Tips


link directly to this cheat [survival tip] Buff yourself at save points

At save points your HP/MP are restored to full. If you have green magicks and any other buffs (protect, shell, libra, etc), use them on all party members when you're near a save point. As soon as all members have been buffed, save. (The game saves your status)

You'll get your MP back for all characters, and save with your buffs at max strength (timer-wise). If you die and reload the game, you'll start with the buffs again at max strength! Also helpful as heck if you're about to get into a boss fight.


link directly to this cheat A Counter for Reflection

Tired of magic bouncing off enemies with reflect on them? Just equip the opal ring (purchase from stranded merchant in Old Archades or Balfonheim Port for 16000 gil) and the reflect will be the magic you cast will not be affected by the reflect. It also works on your allies too.


link directly to this cheat Adrammelech Esper

Go to the Zertinan Cavern, which can be reached through Nam-Yensa Sandsea, Ogir-Yensa Sandsea, Ozmone Plains, or Dalmasca Westsand. Go to the center of it, it's an area called Asroza Sandflow, this area is best accessed through the Dalmasca Westersand because there is a save point in the way, there you will encounter Adrammelech as a boss. Defeat it to obtain him as a esper.


link directly to this cheat Ageworn Key

To those who doesn't know what this key is for, this is the key to open the door where the Hell Wyvern lies.

To get this, find the Wyrm Philosopher at Windmill 10, who is seeking the Vyraal Wyrm. Give him the Dragon Scale from the Vyraal Wyrm (which you can find here after finishing the "Get My STuff Back!" Hunt) and he provides an Ageworn Key, which is part of the Wvrm Philosopher side quest.


link directly to this cheat Avoiding Zodiark's Darkja

Just before he uses Darkja (noticeable on the battle log) have one charcter use quickenign as musch as possible. At the right timing, after Zodiark uses Darkja, it will be negated and your quickening would follow.

another good thing about cerobi steppe is that you cna get adamantite from adamantitans for ultima blade , do the fishing sidequest while training and start the hell wyrm sidequest

i also gain about 20000-80000gil per load


link directly to this cheat Bad Statuses

Instead of casting all those magic like Slow,Disease,Oil etc,equip the Nihopoloa(or something like that* and toss a Remedy on the enemy.The item just now will reverse your Healing Item's effect,meaning instead of healing bad statuses,it GIVES bad statuses.One thing-don't forget you're equipping the item before you use a poition or something on your allies,it'll damage them

  • link directly to this cheat Barheim Key Sidequest

    After events in Barheim Passage, you can return to this from other entrance in
    Dalmasca Eastersand. The reason to do this is to get an optional esper and some hunt marks.

    1) Complete the hunt mark Cactuar flower and hunt mark Niddhog

    2) After you get your reward from Dantro (the cactuar flower hunt mark petitioner) talk with him again

    3) Go to the south of Nebra river and talk with Dantro's wife

    4) Leave the screen and re-enter, talk with the boy named Chiguri

    5) He'll take you to the north of the river, there some events will take place

    6) Once you are back to the south side, talk with Dantro's wife, then search behind her house for a red flower, examine it, now a catuar will follow you, take it to Chiguri

    7) After some scenes, talk with Dantro's wife again, she'll ask some items, the first one is in the left side near the river (it's a shining object), talk again with her, for the second item go back to Dantro's campment talk with him and examine the boxes and some jars in the center of the screen. Now return to Dantro's wife, it's time to get the final item, you to Brokensands screen in esaternsands. The item is in the middle of the screen next to a withered rock.

    8) Give Dantro's wife the final item and the Python's Scaled Skin that you got from Niddhog, leave and re-enter the screen, talk with Dantro's wife and then go to the back of her house and talk with the traveller to receive the Barheim key!


    link directly to this cheat Beating Hell Wyrm

    Ok..
    for this i used the three tanks: Vaan, Basch and Balthier

    vaan: Excalibur(since he was my strongest)
    Basche: Ultima Blade
    Balthier: Ultima Blade

    Gambit setup:

    Vaan:
    ally:any- Arise
    Ally:Hp<50%- Curaga
    Ally:any- Esuna
    Ally:status=stop- chronos tear
    Ally:Vaan- Haste
    Foe:nearest- Attack

    Balthier:
    Ally:any- arise
    Ally: Hp<60%- Curaga
    Ally: status=stop- Chronos tear
    Ally:any- protectga
    Ally: Balthier- Haste
    Ally: Balther- Bravery
    Ally: Mp<10%- Hi-ether
    Foe: nearest- attack

    Basch:
    Ally:and- arise
    Ally: Hp<60%- curaga
    Ally:status=stop- chronos tear
    ally:any- esuna
    Ally: basch- haste
    Ally: basch- brabery
    Foe:nearest- attack

    I beat the guy in less than 15 min
    for this u cant jus leave gambits to do all the work. since i don't know how to setup the gambits for a Renew, once in a while wen he used his strongest attack which does alot of damage and causes stop, i had to manually choose the commands according to the situation. so if all the characters had low Hp: i used renew first then chronos tear. equip bubble belt, an aromor with strong defence, and a headgear with strong magic defence. u can swithch between element absorbing headgear if u want. My leader was Vaan and i always kept him moving around.


    link directly to this cheat Boss level

    its annoying when a boss stops you using libra isn't it?
    Well here is how you can figure out roughly what level the boss you are about to fight is:
    Use libra on the enimies near by the boss fight (if any) the boss is usually for 2 levels above that level

    p.s: it doesn't work for bosses with no enimies nearby the battle location


    link directly to this cheat Brave Suit

    Brave Suit is the best light armor you can get in the game plus the perma-Bravery.

    You can get this armor from:

    1. Getting it from a chest on the northwestern area of the third upper layer of the Great Crystal. If you already have a Zodiac Escutcheon, it will not show up.

    2. Getting it from a chest in the Phase 2 Dig of the Henne Mines while using a Diamond Armlet.

    3. Getting it from a chest in the Special Charter Shaft of the Henne Mines.


    link directly to this cheat Buffing espers

    Just like with characters, you can use support magic on espers, doing this will make them more useful during battles, because it will help them to do more damage to enemies (bravery and faith magic) resist more hits (protect and shell) or attack faster (haste). Unfortunately summoning an esper already takes quite some MP, so it's a good idea to summon your esper and buff it near a saving crystal, so that you touch it after casting all the spell you wanted to and regain your whole MP.


    link directly to this cheat Chaining Teleporting Monster Trick

    This trick can get u a chain for Helvineks for Grand Armor(other wise impossible) and other teleporting monsters.

    When you kill a teleporting monster their dying animation takes longer than a regular one. Before they actually die and EXP and LP numbers show, you can respawn them again if u leave the zone ur in before the dying animation is over. You will get yet another spawn in the original zone if u do it correctly.

    It is a little hard to grab their loot and leave the zone in about 1 or 2 seconds. Their falling body can block your access to the loot. Approach them from their side and grab the loot. You should be able to take the loot and leave before the animation is over.

    This trick works for only teleporting monsters that shows colorful illusions before materializing.


    link directly to this cheat chains tips

    this will help you to not loose your enemies chain.

    1- dont enter to any city/town/village.
    2- do not touch any save crystal.
    3- dont kill any other kind of enemies.
    4- turn your atack gambits off.


    link directly to this cheat Chaos Esper

    I first must warn you that getting this esper is quite a long and a little hard side-quest.

    Before being able to fight Chaos you'll have to get 4 fragments:

    Clear the following mob hunt marks: Wraith ,White Moose and Orthros, by clearing the last one you'll get your first fragment.

    Go back to Garamsythe Waterway there you'll have to activate the following swithches, first turn all of them off, now activate the 11th and 4th , now deactivate the 11th and activate the 3rd, finally deactivate the 4th, go south of the same screen you are and you'll find a shining object, the second fragment

    For the last fragment go to Nabreus deadlands, there talk with Ma'kleou, he'll tell you he's waiting for his two disciples, now it's time to find those 2 guys. Go to Rabanastre lowtown, to Dalan's house there talk with the disciple he'll explain you the situation, no go to the vacant house and read the letter (NOTE: You've already done what this letter tells you to do, but you still need to read it). The following step is to talk with Filo in the South Sprawl of Lowtown, after doing so go to the streets of Rabanastre. Talk with a woman that standing watching the fountain, next talk with a merchant in the bazaar you will tell you that he sold the necklace to an Imperial, this imperial is in the magic shop, choose the option 1 option twice. Back to lowtown speak with Filo again, now go and talk with the imperial again, you'll receive the third fragment.
    Go to the disciple in Dalan's house and give him the 3 fragments you've got, he'll dissppear.

