* [[Game Breaker]]: In ''Ruins of Lore'', the Chance Hit skill for the Fighter class can be acquired early in the game, consumes little MP, and deals random damage from 20 to 200 in intervals of 20 (''ignoring defense'' but still affected by critical hits), rendering ''all other attack spells'' pretty much obsolete and allowing ''many'' bosses to be handily defeated by otherwise puny characters for much of the game.

** Much later in the same game, it is possible with effort and planning to [[Gotta Catch Em All|recruit]] an [[Metal Slime|Anti Core]], which can be taught a wide variety of skills and has insane defense and speed, allowing it to attack up to ''eight'' times per round. Teach it Pickpocket and steal Power Sources from a certain enemy to arbitrarily boost its attack power, then teach it Rapidfire or Octostrike (no MP cost, hits all enemies) and watch as [[Hilarity Ensues]].

** ''The Legend Returns''' version of the Ancient Cave gave you a chance at finding a female-only weapon known as the Iris Blade. Equip that on Seena or Aima. Watch them tank every known enemy to hell.

** ''Ruins of Lore'': the Sacrifice skill--a 0 MP skill that is supposed to deal 999 damage to a non-boss but kill the user--fully heals the user if they target ''themselves''. Blue Tea in Ordens can be sold for more than the purchase price, and the Blacksmith near the beginning can be exploited to get a limitless amount of whatever item he last made.
