Defeating Goblins
Have some Wood magic equipped. Start the match, wait
until the Goblin runs, then sits still for a moment. Then, use
the magic. Goblins are all weak against Wood; two shots will kill
them.
Defeating the Goblin Kings
Going through a set number of events, a message will
appear on the board called "Let's Play Tag". In this
message, there will be a Golden Goblin challenging you to play
tag. Go to the area instructed and try to defeat him. When you
win, he will tell you how he is just an apprentice of the four
Goblin Kings. Later, you will get extensions of the challenge
note from one of the four Goblin Kings. To defeat them, get close
enough to use a multi-hit attack, such as Tiger Claw or Staccato,
after using an item or technique to raise your accuracy. Otherwise,
most of the hits will miss. Repeat this a few times and you should
defeat them easily.
To kill the last Goblin without having it heal itself, bring some
Mage's Souls and Speed Charm. First, use Speed Charm to go faster.
When you get close enough to the Goblin, use skills. When you
run out of SP, use Mage's Soul to regain it. Keep doing and that
Goblin will not have time to heal.
An easy way to kill any of the Goblin Kings is to first gain levels
until you are about at level 15 to 20. Then, go to one of the
Goblin locations. Make sure to have Hells Gate or Masterblades
(which ever one has Gale Of Swords). Then, use the Moon or a Hanged
Man to put him to sleep or paralyze it, and unleash Gale Of Swords.
This is a Wood elemental attack; you should get an elemental hit.
Do this until it dies.
Defeating Martina, the last Goblin
Bring a couple of Speed Charms and Mage Souls. Martina
is immune to most scrolls and magics. She also heals herself 17
health points every few seconds. Use a Speed charm immediately.
Walk up to Martina and hit her with a special attack (Stacatto
preferred, as it inflicts a moderate amount of damage and does
not take much of your SP away). Immediately run away from her.
Once you are outside a certain range of this Goblin, you will
exit battle mode and Martina will stop running, and stand there
in place. Run up to her and unleash Stacatto again. She will have
healed a small amount in the time it takes to do this, but the
damage you do will be far greater. Repeat this process. Use a
Mage's Soul every once in awhile to restore SP. Depending on your
level, she should only take five to ten minutes to defeat.
Defeating Parasite Dragon
After you defeat Skeith, there will be two e-mails
by "Roy@Bandai"; one stating that you cleared the game
and the other called "Giant of Heavens". Open it, and
it mentions something about a "Mystical Giant". The
e-mail will give you a Virus Core T and a new place to go to:
"Delta Hideous Someone's Giant". The Boss is Parasite
Dragon, Level 30, HP: 9999, SP: 305, Skill: Ranki Lei, Items:
3x Hyrakkidouran. To defeat this boss, you must use the following
characters: Kite, Choice of Heavy Blade, Heavy Axe or Blademaster,
and Wavemaster; along with these items.
Equipment for Kite or Long Arm User:
Weapon: Dante's Blades or Hell's Gate (Twin Blade), Fiend Spear
(Long Arm)
Helmet: Fire Dance Hat
Armor: Firedrake Mail
Hand Armor: Miner's Gloves or Smith's Gloves
Leg Armor: Fire Lizard
Equipment for BlackRose, Blademaster, Heavy Blade, or Heavy Axe:
Weapon: Claymore (Heavy Blade), Jinsaran (Blademaster, Secret
Rare Blademaster Sword) or Sun Fang One or Kikujyumonji, Devil's
Axe (Heavy Axe)
Helmet: Hunter's Hood or Forester Helm
Armor: Blaze Armor
Hand Armor: Hands of Fire
Leg Armor: Electric Guard
Equipment for Mistral or Wavemaster:
Weapon: Starstorm Wand
Helmet: Scarab Earring
Armor: Lincoln Green (From Cima)
Hand Armor: Air Bracer
Leg Armor: Oak Anklet
As you begin the battle, start by using everyone's best skills
at the dragon. However, do not use magic since the Parasite Dragon
has Magic Tolerance. The only thing that is effective on the dragon
is physical attacks. Use both Kite and the Heavy Blade, Heavy
Axe or Blademaster attacking the Dragon while the Wavemaster heals
you. Because of the last battle against Skeith, you should have
a lot of Resurrects. Keep attacking it and heal often. The dragon
can do damages of 400+ for the fire breath and 500 for each of
the two bite hits. Once finished, a short intermission sequence
will show Kite saying that the monster made the airship into a
flesh airship.
