"Legend of Dragoon" is a trademark of Sony Computer Entertainment.
This game was released in 2000 as a Traditional RPG. Good graphic and
system. Although it hasn't been attracted as the eminent Final Fantasy
Series, it's still a fine game. I'm a fan of Survival Horror Games and
Traditional RPG. I have been successful at making guides for Resident
Evil Series in Gamefaqs.com and now I continue. "Legend of Dragoon" is
one of my favourite RPG games. So I decide to make this FAQs for the
players who have the same opinion with me. I played this game one years
ago and now it's hard for me to write it again. But I'll try. This is my
favourite work, even my FAQs might not be perfect. But I like to do
something for what I want. You readers can have ideas with the guide or
repair mistakes about spells or guide display. I make this guide for
English version only. But I also write anything I know about the Japanese
version for you readers. Any ideas, contact me at
kthoa@hcm.vnn.vn.

Permit to have the first prologue about this game (got from SCEI):
" Morocco - June 13th 2000
Professor Jonas Van Heukelum and his team uncovered a winged human
skeleton in hidden underground caverns south of the Atlas Mountain
Range. They believed that this discovery was the skeletal remains of the
Dragoons, which according to local folklore, once populated this region.
This exciting discovery spawned a multimillion dollar excavation of
the surrounding area..."
Okay, before we begin, I want to remind you something :

GENERAL NOTES :

- Version Final, fourth update (May 12th 2002)
More mistakes fixed.
More info added.
More websites available to use the guide.

- Version Final, third update (April 11th 2002)
One reader, Alex Sandro Dutra, has emailed me about a little mistake in
"Stardust List". I have missed one stardust location and that's really a
major mistake. As Alex' command, I have fixed it, re-updating the guide
at the same time. Thanks to Alex.

- Version Final (April 6th 2002)
It seems that I need more training at English words. I have spotted
many mistakes about word using that my former process couldn't realize. I
really apologize to those who can't understand what I write.
As some readers' commands to correct those kinds of little mistakes, I
have got some spare time to fix the FAQ again. Hope it'll better now.
Thank you again, my readers ! ^_^

- Version Final (March 19th 2002)
Many emails have been sent again. It's time for me tp update this guide
again. I can't seal my feeling when people heartily read and have ideas
with my FAQ. Big thank to all of you, readers. Today I decide to fix some
points of the guide and make it better-looking.

- Version 8.0 (February 24th 2002)
I have made this guide mainly for fun. I had thought that it was not as
valuable as the former guides, like Desmond Xie had made a very great
guide. But after a time, I couldn't believe that there have been several
emails sent to me asking about this game. Some of them are sent just to
thank. I'm really glad about this, I think that I should do as better as
I can. Today I have taken a whole survey of the guide and repaired
mistakes, added some more notes to boss strategy. Please let me thank you
too all readers.

- Version 7.5 (December 9th 2001)
After some months since this guide was posted in available sites, there
have been several emails sent to me, asking different questions about the
game that I can't show in walkthrough as such very little details. So
then I decide to open a familiar section "Frequently Asked Questions" to
answer questions about those details. Hope that it'll be useful for you.

- Version 7.0 (September 4th 2001)
I have received a mail from a reader named Beno Jange who wanted to
contribute the rule to open the chest in Phantom Ship. I really thank
him about this contribution. His name is written in my "Special Thanks"
menu.

- Version 6.5 (August 20th 2001)
Added "Level up & Level Board" in Basic Terms
Added "Difficulty" in boss strategy
Added "Boss Supporter List"
With the level board, I think the players could know and estimate the
character's status to continue on battle easily. This is also
necessary,too.
The difficulty might help the players to anticipate the next battle
they must fight. I think I'm right to add this.

- Version 6.0 (August 17th 2001)
Added "Mini-game List"
Added "Other characters"
Added "Song Lyric"
Added "Story and Timeline"
Repair mistakes
I added these parts for the guide to be more perfect and useful. With
the "Story", the readers who want to find out about the game without
playing or take a glimpse at it can understand about "The Legend of
Dragoon". This story is written following the order of walkthrough and
the full story of the game. It could explain to you the illogical
episodes or the real story of the game. I have told very carefully in
this part.


- Version 5.0 (August 16th 2001)
Added "Special Enemy list"
Change some topics
Added "Game Shark Codes"
"Enemy List" is also necessary for a real FAQs. The change is only an
optional part. Game Shark Codes could have this guide grown. I think I
still add more thing. This is not enough...

