did anyone get these weapons?

[Twilight Edge]

One stupid question......how on earth do you get a dead pepper?Lagoon or forest?

[Dell]

You will get Dead Pepper eventually.

Red Chocobo can't cross sea so you can't get Ultima Weapon with it, you need to have at least Black Chocobo (I'm sorry if I'm wrong).

Or Lagoon.

You don't have Black Chocobo in IX...Black Chocobo is in VII, and nuu...Red Chocobo can cross the ocean, just that it cannot fly like the Gold Chocobo in IX.

I think after you change your Chocobo into some other others like blue or whatever...you start to get Dead Pepper.

[Quindiana Jones]

As soon as you get the red mountain Chocobo, you can get Dead Peppers.

[Ace14]

You can get Dead Peppers as the red chcobo, but you need the dark blue right after the red chocobo to get the ultima weapon. You also need the Terra to blow up.

Ultima weapon is surprisingly easy to get compared to some of the other FF ultimate weapons (Caladbolg, Onion Knight etc...)

Excalibur II is not worth getting considering all the things you miss out on. But supposedly you could keep two seperate save files, one for the normal game and the other file for obtaining Excalibur II... just to show how incredibly good you are.

Excalibur 2 is the only weapon I've never been able to retrieve. I don't think it's worth rushing through the game just to get it. I'd rather settle for less, and enjoy the game.

I am glad to see most if not all here agree that Excalibur 2 was not worth it. I tried doing it once, but I realised I was just playing for beating against the clock and the enjoyment of playing the game was no longer there.
