IMPORTANT NOTE ON E-MAILS
----------------------------
Well, I am around 90% done with the FAQ so the future updates will be
dependable on how much time I have to spare as I getting busier with
my "national obligation". E-mails may be answered in 2 weeks time as
I will be away from my computer most of the time. If you need any help,
feel free to consult anyone of the authors for this game in GameFAQs.
To get help within the fastest time, get help from GameFAQs' message
board. Generally, I supposed this FAQ could help you (the reader) in
almost all areas except for:-
1) Fishing using Lures
2) Monsters Transformation process
3) Ridepod parts - statistics for the 40 weapons
4) Strategy for Undead monsters (I have messed up my note on those
skeletons ^_^: a personal blunder)
I am not sure when I will be doing a v1.6 update. But I am pretty sure
it is going to take a long time as my free time is getting lesser.
Hope you readers could understand. I will be glad if someone could
help me with the above 3 points...

locations such as Station, Palm Brinks (town), Undergound Channel, etc.
If you use this while in dungeons, money will be deducted if there are

ix) Saving
``````````````````````````
Like traditional RPGs, you will find save points located in towns. Save
Points are indicated by red shields surrounded by red rings. Just hit
X when Max/Monica is near the save point. You can save your game into
the desired memory card slot. You can hit Triangle to save your game
while viewing the dungeon listing screen.
x) Getting Items/Open Chests
````````````````````````````````````
The idea is similar to Final Fantasy IX. You will find a ! icon
appearing on top of your active character's head. Hit X to explore the
item. Chests position are not fixed in dungeons or cities. They appear
randomnly. Minature chests contains power-up items such as Fruit of
Eden (increases max HP), Potato Pie (increases Max's defence) and
Witch's Parifact (increases Monica's defence). These items appears
after you completed a story event (for Chapter 1) and as for subsequent
chapters, you need to complete the Georama Conditions.
You can also get items from destroying crates/rocks/vases found in
dungeons. This can be done by using R1 + X to lift up the item and X
again to throw the item.
------------- II ---------------
D u n g e o n B a s i c s
--------------------------------
The objective of clearing dungeons is to get an item called "Gate Key",
which appears differently for different dungeons. The Gate Key is held
by one of the monsters in the area. Defeat it and you will able to
obtain it. Next, you need to locate the exit (indicated by a large
yellow dot) and use the key (activate the item sub-menu with Square
button and select the item).
The dungeon maps are randomnly generated. The location of the exit is
random and even the chests are random. Heck, almost everything is
random except for the type of monsters appearing in the area.
i) Attacking
`````````````````````````````````````
Dark Cloud 2 battle system is unique as compared to traditional RPGs.
It has some resemblance with Kingdom Hearts' battle system. You can
control your character to move freely on the battlefield and access
the menu at the same time.
Max starts with his Battle Wrench, a short range weapon. He will get
his projectile weapon - a gun-type weapon from Donny after you have
completed Prelude. Monica starts with the sword as you have seen her
taking it at the Prelude. Her long-range weapon is using magic. All
these commands can be ONLY used while in Dungeons.
>> Combo Hit
This can be done with the character's right-hand weapon i.e. the short
range weapon. You can do combo strikes by hit the X button repeatedly
as your character attacks the enemy. The chain lasts for a maximum of
5 hits. You will end the last hit with a knock-down attack. The combo
hit differs depends on the weapon that your character is using. The
damage dealt will progressively increase with the number of hits.
>> Charged Attack
To do a charged attack, you just need to hold down the X button and
release it for your character to release a heavy hit. You can even hit
aerial targets surrounding your character.
>> Final Blow
Lock on the target and tap the left analog stick towards the target and
hit X. The character will deal a jumping leap with a swing of the
weapon, dealing heavy damage.
>> Backflip
Lock on the target and tap the left analog stick away the target and hit
X. Your character will do a flying backflip that separates him/her away
from the target. Please note while in mid-air your character is
vulunerable to all sorts of attacks.
* Magic-Absorb Blade (Monica ONLY)
Magic-Absorb Blade is a skill that allows you to absorb the energy of
elemental attacks, such as Fire, while guarding. When you swing your
sword with X button, it fires back as magic. You can continuously
charge up energy of 1 elemental type.
If you absorb a different element type, Monica lose the magic that she
stocked up. For example if you stock up 3 fire spells from an enemy,
you absorbs a chill spell, you will lose all your previous fire spells
that you have stocked earlier.
The amount of elemental energy you can absorb depends on the durability
of your equipped weapon. The weapon's durability will improve as Monica
levels up and you will find more slots appearing on her weapon icon.
(The slots are indicated by white dots)
To release absorbed elemental energy in the form of magic, press L1
while guarding with R1.
* Throw (close-ranged only, Max/Monica only)
You can grab objects and hurl them at targets. This can be done by
holding R1 and hit X to grab the object. Hit X again to throw the
object. You can even throw enemies (of course, not for monster that are
over-sized). Throw objects at enemies may cost enemies to get stunned,
where you can hurl all your attacks on the unguarded enemy!
ii) Restore attributes - HP/Fuel/WPN
`````````````````````````````````````````
You can activate the main menu while in dungeons. You can use items
from item holders by toggle the cursor on the item with D-Pad and
Square button to use the item. There are 3 important statistic
attribute- Hit Points, Fuel, Weapon Points
>> Hit Points (HP)
To restore hit points, you must give your character healing items such
as Bread, Mellow Banana, Pointy Chestnut, etc. Some items will
increase Max or Monica's thrist, thus you need to drink Tasty Water,
etc.
As the characters do not level up in this game, you can only increase
Max/Monica's HP by giving him/her the Fruit of Eden, which is
extremely rare and hard to get. You can also increase defences by
giving Max a Potato Pie and giving Monica a Witch's Parfait.
Once a character is KO'd in a dungeon, you will be bought to the
character selection screen to select a fightable character. Fallen
characters will be revived back to full health upon exiting the
dungeon. You can revived a fallen character by using a Ressurrection
Powder, which is only available in dungeons for Chapter 7 onwards or
via Spheda.
>> Fuel
This applies to Ridepod only. Ridepod's HP is indicated by fuel gauge.
You can refuel his energy source (i.e. fuel gauge) by using a Ridepod
Fuel. The Ridepod Fuel can be obtained from treasure chests or crates
in dungeons. You can also visit Cedric, who is located at the workshop
(prior to Chapter 1) or locomotive (Sindain, Chapter 2). You can also
use his character ability while having him in your party. You can buy
Ridepod Fuel from Morton's Sundries for 2000 Glidas from Chapter 5
onwards. You can upgrade Ridepod's Energy Pack upon more discoveries
through the Make Menu.
