Final Fantasy III FAQ

This is tip, hints, etc. that I have gotten for the two newsgroups
alt.games.final-fantasy and rec.video.games.nintendo and the Final
Fantasy Mailing list.  The address for the mailing list is
finalfantasy@vt.edu.

I am always adding new info to this FAQ.  I won't be using version
number, may be a date, which will tell of the last change in it. 

I.  Final Fantasy as a multiplayer game

To use multiplayer mode, you go to the config screen and change it from 
single to multi, then hit A and assign to the controllers. It only works 
for the battles though, not the regular gameplay. 

Original Names in FF6 (Japan Version of FFII)

These are the original character names:

   US - FF3       Japan - FF6

14. Gau             Gau
* denotes ones that were changed, some just to accomodate 6-letter
name limit.

II. Special Character Notes

Edgar can use 6 "tools" in battle: autocrossbow, drill, bio blast,
debilitator, flash, chainsaw, noise blaster and air anchor.  Many
of these can be bought in Edgar's castle, South Figaro.

Sabin has special control pad techniques that are issued when the
"blitz" command is invoked.  Select "blitz", input the code and then
press A to continue.

     Pummel         =    L,R,L
     Mantra (heals) =    R,L,R,L,X,Y
     AuraBolt       =    D,DL,L
     Air Blade      =    U,UR,L,DR,D,DL,L (clockwise "roll")
     Suplex         =    X,Y,D,U
     Spiraler       =    R,L,X,Y,R,L
     Fire Dance     =    L,DL,D,DR,R (counter-clockwise "roll")
     Bum Rush       =    L,UL,U,UR,R,DR,D,DL,L
                         (total clockwise circle)

Cyan uses a special "sword technique" that must be "powered up"
when selected.

III. Controlling the Different Modes of Transporation.

Key:

L = left on control pad
R = right on control pad
U = up on control pad
D = down on control pad

UR = up/right diagnol
DR = down/right diagnol
DL = down/left diagnol
UL = up/left diagnol

LB = left button on top of control pad
RB = right button on top of control pad

A,B,X,Y = control buttons


Riding Chocobos
---------------

U = move forward
L or R = turn

A = move forward
B = dismount (Chocobo returns to stable)


Airship
-------

U or D = adjust height
L or R = turn

A = move forward
B = leave airship

X = switch to view inside airship
Y = turn airship when it's not moving

LB or RB = highspeed turns

World of Balance

V. Narshe 

Here is where the game starts with Terra being controlled by The
Empire.  You will meet Mog here.  He will join the party later, if
you make the right decision.

Mog - Whenever you get back to Narshe, people will tell you of a pick-pocketer
in town.  Remember that treasure chest you could not open in Narshe? 
Head for that.  You'll see a dude named Lone Wolf (he used to be a prisoner
in Figaro castle) and he takes off with the treasre in Narshe.  Chase him
around the town (you'll end up at the frozen Esper...).  When you reach the 
Esper, Lone Wolf will have Mog hostage.  I'll leave the rest up to you guys...
 
VI. Returner's Hideout

You meet Sabin on the way here.  And you meet Banon here.

Genji Glove - It's available in the Returner's Hideout, pretty
early on.  When you get to the Returner's Hideout and control
Terra, with everyone trying to convince you to join up, tell Banon 'NO', you
don't want to join, then go back inside.  One guy will give you the Genji
Glove, trying to persuade you to join.  

VII.  Jidoor

Auction - Before the devastation, you can only buy Angel's Wings (too expensive
and not very useful), Angel's Rings (not very useful) and
the Magic Stones Golem and Zona.Seeker (very useful).  Save
money for the magic stones.  Sell useless equipment ...

VIII. Zozo

Terra is here after she morphs at Narshe.

Setting the clock in Zozo - The clock needs to be set to 6:10:50...
this will open the passage to the room with the treasure chest.


IX. The Veldt

Here is were Gau is. When you meet him give him dried meet; don't
attack him or he will run.  But you can get him again if you do.

