WALKTHROUGH
~The beginning to the end~
AD2172, Calistro.......
Ok, now start the game, and play the game on Normal mode, but if
you don't mind and wanna showoff your previous skills, you may start
with Hard mode.
Now, Watch at the long cutscene about finding the Metatron, and Dingo'll
proceed to your daily job, to find the Metatron (I used to those daily
job sentences). Suddently, His robot doesn't listen to you command anymore
thus the Auto Pilot mode is disabled, Dingo'll get quite pissed off, and the
game starts.
You play as Dingo Egret, and what you'll pilot now is NOT JEHUTY, is the
useless rabbit robot!
-Now what you have to do is quite simple, pilot the rabbit robot (Jump is
the fastest way to proceed the game further.) proceed foward until you
found a mountain. You'll have quite a difficulty of climbing the mountain
at first (As I don't really get it, what is the Circle button doing for?)
-Always follow the arrow shown in front of the robot
-To jump, press R2
-Before you climb the mountain slope, go to the very right corner of the
path and face yourself towars the mountain ledge, to land youself on, press
foward + R2 to dash yourself to the higher ledge, jump one more time, to pass
through the ledge
-And proceed foward again, Cutscene occur
Have fun with that Rabbit Robot?
Then you will find the Metatron (Orbital Frame), Chaos came, and same as
Leo Steinbuck, you will fall into the cockpit of Jehuty, and.....
TADDA! Ohayou Gozaimasu, Sentou kodo kaishi masu.....
(Good morning, Ready for starting combat operations)
Thus Dingo shouts "UGOKE!" (move!)
-You will see a cool cutscene, and thus moving yourself into battle
-After you kill the two raptors, there is another intermission between
you and Ada.
-Thus you will get into the Tutorial, for lazy players, here's the
control for you all:
Up, Down, Left, Right - Selection button
Left Analog Stick - Moving Jehuty with Up, Down, Left or Right
Right Analog Stick -  Camera Switch (moving the camera angle)
Triangle - Ascend
X - Descend
Square Button - As long range attack, Jehuty will fire small stream
of missles, minimal damage. As for close range attack, Jehuty will
attack the enemies with a combo of sword slashes. 4 hit in total.
Circle Button - Firing Subweapons (Grab, Gaunlet, Phalanx, Decoy,
Comet, Halberd, Geyser, Wisp, Vector Cannon, Floating Mine, Mummy,
Homing Missle and 0-Shift) Those were additional weapons and abilities
that you will obtained throughout the whole game. As for short range,
It's function is to grab an enemy. Press circle when an enemy is blocking.
And you will grab an enemy (subweapon must be choosen "grab") and press
circle once to throw, multiple times to do a swing attack, nearby
enemies will get hit if you perform the swing attack. And it's very
fatal to the enemy. Press Square to take enemy as a weapon, and
R1 to take enemy as a shield! And lastly, Press R2 while the you're
not moving will paralyzed the enemy.
R1 - Shield, to block, note that it'll drop down your subweapon
gauge, the more you use it, the more subweapon gauge you use.
L1 - Switching subweapons, press L1 twice to switch back to the
default subweapon, Grab.
L2 - Lock on, VERY USEFUL for locating enemies and some hidden
items. It will become very handy for your progression throughout
this game.
R2 - Burst, at long range, press R2 with Square to do the Burst
shot. At close range, Jehuty will perform a swing sword attack.
Those attacks will negate enemies defense, thus giving them some
damage. Jehuty must stand still to perform the Burst attack.
Dash, R2 attack also serves the purpose as dash attack. Press
R2 while moving to dash left or right, very useful for evading
enemies attack. And also useful for Evade and Attack purposes.
As an example : R2 + Up analog to go front to an enemy, follow
up by pressing Square 4 times to perform a slash attack.
All way laser, R2 also serves another purposes as doing all
way laser attack. Press R2 while moving left, right, up or down
and press Square button at the same time to perform it. Useful for
killing massive loads of enemies in one shot. But you must be at a
distance between enemies to perform this attack. Hold Square longer
to target all the enemies. (It also charges a little of your
subweapon gauge)
R3 - Playing with Intermission
L3 - Same as R3 (Will include on Fun section)
Ok, done!
INTERMISSION END
-Then, intermission continues, and you'll be fighting tons of
enemies, Enjoy the fight, then cutscnes will occur, fight again
watch another cutscene, fight again, cutscene.........(always
proceed foward and follow the arrow when there are no more
enemies to fight.)
-Until your reach a place with a wall cracked,  Ada will tell
you to do the Burst shot, in order to destroy the wall, do so.
-Proceed front, and you'll watch another cutscene, and now you
will fight your very first boss......
~BOSS : ARDJET~
(Controlled by Ken Marinaris)
START
Ok this boss is quite easy, most of the time she will be blocking,
so try to go to front, use the swing sword attack to negate her
defense if you're fast enough. She will always use Wisps at her
first phrase of attack, which is quite easy to negate it, by the
most easiest way, block it. If you want a better way, Target all
the Wisps (the red missle thingy) and use the All Way Laser to
shoot all the Wisps. After the attack she will have a lots of
recovery time to return herself back to normal, so slash her as
much as you can until she recovers herself back to normal.
(By the way, Wisps is a missle attack which has a lot of small
missles launching towards the enemy, it's red in colour, so it's
easier for you to recognize it)
When her health bar is on yellow, she will mostly use the attack
that will cover herself up, and charges herself for a big electric
attack. Dodge it diagonally left or right and after she's done,
she will also leave a big gap for you to attack. After this,
She will either continue using Wisps, or charges herself for that
attack again, so take note that you have to always defend or evade
her attacks and then find an opportunity to get her off. If you did
that, you definitely win her without trouble at all.
END
After the cutscene, she will run away, and Dingo'll follow her, to the
BAHRAM battleship. Well, you may care less about Dingo's friends for
now........Bid them farewell....^_^
- You will fight some enemies once you get in, after this follow
the arrow shown
- Press L2 to discover some mischellenous items such as Metatron,
and Ex-Mission files (ALWAYS DO SO), although I'll include down the
locations of Ex-mission files on the Secrets section. But it's best
to find it out yourself...for satisfication (hint: it's very useful
to find hidden items that your naked eye can't see, so try to view
on every single area to find some hidden items, you'll get yourself
a "reward" for doing so.)
- On the second room of the BAHRAM battleship, Ada will brief you
about the Grab and Camera angle.
- After clearing the enemy, try to press L2 for the Ex-Mission
file.
- Next room, fight again......
- Another next room, there will be a cutscene, and follow the arrow
pointed...
- You will come into a room where there is a huge generator at the
center. Ignore it for the meanwhile and follow the arrow.
- You'll be blocked, thus the generator starts activating...You see
a familar Orbital Frame......That is......
~BOSS : NEPHTIS~
(Controlled by Viola AI)
START
Oh yeah she's back, annoyingly she still wants your death. But
she's formerly your comarade! Don't worry, this is not the real
Viola. As she's already died 2 years ago.......The one you fight
now is only an AI.
You can't hurt her with either long range or short range attacks,
She's invisible. Only way that you can hurt her to proceed, is grab
the metal stick (Notice the screen for the GRAB word) Grab it. And
aim at her (while she's not moving) and throw the metal at her. She
will be hurt for a little. So repeat the process for 2-3 times until
a cutscene occur....
Oh yeah, for a faster kill, Charge your stick by pressing R2 while
not moving, aim at her, and throw.....
END
- After you fought the boss, she'll be hurt by the metal, making
her disabled for the moment, and you'll hear a familar voice...
- Follow the arrow......
- Anubis......
~BOSS : ANUBIS~
(Controlled by Nohman)
START
Seriously, just simply play the game, you won't win him, forever...
Wait till he grabs you.........
END
-LONG Cutscene occurs.....and Dingo.........
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Two months later, Deimos Station
Orbit around Mars......
Ok, If you see the cutscene, you will know more about Dingo for now.
After the intermission.....
- Ok, follow the arrow, there wil be another intermission
- Go left, and proceed foward....
- SOS signal will alert you, Dingo will try to ignore it......
But...knowing the feel, you'll have to save someone, for now....
- OK, here goes your first mission :
INTERMISSION--------------------------------------------DONE!
Ok here goes the mission, you have to save Taper, a LEV UNSF
soilder or whatever he is. To save him, You'll to run around,
Go to every area, and find Taper. Each section that you will
see is there are many boxes (containers) around, then Taper
will always give you hints and tips about how to find himself
easily, mostly, He will give you the Alphaberts (A-D), 2 numbers
possible.(4 numbers to be a full number) And Color of the
container. Example:
( It's in Japanese for the time being, so try to catch the caption
for the alphaberts and the numbers)
Taper would say like :" It's on the C container"
or
Taper continues the hint by "it's numbered 0 on the container
or
(rarely) Taper would give you the second number. Example "3"
or
Taper would say like "Akai no containna" (Red Container) or
"Aoi no containna" (Blue Container)
*Listen to what he says very carefully.
Ok, hints that he will give will be the ones I included just now.
Try to destroy the containers by using ONLY normal shots (NO BURST
ATTACKS, if you found him by the luck, BURST SHOT WILL NET YOU ON
MISSION FAILED, THUS GAME OVER!)
How to know if you can find Taper or not? Easy, around 2-5 round of
wandering around, if Ada says something once you get into the new area
That means he's near, plus Taper will still give you hints. He always
give 2-3 hints if you're lucky. 1 hint if you're really unlucky. If you
dash, charge (R2 while not moving), Taper will say something like
"What's that noise?" Press start for looking at the signal that Ada
gave you (cross in green, flashing) If you found out the container with
all the Hints that Taper give you. Press Square, if you got him, you'll
found him.
INTERMISSION OVER....................................................
Ok, now that you've found Taper, you'll get your first Subweapon,
Geyser, very useful for stunning enemies. Now, after the cutscene,
You have another mission to go:
- Put your subweapon to Grab, press circle to grab Taper's LEV.
The Phantoma. and try not to press circle, leave the area by
grabbing him, and your target is to bring him to the Emergency
Escape Area.
