INDEX
Finally, the Extras chapter offers a round-up of features
not covered elsewhere, such as a recap of side-quests, a checklist for
Achievements and Trophies, and additional secrets. For this reason, we
strongly advise that players avoid this section of the guide until they
have completed their first playthrough.
EXTRAS
This huge chapter is the heart of the guide, offering
a considered blend of step-by-step guidance with in-depth advice and
analysis. For those who wish to complete a first playthrough with a
bare minimum of assistance, it can be used sparingly to find quick-fix
solutions for tough battles, character development advice, and valuable
tips on new gameplay features whenever they are introduced. Equally,
though, it’s also perfect for those who wish to plot the most optimal
route through this huge adventure.
From stock assailants to fearsome bosses, unusual
opponents to extremely rare monsters, the Bestiary chapter offers a
phenomenally detailed account of all enemies in Final Fantasy XIII.
Need advance warning of a particular enemy’s principle weakness,
or the probability of obtaining a coveted component from a specific
opponent? Such information, and much more, can be found in this
authoritative reference section.
WALKTHROUGH BESTiARY
Designed primarily with later playthroughs in mind
(but also doubtlessly a great temptation for those who seek firsttime
perfection), the Strategy & Analysis chapter exposes the hidden
mechanics that drive Final Fantasy XIII. From practical advice (such
as advanced battle tactics and character growth) to fascinating trivia,
it combines expert advice with a wide variety of insights into how
assorted gameplay systems actually work. Be warned: unless directed
to visit sections of this chapter by page references in the Walkthrough,
you may find that it reveals more than you care to know during your first
run through the story.
