Here’s the rules:

1. You post a question asking something about a final fantasy game (depending which forum you are in)
2. the next person replies with what they think is the answer and another question
3. remember to tell the last poster if they got it right or not

First one:
Q. What does Garnet do to her hair later on in the game

Cuts it..

Whats garnets real name.

Who was the daughter that died before queen brahne replaced her with the horned orphan from another continent.

05-21-2004, 03:12 PM
um I don’t get the question but erm
Garnet for both I think ‘cos doesn’t tell garnet’s real name

Why was Zidanes search for his family in vain


Shenny
05-22-2004, 03:35 AM
Actually Garnet’s real name is Sarah..
Then it’s the real Princess Garnet ^_^ hehe

Well, I think it’s ‘coz, his family didn’t live in Gaia

Name Eiko’s 4 Eidolon’s *smirks* too easy! And if it’s hard, NO CHEATING!!! ๐Ÿ˜€ hehe

Um… fenrir, carbuncle, phoenix, and Madeen. (WHy is a rabbit named pimple?)

As for the promise doesn’t Zidana promise dagger that he’ll protect her? If not it is propably something to do with her being princess.

Who is the regent who wrote on the chocograph peices?

Be nice. Some people don’t spend hours trying to work this out… It’s very easy to miss out unless you’ve read a forum or really tried for full completion.

I remember Kuja’s master plan being the destruction of all life because if he couldn’t survive, then why should anyone else live on?

Regardless if I’m right or not, someone else can ask a question.

If its any help

If anyone wants to know how to find out her real name PM me


Hogan
05-31-2004, 11:40 AM
wasn’t Kujas plan to merge the two worlds together

Q: Who were all of Zidane’s cohorts and partners in crime from the begining of the game


Alpott
05-31-2004, 11:46 AM
Beggining of the game?

As in the very beggining?

Okay..

Twas..

Blank, Cinna, Baku, Marcus

Or if you do a special thing, (Pm if if you want to know) Ruby will appear..

Heres a question.

What date did the war of Alexandria and Lindblum end..


nildrohain454
05-31-2004, 12:44 PM
I don’t think it gives an exact date, but I believe the war ended 20 years ago.

What does Steiner use to help smuggle Garnet past the gate?

Please don’t attach images that have nothing to do with the post. – Bahamut ZERO

A: He puts her in some sort of bag with pickless if I’m correct.

Q: Where can you find the Hidden Boss "Ozma"


Bloodshy Testament
05-31-2004, 04:57 PM
I think the boss Ozama is mpost commenly known as, ‘The book boss’. You can find it in the Alexandria Library twice only in the game, the one I fought it in was where your suposed to be going to the top of the castle with Alexander and Garnet and Eiko….

Or maybe your talking of the other one?

I forgot. But Maybe it’s the boss in the Chocobo Air Garden. I think. I’m not sure. It’s gotta be one of them!!

Here’s my question.
Where can you find the moogle suit?

^.^ Good luck!!


Alpott
06-01-2004, 05:18 AM
Have you even played final fantasy ix!?

Book boss?

I think your reffering to Tantarian…

Ozma is the on in chocobo air garden…

To answer your question, the moogle suit is found in the industrial district of lindblum, the studio in front of the station is where its held, inside a half opened drawer..

Mn, you seem to be the meanie of this forum. I seem to recall another instance in which you were chided for being rude and/or insesitive to other peoples feelings. To answer your question, yes, I have plyaed Final Fasntay Nine, thanks, many times, but it was a while ago, and I’m sorry if my memory fails me once and a while. Thank you for your concern on my ability to play a game and retain information correctly. And you didn’t ask a question, so I cannot answer one. If anyone else would like to post a question for me, that would be aprrecitaed.


Alpott
06-02-2004, 04:38 AM
Sorry dude, its just like, i know alot about it and stuff..so i kinda get psyco about it…

Sorry for all the offences where taken..

How many dead pepper locations are there?

Kupo Mog
06-07-2004, 09:12 AM
Ok, Dead Pepper locations, well there’s Mognet Central, Chocobo Air Garden, plus the 8 other locations around the world. So that would be 10.

Q: Where can the Tiger Racket be found?

Kupo!!!


The Sage
06-07-2004, 01:15 PM
^^ Correct ^^

* He assumes you mean the item not the card *

A: Foaming water beneath Quan’s dwelling.

Q: What is the name of the traveling moogle (might be a bit easy)


Kupo Mog
06-07-2004, 02:34 PM
Yeah I should have made that clear….

STILTSKIN!!! The coolest of all the Moogles.

Q: Ok, this one is simple-pimple, what other Final Fantasy has Stiltskin been in?

Kupo!!!


Aerisfreak91
06-10-2004, 12:55 PM
A: Ummmm Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles??? He was in there!

Q: This one’s easy, where did Vivi first Go into Trance?


Kupo Mog
06-10-2004, 12:58 PM
Well that actually depends on the person playing, he first went into Trance in the Evil Forest for me, but he is first forced into a Trance on the Mist Ship to Lindblum when Black Waltz 3 does some destruction.

Q: What is Zidane’s nickname for Freya?

Kupo!!!


Aerisfreak91
06-10-2004, 01:00 PM

The Sage
06-15-2004, 10:55 AM

The Sage
06-20-2004, 05:11 PM

I don’t have a clue…..20?

Alpott
06-21-2004, 10:58 AM

Q: Which card can you give to a man in Daguerreo to allow you to change eveyone’s names?


FallenSilence

Namingway Card.

Where can you find the Tower weapon for Zidane, and what is its attack power?


Alpott
06-24-2004, 03:11 PM
The sage, heres the thing…

I didnt need you to copy and paste that of a website guide…

You could have just counted them all and easily said the number, less space taken up aswell..

Tower weapon is found in memoria and i dont care about the stats..


The Sage
06-24-2004, 11:47 PM
Omg you found me out…

And lighten up it’s not going to kill you.

Hmm… no question…

btw Attack Power = 100, Add St = Sleep, Ability = Flee (40A)

Now…

Q: What is the rare item used to make the machine in Mognet central work… and who used up the rare item and why did they use it?

Superslick. Artimeticon(or however its spelt), he used it beacuas e it makes his fur soft and smooth or something


The Sage
06-26-2004, 08:16 AM
ffs write a question when you answer

Q: (an easy one) in which country is Chocobos forest?


Enkidoh
06-26-2004, 12:47 PM
That’s real easy. The Lindblum Regency of course (on the King Ed Plains to be precise), on the Mist Continent.

P.S. The Sage, you forgot a couple of moogles by the way: Artimiecion the Mognet postman and Stiltzkin the moogle traveller, so that makes 42; well 43 if you count Mog as well, but then she’s not really a moogle anyway…

Plus, if my memory serves me correctly there are a couple of other younger moogles also at Mognet Central who aren’t actually named (they’re sorting the mail), so I guess they don’t count.

Anyway, here’s mine:

How many Hilda Garde airships have been constructed by the game’s end?


Toastie!
06-26-2004, 10:38 PM
Um isnt it something lke 3?

Enkidoh
06-27-2004, 12:58 PM
Actually, nope. That’s incorrect.

There are three Hilda Gardes you can ride in the game, but, it’s not the correct answer. Anyone else like to guess?

(Hint: take note of the dialogue during the ending scenes…)


The Sage

Picky bastard

Hmm… 4

If there’s 3 ridible in the game, one he made as an oglop and one made after he was turned back + the one Hilda stole at the start that you ride with Zorn and Thorn I’m going for 4, having accidently recently overwritten my game recently ๐Ÿ™ I’m going to guess 4 because he might have made a steam one in the end sequence.


Enkidoh
06-28-2004, 01:08 PM
Correct! Yep, you’re right on the money The Sage.

SPOILER ALERT

Besides the three you can ride in the game, it’s mentioned in the scene where Eiko is on the Lindblum Castle elevator with Cid and Hilda in the ending scene, that Cid’s ‘new’ Hilda Garde airship is the fastest airship he’s built. Of course he may have been refering to the Hilda Garde 3, but it’s more likely it was a new airship instead, particulary as far as the dialogue is concerned:

Eiko: "Hurry Hurry! We’ve got to get there before the play begins!"

Cid: "Ha ha! There is no need to worry. The theatre ship is no match for my new airship. My new Hilda Garde is the fastest airship ever!!"

Eiko: "Do I have to remind you? You said the same thing about the theatre ship!!"

So, there have been four Hilda Garde airships built by the end of the game…

Anyway, go ahead and post the next question…


Toastie!
06-29-2004, 04:10 AM
Um i not to sure if this is going to be easy or hard.

But where is there a reference to Priscilla from FFVII?
Its just someone called Priscilla in one of the towns.


The Sage
06-29-2004, 08:40 AM
Lindblum, probably.

Anyway, moving on even though it ‘s probably wrong I’ll be corrected later I’m sure…

Q: What are the THREE yes that’s THREE places you can get a pumice peice


Ac-ace0
06-29-2004, 09:41 AM
-you get one from sythin a hammer with the pumice(waste of time)

-one from defeating ozma

-and one from a chocograph chest located on outer island (i think)

What must you achive to obtain the excalibur2?


The Sage
06-29-2004, 10:51 AM
Quite correct.

A: You have to get to the part in Memoria that has the memories of Alexandria being destroyed and look around to find it before the 6th hour. To do this you have to skip all atbs that arn’t manditory and open the cover when the fmvs are playing to avoid them

Q: How are each charater’s stories sumed up by Squaresoft?


Enkidoh
06-29-2004, 01:06 PM
Which version? The original Japanese (Japlish) or the English translation? The reason I ask is the English translation is slightly different to the Japanese originals, so anyway, I’ll post both:

English translation:

Zidane: ‘You don’t need a reason to help people."

Vivi: "How do you prove that you exist? Maybe we don’t exist…"

Steiner: "Having sworn fealty, must I spend my life in servitude?’

Garnet: "Someday I will be queen, but I’ll always be myself."

Freya: "To be forgotten is worse than death."

Amarant: "The only dependable thing about the future is uncertainty."

Eiko: "I don’t wanna be alone anymore…"

Quina: "I do what I want! You have problem?"

As can be seen below, some of the original Japanese versions of these phrases are a little different….:

Original Japanese versions:

Zidane: "Is there any reason to help other people?"

Vivi: "If I can’t prove that I am alive, is it the same as death?"

Steiner:"Let me know if devoting my life to others is good for myself? What does a man live for?"

Garnet: "I want to know myself not as a ‘Princess’ but as a person, but…"

Freya: "To keep my mind on him is so hard, but to be dismissed from his memory has more pain."

Amarant: "What do I want to do? What can I do? Should I find the answers now?"

Eiko: "Don’t think I’ll be all right. My heart would be occuppied with deep loneliness when I’m alone."

Quina: "Is there any problem to do anything I like? I like to be scold sometimes…"

Pardon? I’m still not quite sure what to make of that last bit of Quina’s line, as it makes it sound like he/she is a little bit sado-masochisic! lol Annnyyway, here’s my next one:

Where are the two places in the world where you can be told your current ‘Treasure Hunter Rank’?


The Sage
06-29-2004, 01:28 PM
Omg… what can I say accept well done. Don’t say you can remember them please. Also some of those Japanese ones are better than the english

Damn I know the one
A: It’s the four armed guy in Dagulero (sp?) and is the other one in Treno I’m not sure though about Treno

Q: Hmm… How many times do you fight Kuja, Steiner and Beatrix in the game?


Ac-ace0
06-29-2004, 02:49 PM
im not 100% but
kuja 2

steiner 2

and beatrix3?

Q: wot is the name of the 4 armed man?

im not 100% but
kuja 2

steiner 2

and beatrix3?

Q: wot is the name of the 4 armed man?


Enkidoh
06-30-2004, 01:41 PM
Firstly, to answer my question, The Sage basically got it: to find out your current Treasure Hunter Rank, you can speak with the Four-armed Bandit near the Snythisist in Dageurreo (in disc 3 and 4), and the woman wearing an orange dress on the stairwell in the Inn at Treno.

Secondly, Ac-ace0 you actually fight Steiner 3 times, all on the Prima Vista.

The first battle is with Zidane, Blank and Cinna (and I think Marcus as well…), under the stage when Blank is in disguise as a Pluto Knight – the battle ends when Steiner destroys Blank’s costume, releaseing the package of oglops he had hidden in a pocket!

The second and third times are up on stage, with Zidane, Marcus, Garnet and Vivi, and the two battles are essentially extentions of each other, although the third battle does have the added problem of a giant Bomb lurking behind Steiner, which swells up with every round. The battle ends when Steiner finally turns around to see what Garnet and the others were desperately trying to get him to notice!

As for the identity of the ‘four-armed bandit’, well, it’s a spoiler, as you can do the quest to raise your treasure hunting rank to ‘S’ by getting enough treasure (the Chocobo Hot-and-Cold game alone should help raise it), although it’s obvious if you think about it, so, if you don’t want to know, do not look below! You have been warned…

SPOILER ALERT

The identity of the four-armed bandit is none other than Gilgamesh; yet another reference in FFIX to the previous FF games (although remember this isn’t the same dimension-hopping rogue from FFV and VIII, and XI as well, but rather just a four-armed NPC with the same name….).

Anyway, here’s my next question (quite tricky):

Which two of Eiko’s Eidolons have alternate attacks, what attacks are they, and what are the ‘add-ons’ which give these attacks?


The Sage
06-30-2004, 06:57 PM
Thanks for correcting him it means I don’t have to bother ๐Ÿ™‚

Carbuncle:
None : Ruby Light, Casts Reflect on entire party
Emerald : Emerald Light, Casts Haste on entire party
Moonstone : Pearl Light, Casts Shell on entire party
Diamond: Diamond Light, Casts Vanish on entire party

Fenir:
None : Terestrial Rage, Causes Earth damage to all enemies
Madian’s Prayer : Millennial Decay, Causes Wind damage to all enemies

Q: What does Zidane promise to Garnet (word for word if you can) and when does she let him out of his promise?


Enkidoh
07-01-2004, 02:07 PM
Yep, that’s correct.

As for your question, Zidane promised to kidnap her. He mentions it when they introduce each other for the first time in the cargo hold of the Prima Vista:

Garnet: "I… have a favour I wish to ask of you… I wish to be kidnapped! Right away! Please?"

Zidane: "Alright Princess, I promise I shall hearby do my best to kidnap you!’

Really, the ‘kidnapping’ is just a metaphor for firstly being under protection while she travels to Lindblum to speak with Cid about Brahne’s increasingly irrational behaviour, but eventually she uses it as an excuse to stay with Zidane and his growing little band, so she can get away from the castle and the responsibilites of royalty to explore the wider world.
SPOILER ALERT

The agreement stays pretty much in affect for the entire game, until Zidane actually ‘releases’ himself from the agreement at the end, as a way of preventing Garnet from going with him down into the bowels of the Iifa Tree to rescue Kuja, and almost certain death:

Zidane: "Garn.. I mean, Your Highness. The abduction is over. I cannot take you any further. I’m sorry for being so selfish."

Garnet: "Oh no, you weren’t selfish. You’ve done so much for us Zidane. If it wasn’t for you I probably would have just lived a meaningless life. With you I was able to see so much of the world and meet so many people. We faced many hardships too but,… I think I finally understand what’s important. I’ll never forget our trip together. Thank you Zidane. ………. ….. ………….. Promise me one thing. Please come back."

Question: What are the locations of the two ‘healing pools’ in the game (areas where you simply have Zidane inspect and it will completely restore your HP and MP)?


