Starting Vagrant Story Again......Any Tips ?

[Masamune·1600]

It's impossible to achieve 100% map or treasure completion on a first game, as numerous areas are sealed off with the "Rood Inverse." Given that you've finished the game, Ashley will be able to enter areas sealed with the Rood on subsequent playthroughs. This will eventually lead to the Gold, Platinum, and Steel Keys, as well as the Sigils needed for the time trials in the Keep.

Does anyone know what is the max map percentage you can get playing the game through once? Coz I only got 70%, but after I beat the game, I remembered I had forgotten a door. Did I lose 30% because of this door?

Much of the undiscovered map is the result of areas sealed with the Rood Inverse, although a first playthrough can yield somewhere around 85%, if I recall correctly.

I realized why his special was killing me in one hit... because i wasnt in battle mode so i didnt have my shield up!

I finally beat the game after spamming all of my hp/mp/risk items.
Thanks for the help yuno, those combos are what really did the trick.
My 5 dmg turned into combos of 25 dmg after like 7 consecutive combos.

no problem.glad i cud help.my first few tries fighting him,guildenstern always pwned me.my armor affinities were not so high because i dont let myself get hit that much.i had totally no idea how to stop that smurfin' bloody sin.until i realized WHY the camera angle shifts overhead before bloody sin.dang it,i shud have realized that much sooner.everything became much easier since then.
