Xenosaga 2 question

I have a problem, Im at the last dungeon and all and I cant beat this game. See I think my problem was I never did any of the side quest I spent like 5 min total in the towns. I just kept advancing the story so I have like cure 1 still and stuff. I dont know how many of u played this but was that stuff important for me to get to beat it or can i stil beat this game.

you dont have to do the sidequests but it makes it alot easier to beat if you do cuz of some of the skills you can get from them.

its possible to beat the game without doing them,but its really hard,i suggest just going thru the game again so yuo can build up your chars some more.

(btw,when you do beat the last boss save your game and load it back up to do another quest thats only open till you beat the last boss) and talk to captain matthews to go back to the last dungeon to beat the last boss again and again and again so you can get a lot of exp for the quest to come

the guy watching you is right. I just beat it and the ending is good. REALLY you need to level up your characters BIG TIME if you even want to stand a chance against the extra boss.

Yeah the GS campaigns you don’t have to do them but it be better if you did. Plus you get some really cool double attacks from them!

Just find your way back to the Elsa so you can use the Encephalon, that way you can go back to every dungeon in the game and level. It is a very helpful way to gain experience. Hopefully you can make it back to the Elsa, I wouldn’t know considering im only about 85% of the way through the game.

Dude, be specific, where are you in the storyline?
