For easy EXP.go to the tunnel above Aideo. When you find a pack of zol slugs kill all of them but two and use defense on everybody until the two slugs turn into one big one. Kill it and you will get at least 400 EXP.

For quick leveling up, go to the area near Termi. Then walk around until you encounter a bunch of normal worms. Kill all of them except one. Then wait for it to change into a sandworm. Allow the character whom you want to increase level to stay alive while the others get killed by the sandworm. This will let you gain 19000++ experience points.

To get the Cyber suit armor, use the Hydrofoil to go to the island called Soldiers Temple. When you reach the island, you'll meet Seth. When you check his stats, he will have the Cyber-Suit armor. De-equip him of this armor and his weapon and just use him as a punching bag for enemys.*Spoiler* {He turns out to be a bad guy a little later in the game} The Cyber-Suit he is carrying will enhance your attack.

After getting the Elsydeon return to Rykros, go to the south and explore. The blue tower appears only after getting the Elsydeon, but holds the second suit of Guard-Mail, and if you value your life just say *!NO!* to Megid. (You'll see why if you say yes.)

Here's a partial list of items and their powers in the game.

Item Power

Laco Rod Efess
Eclipse Torch St. Fire
Fire Sword Flaei
Torndagger Hewn
Thunderclaw Tandle
Dream Rod Bindwa
Moon Slasher Moon Shadow

If you ever happen to get a character to reach level 99, this odd glitch will occur. Instead of putting a level cap, when you reach level 99 all of your characters will be leveled down to around 40~50. And everytime you should go up a level, your character will go down another level. Although your stats screen will still say you are level 99.

After you've finished the game, you can access Music Test by pressing B on the Start/Continue/Erase screen.

WARNING: This code can be hazardous to your characters' health if they're too weak.

Take on the Silver Soldier mission after returning to Motavia, follow the directions, and go north of the Plate System to an island. The fort here has easy foes with 2000+ exp. each. Kill off all but Wren(and any other *character* you want to build fast and fight as much as possible. You can get 10,000-20,000 exp. a battle.

NOTE: This trick will *NOT* be an option if you don't take the Silver Soldier mission before getting the Elsydeon.

To equip Chaz with the tremendously powerful "Shadow Blade", hunt Shadow Sabers in Zio's Fort. (Shadow Sabers are easy to spot because of their neon-green swords.)
