Anachronox Hints
About This Section
This section contains information on maxing out most aspects of your characters, mainly how and where to get master WorldSkills, the battle skills, and each character's best weapon. I have also explained what the battle skills do. I have not explained how to play the mini-games, since the in-game instructions do a fairly good job of that, nor have I included any information already in the manual. Also note that the battle skills are listed in order of increasing strength -- in some cases, you may find these skills in a different order as you play the game.
Finally, as a word of warning, these hints are probably best read after you've finished the game, unless you need a master skill to solve a particular puzzle or you're curious about how to use a battle skill you already have. I've tried to make these hints as spoiler-free as possible, but since a lot of these things happen or become available late in the game, it's very difficult to do so without including excessive spoiler warnings.
