VIVI ORNITIER
Vivi's the game's li'l black mage, who tags along with the party after he
ends up "hitching a ride" accidentally with the Tantalus band. He's got low
HP and defense, naturally, but his later equipment and magick abilities
blow enemies out of the water. Definitely a good character to use when the
need to play on elemental weaknesses arises.

ADELBERT STEINER
Steiner's the captain of Alexandria's "Knights of Pluto" brigade, and though

his head appears to be full of rocks, his unwavering devotion to his kingdom
and the princess shows how easy he passes through indignation of all sorts.
He's a knight and uses sword skills, as well as elemental sword abilities if
Vivi's in the party. Later on, his Shock attack is a guaranteed 9999-dmg
attack, making him one of the prime damage dealers. He never gets a lot of
MP, though...

PRINCESS GARNET TIL ALEXANDROS XVII
Known more affectionately as 'Garnet' and, later on, 'Dagger,' she is the
heir apparent to Alexandria Kingdom's throne. But, trouble seems to be afoot
and she asks Tantalus to help her escape to the neighboring regency of
Lindblum. Things go wrong, and long story short, she ends up staying for a
lot longer than planned. She's mostly an offensive summoner, but moonlights
as a (mediocre) white mage as well -- both can be pulled off, though. She
uses rods as a weapon, but can also use Rackets like Eiko.

FREYA CRESCENT
A wandering dragon knight from the kingdom of Burmecia, she's been searching
for her lost love Sir Fratley for years. She re-encounters Zidane during the
Festival of the Hunt events in Lindblum, and joins thereafter. She uses a
lance/polearm and can 'Jump' like dragoons in past FFs, dealing more damage
than normal. She's also the only other character who can equip heavy armor

QUINA QUEN
Quina is...uh, a bit weird. S/he has no known gender, and hails from a swamp
by Lindblum, so it's quite possible s/he developed from frogs... Either way,
s/he is a gourmand who's got an insatiable hunger for food, and can eat foes
and learn their abilities in blue mage fashion. His/her weapon deals random
damage for the most part, but his/her weapons are invaluable in some cases.
Just don't get between Quina and a plate of munchies...

EIKO CAROL
Eiko's a little girl living alone in a deserted village, with only moogles
as her friends. When the party stumbles across her near Conde Petie, they
form a bond and she ends up joining. Unlike other little girls, she's fiery
and not quite as dull as some party members. Plus, she can use white magic
like Dagger (with more potency) and defensive-type summons. Her Carbuncle
and Fenrir summons can change their effect depending on her accessory, and
that gives her a versatile edge. She uses flutes as her main weapon, but
can also equip rackets.

AMARANT CORAL
A wanted man in Treno, this outlaw's been searching for the man who framed
him long ago with only revenge in mind. He eventually joins up to see if he
can wrap his mind around Zidane's principles. Mr. Coral uses his claws to
inflict great damage, and has skills reminiscent of monks, such as Chakra,
and ninja (see Throw command). Many of his skills are very, very worthwhile.

ii. TRANCE [TRNC]
_____________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Trance is FFIX's answer to the limit breaks in past FFs. To achieve Trance,
one must let the little red bar under the ATB gauge fill up by taking damage
(High Tide skill helps fill faster). When the bar reaches the end, that ally
will be able to use their "super ability," whatever that may be. There are a
few things you should know, though.
* If you end the battle without using your Trance, the bar depletes ALL the
| way. Thus, if you're close to achieving one, let the enemies attack you
| before inputting your commands; this way you don't accidentally waste it
| like the millions of people before you. <raises hand>
|
* Trance can be used multiple times during battle, and as it's used (for any
| command, not just the one that appears during the state), the bar will go
| down. When it depletes, the Trance ends.
|
* Getting hit with 'Zombie' status fully depletes your bar, and does not go
start to go up until alleviated.
Here are the character overviews in this department.

Zidane gets the 'Dyne' command when in Trance. What skills he can use are
dependant on his abilities he knows (they're all non-elemental). This may
be a little off, but it's something like:
.------------------.-----.-----.-----------------------------------------.
| ABILITY | TGT | MP | LEARN PERMANENTLY BY MASTERING... |
|------------------+-----+-----|-----------------------------------------|
| Free Energy | One | 10 | Flee |
| Tidal Flame | All | 12 | Detect |
| Scoop Art | One | 14 | What's That!? |
| Shift Break | All | 16 | Soul Blade |
| Stellar Circle 5 | One | 24 | Annoy |
| Meo Twister | All | 32 | Sacrifice |
| Solution 9 | One | 48 | Lucky Seven |
| Grand Lethal | All | 60 | Thievery |
'------------------'-----'-----'-----------------------------------------'
For everyone else:
.---------.----------.-----------------------------------------------------.
| ALLY | TRANCE | TRANCE EFFECT... |
|---------+----------+-----------------------------------------------------|
| Vivi | Dbl Blk | Can cast two spells consecutively each turn |
| Eiko | Dbl Wht | Can cast two spells consecutively each turn |
| Quina | Cook | Can 'Eat' enemies with 1/2 HP instead of norm 1/4th |
| Dagger | Eidolon | Summoned eidolons can return on their own for no MP |
| Amarant | Elan | The 'Flair' abilities now affect all allies/enemies |
| Freya | -------- | Stays in 'Jump' mode and 'Spear' affects all foes |
| Steiner | -------- | His physical damage rises by 300% (I think...) |
'---------'----------'-----------------------------------------------------'
_____________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
iii. ELEMENTS [LMNT]
_____________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Some skills and weapons are imbued with certain 'elements,' which give them a
special property. Likewise, some enemies are weak to 'elements' and preying
on those weaknesses allows extra damage to be done. Here's is the equilibrium
in a sense:
Fire <-> Ice

Earth <-> Wind
Holy <-> Shadow
Thunder <-> Water
So, fire does way more damage to ice, and vice versa; earth does way more
damage to wind, and vice versa...you get the picture. Using the 'Scan'
ability can reveal elemental weaknesses so you can strike the achilles' heel
easily...if you're prepared.
_____________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
iv. STATUS ABNORMALITIES [STTB]
_____________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Status abnormalities are 'effects' that change one's status from normal to
good...or bad. With the exception of Zombie, KO, Doom, and Virus, all of the
ones you don't want to face can be cured with Remedies or the Esuna ability.
Being in Trance also cancels all harmful effects, besides Virus, Petrify, and
Zombie.
.-----------------.-------------------------------------------.---------------.
| ABNORMALITY | EFFECT | SPECIFIC CURE |
|-----------------|-------------------------------------------|---------------|
| KO | Can't participate in battle | Phoenix Down |
| Heat | If command is input, character is KO'd | ------------- |
| Mini | Attack/Defense decrease | ------------- |
| Slow | ATB Gauge fills slower | ------------- |
| Stop | ATB Gauge does not fill | ------------- |
| Sleep | Character cannot act for a short time | ------------- |
| Virus | Cannot recieve after-battle EXP/AP | Vaccine |
| Venom | Stop + HP/MP drain effect | Antidote |
| Freeze | Can't act; physical attacks instantly KO | ------------- |
| Poison | HP gradually decreases | Antidote |
| Zombie | Curative items damage HP | Magic Tag |
| Berserk | Attack enemy blindly | Gysahl Greens |
| Confuse | Randomly attacks enemies and allies alike | ------------- |
| Petrify | Can't participate in battle | Soft |
| Silence | Cannot use magic commands | Echo Screen |
| Trouble | Target's allies receive 1/2 damage done | Annoyntment |
| Darkness | Physical attack accuracy decreased | Eye Drops |
| Death Sentence | When timer ends, Death is inflicted | ------------- |
| Gradual Petrify | When timer ends, Petrify is inflicted | Soft |
'-----------------'-------------------------------------------'---------------'
NOTES:
* Phoenix Pinions can also be used to cure KO
* Auto-Haste will permanently guard against Slow
* Those in Zombie status also get empty Trance gauges
* Those in Zombie status do not receive any EXP/AP after battle
* Those in Zombie status are refilled to full when Death/Doom is used
* Enemies who are in Stop/Petrify status only drop AP, not EXP/Items/Gil.
Now for the good statuses you WANT to be 'inflicted' with:
.-----------------.-----------------------------------------------------------.
| ABNORMALITY | EFFECT |
|-----------------|-----------------------------------------------------------|
| Haste | Character's ATB gauge fills up much quicker than normal |
| Regen | Character's HP refills gradually at set time intervals |
| Float | Characters in this status evade earth-elemental attacks |
| Shell | Character takes reduced damage from magickal attacks |
| Vanish | Character cannot be hit with physical/weapon attacks |
| Protect | Character takes reduced damage from physical attacks |
| Reflect | Magic used on character bounce back onto their executor |
| Auto-Life | Character is automatically revived (once) upon being KO'd |
'-----------------'-----------------------------------------------------------'
NOTES:
* All effects wear off besides Auto-Life; you need to die to remove it.
* Float status makes the character(s) more susceptible to wind-type damage.

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
v. AP SYSTEM [APSS]
_____________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
AP (Ability Points) are obtained from defeating enemies, and are used to make
characters' dormant abilities come out of equipment. A bit about this:
* AP is obtained no matter how you win a battle

* Characters in Zombie, Virus, KO, and Petrify status do not receive AP
* A character with the 'Ability Up' skill doubles the AP earned for him/her
Here's how one of Zidane's would look without AP earned for it:
__________________________
| | "The Tower" is the name of the thief sword,
| [THE TOWER] | with the two skills that can be learned on
| | the list under it. The "<>" will change by
| <> Lucky Seven [0/85] | two different means:
| <> Thievery [0/100] |
| | 01) It will be "A" or "S", which stand for
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ action or support abilities, respectfully.
Action abilities are used in battle, while
the other are 'passive' and augment or
enhance the character superficially in
some way.
02) It will be red/blue/gray. If it's red, it means the action ability is

learned fully and can be used at any time in battle; if it's blue, it
means the ability has been learned AND is equipped on the character. If
either is gray, it means the ability has not been learned fully yet.
---
The [0/85] part, for instance, tells how many AP have been earned (0) and the
maximum (85) needed to learn. The equipment with the ability 'inside' it is
'teaching' the ability, we'll say. If you unequip the sword or armor before
the ability is learned, you can't use it -- you haven't been taught it all
the way. When it's learned, and three stars show in place of the AP gauge,
you've mastered the skill and it may be used whenever.

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
vi. SYNTHESIS SHOPS [SNTH]
_____________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
This is fairly easy to understand, but I figure I'll go over it anyway...
When you reach Lindblum, and then later on, synthesis shops will show up from
time to time. These allow you to make new equipment from two pieces of older
stuff. A few notes on this:
* To create a new weapon you must have the gil needed and the two pieces of
equipment IN your inventory, i.e. not equipped on anyone.
* Once the item is synthesized, the two items used to make it are gone from
the inventory...you've used them up, and will have to buy new ones to make
more.
* Some components, like the Zorlin Shape, quit being sold later on in the
game; thus, if you use 'em up, you may lose out on an ability. Keep track
of the unlearned abilities so that you don't miss out.

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
vii. TIPS AND TRICKS [TPST]
_____________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Here are some tips that I wrote, and some submitted by my buddies at the
GameTalk FF9 boards. Hope they'll prove useful in your hour of darkness.
<> Some black/white magic can be spread around a group of targets, making
it easier to inflict statuses or heal more than one target. The effect
usually weakens a bit (or may decrease probability of success in some
cases, I think) but is invaluable nonetheless. Toggle the settings in
battle by using L1/R1.
<> The "Cotton Robe Trick" is an easy way to make money later on, since it
uses 2 cheap components to make a 610g profit. To do this, when in Dali,
buy up a whole bunch of 'Wrist' items for 130g apiece. Then, in Lindblum,
buy a whole bunch of Steepled Hats for 260g. At the first synthesis shop,
slap 'em together for 1000g combination fee and then sell the product for
a cool 2000g -- profit!
<> The "tent trick" mentioned throughout the guide involves...well, a regular
old Tent. While these can heal in-battle, a lot of the time they inflict
the target with Poison/Darkness/Silence in addition. The cool thing is
this applies to the enemy as well, and can make some bosses (Gizamaluke,
for instance) ten times easier.
<> When in Ipsen's Castle, there is a monster called 'Agares' who appears w/
a petrified Gargoyle. Remember how it's recommended that you equip crappy
weapons here so they do more damage? In this case, don't bother -- equip a
Sargatanas. When you get in battle, use Soul Blade on Agares to end the
battle...and the Gargoyle will instantly die, giving you EXP/AP. Who said
ya don't get EXP/AP from petrify? =p
<> "If you equip your entire with Auto-Reflect and have Vivi do either
Firaga, Blizzaga, or Thundaga on ALL four of YOUR party members, it
bounces back with 4x the effectiveness and hits for 9,999 HP EVERY time
EXCEPT against Ozma. The only time it didn't work with me was against
Ozma." -- FF9Freak
<> "If you can, equip Auto-Regen to every ally and Boost to Eiko and Garnet.
When in protracted boss fights, where chances to heal are iffy, have Eiko
or Garnet summon whichever eidolon they currently have learned (and has
the longest animation). During the full animation, your party will
continuously regain HP, and may even be restored to full health by the
time the animation ends." - Mel's Cross Hinder
<> "Anytime you reach a new area (town, etc) scour the place for the Traveler
Moogle (Stiltzkin), and buy whatever he's selling at the moment. If you
succeed in buying all of his wares throughout the game, in Disk 4 you can
find him in Alexandria, and he'll reward you with a free Ribbon." -- Mel's
Cross Hinder
<> If you equip two items that teach the same ability, that ability will gain
AP twice as fast. This doesn't work for all 100+ AP skills, but it helps
for some like Half MP or Reflectx2.
<> "Just thought I'd mention a great place to AP-farm on Disc 3 (at the
earliest) that seems like it would be overlooked by most. You know the
Qu's Marsh on the island to the west of the Forgotten Continent? Well,
the island may have Grand Dragons on it, but it's the Adamantoises
(EXP:1274 when divvied up between all four party members/AP: 3/Gil:4433).
The only things to watch for are, of course, the island's other monsters,
Gimme Cats & Grand Dragons on the plains and Whale Zombies on the beach."
- Sypher_Kyaeon
<> "Stats acquired from Marcus transfer to Eiko, so training Marcus to 99 when
you have him in Treno is very important. If you have collected Stellazzios
(to get the Blood Sword) and own a turbo controller, this is easy. Oh,
you'll also need two rubber bands.
First, purchase some potions or other healing items. Then, open the hatch
in Tot's place to the Gargan Roo. Equip the Blood Sword to Marcus and
whatever equipment you want him to level up with (for stats that will
transfer to Eiko, so go with stuff for magic). Save.
When that is done, enter a battle down there. Kill off Garnet and Steiner
and win the battle. You should get an incredible amount of EXP if you
encounter the red enemies. Heal if necessary and repeat the process until
Marcus is at a strong enough level to survive solely on his Blood Sword,
even when two of the big red enemies are present. When this level of
strength is obtained, save your game.
Now you need to prepare for your auto training. Head down and left from the
moogle into the other screen. Head to the right side of the screen and part
of the stone doorway (that you passed through upon entering the screen)
should jut out. Head behind this (so only part of Garnet will be showing)
and then turn the analog stick left. Garnet should run continually into the
wall without going anywhere. Believe it or not, running in place starts
battles."
When this is achieved, then set rapid fire on the X button and then use a
rubber band to hold the X button down. Then use the other rubber band to
hold the analog stick to the left. This should do it. Garnet will run into
the wall and when a battle starts, Marcus will attack, and heal himself.
This process will repeat and you'll gain EXP, gil, and items. Every once in
a while, come back and stop, so that you can sell all 99 of whatever item
you've acquired and to save. Then repeat until Marcus is 99. You can
continue even longer for money, but you'll be rich enough by then, I think.
In the end, you'll have a really strong Marcus, tons of money, and later
on, an Eiko who will have about 10-15 more in each of her stat attributes,
depending on what equipment you had." -- Everyone's Grudge

Once the opening credits have passed, a character aboard a huge ship sailing
a sea of mist will go belowdecks and into a dark room. When you can move him
around, search the northern confines of the room for a [47 GIL] + [POTION].
Light the candle after the looting's done to name the prehensile-tailed man
-- default: Zidane. A small boss fight ensues when Zidane's colleagues emerge
from behind a door.

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Zidane's friends (Cinna, Marcus, Blank) join him for this joke battle,
and all have the 'Steal' command, which allows them a chance at swiping
one of the guy's items. The only one you'll want to get here is the
Mage Masher, which is a weapon for Zidane (and better than his current
one). Four regular physical attacks from anyone sans Cinna, who does
pitiful damage, should take him out...but get that Mage Masher! Cinna
may die, but don't waste a phoenix down on him. Oh, and the battle
system is set on 'WAIT' so while you're accessing a menu, battle action
stops until you've chosen. Not that you need to choose carefully or
anything...
Afterwards, everyone rushes into the next room while the un-Masked Man Baku,
who is the ringleader for the thieves, goes over the plan. Answer "That's
when I kidnap Princess Garnet, right?" to change the view over to a new
character, only addressed as "??????" at the moment...

After the mysterious "??????" kid is given his ticket back, head south from
the side-street into a statue's screen. Move the kid towards you (the player)
and look by the green object in the SW corner -- it's a [ZOMBIE CARD]. Take
a look behind the statue as well, to find a [POTION]. Now, head as far away
from you (the player) so that the mysterious boy is obscured by the statue.
There's a [LIZARD MAN CARD] to find on some doorstep. Find the [SAHAGIN CARD]
by another doorstep nearby. You can't leave town, so return to the previous
street.
Get the [POTION] left of where you enter, under the house's eaves, and enter
the house on the right where an old woman is using a spindle. Check the
ground floor for another [POTION]; then, climb up the ladder. A [FANG CARD]
can be found in the bureau up there, and [9 GIL] near the bed on the ground
floor. Exit onto the street again.
A "Rat Kid" will bump into you and leave again -- follow him north, getting
another [POTION] by a barrel of apples. Watch the nobles advance down the
street and check the foreground's grass for [33 GIL] and a [GOBLIN CARD].
Enter the bar when done. Check around the stools for another [POTION], [FLAN
CARD], and [27 GIL]. Down the street, there's a shop still open if you want
to check it out [LINK: SH01]. Even if you don't want to buy anything, there's
a [38 GIL] deposit on the floor. Back on the street, enter the main square.
To the east is two doors, where the synthesis shop is (closed now) -- there's
a nice [ETHER] on the floorboards, and a [REMEDY] next door in the weapons
shop (also closed) counter-side. Exit back outside, and go to the top of
the screen (north) and find the [PHOENIX PINION] by the wagon wheel. You can
do a jump-rope mini-game here as well [LINK: JMPR], as well. Talk to Hippaul
in the square to learn he's hid his three "precious" cards somewhere -- go
to the church and get the [IRONITE CARD], [FANG CARD], and [GOBLIN CARD]
(poor hippo-face ;-;). While you're here, raid Ilia's house next door where
there is [EYE DROPS] and [3 GIL] -- she can't be in the house for the latter
one, though.
Also, in the church, there is a [TENT] and [POTION] by the fence, so be sure
to get those, too. Talk to the NPC Tom by the church to learn his cat's gone
missing; you can find it in the statue entrance to town. Return to him and
he'll fork over a [BOMB CARD] for your altruism.
---
Finally, when you're done walking around, go to the ticketmaster booth in

the town square. Show him your ticket and he'll give you a [GOBLIN CARD], as
well as a [FANG CARD] and [SKELETON CARD]. Enter the alleyway by the church
to find the rat kid again; agree to be his slave to see the night's play. He
will ask "??????" to stand guard -- say it's all clear and Ratty'll steal the
signmaker's ladder. A four-armed man walks into the alley at this point and
will steal gil from you he bumps into the kid; if you talk to him, however,
ask him if he's Alleyway Jack; you can then learn the Tetra Master tutorial
from him in the bar. When done, follow the rat kid to the church.
Try to climb up to the belltower and a moogle named Kupo will fall on the
mysterious kid. Moogles can save the game and will ask you to deliver mail
if you inquire about the 'Mognet' option, which you should do. Accept to
deliver the [LETTER: KUPO -> MONTY] and climb up the ladder, giving access
to the Alexandrian rooftops.
---
After crossing the second rooftop, get the [29 GIL] in the chimney nearby
and follow north to where ratso is. He'll ask the kid's name, and you can dub
this character at last [Default: Vivi]; he'll also give his own name, which
is Puck.
Once Puck scoots out of the way, enter the open-roofed house and follow the
walkways to another chimney with [63 GIL] within. North of that open-roofed
house is a [92 GIL]-stuffed chimney. Follow to Puck and the view will change
to the play.
Whew, that long stretch is out of the way.

You've got the same four thieves as last time, except the 'Steal' command
has been changed to SFX, where stage magic is used to dazzle the crowd...
meaning it does no damage. Benero/Zenoro will go down in one hit, and the
incognito Baku doesn't take much either. Funny how Cinna is still such an
easy target...but then again, he's better at dying than fighting, right?
King Leo "dies" in about five regular hits from the _real_ warmongers.

As the dramatic play rolls on, a swordfight scene will occur in which the
player can do button combinations and impress nobles for cash and items (the
latter which you get in awhile).
.------------.------------. There are one hundred (100) nobles in attendance

| # TO AMUSE | REWARD | and you get varying rewards after ending, which
|------------'------------| is based on how fast you press the corresponding
| * 00 -> 49 = Ether | buttons and if those buttons are correct. The
| * 50 -> 79 = Elixir | best reward, of course, is the Moonstone, which
| * 80 -> 99 = Silk Shirt | is a rare accessory (finite in number) that you
| * 100 ---> = Moonstone | will want to try and get. If you don't get it the
'-------------------------' first time, you can always take the audience up
on their 'encore,' which lets you have another
shot at doing the fight. There are fifty commands to put in, so this can be
a bit of a trial. You can get another Moonstone at a later time, so don't
beat yourself up over not getting the best reward. You can try saying each
button out loud, which may help with the coordination (does for me). Whatever
amount you get, the crowd throws [??? GIL] at you, where the '???' is the
appropriate number. Blank and Zidane walk off-stage, into the castle proper...
---
Once the two have put the incompetent on-duty knights into sleepy-by land,
go up the stairs (only way to go) to encounter a girl in white. Talk to her
and she'll run away; the view then switches to Queen Brahne and her two
bodyguards, one of which you can name [Default: Steiner]. After some hilarious
scenes, Steiner can do a little "game" where he rounds up his AWOL squad.
The object is to send everyone out searching for the errant princess. However,
before you do anything, go talk to Queen Brahne and she'll give you the reward
that was dependant on Blank/Zidane's performance, and search the guardhouse
Blank/Zidane were in for a [PHOENIX DOWN].
Save in the guardhouse and send Blutzen/Kohel out to look (there's a squad
list in here on the wall), then head to the twin-stairway hall. Steiner'll
see a person running, but every time he gets close, that person runs the
opposite way. That's Dojebon, and to talk to him, wait near the middle of
the balcony until his path is clear and bumrush him. The east wing dining
room nearby has another Pluto Knight, Mullenkedheim, waiting for food. Talk
to him, and go downstairs.
At the stairbottom, go into the library to find Laudo. Send him out searching
and then re-enter the library. Laudo will be hiding behind a bookcase, out of
view (so mash the action button to find him). This will send him out looking
permanently. Outside, head towards the lakeside and talk to Haagen, to get
him all worked up over the disappearance. Then, go west to the tower's base.
Weimar is flirting with a knight here and leaves after Steiner yells at him.
Then, enter the tower's spiral stairs to find the last knight, Breireicht.
Talk to him twice and, if you've found everyone, he'll give an [ELIXIR] to
his captain. Climb to the top of the stairs to get see another funny scene,
bringing everyone to the Prima Vista once again.

Talk to Ruby and pursue Garnet downstairs. After Cinna gets ridiculed, he'll
lead everyone to an escape hatch in the adjacent room. Down amongst the
engines, move the turncrank to the left and right; this lets a [PHOENIX DOWN]
and [PHOENIX PINION] chest drop to the ground floor. Equip Zidane with that
Mage Masher if you want and enter the adjacent room. A...uh, boss fight will
take place.

It's Cinna/Blank/Zidane vs. Rusty! No skills to speak of, which gives you
a lot of time to steal his equipment. It's generally very easy -- can't

Vivi, Marcus, Zidane, and Garnet are fighting this joke battle. If you
select Cure/Fire, you can use the L1/R1 button to spread it out among all
the enemies. This diludes the attack a bit, but it's a good way to take
out any crappy foes (you can cure everyone in this way, too). The thief
characters are penalized here, still having the SFX command for no real
reason, but it doesn't affect the outcome.

A moogle here introduces the "ATE" system, standing for Active Time Events.
It allows one to see (w/ Select) events happening elsewhere at that exact

by the recovered commodities for a [PHOENIX DOWN] before saving. Head south
through the wooden log; two screens later, another boss fight comes your way.

It's just Zidane and Steiner for this, with the former getting 'Trance'
at the start -- this game's equivalent of a limit break. You can use Free
Energy twice on the monster to kill it (if you have Tidal Flame, DO NOT
use it or you will kill Garnet). Throw Garnet a potion after its second
Absorb, or that's another way to get a game over. Don't bother wasting
the Trance to steal, 'cause it ain't got anything.
Immediately after, there is...another...boss fight. ^____^

Vivi will be trapped in the fleshy cage this time, but unlike Garnet, he
will fight back, using 'Fire' to do around eighty damage to the thing.
Like before, be wary of Vivi's HP and use a Potion after the 2nd Absorb.
Try to steal its equipment before Vivi broils this piece of broccoli.
Everyone ends up back at the Prima Vista...

When you regain control of Zidane on the bridge, open the [BRONZE GLOVES]
chest by Baku and go downstairs. View the ATEs if you want and open the
[WRIST], then enter the room Blank came out of. Open the [ETHER] chest and
get the [116 GIL] cache on top of the bunk bed. Talk to Vivi and go Blank'll
suggest talking to the Boss about leaving with the knight and black mage.
Enter the side passage where Marcus guards Steiner's door and get an [ETHER]
by the door; then, go downstairs.
All the musicians are here. Search the northern confines for a [RUBBER HELM]
and enter the southern door, towards the ship's new exit. A [LEATHER HAT] is
among the rubble. Backtrack a room and enter the room where the Tantalus
thieves went over the kidnap plan awhile back -- Baku's there. He says he's
going to bust Zidane up for breaking the rules...boss fight coming! Get the
[POTION] before returning to the cargo room. Agree to fight, get the show on
the road (equip Mage Masher first)!

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
That Iron Sword will be useful for Steiner, so don't finish this battle
without getting it. His attacks all do about 25-35 dmg, except for the
one where he falls and idles. Pretty easy, 'specially with the Mage
Masher which can hit for 80+ dmg.
Having lost, Baku gives his OK about letting Zidane go out and search. Return
upstairs and get Steiner from the instrument closet. There's an unopened
[ETHER] chest in there, too. Visit Vivi and he will join the party, too.
After a secret 'conference,' Steiner will learn a new command (Sword Magic)
which lets him use magically-imbued sword attacks...if Vivi is in the party
and not KO'd. Equip Vivi with a Silk Shirt if you have one, and the Leather
Wrist as well -- this'll let him learn Blizzard and Thunder magick. Steiner
should get the Iron Sword/Bronze Gloves, which you should have. >=p
Downstairs, Blank bestows the key item [BLANK'S MEDICINE] upon you, then say
how to set abilities (Menu -> Ability -> Equip). Outside the wreckage Cinna
has set up shop [LINK: SH02] and Mosco will have a letter for Zidane. Enter
back into the forest proper.
---
Fight some Fangs/Goblins to level everyone up a bit (level three is good).

At the fourth screen through the rather straightforward forest, there's a
spring (refresh HP/MP only) and another moogle. Save here and give Monty
a letter if you've got one, then read Stiltzkin's. If you want a tent, you
can steal one from Dendrobium enemies. Anywho, head out the other end of the
spring to see an FMV; one more screen finds Garnet, in the clutches of the
biggest weed you've ever seen. Equip Silk Shirts around, since they halve
thunder damage.

