As you might remember, I started this guide like 2+ years ago. Sadly, I never got my ass in gear to finish it, so I better decided to take it off the side. Well, now I wanna restart this project since I've been wanting to play this game again and what better way than writing for it. This version is an upgraded version, since I've honed my writing skills and I'm much better now. So follow me, in the rewriting of this guide. Hope you enjoy. Now allow me to take note on some things: - I'm writing this for free and because I'm in love with this game. If you are looking for tons of eloquent ways for me to say "move here and a battle will start", you are going to be so disappointed. This guide is way, way too big to begin with, and lofty language does not help. - If you take a quick scan thru my guide, you won't find the explanations for battle basics, main menu, saving-loading, etc. Why, you ask? Well, because the game manual and in-game tutorials do a perfect job explaining how the game works. - The usage of abbreviations. When you're in my place or any who writes for GameFAQ's or any other page, writing a guide for any game of such proportions, people complain about using too many abbreviations. You have no idea how helpful abbreviations are. It also looks better in every aspect you think. - The spoilers are great issues in making guides. I am a player of the game, just like you are. The first time I played through this game was completely by myself. I didn't read any spoilers, therefore nothing was spoiled for me. All the story's ups and downs that were supposed to surprise me had such effect. And I really think it's not fair spoiling such story elements to you. With all this said, let's start with the guide! Enjoy this guide and remember that it is a spoiler-free, so you don't have to worry about important info of the game being spoiled. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ~-~ ~-~ ~-~ 1.1] Contact Rules ~-~ ~-~ ~-~ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-.sx101.-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= '-----' Any critiques, suggestions, spelling mistakes, contributions are welcome, so please send them at the following e-mail: --> vinheim@gmail.com <-- I always reply to all the mails I get, since feedback is the best reward of all. o Important ----------- The only sites allowed to host my FAQ's from here on out are the following: - www.gamefaqs.com - www.supercheats.com - www.neoseeker.com This is because many sites either steal my guides or they don't update them, making it really hard on me because many readers from other sites often ask me question from an incomplete guide, so this is a better way to keep track of my FAQ's and my readers. Please, if you're not on the list above, don't even bother asking about hosting them because the answer will be NO. Thanks. ----------- I also have MSN and AIM, but please, if you add me, do NOT start bombing me with IM. If I have the time, I'll chat to you, since I'm always busy writing FAQ's and making some research for my job and school, but please keep it polite, 'k? Anyway, here they are: MSN: xander_may_cry@hotmail.com AIM: vinh3im Ask politely and I'll add you. I don't have YIM, so start mailing me to make one just so you can chat with me. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ~-~ ~-~ ~-~ 1.2] Donations ~-~ ~-~ ~-~ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-.sx102.-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= '-----' This is a little experiment of mine and I just wanna see how it goes. Well, if you found this guide to be at least somewhat useful, think about donating some money. I mean, I'm a student who pays his own school, and it's gastronomy and it consumes all the money I get at home. I'm not asking for 10-20 bucks. Whatever your heart wants to give is fine, be it 1 buck, 50 cents. Whatever the amount you can donate, I'd truly, TRULY appreciate it and your help would be greatly appreciated. Well, you can only donate through PayPal at the moment, which the account is: vinheim@gmail.com ----------------- Instead of buying the official guides which cost around 20 dls., better donate half or a quarter or whatever amount to yours truly. To those who support me, thanks. - Alexander Paul Kleinheider aka vinheim ___________ .____ ___________ .____ \__ ___/___ | | .=========================. \__ ___/___ | | | | / _ \| | | 2] Game Basics | | | / _ \| | | |( <_> ) |___ | [sx200] | | |( <_> ) |___ |____| \____/|________\ '=========================' |____| \____/|________\ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Here, I'll give you the basics of this game, which are the controls and some of the story (from the Instruction Booklet), and I think that's pretty much it. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ~-~ ~-~ ~-~ 2.1] Story ~-~ ~-~ ~-~ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-.sx201.-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= '-----' Most of the world was covered with a raging ocean -- Senel Coolidge, a young man and master of a special power known as eres, and his young sister Shirley, found themselves adrift in a sea of standing fog. Just as they had run out of food and were at the limits of their strength, an island emerged through the fog. The island approached them with amazing speed, their small boat caught in powerful waves. When they awoke, they found themselves washed ashore. Though covered in soil and vegetation, and appearing to be an island from a distance, the "land" that spread out beneath their feet was no island at all. It was a gigantic ship. The ship - a relic of some ancient civiliza- tion - was known as the Legacy, and there were many on the Legacy lying in wait for Shirley. They called her "Merines" and pur- sued her to further their own scheme. Meeting many companions on the way, Senel overcomes many obstacles, leading him to an enormous mystery surrounding the truth about the world and its people... - Tales of Legendia Instruction Booklet =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ~-~ ~-~ ~-~ 2.2] Controls ~-~ ~-~ ~-~ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-.sx202.-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= '-----' MENU - L analog..........Cursor movement = D-pad....:......Increase or decrease numbers - R analog..........Nothing - X Button.........Confirm Selection - O Button.........Cancel Selection - /\ Button.........Remove Equipped Item - [] Button.........Change Information :......Display Details - R1 Button.........Change Character :......Change Category - R2 Button.........Next Page - R3 Button.........Nothing - L1 Button.........Change Character :......Change Category - L2 Button.........Previous Page - L3 Button.........Nothing - Start.............Nothing - Select............Nothing FIELD MAP - L analog..........Move (walk) - D-pad.............Move (run) - R analog..........Rotate Map - X Button.........Enter Town/dungeon/duct - O Button.........Cancel - /\ Button.........Open Main Menu - [] Button.........Open Basket Menu - R1 Button.........Rotate Map - R2 Button.........Nothing - R3 Button.........Display World Map - L1 Button.........Rotate Map - L2 Button.........Nothing - L3 Button.........Nothing - Start.............Toggle Minimap :......Compass Display - Select............Start Skit TOWN/DUNGEON MAP - L analog..........Move = D-pad....:......Select icon - R analog..........Nothing - X Button.........Confirm Selection/speak/search - O Button.........Cancel Selection - /\ Button.........Open Main Menu - [] Button.........Open Basket Menu - R1 Button.........Change Character Direction - R2 Button.........Use Sorcerer's Ring - R3 Button.........Nothing - L1 Button.........Change Character Direction - L2 Button.........Use Sorcerer's Scanner - L3 Button.........Nothing - Start.............Nothing - Select............Start Skit BATTLE - L analog..........Select Icon = D-pad....:......Move - R analog..........Nothing - X Button.........Normal Attack/Confirm Selection :......Avoid Down - O Button.........Use Eres/Cancel Selection - /\ Button.........Open Battle Menu - [] Button.........Defend - R1 Button.........Open or close Target Info Menu - R2 Button.........Eres Shortcut - R3 Button.........Nothing - L1 Button.........Start Climax Mode :......Perform Climax Combo (during Climax Mode) - L2 Button.........Eres Shortcut - L3 Button.........Nothing - Start.............Pause - Select............Change Control Mode ___________ .____ ___________ .____ \__ ___/___ | | .=========================. \__ ___/___ | | | | / _ \| | | 3] Characters | | | / _ \| | | |( <_> ) |___ | [sx200] | | |( <_> ) |___ |____| \____/|________\ '=========================' |____| \____/|________\ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ This is a small section I dedicated to the characters of the game. Each of them has a very different attitude, making each one of them special in their own, unique way. (All this info is from the Official Web Site.) __ (__/ ) / ) / (_/ enel Coolidge Gender: Male Age: 17 Height: 5'7" Weight: 130 lbs Weapon: Bracers Occupation: Alliance Marine Senel is a young martial artist and master of iron eres. He is also a talented sailor and swimmer, thanks to his work in the Marines of the Holy Alliance, where he helps maintain the safety of the oceans from the monsters that live there. He has a strong will, and prefers action over words, causing many people to think that he is cold and uncaring. >~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=< __ (__/ ) / ) / (_/ hirley Fennes Gender: Female Age: 15 Height: 5'1" Weight: 90 lbs Weapon: Quill Occupation: None Shirley is Senel's sister, two years younger than he. She is constantly trying to protect her brother from the dangers that his job puts him in. She has a unique body chemistry, however, that causes her to fall ill should she come into contact with salty sea wind or water. Normally she is calm and quiet, giving those around her an impression that she is frail. At the same time, though, she can be quite stubborn, and once she has decided upon a course of action, it is almost impossible to change her mind about it. >~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=< __ __) (, ) | / | /| / |/ |/ / | ill Raynard Gender: Male Age: 28 Height: 6'2" Weight: 168 lbs Weapon: Hammer Occupation: Sheriff (originally a natural historian) Will is the first person that Senel meets when he comes to the Legacy. Will is a user of crystal eres. In his role as the sheriff of Werites Beacon, a town on the Legacy, he has earned the love and respect of many people, but he insists that he is just a natural historian. He has an excellent ability for leadership and decision making, and as the eldest person in the party he is sometimes strict and sometimes kind, gaining him the trust of the others. Yet it seems he also has a weak spot... >~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=< ) ____ (__/_____) / / (______)hloe Valens Gender: Female Age: 17 Height: 5'6" Weight: 108 lbs Weapon: Sword Occupation: Knight Chloe is a young woman who uses iron eres and an unnaturally deft blade. The name of the House of Valens is well known even among other kingdoms as a once- noble family of proud knights. Perhaps due to her feelings of duty to carry on that tradition, she always forces herself to walk the true path of a knight. Nonetheless, she has an inner side that is cute and feminine, like the young lady that she is. >~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=< __ __) (, /| / / | / ) / |/ (_/ ' orma Beatty Gender: Female Age: 16 Height: 5'2" Weight: 95 lbs Weapon: Straw Occupation: Treasure Hunter Norma is a young treasure hunter that Senel meets during his adventure. She is a user of crystal eres. She is cheerful and loves jokes, and is constantly drawing laughter by making fun both of those around her and of herself. At times, however, she makes very insightful comments that show just how clearly she sees events, and that she is a person to be reckoned with. She likes to create nicknames for people that only she uses. >~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=< __ __) (, /| /| / | / | ) / |/ |_oses Sandor (_/ ' Gender: Male Age: 17 Height: 6'0" Weight: 140 lbs Weapon: Spear Occupation: Bandit Chief Moses uses iron eres and wields a spear in battle.

