Note: This game is also
know as: Wild Arms Advanced 3rd
Easy money - When you get to Serpent's Coil, the enemy there will always
be Jells and always appear in numbers of three or more. They are immune
to physical attacks. When you are at level 10 or greater, use only
elemental Arcanas. After the battle, notice that you will get Arcana
Gems exactly according to the Arcana used to kill the Jells. Every
battle can result in three or more Arcana Gems. Each gem can be sold it
for 100 Gellas. Every enemy you kill using an Arcana is bound to give
away Arcana gems.
Gems - In the Fallen Sanctuary, defeat Pilbugs with Arcana to get Earth,
Wind, Fire, and Ice gems which can be used in battle, or sold for 100
gella.
View character portraits - During any normal dialog, press select to
view the portrait of the character who is talking.
Alternate song: Go to save the game and press Circle(2). You will
be asked if you want to continue playing. Answer "Yes" and when the
screen turns black briefly, press L2 + L1 + R2 + R1 + Circle + Square +
X + Triangle. Instead of someone singing, the song will have someone
whistling.
Japanese introduction song: Press L2 + R2 + L1 + R1 + Triangle +
Circle + Square + X while the game is loading. The song that plays
during this time will now be in Japanese.
Alternate opening sequences: As you progress through the game the
FMV sequences that plays when you load a game changes somewhat,
reflecting where you are in the game. For example, Malik Leehalt and
Melody do not appear the first time you see it; after encountering them
they eventually show up. You will also hear the opening song in Japanese
at one point. Also look for Siegfried to make a very brief appearance,
as well as the prophets in demon form.
To get gems (which in some cases, are useful), destroy an enemy with any
Elemental Arcana or Guardians. At the end of the battle,
you should get an amount of Arcana Gems equal to the number of enemies
you defeated with that Elemental Arcana. Note: Using
Virginia's Mystic and an Arcana Gem could multiply the gem used, only if
the enemies are defeated.
When fighting in the Abyss, you can find an enemy called Gella Eater.
You have two rounds to kill him or it will run with your
money. The more money you have, the more he takes from you. Let them get
the money in the first round, cast Gella Card and you will get your
money back doubled. However, make sure you can kill them. They have
about 3000 HP.
Easy experience: Note: This trick requires a controller with an
auto-fire feature. You must have the horses. Go to the world map and get
on the horse. Set the battles for auto-fight. Set X to auto-fire and
keep it held. The horse will twitch quickly, but it will eventually get
you into a battle. The rest will be taken care of automatically. Leave
the system on for free money and experience. Make sure you pick an area
where you can easily defeat the enemies, or you may find your party dead
when you return to the game. If you set it for "Balanced Attack", your
characters will also use magic and your MTC will raise a bit. Note: Due
to the relative ease of the game, it appears that the developers made it
difficult to gain levels. Most enemies on the world map that can be
fought in this manner only give about 200 to 300 experience points. It
requires large amounts of experience to gain levels after you reach 50.
After level 50, this trick is only useful for gathering large amounts of
money for your ARMs and getting kills with Arcana to increase MTC.
Defeat five Telepath Towers and you will fight a Creeping Chaos (30,000
HP). It will use a move called Arc En Circl, which puts
almost every status aliment on everyone in your party. You will get
10,000 experience points for defeat it. After you defeat it, you
can battle it all around Filigia.
When you fight the Kraken in Little Twister, make sure everyone is
equipped with Water Ward and have it maxed out. When you enter the
battle, use Mystic on a Lucky Card but do not attack. Have everyone
defend. Even though the Kracken has a larg amount of HP, he needs to
cast Maelstrom at least 79 times for you to to get the maximum
experience points (about 995,000) from the battle. Note this battle will
take about an hour for the maximum, but it will give ten or more levels
depending on you pre-battle levels.
As soon as you can, buy at least three Call Whistles from the travelling
salesmen. In Clairborne after you buy the horses, go back
to Midland (where the secret garden is located. Call your horse and jump
over the crevice to the north. You must be at least level 10
to fight the monsters here, but they are extremely weak to fire. Equip
Virginia Or gallow with Fiery Rage Medium and summon at the very start..
It will not kill them immediately until you are at about level 17 or 18,
but it should do enough damage to kill them
with ARMs. Also, they drop Heart Leaf which will prevent their own
status ailment. Make sure you equip this and max it out. After that it
should be no problem to level up.
One hit kills: As soon as you can, equip the Bunker Cannon II on
the Sandcraft. When in battle, always use the force ability "Fire all
ammo at once". You should be able to kill all monsters in one hit.
Defeating the roped woman: When you are fighting the roped woman
you will notice she kills Clive first. If you keep reviving him, she
will only go after him. This makes it easier to fight her.
Avoiding battles: When a white exclamation mark appears over your
head, press Circle to avoid the battle. If you are near an object that
you can use (switch, lever, wheel, etc.) use it, or walk through a door
and you will avoid the battle without using any MTC points.
Easy battles: When you get the Sandcraft, you will fight some very
difficult enemies in the Inner Sea. To make these easier, gather 50
Dragon Fossils by fighting in Fortune Gear. Then, upgrade your Sandcraft
weapon to the Ark Smasher. Always use the "Fire All Ammo At Once" Force
ability to easily take them down.
When you get your characters to about level 25 to 30, and you get in
your Sandcraft, you start the battle with 25 FP. Put Virginia as
gunner, as she has the highest RFX. Go to Jolly Roger, and buy the Ark
Smasher with 50 Dragon Fossils. When you get into battle in the
Sandcraft, she gets the first turn. Fire all the ammo, and the battle
will be over in one shot. The monster will never get a turn
(including Balal Quo Naga). This takes some time, but you can build up
large amounts of Gella and experience this way.
After you get the last four guardians, put Lust Jaw on Virginia and fill
in "Weakness" where you spend your points to adjust
attributes. Then, anytime you get in a battle, have her use "Mystic" and
an elemental gem. (first find out with Analyze what the elemental
weakness of the monster is). When you use that gem, it does double
damage, plus gives her chain attack credit. This
works very well in the Abyss, as there are only five or six different
types of monsters to fight. Since she goes first each time, usually you
can finish a battle in one turn. This works best against groups of
monsters.
Difficult battles: To fight some tough Bosses, go to Green Lodge
(area with Yagdrassil) or Ka Dingel. Find the black sphere object to
fight a Boss. Do this on all the black spheres you encounter, and on the
well in Little Twister.
Make animal jump in town: Using any character's tool, get directly
next to an animal (horse, dog, cat, chicken, etc.) in town. Each of them
will do something different.
Converting animals to items: Use the tool Radar (Jet) to detect a
suspicious animal in town (dog, chicken, etc.). Then, use the tool
Change Crest (Virginia) to change that animal to an item.
Heal Berries: If you are running low on Heal Berries, go to the
Fallen Sanctuary and use elemental spells of opposing elements (Ice and
Fire, Thunder and Water, Wind and Earth). Along with getting multiple
Gems (which can be sold for 100 gold each), you will also get Heal
Berries or Gimel Coins.
Secret Garden: After defeating the Ring Keeper (the Boss in the
Decaying Labyrinth), talk to the girl. When you plant something
normally, you would usually leave and wait awhile after progressing into
the game. In fact, if you leave the Secret Garden and fight one or two
battles, when you go back they will be in the next stage. Keep this up
and you should max out your Heal Berries, Full Carrots, etc. in no time.
Fireworks show: Go to the Little Rock Inn and have Gallows in the
lead. Stay a day and when you get control, just sit there. In about two
minutes you should see a fireworks show.
Press Triangle to go to the menu, then go to "Settings" and turn on the
screen saver. Then, leave the menu things to where you can walk around.
Stand still for a few minutes to activate the screensaver. It looks like
a fireworks show and is nothing like the screensaver from the first Wild
Arms.
Wild Arms reference: The Tear Drop is a crystal that was used to
power a floating town/ship (mentioned in the area where Clive gets the
grappling hook). It is also the same tool that is used by Cecile in the
original Wild Arms.
Wrong article: Start a new game and go to Gallow's story. He will
talk, then the game will show the newspaper. On it will be the Ark
Skeptor, but the article will instead be about the "call whistle".
