Final Fantasy 12 PS2 Q&A

Q: Where I can find ixeon ? thanks

A1: Go 2 pharos at ridorana...when you enter, go to that elevator that never worked at the first floor, now it can be used. go to penumbra. make sure your party's at least lvl 65+. Now keep going around. do not go into any doors...if frogs and mistmares come out, go back down the elevator and go back up. if you go around and there are no enemies, ixion will appear. equip holy lances, they should deal over 9000 dmg if ur at a lvl 65......if you have an excalibur, good 4 you, it makes things waaaaaay easier.... -TomTM

A2: Equip your party with rose corsages and rubber suits this will stop silencga and thundaga cure yourself when hit. Just keep hitting him. if he ytargets a character wit haste change to that character and run off. cure them then run back to the fight. I did thiws at lv 46

A3: Oh yeah sorry I said the above cheat on how to beat ixion. It is in Penumbra. Use the lift to get there. If there are abbadons go back up and down the elevator until there are no abbadons. walk aound the are and he should appea. Try casting float. When I did this he appeared straight away. -Answer by:FFobssesive

A4: When you first walk in the Phros where the save point there is a elevator you can take to go to the lower levels watch out because he might don't be around, it will be a swarm of these dark frogs and horses around and they might can wipe the floor with even your main party. make so you be on a high lvl I suggest above 60. you'll know when he's there because no enemys won't around the ring just HIM,and he pack a punch so stay buff (bubble/protect/shell/bravey/faith/haste/ect.) at all times. -Answer by:Badbone

A5: Basiclly all you have to do is go to the pharos and go to the first way gate and fo to the phembra or somethin like that. if there r monsters just go back up. wait and go back there and if there is no monters wait bout 30's and he'll come. he's not that hard just have curaga and curaja and he'll die. you will get a rangnork which has 109+ attack with on hit immobolize

A6: He's in Penumbra. Drive the Elevator up and down until he appears. He's in the area where the Frogs and Horses appear. -Answer by:Rain17

Q: How do I get to fenny minds?

A1: I am asuming that you mean henne mines. Get to at least lvl 50 and get 10 espers(final fantasy sector will help you hear) and do the hunts for the garifs, it will allow accsess to the henne mines.

A2: You can get to the henne mines through a patch of weeds that you can only pass through on a chocobo, there are two of these paths one on the south-east side of the area just outsidejahara and one to the east by the save crystal.

A3: I got through the henne mines about level 30 are something like that

Q: Hello there!!! can some one tell me how to fight Hellwyrm in the sochen cave palace??? I already have the Ageworn key but I can't open the aztec door!!! Is this something to do with the door of hours??? please help me!!!

A1: Ok....here it is: first enter the sochen cave palace from old archades. when you get to the place w/ the door of hours thing, there will be 3 doors. Pick the middle one. then turn left. open the door of hours. now go around the circle in the map, starting from the door on your right. becareful, you might get confused and pick another door. so check your map. keep going and make sure you do not open the wrong doors. after going around, it will say that a door has opened in a distance or somthing. now keep going around the circle in the same path until you end up in the aztec door place. as you can see, it will be opened. now go in. you will soon end up in front of another aztec door. thats the door for the ageworn key. you will then fight hellwyrm. your going to have to fight him 50 times due to those little dots under the boss HP bar. one bar is 1 million HP. use holy weapons like excalibur and holy lance.....hes tough, but I never lost though....if you cant beat him 50 times, you can just get outta there......you wont need to start all over and his HP will be the same...soon after you beat him about 30 times, his defense will go up....a 9999 damage will become a 6999 damage. berserk and bravery wont change a thing.....you dont need reverse if your party is at a lvl 75+...careful though, his judgement attack has a chance of stopping your chracters so have chronos tears... after you beat hell wyrm......beat all the hunt marks.....then montblanc will give you the RANK X the clan has been hunting for years. that hunt is Yiazmat. that is actually the true goal of the clan......yazmat looks like hell wyrm except blue.......10 million HP.....again, jus lyk helwyrm, beat him 50 times.....1 bar is 2 million HP!!! FOTHERMUCKER!!! hes also the strongest monster in the game, yes, even stronger than zodiark.......one rake attack can deal about 3000 dmg n over! I HAVENT EVEN BEATEN THE FIRST ROUND! my party is about 87+ ryt now....i cant even beat zodiark because of him using switch....but when fighting yazmat, my characters cant even last 20 minutes.....i heard rumors that 2 hours time is the fastest record to beat yazmat...... -TomTM

