This is the first time I've seen anyone else discuss that bridge. I've used that on every playthrough I've done to get all of my characters up to level 20 before moving on with the story. In addition to that, the Bone Fragments those skeletons drop are great for building up an early stockpile of gil. Glad to see someone else finally talk about it!

I always did that one. I went extra crazy though and farmed bone fragments and spent it all on every Monograph. I refused to continue with the game until I finished. Back to being Gil broke, but got a good bit of extra levels and don't have to think about those dumb Monographs for the rest of the game.

There's actually now an even easier way to make tons of money. And you can do it right at the start of the game. 1. Load up Trials 2. Run up the stairs to your left until you find a chest with a Diamond Armlet in it 3. Beat Trial 1 4. Intentionally die in Trial 2 5. Reload your auto-save (the one that says "Trials" on it) 6. Go sell the Diamond Armlet for SIX THOUSAND gil then save your game 7. Repeat the process until you're filthy damn rich The only thing that can stop this from working is if you're currently wearing a Diamond Armlet while doing this as it will turn that Diamond Armlet chest into a First Aid. So make sure you are NOT at ANY point wearing a Diamond Armlet while doing this. And obviously, save 1 Diamond Armlet for that quest to get the Seitengrat since at least 1 Diamond Armlet will be needed. =P So don't sell them all. Sell all of them...except for 1.

True. But some people are completionists and will go after Seitengrat without actually ever using it likely until doing the Trial gauntlet or fighting the Judges at Trial 100. At that point, it's a good thing to have even if you didn't plan on using it in the main story. Which would still warrant getting the monographs since otherwise, you'd be planning to play normally. Also as a heads up, it turns out the auto-save does not act as a save state, sadly. Save states load you into the same instance every time. Thus with a save state, you'd be able to keep the chest on screen until you eventually got the bow. But the auto-saves in this act like a zone-in, thus load you into random instances each time you load them up. So you could go from having the chest there, to loading up your auto-save and the chest now being gone. So in this case, I honestly feel that it'd be best to just zone in and out of the deck area manually as it's much faster than constantly reloading your auto-save. Especially since the auto-save doesn't guarantee the chest will stay there.
Chain Bridge? I think that area has been known as the "Bone Zone" since people realized you could farm there back in 06 :D

