Final Fantasy 12 PS2 Q&A

A1:

Are you sure it wasnt one of your accessorys or weapons doing it or armor

A2:

First, why would you _want_ to get it off?

second, they wear off after time

A3:

Check your armor and accessorries... you might have something equipped that has haste on it.

A4:

Wow a haste spell that doesnt end hmm sounds like I would want my chracters to have this glitch (at least thats what it sounds like) but if you really want to get rid of that status effect, you would need an item called "chrono tear" . I think you could also use a remedy if you have a remedy 3 license on the person using the remedy to cure them of that effect.

A5:

First off I think you mean slow but (hast is good) if not guest cast slow on your self and wait for that to ware off and counter clock wise if you mean slow

A6:

Casting dispel on yourself works for any time status effect as well

A7:

I found a possible glitch in the game. I left my game paused over night with four characters having the protect spell cast on them. When I returned the next day I continued to play and found that still 7 hours into it, (having saved and turned it off multiple times at this point) my four characters still have the protect status on them. I wonder if it is the same thing. I'd rather not try it again in case it goes away. My characters have died and been warped away and still always come back with protect even when all other statuses go away, not even dispel magics take it away. Chrono tears are only good for dispeling stop and no remedy license will get rid of haste. The only thing that might work is casting slow or try recasting haste on them to possibly overwrite the glitched haste.

Joe -Answer by:MightbeCloud

A8:

You can use dispel or dispelga on your whole party.

I have a question of mine: ARE YOU HAPPY THAT "HASTE" WAS IN ALL OF YOUR PARTY AND IT NEVER REMOVES??? If I were you, I will don't remove it. -Answer by:finalfantasyman

A9:

This is a blessing from the final fantasy gods! DONT REMOVE IT!

A10:

I have a glitch too but im not complaining all of my people have protect on them even if they die...its been like that for weeks.its very helpfull tho. =)

or the power will run out. how do I get out and go to the surface?

Question from: Guest

A1:

Ah! your at the barheim passage quest! I'll tell you how!

first kill the battery mimics then kill the other mimics, cast blizzard on them for a high damage and an easy win, then follow the path going for the No.4 whatever it is(forgot, sorry) and fight the mimic queen then after that your out!

hope I helped!!!:-) -Answer by:finalfantasyman

A2:

Ok. Go to the room in where there are those frogs hopping around that big lake. Turn so your back is to the water and look at the wall closely. There is a path you go up. After you go through the path you will reach the mimic queen so make sure you save the game and level up before you try escaping.

A3:

If the charge comes lower than 30% then zombies and ghosts will appear. These may be too strong for your party, plus they can out-number you, so just make sure than the charge is high when your making your way through the passage. You have to find the gate switch, which opens the south gate. To do that, enter the area thats a little west of the gate, you may have to fight/flee from flans. Further on the passage you'll soon face a boss, it's recommended your party level's average is a little higher than 8. -Answer by:IHasAChocobo

A4:

At the end you have to fight a big monster called a mmic queen. Guess what it looks like. Yes a mimic. To beat this thing beat the little spiders around it. Every so often it will revive itself and make another little spider. when it is beginning to do a special move flee as far away from it as you can. To get there beat each spider then run back to the save crystal. Never open a gate before you kill a spider because I did this and it went dark and I only just escaped from the powerful monsters. -Answer by:FFobssesive

A5:

You must kill all the Batterie mimics in every area. If you see that the energy is going down then search quick where the mimic could be. The last mimic is in the area where you activate the switch to open the gates that will lead you to a gate stone. After that there will be a fight against the mimic queen. Beat her and you're free again. :)) -Answer by:Rain17

Where can I find ixion, the seer, yazmat and the doom dragon????

Question from: experatris(80)

A1:

Ixion is in penumbra. after defeating the pharos use the elevator to go to penumbra. If there are no monsters Ixion is there. If there are monsters leave and come back.
The seer is in abyssal. You must beat penumbra and umbra to get to abyssal at the bottom of the pharos. use the elevator to get there after completing both penumbra and umbra.
Yiazmat is in ridorana cataract colosseum. Good luck, he's tough.