The Sage

Omg I don’t know the quotes, so I’m going to assume that you both started a new game and finished one of your old ones… :erm:

And there are many HP/MP refill sites.

Off the top of my head:
In the Evil Forest near to Monty.
In Quan’s Dwelling after you go down the rope
The Healing Shore (you have to be on a chocobo)
In South Gate, you see an ATB with Cinna drinking from a spring
I think that’s it.

Q: What are the potions that Tot tries to use on Cid, where do you get them, what ratio are they in and what happens when he drinks them?

Okay, if no one else is going to ask a question, then I’ll go ahead and post one (The Sage got my earlier question right by the way):

Q: Is it possible for Garnet to use her Eidolons before she gets Ramuh at the Pinnacle Rocks in disc 2?


Ac-ace0
07-03-2004, 08:24 AM
no i do not beliave it is possible, because ramah tells her that shes a summoner and before this it wouldnt be possible unless you’v found a way?

Toastie!
07-03-2004, 08:33 PM
wel i think it may just be possible as long as you have enough MP to use them. But then again i coul be wrong because i never have been bothered to test this.

….or maybe she can’t because i think i can remember reading her say about that she was too afraid to use them or something like that.


Enkidoh
07-03-2004, 08:54 PM
Actually, yes, she can indeed use them, regardless of what Ramuh tells her. As far as the game engine is concerned, the only thing preventing her from using them in disc 1 is her level and MP (after all, why do you think they’re in her spell inventory at the start of the game?), so as long as her level and MP are high enough, she indeed can summon her Eidolons before getting Ramuh. However, you’d have to spend quite a bit of time raising her up to a level where her MP allows it.

Naturally, at the start the only Eidolons she has are Shiva, Ifirit, Atomos, Odin and Bahamut. And naturally she will still lose them in disc 2 when Brahne extracts them from her, meaning it’s rather pointless.

Anyway, 1_W1nged_Angel was correct, so feel free to post a question.

Now I have reached a level at which Garnet can use Shiva, Ifrit and Odin not Bhahamut though! And it’s weird because some times you can go into a battle and with the correct ammount of MP but you can’t summon and only after she goes into Trance that it works. I think it’s all due to her level ups, when she levels up she can’t use the Edions until she Trances again, but then that’s just me I don’t know it for sure.

And 1_W1nger_Angel do you mean Excalabur 2?

1_W1nged_Angel was correct. He gives you a Protect Ring, but I’ve seen help guides refer to it as a ‘Memory Ring’ for some reason (perhaps confusing Eiko’s key item of the same name..).

As for The Sage’s question, giving the friendly Yan a Diamond rewards you with 50 AP, a Rossetta Ring, and the ability to attack Ozma with physical attacks and Shadow elemental spells.

Q: in what continent do you find "dragon’s hair"?

Enkidoh
07-11-2004, 03:02 AM
I think it may be gained from having a dark blue or gold chocobo dive down by using a dead pepper into the bubbles in the ocean near the northern coast of the Outer Continent (the area near Mognet Central), but it was so long ago I gained that weapon I can’t remember correctly…

So, I’ll just settle for the Outer Continent (even if it is most likely wrong…).

Enkidoh
07-15-2004, 02:49 PM
Ereptor Eximius: That old man was Locke if my memory serves me correctly, yet another reference from a past FF to appear in FFIX.

I can’t quite recall what his previous occupation was in FFIX though – he only mentions about how efficent the air cabs are and how long it used to take to walk between the various districts of the city before the air cab system started operating. Of course in FFVI Locke was a ‘treasure hunter’… ๐Ÿ˜‰

heavenscloud01: It was Melodies of Life of course. Beautiful song too by the way….

Q: Which airship in FFIX had a previous appearence in another FF, and which previous FF game did it appear in?


Ereptor Eximius
07-15-2004, 03:36 PM

The Sage
07-16-2004, 09:45 PM
Having not played pre-FF7 games I need to guess

It can’t be the Hilda Garde ships. It’s probably not the Invincible. Maybe the Theatre ship. But I’m going for the cargo ship.

This one might have been asked before…

Which is the most powerful weapon in the game?


Axelredmage
07-17-2004, 11:13 AM
The best weapon is the ultima weapon. Hands down.
Q. Where can you find a cameo of FF3/6 and what is it?

The Sage
07-17-2004, 11:55 AM
It’s our favourite four armed treasure hunter Gilgamesh (sp?). I don’t know if he was in FF3 though.
That or it’s our favourite Moogle Stilskin (sp?)

Why does Zidane FIRST leave Tantilous (sp?)


Axelredmage
07-17-2004, 03:15 PM
Actually you’re wrong, that’s not the cameo. Try again!

Enkidoh
07-17-2004, 03:25 PM
Firstly, in regards to my question, your second guess was correct The Sage. It was indeed the Invincible, which was the final airship you gained from Forbidden Land Eureka in FFIII on the Famicom (although it’s design is nothing like how it later appeared in FFFIX, it’s still increidibly powerful and even helps you in battle by firing cannons at the start of each of battle!).

But as FFIII is a game which never saw the light of day outside Japan it’s not that well known.

