Tales of Symphonia Walkthrough! (Cause I have nothing better to do)

[Dark_Mega1]

I'll start now!

Blah Blah Blah, narrator talks about stuff, then your in school and the teacher throws an eraser at you (...) and then they explain Desians and Chosen of Mana stuff, and Oracle comes and the Chosen, Collete, whos in your class has to go to the temple to start "The Journey of World Regeneration" (dont want to keep saying that, so JoWR now) So your teacher, Raine, goes to see if it is the Oracle, but Lloyd, the Protaganist (sp?), is curious, so he disobeys the teacher and goes to the temple with Collete, and his Best friend Genis, go to see whats up, but monsters attack!! (Bouncing Skull XD) You learn basics to fighting here. Then, you leave the village and head to the Martel Temple, to recieve the Oracle...

[Seth2014]

Lol sounds cool

[Wicked Dragonmaster]

XD maybe thats why i stopped playing the game.... rofl pretty much sums up the intro though.

[Dark_Mega1]

Now you have a set path up to the Martel Temple, so follow it and watch the scene, then walk up the stairs and :O Desians! Two foot soldiers attack you, own them, simple battle, then they bring about the Big guy! First Boss START!

BOSS: Vidarr: HP 4,000
Weakness: None
Resistance: None

He may be owning you, and he prolly is, but no worries, after a bit a scene will occur, and a strange man will run up and save you. He is everything you want right now, stong, and has healing magic, it will be easy now with him helping you, if you need to set Healing magic to your shortcuts (Go to the tech menu, and set his First Aid to C-up or C-down) You will win.

BOSS END!

The man will reveal himself as Kratos, a mercenary, and the four of you head into the temple to start The first Trial of The JoWR

[Seth2014]

Oh crap lol

[BladeWarrior]

Kratos ftw...

[Dark_Mega1]

The Priests that were supposed to protect Colette are all dead now...so we get to do it! And Kratos doesnt want Lloyd and Genis to come but Colette tells him they have to go so into the temple! Kratos gives you training manual inside, read it if you want, i never did. So go right down the hallway and down the stairs at the end, your be under the temple in some weird puzzle room, and you see the sorcerors ring on a pedestal off in the distance. Colette sees a golem, fight time! I dont really need to give a strategy here, just beat him. It turns into a block and Colette trips and pushes it into the holes on the area shaped just like the blocks...(And they think it was a bad thing...the holes must be theere for SOMETHING) Well they figure it out. Oh and get used to Colettes annoying clmsiness...it will never go away. So now kill 2 more golems and push them both down the top hole, the go down the stairs at the bottom and push the block thats not down foward, and you will make a path, go along and collect the Sorcerors ring. Basically, you push X and it makes a fireball that goes a few inches foward. So now head back to the entrance and up the center hallway, and use the Sorcerors ring on the door, causing it to open. Head forward and through the portal. So you're at the Seal room now, and a bright light comes and the angel, Remiel, comes down to give Colette her Cruxis Crystal, the crystal that Colette had in her hand when she was born, showing that she was the Chosen. So now The Tower of Salvation is open, which Colette must climb after releasing the seals in Sylvarant. Colette asks if Remial is her rue father, and he says yes. Here's where things get...odd. Colette and Kratos go back to town first, and the other two run nto Raine in the Temple entrance, they werent supposed to leave, so punishment time. Raine picks up Genis and begins spanking him (Their Bro and Sis...so its not completely weird.) And she looks at Lloyd and POW! She kicks him in the stomach sending him flying 4 feet back against a wall...well she runs off and he hear her going all crazy as you leave, but ignore it, and head back to the village.

[Wicked Dragonmaster]

LMAO i love lloyd getting pwned. Oh and you made a mistake, when remiel comes you're supposed to say "and down from the heavens descended chuck norris"

[Dark_Mega1]

Now head right one screen from the school and up into the house, it is Colettes house, a scene occurs and you get the Collectors Book. Lloyd and Genis want to go on the JoWR but Kratos says no, they'll just get in the way. Lloyd forgot to make Colettes present for her birthday, a necklace, so now we have to go to Lloyd's house, which is through the Iselia Forest. But first stop by Genis house, its to the left of the school. Here you get an explanation on cooking, listen if you want. Outside town its a monster-...wait, that thing is Lloyds pet!? Whatever, head to the Iselia Forest, its not too far. Well Loyds pet Noishe runs away when you enter the forest. Monsters here, dont worry about them, avoid them if possible cause you only have Lloyd and Genis here.

[Dark_Mega1]

Now head through the forest until you get up to the Desian Human Ranch. we go in like we were told not too a few minutes ago...save at the point here and head inside. You see prisoners pushing blocks inside, one stops to rest for a second and gets whipped. (Holocaust...hmph...) Run over to the left and a woman named Marble will come and talk to you, this is Genis's Friend that he came to see. Lloyd gives a lecture on Exspheres and Key Crests now. The Desians catch her talking and "slacking off" and take her beind a wall for her punishment, and Genis wants to see what happening. Head right behind the trees and climb up the cliff. Now they think of a plan, Genis hits the Desians with Fireballs and hides, and Lloyd, whos faster acts as the decoy, not letting anyone see hi face! Once he leads them away, Genis sneaks out. But the plan is ruined when Genis trips and the Desians hear him. Now Lloyd has to fight some Desians alone. They are REALLY easy, just dont give them the chance to attack. Lloyd jumps down the cliff, after taking out the ones that saw his face. Now The leader of the human Rance, Forcystus, comes out and tells them to analyze the data from the Ranchs surveillance system, looks like they are not so lucky after all....

[Dark_Mega1]

Follow the dirt path, this is the path to Lloyds house, there's some treasure on the other paths if you want to pick that up. Lloyd asks his dad, a dwarf (not his real dad) for a Key Crest to save Marble, he asks Lloyd why, and isnt too happy with the answer. You run outside the house after your dad tries to hit you, and look! Colette, Genis, Raine, and Kratos are all there! Colette wants to talk to you, if you say just a minute you can talk to the others first for some different scenes. Colette tells you they are leaving at noon tomorrow and Lloyd gets to go! So when you wake up...Genis comes and says they are already gone! She lied to you! So now you and Genis head over to the village. Head over to Colette's House again and talk to Phaedra. She gives Lloyd a letter about lying to Lloyd. ! The Desians have attacked the village! Head south to the house you saw burning, now you fight them. Just like before but you have Genis this time. Take out the Bowman first though, cause he will cancel Genis's spells. The Desians are looking for you for going to the ranch! Forcystus comes and brings in some big monster for you to fight!

BOSS: ???
HP: 5000

This boss is tough, you may find yourself dieing alot, use Life bottles if you die. Hit and run might help you if you do keep dieing, and Apple Gels you have much more of that Life Bottles, so make sure you dont die in the first place. After a bit you will win this battle, it might take a couple tries though.

BOSS END

The monster will attack Forcystus when you win...wait what!? You learn that MArbles Exsphere turned her into a monster, and she will self-destruct on Forcystus. They take him back to the ranch, but the villagrs arent so happy Lloyd went up to the ranch. Lloyd and Genis are exiled from Iselia, and Genis decides to use Marbles exsphere. The two of them now have no choice but to follow Colette and the others, so the journey now begins...

[Dark_Mega1]

If your interested in what the chars look like, here they are

http://ui14.gamefaqs.com/269/gfs_22524_3_2.jpg

Some you havent seen yet but still

[Wicked Dragonmaster]

whos by kratos/zelos? the blue haired one.

[Dark_Mega1]

Oh woops XD, fosgot him, he's camoflauged with the sky, thats Regalnever used him so i forget him =P

[Dark_Mega1]

Head South ot of the village and then partway a cutscene will occur and you'll learn about EX Skills, now keeping heading South and stop in the House of Salvation, you'll get a cutscene and learn about Long-Ranged Mode, save if you want, and continue south into the desert and keep going until you get into Triet. :O Desians are here, no fighting though, you just hide from them and they post up a Lloyd poster that looks nothing like him. now head down the left fork for a cutscene about Customization. Now talk to the little boy , he's the weapon shop, and buy Knight Saber, Flying Disk, and Fine Star. The other two are default weapon of Kratos and Raine, so dont bother with those. If you cant afford them all farm, buy the ones you can and sell their old weapons. (DONT grind for it, the enemies are too strong for just you 2) Now go to the Fortune Teller (Right Fork, tent at path end) (need 100 gald) and watch the scene, say the other three went to te Triet Ruins.

[Dark_Mega1]

When you go to exit, Genis says to check the wanted poster, so do that and watch the scene. Now go to the exit and Desians Attack! Beat the three up. Afterwards Desians hit Lloyd with a thunderball and drag him away to their base. They leave Genis though because they dont need him, they want Lloyd for his exsphere. Baaaaaaad idea, now Genis goes off to find a way to save Lloyd. Your be Lloyd in the cell, hit the guard outside with the Sorcerors Ring to escape. Open the cell to the left for a chest, and the next one for a save point, save here! Now go right and open the chest to get your equipment back. Warning, Lloyds alone here so fighting will be hard. Head to the lright more to get in a battle with 2 soldiers you have to fight. Now head up through the door.

Theres a device here that makes the sorcerors ring shhot thunder instead of fire. Now DONT FIGHT! the monsters here, hit them with the Sorcerors Ring when they are on the blue squares to open the door. Now head all they way left to the room with the GameCube in it and use the rectangular device to turn on the device in here. Okay now hit the bottom and top pillars, and head through the north door. A scene will occur and Lloyd will run into a room and run into a mysterious Blue Haired man, soon Botta will run in and say the Chosens group infiltarted the place. The Blue-Haired man leaves now, and Colette and the others arrive soon after. Genis, Colette, and Kratos join the party, and the battle begins!

BOSS: Botta, Foot Soldier x2
Botta HP: 4200
Foot Soldier HP: 823

Take out the Foot Soldiers first, they are easy, then go for Botta. He's pretty strong, but Kratos will be healing you so you shouldnt be dieing, all together, he's pretty easy. Watch out for Rock Breaker!!! This is your biggest and only threat, you want to gurd it for sure. He may go into Overlimit (A form where you get more strength, defense, and you dont get stunned by attacks) if he does, just avoid him till he gets out of it.

BOSS END

Raine gets an Exspehere off of the weapon Botta drops when he leaves, but theres no key crest, luckily Raine has one on her, but it's broken, so Lloyd fixes it during the night at the Inn, once its fixed go give it to Raine, and you see Kratos going outside, follow him out and watch the scene. Afterwards it'll be morning, go out and save your game

[Dark_Mega1]

Sheena saves party (???) And then joins your party, go to Hima and Pietro tells you how to get in Asgard Ranch, so go back. Split into groups, and own Kvar.