>> WPN Points
WPN points actually represents the lifeblood of your weapons. Once it
reaches 0, the weapon will deal zero damage or No Effect, rendering it
becoming useless. You can however restore the power by using Repair
Powder items. Repair Powder restores Melee weapons for Max, Monica &
Ridepod. Gun Repair Powder fixes range weapons for Max and Ring Repair
Powder fixes range weapons for Monica. WPN points will decrease as you
uses the weapon. The deteoriation rate will decrease if you improve
the weapon's durability. You can also fix weapons via Cedric's NPC aid.
iii) Reading Dungeon Map Indicators

you face a chest that cannot be open, you need to use a Treasure
Chest Key, which is a rare item obtained from dungeons. You can also
get a lucky draw of 2 boxes - Happy Clown Present. You also have
Donny to open up the locked chests if he is the support character.

|----------------|-----------------------------------------------------|
|For the seals listed above |
|To break the above seals, defeat all enemies in that dungeon first |
|with the seal ON. The seal will be broken when you play that dungeon |
|for the next time. |
|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
MEDAL CONDITION
Medals are hard to collect in my opinion. You need to finish the stage
by completing the dungeon within the stated conditions. Medals earned
will be kept in the Medal Holder. Medals does not indicate you are a
great Dark Cloud 2 player but also allows you to obtain special clothing
late in the game. The medals can be exchanged with Mayor Need (provided
you have recruited the Mayor)
>> Time Limit to Attack and defeat all enemies: XX:XX
Defeat all the enemies in the dungeon within the XX:XX time limit. E.g.
if XX:XX is 02:00, you need to clear the stage with all enemies killed
in 2 minutes time! You will learnt whether you made it after all
monsters have been killed. Please note that Mimics (hidden in chest) are
also included!
>> Spheda
(This will be marked as ??? in dungeons prior to Chapter 3)
After you have removed the time distortion portal at Barga's Valley in
Chapter 3, you will be able to play a game of Spheda or Sphere Golfing.
If you get rid of the time distortion portal using the Sphere, you will
get good treasures such as gems, level-up powder, stamina potions in
addition to getting a medal. You will be able to start playing Spheeda
towards the end of Chapter 3. Win on same dungeon in the next few
tries, nab you lesser items...
>> Fishing
(This will be marked as ???? in dungeons prior to getting the Fishing
Rod in Chapter 2)
After you've killed off all of the enemies, catch a fish on that floor
with a length greater than the length the floor statistic screen
specifies. For details about fishing, please refer to Fishing Basics
(section 4 of the FAQ). To fish, you need to located water filled
areas.
>> Attack and Attack and defeat all enemies without HEALING
You must not use any healing items on any of 4 playable characters.
NPC support healing is also considered invalid. HP gained from Drain
or Slow Heal enfused weapons is considered legal...
>> Attack and Attack and defeat all enemies using only ITEMS.
You should not use any weapons such as melee/ranged-types and only
items for attacking. Please note that this also includes Ridepod. You
can however use objects that can grab and throw as a weapon. Get a lot
of "Improved Bombs", bombs made from Erik (NPC), which could set for
large amount of cash or do massive damage.
>> Attack and defeat all enemies using MAX'S RIGHT-HAND WEAPON
MAX'S GUN
MONICA'S SWORD
MONICA'S MAGIC
RIDEPOD
MONSTER TRANSFORMATION
This is a hard condition to fulfil. When it says using a specific
weapon, you must be using that weapon to attack EVERYTIME. Every hit
must used from that attack. Although only the last hit gains experience
points for the weapon, you must be using only specific weapons. You are
not allow to use items to assist you in attacking.
GEORAMA MATERIALS
Sometime in Chapter 2, with the aid of the Firbits from Sindain, Max
will be able to built objects of the past and place in the current
place via Georama system. You can get supplies for fixing up from
chests in the dungeon. Just hit Triangle button to view Georama
listing after you have view the dungeon status condition. The
appearance of these materials are random and you can get them by
defeating monsters there or opening chests in that dungeon.
GEOSTONE
The Geostone contains past data about that particular place and allows
you to build new objects such as new type of buildings, pier, etc.
These egg-shaped mystical rocks will available upon saving the Firbits
from the "Holy One's curse" at Great Fish Swamp. The Geostone is
essential for Georama as it helps you to unlock conditions and build
new objects.
vi) Special Dungeon Items
`````````````````````````````````````````
Within the dungeon, you can find special dungeon-specific items used in
the dungeon. They can be "keys" to the exit, map, keys to access other
areas within the dungeon, etc.
"Keys" - Key Handle, Channel Key, Slash Branch, Fairy Saw, etc.
These allows you to access to newer/locked dungeons or locked areas
within the dungeon. Keys for locked areas are found in treasure chests
while keys for the dungeon exit can only be obtained by defeating one
of the enemies there. The enemy holding the key is random by the way...
Magic Crystal
It allows you to gain access to all the "dots" for the radar. It show
all enemies (in form of dots) even if you haven't uncover all the maps.
To find out what the dots represent, please refer to the part iii of
Section 2: Dungeon Basics for more details.
Map
It show you the walkways for the dungeon. Simple?
Star Key
You will get this to use for Star Exits from Chapter 6 onwards. You
will allow you to exit through the Star Exits for dungeons in Rainbow
Butterfly Wood, Starlight Canyon, Ocean's Roar Cave and Mount Gundor.
vii) Exits
``````````````````````````````````````````````
Late in the game (Chapter 2 onwards), you will find exits with Sun,
Moon or Star icons near the exit. The way to get through the exit is
the same as the normal gate except there are additional conditions:-
Sun - You can only exit via the gate during daytime
Moon - You can only exit via the gate during nighttime for Chapter 3.
For Chapter 4 onwards, time is not important to exit.
Star - You need to use the Star Key obtained in Chapter 6.
viii) Rage Counters
```````````````````````````````````````````````
If you choose to lock-on a target enemy, you will find the enemy's
status bar along with a few red orbs on top of it. These represents the
Rage Counter. As you attack the enemy, the orbs will be removed one by
one. Once all rage counters have been removed, the enemy will turn
glowing yellow. Its attack will deal twice as much as normal (except
for special attacks monsters such as Joker). King Mimics has only 3
rage counters. Max can get "Pumped-Up" status by using a Stamina Drink,
obtained via playing Spheda, invention or found in dungeons (Chapter 7
onwards).
