There are a couple of items (types of items really) that I have no idea what to do with. There are these bags of things. Different bags, but one is like copper shards or something. Then there are these acorn looking things that seem to be even less useful. I can't use them, so do I just sell them or what? If anyone knows, please reply.

Well... the explanation on the item seems to be generic... when I played, I sent items that would mostly apply to the occupation of my family... so, as for blacksmiths, perhaps you're better out sending things like iron and stuff... you'll make them happy that way and they might make you weapons with the items given...

hope that helps.
Bloodworth: the little bags are *all* used for crafting in one way or another, if your still using the japanese version of the game, ic ould see how that would be confusing, considering they get as random as "needle" or "ancient potion"
the little nut things are seeds, if you give htem to your family, at the start of the next year talk to a family member and they will ilterally shower the ground with whatever the seeds grew into.. same thing if you buy your family a cow (possible in the fields of fum), loads of milk will pop out of someone the next year.

The mount is the end of the game there are three bosses in a row you will have to fight to win. The first is the metor parasite where you are to use magic that is opisite to the on the tentcles are using. (You have to atack the tenticles.)
The next is Rhem and I haven't got through him yet.
Post by: Syl on February 19, 2004, 01:09:26 AM
i don't see any end to the years at all, but im kinda dissapointed the character models didn't change to reflect that they should have grown up in the past 12 years or so.
no matter, at least that selkie chick is no longer only 5 O_o
Post by: Bloodworth on February 19, 2004, 05:32:26 AM
The trick with all three bosses is just a matter of artful dodging, so I can't really explain my techniques perfectly. Also note that since I did single-player, trying to pull off some of this as a group might not be so easy.
I will say though that with the first boss I'd always take out one of the sunflowers before attacking. It's second form, I would keep moving until it attacked, and then I'd counterattack. It's third form, I did practically the same thing, but I kept to the far left of the screen.
On the second boss, I take out only the larger of the regular enemies, and then I taunt the second one into attacking so that it stops momentarily and I can attack the boss. I alternate between dodging the little punk, going in for a couple hits, and then backing out before the boss shoves his belly in my face.
On the third, I keep moving and avoiding its attacks until I get a chance to cast cure and recover the spells from the floating family members. Then since the spells are unnamed (at least they were only marked "???" in the Japanese version) once I gathered a few, I would find shots to try them out on the boss until I ran across the shield. Since the shield protects you entirely, you can whack at the bottom portion with your weapons, saving your big spells for when the top portion comes down for a good beating.

Seriously Bloodworth, you could have at least answered my question, and then closed the topic. Where's the love in that man. 
By your comments in the first post, you obviously KNEW you shouldn't have posted it there, and now you want to curse at me for enforcing the rules. This is your last warning. If you show blatant disregard for the rules or mods again, you can say goodbye. -Bloodworth
Anyway, I shall try again.
Where is the fifth element, and how do you get it?
Also, is there a way to progress through the green temple ( I forget it's proper name ) in single player mode. I can't seem to get through the gates. Please help.
Post by: FOX McLOUD on February 23, 2004, 05:59:57 AM
I hope you and your colleagues will forgive my error.
Also, I am sorry for cursing, but I did it more to be funny than to harm you.
I appologize with full rermorse.
Post by: Bloodworth on February 23, 2004, 04:05:53 PM
The fifth element is in Lynari Desert. I covered it a bit in my review, but basically you wander around the big section of desert casting various spells on rocks, cacti, and the like.
Post by: FOX McLOUD on February 24, 2004, 05:26:05 AM
**laughs till he ctries**
Just kidding Bloodsworth, you now we all love you.
But seriously, I kind of suspected as much about the desert, but every time I go their it doesn't work. I now have the full poem, so I should be able to find and do everything, but it just won't work. I have done the first thing, where you use thunder on the cactus, but for things like the three nearby stones "three stones will feel the winters kiss" and use blizzard on the stones, nothing changes. When I used thunder on the cactus it changed camera views like it went to a cutsene, thus making me think that I had done it right. I now know where, and how in general to find the fifth element, but I just can't seem to do the wright thing. What am I doing wrong? Please help!
Also, do you speak good enough Jappanese to understand the imported version, or have you now gone out and bought the new American version. Plus, one more question, does this site actually pay you guys? I mean you all do such great work, but does this site bring in enough money from advertisements to stay afloat? Inquiring minds won't to know.
Post by: Bloodworth on February 24, 2004, 05:34:07 AM
I don't have the US version yet. I used my Japanese skills somewhat, as well as a few import guides from GameFAQs etc.
The site does bring in enough to support itself, but it does not bring in enough for us to pay anybody, including senior staff.
Post by: FOX McLOUD on February 24, 2004, 05:38:27 AM
But, can you or someone else please list in exact order, how to get the fifth element.
Sorry, but I am pretty incompotent in the desert stage.

It's the love for Nintendo that drives them to have a site like this and keep it going, or so I think lol. Maybe Bloodworth thinks different?...

#1 - Cast "thunder" on the biggest of the 2 cactai.
#2 - Cast "gravity" on the tent.
#3 - Cast "fire" on the rock sticking out on a cliff.
#4 - Cast "blizzard" on the three rocks that are in a triangle, starting with the smallest.
#5 - Cast "holy" on the flower that will appear after you've done the previous 4.(if you can't find it, go to where you begin the level, then walk up sticking to the left side and you will come to it)
Yup, hope that fixes your problems lol. On another note, after you get it, there's no need to change your chalice to anything else as the holy chalice will be able to take you through any miastream

MY question is, how do the combining of spells and physical attacks work exactly?
my friends and I are on our third year and we can't seem to create any of the advanced stuff 'cept on accident. For instance, we can create fira spells, but how firaga spells work I dont know. And what are the flashing dots underneath the spell name about?

I really don't know either, but, my bet is..*major spoilage*
Earlier in the game, it mentioned how monsters were never born, they just appeared into thin air somewhere. I'm betting that city is where the monsters are "created" (through whatever means) and then once they are done being "Created" theyre spread throughout the world.

Come on Bloodsworth. Get to cracken on those how to learn Japenese text books.
Post by: Djunknown on March 08, 2004, 03:39:52 PM
Also I have a few Q's
1. Blizzara vs Icestrike: Which one is more effective?(Ice strike is done by putting a weapon in your command list in single player, and fusing it with Blizzard. You can make it Boltstrike, Firestrike with the corrosponding element. ) How does the damage equate? Is it Weapon Damage+Element or simply a focus attack with an elemental alignment?
2. Small Spoiler! When playing multi-player and are reaching the last dungeon, does the HP of the final bosses go up? I've finally reached this area and I have some....small difficulties to say the least with Raem. Just wondering on the off chance I can get a bud to help out...
That's all I got for now.
Post by: Jale on March 10, 2004, 07:51:58 AM
1) Can you use the characters from your multiplayer game in the single player game?
2) Can people join the game at any time?
3) Does the Link Cable supply power to the GBA?
Post by: Bloodworth on March 10, 2004, 08:27:19 PM
2) As long as you aren't currently in a dungeon
3) No, that's what batteries are for. Get some good rechargeables if you have an old GBA.
