Just keep them all - they'll come into use later.
Most sell for practically nothing anyways and there isn't much to buy either.

It doesn't take long at all. Start -> select brings you to the title menu, just reload the save from there. Takes about 20 secs tops.luxarific said:

I believe he's referring to the all-purpose Entite Rings (not the ones that protect against individual elements)... do they help out at all there?Yoshichan said:
Instead of selling them, I would instead recommend upgrading/dismantling them for Ribbons.

If you spent 30 minutes in the boss of end of chapter 11, you're doing it wrong.
I spent 12 minutes, without any leveling or hunting, with level1 weapons, using Light, Hope, Fang.
1.- RAV/SYN/SEN (or MED/SYN/SEN), until hope gives the team the support pack (Veil, Protect, Shell, Bravery, Faith).
2.- RAV/RAV/COM and MED/RAV/COM (when needed), until knockout (bravery and faith will help to do a lot of damage, protect and shell will make you keep the RAV/RAV/COM most of time).
3.- During 2/3 of knockout, RAV/RAV/COM
4.- The last 1/3 of knockout, MED/SYN/SAB to heal the damage received during the previous step, restock buffs and enter debuffs (Slow and 2 others that I don't remember)
5.- When knockout is out, go to 2.
In the last part, when he make the ultra-debuff magic, use Dispelga, and go to 1.

Grinding my way through Chapter 9.
Does this fucking chapter ever end? As soon as I think I'm almost done, it just keeps going.

Start on the dogs and flans and work your way up to other, more imposing enemies once you can dispatch those pretty quickly. Also, do the missions because the entire point of the early ones is to give you an aim while you're in chapter 11 (they're way too easy to be meant for chapter 13).Thrakier said:
You only need the items at one point.burgerdog said:
Don't need to hold all the items at the same time.
You can get a ribbon by maxing out goddess favor and then dismantling it.
If you don't have a goddess favor, you can buy an entite ring from sanctums lab and upgrade it to a goddess favor using a uraninite.

I loved the fights with the Women soldier people, they were interesting fights. Flanitors were a different story. Anyway, that chapter has my favorite cutscene and boss fight!

I think it was that she had a brand, the focus was partially fulfilled but they failed then they were crystallized. Then upon reawakening, it was reinvigorated. Thats what I gathered after finishing the game.

What I want to know is why was Vanille the only one with a Sailor Moon transformation

Rebranded but same focus. She was branded immediately after her decrystalization though.

BeeDog said:Alright, chapter 11 is pissing me off because of my crapness. Pretty much any enemy type rapes me in the face, so I said fuck it and started wandering towards the quest marker. In that small area, those Hoplites aren't giving me too much trouble, but the Boxed Phalanx that spawn an insane amount of Hoplites completely obliterate me.Any suggestions on what I should do?
Did you get past this yet? I actually just walked past him altogether - if you walk past the two hoplites, he will turn and let you run past. I only did 5 of the challenges before moving on
with the story. I did grind hoplites in the caverns for a while (easy preemptive) and then the sixth floor of the tower because I felt underpowered in those places. Got through the rest of the game without a ton of trouble

If you notice before the rest get branded they only have 2 ATB bars, only getting their 3rd when they become L'Cie, but Vanille has 3 from the getgo.
6 hours into Gran Pulse. Damn this game gets harder and harder the farther along you get. Other than the graphics and music, the battle system and challenge are reasons to play this game. The story is so broken its not even funny, and the characters(except Lightning) are shitty. The writing is also atrocious, some of the worst I have ever seen in a videogame. Still though, the combat system is really deep, fast paced, and more cinematic looking than any other RPG in history, it really does keep your blood pumping and you'll be sweating bullets at the games tougher battles.

She also conveniently knew where her brand was without having to look around
Die Squirrel Die said:
That's...an amazing, acute little observation. I'm actually a little surprised Square threw in that detail if it's true.
Here comes a stupid question, three days after beating the game: is it actually possible to see your non-leader member's ATB gauges anywhere? :lol Or did you just watch how many abilities she used per turn?

You can see the each party members ATB level in the Status screen or the Crystarium screen.
I noticed it when playing as her in Chapter 2. Since she's the first person you use I thought it was a chapter progression thing, until it switched to Snow and Lightning sections.
I didn't realise why that was the case until much later.

I just went all out when he was in healing/guard mode (com/rav/rav), I think I did delta attack (com/sen/rav) or solidarity (com/sen/med) when he was in attack mode...of course combat clinic when health gets too low. Basically what I have found with bosses is to not "play it safe", go for damage as much as possible. I have never ran into a doom timer on any boss with this approach.
I can't remember exactly, but I know the AoE devasting move he does follows his guard stance and it's pretty easy to see when it's coming. If you're at medium health then preemptively switch to combat clinic, if your health is all green then just stay in com/rav/rav until he uses the move.

Uhm, how the hell am I supposed to be able to beat
and staggered him, used my summon and that only took out about a quarter of his health. Then I had almost staggered him again and he used Destrudo (sp?) and it reset the stagger bar and afterwards killed my entire party in one hit. WTF?!
I'm using Lightning, Snow, and Hope.
Barth? I took out all of the heads
I'm using Lightning, Snow, and Hope.

Takes me 1:28 to do the door reset (running to the door, going through, running back).
Takes me 1:26 to run to the save point next to the now gone and drop-less turtle, save my current game (to preserve the drop I did get prior to this drop-less turtle), quit, navigate to the load option, load my save, sit through the scrolling text screen (the A option only comes up after half the text has scrolled), and then I'm back at the new turtle.
Load times must be different on the PS3 version, I guess.
Also, I tried killing the 2nd Juggernaut, no new turtle.
Diablos said:
Who are you using? You can beat him in various ways, but I recommend a tank and debuffing. That boss battle was more of an endurance battle than anything really challenging.
IronFistedChampion said:
Hit him when he's charging for that attack, it'll reduce the damage. Don't concentrate so heavily on reaching Stagger, sometimes if you just balance surviving and attacking you get there eventually.
Don't bother using the summon unless you're in desperate straits.

Relentless Assault to stagger, Relentless Assault should be the default after giving your team all of the buffs. Heal using Renew, and use Combat Clinic when the boss should be able to attack or end his staggering phase. The goal is to just go as fast as possible with damaging the boss as well as getting to the stagger point and doing damage then. For me, healing was always last resort as Renew is pretty great with healing, and combat clinic heals adequate for the boss painfully devastating attacks.
Target time should be 8 or so minutes if I remember, so it isnt in reality a difficult fight.
( I did it with Light, Hope, and Fang, though I assume Snow is interchangable with Fang so both should usually act as a Sentinel and a Commander)

So close to beating him and the fucker cast Death on me. :'(

My Lightning doesn't have Renew and using Combat Clinic is pointless as she's a Lvl.1 MED. Only Hope and Snow have Renew, but they can't use it because I'm controlling Lightning.Dedication Through Light said:
