Cast of Characters - IGNguidesmedia.ign.com/guides/12141/LegendofMana.pdfCast of Characters During...

egend of Mana is a game of epic magnitude. It isn't a straightforward RPG like mostothers on the market today. Instead, you pick your own quests, and how to build yourcharacter. You choose how to build the land and who to help over the course of youradventures. You'll meet many memorable characters over your travels, some of which

will join you, while the others will oppose you.The Legend of Mana takes place in the sameworld as the Secret of Mana for the SuperNintendo. But it is many years later and the ManaTree is dying. The world is in ruins and you haveto use the power of your mind to reconstruct itwith the help of powerful artifacts. It is up to you tobring peace back to the land and rebuild it.Foremost, you are to witness what is happening inthe land, as people return to the lives they hadbefore the land was torn apart.This game contains beautifully hand-drawnbackgrounds and characters. The music is greatas well. But what draws me to the game is thelong list of quests that are to be done, as well asthe more than 200 special moves! The extra features available at your Home are also aplus.This is a great game that will have you coming back for more and more!The game can also be played with a second player, but it is not like in the Secret of Mana. It isno longer coop, but more of a follower situation. The second player can take control of an NPC,or can import his own character from another save game to play with, but in either case, theyare unable to be modified (they can gain levels, but can't change their special moves or spells).This makes the game a little boring when a second player is there, but it tends to liven up whenbattle is joined, since the second player has the same importance there as the main one.That's enough rambling for me now. On to the rest of the guide!

Cast of CharactersDuring your travels, you will meet many interesting people. Here I will present a few of themthat you meet in strings of adventures. The rest of them can be researched in theencyclopedias in you library.

Escad and Friends

There are seven quests featuring these four. Have fun with them!

EscadEscad is a jerk. I don't like him at all. He is off to kill Irvine for what the guy did to his friendMatilda. He attacks with a large two-handed sword. He is at odds with Daena, and you will haveto pick between them at several points during your quest.

DaenaDaena is a cat-person - literally! She is a nice companion to have around (much better thanEscad!) and is much nicer to you. You will have to pick between her and Escad during yourquest. She is a true friend of Matilda's and looks to reunite her with Irvine.MatildaThe High Priestess of Gato's Temple of Healing, she is aged beyond her years. Her love anddevotion to Irvine has had an impact on her, yet she refuses to stop loving the guy. Daenalooks to help her with her love, while Escad continuously tries to break it up.

IrvineThe last of the quartet, Irvine is a demon that has taken leadership of the faeries. He is a strongman that drained Matilda of her youth to gain more power for himself. He cares nothing for her.He dies at your hand at the end of Heaven's Gate.

The Jumi

The Jumi are people who have gemstones as cores instead of hearts. Their civilization came toan end and very few are alive. Their leader has been kidnapped. Needless to say, you will meetup with these people alot in your travels. There are more Jumi than I have listed.

ElazulThe Jumi of lapis lazuli, he is Pearl's knight. He is a strong fighter that constantly loses hisguardian. You will meet up with him a lot.

Pearl / Lady BlackpearlPearl is Elazul's guardian, or healer. She is in fact Lady Blackpearl, Florina's old knight. She isa powerful ally in either form, as she is a mage/fighter depending on who she is at the time.More on her can be found on the various quests.

file:///C|/WINDOWS/Profiles/LordHaart/My Documents/FAQs/Legend of Mana/pdf/pdfheroes.html (1 of 2) [9/14/2000 9:41:58 PM]

Sandra / Alex / AlexandraSandra is a jewel thief that steals Jumi's cores for her master. In fact, she is Jumi herself,Alexandra. She is Florina's current knight. Her motives are her own and she reveals them overthe course of the game. Sometimes she masquerades as Alex, the owner of a Jewelry Shop.

FlorinaThe leader of the Jumi people. She is the only one who can shed the healing tears needed forher race. She is an important element in the Jumi quests, but I'll leave it at that.

Dragoons

There are only two dragoons in the game, Larc and Sierra.

LarcHe is Drakonis' dragoon. He is tied with him and seeks to unravel that tie so he can be with hissister, Sierra. The problem is that he is too tightly woven into his master's plans and has nochance to escape from his servitude, save through death. His life is a tragic one.

SierraShe is Larc's loving sister. She seeks to stop him from going through with his plans, since shehas no clue why he is doing them. She comes at odds with you at several points during yourquest, but later joins you so she can kill her brother's slayer. She is powerful in combat andtends to kill enemies before you even get a chance too.

Others

Here are a few more of the NPCs you will meet.

NiccoloA rabbit that looks to earn a fortune on weird get-rich quick schemes. He needs your help atotal of five times.Bud and LisaA pair of orphans that you take under your wing early in the game. They are passable magesthat offer to join your party whenever you ask. They live at your Home.ElleA beautiful siren that lives in the lighthouse on Madora Beach. She will join you if you ask herto. She is someone you can depend on in combat.

