It's a shame this side of the Pacific never saw what the Japanese public got to see. I'll be a bit brief, but straight-forward, on some of the differences. In Japan, there were two versions of FFVI released-FFVI/Hard-Type, and FFIV/Easy-Type. Hard-Type was for advanced RPG gamers, while Easy-Type was for those that just started out and for your eight-year old brother. Many items were removed, and boss difficulty was toned- down. However, the U.S. Version of FFIV is still based on FFIV/Easy-Type, but they still modified the game for U.S. audiences. They made major changes to the script and took out many things out of FFIV/Easy-Type/Japan. This strategy guide is still very incomplete (very, very, very, VERY incomplete and it is going to be complete by zero). I need people to help me with it. Please, if you can, e-mail me. I plan to make TONS of updates, and there probably never will be a "final" version until I've played the game to death. All references in my guide are the original FF4 names, not the U.S. version names. Hey, FF4/HT gamers out there! I am in real need of people to help finish my Strategy Guide. Please e-mail me if you would like to help me-I can't do this quickly all alone! I'd really like to thank Byblos, since he helped me *immensely* with this Faq. Its really great someone can help me with it, especially since I don't have much time anymore. Anyway, enjoy this update, and with Byblos helping me, more updates to come! Thanks to Brian Lehnert, who corrected me on my Faq. / \ /__________________________________________________________\ |//////|__________________________________________________________|\\\\\\| |\\\\\\|__________________________________________________________|//////| \ / \ / [Zero's Introduction] Hi, and welcome to my faq, you might not now this, but I am the first one, that is writing a faq for Final Fantasy 4 Hard-type. The resin why I am writing a faq for such a old games is because it is NOW in English thanks to J2e Translations. Sorry to say but Arlen Kwong (the real owner of this faq) couldn't or don't have time to update the faq, so I (zero) e-mail him and ask if I can finish, rewrite, add, and change some things to this faq. He said sure, (So I didn't rip anyone off!) so you might see some things change and you might see things by Arlen Kwong or me, zero or even both. There probably will be a "final" version after I've played the game to death or all of you Final Fantasy fans help me out! If anyone would like to change anything, add anything, or put anything (like a Special Thanks to anyone) I will do it right away. I am also thinking of adding a list of Final Fantasy 4 fan, e-mail me your name and I might add it. This FAQ is also base on FF4 hard-type and it is now being complete by me, zero. This FAQ is now base on the J2e Translations of FF4 hard-type. J2e Translations is at http://members.aol.com/j2etrans/index.html If J2e don't want their web site in my faq just e-mail me and I will take it off. Note: This may be my LAST UPDATE to this walkthrough, summer is over and no one but a few have e-mail me to help me out. So, if this is the last update, bye everyone hope you enjoy this faq. I may do some small updates. I really trying to complete my "Der Langrisser" faq...so can anyone help me out with any of these faqs? / \ /__________________________________________________________\ |//////|__________________________________________________________|\\\\\\| |\\\\\\|__________________________________________________________|//////| \ / \ / [11 things to remember before you start] 1. Remember to stock up on items, before going to an unexplored place. 2. Remember that water type enemy (fish) are week to thunder. 3. Remember that fire type enemy (not too many around) are week to ice and water. 4. Remember that dead type enemy (zombie) are week to fire and holy. 5. Remember that dead type enemy (zombie) are strong to dark. 6. Remember that flying type enemy (birds) are week to arrows and Chain's jump. 7. Try to buy and find the best weapon or armor for all of your party. 8. Try to unequip any ally's weapon and armor, that is going to leave, don't worry I will tell you in the walkthrough. 9. Try not to level up too much, unless he or she is in your final party, don't worry I will tell you in the walkthrough. 10. Don't give your party strange weapon, like this, if you had to buy Rydia (she can equip a lot of things) new equipment, and you can buy her a rod or bow and arrows (the bow and arrows are stronger). What do you buy? Of course you get the rod. Why? you may say, because Rydia is more train with the rod, and if you get her bow and arrows, she will almost always miss the enemy. 11. Always kill the front lines of enemy, because enemy in the back line will take only half damage from your attacks. / \ /__________________________________________________________\ |//////|__________________________________________________________|\\\\\\| |\\\\\\|__________________________________________________________|//////| \ / \ / [General and Basic Tips] "General and Basic Tips" was done by Dingo Jellybean. E-mail bellybutton21@hotmail.com I (zero) change safe to save :-D and edit it a little. -- You should try to save often. You will never know what lies around the corner.