Of all the games I enjoy, Dark Cloud seems to be the one that is most
lacking in a complete, coherent guide. That's what this is for, of course.
Hopefully, it will be helpful to somebody besides myself.

Frequently Asked Questions [PFAQ]
==--
These questions get asked a lot. If you just have a passing question,
odds are that it's answered here.
Q. Do I need to play the first Dark Cloud to understand this one?
A. The two are not very close at all. Though a few references are made
between the games, you don't need to play DC1 to understand DC2 in any way.
Q. What's changed from Dark Cloud 1?
A. The thirst meter was removed, for starters. Broken weapons no longer
simply dissappear. There is no duel system. Georama is more flexible and
open-ended, allowing you to decide exactly what buildings are put where in
it. The inventory is much larger, and there are no storage facilities for
excess items. There are only two playable characters, each with a second
form, making for four possible ways to battle. There are no character-
specific dungeon puzzles. There are only 3 types of Limited Zones, which
are referred to as Seals now (Max only, Monica only, no healing). Those
are the most significant gameplay changes.
Q. How long is this game?
A. That depends on how you play it. If you really rush and go through the
game at top speed, you could win in under 30 hours (especially if you chose
to skip all cutscenes). But odds are that the game will take closer to 60
hours to complete, possibly more if you branch out and explore the game's
minigames and sidequests.
Q. The game locked up! The screen's white and says Now Loading! Now what?
A. Try pressing L3 and R3. If, after a few tries, that doesn't work,
reset the system and redo Battle with Rats (this bug only happens when
entering the level Ghost in the Channel).
Q. How do I choose what element my weapon uses?
A. You don't, because you don't need to. Your weapon attacks with each and
every element on it simultaneously. Since no enemy absorbs any element,
this means that you can only benefit from adding more elements to your
weapon, in the long run.
Q. How do I recruit people?
A. First, get the Geostone from the level Legendary Killer Snake. Next, go
to Sindain and enter Carpenterion with Select. Press Triangle to bring up
the Carpenterion controls. Press O to get out of this menu once the
Geostone(s) download, then press Select to return to the ground. After the
short cutscene, you can recruit Gordon, and once you've recruited him, you
can recruit the rest.
Q. I reached the end of Rainbow Butterfly Wood, but where's the boss?
A. Finish up as much Georama work as you can in Sindain, then visit Jurak a
few times. The story sequences will explain what you need to do. Also, if
you've skipped any Geostones, go back and get them, and work on the Georama
until you've fulfilled every known requirement. You cannot skip the
Georama aspect of this game.
Q. How do I go down the star paths in the dungeons?
A. You can't, until chapter 6. You wouldn't want to until then, anyway;
the enemies on those paths are very powerful.
Q. What are the best weapons for Max and Monica?
A. That depends on your tactics. For ranged weapons, the best for Max is
Supernova, and the best for Monica is Five-Star Armlet. For melee weapons,
Max's LEGEND is best for sheer power, while Grade Zero is best for speed.
Monica's Island King is the most powerful sword, but Dark Cloud has better
speed, as does Griffon Fork.
Q. How should I power up weapons?
A. The best way to do so and retain your sanity is to only Synth other
weapons onto your main weapon. Use the weapons you get in dungeons as
fodder to power them up, by getting those weapons to +5, powering up the
stats you're most interested in, then Synthesizing them onto your main
weapon itself.
Q. Where can I get a lot of Gilda?
A. There's a few ways to go about this. If you're patient, you can put
Need in the party (he gives a 20% Gilda bonus when fighting enemies). If
you want cash quickly, you can have Erik make you 6 Improved Bombs, and
then sell them. Later, you can invent and sell Turkeys (which cost 90
Gilda to build and sell for 230 Gilda). Once you've recruited Olivie, you
can use the Lure glitch to get as much money as you want. For info on the
Lure glitch, see the Glitches and Exploits section. One last means of
making Gilda, if you're in a later chapter and have used the Ridepod
exclusively, is to buy and sell Samurai Arms from Cedric with the excess
Exp that Steve as accrued.
Q. Where can I get lures?
A. In chapter 4, after Finny Frenzy is announced, talk to Olivie (she's in
the square near City Hall). Enter and win the beginners class Finny
Frenzy (you have to get first place, obviously), and talk to her again.
She sells lures.
Q. What's the reward for collecting medals, anyway?
A. You can trade them with Mayor Need for various clothing items and Name-
Change Tickets. That's it, though.
Q. What are Max and Monica's maximum stats?
A. HP can go up to 255, though if you distribute HP evenly, they'll max out
at 248 each. There's enough defense items in the game to give each 112
defense, but you cannot split those points between them as you like.
Q. Why are Monster Transformations so weak?
A. No idea. They were probably a last-minute addition that they didn't
bother to work the kinks out of. Whatever the case, the transformations
are never worth the trouble of mastering. Just get a Gemron up to level 51
or so, and you should be able to handle all of the Monster Transformation
only clear goals.
Q. Do monster badges have to be gotten from specific enemies?
A. No, any variant of a given enemy will do. So you could, for example,
get a Beast badge from a Beach Rat or Castle Eater, as well as a Sewer Rat.
Q. What's the easiest way to get through the game?
A. Focus on using the Ridepod exclusively, upgrading its core and parts on
a regular basis. You'll want to invent most of the stuff it uses yourself,
since Cedric doesn't sell most of the useful stuff. Doing this, you can
reach the end of the game within 30 hours, no problem.

II. Walkthrough
=-=-=
First, a brief explanation of the system used here. Each chapter has an
overview (except for the prologue, of course), which lists the goals of the
chapter, as well as providing a checklist for things you can do during the
chapter (such as photography, inventions, stat power-ups, etc.). The rest
of the chapter is divided up into dungeon level overviews and interludes,
periods of non-dungeon exploration where you advance the plot or work on
the Georama for the area.
Prologue ~ A Night at the Circus [WPROLOGUE]
==--
After you've selected an outfit for Max (and if you're on a replay, for
Monica), the game will shift to Monica, and you'll have to fight a battle.
Now is your chance to learn about Monica's cheapest move, her charged sword
strike. Just hold down X until she glows slightly, then unleash it on the
nearest enemy. It knocks down lighter enemies (such as the ones you're
fighting), and you can spam it (ie. use it constantly) without penalty. Do
so until the soldiers are dead, and the story will continue for a while.
Eventually, you'll be in control of Max. Go to the save point and save, if
you wish, then go to the lower level of Cedric's shop, and down into the
bedroom section on the lower right. Grab the tool, then return to the
previous area and choose to work on the vaccuum cleaner on the table.
Another brief story sequence, and you'll be outside the circus tent. Save
if you wish, then go present your ticket to the clown by pressing Square
and selecting it. After this, go around and talk to people until the story
continues. Once this part is over, go present your ticket again (save
before you do, if you'd like). Some more story sequences, then you'll be
facing off a few Killer Clowns. If you'd like, you can use Max's power
attack on them like you used Monica's. Unfortunately, Max's isn't nearly
as easy to use effectively. Regardless, these guys are cake. Once they're
beaten, yet another story sequence will take place, and you'll be in the
sewers. Save if you want, then talk to Donny. Chapter 1 will officially
open, and you'll be sent to the first dungeon.
Chapter 1 ~ To the Outside World [WCHAPTER1]
==--
Chapter 1 Overview [C1OVER]
--==
This is the shortest chapter of the game, naturally. There's no Georama
yet, so the goals are more limited. There is, however, a whole lot of
photography you can partake in.

To the Outside World [C1OUTSIDE]
--==
NOTE: Any time a * is listed after a monster's name, one of the monsters of
that type for the given dungeon floor has the gate key.
Medals:
Time Attack: 2:35
Spheda Prize: Treasure Chest Key x2
Clear Goal: Complete without healing
Enemies:
Clown 6
Froggy 6
Sewer Rat* 6
Totals: 108 ABS, 108 Gilda
After a brief story sequence, you'll be on your way into the first floor
of the dungeon. No walkthrough is possible, since dungeon floors are
randomly generated, but I will explain the basics of dungeon exploration
here. Your goal is to find the gate key, which one of the enemies on each
floor holds. Once you have that, you can go to the next floor. Defeating
all enemies on a floor is not required, however, to progress to the next
floor. Also, treasure chests have random contents, but every floor has
chests with a map and Magic Crystal in it. The map is self-explanatory,
and the Magic Crystal shows you where all chests and enemies are on the
map. Very handy. You may occasionally find a blocked-off area of a
dungeon. To get past these barriers, you need a second form of gate key,
which is found in chests. Use this special dungeon key to access the
blocked-off areas.
Battle with Rats [C1RATS]

There's a brief story sequence before you start this one.
Interlude ~ Palm Brinks Photo Spree [C1PHOTOS]
--==
After you enter the Channel Pump Room, there will be another story
sequence. Just wait out the battle, avoiding Linda, until the story takes
over again. Pretty soon, you'll be back in Palm Brinks. Now you get to go
on a photography spree. Your basic goal is to get a picture of some Pipes,
a Milk Can, and a Belt, but there's a lot more that you can and should take
photos of now. The checklist in the overview basically covers everything
you can take a picture of at this point, sans the last four photos. Some
of the pictures can be tricky to find, so look below if you find yourself
lost. In general, you should just take photos of anything and everything,
and keep your eyes open in all locations for new scoops.
Belt - The sheriff standing outside the police station is wearing one.
Car - Inside the bar, the bartender is serving drinks from it.
Ladder - Above the car, it doesn't look much like a ladder at all.
Pipes - Above Cedric's shop.
Once you have the three required photographs, select them in the Make menu
and press Square. Then go back to Cedric and talk to him. After this, go
buy the parts necessary and build the Energy Pack. If you don't know what
you need or forget, just select the Energy Pack's icon and look at what is
listed in red, negative numerals. Note that, if you collected enough
Rolling Logs in the dungeon, you can build a better Energy Pack instead
(the Energy Pack (Barrel)). However, Cedric will insist on you making a
normal Energy Pack for this part. Also, don't make the Energy Pack before
you've returned to Cedric with the photos, or you won't get the free Gilda
to buy stuff with. Once Steve is equipped, save and return to the Channel
Pump Room. Before you do, though, you should probably return to the
Channel Entrance and get the Fruit of Eden (and a reward from Donny,
assuming you went on a full-fledged photo spree).

