 Target all with magic:
When in a fight, target someone or something with your
magic. Then, hit L1 to target all characters on that
side of the battle field for the same MP as if using it on one
person. This works very well when you want to heal your party
quicker. If L1 does not work, then try L2. Note:
This trick does not work with all magic [for example, Shell or
Protect]. Also, when using this trick the effectiveness of your
magic will be reduced slightly, but not so much as to make its
powers insignificant.
In-game reset:
Hold L1 + L2 + R1 + R2
+ Select + Start during game play.
Catching frogs:
| Frogs | Items |
| 2 | Ore |
| 5 | Ether |
| 9 | Silk Rode |
| 15 | Elixir |
| 23 | Silver Fork |
| 33 | Bistro Fork |
| 45 | Battle Boots |
| 99 | Battle Master Quale to receive Gastro Fork |
Easy AP:
Walk around in the darkness for awhile in the field
and forests around the town that has the Auction House and lady
who collects the zodiac signs. You will encounter a ghost. Provide
it some ore and you will win the battle, resulting in 10 AP.
Go to the forest west of the mountain path when going to the Lifa
Tree. It is the only forest there. Walk around in the forest until
you encounter a friendly monster called 'Ladybug'. Provide
it some Ore and it will reward you with 30 AP.
With the Invincible, go to Popo mountains where the grand dragons
are located. Walk around in the forest until you find a Garuda.
He will ask for Lapis Lazuli. If you give it to him, you will
win the battle and get 40 AP.
When you arrive at the Lost Continent, somewhere around Esto Gaza,
you will encounter a friendly Feather Circle. Provide him a Moonstone
and you will get 50 AP.
Go to the Crystal World after defeating Lich and kill the fake
crystal Bosses there. They do not give any experience points,
but are worth a lot of AP.
Retreat:
Hold L1 + L2 and you will see your party
flee from a battle. Keep the buttons held until they escape. Note:
This only works with wild monsters and not Bosses.
Press L1 + R1, wait a moment, then do it again.
Two player battle:
Go to the main menu, select 'Battle Control',
highlight 'Custom', and hit X. A screen featuring
all the characters that you have and some controllers will appear.
Move a controller to the second slot for the person that you want
player two to control.
 Hints: Ramuh and Shiva cards:
When you start Disc 3, go to the church with the bell
and the Save Mog. Save, go onto the ladder, and pull the rope.
You will get a Goblin, Fang, Ramuh, and Shiva cards.
reference:
'In the ship where Baku is asking who you are kidnapping,
you can see a map behind him. It is a color version of the Glacier
Map from Final Fantasy 7.
Hints: 'Final Fantasy Tactics
Hints: AP from ladybug:
After you have found the ghost outside of Treno which
gives you 10 AP, it says something about thanking a ladybug. The
ladybug is outside of the Mage village near the forest area. The
ladybug will ask you for some ores. Provide the ores to the ladybug
and she will say something about a Yeti, and give you 10 AP.
Hints: Fixing FMV sequence freezes:
If the game freezes while you are watching an FMV sequence,
open the disc tray then close it. The game will start back up
where the FMV sequence would have ended.
Hints: Card symbols:
Each card has a letter in its symbol at the bottom
-- this is either an M, P, or X. M stands for Magic, P for Physical,
and X for a special rare type. When battling cards, always attack
Ms with Ps and vice versa. This will give you a greater chance
for winning. Only use an X card to attack; if you use it to defend,
you will almost always lose.
The first number is the attack power of the card. If the card
is an M, it attacks the third number, if it is a P, it attacks
the fourth. X may attack the weakest of the third and fourth numbers.
Attack and defense power is 0123456789ABCDE [0 is lowest, E is
highest]. For example, if you had card BM06 and your opponent
had card AP07, you would more than likely win. All of this information
is available in the south of the shop in Dali on Disc 4.
