All rights reserved. ============================================================================= S p a c e T e s t i n g --------- ------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJ | If the text to the left is lined up ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJ | correctly, then reading this document ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJ | will be easy. If it is not then you ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJ | need into courier new font with a 79 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJ | character width. The text then should ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ | line up correctly. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ============================================================================= S m a l l N o t e s --------- --------- This document is best viewed at any pixels. It only has a 79 character width and therefore can be seen on almost _any_ computer monitor. This is why CJayC wanted the width to be 79 characters. Another note, if you want to put this document in a processor so that you don't have to boot on the internet to get it then I urge you to do so. Just follow the legal disclaimer. And, when you put it on your computers hard drive, let it be a text processor such as Notepad. Even though Notepad is normal, it will work. Put on wordwrap and adjust the width of the window to the end of the line above. This will be 79 characters per line and therefore allow you to view this document at its best form. Going on to more notes, I would like to state that if you are looking for a certain thing press "Control" and "F" at the same time. This will bring up find. From here, type in the thing that you want to find and press find. It should bring you to where you would like to go. And that about wraps up the Small Notes section. ============================================================================= T a b l e o f C o n t e n t s --------- --- --------------- 1.00 - Introduction 2.00 - Contact Me 3.00 - Legal Disclaimer 4.00 - Versions 5.00 - Abilities 5.01 - Abilities by character 5.02 - Abilities by type 6.00 - Skills 7.00 - F.A.Q’s 8.00 - Special Thanks 9.00 - Conclusion ============================================================================= 1.00 - Introduction ============================================================================= The second FAQ that I have made for Breath of Fire 3 is a Ability FAQ. A lot of people pn the message board still want this. So, yet again, I decided to step up and make one! This guide covers all the abilities/skills you can get. They include abilities by characters and abilities by type. The skills our the ones you learn by enemy. I hope this handy guide is usefull to you! ============================================================================= 2.00 - Contact Me ============================================================================= This section labeled "Contact Information" is self explanitory. To be blunt, in this section you will find out how to contact me. What would you need to contact me for, you might ask? Well, if I made a mistake in this document I want to know about it. Mistakes include anything thay you can think of that I did not put into this guide or spelling errors (that I tend to make a lot). If you find any of these things please do not hesitate to tell me. When you do tell me I will give you complete credit. This means that I will put in what you said and then credit you at the beginning of it. For spelling errors, the corrections will be made and you will be put into the acknowledgements section. You can also tell me things that do not fall under these two things. So, now you know what you can ask me for and how you will be credited, let me tell you my E-mail address. My E-mail address is TestaALT@aol.com. This is an e-mail address that I have had for four years now and I plan to keep it. Please DO NOT talk to me on AIM. Only talk to me via e-mail. If people start flooding me on AIM I will be forced to close my buddy list. AIM is NOT for anything. I will not juggle information that you give me via AIM. I will tell you to use my E-mail. So, if you have anything to add or contribute to this file, do not hesitate to e-mail me. If it bad information that is not correct or something that is already in this document do not exspect a responce. If it is usefull then I will respond to it. The responce will most likely be to thank you for something that I did not pick up on earlier. For questions that are not in this walkthrough, I urge you to use the message boards at GameFAQs.com. If you want, you can e-mail me about a question that IS NOT in this walkthrough. I will be glad to tell you the answer and the question that was not in this walkthrough will be in it in the next update. If the version for this document is marked "FINAL", that means that this document has all of the information in this game. If I have forgotten something, I still urge you to e-mail me about the information. I might not reply back in this e-mail, however, because I will working on another project or whatnot. Please follow these simple rules! Thank you for reading this document!

Yes, you heard right. I am only 13 years of age. But that is besides the point. In my free time I like to play sports, play video games, and write FAQs. I like to play basketball and baseball. I love making FAQs and I do not want to stop until my death. I like making them and it is a lot of fun. I urge you to make FAQs because it is very enjoyable and increases your writing ability drastic- ally. And that about wraps it up!

This includes the legal disclaimer and the contact information. ============================================================================= 5.00 - Abilities ============================================================================= This is the big section of this FAQ. I will list all the abilities by character and all the abilities by type. But first I will tell you how to get a ability. To get a ability you have to level up. When you level you every once in a while you will get a ability! Abilities our a very big aspect in this game! Without them the game would be less fun in battle. ============================================================================= 5.01 - Abilities by character ============================================================================= In this mini-section I will list the ability by characters. I will put in their type, name, purpose, and AP cost. You can print this guide out (after looking at my legal disclaimer) and have it at all times. It is also very usefull if you wish to know what ability you might get right before a level up! I wish I had this...
