    To upgrade properly you need to use 36 sturdy bones to instantly get to 3x multiplier then use as many high exp value parts as you can. 22 is a random number that has no real meaning.

    In chapter 11, when you're running like a rat through the cave tunnel system, my FAVORITE, utmost FAVORITE place to grind is near where the juggernaut is marching back and forth on his platform thingy. Run past the 3 ice bombs w/ 2 robots, down the stairs past the alcove with 3 more ice bombs, and you'll run into 2 rust muddies and 1 ice bomb. Their health is halved from fighting each other, and their re-spawn point is just a few paces back up the path. 5,600 CP per battle, they get so easy!

Also it statue is just like 5 feet aways and the two beasts in the NOrthern area, you have to go all the way up the hill, I used to fight the little cacutus that appears about every 5th time, just to fight boredom.

    Actually, I found that 36 Sturdy Bones (or some type of bone) will automatically give you a 3x multiplier. So that way you can use the components that give A LOT of exp. A LOT more. Hope this tip help anyone who read this.

    Best Grinding spots:
    The underground area place with the plants and stuff. You play as Lightning and Fang there when they notice Hope is in trouble. Just grind the Orions and PSICOM troops there.
    Hope's house.
    Nautilus.
    On Pulse in the field, fight the Megistotherian who is fighting the King Behemoth. 6600 CP!
    In Orphan's Cradle, continue to fight Wladislaus. 32,000 CP!
    If you have the power, fight a Long Gui. 100,000 CP plus Trapezohedrons for Ultimate Weapon catalysts!

  • @itissasa
    @itissasa 12 лет назад +6

    You can buy 36 Sturdy Bones for around 8000, use all 36 on a basic level weapon and it immediately gives you a x3 multiplier bonus. After that, I recommend using as many particle accelerators as you have at once to fully upgrade it. That's the most efficient way I've upgraded yet. There's no need to sell or go on wasting away gil on other stuff that can't get you as high of a multiplier...

  • @Rezuvious

    its alot better and smarter to wait till crankshafts become available if you wanna upgrade early on. crankshafts =645 at 3x multiplier turbojet =636 at 3x multiplier thye both cost 840gil. lvling up in ff13 is the same as the grid sphere from ff10 except without the spheres

    also before the apartment when hope and snow are on the way there just before you fight ushumgal subjugator the first time there is a place where you fight 3 aerial snipers if you stand right where you first enter their encounter area and then take a few steps back they respawn they have a much higher chance of dropping incentive chips takes like 30 minutes for 10 instead of like 3 hours in the apartment and once you upgrade hope and snows equipment to max the fighters are super easy it is feasible to get enough chips to give everyone fully upgraded first level equipment here in less time than upgrading one person in the apartment

Start with syn/syn/syn to buff up, switch to com/rav/rav for one round, switch to sab/sab/rav to debuff juggernaut, switch to com/med/med if need be otherwise switch to rav/rav/rav to stagger, then when percentage seems high enough com/com/com to finish.

    1st way - early farm, farm when soldiers come in Hope's home
    2nd way - post game farm.Must have Collector Catalog and Connoisseur Catalog equipped, at least 3 roles 5lvl (every char.) Go to Leviathan Plaza (Eden) and find Atamantoise, kill it go to gate and come back for resp.I kill about 18Atamantoise per hour, it's about 8-10platinum ingot (it's 8 x 150 000gil),I think it's not bad at all :)

Also on Gran Pulse, you can go to the mines, where the destination leads. the enemies are stupid and easily caught off gaurd, while also yielding 2-5 thousand CP per battle. thank you for reading :)

    I think this is because you don't get to control all aspects of the battle. The medic heals status rather than hp for example. You cannot use summons as much, retry option removes the "need to win," the mp system is no longer in use. However, I believe that some people miss the point of all this. The AI is very fast at healing and casting spells, summons are a treat because they are rare, retry option saves time, the new system means you cannot run out of spells. I love all this and more!!!

    The best Crystogen Point farming place I found was the 2nd one he mentioned 5:40 You'll most likely fight them Preemptively. I have Lightning, Hope and Sahz as Com-Rav-Rav. When battle starts, I have my default to 'Abilities' instead of 'Auto-Battle' to save time, then quickly go and use two 'Blitz'. Two Blitz will be enough to Stagger them. Keep repeating Blitz on them while the other two Ravager them dead. This'll take probably around 10 seconds to kill. Its pretty awesome.

    Also when I first get to Pulse, I get a back attack on the King Behemoth, you get instant stagger, then switch to Aggression and he goes down in less then a minute for a cool 4k cp. Do this over and over till you have maxed out your regular roles.
    On a side note, it is entirely possible to beat Adamantoise if you have Vanille's Death attack, for a whopping 40k CP you cant really go wrong.