- Press start, and look for the map which locate the Emergency
escape area (it's an orange dot). Always check the map around so
you won't get lost. Right Analong stick to view the map up and
down, so you will know where it is pointed at the Map.
- The Emergency Escape area is always on the North side of your
map
- If you happend to engage into battle, release Phantoma by
pressing Circle once. And clear the enemy in the specific area
before grabbing Phantoma again.
- If Phantoma happends to be injured, and low on health, press
R2 while you're grabbing him (you must not move), and you will
perform a burst charge, but it will heal Phantoma at the cost of
your sub weapon gauge.
- Ok, now get Phantoma to the Emergency Escape area.
- For fun, you can use Phantoma as "weapon", and Taper will be
very scared! ^_^, you may even scare him by pressing square
while you're not fighting. Taper will scream!
- Once you get there, there will be another cutscene.
- You will engage into unavoidable battle, kill all those
Raptors , Mummyheads , and Cyclops avaliable.
- Once cleared, you will see another cutscene where Nephtis
chasing you. Dingo'll escape, of course.....
Mars
After leaving Deimos Station
Now you're on Mars, where the UNSF mostly located at. Once you
land there....
- Ken will have an intermission dialogue with Dingo(you), again......
- You will know more about the Vector Cannon, Aumaan, Anubis,
and Jehuty by the intermission told.
- Ok, prepare to face another boss battle that you will never forget
~BOSS : VIC VIPER~
(Controlled by Leo Steinbuck)
START
Oohh, This is fun! You finally got to fight Leo who happens to be
the first Runner of Jehuty on Z.O.E 1! He controls Vic Viper now.
And he never chicken out anymore, now making him less annoying...
Vic Viper is cool! He will start the battle by changing mode. Which
will change into a cool flying airship! IT will mostly use laser
attack at the begining of the battle. And the missles. Which you
have to be careful. Since Vic Viper is fast, you must use All
Way Laser, in order to damage him during his flight mode. And
evade his attacks until Leo says something like "sekkin da". If
He said that means he will change his mode into robot mode. Where
he starts to use melee attacks. Don't try to fool him at the close
range. His melee attacks never give you chance to counter it.
So Geyser subweapon is useful here, try to use Swing Sword Slash
while he's not blocking (damage him also). And use Gaunlet to
stun him, and slash him. Once it's enough of his robot mode.
Vic Viper will change mode again. In addition, He will always
block while you try to do close range melee, and finds a chance
to hit you close range. So be smart and use Swing Sword Slash
to negate his defense.
Repeat the process above until VV's health bar drops to yellow.
The only thing you have to careful when this happens is his Ripple
attack. With his options (the blue thing around him) appear, His
Ripple will x3 of the normal (so there will be 3 ripples attacking
you.) Making his attack range wider. No changes when he's on Melee.
But when he turns into flight mode VV will start to activate his
Shield,  which you have to destroy it in order to damage him again.
And while's he's off screen, don't worry if the lock on is gone.
He will be back and assault you, so Dash around to avoid his assault.
Repeat the process until he's defeated.
He's not that hard, believe me. Leo is skillful of handling VV while
fighting you, but by not means he's better than you!
END
After the battle, you will see a cool struggle between Jehuty and
Vic Viper. And Ada will recognize the Vic Viper's pilot as Leo
Steinbuck. Where old friends reuntied. Dingo will learn that
Jehuty will self destruct after success of invading Aumaan. (I
thought so) Dingo will be pissed off, and tries to find a solution
: to destroy Aumaan and Anubis, and stop Ada from self destruct.
(remembers me of Tidus of FFX). Leo will quite shock about your
decision, and he hands you one of the subweapons, Gaunlet device
driver, to you. Now you can use Gaunlet as your subweapon, and
VV will leave.
Now, you have another intermission between Ken and Dingo. After
the intermission......Follow the walkthrough provided below:
- Your location now is at Margaritifer.
- Get the Metatron which located at the left side of where you're
facing at.
- After getting the Metatron, you'll see the new enemy, The
Narita. When Ada is talking while you're fighting Narita's, press
L3 to activate a mini mission where Ada will test your speed about
fighting Narita's. Once they are destroyed, You'll get another
mission file....where it is located at the north, on top of the
entrance to the Margaritifer Canyon.
- Try to break those rocks (those rocks that stand up) for
Ex-mission files, There are two of those hidden inside the rock.
Break all those to find for them (L2 to locate them easier),
wander around for one more Ex-mission file, this is located at
the bottom of the mountain slope, where is located at the end
of the south map. Where there's one hidden in a corner near the
bridge with the crashed train.
- Once you're done here, Go to the Margaritifer Canyon, which is
located at the North of your map (Press start to see the words,
it's written there.)
Now you get in, You'll obtainned another Metatron Ore. Then
proceed foward. Now you're at the crossroads, Ada will tell you
that you can't proceed foward until you unlocked the Main Gate
in front. Since it has two generators which is now active,
you have to destroy the two generators in order to unlock the
Main Gate inside the canyon.
INTERMISSION--------------------------------------------DONE!
