Lufia - The Legend Returns - Platform: Gameboy Color Delete saved game ----------------- Hold Start while powering on the Game Boy Color. Answer "Yes" at the prompt to delete your saved game data. Hint: Saving the game --------------------- When you save a game, you do not have to find a church or symbol. Press Select to go to your map, then save it in the field log. When the screen goes blank, turn off your Game Boy Color. The data is now saved. When you want to play again, turn on the Game Boy Color on, select "Resume" and you begin at the place you saved. Hint: Easy level up ------------------- Answer the question from the green blob at the end of the Ancient Cave with "Nothing", then defeat the first enemy you meet outside. Your level will now be four to five times higher. Hint: Getting new items in Ancient Cave ---------------------------------------- Go to the Ancient Cave. Every five or ten floors, you will meet an old man who sells items that are just in your price range. Exit his menu, then go back. He will have new items for sale based on your new income. To get powerful equipment after Amon, use your ship to get to Gulduck. Save the game, then go to the ladder above the town. Enter the Ancient Cave and look for blue treasure chests until you get to the 100th level. Then, continue up to the 200th level and use the Providence to escape. Hint: Shops ----------- In every shop with a door behind the shopkeeper, you can go behind the building and get in through that door by pressing A. This allows you to get the items in the treasure chests. Also in Majari, if you enter through the back door, talk to the innkeeper and he will let you stay for free. Hint: Secret items ------------------ In most towns, the shopkeepers will sell you secret items if you go in through the back way. Hint: Daos Ring --------------- Defeat Daos for the third time. Hint: Daos Stone ---------------- Defeat Daos in your second battle for three rounds. Hint: Dragon Scale armor ------------------------ Defeat the older Ancient (A.) Dragon, to get a Dragon Scale armor. This is an excellent armor for Wain. It is the best you can get in the game for awhile. Hint: Gades Bracelet and Gades Blade ------------------------------------ Defeat Gades the first time to get a Gades Bracelet, which boost your attack by 100 and defense by 200. This is very helpful throughout the game because it can be used in the Ancient Cave. If you defeat him a second time, you will get a Gades Blade. Note: You must be at least at level 20. This is very hard to obtain but will help in the long run. Hint: Terror Armor ------------------ Defeat Daos in your first battle for three rounds. Hint: Defeating the Egg Dragon ------------------------------ Use a potion on the Egg Dragon. Your next attacker will kill him in one hit. After you kill the Egg Dragon, you will get 60,000 experience points, money, and 61,963 LP. It is the best way to level up on LP and levels. Hint: Defeating Gades --------------------- Note: This trick works on both the first and second encounters. Make sure you have the IP Skill Head Crush, and at least 15 Hi Bombs. Use Head Crush on your first turn, then follow it with Hi Bombs using other characters. Do not heal because Gades' attacks will kill you with one blow.
