DarkCaolen

Great work! You should really consider helping out w/the FFX section on this site.

I would love to :) ffx is the game i know the most
about there has also been another section by me with scanned
pictures for more aid hope they help people :)

thankyou

when i try to do the cheat for the 0:0:0 seconds for the choco race, it says to leave at 1:55, and get hit at exactly 2:00, but when i try to get hit at 2, the time stops at 1:59.9, so its impossible for me to get the cheat... please help! :confused:

If you're referring to the cheat that I think you're referring to, I read that cheat only works in the Japanese version of the game.

love the info, hate Lulu's task though, was an idiot, got so psyched for 200 avoidances but cracked at 198, will attempt later...

Edit: Thanks Agent0042

Once you have gotten these crests/sigils, you will be able to get Break Damage Limit like you have been asking about in the other threads.

is it just me, or is the celestial weapon quests the hardest sidequests ever in a final fantasy game....i mean honestly...under 0.0 seconds....200 dodges....without cheating/guides, who would figure this crap out?

200 dodges is damn boring, but not that difficult to do once you know the trick. 0.0.0 is hella hard but I did eventually get it. But what's really freaking annoying is @$#! Macalania Woods Butterfly Quest. Afters hours upon hours of trying, I still cannot get that one.

That butterfly quest is damn annoying! the grid map in the upper left corner of the screen doesn't even help. seriously, it's just chance to run past a red 'cause there's little or no way to tell how to avoid it!

Yeah. And I actually managed to get the first half after a lot of trying, but the second half has held me up for the longest time. And I even know where the butterflies are and stuff, but I still can't do it.

If you get Auron's ultimate wepon (The Mesurme) and power it up it allows Yojimbo to brake the damage limit... he can hit all enemys for 99,999 for me!!!

for the butterfly thing, I can get them all in plenty of time except for the second to last one. There are 3 butterflies on the left turn that don't move until you do making it damn near impossible to do it. And what is the trick to avoiding the lightning?

There's a very precise pattern to the lightning that you can work out by waiting for the flashes. I personally prefer to the dodging in the area just after the Travel Agency. That seems to be the easiest place for me.

I found it rather simple to finish the Butterfly Game. The trick I used for 200 dodges was to stay near a save point. I would dodge about five to ten bolts in a row, then go save it. But, I don't know if the count resets when you have to reset the game because you did get struck. Nevertheless, I dodged over 200 bolts without having to reset and saving plenty of times.

Sometimes on my file, the lightning would usually strike within 5 seconds of each other. Another time I did it, they would strike every 20 or 30 seconds. I can't remember which one it was though, but thats how I dodged over 200.

The Chocobo was hard at first, but once you get the controls down, its rather simple.

As far as I know, the tally resets if you don't do 200 at a clip, if you leave and go save. Did you ever get the Venus Sigil?

Yes. I have every sigil and crest for all seven characters. Need help with acquiring any of them?

Nope, I'm good. Thanks.

I need help!!

at the thunder plains, does the counter stop/reset if u save the game? i've been following someone's advice by dodging some thenn saving, and dodging again. but when i went to collect the Venus sigil, it says in the book ( in the agency) that i only dodged 100. I remember i saw that on the first try and did it about three more times. i know that i did over 300 dodges but kept saving in between, but it only says i've gone 100 strikes. am i doing something wrong??:(

Fire that person. They gave you some bad, bad advice. The counter resets.

ohh Barnicles!!

u mean i have to get 200 in a row without ever saving it? damn i probably done over 400 by now. stupid save sphere.:(

I dodged about 210 straight bolts, and I saved every few minutes. Sometimes I would dodge 5, then save...others I would go for 10, then save. I must have saved the game at least 25 times, and I still recieved the Sigil when I went back to the travel agency.

This is how I did it:

After you leave the travel agency, go up one screen. The save sphere is by the second (I think) bolt tower. I ran to the save sphere, and waited for the lightning to strike. I ran around a little bit, so I encountered quite a few battles. After every battle, which earned me about an average of 7 dodged bolts in a row, I would save the game. Then I would repeat that sequence until I had about 210. It didn't reset the counter for me when I saved it. If you LEAVE that screen that you are dodging the bolts in, I think the counter resets. I'm pretty sure that you have to stay in the same screen while dodging the 200 consecutive bolts.