------------------------------------------------------------------------
M o n s t e r B a d g e s
------------------------------------------------------------------------
i) Monster Transformation (Monica ONLY)
``````````````````````````````````````````````
In Chapter 2, upon reviving the Great Elder Jurak in Sindain, Max and
Monica will receives the Monster Badge item, which allows you to store
badges for Monica to perform Monster Transformation. The 1st badge
can be obtained via completing Georama Conditions.
Upon completing Geroma Conditions for Tailor Shop in Chapter 2, you
can purchase the first monster badge from the Tailor Shop in the
future. Once you have the badges, you will be able to transform Monica
into an enemy monster!
>> Attacks, Status, Hit Points, etc
The monster transformation comes with the monster's skill which can
be used by hit X (melee) or Square (range). The monster's HP is the
equivalent of Monica. Attack and Defense can be improved by gaining
levels. Ability points earned from battles can help to increase the
level.
ii) Badges Listing
``````````````````````````````````````````````
There are a total of 12 badges that Monica could use. To transform
into a specific monster, you need to use that particular badge:-
You can get information on retrieve monsters the same method as Max
does for inventions. You just need to switch the character as Monica
instead. You can also get these clues by transform into that monster
and talk to another monster of the same class type for more valuable
information.

----------------
Well, it is true that you can get these badges by using it on different
enemies:-
Ram - Give a Gift Capsule of 3 Premium Chicken (Beast)
Goyone - Give a Gift Capsule of 3 Evy (Aquatic)
iii) Monsters Stats
``````````````````````````````````````````````
The stats below represents the monster's initial stats and their
attack abilities. Upon gaining a certain left, the monsters level up
and it can be transformed into a stronger monster. The stats below are
the maximum stats that you can achieve for that monster class.
Monsters can evolved up to the maximum of 4 times - lv 26, lv 51, lv
76. You can build up the monster up to level 99 at most.
iv) Status Bar regarding Monster
``````````````````````````````````````````````
It takes 100 experience points for the monster to gain to the next
level. The monster's initials are extremely weak for the moment that
you get them. My advice is to kill the enemies with Monica and
switch to the Monster. Monica can transform for short period of time
indicated by the red status bar.
Monster class can be further upgraded when the monster reaches a
certain level and there are open paths. For example, Sewer Rat can
transform into either Ram or Beach Rat after gaining a certain level.
If you reach the ultimate class for Sewer Rat (Beast) - Death Mouse,
you can be awarded with bonuses such as gems & special items.

R i d e p o d B a s i c s

C a m e r a B a s i c s
---------------------------------
i) Camera and The Album
`````````````````````````````````````````
Surprisingly, the camera is one of the most important objects in the
game. It allows you to capture nifty photos for your album and also use
the photos as a basis for Make menu where Maximillian can create new
inventions based on 3 photographs.
The camera will be given to you mid-way in Chapter 1 after Cedric has
requested Max to make a Energy Pack for his new mechanic buddy, Ridepod.
In Chapter 2, Max is able to get the Album book from his bedroom in
Palm Brinks. The Album allows you to store 50 photos instead. You can
store a maximum of 80 photos. The 50 photos require you to save on
another file for an additional 409KB on your memory card.
ii) Using the Camera
````````````````````````````````````````
First of all, the camera needed to be equip on one of the item slot.
You can take pictures while even in dungeons or towns. For towns, just
hit Square to activate Camera Mode. While in dungeons, make the Camera
is highlighted while it is equiped on the item slot, hit Square to
enter camera mode. If other 2 items is highlighted instead, you will
end up using that item.
>> Camera Controls during Camera Mode
Button What it does?
```````` ````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Square Capture the shot. You can capture a maximum of 30 shots
L Analog Move camera view
Triangle Keep camera view still/ view the Camera Album menu
Circle Exit Camera view mode
R Analog Up (Zoom In) / Down (Zoom Out)
iii) Transferring Photo Shots to Ideas Book
```````````````````````````````````````````````````
As there is a limited capacity of photos that you can took with your
camera (i.e. 30 photos), you need to store them in the Ideas Album,
which accessible automatically from Camera Mode. You can delete useless
or transfer ideal photos into your album. Photos can be used idea
generation are marked yellow light bulbs whereas Scoop Photos are
marked with red object on top of the yellow light bulb. There is an
arrow icon under the Photo Album book where you can transfer the photo
into the Ideas Book. You can access the inventory directly from the
Album. However, there will be no thumbnails...
iv) Inside Scoop Memo
`````````````````````````````````````````
The Inside Scoop Memo will be given to you once you have gotten the
camera from Cedric in Chapter 1. It will contain the listing of all
Scoops (rare photo shots). As these photos are rare, this means some
of them can only be be obtained once. Thus, never forget to equip the
camera for Boss fights. That is the only time that you can get a Scoop
photo. Scoop photos location will be given to you by Donny based on the
number of scoops that you have obtained or as time lapse.
>> Why collect Scoops?
There is a reason why to collect Scoops - you can get *rare* items
from Donny. Remember the guy who rescue Max at the Prelude chapter? He
can be recruit as NPC (refer to Support Character Recruitment for
details) and he will be providing links for new scoops. He will be
awarding Max with more points for the Scoop Photos.
>> Scoop Photos Listing
Scoop Photo refers to rare photo shots taken in the game. These photos
acquired to have some difficulty such as flashing your camera in the
midst of a battle in dungeons even during boss fights. Most of scoops
for boss fight are rare. Once you miss it, most of the time is that
you will NEVER be able to get a second chance on taking it.
To take these scoops, make sure the toggle highlight falls on the
camera under Max's item holder. Note that you must be using Max to
take the scoop. For certain bosses which would be better to use
Ridepod, just use Max for the photo scoop and depress the R3 button to
switch to Ridepod for the kill!

Memo: Get a shot of Baron Balloon being flipped over by a Vanguard
during a Trample Attack!
Notes: N/A
Comments:
Get this scoop when Max's defense is over 30. First of all, proceed
near the Vanguard and attack with your weapon (or Spheda Club). The
enemy will do either 1 of the 2 attacks - attack with both arms or
arms planted on the ground and flip. If scenario 2 happens, quickly
switch to camera mode and take a photo of the Baron (which is riding

a jump from mid-air. Take a photo while the Moler is in mid-air.

