I've gone over all this as thoroughly as I could, so I hope it's quite accurate.
However, that's not always easy to do. If anyone sees anything incorrect in this
guide, I would be more than happy to hear about it. Just contact me at the above
email address or post in the stickied Help Topic on the Star Ocean 2 GameFAQs
message board.
Version 1.1

It has been brought to my attention that Braised Knuckles can be pickpocketed
from Bowman the day after spending the night at his house in Linga. This guide
has been thus amended.
Version 1.2

D.) INTRODUCTION SECD

THE GOAL:
The goal of this guide is to get to the end of the game (post cave of trials)
and be in a position to be able to compile the longest possible item list that
you can. This is will be 762 out of the 791 normal items, and 192 out of 196 of
the possible unidentified items. For a total of 954 out of 987 possible items.
Figuring out how to collect the most possible items is no simple task, because
many items are dependent upon the game scenario and character recruitment. So
this guide attempts to do the following:
The first half of this guide is the HOW.
1. This section is a walkthrough of the game and includes all of the items that
you must collect at that specific time during the game.
2. This section is the list of all the other items that need to be collected for
a Longest Item List Challenge. These items can be collected at any time
during the game.
The second half of this guide is the WHY. i.e. the factors that I examined in
order to determine what the longest item list actually consisted of. This half
does not need to be read in order to complete the challenge. It is included to
show the process of how I arrived at the Longest Possible Item List.
3. This section singles out and tallies up all of the scenario or character-
dependent items.
4. This section examines the results of #3, in order to figure out the best
combination of scenario/characters, which will yield the longest possible
item list.
5. This section sums up what items you have and don't have when the Long Item
List Challenge is complete.
This guide is somewhat complicated and assumes some prior knowledge of the game.
********************************************************************************
I wrote another FAQ entitled "The Ultimate Item Encyclopedia," posted on
GameFAQs. These two Guides are meant to be used in conjunction with each other.
The Ultimate Item Encyclopedia helps you collect the needed items in this guide,
by detailing every possible way to get every possible item in the game.
********************************************************************************
================================================================================
1.) GAME WALKTHROUGH SEC1
================================================================================
EXPLANATION:
This part of the guide is a walkthrough for you to follow as you play through
the game. Everything is in chronological order, so do these in order as you go.
Play the game as you normally would, but you must do these things. Items listed
in this section are those that are collected during missable events, or missable
periods of time. Also included is when and how to recruit the needed party
members.
Also included in this section are entries marked with "*". These entries show
show items that are not necessary to collect in order to get at least one of,
but they are in limited supply. So, if you wan the max possible number of that
item, you need to collect it here.
At the end of this walkthrough you will be in a position to collect every other
possible item in the Longest Item List Challenge, as listed in Section 2.
Although that's not to say you can't collected stuff along the way.
In the following entries, the item you're going to collect is in all CAPITAL
LETTERS.
And obviously, DO NOT sell anything you're not positive you can get again.
Remember, pick Rena's scenario when you start a new game.
I suggest you read through the entire walkthrough before you start, so you know
what you're getting yourself into, and how to prepare better.
WALKTHROUGH:
1) To do any pickpocketing early in the game, specifically to get the Mischief,
you'll need to make sure that Rena starts the game with the Dexterity talent.
If she doesn't, start a new game and try again.
2) When you first start to level up Claude's skills, keep his Customize skill
level at 1 until you make at least one WORN-OUT SWORD. This can also be made
through customization with Dias, but only at low Customize levels.
3) Buy 20 KNUCKLES from Salva. You'll need these to help make some weapons with
Noel later.
* After the incident with Alen-Tax in Salva, talk to him in his mansion. He
will give you a Ring Of Happiness. You must talk to him before spending the
night in Cross.
4) Go to Cross and spend the night in the Inn. Talk to the King. Meet Celine,
and agree to let her join you. Now do a PA in Cross. Go towards the castle
and witness a man with three eyes run by. You need to see this in order to
recruit Opera later.