On the Legacy he is notorious as the boss of a group of bandits, and his many henchmen make trouble throughout the ship. While his appearance is one of barbarity, he is actually quite humane and responsible. Surprisingly, he is also quickly moved to tears. >~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=< _____) (, / / , / (__/ay Gender: Male Age: 16 Height: 5'1" Weight: 104 lbs Weapon: Dagger Occupation: Information Dealer Jay is a young man who uses iron eres, and tends to appear and disappear without notice. He is always coolly watching the situation from one step away. He is especially good at information analysis, and therefore often finds work as a strategic advisor. His tendency to let fly with cynical remarks about those around him make for a less-than-socially-acceptable personality. However, it seems that there are some to whom he will show his younger, boyish side. >~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=< _____) / / ___ / / ) (____ / rune Gender: Female Age: Unknown Height: 5'9" Weight: 117 lbs Weapon: Jar Occupation: Unknown Grune is a woman shrouded in mystery. She uses crystal eres. Never swayed by circumstances, she has the amazing ability to bring a feeling of peace and well-being to all those around her. She has lost her memory, recalling only her own name, but she still keeps in high spirits and has a smile on her face at all times. Never distraught, never emotional, she may be the most fearless member of the group. ___________ .____ ___________ .____ \__ ___/___ | | .=========================. \__ ___/___ | | | | / _ \| | | 4] Abbreviations | | | / _ \| | | |( <_> ) |___ | [sx400] | | |( <_> ) |___ |____| \____/|________\ '=========================' |____| \____/|________\ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Under construction (c'mon... bear with me ;) ___________ .____ ___________ .____ \__ ___/___ | | .=========================. \__ ___/___ | | | | / _ \| | | 5] In-depth Walkthrough | | | / _ \| | | |( <_> ) |___ | [sx500] | | |( <_> ) |___ |____| \____/|________\ '=========================' |____| \____/|________\ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Author notes: This is how it works: - My lv.: I'll be displaying recommended levels, or even my levels, for every area. On top, the original party, and below them, the reserve party. Remember that the levels are only a reference. Go at your own pace, with levels higher or lower. I am not trying to force you people to play the game the way I played. - Enemies: I'll be displaying the enemies that you will be encountering in that area. Note that when I write "(B)" next to an Enemy's name (without the quotation marks), it means that that Enemy is a Boss, "(SB)" means Sub-Boss and "(OB)" stands for Optional Boss. - Item Checklist: The Items that you'll be picking up from the various treasure chests, items that are a MUST for the game to proceed or hidden among the area will be displayed here. Note that I won't be putting the items sold from stores, nor the items random enemies' drop, so please just remember that. Also notice that next to the items you've obtained, it's the quantity of that item throughout the whole area. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= .=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=.

