[PS2] Final Fantasy XII

Just popping in to say that FF XII is an awesome game, easily my favorite Final Fantasy since FF VI, and it's probably even better than that game.

I'm on my second playthrough right now (if for no other reason than that I accidentally broke the Barheim Key sidequest), and thanks to a few wicked Quickening chains and a border guard who's deathly afraid of Chocobos, I am in the interesting spot of having a nice new Zodiac Spear at level 20/21, before even going to the Golmore Jungle.

That's pretty neat.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

So?

Basically, after finishing the Tomb of Raithwall, you can get into the Mosphoran Highwaste via Nalbina Fortress. You can get the two guards out of the way by talking to them and to a woman who's standing nearby. After that, you can just chase them off by riding a Chocobo up to the guards.

After that, it's basically the same as getting the Zodiac Spear from the Necrohol normally, just MUCH HARDER. I basically killed the King Bomb with a heroic string of Quickenings, and then ran away from everything in the Necrohol, since all of the enemies there can kill your party members with one hit.

Having Fran run around doing 5x the damage of my Demonsbane-equipped party members makes the trouble quite worthwhile, though. ^_^

There's nowhere I can't reach.
