Thanks! I'm starting where Jeremy left off - on the Outer Continent (disc two)!

Chocograph
Choco dug up the treasure at "Abandoned beach." That's it, though.

-

I skipped frog catching.

-

Black Mage Village
I synthesized everything the guide told me to (Cachusha, Extension, Madain's Ring, and Rune Tooth). I already had a Reflect Ring.

-

I de-equipped all of Quina's armor upon returning to Conde Petie.

-

Hilgigars on the Mountain Path
Zidane equipped Rune Tooth and Power Belt, so he could also equip MP Attack, Man Eater, and Auto-Potion (he stood in the front row, by the way); Dagger and Eiko both were equipped with Lamia's Tiaras; and Vivi was equipped with Magician's Shoes, Magician's Robe, etc.

Out of Dagger and Eiko, Eiko got a turn first, so she used Float on my entire party. Dagger was killed right away, but, once she was revived, she used Tents on the boss until one of them worked, so the girls didn't have to continually cast Float. Zidane attacked, and Vivi used Bio.

-

I equipped Germinas Boots on Zidane again (Flee and Alert weren't mastered yet). Can't forget! Also, for the remainder of the disc, everyone stayed in the back row!

-

Iifa Tree
Watch out for Stropers! They look like tree monsters with branches for tentacles, and they can wipe out the whole party with one attack (Sweep)!

In preparation for Zombie status: Zidane equipped Mage Masher (for Flee), Ritual Hat, Adaman Vest, and Madain's Ring. Dagger still had Mythril Rod equipped (for Shell).

Getting Zombie status: after saving at a Moogle, I sent my party down the elevator. Below, Zidane ran around until he and company encountered a Dracozombie. Dagger used Shell on Zidane. Dracozombie burped on Zidane, and Zidane ran away. Somehow, everyone else was lost in the process. I saved again! No problems!

I almost forgot to equip Germinas Boots again!

I used the start and stop trick, so my party encountered only two battles while they walked to the bottom! I equipped Vivi with Spirit-raising armor before my party reached the moving platform.

-

Zombies
Two characters other than Zidane used Elixirs on two of the three Zombies. Zidane offed Eiko. Dagger and Vivi were killed off in the process by Zombies. Zidane used an Elixir on the last Zombie, ending the battle. I almost messed this up, though! Vivi almost survived! Everything happened so fast!

Dracozombie
Zidane, Dagger, and Eiko were in charge of reviving fallen members. Vivi used Stop until it worked (took six tries). I wish I had purchased Magic Tags prior to visiting the Iifa Tree, because characters who are killed with Zombie Breath can't be revived with Phoenix Downs unless Magic Tags are given to them first.

Soulcage
Elixir. Bye-bye!

-

After all that, Zidane was supposed to have mastered Auto-Potion, and he would have, if I had remembered to equip it before he fought Soulcage. He was six points away from mastering it, so I made Vivi Stop enemies on the Lucid Plains (mainly Goblin Mages) until Zidane mastered it. Didn't take long! Flee and Alert were mastered, too.

Auto-Potion has been available for a while, so the guide should have mentioned the necessity for mastering it with Zidane before my party reached the Outer Continent.

-

Amarant at Madain Sari
I optimized Zidane's armor and equipped him with MP Attack, Man Eater, and Auto-Potion (must be mastered) abilities. Counter can cancel out Auto-Potion, so I didn't equip Counter.

-

I left Madain Sari with the default party (no Amarant).

-

Mistodons on the Iifa Tree
Zidane equipped The Ogre, Adaman Vest, and Reflect Ring (for Auto-Reflect); Dagger and Eiko received the best armor for raising Magic Defense and equipped Auto-Potion; and Vivi equipped Glass Buckle and other Spirit-raising armor.

Everyone other than Vivi used Tents on the monsters or revived fallen members. Zidane used Soul Blade once or twice. Vivi used Stop. Pretty easy!

-

Disc three!

I love threads like these. I still remember Necro's old thread actually. I tend to miss this stuff at the time it occurs just because I don't check the individual game forums everyday, but I'm glad I caught this one. I tried this challenge myself a few years back but remember getting side tracked by school and such shortly after Lindblum. I might go back and try it again someday because it was really fun.

Good luck with this guys.

These are awesome, guys. I think both Croyles' and MBs posts are really well written. It really makes me wanna get back on the game, challenge or no challenge. If only Eyes on FF Plays IX was in June or July.

Let's just have some "EoFF plays CHALLENGES" next!

I mean, there are a few actually challenging parts in the "EoFF plays" threads already, but most of the silver and gold "challenges" are only stuff that's in fact very easy but boring and time-consuming, like "leveling everyone up to 99", "get every card", "get every equipment", "get every materia" and so on.

An "EoFF plays" focused completely on different kinds of handicaps instead would be so much cooler.


Putting that aside... wow you're progressing at an incredibly fast rate Marshall Banana! =O
