In-game reset:
Hold L1 + L2 + R1 + R2
+ Start + Select during game play.
Moving quickly and silently:
Tap R2 rapidly when walking around to can hover
quickly without making a sound.
Hints: MOMO's first transformation:
Go to the Cathedral Ship [inside the Gnosis]. When
you get to the stairs to go up [not the ladder], have MOMO as
your lead character and search near the boxes. It should be there.
Hints: Card game:
Place a Zohar Emulator and a Gnosis card on the battlefield,
with any Mech, Human, Realian, etc. cards you want to boost. During
the block phase [not the event phase] in the enemy's turn, discard
the card to give your Gnosis +2 attack on your next turn. Make
sure your other cards will not suffer or die from enemy attacks
that the Zohar was supposed to block. When your move phase comes
up, have your Gnosis card trade places with another battle card
on the battlefield. The card will receive a +2 on its attack,
and the Gnosis card loses it and returns to its old attack power.
Next, trade them back to their original places, and the Gnosis
card regains its +2 attack, and the other card keeps its own +2.
You can now repeat the process for the other two battle cards,
giving all the cards on the battlefield a +2 attack. The effect
will last for one turn [as the Zohar Emulator card says]; make
good use of it. This will also work on any attack type, including
spread, piercing, homing, etc. Note: Be careful not to move a
Gnosis card onto a blank spot or the standby area, or it may lose
its +2 attack permanently.
Hints: Fast sneaking:
If you do not want to alert the enemies with your loud
footsteps, you can walk by hiting R2. Additionally, if
you want to save time, repeatedly hit R2 while moving
behind or out of the range of the enemies' view.
Hints: Shion's Giant Robot Ethers:
In the bottom of the Gear Shop in the Kukai Foundation,
you can meet a strange professor who wants you to find parts so
he can build a giant robot. Finding the six different parts, consisting
of two arms, two legs, a torso, and a head will reward you with
four different Ether attacks for Shion. These parts are located
in the various Segment address rooms, which you find through exploring.
The first attack is rewarded when you find both arms, and is called
the Throni Blade. Next, you will find both legs which reward you
with the Ether attack called the Dominion Tank. The head is the
next item you can get, unlocking an attack called the Seraphim
Bird. Finally, you will find the body which combines with all
the other parts to create the summon of Erde Kaiser. This is the
most powerful attack in the game, causing 9999 damage, but requires
twelve Skills slots it makes it the only Ether that Shion can
use.
Hints: Robot:
Head 1: Kukai Foundation Roof Of Our Treasure [inn].
Talk to the Tom in the dock colony's weapon shop to learn about
the Pink Bug. Then, talk to the Pink Bug in Kings Warehouse on
Kukai Foundation City Sector 26/27. Select 'Great Story',
then check the planter in Durandal's. Next, check the planter
in Durandal's observatory.
Hints: Defeating Great Joe:
This Great Joe Boss also appeared in Xenogears.
You can fight him as soon as you have control of Junior in the
Durandal. Have Junior in the lead and destroy the walls in the
top right room in the residential area. Great Joe will appear
and challenge you to a fight. Great Joe is not too tough, as long
as you have access to Shion's Medica All spell to deal with Great
Joe's Soul Crusher, which does a few hundred damage to each character.
Keep you character's HP high as you whittle down Great Joe's 9999
HP. Upon killing him, you will get Junior's tech attack Soul Rhapsody
and the ability to summon Great Joe in battle.
On the Durandal, there is an optional Boss named Great Joe. To
fight him, you must have Jr. lead. Go to the residential area
and follow the path towards the game room. When you get to the
first split in the path, turn left and go through the door. Go
up until you reach another split. Turn right and enter the room.
