Vile Island

Yup, your go!

Name 3 early weapons that you should buy plenty before Terra, because they are used for synthesis of useful equipment on CD4, but are no longer available at shops at that time.

Mage Masher is one of them I think, theres another one that Hades uses to synth something but I can't remember...

i think Gladius is another.

Nope, both of these can be bough on CD4...

Maybe 3 is too much. 2 weapons will be enough.

I know one of them is Freya's Javelin to synth Save the Queen.

Correct, just one more to go!

The two other are weapons for Steiner and Garnet.

Stardust Rod? It just sprung out of nowhere, I doubt it's right. :D

Steiner's Mythril Sword? maybe? I don't know, it's just a shot in the dark and I have no idea what it would synth into.

Mythril Sword indeed:) Good shot. Your turn feralanima.

btw The 3rd weapon was Air Racket.

Wow, you're joking right?! The only reason I know of the javelin is because I sold it before disc 4 and couldn't find one anywhere after I got to the master synth. Needless to say I was rather frustrated!

In the FMV of the assault of the silver dragons name four people that come to your aid (they can all be on the same airship as long as it's not the Invincible).

Well, there was Regent Cid with Baku and the Tantalus troupe on the Hilda Garde III, plus Beatrix with the Knights of Pluto on the Red Rose. Apart from that, I don't think there was anyone else shown there if I remember rightly.

there was also that female lookalike of Zidane who was on the Red Rose. forgot her name, though. She was in Terra and showed Zidane around Bran-Bal.

Mikoto is the last one :)

The only people they show on the Red Rose are Beatrix and two Pluto Knights. Cid and the Tantalus group are on the Hilda Garde III. I don't recall seeing Mikoto at all in there, if she is, she would be on the Hilda Garde III.

Either way, Enkidoh got it, your go!

i remember the scene clearly. when Regent Cid contacts the Red Rose, Mikoto is the one speakin from the mic. there's no denyin it.

Oh yes, that's right. I remember now - she's on board the Red Rose and speaks to the Hilda Garde III via some sort of radio device. But that's after the airship battle - she doesn't appear during any of the battle's scenes.

Anyway... :D

How much EXP do you get for killing the crystal versions of the Four Fiends (Maliris, Kraken, Lich and Tiamat) randomly encountered in Crystal World?

Pretty sure its zero.

Rep for some trivia peeps.

Yep, that's right. It was a trick question. :p They give no exp, but tons of AP, meaning they're handy if you still need to finish off learning certain abilities.

Anyway, your go IU. :)

I apologize, I should have been more clear about that question, I had meant during the airship battle as the Invincible was about to enter Memoria. Either way Enkidoh did get exactly who I was looking for. Sorry for any confusion.

Easy one. What music plays when fighting Hades?

hmmm its that hunting one... caaaan't remember what its called....... Festival of the Hunt! Boo-yah!! Hades fight is epic fight btw

The track in question is actually called Hunter's Chance on the OST.

But yeah, it's the track that plays during the Festival of the Hunt. ;)

7al or Enk can go.

what are the name/s of Queen Brahne's guard dogs that try and kill you?

Bandersnatches :p

Interesting little reference to Lewis Carrol there. ;)

that was it, enkidoh. u might as well go.

Are we still going on with this?

It's supposed to be Enki's go but he hasn't took it... anyone else have a question?

I'll take it. One of Ozma's Black Magic spells is Meteor. name the other.

Doomsday

Oops! Sorry, I completely forgot it was my turn (mostly because I was still waiting for 7alentine to reply, which she hasn't). :p

Anyway, answering Aces' question, a Black Magic spell I know Ozma uses is Doomsday. Hence why he's so hard to fight if you haven't finished the Friendly Monsters quest, as each time he uses it it effectively heals him completely, due to his default Shadow absorption. ;)

EDIT: BAH! IU Ninjaed me! You sneak! :p Ah well, you beat me fair and square. :D

Doomsday is correct. either IU or enkidoh go.

An easy one. How many Dead Pepper treasure locations are there?

4?

Nope.

8

No again.

