Final Fantasy IX Walkthrough Part 70: The Four Shrines [HD]
Divide and conquer (or fall).
Welcome back to another episode of the Let's Play Final Fantasy 9 Walkthrough for the Playstation. In our last episode, our heroes explored Ipsen's Castle and obtained 4 elemental mirrors that hold the key to another world. In today's episode, Zidane drops off 2 party members at the Water, Fire, Wind, and Earth Shrine. His goal? To conquer all 4 spots simultaneously and open the portal to Terra. However, a nasty surprise awaits our heroes once the mirrors are put in place. With only 2 members available, do they stand a chance?
I absolutely loved this episode watching back over it. The music and the pacing is just so spot on and the dialogue is just fantastic. On the gameplay side, Quina has the ability to eat the boss as well and learn the Earth Shake ability, which would be so perfect considering the dialogue. The Earth Guardian can do a number on your team if not careful, so equip items to absorb Earth damage, and other items that help reduce elemental damage as well. The Avenger is a handy weapon that teaches Amarant Demi Shock so try to steal it (if not, you CAN buy it later), and the Rubber Suit is something that must be synthesized in Disc 4 so try and steal it also.
Earth Guardian stats:
HP ~20,000
Weakness: Wind
He's actually weak against Bad Breath if you have it learned with Quina (obtainable in Esto Gaza from the Worm Hydra)
If it wasn't incredibly obvious, doing the voice of Quina makes me laugh so much. Quina is such a clown! Heck, reading the dialogue is the most fun for me. It reminds me so much of popcorn reading back in school. I used to be super flattered when people would call on me every other turn because they liked the way I told the story.
The last episode started a series of about 7 story episodes that I think are just soo good. Don't miss it!
Thank you all so much for tuning in throughout this entire Let's Play! I can't thank you all enough as your comments and your feedback really keep me going.
On a completely separate side note, don't you think the Fire Guardian was dressed super risque? Seriously, it looked like lingerie.
