WWW area:
Successfully complete the game to unlock the WWW area. Go to Ula Internet area 4 and look for a glowing red warp. Enter it to access the WWW area. Note: You cannot exit once you enter, so saving the game is recommended.
Information in this section was contributed by Sean O'Donnell.

To enter the WWW Area behind the mysterious gate in Undernet 4, you do not not need a Star ID or a SS license or higher. All you need is to have done is to fight 130 different viruses. Note: You do not need to actually defeat the viruses, you only have to see them. After that you can run, if desired.

In-game reset:
Press Start + Select + A + B during game play. This can be put to good use when you are in Undernet 5 and are trying to get the 50,000 Zenny. Stand next to the ruby, and if it is not the Zenny, use the in-game rest until you get it.

Hint: Gamecube logo:
After defeating Shadowman, reenter the main mother computer. Go to the back of the computer. Stand in front of the "mother computer main server", where Shadowman was standing before you fought him. Slowly go to Megaman's right. Upon a stack of cubes with purple, squiggly lines on them will be the Gamecube logo.

Hint: Battle Bass:
After defeating Planetman, you can fight the real Bass. He has 2000 HP and a Life Aura 1 that will reappear. When you defeat him, you will get his Bass chip.

Hint: Battle Pharaohman:
After completing the game, go to the WWW area from the Undernet. Unlock the security cubes with a S license lock and you will get to Pharaohman. This battle is similar to the fight with Thunderman. He has two coffins that will do most of the attacking for him, but he does not attack very often. When he does, he will put a switch on the battlefield that activates a trap. For this battle, chips like Stepsword and Cannonball work very well, but the coffins act like shields and can block chips such as Cannon very easily. Pharaohman has 1200 hp.

Hint: Defeating Bass:
If you are fighting BassDelux and you have his chip, you can lower his HP a lot. You need two Navi +40s, and at least one Attack+20. You can also use Attack+30. If you do not have two Navi+40s, you can use something else. If you have Bass v1, and everything else (without Attack+30), this will do 160 damage per hit. Bass v2 does 170 and Bass v3 does 180. Also, if you have a GoldFist and know the command for it, it will get rid of his LifeAura, and perhaps hurt him. If you have Anti-Fire/Watr/Swrd/Recvr, do not use them. What looks like a fire technique is not. He also does not use water or a sword of any type.

An easy way to defeat the Treble form of Bass, the final Boss, is to put Geddon 3 and Repair Panel(*) in your Chip Folder. When you enter the battle, use Geddon 3, then Repair Panel. Treble will take damage over time because of the swamp, while your side is normal. Just sit back and heal yourself as he slowly dies.

Hint: Defeating Gateman:
If you have the style Fireguts, charge your attack by holding A then release it. Even if he has used Remo Gate, the flames will pass right through, and if aimed correctly, will hit him regardless. The flames also destroy his soldiers easily.
Information in this section was contributed by Pro. Gamer.

Hint: Defeating Gospel:
Use a Wood style (Wood Guts and Wood Shield recommended). Use your charge attack when he opens his mouth, and four to five Gateman v3 chips. When he starts sucking, hold Back.
Information in this section was contributed by Charles Brown.

Make sure you have FireBlade R, AquaBlade R, and ElecBlade R. Use them (in that order) to do LifeSword 3. When Gospel has 600 or less, use it to finish it off and avoid experiencing his most deadly move (when his health is 499 or less).
Information in this section was contributed by John Stockey.

Hint: Defeating Gutsman:
During your battle with him, move Mega Man to one of the front squares. When you do this, Gutsman will approach to punch you. Dodge the punch by moving sideways, then immediately move back to the original location and hit him with a chip. He will now move to a different square, then return to hit you again. When this happens, do the same thing again. When you run out of chips, charge your Megabuster and hit him with it. Note: This strategy will only work with a Guts-style Mega Man.
Information in this section was contributed by sean fish.

Have the Woodguts style (preferably v3). When fighting Gutsman, stand on one of the front three tiles while charging your Buster. When he comes up to punch you, take one step back and fire your Buster. Gutsman will be hit with a strong tornado and will be stunned. While he is stunned, hit him with a strong chip, such as a sword or PA.
Information in this section was contributed by David Vinther.

