---------------------------
Chapter 1, Hanged Edge [cr4.1]
--------------------------
Restricted Zone
���������������������
You'll take control of Lightning and Sazh for this first part, after the
opening credits you'll immediatly be pitted against your first boss:
+++~~~..BOSS BATLLE..~~~+++
���������������������������
Boss Name: Manasvin Warmech.
HP: Phase 1: 1500, Phase 2: 1900, 3400HP overall.
This Boss has no Weaknessess available
Strategy:
���������������������������
This guy is basically just a tutorial fight, he'll fall extremely easily
just attack with both Lightning and Sazh and should your HP get low use
a potion or use the spell cure, too easy.
Remember to Skip the ATB tutorial.
Difficulty 1/10
----------------------------
After finishing of this guy he'll fall off the street, you'll get a cutscene
along with the bronze trophy "Instrument of Faith" once again you can
choose to skip the camera tutorial, the funny thing is all you need to
know about the camera is that you can move it using the Right analog
stick on your PS3 Controller.
Once you regain control, head further down the street, there should be a
save point somewhere on the left, you can save here, later on you can
shop and remodell accessories and weapons right here but don't worry
about that right now.
Head straight down the path you were at before heading to the save
point on the left, eventually you'll find a bunch of PSICOM soliders, just
enter
the battle and kill them, they're easy so just normal attacks and cure
(only in critical conditions) should get you through really, really easily.
Once again continue, head over the wreckage blocking your path, there
should be some PSICOM soldiers ahead of you once again, kill the
sorry SOB's, then head over another pile of wreckage, they really made
these maps way to linear..., loot the treasure on your left, return to the
main path, continue forward once again for cut-scene time.
Return to the street once again, you'll find a save point squished over
near some crates, once again continue on for another cut-scene, this
will lead you into a battle once again, skip or take the item tutorial, it is
entirely your
own choice, once you've mopped the floor with them use the stairs on
the left of where you are, then jump down on to another platform, there
should be some controls right there, press the O button to activate them
and move the platform down to street-level, you'll have pissed off a
PSICOM Official.
+++~~~..BOSS BATLLE..~~~+++
���������������������������
Boss Name: PSICOM Officer, 2x PSICOM Soldiers.
HP: Unknown
No weaknesses are available on this Boss.
Strategy:
���������������������������
This will be trickier than the Warmech, take care of the PSICOM Soliders
first, then focus on the officer, once again cure and potions when your
health is low, make sure Lightning does not fall, or otherwise you get a
game over.
Make sure to Skip or Take the Chain Break tutorial.
Boss difficulty: 3/10
----------------------------
After this the section of Hanged Edge, you will lose control of Lightning
and Sazh and gain control of Snow and the dedicated members of
Team Nora.
Resistance Front
������������������������
You'll start here, you'll be controlling Snow (Snow FTW!), continue
straight down the road and you'll see a save point somewhere on your
right, then as you keep on moving down you'll get a cut-scene, this will
initiate your first fight with Snow and friends, this should be laughing
easy with Snow's Grenade Skill, you can grind on the enemies here.
Eventually the Boss for Snow's area will spawn after continueing down
the linear path:
+++~~~..BOSS BATLLE..~~~+++
���������������������������
Boss: Behemoth.
HP: Unknown
This Boss has no elemental weakness
Strategy:
���������������������������
This Boss is just easy central!, just use Snow's Grenade to keep it
down and Team Nora's attacks to neuter it once and for all, an extremely
easy boss.
Boss Difficulty: 0/10
---------------------------
You'll regain control of Sazh and Lightning for one battle, dispatch them
ASAP so you can get back to controlling Snow and Team Nora.
Once back with Snow and Team Dora, I mean Nora, go and kill the
enemies and then you'll eventually find some steps (no save point
ehh??) proceed through all of the steps and you'll get a small battle,
mop the floor with them then inspect the hoverbikes to end this chapter.
