The newest version of this FAQ can be found at http://www.gamefaqs.com
The story starts in "mist continent" in a world called Gaia. There are four nations
in this continent, such as Alexandria, and Lindbulm. Alexandria, whose king has already
been dead, is now ruled by Queen Brahne. On one occasion regent Cid of Lindbulm noticed
Queen Brahne's strange change. He was deeply anxious of this neighbour nation and
asked Tantalus, a group of bandit, to kidnap Princess Garnet of Alexandria.Tantalus,of
which Zidane is one of the member, is officially a group of theatrical company, and
makes
it a rule to perform a play on a stage of a huge flying airship, Prima Vista, in
Alexandria.
Now the playday comes, and Zidane is going to kidnap the princess during the play.
Strangely enough, the princess herself asks Zidane to kidnap her! The angry Queen
attacks
the airship and it falls to the Evil Forest with Vivi, who happened to plunge himself
into
the play, and Steiner, who is the bodyguard of Princess Garnet, on it.
The official name of Card game in FF9 is called "Tetra Master".Tetra
master players never back down from a challange.To challange people,
walk up to them,and press "Square" button.Okay,here are some basic
rules.
Tetra Master rules :
1.Select 5 cards in your possesion to play.
2.If the arrow on your card points to your opponent's card,you'll win
his/her card.
3.If the arrow on your cards faces the arrow on your opponent's card,a
card battle will begins.
4.If you card wins the battle,you win opponent's card,if your card
lose the card battle,the opponent's wins your card.
5.If you have to battle 2 or more cards,you can choose opponent's card
that you want to battle.
6.The game ends once all the cards are played,and the players with
the most card is the winner.The winner gets to take the loser's
card(s).
CARD GAME FAQ
=============
You'll need at least 5 cards to play the card game.Approach someone and
press square to play the game.
Q:How does the card game proceed ?
A:You take turns placing your cards on a 4x4 grid with your opponents.
Sometimes,your opponent's card flips.That's because of the yellow
arrows on the corners and the sides of the cards.If your arrow is
facing in the direction of your opponent's card,that card becomes
yours.But if your opponent's card has an arrows facing yours,a card
battle will begins.
Q:What's a card battle ?
A:When several arrows facing each others,multiple card battles may occur.
You can choose where to begin the card battle when that happen.
Where you can choose to begin the battle affects how the rest of the
battles play out.You can also use combos.
Q:What's a combos ?
A:You gotta becareful during a card game.If your card win against the
opponent's card,all the cards facing that card's arrow are yours.
That's called a combo.It's a double edged sword,because the same
thing happens to you if your card loses against your opponent's card.
Try to play a perfect game.
Q:What's a perfect game ?
A:You get one of your opponent's card when you win.If you flip over all
of your opponent's card and play a perfect game,you can take them
all.Reach for the highest collectors levels !
Q:What's a collector levels ?
Check your menu and go to the section entitled card.You can check
your collection level there.You can level up as you collect more
cards.
Q:How Tetra Master's Card Collector points are scored ?
A:- Having one unique card type: 15 points
- Having a unique card, but has the same arrow arrangement as another card
in your collection: 10 points
- Having more than one of the same card type: 5 points per extra card
- Having a card with level X: 1 point added
- Having a card at level A: 1 point added on top of the point for X level
To get 1700 Card Collector points, you need
all 100 types of cards in 100 unique arrow arrangements (15 x 100 = 1500
pts), and all at level A (2 pts added x 100 = 200 bonus points).
Before you card fanatics start despairing over having 100 arrow
arrangements, you may wanna know that you could have:
- 56 arrangements of 5 arrows- 28 arrangements of 6 arrows
- 8 arrangements of 7 arrows- and of course, 1 card with all arrows
There's 93/100 unique arrangements for ya right there. So you don't have
to worry so much about having lotsa cards that can't into many card battles
cuz of few arrows. ^_^
Thanks to Ferdinand Pelayo for "tetra master collector points
are scored" info !