Player TwoBy going to the house in the top left corner of the center of Domina, you can invite a secondplayer to join your quest. This is the main character belonging to someone else. He/she has thesame stats, weapons and skills as they had in their game. It must come from a memory cardand must come from a different string of adventures, not a copy of the main character currentlyin use. You can switch the two-player control on anywhere where you can save the game.

Combat and MagicCombat works a bit differently than in Secret of Mana. You no longer have to level up or powerup your weapons. Instead, you learn weapon skills as the game progresses. These you canuse when your skill meter fills to the top. You fill your meter by attacking an opponent with quickattacks or plunge attacks. Quick attacks are strung together to make combos. They are doneusing the X button. Plunge attacks are done with the Square button. Plunge attacks are morepowerful and can be done in different ways. For example, pressing down and square will shootan arrow down, while the same with a sword will make an upward sweep. Experimentation iskey.

Battle overall is different in this game. Enemies will attack you and draw you into battles like inChrono Trigger. From there it is all in real-time.

From your status window you can equip special moves, spells and abilities. You start with eightspecial moves. You learn more by using them in battle and using them in combination witheach other. You can equip two of these at a time and can use them whenever you want them.A list of the 26 abilities can be found at the end of this section.

Special moves are learnt by either using a weapon a lot, or by equipping the weapon and acertain combination of abilities. Some techniques require you to have more than two abilitiesequipped. To get these, just make sure you have all the others and fight with the weapon a lotto get them. Most techniques are reserved for a single weapon, but some can be used for twoor three weapons. For best results, equip a lot of weapons and learn as many skills as possible.Sometimes learning some Flail skills will let you get some new Bow skills. Needless to say, youare best off training with all your weapons. Special skills can be equipped to the R and Lbuttons. A complete list of skills can be found at the end of this section.

Spells are used in the same way as special techniques. They must be equipped to the L or Rbuttons to be used. An instrument is needed to have access to spells. These can be bought intowns or built in your Workshops. To use magic in battle, simply hold the assigned battle andwait for the effect outline to appear. Simply let go of the button when you want to cast the spell.Hints for creating instruments is available in the features section.

QuestsLegend of Mana is a game of grand adventures. You pick the quests you go on and whatweapons to master. You can pick how to play the game and in what order. You can also pickthe gender of your main hero! For the sake of this guide, I chose to use the female characterand named her Rane. In the game itself the default name is "You". You can also pick yourstarting weapon. Choose anyone of them - I took the Bow since it is a good weapon that keepsyou out of harm's way. Make your choices and start the game!

Over the course of the game you'll receive various artifacts that allow you to build new areas foryou to explore. You'll receive your first one, the Mailbox, right away. Place it anywhere on themap (do this with all the artifacts), but I suggest starting in the lower right corner of the map(nestled in the mountains). Plant the Mailbox, and head into your house. Some quests can onlybe activated if the lands are in the right places. You will want to keep an empty space next toDomina until the end of the game. If you don't, you stand to lose three of the game's quests.

Leires Tower Fieg Snowfield Geo Bejeweled City

Polpota Harbour SS Buccaneer Lumina Norn Peaks Bone Fortress Junkyard

White Forest Madora Beach Lake Kilma Jungle Mindas Ruins Ulkan Mines

Lucemia Gato Grottoes Luon Highway Mekiv Caverns

Underworld Duma Desert Mana Sanctuary Domina Home

Here is a placement chart for the lands. The Home is in the bottom-right most corner of the map. Sorrythat it can't be a screenshot!

You will most likely find the artifacts in a specific order than I did. The artifacts that you get atthe end of a quest are based on the lands that you have already visited, and the artifacts inyour possession.To maximize your quest potential, try to use the artifacts only when necessary. On a moreimportant note, it is important to say that the four main towns should be placed in a specificorder. You should do as many quests with the lands already in your possession as possiblebefore placing a new town on the map. Not doing this may result in some quests failing or notappearing at all. If you don't get them in the same order, try shuffling them around, but try tokeep them within the boundaries created by the towns. The problem that I had was the lack ofgoing to Polpota Harbor until quite late in the game. Quests 34-36 could be played wheneveryou want after Lumina, they are quite flexible. The four towns that form the boundaries areDomina, Gato, Lumina and Geo and should be placed in that order. Notice that Geo and theMana Sanctuary have 17 quests associated with them. In short, by following the order of thequests that I put here, you will have the least chance of failing at one or missing one.One other thing to note about the quests. Each quest may require you to have already finisheda previous quest to be able to trigger it. There are other possible requirements. You also don'tneed to have finished all the quests to finish the game.

Take her up on the offer and you'll cornerthe kidnapper. You recover Matilda, but have tobattle Spriggan first.

Spriggan is a weird-looking... something. When he flashes get as far away as you can fromhim. He either makes ceiling tiles fall on you, or he extends his tongue and drains your hitpoints. Towards the end of the fight he'll use the Evade ability alot - making it much harder foryou to hit him! Perseverance is your best friend here - just try and hit him with underhandswings with a sword to take him out quickly. One other thing to watch put for is his carpetattack. He makes waves with it and puts your party to sleep. It is very annoying and may justcause your death! Area attack special moves are extremely useful here.