A2:

Ixion can b found on the 3 lowest lvls of the Pharos
The Seer is a hard one to reach as u have to do certain things but he's in an uknown area. on the first floor theres an elevator take it down to Suberra (i guess) defeat phoenix and light all 4 alters of night, then go back to lvl to heal ur characters now use the elevator again gives u a second floor to go to - once again light all alters up to their max, third floor is same as second floor then go back to lvl 1 save game and Unknown appears on the elevators list thats were the seer is.. he summons 4 monsters in the battle and u got to focus on them b4 the seer is touchable.
Yazmat is in the Colosuem in Pharos
and im still looking for doom dragon myself

A3:

In the Pharos is where Ixion and the Seer are, Ixion's on the circular part of Umbra or Penumbra, try to get it on Penumbra by going up and down the elevator until there's no monsters, then wait 30 seconds and Ixion will appear, The Seer is on the bottom of the Subterra in an "Unknown" floor, you need to light up all the orb pedistals to get it though on every floor until they're full

A4:

Ixion: In Pharos at Ridorana in the Penumbra (you NEED to finish the story past Pharos in order to gain access to Penumbra) When you teleport to Pharos, you will want to go to the elevator and then take it down. You will also want to use float since there are "swarm" traps which, when triggered, cause a HUGE swarm of monsters to attack at once. (all high level monsters)

Seer: Pharos at Ridorana, Penumbra in a location called "Unknown". Please note that Shadowseer has the ability to summon the bosses you've previously defeated. He attacks you while the boss attacks too. Make sure you're a high level for this.

Yiazmat: has about 50 MILLION HP (completely serious) so make sure that you are a really high level (I recommend 90+) and this battle takes a long long long time (the shortest time that I've seen is 2 hours) He is found also at Ridorana Cataract inside the collliseum. The hunt will only appear once you have defeated all (or all but one) of the previous marks, AND you've defeated Hell Wyrm.

Doom Dragon, I'm assuming is the same as Hell Wyrm? If it is, then you can find Hell Wyrm after defeating Vyrral. Vyrral drops a dragon scale, which the Viera guest gives to you. Once you have this, you can go to the NorthEastern most portion of Cerrobi Steppe and find Windmill #10. You will get a short scene with the Wyrm Philosopher, who has been hindering the poor moogle's progress with windmill repairs, who gives you the Ageworn Key in exchange for giving him the dragon scale you hold. Turns out that he was doing research on the wyrm but fell asleep - and while he was asleep, you slayed the wyrm! Once you have the key, you can access the Hall of the Wroth God. In order to gain access though, you will need to enter through the Ascetic Door. If you haven't already done this part, you will want to go to "Destiny's March" and run a full circle from SE, SW, NW, NE, you should see a message that you hear a door opening. If you go towards the west, you'll find a secret area that you haven't explored yet. Follow the path around (watch out for the traps - there are a lot) and you'll see a door at the end. Use the Ageworn Key to access the area and be prepared for a LONG fight (not as long as Yiazmat though XD) Boss has about 8,500,000HP. But you CAN take a breather from this fight and when you choose to come back to this boss, you will find that he has NOT regained HP. You pick up where you left off :)

Anyone know the easiest way to kill Exodus in the Mosphoran Highwaste? The basturd kills me too much with that Scathe spell and I can't get any good hits on him when he's almost dead.

Question from: Guest

A1:

Get your party to lv 40-45.Note: I barely beat him. After Exodus attacks he pauses for a moment. At this time run far from him and use haste so that you can cura and raise faster. Make sure you have someone with range waepons so that one of your Characters survive his special attack.
When he puts up the barrier where he cant take damage just wait it out and survive until the barrier is gone the continue the attack. You can also power up your party with haste protect etc... before you enter and fight him Note make sure you set your gambits so the you may have an advantage.

A2:

Get to the 40-45lv.Or if u havent so high lv, try to use quickening.U need 3 combos with 10 or more hits.U can put in party 3 ch.then use a quick. then change one of the 3 ch., put another ch with full magic,use a quick....