Enter this battle with at least 15 Resurrects and make sure Kite
knows Repth or La Repth. Instead of bringing in a Wave Master
into the fight, bring in two of your strongest fighters (for example,
BlackRose and Gardenia). When the portal with the Parasite Dragon
opens, have Kite run away but tell the others to use attack skills.
The Parasite Dragon will be occupied with the other two fighters
and not on Kite. Keep having Kite heal everyone. When the other
characters die, use a Resurrect. When the Dragon can be Data Drained
(at about 700 HP) use Data Drain and you will get the Hyakkidouran
for Kite.
Get Kite and two of your strongest friends (such as Blackrose
and Piros). Go to a shop and buy 99 Healing Potions and about
50to 70 Resurrects. Also get some Mage's Souls and Warrior's Blood.
Go to the Parasite Dragon. When your two friends start fighting
it, run backwards to the bottom left or right. The dragon will
stay fairly far away. From here, use your potions on your friends
and any spells to help them fight. Your friends will eventually
hit the dragon enough until you hack it.
Go to Delta server and buy a lot of Resurrects. Do not waste your
money on other items. Before you leave, make sure you have Piros
and BlackRose, or Piros and Mistral. Then, go to "Hideous
Someone's Giant" and fight your way through the dungeon.
Make sure your party is over level 30. Once you are at the Dragon,
its best to heal up and prepare. Do not use skills or magic. Choose
"Wonder Battle" and "Physical Attacks". Your
party will attack, but you will stay back. Parasite Dragon does
a lot of damage. It is best for you to watch the battle. That
way, when a member dies, you can revive them. It may be boring,
but it is the easiest way. There is no need to worry about your
equipment or Parasite Dragon's health and status unless you want
to do a lot of damage. Before you make the finally blow, use Data
Drain to get a rare weapon.(Hyakkidorran or Jinsiran). The experience
you get is weak; do not kill it with a normal attack.
Before this fight, give BlackRose the Flame Sword and Piros the
Master's Axe. After trudging through battles in the aerial fleet,
you will fight the secret Boss, Parasite Dragon. Make sure Kite
has lots of Resurrects, or the Rip Mean skill. Resurrects do not
use any SP, but they cost 400 gp. The Rip Mean skill can be acquired
by equipping the Scarab Earring. The magic skill costs a lot of
SP, but it saves Kite from wasting lots of money and Resurrects.
Get lots of Mage's Souls and Health Potions before fighting it.
The Parasite Dragon is a huge monstrosity, and its attacks can
kill BlackRose and Piros both in one hit from its flame breath.
The monster attacks swiftly and without mercy, but you must allow
BlackRose and Piros to continually attack the monster. They will
both die many times; use a Mage's Soul to cast Rip Mean when you
are out of Resurrects. It will be a long fight, because BlackRose
and Piros can only do about 20 to 50 damage per hit. ! After you
are successful in damaging it enough, you can Data Drain the beast.
Data Draining the Parasite Dragon gives the incredibly powerful
Hyakiddorian twin blade weapon for Kite or Natsume.
Defeating Skeith
Buy many Resurrects, Healing Drinks, Antidotes, Restoratives
and Mage's Souls. Have your party at least at level 30. Take a
person with a lot of damage in your party, and equip the best
equipment there is, as follows:
Equipment for Kite or Long Arm User:
Weapon: Dante's Blades or Hell's Gate (Twin Blade), Fiend Spear
(Long Arm)
Helmet: Fire Dance Hat
Armor: Firedrake Mail
Hand Armor: Miner's Gloves or Smith's Gloves
Leg Armor: Fire Lizard
Equipment for BlackRose, Blademaster, Heavy Blade, or Heavy Axe:
Weapon: Claymore (Heavy Blade), Jinsaran (Blademaster, Secret
Rare Blademaster Sword) or Sun Fang One or Kikujyumonji, Devil's
Axe (Heavy Axe)
Helmet: Hunter's Hood or Forester Helm
Armor: Blaze Armor
Hand Armor: Hands of Fire
Leg Armor: Electric Guard
Equipment for Mistral or Wavemaster:
Weapon: Starstorm Wand
Helmet: Scarab Earring
Armor: Lincoln Green (From Cima)
Hand Armor: Air Bracer
Leg Armor: Oak Anklet
To defeat Skeith, distribute twenty Resurrects to each person
in the party, then thirty Healing Drinks and twenty of Antidote
and Restoratives. Do not distribute the Mage's Souls. Use the
entire group at first and use skills. If Kite dies, press [Square]
for "First Aid" and afterwards, just keep hitting him
without skills. Once you get enough for data hacking, use it on
Skeith and you will see his second form. Because of this, just
do a hit and heal combo so you will not get major damage from
the shockwave hits. Keep repeating this combo so you will not
die. And if you do die, keep using "First Aid" and keep
slashing away.