    Teleport to Archades, into the magic shop there talk with the other Ma'kleou's disciple, now go to Old Archades west section and talk with Otto. Return with the medallion to the disciple.

    Go to Nabreus deadlands. Talk with Ma'kleou, now go to the screen called the Slumbermead, there go to the north west part of the screen where you'll find a hidden path, follow it. When you reach a shrine a cut-scene will play after that you'll receive all the 3 medallions.

    Finally the last part of this side-quest: Now move to Necrohol Of Nabudis there you'll have to open 3 doors and fight 3 bosses, first go to the screen called Hall of the Ivory Convenant and open the Loathing door using the Love medallion, inside this room you'll have to fight Fury. The next door is in the screen called Cloister of the Distant Song open the door of horrors with the Medallion of bravery, inside you'll fight with Humbaba Mistant. Now your medallion of might will be usable, go to the screen called Clositer of the Highborn, open the door of the despair with the medallion of might and finally fight the Chaos as a boss fight. In this battle the command "Attack" will be sealed. So be sure of having your MP at max, because magic and mist is all you'll be able to use to kill this guy. Be sure of using non-elemental magic to damage him, if you don't do this you'll just heal him.
    After you defeat him, you'll receive the Chaos esper.

    link directly to this cheat Cúchulainn Esper

    First you must have completed the mob hunt marks Wraith and White Moosse.
    With the waterway key in your hands go back to Garamsythe Waterway. In the control area with the save crystal activate the switch on 3rd and 10th Area Panel. Now go to the screen called Cloaca Nº3, there activate a 1st switch of the area panel. Then, go back to the control area, there deactivate the 3rd and 10th switch and activate the 4th and 11th. What you need to do now is to go to the screen called Cloaca Nº4 where you'll find another 1st switch, activate and go back to the central control area, deactivate the 11th switch and active the 3rd switch, now save and proceed south to face this esper.
    The battle can be quite hard, because he'll summon a field that makes your characters HP to reduce quickly until it depletes completely, not only that but some flans will join to battle.
    I recommend you to heal constantly and make long quickenings combos.
    After defeating it, you'll receive the Cúchulainn esper.


    link directly to this cheat Dark Matter

    Shemhazai's Devour Soul adds to Dark Matter just like Knots of rust do and vice versa. Every time you use Soul Purge it resets both Soul Purge and Dark Matter to zero. Same with Dark Matter....use it and you reset both Dark Matter and Soul Purge.

    If you want to charge Dark Matter but are short of knots of rust then just use Shemhazai and Devour Soul and dismiss it before it uses Soul Purge.


    link directly to this cheat Deathgaze

    Here's how to get Deathgaze to appear:

    It originally appears on the airship with a 4% chance. After getting off an airship, talk to the Traveller and the chances will double to 8%. Do it again, and it will become 16%. Keep repeating this method for 2 more times and it will stop at 64%. That way, the chances of Deathgaze appearing will become higher.

    There is a small chance, however, that you may encounter Deathgaze on your first try. That's because you were lucky that you hit a 4% chance.

    link directly to this cheat Dustia's power lvling tip

    This "tip" is great to Lvl up real fast at the beginning of the game, works a lot if you doing NLB "No license board" challenge, it's faster than the Werewolfs method.

    What you have to do is first get some phoenix down "you'll have to steal or kill some monsters first to get Gils for the phoenix downs" so be patient.

    You can buy Phoenix downs in Rabanstre after Penelo leaves, but if you want to do it earlier "before Dalans" you can buy some from the "Unlucky Mechant" in the South bank "Estersands" or from the merchant in "Westersands, before reaching Orin-Yensa"
    After that go to Dalmasca's Westesands and head to the North-east area of the map named "Corridor of sand", before entering make sure that your HP is Critical "10% of your max HP" why? because you can find an undead rare game called "Dustia" that way, go to configuration screen an set the battle to wait mode-lowest speed and cursor to "last-selection" that way you don't get tired of selecting item-phoenix down, why lowest speed battle? because Dustia don't have time to charge dark if you set the speed the lowest possible.

    "If you phoenix down an undead enemy they will die in one hit"
    "To trow an items to the enemy R1 or L1 when you see the opponent HP bar"

    Each kill give you 1100 Exp, plus 3 LP's, make sure to re-zone before the EXP-LP show up that way you can chain Duria "that method works with all the teleporting monsters" this help to get a great percentage of loots to sell, so you will not be worry about Gils anymore to get new phoenix downs.

    Loots:

    "Orgain Book" sells for: 500-600 Gils
    Rare drop: "Flame Staff" sells for: 1000-1500 Gils

    Happy gaming and enjoy.


    link directly to this cheat Earliest Full-Licensed Board

    Having trouble with License Board? Indecisive of what should be learned now or later? Wash your troubles away! Learn ALL of it in the first place!
    After completing the Rogue Tomato Hunt, have Vaan only go to Giza Plains and farm some wolf pelts. Get 99 of Wolf pelts and sell it for small cash. Invest the money to buy Phoenix Downs from either Nalbina Seeq Merchant or Westernsand Hume Merchant. Upon getting the items, head to the Westernsand Corridor of Sand. Hurt yourself until 10% max hp remains to spawn Dustia rare game. Make sure battle speed set to lowest and toss a phoenix down when Dustia's hp bar appear. Rezone the area before EXP/LP appear for 'respawn trick'. Get the loot and sell it for further funds in Phoenix Downs. Repeat the process until you get enough LP to learn everything.
    It's estimated around 15,000 LP, player can learn everything including Mist & Esper. So the math is:

    15,000/3=5,000 Dustia kill

    For health safety, it's advisable to divide it into days and sessions to complete this goal. For instance:

    5,000/2Days=2,500 Dustia kill perday
    2,500/2sessions=1,250 Dustia kill per session in 1 day(Morning,Afternoon,Evening,Night)

    Upon learning everything, all characters can use and equip everything / anything in acquisition with leisure since the LP is shared. (A little tip: Save the game in 1 independent save files upon getting 15,000 LP so player can immediately restart/replay the game with full-licensed board in future!)

    To do you mist be on level 35 or higher.After tomb of Raithwall. go to the entrance of Mosphoran Highwaste.Borrow a chocobo go to the gaurds they will run away and you can to Mosphoran Highwaste


    link directly to this cheat Easy Beating Mimic Queen

    I found this out entirely by accident but it helps to know it. After you get Basch, you should have to fight off what are called "Battery Mimics". Don't use thunder on them, it heals them, instead I found that a single blizzard takes out about a a fourth or a half of their health, if you have the spell blizzard, buy black magic 1 for Fran, Balthier, and Vaan, you won't be able to do so for Basch since he's a guest.

    why have three mages? this will royally own the boss, I used two people at the first time and got the queen to 1 hit left before being wiped out.

    If you scoured every chest, you should have about 2 ethers (I did) and a horde of pheonix down and potions. after meeting the queen, let Basch slice away at her but have everyone in the party mass blizzard her, a single use of three blizzards takes out a pretty hefty portion of her life, I beat her in about 3-7 minutes with this stratagy. I of course had to use both my precious ether to replenish two of my character's magic and had to use the last wizard to use potions cause at the point of using the ether, the queen will start using spells that use cinematic which damage the entire party.


    link directly to this cheat Easy Boss Battles

    Cast bezerk, bravery, haste, on your tank, and equip him with speed gear, and the genji gloves / bubble belt.

    Have your casters focus on keeping the tanked buffed and everyone alive and full of hp. Spare no MP. Consider all spell NO MP cost at this point.

    When your casters start running low on MP have them cast syphon on the tank, who should be able to regerate 999 mp in about 30 seconds.

    With this method, you can make short work of many of the "impossible" bosses of this game. like Hell wyrm or zodiark.


    link directly to this cheat Easy EXP and Easy LP

    When you go into the Ozmone Plain after going to Raithwall's tomb, head east a little to a place claled the Field of Light Winds.

