Excalibur 2

[Gidan89]

What is Excalibur 2?
Excalibur2 is Steiner's strongest weapon. But this is the hardest weapon to receive. In order to get Excalibur2, you have to go to Memoria, the last dungeon, Within 12 Hours! But lots of super ultra otaku players in Japan have succeeded this tough quest, and Snows, one of them, wrote a special walkthrough for Excalibur2. Hope that this walkthrough will make your quest successful.

Some Basic Tips

1. Don't hesitate to reset your Game
While playing a game, you will encounter monsters at random. Sometimes you may be lucky, or sometimes you may not. So you should reset your game when you encounter too many monsters, or your game went wrong.
2. The first time is a Rehearsal
Memorize the shortest way, and then reset the game and try again carefully. When you buy weapons, first go to the shop and write down what to buy. Then reset your game and try again as quickly as possible.
3. Skip all the FMV
You can skip all the FMV by opening the lid of PS. If you are playing on PS2, just push the reject button.
4. Skip all the ATE
Some ATEs are compulsive, but ignore the others, except the one in Treno, in which you can get a Power Belt.
5. Decide who will fight at the last battle, and boost up the four members. Ignore the others.
The author strengthened Zidane, Steiner, Salamander, and Vivi. This means you don't heal the members during a battle.
6. Blue Magics Quina should learn
If you use Quina, most recommended magics are, LimitGlove, Reraise, and MatraMagic.
7. Use a Tent for Boss Monsters
Some battles will become easier.

You don't have to fight to get experiences. All the battles you encounter will be enough. You should save your data as often as possible. I recommend you to use several memory cards not to erase the previous data.
 
Disc 1
 
Prima Vista   Skip the opening FMV. (Skip all the FMV after this.) Let's change the configuration: triangle-up-circle-down-down-right-R1-right-down-right-right-right-down-down-down-right-X-XDecide Zidane's name, (start-circle) and you'll have the first battle.A Man with a Mask (Baku) HP188.

Receive a tent and save your data. (7"45')Climb the ladder and enter the castle. Ignore some Gil, and run after the rat.Battle - Zenero, King Lear, BeneroYou only have to beat the King. Attak only the King. If you get too many fake magics, you should reset and try again. (As too many magics take lots of time.)SWORD FIGHT: Do your best. :-)Zidane meets a girl with a white hood. (Garnet) Choose the lower choice.Input Steiner's name, and you control Steiner. Go out of the castle and go straight to the left tower. Now you control Zidane. Talk with Ruby and go downstairs. Ignore the items in the engine room.Battle - SteinerZidane: attack , other two: steal. You can beat with two turns. Battle - Steiner, Haagen, WeimarlYou only have to attack Steiner. Let Zidane attack, Vivi fire. Battle - Steiner (+Bomb)Attack Zidane, Vivi and Marcus, and let them KO. Thus dialogue with Steiner will be canceled and Bomb explodes soon.
Evil Forest   After a compulsive ATE, save your data with a moogle Mosko.Enter the Evil Forest. If you encounter a monster only once, Zidane will be level 2, and have a battle against PrisonCage.Battle - PrisonCage (HP512)Zidane: attack, Steiner: attack, then Zidane: FreeEnergy.Battle - PrisonCage (HP532)All: attack

If you touch you have a battle against Wyard.Don't save at the save point, (because it will take time).Battle - Sillion (HP472), Black Waltz No.1 (HP228)Attack Black Waltz. Three turns will be enough. Then steal a mythril dagger from Sillion.Attack Sillion two times, then wait until Zidane's trance.

Village of Dali- Lindbulm   Now you control Zidane. Go out of the inn, and go to the field. Enter the pub, and go out. Talk to Vivi, and go to the weapon shop (an event with Dagger) Go to the inn. Have Steiner's ATE. You should save your data here.#You should sell your Ethers and Phoenix downs, and buy an ironsword and a feather hat, and as many leather wrists as possible. (Leather wrists are for making money.)Go to the Dali underground. Don't go to the warehouse. Receive Ether and IronHelm.Now you control Steiner. Morrid walks so slowly, so receive Highpotion and Gil while the old man goes down.Battle - Black Waltz No.2 (HP1030) Zidane: Lv4, Steiner Lv.3Black Waltz uses multiple fire when Vivi uses a magic, and when Hp reduced by half.Steiner: fire swrod, Zidane: attack, Vivi: Potion to Zidane or Steiner.

