I made it to 77 lightning bolts..
then BAM!...
I threw the controller to the floor and went to the kitchen lol
will try once and then proceed to grind for other stuff, eventually ill get it,
it's shaping to be the worst trophy out of all of them.
I decided this would be the year I finally finish Final Fantasy II. This game is a weird bag for me - my first exposure to it was in 1998 when the Demiforce fan translation was released and I had a Pentium PC (333MHz, if I recall) that could play it. I spent a few hours trying to figure out how to set everything up and was really excited to play "the sequel we never got". Until I actually played it. In my mind I guess I thought it would be more like the US Final Fantasy II, and after having beat Final Fantasy III (VI) and VII by then it was a huge letdown. I believe I gave up after a few hours of "trying to get a feel for it".
You are using no encounters armor and forcing the lightning bolts to strike by running to the correct crater, right?
what's the deal with inventory anyway?? there are so few items I can take with me, I hate that. I found myself discarding tons of things and I'd like to keep them all :/
can I store my items anywhere so I can keep "hoarding" or does the game force me to choose weapons/armors?
yep
I am tired now, it's late at night so I guess I should try tomorrow.
There's no way to store gear. I'm surprised you've run out of room since there are 178 slots. Honestly 99% of the gear you get in FFX is only good for selling.
question
.- where or how exactly do I farm those spheres with which I fill the empty nodes?? also, should I farm and use of a certain type? it seems I could fill the nodes just get tons of "H" nodes and get pletny of heal points, neglecting all other traits.
They mostly drop from the super enemies in the monster arena
forgot to ask, there are some enemies I just can't seem to find.
I am missing four enemies from the cave of the stolen fayth, have no idea where to look for it and it won't appear by it's one
is the tonberry there rare?
Money: Get Rikku's celestial weapon and then grind mimics. You'll get a ton of money very quickly.
Items: You'll get most of the items you need via the fiend collection side quest. Here is a list of all mixtures: https://www.gamefaqs.com/ps2/197344-final-fantasy-x/faqs/15349
AP: First you need to unlock Don Tonberry in the arena by capturing one of every fiend in the Cavern of the Stolen Fayth. Once that's done you then need to get weapons with three empty slots on them and then customize a specific set of skills on to them. First off you'll want the triple AP skill which costs a whopping 50 wings to discovery to customize. You can get 30 to start you off from the Chocobo race at Remiem Temple but after that you'll have to get them the slow way by bribing Malboros. It costs 270k and you'll get two of them. Needless to say you'll want to farm gil before AP. The second skill you'll want is triple overdrive. This costs 30 winning formulas to customize onto it. You get 99 of them for free after capturing one of every fiend in the game, but after that you'll need to bribe sandworms with a whopping 900,000 gil if you want to get more. And last but certainly not least you want to get the overdrive -> AP skill. The skill requires 10 doors to tomorrow in order to customize but thankfully they are easy to get. You just need to capture one of every fiend in six different areas to unlock Catastrophe and you'll be rewarded with 99 of them.
The trick itself is actually quite easy to do once you get the gear you need. Equip your party with their AP farming weapons, set their overdrive mode to comrade, and then go fight Don Tonberry. Every time you attack him he'll counterattack for a ton of damage and kill the person that attacked him. Thanks to your comrade overdrive mode and the abilities of your weapons the other two people on the field when this happens will get a ton of AP. Using this method you can go from SL0 to SL99 in a single fight.
I am not sure what I am doing wrong and Youtube isn't of much help...
I am wanting to farm for money so I tried the Mimic tactic in this post, I have Rikk's celestial weapon and it's fully functional.
I try fighting the mimic and it takes FOREVER to get killed... the guide says it's immune to everything so apparently there's no way but to just keep attacking til it dies. is there a way to kill it faster?
youtube videos show characters with 999999999 everything so they really aren't helping because I haven't really started power-grinding for anything so my characters are weak and they still die to enemies in the omega ruins.
are there maybe some other tactics for AP grinding at this point in my playthrough?? I just need a fight/enemy that gives me around 15~20k per battle and that isn't that hard to learn, just to get a bit stronger and be able to kill harder enemies faster, get money faster and get the thing going.
also, for the three attritbutes (triple overdrive, overdrive -> AP, etc) every character needs to hold such a weapon to get the higher AP points, right?? or is it one weapon per party??
thanks for any help!