To answer your first question then The Sage, as far as attack power is concerned, then the most powerful weapon in the game is NOT the Ultima Weapon. It’s actually Steiner’s Excalibur II, a secret weapon which is gained by getting to the gateway to Crystal World in Disc 4 within 12 and half hours of starting the game; a very hard feat to accomplish. The Ultima Weapon has an attack stat of 100, where as the Excalibur II has an attack rate of 108. The difference is obvious.

As for your second question, I can’t quite remember the reason Zidane gave, but I think it had something to do with trying to find his birthplace, which he never found on Gaia of course, but knowing my luck, it’s most likely wrong…

Thirdly, Gilgamesh didn’t appear in FFVI The Sage. Although Locke appears as an old man outside the Business District air cab station in Lindblum (as has already been mentioned), there are a couple of other references to FFVI as well.

In the immediate aftermath of Alexandria’s attack on Lindblum on disc 2, an Alexandrian soldier in the Theatre District mentions that Queen Brahne wants to build an Opera House there (possibly hinting at the Opera House in FFVI), but Axelredmage is most likely however refering to Gogo the Mime (who also appeared in FFV).

In FFIX Gogo is refered to as a famous toymaker who made the various action figures found throughout Gaia in FFIX. The Magical Fingertip item required to gain Excalibur actually has a reference to Gogo, and the old man at Daguerreo whom you give the Magical Fingertip to explains quite a bit about Gogo’s life.

So, I’ll say Gogo….

Q: What is the earliest time and place where you can get the Holy Lance?


Axelredmage
07-17-2004, 05:01 PM
Very good…But you’re wrong. No one gets this…It’s a weird cameo too…I’ll tell you…In the black mage village it’s possible to get FF3 music to play. That’s the cameo…

Enkidoh
07-18-2004, 04:37 AM
True, but FFIII and FFVI are two different games. I assumed when you put 3/6 I assumed you were meaning FFVI only, and not the ‘proper’ FFIII on the Famciom/NES, seeing as how FFVI was known as ‘FFIII’ on the SNES in the US.

Incidentally, the song on the gramaphone was already mentioned in a previous post, and it’s not the only FFIII refrence in FFIX. The two items needed to get the music to play (Unne’s Mirror and Doga’s Artifact) are of course references to Doga and Unne in FFIII (incidentaly, Unne also appeared as the language professor who teaches you the Lefinish langauge in FFI), and the Invincible airship from FFIII also appears in FFIX (as I mentioned in my previous post). I think there is one other FFIII reference in FFIX, but I can’t quite remember it at the moment.


Ereptor Eximius
07-18-2004, 01:38 PM
Another not so well known reference to previous FF’s is that Kuja’s Theme is actually a variation on the Desert theme for FFV

Q: What weapon do you get after beating the two little mage people? (I’m sorry i forgot their name)


Enkidoh
07-29-2004, 07:20 PM
I assume you mean Zorn and Thorn (the jester twins who are always mimicing each other), however when you fight them in the chapel in Alexandria Castle in disc 2, you don’t receive anything after winning the battle, although you can steal a Mythril Armlet and a Mythril Armour from Thorn, and a Stardust Rod and a Partisan from Zorn.

When you fight them as their combined boss form Meltigemini in Mount Gulug in disc 3 however, you recieve 2 Vaccines. I’m not sure if this is actually the answer you’re looking for, but I’m not sure exactly what mages you’re meaning (unless you’re really referring to the Black Waltzes, of which there are actually three.).

Moocha Coffee, Kirman Coffee, and Burman Coffee.

Moocha is found at Bohden Arch on the King Ed Plains on the Mist Continent (you can get it in disc 1), Kirman is found on the back porch of Eiko’s House in Madain Sari (in disc 2), and Burman is the hardest Coffee to get (Dali in disc 3).

You can only get this coffee at one point in disc 3, when Zidane and the party are in Treno for the Card Tournament. Head back to Dali when in control of Zidane and find the Mayor’s Key in his house. Using the Key, use it on the locked door in the Windmill in Dali. The final coffee is located underneath a hidden treasure chest which has 30 000 gil in it (inspect the treasure chest again after receiving the gil).

Actually, they’re made of Mist and Black Magic. Kuja mentions the ingriedents when he rattles off the ‘recipe’ to making Black Mage Soldiers when Zidane and the gang confront him at the top of the Iifa Tree at the end of disc 2, apparently as a taunt towards Vivi.

For those curious to know the answer to my question, the names of the four ruling Nobles of Treno, are simply named after chess pieces (I sorry about how I said ‘playing cards’ as a hint which was a stupid mistake on my part): King, Queen, Knight and Bishop.

King is the owner of the Auction House and the mansion which Zidane broke into years before, and is believed to be actually Kuja (as he was often seen at the Auction House after hours); Queen is Queen Stella, the woman you give the Stellazzio coins to; Knight is the owner of the Weapon Store, and finally the Bishop is the owner of the Tower where Doctor Tot resides, as well as owning the Synthesist store (where Marcus tried stealing the Supersoft from).

As for how long the Berkmea Cableway has been running, I’m not sure. I’ll have to play the game again to find out (although as it’s Mist powered, I’d say it wouldn’t be any more than about forty or fifty years, given the fact that the Mist engine was invented by Regent Cid’s father, Cid the VIII.)

NEW Q. Which district in Lindblum was completely destroyed after being attacked by Alexandria?


