Use Libra or equip the bangle for auto-Libra.
Maximum HP route on License Board:

Nah.. it's boring as hell to level up just with Vaan.Quote:

hahahah I wonder what percentage of people playing this game did just that. That dino scared the poopy out of me- it should be noted that that dino is pretty much the only baddie you will be able to encounter that is way too difficult for the likely lvl u'd be at at the time. I was scared it was going to keep on happening.Quote:

I also recommend trying to have all your characters hightail it to their Quickenings on the License Board; every Quickening gives your characters another Mist Charge, with the second Charge doubling your MP and then your third one tripling your the total of your first Charge.
you should do augments first on the license board and head straight for the HP+ and Battle Lore augments
Dont be cheap and overpower your characters with Deathbringers.
Its much funner when your not focusing on building up your characters but focusing on the storyline and when it comes to hard battles just using your head and good strategy to beat it.
I did the HP first, also added Horology and Poach, which got me much loot. Then the rest of the Augments. :D
Does anyone know how to learn spells? I know thats a stupid question but I want to know.
You have to buy the spells from shops or merchants, and you also have to spend your License Points to get the proper license to use the spell.
Spells become available based on:
A) location
B) storyline...God, I wish I would have known this one before staggering through bloody Nabudis...
Werewolves = death early on. As well as Entites.
DO NOT CAST MAGIC NEAR ENTITES OR ELEMENTALS. YOU WILL GET YOUR ASS HANDED TO YOU IF YOU'RE LOWER THAN LEVEL FORTY.
...at least I did. Apparently, Vox was not the correct solution to Silence...
Make that level 50 for entitesQuote:

Spend money on the Monographies. It's worth every gil!!!
Same for Poach but watch it: Poach gets you good loot at the expense of Experience
I wonder what the difference to this game is compared to other Final Fantasy. Hmm what to the people in the beginners hall have to say about this.
FFXII requires grinding 5-6 levels between missions. Other FF games do not, AFAIK
Biggest difference is the battle system. It plays more like an MMORPG rather than a traditional Final Fantasy.Quote:

I did this for 15min went up 2 levels and did a 115 combo to boot, at 50+ the loot they drop casts protect or shield or health every now and then.:love:

Yeah FF11 takes way too long. I played it for about four months in time.
Oh! Gravity, in this game, bases itself off of MAX HP, not current, so watch it. It still can kill you.
Yeah Demi or gravity which ever is better when based on HP. Take FF8 GF Demi oblous
haha, no kidding...i did that at the beginning and i didnt have libra or anything and decided hmmmmm...i wonder what happens if i just steal fr...OMG HES ATTACKING ME!!Quote:
