Grandship

Natural Talents + Ninja isn't really the best combination, due to hands being two-handed weapons.

Yeah, well, I did't have a good pair of daggers on me, and I'm not sure where to find the best equipment....

Still, it's not like I needed to attack. He literally dodged and countered everything, plus, since I leveled up the Red Mage for a bit, he also got a free bp every time he dodged.

Best equipment should either be in Eternia, on Grandship, or from the Adventurer, IIRC.

What about those blue chests [spoiltext]that sage Yulyana left all over the place[/spoiltext] (found that spoilery bit out this morning before I went to work)?

Also, what's a good level to be at before going into the light (since, I'm assuming, there's no coming back after I go through)?

New Game+ exclusive.

Don't know what a good level would be, but if you fought all the battles you ran into you should be fine.

Huh, so level 11 is the max for the village shops. *just maxed out his village*

HahahahahaAHAhahahaahhaahahahaHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHA~!!!!!

I love seeing people's reactions to that.

Spoiler:

Have fun

Incidentally, I lied about the blue chests being NG+ exclusive!

...Well, for a certain value of "New Game+".

Soooo....what's with all the blue marks on the map? Can I re-fight all the asterisk holders or something?

Also, having all the magic is good... Wasn't sure if I'd ever find Holy and Dark.

Yep. All of the asterisk holders can be fought again. They're completely optional, though; you just need to beat the four fiends again.

Though I highly recommend battling them during Chapter 7. You can Steal some real sweet gear from them.

That and some of the later ones can be funny/character building
