WEWT! im at the west gate, i just finished the sunstone part and got me pheonix downs, and when i saved at the gate, i had a time of 28 minute 30 seconds. i think that's pretty good for my first go at this!
You know what would be cooler? I've got no problems with FFXII's battle system, but if it was turn based, and it counted each turn, then it would be awesome to try and beat the game with the least amount for turns.
i need some help....my chars are lvl 13 and since i just noticed this sweet lvlibng technique i thought i'd give it a go...dstia only appears once though.....i'm low hp and everything and still after i killed dustia once it doesn't appear anymore....
You sure that when you killed it, exp and lp did not show on the screen when you zoned quickly? There are 2 possibilities. You might not have HP below 10% and you might have seen LP and Experience showing up as soon as Dustia died before zoning. Make sure to check these when doing this trick. If you messed up, just zone 2 zones and spawn Dustia again.
Steal about 2 quality pelts from the werewolves in Giza plain while doing the sunstone sidquests, sell that and some extra potions, Orrachea Armlet (optional), and you might have close to 10 Phoenix Downs. You also get a Phoenix Down from Penelo or one of the NPC's after completing Giza.
This speed run helped me alot now i can start the game at a higher level. And all it takes is a few phx dwns THNX!!! ALOT think you can send me a few hints tips or armor/weapon locations plz ur pal yodelboy (i subsribed to you be my friend please).
uh kool lol do u got a vid 4 it also infusion technique with 1 mp is better for criticaling cuz infuse = ALL MP X10=new current hp cant be used like bubble for over hp
What level are you and what are your equipments? Make sure to have Black Belts to avoid disable. Also, you can use a Cypress Pole against her since she's weak against Earth.
hmm i think i'll just sit back and watch some speed run like when i first did when i got to youtube, remember? =D lol so much has passed since then...
cool. is it a good game? oh yes, vossler sucks ass in that fight (no really he does) nobody even cam close to dying and then fran whipped his ass in a quickening all by herself xD
You have to toss the Phoenix Down and kill it on slow mode. The trick is to pick up any loot that drops and zone out to the next screen before the LP and EXP of Dustia shows up on the screen. Zone back and Dustia should keep reappearing. If LP and EXP shows up before you go back, he will not reappear and you have to go back 2 zones to respawn him.
Dustia only appears when your HP is less than 10%. That's why I hit myself until my HP is at that level. You can also use the wolves to take down some of your HP.
how the heck did you get 10 phoenix downs before going to garamscythe? I am at that same point you described and I could only get 5... I got the 300 gil reward from tomaj, got the phoenix downs from penelo and that one girl in the village in giza plains after you get the sunstone, and selling all my tp stones would only allow me to get 1 more... so how did you get 10?!
I stole 1 Quality Hide from the werewolf in Giza Plains. I then sold 10 potions and Penelo's equipments. Also, I collected treasure chests while heading to Giza Plains. I was able to acquire a few gil and antidotes which I also sold. When I was finished with the Sunstone sidequest, I killed 2 Hyenas and stole from them. If you are trying this, I recommed you steal 2 Quality Hides from the werewolves in Giza.
Excellent stuff! It's already quite complicated at this point, I can't wait until you get to the point in the game where the level advantage from Dustia begins to seem non-existent.
04:54 You could've have organise your inventory menu, so that the Phoneix Down item appears at the top, instead of second from the top.
Being extremly organised, I notice that right away.

This is very helpful for international version.
Do you have to beat the mark hunts? What are the things that you have to ignore? Do you acquire all Espers?
Graradiant 3 years ago
Ignore all hunts, extra espers not dealing with story, and just do the story events. you don't really have time for extras if you want a good time.
jamdown2008 3 years ago
This is probably a stupid question, but why do you nearly kill yourself before chaining the dustia @_@?
But yeah. I may try that. Despite being a fair bit further in the game atm =P. Thx =)
jesus6662008 3 years ago
you need to have less then 10% hp for dustia to show up

Awesome leveling by Dustia is not very important, my beat time was 9 hours and 11 minutes but i can make it much shorter next time ;-)
Keep this up we will work together
Ashe10 4 years ago
Yeah, I kinda figured that the Dustia leveling wasn't that important. I'm still going to try for a shorter time also.