A3:

I suggest you augument your characters before your fight with Exodus, and I recommend you be at least level 40 - 45. Cast Regen, Protect, Shell, Haste, Bubble, Bravery and Faith. Faith, Regen and Shell wouldn't be really necessary, but Protect, Haste, Bubble and Bravery will come in handy since the scenario would be more melee rather than magic. And Haste would be useful since the time lags during the fight and Protect and Bubble would save your life from that Flare attack he has. I also suggest you have at least one member who is equipped with a weapon that's strong enough and can strike more than once. And a bubble belt will do. Now, right when you fight, send your most powerful characters in while you cast Dispel to get rid of his Reflect status. Since you'd be augumented with Protect and Bubble, each time a character gets hit by a Flare, cast Curaga / Curaja. When Exodus is about to die, he would be immune to physical and magick attacks. Try to stay alive and keep your second team ready. If you've managed to stick around long enough, and his barrier goes down, attack him with all you got. A mist combo would do if you have enough mp. But if your first time goes down, then just bring in your second and unleash full force.

I also recommend you use these Gambits:
Ally: any - Raise / Arise.
Ally 50% HP - Cura / Curaga / Curaja.
Foe: status Reflect - Dispel.

Items can't be used so don't bother putting Phoenix Down in the Gambit selection.

A4:

Get to level 50 at least for an easier fight. The worst thing about this fight is that Item use is prohibited, so Haste + a powerful spellcaster + powerful healing magic (Curaga/Curaja) is a must. I had to use two teams fighting him; one main attack team and the other to cure/raise the dead members of the main attack team. Since Exodus's Scathe could only be targetted at one party member, you can just replace the fallen attacker with someone of the second party, then have him/her use Rise/Arise on that one dead ally. After your dead ally has risen back from the dead, put him/her back in the attack party and replace his/her curer. Rinse and repeat for the other fallen party members. Quickly use quickenings on him once his HP is low -- you wouldn't want him to activate a paling and become immune to physical attacks.

A5:

Go in with haste, shell, protect, and bubble on every character. hopefully you are a higher level (40+) so scathe won't kill you in one shot.

A6:

The best thing to do when any esper is immune to something, is to attack with something it isn't immune to or to just sit back and heal. You could also alternate between massive healing and attacking with something that works. For example, when the Zalera Esper is being a little sissy and shields itself from attacks, you can still use guns to hit it while your other characters can heal and cast support magicks.

A7:

To be honest, keep attacking till his health is low. To deal with Scathe, all you have to do is have everyone run away, or just at least one person so you don't lose the whole party. Keep attacking him, sooner or later the Paling will come up. Kill him with magick (dispel the reflect before you start casting your magick), or you can wait till the Paling is down. I really say when he is about to pull off Flare or Scathe, have a Raise ready on the target, and by the end, you'll be safe. :D Good luck with the fight!

How do you beat Belias and how do you get lots of gil?

Question from: Guest

A1:

Let Vossler and Vaan do all the attacking and you sit back and keep them healed. Use potions instead of spells for healing as potions are faster to use. Most important: Do not allow your characters to remain in OIL status! This will cause massive damage from Belias' fire spells. If you find yourself badly hurt after he casts Firaga, use Cura to heal everyone. He should be a pushover if you are level 18 - 20.

A2:

Belias isn't that hard to defeat. Just have your aktive party members have at least 2 quickenings each and use it when it is 50% damaged. Have the highest possible quickening chain and it just might kill it... If you are at a decent level of kourse.

Gil is pretty easy to kollect anywhere from early in the game as later on. All you need is find any monster dropping valuable loot and just keep chaining this type of monster.

-Vamp

A3:

Beat Belias by brute force. He attacks very slowly, so you can most likely get quite a few really good and powerful whacks in before he attacks. If you need to, however, do a quickening chain if you have it. Getting lots of gil... you can steal off of monsters besides just what they drop - make sure that you sell it so that you can get gil for it. Later in the game.... the loot that the creatures drop is VERY good and sells for high amounts of gil. Don't forget about going on hunts - a lot of the time, part of the reward is gil - later in the game there is a rare reward that is 500,000 gil. :) -Answer by:Koishii

A4:

Well I cant help you with belias because when I fought he was so easy but I can help you with money raking well just go with the flow on the story line. when you reached golmore jungle just follow my phanther hunter on the submited cheatand hints oh before you do this you want to raise your level first for easy killing -phanter hunter

A5:

Well about your gil problem I have a very food solution!!!early in the game in the lhusu mines there is a bridge where only skeletons appear who have 800 hp each. keep killin them to get really good loot like a bone fragment which sells for bout 200 gil each I sold like 50 at one time and I got all the stuff I needed

OKAY, what with the water way thing, how do i solve this puzzle? i got that old dusty letter, but i dont get the waterway. what am i soposed to do??? oh and is there any other little side quest, besides hunts, that i can do for people in rabanastre? like finding those google things to walk in the sandstorm and fight that realy huge dainasour, which by the way i havnt beaten yet. is it worth it?

