If you need to find something quickly, press and hold CTRL (Control), then
press F button. This will bring up 'Find and Replace' box. In it type the
word you're looking for and you should be taken to it immediately. This is
much faster than scrolling through entire guide.
For your convenience I've inserted special search codes near every section to
help you easily hop on to that section by using search code provided. Each
search code will appear only twice in whole guide - thus getting stray hits
will be impossible.

VIDEO REFERENCES - G0300 =============================================================================== =============================================================================== For those who require help in getting thru the game further than what the walkthru covers, here's something you could definitely use. I've made a video playthru of the entire game from start to finish. It's available here: http://www.youtube.com/SplitPlaythru =============================================================================== =============================================================================== 04.) WALKTHROUGH - G0400 =============================================================================== =============================================================================== Note - I'm playing with Classic Controller Pro, so button instructions will reflect that. There will be no help in how to fight battles efficiently. This game is huge, and unfortunately I'm going solo in undertaking the walkthru. Top WLK01 =================================================================== WLK01 PROLOGUE WLK01 =================================================================== WLK01 Enjoy the introduction scene. Shortly afterwards you're thrust into your first battle. Press L or R to target a monster. Doing so displays the Battle Palette. Select the "Fight" icon and press A to start the battle. BP can only hold up to eight arts at once. Once a chr learns more than 8 arts, you may wish to reorganize BP. Approach target to auto-attack. Note that if you're too far from a monster, you can't attack it. Select Arts with Dpad and press A to confirm. You cannot use an Art when the icon is crossed out. BOSS - MECHON M82 Just pulverize it, as it stands no chance. That was it for introductory battles. Top WLK02 =================================================================== WLK02 COLONY 9 WLK02 =================================================================== WLK02 =====---------------------------- INFORMATION ----------------------------===== Unique Monsters - 16 | Quests - 81 possible / 4 timed =====--------------------------- COLLECTOPAEDIA --------------------------===== Colony 9 - Carbon Driver for 100% Veg - Sweet Wasabi, Cool Potato, Red Lettuce, Chewy Radish - Quick Step III Fruit - Dance Apple, Black Kiwi - Agility Up II Flower - Strong Dandelion, Moon Flower, Dawn Hydrangea - Poison Defense III Bug - Prairie Dragonfly, Giant Hornet, White Beetle, Sorrow Beetle - Regnas Gauntlets Parts - Blue Chain, Rabbit Diode - Ether Up II Strange - Plate Snow, Rainbow Zirconia - Strength Up II =====----------------------- LANDMARKS & LOCATIONS -----------------------===== Landmarks - Gem Man's Stall, Mechon Wreckage Site, Main Entrance, Ether Light, Central Plaza, Fortress Entrance, Tranquil Square, Outlook Park, Tephra Cave Entrance, Cylinder Hangar Locations - Military District, Anti-Air Battery 1, Anti-Air Battery 2, Anti-Air Battery 3, Weapon Dev. Lab, Dunban's House, Commercial District, Agora Shore, Residential District, Tephra Hill, Cliff Lake, Hazzai Cape The two chrs introduced are Shulk and Reyn. You control Shulk at the moment, and immediately next battle starts. LANDMARK Mechon Wreckage Site is uncovered. Note - I'll be adding notes on when certain landmarks are revealed to you. Any landmark you've been to allows you to warp back to it at any time you desire. Exceptions are when something in the storyline prevents you from doing that. When the HP gauge is depleted, the character will be incapacitated. Select Arts with Dpad and press A to confirm. Use Back Slash to deal damage. Restore HP with Light Heal. Select who will be healed by pressing up or down on Dpad. Smite off the Colony Crabble. You cannot use the same art repeatedly. After using an art the cooldown begins, and after a set amount of time, cooldown is complete and art can be used again. Talent arts are arts that are specific to a particular character. Select the talent arts icon and press A to use it. To use talent arts, the talent gauge must be full - gauge fills up every time an auto-attack hit connects. After Crabble croaks, it'll leave behind a treasure chest. Defeated enemies will drop treasure chests. Press A to open it and take the loot. After you take the loot, Common Caterpile emerges and green barrier is erected. When green barrier stops you from escaping, you need to defeat the monster to make the barrier disappear. Aggro is the measure of a monster's animosity towards each party member. The more damage that a monster takes from a party member, the greater the aggro towards that member. If a member of the party bcomes the target of a monster's wrath, an Aggro Ring will appear around them. Yellowish arrow denotes direction of monster. Some Arts are more effective from certain positions. Shulk's Back Slash deals more damage if he attacks from behind the monster. This is called the Art's Bonus Effect. You should use Aggro Rings to help find the best position. When an Aggro Ring appears around Reyn, Shulk has the chance to use Back Slash from the rear. If successful and the Bonus Effect condition is met, the damage value will be displayed in a greyish circle. Bash the bug into the ground, and the follow up with tutors on destination and camera controls. Note that you can review the tutorials at any time. More will be added as you play the game. At this moment you can check several new tutorials: battle tactics for Shulk and Reyn, as well as hints on Break, Topple and Daze statii. Proceed S towards the destination. On the way practice the new battle system on a variety of Bunnivs, Skeeters and other menageries. Whenever you come across glowing ball of light on the ground, take it - this is a Collectable. A tutor on Collectopaedia follows. You receive an award for filling a row and collecting all items in the area. Once you get to destination marker, a scene plays and Reyn leaves for a while. Tutors on shops, quests and trading will appear. Press A to talk to anyone with an '!' above their head to initiate a quest. There are three types of quests: - Story Quests cannot be missed and must be completed as part of the story. Whenever a story quest is active, "QUEST" icon will be displayed at top of the screen. In order to proceed with the quest, you have to go to the place indicated by red '!'. - Surprise Quests are activated when you're in the right place at the right time. As such all of these are missable. - Quests from quest givers are most annoying of them all. You have to find the right person to give you the quest, and that's not all. Quest givers are usually around only during certain hours, which makes them a pain to locate. Most quests received from non-named NPCS are completed as soon as you achieve your objective. Quests from named NPCs will (usually) require you to return to quest giver in order to complete the quest. - You need to pay special attention to quests with a stopwatch icon. Once you proceed too far in the story, you will be unable to complete those quests. - Completing quests is one way to raise the affinity with an area. New quests become available when your affinity with the area increases, and you'll be able to trade more items. The game features over 450+ quests, so you will not go hungry for these. Quest givers are also noted via '!' in the minimap. At the moment, we're gonna proceed with the game expeditiously until we receive three party members. LANDMARK Main Entrance is unlocked. For every Landmark and Location you discover you get EXP, AP and SP. For every level up and unique monster you kill you get Affinity Coins. Go E to enter Commercial District, and then check with the shop nearby. When you're done dinking around, go N. LANDMARK Ether Light and LANDMARK Gem Man's Stall are uncovered. Venture E across the bridge, and then hike N. LANDMARK Central Plaza and LANDMARK Fortress Entrance are uncovered. A scene will play when you enter the fort - now park Shulk in the building to the left and jog all the way to the back. Hey, it's the Monado, and Dickson. After brief interlude you control Fiora. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Story Quest - Delivering food Location - Dunban's house Quest giver - none Objective - Find Shulk and give him the food. Rewards - 0 G, 0 EXP = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Story quests (as well as any other quest) can be viewed in the quest log. Exit the house to have a scene with Fiora and Dickson. Run W across the bridge, then turn N, ignore next bridge and go up series of steps to reach Outlook Park. LANDMARK Outlook Park is uncovered. STORY QUEST COMPLETE! - Delivering Food Let me write a bit about affinity, which is a very important aspect of the game. Chrs can shout out an affinity cry to another party member to encourage or assist them depending on how the battle is going for them. Get close to a party member and press B - with this you can encourage party members or help those suffering Daze or Topple. Both actions improve the affinity between the two party members. Battle Start Affinity - selecting Fight icon to begin the battle gives you a chance to achieve BSA. Press B at the right time to rally the party and raise party's tension. Burst Affinity - When a critical hit connects or an attack misses, you have a chance to obtain BA. Press B at the right time to encourage that party member. This increases the affinity between the two party members and fills the Party Gauge. Perfect timing is achieved by hitting the circle precisely. Successful timing is achieved by pressing the button when the marked is inside the circle. You fail if you press the button too early or too late. Heart-to-Heart is possible if an affinity between two party members is deep enough. Look for the 'heart' icons on the area maps. Each 'heart' icon indicates a possible Heart-to-Heart. There's a Heart-to-Heart event available in Outlook Park nearby. The two people involved must be in your party, and affinity between them must be equal to or higher than the necessary affinity level. Damn tutorials... You can either walk back to Weapon lab or warp there. A scene plays where Reyn attempts to kill Fiora. Jus' kidding. You can now level up your arts and learn skills by selecting Skill Trees from the menu. I suggest you read the tutorial closely, as this is a pain to explain. Party is Shulk and Reyn - skip to Main Entrance. In front of you are two paths, take the left one. Upon scaling it you reach Tephra Cave entrance. Be advised that you're likely to run into Evil Ranghrot, which will have an adorned monster window. LANDMARK Tephra Cave Entrance is uncovered. That Evil Rhangrot fella is a unique monster. UM are much stronger than the other monsters in the field. Defeating UM will award you with better quality items, as well as AC. There are 3 flavors of UM: - respawnable UM can be killed as many times as you desire - quest UM only spawn when appropriate quest is triggered, and don't respawn - and then there are some enemies which only spawn during an appropriate quest, but their monster window isn't adorned Next, some UM only spawn during certain time of day and/or weather conditions. Fiora rejoins again, and you get a tutor on party gauge. PG shows the party's morale. It increases when bonus effects or critical hits occur. To revive a party member, at least 1 block of PG must be full. Get close to incapacitated party member and press B to revive him/her. With three full blocks of PG the party gets linked by blue line, denoting that you can use Chain Attack. CA is selected by moving the cursor to talent art icon, then pressing up/down on Dpad to select CA icon and press A to confirm. Chain attacks are another nifty addition to the battle system. When carrying out CA, you can select arts for the three members of the party to perform. During CA any arts that were in cooldown phase will be available regardless. You can deal substantial damage with CA. Using arts of the same color consecutively during CA raises the level of damage or recovery. Decide what type of CA to perform based on the circumstances. Talent arts will chain with any color, so try our different combos. After third party member uses their art, Chain Link may be activated. If it occurs, press B at the right moment and one other party member will be able to use an additional art. The deeper the affinity between party members, the easier it is to activate CL. If you're lucky, CL can activate up to 15 times in a row!

