Hidden items from a statue
Sent in by Selyates@aol.com
In Nobilia, go to the place where there's statues of cobras and make the dog
sniff. After a while your dog will sniff out a statue. Talk to it and it says
something like "Why are you talking to me? Kids these days!" Talk to it
many times and you get items in this order: water, meteorite, dry ice,water.

Get the bazooka
Sent in by Tim
When you first arrive at Ebon Keep, go in the armor store and Cecil from
Final Fantasy 2 will be running the store. When he asks if you know him,
say yes and he'll give the bazooka with one thunder ball. It's useful
against Verminator.
Preacher in Nobila gives you the same items over and over again
Sent in by Frank Brousseau
1) Go to him and he'll talk all about that mumbo jumbo stuff. Keep
pressing B until he say "This is a video game. Don't you see? We are
characters in a video game." When the list of what to turn him into
pops up. Cancel the screen and get an item from him.
2) Go to the Inn and save.
3) Reset and go back to the Preacher. Repeat the process.
4) Go back to the Inn and save.
5) Reset and go back.
ETC.
6) When the Preacher starts giving you a Jewel and only one Jewel, stop.
7) Wait for the fight between Vigor and you.
8) In the dungeon your put in with your so called 'Sacred Dog', have him
sniff around to locate the secret room.
9) Instead of the Centriun or what ever it's called being there, you'll get
the Thug's Cloak. How strange and cool when you should get it later in
the game, in Ivor Tower. For the items you get from the Preacher, when
you in a different world like Prehistoria, later, later, later in the game, go
back to Nobila to do the same technique of getting free items from the
Preacher. You'll probably have better armor. So sell the junk for moola!!!!
Make money just by exchanging currency in Nobila
Sent in by Frank Brousseau
1) Before you go to a new world, have a ton of money. Let's say
100,000 dollars in Talons, Jewels, Gold Coins, or Credits.
2) Go to the Currency Exchanger and exchange each and every one of them.
3) You'll probably get over 456,908 dollars. This trick is only for when
you have gotten near the ending of the game.
Get a lot of Amulet of Annilhations
Sent in by Frank Brousseau
1) Just purchase a ton of Rice in Nobila from the seller who sells it for 3 Jewels.
2) Go to the seller who sells the Amulets. He'll want 30 bags of rice!
No problem. Say no and he'll reduce it to 15 Bags. Accept.
3) Keep saying no for him to put it down to 15.
4) When your low on Rice, go back to the Rice Seller. Purchase a ton
more Rice until you can't get anymore.
5) Go back to the Amulet Seller and do the trick. Try to get 99 of them.
Get Spot's Collar without spending money
Sent in by Jim Carlson

you get the Windwalker go to Strong Heart's hut, and have the dog talk
to Strong Heart. He should give the dog Spot's Collar.
Get rick quick
Sent in by Robert Z
In the very first part of the world the easiest way to make talons is go
to the village buy 6 herbal essences and then go to the place next to
bugmuck there is a shop with a raptor and 3 carni flowers in the area kill
all enemies on the way there and sell the herbal essences at that place and
you can sell them for 60 more talons then you bought them for (which is
selling for 75 and you buy them for 15) and I did that for a while and I
was able to buy the Amulet of Annihilation the guy was selling at the
next place for 10,000 jewels and still had plenty of money.
Where do you find the Diamond Eye in the pyramid?
Sent in by Daniel Mullins
First, you have to put your dog in the switch room. Then go with the kid
into the pyramid. Then follow the path until you have to choose to go left
or right. Go left. Keep going straight until you see an opening (the second
opening). Go into it and take a right then go down until you see stairs.
Kill the guys on the stairs and go through the door. Now your on top of
the pyramid. Go south then down another set of stairs. Then go through
the door. I kind of forgot the rest of the instructions but I know once you
find the two buff pharos with masks on you kill them and they will give
you the Axe. Use it to chop down weak walls. Then go find the room
where your dog is and chop down the weak wall. Now you have your dog.
Then go to the top of the pyramid. There is a gate up there. Push select
and step on the switch with your dog. Then push select again and step on
the other switch. You will automatically walk in the door. Kill the gold
statue with Crush. Now you have the diamond eye.
Sting spell
Sent in by Ryan Fitzgerald
To get the Sting spell for sure with out spending lots of time in the
desert follow these steps.
