Well, to know I just get Valefor,Ifrit,Shiva, and Anima killd.
But is it any way to get Zanmato faster,
well I mean, I have to Pay Jojimbo around 800,000gil :blink:.
Well I know it`s a bit, You know to use Zanmato,
but that is may only hope:cactaur::D
 
I hear that you have to make sure that when you summon Yojimbo, make sure he hardly ever dies when you're using him. Make sure you are consistently paying him high amounts of money as well.

I hardly think it's worth it to blow your money on it when you can just train your characters in FFX to be just as strong eventually though.
 
Yeah, a lot of people think Yojimbos one hit KO is the only way to defeat the harder dark aeons.

You just have to think. And a trick with Shiva is to make sure all your characters have high speed... Seriously, otherwise she will own you faster than you can say "holy crab sticks"

If you think those are hard, Try the Dark Magus Sisters without Yijombos help.


But, the trick with Yojimbo is as BustaMo said. Don't let him die and pay him HIGH amounts. They recommend 2million for the instant kill on Anima... That's to get an 99% certain kill I think... but still....

That gil is best used to get your characters with the best armor you can buy/create.
 
Yojimbo basically used Zanmato for me alot since I used him often and paid him a bunch. If you keep using him all over the place and keep paying him very high, he'll most likely use Zanmato for you.

The Dark Aeons though..ugh, goodness. Dark Magus Sisters murdered me, especially as they got me by surprise (I wanted to go to Mushroom Rock to kill monsters for the Monster Arena) and they popped up on me. Once I prepared for them though, I got them eventually.
 
Thanks!
But it isent that i don`t want to train my characters but only Auron and Yuna Have
Got maximum Power of the Clestial Weapons.
That Mean that The others can only get 9999.
 
Fight at the calm Lands arena... Can't think of it's name at the moment but it is the Ogre type monster and then with the items it gives you add SOS Regen onto one of the shields (four free slots) that can be bought at the Calm Lands Item shop in the centre and see you gil increase significantly! You can buy the shields for around 12,000 and then sell them for around 39,000 when you add SOS regen only to it :D
 
Yojimbo is a cheap way to win...instant kill takes all of the fun out of it!

Although there wasn't much fun in Dark Anima...I mean, having to use Aim to score a hit on something that big! Game physics are seriously screwed up there, methinks.
 
I never use Yojimbo for boss battles as it's cheating IMO.
That's probably why he does Zanmato when I give him 100gil xD
But I never really use him as he's unpredictable and just quite annoying to be honest.
I only use him in regular fights and if I'm bored too
 
What are these so called Dark Aeons and what is the point of fighting them? Does it unlock the Celestial weapons? Also I do no think I will do this because I just want to beat the game today I am at Sin.
 
Fighting the Dark Aeons unlocks Penance, one of the most insufferably difficult bosses ever to grace a Final Fantasy game. The Dark Aeons don't unlock the Celestial Weapons, but they DO give you some nice equipment if you're lucky.
Plus, its supposed to be a challenge - they're all considerably harder than any boss in-game. Really, you need to max your character's stats before you take them on - well, before you take on Bahamut, Anima and the Magus Sisters. Unless you feel like cheating and using Yojimbo, of course >>
 
Final Fantasy Wiki said:
Once Yuna and her Guardians escaped from Bevelle, they were branded as traitors of Yevon and orders were given to stop their pilgrimage and arrest them at all costs. Dark Yojimbo, Dark Anima, Dark Ixion and Dark Shiva can be found before the player fights Yunalesca. After defeating her at Zanarkand and gaining control of the Airship, the player is free to return to any location and look for new areas to visit. The rest of the Dark Aeons now appear to halt the journey, some block access to previously friendly locations, while others merely wander in inconspicuous locations, hoping the player would come across their path.

Each Dark Aeon boasts a very high amount of HP, with Anima taking the honors with 8 million. They each have close to maximum stats and are immune to all status effects. All drop weapons and armor with Break Damage Limit and Break HP Limit along with other high-level auto-abilities such as Ribbon. In the case of Yojimbo (whom you must defeat 5 times in a row), he can be fought an unlimited amount of times to fill up the player's inventory with many excellent weapons.

Some of the Dark Aeon's abilities are non-elemental, such as Dark Shiva's Diamond Dust and Dark Ixion's Thundaja. For example, when the player had Shiva summoned and Dark Shiva is about to use Diamond Dust, Shiva will not gain any HP.

Taken from Final Fantasy Wiki. That should answer your question nicely, My Love For Yuna.
 
Dark Yojimbo has to be fought five times. Five. Even if you save and die between battles you need to start over.
... 10,000,000 gil anyone?
 
Oh cool but what the penance give you if you defeat him? What items do you get for defeating the dark aeons? Are the celestial weapons the most powerful?
 
You can get rare items like Dark Matter and Ribbons, which protect you from all Status Ailments. You can also get a lot of gil and exp.
As for Peneance, I'm not dure. Look up Dark Aeons on gamefaqs. There's a walkthrough on them and Penance there.
 
Are the dark aeons only available in the international version of FFX? Because I'd love to take on the challenge of fighting them, but I all I have is the regular version and I've never come across them before o_O
 
Hmmm the dark aeons and penance look too hard so I am just going to go defeat Sin and finnaly after that I can play X-2. I do not think I will even bother fighting the dark aeons.

If you don't want to put the effort into training your characters (and I can't say I blame you...it took me hundreds of hours, literally, to get my characters up to sufficient strength) you could still kill Dark Valefor if you wanted to. You can kill that easily with Anima's Oblivion...just do it quickly.

Ixion isn't too bad, either...you have to fight it twice, but so long as you can deal moderately decent damage and have Auto-Phoenix, you can't really lose.

You can use Wakka's Attack Reels to do massive damage as well, apparently. I wouldn't know about that...I never bothered with Blitzball (because I suck at it...I'm more of a card game person) so I never bothered with Wakka.
 
Yeah but you want to know what the problem is I do not have Anima I can not seem to get her!!! Baaj Temple is not responding!!!!

Have you used every destruction sphere in all the temples including Zanarkand and got the treasure?

If so then in Baaj, all you have to do is press X on the statues infront of the Chamber of the Fayth and you can get in and get her.

If you've missed any destruction spheres, then you'll have to go back to the temples to use them, but then you'll run into some of the Dark Aeons. Dark Valefor blocks your path into Besaid Village, Dark Shiva blocks your path into Macalania.

You'll have to go back to Zanarkand after beating Yunalesca to use the destruction sphere there. In the part where you had to do the puzzles on the floor with the different colours. You'll have to do a similar puzzle in those rooms, this time only activating the white floor panels.

If you missed the treasure in Bevelle, you're screwed, because you can't get back in there.
 
I haven`t came to Penance yet.
And that is one singel reason,
Jojimbo never taik Zanmato longer.
I have 1 000 000gil.
But before i know it he taik Kozuka, and Wa.....(Don`t remember the name)
Well, he attak before i have payd him, why?
