A warrior takes sword in hand, chasping a gem to his heart.
Engraving vanishing memories into the sword,
He places finally honed skills into the stone
Spoken from the sword, handed down from the stone...

The 'Zodiac Brave Story'
<'How To Beat Weigraf'
First of all, you need to have gained the following abilities:
Two Swords, Move 2(or teleport or move 3 if you have it), HP Restore
Second, you need to have learned the following skills:
Power Break, Speed Break,
Third, become a knight, and you may want to have Punch Art as your second ability.
Fourth, equip Sprint Shoes and two swords and good armor.
Fifth, Now start the fight, if you go first emmediatly Move beside weigraf and use 'power break'(if you can't move beside him, move infront of him).
With two swords on, you get two chances of using 'power break' each turn, and each time 'power break works, his Attack goes down three points, it should only take six power breaks two bring his attack low enough to cause only 28 points of damage.
If you want to, you can lower his speed and use your free turn to use chakra. Weigraf is easy to beat now.
'How to steal the Genji armor from Elmdor'
He only wears the Genji armor the second time you fight him.
The sword is rare, the sheild is not very good the armor and helmet are very great, and the accesory is one of the best ones in the whole game.
You need Orlandu and Beowulf and a Caculater for this battle, and you will want at least two people to have the steal ability as their second command.
I think Elmdor was a Gemini, so you may want a female who's zodiac sign is saggaterias to do the stealing.
Heres how to prepare for the battle...
First, equip the chamelion robe and the 108 beads. Duplicate the Excaliber and give as many characters as possible the Excaliber.
Second, start the battle by moving having Orlandu and another strong warrior, preferebly a monk,attack the Girls/Ultima Demons. Have Beowulf cast Faith on the caculater and have the caculater move off to a part of the board by his/herself and cast 'haste' or 'reraise' and heal the party when they need healing.
Third, Beowulf should then use 'chicken' twice on Elmdor(he want trun into a chicken, but it does raise your chances off stealing from him) and have him use any other possible status effects against Elmdor.
Fourth, have your characters steal form his after both Ultima Demons are dead. You have a 5-10 percent chance of stealing form in front of him, a 20-40 percent chance of stealing from beside him, and a 75-85 percent chance of stealing from behind,(my character did, you percentage might be different, my character had 84 brave and she was a monk with 'Steal')
always keep Elmdor's brave around 10, and keep stealing, don't attack him until you've got all you want, you might kill him before you steal everything. Submitted by Mako Heero (Xx Mako Heero xX)
'How to learn Ultima'
Why do you want to learn Ultima any way? It's not worth it...
This his how it's done:
You have three chances of leaning this, the three times you fight Lede and Celia(correct>.
They sometimes cast Ultima when you fight them. Your goal is to get them to cast Ultima on Ramza, and once he's attacked, and if he survives, he will get a chance to learn Ultima.
Ultima is the only Guts ability that costs MP, and it's weak and takes awhile to charge. It's only useful if you want Ramza to master Squire.
Oh, and Alma can learn Ultima too if she's attacked by it.
'The Big Guns'
Sometimes, you might find rare guns on the enemy chemist and mediators, the sidequest in Goland Coal City features a lot of chemist and a few have rare guns,high level chemist and mediators also have rare guns most of the time.
Here is a list of the guns you can steal and what they do:
Blaze Gun, this gun shoots Ice elemental bullets, and it's very strong, I think it should be called the Blizzerd Gun.
Blizzerd Gun, this gun shoots Fire elemental bullets, and it's very strong. I think it should be called th Blaze Gun.
Blast Gun, the most powerful gun in the game, this is the best long range attack there is.
Stone Gun, it's weird and not usefull, you might as well kill your own ally than use this gun. Aslo go to Germinis hill and here you will find the blast gun, stone gun, and blaze gun. Keep going to this level until you see chemist and mediators then steal their weapons. submitted by Tekefa Benidict (red85wing@aol.com
'The Slowest but Fastest Job'
Caculators start out very,very,very,very,very,very slow, almost never getting a turn in battle, but they gain speed faster than any other job class in the game. Every five levels you gain when you're a caculator you gain one speed, and if you stay a caculator untill your Level 99 and you became one at level 30, then you'll be so fast, you'll be getting one turn after another really fast. After you get level 99 while being a caculator and gaining a lot of speed, switch to a fast job, like Ninja or Squire and you'll be super fast. Speed doesn't effect charge time, so you may want to do this with a character who won't be using magic or 'Charge'.
Invincible Female.
Here's how to create an indestructable female:
First, you must have stolen the 'chantage purfume from Meliodeal, change your character into a knight and equip 'chantage perfume'.
Second, you must have 'reflect armor' and an Excaleber and a Save The Queen.
Third, you need 'two swords' ability, equip both of the swords listed above.
Fourth, Equip the 'Move-HP-Up' ability.
Fifth, Equip either 'Sunken State' or 'Auto-Potion(must only have X-Potions)'.
Sixth, equip whatever you want as the second command ability.
Seventh, test her out in fight, she ever be turned into crystal, and she almost never dies.
'Propisitions'
All the treasures and lands that you discover from doing the jobs at the bar are based on other games from the Final Fantasy series.
'Infinite Rare Swords'
You can clone any rare knight sword that you own.
All you need is a knight with the 'Two Swords' ability and a shield.
Here's how it works:
First, Change Job to Knight
Second, Equip 'Two Swords' ability
Third, Place the knight sword that you want to copy in the lower hand
Fourth, Place any shield in the upper hand
Fifth, Go to a shop that sells swords
Sixth, Choose 'best fit' for the character who has the sword you want to duplicate
Seventh, Buy the 'best fit' items
Eigth, Leave the store and remove the items from the character
Ninth, Now check your items, you have two rare swords!
This does not work with the Materia Blade, blood sword etc., the sword you are duplicating must be better than the swords in the shop.
To clone a Katana or any other sword, do this:
First, have Orlandu in your party
Second, Orlandu must have learned 'Two Swords'
Third, Olandu must be a Squire to perform this
Fourth, follow the steps already listed above and you'll have tons of rare Katana's and other swords in no time.
'Olan's crossover'
Olan, Olandu's adopted son has played an important roll in another FF game.
Orlan is Olan's real name, it was mistranslated when FFT came to America.
He is the very same person who invented 'Triple Triad' in FF8.
'The Strongest Monster'
Get a Dark Behemoth on your team, and equip Monster Skill to you characters, and keep the Dark Behemoth withen a range of three spaces to the character with Monster Skill. The Dark Behemoth will then be able to use the most strongest monster attack in the whole game, Ultimageist! The lower the Dark Behemoth's HP is, the stronger this attack will be. The higher the Dark Behemoth's Max HP capacity is, the stronger it will be also. It works like this, if it's HP is 10/720 it's attack will be 710, get it? It attacks a large area also.
'Count down to full health'
Make one of your characters 'undead' and cast 'death sentence' on him, this will fully restore your HP in three turns. Better than Regen.
'The best Fighting Style'
Deep Dungeon "Lights On" Trick
If you have been to the Deep Dungeon in chapter 4, you will notice there are no lights. In order to turn them on follow this procedure:
1.destroy all but one enemy and keep him n stop or sleep.
2.keep choosing "Wait" for all of your team
3.pretty soon, the defeated enemies will turn into crystals and will light up the room. Submitted by Tekefa Benidict (red85wing@aol.com)
Defeat Velius
To defeat Velius, bring along at least one summoner that knows Lich, a chemist with a Mythril Gun, and anyone with a strong attack (like a knight or a ninja.)
First, move within four spaces of Velius and use wave fist. Then you should get another turn. Use wave fist again and then jump across the water on the right.
I think Velius gets his turn next and he'll use Cyclops. While he's charging, move your guys away from the target. If he targeted a certain person, attack him directly with that person. Hopefully, you'll have a summoner left. Cast Lich (It'll hit him for around 500, and he has 1000hp)
By now he should be almost dead. Just use anything you can to finish him off

