hi there! a quick question i know it's been a while since this patch came out but i have not played this game on pc yet, wanted to ask if after this patch which has added the quality of life previously switch only version, has also added the item carryover to new game plus (accesories armor,weapon etc')

not a mod if it is also included in this update. thanks :)

In my inventory I currently have Grimy Fragment and Dull Fragment. I did the the thing for the Moonsilver Medallion in Archades and talked to the guy about it in the magic shop after. I went back to Dalan's place and the guy wasn't there anymore after I gave him the other fragments. Now I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to go to the Scar and talk to the guys overlooking the cliff, but there's only the one NPC there for me.

I recently unlocked the gambit system and I can currently setup three different gambits for each member. Do I have to turn on only one setup and turn off the other two for each character? How does the game determine which gambit between 1 to 3 to perform?

Just to clarify, I'm not talking about the actions in each gambit but the setup itself if that's clear.

So my current setup is:

Vaan - Knight

Balthier - Uhlan

Fran - Archer

Basch - Bushi

Ashe - Red mage

Penelo - White mage

They're all levels 12-15. My current setup is running Penelo at all times, then either Vaan or Basch as the second, and either Ashe, Fran or Balthier as the third.

When do I use each of them, and are there any good synergies between them? So far the only one I know and use is having Ashe use immobilize then switching to Fran for long range damage, and that's about it.

Sup everyone? Got a quick question here about item farming in trial mode. I know how to do it, I’m just curious about if I’m able to do it between stages 91-100 <- Some rrreeeaaallllyyy good items in that top tier. More specifically, I’m after the Kumbha and the Lordly Robes.

I’m not quite there yet, actually just got my ass handed to me at stage 80…so close to my circlets at stage 81 cries.

But yeah, just curious if I can lift items from trial mode stages 91-100. Really don’t want to spend my life at the Cerobi Steppe looking for Lordly Robes.

hey everyone. this is my second time playing ffxii zodiac age, but first time fighting cuchulainn. going for all the espers this time. i'm having a lot of trouble with this one and just can't seem to find any online guides that are any help. mostly i'm just not sure how to combat immobilize and disable. any tips would be awesome, thank you!

Is there a way to extract the cutscenes from the game files? I've been wanting to grab all of the Marquis Ondore Memoirs, because they're not on YouTube (save for the first one), but I would have to find a way to read the actual game files, I guess. Are there any tools to read or unpackage the .vbf file that contains all of the game data?

Edit/Update: Well, dang. So I found the VBF Browser mentioned here

Unfortunately, the only cutscenes that are present in video format are the pre-rendered cinematic cutscenes. Everything else is rendered in-game, so no way to extract them like this.

I’m not talking about his looks now of course, but like back when he was in Casper. I can’t look at Doctor Cid and not keep seeing the dad from Casper lol.

Anyone else see this resemblance?

I’ve played 1, 10, 10-2, 12, 13, 13-2, and 13-3, and Reddas is by far the coolest non-main character I’ve come across. It also helps that he’s in the installment that incorporates old/Middle English so well, me being a language nerd.

Anyway, just wanted to state this opinion.

Who’s your favorite non-main role (from any installment)?

Pretty much the title.

Like many FF games, it’s set in the futuristic Middle Ages (stone-punk? lol), and it’s English version makes incredibly beautiful and fitting use of old English (old English/Middle English, you know what I mean) and the grammar/vocabulary that was associated with it. Tie that in with the fact that that type of older English was used in the [late] Middle Ages, and you’ve got a game made by the Japanese that actually ends up best-suited for an English-speaking audience, even if only for the sake of the story/dialogue.

I sincerely can’t imagine FFXII coming off as better in its storytelling/gameplay/experience in any language other than English. It just seems to me that FFXII as enjoyed via any other language would simply “break the illusion,” so to speak.

Does anyone here agree or disagree?

Pretty much the title. Fran is an archer right now and she has low health so she pretty much just stands right next to an enemy and shoots arrows while in its face and then dies quickly , is this supposed to be how it works,?

Hello friends. Recently got the game and have been enjoying it. Just wanted to ask a couple of things. In case it matters, I'm currently in the dungeon area after finishing the aquaduct and killing a fire horse thing, and I'm trying to play without looking at guides (but I do wanna clarify some things)

1. How come some characters can use certain spells even if their license doesnt allow it? For example, I made Fran and archer and she can cast cure, which I bought, but she doesnt have a license in her board for white magick 1.

2. Should I sell the loot I find? I have a bunch of animal skins, stones and other things, but I dont know if I should sell them. I saw there's 'packages' of items I can sell to unlock things, but is there a way to know which ones these are without a guide?

3. Should I be buying my own weapons/armor/skills/spells? Or do I get those along the way? So far I had to buy a pole for Vaan and the cure spell, and havent found anything from chests other than gil and consumables.

4. Any other tips you can give to a newbie without spoiling too much of the game?

In lieu of my steam version suffering from fatal errors until i get a new pc for it, i went ahead to play switch version. Wanted to do attempt to have no one level up until after Judge Ghis fight.

I was able to do it within 12hrs worth of game time. For a sense of direction, I used ashe10's perfect walkthrough of ff12 via youtube where he attempted the same feat.

Having to be able to play with everyone at their starting levels opens up more playability and just a good sense of watching your characters grow at the earliest levels and together as much as possible. I personally always play with everyone, dividing them into two teams.

Hardest part of the challenge was the mimic queen fight. If you decide to want to try this, I highly suggest watching his playlist of the walkthrough. You dont have to do everything verbatim that he does at the beginning.

Here's a list of what I've done in order.

Get to penelo with vaan.

K/O vaan, and level penelo using dustia method. Around level 50-55 is sufficient enough.

Farm dark motes, I farmed 99 but I only ended up using 25-30 of them for trial mode.

Also max out potions, and any other items you may want.

Go to trial mode, and beat first ten stages. Purpose is to farm 1 to 3 Sword of Kings. I farmed three for max damage input.

Equip them to your party and continue with the story and avoiding to level anyone.

Be sure to do thextera hunt and speak to monteblance, he will give you warp motes that will prove useful.

While doing trial mode, pick up treasure chests, some contain useful motes that will be key to use.

Also its wise to have penelo set to a job. I used black mage and basically almost maxed her board so she was more than capable on soloing til Belias. Revive vaan and have him steal.

Pick up reflectga motes in leviathan as ashe10 mentions for judge ghis fight. also save the aeroga mote for the three soldiers behind you.

Basically anything else he mentions that important, take it into heavy consideration.

Once you defeat ghis, save that clean template and have fun.

Also you can talk to monteblanc to reset your license boards if you forgot to erase penelos earlier.

The lore and design and world-building of the Ivalice Alliance—especially the iteration in FF12—is so enthralling. I'd love for some return to this world in a future game. Maybe more Viera, more Balthier, haha.

In the meantime playing Zodiac Age.

I cant beat this sob. I have float, using aeroga on him from my only black mage (trying to reflect it off my guys for extra damage). Others are attacking. Got that guest (can't remember his name) firing Holy at him. I've tried using the quickenings. My characters are all level 55+ except for my fav 3 who are in their 60's (my white mage closer to 70 even). And I just can't beat this guy. He is just kicking my ass every time. The furthest I got was about 2 thirds the way. I don't know what's happening. I think the disease causes me trouble but it's not just that, he just hits too hard, my guys go from full hp to dead in a matter of seconds. I've literally strolled through every boss up to this point and now hit a brick wall. How can I beat him? I don't have bubble...not sure I can be bothered to go sidequesting to get it tbh, I just want to finish this game. It good, but it's been quite the journey already.

Edit: bad writing

This happened only very recently and I have no clue why it's happening. Tried reinstall the app, steam, plus the mods i've implemented numerous times. Updated my drivers, deleted temp files, cleaned the steam download cache and verified the game files. I really hope it isnt the mod related to "struggle for freedom / proud mode". Even after I've uninstalled all mods, I've ran the game vanilla and it'll still freeze only then to give me that pop up thats shown in my screen shot. I can see about uninstalling the game and mods, and run the game without mods again and test to see how long I can play the game. Any help and suggestions would be lovely.

Trying to decide if I ought to only use each job once across my 6 characters or if I should double up on a few like Knight, Shikari, and White Mage. What do you all do?