The Boreal Hound is a rather tough boss. Whenhe flashes run away - he jumps into the air andminor explosions are set off on the ground. Whenelectricity starts to cover him, run behind him, if atall possible. Otherwise, run to the other end of thescreen and on the same level as he is. It doesn'twork all the time, but he should miss you a fewtimes. Use magic and special moves to kill him,but watch out - he dodges them sometimes!

Head three screens to the left to find Teapo andCount Dovula.

Count Dovula is annoyingly simple to defeat. Just pound on him with magic and special movesuntil he dies. He likes to punch you, but won't do too much damage.

When on the ground, theywill flash and use magic on the area around them.When they do this, run for all you are worth. Theyuse much stronger magic when in the air though,so use the same strategy to avoid it. As for killingLabanne, there is only a single way to do it - youhave to kill the hands when they are on theground! Every one of them that you kill damagesthe boss. It doesn't take much to kill the guyeither. Just use magic and special moves todestroy the hands.

Daena fights much like Escad, but she charges at you when she flashes, whereas he used anarea attack. This attack is extremely fast, so watch out for it! She runs out one side and throughto the other. In many ways, the two are pretty equal in combat.

I chose Daena's side (Escad is a retard and I hate him!). After the battle you will hear of Irwin'splans. Return Home and save you game.

Gilbert willenter and promise to help her sell six lamps. Exit and talk to him. He buys three of the lampsand asks you to deal with the other three. Nice guy.

Go to the tavern on the west side of town and talkto the barkeep to learn the language of theDudbears. Right it all down, or just answer theway I tell you to, it doesn't matter to me.

Return Home and save yourgame.


Quest 26: Heaven's Gate

Requirements: Must be done after Star-Crossed Lovers.Required Places: Gato, Lucemia (placed here)Failure: Can't fail.

Note: This is the final quest featuring Escad,Daena, Matilda and Irwin. Do not do thisadventure before finishing Daddy's Broom.

Return to the Dreamweaving Room in Gato'sTemple of Healing to witness a conversationbetween Matilda and your ally from Star-CrossedLovers.

Lucemia is the 'corpse' of a giant snake. You haveto travel along its back and inside of it to get to thehead, where Irwin awaits you.

He has strong physicalattacks, and even more powerful special attacks.The ones to look out for are his fireball andlightning attacks. When he jumps into the air after flashing, he is ready to do his fireball attack.

file:///C|/WINDOWS/Profiles/LordHaart/My Documents/FAQs/Legend of Mana/pdf/21.html (1 of 2) [9/14/2000 9:44:01 PM]

He flies into the distance and fires several fireballsat you. Try to dodge them by running to theopposite end of the screen from where the firstone hits. If he flashes and starts gatheringelectricity, get ready to hide at the opposite end ofthe screen, for he is summoning lightning from thesky to strike everything around him. It does a lotof damage, so watch out! Use the Counterstrikeability on him and special moves to take him outthe easiest. Magic works, but isn't that useful inthis battle. With enough caution you should beable to get through this battle without too muchdifficulty.

Quest 28: The Fallen Emperor

Requirements: No requirements.Required Places: Underworld (placed here)Failure: Can't fail.

Place the Trembling Spoon on the space to the left of Gato to create the Underworld. Enter itand search the tombstone to get teleported to the inner fortress. Larc, a dragoon, will offer tojoin your group at this point. Take him with you.

Go to the left, upper right, right, up, up, upper right, lower left and to the far right. Go throughthe door here to get to Olbohn's study. Larc asks him for a favor. Talk to the Shadole and go tothe Baptismal Chamber. Talk to the Shadole in the upper left corner and have it do the Baptismof Fire. Go to the lower left twice, and to the right and through the second door. Take threeupper rights to get to the boss' chamber.

Hitodama, the flame, is only vulnerable when onthe ground. Use water magic or special moves tokill it. To attack, Hitodama rises into the air andpossesses one or more of the statues. If itpossesses one of the upper statues, a beam willlance out from the sky to attack a single characteron the ground. If the eyes light up on the lowerstatues, a small area attack is made. Allcharacters caught in its area of effect have theirspecial move gauges brought to zero.Furthermore, when all four are possessed atonce, a giant trident falls from the ceiling and hitsthe center of the battlefield.

Quest 29: The Guardian of Winds

Requirements: Must have finished The Fallen Emperor.Required Places: Underworld, Norn Peaks (placed here)Failure: Can't fail.

Place the Skull Lantern on top of the Jungle. Go back to the Underworld and talk to Larc in theentrance. Take him with you. Go to the Norn Peaks.