On the far left side of the room, there will be two doors that
you can destroy. The one on the right is hiding Great Joe. Choose
to challenge him and the fight will begin. A party of Shion, Chaos,
and Jr is recommended. Great Joe is very difficult; it is recommended
that your characters be at about level 30 or 35. Erde Kaiser will
also work. When Great Joe loses about half his life, he will ask
if Jr. wants to fight him. From this point on, until he gets angry
and threatens to destroy all of your characters, attack only with
Jr. You can have others heal him, however. Watch out for his Soul
Crusher move, as this can easily shave off 300 to 500 health from
all of your characters. When he threatens to kill your team, he
will use a move that gives you him a 50% chance of healing rather
than taking damage. This is where Chaos is extremely helpful.
Immediately, cast Light And Wings with Chaos. It is all right
if it heals him, but it will also clear him of the status change;
all of your attacks will do damage for the rest of the battle.
Your rewards for defeating Great Joe are Soul Rhapsody [Tech attack
for Jr. that absorbs Gnosis], Magnum Joe [summon Ether for Jr.],
and a swim suit [if you stole it using Jr's Psycho Pocket skill].
Hints: Hazardous Area Map:
On board the Elsa, you will see the pilot walking around
in Hangar 1 [A.G.W.S. hangar], looking for a map. He does not
give any concrete details, except to look everywhere, and that
the captain wants it. To get the map, speak with the captain on
the bridge. He will give it to you to take to the pilot.
Hints: Bravesoul:
Once you get the Bravesoul from the casino mini-game,
you can extract the HP Stong skill from it. It makes your strength
increase as your HP decreases in battle. You can extract it for
500 points, but your skill level has to be at skill level 4. You
can also do the same thing with the Double Buster, which you also
must be at skill level 4. Note: You cannot extract from anything
that another person has equipped.
Hints: Defeating Zolfo and the two Mecurio:
Since Zolfo will not attack until both Mecurio are
out, take out the Mecurio as Zolfo will use his shields.. If you
use MOMO's Sleep Ether attack [to the right of life shot], it
will put one of the Mecurio to sleep. When it is Zolfo's turn,
he will attack his own Mecurios and reprimand them for sleeping.
This should hurt them for at least 100. Attack once or guard with
Ziggy. When you have the AP, attack the one that is awake [if
any]. Zolfo becomes quite easy when they are both gone; just heal
and attack as usual.
Hints: Game completion data:
Once you complete Xenosaga: Episode 1, after
the ending credits roll, the game will ask if you want to save.
Answer 'Yes' and the game completion data will be saved.
Although you cannot load this saved game data with the Episode
1 game disc, do not delete it. It is likely that this game completion
data will be used to load your characters stats into Xenosaga:
Episode 2.
Hints: Defeating Minita:
If you are not properly prepared, she can be one of
the hardest Bosses in the game. Minita is first available when
the Kukai Foundation is under attack by the Gnosis, and resides
in Sector 26 above the Iron Man Bar. To get to her, you have to
first lower the overhang above the entrance to the Iron Man Bar.
Next, go to Our Treasure Inn, climb to the second floor, and exit
to the catwalk. Go to the right until you find a pile of junk,
which can be destroyed to reveal an Ether Upgrade S. Once there,
jump off the side and work your way across the overhangs until
you can enter the archway. Before going in, arrange your party
with all female characters and have a battle formation with Shion
behind Kos-Mos, and MOMO in the front to the side. If possible,
use tech points on Kos-Mos to allow her to use her R-Cannon each
turn, and whichever of MOMO's long range attacks you use, because
Minita is flying in the air. Having Chaos's Healing Dew on Shion
is good, because the higher healing of Medica is not recommended
for this battle. Also, put Attack Poison Guards on everyone so
that you will not waste turns to cure it. Also, Minita can lock
Circle with her attacks, making it impossible to do a tech
attack until that character is healed. If you choose to use male
characters, you will have things considerably difficult because
Minita does not like men. She will counterattack and use her Bibo's
summon far more often when they attack. Minita has 7777 HP and
her main attacks are Dark Star, which hits for around 300 HP and
can knock party members back. Her other attacks are the two forms
of Bibo which she summons to either hit the entire party for one
quarter of their current hp, or the far worse one which takes
all but one character's current HP and adds it to Minita's health.