Have Steiner use his Swd Mgc's "Fire Sword", which will hit 100% of the
time, even with darkness put on everyone. After ~950dmg has been dealt,
Blank will show up as the fourth party member. It shouldn't be too hard
to do consistant damage, but if you want that Iron Helm steal, eating a
bunch of damage from the affect-all Thunder attack will take awhile. Use
Blank as the second stealer to get that helm, then spam Fire Sword to
bring it down (does 440+dmg).
Afterwards, there's havoc (!) and intrigue (!) as some spiders crawl outta
the Plant Brain's husk. Everyone runs to the next passage. If you want a 3rd
Silk Shirt, take Blank's. Continue down the path until you get to a pincer
attack (mandatory) with some Plant Spiders. After, unequip Blank of anything
you may want and go to the next screen. Everyone gets chased to the exit, and
it's onto the overworld...almost.
---
After a campout session, Monty the Moogle will give Zidane the key item
[MOOGLE'S FLUTE], which allows him to summon a moogle on the world map for
tent/save features (use square button). The ATE "Teach Me, Mogster!" Lesson
1 also plays, but you don't have to view all the tutorials. Do so, though, if
you're fuzzy on the game's properties.

Here's a map of the Gunitas basin -- Zidane's party starts by the Evil Forest
exit (can't re-enter) and can head towards the Ice Cavern (destination) or
the North Gate far to the west. The South Gate is across the river and isn't
accessible at the moment, nor will it be for awhile. Monsters in this region
are just the Pythons, Goblins, and Mus. Equip Garnet with clothing articles
because she won't have any (pervert!).

Head to the southern cliff wall, southwest of Evil Forest, to find the icy
entrance to a winter wonder--...well, it ain't that nice. As Baku said when
Zidane left, don't forget about your abilities -- use up those Magic Stones
before entering!

ZIDANE: Lv. 4
Tidal Flame is such a nice source of genocide, ending the battle in two
turns once you're in Trance. Besides that, it's mostly ice-elemental
attacks and weak physical ones, on occasion. Tsunami hits everyone on the
field, although the Sealion's immune to water. The Mythril Dagger Sealion
carries can teach Zidane the 'Bandit' skill, which improves his stealing
ability -- don't finish this battle without it! 'Sides that, drink a
potion if Zidane's HP dips below the 80-100 range and you'll do fine.
The strange mist stops afterwards, so return to the awakened party to hear
some funny accusations from Steiner. Once everyone's regrouped, head up the
steep cliffside by where the Black Waltz was and exit out into the sunshine.
Garnet decides that she'll need a new name if she's to mask her identity,
and chooses one [Default: Dagger], which is what this walkthrough'll continue
to call her from now on. Exit into the Nolrich Heights, where the Pythons,
Carve Spiders, and Mus roam.
o----------------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Ragtime Mouse True and False |
o----------------------------------------o----------------------------------o
| This can only happen in forests. Sometimes when a battle initiates, you |

| in the game's 'facts.' This can happen in ANY forest from now 'til Disc |
| 4; it can only happen four times on the first disc, though, IIRC. See the |

o----------------------o--------o-------------------------------------------o
| One of the many 'directional' gates around the world, there's nothing to |

| of the shopgirls who'll arrive after you wait awhile [LINK: SH04]. She'll |

| through the gate cannot be done because you've no 'Gate Pass' key item. |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o--------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Observatory Mountain |
o--------------------------------o------------------------------------------o
| You'll can come here later on, but for now, this local mountain is yours |
| to explore. Find a [HI-POTION] by the entrance's wagon n' [135 GIL] near |
| the tiny mount's base. Inside the hut, you can talk to Morrid and learn |
| of his love for rare coffee beans -- this is actually part of a sidequest |
| you can do in order to earn his Mini Prima Vista model airship. Can't be |
| done for awhile, though. [LINK: RCFF] |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o----------------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Friendly Creatures Sidequest |
o----------------------------------------o----------------------------------o
| ...as this detour is affectionately called allows the player to get a leg |
| up on the game's optional boss. Even if you don't want to fight it, these |
| things give free AP! A friendly 'Mu' monster wants some Ore here. Select |
| some and target the Mu (don't attack!) to win 10 AP and a Potion. |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
Note that by running around the forest here (or any subsequent) that you may
encounter a "friendly" bunch of enemies, known as the Ragtimer and his X/O
true-false game. This can be done four times on the first disc, I believe,
and you win gil for correct answers. This is part of a sidequest which gives
a nice reward. [LINK: RGTM]. Can't finish it now, though, and there isn't a
time constraint for doing it.
Enter the tiny farm village nearby when ready to proceed.

After automatically spending the night, Zidane wakes up alone. Rise and shine,
then talk to Gumo and deliver his letter. View the 'Dagger Tries' ATE, then
leave the inn to see the 'Cat's Eye' ATE. Thirdly, go into the pumpkin patch
and see the 'Dagger Tries Harder' ATE -- Dagger will now be at the inn. Talk
to Vivi by the windmill. Find Dagger at the inn and then go back to the guest
room with her.

After some fat's been chewed, Dagger'll worry about Vivi, who ain't back yet.
With Garnet back in the party, you can search out some items around town.
In that guest bedroom, get the [POTION] and [ANTIDOTE] on either side of the
beds. Streetside, look for a [120 GIL] stash by the shop exterior and inspect
where Vivi was standing near the inn -- this happens automatically when you
waltz up the street.
Enter the windmill and look behind the device's crankshaft spinning on the
ground floor -- you can get the key item [ARIES], which is part of another
sidequest [LINK: STZC]. Make sure you get this! Now, before inspecting that
metal dome-shaped grate which leads downward, make sure you've bought three
Feather Hats at Eve's shop. [LINK: SH05]
The item shop [LINK: SH06] is found at the tavern, if you were wondering.
---
Down the windmill's secret entrance, get the [156 GIL] below the tiny lift
and scoot down the simple dirt corridor. After Dagger stays Zidane's slayin'
hand, enter the lit-up hut to find a [POTION]. There's an [EYE DROPS] chest
half-hidden by the fence, too. The adjacent cargo facility's got a moogle
cowering in a barrel (Kumop) with a [LETTER: Kumop -> Mogki] for you to take
in your parcel. Kick the rusty pulley wheel nearby to drop a [POTION] into
your grasp, and climb the crates for an [ETHER].
In the storage area after, a [LEATHER WRIST] and [IRON HELM] can be found
amongst the empty crates and junk. Vivi will rejoin the group in the next
room, so equip him with that third Feather Hat. A [95 GIL] container sits
by the large egg (?) machine, and you can open the door as well, although
this will let you fight Ghost monsters; keeping it closed stops them from
being available. However, you can steal Phoenix Pinions from them, so it's
not a complete waste. Beyond the door is a [PHOENIX DOWN] and [POTION]
duo, as well as a [PHOENIX PINION] obscured by the machine. Exit back into
the previous room and continue down the way, following the assembly line
(may find Vice monsters if you opened door) until...a huge secret is unveiled
that will shock and awe (!). The POV then changes to our 'forgotten' fourth
ally.
---
Steiner is inquiring about the cargo ship at Observatory Mountain, currently.

Search the base for [135 GIL] and a [HI-POTION] if you haven't done so before
coming to Dali, and talk to Morrid in his hut. He'll eventually spit up some
information -- exit the mountain to automatically head towards Dali. Poke or
prod the barrel, doesn't matter -- this culminates in a surprise boss fight
that shocks (!) and awes (!) again!

Since its mission is to return Dagger to the castle, he'll focus all his
fire on the men in the party. Should they die, the game is over 'cause it
will use Hypnotize and put Garnet to sleep. As such, have Garnet spread
Cure spells around (Use L1/R1 to target all) to fully heal everyone each
turn. It uses crappy single-target elemental spells until its HP is about
halfway depleted -- it'll then use Fira, a second-level fire attack on
all of the men. Cure gets the job done, though, same with Fire Sword and
any Trances. DO NOT, however, attack it with Vivi's magic as it will
counter with the same spell applied to all male members -- this doesn't
use up its turn either, meaning it can really cripple the party. Steal
both of its items as well; Bandit helps for this.
After the second waltz is pushing up daisies, you can rest back at the inn or
depart on the cargoship immediately (choose the former). Rest for free back
in town and take care of any preparations (items, equipment, mognet). I'll
mention something that's become ubiquitous in FF9 circles -- the "Cotton Robe
Trick."
This involves buying many Wrists and Steepled Hats and combining them to make
Cotton Robes, which sell for a bundle, at least compared to the cost of the
two parts in making it. You can do this come Burmecia, but there aren't
any Wrists in Lindblum -- you have to buy a bunch here if you're to do this.
It's a good way to make money (profit: 610g) so multiply that by fifty or
more and you can make a killing. Not necessary, but it's a nice thing to do.
---
When you're ready, exit to the cargo ship from the pumpkin patch.

Dagger won't be joining in this battle, but Vivi gets an automatic

Trance to begin with. He can cast two consecutive black magics, so that
is his role here. Zidane should be trying to steal those gloves and the
cuirass, while Steiner puts his girth on a shelf and doles out potions
(Vivi can fill this role after Trance). When its HP has been chipped off
a bit, it'll take flight -- its magic will then start being spread out
over all allies for the next two turns, so have some curative items on-
-hand. [André Garfo & Rykken write to say that if you never attack the boss
physically, it won't start to fly.]
BW3 flees after getting the beating of its life, meaning no AP or spoils are
thrown your way. Well, out of the frying pan and into Falcon's Gate...

After Minister Artania cuts through the royal red tape, you'll be able to
go see Regent Cid. Head into the fountain area, and go up the stairs. From
there you can get to a guest bedroom. Open the [GLASS ARMLET] and [ETHER]
chests, and save at Mogki. Drop off the letter you're carrying and pick up
the new [LETTER: Mogki -> Atla] he's got in his fluffy li'l hand. Double
back two rooms to that fountain area and enter the elevator.
When Zidane goes to eat, he'll meet an acquaintance from his past. You can
dub her whatever you like [Default: Freya] before the scene ends. She drops
the hint that the Festival of the Hunt's brought her around town and hopes
that Zidane'll be there, too...so she can whoop'im.
[BUSINESS DISTRICT]
The next day, Zidane wakes up in the business district -- time to search
the town for items! The actual destination is the theater district, so we'll
do that one last. Downstairs, look in the SW corner (TV) for [163 GIL] to
start this search off.

Up the street, at the larger square with the pickle stand, enter the only
house adjoining. It's got a [HI-POTION] and [ECHO SCREEN] pair inside, so
rob the guy while he watches. Back outside, take the north-facing alley next
to the house's left. It leads towards a church; near its door, obscured by a
tree, is a [TENT]. Enter inside and climb up above the organ to find a sweet
[LEATHER PLATE].
Back at the pickle-stand square, take the last exit on the other side of the
card freak's house -- it leads to the main shopkeeper square. There's the
regular weapon shop owned by Dragoos [LINK: SH07], Alice's items [LINK: SH08]
and lastly, the synthesis shop. If you inspect a back bench, there's a free
sampling -- [SILVER GLOVES]! Lots of good stuff here [LINK: SH09]. We'll
come back to this later, though. For now, return to the inn's street and
enter the station across from it, taking it to the Industrial District.

After stepping into the street, check the verdant fence by the foreground's
house for [127 GIL]. Inside that house, open a chest for [ORE] and leave once
again. Don't go to the Tantalus hideout right away, though; head towards the
memorial theater further down the stairs. Talk to the women waiting for some
person and watch the scenes involving Lowell. Follow Lowell incognito back to
Michael's house (near station) and talk to him -- he'll give over the key
item [AUTOGRAPH]; search around for the key item [MOOGLE SUIT] as well!
Back at the Tantalus hideout, everything's vacant for the most part. After
the "What can I do?" ATE, you'll be able to raid all the chests around here.
Most contain currency -- [282 GIL], [68 GIL], [97 GIL] -- but if you check up
by the beds, there's a key item [MINI-BURMECIA] sitting around. Now that you
have explored everywhere, take the kids' advice and go visit Dagger. Back to
the castle!
---
Note: There will be an event coming up where you have to fight, and there is
one monster in particular with good items to steal. So, I suggest going out
onto the Lindblum Plateau and fighting to learn The Ogre's "Soul Blade"
ability and learn "Bandit" if you haven't already. Soul Blade + Butterfly
Sword can inflict Silence 100% of the time if a monster's vulnerable, which
is the ultimate goal. Do this before you go to the castle!! [NOTE: This is
just a suggestion for making the fight easier.]
[LINDBLUM GRAND CASTLE]
Find Steiner in the guest room to find that Dagger can't be found. Try to use
the elevator to be buffeted back; Zidane thinks that dressing up like a guard
will get him admission. In the hallway adjoining the guest room, talk to the
sleeping guard to eventually get his uniform. Take the lift up and the way
will become clear: taking the stairs in the adjacent room. Dagger'll be at
the castletop observation deck!
When Zidane goes to the telescope, view the six locations marked by icons.
Zidane makes a wager that if he wins the Festival of the Hunt, Dagger and
him'll go on a date -- incentive to enter: accomplished. Anyway, the entrants
will gather at the castle and afterwards, Zidane will have to go to the air
cab dock to start...

EVENT: Festival of the Hunt [WK08]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
[BASICS:]
* 12-minute time limit

* Houses/Residences cannot be entered
* Highest point total wins Festival + prize
* Kill monsters for points; no AP/EXP/Drops obtained
* Time limit runs continuously, except when game is paused
[AUTHOR PREAMBLE]
The Festival is a celebration of hunting prowess that happens once per year.
Monsters are loosed on the entire town while entrants do battle with them to
earn points; the one with the highest points ultimately wins! Zidane, Vivi,
and Freya will be the 'allies' here, although all battles are fought one-on-
-one. Only one person can win, and losing a battle (KO) means that person is
disqualified.
o--------o----------o-------------------o
| PERSON | WANTS... | REWARD FOR WIN... | Zidane will start in the Theater
o--------o----------o-------------------o District, Freya in the Industrial
| Vivi | Card | Theater Ship Card | and Vivi at the Business. Travel
| Freya | Add-on | Coral Ring | between districts is possible,
| Zidane | Gil | 5000 Gil | but not to the Grand Castle where
o--------o----------o-------------------o the spectators are.
My advice is to let Freya win, since she gets the best item (accessory) that
absorbs thunder-elemental damage and lets her learn the 'Lancer' skill. Other
rewards can be gotten elsewhere.
...But how does one get these people to win? Well, here's how you want to
coax the odds into your favor:
* FREYA WINS IF:

'----------> Festival ends while in the lead
'----------> Zidane is KO'd/Disqualified
* ZIDANE WINS IF:
'----------> Zaghnol is defeated
* VIVI WINS IF:
'----------> Zidane and Freya are KO'd/Disqualified
Note that if you want Zidane to win so he and Dagger can go on a date, this
does NOT happen, regardless of the outcome. You're better off getting the
very useful accessory than winning for an unattainable date.
[MONSTERS INVOLVED]
Although many monsters are released, they aren't that diverse, consisting of
only of Fang, Trick Sparrow, and Mu types -- all these can be killed with a
successful hit of from Zidane's "The Ogre" weapon (Beast Killer and Bird
Killer aren't needed to push it into one-hit KO's). Each critter is valued
at three specific values.
Here's how they stack up by district (with specifics figured out by one
mister genkaku666):
[BUSINESS] [THEATER] [INDUSTRIAL]
* Mu x 1 * Mu x 1 * Mu x 3
* Fang x 3 * Fang x 1 * Fang x 1
* T Sparrow x 2 * T Sparrow x 2 * T Sparrow x 0
* TOTAL: 90-102pts. * TOTAL: 40-48pts. * TOTAL: 46-54pts.
Of course, these are just estimates based on the min/max potential points to
get, but as you can see, even in an estimate, the Business District's got the
biggest collection of the best kind to reap points from, with the Theater in
last.
[THE ZAGHNOL] --> (Optional)
Naturally, this tournament wouldn't be a challenge without the inclusion of

one big, end-all-be-all beast -- Zaghnol, in this case. It ONLY appears in
the Business District's shop plaza, starting at 4:30ish on the timer. If
you're there when the timer hits that point, you'll have to re-enter to
find it cornering Bunce and Lucilla. Freya joins Zidane for this 'boss'
battle. Remember: if you want the Coral Ring + the stealable items, you'll
have to steal them and let Zidane lose -- Freya cannot (by any means) kill
the Zaghnol as part of the mechanics.

If you followed my advice before and learned 'Soul Blade', and equipped a
Butterfly Sword, you can inflict Silence on the baddie which pretty much
defangs it -- it'll only have regular attacks to rely on. Without magicks
to sling your way, steal its good items (both if you can) and start the
killing blows. The easiest way to let Freya win is for her to simply let
the timer expire while she's in the lead; she CANNOT deal the coup de
grace on Zaghnol unless Zidane is KO'd in battle (have him cut himself
down), so if you're wondering why it has seemingly infinite HP, that's
the illusion unmasked.
Zaghnol is worth about 80-90 points, which will put Zidane in the lead if
you want him to win.
[FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS]
[Q] - Can Zidane win without killing Zaghnol?

[A] - Yes, although it doesn't often happen. To successfully do it, score
enough points so that Zidane is in the lead, and locate Zaghnol. The
score will not update while the battle is being fought, so let the
timer expire to win.
[Q] - Why won't some of the monsters you listed appear?

[A] - Check doorways, backtrack through a screen, wait for one to show up,
find one that's not actively searching -- there are plenty of reasons
why there aren't around you, besides the finite number of 'em.
[Q] - Why can't Freya kill Zaghnol?

[A] - Zidane has to deal the finishing blow to kill it; it's only when he's
KO'd can Freya do the honors. Zidane'll have a thief sword, hopefully,
so steal the equipstuffs, use 'Attack' on himself, and have Freya deal
the rest of the damage.

When all is said and done...
The winner receives the key item [MASTER HUNTER] and their prize, which is
either 5000 Gil, a Theater Ship Card, or a Coral Ring. After that, a one-rat
envoy from Burmecia arrives and tells of bad news in that country. Everyone
will want to set out immediately. Some events take place and the current
lineup will be:
* Zidane
* Vivi
* Freya
After the 'feast' is done, Freya suggests heading to Gizamaluke's Grotto,

the under-mountain roadway to Burmecian territory. Stock up on equipment in
town (sorry, no price reductions like normal holidays) and try to get setup
somethin' like this (optimized for new skills + defense):
[ZIDANE] [FREYA] [VIVI]
* The Ogre * Javelin * Mage Staff

* Headgear * Iron Helm * Headgear
* Glass Armlet * Bronze/Mythril Gloves * Glass Armlet
* Leather Plate * Linen Cuirass * Cotton Robe
* Yellow Scarf * Coral Ring * Glass Buckle
I'll also note that you'll be getting a new character soon, so unless you
want to run all the way back to the synth shop, buy at least one of the
following in your inventory when you go:
* Cotton Robe x 1
* Needle Fork x 1 <--- MUST STEAL FROM ZAGHNOL
* Steepled Hat x 1
* Glass Armlet x 1
* Glass Buckle x 1
Use the castle's elevator and take it to the 'Base Level' where there are two
trolleys. Detour on the one that goes to "Serpent's Gate," because at the
station one can find a chest with a [WYERD CARD]; then, go to "Dragon's Gate"
where the exit onto the world map is. A moogle (Moonte) can be found here and
gets a letter from Stiltzkin. A pirate-looking man sells items [LINK: SH10]
here, too. There's a hidden [TENT] chest around this tiny area, obscured on
the right side of the door.
NOTE: This gate will remain open until you've completed Gizamaluke's Grotto.
After that, you will NOT be able to get back to use the trolley to get back
to Lindblum (although the Dragon's Gate will remain open).

| Make your way north of Mogster to find a pond where a strange creature's |
| walking around a frog pond. When one of the frogs nears the shore, move |
| Zidane over and try to catch it. When you do, talk to the stranger and it |
| can be named [Default: Quina]. There's a quest about marsh frog-catching |
| [LINK: QMFC], which can be done in part now (get a better robe in it!). |
| |
| Quina's master scolds her (him?) and asks that s/he join your party to |
| experience the world. She'll come with literally nothing equipped, though |
| so hit up Lindblum for some better equips. Anyway, Quina needs to use the |
| 'Eat' command to learn magic from critically-injured enemies (HP is >25%) |
| so here's a list of monsters to get around here: |
| |

| Enter Chocobo's Forest to find Choco the Chocobo and Mene the Moogle. He |
| will give Zidane a [GYSAHL GREENS] item to catch Chocobo on the world map |
| footprints (just outside the forest). Use the greens at that location and |
| summon Choco; then, ride him into the forest. Mene will then allow you to |
| play the "Chocobo Hot & Cold" minigame where Choco digs up items...for 60 |
| gil a pop. This is mostly chump change, but you can dig up 'chocographs' |
| that show portraits of the world map where items are buried. Choco can, |
| in turn, dig 'em up for sweet, often rare items. The following chocograph |
| key items can be dug up so far (pre-Gizamaluke) with ones possible to get |
| on disc one listed with their rewards -- I'll refer back when you can pry |
| open some new treasure chests. |
| |
| CHOCOGRAPH REWARDS |
| |
| * Streamside -------> 2 Elixir, 3 Hi-Potion, 4 Ether, 2 Germinas Boots |
| * Between Mountains -> 5 Potion, 5 Hi-Potion, 2 Tent, 2 Cotton Robe |
| |
| Here are the others you can currently dig up, but can't get, either 'cuz |
| of inadequate abilities or that you're not near them yet: |
| |
| * Healing Shore * Faraway Lagoon * Bird's-eye Lagoon |

Gizamaluke's Grotto is in the north, and should be marked on the world map
(press select twice). Note that as soon as you enter, you will not be able
to get back into Lindblum for quite some time!!!

Just inside the carnage, talk to the soldier to get a [GIZAMALUKE BELL] key
item. Open the locked door nearby with the bell and enter withal -- a battle
with...

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
...two black mages appears. If their name doesn't give it away, they're
the most simple kind, using only low-level black magics. They're not too
tough, but if you have the Butterfly Sword equipped, Soul Blade'll slap
'em with Silence.
When the two jokers leave, kill the remaining black mage for a second
[GIZAMALUKE BELL]. The room's locked 'bell' doors are concentrated on one end
of the room, three in number. Ring your new key item bell on the door left of
the largest door to gain access to that large overhanging walkway. At the
elbow, a chest with a [BRONZE VEST] inside (put on Zidane). The soldier will
give Ziddy another [GIZAMALUKE BELL] when he comes by -- score!
This time, open the smallest locked door to enter a long stairway. Keep an
eye out for the [MYTHRIL GLOVES] in the NE part, and the [MAGUS HAT] on the
part that goes under the bridge. Before you approach the large bell, exit the
room whence you came and enter the first room you came to -- you can search
that soldier's body for the 4th [GIZAMALUKE BELL]! Open the last locked door
to enter the bell room's normal way.
After some events with moogles, Vivi will lose the key item 'Kupo Nut' and
the newlyweds will rush off to a side room. Get the last [GIZAMALUKE BELL]
that opens the dark-colored door in this room -- where the couple went. Talk
to Mogmi and save/tent, then turn go Moguta. When he asks if you like Kupo
Nuts, answer the affirmative; when everyone turns to leave, he hands over a
[HOLY BELL]! There's actually a bunch of items you can get from Moguta (see
'KPNT' section) later on, but can't do anything really for now.
o-------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Popos Heights |
o-------------------------o-------------------------------------------------o
| Although something you'll definitely want to avoid unless you're fond of |
| power-levelling, two strong enemies appear up here: Garudas, in the woods |
| regions, and Grand Dragons on the plains. I'm not even sure it's possible |
| to kill Grand Dragons without the Coral Ring (absorbs thunder attacks), |
| but I thought I'd mention it. To get up there, climb the vine in Moguta & |
| Mogmi's room. They warn you for a reason, y'know... Quina's Limit Glove |
| ability is essential for killing these suckers at low levels; later on, |
| LV5 Death (obtainable Disc 3) can swathe a path through their ranks. |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
Use that Holy Bell to open the last door in the newlyweds' adjacent room.
Put on any equipment that halves water damage, 'cause the way leads to a
harrowing, frightful, ghoulish encounter with Master...

VIVI : Lv. 11
FREYA : Lv. 15
QUINA : Lv. 12
ZIDANE: Lv. 14
This is probably the first boss in the game that can give you a hard time,
what with you lacking a healer and it being able to target everyone with a
powerful Water attack. But, there is salvation! It's vulnerable to Silence
so Butterfly Sword + Soul Blade can take the fire out of this firebrand.
BUT, there's more! If you throw a Tent on it, there's a chance it can be
bitten by a poison/silence/darkness snake -- poison doesn't work, but all
the rest will. That method is suggested to be done at the start of the
battle since it'll still heal Gizamaluke. This gives time to steal all its
great items. Freya should cut in with Jump/Lancer, Quina can be the item
healer, while Vivi Focuses multiple times to use his magic (Slow, Thunder).
Oddly enough, sometimes Gizamaluke won't counter magic with Silent Voice...
why is beyond me.
After the victory, the view switches over to our two comrades who aren't in
the party currently...

|___________________________________________________________________________|
NOTE: Any equipment you put on Dagger/Steiner will be stuck on them for some
time! Be wary!
Equip Steiner with new items and approach the gate guards. After admittance,
it's time to clear the alley from anyone who may see the knight's suspicious
actions. Talk to the demi-human cleaning a gate, then talk to the man wearing
overalls; talk to Jobless Jeff, then Part-time Worker Mary. This'll clear the
alley of any prying eyes. There's a chest on top of a (Conestoga?) wagon but
cannot be obtained at the moment. Try to enter the alley and a guard will ask
you to pick up the key item [GATE PASS] on the ground. NOW, you can enter the
alley at last. Get the [MULTINA RACKET] in the the lower-left area before the
'changing area'.
Once Dagger emerges, she reminds Steiner that they're going to Treno. Equip
Dagger with some good items (recommended: Rod, Magus Hat, Glass Armlet,
Cotton Robe, Desert Boots) and get the [POTION] chest near the cable car's
base. Grimo has a [LETTER: Grimo -> Nazna] to give you as well, so don't
forget to get it! Buy items if you want [LINK: STG1] and board the lift,
bound for the summit. Pick the back seat to sit in and the view will change
back to...
...Zidane's crew! It's back to the world map. Burmecia is already marked on

| '-A Hint: "Try changing your point-of-view with [R2], kupo." |
| '-Locate: Lindblum territory, in shallows, by isle west of Qu's Marsh |
| '-Reward: 8 Potion + 4 Phoenix Down + 3 Ether + 1 Magician Robe |
| |
| [SMALL BEACH] |
| '-Needed: Field Ability, Reef Ability |
| '-A Hint: "There's nothing there, but it's my favorite place, kupo." |
| '-Locate: Lindblum area, island in shallows south of C. Forest |

o--------------------o
o--------------------o------------------------------------------------------o
| Magic Vice ----> Magic Hammer (drain MP from a target) |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
In the first area, look for an overturned cart -- it protects the [CANCER]
Stellazzio from the raindrops. North, the two jokers you keep running into
appear again, sicing two more Type A black mages at the intruders. Inflict
Silence if you can to make this battle even easier. Go inside the house's
ground-level door when done.
Open the [SOFT] 'n' [POTION] chests and split again. Out by the suburb, take
the stairs up to the next level. Inside, get the [SOFT] by the stairbottom
and exit at the balcony (ignore chest you see; it's a Mimic). There's a shut
door that can't be opened yet; pass through to the third-floor of the house
you first entered. Walk SLOWLY to the [GERMINAS BOOTS] or the walkway'll fall
prematurely. Once you've got it, THEN make it fall. Exit back down to the
ground-floor's entrance (have to go back around).
That chest you see on the second-floor walkway is a Mimic, so ignore it if

you choose. Use the next room to get onto the balcony, then jump to the next
to enter a citizen's former bedchambers. Talk to the wounded soldier who'll
say there's a bell under the bed. And, indeed there is -- a [PROTECTION BELL]
is stuffed 'neath there. Get the [ETHER} in the dark corner of the room and
exit again. Remember that locked door past the first mimic room? Return there
and enter.
After a scene, it'll lead a dilapidated house. Enter the ground-floor doorway
to view an event that'll allow an ATE to play later (you will miss it if you
don't help out here) in Lindblum. Some people are sticklers for seeing all
that stuff, after all. Go up the stairs outside, cross the balcony, and enter
the next door. A [PHOENIX DOWN] and [TENT] chest are right nearby, while the
chest you see at a dead-end leads to a Mimic -- avoid.
In the dreary fountain plaza, enter the northern armory to get Freya a new
weapon, the [MYTHRIL SPEAR]; the other door leads to a save point. Open the
chest in the back for a [LIGHTNING STAFF], at which time Stiltzkin will come
in out of the rain. Deliver your letter to Atla and check out her moogle shop
[LINK: SH13] before you buy from Stiltzkin. For 333 Gil, he'll pawn off a
[SOFT], [HI-POTION], and [ETHER]. A simple handout which you should do (see
the 'STZK' sidequest link). Buy from Atla:
* Needle Fork (if you didn't get one already)

* Barbut x 1 (you can get one for Steiner soon)
* Some Phoenix Down (if you only have a few)
Pick up Atla's [LETTER: Atla -> Monev] and get her [KUPO NUT] before going
back out into the rain. Head up towards the palace promenade.
o-------------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Moguta the Kupo Nut Fiend |
o-------------------------------------o-------------------------------------o
| If you go back to Moguta in Gizamaluke's Grotto, he'll exchange the Kupo |
| Nut for a random item. If you avoid doing this now, you'll miss out on |
| the next moogle's Kupo Nut. |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
As Zidane, select "Leave her alone" when prompted. Inside the palace, there's
a nice (NICE) greeting that one gets.