    Here, you'll have 3 werewolves, and 3 black chocobos which will give you about 2200 exp per run and 9 LP. Now the fun part is go even more east. You'll get to a place with a save point and a random kid who's tending to an injured hunter. Go even more east till you eat the Golmore Jungle, you're not supposed to go there yet but do it anyway. Enemies here all give 300-400 exp. There are a lot of enemies in the entrance. Just stay near the entrance area, and make your rounds killing all the enemies. You should easily rack up 8000-10000 exp from doing this. Then go back to the save point and go into the field of light winds again, and just go back and forth. There's a save point too so you'll never be short for life. Equip the golden amulet and double your LP!!

    I got from l23 to l30 in 40 minutes!


    link directly to this cheat Easy Garuda Battle (spoilers)

    Whenever you get to the part of the story where yuo have to go to the Tomb of King Raithwall, before you can go into tghe tomb, you have to battle the Garuda. Earlier in the Urutan-Yensa sandsea save area there is a moogle talking to a Urutan. walk up and talk to the moogle. he says that the Uratan was asking for help, that there is a giant beast killing the Urutan. go off in the direction of the Urutan for about 2 areas, and you'll see them fighting a giant turtle. help kill the turtle and then go back and tlak to the moogle. he said that the Urutan that asked for help went into the other sandsea (the one you originally started in). go back into the sandsea for a little ways and you'll see a short scene, go back to the moogle to see the Urutan that asked for help be completely disintegrated by the Urutan queen. where his body was is a peck of flowers, these flowers have berries growing from them. pick those berries and continue to the Tomb. at the tomb when the fight witht the Garuda initiates use the berries on the Garuda. this will take about 20% of his life. then use the biggest quickening chain you can. after that constantly use water spells on the Garuda. he should be dead in a very short round of turns.

    link directly to this cheat Easy Gil & Levels - Golmore Jungle

    This is best done after you receive Larsa, but before entering the Henne Mines. First, save your game in the Sunlit Path. Now enter Golmore Jungle. You will run into a ton of Panthers here. Set someone up to Steal like crazy (I personally use Balthier). Work your way down both the east and west paths killing panthers, but watch out at the ends where the paths split off. One end has a blue dog at it, and one has a Marlboro. Do not kill either one. Now turn around, go back to the Sunlit Path. DO NOT SAVE. Run straight through into the Field of Light Winds, turn around and return to Golmore Jungle. The panthers will have respawned. Do this five or six times until you have a chain of 99. By this time, you should have gained 2-4 levels (keep switching out characters if you want to level up a bunch of them), gained a ton of LP, and have 99 Coerl Pelts. Go ahead and head through fully to Eruyt, and sell those skins. You should have made around 50,000 gil with all the rest of the junk you picked up! Do this as many times as you want, though just by doing it once I had enough gil to easily buy all the items I wanted before heading to the Henne Mines, and levelled up to a respectable level.

    link directly to this cheat EASY Gil, Exp, and Lp for Levels 15-25

    If you're broke and need money, Exp, and Lp before the Henne mines, go back to the Lhusu mines and in the last 2 areas, only the undead appear and you can chain them easily! The second to last area is on a bridge where the undead appear from the ground. take the top rout and not the side, there is a bat there and it will ruin your chain. After all of the zombies have been slain, go into the next area. Explore and kill everything in sight. By now, the zombies are very easy to kill plus Larsa is there to help you too. You can go back and fourth through the areas and get a boatload of bone fragments that can be sold for over 150 gil and dark stones that can be sold for about 35. When I did this, I got a chain of over 150 and it only took about 15-25 minutes and I got 99 bone fragments and dark stones. Also, everybody went up about 2 levels in that short of a time. If you want to get some of the best weapons, spells, etc. try this! I started at level 18-19, 50 Lp, and 500 gil, and now I'm at level 22-23, I have over 300 Lp, and about 36,000 gil.

    link directly to this cheat Easy leveling after lvl 50

    First, go to the Nabreus Deadlands, and take the secret path in the northwest of The Slumbermead to get to The Fog Mutters, and then Overlooking Eternity. Upon entering Overlooking Eternity switch to only one party member (I started this with my lvl 52 Penelo) and have the following Gambits:

    Self: Bubble
    Self: Protect
    Self: Regen
    Self: Faith
    Self: Bravery
    Ally: HP<40% Curaja
    The rest of your gambits do not matter.

    Then, make sure you have your character equipped with very strong armor (I have Magepower Shishak and Maximillian), along with an embroidered Tippet and a Holy Lance.

    In Overlooking Eternity, only Dead Bones show up and each one gives a little over 4,800 exp. So, if you've been having trouble getting Montblanc for your Sky Pirates Den, this is also an easy way to get it. If you're level is on the lower end of the spectrum (lvl 50 - 55) You're going to want to make sure you only have 1 or 2 dead bones attacking at a time. If 3 or more start to attack, use a curaja spell and it should knock them down 1/3 - 1/2 hp. Your gambits will keep you buffed, so just watch your character. Over a short period of time, your character's level will grow quite rapidly. I used this technique for about 2 - 3 hours and my Penelo went from level 52 to 62. Holy also works well against the Dead bones, but you can only target one at a time with Holy, so be careful. ALSO, after casting curaja or holy on them, they like to use reflectga. DO NOT USE MAGIC ON THEM. A holy attack reflected at you REALLY sucks.

    Anyway, the Holy lance should help take down the dead bones in 2-4 hits. And the dead bones respawn, so unless you want a lot of dead bones, you can stay in the area, and not worry!

    7.Ally:Status=Silence Echo Herbs
    8.Foe:Lowest HP Attack

    Area: Lhusu Mines / Site 5 and Site 6 South

    Requirements: Must have completed Hunt 38: Antlion Infestation, and gotten the dropped Site 11 key from next to the Fallen Bhujerban on the west side of the Hunters Camp in the Phon Coast. Being able to defeat up to level 61 Dark Lords without much trouble would be VERY handy.

    Enemies once you get there or on your way there:
    Vampyr Level 43 Weak to: Holy Element
    Killer Mantis Level 44 Weak to: Wind Element
    Abysteel Level 58 Weak to: Holy Element
    Dark Lord Level 61 Weak to: Holy Element

    Strategy / what to do: Basically, all you have to do is kill the Dark Lords. They give roughly 2,100 to 2,300 EXP, which is around 4,200 to 4,600 Exp with an Embroidered Tippet. Many Abysteels also infest the area, which are worth around 1,000 EXP each, which are 2,000 EXP with an Embroidered Tippet. A weapon with the Holy element would be greatly helpful, but a strong one will do as well.I have also done some testing, and the enemies cant be one hit killed with phoenix downs. When I started doing this, my lowest levels were level 48, but they were well equipped, with Holy Lance, Masamune, and Excalibur. Theres a close save point south of Site 6 South. Use this to save, heal, or rebuff if you need to. While using my method, I got 3 people from level 58 to 64 in like, 30 minutes with an Embroidered Tippet.

    Go to the Lhusu Mines in Bhujerba.Once you enter the mines proceed through the first and second (maybe even the third) areas killing only Skeletons and Skull Defenders.At the next areas you will only find the mentioned monsters so you can do a 100-chain quite easily (for your convinience,go there some time AFTER the storyline scenario).The best is yet to come, once you have made a reasonably big chain you will start getting 3 Bone Fragments per kill(not to mention stealing them).If you follow the aforementioned strategy you can get 99 Bone Fragments in less than 10 minutes.Each one sells for 193 gil at any shop. You can do this at any place that has undead enemies (like the King-Dynast's tomb etc...) but I recommend the mines(since there are the weakest undead enemies so it would take less time(99 Bone Fragments sell for 19107 gil).This is a very useful strategy earlier in the game because you get a lot of lp (license points) and gil(money in FF) to back them up.

    To get this holy elemental Two Handed Sword you must first have finished the events at The Great Crystal completely. After doing so go back inside this dungeon until you reach The Great Crystal – A Prama Vikaari again (the first screen). You are currently in platform VIII from there they are 3 routes one is up, one is down and another is sealed by Gate Scorpio. Go up, press the switch and return to platform VIII. There follow the just unsealed path up. You'll reach platform IX, use the way stone to reach platform X. From platform X follow the only path until you get to XX platform. XX platform has two sealed Gate Sagittarius, one way down, two ways up, another way is where you come from. Go in the opposite direction of where you came from (which leads you down) continue a couple of screens and you'll find a switch, press it and return to XX before the time runs out. In XX unseal Gate Sagittarius 2, not 1. Follow the new path and you'll find yourself in platform XII, use the way stone to get to XIV platform, there go the way that goes up, press the switch in the next screen and return to platform XIV before the time runs out. There go the way down, keep going the only path through some platforms until third platform where they are two paths take the one that goes down.
    If you have done the steps above correctly you'll find yourself in a screen with one horse type enemy and a chest, as soon as you go to the center of the platform two more horse type enemies will appear. Get rid of them and cast float because there is a trap just below of the chest, be sure to equip the Diamond armlet, because it really helps. Now open the chest you can get gil, a sage ring or gil+Excalibur, how is that possible? When you first examine it the message will tell you you got gil, but the chest won't disappear, check it again and the Excalibur is all yours.
    If you couldn't get it in your first try, don't worry, just go back 3 screens and the chest will re-spawn.
    NOTE: You CANNOT get more than 1 Excalibur.

Take a left turn at the Save Crystal to find the Aquarius Gate Stone (1). Backtrack to the previous section and open Gate Aquarius 1 (2), so the path to the Taurus Gate Stone (5) is open. Forget the Taurus Gate Stone for now and go to the nearby Capricorn Gate Stone (3). Flip the switch and run across the area to Gate Capricorn 2 (4). Backtrack to the Taurus Gate Stone (5) and use the switch. Cross the area again passing through Gate Capricorn 2 to reach Gate Taurus 1 (6). The road beyond Taurus 1 leads to Omega Mark XII.

SSADLNIAKLADHAUETDNREA this means start at S and skip between letters like S then A then L and will inventually spell Salika Hut Near Deadlands.Go to the centre of Piebald Path and in one hut.Red Bottle Clue: Foothills rise in mountains' shadow. NhIiQsTUrEe this on ehas the capitals scrambled in to a word and the lowercase scrambled into a word. It makes QUIET shrine. Go the the north-west part of the babbling vale to find the message. Yellow Bottle Clue: Dragons stir among the eaters of the wind. 1 2 - - 5 - 7 - 9 - means in the windmills in Cerobi Steppe. The windmills have numbers on them reffering to the message. Go turn on numbers 12579
    and turn off the other numbers as well as the blanks. Black Bottle Clue: Easy as a, b, c, so count yourself lucky.
    19-12-21-9-3-5-7-1-20-5-18-1-20-19 this means write down the letters of the alphabet and reffer them to the numbers. They spell SULICE GATE RATS. Look for the rats scurring around the south of the room and follow them to a shiny object which is the last message. River...unde...o
    Forest...rgro...w Fire...undb...h
    Ash...ridg...e Darkness...eton..e The first five words can be used to determine order, since they're complete, and ultimately unrelated to the location clue. Now a River flows through the Forest, which catches Fire, leaving behind only Ash and DarknessNow then, arranging the messages in that order to connect the middle, then end portions of the clues leaves you with the following:unde/rgro/undb/ridg/eton followed by o/w/h/e/e. This last part is missing a letter, which makes it a little cryptic, but if you put it all together, you should end up with the clue underground bridge to no where. Now
    where have you seen a bridge underground the doesn't really go anywhere? But of course, Barheim Passage. Head into Barheim, following the same path you did to reach Zalera. When you reach the end of the Zeviah Span, go ahead into West Annex, then stop immediately. If you look on your map there is a little section of Zeviah Span that can only be reached by going into West Annex. So hang a U-turn, but make sure you're going into the area slightly to your left, back on the main part of the bridge and not the part you just left. Now simply approach the rubble at the far end and watch the magic happen. Now you know why you had to beat Gilgamesh first.With the Matamune safely in hand, head back to the Estersand and Ruksel. Select the Upstream area and start fishing up a storm. After what sometimes seemed like an eternity and innumerable perfects, you are finally rewarded with the Cactoid Compact. This item allows you to access the Hidden Shoals
    area, and you're now only one step from the big one. Hidden Shoals
    The commands here aren't all that different from those of upstream (in fact, some are the same). What makes it more difficult in my opinion is
    the appearance of an additional cactoid each time you input a command correctly. These things will always be in the corner of your vision, and will
    distract and annoy the crap out of you. Once you learn to ignore them though, the area is pretty easy, and you simply have to keep getting perfects until you receive the Cactoid Commendation. This bad boy opens up the Den of the River Lord.
    Den of the River Lord This is it. The fish depicted in every drunken fishing story since the beginning of time. The King of Nebra has an eight-button long command that is difficult to complete when it appears side to side, and nearly impossible from the top or bottom. In addition to this, you have to catch him nine times before you can land him and reap your well-earned reward. However, the upswing of this is that you don't have to catch him in one trip, or even get all nine in a row. Also, in my game his command has always been the only one to appear until I get him for the ninth time, so at least I know what's coming. I'll go ahead and post his command, since it's better to just memorize and practice putting it in quickly. When you finally do land him, you get the Lu Shang's Badge, the ultimate reward for this lengthy side quest.

    As far as I know the only way to get genji is this and I have tested it and got the shield and gloves.
    -----------------------------------
    REQUIREMENTS
    -----------------------------------
    1) Killed Antlion Mob Hunt
    2) Have Thief Cuffs
    3) Good Armour And Lvl To Survive
    4) MUST NOT HAVE ALREADY DEFEATED GILGAMESH!
    5) Consistancy And Endurance

    ------------------------------------

    The way you get this great armour is when your fighting gilgamesh. When you enter the first fight steal from him and you may recieve genji gloves or shield. If you didn't get them don't worry.After each cutscene you are allowed to steal once more. You may also want to steal from enkidu for beastlord horns to make a sagitarius bow.In the first gilgamesh fight on the bridge you can obtain genji shield and gloves from him.

    For those of you who do not know how to get into the deeper parts of the lhusu mines where you fight gilgamesh the secret is when you beat the antlion the girl says the key they lost will wash up on a shore so go to the phon coast hunters lodge and go to the north west area where a man is lying down next to his friend. next to him will be a glint of light (the key to go deeper into the mines)

    When fighting him the second time make sure you are ready for a long fight if you are low level.He uses a lot of status effects so make sure someone is set to esuna or something. Do the same as you did last time and now you should recieve genji armour and helm.

    Also after this long fight you recieve masamune which is a 93 attack katana.It will also allow you to finish the fishing minigame. The genji glove's special for anyone who is wondering is that you deal combos much more often. I gave my genji gloves to vaan who weilds my zodiac spear =P

    link directly to this cheat gilgamesh swords

    During the fight with Gilgamesh (the rank VII mark given to you by Montblanc named "Ancient Mystery Man"), he will pull out various swords that are from previous Final Fantasy games. Since Gilgamesh has eight arms, he holds them all at once. The most famous swords include Cloud's Buster Sword, Squall's Gunblade, Tidus' Brotherhood, and Sephiroth's Masamune. For some reason, all of these swords have some alterations to their previous forms. For example, Cloud's Buster Sword has a huge Japanese symbol on it. Tidus' Brotherhood has a hook at the end of the blade on both sides instead of just the bladed part. It is possible the swords are alterations because after Gilgamesh is defeated, in the Bestiary it states that it is not proven that all of the swords Gilgamesh owns are authentic.

    After doing the antilion hunt you may be as lucky to find the gun "fomalhaut" in the chest at antilions location.

    If you where as lucky as obtaining the "wyrmfire shot" ammo which is attack power+3 and element fire then you can deal some heavy damage.

    I did around 3-4K worth of damage with a normal attack. Then if you set your gunners gambit to (you may want to set healing attacks before these in case you use your gunner as healer to)

    "1. Foe: Status - Oil -> Fire"
    then
    "2. Foe: Any -> Oil"

    As long as the enemy does not absorb fire (like the bombs do), you can deal something of 9K worth of damage.