Question from: Guest

A1:

You need the Sluice Gate key, and in order to do that you have to accept the Flan Mob Hunt in the tavern Hunt Board. The Petitioner is Sorbet, the Teleport Moogle in front of the Rabanastre Aerodome in the West Gate. Defeat the Flan and acquire the key.

Sidequests are aplenty in the game. The best way is just to constantly re-visit settlements after every major event and talk with everyone twice; sometimes their second reaction is different from the first. Many of the sidequests available are integrated with the actual plot, though, so you won't have too much trouble finding any.

A2:

The dinosaur in Dalmasca Westersand is like another boss. Talk to Monlblanc at the clan for a reward. Yeah it's worth it .... because it's easy ... just follow the instructions they give you. .... The Garamsythe Waterway thing however ... refers to a piece of a medallion. I never found an item ... but I did find an ESPER! Again just follow the directions, (check your map and make sure you account for the sluice gates) and you should find two more switches deep in the waterway. Open the east and southeast sluices first, and I believe it's the fourth zone down. Again, just follow the directions.

A3:

I beat the dinosaur and no its not worth it in my opinion. he ws incredibly easy and you get nothing from him or the side quest, just the little part of the desert that once had a sandstorm is gone and now eastersand and westersand is connected... whoo hoo...

A4:

I need to know how to do this also. how do you solve this puzzle, its driving me crazy Xo

A5:

You must be level 25+ to easilly beat the dinasour. It will give you 1000+ exp

A6:

Yes, sidequests are worth it. They reward you with extra EXP/LP/Gil/inventories, such as rare equipments and loot. The latter are valuable for making high-grade equipments at the Bazaar. You may still find these rare loot from enemies, but it'll take more time.

A7:

The Earth Tyrant.... Is so easy. The Dinosaur in the Westersand is an optional boss named Earth Tyrant, and he is worth the fight. He won't drop anything but you can steal from him, you get the Tyrant Hide and the Tyrant Bone. Plus your reward from Montblanc in the Clan Hall, which is 1200 gil, not much I know but gil is gil. And since the Tyrant Bone sells for 1233 gil, and the Tyrant Hide for 549 gil you can make a good bit of money off this optional boss..... Oh! And also, after you beat the Earth Tyrant, go to the Phon Coast to find that Archadian Bangaa, Monid I believe was his name, and see just how greedy bangaa are....

A8:

I beat the earth tyrant when I am level 65 with my tournesol and exculibur in .......... 30 counts

A9:

He madellion side guest you have to get the key after killing the white Flan then go back to the moogle and she'll ask you 2 wait while she gets her brother to fix it. she'll give you the key then you go back into the waterway. shut off the the thats open from the beginnign. then you close gate 11 and 4. then you open gate 11 and close gate 3, then you open gate 4 and on the out ring you should c something shinny on the ground

Where will you find the Medallion of Love in Nabudis?

Question from: Guest

A1:

You can't find the medallion of love inside Nabudis. You can use it in Nabudis, but you find it in the Nabreus Deadlands after completing a few sidequests first. You use the medallion of love on the door of loathing in the center of the hall of the ivory covenant. It is closest to the necrohol entrance from the deadlands.

A2:

In achades there is a couple sitting by the brirge in lower achades. talk to them after you have done everything you need to do there and they will give it up. something about they are going to get married or something.

A3:

You do not find it in nabudis. first you must go to archades magick shop then talk to one of the disciples of that dude with the long name(Ma'kenrou...i think that's how you spell it). then he will tell you he sold the medallion to someone. talk to the people near the entrace of the shop and they will be talking about a guy who ran off to marry someone in old archades. go to old archades and find a blond hair guy sitting near a lady. talk to him hell give you the medallion. so you go back to the magicks shop and give it back to the disciple and there you go Medallion Of Love. enjoy =D

A4:

It's in Archades, you got to go to the Technick place first and talk with the dog like thing there and he'll tell you to go get the medallion and in the Old Archades there's a guy proposing to a woman and he'll give you the Medallion back with a chunk out of it, bring it back to the dog guy you talked to earlier and he'll give you the Medallion of Love