Monster type is shown in target window. Ordinary monsters won't attack unless you attack them. Target window of such monsters doesn't have any special icon. - Visual type monsters will attack when they see your chr. Such enemy will have an 'eye' icon in the target window. Generally they do not attack if you're higher level than the enemy. - Sound types monsters will attack when they hear someone run past them. Such enemy will have a 'sonar' icon in the target window. Generally they do not attack if you're higher level than the enemy. - Ether type monsters will attack when they detect ether casting nearby (an art indicated by a horizontal line). Such enemy will have a 'hexagon' icon in the target window. Generally they do not attack if you're higher level than the enemy. - If you are figting a monster near one or more of the same species, the kindred monster/s will join the battle.

Go up the ramp, and then mosey thru two green doors, turn left and follow Fiora's assets to LANDMARK Rear Entrance. Top WLK04 =================================================================== WLK04 COLONY 9 WLK04 =================================================================== WLK04 Final LANDMARK Cylinder Hangar is unlocked, and now entire Colony 9 map is revealed. I suggest you save your game, cos things will heat up in a few moments. Get to destination marker for several scenes to unfold. BOSS BATTLE - 2x ANCIENT MACHINE Yawn, pointless. You'll be briefed on switching targets and party commands. After taking them down, Colony 9 comes under attack. You can't skip travel at the moment, so you'll have to hoof it there. Game gives you a chance to system save, so use it or lose it. Remove all equips from Fiora, jump off the cliff into water and then leg it for the bridge into Colony 9. Fiora will leave for a while, and you're engaged in inescapable battle against Mechon M82. Once you inflict Topple on it, the battle ends and Fiora rejoins. To flee during a battle, highlight the talent icon and use up/down on Dpad to select the Flee icon. Press A to stop fighting and run from the monster. My personal opinion is that fighting Mechon during this time is useless, so I'd advise that you don't fight anything at all. Head for weapon lab to retrieve the Monado... but something will prevent you from nabbing it. No way but to return to central plaza - at this point Fiora leaves the party. An event battle against 2x Mechon M31 and Mechon 69. You have to kill everything to proceed to next scene. Dunban joins for next event battle against Mechon M82, Mechon M72 and 2x Mechon 69. Wipe the floor with them, and then go thru thru commercial district to exit Colony 9. Shulk steps up and grabs the Monado to wield it. Shulk's talent art has changed to Activate Monado. Select this command to switch between normal arts and Monado arts. Monado arts are very effective against Mechon. Whenever you fight Mechon, use Monado Enchant to grant your allies the ability to damage Mechon without needing to Topple them. On the other hand, Monado Buster deals major damage to the enemy. Event battle VS Mechon M42, Mechon M72 and Mechon M82. Dismantle everything on the bridge and move towards S bridge to gain access to residential district. BOSS BATTLE - LV10 METAL FACE You can't damage it properly, so instead stand your ground for a minute or so. What's up, Shulk? Monado not working properly? Monado has no effect on Mechon with faces. You'll need to inflict Topple before you're able to deal damage. It may be difficult to inflict Break on large monsters, but it is almost always possible if part of CA. BOSS BATTLE - LV10 METAL FACE Attack Metal Face until PG is full, and then select CA icon from battle palette. Have Shulk use Stream Edge to inflict Break, and follow up with Reyn's Wild Down to inflict Topple (or Dunban's Steel Strike). After taking off 50% of boss' HP, battle is concluded. Save your game, and a long journey for revenge is now underway. Thought Colony 9 was a big area? You ain't seen nothing yet! Wait till you get to Bionis' Leg.

