Date: Sat, 24 Jul 1999 15:40:08 EDT UPDATE Version 3.0 to Breath of Fire 2 FAQ by Shadow9156 (It's been almost 3 years...) BOF 2 FAQ Sheet _____________________________________________________________ Top Ten Interesting Facts 1.) What is the easiest way to beat Barubary? There are two options. You can fight him alone, then he has about 4,000hp, or you can fight him with the group and he has about 5,000hp. With the Hero, cast G Dragon. Bring your Ap up, then cast it again. Insert healings between the attacks whenever needed. With the group, use HERO,KATT (Morphed), BLEU, NINA (Morphed). Have the hero follow the pattern above. Have Katt Keep. Have Bleu cast Missile. Have Nina do Bolt X. Heal intermittently. Good Luck! 2.) How do I easily beat the monsters on Monster Island? There are four different monsters on Monster Island. Here is how to beat them. Big Gonghead: Bow's Shot Big Sludge: Death Chorking: A damaging spell from a magical item. A. Sludge: The Gold dragon will cool their jets... 3.) Where are the Shamans? Below is a list of the shamans, and where to find them. Fire: With Granny in Captain Water: In Nimfu's tower Wind: In the Sky Tower Earth: In Farmtown after blowing up Evrai, and donating 2,000gp at the Namanda Shrine before blowing up Evrai. Holy: In the dungeon of Bando after blowing up Evrai. Devil: In the left gate of Infinity 4.) What are the two secret spells? The two secret spells are Chop-Chop, and the Boombada spell. Chop-Chop is found if you go to the cook in the Black Cat restaurant before going to Nimfu's tower. It does less than 100dmg to all enemies on the screen. The second spell, Boombada halves all of the enemies hp. If you play the bells correctly in the Shrine of Namanda, you will receive it. 5.) Where is the Charm Rod? This one is pretty easy. It is in the dresser in the inn near Evrai. 6.) Where is the Empire Sword and the Life Armor? The Empire Sword is in a treasure chest in a fishing hole. If you follow the mountain near Township a ways, with the bird, and land to fight, the fishing spot will show. It is in sight of Township. The Life Armor is in a treasure chest in a fishing spot near Gate. It is obvious. 7.) How do I get infinite Money? There is no infinite money. But there is a very good alternative. Buy three condition up's and one shrimp. This costs 3,020gp. Take them to the cook in Township. He will cook them into Gold Bars. The two gold bars are each worth 6,000. Each time you do this you get 8,980gp profit. 8.) Where is the second set of Dragon Powers? The second set of Dragon Powers is near Simafort. Transform Jean into a frog and take him to the top of the waterfall, then attempt to ride it down. you will land in a cave with a Socklet Ar, and the man gives you the second set of Dragon Powers. 9.) How do I complete the last part of getting the Afini spell? When he asks who you want to sacrifice, INSIST that you would sacrifice your own life for the spell. You have to prove that power isn't more valuable than your friends. 10.) How can I make Township fly? In the basement of Evrai, when you fight the eyes, don't kill the old man. He is the first part. The second part is to go to Guntz and find the secret room in the back building. There is a girl called Echichi. Bring her to the well in Township. Then Ganer will power the machine. _____________________________________________________________ Shaman Merge Chart The shaman chart contains no information of status change because there are to many variables with the different levels.

There is a third secret spell for Nina. It has to do with the special rock on Monster Island. 2.) There is a Township person called Milt. He is located somewhere before Captain. 3.) There is a secret use for the JahAR. 4.) If you let an item sit on the hunting screen, it will turn into something else besides a roast, or an egg. 5.) There is a Spark Shaman in Windia. 6.) There is an Ice Shaman in the Witches Tower. Any other rumors would be appreciated if sent by mail. ____________________________________________________________ Cooking 3 HelpBl = 1 Extract 2 Worm = 1 Urchin 2 Extract = 1 Lfpl 2 Extract + 1 Urchin + 1 Worm = 2 Lfpl 2 Cureal + 1 HelpBl + 1 Lfpl = Dinker 2 Dinker + 2 Charcoal = Biscut 2 Cureal + 1 HelpBl + 1 F.

In the previous version, Unconfirmed Rumor #4 contained information about an HP up given to the party at the Wildcat restaurant. Apparently, he gives chopchop to you if you are nice to him by following most of the signs and forgiving him. However if you don't make him happy enough, he gives an HP raise instead: a meal that raises team's HP by 5-10. ________________________________________________________________________ Old "Just In's" 1.) There is an egg. It can be won from killing birds (NOT Beaks) 2.) There is a DmnBr. I don't know where to find it, but I saw it on my friends player. 3.) There is an item called the MEOW staff. It can be won in infinity and ups attack over 100pts!! 4.) There is an item called the ThunderST which (I Think) Does S. Boom when used as an item. _______________________________________________________________________ Spells "--" under Level means that the spell is not learned by going up levels. Spells that are used by more than one person are listed seperately.

BUT I will put in codes that I deem interesting, or fun. 1.) FB0C-7D64 ------- This code enables you to walk on water! 2.) 55E5-54D6 ------- This code makes monsters flash when they die! ________________________________________________________________________ FAQ History Version 1.0 - This was one of the FIRST BOF2 Faq's ever.

This FAQ was mostly compiled by myself with a little aid from various FAQ's. I got the spell section from an FAQ by ErgGibbon, and PalmJB@ aol.com provided Just In #2. The Monster List has been updated again. Don't forget to read the section of FAQ History! NOTE: This is the last BOF2 Faq I will be doing. I believe that everything that there is to discover, has been discovered. Until the next time, Shadow9156@aol.com