13 isn't it? I haven't played this game in a long while

Nope.

9?

Wrong again.

I was just playing this part over Thanksgiving break...it was 5 water locations and 3 cracks, so there's 8. There was also two other cracks that weren't treasures but lead to Mognet Central and Chocobo's Paradise. Also, using the dead pepper in the air to get to Chocobo's Air Garden.

8 was already guessed, I thought 8 but apparently it's not, that's why I said 9 as I might have missed one in my head. I really have no idea now. Shall we guess at 10? :p

Oops, sorry I forgot to add the three after those first eight, final number including Chocobo's Air Garden, Mognet Central, and Chocobo's Paradise would be 11. Even though they aren't treasure locations, but I can't think of what's missing treasure wise, so I just added the other non-treasure locations.

i read an faq and the answer is 8. 4 cracks with treasure and 4 water areas with foam.

Feral is right. Your go.

In the Hippaul racing sidequest you receive items (mostly cards) when Hippaul reaches certain levels. What is Hippaul's level when you receive the first item?

50?

Do items include the cards themselves? If so, it's Level 10 isn't it? If not, I'm not sure, Aces might be right.

if cards count as items, then it is 10.

I need to learn to be more clear in my questions, sorry for the confusion. Cards included it is level 10, Johnny your go.

What's the name of the Moogle that saves your game on the World Map, and what are the four things he says if you turn him away? Five point question. :)

i forget his name, but i still remember the 4 quotes:

1. Don't call me if you don't need me, kupo!
2. You're starting to tick me off, kupo!
3. I'm sharpening my knife, kupo.
4. STOP IT ! STOP IT ! STOP IT ! KU-PHEW !

His name is Moguo but that's pretty much right. Your go Aces :)

ill pass it to enkidoh. if he doesnt come up with one within the next 24 hours of this post, its a free question.

Name the two monsters in the game whose names are derived from nonsense poems in the Alice stories by Charles Ludridge Dogdson - otherwise known as Lewis Carrol; and where they can be found in game.

Bonus points if you can name the titles of the poems they're taken from, and which Alice stories they appear in. ;)

Jabberwock and Bandersnatch from Jabberwocky in Through the Looking Glass

Enkidoh???

Oops, sorry I completely forgot I'd asked that question. :p

But yeah, IU got it right, so next question is his. :)

Carbuncle has 3 different summon abilities when Eiko equips certain accessories.
What are they and what do you have to equip?

It's actually Eiko who learns Carbuncle. as for the answer, i have no idea.

It's actually Eiko who learns Carbuncle. as for the answer, i have no idea.
Eiko sure, my bad.

Besides the default Ruby Light, she also uses Emerald Light with an Emerald equipped and Pearl Light with a pearl equipped. As for what those extra spells do, I can't remember exactly (without looking at my strategy guide) - Wall and Vanish respectively?

I should have said in addition to the default. Still one more.

Equipping Moonstone causes protect/shell
Emerald does haste.
Diamond is the third one and it does Vanish.

Enk or Feral can go.

I'll give the next question to Feral, as I've just discovered searching back that Johnnymercyside already asked that same question about ten pages or so back (which I correctly answered at that time).

So I'm hanging my head in shame at getting a question that I'd previously already answered right wrong the second time around. :p

dont feel too bad. it's better to miss it a second time rather than get a million dollar question wrong on Who Want's to Be A Millionaire. now thats shameful.

Thanks Enk.

While controlling Cid in the Desert Palace, how many minutes do you have to get past the monster in the cage and figure out the weights puzzle to free the party?

i believe it was 6 minutes.

Correct, your go Aces!

Two characters have to be in your party to view the scene with Quan in his dwelling. Name both characters.

Quina and Vivi

Those are the two. ur go, feral.

Vivi and Quina?

question was already answered, johnny.

Easy question, when Zidane goes into trance, the command "Skill" changes. What is the name of his new command?

Dyne

Correct, your go IU.

Straightforward one, What does the kanji for Dyne translate to?

question was already answered, johnny.

Ah, sorry, didn't notice the new page!