Ok now here is your next task. To unlock the main gate in front,
you have to destroy the generators to unlock the gate. There
are two of them. So start by going to the left route. If you
can't go foward anymore, Kill the enemy which has the key symbol
on that particular enemy. You won't be able to go foward without
clearing that enemy. After you have at least killed the enemy
with the Key symbol, you'll unlock a section of the gate (which
you have 3 gates to reach the generator.) And nets you to go
foward and find the generator.
Note that if you always lean towards left on the left route.
You will find a secret route (on the map, it shows.........)
Where you will find another Ex-mission file, and a dead end.
Ignore the dead end which is blocked by stones. And follow
the arrow shown
When you reached the generator, destroy it. And try to leave the
area and you'll encountered by some enemies, Ada will tell you to
destroy the particular enemy (Commander) in order to weaken
the other enemies around. Do so. After it is cleared, You will
get the Phalanx Device Driver and you can use Phalanx subweapon
now. After the battle, follow the arrow. And proceed until you
reach the main gate, and take the right route. Repeat what you
did on the left route, except that there is no secrets found on
the right route.
After destroy two of the generators and you'll unlock the
main gate.
INTERMISSION OVER..............................................
Go inside the main gate (If you're low on health, take the Metatron
Ore before you go in.......)
You will see a cutscene...and..............
~BOSS : NEPHTIS~
(Controlled by Viola AI)
The Second Battle
START
She back, with vengence....OH yeah, she's still quite "invisible".
And takes most of her time blocking your attacks and counter you at
the same time, What a skillful AI!! You can't really hurt her!
Even you can't really success in grabbing her! What to do?
Here's a little trick though.......
Notice that there are a lot of steel plates hanging around? Put your
subweapons to "Grab", and grab the steel plates. Wait till she says
"Ikuo!" Means she is preparing to charge towards you! Or if you see
her body flashing. Block youself with the steal plate, and once she
charges towards you, she will be paralyzed, take the opportunity
to slash her as many as you can, or grab and swing her if you want
to......
Repeat the process, and when her health bar drops to yellow, the
first part of the battle will be over.
END
After the battle, Nephtis will never give up and charge towards
you, pushing you towards, and bring you to another location.
On the next location, the poor Jehuty will be pushed by Nephtis
into a fence. Since the fence is surrounded by the electircal
voltage, you thus got hit at the corner, struck on the fence,
and got paralyzed.......
And now, it's time for the second part of the battle.
~BOSS : NEPHTIS~
(Controlled by Viola AI)
The Third Battle
START
Wooh, a pain! Dash to get out of the Electrical fence. And it's
time for another strategy.
Don't bother playing skills with Nephtis, she won't be hurt, and
you'll make it opposite, she will counter your hit and give you
some damage. You don't want it to happen right?
She starts the battle on her yellow health bar. Well that's good
news. So what you must do now is dash left or right, wait till she
starts charging herself, dash to avoid it (Make sure you are near
around the electrical fence, not too close though), She will charge
towards you. Since you avoided it, she will go towards the electrical
fence and paralyzed. She will be struggling, so? Take the opportunity
and slash her! But Swing Sword Slash will damage her more, Don't bother
to use fully charged Burst Shot, you won't be able to make it.
To make yourself safe (Since too close to her might result on an impact
which push you to the electircal fence), Use a short charge Burst Shot
to damage her, It works!
Any other attacks of hers is self explainatory, dodge it whenever
it's needed, as before, no melee attacks as she will always block
it and counter you back, Repeat the process above, keep letting her
charge towards you, once she does that, avoid her charge, and you'll
successfully trick her, go ahead and do whatever you want to her!
END
After the battle, you'll get the Comet device driver, Now, Comet
subweapon is yours.
Now, The UNSF is heading towards a city, what happend?
The BAHRAM forces is going to destroy the Verscilla city(sp?),
residents are on danger! So UNSF is going to help them of course,
you know sometimes UNSF won't be really dependable, So you try to
allied temporally with them and help the UNSF to clear the enemies
and avoid letting the enemies get through the civillian area But,
since this is a Japanese game, that's only my assumption....
INTERMISSION--------------------------------------------DONE!
Now you have another mission to go. Your mission is to clear
the enemies WITHOUT damaging the surroundings. If you manage
to do that, You will get a higher rank. To start always follow
the arrow shown, since you're playing this game for the first
time, use Geyser as your subweapon. Your enemy will only be
Spiders, a very tiny yet fatal robot. So clear them whenever you
see them. Take this map as a guide

---                 ---                               ----
X - Locations of where Spiders will usually appear
O - Refill your sub energy bar
Firstly, when the mission start, the * mark will always be the
first where the Spiders pop up, don't worry, they are extremly
easy to kill. Then always follow the red arrow that Ada told you
but the first and the second, stay at the * mark there. They will
pop up at the same location twice, the third location, just head
to the right (the ! mark). And so on.....Don't worry, even in Very
Hard mode, If you are really careful enough, you can either get a
"S" or "SS" rank (I got a S rank on Very Hard mode playing this
mission)
The only thing you have to careful is the (!) mark, when the
Spiders pop up there, don't kill them just yet. Because doing
this will damage the fence surrounding them and thus drop down
your rank (that's how I got a "S" rank, I can't avoid hurting
it). Wait till the Spider walk up to a little distance, use
your melee attack. NEVER use long range attack on that area.
