joins you. He is very strong stat wise, has a powerful
fire-elemental katana, and is perfect once you get him the Centurion and Sniper
emblems.
•
Battle 9a: Arena
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Damiel, Male Cleric (Fire, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Robe of the Wise,
Armlet of Wisdom) (Heal Plus, Cleanse), leaves Robe of the Wise
Enemies: Male Knight (Fire, Neutral) (Long Sword, Tower Shield, Chain Mail)
Male Knight (Fire, Neutral) (Long Sword, Tower Shield, Chain Mail) (Lightning
Bow)
Bandit (Wind, Chaos) (Francisca, Chain Mail, Armlet of Agility), leaves Armlet of
Agility
Bandit (Earth, Neutral) (Francisca, Chain Mail)
Male Archer (Fire, Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard Leather)
Male Archer (Earth, Neutral) (Great Bow, Hard Leather)
•
Minerva the mermaid is a guest in this battle. She will run away from the enemies, so
she will probably not die easily. Make sure you concentrate all of your attacks on one
enemy at a time, as Damiel can heal several characters at once with his Heal Plus
spell. The Bandit wearing the Armlet of Agility will drop it, so make sure to collect
the treasure. If you can attack the enemies in the water while on land, you will do extra
damage to them. After the battle, Minerva will swim off. I haven't tested to see what
happens if you let Minerva die (she is very good at staying alive!), but I believe it's the
same battle as if you kill her off in battle 9b. Be sure to equip the Robe of the Wise on
a mage after this battle!
•
Battle 8b: Sufrir Temple
Objective: Defeat all enemies!
Enemies: Gremlin (Wind, Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard Leather)

Gremlin (Earth, Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard Leather)
Earth Dragon (Earth, Neutral)

•
Orson, the old man Archer, is fighting with you as a guest in this battle. He will join
you if he survives. The Dragons have good defenses, but if you gang up on them and
use some magic they will fall. Be careful of their breath attacks though, as they can be
quite strong. If you have one male character deal the finishing blow to all four dragons
then he will only need to kill one more to get the emblem required to become a
Dragoon. The Gremlins tend to fly to high spots on the field where your attacks can't
hit them, but area-effect 100% hit magic (like Thunder Flare) cast by a Wizard of even
a Ninja will take them out with no fuss. Also, a Hawk Man with a bow can reach some
of the Gremlins by flying to an adjacent high place. Recruit a dragon if you want, but I
warn you that they are VERY slow. One of the Earth Dragons leaves a "Mirror of the
Gods", which you may find useful if you need to change someone's element.
•
Once Orson joins, make sure to get him the Centurion Emblem if you plan on using
him at all, as his STR is very low for a physical attacker. He isn't that useful as an
Archer, but I keep him as his special sprite class anyways. He is useful when you give
him flight or warping item and a bow of his element, but a Hawk Man is better in my
opinion. An Ice Wand is hidden as buried treasure in Sufrir. It's in the top right corner
of the screen. Go down 2, then right 1. It's just above the gray stone patch, on green
stone gravel.
•
Battle 9b: Arena
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Minerva, Mermaid (Water, Neutral) (Pike, Chain Mail, Water Ring,
Bandana), leaves Water Ring
Enemies: Mermaid (Water, Neutral) (Pike, Chain Mail, Plumed Headband)
Mermaid (Fire, Neutral) (Pike, Chain Mail, Plumed Headband)
Mermaid (Fire, Neutral) (Pike, Chain Mail, Plumed Headband)
Hawkman (Water, Neutral) (Halt Hammer, Chain Mail, Ice Shield), leaves Ice Shield
Hawkman (Fire, Neutral) (Halt Hammer, Chain Mail, Tower Shield)
Octopus (Water, Neutral)
Octopus (Fire, Neutral)
•
First, do NOT kill Minerva if you want to get a special Mermaid to join your party
(specifically, Aerial). However, if you want to get a Naga (upgraded Dragon class)
and the Earth Shield, at the sacrifice of a special character, go ahead and do the evil
deed of killing the innocent Minerva. This is a good place to have two separate saves,
as you can trade characters and items only gotten in one of the battlefields.
•
Minerva's special ability is Lullaby, which can put up to 5 characters to sleep it one
shot. Her mermaid troops will also have this ability if their level is 10 or above. The
Octopi have a medium-strength special attack, but chances are you will kill them
before they can use it. Make sure to collect the Ice Shield held by one of the
Hawkmen, and the Urn of Chaos dropped by one of the Octopi. If you critical OR kill
Minerva, she will drop her Water Ring at the end of the battle. If you kill Minerva
(EVIL!), go to 11. If you let her live, go to battle 10.
•
Battle 10a: Rana Sea
Conditions: Do NOT kill Minerva
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Aerial, Mermaid (Wind, Neutral) (Trident, Thunder Chain, Amulet), leaves
2000 goth
Enemies: Mermaid (Wind, Neutral) (Pike, Chain Mail, Plumed Headband)
Mermaid (Water, Neutral) (Pike, Chain Mail, Plumed Headband)
Mermaid (Water, Neutral) (Pike, Chain Mail, Plumed Headband)
Fairy (Wind, Neutral) (Bow Gun, Hard Leather)
Fairy (Water, Neutral) (Bow Gun, Hard Leather, Cassowary Feather), leaves
Cassowary Feather
Octopus (Wind, Neutral)
Octopus (Water, Neutral)
•
So, you let Minerva live! But you get to fight the easier and thus less profitable battle
now. However, after the events ahead you'll get Aerial to join your party! She is quite
a strong character, as you will find out in this battle.
•
Aerial is a stronger version of Minerva basically. Her Lullaby will be more accurate,
and her Trident does more damage than Minerva's Pike. The Fairies have Fairy's Kiss
learned, and can restore one of their ally's status and a bit of their HP. They fall in just
a few physical strikes though. The Octopi aren't too strong, but they do have a
confuse-inducing special attack. Remember the Mermaids and Octopi power up in
water, but weaken on land. If the Fairy with the Cassowary Feather is near one of the
Octopi, it gets a bonus like if it was near a Beast Tamer. Finish off Aerial once you
eliminate her troops.
•
Battle 10b: Rana Sea
Conditions: Kill Minerva
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Aerial, Mermaid (Wind, Neutral) (Trident, Thunder Chain, Amulet), leaves
2000 goth
Enemies: Mermaid (Wind, Neutral) (Pike, Chain Mail, Plumed Headband)
Mermaid (Earth, Neutral) (Pike, Chain Mail, Plumed Headband)

Hawkman (Earth, Neutral) (Halt Hammer, Chain Mail, Earth Shield), leaves Earth
Shield
Naga (Wind, Neutral)
Naga (Earth, Neutral)
•
Well, you killed poor little Minerva. Here's the alternate battle against Aerial, and it is
much tougher! The rewards are much better though. Make sure you claim the Earth
Shield once you defeat the Hawkman, and also be sure to recruit one of the Nagas,
preferably the Wind-elemental one. Persuading both is also a good idea, as you can
change their elements and change their classes to Mushus or Vrtra as long as you have
a Tome of Discipline or Urn of Chaos. Yes, you can have the upgraded Dragon classes
this early, instead of waiting to level up to level 18 or so! Also, persuade the Wind-
elemental Mermaid, as you won't be getting Aerial to join you.
•
All the Mermaids have Lullaby, the Hawkmen have Thunder Arrow, and the Nagas
have their elemental breath attacks. Carefully take out one enemy at a time and don't
let your entire party get put to sleep. Having a Witch with Purify and a Cleric with
Cleanse will allow you to wake up sleeping characters without smacking them for
damage. The Nagas have very high stats and they power up in water and around the
Mermaid with the Dragon Gem. Be very careful of them! Once you have killed off all
the enemies you haven't persuaded, take out Aerial. Remember her defense and attack
stats lower when she is out of the water! Aerial will NOT join you once you complete
the events after this stage.
