Instant pick-pocketing

Eternal Sphere
You must have the Sharp Edge obtained from Gamgee for this trick. Customize the Sharp Edge with Mithril to get the Minus Sword. Then, combine the Minus Sword with Mithril to get the Eternal Sphere. It can get more than one hit in on the regular attack without equipping a Slayer's Ring.

There is only one way to get the Eternal Sphere, and it is normally obtained very late in the game. However, it is possible to do it in Disc 1. The trick is the Radar skill or the Mischief or Trickster equipment. This will help to get the Mithril item so you can create the Eternal Sphere weapon for Claude. It is done by customizing the Sharp Edge with a Mithril to get the Minus Sword. Then, customize it with another Mithril for the Eternal Sphere. Also, the Eternal Sphere is more effective if you have the Slayer's Ring and Berserk Ring. This will help get more damage and hits against an enemy.

Force Sword
This is a very powerful sword that can be found at the beginning of the game. To get this sword, you must be able to Pick Pocket. You can get that skill early in the game after you go to Cross and meet Celine. Complete the Cross Cave. After that, go right from the castle and stay on that direction until you get to the port town of Herlie. Buy Sensibility (or whatever skill has Playfulness) at the Skill Shop. This will give you more money for the battles. After that, go to the mountains (if you are facing Cross, go left on that path). Save the game just outside the mountain, then go in. These monsters will be very difficult, and you should be on level 9 or 10 before attempting this. Have everybody attack with their strongest skills. When you win, go back to Cross, stay at the inn and repeat. You will gain levels very quickly. Max out the Perseverance skill first. This lowers the required Skill point significantly. Level up the Poker Face skill once, then you will have Pick Pocket. However, to use it you must save up 40,000 Fol (Playfulness will help), and go back to Herlie and buy the Bandit's Gloves. After getting the Pick Pocket skill, go to Mars (just before Herlie) and Pick Pocket the old man by the Inn. You will get a treasure chest. Go out and save. Each time you open the chest you will get three items. After you save, open the chest, go to Claude's Equipment and see if the Force Sword is there. If it is not present, go to "Data", reload the game, and try again. The sword can bring your attack from 300 to 1100. Note: This requires some time to complete.

Claude's Sawed Sword
Get Claude's Customize skill up to level10 by getting Metal Casting, and Funtuality to level10. Customize a Walloon Sword with one piece of Ruby then one piece of Orichalcum. The status of this sword will be Attack 990, Hit 80, Guts 60, Critical, 20; No Elements.

Claude's Silvance Sword
Get Claude's Customize skill up to level10 by getting Metal Casting, and Funtuality to level10. Customize a Walloon Sword with one piece of Mythril then one piece of Orichalcum. The status of this sword will be Attack 1210, Hit 99, and Critical 30; Elements: the "Happy Face" and the "Dark Eye" (attacking elements).

Lady Fingers
Customize a Knuckle with a gold piece and you should get the very rare Lady Fingers.

Levantine Sword
Although many believe that the Eternal Sphere is Claude's best weapon this is inaccurate. The Levantine Sword is Claude's best weapon. It has higher attack, and if you equip the Atlus Ring, you will deal 9999 for every hit including the special moves (for example, Mirror Slice). Also, if you equip the Angel Armband, the sword will spray stars which makes the Levantine sword even more powerful.

Magician's Hand
Once you get Precis, level up her Machinery Skill to level 10 for a better percentage of getting this item. Buy Tool Box (the item you buy in Linga in Academy Co-Op and its description states that it has tools). Machinery it until you get Magician's Hand, which is a better pick pocketing item than Bandit's Gloves.

Marvel Sword
In the beginning of the Disc 1, go through the mountain east of Cross Castle and go to the sand area. It is very difficult here at the start of the game. Earn as much money as possible and get minerals that are dropped then sell them. Go to Herlie and purchase the Bandits Glove. Go to Clik. Pickpocket the old man by the inn until you obtain a treasure chest. Go outside and save the game. Open the chest. If you do not get the Marvel Sword, reload the game and repeat. The Marvel Sword is extremely powerful and is especially useful when used by Claude.

Getting Ashton
Once you get to Herlie, talk to the people directly in front of the entrance. They will tell you that there is a two-headed dragon in the Salva Drift. Go to Salva and enter the secret passage where you went to get Rena in the beginning. The guard will say that there is a person downstairs slaying the dragon. Go there and keep looking until you find a sign reads "Dragons Nest". Keep going into the doors you find and you will see Ashton. Follow him when he leaves. He will leads you to the dragon and he fights it. When he sees you, he talks and the screen will flash white.

Eluria Tower card key
When in the Eluria Tower, you have to get a password to get a card key by looking at the statues. The code is A,P,O,C,A.

Cards, dolls, and portraits
Make sure to teach Claude the Art technique (Sketching and Esthetic Sense). He is very good at making special cards and dolls, and sometimes portraits that fetch more money. You can also create the Battle Art (for example "The Scream"), which in battle will aid in defeating the enemy.

Fun City
This is the place to get the best weapons for most characters. Win Rank A in Battle Arena and to get a lot of powerful weapons.

Leader's strongest attack
When you obtain the skill for the leader that makes jagged rocks shoot from the ground, do not remove this skill. Use the skill, and as it levels up the rocks will increase in length and directions making it much better than Mirror Slice. Note: For greatest effect, use the leader's best sword.