To ensure you got SS rank. Other area is ok, the 5th location
that they will pop up is on the (^). and the sixth location
that they will pop up is on the (%) mark. And so on, just
follow the red arrow will do, but don't be too late.....
Do not let them reach the buildings!
Where is the fouth location? Go back to the (*) mark there.
They will appear there. Good Luck on getting the SS rank!
I got it once, so I believe that you can do it too.
Here is my results (the best record that I've gotten through
playing 4 times)
Mode : Hard Mode
Buildings left : 100%
Survivors left : 100%
Rank : SS
And Dingo will be quite proud of himself, calling himself a genius
runner. Ada will really responsed him by calling him "Genius Runner"!!
INTERMISSION OVER..............................................
After this, intermission cutscene will take place. After this,
having back the controls, follow the arrow (Get the Metatron Ore
if you want to). Once you reached the destination and you will see
another cool  cutscene.
Now here is your another task, you have to destroy the train before
the time reaches zero.
- Easy if you play normal, a bit challenging when you play Hard and
Very Hard mode.
- Time remaining for the Normal mode is set on 10 minutes, while Hard
and Very Hard set the time in 5 minutes.
- Destory 5 parts of the train before the timing runs out, kill
the enemies around your way.
- To destory the train easily, You have 2 choices : Either you
do the fully charged burst shot, or you dash around and target
all the specific target and blast them away with All Way Laser
attack. (You must target all of the parts so that you will
destroy the train easier)
- Once you manage to destroy them, You'll have enemies pop up,
kill them all.
- To get to the other parts of the train, Dash front to reach it.
- Repeat the process.
- kTjun from the GameFAQs message board provided a very useful
strategy, Use your Phalanx subweapon, since when you target the
train. You will also hurt the other part of the train as well!
Making you destroy the train even faster than normal!
Once you destroy all the parts of the train, Jehuty will stop the
train from moving.
Then you will get the Decoy subweapon. There is another cutscene
through.....Then......
Proceed foward and get the Metatron Ore..And you'll found something
terrible happend.....Follow the arrow, go up, and turn right, then
go foward.
You'll reach a place....... Where you'll meet...........
~BOSS : NEPHTIS~
(Controlled by Viola AI)
The Fouth Battle
START
She won't give up don't she? This time, you will fight her without
using any items, and she still love to block and counter! What to do?
Easy, Equip the Gaunlet subweapon, when you saw her charging towards you
(sometimes you don't see her), Press L2 and evade her charge attack.
And use Gaunlet. While she's at the corner, the Gaunlet subweapon will
damage her really hard. Since there are other enemies around (known as
Clod). Press L2 if you lost her. She will run away, thus making you lost
the target. Try to destroy the Clods to recharge some of your subweapon
energy, and press L2 to see is she back to charge you again. Evade it
and use Gaunlet subweapon to hurt her. Always keep your distance away
from her. ALWAYS press L2 to check out whether she's back or not. Since
there are many enemies around, you will not know if she's back since the
Lock on target never automatically lock on to her.
There is an alternative strategy, provided by Aumaan. While she's away
Grab the Clod, and paralyzed it by pressing R2 while you're not moving
Press L2 to locate her after a while, when she's back, Guard yourself
up. And let her ram at you. She will be knocked down, so you know the
way...Corner her and blast her with your Gaunlet Subweapon!
Repeat the process, and always use L2 to locate and target Nephtis.
And after the battle, she's done for........
END
Nephtis is over for now.....yep, she's destroyed......And you'll
recieve the Vector Cannon subweapon device driver, and now, you can
use the Vector Cannon subweapon, but only on ground, and it's VERY
IMPORTANT for some missions. Taper will be there, shocked to find
out that you're formerly a part of BAHRAM forces (at the past I mean)
Taper will get very scared and think you're still working for BAHRAM...
Whatever it is, He will no longer trusting you now. Instead on that,
He will take you as an enemy now...
(What an annoying guy, I wonder why I have to save you at the first
place!)
Ardjet will arrive, and Ken will quite shocked about something.....
(Maybe about what Taper says before he leaves the screen.......)
And suddenly, Nephtis moved her hands, and assaults Ardjet! Now,
Ardjet will out of control and assaults you! And you will find out.....
Ardjet is possessed...by Viola AI!
Ada will tell you that you have to delete the program that Viola AI
infused inside Ardjet, and defuse Ardjet's operation system... Which
Dingo will never think that he have to "kill" her former comrade to
save somebody!
~BOSS: ARDJET~
(Controlled by Viola AI)
START
Oh yeah, you will fight Viola AI for the very last time.........
ARDJET MUST NOT BE KILLED!
You will see two health bars, the top one is Ardjet's life bar,
and the bottom is Viola's health bar. Take on my two advices here:
-NEVER ATTACK ARDJET! Once her health bar is gone, Kiss yourself
goodbye and watch your TV with the GAME OVER screen pop up in front
of you! ^_^
-Viola A.I is your target, and she will suck up Ardjet's health bar
if you don't do anything. It's an unexpected move, so if she does that
stop her by grabbing her, although you can't grab her, at least you
stopped her.
SO what to do?
