Here are the top 10 tips/tricks/cheats you need to know for Final Fantasy Record Keeper.
• Final Fantasy Record Keeper is a nostalgia fueled trip that takes you into the most important events of each Final Fantasy release. Grinding it out in the many familiar realms with your chosen party members is the way to go to earn EXP and upgrade your characters. Keep in mind that if you keep certain party members in tow when you hit up certain realms, they gain double EXP. For instance, take Cloud with you to FF7 themed worlds and Squall in FF8 realms. Make sure you equip those appropriate characters with themed world gear, too. Like, FF10 themed gear for for someone like Tidus.
• You should always head into battle with a mage on deck at all times. A Black Mage, Blue Mage, Red Mage or White Mage are essential team members for all battles. Having a White Mage seems to be more of a priority due their use of healing abilities, but keep a powerful magic attack wielder in tow as well. Fill out the rest of your party accordingly once you have the right mages already keyed into position.
• Elite Stages provide the biggest challenges for your cast of characters. Once you complete certain portions of the main game, these difficult stages will pop up. It’s best if you avoid tackling them until you have a party full of level 20, 30 or higher members. There’s no need to waste your stamina on these tough stages beforehand with a weak cast of characters. Elite Stages do gift you with some great crafting material and extra EXP, so keep that in mind when you need some of those goodies to make your party even more of a threat.
• Final Fantasy Record Keeper is pretty much a run through of the most important moments of each main release. In order to make sure you’re fully equipped to handle every boss encounter, it’s best if you check on past guides on each game. The same methods needed to handle those bosses in the main games are the same ones you’ll have to abide by in this mobile game. Before heading into battle, it’s best to read up on each bosses strengths and weaknesses. For instance, the Blue Dragon from FF6 should be targeted with lightning attacks.
• As you acquire more gear throughout the game, you’ll certainly pick up some unwanted weapons and other types of equipment. It’s best to sacrifice those items to make sure your more powerful equipment gets even stronger. Or just go ahead and combine similar 2-star level items to increase their base stats. Any pieces of equipment that come with their own special effects are the types you should hold onto the most, though.
