============================================================== Optimal 100% Story Completion Guide for Final Fantasy X-2 For PlayStation 2 Version 5.0 Written by: Stephen Townsend (GameFaqs username: KG21) Copyright 2005 by KG21 E-mail: Kelson75@hotmail.com AIM: lxKG21xl (that's LXKG21XL) =============================================================== A SPECIAL NOTICE!! To all persons who use my FAQ: Thank you for using my FAQ, first and foremost. Keep in mind I am trying my best to address all problems with my guide. If you have a problem, please check later versions of the FAQ (such as this one) and under the section your having problems with. I may have fixed it recently. Keep in mind 100% is extremely elusive, and I can not track everything you do. By missing a scene you put yourself at irreversible risk and damage to 100% completion. If you have sent me an e-mail and I have not responded I am sorry. Due to school and work I have very little time to answer e-mails, let alone as many as a Final Fantasy FAQ draws. Please be as patient as possible. This FAQ was created with the purpose of shedding further light on the subject of obtaining one hundred percent within one game. A FAQ of this kind DOES already exist, however due to certain aspects that will remain undisclosed, I have create this "Optimal" guide. By creating this guide my sole purpose is to inform, not to "out-do" others and their works. **NOTE** This FAQ MAY REVEAL major plot swings. Keep in mind SOME THINGS NEED to be described, and they will not be marked with a Spoiler warning. They will not ruin your game (most likely) so proceed at your own risk. ===================================== -------- INTRODUCTION -------- ===================================== The following includes information detailed above. Please send suggestions or comments to the e-mail found at the very beginning of this FAQ. If using Windows use the Find feature (Ctrl+F) and Table of Contents to locate a section of the guide quickly and efficiently, and read that sections briefing and information. Keep in mind the number before the Table of Contents entries is NOT part of the Section Heading. If you wanted to find the guide, then you would use Ctrl+F, then type in "The Guide". This FAQ is to only appear on www.gamefaqs.com unless a personal e-mail addressed by Stephen Townsend, whose GameFaqs username is KG21, gives permission to use it. All new versions will debut at www.gamefaqs.com first. All sites that receive confirmation e-mails to use my FAQs (which are listed here and at the end of this FAQ) may use the updates from www.gamefaqs.com, or if they prefer, I could e-mail them the updates. ===================================== -------- TABLE OF CONTENTS -------- ===================================== 1. Update Information 2. Things To Note 3. The Guide 4. Conclusion/Notes 5. Thanks 6. Copyright Information ====================================== -------- UPDATE INFORMATION -------- ====================================== DECEMBER 15, 2003 Version 1.0 Don't know why, but I feel like writing another FAQ. Just starting it, so things may need some revising and such. Any and ALL suggestions are welcome! My e-mail is at the very beginning of this FAQ. UPDATE: Just finished Version 1.0 at 3:13 PM EST 12/16/2003! Look for more descriptive entries for different percentages in the future! DECEMBER 20, 2003 Version 2.0 Thanks to some help, I've fixed some formatting issues and some things which make the FAQ more appealing. I included SOME stuff, such as changing some things which might've been misleading, and in Version 3.0 I plan on adding things like more support for guide content (aka "beefing up" the guide ;p). DECEMBER 28, 2003 Version 3.0 Fixed some errors in the