Yeah, I got bite by them once. I learn the hard way that I am allergic to them. I kill them on site, only to hear that the stench of a dead wasp draws more wasps. I am stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Thats because monsters fiends are super duper strong in the Areana, i do not recomend fighting any monsters in the Areana untill you are close to maxing out every ones stats or you will loose every time
@Ben Baxter once they're maxed out with their super weapons every attack including magic will do 99999 damage to most enemies. As a result speed wise (for you) it ends up being more efficient just to mash attack
I don’t know, I think the affinity with the Eon still counts. My Yojimbo wouldn’t even spit on the ground for 1 gil. Chance are the second time I give him 1 gil he performs Zanmato on me.
There is a complex math formula for getting your chances high for zanmato. I have 100% rate with mine so far. Every time I've summoned him he's done zanmato as his first and only attack. The stat nerds will say there are like 6 different figures as to what will raise the chances of zanmato. Basically. Pay him at least 1/5 of what you have in the bank and never let him die. He's never seen less than 100k from me.
@@Quantum- True. For him to rise the affinity you must first make the contract with him for the highest price! And then never let him die! Second try to make him always use Wakizashi or Kosuka the first one rise affinity by 4 and kosuka by 3. Daigoro decrese these numbers by 4 and Zanmato rise it by 10! So there you have it!
its just an option. if you dont feel like maxing you characters out and crafting the right armours for the big fights then ya yojimbo is the way to go. im in it for about 190hrs
reaper leviathan I couldn’t get anima because dumb oh me guess what I forgot the first secret at the very first temple 🤦🏻♂️. However I built up a lot of money and threw it all to kill sin. After that I got yojimbo and with him I killed the dark aeon to get back to first temple to get anima
@@TriableChain552 So why didn't you go back to the 1st Temple in Besaid and do the Cloister of Trials again?? You was able to for most parts of the game. There was no "Points of No Return" not until real late in the game.
@@GRIMLOCK07 I couldn’t go back because I didn’t know that I forgot the first temple until it was to late. If I noticed it earlier in the game I would of immediately went back but since I didn’t the dark aeon was there.
I personally prefer Odin. Guaranteed insta-kill to non-bosses with Zantetsuken, and in 8 after Seifer kills Odin, Gilgamesh replaces him and can even show up in boss fights and potentially one-shot them with Zantetsuken. To me, Yojimbo is just a money-hungry Odin knockoff. :P Don't get me wrong, I like Yojimbo, I just would much rather have had Odin instead.
Actually, she is the strongest physic char when max. Iirc, her ultimate hidden bonus is bonus dam when high mp( tidus is high hp, aaron is low hp blah blah). And in this game, we can teach every skill to anyone we want. But iirc again, when max stat, everyone quick hit with limit break always deal 99999. So hidden bonus only show when you are not max( onthe farming way!)
Thanks man I did it actually. Before I recruited Yojimbo I pay him 9M Gil instead of 250K. Now I use your strategy 1, 1, 2 & 21000 gil. It works. Everytime Yuna summon just pay Yojimbo 21k gil and he does Zanmato all the time. Sometimes it's free Zanmato at the start of battle.
Dude, I remember one time in Final Fantasy XII, when I was at the Pharos, and there is a part in that dungeon where you have to choose to abandon temporarily one among the following capacities: - Attacking; - Casting Magic; - Using Techniques; - Using Items; or - Using the map. Then I though "Well, my standard tactic relies on buffing everyone and curing everyone with magic, then replenishing MP using Charge [a Technique], and appealing to items when everything goes wrong.". Also, I get totally lost without the map, so I ended up sacrificing Attack. Then there was a boss fight, a humanoid tiger thing, and it was very overpowered. I reached it with basically no MP, since I had been defeating every enemy on the way using Black Magic, so I kept having to use Charge all the time with everyone, because I had no Ethers or Elixirs. The party was constantly dying, and everything was bad, and the thing was immune to most Techniques (including, I think, 1000 Needles) and to all status effects, so I thought "Damn, I can't just Attack it, because I'm stupid and just gave it up like it was nothing.". The only way I found to kill it was using Gil Toss. I constantly tossed 9999 Gil at the thing, until it died when more than half of my economy had already gone away. It was so fucking absurd I just laughed and brushed it off. Then later I found something really worth buying and really expensive, then I got sad.
