To get everyone's ancient weapon, you need to clear Olcadan's tutorial lessons with each individual character. You can find that in the Practice (single player) menu.

During Kilik's ending, press B + G when prompted for the normal grab move and you will have a variation of the A + G ending. (Unverified)

So far I made 2 devastating combos, all guaranteed hits unless your opponent escapes the B + G throw. It is recommended to mix it with the A + G throw occasionally.

Engage the B + G throw and immediately after the first hit, pull a 2-6 variable cancel, then press G and rotate the joystick 2-2-5-8-8-5. (Numbers refer to standard tourney fighter joystick directions).

If you didn't cheat and unlock everything at once, you'll need to find a steady source of money. Go to Single Player Mode and select the Soul Arena mission "Scorer" with Voldo. This mission is rather short and Voldo (or any other fighter you prefer) can easily complete the mission, bagging a consistent $15,000 (or more) for about three minutes of work.

Here's another method to make money (without a cheat device). Go to the Soul Arena and pick Asteroth and his Greal Maul weapon (doesn't have to be, but it helps) and enter the Turntable mission on hard mode. Do nothing but Asteroth's forward, forward B attack. Time it right, and you can push Taki out of the ring roughly, 4 seconds a round. Finish the mission in under 50 seconds (really easy this way) and BOOOM - you get $40,000.

To unlock the styles for your custom templates quickly, set the rounds for Versus Mode to 1 round. Create two custom characters of the same class and use them both in Versus Mode. Select the two custom characters and give one of the players a serious handicap. Repeatedly kill the handicapped player until you have over 50 wins. Save and quit and all the styles are unlocked for that class.

Some common American slang and/or racial epithets starting with A, B, D, H, F, N, and W and other are not allowed in your custom fighter's name.

Repeatedly press the confirm key (quickly) on any out of stock item or item you cannot purchase for a rather humourous (but useless) tirade.
