Cieth Stones

[CimminyCricket]

Cieth (sp?) Stones are pretty addicting. I may not like this game all that much, but I really enjoy doing these missions. Is there a super rare item that I get for doing these things? Which are some that I should pay special attention to for helpful items?

You can check out my incomplete missions guide (http://home.eyesonff.com/final-fantasy-xiii-site-content-project/130774-missions.html) (which I had to go searching for, as it was tucked away in the Site Contributions forum), which I believe has all the rewards. Off the top of my head, some notable, rare items from later missions are the Growth Egg (doubles CP gained) and Genji Glove (removes damage cap).

Awesome! Thanks a bunch. I'm just past the area with the stones so I'm going to have to back track, but it's by far my favourite part of the game.

Yeah, Gran Pulse is where the game finally opens up. The missions are definitely my favourite part of that game, even though I haven't completed them all.

I believe some of them can only be done in the post game. In any case, the final stage of the Crystarium unlocks in the post game so that's the best time to try to finish them all.