---- -- Always try to keep a constant supply of items. Stuff like Cure Potions or--------- -- Tents and Cabins, because most likely your magic will run dry.-------------------- -- You might not always have the best equipment on and sometimes the prices can------ -- get fairly steep. You should always stay near a save point or a town and wander--- -- around and fight enemies for gil, that way you will not be too far off from------- -- your resting point incase enemies give you some trouble.-------------------------- -- Having trouble against a boss? Having the newest equipment is not always the------ -- best choice. If you are fighting against Rubicant and you so happen to have the--- -- Fire Brand sword then what good will it do you if you just keep healing him?------ -- Also some bosses might not have weaknesses and you will have to start gaining----- -- some levels before you fight the boss. Also are your rows properly straightened--- -- out? Always place fighters up front and magic users or people with low defense---- -- in the back, that way you can have more of a balanced approach when fighting------ -- against bosses or enemies.-------------------------------------------------------- -- If you can heal outside of battle, you should use your magic instead of your------ -- items. Items don't come back after use and you will need gil to buy more items.--- -- However magic can be replenished at save points, inns, or using your Ethers.------ -- Try not to run from battle too often, incases you'll end up losing a lot of------- -- gold. Also enemies that are stronger than you, you'll lose more gold from them---- -- if you run away. You might not always lose gold, but do it too often you---------- -- probably won't have enough to buy yourself the latest armor or even give---------- -- yourself a good night's rest. -- Bows and Arrows are weapons that don't lose strength when your in the back-------- -- row but they have a very low hit percentage. Only Rosa can use aim and ----------- -- successfully attack the target at a higher percentage ratio. Also if the person--- -- is left handed then put the bow on the right hand and arrows on the left hand,---- -- this way your attack power can be higher than if the bow was on the left hand.---- -- Believe it or not but Bows and Arrows can be the most expensive weapons in-------- -- the game. Simply because you have to buy arrows over and over again because as---- -- you can expect arrows don't have unlimited uses, so always try to keep an extra--- -- Rod or Staff in your inventory incase you run out of arrows.---------------------- -- When ever you see treasure chests, try to save before you look in them or--------- -- keep your party's HP up. Sometimes there are monsters inside those treasure------- -- chests that will take quite a bit of work to defeat.------------------------------ -- Keep consideration of your magic points. Using your most powerful magic to-------- -- defeat opponents is not always the best way to end the battle often you won't----- -- have enough to replenish your party's HP.----------------------------------------- -- Constantly keep your party's HP up. Unless you are a 100% sure you will be-------- -- able to mop the floor with your enemies then you should always keep a close eye--- -- on your HP.----------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Whenever you bring your party member back from a swoon status always have the----- -- next available person heal that party member because your party member's HP will-- -- not regenerate themselves and the party member only starts out with 15% of their-- -- max HP, so unless you have LIFE2 then I suggest you should always have the next--- -- available person heal the party member just back from the swoon status so you----- -- wouldn't have to risk that party member suffering a blow that would put that------ -- person back on swoon status.------------------------------------------------------ -- You can switch weapons during battle. Just go to your Item command and scroll----- -- up and you will see the weapon or shield in your left and right hands. Hit A on--- -- the weapon you want to replace and go over the weapon in your inventory and------- -- press A. Be sure to make your decision quick otherwise an opponent can seriously-- -- damage your party members while you were looking for the best weapon, so make----- -- sure you have the most suited weapon before you enter battle.--------------------- -- When your selecting your magic, the Active Time Battle stops so take your--------- -- time to decide which magic is best.----------------------------------------------- -- Also continuously attack your opponent because unlike previous Final Fantasy------ -- games you will be attacked even if you are not ready, so make sure you attack----- -- quickly. Incase you still need some time to think you can always hit the Start---- -- button during battle to pause the game.------------------------------------------- -- Keep magic users in the back and fighters in the front, that way your------------- -- healers won't die so quickly. You can also do this during battle by hitting the--- -- control pad left on the command box, but its only for the battle. To make this---- -- permanent(or until you decide to change it again) go to your menu screen and hit-- -- change. Also you can switch the position of your characters by using the Form----- -- command on the Menu Screen.------------------------------------------------------- -- When you get turned into a Toad, Pig, or Mini your states drop and you cannot----- -- use magic. To reverse this status effect you can either sleep at an inn, use a---- -- Tent or Cabin, use your Heal spell, or you can cast that same status effect------- -- spell back on the character that was transformed. For example if a party member--- -- was turned into a Mini status you can cast Mini again to change that person------- -- back.----------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Always check pots or other things that can carry items besides treasure----------- -- chests, although most of the things you find are just Potions, you should pick---- -- them up anyway because hey, they're free!----------------------------------------- -- If this is your first time playing an RPG game or Final Fantasy game for that----- -- matter then I suggest you go to the Training Room in the Town of Baron to gather-- -- up information about the basics of the game. Learning the basics of the game------ -- will help you learn some of the more advance and complex features of the games---- -- and also most other RPGs. (This is only for Final Fantasy 2)---------------------- -- Try to keep all weapons you find that normally are not sold at weapons shops,----- -- also armors, they can help you out in future battles or when your Bow and Arrow--- -- users run out of Arrows and they need a new weapon to use in the middle of-------- -- battles.-------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Riding Chocobos is a fun way to move across town to town, but if your riding------ -- Chocobos enemies can't attack you, so your better off that way right? Wrong.------ -- Riding Chocobos mean that you do not gain any expierience points or money from---- -- the enemies you would have fought. So when your losing battles or when you do----- -- not have enough money for equipment then you will realize that riding chocobos---- -- is not a good idea, but however if you are low on life and your magic is out and-- -- your cure supplies are gone not to mention Tents and Cabins then it would be a---- -- good idea to make it to the next town without fighting any random encounters.----- -- If you haven't noticed it, your levels are divided among your party members.------ -- Sometimes it might take a long while to gain levels, but there is an easy way to-- -- gain expierience quickly. Say you have five party members in your group and------- -- Cecil needs to reach level 99. First off you kill the other four party members---- -- besides Cecil. Hopefully Cecil is strong enough to fight on his own, then have---- -- Cecil fight any random encounters, its best if he fights opponents like the EVIL-- -- MASK or BLUE DRAGON. Here just have Cecil win, at first it might seem like a------ -- struggle, but Cecil will gain levels 5 times faster than before because his------- -- party members' expierience points are given to Cecil because his other party------ -- members did not participate in battle.-------------------------------------------- -- Finally, last but not least talk to everybody in town, you never know what-------- -- you might expect.----------------------------------------------------------------- / \ /__________________________________________________________\ |//////|__________________________________________________________|\\\\\\| |\\\\\\|__________________________________________________________|//////| \ / \ / [The Characters] "The Characters" was done by Dingo Jellybean E-mail bellybutton21@hotmail.com I (zero) just modified it for Final Fantasy 4 Hard-type. Cecil _ /________________________\ _ (_)////|________________________|////(_) \ / The Dark Knight of Baron and commander of the powerful air force the Red Wings. Baron, the most powerful nation in the world has suddenly gone evil. Cecil committing these acts of unjust crimes he wears the evil and fearsome Dark armor. He attacks the town of Mysidia forcing the people to give up the Crystal of Water, and they willingly agree but not before Cecil's men kills a few mages. Although he wields the Dark Sword and wears the Dark Armor he is in constant remorse with his past sins. Taken away from his rank as Commander of the Red Wings he sets his journey forth towards the unknown lands full of deadly monsters and mystical magic of both good and evil. _____________________ | Command Box: | |---------------------| | Fight | |---------------------| | DWave (DKinght Only)| |---------------------| | White (Paladin Only)| |---------------------| | Cover (Paladin Only)| |---------------------| | Item | |_____________________| NOTE: The DWave is somewhat of a unique attack. Although the hits are