Special thanks to Leroy (leroygerrits@hotmail.com) for the card list.
There are a 8 total of elemental properties : Fire,Ice,Thunder,Earth,Water,Wind,Holy,
and
Shadow.Applying these elemental properties to your attacks and defense makes battle a
lot
easier.But enemies can take advantage of them as well,so watch out !!
To apply them,you have to understand their natures.
Fire = Effective against Ice & Undead monsters.
Ice = Effective against Insects,Large enemies,Fire,and Dragon-Type monsters.
Thunder = Effective against monsters near water.
Earth = Ineffective against Flying monsters.
Water = Effective against Fire monsters.
Wind = Effective against Flying monsters.
Holy = Effective against Shadow monsters.
Shadow = Effective against Holy monsters.
There is also a non-elemental property,which is not affected by any elemental properties.
Did all that sink in ? It's easy once you get the hang of it.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
=-
Status Effects:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
=-
Status effects refers to character condition.There are good status
effects,and bad status effects,so pay attention ! We'll go over the
bad status effects first.The following status effects go away when
the battle is over.
Confuse = Lose control of your characters.
Berserk = Althrough strength increases,the character can only attack.
Stop = Character cannot move.
Poison = HP Gradually decreases.
Sleep = The character falls asleep,and cannot move
Slow = The ATB gauge fills up slowly
Heat = The terrible burns that cause K.O if you character takes any action
Freeze = The characthers becomes frozen,and get K.O'd if physically attacked.
Mini = The character shrinks which reduces battle power & defense.
Now let's discuss about a very bad status effects that don't go away
after the battle is over.
Petrify = The characther becomes petrified and cannot move
Venom = The character can't gain EXP and AP,and character can't mov
Virus = The character can't gain EXP and AP after the battle because growth is
stunted
Silence = The character can't use magic
Darkness = The character's vision is impaired,and physical attack accurasy is decreased.
Trouble = The damage one character's received transfers to others character.
Zombie = Healing items,and magic cause damage to the characters.
Vanish = The character vanished and cannot be hit by physical attack.
The characthers reappears if hit by magic.
Enough talking about bad stuff,now let discuss about good status effects.
Auto Life = The characther revivies from K.O automatically,once during the battle.
Regen = HP gradually increases.
Haste = ATB gauge fills up faster
Float = The characters float and does not receive any earth damage.
Shell = Damages from magic attacks decreased.
Protect = Damages from physical attacks decreased.
Reflect = Magic is reflected back to the caster.
Remember that if all your party members incur K.O,stop,petrify,or
venom during the battle,it's GAMEOVER ! Also you won't received any EXP
or AP if you're still under K.O,petrify,virus,or zombie status when
the battle ends
When trance occurs the character will transform and your power will
increased while you're under Trance.In addiction to greater attack
power,you'll receive a new battle command.Here are some facts about
trance.
About Trance :
--------------
1.The trance gauge will increases as you take hits from the enemy.
2.The trance gauge doesn't increase if you got hit from other party members.
3.If you gout afflicted by Zombie,the trance gauge will goes down completely.
4.When the trance gauge fills completely,it's party time !
Condition that stop/prevents trance:
------------------------------------
1.End of battle.Trance gauge will goes down to zero.
2.During the battle.Trance gauge decreases to zero as you take actions
during the battle.
You could say that the origin of trance comes from hostility.The
hostile energy of enemy attack induces trance,that's why being attacked
by your allies can't cause trance.By the way,the trance gauge appears
both in battle,and in the status menu,which is under the main menu.
Unfortunately,not everyone can archieve trance,i guess it's only for
the chosen one.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
=-
Icons that appears over the head:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
=-
During your advanture,you'll run into lots of suspicious looking things.
That's when a field icon might popup over you head : "?" or "!"
Press action button when you see the icon and something will happen.
O Confirm
X Cancel
Triangle Switch to next ready characters,when the ATB gauge is full
Square Hold down to clear menu
L1 R1 Select single/multiple targets
L2 Turn the target window on/off
Start Pause
Select Turn on/off help menu
ATB:
----
ATB stands for ACTIVE TIME BATTLE.
Time during battle is managed by the ATB system.There are 2 ATB modes,active and wait.
You can select them in config menu.
ATB mode :
Active -> Always real time,time never stops during the battle
Wait -> Time stops while you selecting magic and items.
If you're a beginner i think you should choose "Wait".Active mode is more for
advanced players.
Damage Point:
-------------
Numbers and details pop up during the battle whenever your HP and MP change.
Numbers appears in 2 different colors -> White and Green.Example :
9999 HP Change
White numbers indicate damage
Green numbers indicate HP recovery
9999 MP MP Change
White numbers indicate loss
Green numbers indicate MP recovery
Miss When attack misses
Critical When you deal greater damage than usual
Death When you get KO'd
Guard When status attacks and elemental attacks have no effect
Order:
------
The order option involves not only the line up,but also the battle position.
There are 2 battle positions : Front and Back row.
Front Row : You can deal big damage with attack,but you can also receive big damage
from attacks.
Back Row : You can only deal a small damage with attack,but you receive less damage
from attacks.
You can change this settings with the order option.You can also switch between the
Front and Back row during the battle,by selecting "CHANGE".If you use magic or
long-range weapons,you can deal just as much damage from the back row as you can
from the front row.In tough battles,adjusting battle positions might save your
character's
life...

