Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age - How to get all 28 Pinewood Chops

[@slickrick1042]

If for some reason you are confused you have to speak to the people FIRST in order to get their name like you see in the video to appear! Easiest way to follow the video is to just look at their clothes and try to find that person because in some cases the names are different until you speak to them. Also not every person is in the same place as you see in the video. These NPC’s do wander the section but rest assured they are ALL there. Every single person he speaks to in the video is in that section. They may have a different name until you speak to them but they are ALL in that particular section. This is a very good walkthrough. The only differences are he may have spoken to the people already off video first which may cause some confusion.

You my friend just earned a sub. I usually follow a reading walk through of the game but this and parts like this I always watch your videos. Thanks man and keep up the work!!

[@bigmac408]

This mini quest hurt my brain more than playing on 4x speed

[@hamzarylan7895]

Pro tip : watch movies on flixzone. Been using it for watching loads of movies during the lockdown.

[@jorgekane2842]

@Hamza Rylan Yea, I have been watching on flixzone} for months myself =)

[@NightFoxx99]

Video needs time stamps for each of the 28.

[@bogeyboi]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This was the most frustrating and tedious side mission of the entire game.

[@cyrus9715]

This video gets me through every replay of FF12

[@MarkusArkus5]

Thanks for not running through it in 4x speed like most ZA tutorials. This was super helpful and straightforward!

[@NesanikaMV]

2019 and finally trying to finish this..

[@enobnala90]

Thank you for this guide! I hate this side task

[@danielmeredith4222]

Thankyou so much for all the help :) you most certainly made it more easier and fun to do cheers

[@manbeard8678]

You are a life savior.

[@twilightprincess7425]

Got all the way up to "talented woman/akademician" and the ques to find the other person didn't appear. So i skipped them and went to next person and nothing as well.... :(

[@jaye5716]

Holy shit, i'm on my first run and was loving this game to DEATH but this fucking arcadia run around quest is QUICKLY making me just one and done this game forever..

[@Walamonga1313]

Lol loving it? Pretty much the entire game felt as lame as this quest. After 10 hours of tedium, it gets good for 10 then it goes keeps falling until it's back to snoozefest

[@richardbrunestudy5464]

Thanks man. This helps me a lot

[@lnbanzon]

Thank you for your hard work!

[@luthfikarim4965]

Many thanks ... Been spent hours asking the npc 😅

[@ph2kev]

i have the chops but still cant use the cab to get to the next point of the game ???yes i spoken to the chopmaster and everything still cant progress on ... just keep saying i need 3 pine chops anyone else having this issue?

[@AstonishingRed]

Ugh this game out of any game in the entire franchise forces you to do the most tedious things in order to progress. The info gathering sections are so boring. Anytime Jules came around I cringed on the inside because I knew that meant talking to a bunch of NPCs.

[@Walamonga1313]

This game is incredibly boring at times like these. Coupled with the dull combat you end up with a tedious piece of media rather than a fun game.

[@Mrlongname]

Thanks for making my life easier

[@MarvinCEMarse]

Thanks, dood. That was wonderful!

[@Underbuffed]

thx

[@deltarek1534]

Thank you so much bro

[@rafaelhenrique2757]

Good Man , thanks 🎉😊

[@drDEVILOCK]

Thanks so much my friend it was very helpfull

[@Thunder_Light207]

Lovely guide thank you 👍 Can't find a few of them like failed star just nowhere, even searched inside shops 🤔 Horrible minigame 👎

[@ollomont830]

cancer wasn't invented until they made this quest

[@Diassad]

Thank you!

[@Underbuffed]

You're welcome!

[@seth65dex]

Nice but why do you make us notable to see the map?

[@eteretano2345]

How to get the last chop? I have 27. I'm playing IZJS not Zodiac Age. Quest change?

[@jarrettath9636]

Thanks so much!

[@BoBThEHippiE]

Very helpful i hate this part thanks a bunch

[@One.Zero.One101]

This quest really halted the momentum for me. I finally got 3 Leo Gems and I couldn't wait to get to Zertinian Caves to get the niho. And then this roadblock just came up in front of me.

[@terrencelee4502]

Great guide

[@veretxnerd983]

28 stab wounds you didn't want to leave me a chance huh I was bleeding begging you for mercy but u stabbed me again and again and again

[@rogersilva1060]

Ajudou muito esse guia, muito obrigado!

[@metalxmulisha3493]

Thanks man

[@aleemalqatari9834]

Thank you was great

[@kawasakikrr150]

geez its a random for sure ... my current location cab, there is no senior reseacher :(

[@slickrick1042]

Yes there is. You have to speak to the people first to get their title to appear. He must have already done this off video first. It does make it confusing because people are searching for the names of the people he speaks to in the video but their name doesn’t show up until you speak to them already.

[@MageQuentin]

10:40 it's Poor Wife

[@hutchservesgaming]

thank you sir! just did this while eating lunch =D wasted no time at all =D

[@Underbuffed]

glad I could help

[@ethanthornhill7282]

Is there a bonus to getting all chops or is this a waste of time?

[@Underbuffed]

You need it for a quest later

[@Dr_Diaz]

I did every single one of them and only collected 25?

[@YouTubeShorts-pb6ww]

You must have missed 3 then

[@Joe_334]

It was gruesome. In the original, it was required to get nine of them.

[@abrahamdejesus1321]

Its still only nine for the plot. The 28 is for the cockactrice sidequest

[@Rteezy2012]

Thank you, good sir!

[@Underbuffed]

Glad I could help

[@verdantsoul2131]

This helps, but you know you can buy from the chopmaster for 20,000 gil each.

[@eteretano2345]

Where is the chop Master?

[@calebhughes5767]

Whats an "a their"

[@jeffferreira1321]

FFXII had so many parts that are just a complete waste of time.

[@Walamonga1313]

Like 80% of your playtime is wasted time. Bigger than needed dungeons, lame fetch sidequests, so much running around (even with teleporting crystals). I'm so glad 2x and 4x speed options exist, otherwise I would never finish it

[@YouTubeShorts-pb6ww]

@@Walamonga1313 geez is this your first ff game

[@keaten52]

Idk if this makes me weird but this was by far my favorite quest

[@luisfff]

Thank you

[@reinaldoborges4456]

thanks

[@aaronkemp7789]

Thanks for posting this. I hated it. What a dumb mission.

[@leonardosampaio8976]

Man.... there are really boring and useless quests in this game. i played this game for the first time in 2006 i guess, i loved it for the gameplay, but i couldn't understand shit because english is not my first language so at some point i stopped playing it because i didnt know what to do, but now i am fluent in english because i got sick of not understanding some old games i wanted to play and after all these years when i finally got to play this game again on the ps4 i just realized i would never beat that game back then when i was a kid, it is impossible to know what to do if you dont understand the story or talk to NPCs

[@rafaellmiguell6772]

Me ajudou muito,obrigado.

[@KC-dg9pu]

wtf this was a thing? im guessing theres no going back to it if u missed it in the story?

[@douglasmaia4248]

Somente 3 já bastam

[@jefferythibodeaux5573]

This is honestly the most annoying section of the game

[@marakasayori8146]

Cooooooooool

[@CostelloPlays]

😃

[@NickSayzRawrz]

Thank you!!

[@cruelangel_94]

Great guide.
