A Must Have [Posted on 2005-12-30]
Though the game Romancing Saga isn't the best made and can be confusing and frustrating at times, this guide is a must have if you really want the game. It provides everything you need to get from the beginning to the end in the easiest possible way, and is clearly categorized for ease.

Firstly, it describes how to start each quest in the game, as well as finishing those quests as successfully as possible. It has maps of every dungeon or city and the required proficiencies needed to get the most out of these areas. It tells you where to recruit the best characters, and how they will progress during your travels. The appendixes are also great, especially the tempering section, showing how to make the better weapons.

Pros and Cons:
+ Detailed character listings
+ How to start and finish each quest, plus the rewards given
+ A weapons, armor, and item section
+ A map section that not only tells where all the secrets are, but also what the shops in each city carry
+ A section for the class system
+ A small bestiary
- The maps could be included on the page of the quest
- Another strategy guide introduction, basically what can be found in the book provided with the game
- Doesn't separate the quests very well, just numbers #, and since the game is non-linear, the # of each quest never follows the order you'll follow

If you have this game and want to enjoy it, pick this guide up. It will help you get to where you need to be the fastest without having to go through all the extra garbage in Romancing Saga.

Definitely Helps! [Posted on 2006-01-15]
This guide can be a pain but believe me it helps in this game it keeps you focused when you might be ready to throw in the towel because you don't know what to do, where to go, or who to see.

Review [Posted on 2006-03-01]
Has everything that you'd expect from a walkthrough, although the guide isnt layed out in the easiest way to follow. Weapons and items are listed, but when to utilize them without wasting the resource isn't. All and all, the strategy guide will cover all the main elements ... but the player will have to play through again to know how to best utilize everything.

A helpful guide [Posted on 2006-03-15]
This guide reveals a lot of information that I've had trouble trying to find on the net, and also it has a more detailed organization than the average online FAQ.

Romancing SaGa is a very deep game, and developing a party efficiently and getting the most out of the game almost demands the aid of a guide. Tempering weapons, learning the official order of the event quest ranking, and developing job classes are all explained in this useful guide.

This guide gives a bio of each character including starting stats, a run through of each quest and who can or cannot take it, maps, items list, and bestiary. Romancing Saga is a game that is not linear, however, some quests must be completed in a certain order or with certain people in your party. The guide is very helpful, outlining all the possible quests.
