Final Fantasy III/VI Treasure Checklist
by Corundum
Version 1.1.2 - 13th December 2005
This is a complete checklist of ALL the items that can be found in treasure
chests, pots, barrels, boxes, clocks, secret compartments, and other
containers throughout Final Fantasy VI.
This checklist does NOT include:
-Espers
-Items purchased in shops or at the Auction House
-Items stolen, metamorphed, or won from enemies and bosses
-Items given as plot events
-Strategies for fighting the "monster-in-a-box" enemies found in some chests
-Treasures that are dummied in the game data and unreachable without cheating
I've arranged the items in rough order on the assumption that you, the
player, will want to collect items as soon as they become available to you,
but do not wish to revisit areas repeatedly without cause.
Some treasures in the game change their contents as the plot progresses.
Although you can still collect these treasures only once, if you wait until
later in the game to collect them, you can obtain different (and in many
cases, better) items than you would obtain by collecting them at the earliest
possible opportunity. Thus, some treasures are listed multiple times, with
the following notation:
[ ] Never changes. Go ahead and collect it now.
( ) Changes into something arguably better. I suggest waiting until later.
{ } Changes into something arguably worse. I suggest you get it now.
< > Won't change again. If you didn't get it earlier, get it now.