Hint: Defeating Protoman:
Before you fight Protoman, make sure that all your FireSwrds, ElecSwrds, and AquaSwrds are in your folder. When the battle starts, always stay in the middle panels. When Protoman comes up close to slash you, slide to the back panels then move back to the middle and hit him with a sword of any kind. The previously listed swords are recommended. Repeat this until you win.

Hint: Defeating Snakeman:
After you get Quickman2, stay in that area. Defeat Quickman3 and get lots of his chips. Put them in your folder, then go to Mrs. Millions and challenge Snakeman. When he tries to bite you, use Quickman1, 2 or 3. You will do major damage because the boomerang hits him so much.
Information in this section was contributed by gameboywhizk.

If you have Blowers and Fire +40, use the following trick to kill him quickly. Set Area Grab as your regular. Afterwards, when he is about to use his Fast Fire attack, use Blower with two Fire +40 (for an instant kill). By doing this, you will have a good "S" rank with him. However, be careful of snakes. If they hit you, your attack will be interrupted. Any style will work for this.
Information in this section was contributed by Nuno Miguel Brito Fontes.

Hint: Defeating Toadman:
To defeat him easily have Anti-Elec and Guardian. Use Anti-Elec while he is not using his Melody attack. The next time he uses it, he will take 400 damage. After that use Guardian in the top or bottom row. When the Guardian is hit he will take 400 more damage. He now has 100 HP and can be taken with any chip. Any style will work for this.
Information in this section was contributed by Nuno Miguel Brito Fontes.

Hint: Defeating Toadman v3:
Use P.A. 2X Hero, which does 70 per hit. However if you use Attack +30, every shot will do 100 damage to Toadman. He has 900 HP, so he will only have 100 HP remaining. Then, use any kind of chip that damages 100.
Information in this section was contributed by Vjdarkfox.

Hint: Defeating Thunderman:
When it comes time to get on the net and find your stolen Battlechips, you must netbattle Thunderman. To defeat him easily, put a Fan in your folder as a default chip; or make sure it comes up soon in the battle. When you use it, Thunderman will be pulled up front. When the Fan gets destroyed, he cannot move forwards or backwards. Use swords, dashattacks, quakes, and anything lethal while he either tries to hit you with lightning or uses his clouds to shoot electricity at you. When you attack and make a hit, his attack will immediately stop. While he is off guard, use your gun or any other chips to inflict more damage. However, be careful of the three clouds sliding back and forth. If you are not on guard and quick to move sideways, these clouds could cost you a victory as they are formidable in battle.

Hint: Defeating the V3 Navis:
You can defeat at least three of the V3 Navis with an easy S rating using this method. On most of the folders you build to defeat V3 Navis, do not rely on Recovery Chips. They waste time, which is a very important factor in getting an S rating. Use FireGuts because it gives you a free quick charging 100 damage no matter if you have a chip on hand or not. First, build a wood type folder with many TreeBom1-2-3s and other high damaging chips. Go to MarineHbr and challenge Toadman to a battle by talking to the reporter beside the van. Beat him mercilessly until you have at least five V3 Toadman chips. Second, build an electric type folder and use all your Toadman V3 chips and perhaps some Satelite3 or Magbomb2-3. Buy a lot of LocEnemies from the subchip man in the Netbattler building. Go all the way to Undernet 7 and get Freezeeman V3 to appear, if you have not fought V2, walk over to the left side of the area and down and he should appear. Then, V3 will appear randomly. After you run into his V3 self the first time, save and use a LocEnemy so you can load the save file until it finally runs into him. He is a water type and is stupidly standing on an all ice fight area. Throw any electric things you have at him and get five V3 chips from him. The Toadman V3 chips do 720 damage to him in one shot, since he is taking four times the damage from electric type chips. Finally, build a water type folder and this time use all your Freezeman V3 chips you just collected. Goto the airport and fight Heatman, who is the character with red hair in the final departure room of the airport. He is easy with your Freezeman V3 chips, they are a bit random but most definitely one of the most powerful chips when you combine them with +Attack or +Navi chips. There are a total of about eight or nine attacks and the + chip will add to each one of those attacks.
Information in this section was contributed by Codeguru.

To get past second gate in WWW area (which means grabbing all V3 Navi chips except WWW Navis), grab five Gateman V2 or V3 (preferable) chips, five Gateman chips and three other good Navi chips if you have a team style; five of each Attack+ chips and five of each Navi+ chips. For whatever is left or what you cannot find or have, add all the rest of your powerful, accurate, chips and perhaps a P.A. or two. When fighting annoying V3 Navis, get aligned with them and use a powered up Gateman chip. This way, the maximum HP you could knock off them in one Gateman V3 chip is 800. You can also try this with Bass chips.

