THE KEYS, HOW TO UPGRADE THE SHIP, AND THE TRUTH STONE
SILVER: It's in the cave between Howard Castle (the starting point of the game) and Aka Village. You'll need it to proceed, so level up and get equipment from Howard before going in.
GOLD: Teleport to Hamilton Castle and sail west. Sail up the river. At the fork, take a right (although there's a nice chest up the left fork), down, and up again, until you reach a "current is too strong" message. You MUST do that before the man will upgrade your ship. Now teleport to the Village of Solitude and talk to the man. He'll upgrade your ship. Now teleport back to Hamilton Castle and sail back up that river to the cave. The key is in a chest.
Remember this location, because the Hero Shield and Yellow Gem are also in this cave, but you'll need the cell key to get to them.
CELL KEY: Take your bomb to Colma City and talk to the man there. Then sail down the river to the Tower and go in. You'll need the Truth Stone for the endless staircase inside.
TRUTH STONE: Teleport to Raiton Castle. From a square south of the old man in the NE part of town, walk 7 steps south and 3 west, then search for a hidden staircase. As a side note, the directions for that are given to you at the Romario Shrine, although you don't need to speak to the sage at the shrine to use the directions.

DIRECTIONS IN THE LOST WOODS AND BONUS CAVE:
In the Lost Woods, when you're trying to get to the Hidden Cave (for the Panacea/Miracle-Cure), the directions are: E-S-E-S-E-W-S-N-S.
In the Bonus Cave, to get to the hidden platform where the Excalibur and Miracle Armor are, the directions are, from the single square that juts out east of the others:
E-N-E-E-S-S-E-E-N-E-E
To get back, from the square that juts out west from the others on the hidden platform:
W-W-S-W-W-N-N-W-W-S-W
I'll post locations of unique items later.

UNIQUE ITEMS:
This includes items not covered in the previous few posts.
Warrior/Ninja EQUIPMENT
Excaliber: On hidden platform of Bonus Cave.
Mircale Armor: On hidden platform of Bonus Cave (also Samurai).
I made a mistake in an earlier post. Excaliber can be equipped by both the Warrior and Ninja. Samurais can't equip it, though.
HERO EQUIPMENT:
Hero Sword: Cave leading to Last Town, guarded by snake.
Hero Armor: Last Cave
Hero Helm: Howard Castle, need Cell Key
Hero Shield: In same cave as Gold Key, need Cell Key.
NINJA-SAMURAI EQUIPMENT:
Masamune: Last Cave
Tokugawa Armor: Last Cave
MAGIC USER EQUIPMENT:
Dagger of Light: Last Cave
Miracle Robe: Chest in Last Town.
Ruby Shield: Woman in Elisa Town (7 gems)
Ruby Helmet: Woman in Calandora Town (5 pearls)

RINGS:
Flame Ring: Cave of Green Dragon
Ice Ring: Cave of Red Dragon
Strong Ring: Last Cave
Safeguard Ring: Last Town
The elemental rings are a bit better than generic Ring of Protection and offer about 25% more resistance to attacks in their respective elements.
LETTERS:
Companion Letter: Man in Port Town
Secret Letter: Man in Miros Town
Pickaxe: see post 425 regarding getting the ship
Panacea: see post 425 regarding getting the ship
If I missed anything, let me know.

Just wanted to say thanks to both Alex, and Tom for taking time out to make proper guides. Both are fantastic. Really appreciate all the efforts.

TIPS ABOUT THE GAME:
433. Tom Barrister Feb. 17. 2012 21:51
CHARACTERS (and these are just my recommendations, not absolutes):
Warrior: This is a good "tank" character, but its low agility means that it will usually act after the stronger enemies
Magic Swordsman: This character does a bit of everything, but doesn't do any of it well. I don't recommend using any.
Samurai: A versatile attacker with high agility. Recommended.
Monk: This or a Sage is vital to winning the game. Against the bosses, "Bless Barrier" is essential, as are Revive All Heal All, and all are exclusive to the Monk or Sage.
Magician: While it's nice to have the attack-all-enemies capability, attack magic gets less and less effective as the monsters get tougher. I don't recommend using one.
Ninja: These guys are the strongest and fastest fighters in the game. They and the Warrior are the only characters that can equip Excalibur.
Sage: This character can use all of the magic offered in the game. However, the Sage's offensive magic is fairly useless late in the game, and the only usable late-game spell that a Sage has and a Monk doesn't is "Wilt".
Since there is only one good set of unique equipment for a Magic user (Miracle Robe, Ruby Helmet, Ruby Shield), a second magic user is going to be at a disadvantage against the bosses.
For the above reasons, I recommend a team of Ninja, Samurai, Samurai, Monk for the late stages of the game.

LEVELING (Grinding) FARMING and GOLD FARMING:
The key to leveling late in the game are the Silver Bells. You can find these in the Cave near Malcus, but your characters won't hit them very often at that stage of the game. Fighters generally don't start hitting Silver Bells with any regularity until about Level 31-33.
Levels 1-32: I recommend a team of a Ninja and four Samurais. Be sure to carry a full bag of Herbs to heal with between battles. The best way to level is to simply fight wherever you are until you have as strong of equipment as is available, up to Magic equipment (armor, aegis, hat). After that, don't upgrade your armor, except for uniques, until you reach Final City (it isn't needed).
Levels 32-40. Go to Howard Castle and change the last Samurai to a Monk (which can wear the Magic armors, but the Monk will need a weapon). Now sail your ship to the islands north of the castle. Have your Monk/Sage cast Amor and feast on Silver Bells until you reach Level 40.
Level 40-48: Finish what you need to do to get to Final City, fetching all the unique equipment along the way. Then go into the final cave and get the unique equipment there. Outfit your party (the magic user should get the ruby helmet and shield) and fill in the missing spaces with Diamond equipment. You will save a lot of time and effort doing it this way.

GameFAQs rejected my item list for whatever reason they saw fit. Therefore, this is the only place that I will personally put any information about the game.
Alex: free free to use anything I've posted in your walkthrough/FAQ.

How do I get through the hallway at the double shrine on the north island with the tower?
