Help Best customisations?

[ironic_lettuce]

Hi everyone

I'm hoping to complete FFX 100% for the first time and I know I'll need to customise my own weapons to be able to do this. The trouble is, I've never done the Monster Arena that much so not sure what the best customisations are and was looking for some advice! (I'm going to buy the 4 slot armour and weapons from Wantz).

For armour, I was going to customise and get everyone some armour that eats all the elements, and another one that has at least Auto-Haste, Auto-Regen and Break HP limit on it, but what else?

I would use the celestial weapons while outside the Monster Arena, but would want to customise my own for use in there, as gaining AP won't be of much significance, so it's a bit of a useless slot to have IMO.

For instance, Yuna's Nirvana has:
Break Damage Limit
Triple Overdrive
Double AP
One MP Cost

Whereas I'd rather customise a weapon to have:
Break Damage Limit
One MP Cost
Magic Booster
Magic 20%

I'm struggling to think what a good weapon would be for someone who is mainly a fighter (I know they'll all end up the same in terms of stats, but not to begin with).

I was thinking:
Break Damage Limt
Strength 20%
Counterattack
Piercing

I'm also going to customise some weapons to have Overdrive -> AP, along with Triple AP, so that I can use the Don Tonberry trick of gaining loads of AP when I do need it (although like I said, with the other monsters in the arena, AP won't be a concern for me).

Any advice would be great!

I know this is really old but anyways....the celestial weapons do superior damage to a weapon that has break damage limit. As for armour I think the best set up for insane bosses like Nemesis or the dark aeons is auto haste, break hp limit, ribbon and auto protect; although some people dislike break hp limit as they can't be bothered raising their hp to insane levels. If that sounds like you, replace break hp limit with defence +20. For Penance (considering you have the international version of the game) auto haste, break hp limit, auto protect and defence +20 is the best as if done correctly his annoying re-spawning arms won't attack you once; Penance doesn't use any status attacks unless you consider dispel a status attack and ribbon wont block that.

For the best AP farming weapons, Overdrive -> AP, triple over drive and triple AP. Volla!

Hope that helps someone,
cheers.