Hint: Defeating Navis with "S" ranking:
The following is the easiest ways to obtain an "S" rank for each Navi (and how to get each chip from them). Note: Each fight must be won within 30 seconds to get an "S" rank and their V3 chip. Defeat them between 31 seconds to 40 seconds to get their V2 chip. Nothing can affect your ranking unless you go past 30 seconds. You must be fighting their V3 forms for this to work. Also, do not use Recovery chips as loss of HP never affects your ranking. The Miramasa chip is useful in all the fights.
Information in this section was contributed by Chris Topher.

Gutsman: Have either level 3 Woodguts style or Fireguts style. Just attack him with your charged shot. Note: Have "Area Grab" set as standard chip for Woodguts. Have the Toad Man V3 chip in your folder to use when he uses a recover chip when he drops under 300 HP.

Airman: Use the level 3 Fireguts style and pound him with the charged shot.

Cutman: Use either level 3 Fireguts style or Woodguts style, and hit him with the charged shot. Have "Fastguage" set as standard chip to give you six times to select chips instead of three.

Toadman: Have "Iceline" or "Icestage" as standard chip, or try to get it on the first time you are able to select chips. Have both Toadman V1 and V2 chips in your folder and use them after you set the Iceline/Icestage chips on the field. Note: Set the Iceline on one of the areas that Toadman's usually rides his leaf on. This will do four times the damage because he is already a water type. The V1 chip will do 400 damage and the V2 chip will do 560 damage.

Protoman: Can only be defeated as quickly as possible if you have the "Fastguage" chip set as regular chip (must be used at start of battle and can be used with any other chip in combination with this one), and the Fireguts style (only style that does all damage in one hit that he cannot possibly shield or evade. Also have Toad Man chips to use in conjunction with your charged shot to do massive amounts of damage before using any P.A.s. Recommended P.A.s are the Life Sword1,2, and 3. Other than that, have a lot of Sword chips in your folder to counter his long sword attack. The Guardian chip is very useful, as it can protect you from his wide shot attack, dealing damage in the process and stopping him from doing it.

Knightman: Do the same as done with Protoman, except with all the sword chips in the folder and the Guardian chip. He will never really hit it unless you put it directly in front of him. Do not use chips on him until he turns normal, and not when he is the stone color. Recommended P.A.s are Zball, Lifesword 1, 2, and 3.

Magnetman: He stays in the back row most of the time. To defeat him, have the level 3 Woodguts style and the "Area Grab" set as regular chip. Use that in the beginning and just attack him with your charged shot. Damage will be doubled to 320 per charged shot.

Heatman: Level 3 Watershield or Waterguts is mandatory. Put five "Geddon 2" chips into your folder and set one of them as standard chip. When the battle starts, get some distance between you and him, but be in the same row. The best way to do this is to have him use his attack, then get in the same row he is currently on while using it. Using this chip will deprive him of movement and stop him from attacking you until his HP drops below half. When all of the holes appear again, use another Geddon chip using the same method. Just attack him with your charged shot (deals 100 damage every 1.5 seconds).

Quickman: Have level 3 Heatguts style, and a "Fastguage" chip set as regular chip, P.A.s will not be needed unless you feel they are necessary. Chips such as Toad Man V1, 2, and 3 will help deal two strong hits of damage. Use the chip first, then use charged shot. Have any other fast and hard hitting chip or chips in your folder.

Shadowman: Have level 3 Heatguts or Heatshield with the "Fastguage" chip set as regular chip. Needed P.A.s are Lifesword 1 and 3. Tthis is not really a P.A. but will do serious damage. Combine the Gaia Chip, Salamander chip, Bolt chip, and Fountain chip in that order to have a a Longsword attack doing around 600 to 800 damage to the enemy in one hit. Hit him with your charged shot and wait until you can use the Lifesword 3 combination of Gaia, Salamander, Bolt, and Fountain.

Freezeman: Put each Toad Man chip in your folder and hope for at least two of them to appear. Then, use them both on him to defeat him quickly.

Thunder Man: Can be defeated the same way as Magnetman.

