This time it's on Game Boy Advance and has a good translation, as well as new features and ideas that translated well into portable format. Make sure to check out section 3.0 for in depth game tips as well as analysis on all the new features that SquareEnix jammed into this game! *--------------*---------------*---------------*---------------*-------------* * 2.0 * WALKTHROUGH * 2.0 * *--------------*---------------*---------------*---------------*-------------* This is going to be the quickest way to get you through the game. I may have missed out on some things here and there, since I suck at finding hidden things sometimes, but you will be able to beat the game and all the bonus stuff as well. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- OPENING ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- The opening of the game still maintains that classic FF4 feel, with the airships coming up the screen and the (slightly changed) classic theme playing. There are some differences to note here. Cecil now has a portrait when he talks, you can't change his name here, and he uses attacks called "Blue Fang" and "Red Fang" when he attacks the enemies on the airship, and the battles definitely look really different. Just watch the interesting storyline as it plays out. This is my favorite intro to a video game ever. You assume the role of Cecil, captain of the Baron Knights, who are sent to Mysidia to kill some folks for a crystal. Cecil has a change of heart afterwards about the incident, and is ordered to take a Bomb Ring to the village of Mist to the east, along with his friend Kain. Well, let's do that, but first we have control in the castle, so let's get a move on! ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- BARON CASTLE ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items to be Found: Tent Ether 480 gil ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Head down. On floor 1F, hit the switch and nab the treasure chests. Head left, then go up the stairs. Keep going, and Rosa will talk to you. Go into the left tower, and now Cid will talk with you. Go up the tower. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rosa will walk in. Cecil is extremely mad at her for some reason, and refuses to talk to her. Rosa gets all bitchy, and gets worried because Cecil is leaving so soon. Cecil then turns into a wuss, reassures her that everything will be OK (heh heh), then goes back to sleep. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the morning, you should automatically go through a scene, where you leave the castle. The result: The start of your journey. Here's the cool monolague scene that ended after Final Fantasy 6, for some reason. Play FF7, FF8, or FF9 and see if you get one of these scenes. =/ ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- BARON VILLAGE ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items to be Found: Potion x3 Ether Gold Needle x2 Phoenix Down Tent x2 Hourglass Hour Glass Maiden's Kiss ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- SHOP ITEMS ------------ Potion - 30 gil Phoenix Down - 100 gil Gold Needle - 400 gil Maiden's Kiss - 60 gil Eye Drops - 30 gil Antidote - 40 gil Tent - 100 gil Gysahl Greens - 50 gil Go to the Inn. Check the pot on the right hand side to get the Potion. Go inside the Inn. Check the pot for another potion, and then click the swords and nab the treasure chests. Go by Rosa's house. You will see a bunch of pots, in the shape of a cross. Check the bottom pot in this cross, and you will get yet another potion. In Rosa's house, check the shelves to get a Ether, and check the pot to get a Maiden's Kiss. Go into the back of the town, inside the water there is a Tent and Hourglass. Now, buy some stuff, and head out into the world map. Head north, then west. You will be in the Mist Cave. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- MIST CAVE ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items to be Found: 2 Potions Eye Drops Tents ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Boss: Mist Dragon ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- SUGGESTED LEVELS: Cecil - 11, Kain - 11 ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- The first thing I would recommend for you to do once you get in here is raise your levels. You start off at Level 10, but I got to Level 11 outside. Like I said, levels in this game are not extraordinarily important, but they're important enough. I got Cecil to 13 and Kain to 12, I think. It is harder to get Kain to a high level than it is to get Cecil. The path through this place is actually damn easy. You should not need a walkthrough to get through here, but I will provide one anyways. Keep on going through the path. Wow, what tough stuff. There will be a warning soon."Go back....!" After you read the warning, head up and get the Potion from the treasure chest. Go left, down, and all the way around to get the Tent from the treasure chest. Go back up and get the Eye Drops from the treasure chest. Now go back down, and go right. Get the Potion from the treasure chest. Now, head up, and keep on going through the warnings, until you get to the boss. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MIST DRAGON 465 HP, 200 gil, 700 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This Mist Dragon boss should not be too hard. Just have Cecil attack the Dragon normally, while Kain Jumps it. Just jump it because the Jump attack does more damage then Kain's normal attack does. It doesn't really matter about the Mist Dragon's attacks, but this will mean most of them will focus on Cecil alone. Just keep him cured up, I hope you bought some Cure 1 Potions in Baron Village! Keep on doing this, and after about five, six rounds, the Mist Dragon will turn into Mist. At this point, do not do anything. This could be a good time to cure, as well. If you attack the Mist Dragon while it is in Mist form, it will counter with a COLDMIST attack which does more than double the damage that the normal attack does, and it affects both Cecil and Kain! However, if you jump, it will not counter. Odd. Soon enough, the boss will die. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Head out, save your game, de-equip Kain, and enter the Town of Mist. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- TOWN OF MIST ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items to be Found: None ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- When you enter the town, the ring will glow, and bombs will come and destroy the entire city. Then, you will hear this little girl crying. Head up and help her out. She tells Cecil and Kain that someone killed her mother's pet dragon. Uh oh. Cecil will fess up to the crime, and suddenly the little girl gets mad and frightened. Kain says that the King must want all the summoners to die, so the little girl must die as well. Fortunately, he regains his senses and decides to go against those orders of the king. You try to save the girl, but a battle ensues, and she summons Titan. Nice job. When you awaken, Kain will be gone, but you will have the little girl (Rydia) with you. OK.. Head north, then east, until you get to Kaipo. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- KAIPO ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items to be Found: Ether ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Boss: Officer and 3 Soldiers ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- SHOP ITEMS ----------- Potion - 30 gil Phoenix Down - 100 gil Gold Needle - 400 gil Maiden's Kiss - 60 gil Eye Drops - 30 gil Antidote - 40 gil Tent - 100 gil Gysahl Greens - 50 gil WEAPON SHOP ITEMS ------------------ Rod - 100 gil Staff - 160 gil Bow - 220 gil Iron Arrows - 10 gil ARMOR SHOP ITEMS ------------------ Leather Cap - 100 gil Clothes - 50 gil Leather Garb - 200 gil Iron Armlet - 100 gil Take the girl to the Kaipo Inn. The inkeeper will let you stay for free. In the middle of the night, a Baron General will come in, and say that all summoners must die! Since the girl is a summoner, that means that she must die soon. Cecil obviously disagrees with that, so the general orders that Cecil must die! Fight the boss. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OFFICER AND THREE SOLIDERS Soldiers - 30 HP each. Officer - 221 HP, 242 gil, 869 EXP ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This battle is not bad, at all. Killing all three soldiers, who all die in one hit, is all it takes to win this battle. You can kill off the Officer first for additional HP. Kill off all three soldiers and the Officer will just run away. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- You promise to protect the girl. Name her and go to sleep. In the morning, you have control. Go buy stuff, and get all the items. Head into the top right building, where Rosa will be. The man tells you she needs the Sand Ruby to survive. Leave the town. When you get outside, fight around the town, gaining levels. I reccomend getting Rydia to Level 7. Once you do that, save your game and head up and right to get to the Water Cavern. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- OLD WATERWAY ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items to be Found: Shadow Blade Potion x3 Ether x2 Dry Ether Feathered Cap Hades Helmet Hades Gloves Hades Armor Ice Rod Iron Armlet X-Potion Hermes Shoes Bomb Fragment x2 580 Gil Hour Glass Tent Maiden's Kiss Phoenix Down ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Boss: Octomamm ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- SUGGESTED LEVELS: Cecil - 15, Rydia - 10, Tellah - 20 ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Head up from the entrance, and grab the two treasure chests, which contain a couple of Potions. Head left, and take the treasure chest, which contains a Tent. Talk to the old man, and he will tell you that a bard has tricked his daughter into running away with him. Tellah will join your party. Go up, and take the treasure chest on the right hand side for an Iron Armlet. Equip it on Tellah. Go left and enter the waterfall. There is some stuff in here. Now, head out, and go up to the next floor. Keep following the path, collecting treasures from treasure chests along the way. The next room is a save room. Follow the conversation. Follow the path, grabbing the Ice Rod along the way. In the next room, grab the chests (Potion and Hermes Shoes), and go left of the stairway, go around to get the Feathered Cap. Now, take the stairway. Get the rest of the treasure chests, and leave to the overworld. Use a tent, and go inside the cave (up). Walk into the waterfall and you will fall down into it. Collect the Dark Knight stuff and equip it. Grab the armor, cure everyone, and get ready for a boss fight! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OCTOMAMM 2350 HP, 500 gil, 1200 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This guy is pretty simple. The thing you should notice most about him is how slow his attacks are when you finally defeat him compared to when the battle starts. I guess he just wears down as battle goes on. Have Rydia and Tellah attack with Bolt 1, although Rydia could use the Chocobo summon magic if you wish, since it will actually do more damage than Bolt 1. However, Tellah's most powerful attack is Bolt 1, so use it for now. Also, Tellah should be the healer for this battle, as he has Cure magic. Cecil's attacks should do at least 115 HP per attack, so that alone will help out. As you wear him down, he will start to lose legs. That is how you can tell if he is going to die or not. When Tellah mentions something about the monster slowing down, just pound away on it and it will die. The battle is not tough at all as long as you keep your HP up. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Leave and head to Damcyan Castle. Unequip Tellah when you get there. When you get to the town, save and head in, but before you do, the Red Wings fly by and attack it! Yikes! ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- DAMCYAN CASTLE ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items to be Found Tent Crossbow Feathered Cap Ruby Ring Ether Phoenix Down Gold Needle Eye Drops Antidote Potion Holy Arrows (x10) x2 Iron Arrows (x10) x2 ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Grab the tent and head to the top of the castle. Upon entering the castle you will see the remains of the once beautiful castle of Damcyan and also the downed guards. Once you have reached the center of the castle you will see Tellah's only daughter Anna lying on the floor almost dying. Tellah becomes enraged as he attacks the "Spoony Bard." You can't control this battle and everything the Bard is trying to say Tellah ignores, when Anna speaks Tellah comes to his senses and stops his attack against the Bard. Here Anna explains what had happened, it appears that when Edward and Anna was about to leave they were attacked by the Red Wings of Baron, also they had taken the Crystal of Fire. Anna explains that Edward is the prince of Damcyan and he was disguised as a Bard so that he can go to Kaipo and find Anna. Anna saved Edward's life by shielding him from the arrows that were brought upon by the Red Wings fleet. Afterwards Anna dies and Tellah is once again enraged, he wishes to take vengeance upon the one called Golbez, who led the Red Wings' attack against Damcyan. Cecil says he can't go alone but Tellah is too fustrated and angry to listen and he goes off on his own. Here Edward cries over Anna's death and Rydia calls him a "Crybaby!" she tells him that he is not the only one who has lost the ones he loved and tells him that he is a grown man. Edward does not care and he wishes to stay with Anna, Cecil comes over and literally knocks some sense into him. He tells Edward that Anna would not like it if he was just to stay here and Cecil desprately needs Edward's help. Edward wonders how he can help and Cecil tells him that he needs to find the Sandruby to cure Rosa's fever. Edward tells him that he has a Hovercraft and with it you can reach the cave of the Antlion. Before the party leaves out of the castle, Edward comes and says the final goodbye before leaving to help his new friends. Wow. That was damn cool stuff. Go out through the front entrance, then swing around the side. Enter the side building, open the secret door, go through the sercet passage, and go through the first wall in the second cell. Get the Leather Hat and Crossbow, leave, move to the next cell, and get the Ruby Ring. Now, exit, and take the stairs down. Grab the items in the six cheats (Ether, Phoenix Down, Eye Drops, Antidote, and Potion) and get the Arrows from 4 pots. Now, go outside. Use the hovercraft to go northeast, through the shallow rocks. Head to the cave below Mt. Hobs. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- ANTILION DEN ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items to be Found: Lamia's Harp Potion x3 Ether Spider's Silk x2 Gold Needle Tent Antarctic Wind Emergency Exit Phoenix Down Hour Glass ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Boss: Antlion ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- SUGGESTED LEVELS: Cecil - 17, Rydia - 14, Edward - 8 ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- There are six treasure chests in the first room. On the left side, there is a Potion and 190 gil. To the right side, there is 210 gil and a Potion. On the bottom left, there is a Tent and a Potion. Collect all the treasure then head down to the bottom right. Get the Phoenix Down and go in the door to get Lamia's Harp. Equip it on Edward, as it doubles his attack power. Head around, go up the door, and get the Antidote. Now go into the door, and use the save point, and get the three treasure chests, which contain a Phoenix Down, Ether, and Tent. Head into the left side of the room and get the 250 gil from the treasure chest. Head towards the center of the room and into the Nest of the Antilon. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ANTILON 1000 HP, 800 gil, 1500 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This boss fight is damn easy. The main thing you have to worry about is the Antilon's counter attack. It wil basically counter any physical attacks, so don't use them much. Have Cecil do physical attacks, since he can take the pain, Rydia could use her Chocobo summon magic, and Edward can heal and do attacks, he can somewhat take them if you built him up enough. This boss is pretty easy, just make sure to heal whenever possible, and he will die soon enough. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Get out of here and head back to Kaipo. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- KAIPO ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Hand Rosa the Sand Ruby and she will recover. She wakes up and tells you she followed you. Golbez is now the new captain of the Red Wings, which means that the king has truly lost his damn mind. Golbez already has the power of one crystal, and of course, he doesn't want to stop there, so he will go after the other three next. Edward will say that he already has the Fire Crystal of Damycan (hmm, I thought they gave him the Water Crystal of Mysidia at the beginning of the game..) and so he must be going to Fabul next. However, they cannot get to Fabul because the path to Fabul goes through Mt. Hobs, and Mt. Hobs is being blocked by ice. Rosa asks Rydia if she can cast Fire magic, but Rydia can't. Rosa can, I guess, because she joins your party. During the night, Edward will play his harp by the water, when a water hag comes to attack him. Beat him up, as a ghost of Anna cheers him. This turns out to be all a dream, so the game continues.. Put Rydia, Rosa, and Edward all in the back row. Hop on the hovercraft and go to Mt. Hobs, which is near the Antlion Den. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- MT. HOBS ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items To Be Found: Potion Gold Needle Tent 10 Holy Arrows 960 Gil ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Boss: Mombomb ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Cecil - 19, Rydia - 16, Edward - 14, Rosa - 11 ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- After a lot of talking, Rydia will cast Fire, and will learn Fire. Take the door on the left hand side (I love this music!), get the four treasure chests (Tent, Potion, Antidote, 350 Gold) and save your game at the save point. Now, head to the right side of the mountain. Head to the Summit, and this is when you meet Yang for the first time. Boss time! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOM BOMB 11000 HP, 543 gil, 2416 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This battle can get to be pretty tough. The toughest part about this battle is how the boss will change forms. It starts off the battle as the one Mombomb. Have Rydia use the Chocobo summon magic, have Cecil use his normal attacks, have Yang attack, Edward can heal or attack, and Rosa can use Aim. Soon enough, the Mombomb will change form. So far, so good. Keep your party healed, because sooner or later it will explode, which sauses 50 to 60 HP of damage to every character, and then turn into 3 Bombs and 3 Grey Bombs. Have the same attack pattern continue, but have Yang kick, and these bombs should be dead, although I did have a bit of trouble with them, since I was not too well off on HP after the Mombomb exploded on me like that. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- After this battle, Yang is warned about Golbez. Keep on going down the mountain. Exit and head to Fabul Castle. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- FABUL CASTLE ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items To Be Found: Demon Shield Deathbringer Potion Ether Tent Rage of Zeus Bomb Fragment Antarctic Wind Bacchus's Cider Hermes Shoes Spider's Silk ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Boss: Captain, 2 Fighters ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- SUGGESTED LEVELS: Cecil - 20, Rydia - 18, Edward 16, Rosa - 15, Yang - 12 ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- SHOP ITEMS ----------- Potion - 30 gil Phoenix Down - 100 gil Gold Needle - 400 gil Maiden's Kiss - 60 gil Eye Drops - 30 gil Antidote - 40 gil Tent - 100 gil Gysahl Greens - 50 gil WEAPON AND ARMOR SHOP ITEMS ---------------------------- Fire Claw - 350 gil Ice Claw - 450 gil Thunder Claw - 550 gil Demon Helm - 980 gil Demon Armor - 3000 gil Demon Gloves - 800 gil Buy some stuff and check around the town for items. Go inside the left tower and get the Rage of Zeus from the pot. Talk to Yang's Wife then head back down. In the right tower, you can get a Tent (king's bedroom) and a Bacchus's Cider (pot). Go to the throne room. Rydia and Rosa will stay behind behind, Cecil, Yang, and Edward till help protect the castle. Go through all the battles here. They're not that tough, just use Edward as a healer and have Yang do Kick and Cecil do normal attacks and you will do fine. Afterwards the party makes their last retreat back to the Crystal Room. Here Kain comes in and Cecil is shocked to see Kain alive. Here Kain wants to fight Cecil and Cecil has no choice. Here you shouldn't bother trying to fight Kain because he keeps using that JUMP attack and it will knock you out in a few blows. Here afterwards Kain will try to put Cecil out of his misery and Rosa comes in and tries to stop Kain, but Kain is somewhat startled and then Golbez finally meets the party. Here, Golbez knocks out both Edward and Yang, and commands Kain to take the Crystal of Air which Kain happily obliges. Here Golbez realizes that Rosa is important to Cecil and he kidnaps her and Kain tells Cecil he had a narrow escape. Afterwards Rydia is helpless against Kain and she performs the CURE magic towards the party and they are revived out of their wounds. Here, Yang will help Cecil this time, but Cecil's spirit has taken a hard punch. Now, head to the King's Chamber, and rest in the inn. Go talk to the King in the morning to get the boat, and the Deathbringer from the King. After doing everything, unequip everyone except Cecil, and head to the boat. (Sorry I am not being more detailed about this storyline stuff, I am not used to writing a walkthrough involving storyline elements. =). The boat is northeast of Fabul Castle, you'll see it when you leave the town. The boat takes the long route to Baron. The party wonders why, when a whirlpool sucks them in! The boat crashes, and Cecil wakes up.. alone. Go to Mysidia. Hoo boy. I bet you're glad to be here, eh? ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- TOWN OF MYSIDIA ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items To Be Found: None ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- SHOP ITEMS ----------- Potion - 30 gil Hi Potion - 150 gil Phoenix Down - 100 gil Gold Needle - 400 gil Echo Herbs - 50 gil Antidote - 40 gil Tent - 100 gil Cottage - 500 gil WEAPONS SHOP ITEMS ------------------- Ice Rod - 220 gil Flame Rod - 380 gil Healing Staff - 480 gil Crossbow - 700 gil Holy Arrows - 20 gil ARMOR SHOP ITEMS ----------------- Wizard's Hat - 700 gil Gaia Gear - 500 gil Silver Armlet - 650 gil Light Shield - 700 gil Light Helmet - 4000 gil Knight's Armor - 8000 gil Gauntlets - 3000 gil May I recommend not talking to anyone. See, you stole their crystal, so you're not exactly their best friend. Talk to the elder in the northern building. He will tell you to go to Mt. Ordeals to become a Paladin. He offers you the duet of Palom and Porom, who kick butt. Buy each twin a Magus Hat, Gaia Gear, and Silver Arm. In terms of weapons, Palom should have a Flame Rod, while Porom should have a Cure Staff. Buy all the Paladin stuff for Cecil. Now, head out and head east until you get to Mt. Ordeals. I recommend raising levels before going there. Below Mt. Ordeals, there is a Chocobo Forest. Use the Fat Chocobo to keep your items for you, while the White Chocobo will regain your MP for you. The yellow chocobo is the classic one that you can use for riding. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- MT.

Now, head up, and find Tellah. He will rejoin you. Put Cecil in the front row, the other three in the back. Now, head up the cliff, fighting enemies along the way. You will have to use Palom and Porom a lot. Don't worry about gaining levels for Cecil here. When you get to the top, save your game, go upi and left across the bridge to fight the boss. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCARMIGLIONE Scarmiglione: 3500 HP, 850 gil, 2800 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kill off the 4 Ghasts first. Using Fire 3 or Cure magic on them should kill them. Have Cecil focus on the Scarmiglione, even if the Ghasts aren't dead. When the Ghasts have died, have Palom and Porom do twin magic, while Tellah does Fire 2 or Fire 3. Cecil should attack normally throughout the fight. Milon will do bolt spells a lot, so make sure Porom heals the party after he does the Bolt spell. This guy really should not be that tough at all. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Now, go back and save, and go back to the bridge, go across and you will be attacked again! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCARMIGLIONE 3523 HP, 2500 gil, 3600 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You will notice about this battle the fact that Scarmiglione attacks you from behind, which means that you will have your back row characters in front, and your front row characters in back. There are two simple ways to combat that. One, before you go into battle, make sure Cecil is in the back row, and the other 3 are in the front row. That way, when the battle begins, Cecil will be in the front row, and the other 3 will be in the back row. Or, when the battle begins, have your first character do Row. Now, to the battle itself. Have Tellah cast Fire magic every around, and Palom do Fire 2. If he does not have Fire 2, then have Porom and Palom do twin magic every round. Cure as needed. Scarmiglione has a nasty poison attack, either let it ride out or have Tellah cast Esuna. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- You do not have to go back and save, since this next boss fight is almost impossible to lose. (even though I lost it, heh) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DARK KNIGHT 100,000 HP, 0 gil, 0 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Parry for 3 rounds and it's over. Whoo hoo. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After the battle, the cool music plays and Cecil has become a Paladin! Oh, what now! You will notice that he is quite a bit stronger, despite the fact he is Level 1. Anyways, the light will speak, and call him son. Why is the light calling him son? Tellah becomes the center of attention and learns Meteo, as well as the rest of his spells. Cool. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now then, I stayed up here until Cecil got to Level 20. It's not as bad as it sounds. You don't have to get that high, but I did, and it made the next place easier. Make sure to equip that Paladin stuff, though. When you are at a high enough level, head out, go to the chocobo forest, heal using the white one, use the yellow one to go back to Mysidia. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- TOWN OF MYSIDIA ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items To Be Found: None ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Talk to the Elder, and he will open the Serpent Road.