@@jinclay4354 bro, go to the clan Centurio or whatever and tell Montblanc about your rank. Then go to the clan shop in the bazaar. They sell items based on your rank. they start selling ethers. Total lifesaver
It's more complicated than that, it depend from how many you gave him the first time you summon, how many you gave him each time, if you let him die or recall.
In the PS2 version I gave him so much Gil and he never used it once. In the HD remake he spammed the shit out of it. To the point where I didn't want him using it anymore.
Yep. The original ps2 version for the American version had a much lower odds of him doing his Zanmato. It was only until the international version was introduced that they raised the odds of him performing it. Unsure if the remake goes off of the international formula or the original Japanese version which also had a higher chance of performing the attack.
@@cyanimation1605 aaand then you were kinda annoyed that you skipped all the challenges in the game and had to start all over. At least that was what I did..
when i was 10 i killed dark valefor with my underpowered characters, i tried so many times and used a lot of strategy, i won in the end, it was so funny :)
Dude same with dark bahamut I was getting the sun sigil and that man popped up and I'm like😐so he smacks me with my 2 digit stat characters and then I but yojimbo and got zanmato
Everytime from start screen, to make him do automatic wakizashi. If your Yojimbo does not do it, you need to fight couple random fights to just make him happy (paying him but not too much) like 1k per fight.
josibom I had an trophy issue myself that's why I came up with this but yeah if you don't wanna do it the hard way the best way and time you should need to use this is for late game for beating the Dark aeons / nemesis / penance.
I remember that it was all dependant by his affinity with you and a math calculation. At the end I ended up having him doing zamnato on summon 100% of the time. I'm talking about ps2 version. I did it everytime on every playthrough, worked same way. I stopped paying a single gil to him basically.
My strategy was to use him frequently and give him little amounts of money like 1000 Gil EVERY Time. And when I wanted him to do Zanmatou I gave him 10000. He did it everytime. I guess because it was more than his usual payment
He doesn't do the sword move automatically after a loaded game from my experience. Is it guaranteed that he'll do it automatically or no? I always find giving him 10k increases the chances of him doing his overdrive. From my experience, anyways. He's always done it in 1-5 turns. But against Dark Aeons, 1/5 chances will get you killed.
Just my experience, loaded a game, went into battle in calm lands, summoned Yo Jimbo and he automatically did Wakizashi. Went into another battle, summoned him again, dismissed him. Went into Penance battle, grand summoned him, paid 111,111 and he did Zanmato. His first move on your load will determine how and when he'll use Zanmato.
I know this is a super old vid and comment, but I'm replaying the game and needed to zanmoto dark bahamut because I, like an idiot, forgot to grab the crest for Titus celestial weapon. I found this video, and could not get it to work like he said in the video at any point. I checked the comments to see if it was just me, and I'm glad I did, because this strat you gave worked perfectly!
How does that save thing work, do you have to keep loading up till he does it, or can you do it like this at any point he does it automatically then do it, or do you have to do it from a save? Not really understanding the depends on the load thing
I deleted the Patch and tried again. This technique does not work, I never get Yojimbo to do Wakisashi at the start of the battle. Still, when he rabdonly start by doing so, you can pay him 1$ and he's gonna Zanmato, that's my experience with this.
so basically it depends if he does the wakizashi first, but does he have to do 3 attacks after paying him each time in one battle before doing the guaranteed zanmato on the next one? or can it be done on multiple battles with weak enemies as well?
sorry for the late rep, this will work only the first time when u fighting against dark yojimbo.. cuz u gotta beat him 5 times in row ( saving or leaving the dungeon will reset the "hunt of dark yojimbo"
ok dude no worries thanks for replying,, so other than grinding as much as possible with awesome equipment, there's really no other alternative strategy to beat dark yojimbo 5 times in a row with zanmato?
well i guess its time to grind again then.. only managed to zanmato dark yojimbo in the first 2 battles, then tried the fiend battles reappearing trick in the cave to repeat the preparation process in the hope that i can repeat zanmato's use in the next few dark yojimbos. Grinding it is then lol thanks dude..
