III. INTRODUCTION
=============================================================================
This document contains an in-depth walktrhough that is designed to help the
player get the most out of Final Fantasy X. This walkthrough will eventually
follow through the entire game, and will cover every secret and side quest.
Take advantage of the game's in-game help feature. Every spell, ability, and
overdrive in the game is described in detail in the Help menu's reference
section. You should definitely learn the Scan spell; it describes, in
detail, the stats and weaknesses of any enemy it is cast on. The spell can
easily be learned within the first three hours of the game.
=============================================================================
IV. Zanarkand
=============================================================================
TREASURE: Longsword.
Talk to either the group of girls or boys to decide on a name for the main
character (who I will refer to as Tidus in this walkthrough). Once you've
talked to the surrounding people, it'll be time to start the game. Travel
through the crowd of people and the game will commence. Once Tidus has
fallen, talk to the red cloaked man and begin running. Auron will give you a
sword and your first battle will begin. After a few battles against the
Sinscales, you'll encounter a boss.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS: Sinspawn Ammes
Take advantage of Auron and Tidus' overdrives, and try to pull them off for
extra damage. It is unlikely that the boss will be able to defeat you
because it only uses Demi, but still take necessary precautions. Once each
tentacle is defeated, the boss will die.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Hidden amongst the shells behind the the boss's remains there's a save
point, before you reach the battle where you're surrounded. Thanks to Alan
Knight (tsg@rpgamer.com) for this tip.] Keep running and fighting as you go.
When you're surrounded, just keep defeating enemies until Auron points out
the mechanism. Destroy it and, after a short sequence, you'll end up in a
strange area. Swim down using the O button.
=============================================================================
V. Al Bhed Ruins
=============================================================================
TREASURE: Potion ×5, Hi-Potion ×2, Flint, Withered Bouquet, Ether, Al Bhed
Primer Vol I.
Swim through the ruins, searching for treasure as you go. You will encounter
some Sahagins on the way through. This battle will turn into a battle
against the huge Geosgaeno. Simply attack this beast three times and the
battle will end. Make your way to the circular room and explore the south
west corner to find Flint. Before starting a fire, explore the northern room
for more treasure. Start the fire and, when it goes out, you'll be thrown
into a boss battle.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS: Klikk
Attack normally for a few rounds. When the woman joins you, have her use
Grenades on the enemy. If she runs out, use the steal command to obtain
more. Tidus should heal himself and the women, and attack physically until
the boss is defeated.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
You'll end up on a ship when the battle ends. Talk to the woman to learn
about the sphere grid. Explore the ship for treasure and talk to the three
men to obtain items. Talk to the woman again to begin a diving operation.
Dive down deep and swim through the machinery. When you reach a certain
depth, you'll encounter a boss.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS: Tros
Attack physically and throw grenades when the enemy is near you. When it
goes behind the machine, use the Stand By command. Eventually, in the
Trigger Command menu, Tidus will be able to use Pincer Attack; you should
definitely use this command when it becomes available. Beware that this boss
can hit pretty hard, so be ready with Potions for healing.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
When you are back aboard the ship, a story sequence will start, and when its
over, you'll be sucked into the ocean.
=============================================================================
VI. Besaid
=============================================================================
TREASURE: Antidote ×4, Moon Crest, Phoenix Down ×5, Hi-Potion ×2, Rod of
Wisdom, Al Bhed Primer Vol II, Brotherhood, Seeker's Ring, 400 Gil, Ether,
Remedy.
Travel up the beach and talk to the man named Wakka. Talk to the other team
members and then explore the surrounding area for treasure. Talk to Wakka
again and he'll join you. Make your way through the linear path, and when
you jump into the water, dive down and explore the shallows for treasure.
Continue down the path and enter Besaid village. Explore the town for
treasure and stop by the item shop to re-stock on curative goods. Go to the
Enter the temple and talk to the priest. Go to Wakka's house afterward and
go to sleep. Go to the temple when you wake up and enter The Cloister of
Trials. To get through the Cloister, simply examine everything that can be
examined and insert things into slots, as the in-game tutorial will explain.
Be sure to look for the Rod of Wisdom on your way through. You will meet
Yuna, Lulu, and Kimahri in the final room. Talk to Yuna at night and then
talk to Wakka to go to bed. In the morning, Wakka will give Tidus his
Brotherhood sword. Leave the village with Yuna and the rest of the party and
Travel through the winding paths of Besaid island. Talk to the people
surrounding the ship and they'll give you many useful items for your journey.
