II. Frequently Asked Questions
------------------------------

"What are Spiritual Closeness Points?"

You gain these for interacting with your dragon over the course of the
game. If you name your dragon, you are given the option to Smile,
Ignore, or Pet your dragon at various Camps during the day.
Consistently petting your dragon earns the most points (4, maybe), and
at approximately 40 or so points, you'll earn Astral Phantoms, an Extra
Class Berserk.

"What do I do with all of these items?"

Most can be sold, however, a few are useful:

Telepathy Shard - Shows you a bar of your enemy's health.

(any others?)

"How can I view the movies on the disc?"

The movies are stored on the four CD's in Cinepak format (.CPK).
There is at least one utility out there, called cpk2avi, that will
convert it to standard Windows AVI files, and that's what I used to
get them into a viewable format. Don't ask me where I found this
program, as I don't remember.

"Is there a second ending?"

No. Check the FMV files for yourself if you don't believe me.

This is the tutorial for the battle system. Go through it at your own
pace to get a feel for the system. When you're finished, select "End
of Explanation".

** Excavation Site #4 **

Fly through the site, breaking all the Break Targets and Accessing all
the containers you see. There are also three small tunnels you can
enter to get more items. You can't break the fans yet, but you can
come back later and do some damage.

** Canyon Deep Gulch **

Check the crashed ship for a recorder, then head through the canyon
until you meet your first Mid-Boss, a Baldor Queen. Once she's toast,
there's a passage beneath the waterfall with some goodies. Beyond the
fork in the path, there's another Baldor Queen. Past her, enter the
tunnel, Save your game if you want, heal up if you're hurt, then head
out. It's time for a cutscene and your first boss, the Arachnoth.
Once she's out of the way, you'll meet Gash in another cutscene. After
that, you'll be back at the World Map. Head to the Village from here.

Monsters:

Baldor Queen (M)
TIP: Stay to her front or back, use shot. Once she releases
her brood, just move to the opposite side, shoot, repeat.
Arachnoth (B)
TIP: Stay to her side, and wait for her to turn towards you.
When she does, shoot her in the tail once with the gun, and then get to
the side. In the first part of the battle, you can't get behind her,
so be careful. Eventually, she'll get mad, and you're in danger
everywhere. When this happens, get to her front, and wait for her
Tentacles to hit. When she gets Enraged, get to her front, and wait
for the hit. She'll Charge through you and into a mountain, knocking
herself out. Use this opportunity to Laser her weak side that's now
exposed (you were saving up your shots, weren't you?). Follow this
strategy until she's dead, healing yourself as necessary.

** Village of Cainus **

FMV - Destroyed Village (evt016_1.cpk)
FMV - Night at the Camp (evt016_2.cpk)
FMV - Night at the Camp 2 (evt016_3.cpk)

** Camp **

Resting at camp, you can name your dragon, and then talk to Gash.
Offer to give him a lift (select "Yes" when offered), as he's helpful
when attacked in the desert. You can then ask him whatever you want
about the desert, and then leave the camp when you're ready.

NOTE: Always pet your dragon at camp. You earn "Spirutal Closeness"
points, and when you've earned enough, you'll receive the Berserk
"Astral Phantoms" as a reward! If you don't name your dragon, you
won't be able to earn points!