Festival for the Hunt   Receive Ether and Glass Armlet at the guest room. Go to the aircab station. When you get to the theater district, attack Zidane and let him KO, at the first battle. Thus Freya will win automatically and you can get Coral Ring. This is the shortest way for Festival for the Hunt. After having some events, go to Dragon's Gate and save your data.(Let's check your equipment and abilities. I recommend you to write down.) You should put Freya forward.
- E. Plains - Qu Marsh - G. Grotto   Go to Qu's Marsh. Get a frog and talk to Quina. Equip him with Yellow Scarf, and get the ability of GilUp. Then go to Chocobo's forest. Learn Quina's blue magic "Limit Glove" from Mandragora if you can. After you get a chocobo, ride Choco and go to Gizamaluk's Grotto. (If you want all the items, go to the South Gate and get Mocka Coffee.)Save your data before you enter Gizamaluke's Grotto.
Gizamaluke's Grotto   Talk to a soldier and receive the Bell of Gizamaluke. - Open the door - Beat Black Mage typeA x2 - Go back to the soldier and receive a Bell of Gizamaluke. - Open the big door in the center. - Receive a Bell from a moogle. - Open the right door and save your time.(Time: 2h38'00" Author's time: 2h01'18")Battle - Black Mage Type a x2 (HP398)Equip Coral Ring to Zidane and set Man Eater, and he can beat one at a stroke. Let Vivi and Freya defence. Let Quina attack himself and KO'd. This is because to let him use Limit Glove at the battle against Gizamaluke.After you saved your data, use a Phoenix Down to Quina. If he didn't revive with HP1, reset the game and try again. This is for Limit Glove. Talk to a moogle and receive a Holy Bell. Go back to the room in the center, and go to the door in the left backward. Now you fight against Gizamaluke.Battle - Gizamaluke (HP3200) Its weak point is Thunder and Bird Killer.If you use a tent to Gizamaluke, you can make it blind and silent state at the rate of 30% - 50%. I recommend you to steal Ice Wand, and Tricorn. Set Bird Killer to Freya and let her attack. She can give damage about 300 pts. Vivi should focus several times and use Thunder.Let me tell in detail. At the first turn, Zidane should steal, Vivi Focus, Quina use tent to Gizamaluke, the Freya should attack. (You don't have to do in this order.) If you are lucky Gizamaluke doesn't use "Silent Voice". If Gizamaluke became Blind and Silent state, let all members attack.If you give up Ice Wand here, equip Yellow Scarf to Zidane and set Bird Killer. Use a Tent first, but later let Zidane attack and let others defence. You can beat Gizamaluke with Zidane's attack about six times.Now save your data!
Burmecia   Let's go to Burmecia. Beat the direction button (Don't keep pushing it.) and reduce the encounter rate.At Burmecia: Beat BlackMage type A x2, Go upstairs at the steps on your right, and then enter the residence area.

Save your data at the treasure warehouse.You'll encounter monsters a few times in Burmecia. Don't flee and get experiences. Use Vivi's Blizzara. Three encounters will be best. More than three is too much. Reset your game and try again. You can ignore the Mythil Spear in the weapon warehouse, because you will have few chances to use one.Battle - Black Mage typeA x2 (HP398)Fight just the same as that in Gizamaluke. Quina is alive, so let him KO'd again.Battle - Beatrix (1st time) (HP3630)#If some turns are done, or if you can give damage, the battle ends. As Beatrix's attack is strong, don't use Phoenix down to the KO'd member. Vivi's Blizara is the strongest. If Vivi's KO'd, you should reset and try again.#If you wait turns are done, it will take one minutes more. But in this case you have time to steal Mirhtil Sword and Chain Plate from Beatrix. If you are not in a hurry, you can steal. Either way is OK.#If you use Quina's Limit Glove, you can finish this battle most quickly.

