1. INTRODUCTION
----------------------------------------
Story is about two boys, named Edward Elric and Alphonse Elric, whom attempt
to revive her deceased mother through human transmutation. But the attempt
resulted very badly and Edward lost his left leg and his younger brother,
Alphonse lost his entire body.
It was than Edward Elric sacrifice his right arm and his left leg to transmute
his brother's soul to a suit of armor.
As this game set off to have both brothers to find a powerful stone named
the Philosopher's Stone, to regain his brother's body.
----------------------------------------
2. AUTHOR'S NOTE
----------------------------------------
Hmm...I prepare this faq because I have nothing to do but also to help those
whom have problem in this game. Remember to read the Important thing and also
easy control to make sure you don't die so easily.
Always remember you will control only one character, Edward Elric(Ed) and also
an other helper Alphose Elric(Al). So make sure you don't went confuse with 'Ed'
and 'Al' in my FAQ.
Other than that, I still need some help like I don't know what is the name for
some name. If you do, please email to me and I truly thank you very much.
Lastly, you will face certain same enemies everytime and therefore, I only
stat about the ways to deal them the first time and then ways to get those
treasures as I don't want to be so long-winded.
Also, there are a lot of ways fixing those monsters. I will only accept
emails regarding the treasure of how to get, and certain things I got miss
out.
There are a lots of treasures and accessories in this game. I will try my best
to tell or show you all where are the treasures are and so I will stat in
direction.

