how do u get 0:00:00 on chocobo?

[Dr.M]

you know in the calm lands and u have 2 get 0:00:00 in the chocobo race 2 get the sun sigil HOW DO U DO IT????????? :O_O:

[tailz]

i believe your in the wrong thread with this one it should be moved to ffx place but get many balloons to do that

[Emily52]

Yeah, get loads of balloons and make sure that hardly any birds hit you.

[redxiiii]

11-15 balloons and I think the least ya can get hit by a bird is 1-2 times, hope this helps!!

[ShivaBlizzard8]

Its nearly impossible and highly frustrating - the closest I ever got was 0:0:05. You get 3 seconds knocked off your time for every balloon you grab, and 3 seconds added for every bird that hits you. So, if it takes you, say 15 seconds to reach the end of the race, you need to grab at least 5 balloons and not get hit by any birds. It usually takes about 15-20 balloons, and its hard. Good luck.

[FFfan]

Just get about 13-15 balloons and make sure that only 1 or 2 birds hit you and if possible none and youll do it. Make sure that you get there in about 34-36 seconds.

[Armisael]

Yeah that!^_^

[fire_of_avalon]

This belongs in the FFX forum.

And I hate that race. So very much.

[SeeDRankLou]

Persistence. The balloons are placed randomly, and eventually you will get the right set of balloons and the chocobo trainer will go a certain way allowing you to get a lot of balloons. You just have to be patient. I've played FFX several time, one time I got the Sun Sigil in about ten tries, another in three, another in forty-five. Just keep at it. If it's annoying you, just stop for a while and try again later.

[Old Manus]

According the official strategy guide:


In order to win the sun sigil, you'll have to complete the race in under 0 seconds! How does this work? Let's imagine you reached the finish line in 35.9 seconds, having touched a bird. This means that the 'interim time' is 38.9 seconds. However, you also caught 13 balloons, so 13 x 3 seconds are deducted from your result. thus, the final time is 0:00 seconds.

P.S. You need to hope you're feeling lucky.
P.P.S. And pray.

This is the single most annoyingly frustrating mini game ever created. I would even say Satan himself left a semen deposit on the blueprints. It needs a mix of Skill & Luck. Without either one, you are doomed. The most important part of this is at the start. If the balloons are not in your favour in the first stretch, you won't get it. It took me 3 days, two controllers and a handful of valium, but on the third day, God created Victory.

I never had any problems with this mini game. I just did what I always did. I rarely get hit by a bird, if I do, it's usually intentional. Am I very skilled at that, or just insanely lucky? My friends say I'm insanely lucky, to describe what they said about me, I'm not sure it's fit to be on forums.

To be fair, it's probably a little from column A and a little from column B. You obviously had this task nailed pretty good, but others, like me struggle like hell with it. For me, I NEVER found the Lightning Dodging difficult. I was able to do it first try every time. Some people call that game Satan. People just have different mental & reactional skills. The next time I'm playing a mastered game, I'll post you my saved file just before I need the Sigil ;)

[Captain Maxx Power]

I managed this mini game on the fourth attempt. On a bad day, and I was tired, and I had a bit of a head cold, and it was dark, and I'd been playing all day.

[Primus Inter Pares]

Firstly, this is the FFX forum. Secondly; hahahahahahahaha, you people had trouble with that?
I didn't find it difficult at all.

I AGREE. It's the most godawful frustrating thing, especially since you know within the first 5 seconds whether the run sucks or not, but you have to finish anyway. I spent MONTHS, and the closest I ever got was about 5 seconds left, at which point I almost threw my television set out the window. I eventually gave up on that, lightening, and the butterflies, but the balloons were by far the worst, because they let you get so CLOSE TO WINNING, but make you fail. :mad2:

[Jpae33]

i got 0:00 once by pure luck. THEN MY MEMORY CARD GOT ERASED!!!

