Decoder #8 - When you visit the Dock Colony for the
first time, a woman in front of the clinic tells you of
a Fish Detector that her husband lost. Go to the Kukai
Foundation's cleaning place and inspect the tuxedo to
find the Fish Detector. Talk to the girl in the Iron Man
bar, sitting at the lower left table. She says that she
lost an important ring and asks you to find it. Go to
the Private Beach and go in the water where the fish
show up on the radar screen. Run up to every fish and
press Circle. Sometimes you will get an item, and
sometimes you will not. You
can get a Med Kit, a Speed Stim, and the Engagement
Ring. If you return to the beach on any return trips,
the Med Kit, and Speed Stim will be there again. Give
the ring back to the girl in the bar. She will give you
the Decoder #8 to open the red door.
Destroying objects - After receiving an e-mail about the
"vapourizer plug-in". press Square on an object with
target to destroy them. When multiple objects are
nearby, you can switch targets by pressing L1 or R1.
Defeating Zolfo and the two Mecurio - Since Zolfo will
not attack until both Mecurio are out, take out the
Mecurio as Zolfo will use his shields.. If you use
Momo's Sleep Ether attack (to the right of life shot),
it will put one of the Mecurio to sleep. When it is
Zolfo's turn, he will attack his own Mecurios and
reprimand them for sleeping. This should hurt them for
at least 100. Attack once or guard with Ziggy. When you
have the AP, attack the one that is awake (if any).
Zolfo becomes quite easy when they are both gone; just
heal and attack as usual.
Easy cash - Get the Casino Card from the Durandal's
Casino (north and east of Shione's room on the Durandal).
Then, play Poker. Start with 100 coins (900 bucks) and
play level 1 until you get about 200. Then, move
straight to level 3 until you get about 700. Then, play
level 4. The way to always beat the house is as follows.
Always hold a pair or any other scoring combo. After you
win, always do double or nothing. If the number is
greater than 7 bet low, if the number is 8 it is your
choice, and if the number is 9 or above it is best to go
low. After
accumulating about 45000 coins, get 99 starter decks of
cards and sell them for 20,000. It takes a total of two
hours to make about 100,000 (and all the prizes and
art.)
Easy Tech, Skill, and Ether points - Use the following
trick in the very beginning of the game for easy Tech,
Skill, and Ether points. However, it can only be done
with Shion. Go to the Gear hanger. Talk to the man that
is working on a Gear. He will ask if you want to do a
simulation. Say "Yes" and go into battle Winning this
battle will earn you 16 to 180 points depending on if
you got a x2, x4, or x10.
Easy leveling - Enter a battle where you know the
character you wish to level up is capable of taking on
the enemy(s). It may be helpful to move that character
into the back row before the battle begins, as you want
the other two characters in the front to intentionally
be killed. When this is done, move your character to be
leveled up back into the front row and defeat the
enemies. By doing this, you do not have to share the
EXP, Tech, Skill, or Ether points.
Hazardous Area Map - On board the Elsa, you will see the
pilot walking around in Hangar 1 (A.G.W.S. hangar),
looking for a map. He does not give any concrete
details, except to look everywhere, and that the captain
wants it. To get the map, speak with the captain on the
bridge. He will give it to you to take to the pilot.
In-game reset - Hold L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 + Start + Select
during game play.
Keeping Shion safe during the Gnosis attack - During the
Gnosis attack on the Starship Woglinde at Shion's second
encounter with the Gnosis, as they chase her she must
run through the partition and quickly press the red
switch on the other side to close it to stop the Gnosis
from touching her. As this is difficult to do, there is
a second, easier option. Have Shion keep running. Ignore
and pass both red switches. Go through the open door
into the empty room a few steps further down the
hallway. Wait a few seconds in the room. The Gnosis will
lose
track of Shion. Then, give up and return to where they
were before the chase. The coast will be clear and Shion
can go safely to her next stop.
Game completion data - Once you complete Xenosaga -
Episode 1, after the ending credits roll, the game will
ask if you want to save. Answer "Yes" and the game
completion data will be saved. Although you cannot load
this saved game data with the Episode 1 game disc, do
not delete it. It is likely that this game completion
data will be used to load your characters stats into
Xenosaga - Episode 2.
Playing mini-games - To
play mini-games, you must have the game passport. You
can get them by talking to certain people in the game.
Once you have the passport, go to a save point
with "EVS" above it. Once there, you go to the menu and
select key-item. Choose the game passport you want to
play and press Action.
Momo's first transformation - Go to the Cathedral Ship
(inside the Gnosis). When you get to the stairs to go up
(not the ladder), have Momo as your lead character and
search near the boxes. It should be there.
Slide Deck Key - When you are onboard the Elsa, before
the ship is attacked, you can speak to the repair robot
in the A.G.W.S. hangar. He mentions that he is the
hardest worker, and that while he was cleaning one of
the cabins he lost his key to the Slide Deck. The key
can be found on the couch in the lounge of Cabin 2 (the
southern-most cabin).
Skip scenes - Whenever you are viewing a previously
watched scene, press Start then press Triangle. You will
then skip the entire scene until you are in quest mode
again.
