I remember rolling an all blackbelt party with maybe one white wizard for healing and to wield the masmune in the endgame. I used to play this game so much. I still have the old guide I got for it from Nintendo power. I had the guide probably several months before I even bought the game. I had poured over that thing so much and I still struggled with the game early on. It wasn't until later I discovered that peninsula in the lower continent where you could fight mobs from the upper continent and power level yourself in no time. I would sit and reset if I died and just use houses over and over to heal.
