18 Tips and Tricks for Surviving Combat in FFXV
This video is a Final Fantasy XV guide that will help you understand combat a little better and help you survive in Lucis and beyond. I share 18 tips and tricks I've picked up along my 100+ hours. I've completed everything there is to complete in Final Fantasy 15, and I figured I'd share with everyone that may be struggling how to use the FF15 combat to their advantage. In this guide I will be going over control schemes, Techniques, Food, Airdancing, the Ultima Weapon (Ultima Blade) quest including the Rusted Bit, Glass Gemstone and Sturdy Helixhorn, , how to make a quick 500k gil, and other advanced combat tactics to help you storm over everything in your path.

I just started playing final fantasy 15 and this really helps thanks
Did it work?
Agreed I wish there was more videos just like beginner guides but there's nothing wrong with learning it all yourself you know
"How do spells without hurting party"
"gravisphere!"
Literally burns the whole party
There's a equipment thing that you put on ignis to make sure friendly spells don't f u up
This video is the mother of all FFXV tips and tricks. Appreciate for sharing all the tips. Cheers!
Thanks for watching. =D Hope it helped.
i absolutely 100% agree
@@TheRestlessCorpse default layout B is better on ps4
I second this comment. I’d be nothing in XV without this tut
The type C layout recommendation alone is worth the watch but so much more. Thank you for doing this, it is fantastic and my wife and I have gone back to this multiple times to refresh! Great job!
So, I've got a few things to add to this video, what with all the updates up until now.
1st: VORTEX WEAPONS
These weapons have been patched into the game via the event quest "Adventurer from another world". It isn't limited by time and the weapons you can get consist of a sword (Gaze of the Vortex), a greatsword (Pain of the Vortex), Daggers (Plumes of the Vortex) and a gun (Abandon of the Vortex). These weapons are, hands-down, among the best of the best. All of them have end-game worthy stats AND have a 100% crit rate, which puts them on top of every other weapon in terms of raw damage (with the exeption of maybe Zwill blades with 100% crit food). Additionally, every one of them, except the gun, deals bonus aerial damage. Pair Gaze of the Vortex with the Airdancing ascension skill and you've basically beaten the game. The other 3 weapons will look very nice on your boy-band members, too.
Alright, while all that sounds too good to be true, they are not that easily obtained. While you unlock the quest as early as chapter 5, its level requirement is set to 45, and even at this level the boss can be tough to put down. You'll also need a buttload of event-exclusive items called "Allagan Tomestones". The boss only drops a single one of them each time you fight it and before end-game you actually need 50 of those suckers to make a single Vortex weapon. BUT you can find up to 90 of them within the level before the boss (3 batches of 30 each). They are very well hidden, though, so I highly suggest watching a guide on that. Important to note is that you can repeat the boss fight, BUT NOT the level leading up to it. If you've missed those 90 Tomestones, they're gone for good unless you load a safe file before your first clear. Once you have those it's a short grind to get 2 of those weapons.
2nd: FOOD
With the Vortex weapons strapped, crit food becomes unnessecary. Instead, for post-game, I suggest either King's Stew (+400 atk, +2000 HP | unlocked by buying Hunter's Ragout meal at the Meldacio Hunter HQ restaurant) or Smoked Behemoth (+400 atk, +1000 HP, +infinite sprint | unlocked by buying Smoked Dualhorn Steak meal at the Verinas Mart in Ravatogh), depending on the situation. I think the ingredients can all be bought in Lestalum.
End-game I always love me some Longwythe's Peak (+600 atk, +4000 HP, +200% HP-regen). Watch a guide if you wanna know how to unlock it. It is end-game food, though. So spoiler warning.
3rd: ARMIGER
Last and shortest point on my list, I swear. xD
JUST before the Armiger bar runs out, initiate a warp-strike. The animation will prolong the Armiger status. Then, just before the warp-strike animation is over, mash RT and LT to cheese in a last second Armiger chain after that, too. Depending on your progress in the game you can one-shot some bosses 100 to 0 with this.
Alright! That was everything I could add in terms of general tips and tricks. If you've made it this far, thanks for reading the whole thing! :D
not sure if you’ll see this but would you be able to give me a guide of sorts. i’m a little over whelmed with this game
@@imcyan- Oof... To be completely honest, I didn't play the game for much longer after this post, meaning it's been about 9-10 months since I last played it. I'm pretty sure I've forgotten a lot about it at this point, but I can non the less try to answer some of your questions. Shoot.
