Star Ocean: Till the End of Time Hints for PlayStation 2
For those that have not played the game up to this part turn away now to avoid ruining the gaming experience.ahem.....the final battle against "luther"is extremely difficult as he is at a very high level,the highest in the game so care is needed.first off the team,and the best team for this battle is:striker,brawler,healer but not required in that order.the team members are:fayt leingod,sophia esteed,cliff fittir.the reason why this team is the best is because:the striker fayt,is quick and to the point and so he's good at fast attacks to confuse the enemy.the healer sophia,has a wide array of healing an elemental symbols and so she can heal the striker,she is also a triple threat as she has strong support,defensive and offensive symbols.the brawler cliff,is a all rounder powerhouse who has the speed of a striker and physical strength comparable to sophia's attack symbols.his job is to keep enemies busy and away from the healer.now people who play this game should be told there are actually two final battles that involve the same boss.in the final battle part1,luther will be just your average fourth dimensional being.but in part2 he fuses himself to the universe and becomes vastly more powerful and he can now fly.at this stage in the game fayt should know the "dimension door" attack which is his most powerful attack.sophia should know explosion,ex heal and farie light.cliff should know all of his hammer attacks and megaton attacks and should learn healing early in the game.you should also be at level 65 or higher(although when I first beat the game I was only at level 55-58.).and if people don't know already this game has a secret two player mini game that you can find on the second planet you land on in an ancient underground city.it's called the celestial chess board or something and allows a second player to participate,but only in the mini game.
In Pesotto Forest, you can fight Noblemen. If you reduce their health a certain amount, they will use "Spare Me" and drop a Copper Idol. If you hit them right after the item drops but before they can run away, you can do this twice per battle. You can sell each Idol for 200 fol. Do this to your heart's content...you will need the fol for healing items very soon, and when you get to Airyglyph, if you save enough fol, you can either get a very strong weapon or armor.
Here is a tip for you fools who don't know how to get experience fast.Make a orachilum and use smithery.Use it to max and then, synthatise it to a good wepaon to any character.Then engeneeering again(if I remember), and then you should have a attack strenght on over 5000.
NOTE!: You will need a large ammount of money to do this attack rising trick!Battle a lot to get as much fol as possible.Hope I helped!If my not work, please , note me!(but I already know it works.)
Happy cheating! By: Nal_rA
Tired of dieing all of the time? I shall save you with my wisdom!
Equip gusty bunny {you can get it from Vanilla by paying her 20,000 fol} then fight the convicters in the area , you should get more expericence than normal.
BE CAREFUL, IT'LL ALSO MAKE THE CONVICTERS STRONGER SO LEVEL UP ALOT BEFORE DOING THIS, SO BEST TRY ON THE ENFORCERS FIRST TO SEE HOW MUCH LEVELING YOU NEED...
To get easy experience you must follow three steps!listen carefully now!
1.Fight a enemy with at least 120chain bonus(the line to right)and when it says tripel experience do NOT ESCAPE!!!your chain bonus will break then!fight the enemy and the swith party members.
2.Choose a good alchemist in any workshop and select specify plan.Then select original invention.(i recomend that you set the prive very high like 6000-8000)then you should have a orachilum wich raises your attack 8000.pick a bad weapon like rogers battle axe and make it synthasise orachilum and battle axe.
3.go out and fight again!
I have Fayt on LV:200 with a little more than 50000hp and 9999attack strenght.I have maria on LV:255 with a little more than 59000hp and 9999attack and Albel on LV:255 with a little more than 70000hp and 9999 ATK.All of them have a defense on 9999.Trust me!it works;) if oou have any problems please contact me!
In sphere I don't know wich level she should be at sphere 156 I think.(dont remember)you have to have at least 2000damage and 1500 defense on you characters.i used fayt on LV:199 and used dimension door all the time wich was on LV:10 and max cp points.
Then I used albel too.I think he was on LV:255 and let him use ice beam all the time!(he will learn ice beam around LV:100 I think...im not sure but I was in lv 100 when he learned that ability.)
Anyway use cliff to!let him use the acrobatic locus and hammer of might!the two strongest requniqhes he can do.(im not so sure about my spelling cause I'm from sweden and I cantt spell very good..)
Let Fayt use Dimension door and Side kick and let Albel use Ice beam all the time and air slash!!!use cliffs acrobatic locsus and Hammer Of Might!hope it will hel now bye!

Luther:
First off, his first form is pretty easy. If your party is at a high level (75+, you should let them take care of it and you just sit back and heal with items or symbology.
The second time, it's different. Do NOT waste recovery items on your party members on the second time around. Save them for yourself, youll need them. If your other party members die, resurrect them with items. NOT symbology.
