wtf how much do i have to pay this guy to get him to zanmato?

i treid 20k and he just used a wakizashi

[Suikojowy]

I'm afraid he needs the cash to fuel his hi-potion addiction.

However, you can lower the required cash for zanmato by improving your relationship with him.

You should avoid letting him use his dog to attack, dying or is withdrawing him from battle since that lowers your relationship points with him. Using other attacks improves your relationship.

You can't definitely summon him with a fixed cash amount in the north american version. You can in PAL, but it's awful high.

Just start off paying him low, and never pay him less. Eventually he'll start doing zanmoto often, and wakizashi.

[IpwnUthisMuch|------|]

he almost always does wakazashi for me... i dont care that he lowers the req cash i just want to know how much i need to pay him

[4evarisha]

give him 1 gil.

[abrojtm]

There is no set number. He is more likely to use it while in Overdrive, so take advantage of that. Also (as previously stated) improving your relationship with him increases your chances.

[starseeker]

I used 1k gil each time, 5k if I wanted a favour, that's the minimum to get his relationship up.

[Psydekick]

give him 1 gil.

Thats what I do and he does Zanmato on every random battle but Dark aeons or bosses he never does it. Do bare in mind that I have killed 4 dark aeons and I have used him commonly so I probably have lots of relationship points

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

to increase relationship
1. don't let him use his dog attack
2. never pay him 0 gil
3. paying him at least 1/2 ur funds will always raise it quite a bit
4. paying him at least 1/2 ur funds while hes has his overdrive is very beneficial

[Psydekick]

Just use Bahamut instead he is better.

20000gil is nowhere near enough

it's really quite sketchy....basically it's something like.... if he uses Wakizashi, Zanmato or Kozuka your relationship will go up. If he uses Diagoro it goes down.... Practice with Yojimbo and reset the game if he used diagoro..(save first though..of course) after a while your relationship level will improve and he'll use Zanmato more often...

[boys from the dwarf]

if you just give him about 100K hell be using good moves constantly. if it a hard enemy or boss i think it lowers the chance of a zanmato. i cant cant be bothered to spend hours leveling to be strong enough to fight the dark aeons so i just use yojimbo and i had to give him 100K to make him zanmato shiva at full overdrive and usually he just does that when i summon him so im sure if your fighting a strong opponent it lowers the chances.
