Welcome!

I'm Mr. 24 and I write guides for video games. I recommend clicking on the Table of Contents for the game you want, or using the Magic Search Box, rather than sifting through the posts for the one you need.

Enjoy!

Final Fantasy XII - 0 - Table of Contents and Introduction

A few words before I begin:
*First, thank you for coming by my blog and using this guide.
*Second, this guide cannot be posted anywhere but here, @ no24guides.blogspot.com. If you see this guide posted somewhere else, please tell me so I can sort it out.
*Third, this guide is as spoiler-free as I could manage.
*Fourth, use the Magic Search Box! Look for the enemy, map, or treasure you seek. It's surprisingly effective.
*Fifth, enjoy the game, and let me know if you see any glaring errors.

Format: This guide is broken into sections that mimic the in-game map. Each post corresponds to an area or areas, such as Rabanastre. Within each post are headings for every screen. Such as Rabanastre/Muthru Bazaar. Since each screen in the game has a unique name, it is easy to keep track of your progress and location with them. Under each unique heading I will list the monsters present on that map, as well as any Rare Game that might appear.
At the head of each post I will recommend Gambits and equipment for the coming areas, as well as a Treasure section that makes the player aware of rare treasure that might appear in the coming areas. Unlike previous Final Fantasy games, there's a random chance of a chest even appearing, and even if it appears there is a chance it will be gil or Potions, as well as a chance that it might be a useful item like a piece of equipment. If a chest fails to appear, or you open it and fail to receive the rare item, move two maps away and return, and you will have another chance at it.
Aside from the Walkthrough, I will make posts on accomplishing optional side quests, and posts that detail technical aspects such as Weapons and the mechanics of the Bazaar. However, I make no claim that this guide is exhaustive. I'm using the Playstation 2 version, and as such I cannot modify save states and delve into the code behind things like other specialized guides can. However, I will link out to quality specialized guides when relevant.
As for using the guide, I wrote the guide with a new player in mind, who hasn't played FF XII before, and I present information when it becomes relevant, rather than having a massive bulk of up front information.