...and I don't know, sorry IU. :(

dynamite? otherwise, i got nuthin.

Not dynamite. Try again.

Wouldn't it be Dyne? :>
Nope. Try again.

this apparently isn't straightforward enough as u say, IU.

Would it be Skill?

Nope. Try again

my only other guess would be SFX, but i dont think thats it either.

Fire is the only other thing I can think of.

No and no. try again.

You guys suck.

Dyne (裏技, Urawaza?, lit. "Underhanded tricks")

Free question.

What are the differences between the events outside the Cargo Ship, when you have the option to poke the barrel or examine it longer?

Zidane gets angry at Steiner, saying that the blade almost went through Garnet? and Steiner getting angsty?:D

Haha, in a nutshell you're right.

If you poke the barrel Zidane says that the blade almost went through Garnet, but if you examine it longer it falls on Steiner.

Your go Szczepan :)

Ok, thanks Johnny:)

Next question is perhaps a little tricky. How many regents did Lindblum had in it's history?

As far as I'm aware, the only Regents to rule Lindblum have all had the name Cid, which including the current one there have been nine so far (there's a statue of the very first one on horseback at the airship dock in Lindblum Castle - which is odd, as you'd think chances are that he would have ridden a chocobo more than a horse ;)).

But other than that, I have no idea.

That is why I wrote it might be a little tricky;) There has indeed been 9 Cids (Cid we know from game being 9th), but game gives hint that not all regents were called Cid:) (this is not said straight though)

Hint - this information is not located in Lindblum

13?

I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark here and say 10, because that's the sort of thing Square would have done.

But I have no idea if that's true or not.

just to speed this up a little, im gonna guess 11.

12th:) Here's why Let's Play Final Fantasy IX #032 - Dilly Dali Shilly Shally - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=WuEN5RXTQFs#t=164s). It says that Cid VIII was the eleventh regent so that makes Cid IX 12th :) Since Cid VIII is a father of the current regent of Lindblum.

Question goes to feralanima for being 1st to be very close to the right answer.

There are three Pumice Pieces in the game, you get one from Ark. Where can you get the other two Pumice Pieces?

One from Hades in Memoria. i think the other is the auction in Treno.

You can synthesize two Pumice Pieces to make a whole Pumice with Hades, and you need a Pumice and a Hammer in order to synthesize a Pumice Piece. But in order to even make the Pumice in the first place you have to find a second Pumice Piece...and neither of them are in Treno :)

One is a chocograph treasure. The other you can steal from Ozma.

I am not sure if I remember correctly but I think there was also another given randomly with Pumice, after the fight with Ozma.

IU got it, your go!

Alright, what ability does the pumice piece teach and what does it do?

i know it absorbs Holy & Shadow elemental attacks. forgot what it teaches, though.

It teaches Garnet and Eiko the 'Boost' ability, which ensures their Eidolons will feature the full summon animation every time they're summoned as long as the ability is equipped, rather than the shortened animation (and hence, cause greater damage). It's loosely the same as the ability's namesake in FFVIII - it boosts a summon's power.

Enk goes.

What is the reason stated in the game why Alexandria's military is almost exclusively female (apart from the Knights of Pluto)?

I remember there was a statue of the first female general of Alexandria in town by the gate that leads to the world map. maybe thats why.

Not quite - I'll give a hint as it's rather obscure: the reason is mentioned by NPCs in Alexandria's town, and the reason is indicative of Alexandrian society in general, not just the military.

But it also explains why Alexandria has an almost entirely female army. Find it and you'll have the answer. ;)

hmm...i have searched in every area of Alexandria on my saved file on Disk 4, and even started a new game and did the same, but have found absolutely nothing. u sure it's in Alexandria?

I don't remember who said it exactly, but something about Alexandrian men being irresponsible and cannot be depended upon? By comparing Steiner's Pluto Knights to Beatrix brigade? Not sure if the latter part was said by the same person though.