You'll be enjoying 90+ hours this game, so your purchase is worth it. After watching the beautiful intro to this beautiful and different game, you'll have three options at the Title Menu, which are: New Game, Continue and Options. Choose New Game and let the magic begin. *-=-=-=-=-=* +--------------------------------| Overture |---------------------------------+ '-=-=-=-=-=' After the initial scene introducing your first 2 characters, you'll have a battle with a Zephyr. Easy fight by just doing 3 hits + Demon Fist. After the battle, the scene continues showing you your third party member until you fight Mysterious Youth (impossible to win this battle). Fight this guy until Shirley ends this battle with a scream. The scene continues afterwards and you'll enter the first "dungeon" (if we can really call that). =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= =-=-=-=- 5.1] Chapter 1: In Pursuit ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ----- -=-=-=-= =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= A R E A 1 _,-^Ż\_}\________________,-.________________/{_/Ż`-._ Ż`-._/Ż}/ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ'-'ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ\{Ż\_,-^Ż F A L L I N G W A T E R ____________________________________[sx501]____________________________________ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ - My lv: Senel 1 - Enemies: Egg Bear, Peepit Chick - Recipes: Toast o~~Item Checklist: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o | Apple Gel ------------------------ 2 - (KI) ------------------------ Basket | | Orange Gel ----------------------- 2 - x ------------------------- 500 Gald | | Life Bottle ------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | o~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o "Uh... Something weird just popped out. Who is that, Will?" -- Senel Coolidge As you gain control for the very first time, head E and get 'Apple Gel' from the chest and then save your game. Follow the path until a scene with Wonder Baker (I thought it was Wonder Chef; I'll miss him, though), Mimi. You'll be seeing her a lot, and I mean A LOT through the course of the game. You'll then receive 'Basket' and a recipe to make "Toast". Anyway, keep going SE and cross the bridge to the NE when you get to it. A scene triggers at the next screen and when you regain control, follow the path SE and go up the stairs N when you get to them. Up here, get 'Orange Gel' from the chest, return down the stairs and proceed on your way W until you reach another screen. Here, use the Healing Circle (which looks like a save point, but green instead) to "heal" yourself. Also open the chest to get 'Apple Gel' and on the other side of the bridge is '500 Gald' inside another chest. When you reach a fork go E and get 'Orange Gel'. Return to the fork and go S until you reach another screen, grabbing 'Life Bottle' on the way. --=======------=======----=-=----===-----===-----------====----=-------===----- ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== A R E A 2 _,-^Ż\_}\________________,-.________________/{_/Ż`-._ Ż`-._/Ż}/ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ'-'ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ\{Ż\_,-^Ż W E R I T E S B E A C O N ____________________________________[sx502]____________________________________ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ - My lv: Senel 2 - Enemies: None o~~Item Checklist: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o | Life Bottle ---------------------- 1 - 1 ---------------------- Holy Bottle | | Apple Gel ------------------------ 1 - (KI) --------------------- World Map | o~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o "I care.