@@fredricksonthe96th ur good, why did you stop playing?
@@imcyan- Simple. I did all there was to do in the game. 🤷♂️
I think around 1400 hours are enough to complete a game and be satisfied with it.
@@fredricksonthe96thgoddamn
Just started playing this a week ago and I feel much more confident going in to battle now. Thanks for putting the time and effort in to make it!
Thanks for this video. Years after my first playthrough, I am coming back to this game and I have a newfound appreciation for it.
Same
i have 99 phoenix downs ...there no way noctis could die
LoL that is how you do it !
Jon Snow Go to Costlemark Dungeon.The endgame one,beyond the door,not the regular one.
Jon Snow i got 99 downs but a phoenix ain't one 😂
edgarector funny how you reply to this exact comment when that secret dungeon does not allow you to use items.
@@nghtspawn651 that's the point 😅 you cant use items in that dungeon so if you go down you are down unless you use Ignis' ability
If you'd like to see me do an actual Let's Play of Final Fantasy XV, respond to this comment and let me know! Include in the comment if you'd rather an full LP with side quests 'n junk, or just important story stuff.
TheRestlessCorpse let's see that Let's Play with everything in it! I wanna see you kill Cactuar until he doesn't have anymore needles! Lol
TheRestlessCorpse u should make a let's play
TheRestlessCorpse a let's play with everything would be nice to see
Have you been to that hidden dungeon you can find after you kill the adamatine hunt? I would like to see a walk through on that plus most will never see it or do it without assistance...
Yeah, I did it. And I hated every minute of it, though I think I'm in the minority on that. Platforming in a game not made for platforming is always bad. =( But the dungeon LOOKs cool, anyway.
This is a fantastic video, and to get the most out of it you need to watch it many times over while you get into the game. Seriously, I have watched a whole pile of 'guides' for this game and this one is the only one that mattered in the slightest. Thanks, dude!
I played this when it came out, hit the end, and then kept playing for the additional content. Now I picked it up for Windows and am playing it on the PC, so checked out this vid for hints. Nice job! I never bothered with air-stepping before, but now I'm gonna work up to the air dancing. And yeah, that thing with insta-death in the Regalia shocked me. I triggered it in a location I shouldn't have and it was shocking to hear everyone screaming as they died. I never tried it again.
I'm 7 years late to the party, but thank you so much for this guide. I play a lot of Action RPGs but mostly Monster Hunter/FromSoftware games where you very carefully trade blows with often just 1-4 enemies at once. This whole ~hold button to attack/dodge~ was so new to me and didn't click with me at all.
I was trying to play the game like a typical action game which didn't really work out. Thanks to your guide I finally understood how this games wants me to play my character and I'm so glad I came across this video, as I probably would have dropped the game otherwise.
Again, thank you!
best ff xv tips and tricks videos i have seen. thanks a lot man
Hey, thanks man.
TheRestlessCorpse no problem man keep it up
The most useful information about FFXV packed into one single video I´ve seen to date! Thank you sir! Subbed.
These tips are awesome! I'm about 20 hours into the game right now, but stil a lot of tips that are super usefull! Thanks!
Thanks bro. I never knew where the last part for the ultima weapon was and im to stubborn to look it up lol. I didnt think you would cover it in this video but thank you none the less 👍
Wow what a helpful video. Heal magic! I didn't even know that there was a 4th slot in elemancy. Thank you!
Hey just picked this game up not too long ago. This video has helped me a lot in clearing up some things that were a bit fuzzy. Thanks again!
I've watched dozens of tutorials and have clocked about 90 hrs. But this tips and tricks video was amazing.
Thank you. Fantastic pointers. I'm a ten times better player than I was now than an hour ago!
One of the best videos I've found so far, great job dude!
thanks bud!
well paced, and i am kept visually engaged. super helpful. try to include level ranges for certain weapons and AP upgrades.
Thanks for all this! I just started playing yesterday and I think I'm up to Chapter 3 (I'm about to go into the waterfall; I actually did but died the first time lol) so hopefully this is gonna help along the way :)
Thank you so much man. I appreciate that you made this. I have been looling for combat help
This really helped a lot. Really insightful and well explained. You deserve so much more credit compared to those other crappy gaming channels
You put in a lot of work in this video. Mad respect thank you so much. I learned a lot!
