Any chance of rewriting this walkthrough? It's confusing as hell. As well as including an accurate level skip path.

If you're interested in doing it, you're more than welcome. I can't tell if your post is intended asking for the author to rewrite it or if you're interested in doing it. Reply in this thread, PM me, or post in the volunteer thread if it's the latter. toast

I just started the game, so I don't think I'm qualified to write it. laugh

Basically, I was asking if the author could rewrite it, as well, that General Tips section doesn't really make any sense. It kinda jumps all over the place. The collectibles section is fine, but the achievements section needs some work, IMO.

I actually had to users thank me for this walkthrough but everyone is different smile . I recently traded this game in (idk why I never sell my games) so I would be more so iffy on a decent re-write (although it could be done). May I ask what confuses you?

As for an accurate level skip path I would need assistance on that.

Well, for starters that bit in General Tips after talking about the Money Cheat kinda jumps all over the place and difficult to follow. You talk about Pro difficulty, which isn't unlocked till after beating the game once, but don't really talk about what you do on the Normal difficulty run or what achievements one could expect on that run through.

Also, the Don't Get Hit 6 Times achievement doesn't need to be done on a single run. Getting it on the Final Fight is pretty difficult. Instead, do 4-5 stages on your first playthrough, then do those same stages on your second. It'll pop them as it's like the 10,000 monster kills.

You could also group the achievement together, like put all the Soul Collecting ones in the same space. It'd save on space and let people see how many they need without jumping all over the page.

Finally, there's the Collectibles page. While it does list the collectibles (and those were a big help for me), you also include stages without any. However, you don't include ALL of the stages without collectibles. IMO, either remove the listings without any or include all of the stages, just to maintain a consistent feel to it. I can't remember which ones are missing, but I do recall that there were a few. Also, some were missing whether the collectible was a silver, gold, or ruby piece.

Edit - Don't get me wrong, the Walkthrough helped me finish this horrible game. It could just be about 20% cooler. smile

Going in order off what you said:


I guess I wasn't clear. I ordered the achievements in the walkthrough in the order they would most likely pop if you played the game on Hard (or normal) first. Which I guess I can't predict everyone's playstyle (even though the game is straightforward everyone is different)

I didn't know that. Also the final fight is very easy as if you preform the right spells fast enough the boss fight ends before he even gets next to you for the first attack (I found that on X360A). I wrote this guide with some of my knowledge and things I learned off gamefaqs and x360a which led me to believe it HAD to be one playthrough but you claim it isn't


I'll have to take your word on missing some stages as I cannot load the game up and check.


Glad to hear some feedback smile

Thank you for writing the guide for X-blades with the cheat method. It helped me complete the Japanese version fast and easy.

Your guide is one of the rare ones that has actually helped me and is superior to x360a guides for the game. smile

found an error with the collectable page

The Great Gates Eve


•Underneath the stairs for a ruby.

•A silver piece is on the right at top of the stairs.

•A ruby piece is on the left.


the last one isnt in that level

in the "great gates darkness"
their is the ruby piece above and there is a gold piece under the stairs.

yes, that one. the game also helps by saying 2/2 collected after i defeated the boss, the next boss came out and that area (not mentioned in the page) also had 2.

You don't need every collectible in the game and there are some I never found myself.

I don't own this game anymore (idk why) so I can't go back to see.