When you regain control head E and at the fork, go S to enter the next area. At the fork here, go NE to enter yet another area. Again there's a fork here, so go NW, cross the bridge and instead of entering the large building (this is the hospital, by the way), go behind it to find a chest containing 'Life Bottle'. Return 2 forks, then follow this fork S and when you come to a house to your E (it has butterflies outside, so there's no mistaking it), enter the main gate, but instead of entering, go behind it to find a chest with 'Holy Bottle' in it. Return to the road and keep going S until you reach another area. This is the shopping area. The first building you come across is the Bakery. Enter it (this is optional) and buy some Breads and Butters from the left person. Then talk to the right person to bake them. If you make 5 of them, you'll get a Derived Recipe of the Original Recipe (Toast), the Toast with Jam (See Recipe section for more details). Exit the Bakery, head N and enter the Weapon/Armor Shop. If you can afford it, buy Senel his Power Bracers at Champion and a Leather Helm at Phalanx. Exit the stores and go all the way N and enter the next area (this town is huge, well, it is the only city/town you'll be able to go to) to trigger a scene. At the end of the scene, Will joins the party. Now go up the stairs and go to the E wing of the house. Here, go up the stairs and enter the second door (the first one is closed for 8 chapters, I think). In the room, examine the E wall to get 'Apple Gel'. Now exit the house to trigger yet another scene, in which you receive 'World Map'. Now head to the shopping area and go all the way S to exit Werites Beacon. =~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~= At the World Map, a conversation with Will start mentioning the usefulness of the Ducts. Anyway, follow the dirt path and at the fork, follow it towards 3 o' clock until you reach Misty Mountains. Save before entering. --=======------=======----=-=----===-----===-----------====----=-------===----- ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== A R E A 3 _,-^Ż\_}\________________,-.________________/{_/Ż`-._ Ż`-._/Ż}/ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ'-'ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ\{Ż\_,-^Ż M I S T Y M O U N T A I N S ____________________________________[sx503]____________________________________ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ - My lv: Senel 3, Will 3 - Enemies: Peepit, Rock Lizard, Egg Bear Spirit - Recipes: Ham Sandwich o~~Item Checklist: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o | 500 Gald ------------------------- x - 2 ---------------------- Melange Gel | | Syrup Bottle --------------------- 1 - (AB) ------------------ Hard Leather | | Life Bottle ------------------------------------------------------------- 2 | o~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o "That's real good, slicing people up on assumptions." -- Senel Coolidge As you enter, go N and enter the next area.

Pass a second Chaotic Zone to get 'Melange Gel'. Go W a bit and get 'Syrup Bottle'. Pass a third and final Chaotic Zone and get 'Hard Leather' from the blue chest. Equip it on Senel and proceed to the E. In this next area, head E, save your game and keep going until a scene triggers and triggers a fight with the Knight, Chloe, but Will stops the battle 30+ seconds after it starts. The scene continues afterwards. When you regain control, head S and at the fork, follow the E path to get 'Life Bottle'. Return all the way N (where you regained control) and when you come to a fork go S to reach yet another fork. Go S through a Chaotic Zone and get 'Melange Gel' from the lone chest. Return to the previous fork and follow it E, over the bridge and examine the blue thingy moving around to have Mimi appear once again. She'll teach you "Ham Sandwich" and then go N, save your game, return to where you found Mimi and follow the bridge NW to get 'Life Bottle'. Follow the path until you reach the next area. Now simply follow the path and exit Misty Mountains. =~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~= At the World Map, simply follow the dirt path until you reach the Bandits' Lair.

Anyway, I recommend focusing your attacks on Moses first, since he'll be bothering you throwing his goddamned spears while you try attacking Giet. Using the Climax Mode really helps you deal massive dmg. on any or both enemies. Once he's gone, attack Giet with all you've got. It has an attack which downs any characters he hits, so block it if possible. Guard is your best ally in this battle, also, use items as you need and all you need. Don't worry, you'll be able to restock your item supply as soon as the battle ends. ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== After the battle, the scene continues in which someone is attacking the Bandits' Lair. But who in the world can they be? You'll receive 'Moses' Key'. Anyway, exit this room and enter the room to your E to trigger a scene. Dammit, the guy at Lumen Spring took Shirley. Afterwards, exit this room and head to the first floor (you get there by using the PB). Talk to Csaba at the far N to trigger a scene and exit the Bandits' Lair. =~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~= Crystal Forest is at 12 o' clock, so at the World Map, follow the path towards 12 o' clock and when it starts curving towards 3 o' clock, keep going towards 12 o' clock, run up a hill and when you reach a forest at the top of the hill, move directly to 3 o' clock until you get to a chest containing 'Orange Gel'.