Seriously I got to number 6 and was like Im going to subscribe. Really in depth, detailed, and straight to the point!! Thanks
Haha, thank you. I'm glad it helps.
Best FFXV Tips video on RUclips.
Changing the controller layout is CRUCIAL to fully enjoying the combat.
Very nice video. I rather watch a tips video more than 10mins and I finish yours from start to finish! Learn a lot too thanks!
I watched this video after beating the game and thought "there aren't 18 different tricks" After watching it, I needed almost all of them! Great video.
Nice vid RestlessCorpse. I have watched plenty of vids and this has been original and helpful for advanced tips. I am changing my layout tomorrow, and heading my ascension towards airdance. Cheers.
+Simon Murphy Glad to hear it helped. Keep in mind many enemy types will swat you right out of the air, but Airdance is a great skill to have nonetheless.
I believe it's time for me to start taking Final Fantasy XV seriously, I've been playing very little as of late (Been stuck on Destiny) But that's about to change. Thanks for the video, it's a HUGE help. Subscribed!
I've only just found this video but dam it is by far the best tips and tricks video for FF15, I even learnt a couple of things
Just picked up this title I can't believe it took me so long!! To check this out it's Wicked!! And I'm having a Blast I like the hunts and usually don't care for all the side quest activity's but this game has a way of presenting it as a realxing form I'm barely on Chapter 2 but always looking for Tips an Tricks! Liked Subscribed
Dude, thanks for this video. I just started playing and this will help a tonne!
These are exactly the kind of tips ive been looking for. good stuff!
Thank you...i know its been a while...but three tips really helped me...Overwhelm + Bow of the Clever; Holy Dodge w Ring, and Ruby Light on easy mode.
Awesome video, pretty much everything i needed help with all in one video. Thanks
Great video! Very helpful and in depth. This was the video i was looking for. If i seen one more video with the best tip being the stamina bar i was gonna flip! hahaha
+Justin Edwards Haha, yeah. Everyone knows that at this point. I wanted to make a video that helps people with the harder aspects of the game. A lot of people have this mindset that the combat is shallow and simple, and they run into endgame and have a hard time.
A must have in FF15 folder. Thanks a bunch bud!
Thank you so much! I started playing just 2 days ago. I really like it so far.
Yeah, it's a pretty great game. Lots of Final Fantasy fan service, which I absolutely love.
dude, changing controls to type c has made the experience so much better. I can actually block effectively now. thanks!
I farm ap outside hammer head with the monster whistle. make sure there is at least 2 warp points in the battle. The monster whistle not only summon monsters but also a magiteck engine warp kill them all and you can easily farm 15 plus ap per fight, but beware, after a few engines spawn the 3rd or fourth of so, the engine will drop a lvl 99 magiteack suit on you instead of troops. if you see that suit you have to retreat immediately especially if your not strong enough to fight it.
this is the best guide video on ffxv on youtube that Isaw so far - and I 've seen a lot ;-)
Thank you! I would also like to watch a lp of yours.
Idunno why, but your name plus your profile picture had me cracking up.
I think I know why ;-)
Your video was incredibly helpful! Thank you for taking the time to put it together!
No problem, man. And thanks for the compliments. I hope this helps you out. =D
My pleasure! I am completely new to the Final Fantasy franchise, and I was already enjoying the game. Your tips, however, completely revolutionized my fighting, taking my enjoyment to a whole new level. From switching to layout C (I was constantly pressing the wrong button after playing Fallout 4 for the last year) to using Gravisphere and other team attacks, I now feel in control during the battles, rather than just jumping around and dying...a lot.
Great informative video brother. Its exactly what I was looking for.
Thank you for the awesome video! I have also put in over 100 hours in this game (~123 right now), but there are some useful stuff in this video that I somehow never realized (makes me wonder how I managed to get this far in the first place)! I have completed everything except the Costlemark Tower menace, which I'll now go give it a second shot and hopefully rule it with your tips.
I regret not knowing about the Ultima Blade early on lol, I got it after Balmung, which is way too late haha.
Healcasts are king in Costlemark 99. Don't even worry about making a bunch in preparation, just craft them on the fly. The only thing that should give you problems are the Coeurl rooms, and possibly the 4xRed Giant room, but if you play carefully in the Red Giant room, and you play aggressively with the Coeurls or eat element nullifying food, those won't be a problem.
