John Woo Reference
In the caravan town, enter the leader's hut and inspect a pair of pistols laying on a shelf. You will get the message "Inscribed: From Mr. Woo."
This is of course a reference to action flick director John Woo, who is known for having characters fight it out with a pistol in each hand in his films.
Obtaining the Light Wing Dragon
To obtain the Light Wing Dragon (Laser Level 6), you must first free the infant dragon from the Shellcoof Genesis Chamber after mutating to the Eye Wing Dragon (Laser Level 4). Let the story progress until your dragon reaches Laser Level 5 (somewhere near the end of disc 4) and return to the map location, Above the Ruins. Fly your dragon down the left branch of the canyon until you reach the roosting birds and wait until the infant dragon flies off the top of the screen.
Fly on a little farther (about 5 seconds or so), and turn around and fly back until you can target the infant dragon. Upon accessing the infant dragon, you will chase him, and the birds around the canyon a couple of times until the birds enter a small, secret cave. Enter the cave to reveal the birds' nest. One of the pyramids in the nest area contains the mutation up to the Light Wing Dragon.
Now you can access the crashed ship in the desert area and get a new Special Class berserker spell, as well as replace the Dragon Crest in the Red Ruins to change into the Solo Wing Dragon. Warning: once the Solo Wing Dragon is obtained, you will no longer have access to the infant dragon. So fly around a bit in the other map areas to get the hidden items he helps you find, beforehand.
World Map Rotation
In Panzer Dragoon Saga, first access the World map. Now press the R shift button to rotate the map counter-clockwise. Pressing the L shift button will rotate the map Clockwise. Pressing either button repeatly, will make the rotation start spinning faster.
Saved Game Secrets
If you have a saved game of Panzer Dragoon Zwei in you Saturn's memory, they following codes will be enabled on Panzer Dragoon Saga:
1. For every hour played in Zwei, you will start out Saga with that much Dyne mutiplied by a hundred. For example, if you played Zwei for 8 hours, you will start Saga with 800 Dyne.
2. The little girl who plays hide and seek outside of Vaiman's will give you a music box. Go back to camp to access the music box.
South Park Joke
On disk #2 of Panzer Dragoon Saga, go to the city of Zoah and then to Jubus's bar. From there go upstairs and check one of the tables. When you do, it will say "They killed Kenny" which is from the show South Park.
Slow or Speed-up Voices
When talking to people, you can make then talk slower and deeper or faster and higher by pressing L or R while they're talking. It seems to work in most places.
Other tricks
1. By loading up any Panzer Dragoon Saga Disk, opening the Saturn, and loading Zwei (all without turning the power off), you will be able to see exerpts from the intro movie from the firt Panzer Dragoon game.
2. With a saved game of Saga in you system's memory. you wiil be able to access "Pandra's Box" in Zwei.
Mini-Games
Beating the game lets you access three mini games (don't ask about the mini games or why there are mini games), Ancient Valley Coliseum Racing, where you see what those banners in the excavation site are for; Durmont's Ranch, where you explore as a Khorieat Coolia pup; and Fleet on the Lake, where you rack up as many points as you can in three minutes while busting up the Imperials' beach-head on the Uru lake again.
Many Rewards
On disk 3, go to the caravan. You'll hear from Baicah that Enkak is ill, and that he needs a rare cure. Go to Uru and you'll see a bird flying around at the start. Take it to its nest which is west of the entrance to the passage. There are two other birds, one to the south-west of the nest and one to the east of the passage. When all three birds have gotten home safely, the family leaves and you can pick up the cure. Go back to Baicah and he'll buy it for 2000 dynes PLUS will give you 5 speed chips. Near the end of disk 4, when An'jou returns, he'll give you a Berserk Vampire worth 10,000 dynes.
On disk 3, in the Holy District, talk to Quitor repeatedly. Not only can you buy Zaal Nuts for a cheat 500 dynes but if you have a Macral Jewel he'll buy it for 9,000 dynes. Also, speak to Rhoda repeatedly, and she'll give you some Zaal Nuts, and if you search the stacks of crops near the entrance of the district you'll find Zaal Harvests which can be sold for a good price.
Once you have the Eye Wing dragon (level 4 laser class) go to Shellcoof and unlock all of the pyramids surrounding the ship. Enter it and fly to the Genesis Chamber. Get the Ambrosias and the dragon's crest. You'll get a little dragon. He and the crest are useful later. The dragon will locate items that are out of reach and will collect them, but you must access him to get the items. A good way would be to fly on for about 8 seconds after he has flown off the top of the screen, and then backtrack.
If you manage to get a Light Wing dragon (level 6 laser class) return to the Forest of Zoah and go into the Red Ruins. there, go into the central structure and find the ruin without the dragon crest on it. Access it and you will return the crest to its proper place. Not only that, but you'll merge with the little dragon and turn into the Solo Wing dragon.
Feel like a speed boost? In the Forest of Zoah, just south of the south-western entrance to the Red Ruins, is a blue stalk. If you collected the Kuo Pollen from the Garil Desert, you can access this and turn it into a golden fruit which lets you fly faster. If you haven't got the Kuo Pollen, go to the Green Oasis and find the ruin which you destroyed to get underground. Access the correct white stalk and it will drop a red ball, which is Kuo Pollen. This also lets you fly at a consant speed if you tap L.
Extra Berzerk - Astral Phantoms
To get Astral Phantoms all you have to do is treat your Dragon right. Every time you're at a camp, make sure you either pet or smile at him. After a while, maybe by disc 3, you're dragon will learn it. Never ignore him, and every time you go to camp, if he's sleeping, wait until morning, pet him, then leave.
