Tales Of Symphonia
Cheat Codes/Hints
Hint: Sheena
You must be at least level 25 to get Sheena.
Hint: Sheena: Alternate costume
After you go to Mithos' Castle and open the door after you defeat the dark dragon, go to Mizuho. Talk to the person in the chief's house. Go to the Lightning Temple and talk to the spirit of the chief at the altar where you fought Volt. Go back to Mizuho and the chief will wake up. He will ask for Sheena to spend a day at Mizuho. When you return, you will see that Sheena has been chosen for the next chief, and you will get Sheena's alternate chief costume.

Hint: Summon Spirit Maxwell
In order to find the Summon Spirit Maxwell, you must first find the Derris Emblem in Derris-Kharlan (which is late in the game, near the end ). Then, go to Exire (Half-elves village ) and go to the house with a man inside. He is the person that says that a team of half-elves and humans is a rare combination. Go up the stairs in front of his house and walk around to get to the back, which leads to secret passage. Walk until you see a tombstone. Equip the Ring of Fire, Water, Earth, Wind (which are Ruby, Aquamarine, Opal, Garnet). Then, you will fight Maxwell. He has 60,000 HP (easy mode in the customize menu) or 90,000 HP (hard mode). He also knows strong level 3 magic spells such as Thunder Arrow, Raging Mist, and Meteor Swarm.
Hint: Titanic reference
In Palmacosta on the ship by the town square, there are people on the front imitating the famous scene from Titanic.
Hint: View skit scripts
You can view the script of all the Z skits by going to Katz Island on Sylvarant and talking to the mayor (the cat that spins) several times. You can view the script for all the conversations, even ones you have not had yet.
Hint: Zelos: Getting good items
The items that Zelos charms from females using his Personal EX Skill is dependent on his luck rating, which changes every time he talks to a female. You can increase his chances of getting good items (for example, Energy Tablets, Hourglass, Rune Bottle) by equipping him with two Rabbit's Feet. These can be bought in Luin. It is a good idea to buy them early, before you meet Zelos, to get a head start on the item collecting.
Hint: Zelos: Roses
In order for Zelos to have roses, you must have Zelos' Narcissist title and the Devil's Arm "Fafnir". Equip them both at the same time. Fight a few battles and eventually his dagger will turn into a few roses. After the battle, Zelos' roses will disappear.
