• Easy Weapons

Here's a little cheat to get those powerful weapons faster. Here's what you have to do. First activate the configuration mode and select yes when ask if you want to control enemies. Next enter a battle with enemies that have those rare weapons. When you take control of the enemy, make him discard his weapon(if he has one). After that you can either cast Egress or finish the battle. Finally go to any town, enter a shop and go to the DEALS option. You should be able to find the weapons you discarded from enemies in earlier battles. You can also "steal" any ring and rare item that enemies may be carrying.

[final kaoss]

• Enchanted Item: Engulf Sword

The Engulf Sword can be found near Granseal's (the city) "Blood Volcano". Search the exit of the path, near some bushes. If you equip this sword to a cursed team-mate, you wont be able to "unequip" it, but you wont want to anyway, whereas it casts the famous "cover" spell each time it is used. The cover spell puts a blackish-grey cloud over your enemy and slowly drains the mp, hp, and kp, much like the "Jilon" spell.

• Super God

Get Sheela's boost spell up to level 2 and get all of your characters within casting range, and simply cast it. Wait until it wears off and cast it again - you can get her up to level 99 this way and she will have at least 200 HP, 150 MP, 175 attack, 160 defense, and 225 agility. This makes her stronger than Volcanon. Try and select a random battle to try this trick in, like the one near Yeal. Choose a hard battle and you just might not make it.

[final kaoss]

• Super Strength

Get your character's experience to 99, exactly 99, not one less, not one more(you can achieve it by attacking your opponents barehanded to gain 1 exp). Then by using the control opponent code, use an enemy who has the spell of confuse. Cast it on a character in your party, not the enemies! If he hits and then the character will go a level up and have a life meter of 200 and the other attributes are with. Note: This code is confirmed on the Japanese version of the game as well as the American version.

[jariesuicune]

It should be noted that in Japanese versions, you can't get to the Vigor Ball in the Hidden Glen; the trees are solid with no hidden path.

[jariesuicune]

This needs a slight fix: the spell has to be Muddle (confuse) Lv. 2 (it can't just be Lv. 1). Also, they don't just level up instantly. WHILE under Muddle Lv. 2, they have to attack an ally successfully. (During Muddle Lv. 2, you can't control the character at all, and they will most likely miss the attack).

Also, when I've tested this, it seems like you can only do this trick on 2 or 3 characters. I'm no sure, though. (Each one I tried past that just gained normal Exp. and didn't get super-stats)
