This guide was created in order to help people find at least one of every
item in the game, and obtain everything that can be permanently lost.
This guide was designed to do the following things:
- Guide people towards the end of the game, in a fashion that allows them
to pick up every single item that cannot be retrieved at a later date.
- To enlighten the player about every item that has limited use and/or
limited availability, and ensure that the player can achieve a
"perfect file" with whatever attention to detail such a thing might
require.
I have created an Excel spreadsheet that contains 'checklists' as it
were, that allow you to keep track of which Ethers and Skills each
character has learned, as well as an inventory checklist to make sure
you get your hands on every last item in the game.
The spreadsheet also allows the player to track the changes they make to
their character's statistics. These spreadsheets project those changes
over the course of 99 levels and display what your character's maximum
statistics will be at level 99. These sheets go hand-in-hand with my
Statistics Guide.
Feel free to e-mail me for this Spreadsheet:

One note before beginning: Any PS3 units that use the emulation software
instead of the PS2's actual Emotion Engine cannot play Xenosaga: Episode
I: Der Wille zur Macht properly. Upon entering the Robot Academy in the
Kukai Foundation, your game will freeze. This prevents you from getting
quite a few items. The rest of the game, however, is fine to play.
I hope for your sake, you have a PS2 and/or the PS2 memory card adaptor.
Now, onto the Missable Items Guide.

I'm making sure that you get everything there is to get in this game.
Scout's honour.
First thing's first, though.
I will not point out the locations of stupid items like Med Kits and
stuff that is always purchaseable. If it's a one-time-only chest, or
one-time-only destructible cannister, then yeah, I'll point it out, but
I'm not going to point out the location of every destructible object in
the game.
Although this is not an e-mail FAQ, or a Decoder FAQ, I have chosen to
include all of them, simply because it will be too frustrating and/or
annoying to pass back and forth between several guides to see which
ones you've obtained, and which ones you've missed.
Everything will be listed chronologically, with 'event' triggers between
each item to signify how far you are in the area. The game is very
touchy with its windows of opportunity.
For your convenience, I have included a section called "Skill Check" that
helps you to choose which Skills to extract, in order to maintain S.Pts
efficiency. I will also track how many Upgrade items you should have
accumulated by now.
A certain boss towards the end of the game holds the Soul and Spirit, the
male and female counterparts of some very interesting end-game armour.
While the third Soul and Spirit are missable, it should be noted that you
never need more than 2 of each. The only males that can equip the Soul
are Jr. and chaos, and the only females that can equip the Spirit are
Shion and MOMO. It is entirely up to you if you want to be bothered
attempting it. Frankly, the only inconvenience in attempting this is
learning and transferring Psycho Pocket.
In order to steal 3 of each, we need Shion equipped with the White Ring,
and MOMO in the party (although, you can sub out Shion for chaos or Jr.)
MOMO and the second person (who has 8 Agility without equipment) will
need to have the Psycho Pocket Ether transferred to them. You will also
need MOMO's Dark Scepter (so Mintia will have to be defeated before you
take out Gigas). Because of this, Shion makes a better candidate for
MOMO's partner in crime. You will be better off using 3 females against
Mintia (she hates males and will deal more damage).
I will explain the course of action when the Gigas fight arrives towards
the end of the game. Just do your best to follow the Skill Check
sections, which also recommend Ethers.
By default and for purpose of simplicity, I chose Shion as MOMO's partner
in crime. Any Skills I suggest extracting for these two, I also suggest
for anyone else you use in combat. Feel free to dip into your Skill,
Ether, or Tech Point Stocks anytime. Just remember the Ether Upgrade Z
and Tech Upgrade Z items cannot be obtained again once you use them, so
I'd advise against using them.
As a rule of thumb, I will suggest a couple of things:
ANALYZE EVERYTHING YOU SEE, THE FIRST TIME YOU SEE IT, INCLUDING BOSSES
AND THEIR MINIONS!
STEAL FROM EVERY BOSS, AND EVERY UNIQUE-LOOKING MONSTER YOU COME ACROSS!
IF YOU PLAN ON KEEPING ALL OF THE PROMOTIONAL (PM CARD) CARDS IN YOUR
INVENTORY, RATHER THAN UNWRAPPING THEM FOR THE XENOCARD GAME, BUT YOU
ALSO WANT TO GET AS MANY XENOCARDS AS POSSIBLE FROM STARTER PACKS, AND
CARD PACK # 1 and 2, BUY THE STARTER PACKS and CARD PACKS AND UNWRAP
AS MANY AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN BEFORE GETTING YOUR FIRST PM CARD. ONCE
YOU'RE HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU'VE GOT IN YOUR XENOCARD DECK, START COLLECTING
PM CARDS.
/end annoying
On that note, let's begin.
===============================[ Items List ]=================================
---------------------------------[ 06.ILs ]-----------------------------------
If you're ever in a panic about having missed something, check here to make
sure you can get another copy of it later. If that is the case, you can
rest easy knowing it's not a huge deal that you missed it.
The following is a list of every item in the game that cannot be missed,
and where to get it. Another list will follow of the elusive items, and
their locations.
Take note that when I list an item as a 'drop', it may also be a rare
drop. By using the various Steal Ethers in the game ("Queen's Kiss" and
"Psycho Pocket"), you will attempt to steal from the group of items that
an enemy will drop. These are also "steal items" by default.
Items with an [I] across from them can be obtained infinitely.
Items with an [X] across from them are only obtainable at the places
described beside them.
If an item can be obtained infinitely, I will not list places where the
item is found elsewhere. I will also not list items if they are dropped
by an enemy who has a limited appearance, unless it is the only enemy
that drops the item.