Snakeman: Can be a hassle because he hides in his jar a lot. Have level 3 Heatguts style and as many Meteor15 chips as possible in your folder. Use the chip on the middle bottom row and stand in front of it so the snake will not destroy it. Wait until it goes away to plant another one. The average damage is about 800 when you use all of the Meteor15 chips. When he uses his Machine Gun and Snake Bite, attack hit him with the charged attack.

Gateman: Have level 3 Heatguts style and pound him with the charged shot when he tries to use his Gatemen or power shot. The charged shot also goes through the "gate" that he puts out when he gets weak.

Hint: Blocking Fishys:
Whenever you fight a Fishy (V1 V2 or V3), use a chip that sets up an obstacle (Remobit, Guardian, etc.) and put it in front of you. The Fishys cannot go through these obstacles. This is useful for buying time to get chips or P.A. in the exams.

Hint: Shadow Wide Sword:
If you have any type of Shadow Chip and already upgraded the charge in your Mega Man profile, equip the Shadow Chip during battle and charge your Blaster while you are in shadow mode. When the charge is ready, release A and you will immediately transport to the enemy panels. The closest enemy to you will be hit with the Shadow Wide Sword, as well as anyone else in a vertical angle. The damage is the same from your Blaster when charged.
Information in this section was contributed by Andres Healy.

Hint: Heavy-Stamp advance (HvyStamp):
Put these in order: Quake1 (W/Q), Quake2 (W/Q), and Quake3 (W/Q). You will end up with a massive 800 points of damage on one enemy. This is very useful when trying to S-Rank annoying Navis and you want to deal some quick serious damage. This can be used from anywhere. It will always land on an enemy.
Information in this section was contributed by Jonners.

Hint: Third folder:
Defeat Shadowman and Freezeman. Then, go to the Mother Computer area. Go to the second mini-computer (the first one you jack into). There will be a girl there that wants a Bigbomb Star. Give one to her and she will give you a Program Advance Folder. Note: It does not contain every Chip for every Program Advance.

Hint: Best Chip Trader:
The best Chip Trader is the one in the ACDC Town Metroline.

Hint: Black Navi locations:
Information in this section was contributed by Pro-Gamer.

Black Navi 1: Underkoto
Black Navi 2: Undernet area 6
Black Navi 3: Netarea 2
Black Navi 4: Yumland area 2

Hint: Airman Version 3:
You can find Airman Version 3 in Den Area 1. He deals around 100 damage for each attack but you can get 500 Zenny if you have a low rankFor about a Busting Lv. 6, you can get another Airman Chip.
Information in this section was contributed by Mark Hohmann.

Hint: Extra Damage from Airman Chip:
Go to the front and if an enemy is in the front rank also, use the Airman chip to do double the damage.
Information in this section was contributed by Mark Hohmann.

Hint: Geddon3 chip:
After you defeat Shadow Man, go to MarinHarbor. From the center building, go down the flight of stairs and look closely at the screen. You should see a blur every few seconds. Walk up and talk to it. A little girl will say, "You found it! You take it". You will receive the Geddon3 chip.
Information in this section was contributed by CommanderPommy.

After acquiring the Geddon3 chip, put it in your folder with a Repair Chip (preferably a * code chip). Being that it makes all panels, swap panels (which constantly takes your health away). Use the Repair to fix your panels, leaving your opponents to suffer. Note: Have Repair out when you take out Geddon 3.

Hint: 2xHero Chip Advance:
You must have these chips in this order during a battle for the 2xHero Chip upgrade: Custswrd B, Varswrd B, Protoman B. Note: You must have the same code and have to be in the order shown.
Information in this section was contributed by HeatgutsMegaman.

The Curse Advance does quite a lot of damage. You must have CurseShield1, 2, and 3; Code: P, A, or O for all of them. To use any of the CurseShields, you must get hit, then the thing dashes out and bites. The Curse Advance dashes down all three lines, biting.
Information in this section was contributed by tjrobins.

Hint: Darkness Advance:
In order to get the strongest attack in the game, you must have these chips in this order: Bass v3 X, AntiNavi X, Fire/Aqua/Elec/Wood Gspl X. Note: It will not work with another Bass because their chip code is F.
Information in this section was contributed by alex bogles.

Hint: Gater Advance:

Hint: Secret chips (251 to 260):
To get the ten secret chips, you must have two Gameboy Advances, two Mega Man Battle Network 2 games, and a link cable. Both games must have at least three stars next to their name. If you have four stars, the odds will be higher. Link up the games and go into Network. Save the game when prompted, then choose Netbattle (not Practice Battle). Battle the other person and get an S rank on them. This is done easier if one player allows the other to kill them. You will get a secret chip approximately every twenty battles. The secret chip you get will be random .

