    I am farming the behe/tiger spot right now and I was going strong, doing the fight easy and downing behe before he changed. Now every time I am fighting the guy he changes way too fast. Did I mess something up o.O?

    Don't you have to save and reload to do that KB thing everything? I think there's a spot in the tower that's slightly better than that and it doesn't require to save and reload everytime.

    Newp, they respawn if you run just past the save point.

    I had this exact problem. The solution, oddly enough, is to make your party members weaker, specifically the one who is attacking the Behemoth (probably your COM/RAV). KB triggers his transformation upon taking a certain amount of damage from my experience, and if you just remove a few +STR bangles or +MAG items from your RAV it should not transform before you can get off that last hit with your COM to send it into the air.

    Will give this a shot. I have +240 STR/MAG on my COM/RAV lol

    edit: and I shouldn't be complaining about how linear the maps were before, GP is HUGE and took me a good 30 min walk to get from the farming spot to mission 2 .-. god damn

    I was trying to do the first teleport sign hunt and it shows the mark on the same map, but it is like under a rock, and I just have no idea, lol. Cant figure out if I need to go down or what, the other direction takes you to some ruins.

    Yeah, you've got to go down those roots and keep going. I remember that marker confusing me for a good while also I think.

    Use the above website and it should show you exactly where to go. :D

    That one tripped me up too. I was trying to get on top of the ledge at one point.

    Quick question as I am not sure where else to ask about it... Is there a way that I'm not seeing to defeat those Boxed Phalanx robots that keep buffing/summoning more robots? This shit is kicking my ass and I'm not even certain if I'm supposed to be going this way... Everything else isn't that tough so I assumed so.

    You just need to focus on them first before the small robots. I think I usually went Rav/Rav/Com on them to break them fast, don't remember if you can debuff them but if yes then Rav,Sab,Com at first.

    The easiest way might be going in with a sentinel to soak damage while you kill the big one. I usually just blow the big one up with RAV/RAV/COM also though. Add a medic if needed.

    You're seriously struggling to them? I sat around letting them summon as many as possible just fucking about. Two Commandos with Bravery + Enthunder running around killing the summons in just a couple of hits. When I finally decided to kill the Phalanx it was basically impossible to die if I just used Blitz when I was surrounded.

    I killed it once but it took quite a while and a can of Aegisol. Because of how difficult the Boxed Phalanx was to take down (HP was barely moving with buffed COM/RAV/RAV), I made the assumption that I wasn't really supposed to be there at my 'level' and turned back before I ended up on the other side of a respawned Boxed Phalanx.

    If you're killing the smaller robots "in just a couple of hits" without seriously grinding, then I think this is not the place for me yet.

    Lighting had Commando maxed and most of Ravager done, rest were about the same. I had done all of the available missions up to that point so I'm sure I was ahead a bit HP-wise and stuff if you haven't done the same. But not by enough to make too big a difference. Was using mid-level Helter-Skelter and STR+240 in accessories.

    Anyone else dissapointed that you don't get to fight the giant in the opening Ch11 CS? I assumed he would be the super secret impossible to kill boss that FFs usually have.

    A little, looks like an "Omega Weapon" type boss fight.

    I feel like I'm doing something wrong, I'd grind so much quicker if Sazh would just cast haste -> brave -> enspell on lightning right away instead of going through the fucking cycles grarararar. I assume I'm not totally retarded and haven't missed some way around that or AI choice or something?