The first number is the card's attack power and can be between
0 and F [0 is the lowest, F is the highest]. The next letter is
what type of attack they do [M-magical, P-physical, X-special,
A-special]. The last two numbers are defense. If a card is a magical
type it will attack the fouth number on the card. If it is physical
it will attack the third number on the card. If it is X-special,
it will attack the lower of the last two numbers. If it is A-special
it will attack the lowest number on the whole card; it will also
attack for whatever the highest number on its card is.
Hints: Dali: Treasure chests:
When you first visit the Village of Dali, go to the
room next to the Mayor's house and climb up the ladder. You will
see two treasure chests. Zidane will say he that cannot get them
while the windmill is turning. The mayor is in charge of the Windmill.
On Disc 3 when they return to Alexandria, you will see the Mayor
from Dali in the Inn at Alexandria -- no one is taking care of
the windmill in Dali. Afterwards, Zidane, Vivi, Freya, Amarant,
and Eiko will go to Treno. When they arrive, before entering the
card tournament, get out of Treno through south gate and return
to Dali. Go to the room next to the Mayor's house and climb the
ladder. The windmill is off, and you can now get the chests. One
contains an Elixir.
Hints: Survive Doomsday:
To survive Doomsday, have Vivi and Freya in your party.
Equip Vivi with the Staff Of Zeus then enter a battle . First,
have Freya use her jump attack then have Vivi cast Doomsday. If
done correctly, the only survivor should be Freya.
Have everyone in your party equipped with armor that absorbs and
defends against Shadow damage. For example, equip Zidane with
the Egoist's Armlet, Ninja Gear, and Protect Ring. Equip Vivi
and Dagger with the Egoist's Armlet and the Demon's Vest. Equip
Steiner with the Demon's Mail. Then, enter a battle. Have Vivi
use Doomsday and your party will be protected and healed by the
spell; only the enemy will be damaged. This is very useful during
the final battle with Necron, as it will prevent the Shadow damage
and effects from the Grand Cross attack.
Hints: Chocograph treasures:
1. Streamside, located southwest of Chocobo's Forest in the location
where the river meets the beach. You will get two Elixers, three
Hi-Potions, four Ethers, and two Germinas Boots.
2. Between Mountains, located west of Dragon's Gate in between
the mountains. You will get five Potions, five Hi-Potions, two
Tents, and two Cotton Robes.
3. Healing Shore, located northwest of Cleyra. You will upgraded
to a light blue Chocobo.
4. Uncultivated Land, located south of Ice Cavern [Airship required].
You will get one Jade Armlet, three Wing Edges, and one Cargo
Ship Card.
5. Abandoned Beach, located east of Black Mage Village. You will
get nine Phoenix Pinions, five Phoenix Downs, thirteen Peridots,
and one Diamond Glove.
6.Cold Field, located east of Esto Gaza. You will get five Echo
Screens, seven Hi-Potions, three Tents, and one Theater Ship Card.
Hints: Porom reference:
There is a reference of one of the twins from Final
Fantasy 2 when you first visit Lindblum. When you go into
the Business District, walk near the Card Freak's house. Approach
the cart and an '!' should appear over Zidane's head.
Press X and the game will refer to Porom's Action Figures.
Hints: Silk Shirt:
When you play as Steiner at the beginning of the game
[looking for Princess Garnet], return to Queen Brahne to get a
free Silk Shirt. This is very useful against the plant monsters
in the Evil Forest.
Hints: Water Shrine reference:
This is also known as the Tower of Waltz. It sank into
the ocean long time ago when the evil forces destroyed the Water
Crystal.
Hints: 9999 damage with Atomost:
The formula For Dagger's summon Atomost is as follows:
Full Animation: [30+ Party's number of Amethysts]% of enemies
HP. Short Animation: 2/3 of Full Animation formula.
For example, if you have 70 Amethysts, it takes 100% of the enemies
HP off, with a limit of 9,999. This means an enemy with 12,000
health will lose 9,999. This is useful while training against
Yans, Grand Dragons, and other difficult enemies.
Hints: Early Lowell Autograph:
After seeing the Lowell Fans rant over him at his theater,
go directly to the Artists House in the Theater District and talk
to Lowell. He will ask you not to tell anyone, and give you an
autograph [key item].