Visions become important part of the gameplay now. During battle the party will be able to see in advance the dangers that await. The Vision Tags show information about what will happen. Upper row consists of following tags: Attacker tag / Attack tag / Victim tag / Status tag. Lower row is a Time tag, with timer ticking down as the attack is about to be executed. Color of the art name tells you what type of art will be used: white text are talent arts, red text are physical arts, and blue text are ether arts. Press B near another party member to warn them about future danger before it becomes a reality. You must have at least 1 block in PG to do that. Warning a party member will allow you to select an art for them to perform. They will auto-target the monster that attacked in the vision. Warning another party member about the future and using their arts might change the future. When the future changes, the vision tag is destroyed and a new future is born. Avoid danger by changing the future in your favor. A monster's talent art can only be blocked using Shield. For this enemy, when it uses Arachno Crush I talent art, do the following: - if leader is Shulk, activate Monado and use Shield to change the future - if leader is Reyn, tell Shulk to use Shield to change the future The future will change if you Topple (time left until the future comes to pass will be extended) or Daze the opponent (time left will be extended and the monster will use a different art). Using CA will pause the timer, postponing the future. BOSS BATTLE - LV12 ARACHNO QUEEN, SOLDIER ARACHNO, CAPTAIN ARACHNO, ARACHNO POD Get rid of Soldiers and Captains first, and then focus on the Queen to smash her to bits. After the battle you get Queen's Gut Fluid, which is used to dissolve a net blocking W tunnel. You can now set up skill links.

SE of Zax Guidepost is a big rock - go around it and go N until you reach the edge. Now turn E and keep going until you enter a rather long tunnel leading to LANDMARK Believer's Paradise. Jump off the cliff into water below and go S to discover Kasharpa Falls. Pick up Kasharpa Water from behind the waterfall. From Kasharpa Falls swim W to get on small patch of land connected by two bridges, and then cross the bridge to SE for LANDMARK Bask Cave Passage. Path ahead leads to Colony 6, but we don't wanna go there yet. Instead go E from Kasharpa Falls to discover Maguel Road. To the E of Believer's Paradise you can find the stone pillar with winding path around it I already mentioned before. Going there will unlock LANDMARK Spiral Valley. Descend down Maguel Road and follow the road to LANDMARK Raguel Bridge N. Cross the bridge to unlock LANDMARK Raguel Bridge S. Skip to Raguel Bridge N and jump into the lake below to unlock Raguel Lake. From here swim S as far as you can to find Tranquil Grotto. Skip to Raguel Bridge S and now walk W, until you find a cave tunnel leading S. Enter it to unlock Kisk Cave. Exit the cave using the other tunnel to find an incline leading SE to a ledge overlooking Raguel Bridge S. Pick up Bird Necklace nearby, then return to W entrance into Kisk Cave. Going SW will lead you to a camp, but you're not allowed to enter yet. Instead venture further W, keeping along the S edge of the map. Quite soon you'll be able to go S again - doing so unlocks Vollf Lair. Skip to Ragrinar Canyon Path and as soon as you enter Gaur Plain, turn S and keep going. Near the ledge you can pick up Torn Paper. Whew, this concludes the tour of Bionis' Leg - head for your destination now. A scene plays in which Shulk and Reyn find a broken buggy, then Shulk gets a vision of person being in danger. Save your game and then hurry towards Rho Oasis. Win the event battle VS 2x Berserk Ardun. After Juju (the boy you saved) tells Shulk and Reyn to come to the camp he's from. The camp is located S from Kamos Guidepost.