- Version 4.0 (August 11th 2001)
Complete the "Additions"
Added "Shop List"
Added "Related Character List"
"Additions" are important in the game. But the bad truth is that I
can't play all of them. Anyway, to write this guide, I have tried to do
my best and collected information from other sources with official
purpose. "Shop List" and "Related character List" are only optional, but
I think I should make them, too.

- Version 3.0 (August 10th 2001)
Repair the whole FAQs
Added "Martel's Items"
Added "Prologue"
Added "Dragoon Spell Effect"
Now this guide is almost complete. I just add more menus and important
parts to make the FAQs more various and have enough information for
players. Collecting information is my most necessary work.

- Version 2.0 (August 7th 2001)
Added "Armor List"
Added "Save & Rest"
Repair "Dragoon System"
Repair mistakes
These parts are really hard. I must try to collect all the items and
spells to establish the menus. Write lists of items or equipments are
not my good job. But I will try.

- Version 1.0 (August 1st 2001)
FAQs started...
This is my first guide for a Traditional RPG. I hope it would be
successful...

**********************************************************************

======================================================================
A. CONTROLS
======================================================================
- Circle : Run/avoiding counter attack
- Cross : OK/using additions
- Square : N/A
- Triangle : open menu screen
- R1 : rotate the angles in world
turn on/off the showing arrow
- R2 : zoom out the world map
rotate the battle field camera angles
- L1 : rotate the angles in world
zoom in the world map.
- L2 : zoom in the world map.

* WHAT'S THE MEANING OF THE SHOWING ARROW ?
The arrow shows you your position. It's always on your character
unless you turn off it. Its colors have meanings,too :
- Blue : you are in fine condition.
- Yellow : you are gonna to the dangerous area.
- Red : you'll be attacked soon.
The colors inform when you will face the random battles. That means
you can guess your current situation and prepare to fight. Final Fantasy
series doesn't have this.

=========================================================================
=
B. BATTLE SYSTEM
=========================================================================
=

*************
BASICS :
****************************

- HP : Hit Points. It represents your health. This is your standard
stat. If HP reaches 0, your character is dead. He/she can be directedly
revived by Holy Ankh, or they will be automatically recovered with 1 HP
when the current battle is ended.
Items for HP : Healing Potions, Healing Fog, Healing Breeze, Healing
Rain.

- MP : Magic Points. It represents your magic capacity. You have this
when you are dragoons.
Items for MP : Sun Rhapsody, Moon Serenade

- SP : Spirit Points. It represents your chance of turning into
Dragoons. You must have at least 100 SP to transform once. Your limit
for transformation is 500 SP. Collect SP by using manual Additions. SP
only appears you have Dragoon Spirits.
Items for SP : Spirit Potion


********************
BATTLE COMMAND
******************************

- Attack : beat and using Additions
- Guard : make a protective layer and restore a little HP which is equal
to 1/10 your Maximum HP. When the enemies attack you in "Guard" state,
you only lose 1/2 the HP you must lose in ordinary state. This command
also helps you to avoid any status abnormalities the enemies make on you,
except instant death.
- Items : Using Item in battle.
- Escape : get out of battle. This isn't often effective, especially the
bosses.


****************
ADDITIONS
**************************
- Each time using attack command, in the right bottom appears a symbol
of the X button. Just press "X" as the blue signals turn white until
you finish the addition. If you miss, the addition is cancelled
suddenly.


****************************
ENEMY COUNTER ATTACK :
************************************
- Sometimes the enemies attack you when you are executing Additions. At
that time, the signal is red and the pressing button is "Circle". If you
press it at the right time, you can continue to finish Additions. If not,
you'll be thrown and lose a great deal of HP.


*****************************
SHOWING ARROWS IN BATTLE
******************************************
- Have you paid attention to the showing arrows for each character or
enemy in battle ? It's not like the showing arrow in ordinary state. It
also has three colors :
+ Blue : the target's HP is more than half
+ Yellow : the target's HP is about half
+ Red : the target's HP is gonna be close the death.


===========================================================
C. LEVEL UP
===========================================================

- LEVEL UP :
You increase your character's status by leveling up. Level is counted
by experience signified EXP. You collect EXP by fighting enemies. The
stronger enemies are, the more EXP you collect, especially the bosses. In
a battle with runaway enemies, you get no EXP. If any character dies in
battle, they don't receive EXP and then are revived with 1 HP. Each level
is increased by certain number of EXP.