5) At this point you can start to level up and gain some skill points in
preparation for the pickpocketing you're going to need to do. One way to do
this is to head west to the foot of Lassguss Mountains. Save here and enter
the mountain. Just about every enemy here is going to kick your butt at
first, but reload until you are attacked by a monster called Shout. They are
purple balls that suck your MP, but do not harm your HP. They give much more
Exp than any other enemy you're going to meet at this point in the game. Once
you kill them, go back out and save. Repeat. Another way is to discover
secret talents through item creation. You can teach Cooking to your
character's and buy Egg/Dairy Products for a measly 10 fol each. Cook with
this until your discover your secret talent Sense of Taste. It doesn't matter
if you succeed or fail. This will net you 100 skil. points. If you want to
speed things up even more, let Rena fight alone. The goal is to get enough
skill points to first max out Perseverance with all characters. Then get
Rena's Pickpocketing skill up to level 7 or more. And finally level Claude's
Playfulness to 8. This will get you enough fol to buy the Bandit's Gloves,
and needed skills. For Playfulness and Poker Face, you need the Sensibility 2
skill set from Herlie. For Courage, you need the Sensibility 1 skill set from
Cross. Buy the Bandit's Gloves from Herlie as well. You need to be ready to
pickpocket by the time you get to Clik.
6) While your in Clik buy 20 HARD KNUCKLES this will help you make weapons with
Noel later.
7) Head to Clik and do a PA. Pickpocket the MISCHIEF from Filia. Must do this
before Clik is destroyed. You also need to see this PA so you can get the
Israfil's Tear later on.
8) After saving the children in Mars, a man will show up in the entrance of
Herlie. He is standing next to the old man. This singals the beginning of
the sidequest to recruit Ashton. Remember to not recruit Ashton as you will
need Opera and Ernest.
9) Head to Linga and do a PA to get Precis in your party.
10)After you retrieve a rare herb from the Sanctuary of Linga, you'll spend the
night in Bowman's house. The following morning you talk to Bowman and Nineh
outside his house. BRIASED KNUCKLES can be pickpocketed from Bowman at this
time. Note, as soon as you leave the screen he will move, and you can't get
the Braised Knuckles. This can be very difficult to pickpocket, especially
because you have to go through five minutes of storyline every time you
reload after a failed attempt. If you can, get Precis to create a Magician's
hand via Machinery, and level up Rena's pickpocket skill level to 10.
* The first time you enter Lacour, there is a woman standing outside of the
enterance to the castle. You can pickpocket a Pyre Tear from her. She will
disappear after you enter the castle.
11)Enter the Tournament of Arms in Lacour. You're playing Rena's scenario so
Claude will automatically get to Dias. After the battle make sure to grab the
SHARP EDGE from Gamgee in West Lacour. Whether you keep the Sharp Edge, or
customize it into the Minus Sword or Eternal Spere, it really doesn't matter.
It still only counts as one item in your inventory.
* A Funny Slayer can be found early in the game by participating in a little
sidequest. This is available after completing the Lacour Tournament of Arms,
but must be done before completing the Sanctuary of Linga quest. Talk to
Raddle the Traveler in Salva. Tell him to go north. Find him in Mars. Tell
him to go East. Find him in Hilton. Tell him to take the boat back to Herlie.
Find him in Herlie. He'll give you a Funny Slayer.
12)Head back to Hilton right after the tournament, to meet Opera in the bar.
Talk to her.
13)Go back to Cross and ask the king about Opera.
14)Then head to the Mountain Palace in the North. Meet Opera in here. She will
join you. Make your way to the bedroom with the library and have another
scene with Opera. Before you start to level up Opera's Craft, Metal Casting,
or Functionality skills you must do something first. Opera can randomly make
the item ORIGINAL BOOTS with Customize when it is at low levels. Get this
item before you level her Customize skill above level 1.
15)Head to Arlia. Do a PA and talk to Opera in the Jewelry shop. Choose whatever
you want. Leave and do another PA, and talk to Opera on Mayor Regis's
balcony. Go back outside then re-enter normally. Head to the Shingo Forest
and see a scene with Opera.
16)Make sure you pickpocket SHRIMP SHU-MAI from the Young Man in the Tavern in
Hilton, before getting on the boat with Leon to the Hoffman Ruins.
17)Okay, this is going to be a tough section. You should make an extra save file
at this point in the game, because if you screw the next part up, there's no
going back. After Leon joins your party, don't take off to the Hoffman ruins
yet. You need to make 15 items with him before you do. You need to write
SPECIAL HERALDRY and ADVANCED HERALDRY with Publishing. You need to make
PORTRAIT H with Art on Magical Canvas. These can be done with any character
while Leon is in your party. You also need to make ALL ABOUT ESP, MENTAL
REVOLUTION, ILLUSTRATED BOOK, BRAIN STRUCTURE, BOOK OF DARKNESS, BOOK OF
CHAOS, and ANCIENT WISDOM with Customize. Buy Reference Books from Linga and
Minerals from Hilton. Level playfulness to get the Fol. Brain Structure can
be really tough to make since you can't get orchestra yet. I got it to work
with All About ESP + Green Beryl. You just have to keep trying. All About
ESP, Mental Revolution, Illustrated Book and Brain Structure are made through
random customization, but don't customize with Iron because you'll make Thick
Books. Book of Darkness, Book of Chaos and Ancient Wisdom require Damascus.
Get this through Alchemy. To make things a lot easier, learn Alchemy with
Celine, because she has the Blessing of Mana talent, which will make the
Alchemy success rate a lot higher.
18)Now here's the even tougher part. You need to get some of these customizable
weapons in their unidentified form. Basically you have to just keep trying
over and over and over until you get them. Here are the books that can be
made in their unidentified forms: ?BOOK(All About ESP), ?BOOK(Illustrated
Book), ?BOOK(Brain Structure) and ?BOOK(Book of Chaos). You can also make a
WATER RING now if you want to. If you don't, you'll have to make it later
with Noel.
19)As you exit the Hoffman Ruins after getting the Energy Stone, Opera runs off
to the side. After defeating the Ghost, Let Ernest join your party. Before
you start to level up Ernest's Craft, Metal Casting, or Functionality skills
you must do something first. Ernest can randomly make the item ODD SHOES
through Customize when it is at low levels. Get this item before you level
his Customize skill above level 1.
* At this point you can perform PAs in Linga and Mars in which you can
pickpocket 2 battle suits from Ernest.
20)When you talk to Dias at the Lacour Front Lines, let him join your party. The
BASTARD SWORD can only be made through customization with Dias, but only at
low Customize levels. You should collect this and ?WEAPON(Bastard Sword)
before you level up his Customize skill.
* A Musical Software can be pickpocketed from Narl while he's in Central City.
This must be done before visiting Fienal for the 2nd time, when Narl moves to
L'Aqua.
21)The first time you teleport to Central City, leave City Hall and head one
screen to the left. Witness Chisato running away.
22)When you're in North City, you should see Chisato run away from you as you
approach the item shop.
23)You should make an extra save file at this point in the game, because if you
screw the next part up, there's no going back. Before you head to the Synard
Building in North City to try and get a Synard, you should stop off at the
item shops and buy 20 of a bunch of item creation items: material kit,
feather pen, fountain pen, pet food, iron, gold, silver, conductor's baton,
egg/dairy products, pet food and magic canvas. Buy the Lezard Flask and have
a supply of Mithril ready, the more the eaiser it's going to be. Unlike Leon,
you don't have access to supplies while you have Noel, so you need to be well
prepared. For some reason you need some Eagle's Claws to be able to make
Tiger's Fangs. So get as many as you can. It will also help tremendously if
you've learned Orchestra by now. Now you can fight for a long time with Noel
or you can unlock a bunch of his hidden talents to get the 100 Skill Point
bonuses like you did with Leon, except this time it will be a lot easier if
you use Orchestra. Use these to level up his Customization skills. Remember,
once you head to the Synard Building, you won't be able to buy any more
materials until after Noel is no longer in your party. Once you reach the
Synard in the Cave of Red Crystal, you'll no longer have Noel in your party.