I did the lhusu method when still in the prison escape. Let the bettery mimic eat all the power and just farm Skeltons
I know this is 7 years old, but if anyone is wondering, Having a monk character that is weaponless is extremely strong in the early game (you'll do about 1k damage with your fists with the brawler license and battle lore strength boosts in the Zodiac version specifically) and you can also farm Kotetsu's from the 2 werewolves in the Giza plains for another strong weapon early (50 power) which is likely why you see Vaan with one already at Lhusu mines. This means you can ignore the gladis or burning bow, whichever you find a greater pain in the butt to acquire, since between the sword and the fist character, you only need 1 other high dps weapon early on to have a party of 3 strong farmers/speed runners. You can also acquire winged helms from the slimes in zertinan caverns that you can access from the westersand, which will boost both your strength and speed for any class that can wear heavy armor. (there's also a magic hat with 41 defense you can farm for fairly early in the game but I forget where it is.) Also, if you're aiming for gil with your Lhusu grinding, going back to the shop after a chain of about 150 skeletons, rather than 250, is going to be significantly more efficient, as you are likely very close to or already capped at 99 bone fragments after a 150 chain. Losing the gil from excess bone fragements in order to main a high chain for longer and hope for iron helms is just not worth it in terms of efficient gil acquisition.
An alternative to the Dustia farm is the skeleton that sometimes spawns in the zone just before Dustia (he spawns near a dive talon.) He only gives about 200 exp less, and is less likely to KO you. Personally, I did the Dustia until I was around level 15, then I went into trials to get the mythril blade and karkata blade (stage 3,) then I progressed to stage 9 and steal farmed the rare zu there until it dropped the rift crossbow. I farmed LP from stages 1-10 until I had enough LP to equip the karkata and proceeded to farm bonus steal items in trials 1-14. The Karkata's confuse effect stunlocked most encounters, so I did a hit and steal pattern to ensure I was fairly safe. After I had the armor and accessories I wanted, I loaded the trial up and farmed the wild Dino in eastersand and the werewolves in southsand. When I was around level 30 I swapped my job to a timemage, equipped my rift crossbow, and farmed the dive talons in westersand (they give around 2k each and there are 3 in a group next to the slime/ toad cave... which is also a decent farming spot since you can get teleport stones from the toads.) I immobilized the birds (a spell you can pick up in trials 11 from a chest) and shot them down until one dropped the burning bow, I then swapped to the ranger job. The burning bow does extra damage when using fire arrows, which i stole from the boss in trial 11, and can oneshot the birds when you are at critical health, with a max LP board, and the amulet you find in the trial 10 chest. You waste a bit of time walking between the maps to force a spawn, but you don't have to buy phoenixdowns by doing this method. Alternatively you can chain farm the toads in the cave for tele stones and use the teleport crystal in westersands to get to the Fort faster. That will save you a lot of walking. Bonus tip, if you do decide to go daggers, for some reason, you can steal the assassin dagger from Tiamat (stage 13 I think?) Tiamat gets stun locked from the karkata, and the dagger is a common steal from her, so it won't take too long to get that. It does an on hit KO effect. Also, the whole 1% drop chance for the burning bow (and bone helm etc) happens more times than you would think when you are spamming a mob for exp. I had 4 bone helms and 15 burning bows (and 9 of the werewolf axe) by the time I hit level 55, in about 10 hours of playtime. Note, you can't chainfarm the dino. It's also false that the weather has to be sunny for the burning bow to drop. I had one drop in a sandstorm.
There is actually a much more simple way to kill those skeletons in the Luhsu mines. Simply set all your char to Foe:Undead attack. They won't attack anything else. I've been doing that with this game since the original version of FFXII. On top of that another good place to farm for money and LP is in the Barheim Passage while escaping from Nalbina. Since you can't get the Foe:Undead gambit till after you leave. Simply have Vaan set with Foe:HP 100% Steal. Have him as your party leader and everyone else set with Foe:Party leader's target attack. I walked out of there in just a few hours with Vaan, Fran, and Balthier's first job about 3/4 finished. Along with a ton of money from constantly selling stacks of 99 Bone Fragments and Dark stones which a few different monsters in there drop. Back during the original game I actually used the Barheim Passage to rack up enough LP to max out everyone's boards before I left. As well as usually having enough money to carry me through the rest of the game.

Musashi1596 same here. I’m waiting until I go against Yasmat to get the seitengrat bow. The Zodiac age version changed how I used gambits and my fighting paradigm. I used to use Van & Basch to constantly deal heavy damage while Fran or Penelo would hang back constaly casting curaja, and casting enhancement spells. Balthier and Ashe would play dual supporting roles dealing damage and healing. Zodiac age made that more difficult to achieve.

