Speed Run Guide
This guide is intended for those on their second, third... playthrough.
This is the bare minimum guide to get the "Speedster" achievement for beating the game in under 15 hours.
Optional things in the guide
- Chests
I left a few in the guide that are quick to get and useful. But feel free to skip them.
- Secret missions
I left them in the boss commentary. But obviously you don't have to get these.
- One sidequest.
Explained in the "Helpful Hints" section below.
Helpful Hints
- Hold X and A during scenes to go though them faster.
- Holy bottles are your best friend. Use a lot!
(Repeed has a skill "Holy Breath" that extends the duration of holy bottles. It is on his Sonic Cleaver +1α)
- 10x experience is very helpful on this playthrough
- If you do the 10x EXP, after getting the "Speedster" achievement, grind to lvl 200 in the Labyrinth of
Memories for the "No More Grinding" achievement (you have to do one sidequest to open the Labyrinth.
It will be in the guide.)
- If you don't think you can make it, changing the battle difficulty to easy will help. Especially with the bosses.
- If you are confused with any directions, you can close your game and go to the full guide. That has more
descriptive directions.
And so it begins...

Wonder Symbol (or Shizel's Necklace) should be equipped. For Everyone else: Taunt 2 and set them to defend. And as many Blue Dice as you have equipped.I guess having Limit Bottles wouldn't hurt. Ok, now overlimit BLAH BLAH BLAH, TIDAL WAVE! BLAH BLAH BLAH, TIDAL WAVE! ...ad infinitum.The FS Chains are what boost the grade up to this." - Drache

| | | The tricky thing about this boss is that most of his moves either hit | | for a wide range area or the pull your characters into his range. | | This makes dodging and blocking a little hard, but not impossible. | | | | Stay away from him while he is in overlimit because his combos do a | | big amount of damage and to more than one person. Use items as needed | | and force Estelle to use Nurse as often as possible to make sure your | | allies have enough health to withstand his attacks. If you can get | | the timing right, unleashing a combo on him will stop his attack and | | net you more time to heal. | | | | Try to focus on getting your OL and unleashing it as soon as possible | | and also go for Fatal Strikes if they become available. If you can | | keep up the damage without getting wiped out, you should be fine. | | | |¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯| | Drops: Demon Bone x 1, Blue Talisman x 1, Knuckle Duster x 1 | | Secret Mission: Destroying the Bridge Supports. | +=========================================================================+

DEF is super low in comparison to everything else | | - oh Riiitaa~! Anyways, this guy is HUGE. He easily staggers you. You're | | a fly, really. Wind/Fire artes are HIGHLY recommended for this guy, as | | opposed to the regular hack 'n slash. His ground shaker attack is pretty | | annoying when he decides to trap you in one, however. He uses a wide area | | water attack that is *extremely* annoying towards the end. | | | |¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯| | Drop: Strange Stone, Amulet | | Secret Mission: Knock him down as he's getting on his hind legs to | | attack. | +===========================================================================+ Leave the dungeon.

Just surround | | and pound on her. She *will* get some hits on you, but really, she's | | pathetic. Even in overlimit. Only a couple attacks are annoying, but that | | is why you should have Raven/Karol/Estelle/Guardian Field around. When | | she's on her last leg, you find that she uses bigger, badder attacks. | | That's really the only time you should worry about her. | | | |¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯| | Drop: Rainbow Lens, Hunter's Monocle | | Secret Mission: Slash her when she uses her earthquake attack before she | | gets up. | +===========================================================================+

Free Run is your best friend here. If you use your own | | MA on him, he will activate his instead. He'll use it on his own as well. | | He will always Holy Lance after First Aid. | | | | He's only dangerous during overlimit, otherwise, don't be afraid to get | | near him and let him have it!

