Late to the party here but one thing that helped me keep my sanity doing the saves is that you don't have to keep running to the crystal then away from the crystal. Stay next to the crystal and use Square to open the menu to heal yourself and use Cross (X) to interact with the crystal for MP. This makes it easier to do it in 4x speed.
Great walkthrough, thank you. I got three of these swords for my party. I did take me a couple of tries at first. I forgot to turn off gambits, and also forgot to dispel the buffs on my character. Once I remembered those two things, it worked perfectly. I was lucky enough to only spend a couple of minutes on each Reks portion getting the 97/88/86 combo.
Just started to play, going for the good old min max, trying to get all the trophies. Still works as of March 10th, 2024. Thank you for all your videos, especially the mega shield this pairs with and walkthroughs on this.
@@FuzzfingerGaming hey fuzz, I have a question. The Seitengrat worked for me but somehow this didn't. Does the brawler ability mess up my chances? All my chars have their licenseboards maxed. I've done everything as you said.
@@FuzzfingerGaming I have the switch version and can't get any of the methods to get this or seitengrat to work. am thusfar getting the impression that these exploits wont work anymore. Do you know if there is another method that works for the switch version?
It's 12/22/24, I just did it on PS5. It felt like I was going crazy on the Reks part, but I eventually got the numbers in the right order, and everything worked.
Thank you so much for your clear instructions!!! I was able to get one; I had tried getting the bow a month ago but gave up after many tries. This sword was much easier to get.
mdablemont same but go watch his version 2 video for the bow it does work. I gave up a month ago thinking youtubers are just lucky or hacking but his method guarantees it.
100% work! I hope this trick will work also for Black Mask in Cerobi Steppe. I need one more, i got mine from Bazaar and the second in the Paros' chests. Thank you for this video! Still useful after all this time ^^
It actually worked, this, the invisible shield, invisible bow, it all worked. Thank you so much man, I've been watching alot of your ff12 vids recently and enjoy the guides alot, lol I'll watch the hunts to help find em but then I want to beat em by myself so I have you vid playing in background while I'm fighting the hunt and you fighting the hunt
I had to dispel prior to manipulating the RNG. Got a knot of rust on the first try, then Gil a second time. Third time is a charm and I got the Great Trango 😁🙌
la great Trango se saca si tu sacaste los 6 cofres que sólo salen una sola vez en esta sección,rienes 10℅ que aparezca el cofre t tienes otro 10 % que salga la great Trango,lo mismo pasa en muchos niveles de toda ivalice hay 12 cofres ocultos invisibles todos ellos son de prueba
It finally worked. The only difference from what I can tell is that I got the 97, 88, 86 combo without having to go to the save crystal in between to replenish my MP. I got all three in one “cycle”.
No matter what I do, the megaelixir doesnt spawn? maybe i picked it up at an earlier stage?...do i keep running in and out of rooms till it spawns again?
I have done what the vid and cannot get it. The only thing different is I grabbed the megaelixir awhile back in the game. I wanna get this sword but all I get is Gil or knot of rust. I even tried with and without diamand bracket.
Actually, the official strategy guide from Primagames states that the chest itself has a 40% spawn chance and with the Diamond Armlet equipped, it has 5% chance of containing the sword. Don’t know if the guide made an error there but if it’s correct, then the odds aren’t as low as 1/10000..
As of October 2020 this is still working and I think exploiting this actually increases the chance of the the ACTUAL great Trango chest spawning considering it literally spawned after I walked in and out of the room to auto save the progress for this. So be sure to be on the lookout for that.
Thank you very much! Great Trango it's mine now! And this for your good guide! Sorry for bad english but I'm italian ... Ahaha. Thank you again man. :)
Finally got it to work as of 07/28/2020. The hard part was the cure sequence, I read in the comments hit 3 or 5 times and that didn’t work, it took me an hour. I tried not hitting and it worked within a minute of cure casting. Try what will work for you I guess.
As of January 22nd 2021 this still works. Getting the reks healing sequence is not that hard it will take about 5 to 7 refreshes at the save crystal with reks to get the heal numbers required , next for those that dont understand hitting yourself for 0 damage pushes you down the RNG list by 10 spots. 4 times speed with reks as well it should take you about 5 minutes max to hit the numbers. the reks numbers are for the chest to spawn hit yourself cure you will get it 100%
What's better to have? This sword and the shield or the seitengrat? You can't have the shield and the bow due to the arrows taking the off-hand item. I got the Seitengrat for the whole party and it does one shot everything outside of bosses and the evade is quite high, but the shield has MAX evade for magic and regular.... I'm conflicted on what gear to be using as well.
Does this still work on steam version of zodiac age? I cannot get 97 88 86 to show up. Have been trying for hours. I put my first 3 cure numbers in a cure list checker to see where my sequence is and it is over 1k even when I restart the game.
One small detail how i messed up once...i had bubble on Ashe,did the kick then cured,gambit was ON and she cast bubble because hp went down,opened the chest and got 3gil...turn off your gambits just in case:)
Hi FuzzFinger --been following a lot of your amazing videos for FF12 TZA--ultra helpful so thank you! I was wondering if you could please provide the link to the video where you explore the Pharos Subterra? I'm afraid I've searched the FF12 playlist several times and can't locate it. Thanks!
great! Works perfectly :) one thing though, you can actually kill magick pot whithout having an elixir. This is not recommended though, because it has very powerful magick attacks like flare and that can easly kill you. You will need a very high magick avade, the Shield Gendarme is recommended. On top of that you can't hit it With normal attacks only tecknicks i think so a good gambit is foe nearest visible telekinesis on Three characters. Remember dont do this at first encounter in Pharos, wait till Your high Level if fighting magick pot this way.
Here after getting the Wyrmhero blade, and it went to Basch, :). This one is going to vaan. I never got the wyrmhero blade in the original ps2 game, but it was somewhat easily accessible in the remastered in level 50 of the trial mode. I wanted to give Basch, Vossler's blade, but plot points had other plans and threw it in the trash.
Doesnt work for me at all no bluffs gambits off did everything I never get those numbers in cure I'm also on xbox so idk if that matters but every time I try I dont get those numbers as far as the bow I did get one but not doing this I just got on the ship walked up stairs and pumped into something invisible and it was the bow I didnt even have diamond armlet on when I got it so idk I dont get it but I give up trying going to do it the "hard" way in and out of the door till I get it