You'll need to make PORTRAIT K through Art. PRINCIPLES OF NATURE and LIVING
WITH ANIMALS with Publishing. As well as CAT'S FANGS, TIGER'S FANGS, and
PLATINUM NAILS. Tiger's Fangs are easiest to make with Eagle's Claws at low
Customize Levels. Platinum Nails require Mithril. Use Radar or Alchemy.
Again, you also have to make a few ?weapons with Noel. These are:
?WEAPON(Tiger's Fangs), ?WEAPON(Platinum Nails). ?Weapon(Tiger's Fangs) are
easier to make at lower Customize levels. This is your last chance to make
the WATER RING if you didn't make it with Leon.
24)In the Cave of Red Crystal there is a point before the Synard where you have
to run down some stairs under a bridge, to get a chest containing the Flying
Hawk Robes. As you do so, Chisato will will run by and drop her I.D. Make
sure to pick it up.
25)Don't let Noel join your party at the end of the Cave of Red Crystal.
26)Once you get the Synard, head back to Central City. Before you talk to Narl,
go to the Nede Chronicle and talk to Chisato. Let her join your party.
* One Moon Tiara per fighter can be won from the Duel Battle Rank B in Fun
City, but if you want to get the max of 20, you need to collect them from
Breakwings in Mihne Cavern. However, this must be done before you beat the
boss, because all encounters end after you do.
27)Don't accidentally feed the Shrimp Shu-mai to the food god on Floor 8 of the
Cave of Trials.

3.) BREAKDOWN OF ITEMS DEPENDENT ON SCENARIO CHOICE & CHARACTER RECRUITMENT SEC3
================================================================================
EXPLANATION:
Obviously, there are many items in the game where the availability of which is
dependent on the game scenario you chose, and what characters you have
recruited.
Specifically these areas are Customization, Fun City Rank A Duel Battle Weapons,
Machinery, Private Action Scenes, Art, Publishing, and Metalwork.
It must be noted that you can collect certain items from characters, while they
are only temporarily in your party. I will take this into account as well. Items
in this section that can be collected during a time when the character is
temporarily in your party, are marked with a "T" after it.
The unidentified items are not counted in this section, because they don't have
any bearing on who you should or shouldn't recruit.
CUSTOMIZATION WEAPONS:
This lists the weapons that can be made through Customization by each character.
Claude & Rena's weapons are not listed because they are always in your party, so
there is no issue as to whether or not you can miss those items. Each character
is divided into two sections:
1)Uncollectible without [character]:
This is the important part. These are items that you won't be able to get
without the character being in your party.
2)Collectible without [character]:
These are items that you can collect at least one of, without the character
being in your party.

ART & PUBLISHING ITEMS:
Normally, only 16 out of 24 published books can exist in your inventory, since
it requires the character to be in your party in order to write it, and you can
have up to 8
characters in your party. However, some characters can be recruited temporarily,
so the following books can be collected even if the character is not permanently
recruited:
--Leon--
Advanced Heraldry T
Special Heraldry T
--Noel--
Living With Animals T
Principles Of Nature T
Normally, only 8 out of 12 portraits can exist in your inventory, since it
requires the character to be in your party in order to make it, and you
can have up to 8 characters in your party. However, some characters can be
recruited temporarily, so the following portraits can be collected even if
the character is not permanently recruited:
Portrait C (Celine) T
Portrait H (Leon) T
Portrait K (Noel) T
METALWORK ITEMS:
Of the 95 accessories that can be made from Iron, Silver, Gold, Sapphire, Ruby,
Crystal, Green Beryl, Diamond, Star Ruby, Rainbow Diamond, Moonite & Sage's
Stone, only 6 of them cannot be made by either Claude or Rena. They are:

--Fire Ring--
Metalwork on Ruby with Celine or Leon.
--Water Ring--
Metalwork on Sapphire with Leon or Noel.
================================================================================
4.) OPTIMAL PARTY SELECTION SEC4
================================================================================
EXPLANATION:
So this brings us to the trickiest part: Trying to find the correct combination
of scenario and characters, to yield the longest possible item list.
Now that we've gone over every item that is somehow dependent on the game
scenario or character recruitment, let's see how this dictates what party should
be chosen, in order to get the longest possible item list. We'll start by
charting this out.
TOTAL ITEMS MISSED PER CHARACTER, IF NOT RECRUITED:
Column 1: For Claude & Rena, the numbers in the following columns show how many
items WILL BE MISSED if their SCENARIO is NOT chosen. For the other
ten names, the numbers in the columns show how many items WILL BE
MISSED if that character is NOT in your party.
Column 2: "Useless" items made through customization.
Column 3: Uncollectible weapons. You won't find these anywhere in the game
except through that character's Customization.
Column 4: Fun City weapons.
Column 5: Items made through Machinery.
Column 6: Other unique items that can only be collected if the character is
recruited.
Column 7: Art/Publishing.
Column 8: Total missable items.
C1: C2: C3: C4: C5: C6: C7: C8:
Claude's...................................3^..............3
Rena's.....................................................0
Chisato............9.......1.......................3......13
Dias...............7.......1.......................3......11
Opera......1.......6.......1.......3...............3......14
Ernest.....1.......6.......1.......................3......11
Precis.............7.......1.......3...............3......14
Celine.............5.......1.......................2,1T....8
------------------------------------------------------------
Ashton.....1.......7.......1...............1.......3......13
Bowman.............2.......1.......................3.......6
Leon...............7T......1.......................3T......1
Noel...............3T......1.......................3T......1
T These items do not count towards the total missable items, because you can get
them when the character is temporarily in your party.
^ One of these is the General's Ring. It will always be missed if Claude's
scenario is not chosen, but is also missable if Celine is permanently
recruited.
Note: The 3 potentially missable Metalworking are items not included in the
above table since each can be made from multiple characters. But it
becomes a non-issue anyway, as noted in the "Pros" section below.
PARTY SELECTION BREAKDOWN:
--Claude or Rena--
There are 3 unique items that can only be collected in Claude's scenario.
Leon (Claude's scenario only) has 1 item that can only be collected with him.
3 + 1 = 4
There are 0 items that can only be collected in Rena's scenario.
Dias (Rena's scenario only) has 11 items that can only be collected with him.
= [11]
--> RENA's scenario
--Dias or Leon--
Rena's scenario is chosen therefore:
--> DIAS
--Ashton or Opera/Ernest--
Ashton has 13 items that can only be collected with him.
Opera/Ernest have [25] items that can only be collected with them.
--> OPERA/ERNEST
--Precis or Bowman--
Precis has [14] items that can only be collected with her.
Bowman has 6 items that can only be collected with him.
--> PRECIS
--Chisato or Celine or Noel--
These three can be recruited independently, and there are 2 spots are left.
Chisato has [13] items that can only be collected with her.
Celine has [8] items that can only be collected with her.
Noel has 1 items that can only be collected with him.
--> CELINE and CHISATO
--Summary--
*****Claude - Rena - Celine - Dias - Opera - Ernest - Precis - Chisato*****
PROS & CONS:
--Pros--
1) All 3 missable metalworking items are able to be collected, although the
Water Ring and ?JEWELRY(Water Ring) must be made with either Leon or Noel,
while either is temporarily in your party.
2) All 6 unique Machinery Items can be collected.
--Cons--
1) 5 unique items: the Salamander Helmet, Guard Sword, Generals' Ring,
Aphrodisiac, & Leaf Pendant cannot be collected.
2) There are two chests in the game that you won't be able to open. One contains
Ashton's Tri-ace Killer Move on Floor 10 of the Cave of Trials. The other is
Leon's Extinction spell on Floor 4 of the Cave of Trials.
3) Precis cannot get her last Killer Move, Holo-holograph, because Ashton is not
in your party.