Szczepan got it basically right - it's stated that Alexandrian men are 'unreliable', but your meaning was correct. As for who said it, I'm pretty sure it was an old woman in one of the houses in Alexandria who mentions it (before the Invincible levels the place). But yeah, it also explains why Steiner and his Knights, while well-intentioned, aren't exactly the brightest bulbs on the chandelier. ;)

Anyway, your go Szczepan. :D

Ok thanks Enkidoh :)

Red Mages. They don't have any important role in FFIX but still you meet them a couple times in different places. I'm aware of 3 Red Mages you can meet as NPC (and one seen only in ATE). Give at least 2 examples where and when (for the one from ATE) you can see them:)

I know for a fact one is in Lindblum, he talks to Steiner about his filthy armour... I can't remember the other two. I think one is in Treno although that's a guess. Good question :)

There's one in Lindblum in the Business District and there's one in Treno where you can sell them some stuff from the Auction House.



Johnny ninjaed me :(

Correct! The ones I was asking:
RM seen in ATE in Lindblum on CD1 (actually it's a Female RM who makes fun of rust on Steiner's armor thinking he is hitting on her), RM in Treno - one of the people who buys the auction artefacts from us and two red mages in Alexandria Pub before CD3 (there's two of them but i counted them as one since they are together).

Johhny was a bit faster so gets the next question:)

there was another for the Red Mage question. a male can be found at the pub in Alexandria at the beginning of the game while you control Vivi talkin about how he bought a ticket and should be happy...but it was a fake and a female is at the Inn, complainin that there isnt a reservation at the inn.

Well, I think they are the same Red Mages, that are later hanging around together in Alexandrian Pub. Female RM just changes location from Inn to pub, but yeah I would count this answer too:)

Probably a crap question but,

What locations are the most north, south, east and west locations on the map?

North - Mognet Central
South - Chocobo's Lagoon
East - Quan's Dwelling
West - Ipsen's Castle

South and East are correct, North and West are not. Because you got two of four, I might as well say that, the other two are the same location, and it's not on a continent.

Chocobo's Air Garden? either that or Chocobo's Paradise.

It's Chocobo's Paradise. Full marks, your go Aces. :)

Name the abilities Choco gets in the order that he gets them.

Field
Reef
Mountain
Ocean
Sky
Dead Pepper

not exactly. i mean his ABILITIES, what he learns. geez.

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking then. I know he initially can run around in the field, then he learns to go into shallow water, then he can cross mountains, then he learns to swim in deep water, and then he learns to fly.

thats what im lookin for. ur turn, feral.

What is the moogle's name that takes care of Choco?

i know it, but ill let someone else answer first.

Mene

Mene is correct, your go IU.

Where can you get the Blue Narciss card?

i think im wrong, but im gonna say the mini game with Vivi and that hippo on disc 3.

Nope, but good try.

From one of chocographs?

Thats one of the places. The other is from Gilgamesh in Daguerro.

Szcz goes.

Ok. How many times overall does game cheat, by using attacks that automaticly end battles?

btw not only number, but please write who and how. In case of few people giving partial answers, question will go to the one who posted the "less obvious" one.

i think it's 5. 3 from each of the Beatrix battles, the other 2 from Trance Kuja.

You missed the "less obvious" one;)

less obvious? hmm...i got it. its the battle with Steiner and that bomb that grows on every turn, endin the battle.

What I meant was this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=y1yB2f7yu0o#t=142s) , but bomb fight counts too I guess... So when counting bomb this happens 7 times...

Ok Aces, your turn.

sorry for the delay, but here's the next question:

Before disc 4 AND Terra, other than the Grand Dragon, what is the next best level grinding/AP spot and name the enemy or enemies u can get that much from.

I don't know if it's the best, but the Epitaphs in Oeilvert give a lot of EXP if you kill all the mirages of your characters and then him at the end.

Not to mention Epitaphs can also be killed instantly even before they create the doppelgangers by simply using the Gold Needle/Stona trick - use a spell or item that cures Petrification and it destroys the enemy instantly, with the message 'Too soft to live'. I can't remember if you get any items, EXP or AP after the battle by this method though.

I can't remember if you get any items, EXP or AP after the battle by this method though.

I don't think you get the huge sum of EXP if you kill the Epitaph before it creates the mirages.

