Tips
- To use Manual control mode, equip the Technical Ring or Combo Command accessory and change the control mode in the Abilities menu or press Select during battle. The Technical Ring is found in Moria Mine, and the Combo Command costs 400,000 Gald.
- For multiplayer, equip a Channeling Ring on a character in the 2-4P slots, set them to Semi-Auto/Manual, and use a second controller. A PlayStation multitap allows for up to four players. Channeling Rings can be obtained from Ami, after Mint joins, from Mirald after Klarth joins, from Bart after Arche joins, and from Ranzo after Suzu joins.
- Set shortcuts for party members' skills by going to the Ability menu during battle, selecting a skill, and pressing R2 or L2.
- Stat herbs (Sage, Savory, etc.) should be transformed into their Red versions using Rune Bottles and fed to Cless, as he often fights alone and needs to be the party's tank.
- The crab in Alvanista is difficult to move. Walking away and talking to it may change its direction. The chest initially contains a Lavendar and later a Star Cloak, but these items are plentiful elsewhere.
- Valuables like Pelt, Coral, and Cordyceps cannot be used directly; they are meant to be sold for extra cash at the best possible price in different towns.
- Chester's Bow can be fixed into the Elven Bow by paying 20,000 Gald at the Elven Village bowyer after Chester rejoins. A further upgrade is available later.
- To clear the Cave of Darkness, you need the Green Torch, Blue Candle, and Red Lantern from Graham's Treasure Hunt and Moria Mine, and the Amethyst Pact Ring from the Cave of Spirits to form a pact with Shadow. Puzzles involve using the Sorcerer's Ring to match shadow positions and standing on specific tiles.
- Pluto is found on floor 21 of Moria Mine and requires the Emerald Pact Ring from the Cave of Darkness. This necessitates traversing Moria twice.
- Sephira/Blue Sephira and Dark/Demon's Seal accessories increase Gald and EXP by 1.5x and 2x respectively.