+-Point Check-------------------------------------------------[ 07.Pnt ]-+
| |
| While Shion is here, have her pick up the EVA+2 Skill from KOS-MOS' |
| Kobold Ring. This will come in handy for quite some time. |
| |
| SP Stock = 0 Pts. |
| |
| Also, make sure you spend 40 E.Pts as soon as possible to teach Shion |
| the Analyze Ether. |
| |
| Start taking the "Goodbye" branch of her Ether tree, as well. Before |
| you encounter the Minotaur boss, it is optimal to have the Queen's |
| Kiss ether, which will cost us a total of 620 E.Pts. |
| |
| By repeatedly killing the Drone G2 enemy on the second floor of the |
| warehouse, you can get a minimum of 8 E.Pts per fight for Shion as |
| long as you always kill them on the Point Bonus slot. This amounts to |
| 78 fights, but you'll get lucky and get a few x4 Bonuses in there, |
| which will drastically cut down the time it takes to grind. Not to |
| mention, the T.Pts to Exp ratio isn't too bad, either. You can sync |
| Shion's stats up with KOS-MOS without a lot of difficulty. |

+-End Point Check--------------------------------------------------------+
While neither of the following items on the list are permanently missable,
they fall under my list of important mentionables. Well, the Battle
Passport not so much, but what the heck.
SEGMENT ADDRESS # 10
- The Segment Door is in the simulator. Head down the ladder after
defeating the Drone SPX.
EVENT - Drone GX is defeated, and Shion exits the simulator.
PASSPORT
- After leaving the simulator, head right back in. Go back to the room
where you just defeated the Drone GX, and pick up the Battle Passport
from the red box.
================================[ Woglinde ]==================================
---------------------------------[ 08.Wog ]-----------------------------------
+-Point Check-------------------------------------------------[ 08.Pnt ]-+
| |
| There's nothing Shion really needs to learn here, and, unfortunately, |
| the Drone G2 enemies didn't drop any Skill points. |
| |
| Shion: 50 S.Pts : S.Lvl 1 |
| |
| At the end of the Woglinde event, make sure Shion has Queen's Kiss and |
| steal both the Skill Upgrade S and Z from Minotaur. |

| SP Stock = 150 Pts. A x 0, S x 1, Z x 1 |

E-MAIL
- You must speak to the man in the orange clothing at the eastern exit of
the Hanger, which contains the Zohar Emulator. Accept both of his
propositions to receive E-mail when prompted, or you will lose out on
e-mails (Namco junk mail) that cannot be retreived.
EVENT - Shion mentions she must go to her quarters to retreive the Realian
Data.
SEGMENT ADDRESS # 18
- This door is on the way to Shion's room. You can't miss it.
E-MAIL - cannot be missed----------------------------[5 received][5 total]
- An e-mail from Miyuki.
E-MAIL----------------------------------[6 received + 1 response][7 total]
- Immediately after meeting Virgil in the Realian Infirmary, you will
be outside the room, to the north. Return to the infirmary, and head
south. You will be prompted to assist Vector in tracking and capturing
a hacker. This is a game-wide E-mail chain. Accept, or you will not be
able to receive a cash prize later in the game.
PASSPORT
- On the bridge that is covered with debris, you will be asked to play
a Drilling Mini-Game. By completing the game successfully now, you
will receive the passport. If not, you will be forced to return here
by way of EVS and obtain it from a sparkling object on the ground.

- You are alerted that the Database is online.
E-MAIL--------------------------------[8 received + 2 responses][10 total]
- To the north of Mr. Driller and the Drilling Mini-Game, you will be in
a long hallway. To the left of the Naval Officer looking at the map on
the wall, there is a small lounge area with blue couches. Walk in here
to receive an E-mail from Miyuki regarding the development of a new
weapon for KOS-MOS. Accept Miyuki's proposition immediately.
SEGMENT ADDRESS # 7
- This door is found to the immediate right of Sgt. Swaine.
E-MAIL--------------------------------[9 received + 2 responses][11 total]
- To the right of Sgt. SWaine is an E-mail from Namco about one of their
games.
SHOP INVENTORY
- The shop is found north of Sgt. Swaine, in the AGWS Hangar.
- This shop will disappear permanently after the Woglinde: Invasion
sequence, along with the Uniform item. Buy as many as you need now, or
they're gone for good.
EVENT - Shion relays the KOS-MOS test data to the captain of the Woglinde.
E-MAIL-------------------------------[10 received + 2 responses][12 total]
- Immediately after talking to the Captain about KOS-MOS test data,
Miyuki will send Shion an e-mail about the Sprinkle Plug-In. Download
it as soon as you receive the e-mail.
E-MAIL-------------------------------[11 received + 3 responses][14 total]
- AS soon as you return to the main floor from the Bridge VIA the
elevator, head East, and turn north when the corridor bends. Stay to
the left of the first Holographic planter you run past. You will get
an E-mail that requests 500g for investment purposes. Accept, and
choose whichever company you desire. Investing in Vector will result
in 5 Ether Pack S and gaining the F-BSHOT earlier.
SEGMENT ADDRESS # 16
- To the north of the previous e-mail and just west around the bend,
there is another Segment Address to be found, diagonally from the room
where two officers are making out.
E-MAIL-------------------------------[12 received + 3 responses][15 total]
- Return to the room where KOS-MOS is being held in stasis. Running
along the western wall in the room will get you another Namco game
advertisement.