Locke reference:
'In one of your first travels to Linblum early in
the game, next to the cab station is be a man named Locke.
Hints: 'Final Fantasy 7
Hints: Defeating Steiner:
For battle one, Cinna should steal on every turn. Attack
with Zidane and Blank only. For battle two, have Vivi cast Fire.
Use the rest to attack him. For battle 3, yse the same strategy
as battle two. Steal with Vivi and have him cast Fire.
reference:
'The music when you fight Hades is the same as the
Garden vs. Garden event in Final Fantasy 8.
After Alexandria is destroyed in Disc 3, go back in Disc 4. The
background music is the same when you are in Trabia [Selphie's]
Garden in Final Fantasy 8.
Hints: 'Legend Of Legaia
King Edgar reference:
'In the area on the World Map just outside Chocobo's
Forest, go onto the menu. It will state that this area is called
the 'King Ed Plains'.
Hints: 'Final Fantasy 3
Hints: Changing names:
You must have the Namingway card. Go to Daguerreo and
go to the inn. There is a ladder behind the library. Descend and
go left. Talk to the man on the left and he will offer you to
change your names if you just show him the Namingway card.
Hints: Defeating stone creatures:
Use a Soft on stone enemies, such as Gargoyle, to instantly
kill them. This trick will not work well with the spell Stona.
Hints: Change Airship altitude:
Put the Airship on auto-pilot, then hit Up
or Down to change its altitude while flying to your destination.
Hints: Defeating the Lifa Tree:
When fighting the Lifa Tree, simply cast 'Life'
on it and it will die instantly. It is an 'undead' creature,
so 'Life' is essentially 'Death'.
At the battle of the Lifa Tree, there is an easy way to make it
through this area with very little effort with the Stroupers [the
little tree-like creatures]. Use Soft on them. Because they are
made of stone, they will become too soft to live. This trick also
works at Ispen Castle against the Gargoyles and the Epithats.
Use Life against Dracozombies -- Phoenix Down has no effect. You
can use Life or Phoenix Down against Zombies. Against the Soulcage
and the bottom of the Lifa Tree, have Eiko or Dagger cast Life
upon it to win instantly. Also, do not throw away any of your
weapons. They will be needed at Ispen Castle, where your strongest
weapon will do the least amount of damage and vice versa. At that
location, Zidane's Angel Bliss and Dagger will do the most damage.
When you battle the Lifa Tree, use Ekio or Dagger's white magic
and cast Life on it.
When fighting the Soul of the Ancient Tree of Life, never use
a Fire spell. If this is done, it will counter-attack your entire
party with this Fire magic or do an attack that can deal over
700 HP of damage. Sometimes he may even use it two times in a
row that can immediately end the game. Instead, use others spells
such as Ice 2 or Bolt 2, which can do some very heavy damage on
him.
Have Dagger, Eiko, Vivi, and Zidane. Have Vivi Focus every time,
and Zidane Steal. Have no one else attack the Lifa Tree until
all items have been stolen. Once you have taken all of the items,
Vivi's magic power will be very high. Have Eiko cast Carbunckle.
On Vivi's next turn, cast the highest fire magic on all of your
players. It will hit the Lifa Tree for 9,999 damage, killing it
instantly.
Hints: Defeating Gizamaluke:
Have Vivi know Thunder [level 11]. Have the Ogre for
Zidane. Have Freya use Jump. Get Quina a Needle Fork and keep
attacking with it. Keep using those and you will eventually win
Before the battle, optimize your equipment to have the very best,
and have some Tents available. As soon as battle is joined, use
a Tent on him. It will cause Silence/Blind/Poison/Snake Bite statuses,
leaving him literally unable to attack. You can now steal his
items and destroy him.
Hints: Moogle suit and an autograph:
During the first time in Lindbum, all the fans love
Lowell. Follow him into the art room. Talk to him get an autograph
from Lowell himself. Look around in the room [by the chair] to
find another key item, a Moogle suit.