EDIT: Just did some research on the Epitaph.

You get 0 EXP if you defeat it before it creates the mirages. Then it creates upto three mirages, which all give you 9913 EXP each. So if you let it create three mirages, you get a total EXP of 29729. As I said I don't know if it's the most before Disc 4, but it's up there.

I don't know if it's the best, but the Epitaphs in Oeilvert give a lot of EXP if you kill all the mirages of your characters and then him at the end.

that is it. defeatin the 3 mirages and the Epitaph nets u over 7k of experience points. Johnny's go.

What's the name of the moogle who reports how well you did in the Festival of the Hunt via Mognet?

I want to say it's Monty, but I'm not sure.

i believe it's Moodon.

Aces got it, Moodon sends a letter to Mogmi at Gizamaluke's Grotto. :)

Name the Eidolon that Brahne destroys Clerya with.

Odin

yeppers. ur go IU.

Why doesn't Quina follow the party to the Red Rose?

S/he doesnt like heights.

correct.

free question.

How old is Vivi? There's two ages given to him.

9

9 is the official age given in the manual and official game propaganda, but I'm sure I remember seeing it mentioned somewhere in game that he's actually much younger than that - like, 6 years old or something.

Which is his real age however is probably left to the player to decide, given the fact Vivi was the prototype Black Mage (and who's life span, despite being longer than a regular Black Mage's, was unknown).

How old is Vivi? There's two ages given to him.

9 and 6 months. If this is correct someone else can have the question since I won't be home to make it.

Kratos for the answer I was looking for, although it has been debated a lot. The most accepted answer is appearance of a 9 year old boy, but as a Black Mage he's 6 months old. Quan also says that Vivi is 6 months old when he's thinking of "eating" him.

Free question is Kratos isn't going to take it.

I'll take it.

Name the district in Lindblum that u can't enter after it gets attacked by Atomos in Disc 2.

Industrial District

yep. go ahead, feral.

The Long Reach ability can be learned by what four characters?

Freya, Amarant are two I'm sure.

Not too sure about the other two, a guess would be Zidane and Steiner.

Zidane and Steiner

You got it Johnny, your go!

What are the four ways to get a Moonstone?

2 of them are that if u get the 4 stones in the Conde Petie Mountain Path area and put them in that idol thing, a moonstone comes out. the other is from one of the friendly monster encounters, i think it's the Jabberwock?

I seem to recall if you manage to get a perfect (100%) audience satisfaction rating for the sword duel between Zidane and Blank during the play at the beginning of the game you get a bonus Moonstone too, but I can't remember exactly if that's true or not (it's been so long ago I played through that section) - the stupid Brady guide naturally doesn't say anything either other than pointing to the defunct POL guide.

So if this isn't true, ignore my answer. :p

So if this isn't true, ignore my answer. :p

just checked an faq and it is indeed a Moonstone.

Yup, all three answers are right. The fourth answer is probably the least known one purely because it's so discrete, is from Stiltzkin on Disc 4 in Alexandria (he also gives you a Ruby and an Elixir, all for 5555 gil).

I'd say it's Aces go as he got two :)

free question.

I may as well ask one then. :)

Where and when is the earliest time and place in the game where you can find/gain an Elixir, and what are the circumstances required for gaining it?

Disk 1 while controlling Steiner after Vivi and Puck. Talk to Brahne and she gives u one.

Right place, but the circumstances aren't correct (as far as I know, Brahne never gives you one - great if she does though ;)). But you have the location right, plus it does indeed involve Steiner while you're controlling him there.

Anyone else?

actually, she does if u get a good enough score in the duel with Blank and Zidane. i confirmed it last week.

Hmm, I never knew that myself - although it's not actually the answer I was looking for, but, in hindsight, is actually correct anyway as it turns out it precedes the one I was thinking of, so I may as well give the next question to you then Aces. Good job. :)

(If you're wondering the answer I was looking for was during the play in Alexandria Castle when Steiner is ordered to locate Princess Garnet and has to track down all the Knights of Pluto to pass the order onto them, he is given an Elixir by the final Knight, Breireicht, who is found climbing one of the towers of the castle, but only if Steiner has already spoken to all the other knights.)

