Also a helpful hint if you wish to build up an aeon for the Arena and Dark Aeons - build Anima's Strength to at least 180 first. This allows her to kill Kottos in one shot with Oblivion guaranteed (range is about 445,000-465,000, Kottos having 440,000). Then you can just throw a Distiller on Kottos with anyone and Grand Summon Anima to collect Spheres a lot faster. I have Rikku and Yuna with First Strike weapons, so they will always get the turns to do this before Kottos responds, Rikku will always go first so she can throw a Distiller, then Yuna can GS Anima for Oblivion. Yuna should be in Comrade Overdrive mode. Saves you a lot of time, 40 Spheres in less than 2 minutes.

Doing it this way saves you a lot of Trio of 9999 items for later.

I never thought that beating the game without using the sphere grid was possible.

A guy named darkkefka tried it for the international version. Maybe it was just me...but I thought he had a trailer for dark Anima w/o SG.

Yeah Dark Kefka. He was my inspiration for trying an NSG in the first place. You basically need to build up Luck on the Magus Sisters in order to do enough damage, in fact they need a minimum of 185 Luck to guarantee a critical hit on Dark Anima. Also you'll have to have all the rest of your Aeons built up to take some attacks and save Phoenix Downs, since Dark Anima has high Agility.

BTW, this is my current Ixion to date. Its more than strong enough to take on Dark Valefor, but it will be a while before I can take on other Dark Aeons:

HP 21121
MP 1074
Str 245
Def 195
Mag 200
Mag Def 100
Luck 20
Agility 190
Eva 114
Acc 88

Once I max out his Str, I'll work on Def next, then probably should be strong enough to be used as a Hellfire meatshield for Dark Ifrit.

The first time i played, i did something like that, but i could only get to mihean highroad before i actually needed the sphere grid.
