once you get to the last part before you actually go and beat the game, alot of stuff opens up around the game, I know you can't get Hastega until that point. Finish the last area (before the end) then you can prob buy it.

no you can, it's all about finding them, with some of them this is not an easy task, I am only missing the last esper (zodiark?) and some esp Ultima were a pain in the ass the find.

Off the top of my head I couldn't give you directions......

Why bother with Deathbringer when you can shine with Save The Queen or Defender?

[RedRum]

where can u get these swords? I know u can get the STQ from a Mob Hunt and thats bout it but i dnt know anything about the Defender. I would say they bother wit the DB is because it makes the game alot easier until they are able to get to the point where they are able to get the Defender or the STQ.

It's the best easy to get one handed sword, and you can use it with a shield.

But the greatswords have high attack and they at least have 8 evasion, some of them even have 25-50.

[Raistlin]

The Defender, when you can get it (after Draklor's) has very high attack for when you can get it and also 35 evasion. With it, Vaan has higher attack AND higher evasion than if he was using the best one-handed weapon I have (Francisca) and the best shield I have (Crystal Shield).

What's a db? I'm surprise you have a Genji Shield.

I would rather take the one handed sword and shield, with augments and the gauntlets accessory, it is a pretty good deal.

Also, the Deathbringer has a KO proc, and even though it doesn't really work much, it is a nice surprise sometimes when you are mobbed and get off a one-hit kill you weren't expecting.

db is death bringer and i stole the genji shield from gilgamesh(mob hunt from montblonc).

Even when you have Ultima Blade, Excalibur, Tournesol and Wyrmhero Blade, you would still prefer one-handed sword?

[remnant1]

i would only have vaan use 2h.thats just the way i am.my main charecter always has the highest lvl and the best stuff.everyone else would have the deathbringer.i am curently in the middle of aquiring the sagitaurius for fran.:choc:

No, but unlike those, the Deathbringer is easy to get, and it is helpful when you are questing to get the final weapons.

Well, that's okay.
I never really bother with 1H weapon, because I want to save some money. :p


For 1H weapon, I prefer Axe/Hammer over Sword.

I try to have an even spread of steady and burst damage in each group, I don't know how much it matters, though.

Where do I get Excalibur? I know where it is at, but not the exact location or how to get there.

Great Crystal:


- Teleport to the Great Crystal, from there (Facing Scorpio Gate), take the right path and open Scorpio Gate Switch.
- Go through Scorpio Gate to reach Teleporter IX. Teleport to X.
- Take the path to Teleporter XX.
- Facing Sagittarius 1st Gate, take the left path, you'll be in platform with mobs, continue on to the next platform and open Sagittarius Switch.
- Go back to Teleporter XX, and enter through Sagittarius 2nd Gate.
- You'll reach Teleporter XII, teleport to Teleporter XIV.
- There are two path here, one will lead to Leo Switch, one will lead to mob place. Go through Leo Gate by opening Leo Switch (Don't worry, Leo Gate is located in Leo Switch area), get a treasure, return to XIV.
- Take the other path, The first two area you come across is just one-way area, so no need to worry, the third part is difficult (two paths), if you reach a dead-end area with treasure chest, that where the Excalibur is, if not return, and take another part.
- The treasure is random, equip Diamond Armlet. If you didn't get it on your first try, rezone three area and return.
- You can know that you'll be getting an Excalibur by looking at the treasure, after you've touched the treasure, you'll get something and the treasure dissapear, but if you touched the treasure (And get something) and the treasure didn't dissapear, touch it for Excalibur.

Thanks! :quina:

[atlanteay]

so how do you get deathbringer? my friend is only at giruvegan right now and he told me he has deathbringer already.

[remnant1]

check archades and balfohiem.if that doesnt work,keep in mind that some merchants in parts of the game you dint think was important anymore somtimes have new wepons & other things.a good example of this is the merchant in the south bank of the nebra river in eastersands.he sold me a staff with 80 somting atk power.

[atlanteay]

i'm at the ridorana cataract and there's no deathbringer in Balfonheim. I'll check again even thought i'm 90% sure.

[GooeyToast]

Yaknow, there's a way to get as many Deathbringers as you want for free in the Barheim Passage. All it requires is a little patience, and the completion of the "Dalmasca Desert Bloom" and "Marauder in the Mine" hunts.

Look under the Barheim Sidequest section.

yea you buy hastega before you board the bauhumut(sp) to kill Vayne

[six underground]

you can *steal* the Deathbringer from the rare game Ithuno (?) after getting the Barheim Key (in the BArheim passage) :) just go around in the new areas that open up