Hints: Namingway card:
At the Treno Card Tournament in Disc 3, view all of
the ATEs. When Vivi is trying to decide whether or not to head
home, tell him not to. The next ATE with Vivi in it will show
Mario getting a Namingway Card. In the second round of the tournament,
you will face Mario, and he should have multiple [probably two
or three] Namingway Cards along with other cards. Defeat him to
receive a Namingway Card before Kuja's Palace.
In Disc 3 re-enter the Kuja's Hideout and look around in his room.
The card may be found by books near the door.
Hints: Saved game Moogle:
When at the load or save menu, hit Select
to make the Moogle appear. The Moogle will tell you the levels
of all four possible characters, as well as HP status.
Hints: Hidden items:
At the beginning of the game when playing with Vivi,
go backwards. There should be an area that you search to find
about four cards, two Potions and one Elixir.
Hints: Defeating the Yans:
Use the following strategy to defeat the Yans at fairly
low levels. Equip your party as follows. Zidane at least at level
80, best equipment [Ninja Gear is essential], Auto-Life, Auto-Regen,
Auto-Haste, and Auto-Reflect; Steiner at least at level 74, best
equipment [Demons Mail is essential], Auto-Life, Auto-Reflect,
Auto-Regen, and Auto-Float; Vivi at least at level 56, best equipment
[Egoists Armlet is essential], Auto-Life, Auto-Regen, Auto-Reflect,
and Doomsday needs to be learned [Mace of Zeus, found in Memoria];
Eiko at least at level 75, best equipment [Egoists Armlet is essential],
Auto-Regen, Auto-Reflect, Carbuncle learned, and equip Diamond.
The Yan will probably get the first attack. When you can attack
use, Eiko's Carbuncle and it will cast Diamond Light [because
the Diamond is equipped], which will cast Vanish on the entire
party. When you can, use Steiner's Doomsday Sword. The Yan will
most likely snort Steiner out of the battle, but it does not matter
as he has done his part. Then. use Vivi's Doomsday spell to finish
them off. If for some reason Vivi fails to finish them, use Zidane's
attack to complete the battle.
To live during your fight against the Yans and get easy experience,
hold escape. When the Yan begins to chant the Comet spell. about
75% of the time it will miss you.
Yans are located on Vile Island, which you can only reach with
a Gold Chocobo. They appear two or three at a time and always
counter with Comet, Float, or Snort [makes character get blown
out of the fight]. To kill them with one hit, use Quina's Mustard
Bomb magic. The difficult part is staying alive until you get
to use it. You will get over 28,000 experience for the battle.
More experience is given if characters die, have virus, or are
snorted.
Hints: Steiner: Peeking:
When you reach Alexandrian territory as Steiner, he
will be carrying a bag of rotten stuff. That is actually Dagger.
When he goes to the corner of the alley, she will think of changing
into her costume while he is looking forward. You will get an
option for about five seconds to either keep looking or go to
the other side. Within those five seconds, if you have good reflexes,
you can also choose to look the other way.
Hints: Glitch: Fly through places:
When you get the control of an airship, you can fly
through places such Lindblum, Alexandria, South and North Gates,
mountains, and bridges. When near the place, rotate with L1
or R2 and you would see the second part of the ship.
Hints: Quina: Getting:
You can get Quina at Qu's Marsh [grassy area close
to Gizamaluke's Grotto that has a'?' next to it].
Hints: 'Final Fantasy reference:
'On Disc 3, the music at Mount Gulug is the same
as the music at Gurgu Volcano in Final Fantasy.
When you see Garnet as she appears from the royal box, she will
be wearing a white cloak with red parts on it. This cloak is what
the White Mages wore in Final Fantasy.
Hints: 'Final Fantasy 2
Hints: Defeating Griffin:
Use the following trick to defeat the Griffin easily
in Treno on Disc 2. When you first enter Treno, there are many
places you can go to. There is a woman selling weapons that has
a 'pet' Griffin. If you fight it, you might get something
special. Find the woman and challenge her Griffin. Make sure you
have a level 15 or higher Steiner with full life and the best
weapons. Also, make sure you have learned Minus Strike and Bird
Killer. Then, fight the Griffin. Make sure you have Good Luck.
