What are you having trouble with? I can't really give any generic tips because I found it pretty easy...

 

I heard it was the hardest boss in the game.

 

 

That fight is very easy if you got high level monsters and Serah herself is of a high level. What level are you?

 

I've maxed out Serah and Noel's levels.

I found Yomi and the other tough enemies harder

[Sora96 17,256]

I did it.

All I need to do now to platinum Final Fantasy XIII-2 is complete the Bestiary. Anyone got a good guide?

[Dio Brando 5,810]

You mean the "Complete the Pokedex"-esque mission in Academia?

 

I couldn't finish this mission at all and just gave up on it

i don't have a guide but i have the platinum in FFXIII-2, if you can tell me which enemy you missed i could try to help

[hatok 6,413]

The biggest thin to keep an eye out for is all the different enemy types in the time period where you fight all those superbosses

Each weather pattern has different enemies

You don't really need a guide. Find a list that has all monster locations in it and just check what you missed.

This is the guide I used before I got the platinum trophy:http://www.playstationtrophies.org/forum/final-fantasy-xiii-2-a/145033-100-bestiary-list.html

[Sora96 17,256]

Did it! Thanks for the help.

[Sora96 17,256]

I have finally platinumed Final Fantasy XIII-2. It took me 78 hours and 53 minutes.

 

In case you missed it, I also finally platinumed Lightning Returns last week. Lightning Returns took me 65 hours and 13 minutes.

 

Here's my PSN: http://psnprofiles.com/Sora9669

[Sora96 17,256]

Thanks.

[advfox 698]

Good job. You must have worked hard. 

[birthbysleep 95]

Congrats.

 

I need all the trophies because i hated my first psn name so i created a 2nd account.

 

but on my first acc i only had 41%

[KH4Real 749]

Nicely done! FFXIII seems really hard to platinum with the 5star rank on boss and finding every treasure.

I'm thinking to platinum lightning returns when I'm going to play it.

Gotta say, platinuming XIII-2 is a much bigger achievement than Lightning Returns

... now do XIII

if you haven't already

Haha. I'm planning on replaying XIII early next year so we'll see.

you need to hold every item

EVERY ITEM

I hear it's hard but I don't see how, I mean all the people who complain about it being linear, shouldn't be hard to get everything.

getting everything involves upgrading items and then disassembling them to get specific items. You also have to upgrade every weapon for every character (not to the ultimate weapon form, you only have to do that once per character because all of the ultimate weapons count as the same type)

Also grinding to max level is a lot harder in XIII then XIII-2

and you have to kill so many Adamantoises

And he has to kill the Long Gui which is redonculous. Plating Xiii-2 was a bitch to do- well I mean in my case it's getting all the acheivements. Especally the Serendipoulous Trophy/Acheivement, you had to put a rubber band on the L1 button to perform 7+ hours of button mashing. I actually had a hard time defeating Caius using the paradox Scope.

[Cyber Shaman 990]

This is late but I still like to post my advice in case others might need it.

First you should max Sarah and equip nothing but Iron Bangels in which it increases your HP by 10%. Then for a weapon you equip the Odin Blade that comes with a skill called Fragment Energy. With Fragment Energy, the weapon's strength and magic increase as the number of fragments you collect.

 

For Monsters, your pardigm Pack should be Commando, Synergist, and Medic. As you've seen, Ravenger is not needed due to caius's Chain Break ability. For commando you equip Ton Berry (You'll find him at Bresha Ruins 300 af) max him out by mainly focusing on his attack and his HP. After maxing him out, find Narashima (Yacshas Massif 1x af) and max him out with Munchkin (Bresha Ruin 300 af) and infuse the two into Ton Berry. His Hp should be 10000 and his strength should be 1163.

 

For Synergist, use Purple Chocobo or Giga Cactar.

 

For Medic, use Caturoni or Cactarama.

 

You pardigms should be:

Commando, Commando

Medic, Medic

Senitel, Medic

Senitel, Synergist

Senitel Commando

Synergist, Synergist

 

For the most part of the fight you'll be stuck in Senitel. You'll notice there's a pattern, before he attacks he activates his Heart of Choas skill and he ends his combo with a big attack. After his combo he'll be open for Ten seconds, you have time to heal and Buff yourself. You'll want to use Senitel and Commando, since Ton Berry had a poison skill, he'll dish alot of damage as he attacks you.
