Hey guys i need help customizing my weapons and armors

wat would be THE BEST abilities in weapons + armors??

can i just do it w/ a 4 open slot weapon and armor?

or would legendary weapons be better?
 
Well the best weapons would be the Celestial weapons, can't get much better than those :P

As for armour abilities like breka damage limit, break HP limit and Ribbon would be what i would personally consider "the best"
 
I found evade & counter very useful....especially when combined with a status effect like darkness.
 
For me I would get a weapon with piercing, break damage limit, counter attack and magic counter

as for armour I would get break hp limit, break mp limit, ribbon, curseproof and any other attribute
 
If you're going for the storyline and ignoring the extras(Dark aeons, arena and whatever) then Break HP limit is quite useful. But If you're going for them extras, forget about it because many of the bosses you encounter will instantly kill you/ deal 99999 dmg/petrify you and so on...
 
no, im not just going with the storyline, im at the arena right now and i caught every single monster. What I'm trying to do right now is to get all my characters perfect (literally..).

So does anybody have any ideas??
Ive seen some people have (for their armor) break hp limit, auto-haste, auto-protect, and auto-shell... is that good? / or godly?

And.. for the weapons, would it be the samething if i got a 4 open slot weapon and put abilities in there compared to a celestial weapon? Is there anything hidden / special about celestial weapons?
 
The Celestial weapons are the best in the game...

And I'd think

Auto-Phoenix
Auto-Haste
Break HP Limit
and Ribbon

would be the best 4 abilities for armour ^_^
 
Alot of the items for the best abilities are in the Calm Lands/Arena. =D.

Steal/Mug the bigger enemies and you should get some important stuff to upgrade your weapons with.
 
ok, but wat would be the best stats / attributes to max? (since u can only max like.. 3 or 4 out of all of them cuz the sphere grid isnt big enough)

is break hp limit ne good?? i heard from a lot of other places that it suks ..
 
How can it suck? if your normal attack without Break dmg. is 9999 then you can equip that character with Break dmg. With Break damage limit you will get a higher chance of overkilling. I actually can't understand what you want :huh:
(My Tidu's regular attack is 99,999. That's how far your break damage limit can go)

Break HP limit is very useful when fighting bosses and Dark Aeons. Otherwise it isn't really needed

Well actually the best armour for fighting penance would be:
Auto-Haste
Auto-Protect
Auto-Potion
Defence +20 percent
 
i never said break DMG limit suks.. i said HP.
and i do 99,999 w/ ALL my characters. Ive beaten the game already, but I have a saved file before that, so I'm doing all the sidequests and extras.
I'm trying to make all my characters perfect, so what would be the best 4 abilities on a weapon?? and armor??

What about the stats? What should i max? since you can only max a few stats
 
I would say health is a must,followed by strength or magic depending on the character and defence or magic defence for the respective characters

basically

Health: all
Strength:tidus, wakka, auron, kimahri and rikku
magic:lulu, yuna
Defence:tidus, wakka, auron, kimahri, rikku
magic defence:lulu, yuna
that is how I power up my characters mostly and it works well
 
Best armour overall: Break HP Limit, Auto-Haste, Auto-Protect and Ribbon. (Downside is building HP is monstrously time-consuming)

Ultimate Arena Creation armour: Auto-Haste, Auto-Protect, Auto-Potion and Auto-Phoenix.

For the PAL/International version of FFX, making these armours will stand you in good stead for the Dark Aeons/Penance: -

Ultimate Dark Aeon armour:
Auto-Haste, Auto-Protect, Auto-Phoenix and Ribbon/Stoneproof. (Useful for all Dark Aeons with the exception of D. Yojimbo)

Ultimate D. Yojimbo armour:
Auto-Haste, Auto-Protect, Defence +20% and Ribbon/Stoneproof.

Ultimate Penance armour:
Auto-Haste, Auto-Protect, Auto-Potion and Defence + 20%. (can also be used for D. Yojimbo if your intention is to create as few armours as possible)

Is there anything hidden / special about celestial weapons?

They reduce the defence stat of ANY ENEMY down to 0 so long as it's a physical attack not an Overdrive assault. However, they don't carry the Piercing ability and neither can you customise it on the weapon. Therefore, maximum damage cannot be attained when against heavily armoured foes whilst at low stats unless you've paved the way using Armour Break. However, when your guys are dealing 99,999 damage to nearly everyone, Armour Break is no longer required.

What about the stats? What should i max? since you can only max a few stats

Str, Def, Mag Def, Agility and Accuracy are parameters in which I believe you should max out. Magic is secondary and you can keep Evasion in the hundreds. HP is purely your decision.

For Dark Aeons/Penance, your Luck stat should be maxed out to the minimum of 130.
 
thanks FFguy and feng yun, that's what I needed to know.

Just one last thing, what is a good way to get gil? because i've lost a lot after bribing for chocobo wings
 
in my opinion the best ways are to battle monsters in hard areas to get rare items to sell for gil, alternatively you could make strong weapons for selling or just train for a while
 
Defeating Mimics inside treasure chests while equipped with a weapon with the Gillionaire ability will net you 100,000 gil each time. Which makes them a great way for earning easy gil as their appearance rate is very good in the Omega Ruins. Rikku's Celestial Weapon: The Godhand will already have this ability.

To make a profit in the Monster Arena, sell the equipment that were dropped by these monsters/creations. Or just keep those that are useful such as weapons with Break Damage Limit/Triple AP/Overdrive > AP and sell the duplicates. Triple AP + Triple Overdrive + Overdrive > AP is a potent combination for amassing incredible amounts of AP especially if you're training with Cactuar King or Don Tonberry in Stoic/Comrade mode.
 
yea, ive just been fighting in the monster arena and just sold off the stuff i didnt need.
i guess it just takes time. thank you everybody.
 
well heres the armor i used

break hp limit
auto protect
auto haste
hp+30%
this armor has had PERFECT results for the arena creations (i used them in 1 on 1 fights)
that was just for fun though

as stated
Auto-Haste
Auto-Protect
Auto-Potion
Defence +20 percent

is the best ribbon isnt really needed i guess since you could auctually summon a aeon ot get past some moves. but im just saying what i have seen on youtube videos since i dont have dark aeons or peneance