    (You may also want to get fire arrows. or a fire sword with the element of fire)

    link directly to this cheat Handaxe early on to defeat judge ghis

    If you don't mind axes then you can get any amount of handaxes you want on the leviathon. Cos they have an attack power of 47 and are 1 handed they are probably the best weapon you can have at this time without the fuss o going to bazaar. The second easy to obtain one is javelin which is 2 handed with an attak power of 30. The handaxe is in a chest on the leviathon to the right of where you come in at the beginning. If you go you will see an area where there are two paths next to each other. One is straight and short cos there's a dead end and the other is curved and slightly longer. I believe there is a square shaped area near it and it is south of the first area you are in. From my experience the chest always contains a handaxe and you can go 3 zones away and come back to get another. If this is too much for you to do you can easily get two without diverting your course too much. Simply get one before setting out to get ashe and then get the other before you fight judge ghis.
    Hope this helps if you are stuck there. However, it is easier to kill him if your characters have quickenings. I believe a three chain of level one quickenings resulting in the concurrence inferno will kill him straight away. I got an eight chain with level ones. If your characters have one quickening they are more likely to get the option mist charge than if they have two or three so it is quite easy to create a quite long chain early in the game.

There should be a Pandora (looks like a very colorful treasure chest...but i don't suggest trying to open it.) just sitting by the wall. Head left of it until you see the action command pop up, and hit "X". The baknamy will come out from the hole in the wall and there you go, you have your hidden shop. He carries items depending on where you are in the game. If you're early in the game and you found him, he will only carry ether's (note: after obtaining the treaty blade, he won't sell these again until after you complete the Pharos), but later on he will carry all sorts of stuff like Demon shields and other armors, as well as Telekinesis.

    link directly to this cheat Keep your levels the same + good stratgy

    When playing a game you tend to use your favourite characters the most for example if your a girl you'd probably use Fran and Ashe. but then the characters that you don't use eventually end up with seriously low levels. so early in the game work out yourself a routine, of gambits and characters. like so:

    Vaan + Baltier
    Fran + Basch
    Ashe + Penelo

    Vaan - Back-up medic
    Balthier - Intelligence Handler / looter
    Fran - Back-up Medic / support
    Basch - Warrior + support medic
    Ashe - Warrior
    Penelo - Field medic

    use what ever characters you like. but the pairings at the start can never be on the team together at the same time. (unless you don't have any other characters to put in instead). also make sure one member on your team (at least) has Libra activated. I personally use Penelo, basch and Balthier. make sure you have someone on the current team that heals. if you don't you'll just die.
    make sure you have plenty of phoenix downs and potions. if you have a guest on your team (e.g Larsa) then make good use of them while they last by going off hunting/training then. TIP - if you have a low lvl person you want to train up real fast, then go to a tough area and have one or two strong characters on the same team as a weak one. and watch the levels rise!

    This is the easiest way to kill Zaleara, in-fact when I tried it I didn't even have to use the controller well only to change my leader when she died… poor Ashe…

    Set up your gambit like this

    1 target all allies – raise (Keep as many alive as possible)
    2 target all allies – faith (Must)
    3 target all allies – shell (may stop those deaths)
    4 target all allies – esuna (didn't even use it)
    5 target all allies – haste (need all the speed u can get to buff and revive between death)
    6 target enemy with lowest max hp – curaga (just in case bones pop out)

    Start with using dispel to take away the reflect then a nihopalaoa + remedy to cast slow and blind. With faith my curagas does about 1500 at and with haste they were dishing out about 2 per second. Basically after my first full swings of curagas I forced him out of def mode and he didn't have time to summon those pesky Bones… and he started swinging deaths at me. I spent half the battle reviving, and with haste and all three characters buffing I have time to throw at least 1 curaga at him before another one dies but basically I killed him in 90 seconds, I still saw a 3 on the mins but not sure of the seconds.

    link directly to this cheat Loads of Gil, and LP

    This is the best tip you will ever read in the beginning of the game for Power Leveling!

    Location: Lhusu mines
    Requirements: none!
    Aids: Golden Amulets for 2x LP(Obtain at Eruyt Village from the kupos after finishing the Henne Mines). Forgotton Grimoire (costs 20,000 credits, aids with loot drops for the undead. obtain by viewing the hunters board in a pub 20 times, and will unlock in the bazaar).

    Head to the Lhusu mines and travel to the 4th area in the mines, Which is called the Shunia Twinspawn. It has about 17 undead spawns in that small room. Yeah, its Kill Chain time! (Kill chains increase loot drops and the chance for rare loots. in this case, Iron helmets).

    After those foes are defeated, head to the next area titled Site 2. About 15 undead are in here, kill all of them and head back to area 4, the Shunia Twinspawn. Kill all of those undead again! by this time we should have a rockin kill chain of 47.

    Head back 2 areas (Oltam Span) without killing anything to ruin our kill chain. The purpose of heading back two area's is to reset the Shunia Twinspawn so we can repeat the process. So hold the Flee button (R2) during these areas.

    Try to get a kill chain of about 200 (takes like 15-20 minutes). then head back out to any merchant and sell your loot!

    Heres what you will have:
    99x Bone fragments = 19k
    10-25 Iron helmets = 6k-17k (this greatly depends on whether or not you have the Grimoire for the undead)
    88x Dark stone = 2k

    So basically, anywhere from 25k through 42k in just 15-20 minutes. And if you have the Golden Amulets (2x LP), about 400 LP and leveled your characters once or twice.

    Additional Tip: Remember, your characters in reserve also earn LP, so equip them with Golden Amulets too.

    Here are several ways you can get your hands on a Dark Matter. (besides from Treasure Chests) Here are some of those ways:

    Bazzar:

    The Item appears in the Bazzar as "Mysterious Substance". You'll need a Bat Wing, which has a 40% drop from the Rare Game Aerieel. 3 Grimiore Togails, which you can obtain from Nightmares in the Henne Mines, and many other Nightmare type beasts and 3 Grimiore Aidheds, which you can obtain from Darkmare, Mistmare and Mallicant. Got all of them? Head to the bazzar and sell them and a Bazzar Package labeled "Mysterious Substance" should appear. Buy it for 14999 gil, and you got yourself a Dark Matter.

    Clan Centurio

    Once you obtain the rank, Order of Ambrosia, you can buy Dark Matter from the Clan Provisoner for a measly 2 gil.

    How to Use It

    Dark Matter's damage increases everytime you use a Knot Of Rust. The best gambit for this job is:

    Foe - Any -> Knot of Rust
    and turn off any other gambits so it doesn't interfere. Go to Giza Plains (I suggest this place or Dalmasca Estersand. I normally a run around Giza to the Save Crystal). Your character should use Knot of Rust on any foe that appears.

    Once you reach a Save Crystal, save your game (IMPORTANT!!) and do a test on the Dark Matter, if its not fully charged to 60,000, soft reset and continue using Knot of Rust.

    Easiest Way to Obtain it IMO

    The easiest way, you would be better off obtaining it from the Mysterious Substance. After you obtain Order of Ambrosia, Dark Matter shouldn't prove a use unless you're going for a perfect game. You can also be better off obtaining it from a Treasure Chest, (example: Tomb of Raithwall, Demonsbane sword chest. This one is easy since it has a 45% gil chance, and a 90% best chance to obtain a Dark Matter.)

    Hope you find this of use, and good luck obtaining your Dark Matters!

    link directly to this cheat Quick EXP Gaining Tip

    Location: Henne Mines / Pithead Junction C
    Equipment: Deselect your Weapon, leave only a shield with high evade, and an item to double EXP
    Gambits: Give each of your characters one of these Gambits:

    Character 1:
    Ally: Any -> Arise
    Foe: Nearest -> Sleepga
    Foe: Undead -> Curaja
    Self: Self -> Haste
    Self: Self -> Faith
    Self: Self -> Protectga

    Character 2:
    Ally: Any -> Arise
    Foe: Furthest -> Sleepga
    Foe: Undead -> Curaja
    Self: Self -> Haste
    Self: Self -> Faith

    Character 3
    Ally: Any -> Arise
    Ally: HP < 50% -> Curaja
    Foe: Nearest -> Sleepga
    Foe: Undead -> Curaja
    Self: Self -> Haste
    Self: Self -> Faith
    Ally: Any -> Esuana

    How to:
    When you get to the the Pithead Junction C you will notice something red on the wall. When you walk up to it, you will see that it is the Gate Switchboard. Simply press X to shut the gate, and then press X again to open the gate again. This will unleash around 12-15 bats on you, however worry not, the bats are undead and so the above Gambit set-up will maximise the damage.

