Note: This game is
also know as: Wild Arms Advanced 3rd
Easy money - When you get to Serpent's Coil, the enemy
there will always be Jells and always appear in numbers
of three or more. They are immune to physical attacks.
When you are at level 10 or greater, use only elemental
Arcanas. After the battle, notice that you will get
Arcana Gems exactly according to the Arcana used to kill
the Jells. Every battle can result in three or more
Arcana Gems. Each gem can be sold it for 100 Gellas.
Every enemy you kill using an Arcana is bound to give
away Arcana gems.
Gems - In the Fallen Sanctuary, defeat Pilbugs with
Arcana to get Earth, Wind, Fire, and Ice gems which can
be used in battle, or sold for 100 gella.
View character portraits - During any normal dialog,
press select to view the portrait of the character who
is talking.
Alternate song: Go to save the game and press
Circle(2). You will be asked if you want to continue
playing. Answer "Yes" and when the screen turns black
briefly, press L2 + L1 + R2 + R1 + Circle + Square + X +
Triangle. Instead of someone singing, the song will have
someone whistling.
Japanese introduction song: Press L2 + R2 + L1 +
R1 + Triangle + Circle + Square + X while the game is
loading. The song that plays during this time will now
be in Japanese.
Alternate opening sequences: As you progress
through the game the FMV sequences that plays when you
load a game changes somewhat, reflecting where you are
in the game. For example, Malik Leehalt and Melody do
not appear the first time you see it; after encountering
them they eventually show up. You will also hear the
opening song in Japanese at one point. Also look for
Siegfried to make a very brief appearance, as well as
the prophets in demon form.
To get gems (which in some cases, are useful), destroy
an enemy with any Elemental Arcana or Guardians. At the
end of the battle, you should get an amount of Arcana
Gems equal to the number of enemies you defeated with
that Elemental Arcana. Note: Using Virginia's Mystic and
an Arcana Gem could multiply the gem used, only if the
enemies are defeated.
When fighting in the Abyss, you can find an enemy called
Gella Eater. You have two rounds to kill him or it will
run with your money. The more money you have, the more
he takes from you. Let them get the money in the first
round, cast Gella Card and you will get your money back
doubled. However, make sure you can kill them. They have
about 3000 HP.
Easy experience: Note: This trick requires a
controller with an auto-fire feature. You must have the
horses. Go to the world map and get on the horse. Set
the battles for auto-fight. Set X to auto-fire and keep
it held. The horse will twitch quickly, but it will
eventually get you into a battle. The rest will be taken
care of automatically. Leave the system on for free
money and experience. Make sure you pick an area where
you can easily defeat the enemies, or you may find your
party dead when you return to the game. If you set it
for "Balanced Attack", your characters will also use
magic and your MTC will raise a bit. Note: Due to the
relative ease of the game, it appears that the
developers made it difficult to gain levels. Most
enemies on the world map that can be fought in this
manner only give about 200 to 300 experience points. It
requires large amounts of experience to gain levels
after you reach 50. After level 50, this trick is only
useful for gathering large amounts of money for your
ARMs and getting kills with Arcana to increase MTC.
Defeat five Telepath Towers and you will fight a
Creeping Chaos (30,000 HP). It will use a move called
Arc En Circl, which puts almost every status aliment on
everyone in your party. You will get 10,000 experience
points for defeat it. After you defeat it, you can
battle it all around Filigia.
When you fight the Kraken in Little Twister, make sure
everyone is equipped with Water Ward and have it maxed
out. When you enter the battle, use Mystic on a Lucky
Card but do not attack. Have everyone defend. Even
though the Kracken has a larg amount of HP, he needs to
cast Maelstrom at least 79 times for you to to get the
maximum experience points (about 995,000) from the
battle. Note this battle will take about an hour for the
maximum, but it will give ten or more levels depending
on you pre-battle levels.
As soon as you can, buy at least three Call Whistles
from the travelling salesmen. In Clairborne after you
buy the horses, go back to Midland (where the secret
garden is located. Call your horse and jump over the
crevice to the north. You must be at least level 10 to
fight the monsters here, but they are extremely weak to
fire. Equip Virginia Or gallow with Fiery Rage Medium
and summon at the very start.. It will not kill them
immediately until you are at about level 17 or 18, but
it should do enough damage to kill them with ARMs. Also,
they drop Heart Leaf which will prevent their own status
ailment. Make sure you equip this and max it out. After
that it should be no problem to level up.