Duplicate Weapons
Set the Ninja "Two Swords" skill on anyone. Equip a shield in their right hand, and the item you want duplicated in their left. Nnow go to a shop that sells the items you want duplicated, choose "BEST FIT" and buy them. Next, go to the formation screen and remove the items. You should now have two of the item you had in the left hand.
Easy Level Gain and Job Points Walk across any green dot until you are attacked, then kill all but one enemy. Next, find five squares that form an + and are on the same height level. Have the monk stand in the center with all other characters in the adjacent squares. Use accumalte over and over and when your attacked just use chakra to gain back your health. Repeat as desired.

Equipment Tip
When fighting battles against other humans, be sure to check their equipment. Sometimes they have items not available in stores. Use a mediator to invite them into your party and strip them after the battle, or use a thief to steal their belongings.

Get Cloud

Go to Zeltennia Castle and listen to the rumor called "Cursed Island"
Buy a flower from Aeris at Zarghidas Trade City then go to Goug machine city with Mustadio The screen will fade and go to a scene of Mustadio, Ramza and a steel ball.
Go to the bar in Goland Coal City and listen to the rumor of the "Ghost of Colliery"
After this, go to Lesalia Imperia and the screen should show a scene of a bar. When you leave, invite Beowulf to join your party.
Now that you have Beowulf, go to Goland Coal City and you will fight 4 battles here and save Reis. After you save Reis you will get a Zodiac Stone that will trigger the steel ball.
Return to Goug Machine City again and add the Robot to your party.
Now that you have the robot, go to Nelveska Temple. You will fight another robot kill him and you will recieve a stone that will bring Cloud to your world.
Now go back to Goug Machine City and you will trigger the time portal machine and it will suck Cloud from the future bringing him to your world.

When Cloud joins your party all he can do is defend and attack. You'll need to find his Materia Blade so that he can use all of his limit attacks from Final Fantasy VII.
The Materia Blade is located in the Bervania Volcano. Set your party's on Move-Find Item Then go to the highest tall rock and go to the top of it.

Immortal Female
To have a female that cannot turn into a crystal or treasure box, you must have the Chantage perfume (stolen from Meliadoul in Chapter 4) and a character skilled as a ninja, or have a Vanish Mantle as an accessory.
Put the Chantage perfume on any female character, and make sure the Ninja has the reaction skill of Sunken State (or equip him/her with the Vanish Mantle)
Go into battle, and hit the Ninja until he uses Sunken State (unless he has a Vanish Mantle) then make your Ninja run away after it is transparent (not acting!)
You will notice that your female character, after dying will be revived as soon as her AT reaches 100. This will happen every time she dies! It is better to have someone like Agrias use this technique!

Instantly Kill Undead
To instantly kill an undead (ghouls, skeletons, etc), simply throw them a Phoenix Down. You will never miss and they'll die instantly!
Warning: When you kill undead this way a timer will appear. If you don't finish the game before the timer reaches 0 the undead will rise again.