DECODER # 18
- This is found in the room where the two lovers were previously making
out. There is a Gnosis trapped behind glass. You can attempt to break
the glass and dodge the Gnosis, but it's tricky. Wait until the Gnosis
materialize, and come back here after the Cyclops boss battle.
DECODER # 7
- As you progress through the area, you will encounter Sgt. Swaine again.
He will give you this Decoder.
ITEM - SEGMENT ADDRESS # 7
- Just inside the door, you'll find a chest.
- Your reward is the Robot Part - Right Arm
EVENT - The party defeats the Cyclops boss. The Gnosis materialize.
ITEM - SEGMENT ADDRESS # 18
- After defeating the Cyclops boss, you will be near Shion's room. Just
continue east, and head north when you see 3 Gremlins (tadpole lookin'
things) gnawing on a downed A.G.W.S. unit.
- The Coat-Lightning accessory is your reward.
ANALYSIS
- The Sky Fish present with the Minotaur are not the same models found
towards the later parts of the game. If you do not analyze them now,
you can never get their analysis data for the U.M.N. Database.

| Have MOMO extract the Poison Guard skill from the Snake Hunter Item. |
| Ziggy can just keep the Snake Hunter equipped for now. |
| |
| SP Stock = 150 Pts. A x 0, S x 1, Z x 1 |
| |
| Make sure that Ziggy picks up the Ether Upgrade S (x2) in the first |
| area of Pleroma, before he becomes un-stealthed. Although there is an |
| Ether Upgrade Z in the Church, it is a missable item, and thusly, we |
| shouldn't use it if we want to have at least 1 in our inventory. |

+-End Point Check--------------------------------------------------------+
DECODER # 11
- In the middle of the room that has 5 guards patrolling (1 in each corner
of the room, around a lantern, and 1 more in the middle of the room),
there is a destructible box. Blow that up and open the chest for
Decoder 11.
SEGMENT ADDRESS # 4
- In the same room where you find Decoder # 11, head northwest. In the
corner is a destructible wall-unit covering a door. Behind the door
is a chest with the Snake Hunter, but also Segment Address # 4.
DECODER # 4
- Notice the AGWS Ziggy wants to avoid fighting? That's because the sneaky
bugger has Decoder # 4 on him. The fight is a little rough for Ziggy and
MOMO, and a lot tougher for Ziggy alone. I'd come back with the EVS
plate when you have more party members to sop up the damage and Exp.
ITEM - SEGMENT ADDRESS # 4
- Now that you have both the Decoder and the Segment Address location,
go get that Thief Ring.
NOTE: Remember, if you don't pick up the Decoder and Segment Address # 4,
it isn't gone for good. I'm just listing the Segment Addresses
because the accessories are almost always useful.
NOTE: If you are stat-maxing, forget about defeating Margulis, he's
wasted Experience points. If not, take note that Margulis drops
the Red Ring or Purple Ring (rare), so you can instantly make use
of the Thief Ring (+10% rare drop rate). Good luck beating him,
he's one hell of a challenge. If you need to beat him (for whatever
reason), equip the Coat-Lightning item that you found in Segment
Address # 18. It'll help immensely.

Before getting too far into this area, make sure you have 1000g handy.
Use the UMN plug-in to get some money in old areas. Just make sure you
actually do it. NOW!

Mission 1, and go right to Mission 2 for the Yamato Belt. Also, play

| our hard-earned items at this stage of the game, but Jr. really |

SEGMENT ADDRESS # 11
- Once you get the keycard to open door #4 (the large red double-doors to
the east of where Jr. initially entered), continue east to the far end
of the hallway. Inside the room at the northeastern corner of this area
is the 11th Segment Address. You should already have the Decoder from
the Pleroma segment. You'll know you're in the right room when you're
automatically attacked by an U-Tic soldier.
ITEM - SEGMENT ADDRESS # 11
- Enjoy your Coat-Ice item. It will help in the next dungeon.
ITEM
- Find the U-TIC card in the very southern end of the Battleship area. Go
as far south as you can go, past an AGWS hangar, past two soldiers,
and before the first planter, to the room on the eastern wall. The U-Tic
card is in a chest inside a destructible container.
- Now head north, and before Door 5, head right. Past the cubby-hole that
previously had 2 soldiers in it, but now contains a robot crab, and to
the door on the eastern wall. You will be required to press "O" on the
card reader. Enter the room and obtain Decoder 16.
- Please note that if you do not get the U-Tic card, enter the room and
get Decoder 16 on your first run through here, the Decoder and the
contents of Segment Address 16 are permanently lost.
DECODER # 16
- Thanks to the glitch, this Decoder is missable. Make sure you get this
on your first pass by using the instructions above.
NOTE
- There you have it, the U-Tic door is the glitched door of legend, and it
can never bother you again. Sigh a breath of relief, because you no
longer have to worry about a glitch messing up your game.
- Thanks to Crazy4Metroid for confirming it was the U-Tic door and not the
Segment Address that was glitched.

engages the Ambix security system.

MISSABLE ITEMS FROM SHOPS
Now here is where the game gets weird. At almost every point that something
significant happens in the story, every shop's inventory gets packed full
with all sorts of goodies. In order to keep their inventory flowing, the
old stuff has got to go...So, keep on your toes, or you're going to miss
something.
There are going to be a lot of times that items disappear, so you have to
be careful while reading this guide. Up until now, we've been lucky to
be able to take our sweet time while purchasing, but we don't get that
comfort anymore if we want to have a little bit of everything.
Before you leave the Dock Colony, make sure to purchase the A.G.W.S.
tune-ups from the "Talk To Me" shop. They will play an integral role in
the upcoming boss fight.
EVENT - Shion talks to Matthews and asks him to depart.

