Hints & Tips
Gems In the Fallen
Sanctuary, beat Pilbugs with Arcana to get Earth, Wind, Fire,
and Ice gems which can be used in battle, or sold to obtain 100
Gellas.
To obtain gems, destroy an enemy with any Elemental Arcana or
Guardians. Then at the end of the battle, you should receive an
amount of Arcana Gems equal to the number of enemies you beat
with that Elemental Arcana.
Note:
By using Virginia's Mystic and an Arcana Gem could multiply the
gem used, only if the enemies are beate.
Make animal jump in town By using any character's tool, get directly beside an animal
in town. Each of them will do something different.
Secret Garden After you have beaten the Ring Keeper, talk to the girl.
When you plant something normally, you would normally leave and
wait awhile after going on in 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 doing up and you should max
out your Heal Berries, Full Carrots, etc. in a short time.
Character gallery Press
Select
while a dialogue sequence is playing to view a portrait of the
speaking character. Note:
This cannot be done when intermission sequences is being shown.
One hit
kills Just as soon as you
can, equip the Bunker Cannon II on the Sandcraft. Then when in a
battle, always use the force ability "Fire all ammo at once".
You should be able to kill every monster in one hit.
Beating
the roped woman When you are fighting
the roped woman you will notice she kills Clive first. If you
keep bringing him back, she will only go after him. This will
make it easier to fight her.
Easier
money When you arrive at
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 above, use only elemental
Arcanas. After the battle, notice that you will receive 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 for 100 Gellas. Every enemy you kill using an Arcana
normally gives away Arcana gems.
When fighting in the Abyss, you can locate an enemy called
Gella Eater. You have two rounds to kill him or it will run away
with your money. The more money you have, the more he will take
from you. Let them get the money in the first round, then cast
Gella Card and you will get your money back and it will be
doubled. However, make sure you can kill them. They have roughly
3000 HP.
Easy experience
Note:
This trick needs a controller with an auto-fire feature. You
need to have the horses. Go to the world map and get on the
horse. Then set the battles for auto-fight. Set
X
to auto-fire and keep it pressed. The horse will twitch swiftly,
but it will in time get you into a battle. The rest will be
taken care of. Leave the system on to receive free money and
experience. Make sure you pick an area where you can easily beat
the enemies, or you could find your party dead when you resume
playing. If you set it for "Balanced Attack", your characters
will also use magic and your MTC will raise some.
Note:
Due to the ease of the game, it appears that the developers made
it hard to gain levels. Most enemies on the world map that can
be fought in this manner only give around 200 to 300 experience
points. It takes large amount of experience to gain levels after
you become level 50. After level 50, this trick is only useful
for gathering large amounts of money for your ARMs and getting
kills with Arcana to raise MTC.
As soon as you can, purchase at least three Call Whistles
from the traveling salesmen. In Clairborne after you buy the
horses, return to Midland (where the secret garden is at. Call
your horse and jump over the crevice to the north. You need to
be at least level 10 to fight the monsters here, but they are
weak to fire. Equip Virginia Or gallow with Fiery Rage Medium
and summon at the start. It will not kill them right away until
you are at level 17 or 18, but it should do enough harm to kill
them with ARMs. Also, they drop Heart Leaf which will prevent
their own status ailment. Just make sure you equip this and max
it out. After that it should be no problem to gain levels.
Beat 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
receive 10,000 experience points for beating it. After you beat
it, you can battle it all over Filigia.
When you are fighting the Kraken in Little Twister, make sure
everyone is equipped with Water Ward and have it maxed. When you
go into 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 receive the maximum experience points from the battle.
Notice this battle will take roughly an hour for the maximum,
but it will give ten or more levels depending on you pre-battle
levels.
Fireworks show Make your way to the Little Rock Inn and have Gallows in the
lead. Remain there a day and when you get control, just sit
there. In roughly 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.
Remain still for a few minutes to have the screensaver go on. It
looks like a fireworks show and is not 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. It is also the same tool that is used by Cecile in
the first Wild Arms.
Avoiding battles When a white exclamation mark happens to appear over your
head, press
Circle to
skip the battle. If you are close to an object that you can use
just use it, or walk through a door and you will skip the battle
without using any of your MTC points.
Easier battles When you do get the Sandcraft, you will fight some hard
enemies in the Inner Sea. To make these even easier, collect 50
Dragon Fossils by fighting in Fortune Gear. Then, upgrade your
Sandcraft weapon to the Ark Smasher. Then use the "Fire All Ammo
At Once" Force ability to easily take them out.
When you manage to get your characters to 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
go into battle in the Sandcraft, she will get the first turn.
Fire all the ammo, and the battle will be over in just one shot.
The monster will not get a turn. This will take some time, but
you can build up a lot of Gella and experience this way.
After you obtain the last four guardians, put Lust Jaw on
Virginia and fill in "Weakness" where you spend your points to
adjust the attributes. Then, anytime you are in a battle, have
her use "Mystic" and an elemental gem.. When you use that gem,
it will do double damage, plus gives her chain attack credit.
This works well in the Abyss, as there are only five or six
different types of monsters to battle against. Since she goes
first each time, normally you can finish a battle in one turn.
This will work best against groups of monsters.
Different
opening sequences
As you make your way through the game the FMV sequences that
plays when you load a game changes a bit, 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
will in time show up. You will also hear the opening song in
Japanese at one time. Also look for Siegfried to make a brief
appearance, as well as the prophets in a demon form.
Difficult battles To fight a few tough Bosses, go to Green Lodge or Ka Dingel.
Locate the black sphere object to fight a Boss. Do this on all
the black spheres you come across, and on the well in Little
Twister.
Converting animals to items Simply use the tool Radar (Jet) to spot a suspicious animal
in town. Then, use the tool Change Crest (Virginia) to switch
that animal to an item.
Heal Berries If you are running low on Heal Berries, make your way 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, you will also receive Heal Berries or
Gimel Coins.
