Despite naff graphics I am loving this Skies game. Picked it up along with 3 other games (see my £50 in cambridge thread) for a mere £19 and I can't imagine a closer RPG alternative to Zelda. Vast, expansive, encourages exploration and a deep story. In fact as storylines go it moves at a far faster pace than that Wind Waker game.

Great game, feels a bit like Starfox to play (not quite sure why) but of course i mean that in a good way.

If you can find it buy it. You won't regret it. Roll on Skies 2.

Wasted.
All wasted.
*Sob*
Oh! The wastage.

I'm just levelling up before going into the Dark Rift now. Boring, boring - but must be done.

Question: Where do you fight the Ixa-taka (sp?) women who are on the wanted list? The lookout bloke in Horteka said they were flying around before I got him on my crew, but i can't find their ship anywhere.

Er ... what other progress..?
Oh yar - fighting Piastol for the 2nd time, it's very boring. Just casting Skull Shield, Delta Shield and focusing until I've got enough SP to do something interesting.
It would be a lot easier with Drachma as I had his Hand of Fate (Hand of God? cannae remember, like) and beat the shiznit out of both of them.

Got any kits?

If you've got yourself too stuck in a rut you might have to restart.

Yes I do have magic drops but not enough to do much good. I need loads, one every turn for the red giga (5 turns?) and then for Bellezza too.

What so you don't have any magic droplets to use on one character?

Yeh, most people have that, but don't have the points to use it, because they all got knackered after the boss in the pyramid.

There is a point to go onto, there are 30 chams and 3 Abrik chams, and when you get all of them and feed them you get the ultimate attack for Cupil, it's almost as powerful as Vyse is so there's no more girls weaker than boys comment.

If you need assistance with those just refer to Whitestripes DX's guide to it in the walkthrough section.

All the Chams:
How many are there, and how will I know when I've got them all?

I used a couple of Arabik Charms for cupil, got him to.. that big two-handed sword with the name I can't remember.
Any point trying to go any further, or is that it?

Hint:






Is that the bit where Drachma tells you to ***go spend the night at the inn***?

I wonder what you might be supposed to do...
(Actually, I ran around for ages too, before I realised :^) )