A2: It was a tad bit wrong at the start of that answer. Let me rephrase for him. Enter Sochen Cave Palace from Tchita Uplands. When you enter the Palace, go east from the area 'Falls of time'. From there, go north and you'll find yourself in the eastern-most part of the door puzzle. Open the doors in a clockwise direction (meaning, if you look at the map, the doors are assembled in a circle. Open these doors each going clockwise.) -Answer by:SkyeWinters

A3: The doors of hours are arranged like a clock. Enter from the Tchita uplands. Enter the area with the doors of hours through the most easterly entrance. Enter the circle At what 3 would be on a clock. Go clockwise around the map. When you get back to 3 a door will open in the distance. Go through the Astec door and use the ageworn key at the door at the end of the corridor. Go down the corridor with the abysteels and zombie warlocks. The door at the end of this corridor leads to the room with hell wyrm in it. sorry if I justr repeated this answer. -Answer by:FFobssesive

A4: Everything you have said so far is correct, but I must correct TomTM is Hell wyrms health. Hellwyrm has only 8 million HP, just 38 health bars. As for Yiazmat, he has 50 million HP, I actually know a guide to beat him in 50 minutes, its at GameFaqs.com. Hellwyrm isnt that hard, he uses Rake attack alot and stone breath, when his HP gets really low he starts using Invert alot Hope I helped

A5: Nope, suggestions are wrong, hellwyrm doen't have 8 million hp, it's more than that ya know, but just keep in mind that hellwyrn has many Hp than yiazmat and yiazmat is 5x stronger than hellwyrm..... NOTE: keep in touch about leveling up first......... -Answer by:finalfantasyman

Q: Any1 know where Kerwon is?

A1: Kerwon? you can't go there, kerwon is far from Ivalice's nations..... I know that you read that from the bestiary..... -Answer by:finalfantasyman

A2: You can get there after the rains in Giza. I think it just is the general name for the area where the Gariff and Viera live.

A3: One more thing, the land of gariff is part of Kerwon(just a little bit). -Answer by:finalfantasyman

A4: From Jahara To Eruyt Village is Kerwon territory (half of it, the rest is further south which is unreachable). You can only go to Kerwon if your in the right time of the storyline. Kerwon is available after Dreadnought Leviathan is brought down by the Dawn Shard. Just keep going south of Giza plains. -Answer by:SkyeWinters

A5: You can't go to Kerwon or Rozzaria. Sorry to burst your bubble. -Answer by:FFobssesive

Q: How do I defeat the 1st doctor cid ????

A1: For me, I beat him like this: level 47 Vaan Deathbringer MagepowerShishak Maximillian BubbleBelt level 47 Basch Platnium Sword MagepowerShishak Maximillian BubbleBelt level 46 Ashe Icebrand MagepowerShishak Maximillian BubbleBelt The rest of my party were at about a level 25 and had golden armors.. As I battled him, none of my characters died...first have all this stuf like me. Second, use bravery on Vaan and get him berserked. Third, Vaan will easily kill those flying little robots each in 3 hits...then, doctor cid will be all yours.....warning: near the end of the game, you will meet doctor cid again. he will be a bit harder and will have a rank 3 esper with him:famfrit....GOOD LUCK!

A2: But if you dont have many powerful items like me (my characters were crap when I defeated the 1st dr cid) Just have a good healing character, and two characters attacking the rooks. when the rooks are down you have dr cid to yourself, hack away at him but beware of his special attack. when you get a little more desperate, use quickenings + ethers. -Answer by:SkyeWinters

A3: I just used a load of quickenings. He died but the rooks were actually still alive even with the moves like inferno. I had more powerful follow through moves but I can't remember what they were. -Answer by:FFobssesive

Q: Pls tell me how to beat the Demon walls in the raithwall tomb?

A1: I think the way I did it was to first slow down the demon wall by touching one of those torch things CAUTION! though because sometimes it speeds up the process of the demon wall.Then kill it by using the thing that can use hellfire to kill it.

A2: I did it by goin 2 the merchant outside and byin bacsh penelo ashe iron hammers and mostly every1 ad quicknins and I used up da quik nins and got a chain or 15 then 14 then sithed 2 he people with hammers and jus keep attacking and the person above me u get the helfire esper belias after u complete raithwalls tomb

A3: Ohh dude heres what u do u get every 1 with at least 1 quickining then u fight the demon wall using quickinings use your strongest ones first by themselves so you can get more alround by having two of your stongest people and one of your weakess in your party so u can get a better chain and then go and save after defeating the wall because their is another one in the next room and repeat the process. -Answer by:hiddenlotos

A4: I just kept using my quikenings... like I had three guys out, then I just swich one guy with another guy that has all his magicks-- I luv that word- magicks=)

A5: You don't have to fight both, you can just run straight through to the second wall, I just ran straight to it and battered it with melee attacks, I hate quickenings.