You must come out of the Nobilia marketplace into the desert. Press
Select and be the dog. Hold the attack button and run so you have unlimited
run. Run to the right until a tumble weed starts to follow you. Now run
straight down and you will come right to it.
Infinite bazooka shells
Sent in by Lord Qaos
To have infinite bazooka shells (thunderball and cryo bloast only), after
you find as many as you can, go to the store and buy as many as you can.
If you can get over 100, they will not run out.
Get lots of experience points
Sent in by Jessie F. Messer
To get a lot of levels fight the Scull Claws on the chess board! There
worth 400 experience and 50 gold coins! And they sometimes drop 150 gold
coins, Pixie Dust, or more commonly Honey! There also great to Level
magic on!
Beating Carltron's Robot
Sent in by Sirk of Elfi
Here's an easy way to beat Carltron's Robot. Right when the battle
begins, cast Berrier. You do not need to, but if this is your first try, do
it. Then (this is the cool part) dash to the top left-hand corner of the
battle ground. Push north a bit and find a secret space. From here the
battle is over...Cast Energize (to speed things up) and equip yourself
with Laser Lance. Just keep throwing LL until he dies. The best part is
that he can not hurt you!!
Mad monk tip
Sent in by S.O.S
The mad monk at Crustia will give you a Chooco Boo Egg, Magic Ground,
and Meteorite if you buy that amulet for 10,000 jews.
Fighting the probes
Sent in by John Michael Hancock
At the space station in Onitopia instead of sending your dog out to kill
the probes use crush on them it only does 1 hit point of damage but it
kills them anyway.
Nobillia tip
Sent in by Rex Greenwald III
When you are sent to go after the wheel, pressure gauge, or diamond eyes,
go back to Nobillia instead and you will be able to enter the palace! Even
better, Horrace is inside and will give you the shield formula! Use this
one with the energize formula to kill any boss without taking single hit!
It makes Carltron easier than a mosquito.
Diamond Eyes
Sent in by Crimson Raven
Once you get the Wheel and the Temperature Gauge, go talk to Tink, and
he will tell you that you still need the Diamond Eyes. Now, go back to
where you got the Temperature Gauge and get it again. Take this second
Temperature Gauge to Tink and he will act as thought you gave him the
Diamond Eyes. Then you get sent to Omnitopia, plus you still have the
extra Temperature Gauge!
Acid rain
Sent in by Zachary Hubert
To find acid rain, check off the trail after you beat Thrax the giant
bug and save Stronghaeat. There is a hidden passage and a man who
will give you it.
Locked up in Nobilia tip
Sent in by Kefka
In Nobilia, when you're locked in the dungeon to prepare for the fight
in the arena, take everything out of the pots in the room. Then have
your dog sniff around. If he's sniffing in the right spot, he'll find a
hidden passage leading to the armor you'll need to finish the arena fight.
Beating Carlton
Sent in by Michael Donnell
The best way to defeat Carlton is after every enemy you beat heal yourself
with your most powerful formula and keep using energize to have full
power on your pow meter.
Speed spell
Sent in by Brian Bonnell
To find the speed spell you go through the volcano and into its core,
defeat the viper commander and get another mud pepper for the last
rock then go back and you will end up in a room with a tunnel going
down on the bottom left corner and a tunnel going up in the top right.
Go to the bottom right corner and keep going left and you meet the
alchemists who gives you the spell speed.
Chocobo Egg
Sent in by Kyle Shaw
Here's an easy way to get the Chocobo Egg. Go to the market
and keep buying pots till you find the egg in on off the jars.
Lance
Sent in by Kyle Shaw
To get Lance, go into Ivor tower and go to each house and talk to
everyone. Once you come to a house and a lady tells you that
her husband Lance has not returned, go up the stairs and go to
the right you will see 2 chests. Leave them alone. Head for the
stairs and before you can go down them, Lance will stop you and
give you a spell. To get Sting, walk through the desert and
stop at each Oasis. After a while you will see a man in one of
them and he will give you Sting (cross the desert a couple of
times). This spell summons a swarm of killer bees.

In the battle against Vigor in the colosseum, look into
the center of the audience. There, in box seats, some
Final Fantasy 3 characters will be watching the show!
Nobilia traders
Sent in by The Nobilia Trade Committee
The Nobilia traders are not very smart. They will allow you
to just keep making money off of them if you know the correct
order of trading! Here are the ways to make money from the
traders: 1. Buy rice at the stand for 3 jewels a bag. Then go to
the Appraiser and sell them to her for 4 jewels a bag! 2. Buy
rice at the stand for 3 jewels a bag. Then go buy beads at the
stand for 3 jewels and 1 bag o' rice. Sell your beads to the
appraiser for a profit. 3. Buy rice at the stand for 3 jewels a
bag. Then go and buy pots for two bags of rice each. You can sell
these to the appraiser for a profit, too, and you will also make
additional cash from jewels found inside of the pots! Also, this
way you will not lose money searching for the Chocobo Egg. Also,
stock up on spice, beads, and perfume on your first visit, because
this will save you money later in the game.
Item tip
Sent in by Excerion@aol.com
Once you get something like the Thug's Cloak, Moxa Stick,
Ruby Heart, Wizard's Coin, etc., don't trade it for anything
else, even another relic, particularly one that has little use.
Try to get all the relics, and only give them up if they've
served their intended purpose (Like the Queens Key. Trade
it for Fire power after you've looted the castle. Speaking
of the key, you have to find an old woman in the air vents
who'll give it to you.)
Preacher in Nobilia trick
Sent in by Excerion@aol.com
Talk to the preacher in Nobilia several times, and listen to his
messages, which are, by the way, quite true. Eventually you get
the choice to turn him into a chicken, goat, or basket. Try a basket
for a bit of extra humor. And funnier-you can talk to this basket!
Chicken trick
Sent in by Excerion@aol.com
If you talk to a chicken in Nobilia 100 times, particularly in the
chicken-sellers booth) a voice will say "Do not taunt the chicknes!
Taunt the goats if you like, but leave the chickens alone!" or
something like that. Then an explosion will reduce you to one
hit point. You can do it again, if you want. Once you do this, the
chicken seller will say "As much as I hate to sell my chickens-especially
to a chicken-taunter like you..."and the guy feeding chickens in the
north square will say "These chickens are for sale. They're my
friends. And you're not."
65,000 defense points
Sent in by Kevin Trinh
To get more than 65,000 defense points you need the formulacall
"Defend". Use it to make it get to level 6 or 7, but 9 is the best.
Then use it on you, save your game before it worn off and reset
the game. Load the game you just played and wait for the "Defend"
worn off. Now go to see your stat and you'll see that you have more
than 65,000 defense power. If not unequip everything you have.
Enemies can barely hurt you now, but magic can still hurt you.
You can even do this with "Atlas" to make you kill enemies faster.
8 hit combo
Sent in by Kevin
To make the boy do 8 hit combo fomula, do this: Hit Select to
control the dog, then hit X and choose the formula you want to
use. Select the enemy you want to kill and press B, X, B, B, X,
B, B, X, B, B, X, B, B, X, B, B..... and keep doing it till you can't
do it anymore. Note: you have to do this fast to make him do it
8 times. You can even kill some boss with this trick too. The
maximum damage is 7992 HP.
Unlimited run
Sent in by DMoogle2@aol.com
Charge your pow meter until it is at level three then start running
with the attack button still down for unlimited run.
Unlimited ammo for your bazooka
Sent in by DMoogle2@aol.com
Go to the waterfall that you fall in, that is right beside Horace's
camp, point directly opposite of the waterfall then fire about five
thunder balls, so that you are over the hole, now fire thunder balls
so that you fly backwards out of the hole, then save your game
then reload it and see that you have unlimited ammo for your bazooka.
Warnings
Sent in by Corinne Chamney
A WARNING: If you sneak around a bit, you may find a way to escape
fighting the Verminator. DO NOT DO THIS. If you do, later on you will
find yourself in the Verminator's lair. The only way out is to reset.
ANOTHER WARNING: Be careful where you try to land with the Windwalker.
Only try to land in the designated areas. NEVER try to land in the
ocean. It was too quick for me to tell where, but if you try to land
in a certain unknown part of the ocean, you will find yourself in a
port city with only one thing missing: the Windwalker.
How to get across the Crustacia bridge
To get across the crustacia bridge use the dog to jump across the bridge
and then go up and take the elevator across After saving the robot guard
in metropolis go back down and talk to the guardbot by your rocket.
