             1. Introduction.
  This FAQ is about The Lost Field part of Armored Core 2: Another Age.
In order to get The Lost Field area in Armored Core 2: Another Age you have
it get 100% in the completion area.  Then you have too finish the
game(AC2:AA).
    The Lost Field part of the game has no point but it gives alot of
money, and 2 Secret parts when you finish it.
     I used the American version of AC2:AA in order to write this FAQ.
AC2:AA stands for Armored Core 2: Another Age, and AC2, stands for Armored
Core 2.


A) Updates in v. 1.4

8/29/2001-Checked the spelling over

8/30/2001-Hard mode of AC2:AA The Lost Field almost finished

8/31/2001-I forgot to actually take the advice I'd given Zaku IX credit for,
and decided to keep the names I'd chosen, and we agreed
that he didn't need any credit since I was using my own names.  I also made
some corrections.

2/13/2002-Last time I updated this was... I forget, anyways I changes some grammer,
         Format and put in Hard mode differences
*******************************************************
             2. Why I wrote this FAQ.
  This is my first FAQ, and I wrote it becuse people all over the GameFAQs
board asks how do you beat the 3 menaces in The Lost Field? I wanted to write a FAQ for the
first time, and I was bored...

*******************************************************
             3. What to use in the lost field.
  The Lost Field is very tough, You should use an AC thats very quick, but
yet, powerful.......  I would recomend you have a little bit of practice before you fight these
menaces.  I used a PLUS AC, in order to get PLUS you have to have the original copy of
AC2, and get -50,000 credits 5 times.

Here is the AC I used to beat The Lost Field

HEAD: EHD-GN-92
CORE: ZCL-XA/2
ARMS: EAN-02-BG
LEGS: ELN-STVM
BOOSTER: ZBT-Z1/ARTERE
FCS: VERTEX-124/EE
GENERATOR: HOY-BV2500
RADIATOR: RBG-CLX5000
INSIDE: Nothing
EXTENSION: BEX-BAMS-287
BOTH BACK UNITS: EWC-GN-81
ARM UNIT R: KARASAWA-MK2
ARM UNIT L: Nothing

You can use another AC, but I reccomend this AC. NOTE: This AC is not
Overweight.

NOTE: The enemys got more defence in Hard difficulty.

A) The Enemys of The Lost Field

I played through hard difficulty and I found out there is not much changes in boss patterns,
except Ultimate Nine-Ball is trying to get behind you more and hes a tad bit faster

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
ENEMY: STINGER: He is the first pilot you have too beat
MISSION: Explore Uncharted Region
CREDITS: 350000
REQUESTER: Government
ADVANCE: 0
UPON SUCCESS: 350000
STINGER'S ATTACKS: Rapid Blade, Laser Rifle Shot, Grenade Shot, and Core
Bullet Spread.
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

  HOW TO BEAT STINGER: When you face off with Stinger boost around alot,
and when he uses his mega machine gun
(Core Machine Spray) It fires a spread of
Machine gun bullets rapidly from his Core, move back from him alot
then hit Stinger(NOTE: Stinger stops to do this attack) with 2 grenades from
the EWC-GN-81.  If you want to take chances hit him while hes not using the Core Bullet
Spray.  Keep on doing this and it should should take this dude down.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
ENEMY: PHANTASMA: He is the second pilot you have to fight
MISSION: Revisit Uncharted Region
CREDITS: 600000
REQUESTER: Government
ADVANCE: 0
UPON SUCCESS: 600000
PHANTASMA'S ATTACKS: Phantasma weapon, Vertical Missles, and Grenade Shot.
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

  HOW TO BEAT PHANTASMA: In order to beat this dude you have too use your
extension(missle interceptor),
and boost around and fire at him with the KARASAWA-MK2 really fast.
This guy has alot of armor. I would recommend a hevily armored AC with lots
of power, or use my AC and this guy should be dead.  Just watch out for his Phantasma attack
where he charges up energy around himself, and explodes it everywhere.

2ND WAY: Land on Phantasma.  Phantasma will hit you with 2 big missles, and
keep blasting him while you are standing on top of it.
NOTE: Phantasma don't move when you stand on him.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
ENEMY: Ultimate Nine-Ball: He is the final pilot you have to beat
MISSION: Destroy Designated Target
CREDITS: 999999
REQUESTER: Government
ADVANCE: 0
UPON SUCCESS: 999999
ULTIMATE NINE-BALLS ATTACKS: Pulse Rifle Shot, Chain Gun Blast, Vertical
Missles, and Double Blade Slice.
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

  HOW TO BEAT ULTIMATE NINE-BALL: This guy is just plain out retarded, has
soon as it says,
"TARGET VERIFIED, COMMENCING HOSTILITIES,"
get ready to use your extension(missle interceptor), and boost around, ALOT.
When He lands on the ground and uses his Chain Gun, DODGE QUICKLY,
by boosting around in an odd pattern.  When Ultimate Nine-Ball uses his pulse rifle,
dodge again and hit him with 2 grenades
from the EWC-GN-81, then he will use his double blade, WATCH OUT FOR THIS
ATTACK!!  The Double Blade can take odd about 4000 AP!
And hit him with 1 Grenade, again.  Keep repeating this and he should be
dead.

Remember, this guy is MUCH faster in hard mode.  Keep your eyes on him when he flies in the air
or else he will slice and dice you on the ground.


CONGRATS: You now 103% completed the game, and you have the........
ZLR-ARROW Legs,
and the 1NW-OM-PRT Orbit Maker.

             4. All about The Lost Field.

  The Lost Field is basically a place where you can get alot of money and 2
new weapons, and bringing back old memories for some Armored Core gamers.


Stinger in The Lost Field is from Armored Core:
Project Phantasma. He was the main menace of the game of AC:PP.

Phantasma is Stinger fused with the Phantasma,
of Armored Core: Project Phantasma, He was the Final Boss of AC:PP.

Ultimate Nineball is the main menace, and the Final Boss,
of Armored Core: Master of Arena

*******************************************************
             5. Credits.

Thanks to T260GST for submitting in the 2nd way to kill Phantasma

Thanks to Agetec for translating this game and bringing it over to North
America.

Many thanks to Jackal also, he prooved the differences in Ultimate
Nine-Balls ground time, and
the vertical missles rumor.

And thanks to CJayC for making this site.


*******************************************************
             6. Changes from Japanese version to American version.


All that I know about the Lost Field changes from Japanese to American version is that
Ultimate Nine-Ball has been toned down from the Japanese version of
AC2:AA.  In the Japanese version Ultimate Nine-Ball shoots vertical missles that spread
out.  In the American version the vertical missles he shoots out don't spread... at all.