Right at the start you will be ambushed by Sierra,a good dragoon (I have a feeling that Larc isbeing controlled by the Fallen Emperor). Go rightthree times and into town. Watch the scene withthe Windcallers, then go to the upper right to startyour trek up the mountain. You have to fight thethree Windcallers to get to the dragon at thesummit. Go to the upper right twice to find the firstWindcaller.

The Windcallers use a lot of air magic. They canuse it in a line attack, cone attack, or area attack.Watch out for the displayed region and stay awayfrom it! If you get caught in the cyclone (areaversion) you'll be paralyzed! When not using magic, it attacks with its feathers; in a straight lineor in a circle around them. Use your special moves to take them out, and try to interrupt theirspellcasting as much as possible. The first one is not too difficult, and the other two are just aspowerful.

Head to the upper left and take three lefts to findthe second Windcaller. It is a copy of the last one.Go to the right, lower right, right, upper right, right,lower right and upper right to get to the lastWindcaller. Kill it and go to the lower left, left andupper right through the statue. If you have killedthe three Windcallers, it'll disintegrate with yourtouch. Walk the new path. Go to the right andthen upper right to come across some ofAkravator's servants. Then take two upper lefts toget to Akravator himself.

Akravator is a very tough boss. When you get intoo close, he'll flash and use his wing buffet toblow you back. He is invincible when he flaps his wings, so stay away from him when he doesthis. Also, be on the lookout for the magical symbols when he is flashing - it means that he isgetting ready to use his dark area magic! This attack is devastating, so make sure you are gonefrom its radius! Akravator also breaths fire. He does this in two ways. When he moves whileflashing he will breath fire in a wave before him. Just keep back. He also jumps into the air and


flies above the battlefield, carpeting the area in fire. Your best bet here is to stay in one of thecorners of the screen. To top it off, he also attacks with his jaws, claws and tail. To beat him,keep your distance when he uses his special moves, and rush him when he isn't. You'll haveyour best chance of winning when being cautious. Special moves with long ranges are the bestfor this fight, especially the Bow moves.

You will get the Dragonbone for your troubles. Return Home and save your game.


Requirements: Done with The Little Sorcerers.Required Places: Underworld, GatoFailure: You fail to find Pokiehl with Bud in your party.

Make sure that you have a pet with you and goand pick up Larc at the Underworld entrance. Goto the Bone Fortress. Go to the right and do battle with the Skeletal Soldier. Just hammer himwith plain attacks to kill him. Just watch out for hisrocket punch attack. Search the skull and enter it.

Search one of the stools in the entrance to triggera trap. Your entire group will be separated. Fromwhere you start, take two upper lefts and talk tothe skull. Go to the left and search the armor. Gointo the new door on your right to find your pet.Go to the bottom left, bottom right, lower right anddown to get back into your original cell. Hit the leftswitch and go up into the elevator. Go to the thirdfloor and battle Sierra.

You can only damage her after hitting her with aspecial move. Afterwards you can beat her up.She doesn't do anything special. Pick up the keythat she drops and go to the second floor. Go tothe left and talk to the armor. Go through the newdoor on the left and talk to Larc within to get himback into the group. Return to the elevator and goto the first floor. Search the bottom left chair. Afterthe little scene go back to the third floor. Go leftand then up to get to Deathbringer.

Deathbringer is an easy boss. When he flasheshe does one of two things. He either sends rings of light at all three of your characters for


minimal damage, or he summons stalagmitesfrom the ground to pierce everything in the nearvicinity of him. Just keep away and pummel himwith heavy special moves to lay him low theeasiest. Head right after the battle to fight Jabara.

Jabara is also not much of a problem. When hestarts to flash, run along side him to avoid hispowerful electricity attack. Otherwise, the onlyother attacks that I saw from him were hisphysical attacks. Heavy weapons like theTwo-Handed Sword are great when used against him. After your victory you have to fight aneven stronger Jabara.

The second Jabara is much more powerful. Whenit flashes, he moves to the center of the screenand the entire chamber starts to shake. Run to thebottom left corner at this point to avoid all theboulders that fall from the sky. He also uses histail to attack. Use the same kind of attacks to killthe second Jabara as you used to kill the first.Your reward is the Green Cane. Return Homeand save your game.

Go to the bottom left twice, down, left,left, bottom left, bottom right and right to get to thedragon. Larc demands to see the Mana Stoneand Vadise lets him. He runs off, leaving you withSierra and Vadise. Agree to stay with them andgo through with their test.

Sierra attacks you in the same manner as the lasttime. Vadise is the main problem here - he has a lethal fire attack that can put you to sleep!Just run from him when he starts to flash. His other attack is an area spell. When symbolsappear around his head, watch out for the outline that appears on the ground! Get away from it,or you risk dying a horrible death! Use the fact that he disappears when hit to your advantage.Give him a nice strike, and when he is gone, go for Sierra. Once she is gone it is an easymatter of taking Vadise out.

Go to the right three times and then to the lower right. Go to the top right twice, top left, left, topleft, right and lower right to get to the boss, the Fullmetal Haggar.

