Green Chocobo.
I've been using Chichu as my go-to guy so far. Along with a green Chocobo for healing and a Goblin Chieftain as my tank. Been pretty much coasting along with little trouble.
Me as well, but replace Goblin Chieftain with Pulsework Gladiator.

Cool thanks. From a bit of reading it sounds like you need to be fairly well leveled up to take it on?
Just keep playing,go to Sunleth it will unlock something that will help you with the Bresha Ruins thing...and try and have Serah know Saboteur before Sunleth
I think that's the only one in that part of the map until you get the uhh, anti-grav? jump so you can cross over to the west side.
If you change the weather to windy, you can find a whirlwind near the locked gate that well get you to the other side.
Uhm I suppose this depends on where you are in the game? You need to look out for his massive self heal. So you will need to break him and then lift him into the air so you can easily kill him.

I've yet to see a green there, but they can be easily caught elsewhere. Red is at the Ridge area when windy, blue is in the marshes when rainy.

Shit is so rigged. Get 5000-7500 coins, save, and then tape down your R1? button and hope you get some nice stuff. Reload if it turns out shit.
Just wander around near the locked time gate and you should find one. It's called something ridge, I forget the proper name.
I don't even know what I'm waiting for

I think I unlocked
too early cause I only had one wild artifact and I can't seem to do anything in that place because I need to go farther back in time? Idk I can't fight the monster there
Vile Peaks
Sure! Honestly, I noticed no difference between really trying to get something by manually doing it or just taping L1 down. If you watch the slot machine, you will see that at some point it really wants you to get 777 ... its really funny.

here is a strategy to build an ultimate racing chocobo.
there you go~My chocobo never lost a single race..
1. Capture a white chocobo (Oerba, 300AF)
2. Use Potent item to level him to Lv.99
3. Capture a SYN chichu (tons of them in Archylte Steppe)
4. Level him to Lv. 35 (any type item)
5. Infuse the white chocobo with SYN chichu
6. Capture a regular cactuar (in front of the hunter's settlement's gate, Archylte Steppe)
7. Infuse the white chocobo with cactuar
2. Use Potent item to level him to Lv.99
3. Capture a SYN chichu (tons of them in Archylte Steppe)
4. Level him to Lv. 35 (any type item)
5. Infuse the white chocobo with SYN chichu
6. Capture a regular cactuar (in front of the hunter's settlement's gate, Archylte Steppe)
7. Infuse the white chocobo with cactuar

it worked for me
Do you get the fragment for total coins won in a single slot sitting or something?
jimmypython

I think the fragment is for lucky coin or something..I bought 10,000 coins for the slot machine and then taped L1 button (-_-||)...after 650 or so turns a dialogue happened and I got the fragment...
So its not for amount won but a random slot prize? Hm. I'm at turn 1900 and have gotten 4 777s, but immediately after I get them, I get that Bomb enemy looking slot item and victory mode ends.
The card game DLC better be actually fun, Square ｡･ﾟ･(ﾉД`)･ﾟ･｡

Except Mog. Ugggh. Makes my ears bleed when it talks.
Luckily, outside of item searching (which I never listen to it then anyway), Mog doesn't talk an awful lot in cutscenes.
Got my Crystal Edition today. It's a pretty big box, it's actually bigger than the (CE) guide. I'm so glad they actually put in the full OST in a very nice case and it's not stuffed in paper sleeves or something.
Played the game for several hours, I'm now in the area of the demo (towards the end of the demo). I really, really didn't like the first hour or so, easily the worst beginning in series history, but it's gotten a lot better now and I'm very much enjoying the game.

If this game had a better story and less obnoxious characters it would be... up there. I'm really in love with so much about it.

Well after listening to the English version Mog, I have to say SE needs to put Japanese voice over next time....
Japanese Mog is sooo much better...
This will likely end up as one of my favorite FF games simply from a gameplay standpoint.
Indeed. The drops are even worse in the 360 version, though no worse than say.. Lost Odyssey. Interesting to note that both versions are the same native res this time around: 720p. Though I have to say, I'd take a slightly lower res if it meant a better framerate (maybe, maybe not.)
The only reason it feels so sloppy is because FF XIII looked just as good and hardly ever had framerate issues.

I don't know that I like it more than XII in this regard, but XIII-2 definitely has the best "traditional" style gameplay.
It's definitely the most "sleek" installment though for sure.
This will probably be less of an issue later when he's doing more damage before stagger, but for now, Chichu is kind of meh for stronger enemies because they usually get staggered pretty quickly, get launched by Noel, and Chichu only will use Ruin while they are in the air which is weaker than his normal attack.
Yup, XII is my favorite. So much to do in that game and I loved how all dungeons had a second half made for end game. The way the world is connected is ace, too.

Haven t gotten all fragments yet but ive completed the main quest and have about 103 of the fragments. Already safe to say infinitely more enjoyable than XIII for me, and though I like XIII this really makes it obvious how much I missed all the little things like finding secrets, and exploring hidden locations. Monster catching is obsessive.
I would be very happy for a XIII-3 now that they got the right idea, just need to give it more focus.

You think it's better in those ways than FF10-2?
Just heard the first (and hopefully last) j-pop metal hybrid. What the fuck guys? Hardcore fans think that this is a quality soundtrack? Really? I must say they did a lot better with the quests, the ability to jump around the world map easily, and the ability to run away before the fight begins. Dialogue and animation outside of CG is still pretty weak so far.
That's the only game from the ps era that I haven't played, well, I've played it for two hours and then stopped. My 60fat doesn't read discs so I lost my ability to play it there. What got me thinking about it lately was the announcement of X remake/HD uprez, if that sells well, then there should be good chances of X-2 receiving the same treatment, right?
