Dragon Warrior II's data tables (Nathan-R-Og/dq2)

Each of the 82 monsters, from the Slime (ID 1) to Malroth (ID 82), has 15 bytes of stats: maximum HP, a byte whose high nibble is its dodge chance in 64ths, gold, the low byte of its experience, agility, attack, defense, then eight bytes of resistances, attack patterns, and the experience's two high parts (two bits each, worth 256 and 1024). Each monster also has a drop byte: an item ID in the low six bits and a chance of 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, or 1/128 in the high two. A drop needs a free inventory slot: the code checks the party's slots first and skips the drop when they are full. Two exceptions: on map $04 (Midenhall B1) every fight drops the Staff of Thunder if a slot is free, and Hargon and Malroth (IDs $51 and up) skip the drop check, so they drop nothing. HP runs from 5 (Slime, Iron Ant) to 250 (Atlas, Bazuzu, Zarlox, and others), experience, computed from its three parts, from 0 (Hargon, Malroth) to 2200 (Zarlox), and gold from 0 (Hargon, Malroth) to 255 (Gold Orc, Metal Babble, Zarlox). A fight's gold is the sum of the killed monsters' gold, capped at 65,535; the party gets that total less a random cut of up to a quarter (total − ⌊⌊total ÷ 4⌋ × r ÷ 256⌋, r a random byte), and the total is doubled before the cut when a monster's treasure chest turns out empty because it held an item the party already has and may hold only one of. dw2-tables/monster-stats

Names are the disassembly's comments. The gold column is byte 2, which the kill code adds to the fight's gold total; the disassembly calls it "Max Gold dropped", and the award code (bank 4 lines 3704-3748) cuts it as the statement says before adding it to the party's gold, which it caps at 65,535. The items a party may hold more than one of are the Lottery Ticket, Fairy Water, Wing of the Wyvern, Antidote Herb, and Medical Herb (lines 3679-3703). The doubling is a 16-bit shift, so a total of 32,768 or more would lose its top bit. Bytes 7-14 are left as bytes; the disassembly reads them as an attack-probability list, Sleep, spell-damage, Defeat, Stopspell, Defense and Surround resistances, eight attack commands, and alternate-command bits. The comments in the drop table name the same monster IDs as the stats rows. The experience column is computed: byte 3, plus 256 times the top two bits of byte 8, plus 1024 times the top two bits of byte 9, as the kill code at bank 4 lines 6409-6421 assembles it. Hargon's drop byte (line 9862) names a Mysterious Hat at 1/128, but the code at lines 3461-3466 never reaches the table for monsters $51 and up, and that line's own comment says so. The multiply the award calls (B04_A05B, bank 4 lines 5290-5354) leaves the product's three bytes in $A1, $9D, and $9E; the award subtracts $9D-$9E, the product's top two bytes, so the cut is the product ÷ 256.

The experience table stores, for each hero and level, the experience gained since the last level: Midenhall to level 50, Cannock to 45, and Moonbrooke to 35, each ending at 1,000,000 in all. Moonbrooke's steps from level 30 are over 65,535, and the table stores them less 65,536. The level lookup adds the 65,536 back: from Moonbrooke's level-30 entry on, it adds 1 to the third byte of its running total at each level, so her levels still come at the totals shown. The experience it returns as needed for the next level keeps only the low two bytes of the difference, so while Moonbrooke needs 65,536 or more, the number comes out 65,536 short. dw2-tables/level-exp

The total column is the disassembly's running sum, from each line's comment; the stored column is the word itself. The lookup is B04_9D43 (bank 4 lines 4627-4721): it starts each hero at an offset into the table ($00, $62, $BA), sums words into a three-byte total, and adds 1 to the third byte from offset $F2, Moonbrooke's level 30, on (lines 4642-4670); it returns the difference's low two bytes in $8F-$90 (lines 4710-4719). Moonbrooke's steps from level 30 are 90,000 and 100,000, so the difference is never 131,072 or more.

Each hero's level-1 strength, agility, maximum HP, and maximum MP, then each level's gains, two nybbles a byte: Midenhall to level 50, Cannock to 45, Moonbrooke to 35. Midenhall's MP gain is 0 at every level. dw2-tables/level-stats

Level-1 rows are starting values; the other rows are gains at that level. Levels are counted by row per hero; the disassembly's comment on line 9600 reads "Lv 111" for Moonbrooke's level 11.