Memo: Right when Gyumo's screaming. Maybe, it's trying to

`````````````````````````````````````````
Once your photography level has levelled up, talk to Donny and he will
give you new scoop hints along with a prize. You will be brought to the
item shopping menu where he will sell you these items for 0 Gilda.
Scoop Photos are worth 5 pts each, while Normal Photos are worth 2 pts
each. Useless Photos (no light bulbs) nab you zero points. Besides
earning points, Normal & Scoop photos can be used for inventions.
-- Prizes --
Level 1 - 0 pts - Nothing
Level 2 - 100 pts - Diamond
Level 3 - 200 pts - Explorer's Hat (Clothing for Max)
Level 4 - 300 pts - Bandit Coin

Level 6 - 500 pts - Explorer's Outfit (Clothing for Max)
Level 7 - 600 pts - Moon Badge (Transformation bonus for Monica)
Level 8 - 700 pts - Sun Badge (Transformation bonus for Monica)
vi) Inventions & Ideas Book
`````````````````````````````````````````
To create an invention card, you need to get 3 photos and link them up
into a brand new idea under the "Make" Menu. First select the "Make"
Menu and choose 3 photos from your camera, Album or ideas book with
X or Triangle button. Once you are done with 3 photos, hit Square. The
screen will switch to an idea screen where Max trying to generate on
the combination. If it is correct, you will have made a new invention.
If you failed, a loud depressing sound will be played...
>> Ideas Searching
Although it seem very simple by joining 3 ideas together to form a new
invention. It is still hard as it requires a lot of luck. There are
over 1000+ combinations and only a few will works. Fortunately, you can
get ideas by searching for them in books scattered around the towns and
places.
On the world of Dark Cloud 2, you can get ideas from stacks of books
present in bookshelves or houses. There will be a red exclaimation mark
appear on Max's head when you are standing near the books. Hit X and
you will be given the ideas.
All invention combinations will be listed under the bestiary.
vii) Normal Photos Listing
`````````````````````````````````````````
Surprisingly, some of the photos becomes rare as you progress into the
story. For example, the Blackstone One (the locomotive that Max &
Company uses) will be gone when you get the Ixion. However, it will be
back in Chapter 8.
These photos are worth 2 points each. By having only the scoops only,
it is insufficient to get 700 points. Most of the photos can be found
at the start of the game as most of them can be found in Palm Brinks.
Some objects marked with:- (*)- Georama Items or (`)- Missable
Notes:
Train Station refers to the one at Palm Brinks. If the photo can be
taken from elsewhere, I state the station's name.

viii) Usefulness of the Photo Album Book
```````````````````````````````````````````````````
This can be a life saver if you have missed any scoop photos. The album
can be access from different save files! That means if you miss a scoop,
you can get it back via the Album (provided that rare scoop is stored
inside the Album). However the downside is that you will need to have at
least 409 KB of extra memory space. Some of the photos can only be used
for inventions (such as Zelmite Found photo) provided that you have the
photo saved in the album.
---------------------- IV -----------------------
F i s h i n g & S p h e d a B a s i c s
-------------------------------------------------
This section will tell you about the game's 2 main mini-game - Fishing
and Spheda. Fishing is playable upon meeting with the Firbit at Great
Fish Swamp in Chapter 2 while Spheda is playable upon restoring the
time distortion at Barga's Valley in Chapter 3. Besides playing them
to earn badges, you can get attractive prizes and rewards for your
effects.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part 1: Fishing Basics
------------------------------------------------------------------------
i) Getting the Fishing Rod
`````````````````````````````````````````
Fishing activities begin from Chapter 2 onwards. First of all, you
need talk to Firbit (Norm) sitting on tree stump fishing at Great Fish
Swamp. He will provide you with the fishing rod and a bait, Mimi. You
can only fish with Max, by the way.
ii) Starting to fish...
`````````````````````````````````````````
To start fishing, you need to have it equipped on the character's right
arm and a bait on the items lot underneath the fishing rod icon. Most
of the food items except for crystals/ gems/ materials can be used as
bait. To equip a bait, do the same that you did to equip an item on the
item holders.
Once you have equip the fishing rod, you will find your character
carrying it as he is walking. First of all, you need to find a spot for
fishing. You need to locate watery areas. Stand at the edge of a pool
or pond to cast your reel. Hit X and you find a bait icon on the pool.
This indicates where you want to drop your line. You move the position
by using the left analog stick.
Button What it does?
```````` ````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Square Reel the line fast
X Reel the line slowly
L Analog Pull up the line when a fish is bitting the bait
Circle Exit the Fishing Mode
R2 Top view mode of the fishing area
L1/R1 Rotate camera mode
O Position camera in front of Max.
iii) Fishing Training Tip
`````````````````````````````````````````
First of all, make sure the analog vibration setting is set on before
you start fishing. The controller will vibrate and eventually a red
! will appear on top of your character's head. Move the left analog
stick towards you and you will begin fishing.
There will be two indicators. The vertical indicator represents the
line's stamina (whether the line will snap) and the horizontal indicator
represents the distance of bait (& the fish) from the location where
your character is standing. The fish will try to break free and you need
to tap X button to reel your line in while moving left analog in the
same direction that the fish is moving towards. Do not tap X button too
eagerly as it will cause the line snap faster. Tap while the vertical
indicator is low. and shake the fish with the left analog stick. Do this
and you should get the fish towards the edge of the pool.
iv) Where to fish?
`````````````````````````````````````````
You can fish anywhere as long as there is a huge water source. For
dungeons, make sure you finish off all the enemies there before you
begin to fish. There are medals to be earned if you caught a fish that
is longer in length than the required length.
v) Fishing Points & Abilities
`````````````````````````````````````````
After you have caught a fish, you will be given 2 pieces of
information, the fish length and Fishing Points (FP). FPs can be used
to exchange for 1 ability point where you can customize your fishing
rod. To gain one abiliy point for any status attribute, you need at
least 100 FPs.
Attribute What it does? Initial
````````` ````````````` ```````
Flight How far you can cast the reel 12
Strength Necessary for catching bigger fish 4
Resilience The line would not break that easily 6
Grip Feel just right 1
Luck Success of fishing depends on it 2
vi) Cooking Fish
`````````````````````````````````````````
Raw fish can be stored in the aquarium where you can used the fish
for the fish tournament or cooked with the cooking stove. Cooking
Stove can be bought at Morton's Shop at Palm Brinks in Chapter 2.
