I updated the current route.. this should clear my mind a bit about everything I done before, from the beginning of the run:
----------------------
Goal/Challenge:[*]Manipulate Luck
[*]Do not abuse programming error/unglitched
[*]No uncouncious status/out of battle
[*]Best Ending
----------------------
LEGEND:
-!!!- : Those highlighted in red are mistake or something that I could improve.
-???- : Those highlighted in blue are questions, suggestions, untesting stuff, information to fill etc..
==> : Those highlighted in green are commentary or extra information.
----------------------
PS1 POWER ON
* Title Screen > New game
* Hero Name : A
-!!!- Quite uncreative, I mean call the hero "B" or something else won't loose any time, since I have to give him an another different name at Greenhill. In fact, calling the hero "Riou"/"Ryo" isn't that bad either time-wise and this might help for general entertainement.
* So Jowy talk with us... > choose sleep
* Menu > Remove boots from the hero and jowy and set the dialog text "fast"
-!!!- Removing boots for skipping the small Barbara gossip isn't a good idea, since we might want more extra boots for selling purpose(can sell them for 400potch each one).
* _Leave the camp and go to north_
* Fight with highlanders > Get Medecine
==> Doing unite attack isn't the best idea, since the animation is quite long and it won't kill the "Commander soldier", so standard battle with multiple hit should be quicker(despite we use a FlamingArrow scroll, from Jowy).
-!!!- Picking the medecine enemy drop is useless, MegaMedicine[x2] or the cape should a bit more worthfull to sold.
* Accept to scratch the rock
-???- I'm still very unsure if this could save some time to "don't scratch the rock". Actually we can see the the result of choice in a future flashback(when getting the true rune), but I don't know if there any other side effect.
* Intro/Flashback cutscene
* Viktor fishing us from death.
* Some Polh jobs
-!!!- Pushing the first two box looks cooler.
* Polh ask for 2 boots, 3 flints and a bag of flour.
* Don't talk to Barbara.
-!!!- Uh oh, we can get some easy money here. Just ask for 2 boots, equip one on the hero... then ask for 3 more boots. (the hero can wear maximum 2boots)
* Ask 3 flints to the blacksmith
-???- There a way to keep 2 other extra flints in the items party... but this is probably useless, since we can sell this.
* Talk to Polh for buying the missing flour in Ryube.
* Gengen and tuta accept to help us and join the party.
* Going for Ryube.. doing the floor quest and come back.
-!!!- Remove any valuable items from Tuta and Gengen should be handy for getting more money.
-???- Ryube Shop list (maybe there some item missing, this data are from my own testing and infos from GameFaqs):
Ryube Item shop : Medecine[x6](100potch), EscapeTalisman(500potch), Antitoxin[x4](200potch)
Ryube Item shop rare: MegaMedecine[x3](500potch)X4 FlammngArrows[x2](700potch)X6
Ryube Armor shop: Bandana[Def+1](50), LeatherHat[Def+2](100potch), Robe[Def+1](100), Tunic[Def+2](200potch), Leggings[Def+2](200potch)
Ryube Armor shop rare: BrassArmor[Def+6](1000potch)X2
Weaponsmith: level 2 max
==> example: "FlamingArrows[x2](700)X6" The [x2] means that the quantity for one slot items is 2, (700) means that we can bought this for 700potch and X6 means that from my own testing we can have up to "6 remaining FlamingArrows scroll" from the rare item list.
* Going back to MercenaryCamp(Gengen&Tuta leave the party, etc..)
* Some Polh jobs again
* Jowy manage to spot the hero and help getting out of here... it fail.
* No big deal, the second escape attempt work.
* Going to Ryube
* Bolgan,Rina&Eilie join the party
==> When Eillie trow her knife in our face, that deal maxHP/2... If the hero has at 1hp should be set a 0hp, but won't be in uncouncious status, weird(minor glitch).
-!!!- Remove the junk(boots, mega/medecine, etc) from the caracther, sell and buy as many FlamingArrows scroll as possible. I'm still unsure if the AngryBlow scroll(lightning) should be in the junk pot, as well.