EDIT: When I actually accomplished this feat, I never once got struck by a bolt, and I never once reset the game (hard or soft). But I did, however, save often. It took be over two hours to do it.

cool thanx alot!! i'll try that next time.:)

I know where your talkin about, that's where i dodged the lightening bolts too. i would dodge 5 and then save. but whenever i got hit i would hit the reset button on the PS2. that's probably where i went wrong. Well thanx again. i hope it works this time. I want that Beak limit on that little onion knight!!;)

Did you do a hard reset or a soft reset?

hard (pushing the reset button)
soft (holding down L1, L2, R1, R2, select, and start)

I did a hard one. I honestly never knew there was a soft reset, until u just told me.

Well, I would think that a hard reset would have a better chance of reseting the counter than the soft reset. Then again, I am not sure about this, since I didn't reset the game

Phew! I did it!!:D

it took me three tries but i got 200 finally. i didnt save or reset just picked a spot near the beginning of the plains. when i got to 189 my hand was shakin so much i almost died, but it was all worth it.:)

You got me Tiduslives. That's something I didn't think of - using the save point in that section. And using the lightning tower for shelter, more importantly. But like you said, the saves ultimately don't mean much, since you never reset. I'm pretty sure hard/soft reset is all academic. If you don't save, then nothing is saved, but either way, both would have the same effect in that resetting causes you to lose count. Now, that I'm almost sure of.


Oh, and congrats, Skittles. Have you tried the Butterfly challenge yet? That's the one I can never master.

dont even start on that one. damn butterflies!! the time always runs out on me, its so freakin annoying. i can never pass the red ones and i end up in fights, i'll try it again later.

Right now i'm working on getting Tidus' sigil at the Calms lands ( i know, i know, i'm way behind u guys). but anyway do u guys have any hints/tips for that one?? I've been practicing for awhile but i've gotten as low as 2 secs. I'm gonna keep at it though.

Well there isn't really much tips I can give you for this one.

I think when you are trying to finish the last butterfly game, there are red butterflies that just float there. But when you get close enough, and try to move past them, I think they move the way that you do.

This is what I did:

When I got to these red butterflies, I tried to notice their pattern. They move the way that you do. I think when I finally got past them and beat it, I went in a direction that would almost certainly look like you were heading straight into them. But somehow, I sqeaked through, and I beat it.

That's really all the help I can give you for this one right now

Good tip, Tiduslives. I'd try it except that I've given up trying. I don't even like Kimahri.

Chocobo training? If you've gotten it down to 2 seconds, then you're good enough to get 0. Continue to have patience, stay the course on those balloons (get as many of the easy initial ones as possible) and stay away from those birds and you've got it.

Has anyone else noticed that from the starting point of where you begin with those cursed butterflies that there is one not far behind you. cause im always one short so i went the other way and there was a butterfly there.

Yeah, I know about that butterfly and I still can't master that infernal challenge.

Im can just about do it but i am about 1 or 2 seconds to short. before i noticed that other butterfly i was swearing and cursing about where that last butterfly was.

i also hate trying to dodge those lightning bolts. 200 is a hell of a lot to dodge.

Getting Tidus' sigil is really hard, cz i cant even get close.

all the other sidequest i havent had any trouble with they were pretty easy.

its just those 3 i had the most trouble with

ive been plaing my game and i seem to be stuck at the point where its right after you find the husband and he goes back. their child isnt with them, but i travel up the road where youre supposed to get the cloudy mirror changed and the kid is at the beggining of the path instead of at the glowing rock where he should be. i dont know ive ive done something wrong or just pissed off the game but if you have any advice or any idea of what to do could you tell me. thanks

Try talking to one or more of them and see if you can get anything to change. Or go examine the place where you use the mirror.

it's easy to get them. just the world champion and the celesrial mirror is hard

How about getting the mirror is easier then the Butterfly mini game for example?

I am so desperate to get the sigil for Tidus!!! i tried like 200 times and the best time was 7!!!! i am almost destroying Square's building cause this is outrageous! please someone give me hints! how did you do it?!?!?!?!? winning the lottery is easier

I have a problem.

I'm working on collecting all the celestial items, and right now I'm on the spirit lance. The problem is that only one cactuar stone allows itself to be activated. One. In the entire North plains. Any thoughts?

i have a problem too...im trying to get Auron's Celestial weapon... and i'm trying to capture the Qactuar on Thunder plains but i cant find this bastard...i walked this whole place upside and down and nothing...what should i do?

