Confused about FF13

[Flamezdudes]

How do you actually use items outside of combat like that cloaking thing and to have bravery etc when you start? It's confusing.

 

[Snarky Username]

You press the button that brings up the item menu and select an item. If you use the cloaking one, enemies don't see you, if you use the offense one or defensive one, you enter your next battle buffed.

 

[MakeLoveNotWar]

You press the button that brings up the item menu and select an item. If you use the cloaking one, enemies don't see you, if you use the offense one or defensive one, you enter your next battle buffed.

Of course, you can just put them all on and completely obliterate everything without any signs of resistance..

Unless you're fighting something, y'know, 'hard'.

Fucking Behemoths the first time I got to Pulse...

In battle? Those things aren't there. And i can't use them outside of battle.

LB on 360...

Probably L1 on PS3.

It's the paradigm button.

They're all called stuff like Aegisol, Deceptisol, etc.

Fucking Behemoths the first time I got to Pulse...

Once they transform into "Tiger-With-Giant-Serrated-Axe", I tended to just reset. Fucking Behemoth's..

Tell me about it! I had to grind for those feckers.

Only things I've found hard so far were Odin the first time and Alexander, both because Hope was with me and I have a negative feeling towards him which manages to make me useless if he's in my team at all. It doesn't matter if he's good or bad, just having him there makes me suck, because I hate him.

 

[Thaius]

Press the left bumper. Or, on the PS3, I imagine it would be L1. Outside of battle. It explained all this in the tutorial, and if you still don't get it, you can look in the menu for the tutorials again. They're all still there.

EDIT: Someone above me said it was R1. But that person also pointed out the data log. If you don't remember the first tutorial, look it up in there.

He's my favourite character, aside from Lightning.

I can't stand Fang, yet she gets the best fucking Eidolon.

Anyway, triple Behemoth is fucking impossible on Pulse.

 

[LightspeedJack]

L1 on PS3.

Ethersol if you're an Eidolon maniac, like me.

I love me some Odin.

DESPISE me some Hecatoncheir.

Ahh okay I haven't fought the triple behemoth battle yet, but I can imagine it would be fucking terrible. Personally, my favourite character is Sazh, then Snow.

I liked Sazh, Snow is down with Fang. Fucking hell, he was such an arrogant bastard.

DESPISE me some Hecatoncheir.

Well, duh. He doesn't heal you. HTC sucks. Shame...he's actually quite powerful.

I prefer to use my TP on Libra and Quake, and low cost skills myself.

Never used Libra. Quake is good but you need to use Libra first, to find out if it's weak to Earth magic.

Alexander is also a really bad Eidolon. The rest are pretty good, Fang's being my personal favourite.

EDIT: The only good thing about Hecatoncheir is he makes Vanille orgasm... What? Don't look at me like that.

Yeah I suppose he is an arrogant bastard, but hey that allows me to relate to him all that much better ^^ Plus he's pretty much the only tall character, and I'm the second tallest person I've met, so I related to him there too.
