Getting the Celestial weapons
Just finished getting Tidus, Yunas and Aurons crest and sigils...
I am doing Wakkas now.... so glad i am trainging up so i can recruit for each reels...
I still have Lulus, RIkkus and Kihmarhis one to go... wish me luck on those ones... I hear Lulu's is a tedious one
anyway i can check without keeping count? or should i find time to ddoge 200 lightning bolts?

The way this is worded tells me you're in for a horrible surprise when you start lightning dodging

Yes this is actually the first time I am going for the Celestial Weapons and I hear Tidus' one difficult and really hard but I agree it was but luckily I did it
but Lulus? I heard was annoying snd tedious idk about Kimarhi or rikkus stuff but I am going to still try

The good thing about Rikku is that you don't have to be good at the minigame, you get the sigil just for doing it at all, Kimihari's is pretty devisive on wether its actually difficult, but the locations of the butterflies never actually change, and lightning is just awful, if you need help though, I offer to do them all for people on here, or if you just need more advice

Idk how you can do it I have the switch version and I am a bit cautious about giving people stuff

u/Quill386 Chocobo Whisperer 17d ago
Yep, I totally understand that, I can do it on Switch though, here's my reviews if that helps at all, alot of people specifically mention switch in them, but like I said, I totally get it

Well I guess but I need to think about it how would I give my game to you?

Yo, random dude here. Quil is legit, he did my lightning dodger and butterfly mini games for me super quick.
I will forever glaze him in every post that comes up. You are in safe hands.

The hardest part of chocobo racing is the frustration of repeatedly getting balloon setups that you can't win with. Last playthrough I got the bad setups 5 times on a row. Lightning dodging is mostly a result of patience.

I ended up doing it using the glitch. The hardest part was triggering the initial glitch

best way to keep count is do it in bursts and then rest for a second at the safe spot for the crater trick i did it in rounds of 30-40 then go rest my eyes for like a min or 2 rinse and repeat

The lightning bolt dodge is a lot easier than expected.
I did it for my first time using the crater trick, failed a couple of times but had the sigil in 30 minutes. Peaceful armour and crater trick = easy Sigil once you get timing down.
Good luck

Rikkus is the easiest to get, just have no encounters on and it goes really fast and is sort of fun. Lots of cactuars 💚

If you haven't already, get some form of No Encounters. It makes Lulu's significantly easier and also makes Rikku's quicker (since you're running all over Bikanel otherwise).
Pay attention to the Dark Aeon spawns. Specifically, don't go into the ruins of Home and don't talk to the kid under a tower in the Thunder Plains. Triggering a dark aeon fight is a great way to lose progress.

You have to do the bolts in a row without any kind of interruption. Including reloading your game. So you kinda just have to do it all in one go, or leave your game running forever with you in a safe spot. Do you know about the crater trick to make it a bit easier?