When I wanted that Yojimbo do Zanmato, I always payed him 99999 Gil. Every Battle who I did this he done Zanmato. I thought that couldnt work every time, but I he did it every time. In the end fight against Jekt I did it also and I got him in 2 mins :D. Maybe I had much of luck xD or only enought money xD
Years ago... I remember being lucky at the penance with Yojimbo getting a smooth Zanmato at first try.. Days later my mum had accidentally overwritten my savefile and I had to start over from scratch :(
@@deathstar6998 the battle is extremly easy when you use trio of 9999 and dont let his arms attack, get some extra defence from armor so he doesnt kill you with his only 2 attacks that are not even powerful, you must have auto-potion on 3 of characters you want to use( i suggest rikku, wakka and tidus or lulu), you will win the battle in no time, i discovered this when i was 9 so you know that it is easy
I seriously just got Yojimbo to perform Zanmato for the first time ever lol oddly enough I did not use this video's guide.......I basically paid Yojimbo 10,000 gil 3 times in a row he used Wakizashi 3 times then on the 4th try he performed Zanmato.......was that just dumb luck? or did I stumble upon something ? lol
Well I was trying to do this method for penance and the 1g, 1g, 2g trick doesn't work for me and I don't get auto wakzashi at the begining. So against hornet I paid yojimbo 10,000 does wakizashi, paid 10,000 again does wazizashi, paid 10,001 does wakizashi. Dismissed him went to fight penance straight away grand summoned yojimbo paid him 21,000 and zanmato first time happy days! Hope this helps someone struggling with penance like I was.
How much Gil is needed for Zanmato? The base motivation (BM) according to how much he has been paid. The lowest base motivation is 0 if he is paid 1-3 gil and the highest is 112 if he is paid at least 536,870,912 gil. And that is how you dont waste so many turns using kozuka and stuff
Honestly....The secret of Yojimbo to use Zanmato is trust. The easiest way to "tame" /him wasn't money. It's TRUST. Use him more and more often with small ammount of gills... and then eventually just give random money, like 1 or 2 gils and he'll do his best movement more often aka Zanmato for you :)
I've got him to a pretty high level of trust, and on enemies about zanmato level 2 he does it most of the time. Though I doubt I could get him to do it to sin :(. I am one of those people that ised the like 5 page long yojimbo equation breakdown page. And while I can't control the random number generated, everything else is pretty easy.
paul bradley years ago i thought the same thing but it's not because one time when i was playing on ps2 ffx i used yojimbo i paid him well and he did daigoro 🙁 this attack is the weakest and i was wondering why he did this and i red you must use him often to do zanmato eventually....i see it now on ps4 version i use him often and he did in a battle of common monsters i paid him he used wakizashi and when my turn came by himself used zanmato
If he uses daigoro load the game (decreases trust) Use him often and pay usually 50 percent more Gil than you have, Don't let him die in battle After all that then 90% zanmato. Took this straight from the prima guide for the PS2 version
I use him lots of times and not letting him die in any fight and pay like 1k~9999, then after a while he does Zanmato very often, so often that I even slayed ALL Dark Yojimbos by using Yojimbo w/ crazy Zanmatos
Basically EA as a samurai.
That made me laugh....
Omg hahahaha
This joke is underappreciated

Turns out you don’t need the final summoning, you just need a wealthy backer to beat Sin.