Your go Aces. :)

While looking for the Desert Palace in disc 3, what happens if u pick the wrong sand dune on the world map?

Fight with Antlion?

yep. ur turn, szc.

Ok. Give at least 7 examples, where "triforce" sign can be found in this game. 7 because it's pretty common.

Hmm, I seem to remember it appearing as the symbol of Terra, and shows up in a lot of places there. I seem to also remember seeing it on the side of the Hilda Garde I airship as well (or at least, a variation of it).

But as for exact locations I'm not sure, sorry. :(

Is it on the Alexandria cargo barrells? Otherwise I haven't the foggiest.

i think 7 is too many...i dont think people cared enough to look at that.

Yeah, I guess I asked for too many :/ Ok, Enkidoh can have it for naming at least few.

btw examples where it can be found :

Door to Oeilvert, a case where Gulug Stone was kept, door to Mount Gulug, a place in Alexandria Castle where Garnet was drained of Eidolons, on Valia Pira, the levitating lift in Iifa Tree that only resonates to Zidane and floor of the mirror room in Ipsen's Castle.

Name three instances of a rose motif occurring in Alexandria (this can be a literal rose, an image of one, or even just a passing reference - as long as it refers to something about Alexandria and it's government).

Well you have the Red Rose ship obviously.

Beatrix's song is called Rose of May... that's played in Lindblum Disc 3 predominantly but I'm sure it might be played when Beatrix comes to her sense in the castle after your final battle against her on Disc 2...

Another guess would be that you might see roses in the FMV at the end of Disc 2 with Garnet in Alexandria, but that's a complete guess.

The name of the Red Rose airship is indeed one. That one is pretty obvious. :D

Rose of May isn't one I was thinking of however, but it still is correct so I'll you that as well (especially as the one I was thinking of does indeed involve Beatrix). ;)

The third one is pretty obscure though (but it's close to what you mentioned - beginning of disc 3 yes, but where about exactly is it shown, and in what context?).

So, anyone want to have a go at guessing the last two? (If there are no more takers, you can have the next question Johnny. :)).

wasn't there a bouquet of roses offered by the people of Alexandria at the beginning of Disc 3 that was put on Brahne's gravestone?

That's correct Aces. Doctor Tot mentions it during that scene.

That leaves the second one still unknown. Any takers?

Okay, I'll give a hint - this is to do with Beatrix but isn't really noticeable in game (it concerns her appearance). This is very obscure though.

If no one gets it in a day I'll end this question and award it to either Aces or Johnny.

Doesn't the back of her cape have a rose on it?

That's indeed the answer I was looking for Feral. :) Good job. (Like I said, it's not really noticeable in-game, but her concept art clearly shows it).

Anyway, Johnny, Aces or Feral: any of you can take the next question. :)

Johnny or feral can have it.

What three weapons can be made by synthesising a Mage Masher (with another item)?

Butterfly Sword with a Dagger, The Ogre with another Mage Masher (i.e. 2 Mage Mashers), and Exploda with a Mythril Dagger. I think that's all there is (I couold be wrong though. :P).

Okay, seeing as it's been a month since Johnny posted and he hasn't responded in that time, I'm going to just say free question to whoever wants to ask one. :)

Ill take it.

Which city did Beatrix grow up in?

I don't remember there ever bein any mention of Beatrix's hometown.

It is mentioned at one point.

Lindblum?

Nope.

Alexandria?
Seems too obvious... unless you wanted a trick question...

I don't recall it ever being mentioned. Thought that was part of her character, the mystery...

It is mentioned once briefly, she grew up here until she joined the Alexandrian army.

Treno?

Thats the one. Your go!

OSFM I'm curious since I just took a stab at it, where exactly is it mentioned where she grew up?

As for the actual trivia question: In the beginning of the game the Tantalus crew lock up Steiner in a room and the the Theatre ships crashes Steiner finds a Princess Garnet doll. Who does the doll belong to?

