エストポリス伝記II
Chronicles of Estpolis II


This game has a lot of items. Most console games use one byte to identify items, so are limited to 255 items, and many don't use all of the available slots. This game adds a second byte and has over 400 actual, implemented, and obtainable items. Wow. I'll be listing them in the same order the game stores them internally, made possible by memory patching...

Note that every two points of STR give +2 to ATP and +1 to DFP, so items that raise STR also incidentally raise both ATP and DFP. Additionally, every two points of AGL give +1 to DFP, so items that raise AGL also incidentally raise DFP.

Items in bold blue count as Ancient Cave blue chest treasures. Blue chest treasures may appear in blue chests in the Ancient Cave, and you can freely take them in and out of the cave, unlike normal items. Items in italic red are cursed and cannot be removed once equipped except by uncursing them at a church or with the Purifying Drop item. Items in bold italic violet are cursed items that are also blue chest treasures (the cursed Mirror of Darkness is the only one of these).

Some items have names that are based on spell names, but have no other apparent meaning.

Thanks to Mew seeker for suggesting the romanization "miraculous". I was thinking "cross" for the second half, but that didn't work as well.

 いのちのみなもと
HPの最大値を上げます
 Life Source
Raises maximum HP value.
 Life potion
Increases HP to maximum.
 まほうのみなもと
MPの最大値を上げます
 Magic Source
Raises maximum MP value.
 Spell potion
Increases MP to maximum.

Life and Magic sources raise maximum HP and MP, respectively, by a random value from +3 to +7.

If you're obsessive (or cheat) and collect enough sources, you can raise both HP and MP even beyond 999. The menus display 999 for all values over 999, presumably until the value gets so high that it overflows.

 ちからのみなもと
腕力(STR)を上げます
 Power Source
Raises strength (STR).
 Power potion
Increases STR.
 はやさのみなもと
素早さ(AGL)を上げます
 Speed Source
Raises agility (AGL).
 Speed potion
Increases AGL.
 ちしきのみなもと
知力(INT)を上げます
 Intelligence Source
Raises intellect (INT).
 Mind potion
Increases INT.

Power, speed, and intelligence sources give +3 to their respecitve attributes, and can raise them to a maximum of 999, though it's unrealistic to get enough to actually do so.

Interestingly, even if an attribute has already reached 999, putting on equipment with bonuses (most notably the Egg Ring) or gaining levels can raise it even higher, though it still displays as only(!) 999 in the menus. This is presumably in part because stat gains from Source items are tracked separately from, and have no impact on, standard level-up gains. Level-up gains are somewhat random, but seem to have logic that makes them trend toward certain predefined averages, so another effect of this separation is that the bonus stat gains from items won't hinder these gains.

 ゆうきのみなもと
ガッツ(GUT)が上がります
 Bravery Source
Guts (GUT) rise.
 Brave
Increases GUT.

GUT has a maximum of 199 even with equipment bonuses, and using Bravery Sources is the only way to raise the base value. Each one gives +3 GUT.

 Plum cider

when used at Party Status

Heals 20 HP in the field. Increases ATP by 12.5% during combat.

I hadn't realized there was a difference, but Kahran042 points out that "liqueur" fits both the phonetics and the description better than "liquor".

 タプローズ
高価なお酒です。戦闘中に使うと攻撃力
キャンプ中に使うとHPが回復します
 Taplows
Expensive alcohol. Use during combat and attack
power improves, use in camp and HP recovers.
 Apple cider
Restores ATP when used
during battle, restores HP
when used at Party Status
screen.

Heals about 150 to 200 HP in the field. Increases ATP by 20% during combat.

Kahran042 notes that a Scottish distillery matches the phonetics, so I've updated to reflect that spelling.

I'm rather impressed at how many different varieties of cider they managed to come up with for the NA version...

removes curses.

The Purifying Drop appears only in the Ancient Cave, and serves as the only way to uncurse items while inside. Since the cave also has a wider variety of cursed items than the rest of the game, that makes these more useful than they might otherwise be.