Start by just attacking him with Senel and Chloe, while Will attacks using Lightning and Stone Blast, and healing when necessary. Also use Climax Mode to deal even more dmg. to it. Its attacks aren't anything to worry about. Its Devour Prey attacks everyone in front of it dealing 120-150 dmg. It has another attack, but isn't really anything to worry about. If you desperately need recovery, ignore Will and use an Apple Gel. ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== After the battle, the scene continues.

When you regain control, get the 4 chests on the NW side of the room, which contain: 'Life Bottle', 'Orange Gel', 'Shell Bottle' and 'Panacea Bottle'. Now go SE, pass a Chaotic Zone and get 'FOE1 Charm'. Proceed to the next area and here, follow the path until you get yet to another small open area. Pass a Chaotic Zone and get 'Melange Gel'.

From where you start, go E over a metallic bridge to find 2 chests containing 'Bun' and 'Scallop'. Now go down the metallic ramp and check the NW debris to find 'Life Bottle'. Return to the entrance, follow the path N (ignore the bridge W) and check the moving statue to have Mimi appear again and teach you "Hamburger". Return to the bridge you passed earlier and on the other side get 'Orange Gel' and 'Lettuce'. Now go NE, use the healing circle and save your game. Proceed afterwards. A scene triggers as you enter. From the entrance, go N at the fork, passing a Chaotic Zone to get 'War Hammer' and 'Fire Bolt' from the chests. Return to the fork and go W this time to reach yet another fork. Go S through a Chaotic Zone and get 'Mythril Circlet' and 'Iron Helm' from the chests. Go N from the previous fork and get 'Panacea Bottle' and 'Cape' from the chests at the end (before the bridge going E). Now cross the bridge E and get 'Life Bottle' and 'Apple Gel' at the other side. Follow the path S, down a large set of stairs, then S at the fork to get 'Orange Gel' and 'Panacea Bottle'. Now head N and go down the stairs onto the train tracks.

At the other side of the bridge, get 'Life Bottle' from the chest, then proceed S, save your game and go up the stairs. There's a scene with a friend, the Long Long Demon (that doesn't sound too friendly), remember that type of monster? It's the same type of enemy that attacked Senel at the beginning of the game. Anyway, after the scene, you'll have to fight Long Long Demon. --=======------=======----=-=----===-----===-----------====----=-------===----- BOSS: DINOWYRM -------------- - Name: Dinowyrm - Location: Secret Passage - HP: 6,549 - Race: Dinowyrm - Weight: Special - Items dropped: Climax Bottle - Elemental Info.: - Weak: None - Strong: None - Strategy: The fight against Long Long Demon can be easy if you know how to fight it. He is weak against physical weapons, so Senel and Chloe will be delivering a lot of dmg. Whenever it emits a Red FOE, get away since it can poison you, as well as lower ATK and DEF, which totally sucks (aren't these Yellow FOE effects, oh whatever, they made a mistake maybe?). Also, using a Climax Mode really helps, especially if you use a Climax Combo right away (which will deal 1/8 of its Max HP). If Senel has equipped the FOE1 Charm that you found in the Secret Passage, he'll be immune to the effects of its Red FOE. Will and Norma will always be far from Long Long Demon, so they'll focus all the healing on Senel and Chloe, but if you ever need an Apple or Orange Gel (which you probably won't), use all you need, since we'll be returning to Werites Beacon soon. ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== After the fight, watch the scene (I just love these little otters, and they'll be helping you a lot) and receive 'Gemini Shells'; and Senel and Shirley will sneak out of the party (I hate Senel these first chapters of the game.

Follow the path and when you come to a 4-way fork, go through the Chaotic Zone and get 'Ring Mail'. Go through another Chaotic Zone to reach yet another 4-way fork. Follow the path below the path you came from and get 'Apple Gel' from the chest. Return to the fork, use the Healing Circle and save point; and continue onwards to trigger a scene with The Terrors, Melanie, Stingle and Cashel. You'll have to battle Melanie, but "fight her" until she casts Eruption to end this battle. Afterwards, Commander Vaclav appears. Keep watching the scene and you'll meet Harriet. Afterwards, go W to get 'Apple Gel' and 'Melange Gel'.

While here, buy Senel a Armet Helm and Fire Bolt if you didn't pick them up earlier. Now head towards Will's house to trigger a scene.

Time to go to Jay's house, but first, let's go shopping. Follow the path and you'll be at a fork. Go SW and examine the Pac-Man at the end to have Mimi appear and teach you the recipe "Bagel with Lox". Follow the path N and you'll eventually see two shops on your left side (they're red circles with Oresoren on top). From the Weapon Shop just buy the Scallop Gear for Senel and at the Armor Shop, Lamellar Leather and Cross Helm for Senel; and for Norma, Peepit Cloak and Blue Ribbon. Now go NW from the Armor shop and enter the purplish room. Check the central junk to find 'Scallop'. Now go NE from the Weapon Shop to reach the residential area.