    The best spot for pulse is to do all the mission available before moving on (missions 1-17) and then after that you'll be able to fight the behemoth king and the other big enemy with ease. The catch to them is that you always get a pre-emptive strike on them.

  • @HaVoKiZSiK
    @HaVoKiZSiK 13 лет назад

    The behemoth and the wolf thing are probably the easiest way to get CP. You can farm Atticus in Orphan's cradle with deceptisol+preemptive strike, but after you beat the game you can't return to that location. I also highly recommend you get the growth egg as soon as possible. Just give Vanille the upgraded version of the belladonna wand thing, and cast death as fast as you can. Your party needs to have at least 5000 hp and defensive equipment to survive several hits.

  • @silvana2727

    @KillyWildlands Try on the palamicia once you get to the main hallway. If you run all the way down and through the door, then back all the way to the air deck you can get 7k per run, along with lots of incentive chips. It will make sense once you get there.

  • @y2kboy145
    @y2kboy145 13 лет назад

    @SpeedDaMusicUp Once you complete it, there are a few movies then it ask you to save and you go back to the main menu. You then load the save and your back in orphans cradle with the boss defeated, but the mission to beat the boss again is still there but you don't have to do it. The Crystarium is now expanded to it's ultimate Level 10, you will need to do much CP farming to max it all. Good CP farming is from the adamtoise, cast haste or use shrouds then go to summon eidolon, debuff it then

  • @gigas81
    @gigas81 13 лет назад

    Once you get the Catalogs its easier to get components. However, the efficient way to gather a ton of components is to buy them so get as many gold nuggets, incentive chips, moogle puppets, cactuar dolls etc. as possible because there isn't any other way. Yeah it sucks they way they put in the upgrade system but whats done is done, eh?

    It really depends on what you're trying up upgrade. Particle Accelerators cost 10000 gil and gives you 4800 EXP. However, if you happen to have a lot of gil to spare (which I didn't) then you can buy an Ultracompact Reactor for 50000 gil and it gives you 40000 EXP. I think if you buy... it was under the R&D Depot?? Juggernauts rarely drop particle accelerators, equip lots of item scavengers/catalogues if you want to try it out. buying is the only way to get the ultracompact reactor.

    The robot guys in Malhabra or whatever its called at the beginning of the zone are easy and give 2-3k per battle depending on the number of bots. If you have Thundega it makes it way easier especially with Hope and Vanille. 3 battles turn around 1 battle and do it all again a good 10k CP per run through, only downside is the drops arent the best.

  • @MercuryChild
    @MercuryChild 10 лет назад

    • @okykhadifa8363
      @okykhadifa8363 10 лет назад

      hey nightfall, your weapon choices are not too bad but it just depends on what you want with your characters. personally for me I had
      Lightning ===> Axis Blade since she is mainly a rav for me, the atb charge is great
      Sazh ===> vega 42's is good for an all around or rigels if you want him to be a commando
      Snow ===> Paladin since he is only good as a sentinel, he gets outclassed in every other role and Fang makes a decent sentinel
      Hope ===> Hawkeye I think is the best since its magic stats are the highest when maxed out and upgraded
      Vanielle ===> Belladona wand is great as a saboteur, if your planning on farming trapezhoids using her death ability this is the ideal weapon. healers rod is also good if you want to use her as a medic
      Fang ===>Taming Pole is best even with the stagger lock ability she wont need it since shes primarily a commando/sent, you have the other 2 chars doing the staggering since fang is not the best ravager

    • @MercuryChild
      @MercuryChild 10 лет назад

      Oky Khadifa
      I really wanted a well rounded party with more members being able to fill in for a diverse set of roles rather than so and so is physical while others are magic especially for Lighting. I never use the Sentinel class at all, and I don't see that as a major flaw in my battle strategy since I've built everyone to either be a massive damage dealer or healer...but I'm not opposed to hearing why you think I need a Sentinel in my party.
      Sahz I understand is a syngerist and a damn good one, but once the buffs are cast I figured I need him to be doing something. I just want to avoid as many paradigm shifts as possible since it eats up time and slows down the fight, yet I understand it's a key gameplay mechanic the game was built on. The way I see it the stronger I get, the more I can unapologetically get away by cutting corners (i.e. go in guns a blazing to end a fight faster and therefore be efficient).
      Hope we agree on.
      Vanielle I'm not sure what you mean about her Belladonna wand making her a better Saboteur, because like syngerist I would only use it in bigger boss fights. I'll use her summon though to farm trapezhoids and cast death when it's down; this works about 30% of the time. My goal is to have a pure endgame team not a situational one for farming.
      I think I could change my decision on Fang and give her the staggerlock weapon with high attack since I've seen how little commander contributes to a gauge.

