FFTA2: lv2 VS Cinquleur (lv99) - Cornered Abuse

[niallisninja]

another easy cornered setup is to use a ranger's mirror item elixir which reduces to single digits without killing if it hits, i know this isn't the best setup as it is expensive if you aren't cheating and is hard to do if you are boosting the blue mage's evasion but it is relatively quick and easy to set up

[34shamune]

how to download action replay??

[MrLi9ht]

Will this strat work on every fight? I love low level challenges like this.

[Reminiscable]

But... You didn't kill the spectators!

[TheSwiftsole]

Has anybody else noticed that they switched up two of the names in this quest? The Blue Mage is named Nware, and the Black Mage is named Bliu in this quest, but it's supposed to be the other way around. Looks like they waited got sloppy and messed up once they got to "the Final Quest."

[OmegaDeman]

Very nice. Time to work on my blue mage.

[Superlightningblade]

That little Time Mage quad you have is so cute =3

[555vidman]

dudes i got 3 ultima weps from an action and i deafeated flow sand using it without dieing yay ^^

[vvvcv]

just amazing

[robotetanus]

I find it hard to believe that a lvl 2 has all those blue magic abilities mastered considering that you would have to be in at least a dozen battles just to attain them.

Also, it''s easier to just use bloodprice ultima, isn't it?  First turn kills using a bow?

[TheSwordieBrom]

@robotetanus flee from battles after you learned the desired blue mage abilities i suppose thats the case to get them w/o lvling up

[mirorlink]

I don't get why people think the Kings of Cinquleur is such a hard quest. I'm not trying to insult anyone or start a flame war etc., but I thought the last cinqueleur quest was easy with characters around 55-65. Then again, I had some pretty cheap class combinations xD. A double casting summoner with blood price and a chameleon robe(absorbs holy) along with an assassin/sniper wielding a bow with ultima masher and blood price using mp efficiency as privilege is pretty...awesome ;D

[gamerboy244]

@mirorlink I feel the same way. i had a viera sniper/assassin with halve mp and ultima masher and got the mp efficiency privilege. that, combined with my time mage using hastega, and a couple of other units just crippling the mages with silence/disable, ended up making that battle a slaughtering.

ps: my units where between 50 and 55 back then

[AscendedBeyond]

kick ass im gonna try this

[FFXlable]

What mission is this i didn't get this one yet

[TheBloppins]

when i fought them solo without the 1 hit KO skills i did the white king around level40-ish on all my guys, wasnt really to hard although i still have yet to beat the final story line boss and im like in my 60s and 70s on all my main guys so i cant really fight all five yet

[BazookaChipmunk]

to those who love Blue Mages, i have started a group for them on facebook, simply Blue Mages, NOT blue mage guild, different group. But we will have fun discussions on exicitng things in the discussion sections. Join. Please.

[notoracism0]

how do you get tht cornered attack?

[Rand0mAsian]

its from those shell turtle things, its also known as limit glove

[hanabobean]

oh my stars that is AWSME

i can't believe thatr technique you have

you are SOOOOOO AWSME

[Vdominus]

AWESOME! Technique technique!

Wot do you get when you finish the tourney?

[BazookaChipmunk]

is there an easy way to get blue mages to learn stuff, I just got the game, I am addicted, but my blue mage won't learn anything (he has learn as his passive)

[pokepuns]

Using Beastmasters help slightly.

[HeavenDan]

cool my video looking

[Arcanavii]

The solution: Cap base evasion at 49.

Really, whose bright idea was it to allow units to have evasion higher than 50?

[whoopdewoot]

@MultiWhore;

This is not the Jylland Cup, this is the Final Quest, in which you finish all 300 Missions and then you get into a stupidly uber Tourney.

[wingdamn]

wait, so what is the Five Kings? i beat that mission already

[Brentendo11]

half of the effort is getting the blue mage abilities anyway! if you cant be bothered to get the abilities properly then either dont have a blue mage and/or stop whining about the "horrible ai"

[MultiWhore]

is this the jylland cup?

[XxXprimagensuXxX]

LOL When I first got this game I had the idea for: green mage/assassin red mage/elementalist Then I fought Cinquleur and i was like WTF stole my idea My clan is now: Blue Mage/ Seer-counter+double sword red mage/elementalist-blood price+regain green mage/assasin-concentation+evad­e magick Sage/white mage (stat growth is better)-Turbo Mp+magick counter Black mage/Time mage-sheildbearer+evade magick Trickster/defender+halve mp+strike back All Lv 99 beat them really easy ^^

[GhaosArt]

hahaha

[ManutdChiz1]

wats AI

[chowbling]

Artificial Intelligence....mainly used for computers to think!