Cooked Fish cannot be spectralized but it can be use to restore hit
points.
vii) Baits and Lures
`````````````````````````````````````````
>> Baits
Baits can be bought from Fabio, a support character who is recruitable
after you have caught a 60 cm Nonky. For tips in catching a Nonky,
please refer to fish information section for details. Baits are
essential to catch fish. Once a fish is caught or line breaks, the
bait will be gone - thus make sure you have ample supply of them.
Bait Stats Boost
-------------- ----------------------------------------------------
Battan Raises fish's tentacity
Carrot Raises fish's boost. Changes fish gender
Evy Raises fish's stamina
Mimi Raises fish's endurance
Minion Raises fish's boost
Petite Fish Raises fish's endurance
Potato Cake Raises fish's stamina. Reduces fish's weight
Prickly Raises fish's tentacity
>> Lures
Lure Rod is a special fishing tool that make use of special items as
bait. The bait will stays on the lure as long as you have equipped it.
You still keep the lure once you caught the fish unlike bait. Certain
fish can only be caught using Lure.
To get a Lure Rod, there are 2 methods:-
1) Win the fish tournament
2) Invent it with the following 3 photos - Fish, Lafresica Stem
(Scoop) and River. Materials needed: 10 Rolling Logs, 10 Scrap of
Metal and 3 Sea Dragon Crystal [Cost: 750 Glidas)
Lures are special "bait" that requires some special controlling:-
You can get more than by buying from female Firbit, Olivie located at
the town square when you have recruited her.
------------- -------------------------------------------------------
Lure How to use it
------------- -------------------------------------------------------
Frog Move the analog stick left and right for around 4
to 5 times. Reel it for a second and repeat the
process.
Minnow For every 2 left/right movements, reel in a bit with X
button. Repeat the process.
Spinner Just cast and reel it in immediately once a fish got
stuck with it. However, you will be using it like the
Minnow.
Fork Use it like you are using the Frog Lure
You need to do these actions so as to use the lure motions to attract
a fish. For example, by using the Frog Lure, you need to move the lure
like a frog. You will find the in-game help for Fishing using Lures
upon getting the Lure Rod.
viii) Fishing Tournament
`````````````````````````````````````````
Upon completing Chapter 3 while at playing Starlight Canyon dungeon,
you will have cutscenes regarding the fishing tournament. Mayor Need
will be organizing a fishing tournament that would took place every 10
days (game hours). Once the time limit has reached, you can visit
Palm Brinks and play the tournament there. There will be an indicator
show how many game hour(s) are there left for the current tournament.
In other words, while the status indicator for "Fishing Tournament" is
on, you will be able to enter the Fishing Tournament. To do, move to
Palm Brinks. Head for the Police Station. Head right from there &
there will be prompt whether you want to enter into the fishing
contest. Choose "Yes" and you will find the Fishing Tournament tent
being set up there...
You can have a maximum of 10 fish participate in the weighing contest.
However only the top 3 will be counted to your score. If your score is
among the top 3, you win! If you get first, you will get the converted
Lure Rod - you can catch fish by using Lure instead of baits!
ix) Aquarium Basics
`````````````````````````````````````````
Midway in Chapter 4, you need to invent the Aquarium to feed fish with
the Electric Worm. To build the aquarium, you need to have photos of
Window, Wooden Box and Fountain. You need to spend 5x Rolling Logs, 15x
Water Element and 5x Glass Materials (all of these can be bought from
Conda). The aquarium could store a maximum of 6 fish. The tank can be
classified as 3 types - Rec, Battle & Breeding.
>> Rec
Under this tank, you can view the fish parameters and feed them with
baits. You can build up the fish parameters under this area. Move the
left analog stick to choose the spot where you drop the bait. You will
see whether the fish would like it. You need to build up fish
paramaters in order to win races at Finny Frenzy (Fish Race). You can
also rename the fish (only once). With the aid of items, you can
change the gender of fish (using a Carrot) or reduce the fish's weight
(Potato Cake). Please note that you can only feed the fish once per
view in the aquarium.
_____________________________________________________________________
| Parameters |What it does? |
|-----------------|---------------------------------------------------|
|Strength |How hard the fish will be attacking other fish |
|-----------------|---------------------------------------------------|
|Endurance |This will affects the fish's defense |
|-----------------|---------------------------------------------------|
|Boost |This states how fast the fish is |
|-----------------|---------------------------------------------------|
|Stamina |This states how long the fish can withstand |
|-----------------|---------------------------------------------------|
|Tentacity |States whether the fish is calm or reckless in |
| |fighting. This determines the fish's fighting |
| |ability |
|_________________|___________________________________________________|
>> Fish Moods
Under the fish parameters, you will find the fish mood indicator:-
Moody - Behaves in various ways depending on mood...
Sore loser - Doesn't care about winning at all.
Reckless - Lacking in caution. Blows all energy out then is tired.
Clownish - Fools around a lot.
This affects on how well the fish fights in the Battling Tank.
>> Battle
To build up the parameters other than using baits to feed them, you
need to have the fish to battle in fishing tank. Battling with the same
type helps to build up the parameters. If you use a different type to
battle, you might end up killing the fish. Battling helps to raise the
fish's strength stats. It will be advisable to place two fish there
while you are clearing a stage in the dungeons.
>> Breeding
Breeding allows you to breed two fishes (opposite genders) and get a
newborn fish. The fish can be different kinds as long as they are
opposite gender. To change a fish gender, just feed the fish a Carrot.
You can even cross breed fishes to get a new gender. To mate, just
place only 2 fish. Wait for the breeding process and you will be able
to move the new fish back to the Rec Tank. Please note that it takes
a while to breed newborns. For the breeding combinations, I recommend
you to take a look at Dark Cloud Fish FAQ written by Leo C/Mike O,
which is available at GameFAQs.
x) Finny Frenzy
`````````````````````````````````````````
Finny Frenzy will be introduced to you midway in Chapter 4 and you will
be able to race your breeded fish!
By winning the Finny Frenzy, you will be able to recruit Olivie - the
female Firbit who will sell you Lures if you come first. To enter the
Finny Frenzy, it is same way that you did for the fishing tournament,
except the indicator must state Finny Frenzy.
During every Finny Frenzy, there will be 3 races and each fish is
entitled to participate only once. Each race is classified into 3
events:-
1st Heat - you must achieve to own the #1 position
2nd Heat - you must achieve to own #2 spot or better
Finals - you must achieve to own #3 spot or better
Each event consists of 2 laps. The race is automated and the fish's
pace is dependable on how well you raised the fish.
