IF you dont see that there is something available to press then RESCHUFFLE with R2.
IF you see a available button then press it. -Answer by:Rain17

Hey there, two problems here. One going for the gill snapper, and I can't find all the trees, got two of them and have been walking around forever, where the heck are they??
SEcondly, how exactly do the quickenings work, it just says out of time and nothing seems to have happened?
Thanks you wonderful people.
First to use quickenings make sure you are full of MP because they use all you MP, second when it says times up press the R1 and L1 buttons (can't remember which) and hold them to make your characters quickenings shift (if you have more than one quickening on each character) let go periodically and one of them will be highlighted in white. Make sure all characters have at least one full MP bar to maximize quikening use. Hope this helps. Good luck
As for quickenings, they are most efficient when three characters with three quickenings learned. However I have reached high level fusions such as windbursts, arc blasts, and torrents, with only two characters, or three non-fully developed characteres, and low level fusions like infenos or even cataclysms, are attainable with one character, or two underdeveloped characters. However you are wise to try to get all your characters to learn all of their quickenings.
Anyway have one character perform the initial quickening, and the names of all the active characters who can perform a quickening will appear. Each character will either be faded out, or white with a button next to them, and the name of a quickening, or "Mist Charge". If you choose a character with their quickening white, they will perform that quickening. Doing this you have created a chain of "2". If you do this again before time runs out you will create a chain of "3" and so forth. Choosing a character with "Mist Charge" by their name will increase the chances of characters being availiable, like shuffling, and that character will be availiable as well to perform a quickening. If not character is availiable, or you strategically want to shuffle for another reason press R2. The secret is doing this fast, using mist charges when availiable and time is there, and using a wide array of level 1, 2, and 3 quickenings.
Quickening Chains: Once you enter the quickening screen, you'll see a hit count, a list of party members with corresponding Charge names that have Triangle, Square, and X button symbols next to them (with three party members). To the right of that, you'll see orange circles, and to the left, you'll see the Shuffle button. Each orange circle diplays the "cost" of each Quickening and corresponds to one of the orange MP bars your character displays in the field. Each quickening will remove that much MP. Now, you're going to run out of MP that way, but that's where the "Shuffle" part comes in. If the Quickening name is gray, it is unavailable. Press Shuffle, which randomly selects one of the character's Quickenings. If it is still unavailable, press it again. Continue until "Mist Charge" is listed. It completely refills MP, letting that character use more Quickenings, building a chain. Repeat as needed. Last, but not least, if you use enough Quickenings, you will get a Concurrence. It's a special elemental attack that augments the other Quickenings' power and causes damage. All that's left is to see how many you can get in one chain. My record is 25, but I've heard people make it up to 27.
go to battle commands and pick mist then quickenings,the quickenings will work, depending on how you press the buttons,
fot example: You used Basch's quickening, Fulminating Darkness, to chain link, look to the south-east corner of the screen and look at the buttons, if there is no highlighted button, push the R2 to shuffle the quickenings, when a button is highlighted, press it imidiately, to make a chain quickening, I have a record of 31 chains, I think lady luck's helping me, hehehe!!!
Hope I helped!!!:-) -Answer by:finalfantasyman
this helped me alot it should help you fellow gamers

Um, I would gladly appreciate it if you answered this/these question(s):
I watched youtube and saw how strong dark matter could be (50000 dmg)... and in the bestiary of the game, I saw that you can get dark matter from reaper claw or reaper mage in the stillshrine of miriam. just one problem, I kept chaining, stealing (also w/theif cuffs), etc from them but no dark matter...How do I get it? Oh, and tell me if this has something to do w/ the canopic jar...
you can get Dark matter in the Necrohol of Nabudis where the Zodiac Spear is(the zodiac spear is surrounded with other chests containing Dark Matter), be sure to use Diamond Armlet if you are going to open the chests.( do the requirements on how to get the zodiac spear first to get Dark Matter)
Hope I helped!!! -Answer by:finalfantasyman

What's the Canopic Jar for? Is it for the Seer? Cause the Seer hunt appeared right after I bought the Jar...

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!!!
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
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
NOTE: keep in touch about leveling up first......... -Answer by:finalfantasyman

How can I get past the tomb of the dynast king, I need to get his sword somehow, .. though?



