Finally, Order of ambrosia

I just got the hightest rank of FFXll, Order of ambrosia. In other words, i beated everything that could be beated, including Yiazmat, Omega Weapon and Zodiark; obtained every spell, map, etc, etc, etc. Except a Danjuro,the infamous almost impossible to obtain dagger, and the Zodiac Spear, just because this was my firts playthrough and i didn't know about the treasures that couldn't be openned (i wonder who came out with the idea... ). All in all, i found the game very deep and enjoyable, but also found a lot of flaws that could be fixed in the International version, like the vanish spell, or the lack of "break damage limit" for the lv3 Espers, and if they are, i even could take in consideration to import the game. Well, i think i will finish this entry with my most-less memorable and funniest moments in FFXll:

  • Most: The battle with Ultima in the great crystal, with my characters underleveled, wearing regular equipment and my other Espers, hearing every moment the Esper battle theme, nothing more to say. (runner up: (spoiler i suppose) the moment when Larsa decides to betray his brother in the Sky fortress bahamut)

  • Less: Discovering that "Schaton", the "overdrive" of Ultima was capped at 9999. Whoever though of this should be fired, really, why 250 points of magic power (only rivalized by the Zodiark 50k damage and the black hole/luminescense concurrences), without count how hard is to trigger, if the damage would be equal to that of a normal character in two seconds, why? .(Runner up: The fact that i noticed a serious lack of story segments after the events at Mt Bur Omisace, until Old Archades).

  • Funniest:When i got my first quickening, i didn't know how to use combos, so i just pressed continuously the R2 button without getting results. I felt very... when found out that the combos could be made pressing the other buttons. (Runner up: my characters fighting Zodiark, zodiark hp less than10 %, zodiark inmune to physical damage, only three allies left. I used the trick of reflectgaand Scathe on all my allies and left only a bit of hp in zodiark, i though i would win, but then, almost inmediately after my scathe is reflected, he uses his own scathe on my three characters wipping them out. Funny, isn't it).