    Your characters will first cast Sleepga on the enemies putting them to sleep, followed by Curaja damaging them, and as it's magical damage it wont wake them up either. With Faith turned on, you should be able to do huge amounts of damage in little time. Once you've defeated all of the Bats, simply exit the area, take a left and left again. Then simply turn back as soon as it loads and go back to the section and do this again.

    With a Party of 3, you will gain around 3000-3200 EXP for every bat you kill (with a single character that's 9000 - although not recommended). You can gain levels very quickly, especially later in the game.

    link directly to this cheat Quickening Combo Technique

    Here's how to do it:
    - First leave only one character in my party, and use his quickening. All of his MP is depleted
    - Them add another party member to use his quickening, this way both characters can combo, even if one of them has no MP
    - Do it again with a third character. This way you can start a new quickening combo as long as you have a character on my party with full mp. With six characters, you could use quickenings six times in a row, being four of them with a entire party using quickenings, so it's much easier to combo.

    Now, how to do the combos:
    Put some piece of cloth on the buttons and start sliding my thumb over them. You don't have the reflexes to shuffle and press the right button, so just press them all like a maniac. Why the cloth ? So my finger slides faster. Oh, by the way, slide your finger twice after shuffling. Sometimes there's a mist charge instead of a quickening. Mist charge gives you more time to combo, and when you press it, you have to press the same button again to use another quickening.

    The Espers:

    Aremmalech the Wroth: lv 40 Recommend lv 45-50

    This Esper is located at Athroza Quicksands in Zertinan Caverns. The place where you fight him has many other un-dead monsters that join him. Do not attempt to fight him until you can routinely kill a numerous amount of level 40 monsters at the same time. Be aware that he is not summoning them. If you can keep from pushing the battle to areas you have not yet walked on you should be able to stop them from springing up from the ground. One monster spawns for about every one or two square feet in relation to your character. Use ice-based attacks on him or bubble Mateus

    Exodius the Judge-Sal: Recommend lv 45 lv 45-55

    This Esper becomes available after you battle Cid in Draklor Laboratories. Go to the Babbleing Vale in the Moshphoran Highwastes. One of the villagers there by one of the shires will tell you that the shrines have started working, but he is not sure what they do. Activate the three eastern wind ones first (northeastern, eastern, and southeastern). You can only activate three at a time. Look at your map and you will see three new marks on it that indicate bridges have formed to areas you could not reach previously. Go east to the Rays of Ashen Light section and find the Chocobo in the northern section. Feed him a Gyshal Green and ride him through the newly opened area to the end where you will see a path leading onward blocked by bushes that only a Chocobo can cross.

    This will take you to the Sky Reach Ridge section on the western side of the Vale. From here you can enter the Vale and activate a shrine that was out of reach before. Once you have gone north of the shrine to the big boulder, you will find a section that you can break to clear a path into the Vale. You must now activate one more shrine to get access to Exodus. It is the north or northwestern shrine; check your map to be sure. It will open a place near the last shrine you activated on the northern part of Sky Reach Ridge. Next, go back to Sky Reach Ridge and fight him. Part way through the battle he will become immune to physical attacks. He is very good at keeping up his reflect barrier. Make sure to dispel it before hitting him with magic. He has some very powerful magical attacks, like flare. Near death he becomes immune to physical attack so wait it out.

    Chuculainn the Impure: (cu koo lain) lv 50 Recommend lv 55-65

    First, successfully complete the Mob Hunt mission for White Mousse to get the Water Gate Key. Go to the Central Control area and use the Water Gate Key to close the gates to the 11th and 4th areas, using the little pedestals on the ground. Then, go into the 4th Accessory District and find a control for the 1st area gate and activate it. Return to the Central Control area and reopen the 11th and 4th gates, then close the 10th and 3rd gates. Next, go to the 3rd Accessory District and again close the switch to the 1st area. Return again and open the 10th gate and close the 4th. You should now be able to go to the south part of the 1st Control Area where you will find the Chuculain Boss. Defeat the Boss to get Chuculain. He uses alot of status effects so buy a black belt in Lowtown at the plaza.

    Zeromus the Condemmer: lv 50 Recommend lv 55-60

    Return to the Stillshrine of Miriam and use the teleport stone inside. You use the teleport stone again atfer frist use. Go unto the room where you end up and there's Zeroumus.
    Magic is Sealed so you can't use Magic.
    So now you will have to depend on items.
    Have plenty of X Potions and Ethers.
    Don't forget Quickinings. They are you best buddies in this fight. If you have any dark absobing armor (black masks)equip them. The dark lords respawn and cast a lot of Dark, Darkra and Darkga. Now, pummel Zeromus's HP.
    He uses Graviga a lot, so to counter that
    you heal a lot. Graviga cuts your HP in half.
    And if your unlucky, two will kill you. Spam Quickings and heal MP with Ethers. Hopefully, the
    dark lords get hit by the final blast.

    Zalera the Death-Seraph: lv 40 Recommend lv 45-50

    This quest to get Zalera requires that you have completed the Patient in the Desert event to get the Barheim Passage. Enter the Barheim Passage from the secret entrance in the Dalmasca Estersand and go through the tunnels to Terminus No. 7. The path beyond isn't easy. The path has very many strong undead monsters. This is actually a great time to level up your party but be careful. The path through the Zeviah Span is blocked neat the south end. Check the west side. There is an object there you can move to make a new path down to West Annex. This is the most dangerous part since the undead monsters appear in groups. Save in Terminus N0. 7 before heading into the boss battle.

    Chaos the Walker of the Wheel: lv 55 Recommend lv 60-65

    Chaos is the hardest to get depending on you're point of view.

    to start this fight against arguably the 2nd hardest boss in the game you must have previously defeated the mark vyraal and recieved the dragon scale. (i would recomend that your charactors are level 70+ to make this easier)

    you should then go to the number 10 windmill in 'the northsward' which is in cerobi steppe examine the windmill and when promted give the wyrm philosopher the dragon scale in return he will give yu the age worn key.

    go to destiny's march in the sochen palace, walk round the out side of the diamond shape structure starting from the eastern side opening only the "dorr of hours" (there are eight in total) if you have done this corrctly there will be a message telling you that you hear a door open in the distance.

    go through the middle of the diamond and open the ascetic door on the western sidego through the passage and open the next door using the age worn key.

    you can now fight the wyrm. he does have nearly nine million health but you can leave the area and come back without it healing its self.(he is als weak against holy so if you have it equip one of your team with the excalibur) after you deferat the wyrm you can go to montblanc in the clan centurio and recieve 50 000 gil. and this will allow you to fight against yiazmat the hardest boss in the game if you have met the other condintions

    link directly to this cheat Ultima esper

    While the sidequest to get this esper isn't as long as the one to get Chaos, the battle against this esper will be pretty though if you aren't strong enough.
    First complete the events in the The Ancient City Of Giruvegen. Now go back inside this dungeon until you reach The Great Crystal – A Prama Vikaari again (the first screen). You are currently in platform VIII from there they are 3 routes one is up, one is down and another is sealed by Gate Scorpio. Go up, press the switch and return to platform VIII. There follow the just unsealed path up. You'll reach platform IX, use the way stone to reach platform X. From platform X follow the only path until you get to XX platform. XX platform has two sealed Gate Sagittarius, one way down, two ways up, another way is where you come from. Go in the opposite direction of where you came from (which leads you down) continue a couple of screens and you'll find a switch, press it and return to XX before the time runs out. In XX unseal Gate Sagittarius 2, not 1. Follow the new path and you'll find yourself in platform XII, use the way stone to get to XIV platform, there go the way that goes up, press the switch in the next screen and return to platform XIV before the time runs out. There go the way down, keep going the only path through some platforms until third platform where they are two paths take the one that goes up. Now unseal Gate Leo 2, if you are in the right place there will be a wyrm enemy behind the gate. Here you'll see two more ways and a Gate Gemini, take any of those two paths to reach platform XV, take the way stone there and you'll get to XVI. In platform XVI follow the middle way and you'll see a switch for Gate libra press it and go back to XVI. In platform XVI take the right path that leads up, unseal the Gate Libra 1st and follow that way.
    You've now reached a platform with 4 ways, from the one you came go to the left one that leads up. Push the switch for Gate Capricorn and return to platform XVI (do it fast because there will be a time limit) In XVI take the only path that goes down, unseal the game and press the switch, then return to XVI. In platform XVI take the middle way, you'll find yourself in the screen with the libra switch again, but now go the way down, in the next screen there will be two sealed gates, you have to unseal Gate Virgo 2, follow the new path. In the next platform go the right path that leads up. Next use the XVII way stone to reach the XVIII way stone. In XVIII follow the only way and if you followed all these steps correctly you'll find a save crystal at last!
    The platform with the save crystal has a total of 4 paths, taking as a point of view the one you came from: the left way takes you to the switch for Gate Aquarius, the right one leads to way stone XIX which warps you back to platform XX and the middle way is where Ultima is waiting for you.