•
If Aerial joins you, get her the Sniper Emblem, and the Centurion Emblem as well
(remember she is strongest when fighting in the water!) Strip her of her Thunder
Chain, Amulet, and Trident if you aren't going to use her in the next battle (which is
on land anyways).
•
Battle 11: Solea Church
Objective: Save Eleanor!
Leader: Karcist, Dragoon (Wind, Chaos) (Fafnir, Tower Shield, Plate Mail, Iron
Helm), leaves Fafnir
Enemies: Female Archer (Fire, Neutral) (Great Bow, Chain Mail, Plumed Headband,
Dragon Gem)
Female Archer (Earth, Neutral) (Great Bow, Chain Mail, Sherwood Hat, Dragon
Gem), leaves Sherwood Hat
Thunder Dragon (Wind, Law)
Red Dragon (Fire, Neutral)
Earth Dragon (Earth, Neutral)
Blue Dragon (Water, Neutral) (Dragon Eyes), leaves Dragon Eyes
•
Eleanor is a guest in this battle, so make sure you have a Cleric or Knight to heal her.
She will not attack, but will tend to run in the back of your troops and avoid the
enemies.
•
Have your male character that is striving for the Dragoon class deal the killing strike
to the dragons. Recruit one if you want, but I don't recommend it. Make sure no one
steals the Blue Dragon's or Archer's treasure once they are defeated, as the Dragon
Eyes and Sherwood Hat are rare items. This battle may seem overwhelming at first
(especially as the Dragons use their breath attacks), but concentrate your attacks on
one enemy at a time and you will pull through quite easily. Make good use of area-
effect magic, as the Dragons tend to crowd together in groups. After the battle,
Eleanor will join you as a guest.

Walkthrough: Part 2

Battle 12: Mt. Aquila
Objective: Defeat all enemies!
Enemies: Hawkman (Fire, Neutral) (Halt Hammer, Chain Mail, Tower Shield)
Hawkman (Wind, Neutral) (Halt Hammer, Chain Mail, Thunder Shield)
Gremlin (Fire, Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard Leather)
Gremlin (Wind, Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard :eather)
Cerberus (Fire, Neutral)
Red Dragon (Fire, Neutral)
Red Dragon (Fire, Neutral)
•
Eleanor is guesting again in this battle, but if she loses all her HP (highly unlikely) she
will simply use her Transfer Stone and escape the battle. Almost all of the enemies are
Fire-elemental, so Water spells and weapons will be very effective. Note that it will
take the Red Dragons practically forever to get to you, as their movement range is
extremely poor in the uneven terrain of the volcano. The Hawkmen and Gremlins can
fly though, so they will reach you much faster. Try to take out the Gremlins first, as
their charming ability can be annoying. Their defenses are extremely low, so just a
few hits will take them out easily.
•
It is very important to persuade the Wind-elemental Hawkman with the Thunder
Shield! He will NOT leave it behind when defeated, so it is up to you to procure this
treasure. And if you still haven't recruited a Hawkman for your party, this one makes a
perfect choice. The Cerberus might be interesting to persuade, as it is a pretty good
beast. However, be careful it doesn't kill the Thunder Shield wearing Hawkman!
•
This battle marks the end of Scenario One. After the very long chain of events,
Eleanor will join your party. Back at the world map, you will have a choice of two
different battles. I recommend going to Gryllas Forest and Blete first, as you'll get a
powerful ally and a summon spell. Before fighting in Gryllas though, MAKE SURE to
have the Faith and Exorcism spells, even better to have multiple copies. At least one
cleric is VITAL, and having an Angel Knight with Banish is also a good idea. Do take
note that the events ahead will be slightly different if you fight at Belleza before you
fight at Blete, recruiting the two special characters in a different order.
•
Battle 13: Gryllus Forest
Objective: Defeat all enemies!
Enemies: Ghost (Bane) (Scripplay's Staff, Robe) (Nightmare)
Ghost (Bane) (Scripplay's Staff, Robe) (Enfeeble)
Male Undead Soldier (Fire, Neutral) (Short Sword, Hard Leather)
Male Undead Soldier (Earth, Neutral) (Short Sword, Hard Leather)
Female Undead Soldier (Fire, Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard Leather)
Female Undead Soldier (Earth, Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard Leather)
Male Undead Wizard (Fire, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Robe) (Fireball)
Male Undead Wizard (Earth, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Robe) (Acid Vapor)
•
Although the undead enemies are very weak physically, they are able to regenerate
when killed, AND two new undead will appear every turn once you start removing the
enemies! This can be very annoying if you don't have enough characters that can
banish the undead. An Angel Knight's Banish ability works, but it's doubtful you'll
have a level 15 Angel Knight at this stage. Clerics can remove undead in two ways.
The first is Exorcism, which strikes like area-effect magic and banishes the undead
while they are still conscious. Faith banishes any undead that are in their "fainted"
state, with their HP at 0. A combination of these two spells will allow you to finish
this battle without too many problems. If you can spare the time, persuade the Ghost
with Enfeeble. This Bane spell can't be bought yet, and is a simple (but weak) HP-
absorb attack. One strategy here is to split your characters into two groups and remove
the undead on both sides of the map that way.
•
Battle 14: Blete
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Euphaire, Shaman (Fire, Chaos) (Fire Wand, Robe of the Wise, Amulet)
(Salamander), leaves Salamander
Male Undead Knight (Fire, Neutral) (Long Sword, Chain Mail, Tower Shield)
Male Undead Knight (Water, Neutral) (Long Sword, Chain Mail, Tower Shield)
Female Undead Knight (Water, Neutral) (Pike, Chain Mail)
Female Undead Wizard (Fire, Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard Leather) (Firestorm)
Female Undead Wizard (Water, Neutral) (Short Bow, Hard Leather) (Ice Field)
Dragon Zombie (Bane)
Warlock (Fire, Neutral) (Long Sword, Chain Mail, Bandana) (Fluid Magic)
•
The first thing you want to do is take out as many of the undead as you can, as quickly
as possible. Remember that you can use magic leafs to restore MP, allowing you to
make immediate use of Faith and Exorcism. No new undead can appear in this battle,
so once they are banished the undead cannot come back. I recommend persuading the
Dragon Zombie, as it is a rare character and not completely useless in battle either.
•
Euphaire and her Warlock make a deadly team. He uses Fluid Magic to restore a ton
of Euphaire's MP, and then she casts her strong Salamander summon spell EVERY
SINGLE TURN! The Warlock himself makes a very good ally, and his spell is not for
sale in shops yet, so I highly recommend persuading him. Make it a priority in this
battle. However, be sure to not let any characters drop dead! Euphaire's spells will take
huge chunks off of your HP, so Heal and Heal Plus spells are very important. After the
battle, you will get Euphaire's awesome Salamander spell and she will join you.
•
Battle 15: Vespa Hill
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Surgat, Beast Tamer (Wind, Chaos) (Beast Whip, Chain Mail, Armlet of
Agility), leaves Beast Whip
Enemies: Cerberus (Fire, Neutral)
Cerberus (Fire, Neutral)
Cerberus (Water, Neutral)
Griffin (Fire, Neutral)
Griffin (Earth, Neutral)
Cockatrice (Fire, Neutral)
Cockatrice (Earth, Neutral)
•
Anyone else reminded of Ganb from Tactics Ogre: Let us Cling Together? The Beast
Tamer has a pretty strong attack, and his mere presence around any of his allies
strengthens them. The most dangerous enemies are the Cockatrices, as they can petrify
you. Next come the Cerberuses, as they can put you to sleep. Although the enemies
are strong defensively, their normal attacks are not very strong, so you only have to be
careful of their special attacks. Take out several of the beasts before they manage to
get enough SP to unleash some powerful abilities.
•
You'll get some alignment changing items after the battle, along with Surgat's Beast
Whip. Now, get ready for a real fight, if you so choose.
•
Battle 16: Belleza Fort
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Elrik, Summoner (Water, Chaos) (Ice Wand, Ice Chain, Amulet) (Fenrir),
leaves Fenrir
Enemies: Female Ninja (Water, Neutral) (Great Bow, Chain Mail, Bandana)
Female Ninja (Wind, Neutral) (Francisca, Chain Mail, Bandana) (Air Blade)
Female Ninja (Wind, Neutral) (Pike, Chain Mail, Warp Shoes), leaves Warp Shoes
Valkyrie (Water, Neutral) (Pike, Chain Mail, Plumed Headband) (Ice Field)
Ollen, Valkyrie (Wind, Neutral) (Trident, Chain Mail, Plumed Headband) (Thunder
Flare)
Witch (Water, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Spell Robe, Pointy Hat) (Constrain, Poison
Squall)
Witch (Wind, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Spell Robe, Pointy Hat) (Fluid Magic,
Slumber Mist)
•
Elrik and his Witch use the same strategy as Euphaire and her Warlock. She will
restore his MP with Fluid Magic and he will cast Fenrir multiple times. His magic is
brutal, so try to kill or persuade the Witch as soon as you can. Both Witches can cast
annoying status spells, while the Ninjas and Valkyries can use minor attack magic.
Although you do start in a bad position on the map, just carefully advance forwards,
trying to take out the Fluid Magic Witch. Once she is gone, Elrik can't cast his Fenrir
spell every single turn. If you can manage it, take out the rest of the enemies carefully,
healing your characters liberally with area-effect Heal Plus spells. None of these
enemies have very high defenses, so they're vulnerable to most attacks. Try to have
Deneb or Euphaire unleash Salamander to take out a few foes!
•
The Witches have Pointy Hats, which are slightly stronger Bandanas. One of the
Ninjas has Warp Shoes and leaves those behind when defeated. Be careful no one
steals the treasure! After the battle, Elrik will join your party.
•
Battle 17: Naja Forest
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Grevis, Siren (Fire, Neutral) (Caldia, Cloak of Authority, Armlet of Agility,
Armlet of Wisdom)(Gnome), leaves Gnome
Enemies: Female Knight (Earth, Neutral) (Long Sword, Plate Mail, Earth Shield)
Female Knight (Water, Neutral) (Claymore, Plate Mail, Iron Helm) (Heal)
Female Soldier (Earth, Neutral) (Great Bow, Chain Mail, Leather Hat)
Witch (Water, Neutral) (Scipplay's Staff, Water Garb, Pointy Hat) (Ray of Paralysis,
Fluid Magic), leaves Water Garb
Female Wizard (Earth, Neutral) (Earth Wand, Spell Robe) (Firestorm, Ice Javelin),
leaves Earth Wand
Female Wizard (Water, Neutral) (Ice Wand, Spell Robe, Pointy Hat) (Crag Crush, Air
Blade), leaves Ice Wand
Female Cleric (Water, Neutral) (Halt Hammer, Spell Robe) (Heal Plus, Cleanse),
leaves Cleanse
•
You need to advance quickly to avoid the enemy preparing itself for blasting you
away. Notice that the Siren has yet another summon spell, Gnome. Also notice there's
another Witch you likes to use Fluid Magic on said Siren. They make a deadly team,
so get rid of (or persuade) that Witch ASAP! Take out the mages first as their abilities
are strong and their defenses are low. The Cleric has the annoying Heal Plus, so make
sure she doesn't get a chance to undo all the damage you cause. The Knights should
fall next, and make sure to grab some of their good armor! Persuading the Knight with
the Earth Shield is a pretty good idea. Persuading both Knights gives you a handful of
rather expensive equipment! Make sure to heal often when attacked with Gnome, and
strike back with Fenrir and Salamander. Bow-users work very well in this battle,
especially the ever-useful Hawkmen.
•
Don't let the enemy steal any of the useful treasure the defeated enemies leave behind!
The elemental wands are useful for your mages, as they raise INT a lot more than the
generic Scipplay's Staffs.
•
Battle 18: Sotavento
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Nichart, Esquire (Water, Law) (Osric's Spear, Heavy Armor, Transferring
Stone) (Ice Javelin), leaves goth
Enemies: Valkyrie (Earth, Neutral) (Trident, Chain Mail, Plumed Headband)

leaves Earth Garb
Male Priest (Earth, Neutral) (Halt Hammer, Robe of the Wise) (Heal Plus, Cleanse,
Resurrection), leaves Resurrection
•
This battle seems to be a challenge for many, but I found it quite easy. Make sure that
you don't let any of your weaker characters (Priests, Sirens, Euphaire, etc.) get ganged
up by the strong physical attackers. Persuading a few of the enemies will make this
battle much easier. I recommend persuading the Priest, as you'll need at least two
healers in Castle Osotorea. Make sure to completely deplete each enemies' HP without
starting to attack another, or else you'll find the Priest casting his Heal Plus and
restoring several characters at once. To quickly take out the enemies, combine Fluid
Magic spells with the Gnome, Fenrir, and Salamander spells you should possess by
now.
•
After the battle you can buy the useful Fluid Magic spell. Make sure to buy a few
copies for use by Witches, Warlocks, and Swordmasters for casting on your summon

Blade

leaves Dragon Gem Sword
Earth Dragon (Earth, Neutral) (Dragon Eyes), leaves Dragon Eyes
•
This battle is full of characters with high physical attack and defense, but lower
magical abilities. Due to their low spell resistance, summon spells will tear through the
enemies with ease. Abuse Fluid Magic! Taking out the dragon first will stop it from
saving up SP for its special attack. You may as well take out the Dragon Tamer as
well, as her low defense lets her be smashed in one round. Make sure you watch your
summoners though, as the enemies can take out low defense allies with just a couple
of their attacks. Also, the enemy does have healing capabilities, so try to finish off
enemies you weaken.
•
Every single enemy has a powerful rare item it leaves when defeated, so make sure to
not let any of the treasures get stolen. Also, this will probably be the first time you'll
come across Dragoons as normal enemies, so persuade one if you need a strong
physical attacker. A Dragoon will come in handy in the next couple battles!

Battle 20: Mt. Gracula
Objective: Defeat all enemies!
Enemies: Lubinnya, Gremlin (Water, Neutral) (Sherwood Bow, Hard Leather,
Amulet), leaves Sherwood Bow
Gremlin (Wind, Neutral) (Composite Bow, Hard Leather, Glass Pumpkin), leaves
Glass Pumpkin
Gremlin (Fire, Neutral) (Great Bow, Hard Leather)
Cerberus (Wind, Neutral)
Cerberus (Fire, Neutral)
Red Dragon (Fire, Neutral)
Red Dragon (Fire, Neutral)
Cockatrice (Wind, Neutral)
•
First, make sure that you do NOT KILL THE GREMLIN NAMED LUBINNYA! This
is really Lubina, Glycina's sister fairy. To get Lubina to come out of her disguise, have
Glycina end her turn standing next to Lubina. Lubina is a smart guest, and will fly to
safety and shoot arrows at the enemies. Take out the Gremlins first, as their abilities
are annoying, then concentrate on one beast at a time. Make sure you come into battle
with Purify and Cleanse spells, as all the enemies can inflict negative status effects.
•
An important note is that during the battle Lubina has a gremlin's stats, but when she
joins you after she'll have her normal fairy stats. After the little cut scene, accept her
offer to join you.

