Thread: 1000 Balls from Maniac mode?

  1. #1

    Default 1000 Balls from Maniac mode?

    Umm kinda game spoiler.. welll not really haha:





    Well I just got to the coliseum part, and my mission is to get 1000 balls from the pots in Maniac mode? How the heck is this possible? I've tried like 4 times and gotten 177 as my highest one.. maybe I need to level up first/get better gear/some special skill? I dunno o_O

    I noticed that the pots usually only break at the end of a combo.. does that mean I should take off my combo+ abilities?

    Any suggestions?

    1. Take off all your abilities other than "Negative Combo" and "Draw", since you need to get orbs and the pots will only break/fly at the end of a combo.
    2. The key is to hit those big golden pots INTO the masses of smaller pots. Position yourself infront of the large pot so that when you hit it it will fly directly into the small pots. This gives you about 100x the orbs.

    It's really not hard if you do it this way and as far as I know it's the only possible way. It took me about a billion tries to figure it out.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Unequip all Combo+'s, equip Negative combo, and if you have it, equip Fenrir (another negative combo) that way they fly in one hit.

    No, the weapon you get from the Goddess of Fate is... Can't remember the name, but it has Berserk Charge.

    Fenrir is from beating Sephy, telling Cloud about Sephy, and watching the Tifa/Cloud/Sephy conversation/battle.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    Don't worry.........I had the same problem. I felt real stupid when I found out that it wasn't equipped.
    If your not living on the edge then you are taking up too much room.
