I have a question about a few things on which you can bid, like the imp robot or the piece of the airship.Why can`t i get them?I have more gp than the guy with his son.

I think they're not there for you to buy them. Only the piece of Magicite is.

Because they arent meant to be bought. No matter how much money you have, you cant buy them. That's just how the game is.

edit: Yes, all you can buy at the Auction House are a few different relics and two pieces of magicite.

What the hell is the imp robot?

Just what the name says, I suppose...and Imp-shaped robot. Since you cannot buy it in the game, we'll never know what it really does, if anything.

Along with the Imp Robot, you can also bid on (but not purchase) a Talking Chocobo and pieces of the Blackjack.

It would be cool if you get the imp-robot.

I think the imp robot should have been a secret character and all he could use was the imp weapons of course, and of course he'd need some special skill.... what's a good skill for an imp?

I always wanted to win ALL the 1/1200th of the Blackjack so I could have it back. :(

A special skill?Doing more than 9999 damage,that would be cool for an Imp!!!

The "1/1200th of an airship" isn't a piece of an airship; it's a 1/1200 scale model of one. Same case with FFVII's 1/35 Soldiers.

That makes sense, now. >_>

Thank you for crushing my dreams, Dragon Knight. :mad2:

But if you got a lot of 'em, you could take all the little engines out and build another one!

I don't think I've seen the imp robot, honestly. The chocobo and the 1/1200 Airship are the ones the rich bastard with the bratty kid always buys...then two Magicite, Cherub Down, Cure Ring...I think that's it.

Actually go to the auction house and sit through 1,200 Blackjack auctions. Then go to the rich man's house in Jidoor and you'll see that he's rebuilt the Blackjack. Talk to him and you'll find out that now that he has this gigantic airship he's afraid that his wife will find out and he'll be in trouble for spending all of that money. He's desperate to get rid of it and will sell it to you for 10,000,000. Bring 10,000,000 to him and the Blackjack is yours again! :chef:

Nah. That can't possibly be true.......could it.....? I wonder what would would happen if you had infinite money?

No matter how much money you have, you cant buy them.

lolol rumor

I have a feeling the development team was too lazy to actually implement something after 1200 times. I don't know why you'd want the Blackjack back anyway, Darryl's airship is clearly the superior model. :tongue:

But yeah, once you get Zoneseek, Titan, and Palidor (I think?) from the auction house, there's really no point in going back.

And also, you dont get Titan from the Auction House. There isnt even a Titan Magicite in the game.

Palidor's on the beach at the house where you start the WoR when you go back with the airship.
Sasquatch
10-18-2005, 04:21 PM
Yeah, Solitary Island. You can only get Golem and Zoneseek, and those only right before the Floating Continent.

I've really never seen the Imp Robot. Is it not in certain versions?

The Imp Robot only appears in the World of Balance. It's the WoB equivalent of the 1/1200 Airship.

That´s wrong!The Imp Robot appears in WoR,too!
TheAbominatrix

You can get the Magicite at any time in the game, and yes the Imp Robot is in all versions of the game.

Whatever world period the item is shown in (by which I mean the unpurchasable novelties) is the only time it's shown. If Imp Robot is in WoB, it isnt in WoR, and vice versa. I cant remember which era it appears in, though.
