FF12 The Zodiac Age HOW TO GET SEITENGRAT - 100% GUARANTEED REKS METHOD *PS4 ONLY*

Final Fantasy 12 The Zodiac Age Tutorial
- How to get the SEITENGRAT BOW guaranteed!
In my previous video on this subject I demonstrated a valuable method for attaining this coveted weapon and I am pleased it helped so many. However a new method has now been discovered (see credit below) which guarantees the chest spawn each time, and so long as the player's timing is correct - the bow too!
The normal spawn rate for this weapon is 1 in 10,000 (1/100 for chest * 1/100 for bow in chest) but that just won't do! Fortunately, the RNG in Final Fantasy XII can be manipulated perfectly by using Reks to change the in-game variables to the player's favour.
NOTE TO PC USERS - USE THIS SETUP INSTEAD:

Credit for this particular method goes to streamer LetsGetPitted, you can check out his channel here:

One thing I would add, is that you can use Reks to manipulate the spawn of pretty much any item in the game - there are even third party tools available to help you find the Cure values that you need but I will leave that for another time.

Final Fantasy 12 was first released way back in 2006 on the PS2. At the time, it was considered somewhat controversial by many Final Fantasy fans due to its departure from traditional FF gameplay. However, it is now looked back on fondly and many would consider Final Fantasy XII to be the best entry in the franchise. In 2007 the International Zodiac edition was released (in Japan only), and this version of the game included a more traditional job-based system and a new battle areana. For this remastered release, these additional changes are being brought to us fans in the West for the first time ever - along with high resolution textures and remastered soundtrack!

*PC , XBOX & SWITCH PLAYERS* This method does not work for your version of the game. There are still ways to manipulate the RNG, but these are much tricker. This video works for the PS4 version only.

I played the game and got quite far in it the real way years ago on the PS2 version so I finally wanted to beat this game so I used the heck out of those invisible bows for all party members.

[@eugenemanuelmarcha614]

Why you guys have trial mode in ff12?

[@davidames793]

@@eugenemanuelmarcha614 not sure on your question. trial mode is just basicly the tower from mortal kombat

[@muhammadmustafa2363]

Thank you very much for creating this video. This method work for me on Sep 18, 2018 during my first try. I got the number sequence within 10 cures too! Will try to obtain 3. Edit: Yeah it took me less than 10 min to get 3. Thank you so much!

[@FuzzfingerGaming]

*IMPORTANT FOR PC PLAYERS* - Sadly, the RNG values are further into the sequence with the PC version of the game, so the healing number sequence in this video almost certainly won't appear. It has been calculated that the RNG advances every 1.6 seconds on the airship but it just needs to be worked into the number sequence for Reks' healing. I will make a new video as soon as there is a working method. If you're playing on PS4, then everything should still be fine. *EDIT (For PC players only)* Afer some testing, it seems there is some other factor that determines where in the number sequence Reks begins his healing numbers. Ie, you can load your Reks save file twice and be in a completely difference location of the healing sequence. It may be based on clock time or something else entirely. In other words, it may not be possible to manipulate the RNG with the PC version of the game.

[@hgipson]

I wonder if the loot timing once the chest spawns has changed as well. I didn't play the PS4 version, so I have very little practice, but I felt like messing with it this morning. I got 3 "natural" spawns of the chest by zoning, but the man on the stairs method never worked for me. I felt good about my timing - it looked just like the video - but I got gil every single time. (Fortunately, spawning the 3 chests only took about 10 minutes. Very lucky, that.) Does the man on the stairs timing work for "natural" spawns of the chest, or does that only work for manipulated spawns? Or for fresh loads of an auto-save vs. zoning in? My understanding was the Reks method was just to force the chest to spawn and had nothing to do with what you actually get in the chest.

[@FuzzfingerGaming]

Unfortunately the Reks healing sequence affects all the RNG, including the bow spawning in the chest. The timing when opening is just part of that forced manipulation but not the only thing (you still need the correct numbers).

[@Keshin4539]

OMG THIS 100% worked! My jaw literally dropped when I did this on my first try! Thank you and whomever discovered this method. Absolutely genius and fantastic!

