I have beat the first boss there and I have moved all the statues, I think i id them right but i guess not because the "sword of justice" is blocking my way down to Mateus..and the sword so what did I do wrong? One of the statues? Does anyone know the proper turns for each statue?
you need to turn the 3 statues to face the large sword that is blocking your way -- you'll probably have to be constantly referring to your large dungeon map to make sure that they're oriented correctly. Doesn't matter how you turn them, just so they're facing the correct way. You should hear a beep/ring or some other obvious "you did it!" sound when everything is right.
I have all 3 statutes turned so they face down..and i think i heard a bleep sound but still the sword is in my way...
No, you have to turn the side statues to face each other (east facing west, west facing east) and the center one must face north (i.e the middle, with it's back to the blade). Like below.
Stupid no ? But it is what works, no matter what the statues themelves tell you

EDIT: Here you go, the arrows show where the gurdians need to face

Well if I remember correctly (and I probably don't, since my memory has been blurred by all the other ridiculously long dungeons in the game), the third statue is actually to the south of the central big sword thingy, so it makes sense to have to turn it north.
There will be a little message when you do it right for all three, it will say 'You hear something move,' or some such.
Ok i got it figured out now and I beat Mateus with 2 sets of quickenings, and i just easily beat Judge Bergan, on my way to Archades, any places i should get new weapons or new magicks? Please tell me where they are on my way.
lol slow down flecka where are you on the map, exactly?
I'm back in Rabanstre now...
After returning to Bur-Omisace go level up and get loot at the Feywood. Then go do some hunts. There's a fun one hunting for a giant white chocobo (Trickster) in Paramina Rift :DQuote:

though, I think I'll take Ren's advice and go to the Feywood since I have about 30 gil.
I've got two grimoires waiting in the bazaar, not to mention new equipment, magicks, technicks, gambits.... even chaining for good loot takes a crapload of time!
...OK, I'm done.
If the Feywood is still too much for you try Nam Yensa Sandsea, Simoons' Bluff (teleport to Raythwall, then head north east). There are tons of "Bagoly" (looks like Urstrix) there that can be pwned at low levels and drop 1,100 gil "bent staff". And "Axelbeak" (a blue turkey) drops 500 gil Rainbow eggs :DQuote:

*it's more like 1 in 4... but eh....
True, one in 10, I think. But there's around 20 Bagoly so.... Even without the grimoire, if you chain them they will drop it more often. But you have to stay away from those pesky blue turkeys! (Axelbeak). Buying "Poach" also helpsQuote:

I tried the Bagoleys with no luck, so I chanced a trip to the Feywood. The monsters are, on average, 10 levels higher than me, but I'm managing....just doing a lot of healing. I'm getting some good stuff from the "Urstrix" monsters there(windtracer pinions?), as well as the wolves. Got those other two grimoires, and I'm working on the rest of the stuff I want.
I wish the rewards for marks and those you get from Montblanc were more helpful...I mean 1,200 gil (or so) when everything already costs 7,000 and up? ...ah well, back to the grind.
