CC reporting for duty ^ ^
Oh, I think I am soo near the ending of the game already... dunno how my friend got 138+ hrs... I am only at 83hrs last time i checked~~ TIPS for the starters in the 1st chapter: 1) Talk to every talk-able person in town, because a few triggers later events. (If you understand Jap thats okay coz they dun say much anyway) 2) When going out to fight at the start make sure you use Vaan's skill "Steal" to grab some freebies from monsters and sell those. Coz you will need to get some good gears before you head to the next chapter. 4) To make the quest easier, get to about level 4-5 before you continue back into the town, use Save Point often  Heals MP and HP5) Many ppl had experienced this, but DON'T fight that rexsaurus in that zone... it kills you in 2 seconds. 6) When distributing LPs make sure you plan first, else you might need to reset your License Grid = restart Most amazing jew boots

Thanks Rydia ^ ^
So a battle related question~! - Whats your favourite Gambit combination? The last time I checked there are more than 200+ gambit functions~ and I still can't find out the ultimate gambit set. Most amazing jew boots |

As for the Gambit, mine is quite long... I will post once I get home! But yeah, for mine it goes with similar fashion as. 1) If Leader attacks the main boss -> One assist me, another attack the closest enemy 2) If anyone have 40% less HP cast Curaga and if the healer have less than 50% HP and more than 80% MP cast Hastaga on him/herself 3) If enemy weak against any element cast the inverse element on them. 4) Team up only if everyone's HP is below 30% 5) If MP is below 30% only use physical attacks. Thats about the basic gist of my Gambit This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

Okay, finally got the game done, and its time to start contributing back to forum of a fe simple things.
As promised to B4-Hunter, here is the accessory list completed with Value of item, Additional Effects, Locations and Jap-> Eng translation. Hopefully I can do the same to other equipments too *fingers crossed* Please forgive my poor english during the translation XD I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |

I went back to the sarus after level 52, so yeah 2 pokes from my party and he became our dinner
 @B4: There are a few more items that I didn't classify as accessory it is because they are seperated into different sections in the menu. Anyway, here is the completed Map of the whole FFXII world. There are some incorrect translations  I was speaking idiomatically. |

Hehe, SpookyChee has already started in the translation
I want to do something different Prolly specific FAQs (Weapon, Character Level up guide...etc) or something like that! Yeah, I have completed the game already, 86Hrs in game clocktime. As for the rating- * Graphic - 10/10 - Definetly the best looking game out there for PS2 RPG * Sound/Music - 10/10 - The music are just prefect, can't complaint * Plot - 9.5/10 - Dark and the bittersweet theme is what I like. The only complaint is that it could be longer. I minus a 0.5 is because there are still a few unexplained plot loop holes at the end, but other than that I am satisfied. * Control - 9/10 - The control is hard to get use to if you never played FFXI on PS2. The camera could be a little annoying at times, but other than that I have no trouble with it. Some functions may take time to get use to (e.g. Gambit system)* Overall - 38.5/40 - I have to say that FFXII stands on my Fav PS2 RPG game, and I WILL play it again after English version is released. I personally think Famitsu gives FFXII too much credit being the 'perfect' game. There are minor plot holes here and there, and also FFXII is made for more mature audience unlike other prev FFs What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |

Yeah I skipped most minor quests, for Clan levels... as you increase your Clan Level you can claim prizes!
If my memory serves me correctly, 2 ultima weapons requires you to do some of the Clan quest and 1 of them require you to FINISH and MAX out your Clan Level (Trophie) I only did what I am required to complete the game thats all, but today is my second time playing and I will be doing all side quests ^ ^ How ya doing, buddy? |

Whoa... dude you must have been battling a lot.. I didn't get my Lv3 Mist after level 40 or so >_<
Oh, as for my translations I will be working with the FF12trans Wiki people. They provided me a good place to share the works http://ff12trans.pbwiki.com/ We got a few ppl working on it as well, so check it out! Oh B4-Hunter, I have completed the accessory list and magic list translation... go to that website and see~ What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Member 1038 Level 17.93 Mar 2006

Haha cool~~ thats the best map eva ^ ^
Yeah they did the right translations... I changed a few places names too! How ya doing, buddy? |

Hey B4-H, how many trophies have you got in your clan room?
Right now I am spending much time trying to get all the "空賊の隠れ家 / Sky Pirate Hideout" trophies~ The last 6 gonna be impossible >_< There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Member 1038 Level 17.93 Mar 2006