First, hope that the Griffin does not use its Aero attack on you,
as it can kill you instantly. Start by attacking normally. When
the the Griffin does a high damaging attack on you, use the Minus
Strike. Once again, hope that it does not use Aero on you. Then,
when you get the chance, use a High-Potion. You should have twenty
by now. The Griffin will probably do another strong attack. Use
the Minus Strike once more, and it should die.
Hints: Defeating Bosses:
Have Vivi learn Reflect x 2 and Eiko use Carbunkle
or Dagger use Reflect on everyone. Then have Vivi chant the strongest
spell available and it will always do 9999 damage on any Boss.
Use the following if you are stuck on any Bosses from Disc 2 and
onwards. Use a Dark Matter [the orb that teaches Dagger Odin]
on the Boss. It is a very effective trick, as it does 9999 damage
on every enemy and boss, but beware it costs a lot to buy a new
one from the Auction House in Treno. This works well on the later
and final bosses [Chaos Guardians, Trance-Kuja, Necron, Deathguise,
Ozma, etc.]
Before you get into a Boss battle, save the game. There is always
a Moogle somewhere before a Boss. Use a tent after your save.
If you lose, you will still have your Tent. Just use Vivi's Black
Magic and attack with Zidane's Ogre. Dagger can help by using
items and Cure. Steiner can use Fire Sword. Quina and Freya can
attack.
Hints: Winning the Festival of the Hunt:
If you want Zidane to win the Festival of the Hunt,
make sure to equip him with The Ogre. One hit should be enough
to kill any monster in town. First, go to the end of the Theater
District, wait in front of the barrels for a moment, then kill
the Fang that appears. Next, go to the Business District and go
north. Kill the Fang on the left side of the screen, then head
down the right-hand path. You should see the Zaghnol. If not,
exit and re-enter until it appears. When you go to kill it, Freya
should appear to help you. Use her jump skill and have Zidane
attack. If Zidane kills the Zaghnol, he will be catapulted into
the lead. After winning, you will receive 5000 Gil.
If you want Freya to win, just kill Zidane. She will receive a
Coral Ring.
If you want Vivi to win, follow these instructions exactly. As
soon as you step off the tram, immediately get back on and head
to the Business District. Head north, fighting as few monsters
as possible, and take the left path into the church area. Kill
the Fang that is there, then head back out. Vivi should run by,
chased by a Fang. Kill the Fang that is chasing Vivi, then head
to the right-hand path, where the Zaghnol is located. When you
fight the Zaghnol, just have Zidane and Freya kill each other.
With luck, Vivi should win the Festival and get a Theater Ship
card.
Hints: Defeating Hades:
Create a party consisting of Zidane, Garnet, Steiner,
and anyone else [Amarant for example]. Everyone needs to have
their final weapon, with the exception of Steiner who should have
at least the Ragnorok. Also have Auto-Regen/Auto-Haste on. Everyone
must have armor that protects against Shadow. Hades will cast
Doomsday. Have Zidane be higher than level 55, Garnet higher than
level 50, and Steiner and your other character between 45 and
50. Also, prepare for all status effects. Hades will perform curse
about three rounds into the battle. When this happens use Remedies
or the Mini spell to get rid of the Mini status. Cure any other
status effects. Hades will then use Heave and Doomdays to leave
you in bad shape. Let Auto-Regen do the healing. Do not worry
if you cannot get ready fast enough. Have Steiner use 5 to 6 rounds
of Shock and Hades will not be able to hit you with Curse or Doomsday
again. Use Dagger for healing and attack with full force. Hades
will then let you Synth some of the best items. You can go back
without having to fight him again.
Have Zidane, Dagger/Garnet, Stiner,and Vivi. Have them all about
level 65 and fight Hades. Have Stiner with the Ragnorok and have
him use Shock. It should do 9,999 damage. Have Zidane attack.