The level at which Cannock and Moonbrooke learn each spell, eight battle and eight field slots each: Cannock learns Heal at 1 and Sacrifice at 28, Moonbrooke Healmore at 1 and Chance at 25. A learned-spell list gets one bit per slot, set when the hero's level is at least the slot's level; Midenhall has no list. The slot order is the code's: a field menu shows slot n on line n, and the battle menu shows slots 0, 4, 1, 5, 2, 6, 3, 7 on lines 1-8 (dw2-tables/spell-lists), so the battle list's Firebal, Heal, Stopspell, ... are slots 0, 4, 1, ... dw2-tables/spell-levels

Spell names are the disassembly's comments, slot by slot, and the menu code agrees with them: the field menus read the slots in order, and the battle menus read slots 0, 4, 1, 5, 2, 6, 3, 7 for the lines of BattleSpells (Firebal, Heal, Stopspell, ...), which puts each battle spell on the slot its comment names. $FF slots (no spell) are left out. Defence is spelled as the game's spell-name list spells it (bank 6 line 9839). The battle menu's masks are the two bytes .byte $F0 and .byte $0F (fixed bank lines 11159-11160), read by lda $F39D, x (line 11118): they follow B0F_F392's eleven bytes of instructions ($F392-$F39C, lines 11147-11153), so they sit at $F39D.

Cannock's and Moonbrooke's spell menus, eight lines each for battle and for the field: each line's spell, by the menu's spell lists in bank 6, and the learning slot whose bit shows it. A field menu shows slot n on line n. The battle menu interleaves: lines 1-8 show slots 0, 4, 1, 5, 2, 6, 3, 7, so the battle list's order (Firebal, Heal, Stopspell, ...) is the learning table's battle slots taken alternately from its two halves. Each hero's eighth field line holds no spell. dw2-tables/spell-lists

The menu tests a line's bit in the hero's learned byte ($0618 + 2 × kind + hero, fixed bank lines 11076-11085): on a field line i it tests $80 shifted right i times; on a battle line it shifts $88 right by i/2 and keeps the high nibble on an even line and the low on an odd one ($F0 and $0F, lines 11159-11160). The learning routine rolls each slot's bit in from the bottom, so slot s ends at bit 7 − s. A line's name is the spell-name list's entry 16 × hero + 8 × kind + line, so the menu names a spell from its own list, not from the spell ID. Slot numbers are 0-7 within each kind, as in dw2-tables/spell-levels.

Dragon Warrior II's spell-ID-to-name table in bank 6: for each of spells $01-$17, the entry of the 32-name spell-name list that names it. The table is read at its own address minus one, so its first byte belongs to spell $01, not $00. Spell $11, a second Heal that no hero's menu lists, takes the same name as $09, Cannock's field Heal. dw2-tables/spell-name-index

The disassembly's comments on the table sit one line above the bytes they describe, because the read is lda SpellIDS-1, x: its line for "Spell ID #$00" holds spell $01's entry, and the last byte (line 8926, no comment) is spell $17's, Revive. Read that way, every spell the menus list gets its own name, as the spell column shows; read the comments' way, Firebal would be named Sleep. Names come from the spell-name list (bank 6 lines 9820-9851): entries 0-7 are Cannock's battle spells, 8-15 his field spells, 16-23 Moonbrooke's battle spells, 24-31 her field spells.

Dragon Warrior II's save points: 12 entries of four bytes (map, X, Y, and a fourth byte whose meaning isn't traced), from which the game places the party by the last save point's ID. Entries 0-6 are the seven places where the game saves, each set by the code that calls the save routine there (Midenhall's also on two other paths): Midenhall 2F, Cannock, Tantegel, Osterfair, Beran, the Rhone Shrine, and Hamlin. Entry 7, a second spot in Midenhall 2F, is set for one placement and replaced by entry 0 right after it; entries 8-11 (Moonbrooke, Midenhall 1F, and two world-map spots) are set only by bank 7's prologue. dw2-tables/save-points

Map names are the disassembly's map comments. X and Y are map squares; the routine multiplies them by 16 for pixels (fixed bank lines 1664-1677). The fourth byte goes to $45, which the code also sets when the party enters a map in other ways; bank 6 line 10626 tests it for $FF, 0, and 1, and its meaning isn't traced here. The routine is called from $C81F, $D2D8, and $FF5A (line 1626).