Battle 21: Castle Ostorea, West
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Margret, Swordmaster (female) (Wind, Neutral) (Notos, Peregrine Mail)
(Atropos), leaves Notos
Enemies: Duke Knight (Wind, Neutral) (Sun Mannus, Heavy Armor, Tower Shield)
(Heal Plus), leaves Sun Mannus
Duke Knight (Earth, Neutral) (Long Sword, Heavy Armor, Saint's Shield) (Acid
Vapor), leaves Saint's Shield
Warlock (Earth, Neutral) (Firedrake Sword, Fire Garb, Sacred Ring) (Slumber Mist),
leaves Sacred Ring
Male Archer (Wind, Neutral) (Great Bow, Grincer Coat, Leather Hat), leaves Grincer
Coat
Male Archer (Earth, Neutral) (Tundra Bow, Hard Leather, Leather Hat)
Hawkman (Wind, Neutral) (Halt Hammer, Chain Mail, Tower Shield)
Hawkman (Earth, Neutral) (Halt Hammer, Chain Mail, Tower Shield)
•
Margret will have a conversation with Ivanna before and after the battle, so make sure
you don't use her in the East battle. Margret herself has very high stats and the strong
Atropos special attack, but she has a tendency to do nothing during the battle. Her
troops are also strong, and her Archers are extremely annoying and powerful as well.
Take out the Duke Knights (especially the healing one!) right away, then move on to
the Hawkmen. The Warlock has a full set of rare equipment, and should definitely be
persuaded. Also, make sure to persuade the Archer with the Tundra Bow, as he doesn't
leave it behind.
•
Summon spells work okay in this battle, but make sure you only use one or two of
your summoners here. You'll want a few of those powerful spells and Fluid Magic
casters to use on the East gate as well.
•
Battle 22: Castle Ostorea, East
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Nichart, Esquire (Water, Law) (Osric's Spear, Brigandine, Snow Boots) (Ice
Javelin), leaves Osric's Spear
Leader: Lethe, Venefica (Wind, Chaos) (Wind Wand, Spell Robe, Wind Ring,
Transferring Stone) (Thunder Flare, Fluid Magic), leaves 1000 goth
Enemies: Duke Knight (Water, Neutral) (Claymore, Heavy Armor, Iron Helm) (Heal)
Duke Knight (Fire, Neutral) (Firedrake Sword, Heavy Armor, Tower Shield), leaves
Firedrake Sword
Witch (Fire, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Spell Robe, Armlet of Wisdom) (Constrain)
Siren (Water, Neutral) (Battle Fan, Cloak of Authority) (Ice Field), leaves Cloak of
Authority
Siren (Fire, Neutral) (Caldia, Cloak of Authority) (Fire Storm), leaves Caldia
•
Female Priest (Fire, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Robe of the Wise, Pointy Hat) (Heal
Plus, Cleanse, Divine Radiance), leaves Divine Radiance
•
This battle is almost entirely magic casters, strong ones at that. Lethe will power up
the Sirens and Priest with her Fluid Magic, but can also cast a pretty strong Thunder
Flare. The Sirens have area-attack magic, while the Priest has the deadly Divine
Radiance spell, lowering any character down to critical HP. The Witch's Constrain is
not a big deal, but her charm ability can be annoying. Simply advance and take out the
Duke Knights with summons and physical attacks, then split your team in two and
take out the magicians on both sides. Be sure to get rid of the Priest early! Take out
Lethe before you finally finish with Nichart. The most important thing to remember in
this battle is the Heal Plus spell, which undo the damage done by the Sirens' magic
attacks. A Dragoon or other strong physical attacker makes this battle much easier.
•
After the battle your team will join up and head inside.
•
Battle 23: Castle Ostorea, Throne Room
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Rictor, High Priest (Earth, Law) (Inca Rose, Saint's Garb, Bandana, Armlet of
Wisdom) (Ignis Fatuus, Heal), leaves 1000 goth
Enemies: Justin, Male Knight (Wind, Law) (Claymore, Brigandine, Dragon Helm)
(Heal), leaves Dragon Helm
Lara, Female Knight (Fire, Law) (Long Sword, Dragon Shield, Brigandine) (Heal),
leaves Dragon Shield
Duke Knight (Earth, Neutral) (Claymore, Heavy Armor, Iron Helm) (Cleanse)
Duke Knight (Water, Neutral) (Claymore, Heavy Armor, Iron Helm, Warp Ring),
leaves Warp Ring
Male Wizard (Earth, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Robe of the Wise) (Crag Crush)
Male Wizard (Water, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Water Garb) (Ice Field), leaves
Water Garb
Witch (Earth, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Spell Robe, Armlet of Wisdom) (Petrifying
Cloud, Fluid Magic), leaves Petrifying Cloud
•
Finally, it comes down to this...you fight against Rictor, the very powerful High Priest,
who just so happens to be my favorite special character (followed by Elrik). Also, the
two knights are special characters sort of, as they can't be persuaded and are immune
to status spells. They also will have death quotes when their HP is depleted. These
knights are in fact the two SOLDIERS that you first guested with in your verrrrry first
battle at Lutra, and are the two Knights you always see following Rictor in the cut
scenes. However, I have not found a way to get these knights to join you, and
choosing to not kill them just makes them vanish, meaning you never get their dragon
equipment. Note that Orson has some dialogue in the second round if you bring him
into this battle.
•
Rictor and his Witch like to play the little "Fluid Magic" game, allowing Rictor to
blast your party with about 8 shots of his Ignis Fatuus summon. The Witch also has
Petrifying Cloud, so take her out quickly! Rictor's two knights have Heal, so make
sure you get rid of them early as well. The Wizards will fall to about two physical
attacks, so they're no threat. Make sure you grab the Warp Ring left behind from one
of the Duke Knights! After removing all other enemies from the battle, take on Rictor.
His Heal spell can heal him for over 100 HP in one shot, and he can use it every turn
when not casting Ignis Fatuus on you. Make sure you deplete all of his HP in one
round. It's really not that hard, as his defenses aren't as good as a Knight's. Remember
that you have access to the devastating Atropos, so abuse it (unless you'll die by using
it, of course). A few notes on Rictor's summon spell: Since it is Virtue elemental, it
will do less damage to characters like Angel Knights and Priests, but a lot more to
Gremlins and Ghosts. Also, it is much better for you if he targets a large group of
characters. This way, the damage is spread out, and one character doesn't get smacked
for 160 damage.
•
Battle 24: Castle Ostorea, Crypt
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Naris, General (Fire, Law) (Bloody Cleaver, Black Armor, Firedrake Ring,
Iron Helm) (Ray of Paralysis), leaves Bloody Cleaver
Enemies: Duke Knight (Wind, Law) (Laevateinn, Brigandine) (Thunder Flare), leaves
Laevateinn
Duke Knight (Fire, Neutral) (Great Bow, Brigandine, Iron Helm)
Duke Knight (Wind, Neutral) (Trident, Brigandine, Iron Helm) (Ice Field)
Duke Knight (Fire, Neutral) (Sword of Tiamat, Brigandine, Iron Helm) (Fireball),
leaves Sword of Tiamat
Female Knight (Fire, Law) (Claymore, Heavy Armor, Iron Helm) (Lightning Bow)
Female Knight (Wind, Law) (Claymore, Heavy Armor, Iron Helm) (Heal)
Female Priest (Fire, Law) (Scripplay's Staff, Spell Robe) (Heal Plus, Cleanse)
•
Most important in this battle is to remember to not finish it before you get the Ring of
the Dead that is the buried treasure. It's in the corner right by the broken coffin.
Several enemies have special equipment, so remember to not let those items get
stolen! Persuading the Knight with Heal or the Priest might help you if you're short on
healing.