FAQ. Well, not errors or course, but just misleading things. Remember that "content update" I was talking about? Well, chances are I won't get to it as soon as I'd hoped. No worries though! If you have ANY trouble at all just drop me an e-mail and I'll try and help you. Keep in mind SOMETIMES I don't check my e-mail as often as I should, so give me atleast a day to respond. Thanks! JANUARY 08, 2004 Version 4.0 Fixed more errors (they weren't ones that would ruin your game if you have been using a previous version, just some minor misleading things). APRIL 12, 2005 Version 5.0 Updated Email because old e-mail was deleting many requests. Sincerest apologies to any unanswered emails during that time. ===================================== -------- THINGS TO NOTE -------- ===================================== This FAQ was created, in some sorts, using many sources. Mainly the Brady Games guide was the source I used to achieve 100% in one game, so that is what this FAQ most closely resembles. Unlike the Brady guide, however, my FAQ is a bit more descriptive. I in no way shape or form copied any guide, Japanese or English, or any FAQ on www.gamefaqs.com, during the making of this FAQ. Enough of that, though. On to real things to note! First and foremost, here's a rundown of this FAQs' goals. -Help people achieve 100% in one (or two ^^) game(s). Well, that's it ^_^ Really, though, be SURE THAT YOU DO NOT DO ANY OF THE FOLLOWING!!! -DO NOT SKIP ANY CUTSCENES. This means pressing "Pause" then the "Skip Scene button" to skip a cut-scene/story development. In short: WATCH EVERYTHING! Even if you die and have to load again, WATCH IT ALL THE WAY THROUGH! -Secondly, you CAN skip dialogue (as in pressing "X" to speed it along), except on one occasion. This occasion occurs in Chapter 1 at Mushroom Rock Road/Youth League HQ in a conversation with Maechen. DO NOT press ANYTHING during this conversation. More on this part, however, is revealed in the FAQ. ===================================== -------- THE GUIDE -------- ===================================== OK, back to the good stuff. The following is a rundown, Chapter-by- Chapter, Level-By-Level, and Scene-By-Scene, of what to do. **NOTE** I HIGHLY suggest having more than one save game. If you at ANY TIME have a different percentage than what is listed at the "TOTAL PERCENTAGE", then find out what you did wrong (drop me an e-mail) and load your previous save back up. THIS IS IMPERATIVE! ===================================== -------- CHAPTER ONE -------- ===================================== LUCA - Total Percentage Gain: 1.6% **After the opening cut-scene, move down the docks to the second dock on the left. There is a Moogle behind a stack of crates on the right. Touch the Moogle, verify the HP/MP Restored popup, and continue. **Obtain the Garment Grid in the boss battle at the dock. Mission Complete! TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 1.6% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- CELSIUS - Total Percentage Gain: 1.8% **Speak with Shinra, Paine, Rikku, and Brother on the airship, in no particular order. **NOTE** Speaking to Buddy here nets you an Al Bhed Primer! **Speak to the Barkeep Hypello at the "Cabin". **Rest in the "Cabin" area by speaking to the Barkeep. **Back on the Bridge, speak to Shinra and select "Treasure Spheres". This is where you will view all of your spheres to percentage completion points. For now, select the sphere "Journey's Start". TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 3.4% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MOUNT GAGAZET - Total Percentage Gain: 2.6% **Reach the top of the Ruins within the Time Limit given shortly in to the level. **This goes hand-in-hand with the above objective.

TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 6.6% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- LUCA - Total Percentage Gain: 1.6% **Complete the mission where Yuna recalls what she did while Paine and Rikku were at the concert. This will include the "Moogle healing" event if you accomplished it, as well as a short mini-game to hand out balloons. To start it, talk to the man next to the balloon stand, then talk to everyone in the area (including two people hidden behind a sliding window in the Northwest). Mission Complete! **Return to Luca a second time and speak with Rin in the Eastern Blitzball Corridor (from the main desk at the docks, take the stairs on the right side straight through the tunnel). TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 8.2% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MI'IHEN HIGHROAD - Total Percentage Gain: 0.2% **Automatic event. Simply arrive at the location and verify that Yuna confesses her memories via a flashback. TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 8.4% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MUSHROOM ROCK ROAD - Total Percentage Gain: 4.6% **Speak with Yaibal and accept the mission he gives you. BUT WAIT! **BEFORE attempting the mission, speak to Clasko outside the entrance to Mushroom Rock Road. **Enter Mushroom Rock Road AFTER speaking to Clasko and begin the Fiend Hunting mission. **Encounter Ormi and Logos shortly in to the level and follow them down to the valley floor. Follow the winding path down here all the way to a Save Sphere. Enter the Den to the north of the Save Sphere. Obtain CRIMSON REPORT ONE. **After you obtain the Crimson Report, speak to Maroda, who enters the Den. **Travel through Mushroom Rock Road to the lift at the end of the area. Speak to Elma, although I believe this is an automatic event. Mission Complete! **Speak to Lucil TWICE at the entrance to the Youth League HQ building. **Speak with Maechen to the right of Lucil. AFTER YOU SPEAK TO MAECHEN DO NOT PRESS A SINGLE BUTTON! Put the controller DOWN if you have to, and WAIT! When FINALLY given the option to shake is hand or not, ACCEPT HIS OFFER TO SHAKE HIS HAND! BUT DO NOT PRESS ANYTHING BEFORE THIS! *gasp* **Run BACK through Mushroom Rock Road to where Yaibal first greeted the party (hey, the battles won't kill you ;p). Speak to Clasko, who is to the right of the Save Sphere. Agree to let him come aboard the Celsius. **Board the airship and speak to Shinra and select "Treasure Spheres" to view CRIMSON REPORT ONE. **Speak to Clasko in the "Cabin". TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 13.0% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- DJOSE TEMPLE - Total Percentage Gain: 1.0% **Wait until the line at the tent to the right, above the save sphere, depletes, and then run in to the tent. You'll then be told to go to Gippal. Head north in to the temple, speak to Gippal, and then head BACK out. Follow Gippal south, and finally receive the "Letter of Introduction" Key Item. TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 14.0% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MOONFLOW - Total Percentage Gain: 0.6% **Enter the Moonflow from your Airship, and then speak to Tobli on the bank in the first Moonflow area. Accept his mission. **Head south a while to reach a Hypello by a wagon. Guide the poor soul north by running with him and his Chocobo. I suggest running behind it. You must NOT LOSE ANY CARGO/PACKAGES during this mission!! When back at the Moonflow bank, Tobli will congratulate you with some VERY useful things, including the Gun Mage Dressphere! Mission Complete! TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 14.6% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- GUADOSALAM - Total Percentage Gain: 0.4% **Simply run toward the entrance to the Farplane and have Yuna explain her feelings about entering the Farplane, etc. TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 15.0% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- THUNDER PLAINS - Total Percentage Gain: 0.2% **Enter the Thunder Plains through Guadosalam, just because it is easier. Watch the beginning entrance scene, as with Mi'ihen Highroad, to gain this percentage. TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 15.2% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MACALANIA WOODS - Total Percentage Gain: 2.2% **Speak to Bayra in the southern part of Macalania Woods. *Automatic Event. Just walk far enough in to the woods to reach him. **Speak to Donga. Head east from Bayra, then east again past two guards. Head south at the intersection and speak to Donga. **Speak to Pukutak. Head a good ways in to the woods to encounter Pukutak. She's standing right in the middle of the path, and it takes a good while to reach her, so be patient and don't panic. **Keep heading along the path after encountering Pukutak to reach a four-way divide. Take the Northeastern path to reach the second spring. Speak to Tromell FOUR TIMES. He is at the northern part of this second spring. **After speaking to Tromell FOUR TIMES, head in to the north path at the four-way divide. This will take you outside, and you will witness a scene with O'aka. He will take off (speak with him before he runs away?) and you will have to give chase. To make this quick, simply run through the Southeastern path at the four-way divide and down the "magic walkway". Once you get to the Save Sphere, act like your going to where Donga was (at the first spring), but instead head North at the intersection this time. Head up in this small area to witness O'aka hiding up in a tree. When prompted, ALLOW O'aka to board the Celsius. Mission Complete! **Board the Celsius and speak to O'aka at the "Cabin". **ONGOING PERCENTAGE NOTICE!!** Before visiting Macalania Woods again in Chapter Three, MAKE SURE you have O'aka's debt paid off. To easily obtain this, see Chapter 2's "Guadosalam" section. TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 17.4% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BIKANEL DESERT - Total Percentage Gain: 0.8% **Simply complete one successful dig.

TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 18.2% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BEVELLE - Total Percentage Gain: 0.6% **Walk up to the main temple and meet Baralai at the entrance. View the scene (I hope you're remembering NOT TO SKIP scenes, but skipping dialogue by pressing "X" is OK). TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 18.8% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- CALM LANDS - Total Percentage Gain: 0.2% **Just as before, view the scene that appears when you first enter the Calm Lands. **Begin to Advertise for a company. To do this, simply speak to one of the two people at any "game stand" and choose 'Publicity'. Start publicizing for either company as soon as possible. View the PR FAQ at www.gamefaqs.com for all the information you need. Having over 400 POINTS before visiting the Calm Lands in Chapter 5 is a requirement for 100%!!! TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 19.0% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MOUNT GAGAZET - Total Percentage Gain: 0.4% **ONCE AGAIN, simply enter Mt. Gagazet and view the entrance scene. **NOTE** When you speak to Kimahri to console him, choose the middle option and be stern with him.

TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 19.4% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BESAID ISLAND - Total Percentage Gain: 2.2% **Oh boy. I suggest viewing a real FAQ for this section, because it is quite lengthy. In short: -Enter the village and speak to Wakka. -Enter Lulu's hut and speak to her, then rest in her hut. -Exit the hut. Speak to Lulu. ACCEPT the mission. -Use a FAQ at www.gamefaqs.com to learn how to discover the cipher numbers needed to unlock the "secret door". -Unlock the door in the area just before the beach (to the far left) and speak to Wakka. -Defeat the Boss in this small area. -Speak to Wakka once more after you defeat the Boss. -Mission Complete!

Reach the temple, and defeat the Boss. Mission Complete! TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 25.2% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- CHAPTER ONE COMPLETE!! ===================================== -------- CHAPTER TWO -------- ===================================== CELSIUS - Total Percentage Gain: 2.4% **Speak to the Barkeep Hypello at the bar in the "Cabin" and choose to Rest. **Speak to Brother on the "Bridge" and choose to give the "Awesome Sphere" to the Youth League. TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 27.6% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MUSHROOM ROCK ROAD - Total Percentage Gain: 1.0% **Give the Awesome Sphere to Nooj. *Automatic once you select "Mushroom Rock" as your destination.

Mission Complete! Please note that SOME people say you must merely ATTEMPT the challenge. If you are seriously having so much trouble that you CAN NOT complete this, then be aware that the above MAY BE true. Try it, and verify your percentage is at an even 30.0. If it isn't, then the method did NOT work and you should re-load your previous Save Game. **NOTE** Don't have 30%? Don't worry. If you haven't paid off O'aka then you aren't going to! Simply continue with the guide and you should be even once you reach 34% at the Thunder Plains! TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 30.0% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- KILIKA ISLAND - Total Percentage Gain: 0.2% **Arrive at Kilika and move forward to speak to Dona and other villagers. TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 30.2% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- LUCA - Total Percentage Gain: 0.8% **Go to the Central Square area of Luca and toward Shelinda (remember her? ^^). Accept her offer for an interview, and again, do NOT skip anything (except dialogue, although to be safe in this instance I wouldn't skip that either). TOTAL COMPLETION: 31.0% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MI'IHEN HIGHROAD - Total Percentage Gain: 1.4% **Fairly lengthy mission, so again, refer to a separate FAQ. Maybe one day I'll add full support for this section, but for now know that you need to simply catch a Chocobo and then rescue Calli BEFORE TIME RUNS OUT! In addition to