• Alko Speed

For alchemical processes, the game measures the distance your buttwad hero travels. To speed up the concoction, do your alchemical mix and locate a house or space where your hero can walk against the wall or corner. Tilt the joystick off center to get your hero moving and keep it steady. You can use rubber bands, an eraser, paper clips, or just rest your PS2 controller on its 'legs' and flip it so the sticks are kept off center to do this.
Now you can leave it and do something else (like your homework). When you come back, your mixture will be finished done. Most mixes takes only about 3 to 4 minutes real time using this method.

• Alternate Ending

After defeating Rhapthorne, a secret dungeon and town will become available. Finish that quest in the secret town to obtain Argon Ring. Defeat Rhapthorne another time while equipping this item to obtain a slightly different ending.

• Babble Land

After you get the Godbird Soulstone, fly to the area overlooking the desert. Tere you will find a lot of metabbles, sometimes as many as eight in one battle. Unfortunately, there are some other powerful monsters in that same region, so you need to use caution when babble hunting.

• Dancing monsters

Go to the battle records in the menu then choose the defeated monster list. Select any monster that you have defeated (for example, the Monster Slime). Press X button to make him wiggle and press Circle to make him do other things. Try
doing this with all the other monsters.

• Defeating Metal Slimes

In the medical shop, buy the Holy Water. When in-battle with Metal Slime, choose command item and use it on the Metal Slime. It will always do 1 damage. Do this four times for Metal Slimes when you are at levels 20 to 25.

• Determining item upgradability

When you are trying to figure out what items to sell to make extra money, unequip any item you have then go to the alchemy pot. Any item that is darkened cannot be used in the alchemy pot. Thus, you know that it is safe to sell. This is
especially helpful after you make items and you are not sure if they can be upgraded again.

• Dhoulmagus Battle

When you very first begin the fight with dhoulmagus, you should instantly switch the battle functions of Yagun, Angelo and Jessica to fight wisely, or have Angelo and Yangus focus on healing and keep Jessica under your control.
This battle is a very long one and can take up to an hour to complete at lvl 33 to 38. Having all three characters fight on their own can get them killed if they are not properly levelled.
Constantly cast mid heal or full heal depending on how much damage is done to each character. Dont focus on psyching up, its pointless. Keep all your characters equipped with single-ememy attacking capabilities.
Hero: Falcon Blade or better
Jessica: Dragon Tail Whip or better
Yagus: Steel Sycth or better
Angelo: Dream Blade or better
Do not use spears, boomeranges, daggers or hammers. Focus on healing and ability attacks and the battle should be won easily.

• Dodgy Dave trades

500 gold: Trade a Special Medicine
1,200 gold: Trade a Reinforced Boomerang

Big Boss Shield: Trade Crimson Robe
Happy Hat: Trade Sandstorm Spear

• Easy experience

To gain about 1,000 to 2,000 experience points early in the game, once Angelo asks you to check on the Abbot, go to the Ruined Abbey slightly north of there. Instead of flying through the dungeon, walk around until you encounter a Metal
Slime. Metal Slimes will run usually on the first turn, but if not, try hitting it. Metal Slimes have low amount of HP and sometime appear in groups of two. Make sure your main character is equipped with a Boomerang; if you fight two you can hit both of them. Have Yangus attack normally, and do the same with Jessica. Do not use spells, as they have no effect. If you manage to kill the Metal Slime(s), you will be rewarded with about 1,000 to 2,000 experience points, and about 299 to 499 gold. Repeat this as much as desired.
When Angelo asks you to check on the Abbot, go to the Ruined Abbey slightly north of there. Use Angelo's ring to open the entrance underground. Once there, be patient, as at first you will encounter regular enemies. After a few battles you should encounter a Metal Slime(s). They possess only 4 HP but are difficult to defeat because they either dodge or run away immediately. Once you encounter a slime or slimes (up to three), concentrate on only one of them, as it is difficult to kill one. To guarantee a kill, equip a sword with 'The Hero', and you must know the ability 'Metal Slash.' With Yagus, just attack normally. Equip a whip for Jessica and you must know the ability 'Twin Dragon Lash,' which she will strike twice (and make it very likely to land at least one). It is best to train in the Ruined Abbey after you get Angelo, as he also knows the Metal Slash with a sword like 'The Hero.' Since the Metal Slime is metal, when you strike it with a Metal Slash technique it is likely to take 2 HP from the 4 HP that the Metal Slime posseses. When Jessica strikes, it is likely she will land at least one hit and take another HP from the Metal Slime. It is not not important if Yagus lands or not, because Angelo's Metal Slash (which can do up to 2 HP damage) will definitely hit. Thus, you have a guaranteed kill, giving you up to 1,000 or more experience points. Also, it is much faster to use Whistle by Yagus to get into battle much quicker, as the slime appears randomly. Additionally, standing in one location is slower; try running around until the slimes do not appear for awhile. When this happens, change locations and use Whistle.
Go to the area before Maella Abbey and run around until you get into a battle with at least one Dingaling. Kill anything besides the Dingaling(s). After only the Dingalings remain, psyche yourself up, heal, or use magic to raise your stats.
Eventually, with a little patience, one of the Dingalings will call for backup. A Jargon will appear. If you are psyched up, use one person to kill the Jargon. Leave the Dingalings alone, and continue to heal, psyche up, or use stat-raising
magic. Do not kill any of the Dingalings. The more of them there are, the better the chance of them calling for backup. Continue to attack only the Jargons and make sure you continue to psyche yourself up. it is important to kill the Jargons
on the first turn, because they can cause heavy damage and blind your party. If more than one Jargon is called, try using Jessica's psyched up attack. It hits an entire group, and should kill any number of Jargons. When you get low on health, or feel that you have killed enough, simply kill the Dingalings; they are relatively weak. Technically, you can get unlimited amounts of experience per battle. However if you get to about Jargon p or Q, you should get about 1,000 experience points. This is very useful for the area. Make sure to equip your characters with lots of medical or strong herbs.
Metal Slimes in the Ruined Abbey (after you acquire Angelo's Templar ring) are worth about 1,300 experience points per kill; They also work rather well later in the game, but only until about level 22 to 25. Also, do not always wait until your
characters are at a few HP/MP unless they have the Evac and Zoom spells. Fight the Dingaling squads who summon Jargons, and only kill the Jargons with Yangus and the Hero from psyching. This will give you some earlier experience than Metal Slimes, and the experience gained is more stable than trying to kill Metal Slimes.

