| ==FAQ==
| |
| ;How do I upgrade my character's class?
| |
| :You'll need the Rat's Tale which you can find in the Citadel of Trials. Once you acquire it from the chest, you have to take it to Bahamut's Cave in the Cardia Islands. If you don't know where these islands are, they're the group of islands between the North Eastern and North Western continents.
| |
| ;Why can't I find some of the monsters listed in the bestiary?
| |
| :Some of the monsters are rarer than others. I'll eventually get around to listing those particular enemies, but for now, you should check one of the other guides for information on them.
| |
| ;Where's the best place to level up?
| |
| :The easiest way to level up is to battle the Evil Eye in the Ice Cave. It doesn't have much HP, it gives lots of experience, it appears on a spiked square, and you can kill it easily. Kill it over and over again and you'll get lots of experience for the time you put into it.
| |
| ;Why don't you list the locations of the enemies in the Bestiary?
| |
| :Because I'm lazy right now but I'll eventually get around to it. Some of the other FFO guides have that information.

| ===Gameplay===
| |
| ====Leveling Basics====
| |
| Levelling in this game isn't as straightforward as in the more mainstream FF games. There is no EXP in this game but when you fight enemies and satisfy any of the conditions below, you will gain points in that stat.
| |
| | |
| * Strength is raised by attacking physically
| |
| * Endurance is raised by losing HP by taking damage in combat
| |
| * Spirit is raised by using white magic
| |
| * Intelligence is raised by using black magic
| |
| * Magic is raised by casting spells, or losing MP
| |
| * Accuracy is raised by attacking with weapons
| |
| * Evasion is raised by being a target of a physical attack
| |
| * Agility is raised by being a target of a physical attack
| |
| * Magic Defense is raised by being the target of spells and special abilities
| |
|
| |
| When a stat increases several times, another stat will decrease.
| |
| | |
| * When Strength increases, Intelligence decreases
| |
| * When Intelligence increases, Endurance decreases
| |
| * When Spirit increases, Strength decreases
| |
| | |
| ====Abusing the Leveling System====
| |
| Ok, you've played the game for awhile and you've probably decided that it's pretty tough to raise your stats quick enough to not get bored. There ARE ways to raise your stats quicker, a few of them unintentional I would think, and others that are legitimate. If you're a straight-laced by-the-book type of person you'll probably want to ignore this part.
| |
| | |
| ;Swap Spell: Here's a great spell and it's available early in the game. Use it on a weak enemy and defeat it. You'll gain quite a bit.
| |
| | |
| ;Attacking Party Members: An unintentional but quick and dirty way to raise certain stats. This will raise the beaten up character's HP. Simply attack your other party members until they are in critical. You do this with magic as well to raise stats associated with this as well but there's an easier way.
| |
| | |
| ;Select/Cancel: Another unintentional cheat but excellent for raising your weapon level. Select a target, confirm, and then cancel when the next character's turn comes around. You can also do this for magic.
| |
| | |
| ====Magic Basics====
| |
| ;Discard: Spells that cannot be discarded are darkened in the menu.
| |
| | |
| ;Use: Use the directional buttons to select a caster, a spell, and a target if applicable. Press the X Button to confirm each selection. Note that not all spells can be used via the Magic menu.
| |
| | |
| ;Drop: If you want to drop a spell, select it with the directional buttons and press the X Button, then select the "Discard" command and press the X Button to confirm.
| |
| | |
| ;Learning Magic: You can purchase spell scrolls from magic shops or find them in treasure chests. Use them in the "Items" menu to learn magic spells. Every character can learn up to sixteen spells at a time. If their spells slots are full and they want to learn another spell, they must first drop a spell via the "Discard" command.