This crab has very few attacks. It uses its pincersa lot, so you'll want to stay away from him. Theone special move that I witnessed was hisshockwave attack. His eyes disappear and hestarts to flash. Then he jumps high into the air andlands in the center of the battlefield. Heaven helpyou if you were under him when he lands! Tomake matters worse, the entire area around himis also hit by a high velocity shockwave! Just hidein a corner when he jumps. Hit him with specialmoves to kill him the quickest.

I'm not sure of my directions, but I know that at least most of them are right. Go tothe upper left, upper right, right, up, up, upper right, lower left and into the second door on theright. Go to the upper right twice, up, and to the upper right twice more to get to the Shrine ofFaces. The Shadoles will teleport you to the deepest level. Go up to battle Larc.

Larc has three special moves. When he simplyflashes, he rears and shoots large shells from hisfore hooves. These hit a mid-sized region in frontof him. Just stay back. When he shakes whileflashing, he does one of two things. Either his fistsdetach and fly around, swatting everything in theirpath, or his whole body comes apart andelectricity surges within, zapping anything closeenough to him. Both can be avoided by running tothe opposite side of the screen from him. Afteryou win, the Flames appears on the map in placeof the Underworld. Talk to Sierra in the entranceto have her join you. When you enter the place,there is no return until you defeat Drakonis. Enterthe castle.

Go right, lower right, up, lower left, down, upper left, left, upper left, upper right, and up twice toget to the boss, Drakonis.


The Crimson Dragon has some awesomephysical attacks, but it strength lies in its breathattacks. When it flashes it is ready to use itsbreath weapons. He uses his fire in two ways,either in a single long breath that gets the wholearea in front of him, or as several short bursts thatcan only hit a single person at a time. When hejumps into the air, be prepared for his stompattack. He creates a large shockwave which isdeadly in its intensity. Stay on the edge of thebattlefield when possible to avoid the brunt of thedamage. Kill it with special moves and magic (allbut Salamander for obvious reasons!). Victorygets you a long cutscene.

When all this hashappened, return to Lumina's bar and talk toCapella. He'll go off after Diddle. Leave the areaand watch as the four Shadoles take Diddlehostage. Go to the Underworld and you'll beteleported to the lowest level.

DON'T TALK TO POKIEHL, IF YOU WANT TO BE ABLE TO FINISH THE QUEST! Asking himto let you leave ends the quest. As you chase after the two friends, you'll have to get throughgroups of Shadoles. Just touching one will have it teleport you back to the first room. It is veryannoying. Go to the left and you'll have to go through two groups of the things. Then there aretwo long rooms with nothing but enemies to kill. The next chamber is filled with Shadoles thatwink out of sight. Just because they are invisible, doesn't mean you can walk over them! Juststay at the bottom and walk around them when they come into view. The next chamber alsoholds Shadoles, but these turn invisible as soon as you enter the place. Not their locations andwalk between them. The next room holds the friends, as well as the Ape Mummy!

Just hack at the thing's torso to kill it. It isn't that hard to kill. It didn't even hit me at all! Do notgo to Domina after this quest! I will tell you when to return! If you do, you'll lose a quest.Instead, return Home and save your game.

Before youknow it, you are fighting the Hegs Ant for them! Once again, the trick to winning is to keep yourdistance when the enemy uses his special attacks. The first one that you are likely to see is hisswarm attack. He jumps into the air and lets loose a swarm of bees that fly at you for about halfthe screen. His second attack is a large lightning ball that he sets before himself. He bothflashes and courses with the energy before he attacks with it, so there is enough warning. Justuse special moves to claim victory. Return Home and save your game.

Go back to Kristie's place and talk to Diana again. Go one floor further down to theUnderground Battle Arena. Fight the Jewel Beast. It attacks the same way as the last one, so don't worryabout it.

Two more upper lefts brings you to the Sandra, LadyBlackpearl and a Jewel Beast. Return Home and save your game.


Quest 64: Teardrop StoneRequirements: Must be finished with the Teardrop Stone quest.Required Places: Domina, Geo, Bejeweled City (placed here)Failure: Can't fail.

Go to the church in Domina and talk to Inspector Boyd. Agree to help him find Elazul and Pearl. He'lltake you to the Jewelry Shop in Geo. Enter it and leave right away. Elazul and Pearl will run into you.Open the treasure chest and you will learn of Pearl and Lady Blackpearl's pasts. Talk to them and takeeither of them with you. I took Pearl. Talk to the other to get a special sword (I haven't tried this withPearl, only with Elazul). Florina gives you the Jumi's Staff. Place it somewhere on the map to create theBejeweled City. Go there.

The Bejeweled City is a tiered city with locked doorsbefore every flight of stairs. There are Jewel Beastsguarding each of these. The doors are opened byplacing the right combination of jewels on thepedestals. I'm not sure if this is random. I'll list the onesthat I needed for each door. If they don't work, you'llhave to experiment with them yourself - after placingthem, go to the door and you'll hear a series of chimes,telling you how many are right.