[@carnagesensation4374]

After watching this, decided to give it a try, had laar or whatever his name in the party as a guest, needless to say, after making the reks save and getting the actual file to the auto save on the airship. Did the combo 88 97 90, took Maybe 30 seconds to get that combo on high speed 4, exited out went straight up, was the chest, waiting till he got up on the stairs for the forth time. Bam got the bow. Note you need to count the first time you pass him running to the chest as well, first try no warm up

[@ParkerP4218]

Carnage Sensation thanks for the tip about passing the man. I missed it first time I watched the video. Will try this again once I get back in from work. Hopefully its still working. Note to anyone that doesn't get the numbers....save the reeks file, then COMPLETELY exit the game back to desktop the restart the game. I spent 2.5hrs trying to get the number chain only to find I hadn't quit out and restarted. When I did I had the chain within 1 minute!

[@ParkerP4218]

Edit: tried this today after work...3 out of 3. Totally happy. Thank you !

[@Orcael]

Just wanted to pitch in and verify. Another commenter said he thought perhaps the fact that his Reks' HP/MP was a couple off from the video's, it might be a problem. My mana is off by 2 and I was still successful (I think the 23 magic power is all that matters). Also, other commenters are correct in that if you don't get the heal sequence in a couple of minutes, do a hard restart (close the application) to put yourself in another sequence rotation. Very successful -- before I read those comments, I'd sat there for almost an hour trying. Knowing that trick, I get the sequence consistently and without stress. Also the timing with the guy reaching the top of the stairs is critical. Missed it the first time by a split second and got gil -- every time I get it dead on, I get Seitengrat. Would also like to confirm this is still 100% after patch 1.02. And thank you for sharing, Fuzz.

[@FuzzfingerGaming]

Some great bits of info, thanks Orcael and congrats on your Seitengrats! Fuzz.

[@raymondcook7334]

[@Hyper_Egret]

I can say that as of today June 7, 2019. Version 1.07, Spanish language and on a physical copy of the game on a PS4 Slim. This method worked incredibly nice! Thank you for showing this dude, i can finally sleep well :)

You're very welcome and congrats, now enjoy your sleep :)

[@Brian-dt3et]

It works still, first two tries with this method and literally as soon as the guys feet hit the top of the stairs planted firmly on the ground the fourth time open it, I was skeptical but it really works.

[@jacobcrosby6278]

I tried about five different methods before this. This is the only one that worked. Thanks for sharing!

[@rashdbernardjr.4657]

does it work for xbox

[@DonCato87]

Thank you sooooo much! I had trouble with the healing numbers but read that you can use 97 94 95 too, which worked for me after every 5-10 heals. personally I found it more easy to combine this spawn trick with the running kid timing.

[@FuzzfingerGaming]

Nice, its great to hear how people are combining various methods to get their bow(s).

[@sgranman]

Can confirm these numbers are WAY easier for me to get too - three chests in 5 minutes. Edit: More information - when you get the chest to spawn this way, you can't watch the man as stated in the video - I only had luck watching the boy that runs back and forth on the side of the upper deck. When he stops at his father the 4th time hit the button.

[@MarinoKadame1]

FOr me the man works better than the child, when you reach the chest the man already went up the stair once, so you need to count 3 more time, the man is also more lenient when pressing the button when he's up the stairs.

[@mikep6043]

Funny how everyone says they've done it in seconds or minutes and I've tried both combinations for over an hour on 2 separate occasions and can't even get 2 numbers in a row.......I can't even barely get an 88 or 97 first

[@DonCato87]

If you can't get the number combinations in the first like 20 tries, just restart the application and try anew. In my experience the random number generator changes with a different set every restart.

[@jahushhaxha4866]

to get the exact same cure numbers your Reek needs to also have 42 MP. I tried with a Reek that had only 38 MP and I did not get the correct order for nearly an half hour. If you start a new game and your reek does not have 42 MP, then close the application via PS4 menu, and start it again and start a new game. btw, for 40 MP the cure numbers are "97 94 95". after I found this out I got the Bow two times in a row on first try. just keep in mind, the MP value matters. depending on the MP value you will get the cure numbers in different orders.

[@jeffsteelema]

I couldn’t get the sequence 88 97 90 for the longest time, but after closing the application from the PS4 menu and trying again it worked right away! I also found it worked using the sequence 97 94 95, then waiting for the boy to talk to his Dad four times, opening the invisible chest on the 4th trip right when he stops to talk to his Dad. I waited 20 seconds at the door of the sky deck before going up the stairs on the 97 94 95 sequence with the boy/Dad timing. The key for me was knowing the boy talked to his Dad as I was coming up the stairs which meant I needed to count 3 additional trips from that point. If you let him go a 5th time you get the dreaded knot of rust! After I figured that out I was able to get 6 Seitengrat’s in about 15 minutes without any issues! Thanks for the great video Fuzz, I am subscribing to your channel for sure now and I’ll be watching a lot of your FF12 videos for sure. :)

[@laiofurious6433]

A little late, but these methods comes from PS2. There were a lot of methods for manipulate RNG and I guess this thing works the same for Zodiac Age. They just mess with the numbers in the game archives. In the end, RNG are not other but commands that activate or deactivate specific results at calculations for the game that leads to get something or other thing.