Did you already activate one cactuar stone, minimum? I have fought at least 30 qactuars...ugh. Activate a stone, then they'll appear.

Thanks! but i already got everything and beat the game...lol hehe

this 0:0.0 score thing for tidus' weapon.. how am i suppose to do it i don't get it.

I have been capturing all the beasts to get the sigil or crest or whatever and all I have left is 2 Varunas. I can't find a single one. I've cruised around the dungeon and the city on sin's head but not one appears. Anyone have any ideas?

Try roaming around some different sections and see what you come up with. Sometimes the monster catching is really quirky - you just have to be patient. If the other enemies are wasting your time, then escape / Flee from them to speed things up.

So I looked at my items and I did have the thing I needed for auron to break damage limit. I really thought I would remember getting that. I never did find the varunas but I don't care now! :) I sold back my capturing weapons. Now that I can Break Damage Limit with 4 of my folks I'm gonna kick some butt in the arena and try to get the rest of them.

Oh yeah, I gave up on the stupid side-quest to get Lulu's full Onion Knight, so I used a totally empty 4-slot morphing mog and made my own. It is called Soul of Mog and it is

Break Damage Limit
Overdrive->AP ( I HATE her overdrive)
One MP Cost
and i can't remember the last one, maybe Magic+20%

I will probably have to forge them for Tidus and Kimhari too, but I know I can get Wakka's.

Okay, but just remember that any that you create yourself may seem as good as the Celestial Weapons, but don't have the same special / hidden powerup that allows the Celestial Weapons to do more damage. I'd say at least try for Tidus's --- the chocobo training is actually really annoying, but I still usually end up beating it sooner or later. The butterflies - forget them - I'm amazed at anyone that's actually able to beat that particular sidequest.

Only do the butterfly the sidequest and lightning dodging if you feel like having a complete set of Celestial Weapons. It's highly unlikely that you'll need to actually use those weapons. They are the two most annoying sidequests. Monster Capturing is just tedious and required lots of patience.

You should get Tidus' and Wakka's since their overdrives are very useful. The Chocobo racing really isn't that hard; you should crack it within the hour.

Celestial Weapons have hidden abilities, one of them being to always deal 99,999 with a regular hit (except for certain characters if their HP is low). Even if the enemy has 255 defense and Protect, it will still do 99,999.

Ok, so, I don't have break hp limit on anyone but Auron right now. Is that why I am not getting the max hit with the celestial weapons that I have? Heck, Auron hits about 40-50k right now, but I've only just gotten his weapon and I've been fighting in the Arena. How do you get Break HP Limit for the rest of the gang? I couldn't see where I could add it to anything. It isn't even on the list. ???

If you check out <A HREF="http://forums.ffshrine.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=15304">this</A>, it should answer all your questions.

Aha! Thanks for pointing to that, Smokey. I don't currently have an wings to discovery. !!

I've gotten all the sigils and what not.

Butterfly Quest and Chocobo Races were annoying!!!

Blitzball, Monster Capturing, and Cactuar Finding took a long time.

All the others wern't that difficult. (Just Yuna and Lulu's lol)

I have got all the Sigils ad crests too, that bl**dy butterfly hunt *Glares at whoever invented it* it took me all night to do it literaly i started at 9pm and finally finished it at about 3am.
Im trying to find something else to do apart from max all my guys stats, i think that ive done everthing else

man that are all easy, all xept dodge those damn lightning bolts ... its almost impossible, iv seen a whole bunch of tips, turn the lights off, and turn thesound way up and watch for the light andsound b4 u hit X ... but its rediculas .. the rest are easy ... oh exept that butterfly one ... for kimari ... thats hard also ...

You had trouble with that stuff? How dare you call yourself a god? I should smite you to show you what a god can really do.

hah, i got kimaris eventually .. but i never got the lighting one for lulu .. damn thing .. but ya im and a god, and if u insult me ill have to smite ur ass ... but btw ill show u up at any ff game ;) lol

for tidus's one with the chocobo you have to ge tas many balloons as you can and hit the least amount of birds in the shortest time

WOW! Really?! Are you serious? I never woulda woulda guessed it!

Holy crap, you're good! Will you teach me how to play games sometime? Let's start with Pac-Man. I never could figure out how to turn corners. Or maybe Pong. I'd love to know how you make the paddle move.

alright tankies

Is it just me or does anyone else find blitzball to be the most stupid frustrating and challanging thing in the entire game (besides the 200 lightning bolts thing thats just mean what kind of sick mind comes up with something like that??)

