FFXII Help Thread: CAUTION - spoilers abound

[Shadow Of Darkness]

Yes the timer will continue so you need to do all that shit again to get to Omega Mark XIII.
I fought Omega and been killed In about 30 seconds (im lv 88).
Imega has 1,000000 hp and her attack do 5000 damage so you sholud get your lv to 100.
Good luck...you'll need it

[shadowknight]

Thanks, that helps, I'm going to level up and get both in the same trip so I only have to go through that mess once.

Hi

I’m the newbie on the block, and I’m stuck, go figure.

I’m in Feywood trying to get through the gate (Gigas gate). What the hell am I suppose to do, or where do I get the key? My Team is all above Level 50 (Vaan 56)

[Meier Link]

there are shrines all about the area, all you have to do is go into each one and rotate the camera angle down and around until you see an illusion it will point you to the next shrine you need to go to. keep repeating this until it points you at the gates. if you go to the wrong shrine you will have to start all over again. so as soon as you see an illusion (must be staning in the center of the shrine BTW) open up the area map, locate and remember what shrine you are suppose to be going to, with all the "fog" and bad guys its easy to end up at the wrong place. hope this helps out. BTW you have to summon belias and have him on the playing feild to open the gate if i remember correctly.
hope this makes sence and is helpful

i need info asap lol where do you get the genji armour and the rest of the genji equipment? and is it worth getting?

[Meier Link]

to answer you i am going to have to be secretive

SPOILER!!:

you steal it from giglamesh in the secret part of the mines (luhshu mines(sp) i believe after you recive the key from a guy outside of the beached area of the phon coast (revisited later in the game of course)
you can only steal 1 item per each of the forms he transforms into and you have to fight him twice he runs away once

[Polk]

i need info asap lol where do you get the genji armour and the rest of the genji equipment? and is it worth getting?

All Genji equpiment can be stolen from Gilgamesh, in his two forms. Gilgamesh is one of the only enemies in the game that you can steal different items from at different points. During the first fight, at <40% health and <20% health, you can steal two pieces of Genji equipment. Same for second form, totalling four pieces total. I recommend setting up gambits so that you only steal until you get the piece of equipment you want, equipping Thief's Cuffs to make the job quicker. The steals go like this:

First Form
<100% HP- Potion, 1000 gil
<80% HP- Potion, 2000 gil
<60% HP- X-Potion (gil)
<40% HP- Genji Shield
<20% HP- Genji Gauntlet

Second Form
<100% HP- Hi-Potion, 3000 gil
<80% HP- Hi-Potion, 4000 gil
<60% HP- X-Potion (gil)
<40% HP- Genji Helm
<20% HP- Genji Armor

And of course it's worth getting!! The Genji Equipment is some of the best in the game!! Great stat boosts and some extra abilities.

Damn, you beat me to it Meier Link!

[Meier Link]

sorry james, but your explination was more indepth prolly better all around haha plus i had to go back and edit mine because i messed up a little haha and i might have to edit again to make sure i got the correct names of the mines.

also a point to note you have to beat the antilion hunt to be able to access the hunt for giglimesh (accessable through clan centerio only) and to even get the area key to try and fight him

[likemike]

Thank u meierlink and jamesk.polk for that info im wundering about sumat elce now and your reasorses could be usfull em where do you get the tournesol and the excalibur and are the worth getting?

[Meier Link]

tournsol you have to sell Sell 3x Empyreal Soul, 3x Gemsteel, 3x Serpentarius at the bazaar. and the excalibur is in the great crystals upper layers if i remember correctly it is 2-4 screens away from the leo gate in a chest ontop of a trap

both are great but not nessisary to beat the game

[sparhawk]

i need help where can i find renew when can i get it

[Dimi]

You can get the magick, "renew", at the Dalmasca Westersand from the merchant. I believe it's a little bit over 30,000 gil if I recall. (EDIT: It's actually 35,000 gil.) And you are able to get it after going to Pharos. Hope this helps.

[sparhawk]

thanks alot

[likemike]

yo me again i was just wundering where you fined the solid horn you need for the deathbringer thanks

[Doc Rocco]

You can get them by Poaching toad monsters (Abbadons at the Pharos are you're best bet).

[HUNK]

How do you open the pilgrims door in the sochen cave palace?
Ive tried everything i can think of and cant open it.

[Confession]

Go to the Uplands Teleport crystal. Talk to the boy there. Then it all falls into place

[Gilgamesh]

Anyone know what "fusion techniques" are? I have everything in the sky piarates den except for the one where you unlock Gabranth by initiatiating every fusion techniques. Cheers.

Those are the Concurrances that happen when you perform the required quickenings in a quickening chain.

[Confession]

And to get Gabranth you need to do every "Fusion Technique" even that annoying black hole.

[Gilgamesh]

Ok thanks guys, think i have to do that ice fall one.

[Riddler]

Go to the Uplands Teleport crystal. Talk to the boy there. Then it all falls into place

Actually he/she means the other door which leads to a rare hunt(not hell wyrm),I've been through it but I forgot the combination for the waterfalls.

[HeroMaxim]

Can anyone help me find the key for the Lenne mines i think it is... The mine at Bhujerba its to fight Gilgamesh the second time, can some one help me? also the Summon in the Sluice gates area whats a good battle strategy to beat him?

AND!!!

the wyrm at the wester sands how do you encounter him?

[Polk]

Can anyone help me find the key for the Lenne mines i think it is... The mine at Bhujerba its to fight Gilgamesh the second time, can some one help me?

The key can be found at the Hunter's Camp in the Phon Coast. It's sitting next to the guy who appears to be injured. I think his name is something like "Fallen Bhujerban" or something. Also, you have to beat the Antlion first, as that is how the key drops next to him.

also the Summon in the Sluice gates area whats a good battle strategy to beat him?

Cuchulainn? There's a continuous HP Sap in the area, so set up healing gambits with Curaja at a high HP percentage. Watch out for his status spells, he hits with immobilize, disable, and slow amongst others. Use the appropriate accessory to help prevent. When his HP gets low, he uses the invert spell, which switches your HP and MP. This, combined with HP Sap, is the real killer. Take care of the Foobars as they pop up, and be careful with his attacks, and you should be fine.

the wyrm at the wester sands how do you encounter him?

-Look for Rimzat at Dalmasca Westergate. Speak to him.
-He'll tell you to look for his buddy Cotze in the Southern Plaza. Do it. He's hanging out by the fountain.
-He will point you to find a guy named Northon hanging out by Storehouse 5. Talk to him. He will talk about an item named the Windvane. He has half. You have to find the other half.
-Go to the Westersands, in the secluded area of the Windtraced Dunes, accessible from the Shimmering Horizons.
-Return to the Westgate. Speak to Rizmat. You receive the Wind Globe. Go to the Wyrm's Nest area in the Westersand to fight the Earth Tyrant. Also, Niho + Remedy = Win.