A6: Ok be sure your party is higher or level 17 and have them with quickenings. Be sure on the first demon you do 8,000 damage on it with quickenings then swich to the other 3 characters that have quickenings or just use ether on the 3 characters that you were using first. and the 2nd one do the same thing but you only need to use quickenings only once then just fight it out.

Q: Is omega mk a mimic?

A1: Omega MK XIII, is in theory the strongest boss in the game.

A2: Dunno, but I assume becareful...... it is one of the strongest bosses in the game, not the strongest boss in the game, because the strongest boss in the game is "Yazmat".

A3: Someone mentioned earler that he was a robot of some kind, there could be a chance that he's a mimic, or another sort of construction. Apparently if you cast Vanishga on your party members, he wont attack because he can't 'sense' you since he's a "robot". -Answer by:SkyeWinters

A4: Sorta, cause when you battle it, it is almost looks like a mimic, but I assume, it is not a mimic and Skye is right, when you use Vanishga, it can't detect you, I tried that for my self. -Answer by:finalfantasyman

A5: I9 have a useful answer to that! Omega MK XII is a machine because if you read the last page on the urtan yensa humanoids is says the guy built a robot named mark XII to kill them so in theory he is a robot that broke off his trackin stuff and left for the great crystal R.D.

A6: I know thi9s don't have anything to do to with yo question but cast vanishga before fiteing him

A7: It looks like a massive mimic but about 200x stronger than one. I thought it would look like the Omega Weapon out of the other Final Fantasy's.

Q: Im tryin to get the key for the berheim passage, and im q.far in the game (lvl.50+ characters) ive done the flowering cactoid hunt but ddnt give the flower to Dantro's wife n now she just says "theres trouble in the north bank", can I not do the 'patient in the desert quest' now?!

A1: I'm not sure if you can no longer do the quest or not but here are the steps. If Dantro hasn't told you to give the flower to his wife himself yet, you have to talk to him first before you can give it to her. After he asks you to give it to her, go to the village she's in and then give it to her. When I did it, I couldn't give the flower to her until after Dantro asked me to give it to her himself first. Anyways, after you have give Dantro's Wife the flower, talk to her again. She will then ask you to bring her at least one Semclam Shell. Two of them can be found along the shoreline of the Nebra in the village itself but you only need one of them. Give that the Semclam Shell to Dantro's Wife. After that, talk to her again and she will ask for Nebralim. You must go back to the Outpost after she has asked for the Nebralim and talk to Dantro. He will tell you that the Nebralim is over by some crates but you can't find it until after you have talked to Dantro. Go back to the village Dantro's Wife is in and give her the Nebralim. Then talk to her yet again and she will ask for Valeblossom Dew. You will have to cross the Nebra for the Valeblossom Dew. In order to do this, you will have to talk to the people that are at the shoreline near a boat that has come adrift. You must agree to go with the child (I forgot his name) across the Nebra to see what has happened to everyone that has kept them at the North Bank. Surprisingly to see, they have been held hostage by Cactoids. The child's father has been taking order from their leader and says that all that the Cactoids were doing was trying to find their son. Then you must go back across the Nebra and talk to Dantro's Wife again. She will say something about throwing the flower you gave her behind the house after she made the medicine. Go find it and the Cactoid that you must find with pop up out of the ground, or that's what it looked like to me. It will then follow you, you must take it across the Nebra and return it to the other Cactoids. Then the Cactoids leave and only then will you be able to go beyond the North Bank Village. Beforehand, the path was blocked. Now you can go retrieve the Valeblossom Dew in the Broken Sands. It would be wise to have a map to find your way. In the Broken Sands, there will be cliffs. There are trees that have flowers at the tops of their braches, those are where the Valeblossom Dews can be found. You must go to the top of a cliff where the tips of the branches of the trees touch in order to get a Valeblossom Dew. You only need one but there are more than just one. When you get one, go back to the village that Dantro's Wife is in and give the Valeblossom Dew to her. Talk to her once more and she will say that the traveler in the house will recover soon or something like that. Then exit the village, you can immediately go right back into the village after exiting it if you wish. Then speak with Dantro's Wife yet again. She will tell you that the traveler has fully recovered and stands behind the house, wishing to thank you. Go speak with him and he will give you the Barheim Passage Key because he no longer wants it due to all the trouble he got into trying to find treasure and getting himself severly injured. I hope this helps.

