CURE 2/REJUVINATE VS. RENEW/RAISE DEAD (Summary):
Raise Dead is inconsistent in its chances, redundant due to Rand's Wake command, and obsoleted once you're able to buy LifePLs/Ammonias.

Cure 2 is always useful, in comparison.  Plus, Nina can regenerate AP via her Will command.

THE ROUTE:

Capitan:
Walk into the Well with full HP & AP, as well as x45 Herbs
Use Defensive Formation against Godius, and have Nina Defend.  Heal Ryu if he’s 40 HP or less, Sten if 34 HP or less, and Lin & Nina if they’re so much as scratched

---------------------------------------------------------
VS. Goncharo (1300 HP): Normal (Defensive when healing)
Everyone either attacks, or heals when necessary.  Have Sten Herb if only one needs it; otherwise, have him use Spark while Nina uses Cyclone.
Nina’s slower than Goncharo, so don’t go out of your way to keep her alive.  Have her heal herself, and just hope Goncharo never does x2 AoEs
—Goncharo can kill with crits, but never fear; They only have a 1.5% chance of happening, and you can still win even with just two attackers.
---------------------------------------------------------

Get the Vitalizer and Amulet on the way out
Lie to Ray about saving everyone, so you can get Rejuvenate on Nina
SELL: Amulet
BUY: x6 Smoke Bombs and as many Wisdom Seeds as possible
Equip a bunch of weak armor to Ryu & Sten, then deathwarp back to Township.

Township:
Walk in and out to finish renovations
Give Rejuvinate to Nina
Make a Ryu/Rand/Nina/Sten party

TRANSLATION MISHAPS:



Control code entry mistakes (note that I don't know if this is the point she actually says this in the old translation).