Mog's Water Dance -  If you do not have Mog before the world is
shattered, there is NO way (to the best of my knowledge) to get Mog's 
Water Dance!

This would mean that you need to get Mog to join your party before
the world is shattered. 

Remember where Gau gave you the "shiny shiny" object? That's the cave. 
By the way, make sure Mog is in your active party first.
Jump into the water and this is where Mog will learn his Water Dance.
When you surface from the water, DO NOT board the ship. If you do,
you will have to reset the game! I find this very strange indeed that you
could get stuck on an area with no way out.
Now, you have to make a long trek back to Veldt. There is a way
back there as long as you don't board the ship when you surface from the water.
Get back to your airship and proceed as normal.

X. Vector 

You will find to espers here.  There are Ifrit and Shiva.
 
Emperor Gestahl - Hint to get the chest in the locked room in
Warehouse before Sealed Gate:

1. You need Emperor Gestahl's permission to have access to the room.
2. The way to get permission is during the banquet.
3. You need to accumulate enough "points" to get the permission.
4. You can get points from talking to guards and answering correctly.
5. Here are the scoring scheme:
   (a) Each guard you talked to  24 x 1pt each = 24 pts 
   (b) Each guard you fought      5 x 4pt each = 20 pts
   (c) Toast question
        To the kingdom             2pt
        To Returners               1pt
        To our hometowns           5pt         5 pts
   (d) Kefka question
        Leave him in jail          5pt
        Let him go                 1pt
        Execute him                3pt         5 pts
   (e) Doma question
        What's done is done        1pt
        That was inexcusable       5pt
        Apologize Again!!          3pt
   (f) Celes question
        Was she a spy?             1pt
        She's one of us            5pt
        We trust Celes             3pt         5 pts 
   (g) Asking each question       3 x 2pt each =  6 pts
       If you asked one of the
       question twice              - 10pt
       Remember which question you asked first!
   (h) Espers question
        Gone too far               5pt
        Unleashed the power        2pt         5 pts
   (i) Which question asked first     5pt         5 pts
   (j) Care for a break
        Break                      5pt         5 pts
   (k) Say question
        Peace                      3pt
        War's over                 5pt
        Sorry                      1pt         5 pts
   (l) Favor
        If you say Yes when Gestahl
        asked you the first time               3 pts
                       Total Max     93 pts

6. What you get for the points:
 0 - 49 pts   South Figaro is safe
50 - 66 pts   Troops withdrawn from Doma
67 - 76 pts   Permission to the locked room
77 - 89 pts   Tintinabar
90 - 93 pts   Charm Bangle 

XI. Floating Island

Get to this by airship.  This is the last place before "World of Ruin"

You can go from the second save point to where it says "You can see the airship
below.  Jump back or stay?" and from there to the west, then north through some
rocks (they'll break for you).  You must beat the atma beast (I had Terra 
and Celes with Earrings, Golden Hairpin, and the Hero Ring cast a lot of Bio
spells, and Terra Morphed) and Locke just attack with his best sword, or cast
Bolt 2 maybe.

After you beat the beats, go back and save it again!  When you
climb past where you beat the atma beast, you'll see why....

Shadow - Some players who have gotten to the shattered world might
wonder where Shadow is.  Guess what?! If you do not wait for Shadow when 
you are escaping from the floating island, he is GONE...Yep, dead, meet his 
maker, kick the bucket, bought the farm (I know, I know, you get the point)

1. When you get to the edge of the floating island. Choose Wait twice.
2. Shadow will appear at 5 secs to zero.
3. In the shattered world, Shadow can be found inside the cave in Veldt.
4. Once you saved him, he will start to recuperate. But then, as usual, he
   disappears again.
5. Shadow can then be found in the Colosseum. You must bet "Striker".
6. Once you defeated him, Shadow will join your party, permanently this time.