Talk to the owl and you will be given to choose your ranks - Begineer,
Junior, Senior or Master.
Tank Strategy
-----------------
Tank 1: Keep A Steady Pace
- The fish will use the same speed throughout the race.
Tank 2: With All Your Might
- The fish goes as fast as possible but gets tired.
Tank 3: Come Out Fighting
- At the beginning of race, the fish accelerates fast then goes at a
steady pace.
Tank 4: The Last Shall Be First
- The fish begins the race with a steady pace and boosts its speed
upon reaching the fishing line.
Tank 5: Settle It In The Ring
- Fish will bump other fishes a lot to slow them down. Strength is
factor here...
Tank 6: Go With The Middle
- To get 2nd or 3rd placing easily, choose this...
Default Set of Prizes for Finny Frenzy
---------------------------------------
I'm not sure whether the prize list will be randomnized. I got this
prize listing when I first played Finny Frenzy.
____________________________________________________________________
|Position | Begineer | Position | Junior |
|Grand | Mardan Sword x1 | Grand | Garayan Sword x1 |
|2nd | Destruction Crystal x3 | 2nd | Mighty Healing x1 |
|3rd | Protector Crystal x1 | 3rd | Lighting Crystal x1 |
|---------|-------------------------|----------|---------------------|
|Position | Senior | Position | Master |
|Grand | Mardan Garayan x1 | Grand | Sun Stone x1 |
|2nd | Drain Seeker x1 | 2nd | Moon Stone x1 |
|3rd | Kitchen Knife x1 | 3rd | Diamond x2 |
|_________|_________________________|__________|_____________________|
Upon winning a race of that class, you will get a new set of prizes
for that particular class.

Mellow Banana* Piccoly, Niler
Bomb Nut* Gummy, Niler, Bon
Gooey Peach* Gummy, Bon, Bobo
Heart-Throb Cherry* Gummy
Poison Apple* King Mardan (Story), Mardan Garayan
*Like the method you catch the King Mardan, you can use fruits bought
from Adel (Bomb Nuts can only be bought from Mushroom Burgers at
Jurak Mall) to be used as bait.
There are 2 special fish that you need to take note of:-
Fish: Mardan Garayan Baron Garayan
Location: Great Fish Swamp, Sindain Heim Rada, Hot Springs
Time: 6pm - 6am 4pm to 9pm
Lure: N/A Fork
Bait: Poison Apple N/A
Rod: Fishing Rod Lure Rod
IMO, the Baron Garayan is the toughest to catch. Apparently the Mardan
Garayan is not the same fish as the "Holy One".
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part 2:
S p h e d a B a s i c s
------------------------------------------------------------------------
i) What is Spheda?
`````````````````````````````````````````
Time distortion occurs in a lot of places. You will be introduced to
these mini-game at Barga's Valley in Chapter 3. You need to hit the
"Sphere" into "Goal". To play Spheda, you need to have a stick for Max
to putt. Only Max is allow to play this mini-game. After completing
the Quest, all previous dungeons with "????" marked as Medal
Conditions with "Spheda".
ii) How the game is played?
`````````````````````````````````````````
Spheda is actually the game's golf mini-game! You need to wack the
Sphere into the Time Distortion portal. You need to make use of
rebounds (bumping). However there are some game rules:
The portal are represented by blue or red. To close a red time
distortion field, you need to wack a blue sphere into the goal. If
you use a red sphere at a red time distortion field, the ball will
repel even if you hit into the goal. You can change the sphere from
red to blue and vice versa by using bumping. Once a sphere hits a
hard ground and bounce, there are chances that it will turn into
a sphere of the other colour.
In a nutshell, you need to wack a sphere into a portal of its opposite
colour. You will understand more about this mini-game as you play the
game yourself.
iii) Rules of Spheda
`````````````````````````````````````````
Besides the colour of the spheres must be opposite of the distortion
portal, there are other rules that you must follow:-
1) Only Max can play.
You need to play as Max and he must equip with a stick. You can get
the initial stick (Handy Stick) near Barga's tree house (where the
nest is) at Barga's Valley. Upon completing that quest, you will
get a putter (Turkey) for Spheda. To play, just equip Max with
either 1 of these tools and head for the sphere for a wack!
2) Spheda can only be played in dungeons
If there is a "Spheda" condition for that floor, you can play
Spheda upon eliminate all enemies, the game will prompt you
whether you want to move the sphere.
3) Similar rules to golf
- The Handy Stick is your club. It is used to drive the sphere
over long distances. You can replace this club with Falcon.
- Swan (obtained from dungeons) allows you to drive the sphere
over medium distances.
- The Turkey is your putter. It is used to drive the sphere over
short distances.
- The Spheda Clubs can be upgraded, please refer to Weapon Flow
Chart under Items Bestiary Section.
- You will give a certain number of shots for the ball to hit the
goal. The shots varies depends on the distance of your sphere
spot from the goal. The longer the distance is, the more chances
you are given.
- If the ball drops in water or hit off-course, the shot will be
forfeited.
- The game will automatically ends once you used all the shots or
hit the goal.
- Make use of the map radar. The radar provides you the angle that
the sphere is heading
iv) What happened if I hit the goal?
`````````````````````````````````````````
The time distortion portal will be replaced with a treasure chest.
Prizes earned from Spheda are rare. You need to make use of bumping
in order to switch sphere colours and gaining a better shot.
v) Controls for Spheda
`````````````````````````````````````````
The controls for Spheda are relatively simple, you just need to hit X
button thrice for a shot. But there is a gauge that measures the shot
power.
Button What it does?
```````` ``````````````
X Swing the sphere, power level of swing and hit
Circle Cancel
Left Analog Determines the aim direction
SELECT Activates the map radar
START Pause the game
For radar indicators, please refer to Part II of the FAQ.
vi) Spheda Advance Controls
`````````````````````````````````````````
How to make your sphere do a spin or curve? How to time your shots
precisely and accurately? All of these tricks involved understanding
the Spheda Gauge.
Basic Spheda Swing
````````````````````
The basic swing comprises of 2 X button hits. The first hit will
indicate the power of the stroke while the second hit will determines
the accuracy of the swing. In other words, you need to hit X to start.
Wait it reaches the desired strength portion & hit X. Next the cursor
will determine the accuracy. Just allow the cursor to stop within the
Swing Indicator.
