Everyone I know who has played FFX-2 hasn't beat Trema, and has levels of 99. The first time I fought Trema, my highest level was 73, my other two were 72 and 70, and I humbled him. I beat him, with HP to spare. I am wondering, has anyone beat him at a level before 73 without the Iron Duke?
I entered Via Infinito at level 35, got to the bottom at level 48 and defeated Trema at level 52. No Iron Duke or Adamatite used.
Ah... I have been humbled... extremely...
i beat him at like level 85 without iron duke. it took like 5 turns.
Darkness? um... can you tell me how ya beat him, cuz for the life of me i just can't, and it pisses me off to no end! like, if you could just give me the jist of what you did, and i could kinda work your mastery into my method? that'd be cookie swanky kewl! ;)Quote:

I seem to remember having a Gunner with Cat Nip (not very original, but necessary for my current level), an Alchemist, and a Dark Knight/Mascot. I don't remember the Garment Grids I had equipped, or which girl had which DS. I seem to recall attempting this battle numerous times, and the main reason for this was Paragon's Genesis. I didn't want to Bribe him as I already had Cat Nip and didn't wish to go overboard on the cheapness factor. I think Yuna was in Mascot because I used Moogle Regenja (Regen + Haste) then switched to Dark Knight for Darkness, Rikku was throwing out Phoenix Downs and X-Potions all over the place and Paine used Trigger Happy whenever she got into yellow health (which was right after Rikku used a Phoenix Down). I may have had 2 Alchemists, I'm not sure. All I remember is there was a lot of Hastes cast and a lot of Potions used. And I mean a lot of Potions.
I mean I was level 99, had all the DS mastered all in the first game, and I tried this other way I found somewhere that states you can take away all his MP in two rounds or some such nonsense, and maybe it's true, but I couldn't get a turn in edgewise, and he kicked my @$$ from here to kingdom come.... Maybe I'm just not fast enough... I tried him about 7 times before I finally just said screw to hell... I wanted to get that 100% completion in my first game, and I would have too, if I could beat this twerpy old b@$t@rd. Grr... I'll keep trying I guess.... :mad: hell, it took me like 10 tries before I beat FF8's Omega.... STILL TO THIS DAY have not beat FF7's Emerald OR Ruby.... CAN'T beat FF9's Ozma.... Haven't beat X's Nemesis.... God, I'm pathetic. Maybe I should stop trying huh? :(
Taking away his MP would work also, but it won't prevent him casting Meteor and other strong magicks. Soul Springs, Target MP and Pilfer MP are the best ways to lower it. It's a shame Rasp (FFVI) hasn't made a comeback, that would be very useful here. As for the other bosses, they're not for discussion here, but there are plenty of very reliable methods you can find on the internet. Have a browse through the other forums to find some answers, or visit www.gamefaqs.com.
Ah, I'll figure the others out eventually... but I do really wanna beat Trema.... I dont even think it's cuz of the 100% completion thing anymore... it's pride. Anywho, thanks for your help, you've been swell. And any other tidbits you throw at me about other bosses (not here, of course) would be so very appreciated. Toodles. :greenie:
I just tried this Via Infinito thing last night for the first time. I got to level 13 (I think) when I ran into som giant red drake that was bouncing around. Killed Paine in one hit (alchemist), then Rikku in the next hit (gun mage), so only Yuna (dark knight) was left. He must of lightened up a bit because it took 4 hits to kill her. :rolleyes2
Maybe I should level up a bit? I would of thought 74, 72 and 71 would be high enough?
All the Elder Drakes can be avoided through timing your run properly or by activating all the switches linked to the platforms, depending on the particular lay out of the level. They have lots of HP, Auto-Protect, huge Str and they instantly kill anyone who casts magic on them. They are best avoided until you are at Lv 99 or have Mascot, Cat Nip or Iron Duke.
I started VI at level 30ish this time. I'm currently in the 80th cloister or so, my levels are in the late 60s. I'll see if I can beat him without iron duke equipped, but I kinda want to use it.
I'm confused... don't you get the iron duke for beating trema? :confused:
Level 11 hahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahahhaha u make me laugh