considerably weak they do however hit all on opponents. But there is a downside to this, and that's the fact that each time he uses it his HP drops down by about 8-9%. His Cover command is used to cover allies, although he still covers his allies automatically this just allows Cecil to cover the ally even though his ally's HP is nowhere near the danger zone. When Cecil's allies HP are low Cecil will automatically cover his ally from constant attack, so it is important that you equip Cecil with the best piece of armor with the highest Physical Attack defense. However you cannot prevent Cecil from Covering his allies and if his allies are in the back row Cecil will take damage like he was in the back row. Also when Cecil's HP are low he cannot cover because he is too weak to take the hits, but don't rely on Cecil to constantly protect your ally because sometimes an opponent might deal a serious blow that can immediately wound Cecil out of battle so make sure you always keep all your characters' HP out of the Danger Zone. Also Cecil cannot Cover the ally if the ally is attacked by Magic. After Cecil becomes a Paladin he loses the ability to use his DWave. When Cecil does become a Paladin his status are extremely high from those of a DKnight, for example a Level 1 Paladin status' are about 50% higher than those of a level 20 Dark Knight, just to let you know. Rosa _ /________________________\ _ (_)////|________________________|////(_) \ / The White Mage of Baron and girlfriend of Cecil. She constantly is at the side of Cecil at tough times and often tries to help cheer up her friends as well. As being Cecil's girlfriend she is captured by Golbeze and hopes that Cecil will come for her. She is also an expert at using Bow and Arrows along with using White Magic to heal her allies incase of critical or servere injury. _____________ | Command Box:| |-------------| | Fight | |-------------| | Aim | |-------------| | White | |-------------| | Item | |_____________| NOTE: Whenever you are equipped with a Bow and Arrow make sure you put the Bow on the opposite hand, for example if Rosa is Right handed (she really is :-D) put the Bow on her Left Hand and the arrows on her left hand so that your attack power can significantly increase. This goes the same for all characters liable to use a Bow and Arrow(Cecil, Rosa, Palom, Porom, and Rydia). Whenever you are equipped with both a Bow and Arrow you should always use the aim command (Rosa only). This allows Rosa to have a higher accuracy rate as well as a stronger punch towards her opponent. As you might have guessed it, buying Arrows can get pretty steap because eventually you will have to refill her Arrows as she/he run out. When all of Rosa's Arrow supply is depleted she will have to use her fists to attack or use a staff. Cain _ /________________________\ _ (_)////|________________________|////(_) \ / The Commander of the Dragoon Knights of Baron is a loyal friend of Cecil. While he trains daily to perfect his skills as a Dragoon he still seeks to be one day a true Dragoon Knight. With his kind heart he aids Cecil in his journey to the Town of Mist while losing his Command of the Dragoon Knights. He is constantly under the power of Golbez as he cannot break free of Golbez's constant curse and sometimes has a unknown love for Rosa. _____________ | Command Box:| |-------------| | Fight | |-------------| | Jump | |-------------| | Item | |_____________| NOTE: Cain's Jump attack is probably the single most strongest physical attack in the game. Although he cannot equip Holy Swords he can do serious damage with a Spear. If he is equipped with a Spear he does double the damage of his Fight command. When Cain jumps it takes awhile for him to attack his target and will consume about 1.5 turns as it would normally take to attack regularly. So if your party's HP is low and your fighting against a powerful boss and you need to kill him quick before he kills your party then Jumping is not always the best option. Rydia _ /________________________\ _ (_)////|________________________|////(_) \ / When she was just a young child Cain and Cecil accidentally brings forth a Bomb Ring that destroys her hometown. She also loses her mother because Cain and Cecil kills the Mist. Meaning that if the Monster summoned is slayed that means that the Summoner also loses his or her life. She hates Cecil and Cain for what they have done and summons a monster that creates a massive earthquake that swallows up Cain. She is also injured by the occurrence and Cecil brings her to Kaipo to help her heal her wounds. He feels that is the least he can do for all the pain and suffering he has caused her. During his overnight rest Guards from Baron were sent to kill all Summoners by order of the King of Baron(Odin). Cecil reluctantly refuses and attacks and slays the Guards and Rydia realizes that he did not mean to kill his mother or burn her town but she still doesn't forgive him. Later she will become more powerful in her Magic but her HP and Defense remains extremely low throughout the game. ________________________________________________ | Command Box: | |------------------------------------------------| | Fight | |------------------------------------------------| | White (Before visit to Land of Summon Monsters)| |------------------------------------------------| | Black | |------------------------------------------------| | Summon | |------------------------------------------------| | Item | |________________________________________________| NOTE: Rydia will lose her ability to use White Magic after you meet her again in the Underground World. First appeared in the release of Final Fantasy 3 for the Famicom Summon magic is very powerful at times and also there is no defense against it meaning that no Wall will be able to bounce back the attack. Rydia can learn the strongest attack in the game which is METEO when she is at level 60. Palom _ /________________________\ _ (_)////|________________________|////(_) \ / Being an apprentice he only knows a few spells of Black Magic. He has a boastful mouth and is extremely rude. Instructions from the Elder in Mysidia his job is to spy on Cecil to see if he can live up to his words and if he was to become evil then it was to be his job to destroy Cecil. Although the magic he has are quite elementary they should help Cecil early on. ___________________________________________________________________________ | Command Box: | |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Fight | |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Black | |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Twin(Needs his sister Porom to be alive and will take up both their turns)| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Boast | |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Item | |___________________________________________________________________________| NOTE: The Twin attack can only be done by both Palom and Porom. If one of them is critically wounded(dead) then the Magic attack will not work. The Magic attack is unpredictable but there are only two spells they can cast. Comet: 20 MP Each Hundreds of Stars come pouring in on opponents doing critical damage. This attack hits all opponents and it cannot be reflected. Each single hit is stronger than that of Flare and also there is a 1-in-4 chance of this being cast. Flare: 10 MP Each A burst of Nuclear Energy is exploded towards an opponent doing excellent damage. This attack can be reflected however and the single hit is less than a single hit of Comet. The Boast command is used to raise his Magic Power, but this only works during battle. However it raises his Magic power by very little and will need to be used several times before you see any significant results. Porom _ /________________________\ _ (_)////|________________________|////(_) \ / Also being an apprentice she only knows a few spells of White Magic. Just like Palom she was intructed by the Elder to spy on Cecil and if Cecil was to become evil she was ordered to destroy Cecil because of his past sins. She is very polite and often has to remind her brother to behave and although she only knows elemental White Magic she can aid her party by using healing and curing spells that should help Cecil early on. ____________________________________________________________________________ | Command Box: | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Fight | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | White | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Twin(Needs her brother Palom to be alive and will take up both their turns)| |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Tears | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Item | |____________________________________________________________________________| NOTE: The Twin attack can only be done by both Palom and Porom. If one of them is critically wounded(dead) then the Magic attack will not work. The Magic attack is unpredictable but there are only two spells they can cast. Comet: 20 MP Each Hundreds of Stars come pouring in on opponents doing critical damage. This attack hits all opponents and it cannot be reflected. Each single hit is stronger than that of Flare and also there is a 1-in-4 chance of this being cast. Flare: 10 MP Each A burst of Nuclear Energy is exploded towards an opponent doing excellent damage. This attack can be reflected however and the single hit is less than a single hit of Comet. The Tears command is use to run easier. Tellah _ /________________________\ _ (_)////|________________________|////(_) \ / The legendary Sage of Mysidia swears revenge on the death of his beloved Daughter Anna. At first he blames and attacks Edward and runs off on his own after Anna's last words. Later after his visit on Mt.Ordeals he realizes who the real threat is and who killed his daughter, Golbeze. While at first he only knows basic Black and White magic, but after his encounter with Mt. Ordeals he remembers all the lost magic, but his MP still remains low limiting his uses of high power magic. He also remembers Meteo, and when Meteo is unsealed that means the age of Apocaplypse is near. Also he cannot use Meteo because his MP is too low to cast it. __________________________________ | Command Box: | |----------------------------------| | Fight | |----------------------------------| | White | |----------------------------------| | Black | |----------------------------------| | Remember (Lost after Mt. Ordeals)| |----------------------------------| | Item | |__________________________________| NOTE: After Tellah's encounter with Mt. Ordeals his White and Black magic level will be significantly higher so now he can cast hard hitting spells like Virus or Fire3. Gilbert _ /________________________\ _ (_)////|________________________|////(_) \ / The Bard of Damcyan is a complete coward. He cares deeply for Anna as he runs off with Anna towards the castle of Damcyan but however their luck runs out as the Red Wings of Baron attack and demolish the castle of Damcyan and Anna as well is fatally injured. After Anna's death Gilbert joins and helps Cecil find the sunlight to help cure Rosa's high fever. ______________________ | Command Box: | |----------------------| | Fight | |----------------------| | Sing | |----------------------| | Hide | |----------------------| | Show(after Hide only)| |----------------------| | Heal | |----------------------| | Item | |______________________| NOTE: When you use the Sing command the special added effect of the Harp Gilbert is equipped with will try and negatively effect his opponent. Like using negative status effects like Confuse or Sleep. When Gilbert's HP is low he will automatically Hide because like the coward that he is when he is near fatal he will run and hide. But you can still command him but the only command he can use is Show, he will appear in battle however but then quickly run away. Also he will still recive expierience points even though he did not participate in battle, pretty cheap huh! Gilbert's Heal command is not really all that great. At first I thought he can just do it anytime he wants but it will cost you one of your Keal Potions, but he is the only one who can spread potions. The command SING can only be used by Gilbert, Gilbert will sing out a random tune that will have a status effect on the opponent, either being CHARM, SLEEP, MUTE, or CURSE. However it will take a few tries for Gilbert to be successful, and this also is not an attack and will not damage opponents. Cid _ /________________________\ _ (_)////|________________________|////(_) \ / The chief engineer of Baron is the master technician behind the designs and constructions of the Red Wings' air force. However Cid is always optimistic and did not know that his ships were being used for war. He decides he help out the party after he had found out about his ships being used as weapons he had especially designed a high class airship hidden from the King of Baron. Later after sacrificing himself in the underworld he is treated by the Dwarves and helps out the party with enhancements towards the Falchon. ______________ | Command Box: | |--------------| | Fight | |--------------| | Peep | |--------------| | Item | |______________| NOTE: Cid's Peep command allows him to see the enemies' HP or MP and also displays the enemies' weakness if there is one. Also he cannot see bosses' HP and this will not cost Cid any Magic points. Yang _ /________________________\ _ (_)////|________________________|////(_) \ / The expert Monk martial artist is the prince of Fabul with powerful attacks that can easily sway battles in the party's direction. The party first encounters Yang during their trip to Mt. Hobs as Yang was suddenly attacked by Golbeze's minions. Yang easily took care of the minions but the Commander that was leading the minions did not look like he would be taken down easily, but that's when the party decided to help. With Yang's numerous abilities and his lethal attacks its always a good option to keep him in the front rows. _____________ | Command Box:| |-------------| | Fight | |-------------| | Build | |-------------| | Kick | |-------------| | Endur | |-------------| | Item | |_____________| NOTE: Don't bother using the Build Command with Yang. It takes up three turns for him to do an attack that does equal damage as if he wasn't using the Build command. However it does raise your chance of doubling your attack power, but only if you lucky and its pretty rare if that ever happens. Also don't bother using the Endur command either. Although it says his defense is raised it is only raised by one point each time and it takes two turns for him to use it and will leave him open to attack. Also his Kick command will hit all enemies but his overall attack power will be averaged depending on how many enemies there are, so each hit will not result in his normal attack power, so unless there are three or more opponents just use Yang's fight command instead. FuuSuuYa _ /________________________\ _ (_)////|________________________|////(_) \ / The Lunarian of the moon possesses powerful magic that can send chills down anyone's spine. He will agree to help Cecil when they meet him on the moon and he will break Golbeze out of the mysterious mind control. He is kind hearted and is a dependable character that you can rely on. _____________ | Command Box:| |-------------| | Fight | |-------------| | White | |-------------| | Black | |-------------| | Item | |_____________| NOTE: FuuSuuYa knows every WHITE and BLACK magic in the book when you acquire him. Edge _ /________________________\ _ (_)////|________________________|////(_) \ / The prince of Eblan, with an annoying ego he agrees to help the party after the party meets him in the underworld after his defeat at the hands of Rubicant, the fiend of fire. Also his defense rating is not as high as you would like it as a fighter, but he has the ability to equip two swords and can use your weapons as throwing objects. _____________ | Command Box:| |-------------| | Fight | |-------------| | Ninjitsu | |-------------| | Sneak | |-------------| | Throw | |-------------| | Item | |_____________| NOTE: His Ninjitsu command allows him to use 6 types of Magic. He has three elemental spells of Water, Fire, and Lightning, but basically its Water2.5, Fire2.5, and Lit2.5 because the damage done is between a level 2 magic attack and a level 3 magic attack. Also his Smoke command is used to run from battles except of course boss battles. At first it might not seem useful because you can easily run away from enemies, but enemies like EVIL MASK, Behemoth, or Red Dragons you cannot run away from except with the use of Smoke. His Image magic is more of an effect magic. However it will not protect him against magic attacks as you can expect. His Sneak command allows him to steal items from opponents, but he will rarely be successful at stealing and sometimes if he misses he will lose very little HP like about 1-5 HP which should not bother you. His Throw command allows him to throw your weapons at him except for Rods, Staffs, Bows, Arrows, and Whips. So it might be a good idea not to sell some of your more powerful weapons and they should be saved when your fight against hard bosses, and also most of the weapons he throw causes critical hits! / \ /__________________________________________________________\ |//////|__________________________________________________________|\\\\\\| |\\\\\\|__________________________________________________________|//////| \ / \ / [Why name Final Fantasy 4, to 2] As most people know, Final Fantasy 4 was called Final Fantasy 2 in U.S. Also Final Fantasy 6 was called Final Fantasy 3 in the U.S. Why? some ask... well, after playing all the Final Fantasy games out there I think I have the answer to that question. But first here is a little chart to show what Japan Final Fantasy fan have and what the U.S Final Fantasy fan have.

Now as you look at the U.S. Final Fantasy games they try to make it a straight line up, they even got it to 1 to 3 but mess up on Final Fantasy 7. / \ /__________________________________________________________\ |//////|__________________________________________________________|\\\\\\| |\\\\\\|__________________________________________________________|//////| \ / \ / [Part 1 - Walkthrough] The following is Basic Walkthrough for Final Fantasy IV. There are level recommendations for each area, as well as boss strategies and who is in the front row and back row. Note: The resin why I (zero) took off the high level recommend is because Cecil will go back to level 1 and Cain will leave and come back at a higher level latter and all the others are the same they leave and come back stronger.

Cecil shows distain of how he does not like to harm the innocent, and even begins to question the king's honor. The king, in rage, decides to dethrone Cecil as commander of the Red Wings. Cain tries to defend him, but has the same fate as Cecil: kill the Phantom Beasts. King Baron gives Cecil a Bomb Ring to courier to the Town of Myst. Here you must go to your room to sleep, but before you do that get the three treasures from the guard. Now go to Town of Baron. To buy some item.

There are plenty of items to pick up, so take the time to do so. Along the way, there will be messages of someone demanding that Cecil and Cain go back. Ignore her and keep proceeding. However, finally, you will have to fight a dragon. (Rydia's mom) Tip: Use Cain jump to kill the enemy here easily. *BOSS FIGHT*: Mist Dragon (Rydia's mom) HP: 465 Weaknesses: None The Mist Dragon is an easy boss that most anyone can defeat. First off, have Cain always Jump, except once which I will explain later. Have Cecil constantly using conventional attacks on the Mist Dragon. When it turns into a mist, simply stand or guard. If you attack during this time, the Mist Dragon will counter. This is when no one should attack during the battle. Whenever it's out of that form, use the strategies given. Recommended Level: Cecil (10-11), Cain (10-11). Recommended Equipment: Should already be equip.

So, go to the village. The Bomb Ring will glow and destroys the town. Cain and Cecil goes to Rydia and her mom, Rydia will then say "Mom's dragon die, so she did too". Cain and Cecil will conflict briefly, and then you must try to force the little girl to come with you. Just stand there and guard. The little girl will summon Titan.After the sequence, you will be out on the overworld map. Cain is now gone and Rydia is hurt, so you can't use her, yet.

Golbeze will take the Crystal and kidnap Rosa. After all the sequences, head to the Inn, and you will automatically get a free night. The next day, explore the castle, take the treasures.

Ordeals _ /________________________\ _ (_)////|________________________|////(_) \ / Welcome to Mt. Ordeals, where your test of a true warrior will take place. There is nothing really hard about this place, since it IS fairly linear. However, you should collect treasures and really try to gain some level ups with Palom and Porom. Their Hp are not high at all, and they can easily be defeated by players good enough. Gain their Hp so they won't DIE as soon as someone attacks them. Anyway, as you proceed, Tella will join your party, since he was drawn to the mountain in search of Meteo. Once Tella join, go back to Town of Mysadia and buy the best equipment for Tella (Palom and Porom, if haven't already). If you want to, you can also buy a set of Paladin equipment for Cecil for latter use. On the way, you shouldn't try to gain TOO many levels with Cecil, since you'll be busted down to Level 1 again when he becomes a Paladin. So, you will soon encounter a Save Point. SAVE! Now, go on the bridge and you will have to fight Scarmiglione. Tip, if you are fighting a dead enemy, and Cecil is still a DKnight, go to Item and unequip his sword. His hand is stronger then his dark sword on dead enemy. *BOSS FIGHT*: Scarmiglione Scarmiglione is an easy boss, even with all his minions. First off, have Palom and Porom use their twin attacks. Next, have Tella use any Fire spell on the enemies. Have Cecil use his good `ol attacks. After he dies with his minions, go back to the Save Point, use a Tent and Save. As you are getting off the bridge you will be confronted again by Scarmiglione, this time in a zombie-like form. *BOSS FIGHT*: Scarmiglione 2 Well, this fight is a harder version of the original fight. Have Tella use his best magic, and heal, have the twins Twin, and have Cecil attack. You really have to watch your Hp, they can drop if you're not careful. After the battle, heal Cecil and unequip everything he has, and walk into the "structure". Watch the show and prepare for the hardest battle in the whole game! (sarcasm) Note:Before battle go to menu and press A on Change you should now have two back row and three Front row. When you go in battle with Scarmiglion 2, you will be attack form the back. *BOSS FIGHT*: Dark Knight Cecil This is really simple. Just keep on guarding and the battle will end on it's own. Watch the show, then exit Mt. Ordeals. Make sure you finish a battle before you leave, Cecil will gain about 6 levels after one fight! Also equip, Cecil with the Paladin equipment you should have. Recommended Levels: Cecil (19-21, Paladin), Palom (7-12), Porom (7-12), Tella (24). _____________________ | Front Row|Back Row | |---------------------| | |Palom | | Cecil| | | |Tella | | NoBody| | | |Porom | |__________|__________| Note, go to menu and hit A on Change to get 3 Back row and 2 Front Row Don't fret..I'll update this guide as soon as possible. / \ /__________________________________________________________\ |//////|__________________________________________________________|\\\\\\| |\\\\\\|__________________________________________________________|//////| \ / \ / [Part 2 - Final Party] Recommended Levels: Cecil (60 and up) Rosa (60 and up) Cain (60 and up) Rydia (60 and up) Edge (60 and up) Your final party is _____________________ | Front Row|Back Row | |---------------------| | Ceci| | | |Rosa | | Cain| | | |Rydia | | Edge| | |__________|__________| ***Best Equipment*** ____________________________________________________ | | Cecil | Rosa | Cain | Rydia | Edge | | -----------------------|--------|--------|--------| | RHand|Ragnarok| Artemis| Dragon| Dragon|Masamune| | -----------------------|--------|--------|--------| | LHand| Crystal| Artemis| Holy| None|Masamune| | -----------------------|--------|--------|--------| | Head| Glass| Glass| Glass| Glass| Glass| | -----------------------|--------|--------|--------| | Body| Adamant| Menerva| Dragon| Menerva| Genji| | -----------------------|--------|--------|--------| | Arms| Cystal| Crystal| Crystal| Crystal| Crystal| |_______|________|________|________|________|________| ****Note on the weapons:**** Cecil: In LHand, Crystal is the Crystal Shield.