To combat this. try to keep your characters HP at about 400 so
that they can survive Minita's Dark Star attack, and limit her
ability to drain large amounts of HP from your characters. This
battle is also hindered by the fact you cannot use AGWS, and Shion's
robot attacks almost always miss. When Shion has a free turn,
try to use her Queen's Kiss to steal Minita's rare item called
the Craft Apron, which is very valuable. The best strategy is
to constantly use Kos-Mos' and MOMO's long range tech attacks
and have Shion heal the characters to keep them alive, but not
higher then 500 HP. Due to the evasion of Minita, you will miss
frequently and do low damage when you hit. Keep at it for a while,
and as long as Minita drains less HP than the damage you inflict,
she will die sooner or later giving MOMO her Dark Scepter attack.
Hints: Easy Tech, Skill, and Ether points:
Use the following trick in the very beginning of the
game for easy Tech, Skill, and Ether points. However, it can only
be done with Shion. Go to the Gear hanger. Talk to the man that
is working on a Gear. He will ask if you want to do a simulation.
Say 'Yes' and go into battle Winning this battle will
earn you 16 to 180 points depending on if you got a x2, x4, or
x10.
One of the best places to gain ability points and gold is in the
EVS in the Encephalon in the beginning. Here you will fight the
enemies in the searchlights, which consist of four Dirlewangers
and one Kubel. Each battle rewards 1,600 gold and several dozen
Tech, Skill, and Ether points. The real trick is to use an attack
which hits the entire group on a turn when the character has the
bonus points icon in the Event Slot. The problem is getting that
icon in an order will you can have it on one of your characters
instead of the enemy. Try weakening the enemies so that they will
all die in one hit, and wait a few turns to see if someone will
boost and change the Event Slot order. If about four turns pass
by, then try killing a Dirlewanger or two to change the order.
If you can successfully kill them all in one hit, you can get
about 60 Tech and Skill points, and about 40 Ether points, with
the 2x effect. The big payoff is when you hit them all on a 4x
or 10x, which rewards 100 to 200 points; even better if you have
ability increasing items or skills equipped. Clearing the area
two to three times rewards about 8,000 gold and 1,000 Tech and
Skill points, and 500 Ether points, depending on your luck.
Go to the Cathedral Ship, then go to the mall [just after the
second save point]. Go to the room on the lower level with the
two Unicorn battles. One of the battles will be against a Unicorn
and two Ogres, and the other against a Unicorn and two Cerberuses.
You can use the following trick for both battles. During either
of these fights, kill one Cerberus or Ogre on the Bonus Point
turn, but only one. Wait for the Unicorn's turn; defend or weaken
the other Cerberus or Ogre until then. Once its turn comes, he
will revive the Cerberus or Ogre you just killed. Then, kill another
Cerberus or Ogre on the Bonus Point turn [only one, again]. On
the Unicorn's turn, the Cerberus or Ogre will be revived again.
Keep doing this repeatedly. If the Unicorn does not revive the
Cerberus or Ogre, then you cannot do the trick any more for the
rest of the battle. Just kill the last Cerberus or Ogre and the
Unicorn [preferably on the Boost Point turn]. By the end of the
fight, you have a chance of accumulating anywhere between 50 to
500 Tech Points, Skill Points, and/or Ether Points, depending
on how many multipliers you get and of what caliber they are.
One of the best places to earn Tech Points is the Encephlecon.
Get caught in one of the searchlights, and the warning sign will
appear. Take them out with X-Buster, Mystic Nocturne, Angel Blow,
Angel Requiem, Meteor Shot, Executioner, etc. They should all
be defeated in about two or three consecutive moves. Use the same
tactics for the other searchlights. You must use the EVS platform
to return and get back. Avoid using your AGWS unless you want
to spend 100G every time you are low on health. Use any Ethers
you want. Use the EVS at the Dock Colony up the small flight of
stairs. That way, you can quickly return to the Dock Clinic and
restore HP and EP. You should earn about 30 to 60 Tech Points
every battle, since there are four soldiers and one helicopter.