A2: Alk to her son tchigri by the bank of the river... Exit the village then you should find the ferry without the navigator, dantro. Talk to tcigri and he will take you to the north village. a After a seemingly boring cutscene, talk to dantro and ull find urself back to the south village. Talk to dantro's wife and she'll tell you she threw the flower away. Go behind her hut and ull find the flower and a surprise. Just follow through the rest of the events and you have now access to the north village via ferry and you can continue with the barheim key sidequest.

A3: TAlk to Tchigri by the bank of the river. There should be a ferry without his dad. If the ferry is not there. re-enter the village. Talk to Tcigri and he will take you to the north village. After a seemingly boring cutscene, talk to his dad and you will find your self back to the south village automatically. Talk to dantro's wife and she'll tell you she threw the cactus flower you gave her. Go behind her hut and you will find the flower and a surprise. Go back to Tchigri and just follow through the rest of the events. Now you have now access to the north village via ferry and you can continue with the barheim key sidequest.

A4: You have to go to the north bank. I did the same thing, then complete the sidequest with the flowering cactoid that has taken the north bank hostage. After that, follow the directions that everyone has posted. Dantro's wife will then ask you to look for the items to nurse the traveler back to health and you will get the barheim key.

Q: I need the last meliion I got the quest 1 the magic in arace where is the 1 you have to slove the puzzzle ? I heard is in waterway but I dont find it ?

A1: I couldnt find it either. All I need is one and I also heard it was in the water way. I hate the water way. I beat the esper and looked around many times but still no medallion. Is it a glitch?

A2: You have to click the pedestals at the waterway in a certain order than you'll hear a noise. once you hear a noise you'll see something shining on the ground. The order that'll you'll need to go by in on the piece of paper you find in the one abonanded house.

A3: It is at the gate switches near the middle gates. A small glint will be there.

A4: You will need to play with those pedestals in Garamsyte waterway. made by T.J.

A5: Defeat orthros,you will recieve it as a bounty for the hunt

A6: It could be the Three Hunts The Wraith , White Mousie and the Orthros or the Switches but I'll give you the Water Way Puzzle first Turn all of them off ( should not be glowing ) activate 11th and 4th then Deactivate 11th and Activate 3rd then deactivate 4th then go south of the same screen you are and find the glowing object

A7: Did you help the little seeq kid in Lowtown? If you did, then you have your answer. Here's how it goes, once you have both of the waterway keys, go to the watergate control area (where the pedestals are). From there, just follow the directions on the Dusty Letter. East, Southeast, East, Southwest, Southeast (I think that's how it goes).

Q: How do I find the turtle in Tracks of the Beast?

A1: First, you must cut down all of those dead white trees during the Rains. I believe there were six of them. A bridge will form in the area that is to the East of the Crystal Glade called Giza's South Bank, it's really easy to find. Cross the driftwood bridge that was formed into the Tracks of the Beast. There are some Silicon Tortoises there, I think there were four or five, I'm not sure. Kill them all, be careful though, they are quite strong but the Gil Snapper is way stronger when you are able to find it. After all of the Silicon Tortoises are defeated, exit the area. Saving back at the Crystal Glade would be a wonderful idea so that you can heal your party. Go back to the Tracks of the Beast and it will be raining a lot harder than it was before. The Gil Snapper will be there this time. However, the bad news is that if you die, you will not have to remake the bridge but you will have to fight all of those Silicon Tortoises and all of that again even if you saved. That happened to me once even after I saved my game and everything, it seriously sucked after all of the hard work I put into defeating those Silicon Tortoises the first time and only to have to do it again when the Gil Snapper killed me. Oh, and here's a little something extra. In the very back of the Tracks of the Beast, there is an Urn. Open it, it has a key item in it called the Feather of the Flock. It allows you to talk to tamed Cockatrices like the once it the Giza Village that's there during the Dry. It's pretty cool if you're interested in what the Cockatrices have to say. They talk kind of funny but it's really cool. Oh, and about that Urn, be careful because there is a hidden trap somewhere in front of it. So, having a Bangle, which has the Libra ability to see hidden traps, equipped to one of your characters that is currently part of your party would be quite useful to avoid the trap since you'll be able to see it. However, if I am correct, I don't believe that the Libra technick would work because I think it only works on targeted things. I'm not sure about that but it'd be safer to go with a Bangle so you don't waist money on something that doesn't help. Anyways, good luck fighting the Gil Snapper.