honestly i say its best to aim for the burning bow befor you get any party members. i do suggest using the quickening method since the game auto saves when u go into a new area. heres how i do it 1: go to the furthest area of the western sand. and set the game to lowest speed and wait. 2: use a quickening and dont kill the talon doing damage is fine but dont kill it 3: lure it back to the exit point and leave the area use save crystal to restore quicken. 4: go back to the area and reuse the quickening on the one you lured. 5: repeat 3 and 4 untill dead. 6: if he didnt drop quick to menu with out leaveing the area and reload the auto save. 7: repeat steps 3-6 until it drops. tip: if it starts using kamakazi just take the hit and reload. all though you still only have a 1% chance this way allows you to quickly reload the game and retry the kill. once you obtain the burning bow have vaan equip it and kill werewolfs. in 2 hours you can easy get to lv 40+. with a load of gold as well from selling loot. i suggest doing hit and run tatics to do this and not get hit by them. getting the hp licence's help
Monographs don't increase the drop rates, they just make it possible for some particular monsters to drop special kind of loot. For example, with Hunter's Monograph bought, Worgens in Mosphoran Highwaste will have a 10% or so chance of dropping Throat-Wolf's Blood, something you can't get as easily anywhere else. Those chances are independent of the chaining system, so if you're going after this special loot, you don't have to worry about keeping the chain up. I'd prioritize getting Hunter's Monograph over the others. With this monograph the Bagoly enemies in Nam-Yensa Sandsea can drop Bent Staves, which sell for over 1000 gil a piece. Axebeaks, also located in that area, can drop Rainbow Eggs. Sell one of those, and you'll unlock a Hi-Potion pack in the Bazaar. If you don't have a White Mage or Red Battlemage at this point of the game, those Hi-Potions are going to be a great substitute for Cura. If you want some additional power at the start of the game, you can buy the Warmage's Monograph, and go farm Dustia some more. One additional thing monographs do is make the Rare Games of that particular species drop Arcanas. Collect 15 of those from Dustias, then go fly a Skyferry and buy 33 Gysahl Greens from the vendor onboard. Sell all this stuff, and you'll unlock Hermes Sandals in the Bazaar, which grants +5 to Strength and permanent Haste. The only real downside is that they're kinda expensive, and their licenses are a bitch to get to, regardless of which job you pick. Sage's Monograph is a complete waste of gil, buy it if you're going for 100% completion. The only thing they do is make the Entites drop Electrums, which are only used to make the Golden Axe. Not only can you find this axe later on in the Necrohol, but you can also make Scorpion Tail F, a much better weapon for a Foebreaker, way before the final ingredient for the axe becomes accessible. Unless they've changed Electrum's use in TZA, it's absolutely worthless.

HelloWyrm You actually need the Canopic Jar to get Arcana drops, not the monographs.
I got lucky. Burning bow on the first drop. However, the method I used was from xAshe10x. I used dark motes gathered during dustia grinding Penelo. Lure one to the zone exit that leads to the diamond armlet (i believe thats the eqipment chest that spawns there) and zone into that zone. The damage you dealt is maintained on the enemy. You can heal, zone back in and repeat. Once you get it down to one dark mote to kill, do not zone out. In TZA autosave mechanic can be abused. So dark mote, loot, and if you do not get the bow just quit to title and load the autosave rinse and repeat. This will conserve resources and you can get the item from just one dive talon.
The burning bow is even better once you get the fire arrows, because the bow actually has a fire elemental bonus, it will make your attacks with the fire arrows 50% stronger.

I had more than 500 hours of gameplay on the ps2 version, but since I didn't had internet I've never know any of this (except for the old friend Dustia wich was already dead on my game when I knew the trick). Now, having just started the new game, I've come across this video, and after seeing it, my question was: Do I really need to do this? My answer is no, better play like in the old times, no internet, no guides, just enjoy the game like you would enjoy it ten years before.