that, make sure that you witness the scene where Rikku falls down from the top of the Ruins. This is for a scene later in the game. Mission Complete! **NOTE** Don't freak out if you can't get Rikku to fall from the Ruins. It is still possible to obtain 100% without doing this. This just makes it easier. Here's a more detailed explanation from Mr Person: "By default, 90% of people will see this event. It -is- in the chocobo catching mission. The only advice is - don't catch the Chocobo during the "press left-middle-right to block the chocobo" Rikku will automatically climb and fall if you do get past that point." **After the mission, speak to Clasko and Calli near the Travel Agency (a little bit North). ACCEPT and ALLOW them BOTH to board the Celsius. TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 32.4% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MUSHROOM ROCK ROAD - Total Percentage Gain: 1.0% **Enter the Mushroom Rock Road and head down in to the valley, toward the Den of Woe, just as you did in Chapter One. This time, however, Nooj is waiting in the Den. Speak to him. **After you witness the events, head all the way North to Youth League HQ and speak to Elma and Lucil. **Board the Celsius and speak to Shinra to view the sphere "CRIMSON REPORT SEVEN". TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 33.4% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MOONFLOW - Total Percentage Gain: 0.2% **Sell all Ten Tickets to Tobli. Just use the following information: 1. Woman in a red headband, just South of Tobli. Ask 1500 Gil. 2. Woman standing next to a child, just West of Tobli. Ask 1000 Gil. 3. Woman standing across from the Save Sphere in yellow/orange. Ask 1500 Gil. 4. Man sitting on bench next to Save Sphere. Ask 1000 Gil. 5. Person sitting on Moonflow Dock No. 1, at the bottom of the steps on the right. Ask 1500 Gil. 6. Person standing to the left at the bottom of the steps in the same area. Ask ANY AMOUNT! 7.

TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 33.6% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- GUADOSALAM - Total Percentage Gain: 0.2% **Approach the "LeBlanc chateau" (the big building to the North) to strike up a scene with some Syndicate guards. **NOTICE!! O'aka's debt!!** Still haven't paid off O'aka's debt? No problem! Save your game (I mean it...SAVE!!) and head to the Inn (right of Save Sphere). Talk to the Innkeeper and take him up on his "special offer". It costs 10,000 Gil, but wait until he says "It is the last person you would expect..." If you do NOT see this, then RESET and try again. Once you get this (it may take several tries), press "Square" while in front of the Innkeeper to sell the poor sap the item for a whopping 100,000 Gil! After this net 90,000 Gil gain, you should easily be able to pay off O'aka's debt (especially if you just did the Moonflow mission!). If you want, return there now and pay it off. Then take the time to buy items from O'aka and sell them to the Barkeep for some nice Gil! If you don't pay him off now, REMEMBER TO DO SO BEFORE CHAPTER 3 MACALANIA WOODS! TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 33.8% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- THUNDER PLAINS - Total Percentage Gain: 0.2% **Speak to Cid. In the southern portion of the Thunder Plains, marked by a "X", I believe, on the map. Cid will be waiting if you did the Chapter 1 events in Zanarkand. Talk to him here to gain a small percentage. TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 34.0% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MACALANIA WOODS - Total Percentage Gain: 1.4% **When you enter the Woods, head back to where you spoke to Tromell (in the second spring area) and meet Bayra. He tells you that you must find the other musicians in small circles of floating butterflies. To find Donga, exit out of the second spring and head down the Southeastern path at the four-way divide. Donga will be at the intersection on the magical walkway. After discovering him, continue down the path to the beginning of the area. When you reach the Save Sphere, head right until you get to the four-way intersection and head south. The circle here will reveal Pukutak. Mission Complete!

