Final Fantasy IX Hint: Land Spirits Locations
In certain spots of the world map you'll stumble across a couple of friendly monsters. They are land spirits and each of them will make a request from you. Fufilling their request enables you to be able to use the "Attack" command when you are fighting Ozma, who's unlocked in the Chocobo Garden by inspecting a large rock on the upper right hand corner.

You'll get Garnet's strongest Summon, Ark, from defeating Ozma but it is a very hard battle, so be sure you find all the land spirits:

1. Squirrel: Around Dali. Ore stone.

2. Ghost: In front of Treno (but not too far) or around the South Gate. Ore stone.

3. Ladybug: Around the Black Mage Village. Two Ore stones.

4. Yeti: Forest outside Madain Sari. Two Ore Stones.

5. Nymph: Forest near Iifa. Three Ore Stones.

6. Jabberwock: Forest East of Oeivell. Emerald. Feather Suckle: Ice Continent, on the Chocobo tracks. Moonstone.

7. Galda: Forest outside Gizamaluke Cave after climbing rope. Lapis Lazly.

8. Yan: Bile Island (small island near center of map). It will keep running away until you have found all eight other Land Spirits. Diamond.

Final Fantasy IX Hint: Stellazzio Quest
Talk to the lady in the house north of the Treno Combination Shop. She will tell you about a set of thirteen Stellazzio that are spread across the world. Find them all and she will reward you everytime you return. This quest is required if you want to see the game's alternate ending. Here are the zodiac locations:

1. Aries: Dali; In the windmill all the way to be back (not downstairs)

2. Cancer: Burmecia; behind the overturned cart

3. Scorpio: Quan Cave spring

4. Gemini: Fountain at the first screen after you enter Treno; throw coins thirteen times into the fountain.

5. Taurus: Treno; behind the item shop.

6. Virgo: Black Mage Village Inn; around the beds

7. Libra: Madain Sari fountain

8. Leo: Alexandria (after raid); Left Tower near Neptune Statue

9. Sagittarius: Linblum; in the left side of the 3d screen up of the Commercial Square.

10. Capricorn: Dargelo Library; right hand side

11. Aquarius: Ipsen Heritage; right hand pillar at entrance

12. Pisces: Treasure chest inside Invincible.

13. 13th Stellazzio: Return to the Quan Cave that's east of Treno after collecting and returning all 12 coins.

Final Fantasy IX Hint: Get Excalibur I and II
To get Excalibur:
Buy the "Magic Finger" item at the Treno Auction early on. Once you reach Dargelo, give this item to an eldery man you meet there -- and he will give you Excalibur in return.

To get Excalibur II:
This one is way more difficult. You have to get all the way to Hades in under 12 hours. After beating Hades, check the farthest right pillar for the sword.

Final Fantasy IX Hint: Quiz Master

Final Fantasy IX Unlockable: Doomsday Spell

Doomsday is the ultimate spell! You may think if you've got it that it's a waste of time because it damages your allies. Well for Zidane you just have to equip Ninja Gear. For Vivi you have to equip Shadow Armlet. Anyone else just equip Pumice Piece and another Shadow Armlet. Doomsday is better than the summon Ark which you get from pumice piece.

Final Fantasy IX Hint: Cooking with Eiko

Eiko likes Zidane and wants everything to go well, you have to choose which moogle does each job. Choose accordingly:

Who should go fishing? Chimmomo
Who should go dig up potatoes? Momatose
Who should help in the kitchen? Mocha

Final Fantasy IX Hint: Take Lich Down

Cast LIFE on Lich to instantly win the battle.

Final Fantasy IX Hint: Yew XP
You may have heard of the Grand Dragon giving a lot of exp points. Well if you're an adventerer like myself you would discover that there's an island. Where a fiend called Yew waits. They come in either on themselves or in groups of up to 4. They are very hard and you really need Doomsday and armour that protects from it. You will kill them eventually and once you have you'll get more exp points than the Grand Dragon gives you.