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
This battle is unwinnable, at least to the point where you get a favorable
outcome. So, instead, slap Beatrix with Slow (only status you can put on
her) and bide your time, using phoenix downs to heal. All her attacks are
single-hitters except for Stock Break, which can't kill you; this makes
Reis's Wind a lot more useful than bosses with affect-all attacks. Time
can run out here, so you don't have to take any offensive action -- try
to steal that Mythril Sword, though; you'll see why come the second disc.
It's notoriously hard to steal, however, and you can get another later.
Nothing but a fancy outro for our 'mystery man' afterwards. Save at the
prompt, knowing that the POV will change back to the other party members.

After a nice joyrode courtesy of the Berkmea cable cars, everyone reaches the
mountaintop station. Enter the resting area to find it fairly desert. Nazna
the Moogle'll want your letter and hand over a [KUPO NUT] if you went back to
Gizamaluke's Grotto and traded Atla's gift in. Also accept to deliver her own
[LETTER: Nazna -> Mochos] at this time. Use a crowbar on that [PHOENIX DOWN]
chest by the attendant's booth, and check out the shop stuffs that are for
sale [LINK: SH14]. Recommended to buy:
* Mythril Rod x 1
* Barbut x 1
o-------------------o
| Cotton Robe Trick |
o-------------------o-------------------------------------------------------o
| The get-rich-quick scheme can be done here, by buying Steepled Hats at |
| the Summit Station, Wrists in Dali, then combining the two in the next |
| town, Treno. Just a head's up. Afterwards, you may want to stock up on |
| Wrists in Treno again, saving them for when Steepled Hats are available |
| in a town further along in Disc 2 (hint: "BMV"). |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
Anywho, talk to the attendant in the waiting-area booth to 'make' the car to
Lindblum depart. Exit the waiting area, then re-enter to find a few familiar
faces. Talk to a Tantalus member, then scold Steiner. Go down to the station
and enter the Alexandria-bound cable car when possible. Marcus says he's on a
journey to find a 'Supersoft' which can cure his Bro's petrification. Talk to
Marcus when the conversation trails off and he'll join up as something stalls
the car...

This time around, it's gone crazy...but still won't bother to hit Dagger.
It's got the same crappy attacks as last time, with the exception of
'Freeze' status, the only new thing you've never seen. Should someone be
inflicted and then hit afterwards, s/he will be 'crushed' and be KO'd
instantly. If you outfitted Dagger at the summit, she should have access
to the Life/Shell spells, so this is even easier than normal. Prolong
the battle to get its treasures, though; that's mostly what Marcus is
good for here (can use the Tent 'snake' trick to inflict Darkness, too).
If Dagger's the last one alive -- by some cruel twist of fate -- BW3
simply attacks himself on the subsequent turns, making this battle rather
impossible to lose.
After the last Waltz is over, Marcus will join up as the third member for a
while. For now, you can equip good stuff on him; I'll tell you when the time
is coming to take all the rarities off. He can't learn any abilities, so the
need to be strategic isn't really there.
---
At the Alexandria side of the cable cars, visit the Vega store [LINK: SH15]
Head down to the forked path. The right one leads to Treno, the left to
Dali. Take the right path.
o---------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Village of Dali |
o---------------------------o-----------------------------------------------o
| Now that you have the 'Gate Pass' you can enter back to Nolrich Heights, |
| and visit Observatory Mountain (cards with Morrid?) and also the Village |
| of Dali. You can see Eve Hubbard's new card-game tips, get the [ARIES] |
| Stellazzio coin by the windmill's crankshaft, and get that [ELIXIR] in |
| the pumpkin patch the old woman blocked before. The latter cannot be done |
| past Disc 2, so now's the time to do it. |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
This leads to a rickety bridge with a [1610 GIL] chest on the offshoot. The
gatekeeper nearby will let you through onto the world map again. Treno is
known as the 'Eternal Night' city, and is getting close when the sky starts
to darken. Enemies around here: Trick Sparrow, Carve Spider, Mandragora,
Ghost.

Everyone ends up leaving Steiner behind, and that's who'll be controlled here
for the most part. First, ATEs play a big part in how things turn out around
here. You can get a [POWER BELT] by doing the following EXACTLY as told:
* Watch 'Treno Tradition' ATE -- IN FIRST SCREEN!!!!

* Watch 'Pursuit' ATE -- Go WEST to where Garnet went!!!!
* As Steiner, enter the synthesis shop's hallway and talk to four-armed man
This can be done no matter which amount of gil is stolen from Dagger. As
Steiner, you'll want the two key Stellazzio key items first off. In that
first screen where he's stranded, the left fountain can make someone a bit
'happier' if he throws in gil. Do this thirteen times to get the [GEMINI]
coin. Go to the slums (where Marcus headed) and look behind the item shop
stall, for the [TAURUS] Stellazzio. There's a [YETI CARD] and [1 GIL]
chest nearby, too. In the west, by the locked tower, a [MYTHRIL DAGGER]
chest sits all lonely-like.

| LEGEND |
o-----------------------o Treno's got a treasure trove of shops. The pure
| 1 - Gemini Stellazzio | item shop's by the inn [LINK: SH16], while the
| 2 - Mythril Dagger | equipment shop's in the screen before the auction
| 3 - Yeti Card | house [LINK: SH17]. NOTE: Many people miss out on
| 4 - 1 Gil | the Mythril Sword's "Armor Break" ability, either
| 5 - Taurus Stellazzio | because they forget that this WILL NOT be sold at
| 6 - Ether | a later date or because they get the Blood Sword
| 7 - 2225 Gil | and just don't buy it. Armor Break can't be taught
o-----------------------o in any other fashion, so make sure you at least
_buy_ one Mythril Sword to learn at a later date.
But, let it not be said this town is without a synthesis shop [LINK: SH18]!
There's plenty of good stuff to buy; or, you could save your cash and check
out the Treno auction [LINK: THSH] which has a few good equips to try that
cannot be bought/synthed. Oh, and the moogle is by the equipment shop, but
you'll have to chase it out of the stairwell first. Mogrich has a letter
regarding "some guys" near Burmecia, but has nothing to deliver. Whew, huh?
To continue, meet up with Dagger at the auction house to get her back in the
party, then talk to Marcus at the inn. Take the boat, and an acquaintance
of Dagger's will ask everyone to go to his tower on the fringe of the town
(it's the one near the Mythril Dagger chest). Up there, Marcus will be given
the [SUPERSOFT]. Talk with the good doctor to learn the quickest way back to
Alexandria -- Gargan Roo! Before you go, think about all this optional stuff
you can do:
o---------------------------------o-----------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Stellazzio Collectin' | See 'STZC' for more details |
o---------------------------------o-----------------------------o-----------o
| You've been collecting them for awhile; now you can trade them in for a |
| few prizes. It's possible to have five at the moment, if you got the one |
| at Quan's Dwelling as well. Stella will give up to five rewards, going in |
| order: [1000 Gil], [PHOENIX PINION], [2000 GIL], [BLOOD SWORD], and last, |
| [5000 GIL]. So the Blood Sword would be #4; if you don't have that many, |
| remember that you can return to Dali/Quan's Dwelling to get those ones! |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o-----------------------------------o-----------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Knight House Fight Club | See 'KHFC' for more details |
o-----------------------------------o-----------------------------o---------o
| In the equipment shop, talk to the old lady to get the option of fighting |
| the monster (Griffin) below. As Steiner, equip the Blood Sword (HP Drain |
| effect), a Gold Choker (halves wind damage), and Bird Killer. The monster |
| uses wind-element attacks which may be able to kill him normally, but are |
| made to be pretty lame this way. Bird Killer helps increase the damage he |
| can do with the Blood Sword, which in turn helps heal him more. Win, and |
| receive the [TONBERRY CARD] as the reward; lose and you can take another |
| crack at it (heal up first!). I did it at level seven, myself. =p |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o-------------------------------o------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Treno Auction House | See 'THSH' for details |
o-------------------------------o------------------------o------------------o
| Although it can be ignored in almost every facet of its existance, the |
| auction house is still a great provider of rare items one can get earlier |
| in the game. Here's a list of some great ones. Even if you don't want to |
| get them for Steiner or Dagger, remember the inventory is shared -- when |
| the POV switches back to Zidane's party, they'll be able to use them too. |
| Here's what can be bought at the moment: |
| |
| * Mini-Cid * Une's Mirror * Griffin's Heart |
| * Fairy Earrings * Reflect Ring * Doga's Artifact |
| * Pearl Rouge * Magician Robe * Madain's Ring |
| |
| Dagger'll have to bid on them, of course, but many are worth the price. |
| Some (Rat Tail, Une's Mirror, Griffin's Heart, Doga's Artifact) can be |
| resold in town to some people for a profit. Here's their locations if you |
| need quick cash (note: these can be rebought again once sold): |
| |
| [ITEM] [SELL TO] [MAX SELL AMT.] |
| Une's Mirror ----> 'Nobleman' by synth shop exterior --------> 15000g |
| Doga's Artifact -> 'Scholar' in synthesis shop proper -------> 10000g |
| Griffin's Heart -> 'Adventurer' by synth shop exterior ------> 10000g |

Enter the sewer grate lookin' thing in Tot's tower to enter the new, albeit
short area.

This place is great for leveling up and AP-grinding -- two Crawlers leave
3 AP! It also happens to be a great place to gil-grind, too, as two Crawlers
leave 646g. Since you can still exit back to the upper crust, consider this:
kill a bunch of stuff, go back and buy at the auction, rinse, repeat. They
also drop Ethers which sell for 1000g apiece! A Pearl Rouge teaches silence-
-proof 'Loudmouth' ability, so try to get it with this method.
---
The first order of business is finding the sequence trigger. Talk to Mochos
and give him a letter. From the circular room, exit SW for a [CHAIN PLATE]
chest. Hit the nearby lever and get the [PHOENIX DOWN], too. Exit SE from
the circular room and circle along the northern path to a pull-lever. Ring
it down to call a gargant. Put the Antibody ability on all applicable parties
before pushing the switch by Tot's new position. Everyone piles on the insect
and heads right into a baddie's clutches. Intrigue!

Feel free to use the 'tent trick' to inflict darkness on the baddie, which
starts the battle off on the right foot. Marcus should try to steal that
fork, while Steiner attacks or uses Darkside. Dagger'll heal and cure any
poison (w/ Panacea) that happens. When it's been damaged enough, it'll
use 'Escape', robbing the party of any spoils.
Everyone reaches the destination and some automatic scenes play out before
the view changes back to those in Burmecia. Freya says that the Vube Desert
is where Cleyra's located. Off to the world map!

At the first locked door, hit the stairside lever to open it. Beyond, claim
the [PHOENIX DOWN] chest and keep heading up to the spacious sand room. Open
the half-hidden [MAGICIAN SHOES] chest in the south; in the north, half-
-hidden by the tree, get the [ICE STAFF]. Exit in the lit-up doorway to the
east when done collecting.
On the trunk exterior, ignore the vine leading up and take the gnarled
incline path. Pop open the [ETHER] chest and inspect, then examine the hole
at the trunk's base nearby. This lets sand cascade below, giving a path to
walk on but preventing the Ice Staff from being obtained. Go back to the vine
from before and climb up to the floor's new elevation. You'll also see two
chests up on an overhang -- you can't those now, but it's possible through a
few events later.
In the adjacent area, get the [NEEDLE FORK] at the sandfall's base and go up
to the path by Monev for a [TENT]. Deliver his letter to get a [KUPO NUT],
but he won't have anything outgoing. You CANNOT go back and deliver this to
Moguta currently, however. =(
North of Monev's abode, get the [FLAME STAFF] by the offshoot path and cross
the bridge nearby that leads to a tunnel complex. A small path to the east
contains a [REMEDY]. In that first room, there is a [DESERT BOOTS] chest
hidden behind a root. In that same room, a little northwest is a [MYTHRIL
VEST] to be found (thanks to Andre Galfo for noting the location). Exit into
the background when done.
This route leads to a [MYTHRIL GLOVES] chest, and even further past that, at
the dead end, is a lever. Knock it loose to cut a sandflow's source nearby,
leaving a chest open for reapin'. Double back to the first room in the cave
complex and take the left passage you've ignored thus far.
Rob the [POTION] chest and go up the incline path to the chest you saved from
drownin' in the sand -- an [ELIXIR]. Backtrack a room and enter the leftmost
passage once again. There should be a room with a bunch of whirlpits; fall in
one and be subjected to a mandatory battle against a Sand Scorpion (which is
a poor enemy ~ HP: 500ish). Mash the X-button as directed to have Zidane jump
out of the 'pits, to the ledge nearest where he is on the pit's outer rim.
The two chests contain [900 GIL] and a [HI-POTION]. You can ignore these for
now if you want, 'cause you can get them later when the sand whirlpools've
stopped.
For now, exit west towards a ladder. Get the [GYSAHL GREENS] chest and climb
up to reach...

An oracle will ask if you want a tour -- don't do it! It's extraordinarily
long and boring!!! :D
---
Anyway, everyone'll split up and do their own thing; you'll control Zidane.
From where the oracle is, veer east (blindspot) to enter a garbage pit. Open
the [970 GIL] chest and return to the oracle's screen. Up the first stair,
look at the turn for a [PHOENIX PINION].
o-----------------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Get a one-time-only treasure! |

| Here's what you do to get a [SILK ROBE] and 2nd pair of [MAGICIAN SHOES]! |

| 02) View the 'There A Mushroom!' ATE afterwards (must view Step #1 first) |
| 03) Return to the settlement's garbage pit by the town entrance |
| |
| At the pit, talk to Quina who will jump in (!), with Zidane going after |
| him/her. For all the trouble, you'll land by those two chests down in |
| the trunk that weren't accessible before. Jump down and return to Monev's |
| doorstep, and work your way back up to Cleyra again. Flee battles if you |
| are having a hard time. |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
By the pond, find the field icon indicating some [THUNDER GLOVES] are laying
nearby. In the inn facade screen, there is some [ORE] by a flowery dead-end,
and by the resting place itself, Burmecian Soldier Dan has set up shop (how
did he smuggle all that crap up the trunk?) -- look into it [LINK: SH19]. Up
in the inn's quarters, there is a [1250 GIL] cache near the stairbottom, an
[ECHO SCREEN] by the counter, and an [ETHER] by the bedstand. Save at Mopli
and go up the stairs beside the inn; a [REMEDY] sits on the right well.
By the windmill-filled platform, there's a [PHOENIX PINION] where the bridges

meet. North by the cathedral, search the lawn for [GYSAHL GREENS] and the
entrance for an [ECHO SCREEN]. In the church lobby, get the [YELLOW SCARF]
before talking with the guards; they'll direct you back the inn's way.
Unforunately, rest and relaxation is not in our tailed hero's future; there
is something amiss by the garbage pit (blind exit by town entrance). Equip
the 'Bandit'/'Bright Eyes' skill and arrive at the dump to be shown a nice,
warm, digestive-sauce welcome.

Vivi's Blizzara spell can mow this thing down in a few turns; however, a
smart player will delay it in order to steal that Gold Helm that can't
be bought at the moment. Throw a tent on it to (hopefully) inflict it w/
Silence and Darkness before you attempt stealing from it, then add in
Slow and Sleep. One can keep this thing in a constant offensive 'stasis'
by constantly spamming sleep and having it auto-cancel when it can't
cast its magic. When it does get an attack off (Sandstorm), counter w/
Reis's Wind/White Wind. Auto-Potion also helps, but isn't needed; its
only affect-all attack can never KO anyone. This takes the sting out of
'Trouble Mucus,' since its an annoying status and the Annoyntments are
usually hard to get early on (Star Maiden Nina near the upper pond area
sells them though).
Watch the sandstorm-strengthening ritual/harbinger and see what's happening

in Alexandria at the same time. Eventually, Freya will be the party leader
and can run around on her own. Return to the cathedral's harp room and search
for an [ETHER], [ORE], and [PHOENIX PINION] around various articles. The High
Priest will also give Freya an [EMERALD] -- this is missable if you don't get
it as Freya!!!! Save if you want before heading down.

Gather at the town entrance, and go back to save/buy equipment for everyone;
you probably haven't been able to do this since you arrived here. Prepare,
and head back down the trunk when ready.

Equipping Man Eater from this point on would be a good idea.
In the 'first' part of the cave complex, some Alexandrian Soldiers attack
(HP: ~550, EXP: 200, AP: 1). Slay the chicks, head down the next screen for
another encounter. After the third stall battle, arrive at the bridge to be
notified that everyone should head back to town. This happens automatically.
---
A battle with [Type B x 1 (HP: ~550, EXP: 93, AP: 1)] occurs, and you can
save at the sandpit. Mopli will have a [LETTER: Mopli -> Serino] for you to
deliver posthaste, so put it in your pack before trying to ascend the stairs
into the town proper. Now, some back-to-back battles occur:
#1 - Soldier x 3
#2 - Type B x 2
These battles are a cinch with Man Eater and/or Bio spells spread out amongst
all targets. Either way, Zidane runs into the town to help save the townfolk
who are under attack. Depending on his actions, they can die or live, and how
many he saves determines the items he gets in a moment. Choose these options
when prompted to save all possible:
#1 - "Let's head right!"

#2 - "Let's go left!" -----------------> Battle with: Soldier x 2, Type B
#3 - "Cross the bridge to the right!" -> Battle with: Soldier x 3
Some scenes later and everyone will gather at the cathedral for the last
stand of Cleyra. Beatrix comes and goes and it's into the lobby. Save at
Mopli (last chance to get his letter) and collect the items from the people
you saved. At maximum, you can get:
* [PHOENIX DOWN]
* [REMEDY]
* [NYMPH CARD]
* [ELIXIR]
* [ZUU CARD]
* [ETHER]
* [PHOENIX PINION]
Equip some thunder-reducing equipment, then head outside to face the boss...

Everyone ends up at the Red Rose, except for Quina. Run up the stairs and
listen into the conversation behind the door, then return towards the pod
landing site. Serino the moogle'll show up, so save/heal and give her the

way out... The view now changes to our incarcerated friends.

Breaking out of this birdcage is as simple as rocking back and forth. When
the suspended cell is moving left, lean left; when it's moving right, lean
right. This builds up a momentum that will eventually crash the cage on the
far walkway. If you're having trouble, just use Marcus' pointers since he'll
tell you if you're doing well, either by saying "The other way!" or "There
you go."
When you escape, equip Steiner with new equipment (Ice Brand?) and UNEQUIP
Marcus of any rare items -- you'll see why later. Defeat the two groups of
guards (Soldier x 2 battles). Up the ladder, exit. Marcus will now leave the
party, while Vivi, Freya, and Zidane join Steiner. A 30:00 time limit will
appear, signifying the time until the Red Rose docks in, and the time you've
got to find the princess.
---
If you recall the layout of the castle, you'll have to return to the queen's
chambers (Haagen alludes to this). You can't save in the guardhouse, though.
o--------------------------o--------------------------o
| OPTIONAL BOSS: Tantarian | See [TNTR] for more info |
o--------------------------o--------------------------o---------------------o
| In the Alexandria Castle library, by the SW bookshelf is a (?) mark that |
| can lead to a boss fight with Tantarian. It's got ~20000 HP and isn't any |
| walk in the park. You can steal a Silver Fork/Demon's Mail from it, but |
| you can also do it at a later date...WITHOUT any time limit! If you pass |
| it up now, just know that you'll have to do kill Tantarian next time you |
| pass through (and it'll be way, way, way easier to do). |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
Walk up the stairs by the guardhouse and enter the door that was locked
previously (where incognito Dagger ran out of last time). There are three
chambers beyond; the middle's the queen's bedroom. Inspect the odd purple-
-colored nightstick to find a secret passage.
---
You can acquire the [ICE BRAND] and [TENT] chests by moving to the opposite
side of the rotating walkway, and waiting for the side you started on's swing
motion to bring it towards you. Get on, get the chests, get off, go down th'
stairs. At the bottom platform, enter the doorway. Equip 'Bandit' if it ain't
on and see what debauchery is going on inside.

Cast Slow on both targets for an easier time.
You'll notice that they have no outright offensive attacks, and instead
have to "give" the power to one another. Attacking the person who "got"
the power "neutralizes" and prevents them from using their secret skill,
so it's not too hard to get by without them getting any attack off. Have
someone with weak attack like Vivi on standby to attack the applicable
target while Zidane steals. Know that whoever gets the power will use
their special ability on the next turn. Also know that the attacks are
mostly crap, with only Meteorite any kind of 'threat'. Damaging one of
the clowns to critical ends the battle.
Get Garnet nearby, watch the 'Friendship' ATE, and save at Mosh nearby. He
doesn't have any mail at the moment, though. Return to the queen's chambers
where another fight'll take place.

The last in the infamous triptych of Beatrix battles! Again, it's simply
a timed battle so try to steal that Survival Vest before time deplets and
she uses Climhazzard on your face. Remember that Slow status is your ally
here.
After a little turning of the tables, Freya and Beatrix will have to fight
off a Bandersnatch [~900 HP, 393 EXP, 2 AP, 347 Gil] on their own. As Ziddy's
party, use the rotating platform to escape the first Bandersnatch. The 2nd
screen down, the party has to fend of three Type C mages (Dagger can cast
Silence on everyone, remember). Equip Dagger with the Stardust Rod and that
extra pair of Magician Shoes, if you have 'em, too.
Kill the two Bandersnatchs, remove Steiner's accessory if you'll want to use
it on other characters, and go down below when Rusty leaves the party for a
while. Deal with the overgrown dog that attacks and the view switches back
to the 'rebels'.
---
Beatrix and Freya'll have to kill the first wave of Bandersnatches on their
own, but Steiner'll join them for the next. Remember that Beatrix' regular
attacks are powerful on their own already; using Seiken ain't necessary to
dispense of things.
---
As Zidane's party, save in the extraction room and pick up the new delivery
from Mosh: [LETTER: Mosh -> Monty]. Downward, everyone's saved in the 'Blank'
of an eye and once piled on the gargant, has to round out this series of
battles with...

Inflict Slow/Blind through your preferred method and DEFINITELY steal the
Oak Staff. You can keep the monster at bay by having Vivi attack to make
it "become compact," in which it will wait for you to attack it and thus
not take any offensive maneuvers. Zidane can steal the vest and staff at
this time, and once it uncoils, Vivi can repeat. It only coils up for
physical attacks, and only counters physical attacks, meaning you can
bomb it with Blizzara when uncompact (defense skyrockets when coiled)
to make it slink away. Also, you can use Float on everyone to evade the
'Earth Power' attack, if you wanna go that avenue, although know that it
heals the boss.
It's a bumpy, bumpy ride to...

Here's where the pieces are:
* At the crash site

* In Monty's screen, a figment appears on top of the root overhang
* In Monty's screen, go down to water level and look under the root overhang
* In the water, past Monty's screen, an apparition is found near the incline
* Exit past the incline detailed above to find the last apparition in a creek
When you collect all five, gather by the part of the map marked 'EXIT' and
Ramuh will want your findings. Tell the story in this order:
01) "Beginning"
02) "Cooperation"
03) "Silence"
04) "Human" OR "Hero"
Ramuh will disappear and give Dagger a [PERIDOT] accessory, which lets her
re-learn the Ramuh eidolon summon. Before you jump off, make sure to get the
[MYTHRIL ARMLET] chest by jumping off the ledge near where you spoke with
Ramuh. A.K. wrote in to say that Stiltzkin has a letter delivered to
Monty, readable if one chooses to backtrack instead of descending.
When you jump off, automatic scenes take you to Lindblum. But, know that
there is an [ELIXIR] and [PHOENIX DOWN] chest near the foreground creek if
you didn't get 'em on the first disc. [

Vivi will be out of the party and hiding for the moment, so it's just Zidane
and Dagger. Head to the shop plaza to run into Artania, who'll commence some
scenes with the regent. He dispenses some wisdom: the weaponry provided to
Brahne's being supplied by someone on the Outer Continent. Apparently the
only way is through a disused, clandestine tunnel by a nearby swamp... Cid
hands over [3000 GIL] for expenses and sends everyone on their way.
---
The item shop [LINK: SH21] now sells Annoyntments, while Dragoos' shop's got
every new item up to that point [LINK: SH22], so you can play catchup. The
synthesis shop is where you should head, however [LINK: SH23], since it's
got the best equipment...if you can spare some of your old stuff. Buy the
Barette since it teaches Dagger Cura, and the Exploda for Zidane.
Here's what can be obtained now that Lindblum's been changed:
[BUSINESS DISTRICT]
* In the inn, get the [LETTER: Moodon -> Moonte]

* By the blocked-off entrance to the church alley, a [LINDBLUM CARD] lies
* Card Freak Gon's house has an [ETHER] and [PHOENIX PINION]
[THEATER DISTRICT]
* Talk to Lowell about working in Ruby's theater

'-NOTE: May have to talk to Moodon in B. District inn to do this!
* Get the [340 GIL]/[993 GIL]/[262 GIL] chests from the Tantalus hideout
* There's an [ORE] chest in the artist's studio. I only make a note of it
since so many people think it's "new" when it's available on Disc 1.
---
When you're ready to leave, talk to the man near the B. District's fountain
plaza to continue with the story (make sure to buy for Vivi, too!). At the
base-level station, Vivi joins up and Cid gives everyone a [WORLD MAP] key
item. Once at Dragon's Gate, give Moonte the letter from Moodon and save up.
The pirate-lookin' merchant's stuck around, too [LINK: SH24], and sells some
items and equipment. They're really coddling the player... Anyway, search in
the background's corner near the end of the rail for a [BANDANA]
Exit onto the world map, pronto.

| There are no new ones to dig up, if you dug up the max on the previous |

o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o-------------------------------------o
o-------------------------------------o-------------------------------------o
| You should still have a Kupo Nut you got from Monev way back when (or you |

o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
Put your sights on Qu's Marsh after taking care of business outside the area,
and find Quina again at the pond. If you haven't gotten Quina now, for some
weird reason, his/her optional status has been voided -- time to get'er! S/he
will have all the equipment from before, if you had him/her while at Cleyra.
Do some frog-catching here, too, since there'll be a whole new marsh later on
for you to find munchies at...
---
Talk of a hidden road doesn't arouse any memories in Quale, although he does
say that the tall brush could be hiding something (NOTE: it's not mandatory
to talk to him) in its depths. Exit right of his house with Quina in your
party to see a scene where s/he uncovers the site.
Go deeper inside...