On the first floor you'll find the Topaz, Ruby, Emeraldand Sapphire. I needed the Ruby and Emerald to openthe door. Open the door and then return to the rooms tocollect all the gems that you used. Go to the secondfloor and collect the Aquamarine and Amethyst. I needed the Topaz, Emerald and Amethyst to open thesecond gate. Open the door and return to where you found the gems you used. Go to the third floor andcollect the Diamond. I needed the Topaz. Diamond. Amethyst and Aquamarine to open the last door.Open the door and go up to the fourth floor. You'll meet the Lord of Jewels.

You have to fight the Lord of Jewels twice. The firsttime he is called the Lord of Jewels 999. In this formhe has two special attacks. He sends out a trio ofcrystals that start to flash with electricity. The lightningthen lances out at your characters for tremendousdamage. His 'searchlight' attack is similar inmagnitude. It is rather short range and is most easilydodged by staying alongside the Lord of Jewels 999.Special moves are your best weapons against this boss.Use them when possible. Evade and Toss are usefulagainst this boss. Once he falls, you'll come face toface with the Lord of Jewels 1000.

In his evolved form, he is much easier. He tends tothrow gems at you and fires a piercing laser. These are easily avoided. His most deadly attack is his


special attack. He summons several large gems and sends them at you at high speeds. To avoid them,stand still and run behind the ones that have already passed you, then stand still again. With enoughpatience, you'll have no problem avoiding his attacks. Use weapons and special moves that attackupwards to hit it best, or you might miss it altogether. When you have finished the battle, you'll see thegreat ending to this series of adventures. Return Home and save your game.

Quest 65: Seeing DoubleRequirements: The Mana Sanctuary must be next to Domina.Required Places: DominaFailure: Can't fail.

Place the Sword of Mana in the empty spot to the leftof Domina. This quest is only available if this step isdone. Don't go into the Mana Sanctuary yet! Avoid theinn in town as well! Enter Domina and you'll see adouble of yourself picking on a Sproutling. Exit on theright and head to the market from there. The samething will happen. Return to the center of town and talkto Teapo at her place next to the item shop. A doubleof Duelle is there. When you exit, you'll see yourdouble for a third time. Follow it to the outskirts oftown and it will reveal itself as Shadow Zero-One! Italso has plans for world domination - with pumpkins!

This thing likes to jump kick you. Just smack it aroundwith a good blade to put it down for the full count. It is not very offensive and should prove to be noproblem for your awesome skills. Return Home and save your game.


Quest 66: Pee-wee BirdieRequirements: The Mana Sanctuary must be next to Domina.Required Places: DominaFailure: The bird explodes.

Go to Domina's Inn and talk to Miss Yuka. She'll ask for a Flat Seed, Topple Cotton, Animal Hide,Baobab Wood, Menos Bronze, Citrisquid, Rotten Meat and Sulfur. These you should have found overthe course of your travels. You can buy some of them from merchants in the various cities and from theMana Tree at Home. When you have given her everything, leave town and return to the inn and talk tothe Birdie. It will give you a ReviveRing. But beware - don't talk to it too much or it will explode and thequest will result in failure! Return Home and save your game after the quest.

You can get Flat Seeds from Trent, or by killing Malboros in the Jungle or Ulkan Mines. You can getRotten Meat from the Ape Mummies in the Underworld and Mindas Ruins. You can buy MenosBronzein Domina's Inn. You get Citrisquid from Trent. You can find Sulfur in the Underworld and in the UlkanMines. You can get Baobab Wood from the Cursed Dolls in the Junkyard. Animal Hide can be gottenfrom many different creatures throughout the game. I haven't found any Topple Cotton yet.

Quest 67: Wimpy ThuglingRequirements: The Mana Sanctuary must be next to the Duma Desert. Both Blessed Elixir and ReachFor the Stars must be done. You can't have any pets with you.Required Places: Duma DesertFailure: Can't fail.

Go to the Duma Desert without a pet. Go one screen to the right and talk to Tikkle. Agree to help him.Go to the upper right twice, then to the right, lower right, upper right, right, and up twice to fight Kima. Ihaven't actually fought this thing yet, and have only heard of it secondhand from a friend (sorry forforgetting who it was!). I can't imagine him being too hard, so just use your special moves to finish himoff. Return Home and save your game after the battle. (Kima looks like a Malboro.)


Quest 68: The Legend of ManaRequirements: Must have completed The Cage of Dreams.Required Places: Mana SanctuaryFailure: Can't fail.

Go to the Mana Sanctuary and go up one screen to trigger the quest. Talk to Pokiehl. Climb up the tree.You'll fight the strongest monsters in this area, so watch out for them. Take an upper right, right, twoupper lefts, right, up, right, three ups and finally an upper right to reach the final part of the level.

