    I take it you are in Draklor? Take out the Rooks one at a time. Keep haste on all your party members and keep silence on Cid. Do not use black magics why the Rooks are still alive.

    After all 4 rooks go down, pound cid as hard as you can. Quickenings can make for a fast death of a single rook.

    Keeps him casting spells to buff his self up.

    If you can only get one then you are going to be stuck pounding the rooks into submission with normal attacks. Don't waste your time touching Cid until the Rooks are good and dead.

    Re: FFXII Help Thread: CAUTION - spoilers abound

    K well it seems like you need me to break out the big guns. You should not be having so many problems with this fight.

    Start the fight off by casting Haste on all active party members. Also if you by chance have Bravery, Haste (on your party) and any kind of multi-poisoning spells you have on the rooks, example Bio cast them in the second round. Also if you by chance have bubble or bubble belts (cant remember if they are available at that point in the game) use them.

    Knock out Rook A with a quickening first thing. This should reduce some damage. Take the next turn to silence Cid. After that use 2 two of your stronger fighters to take down the other rooks while using 1 healer to constantly heal damaged party members.

    Also if you have not been boosting you HP on the grid I highly suggest do so before you enter this fight. Another thing you might want to do before going into this fight is to catch up the levels of your other party members as Rydia recommended.

    Bio should help take down the rooks faster due to the fact that every turn will remove more HP. The rooks should not be that big of a problem if you have been obtaining better armor and the fact they only have about 1000 HP a piece.

    Hope this helps, if not we can work on a different strategy for you.

    Forgot to mention to cast Dispell on them. Also might want to think about casting reflect on cid, that way his buffs get reflected off.

Every bad guy in the game can be taken down with out it.

    If you truly want one the best and easiest method is Nechrol method that FFking pointed out.

    Seeing I am lazy I am just going to source the chests you don't want to open and throw it in a spoiler tag.

    SPOILER!!:

    1. The chest in front of Old Dalan's place at the southern end of Rabanastre Lowtown.

    2. The chest in the Rabanastre Palace Cellar. Do not open the one at the southeast corner of the map. There will be either one or two chests that may appear there. To be safe, don't open any of them.

    3. The chest in the room at Nalbina Dungeons where you regain all your equipment back. There are more than one chest in the room so to be safe, just don't open any of them.

    4. The chest at the eastern-most section of the Phon Coast. There are 16 chests there arranged neatly near the shore. Don't open any of them.

    Source: Articlesbase
    Aww crap, I got the one near Old Dalan. I got a Zodiac Spear in Henne Mines just yesterday. And for Yaizmat, I went to Level 90. It still took 5 Hours.
    Thanks for the help!

    And one more question, this might have been asked before but where can you get the Ribbon? The guide said that it was in a chest at the field near Balfohiem(Sorry for spelling, can't remember the name.) but which chest? I've been in every area and opened every chest. Do I need to equip the Diamond Armlet?

    Re: FFXII Help Thread: CAUTION - spoilers abound

    I got the second one and it's a 1/1000 chance if I remember.

    It roughly took me 4 hours of quick restarts to get it, btu was worth it with a party of Tournesol and 2 Zodiac Spears.

    Man haven't played that game in ages, Stupid WoW

    EDIT: Answering question.

    Entering the Crossfield area of Cerobi Steppe via the save point, Against the far side from where you're looking and slightly too the right is a chest behind the rocks. Now with diamond armlet you have a 50% for the chest to appear, 30% chance of an item and 10% of it being a ribbon.... Good luck, and may wanna look for some Fomaulhalts around there

    If I recall correctly, have Ashe as your party leader, and equip her with the Dawn Shard. Then you activate the switch/pedestal, and the door should open. Afterward, you can remove the Dawn Shard from Ashe and switch your party leader to whoever you want.

    Hope that helps. ^^

    Re: FFXII Help Thread: CAUTION - spoilers abound

    Hey I know this is double posting but i'm still stuck at the 3rd Ascent at the Pharos. The coloured waystones have me stumped and I was wondering if anyone could tell me the order that you are supposed to use to get across. It's been four months since I posted about this and no matter how many times I try to get acroos the room I end up at the part with all the undead monsters. Any form of assistance will be greatly appreciated

    This stumped me for the longest time. Here's what I now know, and hopefully it helps.

    First, choose the Black Sigil. I believe the pillar with the message says to.

    Second, the Green Sigil.

    Third, the Red Sigil.

    Fourth, and this one is where I had the trouble. What did you sacrifice during the second ascent. The Sigil you choose here corresponds with what you sacrifice then. I don't remember the colors, but you should remember which one you chose, and what color it was. Anyway, choose the Sigil that matches the color with what you Sacrificed.

    Fifth, don't touch any Sigil. Instead, find the Fool's Facade. Past that wall is a WayStone. Touch it. Then, get ready for a fight. I don't remember if there is a Save Point, but if there is make sure to use it.

    Re: FFXII Help Thread: CAUTION - spoilers abound

    Thanks a lot Michael you've been a huge help. I'll have to think back to what I sacrificed on the second ascent, I think it was the use of items. I can't be too sure, it was four months ago Thanks once again!

    I was just wondering what you guys think is the absolute minimum level to fight the bosses Tiamat and Elder Wyrm? I tried Elder Wyrm on a previous playthrough and it always kicked my butt. I think I should at least be 25.

    Re: FFXII Help Thread: CAUTION - spoilers abound

    Level 25 seems good but I don't think they matter so much as the equipment you use. Whyrm type enemies like Tiamat and Elder Whyrm become a lot easier to fight if you give at least two of your characters ranged weapons and spread them out around the Boss and then it's just a matter of keeping them covered with Cure. Larsa should be a big help with his Hi-Potions but I can't remember if he's with you for both of these battles. I hope this helps you as the Elder Whrm was a major pain for me.