Im having probleming finding fafnic and pylraster n the hunts. ive did everything the guide told me. what am I doing wrong?
Fafnir can be found in Silverflow End (the dead end part) in Paramina Rift. When travelling to Silverflow End, DO NOT enter the area named 'Frost Brook'. This area will change the weather. Remember, you can only find him if the area is in a blizzard. Enter Paramina Rift from Mt Bur-Omiscace to cause a blizzard in the weather, but dont enter Frost Brook.
As for the Pylraster, he can be found in the Ridorannia Cataract. He is in the area where you defeated the old boss before you entered the 1st Ascent. -Answer by:SkyeWinters
fafnir is at silverflow's end, the small part of it. start from mt. bur omisace....then if there's a blizzard, good. DO NOT GO TO THE PLACE BY GOING SOUTH! Because that is the place where the ice elemental is and when you go to that place, the blizzard will be gone and you cant get it again by going back and forth. So take the routes you see at the left of your map...

TRUST ME!!!

I'm at the King Raithwall Tomb to get some sword.I'm really confused on what to do.There are two lock doors and a teleport device that doesn't work.Plz help me!!?
Find a good walkthrough! Google for "raithwall demonsbane ff12".
Be warned, the sword only appears about one time in eight, so you'll most likely have to do the run multiple times.
It took me about 45 minutes to get three Demonsbanes then it was only about 3 more hours of gameplay before I found a better sword...
You should be by the entrance to the Henne Mines. Go inside... Then follow the flow of the mines. The forked area with the Tyrannorox is a good landmark: defeat the tyrannorox in the straight path (Let me explain better: It forks like this |/. The straight path is where you should go [of course, the tilted one circles into the straight path, but you'd have to fight another Tyrannorox, so]) I think (I'm a bit fuzzy on this whole thing) you continue along the straight path and keep 'following the flow'...
Later you should come across a + shaped area with a switch. When you press the switch, a bunch of jellies should fall down (get the heck out of there). Backtrack to the Tyrannorox (I'm pretty sure this is where you continue) and go along the forked way.
I hope this helped. And I had to say where the Henne Mines where because I didn't know where you were...
Heh.
Before entering the 3rd ascent altogether, just do a bit of leveling up if your level is too low.
This way, you get goot valuable loot and your characters will gain a few levels.
After that, there are some helpful walkthroughs about which waystones to touch if you google it.

Can anyone please tell me where the 4 medallion pieces to open the door at the necrohol of nabudis where Chaos is?

..Ha. Final Fantasy doesnt have any cheat codes. Its good though, if it had cheat codes, it wouldn't be fun. You just need to be good at setting your gambits, good weapons, and a good brain, thats pretty much the way to go.

Will someone please tell me the best strategie to defeating Zodiark! I have faught him many times and I am level 85 with vann and fran and bach are 75.?
Hope I Helped ^^


Then go through Sagitarius gate 2 to reach teleport XII. This will take you to teleport XIV. Go south, one path leads you to the Leo gate key, you want the other path. This path leads to a platform with a horse, continue on. this platform leads you to platform with two horses continue on. Make sure when you reach the platform that has 3 exits, you arrive to it by one take the exit farthest from you and this will lead to a dead end platform where you can only leave the same way you came in.
There will be a horse waiting for you at the platform with a treasure chest ontop of a trap. Use float to not set the trap off. When you get this treasure chest you should recieve something. Excalibur appears after you get that chest. it appears in the same spot over the mine. Usually if you get the 2 gil treasure chest, hit the x again because excalibur usually appears after the 2 gil treasure chest

After you sneak in the treasure room and get arested and in the dungen.Then foured to fight the three guys with Balithier.How do you win?


-TomTM
Then go to the place with the doors. Open the door from the East of the Map. Then open the ancient doors clockwise and DO NOT open the hour doors. If you done that then go West to the west side of the map and there will be Hell Wyrm. -Answer by:Rain17

In the super treasure thing. what do you mean by "certain way"? I really dont get it.


How do I get the sword to move in the second tomb of raithwall?










I have 11 Espers and I am trying to get Zodiark but whenever I talk to Geomancer Yugelu he says "You have defeated Catoblepas?..."(I defeated Adrammelech). How can I get him to let me into the Henne Mines?