Follow the path until you get to my most hated thing in the whole game, the PB. o-----------------------------------------------------------------------------o | This one's easy. Use the Sorcerer's Ring to hit both crystals you see. | | Now go NE to find 6 blocks. Step on the lower middle one and shoot at the | | mirror to have the exit open. Now go down the stairs, around the blocks, | | up another set of stairs and exit the PB. | o-----------------------------------------------------------------------------o Ok now, move S along the path and at the bottom of the stairs, go W to find 'Panacea Bottle', now go all the way E to find 'Melange Gel'. Now return to the previous fork and go S, then E through a Chaotic Zone to get 'Rabbit's Foot'. Return to the previous fork and go S, get 'Orange Gel' from the lone chest, then go N for another fork. Go N up the stairs and follow the path until you reach another area. After the scene with "The Stupid Bandit", go E, then S up the stairs and get 'Flare Bottle' from the lone chest. At the next fork, go N up the stairs and proceed until you trigger a scene. Where you finally get up to Shirley, not. Now heal, save your game and proceed W to reach a fork, which you should take S up the stairs. Follow the path to reach another area. Same here, follow the linear path getting 'Night Cap', 'Life Bottle', 'Orange Gel' and 'Scallop Gel'. Also go S when you get to a Chaotic Zone to get 'Pineapple Gel'. Continue E, save your game and go E to trigger a scene and a Boss Battle. And once again, I love Moses' character. --=======------=======----=-=----===-----===-----------====----=-------===----- BOSS: CITADEL TURTLE -------------------- - Name: Citadel Turtle - Location: Waterways - HP: 7,609 - Race: Base Turtle - Weight: Massive - Items dropped: Lavender - Elemental Info.: - Weak: None - Strong: None - Strategy: Start of by using Climax Mode and a Climax Combo right away to deal 1,521 dmg. to Citadel Turtle. That's a big chunk of its HP. He really is nothing to worry about. He deals moderate dmg and is slow, so use Senel and Chloe for a lot of dmg. Also, he weaker to Crystal Eres, so Will and Norma will be dealing even more dmg than Senel and Chloe. ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== Exit the Waterways to trigger a scene and Quppo (Qutie is Norma's nickname for him).

Remember the Poppo Mk. II that almost kills Poppo in the Crags? Well, this is the newest version. "At least 10%"... hahaha. Now check the red cone behind you to learn the recipe "Red Bean Bun".

He has some lethal attacks, so make sure to not attack him for too long. Also heal as soon as your HP reaches 350 or so. When a red exclamation mark appears, start guarding if you're in front of him, because he'll launch a really damaging attack. Magic is also very powerful against this boss, because it'll f*** him up and it'll make an opening for your melee attacks. ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== Proceed through the door in front of you just to trigger scene.

It has several attacks, but none of them are that powerful. Attack it with all your character and use your Climax Combo. I really recommend using the Climax Combo near the end of the battle, because it gets tougher. It'll deal 2,800, I think.

Make sure Senel has equipped the FOE1 Charm, because Mimic Bed emits a Yellow FOE. Focus your attacks on Diva first, because she has the ability to petrify your characters, and that's not good at all. Have Chloe/Moses to focus their attacks on the same enemy as yours, so you can dispose of her as quickly as possible. Afterwards, time to kill Mimic Bed. Don't use your Climax Mode if it has more than 1/2 HP, because when it gets lower, he'll be harder. ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== Watch the scene after the battle.

If one sees you, you'll enter a battle with him and you'll be returned to the beginning of the area. Take a few moments to watch carefully the movement of the soldiers. From where you start, go NW to find 'Miracle Gel'. Return to the fork and go NE to find a chest with 'Pineapple Gel' and a chest a little bit N to find 'Lemon Gel'.

Guard is your very best friend in this battle. He has an attack in which he crosses most of the screen and downs any characters in range. He can also petrify, so make sure to have Panacea Bottles at hand. Try to keep your HP over 40% at all times, because the attacks of this boss are quite damaging. He also has an attack in which he attacks on both sides, so you're not even safe behind him. Make sure you use your Climax Mode as soon as it fills, because it'll take a great chunk of HP. ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== After the battle, I think Senel liked the hug, lol >3. =~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~= At the World Map, return to Werites Beacon if needed and then go towards 6 o'clock to reach Bridge Plain. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Area #23 - Bridge Plain sx523 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= - My lv: Senel 23, Chloe 23, Norma 23, Will 23 Moses 23 - Enemies: Captain Megant, Lich Ere, Tamer: Rank B, Irelures Sword, Lizard Warrior, Wericyes Dive, Force Ere, Lizard General, Skeleton Lizard, Archer: Rank B, Dragon (B) o~~Item Checklist: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o | Bread ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | o~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o "I'm holding back, actually.

After the quick scene and animated cutscene, you have two paths to choose from. Choose either path and follow it and some scenes will trigger as you make haste to the other side. Watch the scene as you get to halfway through the battlefield. OMFG, the Ors have joined the battlefield <:). When Quppo and Poppo reach the party, and you regain control, keep following the path and speaking to our soldiers until you get to Poppo and Quppo.

Well, they really don't possess great strength, but either way, guard whenever possible and keep HP high at all times. ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== After the battle, Jay finally joins the party (one of my favorite character in battle). =~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~= Once at the World Map, go towards 8 o'clock to the Triage Tent.

Now exit and go towards the Bridge. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Area #24 - Bridge sx524 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= - My lv: Senel 25, Chloe 25, Jay 24, Norma 25 Will 25, Moses 25 - Enemies: Fencer: Rank A, Muddy Bed, Shining Peepit, Archer: Rank A, Fear Bear, Glitter Galf, Electron Ere, Ninja Galf, Tamer: Rank A, Cure Ere, Burn Gigant, Hill Angler, Rookie Phynx, Assassin: Rank A, Darkness Lizard, Assassin: Rank S, Fencer: Rank S, Melanie/Fear Bear X (B), Cashel (B), Stingle (B), Vaclav (B) o~~Item Checklist: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o | Lemon Gel ------------------------ 1 - 2 ------------------- Panacea Bottle | | Holy Bottle ---------------------- 1 - 4 ----------------------- Orange Gel | | Melange Gel ---------------------- 3 - 2 --------------------- Guard Bottle | | Life Bottle ---------------------- 3 - 2 --------------------- Shell Bottle | | Syrup Bottle --------------------- 1 - 1 --------------------- Dinei Bottle | | Flare Bottle --------------------- 2 - (KI) ---------------------- Card Key | | Magic Lens ----------------------- 1 - 1 ------------------------- Lavender | | Sage ----------------------------- 1 - 1 -------------------- Acuity Bottle | | Miracle Gel ---------------------- 1 - 1 -------------------- Climax Bottle | o~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o "Moses, don't just stand there like an idiot with your mouth hanging open." -- Jay After the initial scene, go inside to trigger yet another scene, but with Melanie this time. She'll tell you that every Terror has secured a floor. Anyway, after you pass her and you regain control, go in the door in front of you. From here, follow the path until you get to a fork, which you should take NW to find a chest with 'Lemon Gel'. Also, check the orange flashing button to unlock a door. Now return to the fork and go NE this time to find yet another fork. Go NW, grab 'Panacea Bottle' and check the orange button behind it. Return to the fork and go NE, then SE to find another room. Grab 'Holy Bottle' and press the orange button behind it. Return to the past fork and go NE to enter the next area. Once here, go W for 'Orange Gel' and 'Melange Gel', and then E for 'Guard Bottle' and 'Life Bottle'. Now go NE and at the fork, go SE for 'Shell Bottle'. Press the orange button behind it, return to the fork and go NW and enter the door to another area. Follow the path, save your game and keep following the path to find a fork. Go NE, grab 'Orange Gel' from the lone chest and go up a bit to find a PB and three chests containing 'Syrup Bottle', 'Dinei Bottle' and 'Flare Bottle'. Now enter the PB. o-----------------------------------------------------------------------------o | Thanks to my buddy PeTeRL90 for this PB problem. The first block you come | | across, push it all the way SW and fit it in the hole. S most block push | | it W into the gap. The one just above push it W into the gap. From here, | | start pushing the blocks N until you reach the top, but there'll be one | | more hole. Return to where you appeared, go N and the lone block you see | | there, move it all the way around, fit it in the last gap and exit this | | damn PB. | o-----------------------------------------------------------------------------o After you exit, return and save your game if you want and then return here to fight Melanie! --=======------=======----=-=----===-----===-----------====----=-------===----- BOSS: MELANIE/FEAR BEAR X ------------------------- a) Melanie - Location: Bridge - HP: 16,000 - Race: Human - Weight: Middle - Items dropped: Resist Ring - Elemental Info.: - Weak: Ice - Strong: Fire b) Fear Bear X - Location: Bridge - HP: 8,000 - Race: Egg Bear - Weight: Heavy - Items dropped: None - Elemental Info.: - Weak: None - Strong: None - Strategy: Ok, this battle is way easier than the previous two. Take out Fear Bear X first with Senel's Hunter's Beat. It only has 8,000 HP, so it's not that much deal. Once it's gone, it's time for Melanie herself. Same as before, she's not too difficult, and if you have Norma with Revive, Jay and Chloe, she may pass all the battle staggered. When you can, use the Climax Mode, but don't use the Climax Combo until the very end. WHY?! Because if you use it as soon as possible, you'll only take 2,000 HP, but if you don't, you'll deal at least 5,000, so make your pick. ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== After the battle, save the game and proceed up the elevator. Another scene triggers up here, where Cashel taunts you. When you regain control, follow Cashel while some scenes trigger and you eventually catch to him back at the starting point. Also, Jay receives the title "Jay the Taunting". Save your game when possible and proceed until you have to battle him! --=======------=======----=-=----===-----===-----------====----=-------===----- BOSS: CASHEL ------------ - Name: Cashel - Location: Bridge - HP: 13,861 - Race: Human - Weight: Middle - Items dropped: Doom Charm - Elemental Info.: - Weak: Fire - Strong: Ice - Strategy: Ok, Cashel is sooo very easy. I don't even have to write down a strategy against him (I don't even have one). Make sure Norma uses Revive through the whole battle, while the other three keep Cashel busy. Also, use the Climax Mode the same way that you did against Melanie. ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== Watch the scene after the battle. You'll also obtain 'Card Key' from the hands of Cashel, so that's a plus. Enter the door in front to trigger a scene with Stingle, the last of The Terrors. Anyway, go W from here and up the ramp to find 'Melange Gel'. Return and go E this time, grab 'Life Bottle' from the chest and use both Save Point as well as the Healing Point. Now start going up the spiral ramps, getting 'Panacea Bottle' and 'Orange Gel' on your way up. Once at the next area, a scene with Stingle triggers and you'll have to face him! --=======------=======----=-=----===-----===-----------====----=-------===----- BOSS: STINGLE ------------- - Name: Stingle - Location: Bridge - HP: 14,513 - Race: Human - Weight: Middle - Items dropped: Heal Bracelet - Elemental Info.: - Weak: Lightning - Strong: Earth - Strategy: Stingle is probably the hardest boss so far. Whenever a red or yellow exclamation appears, start guarding and if possible, run. I really recommend equipping Senel with Holy Bracers because they'll heal Senel gradually. Also, turn off all of Norma's Eres except for Thunder Arrow and Revive. Bringing Jay and Chloe in this fight is good, as they are very good melee fighters. Watch their HP at all times, because they tend to get killed quite a bit. Also, same as the previous 2 bosses, use Climax Mode, but use the Climax Combo until the very end. I did 01:00.33, so, if you know what to do, everything will end nicely. ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== After the battle and scene, grab 'Flare Bottle' and 'Shell Bottle' from the chests and proceed up the elevator. Save your game at the save point and proceed through the door. In this strange room, grab 'Guard Bottle' from the W and go E to find a switch and a chest. The chest contains 'Orange Gel' and then turn the switch red. Return to the fork and go N to reach another fork. Go E for 'Life Bottle' and turn the switch red. Return to the fork and go N this time to find another chest and switch. Open the chest for 'Magic Lens' and turn the switch red to clear the path. Return to the fork and go W to reach the next area. From the first fork, go E to find a chest with 'Lavender' and a switch. Turn it blue and go W from the previous fork to find yet another chest and switch. The chest has 'Sage' and turn the switch blue. Return to the fork and go N to find another fork. Go W for 'Melange Gel' and N for 'Acuity Bottle'. Turn both switches blue and proceed to the next area. Same here, from the first fork, go E for 'Miracle Gel', also all switches are to be turned green. Return to the fork and go N to find 'Climax Bottle'. Proceed to the next area. Save before and heal before exiting. A scene triggers as you enter the next area, as well as an Animated Cutscene. --=======------=======----=-=----===-----===-----------====----=-------===----- BOSS: VACLAV ------------ - Name: Vaclav - Location: Bridge - HP: 17,415 - Race: Human - Weight: Middle - Items dropped: Emerald Ring - Elemental Info.: - Weak: Earth - Strong: Lightning - Strategy: Many won't agree with me, but I find Vaclav more dangerous that Stingle. He has an attack called Hell Strike or something like that. Beware this attack, as it will lead to more that 600 dmg. for character in range. Also have Norma use Revive during the whole battle, because you will need that. Attack with all you've got, and I really mean it this time. He resists Lightning, so Thunder Arrow is the worst pick for a Crystal Eres. Use Climax Mode the same you used it with the Terrors. ==-------======-------====-=-====---=====---===========----====-=======---===== Watch the scene and the Animated Cutscenes that come. This is one of the saddest yet most beautiful scenes of all the game, and probably one of my favorite of all the games I've played. Stella... Stella?...