•
The Duke Knights with special swords can pack quite a punch, but are nothing
compared to Naris' attack. Consider yourself very lucky if he uses his Ray of Paralysis
instead (even luckier if said paralysis misses). Taking out the Priest and healing
Knight is a priority, but feel free to finish off a Duke Knight on your way up to smash
the healers. The Knights will all fall to summon magic spells (make sure you have
decent AGI though, or else you'll be quite miffed when half of the blasts miss). The
Priest is taken care of easily by two sword slashes or a few arrows. If you have
Atropos, it takes her out in one hit when used by a powerful sword user (Alphonse or
Ivanna work well). Once all of the lackey knights are defeated, weaken Naris with
magic or special attacks, or hit him from behind. You'll want to be VERY careful of
his counters, so try to avoid physically hitting him from the front or behind. A
combination of area-attack magic from Valkyries and other spell-throwing characters,
followed by an Atropos attack, and Naris will fall. By all means, please don't be stupid
and let your Priest get attacked by Naris. Watch out for all physically weak characters
in this battle, especially Sirens and Wizards. Witches and Fairies can dodge most
attacks, but if one attack connects, they're gone. Remember to suspend save with
intelligence!
•
Once you complete the battle (winning the Cave Exploration third Quest book), you're
done with Chapter 2 (B if you took my path)!
Walkthrough: Part 3
A few things are available right now. You can get the Zephyrus spear from Rana if you visit
there, receiving an audience with Cloeri. Traveling to Solea (Eleanor's Church) will give you
an orb, Warp Ring, or the powerful Circlet of Wisdom, depending on how you've answered
Eleanor's questions throughout the game. Try to answer both A and B to Eleanor's question
she asks, seeing what items you get. Going to Ardea will cause Lobelia the Angel Knight to
fly down and offer to join. Refuse her offer and you'll get a Seraph's Plume. Recruit her now
if you're going to keep Saia, the Lesser Daemon. Strip Lobelia of her equipment (which is
quite good!). Get her Sniper and Centurion emblems, then level her up until you're content
with her stats. Finally, use a Snapdragon scroll on her. If you don't want to kill her, simply
strip and dismiss her. If you want to KEEP Lobelia, I recommend you fighting the battle with
Saia first, recruiting and stripping him or getting his Ring of the Dead. Bringing Lobelia with
you to that battle makes you have to kill the poor daemon. Note that it is possible to kill and
then cast Necromancy of Lobelia. She will lose her special appearance and sprite, but you'll
keep her and can turn her into an Angel Knight (now generic) again.
Battle 25: Rebanada Caverns
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Rimmon, ??? (Unknown) (Bane) (Heavy Armor, Goblin Helm), leaves Goblin Helm
Enemies: Undead Male Knight (Wind, Neutral) (Long Sword, Chain Mail, Tower Shield)
Undead Male Knight (Water, Neutral) (Long Sword, Chain Mail, Tower Shield)
Ghost (Bane) (Scripplay's Staff, Spell Robe) (Enfeeble)
Ghost (Bane) (Scripplay's Staff, Spell Robe) (Nightmare)
Ghost (Bane) (Scripplay's Staff, Spell Robe) (Brain Sap)
Zombie Dragon (Bane)
Zombie Dragon (Necklace of Resist)
A deceptively easy optional battle. The only enemy in this battle you really have to worry
about is Rimmon himself. Other enemies can annoy you (Zombie Dragons' breath, Ghosts'
absorbing spells) but it is highly unlikely that they'll do serious damage. The only enemy with
anything worth persuasion is the Zombie Dragon with the Necklace of Resist. This also makes
him immune to Faith and Exorcism, but can't block Banish, Magic Barrage, or Star Tiara.
Elrik will talk before the battle and during the second round, and seems to know a LOT about
this baddy. Well, Elrik is a sort of Necromancer...of course he knows about evil and undead
beings!
The first thing is to clear away all the miscellaneous undead scattered around. Cast Fluid
Magic on characters with Faith and Exorcism to blow away the undead without fuss. Bring
Lubina and Glycina into battle so that they can use Magic Barrage, which also does decent
damage to Rimmon besides exorcising his minions. Angel Knights with Needles of Light will
also work well here, as their Banish ability will also wipe out the undead baddies.
Once all the lesser ghostly beings are out of the way and you've persuaded the Zombie
Dragon with the Necklace of Resist, take on Rimmon. The first thing to note is his inhuman
physical attack and defense. Even an Angel Knight with a Needle of Light won't cause much
damage to this horrific ogre-thing. Your main source of offense is the powerful Ignis Fatuus
summon spell, combined with Fluid Magic. If the Fairy Sisters are around with 25 SP, feel
free to Fairy's Embrace the summoner of the squirrels. Rimmon falls quickly to a few Magic
Barrages and Ignis Fatuus summons. Lightning Bow does a bit of damage, as does Magic
Missile, but it's still better to stick with the big damage abilities. Try to run away from
Rimmon (easy if his move is 3.9), as you really don't want to get attacked by him. In addition,
he has a fear effect that lowers the damage you do to him if you're within 3 spaces of him, so
keep your distance! One last note: If you have Eleanor's Star Tiara, simply persuade the
Zombie Dragon then fire it away. All undead will immediately go kaput and Rimmon will be
in serious hurt. Finish off him with an Ignis Fatuus and Magic Barrage, or Star Tiara again if
Eleanor leveled up.
Battle 26: Rebanada Caverns
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Saia, Lesser Daemon (Bane) (Earth Dragon Axe, Chain Mail, Amulet) (Enfeeble),
leaves Earth Dragon Axe
Enemies: Hawkman (Earth, Neutral) (Great Bow, Earth Leather, Iron Helm), leaves Earth
Leather
Hawkman (Fire, Neutral) (Trident, Plate Mail, Ring of Flotation), leaves Ring of Flotation
Gorgon (Earth, Neutral) (Flame Bow, Chain Mail), leaves Flame Bow
Gorgon (Fire, Neutral) (Great Bow, Chain Mail)
Gorgon (Fire, Neutral) (Rapture Rose, Chain Mail), leaves Rapture Rose
Vrtra (Earth, Chaos)
Vrtra (Fire, Chaos), leaves Snapdragon
First off, if you have Lobelia in your party she will talk to Saia (rant really) and then you
WILL kill Saia at the end of the battle, getting his Earth Axe. You can NOT get him to join
you, or get him to give you a Ring of the Dead. Thus, if you want to keep Lobelia but still
have Saia's class show up on your menu or you want that extra Lich from the Ring of the
Dead, finish this battle before recruiting Lobelia.The battle itself is full of "evil" monsters,
including three Gorgons. If they manage to get their SP saved up and you don't have
shields...prepare to have several characters petrified by their Evil Eye. However, you'll have
taken four turns by the time they get 30 SP, so you'll be in the upper position in the battle.
Remember Dragon's Eyes, Amulets, and the Pearl Necklace all stop petrify too! Again, Ignis
Fatuus will be a powerful force in this battle. Other summons work well too, namely Fenrir
and Thunderbird.
Don't let that stop you from using Gnome and Salamander though! Summons will tear
through the Vrtas with ease, due to their low AGI. Gorgons aren't very speedy either, so a
moderately fast character can smack them silly with summon spells. Physical attacks also
work well on the Gorgons, especially the bow using ones. Be sure to protect your lightly
armored characters in this battle though, because the enemy effectively uses ranged attacks
that can take down weak characters easily if they gang up on you.
