maybe she summoned jinn to walk on the laval or sheva to freez a road

Or maybe she is immune to lava. she isn't when shes with the party. but besides the point, shes immune.

Wouldn't ice melt and she didn't have jinn 2 walk her across.

Even if she was immune to lava, she is still more dense, and thus would sink, then suffocate.
Good plothole. I'm slightly upset that I didn't think of that one.

How come 1st form Zeromus didn't attack the party like he did Golbez and FuSoYa? Can his first form only mimic and amplify attacks? Interesting.

-edit- I love grammar. Love it. It is good. It allows people to understand each other. Even if proper syntax is occasionally ignored, grammar allows for effective communication.

Words spelled correctly, punctuation, using actual words instead of abbreviating them with numbers, full sentences; I love it. Everyone makes typos, but it appears that some people actually expend the effort to type incorrectly.

Internet shorthand and leet are bad things. Avoid them please. *gets off soapbox*

[SuperSabin2005]

thats because they weren't in the arena when zemus was fighting fusoya and golbez

[Rasler]

A slight misunderstanding occured; I'll rephrase it.

Why didn't 1st form Zeromus atttack the party at all? He does nothing until you use the crystal. How come?

He mimicked and amplified Meteo when golbez and FusoYa cast it, but he doesn't if Rydia casts it on him.

WTF?

[SuperSabin2005]

oh that form of zeromus. he probably doesn't attack because either hes rubbing it in or hes afraid they were going to use the crystal on him.

[Rasler]

Alright, I conferred with FFIV Guru Kensuro, and he says

"Oh, he dosn't attack because that is Zermus dorment state .
He is unable to atack in that state, because he is basicly imprisoned in his own body, and only able to use his telepathic powers to make others do things for him. it wasn't until Cecil used the Crystal to expel the barrior around Zerous, was he able to use his powers against the party, and the party actualy be able to attack him. since the barrior is won't alllow any form of attacks to pennitrate."
"I am thinking ZEMUS was a tepepathic being or something." -sic

Straight from the horse's mouth, folks.

He's probably gonna sword-rape me again for calling him a horse. >.>

-edit- He demands free advertising, and he outranks me. I'm a mere FFIV Scholar and he's a guru. Here's his site, still under reconstruction, but quite functional: http://www.ffiveternallight.com/index.html

For the first form of Zeromus, Y didn't he just use meteor, They all would have dided.

[Rasler]

Yes. That was indeed the point of the last 5 or so posts. Thanks for the summary, Brachio.

[Brachioraidos]

ur welcome and for the baron water ways, Y couldn't u get in there a the beging of the game?

[Rasler]

Simple. The door was locked. Baron doesn't like to leave doors unlocked, being the supreme military power and all.

[Brachioraidos]

I mean through the castle...

[Rasler]

Actually, it is quite possible to get into the moat early in the game, the doorway is there, you just have to go through it. As for the actual path through the waterways as a backdoor into the caste, as I've stated: It is locked. Dunno the reason it would be unlocked later in the game, other than a deus ex machina way to get into the castle.