Information in this section was contributed by Horacio Haro.

Hint: Recommended chips:
The following chips are highly recommended; find them whenever possible.
Information in this section was contributed by UTAIN-EVANS.FAMILY.

StepSword (from the chip trader special in MarineHarbor)

MagBomb3 (from Magneakers in WWW Area3)

Attack+20 (include as many as possible of these if you use chips that deal damage multiple times, such the Yo-Yo chips. They are found in various places)

PopUp (gotten from Moles in UnderNet6)

Hint: Best regular chip:
The chip FstGauge *, which can be bought from the merchant in UnderKoto, is the best choice for a regular chip. It doubles the speed of your CustomGauge, allowing you to utilize your chips faster. Since its code is *, you can still use other chips on the first turn.
Information in this section was contributed by UTAIN-EVANS.FAMILY.

Hint: Guard breaking chips:
The following are chips that can break through Guard: Magnetman and ZeusHamr.
Information in this section was contributed by Christopher Bracikowski.

Hint: Hidden power-ups:
In the Mother Computer, there is a power-up next to her brain and to the right.
Information in this section was contributed by djipson1.

Go to the Mother Computer room after you defeat ShadowMan. Find the first server (the one you cannot jack into). Walk up to it near the right side and press A. A program will talk to you and give you a power-up.
Information in this section was contributed by ChaosZero5.

There is a hidden HPMemory that can be found by going to the apartment. Go to floor 9. Go to the left door. There is an HPMemory on top of the door.
Information in this section was contributed by MegaMan111290.

Hint: Strong Gateman:
When you are in battle, select any Gateman chip and use Attack +40. If you have Gateman V3, he will cause 200 extra damage because every warrior he shoots out is powered up with the equip. Every warrior normally has 40 attack, but will now have 80.
Information in this section was contributed by Zandl.

The Gateman advance "Gater", when coupled with a few attack+40s can deal well over 1200 damage to all opponents on the field. The advance in this order: Wind G (or*), Fan G, Gateman v1,2,or 3.
Information in this section was contributed by derrick m.

Hint: Using Lavadragan, Godstone, and Oldwood:
To use them, stand behind any square that you cannot step on. Then use it so that the ball or light goes into the hole. It will freeze time and attack.
Information in this section was contributed by HJSaldua1.

Note: OldWood is stronger if on a Grass stage. If you are on a Grass stage and there is a hole (for Oldwood to be summoned), it will give out 440 damage.
Information in this section was contributed by Neo___Zero.

Hint: Using Slasher:
Hold A and if an enemy comes in front of you, they will get hit.
Information in this section was contributed by HJSaldua1.

Hint: Double damage from Magnet Man chip:
If you want to score an extra hit when using a Magnet Man chip, move next to your target on its row. Use the chip, and two Magnetmen (red and blue) should appear on either edge of the screen. They will do their flying shoulder ram and do double damage to the target virus.
Information in this section was contributed by KB5184.

Hint: Removing panels:
When you get into a battle and there are panels that move you up and down, wait until the chip selector appears. If Repair is in your deck, use it and it will take away the panels that move you up and down.
Information in this section was contributed by Azzouzi 93.

Hint: Transparent Mega Man:
Go to a panel in Kotobuki, Yumland, or Undernet and slide on the arrow panels. Walk back into the panels. Note: It should not t let you through. This will make two Mega Man bodies appear; if not, just two faces.
Information in this section was contributed by HeatgutsMegaman.

Hint: A license: Bad Navi locations:
The first Navi is in the abandoned toy by the dome thing in the park. The second Navi is in the chalk board in the park. The last Navi is in DEX's linked up Game Boys in his house. Note: They are all purple Navis.
Information in this section was contributed by Shadow Master107159.

Hint: SS license:
After you get the S license, "Delete Gospel", and "Star ID", go through the Undernet to where the laser grid with the "?" on it was located. Check it and it will open. The portal will then take you directly to the WWW area 1. Go through with your S license in hand, but be careful. Once you are inside the WWW you cannot jack out. Once through, you will see many new enemies and some are very difficult to kill. Just run from or kill them and use Full-Enrgs. Go as far as you can through WWW in area 1. Do not go into area 2, no matter what. You will find a cube requiring an S license to open. There are still more obstacles, Before going through the portal there, you will encounter three Protecto1s. To delete these you will have to do 200 damage to all of them at once. Once they are gone, go through the portal and unlock the "Mystery Data". It is army data. Jack out at this point and save the game. Jack back in again and go to the License Examiner. You can now take the test.
Information in this section was contributed by Pro-Gamer.

