STAY AWAY FROM THE SUMMONER!!! Lol, I used to speak to that lady over and over just to hear her go "STAY AWA---STAY---ST---STAY AWAY FROM THE SUMMONER!!!"
First time playing through the game i didn't even know about the dark aeons. I was walking towards mushroom rock road and got shredded by the magus sister. I didn't even know they were aeons you could obtain.
The Game Knight she's based on a Catholicism. she based on a painting in the Vatican that shows a naked women with her arms crossed standing waist deep in hellfire.
I only found out about the dark aeons on accident. I was going back through the plains and saw that soldier, so instinct kicked it to talk, then found that dark Ixion and got my @$$ jolted by thundja.
Brian04510 I think maxed out celestial weapons won't be enough, unless you plan to do heavy grinding for stat raising, cause he killed your team as fast as dark Ixion did with me because of their crazy agility.
@Brian04510 a late comment but there are two strategies to survive wakizashi... 1) NON BHPL STRAT: You need auto-protect on your gear. After that either auto potion(Sell all regular potions and have 99 x potions only in your inventory) and manually revive, or auto phoenix (manually heal). On top of that you need you need firstrike on a weapon. You can use Auron's celestial weapon or customize your own weapon. At the start of battle instead of him ambushing you instead you will get the first turn. At this point you can switch to Rikku and have her cast HyperNullAll. This gives cheer x5 to reduce wakizashi under 9999hp. Or you can use Hyper Mighty G like in this video which will give everyone auto life (free raise). If your rikku isnt levelled up you will have to switch to aeons everytime yojimbo gets a turn which takes even longer (they will die but them dying isnt a game over so you get to avoid all his attacks basically). This strat is harder and equires more setup in battle as you can see but less time to prepare. Look at 35:30 to see how close you can come to dying if not properly concentrating. His auto phoenix raises rikku then he uses a healing water to give everyone 9999 hp again. 2) BHPL STRAT: (BHPL+Ribbon+Auto Regen+Auto Haste). With 99,999 hp you can simply let him ambush you and then take the 20k+ wakizashi. Its impossible for him to kill you because regen will keep you alive. If you want to be overkill you can cast protect but its not needed at all. It takes 45 seconds to beat him without protect and you can just spam x while watching netflix. This is by far the best strat to farm him later for dark matters however getting the hp spheres takes a fair bit longer. The only other way to farm dark matter is by beating all the dark aeons and farming penances arms. For both strategies youre gonna need high luck otherwise you will miss dark yojombo every turn. Some choose to cast aim and luck 5 times. You also need to dispel armour break as well but heres the thing when you dispel armour break it will remove all the cheer bonuses from HyperNulAll. Dying also removes all cheers. In this video he doesnt dispel it and just lets them die and relies om auto phoenix.
I also found dark aeons by accident when I was a kid... I defeated Yunalesca then went back to the place where I fought her to see if I could sacrifice khimari to receive the ultimate Aeon XD. Then the dark Bahamut shows up and I was like oh, this must be a trial, if I can beat him I might be able to get ultimate Aeon then I saw Bahamut doing max damage and one shot me lol. After that I just went around the world to look for more dark aeons with my buddy yojimbo.
It is because they want to repeat the pilgrimage and the return of sin. Spira is full of death. So destroying Sin will only hurt the temples and the truth. The temples and U Yevon are the reason it keeps coming back.
@@yanglee3893 Pretty sure it was a joke, but it is always nice for super bosses to have a sensical reason to not just show up and one shot the final boss of the story.
If the "right" way means boring grinding of days or even weeks then no thank you. It's a game, if there are multiple ways to solve a problem you should always go for the one that is the most fun for you. Everything else kind of beats the point of playing a game in the first place, does it not?
I remember my friend telling me about how to get Anima by opening all the secret chests(ps2 version) in the cloister of trials... So I went back to macalania temple to do the cloister trials and then I met dark shiva... Good memories... It’s been 16 years and I still remember every part of this game
i remember i ran into dark shiva by accident my god xD i never understood how to beat them. but after replaying the game multiple times i finally beat them all :D
Rosa P. I need major training lol I've not even gotten their best weapons or all the aeons yet.. bumped into valevore and died lol though last time I bumped into the magus sisters and instant died XD
It takes a while, but the omega ruins or inside sin are amazing places to grind. Especially with weapons that have double or triple AP. The frustrating part is finding attribute spheres to fill empty slots on the sphere grid
Mega Bondagemon I’m having flashback to serge & Lynx (panther) from radical dreamers/Chrono Cross (Yes FFX was the idea cross presented that wasn’t the main idea of a plot but was a random thought outside the plot).
Yep. 😂😂 dark valefor, the first time I played the remaster and had no clue about the dark aeons "I'm just gonna go back to besaid for the jecht sphere....aaaaannnnnddddd game over...."
MarvelGirlXVII Clearly a cheap move, but not going to lie, it worked to great effect. Shows they’ve gained trust in Tidus and turned tables with the irony to Yevon.
@@ShMartinJo dark Aeons and penance were just a cheap afterthought. Add one or two 0s to every stat and hp and call it a challenge. I love the game, and did everything there is to be done; but they are what they are.
@@claretheworm Honestly Tidus's celestial weapon is more down to luck than skill, luck you get the right seed of balloons and luck that the birds target ole girl instead of you xD. I agree it is infuriating though.
I grew up with the PS2 version, no dark aeons. Downloaded the HD one, didn’t know about these guys and saw the dude in the thunder plains. He looked out of place so I talked to him. Dark Ixion showed up and I was already super strong so I thought I’d just smack him around but I died in a couple turns. Was such a shock lol. That little summoner kid is really unsettling.
My group always Yuna+Wakka+Tidus. Yuna can tank the dark aeons overdrive with her aeons plus Anima and Magus Sisters can inflict a lot of damage. But the key is Wakka overdrive.
If you really did his without any cheats aside from game guides then you rock kid! I love this game and also felt the need to grind especially when I found out about the celestial weapons and dark aeons, my most played run on this went over 150h and there were still things to beat that I never had the chance to finish.
+john lowe i know, but it takes time, all FF games I ever played had at least one saved game with 100+ hours of gameplay because at some point I would commit myself to beat all the extras.
Might be a few years late, but I wanna share a short story. So I just got the remastered version of this on the ps4 for fun about a week ago. I remembered hearing about the dark aeons, but back whenever they were only on the japanese version of the game so I never gave them much thought. Yesterday I went back to Besaid to get something for Valefor, only to be fucking sacked by it's dark equivilant. "Oh right, those are a thing aren't they.... fuck"
If Aeons are the dreams of people, then the Dark Aeons would be the nightmares. And as everyone knows, nightmares are always more prominent in one's minds that they're dreams.
Kid Summoner shows up. Yuna: awwwww...he's so cute. KS: I'll show you cute!! *battle theme commences* Lesson of the day: "Stay away from the summoner!"
Understand that I'm not someone who's fought all of the Dark Aeons, but if I did and even after just seeing videos like this, I think it would've been interesting to have them not immediately use their Overdrives the next turn. It'd be interesting to see them randomise when they'd use them, mix it up and keep you on edge. Granted I realise that it wouldn't make _much_ of a difference, but still...
Back to so many years ago. I don't know how to get those limit breaking weapons. I beat them all with Yojimbo's one shot attack. Excepts Dark Yojimbo since you have to beat him 3 or 4 times altogether.
The celestial weapons are great. Getting the items to fully power some of them however.....😑 to get the sigil for Lulu's, you have to dodge 200 consecutive lightning bolts on the thunder plains. Actually much easier after I just discovered the crater trick. To get the sigil for Tidus.....the stupid chocobo race.....I actually JUST did that for the 2nd time ever a couple days ago
@@frozenfusion6072 f*ck that chocobo race.....I JUST got his sigil on my ps3 remaster the other day. I'm never EVER doing that ever again. Same with the lightning bolts. 😂😂 if I somehow lose my big save file on my ps3....then RIP.
You’ve reached 800 by me the last subscriber for you , your channel is awesome one , For the game (( i’ve to face dark Bahamut , dark Anima , dark Yujimbo & dark Magus sisters :)٠
I think what people didn't get about this game. Which I'm sure kinda makes more sense now is. This was one of their first attempts at making a kinda open world gameplay. Both X and X2 storylines were very easy to beat, but their side dungeons and sidequests were a lot harder. So in short you didn't have to play the storyline to get the most out of the game. But I guess only the completionists figure that out. {Seeing as non completionists just don't have patience or time to give a damn}
Alex DIO Well actually FFxiii is less linear. The Calm Lands is the only non linearish part of ffx but it's just a wide optional area. In FFXIII when Barth is defeated, you enter the Archlyte Steppe which is just a bigger calm lands but it at least has some non linear design. Then the final chapter comes and linearity returns. FFX is a completely linear path. Also they are not the only non linear FF games, most off the FF series is linear X and XIII just dont even try to hide it, they are the worst offenders of it.
LuigiaTV well i think ffxiii is more linear because most of the game is all ff that i played only the beginning is linear, it is more to present the main character then you can interact with the world (for me this is open world) ffx you can come back to the places, but to get control to go wherever you want takes time and in ffxii takes the eternity and there is not much to do besides hunts
And Linearity isn't such a bad thing considering 15 is heavily open world with not a lot in it. at least 13 could keep your eyes distracted with its environments which had more going on in them than most final fantasy games. Sure less interaction with the world but honestly final fantasy npcs are a snore to talk to anyway.
I heard a rumor abounding saying Yojimbo's Zanmato attack can instantly kill anything in the game (aside from the optional underwater battle with Shinryu). I would use Yojimbo to tackle the toughest opponents including these Dark Aeons (are all defeated): Valefor, Ifirt, Shiva, Bahamut, and Anima. Here are the ones that remain undefeated: Ixion, Yojimbo, and the Magus Sisters (x3).
My first encounter with dark Aeons was Dark Shiva. I was like 13 at that time and I would beliv'eve that no one would ever be capable of tanking those first triple hit from shiva that would wipe your team
In my first playthrough on my old PS2 i had no internet to check a guide, less any idea how to do a powerful and proper build. So i take some of them whit the yojimbo insta kill, i spent a ton of gil on that Crusade.
Nähwichtel Nähen nope you can't count on zanmato. My experience is, i beat all of the dark aeons using zanmato, except for the dark yojimbo (since you have to fight him 5 times and when i play it in ps2 english version, you can't save the game in between... meaning you have to kill dark yojimbo 5 times before you can save). And, the reason why you cant count on zanmato is because not every fight your yojimbo will unleash that attack. Back then, I already googled ways to make your yojimbo use zanmato on 100%, but not a single guide proven right. And back then, my characters were so underlevel, the celestial weapons are useless... my hp can't exceed 9999. So i finally gave up before i could fight penance because i cant even beat dark yojimbo...
Is hyper mighty g a new overdrive for HD? I don't remember it from the original, only super mighty g which was two of the curtains mixed I think? It's crazy that hyper mighty g casts autolife on the whole party wow
I never found the dark aeons and finished the main story without the best weapons, I tried to find all the side content on my own and didn't find anything. Plus I think I had half or less than half of Yuna's summons, I'm surprised the magus sisters made a return after FF4. They weren't too difficult so long as you can keep them silenced, cause they could res each other which was annoying. Though for me it was always the little bee girl and sometimes the lady bug, once I saw the tall one res. In general it was a kill them asap fight. What was that boss at the end?
Yeah, around 140 luck you'll be crit'ing most of the time. However, if you're playing the expert grid, you'll need to sacrifice some of the Accuracy nodes to have 230 luck in order to always hit and crit the Magus Sisters.
Err aside from one of the Jecht's sphere, is there anything else that I will miss out if I avoid the dark aeons? I don't think I will have the time (or patience) to grind that much but I do want to try and complete the game as much as possible without having to fight any of them.
Kind of shitty when bosses can 1hko your characters regardless of how buffed up and prepared you are in your defenses. If you don't have auto-life and/or auto Phoenix, you basically have no chance since every turn you'd just be reviving
FYI to beat the dark aeons stats required are: Hp: 100k (10k) with (BHPL, Ribbon, *A-Phoenix*, A-Haste) + A-shell / A-protect or A-regen (Penance) Mp: 1k Str: 255 Def: 255 Mag: 150 (ok but not needed besides Lulu's OD/Yuna's aeons using spells) Mdef: 255 Agil: 170 min. (Magis sisters) Eva: 35 min but 150 (best) Acc: [0] Luck: 255 (or 255 acc. & 255 evade with luck 35 min. OR 85 to be effective) Penance (use max #, not min.) -> Auto- (haste, protect, potion,) + def +20% OR

I love how Dark Yojimbo's summoner after being beaten multiple times is lowkey is just like: "Aight, Imma head out now."
I imagine the first few who played the game without the guide were utterly surprised when they ran into dark yojimbo. Probably unprepared too.
First time playing through the game i didn't even know about the dark aeons. I was walking towards mushroom rock road and got shredded by the magus sister. I didn't even know they were aeons you could obtain.
my first was dark valefor then got murdered by the Magus Sisters lol

Love how he sounds with Attack Reels, really like like Hinata's protective 64 palms
Dark Bahamut: Stop that! STOP NOT DYING!!!
I appreciate that reference. Well done.
10/10
No commentary. Finally - something not shit.
I’m not gonna lie Ryan you’re kinda cute
Back to so many years ago. I don't know how to get those limit breaking weapons.
I beat them all with Yojimbo's one shot attack. Excepts Dark Yojimbo since you have to beat him 3 or 4 times altogether.
XuseFans they've got guides on how to get them on CZcams. I feel like Tidus' weapon itself is the easiest to get but it's sigil is a different story.
Try 5 times to beat Dark Yojimbo.
The celestial weapons are great. Getting the items to fully power some of them however.....😑 to get the sigil for Lulu's, you have to dodge 200 consecutive lightning bolts on the thunder plains. Actually much easier after I just discovered the crater trick.
To get the sigil for Tidus.....the stupid chocobo race.....I actually JUST did that for the 2nd time ever a couple days ago
@@frozenfusion6072 f*ck that chocobo race.....I JUST got his sigil on my ps3 remaster the other day. I'm never EVER doing that ever again. Same with the lightning bolts. 😂😂 if I somehow lose my big save file on my ps3....then RIP.
FUARK i clicked this video by accident and then I hear the music and i start crying
they pop it off with slice and dice one of the best overdrives to me
Yuna should have summoned Dark Aeons in Dead Fantasy.
I forgot to grab the Sun crest ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Poor soul 😂 good luck with Dark Bahamut!
RIP
Same. Almost ready to fight Bahamut after an intense grind for ribbon, armor, spheres, 255 luck, etc
You’ve reached 800 by me the last subscriber for you , your channel is awesome one , For the game (( i’ve to face dark Bahamut , dark Anima , dark Yujimbo & dark Magus sisters :)٠
That Guado in front of Macalania Temple used to scare the shit out of me as a kid
I think what people didn't get about this game. Which I'm sure kinda makes more sense now is. This was one of their first attempts at making a kinda open world gameplay. Both X and X2 storylines were very easy to beat, but their side dungeons and sidequests were a lot harder. So in short you didn't have to play the storyline to get the most out of the game. But I guess only the completionists figure that out. {Seeing as non completionists just don't have patience or time to give a damn}
Minkyo Does Japan xenoblade is way better
first open world? ffx and ffxiii are the only that are linears (ffxiii more than ffx)
Alex DIO Well actually FFxiii is less linear. The Calm Lands is the only non linearish part of ffx but it's just a wide optional area. In FFXIII when Barth is defeated, you enter the Archlyte Steppe which is just a bigger calm lands but it at least has some non linear design. Then the final chapter comes and linearity returns. FFX is a completely linear path. Also they are not the only non linear FF games, most off the FF series is linear X and XIII just dont even try to hide it, they are the worst offenders of it.
LuigiaTV well i think ffxiii is more linear because most of the game is
all ff that i played only the beginning is linear, it is more to present the main character
then you can interact with the world (for me this is open world)
ffx you can come back to the places, but to get control to go wherever you want takes time and in ffxii takes the eternity and there is not much to do besides hunts
And Linearity isn't such a bad thing considering 15 is heavily open world with not a lot in it. at least 13 could keep your eyes distracted with its environments which had more going on in them than most final fantasy games. Sure less interaction with the world but honestly final fantasy npcs are a snore to talk to anyway.
perfectly balanced ....as all things should be, wakka
I had no idea the dark aeons even existed well looks like a good reason to buy the remastered edition for the switch or PS4 though
Sensacional, melhor final fantasy
by accident i found a dark bahamut, i was like "whaat?" then i reminded that i have Yojimbo... zanmato and that was over x d
It's been a while, but I remember Lulu doing most of the killing and everyone else in the party just kept her and themselves alive.
I heard a rumor abounding saying Yojimbo's Zanmato attack can instantly kill anything in the game (aside from the optional underwater battle with Shinryu). I would use Yojimbo to tackle the toughest opponents including these Dark Aeons (are all defeated): Valefor, Ifirt, Shiva, Bahamut, and Anima. Here are the ones that remain undefeated: Ixion, Yojimbo, and the Magus Sisters (x3).
I killed Yojimbo with five zanmatos in a row. that took me eff ing ages
42:58 Damn it, not again...Best Expression ever.
My first encounter with dark Aeons was Dark Shiva.
