1. Berserk
///////////
This is probably one of the most annoying spells that will ever be casted on
you in your entire life. Mostly because, when your under the ailment, you
cannot control you character(s) whatsoever. Get out of this as soon as you can,
cause if you don't, you can get the whole party berserked, and that would suck,
you be pretty much done for. If you ever get berserked, cure it immediately
with esuna or a remedy.

Well, you get a little song as the prelude plays, but not much to do here.
Anyways, as you gain control of Tidus, walk over to the two hot girls and sign
their blitzballs. This will be the only time you can select your name, so pick
carefully. I will refer to him as Tidus throughout the game though. Okay, now
move over to the little kids there and sign theirs as well. Now, move into the
middle of the crowd to continue. Tidus now leaves by saying "Well, gotta go.
Cheer for me."
Now you'll be on a long pathway of people, where you here an announcer talking
about the blitzball game, Tidus's father, Jecht, and of course Tidus as well.
Just head on down to the end of the bridge, or stay if you want to hear more.
After you have moved on to the next screen, you will have to push your way
through a crowd of people to move on. Now, you'll witness a cutscene, a very
good one. I loved the scene, and I still do, but I've seen it enough by now,
and I don't even need to see it again. Ah, anyways, when the scene is over, go
talk to Auron. He'll join you after a short talk. Now after you have regained
control of Tidus, head on down to the end of the screen. Look up in the
Top-Left part of the screen and use the map to help you if you need it. Now,
in the next screen, make your way to the end of the bridge, where you'll
encounter a mini-scene. Afterwords, move to the end of the bridge. Now, another
cutscene occurs in which Auron tells you about Sin. Follow him down the path,
where you'll encounter some Sincales. After beating a few of them, Sin
releases sinspawn, which crashes into a building. It will then come crashing to
the ground, where you'll encounter your first Boss in the game, Sinspawn Ammes.
Boss: Sinspawn Ammes
This shouldn't be called a boss battle, for the simple reason that the bosses
here can never kill you. Oh well, at least you'll get introduced to more of the
battle system, as well as Overdrives. As the battle begins, Sinspawn will
unleash Demi, which will take you down to 1/4 of your current HP. Afterwords,
Auron's Overdrive will immediately fill up, and a small tutorial will appear.
Now, press left to bring up Subcommand Menu #2, and select Bushido. Now select
Dragon Fang. A screen will now appear, in which you have to enter a few
buttons. Be hasty though, because you only have four seconds to enter them in.
After the four seconds are up, whether you entered the keys or not, Auron will
unleash an awesome attack, killing off the Sinscales. From this point forward,
the battle becomes extremely easy. The only thing the Sinspawn can do is cast
Demi, watching helplessly as you beat the crap out of him, until he's dead.
You can also use Tidus's Overdrive, Swordplay, to help out with killing him
even faster. From here on out, just have Auron and Tidus attack, until the
Sinspawn dies.
After the battle, run past the wreckage of the fight, and use the save sphere
there. Now your HP and MP are both fully restored, and you have saved, so let's
head on, shall we? As you go to the next screen, you will again have to fight
these sinscale bastards. Anyways, while you are in the battle, after you have
killed a few sinscales Auron points out a machine-type thingy. Attack it,
until it falls. When it falls, just watch the next few scenes, until you have
control of Tidus again.
Now that you have control, swim over to where you see Tidus when he was
younger, and you'll then see a figure of Jecht. Tidus will then talk to
himself, and after a few more scenes, you'll end up at Baaj Temple.

Not very much to do here either. Anyhoo, after you gain control, swim right and
get on the island there and open the chest to get 200 GIL. Now, get off the
land, and get back in the water. From here, go up until you reach land. When
your on the land, touch the save sphere and save your game as well. From there,
go up the path and take the first left you see. Continue down the winding path,
and open the chest there to recieve a hi-potion. Now go back to where you came
in the path, and from here, go up instead. You will now fall into the water, so
head up. You will be ambushed by some sahagins. After killing two of them, a
big monster, known as Geosgaeno will attack you.
Boss: Geosgaeno
Well..., this isn't really a boss battle, and this isn't really a strategy for
the big beast either. So let's get strait to it--this fight can't be won
without a cheating device, and I'm assuming your not using one. So, basically,
the only thing you have to do is kill two of the sahagins, and Geosgaeno will
come out, and kill the last one. Next either defend, or attack Geosgaeno three
times. Don't use any potions, because the attack that he uses will always take
1/2 (50%) of your current HP. Example: your HP is 520. When He attacks you,
your HP will be 260 because it did 260 damage. The next time he attacks you,
it'll do 130 damage, bringing your HP to 130. Then, after three turns of that,
it actually let's you flee from it...kinda. After you attack it or defend three
times, it chases you around in the water, it lets you go.
Watch the cutscenes that occur and you'll be in the Baaj Temple.
After you escape, Tidus will be in a hallway. Walk up the hall, and into the
next room. In here, walk up to the remains of an old campfire, and examine it.