Boss Fight ~ Brave Little Linda [C1LINDA]
--==
Scoop: Brave Little Linda (only chance)
This time, you stand a chance. Before you fight her, though, take a photo
of her rearing up to attack. This is your only chance to get a shot of it,
so don't miss it! After that, just do a hit-and-run tactic with Steve:
attack her 3 times, then move backwards to avoid a counter-attack.
Attacking her from behind makes this easier. Keep it up, and Linda will
fall like a ton of bricks.

Note that this is a good chance to get a shot of a Night Stalker doing a
spinning attack, and a shot of Baron Balloon in his Vanguard holding on for
dear life while doing a piledriver attack. To get this, move right up to
a Vanguard; it always does the piledriver attack when you're right next
to it. Also, there's a brief story sequence before this floor begins.

Boss Fight ~ Halloween the Clown Robo [C1CLOWN]
--==
Scoop: Clown Robo's Attack (only chance)
After a brief story sequence in the Channel Reservoir, you'll be fighting
Flotsam's clown robo, Halloween. Before you get to killing Halloween, be
sure to take a snapshot of it when it jumps into the distance and opens one
of its eyes to launch a missile. This scoop, Clown Robo's Attack, is used
in far too many inventions, and this is your only chance to get it.
Anyway, the fight is deceptively simple. Just take the clown noses the
bot shoots at you, and toss them back at it. Once it's down, switch to
Steve and give it a punch combo. Keep this up until it dies. If it drops
monsters on you, you'll have to kill them before Halloween reappears.
Also, the missile attack is easy to dodge, as it only homes in on wherever
you were standing when it was launched. After the fight, just head out to
the last area of the sewers.

Finishing up Chapter 1 [C1FINISH]
--==
This is it, the closing of the chapter. Take a snapshot of the waterfall,
and a shot of the iron bridge that the train tracks are on. Then head down
to the platform near the iron bridge to meet up with Cedric. After a short
story sequence, you'll be on-board Blackstone One. Take a snapshot of the
coal pile and the fire house, save, and go up topside. Another boss?
Well, not exactly. Just toss bombs at Flotsam's car, preferably right
after he jumps over the train. If your aim is good, you should get him.
Do this three times, and another story sequence will take place. Don't
worry if you lose and the train is derailed, you'll be given as many tries
as you need. At last, chapter 1 comes to a close.

Interlude ~ Palm Brinks Photo Spree Revisited [C2PHOTOS]
--==
Palm Brinks is now fully open, so you can go back there and go on a photo
shoot. Most everything in this chapter can be found there, except for the
following: Grass, Hammock, anything relating to Jurak, Fruit, Log,
Lin's House, Mushroom, Mushroom Burgers Sign, Torch, Pot Torch, Quartz,
Water Wheel, Woody Tailor Sign, and Wooden Bookshelf. The hard-to-find
photos in Palm Brinks are:
Bone - The skeleton in Dell Clinic.
Curtain - In Max's room; this is the only curtain that will count.
Dresser - In Max's room; don't be fooled by its commonplace appearance.
Egg - On an upper shelf in Dell Clinic.
Eyeball - In Dr. Dell's clinic, near the egg.
Elena's Portrait - In Max's house, in his father's room.
Fence - The metal fence around Max's house.
Glasses Case - In Mayor Need's office, full of glasses and hard to miss.
Palm Tree - In Max's house, in the water-filled hall.
Phone - In Max's house, on the wall that is invisible to the game camera.
Use the camera viewfinder to locate it.
Rock - Look around the lake, outside of where you can walk.
Rug - On the floor of the church. Actually, it's more of a carpet.
Saw - Dell Clinic, next to the dentist-like chair.
Stained Glass - In Max's house, on the ceiling.
Stand - This is the lamp on Mayor Need's desk. A translation error; "desk
lamp" is literally "electric stand" in Japanese.
Note that you can also nab 20 Purple Paint in the upper loft of Parn's
Studio. Just climb the ladder and check the area.
This should get you enough of a score to get another reward from Donny.
Go visit his secret base and get it, then return to Sindain to meet up with
the inhabitants there.

it's noticed you), Dangerous Pumpkin is when the Pumpkinhead spins its fork
around, and Floatin' Earth Digger is the most annoying of all of them,

Great Fish Swamp ~ Helping the Firbits [C2SWAMP]
--==
Scoops: Master Utan, King Mardan (only chance)
Ahh, sigh of relief, no enemies on this floor. Go talk to the fishing
Firbit, then head up past the big swamp to the far side of the area. After
a cutscene with Master Utan (be sure to snap a photo of him!), you'll get a
Poison Apple, which you should put on your fishing rod. Go cast it out
into the swamp, and once you see the bobber go underwater, press downwards
on the left analog stick. After another story scene (take a picture of
King Mardan!), go to the pond where the Firbit is fishing and catch a
Priscleen. If you run out of bait, just talk to the Firbit to get more.
Anyway, take the Priscleen back to King Mardan and give it to him with the
Square button (but be sure you've photographed him before you do; this is
your one and only chance to do so!). Another cutscene later, exit this
area the way you came, and go back to the Firbits' house in Sindain. Be
sure to get your reward for reaching photography lv. 4 from Donny, as well.
Photo Count: 127 ideas, 11 scoops (2 new) (Lv. 4, 309 pts)

Interlude ~ Carpenterion [C2CARPENT]
--==
After another cutscene, you'll now have control of Carpenterion. This is
a good time to go to the future briefly and collect a few power-up items
lying about there. There's not a lot you can do with the Georama just yet,
so return to the Rainbow Butterfly Woods and talk to Master Utan again.
Then go through the area he opens up for you. This would be a good point
to buy a Barrel Cannon from Cedric, if you haven't already.
This is a Geostone? [C2GEOSTON]

Go back to Sindain after getting the Geostone on this floor, and watch a
brief cutscene. Conda is now on your train, and you can hold a measly 6
more items in your inventory. Whoop de freaking doo. Since you can't
build much just yet, you might as well go back into the forest.

Interlude ~ Recruitment Drive [C2RECRUIT]
--==
Head back to Sindain and check out the new Geostones. To do this, press
Select to enter Carpenterion, then press Triangle to bring up the
Carpenterion building menu. Go back to walking mode, and a cutscene will
commence. Now, go back to Palm Brinks, and talk to Gordon (he's tending to
a tree in Max's yard). Give him a Holy Water item (you can buy them from
the priest if you don't have any), and he'll join you. Now you can recruit
a lot of people. How to do so is listed briefly in the overview, but I'll
go into detail about how here.
* Gerald - He'll give you a Trumpet Gun, and tell you to make it into a
Bell Trigger. Show him a Bell Trigger to get him to join. Any will do,
you don't have to build up the Trumpet Gun at all.
Location: He's in Max's house, in his study.
* Stewart - Talk to him several times, and give him 2000 Gilda when he asks
for it. He'll return some of it to you when you see him next (just enter
and exit a room), and join you.
Location: In the foyer of Max's house.
* Granny Rosa - Quite simply, just say "Let's go together." (but without
the quotation marks; also, make sure you select . and not ,).
Location: Usually in the waterfall room of Max's house.
* Ferdinand - After talking to him, give him a Roasted Chestnut. You can
find those all over the place in the Rainbow Butterfly Woods.
Location: In the kitchen of Max's house.
* Adel - Talk to her, then give her a Sturdy Cloth, Thick Hide, and Hunk
of Copper. Exit the room and re-enter, and she'll give you Green Overalls
and join you.
Location: In the servants' quarters of Max's house, which is just beyond
the kitchen.
* Corrine - Go to Morton's house (the one with the pumpkin patch) and find
her upstairs. Then go find her upstairs in Claire' house (the house that's
closest to Max's), and again in Max's room.
Location: As said above, in Morton's house.
* Priest Bruno - Just put out all candles in cathedral. To do this (and
it's quite easy), do a sort of chess-knight pattern of movement, starting
with a candle close to Bruno, then going down two and over to the other
side, and repeat twice more.
Location: None too surprisingly, in the church.
* Fabio - After talking to him, catch a 60cm+ Nonky and talk to him with it
in your inventory.
Location: On the pier up at the lake.
* Sheriff Blinkhorn - Run to boat on the pier at the lake and back in less
than 2 minutes and 1 second. This is hard to do if Fabio is in the way, so
you may want to recruit him first.
Location: In front of the police station. You took a photo of his belt the
previous chapter, remember?
* Milane - Talk to her as Monica. She'll give you a Gladius, and tell you
to level it up twice. This means you have to show her a Sand Breaker or
Chopper. Once you do, she'll join you. As with Gerald, you don't have to
build up the Gladius if you have a Sand Breaker or Chopper already.
Location: Inside the weapons shop.
* Aunt Polly - Talk to her, then go to Morton's Sundries. After that, go
to Morton's house (it has a pumpkin patch), and read the note on his door.
Go talk to Morton again, and then talk to Polly again.
Location: Usually in her bakery.
* Rufio - Take a photo of The Moon and keep it on your idea board. Then
talk to Rufio twice, and he'll join up.
Location: Walking around the lake.
* Mayor Need - He needs to get into his safe, so he'll give you hints on
the combination to it. If you don't want to figure it out yourself, the
combination is 1221.
Location: In his second-floor office at City Hall.
Once you have everybody you want to recruit, go back to the Rainbow
Butterfly Wood, and conquer the next two areas.

Interlude ~ The Lafrescia [C2LAFRESC]
--==
Now you're at a good point to do some Georama work on Sindain. Here's a
fairly efficient way to do it. First, make the following items (you'll
probably have to make several visits to Conda during this to get resources,
just to forewarn you):
15 River
15 Rough Wooden Fence
7 Thorn Tree
2 Wooden House
2 Straw House
1 Cart
1 Fruit Tree
1 Pot
1 Pot Torch
1 Nose Tree
1 Eye Tree 1
1 Eye Tree 2
1 Waterwheel
Next, put down the 15 River pieces in a line somewhere, preferrably
backing the Withered Jurak. Place the houses as you please (I suggest you
put one of the wooden ones near the entrance to Sindain, you'll be visiting
that one often), making sure there's room around one of the straw houses
for a lot of trees. Place the Eye Trees and Nose Tree so that the nose is
between the eyes, and near the river. Place all of the other trees near
one of the Staw Houses, and move Gordon into it. Move Adel into the other
Straw House. Put the Cart next to the Wooden House not at the entrance to
Sindain, and move Polly into it. Put the Waterwheel on the river, and put
the Pot and Pot Torch wherever you want; any that are close to more than
one house will give multiple CP boosts. Move Milane into the Wooden House
closest to the entrance. Finally, place the 15 Wooden Fence pieces around
the Firbits' house. Take some photos.
Sindain's Georama will be at 100% when you've done this. Go through the
time gate for a story sequence, and collect all the power-ups while you're
there, as well as the Golden Paint from the Golden Eggs. Be sure to snap
some photos, too! Once you return to the present, go right back to the
future for yet another story scene. Return to the present, and then back
to the future for one last story scene. Now, go buy a Himarra Badge from
the Woody Tailor shop. If you plan to recruit Donny now, get a Dark Coin
and an Indestructible Coin, too. Time for a brief recruitment drive.
* Parn & Julia - Give Parn the Gold Paint you got from the Golden Eggs.
Location: Inside Parn's studio; his shop has a sign with a purple icon on
it, so it's easy to find if you're observant.
* Donny - Give him one Dark Coin and one Indestructible Coin.
Location: Down in the Underground Channel Entrance.
Once you feel everything is in order, go to a level in the forest that has
Himarra enemies. Have Monica transform into a Himarra herself, and then
talk to one of them to get Sundrops. Once that's done, head to the Rainbow
Falls, and use the Lafrescia Seed on the small swamp. Then use the
Sundrops, and take a photo of the stem. You can now recruit one last
character for this chapter.
* Claire - Show her a picture of the Lafrescia Stem from your idea board.
You can also use a picture of a Himarra.
Location: In the house you found Corrine in earlier, most of the time.
At the cafe the rest of the time.
After that, return to the stem (save first, of course), hop on up, and
get ready for a boss fight.

Boss ~ Rainbow Butterfly [C2BUTTERF]
--==
Scoop: R. Butterfly United! (only chance)
This fight is deceptively easy. Attack the tentacles of the Lafrescia
instead of trying to hit the butterfly, and once the butterfly splits, hit
them out of order (for simplicity's sake, just don't hit the red one first;
that starts the sequence to winning the fight). You should hit your
selected butterfly with the Ridepod's Barrel Cannon, so you don't risk
getting too close or getting hit. Make sure your photography board is
empty, and point your camera up at the joining of the Lafrescia tentacles,
where the butterfly is re-joining. Start snapping photos like mad, and you
should get R. Butterfly United out of it. Repeat the tentacle luring bit
again, and this time hit them in counter-clockwise order, starting with red
(so red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet; the colors of the
rainbow in their classic order, which is no shocker). This will end
the battle.
Photo Count: 137 ideas, 16 scoops (1 new) (Lv. 4, 354 pts)
New Photos: *R. Butterfly United!
After the fight is over, return to Sindain briefly, and visit Jurak in the
future once more. Go to Blackstone One, and tell Cedric you're ready to
move out.
Finishing up Chapter 2 [C2FINISH]
--==
As you arrive in Balance Valley, go visit Lin's house. After a story
scene, go see Dr. Dell in Palm Brinks (his office is on the lake). Take
him to see Lin. This chapter will finally end, and chapter 3 will open.

Chapter 3 ~ The Sage of the Stars [WCHAPTER3]
==--
Chapter 3 Overview [C3OVER]
--==
Chapter 3's future area has two glitches. First, you must collect the
3 Fruits of Eden that are rewarded after Earth-Shaking Demon before going
on to the level after it, or you will never be able to get 2 of them.
Second, you must not get the Fruit of Eden on the far corner of the weapon
shop platform until after a certain point in chapter 6. As such, the
checkbox for that fruit is not in this chapter.
NOTE: You can now buy Seal-Breaking Scrolls at Morton's Sundries in Palm
Brinks. These let you break any of the three Seal types on a floor in an
instant, instead of having to kill all enemies to break it.
Scoops:
[ ] Charging Ram

Interlude ~ Balance Valley [C3BALANCE]
--==
After some more cutscenes, you'll be ready to enter the dungeon of this
chapter, Starlight Canyon. Though you may want to go set your support
character first, since Dr. Dell kind of removed them from your party. Oh
yes, this is a good time to start the Georama for this area, too. Build
the following items:
15 Thorn Tree
4 Pot Torch
1 Straw House
1 Wooden House
1 Wooden Gate
Put the Straw House on a platform, and paint the roof purple (you can get
paints from Parn). Move Parn into this house. Put the Wooden House on one
of the other platforms, and move Stewart into it. Put the Wooden Gate and
Pot Torches near either or both of these. Finally, put the trees on the
platforms, distributing them so that the platforms are all even (ie. shown
as blue in the bottom left corner).
Once this is done, go into Starlight Canyon.

Interlude ~ Collecting Power-ups [C3COLLECT]
--==
Upon returning to Balance Valley, build the following:
1 Weather Vane
1 Chinese Stand
1 Warehouse
Place the Weather Vane and Warehouse on a house, and place the Chinese
Stand near any of the houses. Redistribute trees as necessary to balance
out the platforms. Move Ferdinand into the Chinese Stand, and be sure to
take photos of all the stuff on his stand.
Now, go visit the future and collect the following power-ups: the 3 Fruit
of Edens on the bridges between the outer platforms, and the Fruit of Eden
and Potato Pie on the center platform. With that done, you've gotten past
the first potential glitch of this part of the game, and can safely proceed
to the next floor of Starlight Canyon.

Interlude ~ Restoring Lao Chao's Bistro [C3LAOCHAO]
--==
Now you should return to Balance Valley and build the following:
1 Brick House
7 Wooden Fence
1 Church
Place the fences and the gate from before around the Brick House, and move
Sheriff Blinkhorn in. Move Priest Bruno into the church. As always be
sure to balance out the platforms. There's a few things you can photograph
in the church. Once you've gotten these, head to the future and visit Lao
Chao's Bistro (which also has a lot of photo opportunities). Starlight
Weapons should also be there now, so go visit it and snap a shot of a Horn
and Hat. Your photography level should be 5 now, so you can get another
reward from Donny. Once everything is done, go back to Elephant Army in
the Valley and take the Sun exit.

Barga's Valley ~ Introducing Spheda [C3BARGAS]
--==
Before you move on, go back to Balance Valley and make a Star Lamp. Put
it on the brick house (and be sure to get a snapshot of it!). Once that's
done, go to Barga's Valley. After a short story sequence, you'll be asked
to find a stick. There's one sitting in the sand pit nearby. Equip it and
talk to Monica to continue. Now you have to play a little game of Spheda.
If you want to win quickly, aim for the rock formation with a star on it
(this can be tricky to spot) for a one-hit goal. Otherwise, just make the
sphere disappear and let Monica do it. You'll get a Swan Spheda club if
you make the goal yourself, and a Turkey Spheda club if you let Monica do
it for you. Either choice will get you the White Windflower.
NOTE: I HIGHLY suggest you go back to Palm Brinks, and visit Mena in city
hall. Talk to her as Monica. This will eventually allow you to recruit
her. I say you should do this now because, if you don't, any games of
Spheda you play before talking to her won't count towards recruiting her.

Take the White Windflower and give it to Lao Chao. If you want, you can
avoid giving the Miracle Dumplings to Lin for as many as 3 more floors.
Just keep in mind that, when you do give the Miracle Dumplings to her, she
will join your party for the rest of the time you're in this area. Once
you do heal her, Star Items should appear in the future. Go there and get
some new ideas, and buy a Starglass as well. Might as well do some item
collecting, but remember to NOT grab the chest that's glitched!

Head back to Balance Valley and make a Laundry. Put it on a house and

you haven't saved Lin, you have to if you want to proceed. Once she's in
your party, go to Yorda's Valley. Get a shot of the Giant Yorda Tree, and
then approach it. You'll have to fight the Phantom Memo Eater. He's not a
difficult boss at all (just use ranged attacks like the Barrel Cannon), but
this is your only chance to get his scoop. Once you've got the photo of
and beaten the boss, you can move on.

Interlude ~ Fishing Contest [C3FISHING]
--==
Now is a good time to take some more photos. First, build and place a
Well in Balance Valley, and get a shot of that. Then, head to the Fishing
Contest (if it's going on; there will be a green banner in the top left
corner of the menu when it's happening). Get a shot of the various Fishing
Contest items. If the contest is not happening at the moment, feel free to
move on with the dungeon. Just remember to go to Palm Brinks once the
contest IS happening, and get the photos then. Once you're ready, you can
take on the last level of Starlight Canyon.

After completing this floor, be sure you've gathered all of the items in
the future (except for the glitched FoE, of course!), and be sure you save.
Then, it's on to the lighthouse.
Lighthouse on the Cape ~ Dual Boss Battle [C3CAPE]
--==
Approach the lighthouse after the short story sequence, and use the
Starglass. After another story sequence, you'll be fighting Gaspard as
Monica. The trick to dealing with him is to do a charged strike, and as he
starts to get back up, hit him with another charged strike. After you've
taken off about a third of his health, you'll switch to Max.
Max has to beat up Evil Flame enemies. But first, get a snapshot of the
Flying Battleship. Then, get in the Ridepod and use the Barrel Cannon to
beat the flames, constantly locking on new ones as they appear. Continue
until you're back to Monica, and resume the tactic mentioned above. It
will again switch back to Max, where you should again blow away flames with
the Barrel Cannon. And then, you'll have one last duel with Gaspard, where
the same tactics as before apply.
After the fight, you'll see a number of cutscenes. Save your game, and
visit Starlight Temple in the future. After the story sequence is over,
visit the temple again, and gather the items on the Moon Crystal layer of
the temple (be sure to get a snapshot of the crystal itself, too!).

The game will force a few cutscenes on you, and then you'll be given
control again. Take some photos if you'd like, then visit the cave that
Max and Monica noted. After another few cutscenes, you'll be ready to
enter this chapter's dungeon, Ocean Roar Cave. Be sure to go see Donny
first and get the latest scoops. You can get a shot of A Surviving Soldier
in the cave on the far side of Veniccio (not the one near the dungeon or
Pau's house, on the other side of the Georama area). It's a ghost photo,
so take it late at night.

