Yeah. Build up your Aeons' overdrive meters before a boss, then just summon them one by one and murder all of the bosses. You might be able to one-shot the final form of the final boss with the Magus Sisters.
Teaching Yuna Black Magic is good, but neglecting Lulu is not. There's no reason to limit yourself to one mage, especially since Black Magic is your best source of damage for a good chunk of the game.
Lulu and Yuna have the same base Magic stat. If you're playing with the Expert Grid then Lulu has really easy access to the huge Magic stat boosts in Yuna's grid. (The section around Protect and Shell is a standout) She also has very easy access to Magic Booster.

This is my first time using the Expert Sphere Grid, and I really like it for this reason. I sent my Yuna down Lulu's path a little to get those spells, and she's doing more damage than my Lulu currently, lol. Lulu can heal when need be now as well.

Luzzu or Gatta... Luzzu or Gatta... Hmm... I feel like the game wants
Luzzu to be the one to die based on the cutscene prior to going up to the command center, but I much prefer Luzzu as a character, lol.
...and I don't have a PS3
Great, thanks! For some reason I remembered having options with how I developed the characters when I played back on PS2.

How much money should I donate to the merchant guy who keeps hitting me up for money?
Are you in a Monster Arena battle? Because characters can't learn overdrive modes there IIRC.

Either 101 gil or 1001 gil depending on what you can spare at the moment
The amount of inflation he has on his products depends on how much you give him. The only amount that's worth it is 1001 gil to reduce his jacked up prices a little bit. Giving him enough gil to reach the next "discount" isn't worth it unless you buy more stuff from him than you are likely to want to.

Eeep! I gave him 4000

Haha oops. Oh well, I seem to remember gil being pretty useless for most of the game, and then when you actually need it you have a ton, so I wouldn't worry about it.
It's worth the investment.
After 4 hours I finally managed to get the sun sigil. Afterwards I ran like a little girl to the nearest save sphere fleeing all battles, once I saved I quit the game and uploaded my save to the PS plus cloud thing just to be sure because I never want to do that again in my entire life.
Yeah, I was. Didn't know you couldn't learn overdrive modes there. Weird.
Oh well, got my Loner for Tidus. It's fun seeing Slice & Dice only do 30k damage each hit at first to Earth Eater, then seeing more and more 60k hits as his luck slowly increases.

Yeah it's sooooo bad. I dicked around in the Kilika temple for so long because I accidentally shoved the pedestal into a corner and I didn't know how to reset it. I actually really enjoy the cloisters but the pedestals are god-awful.
I recommend Expert. I also hadn't played in over a decade, and while I'm still primarily taking characters through their own paths, it is nice to be able to grab some things here and there that they wouldn't have been able to at that point in Standard (IE: Tier 1 black magic on Yuna, white magic on Lulu). Especially since Yuna's magic stat is so good, that her Tier 1 spells do the same damage as Lulu's Tier 2 when they get that far.

I just got to Remiem Temple. Anything I should be doing now to avoid getting blocked by
? I got all Destruction and Jecht Spheres so far, plus Energy Blast.
Dark Aeons at some part?
You need to get Anima, Yojimbo, the Flower Sceptre and Blossom Crown before you can get the Magus Sisters. The Flower Sceptre is gained by defeating Belgemine's Bahamut at Remiem Temple. And for the Blossom Crown, you have to capture one of every fiend in Mount Gagazet. Remiem Temple has nothing to do with Dark Aeons, so you can backtrack safely.
Just woke up.
Yeah. If you get all the primers there's no reason it should take more!
Will do, but might take awhile for me to be able to say, I'm sure more people are farther along. And I think there's at least one trophy that makes it so it requires two playthroughs anyway.
Hard to say, I idled a lot so the in game timer is inflated. Let's just say I don't have a lot of other hobbies and didn't do much else than play this. A bit sad, but whatever.

Congrats!
Tell me if an old vanilla 100% guide works for the International version.

Holey shit, this is incredible.
Too bad I can't seem to get Triple AP weapons from that mofo, he keeps giving me MP protections. Is it random or should I do something specific? (like, trying not to overkill him or something)
Anyway, thank you!

It's just random. You can sell the drops for good money though so fighting him pays for itself
Yojimbo is mine, now I'm poor again. Remiem chocobo race is done, that took longer than I expected and I'm trying to get attack reels now. To think about it, I thought Jecht shot is sure thing... it is not, I'm one match away from my prize, and I can't win. It's somewhat ridiculous. Luca's players can score from any place, if they shoot from my side of field, they still score, if I shoot right infront of their gate, a goalie catches the ball. I tried 3 times, when they get the ball, it's end for me. sigh
Chocobo catcher is even worse, my first time I had on my side or obtainable 5 balloons... 5, others were out of range or birdies were in a way. I won, but with 36 seconds time... It wasn't my day, for sure.
And I vividly remember why I said myself never again decade ago, and here I'm doing it again...

Finally got better than 0.00 in the stupid chocobo race. Fully powered celestial weapon for Tidus is done.
Now on to dodging lighting bolts. Yay...

The game has a lot of missable stuff. If you don't care and want to get the most out of it, just simply avoid the "hot spot" areas until you've explored where you want to. For instance, in chapter 1 the first hot spots are in Besaid and Zanarkand, but there's some stuff to see (or at least items to grab) in all of the other places too.
Alright, how important is the missable stuff, are we talking about dress spheres or just items/weapons? The one thing that would bother me is dress spheres so if I have to use a guide for that I will.
It's OK to play without the guide, I did that first time, missed some stuff, but I did fairly good. The game is supposed to be played multiple times, actually.

Lulu for black mage and Yuna for healing / summons is crucial.
My final party was Lulu / Yuna / Auron

Made it to the calm lands. Now to spend the next 10 hour ignoring the story. Curse you remiem temple 5 chest race. Just a second too slow.
Also found out the hard way that the dark aeon have spawned now.

When do Dark Aeons start to spawn? I was thinking of backtracking to Besaid to grab some Jecth Spheres for Auron.
You have to go back to Besaid right after you fight

There is something really weird about that race, I did it today too.
I can't believe I took exactly the same time every time, but I was getting there together with other chocobo all the time, exactly in same position, he on the left, meaning he wins, I'm on the right, time after time after time. It's seriously odd, it just not possible!
I think it's after the events in Bevelle. So if you go back to Besaid before you go to Macalania Temple you'll be fine.

I don't think so unless you're some kind of robot. Max I can ever get is 9.
