This has seemingly remained unchanged.
You’ll likely be in the low 60s by the time you finish the game.
Tai Ho’s level will now transfer in the HD Remaster.
This was not the case in the original Suikoden 2.
You’ll simply need to recruit Mace, and then utilize Chinchirorin to gather the necessary Potch.
Just like with character levels, transferring data will lead to characters starting with better weapons.
Like with the character levels, Tai Ho’s weapon level will now transfer over in the HD Remaster.