Got 3 of them to go with my 3 Seitengrats! Still works on 1/1/20!
Thanks-a-million Fuzz!!
I got 6 Great Trango, 6 Seitengrat and 6 Gendarme.

Thanks so much, Fuzz! 100% reliable as always! Still works as of 26th of January, 2019! (If anyone's still playing that is lol)
Thanks Michael, glad this helped :)

@@FuzzfingerGaming okay, I've found my mistake. Didn't turn off gambits and didn't dispel my buffs. Yaaay :D
I still playing. Just arrive at this area

Still works as of May 24 2020 HAHA
Yeah videos helped with outfitting my party with gear that I could only imagine, can't wait to have this, the invisible shield, and ribbons
What’s a reeks save ?
Just got 2 in a row!!! Wow, this is for sure my day))) (for 2nd i simply reenter the room)
Used the method as shown exactly : worked great the first attempt. Thanks mate! and kudos to you for your great instructional videos
It still works I did exactly how he said it so yes its today 15-07-2019 I'm going to farm 3x
Thanks
It's 12/22/24, I just did it on PS5. It felt like I was going crazy on the Reks part, but I eventually got the numbers in the right order, and everything worked.
1 hour, 6 great trangos, thanks dude!

mdablemont same but go watch his version 2 video for the bow it does work. I gave up a month ago thinking youtubers are just lucky or hacking but his method guarantees it.
For those wondering, the numbers are the same every time. Sequence 97, 88, 86 appears at cure #47-49 always.
@@LSB001 Thanks for the tip. 4x it is then!
Thanks for the tips they still working in March 22nd 2022
Thank you, tried this today(feb/2020) and it worked, got 3 in less than 30 minutes.
Still works in april 2020! Brilliant stuff :) 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Does the rekks rng trick work on the steam version? , feel like I've been sat here for hours trying it
number sequence took a while but it worked 1st try :D thank you fuzz
Confirmed to still work in December 2022. Thank you as always for these videos!
I got this weapon quicker than the Seitengrat. THANKS AGAIN!!
At around 4:50, you exited to title THEN closed the application.
Does this affect the game differently than simply closing application?
100% work! I hope this trick will work also for Black Mask in Cerobi Steppe. I need one more, i got mine from Bazaar and the second in the Paros' chests. Thank you for this video! Still useful after all this time ^^

