Save BEFORE the final battle. When you beat the game it will say that new items are available in the Poachers Den. Reload your save data and there will be the onion equipment amongst other new gear.

Do u have any tips i have been playing for about 4 hours nd i have remza at lvl 5 and everyone else at lvl 3 i feel bad for myself lol but yeah i just finished the fitst dorter fight ( dont no if there are anymore to come during the story) and i really want to get everyone up to lvl 10 befor the next fight.

Well, finished it for the first time last night, and this is easily one of the best games I've ever played. Some of the actual gameplay mechanics I think are a bit archaic, but the story -- wow!

Starting a new game today.

Well, at that early stage in the game, you only have two areas where you can grind. So...get to grinding. There's no other real advice to offer. Try to keep everyone either a squire and/or a chemist until everyone has focus, JP boost, and auto-potion (though auto-potion for everyone isn't completely necessary). With focus, you can wipe out all of the monsters except one on a single battlefield, and then surround the monster; at that point, just keep casting focus and stay healed until you feel you've earned enough JP to get the abilities you want. I wouldn't concern myself too much with your actual character levels so much as the abilities you have. When you're ready to move on to the Dorter Slums, I recommend a knight or two and at least two characters with auto-potion. Follow Delita and Argath along their path and keep them healed, simply because they're useful during the battle.

Ok thanks for the help I will try that now

So I finally want to dive into this game but I'm not sure what platform. I have an iPad 2, iPhone 4S and PSP but I"ve heard negatives for all of them. Anybody have any advice on which platform would provide the best experience? I am leaning iPad, but I remember some anger regarding that version so I'm not sure if I should go iPad or PSP. I know this is the iPhone thread, but I figure I'd have more of a response here.

The iPad version is just a blown up version of the iPhone version. I recall some users saying that there was no visible difference between the iPhone version at 2x and the iPad version.

I went with the iPhone version so I could have it on both my iPhone and iPad.

FFT has always had issue with slowdowns during specials in all versions but it was fixed in the iOS version which makes it the most playable version to date, there was also talk of new retina art (that art would take a lot of time but there is no gauruntee of it happening)

Can anybody confirm the iPad version vs the iPhone version x2? No way I'm spending more $$ and limiting my platform if there isn't an improvement in the look and feel of the iPad specific version.

Check the AppStore reviews of the HD version if no one can confirm (I don't plan on buying the iPad version to test it ). There are lots of one star reviews complaining that the graphics are identical to iPhone at 2x