[Character189]

wow, i didnt think there was anyone more stupid mthan my sis.

[uberfayt2]

is there a way to level up in radom battles, i mean not in a quest ?

[sim288]

Great vid! and well played battle. What music is this?

[Brentendo11]

one of the battle music from this game

dunno which missions tho

[Kenzami70]

Lol nice, i made an exact replica (as close as i could) of the 5 cinquiler team and fought them and won...shows that AI are really stupid =D

[jewishlilboy]

thanks guys for the info,i already have my summoner up there,working on a red mage and illusionist as well.

[darklink223456]

how did you get azure tears?

[FurryZurr]

Brightmoon Tor 3.

[jewishlilboy]

what would be the most powerful class in this game,as far as damage goes??from the magic type jobs(black mage,summoner,archanist)??

[TheLastLiving1]

Doublecasted (red mage ability) Summon spells are the best for magic damage.

[wildaug2]

@TheLastLiving1 i agree

[nickofmillertime]

ok nu mous as you know have the highest magic stat in the game so there illusionist and scholars have the best magick growth rate but everybodys favorite side skill is magic frenzy duel wield so it would be seer (hume)

[Archamber560]

LMAO - The Slaughter!!!!

good game btw, i see, Quicken in FFTA already proof horrible imba. See the freak black mage(moogle) =.=, yea horrible AI.

[PKRockin7]

Wow, they were Massacred!

[zuser]

How the hell did you learn Cornered?

Having an angle-ring/reraise on you and get hit by it? or... something else? please exdplain! D:

[Bonechill734]

You can only get Cornered from an Admantoise using Limit Glove with one-digit HP. You need Reraise.

[henryzheng1]

hello anyone plz ^ ^?

[connoli100]

a monster has to hit you with its ability then you obtain it but there are a select few

[henryzheng1]

hey can someone help me!!!!!!how do u even get a blue mage abilty's even there's no wepon tht can help ?(the learn abilty is useless because it doesn't do anything)

[zuser]

you have to equip the learn ability to your status stuff, when a monster hits you with one of their abilities BAM you learn it, notice that not all monster abilities is learnable...

which makes me wonder how the hell did he get all those abilities, controlling a beast and casting its spell on my blue mage somehow doesn't work... and making monsters freely using their abilities on my blue mage doesn't work since they won't attack him... annoying...

[sim288]

Very nice display!

[g7tty]

i have 999999999gp and 9999cp

[g7tty]

cheat codes he use them

[g7tty]

wat the fuck how he do that

[Joker4577]

what tournament is this one

[kuybytkj]

its the last mission

[dsplayerjdp]

which monster gives you the cornered move, and for some reason mky blue mage isnt learnin notin

[tried42long]

Shelling (the turtle guys)

refer to this guide for Blue Mage details:

db (dot) gamefaqs (dot) com/portable/ds/file/final_fan­tasy_tactics_a2_blue_a (dot) txt

[ManganimeFreak01]

Did you give your Blue mage the learn ability? One of the Swords you get via Bazaar give the blue mage the learn ability, without it, the blue mage is pretty much useless.

[dsplayerjdp]

ya i know that im not an idiot

[MilleniumSpam]

Now let's see how well you do on the next fights specially on the one with the tonberry kings

[WolfUrameshi]

Holy mother of...

The front row has:

The back row has:

(P) Halve MP

Front row has some combination of Reverie Shield and Templar Shield.

All Nu Mou have Bone Plate to absorb dark magick.

Everyone has Angel Ring.

[carlosthebeaner]

how did u dp it wats the name of thwe weapon to do the attack pummel prwatever its called

[BlueCrystalGem]

oh god, this is cheap, 4 quickens hahah....

[bonehead9545]

how do you make a bluemage learn abilities?

[CurryandRice157]

when you get the bluemage 'learn' ability, whenever you get hit with certain monster attacks, it will be added into ure abilities

[MasterSprite]

Can you tell me the equipment the ninja uses for the 65 evasion?

[MasterSprite]

Silly me sorry its in the description I didn't see it before I put this comment in.

[Brtluchon]

The code you gave just change the actual unit lvl into the one we've enter, without modifying stats. Is that normal ?

[tried42long]

You're supposed to change the levels of your clan in order to lower the clan level average so that you can recruit actual level 2 units. Then, change the levels of your original clan members back to their original levels.

This way, you are changing the coding as little as possible.

[ChaosBerSerKer25]

When you say clan levels do you mean their title status or the individual units? Because the lowest I could get is level 6 reducing my clan's average level.

[tried42long]

Clan level = average of all levels in your clan.

