Gain Levels Quickly in
Chapter 2
In the battle of the castle ruins in Chapter two (before the fight with Magnus
and after the ambush at the swamp), there will be two healing circles and two
elevators. First, stock everyone up with Mage Oil before going into the battle.
When you enter the fight, kill all the monsters in the level, but don't go
anywhere near the temple!
Instead, have Sara stand on one of the circles
and begin casting "Mystic Shield" on herself over and over. It takes
six casts to raise one level. Raise her to level 49 (easier said then done!),
then have Huxley stand on the circle beside Sara and cast Mystic Shield on her.
He will jump up to level 46 or so. Do it a few times more to get to level 49. As
for the people who can't cast it, have them use the Mage Oils, it works just as
well.
Important: Do NOT do this trick with Ash, or
you will encounter problems later on in the game!
Vandalier
To have Ash become Vandalier, you must find six keys. These will transport you
to a mystic battle field. To be transported, equip Ash with a key. Enter the
Dojo then leave, you will be asked if you want to be transformed, choose it. You
must get the prisms in the treasure chests to become Vandalier.
Nova Key:
After killing the Death Ant in the dunes, talk to the woman in the tavern and
she will give you the Nova Key.
Earth Key:
Talk to the young man in the tavern at Yuzu. He tells you that he dropped a
weird fruit in a plus sign bog. Pick it up and give it to him. You will then receive
the Earth Key.
Mana Key:
At the Prison Fortress, search the ground neat the gate. You will see a small
crater, that is where the Mana Key is.
Chaos Key:
To get the Chaos Key, you need three items they are the Macroman, Tarot Card,
and the Ramen. The Macroman is found in the NW corner of Ygdra Canaon. The Tarot
Card is found at Basil Gate in the SE corner, there is an X made of grass. The
Ramen is in the grate on the front car on The Magical Train. Go to Kerachi
Village, go to the tavern and talk to the collector.
Logos Key:
After saving Leena in the Tsukue Plains, return to Frontier Village. Talk to the
old man in the Tavern. You will learn that the is something in the center of the
lava pond. Go to Smoking Bones Cave, search the center near the Salamander with
a flying character. That is where the Logos Key is.
Heaven Key:
With all five keys, talk to the weird man in Glasgow City. He will give you the
Heaven Key.
With all of the prisms, go to the Dojo, the
Dojo Master will advance Ash to the class of Vandalier. Now you can see the true
ending.
Tip: Do not go to the mystic battlefields right away. Let your team level up and have more people. This will make the battles easier.
Hints
Quick Exp. for Healers:
When in battle fields with restoration circles (act 2, 3, etc.), place your
healers on the circles, and make them repeatedly cast Mystic Shield/Bless Weapon
and they'll get 15-20 experience each.
To get Ash to the class of VANDALIER you must get
the Torah key in every Act. (one per Act.) then once you have it go to the dojo.
Try to leave and you will be asked if you want to transform. Select Transform
and you will be transported to a special level get the Prism in the chest then
kill all of the enemies. Collect all six prisms and you can become a Vandalier.

If he is not needed place your Magus in a Healing Circle. Have him cast Mystic
Shield or Bless Weapon over and over.