Bronze Trophy "Instrument of Dissent" is earned for finishing Hanged
Edge, for chapter 2, we will gain control of Hope and Vanille
---------------------------------
Chapter 2: The Pulse Fal'Cie [cr4.2]
---------------------------------
Lowerworld Vestige
���������������������������
You'll arrive at the Fal'Cie, then you'll be thrust into a rather simple battle
with Vanille and Hope, once you're finished with the enemies then go to
the save point and buy iron bangles for 50Gil for all your Characters, the
notable chest here is one that yields a new weapon for Lightning, there
is an arrow telling you where to go, on a linear map like this you should
almost no trouble gettign to your destination.
Follow the arrows and fight off all the enemies in here, you'l also get a
tutorial on pre-emptive strike, skip it or take it, but pre-emptive stikes just
means an advantage at the start of the battle by initiating the battle by
touching the enemy on the back.
Area Abilities (like your good friend Grenade) work very well against the
monsters here, the boss shouldn't be very far off in this Linear map, the
bosses name is unknown to me so should you have the data, send it to
me.
+++~~~..BOSS BATLLE..~~~+++
���������������������������
Boss Name: Unknown
HP: Unknown
There are no weaknesses available for this Boss.
Strategy:
���������������������������
Not the easy treatment you have been getting in the previous bosses,
just kill the arms ASAP, then get to the body, don't worry about getting
the arms after they regenerate, that would just take way too long, the
arms will regenerate as many times as they want until you kill the body.
Area Skills and Curing make this boss a dull boss.
Boss Difficulty: 5.5/10
---------------------------
You will gain the bronze trophy "Instrument of Tragedy"
------------------------
Chapter 3: Lake Bilge [cr4.3]
------------------------
Hmm...This place looks so much like Macalania Forest from FFX, yet
they named it "Lake Bilge" ....Please, Square Enix, anyways take the little
loop on the left and get the little orb to nab the treasure inside, Return to
the main road and jump on the crystal right in front of you.
Run ahead and you'll see some enemies run ahead and kill the
enemies, keep on running and grab the treasure, run back and go
through the cross road on the left, keep on moving ahead you'll find
some jumping gecko enemies, attack them, then obtain the treasure
that's there, run back and head through the rather obvious path and
save your game the save point, go around the fork in the road, your party
members will have a conversation, then you'll have a scene again,
follow the path and you'll encounter more enemies, quickly dispatch
them then run to the east for some more treasure, pass through the
rings, to continue to the other side of the path.
You'll find even some more enemies, there's a fork further up the road
leading to some treasure, then go back and take the other side of the
road, jump around the chain and continue through to a bridge made of
scrap metal, there's a save point here as well.
Continue along the bridge for a scene(hmm...Lightning Hits
Snow...Classic) you'll be delved into a boss
the Bosses name is unknown to me:
+++~~~..BOSS BATLLE..~~~+++
���������������������������
Boss Name: Unknown.
HP: Unknown
No weaknesses available for this boss
Strategy:
���������������������������
Normal attacks and area attacks are the way to go, change your
Optima's frequently, you should always have someone heal, that's the
way to go, watch out for it's laser attack, it hits hard, and lot's of times,
so heal afterwards.
Boss Difficulty: 6/10
---------------------------
You'll get a scene after this, once you're back in control, you'll have a
party of Lightning, Vanille and Sazh after this as Snow will leave the
party, follow the arrow onto a pretty straightforward path, just keep on
going, OMG this game is linear, send the enemies ahead to kingdom
come, take the right side of the ring, loot the treasure chest and jump off
it, then just jump off into a beam, you;ll find a couple of treasure chests
in this area, go back up the beam and you'll find another beam, you'll
know this on is right because it's longer, there should be some
enemies that surprise you by jumping out of the blue, keep on going, yet
another beam.
Kill the large amount of enemies there and grab the treasure, return up
the beam and then turn to the right, keep on running forward and go
onto the right of the path to kill a pack of enemies, grab the treasure, go
back there shoudl be a machine there, examine it, then kill the enemies
on the bridge, reach the other side of the bridge, and move up the path,
there will be a save point on your right, save, update your crystallium
and move on.