Thanks for your tips. I'm 4 hours in game and a little bit confused. :) I'm sure your advices will help me.
omfg thank you so much! I've been dying and misunderstanding this game ever since I got it and I'm finally getting the hang of it!👌ns
+Jayda James Awesome, man! Glad I could help.
It is definitely a game that required background knowledge and research of all the lore
Jayda James I had no idea you had to manually do the techniques for each character lol
Great video. Easily the best tip video I've seen. Appreciate it.
This is helping me. I haven't tested it yet, but I understand more now.
So far I've just been slogging through the game's combat by holding attack, waiting to die, using potions, and repeating. I can never time dodging well enough and it gives me a big oof, my dude.
This video helped me beat the game the first time. Thanks again dude
Thanks for the video. This is one of thr only tip videos that was actually useful. I'm still very early into the game but a lot of your advice is already applicable. Should definitely do more FFXV content if you are up to it.
I thought about doing an LP, but it would take ages. I wanted to just play through the game at my own pace. I may do a level 1 run or something for the channel.
Surprisingly useful video, thank you m8. And after this I would defo watch a let's play. :)
The very first tip being change the layout was the signal that shit was about to get real. Cheers mate gonna try all these out
cool video 🙂, thanks for the tips. I'll definitely try layout c
Already beat the game, but found this to still be very useful. Wish I watched this around the time I started.
Badass video dude. Had to have taken a lot of effort. The real fans out there still appreciate content like this. Thank you.
Took me about 10 hours straight, between editing and recording specific bits. Glad people appreciate it. =D
Bro im not even joking nor am i a bot this guide is the best guide ive seen for any game no other guide beats this man
I'm replaying this with all the DLCs added. It's been 3 years, my 1st and only play through got to lvl 100. But I was just winging it. I was not used to that type of game play. I'm getting the hang of the combat now cause I'm not flailing about, but this definitely helps and is applicable even years later, thanks man 😁
Glad I could help, dude. And I'm glad these tips are still relevant. =D
Im replaying ffxv before ffxvi release, and this is my re-guide.. thanks man
Now this is the best guides and tips thanks man it helped me a lot!!!
Brilliant! Thanks for this, really helpful and interesting :)
Brilliant video, just got the game and it has helped a lot! Earned a sub :)
+Bobby Paterson Hey, thanks man. =D Glad it helped you out.
loved this vid. great information and very helpful. Thank you good sir
Best FFXV video I have seen!
Cheers, mate!
This is the best tutorial. Thank you !! Very helpful
Good stuff man! Gonna go use some of these tips right now
+The Drummer Nerd - Let's Plays and Drumming Thanks, broface! Hope it helps, man.
The sudden realisation...when your 39hours in and didn't realise you had all the ultima weapon items ready for cid. Glad didn't have to go horn hunting 😂
For number 16 you don't need to unlock gravisphere because promto can use the gravity well to do the same thing with out using tech bars
Spaghetti Top gravity well does not scale with magic, so it does less damage. also, it lasts less time.
and the ability also does more damage and last even longer on critical.
also, if you want to use another machine for whaterver reason, you can still use gravity.
You can say you dont need piercer from Promp because there are weapons that also debuff defense. the thing is that prompts debuff is much more stronger on critical than any weapon that does the same debuff.
Actually I just completed Costlemark Dungeon thanks to the healcast method I saw here,so thank you!
17:09 Ultima Blade - Sturdy Helixhorn
Awsome advice mate, more complete than the others i have seen.
+Frank Rial Thanks, man. =D
thanks for the great tips 15 and 16 were most helpful
there's a rusted bit sometimes on the rock next to the garage so you can do it right when you start Cid's quests and there is glass gemstone in the first area just pick up all items which most people do anyways
One trick I'd add is one to level up fast early in the game (as early as chapter 2). Take a break from the main quest and pill up side-quests without sleeping. Side quests are usually super easy and give you more xp than in battles. Then go to the beach place and spend 10,000 gils for a night in the fancy hotel which doubles your xp (earn the money with hunts). My biggest gig was pilling up 60,000xp, which got doubled. At chapter 5 I was already level 44. Other than that thanks so much man for the awesome tips. There is no way I was going to find out on my own about healcast and so many other advice you gave. Great video, please do one like that too for FFVII remake when it comes out!!
