+==----------------------------------------------==+| Surprise Attack? [001] |+==----------------------------------------------==+

After the cutscene, you will begin your first ship battle.

Naval Battle: First Engagement~+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+~

~ | Rune Cannons: Water, Lightning | ~| || Since the enemy's ship consists of only two cannons, your best choice || is to choose Keneth under Rune Cannon because he has a lightning rune.|| As for fighters, select all characters(Hero, Jewel, Tal and Paula), || notice that as you add more fighters, the number of underlings for || your ship increases. Those numbers(number of underlings) represents || your ship's HP. Once the number reaches to zero; it is game over. |

| || Once you are ready, select Commence Navy Battle to begin. Move forward|| until you are within the firing range, note that you can fire in || horizontal or vertical direction. Keep firing at him with lightning || cannons and he will go down very fast. |

~+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+~

After the battle, you will engage your first battle.

Boss Battle: ???, ????

~+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+~~ | HP: - | Potch gained: - | Item Dropped: - | ~|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|| || Here Snowe will explain the basics, so if you are new to this game, it|| is a good opportunity to listen his advice. This is a very easy battle|| just keep attacking the woman to end it quickly. |

~+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+~

Duel Battle: Glen~+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+~

~ | There are three options to choose: Attack, Defense or Special Attack. | ~| Once you select one of the commands, you can choose either full power || or half power. I recommend choosing full power option. || || When an enemy attacks, use special attack. When he defenses, choose to|| attack. When he uses special attack, counter him by guarding.(It is || easy to guess what moves the enemy will choose by listening to the || tone of his voice.) || || These are the following statements that Glen will attack: |


4/64

| || - Now it's my turn! || - Are you ready for me? || - Pay close attention to my swordsmanship. || || These are the following statements that Glen will defend: || || - Let's see you make a move. || - Let's see how well you can wield that sword. || - Charge at me and don't hold anything back. || || These are the following statements that Glen will use special attack: || || - My next move will settle this, once and for all! || - Prepare to get beaten to a pulp. || || Follow these steps and you will finish this duel with ease. |

~+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+~

After the duel, take some time to explore the ship, familiarize with thecontrols and main menu and talk to everyone on the ship for a cutscene. Afterthat, speak to Jewel(white-haired girl) to initiate more cutscenes.

Buy some Medicine(at least 15 medicines if you can afford it) for now. Keep therest to upgrade your weapons; you will be going there very soon.

Enemy: Wild Seaweed

~+---------------------------------------+~ Before sailing to Middleport,~ | Item List | ~ explore your ship by going to

| | the main menu and pick Anchor| Medicine x 5 ( ) | option. Head into the cabin to

~+---------------------------------------+~ find a chest on the west sidecontaining .

After collecting that, access to the main menu and choose the Depart option toset sail. Move the left analog stick up to sail forward and down to stop theship. Press L1 button to change the camera view of the ship(choosing the 3rdperson view is a great choice). One quick note: press and hold R1 button tosail faster in world map or walk faster in towns/dungeons.

When you are near your destination make sure your ship is heading towards theport, or else your ship will be pushed away. This can be rather annoying asyou have to make one big turn before you can dock your ship.

+==----------------------------------------------==+| Middleport [004] |+==----------------------------------------------==+

~+---------------------------------------+~ Once you landed, talk to the~ | Items List | ~ soldier at the right to give

| Antitoxin ( ) | to learn about a monster| Fancy Console ( ) | lurking near the island. There

~+---------------------------------------+~ are two shops here, on the leftis a Trading Post.

Buy a flower seed here(it should cost around 45 potch) for later use. Take alook at his inventory and you will notice most of the metals and fabric are ofbad quality If you keep buying these items are sell them off elsewhere, thesematerials will 'upgrade' to a better quality.


7/64

Unlike in Suikoden 3, where the prices of individual items are displayed andupdated every time you talk to a trader, none of these variable informationare displayed in here. The only advice I could give is to trade with pearls toearn huge amount of cash. Since you don't have any pearls in your inventory,nor have enough cash to buy some pearls, leave the trading business for now.

~ | HP: 204 | Potch gained: 500 | Items Dropped: ?

| rune magic and your weakest character(most likely Paula or Jewel) to || defend. || || Damp Hairball's major attack is its water rune magic, Breadth of Ice, || that damaged 23-25 HP for all characters, it also attacks physically || to one ally for 17-20 HP aso keep everyone's HP above 30.

there, save your game first. After the cutscene, talk to Snowe to continue.

Naval Battle: Pirate Brandeau~+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+~

~ | Rune Cannons: Fire, Lightning | ~| || Although there are two enemy's ships this time, it still doesn't pose || any threat. Pick someone with earth and water rune and take down the || ship carrying lightning rune since the ship is closer to yours. Repeat|| the same strategy with the other ship firing water cannon this time. |

~+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+~

Boss Battle: Pirate Brandeau, Assassin~+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+~

~ | HP: 210, 187 | Potch gained: 450 | Item Dropped: - | ~|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|| || Make sure Hero is well equipped for this fight.

| - Your attacks are futile...Don't you realize that? || - Hah, child's play! Allow me to humor you. || || These are the following statements that Brandeau will use special || attack: || || - I will settle this... || - I'll kill you! |

Naval Battle: Retribution~+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+~


11/64

~ | Rune Cannons: Wind and Fire, Fire | ~| || This battle has a slight disadvantage since your members don't have a || fire rune. Assign Hero's ship carrying water rune and another rune you|| desire. Hero's ship should eliminate the ship carrying fire rune first|| and Snowe's ship should focus on the other since the number of || underlings is much more than Hero's. || || Once one ship has gone down, move Hero's ship and attack the enemy's || ship(carrying wind and fire) from the other side. However, if the || number of underlings for Hero's ship is below 15, move his ship out of|| the enemy's firing range and focus Snowe's ship to attack. |

~+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+~

Once you are back in Razril, head to the Commander's room. Go back to yourroom and rest. The next morning, save and head back to the kitchen and takethe meal to Glen.

Hero and his companions are going to collect wood, rope and coconuts. Coconuts

are found in the West area(Edge of Island), ropes are scattered around thebeach and wood is found by examining the sparkling light on the tree trunk inDense Forest and Hill. Press L1 button to enter first person view if you havetrouble finding the sparkling light.

After you have completed your own task, head to the Subterranean Lake to catcha glimpse of a mermaid. Examine the sparkling light where she stood to receivea and examine the glowing spot to fully restored your health.Head back out and if you need to buy some items, talk to Chiepoo. After that,enter the cave behind Chiepoo to rest.

Repeat the same process for two more days. On the second day, the mermaid willstay longer to talk to you for a bit before leaving a for you

to pick up. On the third day, she will ask Hero some questions, I am not surechoosing the second option will make her hate you and not joining your partylater so it would be safer for you to pick the top option and she finallyhands over the after the conversation.

Finally, the ship has been fixed and you are ready to leave the island. Talkto your party to find Chiepoo is missing. After a bizarre cutscene, save andhead to Hill to prepare for a boss fight.

Train them up to level 37, the best place to train them is sailing the seanear Iluya Island fighting the Red Rays and Spiny Geckos; these enemies gavefairly good amounts of experience points. Once you are ready, enter the WarRoom to continue.
