Reveal hidden contents I have found some at the hot spring after a couple of scenes and a 900,000 Gald investment. And at the island where you can play poker and stuff. By cleaning the warehouses you get one as well. Maybe I have some others, too. There are more but I don't know where and how to get them. Reveal hidden contents I'm trying to get 5 Light Star Gems now in order to synthesise the Hyper Armor. But the drop rate is extremely low as it seems...even with the Hunter's Monocle it took a lot of battles to get 5 of these gems for the Last Fencer. I still need to finish grade farming. =( But it is so boring. Edited July 29, 2009 by drahkon

It's not that bad if you've got Reveal hidden contents Rita with a Wonder Symbol equipped, others with as many Dice/Blue Dice as you have, on Hard (or Unknown) difficulty; Spell End, OL Boost, Light magic, Minimum Damage skills. Overlimit level 3, Tidal wave, repeat You might already be doing this, but you can get ~100 grade per minute. I'd still do it in a few short session, rather than one long slog, though.

Yep, that's what I'm doing. I can't do more than one battle in one session, though. Hearing Rita say "Blah blah blah...TIDAL WAVE!!!" about 8 billiontrillion times makes me nervous, sick and completely crazy. Edited July 29, 2009 by drahkon
Tales Posted July 29, 2009 Posted July 29, 2009 (edited) For grade farming, I used Risk Ring with Overlimit level 1. Can't remember why, but I preferred that method to the Wonder Symbol one. Reveal hidden contents is Estelle's from 100-man at the Colosseum, Rita's *give 60 000 000 damage*(Aspio or Halure late in the story) and Judith's Into the Sky costume(1000 FS with at leat 200 Blue FS then talk to dragon boy in Myorzo), and Karol's golden armor(visit Keiv Moc late in the story) Edited July 29, 2009 by Tales

Stocka Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I got this spontaneously the other day when I saw it at £19.99 on shopto and was craving a new game after going 3 or 4 months without playing any videogames. It's awesome!! very much like Symphonia.

S.C.G Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 So I'm attempting to get all seven fell arms before completing the game for the first time, I have the first but in order to progress I need to find... Reveal hidden contents The Four Spirits Can anyone help on where to find them?

Reveal hidden contents The Four Spirits Can anyone help on where to find them? Where have you heard that? Finding them is key story point - you can't miss them and the game guides you pretty clearly on where to go. I won't say more for now to avoid spoilers, but post again if you'd like more detail.

Hmm I don't want any spoilers but if that's the case then I can't be at the end yet and I thought that I might be, atm I am currently... Reveal hidden contents Shrine of Zaude So I'm guessing there is more after that... if so then that's a good thing, I just figured that I might be near the end because I've now well over 50 hours into it.

There's a lot more left. Once you're done with that area, you've completed part 2 of the game - there are three parts in all. Admittedly, the third part is shorter than the other two, but you've probably got another good 10-15 hours (at least) if you don't rush it. If you try to do all the side quests, that can go up hugely, as the endgame opens up quite a lot more of them. Edited August 14, 2009 by Illusionary Remove potential spoiler

Excellent! thanks for that, I'm in no hurry so it looks like it could well even be longer for me lol I've just been doing various sidequests today and settling scores with the Giganto monsters that I decided to let live for a while longer - read as : they pwned me the first time round... >_> - but I will carry on with the main quest for a bit now I think.
CooInTheZoo Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Sorry to wake up a sleeping thread, but I got the game the other day and played the first 2 hours today. Really enjoying it so far, but how long till the storyline kicks up a gear? I'm finding it hard to care about any of the characters and their motives at the moment. This might be the first RPG I've actually enjoyed levelling up in.
KKOB Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 I'm really looking forward to the PS3 release Wooo!

Wasn't that just a review of the game as a whole rather than just of the enhanced PS3 version? As far as I can see he moans about chat bubbles and the lack of full voice acting, something the PS3 version has :/ What's new in the PS3 version compared to the 360 one: Reveal hidden contents Additional Content * Full voice acting * Tie-ins with Tales of Vesperia: The First Strike[14] * New playable character (Patty Fleur) * Flynn as a fully customizable, playable character * Repede and Flynn as selectable on-screen avatars * New cutscenes * New subplots * New main game quests * New sidequests * New songs * New towns * Remodeled towns * New dungeons * New bosses (including the Sword Dancer) * Boss fight replays at Nam Cobanda Isle (in an area called the Door of Memories) * New Overlimit Levels 5 and 6[15] * New Hi Ougi/Mystic Artes (including a dual Mystic Arte with Yuri and Flynn) * New Artes * New Skills * New Equipment * A Key Item known as the "Artes Ball," which allows characters to assign up to 8 Artes to the left stick, and 8 Arte Shortcuts to the right stick for a new maximum of 16 Artes. * New Costumes (Including costumes based on other Tales characters and Sgt. Frog[16]) * New Skits * A scene-skip feature * Connectivity with Tales of VS[17] Edited August 30, 2009 by KKOB
BeerMonkey Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 im FINALLY! getting this from lovefilm tomorrow cant wait to play it at long last
Eddage Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 When is the PS3 version released? Cause I was thinking of picking it up for the 360 but the extra stuff does sound mighty tempting (especially the full voice acting, one thing that REALLY annoyed me about Tales of Symphonia).
CooInTheZoo Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 Woah. Untill now I've found the battles fairly easy, but that Dragon thing on Ehmead Hill... I must have used up 10 gels and 4 life bottles fighting it. Level 16. Was I the only one to struggle?
Emerald Emblem Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 Yeah, that was the boss in the trial no-one could beat, he's no easier in the main game, though I Game overed only once but Estelle die right as i dealt the finishing blow.
KKOB Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 I assume this game is man enough to allow me to swap between japanese and english voice acting, riiiiiiiight?
Erin14 Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 ^are you sure dont get your hopes up and then when 2010 comes you will be sad lolz.
