1) Don't die
2) Use potions when your hit points get low
Zidane: There is an ability called Auto-Regen, once you get that ability on all your characters it defeats the purpose of a white mage.
Steal with Zidane at every opportunity. Later on you'll get a skill that will take advantage of this. Also take the time to engage yourself in the Chocobo side quest during the game rather than at the end. The items you can find whilst playing via the Chocobo really help out. O, and make sure you spend time mastering the abilities available to you, and equip as many +stat equipments (that's speed, strength, spirit and magic) just before you level up.
Do absolutely everything. Read everything in detail. Don't let any little thing slip. Learn every ability you can. When running low on money, come back on the forums and ask for the little trick :D
Advice:
- Talk to every creature you meet
- Search every inch of the world
- Always stock up on items
- Be sure to equip each character with his/ her strongest equipment (the game can do this for you, but I recommend that you do it yourself)
- Check their individual abilities
Steal from bosses until they have nothing left,
Get Quina in Qu's Marsh before Grizumluke's Grotto,
Equip strongest weapons except in that one place,:D
Don't sell an ites until you learn all you can learn from it,
Try to fight a lot of battles, unless you're really weak, so you can get a lot of gil,
when you have Quina in your party catch frogs in Qu's marsh,
when you have enough money and items synth a lot of the jewels you use to summon to make your summons stronger.
Complete it in 12 hours else you miss out on the Excalibur II
If possible, buy every weapon and armor to learn it's abilities. Also, do the entire Chocobo hot and cold sidequest so you can get awesome treasure
have patience cuz you'll want tokeep equipment til you learned all of it and sometimes patience is fleeting and later o remember DO NOT EVER SELL THE OCTAGON ROD CUZ YOU'LL NEVER GET IT AGAIN
Light the candle.
That's pretty good advice. xDQuote:
