Decoder #8 - When you visit the Dock Colony for the first time, a woman
in front of the clinic tells you of a Fish Detector that her husband
lost. Go to the Kukai Foundation's cleaning place and inspect the tuxedo
to find the Fish Detector. Talk to the girl in the Iron Man bar, sitting
at the lower left table. She says that she lost an important ring and
asks you to find it. Go to the Private Beach and go in the water where
the fish show up on the radar screen. Run up to every fish and press
Circle. Sometimes you will get an item, and sometimes you will not. You
can get a Med Kit, a Speed Stim, and the Engagement Ring. If you return
to the beach on any return trips, the Med Kit, and Speed Stim will be
there again. Give the ring back to the girl in the bar. She will give
you the Decoder #8 to open the red door.
Destroying objects - After receiving an e-mail about the "vapourizer
plug-in". press Square on an object with target to destroy them. When
multiple objects are nearby, you can switch targets by pressing L1 or
R1.
Defeating Zolfo and the two Mecurio - Since Zolfo will not attack until
both Mecurio are out, take out the Mecurio as Zolfo will use his
shields.. If you use Momo's Sleep Ether attack (to the right of life
shot), it will put one of the Mecurio to sleep. When it is Zolfo's turn,
he will attack his own Mecurios and reprimand them for sleeping. This
should hurt them for at least 100. Attack once or guard with Ziggy. When
you have the AP, attack the one that is awake (if any). Zolfo becomes
quite easy when they are both gone; just heal and attack as usual.
Easy cash - Get the Casino Card from the Durandal's Casino (north and
east of Shione's room on the Durandal). Then, play Poker. Start with 100
coins (900 bucks) and play level 1 until you get about 200. Then, move
straight to level 3 until you get about 700. Then, play level 4. The way
to always beat the house is as follows. Always hold a pair or any other
scoring combo. After you win, always do double or nothing. If the number
is greater than 7 bet low, if the number is 8 it is your choice, and if
the number is 9 or above it is best to go low. After
accumulating about 45000 coins, get 99 starter decks of cards and sell
them for 20,000. It takes a total of two hours to make about 100,000
(and all the prizes and art.)
Easy Tech, Skill, and Ether points - Use the following trick in the very
beginning of the game for easy Tech, Skill, and Ether points. However,
it can only be done with Shion. Go to the Gear hanger. Talk to the man
that is working on a Gear. He will ask if you want to do a simulation.
Say "Yes" and go into battle Winning this battle will earn you 16 to 180
points depending on if you got a x2, x4, or x10.
Easy leveling - Enter a battle where you know the character you wish to
level up is capable of taking on the enemy(s). It may be helpful to move
that character into the back row before the battle begins, as you want
the other two characters in the front to intentionally be killed. When
this is done, move your character to be leveled up back into the front
row and defeat the enemies. By doing this, you do not have to share the
EXP, Tech, Skill, or Ether points.
Hazardous Area Map - On board the Elsa, you will see the pilot walking
around in Hangar 1 (A.G.W.S. hangar), looking for a map. He does not
give any concrete details, except to look everywhere, and that the
captain wants it. To get the map, speak with the captain on the bridge.
He will give it to you to take to the pilot.
In-game reset - Hold L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 + Start + Select during game
play.
Keeping Shion safe during the Gnosis attack - During the Gnosis attack
on the Starship Woglinde at Shion's second encounter with the Gnosis, as
they chase her she must run through the partition and quickly press the
red switch on the other side to close it to stop the Gnosis from
touching her. As this is difficult to do, there is a second, easier
option. Have Shion keep running. Ignore and pass both red switches. Go
through the open door into the empty room a few steps further down the
hallway. Wait a few seconds in the room. The Gnosis will lose
track of Shion. Then, give up and return to where they were before the
chase. The coast will be clear and Shion can go safely to her next stop.
Game completion data - Once you complete Xenosaga - Episode 1, after the
ending credits roll, the game will ask if you want to save. Answer "Yes"
and the game completion data will be saved. Although you cannot load
this saved game data with the Episode 1 game disc, do not delete it. It
is likely that this game completion data will be used to load your
characters stats into Xenosaga - Episode 2.
Playing mini-games - To play mini-games, you must have the game
passport. You can get them by talking to certain people in the game.
Once you have the passport, go to a save point
with "EVS" above it. Once there, you go to the menu and select key-item.
Choose the game passport you want to play and press Action.
Momo's first transformation - Go to the Cathedral Ship (inside the
Gnosis). When you get to the stairs to go up (not the ladder), have Momo
as your lead character and search near the boxes. It should be there.
Slide Deck Key - When you are onboard the Elsa, before the ship is
attacked, you can speak to the repair robot in the A.G.W.S. hangar. He
mentions that he is the hardest worker, and that while he was cleaning
one of the cabins he lost his key to the Slide Deck. The key can be
found on the couch in the lounge of Cabin 2 (the southern-most cabin).
Skip scenes - Whenever you are viewing a previously watched scene, press
Start then press Triangle. You will then skip the entire scene until you
are in quest mode again.
