Vanish and X-Zone
You have tried X-Zone I am sure, and have had very little success with it right? Well this trick
could make X-Zone your new
best friend. Instead of using vanish on yourselves, give it a shot on an enemy. Now throw out a
X-Zone spell, and you will
see exactly why this is so awesome! Anyone with Vanish cast on them becomes extremely vulnerable
to magic. This trick works
on almost every enemy AND boss in the game! Vanish can also be used with Doom, or Ragnarök Esper
for the same effect.
*NOTE* Do not use this trick on Doom Gaze. Though it is successful, you will lose the Bahamut Esper.
If at any time you use
the Vanish/X-Zone trick, it will prevent the end fight scripts from happening. This will cause
the Scene where you get Bahamut
to be eliminated. You need to fight Doom Gaze to the end. That said, you can still use Vanish on
him, and pound him into submission
with magic!
Brothers together, or brothers apart?
In the world of balance, after Sabin and Edgar are reunited, you will travel to Figaro Castle a
second time. The story is
set to you taking both brothers. There is a flashback, and a scene between them in the throne room.
Ever wonder what would
happen if you didn’t take them to Figaro together?
(*Note* this is not confirmed to be true in the PS1 version, just the SNES version)
if you leave either brother behind, and continue with your quest, Sabin will become distant and
cold. If you choose a party
consisting of Edgar and not Sabin, he will appear, and ask why he cannot come too. You will also
lose your discount in the
castle, even if Edgar is in the head of your party.
Lifting the shield's curse
When you get Locke in the WOR, take him to Narshe and visit the man hiding in his house. He will
hand over the Cursed Shield.
And believe me it is definitely cursed. It will tag you with almost every status effect in the
game. The only way to lift
the curse is to fight 255 battles with it equipped.To negate the status ailments; equip the shield
wearer with a ribbon. You
can then go somewhere like Solitary Island to have a lot of fast, easy fights .
As for the Cursed Ring ...despite the rumors circulating on the net,
this ring’s curse cannot
be broken. You will not get a Paladin Ring, or anything like that. However, you can learn X-Zone
at a rate of x5. (Just in
case you discovered you like the Vanish/X-Zone trick, and are trying to get everyone to learn the
spell.)
Dinosaur Forest
There is a forest just north of the Veldt , in the World of Ruin. Inside the forest, you will encounter
Brachosaur's and Tyranosaurs.
Of the two,
the Brachosaur is the worst to face. He can sneeze you out of the fight, cast a plethora of nasty status effects
in a single turn, or wipe out your party with Ultima. But if you have the Ribbon, you can avoid
most of the status effects.
If you want to win the fight fast, just use the Vanish/X-Zone trick. On a rare occasion he drops
a Economizer.
This reduces the MP of all spells to 1. Also with Locke in the party, he can steal a Ribbon.
Tyrannosaur's can either attack singly, or get you in a Pincer attack. The Back Guard does not
eliminate the Pincer either.
Their nastier spell is Meteor, which can wipe out a under-developed party. They can also wipe a
character with their bite
attack. Sometimes you can steal Imp's Armor, and on occasion, they drop a Imp's Halbred.
Both dinosaurs are worth a mother load of EXP, and with the Exp. Egg, you will reach high levels
in a few hours. Tyrannosaur's
give 5AP, and Brachosaur's give 10AP, making it fast and easy to learn those harder to get spells.

The elusive Cactrots
If you want to gain quick AP and a ton of GP, head to the desert south of Meranda. Here you will
occasionally run into Cactrots . These elusive little critters have only 3 HP, but are almost impossible to strike. Equip any character with a Sniper Sight,
to ensure you hit it. Also using Sabin's pummel, Edgar's drill, or even Setzer's Dice work too.
If you can defeat these thorny pains, Yyou will get 10 AP, and 10,000 GP! Not too bad huh?
