Items instead of spells:
When you run out of MP, it’s possible to use certain items instead of. For example, if your Black Mage wants to use Fire but has no MP, go to the item screen and use the Fire Staff. This only work if your character can equip the item that is being used. Not all items work. A few items guaranteed to work include the Ice Staff, Fire Staff, Light Staff, and Salamd Sword.
Shuriken hint:
If you keep finding shurikens but cannot use them, don’t worry You eventually be able to use them once you unlock the Ninja job.

Legendary item descriptions:
Eureka’s legendary items are mainly used by the following: Knight, Ninja, Devout, and Magus. Knights get two legendary items, Excalibur and Ragnarok, which equal a total of 277 attack. Ninjas get the dark sword Masamune, which has 132 attack by itself. Devouts use the legendary item Elder Staff, which casts Cura. Black Mages and Magus use Omnirod which doesn’t cast anything, but when used in melee it inflicts gradual petrification.
Quick and safe job leveling hint:
First, make sure you’re at least level 20 and have decent armor. The best place to level up your job is around Ur, where Goblins, weakest enemies in the game, are. Have a Bard with a Dream Harp so no potions or MP are wasted. You can reach job level 99 in 98 battles by guarding against goblins, only receiving 1 point of damage from each attack. During each battle, there is a certain number of times based on the number of actions required to level up a job. For example, a Bard requires 5 actions job level 1 to 14, and 6 actions job level 15 and up. You won’t need to heal, but if you do then use the Bard’s Sing ability every ten battles to remain at maximum HP.
Faster mail from citizens on Mognet:
To not wait an hour each time to send mail to citizens, first send mail to a citizen through Mognet. Then, go outside of the town you are in, save the game, and turn off the DS. Turn it back on and go to the DS’s system settings. Go to the clock and increase the time by one hour. Note: Don’t do this if the time is already on hour 23, as this may cause issues with sending mail, including disabling the send feature on Mognet for citizens for a day or two. Now, load the game and go back into town. You should be able to send mail again. Feel free to repeat this as many times as desired. This is useful for speeding up the process for Mognet events.
