    did you forget the GARMENT GRIDS I have all of then listed below with tips on them.


    G A R M E N T G R I D S

    Ok, FFX-2 has a new system that uses GARMENT GRIDS. These grids allow you to set a certain amount of Dress Spheres that your characters can use. This requires you to be thoughtful when you prepare a character. If you want your character to access certain abilities you need either the sphere equipped or make sure the Garment Grid you are using has that ability built in. Otherwise you are out of luck ;p

    EXPLANATION

    There are four types of GATES on a grid between the NODES (holes to put your spheres), that are always YELLOW (Y), BLUE (B) RED (R) and GREEN (G) and these GATES add elements to your sphere that you would normally not have, like strength, magic, poison, haste, whatever. Make sure you read all the fine print before you load it on your character cause you could cause either some serious damage to an ennemy or end up curing them everytime you attack! Keep your eyes peeled.




    TIP

    There is something very important you NEED to know about the sphere grid system. When you pass through a GATE while changing dresspheres, you activate the correspondent ability. So, in the following tables you will see G , R , B, Y in various combinations.

    These combination MUST be activated before you can access the ability. In other words, if it says (G,R,B,Y) you need to activate all four colored nodes before you can have the ability, such as flare or Auto-life. Annoying, yes. Worth it? Oh yeah!

    Except threads are meant for discussion. This is just info taken out of the strategy guide or off GameFaq. No discussion to be had here, except random comments of "Oh. How nice. Thanks."

    My point exactly. And I have reason to believe that http://www.eyesonff.com/forums/showthread.php?t=65299 is another such thread.

    I would recommend that you wait for someone to ask a question instead of posting unsolicited help.