Interlude ~ Building Veniccio Up [C4BUILD]
--==
Now that you should have the Iron House Geostone, we can begin building up
Veniccio. In Georama mode, make the following:
8 Pier
4 Iron House
2 Shop Boat
1 Pot Torch
From the entrance of Veniccio's Georama (there's a banner over it), facing
out towards the sea, place the piers and boats like so:
P- Key:
P-P- S = Shop Boat
SP-P-S P- = Pier
P-P- B- = Entrance Banner
P-
B-
You can, of course, configure this however you want, but this is the most
efficient way. Anyway, put an Iron House on each pier. Paint one red, one
blue, one green, and one purple. Put the Pot Torch near the red house (if
you can, put it between both it and its closest neighbor). Move Claire
into the red house, and Donny into the blue one. That should boost your
Georama score a bit, and open up a bit of the future area of Veniccio, Luna
Labs. As you may have guessed, it's time to go on a photo spree. Start by
going into one of the iron houses, and take photos of the T.V., Small
Generator, Banana, Egg-Shaped Transmitter, and Ventilation. Then head to
the future, and snap a few shots there: Air Cleaner, Egg Chair, Energy
Pipe, Work Equipment, and Work Robot. This should put you just at the
right level to get another reward from Donny.

Boss ~ Puppet Shingala [C4PUPPET]
--==
After a story sequence in the Cave of Ancient Murals, you'll be taken back
to Veniccio. Visit Luna Labs, and pay a visit to lab 1 (the red one). If
you haven't already, catch a fish, then feed it the Electric Worm from
inside your Aquarium. If you don't have the Aquarium, well, you'd better
hurry up and build one, and catch a fish to stick in it! Once you've done
that, go back to the Cave of Ancient Murals.
BOSS: Puppet Shingala (Scoop)
After snapping a photo of Shingala, start shooting him with Max's gun.
Once Shingala opens its mouth, grab the electrified fish and toss it
directly at Shingala's mouth. That's all there is to it. If you miss,
the fish will reappear somewhere on the battlefield, and you'll have to try
again. Be sure you don't kill Shingala!
After the fight, return to the future and visit lab 2 (the blue one).
This will nab you the Shell Talkie, which is required for finishing this
particular chapter. After that, it's back to the usual grind.

Go ahead and visit the Shigura Village. Talk to the leader (he's pretty
obvious, as he's the only Shigura of his coloring), and then return to
Veniccio. Go ahead and build a Windmill for the Georama and place it, as
well as snap a shot of the Windmill Feather. If the Georama CP is below
80, just add a few Iron Sheds to the other houses to shore the score up.
Save your game too, just in case and all that. Go use the medicine on
Shingala. After that, go to the Shigura Village again. You'll have to
fight Jaming.

Boss ~ Doctor Jaming [C4JAMING]
--==
Scoop: Dr. Jaming (only chance)
Strategy: After snapping a photo, follow Jaming around while guarding.
Whenever he's not telling the Shigura to attack you, attack the Shigura
that will intercept his movement path when it lifts its head. Keep this
up until Jaming is defeated. Note that, if you missed the Flying
Battleship scoop before, this is your second chance to get it.
After the fight, Luna Labs should be finished. If they're not, just put
down some more CP-raising items in the Georama to finish it. Visit Luna
Labs (you should get a Nova Cannon from Osmond for getting 100% on the
Georama), then go into the central lab and watch the long-arse cutscene.
Be sure you collect power-ups and the like, too!

Interlude ~ Heim Rada Rebuilding [C5BUILD]
--==
First things first. Head straight back to Veniccio and recruit Pau. Go
on back to Heim Rada after that, and take some photos (the Hot Springs
Spirit is obviously a ghost photo, head down the semi-hidden path to the
hot springs and focus on the spring to the right). Then, build the
following items:
10 Pot
4 Brick House
3 Iron Stand
2 Brick Chimney
1 Windmill
1 Straw House
Place 3 of the houses side-by-side, so they can all benefit from the CP
of items placed near them. Put a Chimney on two of these houses, then put
the 10 pots however you like behind the houses (try to cluster them close
to said houses for maximum CP). Place all 3 stands in the same spot, so
they stack up, and put the last Brick House on top of them. Place the
Windmill next to this high house. Finally, move Cedric, Gerald, and Borneo
into the 3 lower houses, and Erik into the house up on the stands (just use
Carpenterion to put yourself up on the stand). Place the Straw House
anywhere, return to the train stop, then come back. Take a photo of the
Cinders that remain.
Next you should visit the Gundorada Workshop, so go ahead and do that.
There are some items you can snap photos of there, but not much else right
at the moment. Head up Mt. Gundor once you're done with your photo spree.

various items. The Patterned Rug is the only really hard one to find; it's
on the floor in G-TOOLS. After that, it's back to Mt. Gundor yet again.

Interlude ~ Before the Fire Squall [C5BEFORE]
--==
Return to Heim Rada. First things first: make a Hardened Mud Pile, and
don't put it over one of the geysers; that will just cause it (and the
geyser) to vanish. Take a photo of it.
IMPORTANT: If you want a full photo album, be sure you take a picture of
Cinders before you go any further! Also be sure you get a shot of a Geyser
before you plug them all up (assuming you even bother to; it's not even
remotely necessary).
Now, head to Mount Gundor Peak, and take a photo of the Fire Squall.
This is critical, since (as you should be well aware) it's not going to be
around for much longer. Place the time bomb.

while the battleship will be very much the worse for wear. This is your
very last chance to get the Flying Battleship scoop, so if you missed it
the two times before, get it now!
Interlude ~ The Fire Horn [C5HORN]

Boss ~ Ultimate Gaspard [C5GASPARD]
--==
Enter the Mount Gundor Mouth, and use the Fire Horn. Take a shot of the
path across the lava that appears, and as you cross it, get a shot of the
fallen Death Ark battleship. Make any final preparations necessary, then
head up to the ship proper. You'll fight Gaspard.
Boss: Gaspard
He's not changed one bit, and he's ridiculously easy now that you can
fight him with Steve. Use the Ridepod's Samurai Arm II to make Gaspard
into elf burger.
After the fight, another story sequence commences, and you'll be fighting
another boss.
Boss: The Ultimate Gaspard (scoop)
Take a photo of this flame demon, then do exactly what you did to his
other form. For such a supposedly powerful boss, he sure is pathetic.
Seriously, just chaining 3 hits of Samurai Arm II then backing off and
repeating is enough to win.
Once again, another story sequence will play out, and you'll be taken back
to Heim Rada.

Return to Gundorada Workshop and snap a photo of the massive Paznos. Then
head into the Operations Room for a very lengthy series of story sequences.
You'll get Monica's Holy Daedalus Blade during said sequence. Go to Paznos
Bridge via any of the jump gates, and take a shot of the Paznos Pattern
(above the front window). Then talk to Agaris to commence the next part of
the story sequence. After this, head to Luna Lab's central lab and watch
the final story sequence of chapter 5.

Chapter 6 Overview [C6OVER]
--==
A bit of a break from the norm, there's no Georama work that needs to be
done in this chapter. Just take photos, go through the dungeons, and get
the power-up items. Quite a snap with Steve powered up sufficiently. Note
that you must get all the shots around Kazarov Stonehenge and the Moon
Flower Palace before completing chapter 7, hence why everything relating to
these two things (and Ixion) are listed as missable. The Dead Tree photo
must be taken as soon as you reach the Moon Flower Palace for the first
time, as well.

The Locked Palace [C6PALACE]
--==
This chapter opens up with another story sequence, then deposits you
outside of the ancient Moon Flower Palace. Take some photos (one of which
is sneakily hidden inside Ixion itself). The Moon Flower Palace scoop is
gotten by taking a picture of the main entrance doors, if you're wondering.
Once you're all set, enter the Moon Flower Palace. After a story sequence,
you'll be fighting none other than Emperor Griffon.
Boss: Emperor Griffon (scoop)
Take a snapshot of him, then start aiming and firing. It's best to use a
ranged weapon like Max's gun, Monica's armlet, or Steve's Nova Cannon. The
fight will be delayed midway through for a story sequence, then it will
continue. Nothing changes about the fight, however. His tactics are
generally to swerve all over the place. When he attacks, he'll summon
several roses to launch at you (you can tell when he's going to do this, he
moves differently than normal). Just keep moving so they don't hit you.
If he rushes towards you, guard until he's done unleashing his power
attack, or (if you've got good reflexes) back off so it misses you.
After the fight, there will be more story sequence. Exit the palace, then
re-enter it. A long story sequence commences.

Interlude ~ Kazarov Stonehenge [C6KAZAROV]
--==
You'll find yourself at Kazarov Stonehenge after the story sequence is
finally over. Take a shot of the central structure here, as well as the
four altars. Now, four new paths are open, one per previous dungeon you
have visited. You have to take all of them, but the order you take them on
in is entirely up to you. I suggest taking them on in the order that you
originally did, but it actually makes no difference either way. Be sure
you visit Donny and get new scoops, by the way.

Enter the Moon Flower Palace courtyard, and watch the brief cutscene.
Once you're in control, go into Carpenterion mode and build a Relaxation
Fountain. Place it in the middle (you'll have to move it later, so don't
fret too much about positioning it right). Take a photo of it, as well as
the trees outside of the palace, then head inside. After another story

Interlude ~ Rebuilding the Moon Flower Palace [C7BUILD1]
--==
Visit the Garden (which you reach after completing Crush the Undead).
After the story sequence, start snapping away with the camera, and get the
Flower of the Sun (after photographing it, naturally). Then, return to the
courtyard and build the following:
8 Road to Golbad
6 Road
2 Starlight Stair
Pick up the fountain first, then assemble the area as so:
Train Stop
GG Key:
GG GG = Road to Golbad
GG R = Road
GG S---S = Starlight Stair
RS---SRRFFRRS---SR FF = Relaxation Fountain
GG
GG
GG
GG
Palace
Be sure that the end Road pieces for the Starlight Stairs are as close as
possible to the edge. Your goal is to get everything set up so that the
Relaxation Fountain is dead center. Once you've done this, take a snapshot
of the Road to Golbad (the flowerbeds around it), the Starlight Stairway
(the steps themselves), and the Starlight Tunnel (the alcove under the
stairs). Go to Veniccio and pick up your Sun Badge from Donny. Then
return to the palace dungeon and take the sun path for Zombie Zone.

