[crazybayman]

Where/how can I find a Dead Pepper?

Anyone?

[GunbladeMaster]

choco hot and cold game
theyre best found in the forest
and i think u can buy em from Mene

(they only start to appear at a certain point)

EDIT: You can also get 99 of them from the chocobo at Chocobos Paradise (u will need to be a gold chocobo to reach this place)

Right...
I'm just starting the Chocograph game, I've just gotten the first chocograph treasure.

What I'm most interested in is getting Zidane's Ultima Weapon, and I know where to get it, I just need the Dead Pepper, and, well, an upgraded chocobo.

So do I just have to go through all the chocographs, until I get a sea chocobo, and then go for the Ultima Weapon?

[GunbladeMaster]

yeah thats about right
but it will take a while till u can actually go anywhere in the ocean

How long are we talking here.......a few hours of straight chocograph hunting?

Do I find all the chocograph stones in the chocobo forest?

[GunbladeMaster]

mene will tell you when the forest is out of graphs
thats when u move on to the next place
and u do 6 there
then back to the forest for another 6
and then back to the other place for another few
and then a new place for the last ones

well ur going to have to get the Reef and Mountain Chocobo before the Sea chocobo.

And u transform every 6 chocographs so...

[crazybayman]

yep, that'll take quite a bit of time.

[GunbladeMaster]

indeed

[sub zero]

you only have to dig up 6 chocographs. you dont have to find the tresure each one locates wich speeds it up. but its your choice. i got the gold chocobo in about 3-4 hours then took 10 mins finding the ultima weapon. when i got it it only did 3k damage all that work for a crappy weapon. how do ya power it up.

ps im plying thought just at (SPOILER)gismalukes grotto any tips on beating the boss?

[GunbladeMaster]

if u have Quina than itll make it easier
have Freya jump, ziddy attack, vivi cast thunder, and quina attack and heal

and trust me as u get more powerful so will the Ultima Weapon
eventually ull be able to do 7-8k

Isn't it rated at increasing your attack by 100, where the Orichalcon increases your attack by 71? This should increase your attacks.

I think it depends on what skills you have equipped and what type of enemy your fighting, i.e. Dragon Killer for fighting dragons, man eater for fighting men, Bug Killer for fighting bugs, etc.

MP attack also gives you a nice boost in attack power. Eats away your MP very quickly, though.

I do 9999 pretty much every time.

I used a tent on him right at the start of the battle, because it causes a bunch of status effects. But it also heals 9999 so do it at the start.

Haha, I remember phoning the help number in the back of my FFIX instruction manual for that strategy.
