Holy Magic Century

Defeat the Robber in the forest then return to Dondoran. The people tell you various things. Return to the king and he will open a secret throne room containing many items.

After you obtain the first stone, you can enter the throne room behind the king. Look for two barrels placed in front of a dark hallway. Go to the top step of the stairs to slip past the barrels to collect a spirit. You can also go to the library with the wind gem. Search the bookcase near the right-hand corner of the room to find the other half of the secret passageway behind the throne room.

If you want a very high Agility stat to avoid enemy attacks more often, there's a very simple way to do it. First, head to an open space - in Brannoch, Melrode and the path along Melrode Monastery work nicely - and start rotating the control stick so that Brian will continuously run in circles. While you're rotating unplug the N64 controller you're using. If done correctly, Brian should still be running in circles. The more you run, the more Agility you gain. With this method you can leave the console on and gain a nice amount of agility without any work.

Enter an Inn or save game point and sleep. Then press B at the save game screen to exit without saving the game.

Run towards any monster that uses Earth-based magic while they are attacking. They always miss if Brian is close enough to the monster. Since their stone attacks are more powerful then their physical attacks, this strategy will also conserve hit points.

There is little time to dodge an enemy spell in battle. Hold the Analog-stick over while the enemy is casting a spell. By the time the spell arrives, your character should be out of the way. Note: Practice is required with this trick, since it does not automatically work all the time.

Walk as close to Mammon as possible and use the Earth spell, Avalanche. Since Mammon is so big, almost every rock will hit him, doing about 70 points of damage each. It also helps if you first activate Magic Barrier.

When facing Zelse in the battle for the Wind Jade, Brian can avoid his second attack by standing six or seven steps away from him. When in this position, Brian will be able to easily outrun his attack.

Use the following trick quickly boost Defense, Agility, and HP at the same time. Fight enemies that use homing arrow level 3. About 2 out of 6 arrows will miss you, so you will gain Agility twice as fast as when fighting normal enemies. Since four of arrows will hit you, you will gain HP and Defense four times as quickly as when fighting normal enemies.

After you leave the castle, turn left and go to the stable with the horse. There is an element stone in the hay pile.

Before entering the forest, fight the enemies around the sign and the trees.

When looking for Elements on your journey, look for "bubbles" shooting out of the ground. They resemble smoke shooting out of the ground from a distance. When this location is approached, a question mark will appear. Tap A, and the Element selection menu will appear. Then, just choose the type of Element you wish to build.

Do not stay on the obvious paths or you will miss most of the items and elemental spirits.

Always search houses because there are some spirits or rare and common items.

Go through Brannoch Castle and defeat Guilty (if it is your first time) and King Beigus. Then, go through the castle and talk to Shannon to get the Eletale Book. Next, go through the World of Mammon and talk to Shannon to get the Dark Ghoul Key. You will then fight Mammon. Lose, and after you return to the last place you saved, you will have the Dark Ghoul Key and Eletale Book in your inventory. Note: Do not save at the Floating Castle or you will never get back to Celtland.

Find an enemy that has an attack that can hurt you a little less what your healing spell returns. Use your healing spell every turn and allow the enemy to hit you. Do this until your almost out of MP then use Drain to get MP back. Do this until you feel it is necessary to kill the enemy. Once the fight is over, your MP and HP should be higher, depending on the length of the battle.

This trick requires a lot of fighting. Before you begin collecting spirits from the wild, start fighting small enemies such as Were Hares and Big Mouths, so that you can begin collecting the elements. It is better to start like that because as you collect spirit bubbles, the "Element %" in the statistics section goes up less every time you get a new element.

When using Avalanche, tap A and the boulders will fall faster and more will appear.

Magic spells gain power as your MP count rises. This is most noticeable with Healing, Waterpillar, and the other spells you have at the start of the game, even without using the higher levels.

Having all the Elements is still not as powerful in combat as using the staff. When used successfully, the staff almost always does more damage to most enemies than the Elements.

Go to Isle Of Skye and defeat Nepty. Use the yellow wings to enter the castle. Go to the library and push against the left corners of the bookcases. One of them will open.

There is a secret room that can be found behind the throne in Limein.

Play until you reach the desert section. Explore the southeast part of the desert with no walls until you see a gem floating in the air. Touch the gem to be teleported to Shamwood, a castle that doesn't appear on your map and is full of items.
