Leveling up!

Bryan · 09-20-2005, 02:39 PM

So yeah. I've been leveling up at the little area before Kuja. Don't get me wrong, things are going quickly for having all of my (main) characters in mid-80 levels. But is there any other place where I can get higher exp? Difficulty isn't a freakin problem at all...it's just getting annoying leveling so slow. Maybe I'm just impatient?

It depends on where you are. My favorite way of leveling up is just to go near Daguerro with Quina in the party. Yes. Quina. Choose another character to go along, and have Quina immediately use level 5 Death. It always works, and is an easy 15,000 experience. Couple that with level up, and hell, it's easy.

There's always Yans. Oh goody Yans. Try to put them to sleep with the night spell. Again, Quina. I sense a pattern here.

Earlier in disk 3, when Steiner is with Marcus in Alexandria Castle, you can fight an infinite amount of soldiers. Give Steiner the blood sword, and kill off Marcus. Using an auto controller, turbo the X button, and use a rubber band to keep it down. Leave it on overnight, and Steiner should be at or close to level 99. Plus, you'll have a ton of gil.

The rubber band idea is the most creative idea I've heard in ages. Hands down. Sadly, I've rejected Quina, though. I haven't worked with that character at all. Why? Because I'm not a fan of Quina.

Hahaha, same here. Sure the cuts with Quina were fun to watch. But he was annoying as hell. Gimzagrotts' (sp?) Motto. Outside is a forest. Tough monsters spell EXP MANIA! OMGWTF! Also, the 'desert' place outside of Olivero is a good place to level, shit loads of exp there.

Are you training anywhere in particular at the moment?

The place where you get the most exp from a single battle would probably be vs. Yans, but then again, it's pretty hard to defeat them without using your whole party. The Quina idea is good, but very few have a turbo controller, so I've never tried it.

Oooh, you clever whore. Daddys' gunna give you some for that. Whoever 'daddy' is O_o;...
Seriously though, thats a really clever idea. Too bad I'll never get to use it, what with not having an auto controller. God, I hate you, Brad.

The Best place to level up is definitly Popo's Heights for all four discs.

The Salvage Archepolcolo is a good place to.

I will never understand why people shun Quina. He's seriously one of the best characters in the game. He can be a white mage in one battle, a black mage in the next, and all the while keep you protected with the Mighty Guard Ability. Not to mention that I fell in love with the 1000 needles ability in disc 2. I never stopped using him with it until Zidane and Steiner got hella powerful later in the game. Easiest 1000 points of damage you'll ever do.

And, with Quina, it's an instant exp gaining fest when facing Grand Dragons, since they can't evade lvl. 5 death.

I've been leveling up right outside of where you fight Kuja for the final time. Just going back and forth through there. Isn't it called Memoria or something along those lines?

yunie666 · 10-11-2005, 11:11 AM

yeah it's called memoria, and yes it's rubbish for levelling. just go and fight the grand dragons at popos height trust me you'll soon start racking up the levels!

fire exit man · 10-12-2005, 03:17 AM

from my experience the grand dragons are pathetic for levelling up, i'm just over level 70 and they only give me 8000 EXP! Memoria is a much better place to level up, especially because the card phantoms are there as well. Plus it's where Hades lives, so if you haven't fought him, you can get the AP from beating him!

There's this island south of the outer continent where there are some quite tough sheep monsters. They can be a bit of a hassle, even when you reach the highler levels, but the experience points are definately well worth it.

your in your lvl 80s dam i was only lvl 62 wen i beat the game
