o===========================================================================o

Dissidia: Final fantasy is hopefully the first game of many which involves 
many characters of the Final Fantasy universe, with a hero and villian from
each of the games from I up to X, and also has a character from XI and XII.

|                               Walkthrough                        [WLKTH01]|
o===========================================================================o

Completing the story mode wil let you advance through the game and will open
up more conent that will often have unknow requirements.  After completing
the prologue you will unlock the rest of the story mode, which upon
completing will unlock more content.

o===========================================================================o
|                                Prologue                          [PRLOG01]|
o===========================================================================o

The prologue is the only tutorial that you will get in the game.  It shows
you how to to move around the chess like stages, which is based on a 8x5 
area.  When you move from your home spot, you will use up 1 DP (which stands
for Destiny Point).  When you move about the map your enemies will not move
with you, which means that you can plan ahead on what your going to do.

However, just because the pieces don't move, it doesnt mean that they woun't
be agressive.  You can tell if an enemy is aggresive or not because an
agressive opponent will be red.  If the piece is aggressive then they will
attack you, forcing you into a battle.  If your surrounded your enemies will
become agressive, which is a great way to save on DP.

|Stage 1|

S = Start
G = Goal

DP start = 1

DP end = 0

Reward = 100 Gil

On this stage, the only piece that you will see is the Stigma of Chaos.  This
is you goal.  You need to move over to it and highlight it with your pointer.
When you have press the X button to interact with it.  When you do this, it
will shatter and you will move on to the next stage.

o=======o
|Stage 2|
o=======o

      Forces forged of darkness 
      stand in the warrior�s way. 
What, then, drives this soulless legion?

   [ ][ ]   [ ][ ]
[S][ ][ ][1][ ][P][G]
   [ ][ ]   [ ][ ]

o===o
|Key|
o===o

S = Start
G = Goal
P = Potion
1 = Enemy: False Hero, Lvl 1

DP Start = 3

Dp end = 0

Reward = 10PP

On this stage we see our first enemy piece.  Remember that these pieces don't
have a turn, unlike chess.  In this game the only piece that can move is you,
the player.  This allows us to plan a stratergy later on in the game.

The enemy here is just a helmet, which means that this is an easy enemy for
where you should be in the game.

On the loading screen of a battle you can see waht equipment the enemy is
using, which allows you to plan on a how to take them on.  For this battle
all you need to do is attack like you did in the training at the very start
of the game.

When you've won the battle, go fowards and pick up the potion that is infront
of you and again, interact with the stigma to destroy it and advance to the
next stage.

o=======o
|Stage 3|
o=======o

   Only those with the courage and 
  wisdom to know their own strength
can triumph over the greatest of foes...

      [ ][ ][ ]
[S][ ][1][ ][C][ ][G]
      [ ][ ][ ]

o===o
|Key|
o===o

S = Start
G = Goal
C = Chest (Broadsword)
1 = Enemy: False hero, Lvl 1 (DP+1)

DP start = 3

DP end = 1-0

Reward = 300 Gil (1 DP)
         10PP (0 DP)

OK for this stage we will be introduced to 2 new aspects of the game.  The
first are skills, which will give you a boost on the field.  The first skill
that you get is Maser Eye, which will decrease the HP of an oppenent by
10%.  As you proceed through the story you will obtain more skills.

The second is a DP enemy.  DP Enemies will give you DP if you manage to meet
their battle objective.  In this battle you need to defeat the enemy within
10 seconds.

To do this use O attacks (Bravery) until they have nothing left and then use
a [] (HP) attack to finish the Maniquin off.  What ever you do, do not use
your EX mode as it will go over the time limit.

After this battle open the chest.  The chest contains a Broadsword, which
you should equip now by pressing the triangle button and selectiing 
equipment and optimise.  After doing so head on to the Stigma and destroy
it, advancing to the forth stage.

o=======o
|Stage 4|
o=======o

   Battle follows upon battle,
    yet the power to overcome
countless foes in is within reach...

         [1][ ][ ]
[S][ ][ ][ ]   [G]
         [2][ ][ ]

o===o
|Key|
o===o

S = Start
G = Goal
1 = Enemy: False Hero, Lvl 1 (DP+1)
2 = Enemy: False Hero, Lvl 1 (DP+1)

DP start = 2

DP end = 2-0

Rewards = 600 Gil (2 DP)
          20PP (1 DP)
          10PP (0 DP)
          

If you were able to get the 300 gil reward in the prrevious stage, you will
be able to afford some new equipment, but sadly, Warrior of light can't 
equip any of it.

In this stage you will fight two enemies, which surround you.  This will be
your first time with an enemy that goes agrrivated on you.

When I played this stage, I personally took on the top enemy [1] first.  In
this battle make sure to use the EX mode straight away, as your given a full
core to start the battle off with, allowing you to get the DP.

In the next battle, again ativate EX burst, but continully use Bravery
attacks and you will get a critical hit with in the time limit.  After the
battles, head to the Stigma and advance to the final stage of the Prologue.

o=======o
|Stage 5|
o=======o

 Only those whose will to overcome
all trials never falters may secure
        a brighter future...

[ ][ ][ ]   [ ][ ]
[S][ ][C][ ][ ][B]
[ ][ ][ ]   [ ][ ]

S = Start
C = Chest (Power Ring)
B = Boss: False Stalwart, Lvl 1

DP start = 2

DP end = 0

Reward = 

Ok so this is the final stage of this part of the story.  On all of the final
stages you will take part in a boss battle.  in some odysseys you will have
to fight more than one boss.  Thankfully this boss is that tough, in fact,
I would say  is just as easy as the normal battles.

Open the chest to get a Power Ring which will add 5% to your damage.  Equip
this in the accessories option on the customisation menu and carry on to
the boss.

After deafeating the boss you will have completed the first part of the
story.  For doing so you will obtain cure as a skill and unlock the Destiny
Odyessys to play and the PP catalogue.
