How to get Ragnar in Chapter 5
To get Ragner in Chapter 5, go back to Keeleon Castle and unlock the
doors with the Magic key. Go up to where you scared the minister and
Ragner will be there.
How to get to the hidden well
To get to the hidden well, talk to everyone in Izmit village (in the day and
at night.) Then go back to Alex's wife in Burland. She will want you to
take you to Alex. Take her to him and then Alex will tell you how to get there.
How to get the Magic Key
To get the Magic Key, get Brey, Alena, and Cristo so that you have the
Thief's Key back. Then, go back to the Cave West of Kievs. Go to the
treasure box that has the Lamp of Darkness in it (It is on the other
side of a river near the sphere) Open this box and you will find a
button in it. This button will make a hidden stairway appear which
leads to the Magic Key. (You will need to unlock a Thief's Key door
to get to it.)
How to get the Zenithian Helm
To get the Zenithian Helm, go to the king of Stancia. Talk to him and try
to make him laugh (you won't be able to.) After you try to do this, go
back to Monbaraba. Talk to the the master there and you will be allowed
to get the jester who is performing here to join your party. Take him to
the king and he will make him laugh. The king will reward you with
the Zenithian Helm.
Defeating the Metal Slimes, King Metals, and Metal Babbles
Sent in by John
To defeat the Metal Slimes, King Metals, and Metal Babbles, you need to
equip at least one of your active party members with the swordedge
armor. When the metal guys cast a spell on that member, the armor
will return a small amount of the damage, usually enough to defeat
them. Also, use the Zenithian Shield as an item at the beginning of
nearly every battle, it reflects spells back on their caster.
Zenithian Sword tip
Sent in by John
Once the Dragon Master has blessed the Zenithian Sword, use it to
cause enemies to loose their special spell protections (makes their
spells wear off).

Warning for the item shop in the town south of Lakanaba
Sent in by Yutz
In Chapter 3, the town south of Lakanaba is Foxville. The Item shop may
seem to have some good deals, but don't buy them. The Broad Sword for
10 GP is really a Cypress Stick, and the Medical Herb for 8 GP is really a
Gum Pod.
Geting experience at the end
Sent in by Andrew Crawford
At the last refuge, fill up with life and magic. Go back into the last cave
and build up experience for Necresaro. There are many metal babbles and
king metal slimes in here and if you find and kill them they give loads
of experience points.
Get the Sword of Malice
Sent in by Brandon Smith
In Chapter three (Taloon the arms merchant) you would normally think
the Abacus of Virtue is the most powerful weapon with a power of +35.
But there is a way to get the Sword of Malice with +45. All you have
to do is go work in the Lakanaba weapons shop until someone sells the
Sword of Malice. As soon as that happens quit and then buy it for 3500GP!
Get money in Chapter 5
Sent in by Brandon Smith
The fastest way to get money in Chapter 5 is to go to Stanteem castle.
There you will find an enemy called a "Mystic Doll" (they look like a
pink statue). They aren't worth much experience, but their worth 300GP
each! This is a good tip if you want to buy the 15,000GP Metal Babble
Armor at Endor.
Where is the Fire Claw?
Sent in by Benoit Riopel
The fire claw is in basement of Gardenbur. Behind a stair, go up in
this stair when you go down, it's black, north of the stair open the
door in the north and go to the basement where you'll find it.
Win free coins for the casino
When you get all of the characters in the game, go back to the cave
connecting Braca and Endor and travel through it a couple times. If
you're lucky you'll hear music as if you have just won at the casino.
A screen will pop up saying "Congratulations you're the 5000 person to go
through this tunnel, etc, etc." You'll win free coins for the casino!

Get better weapons in the Cave of the Silver Statuette
In the Cave of the Silver Statuette don't open any of the treasure chests
other than the Statuette chest. In chapter 5, there will be excellent
weapons for the new hero in the chests.
Lots of gold and infinite casino chips
Save your game just before you go into the third chapter. Then, enter in
this Game Genie Code: LNUOLONY. Go to the third chapter and now you
will have the Final Key in your inventory. The first thing you should do
is go below the weapon shop you work at and open the door there to get
an Ice Blade Sword. Now, play the game normally until you get to Endor.
Buy your store as normal, but when you get 15000 Gold from selling,
go to the secret shop in Endor by unlocking some doors in Endor. You
should then buy the Metal Babble Armor. Sell this to the guy who works
at Bonmalmo Castle collecting armor. You should sometimes be able to
get 99,999 gold from him! Use this money to buy the tunnel and to buy
weapons and casino chips to carry over to the other chapters. Also,
with this code, it is possible to get infinite casino chips.