Got knots of rust for ages before realising I had gambits on and a bunch of status buffs. Gambits off, dispel, re-autosaved. 1st time. Phew!
Still works till 13.2.2020, thank you so much Fuzz!
I got 3 gil. :( Edited to add: Worked 2nd time, this time turned gambits off. Thanks man!
Nice one congrats dude :)
I can confirm this method still works as i just got 2 of them and i am completely hyped
Huge help buddy, great video. I've used all your vids for the hidden items, always 100% spot on. You definitely earned a sub and follower
I had to dispel prior to manipulating the RNG. Got a knot of rust on the first try, then Gil a second time.
Third time is a charm and I got the Great Trango 😁🙌
Does this work in nintendo switch 2020
la great Trango se saca si tu sacaste los 6 cofres que sólo salen una sola vez en esta sección,rienes 10℅ que aparezca el cofre t tienes otro 10 % que salga la great Trango,lo mismo pasa en muchos niveles de toda ivalice hay 12 cofres ocultos invisibles todos ellos son de prueba
Still works September 2022...so does the game crash glitch for license board. The team that makes remasters seem to drop all support after launch.
It finally worked. The only difference from what I can tell is that I got the 97, 88, 86 combo without having to go to the save crystal in between to replenish my MP. I got all three in one “cycle”.
This is my favourite tip on your channel thanks Fuzz!
This is great! Still working ATM. I got OP bow using Reks Method. Cheers Mate!
Again, you're an angel, Fuzz!!! Thank you so much.
Worked well thank you!
Does this still work on the new updated? Just wondering...please let me know
I just downloaded this game for the Switch. Would this playthrough playlist and guides still work?
No matter what I do, the megaelixir doesnt spawn? maybe i picked it up at an earlier stage?...do i keep running in and out of rooms till it spawns again?
I have done what the vid and cannot get it. The only thing different is I grabbed the megaelixir awhile back in the game. I wanna get this sword but all I get is Gil or knot of rust. I even tried with and without diamand bracket.

Still works as of 2020, you're the man!
4 dec 2020 👍👍. Another fantastic video and more importantly explanation 😀
Works perfectly. Thanks, mate!
Thanks again! Got it on my first try! :)
Brill!
WOOOO!!! Thanks, Fuzz!!!
Can this be repeated again like the seintengrat or not any help appreciated
Yes it can.
yup i got three.
I tried other methods but didn’t work.
But, as always, yours works as of 12/29/19,
Thanks Fuzz!
So where the hell is the Reks save link in the “video description below”?
ruclips.net/video/vEcD5EjCG_8/видео.html
Hi, i have question, how I can go to the abyssal
As of October 2020 this is still working and I think exploiting this actually increases the chance of the the ACTUAL great Trango chest spawning considering it literally spawned after I walked in and out of the room to auto save the progress for this. So be sure to be on the lookout for that.
Can confirm it works still with PS5! 8/11/22 ! Thank you!
Thank you very much! Great Trango it's mine now! And this for your good guide! Sorry for bad english but I'm italian ... Ahaha. Thank you again man. :)
Fantastic, enjoy your new sword :)
i was told this didn't work for xbox on the bow that is a similar method. Does this one work for xbox?

Still works on ps4 🥳
Im trying to get a second trango but the megalixer not appearing anymore?
6/2/21 - Still works!
Does the rng work on the switch because it never lets me get the numbers for any of the tricks for reks healing part.
Thx mate, got 6 of this precious steel in 40 minutes :D
Still works Oct 2023, btw this is awesome I already got the bow too
18/05/2024
It still works!
Thanks very much!
Still 1000% works as of March 4 2021 on 1.08..BiG THX:))
Been at it for like 30 minutes and I can not get the sequence to appear. Had 97 then 88 a few times but can't get 86.
Thanks a lot for your help! March 7th 2022 and still working. 👍🏻
Worked like a charm! Thanks bud!
Did it in one shot, great video man.
Thanks and good job.
What God do you have to make human sacrifice to in order to get the godforsaken sequence? 6 hours and still no 97/88/86 for me.
As of January 22nd 2021 this still works.

not related to the weapon in question but can the rex save rng the zodiac spear?
It worked like a charm! Thank you!
Remember: deactivate gambits, otherwise your character may cast some spell (as mine have done) 😥
Thank you for the guide!!!
Man, I spent 2 hours and nothing! I even tried in other videos but I still can't get the right sequence. I'm trying on PS4. Please help me 💔
T sacaste los otros cofres invisibles?
Need to try this since I didn’t get it from zodiark. Does it still work in 2025?
Great video. It works perfectly has it did with the Seitengrat
Thanks Hugo, glad this helped! Fuzz.
July 2024 it works! Thank you 🙏🏾
Can u get multiple great tangos from this method or is it one time only?
It worked perfectly!! Thanks a lot!!
i do not see a link to making a reks save

Wat theme was that on your ps home?
04/06/2020 still work, thanks a lot bro!
Would you recommend this over that stellar bow and arrow that we can glitch get as well?
Stellar bow? It's the same strong like Seitengrate bow?
I dunno If this sequence gets to work on the xbox version. Over two hours spent and the sequence is elusive as the damn chest