Before the Song of Nephilum is a good time to level up. Get Ziggy
to level 26 and enought Tech Points to set it in the HI slot.
Get X-Buster on the high slot as well [KOS-MOS]. Before the Song
of Nephilum, you should have Throni Blade, Dominion Tank, and
the head Ether. You will get the body later in the game. When
facing Albedo in Proto Merkabah, you must have Erde Kaiser, otherwise
it is nearly impossible.
Hints: Easy items:
You need MOMO and her skill 'Prayer' as well
as 'Sheep Beam' to do this trick. After you get set
up by the U-TIC organization, you will make your way to KOS-MOS'
memory 'hard-drive'. The characters that you have are
Ziggy, MOMO, and Jr. Get into a battle with the A.G.W.S. enemy
units that are around. Have MOMO in the back row and put the A.G.W.S.'s
to sleep. Remain there and cast 'Prayer' repeatedly,
The items it gives you are completely random. At this point in
the game you have probably found about one Medic Pack MAX and
one Ether Pack MAX. This trick will allow you to get your party
99 of each, along with all the other items such as Medic Pack
S/DX and Ether Pack S/DX.
Hints: Play level 10 cards without level
Hints: Ziggy finding MOMO:
When Ziggy is finding MOMO, the soldiers in the first
room of the Solitary Ruins are watching. Go to the wall in the
middle and turn back to the side. Do not do anything until the
soldier had passed you. The second Solitary Ruin is the same,
only do not battle anyone in there if you want Ziggy to be alive;
or try to escape then run really fast.
Niphilim:
In order to fight Din Gareth before the Song of Niphliim,
you must have access to the U-TIC battleship in the EVS system.
First, fight Meld Gareth about fifty times. After you defeat him
enough times, you will be able to fight Din Gareth. Note: Unless
you have really trained hard, it can be difficult to defeat either
one of these enemies this early in the game.
Hints: Luty at the Dock Colony:
When you first go to the Dock Colony, go into the Dock-Clinic.
Go through the door all the way on the left side of the room.
Keep moving left until there are no more doors to go through.
You should have only gone through two rooms; the waiting room
and a doctors pation room. You should now be standing in a smallish
room with a little girl. If you try to talk to her, all she says
is '...'. This is Luty, and she is mute. Get back on
the Elsa, and you will be taken through an intermission sequence.
Then, you will end up inside of the Gnosis Catherdral ship. Advance
yourself through the ship until you get to the first mall building
[it has a U.M.N. Save port and a silver shop port]. Go inside
and defeat the Lightning Gnosis. He is big and blue. Then, go
up the stairs and defeat the Hydra Gnosis. It resembles a big
plant. You should receive decoder number 15. Then, go behind it
and then to your left. You will see a blue shining packet on the
counter. Take it. It is a packet of Flower Seeds to the Ariadne
Flower. The next chance you get, go back to the Dock Colony and
give the seeds to Luty. Then, every once in a while, go back to
the colony and check on Luty and her now plant. Once it is fully
grown, you should receive a Tech Upgrade Z.
attack:
During the Gnosis attack on the Starship Woglinde at
Shion's second encounter with the Gnosis, as they chase her she
must run through the partition and quickly hit the red switch
on the other side to close it to stop the Gnosis from touching
her. As this is difficult to do, there is a second, easier option.
Have Shion keep running. Ignore and pass both red switches. Go
through the open door into the empty room a few steps further
down the hallway. Wait a few seconds in the room. The Gnosis will
lose track of Shion. Then, give up and return to where they were
before the chase. The coast will be clear and Shion can go safely
to her next stop.
Hints: Slide Deck Key:
When you are onboard the Elsa, before the ship is attacked,
you can speak to the repair robot in the A.G.W.S. hangar. He mentions
that he is the hardest worker, and that while he was cleaning
one of the cabins he lost his key to the Slide Deck. The key can
be found on the couch in the lounge of Cabin 2 [the southern-most
cabin].
