Official Hints
When you enter an arena you can see how much gold you need to wager to cover the bet on a fight. The bet changes based on the strength of the fighter your unit will face in battle. The lower the bet, the better the chance that you will be able to easily dispatch of your opponent, earning you money and experience. If you're worried that a proposed fight will be too tough for your unit, simply back out of the arena and reenter. Repeat this process until you come across a fight with a bet low enough for your tastes.

When you finish chapters 6, 12, 17, 20 and 24, you will automatically unlock optional side quest chapters if you have fulfilled certain conditions. To unlock the first of these after chapter 6, the number of total units in your army must be 15 or less including Marth at the time you complete the chapter.

In Chapter 3, send Caeda to a space adjacent to Navarre's and initiate a conversation with him using the special Talk command that appears. Remember, it has to be Caeda. Approaching him with any other character won't do the trick.

Don't forget to talk with villagers from time to time.

Make sure to purchase rare weapons in Chapter 8.

In chapter 8, there are multiple armories and item vendor shops on the map. Here you can find rare and powerful weapons such as Silver Swords and Wing Spears for sale. These weapons will make encounters in the coming chapters much easier, so be sure to make a few purchases before you seize the castle gate and end chapter eight!

You never know what you might gain from talking with the people of the land. For example, in Chapter 11, you can recruit a powerful ballistician by the name of Jake to your team, but only if you talk with his sweetheart, Anna, first. Talk with Anna by visiting the house east of the lake in the village on this map. Only once you've done this can you Talk to Jake using Caeda and recruit him to your cause.

Infinite Money and Exp
Note: This trick works best with Marth and Caeda (after promoting her to Dracoknight). Any unit should be able to pull this off as long as you're willing to devote the time.

Required:
1. Any Chapter with an Arena and Venders
2. An available savepoint
3. At least one unit that can use healing staffs (two if early in the game)
4. Enough money to make at least one Arena wager.

Clear the map, but don't seize the endpoint! Move your units over to the area with the Arena/Venders, then save the game. Enter the arena once or twice (depending on unit strength). Heal your unit with the healer(s) and end the turn. You get experience as well as cash at the end of each battle and your healers gain exp from healing. With the venders right there, you can buy all the staffs you need to keep it up as long as you like. You can repeat this ad infinitum.

Easy Levels for Gordin (Archer)
In Chapter 1 (Marth Embarks), get as many bows as you can and give them to Gordin. Next, you have to kill every enemy on the map except for the boss. Put Gordin in a space where Gordin can hit the boss but the boss can't hit you. All you have to do is keep Shooting him. Every time a shot hits you will get experience. Repeat this until you have leveled up Gordin. You may need to buy more bows.