In any case, the only time you can recruit level 2 units is right after the 3rd or 4th story mission. By keeping certain units out of battle and firing off other units, you can bring your clan level down to level 2 and recruit level 2 units. Then, keep those level 2 units out of battle until you need them.

[BlackRedOrangeFire]

could u just tell me the all ability code cuz i cant find it and if it is all skills learned when i try to start it it doesnt work. so could u just tell me the all ability code??? please.. ty

[BlackRedOrangeFire]

Could You tell me the all ability code??? cus when i go on that web it says it no longer there.

[tried42long]

it's still there

gamefaqs,com/boards/genmessage­,php?board=937330&topic=440518­94

replace commas (there are 2) with periods and remove spaces (there are 2)

[evil99019]

hey where can I get all the action replay codes for this game?

every time I try to do the inf gold code the game crashes, and I just don't dare try any further with action replays...

[evil99019]

I was shouting HOLY FUCK at the screen every time I see someone automatically revived and someone died of 999 damage.

[jeffy367]

can you also add the game id

[tried42long]

As far as I know, it's not needed.

[jeffy367]

can you tell me where you got the cheats

[tried42long]

-level = xx-

94000130 FFFB0000

B21D5020 00000000

2000001a 000000XX

D2000000 00000000

Change the "XX" to the hexadecimal number corresponding to decimal number of the level you want. Select the unit whose level you want to change in the unit customizations menu. Press Select.

For abilities, I just used the "all abilities code", found here:

gamefaqs,com/boards/genmessage­,php?board=937330&topic=440518­94 (replace commas with periods)

[jeffy367]

sorry but i don't get

hexadecimal numbers,

but can you tell me how to make them lv 3

[tried42long]

decimal lvl 3 = hexadecimal 3

replace xx with "03"

[jumpingdoubles]

is that for action replay?

[evil99019]

he used action replay to get the level, skills and items probably

[shorinryu4]

o thx

[shorinryu4]

LOL... what is this quest anyway

[tried42long]

It's called "The Final Quest"

[0R0CHIK]

my faborite combo seer/black mage with mp turbo and a fusiler with ether shell the two together are the maximum

[Datafiles123]

now...im on the 4th battle in the final quest, and im being owned by the tonberries..

i hav 2 questions: what is the reward for completing the quest? and a good tactic for the 4th battle.

pleased for any answers.

[tried42long]

There actually is no reward for finishing this quest besides bragging rights. The game goes straight to credits without giving you a chance to save. If you want to keep all your experience, Flee from the battle right when you are about to win the 5th battle.

[Datafiles123]

rly? then then final quest kinda wastes ur time O_o

[tried42long]

Tonberries WILL KO a few clanmates before you get a chance to move, so give Angel Rings to at least all of your front liners. When selecting your party during the 1st battle, place a Viera with Phoenix 6th on the field. It doesn't matter where to place it, just make sure it's the last member to go on the field.

KO the Juggler first. Next, go after the Tonberries one at a time. It is preferable to over 25% for the final blow to each Tonberry so that their Critical: Quicken do not activate.

[Kingofgumbo]

This is awsome!

[PivotReporter]

A good combo for the Five Kings (not this quest) is Moogle Nite's Ultima Charge with Fusilier's range, or Gladiator's Ultima Sword with Cannoneer's range. (Good attack + Ultima + long range = WIN)

Throw in some Hunter/Assasins with Ultima Shot/Masher and you can really dominate. Especially if you've got a Grimoire Stone.

[gusgusPosc]

ultima is based on magic on attack so its (Good Magic Stat + Ultima + long range = win)

[GreatSilverDragon]

For me, the quick way to do the kings of Cinquleur quest chain, is to has a Seeq Ranger spam Mirror X potions with item lore as the passive on every mission.

The only hard one to do, is the last one, (givin I did this as my clan was in its low forties) where the white king is lv 88, and can instantly KO the Ranger before he can Mirror X potion him to low health.

[nivramx]

So far my favorite job combo is Blue Mage/Seer. Illusion?Seer just kills the fun and all the enemy units in couple of turns..LOL! Blue Mage with all Strikeback/Counter/Bonecrusher and Dual Wield, you got yourself a beast!

[MAZZ0Murder]

Which monster has cornered?

[tried42long]

Shelling (The turtle guys)

[MAZZ0Murder]

Thanks! I still have a lot of Blue Magic to get, but I don't really have a beastmaster yet...

[LyleAngelo93]

Bet the crowds all like "Holy Crap!"