Enkidoh
10-02-2004, 07:57 PM
A: The Industrial District. There is a logical reason too why that section of the city was completely wiped out in the attack while all other areas escaped complete destruction.

The Industrial District was where Lindblum’s airship engineers dwelt, and as Cid’s airship fleet was what maintained their military dominance in the world, it was easiest to eliminate the source of their military muscle, as without the airships Lindblum can’t defend themselves. Note that Brahne had to wait until she had a weapon power stronger than Lindblum’s airship fleet (i.e. Garnet’s eidolons) before she actually attacked Lindblum though.

Q: What is Queen Brahne’s favourite flower? (Type and colour)

Boy, it’s been a while since I was last here… ๐Ÿ™‚

Anyway, it was Cid the VIII who invented the Mist Engine, the current Cid (Cid the IX)’s father. There is a statue of him in the main square of Lindblum’s Industrial District next to the entrance to the Aircab station, on disc 1.

As for Sage’s original question, the correct answer was the Namingway Card which is the card found hidden in Kuja’s room in the Desert Palace.

heh heh this one might start up some debates…

is it Iifa tree or Lifa tree?


Enkidoh
12-29-2004, 09:52 PM
Let’s not start this again….

And for the record, it’s supposed to be Iifa, as that is how it’s always referred to in official strategy guides (such as the much maligned Brady Games FFIX guidebook), who get their information straight from Square themselves (and I assume it’s the same on Square’s own online FFIX strategy guide on Playonline).

Besides, if it really was ‘Lifa’, then it most likely would have been written as ‘Rifa’ in the Japanese version, as the Japanese do not seem to differentiate between ‘r’ and ‘l’ when writing in romanji letters (a well known incidence of this in the FF series was Celes being known as ‘Ceres’ in the Japanese version of FFVI), as they pronnounce them the same. But I digress…

If no one else wants to post a question, then here’s one:

Q: In the play at the start of the game – I Want to Be Your Canary, what was the name of the prince that Ruby’s character Princess Cornelia was supposed to marry? (and whom Steiner inadvently takes the role of for a short time!)

Enkidoh
01-06-2005, 08:19 PM
A: Excalibur and Excalibur II.

As for my earlier question, (what is the most powerful armour for Steiner and Freya), your answer isn’t correct Sleep. Going on statistics, Tin Armour is in fact the best armour in the gamel, as it’s stats of 62 Def, 32 Eva, 27 Magic Def and 17 Magic Eva are much better than the Grand Armour’s 59 Def and Stength +1. Incidentally Tin Armour can only be synthed by Hades in Memoria in disc 4 with a Hammer and an Ore for 50 000 gil.

Q: What is the best armour (if you could call it that) for a mage (like Garnet and Eiko), where are the places it can it be found, bought and synthed, and what is it’s defense?


Sleep
01-07-2005, 12:52 PM
It’s also true that tin armour can’t be used by freya.

Luna is indeed correct.

Quina has Auto-Life as a Blue Magic spell, and, for those interested, it can be learnt by having Quina eat either a Carrion Worm around Cleyra, a Cerberus at Ipsen’s Castle, a Gimme Cat outside Daguerreo, a Stilva in Memoria (disc 4), or a Yan on Vile Island.

serve?

Enkidoh
03-05-2005, 06:37 AM
Actually, the correct word is ‘kill’ – Kuja designed them as such as weapons of war, and besides, the third one even says so when it tries ramming the Cargo Ship:

"I exist only to kill!" (repeat ad nausem).

Q: According to the messages on the Eidolon Wall in Madain Sari, what was the first Eidolon ever summoned, and what form did she take? (that was probably a big giveaway)…


OmegaWeapon

Shiva, I believe they talked about her growing stronger and such but if they didn’t I remember it was Shiva. You must beat the game in under how many hours in order to obtain Excalibur II? (I know this is easy but it’s all I can think of, I think I’m gonna do this mission over the summer)

Here’s the rules:

1. You post a question asking something about a final fantasy game (depending which forum you are in)
2. the next person replies with what they think is the answer and another question
3. remember to tell the last poster if they got it right or not

First one:
Q. What does Garnet do to her hair later on in the game

A.cut it


OmegaWeapon
03-05-2005, 04:21 PM
Ummm… yeah that was like a long time ago, and it’s been answered, and the current question is You must beat the game in under how many hours in order to obtain Excalibur II?

Sujin
03-05-2005, 08:02 PM
wow, im getting a headache thinking of this.
12 hours. duh.

what item must you obtain through others in order to get the Excalibur? (not exc II)

OmegaWeapon
03-05-2005, 08:09 PM

hell i have no idea, jake. is it like silent hill or something?

OmegaWeapon
03-06-2005, 12:02 AM
The word Hill is involved, go kill Trance Kuja unless you’re too lazy, it’s worth just to hear Messenger of Destruction anyways.