Whoa, thats 1 handful of questions. If you have any doubts, just find some random FAQs/Walkthrough on the net with translations
ff12trans.pbwiki.com Q: How do I USE the the "special" movements I mean like what do I have to press to make more than 1hit? A: More than 1 hit? Mist Knack? or do you mean like double attack in 1 motion? Q: How do I get more summons? I only got the fire one the big fat one. A: You will get other 4 summons as you advance through the game, there are 7 optional summons that you will need to go through for quests. Q: what is the number next to the time clock? ( is it the number of steps I make during the game? is it points? can I use then? A: Yeah, I assuming you are pointing at the Step-Counter, what it does is just to record how many step you take and you can gain trophies in your Clan room. Q: what is RED and BLUE here A: Those colors indicate the effect on either Party's side or Enemies side. Blue defines the commands beneficial toward the party, where as Red is commands that usually means to damage the enemies. Q: does this have any point to be? A: That just like decoration to your rooms ^ ^!! No, I still haven't figure out whats the point of collecting those figurines for.... prolly just to look cool~ Q: please dont tell me how far in the game I am cos I dont feel that Im that far anyway A: With level 28, and heavy levelling.. you are prolly just about 36% through the game! Q: an this is just my chess table lol A: OH MY GOOD LORD! To be blunt... your build of characters isn't the most efficient ones... normally just focus on 2 weapon and 2 types of armor for each character... don't over do it (eg that picture) You will not have time to fill up all the blank spaces. PLAN WISELY. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

The last summon Zodiac(ゾディアーク) is a b**ch to get... >_<
You will need to satisfy the condition of 1) Get any 10 summons 2) and you need to 'find' the creature... which involves a lotsa walking. As for mist knacks, you will need to chain them up without breaks. E.g. Level 1 MK 3 times, you will get inferno... I am not really good at explaning mist knacks >_< hopefully someone else can assist ya in that one Also, as for your comment of 'full armor and weapon' *gasp* dude, are you gonna spent that long in FFXII? I have seen ppl spending 150hr+ and their license board isn't that completed yet... so I suggest ya just focus on specific build first... else you will find a lotsa trouble at the end games I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |

How ya doing, buddy? |

-------------------------------------
Mist Cart appears only if that character has a Summon or Mist Knack learned. Summons and Mist Knacks require a 'stock' of MP called a Mist Cartridge. Mist Cartridges are earned at a certain amount of MP. For instance, if your character has a max MP of 50, then they will get a Mist Cartridge (represented as a glowing orange bar) at 50 MP. As your characters learn more Mist Knacks/Summons, they can carry more Mist Cartridges, up to 3. So if your character has two Mist Cartridges learned, they can actually have an MP of 100 out of 50; at 100, they would have two Mist Cartridges. The number of Mist Cartridges required to use a particular Summon or Mist Knack varies. Another thing that can be done with Mist Knacks is links (renkei, 連携). While a Mist Knack is active, you can use another Mist Knack to combo for greater damage. All you have to do to do so is to press the button next to the character's name (for instance, if you use Van's Mist Knack and you have Balflear and Fran in your party, X might appear next to Balflear's name and T next to Fran's name). Pressing R2 will shuffle which button is assigned to what. The reason for shuffling is that sometimes you'll get a button that is assigned to "Cartridge" (カートリッジ). If you select Cartridge, each character temporarily gains back their Mist Cartridges, meaning they can do their Mist Knacks again. In other words, you can chain Mist Knacks as long as you can keep getting Cartridges to come up. However, the longer you go the time allowed to input the next command goes down, so it becomes harder and harder to combo. (Credit from EChang) ------------------------------------- Hope that helps What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |

Accessory (sp)
Accessory Level :8 Jap Name: 金のアミュレット Eng Name: Gold Amulet Ability: Doubles LP gain I think you can get that amulate by getting as a reward in a mob hunt quest or steal of 1 boss (forgot who) Most amazing jew boots |

Umm, yeah the mob hunt is a real bitch to handle, especially some mobs have requirements before they would appear. I actually went down and found out most requirements over this holiday break XD
The ones I find most annoying are... Pub Mob: - Wraith, even thou he is an E class monster but his attack really hurts low level characters - Vorpal Bunny, she runs away at every 10% damage <_< - Mindflare, 3 words "Requim of Time" <----- that stops all your party member for about 30 seconds and render all your buffs useless. Can things get any worse? - Marilis, LOL took me a while to find out what are the requirements for this one... - Robbie, his location ISN'T ON THE MAP. *sigh* Clan Mob: - Ultros, the perv monster, only comes out when all your party members are female - Ixion, dunno why he is only class S.. he should be class X or something... bloody tough. However love the rewards - Yazmotto, everyones favourite With whopper 40 million HP!!@ Sega, what level are ya after 70 hrs? Jam it back in, in the dark. |

Yeah Favnir was quite a challenge for me too... however if you remember to put shell, protect and reflect you will come out okay! THAT IS IF your level is similar to Favnir
I didn't find him hard prolly since I got most high levelled weapons and half of the ppl on my team are white magic casters <_< There's nowhere I can't reach. |