Ok, get close to her. and Ardjet will use her sword attack, counter
her by timing her sword attack and press Square to do a sword slash
to clash the attacks. Yes, COUNTER HER, not guard/block her sword
attacks. After you've done this for 4 times. She will be knocked down,
take the opportunity to GRAB her and press R2. (Actually you don't
need it, but since R2 can delete her much faster). After a while.
Viola AI will escape from your deletion and either starts attacking
with using Wisps or her charge attack. Evade it, you know how to do it.
And after she's done with those attacks, get close and counter her
again. Repeat the process until she's completely deleted
END
Ok, Nephtis is destroyed, and the Viola AI is deleted, she will
begone from this game forever. And you will have a cutscene (funny!)
Hahaha, now you have to get down and save Ardjet once more since
she can't move! And you will get the subweapon Wisp
You will be at the place with larva.......
- Ok, grab on Ardjet, like how you did to Phantoma at the mission
on Deimos Station. And save her by going to the top of the larva, so
that you can exit from this hot place!
- For a fun fact (this info is provided from John Carter/Aumaan)
Thanks to him a lot! Grab Ardjet, without releasing her, go down
near to the larva. Ken will complain how hot it is. Not for too
long though ^_^. You'll know what happend next......
- Back to the topic, you have to get Ardjet by ascending her and
yourself to the very top.
- Beforehand, try to clear the enemies around you. They are endless
so don't bother kill them all. But you have to kill the enemies with
the Key symbol around them, because if you don't, you can't proceed
foward, some of the place is covered by a yellow barrier that you
can't go upwards.
- If those enemies attacks you, you'll automatically lose Ardjet. So
kill them and get back Ardjet (she will be falling, and those enemies
will focus on attacking Ardjet! How smart......)
- If Ardjet is low on health, Grab her and use R2 to burst youself,
to recover her health bar.
- Once you kill off 3 specific enemies with Key symbol, follow the
arrow and get the hell out of here!
Ok, you will successfully get up to the top! and mission will be
accomplish for here now!
-If you do the fun fact as I mentioned above, Ken will be half naked!
Not too extreme though so don't think so far! ^_^ Remember, larva
almost burned her uniform if possible, or she may feel too hot so.....
Common sense right?
Ken will get into Jehuty, together with Dingo. If you do the
fun fact that I mentioned above, Do you think it would be fun?
wooohhhhhh.......And note this is not forever.....She will put
her clothes on after a while. And how she does that!?
And your next mission is supposingly find Leo to discuss about Aumaan's
invasion. But knowing Ada's system and Jehuty's power is not enough
to do so, Plus, you still informed unknown about Anubis's performance.
Dingo (you) decide to find Lloyd. A research scientist who is involved
with the Orbital Frame production together with Professor Hardiman,
Nohman's father. He knows all about Jehuty and Anubis. So Dingo decided
to ask Lloyd about how to find a way to destroy Anubis.
You will reach the Security Defense area of outside Lloyd's city. You
can't proceed anymore foward due to the radar jamming. and you have to
walk to find Lloyd's city, using Jehuty.
So. Here is what you suppose to do:
- Ken will tell you about Lloyd's location with her mini detector. So
FOLLOW WHAT SHE SAYS!
- Since those instructions is in Japanese....You won't understand a
word she says if you don't know any word of Japanese, so here's the scoop
if you don't a thing about Japanese:
- "Migi" is Right "Hidari" is left. "Mo sukoshi migi/hidari yo" means
"A bit to the left/right".
- "Stoppu" means Stop. "Ah, Stoppu", "tomate!", "chotto! stoppu" or
whatever she says while you are moving is means to stop.
- "Susuno kokono shiuzen shite" (Is it correct? Or I heard it wrongly?)
means "Please change/correct the direction that you're facing now"
- If she mumbles, ignore her and wait for her orders.....
- "Ima, mae ni susunde" means "Now, you may proceed/ go foward"
- "Ki wo tsukete" means take care
(My Japanese is quite bad, so correct me if I'm wrong)
- If you don't follow her orders, You'll be in deep trouble! What will
happend, I leave the consequences for yourself to think.
- You will reach a place where you have to fight the enemies, clear all
of them, and you'll get the Halberd subweapon.
- After this, follow Ken's orders.
- If you find some floating mines along the way, press L2 longer to
unlock the target. DON'T EVER TRY TO DESTORY THOSE FLOATING MINES, If
they happend to attach on you, Guard it.
- If you continue to go foward, you'll see some mosqituo's. As usual,
press L2 longer to difuse the target lock-on. Guard, and proceed foward
- On some places, you'll see some missles flying towards you, Guard it.
- Continue.....and when you reach the place where you have to clear the
enemies to proceed foward, do so.
- After this. NEVER MOVE until Ken tells you what to do......
- If you done this correctly without problems at all, you'll reach
Lloyd's city. Intermission will come in, Lloyd will greet you.....
You will arrive on the big city, Lloyd's city, your target is to
get down to the Lloyd's Undeground base.......
Now that you've arrive Lloyd's city, clear all the enemies you found
(to level up of course.......)
- Press start to see the Map of Lloyd's City
- It's best to clear all the enemies so that you can fight those
enemies easier for the next stage (Level up), But if you want to
boost through the game, it's all right to straight go to the
Elevator (shown on map, if you see the diamond shape flashing on
the map, That's the Metatron sign, and the elevator. Not every
elevator shown is the way to the Lloyd's Underground Base!
- Where's the Lloyd's Underground? Press start, look at your map:
If you notice there is a place where 4 elevators arranged on a cross
shape? Go to the east side of the crossed elevator. Not really
understand? Let me go into more specific way:
Elevator                                             Elevator
Elevator
Elevator                           Elevator(!!)
Elevator
Elevator                                              Elevator
LLOYD'S CITY MAP (SIMPLE FORM)
If you go look at the map, and zoom out a bit, the map supposed to look
like this (I make it very simple, so...), The Elevator to the Underground
base will be marked (!!)
- After you got into the right way, after clearing the enemies, get
down...........
Lloyd will be impressed by your efforts of finding the way to meet him
But knowing there is still a long way to go.......Lloyd will ask: Will
you managed to get to the lowest Underground base? That will depends
how great you are!
- Ok, The Underground Base is compromised with 3 parts of Levels before
you can get to the lowest, thus meet Lloyd
- Remember, the moving pillar can kill! so don't get between them! Unless
you want the moving pillars to crush you like a flat pie........
- Destroy all the enemies before you can proceed downwards since the pillars
will only move in every section after you killed the enemies
- Before you get in the door down to the second level, Go to the back,
ascend yourself up a bit, and press L2, there should be 2 Ex-mission
files there.
- Always after this, follow the arrow. And make your way to the third level
(Second level also have something over there, but you may have to clear
the game once first, look for SECRETS section for more info)
- The third level is the same as first and second level did. But instead
to go straight down to meet Lloyd, check the path which adjacent to the
door on the floor in the bottom room. There will be another Ex-mission
file there.
- After this, Follow the arrow, get the Metatron Ore. And you will reach
Lloyd..............
Dingo have reached Lloyd, He will greet Dingo, thus intermission comes, and
Lloyd challenges Dingo into a fight, with his Orbital Frame, Inhert. (Don't
worry, he's not a villian, he's just a good guy who just can't betray BAHRAM....)
~BOSS : INHERT~
(Controlled by Lloyd)
START
This is a half-chicken battle if you ask me, Inhert will always leave
floating mines for you to play with. And run away, Track him, and never
got hit by his floating mines, Of course, use the All Way Laser to negate
all the Floating mines. And Guard his missles when he does that (the missle
will follow you)
*Get to the very bottom of the ground to locate another ex-mission file
Since long range attacks have difficuties reaching him...What you can do
here is quite a hard thing. Use Decoy as your subweapon, Try to get near
him by dashing towards him (I have no alternative way). Since you're toying
with him for the first time. I think it's quite hard to reach him without
a better way unless the clear the game once. (0-Shift...)
However, once you get near him, use Decoy to let him slash a "fake" of
yours (he's quite fast in melee attacks). And use Swing Sword Slash to
negate his guard. And you'll damage him, follow up by a dash slash (
While dashing press Square at the close range) to damage him more. He'll
leave some decoys (five of them) for you to handle. If you manage to
kill the fake one, don't worry, It won't hurt, try to find another
way but don't bother pressing L2 to locate him since he will be leaving
so many F.Mines, It will only confuse your targeting. Just try to get near
him, and the lock on will straight point into him.
Repeat the process of getting near him and use Decoy and Slash tactic.
Once his health bar on yellow. Lloyd will be quite impressed with your
skills. And thus going into his second phrase of his attacks.
~BOSS : INHERT~
(Controlled by Lloyd)
Continued from the last round, it's time for the second round. This is
fun, you'll be in complete darkness and you can't see anything! Inhert
is hiding on shadows and assault you. You won't be able to see what he
is going to do. But Ada will try to help you along the way to reach
Inhert so follow her orders.
Dash front when the lock on comes, Yeah, when Ada tells you about
something. Follow!
- F.Mine no sekkin, Kaihi shite kudasai (Floating mines is near,
please evade it)
- Misairu no sekkin, gohio shite kudasai (The missles is near,
please guard it)
- Tekki sekkin (Enemy is near / approaching)
- Tekki made (Enemy waiting / Enemy distance)
- Jyuu, Kyuu, Hachi, Nana, Roku, Go, Yon, San, Ni, Ichi
(10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1)
- Migi yo kaihi (Evade right)
- Hidari yo kaihi (Evade left)
- Gohio (Guard)
Whatever she says to take you near Inhert must be follow unless you want
to die from Inhert's attacks....Once you get near him, Again, use Decoy and
Swing Sword Slash follow by a Dash Slash. It's a lucky if he tries to
hit you twice and leave away, You can damage him more that way....^_^
For an alternative strategy, block his slash attack and counter him.
It works this way, too.
He sometimes leave 5 decoys for you to handle. 4 of them is a fake while
one of them is real, Once you got the real one, repeat the process mentioned
above.
Sometimes if you do All Way Laser, He will guard, and when you follow up by
slashing him he will still guard your attacks, So, save your Decoy, and straight
away slash with Swing Sword Slash. That works even better, but most of the time,
he will try to slash you away. So Decoy is extremely important when fighting
him.