[@turjoyghose2670]

If you're trying this but you dont get it you could be one or two problems: 1) you're counting the number of times the guy comes up incorrectly. In the video you only see him come up three times but the video guy counts to 4. Video just doesnt show the first time and you dont see it either unless you just look for him. So when you're running up to the chest counts as 1. 2) you could be opening the chest TOO quickly. If you're trying to account for the input lag to your ps4 or xbox, in a real world scenario you'd have to press the button WHILE the guy is coming up the last set of steps so that he stops right at the top of the stairs. But this is WRONG. The game actually gives you a LOT of time to open the chest - a good half second if not more. So just take it easy and wait for the guy to fully make it to the top of the stairs before you open the chest.

[@kosmek8878]

for those who are wondering I'm doing this right now and it still works!

[@kevindelp7061]

Patch 1.0.7 on ps4 and still works

[@jeroanttonen3317]

Had no memory of how to do this but just tried this on my new playthrough after completing about everything else in the game except gathering the invisible weapons and it worked on the first try. Excellent!

[@bdmaxwell5917]

AWESOME!!!!!!! I tried the other timing method and never got the chest to even show up. Got the bow the very first time I tried with this method. THANK YOU!

[@shadowending7529]

Does it work on the switch version

[@KingX]

No because the Switch version doesn’t have static RNG so the RNG is reset every screen load. GameFAQs users are working on a workaround. In the meantime you have to contend with that 1/100 chance chest spawn. Basically it’s like the PC version but without the cheat mode. As for the "man on the stairs" step I actually did get one doing that but I think I was just super lucky because every other attempt failed, and I made sure I had the man screenshot-perfect.

Seriously? Everyone I watch do this gets the right combination in like a few minutes. I did this shit for hours off and on and not once got the right combo.

[@MarinoKadame1]

Try for some minutes and then close the app and restart the heal chain on Reks if you didn't get it.

[@ThePlaydohWarrior]

Took longer to watch the vid than get my 3......

[@idno4856]

Chris Smith. I have the worst of luck with these things normally and I was pretty skeptical at first, but managed to get 3 within a few minutes. Just make sure that you follow everything to the letter. Make sure everyone around the save crystal is dead and don't save at the save crystal; only use it to replenish your MP. Also make sure that before starting this step you have completely closed the game (not just exited to the main PS screen). It's probably just psycological, but I found standing near the save crystal just to the right worked best. But it should work within a few minutes. If not, restart your game (or even maybe your console?)

[@MarinoKadame1]

This method is also used for the Great Trango and Gendarme.

[@papazigzagify]

For me I had to go up a level and kill everyone then go back down and save I couldn't get above 94 before

[@TemmieHoi64]

Still works in 2023. Thanks for your video, awesome stuff. Really helped me out here

[@Nytezero]

Worked like a charm. It really works, the last part is timing though, open the chest half a second after both his feet are on the top deck, opening it immediately MAY be a tad too soon and the chest will just give you 10 gil

[@FuzzfingerGaming]

Yeah getting that timing right is important but glad this helped!

[@Origin727]

Does this still work?

[@toweringflesh]

Origin777 yes absolutely. i literally just found this video 30 mins ago, followed the method precisely, and now my party is fully stacked with 6x bows. Other people in the comments have mentioned a few things i’ll reiterate here for you, since the rng manipulation trick worked every single time for me but it took several times for me to get the timing right on when to open the chest. Make sure you count the NPC the first time you encounter him on your way up the stairs (you pass him while he’s on the stairs, and by the time you reach the chest and angle the camera appropriately to watch the NPC, he’ll be on top of the steps for the first of those four times). The fourth time he comes up the steps, open the chest directly as he makes his left turn. My issue was opening the chest the moment he got to the top of the steps (but before beginning to turn direction), which ended up giving me 10gil twice. The timing on it doesn’t even need to be EXACTLY where you see it in this video; i still got the bow by opening the chest a half second or so after. From my experience, it’s all about the NPC’s fourth stair ascension + him turning left to begin walking to the railing he stands at whilst not moving up and down the steps. Lastly, with regard to the RNG manipulation curing chains of 88, 97, and 90 on your Reks save file, i believe the first time you utilize it you’re guaranteed to get those three numbers in correct order pretty quickly. However, if you happen to mess up the timing of opening the chest upon loading your main save on the airship (getting gil or a knot of rust instead of the bow), make sure to completely exit out of the application before reloading the Reks file. Otherwise, it was impossible for me to get the curing chain combo i needed. Same rule applies to getting multiple bows; as soon as you get one, exit the airship deck and re-enter it once more (so as to overwrite the previous quick save file), completely close down the application, reopen it and then load your Reks file. This will enable you to get the sequence of cures again easily, exit to main screen, reload back to airdeck, and get another bow.