In order to take the SS license test, you need Star ID. Defeat Gospel and you need army data.
Information in this section was contributed by Linkcooper.

Hint: SSS license:
Set either an Invis chip with a * code as your default chip, and make sure you have the chip ZeusHamr. In most of the battles, this will kill all the enemies. It can break through Guard; it even works on Hardheads. Note: make sure that if there is a Cloudy or a Flappy that you do not use ZeusHamr until after they land or else it will not hit them.
Information in this section was contributed by Christopher Bracikowski.

Hint: Easy S-busting level:
A very good way to get an S busting level is to use Advances. It seems necessary for some Bosses such as Bass. Some good ones are: Life Srd 3 (line up Elec, Heat, and aqua Blades. Buy them or get them from Green Mystery Data in WWW area 1); Arrows (Double, Triple, and Quad Needle); and Ultra bomb (Lil, Cros, and Big Bombs).
Information in this section was contributed by Chris Kayser.

Hint: Easy V3 chips:
When battling a V3 Navi, dodge all of his attacks and defeat him quickly. For better results you should use some Advances.
Information in this section was contributed by L5Ric.

Hint: Getting each of the five stars:
Information in this section was contributed by Steve.

Yellow star: Complete the game one time.
Green star: Defeat all four of the hidden bosses in the WWW areas.
Blue star: Complete the Program Advance List. Darkness is not required.
Red star: Get a data library of 250 chips.
Purple star: Get all of the secret chips.

Hint: Free look at a locked cube:
If you want to just take a look at the purple cube and you have an Unlocker, save the game next to it. Use the Unlocker and if the item is bad, then reset the game.

Hint: Get back to the testing area after getting ArmyData:
ArmyData is said to be found in the WWW Area. However, this is not true. The warp next to the WWW Netdealer leads to the area in between the four Gatekey warps with the locked mystery data. The locked data is the ArmyData. After getting it, jack out (since you are not in the WWW Area), then jack-in somewhere close to the License area (for example the first floor of Center's computer or even the test room itself) and take the test.

Hint: Getting free Navi chips:
You can get Navi chips in the slot in Netopia near the Hotel and Bank. Choose ten chips in the slot and get a new Navi chip back free. Sometimes you can even get Version 2 Chips. Note: a Navi chip does not appear every time.

Make sure you have Untrap. Go to Undernet 5. There will be three mystery program data. Use the Sub-chip Untrap and walk up to one of the mystery data. Unlock it. It will more than likely say "You got 100 Zenny!". Find the other one. It will usually have the same message. Find the last one. It will say "You got 50,000 Zenny!". Then, jack out and do it again. You can only do this a total of seven times; save it for when you need it.

Go to Undernet 5 with the sub chip "Untrap" equipped. Go up to a Mystery Data, then save the game. Open it, and if it is not 50,000 Zenny reset the game. If it is 50,000 Zenny, do not save the game. Then, go Delete Gospel. Wait until the credits are over and you will have the 50,000 Zenny you defeated Gospel with. Repeat this trick as many times as needed.

Team styles: Use Navi chips to defeat your enemies.

Shield styles: You must use Guard and Barrier chips. Note: You must not get hit when using these.

Attack style: Use only Battle chips to defeat your enemies, such as Shot Gun ,Wide Sword, Heat Shot, etc. If you get this style, you will start a battle with seven chips instead of four.

Hint: Recovery Deck:
If you are very far in the game (for example, when you are first in Netopia), then make a deck like the following:

WideSwrd - 2
Recov50 - 5
Recov80 - 5
Repair - 1
Candle1 - 2
Invis2 - 2
Invis3 - 1
Navi+20 - 3
Roll - 1
Roll V2 - 1

Hint: Recommended Decks:
If you have completed the game once (when you first defeat Gospel) and have one or more star stars, try to make a deck as follows to get very quick random encounters or easy Boss battles (to get chips for the ACDC Town Chip Trader Special only). For best results, use a Shld style that starts you off with a barrier. This way when you get ZeusHamr in your first set of chips in a battle, you can use it and not get hurt.