Esto GazaMount Gulug   Let's go to the weapon shop. Don't forget to buy an Octagonal Staff for Vivi.Enter Mount Gulug. You can receive 9693 Gil in the left room from the entrance. Change the switch at the well down three Times and climb down the rope.Battle - Red Dragon x2 (HP8000)Its weak point is ice. Also Bird Killer works. Vivi should use Blizara. Zidane Steiner and Amarant should fight with Mp attack and Bird Killer.After you beat the Red Dragon, let's change the equipment. Steiner should equip Flame Tongue. Set Devil Killer to Zidane, Stiener and Amarant. Don't forget to recover their HP. Ignore Vivi, because he doesn't join the next Battle.Battle - Melty Gemini (HP20946-30665)Just attack. You can beat them after two or three turns.Now you come back to Lindblum. You can save your date at the guest room, but you can ignore this save, because there's no chance that something happens at random.
(Treno)   If you go to Treno at this point, and beat the monster underground of the weapon shop, you can get a Running Shoes. Auto-Haste is important ability and makes Battles easier. (If the monster has changed from Catbrepass to Amdusious, you can get only 15,000 Gil)
(Quan's Cave)   If Quina and Vivi come here, you have an event. After the event, check the clock, and you can receive a Running shoes. The required Time will be as long as that in Treno. You can choose either one you like.
Ipsen's Heritage   The member should be Zidane, Steiner, Vivi and another. They should equip the WEAKEST weapon. As the encounter rate here is low. If you are lucky you can go to the Boss without encountering. Ignore the revolving door and elevator. Before the Battle against Dahaka, change Steiner's equipment to the strongest one.Battle - Dahaka (HP28884-32349)You can steal an Orichalcon from Dahaka. If Steiner equips Flame tongue and set Add Status, you can make Dahaka heat state.When you come back to the entrance, Zidane goes to search for Amarant. After finding him, let's save the date with the moogle here.
Four Seals   Send two members to each four seals. You should rehearse the way to the seals.Water Seal: Go straight to the south from the Heritage.Frie Seal : Go to the NortheastWind Seal: Go straight to the NorthEarth Seal: Go to the northeastBattle - Lich (HP19856-25040)Zidane and Quina should set Devil Killer and Mp attack. Thus you can give damage of 5000 points. Zidane should equip Gaia Gear, Quina Reflect Ring. Quina may use reraise to Zidane. If Quina has learned Matra Magic, use this.

Shimmering Island   After you beat Lich, you should save your data before going to Terra. (Time: 10h09'00")
Terra   Go to Terra through the Shimmering Island. After you heard Garland talk, follow the Genome girl. I recommend you to fight against Hecteyes to get experiences here.
Bran Bal   Make sure what abilities Steiner and Amarant have. Choose the left way to enter Bran Bal, and then go to the warehouse (where there are beds) and to the basement. You should save and buy things after you control Eiko. You should receive Angel earrings near the pond. (Time: 10h32'00")Let's sell the items you won't use any more, and buy what you need. You should buy Defender, Avenger, Holy Lance, HypnoCrown. After you bought these, go out of Bran Bal. You don't have to talk to Vivi and Amarant and let them join.
Pandemmonium   You control Zidane. After you talk to Garland, you have Battles. So you should check the equipment and abilities. If you want high possibility to succeed, you should equip Hermes shoes, and set Auto Haste, and Antitode. If you want shorter Time, you should equip Rebirth Ring, and set Auto Life. In either case, you should set MP attack, Bird Killer and Level Up.Battle - Amdusious (HP5462)Set Antidote. When the Battle begins, do nothing until Freya comes. When Freya show up, attack only once. After Amarant shows up, start fighting. For damage you gave before Freya and Amarant comes cannot be counted.The shortest way : After Freya appears, Zidane should attack and give more than 5462 damage. (In this case, Amarant appears soon.) Freya should attack herself and be KO'd. Amarant should attack. The ability Bird Killer works well.Battle - Abaddon (HP10926)Quina should use Reraise to Steiner. Then wait for a moment. After Abbadon attacks two Times, Zidane joins. Then Steiner and Zidane should attack. Quina may be KO'd at this Time, so leave him KO'd.Bird Killer(Bug Killer?) works well. If you are lucky, one turn of Zidane and Steiner's attack will be enough.Battle - Shelter Dragon (HP10920)No damage is counted until Garnet shoes up. When Zidane's HP is shown yellow, Garnet appears. You can absorb the damage of Earthshake by equipping Gaia Gear. After Garnet joins, Zidane should attack. If you control well, you can let Zidane trance at this moment. In this case, you can beat the monster in two turns.Let Garnet KO'd. (to forcalize the experiences to Zidane.) If Zidane set Auto Life, first attack Zidane, and Garnet will appear soon. But in this case, Zidane may be KO'd before you beat Shelter dragon.Now all the other members join. Save the data.2\
Elevator- Pandemmonium   Se the direction 4, and you can go upstairs. Save the data with a moogle. (Time: 10h57'30", Author's Time: 8h42'25")Prepare for the series of three Battles. You should set abilities Bird Killer, Man Eater, MP attack, Auto Haste, Auto Regen. Zidane should have learned Auto Haste by this Time, and Amarant or Steiner should equip Hermes's shoes. You should equip against thunder or wind attacks. You can use Freya instead of Vivi. In this case, all four should attack.Battle - Silver Dragon (HP23697-24597)Zidane, Steiner and Amarant should attack, and Vivi should use Blizzaga. Itis also OK that Amarant throw Wing Edge. To throw can give lots of damage especially to a flying enemies.Battle - Garland (HP 38317-41484)Zidane, Steiner, and Amarant should attack. Vivi can use Blizzaga, or recover others, because Vivi can't give much damage to Garland with Blizzaga. You can get no AP from Garland and Kuja, so you don't have to recover if you think you can beat them.Battle - Kuja (HP38911-42385)Fight just the same as against Garland. I feel we can have an easier Battle than that against Garland.After the Battle, go to Invinsible. This is the end of Disc 3
Disc 4
 