Dude, I remember one time in Final Fantasy XII, when I was at the Pharos, and there is a part in that dungeon where you have to choose to abandon temporarily one among the following capacities:
- Attacking;
- Casting Magic;
- Using Techniques;
- Using Items; or
- Using the map.
Then I though "Well, my standard tactic relies on buffing everyone and curing everyone with magic, then replenishing MP using Charge [a Technique], and appealing to items when everything goes wrong.". Also, I get totally lost without the map, so I ended up sacrificing Attack.
Then there was a boss fight, a humanoid tiger thing, and it was very overpowered. I reached it with basically no MP, since I had been defeating every enemy on the way using Black Magic, so I kept having to use Charge all the time with everyone, because I had no Ethers or Elixirs. The party was constantly dying, and everything was bad, and the thing was immune to most Techniques (including, I think, 1000 Needles) and to all status effects, so I thought "Damn, I can't just Attack it, because I'm stupid and just gave it up like it was nothing.". The only way I found to kill it was using Gil Toss. I constantly tossed 9999 Gil at the thing, until it died when more than half of my economy had already gone away.

That is just AHHHH!!!!!! MAZING!!!!!!!!!
Hi does this work if you followed that order of attacks in separate battles?
This only works if he’s up against one enemy. He won’t do the second Kozuka.
Yojimbo is one of the coolest motherflowers in all of anything
Definitely a great thing to know for facing the Dark Aeons later in the game.
Worked for me thx bro

I load a saved game and summon him and yojimbo doesn’t automatically do wakizashi, is there something I’m doing wrong?
Sounds amazing! at the moment, my guy doesnt do anything when he is summoned. Will I keep paying him 1k and trying till he does?
Was this patched or something? He never attacks automatically when summoned and he does other random attacks with his dog when I pay him
so basically it depends if he does the wakizashi first, but does he have to do 3 attacks after paying him each time in one battle before doing the guaranteed zanmato on the next one? or can it be done on multiple battles with weak enemies as well?

OMFG......ALL THESE YEARS AND I NEVER KNEW THAAAAAT LMAO
I was trying this to defeat Sinh, I save the game but doesn't make zanmato in automatic, does it work like that too?
1 , 1 , 2 , 21000 got it

Years ago...
I remember being lucky at the penance with Yojimbo getting a smooth Zanmato at first try..
Days later my mum had accidentally overwritten my savefile and I had to start over from scratch :(
ColdMystery good I’m glad, how dare you zanmato penance! It’s the ultimate challenge!
FifaScythi How dare you make us sit for five hours trying to beat penance your an asshole
@@deathstar6998 the battle is extremly easy when you use trio of 9999 and dont let his arms attack, get some extra defence from armor so he doesnt kill you with his only 2 attacks that are not even powerful, you must have auto-potion on 3 of characters you want to use( i suggest rikku, wakka and tidus or lulu), you will win the battle in no time, i discovered this when i was 9 so you know that it is easy
My go to strategy is to never let him die. Until post game then, I just need to pay him 1001 Gil every time and he never did not use Zanmato
Just tried this an it actually works. Just fyi the attacks you said he’d do weren’t the exact same for me but in the end it worked still
Just tried saving the final move. Didn’t work on Braska’s final aeon but worked on some random mobs so it’s not 100%
I seriously just got Yojimbo to perform Zanmato for the first time ever lol oddly enough I did not use this video's guide.......I basically paid Yojimbo 10,000 gil 3 times in a row he used Wakizashi 3 times then on the 4th try he performed Zanmato.......was that just dumb luck? or did I stumble upon something ? lol
You're a fuvking genius!
How do you get to eliminate these monsters and where ? For gil and spheres
I usually pay him some short amount of gil. Mostly one or a little more and he does Zanmato xD
Holly cow a 1 hit kill😲
finally a way to farm dark yojimbo for 21004 guil ^^ Tyvm!
Wakizashi,daigorou...sure...
