FFXIII-2: Post Release Discussion

That small chocobo platform is the only spot you need a chocobo to reach. All areas are open regardless of weather condition (though to get behind the giant turtle thing, you'd need to kill or weather-despawn it). I'm not sure what to tell you because opening the map is usually a pretty clear indicator of what spots you're missing.

**blindSharingan** · 2012-04-17 12:32

I had a similar thing happen. For me there was a tiny spot along the edge of the map near the giant cactuar thing and time gate down in one of the trenches.

**miokomioko** · 2012-04-17 12:34

I'm pretty sure you can reach everywhere regardless of weather... My only recommendation is rubbing your face around the border of the entire map (chocoback helps) and maybe rummaging around in the nooks/crannies of the Nomad Camp.

Is there an area that can only be reached under a certain weather condition?

it may be the trenches in the first part of the zone. If you already got to Yomi's platform, then make sure you go into all the trenches and not just jump over them

No, try to zoom in and see what you're missing.

**TacoTaru** · 2012-04-17 15:47

I zoomed in as far as I can go and everything is the shade of blue that means I've walked on it. Going to try the exploring the trenches again when I get home. That's the one thing I didn't go back over since I thought just walking next to them, above them counted.

**Gokulo** · 2012-04-17 16:17

Yeah, might be the trenches then.

Is that another old FF boss?

**Tobi** · 2012-04-17 21:41

Valfodr looks like the Arbiter of Time if anyone remembers that CS, I believe that's who it is.

**Bregor** · 2012-04-17 21:55

This is getting stupid. Wake me up when all this bullshit is free.

Spoiler: show

**Katlan** · 2012-04-17 22:51

he should really be fought alongside shiva

A few additional details on Final Fantasy XIII-2's Snow and Valfodr download content have surfaced from Famitsu.com and our usual early Famitsu source, Sokuho@Hokanko.

As detailed earlier in the day, the Snow and Valfodr download content will be released on the May 15th. Famitsu does not list a price.

Snow will have a new episode. The idea behind the episode came from the game's female staffers, character modeling director Hideo Kubota told Famitsu. The episode, whose theme is "Don't fight for me," will show the feelings Snow and Serah have one for one-another.

Director Motomu Toriyama said that the episode will clear up some mysteries behind the coliseum itself. We'll also apparently learn about Snow's mission as a L'Cie.

Valfodr appears in the second half of Snow's episode. He appears to be quite the foe, with the ability to use weapons, magic and summons. You'll apparently have to defeat him multiple times throughout the episode. Each time, he comes back at higher level and with additional abilities.

According to Toriyama, Valfodr was added to the game with the idea of having him appear as something like the Coliseum's last boss. He's the strongest opponent you'll face in the Coliseum, and when at his maximum level is the most powerful monster in Final Fantasy XIII-2 as a whole.

Snow has a 30% crystal conversion rate (this indicates how easy it is to make him into a party member). Valfodr's rate depends on his level, but at maximum level the rate is 100% (which should give you an idea of how hard it will be to defeat him).

When in your party, Snow is an attacker with a focus on punches and kicks. Valfodr is a blaster with the same strength as an attacker. Among his learnable arsenal are Hellflame, Hellspark, Hellstorm and Hellfreezer.

Sounds interesting, I wasn't expecting anything more than a coliseum fight.

That's..... amazing. I wasn't expecting anything this big tbh. Kinda sad that it's due for May... Are they gonna release something else inbetween?

Isn't Lightning's scenario due out in May too?

**Katlan** · 2012-04-18 08:28

by "hardest fight in 13-2" I hope they mean he is genuinely difficult and not given some stupid fucking mechanic, i.e. gilgamesh, to make him artificially harder then he actually is.
