So anyone else beat Penance and the Dark Aeons?

March 8, 2008, 1:22 AM

Title basically asks the questions heh. Has anyone else? I bought the game in 2002 if Im not mistaken and I didn't beat Dark Yojimbo (I had beaten the other Dark Aeons with Zanmato ages ago) until last year. And I did manage to kill Penance last year also. It wasn't so much fighting them as it was training so I can stand a chance against them!

I still haven't beat Dark Valefor >_> I could, IF I could summon the Magus Sisters in time. Sadly, it always kills Yuna before her first go

Give you a hint, don't rely on your Aeons! It will take time but you need to raise all you character attributes (well at least 3 of them, preferably Wakka, Auron and Tidus, best combination) to 255 and then you need to get their celetrial weapons and some aromor that has +20% defence, counter, auto potion, and something else I forget =\

It's not just my Aeons that are over powered, my main 3 are too, but I lack theBreak HP Limit, and the Break Damage limit abilities for all of them, so with only 9999 health...it's a quick death.

I only had 9999 health

you don't need break HP Limit, although break damage is a must; what are your attributes? Like Strength, Defence yadda yadda. Forget Aeons but, they wont stand a chance against Penance, they are your fail-safe against Penance incase he uses Judgemnet Day (Instant Death, looks cool too!)

Iv done all up to Dark Anima - who Im too scared to try after the nightmare that Dark Bahamut gave me haha

I can't believe how long that took

I swear I live at the battle arena trying to farm Dark Matters and nodey things. I ended up beating Bahamut with Yuna & Wakka because Auron got repeatedly had off by stone

I need one more Ribbon.....only 99 dark matters to go, then I might feel ready to face Dark Anima

Not looking forward to redoing those mountain trials tho

I managed to beat him once, but considering the amount of effort and time required to be ready for even a five minute match with the thing... that one time was more than sufficient.

Once getting relevant abilities synthesized into armour etc, the battle was overall generally disappointing. Stupid FFX upgrade system. >=(

Bah I have a collection of armours with all sorts on them

I wish you could swap abilities then I would be fine, Id make them then realise I needed an extra slot because I used my last slot on stone proof for Auron which Dark Bahamut totally bypassed which means I will need to make another for when I eventually face Anima

It was like my second file so I have lots of fuck ups Im still trying to fix

Im getting there and I refuse to let it beat me

nope not got that far yet lol i've just managed to whip dark anima, but cant seem to get past bahamut and the magus sisters are a nightmare lmao done everything else lol

I could never manage to beat any of them bar Dark Valefor, and even THEN I had difficulty. My Yuna kicked ass like, the magus sisters pounded the crap outta it.

lovely lovely magus sisters
