Dressing Room:- To unlock the Dressing Room, complete all areas and
quests under the normal difficulty setting.
If you have 10,000 Meseta in your inventory, when you load your character
you will be allowed to enter the dressing room to change your head
(Android only), hair color, costume color, and more. However, you cannot
change the proportions or name of your character.
Hard difficulty setting:- Successfully complete either episode under the
normal difficulty setting to unlock the hard difficulty setting for both
episodes.
Note: Get to level 20 or higher to unlock the hard difficulty setting in
online mode.
Very hard difficulty setting:- Successfully complete either episode under
the hard difficulty setting to unlock the very hard difficulty setting for
both episodes.
Note: Get to level 40 or higher to unlock the very hard difficulty setting
in online mode.
Ultimate difficulty setting:- Successfully complete either episode under
the very hard difficulty setting to unlock the ultimate difficulty setting
for both episodes.
Note: Get to level 80 or higher to unlock the ultimate difficulty setting
in online mode.
FMV sequences:- To view two FMV sequences (one when you create a
character and one new sequence), remain idle at the "Press Start" screen.
After the background pulses four times, one of the FMV sequences will
start.
Control loading screen:- While going online, move the Left Analog-stick
to move the light around the screen. When entering an area, move the Left
Analog-stick to turn the tunnel or the Right Analog-stick to change the
tunnel's speed.
Avoid walking near traps and enemies:- Normally, you cannot run when near
a trap or enemy. To avoid this, press Start to display the main menu. You
may now run again.
Avoid mine field damage:- When in a level with a trap mine field, hold
Start and run through. You will not get hurt.
Fun with traps:- If you hate waiting around for Rappys to get back up and
you are an Android, set a fire/explosion trap by them. Run to the other
side of the area. As soon as they get up to run, the trap will go off and
you can grab the items.
If you are being attacked by multiple enemies, herd them into a group then
run away from them. When you are about 10 to 15 feet away from them, set a
trap and turn back towards the enemy, so that the trap is between you and
the group. Fire a shot at the trap to set it off (like the preset traps in
most levels). The effect of your trap will still go off, but you will have
a bit more control over it.
Slip through blocked and laser blocked doors:- This trick requires a
Saber, Brand, or no weapon at all. Go to a corner of a blocked or a laser
blocked door. Face the corner, then start attacking. Keep doing this, and
you will eventually slip through the door. This trick is useful for
getting to new places early.
Note: This trick is difficult to execute.
Ice break:- When you are frozen by an enemy, trap, or Boss, move the
Analog-stick Up and Down, or Left to Right very rapidly to break free of
the ice. This works very well when fighting Bosses with Ice Element
attacks such as the Gol Dragon or Sil Dragon. This trick also works in
battle mode.
Unlimited number of MAGs:- Note: At least two controllers are required
for this trick. Make multiple characters and enter cooperative mode. Have
one character drop his or her MAG and the other pick it up. Go back and
recreate the person who dropped the MAG and go through the process again
until you get as many as desired.
Note: You can also do this for Meseta.
Specialized MAGs:- Being able to equip Busters to level 1 Force and have
them learn Megid is simple if you have specialized MAGs. Put levels of
only one type on a MAG and when equipped, it raises that stat by 400.
Every stat level on a MAG puts up the corresponding stat by 2 points.
Since all MAGs start with 5 levels on Defense, it is the only stat that
can truly be maxed.
Duplicating items:- Note: This will only work in the online version of
the game. Basically, drop the item to be duplicated before the second save
happens, then lag the save. To lag the save, modem adapter users can pick
up the phone while the save is occurring. Try doing this with another
character on a different memory card; every time you do this, you run the
risk of having your character data erased. Then, pull out the memory card
and quit.
Getting Al or Pal Rappies to appear:- You must have access to the second
tier of quests in order to do this. Select the Fake In Yellow quest and go
through the first three areas with Rappies, killing them off. Once in the
fourth area with Rappies (where you meet the doctor in the Rappy costume
for the second time), there should be a huge amount of Rappies dropping
down. Drop a Telepipe and examine them all to see if any of them is an Al
(or a Pal under the ultimate difficulty setting) Rappy. If not, enter the
pipe to town then quickly return to the area. The Rappies will drop again.
Repeat this procedure until eventually one of the normal Rappies turns out
to be a rare Rappy. It is recommended that you have the ability to use
Ryuker when doing this, as it is cheaper then going back and forward to
pay for Telepipes (350 each).
Before the room that you usually teleport to in Forest 1 without the
quests, there will be three Rag Rappies that drop down. If you are
level 13+, one of them can turn into an Al Rappy (a Blue Rag Rappy).
Kireek's Soul Eater:- You can do this only once per difficulty setting.
To get Kireeks' Soul Eater, you need to play "Dr. Osto's Research" quest.
