Can someone help me?
I have everyone except Shadow. How can I get him?

**Dawezy** · 02-25-2003, 01:23 PM

In the World of Ruin? easy shit.

Goto the Colleseum, and put your betting item in as the "Striker" Knife, which Shadow is looking for, with any luck you will be up against him, and you will more then likely kick his ass.. lol, after that he joins you and you keep the Striker ^^.

You should've posted this in the Helpline, i'll merge it with it now.

EDIT: If you dont face him in the Colleseum (make sure you save before you go in) goto the Cave in the Veldt and you will find him there;

(shamelessly ripped from a walkthrough

)

In here when you enter Interceptor will see you and it appears that he wants you to follow him. So follow him and in this next room there are thieves near a fire, talk to them and they will tell you SPECIFICALLY how to acquire Gau if you had not done so yet, so if you can't interpret their words and still don't understand you are pretty slow! Continue through and pick up the treasure chest to the left and inside it contains a RAGE RING relic. There is also another treasure chest which contains TIGER FANGS for Sabin, but its guarded by an Allo Ver.

After that make your way through to the bottom staircase. And continue to go through the stairs until you reach a door with a switch to the right of it. Hit the switch and pick up the STRIKER and then continue through to the right and you should eventually reach a save point, so save your game and heal your wounds. Then make your way to the next room you will see Shadow(or Relm if Shadow did not jump off with you on the Floating Continent). Then suddenly the party is attacked!

BOSS BATTLE:
SirBehemoth(2)
HP: 19,000

This battle will be difficult, cause you will have to face off against the two of them. Have Terra and Celes use Fire magic on the first SirBehemoth and have Cyan use his SwdTech, Sabin his Blitz(pummel or Suplex), Gau anyone of his rage attacks, Setzer his regular attacks or Slots, and have Edgar use his Drill in this battle. Keep doing this until the first one dies and then another one will attack from behind. This time continue the same pattern but have Celes and Terra use Ice magic against the 2nd SirBehemoth. After defeating the two you will recieve a BEHEMOTHSUIT and CRYSTAL SHLD.

After the battle the party takes Shadow(or Relm) to Thamasa where he can heal his wounds. Then a flashback occurs to Shadow's past where he left out of town and Interceptor follows.

Then its AFTER that when you goto the Colleseum and do the whole Striker thing.

I think I have a problem I can't find it anymore is there another way to get a striker or Shadow?

02-26-2003, 08:19 AM

And another thing I deafeated 6 dragons but I can't find anymore of them (I defeated them in Narshe, the Magic Tower, Ancient Castle, Mt Zozo, Opera House and the Phoenix Cave).
Ehere's the rest of them.

Did you save him in the World of Balance? at the End of the Floating Continent? if you didnt, well, you wont be able to find him sorry, heh.

Theres 8 dragons, heh.

(also, shamelessly ripped from a FAQ)

Remember when you were in Mt.Zozo and I told you not to fight that Wind Dragon? Well if you listened and haven't done so head back to the place and hit the switch to reveal the Wind Dragon and make sure you have some strong magic and also that you have a THUNDER SHLD equipped. Then go near the Dragon and a fight will ensue.

Storm Dragon
HP: 42,000
ITEM: Force Armor

This battle here will be very tough, but if you can defeat the MagiMaster you can win this battle as well. Keep your HP above 800 and pound it with your regular attacks. Use Ultima if you have it or Meteor, Flare, or Pearl. Have Sabin use his Bum Rush(or any other of his Blitz attacks) and have Cyan use his level 7 SwdTech to deal monster damage, have Edgar use his Drill(if you are at level 80 this can deal over 8000 HP of damage with every hit!) and have Gau use one of his rages. Have Gogo mimic a strong attack(E.G. Ultima, Drill, etc.), have Mog use his best Dance, have Strago use his GrandTrain Lore attack, and have Relm attack with magic. Anybody equipped with the THUNDER SHLD will take no damage from his Wind Slash attack and you will absorb any of his lightning attacks.

After the battle there are now 7 dragons left. Did you remember when you were in the Pheonix Cave there was a dragon walking around? In case you did not choose to fight it, head back once you are strong enough and go near it and a fight will ensue.

Red Dragon
HP: 30,000
ITEM: Strato

This battle here will be very tough just like the first battle. He will use a lot of Fire magic as you can expect and also as you can expect hit him with Ice magic to deal heavy damage. If you are wearing an armor that protects against Fire or absorbs fire that should do you well. He will use Fire 2 and Fire 3 at times and his regular attacks will do mild damage, not much that will get you concerned over anything. Use Ultima, Meteo, Flare, Pearl, or Ice 3 to damage him. Contiue this pattern and keep your HP above 1000, so that his Fire 3 attack won't get you.

After the battle there are now 6 dragons left. Head towards Narche and along the northern mines there is a dragon wandering around, just walk near it and a fight will ensue.

Ice Dragon
HP: 24,400
ITEM: Force Shield

Here in this battle hit it with everything you've got. Fire magic works real well in this battle as you can expect and use Ultima, Meteo, Flare, or Pearl to damage it if you don't have a Fire 3 magic. He will use his Absolute 0 attack, so watch for it and keep your HP above 500. Also when your party members are frozen use fire magic on them to free them, if he gets your entire party with it, there is literally nothing you can do about it. Keep hacking away and he should be gone.

After the battle there are now 5 dragons left. Now head for the Magic Tower in which you acquired Strago in and at the third part of the tower there is a room in which you got the STUNNER in, a dragon is in that room go to it and a fight will ensue.