After the battle, say you fight for yourself if you want Saia to join you. He has no good stuff,
just Chain Mail, Amulet, and the Enfeeble spell, but you'll get him to appear on your
character class menu and he makes a very decent snapshot sword once Centurion and Sniper
are earned for him (note that you can turn him into Virtue by using a Tome of Discipline). If
you choose to say that you fight for peace, then you'll receive another Ring of the Dead,
letting you make another defensively-powerful Lich! If your first Lich was transmigrated
from a Wizard or Siren, try make one from a Warlock for a real strong character.
Battle 27: Harmonia
Objective: Defeat the Twin Wizards!
Leader: Cirvante, Venefic (Earth, Chaos) (Kerykeion, Earth Garb, Amulet) (Fiend's Grip,
Poison Squall), leaves Fiend's Grip
Leader: Lethe, Venefica (Wind, Chaos) (Sugar Cane, Wind Garb, Amulet) (Thunder Flare,
Fluid Magic), leaves Sugar Cane
Enemies: Daemon (Bane) (Flame Flail, Heavy Armor, Ring of the Dead), leaves Ring of the
Dead
Daemon (Bane) (Boreas, Heavy Armor), leaves Boreas
Gorgon (Earth, Neutral) (Great Bow, Chain Mail), leaves Urn of Chaos
Gorgon (Wind, Neutral) (Sandstorm Bow, Chain Mail), leaves Sandstorm Bow
Giant (Earth, Neutral), leaves Snapdragon
Giant (Wind, Neutral), leaves Wind Ring
This battle can be easy or hard. If Cirvante is stupid and casts Poison Squall instead of the
deadly Fiend's Grip, consider yourself lucky. Lethe isn't as much of a threat, but she will use
Fluid Magic constantly as well as use healing items to restore 100 HP to her allies. Both
magicians have extremely high AGI and dodging stats, so try to hit them from behind if you
can. Atropos works wonders, if you can get it to hit and the swordsman is on decent terrain.
Water characters are a definite advantage on this icy landscape. A Water summon-casting
character with Fenrir is quite powerful. Ignis Fatuus is very powerful against the dark enemies
as well.
The treasures in this battle are rare indeed, and you won't want to miss out on the Snapdragon
scroll or Lich-transmigrating Ring of the Dead. Don't bother with persuasion, but if you must,
persuade one of the Gorgons or the Wind Ring wearing Giant. After the battle, advance to the
icy field of Charadrius.
Battle 28a: Charadrius
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Naris, General (Fire, Law) (Bloody Cleaver, Black Armor, Firedrake Ring, Snow
Boots) (Ray of Paralysis), leaves Bloody Cleaver
Enemies: Duke Knight (Wind, Law) (Sun Mannus, Brigandine, Thunder Shield) (Thunder
Flare), leaves Sun Mannus
Duke Knight (Fire, Neutral) (Great Bow, Brigandine, Freude Helm) (Heal), leaves Freude
Helm
Duke Knight (Fire, Neutral) (Firedrake Sword, Brigandine, Flame Shield, Iron Helm)
(Firestorm), leaves Flame Shield
Dragon Tamer (Wind, Neutral) (Estoc, Chain Mail, Snow Boots, Amulet), leaves Amulet
Female Priest (Wind, Law) (Scripplay's Staff, Robe of the Wise, Wind Ring) (Heal Plus,
Cleanse)
Female Priest (Fire, Law) (Flame Flail, Robe of the Wise, Snow Boots) (Divine Radiance,
Cleanse)
Mushus (Fire, Law) (Dragon Gem), leaves Dragon Gem
The most important treasure here is the second copy of the Divine Radiance spell. The Female
Priest who has it will not drop her weapon or the spell, so be sure to persuade her. The
Mushus or other Priest also make good candidates for persuasion.
Naris himself has very strong stats, but does have a weakness to magic. Be sure to throw your
strongest summons at him, especially Fenrir. The Duke Knights and Dragon Tamer are also
vulnerable to summon magic, but Fiend's Grip works fine against groups as well. Be sure to
take out the Priest with Healing Plus somehow, because she can undo all of your efforts! Take
advantage of your Teleport spell, casting it on a strong physical attacker like the user of
Atropos. The terrain is quite irregular, so Teleport and movement accessories come in handy,
as do flying or warping characters. Remember to defeat all the enemies first and don't let any
dropped treasure get stolen!
Battle 28b: Charadrius
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Cybil, Sorceress (Wind, Neutral) (Gypsy Queen, Robe of the Abyss, Snow Boots,
Amulet) (Thunderbird, Thunder Flare), leaves Thunderbird
Enemies: Male Angel Knight (Virtue) (Needle of Light, Chain Mail, Tower Shield), leaves
Needle of Light
Male Angel Knight (Virtue) (Needle of Light, Nathalork Mail, Thunder Shield, leaves
Nathalork Mail
Daemon (Bane) (Pike, Leviathan Mail) (Slumber Mist), leaves Leviathan Mail
Daemon (Bane) (Euros, Chain Mail), leaves Euros
Female Wizard (Water, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Spell Robe, Earth Ring) (Ice Field), leaves
Earth Ring
Witch (Wind, Neutral) (Scripplay's Staff, Spell Robe, Water Ring) (Time Flux, Fluid Magic),
leaves Time Flux
Vrtra (Water, Chaos) (Armlet of Agility)
Ah, poor Cybil is now your enemy, under the power of Shaher. Your leader will start out this
battle poisoned, so use an Antidote or Spirit Fruit on him the first turn. In case you were
wondering exactly when you'd find the wind summon spell, Cybil has it, and will use it on
you constantly with the aid of her Fluid Magic casting Witch (who also has Time Flux!). If
she manages to target only one of your allies, there is a good chance he/she will die if he/she
has a low magical defense or low agility.
The enemies aren't really strong, just averagely powerful with some decent spells and
equipment. Target one at a time with summons along with powerful special attacks or weapon
attacks. You should have no trouble at all, so just take it slow and steady.
Battle 26: Angel's Headstone, Entrance
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Mycale, Lich (Bane) (Kerykeion, Water Garb, Amulet) (Fiend's Grip, Enfeeble, Brain
Sap), leaves nothing
Enemies: Daemon (Bane) (Halt Hammer, Chain Mail, Tower Shield) (Poison Squall), leaves
Urn of Chaos
Undead Male Knight (Fire, Law) (Long Sword, Plate Mail, Snow Boots)
Undead Male Knight (Water, Law) (Long Sword, Plate Mail, Snow Boots)
Ghost (Bane) (Scripplay's Staff, Robe) (Brain Sap)
Ghost (Bane) (Scripplay's Staff, Robe) (Enfeeble)
Undead Female Wizard (Scripplay's Staff, Spell Robe) (Ice Field)
Dragon Zombie (Necklace of Resist)
The leader is a Lich, meaning he has very good defenses and a devastating area attack with
Fiend's Grip. In addition, he can drain your HP and MP with his Enfeeble and Brain Sap
spells. However, he and the Daemon are the only real challenging foes, as the rest are undead.
The Dragon Zombie is immune to Exorcism and Faith spells, but can be banished by Magic
Barrage and the Banish Angel Knight ability, as well as Eleanor's Star Tiara ability. Abuse the
power of Ignis Fatuus and try to gang up on Mycale with summons and special attacks.