---------------------------------[ 14.CSh ]-----------------------------------
+-Point Check-------------------------------------------------[ 14.Pnt ]-+
| |
| The first thing you're going to find here in the destructible rocks is |
| the Nightwalker helmet. Extract this as soon as possible. |
| |
| Until then, your skill set-up should be Poison Guard, PDEF Guard, and |
| EVA+2. |
| |
| Once you get the Nightwalker extracted, replace EVA+2 with Sleep Guard,|
| and equip your third member with the Nightwalker. |
| |
| Gear set-up on everybody should be Stylish Armor, Space Helmet |
| (Nightwalker on one who hasn't extracted yet), and Guard Pendant. |
| This should make most of the fights in here a cake-walk. |
| |
| There are a ton of Skill, Ether, and Tech Upgrades throughout this |
| area, and the Svarozic (Tech Upgrade S, Tech Upgrade Z), Perun (Ether |
| Upgrade S, Ether Upgrade Z), and Stribog (Skill Upgrade S, Skill |
| Upgrade Z) encounters are worth stealing from (As you can see). |
| Make sure you get both Upgrades off each boss. That's a lot of good |
| stuff. |
| |
| You can pick up a total of Skill Upgrade A (x10), |
| Ether Upgrade A (x2), and Tech Upgrade A (x2). |
| |
| SP Stock = 600 Pts. A x 25, S x 3, Z x 2 |
| |
| EP Stock = 650 Pts. A x 20, S x 9, Z x 2 |
| |
| TP Stock = 110 Pts. A x 6, S x 1, Z x 2 |
| |
| It is also worth noting that during the fight with the Gargoyle boss, |
| he will cast "Lost" (this game's equivalent of Silence) on you. |
| It may be worth extracting "Lost Guard" from the Magical Hat before |
| the fight. I do understand if that's a lot to ask, though, because the |
| enemies in this area aren't exactly packing a ton of Skill points. |
| |
| If you are in dire need of Skill points, however, you can either farm |
| the Fairy enemies, or steal and escape from the Ogres, who have a |
| Skill Upgrade A in their rare-item slot. |
| |
| You shouldn't necessarily require Lost Guard in the fight. Gargoyle |
| and his minions spend the first 5 minutes of the battle spamming |
| Hell's Flash, repeatedly, so by the time he gets around to casting |
| "Lost", you should have the items you want, and be piloting an |
| A.G.W.S. |

+-End Point Check--------------------------------------------------------+
ITEM
- While Svarozic does not appear in the Database, it is still possible
to defeat him without getting the lucrative Tech Upgrade Z item, which
is not in endless supply. He will permanently disappear once he is
killed. Make sure you nab his Tech Upgrade S item too, because it's
nice to have, and we can make use of it.

ITEM
- Svarozic's brother, Perun, appears only once during your first run
through the Cathedral Ship. He cannot be skipped, but if he doesn't
drop the Ether Upgrade Z, you miss having one more of them in the
inventory. Ether upgrade Z cannot be acquired in the end-stages of
the game from enemies. Make sure you steal his Ether Upgrade S. We'll
put it to work a while later.
ITEM
- After defeating the Hydra plants, grab the Flower Seed in the hall
behind it. The item itself is not missable, however, Luty progresses
her side-quest in stages, based on major events in the game. If you run
out of major events to push forward her progress, the quest cannot end.
It is best to get this out of the way as soon as possible. Much like the
Hazardous Area Map, if you want to keep this in your inventory, and
choose to opt out of finishing it for the Tech Upgrade Z (found
elsewhere), just don't talk to Luty again. I believe she'll take it, no
matter where you are in the game, regardless of whether or not the quest
can still be completed.
DECODER # 15
- The Hydra rewards you with tis Decoder.
SEGMENT ADDRESS # 13
- After you defeat Perun and the Hydra Plants, you are forced to wedge your
way through a corridor containing a wandering Cerberus. As you can see
below, there are a ton of destructible containers and a couple of tough-
looking enemies. Proceed around the ledge, and exit south-west. Hop on
the elevator, and enter that same room from the bottom-level. Once you
clear out the Unicorns (or if you're good enough at avoiding them, and
have plenty of EP to keep using "Goodbye" when they catch you), check
out this Segment Address on the right side of the northern wall.
ITEM
- Stribog will reappear in a subsequent visit, but only if he isn't killed
on the first trip. Again, if you defeat him without stealing his item,
the Skill Upgrade Z...well, it's not a huge loss, since they can be
looted endlessly at the end of the game, but it would be nice to have.
Like his brothers, steal his Skill Upgrade S item, just because you can.
DECODER # 9
- After defeating Stribog, you can access a Decoder, which belongs to
the Segment Address we're going to find in the next building.
SEGMENT ADDRESS # 9
- This is found on the third floor, on the right-hand side of the research
lab. You know you're in the right place, because you're up on the third
floor, blowing up the locks on the elevator.
ITEM - SEGMENT ADDRESS # 9
- Another seemingly useless item...
- Your reward is the Robot Part - Left Arm
ANALYSIS
- Analyze the Oudogogues during the encounter with the Gargoyle boss. This
enemy can never be encountered again, period.
ITEM
- Make sure that you steal from the Gargoyle boss and do not stop until
the Commander's Crest is successfully stolen. This is your only
opportunity to get it. I like to try and steal the Silver Crown just in
case, even though it drops after the fight. I would suggest using the
newly acquired "Magic Caster" tech with MOMO, and follow that up by
using "Queen's Kiss" with Shion. You should end up with both items on
your first try. Queen's Kiss *MAY* fail, but it shouldn't take more than
another try. Magic Caster can not fail, so that Commander's Crest is
yours.

After viewing the beginning cutscenes on the Durandal, do not do anything
to activate more cutscenes until you're 100% sure you have 6000g. If you

without an X or DX or MAX in front of it, basically) until you do. If
you're still short, you can get the Casino Passport (mentioned below),
or EVS dive and earn the cash the old-fashioned way.
PASSPORT
- Head to the very northern section of the residential area, and turn
right, into the games room. Open the chest for the Casino Passport.
Buy 1000 tokens, and play Poker. Once you've won about 5,000 tokens
on Hi-Lo, switch to slots. Once you get the hang of playing the slot
machines, you can turn those 5,000 tokens into 100,000 tokens in no
time flat. Sell all your Med Kits, Ether Packs, Revives and Cure-Alls.
Now purchase 99 Recovery Sets for 9900 Tokens, and sell aforementioned
items for about 11,000g profit. Now keep doing that. For a long time.
Earn as much money as you can possibly make before you can't stand it
anymore.

before level 20 (which hurts your stat maxing). On the other hand, he
drops the Swimsuit item (100% of the time). The Swimsuit item grants
25% more Tech Points to anyone wearing it, or using its extracted
skill. The best part is that it stacks with the item, so one lucky
person in your party receives 50% more Tech Points. This is a good way
to get your party members stat-synced. Just give the person with the
least amount of exp to the next level the Swimsuit, and right before
they level-up, boost all of their stats.
Although you lose 2 levels of Stat Gains (+12 to all stats,
theoretically), the amount of T.Pts you'll be gaining between levels
is well worth the trade-off.
The second option is to get another Swimsuit from the Driller Mini-
Game once you've completed the Encephalon: Miltia stage of the game,
and pick up the second Swimsuit during the Kukai Invasion. By giving
all three party members +25% T.Pts skill and 2 members the Swimsuits,
you'll more than make up for the boat-load of Experience Joe dishes
out.
It's entirely up to you, but I find that defeating him sooner, rather
than later, provides a much more gratifying victory. Although, keeping
an end-game save-file with Joe intact can come in handy if you ever
want to beat the snot out of a semi-tough enemy with your uber-stats.
- Either way, your reward for beating Great Joe is a Swimsuit item.
EVENT - Shion returns to the Residential Area to rest, and cutscenes
ensue.