=============================================================================
VII. Kilika
=============================================================================
TREASURE: Potion ×4, Remedy, Al Bhed Primer Vol III, Mana Sphere ×2, Scout,
Luck Sphere, Remedy, Elixir, Hi-Potion, Red Armlet.
After playing around with the binoculars, go down the stairs and explore the
lower deck for treasure. You can get an Al Bhed Primer and meet chocobos in
the Power Room. If you want, you can donate to O'aka to open up a shop. Go
upstairs and talk to Yuna. Sin will attack the ship and the party will have
to fight him.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS: Sin
Defeat two of the Sinscales and then have Yuna summon Valefor. With
Valefor, attack Sin every round with spells or normal attacks, and use his
overdrive when it becomes available. Don't defeat the lone Sinscale or Sin
will just summon three more to annoy you.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
After defeating the boss, Wakka will dive into the sea and rescue Tidus.
Another underwater boss fight will begin.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS: Sinspawn Echuilles
Attack the boss physically, and keep a close eye on your HP; use potions
accordingly. Don't worry about defeating the Sinscales; although they're a
nuisance, they aren't nearly as big a problem as Echuilles. It might take a
while to deplete all of this boss's HP, but it will eventually happen if you
remain consistent in your strategy.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
When you sale into Kilika's port, you'll immediately notice Sin's horrible
wrath. Follow Yuna and watch her initiate the grievous Sending. In the
morning find Wakka and talk to him. Buy stuff at the store and search for
treasure before heading to Kilika woods. Enter the woods and take the
immediate east path for treasure. Head west and take the nearest northern
path for an item. Continue following the path and you'll meet a group of
people conversing. Talk to the lone man once the others leave to receive an
item. Just west of the man lies in wait the fearsome Lord Ochu. You don't
have to fight it, but if you do, you should use Fire elemental attacks and
hit it with great physical force. Talk to Luzzu once you win the battle to
receive an Elixir. Head north and take the west path to find treasure. Go
back east and talk to the man to receive another item. Follow the path north
to reach the stairs. Travel up the stairs and you'll encounter a boss.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS: Sinspawn Geneaux
Take out the tentacles first using physical attacks. Once the tentacles are
gone, have Yuna summon Valefor. He should use Fire every round until his
Overdrive becomes available. Should Valefor be defeated, bring in Lulu and
have her cast Fire while other strong physical fighters fight it.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enter the temple and talk to Wakka. After the sequence, walk into the
Cloister of Trials. Once down the elevator go north through the door. Take
the Kilika sphere and place it into the pedestal near the door. Remove the
sphere and the fire will extinguish. Go north and put the sphere into the
recess. Take the green sphere and put it into the wall. Now touch the
northern wall to continue. Take the Kilika sphere off the eastern wall. In
the next room step on the glowing floor panel to move the pedestal. Now put
it on the glowing panel and remove the Kilika sphere and put the glyph sphere
in its place. Remove the remaining Kilika sphere and put it into the empty
recess. Pick up the destruction sphere and put it into the previous Kilika
sphere's place and get the chest. Go back and get a Kilika sphere and put it
into the slot next to the door. Remove it and walk up the stairs. Attempt
to exit after talking to Wakka and Yuna will emerge with a new Aeon, Ifrit.
Walk out of the temple and go all the way back to Kilika town. Do some last
minute shopping and head to the docks and board the ship.
=============================================================================
VIII. Luca
=============================================================================
TREASURE: Hi-Potion ×3, Al Bhed Primer Vol VI, 600 Gil, Tidal Spear, Phoenix
Down ×2, Magic Sphere, HP Sphere, 1000 Gil.
Get the hidden treasure along the west wall. Outside of the cabin you can
talk to O'aka and donate to him. Go south to the power room and visit the
chocobos. Go upstairs and talk to Yuna. After talking to Yuna, find Wakka
and Lulu. Keep approaching them to hear their entire conversation. Touch
the Blitzball on the deck and try to learn the Jecht Shot. Talk to Yuna and,
after a short story sequence, the game will prompt you to save. Go meet the
Maesters and the game will once again prompt you to save. You'll appear in
the Auroch's locker room. Learn about Blitzball and then follow Yuna out to
town to search for Auron. Circle around the docks on either the east or west
side. Look for treasure and talk to people on your way. You'll need to look
behind crates to find hidden treasure. Once you've made a round trip head
south in the central area. Walk east and then north east for a short talk
with Yuna. Get the chest and then head back the way you came. Follow the
read arrow on the map into the cafe. After the cafe sequence follow the red
arrow on the map all the way to dock four; you'll have to fight enemies on
the way. Once on the ship you'll be required to fight a boss.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS: Oblitzerator
Have Lulu cast Thunder on the crane to give it power. When it's finally
functional, have Tidus use it under his Trigger Command menu. This will
greatly reduce the boss's HP. From this point, simply have Tidus and Kimahri
attack physically while Lulu casts Thunder.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Return to the locker room and talk to Wakka to begin the Blitzball game. The
game will last about ten minutes; it doesn't matter if you win or lose, just
"do your best!" After the game Tidus and Wakka will fight Sahagins. Once
they've defeated the seemingly endless flow of aquatic beasts, it'll be
Auron's turn to fight. Simply kill off the fiends until Seymour summons his
Aeon and finishes them off. After a talk with Auron, head toward the cafe
and take the north east path. Speak to Yuna and after the sequence you'll
end up on the Highroad.
