 This
is game's toughest dungeon. The enemies featured under
this area is extremely tough and you cannot avoid them
even if you equipped GF Diablos' Enc-None party ability.
The Ultima Weapon is a tough boss and you will need
to boost your parties statistics to their optimum. Make
sure you have a couple of Aura spells stocked the inventory.
The ideal party is Squall, Zell and Quistis. Make sure
Squall has the Lion Heart and 255 Str stats. This can
be achieved by junction 100x Ultima to Str-J. As for
Lion Heart, please refer to Weapon Upgrading Section. |
Pilot the Ragnarok back the Deep Sea Research Center. Access
the cockpit and converse with your allies. Bring in Zell to
your party. Land on the helipad. Instead of the glowing pillar
you have seen earlier, you should find a huge hole along with
Save Point. Choose to make your way down the huge thick stem...
There will be a Draw Point near the foot of the trunk containing
Dispel. Steam is gushing
out from the machinery found at the left hand side of the
center. Examine it and you will find that in order to access
the basement, you need to release steam energy from the engine
to activate the door locks. The Reserve Steam Pressure System
has left 20 RSP. The intital door lock requires 4 RSP. You
will be left with 16 blocks of RSP. The floor numbers are
indicated on the back wall.
Enemy Encounter: Torma, Buel, Bomb
The method used will be different as it depends on this following
character:
With Zell
| Floor |
RSP |
Notes |
| 1 |
2 |
The first 4 floors is rather easy. Just
simply move downwards and examine a steam machine and
choose to use the required RSP marked on the left column.
The combination is 2-2-1-1. |
| 2 |
2 |
| 5 |

| 9 |

| Base |
0 |
Pick the 2nd Option "Leave
it to Zell". Zell will able to activate the machine
without using any RSP! |
Going down the Basement without Zell
On the second floor, there are two steam machines. The other
one is located near the stairs. Examine and use 4 RSP. You
will be able to enter the door on the left. In the room, there
is a machine that will replenish back 7 RSP and a
Esuna
Draw Point. Use 1 RSP until you reached the Base and you should
have 14 RSP left. Choose to use the 4 RSP to activate the
steam machine at the basement and you will be able to access
the Deposit like the previous method.
The upcoming battles are tough and you will be challenged
by a huge chord of enemies!
Recommended Party: Squall, Quistis and Zell
Make sure you have Siren's Move-Find ability acquired...

The first screen after you have successfully
reduce the RSP to 10. There is the Save Point |
Take note of the enemy's poison gas attack
as you can handle the physical attacks of the boss with
your 100x Sleep or Blind to ST-Atk-J. Please note that
Tri-Face drops Curse Spike frequently. I would advise
you to get 100x Curse Spikes for Quistis before proceeding
on further. Other monsters found on the World Map does
not drop this item unlike this monster. |
|
|
A screen of spiral stairways |
Take note of the Imp's Holy spell when
it is KO'd. Grendel's Tail Blade does a huge amount
of damage and it will bring characters with low Vit
to instant death. Just make use of Blind or Death to
ST-Atk-J to kill off the enemies instantly. |
|
|
The screen where you find
a statue holding a spear. There is a draw point - Triple |
This is the easiest among
all battles encountered in deposit area. Behemoth can
be killed off instantly with 100x Death to ST-Atk-J!
You can also keep it in Sleep with 100x Sleep to ST-Atk-J.
However, Behemoths focus more on offense than defense.
Behemoths drops Barrier, an item that allows Quistis
to learn Mighty Guard. |
|
|
A long straight path followed a turning
gap at the end. |
Ruby Dragons are extremely tough! If you
encountered one, make sure that everyone's Vit is above
100 or they will be instantly killed off! Do not hestiate
to waste an Aura spell on Quistis. Have her cast Degenerator
for an instantly victory. You can have Quistis start
off the battle with low HP and Initiative equipped.
Junction 100x Blizzarga to Elem-Atk-J. |
|
x2 |
A long path similar to previous one. There
is a short stairs that lead to the bottom of the deposit. |
You will encounter 2 Iron Giants instead
of one if you choose to battle at near Esthar City.
Like the Behemoth, Iron Giants are offensive attackers
and weak defense against status ailments. Equip 100x
Sleep or 100x Blind to ST-Atk-J for your characters.
You will be able to end the battle without losing any
HP most of the time... To make full use of the character's
attacking power, junction 100x Thundaga to Elem-Atk-J. |
At the deposit, Squall will find a monster being embedded
within a crystal. That's is the Ultima Weapon. Equip Siren's
Move-Find Ability and you will find a Save Point where you
can use a Tent and save your game. Make the necessary preparations.
A
GF is awaiting...
Remember to draw Eden from Ultima Weapon before
defeating it! You can get a Three Star if you choose
to mug the boss or you will get 100x Ultima Stones.
Make sure you have a couple of Aura spells in the character's
inventory. Last of all, do not forget Squall's Lion
Heart... |
Once you done with your preparations. Examine the steam machine
on the left and use up the remaining 10 RSP. You will be able
to free the Ultima Weapon from its frozen state and challenge
it!

The Weapon has
a huge arsenal of devastating attacks. Ranging from
a HP depleting Gravija, damaging spells - Meteor and
Ultima and its 9999 HP instant killer weapon - Iron
Pillar.
Make sure that Squall is equipped with the Auto-Haste
ability. Start of the battle by casting Aura on Squall
and Meltdown on the Weapon. Zell should support Squall
in offense and Quistis should be party's healer [Equip
her with Revive and Recover]. Make sure every character
has Life spells stocked. Squall should be executing
Renzoukukens (Limit Breaks) throughout the entire battle.
The boss will definitely use all the mentioned attacks
at least once. Therefore, it means one of your character
is going die indefinitely. Cast Life on that character
or use Revive command. You should be able to finish
it with 2 Lion Heart finishing deathblows along with
3 Renzoukukens... Zell should be also executing his
Limit Breaks (just interchange between Punch Rush and
Booya). Keep up the endurance and you will be able to
defeat the boss in no time!