One hit kills: As soon as you can, equip the
Bunker Cannon II on the Sandcraft. When in battle,
always use the force ability "Fire all ammo at once".
You should be able to kill all monsters in one hit.
Defeating the roped woman: When you are fighting
the roped woman you will notice she kills Clive first.
If you keep reviving him, she will only go after him.
This makes it easier to fight her.
Avoiding battles: When a white exclamation mark
appears over your head, press Circle to avoid the
battle. If you are near an object that you can use
(switch, lever, wheel, etc.) use it, or walk through a
door and you will avoid the battle without using any MTC
points.
Easy battles: When you get the Sandcraft, you will
fight some very difficult enemies in the Inner Sea. To
make these easier, gather 50 Dragon Fossils by fighting
in Fortune Gear. Then, upgrade your Sandcraft weapon to
the Ark Smasher. Always use the "Fire All Ammo At Once"
Force ability to easily take them down.
When you get your characters to about level 25 to 30,
and you get in your Sandcraft, you start the battle with
25 FP. Put Virginia as gunner, as she has the highest
RFX. Go to Jolly Roger, and buy the Ark Smasher with 50
Dragon Fossils. When you get into battle in the
Sandcraft, she gets the first turn. Fire all the ammo,
and the battle will be over in one shot. The monster
will never get a turn
(including Balal Quo Naga). This takes some time, but
you can build up large amounts of Gella and experience
this way.
After you get the last four guardians, put Lust Jaw on
Virginia and fill in "Weakness" where you spend your
points to adjust attributes. Then, anytime you get in a
battle, have her use "Mystic" and an elemental gem.
(first find out with Analyze what the elemental weakness
of the monster is). When you use that gem, it does
double damage, plus gives her chain attack credit. This
works very well in the Abyss, as there are only five or
six different types of monsters to fight. Since she goes
first each time, usually you can finish a battle in one
turn. This works best against groups of monsters.
Difficult battles: To fight some tough Bosses, go
to Green Lodge (area with Yagdrassil) or Ka Dingel. Find
the black sphere object to fight a Boss. Do this on all
the black spheres you encounter, and on the well in
Little Twister.
Make animal jump in town: Using any character's
tool, get directly next to an animal (horse, dog, cat,
chicken, etc.) in town. Each of them will do something
different.
Converting animals to items: Use the tool Radar
(Jet) to detect a suspicious animal in town (dog,
chicken, etc.). Then, use the tool Change Crest
(Virginia) to change that animal to an item.
Heal Berries: If you are running low on Heal
Berries, go to the Fallen Sanctuary and use elemental
spells of opposing elements (Ice and Fire, Thunder and
Water, Wind and Earth). Along with getting multiple Gems
(which can be sold for 100 gold each), you will also get
Heal Berries or Gimel Coins.
Secret Garden: After defeating the Ring Keeper
(the Boss in the Decaying Labyrinth), talk to the girl.
When you plant something normally, you would usually
leave and wait awhile after progressing into the game.
In fact, if you leave the Secret Garden and fight one or
two battles, when you go back they will be in the next
stage. Keep this up and you should max out your Heal
Berries, Full Carrots, etc. in no time.
Fireworks show: Go to the Little Rock Inn and have
Gallows in the lead. Stay a day and when you get
control, just sit there. In about two minutes you should
see a fireworks show.
Press Triangle to go to the menu, then go to "Settings"
and turn on the screen saver. Then, leave the menu
things to where you can walk around. Stand still for a
few minutes to activate the screensaver. It looks like a
fireworks show and is nothing like the screensaver from
the first Wild Arms.
Wild Arms reference: The Tear Drop is a crystal
that was used to power a floating town/ship (mentioned
in the area where Clive gets the grappling hook). It is
also the same tool that is used by Cecile in the
original Wild Arms.
Wrong article: Start a new game and go to Gallow's
story. He will talk, then the game will show the
newspaper. On it will be the Ark Skeptor, but the
article will instead be about the "call whistle".
