Most people haven't realized that this process can be optimized, making each run considerably faster. - You don't need to interact with a save crystal for it to work. In fact, saving through a crystal is extremely counter-productive and slows your runs. - Gambits don't have to be deactivated. Just hold R2 to enter escape mode until you're facing the chest. Open it and kill those rats quickly. Also, there is absolutely no reason why Fast Mode shouldn't be used at all times doing this. - Most importantly, you don't have to die on Trial #2. Just press Options to quit the game. The easiest way to do this is to just go to a shop in Rabanastre with a door, like the Magick shop for example, because the game always auto-saves when you zone in or out of it. A shop is also convenient because you can sell your armlets there. 1. Enter the shop. The game auto-saves. 2. Press Options, quit the game and go back to the Main Menu. 3. Go into Trial Mode and load the Auto-save. 4. Grab the diamond armlet. Kill all rats to finish the Trial. The game auto-saves while loading Trial #2. 5. When in Trial #2, press Options and quit the game. 6. Load Game with the Auto-save. Repeat this process zoning in and out of the shop to trigger auto-save, using 4x Fast Mode at all times and you'll be getting one Diamond Armlet and 25LP per minute, if not faster. I bought all monographs but the Hunter's within twenty minutes.

On the PC version, this method would make you die way quicker, since your HP is exactly the same as the HP you have when you have cleared a stage. So if you die on stage 8 for example, as you got in there with 20hp, the next time to go into the trial mode with this method, without touching a save crystal, or healing up and saving before hand, you will have 20hp. So will require to get those heals and save.

Excellent video. I just got the game a few hours ago and would like to take advantage of Trial Mode. I got Vaan up to level 3 and can clear the first trial well enough, but the second one with the dogs always kills me. Should I grind in the story a bit more and then come back and do this? Also how did you get the spear and the Firefly accessory? Not sure if you mentioned those in the vid and I wasn't paying attention.
@LemonEatingKow7 жыл бұрын
The spear was from choosing the Uhlan class and then buying it from a store. The firefly can be picked up but I forget where. It isn't of much use. The first trial is where all your gil is going to come from. And still gives you about 10 LP a clear so it is quite good. You can come back to it at any point in the game, so maybe play the story a little.
