Getting rolls that high are not necessary to beat the game (not even Post), and a majority of your effort will be erased when they class change. Fair warning that getting rolls above 15-16 can take a really long time, potentially hours if you are trying for the 40+ points it takes to make an Innocent Lord or Ninja. You can reroll Bonus Rolls at character creation by exiting back to Age Selection and selecting it again until you get the number you want. Most people will figure this out on their own, but it is still worth mentioning. You do not have to use any of these tricks to beat the game, but they can save a lot of time if you know about them. If your information comes from someone other than yourself, please site your source. The only kind of thing I won't add is stuff that goes against the spirit of the guide such as calling certain classes useless, mocking other people's preferences/playstyles, and advice intended for hardcore players that could take hours/days to achieve (like recommending Contracting a Divine Dragon.). I am more than happy to reorganize information and/or try to make confusing things easier to grasp, and I will credit you for the inspiration. I love being set straight, so don't think you'll hurt my feelings! I am also interested in any opinions, such as information being too hard to reference or things that are difficult to understand. If you see any information that is flat out wrong please let me know and I will fix it and credit you.
I remember doing it years ago, before making this guide, and being very disappointed with the rewards (I could be remembering wrong, or didn't look close enough at the equipment), but I do not remember what the items were. I cannot verify any information based on the 3DS remake version.Īnother bit of information I am looking for is the items you can get from selling Fragments.
Also, this guide is only for the PC and PSP version of the game. I am not accepting information, for this guide at least, on items that are impossible to get normally. Knowing the exact floor you found it on is unnecessary, but I need to know which dungeon you found it in. Even if it is "trash" loot, it is valuable information and I will credit you for your find next to the item. If you feel like helping out, I am looking for any loot drops that are missing from the Potential Loot sections. Thanks again!Īs always, the maps here can be used for anything anyone wants as long as they are made available for free. Once again I am amazed at the amount of work this must have taken. Vino has made more lists from the JP Wiki, filling in more gaps in the loot tables for Ishmag Underground Sanctum and Soldier of the Giant Gods.
Feel free to skip information that you don't feel you need to enjoy the game. You can beat the game without knowing every nook, cranny, and algorithm. This guide is a monster, but please don't let that intimidate you. Just remember that the game is made to be this way, and the best you can do is to be as prepared as you can be. And, of course, sometimes you just don't get any useful loot drops for your party. Other times you'll face a group of enemies that you think you have a handle on, only to be completely annihiliated in a blink of an eye.
Sometimes you'll fight what should be a tough enemy, but they will go down without any trouble. Keep in mind as you go that Wizardry-type games have a lot of randomness to them.
What I will do is list things that are useful to know about each dungeon, and text instructions on how to get to where you need to be until you find a decent in game map if you need it. The most important thing is to have fun, so use what you want to use. There is extra information regarding post game party set ups at the start of the post game section if you think that might help you. That said, I have typed up basic information on the races, classes and EX Skills to help you make decisions if you want to stick with one party, or you can go to an outside resource for a pre-constructed one. The choices are far too numerous, subject to taste, and post game is an entirely different beast than the rest of the game. I won't be covering "perfect" min-maxed-6-man-only-post-game-ready parties here. This is a basic guide for the game to help anyone who might be struggling to have a good start in Elminage, or pointers in case you feel stuck.