He gives you reflect.
How do you cross the broken bridge west of the ship in World 2, Antiqua?
To cross the broken bridge west of Crustacia, the ship town, you'll
need your dog. Go to the town of Nobilia north of the desert and
defeat Vigor in the Colosseum to get the dog back. Return to the
bridge, press Select to switch to the dog, and hold left to make the
dog jump across the gap. Voila!
How do you find your way through the Hall of Collosia
When you're in the Hall of Collosia, first locate and defeat the Mad
Monk in the top right section to obtain the Bronze Spear, then find
the old man who gives you the Fireball spell and saves your game.
Return to the main chamber of the hall and go up to the top of the
room. Equip the Bronze Spear and you'll automatically throw it up
across the gap to make a bridge appear. Cross the new bridge and
explore the upper section of the hall to find the Megataur. Defeat
the Megataur to receive the Diamond Eye. Throughout the hall, use the
Revealer formula to make bridges appear.
How do you reach Tiny in the Great Pyramid Extension?
To find Tiny in the Great Pyramid Extension, go up to the rock near
the entrance of the area and use the Levitate formula to place it on
the right switch. Place your main character on the left switch and
put the dog on the middle switch to open the second gate.
Player beware: This center gate in the Great Pyramid Extension can
only be opened one time. If you open the center gate and leave before
speaking to Tiny, you can't come back. Moral to the story: make
absolutely sure that you talk to Tiny before you leave!
Go up through the two middle gates to hear Tiny tell you that he
doesn't want to see you, then step into the teleporter in the
upper-left corner. When you reappear, step back into the teleporter
you came from. When you reappear again, step back into the same
teleporter you came from AGAIN. Continue this until you meet up with Tiny.
How do you go through World 4, Omnitopia?
Omnitopia's main district has several rooms that are connected by
hallways, and some of the hallways are blocked. To clear these
roadblocks, you must defeat the Sphere Bots in each area. To do this,
press Select to switch to the dog, then enter the oval door in the top
right corner of any room. (Face the door and press the B Button to
open it.) The dog will hover up to the same level as the Sphere Bots
so you can shoot them. Defeat all of the Sphere Bots to open the
blocked passages.
How do you get past the death plants in the Greenhouse?
To stop the evil plants from attacking you in the Greenhouse, go to
the Control Sector and activate the switch on the center computer to
turn off the lights in the Greenhouse. (Face the switch and press the
B Button to activate it.)
Special Items
Armor Polish
You can find the Armor Polish in the Marketplace in Nobilia. One of
the traders near the upper right corner will give it to you if you
give him the Silver Sheath and 75 jewels. The Armor Polish will
increase the boy's defense by 25-30 points.
Chocobo Egg
The Chocobo Egg is in the Ivor Tower. Go to the left side of town to
the alley, where a trader will give you the egg for 9 perfume bottles
and 9 beads. Be sure to get this before you defeat Mungola, as the
egg trader will disappear permanently after the battle. The Chocobo
Egg will increase your maximum hit points.
Diamond Eyes
You will get the Diamond Eyes at two different times during the game.
When you first get them in Gothica, one will be in the Great Pyramid
and the other in the Hall of Collosia. This first set of eyes will be
given to Horace.
The second set of Diamond Eyes are found after you have received the
Windwalker. Talk to Tiny the Barbarian inside the Great Pyramid
Extension to get them, then take them to Tinker in Tinker's Tower.
Energy Core
You will see the Energy Core will be in the town of Nobilia after you
defeat the boss, Aegis, but you won't actually retrieve it until later
in the game, in the second Chessboard Path. The Core will activate the
computer in the Junkyard.
Gauge
The Gauge can be found on a ledge at the top of the Volcano Path. You
must give the Gauge to Tinker in Tinker's Tower to help him complete
the Rocket.
Insect Incense
The Insect Incense is found in the Ivor Tower alley, where a trader
will give it to you in exchange for three Perfume Bottles and three
Beads. He may not offer to trade unless you talk to him several times
or already have the Staff of Life. The Insect Incense will help repel
mosquitos and spiders.
Jade Disk
To get the Jade Disk, go to the market in Nobilia. A lady at the
bottom left of the market will trade you the Jade Disk for 3 Chickens
and 3 Beads. The Jade Disk will increase the boy's hit percentage.
