Game Info Publisher Sony Developer Enix Genre RPG Origin Japan Number of Players 1 Dual Shock YES Release June 9, 1999 Peripherals Analog Memory Pack

1. In the beginning of the game, there is a mountain dungeon that isn't meant to be faced until much later, thusly the enemies will raise your characters' levels VERY quickly. At first they'll kick your butt, but with every victory you eke out, you'll become stronger [kitchen knife skill makes things easier here, btw] you can build your characters to 3000 hp levels here with some work.

2. Make sure you learn pickpocket [poker face and courage skills] and save up 40,000 bucks. Make your way over to Clik harbor and purchase a thief's glove. Now you can go on a world stealing tour, and get many things. Very notably, there is a man in Mars who carries a treasure box, which when used will dispense three random items. Once you get it, save your game and open it until you get what you want. Though it usually gives you items and such, it occasionally gives you VERY powerful weapons including the Force Sword, the Sorceress Knuckle, and the very rare and powerful Marvel Sword.

3. Later in the game, in the colusseum, the A-class battle earns you right around 100,000 exp, and allows you to quickly build levels until about level 105 [note: Level 90 is adequate to beat the limited version last boss]

4. On one of the snowy islands near Giveaway, there is a shop that sells magical rasp, which allows you to create the most powerful weapons and armor in the game.

1. Rena/Claude - joins you when you start the game.
2. Celine - at Cross Castle after meeting with the king you can find her at the town center.
3. Ashton - located at Salva Mine,only after you beat the boss in the Heradic Forest. Note: If you get Ashton you cannot get Opera.
4. Bowman - he is in Linga he will join you if you find the rare herb for him.
5. Precis - she is located in Linga, but first you must do a private action.
6. Dias - he is at the front line at Lacour, but only after you beat the Hoffman Ruins. You can only obtain Dias if you're playing Rena's game.

Keep creating the food until you run out of ingredients then go sell everything you created, buy more ingredients and do it again until you have the desired amount of money you want.

Easy Money with Aston
You will have to be on the second CD with Ashton in your party for this to work. Ashton will need to have "customize" at a fairly high level and the Orchestra super skill will help a lot. Go to Central City and buy 20 Scythers. Make 20 Damascus (using alchemy, it'll go a lot faster if you do this while orchestra is playing.)Then have Ashton customize the scyther with the damascus (orchestra), it will make his most powerfull weapon, but you don't need 20 of em, sell them for about 1.5 million a piece.

Easy Skill Level Gain
For an easy way to level up skills, you need to level up the perserverance skill to level 10. After you do this, leveling up the other skills will be much easier. For example making it where you can level up most skills with just one Skill Point.

Easy way 2 level 250
Once you are in the cave of trials, And defeated the Level 6 boss and recived the funny sword. Leave, save and go back to floor 6. Make sure you have a few of the forged medals. But really all you have to do is stay in the dungeon looking for the stone theives. They are worth over 30000 exp each and usually attack in 4s. I made Cluade Rena and Ashton Lv. 250 in a little over 2 hours work.

Hidden Dungeon
Save in front of the last boss, and leave the final dungeon. Proceed to fun city and talk to the old man in the back area of the colusseum. Say yes to all his questions, and you'll be transported back to expel, in Arlia. You'll notice two important things that are different: 1.There is a penguin walking around where you appear, talk to him and call him silly, he'll kick you back to Nede. 2. When you leave, there will be a Synard waiting for you. Hop on it and head to the area you couldn't access without it, the dungeon should be glowing with a red dot. Land and enter. The special dungeon is very tough, much harder than the regular last Dungeon...in fact, you'll start out fighting harder enemies than you saw in the normal last dungeon on the very first floor.

Hidden Dungeon Tips
The Hidden dungeon is tough and interesting at the same time. There a various enemies here that have a word in front of their name that are very tough...however, there are weapons [normally useless] that have that same word that wil kill the enemy with one hit. Example:Lvl.99 Funny Thief...pretty tough, Lvl.99 Funny Thief when someone has the Funny Slayer...one hit kill. On the sixth level, there will be a man who occasionally appears in the statue room. He sells very rare stuff, including all the rare metals, the real tri-emblem [not the fake "emplem"], and items that can teleport you out of the dungeon....for you see, there are no save points, so if you are on level 13 of the dungeon and die, your screwed, so you must leave to save on occasion, and when you re-enter there will be methods of going down quickly, such as a trap door. The dungeon also contains very powerful equipment, including [but not limited to] The Levantine Sword, Ashton's ultimate attack, Leon's ultimate attack, Celine's ultimate attack, the angel armband,several pair of bunny shoes, and the valiant armor. As far as monsters go, from around level 3 onward, you may run into boss class monsters as normal fights...you can even run into the last boss of the dungeon as a normal enemy, so be careful.

Rip Off Santa
Here is a simple cheat that will help you purchase those majorly overpriced Santa Boots (10,000,000 Fol) from Santa, the wandering merchant on the 6th floor of the Cave of Trials. First off, you have to meet him. Santa will appear randomly on Level 6, usually by the statues of the thieves so if he isn't there the first time, try leaving the dungeon and comming back. When you finally meet up with him, he will sell Sage's Stones for 50,000 Fol a piece and buy them back for 65,000 Fol. Buy 20 Sage's Stones and sell them right back to him for a 15,000 Fol profit!! Now, if you have the super specialty command Identify All, you can make a 45,000 Fol profit by buying low and selling high! I just wonder if I'll get that Eternal Sphere I wanted for Christmas?

When you have Master Chef level 8 or higher, use vegetables with egg/dairy products and if the combo of ingredients is correct, you will recieve a "Fruit Nectar" which restores 100% HP and MP, or which sells for 109,000 FOL!

Two Levels for the Price of One
You must have two items in your inventory for this to work: "Forged Medals" and the "Dream Bracelet." (I suggest reproducing medals until you have many). Equip the Dream Bracelet on the character you wish to level. Now use a Forged Medal on that character. De-equip the Dream Bracelet. After the next battle, you will gain two levels, at the cost of only one Forged Medal.

Universal Difficulty Level
If you get over 45% of the voice clips, which is about 600 or so, a new 'Universal' difficulty level will open up. Enemy HP and Attack power is doubled in this mode.