Seth Hawkins It's actually this way in every Final Fantasy, if you play anymore of them, you can utilize the same tactic.
Burnging bow/ Dive Talon Farming : location Dalmasca Westersand/Windtrace Dunes @ The Western Divide entrance. Zone 2 over to Ogir-Yensa Sandsea to get the Dive Talon to Re-spawn. I got the bow with a 17 kill chain. IF you have your full party/second job it is possible to do it with out the knot of Rust farming. I was at level 28, used Archer, Timebattle Mage, Machinist and Larsa with range weapons. used 74 Knot of Rust. thanks for the walk through ;-)
Here's the main reason Lvl grinding earlier on is a thing: When you have a new party member join your team, that new member's Lv will be (usually an additional +2 Lv's higher than your max) saving you time from having to individually Lv grind each party member. So if you happen to get Vaan Lv99 before entering Barheim Passage, everyone else that joins will already be of maximum experience saving LOADS of time, especially since EXP earned is shared between active party members. It may seem tedious and usually is for those who are just casually enjoying the game, but for those who plan to take on Omega/Yiazmat and Stage 100 of Trial Mode, it makes a big difference since it takes a while to level up. The only other Lvl grind that surpasses the Dustia method is end-game when farming Abysteels in the (Henne?) Mines, but even then do you have to not only grind for all 6 characters, but if you also need Sleepga/Curaja to effeciently plow through them which can be an issue since you now need a WM/BM to use certain spells unlike the original where jobs weren't a thing.
I think the reason I never saw Dustia is because I'm never in critical hp when running through the estersand 😅
I swear by the Dustia grinding trick and also those Abysteel bats in the Henne Mines.
Been replaying the FF series and following many of these vids. Most of these are generally unchanged from the original release though. Getting the burning bow is relatively quick overall and even if you don’t make use of the new Trials mode, the power leveling tricks from the old PS2 days still (mostly) work. On my current replay and first on TZA, I’m about 3% into the story, so still solo with Vaan, and at level 72, with a run time of barely 20 hours (the 4x speed is a lifesaver here). I’m not as efficient with me PS2 method, taking around 85-90 hours to get to 99, but after getting the bow, you switch to Werewolves until around 30, when you can chain Dive Talons and kill them in two hits. So many ways to break this game, it’s a ton of fun no matter what you do.
The burning bow is worthwhile for an Archer/red mage as it boosts fire damage. Fran in my game has that and a black robe for fire and darkness attacks.

When you realize a chain of mob and don't take the loot the chain lvl grow faster. If you kill approximately 35 mobs without looting drops you can have the last chain lvl insteadof killing more than 160 mobs. I'm french and i don't speack english very well but i hope you understand what i mean.
Good exp and gil farm is to go to the golmore jungle with an ice weapon and an exp charm use only one character and kill cats by the entrence and exit to the ozmo area then go back to respawn everything note you have to go two areas away to respawn enemys the cats are worth 1000exp or 2000 with the charm their pelts are worth 400 something and if you chain em they drop 1 to 4 pelts per great area for gil and leveling up to about 60
there is actually still a way to get the Seitengrat 100% of the time look it up on youtube its easy to find and to do youll know your on the right one if you have to load a game from when you control Reks
Can I just say, I know this took you ages to do. But we all love you for it. Good work mate
Playing for the first time since 2007 after spending 450 hours across two playthroughs. I don’t want to break the game (even though I know how it ends), but I do want a Seitengrat for bosses with 50 million HP and upper levels of Trial Mode. But I don’t want it badly enough to spend more than 15 minutes at a time on it.
You don't need 99 Knot of Rust and kill a lot of Dive Talon for combos. 1. Just throw in a few knots of rust to Dive Talon until you only need 1 more hit to kill it. 2. Run towards portal with the monster following you, zone out then zone back in. 3. Monster should still be there and just kill it with 1 hit. 4. If it didn't drop the bow, go back to main menu then load the autosave and you'll get back where you only need 1 hit to kill it then repeat until you get the burning bow. I got mine this way, easier and also got it where the weather is cloudy. Though I figured this method after farming about 80 knots :)