Afterwords, move into the top room, in which you go down when you enter it, and
your first move should be to move down and open the treasure chest there for an
ether. Now, continue up the hallway and examine the wall there for some
withered boquet. From here, continue up the hallway until you move to the next
screen. Walk to the end of the hallway here to find a hi-potion. Now, go back
out of this whole room, until your back to where the campfire is. Go to the
other room now. In here, examine the cabinet for a Flint. Get out of this room,
and in the main room, find the little opening there and open the chest for an
X-potion. Now, move to the campfire again and examine it. Watch the few
cutscenes, until you enter yet another boss battle.
Boss: Klikk
This boss is by far your hardest one thus far. This time you can actually get
killed. Attack Klikk until you need to heal, but you may not have to. After a
certain amount of damage is done, an Al Bhed Group blows down a wall, and the
girl, Rikku, will aid you in the battle. Now, It'll show you a tutorial about
using Items, the grenades. Use two of them and steal from Klikk to get either
1 or 2 Grenades. Which ever it is, use it or them to deal some heavy damage to
Klikk, most likely killing it. While your using Grenades, you should have Tidus
either attack or be healing the whole time. This battle will be over before you
know it.
After the intense battle is over, watch the few cutscenes that occur, and after
a few minutes, you'll be on an Al Bhed Ship.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Your now on an Al Bhed Ship, and you'll immediately spot an Al Bhed Primer in
the top-right corner of the ship. Go pick it up, and talk to the Al Bhed Girl.
A conversation will induce, and you'll talk about some important stuff that
goes along with the storyline. After this, talk to guy closest to the railing
on the left side of the ship to recieve 2 potions. You can talk to Rikku now,
and another tutorial will occur about using the sphere grid. After it's over,
talk to her yet again to dive in the water. When your in the ocean, swim down
to the Green Square to enter another screen. While your in here, you can swim
back out to go back up to the ship and talk to the same guy before who gave you
some potions again for some more of them. You can keep on repeating this trick
to get as many potions as you want. When your done with that, go back down into
the Sunken Ship, and go up and bang the on the machine. It'll cut on now, so
continue down the new path until you come to another machine. Examine it, and
it'll cut on as well. Now, you'll witness a cutscene, and you'll be on your way
out, until you encounter another boss.
Boss: Tros
This is yet another tough boss, as I said before. He can do some major damage,
killing both characters at one time depending on your HP at the time. Now let's
get started. When the battle starts, have Rikku Steal some grenades from Tros.
Tidus should heal or Attack when needed. Right now though, how Tidus Attack.
The next turn Rikku gets, use a grenade on it for some major damage. Tros
should get his turn, and on the second turn, he swims away from the party,
where Tidus ONLY cannot attack. You'll now be given a small tutorial again,
about using special commands, blah blah. Have Tidus cure the character that has
under 70 HP with a potion. That'll fill you back up, and prepare you for the
next attack. Rikku should throw a grenade, and you'll get hammered with a
Nautilus Charge. If you did what I told you though, at least ONE of your
characters will still be alive. Now, take your turns as you would, by having
Tidus attack or Cure, while Rikku steals grenades and uses them as well. After
a few more turns, Tros will swim away from you yet again. Now, if Rikku goes
before Tidus, and she should, have her throw a grenade. When Tidus gets his
turn, use the special command "Pincer Attack". Rikku and Tidus will now swim
over and corner Tros, negating the Nautilus Charge effect. Now, have Tidus
attack, while Rikku uses grenades until he's finished off.
After this battle is over, swim out through the hole, and continue swimming up
until you get to the ship. When your back on the ship, all of the Al Bhed will
go in the room, butting you out. Go talk to Rikku, and watch some cutscenes,
and a conversation will take place. During this conversation, it will be
Interupted by Sin, and Tidus gets knocked off the boat. It'll leave Tidus on
the beach of Besaid.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Your now at Besaid, the beach where you'll make friends with three more party
members, and you'll find some items as well. When you gain Control, move over
to the right and move up to the island and open up the chest for a Moon Crest.
Walk up to the blitzball players, and talk to them multiple times for some
items. Walk on over to the save point, and you'll meet up with Wakka. A
cutscene will occur, and now you must swim over to the chest to pick up a
phoenix down in the water. Now, move up and find the other chest, which
contains some more phoenix downs, three of them to be exact. Now, go on
through the river until you get at the end. Continue up the path, and when you
get to the top of cliff, Wakka and Tidus will have a little talk. Now head
down to the village. When your in the village, go in front of the item shop and
open the chest for some phoenix downs. There's also a secret area that's very
hard to see, but if you look REALLY closely, you'll see it behind the shop. The
chests contain a Hi-potion, 400 gil, and two potions. You could go on to the
shop and fill up on some potions or stuff, and go into the crusaders' lodge.
Watch the scene, and go pray at the temple to the north. Another scene, I know,
this game has a lot of them, now go to the house where Wakka's at. Take a rest
and you'll have a weird dream, in which you control yourself in. After that, a
scene will occur so let's go to the temple for some odd reason. Walk up to
Wakka and talk to him. Tidus will barge in, although he shouldn't. You're in
the cloister of trials.