Head inside past the suspicious looking door to find out there's a big baddie
trapped behind...and it's loose! It'll chase you through an "axe field" where
getting hit means it'll catch up and attack. It's wholly optional, per se,
but if you accidentally lose ground and it catches you...

It ALWAYS gets a back attack on you, even with Alert functioning in its
capacity. Plus, it can't be defeated permanently, which makes it a pretty
dumb fight to replay. Luckily, one powerful magic attack from Vivi can
usually put it out of commission, so those death attacks shouldn't be too
much of a bother.
Once the axe field is clear, it's out of the frying pan and into the fiery
clutches of an lass' axe...

Slap her with Darkness (Blind/Tent trick) and Slow, and put all the mages
into the back row if they aren't already. Have Dagger heal everyone when
Water is used, which is probably the most dangerous -- Lani's really on
Dagger's case the most, here. What probably isn't the most evident strat
to use is Magic Hammer -- it drains 1000+ MP from her to start off! She
can eventually run out after about ten doses, and with blindness on, her
physical axe-slicin' suffers considerably...giving you time to steal
those two weapons she's got on her person. Alternatively, you can cast
Reflect on Dagger which can also take the heat off her for awhile.
After Lani leaves, follow back towards the cavern's beginning and search
where the Armodullahan was cooped up for an oft-forgotten [ELIXIR]. Return
and head down the stairs to enter the cave system proper. Pick one of the
flowers nearby and stand by the "(!)" to tame the gargant and hitch a ride
down the line. Take the nearest tunnel exit to get into the real miner's
paradise...
o------------------------------o

o------------------------------o--------------------------------------------o
| He's offering a Phoenix Pinion, Remedy, and Ether for 555 Gil, now. Nice! |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
Mogki the moogle doesn't have any delivery packages, but does have a mogshop
for you to peruse [LINK: SH25]. Only items, but it's got Annoyntments -- buy
a few for later on (x10 is good). Now, there are plenty of items here but
using the gargants can be a pain; thus, I'll give the most roundabout ways
to do this, since that gets all the items.
---
To start off, take the path leading to a gargant right near the moogles to
end up by a chest with [FAIRY EARRINGS] inside. Ride back the way you came
and in the main room, take the path near the human miner. Here's what you
have to do (it's straightforward, mostly):
01) Turn on the No. 1 Switch

02) Ride Gargant to No. 2 Switch
'-There's an [ETHER] along the path...
03) Flip No. 2 Switch
04) Ride Gargant back to No. 1 Switch
05) Flip No. 1 Switch
06) Ride Gargant back towards main mining room
Save/tent at the moogles (recommended) and take the nearest gargant, getting
dropped off by a miner who has a shop of his own [LINK: SH26]. No doubt he
makes little money, whether it's because he's in an isolated cave or because
his wares are the exact same as the Dragon's Gate merchant... Climb up the
stairs near him to get along.
Nearby is 'Switch No. 4', already in its best position. Turn it anyway and
take the gargant to a [LAMIA'S TIARA] chest. It teaches Dagger some magic but
is a female-only headgear, so put it on her (Quina can also equip but we need
to DNA test that weirdo) before the return gargant trip. Flip the #3 Switch
and take the gargant again, coming to a pond of sorts. Climb across to the
other side (might have to take a dip first), ending up at a lone miner
hammering away at some rocks.
o-------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Free Madain's Rings |
o-------------------------------o-------------------------------------------o
| The miner here will let you dig in exchange for a Potion. While this is a |
| crapshoot entirely, it's possible to dig up the ring/accessory. It drains |
| ice attacks, teaches Body Temp, Chemist, and Guardian Mog, so it's not a |
| bad trade-off, yeah? It can take awhile, however. You may get Potions or |
| Ore in the deal, too. Talk with the miner if y'want to end. |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
Agree to trade a potion for him and hammer on the scaffolding's upper tier,
near the big pile of rocks. Hit the weird wall eleven or so times to make a
moogle (Kuppo) tumble out. He wants you do deliver a [LETTER: Kuppo -> Kupo]
for him, so nod your head...and do it. =) He's also got a mogshop that sells
some medicinal items, but it's nothing special. [LINK: SH27]. Exit to the SE
of the screen and look for a [SURVIVAL VEST] near a woodpile. Return to that
pond from before, now.
Climb up the ivy-covered wall to the NW corner to find the last (#4) switch.
It warns that you'll be shut out on the new continent once you trigger it to
the exit path, so advance when ready. Fall into the water and take the lower
SE path to the last gargant you'll ever see. Walk out into the sunlight and
put this hellhole behind you...

To get through this small part, head to the upper part of the village where
Vivi is talking to some dwarves. Once he leaves, watch the 'Hungry Bryan'
ATE about pyntie-hats. Enter the shop, view what's up, and the gatekeeper'll
say the pyntie-hats come from the "sootheast forest". That's all to progress
the storyline...but don't go yet!
---
Right by where you enter, check behind the gatekeeper dwarf for [2700 GIL]
in the dark corner. Enter the inn area and search a bed for [1800 GIL], then
find the [PHOENIX PINION] in the shop's stairbottom corner. Talk to Mogmatt
in that item shop and pick up the [LETTER: Mogmatt -> Suzuna]. Wendy Grocer's
shop is the same as the other ones you've encountered [LINK: SH28], but the
equipment shop's got what you want [LINK: SH29]. Remember to get Vivi that
Oak Staff if you didn't get one on the first disc/lately.
You can't go further past the village for some strange custom, so exit town
once again.
o----------------------------------------o
o----------------------------------------o----------------------------------o
| Continuing the saga, a friendly 'Ladybird' enemy appears around here, in |
| Magdalene Forest, and wants a couple of Ore. It'll give 20 AP + an Ether! |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
Head to the eastern beach, near the Qu's Marsh, and get southbound. Enter a
thick forest 'dome' in the very back part and enter it. Zidane reminds the
party about the pyntie-hats living "so deep in the forest that owls don't
even live there." Y'see, the owls on the tree branches will leave one by one
as you take the right path, and by checking the sign, you can figure out the
path that leads to where "there are no owls". In layman's terms, y'just have
to go right -> right -> left -> right.
Either way, everyone automatically infiltrates...

Watch the 'Different Language' by approaching the path near the synth shop,
then enter to find Dagger. Enter the inn to find Vivi, and when prompted,
agree to rest. The next day, a mage directs the party to go past the Conde
Petie Sanctuary, where the source of the Mist is allegedly. You can leave, but
don't forget to visit the weapon shop [SH30], item shop [SH31] which carries
Hi-Potions and Remedies; and, last, the synth shop [SH32] which has a bunch
of good equips to make.
[ITEMS:]
* [ETHER] inside item shop, near left entrance

* By the weapon shop's entrance, get the [ELIXIR]
* In the inn's bedroom, pick up the [VIRGO] Stellazzio
* In the synth shop interior, rob a chest of [2000 GIL].
* Climb the synth shop's ladder to the roof, and get the [843 GIL].
* Gysahl Greens can be found in chocobo stable
* Tell the item shop mage to get the "usual," then use the ladder behind
the counter to get the [BLACK BELT]. This option may not appear until
Zidane eavesdrops on the two mages from the synth shop's roof platforms.
When done return to Conde Petie.

Some funny "hitching" occurs. Afterwards, if you want to see another scene in
the same vein, tell Vivi/Quina to get married and view the 'Nuptial Joy' ATE.
Either way, a "thief" appears somewhere and runs off to the mountain path.
Before you leave, board the Kirkboat from the left side and get the [DIAMOND]
on its top. Save and enter the mountain path/Sanctuary.

yourself down the lowroad.
There's a vine up here that leads back to the first screen. Take the [TENT]
and [RED STONE] from the shrine nearby, then double-back (again). Enter the

Inflict Silence via Dagger/Tent trick to stop it from using its Curaga
spell, and spread Float around with a single casting to make Earthquake
miss. Slow is the only other abnormality to inflict, which should give
everyone leeway. Put all the mages in the back row and sling Bio while
slinging Cura amongst the allies (R1/L1 button!). I'll also note that
the Fairy Flute is NOTORIOUSLY hard to steal, and if you can't get it
after awhile, forget it 'cause it ain't that good (as a matter of fact,
while I'm writing this, it's the first time I've stolen it in about ten
tries; some people have gone four hours with no luck!).
Eiko says the dwarves' "Sanctuary" is mostly known as the "Iifa Tree," and
directs everyone to her place. Take the [YELLOW STONE] by where Hilgigars
fell and go right out of the screen. On the lower root, take it into a new

After a nice kupo-type greeting, it's off to the fountain plaza. When Ziddy
can move again, get the [LIBRA] Stellazzio by the fountain's broken piece
and talk to Dagger. The 'Eiko's Feelings' ATE will play, where she tries to
make good food for all. If you want great food, pick:
Mocha -----> Dig up potatoes

Chimomo ---> Help in the kitchen
Momatose --> Go fishing
Get the [TENT] by where Dagger was sitting initially, too.
---
Talk to Vivi south of the fountain when the ATE's done, then go north of the
fountain and try to enter the Eidolon Wall. Quina should appear and jump in
the water ("Squeeeee!!!" <- LOL). Return to Vivi and try to enter the kitchen,
making Morrison invite Ziddy to view the Eidolon Wall's interior. Watch the
'Eiko's Kitchen' ATE in the fountain square, and:
* Get enough water for 11 people

* Leave out the oglop if prompted
* When Momatose catches a fish, tell him to NOT let go. This allows Quina to
help out with the culinary preparations...
---
When you go to the Wall, bring Dagger (by the town entrance) to see it with
Zidane. Enter inside, watch what's going on, then exit again. View the Eiko's
Kitchen 2 ATE
As Zidane, talk to Mog in the kitchen doorway to commence the eatin'. How
good it is depends on how much water you made, if Quina helped, and so on.
Afterwards, clear the table as Zidane and bring the cauldron into the sink.
Pick up the [KIRMAN COFFEE] by the waterfall's edge, then get the [PHOENIX
PINION] and [ORE] in the dining room. Try to leave and Momatose'll suggest
you sleep (accept).

The next morning, Eiko still holds the fourth party slot in place of Quina.
Off to the Iifa Tree! Re-enter town and Morrison will be selling items since
his town has no "capital" (^_^) [LINK: SH33].

miss due to its size...

Follow the roots six screens to where Mocchi is; give him the letter if you
remembered to get it from Mogryo. Past him is an odd thing that turns out to
be an elevator, taking everyone deeper inside the tree...
---
In the second screen down the roots, look for an offshoot with the option to
"push something." Do so to drop a [PHOENIX DOWN] chest. There's a [HI-POTION]
on your descent, too. The third screen down, look on the left side where the
there's a hidden switch -- this drops a [HEALING ROD] chest in the area right
before.
Around the downward-spiral path's first twist, keep some eyes peeled for an
[ETHER] in a blind spot. The treasure chest in plain sight is a [LAMIA'S
FLUTE] and a [REMEDY] is half-hidden left of it.Exit to the south when done.
---
There's a weird leaf-shaped thing here, which turns out to be an...elevator!

Yes, that seems to be everything's function 'round here. While taking it down
there are a few mandatory battles -- first's a Zombie trio, second's just one
Dracozombie. Life/Phoenix Down/curative magic is a good strategy on 'em.
---
Equip "Body Temp" on everyone!!!
At the bottom, there a few items to collect. There's an [ELIXIR] by the first
stairway and a [BRIGANDINE] on the lower level, in a blind spot. Inspect the
"(?)" left of where Vivi/Eiko are standing to cue up some scenes. Tonight's
the night for a boss fight done right. :D

Two words of advice: first, don't use fire -- this only makes it catch on
fire and use its "Fire Blades" attack on everyone. Second, it's undead so
you can kill it instantly with the Life spell. You'll probably want to
swipe that Brigandine, though, which will be useful in awhile... If ya
want to go to the highroad in beating this guy, inflict Darkness/Slow 'n'
pound it with Bio/Cura and physical attacks. Remember that if Mustard
Bomb works, and someone's inflicted with Heat, they'll KO themselves if
any command's selected; just let it wear off before you do anything with
'em. ...LOL @ 1000-year reign? ^___^
Afterwards, it's back to Madain Sari... I suggest having Zidane learn the
'Distract' ability (from "Black Belt" accessory).

When you get to town, follow Eiko into the kitchen and enter the room down
by the fishing spot. Get the [SURVIVAL VEST] and [PHOENIX DOWN] when Eiko
leaves, then it's off to the Eidolon Wall! At the wall, choose the "peek

them to your cause. Heal up when the option presents itself and enter inside

It's a mano-e-mano fight now, and shouldn't be too hard. You can either
go on the initiative and attack or build up a Trance -- either way's fine
if you've got the Rune Tooth equipped. Scarlet'll jump around, so if you
time your attack wrong, it'll miss and elicit a laugh from him; always
choose to 'Attack' when he's just moved to be safe. He seems to take more
damage when he's jumping around, too...not sure what that's about. Just
heal when he's avoiding Zidane and this'll be cake.
Eiko gets back her precious item, safe and sound. Return to the room below
the kitchen to have Eiko wear her item as a [MEMORY EARRING]. When Dagger
leaves, exit through the dining room and find the "(!)" on the landing just
outside. When the boat scenes conclude, Eiko will join the team permanently.
And...you'll get a new party member, too [Default: Amarant]! Yes, such a nice
joyous event... For the first time, you'll be able to choose who stays in and
out of the party! Eiko's got the better cure magic, so I kicked Garnet out
for Amarant.
Oh well, back to the Iifa Tree! Don't forget to equip Amarant to your liking!

Once some of the theatrics have been done, Dagger runs off on her own and
the party is changed (if she was in it). When the party reforms, talk to
Mocchi who's half-hidden nearby and save/tent if you need to. Follow the
root down a ways, where a few mandatory mistodon fights take place, and get
the [AQUAMARINE], which allows Dagger to summon Leviathan. Enjoy the show...

After a couple scenes, the action's in Vivi's hands. Head south into the
street where Vivi started the game, walking to Ilia's grandma's house. Take
the [9 GIL] savings there. Nothing in the square to the south, though, and
Vivi can't leave...
o--------------------------o------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Hippaul Racing | See 'HPPL' for more details! |
o--------------------------o------------------------------o-----------------o
| This can ONLY be done before you go to the minitheater. Vivi can help get |
| Hippaul's fat self into shape (at his mother's urging) for some prizes. |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
The item shop's on par with the best of 'em now [LINK: SH34], and in the
main square, the synthesis shop [LINK: SH35] and weapon shop [SH36] are
open this time around. Don't bother buying a Pearl Rouge, though; synthing
a Moonstone for one makes little sense, since you can buy them in Treno's
auction house.
North of the square, at the docks, get the [PHOENIX PINION] and the huge
[3927 GIL] cache by the two guards' stands. At the town church, deliver
the letter you got in Fossil Roo to Kupo (finally!), and receive the
[KUPO NUT] in return! Also ring that bell for Hippaul's treasures: a [SHIVA
CARD] and [RAMUH CARD]!
o------------------------------o
o------------------------------o--------------------------------------------o
| Serving a Phoenix Pinion, Hi-Potion, and Elixir for 777 gil this time...! |
| Make sure you do this as Vivi, as he'll be gone when the POV's on Zidane! |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
When ready to proceed, head to the alley by the square and try to enter the
mini-theater. Agree to see it with Blank and Marcus, then descend to Ruby's
sitting room. The view'll change to...
...Dagger! Doctor Tot will give her the [OPAL], [TOPAZ], and [AMETHYST]
gemstones, which bestow the ability to use more eidolons. When the view
changes to Eiko, enter the castle balcony to see a couple talking scenes
with Baku. Soon the POV'll change to Zidane...
---
Now that he's shaken off his funk, re-enter the mini-theater and search out
the [2680 GIL] near the foreground. Enter the gondola dock to get Freya and
Amarant in the party.
o----------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Gamblin' with the Bros |
o----------------------------------o----------------------------------------o
| Now that Zidane's in the party, the three brothers in the equipment shop |
| will invite him to play "their game." It's basically a Final Fantasied |
| version of "double or nothing" over and over. Pay them 50 bucks; guess |
| the correct brother and receive double your prize. Far as I know, there |
| is no grand prize of any kind, just gil. Also, if you choose not to play, |
| the game resets, so you've got to risk all to win...half. Um, yeah. >___> |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
Hitch a ride on the gondola to get to the castle. Search the two bells by
the fountain, here, for an [ETHER] and [PHOENIX PINION]. There's also a
[LAPIS LAZULI] behind the fountain. Make a beeline for the western wing,
where the tower's closed off but the way to the harbor's been opened. Get
the [PHOENIX PINION] by the portcullis, and the room with the Neptune statue,
get the [LEO] Stellazzio in a corner by the door!
Enter the castle to be granted an audience with Dagger, then it's off to
Treno for various reasons.

| _ _ |
| |_| Chimera Armlet |_| Rebirth Ring |
|___________________________________________________________________________|
Control falls in Zidane's hands once everyone splits up. Watch the 'Eiko
Talks Life' ATE then 'How He Ended Up Here'. You can choose to have Vivi
"stop by his home" or "stay in Treno." If you pick the former, you can see
a special scene in Quan's Dwelling if you take Zidane there; pick the latter
to cue the "Hippo's Prize" ATE, which shows a hippo kid with a Namingway Card
enter the card tournament. This allows Zidane to win the special card, which
can be used later to rename characters at leisure. There's still a bunch of
optional (some one-time-only) stuff to do, listed below:
o--------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Free Chimera Armlet! |
o--------------------------------o------------------------------------------o
| View the 'Memories by the Water' ATE to find the four-armed pickpocket |
| who robbed Garnet earlier prowling on Eiko to get back at Amarant. Then, |
| head to the card stadium and view the 'City People' ATE. During those |
| events, Eiko will appropriate a [CHIMERA ARMLET] dropped by "Mr. Wimpy." |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o-----------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Knight House Fight Club |
o-----------------------------------o---------------------------------------o
| Last time it was a Griffin; now it's a Catoblepas. If you want to go solo |
| with Zidane (recommended), synth an Angel Bless and equip Beast Killer & |
| Jelly. The Coral Ring tops off the setup. Now, its petrification ability |
| will miss and it'll heal you with its commonplace Thundara attacks. Soul |
| Blade the Angel Bless' confusion ability to narrow down its repertoire in |
| that state (i.e. only Heave). It's got about 3000 HP and a victor'll win |
| 15000g. |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o-------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Treno Auction House |
o-------------------------------o-------------------------------------------o
| Treno's offering up a few new finds, now, which may interest the player. |
| The first is the Dark Matter item, which allows Dagger to learn the Odin |
| summon (deal Death to all enemies). The second's the key item 'Rat Tail,' |
| which can be bought and resold to the NPC 'Adventurer' outside the synth |
| shop for 25000g max. Don't bother with the Anklet/Feather Boots, though, |
| both which can be synthed. |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o-----------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: The Burman Coffee |
o-----------------------------o---------------------------------------------o
| This can only be done before you finish the card tournament. As Zidane, |
| leave town and return to Dali -- you can enter the mayor's house because |
| he is participating in the tournament, too. There's a sleeping kid, which |
| will catch you as you search the room, however. Keep him sleeping in that |
| state by searching one (empty) place repeatedly, then move onto the next |
| location. The 'Desk' area has a [MINI-BRAHNE] figurine; the 'Heater' has |
| the [MAYOR'S KEY], which you're looking for. Open the windmill's locked |
| door with this and get the [30000 GIL] by the chocobo; search that area |
| once again for the [BURMAN COFFEE]. In addition, you can reap the upper |
| part of the dormant windmill for a [CACHUSHA] and [ELIXIR]. If you've got |
| all three 'coffee' key items, trade them into Morrid at Observatory Mt., |
| earning the theater ship replica (which shows up in Tantalus' hideout). |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
(Don't forget about the Stellazzio-coin redemption, too!)
o----------------------------------------o
o----------------------------------------o----------------------------------o
| Now that it's Disc 3, you can find the Ragtimer an additional seven (7) |
| more times. This also carries over to Disc 4, so I won't mention it any |
| longer. |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
---
Far as shops go, the slum item shop is upgraded to full [LINK: SH37], the
synthesis shop now matches Alexandria's stock [LINK: SH38], and the weapon
store's got some new stuff, namely the Coral Sword/Brigandine [LINK: SH39].
---
When ready to continue, enter the card stadium and register at the vendor.
You have to win two games (MANDATORY) before you can face the champion, whose
outcome doesn't really matter. I'll outline a few things about this, though:
* Aim to beat the champion -- you'll win a [REBIRTH RING] for doing so
* You can save after each match, so there's no reason to lose; just reset!
* You can lose the first two matches repeatedly without consequence; only
the last match is of any use, prize-wise.
* If you watched the "Hippo's Prize" ATE, the second opponent (Mario of the
Slums) will have a winnable Namingway Card. This allows a user to change
his/her name later on, so try to get it if you can.
* You don't need intricate knowledge of the game; pointing arrows at cards'
sides that don't have arrows automatically flips 'em over, and isn't such
a hard technique to master.
Really, there's no reason to /not/ get the Rebirth Ring if you're a casual
player -- it teaches Auto-Life/Life/Revive! Afterwards, the regent will take
everyone back towards Alexandria...!

As Dagger, it'll be time to organize the soldiers. Whether or not she assigns
them correctly is based on the functions you may have seen on the first disc.
Here's how they should all be assigned:
[FUNCTION] [SEND OUT...]

* Gather Information -------------------------> Blutzen & Kohel
* Protect the Townspeople --------------------> Weimar & Haagen
* Contact Lindblum to Request Reinforcements -> Breireicht & Laudo
* Begin preparations to fire the cannons -----> Dojebon & Mullenkedheim
If you get them all correctly, Beatrix gives Dagger the [ANGEL EARRINGS]; if
you start messing up, the item's potential depreciates, giving you either an
[ELIXIR], [HI-POTION], or nothing. The view then changes to...
---
Beatrix and Steiner, fighting mistodons out in town! Put her Cross Helm onto
Rusty, if you want, and equip him with something good (preferably not the
Rebirth Ring). Equip Undead Killer and Insomniac, too, if ya have it.
Kill the first mistodon in the ticketbooth square, and exit south. Another
battle occurs when you try to head towards the bar; when you finally do, the
3rd battle happens (two at once). Both their attack shuld do the trick, but
the Seiken skills help, too. Heal up after each battle! Destroy the 4th, 5th,
6th, and 7th waves in the next alley, which come consecutively (Steiner'll
get an auto-trance in the last fight). The view switches back to...
---
...Dagger! She'll be unable to leave and enter some siderooms, so just head
up towards her room. Instead of entering it or the queen's chamber, take the
left room to find an up-stairway. Follow the new path to the altar. After a
few Eiko scenes, the view's back to Zidane's crew.
---
Go up the stairs and save in the guardhouse. There's an optional boss that
can be fought now for A GREAT AND RARE accessory that teaches Auto-Haste,
so you won't want to miss it. Put everyone into the back row (magic potency
doesn't differ) -- you'll be glad you did.
o--------------------------o------------------------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL BOSS: Tantarian | STEAL Demon's Mail, Elixir, Ether, Silver Fork |
o--------------------------o------------------------------------------------o
| If you didn't beat it on Disc 2, this is the last time you'll be able to |
| fight it in the castle library. Equip the 'Bandit' skill, make sure that |
| Freya can use Reis's Wind, put the Rebirth Ring on Amarant so he can use |
| Revive, and make sure Vivi's got the Bio spell. 'Counter' works well here |
| too. Tantarian's got about 20,000 HP, and a few tricks up his sleeve: |
| |
| * Edge --------> Physical damage to one |
| * Poison ------> Inflicts Poison on 1 target [TNTR] |
| * Paper Storm -> Physical damage to everyone |
| * Doom --------> Inflicts death sentence on one person |
| |
| Tantarian is actually a monster inside the book, and to damage it, you'll |
| have to attack, deal damage, then see if the page it opens to has the foe |
| inside. Keep trying; his real state is between pages 150-200. When Tant |
| is found, ONLY USE BIO on it! Physical attacks on his revealed state will |
| only reset the process. When "opened" Tantarian will only use crap Poison |
| magic, giving the party time to heal up to full for the next go-round w/ |
| Doom and such. Use Chakra to replenish the MP supply, for both Vivi and |
| Freya. Its Demon's Mail is the only worthwhile item to steal, but is a |
| bit hard to get...hope it turns out alright for you! |
| |
| [Tyler Warner] wrote in to tell about the Auto-Reflect strategy. Focusing |
| with Tantarian's closed, and bouncing Fira off allies (each with Auto- |
| -Reflect) gives four consecutive Fira hits on the boss, able to do 9999 |
| if enough Focusing has been done. It makes the battle quite easy! |
| |
| Emerge victorious to get: 3146 EXP, 30 AP, 4472g, Running Shoes accessory |
| |
| PS - It's susceptible to Darkness/Slow. Lead off with the tent trick, yo! |
| PSS - When the book is open, use Focus a few times; Fira murders the guy! |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
If you beat it, go back and save.

When ready, head up the same path Dagger took and bring Zidane up the altar
steps. It's off to...

When Zidane wakes up in the castle's guestroom, get the [EGOIST'S ARMLET]
and [ELIXIR] nearby. Accept to deliver the [LETTER: Mogki -> Moodon], too.
Talk to Blank and Zidane'll leave. Take the elevator down to Dragon's Gate
and find the hidden [REMEDY] by the station's blind spot; there's even a
[CHIMERA ARMLET] at the Serpent's Gate station. When ready, go to the upper-
level telescope and see Dagger; then, it's off to the regent's chambers --
talk to the door guard to gain entrance.
Cid gives a few details, a few ATEs play, and then it's back to the castle
guestroom. Doctor Tot tells of an anodyne to change the regent back to his
normal form...hopefully. It involves three potions, and Zidane volunteers
to get them:
----------------
BEAUTIFUL POTION
----------------
The first is in the business district, we'll say. Remember to give Moodon at
the inn his letter, and in the pickle plaza, look on the left side of the
reconstruction for a [SAGITTARIUS] Stellazzio! In Card Freak Gon's house, go
and get the [ELIXIR] and [REMEDY] chests. In the shop square, talk to Alice
about the potion and she'll donate the [BEAUTIFUL POTION] to you!
-------------------------------
UNUSUAL POTION & STRANGE POTION
-------------------------------
Enter the artist's studio and get the [LAPIS LAZULI], then inquire about the
potions. He's never heard of them, but he's got one just the same -- check
the corner by the stairbottom for the [STRANGE POTION]. Get an [ORE] chest
before leaving. Down at the Tantalus Hideout, Cinna will automatically
donate the [UNUSUAL POTION] to Zidane's good cause. Make sure to get the
[1273 GIL], [970 GIL], and [4826 GIL] items in the hideout proper!
---
Return to Cid's throne room and see how the salve turns out. He'll want his
wife back to help him with his problem, so he'll commission his shipwright
to get a boat in order for everyone. Vivi suggests going to the black mages'
village to check things out. Serpent's Gate, on the base level, is the new
destination. Get on the boat (Blue Narciss) to be able to move around the
map on your own. Before I forget, Lindblum's synth shop is upgraded to what
it was in Alexandria [LINK: SH41] and Dragoos' weapon shop, which has a few
new hats and stuff, now carries items (including Magic Tags) [LINK: SH40].
.----------------------------------------------.
| BLUE NARCISS CONTROLS: | Regent Cid will be on the

'----------------------------------------------'
NOTE: Dagger will get "can't concentrate" messages in battle from now on,
meaning the commands she inputs will not reconcile. This doesn't always occur
but I HIGHLY suggest using Eiko instead of her (which I'd do anyway, but this
really makes it a better choice).
There's a whole bunch of sidequest stuff to do now, so I'll just put it in a

separate section. Skip ahead if you don't care, although I suggest reading it
in case you get slighted later on... And there is A LOT of stuff you can do,
resulting in some nice equipment.
Next stop: Black Mage Village!

