Ah wait...just found the formula but is this possible on disc 1?
Sure, all you need is Gameshark or Action Replay.
Yes, it's possible.
Dragon Fangs from T-Rexaurs (Training Centre, forest on Balamb) or Grendels (outside G-Garden).
Pulse Ammo from Energy Crystals from Elnoyle cards.
Adamantine from Minotaur card.
It IS possible without cheating. You need to win a lot of tough card games and refine the cards. Search for a tut on gamefaqs.
EDIT: Damn beaten to it while I was posting!
Which other card games?
Just shut it off, but in my little stretch here i farmed 20 Elenoyle (sp?) cards and just got Seifer and Diablos cards too.
What other card games do i need to win for this?
Just Elnoyle cards. I think Cid and Kadowaki play them regularly.
But don't you also need the 1st Issue of Weapons Monthly as well?
Nope. All you need is the Gil and the ingredients.
So I assume you get the limit break aswell. That's the whole point of it right, to get the 16 hit limit break nice and early?
Yes, the Lionheart gunblade gives Squall access to all four finishing moves.
...You need that 1st weapons monthly mag....But it will take a while to get to...just don't make the same mistake as my friend and lose all his cards...
Trying to get a Dragon Fang from the T-Rexaurs...will they drop eventually or do you have to mug to get them?
It's a dropped item between Lv20 and Lv29. Grendels drop them between Lv1 and Lv29.
For the third time in this thread, it is possible. You don't need the magazine, just the materials and gil.
and the money. ;)
Praying to Fairy Godmother help too. That's how I get mine. :bigsmile:
I wasn't sure up till now as to whether Lion Heart would give you just Lion Heart or Fated Circle and Blasting Zone as well.
I've always wondered if getting Lion Heart straight from Revolver would only get you Lion Heart and that first one (I suck, I forgot the name), which would mean you'd have a higher chance of getting Lion Heart after Renzokuken.
But I suppose I was wrong to assume that?
Yup. Lionheart unlocks all the finishing moves, so if you were to upgrade from the Revolver straight to the Lionheart, you would get them all.
Yes, I'm sure.
thanks, but what abilities do i need to get the materials...(in case u havent guessed i havent played in a LONG time lol)
Mug, Card Mod and Ammo-RF.
ok cheers
Okay Endless, since you dont need the magazine, where do you go to get it reforged?
any junkshop in any town that has one. or use the GF ability Junkshop
The junk shops dont offer new weapons unless you read the respective magazine.
Junk Shops offer whatever weapons you have the materials for. Viewing the magazine just makes them appear before you get the materials, so you know what to look for. If you already know what you need, you don't need the magazine.
Oh I didnt know that.
don't worry, everybody knows nothing about something.
Hey guys this wont work without the magazine.
Endless is right.
If you have the required items then the weapon in question will appear in the junk shop list, without the magazine.
You can get all of the final weapons except for Irvine's in disc 1. For Irvine you need Moon Stones which aren't available until disc 3(outside of cheating).
Also, you don't need to play cards to get the Energy Crystals for the Pulse ammo. Farming Elnoyle cards can take a ridiculous amount of time. If you don't want to do that, you can go forward in the game until you get to Laguna Sequence 2. In that sequence, Elastoids that are around level 30(IIRC...it may just be 20.) carry Laser Cannons that can be mugged. These will refine into pulse ammo. I am positive they carry them, but I don't remember the level that they are obtainable. It is at least level 20.
ok i just started the game over and just got my seed rank.
anyway could you do a small walkthrough for how to get the lionheart?
Try post 3.
ok:p so the earliest point u can get it in the game is just after the tomb of the unknown king ?
how do you even get the lionheart and where do you get it from???
thanks i will give it a try
KK cheers endless
Regarding the Minotaur card, if there are players who collect rare cards and don't want to mod it, then try getting Adamantine from the Adamantoises which appear somewhere along the beaches outside of Delling City. (if I'm not mistaken)
I've played in forever, though. Hopefully, I'm not providing any inaccurate info.
You can win back any modded or missed cards on Disc 4, provided you complete the CC Club sidequest before the end of disc 3.
i cant find a grendel anywhere!! there is none near the galbadia garden so is there a specific place i can find them?
I have all the required items and went to a junk shop but the lionheart was not displayed =S
How many of each item is needed? Are you sure the magazine is not needed?
