Running Ring
3,000G
| Purpose: |
Equip for MOV +2 |
| Equip on: |
Anyone in the Force |
| Location: |
The room where Desktop Kingdom was (at Creed’s Mansion). Search behind the chair, facing left (remember the boy trying to lift the ring? That’s it!). Note that you must find the ring before you get the Sky Orb – you cannot find it by returning to Creed’s mansion after this point. |
| Many people have problems finding it apparently, but I assure you it’s there. View the screenshot to see exactly where to search. |

Equip for DEF +10, Use for Aura level 2 |

| I only ever let Bowie have this one, but that’s because I don’t use VICRs (I find Master Monks are far superior). |

Life Ring
5,000G
| Purpose: |
Equip to regain 5HP per round |
| Equip on: |
Anyone in the Force who is promoted |
| Location: |
The Japanese version only. At the top of the Fairy Woods Bonus stage, to the right of the Bubbling Ooze.
About the screenshot: Using GeneCyst I disabled the top layer of graphics to be able to illustrate on the screenshot the actual location of the chest it is in (the stats box covers it otherwise). Since it’s in Japanese, here’s a picture showing Bowie once he got the Life Ring. I’ve put an insert on the screenshot of the location, so you can see that the text besides the Life Ring icon matches the text displayed when the chest is opened. |
| A very useful item, it’s just a shame that it’s only in the Japanese version, or at least can only be reached in the Japanese version due to the lack of the search-in-battle option in the USA and UK versions. |
Chirrup Sandals
5G
| Purpose: |
They squeak, the wearer seems to become one of the main targets in battle, and if unequipped on Slade or Bowie they may learn the glitch spell “Higins” |
| Equip on: |
Anyone in the Force |
| Location: |
Search the table/chair next to the secret passage in Galam Jail. |
|
According to Sir Astral, they ‘keep you happy’. The “Higins” spell uses 3 MP and is like a heal, but it doesn’t heal. If you look closely, the picture on the sandals would appear to be Jogurt from Shining Force!
It has recently been discovered (by ELrad) through hacking the ROM, that the Higins spell is indeed a glitch spell, used only as a “spacer” in the game’s code. It serves no purpose. Mystery solved!
