Oops, I forgot to mention it earlier... but you can buy the capture weapons back from the monster arena owner. They're really cheap, I'll check how much in a sec, and edit.

EDIT: 9075 each, and no problem.

You can't sell Ultimate Weapons. And Capture Weapons are incredibly cheap, as been mentioned.

The best way to get AP is to use Omega Ruins or Inside Sin. If you are lucky, you can pick up some very nice AP weapons (Triple AP, Overdrive --> AP, Triple Overdrive) from the Ruins enemies. If you can't fight those off yet, then use the Zanarkand enemies until you are ready. Or try Fiend catching.

The best place that I realise to level up in the begining towards the middle of that game is:

1) 1 fighting the cacture in the desert
2) Fight machina in the Bridge at Bevelle

The 2 places give much more experience that any other place before or after that.

The easiest and fastest way...
Equiped an overdrive to Ap weapon and go to the Cavern of the Stolen fayth. Set your overdrive to loner. Get in a battle with a Magic Urn. Have your two other party members escape. And continually press triangle for infinite Ap.
Because...
Loner makes overdrive fill every turn you fight alone.
Overdrive to Ap makes overdrive become AP. The hardest part is costimizing for an Overdrive to AP weapon.

If you are at the beginning of the game, the only place you can get AP is the beginning. If you are at Mi'ihen, then the only place to get AP that won't kill you is Mi'ihen. There's nothing else you can do.

Why did you restart? Everyone in this thread TOLD you how to continue. You can't even sell Ultimate Weapons; what just because you acted like an idiot and sold your weapons without thinking about it, that automatically makes you think that you have to start over? GET OVER IT, GROW A SPINE AND START FROM YOUR FIRST SAVE FILE THAT YOU ALREADY DID.

What is up with you man it seems like everytime you respond to something you are so negitive. He has to list every reason he restarted? Look there are good places to train and bad places to train and tricks to trainning. My advice is always plow through the easy part of the game and get to cavern of the stolen fayth with Overdrive to Ap weapons and loner.

Now, now, now, there's no need to be snide. I'm not flaming you, I'm flaming your ideals. Big difference.

Negativity is of the utmost importance. If something bad happens, then you are always ready.

Yes, he does, or at least a good one. Kimahri being weak isn't exactly a good one, but I'll concede that if he likes Kimahri, he should go ahead and re-level him, althought it doesn't take that much effort to find a Teleport Sphere/Return Sphere/Friend Sphere/level grind.

I have a question. If I use entrust on someone with an overdrive-->ap weapon, will that also contribute to the ap?

I don't really understand why you restarted. If your characters were weak then you just travel back a bit and level up then continue when you feel ready. Also when you are only at Mi'ihen there isn't anywhere to level up so you should just get on with the game.

Mech leader can be found in Mt. Gagazet or how ever you spell it. you take the cloudy mirror to Macalania woods and it turns into a crestial mirror or what eever im not good with names lol so anyways after you get the crestial mirrior, you can get all the good weapons

Though, I always get the ultimate weapons just as a matter of course, you don't need any of them to beat Omega...certainly not Yuna's Nirvana.

If i'm interpreting your garbled post correctly, you are looking for a trick to gaining AP. At the monster arena there is a creation (can't remember which of the three categories) that is based off of a Cactuar...I think it's Cactuar King. Anyway, you want to get some armor customized with triple overdrive and overdrive => AP (make sure to have a lot of Pheonix Downs), and I think you need to use provoke on the cactuar with whoever you want to level up.

ok that sounds like a good idear ill try it. I no u dont have 2 have it 2 deafeat omega weapon but im thinking yuna with holy could do alot of damage as her magic is very strong.

anyway i went 2 the macalania woods with the cloudy mirro and it has not change do i have 2 do summit der? Oh and sorry 4 my really confusing posts earlier i was just really tired thats all.

Master Vivi
08-21-2006, 02:32 PM
You should get the Magus Sisters... they are pretty beastly one of there attacks on one of the sisters did like 30k damage

also you should get everyone's ultimate weapon. the aeons will do crazy damage and you should be able to beat omega in no time

08-21-2006, 03:00 PM
For a good AP gaining weapon, fight One-Eye on the monster arena. (created from capturing one of every flying "one-eye" type creatures.) One-Eye, in the monster arena, drops weapons with Triple AP often. Add overdrive-->ap, and triple overdrive through customizations, and you have the ultimate AP gaining weapon.

Then there's further tricks, using overdrives types (comrade, stoic, etc) while fighting different enemies, which give you crazy ap. there have been countless threads and posts made on this in this in this forum.......

At the entrance of Macalania (coming from Thunder Plains) there should be a woman with her son. If you talk to her she will mention that she is supposed to be meeting her husband at that spot.

If you exit to the right (toward the calm lands) and exit again (still in Macalania) on the side path where there is a small alcove you will see a man stnading there.

Talk to him and choose the correct option. Now go back to the first screen and talk to woman again. She will say something to the effect of "now my son is missing."

Now go up the "magical path" that goes above the forest floor. You will see an open path where the boy is investigating some...thing. Examine it, and your cloudy mirror will be transformed into the celestial mirror. This spot is also where you use the crests and sigils to power up the ultimate weapons.

Hope that does the trick. In addition, if you can't find this or any other info you may need in this forum, Gamafaqs has very in-depth faqs for everything FF.

You want endgame ap the go in the arena and fight shinryu over and over again. In the beginning I trained in the calmlands until everyone had their own section of the sphere grid filled and Tidus had all the abilities as yuna did as far as curing hp and status conditions yes I am a lvl nerd

are you serious? I would consider you a lvl. newbie. Come back after you have cleared all locks and non. max sphere nodes from the grid, gotten 255 in all stats. for all characters, and have (as one possible course of action) something like 50,000 HP...then we can start discussing your nerd credentials. ;)

there is no such ting as 50,000hp using the standard sphere grid.
I leave empty nodes empty cause im not cheap
I have every sphere that means something filled other than luck cause it was a waste of my orbs

:rolleyes2 Calm down, dude. I never yelled at you. My whole post is intended to be light-hearted...so take it easy, bro.

I don't have the Int. version so I only have one shpere grid, and with it one can get HP a lot higher than 50,000 and still have 255 in all stats with relatively low luck.

My question is, why do you want to stay around for hours and hourse leveling up in the begining of the game anyway. If people can finish the game without spear grid, then it's pretty damn easy to just go through the game without having to hang around to level up. And if ya want to get good levels fast, then just go for AP trick later.

The game Cannot be completed without sphere grid. if you want to complete it 100% - You need alot of the sphere Grid completed to do that but even to just defeat every boss you need it filled in. you cannot go through the game taking off 100 every turn....


What do you need to make an Overdrive to AP weapon? I didn't know there was such a thing :confused:

Yeah there is a weapon that does Overdrive > Ap it's a very helpfull weapon if you want to get loads of Ap fast.... i recommend it allot