[@NUDEoctopus]

CONFIRMING!! Still working in 2023🎉 thank you so much for this guide!!!

[@andrewcampbell945]

For anyone wants to know if this still works. That is a yes. Thank you for this video. I didn't want to go through 90% of this game with this weapon. I wanted to go through it and beat it with the regular weapons you can buy from the game first and magic. This method works every time. Thank you once again!! I can now retire this game with every weapon and magic and all beastry. 100% complete. With 3 of thes weapons in your arsenal, there's no enemy that can stand in your way. Making the game almost pointless to play. If you do manage to beat the trials and start the game with "New game-" having this weapon will even things out.

[@VVhirl]

Do you happen to know if this works in the switch version?

[@Appstoregamestester]

Seems like the chances of getting 88, 97 and 90 in a row are about as high as trying to get the weapon without any tricks. Stood there for over an hour and I couldn't even get 88 and 97.

[@meachew]

It still works! Thank you fuzzy finger. :)

Just give me the bow for killing Omega or something. I shouldn't have to pat my head, jump up and down 3 times and give a reach around to a spider monkey to get a weapon 😀

[@adamgray1753]

Sony: Oh yes you will! If we give you the possiblity to have a hidden super weapon and/or equipment in *our* games you best be giving those reacharounds to those spider monkeys or else!

[@JoJoZiddy]

I was trying this for over an hour and had no luck getting the right numbers. Then i reset the game and got it instantly after that. After countless tries on the 32 step method I'm glad to finally get a Seitengrat, thank you for this method.

[@FuzzfingerGaming]

Congrats!

[@monochrome7910]

Works perfectly 6 times in a row! Thanks bro. You’re a lifesaver. 😁

[@cornflakeshumunculus8373]

2020 pc cheat engine TZA method still works and the bow is extremely powerful and makes the game stupidly easy. If you wanna have a challenge I recommend you never use this bow for your full gameplay. Makes the zodiac spear from original FF12 PS2 look like nothing.

After messing around a bit Everytime I load my Reks save, I'm able to get 88 97 90 in under a minute 3 bows :) Lv 9 doing 1200 hits! Thanks mates!

Totally worked. First try. Was trying for ages and this method worked right away

[@seanr291]

Fuzz I have watched so many of your videos I hear your voice in my head! This worked as of 2/29/2020 using this exact technique just make sure as you go up the stairs towards the chest that you count the man already being on his first trip. So count 3 more full trips and BAM...beautiful bow!

[@steventurford1382]

It's working

I was skeptical... but i got six seintegrat in a row on my first try, and it took me only half an hour for all! IT REALLY WORKS! GREAT JOB!

[@BobMarleyChiti]

Again the child's method. That's just a superstition. This is what you want to do for a guaranteed 101% Seitengrat spawn, go to the bathroom and pee, turn on the lights, close the door and open it immediately and turn the lights off, run to your ps4 and the next time you climb the stairs the invisible chest will be there. If you stumbled before reaching the ps4 better that will increase the chances. Also don't forget to pet your dog if you don't have one, well...bad for you. No bows for you.

[@latinstuff1]

BobMarleyChiti lol wtf

[@samuelpeters2632]

BobMarleyChiti tell me why i did something like this and 2 tries later i got it😂

[@lorenzoflores5406]

Its a 100% real it works you just gotta wait for the guy to turn a lil once he hits the top from walking back up

[@AaronPierceStaton]

After getting the seitengrat bow multiple times on an emulator, abusing save states, I can tell you certainly the pull is not RNG. I don't know about the spawning of the chest, but the pull itself is not random. Random assumes that the items pulled are in no particular order - jumping around like a massive joint at a Bob Marley concert - but that's not the case in this pull and any other I've encountered in the game. The chests are cycling through a set order of items. So for example: knot of rust, gil, knot of rust, seitengrat, knot of rust, gil, and so on in an order every time. This is why the child's method does in fact work, and so does your ridiculous example. If you know when the item you want is available in this order, any measure of timing will do. You could setup a metronome and count how many ticks it takes to get the item. Get it right once and you can count the ticks to get it all the time.