To defeat Skeith easily, follow these tips. Have Blackrose and
Gardenia in your party, with everyone at least level 32 (extra
HP and SP). Buy a lot of Resurrects, and get Healing Potions (the
ones that increase your health by 400). Have your character get
the MasterBlades as a weapon, and the Scarab EarRings as head
armor. Have Blackrose have her best weapon, the Dryad's Sword
(go to Theta Beautiful, Hopeless, Spiral and get it from the Gott
Statue). Have Gardenia have the Scarlet Autumn weapon (Data Drain
Tetra Armor). When the fight begins, act as the healer and let
Gardenia and Blackrose do skills. If Skeith Data Drains someone,
it does not matter. Use Restoratives on him or her. After Data
Draining him, you can come in and use the Twin Dragons Skill (included
with MasterBlades) on Skeith. With Scarab Earrings, you can cast
Rip Maen on a dead person, instead of using a Resurrect.
After you Data Drain Skeith, have all your characters use all
their skills. Keep everyone's SP up using Mage's Soul. Do the
same for your own character. Use your skills; the more complex,
the better. Skeith, in his second form, will not move or attack
if you are doing damage to him. It is possible to defeat him without
Skeith even moving.
Have everyone in your party at level 33. Stand back while they
hack at Skeith. Use Pure Water for the Judgment attack as well
Hunters Knights and Warriors Blood for the defense against his
attacks, as well as damage and accuracy towards him. Collect healing
potions from other dungeons. You need at least 25, as well as
99 Health Drinks, Restoratives, Resurrects and Antidotes. Have
your party members use their most powerful weapon, which is normally
the rarest weapon for them. Then, just let them hack at Skeith
until Data Drained. Then, repeat the process on Data Drained Skeith.
Use the characters Kite, Sanjuro, and Blackrose. Make sure that
all three of them are at least level 32. When traveling through
the dungeon, make sure that Blackrose and Sanjuro do not use items
to heal or revive each other or your character. Do it yourself.
Make sure to carry 40 resurrects, 150 Healing Drinks, 50 Antidotes,
20 Restoratives, 20 Mage Souls, and 20 Warriors Blood. It would
be best to have the Warriorblades for when you fight Skieth. Do
not use scrolls and only use skills that come with your weapon.
Do not use Repth -- that is what the Healing Drinks are for. Keep
everyone constantly as close to full health as you can without
wasting most of the drink. Then, just attack him until he is dead.
The following is an easy way to defeat Skieth on level 1. There
is a room to the left. Go to the room to find jars, boxes, etc.
at one point. There is a lot of junk in this place, but there
is a Healing Potion (not drinks) which can be very helpful when
fighting Skieth.
To defeat Skieth, you should be at a minimum of level 30, and
have the best weapons for Kite, Blackrose, and your third character
(Gardenia recommended). Make sure you get at least ten Mage's
Souls and ten Resurrects, then go for Skieth. Battling Skieth
is actually easy. The trick is to get Blackrose and the third
member to do the work for you. Select the "Skills!"
command to make them do damage to Skieth, and keep popping Mage's
Souls in them when they get low SP, so that they can heal you
when Skieth does a damaging attack. Once you battle him for a
little while, you can use Data Drain on him. He only has a few
thousand HP remaining, but keep using the same strategy since
you cannot risk Kite dying.
Before you fight the final Boss of the game, buffer everyone's
stats, and top off their HP and SP. When you battle Skeith, take
two heavy hitters, such as BlackRose, Gardenia, or Piros. Never
bring a Wavemaster -- if Skeith gets close to your them, he or
she will die flawlessly by Skeith. Have your heavy hitters rush
in and attack Skeith up close. Do not send Kite in because your
heavy hitters will be an easy target if they are left uncommanded.
Use magic scrolls or spells to inflict damage. Whenever someone
falls below 400 HP, give them a health drink. If anyone falls
below 200 HP, give them a health potion. Skeith's most dangerous
attack is called Judgment. This devastating magic attack freezes
all your party members and yourself in three blocks of ice, and
it deals between 100 to 400 HP damage. It is very important to
give everyone a dose of Pure Water. As it halves the damage caused
by the Judgment attack. Also, Skeith will use his own Data Drain.
Although he will not kill anyone as he did with Orca and Aura,
he will Data Drain BlackRose, and she will get every status ailment.
Give her an Antidote and a Restorative to counter the malady.
If you managed to keep all your characters healthy and Skeith
has taken enough damage, he will be susceptible to Data Drain.
After you are done Data Draining him, your fight will be much
easier. He will not use Judgment or any of his powerful skills,
but he is musch faster than before. Because Skeith has been weakened,
you can rush in and finish the job with your two heavy hitters.
Escape from battles
When you are in a fight, point the camera away from
the enemy and run in that direction. Do not stop running until
"Battle Mode Off" appears and the enemy sign disappears.
Be careful not to run into other enemies or other portals. Note:
This does not work on Bosses.
Blackrose: Best weapon
The strongest weapon you can get for Blackrose or any
Heavy Blade is a Blaze Sword. You can get it by Data Draining
the Hell Hounds in a Level 28 to 30 Keyword, such as Voluptuous
Geothermal Paradise.
Elk: Best weapon
Elk's best weapon, the Starstorm Wand, along with two
Rainbow Cards, can be found in the Gott Statue chest at the bottom
of the dungeon in Theta: Voluptuous Geothermal Paradise.
Kite: Best weapon
To get Kites best available weapon for Part 1, Data
Drain the "Mu Guardians" enough times. Eventually you
will get the rare Level 14 Dual Blades.
Data Drain the Mu Guardians for one of Kite's best weapons, the
Bom-Ba-Yee. Data Drain a Phoenix Queen to get a very powerful
Wavemaster weapon.
One of Kite's best weapons, Dante's Blades, along with two Silver
Scarabs, can be found in the Gott Statue at the bottom of the
dungeon in Theta: Discovered Hopeless White Devil. The area is
level 30, Water element.
E-mails
If you spend a lot of time with your friends (Mistral,
BlackRose, etc.) they will send you e-mails.

Secret rare weapons
Data Drain enemies and on rare occasions, you will
get a secret weapon. Each secret rare weapon lowers one or more
stat parameter by -10.
Secret Rare Twin Blade: Hyakkidorran (Data Drain the Parasite
Dragon)
Secret Rare Blademaster: Jinsiran
The best weapon is acquired by Data Draining the Parasite Dragon
on the airship. It does more damage than the Bom-Ba-Ye, is less
accurate, but has more skills and magic power.
Ultimate weapons
Twin Blade
Hyakkidorran (Data Drain the Parasite Dragon)
Blade Master
Jinsiran (Data Drain the Metal Goblin)
Heavy Blade
Dryad's Sword (found at Theta Beautiful Hopeless Spiral),
Shikisokuzeku (Data Drain the Goil Menhir), or Sakabatou (Data
Drain the Hell Hound)
Go to a level 28 to 30 area in the second server and Data Drain
the Mu Guardians a lot. You can get one of two very rare weapons;
a level 18 blade or a level 19 blade. They are very difficult
to get.
Heavy Axe
Devil's Axe (Data Drain the Phoenix Queen or Mystery Rock)
Wavemaster
Dark History (Data Drain the Phoenix Queen) or Starstorm Wand
(trade with at Theta Server Root Town)
Long Arm
Scarlet Autumn (Data Drain the Tetra Armor)
Alternately, for Heavy Axe: Axe Bomber (Data Drain Red Scissors),
and Wavemaster: Jester's Wand (Data Drain Wood Stock).
When you find Twin Blade weapons that have any elemental attack
(preferably the spin type ones), keep them. They can be useful
if used properly. If you encounter an enemy with the Earth element,
then pull out that weapon and use Splinter-Slash on him. It is
much more effective because you will always hit for about 100,
and with an elemental attack it will hit them about ten times
with 200+ damage. The same applies for Wavemaster weapons. Make
sure to have a variety of attacks for every situation.
Monieur level ups
If you go to the Spring Of Mist, Monsieur will ask
if you dropped a Golden Axe or a Silver Axe. If you say "Neither"
he will either decrease or increase the level of the weapon or
piece of armor. If it is too powerful to level up, he will give
your weapon/armor back and a Golden Axe and a Silver Axe. The
increase or decrease depends on the atmospheric conditions, as
follows.
| Atmosphere | Weapon Effect | Armor Effect |
| Afternoon | +2 levels | -1 level |
| Evening | +1 level | +1 level |
| Night | +1 level | +1 level |
| Clouds | +2 levels | -1 levels |
| Rain | -1 level | +2 levels |
| Thunder | -1 level | +2 levels |
| Snow | -1 level | +2 levels |

Charms
You can get a lot of charms from places. The Moon,
which puts people to sleep and The Hanged man, which paralyzes
people, can be used on the Gob Kings. Then you can go over there
and just hack at them.
