BE WARE TONS OF MISTAKES AND FACTS NOT DETAILS !!!
stuff i figured out while playing the game with my limited jp knowledge
- if time runs out you start new game+ and all items stat boost are carried over quests reset and quest items get deleted
- max str and mag is 5000 (not sure for health yet ) max dmg 999999
- finishing the game on easy or normal unlocks equipment upgrade and all teleport points (EQ upgrade lets sayeach item has an nr 100-200 means can be upgraded 100 or 200 times so if you want to upgrade an item ex to get max STR you end up using 85% of upgrades so then you can only increase other ones 15% o itrems canot be upgrade at maximum in evry way but you can downgrade and them upgrade how you want later considering 5k stat cap later you can chose to increase utility over stat or balance stats)
- skills upgrade(not sure witch day it's unlocked) u need some materials shown on left side down for defense and debuff just the materials upgrading
*star level(master skill) to get star you need an skill to be leveled from 1-5 to have the ATB cost reduced to max; have damage modifier at maximum or drop from day7+ on hard mode(but those drops are simple skill no low atb cost)
*defense & debuff skills lvling 1-5=star level if you leveled it from start you get star level (best way you have an syntetize you what to add hp/str.. get the one from initial level to the other one combine and then upgrade further
*magic & attacks apart from materials you need to cobine same level skill to increase the damage modifier and when it reaches maximum you get some arrows up on right side then using materials you can upgrade then to next level same way til maximum level (some rare skill drop can be upgraded without combining but they reach max lvl 5 if you did not upgrade from from lvl 1 so you need atleast 1 to lvl from 1-4 combine with someting with good stats and lvl to 5 = star lvl
"never sell skills you leveled up from lvl 1 only with those you can achieve maximal level"
- good skills
* 16:00-18:00 any place except boss area that anubis egyptian monster drops heavy stike best mele skill also an good beginer weap got it from my 1st kill i was like wooow
* 04-06 am that insect ruin/ruinaga also some $ (if you are on normal i think you need day 7 to get ruinaga and heavy strike drop)
* firaga 2nd boss zone an room where red dragons spawn (same as above with firaga drop)
- accessories upgrade when you loot the same accessory again some witch can't be upgraded gives money instead of upgrade 2nd time when looted
- some of best accesories
*10atb cost +30% str&magic(upgraded it to +50% stat bonus) Yusunan after you get id card and enter the big statue place go on the right stairs up and there an crack between buildings jump down for the chest behind boxes
* str +% 1st station at begining up on ledder ,mag +% wilderlands trees behind doctor
* atb speed like 15 dead dunes near 3rd quest tomb stop tornado 4 gp chest
* ultimate atb speed 75* 100 2nd time dead dunes from station up to tomb 2 times for me rift open crazy fight save before if you die rift gone
* each final mob(last moneter,pink colored,chaos) gives usualy an accesory 1 of them not sure witch gave me +15% str and strenght eater( displeas haste faith brave from mobs)
- having ff13 and ff13-2 save (even fresh ones) unlocks 2 best costumes for endgame(100% atb on start +20 atb and all 4 skills empty) (the save were from english vers so worked on jp version)
- farming an monster after some kills it spawns an pink version of the same monster(then til new game + the same monster won't appear), it dopes skills with +1 lvl increase bonus and items are better and after the fight is over it drops an item on the ground, 3 best start game farms are
*behemoth( wilder lands the one who stands on 2 legs after 50% hp) gives an +900 +900 sword (attack him at the same time he attack you for easy knock down)
*dryad(that flying green monster who spawns others mobs and casts aero) in that maze of roads in the forest(wildlands) drops one of best ring +20% damage from distance best for mage
*Sukatene(that dancing bird) in Yusunan the festival city where the area with sand is gives ultimate fighter ring +20% damage to close attacks
- !!!! money farming Dead Dunes in the rocky desert area on the hill you find an blue cross further near tomb right side up the hill an tornado and an cactuar with an flower on head there put the blue cross in the tablet fight cactuar and ferther in that corridor (i was at 8 am there) 90% chance to spawn an cactuar easy kill with fire and for me on hard mode before day 7 it always gave 15k gill and skill upgrade item for +5 skill and last one gives an pendant witch increases base dmg +10 good for future flower cactuar fight becouse he recives only 1 dmg!!!
- game days difference ( never played on easy only normal and hard ) after day 7 all bosses and monsters are harder monsters drop like 50% more gold the skill +1 lvl so if it doped an +1 skill it will drop and +2 on hard drops + 3-4-5(star from pink chaos version) hard mode also gives more money and not sure but i think upgrade and skill upgrade for high lvl only drops in hard mode
all 5 main quests can be completed in 3 days as i did on my 2nd play trough
-my kick *** skill setup RIPed the bosses on hard mode all except last one not there yet
1st heavy guard, deprotect, deshel, heavy strike (STR)
2nd firaga, regen guard, blizara+aeorathat skill, e.. something all 4 ele atks (mag+24% KO spear)
3rd blizara, regen guard, ruin, ruinaga (mag)