Have Garnet heal or use Bahumat-.Have Vivi use Meteor and you
should defeat him by the time his sword gets charged. Note: It
might not work in this order; you may have to fight him more than
once.
Hints: 'Parasite Eve reference:
'When you go to the Synth Shop in Lindblum, there
are two men there. One's name is Torres and the other is named
Wayne. These two names are the names of the two gunsmiths in Parasite
Eve.
Hints: Use Amarant for gil and weapons:
If you have Amarant in your party, fight to earn money.
Once you have this money, buy extra weapons. In a Boss battle
you can do a lot of damage by throwing these weapons. Some examples
are: Gladius, Zorlin Shape, Rune Tooth, etc.
Hints: Hidden monster in book:
On Disc 3 in Alexandria, you have to search for Eiko
and Garnet [on the Eidion] inside the castle. Before you walk
up the tower to save her, make sure you go to the castle's library.
On the third shelf you can see a book. When the '?'
appears above Zidane's head, you will have two choices - Listen
or Ignore. Choose 'Listen' and the book will respond
'Challenge me if you dare'. Challenge it and you can
steal a few good items including Elixer, Silver Fork, Devil Mail,
and Ether. The book is not the actual enemy -- there is a creature
hidden in one of the pages. After every hit the book changes pages
with the monster hiding in one of them randomly. This is when
you are supposed to attack him with a strong attack, and he will
hide again.
Use physical attacks until the book opens up to the monster. When
it opens, do not attack the monster physically -- it will close
after one. Use Vivi's strongest magic -- magic attacks will not
close the book. When it is open, it can only use one attack which
is poisonous. Equip the Antibody ability to counter it.
All you need to have is the Angel Bliss and the Rebirth Ring equipped
to Zidane. Have Zidane near trance. At first, have everyone attack.
Before you find the book monster, it will attack with either Doom
or Paper Storm. By then Zidane will be in trance. Once you find
the book monster, use Grand Lethal. It will go back to hiding.
Repeat the process two more times and you will defeat it.
Hint: Finishing the security system in the desert palace: Your party all should be at about level 34,
and you should have
Amerant, Steiner, Freya, and Quina on your team. Make sure Amerant
has Return magic. When he does Firaga, Blizzaga, Thundaga, Amerant
will shoot it back.
Hints: Cargo ship model:
Mr.Morrid's coffees can be found at the following locations.
Provide all three to Mr. Morrid to get the cargo ship model [key
item].
Moccha coffee: Near the entrance of south gate.
Kirman coffee: On Eiko's back porch in Madin Sari.
Burman coffee: Get to the treasure chest in the windmill in Dali
Village. You will get 30,000 Gil. Check the chest again to find
the Burman coffee.
Hints: Early Iron Sword:
While Fighting Baku in the destroyed Prima Vista, steal
a Broadsword and defeat him. When you defeat the Plant Brain in
Evil Forest and get Blank in you party, go to Equip on Blank and
trade the stolen Broadsword for Blank's Iron Sword. Equip Steiner
with it.
When fighting the plant-thing that captures Vivi, steal from it.
You will eventually get an Iron Sword. When you get Steiner in
your party, equip him with it.
Hints: Alexandria card:
Wait until Alexandria is destroyed by Invincible [the
big eye in the sky] at the start of Disc 3. Go to the center of
the town and hit Square to challenge the little girl
who is chasing the boy. She will say 'Here, I found this
card in the rubble. You can have it.' She will give you the
card.
Hints: Vivi: Stronger magic:
Summon Carbuncle and then cast Fira or something reflectable.
Usualy Vivi's Fira will do 500 damage. With everyone with reflect
it will do 2000 and so on.
Make sure you have the Flare ability. Focus three times, then
use Flare. It will do 9999 damage. It will do no more damage if
you focus four or more times. You can do it with Firaga, Blizzaga,
or thundaga if you Focus about five times.