Avast, the waves are your highway and you've got a plethora of extraneous
junk you can do now. I'll recap some of the previous/current things and add
the mark new stuff as such.
o----------------o
| NEW BLUE MAGIC |
o----------------o
There's a crapload of good blue magic you can get now. Here's the ones
that are suggested (e-mail me if I forget any!):
* Adamantoise
'-HP : 3587
'-Found: Lanar Island (where third Qu's Marsh is)
'-Magic: Earth Shake -> earth-elemental damage to all enemies
* Anemone
'-HP : 3586
'-Magic: Bad Breath -> Confuse/Darkness/Poison/Slow/Mini on an enemy
* Feather Circle
'-HP : 619
'-Found: Lost Continent (Mitmakis Ice Field)
'-Magic: LV4 Holy -> holy damage on enemies w/ levels divisible by 4
* Gimme Cat
'-HP : 4683
'-Magic: Auto-Life (revives one target automatically upon KO)
* Zombie Whale
'-HP : 3730
'-Found: Beaches on eastern side of Outer Continent
'-Magic: LV5 Death (kills enemies with levels divisible by 5)
* Zombie
'-HP : 973
'-Found: Iifa Tree
'-Magic: Roulette (randomly kills one ally/enemy)
o--------------------------o
| QU'S MARSH FROG-CATCHING |
o--------------------------o
There is one Qu's Marsh on the Mist Continent, one on the Outer Continent,
and a third on an island far, far away. See the western continent you've
never been to, and that long north/south stretching island on its SW side?
There's a little teardrop-shaped island a little south of there that has a
black spot on it -- that's Lanar Island, where the third Qu's Marsh is. All
three places will have revitalized their populations, so reaping 'em now is
a good idea. If you catch 33, you can at least get the [BISTRO FORK] which
has sixty-eight attack power.
o-----------o
| ESTO GAZA | <----------[NEW!][SGZ1]
o-----------o
On the Lost Continent (the large NW island), land on the southern beach by
the chocobo tracks and head south/west to the manmade spiral-shaped object.
Just inside the terrace, take a right into the shop area [LINK: SH41]. And,
behind the counter, find the Throw-able [WING EDGE] item for Amarant. This
is the last chance you'll EVER have to get a Mythril Sword for Steiner; it
teaches Armor Break, remember?
o----------------------o
| ALEXANDRIA REVISITED | <----------NEW!
o----------------------o
To get back into the castle, go to the NE side of the Mist Continent and
disembark in the harbor (marked on map). Take the statue up to the dock and
you'll be able to re-enter town. By the castle gondola, get the [OPAL] and
[PERIDOT] by the left side and behind the fountain, respectively. There's a
[SAPPHIRE] near the rubble blocking the main entrance, too.
At the townside dock, [4832 GIL] and a [TOPAZ] are lying by the broken guard
platforms. Go to the square, now. The equipment shop entrance has [365 GIL]
laying on its doorstep, and a [REMEDY]'s nestled near the southern gate. An
[AMETHYST] is also by said gate, on the left side. Both the equipment shop
and synthesis shop are dust, now; however, the synthesist can still be found
in the mini-theater's alley. A little girl running around in the town square
will also give a [ALEXANDRIA CARD] to you. South of there, in the area with
a cook banging nails with a pan, there's an [ETHER] near the blocked-out door
entrance.
In the alley south of the ex-item shop, a [SAPPHIRE] is near where Ilia's
grandma used to live. Nothing else here, as the entrance plaza's been made
into gravel. Exit at leisure! Remember that the [LEO] Stellazzio can still
be obtained in the castle-side Neptune Room!
o--------------------o
| CHOCOBO HOT & COLD | <---NEW?
o--------------------o
If you enter the forest, Mene'll say he found another place to dig up some
chocographs -- in fact, this is the place you'll have to go if you've dug
up all the ones on the first disc (see 'CHOC' for details). The island he's
talking about is 'Palmnell,' in the southern sea -- you'll need the reef
ability granted by the Healing Shore chocograph before you can get to it,
however. Luckily, speaking with Mene marks the location on the map. Land on
the island just west of it, though; it's got the tracks. Follow the reef
north to the western continent, then back down to the lagoon. Whew.
You'll need the Ocean ability to play the entire map, so Mene only charges
30 gil for a half-minute. Pts/bonuses are double their worth in the forest,
but your 'damage' you do to the ground is divided by two (rounded up). So,
at level 26, you'll be doing 13 per peck. Here're the chocographs that can
be dug up at this location at the current point in time:
• Forgotten Lagoon • Abandoned Lagoon • Dawn Lagoon

• Dusk Plains
Once those four are dug up, Mene suggests going to dig up chocographs or
returning to the forest. If you depleted the forest supply, it'll stay that
way until you get the mountain ability, at which time the following can be
dug up (including Dead Peppers, now):
• Green Plains • Forgotten Plains • Cold Lagoon

• Forbidden Forest
Once the Ocean ability is obtained (from Green Plains), the following can
be obtained from the lagoon:
• Outer Island 2 • Ocean • Sea at Dusk

o--------------------o
| CHOCOBO DIVE SPOTS | <-- NEW!
o--------------------o
Once you get the Ocean ability, the entire world (besides Forgotten Cont.)
is your oyster! You may have noticed clusters of bubbles around in a few
select locations. WELL! With the mountain ability, Dead Peppers can be dug
up in the forest/lagoon and these let choco dive under the water and, guess
what? -- there are treasure chests down there, too! Here's a list of where
you can get stuff:
* At the southern tip of the Forgotten Continent (western one with no beach
landings), a small inlet has some bubblin' in it. The reward is 10 Remedy,
1 Black Robe, 1 Genji Gloves, and 1 Blue Narciss Card.
* Enter Quan's Dwelling and go to the landing/fishing spot. Inspect the edge
with Zidane to have him locate some foam; choose the dead pepper option
when he says it (if he doesn't, you don't have any!). Jump and he'll dig
up the treasure of: 9 Ore + 15 Topaz + 1 Tiger Racket + 1 Red Rose Card!
If you jump off the landing, you get the item 100% of the time; doing it
manually is a lot harder.
* On the east part of the Outer Continent, in the desert region, a peninsula
juts south towards the Mist Continent. A little ways into the ocean (SW)
there is a bubble cluster waiting to be picked. It's 8 Straw Hat, 8 Pearl
Armlet, 7 Aloha T-Shirt, and 8 Sandals. All these things suck, but it's a
fun set of novelty equipment.
* See how the Lost Continent (NW island) and the Outer Continent's northern
island sort of arc towards each other? Follow the hypothetical arc from
one island to the next, and in the middle is a bubble cluster. Inside is
50 Potion + 25 Hi-Potion + 9 Ether + 7 Elixir!
o------------------------o
| CRACKS IN THE MOUNTAIN | <--- NEW!
o------------------------o
Those Dead Peppers have different uses, y'know -- they can also blast open a
few holes in mountainsides. There are only a few of these, and you can't do
all of 'em currently like the dive spots.
* On the Lost Continent, in the NW area of 'Seatence Ice Field', look along
the northern coast's mountain range. A east-facing side will have a weird
criss-cross marking; use a Dead Pepper on it. This'll give you a nice boon
of: 41 Lapis Lazuli + 1 Rosetta Ring + 1 Protect Ring + 1 Airship Card
o-----------------------o
| DETOUR: VARIOUS GATES | <--- NEW!
o-----------------------o
With a mountain chocobo, you can have access to every point on the Mist
Continent. There are a few 'gates' you can get to and loot for some items.
Don't put it off, 'cause they won't be available on the last disc.
* South Gate - Bohden Gate (mountainside by Chocobo's Forest)
Inside, get the [MULTINA RACKET] and the [ELIXIR CARD] on top of a wagon.
* South Gate - lower elevation one by Evil Forest
There's two [ELIXIR]s to be found and [3206 GIL]. Mosco's here, now, too.
o---------------------o
| TRENO AUCTION HOUSE |
o---------------------o
If you return on a mountain chocobo, you'll find that two new items are up
for grabs: the Promist Ring and the Thief Gloves. The former teaches Absorb
HP, Absorb MP, and Mag Elem Null; the latter teaches Zidane Master Thief,
which lets him steal an enemy's best items first.
o-------------------------o
| BRYAN ROOTRUNNER'S CARD |
o-------------------------o
If you caught a mountain oglop on the Conde Petie mountain path, and didn't
add it into the soup (not sure about this part), talk to Bryan back in the
dwarf village -- he's by the shop -- and exchange it for an [OGLOP CARD].
o----------------o
| MOGNET CENTRAL |
o----------------o
With an ocean chocobo in tow, head to the talon-shaped island north of
the Outer Continent (Cazedil Plains). There's a mountain crack there, and
this place is behind it. There's nothing to do there right now, but I
thought I'd mention it.

32) Black Mage Village Revisited [WK32]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯| ITEMS ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯|¯
| _ _ _ |
| |_| Virgo Stellazzio |_| Black Belt |_| 2000 Gil |
| |_| Elixir |_| 843 Gil |
|___________________________________________________________________________|
Village is full of still waters, now; check out Mr. 288 at the cemetary and
go to the chocobarn. Apparently, Kuja's secret palace is on the eastern rim
of the continent, but that's all he knows. No shops here either, but you can
still collect items if you didn't get them last time:
* Virgo Stellazzio -> in the inn's bedroom

* Black Belt -------> Item shop's upper loft
* 2000 Gil ---------> Chest in the synth shop
* Elixir -----------> By the weapon shop exterior
* 843 Gil ----------> Climb to synth shop roof and follow walkway to chest
---
On the Outer Continent's eastern desert, there are four sandpits. Notice that
three of them have sand rising out of them...because they're actually Antlion
trap battles; the other one is the entrance to the palace. THIS IS THE POINT
OF NO RETURN FOR A VERY LONG TIME -- PREPARE BEFORE ENTERING...!
NOTE: The Mythril Sword won't be available after taking the plunge, so if you
are one of those people that just has to have every skill, go get it in Esto
Gaza, on the upper-left continent.
After a few events, Kuja captures everyone and makes Zidane choose a party to
take with him on a "fetch quest" expedition to Oeilvert. This location will
have a magic barrier, so Kuja doesn't want to go himself. If you read between
the lines, you won't choose a magic-heavy party -- any magic command (Black,
White, Blue) will be grayed-out and unselectable! So, you'll want to balance
the parties. Here's what I suggest:
GO : Zidane, Dagger, Freya, Vivi

STAY: Eiko, Amarant, Quina, Steiner
Here's the reason behind this:
* Dagger still cannot concentrate and is a liability in the palace. She won't
be a main magic-caster, anyway, at the destination.
* Freya's ultimate weapon is obtainable coming up, provided you've been doing
the Chocobo Hot & Cold minigame.
* Vivi balances out the two mage/fighter party, and can be an item-user at
the destination.
* Eiko's the best white mage and better serves the party at the 'Palace.
* Amarant is a powerhouse and has Chakra, which helps keep the MP in order.
* Quina's LV5 Death can slay EVERY enemy in the palace -- it's a no-brainer.
* Steiner can also be a powerhouse without Vivi's magic, and Darkside helps.
You can get by with switching fighters around, I s'pose, but the party at the
palace will need the most help -- keep that in mind.
When finished, have Zidane run to the hangar (Ogre/Grimlocks are around) and
board the Hilde Garde 1. This luxury airship'll take everyone on a cruise to
the Forgotten Continent, which is the western one that has no beaches. Zorn
and Thorn'll sell items if you need it, too -- just talk with them at the
airship landing site [LINK: SH42].
o-------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Qu's Marsh #4 |
o-------------------------o-------------------------------------------------o
| Unless you brought Quina with, which you shouldn't've, this is kinda dumb |
| and not worthwhile. But, it'll help with Frog Drop either way, so I'll |
| mention it. |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
The northern tip, past the Qu's Marsh, has chocobo tracks, which you'll no
doubt prefer to the monster-ridden canyons. If you have a mountain chocobo,
there is a bunch of things you can do!
o--------------------o
o--------------------o------------------------------------------------------o
| Earth Shake -> Adamantoise (Earth-elemental damage on all enemies) |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o

o-----------------------o---------------------------------------------------o
| [FORGOTTEN PLAINS] |
| '-Dig Up: Disc 3 [Chocobo's Forest, after getting Mountain ability] |
| '-Redeem: Disc 3 |
| '-Needed: Mountain ability |
| '-A Hint: "Look for the withered plateau, kupo." |
| '-Locate: On the Forgotten Continent's western talon-shaped peninsula, |
| | the layered peninsula's northern part (near Ipsen's Castle) has|
| | some treasure. |
| '-Reward: 17 Ore + 5 Ether + 14 Opal + 1 Demon's Mail |
| |
| [DUSK PLAINS] |
| '-Dig Up: Disc 3 [Chocobo's Lagoon] |
| '-Needed: Mountain Ability |
| '-A Hint: "At a certain location on the Forgotten Continent, it is always|
| dusk, kupo." |
| '-Locate: Look SW of Oeilvert, over a mountain range by the coast |
| '-Reward: 12 Phoenix Down + 14 Ore + 1 Kaiser Knuckles + 1 Iron Man Card |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o-----------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Freya's Ultimate Weapon |
o-----------------------------------o---------------------------------------o
| Freya's ultimate weapon can be dug up with a mountain chocobo, in a half- |
| -hidden crack near Oeilvert. Check the world map and look at the Forgottn |
| Continent. The black spots stand for forested areas; there is only one of |
| those blotches on the western part of the continent, NW of Oeilvert's |
| location. On the second layer, look for a big black line (face SE) on the |
| cliffside. Crack it open with a Dead Pepper and you'll get [MAIDEN PRAYER]|
| and a [DRAGON'S HAIR] lance! There's a [GAUNTLETS] and [ODIN CARD] up in |
| there, too! With this spear, Freya should be doing 2000+ damage. Awesome! |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o----------------------------------o
| OPTIONAL: Cracks in the Mountain |
o----------------------------------o----------------------------------------o
| In the same vein as the above weapon-finding quest, on the eastern coast |
| of this continent, north of Oeilvert and even the eastern chocobo tracks, |
| there is a small enclosed area with a tiny forest. Next to that forest is |
| another crack that can be opened with a dead pepper: 19 Eye Drops, one |
| Madain's Ring, a Genji Helmet, and a Hilde Garde 1 Card! |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o----------------------------------------o
o----------------------------------------o----------------------------------o
| A friendly 'Jabberwock' appears in Seaways Canyon, wanting an Emerald for |
| some reason. Throw one its way and it'll hand over 40 AP and a Moonstone! |
| Just make sure to look for it in a forest -- it only appears there! |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
Anyway, to find Oeilvert (which is marked on the map, too), head south thru
Seaways Canyon. On the world map, this area is denoted by the pale, yellow/
orange-colored region amidst the brown. Follow south until the route curls
into a dead-end, which is the destination. Again, very easy to find with a
chocobo.

Epitaph enemies will appear in here; remember that you can kill 'em in an
instant by throwing a Soft their way! It really saves a lot of hassle.
'Kay, just inside the gate, look by the stairbottom for a [REMEDY] chest.
Up that stairway is a [RISING SUN]; enter west on that terrace. It leads
to an [ELIXIR] and a lightbulb-shaped device. Flip it on, backtrack down
the stairs, and enter right.
This 'star display' is where Mooel resides, so drop his letter off. The far
side of the room's got a [GAIA GEAR] chest, too.
o------------------------------o
o------------------------------o--------------------------------------------o
| It's a Hi-Potion, Emerald, and Elixir this time for 888 Gil. Note that if |
| you want to buy this, do it early; Stiltzkin disappears halfway through. |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
Double-back to that first room and go west on the low ground. Open up the
[DIAMOND SWORD] chest, watch the weird planet hologram, and get a [SHIELD
ARMOR] behind the thing. Exit towards the foreground (south). Crack open the
[POWER VEST] and [FEATHER BOOTS] by the four unused holograph displays. To
work them in the correct order, start on the Feather Boots platform and try
the one farthest from it; then, work your way down, ending with the one by
the lower door. Try the higher door, though.
This leads to a shiny crystal-ball-lookin' object that gives a timeline of

an ancient race. When it concludes, return to the room with the first planet
display and enter the (un)locked blue door in the north. Watch the dialogue
and return to the room with Mooel in it. The following abilities will help
coming up:
* Clear Headed (confuseproof)

* Bird Killer
* Auto-Regen
* Auto-Potion
* wind-protection equipment
Put any designated healers in the back row before you descend! Enter the
stairwell off the side of Mooel's room and take the [GULUG STONE] and...oh,
you can't...?

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
I'll try to generalize, since I know party formation differs a bit. Any
mage you have should be doling out Hi-Potions to counteract Photon, and
fixing anyone in Confuse status (weak physical attacks/Remedy). Try to
steal that Holy Lance if you can. It's also susceptible to Darkness,
Silence, and Slow -- use an Add ST effect or the tent trick to slap those
on. Only Photon and Boomerang are worth gawking at, and a steady round of
healing per turn should make party upkeep easy. If you find yourself in a
rut and dying, buy a bunch of Hi-Potions at Mimoza and put the Chemist
ability on your healers. With your mages in the back row, this shouldn't
be too much of a struggle. If you hold out for a Trance, Grand Lethal'll
do 9999 damage.
Rob the tombstone of the [GULUG STONE] and the POV is thrown back to...

Following Kuja's proclamation about a slow death, move the regent down to
the fork and take a right. A mini-game will start here.
The object is for Cid to creep close to the hedgehog pie's cage in a version
of "red light, green light," i.e. creep close when his back is turned, stop
when it's lookin' his way. There's a 360-second time limit to fetch the key;
but that's only half the puzzle. Cid will have to put some chess pieces on a
balance so he can approach the hourglass. Examine the scales to learn their
types, then put the following on:
* Clay + Stone + Iron
Everyone left behind (for me: Steiner, Eiko, Quina, Amarant) will emerge from
their cells and join up. In the room where Cid did his thing, there's a shop
setup by Mojito [LINK: SH44] and get the [LETTER: Mojito -> Mogsam]. What
follows is especially annoying, and hard to explain even with maps. I'll try
to do both, though, so that you get all bloodstones (useful in more ways
than one) and have a good chance at the end boss. Enter the hallway at the
cellroom fork to enter the dungeon proper...

C - Candle one MUST light to escape (START)
01) Turn on the first candle to light up a purple statue across the way.
Obtain the [PROMIST RING] and head up the hall.
02) There are three statues here. Run to the left and a staircase will come
out of nowhere (although some report running right will make the stair
appear as well). Follow that translucent one to the exit.
03) Travel to this small balcony and light the second candle. Return to the
three-statue room and get the [FAIRY EARRINGS] by the right gargoyle
before exiting up the normal stair.
04) This room is divided by two "walls" made of statues. Light all three
statues on the west side and travel to the eastern one via the balcony.
Here, light only the SW of the three to make some statues disappear back
on the other side. There's a bloodstone but isn't active, so light the
two candles beside it to remove the second wall. Ignite the two other
candles on the east side to close the balcony passage, but make the last
candle available to light. This'll make the bloodstone activate, and can
be taken for an [ANKLET]. With all candles ablaze, exit stage right.
05) Although this looks like a simple passage, there's another candle to be
lit. Take the bloodstone -- a [SHIELD ARMOR] -- before going upstairs.
06) Right by the entrance, and easily missable, is the fifth candle. Don't
miss it!
07) This is the "bookcase room" and has a few passages behind the library
books. Light the candle on the west side to make a staircase appear on
the east. Up at the top shelf, light the nearby candle to raise the shelf
and go behind it.
08) There's an [N-KAI ARMLET] off the pedestal and return to the library.
09) With the first level cleared, go to the middle shelf and light the candle;
this reveals the next exit.
10) Beyond, light the two candles and return to the library.
11) Light the lowest candle to make the lowest door open.
12) One candle beyond, one more down. Return.

13) In the library room, the west wall's now transparent. Talk to Mogsam and
deliver his letter and save up before going west again.
14) Here, light both candles by the gargoyle and get a [BLACK HOOD] from the
bloodstone pedestal. Unlight the left candle and exit onto the balcony
nearby, going into the similar-looking room.
15) Light both candles and the one in front of the portrait to make a
[VENETIA SHIELD] appear. Unlight the left candle, making a translucent
staircase appear. Go back and save...
16) Take the new staircase up to the last candle and attempt to light it.

The reason you collected the bloodstones is made evident -- the boss will
use their power to raise its defenses! It can:
* Disable all elemental damage from attacks

* Enhance its Magic Power stat
* Enhance its Defense stat
* Enhance its Evasion stat
* Enhance its Magic Defense stat
* Enhance its Magic Evasion stat
If you've found 'em all, the fight is way easier. Since it only uses magic,
cast Carbuncle to sling its own attacks right back its way; or, if Eiko is
not in the party, single-serve Reflect/Auto-Reflect works. Magic Hammer can
deplete its stock pretty easily, too. Bad Breath can inflict Darkness/Slow
if you want. Armor Break works as well, if Steiner's along. Regular attacks
should bring this 'defense mechanism' down pretty easily. o_o
When it's dead, light the last candle and take the warp out. The view will
change over to Zidane's crew who's just docking back in. Walk back to the
hangar's warp point. After Kuja beckons, enter the nearby room. Eiko'll be
out of the party for awhile, but before you leave, get the [NAMINGWAY CARD]
on the table. Return to the hangar to see Kuja's flown the coop. But, there
is still a way out! Hug the cavern wall near the hangar docking site to find
the exit. Lower the ladder down to the cliffs, and run onto the world map.

The Blue Narciss automatically tails the airship to the Lost Continent. Form

buy some Vaccines if you don't have any, and enter the mountain area where an
open door stands...

As you enter, take a left on the catwalk to the nearby building. There's
[9693 GIL] and [ETHER] lying around the area. Leave out the other side to a
ladder's dead-end, where a [RED HAT] is sitting. Backtrack to that first fork
and infiltrate the other building. Pass through to a well's top, and find a
small path to the right of it. A field icon beckons Zidane up and right, to
where a [GOLDEN HAIRPIN] can be found. Do a fireman slide down the well chain
when ready.
At the bottom, go right to find Moolan. Give him a letter and undertake his
request for a [LETTER: Moolan -> Mogtaka] to be delivered. Get the [WING EDGE]
in his room before exiting right again. Past the mineshaft beyond, it leads
to some scaffolding with a [GAIA GEAR] on it. There'll be a fixed battle with
two Red Dragons on the way back, however. Return to the well and go left this
time.
Enter the building at the fork to find some [DEMON'S MAIL], then enter the
mineshaft entrance at that same fork. Mogtaka is in here and has a mogshop
set up [LINK: SH46], but no equipment... There's a red dragon battle in the
room beyond [x1], and you can get the [ELIXIR] once it's dead. Return to the
well, now.
Pull the lever down thrice to drop a bucket further; slide down after it.
Kill the two red dragons that attack (mandatory) and proceed through the
wall (may want to go back and heal). A few scenes later, a [RIBBON]'s gotten
and it's up against a certain duo made into an uno! Vivi won't be joining
for this battle, but Eiko sure will.

This is actually a very easy fight (seriously!); the hard part is walking
away with the experience. Virus prevents a character from getting EXP at
the post-battle screen, and there's only been one shop that sells any
Vaccines so far in the game (Esto Gaza). Its Wings attack can do 1000+
damage to front-row party members with medium defense, but besides that,
ain't no thing, especially if you inflict Mini/Darkness/Slow with Quina's
Bad Breath (or similar)! Try to steal the vest and hairpin before you get
the last laugh on the jesters, even if you don't get the EXP. A memento!
Oh, and don't forget that this wussbag can be inflicted with Mini. =/
Afterwards, take a breath 'cause it's back to...

Hilda wants Zidane to come to the meeting room the next morning. Get the
[LETTER: Mogki -> Kumool] before you go upstairs to said place, though. The
lady tells of Kuja's plans, where he's from, and that his home is 'connected'
to the Shimmering Island (that one icy isle by Esto Gaza). She also tells of
an old castle on the Lost Continent that can help them get to Kuja's home...
After a few scenes, Dagger will be in the party and she won't have that pesky
concentration problem any longer. A [GARNET] will also be in the inventory,
which teaches her the Bahamut eidolon. The Hilde Garde 3 will also be ready
to go...can I get a hooray for airship transportation? Talk to the crewman
to change parties; Erin'll steer the craft.
AIRSHIP NAVIGATION:
* X button -> Forward

* Triangle -> To ship's deck
* Square ---> Reverse
* Circle ---> Disembark (at green/brown-colored ground only)
* Select ---> Switch navigation map
* L1 / R1 --> Swivel camera 'round
* L2 -------> Align the camera
When you're ready to go, proceed to the castle on the NW part of the
Forgotten Continent. It's in a basin, but you can land right by it. There
is still a bunch of stuff you can do, now, though...
o----------------o
| Secret Elixir! |
o----------------o--------------------------------------------------------o
| Enter Lindblum through the Falcon's Gate and dock; then, inspect it for |
| the boarding options. Choose to go to the bridge instead of immediately |

o-------------o-------------------------------------------------------------o
| Now that the forest/lagoon can be dug in again, it's possible to dig up |

| to you that they form a new chocograph: the Mist Ocean. Here's the how-to |
| on it: |
| |
| [MIST OCEAN] |
| '-Obtain: Dig up all 6 chocograph pieces to form this chocograph |
| '-Needed: Ocean ability |
| '-A Hint: "Be patient and dig! Dig! Dig, kupo!" |
| '-Locate: Off NE coast of the Mist Continent by the two small isles |
| '-Reward: Fly ability |
| |
| [OUTER ISLAND] |
| '-Dig Up: Disc 3 [Chocobo's Air Garden] |
| '-Needed: Sky ability |
| '-A Hint: "How scary! I hope you like heights..." |
| '-Locate: Korua Island, on the eastern coast of Outer Continent |
| '-Reward: 21 Amethyst + 16 Garnet + 1 Genji Armor + 1 Ragnarok |
| |
| [OUTER ISLAND 2] |
| '-Dig Up: Disc 3 [Chocobo's Lagoon, after getting Ocean ability] |
| '-A Hint: " |
| '-Locate: Likanmack Island, on eastern coast of Outer Continent |
| '-Reward: 11 Sapphire + 1 Circlet + 1 Pumice Piece + 1 Hilda Garde 3 Card|
| |
| [FAIRY ISLAND] |
| '-A Hint: "Try going places you couldn't reach before, kupo!" |
| '-Locate: Vile Island, the large isle southwest of Outer Continent |
| '-Reward: 33 Potion + 15 Annoyntment + 1 Holy Miter + 1 Dark Matter Card |
| |
| [FORGOTTEN ISLAND] |
| '-A Hint: "You've come this far! You can figure it out, kupo!" |
| '-Locate: Pilkiras Island, nestled north of the Forgotten Continent |
| '-Reward: 1 Ribbon + 1 Rebirth Ring + 13 Amethyst + 1 Ark Card |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o--------------------o
| Chocobo's Paradise |
o--------------------o------------------------------------------------------o
| Once you've got a gold chocobo that can take off/land in forested areas, |
| fly to the upper-left corner of the world map to find a lone island. Land |
| and use a Dead Pepper on the crack to enter this heaven-sent place. Make |
| your way up to the second level where Fat Chocobo is, watch a few scenes, |
| and leave again (although the other chocos give hints to crack locations).|
| After you've dug up all chocographs, the choco on Fatty's lefthand side |
| will max out your Dead Peppers amount so you can find mountain cracks. =p |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o----------------------o
| Chocobo's Air Garden |
o----------------------o----------------------------------------------------o
| With the flight ability available, you can enter this place. All of the |
| six chocograph pieces hint at a location this airborne station may be; a |
| shadow is all you'll see of it from the ground. However, when you do find |
| that weird shadow, use a Dead Pepper underneath it to skyrocket up. There |
| is a whole new place to dig up the rest of the chocographs (digging power |
| is cut by two-thirds): |
| |
| * Outer Island * Fairy Island * Forgotten Island |
| |
| There's also the secret Ozma optional boss here, but it's got a section |
| already dedicated to it [LINK: OZM1]. That's all for Chocobo Hot & Cold! |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
o-------------------------o
| KNIGHT HOUSE FIGHT CLUB |
o-------------------------o-------------------------------------------------o
| There's an Amdusias up for slaughter this time [HP: ~6500]. It's Aerial |
| type, so Bird Killer works well...although there's really no reason to be |
| fair when you don't get EXP/AP/Drops, yeah? It uses Bio mainly and has a |
| Horn attack (physical damage), but can be slapped with Darkness, Silence, |
| and Poison -- tent trick, anyone? My favorite is slinging the Sargatanas' |
| petrify effect through Soul Blade, instantly winning the battle. The item |
| this time is the superlative [RUNNING SHOES] item! If you don't want to |
| do this now, I'll remind you when the time's almost up on getting it... |

The last town to uncover on the world map is this watery one, found on the
largest island (Sacrobless) south of the Forgotten Continent, with access
only by airship.
Just inside, on the right part of the canals, find the [CAPRICORN] coin for
Queen Stella, and exit nearby. There's a four-armed man nearby who's part of
a sidequest himself [LINK: RNKG], but the real draw here is the great synth
shop that's going on [LINK: SH47]. What's great is that the shop not only has
a huge selection of top-notch equipment, but you can synthesize gemstones for
the two summoners. In case you've forgotten, summons increase in power
according with their gemstone's type (i.e. Shiva powers up with more Opals),
so this is a great boon. Go to the left from the synth shop balcony.
There's a huge reading room here. Look on the right balcony for a field icon
where Zidane reads some books; then, talk to the schlar on the lefthand side
of the room and he'll move out of the way. Past that bookcase he was looking
at is a ladder down to the second-floor balcony. There are two [ELIXIR]s on
opposite ends, here. That's all there is to do here...or is there?
* AQUAMARINE MAKER
Press the odd stone button in the third-floor balcony to make "something"
happen below. Return to the dragon fresco near the entrance and you'll be
able to turn Ore into Aquamarine at a 4:1 ratio. Just be careful, because
if you put in fewer than that, you'll lose the Ore from the inventory...
* WANNA NEW NAME?
After clearing out the scholar on the third-floor, look past the lefthand
bookshelf to find an entrance downward. A man on the second-floor balcony
will get be inspired by you if you have a Namingway Card in the inventory,
and will agree to change a character's name. This is helpful if you named
someone a dumb name (Gohorn is one I've seen) or if you just don't like
calling the princess 'Dagger.'
* FIX THE HYDROLIFT
The third-floor equipment salesman can't get wares without the hydrolift
on the first floor. But, there is a mechanic's solution to this! Enter the
left room where the Oracle Kildea is and find the mini-elevator liftswitch.
Hit the left lever a few times to reveal a hole; inspect it and then pick
up the long dowel leaning against a bookcase. The lift will now go up to
the third floor and the man's shop will be open [LINK: SH48] -- this guy's
got a crapload of good weapons for you. Disc 3 is the only time you'll be
able to buy the Steiner's Rune Blade or Freya's Obelisk! Iai Strike and
Cherry Blossom can be missed PERMANENTLY.
* AGREE OR DISAGREE?
By the item clerk [LINK: SH49], a man will be arguing with her. If you
talk to him, he'll present a case on some petty grievance and ask who you
side with. This'll go on for awhile, since you can ask him a few times. If
you agree with him the most, he'll give you a [FLARE CARD]; agree with the
clerk to get a [METEOR CARD]. You can only get one...