You'll get an enemy coming up, skip the tutorial on TP abilities, Libra
this guy, and just keep attacking and hitting it and heal whene
necessary, grab the treasure on the right fork of the road, go back on the
main road, keep running forward for a scene.
From there just follow the main path, the arrow should be easy to follow,
it's so straight and ther are hardly any enemies, eventually you'll reach
what appears to be a tunnel, keep on running through with the arrow,
you'll eventually find what appears to be a bunch of stairs, jump over
onto the beam, then keep on running, follow the arroiw all around the
place, you'll find a save point nearby, save and continue, follow the
arrows as the path is completly linear until the next boss/es:
+++~~~..BOSS BATLLE..~~~+++
���������������������������
Boss Name: ???
HP: Unknown
No weaknesses are available for this boss
Strategy:
���������������������������
Nice umm...Giant Mechanical Dragon Thingy, there are two stages to
this Boss, one is easier than the other, just have someone heal and
have two people attack, watch out for its attacks as they can hit pretty
hard, in the second part he'll release a giant purple ball attack that hits
your party members for around 200 HP, HEAL AFTER THIS, then it is
pretty easy to get the rest of him, just watch out for his strongest attacks
and take care of your party leader, you won't be going anywhere if they
die.
Boss Difficulty: 7/10
Your crystarium level wil go up after this, Yay!.
-----------------------------
Then it's scene time, after that scene you will have even another scene,
this one is with Snow, cool!, after that you'll be in a Battle with just snow
agains't some soldiers, they're pretty weak but they hit hard too and
theres lot's of them, Defeated or not, it's scene time once more.
You'll be pitted against the Shiva Sisters
+++~~~..BOSS BATLLE..~~~+++
���������������������������
Boss Name: Shiva Sisters, Styria and Nix
HP: Unknown
No weaknesses available for this boss
Strategy:
���������������������������
Well, this is basically a tutorial battle, Snow will have a countdown on
top of him, if it reaches down to 0, then you will die and it's game over.
The best strategy for this battle is not to attack at all, Styria will heal you,
so you cannot die, just keep Snow in the Defender Role at all times and
just Spam Rise guard.
You will get an ATB level up along with the Shiva sisters for Snow, that is
the end of this Chapter.
You'll obtain the Bronze Trophy "Instrument of Flight" and you'll proceed
to the next Chapter:
--------------------------
Chapter 4: The Vile Peaks [cr4.4]
--------------------------
This is the Chapter in which you fight Odin, he's tough so better brace
yourselves and level up.
There will be a scene to start you off as usual and once again you'll be
thrust in to battle against some really easy enemies, once it's dead
you'll get another scene.
Forced Party of Sazh and Vanille, turn to the right for a bridge, there will
be a scene if you should try to move to the right, then you'll get another
another scene as soon as that one is done, you'll continue through with
another forced party of Lightning and Hope.
Go forward if you go to the right of the big center area, jump over the
rubble, then prepare for a fihgt, once that is done then just move forward
and grab the treasure, head back to the big circular area, and save if
needed, you can also buy things and remodell weapons should the
need come.
Move to the top of the blockage, there will be some enemies, kill them,
they should be easy even with a two person party, head forward, and
jump to the massive circular area, then jump again to the other side of
the mountain, then jump over the rubble, kill the enemies up front, thet
aren't so tough with good chracters, but you may need to have someone
heal, if Hope dies then just bring him back, if you don't have any items
for this then too bad, he'll just be dead for that battle.
Move on ahead, try to geet a pre-emptive strike for this battle, it will make
it a lot easier, just have Hope heal when neccessary the battle itself isn't
too tough.
Keep on moving forward and battling all the battles you can, along while
trying to get pre-emtive strikes, it will make thigs a lot easier, trust me,
jump over all the debris blocking your way and land down in the big
circular area for a rather interesting scene.