Cinna?

yep, it is Cinna. in one of the ATE's, it's kinda funny how he says he can't sleep at nite without it.

Butterfly Sword with a Dagger, The Ogre with another Mage Masher (i.e. 2 Mage Mashers), and Exploda with a Mythril Dagger. I think that's all there is (I couold be wrong though. :P).

So sorry, I moved house and didn't have time to come on here! You were right by the way, but we've moved on from this question. :)

It's impudent urinal's go isn't it?

Yep, it's IU's turn. :)

Welcome back too Johnny btw. :D

Yes IU got it, your go!

i guess IU doesn't have a question, so i'll go.

It's a bad idea to bring certain people to Oelivert. Tell me why.

I totally spaced...
Apology rep for y'all who waited.
Go with Aces question.

You can't use magic in Oelivert so you shouldn't bring party members that are strictly magic users.

i guess IU doesn't have a question, so i'll go.

It's a bad idea to bring certain people to Oelivert. Tell me why.

Because you can't use any magic.


*edit* AMG, I checked twice before posting an answer to see if the last page was really the last page.
So I finally send my answer ..and feral beats me to it >;

Don't feel discouraged - that happens to all of us at least once.

But yeah, Oelivert has a field that renders magic disabled in battle while inside. So don't take Garnet, Eiko or Vivi along (well you can, but they won't be too useful ;)).

You can't use magic in Oelivert so you shouldn't bring party members that are strictly magic users.

feral got it. feral's go.

Don't feel discouraged - that happens to all of us at least once.


I bet three times in a row is a new record though [;0

Lol, sorry Phoen-IX. What happens when you use a tent on a party member while in battle?

I'm pretty sure that question has already been asked before.

But anyway, it afflicts them with negative status effects (Poison and Blind at the very least if I remember rightly) while at the same time completely restoring their HP and MP. It has this same effect if used on an enemy too.

In fact, this is a useful trick to hinder the enemy, particularly bosses, by chucking a tent at them right at the start of the battle. Because the battle has only just begun, the HP restoration isn't a problem anyway. ;) Using it on a member of your party can also be considered a last resort method of healing if you don't have Garnet or Eiko in your party and you're out of Potions and Elixirs.

tents have far better use while equipping the status immunity on them.

Was it asked already? Oh well, Enkidoh you got it anyway, you're up.

Which boss enemy with a mistranslated name previously also appeared as a kind-of optional battle in FFVI (and also later appeared in FFXII as well)?

Deathguise/Deathgaze/Doomgaze

That's correct! I was hoping someone would fall for the ruse and mention Armodullahan thinking it's meant to be Dullahan from FFVI. ;)

Your go. :)

Ok, thanks Enkidoh:)

If you take Eiko and Vivi to Oeilvert with Zidane (not the best idea;p), who will be a leader of Desert Palace party?

Best guess i can think of is Steiner. But what if he goes as well...?

Correct answer, aces :) It's Steiner and when he is not present in Desert Palace too, Freya takes the lead. Didn't make question of that because thought it was a bit too hard and people would just guess...

Your turn.

If impudent urinal doesn't take the next question before 12:00 pm on tuesday, i'll take it. no free questions till then.

Name 4 of the 6 random attacks that Freya's Six Dragons ability inflicts.

Restores all HP/MP
Reduces HP/MP to 1
Restores all HP
Restores all MP

I had to look it up since it had been so long. :laugh:

Your go szcz

Pretty easy. Which card is missable and how can you obtain it?

the Namingway Card and it's obtainable in Treno during the card tourney in disc 3. see the ATE with Vivi and you're given the option to either have him leave Treno or stay. Staying triggers another ATE with Mario and the card and he may use it during the second match.

Correct, your turn aces :)

btw It can also be found in Kuja's room in Desert Palace.

if it can be found in Kuja's Palace, i've never seen it.

anyway, while we're on the topic of cards, name the other hardest card to get and how to obtain it.

Chocobo card won from Fat Chocobo? As for the Namingwayrd, I usually obtained that one from Kuja's Desert Palace.

close, but no. that card is fairly easy to get. any other guesses?