Battle 26: Angel's Headstone, Hall of Corruption
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Rahouart, Daemon (Virtue) (Sanscion, Cursed Garment, Dark Ring) (Fiend's Grip,
Cursed Existence), leaves nothing
Enemies: Male Dark Angel (Bane) (Needle of Light, Chain Mail, Freude Helm) (Firestorm,
Enfeeble), leaves Angel Fruit
Female Dark Angel (Bane) (Needle of Light, Ice Chain, Armlet of Agility) (Crag Crush,
Brain Sap), leaves Healing Essence
Gorgon (Fire, Neutral) (Great Bow, Robe of Abyss)
Gorgon (Earth, Neutral) (Great Bow, Ice Chain)
Swordmaster (Fire, Neutral) (Claymore, Flame Leather) (Slumber Mist), leaves Spirit Fruit
Swordmaster (Earth, Neutral) (Claymore, Chain Mail, Armlet of Agility)
Vrtra (Fire, Chaos)
During the enemies' second turn Rahouart will talk to Saia or Lobelia if he/she is in your
party. By now your characters should be very powerful with rare equipment and spells, and
you shouldn't have trouble with the enemies. Use summons combined with Fluid Magic,
along with the strong weapons on your fighting characters. Try not to use all your strong
characters in this battle, as you still must fight in the Garden of Memories.
Try to get rid of the Gorgons before they can use their petrification ability, and remember that
the enemies can and will use healing items on their wounded.
Battle 26: Angel's Headstone, Garden of Memories
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Judecca, Female Angel Knight (Bane) (Inca Rose, Saint's Garb, Holy Crown), leaves
nothing
Enemies: Male Angel Knight (Virtue) (Needle of Light, Flame Leather, Flame Shield), leaves
Spirit Fruit
Male Angel Knight (Virtue) (Crescente, Thunder Chain)
Daemon (Bane) (Rapture Rose, Brigandine, Armlet of Agility) (Enfeeble)
Daemon (Bane) (Prox, Brigandine) (Fiend's Grip)
Warlock (Water, Neutral) (Fafnir, Brigandine, Bandana) (Ray of Paralysis), leaves Healing
Essence
Warlock (Wind, Neutral) (Claymore, Thunder Chain, Amulet) (Constrain), leaves Amulet
Giant (Water, Neutral), leaves Altar of Resurrection
During the enemies' second turn Judecca will talk to Saia or Lobelia if he/she is in your party.
In battle, follow the same strategy as in the Hall of Corruption, making good use of summons
and special attacks. Be careful of the high terrain, but this can be solved by using flight or
warp equipment, the Teleport spell, or just using flying or warping characters (like Angel
Knights and Hawkmen). Persuade the Male Angel Knight with the Crescente to get the use of
the strongest bow in the game for the next few battles, perfect for a character with Lachesis.
Battle 26: Angel's Headstone, Hall of Conviction
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Shaher, Fallen Angel (Virtue) (Anbicion+, Rune Plate, Seraph's Plume) (Ice
Requiem, Anbicion, Decent), leaves Anbicion
Enemies: Cirvante, Male Dark Angel (Bane) (Crescente, Cloak of Oath, Amulet) (Constrain,
Enfeeble), leaves
Lethe, Female Dark Angel (Bane) (Answerer, Robe of Abyss, Amulet) (Fiend's Grip,
Enfeeble), leaves Spirit Fruit
Daemon (Bane) (Volcaetus, Flame Leather, Ring of Flight) (Fiend's Grip), leaves Orb
Daemon (Bane) (Frozen Axe, Phoenix Mail), leaves Crown of Intellect
Daemon (Bane) (Flame Flail, Phoenix Mail) (Nightmare), leaves Revive Stone
Male Angel Knight (Virtue) (Needle of Light, Ice Chain, Armlet of Agility), leaves Healing
Essence
Female Angel Knight (Virtue) (Trident, Ice Chain, Armlet of Wisdom), leaves Healing Salve
During the battle, Shaher will talk to certain special characters during the battle. He will
automatically talk to Alphonse, Eleanor, Rictor, Cybil, and Aerial. If Orson, Shiven, Ivanna,
Lobelia, or Saia attacks him physically, he'll talk to them.
Shaher's special attacks are quite strong, especially his Ice Requiem attack, which is very
annoying when it put several characters to sleep. His allies are moderately strong, especially
Cirvante and Lethe, but they will fall to the power of superior attacks and summon spells. Use
Fiend's Grip on the Virtue enemies and Ignis Fatuus on the Bane enemies. Try to take out at
least Cirvante and Lethe before you defeat Shaher. You vitally need to have your characters
healed before you deal the final blow, as your current party will be swept to the final boss
battle.
Battle 27: Nether Region
Objective: Defeat the Leader!
Leader: Shaher (Bane) (no equipment)
Enemies: Dark Stalker (Bane) (Sword of Tiamat, Cursed Garment, Dark Ring)
Dark Stalker (Bane) (Yu-giri, Peregrine Mail, Armlet of Agility)
Hell Gigantes (Warp Ring)
Hell Gigantes (Armlet of Wisdom)
First note that the lackey dark enemies leave behind no treasures. Be sure to have the
Longicolnis, having someone stab Shaher with it so you can actually do some damage.
Enfeeble is a VERY good spell to use on him, doing a constant 62 damage for me when used
by Saia. Holy weapons do a bit of damage, but only Snapdragon weapons do any real hurt.
Ignis Fatuus is the best summon, but use all summons for more damage. Try to have several
characters with Enfeeble to take out Shaher faster, and remember the Bloody Cleaver has an
"Enfeeble" effect.
My party was...
•
Alphonse, Swordmaster: uses Time Flux on Saia (or Rictor, if lesser baddies need to
be hit with Divine Radiance)
•
Rictor, High Priest: equipped with Lobelia snapdragon. Uses Divine Radiance on
lesser baddies or Ignis Fatuus on Shaher. Also has Heal Plus and Cleanse.
•
Elrik, Summoner: Uses Gnome or Summon Golem on Shaher. Also has Crag Crush.
•
Eleanor, Valkyrie: Equipped with Longicolnis and INT-raising stuff (Circlet of
Wisdom), along with Pearl Necklace. Pokes Shaher with Longicolnis then runs a bit
and casts Ice Field.
•
Saia, Lesser Daemon: Equipped with Blood Cleaver for decent counters. Attacks
Shaher every turn twice with Enfeeble.
•
Kamui, Swordmaster: Equipped with Fluid Magic, casts it on mages and Saia. Uses
physical attacks on lesser enemies or uses healing/mp-restoring items.
•
Orson: Equipped with Crescente. Uses Lachesis every turn on Shaher. (note: has a
Fireseal to make up for his poor defense)
•
Ivanna: Uses Atropos on lesser baddies and uses healing/mp-restoring items.
•
Swift, Priest: Uses Heal Plus every turn to heal damaged allies. Can also use Cleanse
and Resurrection.
•
Abel, Angel Knight: Uses Clotho on Shaher every turn. Can also heal if vitally needed
with Sacred Ring.
The most damage was done by Saia...over 120 damage per round, thanks to Time Flux.
Enfeeble is INFINITELY useful against the big bad boss. The lesser baddies were stupid and
attacked my physical attackers, so they got majorly countered. Taking out several each round
stopped Shaher from attacking, as he summoned new baddies.
Hints and Tips
Deneb
Recruit a female soldier at any town and name her Deneb. Her element will always be Fire,
and she will always be Chaos aligned. I recommend getting her the Centurion and Sniper
Emblems right away, and have her recruit a male character in a random battle to get the Evil
Gossip emblem she needs. In a couple levels she can become a Ninja. Level her up until she
can become a Wizard (using a Sorcerer's Cup and Crowns of Intellect as needed). Level her
up as a Wizard until she meets the requirements for Witch (38 MP, 35 INT). Change her to a
Witch, and VOILA! You have the legendary Deneb in your party! Take her to Port
Scabellum to discover a secret shop with candy equipment!
Centurion and Sniper Emblems
I recommend getting these for ALL your characters, except forgo getting Centurion for your
Cleric if you want him/her to become a Priest. To get Sniper, simply equip a Small Bow and
shoot at an ally about 5 or so times in training. You'll then get 10 points added to AGI! To
get Centurion, you must have 1 ally deal the final blow to ALL enemies that are defeated
(persuaded enemies do not count). If you manage to have 1 character finish off every enemy
(spells, physical hits, or even counters), they'll earn Centurion, getting an infinitely useful 20
points added to STR!
