Hint:
Demon Mask:
Get the townspeople to hate you by killing civilians. Afterwards, talk to
the neutral job broker in Amakaze. He will tell you to defeat 100 guards at
the shrine. If you defeat them all, you can buy the Demon Mask at any
textile store for 1,000 Mon.
Hint:
Excalibur:
The sword that the government general had in the original Way Of The
Samurai is also in Way Of The Samurai 2, except it is called
Excalibur. To get this sword, you must be extremely loyal to the town's
people (do a lot of jobs from the Amakaze Inn Job Broker). Once you have
earned enough trust from the townspeople, go to the sword informant at the
Amahara Shrine. She will say something about a wild dog visiting Amahara.
Quickly go directly to Otemon Gate and talk to the foreigner. Make sure to
agree to fight him. Be prepared for a tough fight, and try not to break his
sword or all your hard work will be for nothing. Just in case, save the ame
before this tough fight. Before you get this sword you must to visit the
sword informant at least one time. Note: To get this sword, you cannot fail
a single Amakaze Inn job. Try to save the game frequently before jobs. Also,
do not pick fights with people unless someone attacks you first, and do not
rob any stores. Also, this must be done under the normal, hard, or sudden
death difficulty settings.
Hint:
Murasame:
The Murasame is obtained under the normal or hard difficulty setting. Select
to work for either the Aoto gang or the Magistrates' office. Make sure that
whichever you choose, you are completely loyal to the selected job broker.
If you choose Aoto, do not work any other broker during the entire game. The
same goes if you choose the magistrates; work only for them. One very
important factor is that you must not fail a single job from either man you
selected. If you chose to work with the Magistrates' office and you have
done sufficient jobs, he will give you a job where he will ask you to kill
the Aoto Gang job broker. This man wields the Murasame. Kill the job broker
and collect his sword. This is the simpler way. Your other option is to work
for the Aoto Gang instead and kill the Magistrate job broker when the job
arises. After you do this, during the next nighttime period, approach the
edge of town. A samurai will be there with a name above him reading
"Killer". Talk to him and you will fight him. After his death, he
will admit who sent him. Confront the Aoto gang broker as soon as this
happens (as in the same time period), and choose the option to kill him.
After you are victorious, you will have his sword, the Murasame.
Hint:
Sword Powder:
Start a score under any difficulty setting and wait until late at night. Go
Numata-Cho and kill the blacksmith. He drops a Sword Powder which will add 5
Attack to your weapon. Repeat this for unlimited Sword Powders.
Hint:
Weapon Safe upgrade:
You can increase the size of your weapon safe by talking to a woman next to
the blacksmith at night time. She will increase the size of your safe for
the following prices.
Increase from 20 to 30 slots:
500 Mon
Increase from 30 to 40 slots: 1000 Mon
Increase from 40 to 50 slots: 1600 Mon
Increase from 50 to 60 slots: 2400 Mon
Increase from 60 to 70 slots: 3200 Mon
Hint:
Special accessories:
Get 2,100 points to unlock
the Afro.
Get 2,400 points to unlock the Shades.
Hint:
Getting money: Go to the shrine during the day and you will see a boy named
Kotsubo. Talk to him to fight a random "Boss" to earn Mon. If you
lose the fight, you will lose Mon.
When you complete a job you
will get paid some money. The Majistrates pay the most for jobs. The Aoto
gang pays slightly less. The Job broker pays the least.
Pickpocketing can only be done
if you do jobs for the Aoto clan. After you do a few jobs you will get a job
that requires you to pick a Magistrate's pocket. This is done by simply
bumping into him from his front. Once you get this mission, you will be able
to pickpocket for the rest of the game. You can get 10 Mon, 5 Mon, or 1 Mon
by doing this. You can pickpocket the same person as many times as desired.
Trying to pickpocket a Magistrate and Aoto gang member will probably result
in them attacking you (and no money from them).
Every time you kick a foreigner
he will drop 5 Mon. Cutting down innocent people will get you some Mon
sometimes. If you cut down too many people stores will not let you buy or do
anything in them.
Breaking boxes will almost
always get you some money or the occasional rice ball. Breaking buckets and
pots though fun will not get you anything.
Hint:
Festival fight: On the 26th, during festival battle, sheathe your weapon and run
away. The opponents will kill each other, even if you are not fighting. Kill
off any survivors afterwards.
Hint:
Quick item pick-up: To quickly pick up an item, even in battle, hold R1 and
tap Square when you are near the desired item.
Hint:
Unlimited food: In Part 1, Start a new game under the easy difficulty setting.
Bring a good weapon. Talk to the "no name girl" at the begging and
say "Thanks, you saved my life!" to skip past her part. When you
talk to the Aoto Gang 3, say "I'm searching for the way of life"
and they should leave you alone. Go to the Magistrate's office and complete
the intermission sequence where you have to fight Goshiro. In Part 2, after
the first part, keep going to the Magistrate's office and getting jobs.
Sleep when needed and keep doing jobs for them. Note: Do not anger or harass
people or this will not work later. A day before the Festival on the 26th,
on the morning of the 25th, go to Otsuka-cho (where your home is located).
Go to the greengrocer there. Buy lots of radishes then go back to the map.
Press Start, display the menu, then choose "Safe
Selections". Open your item box and store them. Go back and repeat
until you are out of money. Then, either finish a game mode or leave Amahara
and save the game. In Part 3, once you have done all this, start a new game
in any mode. In the starting screen where you can select swords and your
look, go to items and take out as many radishes as desired. You can keep
doing this trick repeatedly to get more food, and can get food from your
safe at any time in any game. Note: If you die you will lose all of your
items, swords, and money you are carrying if you save the game afterwards.
Note: Radishes cost 250 Mon at the greengrocers. Radishes heal 600 HP.
Hint:
Sleeping:
Nap: 1 time period
Lie down: 2 time periods
Sleep a bit: 3 time periods
Sleep: 4 time periods
Deep sleep: 5 time periods
Hint:
Broken sword warning: If you have Dojima work on your sword and he says "There's
not much more i can do for this weapon", do not have your sword worked
on. If you choose to have it worked on, it could break and you will lose
that sword.
Hint:
Gold title: To obtain the Gold title, find a weapon with a quality of at
least 15. Have Dojima assess the weapon's quality. This increases the
quality by 5.
Hint:
Ogre title: To obtain the Ogre title, improve a weapon's attack to at least
100. Talk to Dojima the Blacksmith, and have him assess the weapon's attack.
This will improve your attack by 100 with absolutely no side effects. A
weapon can only be assessed one time.
Hint:
Pure title: To obtain the Pure title, improve a weapon's defense to at least
45. Talk to Dojima, and have him assess the weapon's defense. This will
improve your defense by 20, again, with no side effects.
Hint:
Silver title: To obtain the Silver title, find a weapon with a quality of at
least 11. Have Dojima assess the weapon's quality. This increases the
quality by 2.
