Gameplay Tips

All of the Richter's combo moves are usable while you are in mid-air after being unlocked so don't be afraid to experiment with them. Combo move (cost MP40, available at start): F,D,B,U,F.

Some Maria's spells cannot be charged. This means that they can be used just like normal subweapons so you can utilize them while being in mid-air aswell just like Richter. However some of the bigger spells still need to be charged for power and due to this they can't be utilized while being in mid-air.

The TALK option in the pause menu has a lot of new information added to give you hints on new mechanics provided on this hack.

Learn the weaknesses/resistances of your enemies to utilize your weaponry and spells most effectively.

Dual Crushes are updated to scale from both characters STR and INT instead of LVL like in original so feel free to experiment with them.

Note: It is highly recommended that you play this hack with a joypad or controller for the best experience.