Repeat the process that I've mentioned above, and Inhert will be defeated.
END
Inhert will get damaged, and his protective gel surround his Orbital Frame
will fade. Lloyd will congrats Dingo for defeating him, and agree to lend
Dingo a hand by transfering the 0-Shift program to Jehuty so that Jehuty will
have a chance to stand against Anubis. And Inhert will also transfer one of
his attacks to Jehuty, Floating Mine subweapon Device Driver. Now you can use
the Floating Mine subweapon. Since Dingo can't leave Jehuty for specific reason,
and Lloyd can't move his OF to transfer the 0-Shift program to Jehuty. Ken
will volunteer herself to represent Lloyd to transfer the program for Dingo.
But, Lloyd will ask Ken to hurry, Anubis is near. And Lloyd will know that
he can't get away anymore, since he had betrayed BAHRAM, Nohman will not
let Lloyd alive...
As the program transfers, Lloyd will beg Dingo to destroy Aumaan.....Where the
BAHRAM's main force resides. As soon as the 0-Shift program is succesfully
transfered........
~BOSS: ANUBIS~
(Controlled by Nohman)
START
Oh yeah, here he is. Still, you won't use 0-Shift yet since 0-Shift is not
yet installed into the Jehuty's system.....
And, no matter what you do, You'll never win Anubis, but try to get him down
around 15% of his health bar, Cutscene will occur...
END
Tough, huh? Lloyd will ask Dingo to get away. But, knowing that he can't
leave Lloyd just yet, you started to caught off guard. Anubis will throw
his lance? polearm? halberd? whatever....towards Jehuty, and Lloyd will
sent Inhert's Decoy to get you out of here, and he dies, well not really.
Anubis will go down, plug out Inhert's head (cockpit) and destroy it. Lloyd
is now dead.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Out of Lloyd's City......
Jehuty and Dingo is saved....and the decoy of Inhert is fading.......
Next you'll have an intermission, Ken is safe, hiding inside Inhert's body
while Anubis wander around. Now Dingo and Ken will have a talk.......
Now after the intermission, Dingo'll notice there are many BAHRAM Warships
hovering around.... What happend?
Then you will have an intermission with the BAHARAM Battleship commander
and the commander will commence their attack towards Jehuty. After that,
Dingo will contact Leo, telling him that BAHRAM's Battleship is heading
towards to where the UNSF is at, Where the UNSF have entirely no chance
to stand against the battleship since they are strong, and BAHARAM decide
to wipe out the UNSF's forces by using the air tactic! You will know those
Phantoma's are useless.......Dingo decides to destroy them and help the
UNSF once more.....
So you will have another mission to go:
INTERMISSION--------------------------------------------DONE!
Now you have to destroy all the battleships... And it's my favourite
mission of all! Destroy all the parts of the battleship and enemies
along the way. Beware when a signal "Danger" (a pink color gauge pops
up) appears. Move yourself so you won't get hurt by it's energy attack.
Anyway, to make sure you're safe while fighting the small enemies,
destroy the battleship's cannon before they start to pop up another
"Danger" sign again. Once you're done. Head to the middle of the
Battleship, If you see a Moving sphere, which attacking the sphere
will result on a yellow shield guarding the sphere, and it won't be
negated with any of your attacks, that's the CORE of the Battleship.
To destroy the core, get to the platform behind the sphere (That means
you have to stand in front of the sphere). Land yourself down, and
use the subweapon Vector Cannon (V.Cannon). Hold down Circle to charge
up. And you'll see a Vector charge gauge on the down-middle of the
screen, be patient, and let Jehuty finish the charge, once it's done.
Release the circle button and BOOOOOOOOOOM! You got it!
Once you destroy it, follow the arrow, and repeat the process mentioned
above. You have to destroy 5 of the battleships on this mission. Good
Luck!
INTERMISSION OVER..............................................
Once you're done......There will be a warning sound.....and.....
What the hell.........?
~BOSS : ZAKAT~
(Controlled by the Zakat Runners, 5 of them, in one HUGE Orbital Frame)
START
My favourite boss battle, and the easiest boss of all. But since fighting
on air feels so great, and the battle theme is super cool, I can't help
myself toying around that Huge Ball!
Zakat's attacks aren't that damaging, but has a wide range. Avoid yourself
when a Zakat Runner screamed "Membasu kakou, Ukae!". Dash yourself left
and right very quickly since the cannon blast attack will always follow you
where ever you go, If you go hit, you'll be pushed to the very back of the
screen.
Get youself INSIDE Zakat, and slash the body inside Zakat. Since it's huge,
it doesn't move much, so take your time until it blows you away, and it will
activated it's barrier, rendering all of your attacks useless, To deactivate
it's barrier, Put your subweapons selection to Grab, and find for the plates
that Zakat attached on itself. (Notice the grab words around Zakat, so be
smart and get near him), There 4-5 of those, You may not take it as a shield
but you can't hurt it either so do whatever you want and grab all the plates
and Zakat's shield will be deactivated, Get inside his body, and slash it
until Zakat's health bar grow yellow.
