Don’t think this is gonna be a 100% Gold Remake, it’ll have its differences. Extra battles (some’ll be optionals, tough but rewarding), Hoenn Pokemon (in every area, and hard to find) New areas, Remapped some dungeons (so your old guides wont work) , Extra recurring characters (some’ll hate you, some’ll help you)
Note that the hack is incomplete but feel free to enjoy the hack as-is.
****************************************************** * * * First of all I want to thank the following people: * * * ****************************************************** relnqshd for making all the stuff he did including his great tutorials and of course all his patches which were a great inspiration.

There are some modified battles which are the Master and the Egg Dragon battle as well as the last battles against the Sinistrals and some late game bosses. Besides, non-boss Ghost Ships will summon Krakens, Night Lizards and Deathbringers, whereas Dark Summoners will summon King Hydras, High Hydras and Lucifers. (And Dark Summoners now are immune to instant death.) Also, in the newest version Iris Treasures will appear more frequently, in the Gratze Basement one of the prisoners always gives you a Revive in case you lack one and in the Gift Mode (which is available from start) you can buy blue chest items. Quite notable, Artea and Lexis now can equip Miracle Plates/Mails so that everyone has the potential to get an armor in the Ancient Cave right from the start. Also quite notable, Silver and Gold Dragons now drop Dekar and Myth Blades (~10%). However, the AGL of the Metal Dragons is increased by factor 1.5 now. Besides, Orochis drop Taplowses now (~25%). As well as Blue Dragons now have Magic Fruits as a rare drop (~0.25%) whereas some bosses have higher drop rates as well as Web Spiders drop Ear Picks (~25%). And No Cores now can drop Engage Rings (~7.5%) as well as the elder of Narvick now sells Sea Rings after the last maiden has joined the party. And the stuff from Chaed's weapon shop is no longer missable as you can buy it in Gruberik now. However, some words about the battles: 1) The Master The Master has now a new additional move which makes the battle a little bit harder as he can now heal himself completely every round. And suicide isn't an option anymore. Therefore, the only way is to bring him down in one single round. Or is there maybe another way as well...? Name: HP: MP: ATP: DFP: AGL: INT: GUT: MGR: DROP: Master 10000 infinite 10 1 510 510 510 2 --- 2) The Sinistrals The Sinistrals are also a little bit more difficult. However, they are nothing a good level 50-party or even a level 40-party can't handle. Name: HP: MP: ATP: DFP: AGL: INT: GUT: MGR: DROP: Gades 30000 0 1000 1000 510 510 510 510 --- Amon 30000 10000 1000 1000 510 510 510 510 --- Erim 45000 10000 1250 1000 510 510 510 510 --- Daos 50000 10000 1500 1000 510 510 510 510 --- There's also a surprise battle during the course of the game. And Erim and Daos might have some surprises for higher leveled ones as well. 3) The Egg Dragon He's the name giver of this patch as he now - like Spekkio from Chrono Trigger - changes his behaviour depending on the highest level of a party member. There are 8 different versions you can fight: - level 01-39: basically the original fight - level 40-49: Scrambled Egg's attack power can't be lowered anymore + higher confusion rate - level 50-59: now he has two turns per round + more spells + Cinder Blast - level 60-69: can silence you and has single-targeted spells - level 70-79: has Diamond Dust and Scrambled Egg drains MP as well - level 80-89: now he has 3 turns per round + the Dread spell - level 90-98: has Stardust Blow + ATP & DFP lowering attacks - level 99: ???????? Name: HP: MP: ATP: DFP: AGL: INT: GUT: MGR: DROP: Egg Dragon 65535 infinite 1500 2000 510 510 510 510 Myth Blade 4) La Puella La Puella, the beloved pet of the Princess of Parcelyte, Cefia, is a new enemy unique to Spekkio Lufia. You can fight her whenever you want after beating Gades in the Ancient Tower. Just go to the throne room of Parcelyte Castle and talk to her. Do you stand a chance against La Puella and everything which joins the battle? Name: HP: MP: ATP: DFP: AGL: INT: GUT: MGR: DROP: La Puella 30000 10000 1000 1000 320 510 510 510 Spider Jewel Pet Dragon 7500 5000 1000 1000 320 510 510 510 Engage Ring Lady Spider 5000 0 1000 1000 510 510 510 510 Jute/Warding Helm Queen Spider 5000 0 1000 1000 510 510 510 510 Power/Spirit Brace Maybe the Spiderweb IP move might be helpful against some of them.