White Dragon
HP: 18,500
ITEM: Pearl Lance

This battle will be pretty tough. Don't use Pearl in this battle because it will absorb it, so use Ultima, Meteo, or Flare. Keep your HP above 1200 and keep pounding him with your magic attacks like Fire 3 or Ice 3. He will start the battle off with two consecutive Pearl attacks and they will do about 1100 HP of damage. Keep using Ultima in this battle and he will counter with Dispel, if you cna keep a constant chain of Ultima spells he will seldom pull off his Pearl attack!

After the battle you will recieve the PEARL LANCE. Now there are just four dragons left. Now go to Figaro Castle and ask the driver to go to Figaro and he will say that something is odd about the stratum. Refer to the Odin's reign section of the Side Area to tell you exactly where the next dragon is.

Water Dragon
HP: 26,900

Here in this battle your lighting attacks will do well against him. Have Sabin use his Aurabolt, and have any other of the characters use lightning based attacks or their best and most damaging attacks. Keep your HP above 500 otherwise its Clean Sweep attack will get you. Keep this process up until you've won. NOTE: If Clean Sweep is used on Strago here in this battle he will learn it. Its a more powerful version of AquaRake.

Now there are 3 dragons left. Head for the Opera House on the southwestern part of the world map to face off against your next dragon. In here talk to the Impressario and he will tell you that a dragon is sitting smack in the middle of the stage. Head for the switch room at the top right and hit the second switch from the right and you will fall to the floor below and a fight will ensue.

Dirt Dragon
HP: 28,500
ITEM: Magus Rod

This battle will be tough. Cast Float(you should do this before battle) to every party member in here so you can avoid his Quake and Magnitude8 attack. If you don't you will suffer at least 1800 HP of damage from his Quake attack and about 1100 from his Magnitude8 attack. After you are on Float status all you have to worry about are his physical attacks which do only about 400 HP of damage, and his Slide attack which does about 700 HP of damage to every party member. So keep your HP up and keep attacking him with your strongest attacks like Ultima, Flare, Pearl you know the real deal. Keep this up and you should win the battle.

After the battle it looks like the Impressario will have to save the world again. There are now only two dragons left. So where are they? The two last dragons are on Kefka's Tower silly! The second group in Kefka's Tower will fight the Gold Dragon.

Gold Dragon
HP: 32,400
ITEM: Crystal Orb

Yes I know, it doesn't look like a dragon to me. It looks more like a dinosaur, but who cares. This battle will be tough, it uses only lightning attacks like GigaVolt, Bolt 3, Bolt 2, and Bolt. Its Bolt attacks do a lot of damage, but having the Thunder Shld equipped in this battle will make the battle go by like a breeze. Hit him with your most powerful magics and keep your HP up at all times and hopefully he will be gone.

After the battle there is only 1 dragon left. The third group will face off against the last dragon.

SKULL DRAGON
HP: 32,800
ITEM: Muscle Belt

This battle will be pretty tough. Since this dragon is undead it has a weakness against fire. Use your most powerful fire spells and other magic spells. Watch for its Disaster attack, it will make a party member be infected with every negative status effect in the book, but having either the RIBBON or PALADIN SHLD equipped will counteract those effects. Keep your HP and attack fast otherwise you will be knocked out with its Condemned attack.

Please dont double post, heh, you could've edited the first one and added the new info.

02-26-2003, 11:49 PM

That really s*cks that I can't get him back.
And thanks for the other info.

Where's the best part to train in the WoR?
And what level do you need to go in Kefka's Tower?

03-07-2003, 08:40 AM

Where can I get the cursed ring for the air anchor?

**Dawezy** · 03-07-2003, 01:06 PM

Galuf, stop double-posting damnit. Im gonna have to serve you with a warning if i see it again.

As for the Cursed Ring, i only knew about a Cursed Shield (which i recently got, heh)..

Best part to train in the WoR would be in that Forest North/West of the Veldt where those Dinosaurs are, you get some fearsome amounts of EXP, and it helps if you have the EXP.EGG Relic.

Level for Kefkas tower? ehh.. 30-40+ i'd say.. i havent gotten to it yet and most of my guys are 50+ ^_^.

03-09-2003, 12:48 PM

I just defeated Poltrgeist but I can't get any further.
What should I do?

03-28-2003, 10:09 AM

Im assuming you know how to equip one.. de-equipping them is just as easy.. instead of selecting an actual esper.. select one of the blank spaces and it should un-equip it... if not (or all the espers are there) goto the airship, get the person out of the party, and goto the guy who can de-equip everyone who ISNT in your party.. and thats a sure-fire way to remove it.

problem - can i get mog before the world of ruin? i think i saw on a website somewheres all you do is go up to the wolf dude thats holding mog with 3 party members or something. i cant remember.

help=appreciated

P.S. dark daw, it may be late but wtf. see when you were answering the questions from gestahl, did you choose 'take a rest' near the end? if you did then you potentialy miss out on a couple of points at the end. just double checking.

EDIT by Dawezy: Sig disabled, picture too big.

You can get mog anytime before the whole Floating Continent thing, and anytime after the WoR goes into action.. i personally got him AFTER the WoR then Umaro shortly after, but hey, thats just me.. lol, doesnt matter if you have a full party or not he'll still appear and you can get him to join you.

About the P.S, heh.. back then, yes i did infact choose that option, but what i forgot to do (and im still kickin myself about it) is battle those guards on the opposite end of the table, they give you another few points which would've gotten me my Moogle Charm for free, heh -_-`.. but eh, i got it for free in my current game i think, where? i bloody well forget

but i got it, lol.

Might wanna adjust your sig a bit, 'tis pretty damn big for smaller res screens..

sabin_66 · 04-26-2003, 02:58 AM

any way, thanks for tellin me that but i cant get him/her how hrd i try. the wolf dude keeps goin 'stay back or ill kill it' or something and i cant get near. help?

EDIT by Dawezy: sig disabled, picture is too big.