    Ultima has more than 250000 of HP, she likes using a holy element magic, so using equipment to absorb this element is a must, by the way do not use anything that has holy element because you'll simple heal her.
    She will too cast spells to decrease your HP, MP and even seal commands!
    Casting dispel on her at the beginning of the battle is a good idea; you'll need a strong party in order to defeat her, good luck.
    If you can't defeat her just take the right way and return to platform XX and leave the place for, you'll be able to come back later, just use the way stone in XX and you'll get to XIX platform, which is one screen away from the crystal and two screens away from Ultima.
    After defeating her you'll receive her as a esper.

    You can find this "rare game" called Bombshell on Lasche's Span, inside the Lushu's Mines, this monster appears randomly in that Bridge, you can find there two Aeronites too, ..so you got to be careful on that because I want you to chain it.
    Why chain it?
    Because in one drop, you can get more than one Yagyu blade.

    To be able to find you have to run back and fort to that bridge, when you see it, hit it or let him to see you, after that Run! near the exit (Most of the time Aeronites won't be able to fallow you there)
    Kill it get the loot and go to the cart, I find it easier this way to spawn the Bombshell again.

    link directly to this cheat Yiazmat, Farewell to a legend hunt

    In order to face this Mark and conclude the Hunt and Clan Centurio side-quests, you must first have completed the Wyrm Philosopher side-quest and defeated seven Rank VII Marks. This spectacular Mark has 50 million HP! They're depicted as several dozen HP gauges. On the positive side, you don't have to defeat it in one go. If you exit the area it will not fully restore itself, so you can leave, save and return as much as you like. The number of attempts you make at defeating this Mark will appear in the top right-hand corner of the screen. Your team should be at least level 85 to have a decent chance of lasting long enough to harm the beast. Use the tactic of using Expose approximately ten times to lower the Mark's Defence rating, and keep your party members spread out to avoid losing them all at once. Cast Dispel regularly, and use the Most tried and trusted of Final Fantasy XII strategies: Protectga, Shellga and Hastega on everyone; a tank with Lure, Bravery and Regen; a damage dealer with Bravery and possibly Beserk; and of course, a spellcaster to heal everyone and cure all status ailments. Equip Ninja Swords (they're all imbued with Dark) and try to land a few massive combos. A Yagyu Darkblade and Genji Gloves are a particular potent partnership. Alternatively, you can use Guns loaded with Dark Shot. Note that casting Reverse on your entire team will negate man of the Mark's attacks, as they will then actually heal you rather than harm you. Since this is too difficult to maintain constantly, consider casting it regularly at least on your Lured tank. A few things you should keep in mind to make things easier: Stick close to Yiazmat to prevent it from attempting to heal itself, which it will do if you move too far away. Before you leave the battlefield, make sure you cast Dispel if your opponent has the Regen status. When Yiazmat uses Reflectga, quickly remove this effect before healing your team (especially with Renew) or temporarily equip Mirror Mails prior to that. Be mindful of the traps laid in the arena. Either regularly cast Float, or trip them deliberately when your HP is sufficiently high to avoid getting a nasty surprise later on. Obviously, don't use Holy or Holy-imbued weapons: their damage will be absorbed. Equipping Windbreakers is very effective against Cyclone attacks: feel free to do this manually when you see one coming in the Combat Log. If you have two KO'd characters, bring at least one reserve member to revive both of them simultaneously. If you are short on MP, rotate healing duties, or use Syphon on whoever casts Magicks the least. Equipping Bubble Belts free's you from having to cast this essential status effect, and works permanently, even on characters who have just been revived. Try and equip your spellcaster with a Sage's Ring (to limit MP consumption), your best Gun loaded with Dark Shot, and have them obtain the Serenity Licence: if they then stay far enough out of the way, and constantly dodge Yiazmat, they will be scarcely be harmed, and will therefore be 20% more efficient when casting Magicks. If they also cast Faith constantly, they will make powerful healers. Once the monster has only a few HP bars left, you might need to equip Bubble Belts and cast nothing but Protectga to save time and MP And finally, don't forget to save once in a while, particularly around the end of the fight! Your reward for eventually triumphing in this truly awesome fight will be 300,000 Gil and the Godslayer's Badge.

    The Theory:Seeing as Zalera's attacks affect multiples of level 2, 3 4 and 5 and prime numbers any non-prime number which is a multiple of level 7 should make the player immune to all of Zalera's level based attacks, especially the brutal prime-level kill. This means 49(7x7), 77(7x11)and 91(7x13). This should really help with NLB challenge games.
    Not so much with 122333 though.

    Giruvegan has tested this for me and it works. As long as you are at level 49 the worst Zalera can throw at you is plain 'ol kill. No more level related attacks for NLB players who've been having trouble, or anyone who has trouble with Zalera's level-related attacks. I am delighted. Thanks, Giru.

Enter the Barheim Passage from the secret entrance in the Dalmasca Estersand and go through the tunnels to Terminus No. 7. The path beyond isn't easy. The path has very many strong undead monsters. This is actually a great time to level up your party but be careful. The path through the Zeviah Span is blocked neat the south end. Check the west side. There is an object there you can move to make a new path down to West Annex. This is the most dangerous part since the undead monsters appear in groups. Save in Terminus N0. 7 before heading into the boss battle.

    This battle is quite different from the rest since you have a five minute timer. That means you must defeat the Esper within that time or oyu must restart from the beginning. It may be stressful but just relax.

    During the battle, Dead Bones will join the battle. When these monsters are on range, Zalera becomes immun eot physical attacks. So keep an eye for them and when you see one, quickly kill them.

    Be careful of what your party member's levels because he can cast Lv.2 Sleep, Lv.3 Disable, Lv.4 Break, Lv.5 Preverse, and Prime Lv. Death. These attack affect your characters with a level divisble by 2, 3, 4 or 5, and those of a prime number. Once you enter the battle, quickly Dispel the boss of his status effects. Defeat the Dead Bones as quickly as possible and then focus on the Esper. When his HP is low, he will start to cast Sleepga, Stop and Death. Right before the timer runs out, use a Quickening.

    The Zodiac Spear is the "best" or strongest weapon that can be found in the game in order to obtain it you must fulfil the following requirements:

    Do not open the treasure chest in front of the old man (Dalan) house in Rabanastre Lowtown.

    Do not open the Elixir chest in Rabanastre Palace. (SE corner of the Cellars)

    Do not open the treasure chests in Nalbina Dungeons inside the room where you get back your inventory.

    Do not open the 16 treasure chests in Phon Coast South-East section.

    If you didn't open those treasures, the spear will ALWAYS be in the Necrohol of Nabrudis, in the third area inside a room with 16 chests in it.
    One of them will contain the spear.
    This means you can get the spear in the Necrohol before you ever get to Phon Coast!! But I must warn you that doing this will make the game way too easy.


    But if you already opened them and you want the spear, then:

    The spear is still available in Henne Mines, however the chances to get it are very low
    The chest only appears 10% of the time, of the 10% that it appears, it will have gil 90% of the time, of the 10% of the time that an item is in it, it will be an elixir 90% of the time and it will only be the zodiac spear the other 10%
    This means you have a 1/1000 chance.
    It's in Henne Mines, East hidden section, go north from the Gate Crystal, then east. In the secret section, turn right from the second junction. Follow the way until you reach to next mine route. Now check the right side, around some crates, there is a small area that DOES NOT show in the map. The treasure chest will randomly appear there.

The path is just north of the Staging Shaft in the Ore Separation room. The Save Crystal in the Staging Shaft is the closest one you will find to Zodiark, so you best use it. The path to the Esper is very difficult and tricky. It's best to keep Float on at all times to avoid the many traps.

    Level HP EXP LP Steal
    66 335847 0 70 Serpentarius, High Arcana, Megalixir

    This battle is going to be long and hard. So prepare for this battle by equipping Dark Mask. Go into the battle with only one character because right at the beginning Zodiark casts Darkja and there is no reason for all your party to be exposed to it. Once that is done, bring out the other two characters.

    This Esper starts the battle with Reflect, Protect, Shell and Haste. Dispel them right away but be ready to Dispel again during the battle.

    The boss often uses Darkja quick can cause a lot of damage and may wipe out your party at times. There is no way of avoiding this attack but Dark Masks will help out a lot.

    You need some sort of technick in this battle and how you react and recover from Darkja. When you main party falls, bring in your reserved party and quickly heal them with Phoenix Downs or Arise. Your reserved party can fight for a bit but they probably won't be as strong as your main party. At times you will have to switch in your main party to heal your reserved party. This is going to happen often, but it has to be done. This technick is very important when it comes closer to the end of the battle when Darkja isn't your only worry. But remember to keep your party away from each other to ranged attacks like Scathe won't affect everyone.

    The first part of the battle is pretty simple. You should cast Berserk and Bravery on your strongest physical attacker and just then him go. If you have weapons with Holy affects on them, you best equip them to your attacker. A powerful attacker can hit 9999 HP of damage with Haste and Berserk on.

    The fight becomes more difficult when Zodiark has about half his HP left. When this happens, he puts up a Magick Shield. When this happens just keep attacking him. Just try to keep him dispelled but when the shield it up, it is very hard.

    When Zodiark's HP is close to one quarter, he uses a skilled called Swift which will change his elemental weakness. So you best change all your weapons no non-elemental ones. This is when you start to use Quickenings against him. You can actually end the battle right there will a large Quickening chain and save yourself from what is to come. If the Quickening doesn't finish him off, it will begin to use a Paling and Magick Shield. This makes the battle more difficult. So you will begin to use non-elemental magicks such as Scathe. Just be careful when you are using magicks, just watch out for Zodiark casting Reflect and the Magick Shield. When he has both on, just heal your party and wait for it to go down.

    When Zodiark's HP is low, his attacks grow stronger and faster. So Darkja is used more often then before. The most dangerous part is when his HP is almost done. Just take your time and don't make any silly mistakes.

    link directly to this cheat Defeating Dr. Cid at Draklor

    Ok, Dr. Cid has rooks during battle. The rooks don't have that much HP. But they heal Dr. Cid everytime he's injured. Do a quickening on the Rooks. Dr. Cid is faster but he eventually casts a physical immune shield on himself. Do a quickening chain of 12 or 14. At least 1 rook will be destroyed.

    After defeating all Rooks, Dr. Cid becomes a little more powerful. His attacks ingnore your defenses. Have at least 15 ethers and fully restore 3 characters MP. Keep 2 of them out of battle so you don't use their MP up. Repeat, after completing 1 quickening. Take 1 charcter out of battle and repeat. I suggest being Lv. 48 for this battle.

    After passed the event in Tomb Of Raithwall, back to Dalmasca Westersand, go to North-East, you will see a dragon going through the sand storm. Now:
    Back to Westgate of Rabanastre City, talk to the bangaa Rimzat.
    Head to central section, talk to Cotze, he is in the fountain.
    Go to Downtown, around Storehouse No.5, talk to the man named Northon, he is crouching beside a bangaa.
    Back to Dalmasca Westersand, go find the Dynast-Cactoid in the Eastern section before you reach to the Gate Crystal, where known as Windtrace Dunes. It's locatedh in the smaller site, so you should go there from the South area.
    Check on the inner Dynast-Cactoid of this section for the Wind Globe.
    Return to Westgate of Rabanastre City, now those NPCs who giving you the mission should be there. Speak with them to get Windvane.
    Now move to North-East section of Dalmasca Westersand, you're able to cross the sand storm.

    Becareful when the boss perform the Air Screw which can damage all characters. Normal attack not that powerful, tail attacks even weaker as long as you have character with shield. But also don't forget always heal your characters before anyone of them KO. Slow spell does work for this boss, but also you might miss it sometimes. When it has less then half of the life bar, it will auto increase the defend, just spend some times to finish off it. Anyway, this could be some challenges if your characters are around level 30.

    link directly to this cheat Easy Level Ups

    It is recommended that you are at least lvl 60 before doing this. You will need an Embroidered Tippet and a vey strong weapon(spear, or 2h sword) that can deal 4000+ damage at will. Once you have all that, go to the Tchita Uplands, and make sure there's only 1 person in your party. Equip the Embroiddered Tippet and go into the area east of the teleport sphere. This area should have a lot of Malboror Overkings, for you to kill. Since you only have 1 party member and an Embroidered Tippet, each Malboro Overking will give you 5000+ exp. Since there are about 18 of them in that area, and other monsters along with them, each trip will give you 100,000+exp.

    Rght now I'm training in the Ozmone Plains against those werewolf guys who give you 2 LP. I have the Golden Amulet on everyone. There are 3 of them that show up each time, and there are 3 Black chocobos, which gives me 18 LP everytime I clear out that part. Plus the experience isn't that bad either. I'd probably advise this for around level 15-20.

    (if your low level and want to use this then summon belias to giv em a thrashing )

    link directly to this cheat How to avoid self-combo

    This is the faster way to avoid your self-combos when auto-leveling with Dustia's method, what you need to do is when the numbers of the damange appears go to the equipment menu, remove the weapons you have equiped and equip it again, this way you'll never cause yourself a combo.

    I've tested it myself and it works perfectly.

    It's usual that when playing, you use your favourite characters, leaving the OTHER 3 low levelled. So to level up your characters fast, go fight an enemy that gives the most exp, attacking him with your high level characters, then when he has critical HP, change 2 or 3 characters and finish him off, getting a lot of EXP for the two/three characters that you just brought in.

    link directly to this cheat Respawn Rare Games

    Rare game monsters that are able to teleport, such as the Reaper and Mistmare variations, can be respawn by using the exact same trick with Dustia. First, when you see the Rare Game, provoke it and let it chase you ALL the way to the borderline of the area. Kill the monster, try to pick up the loot and exit before the EXP/LP totals show up. This is very useful especially when you powerlevel with Dustia or chain Grand Helms with Helvinek.

    link directly to this cheat the best way to level up easy in lower area of golmore jungle

    The lower portion of the golmore jungle right before the exit to feywood is a great place to level up with or without embroidered tippet. Only do this with one character though. But make sure your equipment is okay, it doesn't need to be really really good. in order for you to do this you would need to defeat all the monster in the lower area of golmore jungle. Soon after that, the undead monster will start to pop up they give about 2500-3000 experience point. Chain about 26 of them by going around the whole area, once you defeat about 26 the grave lord will show up. Grave lord is a rare game monster. after you defeat the grave lord, exit the place towards eruyt village and come back immediately do not kill any enemies, just go in and out. This is because you won't find anymore enemies after you defeat grave lord so go out and back in again. From here you'll be able to chain about another 60-70 more just keep going around and around, so that is a total of 80-90 chains. If you times 80-90 with 2500-3000 thats 200,000-270,000 experience points in one trip not including prior monster that is not included in the chain. So the whole trip should be about 300,000-350,000 without the embroidered tippets that doubles your exp, but with it experience will double, you do the math. The good thing as well is that since your chaining over 50+, your chain level up every 10 chains and it allows you to get lots of loots from each monster, thus solving some not all of your gil problem youll be able to get lots of dark magicite, sturdy bone, teleport stones, death heads and many more. this is better than going to henne mines where the enemies are crazy hard. or lhusu mines. the one in lhusu mines gives around 6000 exp but they are super hard and you wont be able to use 1 character unless you really have a good weapon and and armor and the enemies are hard to chain.

    my place in the game i just reach phons coast and got the site 11 key. got the aegis shield and maximillian. i was at level 54 and i was able to get to level 70 in no time.

    i used bubbles, haste, protect, shell and bravery on my character. weapon was deathbringer, armor is platinum shield, helmet and armor. (i didn't use aegis shield and maximillian and i did fine).

    Curative items hurt undead enemies. Spells, and potions deal damage to them, while Phoenix Downs will kill them instantly.

    However, some undead enemies towards the end of the game are immune to such things as arise and other curative items, then then it doesn't work 100%.