For doing more than 9999 HP damage, although you can customize weapons to break the damage limit, in practice you're better off just using the fully powered up Celestial Weapons, all of which break the damage limit.
thanks everyone for the help, yeah I just had spend some time in the omega ruins and some enemies are pretty good for AP, I'll level up there for a while
I have the brady games guide.... it says CLEARLY that I had to take the sun crest after beating, in a chest behind her. The other two parts for Tidus's weapon are very easy to get.Yunalesca
can you imagine I didn't take the sun crest???
I tried to go there to grab it but right there is Dark Bahamut...
now Tidus's functional weapon will probably be one of the last things I'll do with this game..
fuck me.
Hopefully you got the destruction sphere chest in the Besaid trial your first time through. If not then Tidus won't be the only character that has a piece of their celestial weapon locked behind a dark aeon.
one Rod for Yuna? no I didn't take it either.
I am pretty fucking stupid.
The good news is you can get the other five.
Easiest to hardest
Rikku, auron, kimahri, wakka, lulu
With the final three ordered by your experience with their mini games. (butterfly catching, blitzball, lightning dodging)
Edit: point of no return is when a big tower falls down and knocks tidus over and there's a teleporter in it. There's a save point in the immediately previous room
Yeahh. Not only does this mean you need to beat a dark aeon to fully power up Yuna's celestial weapon it also means you need to beat said dark aeon to get the last two aeons. You uh did get the Macalania trial chest though, right? Cause if not then you'll have to beat the dark aeon there as well.
There isn't a point of no return in the traditional sense. You can warp out of the final area from the last save point.
ok... so now that I fucked up, I need some opinions.
how would you customize a "super weapon" for Tidus? I can buy a "variable steel" with 4 free slots and then what should I put in there to have a chance against dark aeons and super mega bosses??
As for Yuna's do I really need a super weapon? if so, how should I customize a new weapon for her?
Those rare drops are the worst! the worst!
I might die of all age before I'll get them all.

Do the modern versions have a double animation speed andor auto-battle function? The rare drop grinds in the SNES version were real bad, I could only imagine how much worse it is now with slower and more cinematic battle animations.
Why are you even bothering?
So you're one of those compulsive collectors? Not me. On my first playthrough I got the Bomb and I think Goblin summon in the beginning of the game, never got them since. Once I found out how rare those drops were I found out I was extremely lucky.one we have on steam - I suppose you are asking about that - has an autobattle option indeed, combat animations still take time though, but! you can skip summoning animation.
I use only one character (with kick on auto) for farming (where possible), it makes things a lot faster, one animated move instead of 5. Unfortunately that's not an option for probably half of those rare drops.
I wanted all achievements, it's one of my most played game, I want to do the last play through it with the bang of getting all rare drops. It takes ages tho and it's hella boring.
I've been trying to play through (and platinum when I can) as many Final Fantasy games as I can (on PS4). Why? Because I've not much better to do when I'm not at work.
So far, this year I've managed to Platinum VII (loved it, and thankfully the 3x speed button in the PS4 version made this one much more enjoyable for the grind), and XV (I loved that story).
Currently I'm on X, just finishing up the sphere grid. I got XII today, and am not sure whether to do X-2 or XII next.
I wish they could put VIII and IX on PS4, since they're my favourite, (although I could just play my original PS1 or Vita copies).
I may go revisit I-VI sometime, but I don't wanna touch the mobile versions, and only have 1+2 on GBA at the moment, any recommendations?
Once Iplatinum FFXII:TZA, I will dive into FFX PS4/PSV (replay) and actually finish one of the important FF sequels I've missed:hopefully
Dirge of Cerberus

Dirge of Cerberus is really bad so I would recommend against it. Although it is short so at least it has one thing going for it unlike the worst FF sequel, The After Years.
RE: "FFT is easy to break" -- yes, it is. But the next time you play, you might deliberately avoid using certain characters or jobs. Like FF5, it's amazing how easy FFT is to break, but how flexible it is if you'd like to play it a different way.
I feel like I'm the only one who liked FFXIII (then again, I like and appreciate all mainline FF games lol). I might do another playthrough this September or October.
I did like exploring Pulse though, it was pretty great.
To be fair I might end up liking the rest of it, who knows... It's just that the intro was surreal to me. I didn't even have anything against the game before starting it, I was fully expecting to enjoy it even.
I think XIII's intro is probably the best part about its story. I really enjoy the high-concept "scenario" of Lightning freeing a train of condemned deportees.