<< Swing Indicator >>
___________________
___________________| Below the meter gauge, you will find 3 shaded
|####|___|####| orange bars below the gauge. This indicates
the accuracy of the strike on the sphere.
If you miss the ### or |__| area, you will find a speech bubble with a
skeleton head appearing and Max will did a poor shot. If you make it to
the mid-point between ### & |_| area, you will find a music note and
an indicator that says "Nice Shot!". If you hit within the area, you
will get a ! sign.
<< Globe >>
Top Spin These advance controls are not being
| mentioned from the in-game help or even
Slice ----|---- Hook the menu. On the lower-left corner of the
| Spheda gauge, you will find a circular globe
Back Spin with 4 axis similar to the diagram on the
left.
Tech. What it does?
`````````` ``````````````````
Top Spin This allows the sphere to roll faster forward
Slice This allows the sphere move in a slicing motion
Hook This allows you to make curve shot
Back Spin The sphere will perform a back spin, thus slowing the speed.
If the sphere hit an obstacle, it will be move towards the
back
To do these advance controls, just when you do the swing motion (i.e.
after the first X button hit), you can move the left analog and the red
dot will be moving on the axis of the globe meter. Hold the desired
position and hit X to swing.
vii) Spheda Clubs
`````````````````````````````````````````
The 3 basic Spheda clubs can be obtained from chests randomnly found in
dungeons - They are Falcon (for long range), Swan (for medium range) &
Turkey (for short range). You can get Albatross (long range with curves)
and the Flamingo (medium with curves) by building up a Spheda Club.

I would recommend you to have the Turkey and a long/medium range club.
Long range clubs such as Albatross or Falcon are very hard to use for
small areas. It would be best to have all 5 Spheda Clubs.
viii) The Spheda Practice Area
`````````````````````````````````````````
This can be accessed from the "Spheda Practice Area" found under th
Extras Menu. To unlock it, you need to talk to Mina who is located at
the lobby of City Hall. The Spheda Practice Area features a 9 time
distortions course with a lot of difficulty per distortion.
Your scores will be listed under a top scores chart and you can save
this under the Extras file. You will begin equipped with the Turkey
Spheda Club. All other in-game Spheda clubs will be included inside
your item inventory.
This is quite a tough challenge. You will be playing at all playable
Spheda areas (all dungeons including Zelmite Mine).
------------------- V -------------------
E q u i p m e n t U p g r a d i n g
-----------------------------------------
i) How to upgrade my weapon?
`````````````````````````````````````````
Every playable character except for Monster Transformation has his/her
own set of weapons. Both Max and Monica's weapon can be upgraded by
synthesizing items into the weapon, thus upgrading their attributes. To
synthesis items into a weapon, you need to fulfil the following 2
requirements:-
1) Get Synth points - this can be done by levelling up the weapon. I am
not sure on how much EXP that a weapon must gain in order to level
up. As the weapon level up, it gains new Synth point(s). The weapon
will level up once the blue bar underneath the weapon status bar is
maxed out. You will find blue crystals being absorbed by the
character once you defeat an enemy right? These actually add up the
existing experience points gained prior to defeating that enemy.
In other words, in order to have more Synth points, you must gain
more ABS points with your weapon. ABS points will be absorbed
based on the final blow deal to the enemy. E.g. if you use Max's
right hand weapon to kill of the target, all ABS points will
be awarded to the right-hand weapon. The left hand weapon will gain
0 exp even if you have hit the enemy with it before. Magic released
from Monica's Absorption Blade accounts for general ABS points.
2) Spectralize the items first - if you select an item with the X
button, it will bring up the command list. Under the command list,
you will find a command "Spectralize". This command allows you to
convert any items into Synth items. A Synth item is actually a
glowing form of items. You can spectralize items in groups. You can
spectralize 4 items into 1 synth item. However to absorb the synth
item formed from this spectralization process, the weapon must have
4 synth points and above. Thus, it is not advisible to spectralize
too many items into 1 synth item. Weapons can be spectralized but
they offered low attributes.
For Ridepod, you cannot synthesize items into its weapon. Instead you
need to purchase new weapons from Cedric or via inventions. Purchasing
requires you to use Ridepod's exp points not Glidas by the way.
ii) What is build up?
`````````````````````````````````````````
Every weapons have 10 core attributes - Attack, Durability, Flame,
Chill, Lightning, Wind, Exocrism, Crush, Smash & Scale. Once a weapon
has accumulated the min. points for that class of weapon, you can
build up the weapon to a new model. If you modified the weapon such as
a Battle Wrench with 10 for Exocrism, there may be variations to the
name such as Battle Wrench +1 etc. The weapons listing will be included
under the Item Bestiary section.
iii) How to get new weapons?
`````````````````````````````````````````
If you want to customize a weapon, focus all your resources on that
particular weapon, in this case, the weapon will be better than a
newly bought one. You can get new weapons (advanced) via purchasing
from Weapon shops or finding it in dungeons.
To get new weapons for Ridepod, you need to exchange exp points gained
by Ridepod for it.
iv) Do weapons break as in Dark Cloud?
```````````````````````````````````````````````
Fortunately, it does not. The weapon with zero WPN will do "No effect"
damage, rendering it useless. However, you can restores weapon's WPN
with Repair Powders-type items.
v) Weapons Augmented Abilities
```````````````````````````````````````````````
Coins obtained or purchased serves some purproses. They provide
additional abilities to weapons such as poisoning, stealing, etc. To
enfuse the ability, you need to get Coins, spectralize them and enfuse
them into weapons.
Coins can be found in dungeon chests starting in Rainbow Butterfly Wood,
won from fishing races/contests, or purchased from Morton's Sundries in
Chapter 8. A coins listing can be found under the Item Section. Please
note that there are no coins for Proverty and Fragile. These attributes
will cause you do not want them either.
