Tricks
Encounter Manipulation
Manipulation is caused by the frame which we start walking. By means of this, we can manipulate the appearing enemy.
Double experience
Fighting with only one person gives a lot of experience.
Run away from boss
With low probability, we can run away.
Glitches
Central Tower Room Keep Baggage glitch (All versions)
Inventory Glitch
- Empty the inventory of a character which we want to activate the glitch.
- After going to central Tower's Friend Room, after selecting character with items, cancel.
- Then select character without items, and then item count will go from 0 to 255 temporarily.
- Then, since otherwise item count reset to 0 after leaving the storage room, store the 255th item so that he has 254 items.
- Originally, a character can only carry up to 16 items, so the 17th item refers to the memory address after the 16th. Because of this, one can manipulate the Nei status to give any desired item.
- Mainly, it is quick to manipulate the numbers so we use the EXP. In order to get Teim, until Lv. 6 we raise Strength, Agility, and Attack to 22, 40, 11 by manipulation.
Produced items
- Storm Gear: complete attack items, enemy animation cut, extra bought items cut.
- To clear Teim bridge event we need:
Nei Shield, Nei Shot, Nei Cape, Nei Armor, Nei Emel, Nei Met, Nei Crown.
- Of the 8 Nei Series required to enter the final dungeon, we eventually collect 7 of them.
- Moon Dew: At the main player's house, in order to add an ally, it is necessary to be revived.
List order glitch (JPN only)
- When one gets 4 allies, select list order, and then press C key for a fixed interval while holding the up key, and a glitched character will appear. This character cannot be selected voluntarily.
- Until a character with Nei Sword and Nei Slicer appears, several kinds of glitches occur. When we use these glitches, Nei Sword becomes available to use, and we can Warp to the Hall of Esper from anywhere except the final dungeon (once only).
- After going to the Hall of Esper, when we talk to Lutz, we collect all the Nei Series so we can enter the final dungeon.
Changes from previous version.
- When using Storm Gear, animation is cut for one weapon. Also cut for buying armor. 2 minutes saved.
- Storm Gear Getting Battle 4500 frame are lost.
- In order not to need to collect armor, make Agility as 40 to be less than armor address. 8 frames saved.
- Address for Moon Dew obtaining is changed from Will stat to Strength. 2 frames saved.
- To change the result of the enemy battle, even though we escape from Dark Force and Mother Brain battles, 200 frames are lost.
