I found the light blade by changing the order that I pulled stuff out of the trader tent, so yeah, order matters. Also Light Blade confirmed!
That is really weird, but awesome that you can get the Light Blade early like that! Damn this glitch is confusing, but if you can get all your gear before even entering the Labyrinth Proper, then that should reduce the amount of grinding you need to do and thus save plenty of time.
I will plug away at it some more and see what I can come up with later.
UPDATE:
Okay, the only thing I have figured out is that there must be a certain character that activates the rest of the glitch. I decided to test it out by using the same letter for two loops (because the letters will loop and overwrite a previous letter in the name entry screen if you go far enough). So I tested out by entering a Z 128 times (including each of the characters names). The result? I get SEVEN Bronze Armors (which is exactly what I thought Z would equal) but NOTHING after 7. No matter if I pull them out or not, or whether I have Milo and Pyra in the party or not, that is all I got.
However, it soon occurred to me that much like when you have to craft something from Mythril or a Dark Block, if you exit and enter the town again, it should be done. Sure enough, more Bronze Armors.
An idea did occur to me though as well that I will soon test out. According to my list, the letter A should give a Bull Whip, but in NONE of our tests, we have not seen a single Bull Whip. So I am gonna try my last test using all A's instead. I almost think the letter A might be a trigger for something else, but we shall see.
UPDATE 2:
SIGH, this glitch is something else. At least I figured out the space counts as 00 on the hex chart which will net a Bronze Dagger, other than that, I am having a hard time replicating some of these things even when doing the exact same thing. I may have to take the time to play through the game without codes to see how well the glitch works, but man, I've never seen anything like this. Though I also figured that A will net a Bull Whip.