You'll be back with Vanille and Sazh again, save at the save point,
upgrade your crystallium and mess around with Optima's a little bit if
you want, go through the giant tinnel that's straight ahead of you kill the
enemies at the end of the tunnel, they aren't so hard, then continue on,
use the lever, then move through the newly opened area, ambush the
enemies, then move on ahead, grab the treasure and kill the enemies
ahead of you.
Then continue through the tunnel and activate the panel for a small
scene, then proceed through the newly opened pathway, kill the
enemies, then head forward for another scene.
Forced party of Hope, Vanille and Sazh...where have Lightning and
Snow gone off to...oh wait, we know where they both are so never mind
that last statement.
climb up the giant wall thingy and you'l see a bunch of enemies hanging
around at the top, then get the treasure that's there, then head further up
the hill and save, then head further up the hill, kill the enemy that's there,
don;t worry about the door that's there you can't access that, just jump
up to another platform and kill the harpy enemies that are there, then
just continue
forwards for another scene, then continue forward, jump up to rock to
the ramp, run across it.
this next little bit of map looks like a pair of balls, pretty strange to see
that in a "T" rated game =P, head around and jump up the edge, you;ll
see another door, there will be a harpy that pounces on you, you can
avoid it or pre-emptive strike it if you are quick to move around it, then
jump even furhter up the rocks, there will be a little loop around the left
side along with a save point and some treasure, play around with your
crystallium and Optima if you want, head back around to the main path,
head up to see a bridge made of scrap metal, kill the enemies here,
then continue forward, jump over the rubble, kill the enemies, including
the one that jumps out of the door, there'll be a save point just ahead,
then continue up the steps for another scene, where you'll find Lightning
once again.
You'll get party of Lightning, Sazh and Vanille, after upgrading your
crystallium, continue up the other steps, there'll be some more enemies
at the gates there, take more steps and move around to the right, you'll
find some more enemies, there are some more enemies furhter up the
hill, make sure you pre-emtive strike them to make thigs easier for you,
then continue forward, use the panel to let down some steps, then just
save at the save point then kill the enemies further ahead, heal when
necessary, then proceed ahead there will be 3 more enemies ready to
pounce at you, defeat them then proceed forwards, then run ahead,
depending on which way you run you can avoid or pre-emptive strike the
enemy, then re-calibrate yourself with the arrow on your map and move
forwards.
There'll be a save point ahead, remember to keep on upgrading your
crystallium and set your Optima's for the next boss after some more
scenes.
Once again my Japanese is just too poor to understand this bosses
name, so can someone please E-mail me the data?, thanks in advance!
+++~~~..BOSS BATLLE..~~~+++
���������������������������
Boss Name: Unknown.
HP: 44850
No weaknesses available for this boss
Strategy:
���������������������������
Just keep attacking, have someone on attacker while the other two are
Magicking it down from the side, this boss will fire it's cannon at you
once you are through with some of it's HP and send you down a hole,
then you'l continue the battle there, switch someone into Jammer and
someone into healer at this point, he'll attack pretty hard, eventually just
change someone back to Blaster and Attacker/ Enhancer, but always
keep someone on healer if you don't want die, especially with it's
extremely annoying missile attack, that can kill you, eventually it will fall.
Crystarium level up!!
Boss Difficulty: 8.5/10
-----------------------------
Finally you'll be able to access one of those doors that the soldier's use,
it's very long and doesn't have any twists, so just press on until you hit
the mountain again, head up the path and you'll find a save point, just
save here if you want.
You can remodell weapons and accessories right here with all the raw
materials you've been acquiring, then save, continue forwards and you'll
get a scene and
Sazh and Vanille leave for now and you'll be in a battle against some
soldiers, geep someone in healer and someone else in attacker, you
gotta kill em' pretty fast, usually hope will die.
After killing them then you get some more scenes, you'll be controlling
Hope and Lightning for now, position yourself with the arrow on the map
and continue to move forwards, save at the save point, then continue on
ahead, kill the enemies further on, then move on forward, there are a
LOT of enemies in this area, go to the little side branch on the left for
some treasure and some enemies, then head back to the main path,
jump down from there for some more enemies, continue on forward, go
into the loop on the right, jump up some rocks and grab the treasure,
head left to pre-emtive strike the enemy.