[DeBlayde]

play for hours, like I did, getting every single balloon you possibly can. then, with the intervention of some benevolent god, you may get the score of better than 0.0 and get the sun sigil for Whiney-dus' Caladbolg which isn't as good as the Ascalon really. and is really kinda freaky lookin.

Thats some funny stuff.

[Fireblade13]

I say lightning dodger is harder but the butterfly game gts harder as you put it off. ohwell i don't use those 3 charecters.

[rubah]

butterfly catching is the easiest if you can memorize stuff easily.

[Del Murder]

It was hard and annoying, but man, when I finally got it I felt like I just conquered the world.

[XxSephirothxX]

Apparently I got really lucky or found some secret trick no one else noticed. I only vaguely recall my strategy, but I do remember that getting ahead of the trainer on the first turn was vital. It really wasn't all that hard getting the balloons--just dodging the birds. I think it took me less than 10 tries.

[Ism]

Get at least 12 balloons and no more then 1 bird and its good.

[baldpwnzU]

You just need to do it OVER and Over and Over...I had to do it for my friend "George" cause he got real frustrated...Just keep doing it and finally youll get it.

[Ffgrandmaster]

This is actually simple, I always get it first try Never go for the first ballon let the trainer get it then you can easily get the next 3-5 ballons with the trainer behind you. For the first set of birds if the trainer is in front of you get right behind her and let the birds hit her. To dodge the birds just zig-zag around them

[Dr.M]

thanx a lot u guys

[Dreddz]

I found it quite easy
Of coarse, just get as many ballons as possible
But, dont hold the button down when dodging birds, just tap it and they should skim past you, oh yea, and use the Dpad instead of the joy-stick, helps alot !

[Genysis]

Someone else on this site posted this. If you hold down the L1 & L2 and the R1 & R2 buttons and lightly tab the arrow keys to guide yourself it makes it alot easier... the Chocobo will run much straighter and make smoother turns.

[BahamutGurl]

Don't worry, you're not the only one having trouble getting the sigil:(

[Tanith]

Hate that minigame. Hate it so, so, so much.

For me, it becomes a decision of whether I'd prefer a Sun Sigil, or a TV that hasn't been kicked to the /xxx.gif/xxx.gif/xxx.gif/xxx.gifhouse.

So...yeah. Lol

[Jessweeee♪]

load up the Action Replay!!!

[Tanith]

Does that L1 L2 and R1 R2 thing really work?

[rikkupainegoofydonald]

My little brother got 0:00:00 and he got Sun Sigil, but I did not get 0:00:00 :sad: I am worried

[Tanith]

GUESS WHAT...I just got 0.0.9 on that damn race. One ninth of a second too much. Go figure. Excuse me while I go boil my head now.

[Round_Knight]

Took me about 35 mins to get it i had some anger probs that day

[Dell]

I found myself kicking the TV several times, one day, my PS2 can get that too.

I can't even win. Curse that chocobo, Whay can't he run straight like normal!!I want to kick their ass!!!!!!!!! Stupid mini-games ever, as the games moves, I only get sigil for yuna and wakka only.
I can't find any of blue butterflies except some
I'm not expert in dodging lightning
I'm scared that I might encounter dark aeons if I search for monster arena
I completely lost in the desert
and this mini-game........

Who created this mini-game!!!!?

[mega_tonberry]

I've done it 3 times. But theres a hole in my wall to show how angry I got at it once. It was just luck for me.

[Dell]

Yeah,!!!!!!

I just get sigil for Auron and Rikku.

Kimahri, Lulu, Tidus, Wakka, you're next

[cloud20747]

Begging God to kill the person who created that mini-game will help....
JK
took me forever to get it (3 years ago) I just got Kimari(damn Butterflies) and Lulu's (dodging for hours) and I swear I will not ever do it again!!!!

[Human Devil]

I just had it so that i got all balloons and got hit by no birds. ( I think Khimari's thing is harder to get with the butterflies.)