Hints: Early abilities and easy levels:
After leaving Lindblum when Garnet and Steiner leave,
go to the Chocobo Forest. Get all of the Chocographs you can.
Get all the ones nearby. Go through Gizamaluke's Grotto and head
west to reach a beach with some Chocobo tracks. Call Choco and
find the treasure chest nearby. Now you have the River Chocobo.
Go back through the Grotto and to Chocobo's Forest. Call Choco
and head to the island south of you. Get the chest there and go
northwest past Lindblum. There is an island west of the continent
you can reach for the Bird's Eye Lagoon Chocograph.
When Garnet, Marcus, and Steiner go to Treno, watch the Treno
Tradition ATE. Then go to the Synthesis Shop's hallway and talk
to the thief. He will give you an add-on he bought with the stolen
money. Then, get Garnet from the Auction House. Buy all the add-ons
you can, especially the Reflect Ring. Go outside to learn as many
abilities as you can. Note: the Friendly ghost can be found near
the entrance to South Gate. Go back into Treno and synthesize
any add-ons that you need. Synth two Coral Rings [only get one
if Freya won the Hunt]. If you need materials, go through South
Gate to Dali. Go to Quan's Dwelling near Treno and take the Stellazzio
coin there. Get the prizes for the Stellazzio. Take off the add-ons
before getting the Supersoft.
When you get control of Zidane again, take the time to let Vivi
and Quina learn Auto-Reflect. Go into the room with the two Mogs
and save. Provide Zidane and Freya Coral Rings. Equip everyone with
the Antibody skill. Equip Auto-Reflect on Quina and Vivi. Now,
the only attack from the Grand Dragons that can hurt you is Poison
Claw, because it is a physical attack. Put everyone in the back
row and have Freya Jump, Zidane Attack or Dyne, Vivi use Bio and
Quina use Potions or High Potions as needed. The Grand Dragon
gives each character 8800 experience if everyone survives [which
is not likely at first].
Hints: Cloud reference:
In Lindblum's weapon shop, Zidane will get a [!] over
his head and mention something about a guy with spiky hair that
had a sword just like the one on the wall.
Hints: Quina: Blue Magic:
Quina is actually a very helpful character. The only
problem is, you have to level him/her/it up and give him/her/it
abilities. Quina's Blue Magic is very powerful, not for dealing
damage, but for getting your opponents to the point where they
cannot fight back. Mighty Guard casts Shell and Protect. This
greatly improves defense. Bad Breath makes an attempt at every
negative status in the game focused on one opponent. LV5 Death
kills all the targets on the screen whose experience levels are
multiples of 5. Magic Hammer, which basically knocks off MP. Magic
Hammer is by far one of the most useful. It can make Trance Kuja,
Necron, and Ozma helpless. Magic Hammer can decimate anywhere
from 1 MP to 9999 MP. Keep using it until your opponent has no
more MP. Death Sentence is helpful if the enemy is weak against
it. If you have finished the Frog Catching side quest and defeated
Quale in battle, then Frog Drop is one of the best attacks; 9999
HP for 10 MP.
Hints: Chocobo Evolution locations:
River Chocobo: Healing Shore Mountain Chocobo: Dawn Lagoon [requires River Chocobo] Ocean Chocobo:
Green Plains [requires Mountain Chocobo] Golden Chocobo: Get all six Chocograph pieces
Hints: Star Trek reference:
When looking for the potions to turn Cid into a human
again, talk to the supervisor near the lazy worker. Ask about
the potions to get Bones McCoy's catch phrase yelled at you.
Hints: Ragtime Mouse:
If you find the Ragtime Mouse [it resides in wooded
areas] and properly answer its questions, you can earn some extra
Gil. Answer by choosing either 'True' nor 'False.'
The mouse will then give you Gil in return for each correct answer,
as well as keep track of your percentages. Some locations the
Ragtime Mouse have been known to inhabit include Gunitas Basin,
Lindblum Plateau, Bentini Heights, Lucid Plains, Pualei Plains,
and Alexandria Plateau. The rewards for correct answers in a row
