Thanks so much for the information . I will just get hints from gamefaqs instead of buying the normal edition guide book.

can we do side mission after story line mission is finish

just use deceptisol will do. getting a gold watch will v difficult at low level, mission 64 boss is pain in the ass.in fact most difficult so far.

mission 64 toss equip all lvl 1 weapon (except marlboro wand) and lvl 1 accesories, sprint shoes,aurora scarf,and some low level protection %(royal armlet,black belt) ...FOR VANiLLE ADD shrouding talisman to extend poison buff duration by 30%. then play turtle,3med,3sab(poison).. use renew in between if dont have time to 3med in crit....not hard at all...me 13 minute still gold.

True, read about this tactic. Issue is you have to finish some of the earlier missions first before reaching the final one. I don't like to re-do missions again so I'd go with the deceptisol or use pre-emptive strike strategy. Right now have already completed the first 30 missions with 5 stars with just this strategy. Also trying not to use Vanille's Death strategy just to get a quick clean (except for my first fight with the Zinitra as I don't want to trudge too far from Vallis Media again) .

ok...i just finished mission 7 with just a 4 star (damn) because i want to buy Perfect Conductor and Superconductor as i was told it will unlock after i finished mission 7. now i have just defeated that flying monster and guess what... no Perfect Conductor and Superconductor! now how do i get those? im still at chapter 11 and haven't advance out as i am doing mission 1-7

you are wasting time.... just do 1 & 2 then move on...
else if you intend to powerlevel against 5 robot before juggernaut in the mines, (after defeat robot, march to juggernaut, pause to retry, rinse the spawned 5 robot..repeat) just get mission reward the collector catalog reward from raskshasha in vallis media..then move along to mine.. u can buy as many conductor and compactor once farming in chapter 13.

It only grant you to access R&D Repot that sell Perfect Conductor and Superconductor.
Go farm your ingot 1st.

the 5 robot u mean is by the name of Hoplite? does it give good cp? i have met the jugga once and i got pawned before i could cast anything! what hp recommendation would you think i should farm until i can take on jugga? and i still dont undertand how do you pause and retry to kill the 5 robots again. i think when you press pause u only can press select and quit back to the menu right? never seen a retry button before though

what is ingot?

Spoils dropped from Admantoise, that can be sold for 150k gil.

platinum ingot rare drop & u can sell if for 150k gils

Just finished mission 64 with total around 7-8 tries on Sunday. Something to share here, the strategy below try 1 time success to get 5 stars after some refinement from few tries on different paradigm before:

My 3 chars all fully leveled, equipped with ultimate weapons, party members: Fang/Lightning/Hope

Equipped Fang and Lightning with Genji Glove, useful for COM/COM/RAV paradigm after staggered. Also equipped with Gold Watch if want to hit 5 stars.

Use Aegisol and Fortisol before start the batter.

Paradigm:
1. SEN/SEN/SEN - to minimize the damage of Whicked Whirl
2. SAB/SAB/SAB - prepared to debuff it especially after he cured and buffed itself.
3. SEN/SYN/SYN - Fang SYN ability a bit different with Hope and Lightning, better use her as SEN or maybe SAB.
4. RAV/RAV/RAV - to boost the chain fastest
5. COM/COM/RAV - to hit hard it when staggered
6. MED/MED/MED - To heal your party as fast as possible when necessarily

At the beginning, it has a routine of attack, if you found out it's pattern, then is very easy to kill it.

Start out with all the shrouds, and then go in with SAB/SAB/SAB, debuff it for 1 time, then quickly change to RAV/RAV/RAV to try to stagger it, if you lucky, maybe able to stagger it and kill a number of HP, because it will go into Impenetrable Aura very fast. Then cure your party to full HP, change to SAB/SAB/SAB, and prepare Fang with DEPROTECT/DESHELL (3 ATB), and SLOW (3 ATB), leave the DISPEL job to Hope and Lightning. Give another fast round of debuffed, probably if you saw Deprotect and Deshell and Slow ON, change to RAV/RAV/RAV again, once staggered go for COM/COM/RAV until it Impenetrable Aura, this might continue for around 3-4 rounds before it gone mad with more fierce and fast attack.

Then when it didn't go to Impenetrable Aura too often and attacked longer (with Wicked Whirl and Wind Shear) and debuffing you, then you might keep close to your buff and HP, use MED/MED/MED and SEN/SYN/SYN when necessarily. Don't let your buff gone to 0, at least Shell, Protect and Haste has to be ON.

Then all we have to do is race to death.

Added on June 15, 2010, 10:00 amI think is better hunt for the 6 bomb, more CP and easy to stagger and kill.
Don't worry about CP at the moment, you will have a lot of high CP mob to kill later.

Once you enter a battle, you can pause and click on RETRY, will not quit to the menu, unless you are not in a battle.

congrats,
mission 64 the trick is just casting slow (is the main success).
if it dont get the slow curse....it will diff to kill.
once i found out this, the poison is not that important.
no need sen,syn,syn..normally when Imp. Aura u have enough time to cure & buff yourself (just haste, bravery,faith enough already).
then after that quickly debuff (fang only focus on slow, as light/vanielle dont have this ability, let them do the deprotect,deshell,imperil).
then start rav,rav,rav, once stagger...all com,com,com.
for me 3x stagger i beaten the boss.

Definitely. Slow is the important key. Well, if you help to cast DEPROTECT or DESHELL first, then lightning and Hope will have chance to cast POISON or IMPERIL as well, make it much more easy to kill.

I also surprise with this strategy, one time can get 5 stars liao. Forgot the time, but I remember I got the Point was around 15K, which mean still got some buffer left.

Finally!!! i reach chapter 11... seems like im a slowpoke compare to sifus here

I prefer Fang & Vanille buff (-ra) for this mission.
A normal buff only has longer duration but low in term of power.
Ultimately we need that power and the longer duration is a bit useless because Vercigetorix usually debuff your buff.

I think I have another paradigm just to cast enfire and debuff, coz Fang & Vanille doesn't have that.

about hunter trophy,
i have some questions hope sifus can enlighten me.
1. Do i need have all accessories include each upgrade version
(for eg: iron bangle to Wurtzite Bangle, total 10version )
2. Do i need all weapons or just each character 3tier weapon is adequate

owh worng word..its retry before juggernaut hit u..it will spawn back hoplite and bombs.

i have problems hitting those bombs before they explode! what is the best and fasted to kill them before they regain some health back? all on rav?

Answer both questions:

You just need to have the every non upgraded/upgraded accessory/weapon one time in your inventory, consider you got it. No need to collect all and put in your inventory.

Added on June 15, 2010, 2:08 pmCOM/RAV/RAV more than enough.
Blitz them with COM, normally they will get closer to each other when they attempt to attack your member.
