Firstly, where can I find a Tonberry?
Secondly, how do I beat Penance? (WITHOUT ZANMATO)
Thirdly, why can't I get Magic to do over 9,999 Damage, even with Break Damage Limit?
Any help would be very welcome, particularly for the secon one.

O.K, but there are limits. When you've played all the others and you come to a game like that, you don't expect to have to think and therefore, walk around for HOURS AND HOURS CONSTANTLY, but getting absolutely nowhere. I think I would like it better if help was available, but not compulsory to take.

Welcome to the age of when games didn't lead you by the hand to the end and actually required you to think for yourself.

Are you sure? I remember you needed to take a sphere up with you to get a treasure, and it was something like a Trident for Kilmahri, but when you open the chest that you're forced to open, you get the tell tale puff of smoke and glyph that suggests its the special sphere. I'm assuming they made it that way since its the only temple you can't go back to and it would be a bit unfair if you miss the treasure.

The guy at the end of FF9 was TOUGH I remember, I had all my party killed and was left with Zidane on Auto-Haste and was bezerked. I had to just set my joypad down and hope he won! Luckily, he did...
Personal fav. is 6 :)
