Chocobo Forest [Hot & Cold]
What are the best items you've found? Who else was as addicted to this part of FFIX as I was? What areas of the game did you like playing Hot & Cold best? (Forest, Lagoon, Air Garden, Paradise).

I think I got a megalixer, or an ordinary elixer from the Air Gardens... Its been a while, but I remember going, "Oh sweet, I'll just stay here and farm these". So yeah, it was probably a megalixer, because I wouldn't have farmed normal elixers.

The best I got was a Chocograph Piece.
But I loved it. IX was my favourite, and the Chocobo quest was no exception. Hours and hours and hours were spent trying to get this done. XD
Getting the Golden Chocobo at last was amazing. Chocobo Paradise was kickass.

Oh, I got the Chocograph Piece too! ^^ I remember getting excited about it. And of course, ethers. I always get excited when it comes to ethers...and yet I never really use them. =/ I guess I just like collecting them.
I like the Air Garden. And yes, I was extremely addicted to this mini-game! Anything that has to do with chocobos, I love!

The Chocograph Pieces were bastards for me. Besides, I just liked getting all those nifty items. You don't really get many Ethers throughout the game, so finding them within that mini-game was great.
And... an hour and a half? I hate you so much for that. XD

Too much time spent playing Chocobo Hot and Cold, it wa wondefully addictive. I remember going mad trying to get all the chocograph pieces and then finding most of them in the space of half an hour one day XD - that was a nice moment.
Out of the venues I liked the lagoon best, was easy to find stuff there, which meant less frustration all round for me!

Appart from Chocographs and Chocograph pieces, I think the best I got was a Megalixer from the Air Garden, but mine was something 280 down I really hurt my thumb digging that up xD
I love getting forced to stop by the moogle

S'pose the best I got was a Cachusha. I probably has 50+ Elixirs by endgame, and never used 'em much anyway. Plus, as soon as I found the last chocograph, I didn't waste anymore time playing -- chocographs are the ultimate prize.

Monsters drop quite a lot. In fact, I had so many, I made about 60,000g from selling the excess.