I'm near the end of disk 3 on the file that I am trying this with and I didn't pick up the magazine from the lunar pandora.
I have about 22 dragon fangs, 10 adamantine and 10 pulse ammo
Oh and 1mil+ gil
You need 2 more Pulse Ammo.
Oh oki thanks. I think I know how to get them ^^
I have gotten the lionheart on disc 1 several times already (and posted about half a year ago how to do so); the earliest you can get the Lionheart is just after the Timber part, when you get off the train, but you can wait about another 15 min or so and get it after the Laguna dream #2, provided you have mug with diablos and your avr. pt lvl is about 30 (or 20 and you have way too much time on your hands). Here's an outline of the materials and how to get them on disc 1.
Dragon Fang x4 : you can easily get them from T-Rexaur either in the training center or in the forests outside blamb, they normally drop 6 of them (only lvl 20-29)
Adamantine x1 : This is pretty simple, you can either get this the painful way later in the game, or just after the the Timber part.
1. I say painful because you have to refine the minotaur card for 10 of them... not only does that waste a perfectly good card, you can also get it before this.
2. The way I prefer is to just kill the adamantoises outside od Dollet on the beach (it's near the forest where Mr. monkey is (I think)) and you'll most likely have some trouble if your lvls are somewhat low (I think 20-29 should drop them farely well, but I'm not too sure)
Pulse Ammo x12 : 2 ways to do this as well, first is the excruciatingly painful way, second is somewhat easier, especially if you like get your GFs to learn useful abilities... like mug.
1. The card way is, as mentioned before, consists of winning 20 Elnoyle cards, moding them into 2 energy crystals, and then moding those onto 20 Pulse Ammo, after about 5 hrs of playing cards, I only had about 12 so unless you have very good luck with people using them and you can stand playing Triple Triad for hours, this is not a method for you.
2. you'll need mug (Diablos...200AP) and an average lvl of over 20 (preferably 30+) with Squall, Selphie and Quistis; fight the Elastoids and mug them, remember that you need at least 3 Laser Canons. (I have actually also stolen a laser canon from one of those saw monsters (Belhemel) but the chance of getting one from them is too low)
You'll finally need 1200 gil... self explanatory.
also, guide to getting Punishment before Fire cavern!
you need: turtle shell x1, Star Fragment x2, Chef's knife x1
this is pretty straight forward and all you need is Quizacotle's Card and card mod abilities, card for getting some competitive cards, and and card mod to get the items:
Step 0.5: Get Card and Card mod
step 1: getting some good cards
have someone with card, and know how much a monster can take until it's low enough to be carded easily (use scan if you have to)
Target monsters:
Bite bugs These bugs will be carded into an Elvoret card (boss card) about 5% of the time, maybe a bit less;
Caterchipillar They will get carded into Trauma cards every now and then (another boss card!)
T-Rexaur if you feel like it, you can also get some T-Rexaur cards, and possibly get the rare Shumi Tribe card (another boss-lvl card!) but it's really not very necessary.
also, you can go back to garden and win some cards like MiniMog and Quistis, but that's just overkill and takes away form the fun... right?
Step 3: Getting the ingredients!
turtle shell x1 3 adamantoise cards are moded into one of these
Chef's Knife x1 1 Tonbery or tonbery king cards mods into one of these
Star Fragment x2 3 Iron giant cards into one of these, so you'll need to win 6 Iron Giant cards for 2.
The 8 screws that you also need are too easy to get from cards, you start with a gezard card (whatever it's called) and all you need is 1 more... everyone uses them, pretty much.
you'll also need 1000 gil, you start with 5000 so this really shouldn't be a problem
Note (Important!)
once you have met ALL requirements for any weapon (which does NOT include the weapons magazine) it will automatically be added to the menu in the ANY junk shop. That's how it works.
and thanks if you actually read all that.
Note (Important!)
With the lionheart you'll be getting all Rensokuken finishing moves, and with the punishment you'll gain fated circle and Blasting Zone on top of Rough Divide.
... There should be a sticky for all the 'secrets' to getting stuff earlier than you would normally, because these threads are just going to be popping up whenever the last gets old.
Grendels can be found in the little forest before galbadia garden where you trigger laguna's second dream. Just run along the mountain side while in the forest and you will fight grendels everytime.Quote:
