1. Haven't tried.
2. Haven't tried.
3. Haven't tried.
4. Haven't tried.
5. Was able to get second in Pheta, Lamdba, and Sigma but having trouble getting first in all three. Enjoys dancing to the victory music after you beat a time in the Grunty race. XD
6. Completed.

Collected 999 million GP?
- Nope.
Collected 99 of every item?
- Nope.
Have all weapons?
- Yes.
Completed the item list event?
- Not yet.
Won a grunty race?
- Got first place in all towns.
Completed some/all of the Ryu books?
- All are complete. (I think?) I don't feel like checking.

-Edit-
I've completed the last dungeon as well. On my first try too. I actually did it once with Balmung/Elk then another time with Helba/Elk. Of course Helba just makes everything easier.

- no, not really much point.
Collected 99 of every item.
- ditto.
Have all weapons.
- the only weapons i keep are the rares, and a weapon for Kite that has sleep and paralyze skills.
Completed the item list.
- got to about 350, then got bored. The rewards aren't enough.
Won a grunty race.
- came 1st, 2nd and 3rd 3 times on all servers. Those silver and gold grunties are must haves.
Completed the Ryu books.
- yup, all done.

Thanks to those grunties, my L99 Kite has more than 2600hp, and around 650sp. He officially pwns.

"Collected 999 million GP?" - Nope.
"Collected 99 of every item?" - Nope.
"Have all weapons?" - Nope. I thought of getting the strongest equipment possible for all my teammates, but it wasn't really worth it after beating the game.
"Completed the item list event?" - Yep, took me two weeks.
"Won a grunty race? >.<" - Won 1st in all root towns, and almost always got 2nd.
"Completed some/all of the Ryu books?" - Yep, completed every Ryu book.

And I did the final dungeon on my first try; by the end, I had very little data infection, twas almost at 0%.

Basically, you just gotta find the shortest route possible, and then shorten down the time until you get it. Usually, it's best to take the route that has the least amount of turns. If you're desperate, you can go to GameFaqs and look up some strategies there.

That dungeon wasn't very hard, just scary. I never hit red, though. Only needed Natsume, as always.

As for that list...

- I've maxed out GP to 9999999, but I haven't gotten 1 billion worth of stuff even with a Quarantine file nearing 500 hours.
- No. There's no point.
- See above.
- No. The special wallpaper is right about anyone who finishes this quest.
- All Golden and Silver Grunties collected. That's as far as I went.
- I can't recall, I want to say all but we'll say some.

It was never so much about completing a bunch of quests as it was mastering combat to the point that only things like Phases had a chance in hell against me, and that my resources be close to never-ending. In those respects, I think I did fairly well.

ughh...the thought of completing that final dungeon scare the **** out of me :shock:
If you beat that, you do see Mia, and of course get the ending credits. That's the true ending.

Maybe if I ummm was 3l33t enuf i'd go for it. :P Someday. you have my respect Zer0

As for the others:
1. No
2. Yes, a few times
3. Only v1 & v2 so far
4. No
5. Yes
6. All !

btw, for anyone wanting the true ending send me a PM. Unless i can post it here ;)

Mia's dungeon wasn't that hard. I beat it the first time w/ Elk/Sora. Sora's Last Betrayal weapon just slaughters everything and as long as Elk keeps healing everyone, it's no sweat.

But the Mu Guardian data bug/Armor General monster partys are evil, evil, evil! :twisted:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you need to bring Elk to that dungeon?
As for weapons, I always used Two Together.

[quote="Zer0"] I just beat that 15 or so level dungeon after you beat QUARENTINE, where you get to see Mia reborn. I had to get myself to level 99 just to do it, which was a pain in the ass. Having Helba was the only way I could even do it -_- Since it took me a very long time to do this part of the game, I was wondering: How many other people have completed this part of the quest too?

I beat the dungeon using elk (of course) and orca. It was a pain keeping orca alive (he was around level 65-70), but I gave him all of the level 99 equipment you can trade from tsukasa, so he survived for a while. I only used orca because you go through all of the troubble to get him, and the only story place you go with him is bursting passed over aquafield. I was fun though... it's been a while since i've played the originals...

Hmm... I beat that dungion on the second try with Blackrose and Elk (Lvs somewere around 95). It was interesting.
I beat all the grunty races (and got 3 silver and gold grunties from each).
Didn't do the rest.