problem is thats just RNG in a nutshell, yes the zoning method is a thing, the problem though is the stupidly low drop chance for bow with no chain. heck even with a chain its still stupid. the problem with RNG is consistancy. somebody could do ether your methad or mine and get it first drop. likewise somebody could spend 12 hours a day for a year and still not get it with ether method. Yours is banking on a quick drop. mine is there expecting a long farm.
I'm just going to give up on the Seitengrat. That RNG is rid-ic-ul-ous 😱
That Bridge is easy to get the LP for quickenings, if you manage to take out Bagamin in the boss fight using them you don't have to run at all
Guys the technick charge is almost useless by itself, but coupled with with syphon can provide endless MP to your mage without using your items. Symply siphon the dps in the squad who is beserked, in most cases the dps does not have actions to take, but character will bulk MP like crazy. P.S. this is for ps2 version, you improvise with the new version.
Does anyone know if these apply to the switch version as well?
Anyone watching this video in 2024, there is now what is called the RNG Cure List that will allow you get every single item you want out of its particular chest, along with the invisible weapons. This includes knowing how to make a chest spawn. Just takes a little time to understand it. But once you do, no more spending hours hoping for an item out of a chest.
I am a classic FFXII player used to play it on PS2 and then after a while i played the zodiac internaional system i know every trick you said except the burning arrows I never noticed it, I also discovered the chest abuse of seitengrat on emulator I also suggest not to get it unless you are playing for fun, it's addicting weapon and discustingly OP 😂 amazing stuff man

I love the way you answer my questions without me asking 😂
yeah the bridge is nice, but you missed the most OP level abuse afk thing you can do. In the main area of Stilshrine of Miriam (the T shaped room with the entrance to esper Matthius to the left, Zeromus portal to the right and the hidden stairs in the central left wall to Matriarch Bomb, a nightmare horse spawns here!), a rare Necromancer spawns when you've been in the place for over an hour. It continually summons ghouls. Set up gambits to only attack enemies below 30,000 health, the party will kill the ghouls and leave the Necro untouched. Set up your usual healing gambits along with remedy to cure doom (MUST have the licence forupgraded remedy) and ether below 10% mp, hankerchief for oil and a cure for berserk. You can literally let the game auto play, until you finally run out of remedies. If by some miracle you die (or have went through 99 remedies) the game will pause at 'choose new party leader'. Make sure you leave the weakest party member as leader to ensure the leader doesn't die last. How afk is it? I set it up at night and went to sleep, went to school, done the rest of my day. I checked it about evening to watch my party now level 99(started about 50ish) go through the last 3 remedies. Then repeat for the other 3 party members. If set up right the ONLY variable is how often the Necro uses Doom, its uncommon. It may last 3-4 hours longer or 3-4 shorter. This was about a decade ago (when i was at high school, i'm 26 now 😆) on PS2 and it was never fixed. Your welcome ^^ *DISCLAIMER - This could ruin your gameplay experience. Enjoy a chunk of the game beforehand if you intend to do this. You could hit max level overnight. I probably did not discover this or be the first 1 to find it, not that hard to stumble across Necro then realise you can abuse it. This also kinda works with Duskia (mentioned in video), but different gambit set up, below 10000 damage i think. and hes more of a pain to spawn. Also summons weaker mobs, so significantly less xp gains.

i got more than 20 hours out of it on my first attempt, completely afk, 50ish to 99. If you got a better way, i'll need to see it 😆 i'm similar to yourself, in regards to destroying rpgs instead of completing them. i'll check that video out, since you replied so quickly.

it gets a character to 99 in about 4 hours iirc and it needs no items. its also easly repeatable and you dont have to wait around for spawns. it is later in the game but you can get to this spot and get to 99 faster than you can in the shrine even with the extra progression needed.

I usually try not to look for help or guides on my first playthroughts. But i'm playing it now, and I picked up the chain bridge thing on my own, though I haven't abused it a whole lot yet. Wanted to keep going. I didn't know about the items to increase drops though, time to talk to vendors.
Just picked this game up for the first time I'm really enjoying the content you've made for this game and your disgaea 5 videos were supreme keep it up!