What a jerk!" -- Norma Beatty After the scene at the graveyard, go to Will's house to trigger another scene. We need to give all the buddies their medal. Their locations are the following: - Chloe: She's at the hospital. She'll receive the title "Mooching Knight". - Moses: At the park. The N side of town. - Norma: In the Inn. - Grune: At the fountain. Return to Will's house and you'll find Jay eavesdropping a conversation. Also, Jay receives the title "Jay the Spineless". After the scene with Fen-Fen, go to the store and upgrade the equipment of all characters. Also stop by the Item Shop and restock your item supply. Examine the cyan barrel in middle of the room to find Mimi, who teaches you "Melon Bread" (I know how to make Orange Bread and let me tell you... it tastes good). =~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~= Once at the World Map, go 6 o'clock, cross the shallow area and on the other side, cross the bridge and follow the path towards 8 o'clock until you get to the Village of the Ferines. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Area #26 - Village of Ferines sx526 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= - My lv: - Enemies: o~~Item Checklist: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o | - | | - | | - | | - | | - | | - | | - | | - | | - | o~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o "" -- ___________ .____ ___________ .____ \__ ___/___ | | .=========================. \__ ___/___ | | | | / _ \| | | 7] Latest Update | | | / _ \| | | |( <_> ) |___ | [sx700] | | |( <_> ) |___ |____| \____/|________\ '=========================' |____| \____/|________\ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ = Version 0.2 (August 18th, 2010) - Updated the layout a little. ___________ .____ ___________ .____ \__ ___/___ | | .=========================. \__ ___/___ | | | | / _ \| | | 8] Closing | | | / _ \| | | |( <_> ) |___ | [sx800] | | |( <_> ) |___ |____| \____/|________\ '=========================' |____| \____/|________\ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ~-~ ~-~ ~-~ 8.1] Credits ~-~ ~-~ ~-~ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-.sx801.-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= '-----' 1.