* Go to the Sparrow Pass aera.
* Get the Fire Wall rune scroll from chest
==> Should help the DoubleHead Snake boss(I can get this item when comming back from kyaro, as well).
* Fight with the Mist Shade boss(800hp) (weak against fire)
-!!!- The caracther affinities should work fine with scroll as well. So a better strategie would be to spam FlamingArrows again and again(but keep at least one). Althought, this still need more test here and there.
==> The loot is about 2000potch with KindnessDrops[x4].
* Go to Kyaro town
-!!!- Before Bolgan, Rina&Eilie leave the party we should remove from them any valuable item (do not sell the sacrifice jizo, since it's a requirement to recruit Adlai with his elevator)
-???- Kyaro shop list:
Kyaro Item shop : Medecine[6](100potch), Antitoxin[x4](200potch), EscapeTalisman(500potch), Glove[Def+2](300), CheekGuards[Def+3](1000)
Kyaro Item shop rare: AngryBlow[x2](700)X5,Winged Boots[Def+14/Spd+10](10200potch)X?
* Do not recruit Mukumuku, right now.
==> It's somewhat quicker to recruit Mukumuku in the path Greenhill-MuseBorder, because all you need is a free slot and he's instant join you.
-???- Althought recruiting Mukumuku might still have few benefits, because he as an "E affinity with fire". This means that he could deal few powerfull attack with FlamingArrows/Fire wall against the DoubleHead Sneak(fire weakness)... Need some test to know how good is the ratio between the powerfull attack and the animation time with fire rune.
* Meet Nanami behind the grandpa dojo (she join the party).
* Get the genkaku famous vase(medium) : value 3000potch
-???- Easy money, but this require some time for appraising, does this worth?
* Fight with highlanders(use FlamingArrows scroll) > Get hazy rune (sold for 2500potch)
* Flik and Viktor come save us (they join the party)
* Jowy ask for going to save nanami... deny.. 3time(timesaver)
==> This is a timesaver and anyway, she should show up after we got the true rune(with Mukumuku, if we recruit him before).
* Going to Sparrow Pass
* Get an Celadon urn from the BonBons (a requirement for Lebrante)
-!!!- It sound like we can buy a Celadon urn for about 7666potch in Gregminster... This way, I suppose that we can recruit him after killing Luca Blight.
* Get 7 double beat rune from the CutRabbit
-???- 2-3 runes should be enough? Now luck manipulation should be easier/quicker with lua-script.
* Get 3 Peeing boy ornament from BanditC. (sold them in a tradder post for about 31998potch in SouthWindows --> instant recruit for Gordon)
-???- Get all those items is long and painfull... I heard that there a way to raise the market value for the "Crystall ball" in the Kobold village for a hillarous price... but I still need to test this further, since the might ve ancient text better.
* Get an EscapeTalisman in the chest and FlamingArrows from Killerbee.
-!!!- Probably my biggest error in the run... just don't do this. Those item are quicker to just bought them.
* Going to MercenaryCamp ( Fliktor leave and now we can recruit people)
-???- Mercenary Camp shop list:
Mercenary Camp Item shop : Medecine[x6](100potch), Antitoxin[x4}(200potch), EscapeTalisman(500potch), Cheeks Guards(1000potch)
Mercenary Camp shop rare: Gautlet[Def+4](1700potch)X2
Weaponsmith: level 3 max
* Going to Ryube
* Pay some food to Rikimaru(3000potch) and recruit him.
-!!!- Instead, it sound like it would be better to directly fix the bird's ness in the forest, since we have to spare some before Kinnison&Shiro show up.
* Talk to Millie and accept to help her.
-!!!- Before we doing this, we should buy some addionnal FlamingArrows in the item shop and then recruit Rikimaru.
==> By the way, Millie is alway located at NorthEast of Ryube... the only time where she's walking around south is while we have to bought flour with Genen&Tuta.
* Once in the forest we can start to enter in some random battle and fleeing them.
==> We have to flee from 50battles in order to recruit Stallion and we have to spare some time for Kinisson&Shiro, so let's just flee, flee, flee.