NOTE
- Before heading into KOS-MOS' room, purchase 3 Guard Cleaner, 3 Guard
Recovery, and upgrade all of your A.G.W.S. This is your last chance to
visit a shop for a while. Purchase 6 HG75VX Handguns, too. They're the
cheapest upgrade and they pack quite a bit of power for the deal you
get. Since they're W-Act weapons, you'll want two on each A.G.W.S.
- Also make sure you update your armour. The game is about to ramp-up the
difficulty. Don't just buy 3 of everything, buy 6. You use all of your
characters throughout the area, so you don't want to leave any of your
group members underequipped. Make sure you have one Green Ring as well.
You should, since MOMO came with one equipped, and we agreed not to sell
anything that looked remotely valuable....right?

EVENT - Shion starts her scenario in the Park.
SEGMENT ADDRESS # 5
- Once you reach the shattered highway area, you'll notice a manhole
towards the end, instead of going down it, go past it, and blow up the
block near the Realian woman. Descend into the sewers, and run up the
stairs. Upon resurfacing, you'll be in the starting area again, but on
a lower level.
Defeat the purple Troll enemy, and open the door with Decoder # 5.
ITEM - SEGMENT ADDRESS # 5
- You are rewarded with the Double Buster. One of the most valuable
accessories in the game.
Return to the sewers, and back to the highway. Go down the first manhole
you discovered. While down here, make sure to kill the Sky Fish patroller
in front of an important-looking dashboard. Press the button to expose a
door. Even though Shion can't access it now, Jr. can in a few minutes.
EVENT - Jr.'s scenario continues.
SEGMENT ADDRESS # 15
- Once you reach the save-point inside the subway, head to the upper-most
turnstile, and head through it. Before entering the door, turn left, and
blow up the debris in the way. Then, shoot the glass window. Now go back,
enter the door, and run over to where the glass was just shattered. Now
you can see that there's a Segment Address hiding inside.
ITEM - SEGMENT ADDRESS # 15
- You are rewarded with the Angel Ring...Again, one of the most valuable
accessories in the game.
DECODER # 12
- Go through the door that Shion and chaos opened. The decoder is in the
chest.
EVENT - Shion's scenario continues.
ITEM
- In order to get the S. Carrot Juice item, you'll have to work your way
through the forest area, and blow up the wooden bridge in the same area
as Bunnie's house. Cross that bridge (near the Kobold), and enter the
cave. On the other side of the cave is a carrot patch with 4 carrots.
Pick up all 4. Now, go play the chase-game with Bunnie. It will take
some time and practise to know when to run and beat him to the door of
his house.
- TAKE NOTE, however, the mechanics of the S. Carrot Juice before beating
Bunnie at his own game. They will only spawn in groups of 4, if you have
exactly 0 in your inventory. Once you defeat Bunnie, you can never play
the game again. This means that once you beat Bunnie, however many
S.Carrot Juice you have is how many you're stuck with when you beat him.
The loophole is that if you have 0, you can go pick up 4 more, but you
can never use them. If you're really picky, use this method. If you're
happy having 1 ~ 3 in your inventory, then just beat him when you can.
At this point, I don't know if the 4 S. Carrot Juice items will respawn
if you defeat him with 0 in your inventory, leave the Encephalon, then
re-enter the area later. It's safest to do it in one shot if you can.
It's also good to point out that if you don't want to do this on your
first run through the Encephalon (while the enemies provide a threat to
your characters), you can just wait and come back later VIA EVS.
DECODER # 3
- The decoder is your prize for defeating Bunnie at his racing game.
ITEM
- When fighting the Tiamat boss, make sure you steal the Revenge Power
accessory from him. Once it's gone, it's gone for good.
NOTE - To make this fight easier, hop into your A.G.W.S. with all three
characters. Alternate between Guarding and W-ACT shooting with
all of the A.G.W.S. When Tiamat is on his last 1000 HP, use single
attacks on him until he's down to about 300 HP. Dock Jr. and have
him finish off Tiamat. Jr.'s consciousness will be deleted from the
fight, and he'll stop using the pilot KO, but he'll keep using the
all-hitting attack.
- Get Jr. back into his A.G.W.S., and use the W-ACT strategy to
chip away at Tiamat's 1500 HP again. When he's down to about 800 HP,
single-attack, and dock Shion when he reaches about 300 HP.
Polish him off with a tech attack, and the fight is over.

You can return to the Elsa to check out the shops. They mostly have the
same inventory as they did before you stepped into Miltia.