Ne one doing the hunts. after you kill the wraith and talk to the kid who has been hiding in the room, you're able to go inside and on the table u find a letter. Says something about a item split in 4 peices?? Also says something about turning off the water flow and following its directions to gain the item pieces... I don't rlly have a clue what to do with it.. Anyone know??????
for the 3rd piece you need to go to the grymsythe waterway. You must have completed the lost in the pudding hunt [petitioned by sorbet in southgate]Start by opening all the gates [all lights off] use the key to close gates #11 and #4, then open gate #11 and shut gate #3, then open gate #4. Walk around to the entrance to gate #3 and look on the ground for a shiny object, that's the 3rd shard.
After you've gotten all 3 pieces, go back to the hermit in old dalan's place. He says meet him in the deadlands later. First go to Charolottes Magics in Archades and talk to the hermit guy in there, next go to Old Archades and talk to Otto in the alley of muted sighs. He gives you the moonsilver medallion. Return it to the hermit in Charlottes magics.
Now you can go to Nabreus Deadlands an talk to the hermit near the entrance, he tells you to go to a hidden area of the map. Here's where it gets difficult, especially if you haven't completed the Roblon hunt. Go to the slumbermead and in the northwest corner, there is a hidden path not visible on the map, take it. This will take you to The Fog Mutters and then to Overlooking Eternity. In Overlooking Eternity, there are TONS of powerful dead bones. Look out if they gang up on you 3 or 4 at a time, it can be deadly. At the top is Roblon, a powerful mark who is even more powerful with tons of Dead Bones surrounding him. I had to fight 3 or 4 dead bones at a time, leave the area and keep coming back until they were all dead. Kill Roblon and approach the shrine, the 3 hermits will show up and give you 3 medallions.
To use these medallions, you must go to the Necrohal of Nabudis. The enemies inside the Necrohal are about the same as in the deadlands, but there are 3 locked doors where the medallions are used and inside are 3 very powerful beasts. The first one is a tiny rabbit named Fury, but look out, he moves about 10 times faster then your characters and once he gets critical he does massive combos that will kill even level 50 characters very quickly. I'd reccomend waiting until level 55 or so to approach him. In the 2nd door is the Humbaba Mistant who is slightly easier to defeat. In the 3rd door is the esper Chaos, a very difficult esper to defeat, but one of the best in the game.
like i said, its a long long quest, but worth it.
1st boss: Fury(it can be fought in the door where you put the medallion of knowledge)
2nd boss: Humbaba Mistant(it can be fought in the door where you put the medallion of bravery)
---------when you defeat them, the medallion of might can be used to fight an esper, it is the 3rd boss:
3rd boss: Chaos, Walker of the wheel(can be fought in the door where you put the medallion of might)
I can tell you the locations of the medaliion's pieces:
1st: Dalan will give it to some Roh, kenmu guy in his house.
2nd: In the hunt "Crime and Punishment" where you will fight a mark named "Orthos".NOTE: You must be all girls in your party for it to appear.
3rd: In a woman who lost her memory, she is in the fountain....NOTE: Talk to kytes for more details.....
4th: It is in Garamsyth Waterway, to get it, you must first:
1st: open all sluice gates.
2nd: open gates no. 11 and 4.
3rd: then open no. 11 and close no. 3.
4th: last, open no. 4.
Then go to the entrance of the no. 3 sluice gate, you should see a shiny object, it is the last piece of the medallion.
Go to necrohol of nabudis and open the other doors first, before the door of despair.....
WARNING: YOU MUST BE AT LEVEL 75+ TO DO THIS SIDE QUEST.....

Can you help me on fighting the first demojn wall in raithwalls tomb I tried to touch the flames but theres no mark appearing you know the thing that comes on top of your head when you open doors and terasures?
2. you cannot slow down the first demon wall with the flame technique. you can only do that for the second demon wall. I suggest being a higher level, its easier when your at level 60 and kill it with a poke. -Answer by:SkyeWinters
You can always come back later in the game, since Tomb Raithwall never gets closed or detroyed. So when your in the part of the storyline where your level 60, you can always come back to the tomb and poke the first demon wall, then it will die. -Answer by:SkyeWinters