Oh man you should have done it to penance! :D
Well I was trying to do this method for penance and the 1g, 1g, 2g trick doesn't work for me and I don't get auto wakzashi at the begining. So against hornet I paid yojimbo 10,000 does wakizashi, paid 10,000 again does wazizashi, paid 10,001 does wakizashi. Dismissed him went to fight penance straight away grand summoned yojimbo paid him 21,000 and zanmato first time happy days! Hope this helps someone struggling with penance like I was.
pay yojimbo 7777 in overdrive and that's it
lol it works dude
Ale Castillo Not for me tho
Ale Castillo omg it totally works for me too! Whooped Dark Bahamut's ass painlessly. Now I can get Tidus' celestial weapon! Thanks so much!
omg it worked! thank you so much!!!!!!!
Ale Castillo I just killed nemesis with this you are the man
How much Gil is needed for Zanmato?
The base motivation (BM) according to how much he has been paid. The lowest base motivation is 0 if he is paid 1-3 gil and the highest is 112 if he is paid at least 536,870,912 gil. And that is how you dont waste so many turns using kozuka and stuff
Honestly....The secret of Yojimbo to use Zanmato is trust. The easiest way to "tame" /him wasn't money. It's TRUST. Use him more and more often with small ammount of gills... and then eventually just give random money, like 1 or 2 gils and he'll do his best movement more often aka Zanmato for you :)
true talk :)
Omi Gwiyomi It's definitely money. I paid him over half of what I had and he did it everytime. Greed is what fuels him... GREED! lol!
paul bradley well he's a mercenary samurai after all ;)
I've got him to a pretty high level of trust, and on enemies about zanmato level 2 he does it most of the time. Though I doubt I could get him to do it to sin :(. I am one of those people that ised the like 5 page long yojimbo equation breakdown page. And while I can't control the random number generated, everything else is pretty easy.
paul bradley years ago i thought the same thing but it's not because one time when i was playing on ps2 ffx i used yojimbo i paid him well and he did daigoro 🙁 this attack is the weakest and i was wondering why he did this and i red you must use him often to do zanmato eventually....i see it now on ps4 version i use him often and he did in a battle of common monsters i paid him he used wakizashi and when my turn came by himself used zanmato
Hmm, don't think it worked for me....
I know that when he bows a bit then he does Zanmato but when he does exactly is beyond my knowledge tbh)
Does this work on final fantasy x international on original ps2?
If he uses daigoro load the game (decreases trust)
Use him often and pay usually 50 percent more Gil than you have,
Don't let him die in battle
After all that then 90% zanmato.
Took this straight from the prima guide for the PS2 version
Does all of that need to happen in one battle or can it happen over multiple?

2024, can confirm, it does work. Thank you.💪
How to do to the Wakaziashi as he's summoned?
Just tried on one eye and first 4 steps was in order but he didn’t do zanmato
Yo, Jimbo.
As far as I know he will do zamato everytime if u give him the half Gil of his hp.
Bad-ass. (I'm gonna have to use this for those bastard dark aeons.)
I'll keep this strat in mind. This will make the secret bosses a lot easier if I can't beat them on my own.
The dark aeons are absolutely brutal. I could only do dark Valefor and dark Ifrit without using Zanmato. I gave up and Yojimbo sliced the rest
The godfather of microtransactions
Thanks it worked for Dark Valefor!!!!!!!
i eventually got him to do auto wakizashi, and directly after, I gave him 1 gil and got zanmato
This definitely didn’t work for me tbh
HOLY SHIT!
Second time I ever used him was against Seymour 3. Literally One-Shotted him. I paid him 100'000 gil.
I use him lots of times and not letting him die in any fight and pay like 1k~9999, then after a while he does Zanmato very often, so often that I even slayed ALL Dark Yojimbos by using Yojimbo w/ crazy Zanmatos
Even Samurais gotta make a living somehow
One time I was playing and executed zanmato before I paid him. I keep trying to figure how to get him to do that again
