Copyright Magus 1999. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1) Introduction --------------------------------------------------------------------- This is Magus' Seiken Densetsu 3 walkthrough. This is a excellent game and is probably Squaresoft's best SNES RPG. To all of you English/American/Australian people, this is Secret of Mana 2. In this game you can pick three characters out of six to make up your party, and each character has their own storyline. This walkthrough is still in progress and will be updated frequently. To get in touch, e-mail me at shinra9@yahoo.com. My ICQ# is 34601221. My webpage is http://jump.to/magus --------------------------------------------------------------------- 2) Class Change System --------------------------------------------------------------------- Well, it's the fabled class change system which has made this game quite big in the RPG world. All it is is a different way of gaining levels, or if you like, a more interesting way. Each character can go to the Dark or Light side, and you get to have two class changes in the game. One at level 18 and the other at level 38. Before I go deeper, I will also point out the different level gaining system. Every time you level up, you will be presented with a menu to level up different attributes of yourself. This is what each attribute does: STRENGTH - Increases your Attack Power and damage done by Tech Attacks. AGILITY - Increases your ability to dodge enemies' attacks. VITALITY - Enemies' attacks do less damage, and your HP increases. INTELLIGENCE - Becomes easier to avoid enemies' attack magic, and lowers the damage dealt to you. SPIRIT - Indirect magic's (ie. recovery magic or sabers) effectiveness increases. LUCK - Chances of a critical hit become greater; there are also less traps in the item roulette when you have a higher Luck rating I would level my intellgence and vitality more than other (maybe apart from strength) so that I can cast more spells and have more life, but if you have Angela or Carlie it is quite wise to upgrade your strength unless you want to depend on just spells. Now for more explanation on class changes: Your character can go through two stages of class change, to either go to the Light or Dark, and then again to the Light or Dark. Here, look at this: 1st 2nd Class Class Change Change Light-Light Light / / / \ / \ Light-Dark / / Normal \ \ Dark-Light \ Dark / \ / \ \ Dark-Dark Get it? Now I will give you a brief description on each character's classes: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Duran --------------------------------------------------------------------- Duran is an OK character. He has quite a high one hit attack power, but takes ages to recover from each hit. He learns a few saber and healing spells, but the healing classes are less favourable. Honestly, if you want to do his quest, pick Angela as she is a better character. Knight-(Light) Learns Heal Light and gets the ability to carry a shield. Lower power than the Gladiator. Nothing much new. Paladin (Light Light) Duran's 2nd best class, gets Saint Saber, Heal Light, best shield and good fullscreen power attack. His best Light class. Lord (Light Dark) Sucks. Heal Light, Tinkle Rain and a low attack power. Only good if you don't already have a healer in your group, as he can multitarget Heal Light. Gladiator (Dark) Cool. Learns all elemental sabers, has good attack power, but no shield. None of his dark classes gets a shield. A good starter. Duelist (Dark Dark) Kinda good, most powerful but useless (almost) Dark Saber spell. Is quite good but Swordmaster is better. Swordmaster (Dark Light) Best class, learns Moon and Leaf Saber, but hasn't got an extremely high attack power. Bad thing is that he can't cast both of the Moon and Leaf Sabers on one person. The best class. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Angela --------------------------------------------------------------------- A very powerful magician who may have a low attack power, but her magic spells make up for it. Learns five magic spells before her class change, and when she changes she gets powerful spells. Sorceress (Light) Better than Delvar as she learns more magic earlier, but crappy attack power. Uh, generally stay away from the Light side. Grand Deviner (Light Light) Sucks so bad, I won't even tell you about it, except for Double Spell, which lets you cast two spells at once at a heavy time cost. Plus, still a low attack power and she can't multitarget spells! Arch Mage (Light Dark) The Deviner with different spells, and still sucks with attacks. Delvar (Dark) Quite useful with a good attack power, but only learns one extra spell (Dark Force). Meigus (Dark Dark) Most powerful magic user with Ancient and plenty other ones, but slow casting. Is still a good choice. Rune Master (Dark Light) Best class, no questions asked. Has a cool Death Spell, only bad thing is that she can't multitarget some of her good spells. Still, the only class with Level 3 spells, this is the way to go with Angela. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Kevin --------------------------------------------------------------------- Definetly the best fighter in the game, and can also heal your party. At night he transforms into a werewolf which makes him more powerful than he is in the day. He also has more than one tech attack per class, which is cool. A very good choice. Monk (Light) His first light class gets a heal spell and a spell which makes him powerful through day. Good power attacks, but normal attack power is lower than his Dark counterpart. God Hand (Light Light) The God Hand's attacks are pretty powerful, and he has quite a few good spells. Make that one, Aura Wave. Still not the best Light class. Warrior Monk (Light Dark) Definetly Kevin's best class, although he doesn't hit as hard as the others. He gains the cool Leaf Saber and the ability to multitarget Heal Light. Bashkar (Dark) No spells, but excellent attack power. Dervish (Dark Dark) Second strongest class, learns Moon Saber and has a good attack power. But not as powerful as the Death Hand. Death Hand (Dark Light) A brilliant class, though not the best. Best fighter, learns Energy Ball and becomes the strongest wolf at night. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Charlotte/Carlie --------------------------------------------------------------------- Two names? Yeah, from what I've heard. Anyway, she is the best healer in the game and can also double as a good dark magic user. A fun character, learns Heal Light and Tinkle Rain before class change. Priestess (Light) Learns four elemental sabers, holy ball and the ability to multitarget Heal Light. She doesn'r have quite a high attack power, but is a better choice than the Enchantress. Bishop (Light Light) If you pick her as your main character, this is the class to go, as the Turn Undead spell is very effective. She also gets Saint Saber and more fun spells, at the cost of low attack power. Sage (Light Dark) Pretty much sucks. She is just an improvement over the Priestess by getting multitarget on all her spells. Enchantresss (Dark) Weak spells, weak summons, although her later classes are better. Evil Shaman (Dark Dark) Gets some pretty cool summons, and a whole slew of fun spells, with the best attack power of any of her classes. But she doesn't really have any good things. Necromancer (Dark Light) Her best class if you aren't the main character. Gets the Black curse, cool multitarget healing spells, and some crappy spells. A good choice, if not the best. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Hawkeye/Hawk --------------------------------------------------------------------- A awesome character, who is many people's favourite. He can attack twice in one swing, learns very good spells, and has the most variety of any character in the game. Ranger (Light) Gets a fullscreen tech, and a few weak traps. He isn't very powerful, but his final classes make up for it. Wanderer (Light Light) Not much attack power, but gets heaps of caning spells. An OK choice. Rogue (Light Dark) Many different skills make this class a favourite. Good attack power, but some of his cool spells are weak. Still the best Light class. Ninja (Dark) Better in attack than the Ranger, and has a few cool ninjitsu attacks, which lower stats as well as deal damage. Nightblade (Dark Dark) My favourite Hawk class as he gets heaps of cool jitsu style attacks , a great tech and he looks pretty damn cool. Ninja Master (Dark Light) Gains no more skills over the Ninja, but he can multitarget things, throw multiple Shurikens and has the highest attack power. I still like Nightblade better though. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Lise/Riesz --------------------------------------------------------------------- Another two named character! Good at fighting and has some pretty cool stat changing magic. Pick Light, it upgrades your stats, and Dark, it downgrades the enemies. Valkyrie (Light) Learns some stat-up spells, but she can't multitarget them. Rune Maiden is a better choice, but her later classes make up for this. Vanadies (Light Light) A CRAPPY class. Only good thing is her awesome fullscreen attack, but all her spells are pretty lame. Star Lancer (Light Dark) A very impressive class with probably the best summon in the game. Only bad thing is that she doesn't have a fullscreen tech. This is her best class. Rune Maiden (Dark) Better than Valkyrie, but only just. Good spells, attacks, and nothing bad. Fenrir Knight (Dark Dark) Best Dark class, and has some very good stat-down spells as well as a cool summon. Dragon Master (Dark Light) Pretty much sucks, and nothing much is good with here. Vanadies in Dark mode. Whatever path you take is up to you. This is just a guide! --------------------------------------------------------------------- 3) Spells --------------------------------------------------------------------- Now, whenever you class change you are bound to get at least one spell.

Plant it and you will get an item. This is what you should do when you have collected the ???? seeds for you final class change. Once you have done your final change, the seeds can also be used in battle for an effect. -Some suggested groups (and avoidable ones) Angela, Kevin, Riesz This works really well if you have Riesz as the Fenrir Knight and Angie as the Rune Master, as Riesz can lower their stats for Angie to kill 'em. Kevin of course can whoop some ass while healing. Hawkeye, Kevin, Riesz Having the three best attackers is quite a good prospect, especially if one can heal. Kevin as the God Hand is good (he can cast Aura Wave) and Hawkeye as either the Rogue or Nightblade would kick ass. Riesz as the Star Lancer again will work well, raising stats and casting Marduk. Duran, Angela, Carlie Could you get any worse? It's better in some classes, but avoid the light for Duran and Angela, and the Sage for Carlie. You don't want those classes, as they suck bad. Attack isn't that good, apart from Duran but he is slow. Healing should be fine as well as offensive spells, but apart from that, it's not that good. Duran, Carlie, Riesz Fairly mediocre, but with Duran as Sword Master, Carlie as Bishop and Riesz as Star Lancer (AGAIN?????), this works quite well. Sword Master can cast those offensive saber spells, Carlie can heal while Riesz can up the stats as well as cast some good spells. Hawkeye, Duran, Carlie Variety is the key. With Duran as Sword Master, he can use those awesome saber spells. Carlie as the Necromancer can heal and kill, while Hawk as the Wanderer can use cool spells (like Aura Wave). Variety, variety, variety. Hawkeye, Angela, Carlie This group is the one I used, and it didn't fail me. Hawk as Nightblade, Carlie as Bishop and Angela as Rune Master rocked. Hawk was extremely useful with his ninjitsu, and his attack power (SPLIT-IMAGE SLICE ROCKS!), Carlie had most of the good sabers and healing, while Angela had the power spells. An excellent group. By the way, if you pick Carlie as your third character, you get three people to beat the first boss with. Since you meet her on your way through the Cave Of Waterfalls, and you will already have yur two characters, you get three to play with! Pretty cool. -If you picked Duran/Angela on your quest, you can meet the one and only.....BLACK RABITE!!!!!!?!!!! Yes, you heard me, the BLACK RABITE!!!!!!! Anyway, when you are in the Dragon Hall, after you have defeated Scarlett Magician, head NW of Black Knight's room as far as you can. You'll end up walking down a empty vertical corridoor. (Follow it south and if you see a ramp where you can go down but not up, you're here). Anyway, push on the wall on the left, and meet................the BLACK RABITE! Details for beating it will come soon! -These tips sent in by David The first one is, you *can* exchange armor, weapons, etc. between characters in the game, hit menu, and trade weapons in the top-center menu screen. The second on is, against the tree mana beast,sometimes one of the 2 pumpkin heads will try and bite one of your characters. If you quickly switch control to the targeted character, you can walk around in circles forever, while your other 2 characters pound on the boss! He won't attack while you do this!! Thanks for the tips David! And don't forget, all of you out there can send in your tips too! -These tips sent in by Howard Shen When planting weapon/armor seeds, there's no reason to change front characters. To exchange equipment, just go to the menu by pressing Y, press up to go to the INV option and hit A. You can now move weapons, armor,helmets, rings, and shields between characters. For the ???? seeds, sometimes no matter how many times you reset it, it will always give you the same thing. The key is to get a bunch of seeds, 5 is a good number. Just take the first item, and sometimes the second item is something you might want. The more seeds you have, the more you can plant at once. They'll usually go through a cycle. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 5) Walkthrough --------------------------------------------------------------------- Introdution --------------------------------------------------------------------- Duran --------------------------------------------------------------------- When you have selected all of your characters, you will appear at the King's Castle (or something). Let the knight there kill you, and then when you get restored it's time to kill him. A handy little tactic is when the blue attack bar at the bottom of the screen turns green, press B and you will do a tech attack. Anyway, once you have beaten him, go with the flow until the Kingdom of Altena attacks. Follow the red robed mage, and strike him a few times. Then he will laugh at you, and say something about Magic. Then, when the king leaves, talk to him. Leave the castle and head down to the cave, get through there and board the ship. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Angela --------------------------------------------------------------------- Angela will start out trying to learn magic. Her instructor will tell her that she will need to practice. Go to the throne room and talk to the woman and the man in the red robe. The man will beam you out. Let the two monsters beat you. Then you'll be in Elfrand, and after that you will head to Judd. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Kevin --------------------------------------------------------------------- Watch the scene, and yhen you'll see Kevin and Carl. Kevin will tell Carl to howl. When Find your way back to the Beast Kingdom castle. Carl will morph and start attacking you. Let Carl win. Then Kevin will become a werewolf and beat Carl, killing him. Go to the castle and go out the door on the right. Then go down, and outside to the outer part of the caslte, and go to the left door. Speak to Lugar. Go back out and go up through the middle. Then you will hear people talking. He breaks through the wall and attacks. The king will punch Kevin over the wall, then Kevin will go to Judd (after getting through the Moonlight Forest). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Carlie --------------------------------------------------------------------- You'll start out in a big field of flowers. Later, you see Heath talk with the Priest. Charlotte will try to follow Heath, and bounces off a little yellow spring thing. Then, she'll see the DeathJester warp Heath away and vows to save him. Unlike all the other characters, she will head to Astoria, and not Judd. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Hawkeye --------------------------------------------------------------------- You'll start out with Nikita and 2 others sneaking though a town, and stealing some money. The king will want to talk with you. When you go, you'll meet General Isabela. After that, go find prince Eagle, who is in the right wing of the castle. Head back to see Isabela. Isabela will trun Eagle into an evil fiend, who will try and kill you. Strike Evil Eagle while trying to aviod his sttacks. After you badly wound Eagle, he'll be back to normal. Isabel kills Eagle with Fire magic, and jails you for assasinating Eagle. Then she curses Eagle's sister. You decide to go to Wendel and see if the Priest can remove Jessica's curse. You go to Judd. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Riesz --------------------------------------------------------------------- You'll fight a needle bird. Then, you'll go to the Rolante castle. Elliot, her brother, will be missing. Talk to the old lady named Alma. Then you'll see Elliot forced to trip the control of the gales. Go to the lower left part of the castle to save. The ninja's of Naba'al beat Elliot up when you try to save him. Run to the king. Then Naba'al will invade . Then you will go to Judd. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Judd/Rabite Forest --------------------------------------------------------------------- Get off the ship, and go down. Then head to the inn and rest. Tell him that you want to wake up in the night. The when it is night, head out of Judd. Note: All the other characters are in this town. You can't get them though. Fight your way through the Rabite Forest, level up if you feel it is necessary. Then where it has a path going to the right, go there and keep going until you hit the barrier. Then backtrack, go down and into Astoria. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Astoria --------------------------------------------------------------------- Talk to some people, buy whatever you feel like buying, and then sleep at the Inn. You will be woken up in the middle of the night, by a blue orb thingy flying around. Get out of the Inn, and go to the lower right hand corner of the town. Talk to the thing and follow it out of Astoria. Keep following the orb thingy, fighting enemies as you go. Halfway there will be a Mana Goddess who will restore you, and save your game. Then when you catch up with the orb thingy, it will reveal itself to be a fairy. Go back to Astoria, and find out that it has been trashed by the Beastmen. Leave the town, and head back to the place which was blocked off with a barrier. There, you will meet your second character. Keep going right and the fairy will unblock the cave, and you will go in. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Cave of Waterfalls/Wendel Holy City --------------------------------------------------------------------- Pretty straightforward. Go down, use the goddess, go down, left, up and left. Halfway you will see a girl, rescue her and watch. Then continue on your way out and head to Wendel. At Wendel, first buy whatever you need, the go North and speak with the King. Listen carefully, and then head back to the caves. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Cave of Waterfalls --------------------------------------------------------------------- Go back through here, gaining levels and restoring your life at the Goddess when needed. Then go one screen down from the Goddess, and go left. Select the fairy, and it will get you across. Fight through here, and two more screens up, you can go left to a Mana Goddess. Pick right to continue on, keep on fighting, and meet the boss. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Full Metal Hagger --------------------------------------------------------------------- Aim for the eyes and soon it will be dead. Heal with Round Drops as needed (also remember the green bar technique). Then, you will recieve Wisp. Raise your intelligence levels a little higher than the others so that you can learn spells. A path will open up. Head there, and some bad people will push you off. You will wake up in the jail cells of Jad. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Jad Fortress/Maiya --------------------------------------------------------------------- Go up to the wall and talk with the person (your next party member). You will trick the guard and escape. Talk to the Goddess, and head upstairs. I suggest you build up you new party member's levels as they are quite low (4 compared to 10). Fight fight fight, and go out. Head to the right and board the ship to Maiya. Get off, and when you enter town, head to the rightmost house with a boy outside. Talk to the man inside (Bon Voyage) and look at the cannon. Then go out, buy what is neccessary, and head left to the Golden Path. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Golden Path/Maiya --------------------------------------------------------------------- Fight your way through here, and when you reach a cave opening, go in (Cleft of the Earth). Save your game, go into the cave, and across the bridge. Then you will meet some people, and have to fight some robots. Head back to Maiya afterwards and talk to Bon Voyage again. Then he will mention that he needs some gunpowder. Now speak with EVERYONE in the village, and head back to the Cleft of the Earth. Talk to the goddess and choose to use Wisp. A path will open up, enter and head to the Dwarven Village. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dwarf Village/Dwarven Tunnel --------------------------------------------------------------------- Buy what you need, and speak with basically everyone. Go into the item shop and talk to the person there. Then return to the path before the entrance, and go right. A dwarf will be there, and he will blow open a hole for you, leading you to the Dwarven Tunnel. Go east through the opening, east again, west (upstairs), west, and east behind the wall. Go east again and talk to Watts, say no to both his offers (unless you really want it, it's just a waste) then go back west. Go south. Follow the one way path until it branches off down and west. Go down, and save your game. Go north and west, and continue until you face off with the boss. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Jewel Eater --------------------------------------------------------------------- This boss is quite hard. You cannot dodge his attacks, so just keep attacking him and healing. After you beat it, you will get Gnome and Watts will give you the gunpowder for free. If you want to level up, then don't warp out. You will go back to Maiya. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Maiya --------------------------------------------------------------------- Do what you want, and then head to Bon Voyage. He will shoot you into the Molebear Highland. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Molebear Highland --------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a quite annoying place, all you have to do is pop into the holes and you will appear somewhere else. The way I got my way out was by going south all the time, until I reached a cave (which was the Cleft of the Earth!!!). From there, I backtracked north and took any path which went north or to the right. It was very close by. Anyhow, you should reach Forsena. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Forsena --------------------------------------------------------------------- You are the middle of an invasion by Altena! Go up into the castle, and head up until you reach a room with inly two choices: Left or Right. Go into either door, and keep going north until you meet the king. Hit Koren once and he will go away. The king will thank you and tell you about the Mana Stones/Spirits. Leave the castle, but talk to Bon Jour on the way out. But whatever you need, and go back to the castle where Bon Jour will fire you to Maiya. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Maiya --------------------------------------------------------------------- Head through the Golden Path until you reach Byzel. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Byzel --------------------------------------------------------------------- Get whatever you need, and if you want go to the Inn, sleep and tell him to wake you up at night for access to the Black Market! You'll need to come back later anyway. Catch a ship to Palo when you are done. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Palo/Path to the Heavens --------------------------------------------------------------------- Buy things, and head left to the Path to the Heavens. Now if I remember right, go up, up, right, up, right, up, right, right and you should be at a cave entrance. Or, when you see the path leading up to a triangular crack in the ground, go right from there. Go over the bridge into the cave, and out to the flower garden. You will fall asleep, and wake up in the Amazon hideout. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Amazon Hideout/Byzel --------------------------------------------------------------------- Talk to everyone, then go to the upper right door to listen to a meeting. Leave, go outside and talk to the Amazon to launch you to Byzel. Rest at the Inn, wake up at night and enter the Black Market. Buy the Chibiko Hammer from the kid standing in the barrels, then hitch a ship ride to Judd. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Judd/Rabite Forest --------------------------------------------------------------------- Get out of Judd, and in the Rabite Forest keep going down until you reach a signpost. Go left and follow that path until you can't go any further. Speak to the statue, and use the Chibiko Hammer on everyone and go into the upper left corner. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Cerbokkle Village --------------------------------------------------------------------- Talk to the old guy, then talk to everyone else, don't forget to talk to the people in the houses. Then talk to the old guy again and he will reveal himself as Don Peringon. After that, go back to Judd and grab a ride to Palo. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Palo/Path to the Heavens --------------------------------------------------------------------- Go to the path, and back to the triangular crack place. Head north until you go into the Corridoors of Wind. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Corridoors of Wind --------------------------------------------------------------------- Now in here, you have to hit switches to change the flow of wind. Now you should be able to get through here pretty easy, and if you get stuck, just build up your levels. You will eventually come back outside to a long path. Do not enter the first cave on the right with the Mana Stone, keep going down, enter the cave for a Mana Goddess. Then go back to the Mana Stone, go right to meet Jinn and the Boss, Tzenker. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Tzenker --------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a snap, especially if you have Angela and her spells. Hit it when it is in the south eastern corner. Once you have beaten it, talk to Jinn, and return to the big, puzzling cave. Look for an entrance in the northeast corner (past the grate). It will blow you back to the entrance (near). Now get out and go back to Palo for supplies (optional), or the Amazon Hideout for your next adventure. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Amazon Hideout/Rolante --------------------------------------------------------------------- Meet back at the flower patch. You will see the others. Use Jinn, and the soldiers of Rolante will fall asleep. You will then be taken to Rolante. The enemies here are quite hard, but if you feel like it, level up here when you reach the statue (I got to Level 16). From the entrance, go northeast, northeast, east, up the stairs, south, north, east, south, east, east, north, north, south, left door, right door, and then the middle room. Here is a Mana Goddess, who will prove invaluable to your level-building. Level 12 is good. Go south from that room, and north, and get ready for your toughest fight yet: Genova. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Genova --------------------------------------------------------------------- I really hate this boss as it spits out shapeshifters which keep changing froms when they die. Let your other two characters deal with them, while you keep hitting Genova. If they get hurt bad, help them, and vure as needed. Remember that once Genova dies, the shifters die too. Heal, go north to face Bill and Ben. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill and Ben --------------------------------------------------------------------- Much like Masa and Mune from Chrono Trigger, these guys are moderately hard. They morph into one and split quite often. Keep healed, and when they joined whack the absolute crap through them. They are easier than Genova, so you should be done soon. Go up, and talk to Isabella. Watch the scene, and exit. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Path to the Heavens/Palo --------------------------------------------------------------------- You will be outside Rolante. Head south, and back down to Palo (more level building). When in Palo, stock up and board the ship for free, but there's one catch....it's a ghost ship! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Ghost Ship --------------------------------------------------------------------- You will wake up halfway in the night. Go south, east and south to a three door corridoor. Head to the middle and kill the enemies for items, or just go to the left one. Go to the book case and talk to the books in this order: Right, Left, Middle, Left. Go to the right. Put the character you don't like at the front by pressing SELECT. Talk to the book and your character will be cursed. Your other two will run off, and you will have to free him/her. Get out, go back and take the northeastern staircase (one or two rooms after the 3 door corridoor). Go left, up, south and finally, the door to the left. Face Gorva. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Gorva --------------------------------------------------------------------- A sinch with Angela. If you do have her, keep casting Holy Ball until MP is gone, then let him kill you, use Angel's Grail and repeat. Otherwise, just heal and keep hitting him when he is in range. After that, Shade will come out and you will have a new spirit to use. Your other character will also come back. Then after the story, you collapse and end up on Volcanic Island Bucca. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Volcanic Island Bucca --------------------------------------------------------------------- First, go northwest and north to see Bookasboo, the turtle. Then head back, northeast,west east, south, west, south, north, west, south, west, north, north, north, and east into the Dark Priest Village. Here, do what is necessary and heal. This is a great place to gain levels. Then exit.Go south, northwest, north, west, and west. Now look at the rock in the upper left corner. Use Gnome. Enter the opened cave. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Seashore Cave --------------------------------------------------------------------- Very hard place but I built up to Level 18 here. Once you learn Evil Gate with Angela, the enemies are a snap.twice, south, east, south, and west. You'll find yourself at a golden statue. Use it and the nearby rooms to build levels if you want. From the statue, go south, west (you must destroy all the enemies for a path to open up), west, south, northwest, west, west, and save. Go north twice, and speak to Jagan, another servant of the Dark Prince. After his short speech, the volcano erupts, but the turtle you saw from earlier saves the day by carrying you to a beach near Maia. Go west and north onto the golden road, then go east into Maia. Save at the inn, and then restock your items. Now talk to Bon Voyage and be launched to Forcena. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Forcena --------------------------------------------------------------------- Go into the castle, speak with the King. He will blabber on (but listen), and give you a flute to summon the turtle Bookasboo. Go back out, take a cannon to Maia, and get back on the Golden Path. In the first or so screen, go down and reach the beach. Use the flute. Now you will be riding on Bookasboo. Head north or so to the big ice place, and look for a beach to land on (in a bay). You will enter Snow city Elrand. If you are on Level 18 or more, you should probably head back to Palo and up to the Wind Mana Stone to get your first class change. Anyhoos, buy what is needed (a shield for Duran!), then head to the lower right hand corner to enter Sub-Zero Snowfield. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Sub-Zero Snowfield --------------------------------------------------------------------- An excellent place to build up (I got to 22). Go south, west three times, south, west twice, south, northwest (gray statue, saves), north, west, north twice, west twice, south twice, and east for a goddess. Now build up to at least 17 and head west and west. You will face more Machine Golems. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Machine Golems --------------------------------------------------------------------- HARD. At the start they launch stuff at you, so duck. Use wind spells and heal constantly. They attack and have a long rest before they attack again. Try your best, and a class change would help. After you are done, head west and into the cave. Talk to the stone and you will get Undine. Now, if you haven't already done it, it's class change time! See the guide above for details. Go back to the beach, summon Bookasboo, and off you go! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Sand City Sultan --------------------------------------------------------------------- Surf to the southeast dot on the map, and to the left of it. Land on the beach, and enter Sand City Sultan. Stock up (Honey Jars), do what is needed, and go east to the Desert of Scorching Heat. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Desert of Scorching Heat --------------------------------------------------------------------- For me, a very easy place to gain levels. I got from 21 to 24 here. While fighting enemies, go east, south, east, south, south, south, east, east and east. This takes you to a town (Oasis City Dean). Save, rest, etc., and level build if you want. If not, then go west, west, west, and west. Then go east, south and east. Now it's time for friggin' Bill and Ben again. Damn. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill and Ben --------------------------------------------------------------------- I hate these two. They are extremely hard, and if you haven't reached Level 20 yet, and had your first class change, TURN BACK NOW! Okies, the way to defeat these is to hammmer them as hard as you can when they are as one, because when they are single they will whoop, I mean WHOOP yo ass. Cast Heal Light if you can, heal with items, raise your stats, just STAY ALIVE.... After that ordeal, you will not see them again! (YAY!) Go down into the Valley of Flames. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Valley of Flames --------------------------------------------------------------------- Another good place to build up your levels. Go south, south, east, south, east, north, and west. Mana Goddess is here, then go east. Bla bla bla, and then go east. Talk to Bigieu and she will go away. Talk to the stone and gain the next spirit, Salamando. Now get out of here, back to Sand City and take the turtle to dot in the center of the map, look for a beach nearby and head there. Enter Moonlight City Mintos. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Moonlight City Mintos/Moonlight Forest --------------------------------------------------------------------- Once you are in here, stock up on items, and grab new weapons and armors if needed. Then head to one of the paths leading west, and you will enter the Moonlight Forest. Inside, you will find extremely easy enemies who will give you plenty of experience. Level 25, coming up! (You only need to be above 20, but I am a freak with lots of time on my hands). Head south, south, northwest, west, west, south, west and north. Watch the scene and then fight Lugar. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Lugar --------------------------------------------------------------------- Easy, huh? Wait until he casts Moon Saber. Now he's hard. Just try to pummel him as hard as you can, as once his combos start, they don't stop. Try this: Main character's power attack, spell, spell, another power attack and repeat. Never let a character die, if they do, revive them. Hope you survive... After that, Luna will appear and you get it. Then head up into the castle and talk to the stone. Now get back to Mintos, and summon Bookasboo to take you to the Moonlight Forest. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Moonlight Forest/Diorre --------------------------------------------------------------------- Swim near the last dot, and land. Use Luna at the bushes and you are in. Talk to the character there and wait until night. Then head on in. Build up to 23 or higher here. Now since it is night, follow the red flowers to get to Diorre (south, south, west, south, south, east, west, west and north. Now you should be in Diorre. Now since no-one will speak to you, go to the mansion in the lower left hand corner. Enter, go up and talk to the king. Now you will hear some crap, apart from "go to the Goddess and use Luna". Now the people will talk to you. New weapon and armor time, plus items, and now head back out. Go east, north and west to reach the statue. Talk to it, use Luna and a path will open up. Go west, west, north, and north. Now meet Gildervine. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Gildervine --------------------------------------------------------------------- Be on 23 or higher. This is a snap. Just attack and use super combos to win. Now you will recieve Dryad. Head back out and your next stop on Booka will be the Island of Oblivion. It is the middle small island on the map. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Island of Oblivion --------------------------------------------------------------------- Go west, south and Faerie will try to open the Gate to the Holyland. Now you will see a sequence of three countries heading to it, and after all that, go to Palo. It's on the southeastern continent somewhere. Or you could just catch a ship from Judd. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Palo/Path to the Heavens/Rolante/Summit of the Skies --------------------------------------------------------------------- Go back to the Rolante castle, and talk to the person next to the stairs. She will open up a path for you. Go east, northeast, west, north, east and south. You will climb a path and meet Flammie, your air travel. Now sit back and watch it enter the Mana HolyLand. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mana Holyland --------------------------------------------------------------------- You will see bodies of those who have perished before you. Note:level building time. Now head north, west, north, west, north (on lilies), south west, north, and north again. You will be at the statues. Go east twice, northwest, and north. At the top of the screen will be the Sword of Mana. Then Faerie will disappear. Open the chest to get Wind Drum. Now backtrack and on the way you will meet some more characters. At one point, you'll meet the Darkshine Knight, who'll tell you that an evil infiltrated the Dragon Hole and assassinated their leader, the Dragon Emperor. After that, the knight killed Koren, and will soon disappear himself, because he was brought back to life by the Dragon Emperor (Note: This will not happen on this quest, only if you picked someone other than Duran/Angela).Continuing on, you'll meet Biguie. It seems that the Dark Prince sacrifice himself to bring the Dark Mana Stone out of another dimension, and that with the sowrd of mana, he could be revived. But the same evil that killed the Dragon Emperor sealed the Prince in the nether world. Bigiue, who loved the Prince, killed Jagan, and then took her life as well. (Note, this will not happen if Hawkeye/Lise is your main character). At the entrance you will find Koren and the Darkshine Knight. Call Flammie and get out of here. Head to Altena, near the snowfields (only if you are Duran/Angela). If you are Kevin/Carlie, go to the Beast Kingdom, if you are Hawkeye or Riesz, then it go to Navarre. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Altena (Duran/Angela) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Land in a town, and buy new weapons and stuff that you need. Level-building area is near..... When you are done, head up through the middle archway, where the two people are standing. Go north through the left door. Go north. Go south through the second door from the left. Go up the stairs, go north, go north, go north through the center door, go north through the right door. The Red Magician will be in this room. Watch the scene, and the nice/NOT story that the faerie tells you about the mana stones and the beasts that have been released. Now head to Rolante. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Beast Kingdom (Kevin/Carlie) Thanks to Amar Kishan for this part! --------------------------------------------------------------------- The enemies here are hard. Level up quite a bit here. Go north, northeast, east, south, west, south, south, north. After the scene, go north and follow that path. Talk to the Beast King, listen and then head on Flammie to Rolante. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Navarre (Hawkeye, Riesz) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Fly to near the Valley of Scorching Heat, and land near the big castle. Go up, up, and you should be outside again. Go into the 1st door you see for a goddess. Now head to the northeast. Enter. Go up, and up again. Head up the right stairway, and follow that path to the door/stairs at the end. Head up through the middle door, up again, and take the door on the left. Now head up, down the stairs and into a confrontation with Bigieu. Watch the story, and head to Rolante to beat the first Mana Beast. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Wind Mana Beast --------------------------------------------------------------------- Rolante is the easternmost red dot. Head back up to where you got Jinn, through the Corridoor of Wind, etc. (read the previous parts). Build up to 25+ here, and save at the goddess before entering the place where the Mana Stone used to exist. Now head right and Flammie will be called, so you can fight Dangaard. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dangaard --------------------------------------------------------------------- This battle is really cool, as the views change from over head to uh, you watching. This wind beast is very easy though, if you use Gnome's spells. If you have diamond saber, cast it, and if you don't, pound him constantly as well as healing. After you take off 1/4 of his life, the view will change, and once this has happened three times, you're close to beating him...... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Fire Mana Beast --------------------------------------------------------------------- Fly to Oasis Village Deen (near the Valley of Flames). Buy new stuff, then head to the Valley of Flames. An excellent place to build levels, close to 30 since the enemies are tougher. Head to the Goddess (mentioned before), and then go north, south, north, north, east twice, south, and east three times. Now go east, south, east, and northeast to fight Xan Bie, the fire mana beast. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Xan Bie --------------------------------------------------------------------- Another extremely easy boss. Cast Ice Sabers on your party if possible, as he will use Flame Saber on you. He has multiple forms, and when he is in the floating fire form, you cannot harm him with physical attacks. If you have Angela and Ice Smash, this is easy, if you have Ice Saber, this is easy, if not, then it will be very hard. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Ice Mana Beast --------------------------------------------------------------------- Fly back to the Labyrinth of Ice Walls. Land, go left. Buy stuff from the two cats and go in long, hard, level-building-opportunity corridoor. Go north, south, northwest, north west, northeast, north, north, east, south, and northeast. Save and level up until 32+. From the save, go south, southeast, and north. Now fight Fiegmund. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Fiegmund --------------------------------------------------------------------- He will keep jumping to the ledge below and back up top. Use Fire Saber, and fire spells. He will use magic, so heal constantly. Once he is at the bottom, use all your fire spells and some items may work too. He will be dead quite soon..... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Moon Mana Beast --------------------------------------------------------------------- Fly to Moonlight City Mintos and head to the Moonlight Tower. It is a maze inside there, with plenty of enemies. From inside, go northwest, up the stairs, south, northeast, up the stairs, south, southwest, up the stairs, south, and northeast. A Goddess! Build up to 34+, and from the save, go south, northwest, up, south, northeast, up, south, northwest, up, south, northeast, up, south, northwest, up, south, northeast, up, south, northwest, up, south, and northeast (lower plattform). Another Goddess.. Go south, and north through the central passage. Time to fight Dolan. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dolan --------------------------------------------------------------------- This is HARD. Very HARD. It took me ages to beat it, using a combination of spells (anything works), healing and hiding in the corner :-0 Anyway, if you have dryad magic, use it (Leaf Saber), as it works extremely well. If not, use jinn's powers as they are quite effective. Hang in there, be patient and don't get scared. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Earth Mana Beast --------------------------------------------------------------------- Fly to the Molebear Highlands. You should land in a part where there is only a path to the left. Follow it to the north, north again, east, northwest, into the hole and west twice. Those two cats are selling stuff again, and you'll probably need it as you head to the Valley of Gemstone. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Valley of Gemstone --------------------------------------------------------------------- As usual, a brilliant place to build up levels. 35+ is great (36 for me), and Jinn's magic will do quite well. Go south twice, east thrice, southwest, west twice, southeast, east, south, and west. Now use the Goddess as a good healer to gain levels. Go east, east, south, west twice, and south. Go west to fight Land Umber. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Land Umber --------------------------------------------------------------------- Jinn's attacks (Thunder Saber, Wind Blast) work quite well here, and you should concentrate on using them. If not, just pump him with your most powerful spells, keep healing and he should be dead easy. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Light Mana Beast --------------------------------------------------------------------- Head to the dot west of Rolante. Land, go east, northwest, west, northeast, north twice, southeast, east, south, east, and north. After killing the monsters, read the note. Now go back down. Talk to the left tablet, and use Wisp. Talk to the right, and use Shade. Now go south through the passage. Go west, north, east, north, and northwest. Save, and go north to face Lightgazer. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Lightgazer --------------------------------------------------------------------- This is hard. Have Tinkle Rain or Stardust Herbs on hand, as he turns you into moogles. Have a saber apart from Saint with you as well, as he will cast it on you to try and gain life. Use dark spells, Dark Saber if possible, and remember to heal often. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dryad Mana Beast --------------------------------------------------------------------- Sorry, in the earlier revisions I left this out! Go to the ice continent, and fly east of that. Find a small patch to land in, named the Forest of Wonder. Land. The enemies here are nice and easy, and you still should be able to gain some good levels You should be level 35+. Go west, northeast, north, east, northeast, west, west, west and use the goddess, northeast, east, east and east. You are now at Mispolm, the Dryad Mana Beast. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mispolm --------------------------------------------------------------------- This is quite hard. Level 36+ is recommended. Use Jinn's spells (Thunder Saber, Air Blast, Thunder Jutsu, etc.) for an easier way to win. The stupid plants at the side may do HEAPS of damage every now and then, so keep healed. Pound him with those spells and attacks, and he should be gone. Soon. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Darkness Stone --------------------------------------------------------------------- Head to Pedan, the remaining dot on the map, and land in the clearing nearby. Inside, from the clearing where you land, go south, north, and north into the solitary building. Read the note on the wall, and go to sleep. Wake up, and exit the building. You are now in Pedan. Go to the armor store for armor. Then go into a central building. The man will read a tablet telling you of the Masked Mage (Deathjester's master). Also, speak to the Mana Stone Guru, in the western part of town. He says that the Dark Mana Stone should be somewhere nearby. Other people speak of a Dragon's Hall in the Glass Desert(for Duran/Angela), a Mirage Palace in the Jungle of Illusion (Kevin/Carlie), and a Palace of Darkness in the Cave of Darkness (Hawkeye/Riesz). Fly to the remaining dot on the map, and level up to 38. Then wait until night, and fight the Boulder enemies (purple balls with one eye). You will recieve a treasure chest after that, most likely containing a ??? seed. Get 6-10, and head to an Inn nearby. Plant them in the chest inside the Inn, and you will recieve a class change item. These are the items and respective classes: Angela Grand Deviner Book-Light Light Magus Book-Dark Dark Arch Mage Book-Light Dark Rune Master Book-Dark Light Charlotte Bishop Jar-Light Light Evil Shaman Jar-Dark Dark Sage Jar-Light Dark Necromancer Jar-Dark Light Riesz Vanadies Necklace-Light Light Fenrir Knight Necklace-Dark Dark Star Lancer Necklace-Light Dark Dragon Master Necklace-Dark Light Duran Paladin Medalion-Light Light Duelist Medalion-Dark Dark Lord Medalion-Light Dark Sword Master Medalion-Dark Light Hawkeye Wanderer Dice-Light Light Night Blade Dice-Dark Dark Rogue Dice-Light Dark Ninja Master Dice-Dark Light Kevin God Hand Heart-Light Light Death Hand Heart-Dark Dark Warrior Monk Heart-Light Dark Dervish Heart-Dark Light Read the class change guide above to check out the classes. Now that you have got the items, head to the Holyland, and back to where the two Goddesses are. Head up to the white goddess, talk to it and use your item. Ta-da! Your final class change. Now head to your final area. --------------------------------------------------------------------- FINAL AREAS --------------------------------------------------------------------- DURAN/ANGELA --------------------------------------------------------------------- Glass Desert --------------------------------------------------------------------- Go north, north, north, north, north, west, south, west, west, north,east, north, west, north, north and enter the cave. You are now at the Darkness Mana stone. Stock up holy items, healing items, and so forth, as the battle is a long one........ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Zable-Fahr --------------------------------------------------------------------- A very tough boss. Use Saint Saber straight away if you have it, if not, Moon or Leaf, if not, anything but Dark. Now concentrate on one head, and when it is dead, start on the other. Heal whenever you get lower than 300. Once you think the second one is about dead, heal up to full as another head will come out and regenerate them. Now just unload all attacks on the new head while healing, and using holy magic spells. Once it casts Hell Cross again, you're close to beating it. Once it dies, the others go too. After some interesting storyline, you will go out and into the next part of the Desert. Go East. Use the Goddess, and go north, and then east. You will now enter the Dragon's Hall. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dragon's Hall --------------------------------------------------------------------- Wow! Another boss straight up, the Darkshine Knight, who is Duran's father in spirit. (I just have to say that this game has one of the best storylines of any RPG ever!). Bla bla, join the dark side Luke...I mean Duran! Now you will have to fight him with somber music in the background. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Darkshine Knight --------------------------------------------------------------------- Hard. Has all the techs of Duran's Dark classes. Holy Ball is a great help here, along with Saint Saber. Always keep healed as he uses techs one after one after one after one..... he could kill you in one shot. If you have Riesz, either up your stats or lower his stats. A tough boss, but you will get him in the end. Sniff sniff, thank you for releasing me Duran, bla bla (storyline is a little like Star Wars. Luke, good, Luke's Father, evil, maybe they'll make a Seiken Densetsu:The Mana Menace. May the force be with you......). Go north, west, north, and east. You are in a room with a gray headless goddess, who will save for you. Go east, east and go north. Go west, and you will fight Tzenker again. Go back in the walkthrough on instructions to beat it. Go back east, and south. Walk south and go west. Go south, east, east, south, south, and east. Save at the goddess.. Go back west, south, west, and west. Here you will fight Jewel Eater again. Go back south. Go east, north, east, and save at the goddess. Go east, south, west and go north. Here you will fight Full Metal Hagger. After you kill him go back south. Go up the stairs in the south-east corner of this area. Go west, and save. Go west, north, west, west, south, south, south, east, north, and north. Koren, the Red Wizard will be here. Now he will blabber on, say some stuff, and you will have to fight some dragons. Go back south to a whole different area. Go south, and save. Go west, west, north and go east. Go east, north and you will be inside a castle. Go north, and kill all the enemies in this room. There are plenty, so keep healed. After you kill them all go north. The Red Magician, Koren, is here. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Koren --------------------------------------------------------------------- Uses extremely powerful elemental spells on all of your party, which can deal heaps of damage if he casts three in a row. Keep healed, and don't use magic. Whack him physically. It will be a long battle, but you will win. You must go to the Holyland, to prevent the Dragon Emperor from cutting down the Mana tree. Go down and save your game. Call Flammie and go to the dot near the center of the map to go up to the Holyland. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mana Holyland --------------------------------------------------------------------- Almost there....Go north, west, north, east, east, north, west, north, west, and north. Use the Goddess. Go east, north, and west. Kill all the enemies in this area, so that you can go on. Go west, north and go west. Go north, east, and east. Walk across the logs to get to the Mana Tree. Now is the time for the final showdown.....with the DRAGON EMPEROR. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dragon Emperor --------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh my....what a boss. But he's still quite easy. As usual, keep healed. He will change colors throughout the battle, signiying a new weakness to a elemental. If he starts using and elemental spell, use one of the opposite (Holy-Dark, Earth-Wind, Fire-Ice, Moon-Tree). Deathspell deals a nice amount of damage too (999, yeah!). When the music changes, that's the halfway mark, and soon you will have finished the game! --------------------------------------------------------------------- HAWKEYE/RIESZ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Cave of Darkness Gee, too bad for you as you have just picked the toughest bosses. Anyway, should have told you at the start. But, you have the most interesting final area. Moving right along, fly to the Darkness Cave, the big northeast island. It should have flashing dots. Moving along now....Once you enter the cave, it will be bright and turn PITCH dark. So pause, and turn your TV/monitor's brightness right up, as it will be easier. That's what I did. Ok, level up a little, 39 or 40 is good. Now, go west, north, north, east, and north. Now head northwest, and before entering keep everyone healed...'cause the Darkness Beast is comin.... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Zable-Fahr --------------------------------------------------------------------- Hmmm... very tough. Cast Saint Saber if you can and let Hawk do all the attacking. By the way, unless you are Nightblade, it would be better just to use your tech attack when the bar is green as he hits twice for more damage. Nightblade is an exception, his Split-Image Slice is really the best tech ever (my opinion). Otherwise, Deathspell works nice and be ready to heal. Once you kill both heads, one in the middle will appear. Stop everything, and get ready to heal as all the other heads regenerate and the middle one casts Hell Cross. Ouch. Heal and now focus all of your attacks on the middle head. pound it and get ready for one more Hell Cross before it dies. No go west, south, south, up the stairs, and north. Enter the door and save. Go east about three screens and touch the statue to turn on the lights. YEAH! Now go back one screen, go south down the stairs, and into the west door. No go south, fall down a hole and fight Jagan. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Jagan --------------------------------------------------------------------- Level 41+ is recommended. Brings along a Bloody Wolf and Carmilla Queen. Damn. You have to kill them as well. Damn. Jagan will cast Deathspell often so look out. Use it on him and his sidekicks. Kill the sidekicks first, and then take Jagan out with fire attacks, flame saber, Hawk's attacks, Lise's stat changers, just everything on Jagan. This is hard, and you should win if you don't run out of Honey Jars, Cups of Wishes or Magic Walnuts. Good luck. After that you will end up back in the first part of the cave. Go north, northwest, west through the Darkness Stone place, south, south, up the stairs and north. Save, go east and go up the ice trail in the middle. Defeat the enemies, and go northeast. Go north, north and save. Go east, east and north. Enter the Darkness Castle. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Darkness Castle --------------------------------------------------------------------- This place look extremely cool, as someone's been polishing the floors :-) Go either left or right. You MUST defeat all the enemies to lower the fire barriers (on one side only). That includes the enemy in the room two screens from the start. Now, head up the stairs, and press the skull to open the door below. Head back to the lower floor and enter that door. Go north, east, east, south, save, up the stairs, left, left, in the middle door, and up to the throne. Fall, and you will face Full Metal Hugger. Refer to the earlier parts on tips to defeat it. Now go south, east (near where the light is shining), south, southeast, and defeat all the enemies. Now go to the left of the caged door and press A. The door will open. Many rooms are like this so watch out. Go in the door, west, south, west, south, south, south, open the door as noted above, and fight Genova. Tips are once again are in the earlier parts. Now go north three times, east, up the stairs, west, south to save, if not, up the stairs, south, and fight Tzenker. Another boss you have fought before. Now go west, past the blocked-off staircase, until you reach a door, go north, down stairs, south, save and go east. Go east, north and meet Bigieu...a battle you have waited for..... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Bigieu --------------------------------------------------------------------- EXTREMELY HARD. In fact, Hawkeye/Riesz have the hardest bosses. You should be higher than Lv. 45, 50+ is very good. Bigieu turns into a cat of some sort, and goes psycho. Be careful as when she casts Moon Saber, she will do some combo which hits for a lot and makes her gain life too. Earth works well here, and if you have Anti-magic, use right after she casts Moon Saber. Watch out for her summon, Lamia Naga, it takes the piss out of you, so prepare to heal. Don't use Sabers, lower her stats, up your stats, and use earth magic on here. It should be done without anyone dying...I hope. One more to go....head all the way back, to the blocked-off staircase. Now it is open, so go up on it, to meet the Dark Prince! Conversation happens, and now you have to head to the Holyland for the final confrontation. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mana Holyland --------------------------------------------------------------------- It's a maze here, level up as high as you can. I'd say 80+ is VERY GOOD, but not neccessary. Don't go to extremes (99) as it is a waste of your time. Go north, west, north, east, east, north, north, west, north, north, west, north and save. Good place to level here....Go east, north, and west. Kill all the enemies in this area, so that you can go on. Go west, north and go west. Go north, east, and east. Walk across the logs to get to the Mana Tree. Now you shall face your final foe, the Arch-Demon..... --------------------------------------------------------------------- ArchDemon --------------------------------------------------------------------- You thought all the bosses before were hard? THINK AGAIN. This boss will have two forms, the first is a pain. It will keep changing it's elemental powers (fire, dark, earth) and before he changes again will launch a super attack on you. Heal often, cast Deathspell if possible (999 damage, oh yeah),and use your most powerful spells, remembering to conserve some MP. If you run out, just let that character die and when you revive him/her they will get full MP:-0 Dark, Moon and Earth are his most nastiest elementals, and you will be glad when he changes in the middle of the battle. This is hard. Now pound him as hard as you can, using Tree and Moon saber if possible. Use all your MP, techs, and heal as his super attack is quite a super attack (HEAPS OF DAMAGE, 500 or more). Even though it may take you two hours or so, it's worth it..... --------------------------------------------------------------------- KEVIN/CARLIE You have the easiest task of getting to your final area, it's right next to Pedan! See the entrance to the Jungle of Illusion? Go west, follow the river north, northwest after that, and speak to the headless statue. Use Dryad, and a path to your south will appear. Save and restore at the statue, then go south. Go east, and you'll probably hear a click. That just means you are going the right way.. Go north, west, south, west, west, north, and restore at the statue. Stock your items, as you'll be facing the Darkness Mana Beast when you head north. If you have Kevin, I suggest you wait until it's night (or use a Dreamsee Herb) as his attacks are much more powerful at night. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Zable-Fahr --------------------------------------------------------------------- A very tough boss. Use Saint Saber straight away if you have it, if not, Moon or Leaf, if not, anything but Dark. Now concentrate on one head, and when it is dead, start on the other. Heal whenever you get lower than 300. Once you think the second one is about dead, heal up to full as another head will come out and regenerate them. Now just unload all attacks on the new head while healing, and using holy magic spells. Once it casts Hell Cross again, you're close to beating it. Once it dies, the others go too. After, a treasure chest will appear. Open it and get the Illusion Mirror. If you are desperate, head back to Pedan for an item re-stock. Only if you really need them. Head back to Zable-Fahr's lair, and go south, south, west, north, north and save at the statue. Build up to about 40-41+. Now, from the statue, go south, west, north, and north. You'll be asked something, use the Illusion Mirror. And then Deathjester will appear! Whoop his ass! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Deathjester --------------------------------------------------------------------- He is extremely annoying. He'll divide into three, and it's up to you to guess the right one....sigh =( What I did was cast Leaf and Moon Sabers on my party, even though I don't think they helped much, so try it. You've gotta hit the right one, and I suggest using just weapons for this battle. Only the real Deathjester will take some damage, and after a while, he'll change his position again. Annoying, but you'll get through. After you beat him, a path will appear to the north. Now, I suggest going back to stock up on healing items, especially Cups of Wishes, and once you have, come back, and enter the path to the Mirage Palace. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mirage Palace --------------------------------------------------------------------- Go north, speak to the priest dude, then head northwest and north. Speak to the skeleton to save. Huh. Ok, when I was here, I needed help, so I will be taking the same directions as Amar did. There'll be six paths. And six orbs. Once you do a certain thing on each path, the orb will light up, and when all of them are lit, you can head to the north path. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 6) FAQ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Send all questions to shinra9@yahoo.com, or my ICQ#34601221. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. How do you cast spells? A. Bring up the item screen (usually X), and press down to bring up your magic list. Select a spell and a target, and press A to cast it. To change to a different character's spell ring, press L or R. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. How do I change classes? And can I change after Level 38? A. First you need to have your characters on level 18+ for the first change, and level 38+ for the second. Then you need to find a mana stone, talk to it and you will change. For your second change, you need to fight enemies for a ???? seed, plant it, go to the Holyland and class change using the Goddess statue there. Yes, you can change at any level past Level 38, so don't worry. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. With the ???? seeds, when I plant them, I keep getting the same item! I keep going back to get more and more, and the same thing. Could you tell me what is wrong? A. Ok, this one's a toughie. If your'e using an emulator, it's easier. Grab your seeds, and save before planting them. Plant one, and then if you like it, save. If you don't, load and try it again. Also switch your lead character, it helps. Otherwise, you'll have to resort to hacking. There is a hacking guide out there somewhere, I'll try and grab a link for it, and it will teach you how to get the items you want. And by loading and saving, I mean at save points, not states (sorry for any confusion, especially you Mike). And from Howard Shen: For the ???? seeds, sometimes no matter how many times you reset it, it will always give you the same thing. The key is to get a bunch of seeds, 5 is a good number. Just take the first item, and sometimes the second item is something you might want. The more seeds you have, the more you can plant at once. They'll usually go through a cycle. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. Where's Judd/Jad? A. They are both the same. Different patches have different translations. Same with a couple of other cities, if they look the same, then they probably are the same (Cerbokkle-Corobokkle, Byzel-Bayzel, etc.) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. How do I use techs? A. Whenever you are in battle, take a look at the flashing meter underneath your HP. If you hit the enemy enough, it will go to green, and then press B for a Level 1 tech. When it reaches yellow, press B for a Level 2 attack, and red for a Level 3 attack. After you use the tech, the bar resets. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. For Kevin, it says that I've got two techs, e.g Whirlwind Kick and Tornado Throw. I can use the first one but not the second, how do I use the second one? When he's computer controlled he pulls it off. A.Ok, thanks to Amar (again), he said that it's just a second tech which he pulls off randomly. How random, he does not know. And this from Pokem10065: I personally think it is only random since when it became a wolf it did a throw and when he reverted during the day he also did a throw. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q.I'm in the Glass Desert, followed all your directions, and I end up going around in circles! Help please.... A.Okay, once you get to the part where you go UNDER the bridge, head up. You should be in a screen where you passed before, the one after you crossed the bridge. It has a sand waterfall thingy right below you... just go up and around the rock there. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q.I'm trying to equip another character with weapons, but I can't do it! A.Go into the menu screen (X), and go to the weapon screen (top right). Press SELECT to change the character. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q.I've got *this person* at *this level* and I haven't learnt any magic yet? Why? A.It basically depends on what level your intelligence, vitality, etc. is. Soon I'll create a chart telling you what level these have to be for you to learn a spell. If I can. From Pokem10065: If your levels are too high, before you fight the certain spirit, you won't have those spells. Like me at level 53 before Salamando. (Note from Magus: 53? Whoa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q.I just changed all my guys into their 3rd classes and while I was finding the seeds I got some weapon/armor seeds I planted them as a nightblade and got 2 things for Hawk 1. A raganrok weapon 2. A master's armor They are both for hawk but if i try to equip them it just doesnt let me.. So I figured I'd sell them but when I selected them to sell they started glowing so I hesitated. What do I do? How to equip? A. What you need to do is to first, save, and then plant the seeds. Find out what they give, and then work out who they belong to (if it's not in another FAQ, I'll put it up here soon). Then reset, remember the order of the seeds, and put the person who the thing belongs to in front, so they can plant it. This from David: You *can* exchange armor, weapons, etc. between characters in the game, hit menu, and trade weapons in the top-center menu screen. And from Howard Shen: When planting weapon/armor seeds, there's no reason to change front characters. To exchange equipment, just go to the menu by pressing Y, press up to go to the INV option and hit A. You can now move weapons, armor,helmets, rings, and shields between characters. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. Help, I'm in Pedan and I've talked to everyone (I think). I'm heading off to my final destination but the path is blockd! Help! A. Okay, there should be someone in the town who speaks of a Dark Monster at whatever place. After that you should be fine. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. I'm at the Volcanic Island. I've gotten up to the part where you have to talk to the rock and use Gnome...but a question mark just comes up! Help please! A. Um, first of all you need the Gnome spirit. But you've got that, if you've been reading this whole walkthrough. Second, you've gotta talk to all of the Dark Priests. Ok? Thanks partially to Casey the "ah Hawk....Come on...Angela is WAY hotter than Jessica!!!!". Uh.... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. I was just wondering if there was something wrong with my ROM because everytime I'm in the moonlight forest its pitch black with blue clouds and it's hard to find my way around. A. Well, it's your video card I think. If you are using ZSNES, press either 1 to 5 on the keyboard to change the transparencies. Then press 6 to change them back to normal. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q.I just changed classes in SoM2 and tried to cast magic but I couldn't. I did everything that your FAQ said to do but every time I went to the items screen and pushed down but it never went to the magic screen. What should I do? A. Firstly you need to have learnt magic. Only Angela and Carlie/Charlotte have magic before their first class change. Ok? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q.I'm playing with Lise as my main charecter, and Hawk, and Duran as my secondary charecters. I just finished chasing Koren out of Forensa, and listened to the king tell me to get the wind thingy. The problem is that whenever I go to talk to Bon Jour he says that his cannon isn't finished yet. I've tried talking to everyone everywhere I can get to. I tried going back to the Cleft of The Earth, which amounts to nothing. I've tried going all the way back to the left through the Molebear Highland and trying to see if there was something I could do there. Then I go back to the castle and Bon Jour still says that his cannon isn't set up yet. A. There will be a woman in the town of Forsena, who will tell you that the cannon is ready. She's in a house, I think. Just talk to everyone until you find her. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. If Duran becomes a Swordmaster, can he still carry a shield? A. No. Only Light Classes can carry shields, but the Swordmaster is probably his best class. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 7)Junk --------------------------------------------------------------------- Acknowledgements: Pokem10065-For giving lots of helpful advice.