[Datafiles123]

wich battle is this? O.o

[tried42long]

It's called "The Final Quest"

[AdaMtehMaN]

it isnt bad AI...its just abuse of bad game design but even then i wouldnt call it bad game design...there are loopholes in all games. finding them is what makes it fun

for instance...i just beat the white king today by using rush and sending him over a cliff...he took 642 damage for falling 5 or 6 tiles.

[Yuvenk]

can i ask you one more thing?

can you do this mission with more higher level ninja, like 10,13,22,38.

Or i can say more simply, Ninja with more than 100 Hp

[tried42long]

Cornered only works when HP is below 10. You can try it with higher level units, but it's harder to put your unit into Cornered state.

The highest level possible for a Hume with HP below 100 is level 6 with Illusionist stat bases raised as an Illusionist, Ninja, or Black Mage. However, the chances for a level 6 Hume with less than 100HP under those conditions is 1.2%.

Usually, a Ninja reaches 99HP at level 5 if it has Ninja stat bases and raised as a Ninja.

[DukeofGrandeour]

hey, you, yea, you, lemme ask you sumthin...

why put so much energy into A2 if u KNOW it has crappy AI? Are u bashing it? Or making a fools outta Squenix and the FF series as a whole? Please answer this.....Thanks....

[tried42long]

True, this is my way of making fun of Square Enix's incompetence to make balanced games. Maybe this video will reach Square Enix, and they'll spend a bit more resources on development next time.

But if that was purely the case, I wouldn't have posted this video on YouTube. I also want to share tactics with those interested.

And, I wouldn't call it putting "so much energy into A2". Everyone tries to think of strategies in a game. I just happen to make videos out of my strategies.

[DukeofGrandeour]

...and inform folks, eh? i see... thanks, and u r right FFTA2 does have shitty AI , im playin FFT for da PSP & dem enemies r EVIL! they dont give any weakened character a chance...anywho, keep up the gud work, friend...

[Kajoshiki]

Um, sir? you`re forgeting the white monk`s revive brings back an ally with 1 HP....so this is used to abuse cornered with a higher level unit.

[tried42long]

I have to say, this is astonishing information for me. I've never before bothered with White Monk's Revive, nor have I been told that Revive brings back units with 1 HP.

For resource efficiency, using a level 2 is still better because the setup only takes one move (Self-Destruct + Angel Ring, instead of Self-Destruct + Revive)..

However, Self-Destruct + Revive is far better in a practical sense. So, props to you for finding this combo out.

[Kajoshiki]

Yeah I haven`t played this game in a while....but I remember my team was pretty ass-kicking.... I have a lot more combos and things you can do with different units, Glad my suggestion was of help to you.

In case you`re wandering what units I used... I don`t remember all of them but I remember the ones I liked the most....I used to make 2-men cells that worked well together for example:

[Kajoshiki]

Paladin/Blue mage with a Ninja/seer:

Paladin used to bespellbound/slowed/mighty guarded/regened/shelled/protec­ted While spellbound/hasted ninja covered by the paladin would invade enemy territory and proceed to take everyone down.....as you can imagine the paladin would shrug off hits like no tomorrow.

[spud1239]

totally awesome

[Yuvenk]

what's this mission law?

what if the mission law is having Hp low than 200?

[tried42long]

The mission law is "No Scions".

[Yuvenk]

weird, i've never do this mission before?

the only one mission that have cinquleur battle is the Five Kings Mission.

I've got 297 mission,

only minus an Earnest Delight Mission, The Five Kings Mission, and that Bangaa vs Nu Mou last Mission.

Am i missing this one?

Are you using AR to get make this mission?

[tried42long]

If you only have 297, you haven't unlocked this mission yet.

[Yuvenk]

what's this mission name?

[tried42long]

"The Final Quest"

Not that the name helps you in anyway. Don't ask. It's better for you to find out yourself.

[shadowslave4]

how did you get AR codes? my AR doesn't have the game in its list. plz tell me the code for the game plz

[LyfHighwind]

search google for a site, i use neoseeker, and yes it has codes for FFTA2 there

[impmast3r]

your FFTA2 vids are great :D

[DValkyr]

Epic win.

Shooot, this is soo amazing.

Shame it can only be done for several battles till the Ninja's reraise HP is not single digit because he keeps levelling. Then it gets real hard to use.

[cieloeos]

Haha, rdj suggested this?

[rdj522]

Well, not EXACTLY this. My idea involved Cover and a Mirror Elixir.

This works much better, though.

[Cpryd001]

As abusive as that was, it probably took you like 45 minutes to play that battle. :|

With great abuse comes... oh MY GOD IM SO BORED!

[tried42long]

The fastforwarded parts are only 4 times the normal speed. The battle actually took 6 minutes and 23 seconds. Calculated it yourself if you don't believe me.