Return to the Dry Cleaner's Store.
ITEM - SEGMENT ADDRESS # 3
- Open up the door and grab the Robot Part Right Leg.
ETHER SUMMON
- Return to the Professor's shop in the basement of the Robot Academy. You
can now give him the Robot Legs in exchange for another Ether: Dominion
Tank.
So far, the only change I've seen in these shops during this time is that
the Dock Colony shop stopped carring the SHB67AG weapon for A.G.W.S.
units. But the Elsa and Robot Academy A.G.W.S. shops still sell it.
Event - Shion talks to Allen at the Ironman bar.
NOTE - Before progressing into the next section, take note that you will
not have a chance to EVS dive during the Kukai Invasion, and once
you enter Section 26 & 27, you're stuck in there. Keep a save from
before entering Sector 26 & 27, just so you can farm T.Pts, E.Pts
or S.Pts from enemies that dole out less experience points than the
ones in Kukai. You may need it.
ITEM
- Don't forget to check up on Luty to see the progress on the Ariadne
Flower. Unless of course you're keeping the Seed as part of your
collection. In which case, ignore this bullet point. If you checked
during the previous two mentions of this, You should receive your last
Tech Upgrade Z. Congratulations!
PLEASE, READ THE NEXT SECTION THOROUGHLY BEFORE PROCEEDING!!!
=======================[ Kukai Foundation: Invasion ]=========================
---------------------------------[ 20.KFI ]-----------------------------------
I'll start here by mentioning that all of the shops that were listed in the
Durandal: Again section are exactly the same. What I find ironic is that
you have access to all of them, even though there's an emergency situation,
but when the characters were playing on the beach, nobody wanted us going
anywhere. Weird.
Regardless, for the sake of not boring you to tears with another 50 lines
shop inventory, I'll just leave those shop lists in the last section.
Also, take note that the "Our Treasure" Shop is closed, but there is an
NPC that sells items with the same inventory list at the entrance to
sector 26 & 27.
Again, once you begin this section of gameplay, you are STUCK HERE, and
all of the previous shops are temporarily unavailable, except for the
Mayor's version of the Our Treasure Inn shop.
+-Point Check-------------------------------------------------[ 20.Pnt ]-+
| |
| This area is fairly tough, and the enemies do a wide array of status |
| detriments and damage.
| |
| Take note that during this sequence you can obtain |
| a Skill Upgrade S (x1), Ether Upgrade S (x1), and Tech Upgrade S (x2) |
| |
| SP Stock = 650 Pts. A x 25, S x 4, Z x 2 |
| |
| EP Stock = 740 Pts. A x 24, S x 10, Z x 2 |
| |
| TP Stock = 210 Pts. A x 6, S x 3, Z x 3 |
| |
+-End Point Check--------------------------------------------------------+
Take note that you will want to do all of your analysis and item collecting
before rescuing all of the civilians. Once you do, everything despawns.
SAVE YOUR GAME - Save your game on several different slots as you progress
through here. There are so many missables, it is
ridiculously easy to screw up a perfect-save in here.
ETHER CHECK - If you have not learned and transferred Shion's Boost I
ability, use some of your EP Stock (except for the Upgrade
Z items) to give her enough EP to learn it and transfer it
to at LEAST 1 other party member (preferrably MOMO, since
she'll be mandatory in the Gigas fight). I like to use
chaos, since almost everything in the game is weak to his
attacks.
- Also, make sure Jr.'s Psycho Pocket is on MOMO and whomever
else you'll be using to steal the Soul/Spirit armour combo
with. As stated before, I like to use Shion because she'll
have more Skills learned/Skill Points, or chaos because he
is POWERFUL against the Gigas.
DECODER # 13
- Get to the highest point on the roof of the 'Our Treasure Inn', and hold
up and to the left (up and to the left) when descending. If you got far
enough, you'll reach a tunnel on the western side of the rooftop. Enter
and you'll end up on the roof of the bakery. The Decoder is in a chest.
SEGMENT ADDRESS # 1
- On the roof of the Ironman bar, the Segment Address is on a ledge, behind
some destructible debris.
ITEM - SEGMENT ADDRESS # 1
- The Robot Head is yours!
ANALYSIS
- The first time you enter Sector 27 (the western half of Sector 26 & 27),
there will be a very strange looking monster flying around near the
Bakery. The Wyrm enemy will disappear once you leave this screen,
regardless of whether you fought it or not. If you don't analyze it now,
it's gone forever. Also, be careful when fighting it, as it will attempt
to escape. If it escapes, it is also gone forever, and you don't even
get a database entry.
ANALYSIS
- The Larva Doll enemies in Kukai transform into Larva Faces when killed.
These are the only Larva Dolls in the game with this ability. The game
tracks Larva Faces in the Database, so if you don't analyze them
during the Kukai Invasion, they are gone for good.
ANALYSIS
- The Gel Fish are one-time only enemies in here. They do respawn, but
once this section of gameplay is over, they disappear for good.
ITEMS
- Before taking on Gigas, make sure you defeat Mintia (yes, this will
be insanely hard), and obtain MOMO's Dark Scepter (automatically
granted when Mintia is defeated). During the fight, make sure you use
Psycho Pocket to get the Penguin Rod and the Craft Apron from Mintia.
TECH ATTACK
- MOMO's Dark Scepter is obtained by defeating Mintia. Since we're at a
point that will require us to use it to find a rare item, it's time to
take her on. I will provide a boss strategy for your benefit, since I
consider this 'mandatory' to a perfect file.
To Find Mintia, turn the crank beside the entrance to the Ironman bar. This
will lower a path to Mintia. Make MOMO your on-screen character, and enter
the Our Treasure Inn. Go upstairs, and climb the ladder to reach the roof.
Once you fall off the roof onto the scaffolding, hop onto the overhang over
the entrance to Ironman, and start running Northeast (yeah, push up towards
the wall, and to the right to ensure you don't fall off. Once you enter the
room, the fight begins. Obviously, save your game beforehand.
Oh, and keep 2 saves, one before you learn the skills, and one after, also,
make sure you kept a save from before you were locked into the area. You
may need to level-up slightly to be able to take on Mintia.
NOTE - Equip your girls with the following items and skills.
- Shion: Dex Guard, Ether Power D, EATK+2
Venom Block, Yamato Belt, Scope
- KOS-MOS: Dex Guard, A-Poison Guard, EATK+2
Red Topaz, Commander's Crest, Double Buster
- MOMO EATK+2, EDEF+2, EPMAX+15
Life Stone, Purple Ring, White Ring
NOTE - Equip your girls with the following Ether spells.
- Shion: Life Shot (1), Medica All (2), Boost I (2),
Revert (2), Psycho Pocket (1),
Ether Shift A (1), Ether Shift B (1)
- KOS-MOS: Life Shot (1), Medica All (2), Boost I (2),
Revert (2), Psycho Pocket (1),
Ether Shift A (1), Ether Shift B (1)
- MOMO: Life Shot (1), Medica All (2), Boost I (2),
Revert (2), Psycho Pocket (1),
Star Wind (2)
- Start the fight with MOMO directly behind KOS-MOS in the middle
of the battle formation, and Shion to the left of MOMO. Have all
three girls cast Psycho Pocket until you have both the Craft Apron
and Penguin Rod. In the case that the game is being stingy and you
need to heal in-between, keep Shion and KOs-MOS on steal duty, and
dedicate MOMO to healing.
- As you can tell by the set-up, KOS-MOs is going to be our heavy
hitter. Every round she can T + R-CANNON, and every second round she
can T + R-CANNON + R-CANNON. Shion should be doing T + Spell Ray
every time she can, but make her priority back-up heals and item-
tossing.
- Don't bother removing A-Poison from MOMO. She never attacks, so
she'll never take damage from the poison.
- If you can outlive most of Mintia's damage, try to dedicate a few
turns to casting Boost I on everyone so that you have a contingency
plan when things go wrong. Don't try to line up your turns with
boosts, though. Mintia will throw a hissy fit whenever she feels
like it and override your boosts with her own. Save them for when
you know she's not about to boost, and you need the extra turn to
heal.
- Keep in mind that you never want to have FULL HP. Mintia will sap
one character's current health - 1 point. If KOS-MOS has full HP,
she can heal for up to 800 ~ 1000 points in one shot. Don't give her
that opportunity.
- So you're probably wondering why MOMO has the Life Stone...Simple.
EP repair. The worst thing you can do is run out of EP, and the
second-worst thing you can do is waste 2 peoples' turns getting the
EP back.
- Keeping Ether Shift B on your attackers will ensure the damage is
decent, and if you find you're having trouble keeping up with heals,
cast Ether Shift A to cut the damage by a fair margin.
- With Mintia's status detriment attacks severely gimped, she will end
up wasting turns trying to debilitate you (to no avail, WOOT!). The
only things left to watch out for are her damaging spells, and Bibo's
life drain. Occasionally, Shion will be knocked into the back row,
but this can act as a blessing if she only has 4 AP when her next
turn comes up; "Move" costs 2 AP, so when Shion gets another turn,
she'll be ready to T,T + Spell Ray.
- Towards the end of the fight, try to keep the girls at no more
than 50% of their maximum HP (with the exception of MOMO). Mintia
begins using her HP-Drain attack more often.
- Kick her ass.
ITEMS
- When fighting Gigas, make sure MOMO and Shion have the Psycho Pocket
Ethers. Make sure Shion has the White Ring equipped, and reset your game
if you do not start with both females getting a turn before Gigas does.
Use Psycho Pocket with both Shion and MOMO to get the Spirit and Soul
armour. When Gigas splits, steal from each of the two new Gigases. When
you're done, you should have 3 Souls and 3 Spirits. Now, defeat each Gigas
on a Point Bonus slot, using MOMO's Dark Scepter. You should end the fight
with 2 Diamonds on top of the aforementioned Swagger.
- This may require a few resets to get it without any problems.
NOTE - To make the Gigas fight easier, equip all 3 A.G.W.S. with
Guard Cleaner and Guard Recovery items, and use them to tear
through each Gigas' health. When they're very close to dying,
have MOMO step out of her A.G.W.S. and alternate between guarding
and using Dark Scepter.
- If you can, take out the melee-based Gigas first. If you reduce the
caster Gigas's HP to low amounts, he'll start casting instant-death
spells on the party. With a partner boosting and melee-attacking
you, the battle can become quite messy, quite quickly. Just have all
three members disembark once the caster Gigas is alone and low on
HP. You can have them alternating heal and revive spells until MOMO
manages to bring the boss down.
- If you have Misty with Jr. and he is in the party, have him cast it
on the caster Gigas to disable him completely from the fight. If Jr.
isn't in the party, but has enough E.Pts to transfer it, have him
pass it over to Shion or chaos (or whoever MOMO'S partner in crime
is).
EVENT - Shion returns to the Durandal, goes back to Kukai, and returns to
the Durandal again (bleh). MOMO goes missing. Cutscenes and stuff.