Next. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- YANG ???? HP, 0 gil, 0 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just beat up on him and Cure when he does Kick and you should do fine. He's not tough. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- After the scene, you will get the Baron Key. Unlock the Weapons and Armor shops and get some new equipment for Yang. Now, go over to the left hand side of town, and open that house. This is the entrance to the Waterway. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- OLD WATERWAY ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items To Be Found: Hi Potion Ether x2 Rage of Zeus Hour Glass Hermes' Shoes Spider's Silk Ancient Sword ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- SUGGESTED LEVELS: Cecil - 20, Palom - 20, Porom - 20, Tellah - 23, Yang - 19 ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- First thing you will notice is that a lot of tough enemies in here. I advise using the Bolt spell a lot, and then raising Levels until you are good to go. You can always heal back at the Inn if you have to. B4F: When you are finally ready to go, go down, and when you see a split in the path, go down, and right, and take the three treasure chests (Hi Potion, Ether, Rage of Zeus), then go right, and up, and left, then up, and follow the path until you get to the next room. B3F: Well, this is fun. Go into the water, and head down, through the secret passage, and get the Hour Glass. Go down again, and go through the secret passage to get the Spider's Silk. Go down, then when you get to the bottom, go right, and follow until you get out. Go up, and go left when you see the water on the left hand side. Go into the middle platform here to get the Hermes' Shoes, go back right, and then follow the path up. B2F: Go through here, go up the stairs, go left through the passage to get the Ether, then go out and up. B1FG: Before you save your game in the room, find the secret passage and go through it to get the Ancient Sword. Now, go back and save. Go out, and go right, then up, through the door. Remember this place? ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- BARON CASTLE ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items To Be Found: Unicorn Horn x2 Ether x4 Phoenix Down x2 Bacchus's Cider x2 Hermes' Shoes x2 Hi Potion x2 Tent x2 Elixir ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Bosses: Baigan (Left Arm/Right Arm) and Cagnazzo ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Go into the west tower and go into the bed if you need to. Follow the path counter clockwise until you get into the courtyard. Watch the scene here with Baigan, and you will fight him. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BAIGAN, LEFT ARM, RIGHT ARM Baigan: 4444 HP, 3000 gil, 4000 experience Left Arm: 444 HP, 0 gil, 10 experience Right Arm: 444 HP, 0 gil, 10 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This boss is pretty easy, all things considering. Just make sure to focus on the body. The arms are good to hit and all, but they just keep on regenerating, so why bother? If you have Tellah cast a powerful spell on the body, it will cast Wall. I just had everyone attack the center, and healed when necessary, and he died soon enough. Not that bad. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Go back and heal in the bed. Now go to the right side of the castle. Press the wall switch to get the two Unicorn Horns, two Ethers, and two Phoenix Downs. Go to the northeast tower, and get the two Hermes' Shoes and two Bacchus's Ciders. In the basement, get the Elixir. On the third floor, get the two Tents and the Ether. Get the other Ether in the pot. Now, go back and into the throne room. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CAGNAZZO 5312 HP, 4000 gil, 5500 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lightning. I cannot stress this enough, but this guy is really weak against Bolt magic. Equip Yang with the Bolt Claw, and have him do Power, that will take off some huge damage. Tellah and Palom should do either Bolt 2 or Bolt 3 each around, while Polom cures, especially after Cagnazzo does his one big attack, the Big Wave. However, as long as you do Bolt magic, it will break his barrier, so don't worry about it. When he goes into his shell, just use that time for curing and stuff. He ain't that bad, trust me. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Here after the battle Cid comes in, and the party introduces themselves to Cid. Now the party must hurry to retrieve the airship. But before they can do so Cagnazzo has already set a trap, the doors are locked and the walls are caving in. Here the twins turn themselves into Stone and stop the wall from caving in. Tellah tries to break the spell but to no avail, the twins willingly let their lives go to save the rest of the party. Tellah was the one who wanted to go first, but Cid re-groups the party. Meanwhile...In the Tower of Zot, Kain plans up a plot to capture the last crystal, they will exchange Rosa for the crystal, and Kain will be the messenger, Rosa tries to stop Kain, but Kain is too much under the influnce of Golbez's powerful mind control. Meanwhile back at the castle of Baron... Cid unlocks the hidden entrance to his airship and the Enterprise flies off, then suddenly the Red Wings come but they do not wish to fight this time. Kain delivers a message to Cecil, about trading in Rosa for the Crystal of Earth in Toroia. Now land your airship infront of Baron and return to the King's chambers in the basement below, remember the place with the mysterious force? Its gone now so enter it and the real King of Baron wishes to tell you something. He tells you to go to the Land of Summoned Monsters and return back after your trip, then he leaves. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- VILLAGE OF MIST ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items To Be Found: Bomb Fragment x3 Golden Hairpin Clothes Ruby Ring Rod of Change ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- WEAPON SHOP ITEMS ------------------ Whip - 3000 gil Dancing Dagger - 5000 gil ARMOR SHOP ITEMS ----------------- Bard's Tunic - 70 gil The Village of Mist is where it's always been :).

Troia will be on the lower left hand corner of a huge forest. There is a castle, and below it is a town. Go inside the town. There are some hidden items in this town. Climb out of the pool when you get in it, and head through the secret passage to get this grass like area. Get the 1000 Gil, Ether, Dry Ether, and Decoy. Go to the Pub inside the weapon shop and buy a Pass if you want. Now, leave this town. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- OVERWORLD AROUND TROIA ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items To Be Found: None ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- This is a very interesting part of the game, and this is one of the few times where I will include the overworld. Basically, you should level up here. If you are not on Level 25 for Cecil, get there. But the enemies around here are tough. Treants are Trees and usually come 2, along with 3 Sting rats. Have Yang Kick here, but be careful, because it probably won't kill the Sting Rats, and they will proceed to do Needle 3 times. Needle hurts, and is a powerful counterattack. If you see a Panther, KILL IT. First. because I died twice when I was gaining levels, their damn Bluster Attack kills a character instantly, and it's not like I had many guys alive to begin with. I had to raise levels fore a lot longer than I wanted because I had to start over. Anyways, buy non metallic weapons for all your characters, and then head into the Castle. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- TROIA CASTLE ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items To Be Found: Twin Harp Bacchus's Cider Tent x2 Hi Potion x2 Ether x2 Ruby Ring x2 ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Go north and talk to the eight sages. Now, go into the lower left hand corner, talk to Edward, and get the Twin Harp. Now then... your job here is done. Go out, and north to the chocobo forest. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- CHOCOBO VILLAGE ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items To Be Found: Gysahl ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- There are three chocobos here. White ones let you regain your lost MP (it's basically a free inn, as you can use Cure magic to regain your HP, then the white chocobo to regain lost MP). A Fat Chocobo is in the northern part of this area, use a Gysahl to summon it, it will let you store items. Now, take a black chocobo, and go east across the water, land it in the forest, save (reccomended), and then go inside the cave. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- MAGNETIC CAVERN ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items To Be Found: Hi Potion x2 Unicorn Horn Ether x2 2000 Gil Spider's Silk Hour Glass Fairy Claw Emergency Exit Earth Crystal ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Bosses: Dark Elf, Dark Dragon ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- SUGGESTED LEVELS: Cecil - 28, Tellah - 30, Cid - 28, Yang - 29 ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- You can work this one of two ways. One, you can be smart and use non metallic weapons to work your way through the cave. Two, you can be a dumbass like me, and just go through the cave without any weapons or armor, running from every battle. If you choose the first route, Use Fire 3 to kill Bats, and the Power attack and Holy Arrows to kill Ogres. Just hack away on Mages. B1F: Walk right, and get the Hi Potion from the treasure chest. Go back left, and head down. Keep going along the path, and get the treasure chest along the way. Go into the door. B2F: Go up, and when you get to the bridge, go in the door, and you will be in a room with 2 chests. Get the chests, go out, and go left. B3F: Go left, into the door, and save your game. Go out, and right, and down. Go into the room and get the three chests. Exit, go left, keep on going until you get to the next door. Get the Fairy Claw for Yang, go left, and go down through the door. B4F: Keep on going up the bridge, and head right when you can to the save point. Then go back, and up. Get the chest, then go into the Crystal Room. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DARK ELF 23890 HP, 7500 experience, 5000 gil ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The first fight, do nothing. Just don't waste your power doing anything, because he will kill you. Then Edward plays his harp, and the control is broken. In the second battle, have Tellah cast Wall on every member he can, Have everyone attack normally, while Yang does power. Use Diet Food when he casts Pig on you, that's the most annoying attack he does. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DARK DRAGON 3927 HP, 6000 experience, 5000 gil ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This guy is pretty tough. Have Cecil attack, Yang power, Tellah use Level 3 spells or Cure 3 when the enemy does its Breath attack, and that should do it. I died twice, but if you are on Level 30, you should have no problem beating him. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Afterwards the DARK ELF dies, so take the Crystal of Earth and return to Toroia. To make a short cut have Tellah use his WARP magic(or use the Exit item you found earlier) once he is outside the Crystal Room. Now head back to the center of the Castle of Toroia where the Clerics are. Inside the Clerics greet you, then suddenly Kain tells you to take the Crystal to his airship and he will show him where Rosa is. Beofre you leave go to the room where the lady was guarding the treasure earlier, now the treasure of Toroia is now yours! Now head back to Edward's room, and a short scenario will take place, Tellah now respects Edward and will avenge Anna's death and also avenge Edward's injury. Now leave Troia and head for your airship and make sure you save your game before you enter you airship. ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- TOWER OF ZOT ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Items To Be Found: Flame Mail Flame Sword Hell Claw Fire Shield Gaia Hammer Sage's Surplice ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Bosses: Magus Sisters, Barbariccia ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- SUGGESTED LEVELS: Cecil - 31, Tellah - 32, Cid - 30, Yang - 31 ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- Enter your airship, and watch the scene involving Kain taking the crystal and leaving you in the Tower of Zot to get Rosa. 1F: When you can finally move, head to the upper left hand corner and get the Flame Armor, and equip it on Cecil. Now, move directly right, in the northeast corner you will find the door to 2F. 2F: Go down, and make the first left you can make. Keep going until you can go down (there will be an opening in the wall), and do so. Head right, then down when you can. Head left, and then follow the path up. Head right when you can, and go up. About halfway up, on the left hand side, open the chest. Defeat the enemies to get the Flame Sword. Equip it on Cecil. Now, move back down, left, and up to go through the door. 3F: Basically, just follow the path. There are two paths you can take, and both lead you to 4F. 4F: Go down, then right, then go up when you can. Take the first door to your left. Go in, head right, and get the Hell Claw. Yang can equip this. Go all the way down and get the Fire Shield. Put it on Cecil. Now, go back up through the door. Go down, right, and go up through the next door. Grab the Gaia Hammer from the chest. Cid can use this. Now, go back out, go down, and head right, and up through the next door. Get the chest (Wizard Robe) and head back out. Equip Rydia with the Wizard Robe. Now, go down until the bottom, and head right, and go through that door. 5F: Go down, left, and go through the door. Use a tent and save. Go back out, left, and up, and engage in the first of two boss fights. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MAGUS SISTERS x3 Sandy: 2591 HP, 3000 gil, 2500 experience Cindy: 4599 HP, 3000 gil, 2500 experience Mindy: 2590 HP, 3000 gil, 2500 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This boss fight is really easy if you know how to handle it. Kill off the middle sister (Cindy) first, since it can heal people. It casts Wall, so don't use magic. Instead, use physical attacks. Once she is dead, kill the one in front (Mindy). Once she succumbs, take out the final sister. Easy enough, just make sure you heal when you have to (I didn't even have to), and the battle is yours. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Now, go back, and rest/save. Remove all items from Tellah, and go back up through where you fought the Magus Sisters. Watch the scene, Tellah leaves your party, but Kain and Rosa join. Equip them, then leave the room, and Valvalis, the third element, will attack! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BARBARICCIA 8636 HP, 5500 gil, 9000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I cannot stress how important patience is in this battle. Do not just hit the attack button when it is your turn to attack. Barbariccia will turn herself into a tornado, and when she does, she will counterattack you with a powerful wind attack which leaves all party members with single digit HP's. To get her out of this state, have Kain jump her. When she is normal, have Cecil and Cid attack, Rosa heal, Kain jump, and Yang use power. This battle wasn't bad, as long as you remember to keep healed, at all times. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- After this battle, Rosa will teleport you out of here to Castle Baron. Remember this room from the beginning of the game? Anyways, Kain will hand over the Magma Rock. Now where can you use it? Before leaving here, by the way, go down to the basement of the northeast tower, where the king will tell you to return later. Now, head back to the airship. Fly south of Baron until you get to Agart. Land, go inside, go into the well in the center of town, and drop the Magma in it. Go out, go in the aircraft, fly over the crater, and press X.

Rosa can heal and cure as necessary, while Yang does Power, and this boss will die before you know it. Just make sure to take out your frustrations on Golbez. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Afterwards, watch the scene, where basically Golbez's hand will steal the crystal. The King wants you to take back the crystals from the Tower of Babil.

B1F: Move down to the bottom. Get the Genji Gloves. Go to the right and go through the hidden passage to get the Genji Shield. Go through the bottom right exit door.

B3F: Fight two more Behemoths as you make you way down to Bahamut. You should consider Exiting and coming back in after killing the 3, since they don't come back once you beat them. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BAHAMUT 45001 HP, 0 gil, 35000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have every character use Moon Veils or Star Veils, while Rosa casts Wall. If 4 characters got Wall off, you should have no problem. Just keep Wall up and his attack will hit him for 9999 damage. Bring characters back to Life using Life potions then have Rosa cast Wall on them. As long as you keep Wall up, he's no problem. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Now, go back to the Earth.

Head up, and go through the exit. Go down through the teleporter. Head left and up to get the chest. Follow the path, getting the two chests. When you get to the door, skip it and keep on going to get another chest. Now, go through the door. Go up and get the chest. Now, go down and right, make a right in the path and go up to get the chest. Go down, and take the left curve this time. Follow the path and go through the next door. Go down, follow the path, get the chest along the way. When you get a choice, go left, and rest/save, then go up through the door. Go up and prepare for two somewhat easy boss battles. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOUR FIENDS 28000 HP each, 10000 gil, 62500 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For a battle this late, it should not be this easy. Cast Fire 3 against 1st one, Bolt 3 against the next 2, and cast Ice 3 against the last one. Cure as needed, and you are good to go. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CPU, ATTACKER, DEFENDER CPU: 30000 HP, 10333 gil, 50000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kill the Defender (bottom) orb first, then go for the CPU itself.

