- Final Fantasy X - NSG NS NC NS NBB NE NNE FAQ
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
- Q. What does NSGNSNONCNBBNENNE stand for?
- A. NSG - No Sphere Grid usage at all. You can't activate any nodes for any characters.
- NS - No Summoning (no aeons basically, except forced fights, like Isaaru).
- NC - No Customise option allowed. You can only use equipment found from monsters or bought from NPCs. Upgrading Celestial Weapons is okay.
- NO - No Overdrives (except forced ones).
- NBB - No Blitzball, so can't obtain items from the leagues/tournaments.
- NE - No Escaping. This makes the run a lot harder, since you MUST fight all encounters and can't escape.
- NNE - No "No Encounters". This goes along with No Escaping, forcing you to fight all encounters. It means you can't use the "No Encounters" auto ability on weapons/armour.
- Q. Why not use Dark Matters in Phase 1 of the BFA fight?
- A. If I do this, the Yu Pagodas will have more HP in the 2nd phase, and be harder to outright kill with Rikku unless I get very lucky.
- It's important to not allow his Overdrive to charge at the start of the 2nd fight!
- Q. Damn why don't you kill BFA's first phase already?
- A. I have to make sure I kill BFA with Auron setup with Double HP, Haste, Protect, Regen and Defend up, Rikku is in Haste and when his Overdrive is full.
- This forces the boss to skip his sword swipe (called Blade Blitz internally) and use Triumphant Grasp, which is easier to recover from as long as it also does not hit Auron. This then allows me to throw Dark Matters at the boss until he dies.
- Below 60K HP if his Overdrive ever fills, I lose automatically because Ultimate Jecht shot is impossible to survive in this challenge, so I have to make sure he never gets a chance to use that either.
- Q. Why are you fighting encounters on purpose?
- A. I might be farming specific equipment or items from monsters, feel free to ask me what I'm doing if it's not obvious! I can't escape from any encounters either.
- Q. How can you beat the game like this? It's impossible!
- A. With a high level of game knowledge, this challenge is very much possible, and requires quite a lot of planning to complete.
- Q. Why do you always change the formation/equipment after each fight?
- A. It's best to lead with high agility characters (Tidus, Yuna, Rikku) since they either have equipment that allows them to go first (Sonic Steel on Tidus) or high base agility (Rikku, Yuna) that allows you to swap into a slower character that might be useful. Later on, I might put Wakka in the party since he gets the Rematch, a weapon with Evade and Counter. Changing from the slower characters to the faster characters prevents dying to ambushes as much!
- Q. Why does this FAQ suck and not have a lot of q/a in it?
- A. My bad, if you have any questions ask me in chat! I will put them in the FAQ.
- Q. Why are you fighting that big blue blob/smol green tonberry/weird looking stony thing?
- A. It has a 1/14 chance of dropping Auto-Phoenix for Auron, which is needed for the final boss. You need it to recover from his Blade Blitz (sword swipe) attack. The tonberry is fought for Zombiestrike on Auron (fortunately the odds are much higher this time since I can get the final hit on it) and the Demonoliths are fought for Stoneproof for every character.
- Q. Will you do other challenges after this one?
- A. Definitely, I want to do single character challenges for Tidus, Lulu, Yuna (no summons), Rikku NSG perhaps and a bunch of other stuff!