Hargon's minions: three fixed fights in Hargon's Castle, one each on 4F, 5F, and 6F (Atlas, Bazuzu, and Zarlox), each an entry of five bytes: map, X and Y in units of two squares, a status bit, and a fixed encounter. Stepping onto the spot starts the fight unless the minion's bit is already set; the bit is set after the fight unless the fight ends in an outcome not traced here ($FC). The check is skipped on Osterfair's map. dw2-tables/hargons-minions

Value: No. 0, 1, 2 · map $46 Hargon's Castle 4F, $47 Hargon's Castle 5F, $48 Hargon's Castle 6F · X ÷ 2 6, 1, 11 · Y ÷ 2 5, 1, 3 · Status bit $04, $08, $10 · Fixed encounter 8, 9, 10 · monster Atlas, Bazuzu, Zarlox

The routine compares the party's map X and Y, each halved, with the entry's (fixed bank lines 1869-1880), so a spot is a 2-by-2 block of squares. The status bits are in $D1, which the disassembly says also holds the Hamlin Waterway Gremlins' and the Evil Clown's bits. Map and monster names are the disassembly's comments; encounter numbers are those of dw2-tables/fixed-encounters. What outcome $FC means isn't traced here.

The crest-name list in bank 6 holds three names, Sun Crest, Water Crest, and Life Crest, for the message when a treasure gives a crest. The code picks by crest ID: $43 gets Water Crest, $40 Sun Crest, and any other crest ID ($41, $42, or $44) Life Crest. dw2-tables/crest-names

Each name ends in $FA, and the code copies from an offset into the list (bank 6 lines 5824-5852). The disassembly's comment at line 5833 notes that $41 and $42 would print Life Crest too; no treasure giving those IDs is traced here.

Cannock's and Moonbrooke's names: two lists of eight 8-byte names in bank 6, picked from the name the player gives the hero of Midenhall. The game adds up that name's eight bytes, each addition's carry going into the next, and Cannock's name is entry (sum AND 7), Moonbrooke's entry (sum AND $38) ÷ 8. dw2-tables/hero-names

The routine masks the sum with $38 and uses it as the byte offset directly (bank 6 lines 8692-8698), so Moonbrooke's entry comes from bits 3-5 of the sum; the disassembly's comment says bits 3-6. Names are padded with spaces to eight bytes, and the code copies them in two halves of four.

The six bytes after the name lists in bank 6 spell DQ2USA in ASCII: a battery-save signature. The game compares each byte with three copies in the cartridge's RAM; a byte that matches none of them makes it clear the save data and write the signature to all three copies. dw2-tables/save-signature

The copies are at $75FA, $6001, and $61A7; the clearing loop zeroes 13 blocks of $73 bytes and marks every save slot empty (bank 6 lines 7832-7862). The disassembly leaves the bytes unnamed (B06_ADB9).

The equipment table gives the power of each of the 35 weapons, armors, shields, and helmets (item IDs 1-35): from 2 (Bamboo Stick, Clothes) to 93 (Sword of Destruction). dw2-tables/equipment

Names are the disassembly's comments.

Each of the 64 item IDs has a price, and each piece of equipment a bit field of who can equip it ($01 Midenhall, $02 Cannock, $04 Moonbrooke). The Staff of Thunder is priced at 26,000 and the Sword of Erdrick at 2. dw2-tables/items

Names are the disassembly's comments. Items past the equipment have no EquipFields row; their cells are empty. The price table's comments name $25 "Tresures" and $3E "Perilous", and the item-name list in bank 6 has both spellings (lines 9721 and 9746).

Each spell's MP cost in a fight, with the Mysterious Hat, and on the field, and its base target in a fight. Increase, Sacrifice, Explodet, and Chance can't be cast on the field and have no field cost. In a fight Chance costs the most, 15 (12 with the hat); Revive costs 15 on the field. dw2-tables/spells

Names are the disassembly's comments. The target key is the disassembly's (00 open, 01 select enemy, 02 select ally); Chance's 03 isn't in it. The field cost table starts at spell 9, Heal, and has a row for spell $11, which the disassembly calls Heal "not used by heroes". The field cost table holds 0 for Increase, Sacrifice, Explodet, Chance; neither hero's field spell list (bank 6 lines 8928-8947) has them, so they can't be cast outside a fight, and their field cost is left empty.

The wares of 8 weapon-and-armor shops and 11 tool shops, six slots each; an empty slot is 0. dw2-tables/shop-wares

Places are the disassembly's comments. Item names come from the item price table's comments, by ID. ID 0 is "(no item)" in the price table's comments, an empty slot.

