Off: Oh yeah, judging by you nickname, I suppose you're familiar with "Saber" from TYPE-MOON's Fate/stay night series?

When all the enemies start giving 1 EXP, yes. xD There's a room with many of these monster-spitting creatures. Since they spit them all the time and many come out and each gives you 1 EXP, it's the best place to achieve maximum level.
But it is boring as hell. I talk from my own experience. xD

Yup, that room is good too. xD I know which one you're speaking of. There are about 15-20 of them. I also used it for quick grinding.

Sorry for the length ... lol it grew and grew :o
Hmm... "Jump Slash Chain" :D I thought it was only possible with the mouse and keyboard combination, but after testing, I think it's possible to use the keyboard as well... [much harder, only managed to pull 2 in a row in my test]
I'm using the old version of Ys, patched with the YS6_tujyou.exe file and then the english YsVI_ENG_v1202only.exe patch... Wonder if these bugs are in all the versions or just if you do that?
And that bug or something at 2:30~3:00 lol, I wonder if it's because I'm playing in Nightmare? Haven't played any of the other difficulties so I don't know if it's because of that or not...
lol and that "Wall Hogging" thing, only seems to work in just a few places, but I didn't realize until recently that all of those sweet spots are actually near ... the edges of the wall lol
I found all these tricks by accident. The wall thing was because I couldn't figure out how to reach that second area I "wall hogged" in the video... I completely missed a bunch of areas somehow when playing the Cave [even though I'd looked around multiple times] ..lol When I figured out the little ledge (wall hog) thinking I'd found some kind of secret area :D Instead it turns out to be a bug :P grr... Oh and one bug I didn't end up recording, that last place I wall hogged in the mountain area... I didn't know about that trick but I managed to get up there by getting hit by one of those thrown explosives which in turn sent me flying over the ledge :O When I tried to record it, it just wasn't happening anymore lol Figured it wasn't worth it since I discovered I could just wall hog there. But, it makes me wonder if there are any places that are normally unreachable, can be "damage hopped" into... I'd need to spend more time figuring out a good technique, since it's a lot of pain to do that lol
[oh and yep, I'm familiar with F/SN ;) I bought it, the PS2 and the anime....... yet... nope. I haven't watched or played any of them yet. lol.......... So that's kinda a spoiler... but it isn't! Since I think others have asked me that too :P] [name from a much older game...] So many games to play, .... including Oath of Felghana! Which I've had since NW sent me the english patch and I ordered the game! soon, soon! lol Well, I'm glad I finally played this though :D
As for the best grinding room in the limestone cave... I had to earn 2 million emel so I know well :D [had the swords all maxed early ... lol] It makes me wonder if I can collect the M pieces out of order? ... Oh wait, gotta get the *gulp* thing probably before I can :/
Anyways, best room hands down is the same room I did the second wall hugging thing... [if you have the maxed out air sword...] You just jump on the first platform and jump to them and they all come for you... then BAM! Collect, repeat! Much faster than the big room I used to use with all the shell guys...
If only I could have seen Leav's reaction when I brought in 2 million Emel... Probably needed Dogi to transport all that :P
Ys VI was a lot of fun, I just wish it was heckabigger/longer. The island was realllly small traveling, but from the lookouts; it looked huge! And the final area... GRR!!! I loved the battles, but Geis had me pumped up talking about demons, serpents and stuff :P We should have taken the stairs I guess...

It's likely that some of these bugs will remain and some won't among the versions. That bug at 2:30~3:00 might not happen in some versions (I tried it yesterday in the PSP and it didn't work xD). lol and that "Wall Hogging" thing, only seems to work in just a few places, but I didn't realize until recently that all of those sweet spots are actually near ... the edges of the wall lol Once you play Ys: The Oath in Felghana, you'll see that "Wall-Hogging" can be very useful. xD I recorded some videos using that in which I also didn't upload yet, but trust me that it's useful. xD (Also even though they removed the Jump Slash, you'll see they added little things here and there that can also be extremely exploitable. xD Once you get into YsF I can present you them.) Oh and one bug I didn't end up recording, that last place I wall hogged in the mountain area...

Awesome. xD
At first I asked because in PSP's Fate/Tiger Colosseum, Saber yells during her special move: "ekusu....CALIBAR!" Also the game's soundtest is amusing, as nearly every character has a "SEIBA!" dialogue. xDDD

So for some reason, i cant press 3 buttons on my keyboard at the same time, I mean I can, but the ones I use are the only ones I cant, which is the UP and LEFT arrow keys coupled with any other key and its annoying, is there a way to bypass this b/c any other combo of keys seems to work fine.

Im actually quite comfortable with the keyboard, odd as it may be, I tend to do better with the keyboard then I with the gamepad, or I just really suck at multiplayer platform games T_T