Strategy:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
=-
1. Level and AP
In FFIX, if your level is up, the monsters don't get stronger. So if you feel monsters a
little strong, just walk around, have some battles and level up your characters.
Experience is divided into all the characters at the battle. (So if only one character
was alive and beat the monster, he/she will get four times as much experience as usual.)
As for AP, the AP give to each character is decided and never changes.
2. Game Over
Your game is over when all the characters' HP are 0, or all are petrified, or stopped.
So, if your character got these status, you should recover them as soon as possible.
3. Ability
In this game, each character learns abilities by equipping weapons, armors or
accessories.
There are two kinds of abilities, Action ability and Support ability. You can use action
abilities just after you equipped some weapons, but you NEED to set or equip support
abilities.
4. About Boss monsters
In a battle against boss monsters, you will get no experience. Instead, each boss has
some good and rare items. If you can fight on a safe side, let Zidane steal such items.
5. Useful elementary operation
You can reset the game by pushing R1+R2+L1+L2+start+select.
To change of ability window and equip window -- start button
To skip a character -- triangle button (This is very useful. You should skip a healer
such as Garnet or Eiko, until some characters get damaged.)
You can use your magic to all enemies by pushing R1(or L1).
If you want to run away from the enemy, just keep pushing R1+L1. (Sometimes this
requires
much time. Using Zidane's skill will be much better.)

------------------
The Beggining....:
------------------
After the opening FMV,get 47 gil & a potion on the back of the room,
then,light up the candle in the middle of the room.Now you can rename your character.
His default name is Zidane.When you done,you will fight a big huge creature,which is
Zidane boss,Baku.After the battle,Baku will called all of them to the meeting room to
start the meeting.Once he finished to tells you your mission,he will
ask you a question.Choose the second option,and another FMV will shows up.
Now you'll be controlling the black mage.From this starting point,
go south to the next screen.There's a zombie card in the lower-left
corner of the screen,a lizard man card behind the statue,and sabakin card
near the statue.Head west and go back to the starting point.Pick up
2 potion on the left side of the street,then enter the house on the
right.Get 9 gil under the bed in the 1st floor,fang card in the dresser
on the 2nd floor,and potion under the table in the 1st floor.
Leave this house and head north to the next screen.Get 33 gil on the
lower right corner of the screen,and a Goblin card on the lower left
corner of the screen,then enter the bar in the middle of the screen.
Get a Purin card on the lower-left corner of the screen (near the barrel)
,27 gil near the broken stairs,and potion on the lower-right corner of
the screen. Exit the bar and head west to the next screen.There's an item
shop on the upper right corner of the screen.Enter it and get 38 gil in the
lower right corner of the screen,near the junk.Talk to the shopkeeper,
and buy any items (if you want it),once you done,head north to the Event Square.
Talk to the ticket man,and he will recognize that the black mage ticket is fake.

You can talk to the mognet and save your game here.Head right to the Evil forest.

for Zidane.Why ? Because if you fight the enemies here when Vivi & Steiner joined the
party,the EXP you'll get will be splitted for 3 party members (even for 4 party members,
if Garnet joined the party).So this is a good time for zidane to gained some level,since
each Goblin or Fang you kill,you will receive about 23 EXP points.After gained
about 3 or 4 Levels (you can gained more if you want it),save your game,and head back
to the evil forest and go to the upper-right corner of the screen.There you will meet

Follow the path until you reach the cave.Inside the cave you will find Garnet,and you'll
encounter a BOSS battle.

help you.
Then continue the battle as usual and you should win easily.
On your way out from the forest,horde of Plant Spiders will keep chasing the party.
If you encounter those plant spiders,just use Vivi's fire magic to all the enemies
(Press L1),
and they'll die instantly.Head south to the next screen,and you will see another cool
FMV.
That night,all of them will camp on the outskirts of the forest,and Garnet will wakes up.

can't hurt Freya (while she's up in the air),so concentrate your healing to Zidane.
I've win this battle alone,without Freya (she's dead) and i receive about 65 Hunting

After the battle,you'll be taken to the Throne room with Cid Lindbulm.If you win the
tournament,you'll receive 5000 Gil,and a Hunter's bagde.Later,a wounded soldier from
Burmecian kingdom appeared.Freya and Vivi will join the party with Zidane,but Garnet
can't come since the party fears for her safety.So Garnet put a sleeping powder into the
food that they'll eat,and DANG ! All of them fall asleep,off cource except Garnet,and

leave.(NOTE : I recommend you to stock up some healing items first,specially Potion,
Phoenix Down,and Tent.You need them later to heal your party members,since you must
beat the next dungeon without your main healer,Garnet.).