You can also trade it for the Centurion Cape.
Jaguar Ring
The Jaguar Ring is located in the Quicksand Field in Prehistoria. To
find it, drop into any of the quicksand whirlpools in the top left
corner of the field to appear at a cave in the upper right corner.
Walk up into the cave and buy something from the man inside, and he'll
give you the Jaguar Ring. Once you have the ring, hold the A Button
when walking to run. Using the ring wears down your power meter,
however, so you can't run for a very long time.
Moxa Stick
The Moxa Stick is located in the town of Nobilia. To get it, go to the
lower left area and a man will trade the Stick for two Chickens, a
Jeweled Scarab, and 12 jars of Spice. The Moxa Stick will increase the
effectiveness of healing formulas and healing items. You can also
trade it for Ruby Heart or Gloves of Ra in Nobilia. We think it's best
to keep the Moxa Stick.
Magic Gourd
The Magic Gourd is located in the town of Nobilia. After defeating
Vigor in the Colosseum, talk to one of the traders in the upper left
part of town until he offers to trade the Magic Gourd for the Chocobo
Egg. Believe it or not, we haven't found any use at all for the Magic
Gourd. It doesn't seem to do anything.
Mud Pepper
The Mud Pepper is one of the ingredients needed to use the Levitate
formula. The first one is found in Blimp's hut after defeating
Salabog, the water snake. Later, you'll find more Mud Peppers in the
Volcano Core and will be able to purchase them from Blimp's Cave.
Oracle Bone
The Oracle Bone is located in the Ivor Tower. A trader at the top will
give you the bone for a Golden Jackal and a Jeweled Scarab. Once you
defeat Mungola, this trader will move to the town of Ebon Keep along
with most of the other townspeople. The Oracle Bone may cause some
people to offer additional clues, and allow you to get the Force
Field and Stop formulas from the man under the second Chessboard Path.
Queen's Key
The Queen's Key is located in the Ivor Tower. Once you pass through
the Ivor Tower Sewer and talk to the Queen, go down to exit her room
and the boy will take the key from the dog's neck. The key
automatically opens all the doors on the right side of Ivor Tower
castle so you can clear out the items found there. It can also be
traded in one of the tower's rooms for Fire Power.
Ruby Heart
The Ruby Heart is located in the town of Nobilia. A trader near the
bottom left corner of town will give you the heart for either a Moxa
Stick or Tapestry, a Jeweled Scarab, and a Limestone Tablet. The heart
will decrease the enemy's hit percentage when the boy is low on hit points.
Silver Sheath
The Silver Sheath is located in the town of Nobilia. A trader near the
center of the marketplace will give it to you for the Sun Stone or
Golden Jackal, and 10 jars of Spice. The sheath will increase the
strength of your sword weapons. You may also trade it for the Armor Polish.
Staff of Life
The Staff of Life can be acquired from Horace after defeating Aegis.
You can also go to the alley on the far left side of Ivor Tower town
and give one of the traders 30 bags of Rice for it. The Staff of Life
increases your main character's defensive power, and it cannot be
traded for anything else.
Sun Stone
The Sun Stone is found in Nobilia. To get it, give one of the traders
a Limestone Tablet and five bags of Rice. The Sun Stone increases your
main character's endurance, and can be traded for the Silver Sheath.
Thug's Cloak
The Thug's Cloak is located in the towns of Ivor Tower and Ebon Keep.
To get one, give a trader eight Perfume bottles and six Beads. You can
also get one by talking to the Oglin in the Dark Forest, but you must
have saved him from the well in Ivor Tower South, or he won't give you
anything. The Thug's Cloak increases your main character's evasion
percentage, and can't be traded for anything else.
Wheel
You need to get the Wheel to help Tinker make the Rocket. Once you've
acquired the Windwalker, return to Bugmuck in Prehistoria and defeat
Coleoptera's Heart in the top room. Hit the cocoon that it leaves
behind to get the Wheel.
Wizard's Coin
The Wizard's Coin will be given to you by Oglin. If you've saved
Oglin from the well in Ivor Tower South and if you've gotten the
Thug's Cloak, find and talk to him near the lower right of the Dark
Forest to get the Wizard's Coin. The coin will increase the boy's
magic defense.
