1) Albel, when you talk to him in Aquios, and that guy is giving him weird looks. ^_^

2) No idea yet.

No actually, Albel is a good trap for that question. biggrin

Nel Super Weapon...you mean skill or weapon? The "Ultimate" weapons in the game suck anyway, they have all those status affects and even removed after spending a legs worth of Fol they still have a slot wasted by +1,000 ATK. Best weapons are made or purchased by Rumina or the Retail Rabbit Youth.

What? Seriously? ... If I think about it, I think the Albel quote was "The people of this city are worms! If you have something to say, come over and say it!" Dammit. >_>

[Teliko Freedman]

Skill set?
Shadow Wave and Ice Daggers are the best to train until you get Mirror Slice at level 50.
At Level 50 I set Ice Daggers to long attack.
After using Shadow Wave for a while til level 50, it's skill level is high enough to the point that it's fast. Chained with Mirror slice to get my favorite combo.
Shadow Mirror Slice.

Ice Daggers to amazing damage against machines.

ill try it out razz now i need to make more exp rings and get 6x the exp for uber lvling XD and that's not adding the 40% bonus from combat training :O

[Teliko Freedman]

I usually just level at the Arena.
Render Tyrant goes down fast if you know the right stuff to use.
That and the EXP boost bonus.

To hell with that 40% bonus, you lose too much Fury.

For Nel have
SX: Stun
LX: (Empty)
SO: Ice Daggers

I find that her best early in the game.

Time for a read lol, Ruddle & Rumina - Retail Rabbit Youth

Ruddle & Rumina

Ruddle & Rumina are two inexperienced travellers you will be able to visit in the Luxury Inn west of Peterny after you have completed the save Ameena quest. They will remain here until the Elicoor II War a little later in the game. This side-quest must be completed by then otherwise they will be gone forever. They will talk for a while basically arguing with other then eventually ask you to give them directions. Once the listed condition is done they will not have listened to you, but it’s supposed to happen. Visit the next nominated area to find them to yet again give them the correct directions.

Refer below for a list of what replies to give them.
1) In the Luxury Inn of West Peterny, reply “its south, didn’t you know that?”.
2) In the “Dozing” Inn of Arias, reply “Go through the northwest gate” or "Easiest way is through the southwest gate" - Either works in this scenario.
3) In the “Wyvern’s Tail” Inn of Airyglyph, reply “You already passed Kirlsa”.

Once you've done the 3 above scenarios in the order shown above you will find these two in the Kirlsa tavern - they will remain here until the end of the Elicoor II War.

Now as your reward they will be able to sell you their goods. One of them are “Blueprints” off Rumina, which Fayt thinks may be a rip-off, believe me they aren’t. Pay the 5,000 Fol; this will be a key miss-able part in getting the best Engineering inventor in the game, Izak. Ruddle will sell various goods, the best of them being the Regeneration Symbol (3% MP Regeneration at intervals), I highly recommend buying up to 8 of them, so every character can have one, also & 'Symbol of Courage' (+1 Battle Bonus Gauge) is a handy item to equip a few melee users with early in the game.

Also by doing this mini quest it will also allow them to appear in a house North-West of Aquaria. This will occur after you have returned to Elicoor 2 late in the game via the Diplo, where they will sell many of the best equipment Fol can buy.


Retail Rabbit Youth

The Retail Rabbit Youth is a bunny salesman that you will find walking around the West of Peterny. Immediately after the Elicoor II war you will be able to buy a Blaze Gun for Maria, handy but not spectacular. This will be the last time you want to talk to him until you return to Elicoor II late in the game via the Diplo on disk 2. At this point he can sell you the best equipment Fol can buy just like Ruddle & Rumina. However this will not be possible if he goes home during the course of the game.

If you wish to talk to him at any other time during the game be sure to save your game first. He will say something like “You’re my last customer before I go home, anything you buy will be less weight for me to carry”; then leaves after the sale reload your most recently save file, you don’t want this little guy to leave. Late on disk two (After returning from Styx) he will say something like “I’m unable to go home, so may as well sell while I’m here”.

Should you keep him in town he will sell the highest quality weapons Fol can buy, which occurs only once you’ve returned to Elicoor II via the anti federation ship, the Diplo. So buy up big if you have spare Fol, they are superior to Laser Weapons & Ablative Shields for most characters. May just be the difference you need to obtain later game Battle Trophies and finish it.

I took that outta a guide I wrote on missable stuff. XD
