Tourist's Guide to Etgoes

  • Explore. There are a lot of out-of-the-way locales and even a few whole towns that you are not required to travel to in the storyline, and rewards for visiting them. Everywhere in the country is joined by white stone roads, so getting lost is… difficult. (And a lot more locations open up after the bridges connecting eastern and western Etgoes are repaired)

  • Don’t worry about using lower-levelled party members, even late in the game. Just use who you like the best; it’s always fairly easy to bring characters up to speed.

  • Actually buy items. Some dungeons & bosses really do require you to be stocked up quite well beforehand.

  • You can (very occasionally) find items here and there in the scenery. Feel free to search barrels, crates and so on, and you might get lucky!

  • You may find it useful to give somebody the ‘Medic’ handbook at some point. ‘Chaplain’ can be quite helpful, too.

  • Status changes are perhaps slightly more useful here than in a lot of games, and can be instrumental in turning the tide of battle; watch out for them!

  • Finally: Pay attention. There will be a test.