Go up, then right, then you see that opening on the right hand side? Go through it, it's a secret passage. Go across, and follow the path. Get the Black Garb from the chest. Now, go up, and back through the secret passage. Go to the other side and go through the other secret passage. Go down and go through the teleporter. Go up through the door. Go around, get the Stardust Rod from the chest, and go down through the door. Go left, down, and left through the door. Go up, left, cast Float and cure your party, then engage in the boss battle here. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WHITE DRAGON 32700 HP, 0 gil, 55000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you cast Float before the battle on the entire party, the Gaia Rage attack this guy will throw at you will be largely ineffective. Have Rydia summon Bahamut, Rosa cast Cure 4 EVERY round, because the White Dragon does this storm attack which takes everyone down to 10 HP or less, and that's not a very good thing, and he can pull it off at any time, so just have Rosa cast Cure 4 on everyone, so it'll heal the effects. Cecil and Kain should attack normally, by the way. You win this battle, you get Edge's Murasame. Cool. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Now, go back down, then follow the path until you get back to the main first area. You can go out and save now if you want, that's what I did. Come back in, and go down through the door. Go down, then right, through the secret passage. About 1/8th the way up, go left, and follow that to get the Fire Whip, Rydia's best weapon. Move out, then continue heading up the passage. Go left, through the wall, and get the Dragon Shield from the chest, then go through the door. Here, go all the way down, past the door, and go to the bottom, then right through the secret passage. Get the Dragon Helm from the chest, then go down, and left, and get the Dragon Armor and Dragon Gauntlets from the two treasure chests. Now head out of here, and go up through that door. Go all the way right and pick up the Artemis Arrows from the chest. Go back left, and go down. Head left and go through the door. Now, head out, and go down the bridge, to the right hand door. Go in here, go to the upper right hand corner, and get the Elixir. Go over to the left, get the other Elixir, then go through the door. Go down, and get the White Fang from the chest. Go down the bridge here. Swerve up here and get the X Potion. Now, go through the door. Go up, then right through the passage, and get the Stardust Rod after beating the Behemoth. Go right through the passage, and when you go out, go down, and out. Get the Crystal Shield. Go back through the door, and go straight up through the next door. Go right and up to get the Protect Ring. Go down, and go left through the door on the left side. Go up, left, then down to get the Protect Ring. Go up through the door. Go left, and up to get the Crystal Armor. Go right, and go through the door on the far right hand side. Go in and get the Crystal Gauntlets. Go down, and go through the bridge. Get the White Robe and Crystal Helm. Go down the left hand bridge to get the Fuma Shuriken. Go up, then swing around the right hand side, and go down through the door. Go up here and get the Cabin from the left hand side, and go through the right hand door. Go through the door. Go down, go through the first door to save. Now, go out, and go back through the door. Go down through that door. Swing up, then left, over the invisible platform. Then go left, then up, then right through the secret passage to get to a teleporter. Go down, and get the Minerva Plate. Go right, and go through the teleporter. Go up, and go through the teleporter. Go up, get the chest, keep going up. Save your game here, use a tent or cottage, go out, and fight Wyvern. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DARK BAHAMUT 60000 HP, 0 gil, 64000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I had a pretty easy time beating this boss, since its Megafire attack only killed one person (Rydia), and didn't cast Megafire again, only Megaflare on one character, which pretty much killed it. Use up all your Starveils and Moonveils, have everyone attack, Rosa use Wall, Life 2, and Cure 4, and have Rydia summon Bahamut while Edge throws stuff. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- You get the Ragnarok for winning. Cool. Give it to Cecil, now go back and save. Follow the path down, and go back to the other save point. Cabin, save there. Now, go out and go through the door to the right. This is a fun boss. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PLAGUE 33333 HP, 550 gil, 31108 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kill off everyone except Cecil before the battle starts. Plague will cast Doom on Cecil. Have Cecil attack, and on his next turn, give Rydia a life potion. Plague will cast Doom on Cecil and Rydia, restarting the countdown. Have her cast Bahamut, and Cecil attack. Next turn, have Rydia give Kain a life potion. Plague will cast Doom on the 3 characters. Have Cecil and Kain attack, while Rydia uses Bahamut again. Next round, have the first character give edge a life potion. Now, he will cast Doom on 4 characters. He should die soon if you have them do normal attacks, he should die after 3 Cecil attacks and 3 Bahamuts. Bring Rosa back quick if you want her to gain the experience. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- You get Kain's Holy Spear here. Cool. Now, go back and save. Go two rooms over, and engage in the other boss fight here. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LUNASAURUS 23000 HP each, 0 gil, 29500 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There are two of them! Kill one first, obviously. They cast Wall on themselves. They do this annoying fire attack, so just kill off one first. Have Rydia summon Bahamut, Rosa use Holy or Cure 4, and everyone else attack like mad. Have Rosa cast Slow on them when their Wall spell goes off for an easier battle. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- The prize here are two Ribbons. Cool. Go back, and save. Now, go up, and left, down, through the door. Go right, then down, then all the way to the left and get the chest. Go down, and follow the path down to engage in another boss battle. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OGOPOGO 50000 HP each, 0 gil, 61000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have Rydia summon Bahamut, Rosa cure everyone as needed, Kain should jump to avoid the Big Wave attack, and Cecil should attack. Edge should either throw stuff, or just attack as normally. He will start off the battle doing Big Wave twice, then once, then twice. So Rosa will have to heal like crazy. Have her heal, while everyone does their attacks, and he should die. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Go back and save. Now go back, but go north this time, through the door. Follow the path, and get the final chest. Soon enough, you will be to Zeromus. Golbez and Tellah finish off Zemus, but they forgot about Zeromus. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ZEROMUS 100000 HP, 0 gil, 0 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- SUGGESTED LEVELS: Cecil - 76, Rosa - 75, Rydia - 72, Edge - 74, Kain - 78 ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- On the first form, make sure to just parry until Edge steals the Dark Matter. Then have Edge use the Crystal. Now Zeromus' true form will be revealed. Here are his three main attacks. Big Bang - Major damage caused, in the area of 2000 HP, devastating if he does it twice in a row. Black Hole - It removes all your good status magic. Flare - Major damage to one character. He does this as a normal attack. Therefore, do not attack him unless it will be a good attack, because he will usually counterattack with Big Bang, then Black Hole. This is what you should do. Cecil - Attack, and heal as needed. Rosa - Cure 4, Life 2, Shell. Kain - Jump, and heal as needed. Rydia - Bahamut, and heal as needed. Edge - Throw Excalibur, Dragon Lance, etc. and heal as needed. Good luck! Try to be on level 75 before fighting him, but make sure you do not attack him until you are fully cured! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- YOU HAVE BEAT THE GAME! If you beat Zeromus with every character, you unlock the special dungeon, Lunar Ruins, which I will have a strategy up for when I beat it! *--------------*---------------*---------------*---------------*-------------* * 3.0 * READER SECTION * 3.0 * *--------------*---------------*---------------*---------------*-------------* This is a section which I usually include for the new games that I write for now.