Each inn's price per party member, from 2 (Tantegel) to 40 (Tuhn, and Wellgarth Underground); a tenth entry, 30, has no inn named. dw2-tables/inn-prices

Places are the disassembly's comments; the last row's comment is "?".

The game's 61 listed treasures, each a map, X, Y, and contents: an item, a crest, a trap, nothing, or gold. IDs $45-$51 are gold amounts, each a base amount plus a random part. dw2-tables/treasure

Places are the disassembly's comments and map names come from its Map ID comments. List 2 holds the world-map finds, the Water and Sun Crests, and Zahan's Golden Key, which has two entries ("location #1" and "#2"); the Life Crest is in list 1. Item $FF is a trap (bank 6 line 5709 tests for it). Gold ranges are base to base plus the random byte, as the comments give them. The empty chest on Lighthouse 2F triggers the Star Crest battle, by its comment.

The per-terrain encounter rates, out of 255: 10 on grass, 4 at sea, 16 in forest, desert, and swamp, 25 on mountains, 8 in dungeons, 84 on the terrain the disassembly calls transitions, and 16 on a terrain the code sets only for maps $3D and $3E (the disassembly's Cave to Rhone 4F and 5F). The code also sends map $37 (Cave to Rhone B1) to the transitions terrain, so it uses 84, and Moonbrooke (map $09) to the dungeon terrain, so it uses 8. The overrides for maps $37, $3D, and $3E don't run when the check comes in on the transitions terrain, which keeps 84. dw2-tables/encounter-rates

Terrain names are the disassembly's comments; it labels terrain 7 "Cave to Rhone floors 5-7", but lines 74-79 set it only for maps $3D and $3E. On the world map the code indexes the table by terrain ID less one for every terrain but grass; dw2/encounter-rate reads the rates as the game applies them.

The fixed encounters, two groups each (a monster and a count; $FF is no group), from the Lianport Gremlins to Malroth. dw2-tables/fixed-encounters

Places are the disassembly's comments; it marks the eighth row's place "???". Monster names are from the stats table's comments.

The world map's encounter zones: a byte for each 16x16 block, read by the party's position; the low six bits are the land formation, and the high two pick one of four ocean formations ($40-$43). Each cell is written land/ocean. dw2-tables/world-map-zones

The formation each map from $2B up uses; maps below $2B other than the world map and Moonbrooke have no random encounters, and Moonbrooke uses formation $11. dw2-tables/dungeon-zones

Map names are the disassembly's comments. Formation $3F (63) means no encounters.

The 64 land and 4 ocean formations, six monster slots each. The high bits of the six bytes, read as one 6-bit number (computed; the special column), pick a special formation: a fight uses it 1 time in 8, and a formation whose number is $3F (every bit set) rolls again instead. A regular fight takes r, the random byte's low three bits (0 is the special formation): r = 7 gives slot 6 alone, one monster; r = 6 gives slot 5 alone, 3-6 of it; r = 5 gives slot 4, one monster, and by a second draw adds slot 1, 2, or 3 (42 in 256 each, computed), slots 3 and 1, 1 and 2, or 2 and 3 (26 in 256 each, computed), or all three (52 in 256, computed); r = 1-4 picks slot 1, 1, 2, or 3, then by a second draw keeps it alone (126 in 256, computed), adds the next or the one after among slots 1-3 (39 in 256 each, computed), or adds all three (52 in 256, computed). An empty picked slot makes the fight draw again; an empty added slot is skipped. Slots 1, 2, and 3 fill groups 2, 1, and 4, and slots 4-6 group 3. A group whose count isn't set gets 1, 2, 3, or 5 monsters (6, 6, 3, and 1 in 16, computed); then formations 0-12 are cut to 3 monsters in all and 13-17 to 4, one from each group in turn. dw2-tables/formations

Monster names are from the stats table's comments, by the low seven bits; - is $7F or $FF, no monster. Lines 290-316 mask slots 5 and 4 with $7F and treat $7F as empty. Rows 8, 13, 27, and 47 are decoded from the bytes; their comments differ (#$08 omits Magician, #$0D lists five, #$1B names Gremlin, #$2F names Magic Vampirus). Slots are numbered from 1 in the order of the monsters column. The regular-fight code is bank 4 lines 290-419: the second draws compare the second random byte with $D6, $AC, $82, $68, $4E, $34, $00 (for r = 5) and $82, $5B, $34, $00 (for r = 1-4) (lines 714-731), and slots 1-3 map to groups by B04_83BE (lines 760-761). Counts are drawn and cut at lines 495-567; the cut goes by formation index ($D8). A draw again counts against a limit of tries ($D9, lines 165-175), after which no fight starts.