Interlude ~ More Rebuilding [C7BUILD2]
--==
Now is as good a time as any to work on the Moon Flower Palace Georama.
Build the following:
16 Moon Column
14 Petal Stream
6 Flower Bed
2 Camelia Tree
2 Silver Bench
1 Hall of Sorrow
1 Palace Stairs
This hefty order filled, assemble it all as follows:
Train Stop
MGGM HHH Key:
P MGGM CPC GG = Road to Golbad
P MGGM P R = Road
ffPff MGGM P S---S = Starlight Stair
RS---SRRFFRRS---SR FF = Relaxation Fountain
P MGGM P s---s = Palace Stairs
P MGGM P ff = Flowerbed
bs-P-sbMGGM ffPff HHH = Hall of Sorrow
bs-P-sbMGGM ffPff C = Camellia Tree
P = Petal Stream
Palace b = Bench
M = Moon Column
It's a bit rough, but it should make sense. Note that the Petal Stream is
supposed to go under the Starlight Stairs and Palace Stairs. Anyway, once
you've done this, a cutscene will trigger. Snap a few photos, then resume
your treck through the palace dungeon.

This will be your final Georama act. Build a Stardust Pond, and place it
at the end of the left Petal Stream (as shown in the diagram above; it
basically goes in the one spot with nothing in it in the diagram). This
will finish the Georama, show you one last cutscene, allow you to access
the last part of the dungeon, and give you a Sun Stone and Moon Stone.
Good deal. Snap a shot of the pond, then return to the palace.

Sun Chamber ~ The End of an Adventure Awaits [C7SUN]
--==
Here we are, at the end of the palace. It's been a long haul, and it's
almost over. Take some scenic photos, save your game, then tell the door
Griffon's real name (Sirus, if you've forgotten). This is your last chance
to make preparations, so be sure you're ready. Get all of the Potato Pies,
Witch Parfaits, and Fruits of Eden you might have forgotten, for example.

- Twin Buster [Flower Chandelier & Jurak's Nose & Rifle]
Once you're all prepped, have saved, and are ready, enter the Sun Chamber.
After a story sequence, the boss fight will begin.
Boss: Emperor Griffon, Ruler of Darkness
The first form is tricky, as he likes to chain-attack you. Attack from
the get-go, but be prepared to guard the moment he starts his own attack
motions. It shouldn't take long to beat him, assuming you have a decent
ranged weapon on hand.
Another story scene will play out, and you'll be fighting Griffon again.
Boss: Emperor Griffon, Ruler of Darkness
He's a lot more aggressive, but also more predictable. Attack him when
he's not moving, and move when he closes in, then attack him. He
broadcasts his next moves so blatantly in this form that you'd have to be
not paying attention at all to get hit by them.
Yet another story sequence, and then you're back to the fight.
Boss: Emperor Griffon, Ruler of Darkness
Now Griffon can put you in Stop status, which is annoying. Shoot at him
like crazy, and the moment any of his attacks land, open the menu and use a
Heart-Throb Cherry or Mighty Heal (as well as healing items, if necessary).
You can also opt for Non-Stop Amulets, but those are notorious for breaking
during this fight. Keep up the shooting, and he'll fall eventually.
Again, a story sequence will commence, and you'll be sent to the Spiral of
Dreams (which happens to be the name of the song playing on it). At each
level of the spiral, you'll have to fight some pseudo-boss before you can
continue upwards.
Boss: Mammo, Dream-Shredding Fang
Just a palette-swap elephant enemy. The usual tactics work.
Boss: Nightmare, Dream-Keeper
A palette-swap of those big fat anteater things. He fights exactly like
those do, so you shouldn't have any trouble.
Boss: Black Dragon, The Howl that Echoes in Dreams
A palette-swapped dragon enemy. Nothing surprising about him, he behaves
exactly like all other dragons do.
Boss: Uther, Servant of Dreams
A palette-swapped Arthur, and just as tricky as those are. Attack
relentlessly, but guard if he comes at you and prepares to skewer you.
Boss: Gaja Ein and Gaja Zwei, The Double Dream-Ending Swords
Palette-swapped Bone Lords. They're a bit dangerous since they're teaming
up against you, but if you can lure one into a corner, it will be over very
quickly... hopefully.
At this point, you'll be at the top of the spiral. Heal up before you go
and take on Dark Element, though. Head on up, and the fight will shortly
commence against this nasty boss.
Boss: Dark Element, Evil Made Flesh
Start by taking a shot of the Legend of the Moon (your only chance to do
this, might as well). This fight can only take 10 minutes max, but that's
more than enough with a good strategy. Dark Element has three attack
patterns. The first is where he does a 3-hit combo; just attack him until
the third hit of it, then guard. The second is to back up and use his
power attack. Either guard against this, or time a power strike so you're
unaffected by it. The third is when he uses a lightning bolt to petrify
you, but this is so rare that you'll probably never see it. There's
another catch to this fight: you can only damage Dark Element with Max when
he's blue, and only Monica when he's purple. As long as you've powered up
at least one of the two, you should be able to defeat him with little to
no trouble.

Interlude ~ The Zelmite Mine [C8MINE]
--==
The chapter opens with a brief story sequence (very brief), and then you
are sent off on your own. There's a few changes in chapter 8 beyond the
ones mentioned. First off, Monica's not with you; that will change soon,
so don't go selling her stuff. The second thing that's changed is that
Morton now sells coins and gemstones as well as his usual stuff. Also,
Rufio will sell you all types of elemental crystals now, not just the basic
ones. Anyway, now's as good a time as any, so enter the mines.
NOTE: Most of the mine floors are optional. You only need to visit Dead
End 3, out of all the Dead Ends, to complete this dungeon.

This is not easy. The targetting likes to be finnicky and pick whoever is
furthest from you instead of closest, so you're going to probably have to
deal with these bone boys up close. To this end, lure one or two away from
the center, and use charged attacks to take them down. Repeat until all of
them are dead. Winning nets you an Absorption Coin and a Moon Stone.

Afterwards, you'll be fighting Metal Flotsam.
Boss: Metal Flotsam (scoop)
After snapping a shot of everybody's favorite mad clown, get down to
business. Flotsam is pretty erratic, so you'll probably want to take him
out from a distance. The usual rules apply: guard if he moves in close or
appears to be preparing to use a powerful distance attack, and blast at him
relentlessly the rest of the time.
After the fight, another brief story scene plays out, and the way into the
last areas of the mine opens up.

gang up on you at once, so your best bet is to either take them out before
they move in with a strong distance-based weapon, or use charged attacks
from your close-ranged weapon to knock them all down, and repeat until they
all die. Victory nets you a pair of chests, each of which has a Diamond
inside of it.

Boss ~ Mr. Big Shot Shadow [C8BOSS5]
--==
Save before you enter the Zelmite Mine Depths. Walk up to the rubble
pile and use the Dynamite on it, then enter the opening. After a short
story sequence, you'll be fighting the big baddie himself, the Dark Genie.
Boss: Dark Genie
Snap a photo of him if you want; it's not like you can save the shot to
anything but the photo album. Same goes for the Zelmite. The fight itself
is a bit tricky. Just like Dark Element, the Dark Genie can change who can
damage him, and the same color rules apply. Unlike the first Dark Cloud,
his ultimate beam attack can be blocked, and he uses it far less often.
Lock on him ASAP, avoid the mini-Genies, and just fire like mad. If he
hits you with the beam, go into the menu quickly and heal the damage.
Since this is the absolute last fight, don't hesitate to heal; you're not
going to use any of your items again anyway. After a while, assuming your
stock of items holds out, Mr. Big Shot Shadow himself will be defeated.

Like most action RPG's, Dark Cloud 2 requires you to have some decent
reflexes to play it well. But it also has some tactics you can use to make
playing the game quite a bit easier. This section covers these tactics, as
well as the basic mechanics of the game's battle engine.
Attacking and Defending - The most basic thing to master is how to
effectively attack and defend. At close range, this means that you should
defend as an enemy does an attack, then attack just as they finish. With
long-ranged weapons, the key to attacking is avoidance: move constantly so
ranged hits won't hit you, and keep your distance at all times.
Charged Attacks - These are very effective, but not without risk. A
Charged Attack takes about 1.5 seconds to be powered up, and does around
twice the damage of a normal attack, to all enemies within its range. They
also have a knockdown effect on lightweight enemies. The problem is, you
cannot guard or move quickly while charging (and you're vulnerable while
charging as a result). Also, charged attacks eat up more WHP when hitting
enemies with them. To do a charged attack, hold down X until your
character starts to glow. Release X to unleash it at this point.
Weapon HP (WHP) - Weapons, too, have HP. When they're down to 0, they
stop doing damage. To repair them, you just need to use an appropriate
type of Repair Powder (regular for wrenches/hammers/clubs/swords, Gun for
guns, and Armband for armbands). It's a good idea to keep an eye on WHP,
as the last thing you need is for your attacks to stop doing anything in
the heat of battle.
Evading Attacks - This is the ideal way to deal with most enemy moves. To
evade effectively, you need to know what your opponent is about to do, and
how to not take damage from it. Most enemies broadcast their attacks, so
you'll have some warning, but the only effective way to learn to evade any
attack is to see it used against you at least once, so you know which way
to move to not get hit. Some moves are hard to evade by moving away, so
using a well-timed charged attack may be more effective (since you're
immune to damage during a charged attack), or just blocking may be a good
choice to make; a lot of hard-to-evade attacks do no damage when blocked.
Picking Things Up - Pretty basic. While guarding, use the attack button
to pick up an object (or enemy!) in your way. Take note that a held enemy
behaves the same as a held crate/rock/vase when being thrown at other
enemies (ie. it can stun the target enemy if they're hit).
Throwing Items - Both items in the top bar and items on the grounds in
dungeons apply. You cannot aim automatically with them, so you need to be
pretty good at judging distance when trying to hit an enemy with any sort
of thrown item. The crates, rocks, and vases found in dungeons will often
yield items when broken, so it's worth it sometimes to toss them about.
Equipping Extra Items - You can equip items in the top 3 circles on the
top left of the screen. Mostly, the items you can put up there are for
healing or attacking, but some take effect just by being up there (like the
Amulets). To use an item in the top bar, select it with the d-pad or the
right analog, and press Square.
ABS/Gilda - After killing an enemy, you earn ABS and Gilda from them. How
much you earn is fixed, but certain weapon skills and allies can increase
these scores (or decrease Gilda, in one case). Though the weapon you use
at the time of killing determines how much ABS/Gilda you get, any weapon
can be equipped in its place to receive the experience instead. If you
switch between Max and Monica to collect the ABS/Gilda (ie. Max kills the
enemy, Monica collects the ABS, or vice versa), the ABS will be evenly
divided between both of their weapons. This also happens if you use the
Ridepod or Monster Transformation to kill an enemy and switch to one of
them. The Ridepod and Monster Transformations only have one place for ABS
to be distributed, so who does the killing doesn't change much for them.
Weapons Leveling - Weapons gain levels after gaining a certain amount of
ABS (the amount varies depending on the base stats of the weapon). Weapons
gain SP at this time as well (again, the amount depends on the weapon's
base stats), and usually a boost to Attack, Durability and WHP. Players
can then distribute abilities to the weapon by Synthesizing (Synthing)
items and adding them to the weapon. Most weapons can also be upgraded to
other forms, when certain ability requirements are met. Just choose Build
Up on a weapon to see the requirements are for its upgrade (or upgrades;
some have more than one).
Weapons Synthing - Weapons, too, can be made into Synthspheres to be put
on other weapons. Like all Synthspheres, the resulting 'sphere can be put
on any weapon. However, you will not get an effective Synthsphere from a
weapon unless it's at least +5 in rank. The SP cost of the Synthed weapon
is whatever its level is (so the minimum number of SP to Synth an effective
weapon Synthsphere is 5).
HP and Defense - To boost these two critical stats, you have to find
Fruit of Eden items and the appropriate defense-boosting items (Potato Pie
for Max, Witch Parfait for Monica). These items are hidden in small chests
throughout the world's future areas, as well as a few in Palm Brinks. To
get them to appear, you usually have to complete floors of dungeons. There
are a few glitched Fruits of Eden in chapter 3, so you'll want to read the
walkthrough concerning that chapter to avoid missing them. The best policy
is to explore the future areas after each dungeon floor.
Shop Lists [GDSHOPS]

