Does it help if I give boss tips?

Be carefull with fear

its not that bad

I say the boss is easy and the palace is short. Didn't need to use a special order to win against Kaneshiro.

Resist/Null Phys is your friend.

Yeah, in the boss fight it'll ask you to throw something at him, but you REALLY don't have to. Don't waste a precious Bead like I did

Makoto. Just use Makoto.

YOU DON'T NEED ANYTHING ELSE.

I agree with @Shadowgear, but even after palace, always use Makoto, she best girl

Not what I mean

SUI-KI CAN GO F*CK HIMSELF

There are 3 total safe rooms. Once you go down the elevator (the big one you'll know it when you see it) there is the last safe room to your left. As you solve the puzzles it will create a straight path back to that safe room. Use it. It is your friend. You so not wanna go back and repeat all the puzzles cuz you died looking for the non-existent next safe room like I did.

*do

The notes you find to open safes will be in items, you need to press L1 to switch to key items while in the item menu.
This may seem simple to everyone but you wouldn't believe how much I struggled finding the effin things.

Turn the music to Max,cause it is a jam.

Collect really good items. Anything shiny.

There's no shame in getting a pen and paper. Basic algebra is still algebra.