World of Ruin

XII.  Location of Dragons

1 in Narshe (Ice)
1 in cave reached from Zozo (Thunder)
1 in Opera House (Dirt)
1 in Phoenix Cave (Red)
1 in Fanatics' Tower (White)
1 in Ancient Castle (Blue) (reached by stopping Figaro castle mid-journey)
2 in Kefka's Tower

total: 8 Dragons

XIII.  The Solitary Island

This is were Celes is after the "destory" of the world of balance. 
Cid is also here.  He is ill from not eating, so feed him a fish
until you feed him a rotten fish and he will die, leaving a letter
telling you will to find a raft.  Or get Cid fully healed. 
There IS a way to nurse him back to health. The result is that you get a
worse, IMHO, cut-scene.

The scene where Celes jumps off the cliff and finding the bandana on the 
pigeon seems to have more impact on the gravity of the situation. 
Anyway, here is how to nurse Cid back to health:

1. You need to feed him 10 healthy fish.
2. The healthy fish swims real fast.
3. If you do not see any healthy fist, talk to Cid again. This will reset
   the fishes.


XIV. Darill's Tomb
This is were you get the experince egg and the Falconer Airship.

Exp. Egg - Read the tombstones with the letter clumps on them. And
then enter the letter clumps in that order on the tombstone where
it ask if you wish to inscribe something, and it will spell out
erauqS sI dlroW ehT...  Then it will give you a hint as to where the Exp Egg is.  
XV. Narshe

Here is were the Ice Dragon is.  Also you will find Mog the second
time here.  

Mog - Mog is in the cave near narshe where you first met him.
Remember that secret entrance in Narshe to the left of the town?
Go in there, then you'll have no problem finding him.

Moggle Charm - Right where Mog is standing in the caves in the World of
Ruin.  Right behind him is a umm... "wall with an invisible treasure",
meaning that the treasure is the moogle charm.  So basically, you just
push "A" right behind where Mog was standing, and Voila, you have the 
Moogle charm.

Umaro - To get Umaro you have to first go north of Narshe where you
defeated Kefka - you know - snow place.  Defeat the dragon there, 
then go further north to where the esper was initally found at
the beginning of the game.  Free the esper.  Jump off the cliff.
Walk around in there until you see a skull-on-a-stick.
Take the magicite from it and Umaro will come to kick your
ass.  Kick *his* ass. Then Mog will force him to join you.
Oh, yes.  You must have mog.

The rage ring enables Umaro to pick up the other 
characters and throw them at the enemies for
tremendous damage.

XVI. Mobliz

Terra is here.  She has given up hope and has decide to take care
of the child here.  She will, however, join the party again after
the village is attack for the second time.

Go into one of the houses in the village you found her and Katarin at
originally (when Terra said she wouldn't come with you) and then talk to the
kids.  Go into one of the other houses, and you'll see Katarin's
boyfriend, and, if you look closely, a dog that runs to the left wall of the 
house. He's showing you the secret stairway to where Terra and Katarin are. 
The demon will attack again, so make sure you save it before you talk to them.
You'll then get Terra back.

XVII. Doma Castle

Wreksoul - I just beat Wreksoul tonight. He only appears when your
characters become wounded. I found it helpful to use the LIFE 3 spell on my
characters and then allow them to die(I even attacked my own characters to make 
it go quicker). When Wreksoul appears, I revive my characters and cast
ICE spells on him(ignoring the other enemies). He disappeared/reappeared a
couple times, but I was patient(like CYAN said) and was able to beat him. 

XVIII. Colosseum

After finding him in the cave at The Veldt, Shadow is here if you waited for 
him on the floating island.  If you didn't he is dead!!!  You have to
fight.  Bet the Striker and Shadow will join you again. 

Here you can wager items in hope of getting something better if you
beat a certain monster.  If you wager something not that good, you
will get a Chupon, which will sneeze you away.

Rename Card - Once you named them for the first time, there is only
one way to re-name them: use the Rename Card item.  The item is only
availiable at the Colossium.  You have to bet an elixir (or another item, I
forgot that).

Miracle Shoes ( Marvel Shoes?) -  Bet the rename card.  If you win
the battle, you get Miracle Shoes, a relic which gives you Protect, Shell, and 
Haste all at once!

