Let's Play Final Fantasy IX #017 - Get Rich Quick Scheme

In this episode, we finally learn why Dagger wanted to escape from Alexandria. Fortunately, I have better things to do with my free time like making lots of money. To reiterate how the "trick" works:

Wrist (130)
+ Steepled Hat (260)
+ Synthesis (1000)
= Cotton Robe (1390)

Resale Value (2000)
- Cotton Robe (1390)
= Profit (610)

Special thanks for Hix on my forums for suggesting to buy 99 Wrists back at Dali, instead of only what I had the money for Wrists AND Steepled Hats at the time.

Thanks for watching!

I have a question, Hcbailly. I just started playing FF9 over the weekend, intending to beat it though I've owned it for years now. I've reached roughly this point in the game, but I forgot to buy wrists in Dali. So my question is: being a good 4 hours into the game, do you think it would be worth it to start over and buy the wrists in Dali to perform the cotton robe trick, or should I just press on?

@dwab321 Just keep going. You will have another opportunity on Disc 2.

MATH !? NOOOOOOOOOOOO

I love Dragoons/Dragon Knights. Yeah, you have to spend a turn before you land for double damage...but you're IN THE AIR. Nothing can hit you, you're completely immune to damage of any form, and you can sit in the back row with heavy armor for the times when you're not in the air. It's like using a Monk's Focus/Build Up abilities, but having damage immunity.

Wow, "I'm 37 I'm not that old" was the most obscure Monty Python reference you have made so far.