Dante's Blades
Get the Twinblade weapon Hell's Gate, then in Theta
server, go to a level 25 to 30 area. If you find a Spring Of Myst,
put them in. When asked if it was a Golden Axe or a Silver Axe,
answer "Neither". If successful, you will have Dante's
Blades.
Giant Hill
To get the rare heavy axe, Giant Hill, Data Drain the
enemy Mantis in places at levels 26 to 30.
Drain the Mantises at (Theta) Sinking Haunted Twin Hills. You
will need to drain ten to twenty Mantises, but will get one or
two Giant Hill axes in the process.
Golden Axe and Silver Axe
Use the following trick to get a free Golden and Silver
Axe. Go to a Monsieur level 1 and give him any moderately high
level weapon or armor. When he asks you what you lost, tell him
"Neither one". He will give you a Golden Axe, Silver
Axe, and your weapon back.
Go to the weapons shop in root town Lambda - L, Cultural City
Carmina Gadelica and buy one Spiral Edge for 700 GP. Each time
you encounter a Spring Of Myst, throw in the Spiral Edge. Monsieur
will tell you that "With a weapon of this level, there is
nothing I can do". He will give you back the Spiral Edge
plus one Golden Axe and one Silver Axe every time. Note: This
trick works with any "rare" weapon thrown in the Spring
Of Myst.
Iron Rod
Almost everyone wants an Iron Rod. Buy as many Iron
Rods as you can and trade them with almost anyone. Even if they
are not a Wavemaster, they should accept the trade. Note: This
was only attempted in the first Root Town. The most you will need
for one trade is twenty Iron Rods. Some people only want certain
items, such as Pure Water, and will only accept that item for
a trade.
Master Blades
In the last level, Data Drain the Orges and you will
get a more powerful weapon, named Master Blades.
An easy way to get the Master Blades for Kite is to first have
access to the Beta server (the 0 server). It greatly helps to
have a Grunty Flute to avoid battles. Also, you must have the
Bloody Blades (recommended) or Ronin Blades and a spare weapon.
Go to the Beta server, then to the gate and hit "Random".
When you get a field that is in the range of level 25 to 30, enter.
When you arrive in the field, make sure it is daytime and sunny.
Select the overall map and look for a spring. If one is found,
use the Grunty Flute to travel faster and avoid battles. If there
was no spring, gate out and try again. Once you reach the hot
spring with the Bloody Blades and are asked what you dropped in,
say "Neither". He will upgrade you weapon. Continue
to do this until you get the Master Blades.
To get the Master Blades, raise a Noble Grunty. Sometimes when
you trade with him, he will have the Masterblades.
Get the Twinblade weapon Raitei. While in the Theta server, go
to a level 25 to 30 area. Find a Spring Of Myst. Drop the Raitei
in and answer "Neither" when asked if it was a Golden
Axe or a Silver Axe. If successful, you wil now have Master Blades.
Ryu Book
To get a Ryu Book, use Data Drain frequently. However,
do not use Data Drain can cause some damage to you. There are
only eight Ryu Books in volume one. The Ryu Books keeps a record
of almost everything. It will tell you if you broke a record.
It will then give you a new sound or movie for your computer on
the game. Note: Movie only works the game has been completed,
and all movies are just some memories of what happened. Check
every Ryu Book if you got everything for the computer. If it is
red, it can not create any more things for you. You can only check
a Ryu Book when in the server.
Spring Of Myst
Through a weapon or armor in it while it is sunny and
it will gain two levels. If it is at sunset, it will gain one
level. If it is raining, it will go down by one level.
Summons
A level 1 summon for each type of element can be found
in dungeons level 29 and 30, for the corresponding element. They
are not as powerful as level 3 magic, but they seem to not miss
the targets.
Thunder Cloak
Look for someone named Tim. He may be a Wavemaster
wearing a green outfit. He has an item for trade called Thunder
Cloak. It is a level 31 armor, and has the power to revive dead
players so you will not need to use Resurrect potions all the
time. It also has other powers.
Virus Cores
Go to "theta bursting passed over holy ground".
