Farming spots

[Wakabo]

I am sure others have figured it out themselves but the behe/tiger, there is a behe at the top of the hill by himself. I usually run up and wait for it to turn and take it down within 10 seconds for an extra 4k CP to go with the 6.6k on the other two.

If you can't preemp that fight I don't know how the heck fast and easy was applied to that fight. Great place to burn through your deciptols though.

[Atreides]

speaking of which, does anyone know a good place to farm Deceptisols and Ethersols?

Talking about the single behe at the top?

I just found out this lol.. If you enter the fight when it isn't preemp on the behe, just hit start and retry. It always put me behind the behe as its walking away and I was able to preemp it :D This is too fast.

Uh. What do you bitches do about gil? I can't seem to figure out a way to make tons of gil. Chocobo digging just ain't cutting it.

Also I think I asked this in another thread but I can't find it. Whats the most effective way to bring down Adamantoises?

I use the warp and go back to the city. ( Dont know the name off the top of my head.) Kill everything up to the adamantoise. Then back track. Can kill it also for a shot at a plat ingot. Thats the best way I can think of to farm. I think I avg like 300k+ a hour more if I got a Plat drop.

Edit for the Adamantoises the way I do it. Have Pro Shell Haste up, Van / Lighting on medic, Fang on Com and take out the legs. Can fast swap to 2 rav / 1 com if your fast. Once you drop it enfeeb the fuck out of it and 2 com 1 rav it. Rinse repeat.

You can one shot the legs by staggering it and getting it to about 600% (depending on how strong your characters are) using 3x RAV combo, and switch to COM and use your technique that takes all your gauge.

After the Adamantoise falls down, debuff it to death and then go back to 3x RAV to get it to 999% then switch to COM x3 to get it kill it.

If it does Ultima/Quake switch to SEN x3 to defend it and switch back.

Edit: this is if you don't want to use TP ;o If you do, just summon.

[Ronfar]

In my experience its faster for me to take the legs out. It's easier to get them to stagger vs the head. Maybe when im a higher level ill go back and try it like that.

[Despain]

Gonna give that a try thanks!

[Ronfar]

Forgot, Perfume, chips and HQ chips drops quite a bit along with stones that npc for 6k. Make sure you have TH on.

[Lbelle]

I just use death on the adamantoise

[sephir]

Get Mission 63, complete it (it doesn't increase the drop rates, farmed for days myself). Now, in the area where the mark was there are two big tortoises and also as you leave the area another two big ones to the left and right. What you'll want to do is kill all 4 of these. (skip the smaller ones with no tusks)

If you have Genji Gloves and fairly close to fully upgrading your group (ultimate weapons, crystarium fully unlocked) you can do this the Fang method.

If not have Vanille as your group leader, go SAB/SAB/SYN. Summon Hechatonch, the legs will break immediately, don't use gestalt mode unless you're fighting the one with a few dogs (in which case just hit Triangle right away to kill them off). Put up Imperil and then spam Death. It may take a few retries if you get unlucky but it's easy gil/traps.

Now, if you have Genji gloves and are upgraded you can use Fang as your party leader. Equip her with Genji gloves and any strength boosting accessories you have. Use Aegisol and Fortisol before engaging. What you'll want to do is use COM/RAV/RAV at first. Get the left leg staggered first and immediately use Highwind, this will kill the leg. You then switch to the right leg, stagger it, Highwind. Now, both are down you switch to Smart Bomb (SAB/RAV/RAV). Put Deprotect/Deshell/Imperil up and switch to RAV/RAV/RAV. Once it reaches around 800% stagger switch to COM/COM/COM to finish it off.

For the Ada with the three dogs just kill those off right away before starting on the legs. You may need to switch to Combat Clinic (MED/SEN/MED) for healing on this one.

And finally you'll have enough TP to kill either the left or right Adamantoise, but only one, don't use Fortisol or Aegisol for this one. These ones have higher HP on their legs so Highwind won't one shot them. Summon Bahamut, switch to Smart Bomb, put Deprot/Deshell/Imperil up. Switch to 3x RAV and build up the chain gauge. Once Bahamut's SP is about to run out go to gestalt and use his special move. Once again switch to Smart Bomb, auto hinder the ada and switch to 3x RAV. Stagger to 800% then to 3x COM to finish him off.

With this method kills are around 1m 20 to 2 mins depending on whether you need to heal or not and you don't have to farm TP between kills and also no retries unless you mess up.

Once you're done save at the save point closest to where mark 63 is, press start, quit, reload. The Oretoise will have respawned. This is the fastest method of making gil as Platinum Ingots have a drop rate of 25% (without Collector's Catelogue) and they sell for 150k a pop.

Oh and one last thing, if they're getting to use Quake (or the other special move) you're either not doing it correctly or you're not geared enough for the Fang method.

Mission 63 Gil farming stuff.

Is there anything worthwhile before this? I am still on chapter 11 and wanted to at least get a few more weapons capped in tier 2, but I can't find anything remotely good to farm for the 200k needed for just one of the *many* adamantites etc I need for upgrades.

I spammed mission 7 for 3 sets of the haste shoes, and tried to keep doing this to get more tiara/crowns to sell (15k/40k iirc), but after ~50 repeats, I had only enough for the 3 sets of shoes, nothing left to sell (keeping the bomb cores for upgrades). I farmed mobs all over the plains and anywhere else I could roam, but there was absolutely nothing of value from any of them (not counting the treasure orb items).

I really wanted to farm a ton of CP and gil during this part of chapter 11 before moving on, but the gil part of this plan seems non-existent at this point -_-

You get 550k~ from repairing Bhakti in Oerba in chapter 11.

Definitely planning on trying that tonight - that will cover 2 of the adamantites I need and some upgrade items. The person that mentioned the city farming earlier, is that part of chapter 11 also? I really don't want to advance the story too much more at this point before I finish a few more upgrades

I personally would suggest finishing the story before getting upgrades. I only had a few upgrades throughout the whole game before beating the last boss and it really wasn't hard. I two shotted it in fact. If you gear up prior to this you're just going to completely destroy the boss and it won't be very interesting.

You could try Chocobo Digging although personally I haven't bothered with it myself as I just waited till I was able to kill Oretoise.
