Etrian Mystery Dungeon Cheats
Permanent STR stat gain
Get a Sovereign to level 10 and put a point into Fire/Freeze/Shock arms. Cast the spell on a member of your party and it temporarily raises your STR by 3. Casting again will temporarily increase by 3 again, but permanently increase by 3 as well. This can be done until that party member has 999 STR.
BGM Test
After beating the pre-credits storyline, viewing the credits, and returning to Aslarga, visit Magan’s house and report the success of the seventh mission to him. He will give you a Music Box. This allows you to, from the title screen’s Options menu, play the various background music tracks found in the game.
This can be later expanded by visiting him again after the twelfth mission and obtaining the Music Disc key item, which adds 10 new tracks.

Easily Evade DOEs
During the course of the game, you are likely to run into one of the difficult DOE enemies; they are particularly difficult to beat if you’re fighting them outside of the venue of a fort. If you happen to enter a floor that has a DOE on it, immediately use the staircase you just used to return to the previous floor, and then you can use the staircase on that floor next to where you begin. This will let the DOE rise two floors, however, so be sure a fort is ready at some point in the dungeon to block it; despite this, you can dodge by DOEs without battle!
Unparalyze Allies
Want to remove paralysis without wasting item or TP? Simply walk into that character with the leader. They’ll swap places, instantly removing the paralysis. Works at any time in the dungeon.