Black Mage Village   Now we are leaving for the last dungeon. If you have anything left, and have time to spare, you can go around the world.
Life Tree   Battle - Nova Dragon (HP 53199-58699)Vivi should equip Octagonous, Zidane and Amarant should equip HypnoCrown. Zidane and Steiner should set Bird Killer and MP attack. So should Amarant. He also can throw Wing Edge. Vivi should equip Magician's clothes and use Blizzaga. In this case, you can beat this monster in 10 attacks, (i.e. three turns if all are alive.) Enter Memoria and save the data.
Memoria   Receive Lance of Cain and The tower. Equip properly and let's have a battle.Battle - Marilis (HP 59417-60875)Zidane, Steiner and Amarant should set MP attack, and Devil Killer. Vivi should equip Reflect Ring, and use Blizzaga to himself. Zidane should also set Auto Life, and all should set Bodytemp. You are lucky if Marilis use lots of Mustard Boomb and Reflect. In this case you can beat it in about three turns. Sword dance, which Marilis use in its last moment, is very strong. If you are unlucky, all will be KO'd. Be careful that the character with Auto Life should not be KO'd before Marilis uses Sword Dance.Receive Rune Claw, and check the equipment and ability.Battle - Tiamat (HP 59122-61364)All the members should set Bodytemp against the enemy's Jet attack, and should equip something that can absorb Wind attack against Twister. if a character made to Float attacks, he will be blown off. (If Tiamat's HP is a little left, this doesn't matter.) So, just fight as the one against Marilis, but Tiamat has a higher defence ability than Marilis.Battle - Kraken (HP 54539-55938)The members should NOT just attack against Kraken. Vivi should recover others, because his Sandaga doesn't work so well against this monster. Steiner should equip Thunder Glove and use Thundaga Sword. You can expect more than 8000 damage with this. You can absorb Kraken's counter attack "water gun" by equipping Ribbon. If you got too much damage, vivi can use an Elixir. Zidane and Amarant should attack with MP attack and Devil Killer. You cannot absorb or invalidate Water attack, so you should use some equipment that reduce this attack by half. All the members should set Auto Regen. You should also set Bodytemp against Kraken's attack "blaze". You can't avoid Wataga. Ignore the tentacles. Just attack only its core.Battle - Lich (HP 58104-63548)Lich uses Lv 5 Death. Be careful for the levels of the members. If you are not going to have battles in Memoria, Pandemmonium should be the last place to control the members' levels. The members should set Auto Float, and should equip Gaia Gear, or Feather Boots against Lich's earthquake attack.Zidane, Steiner and Amarant should set MP attack and Devil Killer. Vivi should equip a Red Cap and use Firaga.
Memoria   After you beat Lich, go to the pillar on your right. You can find a feel icon here. You did it! Receive the Excalibur 2!Now you are quite free to go to the last Boss or go back to the world map to gather items you couldn't get.
Crystal World   Battle - Deathguise (HP about60000)If you let Deathguise sleep, you can avoid its Meteo.But as this takes lots of time, you shouldn't do this when you are aiming the shortest time clear. The damage from Meteo is quite at randome. If you are lucky some of the members will remain alive, otherwise, you should set Auto Life or Aura. The members should set MP attack and Bird Killer. Steiner should equip Excalibur 2, and he can sometimes give 9999 damage to the enemy. Amarant can throw Wing Edge. Vivi should use Blizzaga. Fortune affects much in this battle, but as you could save the data just before this, you can try many times.Battle - Trance Kuja (HP about 60000)The members should set Bird Killer. Kuja uses not only FlarStar but also FlareStar or Curaga as a counterattack. If you have a weak member that cannot give much damage, let him not attack but recover the others.Battle - Necron (HP about 60000)You should set Bird Killer, too. You should set Auto Life, or make at least two members in the status of Reraise, by using Aura.

Alcune ATE sono compulsive,ma ignora le altre,per esempio una a Treno,in altre puoi prendere un Power Belt.

5)Decidi chi affronterai all'ultima battaglia,e salta i 4 membri.L'autore raccomanda Gidan,Vivi,Amarant e Steiner.Questo significa che non devi guarire i membri durante la battaglia.