______________________________________________________________________
|Abilities |Coin |What it does? |
|----------|-----------------|-----------------------------------------|
|ABS Up |Experience Coin |Gain 20% increase in ABS upon defeating |
| | |enemies. |

|Dark |Dark Coin |Increase in attacking level by 1.5 & lose|
| | |some HP when attacking on enemy. |

|Heal |Healing Coin |Gradually recovers HP while in dungeons. |
|----------|-----------------|-----------------------------------------|
|Poison |Poison Coin |Weapon causes Poison status. Poison can |
| | |only reduces enemy's HP to 1 at most. |
|----------|-----------------|-----------------------------------------|
|Poverty |N/A |Gain 30% decrease of Glidas upon |
| | |defeating enemies. |
|----------|-----------------|-----------------------------------------|
|Steal |Bandit Coin |Gives you a chance to steal item after |
| | |an attack on the enemy |
|----------|-----------------|-----------------------------------------|
|Stop |Time Coin |Weapon causes Stop status. Stop causes |
| | |the enemy to freeze for a short moment of|
| | |time. |
|----------|-----------------|-----------------------------------------|
|Wealth |Wealth Coin |Gain 30% increase of Glidas upon |
| | |defeating enemies |
|----------|-----------------|-----------------------------------------|
>> Opposite Attributes - Removing undesired attributes
Some weapons come with unfavorable attributes such as Poverty by
default. You can remove these abilities by using the coin of its
opposite attribute. I.e. you need to synthesize a Wealth coin to
remove the Proverty attribute. Below is a listing of opposites:-
Wealth v. Poverty Critical v. Dark
Durable v. Fragile Absorb v. Heal
Finally, you can transfer the abilities of one weapon to another by
spectralizing a weapon and synthing it to another weapon. The
abilities will only transfer if the weapon you spectralize is +5 or
higher.
vi) Getting Crystals, Gems and Coins
``````````````````````````````````````````
As you spectralize an item, it requires 1 synthesis point to enfuse the
stats enhancement into a weapon. Some item requires more (especially
weapons). Crystals and Gems are very useful as they provides the best
upgrades to weapon stats enhancement as compared to other items.
Crystals are better materials than Georama Materials use for upgrading
your weapons. All of them (except for Protector Crystal & Attack
Crystal) gives you +3 to a stat instead of +2 or +1 from normal items.
They are cheap and relatively easy to get. However, you can get more
of them at will upon restoring Starlight Temple's Star Item shop, which
allows you to buy all the crystals for 150 Glidas each (exception: Power
Crystal costs 200 Glidas).
Gems are extremely rare. You can either win them as Georama prizes,
Monster transformation prizes, Spheda prizes, Finny Frenzy, Fishing
Tournament. It will be until Chapter 8 that you will be able to buy
them for 10,000 Glidas each. Exceptions: Diamond's selling price is
30,000 Glidas. The Sun Stone and Moon Stone cannot be bought unlike
the other gems. They are extremely rare and you can get some of them
from completing the Moon Flower Palace Georama Condition 100% and at
Zelmite Mines. You can get them from winning a Master Position at Finny
Frenzy though. All other gems can be bought from Morton's Sundries at
Chapter 8.
Coins does provide enhancement but they give support abilities such as
Steal, Poison, Stop, etc. Coins are rare as they can only be obtained
from random treasure chests or winning Sphedas only prior to Chapter 8.
As you reached Chapter 8, you can buy them (all except for Dark Coin &
Indestructible Coin) from Morton's Sundries. Dark Coin & Indestructible
Coin can only be bought Woody's Tailor Shop at Jurak Mall (future,
before Chapter 8).
vii) Faster level-ups
``````````````````````````````````
It sounds reasonable to defeat enemies that give you higher ABS will
provide better effect for level-ups of your weapon right. This is not
quite true. I have found out you can levelled up a weapon by having
using that to attack and kill enemy will give better results in
levelling up.
To provide faster level-ups, give your weapon a Level-Up Powder (which
can be obtained from winning Spheda or invention).

Items are the lifeblood of almost every RPGs. Dark Cloud 2 is no
exception except that every single item (except for key items) can be
spectralized into Synth items for synthesis into the character's
weapons. Items are being classified into severl major groups and they
are:-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
i) A m u l e t s
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
- These items protect your characters from a status ailment (stated in
the item) upon equipping in the item holders. They break if being
equipped for too long. You can carry a maximum of 20 items
- Amulets can retrieved from chests, breaking items or purchased it
from Granny Rosa for 150 Glidas each. You can only buy items unless
you have recruit Granny Rosa during Chapter 2.

This determines how fast Ridepod's move. You can have Ridepod move on
track, use a propellor to float around, a buggy with gear shifts, etc.
IMO, the Propellor Leg is the best leg parts unlike the buggy, which
requires you to know some extra controls in moving Ridepod. Propeller
Leg is essential to clear medals for time limit with less 4:00.

Weapons
````````
There is a large listing of weapons for your machine, Ridepod. The
strongest versions of the weapon can obtained only via invention.
Weapons for Ridepod cannot be build-up or even synthesizing crystals
to boost it stats. The stats for the weapons are fixed, which also
means their WPN points are fixed too. Repair Powder helps to restore
half of the weapon's WPN. You can also have Cedric to repair the
parts by using his support ability (skill points) or talk to him
and choose "Fix Ridepod Parts" option to repair the weapon.

Weapons are your character's primary source of attack. To inflict more
damage, you need to synthesize items to enhance the weapon's ability.
For example, Power Crystal adds +2 to Attack while Destruction Crystal
adds +3 to Smash. You can also spectralize items like weapons (which
requires more Synthesize points as compared to others), items (such as
Georama), ridepod parts and weapons, etc.
When spectralizing an item, the icon will be replaced with a glowing
icon occupying a new item slot. The number of synthesis points need to
perform the synthesis depends on the number of items that you have
spectralized. For example, to synthesis 3 Power Crystals which give
you a combined total of +6 to Attack, you need three Synthesis points.
For more in-depth help, please refer to weapon upgrading.
To earn synthesis points, you just need to defeat the monsters and
collect those blue shards to build up the meter. Once the meter is
full, you will get the weapon to level up. Different weapon levels up
giving different amount of Synthesis points and stronger weapons can
give up to a maximum of 6 Synthesis points per level up. Once a
weapon has reached level 99, it cannot longer absorbs the shards or
level up. You will find the name of the weapon changes as you level
up.
All the strongest weapons required you to defeat a required monster.
You just need to defeat the monster in order to build that weapon.
For example, to build up Sigma Breaker to Grade Zero, you need to defeat
these 3 enemies - Bundy, Moonflowephant and Toy Rock. They are found
in dungeons from Chapter 6 onwards. Chapter 6 refers to monsters in
found in star-gate blocked areas. (You can refer to the walkthrough
for the monster's location)
As you progress onto the game, you can buy more advanced versions of
the weapons. Some of the stronger weapons can be won by uncovering
treasure chests in dungeons like Zelmite Mines and Moon Flower Palace.
Weapon Flow Chart
-------------------
The build-up flow chart features the weapon's minimum stats that you