Then, after you get the information at the end, talk to Sue. If she asks
your name, say "No". After you finish that quest, go to the "Unsealed
Door" quest. You will meet Sue again. Talk to her and listen to what she
says. Then, complete the quest. Next, go to the Waterfall Tears. After
defeating Anna, continue on to Cave 2 (same quest) and you will eventually
meet Kireek. He will greet you, then you will have to fight him. After you
defeat him, go to the "Black Paper" quest where he will try a rematch in
Cave 1 of this quest. Note: You are in the dark in this battle. When you
defeat Kireek in that battle, you will meet him again in the "From the
Depths" quest. In that quest after you separate from Ash, go back to Ruins
2 (in this quest) and go as far west you can. You will confront Kireek for
the final time. It is recommended that you equip some armor, shields,
units that can withstand Dark/Draw/Shadow or whatever that weapon is made
out of, or use Razonde (or Zonde, if that is all you have). When you
defeat him you get to keep his weapon for your accomplishment.
Defeating Dubchics:- Notice that they return to life. After killing a
Dubchic, a brown orb with yellow rings around it should fall to the ground
somewhere in that area. Destroy it and all the Dubchics will be destroyed.
Defeating Garanz:- When you are in Mine 2, you will probably encounter a
Garanz. When he shoots his missile, run behind him and he will eventually
kill himself. Note: You can get extra experience when this happens.
Defeating Gol Dragon:- You should be about level 15 if you are a Hunter
and have Resta, an Autogun, and Monofluids to restore your MP. When
starting the fight, keep shooting at any part of his body. When he is up
in the air and is about to land, get away from him or the rising floor
will hurt you. His first attack on the ground should be an elemental
breath attack. It consists of a fire breath (the weakest one), an ice
breath which freezes you (the most dangerous as you can easily die while
you are frozen), and a lightning breath which paralyzes you for a short
while. When he does the breath attack, walk towards him until you are
under his attack and shoot at one of his body parts. He should eventually
take flight again. If he starts spinning in the air, then he is using his
elemental ball attack. Like the breath, it consists of fire, ice (still
the most dangerous), and lightning. During this time, try to evade as many
as you can and heal if needed. After this, he will land again. Keep
repeating the previous steps until he roars and goes underground. When he
re-appears, there will be two of him. Fortunately, one of them is a mirage
but it can still hurt you. You can tell if one is a mirage by killing it.
When a mirage dies, you will see a bluish flash and it will disappear. The
mirages also have a lot less HP. If you kill a mirage, the real one will
be by itself again. Just keep attacking and evading as best as you can
until it is dead.
Defeating Pofuilly Slimes:- It takes a long time to kill a Pofuilly
Slime. Instead of having to hit it once waiting for it to pop up again,
use a paralyzing or freezing weapon.
Defeating Volt Opt:- Volt Opt is more difficult than in the Dreamcast
version of the game. If you are an Android, you will get shorted about 8
out of 10 times that he shocks you in his first form. Kill the center
thing that hangs off the ceiling. Once that is down, shocks stop occurring
more often. Shoot Volt Opt in the monitors when you see him. When the
poles appear from the ground, find the red pole and take it out. If not,
you will get a nasty shock that could short you out for awhile. Repeat
these steps with 10 Monomates and 10 Dimates and you should be fine. Once
his first form is done, he will become a huge red robot and have multiple
attacks (but no more shocking). He usually starts by turning his missile
pods towards you, and fires them after three seconds. You can avoid the
missile by running around Volt Opt (get a 3-hit combo in before he fires
them, then run). He will then turn his laser sights on you. Do another
3-hit combo and run. Keep running and when you hear him powering up, he
will drop a huge pole on you. He does this three times. Yet again, you can
avoid this by running. He will chase you with the laser sights twice.
After that, he will heal himself by about 40. During this time, attack him
heavily. He will then switch over to his front and shoot a floating ball
at you. Do not stop running or you will be imprisoned in dirt wall while
he charges up to do his ultimate attack. If you get hit with this ball in
multi-player or online mode, call someone over to. They can get you out by
attacking the dirt walls.
Repeat this to defeat him and get good experience.
Cheap kills:- If you are having trouble in a room, try running out of it
and go back in. Some monsters will probably go into a dormant mode and
allow you to get off a hit or two before they retaliate. This is
especially useful against Garanz.
Refill health:- If you are a robot in the game, you can refill your
health after receiving damage from an enemy. Find a safe place to rest and
remain in that spot for a least a minute. Your health meter will go up a
little bit at a time.
If you are playing as a Froce or a Newman, you have the ability to refill
your TP. Find a safe place and wait for it to go up.
If your short on money or just do not want to pay the 10 Meseta to heal,
go to the Hunter's Guild. Once there, talk to the person behind the
counter. Then choose and start any mission. Once the mission is loaded,
your HP/TP are fully healed. Talk to the person behind the counter again,
and choose to cancel the mission. Note: This is useful if you want to do
an area again, such as the Forests, without having to reset the game. Once
you are ready, talk to the person at the Hunter's Guild that is behind the
counter. Choose "Load", then quit any mission and all areas will have been
reset.