Clear, concise, direct, simple, helpful. Best tips video I've seen in a while. Now that I finally have a little bit of time to dive deep into this game, you have helped me avoid time wasting. Thank you.
"Hexilhorn" threw me off, awesome video though
Dude, u sound like one of the tv adverts on Rick and Morty! Its amazing!!!! Also thanks for the tips
Terrific video, looking to put this to use son, just ordered FF15 for the wife and i to jump into. Thanks so much for this video :).
Glad I could help, man. I recently streamed a return to Final Fantasy XV, and all of this still works. I was worried they'd changed a bunch of junk and made the guide obsolete.
@@@TheRestlessCorpse Sounds terrific :) glad it still holds up :)
2023 and just starting this game. Been playing FF since X, all of them except 14, and always a few years behind.
The combat on this one really had me scratching my head, but this is a very nice video. Thanks for this. Well done.
Do not play FFXIV, that will put you to sleep.
I have seen a lot of videos about FFXV, but this one is the best
Thank you =D
awesome video enjoyed it very much helped out a lot
Awesome video, i started playing again this amazing game, after more than 1 year break and i forgot EVERYTHING. Now, what are the conditions to do Arminger Chain?
Thanks man this is going to really help me in the game.
Glad I could help, bro. =D
ty so much this has already helped me. Changing to control type c is way better. Also, what are the chances the first fight you'd show would be those crabs next to the waterfall? That's what kept kicking my ass! lol.
Thanks for the tips. I will try type C. I hope my fighting gets better. Also Great video.
Thank you. =D
TheRestlessCorpse It been a couple days now and using most of your tips was definitely an improvement with my combat. Thanks again, really enjoying the game now. I made sure to share your video to my friends and I also subscribed to channel . I'll probably check out more of your videos later ,once I finish the game. 🙂
Definitey the best guide for new Final Fantasy players out there.
Great stuff dude! Started playing yesterday, loving the game.
Good luck, man, the game is great! It's got some storytelling issues, but nothing that ruins it, at least it didn't for me.
***** I noticed some of the pacing is kinda strange at the beginning, but like you said, it's nothing serious.
Well, SE assumes you've seen Kingsglaive (and if you haven't, you really should... it's amazing), so at the end of Chapter 1, it's very abridged, y'know? There's just a lot of characters and little mini-story arcs that don't get explained, but I think they're working on that in some big update soon.
I saw everything. Both Kingsglaive and the anime :) I guess I'll see how it goes, but non the less I love this game. I even find the fetch quests interesting xD It just feels like a game made for taking your time and enjoying everything
Great vid, thanks for all the tips. One question though, do you have any recommended order to tackle end-game content? Like which dungeons to beat to get weapons that make it easier to beat others etc. Thanks!
I did Pitioss Ruins first, though that was just because I was curious about the dungeon. But the Black Hood from Pitioss is pretty great. Other than that, I did the "A Menace Sleeps in..." quests in order of level, even though I was 99 at the time. Steyliff Grove will give you Balmung and Flayer, which are the best 1-handed sword, and the best polearm, but the dungeon takes hours, so it's really up to you.
I know it's been awhile. But I'm just starting to play after watching my lady for the last month. Great tips on combat that I was struggling with, and I consider myself a veteran gamer (SNES Super Mario Brothers) Most important I believe is your #1
Awesome video, this should have way more views than it has
+Donald Searfoss I'm terrible at promotion. =(
Very very helpful guide for beginners, thanks.
Awesome battle tip guide TheRestlessCorpse, Clear, concise, and easy to follow steps to make this game so much better. Hey man if you have any tips for PvP in elder scrolls online I would love to hear them LoL
Hit the other guy more than they hit you, I think? lol... Idunno, I don't play ESO.
:D okay no problem -
I fucking love Airdance.
No problem. Have fun. =D
this is the best XV video ever !!!!
but I have a question & it is maybe ridiculous
why aren't my chatacters moving when I open the skill/quest menu
how can I get them move :(
Good tips m8 ☺ i subbed greetings from Belgium
Excellent guide. All the juice in 1 video.
What a fantastic video! Super appreciative
+Alex Snart Hey, thanks man! I hope it helps you out.
Very insightful, thanks a bunch.
