Help [FFX-2] Chapter 5... give me some guidelines...

[Demon]

I'm at the very beginning of Chapter 5 and kind of want to fly through this game. I have the official strategy guide, which makes it easier, but that strategy guide is mostly focused on 100% completion. I'm not aiming for 100% completion, I simply want to view a lot of the story while completing the game at a fast pace. The problem is that Chapter 5 looks very long and complex, and I'm also only at level 34 on character leveling.

So I was wondering if someone could help give me a plan on where to go and how to beat this game. If you give me a thorough answer, I might perhaps even rep you... though whether it affects you or not is up to the system and all that.

shrugs...

I used Split Infinity's faq.
It's pretty comprehensive and doesn't have spoilers.
Of course I was interested in getting 100 percent..even then I missed a couple of things as I wasn't using Split's faq initially but used one I found on IGN that missed a couple of things.

shrugs.

Most of the faqs are built around getting 100 percent so I doubt you'll find one that avoids using it as its basis.

You could use this if you're not afraid of spoilers:

So have fun....

I suggest going through all the areas and levelling up to level 50 or so. You'll see storyline and level. Really, you'll find it difficult completing the game before level 55. And considering you have a few relatively tough bosses ahead, it's worth your time to level.

If the chapter 5 enemies are too tough for you, I suggest going into the Via Infinito. In the last area before Bevelle temple, where you activated the elevator, go to the right. The enemies in this optional dungeon gradually become more powerful, so you can find a floor out of the 100 available that is suitable for you. You do need to progress through the weaker enemies first though.

X kept me playing to the end, but I'm already bored with this game... and bored with pointless leveling up. But I guess I'll have to spend about 7-10 hours on the chapter (?) and 7-10 hours leveling up (?). I generally struggle with tough bosses and while some people might beat them on level 55, it might take me to level 60-65.