I was like 13 at that time and I would beliv'eve that no one would ever be capable of tanking those first triple hit from shiva that would wipe your team
In my first playthrough on my old PS2 i had no internet to check a guide, less any idea how to do a powerful and proper build. So i take some of them whit the yojimbo insta kill, i spent a ton of gil on that Crusade.
Bahamut is the best Dark Aeon ever!
These dark aeons are OP AF!! How the hell are you supposed to do this without max stats 😲!?
Kumbi yojimbo lol
There are many ways, but all of them need some form of high stats to beat, be it through aeons or characters
czcams.com/video/-V4TGR81obQ/video.html
Nähwichtel Nähen nope you can't count on zanmato. My experience is, i beat all of the dark aeons using zanmato, except for the dark yojimbo (since you have to fight him 5 times and when i play it in ps2 english version, you can't save the game in between... meaning you have to kill dark yojimbo 5 times before you can save). And, the reason why you cant count on zanmato is because not every fight your yojimbo will unleash that attack. Back then, I already googled ways to make your yojimbo use zanmato on 100%, but not a single guide proven right. And back then, my characters were so underlevel, the celestial weapons are useless... my hp can't exceed 9999. So i finally gave up before i could fight penance because i cant even beat dark yojimbo...
@@matthewalbertho8126 u can train zanmanto to be higher chance, but having 9999 health, and s9me good equipment and stats is enough for the battle,
How did u get all those fancy ribbons/ auto revive/ auto haste before killing dark aeons?
And a tips for you: If you press the R and L 1 and 2 buttons, you can shift through the menus much quicker.
Is that why you’re a time shifter?
Does Dark Bahamut, and all those use some kinda overpowered counterattack if you'd use your overdrive on them?
Is hyper mighty g a new overdrive for HD? I don't remember it from the original, only super mighty g which was two of the curtains mixed I think? It's crazy that hyper mighty g casts autolife on the whole party wow
Poor Auron, gets picked on during the sister fight
I always wondered what Rikku was mixing up there, then I read up on hyper mighty g and realised it was keeping you alive the whole time.
I’d love another final fantasy X part 3
I never found the dark aeons and finished the main story without the best weapons, I tried to find all the side content on my own and didn't find anything. Plus I think I had half or less than half of Yuna's summons, I'm surprised the magus sisters made a return after FF4. They weren't too difficult so long as you can keep them silenced, cause they could res each other which was annoying. Though for me it was always the little bee girl and sometimes the lady bug, once I saw the tall one res. In general it was a kill them asap fight. What was that boss at the end?
Mannn you got me all emotional how I miss that game, Tuna and Tidius one of the best ff couple ever
Yuna*
@@destroyermcw626 nope she's tuna now lol
TUNA lmao
Tuna > Yuna
quick attacks for days!, jesus wakka has a 100% chance to crit damn haha
Ye he has the highest accuracy out of everyone in the party so naturally he eternally crits
Yeah, around 140 luck you'll be crit'ing most of the time. However, if you're playing the expert grid, you'll need to sacrifice some of the Accuracy nodes to have 230 luck in order to always hit and crit the Magus Sisters.
hohohoho First Aeon overkill :D
Next time, fight the dark aeons on a Aeon vs Aeon basis!
It's dope how ixions horn is bloodsoaked
Err aside from one of the Jecht's sphere, is there anything else that I will miss out if I avoid the dark aeons? I don't think I will have the time (or patience) to grind that much but I do want to try and complete the game as much as possible without having to fight any of them.
they drop ribbon items
You will miss Penance, the super boss
Kind of shitty when bosses can 1hko your characters regardless of how buffed up and prepared you are in your defenses. If you don't have auto-life and/or auto Phoenix, you basically have no chance since every turn you'd just be reviving
FYI to beat the dark aeons stats required are:
Hp: 100k (10k) with (BHPL, Ribbon, *A-Phoenix*, A-Haste) + A-shell / A-protect or A-regen (Penance)
Mp: 1k
Str: 255
Def: 255
Mag: 150 (ok but not needed besides Lulu's OD/Yuna's aeons using spells)
Mdef: 255
Agil: 170 min. (Magis sisters)
Eva: 35 min but 150 (best)
Acc: [0]
Luck: 255 (or 255 acc. & 255 evade with luck 35 min. OR 85 to be effective)
Penance (use max #, not min.) -> Auto- (haste, protect, potion,) + def +20% OR
Yo, where can we get the art for the thumbnail? That's awesome
god damn it I LOVE these expert battles =0 u guys are fucking amazing to watch!!!!
Yeah
I luv the delta attack