Word of advice: equip your worst weapons on the characters, since the weird
upside-down nature of this place makes them stronger while making others a
lot weaker. Although, Soul Blade + Sargatanas instantly petrifies monsters
and is a good substitute. Note that skills and magic do their regular dmg,
and you can find everyone's initial equip 'round here, too.
o--------------------o
o--------------------o------------------------------------------------------o
| Veteran -> Doom (inflicts a death sentence/Doom status on one target) |
o---------------------------------------------------------------------------o
When you enter, Amarant won't be selectable as a party member for awhile.
Organize the party and enter the first room. Get the [DAGGER] behind the left
pillars, and the [AQUARIUS] Stellazzio behind the right. Beyond is a large
courtyard with Kumool in it. Deliver his letter, check out his mogshop if ya
want [LINK: SH50] -- he /does/ have Vaccines, so it's not a complete waste.
Get the [CAT'S CLAWS] in the upper corner (visible) before sliding down the
pole, fireman-style.
Down in the upside-down part, take the nearby ladder to a balcony door. Take
a screen to find the hollow part of the castle, full of ladders and walkways.
Climb up and jump off to the right, leading to a [BROADSWORD] chest; then
jump left off the ladder to find a [JAVELIN] chest. Descend the ladder fully
now and take the catwalk to a second. When prompted first, jump off to find
the [ROD] chest before exiting at the ladder's pinnacle.
The next room has an elevator and a fresco; investigate the latter first, in
this order (as the commands appear):
Examine -> Push -> Pound -> Think -> Push -> Pound -> Try Something Drastic
Choose to 'Rest' after and the door will open -- kind of plays to the nature
of this backwards place, huh? This opens up a passage to the first room's
balcony with a [BARETTE] on it. Go back and take the elevator; if you don't
have a mage in the party, make sure to equip better weapons since skills'll
do more damage!
Up the elevator, inspect the mural's four seals and get the [WIND MIRROR],
[FIRE MIRROR], [WATER MIRROR], and [EARTH MIRROR]. There's a pathetic crony
of a boss to fight over these objects, though. So vain!

||_______________________________________________________________________||
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
First order of business is inflicting this 'tard with Silence, which'll
take out its main method of damage. Taharka is basically a two-trick
pony with two states. When 'compact', physical damage is decreased by a
lot and it can only use the Ram attack; when 'open' it uses magicks and
the Chop ability. So...uh, what's the problem here? Besides its HP, it
isn't so much of a trial. Gizamaluke gave you more bang for your buck!
You can inflict Slow, Poison, Power Break, Armor Break, and probably a
few more...as if you needed the help here. ^___^ -- Make sure to steal
that Orichalcon, though!
Backtrack to Kumool and an ally nearly falls through a trapdoor (all are now
active). Fall in the one nearby to land by a [MAIDEN PRAYER], then backtrack
to the first room. If you opened the fresco by the elevator, there'll now be
a stairway going up...and another 'hidden' stairway underneath it, which is a
bit of eye trickery. Going up it leads to a balcony in Kumool's room where a
chandalier is revealed above the pole -- the [FORK] and [MAGE STAFF] can now
be obtained by climbing that thing to its top. Back in the hidden stairway,
follow it to a 2nd elevator by an [AIR RACKET] chest; take the thing down.
There is a replica of a sword here, with two odd pots in front of it. Open
the [GOLEM'S FLUTE] and start moving the pots counterclockwise (a hint will
come up telling you to 'go against the flow of time' if you're going the
wrong way). If you do it right, the sword's power will drain and Zidane gets
an [ANCIENT AROMA] when he picks up the pot the power ciphoned into. Leave
this place.
Back at the castle's entrance to find that Amarant hasn't come back. Zidane
will go back (alone) to sniff the guy out of his hiding spot. Luckily, it's
just inside the place -- go down the pole near Kumool to find him moaning
somewhere. Check the foreground, get him back in the party, then leave once
again. This time, for good.
---
Zidane formulates a strategy to get into Terra, involving a four-way blitz

on all the shrines, at once...

EVENT: Four Shrines [WK37]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
While steering the airship, head south to the Water Shrine. Note that you'll
be taking on a boss with just Zidane and Quina soon, so make sure you're...
uh, properly aware of this fact. Here are the locations of the shrines:
* Water - south of Ipsen's Castle, in the large bay

* Fire - a smoking volcano in northern part of Lost Continent
* Wind - a windy canyon on Forgotten Continent's southeastern peninsula
* Earth - a large quaking plain southwest of eastern desert on Outer Cont.
If you're not big on using Quina, note that the ideal equipment for both of
the characters is that which can absorb earth and reflect magic -- so Gaia
Gear and the Reflect Ring's "Auto-Reflect" ability works well. You can buy
the former in Daguerreo, and Reflect Rings can be synthed at any such shop
that comes to memory. Remember that this 'drastic' setup is just if you're a
big Quina hater or something; if s/he knows Mighty Guard this shouldn't be
too hard. AT LEAST have Mighty Guard and White Wind, though -- that's the
least you can do for party upkeep. Bad Breath will make this a VERY VERY
easy fight, though!
---
Anyway, fly to the Triquai Plains in the "middleish" part of Outer Continent,
and enter via the airship. After some talky-talky scenes (press the action
button as Zidane's crew to jump the walls!), your two favorite allies'll
fight their biggest, baddest, braindead baddie!

Preparation makes this battle a ridiculous farce. Equip Gaia Gear to
absorb Earth Shake's damage, and teach Quina 'Bad Breath' to inflict a
cluster of nasty negative statuses (Slow, Darkness, Mini) -- the latter
robs Double Slash of its oomph. This sets up Zidane to steal the goodies
to his heart's content, and the pressure off Quina, who may be a largely
underleveled ally. Still, Twister works wonders and, in a rare set of
circumstances, the boss itself can be eaten to teach Earth Shake.
Everyone regroups and the destination is set: The Shimmering Island by Esto
Gaza. Once you go to Terra, however, you won't be able to come back on the
same disc -- there are quite a few places that WILL NOT be available, and
thus some sidequests that won't be available. They are:
• Observatory Mountain • North/South Gates (any)

• Oeilvert • Esto Gaza
• Desert Palace • Mt. Gulug
• Ice Cavern • Conde Petie
• Conde Petie Mountain Path • Fossil Roo
• Iifa Tree • Pinnacle Rocks
• Rare Coffee Sidequest [LINK: RCFF]
IN ADDITION: multiple weapons become unavailable once going to Terra, and

this can bar some characters from learning all their skills. They are:
• Mythril Sword -> Armor Break (Steiner)

• Rune Blade ----> Iai Strike (Steiner)
• Trident -------> Luna (Freya)
• Heavy Lance ---> Six Dragons (Freya)
• Obelisk -------> Cherry Blossom (Freya)
• Diamond Sword -> Power Break (Steiner)
• Flame Saber ---> Magic Break (Steiner)
• Black Hood ----> Death (Vivi)
• Hamelin -------> Jewel (Eiko)
• Octagon Rod ---> Firaga, Thundaga, Blizzaga (Vivi)
(If I forget any, tell me)
Oh, and you'll want to kill the Amdusias in Treno's equipment shop for a 2nd
pair of Running Shoes. Enter the Shimmering Island when ready (you'll be
prompted to stay the course) and enter...

After organizing the party, head down the hilltop. Take the left stairs down
to a fractured stepping-stone path, leading to a [CORONET]. Further up the
way is a [DRAGON WRIST]. Return to the main road.
Up the path, get the [ELIXIR] and follow the girl. When you get to some
ledges with spiderweb-like ladders, climb down twice for a [REMEDY]. Then,
climb back up and jump to the [MYTHRIL RACKET] chest. Climb down to where the
girl's standing and get a [DEMON'S VEST]. Continue following the girl to a
blue bridge spanning north.
You'll notice a chest tucked below a natural formation with no way to access,
seemingly. When you go up the first stair, keep running left and you can wind
down to the item, which is a [MINERVA'S PLATE].

NOTE: You will not have a chance to equip everyone before the next set of
boss fights, which are consecutive. Before entering town, try to mesh with
this setup the following -- yes, more than three people'll be involved.
Zidane - absorb earth, absorb thunder, Antibody

Dagger - absorb earth
Freya - Auto-Reflect, Antibody
Amarant - Auto-Reflect, Antibody
Quina - Absorb thunder
Steiner - Absorb thunder
If you can't absorb an element, try to nullify it; if you can't do that, try
to halve it. You'll thank me later.

Dagger will be out of the party temporarily (this is becoming a trend...), so

reformat the party to the new specs. That weird green light/door at the stair
top can't be opened currently, either -- we'll come back there later.
Descend to the left and take the hidden path 'neath the stairs, leading to a
[FLASH HAT]. Double-back two screens and take the northern door to find a
bunch of monkey-tails gazing at a crystalline object. There's a downward path
that leads to a lab where an [ELIXIR] can be found. Upstairs, exit SE to the
street and take the only door nearby. Open the [WING EDGE] chest and help
Moorock out of the wicker basket. Get the [LETTER: Moorock -> Mozme] and look
at the nice mogshop [LINK: SH51].

To continue with the story, enter the inn on the west end to let Dagger get
some shuteye. When Eiko tells Zidane about the girl who wants to meet him in
the laboratory nearby, re-enter the inn for the [ELIXIR] chest. Freya'll let
him rest, too. Outside the inn, make sure to get an [ANGEL EARRINGS] equip
by the waterfront (is that water?)
Enter the downstairs lab north of the inn to find the girl, then visit the
crystal room to make the POV switch to Eiko. You can watch the ATEs in order
and collect party members in the places shown, or you can simply go up to the
green light by the town entrance. Either way, find the strange girl beyond
the light to shift the scenes to Zidane...

The party setup is Zidane to begin with, but Freya and Amarant show up in
a bit to help. The tent trick/Sargatanas trick don't work here, either,
so I think it's immune to everything (confirmation?). Either way, all its
attacks affect one target, so if you can hold off until the comrades show
their faces, it's not too difficult. If Amarant's got Aura learned, this
ballgame's a whole lot easier.

Quina and Steiner'll start the battle, with Zidane joining after a couple
turns. Spam Mighty Guard when all three are in battle and use White Wind
after that. Steiner should just attack or use Darkside (hazard a risk if
you want) while Zidane attacks and throws Hi-Potions/Elixirs around when
needed. LV3 Def-Less works as well, although you'll generally not want to
waste a turn for that.

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Only Dagger shows up to help in this last battle, and since the monster
has an attack that can bring your HP to 1, put Zidane on the defensive
'til and heal until she arrives (this also makes sense since the dragon
can't be defeated until help comes). Once she's there, try to get Float on
the party to evade Earth Shake and have her spam Cura/ga on both targets
each turn; Zidane should attack and use his Trance if he's got one. This
may actually be the easiest of the three battles due to the white mage
involved. Use Elixirs if you want, 'cause if you die, you have to start
all the way back in Bran Bal. =(
Everyone rejoins at this point. Backtrack to the first room to obtain the
[HOLY MITER] at the throne, then save at Moorock who's still got his shop
in tow [LINK: SH51]. He'll also change your party members if you want. Buy
some VACCINES if you don't have any!!!! Save and proceed in a leftward/
westernly manner until you get to a room with some weird "buds" sticking out
of the ground and arranged in a matrix of sorts.
Hit the switch nearby to make them light up. The object is to get to the SW
corner and exit without standing adjacent to a blinking light, which not only
eats up the 0:30 timer you have but makes you fight a battle. I prefer to go
down the right side and cut across left to the exit, but there's no wrong way
to do it. Cross the bridge to find an...
...elevator mechanism! There are six customizable positions you can turn the
lift, which will be important in a second; they're even numbered! This allows
one to get some treasures, and if you keep messing up, there'll be an ATE
called 'The Elevator' that allows you to switch the thing without doubling
back to it. ^___^
---
If you set the switch to '3' and go up twice, there's a [20007 GIL] chest!
Set the switch to '4' and take the elevator up twice to a room with three
paths. Take the northeastern of the three to find a teleporter, leading
to the floor above. Take the leftmost blue teleporter to land by the awesome
[CARABINI MAIL]. The other blue teleporter (to the right) by where you came
in leads Zidane by an [ELIXIR]. Return to the elevator room below and take
the path SW on the screen, which'll lead back up to the maze above. At the
fork, take the SE offshoot to end by some [BATTLE BOOTS]; take the opposite
path to end up by Mozme. Deliver her letter and tent up. Now's a good chance
to eat a Marboro which teaches Quina the 'Bad Breath' ability (Mozme can
change party members, too). The next boss is heavy on wind-element attacks,
so equip equipment (Coronet is good) that gets rid of that damage. Also put
Locomotion on everyone, and thunder-nullifying/absorbing stuff, too. It's a
lot to ask, but it'll definitely help.
Skip up the slope to...

Inflict Darkness/Silence with your preferred method, which gets the half
of its attacks outta the way. I suggest having Eiko for this battle, as
she can heal AND use Might, which'll raise a target's attack power. Have
Steiner Stock Break/Shock, Dagger play healer, Amarant use Aura and No
Mercy, Freya Jump or slam that Dragon's Hair into Silvy (if you have it).
Vivi can do some Flares, which do more damage if bounced off Reflect
status, recall. It can be a little hard if you haven't guarded against
wind attacks; if you have, it's gravy -- just Cura every other round.
Definitely try to steal its Dragon Mail and Kaiser Knuckles, if you're
fancying 'em. Shockwave can set off 'Counter', too -- kinda funny...

||_______________________________________________________________________||
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
The first hard part here is that your HP values are the same as the fight
right before...
Oddly enough, Garland can be hit with Darkness/Silence which goes against
the usual mid-boss fare (:p), don't it? So slap him with the tent trick
before Stop/Flare become an almighty nuisance. Psychokinesis can miss a
bit more often if you hit him with darkness, and who doesn't wanna do
that? Wave is then the only big-hitter, and moving to the back row ain't
such a stupid strategy in this case. Eiko should sling Curaga/Madeen,
Quina should use Mighty Guard/1000 Needles, Steiner can use his best
sword skill, and Amarant should use Chakra/Aura on whoever's low on MP.
Dagger can summon but I don't believe it's got elemental weaknesses, and
Freya can use Jump or a powered-up Dragon's Crest -- whichever's good by
you. Zidane should of course steal his rarified equips if possible. HP
values will be the same in the next value, so keep 'em high!
Last and most certainly least...

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
His Flare Star attack (which does damage equal to an ally's LV*35) seems
to appear with astounding accuracy if you use Carbuncle to put Reflect
status on -- DO NOT DO THIS! Thundaga and Demi can of course be bounced
back his way, but I wouldn't chance it. He's got no physical attacks so
Shell works very well. Have Zidane attack/steal; Amarant can use Chakra
and Aura with No Mercy; Eiko can Curaga-all and use Might; Freya should
be a Jump-er or use powerful skills; Steiner should use his best skills;
Dagger should be a healer primarily; Quina should use Mighty Guard and
White Wind. When you damage him enough, he unleashes Ultima and ends the
battle.
Some scenes later, after Dagger joins Zidane, run down the path towards the
castle's exit to arrive back in Bran Bal. A few more dialogue scenes and
we're shootin' out of this mushroom kingdom like a cannonball!

_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
After some scenes, the party will be able to use the Invincible as their own
airship, which navigates the same way as before. It can also land on any type
of normal terrain (i.e. not forests, mountains, etc.). Now, before you go to
the Iifa Tree, there's a BUNCH of stuff you can still do to give yourself an
edge. Skip it if you don't care, but read on if you want endgame sidequests.
o----------------o
| UPGRADED SHOPS |
o----------------o
Black Mage Village (Weapons) -----> [SH52]

Black Mage Village (Synth Shop) --> [SH53]
Black Mage Village (Item Shop) ---> [SH54]
Daguerreo (Weapons) --------------> [SH55]
o---------------------o
| EXCALIBUR SIDEQUEST |
o---------------------o
Now that it's disc four, you can get one of Steiner's swords (third-best)
that teaches the Climhazzard skill. Here's what you do:
* Jetset to Daguerreo and talk to the old man by the third-floor inn. He
talks about wanting to see a "Magical Fingertip" item before he dies, and
will give you something good in return.
* Go to Treno and buy Une's Mirror, Doga's Artifact, Rat Tail, and Griffin's
Heart. Sell them to the fat nobleman (by synth shop entrance), adventurer
(by synth shop entrance), or scholar (in synth shop) for a profit, if you
hold out.
* The Magical Fingertip should now be available in the auction. Expect to

pay about 55,000g for the thing.
* Take it to that old man and redeem it for an [EXCALIBUR]! Naturally, it

isn't as good as the Ragnarok you get in the Chocobo Hot & Cold sidequest,
but it's a lot easier to get.
o----------------------------o
| STELLAZZIO COIN-COLLECTIN' |
o----------------------------o
Now that it's disc four, this quest can finally be brought to a close. Find
all the coins, first:
• Leo ---------> At Alex. Castle's Neptune Statue room, in a corner

• Aries -------> In Dali's windmill, ground floor, behind crankshaft
• Libra -------> At Madain Sari's fountain plaza, by fountain
• Virgo -------> At Black Mage Village, the inn bedroom
• Cancer ------> In Burmecia's second screen, look behind a toppled wagon
• [PISCES] ----> Aboard the Invincible, in a chest
• Gemini ------> In Treno's entrance, throw 10g into the fountain 13 times
• Taurus ------> In Treno's slum district, behind the item shop's stand
• Scorpio -----> In Quan's Dwelling, search the cliffs down by the springs
• Aquarius ----> First screen in Ipsen's Castle proper, by the right pillars
• Capricorn ---> In Daguerreo's entrance, check the righthand canal dead end
• Sagittarius -> In Lindblum's B. District plaza, check left by big machine
After delivering all twelve coins [See 'STZC' for prize renewal], talk to
Queen Stella again and confirm her fears that there's a thirteenth coin. She
will hand over the twelve you've given her and bid you to find the last. I
have no idea how the story is supposed to clue the player to the destination,
but to find the [OPHIUCHUS] Stellazzio, return to Quan's Dwelling. Inspect by
the hot spring where the Scorpio was to get it. Haul all the stuff back to
Queenie to get the [HAMMER] as your final reward.
o--------------------------o
| ZIDANE'S ULTIMATE WEAPON |
o--------------------------o
Take an Ocean chocobo (or better) to where the Shimmering Island used to be,
and use a Dead Pepper in its middle. You should bring up to the surface 10
Aquamarine, 1 Ultima Weapon, 1 Maximillian, and 1 Invincible Card!
o---------------------o
| BEACHCOMBER RESTORE |
o---------------------o
After finding all chocographs, digging up all mountain-crack treasures and

digging up all underwater treasures (including Ultima Weapon), return to
Chocobo's Paradise. Talk to Fat Chocobo and receive a [FAT CHOCOBO CARD],
and after some funny scenes with Mene, go back and challenge fatty to a card
game. He'll talk about visiting the world's beaches and how he'll restore
everyone if they visit 'em all. See the 'BCHC' section on how to do this.
o-------------------------o
| KNIGHT HOUSE FIGHT CLUB |
o-------------------------o
This time around in Treno's equipment shop, there's a Behemoth to be had.

The easy way out is to just use Sargatanas with the Soul Blade ability and
petrify the dang thing -- it DOES have the ability to counter with Meteor,
after all. For winning you obtain a [CIRCLET]!
o------------------------o
| THANKS FOR EVERYTHING! |
o------------------------o
After much traveling, Stiltzkin will finally return to Alexandria's church

and stay. Buy his last Moonstone/Ruby/Elixir package for 5555g and talk to
him again. You _should_ get a [RIBBON] if you've bought everything at every
point; I'm not sure what the lesser rewards are.
o------------------------o
| HELPIN' MOGNET CENTRAL |
o------------------------o
An ocean chocobo's needed to finish this, by the way.
You'll have noticed that this delivery organization has been in a big slump
recently, to such a degree that no one's really giving you anything to take
around. But, where is this place? It's actually on that talon-shaped island
north of the Outer Continent...but that doesn't matter at the moment. Fly
to Alexandria and talk to Kupo to start up a chain delivery system. Here's
how to do it:
01) Kupo in Alexandia ------------> Atla in Burmecia

02) Atla in Burmecia -------------> Mogryo in Black Mage Village
03) Mogryo in Black Mage Village -> Kumool in Ipsen's Castle
04) Kumool in Ipsen's Castle -----> Mois at Fossil Roo Entrance
05) Mois at Fossil Roo Entrance --> Noggy at Daguerreo
06) Noggy at Daguerreo -----------> Kupo in Alexandria
NOTE: Mois will be down by the lower Ice Cavern entrance on Disc 3, if you
are doing it then! Also, you need Quina in your party to find him at
the Fossil Roo Entrance, for obvious reasons.
Deliver Kupo's letter to learn that "Superslick" is needed to fix the Mognet
Central machine, and that someone in Alexandria's got it! Talk to Ruby to
get the key item [SUPERSLICK]. Now that you have it, take your ocean choco
to that talon-shaped island I mentioned above and use a Dead Pepper to open
the crack there. Talk to Artemecion and give him the stuff; everything'll be
made right again! A [PROTECT RING] is the final reward!
o---------o
| OZMANIA |

The game's super-hard murdering tool of a boss can be fought, now, or rather
has been available ever since Chocobo's Air Garden was opened (if at all).
Refer to the 'OZM1' section or th' details.

If you have wind-absorbant equipment like Ribbons, don't inflict silence
on it; if you just have nullify-types, do whatever. Zidane should steal
that armor, Amarant uses No Mercy/Aura, Steiner uses Shock/etc., Eiko
uses Curaga-all for the most part, Freya should use Jump/Lancer, and Vivi
can use Flare. Dagger functions in the same way as Eiko, pretty much, and
Quina can use his/her best magicks. Try to steal that armor which is a
lot better than synthing it. Anyone with a Ribbon equipped will absorb
its wind/water attacks, which makes this fun, indeed. It's also able to be
put to Sleep, so if Ziddy's got his Ultima Weapon, just use Soul Blade to
buy some stealing time.
After some dialogue, organize the party and enter the first room in the odd
castle. There is a spot on the floor where Zidane can warp back to the ship,
and a weird orb-shaped thing that lets him tent, save, or change allies. The
exit is in the back, but if you hug the right wall, you'll find an offscreen
spot with the place's first treasure: a [KAIN'S LANCE].
The path to follow is straightforward through this entire place, so I'll cut
the crap and talk about landmarks. Two screens down, in the placed marked as
"Recollection," find [THE TOWER] weapon for Zidane near the exit. There's a
small terrace and in the SE corner of this tiny offshoot's the weapon. It'll
inflict Mini with Soul Blade, which is always useful.

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Remember this snake-face from the Four Shrines expedition? S/he's back
for more punishment. Zidane should steal that Genji Armor (one of two in
the game), Steiner flings Shock/Climhazzard, Amarant uses No Mercy and
Aura, and Eiko uses Curaga when the time is right (Dagger functions in
the same vein). Quina can use Mighty Guard, Freya Jump/Lancer with her
best weapon, and Vivi uses his normal Flare routine. Two things I'll
mention here. One, steal that Masamune if you're a collector, because
Zorlin Shapes -- an item used in manufacturing them -- isn't sold at the
world's shops any longer. Two, keep your HP high towards the end of the
fight because it will have a "death-counter," meaning once it dies, it
cues the Raining Swords attack to do 900-2000 dmg to everyone. Luckily,
it's the snake's only affect-all attack and if you use Aura on everyone,
there's nothing to worry about. Far as I know, it's only susceptible to
Slow (thanks Ragnarok!) and Power Break.
In the room beyond (called "The Past), watch the scene and then inspect the
tiny platform in front of the broken castle to find a save point and also
Eiko's [ANGEL FLUTE] -- this teaches her Holy! Tent up and save, then proceed
on. Past the room with all the rain is a long stairway leading up to an eye
replica of the Invincible. Before you ascend, search the left part of the
stairbottom for Amarant's ultimate weapon, the [RUNE CLAWS]. Keep any of that
fire-protection stuff on, too, but also guard against Wind (Ribbon/Coronet)
to be on the safe side. Body Temp is necessary as well. Seize the stairtop!