* Fight with bonaparte(600 hp) (weak against fire)
==> The hero have to knockdown the monster(once each turn, beside the last one), whileJowy&Millie should use some FlamingArrows scroll, since they can deal some extra domage their excellent affinity.
* Got 3 killer rune(easier for critical hit)
-!!!- There no time to get such items.
* Spare time with random/fleeing battle.
* Recruit Kinnison&Shiro
* Leave the forest
* Enter in the Inn ask for saving, leave and repeat once again
==> This way, Pilika should show up quicker...
* Go to Toto village(metting Pilika event)
-???- Toto Shop list :
Toto Item shop : Medecine[x6](100potch), EscapeTalisman(500potch), Cape[Def+1](400potch), Wooden Shoes[Def+1](100potch)

Appraiser: 100potch
Blacksmith: Closed
* Sells 1 Peeings boys, genkaku vase, Jowy Astreide ring and any other items. Then bought the wooden amulet.
-!!!- I made a little mistake.... do not sell the SacrificeJizo (required in order to recruit Adlai).
-???- I'm still unsure if I should buy some fury rune... those a quite expensive(15000potch).
* Get out of Muse and walk to Toto Village.
* The village is already ruined. Talk with Pilipka&Apple
* Go to Mercenary Camp
* Talk with Fliktor
* Ask the blacksmith to raise the hero's level weapon up to 3.
==> I made few test and I feel like sharpening won't help to deal more domage in dual. Althought, there aren't any lost time there, since you have to sharpen your weapon up to level 16, in order to recruit Genshu.
* Accept to bring the FireSpear(+2000potch)
* Go to Ryube, enter into the forest and meet Tsai
* Back to Ryube, the place is burned up by Luca Blight.
* Come back to Mercenary Camp.
* Dual with Flik
* New Army Name > A
* First tactical wars(7 combat animations)
==> The main strategie is to manipulate luck... sometime you can have different result if you let Apple handle your turn.
* Second tactical war(0 combat animation)
==> Just move the hero unit outside of the Mercenary Camp.
* The Highlander are in the forteress.
* Talk to Jowy and accept to rescue Pilika.
* Fight with Highlander > Get MegaMedecine[x2]
-!!!- This is probably an useless item.
* Go in the main office and escape the aera with Pilika.
* Once outside, the new team should be: Shiro, Rikimaru, Jowy, Hero and Millie (require some luck there and Zamza isn't aivable).
* Go to Toto village
* Recruit Hanna
* Get the true rune
-???- There it's possible to recruit Templeton at the Mercenary Camp or just wait to recruit him next him your around the place(this should be after beating Luca Blight). If you do not recruit him now, you have to get every other possible recruit, in order to have the Castle level 3, before the first visit at ToranRepublic.
* Go to MuseCity and talk with the Guard.
* Meet Nanami and her in the party.
==> If you did recruit Mukumuku before, you have to remove someone else from the party.
* Go in the WhiteDeerInn.. sleep there and accept to explore the SindarRuin with Alex.
WhiteDeerInn Item shop: Medecine[x6](100), ThroatDrops[x4](200), LeatherCape[Def+5](1300), Leggings[Def+2](200)
WhiteDeerInn rare Item shop: SacrificalJizo(5000)X2, ???
WhiteDeerInn Rune shop: Fire(6000), Earth(4000), Pixie(4500), Kite(8000)
WhiteDeerInn rare Rune shop: ???
* Attach few rune on the teams.
-!!!- If you forget to keep the SacrificalJizo, you can buy another one here, but this is quite an anooying error.
==> Millie have to be level 12, at least to get a new rune slot.
* Enter into the SindarRuins
* Get the AngryBlow scroll in the chest
!!!- This scroll is about the animation duration and deal about the same domage(with the magic user) as FlamingArrows Scroll against DoubleHeadSneak... but the time to get this item is quite long too, this should be skipped.
* Get the FireLizard rune in the chest.
-???- This is a good items, but it's possible to have another one in a random battle... so how many are enough?
