Can someone give me any stratigies for the Shrine gaurdians please? Thanks.

*possible spoilers*

Ahh the Earth Shrine's guard. He's a bitch, cause you end up with having to use Quina in your party (he always gets killed for me). My advice is to use Auto Float on Zidane and Quina (it's an ability) Feather boots have the ability so if they don't have Auto Float, put Feather boots on and use Auto Float. It doesn't make anything on you weaker, but it does make all Earth attacks miss. Which helps believe me. I suggest getting Zidanes Trance almost active before you enter the Earth shrine (that will kick ass). That should do it. Use Quina only to heal Zidane and you should be fine (unless your Quina is really strong).

I always used Qunia every time I beat this game, she is what I like to call my *fourth person*. I hate how her attacks are random strong or weak, and her trance sucks crap, but she's got really strong blue magic. Make her cast mighty guard as soon as the battle begins, and also, keep zidane's trance as close to the end as possible so one hit will trigger it, nce he's in trance the battle is over.

if you have a dark matter and have learned odin from it you can throw it and it can cause maxed damage, only if you learned odin though and dont mind loseing a one of a kind item

Are you talking about the first time you fight him oh, wind spells should do damadge after all he is floating (never checked Does quina have a wind spell)

(if you havn't beat the first one don't read on) but, it might be useful in the future *Spiolers*



Ok, you never siad earth garidian you said Gardians (plural) so must be in momoria.

Earth gardian: he takes upon a harder stats and can be slightly difficult. Just try and keep you guys level out of anything multible by four (cuase he will do level four death right) and have ekio on your party with "phienox" wich is extremely useful when somebody is dead. part is also everything

water gardian: preform lighning spells of course he hates them. Everyone in your party should have High life becuase he will do wateraga and it will do major damadge to all. make sure you don't have "reflect spells" or he will be healed. (oh, if viv has learned auto reflect and reflect times 2) cast flare on yourself and it will be an auto 9999

fire gaurdian: have all your guys have the ability HEAT becuase he will do "musteed bomb" which will kill one guy. equip stuff with high Physical endurance cuase he mostly uses physical attacks

and tiamat (wind): he (I think) is the hardest. I don't have much to say. Try having two physical and two healing becuase half the time you are healing and half the time attacking. use attacks everyonce in a while and wear him down to nothing. he mostly uses magic so prepare.

Is that what you wanted? ? ? ?

Um, like it was said, use Auto-Float and level Quina up to about 32...Or higher. It's also nice to use Auto-Potion. Make sure Quina knows that water attack...I forgot the the name...>_< It's like Aqua Gun or something. If it hits it does about 9000 damage! Make sure Zidane is close to a Trance if Quina dies or something. Grand Lethal kicks ass!!!
Hope this helps!

Use the other strategies above... Have Quina be your Healer. Have him use White Wind (which is sucky but better than nothing) or curative items like Potions. Have him keep cure Zidane before himself cause Zidane's the guy who's really going to win this thing... You might also want to try and steal an Avenger (or another weapon name) for Amarant. It's a great weapon and you're not going to be able to buy it for awhile and it's pretty costy...

If you want to level Quina up, go to the coastline of the northwestern continent (forgot the exact name, I think it's "Lost") and eat a Whale Zombie to learn L5 Death. Then go to the Grand Dragon Ledge and use L5 Death to kill the Grand Dragons and they'll give you tons of EXP.

I told you not to read on if you hadn't beat the first one. If and when you have trouble later then just come and read. Okay