---------------[ IMPORTANT THINGS ]
:Mastering the controls
To successful wipe out all the enemies, pressing the correct button or
mashing it is a must. You will have to take some time to master these
button controls and the game will teach you how, so don't worry.
:Party battling
You will have two people to battle throughout this game. One is Edward
Elric and also his little brother, Alphonse Elric. In the next section
below, I will explaining the two character's abilities and weakness.
---------------[ EDWARD ELRIC ]
:Edward's power of transmuting objects
Press O button will cause Edward to use alchemist's art. This will cause
him to cast out a stone shield to block attacks done by enemies.
Or if you hold a O button near a object will causes Ed to change to
something else depending what is the object.
Therefore, you will have to use alchemist's art in order to win your
opponents!!
:Combo attacks
Press [] and then two times more will lead Edward to combo attacks. Try
out different types of attacks to make the game more exciting!!
You will get these combo given by the game at the start:
[] + O + [] + []
[] + [] + O + [] + []
[] + [] + O + X + []
*Remember you can only perform these type of combo attacks if you equipped
a spear.
And also, remember that certain combo stated above can also be executed
with other weapons.
:Accu-Strike
Press [] at the second last combo again and if your timing is correct,
this will causes Edward to perform critical hits. Successful critical hit
deals extra damage and sometimes bonus Exp.
:Edward's movement
If you push the left analog stick together with R2 with have Edward to
sidestep and roll if the stick is push forward. This method is very
useful and you be using this alot in this game.
:Cooperate with Alphonse
Press R1 will causes you to command Al(short form for Alphonse), and you
will use this a lot too.
Note of the command in the lower corner and press R1 to have Al perform.
There are 4-types of commands appear in this game:
Tackle - Will appear only when you are near to Al and this command will
cause Al to tackle the nearest enemy.
Call - Call Al back, when you need help or you want to perform special
attacks.
Use - When Ed transmuted a weapon, and you can let Al use it sometimes.
Note that there is a limited use of these weapon given to Al compare
with Ed.
Just go near the weapon and press R1 when you saw a word 'USE' above
of Ed's life bar to let Al use it.
Guard - Press R1 and hold it will cause Al to come back and then guard
you. This is very useful if the enemies' attacks are too powerful.
Special - Press R1 to perform powerful attacks. Note that there is a
limited uses of this function.
:Special attacks
Hold down O button and stand near Al will both of them to tag team to deal
a very powerful attack.
:Fighting Frenzy
When you perform a set of attacks will let you in Fighting Frenzy mode.
You will have your damage toward the enemies and your EXP increase!! Note
that you will have this gauge disappear if you:
- Fall down, can be prevent by press X at a correct time.
- Ed or Al s' HP reaches to zero.
- Save points is used.
- Fighting Frenzy special attack is use.
To ensure your FF mode does not disappear because of falling down, mash
X continuously when Ed is going to trip off.
:Fighting Frenzy special attacks
If you in FF mode, alchemist power charge and you are near to Al, press
R1 to perform this powerful hit! Remember your FF gauge will disappear if
you use this attack.
:Bonus Points
You can increase Ed's and Al's stat by using the bonus point function in
the menu. You can receive bonus points by: increase level and gain bonus
point along, and also when you defeat the boss in the stage.
Therefore, the amount of bonus points you will receives is depends. If you
receive A rank in the end of the boss fight, you will receive 3 points.
B rank for 2 points and C rank for 1 points.
---------------[ EASY CONTROL ]
:Rockblocker
You know that press O to cast out a stone platform. But if you push the
left direction stick and have Ed keep banging with the rockblocker will
instantly have Ed join onto the platform without using X.
:Stonespikes
If you have a weapon like dagger or spear, simply press [], [] and then
O to instantly cast out stonespikes to inflict damage to the enemy! This
method is very useful for monster with tough defense towards weapon.
---------------[ Edward Elric ]