You can get Virus Core Bs easily by Data Draining the Squilla
Demons. This area is level 16.
Well Waters
The best location to find Well Waters for trading with
people such as Alicia is (Triange) Boundless Corrupted FortWalls.
This is the area given to you by Miu to go to alone. Go there
and get to the B5 level. Their will be a plus sign set of rooms.
In the left room are six crates and six barrels. The right room
has six crates and six barrels. Break all twelve of them and run
in between the two rooms. You will average 1.2 Well Waters per
room.
Chaos Gate: Extreme difficulty field
At the Chaos Gate, choose "New Keyword" and
put "Putried Primitive Melody" for extreme difficulty
(battle level 17).
Easy Master Supreme on the Zeit Statue
ranking
Go to Root Town and put the keywords "Chronicling
Pagan Sunny Demon". Bring a Speed Charm and a few Fairy Orbs.
To find the way in the dungeon, use Speed Charm to go faster and
Fairy Orb to see your way. Go to the Zeit Statue. When at Master
Supreme rank, you will get Time items.
Go to Delta: "Chronicling Destroyer's Aqua Field". You
will get one Rare Time Item for each place you get at the ranking:
Fifth: Time Headband
Fourth: Time Sash
Third: Time Bracer
Second: Time Sandals
First: Time Blades
Castle in the sky
To go see a giant evil castle floating in the sky,
go to Beta (0) server and enter the keywords "Chosen"
"Someone's" "Scent". After you appear, press
[L2] and look around. You will see a giant castle with swirling
clouds about it.
Upgrading weapons or armor quickly
You need to be at the 0 server and have the Grunty
Flute. Go up to the portal, make sure you have the items on you
and are not using them, hit "Random" a few times until
you get a high field level (25 to 30) and warp. As soon as you
are on the field, look for a pool symbol. If there is not one,
leave. If there is, stay and pull up your menu. Go to "Key
Items", then "Grunty Flute". Run to the pool symbol.
With the flute, you will not run into any of the portals. Be careful,
as there are some people just walking around. Check before getting
off the pig thing. Go to the pool and throw in your items. He
will appear and ask you what you dropped. Say "Neither".
He will spin and give you better or worse items. If you save just
before you do this, quit if he gives you worse items and try another
area. Save the game after he gives you a better item.
Go to a high level area of 25 to 30 and find a Spring of Myst.
Make sure you have a strong weapon such as Bom-Ba-Ye, which is
acquired by Data Draining Mu Gaurdians. If it is sunny, throw
in the weapon. Save the game before this is done. Choose either
"lost a Golden Axe" or "Silver Axe" and Grandpa
or Monusier will make the weapon two levels stronger. Go to town
and save the game. Do this again to get the weapon to a very high
level.
First, get a powerful weapon that you can hold. Unequip it and
go to a high level area. Go to a stream and throw the weapon in
there. You will either get a more powerful weapon or your original
weapon back and a golden and silver axe. If it does not happens,
go to a higher level area with a stream.
An easy way to level up any weapon quickly is to go to Theta Server
and for part A put "cursed", part B put "destroyer's",
and for part C "start with treasure gem". Warp in, and
there is a Grandpa level 2 near where you start. It is during
the day. Upgrade your weapon, then warp out. Keep part A and part
B the same, but move part C up one spot. Warp in and it will be
the layout with a level 2 Grandpa next to you. You can keep moving
up one on part C for almost the whole list.
Getting items
Use the following trick to get certain items needed
for trade (for example, Cooked Bile). Remember a place that has
the item and go there. Once you get to a place with a lot of jars
or eggs/small eggs (usually a treasure box area), break everything.
If you get the desired item, exit then immediately return. The
jars or eggs/small eggs have been restored. Break everything again.
Note: This does not mean you will get the desired item every time.
Keep repeating the process until you have enough of those items
to trade. You will get items that are useful, such as Healing
Potions, Healing Drinks, Antidotes, Resurrects, and Restoratives.
This is especially useful just before Bosses. Also, since it is
free you will not want waste any money.
In the beginning of the game when Orca explains about normal treasure
chests and risky treasure chests, leave the dungeon and enter
it again. The chests will reappear. Do this as many times as desired
to get good items to sell or trade.
Use the following trick to get free level 3 armor. In the area
with Orca, enter the dungeon. Watch the "Open Chest"
tutorial, then leave the dungeon and re-enter. The chests should
return. Open them and repeat this until you cannot hold any more
items. Use Orca's Repth spell when you run out of "Fortune
Wires."
