THIS is even more boring than fishing AND I Get finger cramp, so far Ive done a grand total of 15 tiers. I so cba doing all 100 of these, if they get too difficult, chances are I'l quit, I hate anything that involves alternate button bashing. I used to do it with a pencil when I was playing stuff like this on my mega drive, but alas, that won't work on this....grr

Anyone bothered to do all 100....? Or if you quit, how far did you get before throwing in the towel?

I've got up to around 80.

What makes me laugh is the fact that you run faster when you aren't racing.

 

[Roy Mustang]

Augh, this is so annoying.

I can't remember, I did like 10 a day or something, I think I was around 45. Coz' I just got bored, I can't even remember what you get at 100.

Is it a high ether or unpurified ether or something...?

I'm not even sure the rewards are worth the frustration tbh... I mighyt just not bother even rtying to do anymore. Racing is easily one of the most annoying thing I have ever come across in a Final Fantasy >_>

I think that I did about three of those races and only received potions for them, so I've never felt inclined to venture any further and investigate the matter. Is there any purpose for continuing with the gruelling monotony?

 

[Bambi]

As far as Im aware, no. I don't see anything that I can't find multiple times eleswhere or has any significant use other than saving monies at the shops

Ah dang, this is the races and running crap you have to do isn't it? I only ever did about 3. I didn't really appreciate the sub-par rewards you got when finishing, so I never went back to complete the other 97. Seemed like a big waste of time filler for me.

hmm i dont think ive ever done this sidequest, i really should play XII again. What exactly do u do?

 

[Bambi]

You gotta go back and talk to Rikken (in Balfonheim) he will challenge you to a race against him Elza and that rat thing. Then you have to run alternating O & X also using the O to go left and the X to turn right. It's irritating

 

[Big Casino]

Ahhhh that does sound vaguely familiar actually. Sorta like the races in IX isnt it? If i still had my ps2 i could load up my save for XII ><

Here ya go, all the prizes, took about 5 - 10 mins to write up.

Prizes table:

The table lists each available reward for each Tier, the type depends on the Tier's unit digit, the quantity you actually recieve depends on the Tier's 10 tens digit/ The only Tiers that have a set reward are a multiple of 10.

So besides the items you get, you'll make around 32,700 gil from it.

Hope that helps!

Currently at no. 80. It sucks that I can't use the Analog Sticks, or just bury an axe in that annoying little critter's back. Doing it 'cuz I'm bored.
