Dark Cloud 2 Recruit Guide

I've added yet ANOTHER character I seem to have left out: Olivie. That's basically all that this update consists of. 3/2/03 - v 2.0 - Well, the e-mails just keep PILING IN! I guess it doesn't help that Dark Cloud 2 has been in the top 3 Most Visited FAQ Pages for some time now, does it? Dark Cloud 2 / Dark Chronicle. The game gives you hints for some inventions, but for the most part you'll need a guide to figure out how to make the best stuff.
