we managed to beat the game in year 12, but we restarted and we've been in year 2 for about a week. doing levels over and over before a cycle restarts really pays off!
we got as far as the final battle in year 12 and we had pretty high level weapons & artifacts but we just couldn't get very far before we'd be dead in one strike. and what sucks is that we hadn't saved before the battle, so we had to go back and lose two other levels we'd fought through.
question: did you do the third cycle of conall curach? it is so frustrating and we've given up a few times already, but we really need the items there. i don't know what we're doing wrong in the boss battle but it's definitely more frustrating than the final battle.
sorry for babbling---aside from my boyfriend and i, we don't know anyone who plays it. & obsessions are more fun when shared.
no need to apologize! FFCC is fun to babble about - i do it as often as i can!
i indeed have gone through the third cycle. zombie dude is definitely a lot more difficult in the third cycle - if you are playing multiplayer, usually have one person in charge of casting cure, clear and life really helps, while the offensive players make sure to cast holy on his undead ass. not only will he be visible, but in his visible state he takes a lot more damage. holy = key.
also, use gravity on the stone sahagins to take them out easier.