Now, lets begin. When you fight Luther the second time, he grows these hand-shaped wings. Meaning he'll be faster. Luther has a pattern to his attacks. He always uses Flaming Divide around 6 times then uses Perfect Symetry. Flaming Divide: Stand still. It's a weak attack and wont break your anti-aura. Perfect Symmetry, run for your damn life. After you leave him with around half his life hell start using Insanity Prelude. To dodge, get to the little slivers of land outside of the battlefield circle. While insanity Prelude is in effect Luther can't move. Use this chance to cast Explosion, Heal, or whatever. The only reason Luther is hard is because of Insanity Prelude. Dodge that and the battle's yours.
Gabriel Celesta:
What can I say? He's extremely fast. The attack he uses the most is a quick, yet strong slash that you should dodge. Lighting Feather is weak. Dragons attack, not so much. To dodge, step outside of magic circle. His weakness is his strenght. Set the anti-aura to damage and let him do the work with his Lightning Feather. He should do a lot of damage to himself.
I'll continue some other time.
When I said for all the characters strenght to 9999 I think you have to use each character seperately as I tried doing it again with fayt but it says they can only issue one of these prizes to a single person, so if it does work for the other characters let me know as I am still focusing on kicking the hell out of Gabriel Celestra

You can do this after the game only unless you done some serious power leveling before going to sphere. You will need dimension door on strong attack short range (level MAX) and air raid minor attack short(MAX level) take on the single s rank in the battle arena, but before you start make sure you have a lot of mp bombs or puffys Hybrid mp bombs these will help agains the chimera and the final monster.
Breeze through as normal and on round 4 use your mp bombs till the chimera drops (he has about 15000 mp the final one is a bit harder but use the same tactic stun bombs will also help.
Once you beaten round 5 you get given a very useful item I can't remember the name but it raises your attack by 1000. The only catch is it is a synthesis material so go to a work shop and select specify plan on the "writ" function and select the item you can do this 8 times so a total of 8000 attack can be added when you go to Snth.
On the menu select your strongest weapon and select the newly improved 8000 attack book and synthensize when you see the thumbs up expression don't cancel it by selecting it let it run on it's own untill it ends automatically stopping it early means you wont get all the properties of the synthesis.
Depending on your level this will raise fayts base damage to around 15000 minor attack and 32000 major attack and when used with cancel bonuses you can hit the almighty 99999(gives trophy) with this said you can do this for all the characters but make sure you have enough materials and a spare 1-1.5 million fol, and you should be near invincible.
Considreing you should blast through the rank battles in gemity and make very light work of the top two teams and the "reigning Champions" I am not saying who they are but they are the last people you would least expect..
And no it's Flad and Blair
I'm not sure if this affects the invention (it hasnt affected any of mine) but when you place your character order in the line before you begin the invention process, if you switch their order around but keep them in the same line, the price will change. For instance, I had Cliff and Fayt in one line. The cost was 114. I switched Cliff and Fayt around so that Fayt was now first and Cliff was second. The price went down to 65! Hope this helps!
Sometimes, you are having so much fun that you don't bother to see what new abilities your characters have learned from levelling up. That happens to me too.
But, there are some things you don't want to miss out on. New abilites are the first thing, as they can be used to help you in combat. Then there are Skill Points, too.
They can be used to boost your stat power. So whatever you do- don't forget to check the freakin' status screen. Sometimes, your characters will learn new symbological moves as well, and if they slip by unnoticed, then you could be at a disadvantage.
This is my recommendation...
If you can't beat Luther in the final floor of the spiral tower, then there's a good way to train and level up. In the last floor of the spiral tower, there are only bio-chimeras.
They usually only give you 6666 exp when you beat them. However, what you should do is, when you fight one, use a Simbologist ( Fayt preferably), and stay far away, casting simbology spells.
Your people should be able to hit it enough times to get the bonus battle gauge full. Keep doing bonus battle chains until you get triple exp. With triple exp, the chimera gives you a grand total of 20,000 exp.
Keep doing this and you should level up in no time.
A lot of trophies on the game are hard to get so I well tell you how to get the three hardest trophies trophy 130: defeat luther a.ka. the last boss at level one.
Now you might say some thing like that is to beeping hard and it is but it is possibel to do this. Go all the way to the 1st boss wethout geting in to battles and at the mini boss just scare them so thay run away at the 1st boss die and let Cliff win and remove Fayt from the party. far in the game you will see Sophie and Peppita let them come along and fight Luther make sure you have a lot of MP damage items.
Trophy 46: win by freezing all when you get to the battel arena poison the monsters and let them freez you and when thay all die you win.
Trophy 295: Hit with battle sphere 5 times the esey way to get the battel sphere is to have a invanting line of Fayt, Cliff, and Maria at a cost of $280 it might take a lot of tras so save befor invanting it.
Go to Kirsla Caves when in a fight use the battel sphere on 5 falling rocks. This was your lord and master the Dragoon King.
I have masterd the game two times so don't overlook any other cheats I may write.