Or Imp Halberd --> Cat Hood --> Merit Award --> Rename Card --> Marvel Shoes

Airhook - You can get it from the colloseum by trading genji armor. 

Complete Colloseum List

The list is pretty much self-explanatory, and the "--" represent Elixir/Chupon.
I don't think the item won depends on the character used, but I may be wrong; 
I used Terra for the entire list.  Enjoy!

XIX. Triangle Island

You find Gogo in the ruined world (I don't think you can get him 
earlier).  Anyway, the the NE of the map there is a small island. 
Land there and get attacked.  If the enemy is a ZoneEater or somesuch,
you're in the right place.  DON'T KILL IT!  Let it "engulf" your party
members one by one.  You will be sucked underground to a cave where you
will find Gogo and a few treasure chests.  Among them is the Fake Mustache.

XX. Fanatics Tower

This is the the tower that Strago was standing in front of.  You have
to find Relm to make Strago snap out of it.

As for the Fanatics tower you can whip through it by doing this:

Cast float on all of your characters before you enter the tower.
Cast quake on the dancers, yellow guys.
Cast fire 3 on the blue acrobats.
Cast bolt 2 on small purple guys, and umbrella guys.
Cast flare on the urns.
Cast reflect on your self and then bounce Ice 3 of that to kill flaming guys.
Bounce bolt 3 of off the reflected character to kill the contorted people.
Cast fire 3 on the girls on level 4 of the tower.

To kill the leader just cast life 3 on one of your characters, and hit him
with flare as much as possible.

XXI. Ancient Castle (Underground Castle)

Dragon - If you talk to the dude in the Figaro castle library, he
will tell you what to do...but it's annoying to find 
him especially when you are already in the castle, so place yourself in 
the queen's chair (right one) and take five steps forward (down) and 
press the 'A' button.  I'll let you find out what happens yourself...but
here's a hint... look where you first found info on the queen 

XXII. Eboshi Rock

You learn the most powerful blue magic there, from the boss using Strago.

XXIII. Miscellaneous
-------------

Press and hold both LB and RB to attempt escape from a battle.

You can save the game on the outer world screen or on a blue
flashing "save" spot.

Later in the game, Espers will be available for equiping.  You
can use an Esper once per battle per party member.  You call the
Esper by selecting "magic" from the battle options and pressing "UP"
on the control pad.

Two relics per character can be worn.  Experiment.  The game tells
what each relic does when you attempt to buy it.

Subject: Re: Dreaming in the inn

Well, I figures out what's going on with the inn in Nikeah.  If you have
the ninja in your party, you can watch a dream sequence in certain
towns.  It's a flashback on how the ninja went from Clyde the train
robber to Shadow the ninja.  You can only get certain pieces of the
story at a time.  The order of towns to sleep in is:  Nikeah, South
Figaro, the Colosseum, Jidoor.  I haven't been able to find anymore
places where the ninja has dreams.  Hopefully they'll better explain
what happened to his wife and what made him dump Relm on Strago.

Espers   Crusader - defeat all 8 dragons
Bahamut - defeat Doom Gaze. to find him, fly in the airship for a long time.
Raiden - go to the ancient (underground) castle. stand in the queen's
         throne, and take 5 steps forward. press "a". this opens a new
      passage in the queen's chamber leading to a place where you can
      "upgrade" Odin into Raiden.
Ragnarok - take Locke to Narshe and have him unlock the door to the weapon
           shop. Talk to the man in the back room.
Sraphim.  Talk to a guy hiding behind some trees at the north part of one
of the captured towns on the imperial continent (I'm pretty sure it's Tzen.)
This is a really nice esper to have since it teaches cure and cure2
spells quickly. 
ZoneSeek.  Buy him at the auction in Jidoor. You must have completed
certain events for the auction to be running. In my game the first
thing auctioned was a talking chocobo (which i didn't buy) and then i
came back and found his magicite for sale..