The special formations: four slots each, read when a fight picks one 1 time in 8. dw2-tables/special-formations

Monster names are from the stats table's comments; - is no monster.

Dragon Warrior II's song table has 27 entries, each four channel pointers; this is the game's track listing, by song number, with where the game plays each, named from the code that requests it. Every entry is requested: 26 by a constant in the code (songs 14, 16, and 17 also through the music table of the town and castle maps), and song 15 only through that table, so the table holds no unused song. dw2-tables/tracks

Names are ours, from where the game plays each song. The disassembly's names: 0 "BGM off", 1 "Inn", 2 "revive", 3 "Echoing Flute echoing", 4 "Echoing Flute not echoing", 5 "Rubiss", 6 "lottery win", 7 "add party member", 8 "level up", 9 "battle win", 10 "cursed", 11 "title theme part 1", 12 "game menu / Wellgarth singer", 13 "Tantegel", 14 "town music 1", 16 "cave", 17 "tower", 18 "party defeat", 19 "shrine", 20 "full party", 21 "small party", 22 "sea", 23 "normal battle", 24 "Malroth battle", 25 "end credits", 26 "title theme part 2". Song 15 has no name there; only the map table requests it. Requests are bank and line in src/us/prg; "map table" is the fixed bank's map music (lines 7723-7732), read for maps $00-$18 that the code before it doesn't route elsewhere. Stores to $05F7 aren't requests: they set the music that resumes after a jingle (fixed bank lines 1200-1211 wait for the jingle to end, then play $05F7), so none is listed. One sets 0 after the fight with Malroth (bank 4 lines 3453-3458), so silence follows that victory jingle.

Dragon Warrior II's sound-effect table in bank 3 ($84D1) has 30 entries, IDs $80-$9D, each a pointer whose top bit picks the channel: set, the effect plays on pulse 2; clear, on noise. The entries that read $1Bxx or $1Cxx have the bit clear in the table; the play routine keeps the entry's high byte for the channel and sets the bit on the pointer it plays from. This is the game's sound-effect listing, by ID, with where the game plays each, named from the code that requests it. 24 are requested by a constant in the code and the last four only by bank 8's intro, which computes its IDs and can request $9A-$9D, or $80 (sound off) after a button press; $84 and $8E have no request in the code, so they are unused candidates. dw2-tables/sfx

Names are ours, from where the game plays each effect. The disassembly's names: $80 "SFX off", $81 "hit 1", $82 "Stairs", $83 "flee", $85 "single beep", $86 "double beep", $87 "hit 2", $88 "critical hit", $89 "attack 1", $8A "hit 3", $8B "attack 2", $8C "miss 1", $8D "miss 2", $8E "bump" (marked unused), $8F "speech", $90 "casting", $91 "swamp", $92 "open chest", $93 "door open", $94 "burning", $95 "Return", $96 "Watergate", $97 "shoals submerging", $98 "more Watergate?", $99 "teleport"; $84 and $9A-$9D have none. Requests are bank and line in src/us/prg. The play routine reads the table at $84D1 + 2 × (ID − $80) and sets the pointer's top bit before it plays; a clear top bit in the table puts the effect on the noise channel, a set one on pulse 2. The channel code writes each channel's control byte with sta $4000,Y (bank 3 line 159): the effect's Y is 4 when it takes pulse 2 and $0C when it takes noise, so it writes $4004, pulse 2's control register, or $400C, the noise channel's. The 17 pointers after the table, from $850D, are a different table, read by the stream code (bank 3 line 168), not by the effect routine. Bank 8's intro adds $1A to the low two bits of a step value and sets the top bit, so it can play only $9A-$9D, on odd steps; which of the four come up depends on its step tables, not quoted here. A joypad press during the intro counts up $99 (bank 8 lines 442-447), and with $99 not 0 the intro plays $80 in place of its computed ID (line 314), on the same odd steps: the step's low bit goes to the carry (tya, lsr, lines 309-310), and bcc at line 318 skips the play when it is clear. "The prologue" is bank 7's scene of the attack on Moonbrooke. Unused at a higher tier would need a full-game probe of the requests; neither $84 nor $8E is played through a computed ID in the code read.