Phantom of the Orphanage
03-06-2005, 04:39 AM
Wow, I thought I was an expert on FFIX, but what a rude awakening! I have no idea as to what the answer is…

Sujin
03-06-2005, 08:08 AM
The word Hill is involved, go kill Trance Kuja unless you’re too lazy, it’s worth just to hear Messenger of Destruction anyways.

yeah i am too lazy =)… i can just listen to DM it here on FFS


Enkidoh
03-06-2005, 10:06 AM
A: It’s actually the Hill of Despair (which is appropriately named, given the moaning and cries of pain and suffering which echo off in the distance, giving the whole place a gloomy, Purgatory-like effect…

Q: This is a hard one, but anyway…

According to one of the engineers in Lindblum, what it is the main problem that affected the steam engine of the Hilda Garde II airship? (Hint, it’s mentioned to Regent Cid during an ATE sequence early in disc 3)


OmegaWeapon
03-06-2005, 04:54 PM
Well, this one will probably take me a few guesses before I can get it right so I’ll start off with, can’t it only travel a short distance before going down? (As seen before the Eiko Garnet Alexander scene), I know that’s one of the problems the mention butn ot sure itf it’s that specific one.

Phantom of the Orphanage
03-07-2005, 03:27 AM
I don’t know of any others specifically except the aforementioned…

Sujin
03-07-2005, 11:48 PM
omegaweapon has the right answer, but we have to wait for enkidoh to OK it =(

Enkidoh
03-08-2005, 06:56 PM
Actually, OmegaWeapon was partially correct. As mentioned by one of the engineers in the Lindblum Airship Dock/workshop early in disc 3, the main problem with the Hilda Garde II is actually that they can’t stabilise the engine, as it refuses to run for more than ten minutes before breaking down:

Regent Cid: "Here, this should do it.."
Engineer: "It’s no good sire. We can’t stabilise the engine system. It won’t run for more than ten minutes at a time…"
Regent Cid: "Damn it! *gwok*"

Anyway, OmegaWeapon came close enough, so feel free to post the next one…

Two Elixers, three hi-potions, four ethers, and 2 Germina’s Boots.
Where is Dagger actually from?

The Sage
03-11-2005, 09:22 PM
Yes you are right

Madain Sari

wtf is that question on? all you have to do is be awake during the game to get that one.

who is it that discovers the lift inside the Iifa tree (the one down to the gaia) of course Zidane activates it but who finds it.

I’m gonna hae to assume I’m right since no one will say so.
What is the name of the rare ATE that can be seen in Treno, you have ot do special thingfs to see it.

Enkidoh
03-18-2005, 05:14 PM
A: Crime & Punishment. I can’t remember what you have to do in the game to view it though…

Q: What is the name of the mountain range that divides the lower half of the Mist Continent between Alexandria and Lindblum? (the one that South Gate crosses?)

Hint, it’s one of the places mentioned when Zidane looks through the telescope on the top of Lindblum Castle…


Kurisutaru
04-06-2005, 12:19 AM
North Gate?

Dragoncurry
04-06-2005, 01:02 AM
The Mountian range is called the "NORTH GATE?" lmao prolly not.

OmegaWeapon
04-06-2005, 05:04 AM
Not north gate, it’s on the tip of my tongue, I think it starts with an E…Ek…? Getting close?

UltimateFFFan
04-06-2005, 08:59 AM
I don’t think so…… I think it begins with A I think, or E. The Eristes or something?

Enkidoh
04-10-2005, 12:12 PM
You are getting very close UltimateFFFan, very close indeed. Although it’s not Eristes…

As this seems to be stumping everyone, I’ll give another hint:

UltimateFFFan was on the right track: it’s five letters long, it’s first letter is ‘A’ and it’s second letter is ‘e’…

And it sounds the same as a slang term for suburbia (as well as the title of a Sims game on the PC).. but that probably gave it away… ๐Ÿ˜‰


OmegaWeapon
04-10-2005, 01:13 PM

I’ve waited long enough for him to post…………

here’s mine

What item’s do you have to have to get the special ending?


Enkidoh
04-14-2005, 05:45 PM
A: You only have to keep the Hammer in your inventory (gained by collecting all 12 Stellazzios, along with the secret 13th one) in order to add the extra, secret scene into the ending – Save the Queen does not influence the ending, despite what the ‘official’ European Piggyback FFIX strategy guide says to the contrary. That was just a typo which has fuelled a thousand rumours surrounding it, and I can honestly say, it is NOT true. Save the Queen does NOTHING to the ending.

Q: What species of creatures supposedly worked the now abandoned mine shafts in Mount Gulug on the Lost Continent? (Hint: reading the notices inside the mines while heading through there in disc 3 reveal their identity).


Garnet
04-14-2005, 08:28 PM
i think it was the mole people

Sujin
04-14-2005, 11:44 PM
i refuse to answer. it’s omega’s turn. eric, you are new here. it does not go however you want it to.

Enkidoh
04-15-2005, 06:11 PM
In response to my question, Garnet was right. Mole people were mentioned as having excavated Mount Gulug hundreds of years perviously, but then abandoned their tunnels to monsters and the dark.

Anyway,.. Garnet or Omega can feel free to post the next question.


Garnet
04-15-2005, 10:38 PM
i give the curtasy (sp?) to omega.

OmegaWeapon
04-16-2005, 04:46 PM
Ok then.
What are genomes used for? (Sorry for the easy question, jsut can’t think of anything good.)

Sujin
04-16-2005, 05:38 PM
wow the only easy one that i don’t know… genomes are used for experiments?

OmegaWeapon
04-17-2005, 02:57 PM
NO! That is not their purpose, they have apurpose, a reason why they were made.