I remember not getting the burning bow until after I had killed 100 dive talons and then getting the second one on the very next drop. RNGesus works in mysterious ways.
It's funny but back when the english patch came out I played the game with two groups of characters with 1 WM and 2 DMG dealers (physical) each, it was actually funny until there was enemies strong against physical attacks and the party was wiped out (I was already past 70% of the game and the hunts were a nightmare), maybe this time i'll get to make a good party but I suck at choosing classes because I always think about the funniest comps first instead of the most useful. I can recall having like 9 saves with different comps lul The game actually compensates with giving each class at least 1 op weapon or equipment but some of them are late near the end or if you grind them. Nice tips man, I look forward to know more as I forgot about almost everything now haha

Some cool tips, I don't know if I'd wanna break the game that early though and ruin it for myself, I knew about the dagger, but not the bow, will have to wait and see
Got to level 16, got the diamond armlet, got lots of knots of rust. Ok ready to get the burning bow. You forgot to mention that dive talons hit like fucking trucks and knots of rust do jack shit damage if your health isn't crazy high

You can also farm exp charms about mid way into thr game at the tchita uplands the cats there have a 3% chance of droping one if you pouach it blind someone then have them use sight unseen ability it will lower the cats up to close to 1hp then pouch it repeat till you have 2 or 3 charms note it can only be pouched you cant steal or have them drop it
Seems like a lot of "not playing the game" in order to over-level your characters. I think I'd rather just play the game.

FF12 isnt hard, its just heavily luck dependent given just how much RNG there is with regards to everything.
I farmed Burning Bow once you come back from Bhujerba with Penelo as a monk equipped with a pole, Balthier casting Disable and Gravity and a healer. I got 2(!) burning bows in one drop at around 40 chain and a third around 50 chain. My RNG is god-tier. I tried the Knot method but farming knots sucks ass.
Got an early copy and this is helping out a lot, thanks so much!

How many minutes for Stand in front Cabin Deck??
The seitangrat is so easy on PS4 even now. I've had this game since it first came out and finished many times. So for the Zodiac Age you can get a weapon way stronger than the Zodiac Spear, is cool. It's brother helping brother. 88 97 90 RNG 100% chest spawn. Then watch the man on the stairs wait for him to traverse 4 times up and down the stairs. 100% weapon spawn. 30 minutes is the longest for 6 seitangrats. Have fun!!!😂
Wow primal, thanks for all ur tips! Keep it up man.
First tip is huge
Maybe a stupid question, but the knot of rusts I'm using do little to no damage to these birds for me. But I did notice im lower level than you are here, my Vaan is 13, while yours is 22 does that make a difference or am I doing something wrong?

To any new players out there, dont I repeat do not waste your time with the invisible airship bow. OP is right. Its inly worth it if you like... listen to an audio book or do something else while grinding it. Ofc the way rng works you COULD potentially get it on the first try. But thats straight up gambling mentality lol. Either way, the game has some really fun intense moments which are rendered pointless if the game is broken too early. Its a really really good story, try to maintain as much of the narrative as possible on your first play through. (I say first because the game is so easy to replay with all the speed up abd farming features)

you can litarally rig the RNG using ether guides on this channel or guides on other platforms to get a bow every 2 minutes 100% of the time

penolo is leveled on purpose along with vaan because you need both characters to have decent hp for very early flame bow farming.
I got the burning bow completely by accident while doing a normal first time playthrough. I Don't even know how I got it, at first I thought I got it from a quest/hunt but after watching this video that was obviously not the case. Perhaps I got it from those birds by chance? I was around level 20 and only now, at level 40, is the burning bow unlocked in the shop. I've only just now realized that fiery arrows do a lot more damage when using that bow though, I was actually using the poison arrows because they had 1 attack more, lol.
@Primalliquid92