Now your in your first temple. Temples suck and get annoying although you may
think your going to like them. Anyhow, touch the glyph on the wall, and a
glyph will appear on the other side of the wall. What the hell? Anyways go
touch to get the door to open it up. Touch the sphere-looking thing for a
tutorial about spheres. Pick it up, and put it in the hole in the wall to open
it. Take it out of the wall, and go down the hallway and out it on the left
side of the wall in the recess you first see. Continue down the hallway until
you come to another glowing glyph. Touch it, and take out the glyph sphere. Go
put the besaid sphere in the pedestal, but DON'T move it. Go get the
destruction sphere and place it where you got the besaid sphere. Go where you
just blew the wall up and open the chest for a Rod of Wisdom. Now go and push
the pedestal into the hole, and Wakka will show up. After you're in the lower
level, walk up to the crew. Now, you know what Wakka was talking about..."One's
got a short fuse, and who knows what the other one's thinking." After the
scene, atempt to leave and you'll meet the summoner. Watch the scenes and
you'll be ready to see another disturbing scene. Walk on up and Wakka we'll be
very nice and try to choke you while he takes you to see Yuna and Valefor at
work. Watch the scene, and you'll be amazed at what happens. So...watch the
scenes and it'll all of a sudden be dark..? What the hell, I guess it fell dark
NOW. Whatever, go talk to Wakka, and your new and improved team, which suck all
around unless you train your ass off, will learn there new moto. Go talk to
Yuna, and some idiot will tell you to stay away from her. Yes, I'd like to
knock the hell out of her too, but let's try to stay away from that for now. Go
on back and talk to Wakka, and go to sleep because were all so sleepy. In the
middle of our sleep, Tidus wakes up hears Wakka and Lulu having a small talk,
Tidus goes to eavesdrop. Wakka comes on over, and talks with Tidus and you go
back to sleep. When morning hits Besaid, Tidus wakes up and meets with Wakka.
Wakka gives you a neat-o sword, which is the best one you can have for a while.
Watch the scenes and when there over, leave Besaid.
Continue up the path like you normally would, and...wham! A fiend encounter!
Yes, this battle is staged, rigged, whatever you want to call it. It's a Dingo.
Have Tidus attack it. Tidus is the best to deal with these types of fiends. And
then...wham! Another staged battle! This time, it's a bird. Wakka specializes
in these fiends. After the battle, walk on through the path, two other staged
battles will occur. It teaches how to use aeons, and magic. Cool, eh? So
continue on down the path, and train a little if you want to. In the screen
with the pillars lined up and down the sides, you'll encounter...
Boss: Kimahri
Watch out, this guy is not as easy as you think. His attacks do about 50 - 100
damage, not counting his jump attack which does about 150 - 200 damage. Start
by using cheer, or haste if you have it. Now, attack him from now on until your
hurt. And you better keep your HP over 150 at all times. Every third turn
Kimahri has, you'll get pounded with a Jump attack, so watch out for that. A
smart thing to do is to use cheer until jump does about 100 damage and then
start attacking like mad. If your overdrive fills up by all means use it. It's
pretty simple though. And you'll also get a weapon or armor after the battle.
It's totally random though.
So, you just beat pretty much the hardest boss battle you been in so far.
Congratulations. Save your celebration please. Continue down the rest of the
paths until you get back to the beach. Talk to everone multiple times for some
items. Get on the ship, and you'll set sail.

Nothing much to do here. When you gain control, move Tidus to the main cabin
area of the ship and pick up the Al Bhed Primer there on the floor. More to our
collection, whoohoo. Now go back out of here and he to the lower cabins to get
to our good pal. O'aka. Well, I would give him all of my Gil, like I always do,
but you give him what you want to. Then go back up the deck and go over to
where all of the people are standing. A short scene will occur, blah. After it
go back down to the main cabins and SAVE your game. A boss battle is coming up,
so let's get prepared for it. Now, go talk to Yuna and watch the scene. After
they start to talk, it'll be cut short by the arrival of Sin.\
Boss: Sins Fin
The boss itself can't attack, so the only thing that can hurt you is the
Sinscales. Anyways, start off the battle by killing off 2 of the 3 Sinscales,
or you can use a little trick and kill off about fifty of them, netting you
some major AP, Summon Valefor. Hit Sin's Fin with a barrage of Thunder Spells,
and wait for your overdrive to fill up. Don't kill the other Sinscale UNLESS
you want to have them attack you until your Overdrive bar fills up. Unleash
your Overdrive (Energy Ray/Energy Blast) on Sin's Fin and Watch it die
mercifully.
ALTERNATELY:
Come into the battle with a hell of a lot of Potions (40 at the least). Keep
murdering every sinscale you see. After you're about out of Potions curing,
kill the Fin using the above method. At the end of the battle, you'll recieve
from 60 to 150 AP, depending on how many you killed.
