Steal Your Enemy's Emblem
In the single player Arena mode you can steal your defeated opponent's emblem. To do this you of course have to beat an opponent in the Arena, then once beaten you can go back to the opponent selection screen where everyone is ranked by number. Highlight and select someone you have defeated and then press START + SELECT and you should hear a sound. Press the two buttons again and again until you hear the sound. Once you hear the sound go to the Edit Emblem screen and the emblem selected will be the one you just took from your opponent. You can then edit it or just wear it as your own.
Use overweight AC Units
Once you finish the entire game the first time and you see the credits, the next time you start a game using the final save (the one you make after the credits) you can buy equipment and parts that would normally make your mech overweight. You will then be able to use your overweight mech the next time you play. Now you can finally create the mech you've always wanted!
More Human Plus
Human Plus Upgrades don't stop after the sixth time. Repeat the process for getting the upgrades as usual. Between the seventh and ninth time, not only will you be able to throw your laser blade, but it will be a 3-way shot! Also, there will be a missile display added to your radar. And you thought a single laser blade was cool!
Engage Limiter Release
To engage the Limiter Release, press and hold R2 and L2, then press R3. Your energy gauge will not deplete over the next forty seconds. After that, however, you will be unable to use any energy for 50 seconds. Great for a final surge at the end of a battle.

DARK CLOUD
Boss Strategies
1. Divine Beast...
Use both of your characters...use Xiao to hit him while he is flying, and he will fall...switch to Toan, attack with your sword. You can use stamina potions and feathers but it's not neccesary. If you do it right he'll be dead in no time and you should take little to no damage.
2. Forest Guardian
Again, multiple characters is the key, though you don't really have to do it this way. Auto target the monkey...see how it targets his big hairy toes? and golly..you have a big hammer...smash em! Get close, wait until he swings at you and move in close and attack. He will be stunned, giving you time to use your strongest character to move in and attack a while. Repeat until he's dead. Again, feathers and potions are helpful but far from essential.
3. Shipwreck...ice queen
Hands down this is the most annoying boss in the game. a couple ways to approach her: a)Stock up on feathers and potions and run in circles until you get close...when you are within range, use your sword to attack until it breaks her shield...then back off and use a ranged attack with the fire element. Repeat. b)This takes longer but it's really easy. Equip Ruby and Xiao with a fire attack. When the battle starts, run and hide behind a pillar. This will block her attack that freezes you. Pop out between her attacks and shoot her with Xiao until it says "no effect"...switch to Ruby and shoot her once (more will have no effect) then back to Xiao. Just repeat this until she's dead. It takes a while.
4. The Kings Curse
Again, you want to use the person you just got. Notice how the boss is made up of that black wind stuff that Ungaga could blow away? Same idea here. Get some distance between you and the boss, turn and face him and hold down the attack button to do his special. The boss will walk right into it and be stunned, giving you a chance to switch to your strongest cahracter and whack him. Switch back to Ungaga and repeat.
5. Minotaur.
This is one if the easiest if you get the trick. I used Toan exclusively. Make use of his affection for those kegs by standing with one between you and the minotaur. He will charge you but stop when he hits the keg and pick it up. While he is drinking it you have time to charge in and hit him. When you do he will run off giving you time to find another keg to hide behind. You can also use a ranged attack while you are wating for him to come back if you want.
6. Dark Genie
Form 1-He thrusts up his hands at you, not too hard to avoid. Notice on the hands what color eyes there are and match your elemental attack to that. The wind attack happens once in a while which is pretty much unavoidable. I wouldn't worry about it though, you'll need your resources later. If he ducks under his wings, he will be changing the color of his hands, so be prepared to switch elements. Just keep hacking at him and eventually...
Form 2- He will now do the unavoidable wind thing ALL THE TIME. Ugh. Stamina potions are great here, you still fall down but don't take any damage. The laser attack its easily avoidable. Just switch to whoever has the strongest ranged attack and go to work on him.
Form 3- Ok, this is tricky because there is a lot going on, if you get hit you are dead quick and the background is disorienting. But, it's not that tough. I used Toan with the holy element. Your first priority is to get to the boss while his head is down and his mouth is open. Don't try to target, it will probably target one of the skeletons wandering around and turn you and ...ahh its bad. Besides, the crystal in his mouth is beig enough that if you can't hit it, well, you shouldn't have gotten this far. SO...run up hit his mouth. Right away, he will stomp a foot and these energy waves will come at you. Run away from them and back around in a little circle, so you end up right back at his mouth. Hit him again, run in a circle. Repeat and he'll be dead in no time.
If you MISS...or take too long doing the circle...he will sit up and do his laser attack. DON'T GET HIT. It takes a lot of HP away. Just run around frantically until you hear it stop and charge his mouth again.

Odd Gaffer Secret
When building Norune village, be sure to build Pike's house BEFORE Odd Gaffer's store because if you don't, Odd Gaffer will hurt his back while fixing his sign, which causes him to have not even half as much supplies but if you build Pike's house first, the event will be Pike helping Odd Gaffer with his sign causing him to have a TON of stuff!
Tip: Defeating the Ice Queen Boss
To easily defeat the Ice Queen Boss in the Shipwreck dungeon, make sure you have fifteen Fire Gems (buy them at Joker's house). Toss them one at a time at the Ice Queen to defeat her. Using this method, you can take her down using only one character.
Unlock The Demon Shaft
The Demon Shaft is a ungodly long dungeon (100 levels) that you get after you complete Dark Cloud. Once you unlock it, you can access it through the "Go To Other Areas" Map.
Weapon Level-Up Tip
If you're into upgrading your weapons and creating Synth Spheres, here's a helpful tip that lets you quickly raise low-level weapons to Level 5 so that you can Limit Break them in a sphere.
The problem is of course that fighting tougher enemies with a low-level weapon not only requires you to repair it frequently, but it also takes a long time to defeat the enemy. But why fight with the lower level weapon? Simply pick your most powerful weapon, and quickly defeat the enemy. Now, before the slain enemy vanishes, switch to the weapon you want to upgrade. Since there is a small delay before the WHP for the defeated enemy is added, you can easily build up lesser weapons that aren't suited for the enemies you're fighting -- so that you can turn them into spheres and add their powers to your favorite weapon.
