Stats Between Region Versions

[NightBlader]

Recently, I found out the Japanese/European version of Legend of Legaia is easier than the American version.
So I tested it with the same save file, and yes that works but I don't know if there's any side effects, and it is indeed easier.

So, what are the exact stats and rewards from the Jpn/PAL version? Only the US version has been (wonderfully) documented.

And is there a way to rom hack the US version to have the stats of the Jpn/PAL version?
Mainly because the PAL version is 50 fps.

I was working on a project for hacking the stats, although I thought it was to make it harder like everyone believed the Japanese version to be. Since we proved that wrong when I cracked open the stats on the US version, I kind of lost interest.

I managed to do it manually and played around with it but the program to patch it so far only reads out the values. It was a lengthy process since out of the 181 enemies, they stored them in 80 very different ways. Plus, you're limited on how much you can change. For instance, many monsters derive their stats from a base state. For instance: atk = 1.25 * base, agl = 0.8 * base, int = mp * 1.25, etc.

But what does the stats have to do with FPS? O_o

I didn't mean that. ^^'

I meant play the game with the other stats without having to deal with 50 FPS.
A nitpick at best. =p

Dude, with the stuff about this game you found and then made a walkthrough for, you'd have to screw up pretty hard for me to start calling you a moron. XD