No, really. His attacks shouldn't hurt very | | much. I soloed him for a while with Yuri to get the secret mission, and | | deaths were pretty rare. Just block his attacks and watch out for his MA | | and you'll be just fine. Trust me. You've seen him four damn times before | | so one should think you know what's coming by now! | | | |¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯| | Drop: Demon's Seal | | Steal: Red Savory | | Secret Mission: Smack him down after he uses Blastia Bane. | +===========================================================================+

Round two, fight! This time, however, you have to watch | | his HP at the end. You MUST finish this guy with a Mystic Arte. Other | | than that, you'd better give this guy your all - especially those of you | | who didn't collect all the Fell Arms. If you did, you may want to hold on | | to many of your items and such for a bit longer. | | | | This guy is a heavy hitter. That much is certain. He's also harder to | | stagger. MUCH harder. Krona's Symbol is lovely. And anything along those | | lines. You want lots of items otherwise. But honestly, whack this guy | | with everything you have; it's harder than last time, but it's very much | | possible. I even took off my beloved Glory skill to see for myself. When | | he nails you with Big Bang, use a Treat IMMEDIATELY. | |¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯| | Secret Mission: Kill him with a Mystic Arte. | | Drop: Last Fencer | +===========================================================================+ | Enemy | HP | TP | P.ATK | P.DEF | M.ATK | M.DEF | AGL | W | R | |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Duke 3 | 528200 | 10000 | 1100 | 1150 | 1256 | 1078 | 1126 | - | - | |¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯| | You should be 75 or higher for this. Well, the non-cheap way. | | | | If you feel like you fail at life, use an All-Divide. This guy is brutal. | | He's entirely optional. Also, if you don't have Glory or something like | | it, have fun. I'm not crazy enough to do that on my first playthrough at | | level 69 and lower! On higher difficulties, this guy is plain cheap, but | | on normal, he's basically a stronger - much stronger! - version of the | | same thing. And make sure you can cure every status ailment under the | | sun! Way too cheap. Be very happy that Big Bang doesn't kill. | | | | However, he may use an MA that will once his health is low: Brave | | Vesperia. I've personally never seen the MA on normal difficulty, but | | I've been informed that it happens sometimes. So the way to avoid being | | killed by it is by spamming Gale Dog or Force Field with the Eternal | | Support skill on. | | | | The Cheap Way: Rita. O.L. Boost + Light Magic + Spell End. Meteor Storm. | | Go into overlimit, spam Meteor Storm, trigger OL again, spam Meteor Storm | | and keep doing it. You can win at about any level XD | +===========================================================================+ Playthrough Time: 11:25.----------. .----------------------------( 38 )-------------------------------. | `----------´ | | |You can continue from where you left off. You'll be back at Tarqaron.| Ex Dungeon || | `-------------------------------------------------------------------------´
Go to Phaeroh's Crag, then to the sage at Yormgen. To Dahngrest! Once you see
the scene, fly to the west (to Yurzorea) for a scene on Ba'ul. You'll now see
a little black warp thingy below you. Be sure that you're prepared! To get through to the end, you need 15 fake gald. You may have to pass through multiple times. You get them randomly from bosses and from chests. To open
chests, fight enemies. This also makes the warps appear. Once you make it to Yeager or Schwann, or Alexei or Duke later on, you can leave. The warps are a more gold color. I find that fighting more bosses gets you more Fake Gald, though you still have to be lucky. I can't tell you anything that will increase
your chances of getting fake gald. Sorry. This place is good for grinding to boot. And the gald you get is tremendous! Put Sephira on everyone (and as many Blue Sephira as you can) and watch the money climb to 10 mil for the achievement. Personally, I got 5 mil on a few runs. On 10x exp, this area makes grinding to 200 a breeze
So, once you get 15 gald... Here comes Kratos! Though he doesn't go "Hee hee hee", normally. His official name is Traitor to Heaven, but the box is going to call him Kratos. +===========================================================================+ | -- BOSS BATTLE -- | +===========================================================================+ | Enemy | HP | TP | P.ATK | P.DEF | M.ATK | M.DEF | AGL | W | R | |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Kratos | 512000 | 3800 | 869 | 950 | 820 | 775 | 520 | - | - | |¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯| | Recommended Level: 75+ (Whatever level you end up as is probably fine.) | | | | Strategy: Wow, he has all his obnoxious combos still. Yes, you'll find | | them obnoxious too. I swear this guy doesn't stagger for long either. He | | likes to simply jump outta them. However, he's fairly easy. Shining Bind | | is the only real thing to look out for, as it can kill you if you aren't | | high enough in level (I was nearing 100). | | | | He has the ability to stun you. If that happens, expect him to completely | | pwn you, even if you have Glory (and you should by now!). | | | | His ability to heal himself is annoying, but keep trying to smack him and | | he'll die eventually. | |¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯| | Experience: 30000 | | Gald: 15000 | +===========================================================================+
You'll get the Letter of Challenge (Legend) for winning. And an Achievement.