Dragon Class Changes
For some strange reason, dragons upgrade to their higher classes IN battle. They can also
change classes by changing their elements in battle (using Mirror of the Gods) and change
higher classes by changing their alignment (using Urn of Chaos or Tome of Discipline). For
example, if you have Cybil (Wind) use a Mirror of the Gods on a Red Dragon (Fire), it will
turn into a Thunder Dragon! If you use a Tome of Discipline on a Vrtra, it will become a
Naga. And if you use another Tome of Disciple on the Neutral-aligned Naga, it will become a
Mushus! All of this takes place in battle or training. Once they met the requirements for one
of the higher classes, upon level up or use of a stat raising item, the dragon will immediately
upgrade at the end of its turn.
Special Buried Treasures
Inside each battlefield (or most of the fields anyways) there is buried treasure. One of these
treasures is a special item, and that particular treasure spot will not give a random item like
the others will. Following is a small list of the special treasures I have found in each stage.
Lutra: Glass Pumpkin
Scabellum: Dragon Shield
Vespa: Glass Pumpkin
Formido: Dragon Gem Sword
Ardea: (unknown)
Urodela: Hyacinth Fan
Bison: (unknown)
Sufrir: Ice Wand
Arena: (unknown)
Rana: (unknown)
Solea: (unknown)
Quest Mode Items
Here's a COMPLETE list of all the items that can be gotten from Quest Mode if you choose
"Defeat the Leader". Choosing "Defeat all enemies" yields slightly different gains, basically
two of the next lowest prize you'd get if you chose "Leader" and one of the prize level below
that.

Star Tiara
Star Tiara is Eleanor's special technique. To get it, simply raise Eleanor's base INT (without
equipment boosting) to 170. After that, simply win the battle, training, or level her up. The
screen message will say that she "recalled Star Tiara". The description for it is: "Eleanor's
special technique. 60 MP. Gathers the light of the stars to damage foes and banish the undead.
The caster forgets this spell after use". To remember the spell again, simply level Eleanor up,
win a battle, or have her team win in a training battle. This Virtue-elemental spell hits ALL
enemies on the entire screen for a large amount of damage, and is very useful for vaporizing
any pesky undead. To get this ability, level Eleanor up as a Siren or Priest and throw any
spare Crowns of Intellect you have at her.
Magic Barrage
Magic Barrage is Glycinia and Lubina's secret dual technique. To use it is quite simple, and
they don't have to be at any specific level. Simply have the fairies right next to each other
(one can be in front of or behind the other, but there MUST be no space between them), and
make sure that neither has acted yet. The ability "Magic Barrage" will show up in either
fairies' ability list when selected. Once used, both fairies will attack at once, and then both
will end their turns. The attack's description is: "Attack (Virtue), RNG 7, AOE 5. Fairy sisters'
combo. Sacred light damages foes and banishes undead (fairies take damage)." This ability
gets stronger with the more INT the fairies have. It does extremely good damage, exorcises
undead, and hits 5 panels. Plus, it costs no SP! However, it will take away half of the current
HP of both fairies. For example, if they have 100 HP, it'll take away 50. If they have 50, it
will take away 25.
Equipment Sets
There are four sets of equipment that give special abilities when all the pieces are worn by one
ally. The sets are:
Candy Set: Restores about 10% (seems to be around 25) HP per turn
-Sugar Cane
-Chocolate Shield
-Candy Armor
-Candy Helm
Dragon Set: Makes wearer have the characteristics of a dragon, and lets him/her/it cast a
breath attack of their element. Bane and Virtue characters use Thunder Breath.
-Dragon Shield
-Dragon Armor
-Dragon Helm
-Dragon Eyes
Enchanted Hunting Wares Set: Increases the movement range of the character by about two,
as well as giving you good accuracy. A perfect set for Archers.
-Sherwood Bow
-Grincer Coat
-Sherwood Hat
-Forest Boots
Divine Armaments Set: Grants you full immunity to the Bane element. This means Bane
spells/abilities (Fiend's Grip, Enfeeble, Fairy's Kiss, etc.) and also Bane weapons (Bloody
Cleaver, Answerer, etc.) are all completely ineffective on you! Give this set to a strong Knight
(Ivanna) or an Angel Knight.
-Oracion
-Saint's Shield
-Southern Cross
-Freude Helm
Elemental and Alignment Changing
To change alignment, you must use an Urn of Chaos or Tome of Discipline. Tomes of
Disciple move you towards Law (Chaos to Neutral to Law), while Urns of Chaos move you
towards Chaos (Law to Neutral to Chaos). To change normal elements of Wind, Fire, Water,
and Earth, have a character of the element you wish to change a character into use a Mirror of
the Gods. For example, if your Alphonse is Fire, and you want him to be Earth, have Ivanna
(who is Earth elemental) use a Mirror of the Gods on him. A Mirror of the Gods can NOT
transfer the elements of Bane and Virtue though. However, you can make characters who are
Bane turn into Virtue by using a Tome of Discipline on them or turn a Virtue character into
Bane by using an Urn of Chaos. Note that even though you can turn an Angel Knight into
Bane, they do not become Dark Angels. However, the Bane elemental Angel Knight does get
a bonus when using Bane weapons, like the Answerer.
Super Dragoon
Really, this trick could be used on anyone, but I find it works nicely with generic Dragoons.
First, fight a battle with an enemy Dragoon (that is not the leader...no Karcist). Pick the
Dragoon you want (check out the minor stat differences), and get rid of most of the other
enemies. Weaken and persuade the Dragoon you want, using a character with Arbitration, or
even better, a Valkyrie or Dragon Tamer with Arbitration. Now, the Dragoon with join you!
Enemy Dragoons come with exceptionally high STR, and you're going to make him even
more powerful! After, the battle, give the Dragoon a strong weapon of his element or a strong
sword or spear (I gave my Water Dragoon a Hammer of Tears, because Eleanor has the
Osric's Spear and Alphonse and my Swordmaster had the Ice Swords). Take the Dragoon into
training and put him up against a REALLY weak ally, like a Fairy, with a character that can
cast Molten Blade and Ray of Paralysis or Slumber Mist. Place the weak ally (from hereon
now known as bait) in the water, with the Dragoon on a solid piece of dirt or other terrain that
raises his element. Have the character with Molten Blade cast it on the Dragoon. Next turn,
have the bait turn around so its back is to the Dragoon. Check the Dragoons hit percentage
now. If it's way too low, have him wait and have you support spell character cast Slumber
Mist or Ray of Paralysis on the bait. Once it connects, have the Dragoon (make sure he still
has Molten Blade) smash the poor bait. It should do well over 200 damage (getting you War
God) and kill the bait in one hit (getting you Berserk). Get the Dragoon Sniper next, as that's
an easy plus 10 AGI. Now, take him into battle and have him finish off all the enemies,
getting you Centurion. Your Dragoon, if around level 20, should now have at least 200 STR!
To balance out this power, his defense to magic and magic casting ability is practically null.
Make sure you give him armor of his element to boost his spell resist! The only things you
have to be careful of are Fiend's Grip and enemies with summon spells. However, as these
types of enemies are few, and can still be smashed flat by the powerful Dragoon...don't worry
about this guy doing fast. MAKE SURE TO LEVEL HIM UP AS HIS DRAGOON CLASS!
He gets the best STR growth out of all the male classes, so keep him like this. By the way, I
used a level 4 Gremlin as my bait...recruited the guy in the Vespa Hill battle to save Glycinia.
Yes, I never used him once, kept him all this time, and he's very useful for this purpose!