* Get a random battle against salamander and rape them with TwinklingBlade(30%SuddenDeath) with Jowy Blackrune.
==> This battle should help Jowy to unlock his third rune attack(level 13)... this should deal about 700DMG to 1 enemy.
-!!!- The enemy can drop a FireLizard rune with the right luck, might be nice to get one next time.
-???- There is a MagicDrain rune that can be found in a chest(sell value is 15000potch). Might worth a detour.
* Fight with DoubleHeadSneak(2500hp) (weak against fire) > Drop Spark
-!!!- The some long/weak attack that can be removed like the multiple Nanami hit or ShinningLight from the Bright rune.
-???- I think there could be a way to cast an extra FireWall attack, if we get Mukumuku earlier and we attach to him a FireRune. Althought, recruit him is quite long too. Need more testing there.
* Open the treasure chest and get back to the WhiteDeerInn with an EscapeTalisman.
* Accept to help Hilda to cure her sickness.
* Get the HeallingHerb and bring them back.

* Meet Elza&Clive
* Enter in the City Hall and talk with Anabelle
* Talk to Jess and accept to become a spy for the union-state.
* Come back to the Muse tavern
==> It's possible to recruit Tuta there, but there seriously no need since she should join us automatically, once we got our castle and the hero is the official leader.
* Talk to Leona to fix the teams(Hero, Nanami and Jowy are enough).
* Talk to Anita(first time).
* Leave Muse city
==> While doing this, Elza should appear and give a SoundSet#1 as gift (required in order to recruit Connel).
* Go to the HighlandBorder and let's infiltrate the camp.
* Answer yes to the guard.
* Before leaving the place, get the FireSealing rune in the chest and enter into the Jillia hut for tea time. Once over flee the aera.
* First fight with Highlander
* Jowy leave the party.
* Second fight with Highlander > Silence rune(selling value 4500potch)
-???- I'm still unsure if there some good use for this rune, but since it's the only one in the game... why not?
==> The Hero and Jowy leve should grow up 22, while Nanami is about 30. Proof that this game don't need any glitch to become powerfull.
* Let's go back to MuseCity and visit the City Hall.
* Go at the pub and talk with Flik&Viktor.
* Talk to Anita(second time)
* Once again proceed at the City Hall and talk to Anabelle about the spying report.
* Talk to Nanami at the gate of Muse City and deny to stay with her.
* Keep waiting at the tavern and Nanami should bring Jowy back.
* Talk to anita(third time) and recruit her.
* Go in Jowston Hill and accept to watch the discussion between the union-state leader...
* Talk to Viktor and agree about helping them with Muse defense.
* Tactic war(16 battles animations) > Keep Gilbert alive(wounded is ok).
==> I feel like the main strategie is just let our allie/enemy kill themself. Once an unit is dead, he can't play anymore and waste all the turn with those battle animation.
* Once the skirmish's over go to sleep (while this time, Jowy is talking with Kage).
* Go to the City hall and speak with Anabelle.
* Come back at the tavern and Jowy leave the party.

WIP:

http://suikoden2.googlecode.com/svn-history/r48/trunk/suiko2.pxm
So actually, I'm in the Mathilda aera and I try to figure a way to knockdown the Harpy with the down rune(should be
possible). I'll try to manipulate luck harder and from diffrent way and see what happen...
Beside that, I made a lua-script that allow to reading thought the movie with the Eternal SPU(or any sound plugin):
First, download this
collection of desynchless savestate (
mirror) and uncompress in the sstates folder(from pcsxrr folder).
If you have some doubt about my savestate package, you can also run this script, that is going to create all the savestate, but make sure that movie synch well, before.
After, you can uncheck the movie synch mode(or use a better sound plugin), then just download(save in the pcsxrr folder) and run this
script for watching the full wip without the sound issue(or almost). Yeah!!
Writting these script probably take less time, than encoding manually with the SPU plugin... so, I'll encode this, once I got more action in the run.
edit: note : Recently I've been wondering if there could be any glitch with the Chimera Rune, that pretty much transfer positive/negative status to someone else... I'll should look at this later.