This is a list of every shop, and what they sell when. Repair powders go
up in price by about 10 to 40 Gilda each chapter. If no chapter is listed
on an item, it's always sold there.

Georama Parts Overview [GDGEORAMA]
==--
There are plenty of things to build for the Georama areas of the game.
Here's an overview of all the pieces. The Cost to Build score tells you
how much Gilda you'd have to pay to get all of the parts necessary from
Conda. You'll likely have to do this on more than one occasion. The list
is organized according to Geostone acquisition. Polyn scores appear to be
based off of the objects' polygon counts, which makes sense.

Weapons
==--
This is an overview of all the possible weapons you can build: their
minimum stats, their maximum stats, what they can be upgraded into, and how
you can get your hands on them. Note that finding them in dungeons or
building them up is not suggested if you can buy them, but this is usually
not an option. If a weapon can be bought, other methods to obtain it are
not listed, but they usually exist.
The min. and max. stats are listed according to their order in the menu:
Attack, Durability, Flame, Chill, Lightning, Cyclone, Smash, Exorcism,
Beast, and Scale.
Weapon Effects [GDWEAPEFF]
--==
Note that most weapon effects take place when you attack. Certain effects
cancel each other out (Wealth and Poverty, Durable and Fragile, Dark and
Critical, Heal and Absorb). Weapon effects always transfer over when a
weapon with them is made into a Synthsphere, unless the receiving weapon
has a counter-effect on it (in which case both that effect and its counter-
effect will be wiped out). This also applies when synthing coins and
upgrading weapons to forms with abilities inherent in them.
Name Coin Effect
Poison Poison Coin Randomly poisons enemies
Wealth Wealth Coin +20% Gilda earned from enemies
Poverty N/A -20% Gilda earned from enemies
Steal Bandit Coin Randomly steals items
Durable Indestructible Coin +50% durability
Fragile N/A -50% durability
Critical Bull's-Eye Coin +80% damage (random)
Dark Dark Coin +30% damage; -2 HP per hit
Heal Healing Coin +1 HP per second
Absorb Absorption Coin +5 to 50% HP/damage done (random)
Stop Time Coin Randomly stops enemies
ABS Up Experience Coin +20% experience earned from enemies

Mini-Games
==--
There's plenty of extra stuff to do in Dark Cloud 2. This is a list of
all of the things you can partake in.
Medal Collecting [GDMEDALS]
--==
Each chapter has a certain number of medals in it, usually 3 per level.
There are 396 medals total in the game, of which 303 are accessible by the
end of chapter 7. Here's how it breaks down:
Chapter 1 - 5 levels, 15 medals
Chapter 2 - 9 levels, 36 medals
Chapter 3 - 16 levels, 52 medals
Chapter 4 - 14 levels, 42 medals
Chapter 5 - 16 levels, 48 medals
Chapter 6 - 12 levels, 38 medals
Chapter 7 - 24 levels, 72 medals
Chapter 8 - 31 levels, 93 medals
Every level has a time attack goal (ie. how fast you finish the level) and
a clear goal (which are all "use only one type of weapon" goals or to exit
the level without healing). Most have Spheda goals, and the few that don't
have fishing goals. A handful of levels have both fishing and Spheda goals
(mostly levels in chapter 2). Here's the breakdown of clear goals:
Goal MRH MG MS MM RP MT IO WH Tot
Ch. 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 2 5
Ch. 2 0 1 2 1 2 0 2 1 9
Ch. 3 2 0 1 0 4 4 4 1 16
Ch. 4 2 1 1 1 4 1 2 2 14
Ch. 5 2 2 1 1 2 1 5 2 16
Ch. 6 1 1 1 1 1 2 3 2 12
Ch. 7 2 1 1 1 4 3 7 5 24
Ch. 8 2 3 2 2 6 0 10 6 31
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total 12 9 9 7 24 11 34 21 127
MRH = Max's Right-Hand Weapon MG = Max's Gun MS = Monica's Sword
MM = Monica's Magic RP = Ridepod MT = Monster Transformation
IO = Items Only WH = Without healing
Time Attack:
Clearing the time goals is tricky for the first two areas; you won't be
able to do them until the Ridepod is fairly beefy. From chapter 3 onwards,
though, the time limits are very reasonable, and you should have little to
no trouble.
Fishing:
Fishing goals are always simple. Just fish until you catch one that's
within the size requirements. It's not exactly a brain-stretcher. Tiring
at times, but very doable.
Spheda:
Spheda goals are generally the hardest to do. The difficulty is more or
less as follows, from easiest to hardest:
Moon Flower Palace -> Ocean's Roar Cave -> Zelmite Mines -> Mt. Gundor ->
Underground Channel -> Starlight Canyon -> Rainbow Butterfly Woods
As you can see, the first few areas are the hardest, particularly Rainbow
Butterfly Woods and Starlight Canyon. They both have you crossing vast
distances of "off course" area with relatively little solid land in between
them. The Underground Channel and Mt. Gundor both suffer from "off course"
area lining both sides of any given path, though the sewer is harder due to
the low ceilings. The Zelmite Mines, Ocean's Roar Cave, and Moon Flower
Palace all have very straightforward Spheda with few obstacles. For more
information on playing Spheda, consult the section on it below.
Clear Goals:
These are generally tricky as you get further into the game. The weapon
goals for Max and Monica are generally pretty easy to fulfill if you have a
decently powerful weapon in hand. Ridepod goals start out average, get
easier, and then take a sharp turn towards difficult from mid-chapter 7
onwards. Healing goals are the easiest of them all most of the time, since
you don't have to beat all monsters to get them (unlike all other goals);
just get the gate key and exit the level without using any healing items.
No Healing goals are not nulled by having a weapon with Heal or Absorb
equipped, either.
Item goals are a mixed bag, and usually very expensive to fulfill. You
need to take certain precautions to save on items. First off, try and use
Poison Apples as much as possible; a poisoned enemy all but kills itself if
left to its own devices for long enough. Anything that can't be poisoned
you should use bombs on if you can afford it (use Bomb Nuts for earlier
chapters). Flying enemies will always present a problem, but there are
ways to deal with them. Most of them have a close-in attack where they
hover in front of you for a second. Guard until they use this, then when
they're done attacking, toss the appropriate item. If this doesn't seem to
work, just use a Final Bomb on them. Expensive as all-get-out, but it does
work. Try and herd enemies together when using bomb items, to get more
bang for your buck.
Take note that you can easily lose a goal by accidentally using a weapon
other than the required one, or by having certain circumstances take place.
Most notably is when Max deflects magic attacks back at enemies with his
melee weapon. To avoid this, always attack projectile-shooting enemies
AFTER they've just shot at you, and let them shoot again if necessary. The
other player-controlled mishap is Monica's Magic Sword ability. If you use
this during a Monica's Magic only goal and hit an enemy near you with the
sword itself, you don't get the medal. The last one, that is entirely out
of your control, is that tank enemies shoot exploding cannon balls that
will hurt any enemy (and you as well) that's in the blast radius. The only
way to avoid this is to kill them before they can attack, or get lucky
enough to have no other enemies whatsoever near them when fighting them.
Inventing [GDINVENT]
--==
Here are the photography rewards you can get from Donny:
Lv/Pts Reward
2/100 Diamond
3/200 Bandit Coin
4/300 Explorer's Helmet
5/400 Explorer's Shoes
6/500 Explorer's Outfit
7/600 Moon Badge
8/700 Sun Badge
This is pretty straightforward, for what technically counts as a minigame.
You take pictures of various objects (and some enemy attacks), and then
combine the ideas into inventions. You can find invention recipes in
various locations throughout the game, or you can use the info presented in
this walkthrough instead; either works. The text below lists all of the
inventions, where their recipes are found, what ideas are needed to make
them, what components are needed to construct them, and the overall cost of
building them. The earliest chapter you can access the inventions without
using the photo album is also listed. For any inventions with multiple
recipes, the alternate will be listed beneath the ideas list.