EVENT - Shion enters Tower 1.
DECODER # 14
- This Decoder is found on the fifth floor of tower one. You can reach that
floor by destroying 12 boxes on the elevator.
EVENT - Shion enters Tower 2.
DECODER # 2
- Defeat the Athra 26 Series boss on the middle-floor of Tower 2.
SEGMENT ADDRESS # 12
- Right behind the Athra 26 Series enemy is another container covering up
this segment address.
ITEM - SEGMENT ADDRESS # 12
- Crack open the door and MOMO's W-Hammer Rod is your reward.
ITEM
- Defeat the Rianon SE, but not before stealing the Boost Pack and Shield
Armor.
NOTE - To make this fight go really smooth, have Ziggy or KOS-MOS, packed
with Healing Ethers, and any two capable A.G.W.S. pilots. After
you have used two people to Psycho Pocket both items, get two
members up in A.G.W.S. units.
- Why 2 and not 3, you ask? Well, he steals a percentage of a party
member's health as a counter-attack once in a while. The higher
the HP, the higher the amount. So, with a decoy on the ground, who
is capable of healing him/herself, your chance of letting him heal
for up to 1000 HP gets cut down to 2/3rds. Considering the
infrequency of this retaliation, W-ACT handguns dishing out over
700 damage every 2 turns will keep you well over the boss's healing
curve. Better still is when the W-ACT crits for 1100 damage.
EVENT - Shion and co. defeat Rianon SE, and exit the second tower.
DECODER # 17
- In tower 3, at the very center of all of the balconies and ladders, is a
sealed room. Get in there, by maneuvering around the Gnosis, and getting
to the upper balcony on the west side, then dropping down the hole in the
center balcony. You'll end up in the very center, and there will be a
chest inside the balcony with the glass walls. The Decoder is in that
chest.
NOTE - To save you from checking another FAQ for this puzzle, just shoot
the columns down so this many remains:
- Red = 2
- Blue = 3
- Green = 5
EVENT - Shion and Co. enter the core of the Song of Nephilim.
NOTE - To defeat Simeon easily, use the strategy I suggested for Rianon SE.
Simeon is pretty cheap and predictable. He basically just attacks
the exact same target over and over and over again with AIRD.
- During this current playthrough, he basically did nothing but AIRD
on chaos. Shion and Jr.'s A.G.W.S. stayed at full health the entire
fight.
NOTE - After the Simeon fight, I would suggest running back up to the save
point, healing, and saving.
ITEM
- If you don't steal the Master's Pendant from Ein Rugel before s/he
transforms into Doppelwogel, it's gone for good.
ITEM
- Make sure you steal the Gemini Clock and Samurai Heart from Doppelwogel.
These items are also permanently gone after the fight.
NOTE - Once again, use the same boss strategy as the previous two fights.
If you have enough money kicking around, it may be wise to upgrade
to the LM11-VX for the two VX model A.G.W.S. Keep the handguns on
chaos' A.G.W.S., because the only upgrade right now is the HMR55AG,
and the difference is negligible. Not only that, but the hammers
can't reach Doppelwogel.
- You may also want to bump up all 3 A.G.W.S. pilots' Ether Defense
before starting up this fight. Once Doppelwogel casts anti-veil on
himself, he attacks all 3 party members with a spell that will
consistently out-damage your ability to heal with Guard Recovery.
- Make sure your A.G.W.S. units all have Guard Recovery, Engine Shield,
and Cockpit Guard as their accessories.
EVENT - Ein Rugel and Doppelwogel are defeated.