Turn around and then veer left to unlock Test Pit 2. Right and forward thrice to unlock Test Pit 3. Save your game, then follow the path for event battle VS Mechon M42, Mechon M53X and 2x Mechon M32X. After the battle LANDMARK Mining Base is unlocked, as well as Storage Depot. Head S from Storage Depot to reach Central Terminal. What awaits ahead is twists and turns of tunnels - ultimately you should aim to go SE towards next destination, but you'll need to flip a switch first, so follow directions liberally. From Central Terminal follow the railtracks until you get to the point where they stop because the ground gave way. Turn right to unlock Test Pit 4, go downstairs and then turn around. You'll see six carts if you're in the right spot. Go right, right again, and then forward to reach Observation Point. To SW is is depot access lever you need to operate to open storage depot gate. Retrace back to the six carts I wrote above. Opposite of the stairs is another railtrack. Turn left and follow tracks to now open storage depot gate. LANDMARK Central Pit - Entrance unlocks at this point. Use the elevator to reach Central Pit - Level 1. Walk to the metal bridge and cross it over to gigantic machine in the middle of the cave.

So from E side hop onto the platform to reach N side (kill Mechon M84 here), then do the same for W side (kills 2x Mechon M84 here). Go into the tunnel and follow it to yet another elevator. Are you prepared? Take the elevator down and steel yourself. BTW, large monsters can resist Break arts (doesn't mean they're immune, though). However, these enemies generally cannot defend against Break arts used in CA. BOSS BATTLE - LV25 XORD Xord frequently summons Mechon M55 and Mechon M67 for assistance. Get rid of these pests to fill up PG, and then unleash CA on Xord, making sure to include Break arts. Battle concludes after you take off about 25% of Xord's HPs. LANDMARK Central Pit - Base Level is unlocked, and you nab Gadolt's Rifle. Go up the slope and hop onto the elevator, thru the tunnel and upstairs. Now hop onto one of counter-clockwise metal platforms and jump off towards S to reach Freight Elevator. Try to operate the button...

Kill off Makna Brog blocking an entrance to the cave - step into Sap Cave to collect 3x Algora Sap, then continue toward destination marker. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Story Quest - Mystery girl rescue Location - Makna Forest, NE from Sap Cave Quest giver - none Objective - Get some Water Ether Crystal from Lakeside.

STORY QUEST COMPLETE! - Mystery girl rescue BOSS BATTLE - 3x LV28 PUERA TELETHIA Duke it out with new type of enemies that use an Aura which enable them to read your moves. To negate this ability, Shulk learns new Monado art Purge, which removes foe's Aura and briefly prevents them from activating another Aura or Spike effect. Oh kewl! I now have two babes in my party. Game now introduces Spike ability, a very annoying part of battle. Monsters with Spike abilities auto-deal damage and/or inflict debuffs on party member in certain circumstances. Spike damage cannot be lessened by increasing defense, but it can reduced via Spike Defense gems. Spike can be prevented with Monado's Purge. There are three types of Spike ability. - Counter Spike - foe deals damage and/or inflict debuffs when attacked - Down Spike - Toppled foe deals damage and/or inflict debuffs when attacked - Close Spike - foe deals damage and/or inflict debuffs if chr gets too close Some more tips... Counter Spike can be neutralized by inflicting Topple. Spike damage taken is recognized by purple digits. LANDMARK Nopon Arch is unlocked, and we're only halfway thru. Follow the dirt road and after going under second giant log, a lake opens to your left. Go for a swim to unlock Eks Watering Hole (there's no landmarks or locations on W, N or E side of Eks Watering Hole, but you're welcome to explore anyway). Ascend the log which is jutting out from Eks Watering Hole towards S and keep going to find LANDMARK Sparkling Pool. Now, return to dirt road S from watering hole and trek along it towards E to reach LANDMARK Twisted Tree Gate. A wooden bridge extends from the ground to a platform above the tree, so use it. There's a wide network of bridges connecting platforms, allowing you to ignore most enemies below on ground. Also, some of the areas in Makna Forest can only be reached by making use of these bridges. By going SE from Twisted Tree Gate you reach another lake, Clear Waterfall. Jungle path further SE from Clear Waterfall unlocks Yellow Flower Grove. Continue going SE (careful of Deinos Sauros) to uncover Decayed Forest. By schlepping W from Decayed Forest you unlock LANDMARK Glowmoss Trihenge. Go a bit more W to find a river flowing from Clear Waterfall. Follow it S to reach Abyss Basin, and then go SE from here until you reach part of the map resembling letter D. Go S around it to unlock Hode Lair, as well as reaching a fence which is held in place by a bolt. Why not just shoot it away??? Eh, we can't open it yet. Warp to Glowmoss Trihenge and go S to find Precipice Bridge... going N from Abyss Basin will have you reach LANDMARK Windmill Pavilion. This is everything we can uncover at this moment - make due to destination marker for LANDMARK Village Entrance.