Nah, blitzball's pretty good once you figure out the basics and build up a decent team.

Is it just me or does anyone else find blitzball to be the most stupid frustrating and challanging thing in the entire game (besides the 200 lightning bolts thing thats just mean what kind of sick mind comes up with something like that??)
Try dodging 200 consecutive bolts in a row without Armor that has the 'No Encounter' ability.

how do u build up a better team????

Not really the thread to discuss that. Try checking one of the other blitzball threads, or a guide, or start a new thread.

Those who want to know what really did the trick for me with the 200 lightning bolts was to count in increments of 20 meaning count 20 lightning bolts then the next one instead of counting 21 start at one again and so on and so forth. the reason i think this works so well is becuase it calms your nerves a bit and doesnt make you think its 181 it makes you think its only 1 which makes stay calm. Also dont tap the x button just hit it when it flashes and dodge in the area north of the travel agency where the road forks and youll get this done in 20-30 minutes.

Well, if you rapidly tap the X button, then you are not going to be able to dodge the lightning bolts. It doesn't work that way, and like you said, you must push the X button only after you see the flash. I said this a while back, but I just ran around a save sphere and would dodge maybe 10 at a time. Then I would go save my progress, and start over. That really calmed my nerves down, but it took a few hours because I had a bunch of random encounters thrown into the mix as well.

if you save it resets

if you save it resets
It doesn't reset; well, I know that it didn't reset when I saved the game. I must have saved my progress over 30 times, and as soon as I counted 200+ consecutive dodges, I received Lulu's prize.

i read online that if you save and then turn it off, you have to do it all over again. geeze i feel bad for peple who sit there and do it w.o a break, they musta had some sorta headache,

well i dont know if urs is a different version than mine or something but if i saved it would reset. and i did it without a break and i did better than when i did take a break cuz i didnt lose concentration but like i said if you count in incriments of 20 it makes it mush easier.

i got a headache from doing it. i did the first 100, and my brother did the next 100

Well yeah, I know for a fact that if you save the game and then reset it or turn it off for a short break, then the count does reset. I had a headache after I did it, because it's not good on the eyes to stare at the screen for hours straight because you are so worried about screwing up something.

it took you hours?!?!?! it took me like 15- 20 minutes

it took you hours?!?!?! it took me like 15- 20 minutes
Yes, it did take me hours. Probably the fact that I ran around a lot while I was dodging, because I wanted to level up as well. The Thunder Plains are a nice spot to level up during that point in the game, so I figured I would go ahead and kill two birds with one stone. I didn't just stand there and only push the X button; I did a lot of random encounters as well. Now that I look back on it, I really wish that I had the 'No Encounters' ability equipped, so that would have made it go by a heck of a lot faster.

wow. i would ahve the worst headache. it took me like 30minutes to and hour

Well... as everyone who was in chat this morning knows, I finally got the futhermukkin' Venus doo-dah... now I've "only" got the Chicken race and the Flutterby hunts to do... fun fun fun! any tips/hints/downright CHEATS'll be gladly appreciated!!!

Chocobo race --- Try to get a good start by getting as many of the opening balloons as possible. If you don't get a good total on these, you're probably finished, so just hit the button to reset the race and try again. Be careful of the birds --- don't get so focused on the balloons that you let too many birds hit you, but at the same time, keep a good balance of balloons as well.

Flutterby hunt --- Do not do it. It is hell --- unless you are way more skilled than me, you will spend hours trying to master this and have nothing for your success. IF you do eventually do it, you get the Sigil for Kimahri and who cares --- Kimahri is sucky in battle anyway.

ok im lost now....so all i rele care about are how do i get the final weapons for tidus, yuna n auron....tidus is the chocobo race thing...but what about auron n yuna.

i also dont know what to do for the Celestial mirror ive got the cloudy mirror and im in that forest (i think) but thrs no camp and i cant find that man or his missing kid....im a complete noob when it comes to ff10 i only got it at xmas.....so any suggestions?

Dyne, in Macalania Woods South (the entrance with the save sphere), you should see a mother and her son. Talk to them and they'll talk about the father. Find the father at the campsite. There's no actual camp, it's just the site where your party had a rest after fighting Spherimorph. If you don't know where that is, after talking to the mother and son, take the right path onto the next screen. Keep walking right and onto the next screen, then take the top path. The father should be there if you talked to the mother and son.

