Don't be a thief to steal equipment from people. You want to be a mediator and invite them. It only cost 100 Jp, and you get the equipment and an extra person.

If you are stuck in a fight, make most of your people archers, give them the strongest bow you have and attack your foe from a distance. If you are on a higher surface you can shoot an arrow further.

For all those impatient Final Fantasy Tactics players, here is a way to get powerful skills and job classes extremely fast.
*a small hint to help you get started is to rid your party of everyone you do NOT intend to use later in the game to train, you can always go and hire new "troops" in any town, and use this technique to bring your new character up to par with the rest of your team.

The first step in this training technique is to change all of your players to be trained to squires, and teach them all the skill "gained JP up." This will help your characters to gain Job levels faster and learn skills also quicker. The next step is to change one of your characters to "Knight", or get a player in your party the skill Power break, and equip them to use it.
* Dont forget to equip everyone with gained JP up!

Strip all of your chacters of there retaliation abilities and weapons, except your Knight, or Knightly figure. Also set all or most of your characters to be able to use Item, and at leat a potion ability (depending on your level you be the judge of which potions you need) and phoenix down, just in case. No find a battle.

The next step is to get into a NON STORY RELATED BATTLE at any location, perferably one of the plains levels. Set your characters up in whatever formation you want. Have your Knightly figure kill all the enemy's in the battle except for one chocobo. Surround that chocobo, and power break it until it can only do 1 damage per attack. You can also power break all your unarmed characters to prevent accidental death of the animal. You are now free to beat the living crap out of the animal for as long as you please. Every time you hit it you will gain experience.

Your other party members present in battle will gain a small percentage of JP gained after each attack in the field of which the attack came from. If your really really really far in the game this tactic is a litle more difficult with inexperienced units. If you hire a new unit, regardless of it's position, it will start at lvl 1.

Surround that unit in a corner somewhere with all your units' armed except the the new guy. Have a mediator present with you as well, to use his/her skills to scare off enemy's by lowering their brave. Have the new character attacky your own people, and periodically heal them as neccesary.

Happy training!

You all Know that Normally, any undead creature can be harmed by cure spells and healing potoins, right? However, you might not have know that Phoneix Down has the opposite effect on undead creatures! That's right, Phoneix Down kills any undead creature automatically if you use it on them and it always has a one-hundred% chance of hitting!

This works great on battles like Yugo Woods and gives the Oracle's undead spell more of a sting!


Now, lets see, this thing kills the undead with always a 100% chance of hitting!? You decide if you should use it.

This Hint works the best on Barius Valley. Equip everyone on your team with either Accumulate, Yell, Cheer Up, or Throw Stone. Go to Barius Valley. If your enemies are on on the other side of the river then make sure they have one person who can't cross water like a Red Panther or Bull Demon. Kill all your enemies besides that monster. Then, put all your people on the other side of the rivet and use the skills I listed above as long as you want. Your characters will gain lots of levels and experience. The same thing goes if the enemy is on the side of you just that you don't need someone who can't cross water and all you need to do is corner the last enemy with your guys who have the highest Hp.

P.S. It works better the first way.

If you look at my Golgorand Execution Site hint then you'll notice the characters and how the should be to make the battle easy make them just like that except Agrias should have all her Holy Sword skills, you could make Ramza a Squire but it dosen't matter if he is that or a Monk, and your guys should have a much higher level. Beating him this way is so much eaiser. All you have to do is: Set Mustadio on Auto-Battle Fight For life on Queklain; He will do 30-36 Hp damage each turn wich may not seem like a lot, but is in the long run.Have Agrias get about 3-5 squares away from the Impure King and let him have either Holy Explosion or Lightning Stab. Obviously all you do with Ramza, the Knight, and the Minotorias is get right next to his fatiness and beat the ugly out of him.

Get it, IMPURE King, as in unhealthy, fat, ugly, etc... He has all those features!

Want to beat one of the arguably hardest battles in the game? Here's how:
First make all your characters like I listed below.

Ramza: Monk/ Monk Skills: Move-Hp Up, Martial Arts/ second ability: Guts/ Guts Skills: mastered/reaction ability: counter Tackle/ Support ability: Gained JP up/ Movment ability: Move-Hp Up


Agrias: Holy Knight: Holy Knight Skills: Statis Sword, Split Punch, Crush Punch/Second ability: anything/Reaction ability: Counter Tackle/Support ability: Gained JP Up./ Movement ability: Move+1


Mustadio:Engineer/Engineer Skills: Mastered/Reaction ability: Counter Tackle/ Support Ability: anything/ Movement ability: anything


Knight:Knight[of course]/Knight Skills: Head and/or Armor Beak, Weapon Break/second ability: Item/Item Skills: Potion and/or Hi potion and/or X potion, Phoniex Down


Minotorias[sp?]/Monster[a Minotorias of course] Only one requirment: 230+ Hp


Set Up
Put Mustadio on the far right because that is a ledge. Put Ramza 1 square away from Mustadio in the back. Agrias should be next to Ramza except one square farther up. The Knight and Minotorias Should be on the back of the next platform.

The Battle
Put Mustadio on auto battle Fight for Life on Gafgarion. Then wipe him [Gafgarion] out with Agrias and Ramza. After this proceed to take out everyone around the knight. The Knight is invaluable for keeping Ramza alive. Lastly, just gather all the members of your party and keep the survivors butt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, as for your Minotorias, use him to destroy anybody unlucky enough to wander into his path...


MUAH HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Make Ramza A Knight And Learn All The Skills.
Level Him To Level 50.
Then Make Him A Squire Learn All The Skills.
Level Him To 70.

To be almost invinceable in 1-1 battles you have to have the MP switch ability
(time mage), the move-MP up ability (oracle), and high brave. When someone attacks you it hurts your MP and if your MP is gone then when you walk your MP gets healed cause of move-MP up ability. This works for battles example.
(Weigraf, Gafgarion).

Hey for allof you people that are gullable and believe what the other people say about not using Ramza because as he levels up so do the monsters then you're screwed up in the head, Ramaza is your best friend and you should use him any chance you get because as he levels the monsters do and so does they're cash output plus you get more jp with higher levels.

First put on the cheat control all units then use talk skill on algus and youll get 25 to a 17% chance but keep trying and kill him then he will join you, have fun!!

I have done pretty much everything in the game.

I only have to go to Orbonne Monastery to finish the game.

But, Every time I go to Neveleska Temple.. nothing happens. so how do I get Cloud?

By the way... whats the Deep Dungeon?

This is for the second fight:first kill every one except for two people.

Bring down one of the enimies to low life then chase him to the roof (were Delita is always close to) corner him until hes at an edge then heal him then keep on dashing or throwing rocks until he falls.

The falls usually do around 10 to 20 life and are a cool way to kill a guy couse its fun to watch.The second dude is to keep Delita away from the jumping man.

While using the technique to earn more experience and jp by casting the 'frog' spell on your enemy and stealing money from him, your one player has nothing to do. That person can either accumulate as a squire, or use the 'cure' ability on the others. It worked for me, hope it will work for you. Have fun, guys.