• Easy gold

Use the following trick to get easy gold on the Island Of The Temple Of Neos. Just southeast of Simpleton are Gold Brick monsters. They are best found on the southern half of the island, around the temple entrance. They are fairly common. They have about 100 HP and the drop about 726 in gold. Sometimes you can find multiple ones.

• Easy Level-Up

An easy way to level up is to head to Tryan Gully. Fight a group of enemies called Bloody Hands, and simply have everyone in the party defend over and over again. Bloody Hands will call for help, so many of them will join the fray. Then you can unleash your attacks and get a lot of experience in return.

• Fast alchemy and Easy cash

Faster alchemy, Just finish the dragovian trials and choose to strenghten the alchemy pot, all recipes will be done imediatly.
Fast and easy money, Buy medicinal herbs for 8 gold each and put two of them into the alchemy pot to get a strong medicine. This strong medicine can be sold for 264 gold. Submitted by Wouter

• Faster alchemy cook time

Alchemy cook time seems to be based on the number of steps taken. To speed up the process, begin a recipe in a town and run in place against a building or object. Corners seem to work best. Your recipe should be ready in a little less than two minutes.

• Fighting Metal Slimes

The best way to kill Metal Slimes is to use attacks that inflict critical damage. The hero's Lightning thrust ability performs a critical attack on these enemies. Another method is to use Falcon Blades, which allows you to attack twice -- this theoretically doubles your chances of inflicting a critical blow.
Make some elevating shoes and set them to your hero. Wander around in the Slime Mountain and kill all metal slimes you come across. Yes, it's hard, but here's how to do it efficiantly. Make sure to use weapons that are capable of using critical strike attacks. Heres the best choices that I have found useful with the most success rate:
Hero - Metal King Spear Lightning Thrust
Yangus - Conquerer's Axe Executioner
Jessica - Poison Needle Assassins Stab
Angelo - Odins Bow Needle Shot
Most of the time, your hero and Jessica will hit with better succession, while Yangus and Angelo can handle the lighter portions of the slimes that appear.

• Final Fantasy 8 reference

Angelo shares the same name as Rinoa's dog in Final Fantasy 8.

• Final Fantasy 9 reference

Alexandria is the name of the Castle where Princess Garnet used the summon to protect herself form Bahamut in Final Fantasy 9. In Dragon Quest 8, that is the name of the town where you meet Jessica.

• Forge Liquid Metal Sword

Get the rusty sword from Trodain. Earn a slime crown by fighting metal slimes or King slimes. One slime crown is inside the well on the hilltop hut. The final ingredient, Orihalcum, is difficult to get with an external cheat device. The easiest source is to accrue 83 medallions and trade them to Minnie for the item. Drop all three ingredients into the alchemy pot for the rare Liquid Metal Sword.

• Forge Metal King Shield

You require the Ruinous Shield, Orihalum, and Saints Ash for this armor. Purchase the Saints Ash from the Dragovian Village after clearing the game once (and do a game clear save, or you'll want to defenestrate yourself after your PS2). The Orihalum is earned by collecting medals and trading enough of them to the island princess north of Peregin Quay. The Ruinous Shield may be found in the air-only part of the island where the Doulmagus was killed (at the mirror puzzle).

• Forge Thieves Key

Put the rusty sword and the iron nail (at Paraguay Quey) to make the Thieves' Key. This item lets you open any locked chest.

• Forge Timbral of Tension

For this item, you require the Sun Crown, Magic Beasts Hide, and Tough Guy Tattoo. The first two items are the ones that are hard to find.
Bag the Sun Crown by finding the Skull Helmet in the second area of the Heavenly Dias, near a dragon skull. Combine it with an Urn of Saints' Ashes to make it. The Heavenly Dias is located by accessing the extra dungeons and Dragovian Sanctuary. Go to Chateau Felix and use the Godbird Stone to land on the platform to portal with the item.

• Gold Golem

Go to the island of Neos. After you get there, go to the southeast part of the island and use Whistle until you see a Gold Golem. Killing them is easy (they have 100-120HP), and they give 756 coins each.

• Heavenly King Sword the best sword

When you complete the game you will in a cut sceene see a red light flash on a stone go here and touch the stone this will unlock a new world when you have found the village go to the house which leads to the heavenly dias. This is dungeon with sort of hard monsters when you complete the boss at the end you will unlock the dragovion trials this is the anoying bit you
will have to if you havent already get to level 65 to unlock dragon soul this gives you a grat advantige because you have to fight him again once you defeat human form guy he will turn into the dragon you fought ealier after this he will turn into a sieries of other monsters they double in toughness each time on toatal there are five hope this helped.

• More defence, attack

Once you have the magic ship go to somewhere where you have not yet been and try to buy weapons,shields,.. there it will make you're battles much easier. Submitted by KingJenne

• More Yggsdrasil Leaves

During the bazarr in Argonia there is a shop that will sell Yggdrasil leaves, but they will only allow you to have one and won't sell another unless you have zero leaves. The game cannot detect items in your alchemy pot. So you can trick the game and stock more than one leaf. Buy a leaf and TEMPORARILY combine it in your alchemy pot with some magic water or some red and blue mold. Then you simply buy another leaf and abort the alchemy pot process and reclaim your first leaf.

• Old equipment

If you get new equipment, do not be steadfast to sell the old. Some of that equipment can be used in the alchemy pot for better items. For example, Bandit's Vest + Bandanna. It is not an overall great item to turn out, but it can be useful in
the very beginning. Also, a normal Boomerang + Iron Nail = Reinforced Boomerang, which is one of the better boomerangs which can be acquired very early.

• Quick gold, experience points

It ain't really a cheat it's more a training hint:
If you finished the quest of the king of Ascantha (make him happier) go back to the mountain where you neede to enter the moon realm.Don't go to the top but just below the top and let Yangus whistle. Several monster (minimum 3) shall come attack you, defeat them and you shall receive atleast 30 gold and 100 experience after the battle.This is much at that time for most of the players.Do this as much as needed.This will to be useful on you're quest later you'll defeat enemies much easier.
Do the same thing at the swordsman labyrint where it's 100 gold and 200 experience.
For the pro's (lvl. 30+) they can go to Savella Cathedral and do the same thing.Morrie's place has the same effect.
At all of this locations there are to Metal slimes so try this it really works. Submitted by KingJenne

• Rare equipment

Save rare equipment early in the game. Do not get rid of items you do not know where to buy or make from alchemy, because you might not get them for a long time; and that will prevent you from making some of the better equipment early in the game.

• Save Money

How to save money:
Once the hero knows how to use zoom you can use it in place of a chinnamaera wing
Once Angelo knows how to cast zing you don't need to go and pay the priest for a resurection. Submitted by KingJenne

• Seeds

Keep seeds for a save point. If you only gain 1 for a stat, so you can reset. The seeds will be more wisely used. Also, use the seeds on characters that need the stat. For example, do not use a Strength seed on Yangus, or a Magic or Wisdom seed on Jessica. You can, but be warned; some characters will be overall weaker if their weaknesses are not compensated.

• Thief's Key

In Farebury, go on top of the church (where the bell is located) and get the Thief's Key recipe. On the ship (just after you defeated the sea monster), search around to find the Bronze Knife. Talk to Trode to get the Alchemy Pot. Once you get to Peregrin Quay, go to the Inn and talk to the man with the black hood. He will talk to you about his days as a thief, then give an Iron Nail. Once you have acquired all the items, put those two items (Bronze Knife and Iron Nail) into the Alchemy Pot. Wait a while until it makes the Thief's Key.

Best Prizes

You can minimize the amount of time you need to spend in the casino by only purchasing the best prizes. This helps to avoid wasting tokens on weaker items. The Gringham Whip is the best whip in the game, making it a good purchase for Jessica. Liquid Metal Armor is one of the best suits of armor in the game and is one of the ingredients needed for Metal King Armor, the best armor in the game. The other pieces of equipment can be good if you get them early enough, particularly the Falcon Blade, but will eventually be replaced by better equipment.

Turning Tokens to Gold

Dragon Quest 8 Casino Guide

The tokens in the casinos have no use other than betting and buying prizes in the casino. Players will often find gold to buy items from shops to be in short supply in “Dragon Quest 8: Journey of the Cursed King.” It is possible to turn casino tokens into gold by buying prizes and selling those prizes to a normal shop. The most lucrative prizes for this are Magic Water in the Pickham casino and Prayer Rings in the Baccarat Casino. These items both offer the highest token-to-gold ratio.
