Is it easy to screw up your characters?

Seeing that this game has some seriously hard endgame bosses and sphere grid where you may do things differently even when maxing it out, is it really easy to make your characters unable to plat the game?

 

I guess you'll always be able to grind more S-lv. to get back to where you've left empty sphere places and so but if you put wrong spheres in those emtpy places too many times, are you screwed?

 

I haven't had too much trouble in any FF game's end game or hidden bosses, is this different?

In the end you have to compelte all the Sphere, this mean in the End all Chaacter have all the Same Stats, it's impossible what you're saiyng.

 

To me even yuna & Lulu now Make 99999 Damage with a normal Attack.

So the Secret Boss don't get influenced by this.

 

The Only really Hard boss is Penace, more long then Hard if you're prepared in the end, all the othersonce you're at the Max are easy.

The only character you can screw up is Kimahri, but that will only be early in the game, he'll eventually pan out properly coming into end game. It's impossible to screw up any other characters since they're literally locked out of other skills until later in the game anyway.

Kinahri is essentially a Blue Mage, so he can follow any character's path, if you don't realise this early on, and you do what I did, you'll wind up with some weird combination of mage/tank/dmg...

 

Have an idea of where you want Kimahri to go, this is usually in the form of "Follow x character", and go there. You'll be fine.

 

If you did what I did on PS2 and jump straight to the Expert SG without knowing what you're doing, you wind up with a Kimahri with low strength, low magic, high accuracy, and who knows how only two of the base elemental magic set, a single null-x ability and he continues to inexplicably follow Rikku's path, gaining no usable techniques for the rest of the game :p

Thanks, good to know!

 

How about blitzball? I'm already little addicted to it and stuck at the first savepoint where I've been able to play it. While I'm messing around, winning maybe half of the games and getting a grasp of it, does it become progressively and permanently harder or can I always accomlish whatever I need trophywise?

Hmm, not sure really. It really depends on which Grid you want to use in the beginning. If you choose the Expert Grid, you have one of the best moves in the game for Tidus, Haste, right off the bat if you choose to go upwards through his Sphere Grid. However, if you choose the standard grid, you will have to wait awhile and grind to get Haste. Either way, the only real character to "screw up" in kimahri which is useless if you ask me.

 

For those empty nodes, you will have more than enough if you have 1) Warp sphere, or 2) do the Don Tonberry AP exploit. However, if you are worried about those and have the ability to add nodes [strength Nodes, etc] just give them to your main characters you use in fights. However, just like every Final Fantasy game it is wise to grind levels to power up your party members.

 

You would be surprised, as Yuna's Magic attribute can make Lulu's magic attribute look like trash in comparison when you level her up in Lulu's tree. Yuna has the highest base magic and magic defense in the game, which if she becomes a hybrid(black mage/white mage) she can devastate on the field.

 

Another would have to be Tidus(ol'chap), he can move into Auron's tree and have speed AND power! If you move Tidus into Wakka's, Tidus's accuracy will improve and will be able to hit flying enemies, no problem! Plus, he would get some HP bonuses, which will improve Tidus's survivability in future battles.

 

I could go on and on, but that's for another day. Plus, that is not what you asked. :p

Blitz-ball is nothing too serious, but it is actually a lot of fun once you know what you're doing. You can get the Reels for the trophy then quit, or you can keep playing and get Wakka's sigils(Jupiter, if I am not mistaken?) and power up World Champion, his celestial weapon.

Oce You'll get on the Airship just Take in your Team Wakka in Attack And Brother for as Midfielder; already with this Two Plus Tidus you're team will be amazing; Plus Brother is the Absolute Player in FFX it's Simply amazing, to me it Defense, recover ball and score all alone!

Take Shuu as GoalKeeper, is a Girl wearing a red Dress, i don't remember where she is; it's a great Goalkeeper, the only Keeper Stronger then she is the albhed one but is almost impossible to find him free.

While for the Defense, Just wait to find 2 Players from other teams free (Not kilika obviously) and take them ;)

 

I'm at 45 with my Character on Blitzball now i win 8/9-0 every Match and score since the Middle of the Field XD

 

So nothing easy once you take in your team the right People ;)

You can't possibly screw up the characters if you just follow their paths. By the end of the game, every character will be completely identical except for the way they look and their Overdrives.

 

you can't screw up, you'll level proportionally to the bosses so one or two wuick farms will get your stats up to defeat the boss if you are stuck. Also with OD of summons and characters you can dominate the fights.

 

It is possible to completely screw over Kimahri, but as mentioned by others, toward the end game (post-airship) it won't matter.

There is someone who use him? XD

 

Nah Seriously Talking i Used him until the Gagazet battle, after only in few battles, Yuna/Wakka, Rikku; Tidus Forever :dance:

 

That particular battle is the only battle I would train him for, besides that, he was never used until I had to earn the trophy for learning all the moves.

Best use for Kimahri IMO is train him as a thief early before Rikku enters the party. You can acquire steal and use for him just after Luca..

 

With the right path you can also teach him abilities before the specialists of those abilities get them, and using Return, Friend and Teleport spheres you can then teach them to the specialists and return them to their natural path.. Just off the top of my head, Curaga and either Full or Auto-Life, not to mention Ultima is on his grid, so it's an easy way to teach it to Lulu and Yuna..

Kimahri is great in fights - if you send him on Wakka's path. Wakka's problem is he has great abilities, but low MP. This is what Kimahri & his Lancet were born for. Accuracy, power, infinite status attacks. Decent HP too. Yes, sending him on Rikku's path is cool for Steal, but you can just use a Special Sphere for that, no need to waste fighting potential.

BB is one of those love it or hate it things, there's plenty of 'challenge' in it if you consider RNG which is always against you to be up your alley. Personally I revile it just like so many other garbage minigames. Most just aren't fun to me but BB takes it to the next level when your attackers do half of their AT every single scuffle and you see everyone else not even get a hand on the ball when passing.

 

Barest minimum you can do it to get everything you need is like 26 games using reset data to reshuffle the prizes.

Damn, BB was one of the things I loved about 10. I played it an ungodly amount of hours even after getting Waka's sigil. Different strokes I guess :)
