Using the lottery trick method on the treasure bosses...
You know how you're not supposed to check the board before you save in order to do the lottery trick, right? Well, if you want to apply it to the treasure boss, when do I save?
Do I save BEFORE beating it? Or can I save AFTER beating it? Thanks.

before you fight it. tried after fighting it, the item remains the same. i guess it defends on how you did with the boss battle. the criticals, turn used, character who deliver the final blow. or it is just really random.

Kranach is that true?? I'm at the Flame Champion's Hideout with Hugo in Chapter 3 right now, and I want to get a Fire Magic Ring. (I've already got one with Geddoe, and will get one more with Chris after this chapter.) However, I keep getting like the same items!
... Well not exactly the same, of course, but it seems that the changes are minor... It's as if the only thing different are the runes and stones...
If what you say is true, KFC, I should wait a while longer for it to change??
Thanks for the replies.

cause i keep on coming back after 30 mins. so I guess what kfc said is true. cause the first one i really the best set. but i was able to get three double-strike from the blue mantik with the three main characters. and i was lucky enough to get 4 fury in hugo chapter 3 in less than an hour... one in fifteen loads will give you one good item. and i never got a fire magic ring again. i only got one stone of power and the rest are stone evasion. but the time difference between hugo and chris were ten hours but i still can't get a fire magic ring. and i noticed that if a character loots a corpse it will not appear in the next hero's chapter for four hours. example pick it in geddoe chapter 2, if you continue to play geddoe chapter 3 the treausures will go back. but if you go in chris or hugo chapter 1, 2 or 3 it won't appear in approximately 4 hours.

Re: Using the lottery trick method on the treasure bosses...
@CelesDestiny: Sorry, I was mistaken; I do get the same stat stone every time.
However, I've been trying this forever now, but I still can't get a Fire Magic Ring with Hugo... (I got my first one with Geddoe.) Also, I do seem to generally be getting the same kinds of items... like the items will vary of course with each kill, but there seems to be a set of items for each that I will get. (For example, I will always get some type of helm piece, chest piece, 3 medicines, a robe piece. But from that helm piece, I might sometimes get an Old Helm and other times a Feather Hat, stuff like that.) I don't know if I should just give up.

Re: Using the lottery trick method on the treasure bosses...
i don't know if i should have stayed longer in chapter 3 cause now i have 3 water rings. ang comparing the damage by an s class to an a class. there is a lot of difference.

Re: Using the lottery trick method on the treasure bosses...
i guess you just have some bad luck with the Fire Magic Rings. i had some bad experience sometimes as well; i would waste away some hours reloading for the Fire Magic Ring (even though i already had a good amount).. but it's completely random especially when you use the reload trick. the items seem to get worse in general if you soft-reset and reload for the same boss, but you will still get that chance of landing the Fire Magic Ring.
the Blue Mantik also randomly drops Earth Magic Rings. i've had the most trouble getting more of this item.

Re: Using the lottery trick method on the treasure bosses...
i seem to be getting the same Stone of Evasion in my save-reload. i think it might be a good idea to take the item and come back later if this is happening..

Re: Using the lottery trick method on the treasure bosses...
So the verdict is that this trick will work if you save before the boss correct?
I had more questions related to this topic so here goes: I'm in chapter five, and I'm constantly re-fighting treasure bosses, but all I get are crappy items (best I've got so far is premier armor), are items in the chest completely (or to some extent) random?
I'd like to get my hands on a few magic rings and possibly a gale rune even though I read on the forums that most magic rings stop spawning during chapter 3 and that the gale rune is extra rare and obtainable only in Northern Cave (vs. Ghost Knight). What about that Taikyoku Tunic in Mt. Hei-Tou any chapter restriction on it?
Any advice from the pros here?

Re: Using the lottery trick method on the treasure bosses...
I dunno if this true or not, but most of the good items in the treasure are completely random. And the first time you open them (1st time beat the treasure boss) you'll always get the better items 'cause the chances are much higher for you to get them.Lezales wrote:So the verdict is that this trick will work if you save before the boss correct?

For me, if I'm not satisfied with the tresure items that i got, i just reset the game and beat the boss again. Save before doing that is a must.