Opening tricky treasure chests
You can get into the tricky treasure chests without
having to use a Fortune Wire. Open the chest, and something may
happen to you. If something does, have one of your members heal
you.
Easy money
The best way to earn money is to get charms and sell
them. Put the ones you want in storage and the ones you want to
sell in your inventory. You may want to keep some Speed Charms
and the ones that effect the enemy, Paralyze, Poison, and Sleep.
Most charms are level 1,but on occasion you may find a level 3,
which is worth more. You often have to trade for level 2, or go
to tougher dungeons. The level 1 charms sell for 100 GP each.
It is recommended that you complete the dungeons completely (open
all the portals on the field and in the dungeon). When you complete
this, words will appear that all of the portals on the field or
dungeon have been opened. Run through the areas you have not visited
and collect the items. You could sell your weapons, but it is
obviously better if you trade them in for a Dante's Blade or Hell's
Gate; or perhaps a Shadow Blade if you are still in Delta Server.
If you rely on charms a lot, keep the ones you desire in your
storage and sell the useless ones to the merchants.
Easy experience
Go to "Delta, Closed Oblivious Twin Hills"
to find weak enemies that give lots of experience points each.
You should go there only if you are at level 20 and above.
To gain levels quickly, buy a load of Hanged Mans and Healing
items and enter a high level dungeon with a Heavyblade and a Wavemaster
(BlackRose and Mystral recommended). When you enter a fight, use
the Hanged Man on your enemies to paralyze them, then have your
group use skills. Mystral works well because she uses the perfect
attack on enemies to score elemental damage. When your party gets
weak, use healing items or magic to revive.
When in Theta server, try to get to level 16 or 17. Make sure
BlackRose and Sanjuro (or any other strong character) is in your
party. Use the keywords Sleepy Hot-Blooded Sea of Sand. The monsters
here are level 28, are easy to defeat, and drop some good items.
A good weapon to have for Kite in this area is Raitei, due to
its Thunder Coil skill which will be strong against the Metal
Goblins; and Stacatto on the Lead Snakoid.
Easy weapon and armor power up
Use the following trick to get the highest level for
your weapons and armor per server. When at the Choas Gate to choose
a place to go, choose "New Keywords" instead of "Random".
Here is a simple formula to choose your keywords to get a Monsenor
(Blue) to upgrade your weapons: Enter anything for the first two
words, then "Aqua Field(Hypha)" for the last word. To
get a Granpa (Red) to upgrade your weapons, enter "Lonely(Great)"
for the first word, anything for the second word, then "Aqua
Field(Hypha)" for the last word. To get a Monsenor(Blue)
to upgrade your armor, enter anything for the first two words,
then "Twin Hills" for the last word. To get a Grandpa
(Red) to upgrade your armor, enter "Lonely(Great)" for
the first word, anything for the second word, and "Twin Hills"
for the last word.
Use the following trick level up Grandpa easily. If you use Solitary
as the Keyword B, then the field of the area will most likely
have rooms and should be a dungeon. Enter in the Beta (O) server
the words, "Detestable Solitary Messenger". Before you
go, save the game and do not do anything important. Go to that
area and it will be a sunny afternoon in the woods. Use a Fairy's
Orb and you will see that Grandpa's Spring is just two rooms away
with one battle in between. This Magic Portal will most likely
be a Woodstock monster or a treasure chest. Use The Moon or The
Hanged Man on it and defeat it. Advance forward and throw a weapon
into Grandpa's Spring of Myst. If he cannot make it stronger,
makes it weaker, or makes it into something you do not want, press
[Start] and return to title screen. Repeat the process until
you have what is desired. After saving the game, you may want
to repeat the process and instead go to Beta (O), "Greedy
Solitary Melody" to do the same thing, except good for armor
because the weather is bad. The only difference is that the Spring
of Myst is farther away and has more battles in between.
Easy Piney Apples
Go to 0 Hidden Solitary Sunny Demon. There is a Piney
Apple directly behind you. Pick it up, then go back to town. Return
and do it again until you have enough.
Exit dungeons quickly
Whenever you get lost in a dungeon, for example one
that is crawling with Data Bugs, and you need the fastest route
out; or if you just want to exit, remember that you can also use
the Fairies Orb inside the dungeon as well as outside.
OrcaAxeman
Use this trick to get good party members. You must
have a party of Piroshi and BlackRose. Level up to at least level
20.Go to stages like theta, hidden, bursting, remnant. If you
are very skilled, then go to theta, chosen , hopples, ( ) .Keep
doing this and Piros will have 1050 health like Orca.