Here you'll have to fight four groups of really powerful monsters. Once you kill them, you'll comeface-to-face with the boss of the game. You'll see a Wooding right off the bat. Kill it and its friends andproceed twice to the upper left. You'll fight the Tyranos and friends there. Two upper rights will bringyou to a group of dragons. Finally, two lower rights will bring you to the Gray Ox and pals. Once all fourgroups are dead, you'll do battle with the Mana Goddess.

The Mana Goddess has many physical attacks. Theydon't do much damage, but they tend to add up after awhile. But, more deadly are her special attacks, whichare in fact spells. All her spells are of the Dryad type(but shouldn't be), so be prepared to defend againstthem! To make matters worse, some of her spells arehard to avoid, so come prepared with the Moonsault orEvade abilities equipped to avoid them. Her most basicspell is a whirlwind that surrounds her and deals lots ofdamage (34% to my Rane), but it is easy to avoid.When her robes start billowing in the wind, get behindher, or far away from her, because she summons anexplosion before her feet. This explosion deals moredamage than the last attack (roughly 38% damage tomy Rane). Her last two attacks are based on the phase of the moon in the background. When it is gone,she calls down two rays of light that sweep across the screen, causing major damage (around 53%)!When the moon reappears, she turns into a ray of light and bounces off the edges of the screen, alsodealing too much damage. But yet, she is still a weak boss. Why? She can't stand up to many hits. I killedher with a single Main Gun special attack. Two or three smaller special attacks will do her in too.Attacking her with a second player makes this fight too simple to be a challenge. What a sad way to endthe game.

Once the battle is over, you'll get to watch the ending, as well as the credits. Then you'll have the chanceto make a final save game, allowing you to begin anew with all your stuff, Encyclopedias, pets, golemsand five quests done. This'll allow you to use all of your Home's facilities. You'll also have possession ofthe Forbidden Tome. You can use it to modify the game's difficulty. The first question asks you if youwant peace. Say no, or the difficulty stays the same. The second question asks you if you would like anightmare. Say yes to double the levels of all enemies. Say no to get asked the final question. Then it'llask you if you want a future. Say no to have all enemies raised to level 99! (If you ask me, I'll say this isstill no challenge, but that is me!)


Extra FeaturesThis game contains many extra side things that you can do with your time. You can buildweapons, armour, instruments, golems, grow fruit, and even raise pets! I am not an expert inany of these areas, so please correct me, if I happen to be wrong.

Raising Pets - Monster Corral

You need to have completed the Little Sorcerers quest and the Monster Corral quest beforeyou can begin raising pets. In the latter quest you will learn how to catch monsters. What youneed is fruit and meat. You can find this stuff during your travels. You can also grow the fruit atthe Mana Tree at Home. You then have to find a place where you'll find a monster egg. Thetrick is to drop the right type of food for the egg. The egg will eat it and, if it likes it, it will take anap, allowing you to capture it. It is then brought to your Home.

At the corral you have the option to feed your pets, let them graze, or to take them with you.Taking them with you is obviously a way to level them up. Kill creatures near them to have thecrystals appear next to them, or use a ForbiddenRing to give all your experience to them. Theycan also gain levels by grazing. By using the Produce Encyclopedia, you can upgrade a pet'sskills by feeding it the right foodstuff. They only eat after gaining a level.

If you ever collect more than five monsters, you'll be prompted to discard the new egg or to sellone of your pets. Some get rather high prices! The Chocobo is a good pet to have around atthe start of the game, but it loses its edge to the dragons that you find later at the Snowfieldsand Bone Fortress.

You can find monster eggs at the following locations. There are more eggs available thanlisted, but I have not found them all. I am sure that there is one in Duma Desert, but I guessthat my luck is simply not high enough to find the eggs. Sometimes pets will join your party.Search for a Chobin Hood in the Jungle without a pet!

Norn Peaks: Windcaller Areas (Gloomoths)Fieg Snowfields: Queen Altena's Hill (Land Dragon, Sky Dragon, Kid Dragon)

The Mana Orchard

After completing the Mana Orchard quest, you'll be able to give Trent some seeds and he'llgrow some fruit for you. You can give him up to two groups of two seeds. What grows dependson the number of seeds you have given him, the Mana levels of your Home and the kinds ofseeds given him. I am not sure of the combination, but you can get a Golden Seed from him,which allows you to grow a second Mana Orchard outside of your Home. This you should placenext to the Mana Sanctuary (I would have, had I not put it at the bottom of the map). With theway I placed my lands, I put it next to Geo. Gathering fruit is essential to raising your pets tohigher levels of power. And it only takes seconds every once in a while!

Weaponsmithing

After Path of the Blacksmith you'll be able to build weapons and armour in your workshops. Youcan also modify them with elemental coins and other stuff that you pick up on your travels.When there, you'll be asked for the type of weapon or armour that is to be built and then for thematerial. The more expensive the material the more powerful the final product. For the mostpowerful weapons, stick to making 2H Swords, 2H Axes and Hammers, since you will lose a lotof the attack power if you choose otherwise. Try making a Tuttle Rock/Aerolite (get fromShadow Zero in Bone Fortress) Hammer for a weapon with a strength of 90! For armour, justmake what you need.