Fighting invisible enemies:- Use the environment to help you. Enemies
such as Sinow Zoa can easily be spotted by their reflections on glass or
water, as well as the targeting system. However, that can be unreliable at
times.
Dodging De Rol Le's Energy Balls:- After De Rol Le has shot his timed
mines onto the raft, go to the upper right hand corner of the raft and
face directly to the corner at the edge. Do not move until De Rol Le is
done with the energy balls. This works about 80% of the time. If you are
online, this may not work because other players may do the same thing. It
only works if one person is in the corner.
Resta Dodge:- If you time the technique Resta correctly, you can avoid
almost any attack. The trick is to just cast Resta before your enemy
attacks, but long enough that you can gain life; otherwise you will just
get hit.
Easy Meseta:- This trick requires an empty file and two controllers.
Create a new file, give the character any name, face, color, etc. Return
to the player screen and select multi-player. Have the new person drop the
items. You should get 300 Meseta some Monomates, Monofluid, and a Mag.
Keep repeating this until you can buy the item you want.
Easy level gain:- If you want to gain some levels without much effort and
are around a 25 to 40 level range, try going the forest levels under the
hard difficulty setting. You can usually get about 8,000 experience points
from it.
Find someone who has played the game longer than you have. Ask them if
they can give you a high powered Mag. With this Mag, you can start using
weapons from the Ruins (if it is at a high enough level). Also, you can
join in a multi-player effort. If you are a Ranger, you will have an
easier time then a Hunter. When a teammate has weakened a monster, aim and
go for the kill shot. You should move up levels easily.
Since Hunters are naturally stronger than Forces and Rangers, they have an
advantage. To gain levels quicker, defeat the Caves 3 boss. Hunters can
use an effective Sword or Partisan against him by hitting all of his
parts. After that, talk to the Priciple and go to Mines 1. You can now do
a great deal of damage on the Mine 1 enemies. They are weak. The only
three to watch out for are Sinow Gold, Sinow Beat, and Granas. The basic
enemies in the mines area give about 15 to 22 experience points. By the
time you get to Mines 2, you should have already gained a couple of
levels. Mines 2 also offer a great deal of experience.
Go to the Forest (under the hard, very hard, or ultimate difficulty
settings depending on your level). Enter a room which has a Monest (or
Mothvist in ultimate) and killall the Mosquitoes without killing the nest.
Once the nest stops spitting out mosquitoes, return to town via Telepipe
or Ryuker. Return. The nest will spit out more mosquitoes. The experience
given varies depending on difficulty, but the ultimate mode mosquitoes
give about 230 experience points each.
Play in multi-player mode with a group of either high levels or low
levels. Play through the game as you would in solo mode. Many of the
monsters are harder to defeat, and you will get five points extra
experience per how many people are on your team. By the time you complete
the game you should be at level 20 or higher, depending how many monsters
you have killed. Note: When you make it to hard mode, you will start
finding special weapons earlier because your luck points are being
evaluated as a team and not individually. Then, when you play in solo mode
you will be able to pass through it without problems.
Use a weapon that can confuse an enemy. Use it on a Honest and when the
little fly things appear, they will be confused and will kill each other
giving you the experience.
When you fight a Pofuilly Slime, use Barta or another Ice technique on it.
The enemy will duplicate into two. You can then make a copy of the copy
(you can only make one copy of the original). You can create a total of
six Pofuilly Slime. The copies will give you double the experience of a
normal one.
Easy materials:- Get a character that can easily kill monsters in the
Normal Ruins. Take him, and go through every Ruins under the normal
difficulty setting. You should be able to find, on average, five
materials. Def Materials and Mind Materials are more commonly dropped
because certain creatures seem to drop them more. This is also a good way
to improve lower level characters. Take all material found and give them
to that low level character in Multimode.
Easier Boss battles:- If you are having trouble with Bosses and want to
avoid going through the enter level again after dying, use this trick. Use
a Telepipe or the Ryuker technique at the entrance to the Boss. If you
die, then you can just go over to the bank and find the teleport that you
made. Go through it, and you will get back to the Boss.
To kill the Bosses from the forest, cave, and mines faster, you can use
weapons like the Saucer or use Rares such as Slicer Of Assassin. Keep
using hard attacks, and in about ten minutes it should be dead.
Hunters Guild missions:- If you successfully complete all the Hunters
Guild missions, you will have access to all of the missions all over
again. If you complete the mission again, you will be able to keep playing
it repeatedly.
Weapons from monsters:- If you obtain a special item such as G-Assassins
Arms or Bomma's Right Arm, go to the Unsealed Door mission. Talk to the
person standing to the right of the portal to the principal after all
missions are complete. He will turn your item into a weapon.
Finding rare weapons:- The best place to find rare weapons are at the
Dragon (Episode I) under hard mode. You can find such weapons as Crush
Bullets and Musashis. Its recommended that you enter hard mode at level 30
or high to be effective.