Regain SP
Walk around and your SP meter will refill. This is
especially useful if you have monsters to fight next. You can
just wait in an empty dungeon room until it refills.
Difficult levels
Go to the Chaos Gate then enter one of the following
new keywords. "[ all data]" for Closed Oblivios Twin
Hills, level 22, "Collapsed pagan march" for level 26,
"Caressed silent melody" for level 26, "Quite gluttonous
fiery sands" for level 24, "Lonely hot-blooded sunny
demon" for level 27, and "Lonely hot-blooded melody"
for level 30.
Go to the "Putrid primitive sea of sand". It is level
19.
Enter Great and silent as the first two keywords and then anything
else. It is all level 30 areas.
DVD special keywords
The OVA that comes with the game has hidden keywords
to help you. The only one that has relevance is "Chosen Hopeless
Nothingness", which is where you fight the final Boss. If
you turn on subtitles, you will find keywords throughout the DVD.
Some include "Luscious Her Remnant", "Hideous Organ
market Scaffold, and "Dog Dancing Passionate Tri Pansy".
None of them are that special, but in "Delta: Hideous, Organ
Market, Scaffold", if you reach the statue of Gott at the
end of the dungeon you will get an Ice Block that is used for
trading.
On the DVD, "Voluputous Her Remnant" are also given
as keywords when the subtitles are turned on. Go there on Delta
to get Rusty Nail and Kagayuzen.
Go to Delta: Dog Dancing Passionate Tri Pansy to get Soul Blades
and a Ceramic Helm.
DVD Timeline gallery instructions
Insert the DVD, then select the "Data" option
at the main menu. Highlight the "Main Menu" option,
then press [Right], [Left] to view instructions on how
to use the Timeline gallery.
Revive characters
If your characters are dead (such as Kite) and you
cannot revive them, press [Square] and choose "First
Aid". One of your characters should revive them.
Easier game
It is much easier if you have a Wavemaster in your
party, whether it is Elk, Wiseman, or someone else; and also have
a heavy blade person. This helps very much. Also keep your other
members leveled up with you because you have to use them at times.
Buy items such as Speed Scroll, Warrior Blood, Hermit Blood, etc.
to have a better boosted character.
Easy level up
Put in a random keyword until you find a significantly
higher level than yours (use Kite only) and make sure what element
it is. Once you reach the server, use Speed Scrolls, Warrior Bloods,
etc., and items such as Burning Oil, Well Water, or magics to
raise element damage. Use a Hermit Blood on Kite and raise his
element damage with an item/magic (whichever element is needed).
Encounter an enemy with the opposite element and you
will do heavy damage. After you level up, bring your other characters
to the stage. You will notice that they also grew in levels by
a bit. Use the same strategy (if needed) and raise their level
as well.
Easy level dungeons
To get easy level dungeons with only two floors, very
few monsters and, at the most eight portals in the dungeon use
the keywords Generous Primitive, then and any other word at the
bottom of the list. This works in the Beta Root Town only. This
is an easy way to get dungeons off your Ryu Books unlock a movie
or music.
Easy battles
Keep powering up your Wavemasters so that you can just
let them do all the work. None of them will get hurt. Make sure
to have a lot of Artisan's Souls.
When you are going out to go to fields, choose Blackrose and Mistral
in your party. They are very useful. Make sure they have strong
weapons from .hack Part 1: Infection. Have Mistral equip
Starstrom or Storm whatever. She will have Summonings 1 and 2
of Earth Yarthkins and level 2 Vulcan Fire. Also find an armor
for her that has Ola Repth. It recovers 400 HP with anyone near
the target she is healing. When in battle, have Mistral use the
First Aid command and if you have to everyone First Aid.
Bring a Wavemaster and someone with good attack skills. That way,
Kite and the other person will attack and the Wavemaster will
heal you.
To get through dungeons easier, just equip Speed Charms. If you
do not have any, just trade with one of your party members. They
will trade you the Speed Charm for one of the "The"
items (The Death, The Hanged Man, etc.) It will only require one
to make a trade.
Gain Skill points back faster
If you are at least at level 10, when you stand in
location you will gain two or more skill points at once.
See Cubia watching
Go to any field, any server and press [L2] for
first person view. If you look around at the sky, you can see
Cubia keeping tabs on you. It will disappear and reappear in a
different location at random.
