nAME OT THE BOW?

[NoMoreLiesAboutMe]

My fav Character is Fran so hot and funny and she is not eaven human xD

im gona use dutia methode to get to lvl 99 xd i hope i do it under 50 hrs

[ulillillia]

Even without dustia, this is doable in 40 hours, potentially 35 for the perfect. Dustia may trim off about 5 hours, making it 35 hours instead, but I don't have data on the effectiveness of the dustia method so I can only guess.

@ulillillia

Well i used dustia to get to lvl 40 it was easy i did it in like 6-10 hrs but its borin to lvl with dustia i prefer just killing everoithing on your way but im happy with lvl 50 bc Van was lvl 49 and now balthier and fran are 50 jaj i think thats enought to play trough the game althou i finished it once lvl as the game goes but u helped me get burning bow jaj thnxs

[enlighteneveryone]

@ulillillia It's probably they're 999999etc because they're suppose to be 1 level above you. Penelo to be the same level as you.

[jayone899]

how did you get to 99 so fast can Someone tell me please

[ulillillia]

It's doable in just 70 hours, 55 with the dustia method mixed in. I've posted a guide on GameFAQs explaining how you get level 99 so fast and early.

[darkitachi492]

@ulillillia why isn't 4 lvl 99 characters enough for yiazmat?

[ulillillia]

If all 3 of the main ones fall and should Yiazmut use cyclone just as you're switching in your emergency reserves, it's game over if these weaker characters are unable to take this big of a hit and it's back to the beginning.  Leveling them up should be easy though - the 25 dead bones in Nabreus Deadlands is an excellent place - just make sure lure is active on someone else.

[wonderlandOGG]

how do u get to lv 99 for begining?

[ulillillia]

See my "how to get level 99 fast & early" series for details. That series isn't the earliest, but it's the fastest and earliest simultaneously. You should have 4 level 99 characters with that route, which is more than enough for everything except Yiazmut. To go even earlier, doable in 70 hours instead of 40, use stages 1 through 5 of that video then use the details (voice only - on the left channel) in the first segment of my "how to get perfect HP and MP" video.

How can you possibly like playing the game this way? xD

But lvl 99 sounds cool.

[766789]

u sounds weird lol :P

[Hipolloz]

Fake !!! 100%

[ulillillia]

This is not a fake. I have other videos proving that I've earned level 99 this early in the game, even showing you how I did it (notice the nearly 100 hours game play?).

[OnyonKnight]

Ulillillia, when Panelo comes around again, her HP and MP will be re-randomized. You can keep loading the game until you get a satisying amout of HP.

[EightDaddy]

Guns do have very low attack power, but they actually ignore 100% of the enemy's defense which makes them about as effective as any other weapon, and very effective against heavily armored enemies like the Tortoises.

[ulillillia]

Well, compare the gun, which does around 100 damage, to the burning bow, which does several thousand. It's only because that gun is extremely weak as the burning bow is something you'd normally see about 60% of the way through the game.

[flak76e]

Amazing that they join with maximim EXP.

I think Penelo joins with max EXP too the next time in Leviathan.

[OnyonKnight]

She joins in level 99.

[ulillillia]

Penelo does not have maximum experience upon getting her permanently in the party.  The other 4 characters, however, do, Ashe included.

[6xdandangp]

No, it's that when Penelo joins your party for the first time, her level = Vaan's level. Balthier and Fran's level is supposed to be Vaan's level + 1, since they can't be over level 99, they just have their exp at max. Just wanted to point that out :)

[ulillillia]

The first time and the second time are the same - check the other video segments and you'll see just that.

[mgs2kx]

guns have low attack but they ignore defense so they're pretty good actually.

[ulillillia]

Ah, but they're also slow, about 60% as fast as a bow attack.
