*nods while tears stream down face*
Omega ruins are an evil place... the only way I managed to get the damn chests was LITERALLY fleeing from everything, although, I did go back there for a stint because I was after farplane winds... (and wtf up with the disappearing chests if you don't do them in the right order?! At least I managed to get the phantom ring...)
*Tackles you guys (sai + phoenix)* Purifying salts HERE I COME! I can so do catching stuff, I mean, I tried to do the 'rare-steal-thing' off the Hornet in the monster arena and lets say it didn't go well...
And on the chocobo race front - I spent no less than 2 hours doing it non-stop and eventually managed to get my time down to 7 seconds, then what happens? OH YES! My mother comes in and cuts the power on me -_-
So yeah.... I'm thinking being an orphan won't be so bad...
Also. WHY IN GODS NAME ARE THEY CALLED THE CALM LANDS?! THERE IS NOTHING CALM ABOUT THEM AT ALL!!!

OH god, the calm lands. I nicknamed it the 'Hyperventilating from anger lands'.
It has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?
And yes, the OMega Ruins are horrible... but oddly one of my favorite places in the game. The only things that ever got the chance to kill me were those effing Marlboros. Actually, the were the only thing I ever really dies from in 8 and 12 too. Ugh. Stupid tentacle things.

Urg, hate those friggin fags... (the marlboros that is)
Although, my absolute FAVORITE thing to hate in Omega is the chests.
Literally, I mean, the number of times I stole from one of those, hoping to get a turbo ether or summant, and the damn thing EXPLODED ON ME into a giant annoying monster I can't. Even. Run. From.
Also, demon walls - I really really do need to get myself a bloody stoneproof....

Hehe, I figured out that I needed to have protect from Confuse, petrify, beserk, and sleep. Those made life a lot easier in that game.

True, true...
But I get attachments to armour and weapons, I mean, I seriously would have a hard time trading in Auron's crimson bracer for anything, because I got it when I was still all in-plot and was like 'OMG HE EATS FIRE!!'
I also love the sphere grid, I mean, it's just so fun to screw about with people's moves.
On my team: Tidus has life and curaga, and also steal and Use (as does Yuna), Rikku is hooking up with the -aga magics soon to be followed by Yuna (once I get her auto-life, because SCORE I have enough keyspheres to get to the mo-fo!).
I was literally so close to giving Auron some crazy white-magic deal or theif skills or something, just for the irony...

The last time I played that game everyone had every freaking spot. Granted, the game lasted for 175 hours, but it was really fun.
And yes, that's a lot of time.

I know there are a few that don't like FFX-2, but I played it through and because I tend to be a bit...obsessive when it comes to getting EVERYTHING, I'm playing through it again (had fricken 99% when finished it the first time.) My Greatest moment though is when I FINALLY beat all 100 levels on the cloister in Bevelle. Thank jebus for cats bell!! That was my savior on quite a few different occasions

Calm down Fear, I know you can do it. You just have to quit panicking yourself.

Fear is made of so much awesome right now no one can touch her. Even though she's double posting. She is so dammed awesome that doesn't even matter. Well first off THANK YOU AQUA PHOENIX SO MUCH FOR DRAGON TIP - got my purifying salts and no-encounters is just SPLENDID. The above made Rikku's cactur-chasing quest just tedious as opposed to fustrating - so YAY now for gillionaire and godhand etc. And I actually found Lulu's lightning-dodging the easiest thing ever. It took about ten minutes and I really didn't find it at all stressful or hard. (Geosagno was more annoying) AND THIS MORNING I TOTALLY TOTALLY SCORED UNDER 0 ON THE F'CKING CHOCOBO RACE! So this is like, the BEST christmas ever EDIT: Oh.My.God. I just got a no encounters weapon dropped from a demon wall on me in the Omega ruins. So. Much. Work.... dropped.... by.... fiend....

*hugs* Aw, glad I could help even though you got one from the Demon Wall and all. As payment you can dodge that lightning for me. (It's the only thing I haven't done in that game. The fact that I got up to 190-something and then got zapped is just painful and unfair. I hate life.) Another hint if you wanna tackle Dark Aeons and eventually Penance: for the love of God, make sure the DAs drop decent armour when you've defeated them (i.e. has four slots + good abilities). It's a much easier way to get Break HP Limit etc. then trekking around looking for stuff. I used to make sure I could actually beat the DA in question legitimately but if I didn't get the armour I wanted, reset + Zanmato. Make sure you customize your armour with Auto-Haste too. DAs will probably knock you out a lot so it's easier not having to waste a turn casting Haste. Hurray for unasked for information!
