Just beat Alexander in Chapter 11 so I'm free to run around Grand Pulse! Might start to do some missions to get more CP :)

Go do missions 1-14. 14 is "special" ;) You will get something special that will help you out a LOT ;)

I tried to do mission 62 to get a genji glove and got owned hard, I will look it up before attempting it next time. I have 4 roles for everyone maxed so far. 2 more for each to go -__-

[Slane]

So beat the boss of 11 and ran and got 55 and went to go kill the dude. First time up, didn't bother to setup any proper paradigms as I just wanted to see it before I started. I'm using teh death method.

My second cast of death and I killed him. No other paradigms to survive and slowly kill the little dudes. :(

Back to it and this time I got some proper paradigms setup to combat this guy.

Edit not even 5 minutes later. The very next time went in, death went off on the third cast. Jumped into Combat Clinic to heal snow and co back to full then just kept going to Delta Attack (Rav/Rav/Sen) and back to Combat Clinic to kill the little guys.

4 minutes later. Mission complete. 5 stars, 62500CP and the Growth Egg!!!!!

At the end of the chapter you will be inside Hope's House. Once the house is attack there will be two group of soliders. Attack one then run around the "circle" (it's more rectangle shaped) kill the other, and the first group will have respond. Just keep running around in circles killing these two groups. It'll net you CP, but since you need gil the soliders drop two items that sell. Credit Chip for 500 and Incentive Chip for 2500. Farm as long as you want. Once you step out you will face the boss and end the chapter. (though there's another really good spot in Chapter 9).

Just got to the boss fight

with Barthandelus and wasn't prepared to fight him. Was so close to beating him though, then he cast DOOM on me and I panicked. Went with relentless assault and forgot to heal before he used destrudo

and I ended up dead :cry: He only had 30,000 HP left!

Next time I'll use Snow as he has 1800 HP.

I just beat him and he didn't cast Doom on me. I was waiting for it. It was a pretty easy fight for me. A little long.

When I was on that fight the HP of my character's, Lightning, Fang and Hope, were in the 4000s. I'm at the beginning of Chapter 12. Now I'm finally going to get the two weapons I'm going to upgrade for Hope and Lighting. :D

EDIT: Wait where are you? lol

You had 4000 HP in Chapter 9? lol

I started a new game as no matter what tactics I used, my characters would always get beaten by basic enemies like Giant Flans on Gran Pulse. It was extereeemely irritating.

So I'm grinding a lot more this time, and upgrading different weapons/paradigms with balance when it comes to mag/str rather than leaning towards one stat. Hopefully I'll be better off this time.

lol. I'm on Chapter 9 and haven't really grinded to level up. Most characters are max at level 3 on 2/3 roles. If I had summoned Odin that boss would have been dead :angry:

Awesome, thanks for the tip :) I'm up to Mission 3 now at Vallis Media farming for more CP.

[DPyro]

OK....now I'm ****ed off.

I tried two more times and both times he cast doom on me when he still had 50% of his health left...WTF??? The first time I played he didn't cast doom till 30,000 health was left!

Doom or destru?

Doom is normally casts when you are taking to long to kill him.

Destru, just means keep damaging him hard and you'll interrupt his attacks and that attack will do barely any damage.

[DPyro]

Ya, I know what to do now - don't waste time defending and do an all out attack. I will be following this guide later.

[Slane]

Finished the game. :)

Also got "Superstar" on the last boss. Gotta love it when Light/Fang/Hope all hit for 99999 at 800% stagger. :)

Gotta say that ending is by far one of the most amazing I've seen from any game.

Hope they do a second one and continue with this story and if they do, hopefully that isn't a failsauce like X2.

[sundayx Veteran]

GTFO Cid, yahoo!

[Jake Quigglez]

Can anyone help me with the Chapter 5 boss?

Strategies and such?

COM/RAV until he's at about 120%, then RAV/RAV for the rest. Throw in a medic paradigm for healing, and having a Synergist role in there somewhere to start the battle off helps. Don't bother summoning.

[Jake Quigglez]

Okay, thanks a lot!

Ill try that out tomorrow. What do you suggest I use with the medic? A COM perhaps?
