What team makes Blitzball really easy? I've only won 2 games so far with the starter team and a replacement goalie, lol.
I really want Wakka's stuff this time. Never got those ever.

You'll need to do at least two more leagues after the tournament unless you reset the data to reset the league prize.
Oh god. I might just do that then. One more league is already way more games than I want to play, so the thought of doing two is unbearable.
There's a piece that goes a little into the translation on FFX, worth a read.

I'm not at that point yet in the Remaster but if I remember right isn't Nemesis' Ultra Spark the only attack that you cannot reduce down to 9999 damage (it's a group attack) no matter what the setup?
Haha yeah, that's the quickest way but you will lose all your signed players and levels etc. I think I ended up playing around 50 games by the time I got the Sigil since I didn't reset at all.
Good call. Forgot about that attack. In that case Auto Life, BHPL or using an Aeon as a meat shield are required for Nemesis.
Auron didn't come back in the audio drama, there was a girl that claimed to be his child. Would be interesting to see who was behind all that.

crazy as it sounds even the new main menu look and sound design just gives a 'feel' of FF.
something XIII completely lacked despite all the tacked on fan service.
Then why does Yuna talk about Auron as if he were still alive? I got the impression this was an alternate universe or something.

Do you have the airship?
A really good starter squad which uses units which aren't already on teams is something like:
Forward: Tidus
Forward: Vilucha (found in Besaid Hut) or Wedge
MF: Brother(Airship)
Defense: Ropp (Rin's Travel Agency on Mi'hen high road)
Defense: Zev Ronso (Standing on one of the docks in Luca)
Goalie: Keepa is fine, although Jumal, Kyou, or Miyu would be slightly better.
As long as you aren't trying to go long haul this team will demolish the opposition and is easy to get.

Not yet, I'll get those when I do. Thanks for the tips!

Fucking dark Aeons!!!!!!
I feel like I can't go anywhere without someone just jumping out at me and sending a instant kill my way. I'm having a hell of a time just getting parts for the ultimate weapon and I probably need those to kill these things.

This is the team I'll be rolling with (Wedge + Jumal), the only change I'd make would be Zalitz instead of Zev, mainly for speed.

Isn't a Dark Aeon blocking Besaid Village? Don't know if I want to fight that. Ugh. I guess I can pray on Yojimbo to one hit it I guess.

YES it is! I was stupid enough to leave that one destruction sphere in besaid and I can't get to it any longer.
I can't even get a turn. I tried to get the crest for Tidus and another one came out because its the international version

I ended up resetting, up to Round 3 of 10 to win the Sigil. It's not so bad, just doing the usual Jecht Shot and then hide behind goalie technique. So close. So close now. This minigame sucks. I miss Tetra Master.

Wow, man every time I read an old school translation story I have more and more respect for all of them and I'm amazed at the lengths people had to go to just to get us these games. Mad props to all of them. Anytime someone harshes on a translation of a game I just try to imagine how hard that team had to work to get something passable by release date. Just to have some teenager harsh on it in a brilliant display of sheer ignorance.

Okay, alright, I think I'm almost at the end of the game. Pretty soon I'll be able to do a ton of backtracking to finish up mini-games and side tasks! Then it's onto X-2!
the only thing i've found that i should have done during the non-grind playthrough is get those 3 albhed primers in home. now i have to go back and replay from the last save i had before that which was quite a ways away. not looking forward to getting those. outside that i think just about everything else is available after you get the airship.

Why 2 playthroughs? Did you miss something or do trophies require a second like how LRFFXIII did?
Pretty good idea with leaving Yuna out. Guess I'll run Tidus, RIkku, Wakka. I just really don't like Wakka, ya?
To unlock Don Tonberry you have to capture at least one of every monster in the Cavern of Stolen Fayth. Once you've captured one of them all you can fight Don Toberry as many times as you want.

No you don't? New guide specifically says if you give sphere to Youth League you can acquire 100% in a single playthrough (Pge 234). This means it would still take 2 playthroughs for Platinum, just not for the reason you said, it's due to Via Infinito not being accessible this way.
Any ways, this sucks. I hate games where they force multi-playthroughs.
Guess I'll start with my completion sweep of it, then do a speed run for the Via Infinito Trophies

Zalitz also has a higher ATK and Block, but his End is low, which is a feature that personally drives me nuts when it comes to defenders.
But good point, Zalitz is another good alternative.

The only back story for that is they say the best Blitzball players can hold their breath indefinitely. With all the magic and Aeons going on you'd think breathing underwater would be an achievable feat.

I thought all "humans" in Spira could do that indefinitely?

No, in Eternal Calm Yuna's time is around 3 minutes. It seems only Blitzball players can hold their breath for long time. As early people mentioned, you think they could come up with an oxygen mask for players. This is an advanced civilization!
Infinite_Daremo
Member
No idea. I just remember an NPC mentioning BB players doing so. Either way they only have to hold their breath for 5 minutes then its halftime.
Pyreflies. Pyreflies are the answer to any unanswered questions in X and X-2.
No. There's a trick to it involving Pyreflies that blitzball players learn.

Well you need 720,000 per auto-haste per character. You'll see that 6.2M dwindle really quick! I spent like 5 hours in Omega Ruins yesterday capping them all. I ran from all battles that I didn't need to capture anything in.
There's nothing really that you can do to make it easier or harder, for most all of them.

I wouldn't worry about that stuff until later on.
