Final Fantasy XII The Zodiac Age How to Get 10x GEMSTEEL - FOR ULTIMATE WEAPONS

When you're farming damascus steel you can go to the feywood and back it is a quicker route

[@mpoadmin2978]

You can also get Damascus steel by plowing through the pharos second ascent theres some similar looking dudes in there that drop it when you chain them

[@ForeignSpices]

Such and absolutely beautifully crafted game.

[@OriginalRyan]

For the Scarletite, I used a path from Echoes of The Past > Slumbermead > Hope's Reach and back. Got 4 in about 25 minutes. Hit 40 streak, so approximately 1 every 10 kills.

[@Lady_Mando]

For the Damascus Steel, it's quicker to run to The Feywood than it is running all the way up the mountain. For the Hell's Gate Flame, Monograph drops are not part of the chain loot table, so it's better to NOT chain them together. The higher the chain level, the less likely you are to get the Monograph drop. For the Scarletite, it's better to run from Echoes of the Past, into The Slumbermead, into Succor Midst Sorrow, and into Lifeless Strand and then run back to the Echoes. There's two additional Emeralditans in The Slumbermead thus making your trips more efficient.

[@RanEncounter]

Chain drops are independent of the monographs. It does not matter if you have a chain or not.

[@715basser]

You don't have to run all the way to Mt. Bur-Omisace. Running there you already went 3 zones. I just turned right back after exiting the Frozen Brook area.

[@kuti1295]

A bit faster method for getting Damascus Steels, same as with Scarletite: kill enemies to spawn Anchag, steal the Damascus Steel (don't kill it), go to the Save Crystal and Anchor zone (you're zoning twice), head back and repeat.

[@deathhere5203]

Don't do double zone follow the instruction fuzz give it won't respawn other wise. Cause I tried to double zone it in killing the enemies doesn't work for double zone u literally got to leave that map.

[@toddolsen4604]

I just started Zodiac Age but I recall from the PS2 you only need 3 Gemsteels. But the trick is you need to have ALL ingredients for both weapons. Sell them all at the same time and your 3 Gemsteels will also check the 2 Gemsteels requirement.

[@SquallVIIIfan]

@@toddolsen4604 That’s not a trick.

[@fadix6230]

If you do both weapons at the same time , you well only need 3 . Great guide keep it up

[@FuzzfingerGaming]

Thanks!

[@Forever18or21]

Fadi X 3 what?

[@AlekTrev006]

3 of the Gemsteel - the idea is, if you have every single ingredient for both Tournesol and Khumba (which would be 3-Gemsteel, 3-Orichalcum, 3-Empyreal Soul, 3-Serpentarius, and 2-Mallet...and you sell all those items, one after the other, in a single "bazaar session", when you back out from the Sell menu and see "New Bazaar items are available !" - when you check Bazaar, at that point, you will see BOTH Khumba and Tournesol there for purchase. The game counts your 3-Gemsteels as "going towards both" of the recipes, because you sold everything in one go.) Handy !

[@obadiahkilgore2964]

AlekTrev006 that's true it's in my strategy guide too good job catching that.

[@jonesistheman]

Thanks for sharing!

[@vegnagunx3880]

It took me about an hour to collect 5 Scarletite since I killed the hunt Turtle a while back my only option was the first one😥 but managed to collect all that was necessary. Always appreciate your walkthroughs thank you.

[@llRecks]

There are actually 4 possible Emeralditan spawns in Nabreus Deadlands. 2 Spawn in the Slumbermead. 1 spawns in Echoes of the Past. And then when you return through the Slumbermead if you check the left path where you previously killed one, there will often be a 4th spawn. Then two screen away through the area with the Save Crystal and repeat. Still not super fast, but better than farming just one or two turtles per run.

[@insanepolarbear]

I think its much faster to get Damascus Steel from Bluesang in Cerobi Steppe. Join the hunt club to have him spawn in a certain area (near some windmills) then Steal from him. Run away from him to change zone (its right next to him) to get an auto save and reload save (or run away two zones). Go back in and steal again, he spawns 40% of the time and always in the same spot. Its important not to kill him since he's a Trophy Rare Game and stay dead once killed!!

[@AlekTrev006]

I second this - Fuzz, the Bluesang method is outrageously fast. As insanepolarbear points out, you simply steal from him - run back to the save crystal zone, and then just past it (since it's a tiny zone just with the crystal and a Strahl anchor point) and then you've "zoned twice" and turn immediately round' and go back to Bluesang, to steal again. Far quicker than having to slay all 12 enemies in Karadyne each time, and then wait for the stealing to be successful from Anchag, etc. Both methods work - don't get us wrong - I just think if you have Bluesang still available in your games, then people would be better served / faster to use him :-)

[@Jmack7861]

insanepolarbear nah this way is faster, I've used both methods and am never going back to the cerobi step for it again(this was with the original version but I don't think they changed the spawn/steal rates from the original)

[@thepetermullins]

Didn't have the monograph either, after 20 minutes googled what I was doing wrong. Not sure it was mentioned in the walkthrough, apologies if it was!

[@taipan9604]

There's more than 1 emeralditan in Nabreus deadlands, 1 or more north and 1 or more south, in the same zone seperated by a bridge.

[@plane2602]

To get the Scarletite I went back and forth from the save crystal to Echoes of the past as you can also pass another turtle in The Slumbermead area. I also used steal, have no idea if this helped but I got 4 scarletites in 30 minutes..

[@Arachnocopium4U]

Very good guide but I prefer to get the Gemsteel from the Level 99 Red Chocobo. Even with the Stone method it takes a while (though it is possible for it to spawn within 10 minutes or less if you're very lucky) but it's worth the time and effort because defeating it guarantees you a Ribbon and it has a 90% chance of it dropping a Gemsteel (with Knight Monograph) and a 90% chance of a High Arcana (with Canopic Jar). You can also steal Elixirs/Megalixirs from it and possibly, if you're really lucky, an Empyreal Soul). Much quicker than any other method I find, at least by comparison to finding/creating all the ingredients separately. Last night I manage to get 3 ribbons, 3 Gemsteels and 2 High Arcanas consecutively from the Level 99 Red Chocobo.

[@kieranhines7890]

Does the red chocobo respawn infinitely ?

[@Arachnocopium4U]

@@kieranhines7890 Sorry for the late reply but yes it does. It won't spawn at all until Reddas joins the party but after that you can get it to spawn at any time for as many times as you like even once Reddas is no longer in the party, it just might take a while.

[@One.Zero.One101]

@@Arachnocopium4U I'm kinda losing motivation in getting the Tournesol, it seems all the options are too long. Maybe I'll just go for the Kumbha.

[@chroniccintronic9287]

You could also just go to Cerobi Steppe,go to the blue save crystal/anchor and farm damascus steel at the "crossover" on the map. Bluesang spawns between two pillars and can steal damascus steels much faster. The save crystal is one zone and theres another zone that hugs the save zone. Cross into that zone and then back two, all in one motion and its the fastest spawn/farm. Its also right in the same area as the tortoise, just the neoghboring zone.

[@ForgottenAzhell]

just to make it like 10 seconds faster you can also just head out to feywoods then come back in its a shorter run so you can farm a little faster.

[@WokeandProud]

You can actually just zone to the feywood and back it takes a very short time and it's much closer.

[@DrkshdwG]

The Damascus Steel is also dropped from the same headless enemy type in the Pharos. Think its more of a rarer drop can also be poached.

[@shanetresler8157]

I know that chaining them dont increase the percentage but it does increase the drop rate just in case some one wants to know

[@AshflowEX]

Oh thank God you're making this i really want to get the "Tournesol" i didn't get it before on the PS2

[@RobertLewis85]

Great guide Simon, you're the king of FFXII guides and the king of all of YT FF content

[@dragonofthesky9999]

there is 2 emeraldtitan spawns for the last item and you can run a circle arround the 4 areas and i got 4 of Scarletite in about 15 mins.

[@fez245]

Spent an hour farming before i realised due to your video i didn't have the hunters monograph 😫

[@grammaton6leric]

For anyone trying to do this currently: I would suggest stealing scarletite from Aspidochelon. It's much faster than the other method. For the hell's-gate flame there really is no fast method. You definitely want the Hunter's Monograph, and I know Fuzz said chaining doesn't matter but I used that method. Even if it makes no difference for the drop rate this at least gives you a visual progress-cue which helps with not getting frustrated. Just turn off your attack gambits and manually kill both wolf-type enemies you see in the area--your chain will start building. I got my first flame around chain level 95 and the last one I needed around 350. Good luck!

[@ryanfieldflower602]

Awesome thanks!

[@LN-Lifer]

If I don't get scarletite from the turtle in Cerobi should I reset my save or can I just continue zoning until I do so?

[@Knizzle28]

@@LN-Lifer you can zone every time u steal it. Don’t kill it until u are completely done.

[@therealcrazygamerz5815]

Only advice I say is the monograph for the hells gate one. Could have said it beforehand spent a good hour trying to get them to learn I'm missing an item but thank you for at least mentioning it no other channel mentioned that part after I got it was done with that step in about 30 mins

[@Joker-jk4zm]

Going to the feywood is faster ;)

[@dealpha3698]

You can yes exit 2 place and get back to the enemy and steel another item, i been doing that for some reason they got item again to steal

[@shadowrebels1623]

Damascus Steel can be obtained by stealing from Bluesang upon starting the Phon Coast Hunt Club, easy to make him spawn, and reset the game every time you steal but don't kill Bluesang if you want more Damascus... you know how it works, steal, flee, change zone, reset, find Bluesang again, steal, feel, reset as much as you need

[@6vturbo538]

zone out 2 zones and back and you can spawn the enemy and he will have demascus steel on him. the same goes for all other enemies with rare materials as far as i know.

[@disastertank548]

but if u kill him u need to leave the area if u didnt kill him u can go 2 zone and back

[@MrJules39]

Quickest way to farm Damascus steel is Bluesang. Cerobbi steppe I think it is. Steal from it, 2 zones, come back, steal again. took me about 15 minutes to get 8.

[@readytogame83]

Ive loved ff games for years and played them all now started again you channel is a great help thank you 🎉

[@emilyarment4330]

6:42 i think you can just go 2 zones away and come back

[@DethWhyte]

A bit of advice for some. To actually get the Cerberus to start dropping hells gate flame you have to have a chain of at least 3 started. So what I did was put vaan up and did his attacking manually then put Fran gambit as hp status = critical and then attack and I used ashe for no attacks but up as a poach every so often if Cerberus was not dropping and it seemed to even out on acquiring the hells gate. Got all 10 within probably 20 to 30 mins. Also I just zoned out through the area of the save crystal and that seemed to reset the enemies well.

[@Jmack7861]

Jeremy Evans you probably just got lucky, the monograph drops don't have anything to do wit the chains

[@mokumshardest]

i had killed that rare mob from the hunt quest ,right before i realised it has scarletite . And that i needed that to make gemsteel. I thought i was screwed,lol . Luckily you found another way of getting it . Couldnt find any other guide that had alternatives. Drop rate so far is fairly doable. It gave me 2 scarletite in roughly 20 minutes

[@alexr.138]

If you teleport to Dalmasca Estersand and play the fishing game you can get the starletite needed for tournesol and kumbha much faster than the turtle. Takes about an hour to finish and then ~20 minutes to get scarletite from the best fishing spot AND you get adamantite at the same time.

[@fabricior.medeiros6155]

You can farm Chocobo lvl 99, in Ozmone plains. He ever drops a gemsteel + high arcana + a ribbon.

[@Nameless.Hermit]

[@GenAdams]

buy you can sell the gemsteel at the same time with the kumbha items, the game will count them together reducing the amount needed, right?

[@GooseGumlizzard]

Definitely kill the Anchag once you steal the Damascus steel, because he sometimes drops High Arcana.

[@jay-easy311]

Also you can lure him to the edge of the zone and use the same trick on him that you use on Dustia early game to respawn him with a fresh inventory

[@populousmist03]

Thank you for the insight. First time playing zodiac age and so much is different ESPECIALLY farming Dalmascus Steel. If I could make a suggestion? Instead of killing Anchag and having to go through those mechanics, I've just been stealing. Once I have the Steel, there is an exit in the north western most part of that area. Exit that, then head kind of south west for the exit to the feywood. Then go back the way you came, clear the area and there is Anchag again. I do have to admit, I feel like this way is messing with gambit a tad more, but with speed up turned on I find myself saving lots of time. Not that your method is bad or anything by any means, just thought I would share that

[@populousmist03]

Update: took me about I wanna say 25 minutes to get all 10

Great vid again but I'm an expert at the old ps2 version and your right about cerebus but if you equip Baan say,with the water sword massamarasa gambits to foe water weak they the Cerberus will only be attacked get penelo ideally ,to equip Excalibur foe holy weak the tartarus blue ones and who ever buffing up vaan and penelo they spawn the same places everytime. So two zone away past the Crystal into were the mirror knight's are back to them and although they hells gate flames are only five per cent it's better to chain them reason is when they do start to drop them they seem to do it all at once it took me an hour and it is humbley worth the grind the scarlitite there's three of them the one you farmed thread another to you left diagonally head down to mini bridge through the barrier into open field one there and head back to Crystal back out twenty mins but your ways quicker I'll try on new version but did you know you can get Damascus steel in the step off the very same method off a rare game June called bluesang just same as the tortoise same steal technique same method and all three items should take two hours max. Try getting soul powder that is fun. Not lol

The best way to get Hell Gate Flames is to not pick up every dropped item after defeating a fiend, I tried doing the chain method but to no avail.

The same method can be applied for getting Serpent Eyes from the Basilisk, to make Serpentarius.

You have to have the Hunter's Monograph or it will never drop, as you just unfortunately found out.

[@MegaDeadFetus]

Thank you sir for bestowing your infinite wisdom upon my retardation :)

[@champion0527]

Np the grind in this game is hard enough!

[@MegaDeadFetus]

Its' not to bad. Most issue with this video for me is the Scarletite. I even got the Seitengrat bow in 15 minutes so I guess the RNG has been very nice to me thus far

[@MrJules39]

Oh, and put EVERY character to steal. Thief's cuffs didn't seem to make any difference for some reason

[@tensaygamer4730]

in this video ur audio is great. but on some others i cant hear u. try to fix that plz.

[@DarkSchuller]

For the Hell Gate items you should ONLY kill the dogs to build up the chain bro! a lot quicker.

[@FuzzfingerGaming]

Hmm, I'm almost certain they are a Monograph drop which are not affected by chains.

[@xaviergovindan9966]

Mikkel S Doesn't work that way

[@AlekTrev006]

You are 100% correct Fuzz - Monograph drops aren't dependent upon battle-chain levels. They are just the flat % - whatever listed in the wikia // usually it's like 10-15% for a given special item to drop, but Hell-Gate Flame is particularly cruel, at just 5% chance to drop (one of the lowest of all Monograph drops in the game, I believe). which is why it's so hated, and why so many myths have built up about how to get them, over the years ;-)

[@johncantu2616]

What monograph and how do you get it?

[@DarkSchuller]

no they are not but the number of wich you get is! just saying it drops more of them at a time.