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
If lowering the magic/strength values isn't enough, this windbag lifts the
'Snort' ability right off the Yans' repertoire (although this is a counter
if someone attacks while in Float status). Zidane should try to steal that
Helmet, Steiner uses Shock/Climhazzard, Quina uses Mighty Guard/whatever,
Amarant uses No Mercy/Aura/Chakra, the latter when MP gets drained (goes
good with 'Power Up' ability). Vivi Flare-s like normal and Freya can Jump
or use Lancer. Eiko and Garnet, in this case, should wait for Tiamat to
use its turn in order to better deal with party upkeep...which isn't too
hard since it usually does its 'Absorb' abilities 3 turns back-to-back.
As long as the elemental side of the battle's taken care of, Tiamat's not
too hard -- he may not even Snort anyone! It's susceptible to Silence,
Sleep, and Slow, too, if that matters to you. Silent Claw did 9999 (non-
critical) to Zidane, so that is the main skill to watch out for -- counter
with Life, Revive, or Full-Life, naturally.
Four screens down, there's a save point with the regular options. Enter the
ocean room beyond -- there's an optional boss here, behind the right-hand
side's rock formation. There is no "(?)" field icon that tells it's there;
you have to mash the X-button to find it. Refer to the 'HDSY' section for
information on the master synthesist and his shop [LINK: SH53]. Beyond the
room, up the stairs the next fatso boss waits to eat the peoplez! Equip any
water-absorbing/nullifying equipment before jumping into its arms.

||_______________________________________________________________________||
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
This is a boss with two minions...its tentacles (~20,000 HP). They carry
an Elixir each and suck themselves, but killing them eliminates the Ink
and Water-gun abilities from use. Either way, this is the lamest of the
four 'Chaos' bosses you fight. Have Zidane steal that Genji Helm if you
want it, Eiko/Dagger use Curaga-all to heal, Amarant careen No Mercy and
Aura around, Steiner use Shock, Freya Jump/Lancer/Dragon's Crest, Quina
use Mighty Guard, and Vivi Flare the thing into oblivion. It's only able
to be slapped with Slow apparently, but if you've got any kind of water-
-nullifying or -absorbing equipment (Ribbon!) this is a cakewalk to whet
any appetite. The only way I see this battle becoming a problem is if a
character has 'Return Magic,' in which case Waterga heals Kraken a lot.
The room beyond is called "Time Warp," and there's a hidden save point by the
stairbottom balcony. Head out the door to enter the "Gaia's Birth" screen.
Climb up the ladder to the first platform and search it for a [MACE OF ZEUS]
stave for Vivi (teaches Doomsday). Before continuing, make sure:
* No one's level is divisible by 5 (i.e. 25, 35, 40)

* Everyone has Antibody on
* Everyone has Locomotion on
* The main party's got earth-elemental protection (Circlets recommended)
That's about all you can do. Up the second ladder leads to ol Dead Gaze...

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Amarant works well here, due to Aura's low-cost Auto-Life ability. Hand
that out to everyone while Zidane steals those gloves (unique!) and Eiko
or Dagger uses Curaga when needed. If you listened to me earlier, five
of its eight attacks will be useless, giving you plenty of time to swing
your swords around. Have Steiner use Shock/Climhazzard, Freya Jump and/or
use her best skill, Vivi use Flare (NOT DOOMSDAY), and Quina erect a nice
Mighty Guard. I have to say it mostly relies on Earth Shake/Earthquake so
the above advice fits in perfectly. Eiko can also cast Might to a great
effect, particularly in making Steiner's lesser sword skills rise above
9000 damage -- just make sure to have her on standby with Full-Life or
Curaga! Lich is also only susceptible to Slow, which should help a bit.
The doorway to space looms ahead, but you can save at a hidden spot to the
left of the door. This is also where you pick up the Excalibur II if you're
doing that quest...
Note that once you enter the door, you won't be able to get back to where
you've been (i.e. entire dungeon) without having to restart the level over
again. Go back and save, synth, etc. for the last dungeon!

'Meteor Counter' can't be used! Said monster and Stilvas only appear in the
"To the Origin" space location, though.

Anyway, walk in the expanse of space (just move forward) and Zidane will
come to a light that teleports him to the crystal world proper. The fourth
screen down will have a save point, except this one has all the previous
options + 'Teleport' (teleport to first save point, one-way-only). Save and
tent if you want to and enter the warp nearby. Time to shake hands with this

When in 'Open' mode, it'll use its regular physical-type attacks; when
in 'Closed' mode, it'll use its nasty spells like Death, Twister, etc.
Have Steiner use Shock/Climhazzard, Zidane attack and steal, Eiko use
Curaga/Full-Life/Holy, Dagger be everyone's nurse, Vivi use Flare, and
Quina use Mighty Guard. Freya can Jump/Dragon's Crest like usual, while
Amarant gets to spread Aura around and use No Mercy when available. This
is actually a simple battle of sorts, but sometimes it leads off with
Meteor and can kill/heavily damage everyone at once. If this happens, I
suggest resetting until the first round goes in your favor. You can hit
it with Slow, but that's about all there is for Doomga-...Deathguise. ;)
As soon as the battle is done, YOU CAN GO BACK AND SAVE! Just don't proceed
towards Kuja. Tent, save, and equip your best element-reducing equipment
(Protect Ring, Ribbon, Gauntlets, Defense Gloves, etc.) for the road ahead.
Jump back through the warp when ready and get ready to square-dance with...

Amarant should get to work with Aura'ing everyone, then start using the
No Mercy schtick; Steiner should be Shock-ing like crazy. Eiko should be
doing Curaga-all just about every turn, and if she finds an opening, a
Shell spell ain't so bad. Zidane can steal if he wants, but damaging is
a bit more important. Flare Star is just as nasty as before, and gets to
see a lot more use if you cast Reflect on everyone -- don't! Quina needs
to break out Mighty Guard if s/he's with, and Freya should Jump to avoid
most damage, or use Dragon's Crest if it's maxed-out. Vivi's the Flare
master again, and Dagger's just the Curaga-all person. Should Kuja give
himself Reflect status, dispel it so he doesn't gain inflict more damage
by bouncing 'em off himself. Basically, a party past Lv. 50 should have
more than enough HP to withstand any attack -- Flare Star's the most
damaging, and is tolerant...and can even miss! Just make sure Eiko knows
the attack and adapts to it!
Afterwards, you can choose your party again and view the menu (take off
any useless ability -- Alert, Master Thief, etc. -- and put stones into
status protection and/or 'Restore HP'). Then, it's off to a final showdown
with...wait, what's this boss doing here? Surprise intervention's right
down the hall, buddy...

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Whatever party you have, the basic setup's like so: have someone on standby
to use an Elixir/Curaga whenever Blue Shockwave comes about, and be ready
to Curaga-all Neutron Ring; thus, why there's item healers -- don't let
those Elixirs go to waste! But, the main attraction is 'Grand Cross', right
out of previous FF fame. It inflicts multiple status effects one everyone,
and can really be a killer...not just because it's heinous, but because any
person who gets zombified has to have a Magic Tag used on them before they
are able to be revived! It is slightly unfair, to say the least. Of course,
which ones you get hit with is up to chance and no one gets hit with all at
once -- cope with Remedies, Esuna and Angel's Snack if you have it. Here's
the oversimplified breakdown:
• Zidane - attack, use Trance, steal Elixirs for use

• Steiner - Use Shock/Climhazzard, Item heal if necessary
• Amarant - Use Aura/No Mercy/Chakra, Item heal if necessary
• Eiko - Use Curaga-all, Esuna, Holy, Phoenix, Dispel
• Quina - Mighty Guard, Angel's Snack (<----AWESOME here), Magic Hammer
• Dagger - Curaga-all
• Vivi - Flare, Flare, Flare!
• Freya - Dragon's Crest, Jump, Lancer
Also note that if you have a Dark Matter, that can inflict 9999 damage to
the boss as well. Of course, any Trances are welcome. The main obstacle is
getting around Grand Cross and overcoming the turns afterwards, which can
be a bind if you get a Neutron Ring or affect-all elemental attack. Attempt
to get back on track, cure Zombified characters immediately, and Curaga-all
when possible. Don't forget that if you've got Phoenix learned, there's a
chance, albeit sorta slim, that Rebirth Flame occurs after the party gets
annihilated and revives everyone. Don't count on it, but it's happened to
me before -- lifesaver! It really doesn't matter who lives or dies at the
end of the battle, since no EXP is awarded and there's no more bosses that
pop out of nowhere to fight you.
Enjoy the incredibly sweet ending scenes, 'cause you sure as heck earned 'em!

A jump-rope minigame can be played in Alexandria at a few separate times:
1) Disc 1 - In the town square, before going to see the Tantalus play
2) Disc 3+ - In the town church
Note that only Vivi and Eiko can play this, so if they're not in the party,
the minigame can't be started. If they are in the party, talk to the middle
girl to begin. A "(!)" icon will come up -- press it as fast as you can so
that the cycle keeps going. Prizes are awarded for consecutive jumps.
.------.-------------------.
| JUMP | REWARD | I've no real strategies here, since this is
|------+-------------------| more of a "human metronome" thing than full
| 20 | 10 Gil | of strategy. Keeping time is crucial, and the
| 50 | Cactuar Card | time eventually speeds up (~200 jumps?) so it
| 100 | Genji Card | isn't for everyone. If anyone has some good
| 200 | Alexandria Card | tips or corrections here, do tell -- I'd love
| 300 | Tiger Racket Card | to hear 'em.
| 1000 | King of Jump Rope |
'------'-------------------' TheHornGod Writes in the following tip:
"Hey man, I love your faqs and I have a tip to submit to your faqs for jump
roping.
Basically, its all a musician's thing. It helped me get the king of jump
rope just by this. I would think of this whole mini-game as a piece of
music. Each jump would count as a beat. Doing this is 4/4 time signature is
basically the easiest way. Unless you do 12/8 which would be even more fun!
(I've experimented. I'm a music education major. Ahahaha) I would subdivide
each beat in either 8th notes or 16th notes. (So 2 or 4 counts per beat.)
It helps with the timing because when you subdivide, you are 100X more
accurate because you are counting more per beat, rather than 1 time.
Experiment on subdividing: Our Wind Ensemble did an experiment on

subdivisions. Basically, our conductor conducted a simple 4/4 beat pattern
and told us to just watch him and after 20 beats, to clap. Without
subdivision, our claps were very very sporadic. Then he told us to close
our eyes as he counted us in verbally. Our claps were even more out of time
and sync. Then he told us to subdivide 8th notes, then 16th notes then 32nd
notes. With each larger subdivision, our claps got more in sync. And after
the 32nd subdivisions, we clapped all at the same time, WITH OUR EYES
CLOSED! So this really works wonders. And keeping the human metronome thing
really works. Because after all, metronomes are NEVER wrong with beats.
But of course the beats change in FFIX. As it gets faster, you must get
faster in your subdivisions."
Hope that helps y'keep the beats.

'----------------'
After control first goes to Steiner, he'll find that most of his knights are
off gallavanting and doing things generally unbecoming of their positions.
But the princess is missing, and they must be sent out searching. Here're all
the locations:
[LAUDO]
Laudo's in the castle library. Talk to him, pick either option, and he'll run
away. Exit the room and then come right back in. Laudo's still here, and now
hides behind a bookshelf (blindspot). Use the action button to find him once
again and this sends him off looking for good.
[KOHEL]
Kohel is shooting the breeze with Blutzen in the guardhouse. Talk to either
of them to send both out searching.
[BLUTZEN]
Blutzen is in the guardhouse, talking to Kohel. After Steiner tells them to

get changed, enter the guardhouse and talk to 'em again to kick them out onto
the beat.
[DOJEBON]
Dojebon is that speedy knight running around the castle's twin-stair balcony.
When Steiner tries to talk to him, he often runs the exact opposite way, and
this goes for any part of the stair. Wait for him to exit one of the doors,
then wait to see which door he heads to. Rush to him at this point and talk
to him -- turns out he's already looking! You still need to do this, though,
if you want the reward.
[BREIREICHT]
This oldie is climbing the western tower's stairway. Talk to him twice and
he'll countdown all the knights currently looking. He'll give Steiner the
reward if everyone's out looking.
[MULLENKEDHEIM]
The hungriest cannoneer in the knights is found in the east wing dining room.
Talking to him once is sufficient in spreading the word, even if he doesn't

RAGTIME MOUSE'S TRUE AND FALSE [RGTM]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
The Ragtimer is a friendly 'monster' that shows up in forests and challenges

the player to answer questions, almost in game-show format. To answer, the
player hits the 'O' or 'X' creatures that accompany it, standing for true and
false respectively, to answer. Here are its appearances per disc:
Disc 1 = 4
Disc 2 = 6 [Thanks to Rebirth Flame for these figures!]
Disc 3/4 = 7
So that's seventeen in all. One 'trick' to making the ragtimer show up with
a high probability is to walk in the forest and once it's found, move in
the same spot by flicking the analog stick (although it works better with
the D-pad). If you do it right, the moving leaves animation won't happen.
Of course, this is slow going for the most part, but it sure beats trial
and error -- it DOES work very, very well. If someone knows who found this
'trick,' e-mail me so I can credit 'em.
---
Here are the questions and answers, although the question order may differ.
01) The 15th Lindblum War started in 1600 -----------------------> False

02) "I Want to Be Your Canary" was written by Lord Afon ---------> False
03) The theater ship Prima Vista was built in Artania Shipyards -> False
04) Chocobo Forest is located between Lindblum and South Gate ---> True
05) Some Mus are friendly and won't attack ----------------------> True
06) Berkmea Cable Cars have been running for 8 years ------------> True
07) The theater ship Prima Vista uses Mist as its energy --------> True
08) Lindblum Castle is larger than Alexandria Castle ------------> True
09) Lindblum's air cabs operate around the clock ----------------> True
10) Fossil Roo is an underground tunnel that connects Treno and -> False
Alexandria
11) Prima Vista means 'love at first sight' ---------------------> False
12) The Bobo bird is a bird that brings you fortune -------------> False
13) Only one desert exists in the entire world ------------------> False
14) Treno's cafe, Cafe Carta, is members-only -------------------> True
15) Conde Petie is a village of Goblins -------------------------> False
16) You can defeat Ragtimer -------------------------------------> True
Once you've gone through sixteen questions, encounter the Ragtime Mouse
a seventeenth and last time. When it appears, the X and O monsters will
be defeated and he'll give out the prizes. If you got at least thirteen,
correct, Ragtimer will die (LOL?), and you will be awarded a [PROTECT RING]
as well as 5963 EXP and 59630g. That ends the test.

RARE COFFEE [RCFF]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
The person who lives at the base of Observatory Mountain near Dali, Morrid,
will say he'll trade his mini Prima Vista model to Zidane if the three rare
coffee beans he's always wanted to try are given to him. This sidequest can
only be finished starting on disc three, but cannot be finished at all if
you haven't handed them over to Morrid by disc four. Their locations:
[BURMAN]
On Disc 3, before the card tournament in Treno's finished, return to Dali
as Zidane. Enter the mayor's house to find he's absent, but that sleeping
kid is still here...and will wake up. Search a nearby part (like the shelf)
a few times to make sure the kid's sound asleep and search the 'Heater' to
find the Mayor's Key (key item). This unlocks the windmill's backdoor, and
leads to where the chocobo now is. Open the 30,000g chest and check it once
more to get the coffee.
[KIRMAN]
This can be found initially on Disc 2, in Eiko's kitchen.
[MOCCHA]
This delicious bag of coffee is found at the South Gate, near the Chocobo's
Forest. Look near the freshwater spring to find it. You do NOT have to view
the 'Baku and His Crew' ATE to get this. This cannot be obtained on Disc 4.
---
The item in question isn't an actual thing that goes into the inventory, but
a little 'figurine' that appears in Tantalus' hideout, in the Lindblum Theater
District.

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Stellazzio coins are key items one can find around the world and trade in to
an old bird (literally!) in Treno. This sidequest is very beneficial and can
give some excellent items/equipment, as well as provide the infamous "Hammer"
item used in making the best armor in the game. To boot, this can be done at
any time, on any disc -- nothing is missable! Here are the locations you can
get them (in order):
* Aries -------> In Dali's windmill, ground floor, behind crankshaft

* Cancer ------> In Burmecia's second screen, look behind a toppled wagon
* Gemini ------> In Treno's entrance, throw 10g into the fountain 13 times
* Taurus ------> In Treno's slum district, behind the item shop's stand
* Scorpio -----> In Quan's Dwelling, search the cliffs down by the springs
* Virgo -------> At Black Mage Village, the inn bedroom
* Libra -------> At Madain Sari's fountain plaza, by fountain
* Leo ---------> At Alex. Castle's Neptune Statue room, in a corner
* Sagittarius -> In Lindblum's B. District plaza, check left by big machine
* Capricorn ---> In Daguerreo's entrance, check the righthand canal dead end
* Aquarius ----> First screen in Ipsen's Castle proper, by the right pillars
* Pisces ------> Aboard the Invincible, in a chest

This is a section dedicated all to Quina's Blue Magic! Here is the monsters
that can be gobbled up to learn abilities. If you want to see what all the
abilities do, check out his/her skill overview in the [CHRC] section. Most
of this stuff's going off notes I wrote, like, in 2002, so if there's any
rare baddie I forgot, make sure to drop me a line! Regardless, the monsters
to snack on are listed in order of first appearance, not necessarily with
Quina in the party at the time.
Oh, and if ya want exact locations, I can do that -- it's just that I'll
have to point out where they are anyway, so I'm cuttin' out the useless

CHOCOBO HOT & COLD / CHOCOGRAPHS [CCHC]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
First accessible immediately after the events in Lindblum, this fun sidequest
is strung across all (4) discs, and seeing it through lets one fight the
optional boss, Ozma. Of course, that ain't the main draw -- there are tons of
items to dig up in 'chocographs', and the birds provided monster-avoiding
transportation around the continents. Choco, the bird Zidane rides, can even
'level up' its abilities, eventually learning to fly! Yeah, it's awesome.
When you dig up a 'Stone With Patterns,' Mene explains that it's a chocograph
that tells where treasures are buried! Note that when Mene says that c'graphs
can't be dug up any longer, this doesn't apply to the chocograph pieces. The
locations are:
* Chocobo's Forest ------> Lindblum Territory, by South Gate

* Chocobo's Lagoon ------> Salvage Archipelago, in southern sea
* Chocobo's Air Garden --> Floating in the sky at six different locations.
###################
[LOCATION OVERVIEW]
###################
* FOREST -> normal digging power
'--> normal points/bonuses awarded
'--> normal time bonus (at 8 finds)
* LAGOON -> halved digging power

'--> double points/bonuses awarded
'--> halved time bonus (at 4 finds) w/o Ocean ability
'--> normal time bonus (at 8 finds) with Ocean ability
* GARDEN -> digging power at one-third normal

'--> Double points/bonuses awarded
'--> Normal time bonus (at 8 finds)
###########
[DIG POWER]
###########
Here's an equation I "figured" out myself, so it's probably wrong. Dunno.
Dig Power = (Beak Lv + x)/(y) <-- ROUND UP
x = 1-4 (+1 for every chocobo upgrade)

y = 1-3 (1 for forest; 2 for lagoon; 3 for air garden)
#########
[BONUSES]
#########
* Special bonus for Chocograph/Pieces -----------------> +5 Pts

* Dig up 8 items within time limit + extensions -------> Limit Bonus
* Dig up 2 items within first 5 seconds of each other -> +5 Pts
* Find four items in a minute -------------------------> +10 Seconds
Double pts.

QU'S MARSH FROG-CATCHING [QMFC]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Around the world, there are "Qu's Marshes" that, not surprisingly, all have a
frog pond. Only one is accessible at first, but eventually, Quina will get to
take a dip in all of 'em. First, a few basics about ponds:
* All frogs are worth 1 point.

* Ponds all have frogs to catch!
* Frogs can either be male or female
* Golden frogs (unisex) increase population regrowth
* A population grows faster when a male and female are left in
* A population grows faster when a male/female is already an adult
* Capturing a frog reduces the population and thus the respawn rate
* Time must be spent IN-GAME (shutting off doesn't work) to respawn frogs
* If Quina is not in the current party, frog-catching cannot be performed
* After getting a certain number of captures, Quale will give Quina a prize
Note that the regrowth rates for the golden frogs are often negligible and
if you plan on continuing with the game before returning to the ponds, they
probably won't be noticed (as opposed to leaving the quest to endgame and
trying to do the sidequest in one go). Here is a list of all Qu's Marshes:
Qu's Marsh #1 - Lindblum territory, lower marshland

Qu's Marsh #2 - Outer Continent, in about the middle portion by choco tracks
Qu's Marsh #3 - Forgotten Continent, on the northern part of the peninsula
Qu's Marsh #4 - Lanar Island, southern sea, NW of Daguerreo (tear-shaped)
And as far as catching frogs for prizes...
## PRIZE
¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯
02 ~ Ore
05 ~ Ether
09 ~ Silk Robe
15 ~ Elixir
23 ~ Silver Fork
33 ~ Bistro Fork
45 ~ Battle Boots
99 ~ Gastro Fork
Save before catching the ninety-ninth frog, though -- you'll have to fight
your master to obtain Quina's ultimate weapon... Here's how to prepare.
* Water-absorbant/-nullifying equipment (Ribbon works well here)

* Angel's Snack ability (can cure Mini on everyone)
* Someone with the Mini ability (for curing Mini)
* Clear Headed (confuseproof)
* Bright Eyes (darknessproof)
* Loudmouth (silenceproof)
* Master Thief (optional)

This frogface has the most HP in the game, but unfortunately doesn't have
a lot of MP to match it. Thus, using Magic Hammer over and over will make
his reservoir deplenish pretty easily (in about 6 turns). If you've got a
stiff-arm passive ability up for the status effects, this battle's far,
far easier -- those are his main method of attack. Rolling Attack is not
too shabby, though, and can probably do 2000+ to front-row fighters. And,
if his MP is drained, he won't be able to do any counters (i.e. counter
physical attacks w/ Confuse) -- and will get "No MP!" messages over and
over when his turn comes up! Take this time to erect Mighty Guard and
slam away, but only after stealing all that good equipment. I prefer an
Amarant/Eiko/Quina/Zidane party, since Amarant can use powered-up Chakra
attacks (if you have Power Up ability) and keep the MP supply going with
ease; and, Eiko can use Might to power up any physical attacks or use
Phoenix to revive everyone. Quale is only susceptible to Slow as far as I
know, but if Steiner's along, he might be able to pull off some "Break"
abilities.
After defeating the master, Quale forks over (no pun intended) the ultimate
weapon for Quina -- a [GASTRO FORK]!

MOGUTA THE KUPO NUT FIEND [KPNT]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
In Gizamaluke's Grotto, Moguta, one half of a newlywed couple, will reveal

his undying love for Kupo Nuts. This seems like nothing really, but as you
deliver mail, the moogles will give Kupo Nuts as thanks. You can then take
them back to Moguta for prizes/rewards. Some suck, although some aren't too
shabby.
[BASICS:]
* You can only have one Kupo Nut in your inventory at a time
* If you already have a Kupo Nut, you WILL NOT get a new one for a delivery
[REWARDS:]
* Rewards are randomized except for the one at start of each disc
* Randomized rewards are fairly mundane common items like Phoenix Pinions.
* If the player does not choose to do this sidequest, it affects NOTHING.
DISC 1 - Holy Bell (mandatory)

DISC 2 - Elixir
DISC 3 - Extension
DISC 4 - Aloha T-Shirt

'-Monster: Griffin
|
'-Attacks: White Wind (heal self)
| Aero (wind-elemental damage to one)
| Aera (wind-elemental damage to one)
|
'-Stratgy: Steiner is a good choice here. Equip him with the Blood Sword,
| for its HP-drain effect; the Gold Choker accessory, which has to
| be synthed but halves wind damage; and the Bird Killer ability,
| taught by the Bronze Armor and increases damage against the foe's
| type. Auto-Potion helps, too, but isn't imperative.

'-Reward : Tonberry Card
[DISC THREE]
|
'-Monster: Catoblepas

'-Attacks: Heave (physical damage on target)
| Devil's Bell (inflicts 'Petrify' on target)
| Earthquake (earth-elemental damage on target)
| Thundara (med. thunder-elem damage on target)
|
|
'-Stratgy: Equip the 'Jelly' and 'Beast Killer' abilities, and Feather Boots
| or Desert Boots if you want to reduce earth-type damage (E'quake
| isn't that good, really). The Coral Ring will help out immensely
| however, so definitely put that on your character. A stratagem:
| use the Angel Bless' confusion ability in conjunction with the
| Soul Blade ability to really make this match easy; it doesn't seem
| to use any of its skills besides Heave in this state!
|
'-Reward : 15000 Gil

|
'-Attacks: Horn (physical damage to one target)
| Bio (non-elem magic damage + % poison)
| LV4 Holy (holy damage to enemies with levels divisible by 4)
|
'-Stratgy: Equip Bird Killer since it's an Aerial type, and Auto-Reflect will
| help make Bio worthless (and poison it, too!). Alternatively, you
| can use the tent trick to inflict Silence/Darkness/Poison to get
| rid of ALL its attacks. Of course, if you've already bought Zidane

'-Monster: Behemoth
|
'-Attacks: Heave (physical damage to one)
| Strike (physical damage to one)
| Meteor Counter (counters with 'Meteor' magic)

HIPPAUL RACING [HPPL]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
This can only be done on the third disc, when the player is controlling Vivi
before going to Ruby's mini-theater. Go to the alley between the bar and the
town entrance to find Hippaul and his mother, who urges Vivi to race her son
so he can work off his fat physique. To do the race, the square and circle
buttons have to be alternated (i.e. press one, then the other, repeat) to
dash to the finish. It gets progressively harder with a normal controller,
but shouldn't be too hard if you've got a turbo controller. Losing races will
make Hippauls "level" go up (talk to him to check it) and when he reaches a
certain one, his mother will bestow a prize. Here are the prizes:
GOALS | PRIZE
-------+--------------------. As for how you should hold the controller, I
LVL 10 | Wyerd Card | suggest using two hands to press the two
LVL 20 | Carrion Worm Card | buttons. I also find I can perform better on
LVL 30 | Tantarian Card | how I press if I concentrate on the presses,
LVL 40 | Armstrong Card | rather than how Vivi's faring in the race.
LVL 50 | Ribbon Card | This allows me to tighten the input sequence
LVL 60 | Nova Dragon Card | without getting mucked up with distractions.
LVL 70 | Genji Card | It may not work with everyone, but that's all
LVL 80 | Athlete Queen | the advice I've got. It's pretty dang hard
-------'--------------------' later on... >__>
TIP: Hikari Kirameku writes "Dunno if anyone's mentioned this before, but if
you're using a PS2 analog controller (and this prolly works for the PS1 ones
too), if you turn the analog off, you can use the right analog stick in place
of the square and circle buttons. That way all you have to do is flick it left
and right really fast, and it gets Vivi running at a pretty decent clip. Only
downside is you tend to wear your arm out doing it, but maybe others will have
better luck using the analog stick method, instead of alternating buttons, if
they don't have access to a turbo controller."

CRACKS IN THE MOUNTAIN [CRCK]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
These weird item caches are found in remote ares and can only be opened with
a mountain chocobo, mostly because Dead Peppers can only be obtained after a
player's got one. The following can be dug up by pointing Choco's beak toward
a suspicious crack (or line) and using said pepper. When in doubt of one's
location, remember that all cracks are untraversable -- if Choco's forced out
of the way, there's probably one there. Location are as follows:
* On the Lost Continent, in the NW area of 'Seatence Ice Field', look along
the northern coast's mountain range. A east-facing side will have a weird
criss-cross marking; use a Dead Pepper on it. This'll give you a nice boon
of: 41 Lapis Lazuli + 1 Rosetta Ring + 1 Protect Ring + 1 Airship Card
* Freya's ultimate weapon can be dug up with a mountain chocobo, in a half-

-hidden crack near Oeilvert. Check the world map and look at the Forgotten
Continent. The black spots stand for forested areas; there is only one of
those blotches on the western part of the continent, NW of Oeilvert's
location. On the second layer, look for a big black line (face SE) on the
cliffside. Crack it open with a Dead Pepper and you'll get Maiden Prayer
and a Dragon's Hair lance! There's a Gauntlets and Odin Card up in there,
too!
* In the same vein as the above weapon-finding quest, on the eastern coast
of this continent, north of Oeilvert and even the eastern chocobo tracks,
there is a small enclosed area with a tiny forest. Next to that forest is
another crack that can be opened with a dead pepper: 19 Eye Drops, one
Madain's Ring, a Genji Helmet, and a Hilde Garde 1 Card!
Note that these are the only ones that give /treasure/, but there are still a
few more cracks to dig up regarding other sidequests. Check out the [HLPM]
section for more info.