Complete the mission by touching the enemies that are facing different directions than the other enemies. Mission Complete! **After the previous mission, head back out to the Calm Lands with some Gyshal Greens (get them from Clasko). Run around until you get in to a battle with a Chocobo. Use the "Item" command and select "Gyshal Green" and then select the Chocobo. Use Attack on the ENEMIES ONLY with your other characters. When they are defeated, you may need to give the Chocobo another Green to capture it. You only need to capture ONE Chocobo BEFORE the end of Chapter 3. **Head to the Travel Agency in the middle of the Calm Lands. In the western portion of the Travel Agency you will find Lian and Ayde. Speak with them to gain this percentage. **NOTE** Remember that you need FOUR HUNDRED PR Points for the Publicity Campaign BEFORE you go to the Calm Lands in Chapter 5.

Afterwards, battle your way to Cloister 20 (it's easy for now) and obtain CRIMSON REPORT EIGHT. **Board the Celsius and view both CRIMSON REPORT SIX and CRIMSON REPORT EIGHT. **Defeat Trema in the last Cloister. This is INCREDIBLY difficult. Follow this general strategy and pray: -Equip Yuna with a mastered Gunner dressphere. Equip her with Cat Nip (which you obtain from Black Elemental on Cloister 40) and Speed Bracer. -Equip Rikku/Paine with Dark Knights Dresspheres. Use Crystal Bangles and items that raise their Defense. -Have Yuna be in Yellow Health (which can be obtained by equipping/dequipping Wrings/Bloodlusts) and go to the last cloister. -Two strategies for Garment Grids. One is equip one that raises Defense, and another is equip the Garment Grid which allows for Max HP Limit Break. If you choose the Max HP Limit Break, then use a Stamina Tonic in the following battles to DOUBLE your HP! If used with a Crystal Bangle and high level Dark Knights, this will sky rocket your HP! -Equip your Gunner with the Garment Grid which allows for First Strike. -At the start of the battle with Paragorn, use Trigger Happy. If you are in yellow health, and with the Cat Nip equipped, you will do massive damage. Maybe enough to kill him in one turn! -Have Dark Knights focus on using X-Potions and Yuna focus on doing Trigger Happy while she's alive. -Once he goes down, you will face Trema! Use the same strategy, but use Mega Phoenixes, because your party will probably go down fast. With any luck your Dark Knights will survive Meteor and be able to revive and heal with X-Potions before he casts it again. Keep using Trigger Happy and remember NOT to heal Yuna above yellow health, and good luck!! TOTAL PERCENTAGE: 92.0% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- CALM LANDS - Total Percentage Gain: 0.4% **Raise the Publicity Level of either company to Level 5 (400 points) BEFORE you enter the Calm Lands in Chapter 5!! **Do the Chocobo Ranch sidequest. This takes a very long time. In short: -It is also advisable to just go ahead and catch 14 Chocobos. That is because the more Chocobos you have the higher probability a Choco Runner will return! If you catch 14 Chocobos, and only have Three or less Max Level 5 Chocobos, release one and catch another. Continue until you have FOUR Chocobos which have a Max Level of FIVE. -Dispatch three Level 1 Choco Runners and make sure they return safely. -Level them up to Level 2. If you can't, catch more and see if they can. -Dispatch three Level 2 Choco Runners and make sure they return safely. -Level them up to Level 3. If you can't, catch more and see if they can. -Repeat for Levels 4 through 5. **When you've done that, the Chocobo Dungeon will open. I have no map or anything of this place, and it is very confusing. If you navigate around enough you'll be able to locate an AP Egg. After that, try and at least ATTEMPT to find the middle of the locked doors to the north. This one will open, revealing the Anything Eater. Defeat it, then proceed to open the rest of the doors on both sides of the middle door. After that is accomplished, you can FINALLY open the main door behind all of the other doors.

This game was not meant to be completed 100% in one game. If you DID NOT achieve 100%, simply alter your way of doings things. On your second play-through choose New Yevon instead of Youth League. Choose not to save the Guado, etc. It should give you the Percentage you need to get 100% the second time around. ===================================== -------- THANKS -------- ===================================== Me - For making the FAQ, obviously ;) CJAYC - Despite many criticisms, if it wasn't for this person, whoever they are, I probably wouldn't have made this FAQ.