Fishing [GDFISHING]
--==
Fishing is pretty simple in Dark Cloud 2. There's two ways to do it, with
the Bait Rod or the Lure Rod. How each works:
Bait Rod - You put on your bait of choice, and then fish. If the line
breaks or you catch a fish, the bait that was on the hook vanishes. You
just have to wait for a fish to bite to catch something.
Lure Rod - You put a lure on the rod. Lures can't be lost, even when the
line breaks. You have to move the lure about in an appropriate manner to
catch a fish.
Once you have a bite, it's a simple minigame of reeling in the fish
without snapping the line. Depending on fish size, this can be very fast
or very slow. As a general rule of thumb, keep the gauge below 66%, just
in case. When a fish starts struggling, you'll see an arrow indicating a
direction. Push the left analog in that direction to reduce line tension
by a bit.
As you catch fish, you earn FP. You can apply this to upgrade stats on
your fishing rod. These stats are Flight, Strength, Resillience, Grip, and
Luck. Flight and Grip are mostly meaningless, but the other three count
for a lot. Generally, you want to have Luck be higher than Resillience,
and Resillience higher than Strength. For the Lure Rod, Luck and Strength
should be about on par. 100 FP equals one stat point upgrade.
Flight - How far you can cast the line, in meters.
Strength - How big a fish you can handle.
Resillience - How strong the line is.
Grip - How much the controller vibrates when getting a bite.
Luck - Odds of fish type and size, as well as bite rate.
Certain fish will only bite for certain bait and lures. As well, some can
only be found in certain areas. Non-ocean fishing will always potentially
catch Gummy fish, while ocean fishing can always result in catching a Bon.
These are what you might call the reject fish.

The Lure Rod works a bit differently. What you can catch depends on the
lure type.
Lure Fish that like it
Frog ?
Minnow Baku Baku, Den, Hama Hama, Kaji
Spinner Baku Baku, Tarton
Fork Baron Garayan
How you move the lures determines how tempted the fish are by them. The
frog and fork are used the same way, by doing 3-5 jerky left or right
movements, pausing, reeling in a bit, and repeating in the other direction,
until you get a bite. The minnow and spinner lures are used in quick and
spastic left-right-reel-in movements. The spinner should be reeled in a
bit longer than the minnow, however.
The Garayans are special cases on how to catch them. Mardan Garayans only
appear between 6PM and 6AM in the Fish Monster Swamp, in King Mardan's
pond. Baron Garayan only appears between 4PM and 9PM in Heim Rada's hot
springs pond. As well, you can only catch Umadakaras on the last four
levels of Starlight Canyon. Everything else is non-time-sensitive.
Spheda [GDSPHEDA]
--==
Spheda is a golf-like minigame that you can play from mid-chapter 3
onward. It's a bit tricky to get used to, but I'll explain it as best I
can here.
The Basics:
Spheda involves shooting spheres into distortions. The gimmick to this is
that the sphere must be the opposite color of the distortion for it to go
in. To change a sphere's color, just hit it hard enough against the ground
or a wall. You have a limited number of shots to get the sphere into the
distortion, so you have to take care in how you plan your shots out.
The sphere can only be hit with Spheda clubs, and there are 6 of them:
Handy Stick, Turkey, Swan, Flamingo, Falcon, and Albatross. Their distance
capabilities improve as you go further up the list, but the margin of error
(explained next paragraph) decreases. The clubs also all experience a
better use of curve shots and topspin/backspin as you go further up, with
one exception: Swan is the worst curve-hitter. Choose your Spheda club
according to what you're comfortable with. The Turkey has the best balance
overall of ability and margin of error, while the Flamingo sacrifices some
flexibility but gives better ability. Falcon and Albatross are for very
skilled players only.
Margin of error is an important factor in choosing your Spheda club. You
have a certain range on the power gauge that you have to hit the sphere in
to get a proper shot, with a perfect hit meaning a 10% bonus to distance
shot. There is a red area around the good shot area for flubbed shots,
where angle and power are slightly miffed. the rest of the gauge, if shot
from, will cause a totally random and generally very weak shot.
If you accidentally choose to make a shot, simply don't press X. The
gauge will fill and empty, and you'll be left with the same number of shots
that you had before.
The minimap is invaluable in Spheda, as it shows you not only exactly
where the sphere and distortion are (as well as what color each is), but
also how your shot is going to behave within a small range of where you hit
it. The sphere will always blink on the minimap, which can be helpful in
locating it if you choose not to move to the sphere. You can move the map
when in shot mode with the d-pad.
Advanced Spheda:
The distance the sphere will go when hit is indicated approximately by the
label on the gauge. But be aware that that's how far the sphere will go
before it hits the ground again; it does not account for how far the sphere
will bounce afterwards. Generally speaking, the sphere bounces 50-100%
further than listed, depending on how hard you hit it and if it hits the
ground when it lands. You can dampen or enhance this effect with backspin
and topspin, respectively. A full topspin adds 50 to 150% of the effect of
the distance the sphere will cover when it hits the ground, and a full
backspin recoils it from 50 to 150%, both depending on the club used and
shot angle.
Sometimes it's handy to be able to curve a shot, such as when there is a
wall in the way. Full-power curved shots can angle the ball between 12.5
and 57.5 degrees (25% to 75% angle change), depending on the club used, in
an arc that changes along the path of how far you shot the sphere. This is
exceptionally useful when there are a lot of really small corners between
you and the distortion (which happens a lot), and when the sphere is just
far enough from a corridor that it can't be shot straight down it.
If you can't reach the sphere for some reason, but it's not flagged as
"off course" by the game, you have to move it by standing near the sphere
and pressing Square. This will cost you 1 shot, unless you have only one
shot left. Note that you can move the sphere this way any time, and always
get a free move if there's one shot left. This can be very helpful when
you are given a 1-shot goal, but the sphere is not quite lined up right
with the goal.
Shooting through "void" areas in Rainbow Butterfly Woods and Starlight
Canyon is tricky, and you have to apply backspin and distance gauging to
the utmost in these cases. In the forest in particular, you have to also
be careful of the many trees in the void area that can knock the sphere all
over the place. Take very careful aim before you shoot across the
non-traversible areas.
Note that there are, in fact, truly impossible Spheda setups. In the case
of these, just grin and bear it, redo the level, and hope for a better
setup next time.
Applied Tactics:
So the obvious question is, how do you apply all of this to how you play?
Well, it's really quite easy. First off, you need to get a feel for the
distances you can hit. This is facilitated by the fact that you're always
told how far away the distortion is. As a general rule of thumb, the dots
you see projecting your shot on the minimap represent approximately 32m (I
stress "approximately"). For a straight shot with all land between
intended destination and current location, it's a simple matter of figuring
out how far the sphere needs to go, dividing that by 2, and hitting the
sphere for about that much on the gauge. For example, say you need to go
about 150m, and your power shot is 112m. 150m divided by 2 is 75m, which
is about 66% of the shot gauge. Simple enough, yes? The flatter your shot
arc is, the more distance it will bounce, so you need to apply more power
for upwards-arcing shots.
Now, suppose you're working in a more limited area, where you can't have
the sphere bouncing around all over the place. In these cases, you'll want
to employ backspin. Based on your club's abilities and the distance, you
can make a reasonable estimate of how much backspin you'll need to apply to
get the sphere to more or less stop when it lands. But this is where
things get tricky. Let's say we have to cover 56m with 112m power shot.
Well, that means a half gauge shot, right? But bouncing will cause it to
drop into the "off course" area! We could do a 25% power shot (and risk it
going just out of bounds), or we could do a 50% shot with about 50-66%
power backspin, causing it to stop (and possibly recoil a little bit) when
it reaches the goal distance. It's best to have a slight margin of error
in these cases. And keep in mind, the harder you hit the sphere, the less
backspin you want to use, as it can potentially recoil almost back to where
you shot it from!
Topspin's application is very obvious. If there's a straightaway that
your club wouldn't quite be able to hit all the way down (say 250m with a
112m power shot), topspin is your friend. A little topspin goes a long
way, though; like backspin, the more power you use, the less topspin you
want to apply. If you give the sphere too much topspin for the distance,
you'll end up having it strike a wall and fly back at you, or go out of
bounds in some areas! Topspin is very rarely needed, so don't feel in any
way obligated to use it.
So, how about curved shots? Simple application, really. Gauge how much
of an angle you need, keep in mind how much of an angle your club can
handle, and curve that shot accordingly. It's very logical, actually. It
shouldn't take more than 2 or 3 curved shots with a club to get a feel for
how it handles hooks and slices. Just remember, you press left on the
analog stick to slice a shot right, and right on the analog to hook a shot
left! Don't mix them up, unless you want a flubbed shot!
Now then, there's four possible scenarios for the goal shot, two of which
are for all intents and purposes identical. These scenarios are: one shot
left, same color distortion; multiple shots left, same color distortion;
one shot left, different color distortion; and multiple shots left,
different color distortion. Here's what to do...
Same color, multiple hits: Obviously, you need to get the sphere to change
colors first. You can either bounce it off a wall or the floor into the
distortion, or bounce it off a wall or the floor so it's the other color.
For details on the former tactic, see the next possibility.
Same color, one hit left: Like above, but you have to get it into the
distortion with your hit. For floor hits, try to have at least 24m between
you and the goal before trying bouncing it, and shoot 10-16% under power,
so the sphere will bounce. Wall-bouncing is tricky, and best when you're
close to the distortion (so you can check the effects with the simulated
shot dots). Remember, inconvenient positioning can be corrected with the
Square button to move the sphere.
Different color: Regardless of hits left, just hit the sphere into the
distortion. Try to give an additional 10-25% power from the listed
distance to goal, though; otherwise, the sphere might hit the ground and
change colors before it reaches the goal, which is not good. Also, don't
go over 40% above the needed power, or the sphere will probably soar OVER
the distortion.
That about covers it! Hopefully, Spheda will not seem so daunting now!
Fishing Contest [GDCONTEST]
--==
Not exactly complicated. Just take a few really big fish and weigh them
in. You can't use any fish whose weight is known, so aquarium-fed fish are
a no-no. The prizes are generally not worth the trouble. Only your best
three fish count for your final score, as well, so don't bother entering
10 fish unless you really have no idea which ones are biggest.
Finny Frenzy [GDFINNY]
--==
You have to participate in this if you want to recruit Olivie. As a
general rule of thumb, your competing fish should have at least 20 Boost,
Endurance, and Stamina over the previous racing class to win it, starting
at 20 for beginner class. How you should choose to push your fish depends
on its stats. If its Endurance is abnormally high, go for With All Your
Might. If it has good Boost, but low Endurance, go for The Last Shall
Be First. If Endurance and Boost are both decent, go for Come Out
Fighting. If stats are more or less average, go for Keep a Steady Pace.
Settle it in the Ring is only useful if your fish is especially strong and
tenacious, and is generally not the best way to win a race. Go With the
Middle is only useful if you're after a non-first-place prize.
The Ridepod ~ Steve [GDRIDEPOD]
==--
The Ridepod can prove central to how you play the game, since you can
pretty much build all of its weapons (unlike Max and Monica's weapons,
which mostly have to be leveled up). This covers all of the aspects of the
Ridepod: the weapons, armor, legs, energy packs, and upgrades it can have,
as well as how to use it effectively in battle.
Weapons:
There are two classes of weapon, and several variations of each. The
classes are short-range and long-range. Short-range includes Cannonball
Arms, Clown Hands, Samurai Arms, Hammer Arms, and Drill Arms. Long-range
includes Barrel Cannons, Machine Gun Arms, Missile Pod Arms, Nova Cannons,
and Laser Arms. Each weapon type has four variations.