=============================================================================
IX. Mi'ihen Highroad
=============================================================================
TREASURE: Hi-Potion ×3, Antidote ×6, Ice Brand, Remedy, Lv. 1 Key Sphere ×2,
600 Gil, Eye Drops ×2, Al Bhed Primer Vol VIII, Mega-Potion ×2, Heat Lance,
Thunder Blade, Scout, Mars Crest, Fortune Sphere, Al Bhed Primer Vol IX.
Talk to everyone you meet on your way; many of them will give you treasure.
Thoroughly explore the path, and collect hidden treasure scattered all over
the road. Talk to the women on the side of the road. If you decide to
engage her, you'll fight Ifrit using Valefor. The fight can be challenging,
just try to use Ice attacks and use your Overdrive as soon as it's available.
If you win you'll receive an Echo Ring and a Seeker's Ring for losing. After
a long walk, you'll reach Rin's Travel Agency. Stay the night and in the
morning walk outside and a boss fight will begin.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS: Chocobo Eater
Cast Haste on everyone in your party. Have Lulu cast Fire every round.
Either Auron or Kimahri fight physically every round, while Tidus heals and
casts Haste. You need to act quickly in this battle. Don't equip Ice
elemental weapons; that's the boss's strength.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can ride a Chocobo for free after the battle, if you want. To get some
treasures you will need to use a Chocobo. Once back on the road look for
Chocobo feathers and step on them to make the Chocobo jump to an unreachable
treasure. When you've explored the old path, head to the gates. Donate 100
Gil for a Scout, 1000 for an Ice Lance, and 10000 for a Moon Ring. Walk away
from the gate and Seymour will appear and give you permission to pass.
Head to the command center. Talk to people on the way to receive treasure.
Watch out for the enemies in this area, some of them are tough; keep your
Sphere levels up to date at all times. Once you get to the elevator, talk to
Luzzu before using it. Once past the cannon area talk to the Maesters and
collect treasure. Talk to the man in the far eastern area to start a boss
fight.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS: Sinspawn Gui
Use spells and Wakka's attacks to take out the head. Then destroy the arms.
Once they're gone aim at the body. This is a fierce and long battle, so be
ready with lots of Potions and cast Haste on everyone to speed it up.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the boss is finally defeated, a sequence will occur, and the boss will
revive. You have Seymour in your party this time around. Use his upper-
level spells to quickly destroy the creature. Walk around the beach talking
to people and collect the treasure. Exit to the north east.
=============================================================================
XI. Djose Temple
=============================================================================
Make your way through Djose Highroad, collecting treasure and talking to
people as usual. Talk to Gatta before entering Djose Temple. Explore the
east and west rooms of the temple for treasure. Enter the Cloister of Trials
when you're ready. Remove both Djose Spheres and put them into the recess to
open it. Remove the spheres and put them next to the flashing object on the
east wall. Move the pedestal underneath the ceiling to make the sphere on it
more powerful. Insert it on the east side of the door and put the two
spheres on the wall onto the pedestal. Push the pedestal onto the lightning.
Jump across the gap and push the pedestal. Jump back and step on the
flashing light in the west side of the room to get the pedestal back. Take
the spheres and put them into the recesses on either sides of the first room.
Put the powered up sphere into the west recess. Step on the middle slot to
be brought up to the second floor. Move forward and simply push each
pedestal to open a door. Find the Destruction Sphere and use it for
treasure. Move up the stairway and talk to people. Move toward the exit and
Yuna will appear with a new summon, Ixion. Get the treasures from around the
temple and get the chest inside the inn. Go into the temple and enter the
west room. Talk to the nun to wake Yuna up. Walk south and go north to
enter the Moon Flow.
...More to come soon!