| At this point in the game, there aren't as many status detriments. |
| Mostly, you'll find that the enemies are dealing pure damage output. |
| It's at this time that most of those seemingy 'broken' Skill |
| extractions are put to practical use. Until you start really levelling |
| up and getting overpowered, things like the Double Buster, Cross, |
| Angel Ring, Commander's Crest, and so forth will be put to good use. |

| Counter-Boost like crazy. It's good to use everything at your disposal.|

SEGMENT ADDRESS # 17
- On the 43rd floor, the Segment Address is in the research laboratory.
ITEM - SEGMENT ADDRESS # 17
- Jr.'s BLOOD9 weapon is inside of this door. It's his ultimate weapon,
so equip it and start blasting everything away. Couple this with the
Bravesoul and toss a Hemlock on Jr. Watch him decimate anything -melee
distance or ranged- in one round.
ITEM
- Proto Dora's Rare Item, the Fast Circuit 50, is the only of it's kind in
the entire game. If you don't get it now, it's lost.
DECODER # 6
- This decoder is dropped by Proto Dora.
SEGMENT ADDRES # 6
- This Segment address is in the room after defeating Proto Dora, where
there are 3 demons patrolling, and a sunken section in the center of
the room.
ITEM - SEGMENT ADDRESS # 6
- The Trauma Plate accessory is now yours. Wave goodbye to those pesky
Critical Hits. This is probably one of the best accessories to have
extracted and equipped during the final boss.
ITEM
- PM Card Q. THis is the Proto Dora card for the Xenocard minigame. There
is some curiosity about this item. Some say it unlocks right after you
beat Proto Dora. This is not true. It unlocks AFTER you've completed the
elevator segment in which you fight several mandatory Armaros, Azazel,
and Baraqijal enemies. Once you return to the ship, the card will be
waiting for you in the Casino Prize Exchange.
- Since every PM Card will be waiting for you in the Casino Exchange, I
haven't even bothered noting when they become available. Frankly, I don't
even know when each card becomes available, but because they never go
missing, I haven't bothered taking note of it.
THE LAST SAVE-FILE BEFORE THE BOSS!!!
- There is no true 'point of no return' in this game anymore, because you
can still leave Proto Merkabah. Just do yourself a favour. Make 2 or 3
copies of this save file. Perhaps save your game onboard the Elsa, so
you have more options.
- JUST. DON'T. SAVE. OVER. THIS. WITH. THE. CLEAR-DATA.
- Once you beat the final boss, and view the ending, you will be asked to
save your game for bonuses available in Xenosaga Episode II. Don't save
over top of your perfect-file or you won't be able to access it at all.
FINAL BOSSES
- I'm not going to give out any strategies for this. Why? Because you're
on your own now. You have everything you need, and you're at a point that
gives you the freedom to do what you want. Having trouble? Spend that
money on some more weapons and armour for your characters or A.G.W.S.,
or spend some time levelling up or stat-syncing. Enjoy the game.
CONGRATULATIONS
- You now have every missable item in your inventory. You may not have
99 of everything else, or 9999 Tech, Ether and Skill points, or all of
your Techs at level 50, or +200 to all of your stats, and so on and so
forth. But now you know you can safely stat-sync at any time without
worrying that you missed something.
- My suggestion? Get your stats to an even 100 (or 99), with about 2000
health. Retain some of that challenge, and don't even BOTHER levelling
up your Tech Skills. Seriously, what's the point of having 30 different
moves that do 9999 damage, regardless of their elemental property? It
will cost millions of tech points, and it completely trivializes the
point of rounding your stats up to nice, even numbers, or becoming
godlike with 200+ to your stats. Since the highest-HP enemy in the game
is Sophie Piethos with 16,000, you're not going to enjoy being uber for
very long if you spam a 9999 damage move 3 times per turn, and wipe out
everything that moves.
- But, do what you want with your save-file. It's yours to enjoy, and
what makes it 'perfect' is completely up to you. Keep the PM Cards in
your inventory, or unwrap them and play the hell out of Xenocard; it
doesn't matter, it's all yours. Have fun.
