Frequently asked questions

Below is the questions I am asked. Please, e-mail me and I will return your answer on this page. I've had some problems returning an answer to some people. So this way is just better.


Q. I need help at one part. I just got to the mana tree, and can't figure where to go. I checked the whole area for switches, caves, ledges, and whip points, but there weren't any that I could find. Could you tell me how to get past that part?

A. First off, I'm not really sure unless I know where you are. Walk around some. Some pathways are hidden in the leaves and might not appear as routes. Other than that, the mana tree area is pretty strait forward.

Q. Where is or who do I have to kill to get the ninth sword orb to obtain the Mana Sword?

A. Check my secrets page. It's all on there, step by step.

Q. I really can not get the sword out! How exactly are you supposed to?

A. Try pressing A while standing in front of the sword. It should pull out. To get to the sword, after the Hero pauses and say the village is 'that way', go north and into the lake.

Q. How do I switch between characters?

A. Press select. Real easy.

Q. Where can I find the soundtrack for Secret of Mana?

A. The way I found it was by going into one of the search engines and looking for 'Secret of Mana soundtrack'. You can find almost any soundtrack by using the search engines.

Q. How do you defeat the Mana Beast if you're out of Fairy Walnuts? I used them all up on the Dark Lich and now I have no more magic power to cast the Mana Magic!

A. The trick is to use NO walnuts when fighting the Lich. If you do use them, limit it down to one faerie walnut.

Q. Where do you find embermen?

A. Embermen can be found in the Emperor's castle in Northtown, and in the palace of darkness in the Lofty Mountains.

Q. In the Upper Forest, in the summer season there is a lake in the way. How do I get from summer to Fall and so on?

A. You can get from summer to fall only by heading up the north-east path, nowhere else. You can go:

>From Winter - east to fall & South to Spring.

>From fall - south to Summer.

>From summer - east to cannon travel, north-west to the Moogle village & west to Spring.

>From Spring - north-east to Winter & west to the great forest.

Q. I have heard that this game is a two player game. Is it? If it is, could you please tell me how to activate the second player?

A. Just press start on the second controller. If you happen to look down at the Hero's Face on the bottom of the screen, you will see a '1' in the top right corner. This tells you that player '1' is the Hero. For player 1 to become the girl, press select. Now a '1' will appear next to her face. When player 2 has pressed start and is playing, his number will appear on the face of the player he has become.

Q. How do I raise my Weapon level to 8:99? My sword is the only one at 8:99, and the rest are left at less than that. Can you help me??

A. You need to equip two players with weapons at 8:99. In your case, only one of your weapons are at 8:99. You need to find the other orbs for the weapons, then raise them to 8:99. Once that's done, the two players must have the weapons with 8:99. The third player should have the weapon that needs to be raised. One player with the high level weapon should kill two or three enemies at once to get the counter going for the bad weapon.

Q. How can I get across the lava in the Underground Palace?

A. Use Undine's magic on the orb. Sprite should have freeze in his magic.

Q. Where is the Underground Palace?

A. In Gaia's Navel. Specifically, in Dwarf Village. Near where you fought the boss.

Q. I can't get the ninth sword orb. I tried it but I got back to the place where I saved at Neko's. What am I doing wrong? -Jon

A. Okay, try it again. That's all I can tell you. Read my secret again, maybe you missed something. Did you reset using R, L, start, select? Did you reset right after Elliot said his first line?
