The Sending?
Still not a sending.
Does 'good guess' mean you're close to the answer? I'n that case, I'll guess the defeat of Sin by Braska.
Woe to the conqueror - He and his guardians were meant to be heathens, that would cause some disruption to Yevon (the conqueror).
An act of contrition - He was made High Summoner by the contrite Yevonites.
The onyl suitable music
Would be a lacrimosa - Sad event
A good guess is not necessarily close, but well reasoned.
It's not the defeat of Sin by Braska.
HintIt's an event we witness.
When Tidus begun his journey?
It's nothing to do with the start of Tidus' journey.
Aurons death???
Woe to the conquorer - auron made ht long journey and died.
An act of contrition - him trying to fight yunalesca.
The only suitable music
Would be a lacrimosa - aurons death was sad and had sad music playing.
It's not Auron's demise.
When you go to the lake on the Shoopuf. Is it the series of events there?
Kimahri's battle with Biran and Yenke on Gagazet.
Woe to the conquorer - Biran conquered Kimahri?
An act of contrition - Biran & Yenke offer to stop the party's persuers.
The only suitable music
Would be a lacrimosa - Almost all the Ronso are killed by Seymour shortly afterwards.
No to both.
gonna see if literally translating this will help . . .
Woe to the conquorer - the victor of a fight is sad because he/she has won
An act of contrition - fought to repent for a sin he/she has committed
The only suitable music - the only suitable music :D
Would be a lacrimosa - as i understand it this is a sad piece of music, and the final work of mozart committed to paper
and we know it's an event . . .
is it when cid destroys home with the airship?
he "conquers" the fiends and guado inside, though it saddens him to do so. possibly the sin he has committed is kidnapping summoners to stop their pilgrimage
It's not the destruction of Home, although your interpretations of lines are accurate.
HintOne line needs to be interpreted even more literally.
Final Aeon/Sin fights
Woe to the conquorer - the victor of a fight is sad because he/she has won->summoner dies, final aeon becomes sin
An act of contrition - fought to repent for a sin he/she has committed->final aeon kills sins, then becomes him.
The only suitable music - the only suitable music
Would be a lacrimosa - as i understand it this is a sad piece of music, and the final work of mozart committed to paper
yeh it is probably the "sin" bit which needs to be taken literally, and that sounds like a rather accurate guess
It's not the defeat of Sin by Final Aeons, although it's a good guess.
And it was a different line that I was referring to.
When fighting Yojimbo (well it's Lulu's first summoner to guard, Lady Ginnem or something? can't remember her exact name) in the Cavern of the Stolen Fayth?
Maybe it's the last line, Lacrimosa (I think I mentioned the link between Lacrimosa and Seymour before), but it's an event, so... when Jyscal exiled Seymour and his mother to Baaj?
It's not the fight against Yojimbo.Quote:

is it that a lacrimosa IS actually played while we watch it?
Is it anything to do with the name of the song or the songs actual content?
Lacrymosa dies illa,
qua resurget ex favilla,
judicandus hom reus.
Huis ergo, parce, Deus.
Pie Jesu Domine, dona eis requiem.
What tears on that day when there will rise from the ashes the guilty man to be judged. Therefore, O God, spare him. Gentle Jesus, grant them rest.
those are the lyrics anyway, I'll go out on a limb and Say Yuna's almost wedding to Seymour, what with the funeral requiem which I'm sure Yuna would have preffered.:p
Is it the battle against Sinspawn Gui in Mushroom Rock?Quote:
Woe to the conquorer
An act of contrition
The only suitable music
Would be a lacrimosa
I don't recall music during this event, but a Lacrimosa would be appropriate for a very specific reason.Quote:
Originally Posted by d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x

It's not the Sinspawn Gui fight.Quote:

The Lacrimosa, literally is a part of the Dies Irae sequence of the Requiem Mass. This portion of music is often used in films, TV, etc, to accompany a dark, frightening, or tragic event (basically plagiarising Wikipedia here :cool:) Might the answer be Operation Mi'ihen?
It's not related to Jecht.Quote:

The Attack by Sin/Jecht on Kilika

Hmm, judgement day...
I'm going to guess that it might be the confrontation between the heros and Yunalesca. This includes the ghosts images of Auron, Braska and Jecht.
It's not the attack on Kilika nor the fight against Yunalesca.
And as for the meaning of Lacrimosa, I'd go with the second one.
When Tidus fades away?
Is it when Yuna is,for lack of a better word,killing her aeons?
The Final Aeon getting it
Most events involving Seymour could fit the bill, especially your last battle with him. Is that the answer, or if not, is it anything to do with Seymour?Quote:

But you're getting close.
I see you're still up to your uber awesome riddles again BG. X3
battle with the final seymour ghost?
is it the FMV we see of young seymour crying just before/just after his mum becomes anima (can't remember if that FMV is set before or after sed event)
Thanks. Although I may have made this one too diffcult. :pQuote:

Well, in that case... is it when Yuna is crying in Lake Macalania and Tidus consoles her?
Really? How long has this one been going?Quote:

It's a long shot, and it's probably wrong.

nope to all of them
is it the dog in besaid that teaches valefor energy blast?
sometimes i wonder am i overlooked --> easy to miss
my existance only needed for one simple move --> the move being energy blast
i wish i could be bigger instead of being small --> it is jus a dog after all
but one day they'll find i'm stronger then them --> not so sure on this, maybe cos energy blast is stronger.
Kimahri's Overdrives?
sometimes i wonder am i overlooked - you learn an OD from a monster - can't remember its name, I must have overlooked it? :D
my existance only needed for one simple move - The OD in question
i wish i could be bigger instead of being small - It is a small monster?
but one day they'll find i'm stronger then them - There is a Monster Arena boss with a similar sprite
I think devil may be right though.
nope and nope sorry:)
you're getting closer though not answer wise but you're understanding the riddle better
Yojimbo's dog, Daigoro
Is it one of the Magus sisters? Umm I can't remeber their names. Cindy thats the one.
nope
and not quite
If it's a Magus Sister, it'd have to be Mindy. She's the the smallest Aeon, but her Passado packs a whallop.
yes bg is right sorry licence you didn't get the right sister:p
Cool. :)
First was graphite
Second was diamond
Third was buckyballs
Is this the fourth?
Well those are three forms of carbon, the 4th may be a carbon nanotube, which I have no clue how this would relate to FFX
I'm guessing it either has to do with armor or weapons (like a blitzball).
First was graphite - Onyx Amror
Second was diamond - Diamond Armor
Third was buckyballs - Platinum Armor
Is this the fourth? - (Lonsdaleite?) Crystal Armor
It can't be chronological order, since diamond has been known of since ancient times, and I'm sure it's been around longer than graphite.
maybe its rarity o cost
Your chemistry knowledge serves you well, but it's not a carbon nanotube.Quote:

The only thing that comes to mind is Dark Matter.
For some strange reason i think it has to do with aeons?
anthracite staff or another weapon with the stonetouch or stonestrike ability?
It isn't, but you're using the right approach here.Quote:

HintHowever, the answer is two words long.
then what about petrify grenades?
No.
Tetra Elemental? 4th can be translated into tetra.
Electro Marble/Lightning Marble/Lightning Gem ?
Candle of life?xx
No, but you're half right.Quote:

we might as well start naming off all of the equipment that starts with tetra lol
Yeah...
Tetra Bangle
I don't know how the carbon things would really tie into a random piece of armor.
Tetra Armlet
No.Quote:

You are both half right.
So its obviously an Elemntal
Fire Elemental
Yes it is; but not that one.
Did someone already say Yellow Element?
Great, now we're just gonna guess through the elementals.
I'll say Black Element.
Blue Element
Gold Element, since gold is an earthy mineralish thingy :D
White Element is the only one left.
this is what i was going to guess, it is probably correct considering in the game you encounter the gold element fourth... (yellow, white, red, gold)Quote:

Ah, that makes sense.
darn it! soooo close lol
good job tho!
Well, here goes...
Malady makes for fine transaction
Recipient wanting for puissant action
Victors' man of perspicacity a namesake
Blue, fanged, the greatest potential of all
Sorry it sounds disjointed, I couldn't figure out how to make the last two lines rhyme.
Do you mean percipiency?Quote:

Sorry, I spelt it wrong, it's Perspicacity.
Malady (Illness) makes for fine transaction
Recipient wanting for puissant (Powerful) action
Victors' man of perspicacity (Keen Perception) a namesake
Blue, fanged, the greatest potential of all (sounds like a Ronso)
Is it Ronso Rages? You can actually have Kimahri learn a whole bunch from rival Ronso.
You are very much on the right track, BG.
If you want a small clue, 'Ailment' would be a better word to put in place of 'Illness' in your summary.
Overdrive Modes
Malady makes for fine transaction - Victim or Sufferer
Recipient wanting for puissant action - Stoic
Victors' man of perspicacity a namesake - Victor (The underlined words are a red herring :cool:)
Blue, fanged, the greatest potential of all - Hero, maybe
I'm going to guess Stone Breath, although Firo's guess and explanation sounds better.
uhh im guessing a Malboro??
seems off topic i know since everyone is guessing different things lol
None correct yet, although Firo is extremely close.
Kimarhi's Mighty Guard
bad breath skill of kimahri
i want to say rikku's hazard shell, because she mixes two poison fangs.
Malady makes for fine transaction - Poison fang needed
Recipient wanting for puissant action - id take puissant as potent... and seeing as hazard shell casts statuses and damage, makes it potent.... err....
Victors' man of perspicacity a namesake - heh.
Blue, fanged, the greatest potential of all - potential in the mixed items, fanged is self explanatory... err.. did i mention heh?
probably wrong but id scream if i was right and didn't put my guess in!
Entrust skill? Since that skill can give another person someone else's override gauge.
If not that then I'm going with Kimahri's Lancet.
None right yet, sorry. There is a reference to Kimahri in the riddle, but the answer is not unique to him, the reference can help with finding the answer, however.
Tactician mode?
Shiny is correct!
The answer is the Tactician Overdrive mode.
Malady makes for fine transaction - Inflicting a neg. status on an enemy fills the bar up.
Recipient wanting for puissant action - You want to fill the bar up to unleash an Overdrive, obviously.
Victors' man of perspicacity a namesake - This is just trying to show the word 'Tactician'.
Blue, fanged, the greatest potential of all - Kimahri is the character who can learn the Overdrive mode the soonest, he only has to inflict statuses 60 times, the others all have to do around 75-100 (depending on the character.).
It wasn't exactly a well written riddle or anything, but hey.
Shiny's up.
What a clever riddle.
I am offensive
I am defensive
I can surpass
I can amass
NEMESIS!!
Yu yevon?
I am offensive - controls sin to attack spira
I am defensive - remains in it's "armour" i.e sin
I can surpass - overcomes (surpasses) the final aeon to control it
I can amass - yet still "amasses" legions of followers
Nah.Quote:

maybe can take a defensive stance? is it neslug from the monster arena?
No to both questions.
is it that ...(ugh whats it called) morphing blob thing at macalania?
Spheremorph? No.
Bribe skill?
I am offensive - defeats opponents
I am defensive - gets them the heck away from ya
I can surpass - wins the battle
I can amass - amass items
Nope.Quote:

No, not really.Quote:
I can surpass - wins the battle
No, but something is amassed.Quote:
I can amass - amass items
Masamune.
I am offensive - Break Damage Limit
I am defensive - Counter-Attack
I can surpass - First Strike? (not sure about this one)
I can amass - Triple Overdrive
is it evade and counter?
I am offensive --> hence counter
I am defensive --> evades, therefore negating all damage
I can surpass --> dunno bout this
I can amass --> if you have dancer on it "amasses" the OD gauge
Nope.Quote:

No.Quote:

is the triple OD right for amass? if so i'm going to guess it's the ultimate AP booster weapons u can get from ultima buster (triple AP, triple OD, OD->AP)
PS. w00t! 100 pages! this is without a doubt the most successful thread i've made. this is a definging moment in my career :D now let's get it to 200 people! hehe

HintSurpass = Exceed
I've got a feeling it's an Aeon that can break damage limit.
I'll go with Yojimbo as it can amass wealth, but I'm not sure if he can break damage limit.
No, but you are very close with part of your explanation.
Magus Sisters
Nope. The aeon part wasn't what I was talking about.
Could be a Celestial Weapon. Gil automatically makes me think of Rikku, so I'll go with Godhand; it has Break Damage Limit, Triple Overdrive, Double AP, and Gillionaire.
No, it isn't a celestial weapon. Again, you are very close with part of your explanation.
Dark Matter?
I am offensive -Break Damage Limit (takes x30)
I am defensive - 99 will give you ribbon in the overseas version I thinks
I can surpass - exceeds 9999 damage (12Kish right?)
I can amass - dunno explaination here
No.Quote:

You have the right idea, but still haven't gotten the answer.Quote:

How bout Tonberry (or Don)
Nope.
Big HintIt's a customization on armor and weapons.
Ummm
maybe Break HP or Break MP limit
or Break Damage Limit?
I am offensive -Break Damage LimitQuote:
Originally Posted by hplvr

I can surpass - Exceeds the limit on HP, MP and Damage
I can amass - Gradually rises the HP, MP and Damage of a character based on their stats
Technically, those are all correct. I was, however, looking for the answer: Break Limit Ability or Break Limit Customization. Whatever, since you said all it entails its close enough. You're turn!
cool, all the threads have been compressed and we now have 200 pages, we can get venus sigil!!! :D

NopeQuote:

Crests compared to sigils?
Sigils? Not sure if that's the same answer as the above poster was trying to say. xD
Firo Volonde got it, it was Sigils
I am better than the other- They are better than Sigils
Used to make powerful things- Used to make Legendary Weapons
I am more useful than the other- More useful than Sigils
But Im harder to obtain- Extremely Hard to Obtain
Your turn!
What?
Shiny said sigils, and I'm pretty sure 'sigils' aren't better than 'sigils. And anyway, neither crests or sigils are better or more useful, they both just unlock a stage in a CW, the crest are just easier to obtain.
Technically a crest is better in my opinion. Reason? You only need a crest to initially power up a Celestial Weapon, and therefore allowing certain aeons to break damage limits. And as said before, crests are far more easily obtainable
I think lines 1 and 3 refers to how Sigils unlock the best abilities (BDL, Triple Overdrive etc.) while the Crest only activate a Double Overdrive slot.
Okay, here's mine:
I'm a monster unsightly
With appendages many
If you reduce my HP
I'll lose my extremities
I may crush you consistently
But don't be uneasy
For without my posse
You've a certain victory
Pretty easy, but I'm not in the mood to think up a super-hard one.
