I dont remember anything but Bravery, Faith, and Bubble being for sell, no techniks.
I bought 3 bubble belts and got one for beating antlion.
No more marks to hunt, but will check the airship.. I had looked around all the shops and no more magic was being sold.
I had hesitated on that accessory, and its expensive.... I might get one.
B party is almost as high as A party tho, so I guess I better start progressing the story soon.
Hmm nothing but phoenix downs, potions, antidotes, gyshal, and teleport stones on the airship, but i got a quest from a clerk there.
And throat wolf blood drops far far too uncommonly to be faster than couerl pelts so far that I see.
In a 60 chain of wolves, I got 9 bloods, where I would get about 70 pelts...
Pelts are like 400x70, where bloods are 9x1200.
Although I did steal two prime pelts from a giant wolf.
-
Didn't you see Shyphon on the airship ? Maybe you only see it after Archades then. Get the sisters quest, it is easy and gives you Ring of Regen :D
That big Wolf is a rare game :D:D:D
-
The accessory is fun to use.. glad it only effects items, not spells.
Threw a remedy on a wolf in the rift.. and a billion status effects come up on him :)
Also erm.. this may be a rather dumb question, but is there a way to change your party leader mid battle(when you can't substitute him out)
ie.. something is targeting him and you cant rearrange the party to get the leader you want, is there another way to change the party leader besides that?
-
KO' your leader ? Have a Phoenix Down ready
FFXII does not let you change characters when they are being targeted :(
-
ah ok thanks anyway
(SPOILER)That was pretty low what they did to the holy mountain..... and infusing one's body with that junky ore. /sighs.. off to the phon coast.
-
You got the jerk back, didnt you ? And soon Vayne will get what's coming to him too :D
-
Phon Coast, was poor again, but after a run of panthers and new weapons from Phon, I decided to play in the Felwood.... very...very nice selling stuff.
Also went around completing all the marks.... the deadlands is a little rough.
So finally I'm all decked out with Phon Coast Hunter camp gear, and bought my last needed bubble belt before I lost the ability to by gaining paragon of justice(/sighs).... not sure why a riskbreaker can buy them but a paragon can't.
(SPOILER)The darkened fragment from the holy mountain acoloyte still poses questions I will have to look into.... as does the steam powered floating grass in the morgansomething highwaste.... Killed a Shield Wyrm up in deadlands and got a liver. That carrot sure wasn't a carrot... Sledgehammer + Orichalum(sp?) dagger + silent shot = monsters don't stand a chance.... :)
Lots of small mini quests it seems that aren't talked about alot in the main storyline.. like the darkened fragment from the holy mountain, or someone commenting on a dragon near the mountain, or the things the empire science fellow says in the caravan camp about the floating plants....
More exploring to do... so little time.... Explore/sidequest... or main story... decisions..... decisions. Oh well, need sleep.
Also is it bad if my file reads.. I think 55hours.. and I started playing this on the night of the 24th?
:)
-
The floating plants will yield you an esper, Exodus, I think :D
You will need a chocobo too, not just the steam gates.
-
The mad scientist and his shadow demon just left the capital city...
maybe its time to do some sidequests, not sure how far I am into the game.
And you're pretty active on here for answering questions, thanks.
-
about 60% I think. Giruvegan is next, then the tower. You need to be around level 60 for the tower so you may want to use this time to do some hunts and level up a bit.
Try the "International Man of Mistery" hunt. Great fun :D
-
5 hunts down...
Not buying armor yet, as I think Phon coast is pretty close, but I did pick up ninja gear and thief hat. Probably going to be killing thru the feywood to get a little cash, then off to the south of it. Level 40-43 now... my B team is being used more than my A team... guess thats bad.
Some of the hunts are amusing, but Firaga doesn't seem as strong as Id hoped. Or maybe the monsters were just resistant. Shield wyrms are fun to kill and so many in that region... Two of the hunts are in a place I walked into and got almost killed in 5 seconds though.. necrohol of Nabunis(sp?).. I walked in there on my way to the coast during the game, and well... it wasn't pretty getting hit for 900~ with protect on... 4 of them hasted, and fran made it to the exit with 250 life.