[@mathiasnaatz4565]

This definitly works. Just really got it 3 times in a row. I was just as sceptical but was proven wrong. This is realy interesting.

[@Axtmoerder]

this method is not reliable at all. it can take minutes or forever for the correct healchain to show up. im sitting here for 40 minutes, including restarts of the game ever once in a while to reset the RNG. not once have i gotten even the 88 and 97 in a row. so this video is pretty much useless for me. its still RNG after all, if it works for you its complete luck, other players like me may never see these numbers in their lifetime

[@nospoons]

Axtmoerder sorry you feel this way. May luck ever be in your favor

[@Orowam]

Axtmoerder well it's definitely gonna still be RNG - the difference is that you're not going for 1/10000 odds. You're going for the much easier healchain odds.

[@justmepeach2708]

Not sure if it works for everyone, but I had to close out the game completely each time I went to Reks for the healing numbers. I got 88, 97, 90 the 4th,5th, and 6th time I cast the spell EVERY SINGLE TIME I did this. Hope it helps

[@Druffmaul]

Sucks that it didn't work for you, but it worked for me six times in a row, approx. five minutes per cycle. One try did seem to take twice as long as the others. But every time I got 88, 97, 90, I went back to Air Deck auto save, sure enough there was the chest, and opening it when the guy reached the top of the stairs for the fourth time worked every time. Six times in a row. I'm guessing there must be at least one part of the procedure you flubbed. You can say "Nope, I did it 100% correct" but the only way I'd believe that would be if you posted a video. =P

[@Geallach83]

3 out of 3 for me. So it's not the method, it's RNG.

[@Frozenh]

On 30 seconds method I’ve spent several hours and didn’t get. I did this one in 40 minutes and got 6 in a row. This is really guarantee, you have my respect bro, thanks to put the effort to bring this to us

[@davidcassels7312]

The 20 second version was a total nightmare. Lol. Thanks for sharing.

[@neroziozama4902]

It worked for me. I thank you FuzzFingerGaming for this loop-trick. If it us of any use to anyone, the sequence of healing points numbers with reks maybe is related to the time in the game. At was ot minute 08. And the guy running up the stairs wasn't already heading to the left, but was just with two feet in the upper deck, so it is probably a matter of one whole second, not a super high precise moment. Thank you again. I use sequence 88-97-90 anyway, like the video and my party was with 3 members, so nothing unusual. Hope everyone can get this annoying bow.

[@fatmanslam4302]

The way fuzzfinger explained it worked for me the very first time, TY

[@magicjewel8911]

I want to say thank you so very much! It took some practice to get the timing right, and the first time I hit the x button at the right time, but it did not loot the chest because I wasn't close enough... but I got it!!! Anyone trying this make sure you are indeed close enough to loot the chest. (I pushed him against the chest as I hit the x button to loot) Awesome video!!! I cannot thank you enough for my new weapon!

[@madimadz9582]

I got it! Thank you so much! I actually got the 88, 97, 90 numbers on my first attempt but got the timing wrong with the guy walking up the stairs. Then when I finally managed to get the three number combo again, I got it on my second try. Excited to see how it'll work, though I'm in late game so it might not do that much. But still really happy that I got it!

[@FuzzfingerGaming]

Brilliant. This is perhaps the ultimate weapon so should be useful even in the final parts of the game!

[@meistarkus]

Worked perfectly today 9 March 2020! Got 10 Gil the first 2 times. Then I realized, that i pressed just a bit too early, so the guy was just not quite completely up the stairs. So for all having the same issues, press x when the guy has both feet on the ground and has cleared the stairs completely. Thank you mate! Great stuff!

[@dziak1527]

Works perfectly on PS5 in January 2021. First try following exactly what you showed. Thanks a lot!

[@rinoalionheart7202]

This worked for me within minutes, and on the FIRST try!!! I can't believe it. However, one guy commented that if Rex has a 40 mp, then the numbers are 97-94-95. I got that within seconds. And instead of watching the guy on the stairs, I watched the kid run back and forth. On the 4th kid run to his parent, I clicked X as soon as he stopped and Voila!!! Thank you!!!!

Dude thank you. 10plus years on ps2 switch and Xbox and finally got 1 today

03/25/2019, can confirm this still works 100%. Make sure to replicate exactly what he shows, including reks' stats. If you start a new game with Reks having different stats, start a new game till you come up with 42mp. Managed to get 6 Seitengrats in 15 minutes. Thank you!