Enkidoh
04-17-2005, 06:09 PM
SPOILER ALERT:
.

The Genomes were actually created by Garland as host bodies for the sleeping souls of Terra’s original (presumably human) civillisation, after Terra ‘assimillated’ with Gaia. Normally, the Genomes are meant to be devoid of emotion and free will, existing essentially as semi-intelligent robots, however, Garland created three special Genomes with souls, emotion AND free will, for special tasks (I won’t mention who they are, as it gives away the plot and most of the end portion of the game).

Q: Why did those two Black Mages oversee and devote themselves to the hatching of the chocobo egg at the Black Mage Village?


Sujin
04-17-2005, 07:03 PM
because they wanted to eat it?

Dragoncurry
04-18-2005, 06:25 AM
A: Because they wanted to accomplish something before they ‘stopped’

Enkidoh you have to take 10 min one day and explain the last few parts of the game to me man. i have no idea who the hell Necron or anyone was. In case im right (ignore me if I am not)

Who was Necron?


eric_g_08
04-19-2005, 04:16 PM
The begining and the end…..

Enkidoh
04-19-2005, 04:37 PM
Actually, a few points here.

First, in regards to my question, the reason the two Black Mages adopted the chocobo egg is because they were responsible for the death of the mother chocobo who laid it, moments before they became self-aware.

Seeing the mother chocobo’s dead body lying next to the egg, they felt remorse and guilt for their actions, and so, as recompensense, they adopt the egg and look after it, until it hatches into a chocobo they name ‘Bobby Corwell’ (BoCo for short).

As for Necron, that is a major plot spoiler (eric_g_08 was close), however:

SPOILER ALERT!!

Necron is the antithesis (or opposite) of the Crystal of Life (the Crystal in the logo). As the Crystal creates life and existence, Necron destroys it. It has always existed, ever since the beginning of time itself, waiting for the chance to return existence back into nothingness (or "return everything back to the zero world" as it says.).

When Kuja insanely threatens to destroy the Crystal, it summons Necron, as Necron mistakenly believes Kuja’s actions as proof that he was in fact acting on behalf of all existence – that the universe and life no longer wanted to exist.

As Zidane and the party manage to defeat it, it merely confirms that life in fact wanted to exist all along, and were willing to fight for it. With that fact confirmed, Necron has no choice but to disappear back into whatever dark hell it came from, but will always exist as long as the Crystal exists.

I wrote up a good, extensive summary of most of FFIX’s plot line in a very old thread here in FFS several years ago (it’s here in the FFIX section, so a search back should find it), if you have any questions about finer points of FFIX’s story.

Anyway, eric_g_08 was close enough, so feel free post the next question.


eric_g_08

Enkidoh
05-01-2005, 06:21 AM
A: Ruby’s hair is more of a grey colour actually.

Q: Including the huge Airship gate (Falcon’s Gate), how many gates to the world map does the city of Lindblum have?


The Anti-Existence
05-01-2005, 12:13 PM
There’s three: The Falcon’s Gate (air), The Serpant’s Gate (water) and the Dragon’s Gate (land).

Q. How many letters did Stiltzkin give to the other Moogles?


Dark_soilder
05-02-2005, 05:50 AM
i think its like four or five if thats right then here goes
what are the names of all the friendly monsters and what are you able to do once you get them all

The Anti-Existence
05-02-2005, 11:58 AM
You’re right, but I don’t know your question. I only ever beat on the Friendly Monsters.

Enkidoh
05-02-2005, 04:45 PM
I had to dig out one of my old FFIX strategy guides to answer this, but anyway, here goes:

A: Mu (found in the area near Dali)
Ghost (found on the plains near Treno)
Ladybug (found in the forest surrounding the Black Mage Village)
Yeti (appears in forests surrounding Madain Sari)
Nymph (appears in the deserts surrouding Cleyra)
Jabberwock (found in forests near the canyons that surround Oeilvert)
Feather Circle (found on the ice fields near Esto Gaza)
Garuda (found in the forest on the ledge overlooking Gizamaluke’s Grotto)
Yan (forest on Vile Island).

Finding all of the friendly monsters gives you the ability to damage Ozma with physical attacks, as well as removing it’s annoying absorb Shadow elemental effect, making the battle much easier.

Q: How many skipping rope jumps does Vivi have to do in order to win the Tiger Paw racket at the belltower in Alexandria?

Close. It is to do with colour, but there is something to do with the name "Amarant" that relates to the colour red.

Is it flaming salamander?

Enkidoh
05-16-2005, 06:21 PM
It is indeed.

Amarant in fact was originally called Salamander in the original Japanese version of FFIX, but his name was changed in the US and European versions to Amarant, presumedly because the text boxes in the game couldn’t fit in the translated name in English letters.


eric_g_08

Yeah, he was turned into an oglop first (he became a frog after an alchemical attempt to return him to normal went slightly awry), which he was turned into out of revenge by his wife, Lady Hilda, who caught him having an affair with another woman…

Anyway Sujin, with the exception of me and Enkidoh, I believe that eric_g_08 is the most active user of this thread? So, it does kind of give him the right to say if something’s right. I’m not too bothered, unless they do get it wrong, then I correct them

I don’t think they are going to post a question. They made that post like 12 days ago, so someone else post otherwise this thread will stop or just be filled out with spam.
