For more info,read the Frequently asked question on #13. ____________________________________________________________________________ Shortcut to Doctor Tung There are two ways to get Doctor Tung.The first way is to ride the raft.the second way,which is the shortcut way only applies when you have got the water scroll where the 3 poles is and float to the left on the water.You should be able to save Doctor Tung now.Don't climb the 3 poles. For more info,refer to the bincho list above ____________________________________________________________________________ Macho's Secret You can play a game of cards against Macho at the restaurant.It's easy.Macho will choose a card.The game consists of guessing whether the next card picked will be higher or lower than the original card picked by macho.Simple concept!Each costs 100 Drans and each time,you guess correctly,you will double your winning.However,if you guessed wrongly,all your earnings will be lost.If you manage to defeat Macho 10 times in a row within a single game, you will earn 102,400 Drans.That's a lot and consider how much enemy will you need to be defeat in order to 102,400 Drans.If you win the 10th game, Macho will longer be playing cards with you.So,if you win till the 9th game, that is 51,200,it's best to take back your winnings and then try again,if not you won't be able to play the cards for the rest of the game.Good luck on your guessing.May the god of fortune be with you. ____________________________________________________________________________ Musician's Secret:Full Scale Orchestra Did you know that with each musician you rescue,his particular instrument, such as flute is added to the background music of the castle?Once you've rescued them all,the music turns into a full-scale orchestra score - useless to the game, but is in fact a welcome addition. ____________________________________________________________________________ Easy Drans There are many ways to earn Drans. 1)Remember the 500Drans in Steamwood near where you saved Acrobat Sausages. Simply take the Drans,exit Steamwood and go in to get the Drans again. 2)Play against Macho,provided you are lucky. Refer to Macho secret at Mannick's restaurant above. 3)Go to the mines and find one of the places where Cure Worm fall down.For your info,there's one there on your way to getting Gondola Gizmo.If you stand in the right place,you can stand hitting them with Lumina as they fall,only moving to collect money.In this way,you can make tons of cash as well as experience in very little time. Credits:Thanks to for telling me about ways to earn drans. 4)Go to the underground temple underneath the restaurant.In the bowler plant door,near to the entrance, there is a platform with two plants facing each others on it.You can kill one, run to the other,kill it, and by that time the first has regenerated.This method gives you money,but also experience for all your stats. Credits:Thanks to Thorfinn Taitfor easy drans. 5)By far,the best place to earn your experience and Drans is at Somnolent Forest before the Meandering Forest.The enemies like Hopper keeps regenerating very fast and besides it is very easy to defeat. 6)Remember the 2 poles near where you find Leno is at Twinpeak Mt.There is 100 Drans on top of each pole.take the drans,exit and return to get the Drans and repeat the procedure over again.Besides,magician regenerate very fast and teleport in front of you and is a good place to max your stats. 7)After entering the cave(where you meet Hotelo at Chapter 3) and come out,as you go up,you will see 100Drans scattered around.Take the Drans, enter the cave,and exit to collect the Drans again.Repeat the procedure again.The disadvantage is that there isn't any enemies but you get to earn many mind exp. ____________________________________________________________________________ Three Endings First Ending:Complete the game anytime.After talking to the King and Queen of Allucaneet,you will be shown the credits and later a scene showing Musashi seals Lumina back in the spiral tower. Second Ending:Complete the game any days after one year,to be shown another different ending. Tips:You may have not reached one year,so go to your room at the castle and sleep.Each time you sleep,8 hours will past and finally one year will come soon. Note:I haven't tried it before so tried it yourself! Note:There are quite a number of people who have told me that the second ending doesn't work.Try it at your own RISK!!! Credit:Thanks to Carlos for telling me about the second ending. Third Ending:This is by far the hardest ending to get because not many of you can get Jon and Leno and DLumina 3 action figure.After collecting all action figure,including special edition(Of course,that includes finding all Minkus to get Mon Minku and finding 35 Bincho Field to get Princess Fillet.),complete the game again.The ending will resume to normal,showing the credit and after the Squaresoft Logo,you will be shown a special FAN ART PICS containing all the characters in the game,with the word "PERFECT!!!Thanks for playing!".Save the game and the 'FIN' save will turn pink. Credits:Thanks to Rick4Lyf@aol.com for telling me the third ending. Refer to secrets section for info on unlocking Special Action Figures. ____________________________________________________________________________ Plant Regenerating Simply,use water scroll and shoot water bubbles at hopper or ice plant,they will grow larger in size. ____________________________________________________________________________ GameShark Codes(US) For Brave Fencer Musashi Infinite HP 80078eb20172 80078eb40172 80078EB20212 80078EB40212 Infinite BP 80078eb60172 80078eb80172 80078EB60212 80078EB80212 Infinite Drans 80078e8e0001 Quick Level Gain 80078f08ffff All Rescues Complete (1) 800ba1f80101 800ba1fa0101 800ba1fc0101 800ba1fe0101 800ba2000101 800ba2020101 800ba2040101 800ba2060101 800ba2080101 800ba20a0101 800ba20c0101 800ba20e0101 All Rescues Complete (2) 800ba2100101 800ba2120101 800ba2140101 800ba2160101 800ba2180101 300ba21a0001 Time 00:00:00 80078E7C0000 80078E7E0000 Tired at 0% 80078EA600A0 Stop Village Rescue Timer 80078E90BE2A (Getting Aqualin) 80078E92041B Stop Valve Reset Timer 801204A80700 (Saving Steamwood) All Legendary Armor Pieces 300AE64B00FF 300AE64C00FF Learned all 6 Techniques 800AE658FFFF Invincible 30126C004115 Infinite Double Jumps 80126D980000 Once having the L-Belt That's all the codes i can get.But remember don't use these codes too often.