    • @kpernod30
      @kpernod30 9 лет назад

      I've played through this game at least 15 times and each playthrough I use different weapons and accessories. My first couple playthroughs I used Lightning's Gladius->Helter Skelter->Omega Weapon, Hope's Hawkeye -> Eagletalon -> Nue, and Fang's Bladed Lance -> Glaive -> Kain's Lance. Then I started using Vanille instead of Hope. She's got higher HP and her saboteur role is better than Hope's Synergist one. So you could create a Paradigm of Lightning as a Ravager, Vanille as a Saboteur and Fang as a Commando and pretty much beat any foe in the game pretty easily. Use Vanille's Belladonna Wand, it improves her saboteur role immensely. Especially later in the game. If you want to really run up an enemy chain gauge quickly use Lightning's Edged Carbine->Razor Carbine->Omega Weapon. It's magic stat when upgraded through lvl 61 is 448. Combined with Vanille/Hope's magic based character you can stagger enemies lightening quick. Switch to Relentless Assault once they're staggered and let Fang cut them to pieces.

However, later on based on your enemies, switching your party around to take full advantage of their distinct abilities might be in your best interest.

      Do not dismantle weapons, sell them.
      You can upgrade the base waepons, at tier 1 they're one of the cheapest to upgrade (Airwing is the only exception, it's not Hope's first weapon, Ninurta is).

    very interesting video. im on chapter eight at the moment i think and this video has come in handy as far as the incentive chip and amusement park grinding. though ive seen better upgrading techniques on other videos. i still have yet to actually upgrade any weapon.

    @FireEmblemMaster714 12 лет назад

    he never mentioned some of the best spots. adamantoise in eden. Behemoth and other wolf thing fighting outside Mah'habara. And the growth egg is essential. Though Hope's house actually seemed like a good plan, a lot of incentive chips to be gotten there. Shame I missed it.

    Just saying - don't do what this guy did upgrading - use enough hides, bones, etc for x3 bonus before u use stuff. Also when u get to pulse dont fight birdies and wolves - go straigth through pulse (struggle past the behemoth near exit) and grind in the cave, u get about 20k running up and down one of the paths

    Start stagger gauge with com or sab then use rav to fill. Then use com or sab to slow drain on gauge if needs be. If you start with the gauge with a rav it tends to drain away very quickly; not helpful at all. Let me know how you get on, good luck and I hope I've helped you!

  • @KingShrykull92
    @KingShrykull92 13 лет назад

    Ok, honestly...you don't need to grind that much. Assuming you got the game just for the story and not for 100%'ing the whole thing. I completed this and I only grinded for about 30 minutes total. You just need to take the right approach when it comes to battling enemies. And besides, its more fun that way. :) If you really wanna get as much CP as possible, get the growth egg first. ;)

  • @joshuastuder83
    @joshuastuder83 11 лет назад

    You gotta use those components. its different ones for weapons armor and what not. Cobalite, Scaralite, millerite, perovskite, Mnar stone, adamanatite, dark matter,Rhodochrosite, Trapezohedron and uraninite are what you use to transform shit. just depends on what your transforming as to which one you would use

    @theph3n0m200 Honestly, it's not great to farm until you get the growth egg. (Got from mission 55, and it's possible to get it as soon as you complete chapter 11). If you need CP to advance the storyline, then I suggest doing as many missions you can you bear to withstand right now for three reasons:
    1) CP
    2) They open up teleport C'eith stones.
    3) If you're going for the last trophy, then, well, having to do 64 missions back to back and getting 5 stars can be infuriating, to say the least.

    Really a whole day farming for the level 4 role crystals? You can do that a lot easier by farming the Megistotherian fighting with the Behemoth King. You can get about 200000 CP an hour just after reaching ch 11 which quickly increases to 330000/hour as you unlock more stat crystals

    All T2 weapons take Trapezohedrons to upgrade...they cost ALOT. So you are better off farming them post-game. The famed Adamantoise/Long Gui drop them.

    @bloemen34
    The Behemoth King is really easy even if you just got to Gran Pulse, I leveled up a bit with the wolves and Flans, mainly building up my Strength on the Crystarium, then engage the Behemoth with a COM/RAV/RAV party or something (preferable Lightning, Snow and Fang since they have the highest attack, the idea is to Preemptive Strike him so you can stagger him in 5 seconds, then switch to COM/COM/COM and with Launch, Smite and Scourge it shouldn't be hard, before he transforms.