fire arrows make your attacks fire element and the fire bow increases fire damage by 100%. So using them together is basically just an easy way of doubling your attack.
I didn't know the monographs existed. thanks!
What were you killing the dive talons with? Knots of rust?
I usually farm the bridge for about 30 hours. Licence boards become a joke
My vaan is a Bushi/Red Mage and Penelo is Time mage/Black Mage, Balthier is my Shikari
great guide
So I’m trying to get the bow but the chest isn’t showing up on the airship (yes I know it’s invisible) I’m going to the same spot and nothing is popping up
Hey man, watched your video and really enjoyed it (Thanks for the awesome content btw) but I've been having some issues getting a lot of things to work. It seems as though they've fixed quite a few of the things you've mentioned here before the pc release. Examples being on the chain bridge after you get to a chain of 40 they stop spawning or how knots of rust don't drop from those chests in the Estersand anymore. I know this is a super painful thing I'm asking you to do but is there any chance at all you could look at doing another video for the people who bought the pc remaster?
@Primalliquid92
6 жыл бұрын
I have the PC ver and they do all still work. Once they stop spawning on the bridge run back 2 screens and then go back to the bridge and they will spawn again. (Like i said in the video) for knots of rust you need the diamond armlet equiped to your main character (The person who runs around on the screen)
Shit, I'm like 10 or 12 hours into the game and I'm really tempted to start over to try and figure out this monograph thing you're talking about. I think I only half understand what you're describing because not a lot of it was explained besides for how many times you need to interact with the various vendors, but I can do that so hopefully it'll just work when I do it the number of times you say.

Why on earth would you watch a video named "Tricks" just to bitch about people using tricks? We're just gonna watch/ play how we want.
I actually know a pretty cool early Levelling-Up trick, NOTE: I don't know if it still works, as I won't know til tomorrow when I get my copy, so sorry if this turns out false, this is all based on memory and the techniques I used on the original PS2 FFXII. Recommended you be LV 7-10 for this to work, pretty easy enough It'll get you to LV 30 as soon as you gain Penelo as a Party Member in the Giza Plains, try to grind early on to get a lot of LP; it IS necessary, once you obtain Penelo as a Party Member, take these following actions in the License Board For Vaan: Use your LP that you've saved up and purchase the Mist tile RED SPIRAL For Penelo: Use your LP that you've saved up and purchase the Mist tile INTERCESSION NOTE: You SHOULD be able to then use your newly aquired Mist Abillities immediately, I do not know if this has been altered in FFXII Zodiac Age from the original PS2 version. THEN head back to the Desert where you fought the Rogue Tomato, FIND the Green Saurian (Green T-Rex) and perform your Mist Abillities on it, TRY to keep the Combo going as long as you can, it is fairly difficult still, BUT it'll nab you a lotta EXP, defeat it and you SHOULD LV UP 2 or even 3 times, the first time, leave the area, save, rinse and repeat, but it'll start to be less effective by LV 22-25, but push on til LV 30-33, it shouldn't take more than an hour or two, I'm not entirely sure. I APOLOGISE immensely if this method fails, like I said; its all based on personal experience and memory, I have NOT played the game in perhaps 8 years, I hope it does help, but please don't grill me if it proves inneffective, it's a technique I remember using in the original, ALSO I don't know if this is a well-known technique, it's just one I picked up as a kid, I DO HOPE IT STILL WORKS WHEN I GET MY COPY OF FFXII ON PS4 TOMORROW Does this trick help? Please let me know

Dustia is far better due to less RNG, if you fail your quickening its all but sure atleast 1 character will die meaning you would have to keep back tracking to the save point to heal up and get your mist gauge back.

Ive used another thing on top of those; with the Gladius I started killing the werewolves that drop the Kotetsu.
Can anyone help me out ? I have a question the gear or rare loot you get from enemies you need to sell it to the shops for bazaar goods right ? Is that how you get the awesome kind of weapons ? I played this gale when i was 12 but never knew much about what it is i should do. Currently playing again and started over im now level 20 but still farming in the beginning just before you depart at westgate to save princess amalia i think.
Easy Diamond Armlet. Just do the trial mode. first level 100% chance of the armlet being in the treasure chest with the rats. Sells for 6000gil every time. Or you can keep it.. Whichever way you want.can do it over and over and over again. endless gill.
I found some sword cald debolica that is like deathbringer but has a 100% chance to insta kill. The undead well there dead two cause of it being blest with phoenix downs

to be honest I rather play the game normally. It's not till the aftergame that things get hard >.