Short and well build of him dislikes anyone to call him shorty, little prawn,
little kid or any words or phrases that related to the meaning of short. His
right arm and left leg is made up of metallic.
:Attack, Combo and Accu-Strike
Press [] to attack. Press a few times to perform a series of attacks. At
the very last end of your hit, if you press [] in a appropriate time to
perform Accu-Strike. Accu-strike is somehow a critical hit and you can
inflict extra damage if you perform a successful Accu-strike.
:Defense and Dodge
Hold R1 and will causes Al to stand in front of Ed and defensive position
. Al will act as a shield and can protect Ed from certain attacks. Keep
holding R1 to have Al to became a shield. For dodging, Hold R2 and push
the analog stick to any direction you want to have Ed to roll, side roll,
back flip to dodge the attacks.
:Infinite transmute
You will have infinite uses of transmute SO make use of it!! Battle tends
to not just using weapon, but transmute object to many different things
like to a large weapon is a must.
Therefore, large weapon like cannon or sub-machine guns to deal big size
enemies, weapons like dagger or spear to finish small size enemies whom
have high speed but low defense. And also items like landmines or
grenade to finish off any type as items tends to ignores defense.
There are three different colours while you charge the alchemists magic.
Red - Weapon for Ed to use. Don't worry as it will not break. Example,
Sword, spear or dagger
Green - Items or other strange odd machines. Land mines, grenades or
large weapons.
Blue - For Al to use. Have limited uses.
:Elemental Synthesis
After transmute an object to a weapon, hold O to perform elemental
synthesis. This action is to actually add elements to the weapon to
perform more damage depends on the monster's weakness.
There are three elements in this game. You must have a item call: 'Wind
Element'(example) to perform Elemental Synthesis.
Wind - Enables you to perform more hits. Suitable for performing more
hits and speed killing. Can Synthesis with dagger, boomerang.
Fire - Lets you able to inflict extra damage. Can synthesis with Sword.
Lightning - Chances of paralyzes the enemies. Can synthesis with Spear.
---------------[ Alphonse Elric ]
Unlike his big brother, he is tall, broad size and also have a gentle heart.
Mighty strength of him have big fists to wipe out the enemies in no time. But
he lost his body during the ritual of reviving his mother and was than his
soul was put into a armor and now his brother together with him search for a
stone to get back his body using the power of the stone.
:Stats
Also, his stat is generally better that Edward. But remember that the
maximum amount of both brothers can reach is only 200 points. Since he is
better that Ed, it's better to put more bonus points to Ed than Al.
:Commanding Al
Call, use, you need all these commands to take out the enemies without
worrying the enemies behind you. To perform action like use, or call, you
need specify actions to trigger.
Call: Call Al to come to you. Usually appear when you are far away from
him.
Use: Tell Al to use the weapon you transmuted. Appear when you transmuted
a weapon finish and also suitable to Al.
Guard: Call Al to act as a shield and protect you from certain attacks.
Appear when you hold R1 for a moment.
Special: Tag together and perform a powerful attack. Appear when you
have at least one special icon beside the command bar and also
the alchemists magic charge to level 2. You can charge the icon
power by hitting the enemies or use a item call Special Potion.
:Weapon for Al
Ed can transmute object to weapon like Katana and let Al use it. But
there is a limit for Al to use. The weapon will than drop out from Al's
hands once you used a limited of uses. You can prevent from this effect
by equip a Grindstone to Al.
*Remember that if the icon appear blue while Ed is transmuting the object
it means the weapon is mainly for Al.
----------------------------------------
3. WALKTHROUGH
----------------------------------------
Before you start, you can increase your level by fighting the monster in the
place, and if you go to next area, the monster in the previous area will
restore and which means you can fight them infinitely.
Unlike Kingdom Hearts, you can open up the menu anytime you want. Plus you
can use item like Elixir as soon as you receive it.

