I'm replaying EBC and I just got the item Lemina's Purse again...What does it do really?...( Description: Usually empty... )

From what I understand if you equip it you'll get more silver from battles.

Thanks. I was thinking It'd give you less silver...( Lemina would secretly snatch some away just for herself... )

I don't know. I think it might boost the amount of gold you get from battles, but I didn't ever test this out. I spent over half the game equipped with it, and was short of gold nearly the whole time, so either... I would've been even more short of it, or it's just a nice item to have.

One FAQ I read on GameFAQs said it boosts luck a little. Another said it gives you gold. Wolfgang's site doesn't say anything about it, so... ah well. ^^;;;

According to the guide it increases the amount of silver from battle by 5%. I never had enough silver to buy all the equipment in a town without a little bit more fighting, even with it, as 5% isn't a huge help. Still was worth it I think, as there isn't much else that helps Lemina during non-boss times, so I generally threw it on her. (it HAS to be equipped by her BTW)

The bag is pretty much useless other than that small 5%.

Yeah, 5% isn't all that great really. I never did use the purse. I mean, if you think about it, 5% is what, an extra 50 silver per 1000 silver from battle, which you don't get for a while? I always remember getting silver in EBC was far more difficult than SSSC.

Oh, by the end of the game, I expect you've probably gotton about 2500 or 5000 silver from that thing, if you kept it equipped. That's the difference between getting a new shiny piece of equipment and not, if you think in those terms. However, usually you can get the best equipment from treasure chests at that point.

That was one thing I didn't understand about Lemina. That and that stuffed animal thing that you can equip. I didn't try either one of them, but 5% does sound like it could be a slight help.

The Gorgon Doll increased Wisdom and Magic Defense by 5, but reduced Luck by 1. Its significance is that in SSSC Mia thinks the 'Gon is cute, and apparently this doll belonged to her.

And if I remember correctly, if you put the Gorgon Doll, Rubber Boots and the Yellow(?) Pajamas on one person, you can sprint for an extended time. The downside, however, is that the person you have wearing the equipment starts every battle asleep.