Just have Cecil attack the Dragon normally, while Kain Jumps it. Just jump it because the Jump attack does more damage then Kain's normal attack does. It doesn't really matter about the Mist Dragon's attacks, but this will mean most of them will focus on Cecil alone. Just keep him cured up, I hope you bought some Cure 1 Potions in Baron Village! Keep on doing this, and after about five, six rounds, the Mist Dragon will turn into Mist. At this point, do not do anything. This could be a good time to cure, as well. If you attack the Mist Dragon while it is in Mist form, it will counter with a COLDMIST attack which does more than double the damage that the normal attack does, and it affects both Cecil and Kain! However, if you jump, it will not counter. Odd. Soon enough, the boss will die. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OCTOMAMM 2350 HP, 500 gil, 1200 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This guy is pretty simple. The thing you should notice most about him is how slow his attacks are when you finally defeat him compared to when the battle starts. I guess he just wears down as battle goes on. Have Rydia and Tellah attack with Bolt 1, although Rydia could use the Chocobo summon magic if you wish, since it will actually do more damage than Bolt 1. However, Tellah's most powerful attack is Bolt 1, so use it for now. Also, Tellah should be the healer for this battle, as he has Cure magic. Cecil's attacks should do at least 115 HP per attack, so that alone will help out. As you wear him down, he will start to lose legs. That is how you can tell if he is going to die or not. When Tellah mentions something about the monster slowing down, just pound away on it and it will die. The battle is not tough at all as long as you keep your HP up. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ANTILON 1000 HP, 800 gil, 1500 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This boss fight is damn easy. The main thing you have to worry about is the Antilon's counter attack. It wil basically counter any physical attacks, so don't use them much. Have Cecil do physical attacks, since he can take the pain, Rydia could use her Chocobo summon magic, and Edward can heal and do attacks, he can somewhat take them if you built him up enough. This boss is pretty easy, just make sure to heal whenever possible, and he will die soon enough. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOM BOMB 11000 HP, 543 gil, 2416 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This battle can get to be pretty tough. The toughest part about this battle is how the boss will change forms. It starts off the battle as the one Mombomb. Have Rydia use the Chocobo summon magic, have Cecil use his normal attacks, have Yang attack, Edward can heal or attack, and Rosa can use Aim. Soon enough, the Mombomb will change form. So far, so good. Keep your party healed, because sooner or later it will explode, which sauses 50 to 60 HP of damage to every character, and then turn into 3 Bombs and 3 Grey Bombs. Have the same attack pattern continue, but have Yang kick, and these bombs should be dead, although I did have a bit of trouble with them, since I was not too well off on HP after the Mombomb exploded on me like that. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCARMIGLIONE Scarmiglione: 3500 HP, 850 gil, 2800 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kill off the 4 Ghasts first. Using Fire 3 or Cure magic on them should kill them. Have Cecil focus on the Scarmiglione, even if the Ghasts aren't dead. When the Ghasts have died, have Palom and Porom do twin magic, while Tellah does Fire 2 or Fire 3. Cecil should attack normally throughout the fight. Milon will do bolt spells a lot, so make sure Porom heals the party after he does the Bolt spell. This guy really should not be that tough at all. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCARMIGLIONE 3523 HP, 2500 gil, 3600 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You will notice about this battle the fact that Scarmiglione attacks you from behind, which means that you will have your back row characters in front, and your front row characters in back. There are two simple ways to combat that. One, before you go into battle, make sure Cecil is in the back row, and the other 3 are in the front row. That way, when the battle begins, Cecil will be in the front row, and the other 3 will be in the back row. Or, when the battle begins, have your first character do Row. Now, to the battle itself. Have Tellah cast Fire magic every around, and Palom do Fire 2. If he does not have Fire 2, then have Porom and Palom do twin magic every round. Cure as needed. Scarmiglione has a nasty poison attack, either let it ride out or have Tellah cast Esuna. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DARK KNIGHT 100,000 HP, 0 gil, 0 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Parry for 3 rounds and it's over. Whoo hoo. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 GUARDS 280 HP each, 0 gil, 0 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Easy. Next. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- YANG ???? HP, 0 gil, 0 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just beat up on him and Cure when he does Kick and you should do fine. He's not tough. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BAIGAN, LEFT ARM, RIGHT ARM Baigan: 4444 HP, 3000 gil, 4000 experience Left Arm: 444 HP, 0 gil, 10 experience Right Arm: 444 HP, 0 gil, 10 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This boss is pretty easy, all things considering. Just make sure to focus on the body. The arms are good to hit and all, but they just keep on regenerating, so why bother? If you have Tellah cast a powerful spell on the body, it will cast Wall. I just had everyone attack the center, and healed when necessary, and he died soon enough. Not that bad. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CAGNAZZO 5312 HP, 4000 gil, 5500 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lightning. I cannot stress this enough, but this guy is really weak against Bolt magic. Equip Yang with the Bolt Claw, and have him do Power, that will take off some huge damage. Tellah and Palom should do either Bolt 2 or Bolt 3 each around, while Polom cures, especially after Cagnazzo does his one big attack, the Big Wave. However, as long as you do Bolt magic, it will break his barrier, so don't worry about it. When he goes into his shell, just use that time for curing and stuff. He ain't that bad, trust me. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DARK ELF 23890 HP, 7500 experience, 5000 gil ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The first fight, do nothing. Just don't waste your power doing anything, because he will kill you. Then Edward plays his harp, and the control is broken. In the second battle, have Tellah cast Wall on every member he can, Have everyone attack normally, while Yang does power. Use Diet Food when he casts Pig on you, that's the most annoying attack he does. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DARK DRAGON 3927 HP, 6000 experience, 5000 gil ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This guy is pretty tough. Have Cecil attack, Yang power, Tellah use Level 3 spells or Cure 3 when the enemy does its Breath attack, and that should do it. I died twice, but if you are on Level 30, you should have no problem beating him. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MAGUS SISTERS x3 Sandy: 2591 HP, 3000 gil, 2500 experience Cindy: 4599 HP, 3000 gil, 2500 experience Mindy: 2590 HP, 3000 gil, 2500 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This boss fight is really easy if you know how to handle it. Kill off the middle sister (Cindy) first, since it can heal people. It casts Wall, so don't use magic. Instead, use physical attacks. Once she is dead, kill the one in front (Mindy). Once she succumbs, take out the final sister. Easy enough, just make sure you heal when you have to (I didn't even have to), and the battle is yours. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BARBARICCIA 8636 HP, 5500 gil, 9000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I cannot stress how important patience is in this battle. Do not just hit the attack button when it is your turn to attack. Barbariccia will turn herself into a tornado, and when she does, she will counterattack you with a powerful wind attack which leaves all party members with single digit HP's. To get her out of this state, have Kain jump her. When she is normal, have Cecil and Cid attack, Rosa heal, Kain jump, and Yang use power. This battle wasn't bad, as long as you remember to keep healed, at all times. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3 CAL, 3 BRINA Cal: 1369 HP each, 500 gil each, 1000 experience each Brina: 369 HP each, 500 gil each, 1000 experience each ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have Cecil and Kain take out the Brinas in front while Kain uses Jump and Yang uses Powers to take out the Cals in back. Take out as many as you can, as you gain more experience this way. Have Rosa heal everyone when there is only 1 or 2 enemies left. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALCOBRENA 5315 HP, 5000 gil, 12000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I don't see why this boss is such a big deal. All I did was have Kain Jump, Yang use Power, Rosa use Aim, and Cecil attack normally, and the doll died before I knew it. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GOLBEZ/SHADOW ???? HP, 11,000 gil, 15000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Golbez casts Hold Gas on the entire party, then summons Shadow, who pretty much kills everyone. Bring everyone back to life once the battle starts. This battle is easy since Rydia returns. Have her do Titan, and have Cecil attack, while Kain jumps. Rosa can heal and cure as necessary, while Yang does Power, and this boss will die before you know it. Just make sure to take out your frustrations on Golbez. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DR. LUGAE, BARNABAS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kill Lugae first, and Barnabas will detonate. Parry and then have Rosa heal. Have Rydia summon Titan until Barnabas dies. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BARNABAS 9321 HP, 4000 gil, 10100 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- He will automatically poison everyone, and will keep on poisoning you if you try to heal it. So, just stay poisoned. Have Rosa spend every turn healing, while Kain jumps, Yang Power attacks using the Bolt Claw. Have Rydia cast Bolt 2, and have Rosa chip in with aiming with Bolt arrows when she can. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- KING EBLAN/QUEEN EBLAN ???? HP, 0 gil, 0 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just stay still. They'll wake up soon enough. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RUBICANT 34,000 HP, 7000 gil, 18000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have Rosa cure, Cecil and Kain should have ice weapons, Kain can jump while Cecil does normal attacks. When Rubicant opens his cloak, have Rydia cast Ice 3, and it will do 9999 damage. Edge can do Flood magic when his cloak is open as well, but it does less damage. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ASURA 31005 HP, 0 gil, 20000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cast Wall on Asura to start, so all her recovery spells that she casts on herself will bounce off her and go onto you. Attack her with powerful attacks, summons, etc. Regular attacks would work just fine, but you know. JUmp with Kain, have Cecil do regular attacks, Rosa use Aim, Rydia summon Titan, and Edge attack. No magic should be used on her, because you casted Wall on her, remember? -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LEVIATHAN 50001 HP, 0 gil, 28000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Make sure no one is wearing Ice Armor. Now then, have everyone equipped with bolt weapons, have Rydia cast Bolt 3, Edge should Blitz, and Rosa should heal or Aim with Bolt arrows. Leviatan does the majorly awesome attack called Big Wave, which causes a lot of damage to every character. Just have Rosa heal, and attack as normal, and you are good to go. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DEMON WALL 28000 HP, 8000 gil, 23000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Make sure you have Leviathan before fighting this guy. You have to kill him before he crushes you to death. First, have Rosa cast Slow on the Evil Wall, so it moves slower. Kain and Cecil should just attack normally. Do not have Kain Jump. Rydia should summon Leviatan, while Edge throws Shruikens and Fuma Shurikens. He should die before he gets to crush anyone, but once he gets to, he'll crush everyone really quickly. Fun. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BAHAMUT 45001 HP, 0 gil, 35000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have every character use Moon Veils or Star Veils, while Rosa casts Wall. If 4 characters got Wall off, you should have no problem. Just keep Wall up and his attack will hit him for 9999 damage. Bring characters back to Life using Life potions then have Rosa cast Wall on them. As long as you keep Wall up, he's no problem. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOUR FIENDS 28000 HP each, 10000 gil, 62500 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For a battle this late, it should not be this easy. Cast Fire 3 against 1st one, Bolt 3 against the next 2, and cast Ice 3 against the last one. Cure as needed, and you are good to go. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CPU, ATTACKER, DEFENDER CPU: 30000 HP, 10333 gil, 50000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kill the Defender (bottom) orb first, then go for the CPU itself. Do not kill both orbs. Follow this, cure as needed, and you won't die. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ODIN 20001 HP, 0 gil, 18000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rydia uses Bolt 3, Kain Jumps, Cecil attacks, Rosa uses Bolt arrows, and Edge uses Blitz. He should die before he gets a chance to kill you. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WHITE DRAGON 32700 HP, 0 gil, 55000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you cast Float before the battle on the entire party, the Gaia Rage attack this guy will throw at you will be largely ineffective. Have Rydia summon Bahamut, Rosa cast Cure 4 EVERY round, because the White Dragon does this storm attack which takes everyone down to 10 HP or less, and that's not a very good thing, and he can pull it off at any time, so just have Rosa cast Cure 4 on everyone, so it'll heal the effects. Cecil and Kain should attack normally, by the way. You win this battle, you get Edge's Murasame. Cool. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DARK BAHAMUT 60000 HP, 0 gil, 64000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I had a pretty easy time beating this boss, since its Megafire attack only killed one person (Rydia), and didn't cast Megafire again, only Megaflare on one character, which pretty much killed it. Use up all your Starveils and Moonveils, have everyone attack, Rosa use Wall, Life 2, and Cure 4, and have Rydia summon Bahamut while Edge throws stuff. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PLAGUE 33333 HP, 550 gil, 31108 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kill off everyone except Cecil before the battle starts. Plague will cast Doom on Cecil. Have Cecil attack, and on his next turn, give Rydia a life potion. Plague will cast Doom on Cecil and Rydia, restarting the countdown. Have her cast Bahamut, and Cecil attack. Next turn, have Rydia give Kain a life potion. Plague will cast Doom on the 3 characters. Have Cecil and Kain attack, while Rydia uses Bahamut again. Next round, have the first character give edge a life potion. Now, he will cast Doom on 4 characters. He should die soon if you have them do normal attacks, he should die after 3 Cecil attacks and 3 Bahamuts. Bring Rosa back quick if you want her to gain the experience. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LUNASAURUS 23000 HP each, 0 gil, 29500 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There are two of them! Kill one first, obviously. They cast Wall on themselves. They do this annoying fire attack, so just kill off one first. Have Rydia summon Bahamut, Rosa use Holy or Cure 4, and everyone else attack like mad. Have Rosa cast Slow on them when their Wall spell goes off for an easier battle. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OGOPOGO 50000 HP each, 0 gil, 61000 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have Rydia summon Bahamut, Rosa cure everyone as needed, Kain should jump to avoid the Big Wave attack, and Cecil should attack. Edge should either throw stuff, or just attack as normally. He will start off the battle doing Big Wave twice, then once, then twice. So Rosa will have to heal like crazy. Have her heal, while everyone does their attacks, and he should die. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ZEROMUS 100000 HP, 0 gil, 0 experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- SUGGESTED LEVELS: Cecil - 76, Rosa - 75, Rydia - 72, Edge - 74, Kain - 78 ^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^-*-^- On the first form, make sure to just parry until Edge steals the Dark Matter. Then have Edge use the Crystal. Now Zeromus' true form will be revealed. Here are his three main attacks. Big Bang - Major damage caused, in the area of 2000 HP, devastating if he does it twice in a row. Black Hole - It removes all your good status magic. Flare - Major damage to one character. He does this as a normal attack. Therefore, do not attack him unless it will be a good attack, because he will usually counterattack with Big Bang, then Black Hole. This is what you should do. Cecil - Attack, and heal as needed. Rosa - Cure 4, Life 2, Shell. Kain - Jump, and heal as needed. Rydia - Bahamut, and heal as needed. Edge - Throw Excalibur, Dragon Lance, etc. and heal as needed. Good luck! Try to be on level 75 before fighting him, but make sure you do not attack him until you are fully cured! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- *--------------*---------------*---------------*---------------*-------------* * 5.0 * APPENDICES * 5.0 * *--------------*---------------*---------------*---------------*-------------* I usually call them lists, but lately I've just been so INNOVATIVE. ;) (-*-) (-*-)(-*-) (-*-)(-*-) (-*-)(-*-) (-*-)(-*-) (-*-)(-*-) (-*-)(-*-) (-*-) ( 5.1 ) ITEMS ( 5.1 ) (-*-) (-*-)(-*-) (-*-)(-*-) (-*-)(-*-) (-*-)(-*-) (-*-)(-*-) (-*-)(-*-) (-*-) Coming soon.

Check them out! In addition on my quest to write for all the Final Fantasy games, I will try to finish my Aria of Sorrow and NCAA 2004 guides, as well as some random NES games (Predator, NOES, Jeopardy Jr., and Puss and Boots, anyone?) and guides for the other 2 Castlevania games that employ the new style. Oh, and I might do a Wild Arms 3 guide. And I still have to finish my ToS and FF7 guides.. And there's always Final Fantasy 12, Grandia 3, and Mega Man X Annivesary Collection to look forward to...