Lindwyrm was an endurance fight.. very powerful, but not altogether overwealming.. Restore is annoying. Darksteel was a pushover.. I'm not sure what I did wrong, I thought he was supposed to be strong, but the highest he hit me for was 200 with protect, and he died very quickly. Overseer went down fast as well, but his damage output is insane... tore threw that little guy and he was dead when the overseer was at like 90%... The viera dragon monster wasn't too bad.. not sure what to do with the dragon scale though. (SPOILER)Belito was rather rough til slow landed on the headhunter, and I started killing the others.. their damage output when all four are there is pretty hefty. So now I'm a high guardian, and the only hunts left are ancient man of mystery, the deathscythe, and a golem both in necrohol... and I doubt I can take the man of mystery... from what he sounds like.
Hmm.. to explore or to the feywood...
-
i'm in the exact spot you're at as far as the hunts go, and i'm debating the same exact thing. what do you guys think, i got like 130 grand, should i fight some more and get 120 more grand for that canopic jar in the bazaar? or should i just upgrade my weapons/armor/spells when i get the chance
-
:) weeeeeeee
Knight of the Round clan rank.
70minutes of earning it.... Sheesh Man of Mystery is tough in round 2.
He's a wimp in round 1.. but in round 2 this is just not so...
(SPOILER)So.... beat him the first time after watching him fall on his head flying to the bridge.. :) and he wasn't too bad. stole a few nice things too. So I follow him down into the mines.... and well I notice these enemies are like level 55-60 and I'm 42-43.... So even tho its rough and slow, I clear my way to our friend Gilgamesh and save. I head in.... and find that no status effects work on gilgamesh, and very few work on his dog... so I spend a few minutes killing the dog... and somehow gilgamesh just kinda laid back and rested while his dog tanked my whole team... somehow when I got it down to 10% life, it just didnt want to die after dying decently quick til then... so I was forced to use a quickening chain..... only a 6 hitter, but it killed him. Then came the fun party, at some times it would take all 3 people healing to keep the tank alive on Gilgamesh, and then sometimes he'd just 5hit the tank and kill him anyway. He hits for 1400 with protect on a dragon armored Basch with 7000 life.... and for 2900 on a Ninja/Thief geared Vaan with 7400 life.... So overall I think Basch died at least 20 times, and Penelo about 10, and Vaan about 10, and Ashe about 5.... It went ok on the steadyness til around 40%, and it started to slow up a bit, as he started to get meaner it seemed, or maybe it was me trying to steal. Got both items, and got him down to about 15% and it stalled there for a few minutes as he kinda liked to 4hit the tank a lot there for a while... and it takes time to get protectga, decoy, curaga, haste, and other spells back up. But after 10-15minutes killing the dog, and 55minutes on Gilga, yep he died. Only thing I regret is I can't come back when I'm 99 and teach him a little lesson. He stole his sword back.. so not sure how the hunt will be completed... and I'm saved outside his room... too tired to tunnel back out of the mines now.
So... Ancient Man of Mystery... 43, 43, 43, 43, 42, 42.. and it was insanely long... :) Yes those 42s were my healers.... yes that did make things rather fun and if I lost I was going to level both of them.
Oh and giruvegan was also troubling.. a two year old could have drawn a better map than the one in game.....
sorry if it offended anyone on the map comment... tired I guess.
*edit*
Oh and during battle, to change leader its just pressing the up/down arrow.... how silly of my to miss it.
-
You get the hunt even without the sword.
Aye the map at the great Crystal s*cks.
Oooo. Why didn't I think of that! Up arrow FTW
I will go back at level 99 to nab that show off :D:D:D
-
The cat ear hood has a massive speed bonus, but my characters don't seem to move all that much faster...
and hmm..
Two hunts left for now.. both in Necrohol... to brave its 900(with Protect) hitting minions or to venture elsewhere..
(SPOILER)
The upper areas of the Highwaste perhaps, or the Barheim passage that I got the key for a while back..., or to find out about the "corruptor" that was mentioned at the holy mountain and I got a stone from an acolyte...
Or to venture into Zertinan, or back to ...... that dreaded giruvegan.. as there seemed to be more paths.. tho its very confusing.
And talk of a wyrm chasing airships...
Or to simply continue and head over to find this tower far away...
