Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given

Yeah, on its own, it's a perfectly respectable piece of music; it just really detracted from the mood for me.

I lived through "Fear and Awe in your eyes, showing you what you can't see" and FFXII.
So in comparison, this is the best soundtrack ever.
Does this sound like a good plan? Or is there a more efficient way?
I posted a CP farming tip I was told not far above your own post.
But man, fuck Chapter 11. This place is so damn hard. I'll have to grind CP for awhile myself before I feel confident in taking down any monsters.
Ooh, speaking of merchandise, I love those cat earrings that Serah wore. I found them on the Square-Enix store site, but they're $90!!! They're chou-kawaii but $90 for sterling silver earrings?
I like you can remember what I said (copypasted even?), but oddly not remember that I said it
late chapter 11 spoilers
Anything else I should add?

I have a bunch of notepads on my desktop with GP and CP farming tips.
But ugh, I need to find that spot soon. These monsters are fucking raping me. Do those monsters respawn easily? Like if I round a corner I can just turn back? And do you have any more precise coordinates for those monsters I should look out for?
I can't say I'm enjoying Chapter 11 so far. This spike in difficulty feels a bit too extreme. It feels like I need about five or six times as much health just to survive in this place. These enemies are hitting me for half my fucking health.
Oh, cool. I have no idea why I missed this, since I read through the first two pages before posting.
And I should use that notepad idea, too.
with a long narrow corridor, inside take the first track away from the quest marker, then you'll bump into those groups, and yes they can be respawned easily, its the 2 groups before the optional miniboss Juggernaut (dont touch this guy for now)
also fuck trying to 5 star Ci'eth missions at this time, later you'll get an item that helps with that (I dont have it yet though) Chapter 11 gets way more fun when you unlock chocobo hunting and when you get stronger.
I found this on Gamespot, Sellable item guide

seems that just copypasting it, fucks it up a bit :s
I'm sure you'll be able to get it off eBay soon enough. The OST's been out since January, so I'd be surprised if there weren't some sellers offering it for a pretty good price already.
It looks good Fig-d. My Weapon list was me copying it out of the strategy guide. Some of the abilities in there are less then clear. There is a Synthesis with a few weapons and other items that causes instant staggers and Lionheart is part of this group. Lionheart + 1 or 2 weapons from that group have the chance to cause Instant Staggers. Note that Ultimate Weapons are not part of any Synthesis group, so that bonus disappears for that weapon once an Ultimate Weapon.
The Guide also states that a Tier 1 Weapon from lvl 1 to max takes approximately 50,000 experience, a Tier 2 from Lvl 1 to max takes approx 450,000 experience. An Ultimate Weapon from Lvl 1 to max takes 1,500,000 experience.
It's very random but those are the approximates for weapons according to the guide.
I've found I'm not liking that spot after all. Those two mobs by themselves are actually quite easy, but to get them to respawn again I have to go through a single mob of three bombs and two robots. The bombs, naturally, go to self destruct mode immediately.
I've heard there's another good spot before you enter that area. You have a King Behemoth and Giant Wolf fighting each other. You can attack them, get an easy stagger on the Behemoth and finish him off, then kill the Wolf. Since they start at half health, it's suppose to be an easy 6,500 CP. There's a save spawn immediately next to them, too.
I wonder if I should use Snow instead of Fang here for now, because he has 1/3 more HP than she does.
That fight isnt that easy though (Behemoth goes stage 2 when you cant finish him off fast, and heals to full), the robots in the cave are faster to kill (I had no troubles with the bombs, but then again, I didnt find the area until I had roamed a bit)
At the moment I'm trying to down an Adamantoise, by using dirty tricks, its not really working so far.
RAV/COM/RAV combo killed the Behemoth super fast, though. You quickly get the stagger meter to 999% and since it starts at half health, it dies quickly. The wolf is piss easy, too. I five starred it and got 6,600 CP.
Yeah its good too, I just preferred the shitload of bomb cores I got from those bombs.
In other news, a dead Adamantoise is worth 40.000 CP
In any event, it's fine. I was actually considering letting other members take turns on each new thread, and I'm still way behind for any of that technical jargon to become relevant for me yet.

I was going to pick up the new one but I got scared. it's too much pressure o_O

There seem to be a lot of CP tricks in Chapter 11. I'm enjoying this one a lot more, though, because I kill them in a single minute and they respawn about ten seconds later.
I want to kill Adamantoise, but the trick requires Vanille to have Death, right? I don't have access to that yet. I'll have to carry on to Chapters 12 and 13 to open that up properly, I suppose (the teleporter back to the Chapter 11 area is in Chapter 13 or both?).
Right now I want to max out my current Crystarium proficiencies, go do the missions until 14, and do the Chocobo Treasure Hunt for the Gil so I can upgrade my weapons. After that I'll continue on, get Death for Vanille, and come back to try that trick.
What I'm currently doing is getting a pre-emptive attack on the King Behemoth at the start of the Archylte Steppe (near the save pont) having Sazh cast Haste on my party of him, Lightning and Fang, staggering the Behemoth, and finally going COM/COM/COM to beat his entire health bar down in one stagger.
Dashui's method sounds even easier.
You can call dibs on the next if you want. I got my fix, so I'm not in a demand to horde future threads.
Kudos to Fig's OP though, nicely done. :^:

Like I posted above this one, it takes about one minute to one minute and 20 seconds to kill the two of them. You'll five star it and get 6,600 CP. Go back up the hill, turn around, and they're back again. It's ridiculous. In only a few minutes I already had about 25,000 CP.
There's a save point RIGHT next to them, too, so it's a great spot.
Doing this 15 times gives you almost 100,000 CP.
Also. The statues in the tower you have to do to proceed further. Can you redo them later to get the 5 stars? I only 3 stared em and wonder if they are doable again for the achievement or if they don't count.

BarFrost doesn't help defend as they still kill me in one hit (should it be upwards of 75%hp when it explodes). Meanwhile other bombs attack me heal the ones that are trying to explode. Oh how it would help to be able to control my character and have them run AWAY from dangerous things.
Blitz and Ruinga - preferable with 2 commando's, if that doesnt cut it, you should upgrade a bit.
Seems that it works like 1 time out of 500 though. (no loot from that 1 time even)

Thanks!
I feel like I need to add some pictures or something though. Right now it feels a little wordy and technical. Too much technical crap, not enough pretties.

A character list with your own personal descriptions would go a long way.

I didn't enjoy this game at all except for the combat until chapter 9 where some of the main characters finally grow some fucking balls, it ceases screwing with your party every 5 seconds and you can decide who is in your party. Beyond chapter 9, bearing in mind that's probably around 12 hours of gameplay getting to that point already - I have really got into the game and begun to really enjoy it.
Fuck the first 8 chapters though.
This is what makes me really sad, because no matter how much I end up enjoying this game, I'll never want to play it again because the first ~15 hours suck so much.
I have a save right at the start of chapter 10.
Better foresight would have seen me do it at chapter 9, but sadly I didn't think that far ahead.
This isn't a game I will ever replay.