RANK 'S' TREASURE HUNTER [RNKG]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Once the Hilde Garde 3 airship is obtained on Disc 3 [post-Esto Gaza], the
town of Daguerreo can be accessed. Fly to the largest landmass south of the
Forgotten Continent (Sacrobless Island) and enter inside. Near the library
below the synthesis shop, a four-armed man will be adjudicate Zidane on his
treasure-hunter skills. The ranks in order of lowest to highest are:
H -> G -> F -> E -> D -> C -> B -> A -> S
Things that contribute towards raising the ranking:
* Opening treasure chests -. __________________________________

* using field icons |-|Thanks to Lord Faust for this info|
* Obtaining Key items -' ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Upon reaching Rank S, the man will get startled and run away. Follow him back
to the town entrance to learn that he's not really famous and is a low-rank
hunter (D, to be precise). He really just wants to be stronger so he's not
pushed around and called "four-arms." Before he splits, he gives Zidane the
key item [RANK S MEDAL]! He also divulges his real name, which no mortal has
ever heard before or again... :D
(NOTE: If you follow this guide, you should be able to get the medal upon
first reaching Daguerreo!)

Excalibur is a sword for Steiner, his third-best, which can be obtained on

the last (4th) disc. Here are the steps to take in order to get this rarity,
which'll teach him the Climhazzard ability:
01) On Daguerreo's third floor, by the inn, talk to the old man who talks of
a 'Magical Fingertip' he'd like to see at least once in his life.
02) In Treno's auction, buy and sell the following:
* Rat Tail --------> Sell to Adventurer by synth shop's exterior

* Une's Mirror ----> Sell to Nobleman by synth shop's exterior
* Doga's Artifact -> Sell to Scholar inside the synthesis shop
* Griffin's Heart -> Sell to Adventurer by synth shop's exterior
03) The Magical Fingertip (key item) should now show up in the auction. It
fetches quite a price, usually between 50000-60000g. Once it's bought,
you can't buy it again...you won't need it again, anyway.
04) Bring it to the old man in Daguerreo and he'll give an Excalibur as the
prize. That's all!

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
This can only be done on disc four.
Visit Fat Chocobo after opening all chocograph treasures, digging up all the
mountain crack treasures and unearthing all items underwater (including the
Ultima Weapon at Shimmering Isle's former location). Watch the scenes about
Mene and Choco, and after leaving, return and challenge Fatty to a game of
cards. He'll talk about restoring the party whenever they're on a beach...
provided they find all of them first.
What the player has to do is walk on a beach (w/o Choco) and press the circle
button -- a bell-type sound should play, like you picked up an item. Here are
the locations you'll have to stop at. It's not too hard for continents since
you can just follow the coastlines, but anyway...
[OUTER CONTINENT] [MIST CONTINENT] [LOST CONTINENT]
* Banyano Shores * Togull Beach * Quelmiera Shores

* Dyshnose Shores * Eesistern Coast * Ryuki Shores
* Gegalrich Shores * Tuhanda Shores
* Kognish Shores * Nomarania Beach
* Shengalasta Shores * Metalark Shores
* Falstead Coast * Makiki Beach

Here are the various islands around, and where to find 'em:
[BEACH] [LOCATION]
* Commure Shores Talon-shaped island north of the Outer Continent

* Lanshake Island Small island south of Chocobo's Forest
* Everlang Island Long island west of Forgotten Continent
* Lanar Island Island where fourth Qu's Marsh is located
* Salvage Archipelago Island east of Daguerreo w/ chocobo tracks
* Palmnell Island Island by Daguerreo where Chocobo's Lagoon is

HELPIN' MOGNET CENTRAL [HLPM]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
NOTE: In case you've heard conflicting information from other guides or

sources, this CAN ONLY BE DONE ON DISC FOUR! You can't do it on Disc 3 by
delivering all letters or any of that crap. Don't believe the misinformation,
yo!
---
Mognet Central is a 'post office' that's hidden behind a mountain crack on

the talon-shaped island north of the Outer Continent. To access it, you'll
need an Ocean chocobo or better, so get one before starting this up.
---
By Disc 4, Mognet Central's deliveries are floundering, to the degree where

there ain't any traffic at all. To start this mini-quest, talk to Kupo in
Alexandria who'll want to get to the bottom of these shenanigans. Pick up
his letter to Atla to start this delivery route, like so:
01) Kupo in Alexandia ------------> Atla in Burmecia

02) Atla in Burmecia -------------> Mogryo in Black Mage Village
03) Mogryo in Black Mage Village -> Kumool in Ipsen's Castle
04) Kumool in Ipsen's Castle -----> Mois at Fossil Roo Entrance
05) Mois at Fossil Roo Entrance --> Noggy at Daguerreo
06) Noggy at Daguerreo -----------> Kupo in Alexandria
NOTE: You need to bring Quina with in order to revisit Fossil Roo's Entrance
Deliver Kupo's letter to learn that "Superslick" is needed to fix the Mognet
Central machine, and that someone in Alexandria's got it! Talk to Ruby to
get the key item [SUPERSLICK]. Now that you have it, take your ocean choco
to that talon-shaped island I mentioned above and use a Dead Pepper to open
the crack there. Talk to Artemecion and give him the stuff; everything'll be
made right again! A [PROTECT RING] is the final reward!

OZMANIA [OZM1]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Ozma is the game's super-hard optional boss, and vexes many players due to
its cheap, quick-hitting attacks. About 90% of this section was written by
Daniel Burapavong; the other ten percent is just me filling in the gaps with
notes and junk.
Getting to Ozma
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Ozma is located in Chocobo's Air Garden, the final dig site in the Chocobo Hot
& Cold minigame. Due to the nature of the sidequest, the earliest point one
can get there is on Disc 3 around the time the Hilde Garde 3 comes into the
player's possession. From now on until the end of the game, Ozma -- who is
found by inspecting the rock structure on one side of the garden a few times
-- is able to be fought.
Preparing for Ozma

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
I recommend using a party of Zidane, Steiner, Quina, and Eiko to defeat Ozma
and steal all his items (Elixir, Robe of Lords, Dark Matter, Pumice Piece).
Zidane's level should be in the 70s and the others in the mid to high 60s.
Make sure no character's level is a multiple of 4 or 5 in order to avoid Lv4
Holy and Lv5 Death, which Ozma likes to cast. Equip each character with the
best equipment you have, then make sure to equip Egoist Armlets to Zidane,
a Demon's Mail to Steiner, and Pumice Pieces to Quina and Eiko (to
absorb Shadow and Holy). For abilities, make sure everyone has Auto-Haste,
Auto-Regen, Auto-Potion, Clear Headed, and Antibody equipped. For Zidane,
make sure he also has Bandit, Mug, and Master Thief equipped - all these will
aid in stealing Ozma's items. For Quina and Eiko, make sure they also have
Loudmouth equipped to protect against Silence. Equipping any additional
abilities will make this battle easier, such as HP+10% for Zidane, HP+10% and
HP+20% for Steiner, and Half MP both for Quina and Eiko.
SGN NOTE: If the player completed the "Friendly Monsters Quest" satisfactorily
Ozma can be targeted by all physical attacks and becomes WEAK to
Shadow rather than absorbing it. Since Doomsday hits all targets on
the field, it's better to try and absorb it rather than nullify.

|____________|_____________________________________________________________|
As soon as the battle begins, the number one priority should be having Quina
cast Auto-Life each party member. Start with Zidane since he is your
strongest character, then move to Eiko, Steiner, and Quina in that order.
Once everyone has Auto-Life cast on them, have Quina cast Frog Drop. The
damage Frog Drop causes depends on how many frogs you've caught in Qu's
Marshes. I had caught 99 at the time (the minimum to obtain Quina's ultimate
weapon) and Frog Drop was doing about 6,700 HP damage for me.
Eiko should be casting Curaga to the entire party every round. This may seem
like overkill, but you never know when Ozma will unleash a devastating attack
or two before it's Eiko's turn again. In addition to Curaga, having Eiko in
your party is good because if two or more of your party members are wiped out
(most likely by Meteor or Curse), she can summon Phoenix who will revive all
of your fallen comrades. There is also a chance that if you entire party
gets wiped out, Phoenix will arise and cast Rebirth Flame which restores your
entire party to full health! The more Phoenix Pinions you have in your
inventory, the greater the chance of this happening.
Zidane should be constantly stealing. Since you have the Mug ability
equipped, he will also damage Ozma during his successful steals to the tune
of about 3,000 HP each time. Steiner should use his special ability Shock
each round. This should do 9,999 HP damage each time.
If Steiner trances, then just have him do regular attacks to save MP. You
should still be doing 9,999 HP damage with each hit. If Zidane trances,
unleash Grand Lethal, but don't kill Ozma too early if you still have items
to steal. Remember he has four items - Elixir, Robe of Lords, Dark Matter,
and Pumice Piece. If Eiko trances, then cast Curaga on the entire party and
Holy on Ozma (but only if his lighter colored half is on top, otherwise he
will absorb Holy). Quina's trance is pretty much useless in this battle.
SGN NOTE: I recommend using Freya with a fully-boosted Dragon's Crest rather
than Steiner, even if it takes more time. Why? All of Steiner's
attacks, including the lauded Shock, are physical, will be turned
into crap if he's hit with Mini (via Curse). It can be rectified
in-battle, but Ozma has no wait time -- it's a stumbling block.
[Darkside, however, will still do normal damage during Mini.]
Now the good thing about having Auto-Potion equipped on everybody is because
it also increases the amount of time that your party can gain HP through
Auto-Regen. Your party should be immune to Ozma's Doomsday, Lv4 Holy, and
Lv5 Death attacks if you followed the recommended steps in the preparation
section above. The only other status ailments you really need to worry about
are Mini and Berserk. Whenever this happens, just have Quina or Steiner use
a Remedy to cure Mini or Gysahl Greens to cure Berserk. Also have Quina or
Steiner use Elixirs on any of your party members who may be getting low on
MP.
Ozma has 55,535 HP, so if you are keeping track of your attacks on him and
haven't stolen everything you want yet, then hold back from killing him until
you do. Just make sure to keep Auto-Life cast on everyone and your HP
levels high. If you follow these steps, your battle with Ozma should be MUCH
easier and you will get to score some great rare items. After you win the
battle, Ozma will drop a Dark Matter, plus Mene will give an Ozma card and
Strategy Guide key item. Congratulations, you have just beaten the hardest
boss in Final Fantasy IX!

FRIENDLY CREATURES SIDEQUEST [FMS1]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
These monsters appear on the world map and WILL NOT attack you, so make sure
you don't cut 'em down either. Finding them all allows the party to hit Ozma,
the game's optional boss, with regular attacks which wouldn't ordinarily be
possible; and, Ozma becomes weak to Shadow instead of being able to absorb
it. A few notes:
* There is no order to do this
* Friendly monsters cannot be killed
* Once the monsters give out AP, they cannot appear again
* The 'Gimme Cat' monster IS NOT FRIENDLY! Do not give it a Diamond!
* You know a friendly monster battle is coming by the 'friendly' music theme
There is no order, as said, but it's recommended you do them in the order I
list, 'cause they're setup so some rewards are recycled and doing 'em in
any way you please messes this up.
.----------------.---------------------------------.----------------------.
| 'NICE' MONSTER | ENCOUNTERED (Nearest Location) | REWARD |
'----------------+---------------------------------+----------------------|
| Mu | Nolrich Heights (Dali) | 10 AP + Potion |
| Ghost | Bentini Heights (Treno) | 10 AP + Hi-Potion |
| Ladybird | Magdalene Forest (B.M.Village) | 20 AP + Ether |
| Yeti | Lucid Plains (Madain Sari) | 20 AP + Elixir |
| Nymph | Pualei Plains (Iifa Tree) | 30 AP + Emerald |
| Jabberwock | Seaways Canyon (Oeilvert) | 40 AP + Moonstone |
| Feather Circle | Mitmakis Ice Field (Esto Gaza) | 30 AP + Lapis Lazuli |
| Garuda | Popos Heights* | 40 AP + Diamond |
| Yan | Vile Island* | 50 AP + Rosetta Ring |
'----------------'---------------------------------'----------------------'
NOTE: If you're looking for Ghost on Disc 4, try looking on the small strip
of land on the mountainside, facing the Quan's Dwelling fishing site.
This is where I found it within a matter of battles; might work for
you.
NOTE: The friendly Nymph/Jabberwock/Yan ONLY appears in the forest!!!
---
'Mu' through 'Nymph' all want Ore in varying amounts, from 1-3; the rest want
gemstones. If you're doing this in order, this is a natural flow -- friendly
Jabberwock wants Nymph's Emerald, Feather Circle wants Jabberwock's Moonstone
and so on, so forth...
---
The two asterisked monsters are the only out-of-the-way ones to find. To get
the friendly Garuda, enter Gizamaluke's Grotto where Moguta and his family
are and climb up the vine to enter the heights -- the bird in question will
appear in the forest nearby sometimes (but Grand Dragons appear on the plains
so watch out).
To reach the Yan, you'll have to get fly on transportation to reach the isle
SW of the Outer Continent. The friendly Yan'll appear in the forest area, but
you'll probably have to go through scores of the much, much harder ones 'fore
you find it (they ARE the hardest regular enemy in the game, after all).

HADES, THE MASTER SYNTHESIST [HDSY]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
The master synthesist you may have heard about is actually this optional boss
that can be encountered on the fourth disc. In Memoria's ocean room, which is
just past the second save point, search behind the right-hand rock formation
to find it. There is no field icon to tell you it's there, so just mash the
X-button to find it. Keep talking to it and you'll be able to fight it. 'Fore
you do this, have:
* shadow-absorbing/nulling equipment
* Clear Headed Ability
* Antibody Ability
* Body Temp Ability
_________________________________________________________________________

||_______________________________________________________________________||
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Going all out here is crucial in all manners -- Doomsday will hit allies
and heal Hades, too! Luckily, when he's powering his sword, he's not in
attack mode, so that's when you should heal up and strike the hardest.
Shock + No Mercy + Holy per turn can do up to 27000+, so this isn't the
most difficult fray you've jumped in. Just as well, here's the division
of labor, since this CAN be incredibly annoying if you get off on the
wrong foot...
* Zidane - steal that Robe of Lords! That's all you really need, unless
you haven't learned Auto-Haste (Running Shoes) on everyone.
* Steiner - Uh, use Shock or the most powerful sword skill he has. Don't
both with Minus Strike or that crap...although, if Vivi's not
being used, the Ragnarok can inflict Slow with its regular
attack.
* Amarant - Aura, Aura, Aura! Use No Mercy once everyone's covered, and
have him on semi-standby to use a "Power Up"-d Chakra or
an Elixir, if Judgement Sword is used.
* Eiko - Curaga-all for Cleave, although Madeen/Holy plays on its

weakness. Boost its damage with holy-enhancing equipment
for better effect! Full-Life will also help, as will Haste.
For those who get hit with Curse's mini, just spread her
own spell among the party!
* Quina - Angel's Snack will remove all statuses, so if you protect

him/her against the bad stuff, this is a godsend. Unless
you've powered up Frog Drop to 9999-dmg status, s/he's not
imperative.
* Freya - Jump is alright here, but a 9999-dmg Dragon's Crest is the

real pull for her...if you have it.
* Dagger - She's just like Eiko but with less white mage abilities and
no holy spells. I don't recommend her for this fight.
* Vivi - You can give him Auto-Reflect and bounce Flare Spells off him
onto Hades for more damage. This lowers the healing abilities
on him if you're using magic, though; it's fine if you've got
Amarant watching his back.
After Hades has died, he'll open his shop for you [LINK: SH53], which is
the only place to create Dagger's final eidolon 'Ark' from a Pumice, as well
as the Tin Armor, Protect Ring, Ethers, Phoenix Pinions, and the useless but
fun Save the Queen item (throwable). NOTE: If you make the Tin Armor, you
can't witness a special scene during the ending, which requires the Hammer
in the inventory.

ULTIMATE WEAPONS [ULTY]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Here're the methods to get these fancy-schmancy murdering tools, and earliest
possible times for doing so. Spoilers ahead!
.--------.
| ZIDANE |
'--------'
Weapon : Ultima Weapon

Atk Pwr : 100
Add ST : Sleep
Teaches : Flee
Earliest: Disc 4
Method : After the Shimmering Island has been shattered through the return
from Terra, get your Ocean chocobo and walk out to the middle of
where the isle used to stand. In the very middle, use Dead Peppers
until you dig this up (along with some other stuff).
.------.
| VIVI |
'------'
Weapon : Mace of Zeus

Atk Pwr : 35
Add ST : Mini
Teaches : Doomsday
Earliest: Disc 4
Method : In Memoria, after defeating Kraken, a room you'll come across is
called "Gaia's Birth" with a ladder going up. Climb it up to the
first platform and check the corners. One will have a card phantom
and the other will have the ultimate weapon.
.--------.
| DAGGER |
'--------'
Dagger actually has two, technically, since can equip two weapon types.
Weapon : Whale Whisker [Rod]

Atk Pwr : 36
Add ST : -----
Teaches : Curaga, Life
Earliest: Disc 3
Method : Dig it up in the 'Ocean' chocograph. There is a long north/south-
-stretching island west of the Forgotten Continent, and it has a
few chocobo tracks on it. Search off the western coast and you'll
find it eventually, earning this weapon with some other stuff.
Weapon : Tiger Racket

Atk Pwr : 45
Add ST : -----
Element : Wind
Teaches : Dispel (can't learn)
Earliest: Disc 3
Method : Get an Ocean Chocobo and go to Quan's Dwelling. Have Zidane go
out onto the landing fishing spot and inspect the foam below. He
should appear on the world map with choco, now. Use a Dead Pepper
and he will jump down to the foam, and you'll get some treasure,
with one being the Tiger Racket.
.---------.
| STEINER |
'---------'
Weapon : Excalibur II
Atk Pwr : 108
Add ST : ----
Element : Holy
Teaches : Climhazzard, Stock Break, Minus Strike
Earliest: Disc 4
Method : This is the hardest ultimate weapon to achieve, because you have
to reach the Lich boss fight in Memoria by the game's twelve-hour
(12) mark, defeat it, then search the terrace to find it. Because
this won't be feasible for casual players, here's the penultimate
weapon for Steiner:
Weapon : Ragnarok
Atk Pwr : 87
Add ST : Slow
Element : -----
Teaches : Shock, Thunder Slash
Earliest: Disc 3
Method : Play through the Chocobo Hot & Cold minigame (see: CCHC) until
you've earned a gold chocobo and the Outer Island chocograph.
Off the east coast of the Outer Continent are two islands that
have no beaches, only forests. The southernmost will have this
weapon in it.
.------.
| EIKO |
'------'
Like Dagger, Eiko can use two weapon types, and so has two ultimates...
Weapon : Angel Flute

Atk Pwr : 33
Add ST : -----
Element : -----
Teaches : Holy, Esuna, Curaga
Earliest: Disc 4
Method : In Memoria, after defeating Maliris, the party will come to a room
that resembles Alexandria and shows a scene from its past. Once
it's finished, search by the stairway -- one of the field icons is
a hidden save point, the other is this weapon.
Weapon : Tiger Racket

Atk Pwr : 45
Add ST : -----
Element : Wind
Teaches : Dispel
Earliest: Disc 3
Method : Get an Ocean Chocobo and go to Quan's Dwelling. Have Zidane go
out onto the landing fishing spot and inspect the foam below. He
should appear on the world map with choco, now. Use a Dead Pepper
and he will jump down to the foam, and you'll get some treasure,
with one being the Tiger Racket.
.-------.
| FREYA |
'-------'
Weapon : Dragon's Hair

Atk Pwr : 77
Add ST : -----
Element : -----
Teaches : Dragon Breath
Earliest: Disc 3
Method : The earliest point is when you're forced to go to Oeilvert; later
on the disc, once you have an airship, you can come back and do it
as well. Either way, you'll need a Mountain Chocobo and some Dead
Peppers. West of Oeilvert is a forest (shown by a black patch on
the world map -- the ONLY one to the west) that is encased in a
two-layer cliff. Get on the first layer and find the shady-looking
black line going through the second level. Dig there and this weap
will be yours.
.-------.
| QUINA |
'-------'
Weapon : Gastro Fork

Atk Pwr : 77
Add ST : Stop
Element : -----
Teaches : High Tide
Earliest: Disc 1 [technically]
Method : This weapon is obtained through the frog-catching minigame, so it
really doesn't belong to any point in time on any one disc. Once
ninety-nine (99) frogs have been caught, Quale will challenge the
party to battle. Defeat him and this weapon will be earned.
.---------.
| AMARANT |
'---------'
Weapon : Rune Claws

Atk Pwr : 83
Add ST : Darkness
Element : -----
Teaches : Spare Change, Demi Shock, Revive
Earliest: Disc 4
Method : In Memoria, after defeating Maliris, there will be a screen where
a large staircase is going up into an eyeball. Search left of the
stairbottom in an off-screen portion to find the claws. This can
be done before fighting Tiamat, by the way.
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
ENDGAME BLACKJACK [BLKJ]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
After getting to the last screen in the game, where the prelude plays, press
the following combination to play some blackjack:
R2, L1, R2, R2, Up, X, Right, Circle, Down, Triangle, L2, R1, R2, L1, Square,
Square, Start
You'll now be able to play the cardgame. The object is to get cards to add
up to twenty-one (21), winning the hand. Face cards (Ace, King, Queen, Jack)
are worth ten (10) points, while lower cards (2-10) are worth just what # is
displayed.
* 'Hit' gives you one more card

* 'Stand' stops you from drawing cards; you see what the dealer gets
* 'Double' means you draw another card and if you win, your wager doubles
* 'Split' can be used only if your first two cards are of the same value;
this will split them into two hands and you play from there.
If you lose, you'll be sent back to 'The End' screen, but can replay the game
again if you want.

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Here's the equipment stuffs, listed by character. This'll have to do until I

list the buy/sell, locations, and stuff. It'll come...eventually. <cackle>
Note that for defense-raising equipment, a "+5" for instance would mean that
from the base value, which is zero; not plus five to whatever stats you've
currently got equipped. If it's too much of a hassle, I can change it. <3

VIII. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS [FAQZ]
_______________________________________________________________________________
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
[Q] - Is there a New Game+ Mode?

[A] - No.
[Q] - How do I do a soft reset?

[A] - Start + Select + L1 + L2 + R1 + R2
[Q] - What happened to PlayOnline? Does it still exist?

[A] - It used to (at www.square-enix-usa.com/strategy/FF9) but seems to be
completely defunct now.
[Q] - How many endings are there?

[A] - There's one, but with an extra scene that can be shown.
[Q] - How do I get that extra scene?

[A] - Have the 'Hammer' item won from the Stellazzio coin quest in your
inventory at the end of the game.
[Q] - What is the extra scene?

[A] - King Leo executes Blank's character in the play.
[Q] - What does Six Dragons REALLY do?

[A] - Well, as you know, there are six outcomes that it can do. Forget who
brought it up, but the percentages were just recently revealed:
[20%] - Fully Heals HP

[20%] - Fully Heals MP
[20%] - Reduces HP & MP to 1
[15%] - Reduces MP to 1
[15%] - Reduces all allies' HP to 1
[10%] - Fully Heals HP & MP
[Q] - I missed the Excalibur II. Can I get it when the clock changes colors
at 100:00?
[A] - Nope. Someone did calculations and it'd take over two years of in-game
clock-running to get the turnover needed to have another 12-hour window
to get it. Naturally, I don't recommend such a thing since that much
use will degenerate the console itself.
[Q] - How do I change party members?

[A] - Depends on the disc. There are a few one-time prompts that happen on the
second disc, but it's only on Disc 3 when the Blue Narciss is obtained
that the regent will be available for party-switching on a whim. A sailor
on the Hilde Garde 3 will do this also. On Disc 4, this function can be
done on the Invincible or the save orbs in Memoria.
[Q] - How do I do the 'Eidolon Wall' quest regarding Dagger?

[A] - Be on Disc 4 and have Dagger/Amarant out of the party. Enter Madain Sari
and talk to Lani, who won't run away this time. She'll mention that there
are some words that might mean something in the room 'down there,' in the
small den by the fishing dock. Enter and read a cryptic message about the
passage of time -- this relates to the Eidolon Wall. Enter said location.
Pick a direction and walk from the entrance back to the entrance (in full
rotation) until a 'ding!' noise plays. Start walking back the way ya came
until the entrance is met again, with another 'ding!' noise. Repeat this
nine times to have the HP/MP refreshed. On the tenth time, go and get
Dagger -- a special message will now be visible on the wall and relate to
her heritage.
[Q] - How do I skip FMVs on the slimline PS2?

[A] - Credit to Atomos99 for bringing this to my attention. When an FMV stalls
or freezes, pop open the lid and switch for a different disc; when the
screen turns black, switch back. This will work, I've done it myself. A
note, though: there's usually a degree of haste involved in switching
discs, so be careful not to scratch up any other discs as you perform
this operation (through fumbling, etc). Good luck!

I'll definitely be updating the sidequest section next, mostly because I've
messed up the Kupo Nut delivery scheme and didn't include any Triple Triad
junk <shudder>. Or Ozma stuffs. Or who can't equip what in the equipment
section... Hmm, well, all in due time, yeah?

PRINCESS GARNET TIL ALEXANDROS XVII

Diamond ---> 'Dia Light' -----> Vanish to all

Here are the character overviews in this department.

For everyone else:

Fire <-> Ice

Now for the good statuses you WANT to be 'inflicted' with:

* AP is obtained no matter how you win a battle

02) It will be red/blue/gray. If it's red, it means the action ability is

This is fairly easy to understand, but I figure I'll go over it anyway...

_ .--can't access at this point

Finally, when you're done walking around, go to the ticketmaster booth in

Whew, that long stretch is out of the way.

.------------.------------. There are one hundred (100) nobles in attendance

After some auto-scenes, it's time for a rematch!

Time for the last waltz...

Immediately after, there is...another...boss fight. ^____^

Everyone ends up back at the Prima Vista...

Fight some Fangs/Goblins to level everyone up a bit (level three is good).

Enter the tiny farm village nearby when ready to proceed.

Steiner is inquiring about the cargo ship at Observatory Mountain, currently.

Dagger won't be joining in this battle, but Vivi gets an automatic

[LINDBLUM GRAND CASTLE]

* 12-minute time limit

* FREYA WINS IF:

[Q] - Can Zidane win without killing Zaghnol?

[Q] - Why won't some of the monsters you listed appear?

[Q] - Why can't Freya kill Zaghnol?

After the 'feast' is done, Freya suggests heading to Gizamaluke's Grotto,

[ZIDANE] [FREYA] [VIVI]

* The Ogre * Javelin * Mage Staff

ENEMIES ON WORLD MAP : Ironite, Ladybug, Serpion, Vice, Mandragora

Anyway, off to Burmecia. Bring an umbrella!

* Watch 'Treno Tradition' ATE -- IN FIRST SCREEN!!!!

By the windmill-filled platform, there's a [PHOENIX PINION] where the bridges

Watch the sandstorm-strengthening ritual/harbinger and see what's happening

Equipping Man Eater from this point on would be a good idea.

#1 - "Let's head right!"

It's a bumpy, bumpy ride to...

* At the crash site

Here's what can be obtained now that Lindblum's been changed:

* In the inn, get the [LETTER: Moodon -> Moonte]
