All questions and problems with FFX answered

No trouble at all. I enjoy being helpful.

Here they are:

Zaurus
Floating Death
Black Element
Halma
Puroboros
Spirit
Machea
Master Couerl
Master Tonberry
Varuna

In addition to these fiends, you may run into these, which are counted as part of the Inside Sin list:

Great Malboro
Demonolith
Adamantoise
Gemini (1)
Gemini (2)

A couple of suggestions:

1) Great Malboros get to ambush you in this dungeon, so have a character equip Initiative and cast Provoke. It'll use only physical attacks when provoked and not Bad Breath.

2) Spirits can also be provoked to just cast White Wind, which is better than the confusion/poison attack they prefer.

3) Black Elements have some nasty spells but they can be silenced and are then harmless.

4) Demonoliths have a petrification breath, so equip Petrification-proof armor or use Aeons (which are immune to status ailments).

5) Master Tonberrys counterattack every physical attack and it's usually fatal so keep life magic and pheonix downs handy.

6) Hastega is you friend in here.

auto-life and full-life are also your second best friends if you have them

I need help with Dark Shiva, I'm only missing macalania sphere to get anima, and she always kills me, it's frustrating.
I managed dark valefor, irfrit and ixion but she's to fast even with auto-haste armour, auto-phoenix and casting constant auto-life. She starts killing my characters, even with Hp limit broken, and I only have time to auto-phoenix. I hardly ever survive diamond dust, and if I do she kills me after. Mu auron does 99.999 damage, and she could be dead in 11 hits, but y hardly manage to hit her once.
I really does sound pathetic, please any help would be good.

Yojimbo doesn't want to do zamoto either

My pleasure.


Kalmaegnar, I don't have the international version so the best I can suggest is go the gamefaqs.com where you can find strategies for taking down every boss.

Also I'm sure people who have played the international version will post...eventually. :sweatdrop

If you have any problems whatsoever, are stuck in the game, want hints and tips then simply post your questions on this thread and i will reply with the answer! fear not i am you saviour!

chaos: In FFX-2, how do you beat Penance's twin brother Denice the Menice, who if you beat, gives you the Super Pheonix down which will let you revive Aeris? I tried everything! I even went back to the Farplane and revived Auron after a really long sidequest, but even he's not strong enough! :sarcasm:

Albedo: *laughs maniacally*

Try the following for Dark Shiva:

1) Maximize your agility on the sphere grid.

2) Use Aim several times.

3) Block her overdrive with your Aeons as a shield.

Try the following for Dark Shiva:

2) Use Aim several times.

3) Block her overdrive with your Aeons as a shield.

Or alternatively...

1) First Strike -> Yojimbo -> Zanmato -> win

Cheap, but effective

if you get wakka's celestial weapon + attack reels, and he has lots of strength, she could be dead in one attack reels (thats how i did it). note that attack reels NEVER misses.

also, because she is so easy to beat like this, try doin it a few times till you get a cool armor with Ribbon and Break HP...
