It sure took a while, but I finally found the way to get S rank in the race against Cedric: When you attack him, make sure that he got the minimum possible HP left.KFCrispy wrote:how many battles are there in Merceto? i've had a battle vs the merchant and one for recruiting Cedric, still no luck with S
This is not the only battle not using the standard formula for S rank. Rita's mini-game has a completely different requirement as well.
EDIT:
To get a Platinum in Chiepoo's Quest (D rank: Give Us A Sign), you need to finish the Giant Crab in one turn.
It's not recommended if you are aiming for the S rank prize here though.

Re: S rank and bonus prizes
You can only get the S rank prizes Once.
You cannot get another one if you play New Game +.

Re: [Guide] S Rank and Bonus Prizes
Yes they carry over.
Maybe i should rephrase what I wrote more than a year ago.
You only get the one-time S rank rewards from the location.
If you didn't get it for a particular battle/location, you can get it again in New game+ if you can't go back to the location again.
But if you already got the S rank reward from the location, you get nothing if you get another S rank again in New Game+ or another battle at the same location.

Re: [Guide] S Rank and Bonus Prizes
i was looking at the Japanese official guide i got while i was in Japan... I think the Underground Passage bonus item is for finishing the stage in less than a certain number of turns. at some point i will be compiling information and scanning other things so others can translate it.

Re: [Guide] S Rank and Bonus Prizes
just realized the number of times you fight in Graska Palace and Graska City are not listed. Is it 2 for the Palace, 1 for Graska City?

Re: [Guide] S Rank and Bonus Prizes
How come there is 2 in the Graska Palace? I check the walkthrough by Cyril and it only mention one mission in Graska Palace. Because I want to get the Crimson Cape but I can't do it because I want to get Ranks S in my first playthrough.KFCrispy wrote: Graska Palace [2]:
Imperial Ring (STR/SKL/MAG/EVA/PDF/MDF/SPD/LUC+5)
Bonus: Crimson Cape (requirements are not clear, see http://suikosource.com/phpBB3/viewtopic ... 40&t=12614 - defeat over 50 enemies or specific enemies?)

Re: [Guide] S Rank and Bonus Prizes
(no need to quote an ENTIRE post if you're just referring to 1 thing)
i guess it's only 1--i was trying to get confirmation just earlier because before we didn't have the number listed at all, thanks for testing though!

Re: [Guide] S Rank and Bonus Prizes
Ok. I test the Rita Challenge when you will beat her by 1 tile. In my playthrough in the last round when Rita cast her bead the numbers of tiles was 43 which is mine and her was 42 (elementals included) and after that I got a turn again so I do is add another fire terrain and I won and got Star Earring.
EDIT: Tested in Underground Passage it's less than 85 turns including the enemies turn. Best to do in New Game+ since you can 1 hit the enemies and reduce the turn count.

Re: [Guide] S Rank and Bonus Prizes
Juan, I didn't understand what you did in Rita's Challenge. so you won by 1 tile or did you actually add more and get the item?
Thanks!!
Thanks!!