There's a save point ahead, go into the cone shaped area for a small
scene and a fight with some PSICOM dudes, if someones in attacker
role and someone else in healer role, you shouls have no trouble, cool!,
you'll be in a giant mech thingy, this is the one that you killed earlier, just
blast the soldiers blocking your path to kingdom come, then proceed
through the bridge and do the same for the other soliders, then just run
through the barrier, kill some more soldiers and continue down the
bridge again for another scene, well there goes your warmech XP.
Position yourself in the location of the arrow, grab the two treasures that
are there, then just continue, throught the road, grab the treasure in the
tunnel and then just head out and save, from the save point there are 3
enemies, waiting for you, silently ambush them and kill them, then just
move on, you'kk eventually find a little loop, just take it and you'll find a
robot, kill it and get the treasure then jump back down and proceed back
to the main path, take another loop, grab the treasure and jump and kill
the soldiers in the bottom, then just continue through, kill the robot that's
there and proveed through the tunnel to ambush the soldiers, further
down you'll find a save point just jump up the rocks, then save, continue
along the road for a scene and get ready for a friggin' tough fight.
+++~~~..BOSS BATLLE..~~~+++
���������������������������
Boss Name: Odin
HP: Unknown.
No weaknesses available for this boss
Strategy:
���������������������������
Have Healer in a lot of the, remember to watch the countdown over
Lightning's head, have Lightning Blaster and Hope Healer, then just
attack him with magic, or have Lightning on attacker, it's much more
risky but it really sppeds it up, once you arrack him a bit wait and let his
drive Gauge go up, the countdown was just finishing when I beat him.
ATB Level up!!
Boss Difficulty: 9/10
-----------------------------
After killing Odin, you can move back to the previous save point and
save, then continue forwards around the bridge, then you'll get a scene
There'll be an awesome little tutorial on how to use Summons, Odin will
replace Hope, but he's much awesomer than him, but also has a super
cool drive mode where Ligthning wields 2 Giant Blades to kill the
enemies.
Then you'll be back in control of Sazh and Vanille after the scene, you
can also save your game, move fowards towards the save point, you
can save, shop or do whatever you want at it, then from the save point,
then move around and poistion yourself for the main path, you can kill
the enmy there, then head up the bridge, once you hit the mountain
once again then there will be a couple of the same enemy (they look like
bombs from all the previous Final Fantasies) then head down and use
the lever.
Then proceed on to the platform, the walk along the beam and kill the
enemies right there, then you can continue further on and turn right then
right again, then walk on further on through the path, there'll be a save
point if you are going the correct wat, then just proceed further on, it's a
pretty straight path, but there are some enemies there, just kill them and
proceed, it really couldn't be simplerm there'll be some reactor like thing
at the end of the path, with a whole bunch of enemies, make sure you
kill them all.
Mov to the back of the reactor and continue on, remmber that there is a
save point ant the front of the reactor and some panels you have to
press on the sides of the reactors, doing so will give you a scene where
some enemies come out, kill them and continue on at last, there is
some treasure on the right side of the reactor thing.
There'll be some treasure further up the path, there'll be a scene further
on ahead.
You cna save your game if you want, then you'll get another cool scene
with Snow an Fang (FTW!!!)
You'll be in control of Snow, once again, run along the place after
around 6 minutes of Scenes, It's just too easy here, just follow the
arrows to arrive at some sort of bar, just talk to the person there twice,
the direction of the arrows will change then head towards the arrow for
some scenes.
That's all we gotta do here, so yeah, some more scenes wit Lightning
ans Hope making a sorta tactical approach, this is the start off the next
chapter:
You'll get the Bronze Trophy: Instrument of Vengeance
-------------------------
Chapter 5: The Gapra Whitewood [cr4.5]
-------------------------
Ohh, what a nice little place, just make sure to save at the save point
that's there, kill the enemies that are further ahead.
REST OF WALKTHROUGH COMING SOON
