Soma Bringer Gameplay Blog 2 - Cannon Train Trick
0High quality! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4s7qj-DU4g&fmt=18
Well, I also cover some things that I didn't talk about in my other video. :3
(Oh yeah, those "boots" are actually greaves. :P)
Correction: the 8th character becomes available as a PARTY MEMBER toward the end of Act 1. She probably won't be playable until after the game is finished once? :O
Correction #2: Certain abilities can set-up or cause breaks. Constantly pounding on an enemy with normal attacks does not mean you will achieve a Break. S-Breaks occur when you counter an attack when the enemy is already at the !!! point.

What is special about the Cannon Trains?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At this point in the game, this is the only (mid) boss you can exploit the save and reset or change Acts method with.
But why would you want to do this in the first place? It's because the chances of the trains (or the one train, I dunno. I haven't beat up the second one yet) dropping a silver chest is high. On occasion, you'll even get a gold chest. :D Silver and gold chests == more rare items inside! :D I got an awesome bow and gun by doing this. I also levelled up a bit too. ^^
Remember that you can only defeat ONE train for this to work. Beating up both will force you to continue with the game as no amount of Act switching or flicking the DS off and on will bring them back.
You know, I think almost any kind of enemy can drop gold chests but the chances of that happening are minimal. :/
Addendums:
** Changing Acts or doing a save and reset is the only way enemies respawn in this game.
** Some skills and items have cooldown times meaning you can only use them again only after a fixed amount of time has passed.
** Oh, about the crazy amount of gold and high stats for a level 18 character: I used AR codes briefly for the heck of things. :P But since half the fun of the game is distributing points to stats and abilities, I decided to go back to playing it normally. Wish I got more than 3 measely AP and CP each level up though.
