What Not to Open *treasure Chests*

[skillzboy4]

I was wondering if anyone had any info on what treasure chests not to open for the new people playing the game so that they can obtain the *really good* weapons, i need some info to.

Off the top of my head:

Across from Old Dalan's in Lowtown

Bottom-right corner of the palace storage.

The confiscatory in Nalbina.

The fourth one escapes me at the moment.

Yeah just to clarify the bottom-right corner of the palace is a Elixir if u did get it ur screwed

and the Confiscatory in Nalbina is right after the scene (SPOILER)where u lose all ur equipment find it in the room with the chests.

I would just like to say, this is the stupidest thing ever. And the only possibly reason for doing this that makes any sort of sense is that they just wanted to sell more strategy guides.

I opened every treasures there is in this game.
There is another way to get it too though.
Just that the percentage is lower.

Pretty much, Miriel. Thankfully those who purchased the obnoxiously large strategy guides can spread the knowledge to the others though.

You can get it by other way.
Just the percentage to get is lower.

Rare to find. Its not a very great weapon compared to other.
Just I wanna get it to complete my weapon collection.

Supposedly its the best weapon in the game. But what suprises me is that the past FFs have been based around missing nothing and getting everything. Now you have to purpously miss some things to get something else.

Wait, what the heck is this? What's going on here?

[Jowy]

If you open four specific treasure chests throughout the course of the game, which are completely unidentifiable then you're unable to get the most powerful weapon available: The Zodiac Spear.

It's really lame.

There are 4 chests in the game that are connected to some super weapon that's supposed to be the most powerful weapon in the game. In order to get this weapon, you have to leave those 4 treasure chests alone and not open them. If you open even one, the Zodiac Spear disappears or something. The stupid thing is that those chests look like every other chest in the game and there is NOTHING to indicate that those are special and that they shouldn't be opened. They're placed randomly about just like all the other chests, they look exactly like the other chests. The only slightly special thing about them (which you only find out AFTER opening the chests) is that when you open them they have a good chunk of gil inside. When I opened the first one (in front of Old Dalan's place) it gave me a nice chunk of 700-ish gil. I thought, "oh that was nice" but then you know, I guess that's supposed to be compensation for losing out on the super weapon thing.
