Final Fantasy XII? - Page 3

Hey! Did you all know that you can level up at the beginning of the game (by only using Vaan) and when other's join you they join at or above your level? Ex: Using only Vaan, you chain all the wolves in the Eastersand, then move to anywhere you get a decent weapon/armor from, then level up till you have two quickenings and fight the Werewolves that tore my Vaan in my current game a new one before I knew any better for big level gains (20-25+.) Then when other characters join the party, you get all that LP and their levels are 20-25 also!!! I think I'll try that on my next playthough...unless I restart for giggles. =)

I totally just had a 12 hit Quickening Combo.

**Phoenix Flame** · 11-10-2006, 04:52 AM

Did that give you Ark Blast...or something different?

I'm level 15-16 right now and the second Demon Wall's a pain in the ass. I need it to stop being annoying. And get something that protects me from sleep.

Nah. I've had Inferno, Cataclysm, and Windburst. Skipped right over torrent. I have 3 people with level 2 Quickenings and 1 Person with level 1 quickening.

Berserk will help greatly. My strategy was to blast him with a Quickening chain, and cast Berserk on my two melee fighters (Basch and Vossler). That, with my party at level 21 or so, quickly took down the first Demon Wall. It's worth it for the Demonsbane Sword that you can get from a treasure pot where the north and south hidden stairway passages meet. However, you can sometimes get something else, so you may need to try a few times if you really want to get the sword.

It seems now I have to go to this one mountain. And yay, Larsa is back! And his wonderful limitless supply of Hi-Potions...

**Phoenix Flame** · 11-10-2006, 11:24 PM

Yes, yes...Larsa's good for that - at least. I ended up starting a new quest. Going to level up Vaan till around lvl 20 and then proceed in the storyline.

Anyone get the items...don't know the name of em - that give you better drops from different sorts of enemies?

Haven't enough gil to bother right now.

and X-potions. This game seems to be a lot harder than all the other FFs I've played except for IV which also gave me a hard time, but it's all for the better, it makes me think better. I would think that this thread would get an entirely new thread based on the date of the first post, but anyway so far I love this game I'm currently at a snowy mountain with larsa, I won't spoil anything for you, but the story is engaging and well put together. I only wished that Square could sometimes make more masculine looking characters. Vaan and Larsa are so adrogynous, especially Larsa, I seriously though he was a girl the first time I saw him. Other than that this game is great, the license board sytem is great, I think I don't ever the get the spells I need on time, I guess because I'm really Frugal i mean penelo has 844 points and I only make her spend 40 at a time all my characters have at least 600 points on the board, I don't why I'm so frugal, is anyone else here like that too?

Zeromus_X · 11-11-2006, 12:58 AM

reason: They're called Grimoires!

They are very helpful, or so I've heard, I don't have any yet.

Larsa can hit things too.

Lyde: Hah! I thought 'Lamont' was a short woman the first time I saw him! It didn't help matters that nobody referred to him as a 'he' or anything until much later. xD

Unfortunately he doesn't use X-Potions too often for me. :/

Just killed the Elder Wyrm. Man, that thing was tough. Luckily the magic shops are overflowing with new spells, like Curaga, Haste (!!), and Esuna. Those are probably the most useful magicks I have right now. I'm considering farming more Coeurl Pelts, as they sell very, very well, and the Coeurls drop multiple pelts only a short while into a chain!

Berserk + Haste = Uber-Basch.

Staircase · 11-11-2006, 06:20 AM

Larsa is a MAN?!?!!?!!??!?!!?

Wha....

OK... Thats kinda interesting. I also thought it was a girl.

FantasyFanatic · 11-11-2006, 03:26 PM

It's a really good idea to use Larsa and go on hunts. He can really make things a lot easier on you.

You mean the book from the bazaar? I got it. Almost ever item drops an item.

Zeromus_X · 11-12-2006, 10:50 PM

Sochen Cave Palace has the greatest theme/is the greatest dungeon so far.

I may try to fight Zeromus tomorrow. I hear he's really difficult, and seals your ability to cast spells when you fight him! But it'll be so worth it to cast Big Bang monsters. xD

Lyde Lyde · 11-12-2006, 11:03 PM

I'm really confused on what I'm supposed to do in the Stillshrine of Mithriam. I press the one switch and it doesn't do anything, but summon zombies. I can't even leave until I kill them all and they're a little difficult. Should I try to to read the ibnscription again after I defeat the zombies?

Zeromus_X · 11-13-2006, 12:04 AM

You need to equip the Dawn Shard to your party leader, and then press the switch, Lyde.

Though if you're strong enough to kill the zombies with ease, you can build up a good chain by abusing the trap.