Go back to the entrance and you should see the mother and father. Keep talking to them until they talk about their missing son. Walk up the crystal path on the left and follow it to the next screen. When you get to the fork in the path, talk to the son and he'll let you through, providing that you talked to his parents enough times. You can power up your Cloudy mirror if you talk to that plant thing. If there's a woman there blocking your path instead of the son, you either didn't talk to the parents enough times, or you're not far enough into the game.

As for Yuna and Auron's weapons, which part are you having trouble with?

what do i have to do to get the weapons...if it helps i just blew the arms off sin and are now walking around omega ruins training but i think il fly towards the forest thanks for the help:)

thanks a bunch jewels i got the mirror now thanks for the help!

For details of how to get the actual weapons, refer to the first post. If you have, but are having trouble, which part exactly?

well just finding them and unlocking there 'power'...i hav yunas but all it ses is no ap atm...

To power the weapons up, you need their respective crests and sigils. You have to use the crests first, before you can use the sigils. Take them to the same plant that turned your Cloudy Mirror into the Celestial Mirror.

ok i got the mars crest im now catching monsters can u name the easiest places to hunt if any?

Easiest? I'm assuming just the earlier places since the enemies are weaker. You could try and make some species creations too, but that requires a more worldly search.

where about is tidus's crest in the zanarkand dome? ive looked every where and even to my surprise i found dark bahamut...i cant find it any where i got the sigil and weapon but i need to crest....oh by the way i got the sigil on my 4th go i found it easy

The same room you fought Yunalesca. The chest isn't actually there immediately after you defeat her. You have to go to the end up of platform, walk down the stairs and the screen will flash. You'll appear on the left of the platform. Now the chest should appear at the end to the left of the stairs. However, if you didn't pick it up just after you defeated her, then you'll have Dark Bahamut in your way. The only way to get it, is to defeat the brute.

You don't have to worry about Dark Bahamut though unless you have the International version.

anyone with a tip on how to finish the goddamn butterfly catching game??!! Btw if someone gives me a bazooka ill blow down Square and MAKE THEM MAKE IT EASIER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is impossible to finish. Do not try to finish it, you will drive yourself insane over something that isn't worth caring about anyway --- Kimahri's sigil.

*cough cough* i figured *cough* i got 6 butterflies and then time up.... RAWR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MUST KILL PERSON WHO MADE IT!!!

Its not impossible but yes it is very hard.

It's nearly impossible without a map (http://img79.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img79&image=ultimania_butterfly3.jpg) to guide you, since you have to work out for yourself all the correct paths to take in both areas, and that alone will take ages having to fight and restart and fight and restart. Even with a map it's hard since in some corners there are multiple red butterflies and due to the camera angle, it makes it hard to judge how far they are.

ill give someone $100 to finish the butterfly game 10 times :-P

Did you use a map?

Not the first time I played through the game, but I did every time afterwards.

I had a map, still didn't work...

It took me forever to do it. It got to the point where I felt like I had to do it and it was in the back of my mind all day. And one time I was just lucky.

I decided it wasn't worth it because Kimahri sucks. Maybe I'll try it again on my next playthrough, but I'm not going to go to any great lengths to get it.

If I was you I would just try it like once a day and eventually you will get it :)

went right at the Chocobo race thing today only to finish with a best time of 0:0.1 seconds!

Annoyed? - you bet i was

Yeah that happens to everyone. Just give it time. The best thing to do is to walk away. I know its hard but trust me.

The chocobo race was rough, but I didn't find it nearly as bad as the butterfly-hunting and was able to get it after a couple hours. And yeah, that same sort of thing happened to me too. blitzking's right --- happens to just about everyone, that does.

I got all the ultimate weapons except lulu's one. i always get distracted and get hit it really pisses me off. The Butterfly one took me ages but eventually i got it the annoying thing was i did the wrong one first so i didn't get the ultimate weapon part.

Well, Im on my second play through, and Im only in Luca right now, fixing to face off against the Goers for your first blitzball match. My first time through, the only celestial weapon I got was Rikku's to max. I had them all, but Rikku's was the only one I had maxed out. This time though, Im getting all of them.

I only finished it with Rikku and Auron`s.

Whoever concocted the stupid ways to get Celestial weapons was slightly sadistic.

Gonna try and get more on my next play through.