Upgrades:
Core Upgrades - These are upgrades to how much Steve can have put on him.
You have to buy the cores in order.
Core (you start with it) - 60 capacity, 12 extra armor capacity
Improved Core (900 exp) - 90 capacity, 24 extra armor capacity
Core II (1400 exp) - 120 capacity, 36 extra armor capacity
Core III (2000 exp) - 160 capacity, 48 extra armor capacity
Super Core (3500 exp) - 200 capacity, 60 extra armor capacity
Hyper Core (5000 exp) - 240 capacity, 72 extra armor capacity
Master Grade Core (6500 exp) - 300 capacity, 84 extra armor capacity
Shield Kits - These add 4 extra armor to the Ridepod each, and allow it to
have even better defense than Max and Monica, in the long run. They cost
600, 660, 726, 798, 878, 966, 1062, 1169, 1286, 1414, 1556, 1711, 1883,
2071, 2278, 2506, 2756, 3032, 3335, 3669, and 4036 exp. You can only buy
one at a time.
Voice Unit (1000 exp) - This lets Steve say stuff. Unfortunately, none of
what he says is of any use, and it's generally just annoying. It can be
disabled by selecting Voice Off from the current Ridepod core in the Items
section of the menu.
Using Steve in Battle:
Using the Ridepod effectively means avoiding damage while dishing plenty
of it out. To this end, the best tactic is to do hit-and-run attacks. For
close-range arms, move in close, hit 3 times while circling the target,
then back off to avoid counter attack. Repeat as necessary. For long-
range weapons, dodge around the enemy while firing, and avoid staying in
one place for long.
Early on, Steve moves only about as fast as Max and Monica. That being
so, when not fighting enemies, run around on foot as Max. When you see an
enemy approaching, switch back to the Ridepod and take care of them. Once
you have the Roller Foot or better, this is not an issue.
The best weapons for Steve are the Samurai Arms, Barrel Cannons, and Nova
Cannons. Samurai Arms have the best balance of speed and damage for close-
range attacks, while Barrel Cannons dominate early on with their range and
power. The Nova Cannons replace Barrel Cannons around chapter 5, but have
a slight delay before firing.
Whenever Steve is getting low on energy or WHP, go talk to Cedric and have
him repair the Ridepod parts. He'll repair all Ridepod weapons and
replenish all energy for the Ridepod, free of charge. Note that he must
not be in the party if you're on chapters 2, 3, or 4 to do this. Just take
him out, repair and upgrade, then put him back in.
Monster Transformation [GDTRANSFO]
==--
Monster Transformation is generally not worth bothering with, save for the
medals you can gain by using it in some areas. The problem is that the
transformations are grossly underpowered compared to anything else you can
use to attack with in the game. Anyway, for those utterly determined, here
is a list of all the badges and transformations. Stats listed for classes
are their stats at level 99. You can change a monster's form at levels
26, 51, and 76. Upon mastering a monster class (ie. transforming into the
final form of the path you choose), you receive 5 gemstones; what type you
receive depends on the monster class you level up (list will be forthcoming
as soon as I figure out what they all are).

ON LEVELING UP: Each time you level up a monster's form to a new one, you
get a Monster Drop. These are fairly useless items you can synth onto your
weapons for way too much SP for the bonuses they provide. Also, you cannot
choose to go back a level, so pick your path wisely. You can choose to use
any of the forms of a monster you have access to. The level-up curve is
essentially identical to the weapon one, with a base value of 100 ABS (so
it would go 100, 100, 200, 400, 600, 800, 1600, etc.). This is a very bad
thing, since it takes around half a million ABS to get any monster to
level 99.

IV. Secrets and Misc.

Lots of games have hidden things in them, or little exploits that make
them easier. Dark Cloud 2 is no exception. This section covers all of the
things you can do to make your Dark Cloud 2 experience more enjoyable.
Glitches and Exploits [SMGLITCH]
==--
Photo Album Exploit
Any photos you save to the Photo Album can be loaded in any save with the
Photo Album item (which can be obtained early in chapter 2). This means
that you can invent excellent items very early on during replays, by
storing the most useful photos in the album and then extracting them from
the album and inventing with them. The album can hold up to 50 photos.
Photo Album Key Shots:
Deer Horn
Drum Can
Electric Sesame
Energy Pipe
Figure
Flower Chandelier
Generator
Geyser
Hand-Sewn Silk Flag
Horn
Light of Luna Stone
Moon Column
Pot Torch
Power Arm
Relaxation Fountain
Transmission Device
Special Peking Duck
Stove
Water Tank
Windmill
Windmill Feather
Work Crane
*A Surviving Soldier
*Flotsam, Revived!
*Legend of the Moon
*Paznos
*Puppet Shingala
*Spinning Ivanoff
Key Inventions:
- Samurai Arm III [Deer Horn & Moon Column & Weapon]
- Samurai Arm IV [*A Surviving Soldier & *Flotsam, Revived! &
*Legend of the Moon]
- Barrel Cannon III [Barrel & Water Tank & Waterfall]
- Nova Cannon III [Moon Column & Stove & The Sun]
- Nova Cannon IV [Pot Torch & The Sun & *Flotsam, Revived!]
- Propeller Leg [Cart & Fan & Windmill Feather]
- Jet Hover [Candle & Fire House & Relaxation Fountain]
- Energy Pack (Urn) [Energy Pipe & Generator & Pot]
- Triple-Urn Pack [Flower Chandelier & Light of Luna Stone & Pot]
- Sun & Moon Armor [Electric Sesame & The Moon & The Sun]
- Ruler's Sword [Figure & Iron Maiden & *Paznos]
- Dark Viper [Rifle & *Night Stalker & *Puppet Shingala]
- Soul Breaker [Energy Pipe & Geyser & Transmission Device]
- Heavy Hammer [Drum Can & Power Arm & *Paznos]
- Steal Gun [Book & Fountain & Work Crane]
- Turkey [Special Peking Duck & Tree & Windmill Feather]
- Sand Breaker [Hand-Sewn Silk Flag & Horn & *Spinning Ivanoff]
Name-Change Ticket Exploit
This is a highly intentional exploit, as is the photo album. Using a
Name-Change Ticket, you can name any weapon whatever you want. If you name
a weapon the exact same name as another weapon (say, LEGEND or Island King,
for example), they will transform into a minimum-stats version of that
weapon. The game does take notice of the fact that you used a Name-Change
Ticket, though: the weapon's name is listed in [] brackets.
Turkey Exploit
Simple enough. Invent a Turkey Spheda club (Special Peking Duck, Tree,
Windmill Feather), then build it out of 3 Rolling Logs and 3 Scraps of
Metal. This will cost you 90 Gilda. But Turkeys sell for 230 Gilda. So
you'll make a profit off of each Turkey made and sold.
Underground Channel Lock-up Glitch
If you go to Ghost in the Channel immediately after completing Battle with
Rats, the game will lock up on a Now Loading screen. To avoid this, be
sure you visit Donny and save there before moving to Ghost in the Channel.
You may have to redo Battle with Rats, too. Pressing L3 and R3 on the Now
Loading sometimes helps, for some inexplicable reason.
Spheda Glitch
This is pretty rare, but sometimes the sphere will be placed almost next
to the distortion, with about 15 hits. If you're lucky enough to have this
happen to you, be thankful, as you'd have to try to fail with that setup.
Lure Glitch
Equip any Lure to the Lure Rod, and make sure you have an extra one in
your inventory. Go to either the Ridepod or Monica's stat screen, and
start telling the game to equip the Lure that's already on the Lure Rod to
it. Each time you do this, another copy of the Lure is put on the rod.
You can have up to 999 of them on there at once, but don't go over that or
the count will reset. Each Lure sells for 100 Gilda, so you can make a
very nice profit doing this.
Poison Apple Glitch
If you poison a large group of enemies in a closed-wall dungeon (like the
Underground Channel or Ocean's Roar Cave), then move away from the enemies,
you'll still see damage numerals popping up where the enemies are. This
sometimes even causes the walls to flicker with random graphical garbage.
Fortunately, there don't appear to be any actual negative side-effects of
this on the game.
Invention Building Glitch
The game sometimes locks up when building inventions in dungeons. It's in
your best interests to build items out of dungeons.
Synthsphere Combos [SMSYNTH]
==--
Synthspheres are the key to making powerful weapons. The key to making
good Synthspheres is to take into consideration the limits of both your
target weapon and the weapon you're preparing for a Synthsphere, and work
within those limits. For example, you wouldn't want to Synthsphere a
Supernova onto a Battle Wrench; most of the stats would be lost.
Synthsphere weapons should use crystals and other stat-boosting items to
power them up, while your primary weapons (the recipients of the
Synthsphere'd weapons) should only be powered by Synthspheres. Below is a
list of the most effective combos.
Battle Wrench+14 -> True Battle Wrench+5
