Hey.Can you guys help me out?I'm heading into the henne mines and i keep dying.What level should i be on?
You should be around the same level the foes are in that area. Use Libra to find out. :choc:
The level where you don't keep dying.
level 99 if you want to be sure
You can't get any better advice than that.Quote:

Regardless, you should be around 10-15 level when you enter Henne Mines for the first time.
? If my memory is correct, henne mines is after Leviathan unless my memory is bad. People have been posting often here that they can't beat the leviathan at level 10-15. And theres a few more story events between that and Henne.....
If you are reentering the Henne mines for the optional areas.... then I would suggest at least 40.
I think you have to be around level 30 or so to make it in those mines.
the first time you should be 10-15 level.
Second should be 35-40 level.
Best advice.Quote:

Be at level 37 because my Vann is at level and I haven't talk to Kytes about where did Migelo and Penelo went!
you kinda ruined the game for yourself by doing that, unless you like having it easy.Quote:

What would be the best place to level up?
thnks for all the replys
Make sure you're not wandering into areas you aren't supposed to be yet. If you're on the right track, just level up a bit more :p.
Oh crap...you meant the Henne Mines--then I must apologize because i thought you said Lhusu Mines.
Well then, level everyone up 5 more levels and then proceed. Don't fight the ghost horses because they will most likely kill you.
Do you have updated equipment for everyone? If not, I would upgrade everyone's weapons/armor.
I would also level your guys up by a few levels.
You're talking about the Lhusu Mines.Quote:

Lhusu Mines is earlier in the game before the bridge.
Henne Mines is right after you visit the wood for the first time.
There is also a 3rd section of the Lhusu Mines (site 11) that has considerably tougher foes than the 2nd section of it.
As I stated above, you likely wouldn't make it through the 2nd part of the Henne Mines at that level. The foes there will likely have OHKO potential at that level.Quote:

Yeah, I think the bats are around level 64 at the entrance of Henne Mines, coming from Feywood.
I used those to get some quick levels at ~42 :D. They're not too hard if you gang up on them one at a time.
Yes, you should be a little higher, but you can enter site 11 at the late 30s and early 40s and survive there. Henne is a little tougher, but not insanely tougher... just more packs of enemies in larger numbers. It's not easy by a long shot.Quote:

I would wager you could do the same in Henne Mines with great care and strategy. I believe I was in the upper 40s or early 50s there when I went there. The only real stopping factor is having the 10 "beings under your control"
To get through it at all, I would recommend high 40s, low 50s... to get through it easily, without constant reviving, and a good possibility of game over, i'd recommend high 50s/low 60s :)
With the "at least" 40 recommendation I was merely saying that for the low level people who'd probably come on here and say you can get zodiark at level 25 :)
Not trying to be annoying, but it is possible at lower levels, it just has greater risk. The biggest risk is "leech" imo.
I had a terribly hard time deeper in the mines closer to the "being" when there were no bats, and the ghost type enemies came out. I eventually went out and leveled a bit, but I'd wager it is possible to survive in there, as I did somewhat highly inefficiently at that level unless my memory is bad.
True.Quote:

You definitely should have 3 bowline sashes (IMMUNE: confuse) and 3 rubber suits (IMMUNE: thunder). The flan-based foes there spam thundaga and put confusion on your guys alot as well. The ghost-type enemies inflict confusion on your guys, too. First-line prevention from those is best. When in the area where the flan-based foes are, watch out for the ghost-type rare game. Use Disable on the reapers in the part before Zodiark. They spam death a lot. Disabling them, you can prevent them from doing this. And when facing Zodiark, make sure you have the Black Masks and/or Demon Shields.
To make those bats easier as you're going through there, put them to sleep using Sleepga and use Curaja only. Faith increases damage dealt with it. Have Protect on to reduce damage, and give everybody shields to block some of their attacks.
Don't bother melee'ing the bats. They parry a lot.
Have Bubble on at all times, and have your guys Haste'd.
If you're cheap like me and can't be bothered to buy 3 rubber suits, Addle also reduces the damage done by the Hecteyes' (flan type enemy) Thundaga spamming. Wither also works well to reduce the damage from their obnoxiously fast paced melee attacks. Disable is better against the bats than sleep IMO.
Anyway the "recommended level" can vary a lot depending on your licenses and equipment.
I got through the Henne Mines at level 17....
I'm in the Stillshrine now, Bash is level 19 but everyone else is still 18 :p
They'll all be 19 before I finish it though....
Equip the right weapons, take it slowly and dont be scared of running from battles, it's easy :p
my advice to you is figure things out for yourself more (hopefully you wont take any offence from this post.) i'm sure most people used to be a bit nervous about new things and a bit put off when you cant do something but you learn more by trial and error.
im the kind of person who goes around a friends house and plays a game im never played before head on and i try to figure things out for myself instead of asking and i think im better off for doing that.
A nice peice of advice is, if your stuck, level up 3-5 levels and try again, which will work every time unless your seriously underlevelled.
Tiamat, the boss is level 25. You should be 25 or higher to cross the mines "comfortably" but not too overleveled.
Tiamat Stats
* Level: 25
* HP: 49,993
* MP: 999
* Steal: Hi Potion, Ring Wyrm scale, Leo Gem
* Air eater -1/2 damage on all other elements
* Weak: Earth
I'm not offended.I understand that what your saying.Thanks for all the help guys.I'm at level 22 right now and I'm still leveling up.Sorry but I must ask.Where's the best place to level up?I like leveling up in the giza Rains but the Dry just started.Thanks again.:D
well train on the werewolves in the giza plains (dry) or just train in ozmone plains
Go west (left) on Giza Plains (dry) and you will get to a good place to level up on the Westersand. Full of Sleipninr, Urstrix and other stronger guys.
If that is too easy for you then teleport to Ozmone plains and level up there near the monsters that look like Behemoths and Sleipnir. You can also try "hit and run" peeks at Golmore jungle: Go in, kill some coeurls, get out before you are massacred.
LOL...I remember those days when i kicked ass around those levels...
Thanks guys.I'm thinking of heading in.Every one is at the level 26 and 27.I got demonsbane.And alot of other stuff so they got new weapons and armour.Thanks agian.You guys are the best!
No problem. Just draw the bats over one by one, and don't let them gang up on you. Also, the ghostly horses, make sure that you kill them off quick and don't mess around for :skull::skull::skull::skull:!