twist the camera view(by using R3) and have Al directly in front of you. Move
toward to the enemies with R1 hold and crash the enemies when you are very
near them. Continue the tactics with two enemies appear next and then three
enemies again.
Next, you will be almost near the starting point, move to the exit at the
opposite side and remember to get a chest in the middle large space on the
left lower corner.

+===========================================================================+
|Boss Fight: Military Men + Four little minor |
|It's an easy fight. Finish off all the four little minor ASAP. Then hack |
|the main boss with any combo attacks. You will receive a rank after you |
|finish the boss. |
|--------------- |
|For S rank, there is nothing much I can say except defeat all of them ASAP.|
+===========================================================================+
If you have used up the two rubbish bin in the last fight, save and restart.
Once you have save, transmute the rubbish bin to large Lance for Al to use.

talking follow by a boss fight.

|object at the center to grenades which deals a good amount of damage. |
|============================================================================|
|For target S rank, you need some tricks. The requirement to get S rank is to|
|defeat him within 1 min. What I do is to put all the bonus points to Ed's |
|ATK and prepare a Spear for Ed and Lance for Al. Once you are in battle, hit|
|him hard and dodge all his attacks. Try not to let him jump anywhere or |
|knock you away. |

| | | ==================|============
\_ \ Be careful of the turtle chimera which can causes significant
| | damage. Use combo attack like [], [], O, [] as this creature's
/ / weakness is stonespikes.
| | This is a good place for level up, where the game explained
\ | about what is FF. If you stay here for a while for level up,
| | heal yourself with the save point at the previous area.
|_|
---------------[ Reminess Gorge ]
Start off will be around the train path. Before moving close to Alex the
major, move to the very left side where you will causes Ed to jump down to
another small area. *Move along the very left side and make sure you don't
move close to Alex or you can't return back. Once you jump down from the first
area, grab the two chests, Wind and Lightning Elements and move back to the
first area with the ladder and talk to Alex.
> North Trestle
You will unable to return to the previous area. Continue north. Take the
ladder on the right side and climb up, there will be some talking. After that
you will face some enemies.
Finish there off by transmute the box to large weapon and hack them. If you
need some weapon, Dagger or Spear by the object in the southwest.
Head to the very end corner(which is a long straight path) on southwest and
grab a chest and do this again on the northeast. Then follow by NW and go
down using the ladder.
Save once you reach to the broken train track.
> South Trestle
This is a big area. First you will introduce with this excellent Fighting
Frenzy mode which enable you to raise your Exp as well as Atk damage. Finish
the mage(which is a skinny and short guy with a windbreaker and a pair of
white glove) because of his alchemist magic that can easily trip you down.
Next get the gunner and then the bandit.
*If all those enemies dispel all over, transmute the lamppost to a vacuum
cleaner and have all of them keep to one place.
Follow all the way to the end of the train and grab the treasure. Move toward
the bridge at northwest and grab the chest at the entrance of the bridge.
Again, you will face some more enemies. Don't worry as it's more lesser that
just now. Use the same method again and use Elixir if you are low on HP or
head back to the broken bridge just now to recover your HP at the save point.
Soon you will reach big area with big bounders and a seal train track. Again,
you will face all these bandits. Finish them off. Go directly in front with
tons of big rocks. A scene will occur.
You will then back to the starting point. Head to where the rocks are and now
should be open. On your way, you will face some new enemies.
Actually this is not a boss fight. But when first cross with these Chimera,
they are very difficult. What I suggest is to deal them with large weapon like
cannon, or sub-machine gun. If both Ed and Al have high ATK, that deal them
with spear or sword.
Continue the road where Ed just blast the rocks off.
> Mountain Path(South)
After the amine-cut scene, save and move towards the north.
A bunch of chimeras appear next. It's really tough and you can wipe it off by
have a special attack use. Or try and move Ed to the save point and deal them.
If you use this method, head to the save point and recover your health
whenever your HP is low.
This area is also big, but not bigger then just now but certain chest over
here is difficult to get. move to the ladder on your left and jump at the very
edge get the Detrox-Herb from the chest.
Jump down, head to the center where you see a broken ladder. Cast out a
rockblocker near the broken ladder and have Ed to jump on it. Jump and will
causes Ed to climb up to the higher platform. Repeat this process again to get
Wind Elements from the chest.
Jump down and go to the north that is the right side of the middle pillar
where you get the Wind-Elements item. Follow the curve road and head down the
straight path. Again, defeat the enemies which are leopard-looking chimera and
winged-chimera.
Over the next area where you see a ladder and some crates in this area,
defeat all the enemies here. After that, head to the NE and climb up the
ladder. Head to the right and defeat those enemies again. Return back to the
ladder just now and head to the left. Move to the opposite side and be careful
not to fall off while crossing to the opposite side with two large crates.
Cast out a RB in front of the two large crates and jump to another platform.
On your southwest and cast out a RB facing the SW and jump to the higher
platform. Again, repeat the method till you reach the broken ladder. Cast out
a RB and climb up to get a Sliver Bangle from the chest.
Return back to the ladder and head to the right. Head the left where you are
at a T-junction.
> Mountain Pass(North)
If possible, jump down and defeat the enemies before continue forward. Once
finished, head back to the starting point where you jump off. There will be a
ladder to the top platform and opposite contain a chest.
*Before going up, here are chests around there and you can get.
Start off by going to the left, which is one slim stretch path. After you
reach around the middle, where the wood block starts to change the direction
to the north, cast out a RB and jump off to the pillar beside the wood path.
Get the Sliver Plate from the chest. Then jump down and back to the starting
point again.
This time round, take the right path. Jump to the round pillar at the edge of
the wooden path then jump to a small rock path next. Jump to the mental path
and stop directly once you climb up the ladder. Face NE now and cast out a RB
and jump to the chest and get a Growth Seed in it.
Return to the ladder just now and continue your way to the very end and jump
to the right side and get a treasure. Head to the only path left and save.
*If you accidentally get trip off while jump to another side, you will have to
return back to the starting point where are is a ladder. Before climbing up,
transmute the round pillar somewhere near the ladder.
Enter the cave next.
> Cave(South)
Defeat the chimeras and around here you can transmute the objects to landmines
and samurai swords.
After that, head to the right and grab the chest over this straight path.
Return and take the NE path to Cave Center.
> Cave(Center)
It's messy the first time, so I will show you the map.

Now, head to Path number 2.

If you want to archive A rank, prepare a wind elements Dagger.
Save and touch the machine with a yellow marker pointing on it.

Your main priority is to escape from the Big Crab hand and remember you will
have to carry the amount of HP you had to the next battle.
You will have to run down a straight long path with a Big Crab chasing you.
The main point is not run as fast as possible, but to make sure you dodge all
his attacks cause he will catch up with you no matter what. While you running
away, he will have both his claws facing towards the ground and keep moving
and stomping. You will get hurt if you don't run directly in the middle. If
this crab catch up with you, it will swing both his claws and you can dodge

big entrance with a broken pipe in the south of the area. Before enter, turn
back(Which you face those stores) and cast out a RB and jump on it. Once you
reach upstairs, you should get a Sliver Earring from the chest and also 4
tough gorilla-chimera. Be ware and move to the place where the broken pipe is.
Before moving near to the broken pipe, grab the chest at NE corner and also
the west side. Move to the broken pipe next. Grab the Equip-Herb from the
chest and transmute the broken pipe.
Next, you will receive a warm welcome from the bunch of enemies. I suggest
jump out to a bigger area and take your fight. Defeat them using large cannon,
samurai swords etc... Don't hesitate to use any Elixir if you are low on HP.
Return back to where the gate with flame on it at the Central Plaza.
> Central Plaza
Head to the fountain and transmute the fountain. Before continue, you may want
to save before going on.
> Lower Suburbs
Continue north and head left around the middle. A bunch of chimeras appear
next. Defeat them and be ware he will charge at you if they are behind you.
Get the Special Potion inside the chest and return to where you turn right and
go north this time.
If you are around level 10, and also Ed's strength is resounding high,
transmute the object in the center to a Boomerang then again with Level 2 al
magic to a Ring. If not, transmute the Drum to a Samurai Sword or what. Take
the ALC-Herb from the chest at NE then move on to NW.
> Wastelands
Move slowly, you will face a bunch of enemies at your left. If a Razor Ring is
equipped with you, throw at them and all of them should be down by a few hits.
If you missed the object needed to transmute to a Ring, you can get it by the
object at the extremely end at the right side.
Move to the bridge at NE and again a few bunch of enemies. Grab the Elixir at
the lower SW corner. Next go to the bridge at East.
Get the Reloader(Wood) at the left and go right. Notice of the broken fence at
the right side? Jump over it to continue.
Move until you saw a small wooden bridge and stop. Be careful as if you defeat
this guy, another four more will appear.
Left and till the end and save next.
Move straight down once you have save. Get the Fire Elements from the chest
and straight down.
> Lakeside(South)
Defeat the tortoise-looking chimera with ease using stonespikes. There are a
lot of them, you may want to transmute the tree to Large arrow weapon. Be
careful the bees can inflict poison status effect and the tortoise with
paralyzes effect.
Continue down a grab the chest at NW(which hide behind a pillar) and continue
down.
> Lakeside(North)
Move down a little and grab the ALC-Herb from the chest. a few tortoise-
chimera appear a few more. The two brothers will get some talking as you reach
the middle. Ignore what they said and head north next.
There a chest at the NW side stuck between the two pillars from the middle.
Continue north and get the treasure chest near the exit.
> Graveyard
Continue left from Selena's grave and grab the Sliver Earring from the chest
under the bridge. Continue left and head south and get behind the stairs to
get the Growth Seed from the chest. Head to the church and save before enter.
> Chapel
You will received a long talking, an amine cut-scene and a boss fight next.

4. BUG MENU

I noticed the game I got and my friend got it is totally different. In the
sense that I could be able enter to the bug menu and my friend can't.
Once I press down after highlight the option, and press X, you will be in the
bug menu.
The bug menu is where there are lots of words in it, just like below:
_________________________________
| | This bug menu, the stage means which area
| STAGE = 1 | you want to play, and area is which place.
| AREA = 3 | For example, STAGE 1 is at the train,
| | STAGE 3 is at Hiessgart.
| SOUND TEST | For sound test, I will explain later.
| | I am so sorry I could not understand what
| GFLAG 0= OFF | is the S.A. etc...
| S.A. = OFF | But for EDO, AL LV, it means what level
| F.V. = OFF | you want to begin with.
| |
| EDO LV = 1 | Let's say, you choose STAGE as 1, then
| AL LV = 1 | AREA for 3, then EDO LV and AL LV for 10.
|_________________________________| Then you press X while highlighting AREA =
2.
You will enter to train area, at Train Rooftop, and Ed's and Al's will be 10.
You continue and the game will how to control etc.....
For Sound test, highlight and press X. You will enter to another bug menu.
_________________________________
| | This is the sound test menu. SePack to
| SePack = selectSe | XanNo is all about the music, sound you
| SeNo = K_01 | heard from the game.
| SeMtVol = 37 | But for MvNo, is the movies you see.
| Se Vol = 128 | m001 is the very first movie you see
| SeMode = Normal | at the train. But if you shift the cursor
| | to m025, you will see a short movie on the
| BamNo = S06 | song: Inerasable Sin. Beware, if you press
| BamMtVol= 37 | X with "m" beside the MvNo, the game will
| | freeze.
| XanNo = s15 (0) | Also, m024, is a short movie of what
| XaMtlVol= 56 | happend after Armony and her father died.
| | This movie is actually happended at the
| MvNo = m001 | train station. Where Ed rush down after
| MvMtlVol= 125 | the train have stopped at the last station
| | eagerly to go somewhere. While he running
| EXIT | to go somewhere else, he accidently bang
| MODE STereo | to a girl whom is carrying a lot of flower
|_________________________________| in her hands. Both of them fall down, and
all the flower drop to the floor. Soon Ed
and the girl picked up all the flower at the floor. When Ed picks up all the
flower and want to return it to the girl, Ed was surpised by the girl look. It
looks the same with Armony, it's just that she tied her hair and wear like a
maid's costume.
When Ed saw her, Ed felt a little sorry but the girl said: It's ok. Ed then
stand up firmly, with his head lift up, and smile postively and run off.
