Extra difficulty levels

Complete over 45% of the voice collection. Then a phrase will appear
on the button in the right corner of the screen. Press this button to
restart the game. Now new difficulty levels, including "Universal"
will be selectable. Monsters will have double the HP and attack power
under the "Universal" level. 
 


Discovering Talents
When you learn the super specialty skill "Orchestra", and have enough 
songs and instruments for each character, use this skill and for a short 
time, you will be able to create items without the necessary talents. 
(For Example: cooking without the talent "Sense Of Smell".) While the 
song is playing, you will have the chance to learn a new talent by using your 
specialty skills. (For Example: While the orchestra song is playing, 
use the cooking "Machinery" skill to learn the talents Dexterity and Sense of 
Design.)


Easy Level Up
Use Reverse Side to make a forged medal, and then duplicate it as many 
times as you want to with Reproduction. The forged medals bring a character 
to 1 point under a level up.


Easy Money
When you get your Super Specialty Skill "Master Chef" up to level 6 or higher, 
go to a store that sells fruits, vegetables, and egg/dairy products. But 20 of each, 
then go to Super Specialty Skills and choose "Master Chef" in the item screen, 
then pick 1 fruit and 1 dairy. Every other try or so (depending on your skill level) 
you should create "Coconut Milk" which sells for overy 1000 Fol a piece!! You can 
also take 2 vegetables and make "Fried Vegetables" which sells for over 2000 Fol 
a piece! 

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


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


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


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


Priest's Password
In the demon's den there is a glass priest who asks you for the special word 
necessary to get the cardkey. The password is APOCA.


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


The Ring of Happiness
When you are told to go to the town of Cross for the first time,stop in Alen's house 
on your way through. Talk to him twice. The second time he should give you 
the "Ring of Happiness".


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


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


Go back to Expel
When you are about to meet the final boss save and head back out of the tower 
and go to fun city and talk to the old man in the battle arena and answer every 
question with "yes". WARNING: I haven't found a way back to Nede ^_^


Secret Shop
During the second disk after you get the Synard fly around the snowy islands and 
between the 2 large islands are 3 smaller ones land on the middle island and run 
around unitll the screen fades a way and you end up some where.


Getting the Enternal Sphere
First get the Sharp Edge from Gamgee after the tournament of arms then use the 
customize speciatly and combine it with mithril and then you'll get the minus 
sword, then combine another piece of mithril and you'll have the Enternal Sphere 
(it helps to have the orchestra playing while doing this) ^_^


Going to and from Ned
When you reach the final save before the last boss, save your game. Then, leave 
Feenal (or whatever it's called) and head for Fun City. When you get there, go to 
the Battle Arena. Talk to the old guy in the back of the colluseum. Answer 'yes' to 
all of his questions and you'll be transported back to Arlia. Feel free to explore 
Expel as long as you want. When you complete the Trial Cavern (or are done 
exploring), head back to Arlia. Next to the Item shop there's a small pen with what 
looks like a penguin walking around in it. Talk to it and it will say something 
unintelligible. You then have two options. They're something like 1) I don't 
understand. 2) Stupid something. If you pick the second option, the 'penguin' will 
send you back to Ned. If you want to return, just talk to the old guy again. Good 
luck!


Fight the Harder Version of the Final Boss
(To do this you must have seen the private action at Clik) 
Save in front of the final boss and head back out the tower and go back to Central 
City and do a private action, then go into City Hall and you will see the same girl 
that was at Clik trying to warn the people about whats is going to happen. Now you 
can go fight the Boss. 
The Final boss usualy has 500,000HP but now he has 1,500,000HP! most of his 
spells do 9999 damage which would kill you outright. all I have to say is good luck, 
you'll need it. ^_^


Funny Slayer
This tip is for receiving the 'Funny Slayer' sword, before the 'Cave of Trials'. Here's 
how you do it, after finishing up the 'Lacour, Tournament of Arms', go to the tiny 
town of Salva. There you'll see a worried looking man named Raddle the Traveler. 
By talking to him he'll ask which way is it to Herlie. Replying 'North' will be the 
correct answer, and he will thank you and be off. Then, after conquering 
the 'Mountain Palace'. Go to the slightly bigger city of Mars. Going inside the the 
only store on the west side you will see Raddle the Traveler again. Talking to him 
will have him respond by saying that he lost his way and will ask you for directions 
again. Now say that Herlie is further east. Finally go and retrieve Leon, for the 
mission to retrieve the Energy Stone. Once you have retrieved the Energy Stone, 
go look around Hilton. If you have done everything I told you, you will see Raddle 
the Traveler. Tell him the proper direction to Herlie again. Now, in the second disk, 
when you go back to 'Virtual Expel', you will see Raddle the Traveler in the hotel in 
Herlie. He will thank you profoundly and give you a token of his gratitude. The 
sword will be the 'Funny Slayer'. Now you can beat the Level 6 boss with ease.

Powerful Equipment early in the game
To get real powerful gear early in the game go to the port town of Herlie and 
purchase the thieves gloves at 40,000 fol a pair. Also purchase the skills from all 
the towns so far. To help earn more money increase the playful skill. It will help 
you raise money early. Also build your skills until you learn pickpocket. With one 
of your characters, if they don't have it already, learn the talent dexterity. When 
you have built your pickpocket skill to 10 and have the dexterity ability high. Save 
your game outside of the town of Mars and enter. Equip the Thief gloves and steal 
off the elder. If you fail, just reload your save. Repeat until you get the ? box. 
Once again step outside of town and save. Then open the box. You will get three 
random items. If the items are not to your liking, just reload your save. Some of 
the items you can get are the Force Sword or Battle armor. Far superior 
equipment that won't be found until disc 2 of the game.


Increased steal chance
If you decide to get Precis in your party, she joins with the ability title machinist or 
something similar. Buy as many machine kits as you can from the local stores and 
have her use the command until she gets the magicians gloves, which has a higher 
steal chance than the thieves gloves.


Easy level gain
Early in the game, to make things easier, its best to levl off of some strong, yet 
able to kill monsters. When you go to Cross and get Celine head to the Cross cave 
and level to about 10. Leave the cave and go to the town of Mars just northeast of 
the Cross cave. Fighting in the forest outside of the town you will sometimes run 
into some hour glass creatures which give about 1,500 exp per battle. With the fol 
you earn after combat, buy your best equipment in Mars and also purchase the 
brigandine for Claude in the port town just east of Mars. Purchase the skills at the 
guild as well, they will come in handy to have them now. When you are about level 
15 to 20, head to the mountain north west of Cross Castle. On the mountain you 
will fight some very strong monsters, some of which could kill your party in one 
hit. Recharge as often as needed, and save often, head back to Cross to heal 
hp/mp as necessary. You also have a high chance of obtaining the Walloon sword. 
A very powerful weapon for Claude this early in the game.


Easy Money
To perform this cheat you will need Ashton in your group. When you first reach 
energy Nede, buy 20 Lotus Eaters meant for Ashton. Buy iron ore and make them 
into Orihalcum. Go to the next town and buy the instruments there. If you have 
bought all the instruments you can so far you should be able to learn some songs 
and open up the Orchestra ability. Use it to up your chances of creating the 
Orihalcum and when you have the 20 you need. Continue using Orchestra and 
customize the Lotus Eaters with Orihalcum, you will create the Melufa which sell for 
1.5 million fol apiece! To make even more money use the identify all skill and sell 
high for more cash. Do this as many times as desired for large sums of cash flow.