By adding stuff to your weapons, you can enhance their elemental properties and add specialeffects to them, as well as increase the damage that they deal. Try using your strongest stuff onthem to do this. Armour is the same way, but you increase your resistance to various attacks byaltering them. Experimentation is the key. I could write down the effects of every material andthe results of any tempering, but I believe that trying it out for yourselves is the best thing to do.And the funnest! You can buy Chaos Crystals and Glow Crystals in Geo. These are importantwhen tempering weapons!Here are some weapons that were submitted. And a flail! Woohoo! Note: Each weapon uses a tactic forboosting all the elemental values of the weapon. That is why the descriptions are so long!

To make it more powerful, use Gold Coins!You can repeat the last four steps to boost the power even more!


Golem Building

After finishing Golem Go Make'Em you'll have the opportunity to build golems in yourworkshops. Golem building is very expensive, so make sure that you have found enoughweapons and armour before trying to assemble one. You need one weapon and one to threepieces of armour. All of the things used to build your golem add to its stats and to the size of itslogic boards. The type of weapon used determines the golem type and its main manner ofattacking. The more pieces of armour, the better the chance of the golem successfullyattacking. So, always use the best quality weapon that you can spare, as well as full suits ofarmour. Personally, I like to match the armour to the weapons. For example, I use Vizel,Lorimar, or Lorant stuff to build a golem. The stronger the base stuff, the better the golem willbe.

You can paint your golem a variety of colors using any spare produce from your orchard. Thisis just for fun.

Now it is time to give the golem its attacks, defenses and special attacks. Go to the urn and getready to build logic blocks. You build them by combining two things into a block. Most thingscan combine into a lot of things, but Bows only combine with instruments. Experimentation isthe key to finding the best logic blocks. When you have enough logic blocks, it is time to inputthem into your golem. Go back to it and pick the logic option. You'll see a grid (6 by 6 at thelargest) into which you can place the various logic blocks that you built. Normally, the morepowerful the block, the more space that it will need. Try putting as many as you can into thelogic circuit to make the best golem you can. And that is how to make golems.

Instrument Construction

Once you have completed Enchanted Instruments 101 you'll have an Instrument Workshop atHome. When you try to construct one, you'll be asked to choose a type. Then you'll be asked tochoose a material and a coin to make the weapon. The material and the type of coin select thepower and elemental type of the instrument being created. In short, by knowing which materialworks best as each instrument type and imbuing it with a gold coin, will result in the strongestinstruments and spells. As far as I can see, the actual spell and area of effect are totallyrandom, with the stronger spells having the cooler names. Another word about the area ofeffects - when it is of the lock type, you have to wait for an enemy to wander into the area ofeffect, and when it is of the fire type, you can let go of the trigger at any time.

Catching Elementals. Go to any place where you can find monster eggs and you have achance of finding elementals. The mana levels of the land have a say as to which elementalswill come around. A land with all the elements at three will be swarming with elementals. Withmy placement, go to Luon Highway to find the best elementals. The higher the mana levels, thebetter your chance of getting gold coins. You can always walk back into the area once you


have gotten a coin or failed. You can play up to eight instruments at a time. Have four do theharmony and four do the melody. This will maximize the chances of an elemental liking thesong. In the Mekiv Caverns, it is possible to catch them without playing any instruments! If youwant to make instruments and elemental weapons, you will need to do this quite often.

Each material is best used for a certain instrument type. The best materials are DiorWood(Woodings - Gato) and DragonScales (any dragon - Bone Fortress). You can get spells with astrength of over a hundred with a gold coin!

SecretsThere are many secrets available in the game. There are three activated by having saved filesfrom other games, as well as others. I will go through all of those that I have found during mytravels.

Renaming Items

By double-clicking on the name of a weapon or armour you can change its name to make itmore personalized!

The Fastest Wheel

Go to Domina and to the empty house in the center of town. Look through the saved files onthe memory card with the current information for your main character. Highlight a saved filefrom Chocobo Racing and exit the screen. Go to Polpota Harbor to meet Skippie. He'll give youthis ring/bracelet. Note: You must have finished Catchin' Lilipeas.

Quick Cash

Some enemies drop valuable things. The dragons in the Bone Fortress drop Dragon Steakswhich sell for 1000 Lucre. Polter Boxes in the SS Buccaneer drop interesting stuff too. Try tofind out other places where you can get quick cash. This is very useful to know when it is timeto build golems.

Duels

You can invite another player to battle your character at the Underground Battle Arena in Geo.It is under Kristie's Palace. It is a great way to find out who has the best character amongst agroup of friends! This can be fun...

Chocobo

Go to Domina and to the empty house in the center of town. Look through the saved files onthe memory card with the current information for your main character. Highlight a saved filefrom Final Fantasy VIII. Now head to the outskirts of town to catch the monster egg. It'll be achocobo. Chocobos are much stronger than the rest of the monsters you can get.
